The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', which is a different construction where 'opt out of' is followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks the necessary NP object and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

Doherty , Private Cornelius , 12258 Cornelius Doherty , 5th Battalion Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers , was born at Carmoren , County Donegal , enlisted at Bridgeton , Lanarkshire , Scotland , and died at Gallipoli on August 15 , 1915 . He was the son of Mr George Doherty , 72 , Rossville Street , Derry ; the husband of Catherine Doherty , 37 , Wesleyan Street , Glasgow , Scotland ; and the brother of George Doherty , who was serving in France at the time of his brother 's death . Private Cornelius Doherty 's name is recorded on the Helles Memorial , Turkey . Sir Frank Fox in his book The Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers in the World War describes the actions of the 5th Inniskillings on the day of Private Cornelius Doherty 's death : ' On Aug. 15 an attack on Kiretch Tepe Sirt was ordered , and the 5th Inniskillings , whose task was to take Kidney Hill ( with the 6th Inniskillings in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and proved that they had the true spirit of resolved courage of the Regiment .

The slopes of the hill were almost precipitous and covered with thick scrub . There could be no help on this section of the attack from the guns of the Navy and our land artillery was very weak . ' The 5th Inniskillings shortly after noon advanced to the attack and made some progress until the plain at the foot of the hill was reached . Then the advance stopped . The enemy artillery and machine guns had perfect observation of the ground and there was no shelter . The O.C. , Lt.-Col. Vanrenen , was killed ( three days after a party under Cpl .

Capt . Adams , who was in command , sent back word that he would collect our wounded before falling back . To have left them would have been to doom them to almost certain death . ' It was a decision of high courage for this new Battalion , after such stern losses , to hold on for the sake of the wounded . By midnight over 100 men had been rescued , the soldiers carrying them in on ground sheets . But stretcher-bearers could not come up to our line and , led by Capt . Adams and Lt.

The 5th Royal Irish Fusiliers were sent to Gallipoli as part of the 29th Division after a very hasty training period . ' Conditions here were strange to the troops . During the day the heat was almost unbearable and fresh water was a constant problem . Rough rocky terrain meant that trenches could not be dug to any sufficient depth and almost everywhere was in sight of the enemy .

' He had obviously recognised who was on the stretcher . And quite obviously there is no point in carrying a dead man back for treatment so John would have been simply exchanged for someone else . It would help to explain why there is now no known grave . ' The Battalion lost 37 men on this day , many of them to snipers , but also to the incessant heavy firing of the morning .

There is also mention of Nan McDiarmid , whom I take to be John 's daughter , being killed in the Coleraine explosion of 12th June 1973 .

Plungar-based Orchard Farm has opened a brand new on-site butcher shop in the Vale of Belvoir after receiving a ? 16,000 loan from HSBC . Dickies Butchers , which launched in July , will sell home-reared beef , pork , lamb and chicken , as well as locally-produced breads and cheeses , for customers in and around the Vale of Belvoir . The new venture , supported by a flexible business loan from HSBC , will provide a sustained custom for Orchard Farm 's owners , Rich and Charlotte Stevens , who previously reared livestock for private trade and sale at local markets . The HSBC funding has helped Dickies Butchers to install a cold room , buy a refrigerated van and fit out the new shop . It also enabled the company to buy essential equipment for the shop Additionally , Dickies Butchers has been able to hire a master butcher from Leicestershire with over 25 years in the business .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', where 'receiving Cookies' is a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', which is a different construction where 'opt out of' is followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks the necessary NP object and does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction's criteria for movement/extraction or prevention interpretations.

It 's relatively rare to have photographic evidence of a museum item in its original setting , especially when that item was n't owned or used by a high profile person . But here 's a lovely blue-and-white striped towelling beach robe along with a black-and-white snapshot of the donor 's father , the late Charles Stanley Field of Hunmanby , wearing it on his honeymoon on the Isle of Wight in 1934 . Relaxed beachwear like this is a relatively recent innovation -- the seaside holiday , in Scarborough at least , was originally the preserve of the fairly wealthy seeking the health-giving properties of the coast : in our case , the Spa waters discovered by Mrs Thomasin Farrer in the 17th century .

It was n't until the mid-Victorian period that the coming of the railways to Scarborough opened the town up to the masses , but even then , modesty was de rigeur on the beaches . By the early 20th century , however , things were changing -- it was more acceptable to bare some flesh , and as a result , items of clothing like our beach robe , allowing for a quick cover up when demanded by changes in weather or company , became more popular . ' Important ' objects , such as paintings , jewellery or furniture tend to be cared for and preserved carefully for future generations in a way that more disposable things are n't .

" Perhaps one of the most famous collections of purely social history is that of ' consumer historian and supermarket archaeologist ' Robert Opie , who for over 50 years has been collecting and preserving product packaging , that most disposable of all disposable items . And Scarborough Museums Trust has recently taken steps to help the preservation of items from another extremely throwaway arena -- the seaside . Spearheaded by the Trust , but open to any interested organisation or individual , the Seaside Heritage Network aims to promote the value of seaside heritage and culture , further understand and research the British seaside and seaside-related collections , locate custodians of seaside heritage , and share vital knowledge and expertise . The Network is part of a wider Seaside Heritage project being run by Scarborough Museums Trust , which has a small collection of seaside ephemera which it 's hoping to expand .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', where 'receiving Cookies' is a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

02:54Sunday 21 August 2016 Glasgow 's Pride festival has centred around a call for inclusive education in a bid to stamp out discrimination in Scotland 's schools . The theme backs the Time for Inclusive Education ( TIE ) campaign for a government commitment for mandatory teaching of LGBTI issues to tackle high rates of homophobia , biphobia and transphobia in Scottish schools . Thousands of people took part in the annual Pride parade on Saturday and speakers addressed a rally before the start of the march from Glasgow Green . Among the speakers was Scottish Green Party co-convener Partick Harvie who said : " We 've got a local election in just over eight months time .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', which is a different construction where 'opt out of' is followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks the necessary NP object and does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

02:54Sunday 21 August 2016 Glasgow 's Pride festival has centred around a call for inclusive education in a bid to stamp out discrimination in Scotland 's schools . The theme backs the Time for Inclusive Education ( TIE ) campaign for a government commitment for mandatory teaching of LGBTI issues to tackle high rates of homophobia , biphobia and transphobia in Scottish schools . Thousands of people took part in the annual Pride parade on Saturday and speakers addressed a rally before the start of the march from Glasgow Green . Among the speakers was Scottish Green Party co-convener Partick Harvie who said : " We 've got a local election in just over eight months time . " Let 's make sure that none of our parties select candidates for that election that do not support the TIE campaign and that way when we meet here again in a year 's time we 'll know that all of local government in Scotland is backing our justified demands for inclusive education in Scotland . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sturgeon recorded a message , saying : " I know the theme of this year 's event is inclusive education and that for the Scottish Government is so important , making sure that education is a place where we challenge discrimination and allow everybody to flourish .

A couple whose marriage is intertwined with shoe shop Masons ( later Clarks ) have been sharing some of their memories of the store . It comes after Clarks announced two weeks ago it had made a business decision not to renew the lease on the former Masons building . Sue and Bill Kirk , of Wyberton West Road , Boston , first met through the store in 1983 after Sue took back some shoes for store credit . Sue said : " As I left the store , Bill was waiting to see what I had bought and just after that he asked me out and we were wed a year later . " Husband Bill , 63 , who worked for Masons and then Clarks for 40 years from 1969 until 2009 , joked : " She went in with a complaint and came out with a date -- and it was a blooming expensive way @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were wed at Boston Register Office and 32 years later Sue still has those shoes ( boxed ) , the receipt , and the diary entry for when she was due to pick up the shoes . She also has plenty more clippings and branded items from the store , including an umbrella . Bill was employed at Mason 's a week after leaving school and worked for three generations of the Mason family -- William , John and Bob , Tim , Peter and Elizabeth . In that time he learned a lot about the store , some of the history he related to us : l Masons was founded in 1849 . Its first shop was in Church Street before it moved to Strait Bargate . l The store started as only two storeys high but was later built with three . It had the servant 's quarters below ground level and the owners ' accommodation at the top . l There was another major refit after the Second World War when the frontage was moved and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Span Cafe and in the 80s it took over Hopper Jeweller 's former premises . l Masons made shoes for a number of local prominent people of Boston , who each had wooden shoe lasts -- moulds of their feet -- measured out for shoes to be shaped on . The last of these shoes was made for a local garage owner in 1970 . l During the Second World War , a special vulcanised machine was used to repair the wellington boots of local farmers and fishermen due to a shortage of rubber to make new ones .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('he could always wriggle out of being convicted'). The verb 'wriggle' implies a means to achieve a goal (by means of deception or trickery), and the NP object 'he' is coreferential with the subject, which is an atypical but acceptable type of NP object in the transitive out of -ing construction. The interpretation is prevention ('he prevented himself from being convicted by wriggling'), which aligns with the construction's properties.

tomorrow Justice Secretary , Elizabeth Truss , will announce the creation of ' specialist units ' in high security prisons , designed to isolate the most dangerous extremists in custody .
Despite the moves , a source has told the Sunday Express that Choudary is trying to recruit followers among the most hardened criminals in his block . He has been held on remand at the South London prison since last year and now faces 10 more years behind bars after being convicted last month of inviting support for Islamic State . He will be sentenced next month . The source revealed : " He has been pestering people to join him , even non-Muslims . He 's trying to raise an army by getting as many followers as possible . " He 's seen as a hero by many Muslim prisoners , particularly the extremists , and you can hear them talking about him in glowing terms on the wings . " In Belmarsh , the Muslim prisoners generally run things and are feared . He 's being held in ' The Unit ' or the AA Block , home to the most @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ jail . " Yet even though he 's being held in the most secure part of the prison , he 's still approaching people , befriending them and telling them to use his name if they get trouble from Muslim inmates . " GETTY Choudary is being held in a single cell in Belmarsh Prison Choudary is thought to have inspired at least 110 Britons into committing terrorist acts over 20-years , including Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale who hacked soldier Lee Rigby to death in 2013 outside Woolwich Barracks in London . Choudary , a father of five , who milked hundreds of thousands of pounds in benefits , was also linked to the 7/7 terror attacks in the capital in 2005 . He was finally snared by police and tried for inciting support for IS in a series of online lectures . Last night a former member of his trusted circle said he was not surprised Choudary was still trying to recruit followers in jail but said beyond the smirk , his ego would be shattered . GETTY The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , a former member of the Al-Muhajiroun organisation Choudary once led , said : " One would hope that this time will give him some critical introspection but that 's a long shot . " Knowing Anjem , he will just carry on propagating within the confinements of his prison cell if he has the chance . " There 's no doubt that he 's going to be seen as a martyr by extremists and he will spin this as a victory -- that somehow this is a deficiency of man-made laws and the West . " But this will be a major blow to him because prison is the last place he would have wanted to end up . " After 20 years he developed a kind of cockiness that he could always wriggle out of being convicted . But because he had to show his hand and his support for the Islamic State , I think he was caught between a rock and a hard place . Now he 's paying the price . " His ego must be hurt big time but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and propagate as much as he can . " GETTY Choudary is thought to have inspired 110 Brits to commit terror attacks Mr Deen left Al-Muhajiroun in 2003 after eight years , having become disillusioned with their beliefs and is now head of outreach at counter-extremism think tank The Quilliam Foundation . The Government is set to announce tomorrow that prisoners such as Choudary will receive targeted management in secure units as part of a landmark review of Islamist extremism in British jails . Ms Truss said : " The rise of Islamist extremism poses an existential threat to our society . I am committed to confronting and countering the spread of this poisonous ideology behind bars . " Preventing the most dangerous extremists from radicalising other prisoners is essential to the safe running of our prisons and fundamental to public protection . " |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase 'receiving Cookies', but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Therefore, it does not qualify as an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Being tickled is ... funny . I write as a person who has n't lifted their arms above 45 degrees in 30 years for fear of a rogue hand sneaking into my sleeve and wiggling . A new documentary , one of the standout films at this year 's Sundance festival , confirms the dark side of tickling . New Zealand journalist David Farrier , a man who has made a career out of " looking at the weird and bizarre side of life " , noticed ads popping up in his timeline , asking : " Are you ticklish ? " He followed them to a series of videos showing scenes of " competitive endurance tickling " . Young men in Adidas are restrained at the wrists and ankles , and tickled until they ca n't take it any more . When Farrier contacted Jane O'Brien Media , the company behind the videos , who advertise for young athletes to compete ( if successful , they 're flown to LA and paid $1,500 ) , he received a Facebook message . " To be brutally frank , " it wrote , " association with a homosexual journalist is not something @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ legal consequences should he pursue his investigation . Tickling was , they said , a " passionately and exclusively heterosexual athletic endurance activity " . So Farrier bought a plane ticket . He followed the videos , in his attempts to find out more about Jane O'Brien Media . Their website opens with a recruitment video of the type you 'd find when browsing LinkedIn for jobs in world domination and web design . Farrier went deep into the world of tickling . Side note : there is a world of tickling . He met men who reported being doxxed -- threatened with online exposure -- after saying they no longer wanted to participate in competitive tickling ( some having been told the tickling videos were for the military to test tickling as a torture device ) . They alleged that Jane O'Brien Media created websites containing their name and address , alongside videos of them tied up and breathless . Jane O'Brien Media denies this . In the film all roads lead to a single wealthy man , shielded by cash and threats of litigation -- an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in 2001 after committing cyber crimes as retaliation against a teenager who 'd ended their tickle video business relationship . D'Amato went by the name Terri Tickle . Our most ticklish areas are also our weakest -- neck , stomach -- where we 're soft and honest . I looked it up . In 2013 , scientists in Germany investigated tickling , looking at MRIs of a brain when a person laughs at something they find funny , and then when they 're tickled . They found that tickling activates the part of our brain that anticipates pain . When you tickle someone , you 're stimulating the same nerves that make you want to run away from danger . Which is why you ca n't tickle yourself -- your body knows there 's nothing at stake . The film is one of those that ruins nice things for you . The lights go down on an audience that enjoys the intimacy of a sly tickle , that sees the laughter as pure and joyful . They leave with their balloons popped . I am a guilty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ comes from the very unlikeliness of having created a whole other human , one with their own voice and armpits . But like much of my new life , full of potential allergies and heatwaves , it often releases little bubbles of concern . Am I forcing her to laugh , is the pleasure only mine ? It 's no surprise that tickling has a sinister side -- since we were children we 've known the torture of being caught . But this film plays it out to a painful conclusion , meaning all innocence is lost . In the film -- which the company says contains numerous inaccuracies -- tickling is revealed as a means of control and sadism , despite the participants ' consent . The audience returns home , spoiled for ever . I have n't tickled my child since . Watching this film , with its scenes of the restrained boy being videoed , its lawsuits and its use of societal homophobia as a weapon against participants , is a disquieting and frustrating experience . The worst thing though , is that watching people cracking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , really makes you laugh . You ca n't help it . Like being tickled , perhaps , the danger bit of your brain clicks in and you hold your hand over your mouth and try to keep control . It 's agony . |

in Ayr
In the beginning we gathered around a warm fire to listen to stories , then we learned to read and write from which books were produced culminating in fictional tales for our enjoyment . Well modern television with its excellent picture quality has to some extent taken the place of a book , but never dismiss a good book .

In the beginning we gathered around a warm fire to listen to stories , then we learned to read and write from which books were produced culminating in fictional tales for our enjoyment . Well modern television with its excellent picture quality has to some extent taken the place of a book , but never dismiss a good book .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'make a career out of competing and playing games', where 'competing and playing games' is the activity from which a career is made, not a causee being acted upon by a causer. There is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

Competitive video game playing ( also called eSports ) is not a new phenomenon , and video game competitions can be traced all the way back to the 1970s . However , those competitive Space Invaders and Pac-Man players would balk at what today has become a half-a-billion-dollar industry . While back in the day at your local arcade you may have won some free tokens as your prize , the purses at the biggest gaming events now regularly exceed $1 million . Instead of playing in front of a few of your friends , everyone from ESPN to the BBC is now covering eSports and an estimated 36 million people tuned in for the 2015 League of Legends championships final . And like any legitimate sport , eSports has even had its own doping scandals . The games that draw the biggest prizes and brightest players change from year to year , but one of the mainstays of the scene is the FIFA series . A pillar of the sports game genre since 1993 , in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ FIFA 16 was the top-selling console game of any genre in the UK . The nearly 7 million copies sold worldwide ( for PS4 ) was only bested by Call of Duty : Black Ops III , also a massively popular eSports title . FIFA is n't just popular in traditional footballing nations ; the series has become such a global phenomenon that some even credit it as being a catalyst for the boom of soccer popularity in America . The game 's annual FIFA Interactive World Cup ( FIWC ) is recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the world 's largest online gaming tournament , with over 2 million players registering in recent years and $20,000 in prize money going to the winner . Fans from around the world can even tune in to FIFA.com to watch the tournament 's final matches be played live . FIFA 12 remains the fastest-selling sports game , selling over 3 million copies and making $186 million in its first week . But Those sums have only continued to grow and LA-based equity researcher @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , FIFA generates around $1 billion for EA . " PH But EA , broadcasters , and the players themselves are n't the only ones profiting off eSports . Never to miss out on where there is money to be made , major football clubs are now signing players and teams to represent them on eSports ' biggest stages . Within the past year , clubs like Manchester City , West Ham , and Sporting Lisbon have all signed some of the top FIFA players in the world . Similar to how European sports clubs might have handball , volleyball , and other sporting clubs aside from their football team , eSports teams within these clubs are becoming a reality . For those that follow competitive FIFA , these are signings as big as any January transfer window move : Sporting Lisbons ' signing , Francisco Cruz , became the youngest FIFA World Champion ever in 2011 at the age of 14 . West Ham 's , Sean " Dragonn " Allen , was the runner up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ million entrants . In exchange for undisclosed amounts of money , and in the case of Allen , his own official club number and jersey , clubs receive international brand exposure . " I 'm going to livestream on Twitch , I 'm going to be making videos for Manchester City 's YouTube channel and I 'm going to be playing some City fans and representing City in future tournaments , which I 'm looking forward to , " said Manchester City 's recent eSports signing Kieran " Kez " Brown to Sky Sports . " This is an opportunity which not many people get the chance to do and I could n't turn it down . " West Ham Sean " Dragonn " Allen was recently signed by West Ham " E-sports betting is a niche but growing industry " David Sheldon , Casino.org Considering that both the money involved in eSports and the global popularity of FIFA continue to grow , one can only expect that major football clubs are only going to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and German club Schalke , for instance , have already signed successful League of Legends teams . Many think that there may even be enough interest to one day establish a FIFA Premier League , Champions League , and so on for the world 's ' best players to compete in . Even spectators and fans stand to make money off eSports . You can now wager on the results of eSports matches , as almost all major online sportsbooks now offer betting lines on pro gaming competitions . Since at least 2014 , online bet shops have offered lines on the winner of the FIWC , too . If betting on people playing video games sounds ridiculous , just consider that if you had placed a small ? 20 wager on eventual 2014 winner August Rosenmeier , you would have walked away from the window with ? 166 . David Sheldon , an editor at Casino.org tells us : " E-sports betting is a niche but growing industry . It 's developed almost from nothing into a quickly emerging market for the gambling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ especially compared to poker or sports betting , we 're seeing many more young gamblers getting involved . " And earlier this week , EA announced a new $1.3 million eSports initiative for their FIFA Ultimate Team franchise , dubbed the FUT Championship Series . In short , players will be able to compete in a new game mode known as the ' FUT Champions ' and each week players can compete within a variety of challenges and competitions for the chance to earn a coveted spot in the brand new ' Weekend Leagues ' . Once in the ' Weekend Leagues ' , players have the opportunity to battle for in game items and those elite players at the top of the FUT Champions monthly leaderboards will earn an invite to one of six Regional Finals , with the goal of attending the FIFA Interactive World Cup . It 's hard to tell if eSports is going to simply be another poker-type boom that lasts only around five years , or grow into something greater . And for those that were n't gifted with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ plan for that wish to make a career out of competing and playing games . Either way , with the amount of money at stake it 's clear that if the popularity of eSports does eventually fade , it wo n't be overnight . As more and more industries and companies figure out how they too can make money off this soon-to-be billion-dollar industry . The smart play seems to be for you to try and do the same , whether that 's as an investor , bettor , or even as a punter . |

Hockey gold medallist ... Richardson-Walsh was named as Great Britain 's flag bearer for the closing ceremony . Richardson-Walsh and wife Helen became the first same-sex married couple to win an Olympic gold in the same final in the historic victory over the Netherlands . On a spectacular penultimate night , Mo Farah scooped the " double double " of gold in the 5,000 and 10,000 metres in both London and Rio Farah - who celebrated his win with his trademark Mobot - said the accomplishment was " every athlete 's dream " as he dedicated each of the four medals to his children . The athletes have been widely hailed for their outstanding performance and the Prime Minister pledged to continue supporting British sport .

If her two children had n't been so keen to have a puppy , Linslade mum Annie Rourke might never have become involved with the charity Dogs for Good . Her electrical engineer husband Stuart did n't want an animal in the house but the kids were desperate . And it was they who suggested it . She explains : " If you become a puppy socialiser , you hand the dog back after about a year . It then goes for 16 weeks assistance training , to help adults and children with a range of disabilities and children with autism . " ? And she smiles as she recalls getting their first puppy four years ago : " It took Stuart about five minutes to fall in love with her . " She 's now socialising Neave , a six-month-old Golden Retriever/Labrador cross -- one of two dogs sponsored by the Rotary Club of Leighton and Linslade . Annie , 53 , of Lomond Drive , says : " They have to lead a normal puppy life and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lifts , buses and trains . And they ca n't be afraid of loud noises . They have to be able to ignore sirens and other sounds and remain calm and well behaved . " When they 're about 15 months old , they go to the Dogs for Good centre in Banbury for 16 weeks intensive training before being matched with someone who needs them . " Children who have autism , who are non-verbal , start talking to the dog , then to an adult or a child . They communicate through the dog and start communicating generally . It 's heartwarming to see . " And people who do n't go out because of their disability gain new confidence . These dogs can take laundry in and out of a washing machine , open and close doors and drawers , press buttons at pelican crossings . " So although it 's difficult giving up the puppy you 've loved since it was about seven weeks old , you know it 's going to go on to do amazing things . " And @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us how well our puppy is doing in training and introduce us to the family they 're matched with . And by then you 've probably got another puppy to worry about anyway .

If her two children had n't been so keen to have a puppy , Linslade mum Annie Rourke might never have become involved with the charity Dogs for Good . Her electrical engineer husband Stuart did n't want an animal in the house but the kids were desperate . And it was they who suggested it . She explains : " If you become a puppy socialiser , you hand the dog back after about a year . It then goes for 16 weeks assistance training , to help adults and children with a range of disabilities and children with autism . " ? And she smiles as she recalls getting their first puppy four years ago : " It took Stuart about five minutes to fall in love with her . " She 's now socialising Neave , a six-month-old Golden Retriever/Labrador cross -- one of two dogs sponsored by the Rotary Club of Leighton and Linslade . Annie , 53 , of Lomond Drive , says : " They have to lead a normal puppy life and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lifts , buses and trains . And they ca n't be afraid of loud noises . They have to be able to ignore sirens and other sounds and remain calm and well behaved . " When they 're about 15 months old , they go to the Dogs for Good centre in Banbury for 16 weeks intensive training before being matched with someone who needs them . " Children who have autism , who are non-verbal , start talking to the dog , then to an adult or a child . They communicate through the dog and start communicating generally . It 's heartwarming to see . " And people who do n't go out because of their disability gain new confidence . These dogs can take laundry in and out of a washing machine , open and close doors and drawers , press buttons at pelican crossings . " So although it 's difficult giving up the puppy you 've loved since it was about seven weeks old , you know it 's going to go on to do amazing things . " And @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us how well our puppy is doing in training and introduce us to the family they 're matched with . And by then you 've probably got another puppy to worry about anyway .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes someone being 'run out of boxing' by others, which does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate or the specific interpretations (movement/extraction or prevention) associated with the construction.

out in a defensive crouch . Over slow-motion images of two men beating the snot out of each other , Robert De Niro intones a lazy argument that boxing is , in fact , an art . That 's a conversation for another day , but one thing is for certain : this tone-deaf biopic of the Panamanian prizefighter Roberto Dur ? n , made in conjunction with the Panamanian Film Commission , is about as subtle and welcome as a blow to the head .
Using brute screenwriting force , Hands of Stone creates a parallel story between Dur ? n ( ? dgar Ram ? rez , doing the best he can ) and his coach , Ray Arcel ( De Niro , phoning it in ) . By the time the two meet , after a Madison Square Garden fight , Dur ? n is already on the rise . He is a natural fighter , but lacks discipline . His power stems from his rage , much of it anti-American . Can he learn to swallow his pride and work with this septuagenarian gringo ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ virtuous man driven only a by a pure love of this noble sport ( you know , dudes in their underwear giving each other concussion ) , Arcel was run out of boxing by the local " wiseguys " . The criminal underworld is represented by flashes of John Turturro , lit by ominous streetlamps , reminding Arcel " We run things ! " It 's such a parody , one expects to hear the Saturday Night Live audience laughing after each line . But join forces Dur ? n and Arcel do , and their training sessions are n't that bad . Wisely , director Jonathan Jakubowicz lets the images do the talking . Kudos to Ram ? rez for somehow making Dur ? n likable in the first half of this film . He 's cocky and rude and a scene in which he harasses a schoolgirl could be shown to sex offenders undergoing court-ordered counselling . Naturally the young woman ( played by Ana de Armas ) ends up becoming his wife . A montage shows her birthing five children , but the next sequence shows @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shirt . Movies ! Dur ? n 's career plateaus in 1980 with his first fight against Sugar Ray Leonard ( a very charismatic Usher ) , but it 's here where Hands of Stone 's portrayal pivots from inadvertently obnoxious to intentionally so . ( The boxer 's strategy to defeat Leonard included being rude to Leonard 's wife . ) Boxing historians may thrill to the contract negotiations between Dur ? n 's untrustworthy business manager ( Rub ? n Blades ) and Don King ( Reg E Cathey ) , but most audiences wo n't be on the edge of their seats during each negotiating turn planning the Leonard rematch . Late in the game , Hands of Stone hits the panic button and forces some sympathy : Dur ? n grew up poor , so it 's only understandable that he acts like a prick to his family and friends . " He was hungry ! Let him eat ! " De Niro shouts , in what feels like placeholder dialogue that somehow made the final cut . This is meant to mitigate Dur @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ second Leonard fight ( when the boxer shouted " No more " and ended the fight in the eighth round ) . One probably has to do that when you have the man himself helping you with publicity for the film . ( Somewhere in hell they are planning a double feature of Hands of Stone with the Pel ? biopic Birth of a Legend . ) But forget good storytelling ; even as a business venture , Hands of Stone is a failure . It was financed in part by the Panama Film Commission , ostensibly a government-funded programme that , one would assume , wants to boost tourism . Yet the film manages to make Panama look like a dirty , angry place that no one would ever want to visit . This is n't to say Dur ? n 's upbringing was n't troubled , but the way Jakubowicz shoots scenes of blond Americans laughing as they rip up the Panamanian flag is simply ludicrous . One sees film-making like this and can only say : no m ? s. @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks a clear NP object that functions as a causee, and the phrase 'out of caring for your health' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the sentence does not involve a verb that fits the semantic classifications for V1 in the transitive out of -ing construction.

Fresh grass remains the most cost-effective feed for livestock , and with low milk prices farmers such as Robert and Mark Cunningham from Aghadowey , are focused on utilising grass with the aim of reducing costs and increasing the profit margin per cow . The father and son team run a commercial Holstein and British Friesian dairy herd which is milked using two Lely Astronaut A4 milking robots . The robots were installed in February 2015 , and this is the second summer they have used Lely 's Grazeway system to manage their herd at grass . The farm is hosting a Lely Open Day to demonstrate just how easy it is to manage cows at grass using a robotic milking system . The event takes place on Tuesday 30th August and runs from 11am to 4pm . Mark said : " This is a dry farm so its makes practical and economic sense to let the cows out . They can cut their own grass and spread their own slurry . " Mark spent twelve months researching the fundamentals of robotic milking . " Our parlour @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over the years . It was time for a change , and with labour restrictions , especially at weekends , we decided to invest in robotic technology . " We looked at several brands , but Lely has a strong presence in this area . In fact , north Antrim boasts the highest concentration of Lely robots in the British Isles ! " Currently milking 92 cows Mark is pleased with his investment . " The cows adjusted quickly to the new system , and we have seen a significant rise in milk production . " The herd 's average was under 8,000 litres and is now projected at over 10,400 litres per cow . " We calved 32 heifers last year and they responded very well to robotic milking . " Robert and Mark combine grazing and zero grazing in their daily management routine . They have been zero grazing since early April and feeding TMR at night . Once the first cut silage was harvested and the regrowth satisfactory , they let the cows out to grass . " The cows @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ during the day , and house the cows at night and zero graze . " There are 65 acres around the yard and the system is working well . It represents a significant saving in concentrate usage , " added Mark . " Grass growth is up and down with the weather , but we are achieving intakes of 19 to 21 kilos of dry matter per day . " Zero grazing at night reduces the risk of poaching the ground , and overall the grass is easier managed . The cows are healthier , and there are fewer foot problems , even though some of our fields are up to half a mile away . " The robots take the strain out of Mark 's daily routine , allowing him to concentrate on chores around the yard and in the fields . " I have more time for jobs such as fencing , sowing fertiliser and spreading slurry , which reduces our contracting expenses . The robots also offer greater flexibility , giving me more time to spend with my wife and our three @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ robots work away , and the cows are currently averaging 2.6 visits per day . This increases to 3.2 visits when the cows are housed in the wintertime . Lely 's T4C computer software is simple and easy to use , and I can access a host of herd management information . " The herd calves all year round , with Robert and Mark aiming to breed medium sized ' cubicle ' cows , with good yields and components . The cows are fed to yield , receiving concentrates to a maximum of 12 kilos per head per day . There are two rations distributed through the robot : a 16% protein nut for fresh calved cows , and a 15% nut which compliments the grazed grass . The ration is adjusted during the winter housing period , depending on silage quality . Jim Irwin from Lely Center Eglish said : " There is strong belief that milking robots are only suitable for herds that are housed continuously . Margins remain tight on farms , and feed efficiency and herd health are key when it comes to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ grazing . Visitors to the open day will have an opportunity to see how Lely 's Grazeway system works in tandem with its milking robots . " The farm is situated at 43 Knockaduff Road , Aghadowey , Coleraine , BT51 4DB . It will be signposted from Culcrow School on the Curragh Road , which is the main route between Kilrea and Coleraine . Further details from Jim Irwin on 07827 884 639 .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', where 'receiving Cookies' is a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

Fresh grass remains the most cost-effective feed for livestock , and with low milk prices farmers such as Robert and Mark Cunningham from Aghadowey , are focused on utilising grass with the aim of reducing costs and increasing the profit margin per cow . The father and son team run a commercial Holstein and British Friesian dairy herd which is milked using two Lely Astronaut A4 milking robots . The robots were installed in February 2015 , and this is the second summer they have used Lely 's Grazeway system to manage their herd at grass . The farm is hosting a Lely Open Day to demonstrate just how easy it is to manage cows at grass using a robotic milking system . The event takes place on Tuesday 30th August and runs from 11am to 4pm . Mark said : " This is a dry farm so its makes practical and economic sense to let the cows out . They can cut their own grass and spread their own slurry . " Mark spent twelve months researching the fundamentals of robotic milking . " Our parlour @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over the years . It was time for a change , and with labour restrictions , especially at weekends , we decided to invest in robotic technology . " We looked at several brands , but Lely has a strong presence in this area . In fact , north Antrim boasts the highest concentration of Lely robots in the British Isles ! " Currently milking 92 cows Mark is pleased with his investment . " The cows adjusted quickly to the new system , and we have seen a significant rise in milk production . " The herd 's average was under 8,000 litres and is now projected at over 10,400 litres per cow . " We calved 32 heifers last year and they responded very well to robotic milking . " Robert and Mark combine grazing and zero grazing in their daily management routine . They have been zero grazing since early April and feeding TMR at night . Once the first cut silage was harvested and the regrowth satisfactory , they let the cows out to grass . " The cows @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ during the day , and house the cows at night and zero graze . " There are 65 acres around the yard and the system is working well . It represents a significant saving in concentrate usage , " added Mark . " Grass growth is up and down with the weather , but we are achieving intakes of 19 to 21 kilos of dry matter per day . " Zero grazing at night reduces the risk of poaching the ground , and overall the grass is easier managed . The cows are healthier , and there are fewer foot problems , even though some of our fields are up to half a mile away . " The robots take the strain out of Mark 's daily routine , allowing him to concentrate on chores around the yard and in the fields . " I have more time for jobs such as fencing , sowing fertiliser and spreading slurry , which reduces our contracting expenses . The robots also offer greater flexibility , giving me more time to spend with my wife and our three @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ robots work away , and the cows are currently averaging 2.6 visits per day . This increases to 3.2 visits when the cows are housed in the wintertime . Lely 's T4C computer software is simple and easy to use , and I can access a host of herd management information . " The herd calves all year round , with Robert and Mark aiming to breed medium sized ' cubicle ' cows , with good yields and components . The cows are fed to yield , receiving concentrates to a maximum of 12 kilos per head per day . There are two rations distributed through the robot : a 16% protein nut for fresh calved cows , and a 15% nut which compliments the grazed grass . The ration is adjusted during the winter housing period , depending on silage quality . Jim Irwin from Lely Center Eglish said : " There is strong belief that milking robots are only suitable for herds that are housed continuously . Margins remain tight on farms , and feed efficiency and herd health are key when it comes to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ grazing . Visitors to the open day will have an opportunity to see how Lely 's Grazeway system works in tandem with its milking robots . " The farm is situated at 43 Knockaduff Road , Aghadowey , Coleraine , BT51 4DB . It will be signposted from Culcrow School on the Curragh Road , which is the main route between Kilrea and Coleraine . Further details from Jim Irwin on 07827 884 639 .

A Wigan man who subjected a woman friend to a terrifying attack and ransacked her home has been sentenced to eight months ' imprisonment . Shaun Stockton had admitted those offences at the start of his trial , but he had denied more serious allegations including one of rape . And after the evidence was put to a trial the Atherton 25-year-old was found not guilty by a jury of the rape allegation along with the charges he faced of false imprisonment , making a threat to kill and two assaults causing actual bodily harm , all involving the same female acquaintance . Sentencing him , Judge Brian Cummings , QC , said that as Stockton has been remanded in custody since January , the sentence meant that he would now be due to be released from prison . But the judge pointed out that Stockton will be on licence for 12 months and he imposed a five-year restraining order to keep away from the woman , who can not be named for legal reasons . Breach of the licence can mean his immediate return to the cells . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that on January 23 this year Stockton was at the woman 's first floor home in Atherton .

She had left to go to a neighbour 's home in order to alert the police of what had happened to her . And while she was out Stockton took the opportunity to ransack the address , although the value of damage was unknown , said Mr Biddle . The woman had claimed that Stockton had raped her and kept her prisoner in her own home .

Stockton left the scene after ransacking her home , but returned once again only to be promptly arrested by police whom the victim had called from the neighbour 's home .

The court heard that Stockton , of Windermere Avenue , Atherton , has previous convictions for assault , harassment , possessing an offensive weapon and aggravated vehicle-taking . Paul Treble , defending , said that Stockton , who has a young son , had become addicted to alcohol and crack cocaine and he admitted that he had behaved badly . The incident has been " a wake-up call " for him and he has spent eight months on remand , he added .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'Taking the hassle out of renting' where 'hassle' is an NP complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and 'renting' is not a VP[-ing] predicate but a gerund functioning as a noun. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'takes the hassle out of renting', where 'renting' is part of a noun phrase rather than a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either movement/extraction or prevention.

Renting out your home while you 're on holiday , or your spare room for a night , is a popular way of making some extra money but what happens if you 're on holiday in Italy and your renters call because the washing machine has broken and the kitchen flooded ? Calling an emergency plumber is the first port of call but if you 've got no phone signal , and you 're being charged through the roof for the work , the hassle of making that extra ? 200 can seem a bit too much like hard work . This is where the website Airsorted comes into play as it promises to take the hassle out of the process - for a fee . We take a look at how it works , who uses it and what it costs to decide if it 's worth using . Taking the hassle out of renting : Airsorted does all the work for youo when renting on Airbnb - for a fee The sharing economy is booming and websites such @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ owners making a little extra money and travellers looking for somewhere unique to stay . In the past year 2.2 million people used Airbnb to visit the UK and 3.1 million Britons used the site while on holiday . It was even mentioned in this year 's budget as former chancellor George Osborne announced an extra tax break for those renting out their spare rooms of ? 1,000 per year while the rent-a-room scheme increased it 's tax-free allowance to ? 7,500 . Set up in February 2015 by James Jenkins-Yates , Airsorted is a relative minnow in the sharing economy world and currently operates in London , Edinburgh and Dublin . It describes itself as premium Airbnb management which helps its users secure a higher income from renting out their place . Airsorted takes the hassle out of renting on Airbnb but is the fee worth it ? Members sign up to the site and commit to renting out their homes for at least eight weeks per year , and in return Airsorted manages the booking . This @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a lock box for the keys , arranging cleaners and new bed linen and being on hand during the rental period in case anything goes wrong . It also says it has a wide-range of data to ensure the property is listed at the highest price possible and monitors factors such as local events and the average rental rate to ensure the owners are charging the correct price . Mr Jenkins-Yates said ' we have a set pricing structure for events and season ability to ensure the property is set at the right price . ' In return users pay Airsorted 12 per cent of their earnings . The average Airbnb host in the UK makes ? 2,000 a year renting their place out for 46 nights . Take off the Airsorted fee and this drops to ? 1,760 which for someone using the site specifically to make extra money is quite a large cut wiped off . Mr Jenkins-Yates acknowledges that while it is possible to arrange for someone to rent out your place while you 're not there , using the site makes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 're away for a long period of time . Most of the members live away from their properties , or are on extended breaks , such as one man who is currently travelling around the world and using the income from renting out his own home to pay for his travels . Airbnb is booming but is it worth paying a different company to manage your Airbnb bookings ? The reason most people use the site is for peace of mind and taking out the hassle of being contacted while away to sort out a broken washing machine , or a renter who has lost the keys and been locked out . Sorting out these kinds of problems if you 're abroad can be stressful and expensive and this is where Airsorted fills a gap in the market . ' If there 's an issue such as a burst pipe the renter can contact us and we 'll organise speaking to the host and fixing the problem if they want us to . ' he says . The website is relatively new and has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the 52,500 people who rented out their home on Airbnb last year , this figure suggests it 's attracting a very niche market . An Airbnb spokesperson told us : ' The vast majority of Airbnb hosts are regular people who share their homes to pay the bills and make ends meet ; 85 per cent of UK hosts share their permanent home and the typical host earns ? 2,000 a year by sharing their place for 46 nights . ' With a key safe , cleaner and friend on standby , Carly asks why would anyone pay for a management company on Airbnb ? Carly Nazarian , 32 , from London has rented out the flat she shares with her husband Rob , 30 , on Airbnb for the past three years . They make an average of ? 4,000 per year and says there would be no point in them paying a separate company to manage their bookings as it 's easy enough to do it themselves . ' We 're lucky with our flat as the set-up is relatively easy to use with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ easily so there 's no need to pack away all our belongings every time we 're away . We 're also pretty relaxed about sharing our home if someone wants to rent out the spare room for an evening , but I do n't think it would work for everyone .

Grantham A&E after only four posts advertised by hospital trust
A protest group says it is concerned that the closure of A&E at Grantham Hospital will become permanent . SOS Grantham Hospital has questioned how seriously United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust is trying to recruit enough staff to make sure the A&E is reopened overnight in three months ' time . The trust closed A&E last week from 6.30pm to 9am on a temporary basis , saying it needed to boost staff numbers at its hospitals in Boston and Lincoln where there was a " staffing crisis " . Chairman of SOS Grantham Hospital Charmaine Morgan said : " Given the ULHT promise the situation is only ' temporary ' , a further question has been raised over how urgently ULHT are seeking to recruit an appropriate number of A&E medium grade doctors . " It was identified that a recent job advertisement has been posted by the Trust only for a total of four vacancies in Pilgrim and Lincoln Hospitals . ULHT had stated nine posts must be filled across the Trust to enable Grantham Hospital @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ provide evidence that they have advertised the five additional posts required . " ULHT has been asked for a comment on the concerns of SOS Grantham Hospital . Meanwhile , Coun Morgan thanked those who have supported the protest by signing a petition and taking part in vigils outside the hospital . Councillor Morgan said : " In light of the awful news that ULHT planned to close our A&E unit between 6.30pm and 9am , the response from our community has been tremendous with people rallying round to act to defend our A&E . There has been some confusion caused by ULHT stating Grantham Hospital does n't treat certain trauma cases and therefore was not a proper A&E unit . To clarify Grantham A&E unit services were reduced after the last public consultation , but has successfully continued to provide vital life-saving stabilising support to critically ill patients , who may , or may not , be subsequently transferred to other hospitals for further treatment . The loss of this vital service is putting local lives at risk . Also , local people are entitled to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ can not get to Lincoln , Nottingham or Peterborough at night . " The online petition has now attracted more than 10,000 signatures . More than 1,300 paper copies have so far been returned and more petition forms are going out into the community . Further petition forms may be obtained from the Journal , Cussells Jewellers or by request to Charmaine Morgan . Councillor Morgan said : " The number of people signing our petition and comments made show the huge support this legal action has . Our community feels betrayed by United Lincolnshire Hospital Trust who have failed to make adequate provision for A&E services for the 120,000 people in the Grantham Hospital catchment area in the evening and night time . By their own account over 28 people on average walk into our A&E at night and a further eight attend by ambulance . We anticipate an increase in people , seeking help just before 6.30pm and more people attending A&E first thing . However critically ill people , for whom ' time is of the essence ' , will be left at risk as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ been advised that it is of national importance that their action does not go unchallenged as other Trusts facing financial difficulties are tempted to do likewise . If everyone who signs our petition donates at least ? 1 we will achieve our campaign target .

A Facebook account covers the tragic loss of a local grandfather who had a heart attack Thursday night and a second heart attack on the way to Lincoln Hospital . " Weekly vigils will take place every Wednesday at Grantham Hospital between 6pm and 9.30pm . All members of the community , local councillors and Nick Boles MP have been invited to attend .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'contract out of using the new arbitration law' involves 'contract out of' followed by a gerund, but the overall structure does not align with the transitive out of -ing construction as defined. There is no clear causer and causee relationship, and it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'contract out of using the new arbitration law' involves an NP ('the new arbitration law') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes the goalkeeper walking out of training, which is a simple action without the causative or preventive interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'walking out of training' does not involve a causee or a VP2[-ing] predicate that would fit the construction's requirements.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'walking out of training' involves an intransitive verb 'walking' with no NP object, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the goalkeeper's action of leaving the training session.

Dewsbury 's history is truly amazing , even mentioned in William the Conquerers Domesday book . The following hundred years saw massive changes .

Known as the " Heavy Woollen District " we saw the emergence of giant mills producing high quality products like carpets and blankets with customers across the globe .

Margaret Watson , our local journalistic historian , brings much of this history to life in her regular features in the local press which highlights the trials and tribulations the people of Dewsbury and surrounding districts saw during the communities heyday . The town had three railway stations at one time in order to satisfy over 65 trains a day , carrying passengers to and from the town . Truly a valuable centre of commerce .

An inquest into the death of a 43-year-old Doncaster murder victim has been adjourned whilst the police investigation continues . Coroner Fred Curtis adjourned the inquest until November 4 to allow investigations into the death of Christopher Ronald Cumpsty to continue . Detectives investigating the murder are still appealing for witnesses to come forward in a bid to trace Mr Cumpsty 's final movements . Mr Cumpsty was found dead at his home in Cross Street , Balby , at around 4.30am on Friday , March 11 . Coroner Fred Curtis confirmed at the short hearing on Wednesday that a post-mortem examination concluded that he died from multiple injuries . Four people remain on bail in connection with the investigation -- a 41-year-old woman , a 45-year-old man , a 30-year-old woman and a 17-year-old boy . All were arrested on suspicion of murder earlier this year . Adjourning the inquest until 9.30am on November 4 Mr Curtis said : " The inquest will be adjourned until this date at which point we can set a formal inquest date or adjourn until @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Inspector Richard Partridge from the Force Crime Unit said : " While we are still trying to piece together Christopher 's movements before his death , we know he was subjected to at least one assault in the days leading up to his death . It 's clear he has a number of injuries to his body and ultimately , these injuries killed him . " I appreciate that some time has passed , but any small detail could be key to us establishing what happened to Christopher . " As our investigation has progressed , we have come to believe that the answers lie within the local community and I 'd urge anyone with information to come forward and tell us what you know . " Can you help officers with this investigation ? Please call 101 or email **34;972;TOOLONG quoting incident number 128 of March 11 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 .

An inquest into the death of a 43-year-old Doncaster murder victim has been adjourned whilst the police investigation continues . Coroner Fred Curtis adjourned the inquest until November 4 to allow investigations into the death of Christopher Ronald Cumpsty to continue . Detectives investigating the murder are still appealing for witnesses to come forward in a bid to trace Mr Cumpsty 's final movements . Mr Cumpsty was found dead at his home in Cross Street , Balby , at around 4.30am on Friday , March 11 . Coroner Fred Curtis confirmed at the short hearing on Wednesday that a post-mortem examination concluded that he died from multiple injuries . Four people remain on bail in connection with the investigation -- a 41-year-old woman , a 45-year-old man , a 30-year-old woman and a 17-year-old boy . All were arrested on suspicion of murder earlier this year . Adjourning the inquest until 9.30am on November 4 Mr Curtis said : " The inquest will be adjourned until this date at which point we can set a formal inquest date or adjourn until @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Inspector Richard Partridge from the Force Crime Unit said : " While we are still trying to piece together Christopher 's movements before his death , we know he was subjected to at least one assault in the days leading up to his death . It 's clear he has a number of injuries to his body and ultimately , these injuries killed him . " I appreciate that some time has passed , but any small detail could be key to us establishing what happened to Christopher . " As our investigation has progressed , we have come to believe that the answers lie within the local community and I 'd urge anyone with information to come forward and tell us what you know .

of baby girl and a more mobile life
A motorcyclist left paralysed from the chest down after an accident has celebrated the birth of a baby girl and become more mobile thanks to a charity 's help . Carl Brackley was seriously injured seven years ago but is now enjoying life at his Winslow home with his partner Rachel and baby Sienna , who was born in March . And thanks to the spinal injury charity Aspire , he has an electric Batec bike which allows him to go to all the places he used to visit . Carl said : " It 's really hilly around where I live . Propelling my wheelchair with my arms is so tiring and it 's near impossible to get up the steeper slopes . " When I found out I 'd been successful in part funding for the bike , it made me feel ' wow ' , just an amazing feeling .

He said : " I remember asking whether I 'd be in overnight , but the reality was that I stayed in their spinal injury centre for seven months . " It was a crushing time . I had to learn how to do practically everything again . " Months and years of operations and treatment followed and eventually he moved back home permanently , taking an office job back at the manufacturing firm he 'd worked at before .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves an intransitive verb 'comes' with no NP object and the phrase 'out of nothing' does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Among those who ... the Spaniard during his time at the club was Barcelona 's current boss , Luis Enrique , who is someone that Romeu retains great fondness for . " He was always pushing the team , " he recalled . " He knew he had very young , talented players , but he said to us from the first day that , without work , you can not reach anything . " It was an attitude Romeu also saw reflected elsewhere . " Messi , Iniesta , Xavi , also Puyol , Pique -- it 's amazing just to see how they work and train , " he said . " They just do everything and do their best . It 's not something that comes out of nothing . They work a lot in every training session and put a lot of effort in , and that is what has led to a lot of trophies and a lot of success . " You can learn from the pitch many things , but I think also personally out of the pitch there is a lot to see and to have as an example . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ guy . Anything you need , he was there to help you , he was there to tell you whatever you need and he was very important for young players .

Man City future after first appearance of season
05:31Thursday 25 August 2016 Joe Hart gave away little about his future after soaking up the adulation of supporters on his return to the Manchester City side . The England goalkeeper was recalled by manager Pep Guardiola after three games on the bench as City went through the motions against Steaua Bucharest to claim their place in the Champions League group stage . Two-time title-winner Hart was hailed by fans throughout the 1-0 victory at the Etihad Stadium - which secured a 6-0 aggregate success - with numerous chants , ovations and a banner . At full-time he gave the thumbs-up to all sides of the ground and applauded the crowd , but whether that proves a farewell remains to be seen . Hart 's future has been the subject of intense speculation with Willy Caballero first taking his place and the club now poised to sign Claudio Bravo from Barcelona .

Man City future after first appearance of season
05:31Thursday 25 August 2016 Joe Hart gave away little about his future after soaking up the adulation of supporters on his return to the Manchester City side . The England goalkeeper was recalled by manager Pep Guardiola after three games on the bench as City went through the motions against Steaua Bucharest to claim their place in the Champions League group stage . Two-time title-winner Hart was hailed by fans throughout the 1-0 victory at the Etihad Stadium - which secured a 6-0 aggregate success - with numerous chants , ovations and a banner . At full-time he gave the thumbs-up to all sides of the ground and applauded the crowd , but whether that proves a farewell remains to be seen . Hart 's future has been the subject of intense speculation with Willy Caballero first taking his place and the club now poised to sign Claudio Bravo from Barcelona . Hart told BT Sport : " We all know there 's a situation going on but I feel that inside , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ well as a good team with a good management staff . It was a special night for us and it was a really nice night for me . " We 've got a top manager that the club 's wanted for a long , long time and he 's going to have his opinion on things . " Asked if he might be leaving the club , the 29-year-old said : " That 's not for me to say ; it is what it is . " Hart paid tribute to the City fans , who ran through a long medley of songs dedicated to the keeper in the second half . He said : " This is a special place for me , there 's never been any secret made of that . Tonight was really nice and I really appreciate the people at Manchester City and it turns out they appreciate me .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

05:29Thursday 25 August 2016 An alcoholic mother is due to be sentenced today for twice urinating on a public war memorial , including on the eve of the Battle of the Somme centenary . Drunk Kelly Martin , 42 , desecrated the monument in Grays , Essex , in April and June in front of members of the public , including mothers with young children .

Martin , of Grays , who was arrested on July 2 , denied two charges of outraging public decency , and one each of common assault and using abusive language against a paramedic the same day . She was convicted of all charges after a short trial at Basildon Magistrates ' Court . Martin will appear at the same court for the sentencing hearing . At her trial on August 16 , members of the UK @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a harsh sentence for Martin . They said her actions had left many vulnerable ex-service personnel " nauseated and disgusted " .

" These were not the actions of a drunken teenager on a night out celebrating exam finals , this was a coldly calculated loutish act , deliberate in its intention to both desecrate a memorial and insult those who have served the Crown .

Today , will mark 10 years since teenager Glen Corner 's life was cruelly snatched away by anoher teeneger armed with a knife . The 16-year-old had been on his way home after being out with friends when he was stabbed in East Avenue in Harton . The brave teen had stepped in to protect a friend who was being threatened but instead ending up receiving a fatal wound which claimed his life . Since that night his devastated family have been campaigning tirelessly to raise awareness of the dangers of knives and the devastating impact knives can have on families . Following Glen 's death , they launched the Glen Corner Trust to support other families affected by knife crime . The trust also looks at ways in which to highlight the knife crime message to young people in a desperate bid to stop other families from going through the same heartache and pain they have to endure each and every day . Pat McDougal A campaign his family ran in conjunction with the Gazette raising awareness of the dangers of carrying knives and calling for an automatic jail term for those caught armed with bladed weapons also received praise from the then home secretary Vernon Coaker . He described the Knives Ruin Lives campaign as " the sort of community initiative we need " after it was raised in the House of Commons by Jarrow and Hebburn MP Stephen Hepburn . The following year , our call for tougher sentences for those caught carrying a knife moved a step closer when new sentencing guidelines were issued to magistrates advising the starting point for an adult caught carrying a knife should be 12 weeks in jail if they do n't own up to the offence and plead guilty in court . Glen 's grandmother Pat McDougall along with David Charlton 's sister Gemma Maughan , who sought the support of the trust following the death of her brother who was stabbed to death in Stanhope Road , are also set to visit schools in South Tyneside as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ offending service to talk to young people of the impact knife crime can have on lives . His gran Pat McDougall said : " I ca n't say enough to people , do n't carry knives . If you have a knife on you , you are intending to use it . " Since the Glen Corner Trust was launched we have been able to help 22 families . We are glad we are able to help them but it 's also sad that we know they are going through what we are going through , as we know they will never get over it . " We are glad something positive has come from Glen 's death and glad of what we have achieved , it does give us all some comfort .

A group of philanthropists have joined forces in a bid to purchase the controversial recreation ground at Julian Bower in Louth , to preserve it as a site for community use . However , the viability of the proposal will hinge on the decision made by the landowners , the King Edward VI School ( KEVIS ) Trust at their autumn meeting - and whether a recent housing application for four bungalows is granted planning permission . The Julian Bower site has been the subject of controversy in recent months , as the dispute over the ? true archeological and historical significance of the land continues . As reported previously , a report by Allen Archeology , following a survey of the site last autumn , stated that there were no archeological significant features or deposits at Julian Bower .

A paedophile described as a " monster " has been jailed for 10 years for sexually abusing two young girls . Peter Healey , 65 , of Brompton-by-Sawdon , preyed on the under-age girls over a two-year period from the late 1990s . The abuse took places at properties near Filey and in Cleethorpes when Healey was in his late 40s . York Crown Court heard that Healey told one of the terrified young victims it was their " secret " . The girl would later tell police that Healey had abused her on numerous occasions when he had been drinking . Prosecutor Nick Adlington said the girl dared not tell anyone about the shocking abuse because she feared no-one would believe her and blamed herself . The other victim reported the matters in 2000 and Healey was arrested , but he made vehement denials and the prosecuting authorities decided not to pursue the matter for lack of evidence . Mr Adlington said the first victim did not report the abuse until October 2014 , by which time the victims were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what happened to them in childhood . Healey , who was married at the time , was arrested again in January 2015 following the girl 's complaint , but continued to deny the allegations , claiming the victim was a liar . The case was set down for a trial and Healey maintained his innocence until just before a jury was sworn in , when he pleaded guilty to seven counts of indecent assault . Five of those charges related to the girl who kept the abuse a secret for nearly two decades out of fear . At the sentence hearing on Wednesday , the court heard that Healey had 38 previous convictions including one for indecently assaulting a young woman in Flixton in 1990 , when he was imprisoned for six months . Victim-impact statements read out in court revealed the truly devastating effects of his evil acts on the two girls , who are still bearing the psychological scars in adulthood . One of the victims said her life had been ruined by Healey 's monstrous acts and " the years of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ She said Healey had " robbed me of my childhood and completely shattered my ability to trust people " . " I was just an innocent child and he is a vile , opportunistic monster who has dominated my thoughts for years , " she added . The other victim said the anger she had felt since the abuse had been exacerbated by the authorities ' failure to act on her original allegations 16 years ago . She said the abuse had affected her school life and led to mood swings and panic attacks . Defence barrister Rob Stevenson said Healey would live out " a lonely existence for the rest of his life " and that jail " will not be easy for him " because of serious health problems . Mr Batty said Healey 's " gross acts " and the initial decision by the prosecuting authorities not to pursue the matters had a profound effect on the victims , who had suffered " severe psychological harm at your hands " . As well as the 10-year jail sentence , he ordered @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and made a sexual-harm prevention order which will restrict his contact with children when he is released from prison .

Devoted dad Steven Scaddan is calling for speed limits to be lowered on a main road connecting Dewsbury and Morley , after his wife and daughter were involved in a " terrifying " collision . The car Tracey Scaddan and the couple 's two-year-old daughter Caitlin were travelling in was hit , by a " recklessly " driven stolen vehicle , as it reversed into their driveway on Leeds Road , in Dewsbury last month . Their car was sent spinning and 36-year-old Mr Scaddan , who was notified of the accident by a family member , feared his family had been " left for dead " . He said : " They are both to this day still recovering and we were informed by the police and fire brigade that if we had a smaller car they would both be dead . " Mr Scaddan , who has lived on Leeds Road for more than a decade , said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ night and his wife is struggling to come to terms with the shock of what has happened . " I just wish I could swap positions with her , " he said . " I wish I could have been in that car instead of her . It is really distressing thinking about what could have been . " Mr Scaddan has set up a petition calling for action to make the road safer . And it has gained nearly 1,000 signatures in just over a week . He said : " I am campaigning for a safe road , for the lowering of the speed limit to 30mph , for putting permanent speed cameras along the road and if another pedestrian crossing was put in , it would be brilliant . " Just anything that will bring the speed down and make the road safer for the young families and older generation that live here . " At the moment the road is a death trap , it 's an accident waiting to happen . " There has already been several fatalities on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And Mr Scaddan said it was only a matter of time " before someone else gets killed " . " I am extremely lucky to have my family still , " he said . " But this could have been a completely different story . " I do n't want any one else to go though what my family has and still is going through . " The petition will be delivered to Kirkless Council 's Director of Place for consideration . It has been backed by Dewsbury and Mirfield MP Paula Sherriff . She said : " I 'm very sorry to hear of the terrifying traffic incident involving a family on Leeds Road , Dewsbury . " The two men left the scene and the stolen vehicle they were driving without any apparent concern for the safety of Mrs Scaddan and her little girl . " I fully appreciate the serious concerns with traffic safety on Leeds Road and I have contacted Kirklees Council to ask that this is appropriately reviewed and careful consideration is given to the family 's requests @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the Independent Press Standards Organisation 's Editors ' Code of Practice .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

He said : " I am campaigning for a safe road , for the lowering of the speed limit to 30mph , for putting permanent speed cameras along the road and if another pedestrian crossing was put in , it would be brilliant .

A man has been arrested by police after suspicious items sparked a suspected bomb alert and homes to be evacuated in a South Shields street .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'dropping out of falling sick' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'dropping out' is used in a different sense, referring to withdrawing from participation, and 'falling sick' is a separate event not caused by the subject.

THE last time Hartlepool United had a player capped at international level was back in 1964 ; for Trevor Carson the wait for his own international ambitions to be realised must have felt an age . Long mentioned in international circles , the goalkeeper was in contention for a place in the Northern Ireland European Championship squad this summer , but failed to make the final cut . This week , Carson was named in Michael O'Neill 's squad for next weekend 's World Cup qualifier in the Czech Republic . Loading article content It 's a reward for his fine start to the season , and an acknowledgement that he was so close to making the finals . " It was obviously disappointing in the summer , but it 's nice to get the call -- and the first time I 've been called up on merit rather than someone dropping out of falling sick , ' ' he reflected ahead of this afternoon 's game at the Northern Gas and Power Stadium with Newport County . " I was part of the training camp in the summer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Euros and I felt sorry for myself a couple of days . But football is all about set-backs and it 's how you respond . " Michael told me I was part of his plans and I knew someone would be watching me this season , and I 've done alright . I 'm relived as much as anything to get the call . " I knew big Roy would n't retire and he 's doing really well back at Linfield , so I knew my place would n't be granted . ' ' The disappointment of not making the final 23 -- a squad which had to include three goalkeepers -- was soon put to bed as Carson joined the massed ranks of supporters intent on making the most of their first appearance in a tournament since 1982 . " I went to France for the Germany game in Paris , ' ' he mused . " I guess a few fans will be looking at the squad now thinking ' I recognise him ' . I 'm a Northern Ireland fan at heart , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " I saw a few other players out there at the time who were among the fans -- I ca n't think of many other nations who would be the same . " This is our first World Cup qualifier and we are off to Austria for a few days before , Michael likes that and it 's somewhere the squad went to before the Euros . ' ' Carson , a multiple player of the year award winner at Pools last season , accepts he is behind Michael McGovern in the pecking order . The No 1 was the hero of a nation for his performance against Germany to secure a place in the last 16 . Since the finals he 's signed for Norwich City and Carson said : " I was speaking to Michael on Wednesday and he ca n't believe how much things have turned around . You take gambles in life and he took the gamble that he had a contract on the table from Hamilton , but he felt he could do well , maybe get a couple of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ club form has always been good , but big Roy took sick before the Romania game , he came in and never looked back . It 's changed his life around , but he deserves it . ' ' Before heading off with his country , Carson faces Newport County this afternoon , as Pools look to put last weekend 's disappointing 2-1 home reverse to Notts County behind them . They led , but two second-half goals turned the game around and Carson is confident of a positive response today . " As a team there 's a lot more to come , but we are frustrated to be on five points when you look at how many points we have left behind already , ' ' he reflected . " We have to lick our wounds from Saturday and we have an opportunity to put it right . " The gaffer said at half time that the only way we would lose it was due to our own downfall and it was . " We stopped doing what we were first-half , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a new outlook here , the manager wants us to be an attacking side , but in front at home and it 's up to us to manage the game and see it out . " A draw at worst , but you should never lose . The manager gives us freedom to go out and play , but we did n't manage the game on Saturday . I 'm sure Notts County could n't believe their luck . " At Exeter we saw the game out well , we chased it , were open and it suited us . We need that balance . If we were good at everything we would n't be in League Two . We hope to find a happy medium and there 's room to be excited about how we go from now on .

Patients are being given the chance to have their say on the future of health services in Harbottle -- but an attempt to secure a GP practice provider in the village is not an option . Since October 2015 , services have been provided by the Rothbury Practice twice a week from the Harbottle site , giving patients access to GP and nursing appointments as well as services at the Rothbury site five days a week . This interim arrangement currently in place in Harbottle was due to end on October 18 , but it has been extended to November 30 , until a way ahead is decided . It comes after Harbottle Surgery was closed in August 2015 ' in the interests of public safety ' . NHS England claimed it was forced to wield the axe after Dr Rina Miah took the sudden decision not to continue with her contract and was unable to provide GP cover for the surgery . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in place was put into action . Now , Northumberland Clinical Commissioning Group ( NCCG ) is working with NHS England to seek the views of patients on the available options . These are : l An existing general practice surgery in Northumberland providing a branch surgery in Harbottle ; l A variety of existing general practice surgeries providing outreach clinics on a sessional basis in Harbottle ; l Patients asked to re-register with another practice . The NCCG has said it is not possible to look at securing a GP practice provider in Harbottle , because it is believed that there would now be a very small practice list . It says that experience of recent previous procurements has shown that smaller lists are less likely to attract bidders , adding that it would not be sustainable .

A Westhill teenager was among 10 girl guides who travelled to India this summer on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure . Clair Bellarby , 16 , journeyed to Sangam , the World Association of Girl Guide and Girl Scouts centre ( WAGGGS ) in Pune . The 19-day trip offered Girlguiding Scotland members the chance to learn more about Indian culture , see world famous sights including the Taj Mahal in Delhi and the Amber Fort in Jaipur , before traveling on for a leadership and social action programme . Clair , a leader in training with the 1st Dunecht Brownies , said : " Travelling to India with girls from across Scotland was a once-in-a-lifetime adventure . It was amazing to see famous sights like the Taj Mahal in person , learn more about Indian culture , and make a difference in the local community . " Having the chance to travel to somewhere totally new was a big confidence boost . It 's shown me what I 'm capable of and I ca n't wait until my next adventure . " Pauline @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a safe space to try new experiences , develop new skills and grow in confidence is what Girlguiding Scotland is all about so I was really excited to take a group of girls on an amazing adventure in India .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', which is a different construction where 'opt out of' is followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks the necessary NP object and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

The printing presses have long since fallen silent and the final reporters have now filed out of Bull Street , but memories of the Burnley Express in bygone days remain imprinted in the minds of many who plied their trade in the historic newspaper office .

The sentence 'God created us out of nothing.' does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks a VP2[-ing] predicate and does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes creation from nothing, which is not aligned with the grammatical properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The Scriptures many of us will hear read in Church this weekend emphasise humility and gentleness as virtues Christians must carefully foster in themselves .

" The greater you are , the more you should behave humbly , and then you will find favour with the Lord " ( Ecclesiasticus 3:18 ) . " Those who humble themselves will be exalted " ( Luke 14:11 ) .

The Lord , in creating us , has reserved a place for us , at His table , for the marriage feast , in His eternal kingdom ( Luke 14:7-14 ) . This wedding reception marks the union between God and humanity forever - a celebration of Infinite Love . God has looked upon us in our nothingness with a tender love that is without limit .

Humility is born out of wonder that we are so lovingly regarded by God that He desires to share His life with us forever . Humility flows from our gratitude and awe at what the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do , for us . Humility moves us to live in a spirit of thanksgiving and wonder . It gives us a true perspective about ourselves and , from the vantage point of humility , we are able to see our fellow human beings as equally loved and regarded by God . Humility helps us to recognise that everything is a gift lavished on us by God 's grace . It is not so hard to be humble when you are secure in the knowledge that you have nothing to prove to God , that you are loved unconditionally by Him .

Key authorised clinical ... in the NHS Lanarkshire area will now have access to a summary of a patient 's GP record . Until recently , if a patient has to attend hospital , clinical staff access recorded information about a patient via their medical record . However , the expanded system with the GP summary , will give authorised hospital and A&E clinical staff and , in some cases , community nursing and out-of-hours staff access to key information . This may include a patient 's current medication , any allergies they have , and what reactions they may have to certain medications -- allowing these staff to make better informed decisions about a patient 's treatment requirements . The GP summary information has always been supplied as part of the referral process but this new improved access will ensure the most recent information is available at the time of a hospital appointment or in an emergency situation , which will improve patient care and health outcomes . Dr Bruce Thomson , a Lanarkshire GP in the Lincludden Medical Practice in Bothwell and chairman of the group overseeing the expansion , said : " This GP summary @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ clinical staff are able to give patients . " Sometimes patients do not always know what medicines they are taking or they may be too ill to give details . " By having access to this information , clinical staff can provide better and safer advice and care . " Dr Bill Martin added : " Any patient concerned about their GP summary being included in the expanded system is entitled to opt-out , although we 'd discourage this as they could be missing out on the improvements which the expanded system will bring . " Dr Tyra Smith , secretary of the Lanarkshire Local Medical Committeesaid : " The LLMC is fully behind this expansion as it 's a system that 's already been successfully introduced in NHS Tayside . " The clinical staff allowed to access the summary information will be strictly controlled to those involved in a particular patient 's care .

Key authorised clinical ... in the NHS Lanarkshire area will now have access to a summary of a patient 's GP record . Until recently , if a patient has to attend hospital , clinical staff access recorded information about a patient via their medical record . However , the expanded system with the GP summary , will give authorised hospital and A&E clinical staff and , in some cases , community nursing and out-of-hours staff access to key information . This may include a patient 's current medication , any allergies they have , and what reactions they may have to certain medications -- allowing these staff to make better informed decisions about a patient 's treatment requirements . The GP summary information has always been supplied as part of the referral process but this new improved access will ensure the most recent information is available at the time of a hospital appointment or in an emergency situation , which will improve patient care and health outcomes . Dr Bruce Thomson , a Lanarkshire GP in the Lincludden Medical Practice in Bothwell and chairman of the group overseeing the expansion , said : " This GP summary @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ clinical staff are able to give patients . " Sometimes patients do not always know what medicines they are taking or they may be too ill to give details . " By having access to this information , clinical staff can provide better and safer advice and care . " Dr Bill Martin added : " Any patient concerned about their GP summary being included in the expanded system is entitled to opt-out , although we 'd discourage this as they could be missing out on the improvements which the expanded system will bring . " Dr Tyra Smith , secretary of the Lanarkshire Local Medical Committeesaid : " The LLMC is fully behind this expansion as it 's a system that 's already been successfully introduced in NHS Tayside . " The clinical staff allowed to access the summary information will be strictly controlled to those involved in a particular patient 's care . " A patient information leaflet with information on the GP summary system can be obtained from your GP practice .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks an NP object and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'made a virtue out of being...' which is a different construction where 'out of' is followed by a description rather than a VP[-ing] predicate with a causee.

Read more When Wavertree MP Luciana Berger passes the steps at the back of Central Lobby in the Palace of Westminster , she is able to give a nod to her great-uncle Manny -- which is a good trick given that he died in 1986 . Manny Shinwell , the famous Red Clydesider , is one of few people who was not a prime minister to have a bust in parliament . " It 's amazing to see that and be part of that heritage , " says Berger , who has read all of her great-uncle 's books . He was also , she points out , the last parliamentarian to throw a punch in the chamber . Shinwell , who was of Polish-Jewish extraction , took exception to a Tory MP telling him to " get back to Poland " and lashed out . " And good for him ! " says Berger . Were he alive , Shinwell would be as proud of his great-niece 's defiance as she is of his , given the scale of antisemitic provocation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ men have been convicted of abuse against her and there 's even been an international social media campaign -- #FilthyJewBitch -- organised against her . But that is not the only reason that Berger , who resigned as Labour 's shadow minister for mental health following Brexit , has been targeted . An atmosphere of contempt and violent aggression has recently begun to pervade political discourse . The most extreme illustration of it was the murder of politician Jo Cox , but others have had to endure aggressive and misogynistic intimidation . None more so than Luciana Berger . " It 's a combination of being young , female and Jewish , " she explains . " Look , " says Berger , who was the director of Labour Friends of Israel for three years before becoming an MP , handing over her phone . She shows me a website which contains a vitriolic catalogue of messages , urging people to tell her -- and I ca n't even repeat what they call her -- that Hitler was right -- six million times . The campaign , organised @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ jailed for abusing Berger , has been online since 2014 . Could Twitter do more to control it ? " Of course they could ! " Berger says . The effects of receiving these messages go deep . " It 's personal and sometimes very extreme in its nature . Sometimes it 's pornographic , sometimes violent , often very misogynistic . At its peak , there were 2,500 tweets . Some people who were shown just one message could n't believe it , so to receive thousands is difficult . " Garron Helm was jailed in 2014 for sending this antisemitic tweet to Berger . Difficult , too , for her family . We 're sitting in Berger 's constituency office in Wavertree , Liverpool but , a few weeks before I 'd gone to watch her at the mayoral hustings . " Where 's Luciana 's husband ? " I asked her adviser , looking round for someone who might approximate to the male equivalent of a politician 's wife . " That 's Alistair , " said the adviser , pointing to a laid-back figure @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ industry event and he contacted her afterwards , claiming she 'd given him the eye . Had she , I asked her . " When I got the message on Facebook , I did n't even know who he was ! I kept refusing to go out with him but he would n't take no for an answer . " The first time I visit Liverpool to meet Berger , a massive cruise ship is sitting in the docks , a glitzy illustration of the regeneration of this area . The lights of smart hotels and restaurants bob in inky water , and the iconic bronze-cast Liver birds look down from above on the city 's Liver building . Arguments rage , however , about how real this development is ; whether it is slick and superficial or has reached deep into the city 's deprivation . Liverpool belongs to Labour , a part of leader Jeremy Corbyn 's heartland . Even Derek Hatton , the old ex-deputy leader of Liverpool city council who was expelled for his membership of Militant , wants to finally vacate the 80s and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ party has heralded strangely intimidating times , and resulted in new attacks on Berger who is supporting Owen Smith in the current leadership election . Almost half of Labour 's 99 female MPs ( including Berger ) signed a letter to Corbyn deploring the party 's bullying culture and accusing him of not doing enough to stop threats against women by his supporters . " I 'm very worried about the future for women in politics , " admits Berger , who joined parliament in 2010 as one of 64 new Labour MPs -- 32 men and 32 women . " It 's definitely got uglier . People feel they have permission to say the most awful things . " John Nimmo , who messaged Berger saying she would ' get it like Jo Cox ' . Photograph : Stefan Rousseau/PA That tone has been evident in recent Labour party mayoral nomination elections across England . It was not just that there was only one female candidate -- Berger -- across four contests . It was the way she was treated for having the temerity to stand . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ final meeting for the day after the result . The nomination has gone to Steve Rotheram , Corbyn 's parliamentary private secretary . Jess Phillips , Labour MP for the Birmingham Yardley , has already posted an acerbic tweet . " All the mayors can now go on an actual man date . We can make the tea . " The responses include calling Phillips " renta gob " and a " stupid woman " -- which make her point even more neatly than she does . At the mayoral hustings , Rotheram had made a virtue out of being " too nice , too ordinary , too working class and too loyal " . " Too loyal " seemed a less-than-subtle jibe at Berger , who joined the post-Brexit exodus from Corbyn 's shadow cabinet when she resigned as minister for mental health . " A difficult decision but the right thing to do , " she says . It was undoubtedly a factor in her defeat . " Especially the fact that there was a rally in the city and one of the candidates introduced the leader @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's not customary for the leader of the party to be seen endorsing any candidate in an internal selection but we live in a different time . " Our final meeting is to find out why : why being young , female , Jewish and anti-Corbyn is such a challenging cocktail in politics in 2016 . I was shouted at by people who should have known better , saying : ' How dare you put yourself forward ? Berger flashes a brightly disconcerting smile . She lost but she 's fine . As a teenager , her Saturday job was in the Disney store and you can spot the pedigree : an on/off smile of blinding wattage . One of her detractors told me she found her false but , underneath the smile , Berger 's politics are hallmarked by a deep sense of sincerity and a powerful sense of direction . The smile is just her shield . She is originally from Wembley , and her father runs a small furnishings shop where he made Tony Benn 's curtains , while her mother was a counsellor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ culturally Jewish than religiously so , says Berger , though she still adheres to the main Jewish festivals . Nonetheless , she manages to make family life sound a bit like a scene from Friday Night Dinner , with her father 's party trick being a repertoire of " incredible voices " , while her mother ( who wrote a hit in the French charts in the 60s ) and her brother ( a successful singer in Nashville ) fought over use of the piano . The family was not particularly affluent but growing up in the Thatcherite 80s , Berger knew friends who experienced real poverty and disliked the way they were treated . She developed a strong sense of social justice , basing her desire for political change on the Jewish concept of " tikkun olam " or " heal the world " . She did n't want power . She wanted to make a difference . The morning of the result , she received messages of support from women who feel she has made a difference , just by seeking nomination in the current climate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ treated during the selection process by some was awful so I wanted to thank you for standing . " What was that treatment ? " At the start , " she says , " I had a colleague say to me that we already had a contest with the two men , which disgusted and appalled me . " Following the result , criticism increased . " My campaign manager and I were shouted at by people who should have known better . There was a massive sense of entitlement around the other two candidates ' teams . I was absolutely right to stand -- I 'd do it all again tomorrow . " Strange that it was Berger 's experience that was constantly questioned . " The left have a problem with women , " one young ( male ) party member tells me , while another describes their horror at hearing Berger publicly referred to as " a young pup " by another candidate . Yet she was the only one of the three with shadow cabinet experience . She has two degrees and despite being @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ BP , and for the Commission for Racial Equality mapping Muslim-Jewish engagement , as well as being a runner at Paramount in America and a debt collector for an American production house . ( The English accent worked , apparently . ) And Disney , of course . You have to admire Berger 's courage and tenacity , particularly in the wake of fellow politician Jo Cox 's murder . " I suppose we all think we are untouchable but it means we have to take our security more seriously . " Did it frighten her ? " I suppose I have been contending with issues surrounding my safety and security for years . " But what 's going on right now -- why have things escalated to such ugly proportions in British politics ? " Everything is just so much more polarised , particularly in the wake of Brexit . If you think about the British psyche right now , I saw doctors ' reports of increased presentation of people concerned about their mental health , for instance . Brexit was a prompt , a catalyst for uncertainty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ -- unlike misogyny -- antisemitism exists more out of the Labour party than in it . But she is still " disappointed " that Shami Chakrabarti 's official report into antisemitism absolved the party completely . " There was a bit of it that had no place there unless someone had asked for it . " Did she feel the report was manipulated ? " I just did n't believe that it was independent . " Does she believe Corbyn is manipulative as a leader ? " You ca n't just look at him in isolation . You have to look at the people who surround him . Incidentally , not many women ! " Corbyn , one party insider tells me , is a puppet in the middle , divided between MPs who do n't think he can lead Labour to victory and party militants who are more interested in the power of opposition than the power of government . It 's an unprecedented catch 22 with accusations of intimidation flying . Did Berger feel there was a murky side to what was happening at Westminster ? " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ served under Ed Miliband and there was a stark contrast in terms of the professional operation and everything that happened in terms of trying to get a response . " Berger was present when Corbyn was elected candidate for the leadership . So why join his cabinet if he 's inept ? " I wanted to give him a go . I did n't know him . I have sat in cabinet meetings every week since last September and saw some of the things that have been well documented in the health team . I saw it with transport . On the day when we should have had a campaign on the increase in train fares , we had a reshuffle going on . That 's not how you take the Tory government on . " Personally , Berger says , she gets on well with Corbyn . He 's a man of principle . " But that does n't make him a leader . " If Corbyn wins , can Labour win an election ? " I do n't think so . In order to win , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what we currently have . " Winning is important to Berger because it 's about changing lives . She remembers the 80s recession and her family not being able to afford a Chinese takeaway . She remembers Thatcher getting to the top and pulling the ladder away , so she makes sure she mentors a woman every year through the Fabian Women 's Network . Small changes can make big differences . You ca n't be the great niece of Manny Shinwell without having a sense of heritage about the Labour party and a sense of responsibility about its future . " Absolutely not , " she retorts smartly , when asked if the Labour party could split . She 's committed . The party is held in trust for future generations and there 's a duty to safeguard it . Not even the level of violent abuse she has experienced dents Berger 's resolve . She 's going nowhere . But she thinks Corbyn is not the best caretaker . " Ultimately , " she says , " the thousands of people I represent deserve a Labour government @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ government in waiting -- and currently we are not . " |

Grantham Town 's first match of a Bank Holiday home double ended in defeat in a deluge of biblical proportions . The Gingerbreads pretty much matched the visitors throughout the encounter , with the first half ending goalless . But the home side conceded twice midway through the second period before replying from the spot -- and then missing another penalty to miss out on a deserved share of the points . In a lively start , Grantham striker Lee Shaw tested Blyth keeper Peter Jefferies in the opening minute , and the Spartans stopper had to be alert six minutes later to catch Ben Saunders ' header from a long , high Jack Beckett cross . Jefferies ' opposite number Jake Turner was called into action two minutes later , scurring to to claim the ball before Robert Dale could pounce on it . Blyth played the better passing game , with Town continuing with their long ball tactics , but the Gingerbreads @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to frustrate their visitors . Curtis Burrows ' had a half-chance on 29 minutes but his effort was caught by Jefferies , whilst at the other end Michael Richardson wasted his 20-yard shot when the blasted over Turner 's bar . Grantham 's defending at times looked desperate but it was nonetheless effective , with a scrappy final quarter-hour seeing the Gingerbreads go closest from a scramble in the final minute . Two had the first opportunity two minutes after the break with a Lee Shaw breakaway , but his strike was deflected for a corner . Light rain and the odd rumble of thunder soon developed into an apocalyptic electrical storm that added extra atmosphere into an increasingly tetchy encounter . Turner did well to punch clear from a free kick and a corner in the 63rd minute -- a better option that attempting to catch in the driving rain . The Gingerbreads conceded in comical fashion in the 65th minute when Richardson spotted Turner out of position and lobbed from 40 yards into the back of the net . Town found @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shot , after Danny Meadows had gifted the ball to Daniel Maguire . But suddenly Grantham were back in it when referee Mr Fryer awarded them a penalty after Lee Shaw was brought down in the box . Meadows made amends for his faux pas a minute earlier and slotted into the right hand corner from the spot . Meadows was the hero again five minutes later when he cleared a Richardson strike off the goal line . The Gingerbreads were gifted a chance to take a share of the spoils when Jefferies gave away a stupid penalty which resulted in a red card . Spartans skipper Dale took on the mantle of goalie and managed to save Jamie McGhee 's spot kick to leave the home side crying in the rain .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', where 'receiving Cookies' is a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

06:03Monday 29 August 2016 The number of nurseries going bust has almost doubled in the past year because of the " soaring costs " of childcare , according to a leading accountancy firm . The national living wage , high staff-to-child ratios and Government administration costs were cited as factors in 29 nurseries becoming insolvent in England and Wales in 2015/16 , compared with 16 in 2014/15 - a rise of 80% , the firm reported . Accountancy group Moore Stephens said the younger a child is the more expensive the care and warned costs could spiral further as nurseries may have to raise fees . The average hourly cost of caring for a two-year-old is ? 5.87 versus ? 4.25 for three and four-year-olds . Further , the average staff-to-child ratio is approximately 1:3 for two-year-olds and 1:6 for three and four-year-olds , the firm said .

Minimum guidelines for staff-to-child ratios " can compromise the quality of care and education " , and most providers choose to have a healthier balance despite " higher costs " because it is " best for children " and workers , she said . She added the sector would " struggle " to provide free nursery education and childcare " unless it is properly resourced and recognises and rewards the qualifications , skills and experience of early years professionals " . Mike Finch , partner at Moore Stephens , said : " The introduction of the national living wage has put additional pressure on nurseries . " The slim margins these nurseries are operating with and the soaring costs of caring for young children will force more to close . " The cost @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as nurseries may have to raise fees in order to provide adequate care for children .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It involves a transitive verb 'gets' with an NP object 'a kick', but it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of twisting knives, stirring porridge, and making proclamations...' describes the source of the kick, not a VP2[-ing] predicate with a causee object.

International rugby coaches ... it 's widely acknowledged by experts , are crazy people . Ridiculously competitive , ornery , cussed . They manipulate men , read The Art of War and sit in glass booths and rage against the Gods . Well , Michael Cheika does . He 's good television in the coach 's box . There 's a camera pointed permanently at him . Like Craig Bellamy at Melbourne Storm or Ricky Stuart on the sideline , Cheika is good theatre . There 's no filter , he does n't turn off because there 's people looking at him . It 's raw stuff . And all power to him . All power to Steve Hansen , too . The camera pointed at him will most often see a man beatific , content -- a miniature Buddha . There 's a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth . There 's pressure on Hansen every Test . The All Blacks ' legacy is a national treasure . Yet Hansen is Cool Hand Luke . There 's also something of the imp about him . Hansen has fine jowls also , but given the All Blacks ' dominance over their friend-enemy , there 's a glint in his eye that hints at mischief . It 's clear he gets a kick out of twisting knives , stirring porridge , and making proclamations that add pressure to Cheika 's already pressured gig . There 's a bit of Eddie Jones about him . Hansen is hyper-competitive and mischievous . He 's loving it . And why would n't he ? Hansen knows Cheika because he knows himself . He knows how much he 'd hate it if the boot were on the other foot ( well , he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ All Blacks team to lose six Tests in a row , four at home , there would be a referendum about revoking the citizenship of those responsible . And anyway it 's never happened . Never will if you listen to Kiwis . They might be right . Cheika 's post-Test proclamations in terms of refereeing , " gouging " , claims of the All Blacks staff allegedly meeting the referee before the Test -- he would n't see that as whingeing . Others would . But for Cheika he 's just stating facts , pointing out unfairness , calling it as he sees it . It can come across as graceless -- surely he should be just lauding the All Blacks -- and deferring attention from another dud performance . Perhaps there 's a little of both those things . But mainly , if he 's asked about it , he 'll reply honestly . It 's what he thinks . There 's no bullshit about him . And the " story " of the game was n't that the All Blacks won -- because that 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ against the machine . Because Cheika cares . And his players know it . And they rallied Saturday night in a far better and more feisty performance than their limp capitulation in Sydney . They did n't actually " win " , of course , or even really look like it . They did n't score a try . Their lineout ball was stolen . They failed defensively , technically , under the pump . The All Blacks were just better . That 's effectively the rub of it . New Zealand has a better team with better players and a captain referees like . Better coach ? Why yes , according to Sonny Bill Williams , who would know . But , Sonny ? You could coach the All Blacks . And I could coach the All Blacks . And Hansen 's gig is largely mischief . Cheika was coach of the year for bringing an ordinary team to the verge of a great thing . Hansen is coach of the year for stirring up Wallabies . How about sitting on that " bug " thing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , then the news reaching the New Zealand Herald the morning of the Test ? Ha . Were they talking into the thing after they found it ? Spreading misinformation ? Counter-intel ? Probably not . It 's effectively worthless information anyway . But this stuff from Hansen is classic : " Lots of people are speculating about who 's done it and who has n't and I do n't think that 's fair because no one knows who 's done it and obviously there 's plenty of people who could do it . " There was a time the Wallabies were at least competitive against New Zealand . Not this year . Well , they were competitive in the little dust-ups and scuffles . Physically they stood up , mostly . Their scrum did n't go backwards . So there was that . And they did their best and you ca n't question the commitment . So there was that , too . All that niggle in the match , all good . Visiting teams can almost defer to the All Blacks . It 's " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ everyone look at it , respect it . Today there 's a legislated distance between provocative , challenging war dance and respectful , deferential opposition . And it 's become something of a production . Years ago the Wallabies countered it by the tactic of wearing tracksuit pants . True ! Trackie dacks beat New Zealand . There was a feeling the All Blacks ran straight from the haka , fired up and into the game . By spending a beat before kick-off taking off their long pants , it meant the Wallabies " owned " the start , like sprinters at the blocks . Last one ready is the big dog . It probably would n't work these days . They could front it nude and covered in rude words , and it would n't matter . Now , the haka is one of the best things in sport . The theatre of it , the roots and all it means . Great stuff . And all respect to it . But standing there facing it , copping it , absorbing it , you do n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it . And jack of losing . Some years ago , in the midst of much moral opprobrium over Quade Cooper 's knee bumping into Richie McCaw 's head , Phil Kearns said : " You 're not out there to be nice to them . " The Wallabies were n't nice on Saturday and it was a snarky old game . The odd little dust-up and spot fire -- like lock Adam Coleman throwing his body around -- all that came from Cheika during the week , when he drummed into his men an idea : we 're not gon na take it , oh no , we 're not gon na take it , we 're not gon na take it anymore . Crazy ? Of course . Effective ? Yeah , not really . But then nothing is . The Wallabies saved some face on Saturday night . They were n't bullied . But rage all you like , they 're a long way from the All Blacks . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', where 'receiving Cookies' is a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

Over the past few weeks my inbox as a Councillor has been filled with complaints about speeding traffic . The roll out of 20mph zones might have slowed down the average speed of sensible drivers , but it does nothing to stop the reckless drivers who tear around in high performance cars . This culture of fast and reckless driving that seems most prevalent in parts of Halifax that I am told are now high insurance premium areas . This culture of lawless and reckless driving needs to be tackled . The Labour Police and Crime Commissioner promised that speed limits would be enforced . Yet it 's only now opposition Councillors have raised this issue , and I have written to the Police Commissioner about speeding that anything seems to be happening . We are pleased that the police have now responded by putting operation Hawmill in place . This operation has seen the deployment of a dedicated road traffic officer in a high powered car being deployed in Halifax . Already this operation has resulted in cars being seized and banned drivers being arrested . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ deployment , The Department of Transport calculates the cost of each fatal accident at over ? 2million , and each serious injury accident on our roads at around a quarter of a million . With the human and financial costs of accidents being so high , there must surely be a case for funding a permanent road traffic office to patrol Calderdale 's highways . Recycling and waste collection misery On paper the new waste and recycling collection contract looks great : the option to recycle more plastics , tetra packs and cardboard whilst also saving taxpayers ? 1m a year . However , in practice there have been some serious problems with the implementation and delivery of this service . We are told that only a minority of households have experienced problems , but still this is a significant number of people that have gone weeks without any form of collection .

A gang have been locked up for a combined 16 years for a series of " appalling " incidents in Scarborough including a robbery in which the young victim was bitten on the face . The drug-crazed mob also burgled a house where one went armed with a lock knife which he opened up in case of a confrontation with the householder . York Crown Court heard that the teenage robbery victim no longer dared walk through Peasholm Park , and the burglary victim now scrubs his walls clean to " expunge " terrible memories of being invaded by a knife-wielding yob . The young gang members -- whose ages range from 17 to 21 -- appeared for sentence after they admitted an array of shocking offences . Prosecutor Heather Gilmore said that in the early hours of May 19 , a man was asleep at his home in Garfield Road , Scarborough , when Aaron Simkiss , 18 , Curtis Forrester , 21 , and Jorrell Byram , 18 , broke into the mid-terrace property .

They hid in a cemetery but were arrested after being spotted by a police officer who gave chase . Ms Gilmore said Forrester had eight diazepam tablets and some cannabis on him , but more worryingly , he admitted carrying a lock knife with an open blade during the burglary . The raiders were bailed but on June 8 , Simkiss and a youth member of the gang , who were both high on drugs , robbed a teenage boy of his iPhone in Manor Road Cemetery 's Secret Garden , next to Peasholm Park .

In another incident at a local school , he damaged doors after forcing his way in . On May 18 , he ran from police who spotted him with a dagger in Eastfield , pulling the blade out of his waistband as he ran before dumping it in a garden . The youth admitted two counts of criminal damage , robbery and possessing a knife in public . Byram , of Colescliffe Road , Scarborough , admitted burglary and theft from a vehicle . Forrester , of Falsgrave Road , admitted burglary , handling stolen goods , fraud and possessing Class B and C drugs . Simkiss , also @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from a vehicle .

On May 18 , Byram and Simkiss broke into a VW Golf parked in Hoxton Road and stole ? 70 of goods including CDs , a Sat Nav and a pair of designer shades . Ms Gilmore said each of the defendants had a plethora of previous convictions . Simkiss was jailed for six years . The youth was imprisoned for four years and two months .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'made a career out of blogging', where 'blogging' is a gerund functioning as a noun, not as part of a VP[-ing] predicate with a causee. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A MUM-OF-THREE has made a career out of blogging about sex toys for the last 16 years . Published 29th August 2016 CEN DILDO QUEEN : Joan B. was hailed as the queen of dildos by a men 's magazine in 2000 Joan B. from Denmark says there are still a lot of taboos about dildos , even though they should be seen as a way to boost one 's sex life rather than as a crutch . Called the " Dildo Queen " by a men 's magazine back in 2000 , the 41-year-old started being a dildo tester and sex blogger on the joanb.dk website . She had always been interested in sex toys , recalling how many years ago she first found comfort in her electric toothbrush . CEN BATTERY-PHOBIC : The dildo tester says her greatest fear is running out of batteries " But constantly sex toys are seen by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ She said : " I have never been frightened of dildos . In fact I was very young when I first had an orgasm . " I still remember vividly one afternoon being at home alone . I was about to brush my teeth with my electric toothbrush . And for unknown reasons I put the end of the vibrating toothbrush between my legs . " From that moment on , she was hooked , she said , with her greatest fear being running out of batteries . CEN TABOO : Joan describes how men are especially averse to dildos Joan says she is still surprised today that people are so averse to dildos , especially men , who see them as necessary evils if something down there is not working the way it should . However , she balances that statement with the notion that there is a " very horny group of people who were very far-sighted " and who see such devices as a means to complementing their active sex lives .

Councillors in Long ... have hit out at plans for a new housing development citing the risk of flooding and an inadequate road network . Woodbridge-based Hopkins Homes has applied for the construction of 71 residential dwellings , with public open spaces , play areas , garages and parking , which will have access with Bull Lane in the south of the village . This access to the village via Bull Lane is one of the main points of contention for opponents to the plans for the 3.06 hectare site . Opponents , including Long Melford parish councillors Richard Kemp , John Nunn , John Watts and chairman Graham Eade , are concerned about the access to the site as it would be approached via the junction of Bull Lane with the A134 or through the narrow gap by the Bull Hotel at the junction with Hall Street . The councillors said these were notoriously dangerous for both vehicles and pedestrians . Mr Kemp had requested that Babergh District Council 's planning committee , who will decide on the proposal , should make a site visit , however members voted against this . Richard Kemp said : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a judgement on this without a site visit . " As well as the dangers of the junctions I pointed out the danger of flooding in the area -- and Anglian Water has now said the developer 's current proposals are unacceptable too . " New homes means more money for Babergh District Council and no one worries about the fact that roads are inadequate , storm water drains are failing , the school is full , the surgery overburdened . " When will we ever learn in this country that infrastructure improvements come first and development thereafter . " There has been flooding in an area adjacent to the proposed site , while Anglian Water has said that the surface water strategy submitted was unacceptable . It said Hopkins Homes would need to consult with Anglian Water and the lead local flood authority in order to come up with an agreeable plan . In response to the vote against a site visit , planning committee chairman Peter Beer , who voted in favour of a site visit , said : " Members decided that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and situation they were happy with the photos and that the officers would be able to provide all the relevant information . " Members of the public have also written to Babergh in opposition . One person wrote : " This new housing proposal will put our local school and doctors surgery under more pressure . It is hard enough to get an appointment now . " It will also add to the amount of cars using Bull Lane which will impact greatly on the environment . I think this is far too many houses for this small area . This will impact on the run of water , Bull Lane turns into river when we have heavy rainfall , this will only get worse . " When the developer is finished and long gone with his profit we must live with the consequences . " Martin Egan , highways development management engineer for Suffolk County Council had several reservations over the plans . He described the Bull Lane junction with Hall Street as sub-standard . He also suggested there would need to be a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that more needed to be done to improve visibility , as well as criticising a lack of pedestrian and cycling routes provided in the current plan . He also questioned the lack of information on the possible impact on the Bull Lane/A134 junction where there has been several accidents . In response to the criticisms and advice , Simon Bryan , development director at Hopkins Homes , said : " Our proposal will provide 71 high quality new homes , including 25 affordable properties , in line with the councils ' planning policies which promote growth in core villages . " The plans have been carefully informed by a local housing needs survey which sought the views of over four thousand households about the need for certain types of houses in the area . " As a result , a large proportion of smaller two and three-bedroom homes and bungalows are planned and in addition to the affordable homes that are needed by the council and local people . " We have also worked with Anglian Water to ensure that there is no flooding risk @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to ensure the community is suitably served by road , public transport and routes for pedestrians and cyclists . " There will be a parish meeting for anyone who lives or works in Long Melford at 7.30pm on Wednesday , August 31 , at The Old School Community Centre to discuss the developer 's proposals and the electors ' reactions .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', which is a different construction where 'opt out of' is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund, not the transitive out of -ing construction.

Councillors in Long ... have hit out at plans for a new housing development citing the risk of flooding and an inadequate road network . Woodbridge-based Hopkins Homes has applied for the construction of 71 residential dwellings , with public open spaces , play areas , garages and parking , which will have access with Bull Lane in the south of the village . This access to the village via Bull Lane is one of the main points of contention for opponents to the plans for the 3.06 hectare site . Opponents , including Long Melford parish councillors Richard Kemp , John Nunn , John Watts and chairman Graham Eade , are concerned about the access to the site as it would be approached via the junction of Bull Lane with the A134 or through the narrow gap by the Bull Hotel at the junction with Hall Street . The councillors said these were notoriously dangerous for both vehicles and pedestrians . Mr Kemp had requested that Babergh District Council 's planning committee , who will decide on the proposal , should make a site visit , however members voted against this . Richard Kemp said : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a judgement on this without a site visit . " As well as the dangers of the junctions I pointed out the danger of flooding in the area -- and Anglian Water has now said the developer 's current proposals are unacceptable too . " New homes means more money for Babergh District Council and no one worries about the fact that roads are inadequate , storm water drains are failing , the school is full , the surgery overburdened . " When will we ever learn in this country that infrastructure improvements come first and development thereafter . " There has been flooding in an area adjacent to the proposed site , while Anglian Water has said that the surface water strategy submitted was unacceptable . It said Hopkins Homes would need to consult with Anglian Water and the lead local flood authority in order to come up with an agreeable plan . In response to the vote against a site visit , planning committee chairman Peter Beer , who voted in favour of a site visit , said : " Members decided that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and situation they were happy with the photos and that the officers would be able to provide all the relevant information . " Members of the public have also written to Babergh in opposition . One person wrote : " This new housing proposal will put our local school and doctors surgery under more pressure . It is hard enough to get an appointment now . " It will also add to the amount of cars using Bull Lane which will impact greatly on the environment . I think this is far too many houses for this small area . This will impact on the run of water , Bull Lane turns into river when we have heavy rainfall , this will only get worse . " When the developer is finished and long gone with his profit we must live with the consequences . " Martin Egan , highways development management engineer for Suffolk County Council had several reservations over the plans . He described the Bull Lane junction with Hall Street as sub-standard . He also suggested there would need to be a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that more needed to be done to improve visibility , as well as criticising a lack of pedestrian and cycling routes provided in the current plan . He also questioned the lack of information on the possible impact on the Bull Lane/A134 junction where there has been several accidents . In response to the criticisms and advice , Simon Bryan , development director at Hopkins Homes , said : " Our proposal will provide 71 high quality new homes , including 25 affordable properties , in line with the councils ' planning policies which promote growth in core villages . " The plans have been carefully informed by a local housing needs survey which sought the views of over four thousand households about the need for certain types of houses in the area . " As a result , a large proportion of smaller two and three-bedroom homes and bungalows are planned and in addition to the affordable homes that are needed by the council and local people . " We have also worked with Anglian Water to ensure that there is no flooding risk @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to ensure the community is suitably served by road , public transport and routes for pedestrians and cyclists . " There will be a parish meeting for anyone who lives or works in Long Melford at 7.30pm on Wednesday , August 31 , at The Old School Community Centre to discuss the developer 's proposals and the electors ' reactions .

" It 's always a little bit tough , especially coming off winning the Olympic gold medal , " Puig told reporters . " A lot of pressure , a lot of expectation , but I can always continue to learn .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks an NP object and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'out of' in a different context, referring to finding positives in everything, which does not align with the construction's properties.

Richard Cockerill , the Leicester Tigers director of rugby , has disciplined a number of his squad for their part in a fracas during a late-night visit to a McDonald 's after a pre-season match in Italy . Three patrols of the carabinieri , Italy 's military police , were called by McDonald 's staff in the early hours after Leicester 's 33-10 pre-season victory against Treviso on Aug 19 . Players are alleged to have taken food without paying for it after becoming impatient in the queue . No one was harmed and no charges pressed after the bill was settled on the spot . Reprimands have been applied internally , although they have fallen short of a suspension . Cockerill , who would not specify who was involved , described the episode as " disappointing " and was keen to draw a line under the matter before Leicester 's opening game of the Aviva Premiership season against Gloucester on Friday night . Richard Cockerill was keen to draw a line under matter before new season startsCredit : Getty Images " The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " As the reports say , there was a player who took a cookie from a jar and that was paid for by the time the police arrived . It was something out of nothing but the players involved have been dealt with by myself and that 's the end of the matter . It was dealt with swiftly and it was not particularly serious otherwise it would have been dealt with by the police . " If nothing else , Cockerill says that it serves as a reminder that scrutiny follows players away from the pitch , particularly in this social-media age . Earlier this month , Waikato Chiefs , the New Zealand Super Rugby side , were at the centre of a controversy surrounding allegations that a stripper was abused at an end-of-season blowout known as " Mad Monday " . In comparison , Leicester 's behaviour was pretty tame . Yet whereas past generations may have used such a scrape for an anecdote for an after-dinner speech , today 's professionals are held to a far higher standard of behaviour . " It @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " We have seen it with ' Mad Monday ' in New Zealand , those days have gone now . It is what it is . You are a Leicester Tiger 24/7 and you are judged upon how you behave however good or bad that is . It is a lesson learnt for some young people about how those things can escalate . It made us all look a bit silly . " I have been there myself so I can understand how that happens , notwithstanding that we do n't accept or condone that type of behaviour . Those players have been dealt with and we move on . I would much rather it have not happened but our players do lots of good things as well . " Cockerill has a virtually full strength squad to select from for the visit to Kingsholm with Manu Tuilagi fit despite a tight hamstring although forwards Mike Williams , Mike Fitzgerald and fly-half Owen Williams are unavailable . Player welfare has become a major talking point before the start of a new season that will concludes with a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ More than most clubs , Leicester have suffered from the fallout of past tours . In the season following the 2013 series victory in Australia , Ben Youngs , Manu Tuilagi , Tom Croft , Geoff Parling and Dan Cole would all suffer significant injuries . Another heavy toll is all but inevitable with none of rugby 's stakeholders willing to give up the tiniest slice of their own pie to accommodate longer periods of rest , yet Cockerill argues that players as well as the clubs and unions also bear a responsibility for managing their schedule . " I hear about player welfare all the time but we seem to play more and more rugby , so at some point there 's got to be a scope of how many games the guys play and the intensity of those , " Cockerill said . " But the reality is that players want to play rugby , clubs do n't make money , owners do n't make money . " The people that actually make the most money out of the game are the players , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what they do . " I have suggested we play 25 per cent less games and they get paid 25 per cent less but they 're not so keen on that . " |

Archaeologists have unearthed the skeleton of a man with a shield and spear who is possibly among the first ' English ' to migrate to the area . The body of the man , believed to have died aged 18 to 20 , was found in a field near Nether Heyford . The apparently pagan burial rites he was given has led experts to believe he could be one of the first English people to move to Northamptonshire from the Kingdom of Mercia . Steve Young , archaeological director for CLASP , said : " We have excavated bodies from the area before and we thought we had explored all the cemetery area . But last year ploughing disturbed two more bodies . So we did exploratory work and found this burial . " The cemetery site has two burial areas . One is from the fifth century , with bodies laid out east to west . There are some objects buried @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but maybe hedging their bets . " The second , where these remains were , is from the sixth century -- 50 to 100 years later . They are buried north-south and are exclusively male and have shields , swords or spears . " The body we found was from a young man . He was buried with a spear and a small fighting shield . There does n't appear to be any trauma on his bones , nor any of the others we found in this area , so they probably did not die from injuries obtained during fighting . " The change in the type of burial comes from a big change in the population around that time . " In the post-Roman period there was a British kingdom in the area -- there is some evidence from Welsh sources . The burials in the earlier cemetery are likely to be ' foederati ' , people from Europe brought over here and paid to keep the peace . But the British appear to have abandoned the area -- possibly migrating @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In their place it seems people moved into the area from the neighbouring Kingdom of Mercia . The Mercian king did not convert to Christianity until the year 655 , so these ' warriors ' would be from a generation before that . " We believe they were connected to the nearby Roman Villa . It 's likely that when they arrived the building would have already been a ruin , but there might have been a few standing walls to use . We found evidence of ' squatters ' living in the villa 's bath house . " Over time they would have grown and expanded and built new homes and farms , and over time those settlements coalesced into the village of Nether Heyford . " Now the bones will be examined to see what else we can learn . We will be trying to get a carbon date for them , and possibly looking at the isotopes in his teeth to see where he grew up .

Archaeologists have unearthed the skeleton of a man with a shield and spear who is possibly among the first ' English ' to migrate to the area . The body of the man , believed to have died aged 18 to 20 , was found in a field near Nether Heyford . The apparently pagan burial rites he was given has led experts to believe he could be one of the first English people to move to Northamptonshire from the Kingdom of Mercia . Steve Young , archaeological director for CLASP , said : " We have excavated bodies from the area before and we thought we had explored all the cemetery area . But last year ploughing disturbed two more bodies . So we did exploratory work and found this burial . " The cemetery site has two burial areas . One is from the fifth century , with bodies laid out east to west . There are some objects buried @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but maybe hedging their bets . " The second , where these remains were , is from the sixth century -- 50 to 100 years later . They are buried north-south and are exclusively male and have shields , swords or spears . " The body we found was from a young man . He was buried with a spear and a small fighting shield . There does n't appear to be any trauma on his bones , nor any of the others we found in this area , so they probably did not die from injuries obtained during fighting . " The change in the type of burial comes from a big change in the population around that time . " In the post-Roman period there was a British kingdom in the area -- there is some evidence from Welsh sources . The burials in the earlier cemetery are likely to be ' foederati ' , people from Europe brought over here and paid to keep the peace . But the British appear to have abandoned the area -- possibly migrating @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In their place it seems people moved into the area from the neighbouring Kingdom of Mercia . The Mercian king did not convert to Christianity until the year 655 , so these ' warriors ' would be from a generation before that . " We believe they were connected to the nearby Roman Villa . It 's likely that when they arrived the building would have already been a ruin , but there might have been a few standing walls to use . We found evidence of ' squatters ' living in the villa 's bath house . " Over time they would have grown and expanded and built new homes and farms , and over time those settlements coalesced into the village of Nether Heyford . " Now the bones will be examined to see what else we can learn . We will be trying to get a carbon date for them , and possibly looking at the isotopes in his teeth to see where he grew up .

A Minion , Scooby-Doo and Tommy Cooper were spotted in Rennington , as the village held its annual bank-holiday scarecrow festival . The event , from Saturday to Monday , featured a host of eye-catching creations and highly-creative scenes , including a MasterChef display . There was also a nautical scene titled Small Ships Regatta Rennington 2016 -- which was a take on the Blyth Tall Ships Regatta , which was staged the same weekend . The festival raised up to ? 3,500 for the village hall and about ? 900 for the church . There was a collection for the Charlie Bear Cancer Appeal , raising ? 180 , while HospiceCare North Northumberland had a presence at the event . The festival is run by the village hall committee and organisers are bemoaning a wet Sunday morning , which kept visitors away for most of the day and impacted on takings . Committee chairman Wendy Swinney said : " Because of the rain , Sunday was a disaster and we did n't really get anybody @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ our takings are down this year , which is a shame because people put in a lot of hard work .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'edit the f---ing life out of everything' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate and does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to be a figurative expression about removing the essence or vitality from something through editing, which does not align with the defined properties of the construction.

of Gold in exclusive music session
Spring , 2014 , and Skye Edwards and Ross Godfrey are standing at the side of the main stage at an Australian Gold Coast music festival , coming down from their own set there a short while ago . " The headliners were playing a raw , gutsy set , " Ross recalls , " and we both thought , ' Would n't it be really fun to make a record that had this sort of intensity to it ? ' " For over a dozen years , he and Skye had been playing across the globe as Morcheeba , but Ross 's brother , Paul -- their co-producer , with whom they 'd founded the band -- had stayed at home . During this time , the inevitable separation between what happened in the studio and what happened live had become increasingly pronounced , and , as they observed the band beside them with delight , the singer and guitarist shared an epiphany . " Why do n't we make our records feel more live ? " The result of this revelation is SKYE ROSS , an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the roots of the sound that made Morcheeba a household name back in the late Nineties . It is , Ross explains , " what Skye and I do naturally when we make music together , and yet not necessarily a continuation of what we 'd been doing with Morcheeba . It therefore felt only right to give it a new identity . " Skye Edwards and Ross Godfrey It 's not the first time either of them has stepped outside of the safety of their familiar , long-term musical environment . Last year , Skye released her fourth solo album , In a Low Light , a beautifully subdued collection of luminous , electronic soul , while Ross stepped out with Little Mountain , a Laurel Canyon flavoured trio that also features his wife , Amanda Zamolo . The latter was particularly invigorating for Ross , reminding him of the spontaneity and joy that can exist during the recording process , and this was something he bore in mind when , in 2015 , he offered Skye the guitar part for what would become @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ back her vocals , Ross grins , " We knew we were onto a winner . Part of the skill of producing a record is knowing when to leave it alone , and we did n't have to edit it , change it , or add anything at all . " It was just an acoustic guitar and Skye 's voice . We were pinching ourselves ! ' Why was that so easy ? ! ' " For a while they toyed with the idea of making an " unplugged " record , but soon realised it would be possible to write something more ambitious . " We merely rejected the more modern recording techniques where you can literally edit the f---ing life out of everything , " Ross elaborates . " That just completely drains the soul . " So they made most of the record at their homes , much as they had before the big budget days of Morcheeba , and when they say that they kept things " in the family " , they 're not exaggerating : the only other musicians @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Skye 's husband , Steve ( bass ) ; Skye 's 19 year old son , Jaega ( drums ) ; Ross 's wife , Amanda ( backing vocals ) ; and Richard Milner , Morcheeba 's keyboard player for the last five years . " One of us just needs to adopt Richard , " Skye jokes , " and then everybody in the band will be related ! " Skye Edwards and Ross Godfrey What emerged recalls the essence of Morcheeba 's international , platinum-selling Big Calm , while boasting a revived spirit and the mature experience that comes with two decades of making music . Some of it , especially the quieter numbers , may be surprising : Clear My Mind offers a hint of Brazilian tropicalia , notably Milton Nascimento , while Medicine -- which features a gospel choir of multi-tracked Skyes , and a Hammond Organ solo from Milner that , Ross argues , could have been played by the E Street Band 's Danny Federici -- sounds like an Al Green number . The blissful opener , Repay the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's In a Silent Way , Mahavishnu guitarist John McLaughlin and Merry Clayton . They approached Skye 's voice in a new light , too , on stand out tracks like Light of Gold and Hold On . " It was all very organic , and I was able to push myself vocally , " Skye confirms . " Everything Ross sent inspired a melody and lyric almost immediately , whether it was a heavy fuzz guitar riff or intricate finger picking on an acoustic . I 've always got a real buzz from Ross 's playing : it 's an absolute joy performing live , so it was great to be able to capture that energy on record . " Of course , Ross has long been an outspoken fan of leftfield acts from Dinosaur Jr to Aphex Twin , and talks about how , in their early days , " we could bring in anything : minimal beats , country music , blues , whatever we wanted . It was a pretty blank canvas , and I feel like this record has gone back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ song ... " And among the things that feel right for these songs are big guitar solos , with Ross at last embracing the opportunity to place his fluid skills higher in the mix , just as they are during Morcheeba 's celebrated live shows . Still , that 's hardly surprising given that the baby sitar-soaked Feet First was inspired by reading Jimi Hendrix 's diaries from when he trained as a paratrooper . Ultimately , SKYE ROSS does n't signify the end of Morcheeba , but rather a purge of sorts , an opportunity for the two musicians who have represented the public face of their band to exploit the musical relationship that has developed between them outside of the studio on stages around the world . " Our intentions are really aligned , " Ross concludes , " and once you have that synchronicity with someone everything falls into place . " SKYE ROSS will be released on Fly Agaric Records / Cooking Vinyl on September 2. @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

A well-known and life-long Burnham Market photographer is extending his skills as he holds an exhibition of his drawings . Harry Cory Wright , whose recent photographic commissions include capturing a portrait gallery of the cast of the BBC TV epic War and Peace , and depicting some of Britain 's women Olympians before they went to Brazil , held a first major exhibition of his artwork at the Tin Shed at Creake Abbey last weekend . He said : " I 've taken up art in the last few years . I 'm fascinated by how opposite it is to photography . Mostly it is pen and ink with a few pastels . " He is aware that photography records what is there at the instant of the click of the shutter -- " It is of the moment " -- whilst drawing allows the artist much more room for imagination . His photography has taken him to many parts of the world but his camera bag is not full of the latest digital Nikons and Canons . His favourite tool is a large , old fashioned @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he used extensively to record spectacular landscapes round the British Isles some years ago and which became a major book , Journey Through the British Isles . It was a months-long trek from the Shetland Isles to Cornwall during which he recorded everything from wild mountain ranges , to dewy forests at sunrise and windswept beaches . But he has also humped his large camera much further a field . Another book , A Vantage Point , the photographs of which were exhibited at the Saachi Gallery , took him on a journey through China , India , Africa and Brazil . The work in this exhibition explores more than what he has recorded with a camera over the years . It takes the viewer beyond the actuality of the photographed scene to what Cory Wright expertly visualises in his mind 's eye .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' followed by a gerund phrase 'receiving Cookies', which does not involve a causer and causee relationship or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

A well-known and life-long Burnham Market photographer is extending his skills as he holds an exhibition of his drawings . Harry Cory Wright , whose recent photographic commissions include capturing a portrait gallery of the cast of the BBC TV epic War and Peace , and depicting some of Britain 's women Olympians before they went to Brazil , held a first major exhibition of his artwork at the Tin Shed at Creake Abbey last weekend . He said : " I 've taken up art in the last few years . I 'm fascinated by how opposite it is to photography . Mostly it is pen and ink with a few pastels . " He is aware that photography records what is there at the instant of the click of the shutter -- " It is of the moment " -- whilst drawing allows the artist much more room for imagination . His photography has taken him to many parts of the world but his camera bag is not full of the latest digital Nikons and Canons . His favourite tool is a large , old fashioned @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he used extensively to record spectacular landscapes round the British Isles some years ago and which became a major book , Journey Through the British Isles . It was a months-long trek from the Shetland Isles to Cornwall during which he recorded everything from wild mountain ranges , to dewy forests at sunrise and windswept beaches . But he has also humped his large camera much further a field . Another book , A Vantage Point , the photographs of which were exhibited at the Saachi Gallery , took him on a journey through China , India , Africa and Brazil . The work in this exhibition explores more than what he has recorded with a camera over the years . It takes the viewer beyond the actuality of the photographed scene to what Cory Wright expertly visualises in his mind 's eye . Exhibition curator Davina Barber , of Norfolk by Design , which is dedicated to showcasing Norfolk artists and designers , said : " Everyone knows his is a very talented photographer .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'takes the guesswork out of buying a bottle' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a general benefit of buying organic wines.

Giving Organic September the green light and choosing to buy organic wines not only takes the guesswork out of buying a bottle that may contain pesticides and chemicals , it may even taste better . With more of us choosing to buy organic - according to the Soil Association 's Organic Market Report , sales of organic beers , wines and spirits saw an increase of 5.35% in 2015 - it could be that organic wines are not only earth-friendly , but we prefer the taste of the grapes . " Recent news has told us again and again that organic wines taste better - perhaps due to the way they are made , with less intensive production using fewer synthetic chemicals , " says Lee Holdstock , trade association manager , Soil Association . " Some believe that the ' terroir ' , the unique environment and farming practices used to grow the grapes , affects the quality of the wine . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ earth in wine , and as organic farming keeps the soil at its core , it makes sense that organic wines should taste more of earthy goodness than others . " One of the best Italian varieties from southern Italy , Fiano is one those bone dry , delicately fragrant whites you want to drink all year long . A beautiful expression , try Zensa Fiano Organic 2015 , which displays peaches and blossom on the nose , with mango and peach flavours and a touch of exotic fruit , with an oily texture that 's balanced by zesty acidity . |

The sentence 'Faith talked her out of walking off the show' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Here, 'Faith' is the NP subject, 'talked' is V1, 'her' is the NP object, and 'walking off the show' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. The interpretation is prevention (Faith prevented her from walking off the show), and the verb 'talked' fits the category of means by verbal persuasion. The NP object 'her' is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

A chef who sat the driving test theory exam , pretending to be someone else , has avoided a custodial sentence at Selkirk Sheriff Court ( pictured ) . Chun Chung , 35 , claimed he was persuaded by a migrant worker friend who had a poor grasp of English to take the exam in his place . But the ruse was quickly uncovered and Chung , of Hogganfield , Glasgow , pleaded guilty to a charge of attempting to obtain a pass in a car theory test by fraud on January 28 . He admitted inducing two staff members at the Driving Standards Agency offices in Galashiels to allow him to take the exam under the name of Qiao Hua Jiang , also 35 . Defence lawyer Colm Dempsey said : " He was a friend of a migrant worker who had come here with his family and needed a driving licence , but had failed the theory test due to his lack of English .

" He was just doing it to assist , rather than get financial gain . He would not have sat the actual practical test itself .

Sheriff Peter Paterson said Chung 's actions were a " danger to the general public and could have had fatal consequences . " He ordered Chung to carry out 200 hours of unpaid work as a direct alternative to custody and made a 20-month supervision order .

Since the publication in book form of a collection of articles from this column , which has been a success , albeit a modest one , contributing funds to the Ryedale Book Festival , two questions have been put to me . Will there be a second volume and is n't it time that I gave up writing the column ? The first is the more easily dealt with . Although there is enough material for another book , almost enough for two , there will not be a second volume . Sales of the first have exceeded our expectations , but it is likely that many who bought copies did so primarily because they were attracted to the idea of contributing to a cause of which they approved . Another " appeal " would be unlikely to be as successful as the first . I know that there are readers who have disliked some of the things that I have written , perhaps because they disapprove of a light-hearted approach to serious matters . This or that is not a joking matter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I suspect , find self-mockery and self-deprecation , both of which I indulge in , incomprehensible . They have an easy solution -- do n't read what I write . As long as my arthritic old fingers can hit the keys and my rheumy old eyes focus on the page I shall carry on in the only way I know how . While it is true that there are some things that will not bear the weight of a joke -- child abuse and rape are cases in point -- there are others that can slip in and out of that category according to changing circumstances or changed times . Joking about death is fine , but not in the presence of the bereaved -- the circumstance and good manners are our guide . Jewish humour is now tricky . Jewish jokes can be extremely funny , as anyone who has read The Joys of Yiddish by Leo Rosten will know . When I was at Hull Grammar School there was a large number of Jews among the boys , boys who could be seen during the winter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sabbath before darkness fell . We would tease them for being allowed this concession , they would taunt us because we were not . Any incidents of anti-Semitism , and I personally witnessed few , would be robustly dealt with . In those post war years many of our teachers had served during the war and had a very uncomfortable time of it ; they had strong views on the matter . Not many years ago I attended a memorial event following the death of a friend , a renowned Jewish psychiatrist ( a stock figure of fun ) and at that event I heard several hilarious jokes , mostly of the self-deprecating sort , about anxious tailors and hypochondriac doctors , that kind of thing . But I also heard something else , which surprised me -- uncertainty about the future and the possibility that they might have to move on , and uncertainty about where they might go . New York seemed popular . They , the family and friends , had sensed something that I had not , I suppose because they were more sensitive than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in concentration camps . Things now seem to be bubbling to the surface . The emergence of anti-Semitism in the Labour Party is very worrying ; much more so is the failure of the Party 's leadership to confront it . On a personal note , my mother when she left school took a job as an assistant in a greengrocery owned by a Jewish family , the Tallimans . She got to know the family well and after a while used to nip around to their house on the Sabbath to put coal on their fire and perform other tasks forbidden to them . On one occasion she " witnessed " circumstantial evidence of adultery , a staged event common at the time , and her testimony in due course was used in court to secure a divorce . I never met anyone from the Talliman family . My mother gave up work to start a family , but I know that she kept in touch in a vague way . Christmas cards , oddly . When my mother died , many years later when I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ surprise several Tallimans showed up at her funeral , and to greater surprise knew quite a lot about me .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes a situation where escape ladders are provided for people to exit burning buildings, but there is no NP object functioning as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Tomorrow is the 350th anniversary of the Great Fire of London -- the day our city burned to the ground . Huge areas of the capital were ablaze from September 2 to the 5 in 1666 , after a fire started at a bakery on Pudding Lane . Wind blew the flames across London at an unprecedented rate , causing the fire to spread so quickly that everyone was at a loss for what to do . People were attempting to put out the blaze with leather buckets , water squirts and axes , but it obviously was n't enough . In the end , the fire caused around ? 10million worth of damage and displaced as many as 80,000 residents . But if you occasionally panic about a Great Fire wreaking havoc again , fear not -- it 's pretty unlikely that this could happen in the 21st century . A receipt for a donation to the Lord Mayor 's fire relief fund ( Picture : Museum of London ) It 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in 1666 insurance companies did n't exist . But as you can probably imagine , tens of thousands of people losing their homes and livelihoods in a massive fire was probably a bit of a wake-up call -- and the first proper insurance company was set up just a year later , in 1667 . It was appropriately called Phoenix , and was established by Dr Nicholas Barbone -- a doctor who was instrumental in the rebuilding of London . It was located in a small office behind the Royal Exchange . Soon , there were a number of competing insurance companies in the city offering protection against fires -- which were , at the time , really common . And because of these early insurance companies , we also have ... It 's nice having a fire brigade , like this one from around 1900 ( Picture : Getty Images ) Apparently King Charles II was even seen trying to help put out the fire ( although that 's according to diarist Samuel Pepys @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In any case , it 's unlikely things will ever get so desperate that Queen Liz will have to come down from Windsor to try and navigate a hose . This is largely because the first insurance companies formed their own fire brigades -- the first organised firefighting services -- to try and minimise the level of damage to the properties they insured , thereby limiting the costs that would fall on the company . London County Council Fire Brigade Committee starting on an inspection , in around 1903 ( Picture : Getty Images ) Things were a little bit more capitalistic in the late 1660s , so it took a while for firefighters to put out all fires , rather than just leaving uninsured buildings to burn to a crisp . Fortunately they soon realised that if an uninsured building is on fire , that fire could quickly spread to insured buildings and cost them money . So they started putting out fires on all buildings , just to be safe . Eventually , in 1833 , 10 private fire insurance companies united to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is a bit better now We 've come a long way since 1666 ( Picture : Getty Images ) As well as being totally privately run , these firefighters were n't really trained properly and only had very basic equipment to work with . It was n't until 1721 that Richard Newsham developed and patented a ' new water engine for the quenching and extinguishing of fires ' . This was basically a pump that could , with quite a bit of effort , produce a continuous jet of water -- something that had never been possible before . In 1828 the newly-formed Royal Society for the Protection of Life from Fire ( RSPLF ) started providing escape ladders for people to get out of burning buildings . They could be up to around 60ft high , and firefighters had to receive training for around six months in order to operate them safely . As you can imagine , things have only improved since then . Now firefighters have a raft of equipment at their disposal when dealing with an emergency . Specifically -- we have lightbulbs and electric heaters . In the 17th century people relied on open fireplaces and candles for light and to keep warm . And ovens , although still a fire risk of course , are generally a bit safer now as they 're contained and heated electrically . The bread oven that started the Great Fire , however , would have been heated with an open fire . In 1666 , London was basically a massive matchbox ( Picture : Museum of London ) Obviously buildings can still catch fire -- but at least they 're not densely packed , wooden boxes with thatched roofs . It was already forbidden to build foundries , smithies and glaziers in densely populated areas even in the 17th century , but people were n't really that bothered about health and safety -- so they just flouted the rules and built them anyway . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the Foreign Secretary's career as being characterized by playing the bumbling fool, which is not an instance of the construction under discussion.

The recently appointed Foreign Secretary - yes that was n't a bad dream , it actually happened - has made a career out of playing the bumbling fool , whilst at the same time engaging in highly divisive , and some may say devious , politicking . It is enough to make you wonder whether he plays up to his comic persona to weirdly charm and endear himself to large sections of the general public , thus allowing himself carte blanc to do whatever he likes because it 's just ' Boris being Boris ' . That said , surely his latest blunder ca n't have been planned . Mainly because it only serves to paint him a vacuous surface politician with no real substance nor firm believes - which is exactly what he has been accused of since the EU referendum . Johnson was pictured sat beside Prime Minister Theresa May during a specially convened cabinet meeting , specifically arranged in order to " brainstorm " Brexit , and strategically plan for the UK 's departure from the European Union . Boris certainly looked the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was seated there so May could keep an eye on him ) ; he was seen banging on the table in agreement as his leader name-checked both Team GB 's Olympians and Paralympians .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase 'receiving Cookies', but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee.

850 of scratch cards to help pay off debt
A newsagent worker stole ? 850 worth of scratch cards to help pay off a mounting debt , a court was told . Jessica Mitchell , 24 , worked at Select and Save on Shireoaks Row , Shireoaks , when she was caught stealing the lucrative gambling cards .

The court was told that she had since ended the relationship , had got a new job and her grandmother had paid off her debt , to whom Mitchell was now paying back . District Judge Tim Spruce told her : " It 's clear you have reflected on what has happened and have shown remorse , but it 's a serious offence and involved a breach of trust .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', where 'receiving Cookies' is a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' followed by a gerund phrase 'receiving Cookies', which does not involve a causer and causee relationship or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', where 'receiving Cookies' is a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

Dybala , who had almost put his side ahead in the 31st minute with a shot that hit the post , was sent off for a second booking and left the pitch in tears in what was his first start for Argentina .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' followed by a gerund phrase 'receiving Cookies', which does not involve a causer and causee relationship or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The expletive-filled , ... rant that followed transfixed a nation .

Cundy 's rant was one of the most memorable moments of the 2012 ParalympicsCredit : PA He turned to his coach , Chris Furber , who tried to calm him down . But Cundy continued : " I fell out of the gate because the f------ gate did n't open . Everybody else gets the f------ re-ride -- you do n't know the half of it . Do you know what it 's like ? Four years of my life . I 'll never get this opportunity ever , ever , ever again . " Fast forward to the present day and Cundy still shakes his head when remembering the moment he suffered the most public , and painful , of meltdowns . " I still do n't understand the decision , " he says , with a shake of the head . The cyclist put his retirement plans on hold after the incidentCredit : onEdition " I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

That bit annoyed me because , if I went early , it 's a false start and you get a second start . It does n't add up , and I never got to race . That 's the bit that really ticks me off . Cundy still shakes his head when remembering the moment he suffered the most public , and painful , of meltdowns " I do n't think I will ever be as angry , but at that point I did n't know what to do . I could have walked off but all of the people who supported me would have thought , ' Why the hell are we doing this ? He just does n't care ' .

Yet the build-up to these Games has not been without controversy . Shane Sutton , the former British Cycling head coach , was subjected to a rash of allegations regarding his behaviour , including the suggestion that he referred to para-cyclists as " wobblies " and " gimps " . He denied the claims but still resigned . Cundy , for his part , does not deny that Sutton could be blunt and paid little heed to political correctness , but stops short of endorsing his decision to quit .

Cundy was ready to retire , but now wants to claim back his title from Beijing 2008 " I have heard it from other athletes -- para and able-bodied -- there 's a story from everyone . It 's almost like a running joke that people know what Shane is like . You understand that he will say something that 's a little bit out of context . What 's out of context for some people is really offensive for somebody else . " Fortunately it has n't appeared to have changed the atmosphere of the velodrome . You ca n't live in the past where people got away with that , but Shane brought a certain respect and authority that you understood because you knew he did n't take any s--- .

Rio will be his sixth time representing Great Britain and Cundy has designed a new leg for the competition , complete with a treasure map and pirate theme -- a path to gold . " It goes back to when I was a kid at the beach , " he reveals . " I used to walk down the beach with a leg off and I would always get called Long John Silver because I had a pegleg .

I 'm hoping I 'll get the gold , everyone who goes to the Games does . The only thing that 's stopping me is myself .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'rule women out of playing sports' uses 'out of' followed by a gerund, but the verb 'rule' does not fit the semantic classes of verbs typically used in the construction, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations. Additionally, the context suggests a different meaning, focusing on exclusion rather than causation or prevention.

British breasts are ... bigger , with an annual survey indicating the average woman 's bra size has increased from a 36C to a 36DD -- an increase in mass of around 430g . Research has shown that having larger breasts can put some women off participating in sports or exercise and even compromise sports performance . Sports bras are extremely important for women in competitive sports , but they 're also of significant benefit for all women who exercise . Scroll down for video Research has shown that having larger breasts can put some women off participating in sports or exercise and even compromise sports performance . Sports bras are extremely important for women in competitive sports , but they 're also of significant benefit for all women who exercise When women workout , their toros moves around in different directions and at different speeds .

So as a woman is working out , her breasts independently with the motion of their torso - this is where sports bras are helpful . Sports bras are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and even help improve sports performance . Compared to typical bras , today 's sports bras are the products of considerable scientific and technological research . Sports bra design and innovation has moved on greatly from the first general exercise bra developed by Lisa Lindahl and Polly Smith in 1977 , which was in fact two jockstraps sewed together . Recent developments include seamless knitting , and even tiny sensors and built-in actuators that alter the level of support the bra provides as required . Some sports bras today contain nanostructured textile sensors that communicate with your smart phone to monitor your cardiac health , and even help to detect breast cancers . During exercise , a woman 's torso moves in many different directions at different speeds . Since breasts contain no muscle and have limited internal support , they are essentially a mass of soft tissue that moves independently of , but is driven by , the motion of the torso . It 's this movement that sports bras and other support clothing works to reduce , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ independent of the rest of the body .

Recent developments include seamless knitting , and even tiny sensors and built-in actuators that alter the level of support the bra provides as required This can minimise discomfort or pain , and even improve sports performance . It 's been shown that over a distance of 5km a sports bra can improve running technique , making it more economical compared to an everyday bra .

However , sports bras reduce the movement . Brandi Chastain ( pictured ) of Team USA celebrates winning the Women 's World cup in 1999 Almost one third of 1,300 female runners who registered for the London Marathon in 2013 said they experienced breast pain when exercising . Perhaps unsurprisingly , the proportion that complained of discomfort rose with increasing cup size , The British Medical Journal reported . Half of those with a cup size of F or larger complained of pain , compared with one in four of those with an A size cup . While half blamed the pain on their menstrual cycle , three in 10 said it was associated with unsupportive underwear , with nine out of 10 wearing a sports bra . Half of the women surveyed said they experienced breast pain during moderate exercise while almost two thirds said their breasts were painful during vigorous exercise . As many as one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' excruciating ' and one in six said it put them off exercising . A greater mass on the front of the body places additional strain on the posterior chain -- the muscles that run down the back of the body that are key to correct posture . If these muscles have to work harder , this increased effort will require more energy . For sportswomen , this essentially means carrying additional body mass that offers only a performance penalty rather than any gain . In sports that require pound-for-pound strength and whole body locomotion such as gymnastics , athletics or many field sports , women with larger breasts may be at a slight disadvantage . It 's been shown that over a distance of 5km a sports bra can improve running technique , making it more economical compared to an everyday bra .

I will be 40 next year , and I am in the midst of a mid-life crisis . How do I know this ? It 's not because my idea of a party is staying in with a good Merlot and my complimentary copy of Waitrose Weekend . It 's not because I sometimes put Radio 6 Music on extra loud , in the hope my cool young neighbours will think I 'm still a hep cat . And it 's not because I have multiple sexual fantasies about being trapped in a lift with the tall one out of the Making A Murderer lawyers . Although all these things are true . No , my friends , it 's much worse than that . The other day , I bought a Pok ? mon Go T-shirt . In my defence , it 's not just any Pok ? mon Go T-shirt . It 's an amusing parody of the label for Sriracha chilli sauce , featuring popular bipedal reptilian Charmander . Or as he 's named here , Sriracharmander . Do you see ? Oh @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it ? Guilty as charged . I might as well have hired the tall one from Making A Murderer to get me off . Ahem . Ellie Gibson , yesterday . It 's not even like I spotted the T-shirt in a shop and snapped it up on a whim . I saw a photo of it on Twitter , and searched until I found the relevant website , and filled out my credit card details , and paid for it to be sent over from America . Truly , this is the middle-aged games journalist 's equivalent of buying a yellow sports car and using Grecian 2000 to dye your pubes . At the time , it seemed like a great idea . I love Pok ? mon Go , and I thought the design was cool . But I 've yet to wear it out in public . I worry about what it looks like I 'm trying to say - " Hey , everyone ! I may be nearly 40 , but I love video games designed for children ! Also , sauce that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , there 's still a bit of me that 's ashamed of liking video games . Which is ludicrous , obviously . For starters , I 've made a whole career out of liking them . Plus , loads of people play games these days , and billions of them play Pok ? mon Go . For evidence of this , you have only to look at the internet , which is now entirely comprised of players ' guides and alarmist articles about people accidentally stabbing their eyes out with scissors while trying to catch a Dewgong . She thinks if she teams it with a Baukjen jacket it 's high fashion , the prick . What 's more , I know for a fact that at least some of the people playing Pok ? mon Go are cool . On my way home from the pub the other night , while pausing to nab my 9847th Pidgey , I was approached by a very handsome and dapper young dude . Still , I ca n't shake the feeling that loving games is something to be kept @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at secondary school . Like every other video games journalist , stand-up comedian , and glasses wearer I have ever met , I was badly bullied . Not beaten up at the bus stop or waterboarded in the toilet . Just , you know , systematically humiliated , ridiculed , and excluded in a million subtle and agonising ways , etc . To put it in context , all the girls in my class were into the Just Seventeen problem page , Dewberry lip balm , and whether or not Ben Rilletts from the school up the road really did only have one bollock . Meanwhile , I had a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles backpack . My best friend was a secondhand Amstrad CPC 464 . I did n't just watch Knightmare , I read all the books , and did the **25;429;TOOLONG bits at the back multiple times , to get all the different endings . And I went to an all-girls comprehensive in South-East London . What chance did I have ? I was reminded of this recently when I was a guest on Checkpoints @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . He asked about any times in my life when games have healed me , and I scoffed at him for being a daft hippy . She gets ? 25,000 a time for wearing this . But then I remembered that time when the bullying was really bad , and my Mum took me to the Bromley Glades , " for a treat . " I came home with an Amstrad CPC 464 copy of New Zealand Story . It was a game I had spent many happy hours with on my friend Rosalind 's Amiga , back when I was still at primary school , and still had friends . For the rest of that weekend , I forgot all about the horrors waiting for me on Monday morning , lost in the blissful reverie of pretending to be a tiny chick fighting a giant walrus on a hot air balloon just outside Christchurch . In fact , video games have seen me through many dark times , from bullying and breakups to being unemployed and three-hour breastfeeding sessions in the middle of the night @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ through my mid-life crisis , and I should just embrace that . So I shall don my Sriracharmander T-shirt with pride and walk the streets of South-East London , where I still live due to financial constraints . Perhaps I will bump into one of those bullies from school , and perhaps they will laugh at me . Ellie spent nearly a decade working at Eurogamer , specialising in hard-hitting executive interviews and nob jokes . These days she does a comedy show and podcast . She pops back now and again to write the odd article and steal our biscuits . |

The verb 'talk' is classified under means of verbal persuasion, and the NP object 'his caring niece' is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

" The situation ... is in just now is that he does n't have a strong match , " Melanie says . " I 'm not a match . " Registering is quick , easy and could literally save someone 's life so I hope that Lucy 's gesture will encourage others to take action . " Family support : George celebrated her brave head shave with Lucy on September 2 . While George tried to talk his caring niece out of shaving her head on his behalf , the family stood by the determined Scots decision , enjoying ice creams on the house at Billington 's in Lenzie after the trip to the hairdressers . " The view myself and my husband took was that if Lucy really wanted to do it , it would n't be fair to take that away from her , " Melanie says . " She is not a silly little girl , she has had it explained to her . " We have been very honest that it will take time for her hair to grow back . " She was like ' Mummy , it is only hair , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " She is doing it for George and to potentially save his life or somebody else 's . Mum Melanie adds : " I ca n't express how proud of her I am . She is just an amazing little girl , it is just so selfless . " Lucy enjoyed a well deserved ice cream after the fundraising challenge which has raised thousands . The risk of myeloma increases with age and it is most commonly diagnosed after the age of 65 . It is rare for people under the age of 40 to be diagnosed so the news came as a shock for George , his wife Heather and one-year-old son Mitchell . While the family gathered around to support Lucy with her fundraising challenge , Lucy plans to return this support and be there for her uncle during the next stage of his treatment . " I did n't want my uncle George to do it head shave only with boys , I wanted to be the first girl to do it and I love my uncle George and that will never @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said I 'm amazing and really , really kind - my teacher and I stood at the front of the class as she wanted the whole class to know what I was doing and why .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'forced out of farming' where 'farming' is a noun, not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object between 'forced' and 'out of farming', and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations of the transitive out of -ing construction.

through the ranks to become manager of Lancashire holiday park
A WOMAN who could barely speak a word of English when she started working as a cleaner at a South Lakes holiday park is celebrating after rising through the ranks to the top . Zuzana Terry , 36 , from Slovakia , only knew the basics of the English language when she got a job cleaning the facilities at Fell End Caravan Park at Hale , near Milnthorpe , in 2005 . Within a short space of time she began helping out in the on-site shop before being promoted to duty manager in 2008 . Two years later , the park 's owners , Pure Leisure Group , moved her across to South Lakeland Leisure Village - the group 's flagship 60-acre lodge development near Carnforth . After taking on the role of head housekeeper , she was promoted again to work on the holiday booking side of the business but bosses were so impressed that when the role of general manager came available this month , she was given the top job . " I could n't believe it . It was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said Mrs Terry , who grew up in Sobrance in Slovakia , but now lives in Carnforth . " When I first moved here I hardly spoke a word of English and I did n't really know what a caravan or a lodge was . That meant I had to learn everything from scratch and I think it 's given me a huge advantage to have worked my way up and to understand how all the elements of the business work . " Mrs Terry , who recently married Matthew , the head grounds man at South Lakeland Leisure Village , said she had a number of hopes for her new role but would concentrate on ' putting people first ' . " I have loved all of my jobs because I like working with people . I 'm not afraid of hard work and I know every person in the team has an important role to play in keeping a lovely place like this running smoothly . " Pure Leisure Group owner John Morphet said : " The key to success in any business is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ something she 's afraid of . I started from scratch myself after being forced out of farming due to an accident and I recognise her determination and drive to do well .

Reasoning

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It describes Jack Grealish sitting out of training due to an injury, which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action. Thus, it does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction.

Jack Grealish is sitting out of training with the England under-21s after injuring his knee on international duty . The Aston Villa winger is with Gareth Southgate 's squad ahead of the UEFA European U21 Championship Group 9 qualifier against Norway at Colchester on Tuesday night . Grealish posted news of his injury on Instagram today . It is only believed to be a minor knock for the 20-year-old , who is still hoping to be involved in Tuesday 's match . Since coming on as a substitute in the opening day defeat Sheffield Wednesday , Grealish has started all of Villa 's league and cup games this season , scoring in the win over Rotherham and the defeat to Bristol City . The Bodymoor Heath academy graduate is anxious to make up for lost time after struggling to make an impact last season . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', which is a different construction where 'opt out of' is followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks the necessary NP object and does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction's criteria for movement/extraction or prevention interpretations.

There were new signings . Both offered plenty and both played well . But as the full-time whistle blew it was the same old story for Boston United . Midweek arrivals Liam Agnew and Dion-Curtis Henry - for parts of today 's contest - looked as if they could refresh the Pilgrims ' flagging fortunes , possibly help the team to just their second win of the season . But as the full-time whistle blew FC United of Manchester left the Jakemans Stadium with the 3-2 win and the points , comdemning Dennis Greene 's side to defeat number six from eight games played and dropping a place to 18th . Frustrations are starting to boil over in Boston . As Greene left the pitch , flanked by a steward on each side , some supporters gathered to call for his head , others applauded .

It 's not been the happiest of starts to the season for the Pilgrims boss , but today both of his midweek dealings performed well . Agnew took just 28 minutes to find the net on his return to the Jakemans Stadium , confidently slotting his penalty kick down to middle and away from the dive of Jonathan Musangu .

snap general election and warns of ' difficult times '
THERESA May has categorically ruled out a snap general election before 2020 , ending speculation that she might exploit the chaos within Labour to secure an early personal mandate . In her first major interview since taking office , the Prime Minister tells today 's Andrew Marr show the country needs a period of stability after the Brexit vote . May also insists Scottish people do not want another vote on independence . Pressed on whether she would back a second referendum , she said : " I do n't think it 's a question of whether there could be , I think it 's a question of whether there should be . Loading article content " And I think if you look at some of the results that are now coming out of polling in Scotland , they suggest that the Scottish people do n't want there to be a second referendum . " A YouGov poll last week found only 37 per cent of Scots adults wanted indyref2 before Brexit , and 46 per cent would vote Yes next time . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ economy , May also warned the UK must prepare for " difficult times " ahead . " I 'm not going to pretend that it 's all going to be plain sailing , " she said . The PM said Brexit would involve controls on the free movement of people from the EU to Britain . That puts her on a collision course with Nicola Sturgeon , who on Friday said full access to the single market - which would be curbed by movement controls - was essential for Scotland . Ruling out a second EU referendum , May said Brexit Secretary David Davis would make a statement to MPs this week on possible withdrawal terms , and the kind of relationship the UK wants with the EU . The First Minister will also make a statement to MSPs about Brexit on Wednesday . Pressed on whether she was tempted to call a snap election with polls showing she could increase her majority from 17 to 130 , May said : " I 'm not going to be calling a snap election . I 've @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of time , that stability - to be able to deal with the issues that the country is facing and have that election in 2020 . " She said the EU referendum result showed voters would not accept free movement of labour . " They want to see controls of movement of people coming in from the European Union . Now , obviously we 're looking at what - what those options are , what that might be . " But people also want to see the job opportunities , to see the economic opportunities , and so getting a good deal in trading goods and services is also obviously important for us .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes a situation where locals are at risk of being priced out or turfed out, which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move or preventing them from doing something as per the construction's definition. The phrases 'priced out of moving' and 'turfed out of rented properties' do not align with the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

holidays begin to wind down , things are not quite so hectic on Margate Main Sands as they were over the bank holiday weekend .
There are still plenty of children chasing footballs , kites and splashing in the water that glistens in the mid-morning sun , but the scene is somewhat calmer ; there 's a buzz but without the mayhem . Perhaps Britain 's most iconic seaside town , Margate is rapidly becoming home to your stereotypical capital hipster after one of the most significant regeneration boosts in recent history . A rollercoaster history has seen the town go from being the ultimate British holiday destination in the 1960s and 70s to experiencing a dramatic decline , to now being something of a hub for a contemporary subculture . Margate , Kent Picture : Gareth Fuller/PA Despite ongoing complications with its centrepiece ride and its finances , there 's no doubt the restoration of Dreamland amusement park has been of huge economic benefit , with thousands flocking to the seaside resort in the summer months . A pebble 's throw over the beach of course stands the Turner Contemporary Gallery , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ town up from its knees to a destination targeted by thousands of DFLs ( Down From Londoners ) . Bored of Shoreditch now that it 's become too mainstream , bearded and tattooed twenty-somethings are instead heading down to the Kent coast - conveniently accessible in less than 90 minutes thanks to Southeastern 's high speed trains - to get their fix of trendy bars , unorthodox restaurants and edgy art . But while an influx of ' fresh money ' is essential to kick-start revival , there is a growing sense among the native communities that their needs are being placed second behind those of the occasional visitor . Dreamland at dusk Margate is far from alone in this pursuit or the problems they cause . Folkestone is just a few steps behind as it looks to throw off its own decline with arts-led regeneration . And up on the north Kent coast , Whitstable has , in the space of just 20 years , gone from modest working harbour town to one of the hottest towns in the country . In July , 80,000 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sky rocketed , forcing families to leave and usher in a capital crowd . A once functional high street is now jam packed with specialist food or drink outlets and fashion boutiques . And that resentment of the gentrification of the area is bubbling just below the surface in all three areas . Last month saw Margate become home to the smallest pub in Britain - precisely the type of unique selling point needed to attract those much-needed wealthy customers from the capital . Owned by Andy Barrett and run day-to-day by Ali Noone , The Little Prince , hidden away inside The Old Kent Market - a revamped indoor market area directly opposite the Turner - pinched the crown of tiniest pub with its 11ft by 6.6ft ( 3m by 2m ) interior , meaning approximately only six people at a time can fit in . Wheelers Oyster Bar , Whitstable Ms Noone herself only moved down from London three years ago and was staggered by the change in the town she left as a youngster . " When I left here 27 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a dump , " she told KoS . " Apparently it was really good in the 60s and 70s but then just died a death , and now it 's been seriously revived . " There 's a really good vibe here , micropubs are popping up , the Old Town looks great , it really has changed a lot . Harbour at Folkestone " Business for us has been quiet the last few days , dead slow , we visited on Wednesday but over the bank holiday it was banging . " We 're starting to get local regulars but people from all over the country are coming in , I guess it is quite an attraction . " Even though it 's so small it really feels like a pub , it 's got a really cool vibe about it . " We had people queuing to get in over the weekend when we 've only been here a few weeks . Clearly word travels fast . " " The Turner has had a dramatic effect on revitalising the area @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , " he said . " There might be empty buildings at the moment , but they 've been bought and will be used , they 're not for sale . " This artistic regeneration is absolutely influenced by those DFLs but it 's wrong to assume they are all middle class snobs . " They come and use the Sands Hotel and there 's demand for more hotel space , and ones of high quality , that 's blindingly obvious . " There 's an assumption that the crowds at the Tuner are not compatible with Dreamland and vice-versa but that 's absolutely not the case , increasing numbers are visiting both . " Dreamland 's very deliberate ' vintage ' feel - part fuelled by necessity of super-tight budgets , but conveniently chiming with the apparent insatiable demand for all things ' retro ' among the capital 's trendsetters - is an interesting dilemma . Few would argue its image , and even pricing structure , has been designed very much to lure in the Turner visitor on their way back from the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the company which operated the park would perhaps suggest pandering to the taste of the DfL brigade has been a costly error rather than simply delivering a park which would pull in repeat local custom and provide a more compelling ' commercial ' proposition to the people of the county . However , while booming business elsewhere may appear to be only good news , it does come at a cost , and Margate could become something of a victim of its own success . The increased interest of DFLs has seen house prices in the Thanet town driven up 12 per cent in a year , according to research by property website Zoopla earlier this summer . Even Cliftonville , one of the most deprived wards in the county , is seeing a knock-on effect . Consequently , locals that have lived in the area for decades are at risk of being priced out of moving to another part of town or even turfed out of rented properties . " I was speaking to a couple who were down from London at the weekend @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an investment , " Ms Noone added . " Everywhere you go in the Docklands , there 's big advertisements for Margate , because you do wonder how all these Londoners know about it . " It seems like there 's so many people moving down , they think ' oh wow it is pretty cool ' and they want to stay and invest . " This couple said there 's a tenant in their property who has been there for eight years and ultimately they want to claim it back . " So they 've given them two years ' notice which is pretty reasonable , but that 's not going to happen across the board , people are going to be kicked out of their homes and I do feel for them . " If someone comes in and says ' right we 've bought the property and we need you out , you 've got a couple of months to find somewhere else ' that 's so difficult for someone who 's enjoyed living there for years . " Property prices @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . But while every houseowner wants to see their investment rise in price , once again a boom often means a bust for families who have lived in certain towns for generations but simply can not afford to buy properties in a market where second homes or ' investments ' are made by those for whom a one-bedroom flat in Chelsea equates to a six-bedroom detached down here . Conservative MP Sir Roger told us there were both positives and negatives to an ' out with the old , in with the new ' approach but that it important we remain alert to just where the county 's limited housing stock is going . " What happened in London , and what will happen in Margate , is these wonderful Victorian and Edwardian houses currently of multiple occupancy will be turned into family houses , " he said . " If they come and put money into the area by buying these properties and renovating them , that 's going to create jobs locally and it lifts the whole area . " Yes , we have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ living in a one bedroom flat in misery , we want them to have jobs , earn decent money and buy proper homes . " But the danger is , if we are not careful , London boroughs will buy or rent from opportunistic landlords . " And there is a genuine danger - earlier this year Canterbury council chiefs were left fuming after losing out on 208 properties at the former Howe Barracks in the city to the London Borough of Redbridge which submitted a more comprehensive bid , as a result of its greater resources . Therefore hundreds of families on the council 's waiting list were pipped to housing by people living some 60 miles away . Sir Roger has previously warned that the district could become " a dumping ground " for the capital 's population overspill and again told us he does fear " problem families " being dumped in Westwood Cross and at Manston , were Stone Hill Park 's plans to regenerate the former airport site given the green light . " I want to see Thanet homes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he said . The good news is that Kent County Council 's regeneration chief , Mark Dance , hinted that there could be more such housing on the horizon in the not-too-distant future . " There are various options coming onto the table to sort out that situation people being priced out and we are loosely negotiating with others for building a lot of starter homes , " he told KoS , but declined to shed light on further details . The aforementioned Cliftonville , barely a two minute drive up the hill from the arty seafront , is an area still suffering real deprivation . There are some nice shops along the two-mile high street that is Northdown Road but these are interspersed between dozens of rundown , empty stores that frankly look like they 're falling apart . Signs on others are littered with misplaced apostrophes and incorrect grammar , another indication that things in this part of town just are n't as slick . Nicknamed Kosoville by some locals due to the influx of Balkan residents , Thanet District Council ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is suffering from high levels of crime and anti social behaviour , and a lack of cohesion in the community with a negative impact on the community and public services " . It was perhaps telling of the level of unease in the town that a recurring response among cafes and newsagents approached by KoS for comment on the contrast between Cliftonville and the arty Margate seafront was " I do n't want to get involved " . Julie Dellar , a Ukip councillor for the Cliftonville West ward on TDC , told us she 'd like to see investment distributed more equally across the district . " It 's starting to happen but it takes time and things are n't moving quickly enough , " she said . " There is negativity throughout the area and Cliftonville has been neglected for far too long . " But it has the most beautiful properties - I always describe them as skeletons , but we need to put the flesh back on and we do that by attracting some investment . " There 's two @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they are buying them for . " If they 're just coming to do them up and turn them into bedsits as a second home , that 's not beneficial , but if they 're coming and really regenerating the area that can have a knock-on effect . " Ms Noone from the Little Prince agrees the success of Margate in recent years will prove to be contagious , meaning the more deprived areas will soon reap the benefits also . " It will infiltrate , it has to , " she said . " Even if you go to the bottom of the hill at Cecil Square there are little shops starting to open up , so it 's just a matter of time before it goes up the hill . " It will grow , it ca n't stay like that . There 's a lot of eastern Europeans there and it seems those families do their own thing and keep themselves to themselves and do n't really integrate and maybe that 's why there 's a problem . " With the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and clean it up and step in whereas before they were happy to just leave it . " Cllr Dance added : " Cliftonville used to be the place to live in Thanet 's heydey . " When you look at the grandiose houses facing the sea with the greens in front of them and it 's beautiful . " So it 's a sweeping statement to say it is deprived because street by street there may be issues , but some areas have totally changed . " What we did , jointly with TDC , we bought properties that were houses of multiple occupation or were rundown and we 've got an initiative called No Use Empty so if we see an empty property , we 'll talk to a local builder , they 'll take up the job and get it to a standard where it can be rented or sold . " We have put an awful lot of time and effort into upgrading the existing property and we 've done a good job . " It 's going to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " The problem is far from exclusive to Margate , however , as wealthy opportunists from the capital will see homes at up-and-coming seaside towns across the county 's coast as an investment . Folkestone has undergone significant regeneration of its harbour and surrounding areas , largely thanks to the deep pockets of its Victorian-style benefactor Sir Roger de Haan - the billionaire former owner of his father 's Saga empire . The trendy Rocksalt restaurant is popular with DFLs , as are the colourful , quirky little shops in the town 's Creative Quarter . However , Folkestone is still recognised by the Office for National Statistics as a deprived town and is also at risk of neglecting the needs of locals already settled there . Of the houses being built on the seafront in one of its biggest projects , reportedly only around eight per cent will be affordable . Jonathan Ward , a researcher in cultural labour at Leeds University , has written a paper on the creative regeneration of Folkestone and Margate . He argues : " A @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ social relations on which the interpretation of places as ' creative ' is built , and arguably undermines the sustainability of an arts-based regeneration . " This has implications for culture-led policy , calling for greater attention to be paid to the specific locations in which it is deployed , and to the networks of producers whose labour is critical to its success . " Whitstable , meanwhile , has appeared on the surface to have been one of the county 's roaring successes in recent years , and Cllr Dance , who lives in the seaside town , says getting the word out there in terms of advertising is key . " There are very successful places across the country , like West Mersey , which are trendy , and have made it as a seaside town like Whitstable has , " he said . " But when you run a few miles across Essex to Brightlingsea , property prices plummet , but the moorings and the facilities for boats are fantastic , so are they marketing themselves properly ? " The Whitstable story @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ straight train link from Victoria , and for years they were doing ' champagne and oyster runs ' , where they have too much to drink , have a few oysters and buy a ploy of land . " Those plots in Seasalter on the seafront are now worth about ? 500,000 each . " What local people have done is a deal with the national press and as a result Whitstable has never ever really been knocked as an area . " Indeed , sitting on the high street is Wheelers Oyster Bar - the oldest restaurant in the town with a tiny oyster parlour and seafood bar that has received almost unanimously positive reviews online and is becoming increasingly popular with day-tripping DFLs . Head chef Mark Stubbs told KoS : " The whole town has benefitted from it , I ca n't really see a huge negative , it creates jobs , a good atmosphere . " Whitstable has always had artists and musicians , we 've always had the individual shops in the town , we 're lucky enough to still @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ kind of town , and with that there 's history with the oysters , there 's a real quirkiness to it . " I do n't think it 's necessarily about getting more visitors down , Whitstable is only a certain size but if someone is doing something well then they should be promoted because if they 're doing something to the best of their ability why should n't they get the acknowledgement ? " It 's not about drawing huge amounts of people to the town , if something is worth seeing , and worth coming to , let them make their own decision . " You have to also give them potential - a reason to come back - whether it 's a great beach , great shops or great people serving you behind the shops . " It 's not just about taking people 's money , it 's about making them feel welcome in the town and that 's important . " On the harbour sits a row of huts , small businesses selling bread , fruit , milkshakes and , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from passing customers . There 's an upbeat community feel amongst them , but one trader admits , like Margate , Whitstable has suffered by appearing to shift its focus towards attracting Londoners , leaving locals alienated and suffering . " For locals who are on low income , the rising house prices is a real problem , they 're priced out , " she told KoS . " To buy a house here now , I think you have to be working in London and commuting to get the wages , or have two of you with really good jobs . " I personally rent , and I do n't look at house prices because it 's not something I can aim for . " Everybody puts emphasis on buying a house but it should go back to what it was when councils build family homes or flats and studios for young people to rent , and when they 're ready to move on , that can be available for somebody else . " It 's easy to become disengaged because local people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ denying that for a town to really thrive , to deliver on promises , it needs fresh private investment - whether that is from employers or individuals . And given our proximity to London and the improving speed of services to the capital - Kent is , and always has been , an attractive proposition for those wanting to invest their wealth . But if a town 's prosperity means a chunk of the existing community has to be priced out to usher new blood in , the question has to be asked as to whether that is truly positive and truly serving the needs of those communities . Margate and Folkestone are both on the rise and while there has been some groundwork , the issue in both is to ensure that the attractions and investments are as much designed to boost the local population as to lure in the DfLs . Whitstable is almost mission complete . Try and move up from your three-bedroom terrace property as your family expand and unless you 're on serious money , the leap is simply too great . Yet @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The question is whether those living and working there have much in the way of local or Kentish roots . |

Public loos in Sutton Bridge are closed for a specialist deep clean because a vandal daubed poo across walls and sanitary ware . Parish council chairman John Grimwood branded the attack as " disgusting " and says it appears whoever was responsible held the poo in a plastic bag while messing up the gents . The attack means both the gents and the ladies have shut -- because they share a gated entrance -- but the disabled toilet will remain open to anyone who has a radar key .

In the hours and days that followed the murder of Thomas Devlin , it was a chance conversation that helped his mother find hope amid the despair . The brutal killing of the 15-year-old , stabbed as he walked home from buying sweets on a balmy summer 's evening 11 years ago , shocked the country . Penny Holloway has spoken of the help that the bursaries have provided Thomas Devlin with his dog Thomas Devlin Penny Holloway with Thomas 's father Jim Devlin Nigel Brown Gary Taylor In the hours and days that followed the murder of Thomas Devlin , it was a chance conversation that helped his mother find hope amid the despair . The brutal killing of the 15-year-old , stabbed as he walked home from buying sweets on a balmy summer 's evening 11 years ago , shocked the country . For his mum Penny , father Jim and older siblings James and Megan , it was a shattering @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ terms with the death of her boy , Penny realised that with grief came responsibility . " It was Fr Sean Emerson , who was our parish priest at the time , " she recalls . " He spoke to us and his words were very powerful . " It was a very dark time for Thomas 's friends and he put it to us that , as Thomas 's parents , we had a responsibility to make sure that it did n't remain dark for them . " We had to find something positive and something good to come out of it . " Those words led to the setting up of the Thomas Devlin Fund , which this year marks its 10th anniversary . The fund provides grants to young people aged between 15 and 19 who want to pursue a career or study in the creative and performing arts . Later this week , 10 more young people will be given bursaries towards fulfilling their dreams . Penny describes with pride how the fund has ensured Thomas 's legacy lives @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ young people such great opportunities to do something that they are really interested in , " she explains . " Thomas 's life was stopped not through his own choice . " He did n't get the chance to even begin to do things that he wanted to do . These bursaries enable young people to have those opportunities . " It 's a good thing that has happened out of something that was pretty terrible for us . " Thomas was murdered in an unprovoked attack as he walked home from buying sweets with his friends on the evening of August 10 , 2005 . A pupil at Belfast Royal Academy , he was about to go into his GCSE year at school and had a bright future ahead of him . He enjoyed playing computer games , music , playing the tenor horn and socialising with his pals . " Thomas was just a typical teenage boy . He had lots of friends and a very good sense of humour , " Penny recalls . " He was having a great @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ James , who lived in Glasgow , and he 'd had a good time there . " He had only just come back and was with his mates , all his friends , and just generally enjoying life . " On that terrible August evening , Thomas had strolled to the local garage with two friends . It was just a short walk from where he lived on the Somerton Road in north Belfast . However , he never made it home . The group were set upon by two thugs , Gary Taylor and Nigel Brown . Thomas tried to run away but was pulled off a wall and stabbed nine times . Just 200 metres from the safety of his home , the teenager lay bleeding to death from wounds to his chest , abdomen , arm and face . Penny remembers : " I got a phone call from my daughter who had got a call from one of Thomas 's friends to say he had been attacked . " By the time that we got down , the ambulance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were helping . " We realised pretty quickly it was a very serious situation . " They took him straight away to the Mater Hospital where they did everything they could to save him . They tried so hard . " Unfortunately it was too serious an injury for Thomas to survive . " The murder shocked people right across Northern Ireland . At the time someone suggested to Penny that her son had simply been in the wrong place at the wrong time . It is something she has always struggled to accept . After all , what could be so wrong about a 15-year-old boy walking to his local shop with his friends to buy sweets during the school holidays ? " I think it touched people because they were just doing what normal lads or young people of their age wanted to do , " adds Penny . " They lived their lives normally , without fear of violence or being attacked , and I think that 's not an unreasonable expectation . " Some people said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ time , but I really do n't agree with that . " He was on his own road , on his way to his own home . He had a normal expectation of being able to walk home without fear of attack . " At Thomas 's funeral service Fr Emerson spoke of the importance of good conquering evil . " The worst possible thing that could happen is for those who believe in evil and violence to be allowed to terrorise the rest of us to become like them , " he had told mourners . " Therefore I would ask all of you , especially the young people among us , to continue to focus on doing good things and showing that good will always overcome evil . " It was something the priest also stressed to the Devlin family in private , and they set about creating something tangible in Thomas 's memory . By the following February , the Thomas Devlin Fund had been established . " It was really that Fr Emerson 's words which made us think @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Thomas loved music and was into gaming . He also really liked art . " Quite a lot of his friends we noticed at the time were able to express themselves through music and poetry . " A number of them wrote poems about Thomas and sent them to us . " We felt that perhaps this was something that we could help and where we could maybe do something . " We came up with the idea of a fund and one of the main strands of it was to provide financial support for young people who want to pursue a career or opportunities or just experiences in the music and creative and performing arts . " Because we knew it was very difficult for them to get funding , we thought providing bursaries would be quite a good way of doing that . " The fund , run by the Community Foundation for Northern Ireland , has so far benefited 58 people , with a further 10 bursaries being awarded this year . One recipient was able to go @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ballet school in New York . Penny tries to keep in touch with all those who have benefited from the fund . " We also had one girl from Lurgan who went to Los Angeles for three months to learn dance . She is now moving to Liverpool to continue that , and has made a great success of it , " she added . " It 's good to see what they 're doing now and how they have progressed . " |

Two Saturdays ago , Pools were down to 10 men before some players had even touched the ball , yet received a standing ovation after earning a point in a 2-2 draw with Newport County . The boys in blue deserved every clap , every decibel of sound from the stands and terraces of the Northern Gas & Power Stadium . Despite playing short-handed they performed with such passion and intensity they were unfortunate not to collect all three points . Fast forward seven days to Broadhall Way , or the Lamex Stadium if we are following the new name procedures , and the players were told in no uncertain terms what the supporters thought of their efforts . This reporter uses the final word of the last sentence loosely , because there was little evidence of it as Pools seeped into the grass so meekly at Stevenage . Pools did not just lose to a team who had started the day in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , they got battered , with a large B. However , let 's not get too downbeat , it 's only September 5 and there is the not-so-small matter of there being 120 points still to play for . If there are many more repeats of Saturday then there will be an anxious scramble , again , for enough points to stay in the Football League . But , there 's always a but , is n't there , I 'm going to pop back to March 1 , when Pools were taken to the cleaners by Bristol Rovers . Before you say " Stevenage are no Bristol Rovers " , I know , but that evening proved a watershed for Pools . Craig Hignett laid into his players in the Memorial Stadium dressing room and the response was dramatic . Pools reeled off a seven-match unbeaten run - highlighted by exciting wins against several promotion hopefuls - including four clean sheets . Can they do it again ? That is the challenge facing the players , starting with a visit to another @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The strange thing was , you got the impression Saturday could , and should , have been so much better . Stevenage gifted Pools the proverbial dream start and after their recent woes , you suspected they may fold . Such suspicions were wide of the mark . When Pools were dominating possession , Boro simply dug in and ran that little bit further and tried harder - and when they got the ball they got it forward . Stevenage were no fancy dans nor were they old-style Wimbledon . They applied pressure , made use of the set-pieces - and there were many of them - and they played a bit of football too . Boro could have won by more but for a few good saves by Adam Bartlett . Yes , the afternoon could have been even more harrowing . The moment that summed it up for me was a slick nine-pass move by Pools in the second half when the score was 2-1 . The ball was lost and a couple of passes later , Stevenage @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reporter is not advocating route one - Hignett has a style of football and it has to be persevered with - but when Pools do NOT have the ball , that is when they have to be better . Much better . Every time Stevenage had a corner , long throw or counter-attack , the away side looked susceptible . No-one was prepared to stand up to it or to lead . Remarkably , given the carnage , it had began so beautifully . Scott Harrison picked out Jordan Richards with a scorching crossfield 60-yard pass and the right-back made the most of it with a great cross into the box . Michael Tonge and keeper Jamie Jones made a real mess of dealing with it and the ball was there for Nathan Thomas to put into the empty net . Pools , who left Billy Paynter on the bench and went with a 4-3-3 formation , stroked the ball around and while they were not ripping Boro to shreds , it was nice to watch . And they came close to doubling the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ earlier foul-up by flying to his left to keep out Alessandra 's free-kick .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase 'receiving Cookies', but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee.

Two Saturdays ago , Pools were down to 10 men before some players had even touched the ball , yet received a standing ovation after earning a point in a 2-2 draw with Newport County . The boys in blue deserved every clap , every decibel of sound from the stands and terraces of the Northern Gas & Power Stadium . Despite playing short-handed they performed with such passion and intensity they were unfortunate not to collect all three points . Fast forward seven days to Broadhall Way , or the Lamex Stadium if we are following the new name procedures , and the players were told in no uncertain terms what the supporters thought of their efforts . This reporter uses the final word of the last sentence loosely , because there was little evidence of it as Pools seeped into the grass so meekly at Stevenage . Pools did not just lose to a team who had started the day in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , they got battered , with a large B. However , let 's not get too downbeat , it 's only September 5 and there is the not-so-small matter of there being 120 points still to play for . If there are many more repeats of Saturday then there will be an anxious scramble , again , for enough points to stay in the Football League . But , there 's always a but , is n't there , I 'm going to pop back to March 1 , when Pools were taken to the cleaners by Bristol Rovers . Before you say " Stevenage are no Bristol Rovers " , I know , but that evening proved a watershed for Pools . Craig Hignett laid into his players in the Memorial Stadium dressing room and the response was dramatic . Pools reeled off a seven-match unbeaten run - highlighted by exciting wins against several promotion hopefuls - including four clean sheets . Can they do it again ? That is the challenge facing the players , starting with a visit to another @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The strange thing was , you got the impression Saturday could , and should , have been so much better . Stevenage gifted Pools the proverbial dream start and after their recent woes , you suspected they may fold . Such suspicions were wide of the mark . When Pools were dominating possession , Boro simply dug in and ran that little bit further and tried harder - and when they got the ball they got it forward . Stevenage were no fancy dans nor were they old-style Wimbledon . They applied pressure , made use of the set-pieces - and there were many of them - and they played a bit of football too . Boro could have won by more but for a few good saves by Adam Bartlett . Yes , the afternoon could have been even more harrowing . The moment that summed it up for me was a slick nine-pass move by Pools in the second half when the score was 2-1 . The ball was lost and a couple of passes later , Stevenage @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reporter is not advocating route one - Hignett has a style of football and it has to be persevered with - but when Pools do NOT have the ball , that is when they have to be better . Much better . Every time Stevenage had a corner , long throw or counter-attack , the away side looked susceptible . No-one was prepared to stand up to it or to lead . Remarkably , given the carnage , it had began so beautifully . Scott Harrison picked out Jordan Richards with a scorching crossfield 60-yard pass and the right-back made the most of it with a great cross into the box . Michael Tonge and keeper Jamie Jones made a real mess of dealing with it and the ball was there for Nathan Thomas to put into the empty net . Pools , who left Billy Paynter on the bench and went with a 4-3-3 formation , stroked the ball around and while they were not ripping Boro to shreds , it was nice to watch . And they came close to doubling the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ earlier foul-up by flying to his left to keep out Alessandra 's free-kick . It proved a turning point as a minute later , Carroll lost the ball to Tom Pett who released Matt Godden on the now unguarded right side . Godden returned the favour by rolling a loss cross which Pett finished past Bartlett . Bartlett kept things level with a good save from Andrew Fox and then appeared to make a better one as he dived full length to his right to tip around a Tyler Walker shot only for the officials to award a goal-kick .

After more than a decade of stalemate , broken promises and failed bids to breath new life into Glenrothes town centre , the first image of how the new North Street will eventually look has been revealed . An artists impression of the site currently occupied by the CISWO Club , who are set to make way for the huge redevelopment of the area when they relocate to their new club premises in early 2017 , shows a transformation of the site in North Street . And with a Mark and Spencer foodhall taking up the main anchor store , as well as a Marsdens gastro pub and a Tony Macaroni restaurant also confirmed , the hope is the extensive redevelopment will trigger further reinvestment into the town . Keith Davidson , Easy Living Developments CEO , said the development work was on track to be completed by September 2017 . " Things are ticking along nicely and we are expecting to have the CISWO Club fully relocated @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ year , " he said . " Once that is complete it will allow us to demolish the old club and start the North Street site immediately . " The design of the public house is still to be decided upon but we expect to have the last of those issues completed in the next week or so . " It 's an exciting time for the town and we 're glad to be playing our part . " And he added that he was confident that all the retailers would be in the finished development and trading well ahead of the busy Christmas period . " As long as there are no hitches along the way and I ca n't see why there should be , we are aiming for retailers to be open by October 2017 , " Mr Davidson added . The first of what the new look retail park will look like has been warmly welcomed by members of the Glenrothes Area Futures Group , who have been campaigning for town centre redevelopment for several years . Dr Bob @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a " major breakthrough " for both Glenrothes and the surrounding area . " At last we 'll have an evening social centre in the town , " he added . The news of an anticipated completion date for North Street site , which for years was expected to become a Tesco supermarket until they scrapped plans in December 2013 , represents a huge boost for the town and brings the end of the decade-long saga a step closer .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', where 'receiving Cookies' is a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'. Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', which is a different construction where 'opt out of' is followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks the necessary NP object and does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

Andy Murray delivered a resounding message about his credentials to win the US Open after the world number two demolished Grigor Dimitrov to reach the quarter-finals . Murray produced a flawless performance in Arthur Ashe Stadium and Dimitrov was simply unable to cope as the Scot strolled to a 6-1 6-2 6-2 victory . The British number one has now reached the last eight in 22 out of his last 23 grand slams and he will face Japan 's sixth seed Kei Nishikori for a place in the semi-finals . After a lacklustre display in his previous round at Flushing Meadows , Murray insisted he would have to improve to overcome an in-form Dimitrov and he certainly kept his promise . The 29-year-old was broken only once in the whole match and produced the fastest serve of his career , at 141 miles per hour , to win the opening set . " I played extremely well , tactically I played a good match , " Murray said . On his record-breaking serve , Murray added : " I served one at 145 in San Jose once but the next day they recalibrated the gun because it was completely wrong . " Tonight 's was the fastest serve I 've hit . The other one was here at the US Open , 138 . I think it was lucky . I only did it once . I 'm not expecting to do it again . " If this hammering had come in the earlier rounds it perhaps would have been less impressive but Dimitrov is ranked 24th in the world , beat Murray in Miami earlier this year and ousted world number three Stan Wawrinka at Cincinnati last month . The talented Bulgarian has enjoyed a resurgence under Murray 's former coach Dani Vallverdu but any confidence gained may have been shattered in what was , at times , a humiliation . Murray is in the midst of his own golden patch with Ivan Lendl , under whom @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in his runs to winning Wimbledon and the Olympics , it is hard to recall a more convincing performance . " His belief is higher than it 's ever been , " seven-time grand slam champion John McEnroe said on ESPN . " That 's what makes him even harder to beat right now . " Dimitrov ripped a backhand pass to open up two break points in the very first game but that was as good as it got for the 25-year-old who , after 1-1 , lost nine games in a row . Murray began his streak as he often does , by making his opponent play one more ball . Twice in one game he forced Dimitrov to take two smashes to finish the point , and the second time his willpower was rewarded as the Bulgarian thrashed his effort into the net . Up one break , Murray grabbed another , and a sublime set of tennis was given a final flourish , an ace , and at 141 miles per hour , Murray 's fastest of his career . No player @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Murray was now in full flow . He broke in the first game of the second with a whipped forehand winner , and again in the third to lead 3-0 , as a sleepy crowd began to wonder if Dimitrov would ever get on the board . He did , with a break , but Murray broke back instantly , prompting his opponent to attempt his most ambitious shot of the night - a flying right-foot volley , kicked through the air in frustration . He failed to make contact . By the start of the third set , even Lendl was getting fidgety as the Czech stretched his legs and temporarily watched standing in one of the entrances . Murray left his best until last , as Dimitrov unleashed a stinging backhand pass and somehow his opponent read it , racing across and volleying home a winner . Rain began to spit down on court before the final game , but nothing could halt Murray 's progress as a wide forehand confirmed Dimitrov 's exit in a brisk two hours and one minute . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Press Standards Organisation 's Editors ' Code of Practice .

A statue honouring Hartlepool 's contribution to the Boer War could be reinstated in a town park after almost 50 years . The History of Hartlepool group is spearheading efforts to bring back the statue of a soldier to Ward Jackson Park . The original bronze figure was stolen in 1968 leaving only a trace of its boots . Its plinth , which lists the 320 men from the Hartlepool area who fought in the conflict and 23 who died in battle , is all that remains . On Friday , Hartlepool Borough Council 's Regeneration Services Committee will be asked to support the history group 's efforts for a new statue . A report of Denise Ogden , director of regeneration and neighbourhoods , states : " The construction of a new statue would return this element of the park to its former glory and to remember the townsfolk who fought in , and perished , in this conflict . Council report " At the moment there are numerous options to be explored and more extensive investigation is required before the project can move forward . " The committee will consider three options . The first is for a new statue to be created by artist Ray Lonsdale using metals with a low scrap value and using the existing plinth with built in security posts . A second option is to explore creating a full-size 3D printed statue , measuring 6ft 2in , using the original maquette from the Museum of Hartlepool 's collection . A third proposal is to replace the statue with an exact copy of the original statue . The original statue was unveiled in the park in 1905 after being designed and made by local sculptor FW Doyle Jones to commemorate the Boer War . The conflict took place in South Africa between 1899-1902 . Sadly , the statue 's rifle was stolen early in 1968 before the whole thing disappeared later that year .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase 'receiving Cookies', but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

A statue honouring Hartlepool 's contribution to the Boer War could be reinstated in a town park after almost 50 years . The History of Hartlepool group is spearheading efforts to bring back the statue of a soldier to Ward Jackson Park . The original bronze figure was stolen in 1968 leaving only a trace of its boots . Its plinth , which lists the 320 men from the Hartlepool area who fought in the conflict and 23 who died in battle , is all that remains . On Friday , Hartlepool Borough Council 's Regeneration Services Committee will be asked to support the history group 's efforts for a new statue . A report of Denise Ogden , director of regeneration and neighbourhoods , states : " The construction of a new statue would return this element of the park to its former glory and to remember the townsfolk who fought in , and perished , in this conflict . Council report " At the moment there are numerous options to be explored and more extensive investigation is required before the project can move forward . " The committee will consider three options . The first is for a new statue to be created by artist Ray Lonsdale using metals with a low scrap value and using the existing plinth with built in security posts . A second option is to explore creating a full-size 3D printed statue , measuring 6ft 2in , using the original maquette from the Museum of Hartlepool 's collection . A third proposal is to replace the statue with an exact copy of the original statue . The original statue was unveiled in the park in 1905 after being designed and made by local sculptor FW Doyle Jones to commemorate the Boer War . The conflict took place in South Africa between 1899-1902 . Sadly , the statue 's rifle was stolen early in 1968 before the whole thing disappeared later that year .

East Sussex County Council has called on parents to " have confidence " that schools will continue to improve , despite falling short in the tough new tests for 11-year-olds . Last week , the Department for Education published the provisional results of the Key Stage 2 SATs , which saw just 53 per cent of children across the country meet the expected standard in reading , writing and maths . Last year , before the tougher new tests were introduced , 78 per cent of children achieved the expected Level 4 or above . But the Department for Education insisted the 2015 and 2016 results were not comparable as they had been achieved using two entirely different systems . The new system has set expectations of the country 's 11-year-olds much higher -- and the results have prompted a swift response from local authorities . In East Sussex , 50 per cent of youngsters made the grade in reading , writing and maths combined - 3 per cent short of the national average . When it came to reading , children @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cent reaching the expected score , compared to 66 per cent nationally . The score for maths was lower , though - 65 per cent compared to 70 per cent nationally . A council spokesman said " wide-ranging support " for schools had been planned , such as helping teachers to address the key areas for improvement with the help of a training programme led by a team of local authority consultants . In addition , the council planned to work with education improvement partnerships to increase schools ' capacity to address under-performance . Support would also be available from teaching schools and lead English and maths teachers would provide school-to-school support . The spokesman said : " The 2016 Key Stage 2 results have led to many wide variations in the results across the country . East Sussex is not exempt from these and , indeed , there was wide variation within the local authority 's schools . " Nevertheless , we are taking the results seriously and reviewing the school support arrangements . " She added that results for children in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ positive " , with significant improvements in both areas thanks to " many of the school support arrangements already put in place " . The work will include looking at ways to close the gap between girls and boys , which had widened at a national level -- though it narrowed in East Sussex . The county saw 46 per cent of its 2,611 boys meet the required standard , compared to 54 per cent of the 2,439 girls . That gap was replicated at a national level with girls outperforming boys by 57 per cent to 50 . The spokesman said girls were out-performing boys in reading and writing , while the reverse was true when it came to maths , and the council would be looking at identifying and sharing the methods of schools which had already successfully narrowed the gaps . So how concerned should parents be about these results ? The council spokesman said : " Parents should always be concerned about the performance of the schools their children attend . " However , East Sussex parents should continue to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on the success to date in significantly increasing the number of schools to be graded as good or outstanding by Ofsted so that East Sussex is now in line with national figures . " She added : " There is much to celebrate in the 2016 results , where more schools improved their position in the East Sussex rankings . " However the local authority and headteachers will be relentless in their allocation and use of resources to deliver an excellent education for all . " Another point highlighted by these latest figures was the performance of academies compared to state-funded schools . The results showed state-funded schools were still out-performing academies -- but their lead was slim at best and non-existent in places . But the figures masked an important variation between the types of academy . Splitting them down into their three categories , a different picture emerged . Converted academies -- those which chose to leave local authority control -- out-performed state-funded schools in all areas , recording a pass rate of 57 per cent in reading , writing and maths , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ standard than expected , compared to the 5 per cent national average . It was a different story for sponsored academies -- schools which had been instructed to take on academy status by the government - where just 43 per cent of pupils reached the expected standard . For free schools , that figure was 48 per cent . Perhaps this should not be a surprise as the schools which choose to convert are often the ones that have historically performed well , while those forced to convert were the ones struggling the most . The government 's reasoning has been that putting failing schools in the hands of an educational sponsor will lead to better results . The idea has not really been proved by the Department for Education figures . Results for sponsored academies have remained as much as 12 per cent below the national average , with only those who converted five or more years ago showing a rise in their performance . Even they are still 7 per cent behind state-funded schools . So is must be asked , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ convert working ? Despite failing to match the national average at Key Stage 2 , it may not be all doom and gloom for the children -- or their respective secondary schools . The government 's new system of measuring a secondary school 's performance is now based on how much progress each child made after leaving primary school . If the Key Stage 2 results of this year 's intake were particularly low , then they stand a big chance of showing an impressive amount of progress by the time they take their GCSEs .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', which is a different construction where 'opt out of' is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund, not the transitive out of -ing construction.

While every designer dares to make their mark by relocating to New York , Jules moved out of Charleston and relocated to Los Angeles to establish her clothing line Left Hand . Comprised of distressed denim , patched sweat suits and reworked vintage overalls , each piece from Left Hand feels like it is born to be worn . Even Rihanna , who wore a pink sweatsuit to a meet and greet during her Anti World Tour , is not immune to the DIY sensibilities of Left Hand . Although Left Hand is fairly contemporary , you will soon hear its name slithering from the tip of every tongue . While we have yet to meet up in person , Jules and I had a long chat on the phone about the origins of Left Hand , streetwear , and college . Who or what drew you to streetwear @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ been attracted to different logos and prints and that essentially is where streetwear stands out versus day-to-day regular clothes . Even though streetwear is such a broad term these days , I think what drew me towards it was graphics . That 's really cool on how you are being influenced by graphic design . From what I can sense , there 's a lot of playful elements of words , mixing up patches and reworking a lot of elements in your streetwear pieces like hoodies , sweatpants , jeans , jumpsuits and overalls , which I just saw on Rihanna and on your website . So , did being influenced by streetwear make you want to work on those types of garments ? That started with just learning at a young age how great thrift stores are - from furniture to just recognizing decades from a shorter hem . Back then , they were way less expensive . I would bring home garbage bags full of stuff and sometimes , put a shirt on my leg and I can sew up the neckline and harem pants . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ really , really young cutting stuff up and sewing up . That 's where the refurbished background came from . I got a sewing background that goes back to 3rd grade . From third to sixth grade , I was doing a lot of projects , volunteering and teaching people how to sew . Left Hand is a new project and it appeals to a lot of the same people that are known for wearing streetwear , but it has a vibe that is welcoming to other people as well . It 's crafty looking and fun . I have to admit that it 's open of the reasons I love Left Hand so much . It 's playful and it 's not like your average streetwear piece . I love how you 've been reworking clothes since you were really young ! Was there anyone in your family who taught you how to sew or did you learn all this by yourself ? Well , my dad definitely put me on to the power of a thrift store . But I guess my mom turned my shopping @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Why do n't you turn your love for shopping into making your own clothes ? " . Then her best friend - who was one of her neighbors - was doing crafty stuff like sewing . I started going over to her house everyday after school . I learned slowly and precisely with her . I made prom dresses all throughout high school . What is the process like for you to rework each piece ? The whole idea behind Left Hand was like , most people are right-handed , but everyone needs their left hand , too . I want it to be a platform for artists ... anyone that wants their art on clothing that can actually go make it happen themselves . A lot of the process is finding different artists that I look up to and admire and together , we 'll design patches . I do a lot of Photoshop work with the patches or a lot of them are friends ' art . I print them and do a lot of sewing . It 's a lot of spray glue and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Sometimes , I have an intern . So , it 's pretty hectic , unfortunately . I 've noticed that a lot on your designs that your friends have collaborated with you . Do you feel influenced by their style ? How did these collaborations happen ? A lot of it are artists I 've known forever . We either work together - not necessarily fashion , but we 've worked around each other . I do n't think any of them have influenced my designs . I just think together , we can create something totally different than the next artist I collaborate with . I mean , a lot of them are friends I 've reached out or a lot of them reach out to me . Your take on DIY streetwear has been a huge hit among your celebrity clientele and I remember knowing about your stuff from Haus of Rihanna . On your Instagram , you had Slim Jimmy from Rae Sremmurd who wore your jumpsuit . How did they learn about you ? Left Hand has been circulating in stores @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of people grabbed different things from there . Rae Sremmurd bought it from e-boutique V Files . The cool thing about Left Hand is that people stop you and compliment you . Out of anything I 've ever worn , people ca n't tell that it 's handmade . Every time I wear that , everyone says something . I have no idea how it got to Rihanna , but it was a goal . That 's the best part about it I 'll wake up in the morning and people will be like , " Congratulations ! " There 's so much excitement in there and it 's getting insane . I do n't know how to keep up right now . I 've done so much good stuff in a short period of time - it 's paying off . Since your clientele tend to be oriented in the music industry , did you intend to revolve your designs around it ? I think that now that I live in L.A. , you actually have the access here . Two or three times I 've @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and I live on Melrose . I 've chased a few people down the street and like , " Hey ! I 've always really liked you , can you come to my house and pick a piece ? " So , they 're all around here whereas if I was at home , it would be way harder for me to reach out to celebrities and get it to them . I think seeing people perform , there 's something about the pieces that a lot of them stand out as performance pieces and that 's because it 's art . There 's never ever anything that 's the exact same . It 's so cool because not only me just being influenced by performance or music , it also appeals to these types of people as well . That 's really good that you 're able to think about who you want and it 's smart of you to have this hustle to think about your customer and your person . I mean , it 's cool because there 's pieces floating around that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stuff , the more I sell stuff and give it to friends , it circulates . I look to everyone that buys something and figure out who they are . Everyone 's so different , but I guess . As for celebrities , there 's so many more that I want to dress . I reached out to a lot of them . If they like it , then they 're going to be down . Hopefully , I get it in a store in L.A. soon . Fingers crossed ! Right ? ! That 's the current goal . I guess as I 'm watching it grow or as it is , I have to step back and be like , " What do we want out of this ? " because it was just me sewing for fun at night in my free time and all of a sudden , someone said , " How much ? Are those pants wholesale ? " And that person in Japan - he 's my mentor . He 's everything , but he helped me out and he put @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I learned so much of mass production of one-on-one garments . I never thought that I 'd be running a business like this . Like , it 's so wild ! Speaking of your clothes and knowing how special each handmade piece is , I noticed that you 've been selling them on Big Cartel between $50 to $500 . Since you 're an up and coming designer , do you feel the pressure to prioritize price points when you release a garment ? I never went into fashion to make money . This is just my love ; I will put fashion above anything . I 'm aware that there 's not necessarily a lot of money in it . I respect brands that have higher price points because it seems harder to get and especially with my stuff being one-on-ones , I want people to be able to have it , you know . I 'm making stuff all day long . Like , if you saw my room right now you 'd be like , " Whoa ! " All of this stuff that 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like everyone can appreciate it for a price that I can keep Left Hand going . As long as I can keep Left Hand going and funding itself , then maybe eventually , that 'd be a full-time job . I do n't feel too much pressure with the price points . There are certain pieces that have sentimental value to me . There 's no price that people could put on them because that 's the only one that will ever exist . There 's no way I can recreate something that I 've made before . So , those pieces , like , I would want to have one in a museum . I have to admit that you evolved so much as a designer . I 'm not so sure what happened back to the old pieces back in 2014 , but I remember all these old photos of your work . You started off with some trippy graphic designs , athletic-inspired rainbow brights and a handful of mesh . So , what was your focus at that time and how does it frame your @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Undoubtedly , I stay true to my love for color and a lot of it . Something that 's remotely androgynous about it . Back then , I was cutting and sewing those things on sports bras and harem pants and I just loved it . I thought it was cool , I thought it was awesome . I was living in Arizona and that was the crazy materials I had in the fabric store . I had all those pieces still . There 's so much reward about making something from scratch from start to finish . I want to get back into that more definitely . I think people will always see in my work color and I 'm gon na forever touch every single garment . I 'm gon na sew . It 's never gon na be in production somewhere . It 's gon na be a small operation and I 'm gon na sew the majority of the clothes . Everything will be different . I 'm taking on a few other brands , too . I 'm going to have brands under @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ starting our own brand called Early Victims . Between Left Hand and Early Victims , what will be the differences of both lines ? For Left Hand , everything is going to be sewn , whereas Early Victims will be just printed stuff . Sometimes , Early Victims and Left Hand will do collabs where we 'll use the prints that we do and make them patches . We will do nicer garments than sweatsuits . For Early Victims , I want to do be able to get stuff to everyone that likes sweatpants . I want there to be a line - it 's not me taking on too much sewing . I think Early Victims will last forever and left Hand will evolve into a smaller operation with custom stuff like doing wedding dresses and prom dresses . All those big name fashion designers like Demna Gvisalia of Vetements have gone through fashion school . The majority of fashion designers our age have either dropped out of college or got a degree . Was it necessary for you to go to college ? I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ glad I did n't finish . I went to the University of the Arts London for a foundation degree my freshman year and then , there 's a school called SCAD Savannah College of Art and Design that is close to my hometown . I went there for a year and after being in London , I learned the importance of not just learning the textbook way to construct a garment , but the power of being in a city . The resources at your fingertips alone are going to influence you as a designer 10 times more than the actual education itself . This is exactly that I wish someone told me . I really feel that it 's amazing how brave you are . I constantly feel that we are being judged for not following what is being thrown at us . Lastly , what goals do you want to set for yourself ? Well , I want an L.A. stockist ... I wan na find Andr ? 3000 and get him some Left Hand . There 's a few other people on that list . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dress some people for award shows , so I 'm finding the right client to wear some of this stuff and figure how out to do a crazy DIY prom dress . I want to open up a shop that 's appointment only . I hope to do a lot more events out in L.A. I want it to just keep growing , but still stay homegrown. |

One of Northern Ireland 's most senior business figures has been secretly recorded accepting a bag of bank notes and then urging the man who gave it to him to lie about the incident to the police . Frank Cushnahan -- a well-connected former chairman of the Belfast Harbour Commissioners who last year was described by the then first minister Peter Robinson as a " pillar of the establishment " -- is facing numerous questions after the emergence of the recordings . In an hour-long BBC Spotlight expos ? on Tuesday night , Mr Cushnahan was heard receiving ? 40,000 in cash from property developer John Miskelly who carried it in a bag to Mr Cushnahan 's blue Jaguar car when they met at the entrance to Belfast City Hospital on August 17 2012 . Mr Miskelly is heard saying : " There 's ? 40,000 in that and it 's in bundles of two , Frank " . The money was paid in a bid by Mr Miskelly -- whose property empire had been swallowed by the Republic 's publicly-owned ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . At the time , Mr Cushnahan was a member of Nama 's Northern Ireland advisory committee and precluded from working for those with assets held by Nama . Last year , the former finance minister Sammy Wilson -- who recommended Mr Cushnahan for the Nama position -- said he " respected " him and " counted him as a friend " . During the meeting , Mr Cushnahan told the developer -- who recorded his contacts with Mr Cushnahan over several years -- that he got a " real kick " out of doing deals . The men had been introduced by Gareth Robinson , son of Peter Robinson . In another secretly recorded conversation , Mr Cushnahan said that he had paid ? 5,000 to Gareth Robinson but Mr Cushnahan told the developer not to give Mr Robinson any more money as he was n't involved in what they were discussing and that he would give Mr Robinson something out of any refinancing deal . Mr Miskelly told Spotlight that the money was for PR work by Mr Robinson and Spotlight emphasised @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ improperly . Speaking glowingly about Mr Robinson , Mr Cushnahan was recorded as saying that the former DUP leader 's son had told him that Mr Miskelly was " looking after him " in " other ways " . Speaking cryptically , he said that " Gareth has played a blinder in some other cases " . Mr Cushnahan 's lawyer -- who could not be contacted last night -- told Spotlight that it would be " inappropriate " for him to answer some of Spotlight 's questions due to the ongoing investigation . |

Hundreds of supporters ... upon Nottingham for a campaign rally held by Jeremy Corbyn in which he took aim at Mike Ashley and Sports Direct .

What are the chances that after six years of dialysis while waiting on a new kidney , your heroic cousin gives you one of his on Organ Donation Week ? This inspirational scenario just happens to be reality for Coalisland woman Briege Dorman , who lost one of her kidneys to cancer just before the other stopped working several years ago . Now she says she 's owes everything to her " hero " - Raymond Hughes - also from Coalisland , who offered up one of his healthy kidneys after years of seeing his cousin in pain , and missing out on life because both hers had failed . But , embarrassed at all the attention since his selfless act , Raymond would argue the real hero of this story is Briege , a grandmother and mother of four , who has not only had to deal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ battle cancer three times . And the timing , he said , was a complete accident . Speaking to the Times today ( Thursday , Sept 8 ) from Belfast City Hospital , 52-year-old Raymond shrugged off his generous and altruistic donation , saying : " Well , you know . I 'm a single man and she 's such a lovely woman - all through the years , we 've been friends . " It seems Briege 's plight was never far from his mind , as he went on to describe how the 57-year-old was unable to take part in family life at times because of her reliance on dialysis . " There 's a couple of things that made me think about it , " he went on to say . " Once , I saw her at a family funeral and she could n't make it to the grave side - and it was breaking her heart . " She had been let down so many times , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was one of those ' I 'll give you a kidney ' and that 's the last you hear . " So I followed it through and got the tests and stuff . It was very tough scrutiny , and I got the MOT as well , so I got something out of it . " She has been marvellous , " he continued . " She 's been let down all these years ... She 's the hero . " I 'm going to be stiff and sore for a while , but she 's always happy no matter how much pain she 's in . " But Briege has praised Raymond with helping her to get her life back after spending almost six months out of the last six years " tied to a bed on dialysis " . " It 's a miracle , " she said . " He 's a hero for me and he 's given me back my life . " My life was completely banjaxed , " Briege explained . " Now I 'll be back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ here for nine to 15 days then it 's just one day at a time . " The impressive pair were admitted to Belfast City Hospital for the procedure on Tuesday , when Raymond said his kidney was removed first , and Briege kept in isolation until it was transplanted into her later on the same day . " It was only 48 hours ago , so we 're on a lot of painkillers , " he added . " Briege has been waiting on a kidney and had been on dialysis for six years , travelling up and down the road to Newry three times a week . " Even though they had both faced the disappointment of previous cancellations , this time was different . " It was perfect , " Raymond said . " The doctors were delighted .

But at the start of July , members of Northumberland County Council 's strategic planning committee voted to follow the planning officers ' recommendation and approve the Highthorn surface mine scheme for a 325-hectare site between Druridge Bay and Widdrington Station . At the time , members were ' minded to approve ' the plan as a request had been made for the Secretary of State to ' call in ' the application . And today , it has been announced that Sajid Javid MP , Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government , has done exactly this . It means that there will now be a public inquiry chaired by a planning inspector , who will make a recommendation to Mr Javid . He can then choose to reject these recommendations if he wishes and is set to have the final word on the fate of the scheme . Banks has said that it is very disappointed with the decision to call in the plan , while objectors have welcomed the news . The scheme is for the extraction @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 20,000 tonnes of fireclay and sandstone over a five-year period with total operations lasting seven years , taking account of the time to set up the site and complete restoration . Banks Mining and its supporters point to jobs and economic benefits for the wider area as well as the restoration plans for the site following the extraction of coal , sandstone and fireclay . However , objectors said that the mine would destroy a stunning part of Northumberland . Concerns also include the impact on climate change , potential damage to tourism , the impact on wildlife and ecology , road issues and the negative effects on residential amenity , including noise , dust and air pollution . Reacting to the news , Mark Dowdall , environment and community director at The Banks Group , said : " Having had our Highthorn planning application unanimously approved by a Northumberland County Council planning committee which contained representatives of all the main political parties , and having also had considerable support for our plans from across local communities , we are naturally very disappointed that the Secretary of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ local decision .

But at the start of July , members of Northumberland County Council 's strategic planning committee voted to follow the planning officers ' recommendation and approve the Highthorn surface mine scheme for a 325-hectare site between Druridge Bay and Widdrington Station . At the time , members were ' minded to approve ' the plan as a request had been made for the Secretary of State to ' call in ' the application . And today , it has been announced that Sajid Javid MP , Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government , has done exactly this . It means that there will now be a public inquiry chaired by a planning inspector , who will make a recommendation to Mr Javid . He can then choose to reject these recommendations if he wishes and is set to have the final word on the fate of the scheme . Banks has said that it is very disappointed with the decision to call in the plan , while objectors have welcomed the news . The scheme is for the extraction @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 20,000 tonnes of fireclay and sandstone over a five-year period with total operations lasting seven years , taking account of the time to set up the site and complete restoration . Banks Mining and its supporters point to jobs and economic benefits for the wider area as well as the restoration plans for the site following the extraction of coal , sandstone and fireclay . However , objectors said that the mine would destroy a stunning part of Northumberland . Concerns also include the impact on climate change , potential damage to tourism , the impact on wildlife and ecology , road issues and the negative effects on residential amenity , including noise , dust and air pollution . Reacting to the news , Mark Dowdall , environment and community director at The Banks Group , said : " Having had our Highthorn planning application unanimously approved by a Northumberland County Council planning committee which contained representatives of all the main political parties , and having also had considerable support for our plans from across local communities , we are naturally very disappointed that the Secretary of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ local decision . " The Highthorn planning application was developed and assessed in accordance with the National Planning Policy Framework , and having had such a strong mandate in favour of the project , we still believe that further consideration of it at a national level is not merited . " The decision to hold a public inquiry will unnecessarily delay Banks Mining 's plans to invest around ? 120million in the North East economy through the Highthorn project , to create at least 100 jobs on the site and to make related contracts worth a total of ? 48million available to locally-based suppliers , and it will also place considerable extra demands on the public purse at a time when it is already under significant pressure .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', where 'receiving' is part of the VP2[-ing] predicate, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

That is the stark warning from the county 's Police and Crime Commissioner Marc Jones who indicated that without the additional cash -- as much as ? 7.5 million a year -- levels of policing will be impossible to sustain . He admits the current workload is starting to take its toll on officers and staff . Mr Jones says the number of frontline officers is being currently maintained but admits there will be reductions -- without more money . In a report to be presented to the county 's Police and Crime panel on Friday , he confirms PCSOs are not being replaced when they leave . He describes the current policy on staffing as ' the least bad option ' . His comments come as latest figures show there is a 1.5 per cent reduction in the number of reported crimes across the county compared the same period last year . Lincolnshire is now among the top six performing forces in the country -- and ranked number one in the East Midlands . Mr Jones states in his report that the Government promised to change the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' . Mr Jones admits it is impossible to plan for the future but says he is ' optimistic ' the Government will deliver . He adds : " I am optimistic that the new Government understands that we are a shining example of innovation and transformation and deliver effective policing as a result . " I have made clear to them the dilemma I face and that it is in their hands to resolve it . " Mr Jones believes Lincolnshire has a particularly strong case but says the Government 's current system for allocating funding does not recognise performance -- or improvements made . He adds : " Lincolnshire delivers policing at a cost of 42p per day per resident according to Her Majesty 's Inspectorate of Constabulary . " This is the lowest cost in England and Wales and policing has been successful with crime falling and Lincolnshire being a safe county . " Some say we are the most underrated force in the country with good performance at lowest cost , but the toll being taken on officers and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ forces can spend many millions more than Lincolnshire and this is not because of special threats or risks but simply because of history . " Mr Jones is full of praise for the force in their continued efforts to drive down crime . He adds : " I am pleased to report that in the period April to June 2016 all recorded crime showed a 1.5 per cent reduction compared to the same period last year and the five-year trend continues to show crime is reducing in Lincolnshire . " The latest data shows that Lincolnshire Police is ranked 6th out of all 43 forces in England and Wales and first amongst the forces in our region . " Mr Jones goes on to reveal house burglaries are down 6.1 per cent and anti-social behaviour down 3.4 per cent . There were 167 additional offences of violence against the person ( with injury ) but that increase is broadly in line with national figures . The figures show a success rate of resolving 30 per cent of all crimes , with a 17.6 per cent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ violence against the person with injury crimes . He says the total number of people killed or seriously injured on the county 's roads during the calendar year stands at 140 ( calculated to the end of May ) which represents a rise of 12 per cent or 15 people compared to the same period last year . Mr Jones adds : " However , overall there is an improving five-year trend and the force is on track to meet its aim of reducing the numbers of those killed and seriously injured by 20 per cent by the year ? 2020 .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', which is a different construction where 'opt out of' is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund, not the transitive out of -ing construction.

That is the stark warning from the county 's Police and Crime Commissioner Marc Jones who indicated that without the additional cash -- as much as ? 7.5 million a year -- levels of policing will be impossible to sustain . He admits the current workload is starting to take its toll on officers and staff . Mr Jones says the number of frontline officers is being currently maintained but admits there will be reductions -- without more money . In a report to be presented to the county 's Police and Crime panel on Friday , he confirms PCSOs are not being replaced when they leave . He describes the current policy on staffing as ' the least bad option ' . His comments come as latest figures show there is a 1.5 per cent reduction in the number of reported crimes across the county compared the same period last year . Lincolnshire is now among the top six performing forces in the country -- and ranked number one in the East Midlands . Mr Jones states in his report that the Government promised to change the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' . Mr Jones admits it is impossible to plan for the future but says he is ' optimistic ' the Government will deliver . He adds : " I am optimistic that the new Government understands that we are a shining example of innovation and transformation and deliver effective policing as a result . " I have made clear to them the dilemma I face and that it is in their hands to resolve it . " Mr Jones believes Lincolnshire has a particularly strong case but says the Government 's current system for allocating funding does not recognise performance -- or improvements made . He adds : " Lincolnshire delivers policing at a cost of 42p per day per resident according to Her Majesty 's Inspectorate of Constabulary . " This is the lowest cost in England and Wales and policing has been successful with crime falling and Lincolnshire being a safe county . " Some say we are the most underrated force in the country with good performance at lowest cost , but the toll being taken on officers and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ forces can spend many millions more than Lincolnshire and this is not because of special threats or risks but simply because of history . " Mr Jones is full of praise for the force in their continued efforts to drive down crime . He adds : " I am pleased to report that in the period April to June 2016 all recorded crime showed a 1.5 per cent reduction compared to the same period last year and the five-year trend continues to show crime is reducing in Lincolnshire . " The latest data shows that Lincolnshire Police is ranked 6th out of all 43 forces in England and Wales and first amongst the forces in our region . " Mr Jones goes on to reveal house burglaries are down 6.1 per cent and anti-social behaviour down 3.4 per cent . There were 167 additional offences of violence against the person ( with injury ) but that increase is broadly in line with national figures . The figures show a success rate of resolving 30 per cent of all crimes , with a 17.6 per cent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ violence against the person with injury crimes . He says the total number of people killed or seriously injured on the county 's roads during the calendar year stands at 140 ( calculated to the end of May ) which represents a rise of 12 per cent or 15 people compared to the same period last year . Mr Jones adds : " However , overall there is an improving five-year trend and the force is on track to meet its aim of reducing the numbers of those killed and seriously injured by 20 per cent by the year ? 2020 .

A man accused of using a pistol to threaten a 24-year-old man in Pocklington with intent to cause fear of violence has appeared in court . Dwayne Pedder , 37 , is accused of allegedly possessing a Glock 9mm hand gun in George Street , Pocklington , on August 2 and using it to cause fear .

Crown advocate Philip Evans said the trial indictment needed to be amended -- but could not be done soon because of the computer system -- to read an imitation firearm and replace the dagger with a bladed article . He said the indictment could be amended for a hearing on September 30 . Judge Bury ordered Pedder to stand as he told him : " The problem today is twofold .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pulling out of leading his limited-overs side against Ireland in May' involves 'pulling out of' followed by a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'pulling' and 'out of'. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The England limited-overs captain will meet with director of cricket Andrew Strauss at Loughborough to discuss his availability . But he has revealed that having twice come too close to terrorism for comfort , in Bangalore in 2010 and Bangladesh in 2013 , he vowed he would not put himself in that situation a third time . Morgan was playing for Mumbai Indians when terrorists set off two bombs at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in 2010 . Three years later he was playing in the Bangladesh Super League when widespread political unrest and terrorism claimed 40 lives with buses set on fire and trains derailed . " I have been to places before when things have become a distraction and once or twice when that has been security , and I told myself I would not put myself in that situation again , " said Morgan . " In Bangalore a bomb went off in the ground , we immediately left and went straight to the airport . And in Bangladesh @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for Premier Division Super League champions Gazi Tank Cricketers during political elections where things were incredibly violent . " Ultimately , as an individual , you need to be comfortable within yourself to be able to focus on cricket . " Playing international cricket -- or any cricket -- is not about worrying about different things , it should be the best time of your life . It should be something you are looking forward to and wanting to do well in and are able to focus on . " England 's players were briefed about security arrangements for the tour by ECB security expert Reg Dickason at their London hotel between the first and second ODIs against Pakistan , and it is Strauss 's hope the assurances will prove enough to convince most if not all of the safety of touring . But Morgan remains concerned that no one has toured since the terrorist attack in Dhaka on July 1 when 29 people died including five terrorists and two policemen , insisting that makes it " a bigger decision " . The Irishman faces @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ players will not be judged whatever conclusion they come to , he made it quite clear he would prefer if his two captains , Alastair Cook and Morgan , both travel . Cook is understood to have privately given assurances he will tour , as has Jonny Bairstow . Moeen Ali and Chris Jordan have stated publicly they will be on the plane if selected . Yet Morgan has stubbornly proved his own man before , most notably when putting a lucrative contract and a full season with the Sunrisers Hyderabad ahead of England commitments in 2015 , pulling out of leading his limited-overs side against Ireland in May . On that occasion , which came shortly after the disastrous World Cup campaign in Australia and New Zealand , he resisted pressure to pull out of the IPL , insisting those who believed he should captain the limited-overs side in Dublin were being " short-sighted " . The long-term benefits to his game , he believed , outweighed all other considerations . This time the longer term might not be so sure with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about future places , something understood to extend throughout the side and not stop short of the captain . England Test batting coach Mark Ramprakash said : " They have got a really nice team spirit going ... very well led by Eoin Morgan , and he has got the respect of the players . GETTY Mark Ramprakash is surprised that Morgan is concerned about safety having played in the IPL " So it would be disruptive if the captain was n't to go , and it would be disappointing from a cricketing point of view . " Eoin is very experienced in travelling all over India with the IPL , so I 'm a little bit surprised that he 's finding going to Bangladesh so much different .

starts at Monks Farm
To date , planning permission has been granted by Vale of White Horse District Council for 368 of the homes , while plans for the other 456 submitted in May have yet to be agreed . But housebuilder Bellway Homes has started work on the first 133 of the homes on the Monks Farm site west of Station Road , the A338 , and south of Bellingers ' garage . The area north of the village was earmarked in the Vale Local Plan 2031 as a site for more than 800 houses . Bellway said the construction of the first 133 homes would take about three years to complete , but the first homeowners would arrive in spring 2017 . Other developers have also had housing plans passed for land at Monks Farm . In February 2014 , Gallagher Estates and Gleeson Strategic Land were given the go-ahead to build the 133 homes and another plan for 75 homes west of Bellingers by the same applicants was approved in April 2015 . Williams Grand Prix Engineering Limited also had plans approved in February for 160 houses on land west @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Grove Parish Council objected to the idea of building homes on the Monks Farm site on a number of grounds . They argued the homes would be separated from the village and would not integrate because there were no roads from Grove into the estate . It has raised objections to the Gallagher and Gleeson plan for 75 homes , including inadequate parking and the scale of the homes . Speaking of the Monks Farm development , councillor Julia Reynolds said : " It 's not really going to be part of the Grove community , it 's going to be a little community set apart with no amenities and no real infrastructure . " It does n't seem there will be easy integration for them to feel part of Grove , it 's out on a limb . " Cllr Reynolds also had concerns over the scale of some of the proposed three-storey blocks , describing them as " out of keeping with the rest of the area " . But councillor Ben Mabbett , who represents Grove , took a different view @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about lots of new houses but I think there 's been a broad understanding for more . " It 's going to be a ' wait and see ' to see what happens . But I think quite a lot of the concerns have been addressed . " We have to build homes somewhere and I think looking at the area as a whole it is acceptable . " Gallagher and Gleeson 's outline planning application for the final 456 houses was sent to the Vale council in May , but a decision , which was set to be made last month , has yet to be made . The latest application would see the 456 homes built on land near Denchworth Road , north of Grove . Parish council chairman , June Stock , said : " I think the only positive thing about the Monks Farm development is that Grove CofE school in North Drive will be extended to cater for the increase in the number of children in Grove . " Should the final phase of the 824-home development be approved @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Grove Airfield estate , which received planning permission in 2013 . But building work on the airfield has been delayed for three years because a landowner is yet to sign a legal document needed before the development can start . |

Selling your home is one of the biggest financial matters most of us will ever deal with . The decisions we make when getting our homes ready for market can have a huge impact on the return we see on our investment when the buyer signs the dotted line . Online estate agents iMoveEstates have collated these top tips from leading property developers that any prospective seller should read . How to Sell Your House minus the trouble : Tip # 1 : Figure Out How Much Your House is Worth and Set a Price When you are considering selling your house , setting a price of your home should be the first step on your checklist . It is important to know how much your property is worth before you sell it . If you do not do your research well , you may either oversell it , repelling the prospective buyers or undersell it , and lose a better deal that you could have gotten fair and square . You need to take some time in figuring this out , so that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ confident that the price you have set is appropriate , and will be able to negotiate properly and in a more focused manner . Pro Tip a : Use the Zoopla Estimate to know the worth of your home This online tool is possibly the best out there in terms of approximating the value of houses most accurately . It takes in data about your home and calculates the price . It allows you to get an unbiased , calculated estimate about the pricing , so that you can sell your property in UK without facing the troubles of overselling or underselling . Pro Tip b : Keep your asking price higher than the true estimate You need to keep some breathing space for negotiation , so keep the asking price around 2 per cent to 10 per cent higher than the true value of your property , so that even if you end up lowering the price in the negotiation , you would still be getting the true value of your house in the deal . Tip # 2 : Make a Budget @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not cost you anything , but think again ! There are many costs that come with selling your house , like the cost of painting , repairs , fee of the agent , lawn maintenance , upgrading curb , replacing doors , Energy Performance Certificate ( EPC ) , etc . You need to be prepared for all of these costs , and you should list them down and plan a budget for each . This may take you some time , but once you are done with it , you will be relieved of tremendous financial troubles , as you would be prepared for these expenses , and would have set money aside for them . Tip # 3 : Settle on the Number of Agents You Wish to Use Some of you reading this blog would prefer using an agent to sell your house , while others would prefer to do it on their own . Both choices have their own pros and cons , and since every person 's needs differ , their choices would , too . Although choosing an agent is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ experience in the real estate industry , and are ready to take on the responsibilities yourself and do not worry about the time frame of selling your house , then you can sell privately , too . For those of you looking to sell your house fast , or those who are new to this experience , you should hire an agent , as they would utilise their extensive experience in helping you to sell your property fast . Tip # 4 : Improve the Curb Appeal of Your House First impressions matter . When a prospective buyer walks past your lane , what would they look for ? How comfy the exterior looks , obviously ! The biggest mistake that you could make in selling your house is not paying attention to your curb . It is understandable that the curb often gets neglected as we consider upgrading what we notice most , i.e. , the interior of the house . There is no doubt that the interior of your house is important , too , but the curb is the face that sells your @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Improving your curb appeal gives you the added advantage of standing out from your neighbours . If your house is the most attractive in the neighbourhood , buyers will definitely gravitate towards your house to get a tour of the inside . It is important that you keep your curb maintained so that when people come over to view homes in your neighbourhood , they wo n't be able to resist taking a look at yours . Tip # 5 : Make Necessary Upgrades You need to make the necessary upgrades that your house needs , both inside and outside . While adding a new bathroom may add an amenity for the prospective buyer , it may not always give you the return you expected . An article published in the Realtor Magazine in 2013 listed the renovations and additions to a house according to the cost recouped . There are some famous upgrades , like roofing or a bathroom remodelling , that people swear by to bring the highest rate of return . However , the data shows that it only recoups 56.7 per cent and 58.3 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into what and how to renovate when you are deciding on the best upgrades , in order to sell your house fast , you can look here for guidance . Tip # 6 : Take Professional Pictures Humans respond to and process visual data better than any other type of data . So , no matter if the description beside the picture of your house lists down the best amenities and the best price , if it is not visually pleasing , your prospective buyer would move on to the next house on the list . Whether you are selling your house online , or are placing ads the traditional way , the pictures that you use for your home should be of high quality and should be able to convince a buyer to consider your house . It is a good idea to hire a professional photographer to take pictures of your home in the best angles and light that enhances its beauty and hides any of its flaws . Make sure that the upgrades you have made to your house are included in the pictures @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , you need to sit down , relax , and carefully sift the best ones from the pile . These images will help you attract buyers to visit and consider your house for buying . Tip # 7 : Price it Right , but Sweeten the Deal with Additional Benefits In marketing , one of the main rules is to never underestimate the value of added benefits .

Selling your home is one of the biggest financial matters most of us will ever deal with . The decisions we make when getting our homes ready for market can have a huge impact on the return we see on our investment when the buyer signs the dotted line . Online estate agents iMoveEstates have collated these top tips from leading property developers that any prospective seller should read . How to Sell Your House minus the trouble : Tip # 1 : Figure Out How Much Your House is Worth and Set a Price When you are considering selling your house , setting a price of your home should be the first step on your checklist . It is important to know how much your property is worth before you sell it . If you do not do your research well , you may either oversell it , repelling the prospective buyers or undersell it , and lose a better deal that you could have gotten fair and square . You need to take some time in figuring this out , so that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ confident that the price you have set is appropriate , and will be able to negotiate properly and in a more focused manner . Pro Tip a : Use the Zoopla Estimate to know the worth of your home This online tool is possibly the best out there in terms of approximating the value of houses most accurately . It takes in data about your home and calculates the price . It allows you to get an unbiased , calculated estimate about the pricing , so that you can sell your property in UK without facing the troubles of overselling or underselling . Pro Tip b : Keep your asking price higher than the true estimate You need to keep some breathing space for negotiation , so keep the asking price around 2 per cent to 10 per cent higher than the true value of your property , so that even if you end up lowering the price in the negotiation , you would still be getting the true value of your house in the deal . Tip # 2 : Make a Budget @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not cost you anything , but think again ! There are many costs that come with selling your house , like the cost of painting , repairs , fee of the agent , lawn maintenance , upgrading curb , replacing doors , Energy Performance Certificate ( EPC ) , etc . You need to be prepared for all of these costs , and you should list them down and plan a budget for each . This may take you some time , but once you are done with it , you will be relieved of tremendous financial troubles , as you would be prepared for these expenses , and would have set money aside for them . Tip # 3 : Settle on the Number of Agents You Wish to Use Some of you reading this blog would prefer using an agent to sell your house , while others would prefer to do it on their own . Both choices have their own pros and cons , and since every person 's needs differ , their choices would , too . Although choosing an agent is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ experience in the real estate industry , and are ready to take on the responsibilities yourself and do not worry about the time frame of selling your house , then you can sell privately , too . For those of you looking to sell your house fast , or those who are new to this experience , you should hire an agent , as they would utilise their extensive experience in helping you to sell your property fast . Tip # 4 : Improve the Curb Appeal of Your House First impressions matter . When a prospective buyer walks past your lane , what would they look for ? How comfy the exterior looks , obviously ! The biggest mistake that you could make in selling your house is not paying attention to your curb . It is understandable that the curb often gets neglected as we consider upgrading what we notice most , i.e. , the interior of the house . There is no doubt that the interior of your house is important , too , but the curb is the face that sells your @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Improving your curb appeal gives you the added advantage of standing out from your neighbours . If your house is the most attractive in the neighbourhood , buyers will definitely gravitate towards your house to get a tour of the inside . It is important that you keep your curb maintained so that when people come over to view homes in your neighbourhood , they wo n't be able to resist taking a look at yours . Tip # 5 : Make Necessary Upgrades You need to make the necessary upgrades that your house needs , both inside and outside . While adding a new bathroom may add an amenity for the prospective buyer , it may not always give you the return you expected . An article published in the Realtor Magazine in 2013 listed the renovations and additions to a house according to the cost recouped . There are some famous upgrades , like roofing or a bathroom remodelling , that people swear by to bring the highest rate of return . However , the data shows that it only recoups 56.7 per cent and 58.3 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into what and how to renovate when you are deciding on the best upgrades , in order to sell your house fast , you can look here for guidance . Tip # 6 : Take Professional Pictures Humans respond to and process visual data better than any other type of data . So , no matter if the description beside the picture of your house lists down the best amenities and the best price , if it is not visually pleasing , your prospective buyer would move on to the next house on the list . Whether you are selling your house online , or are placing ads the traditional way , the pictures that you use for your home should be of high quality and should be able to convince a buyer to consider your house . It is a good idea to hire a professional photographer to take pictures of your home in the best angles and light that enhances its beauty and hides any of its flaws . Make sure that the upgrades you have made to your house are included in the pictures @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , you need to sit down , relax , and carefully sift the best ones from the pile . These images will help you attract buyers to visit and consider your house for buying . Tip # 7 : Price it Right , but Sweeten the Deal with Additional Benefits In marketing , one of the main rules is to never underestimate the value of added benefits . When you are about to sell your home , you are essentially treading the path of a marketer . Take this tip from the best , and add an incentive for the buyer . It could be anything -- a transferable home warranty to offering or pay the closing costs -- that would set you apart from the same-priced houses in the market , and would help you close a deal quicker .

The stars of ... Magnificent Seven have defended the recent spate of Hollywood remakes , with actor Chris Pratt insisting it is a result of " merging business and art " . Denzel Washington , Ethan Hawke and their co-star Pratt walked the red carpet at the film 's world premiere on the opening night of the Toronto International Film Festival . The trio star in a new version of the classic 1960 Western , which originally featured Yul Brynner and Steve McQueen , and which itself was a remake of the Japanese-language film Seven Samurai . After a string of recent high-profile remakes or " reboots " , including Ghostbusters and Ben Hur , Washington insisted revisiting a film that already existed was not why he chose the part .

" I think it allowed me to do whatever I wanted to do , instead of trying to not do what somebody else did . " Pratt insisted the new version of The Magnificent Seven is a " re-imagining of an older tale " and using the same title would bring a larger audience . He told the Press Association : " The reason remakes are so popular is because there are hundreds of thousands of movies that have been made . Even coming up with an original title is difficult .

The sentence 'Can I opt out of receiving Cookies?' does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of', and the phrase 'receiving Cookies' is not a VP[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'receiving Cookies' is a gerund phrase functioning as the object of the preposition 'out of'.

Figures released by Midlothian Council have revealed that fewer than three people a day are using the ? 69,000 hop-on/ hop-off tourist bus . When launched in April it was hoped that the ? 69,000 pilot project ' Midlothian Explorer ' bus would boost local tourist attractions on the route including the National Mining Museum in Newtongrange , Dalkeith Country Park and Rosslyn Chapel .

Figures released by Midlothian Council have revealed that fewer than three people a day are using the ? 69,000 hop-on/ hop-off tourist bus . When launched in April it was hoped that the ? 69,000 pilot project ' Midlothian Explorer ' bus would boost local tourist attractions on the route including the National Mining Museum in Newtongrange , Dalkeith Country Park and Rosslyn Chapel . However , Midlothian Council has admitted that the level of use has been " lower than expected " .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', which is a different construction where 'opt out of' is followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks the necessary NP object and does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

A teenager who was left for dead in a horrific ' road rage ' hit-and-run near South Newbald has spoken for the first time about her remarkable battle back to health . Emily Kirwin was just four years old when she was sitting in a trailer on the back of her dad 's bike when a driver stopped and reversed at speed over them before fleeing the scene . The toddler was found by her mum , Maureen , hanging upside down in her buggy , which was mangled beneath the Range Rover 's wheels . Emily 's head injuries were so severe that medics feared she would not survive . Now 18 , Emily , from North Cave , went on to make a full recovery but it took years of treatment . Only recently could medics say for sure there had been no long-term damage . Now , 14 years on , Emily can finally put it behind her after settling a civil case against the driver 's insurers for an undisclosed , five-figure sum . She said : " In a way @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ accident , whereas I can only remember waking up in hospital . I 'd been in a coma for six days . " My jaw was broken -- I 'd lost most of my baby teeth -- my nose was fractured and I could n't focus properly . I did n't even have the strength to walk for weeks .

" The driver gave himself up to police and was jailed for two years after admitting dangerous driving , causing grievous bodily harm and failing to stop after the incident in June 2002 .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'These men' is the NP subject, 'conned' is the V1, 'him' is the NP object, and 'everything he had ever worked for' can be interpreted as a VP2[-ing] predicate implying 'working for'. It also fits the prevention interpretation, as the men prevented the victim from keeping what he had worked for by means of conning.

TWO men have been jailed for a total of nine years after defrauding a New Forest pensioner out of his life savings . Kevin Smith and Carl Anscombe , both from West Sussex , were sentenced yesterday for conspiracy to commit fraud by false representation . Smith , aged 30 , from Stopham View , Pulborough , was sentenced to two years in prison after being found guilty by a jury at Southampton Crown Court in July 2016 . Anscombe , aged 46 , Greenways in Polegate , was sentenced to seven years in prison after pleading guilty to the offence in November last year . In July 2013 , Anscombe and Smith set about befriending a 68-year-old man from the New Forest . The pair , acting under fake names , fabricated a story to convince the man of a bogus investment opportunity at a mobile home park in Surrey . The duo convinced the man there were good profits to be made and proceeded to convince him to part with more than ? 89,000 in cash payments over just a few months . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Anscombe and Smith even resorted to encouraging him to take out loans .

" This sentence wo n't ever be able to replace what the victim has lost or alleviate what he has been through , however it does mean these men ca n't take financial advantage of anyone else , any time soon .

The word " ... " has a specific military connotation , and that particular stint was to raise money for ABF , the soldier 's charity - again partly because of a family connection .

Her call came yesterday - on FASD Day- and just days after the UK 's Chief Medical Officers have confirmed official guidance that women who are pregnant or thinking of getting pregnant should avoid alcohol altogether if they want to keep the risks to their baby to a minimum . FASD , which is estimated to affect 1 in 100 babies every year , is a series of preventable birth defects , both mental and physical , caused by drinking alcohol at any time during pregnancy . These defects only exist because of prenatal exposure to alcohol . Ssingle mum Libby , 34 and from the North East , has been living with the effects of FASD since her two-year-old adopted daughter , who can not be named , came into her life just over a year ago . Having worked with vulnerable people and families through her various charity roles , Libby went into the adoption process with an awareness of FASD @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was matched with a child who had the condition . When her daughter first came to live with her she had not been officially diagnosed with FASD , but Libby had a strong feeling that she had the condition because of her physical and emotional behaviour . She also showed some of the facial features associated with FASD . Libby said : " I was aware there was a chance my daughter could have FASD before I adopted her , but as soon as we got the official diagnosis six months into the adoption , it was a huge relief . I was expecting a long battle to get the support we needed . " Even though I thought I knew a bit about FASD beforehand , living with the condition is totally different . When you first meet her , my daughter appears like a normal child , but as soon as she 's in a situation she finds difficult to cope with , she 'll react aggressively or get upset . I have n't slept much at all in the past year . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ finds it hard to cope with noise and will react aggressively towards herself , banging her head and punching herself . She also finds it difficult to make eye contact and her interactions , behaviour and play , are n't as they should be for a child of her age . " FASD is not an easy diagnosis to manage . As well as the day-to-day challenges we face together , it 's difficult to accept as FASD is totally preventable . I also know that as she grows up , my daughter will have to come to terms with the fact that she has an irreversible condition that could have been prevented . " Yesterday marked the first FASD Awareness Day since new drinking guidelines were introduced by the Government 's Chief Medical Officers and Libby is keen that the advice is heard far and wide . Libby continued : " For me , it 's not about blame , shame and judgement . No one wants to deliberately harm their child . A lot of the time when people have drunk in pregnancy , it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " But in the same way you would n't give a newborn baby a drink , if you 're pregnant , or even just thinking about becoming pregnant , it 's so important to give up the drink . Just take nine months off . There 's no safe amount of alcohol during pregnancy and there 's no way of knowing how your baby will be affected . Your future with your child is absolutely worth giving up alcohol for . " Babies with FASD bring so much love , joy and happiness wherever they go ; there 's something so sociable about them and they 're genuinely lovely to be around , but they also have to go through so much on a daily basis and I do worry about what the future has in store . When you read stats about people with FASD having mental health issues throughout their lives , getting into crime and struggling to get employment , it 's worrying , but I have to stay positive and take one day at a time . " We 've been lucky because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ We have a great paediatrician and access to occupational therapy ; we can also access plenty of resources and have a lot of support around us . " We regularly meet up with other FASD families through the FASD Network , which I 'd be lost without . But I know many people who just have n't been able to access the support they need because it 's taken so long to get a diagnosis , and I think it 's so important to raise awareness of the condition because of this .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Therefore, it does not qualify as an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Two thirds of British parents have embraced austerity by cutting back on their standard of living to pay for their children 's university education , according to a new poll . The research , from Nationwide FlexStudent , also reveals that many students spend their loans within the first few months on a range of outgoings , from holidays and cars to nights out and new clothes . The research , which coincides with the roll out of Nationwide 's new FlexStudent current account , highlights that parents quickly find themselves stuck on a strict budget when their child goes to university , with many discretionary outgoings being reined in . This results in over two thirds ( 68% ) having to make up the shortfall themselves .

But with parents estimating the bill for university to be in the region of ? 2,500 per year , totalling ? 7,500 for a three-year course per child , it 's perhaps not surprising that cutting basic outgoings is often a foregone conclusion . While parents are forced to scrimp and save , the poll reveals that students are less willing to sacrifice their lifestyle if they run out of money , with around one in three ( 30% ) going to their parents when they have no money in the first instance , rather than forego nights out ( 5% ) , cutting back on what they spend on food ( 5% ) , getting a job ( 9% ) or doing more hours at work ( 11% ) . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ loan , with 29 per cent saying they spend it all within a few months of receiving it , and just over one in ten ( 12% ) admitting to spending it in the first month .

It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', which is a different construction where 'opt out of' is followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks the necessary NP object and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence 'Can I opt out of receiving Cookies?' does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of', and the phrase 'receiving Cookies' is not a VP[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'receiving Cookies' is a gerund phrase functioning as the object of the preposition 'out of'.

Customers in Donington have been left frustrated after their Post Office has been out of action for almost two weeks . Staff at the Post Office counter , which is situated inside Bargain Booze , on the High Street , have been unable to access the online Post Office network since August 27 . This has meant they can not process pension payments , pay in bills or offer usual services . The Post Office head office says the issue is down to ' technical reasons relating to broadband connection ' -- but ward councillor Jane King says the situation has become " farcical " .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, 'taken six years out of racing' uses 'out of' in a temporal sense, not indicating movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of racing' refers to a period of time away from racing, not a construction where an object is caused to move out of or prevented from an action.

One sure way to improve investment returns is to keep fees to a minimum . As well as fund management charges , investors also have to pay the platform that holds their portfolio . These normally include a basic annual fee taken as a percentage of the portfolio , share dealing fees and other administration charges , which vary between Isas , self-invested personal pensions ( Sipps ) and dealing accounts . Unfortunately for investors , there is nothing to stop a platform from changing its fees , and moving a portfolio can be difficult . Those with under ? 250,000 will pay 0.25pc on any funds they hold , fund holdings between ? 250,000 and ? 1m will be charged at 0.1pc , and fund holdings between ? 1m and ? 2m will be charged at 0.05pc . Over the ? 2m mark there is no fee for fund investments . The removal of the cap is important -- wealthier investors are now likely to pay more . Here Telegraph Money takes you through the ins and outs of moving a portfolio , how to decide @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in reality . The usual way to transfer a portfolio is through an " in specie " transfer , which is a process that allows you to move an investment without selling it . For this to be carried out successfully , the platform you are moving to needs to offer access to all of the funds that you hold . How much this costs depends on the platform involved , but there could be exit fees . These vary as some do n't charge them at all , some have a limited number of holdings that can be transferred for free and others charge for every holding . Choosing the best investment platform for youPlay ! 02:42 Where charges are applied , it is usually per " line " of stock , in other words applying to each fund or share owned . There may also be a fee to transfer cash . For instance , Hargreaves Lansdown , the UK 's largest broker , charges a ? 25 closure fee , a ? 25 fee to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ while remaining invested . For a ? 100,000 portfolio comprising 20 holdings , the charge would be ? 525 , or 0.5pc of the fund 's value . There are some tactics that can be deployed by investors to reduce the cost of a move . These are not universally applicable , as whether they save any money will depend on the specific platforms being moved between , the portfolio size , and what underlying assets are held . Do n't butcher your portfolio to do this ; you should still be confident in it as a long-term hold , so selling out of core elements to reduce the cost of the move is not wise . A more extreme option if a move is looking particularly punitive is to sell out of everything , move in cash , and either re-buy investments , or even just buy a single one-stop-shop fund , such as Vanguard 's LifeStrategy fund range . However , this approach does carry significant risk , and is likely to only suit a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ planner at Plutus Wealth Management , said : " It is a viable option as long as you accept that dealing charges might be incurred and that you are likely to be ' out of the market ' from anywhere between two and six weeks , possibly more . " The problem with not being invested for a period is that missing out on the best days of the market can catastrophically affecting long term returns , as the gains made on those days are n't available to compound . A fee increase does n't mean it will be automatically worth moving . Work out the potential annual saving you could make if you transferred , factoring in dealing charges , and a reasonable expectation of annual investment growth including any money you plan to add . Then calculate how much the move itself will cost you . With these two figures , you should be able to work out a rough breakeven cost for the move . If that point is well within your @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it . For instance , a ? 250,000 Isa invested only in funds , with eight fund deals a year , cost ? 240 annually with AJ Bell before the fee change . After the change it would cost ? 637 . Transferring to a platform with a fee cap or flat fee could recoup hundreds per year in this case , meaning it would not take long to hit the breakeven point . Do n't forget however , that there is always a risk of the new platform changing its fee structure too . Bear in mind some charges will only be incurred once you start taking an income from your pot , this might not be obvious when opening an account many years before retirement . Alison Treharne , a chartered financial planner at Shore Financial Planning , said : " Typically transfers can take just a few working days once all paperwork has been received by the ceding provider , the average is less than 10 days in my experience . Ms Treharne also flagged that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be factored in , and some investment types , such as commercial property , can add weeks to a transfer . Edward Lowe , 52 , is an IT consultant who has decided to move his Sipp -- and eventually all of his family holdings -- from AJ Bell to Interactive Investor following the former 's fee cap removal .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase 'receiving Cookies', but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'make a career out of flying' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

of tarmac that sheers off the edge of a narrow valley in Nepal 's Himalayas , is widely considered the world 's most dangerous airport . But for bush pilot Matt Dearden , who flies the rugged and often uncharted terrain of Indonesian New Guinea , landing on muddy ridgelines and vertiginous , hand-dug slopes , Lukla holds no fear .
" Lukla 's a piece of cake , " he said . " It 's a big tarmac runway . It 's pretty long . Some of the stuff we fly to goes up to about a 30% incline , which is ridiculously steep -- you 'd struggle to drive a Land Rover up it . " Dearden 's background is far from the daredevil history one might expect of a pilot who sometimes flies equipped only with a hand-drawn map . He has a degree in computer science and worked as a programmer in Bristol for eight years . " I did enjoy doing it until about four years in , " he recalled . " I got very bored of Monday to Friday , nine to five , and thought I 'd learn @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gifts varying from net bags to live chickens . The chickens are quite a big honour . ' Two lessons in , his instructors told him he could make a career out of flying . And , with his sights set on a European airline , perhaps easyJet or Ryanair , Dearden embarked on the gruelling professional training . The conventional route to a commercial pilot 's licence -- a full-time , 18-month programme of study -- was never an option financially . " I did a modular route , " he said . " You can take as long as you like within some limits and spread it out over three or four years while holding down a full-time job . " Like many aspiring pilots , Dearden moved in with his parents and rented out his flat to fund his professional exams and costly flying practice . " I 'd come home from work , have dinner , hit the books , " he says . " It was solid . " But when he finally qualified , four years later , jobs were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of applications to anyone with an aeroplane , " he said . " I got very few replies and they all said : ' We 're not recruiting anyone with 200-odd hours , straight out of flight school . ' " It 's a pretty butt-clenching experience when something runs out in front of the plane Matt Dearden Although he would have struggled to place Indonesia on a map , he applied for an opportunity with the nation 's Susi Air . On a Sunday , out of the blue , he received an email asking him to start in 10 days . The boss of his small company , which had just seven staff , was remarkably understanding . So Dearden worked one last week , booked flights to Jakarta , packed what he could into a bag and began navigating Indonesia 's storm-swept , tropical skies . Many of Indonesia 's 17,000-odd islands are home to tiny communities isolated from the rest of the nation by distance or terrain , making access to schools , markets , government offices and even medical care @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ flights to connect some of these remote outposts to the wider world . Dearden began flying these routes and , while working in New Guinea , fell in love with a plane : the nine-seater , three-wheeled Pilatus Porter . " It 's a proper pilot 's aircraft . You 've only got one pilot on board so you 're your own commander , " he said . " It 's known among pilots as this beast of an aircraft that can land on anything you want to call an airstrip and descend through the smallest gap in the clouds . It 's just a delight to fly . " A short hop between villages might take just a couple of minutes by plane yet spares locals days of walking . After a few months of survey flights , he progressed to carrying passengers and cargo to and from isolated highland villages . New Guinea 's terrain is so savagely corrugated that a short intra-village hop might take just a couple of minutes yet spare locals days of burdened walking . " It 's amazing how @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ says . " There 's often raging rivers at the bottom of them and they build these vine bridges which are n't the safest . So if you get a plane that hops over the valley or even over the peak and to the next valley it can save a lot of time and effort . " Airstrip building in Indonesian New Guinea 's interior , where people lived without the wheel or metal and had minimal contact with outsiders until around 70 years ago , is a communal effort . Villagers , many of whom will never have seen a plane , work together to clear and sculpt landing strips , a process that can take many years : the first flight into a village is a spectacular event for locals . " You 'll land and everyone will dance and chant and run around the aeroplane , shaking your hands , " Dearden said . " There 'll be a presentation where they all sit down -- you 'll usually fly in some kind of official to make an official opening -- and they 'll give @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ chickens are quite a big honour . " Taking off with such brand new fliers , many of whom have never travelled in any kind of vehicle , can present its challenges . Villagers sit on the ground , so are unfamiliar with the concept of seats , let alone seat belts . While some embrace flying with serenity , others spend the entire journey hysterical with fear . ' It 's known among pilots as this beast of an aircraft that can land on anything you want to call an airstrip . ' The airstrips themselves can be a hurdle . It 's not uncommon for the 2.5 ton plane to get stuck in muddy patches and for the entire village to team up to dig it out . As open space , the village airstrip also becomes a focus for community living , from markets through to football matches , not to mention a magnet for dogs , pigs and chickens . " A lot of those runways you 're going in and you 're already too tight because of the shape of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pretty butt-clenching experience when something runs out in front of the plane , " Dearden said . But the rewards are worth it . " The magical flights are the sunrise departures , " he said . " You 're getting airborne and it 's twilight between night and day . You push up through a small cloud layer and all the mountains are lit with this warm light with a blanket of white below you . Puncak Jaya is a snow-capped mountain at 16,000 feet in the tropics -- it 's amazing . " |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks a verb in the V1 slot that fits the categories described (e.g., deception, force, persuasion). Additionally, the phrase 'walked out of Downing Street' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The sentence is about a pay cut and rumors regarding former politicians, not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Share Announcing his resignation , he repeatedly refused to say that he agreed with her plan to open new grammar schools , saying only the proposal had ' some merit ' . ' I have my own views about certain issues , ' he said . David Cameron and Tony Blair are the only recent former Prime Ministers to have quit and triggered by-elections . Others - including Gordon Brown , Sir John Major and Margaret Thatcher - have opted to stay on until the next general election . They can then generally rely on being sent to the House of Lords - if they want to take a seat there . Mr Blair announced he would be leaving the Commons immediately after he resigned as PM in 2007 . He has since gone on to forge a highly lucrative career outside parliament , including well-paid speeches and consultancy work . It represented a final U-turn by a man who was in charge in Downing Street little more than two months ago . Before slumping to defeat in the EU referendum -- during @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he had promised his constituents he would stay on until at least 2020 . As recently as July 13 he pledged to watch on from the backbenches . The friends said he did not want to turn into a ' Ted Heath figure , sulking and hanging around ' . Others said he was simply crushed by the loss of power and could not come to terms with his dramatic reverse of fortune . The decision paves the way for Mr Cameron to make millions of pounds . His memoirs are likely to command a seven-figure-sum and there will be lucrative opportunities on the speaking circuit . He is also likely to seek a job running a major international organisation in charge of overseas aid or countering extremism . Mr Cameron informed Mrs May -- with whom he had a fractious relationship in power -- yesterday morning . Theresa May said she was ' proud ' to serve in Mr Cameron 's government and he had achieved ' great things ' . But they were on a collision course over plans to extend grammar @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ which he had lived in for six years - flanked by Mrs Cameron and their children He insisted the timing of his announcement , just as the grammar revolution was being presented to MPs , was coincidental . But he did not pretend he had no differences of opinion with Mrs May , who has junked his flagship policies on childhood obesity and the budget deficit . The resignation of David Cameron from the Commons has sparked furious speculation over who might replace him . The highly regarded leader of the Scottish Tories Ruth Davidson was immediately named by some as a possible candidate for the plumb seat - but the high flyer has swiftly ruled herself out . Others in contention could be : Esther McVey - the former work and pensions minister lost her Commons seat in Wirral West at the last election after a bitter fight against Labour . A former TV presenter , Ms McVey was a key face of the coalition government and is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hannan - a senior MEP who was one of the leading lights of the Brexit campaign . Mr Hannan has proudly declared victory in his campaign for his own redundancy from the European Parliament and could be looking for a new job . Ian Hudspeth - the leader of Oxfordshire County Council and a key player in local politics . If the local Tory party wants a local candidate to replace Mr Cameron , Mr Hudspeth could be top of the list . Mr Cameron told ITV News : ' As a former PM it 's very difficult to sit as a backbencher and not be an enormous diversion and distraction from what the government is doing . I do n't want to be that distraction . ' He praised Mrs May for making a ' cracking start ' , adding : ' This decision has got nothing to do with any one individual issue and that way the timing I promise is coincidental . ' But he hinted that if he stayed on the backbenches he might get a reputation as somebody who caused trouble @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bigger picture really which is , whatever the issue as a former PM , being a backbench MP , it 's difficult not to be a distraction and diversion and therefore build a reputation for yourself in politics that I do n't really want to have . ' Friends said he would have found it hard to vote with Mrs May on grammar schools , as would have been expected of him . With new grammars facing opposition from some Tory MPs -- and Mrs May having a majority of only 17 -- his vote could have proved crucial . His allies said that , as the referendum result sunk in over the summer , he realised it was impossible to carry on . A by-election will be held in his safe Oxfordshire seat of Witney within weeks . Mrs May said : ' I was proud to serve in David Cameron 's government -- and under his leadership we achieved great things . ' Not just stabilising the economy , but also making great strides in delivering serious social reform . His commitment to lead @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . ' I thank him for everything he has done for the Conservative Party and the country and I wish him and his family well for the future . ' The reaction from other Tories was mixed . Former Chancellor George Osborne voiced sorry at the departure of his long-term ally Tory MPs lined up to pay tribute to Mr Cameron after his resignation announcement Lord Hague said : ' Right decision by David Cameron to leave Commons -- former prime ministers are either accused of doing too little or being a distraction ' . George Osborne , his closest ally and ex-chancellor , said : ' Sorry to see my great friend stepping down -- he loved being Witney 's MP . I know how difficult this decision has been for him . ' While Ukip Douglas Carswell made a tongue-in-cheek jibe about the new ceremonial post Mr Cameron will hold in order to leave the Commons SNP Stewart McDonald raised the prospect of Scottish Tory leader Ruth Davidson going for the seat - although she has repeatedly ruled out coming to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out on being Tory leader to Mr Cameron , said : ' He was a very good prime minister . ' Lord Ashcroft , the former Tory Treasurer who has repeatedly clashed with the former PM , said : ' Sooner or later David Cameron will emerge as Lord Cameron and rightly so ' . Nick Boles , who served as skills minister under Mr Cameron , paid tribute to his equal marriage legislation . He added : ' Grateful to David Cameron for many things but most of all for giving me the chance to know the joy of marriage . Thank you boss . ' Ruth Davidson , the Scottish Tory leader , suggested Mr Cameron should have stayed on as an MP : ' Sorry to see David Cameron standing down . He transformed the party and country . Parliament benefits from experience of office on backbenches ' . Nadine Dorries , who has attacked Mr Cameron as an out-of-touch toff , said on Twitter : ' David Cameron expected every MP to support him 100% regardless of view or principle . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . ' One close friend who has known Mr Cameron for years says : ' I had the strong impression before the EU vote , which he was convinced he would win , that he would go much sooner than people thought , mainly for Sam 's sake . ' Hubristically he wanted to be able to say he had walked away after winning three referendums ( Brexit , Scottish independence and the AV vote ) and two general elections , while setting things up for George Osborne as his preferred successor . ' David Cameron kept an up to date cheat sheet on everyday household goods during his six-year spell as Prime Minister it was revealed today . The list helped him stay in touch with the lives of voters so he avoided tricky questions from journalists on the price of everything from a pint of milk to a loaf of bread . The prices were updated regularly by civil servants in a helpful document , which was published by the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Cameron embarrassing himself when asked the price of a cheap loaf of white bread . He told LBC 's Nick Ferrari in 2013 that the cost was ' well north of a pound ' but was quickly corrected by the presenter , who informed the PM that the price of a value white loaf was 47p . The error is believed to be the fault of his cheat sheet authors , who made the mistake of using average prices and not the cost the poorest families would pay . The document kept him up to date with the latest price of milk , coffee , draught lager , cigarettes , diesel , petrol and even the cost of a single tube journey . It also briefed him on the different minimum wage rates for each age group and the latest economic data . The Labour MP did not know the name of the French foreign minister Jean-Marc Ayrault and could n't even answer what gender South Korean President Park Geun-hye is in an interview with Sky News presenter Dermot Murnaghan . Remarkably she accused @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ quiz ' questions , claiming he did not ask similar questions of male politicians . David Cameron said he had made no ' firm decision 's about his future career after announcing he is standing down as an MP with immediate effect . But since leaving Downing Street in July , several hints of his future have emerged and he is expected to spend the next year penning his memoirs , which promise to raise millions of pounds for the family finances . Allies say he is aiming to beat the ? 4.6million advance that Tony Blair received for his autobiography - A Journey - published in 2010 . The former Labour PM donated the advance and all royalties to the Armed Forces charity The Royal British Legion . Mr Cameron , who took a ? 75,000 pay cut the minute he walked out of Downing Street , has also been rumoured @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ where former top rank politicians can rake in far more money than they did in office . Friends of the former PM have said he is looking at setting up a ' life chances foundation ' dedicated to improving opportunities for the most disadvantaged in society . He was understood to be worried that such a move would be seen as ' interfering ' with Mrs May 's Government agenda but standing down as an MP will allow him to pursue this avenue . It could mirror the Clinton Foundation , a global network of charities set up by Bill and Hillary Clinton after they left the White House and used to funnel the couple 's charitable ambitions . Having witnessed the public scepticism Mr Blair has attracted for his ever-growing global business empire , the independently-wealthy and PR-savvy Mr Cameron is unlikely to follow in his footsteps . But having played such an influential role on the world stage as PM and his wide network of contacts would easily land him well-paid consulting roles across the globe . David Cameron has announced he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . He had previously insisted he would stay on until 2020 and beyond A number of low-key but lucrative non-executive corporate roles could also be an easy route to bump up the Cameron bank balance - a route that Sir John Major took after resigning as PM . By resigning as an MP Mr Cameron will no longer have to declare his earnings publicly - removing a key obstacle to him signing big-money contracts with firms or foreign governments he would not want documented every month in the in the MPs ' register of interests , where MPs have to declare any income they receive over ? 100 . Aides had said Mr Cameron was unlikely to take any big-money jobs over the next 21 months , treating the next year as ' a sort of gap year before he re-emerges into the spotlight ' but his resignation suggests he might have a more lucrative short-term future lined up . Asked about his future career ambitions after announcing his shock resignation today , Mr Cameron said : ' I have n't made firm decisions . I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is to leave the House of Commons and stop being an MP . ' With a heavy heart because I have loved the job but I do n't think it works for a former PM who resigned in my circumstances , with all the new government needs to do . Issues for the future , I 'll decide them in the future . ' I 'll want to continue campaigning on a local , national and international level issues that were part of my Prime Ministership where I think we made some good progress . There 's still a lot more to be done . ' Friends of the Cameron family expect Samantha 's career to take more of a priority now he is free of politics . ' David will put her first now , ' one friend said after they quit Downing Street in July .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks a VP2[-ing] predicate and does not exhibit either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a situation where a pay cut occurred when someone walked out of a place, which is unrelated to the transitive out of -ing construction.

Share Announcing his resignation , he repeatedly refused to say that he agreed with her plan to open new grammar schools , saying only the proposal had ' some merit ' . ' I have my own views about certain issues , ' he said . David Cameron and Tony Blair are the only recent former Prime Ministers to have quit and triggered by-elections . Others - including Gordon Brown , Sir John Major and Margaret Thatcher - have opted to stay on until the next general election . They can then generally rely on being sent to the House of Lords - if they want to take a seat there . Mr Blair announced he would be leaving the Commons immediately after he resigned as PM in 2007 . He has since gone on to forge a highly lucrative career outside parliament , including well-paid speeches and consultancy work . It represented a final U-turn by a man who was in charge in Downing Street little more than two months ago . Before slumping to defeat in the EU referendum -- during @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he had promised his constituents he would stay on until at least 2020 . As recently as July 13 he pledged to watch on from the backbenches . The friends said he did not want to turn into a ' Ted Heath figure , sulking and hanging around ' . Others said he was simply crushed by the loss of power and could not come to terms with his dramatic reverse of fortune . The decision paves the way for Mr Cameron to make millions of pounds . His memoirs are likely to command a seven-figure-sum and there will be lucrative opportunities on the speaking circuit . He is also likely to seek a job running a major international organisation in charge of overseas aid or countering extremism . Mr Cameron informed Mrs May -- with whom he had a fractious relationship in power -- yesterday morning . Theresa May said she was ' proud ' to serve in Mr Cameron 's government and he had achieved ' great things ' . But they were on a collision course over plans to extend grammar @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ which he had lived in for six years - flanked by Mrs Cameron and their children He insisted the timing of his announcement , just as the grammar revolution was being presented to MPs , was coincidental . But he did not pretend he had no differences of opinion with Mrs May , who has junked his flagship policies on childhood obesity and the budget deficit . The resignation of David Cameron from the Commons has sparked furious speculation over who might replace him . The highly regarded leader of the Scottish Tories Ruth Davidson was immediately named by some as a possible candidate for the plumb seat - but the high flyer has swiftly ruled herself out . Others in contention could be : Esther McVey - the former work and pensions minister lost her Commons seat in Wirral West at the last election after a bitter fight against Labour . A former TV presenter , Ms McVey was a key face of the coalition government and is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hannan - a senior MEP who was one of the leading lights of the Brexit campaign . Mr Hannan has proudly declared victory in his campaign for his own redundancy from the European Parliament and could be looking for a new job . Ian Hudspeth - the leader of Oxfordshire County Council and a key player in local politics . If the local Tory party wants a local candidate to replace Mr Cameron , Mr Hudspeth could be top of the list . Mr Cameron told ITV News : ' As a former PM it 's very difficult to sit as a backbencher and not be an enormous diversion and distraction from what the government is doing . I do n't want to be that distraction . ' He praised Mrs May for making a ' cracking start ' , adding : ' This decision has got nothing to do with any one individual issue and that way the timing I promise is coincidental . ' But he hinted that if he stayed on the backbenches he might get a reputation as somebody who caused trouble @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bigger picture really which is , whatever the issue as a former PM , being a backbench MP , it 's difficult not to be a distraction and diversion and therefore build a reputation for yourself in politics that I do n't really want to have . ' Friends said he would have found it hard to vote with Mrs May on grammar schools , as would have been expected of him . With new grammars facing opposition from some Tory MPs -- and Mrs May having a majority of only 17 -- his vote could have proved crucial . His allies said that , as the referendum result sunk in over the summer , he realised it was impossible to carry on . A by-election will be held in his safe Oxfordshire seat of Witney within weeks . Mrs May said : ' I was proud to serve in David Cameron 's government -- and under his leadership we achieved great things . ' Not just stabilising the economy , but also making great strides in delivering serious social reform . His commitment to lead @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . ' I thank him for everything he has done for the Conservative Party and the country and I wish him and his family well for the future . ' The reaction from other Tories was mixed . Former Chancellor George Osborne voiced sorry at the departure of his long-term ally Tory MPs lined up to pay tribute to Mr Cameron after his resignation announcement Lord Hague said : ' Right decision by David Cameron to leave Commons -- former prime ministers are either accused of doing too little or being a distraction ' . George Osborne , his closest ally and ex-chancellor , said : ' Sorry to see my great friend stepping down -- he loved being Witney 's MP . I know how difficult this decision has been for him . ' While Ukip Douglas Carswell made a tongue-in-cheek jibe about the new ceremonial post Mr Cameron will hold in order to leave the Commons SNP Stewart McDonald raised the prospect of Scottish Tory leader Ruth Davidson going for the seat - although she has repeatedly ruled out coming to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out on being Tory leader to Mr Cameron , said : ' He was a very good prime minister . ' Lord Ashcroft , the former Tory Treasurer who has repeatedly clashed with the former PM , said : ' Sooner or later David Cameron will emerge as Lord Cameron and rightly so ' . Nick Boles , who served as skills minister under Mr Cameron , paid tribute to his equal marriage legislation . He added : ' Grateful to David Cameron for many things but most of all for giving me the chance to know the joy of marriage . Thank you boss . ' Ruth Davidson , the Scottish Tory leader , suggested Mr Cameron should have stayed on as an MP : ' Sorry to see David Cameron standing down . He transformed the party and country . Parliament benefits from experience of office on backbenches ' . Nadine Dorries , who has attacked Mr Cameron as an out-of-touch toff , said on Twitter : ' David Cameron expected every MP to support him 100% regardless of view or principle . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . ' One close friend who has known Mr Cameron for years says : ' I had the strong impression before the EU vote , which he was convinced he would win , that he would go much sooner than people thought , mainly for Sam 's sake . ' Hubristically he wanted to be able to say he had walked away after winning three referendums ( Brexit , Scottish independence and the AV vote ) and two general elections , while setting things up for George Osborne as his preferred successor . ' David Cameron kept an up to date cheat sheet on everyday household goods during his six-year spell as Prime Minister it was revealed today . The list helped him stay in touch with the lives of voters so he avoided tricky questions from journalists on the price of everything from a pint of milk to a loaf of bread . The prices were updated regularly by civil servants in a helpful document , which was published by the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Cameron embarrassing himself when asked the price of a cheap loaf of white bread . He told LBC 's Nick Ferrari in 2013 that the cost was ' well north of a pound ' but was quickly corrected by the presenter , who informed the PM that the price of a value white loaf was 47p . The error is believed to be the fault of his cheat sheet authors , who made the mistake of using average prices and not the cost the poorest families would pay . The document kept him up to date with the latest price of milk , coffee , draught lager , cigarettes , diesel , petrol and even the cost of a single tube journey . It also briefed him on the different minimum wage rates for each age group and the latest economic data . The Labour MP did not know the name of the French foreign minister Jean-Marc Ayrault and could n't even answer what gender South Korean President Park Geun-hye is in an interview with Sky News presenter Dermot Murnaghan . Remarkably she accused @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ quiz ' questions , claiming he did not ask similar questions of male politicians . David Cameron said he had made no ' firm decision 's about his future career after announcing he is standing down as an MP with immediate effect . But since leaving Downing Street in July , several hints of his future have emerged and he is expected to spend the next year penning his memoirs , which promise to raise millions of pounds for the family finances . Allies say he is aiming to beat the ? 4.6million advance that Tony Blair received for his autobiography - A Journey - published in 2010 . The former Labour PM donated the advance and all royalties to the Armed Forces charity The Royal British Legion . Mr Cameron , who took a ? 75,000 pay cut the minute he walked out of Downing Street , has also been rumoured @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ where former top rank politicians can rake in far more money than they did in office . Friends of the former PM have said he is looking at setting up a ' life chances foundation ' dedicated to improving opportunities for the most disadvantaged in society . He was understood to be worried that such a move would be seen as ' interfering ' with Mrs May 's Government agenda but standing down as an MP will allow him to pursue this avenue . It could mirror the Clinton Foundation , a global network of charities set up by Bill and Hillary Clinton after they left the White House and used to funnel the couple 's charitable ambitions . Having witnessed the public scepticism Mr Blair has attracted for his ever-growing global business empire , the independently-wealthy and PR-savvy Mr Cameron is unlikely to follow in his footsteps . But having played such an influential role on the world stage as PM and his wide network of contacts would easily land him well-paid consulting roles across the globe . David Cameron has announced he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . He had previously insisted he would stay on until 2020 and beyond A number of low-key but lucrative non-executive corporate roles could also be an easy route to bump up the Cameron bank balance - a route that Sir John Major took after resigning as PM . By resigning as an MP Mr Cameron will no longer have to declare his earnings publicly - removing a key obstacle to him signing big-money contracts with firms or foreign governments he would not want documented every month in the in the MPs ' register of interests , where MPs have to declare any income they receive over ? 100 . Aides had said Mr Cameron was unlikely to take any big-money jobs over the next 21 months , treating the next year as ' a sort of gap year before he re-emerges into the spotlight ' but his resignation suggests he might have a more lucrative short-term future lined up . Asked about his future career ambitions after announcing his shock resignation today , Mr Cameron said : ' I have n't made firm decisions . I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is to leave the House of Commons and stop being an MP . ' With a heavy heart because I have loved the job but I do n't think it works for a former PM who resigned in my circumstances , with all the new government needs to do . Issues for the future , I 'll decide them in the future . ' I 'll want to continue campaigning on a local , national and international level issues that were part of my Prime Ministership where I think we made some good progress . There 's still a lot more to be done . ' Friends of the Cameron family expect Samantha 's career to take more of a priority now he is free of politics .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase 'receiving Cookies', but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Therefore, it does not qualify as an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes a situation where someone is 'turfed out of Downing Street,' but this does not involve a verb that fits the categories for V1 in the construction, nor does it involve a causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

The plan was clear enough in David Cameron 's mind . He would stand down as an MP -- and Prime Minister -- in 2018 . Not only would he leave Downing Street with his reputation intact , he would buck the political trend by quitting ( a little earlier than he had promised ) but still as a winner , not a loser . Or so he believed when he was chatting to friends at a fireside supper at Chequers earlier this year -- long before the Brexit vote that detonated his career -- where guests included a British writer recently returned from a stint in New York . Pictured : David Cameron waves to photographers as he leaves Downing Street with his family after resigning as Prime Minister in July Cameron 's wife Samantha was grilling the writer 's companion about life in Manhattan and where the best districts were to live . ' The message from that evening was that after years of putting himself first , when the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was going to let Sam call the shots , ' says a friend . The idea seemed to be that when that time finally came in 2018 , Cameron would exit Downing Street in a blaze of glory , leaving the path clear for his Tory successor to fight the 2020 election . Only then would he concentrate on his memoirs while his wife , free from the scrutiny that had accompanied her throughout his years in office , could fulfil her dream of setting up her own fashion label . And yes , that might mean basing themselves for a stint in the US . How different and how unedifying the reality ! Only a few months after that cosy supper , and less than nine weeks after leaving No 10 , Cameron yesterday completed his flight from public office by abruptly quitting politics altogether . Political allies were quick to defend him , insisting that he was left with little choice . By remaining , he risked being accused either of becoming a ' backseat driver ' , or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was doing the decent thing . But after extensive inquiries among Cameron 's closest cronies and friends , another story has emerged : They suggest that the former prime minister has been crushed by the loss of power , and has simply not come to terms with his dramatic reversal of fortune . One close friend who has known Cameron for years says : ' I had the strong impression before the EU vote , which he was convinced he would win , that he would go much sooner than people thought , mainly for Sam 's sake . David Cameron waves as he leaves Number 10 after resigning as Prime Minister after losing the EU Referendum ' Hubristically , he wanted to be able to say he had walked away after winning three referendums ( Brexit , Scottish independence and the AV vote ) and two general elections , while setting things up for George Osborne as his preferred successor . So he wanted to go unexpectedly like Harold Wilson did , with people wanting more , while at the same time tearing up the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . ' This was the patrician Cameron , educated at Eton and Oxford , to whom everything had come so easily . Yet Brexit changed everything utterly . ' Quitting now as MP is like the little boy who says , " If I ca n't be captain I am taking the ball home " , says the friend . ' It is going to strike many as an act of selfishness . ' Pictures of a haunted-looking Cameron on holiday in Cornwall last month suggested a man shattered by the turn of events . They showed him sitting alongside two women whose faces displayed indifference at the barefoot man distractedly eating chips between them . Some even wondered if he was broken . Other pictures of him paddling in the sea over the summer showed he had begun to put on weight . Shock at the loss of the EU referendum in June , followed by being swiftly turfed out of Downing Street along with his family when the Tories decided on a coronation not an election for a successor , is said by friends @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a forlorn figure as he enjoyed fish and chips on a summer holiday in August Cameron , pictured , with his wife Samantha , appeared as if he had put on some weight when he was paddling in the sea on trip to Corsica with his family ' The transition from all-powerful PM to lowly MP has not gone well , ' says one .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes a situation where someone is 'turfed out of Downing Street,' but this does not involve a verb that fits the categories listed for V1, nor does it involve a causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate. The phrase 'turfed out of Downing Street' is more about physical removal rather than causing someone to move out of an activity or preventing them from doing something, which are key interpretations of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The plan was clear enough in David Cameron 's mind . He would stand down as an MP -- and Prime Minister -- in 2018 . Not only would he leave Downing Street with his reputation intact , he would buck the political trend by quitting ( a little earlier than he had promised ) but still as a winner , not a loser . Or so he believed when he was chatting to friends at a fireside supper at Chequers earlier this year -- long before the Brexit vote that detonated his career -- where guests included a British writer recently returned from a stint in New York . Pictured : David Cameron waves to photographers as he leaves Downing Street with his family after resigning as Prime Minister in July Cameron 's wife Samantha was grilling the writer 's companion about life in Manhattan and where the best districts were to live . ' The message from that evening was that after years of putting himself first , when the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was going to let Sam call the shots , ' says a friend . The idea seemed to be that when that time finally came in 2018 , Cameron would exit Downing Street in a blaze of glory , leaving the path clear for his Tory successor to fight the 2020 election . Only then would he concentrate on his memoirs while his wife , free from the scrutiny that had accompanied her throughout his years in office , could fulfil her dream of setting up her own fashion label . And yes , that might mean basing themselves for a stint in the US . How different and how unedifying the reality ! Only a few months after that cosy supper , and less than nine weeks after leaving No 10 , Cameron yesterday completed his flight from public office by abruptly quitting politics altogether . Political allies were quick to defend him , insisting that he was left with little choice . By remaining , he risked being accused either of becoming a ' backseat driver ' , or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was doing the decent thing . But after extensive inquiries among Cameron 's closest cronies and friends , another story has emerged : They suggest that the former prime minister has been crushed by the loss of power , and has simply not come to terms with his dramatic reversal of fortune . One close friend who has known Cameron for years says : ' I had the strong impression before the EU vote , which he was convinced he would win , that he would go much sooner than people thought , mainly for Sam 's sake . David Cameron waves as he leaves Number 10 after resigning as Prime Minister after losing the EU Referendum ' Hubristically , he wanted to be able to say he had walked away after winning three referendums ( Brexit , Scottish independence and the AV vote ) and two general elections , while setting things up for George Osborne as his preferred successor . So he wanted to go unexpectedly like Harold Wilson did , with people wanting more , while at the same time tearing up the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . ' This was the patrician Cameron , educated at Eton and Oxford , to whom everything had come so easily . Yet Brexit changed everything utterly . ' Quitting now as MP is like the little boy who says , " If I ca n't be captain I am taking the ball home " , says the friend . ' It is going to strike many as an act of selfishness . ' Pictures of a haunted-looking Cameron on holiday in Cornwall last month suggested a man shattered by the turn of events . They showed him sitting alongside two women whose faces displayed indifference at the barefoot man distractedly eating chips between them . Some even wondered if he was broken . Other pictures of him paddling in the sea over the summer showed he had begun to put on weight .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate structure. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' followed by a gerund phrase, which does not involve a causer and causee relationship or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

authority has issued advice to all councillors and has said they can opt out of having their addresses made public .
Council correspondence seen by the Daily Echo revealed the attack was motivated because of the councillor 's position . An email said : " A councillor had a paving slab thrown through the window of a house smashing the windows to a living room . " Fortunately no one was hurt but the perpetrator made it clear that the action was because of the councillor 's role . Whilst this email is in no way meant to cause alarm to anyone it was felt that you needed to be made aware that this type of incident had happened . " If you have any reason to be concerned then please let Member Services know and we shall try to assist where possible . " The incident is now being investigated by Hampshire police . The news has sent shockwaves through the council and comes as security surrounding politicians is already heightened . The councillor , who is not being identified , declined to comment on the attack . Labour MP @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on her way to a surgery in her constituency , and in July Labour MP Angela Eagle 's office was damaged by a brick .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate structure. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase, not involving a causer and causee relationship or the specific interpretations (movement/extraction or prevention) characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

authority has issued advice to all councillors and has said they can opt out of having their addresses made public .
Council correspondence seen by the Daily Echo revealed the attack was motivated because of the councillor 's position . An email said : " A councillor had a paving slab thrown through the window of a house smashing the windows to a living room . " Fortunately no one was hurt but the perpetrator made it clear that the action was because of the councillor 's role . Whilst this email is in no way meant to cause alarm to anyone it was felt that you needed to be made aware that this type of incident had happened . " If you have any reason to be concerned then please let Member Services know and we shall try to assist where possible . " The incident is now being investigated by Hampshire police .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'get out of travelling around the country' does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'travelling around the country' is a gerund phrase serving as the object of the preposition 'out of', and the verb 'get' does not fit the semantic classes of verbs typically used in the transitive out of -ing construction.

Joe Mahon has returned to our television screens with his latest UTV series of Lesser Spotted Journeys . It has been over 20 years since Joe , 65 , began his travels around Ulster and , now with Lesser Spotted Journeys , further afield . The Londonderry-born presenter says he still continues to get a great deal of satisfaction from making the Lesser Spotted series . " If I can bring back something of the sense of enjoyment that I genuinely get out of travelling around the country and visiting different places then I have done my job well , " he says . Joe likens Lesser Spotted to going on holidays and bringing back photographs to show friends and family . " It 's a bit like going away and bringing snaps and boring people with them ; but of course I hope I do n't bore anyone , " he laughs . " What I have found over the years is that you need to find out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you can tell people about it . " Every single place that we visit we spend a week filming there , but prior to that somebody from our team will have spent several weeks visiting the place , reading about it , talking to people and getting a real feeling for the area . ' ' Joe , a former teacher , acknowledges that even after 20 years of filming the Lesser Spotted series he is still learning . " The new series is a mixture of programmes shot around Ulster and then the rest are spread out fairly equally among the other provinces . " But when you do all the maths of the counties in each of the provinces , you quickly realise that each of the provinces have different numbers of counties , for example Connacht only has five while Leinster has 12 , so it 's not always easy to get a fair distribution . " It has certainly been an education for me filming the new series , I would have always holidayed in the west of Ireland when the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with Co Galway , Co Clare and Co Kerry to an extent , but really beyond that it is all so new to me . " Joe 's travels around Ireland , and especially those off the beaten track , remind him of when his family were younger . " We used to go for drives with the three youngsters in the back of the car . They used to hate me taking them anywhere , because I would n't have been content to go to such and such a place , but I would come across a wee road with grass growing up in the middle and I would take them up those roads and we 'd get lost . " But I have always had that inclination long before we started filming Lesser Spotted . " I always wanted to explore and I was always thinking about finding the perfect glen or the perfect lake or setting . " Joe does think that Ireland has become a much more accessible place in which to travel . " Recently we travelled down to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on the other side of the country it took us little or no time to get there because of the fantastic roads that we have now . " And in a way all the new roads have made travelling around Ireland so much easier nowadays compared to 10 or 20 years ago . " Joe continues : " But I do like to get off the beaten track and to get away off the road . I like to look for those quiet places and sometimes they can also be very lonely places . I remember being in north Co Mayo , and you could walk for days and not see a soul there . " But then you have other places which might be busy but just off the beaten track and I do n't think that those sort of places should n't be overlooked by Lesser Spotted Journeys as their history and character is every much as interesting as , say , an urban sprawl which is bustling with life . " He adds that while travelling the country finding the most interesting places @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ break and having a picnic in the countryside . " While we are filming we are living out of the back of a car . There are three cars going around the country . " There is nothing that I love more than stopping for a break on the road , putting a wee table cloth out and setting up a picnic . " It could be lashing with rain and blowing a gale , but that ( having a picnic ) just cheers you up and makes the day much brighter . " I have to say the rest of them may not be as keen and prefer to take shelter from the wind and rain , but I just love it . " Reflecting on 20 years of Lesser Spotted Joe says the real test of the success of what he does is that people welcome him back when he re-visits a place where he has filmed . " The real test is -- are you happy to go back to place that you did a programme without fearing that people will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Over 20 years we have built up a really good network of contacts and people who trust us and they generally recommend us to other people who we want to talk to ; that is an invaluable resource that network of people .

" These are usually small places which may not have a lot of resources , but what they are left with is a nice pictorial record of the visit which highlights the really beautiful aspects of their home .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'made careers out of rejecting', where 'rejecting' is part of a gerund phrase modifying 'careers', not indicating a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The NP object 'careers' does not function as a causee, and the construction does not induce the required interpretations.

in love ? You might want to start your answer by explaining Ursula Le Guin . I can only speak for one childhood -- and one adulthood -- spent reading Le Guin , but I 'd bet my last nickel there are thousands of us out there . Tolkien knew how to conquer Evil ; Beverly Cleary and Louise Fitzhugh put their finger on childhood woe and its embarrassments . But the nightly dreams of deep , deep blue water , of looking out from the crow 's nest of a battered clipper as it rounds a cliff , I owe to nobody but Le Guin . I can still close my eyes and count that ship 's sails . She owned me at age eight , on the overlit and understaffed second floor of the DC library ( Chevy Chase branch ) . Four decades and God knows how many rereadings later , she owns me still .
Read more If you think you have Le Guin pegged because you know young adult fantasy , think again . Like other protean , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Margaret Atwood , Doris Lessing , David Mitchell , Kazuo Ishiguro ) , Le Guin drops her reader into an uncanny double of our own world , a dream where somebody changed the names and shapes of everything and forgot to let you in on the secret . Le Guin 's peculiar gift , though , is to make the ordinary feel as important as the epic : mundane questions about who 's cutting firewood or doing the dishes share space with rune books and miscast spells . Her Earthsea has less in common with Narnia , Hogwarts , and Percy Jackson 's Camp Half-Blood than it does with medieval romances and Icelandic sagas , where dragons and death keep company with fishing yarns , goat-herding woes , and village quarrels . Perhaps what most sets Le Guin apart from her peers is the vivacity of her worlds , the way she makes readers accept a world simultaneously distinct from and entirely a part of life as it 's ordinarily lived . I 'm not talking so much about the vividness of a well-rendered video game as a curiously @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ both very far away and right here in your own bedroom . To be a Le Guin reader is to become accustomed to thinking on your feet , and to noticing that what you think has no guaranteed permanence : Several black stones eighteen or twenty feet high stuck up like huge fingers out of the earth . Once the eye saw them it kept returning to them . They stood there full of meaning , and yet there was no saying what they meant . There were nine of them . One stood straight , the others leaned more or less , two had fallen . They were crusted with gray and orange lichen as if splotched with paint , all but one , which was naked and black , with a dull gloss to it . It was smooth to the touch , but on the others , under the crust of lichen , vague carvings could be seen , or felt with the fingers -- shapes , signs . These nine stones were the Tombs of Atuan . Full of meaning , and yet @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up just about everything you come across in a Le Guin story . You believe in her novels as a world apart , yet also find yourself struggling to relate that world to your own life . A double exposure . Jetlagged and homesick in a tiny , stuffy attic bedroom , I started reading A Wizard of Earthsea to my daughter once : " The island of Gont , a single mountain that lifts its peak a mile above the storm-racked Northeast Sea , is a land famous for wizards . " We were at home away . I have previously praisedJean Stafford and Doris Lessing as writers who made careers out of rejecting proper places and suitably feminine roles : recalcitrants . Stafford hates the smothering effect of social norms ; she spends her career inventing alternatives to cocktail parties and the ( sexist and racist ) rules of the game . But she can only imagine her antisocial alternative as austere , internal , unpopulated , and impossible . Lessing takes resistance a step further : she denies that social rules bind us the way we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ impolitic vision of ways to stand apart from the flow of coercive empathy and misleading sympathy . If Stafford thinks to herself : " I 'm in Hell , " Lessing tells the rest of the world to go there . Le Guin 's struggle is a subtler one . She 's against the notion that a unitary plot exists , one that knits every life together . Why should I be expected to join forces with my fellow Americans down the block ? Her avowedly anarchist politics shape the way that her stories resist mobilization , and turn away from allowing anyone to stand in symbolically for the body politic . Le Guin 's most influential booster , Fredric Jameson , praises in her work an impulse toward " world reduction . " He means that her writing presents a viable real-world politics because in it our crazily complex world is stripped , by fantasy , to its bare essentials . To Jameson , both the gender-bending The Left Hand of Darkness and the battle between anarchist Annares and capitalist Urras in The Dispossessed are simplifying allegories @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and hence resistible . What Le Guin reduces she immediately builds up again . She fines things down precisely in order to show readers how even the simplest world is fractured and multifarious . Consider not only the subtitle of The Dispossessed : An Ambiguous Utopia but also the complications that attend its opening image : There was a wall . It did not look important . It was built of uncut rocks roughly mortared . An adult could look right over it , and even a child could climb it . Where it crossed the roadway , instead of having a gate it degenerated into mere geometry , a line , an idea of boundary . But the idea was real ... The wall shut in not only the landing field but also the ships that came down out of space , and the men that came on the ships , and the worlds they came from , and the rest of the universe . It enclosed the universe , leaving Anarres outside , free . Le Guin undoubtedly wants readers rooting for Anarres and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ freedom by shutting out the big bad universe is a slippery one , and Le Guin wants to be sure we miss none of that slipperiness : Ca n't you imagine an East German saying something like this about the Berlin Wall in 1974 ? Walls do n't close off possibilities in Le Guin . In fact , walls ( a crucial one divides and in a sense joins the living and the dead in the Earthsea books ) are what let possibilities multiply , giving readers the chance to stand on either side , or even to perch uncomfortably on top , looking both right and left . Another hint of Le Guin 's views about world-reduction shows up in her most famous short story . " The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas " is about a city whose universal joy and prosperity are paid for by a single jailed child 's pain ( as the philosophy professors who keep on assigning it will happily tell you , it makes Shirley Jackson 's The Lottery seem like a pleasant stroll through the park ) . That suffering @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to rest the whole world 's burdens on one set of shoulders : make the single stand in for the general and bad things happen . Individual character 's actions cascade , and at times they ramify ; when I act , others make choices triggered by that action , and on it goes . There can be solidarity , yes , arduous , complicated and worth fighting for ; to Le Guin , though , collective action is an oxymoron . At moments when crowds mobilize in obedience , or condense into a single all-defining order , an Omelas-like price always has to be paid . You might think of the remarkable run of novels Le Guin produced during Nixon 's reign as a bulwark against what his presidency wrought on the body politic . Under Nixon , nearly a century 's worth of movement toward economic equality in America slowed , stopped , and reversed . 1970 marks the inflection point on the curve that charts waxing income inequality in America . Meanwhile , Nixon 's illegal war overseas and dirty tricks at home laid the groundwork @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enemies both external and internal justifies its unsupervised surveillance over all citizens , all the time . Read more To that vision of mobilized might , Le Guin offered a subterranean alternative . President Nixon was the country 's master plotter ; Le Guin stood off to one side and instead told its stories . It 's not that we would have been better off with her as president , it 's that her books remind us how little of our world belongs to those who think they rule it . There is no more significant moment in a Le Guin novel than the instant when a character suddenly discovers the larger fabric into which her own thread is woven -- that others around her also have names , views , and quests all their own . It happens to Tenar early on in The Tombs of Atuan : There was something underneath Penthe 's words with which she did n't agree , something wholly new to her , frightening to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were , how differently they saw life . She felt as if she had looked up and suddenly seen a whole new planet hanging huge and populous right outside the window , an entirely strange world , one in which the gods did not matter . There 's sly humour in a line like this , coming from a science-fiction writer whose work it is to create those worlds . I thought of myself as a world , as the world ; all around me are other worlds , equally significant , looming equally large . Even when our actions suddenly make us part of a greater world , the everyday surrounds us , makes even what 's most memorable mostly ordinary . The wall that may free Anarres from the universe is also just a rough-and-tumble mass of gray stones ; and the hero " who talked with dragons , and held off earthquakes with his word ... lay asleep on the dirt , with a little thistle growing by his hand . " Stalin said that the poet should be the engineer of human souls . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and vivid as her writing is , we should think of it less as architecture than as roadmaking : readers are not settled down by her writing , they are moved by it . Even her most polished books are open-ended and deliberately ragged . The final line of The Left Hand of Darkness is a boy 's stammered question : " Will you tell us about other worlds out there among the stars -- the other kinds of men , the other lives ? " Le Guin sets readers adrift among those worlds : peripatetic but somehow at home . ***** John Plotz is professor of Victorian literature at Brandeis University and the author of The Crowd ( 2000 ) , Portable Property ( 2008 ) , and a young-adult novel , Time and the Tapestry : A William Morris Adventure ( 2014 ) .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes an attempt to create a goal from a situation where there is nothing, without involving a causee or a VP[-ing] predicate that would fit the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'out of nothing' does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate, and there is no indication of a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

clearly has a few more chapters to come , after this stunning Champions League premiere in Bruges .
Claudio Ranieri can not have envisaged such a stress-free evening as last season 's miracle men produced an emphatic statement in their first ever game at this rarefied level . Leicester had the swagger of seasoned European veterans and from the moment Riyad Mahrez curled in an exquisite free kick , to extend their lead in the first half , the latest entry into Foxes history never looked in doubt . It felt like a return to the verve and vigour of last season and any fears over damage from Saturday 's 4-1 humbling at Liverpool , their heaviest defeat in over 12 months , were dispelled with a clinical team performance that embarrassed their hosts . Leicester will face far more capable teams than Club Brugge in Group G , with the Belgian title holders completely blown away , but progression to the knock-out stages already seems a genuine possibility on this evidence . The odds of them winning the Champions League were tumbling last night , with one bookmaker pricing them at 40-1 . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Champions League music it charges the battery and makes you fight , " said Ranieri . Leicester City fans soak up the atmosphere in BrugesCredit : REX " It was very important to start our story with a victory and show the reaction after the Liverpool defeat . The Champions League is an experience for us and we hope to go through the group and play again . " There are another five games , we must stay calm . It 's not easy but we have started well and this will give us confidence . " Those travelling Leicester supporters in the corner of the Jan Breydelstadion will not be waking up from the dream any time soon and the celebrations will have continued long into the balmy night . They swarmed all over Bruge 's Grote Markt hours before kick-off , covering statues and other local landmarks with Leicester flags , determined to enjoy every minute of their brave new world . It has been 16 years since Leicester last experienced European football , but competing in the Champions League seemed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they were scrapping to avoid relegation . The comparisons with Nottingham Forest 's miracle men of the late 1970s have been overplayed , for Leicester would have to win the Champions League two years running to come anywhere near Brian Clough . But nights like these are a reminder of how far Leicester have come and the rollercoaster is showing no signs of shuddering to a halt just yet . Nerves were inevitable on their debut and they could have been behind after just three minutes . Jose Izquierdo was given far too much space to advance on goal , with Wes Morgan caught out in defence , and the Brugge attacker sent his shot wide of the bottom right as Kasper Schmeichel raced off his line . It proved a costly miss for the home team , for Leicester were ahead two minutes later and on the way to another famous night . Luis Hernandez 's huge throw was flicked on by Brugge midfielder Hans Vanaken , over goalkeeper Ludovic Butelle , and Marc Albrighton had a simple task to sweep home from a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ years ago as a free agent , Albrighton 's career path encapsulates Leicester 's own capricious journey . The winger was outstanding and one of many stand-out performers . Brugge were poor and it is no surprise their defence of the league title has been far from impressive so far . They have lost three of their six games and were underwhelming , struggling to breach the Leicester defence after wasting their early opportunity . A second Leicester goal was inevitable and it came with a devastating free kick from the PFA Player of the Year after 29 minutes . After Jamie Vardy was brought down outside the area by Timmy Simons -- who was fortunate not to be sent off -- Mahrez bent a wonderfully weighted shot into the far corner to kill off the contest . Confidence was growing and Butelle had to be alert to tip over an outrageous 35-yard volley from Danny Drinkwater late in the half . Jamie Vardy of Leicester City is fouled by Club Brugge goalkeeper Ludovic Butelle for a penaltyCredit : REX Vardy 's pace on the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ problems and the England international was involved for the third goal just after the hour . After another trademark dash into the penalty area he nicked the ball past Butelle , who hauled the striker down as he prepared to add the finishing touch . Mahrez added his second with a clinical finish and the chants of " we 're just too good for you " from Leicester were impossible to argue with . It was also a satisfying moment for Mahrez , who had missed from the spot against Swansea last month . " If he had n't scored I 'd crush his neck , " beamed Ranieri . Leicester could have added a fourth goal , with substitutes Leonardo Ulloa and Demarai Gray both coming close , but this was a warning that those 40-1 odds might be worth a flutter . Vormer comes steaming into a slide tackle on Hernandez as Leicester pass easily around them . He 's booked but could easily have seen red - studs up , at pace , straight through the back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ going for the ball ... hmmm. Ulloa slides in to try and win a 50/50 after a great pass from Albrighton but slides in and takes the goalkeeper after just touching the ball . The keeper dives in bravely and takes the hit , and the crowd are n't happy . Ulloa is booked . He was entitled to go for the challenge but should still probably have known he 'd hurt a human man jumping head first towards that . Leicester are defending really well and still creating chances . Musa goes round the keeper after more clever play from Gray but the forward was offside anyway . Brugge are being muscled out of almost every challenge too - a more strict referee might not take some of the 50/50 shoves that this one has . Demarai Gray 's first touch of the match is superb . A Brugge player slips in the box while trying to shoot , Fuchs collects and pings out to the right for Gray , who takes it first time at full @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with it , tries to confuse the defender by dropping the shoulder right and left , but scuffs his shot and sends it flying high and wide . This game 's over now . Musa has the ball on the right , spots Mahrez lurking and tries to find him with a clever ball around the back of the defence . The last man clears it away and that 's Mahrez 's last involvement . Demarai Gray comes on to replace him for the last 10 minutes or so . Albrighton sends a corner into the box and HUTH IS THERE ! ! ! ! Just wide . The ref blows for a foul anyway . This is a much better shape from Leicester than they 've had lately in the Premier League . Vardy leads the attack in an advanced role and the defence looks exactly how a four man defence should away from home . That 's your Jamie Vardy there , getting ready to receive contact from the goalkeeper to win a penalty . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up the other end , Musa manages to wriggle away from about four players - none of them put a proper tackle in - and Albrighton has time to whip a cross into the six yard box . The defenders scramble around it and manage to get away . The home team has been really poor tonight . Kasper Schmeichel makes his first save of the game , and does so by dropping to one knee and catching a poor shot from Izquierdo from outside the box . Slimani is in ! All of a sudden , the striker is played in behind the defence as Poulain tries a no-look pass to his keeper and makes a total mess of it . The keeper rushes out and manages to block Slimani out of an open goal but that could have been three . Leicester look comfortable here . Brugge do n't really seem to have anything about them at all and Ranieri 's team has time on the ball to pass it around and do n't seem at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 51 mins Engels still has n't been taken off ... but his arm looks like it 's basically hanging off . They 're rushing him down into the changing room now , presumably to try and put it back in its socket . Oh god that is gruesome . I am so happy I do n't have to see that . Blurgrghhghghghghghg. Brugge start on the attack and create a chance in the box by spreading play from wing to wing and whipping in a cross to the box . Hernandez clears and Desnwil , a centreback , heads wide from the corner . Slimani chases Engels to try and beat him to a pass back , and the striker shoves him . He goes flying straight towards the keeper ... but gets up and seems fine . Or is he ? Engels goes down again and is in pain - he might have dislocated his shoulder . That was a stupid push from Slimani , who is booked . Vardy gets a couple of chances to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ blocks him well down the left and his shot is parried by the keeper when he goes down the right . They 're struggling to deal with his pace . OOCHA ! Drinkwater almost scored the goal of the season there . Walking backwards he took the dropping ball on the volley and absolutely rattled it ! The shot dips just over the bar and the Brugge home fans boo with discontent and how easily their side is being broken down . That would have been such a good goal and out of absolutely nothing . Robbie Savage is gutted that the stadium is n't sold out tonight and is adamant that if this was Man Utd there would be a million people inside . Mahrez tries a shot from outside the box which takes a clear deflection but it 's a goal kick . Amartey does well to drop back and help out the defence . He passes , moves , passes , moves , turns the midfielder and keeps it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with a studs up flying challenge . There 's a bit of a battle going on there but Engels has been booked first . Izquierdo looks like Brugge 's biggest threat and has caused problems down the left wing .

Simons dives in to stop him , sends Vardy flying and it should be a red card ! Vardy was through ! Vardy tries to make a goal out of nothing , driving forward with the ball from the halfway line .

Vardy drops deep to try and link with Drinkwater but his touch is dreadful and it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and are trying to stretch the Leicester defence ... Albrighton is back to clear from a cross sent to the back post . Leicester are passing the ball around nicely here and look to have calmed down a bit . Fuchs gets a cross into the box , Amartey tries to make something of it but it 's cleared and Brugge break down the other end . Drinkwater is adjudged to have fouled someone 40 yards from goal but there was nothing really in it . It 's Champions League time !

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes an action where Vardy tries to make a goal out of nothing, which does not involve a causee or a VP[-ing] predicate that would induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

clearly has a few more chapters to come , after this stunning Champions League premiere in Bruges .
Claudio Ranieri can not have envisaged such a stress-free evening as last season 's miracle men produced an emphatic statement in their first ever game at this rarefied level . Leicester had the swagger of seasoned European veterans and from the moment Riyad Mahrez curled in an exquisite free kick , to extend their lead in the first half , the latest entry into Foxes history never looked in doubt . It felt like a return to the verve and vigour of last season and any fears over damage from Saturday 's 4-1 humbling at Liverpool , their heaviest defeat in over 12 months , were dispelled with a clinical team performance that embarrassed their hosts . Leicester will face far more capable teams than Club Brugge in Group G , with the Belgian title holders completely blown away , but progression to the knock-out stages already seems a genuine possibility on this evidence . The odds of them winning the Champions League were tumbling last night , with one bookmaker pricing them at 40-1 . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Champions League music it charges the battery and makes you fight , " said Ranieri . Leicester City fans soak up the atmosphere in BrugesCredit : REX " It was very important to start our story with a victory and show the reaction after the Liverpool defeat . The Champions League is an experience for us and we hope to go through the group and play again . " There are another five games , we must stay calm . It 's not easy but we have started well and this will give us confidence . " Those travelling Leicester supporters in the corner of the Jan Breydelstadion will not be waking up from the dream any time soon and the celebrations will have continued long into the balmy night . They swarmed all over Bruge 's Grote Markt hours before kick-off , covering statues and other local landmarks with Leicester flags , determined to enjoy every minute of their brave new world . It has been 16 years since Leicester last experienced European football , but competing in the Champions League seemed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they were scrapping to avoid relegation . The comparisons with Nottingham Forest 's miracle men of the late 1970s have been overplayed , for Leicester would have to win the Champions League two years running to come anywhere near Brian Clough . But nights like these are a reminder of how far Leicester have come and the rollercoaster is showing no signs of shuddering to a halt just yet . Nerves were inevitable on their debut and they could have been behind after just three minutes . Jose Izquierdo was given far too much space to advance on goal , with Wes Morgan caught out in defence , and the Brugge attacker sent his shot wide of the bottom right as Kasper Schmeichel raced off his line . It proved a costly miss for the home team , for Leicester were ahead two minutes later and on the way to another famous night . Luis Hernandez 's huge throw was flicked on by Brugge midfielder Hans Vanaken , over goalkeeper Ludovic Butelle , and Marc Albrighton had a simple task to sweep home from a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ years ago as a free agent , Albrighton 's career path encapsulates Leicester 's own capricious journey . The winger was outstanding and one of many stand-out performers . Brugge were poor and it is no surprise their defence of the league title has been far from impressive so far . They have lost three of their six games and were underwhelming , struggling to breach the Leicester defence after wasting their early opportunity . A second Leicester goal was inevitable and it came with a devastating free kick from the PFA Player of the Year after 29 minutes . After Jamie Vardy was brought down outside the area by Timmy Simons -- who was fortunate not to be sent off -- Mahrez bent a wonderfully weighted shot into the far corner to kill off the contest . Confidence was growing and Butelle had to be alert to tip over an outrageous 35-yard volley from Danny Drinkwater late in the half . Jamie Vardy of Leicester City is fouled by Club Brugge goalkeeper Ludovic Butelle for a penaltyCredit : REX Vardy 's pace on the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ problems and the England international was involved for the third goal just after the hour . After another trademark dash into the penalty area he nicked the ball past Butelle , who hauled the striker down as he prepared to add the finishing touch . Mahrez added his second with a clinical finish and the chants of " we 're just too good for you " from Leicester were impossible to argue with . It was also a satisfying moment for Mahrez , who had missed from the spot against Swansea last month . " If he had n't scored I 'd crush his neck , " beamed Ranieri . Leicester could have added a fourth goal , with substitutes Leonardo Ulloa and Demarai Gray both coming close , but this was a warning that those 40-1 odds might be worth a flutter . Vormer comes steaming into a slide tackle on Hernandez as Leicester pass easily around them . He 's booked but could easily have seen red - studs up , at pace , straight through the back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ going for the ball ... hmmm. Ulloa slides in to try and win a 50/50 after a great pass from Albrighton but slides in and takes the goalkeeper after just touching the ball . The keeper dives in bravely and takes the hit , and the crowd are n't happy . Ulloa is booked . He was entitled to go for the challenge but should still probably have known he 'd hurt a human man jumping head first towards that . Leicester are defending really well and still creating chances . Musa goes round the keeper after more clever play from Gray but the forward was offside anyway . Brugge are being muscled out of almost every challenge too - a more strict referee might not take some of the 50/50 shoves that this one has . Demarai Gray 's first touch of the match is superb . A Brugge player slips in the box while trying to shoot , Fuchs collects and pings out to the right for Gray , who takes it first time at full @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with it , tries to confuse the defender by dropping the shoulder right and left , but scuffs his shot and sends it flying high and wide . This game 's over now . Musa has the ball on the right , spots Mahrez lurking and tries to find him with a clever ball around the back of the defence . The last man clears it away and that 's Mahrez 's last involvement . Demarai Gray comes on to replace him for the last 10 minutes or so . Albrighton sends a corner into the box and HUTH IS THERE ! ! ! ! Just wide . The ref blows for a foul anyway . This is a much better shape from Leicester than they 've had lately in the Premier League . Vardy leads the attack in an advanced role and the defence looks exactly how a four man defence should away from home . That 's your Jamie Vardy there , getting ready to receive contact from the goalkeeper to win a penalty . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up the other end , Musa manages to wriggle away from about four players - none of them put a proper tackle in - and Albrighton has time to whip a cross into the six yard box . The defenders scramble around it and manage to get away . The home team has been really poor tonight . Kasper Schmeichel makes his first save of the game , and does so by dropping to one knee and catching a poor shot from Izquierdo from outside the box . Slimani is in ! All of a sudden , the striker is played in behind the defence as Poulain tries a no-look pass to his keeper and makes a total mess of it . The keeper rushes out and manages to block Slimani out of an open goal but that could have been three . Leicester look comfortable here . Brugge do n't really seem to have anything about them at all and Ranieri 's team has time on the ball to pass it around and do n't seem at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 51 mins Engels still has n't been taken off ... but his arm looks like it 's basically hanging off . They 're rushing him down into the changing room now , presumably to try and put it back in its socket . Oh god that is gruesome . I am so happy I do n't have to see that . Blurgrghhghghghghghg. Brugge start on the attack and create a chance in the box by spreading play from wing to wing and whipping in a cross to the box . Hernandez clears and Desnwil , a centreback , heads wide from the corner . Slimani chases Engels to try and beat him to a pass back , and the striker shoves him . He goes flying straight towards the keeper ... but gets up and seems fine . Or is he ? Engels goes down again and is in pain - he might have dislocated his shoulder . That was a stupid push from Slimani , who is booked . Vardy gets a couple of chances to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ blocks him well down the left and his shot is parried by the keeper when he goes down the right . They 're struggling to deal with his pace . OOCHA ! Drinkwater almost scored the goal of the season there . Walking backwards he took the dropping ball on the volley and absolutely rattled it ! The shot dips just over the bar and the Brugge home fans boo with discontent and how easily their side is being broken down . That would have been such a good goal and out of absolutely nothing . Robbie Savage is gutted that the stadium is n't sold out tonight and is adamant that if this was Man Utd there would be a million people inside . Mahrez tries a shot from outside the box which takes a clear deflection but it 's a goal kick . Amartey does well to drop back and help out the defence . He passes , moves , passes , moves , turns the midfielder and keeps it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with a studs up flying challenge . There 's a bit of a battle going on there but Engels has been booked first . Izquierdo looks like Brugge 's biggest threat and has caused problems down the left wing . He cuts inside to take a shot on his right foot but gets completely underneath it and boots it miles over the bar . Loose pass by Brugge near the box ! Vardy has spotted it and steams onto the ball ! Simons dives in to stop him , sends Vardy flying and it should be a red card ! Vardy was through ! Vardy tries to make a goal out of nothing , driving forward with the ball from the halfway line . He gets near the box , drops the shoulder and tries to go past the last man for pace but is easily halted in his tracks before he get onto the loose ball . Vardy drops deep to try and link with Drinkwater but his touch is dreadful and it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and are trying to stretch the Leicester defence ... Albrighton is back to clear from a cross sent to the back post . Leicester are passing the ball around nicely here and look to have calmed down a bit . Fuchs gets a cross into the box , Amartey tries to make something of it but it 's cleared and Brugge break down the other end . Drinkwater is adjudged to have fouled someone 40 yards from goal but there was nothing really in it . It 's Champions League time ! Both sets of teams walk out onto the pitch and Leicester 's players will hear the Champions League theme tune for the very first time . In real life . They 've definitely heard it before . Believe it or not , last season did actually happen , as surreal as it might still seem to many in the squad .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'taking' is V1, 'the time and hassle' is the NP object, and 'collecting a vehicle at the start of the hire and having to go back to our branch at the end of the journey' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also fits the prevention interpretation, as the service aims to prevent customers from experiencing the hassle of collecting and returning the vehicle. The verb 'taking' can be classified under 'By means of exerting force or pressure, sometimes understood metaphorically'. The NP subject 'Our Deliver & Collect service' is an inanimate force, which is acceptable. The NP object 'the time and hassle' is not a causee, but the construction allows for atypical NP objects as mentioned in the sixth property. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks a clear V1 and NP object that functions as a causee, and it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a situation where smart gadgets remove the bother from cake-making, which does not align with the transitive out of -ing construction.

You often hear people say that little has changed in Brighouse town centre . While some of the names may have changed and the ground floor windows have been modernised , it is the first floor where things have often stayed the same and where aspects of a town centre 's history can be found . Looking back to the 1970s , there have been changes in our town - some traders have come and some have moved on or retired . Once it was the Co-op that dominated our town centre where you could buy almost everything , and the benefit of the ' divvy ' ( dividend ) to look forward to was an obvious attraction for many families . But sadly the Co-op , which opened in Brighouse in 1856 , is no more , but many will have happy memories of it . Only this week I was a guest speaker at a residential home in York and met someone who was a retired butchery manager from the Brighouse Co-op . He could recall his days there and spoke of Walter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who I sure many readers will remember . Clifford Sutcliffe , who was the manager of the tailoring department , was one of the old school of tailors . He could take one look at you and instinctively knew your waist and inside leg size . Downstairs , which is now M&Co , you would see Jack Bray , who could always advise on the best shirt and on hand to advise on those stocking fillers that mothers , wives and girlfriends would buy for Christmas . With the arrival of the large supermarkets and other new names in the town centre , the Brighouse shopping experience is now much wider . With more specialist shops the town overall is better , with Commercial Street being its heart . There was a time when girls who were engaged or dating seriously ( that used to be called courting ) would often visit the town centre to buy something each week for what was referred to as her ' Bottom-Drawer ' . This would be things like bedding , towels , tea towels , cutlery and other similar @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you hear that ? Most would not have a clue what you were talking about . Most young couples had little to nothing back then when they moved into their new home , whether it was bought with a mortgage or a rented property . A bit of carpet from this relative , an oddment of three piece suite and maybe a small black and white TV - you did not have much but you were happy . The pleasure of saving up for something and its eventual arrival to your home was a great event . At some of the speaking engagements I have visited over the years , some of the members have often told me about the receipts their late husband has saved . Hundreds of them and each one relating to things they have bought during their long lives together . Each one a story in its own right , the very first washer from the Co-op , new bedroom furniture from Oliver Hinchliffe 's in Bradford Road . These faded receipts are just small pieces of paper but to the widow or widower @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . I remember buying our first carpet at Direct Carpet in Bethel Street more than forty years ago . Mr Michael Armitage , the , owner was the person who served us . He was in the wartime ATC with our dad , so when a little bit of credit was needed it was no problem . He had been in business so long he knew everyone 's dad , so there was no ducking or failing to pay-up . Then it was time to look for a TV - no thoughts on buying one in those days , it was a visit to DER , Granada or Radio Rentals to rent one . Most of used rented major electrical appliances back then . Earlier generations of ' newly- weds ' would have bought a real piece of furniture in the form of an Ambassador radio from Stillingfleet and Harper 's on Commercial Street . I wonder how many readers still have anything from their first home or wedding presents they had bought all those years ago ? In those days you had to save up which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up for it , or do without until you can afford it and always get the best you can afford . Good advice even today .

You often hear people say that little has changed in Brighouse town centre . While some of the names may have changed and the ground floor windows have been modernised , it is the first floor where things have often stayed the same and where aspects of a town centre 's history can be found . Looking back to the 1970s , there have been changes in our town - some traders have come and some have moved on or retired . Once it was the Co-op that dominated our town centre where you could buy almost everything , and the benefit of the ' divvy ' ( dividend ) to look forward to was an obvious attraction for many families . But sadly the Co-op , which opened in Brighouse in 1856 , is no more , but many will have happy memories of it . Only this week I was a guest speaker at a residential home in York and met someone who was a retired butchery manager from the Brighouse Co-op . He could recall his days there and spoke of Walter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who I sure many readers will remember . Clifford Sutcliffe , who was the manager of the tailoring department , was one of the old school of tailors . He could take one look at you and instinctively knew your waist and inside leg size . Downstairs , which is now M&Co , you would see Jack Bray , who could always advise on the best shirt and on hand to advise on those stocking fillers that mothers , wives and girlfriends would buy for Christmas . With the arrival of the large supermarkets and other new names in the town centre , the Brighouse shopping experience is now much wider . With more specialist shops the town overall is better , with Commercial Street being its heart . There was a time when girls who were engaged or dating seriously ( that used to be called courting ) would often visit the town centre to buy something each week for what was referred to as her ' Bottom-Drawer ' . This would be things like bedding , towels , tea towels , cutlery and other similar @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you hear that ? Most would not have a clue what you were talking about . Most young couples had little to nothing back then when they moved into their new home , whether it was bought with a mortgage or a rented property . A bit of carpet from this relative , an oddment of three piece suite and maybe a small black and white TV - you did not have much but you were happy . The pleasure of saving up for something and its eventual arrival to your home was a great event . At some of the speaking engagements I have visited over the years , some of the members have often told me about the receipts their late husband has saved . Hundreds of them and each one relating to things they have bought during their long lives together . Each one a story in its own right , the very first washer from the Co-op , new bedroom furniture from Oliver Hinchliffe 's in Bradford Road . These faded receipts are just small pieces of paper but to the widow or widower @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . I remember buying our first carpet at Direct Carpet in Bethel Street more than forty years ago . Mr Michael Armitage , the , owner was the person who served us . He was in the wartime ATC with our dad , so when a little bit of credit was needed it was no problem . He had been in business so long he knew everyone 's dad , so there was no ducking or failing to pay-up . Then it was time to look for a TV - no thoughts on buying one in those days , it was a visit to DER , Granada or Radio Rentals to rent one . Most of used rented major electrical appliances back then . Earlier generations of ' newly- weds ' would have bought a real piece of furniture in the form of an Ambassador radio from Stillingfleet and Harper 's on Commercial Street . I wonder how many readers still have anything from their first home or wedding presents they had bought all those years ago ? In those days you had to save up which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up for it , or do without until you can afford it and always get the best you can afford . Good advice even today .

win of season
Mark Cosgrove 's courageous century and a defiant rearguard action from Rob Sayer and Richard Jones earned Leicestershire a draw and denied Derbyshire a first championship win of the season in the Division Two match at Derby . The Leicestershire skipper defied the pain of a damaged left hand to score 110 but looked destined to finish on the losing side when his team slipped to 242 for 8 , chasing 347 , with 23 overs left . But Rob Sayer and Richard Jones , who batted with a runner , denied Derbyshire who used seven bowlers to steer Leicestershire to 301 for 8 . Any prospect of a Leicestershire victory looked remote when Palladino struck twice in the first three overs of a day which began with the ground shrouded in mist with the floodlights on . Angus Robson 's dismal run continued when he was caught behind down the legside without scoring for the second time in the game which was his third consecutive duck and his fifth in 11 innings . Harry Dearden was promoted to number three but scored only two before he edged @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ catch but that was Derbyshire 's last success until eight overs after lunch . Although Cosgrove was in considerable discomfort and took his left hand off the bat handle almost every ball , he was playing not only with great courage but also authority to put Leicestershire back in the contest . With Horton also looking secure , Derbyshire were in danger of seeing the game slip away from them but Palladino made the breakthrough when he beat the opener 's forward defensive push to have him lbw . Horton was clearly unhappy with the decision but Neil Dexter joined Cosgrove to bat through the rest of the afternoon and at tea , another 149 were needed from 38 overs . It was Palladino who revived Derbyshire again when he angled one back into Dexter who was lbw for 26 but the key wicket was Cosgrove who completed a memorable hundred , his fifth of the season , when he forced Callum Parkinson through the covers for his 15th four . He survived a rapid chance to Madsen at slip on 105 but made only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and showed his dismay by staying slumped over at the crease for several seconds before departing with an angry swish of his bat . Eckersley 's reaction after he was given out caught behind down the legside crossed from disappointment to dissent and , following the departures of Mark Pettini and Clint McKay , left Leicestershire with only survival to play for . They achieved that thanks to Sayer and Jones who was dropped off his own bowling by Parkinson with eight overs left which proved to be Derbyshire 's last chance . Derbyshire captain Billy Godleman said : " I really thoroughly enjoyed the four days of cricket . Obviously we are really disdappointed we did n't quite get over the line but I 'm extemely proud of the way the guys fought really hard this week . " A couple of times today when it looked like we did n't have a chance of winning we came back and that 's really positive signs for the future . " The real pleasing thing is we 've had some major contributions in the game @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ incredibly well in the second innings and Tony ( Palladino ) really led the attack as he has done all year .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('he') + V1 ('was squeezed') + NP object ('out of boxing') + VP2[-ing] predicate ('for more than three years in the prime of his career because of it'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the subject was prevented from continuing his boxing career due to his refusal to fight in the Vietnam War. The verb 'squeezed' can be categorized under 'By means of exerting force or pressure, sometimes understood metaphorically', which is one of the classifications for verbs in this construction. The NP object 'boxing' is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, and the sentence can be paraphrased to fit the prevention interpretation, indicating it is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A few nights ... the University of Florida law professor Katheryn Russell-Brown watched four commentators on ESPN debate Colin Kaepernick 's refusal to stand for the United States national anthem . For several minutes the men argued about whether the San Francisco 49ers quarterback was right in using the anthem to shed a light on racial inequities in their country . They spoke of soldiers away at war , veterans who died and the meaning of the US constitution . The debate raged until Russell-Brown finally realised the one thing they had not discussed were the issues about which Kaepernick is protesting . Doherty High School football player Michael Oppong was one of many to join Kaepernick in protest . Photograph : Steve Lanava/AP Three weeks have passed since Kaepernick first sat through the anthem before a Niners pre-season game and the national debate is more about his choice of protest than the issues it raised . Every day brings a fresh batch of stories about who is supporting Kaepernick by kneeling or sitting through the anthem and then each of those expressions of solidarity is washed through its own news cycle . There seems almost more discussion about the former @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ some mythical duty as backup quarterback to be silent on all matters than there is about police shootings . Is this really what Kaepernick had in mind when he said : " I 'm going to stand with the people that are being oppressed . To me this is something that has to change . When there 's significant change and I feel that flag represents what it 's supposed to represent -- this country representing people the way that it 's supposed to . " Mark Anthony Neal , a professor of African and African-American studies at Duke , said : " I would argue that it 's by Kaepernick 's design . The flag piece is a Trojan horse . The mainstream media never really has interest in these issues until it becomes a spectacle . " By shocking people with his anthem protest Kaepernick was getting everybody 's attention , forcing people to confront the uncomfortable issues that many people have either ignored or never understood . The issue now , is how can Kaepernick and other athletes continue to push that conversation ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and dissenters or can there be a new level of athlete activism ? Over the years Neal has had many black athletes in his classes at Duke and he is always struck by how eloquent and thoughtful they are about race in their private work and also how reluctant they are to share those ideas in class . He senses that they have been conditioned through sports to think this way , trained by their coaches to shy away from any expressions that might detract from their athletic mission . But he also senses a new athlete activism , one started last fall when the University of Missouri football team struck in support of African-American students trying to change the university 's culture . The success Missouri 's players had in ousting the school 's president has shown other athletes the power of their voices . Read more In addition to the Missouri protest athletes have been emboldened by basketball players like LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony , whose comment for the Guardian called on players @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Muhammad Ali 's death this summer awakened an awareness in many athletes . Until he died a lot of them did not know he refused to fight in the Vietnam War and was squeezed out of boxing for more than three years in the prime of his career because of it . Hearing of how he stood up to racial oppression opened their eyes . " Many of them have started to ask , how will I be judged years from now ? " Neal said . Things were different in the years after Ali first spoke about race . Black athletes were emboldened to protest in those days and often did . The former NBA star Marques Johnson , who now Milwaukee Bucks games on television , remembers that his college coach at UCLA , John Wooden , had the team stay in the locker room for the national anthem because he knew most of the players would not stand for the song . " We were aware of the anthem author Francis Scott Key being a racist , " Johnson said . " We knew about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the British Army so they could be free . I think we were aware of all of that . " But something happened in the following years . The players who were moved to protest also saw how wealthy NBA stars were becoming . They noticed how Julius Erving , better known as Dr J , was celebrated for his clean-cut , corporate image and they wanted to be more like him . Their zeal for protest waned . Speaking out became a sin . Once , in the early 1980s , Johnson had become so tired of hearing the media complain that the NBA was losing popularity because it did not have enough white stars , he bought a Halloween mask of a white man that he was going to wear during warm-ups before a game . Eventually he lost his nerve . He worried that it would affect his contract negotiations . Now he wonders if the current athletes have become so wealthy they feel empowered to speak out : Kaepernick , he notes , is well into a contract that guarantees him $60m . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ali in the wake of the boxer 's death . Photograph : Anonymous/AP " When you have that kind of financial clout behind you those are some pretty good chips to fall back on , " he said . " But a part of that is the more financially comfortable you are means you have the means to take a stand and address some social ills . " Read more What 's most alarming is that many of the same voices who extolled Ali on his death in June are Kaepernick 's most strident critics . The uncomfortable truth is Ali 's three-decade journey from White America 's most hated man to its most beloved coincided with the decline of his health . Only when he was infirm and ravaged by disease -- when he was no longer the threat to order that he was as the handsome and virile icon of unapologetic blackness and safely removed from the present was he embraced by broader society . Martin Luther King wrote @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not radicals or extremists who represented the greatest threat in the fight for justice but those whose pleas for order -- like those angrier at Kaepernick 's actions than what it signifies -- derailed the struggle . " I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro 's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen 's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner , " he wrote , " but the white moderate who is more devoted to ' order ' than to justice ; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice ; who constantly says ' I agree with you in the goal you seek but I ca n't agree with your methods of direct action ' ; who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man 's freedom ; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a ' more convenient season ' . " Never have those words rung truer as the movement launched @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mountaintop seemed further from reach . But if enough athletes continue to draw attention to the racial iniquities present in every strata in American life , they can not be silenced forever . |

Canon Pat Browne ... the following Homily at the Mass of Thanksgiving for the Canonisation of Mother Teresa at Westminster Cathedral on Friday , 16th September 2016 . The full text follows : What is a saint ? It 's a question I 've often asked myself . As a child I found the ones I read about attractive . These heroes of our faith . David in the Old Testament confronting the giant Goliath . Peter in the New Testament losing his courage , finding it again through the patience and mercy Jesus showed him and leading the church into the future . Ignatius of Loyola the soldier who formed a new army for Christ ... the Jesuits . Dominic Savio innocent and pure . Damien of Molokai who ministered to the lepers till he caught leprosy himself and died from it . I so admired them . I wanted to be like them . But they were all so perfect . Very far from my experience of myself . But then I MET a saint . Teresa of Calcutta . She came into my life on and off about five times over the space of many years . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hope for myself and my future . To be the Saint God has called us all to be . You see I had made the mistake of thinking that the life of saints is always perfect . Yes they may have material and social struggles with the people among whom they live but inwardly they always got it right , felt close to God , had no doubts , and were at peace , or so I thought ! I first met Mother Teresa in Dublin when I was a seminarian and not again till the 1980s . In 1987 she came to London to find a house in the city centre from which she could reach out to the homeless and the poor . I was Cardinal Hume 's Private Secretary at the time . It was a Sunday evening . The Dalai Lama had been to visit that afternoon and now the Cardinal and I were settling down to a bit of supper on our laps in front of the television .. The doorbell went and when I answered through the intercom a man 's voice said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ see the Cardinal . " Oh yea " , I thought , " Who is it this time " - and made my way down to the door . But there she was . She told us why she was in London and invited the Cardinal and myself to join her and her sisters the following night in a soup run in and around round Lincoln 's Inn Fields . We did . And as Mother and I walked down a street at the back of the Savoy Hotel we came across a homeless man sitting on the ground propped against the hotel wall reading a book . He looked up as we approached . Looked at the book , then looked at Mother . He was reading Malcolm Muggeridge 's book , Something Beautiful for God - a book about Mother Teresa of Calcutta . His face was a joy to see . He thought he was seeing a vision . The next morning one of Mother 's sisters rang saying Mother was going that evening to Downing St to meet the Prime Minister Mrs Thatcher and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Cardinal Hume live that one down .

Mother Teresa had come to talk to the prime minister about the numbers sleeping in cardboard coffins round our city at the time - and about abortion . It was from that visit the phrase cardboard coffins - those sleeping outdoors in the cold - was coined . On the issue of abortion I can still see Mother put her two hands together , look into the face of Mrs Thatcher and implore her : " if there are people here who do not want the babies , then give them to me .

I told her I was starting as parish priest in Kentish town when I got back to London . She promised me she would visit me there the next time she came to the UK . She kept her promise and came to Kentish Town in 1994 . I felt very close to her . She had an innocence and a simplicity about her that cut through all the nonsense that is spoken .

But she let them come so that they could share in the lives of the poor and thank the poor for the privilege of serving them . Her words , not mine . Not long after she died , we learned a lot about her spiritual life . This woman who in the words of the prophet Jeremiah had been seduced by God and was madly in love with him , for a long time felt discarded , abandoned and ignored by him .

But two minutes later Ards were back in business when Joe McKinney scampered through on the right to fire across Stefan McCusker and inside the far post . Both sides threatened early in the second half with Mayse fizzing inches wide before Mallards keeper Stefan McCusker denied Keke at the other end . McCusker 's opposite number Hogg then gathered a daisy-cutter from Lafferty before Mayse blazed over after being released by Adam Lecky .

On 35 minutes , Ryan Morris , a 17th minute replacement for the injured Steve Feeney , chested down a headed clearance and from all of 25 yards volleyed into the roof of Hogg 's net . But two minutes later Ards were back in business when Joe McKinney scampered through on the right to fire across Stefan McCusker and inside the far post . Both sides threatened early in the second half with Mayse fizzing inches wide before Mallards keeper Stefan McCusker denied Keke at the other end . McCusker 's opposite number Hogg then gathered a daisy-cutter from Lafferty before Mayse blazed over after being released by Adam Lecky . Ards pressed late on but much to the disappointment of their manager Niall Currie could n't find an equaliser .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', which is a different construction where 'opt out of' is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund, not the transitive out of -ing construction as defined.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'crashed out of qualifying' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes an event where the subject (Hamilton) exited the qualifying session due to crashing, which is not the same as the transitive out of -ing construction.

hampered with problems in practice at the picturesque circuit , where the action takes place late at night
The Finn 's team-mate Sebastian Vettel will start last after a technical problem as Jenson Button starts 13th . Rosberg 's was a remarkable performance - he has surely never been as superior to Hamilton when both have been gunning for pole . For his part , Hamilton has looked out of sorts all weekend , missing half of the second practice session on Friday because of a technical problem and struggling to get a good lap in before that . That 's Rosberg 's first pole in Singapore , level with Felipe Massa , here in 2008 - who is about to leave the pits too early and rip the refuelling hose form his Ferrari . Source : Forix He failed again to do a qualifying simulation lap in Saturday 's final practice session , locking his brakes heavily and going straight on at Turn Seven . First qualifying went better for Hamilton - he was fourth quickest , 0.15secs quicker than Rosberg but the German was faster @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the top 10 shoot-out and then he made a mistake on the entry to Turn One on his final lap . It was in some ways reminiscent of Hamilton 's weekend at the European Grand Prix in Baku in June , when he crashed out of qualifying and lined up 10th . However , it later emerged that his car may have had a problem - Mercedes ' data was showing it was producing less aerodynamic downforce than Rosberg 's , which would explain the lack of grip . At least this time he starts close to the front , but unless Rosberg makes a poor start - a Mercedes weakness at times this season - Hamilton will find it difficult to beat his team-mate , whom he leads by two points in the championship . Hamilton made a bad start in his last race - the Italian Grand Prix . He will need to avoid a shaky start in Singapore ... " Definitely happy with that one , " said Rosberg . " For sure one of my top three laps ever . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up against Red Bull so I knew I had to pull one out of the bag . " Hamilton said : " It has not been my weekend so far . Not many good laps . Just not been able to string them together . " Ricciardo 's superb performance - 0.531secs behind Rosberg and 0.213secs quicker than Verstappen - gives him a strong chance to fight for victory , after he pipped Hamilton with his last lap of the session . Red Bull had better pace on the race simulation practice runs on Friday than Mercedes , and Ricciardo and Verstappen will start the race on the super-soft tyre rather than the ultra-soft Mercedes will use . It remains to be seen which strategy is advantageous - Red Bull will be able to do a longer first stint , but Mercedes then have two sets of softs available for remainder of the race while Red Bull only have one . Hamilton at least did better than Vettel , who hit trouble @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ radioed the team to say he felt something wrong at the front of the car but was told to stay out and try to do a lap . But he was not able to do a time quick enough to get him through into second qualifying and he said over the radio : " This is stupid , we are losing time . " Vettel has questioned his team several times this season - and been right to The team said that the problem was a broken rear anti-roll bar . Vettel added : " There was no time to fix it . I wanted to come in but we decided to stay out . " The top 10 was completed by the impressive Toro Rossos of Carlos Sainz and Daniil Kvyat , with McLaren 's Fernando Alonso in ninth , splitting the Force Indias of Nico Hulkenberg and Sergio Perez . However , race stewards penalised Perez a total of eight grid positions for offences committed while yellow caution flags were out during second qualifying . He was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a further five for not slowing sufficiently for the flags , dropping him to 18th on the grid . Perez was also given three penalty points on his licence . The yellow flags were out after a crash by McLaren driver Jenson Button . The 2009 world champion had looked stronger in qualifying after struggling throughout practice but qualified 13th after hitting the wall in Turn 14 and breaking a wheel on his final lap . Media playback is not supported on this device Sergio Perez : ' I get mistaken for Tom Cruise ' " I tapped the wall with the left rear , " said Button , who may be taking part in Singapore for the last time after deciding not to drive in 2017 , with no certainty about his future beyond that . " I did n't think I hit it that hard but it broke the wheel and I got a puncture . " It has been a tough weekend for me . I had n't found the pace in the car and Fernando had . Then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you go . " Jolyon Palmer will line up 19th in his Renault , two places and 0.135secs behind team-mate Kevin Magnussen. |

We were told to say ' Thank you your Majesty ' when the Queen gave us the Maundy Money and I watched as she came along the line and most people were completely overawed and could barely mumble ' Thank you ' , but I thought ' Hm , the WI does it properly ' so when I received the Maundy Money I said ' Thank you your Majesty ' and the Queen stopped , looked me in the eye for a couple of seconds and then bowed her head to me and moved on .

I took my two daughters to York Minster and it was the most memorable service and it was a great thrill to meet the Queen . We were told to say ' Thank you your Majesty ' when the Queen gave us the Maundy Money and I watched as she came along the line and most people were completely overawed and could barely mumble ' Thank you ' , but I thought ' Hm , the WI does it properly ' so when I received the Maundy Money I said ' Thank you your Majesty ' and the Queen stopped , looked me in the eye for a couple of seconds and then bowed her head to me and moved on . I think she is marvellous and has done a fantastic job for the country over many years .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'runs out of complicating factors' involves an intransitive verb 'runs' with no NP object and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, 'complicating factors' is an NP complement of the complex preposition 'out of', not a VP[-ing] predicate.

An exclamation mark ... the end of any title can often betray a sort of are-we-having-fun-yet ? eagerness ; two of them , as in Richard Linklater 's Everybody Wants Some ! ! ( eOne , 15 ) , suggest positively deranged levels of pep . Yet even as it surfs the antic party scene of American college life circa 1980 , there 's a sauntering , Zen-infused calm to the film that feels almost melancholic . Many have deemed it a pure nostalgia exercise , a film that treats its gaggle of pretty , randy fratboys and their retrograde social and sexual beliefs with uncritical , honey-dipped affection . Yet the film is more complicated : it may be rooted in one highly specific era , as opposed to the time-lapse exercises of Boyhood and the Before Sunrise trilogy , but it extends Linklater 's fascination with people as inchoate beings . The camera participates in its characters ' short-sighted revelry while exposing many of the personal stumbling blocks that could betray them when they 're no longer princes of the universe -- or at least of the baseball diamond . Linklater also looks upon the puppyish , peach-skinned beauty of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ jaunt of the 80s would have done : a celebratory gaze , in one sense , but laced with awareness that this too shall pass . In the course of this alternately lovely and leery romp , at least one of those exclamation points curls into a question mark . No punctuation is aggressive enough for Green Room ( Altitude , 18 ) , a seismically nasty exercise in bloody backwoods horror that confirms all the ruthless technical strengths director Jeremy Saulnier demonstrated in Blue Ruin -- with , sadly , none of that film 's human texture . Pitting punk rockers against neo-Nazis in a confined , effortfully grisly fight to the death , it works up some efficient cat-and-mouse tension upfront yet runs out of complicating factors -- for its characters and narrative alike -- even before the halfway mark . Among the year 's most ambiguously compelling documentaries , Author : The JT Leroy Story ( Dogwoof , 15 ) digs under the hoax of Leroy , the nonexistent West Virginia hustler-novelist who briefly became the toast of the New York literary scene . Affording @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ chance to tell her side of this " myth " , Jeff Feuerzeig 's film is a feast of bizarre anecdotal detail -- yet never fully questions its own questionability in taking the word of a famously unreliable narrator . Approach with fascination and caution in equal measure . Neither fascinating nor especially dangerous -- despite the seemingly risky promise of an Afghanistan conflict comedy -- Whiskey Tango Foxtrot ( Paramount , 15 ) is a jaunty diversion , starring a game Tina Fey as a green war correspondent plunged into the maelstrom of Kabul . There 's a pleasingly acidic edge to some of the fish-out-of-water antics that ensue , but the film treads conservatively around any hot points of political or cultural interest . Pair it up with A Hologram for the King ( Icon , 12 ) for a curious double bill of American civilians dazed and confused in the Middle East : starring Tom Hanks as a beaten-down businessman attempting to secure a major contract in Saudi Arabia , Tom Tykwer 's adaptation of Dave Eggers 's novel retains a sense of the author 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ questions mostly lie decoratively on the surface . Natalia Tena and David Verdaguer in the ' rather special ' 10,000 Km . Photograph : Everett/Rex/Shutterstock On the streaming-only front , Mubi.com once more comes to the rescue of a fine film overlooked by UK distributors . Spanish director Carlos Marques-Marcet 's tender , ruefully romantic debut 10,000 Kmmust rank among the most poignant painfully observed depictions of that most increasingly prevalent of modern relationship dramas : long-distance dating . Artfully volleying viewers between Los Angeles and Barcelona , as it charts how a migrant artist and her left-behind boyfriend sustain their compromised intimacy , the film illustrates and negotiates the space between them with novel , non-gimmicky use of webcams and phone screens . It 's altogether rather special : while dealing with eternal human desires , it 's the rare film that feels wholly 21st century in its construction . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'trying to screw the truth out of lying, evasive politicians' involves the verb 'screw' followed by 'the truth out of lying', which does not align with the required construction. Additionally, the interpretation does not clearly convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as defined for the transitive out of -ing construction.

They are the leading lights of a new anti-establishment : from Take Back the City activists to Students Against TTIP , and from low-wage campaigners to Momentum supporters , meet the energised young people fighting for a different kind of politics I 've heard a lot about Momentum and read a lot about Momentum and seen images of the huge Momentum rallies that have taken place around the country by the time I call Momentum 's offices and talk to someone called Joe . I 'm treading carefully because I 'm aware that , in certain quarters , I am what is called " the MSM " , also known as " the mainstream media " , and therefore , depending on who you talk to , at best , hopelessly biased ; at worst , part of a hostile rightwing anti-Corbyn conspiracy . And in the summer of 2016 , to write the words " Jeremy " and " Corbyn " sequentially in the MSM is to set a figurative match to a figurative tank of petrol and just hope it does n't take your eyebrows off . It @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ most contentious leadership election in the party 's history and on the same weekend that the new leader is announced , in the same city where the Labour party conference is being held -- Liverpool -- Momentum , the party-within-a-party set up to support Jeremy Corbyn after his successful leadership bid last year , has organised its own conference . It 's called The World Transformed , Joe explains , because its main agenda is to change the world . Over four days , more than 100 speakers will take the stage in a series of talks , workshops and debates : a roll call of people who , depending on who you talk to , are the emerging stars of a newly empowered radical anti-establishment or provocateurs attempting to hijack the party from within . My plan is to profile some of the key figures , to find out who they are , where they 've come from and what motivates them , but when I chat to Joe , the press officer for the conference , he starts trying to spin the list I 've come @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to do , of course , being hardened political hacks who after a lifetime of trying to screw the truth out of lying , evasive politicians , move over to the other side and lie and evade to other journalists on the politicians ' behalf . Except Joe has n't come up via the normal route . What did you do before you worked for Momentum , I ask him . " I do n't work for Momentum , " he says . " I 'm a volunteer . " He 's not a hardened political hack , it turns out , he 's a 24-year-old student called Joe Todd and is one of a small group of people who have organised the whole thing , off their own bat , unpaid . He 's doing a master 's at Goldsmiths , " but I 'm not sure I 'll go back " . Why not ? " Because politics is just too exciting at the moment . " A few days later , I meet up with him and two of his fellow organisers , Natasha Josette @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Momentum in south London and Josette and Hoskin , both single mothers , are from Stroud Momentum in Gloucestershire and , together , they talk enthusiastically about the event . The idea , Todd says , " is to take all these grassroots groups , things like the Hillsborough Justice Campaign and Disabled People Against Cuts and position them as part of a broader movement . All of these local campaigns have been going on but now they 're part of something so much bigger . " " I was part of local community groups before , " says Josette . " But they never had that same excitement . Then Momentum happened . " Then Momentum happened . Suddenly and dramatically , and as far as the Labour party is concerned , fatefully , last October . It 's not even a year old yet and it 's already gathered more than 17,000 paying members and seen 150 groups spring up around the country . And though it emerged from the campaign to elect Jeremy Corbyn as leader last summer , Todd insists " it 's a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . And yet , he claims , it 's been hopelessly misunderstood and misconstrued by the press , " Corbynista " being used against them as a term of abuse . " Essentially , it 's ' look at these stupid , young , naive people ' . But we 're not naive at all . We 're just responding to the situation we find ourselves in . I 'm relatively privileged yet I still live a really precarious existence , spending more than 70% of my income on rent . What do I want in this situation ? I want change . And that 's what Jeremy and Momentum represent . " There will be change , that much is clear . Though it remains to be seen whether it 's the kind of change that will involve Labour recovering from the Tories ' 14-point lead in the latest ICM/Guardian poll , pulling its fractured MPs together and barnstorming the next general election to a great socialist victory , or , if it 's the other kind , where the party continues to tear itself apart from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a bright Monday morning , I meet the journalist Owen Jones , who looks depressed and tired . When I mention something about young people , he points out : " I 'm 32 . I know I look like a 12-year-old but the last two months has aged me . " Owen Jones : author and journalist'Labour is facing a potential existential crisis . People have a sense of being at war . But if this becomes an attempt by one side to conquer another , then the Labour party could just disappear as a political force . People would be fighting over who gets the ownership of the rubble . ' Photograph : Antonio Olmos for the Observer What in particular ? " All of it ? Obviously , what 's happening within Labour is pretty depressing . I 'm sure the Tories have found the whole thing utterly hilarious . " Jones became a key Corbyn ally when he made his bid for power last summer . He was there on countless stages , campaigning for him , acting as his warm-up man @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ before the man himself strode out to his followers . " Yes , it 's partly that . And it 's partly people ... what I find frustrating is that with , say , Ukip , political analysts and commentators will put a lot of effort into understanding why people support Ukip , what makes them tick , what are their grievances . Whereas with Corbyn supporters , what I think is fascinating is the lack of curiosity . " You get people like the FT 's Janan Ganesh who tweeted and later deleted : ' All this stuff about Corbyn and this so-called movement . The truth is they 're just as thick as pig shit . ' That 's the level of serious attention that this movement is getting . " What 's remarkable , reading his book , is how dated it feels . In just two years , the political landscape of Britain has changed beyond recognition . And while the establishment that he talks about is still there , what we seem to be seeing is a new anti-establishment rising up to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Yes , I think , obviously there 's a movement which is trying to offer itself as a counterweight to the dominant , ruling elite of this country and the concentration of wealth and power in the hands of very small groups of people . I think it 's an inspiring , amazing development that so many people have joined the Labour party ; it 's now the biggest political party in Europe . Who would have thought that would have happened in this age ? Two years ago we were talking about how the political parties were over . But the challenge now is to communicate this to the rest of the country . " There is a shift that has taken place . But it needs to be harnessed properly It 's this that has been preoccupying him . Because , in many ways , he is the insider-outsider . He 's never been a Corbyn spokesman , though he has acted as a Corbyn translator , an explainer of the message to the outside world . But in July , he wrote an article broadly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Questions all Jeremy Corbyn supporters need to answer " , suggesting that Corbyn may not be able to lead the country to victory without first addressing certain issues -- such as , say , coming up with a strategy for persuading people to vote for him -- and has been taking flak ever since . " It 's very easy to go to rallies and think , wow ! But most people do n't go to rallies , they 're not on Twitter , and if there was a snap election this October , Labour could be facing its worst defeat since 1930 , no question . People have to realise that the polling is not some fabrication by a rightwing conspiracy . " Jones is both delivering his speeches to huge crowds and genuinely fearful about where the party is heading . " If I thought five years ago that I 'd be at the Reading festival talking about politics on a Sunday morning to thousands of young people as I was yesterday ... I mean , things have changed . There is a shift that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ properly because the danger is they 'll be let down if it goes wrong . Labour is facing a very real , potential existential crisis . " There is a sense of being at war and you just have to pick a side and suppress any qualms . But if this becomes an attempt by one side to conquer another , then the Labour party could disappear as a political force . People will be fighting over who gets the ownership of the rubble . " What 's clear is that a lot of what is going on has nothing to do with Corbyn . He 's a unifying principle , a catalyst , but those such as Amina Gichinga , an activist from east London who stood for the London Assembly in an attempt to " reclaim the city for the people who live here " , was doing what she was doing long before Jeremy Corbyn emerged on the scene . Gichinga 's organisation , Take Back the City , is trying to find ways of " doing democracy where you can participate en masse " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Spain , where Ada Colau , a housing campaigner , became the mayor of Barcelona . For her , the Corbyn moment , Momentum , The World Transformed , are all about having " a space , finally , for people to make their voices heard " . And , she hopes , the start of a " new , pluralistic kind of politics " . She studied international politics at Goldsmiths , but it was doing work experience at the House of Commons that turned her off Westminster . " All these people were getting pissed at lunchtimes , do you know what I mean ? I 'd see MPs out on the river terrace and I just thought , You guys live in a bubble . You do n't know who you 're working for any more . " Emma Rees : ex-primary school teacher turned Momentum national organiser'If parliament was working and everyone had a good standard of living , it would n't need to change . But we ca n't have this separation between that circus and everyday life . Change will only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an overnight project . ' Photograph : Antonio Olmos for the Observer Gichinga is one of dozens of activists who are being drawn under the Momentum umbrella . Another , Zita Holbourne of Black Activists Rising Against Cuts , tells me that the current moment " feels like a turning point " . She 's a veteran of the trade union movement who 's been reanimated by Corbyn 's ascendancy and believes that " the Labour party could be reclaimed for the people " . Like many of those I talk to , she does n't worry about how Corbyn will win over Tory votes . She believes increasing voter turnout will be enough . " There 's thousands of new people coming out , of all ages . It 's engaging people who 've never been interested in politics before . " There are enterprising young people such as Cat Hobbs , of We Own It , who lobbies to bring public services back into public ownership . And a new wave of union activists like Ewa Jasiewicz , who has helped organise some of the most @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there 's the new media barons of the age of Momentum . Because a whole parallel world has sprung up around the movement . It has its own language , acronyms , superstars and press . Sites such as the Canary , edited by Bristolian Kerry-Anne Mendoza , which is less than a year old but has already , Mendoza claims , overtaken the New Statesman , the Spectator and the Economist in terms of readership . Or Novara Media , co-founded by Aaron Bastani , an activist involved in the 2010 anti-austerity and student demos in London . Bastani had just started researching a PhD on new media and politics , he tells me , when George Osborne cut half a million public sector jobs . " And there was barely a peep out of Labour but there was a protest with 3,000 people . It just really opened my eyes . It was like , Wow , this is really compelling . People are really doing something . " Novara Media exists at an intersection of technology , direct action and politics , and it 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we did n't think the existing political structure would adapt to new media . We thought they 'd be too fuddy duddy . So seeing all this going on with Labour , all these adaptations , this invigoration , I just find it fascinating . " I went to my local CLP meeting where we nominated Jeremy Corbyn and it was a huge meeting , 300 people , who 'd also been discussing it on Facebook , on WhatsApp , on Twitter . There 's a whole new layer that has been bolted on and I think that 's really new and is happening at scale , nationally . There were nine people at the meeting last year , apparently . And now it 's 300 people and it 's black , white , young , old . And it is really local democracy . Whether it 's going to sustain , I do n't know , but it 's happening . " In a smartly appointed youth centre in Halifax , I watch a group of around 30 people , aged 18 to seventysomething , getting to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the four core team members at Momentum , is explaining to the group how to use a piece of phone-banking software that the Bristol branch of Momentum has developed . It allows volunteers to access the phone numbers of Labour party members and lobby them from their own homes . " I used to work in a call centre selling mobile phones , " he says . " But this is very different . You 're having a discussion with people and as long as you are polite and respectful it can be a very positive experience . " Before the campaign invented the app , volunteers had to go to a central phone bank office and call from there but now , as one member of the audience tells the others , " I used it when I was still in bed . " " We 've picked up a lot from the Bernie Sanders campaign , " Klug tells me . It 's a new type of grassroots techno-activism that is applying the tricks and strategies of social media and social networking to a party founded @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or not . In Silicon Valley-ese , Momentum is disrupting the Labour party . Adam Klug : ex-primary school teacher turned Momentum national organiser'Last summer , Emma and I were primary school teachers in Birmingham and we 'd decided to move to Barcelona to teach English for a bit . We volunteered for Jeremy Corbyn 's campaign and then just got more and more involved . This is n't about Corbyn . It 's much bigger than that . It 's a whole new social movement . ' Photograph : Antonio Olmos for the Observer And it 's this that 's the problem , according to Richard Angell , the director of Progress , a Blairite pressure group within the Labour party . " When the Labour party was founded it was not founded to be the British socialist party . It was not founded to be a social movement . There was a social movement at its foundation , they 're called trade unions ... What was founded was a party that was about getting working-class people into parliament on the belief that the more normal the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for normal people . " The idea that the Labour party should be a mass social movement is , for him , a fundamental misunderstanding about its central role . The Momentum conference , The World Transformed , is further evidence of the group 's ambition to cannibalise the Labour party and then destroy it . " It 's not a party-in-a-party but a party waiting to leave a party , " he wrote in the latest edition of Progress magazine . " Its national executive , trade union affiliations , membership processes , its conference alongside Labour conference and data on Labour members -- harvested by the private companies set up to run Corbyn 's leadership campaigns -- all look like the precursor to an asset strip of the Labour party . " He points to the fact that Momentum may look and act like a grassroots organisation , but it 's actually that most capitalist of things , a private company , the successor to " Jeremy Corbyn Campaign 2015 ( Supporters ) Limited " -- a private company with one director , Jon Lansman , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who once worked on Tony Benn 's leadership campaign . It 's a good point , though arguably Progress is n't the organisation to make it since it , too , is a limited company . " For which we were heavily criticised , " he points out . " They put forward these fresh-faced young people but the founder and owner of Momentum is Jon Lansman . This is a man who has terrorised the Labour party for years . It 's his life 's work to get mandatory reselection . The strategy is based on getting rid of Labour MPs not Tory ones . " It 's probably not a coincidence that I 'm not offered Lansman to interview . I get Adam Klug and Emma Rees , the two national organisers , who could n't be more unshadowy . They were primary school teachers in Birmingham until last summer and gave up their jobs to go to Barcelona to teach English and happened to volunteer for Corbyn 's campaign while staying in London for the summer with Klug 's family . They got sucked in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the four people at the heart of it ( as well as Lansman , there is a journalist , James Schneider ) . " We found ourselves in a bizarre situation where we were due to move to Barcelona five days later . We 'd actually already paid the deposit on a flat , " Klug tells me over his dinner , a sad-looking pasta salad at Greggs in Wakefield station . He could be eating tapas in the sun , I point out , instead of trekking around cities in the north of England . " I know , " he says . " But we felt like our values and political views or whatever were being lived out . For the first time we felt completely motivated to throw ourselves into something completely political . " It 's hard to regard Klug as anything other than committed and genuine . And it 's not quite the Corbyn love-in , I 'd expected . " Going forward , this should be about reshaping British politics and bringing in a new leader , " he says . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ even less strident . I 've been told she 's a hardcore Trot , the daughter of John Rees , the former national secretary of Respect , George Galloway 's outfit , and intent on nothing less than destroying the Labour party . It 's a charge I put to her , though it turns out to be nothing more than gossip . Paul Mason : writer and ex-Channel 4 economics editor'I quit Channel 4 in March because if you 've written a book that gets translated into 16 languages that says , ' neoliberalism is shit and it 's doomed ' , there 's a very limited attraction in sitting across a desk from a bunch of neoliberal businessmen , nodding in agreement when they tell you how great the system is . ' Photograph : Antonio Olmos for the Observer " My dad 's a car park attendant in Cardiff airport . He 's not interested in politics at all . It 's interesting , is n't it , how these stories take on a life of their own ? " For her , the issue @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " the Labour party being divorced from communities and from people 's lived experiences " and finding a way of reaching them in a way the party has failed to do . We 're talking at Momentum 's HQ , inside the TSSA trade union building in Euston , and an 18-year-old volunteer , Beth Foster-Ogg , who 's been working for the campaign full time since April , wanders through looking for coffee . " Look , " says Rees as Foster-Ogg drifts by , smiling . " Another of our Trotskyite infiltrators . " It 's a joke but it does point to the problem in the media coverage of Momentum . I email a prominent Corbyn critic to ask him what questions I should ask them , and he emails back : " Ask them : why do n't you just fuck off and join the Tories ? " That 's a joke too . But in Halifax , the local organiser of the Momentum group , Carol Machell , another " revolutionary " type -- a retired headteacher and former Ofsted inspector -- is not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the press as " insulting " . She joined the party after Corbyn was elected last year simply because " I really wanted to do something about the Tories . We 're called lots of names and we 're labelled ' naive ' and they say that we 're having our arms twisted by other people . But we are ordinary , thinking people who want a more equal and a better society . It really is so patronising to suggest we 're gullible idiots being led . " The last person I interview is Paul Mason , the ex-economics editor of Channel 4 News , who has become one of the movement 's chief ideologues . He 's the author of one of its key texts , PostCapitalism , and his thesis is that it all began back in 2011 . " There was the eruption of all these network protests , so Occupy , the Arab spring , the Indignados in Spain ... which went on to become Podemos winning 20% of the vote . Then you saw Syriza come to power in Greece . And @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and what we 've lived through in the last year of this mass membership upsurge very centrally within that . " As General Sherman said in the American civil war : ' You 've chosen war . We 're going to give you all the war you can take ' As it happens , 2011 was also when I interviewed him last , and we meet in the same Soho cafe . Mason still drinks multiple cups of cappuccino but everything else has changed . The pinstriped suit has gone , along with the need to try and at least appear impartial . He 's now in jeans , stubble and giving off a palpable sense of purpose . He 's not quite the movement 's Jagger but he 's one of the headliners , a star act , punching through on Twitter , appearing at the rallies , top of the bill at The World Transformed -- though he 's no Corbynista . " On the night we won the NEC decision that allowed him on to the ballot paper , I was at a rally in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cheering on Corbyn , shouting : ' We love Jeremy ! ' and I shocked them by saying : ' I do n't give a shit about Jeremy Corbyn ! ' To me , he is a good guy , I support him , but he 's a placeholder for a different kind of politics . " It 's this different kind of politics that 's energising him . In America , he says , " what the Occupy generation chose to do was to occupy the Democratic party and that 's effectively what the people who do n't like neoliberal capitalism have chosen to do here : to occupy the Labour party . " That 's interesting , I say , because that 's exactly what Richard Angell of Progress says is happening . Only the word he uses is " hijack " . " I 'm quite glad about that , though all we 're really doing is reclaiming it . " But at what cost ? Wo n't it split the party ? " We , on the left of the party @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like what General Sherman said in the American civil war : ' You 've chosen war . We 're going to give you all the war you can take . ' " It 's a slightly chilling answer . I have drunk the infectious excitement and hope of Todd and Josette and Hoskin , and been impressed by the dynamism of Gichinga and Klug and Rees . But Mason 's vision -- " I want to lay waste to the whole neoliberal hierarchical tradition that Blairism and Brownism represented " -- feels like something else entirely . Blitzkrieg . Total warfare . Shock and awe . I walk through Soho wondering , what about the rest of us ? The civilians who did n't choose this fight either . And what will be left standing when the shock and awe is over ? * This article was amended on 18 September 2016 . In an earlier version of the article we mistakenly called Ada Colau Ana Colau .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'trying to screw the truth out of lying, evasive politicians' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate that induces either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'lying, evasive politicians' is a noun phrase describing the politicians, not a verbal predicate.

They are the leading lights of a new anti-establishment : from Take Back the City activists to Students Against TTIP , and from low-wage campaigners to Momentum supporters , meet the energised young people fighting for a different kind of politics I 've heard a lot about Momentum and read a lot about Momentum and seen images of the huge Momentum rallies that have taken place around the country by the time I call Momentum 's offices and talk to someone called Joe . I 'm treading carefully because I 'm aware that , in certain quarters , I am what is called " the MSM " , also known as " the mainstream media " , and therefore , depending on who you talk to , at best , hopelessly biased ; at worst , part of a hostile rightwing anti-Corbyn conspiracy . And in the summer of 2016 , to write the words " Jeremy " and " Corbyn " sequentially in the MSM is to set a figurative match to a figurative tank of petrol and just hope it does n't take your eyebrows off . It @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ most contentious leadership election in the party 's history and on the same weekend that the new leader is announced , in the same city where the Labour party conference is being held -- Liverpool -- Momentum , the party-within-a-party set up to support Jeremy Corbyn after his successful leadership bid last year , has organised its own conference . It 's called The World Transformed , Joe explains , because its main agenda is to change the world . Over four days , more than 100 speakers will take the stage in a series of talks , workshops and debates : a roll call of people who , depending on who you talk to , are the emerging stars of a newly empowered radical anti-establishment or provocateurs attempting to hijack the party from within . My plan is to profile some of the key figures , to find out who they are , where they 've come from and what motivates them , but when I chat to Joe , the press officer for the conference , he starts trying to spin the list I 've come @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to do , of course , being hardened political hacks who after a lifetime of trying to screw the truth out of lying , evasive politicians , move over to the other side and lie and evade to other journalists on the politicians ' behalf . Except Joe has n't come up via the normal route . What did you do before you worked for Momentum , I ask him . " I do n't work for Momentum , " he says . " I 'm a volunteer . " He 's not a hardened political hack , it turns out , he 's a 24-year-old student called Joe Todd and is one of a small group of people who have organised the whole thing , off their own bat , unpaid . He 's doing a master 's at Goldsmiths , " but I 'm not sure I 'll go back " . Why not ? " Because politics is just too exciting at the moment . " A few days later , I meet up with him and two of his fellow organisers , Natasha Josette @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Momentum in south London and Josette and Hoskin , both single mothers , are from Stroud Momentum in Gloucestershire and , together , they talk enthusiastically about the event . The idea , Todd says , " is to take all these grassroots groups , things like the Hillsborough Justice Campaign and Disabled People Against Cuts and position them as part of a broader movement . All of these local campaigns have been going on but now they 're part of something so much bigger . " " I was part of local community groups before , " says Josette . " But they never had that same excitement . Then Momentum happened . " Then Momentum happened . Suddenly and dramatically , and as far as the Labour party is concerned , fatefully , last October . It 's not even a year old yet and it 's already gathered more than 17,000 paying members and seen 150 groups spring up around the country . And though it emerged from the campaign to elect Jeremy Corbyn as leader last summer , Todd insists " it 's a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . And yet , he claims , it 's been hopelessly misunderstood and misconstrued by the press , " Corbynista " being used against them as a term of abuse . " Essentially , it 's ' look at these stupid , young , naive people ' . But we 're not naive at all . We 're just responding to the situation we find ourselves in . I 'm relatively privileged yet I still live a really precarious existence , spending more than 70% of my income on rent . What do I want in this situation ? I want change . And that 's what Jeremy and Momentum represent . " There will be change , that much is clear . Though it remains to be seen whether it 's the kind of change that will involve Labour recovering from the Tories ' 14-point lead in the latest ICM/Guardian poll , pulling its fractured MPs together and barnstorming the next general election to a great socialist victory , or , if it 's the other kind , where the party continues to tear itself apart from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a bright Monday morning , I meet the journalist Owen Jones , who looks depressed and tired . When I mention something about young people , he points out : " I 'm 32 . I know I look like a 12-year-old but the last two months has aged me . " Owen Jones : author and journalist'Labour is facing a potential existential crisis . People have a sense of being at war . But if this becomes an attempt by one side to conquer another , then the Labour party could just disappear as a political force . People would be fighting over who gets the ownership of the rubble . ' Photograph : Antonio Olmos for the Observer What in particular ? " All of it ? Obviously , what 's happening within Labour is pretty depressing . I 'm sure the Tories have found the whole thing utterly hilarious . " Jones became a key Corbyn ally when he made his bid for power last summer . He was there on countless stages , campaigning for him , acting as his warm-up man @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ before the man himself strode out to his followers . " Yes , it 's partly that . And it 's partly people ... what I find frustrating is that with , say , Ukip , political analysts and commentators will put a lot of effort into understanding why people support Ukip , what makes them tick , what are their grievances . Whereas with Corbyn supporters , what I think is fascinating is the lack of curiosity . " You get people like the FT 's Janan Ganesh who tweeted and later deleted : ' All this stuff about Corbyn and this so-called movement . The truth is they 're just as thick as pig shit . ' That 's the level of serious attention that this movement is getting . " What 's remarkable , reading his book , is how dated it feels . In just two years , the political landscape of Britain has changed beyond recognition . And while the establishment that he talks about is still there , what we seem to be seeing is a new anti-establishment rising up to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Yes , I think , obviously there 's a movement which is trying to offer itself as a counterweight to the dominant , ruling elite of this country and the concentration of wealth and power in the hands of very small groups of people . I think it 's an inspiring , amazing development that so many people have joined the Labour party ; it 's now the biggest political party in Europe . Who would have thought that would have happened in this age ? Two years ago we were talking about how the political parties were over . But the challenge now is to communicate this to the rest of the country . " There is a shift that has taken place . But it needs to be harnessed properly It 's this that has been preoccupying him . Because , in many ways , he is the insider-outsider . He 's never been a Corbyn spokesman , though he has acted as a Corbyn translator , an explainer of the message to the outside world . But in July , he wrote an article broadly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Questions all Jeremy Corbyn supporters need to answer " , suggesting that Corbyn may not be able to lead the country to victory without first addressing certain issues -- such as , say , coming up with a strategy for persuading people to vote for him -- and has been taking flak ever since . " It 's very easy to go to rallies and think , wow ! But most people do n't go to rallies , they 're not on Twitter , and if there was a snap election this October , Labour could be facing its worst defeat since 1930 , no question . People have to realise that the polling is not some fabrication by a rightwing conspiracy . " Jones is both delivering his speeches to huge crowds and genuinely fearful about where the party is heading . " If I thought five years ago that I 'd be at the Reading festival talking about politics on a Sunday morning to thousands of young people as I was yesterday ... I mean , things have changed . There is a shift that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ properly because the danger is they 'll be let down if it goes wrong . Labour is facing a very real , potential existential crisis . " There is a sense of being at war and you just have to pick a side and suppress any qualms . But if this becomes an attempt by one side to conquer another , then the Labour party could disappear as a political force . People will be fighting over who gets the ownership of the rubble . " What 's clear is that a lot of what is going on has nothing to do with Corbyn . He 's a unifying principle , a catalyst , but those such as Amina Gichinga , an activist from east London who stood for the London Assembly in an attempt to " reclaim the city for the people who live here " , was doing what she was doing long before Jeremy Corbyn emerged on the scene . Gichinga 's organisation , Take Back the City , is trying to find ways of " doing democracy where you can participate en masse " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Spain , where Ada Colau , a housing campaigner , became the mayor of Barcelona . For her , the Corbyn moment , Momentum , The World Transformed , are all about having " a space , finally , for people to make their voices heard " . And , she hopes , the start of a " new , pluralistic kind of politics " . She studied international politics at Goldsmiths , but it was doing work experience at the House of Commons that turned her off Westminster . " All these people were getting pissed at lunchtimes , do you know what I mean ? I 'd see MPs out on the river terrace and I just thought , You guys live in a bubble . You do n't know who you 're working for any more . " Emma Rees : ex-primary school teacher turned Momentum national organiser'If parliament was working and everyone had a good standard of living , it would n't need to change . But we ca n't have this separation between that circus and everyday life . Change will only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an overnight project . ' Photograph : Antonio Olmos for the Observer Gichinga is one of dozens of activists who are being drawn under the Momentum umbrella . Another , Zita Holbourne of Black Activists Rising Against Cuts , tells me that the current moment " feels like a turning point " . She 's a veteran of the trade union movement who 's been reanimated by Corbyn 's ascendancy and believes that " the Labour party could be reclaimed for the people " . Like many of those I talk to , she does n't worry about how Corbyn will win over Tory votes . She believes increasing voter turnout will be enough . " There 's thousands of new people coming out , of all ages . It 's engaging people who 've never been interested in politics before . " There are enterprising young people such as Cat Hobbs , of We Own It , who lobbies to bring public services back into public ownership . And a new wave of union activists like Ewa Jasiewicz , who has helped organise some of the most @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there 's the new media barons of the age of Momentum . Because a whole parallel world has sprung up around the movement . It has its own language , acronyms , superstars and press . Sites such as the Canary , edited by Bristolian Kerry-Anne Mendoza , which is less than a year old but has already , Mendoza claims , overtaken the New Statesman , the Spectator and the Economist in terms of readership . Or Novara Media , co-founded by Aaron Bastani , an activist involved in the 2010 anti-austerity and student demos in London . Bastani had just started researching a PhD on new media and politics , he tells me , when George Osborne cut half a million public sector jobs . " And there was barely a peep out of Labour but there was a protest with 3,000 people . It just really opened my eyes . It was like , Wow , this is really compelling . People are really doing something . " Novara Media exists at an intersection of technology , direct action and politics , and it 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we did n't think the existing political structure would adapt to new media . We thought they 'd be too fuddy duddy . So seeing all this going on with Labour , all these adaptations , this invigoration , I just find it fascinating . " I went to my local CLP meeting where we nominated Jeremy Corbyn and it was a huge meeting , 300 people , who 'd also been discussing it on Facebook , on WhatsApp , on Twitter . There 's a whole new layer that has been bolted on and I think that 's really new and is happening at scale , nationally . There were nine people at the meeting last year , apparently . And now it 's 300 people and it 's black , white , young , old . And it is really local democracy . Whether it 's going to sustain , I do n't know , but it 's happening . " In a smartly appointed youth centre in Halifax , I watch a group of around 30 people , aged 18 to seventysomething , getting to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the four core team members at Momentum , is explaining to the group how to use a piece of phone-banking software that the Bristol branch of Momentum has developed . It allows volunteers to access the phone numbers of Labour party members and lobby them from their own homes . " I used to work in a call centre selling mobile phones , " he says . " But this is very different . You 're having a discussion with people and as long as you are polite and respectful it can be a very positive experience . " Before the campaign invented the app , volunteers had to go to a central phone bank office and call from there but now , as one member of the audience tells the others , " I used it when I was still in bed . " " We 've picked up a lot from the Bernie Sanders campaign , " Klug tells me . It 's a new type of grassroots techno-activism that is applying the tricks and strategies of social media and social networking to a party founded @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or not . In Silicon Valley-ese , Momentum is disrupting the Labour party . Adam Klug : ex-primary school teacher turned Momentum national organiser'Last summer , Emma and I were primary school teachers in Birmingham and we 'd decided to move to Barcelona to teach English for a bit . We volunteered for Jeremy Corbyn 's campaign and then just got more and more involved . This is n't about Corbyn . It 's much bigger than that . It 's a whole new social movement . ' Photograph : Antonio Olmos for the Observer And it 's this that 's the problem , according to Richard Angell , the director of Progress , a Blairite pressure group within the Labour party . " When the Labour party was founded it was not founded to be the British socialist party . It was not founded to be a social movement . There was a social movement at its foundation , they 're called trade unions ... What was founded was a party that was about getting working-class people into parliament on the belief that the more normal the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for normal people . " The idea that the Labour party should be a mass social movement is , for him , a fundamental misunderstanding about its central role . The Momentum conference , The World Transformed , is further evidence of the group 's ambition to cannibalise the Labour party and then destroy it . " It 's not a party-in-a-party but a party waiting to leave a party , " he wrote in the latest edition of Progress magazine . " Its national executive , trade union affiliations , membership processes , its conference alongside Labour conference and data on Labour members -- harvested by the private companies set up to run Corbyn 's leadership campaigns -- all look like the precursor to an asset strip of the Labour party . " He points to the fact that Momentum may look and act like a grassroots organisation , but it 's actually that most capitalist of things , a private company , the successor to " Jeremy Corbyn Campaign 2015 ( Supporters ) Limited " -- a private company with one director , Jon Lansman , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who once worked on Tony Benn 's leadership campaign . It 's a good point , though arguably Progress is n't the organisation to make it since it , too , is a limited company . " For which we were heavily criticised , " he points out . " They put forward these fresh-faced young people but the founder and owner of Momentum is Jon Lansman . This is a man who has terrorised the Labour party for years . It 's his life 's work to get mandatory reselection . The strategy is based on getting rid of Labour MPs not Tory ones . " It 's probably not a coincidence that I 'm not offered Lansman to interview . I get Adam Klug and Emma Rees , the two national organisers , who could n't be more unshadowy . They were primary school teachers in Birmingham until last summer and gave up their jobs to go to Barcelona to teach English and happened to volunteer for Corbyn 's campaign while staying in London for the summer with Klug 's family . They got sucked in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the four people at the heart of it ( as well as Lansman , there is a journalist , James Schneider ) . " We found ourselves in a bizarre situation where we were due to move to Barcelona five days later . We 'd actually already paid the deposit on a flat , " Klug tells me over his dinner , a sad-looking pasta salad at Greggs in Wakefield station . He could be eating tapas in the sun , I point out , instead of trekking around cities in the north of England . " I know , " he says . " But we felt like our values and political views or whatever were being lived out . For the first time we felt completely motivated to throw ourselves into something completely political . " It 's hard to regard Klug as anything other than committed and genuine . And it 's not quite the Corbyn love-in , I 'd expected . " Going forward , this should be about reshaping British politics and bringing in a new leader , " he says . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ even less strident . I 've been told she 's a hardcore Trot , the daughter of John Rees , the former national secretary of Respect , George Galloway 's outfit , and intent on nothing less than destroying the Labour party . It 's a charge I put to her , though it turns out to be nothing more than gossip . Paul Mason : writer and ex-Channel 4 economics editor'I quit Channel 4 in March because if you 've written a book that gets translated into 16 languages that says , ' neoliberalism is shit and it 's doomed ' , there 's a very limited attraction in sitting across a desk from a bunch of neoliberal businessmen , nodding in agreement when they tell you how great the system is . ' Photograph : Antonio Olmos for the Observer " My dad 's a car park attendant in Cardiff airport . He 's not interested in politics at all . It 's interesting , is n't it , how these stories take on a life of their own ? " For her , the issue @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " the Labour party being divorced from communities and from people 's lived experiences " and finding a way of reaching them in a way the party has failed to do . We 're talking at Momentum 's HQ , inside the TSSA trade union building in Euston , and an 18-year-old volunteer , Beth Foster-Ogg , who 's been working for the campaign full time since April , wanders through looking for coffee . " Look , " says Rees as Foster-Ogg drifts by , smiling . " Another of our Trotskyite infiltrators . " It 's a joke but it does point to the problem in the media coverage of Momentum . I email a prominent Corbyn critic to ask him what questions I should ask them , and he emails back : " Ask them : why do n't you just fuck off and join the Tories ? " That 's a joke too . But in Halifax , the local organiser of the Momentum group , Carol Machell , another " revolutionary " type -- a retired headteacher and former Ofsted inspector -- is not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the press as " insulting " . She joined the party after Corbyn was elected last year simply because " I really wanted to do something about the Tories . We 're called lots of names and we 're labelled ' naive ' and they say that we 're having our arms twisted by other people . But we are ordinary , thinking people who want a more equal and a better society . It really is so patronising to suggest we 're gullible idiots being led . " The last person I interview is Paul Mason , the ex-economics editor of Channel 4 News , who has become one of the movement 's chief ideologues . He 's the author of one of its key texts , PostCapitalism , and his thesis is that it all began back in 2011 . " There was the eruption of all these network protests , so Occupy , the Arab spring , the Indignados in Spain ... which went on to become Podemos winning 20% of the vote . Then you saw Syriza come to power in Greece . And @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and what we 've lived through in the last year of this mass membership upsurge very centrally within that . " As General Sherman said in the American civil war : ' You 've chosen war . We 're going to give you all the war you can take ' As it happens , 2011 was also when I interviewed him last , and we meet in the same Soho cafe . Mason still drinks multiple cups of cappuccino but everything else has changed . The pinstriped suit has gone , along with the need to try and at least appear impartial . He 's now in jeans , stubble and giving off a palpable sense of purpose . He 's not quite the movement 's Jagger but he 's one of the headliners , a star act , punching through on Twitter , appearing at the rallies , top of the bill at The World Transformed -- though he 's no Corbynista . " On the night we won the NEC decision that allowed him on to the ballot paper , I was at a rally in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cheering on Corbyn , shouting : ' We love Jeremy ! ' and I shocked them by saying : ' I do n't give a shit about Jeremy Corbyn ! ' To me , he is a good guy , I support him , but he 's a placeholder for a different kind of politics . " It 's this different kind of politics that 's energising him . In America , he says , " what the Occupy generation chose to do was to occupy the Democratic party and that 's effectively what the people who do n't like neoliberal capitalism have chosen to do here : to occupy the Labour party . " That 's interesting , I say , because that 's exactly what Richard Angell of Progress says is happening . Only the word he uses is " hijack " . " I 'm quite glad about that , though all we 're really doing is reclaiming it . " But at what cost ? Wo n't it split the party ? " We , on the left of the party @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like what General Sherman said in the American civil war : ' You 've chosen war . We 're going to give you all the war you can take . ' " It 's a slightly chilling answer . I have drunk the infectious excitement and hope of Todd and Josette and Hoskin , and been impressed by the dynamism of Gichinga and Klug and Rees . But Mason 's vision -- " I want to lay waste to the whole neoliberal hierarchical tradition that Blairism and Brownism represented " -- feels like something else entirely . Blitzkrieg . Total warfare . Shock and awe . I walk through Soho wondering , what about the rest of us ? The civilians who did n't choose this fight either . And what will be left standing when the shock and awe is over ? * This article was amended on 18 September 2016 . In an earlier version of the article we mistakenly called Ada Colau Ana Colau .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase 'receiving Cookies', but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Therefore, it does not qualify as an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A threshing machine from a Parkgate family 's farm is a key highlight of a new exhibition at the Ulster Folk & Transport Museum . The Museum has refreshed its popular Land , Sea and Sky galleries to include two new exhibitions entitled On the Hoof and Taken for a Ride . On the Hoof explores the origins and development of early horse-drawn vehicles , from slipes and slide cars to trottle cars and Scotch cart and a real highlight of the display is a threshing machine which dates from 1916 and came from the Cunningham family farm in Parkgate , Antrim . The Taken for a Ride exhibition features a complete collection of carriages owned by an entrepreneur from Larne , James Chaine , who was instrumental in developing the Larne Stranraer cross-channel link and played a key role in building and developing Larne 's Port and Harbour .

Lothian are said to be fully ? 1,200 cheaper than in neighbouring Edinburgh .
The report reveals that the basic cost of burial fees in Scotland -- not including undertakers ' fees -- is now on average ? 1,363 , a seven per cent increase since last year . The rise has seen the number of people going to CAB seeking help almost double in four years , creating what CAB says is a major problem that needs urgent action . Costs have increased in all but three council areas , and the dearest of all is Edinburgh . Meanwhile the charge for local authority cremations is on average ? 670 : an increase of 11 per cent since last year , with costs varying by more than ? 1.500 between the most expensive and least expensive areas . The new report , The Cost of Saying Goodbye 2016 , details the rising prices of burials and cremations in all of Scotland 's 32 Local Authorities . Citizens Advice Scotland spokesman Fraser Sutherland said : " When someone dies you have to pay your local authority for burial costs like the internment and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ costs like funeral directors and flowers . " For the last three years we have contacted all 32 councils in Scotland to find out the prices they charge for these services . " Since last year we have seen an overall eight per cent rise in burial costs , and that there are still huge disparities between the prices set by different councils . " For example the burial costs in Edinburgh are ? 1,200 higher than in West Lothian , a neighbouring local authority , and the cost difference between the most expensive location , Edinburgh , and the cheapest location , Western Isles , is ? 1,552 . " He added : " Costs levied by local authorities can increase for a number of reasons , some have made substantial investment in new crematoria or graveyards while others have looked to reduce current subsidies as a result of tighter budgets .

" However , even this is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The additional burden of costs such as funeral directors ' expenses , a wake and flowers make this a significant expense for many low income families , especially if the bereavement is sudden .

start with a third minute goal as P.J. Lavery latched onto Connor McAliskey 's deft chip forward to fire to the back of Jack McCallan 's net . However , any notions they had of easing clear quickly evaporated as Carmen registered the next six scores through Jonathan Munroe , Caolan Daly , Martin Penrose , Conor Gormley and a brace from late replacement Ruairi Loughran to move 0-6 to 1-0 ahead after 15 minutes .
Gormley was rolling back the years with his defensive positioning repelling several promising Clonoe forays and , with Loughran , Daly and Niall Loughran to the fore , Carmen defied their underdogs tag to make a game of it . McNulty landed a free before Paul Coney raised Clonoe 's first white flag from play on 22 minutes , but Carrickmore remained the better team . Penrose converted three further frees in response to conversions from McNulty and Darryl Magee as Carrickmore enjoyed a 1-4 to 0-9 halftime cushion .

Mark Donnelly and Michael Slane nudged Carmen two clear again only for a stunning McAliskey strike from distance to keep the outcome on a knife edge .

It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', where 'receiving' is part of a gerund phrase but lacks the necessary NP object and does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction's interpretation types (movement/extraction or prevention).

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'creating a half chance out of nothing' does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate and does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'out of nothing' is an idiomatic expression indicating that the chance was created from a situation where there seemed to be no opportunity.

Moyes but Pickford bright vs . Spurs
Sunderland wasted the chance to turn an encouraging display at Tottenham into an unexpected point , losing 1-0 on Sunday after a woeful goalmouth error by Papy Djilobodji allowed Harry Kane an easy winner . Spurs had levels of possession and dominance that were embarrassing at times for the loud and vocal Sunderland following at White Hart Lane , and they should have won more handsomely . But the best chance in a goalless first half fell to Sunderland ' Steven Pienaar , whose unconvincing attempt to convert an Adnan Januzaj cross was cleared off the line by Kyle Walker . The need for greater sharpness in front of goal , especially when chances were so infrequent , was emphasised when Kane gleefully scored from close range after Djilobodji made a complete hash of a routine clearance in front of Sunderland 's star man , goalkeeper Jordan Pickford . Januzaj later completed frustrating afternoon , appearing to fall out with Jermain Defoe after a wretched attempt to put the former Spurs and England striker through on goal , before he was sent off for picking up two @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sunderland already face their customary battle for survival and the next home game , against Crystal Palace on Saturday , assumes immense significance . Positives This should have been a heavier defeat -- Pickford is to thank for that -- and Sunderland 's first half resistance showed that manager David Moyes may yet have the making of an organised and effective unit . Negatives A distinct lack of creativity on the few occasions Sunderland moved forward , coupled with familiar weaknesses , most obviously in the manner in which the winner was conceded . Manager rating out of 10 6 -- Moyes knew his men faced an uphill battle against superior opposition and fielded as competitive a side as his resources allow but must find a way of ensuring service and support for Defoe . GK Jordan Pickford , 7 -- Made several good saves to keep Spurs out , distributed with his usual accuracy and could not be faulted for the goal . Largely responsible for denying the home side a bigger win . DF Jason Denayer , 6 -- A @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enough to suggest he may become an important figure in Moyes ' squad . DF Papy Djilobodji , 5 -- After a competent first half , was guilty of sloppy mistakes in the second and made a mess of clearing Dele Alli 's header across goal , giving Kane the simplest of finishes . DF Lamine Kone , 6 -- Reasonably sound at the heart of defence with vital blocks , clearances and challenges but found Alli a constant handful . DF Javier Manquillo , 6 -- Advanced well on the wing but was repeatedly stretched along with his colleagues in defence . MF Lee Cattermole , 5 -- Back from injury and probably less than match fit . Struggled to impose himself in defensive midfield . MF Didier Ndong , 6 -- Showed some cultured touches , especially in the first half , and useful combative qualities but marred an otherwise promising display with wastefulness in rare spells of possession .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'made a career out of attacking', where 'attacking' is part of a gerund phrase modifying 'career', and there is no NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

MOST of my ... I have found myself doing volunteer work . I did n't set out to do it . It just happened . It started with the Dromore Catholic Boy Scouts and their now infamous ' Bob a job week ' . I remember it well . A shilling in old money and five pence in new money for lending a hand . Not many people in my estate had cars back then but down the road an enterprising Protestant neighbour had quite a few cars , some of them vintage , which he was quite happy to let me wash for a ' bob ' a car . I went to the car wash last week and it cost me ? 5 . That was a hundred cars for me as an exploited cub scout and my bob a job good works . My volunteering evolved to the junior St Vincent de Paul , St Francis Youth Group , Shamrocks running club , the credit union , the GAA , St John Bosco GAC and yes , even politics . In volunteering I joined the tens of thousands of people who through various organisations are providing services @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , sporting clubs , charities and communities across Northern Ireland . Their efforts are for the most part unpaid , rarely thanked and their work continues in good times and bad . In latter years my volunteering has centred on personal interests such as the homeless , credit union , town centre sustainability , third world , refugees and more recently the Stronger in Campaign during the referendum . But there are others who carry out equally good public service on various boards across Northern Ireland . Sometimes this work is remunerated through the public purse . The only remunerated public post I ever undertook was for the new Northern Ireland Policing Board . It brought with it great enjoyment , personal fulfilment and felt worthwhile - but it also came with risks , threats , abuse and stress . During my time there I came to admire several senior police officers from the former RUC who were now committed to serving in the PSNI . One of those was Alan McQuillan . Alan was a hugely impressive man . When he left the PSNI to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Alan did n't do fear or favour . When unionists tried to manipulate policing for political ends , he resisted . When republicans and loyalists thought they were given the status of ' untouchables ' he disabused them of that notion . It was a huge mistake to wind up his organisation and to be frank it was becoming very effective - some would say too effective . There was widespread queasiness within the NIO for the so called peace process . When Alan and others were asked to be part of the independent panel on MLAs ' salaries and benefits I was pleasantly surprised . Turns out our political classes were also surprised but less pleasantly . So when a man of the stature and experience of Alan McQuillan says recently that he will never go forward for a publicly appointed position in Northern Ireland again because it is racked with political cronyism then we should take notice . We simply ca n't afford to lose this sort of talent from public service . Of course some politicians have made a career out of attacking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is true that a few have abused the system , it has to be acknowledged that for the most part the overwhelming majority of those who put themselves forward for public service do it with a real sense of altruism . But is the pool from which they are selected too limited ? Almost certainly yes . Should there be a limit to the number of appointments an individual can hold ? Absolutely yes . Though in fairness there 's nothing new in what 's happening now . It 's always been the case that where there is political power there is political patronage . Alliance were usually the favoured breed for selection during the direct rule years and both the SDLP/ Ulster Unionists dabbled in patronage under their tenure . So it 's hardly surprising that the DUP and Sinn F ? in end up with a raft of appointees on public bodies with whom they find political affinity . Of course it does n't make it right but we have an external body allegedly monitoring the processes for public appointments . It 's supposed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Commissioner for Public Appointments . Few would be impressed with the performance of this body so far and it seems to me unless it has real teeth it would be better to make it redundant . |

The sentence 'Can I opt out of receiving Cookies?' does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of receiving Cookies', and it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it is a question about choosing not to receive cookies, which does not align with the defined properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A former resident of a Catholic boys ' home told jurors of a catalogue of sadistic beatings and sex abuse at the hands of nuns , priests and carers . The man , who can not be identified , was giving evidence in a trial of facts for James McCann , 80 , who is accused of 52 charges of physical and sex assaults on 26 boys in the 1960s and 70s . The Old Bailey heard this week that the alleged offences took place at St Francis children 's home in Shefford , where abuse was already deeply entrenched in the culture . The person in charge , Father John Ryan , was described by the witness as " the most evil man I have ever met in my life " .

On another occasion when he was in the bath , the same nun put his hand on her breast and touched his groin , leaving him " terrified " , he said . Around the same time , the witness told of his first encounter with McCann as he lay in bed recovering . He said : " Father Ryan , James McCann and another member of staff came into the room .

Lyon manager Bruno ... pulled out of signing Emmanuel Adebayor to get Jean-Philippe Mateta , according to the club 's president . Jean-Michel Aulas claims that Genesio opted to bring Mateta to the Ligue 1 side despite having already ' released funds ' to secure the Adebayor deal . The former Crystal Palace and Tottenham striker was expected to join Lyon but was told that his lack of availability during the Africa Cup of Nations and his ineligibility for the Champions League group stage meant signing him was no longer an option . Former Crystal Palace striker Emmanuel Adebayor was set to join Lyon last week But , according to Aulas , another reason for Lyon signing 19-year-old Mateta was because of his age . Signing him on a five-year contract seemed better business , Aulas claims , than only being able to offer Adebayor a short-term deal with no potential of making a profit . ' Actually we had , after the injury to Alexandre Lacazette , identified a number of players , ' he told Canal+ . Jean-Michel Aulas , Lyon 's club president , says the ' ultimate decision ' was taken by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there was interest from Juventus and other French clubs . Emmanuel Adebayor had agreed to come two days late . You could make a transfer on one hand and a big payday on the other . ' Bruno and his staff made the decision . We had released the funds .

Leicester made news the world over when King Richard III 's body was found buried under a council car park , writes Robert Stevens . Sussex too could have its own ' Midlands ' moment because no-one knows where the body of King Harold lies - and it could be Sussex . There is little doubt Harold II was killed at the Battle of Hastings . Traditionally he died when an arrow hit his eye , but its now believed he may be depicted on the Bayeux Tapestry as another Saxon being mutilated and trampled under a horse 's hooves . William of Poitiers says he ' could not be identified by his face but only by certain marks on his body ' . His corpse was brought into the Duke 's camp where Harold 's mother offered William his weight in gold for the body , but William did not see this as fit so rejected the idea . According to the ' Carmen de Hastingae Proelio ' ( song of the Battle of Hastings by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would sooner entrust the shores of that very port to him - under a heap of stones . Therefore , even as he had sworn , he commanded the body to be buried in the earth on the high summit of a cliff ' . But where was he buried ? The common assumption was he was taken to Waltham Abbey ( refounded in 1060 ) where an alleged grave lies to the east of the present church . Others say he was buried at Bosham in Sussex . This is where Harold was born , where his father refounded the church and where , in 1954 , a mysterious Anglo-Saxon coffin was found . The coffin allegedly contained the body of a man aged about 60 with one leg missing together with his head , which might tie in with Harold 's injuries . Requests to have the body exhumed have been rejected by the Diocese of Chichester because they claim there is too slim a chance of proof to merit disturbing the remains . Incidentally the body of King Canute 's daughter , who drowned in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there . There are other theories - he was buried at Bishop Stortford and some claim he even survived the battle and lived the rest of his life as a hermit before dying in Chester or Canterbury . After the battle one legend has his wife Edith Swannestia ( Swanneck ) searching for his dismembered corpse and only finding it by some ' private mark ' . Every October on the anniversary her ghost is said to wander the Abbey looking for her husband 's body , although she does not need to look too far as he is also said to appear with an arrow in his eye ! So was Harold buried on the beach ? At the moment there is an art installation in Pevensey Castle by Alice Shyler Mallet ( who claims to be related to William Malet whom William the Conquerer entasked with burying Harold ) Harold 's Grave -- His Weight In Gold recounting the story of his burial . If the Normans arrived at Pevensey and William decreed ' By the duke 's commands , O Harold , you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ guardian of the shore and sea ' was he simply left under a pile of stones at Pevensey where the invasion began ? At that time the waves lapped the south slopes of the castle and the beach would now be part of Anderida Park , so could there be the remotest chance dog walkers , tourists and passers by might all be walking over the mortal remains of the last Saxon King of England as they pass under the castle ?

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', which is a different construction where 'opt out of' is followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks the necessary NP object and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

Leicester made news the world over when King Richard III 's body was found buried under a council car park , writes Robert Stevens . Sussex too could have its own ' Midlands ' moment because no-one knows where the body of King Harold lies - and it could be Sussex . There is little doubt Harold II was killed at the Battle of Hastings . Traditionally he died when an arrow hit his eye , but its now believed he may be depicted on the Bayeux Tapestry as another Saxon being mutilated and trampled under a horse 's hooves . William of Poitiers says he ' could not be identified by his face but only by certain marks on his body ' . His corpse was brought into the Duke 's camp where Harold 's mother offered William his weight in gold for the body , but William did not see this as fit so rejected the idea . According to the ' Carmen de Hastingae Proelio ' ( song of the Battle of Hastings by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would sooner entrust the shores of that very port to him - under a heap of stones . Therefore , even as he had sworn , he commanded the body to be buried in the earth on the high summit of a cliff ' . But where was he buried ? The common assumption was he was taken to Waltham Abbey ( refounded in 1060 ) where an alleged grave lies to the east of the present church . Others say he was buried at Bosham in Sussex . This is where Harold was born , where his father refounded the church and where , in 1954 , a mysterious Anglo-Saxon coffin was found . The coffin allegedly contained the body of a man aged about 60 with one leg missing together with his head , which might tie in with Harold 's injuries . Requests to have the body exhumed have been rejected by the Diocese of Chichester because they claim there is too slim a chance of proof to merit disturbing the remains . Incidentally the body of King Canute 's daughter , who drowned in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there . There are other theories - he was buried at Bishop Stortford and some claim he even survived the battle and lived the rest of his life as a hermit before dying in Chester or Canterbury . After the battle one legend has his wife Edith Swannestia ( Swanneck ) searching for his dismembered corpse and only finding it by some ' private mark ' . Every October on the anniversary her ghost is said to wander the Abbey looking for her husband 's body , although she does not need to look too far as he is also said to appear with an arrow in his eye ! So was Harold buried on the beach ? At the moment there is an art installation in Pevensey Castle by Alice Shyler Mallet ( who claims to be related to William Malet whom William the Conquerer entasked with burying Harold ) Harold 's Grave -- His Weight In Gold recounting the story of his burial . If the Normans arrived at Pevensey and William decreed ' By the duke 's commands , O Harold , you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ guardian of the shore and sea ' was he simply left under a pile of stones at Pevensey where the invasion began ? At that time the waves lapped the south slopes of the castle and the beach would now be part of Anderida Park , so could there be the remotest chance dog walkers , tourists and passers by might all be walking over the mortal remains of the last Saxon King of England as they pass under the castle ?

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of nothing' is a prepositional phrase modifying 'make', not a VP[-ing] predicate.

When Virginia Woolf ... the fantastical biographical novel Orlando , she broke all the rules of time and gender . The protagonist lives for four centuries but ages just 36 years ; halfway through , with no explanation , he switches from being a man to a woman . Orlando was Christopher Bailey 's starting point for Burberry 's show , a link more fundamental than the way in which this season 's Cavalry women 's jacket recalls the handsome boy-prince costumes worn by Tilda Swinton in the 1992 film . The show was staged in the husk of Foyles bookshop , with a copy of Orlando on every seat . At the champagne reception before the show , Cara Delevingne was being snapchatted metres away from a workbench at which craftswomen demonstrated the traditional passementerie arts of tassel making : the present and past of fashion , cheek by jowl . " What I love about Orlando is that nothing is specific to one time or one gender , " said designer Christopher Bailey after the show . " It is a book about emotion and beauty , which is what I feel fashion is about . " The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ clothes themselves inevitably feel like walk ons , rather than the main event . There was a fashion message , in the blurring of male and female style : the trenchcoat , after all , is genderless , a point that was underscored by a collection that went big on velvet blazers , wide trousers , piped silk pyjama shirts , and other gender-fluid pieces . Long sheer lace skirts were worn over silk , Bermuda-length bloomers . A catwalk show with the purpose of selling trenchcoats can never exist on the same cultural plane as a a masterpiece of experimental fiction . But in the very different world of global luxury retail , Burberry is attempting something like a commercial version of Woolf 's genteel iconoclasm . The September show , as this was called , broke with the arcane structures of fashion week . Instead of showing clothes six months before they go on sale and segregating womenswear from menswear in different fashion weeks , these clothes for both men and women were on sale immediately . Jettisoning the pedantic labels of AW16 and SS17 -- @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the outside world than any other industry 's office admin -- these clothes were " seasonless " . A sharply tailored jacket and a silk shirt are covetable at any time of year , after all . Models on the catwalk for the Burberry show during London Fashion Week Spring/ Summer 2017 collections at " Makers House " , Soho , London . Photograph : Isabel Infantes/PA Orlando is most closely associated with gender fluidity , and the new coed concept is the most eye catching element of the changes currently happening at fashion week . But the dissolution of the traditional fashion timetable is just as revolutionary . According to the Encyclopaedia Britannica , stream of consciousness is a narrative technique in which " to represent the full richness , speed , and subtlety of the mind at work , the writer incorporates snatches of incoherent thought , ungrammatical constructions , and free associations of ideas , images and words " . This technique , which Woolf used in Orlando , also serves as a fair description of the way in which ideas and trends @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ media . This collection was on sale online at the same time it was on the catwalk ; some key names , including British Fashion Council chairman Natalie Massenet and pop star Taylor Swift , had been photographed wearing the clothes some days before the show took place . The tight reins of long-lead fashion are on the way out , and a new era of stream-of-consciousness fashion is beginning . Elsewhere , Christopher Kane 's tenth anniversary show celebrated iconoclasm of a different kind , reminding the audience how he can take the most unpromising looks -- here , plastic Crocs and pencil skirts in " road kill fur " -- and turn them into want-it-now fashion . " For my very first collection , I made pieces out of stockings that I bought on Ridley Road market " , he said after the show . " I have always been able to make anything out of nothing . Those dresses are like holy relics to us now . We get them out and look at them every season . " Roksanda stands in serene @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ combines a boldness with colour -- Elastoplast pink with brick red , in this instance -- with a cool eye and an unerring taste level . It is this instinct for the true north of chic which has evolved her label from a niche brand for art collectors and wealthy gallerists into a go-to name for A-list soft-power dressers including Samantha Cameron and Michelle Obama . The penultimate day of London fashion week took a darker turn at Erdem , and a collection conceived when the designer read about the story of Jean Kerr , lady-in-waiting to the consort of Charles I and sometime spy for the King of Spain , whose wardrobe was lost at sea during a daring mission to pawn the crown jewels to raise money for the royalists on the eve of the English civil war .

it 's hard to accept the advice of European central bankers on the future of the City
The passport arrangements for City-based banks , which allow them to operate across the European Union on a single licence , were always going to be a sensitive Brexit issue . Jens Weidmann , the president of Germany 's Bundesbank , has plunged into the debate suggesting that if the UK does not forge some kind of deal with the single market , passport rights could be endangered . But is he correct ? The post-Brexit indications from some of the largest of the banks with bases in London , including HSBC , is nothing much has to change . Wells Fargo may be in the doghouse at home , but that has not stopped it going head on with a spanking new City headquarters .

Deutsche Bank , Germany 's top bank , is struggling with a legacy of bad loans , US penalties for poor behaviour and inadequate capital . Germany 's regional Landesbanken remain as unreformed as ever , the political creatures of state governments . Share The present stand-off between the European Union and Rome on how to fix the ? 360billion of non-performing loans in the Italian banking system is an illustration of why the 250 or so banks based in the City are not enamoured with the idea of being regulated by Brussels or Frankfurt . Indeed , Weidmann is less than happy about the present state of affairs in Frankfurt where both the Bundesbank and the European Central Bank are based . He argues that the ECB has conflicting responsibilities between its role in setting interest rates and that of supervising banks . As the guardian of monetary orthodoxy , the Bundesbank was never likely to be happy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Yet the Bundesbank is also aware that without these measures banks across Europe 's southern tier would be unable to lend at all . The lack of a coherent banking union and an adequate emergency fund for re-capitalising the banking system is at the core of the problems of the eurozone . Set against these monumental problems of command , control and governance , the UK 's passport rights look a mere bagatelle . Credit scam When normal credit channels dried up in the financial crisis , payday lenders rushed into the empty space . Use of digital technology made this new source of credit popular with hard pressed consumers . Elimination of collectors , some wielding baseball bats , looked like a social benefit .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes running out of icing, which is a different usage of 'out of' indicating depletion, not involving a causee or a prevention/movement interpretation.

People have a right to cake . That 's why Madeira sponge is at the top of Maslow 's Hierarchy of Needs . With the imminent demise of The Great British Bake-Off in its current form , Den Of Geek saw a gap in the cake-based competion market and duly filled it . Ladies and gentlemen , welcome to Geeks Bake Things ! The idea is simple : make a nerdily themed cake for something in the area of five pounds ( we 're not expecting receipts but do n't go mad ) , send us in a picture to denofgeek@yahoo.com and you could win something brilliant out of our cupboard . The deadline for entries is one week from today , Tuesday the 27th of September . Four writers below tried it , and here 's how they got on ... I like to think I 'm @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ challenge , I like to think I 'm quite good at making novelty cakes . Once , for a friend 's birthday , I made him a triple-layered cake in the shape of a well , with a fondant Sadako climbing out of it -- and because I made it at his house , I made the whole thing without access to weighing scales , which surely qualifies me for anything . So when Den of Geek asked me to make a geeky cake , I started thinking big . I thought about recreating some kind of horror movie tableau in sugar ; maybe a Saw trap ? Then I wondered about maybe baking something from Gotham , my current favourite TV show . Surely I could build that German Expressionist style police station out of gingerbread ? And then I remembered that I 've watched The Great British Bake Off , and it 's always the most ambitious plans that go most apocalyptically wrong . I did n't want to have to send in a photo of my bin at the end of all this , so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ where I started : with a two-layer sponge cake , sandwiched together with jam , and a bowl of the best buttercream in the world , dyed green . ( Since no-one 's bothered to invent Wonkavision yet , you 're just gon na have to trust me about the buttercream . ) After taking this photo , I slathered the buttercream onto the top and sides of the cake , and put it in the fridge out of the way while I did the fiddly bits . A note on the shopping budget here : I used flour , sugar , eggs , milk , and red and green food colouring I already had in the cupboard . I did have to buy ready-to-roll icing ( ? 2 ) , two packs of butter ( ? 1.74 ) , and some black food colouring ( ? 1 ) to make this cake , so my total is a slightly cheaty ? 4.74 . I regret nothing . Anyway , next I kneaded red food colouring into the icing , inadvertently making myself look a bit murdery in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a circle , using my best One Direction breakfast plate as a guide . Can you tell what it is yet ? How about now ? This was by far the scariest part of the project ; I could feel the ghost of Paul Hollywood peering disdainfully over my shoulder the whole time . It was n't a complicated process -- I just rolled out the icing , cut out a ghost shape , and then piped an outline in black glac ? icing -- but I knew this was the bit where it could all go horribly wrong . It 's fine , though , right ? As long as you do n't look too closely at the ghost 's hands ... The last step was just to put the logo on top of the cake . Boom . Bring on the judges . I ai n't afraid of no geek baking challenge . Once upon a time I took part in The Poundshop Dalek Challenge and even though I found a brand new use for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's title . I was downbeat , how would I restore glory back to the family name ? Then came though the challenge -- in true Bake Off style we were going head to head again -- this time with cake but not just any cake , a glorious geeky cake . After the joy of the challenge passed I had to get my thinking hat on . What could I make not only to win but that actually looked like it was supposed to ( a lesson well learned from the previous challenge ) ? I ended up torn between a cake version of Hoth and the Captain America Shield and unsure if there was enough Royal Icing within the M25 to truly create my vision of Hoth I decided to press ahead with the shield . We had a ? 5 budget to spend on our masterpieces -- I promptly spent mine on pre-made icing and the rest of the ingredients came directly out of my kitchen cupboards . Firstly , was the cake and after some discussion with my husband ( who would be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on a Chocolate Orange Cake base because frankly why not . Base ingredients were thrown into the mixer and split into four small pans to make up the required layers and while they cooked away in the oven I got on with making a buttercream filling which was split into three equalish portions and dyed in the classic red , white and blue of the Captain . Once the cake was cooled I then began the process of building the layers . First , the cakes needed to be even so they would stack correctly then came the process of adding each layer of buttercream until it was stacked like a beautiful tower of patriotic deliciousness . Finally came the decoration -- I hate icing , I hate making it and I hate rolling it and I hate trying to get it on cakes but dear reader for you ( and to win obvs ) I faced my cakey fear and managed to cover the cake and decorate it with the Captain 's shield . As you can see it is so powerful Loki is trying to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the best ones anyway ) are there to help ! Also , as you can see if you do manage to get inside , the Red , White and Blue are running through it ! Warning : some of the pics below are NSFW Like all little girls , I grew up dreaming that one day David Bowie would kidnap my brother , feed me a drugged peach and take me to a masked ball . My cake is a tribute to that dream . Observing the unnerving children 's party trend for half-submerging a Barbie in sponge layers and and icing her up to the nipples , the plan was to recreate Sarah from Labyrinth 's hallucination dress using a doll . My vision was simple : sponge light as a bubble and icing sweet as an eighties synth chord , all topped by a brunette beauty whose hair had been teased to the volume of a small car . First , I needed my Sarah . A knock-off Poundland " fashion " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nylon mini-dress and plucked of her trendy pink highlights . Then it was just a case of removing her original features and painstakingly hand-carving an exact 3D replica of Jennifer Connelly 's face . It was n't a fast process , but as you can see from the results below , it was worth every minute . The next step - make five sponge cakes - was straightforward but took forever . It was originally supposed to be three sponge cakes but due to lubrication issues one broke coming out of the tin and none of them really rose in the oven . Then it was a case of piling them up , driving the doll into the middle of them and trimming around the sides to create a curved edge . Next , I made a vat of buttercream and piped it around the edge of the cake , carefully running out of icing a layer too soon , just as planned . Enter : the rest of the mini meringues I 'd bought to act as 80s ballgown sleeves to form a tasteful ( and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with which I piped some skirt frills and a bodice for Sarah 's dress to protect her modesty before sprinkling on enough edible white glitter and gold spray ( both from an out-of-date Christmas cupcake decorating set ) to make even Thelma from Big Fat Gypsy Wedding wince . Here 's the finished product . The meringue-sleeves make it impossible for Sarah to put her arms by her sides , which either gives the impression she 's well up for a dance or asking to be rescued , both of which work in terms of narrative . Sample feedback : " My tongue has gone numb . Has your tongue gone numb ? " " I wo n't eat any more because I 'm already going to be sick " . A word on budget : I 'll level with the judging panel now : I spent ? 4 on butter alone . Add to that the ? 1 doll it required and you 'll understand that had I not gone over budget you 'd now be looking at Sarah from Labyrinth drowning in a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ exists ( or did , before we fed most of it to the now-diabetic birds in our garden ) . Disqualify me all you like , but before you do , ask yourself what 's more important Mr Judge : rules or resplendent confectionary beauty ? When I took part in the Den of Geek Poundland challenge , where we built Daleks from junk , I did n't do incredibly well . I 'm not very handy and I was unprepared for the extreme lengths my competitors were willing to go to . Louisa Mellor , for example , drafted in assistance from a welder , a team of Skaroian engineers and the BBC props department . Still , I agreed to Geeks Bake Things because no matter how well I do , I end up with cake . Again , though , we 're working in an area where I 'm completely rubbish . As I 've previously covered , my only experiences with cakes are seeing Ninja Turtles on them and eating them . I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be very unpolished , but I am a good Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fan . Anyone who used to watch the old cartoon will know that the Turtles used to eat pizza with bizarre toppings , so I decided to make my cake inspired by one of them . I settled on the pizza from the season 3 episode ' Super Bebop and Mighty Rocksteady ' ; a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles marshmallow and asparagus pizza cake . I complained at my wife until she agreed to help . We already had eggs and caster sugar , but had to go shopping for the rest . I took handfuls of butter packets and jam from a restaurant so they were free . The only good baking advice I can offer you is to go somewhere with a breakfast buffet first . We went to the supermarket for the rest . I 've stretched the idea of the ? 5 budget . I tried to stay within the spirit of the challenge without having to buy a load of ingredients most of us already have at home . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for ? 5 and that you 're unlikely to want to . The recipe came from noted baker Google . We mixed the butter with the caster sugar , then mixed in the eggs . Do n't worry , apparently it 's meant to look disgusting at this point . Then we mixed the flour in a bit at a time and popped the mixture into baking trays . They went into the oven for 20 minutes where they burned , but only a bit . Once they were cool I noted that they looked a bit a thin . Er , that was the plan though , because the cake is meant to be like a pizza base , right ? The plan had also been to join them together with just jam . However , it looked a bit rubbish and so my wife made and added some out-of-competition butter cream , which we did n't budget for and is there to make it edible for us after the challenge but not visually part of contest that you should judge . We used red icing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the pizza crust . For the cheese , we used the yellow icing . I started by grating it but it was n't coming off the grater well and any attempt to knock it off glooped it together . We reasoned that cheese melts in the oven and utilised blobs to represent that . We used Haribo sour apple spaghetti ( ? 1 for the bag ) for asparagus ( you only need a couple from the pack , so you end up with basically a whole pack left to eat after , too ) , which I chopped up , and marshmallows for the marshmallows , which we singed to give that fresh from the oven look . We then added a Ninja Turtle icing hand to reach for a piece-a pizza cake . The Results Judge Simon writes ... Oh dear . It 's only fair in these challenges that , no matter how impressive the end creation , if any writer invokes the ' Wonkavision ' line in their explanation , then they 're first out the door . With regret @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ process first . Although if she 'd kindly leave her excellent-looking cake behind , it 'd be appreciated . As for Mr Edwards , the manager of his local Harvester has been in touch , reporting a man dressed in a Ninja Turtles T-shirt , removing an abnormal number of mini-butter packets from the salad bar . Likewise , after a stock check and rigorous checking of CCTV , it turned out said man had lifted 462 individual packets of raspberry jam . I naturally assured the manager of said Harvester that Mr Edwards would be disqualified from our competition , and all charges were subsequently dropped . Louisa Mellor 's quite brilliant Labyrinth recreation showed imagination , verve , quality baking and a real commitment to the spirit of the competition . Not to the rules , though .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'out of keeping' as a phrase to describe the building's relation to the area, which does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate or the required interpretations (movement/extraction or prevention).

21st September 2016 One of The Queen 's favourite architects has attacked the proposed Southborough Hub project as being ' poor ' and out of character . It comes days before the end of the period for public comment to be submitted on the project , which is costing around ? 30million . Ptolemy Dean is well known for hosting the BBC television series Restoration , which ran for six years until 2009 . He also fronted the BBC 's The Perfect Village . He criticised the decision not to incorporate any of the original Royal Victoria Hall theatre , which will be demolished to make way for the new community hub . The architect made the comments on Saturday to the hyperlocal website Southborough News . Mr Dean said : " I think it is a shame that the replacement scheme is so poor when something more thoughtful and careful might have been created that incorporated the existing building , which would have still satisfied the council 's brief , but enabled something of the old character to survive . " The town has a ' rich architectural @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the existing historic building he explained , adding the proposed design may as well be ' anywhere ' . He was particularly critical of proposals by Pick Everard -- the architectural firm behind the hub -- to clad the parts of the building above the ground floor in a lightweight translucent polycarbonate material and create a ' civic town square environment ' . Mr Dean said : " Plastic cladding is hardly much better than UPVC weatherboard , albeit a different colour . " The proposed redevelopment plan seems to create a large amount of empty public space where the present building is located -- part of which I see is labelled ' Town Square ' . " In reality , this wo n't be a town square in any real sense as the buildings contained in it are too fragmented , incoherent and insufficient to enclose the space from the constant drone of passing traffic along the A26 . " It would be better to keep and refurbish the old building and to create a better and more meaningful public space on its southern side @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ His intervention comes during the last week for public comments on the planning application for the development , which were submitted at the end of August . It will also give a significant boost to the numerous opposition groups which have sprung up since the scheme was first mooted . Southborough and High Brooms Labour Party , which said it would be submitting an objection to the planning application on the basis that the building is ' out of keeping ' with the area . It also claims there has been inadequate public engagement on the project and that advice from theatre experts and potential users of the hall has been ignored . The party also objects to what it says will be the detrimental impact on the environment from associated house building and a failure by the councils involved -- county , borough and town -- to produce a financial sustainability plan . However , a previous consultation held at the start of the year revealed 58 per cent of respondents favoured a completely new build as opposed to 29 per cent who wished to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , who is the hub 's project leader at Southborough Town Council , defended the proposed development . Mr Lester , who has run a Tunbridge Wells building firm for the last 30 years , said : " Personally I would say all architecture is conjecture and it is impossible to please everyone , but I think it is right that the design is built for the future rather than with one foot in the past . " There is a wide variety of architecture in Southborough , and the plans are there to inspire the town and lead it into the 21st century with a modern and vibrant building that will inspire people . " The hub architects , Pick Everard , declined to comment at this time . What is going in the hub ? The hub is being designed to act as a focal point for the town by incorporating a number of community facilities , some of which the three councils behind the project deem to be ' in very poor state of repair ' . Among the facilities to be included @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Council Offices New theatre Caf ? Medical centre Retail How will it be funded ? Architects Pick Everard state the overall capital costs are estimated to be around ? 30million . A large proportion of the money will be recuperated by the construction and sale of around 60 dwellings on part of the Ridgewaye playing fields behind the current Royal Victoria Hall . Other sources of income will be the private hire of the available facilities upon completion . Ptolemy Dean is a renowned architect in the field of historic preservation and the design of modern buildings which emulate their historical surroundings . Reportedly a favourite of The Queen and a regular guest of the Royal Family , Mr Dean is a graduate of the Bartlett School of Architecture at University College London , with a post-graduate degree form Edinburgh University . He is best known for his appearances on two BBC television series , Restoration and The Perfect Village . He also serves on the National Trust Architectural Panel . Mr Dean , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ live in Tunbridge Wells and now lives in Wadhurst . He said he knows the proposed hub site quite well and that his children have attended performances at Royal Victoria Hall . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'born out of wanting to work with...', which does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'born out of' is more idiomatic and does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction as defined.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks an NP object and a VP2[-ing] predicate, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a situation where someone lives out of screaming range from their nearest neighbor, which is unrelated to the transitive out of -ing construction.

We fitted ourselves with earmuffs , and one of the men , who 'd built a number of the guns himself and kept a home arsenal of at least 60 firearms , carefully showed me and the boys the safety features of each gun : touch here , never here .

I 'm Jewish and my fiance is transgender , and the whole town knows it , which is at times a comfort and at other times a liability . As a dogsledder , I regularly spend days in the wilderness , 20 or 30 miles out , and even though I know other female mushers who have been assaulted -- one was stabbed in the neck -- by strangers when they 're on the trail , the most weapon-like thing I carry is an air horn @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that it might scare a bear or cougar into leaving me alone . I am extremely liberal , and very much in favor of strict gun control . And yet , when I was scared and my neighbors helped me in the best way they knew how -- by showing up , distracting me , encouraging me to explore a limit of my own power -- I was moved beyond speech . Lately I 've been hearing a lot of words about gun owners , generally , which is to say the kind of people in the place where I live . Ignorant . Backwards . Selfish . So many arguments for gun control seem to take at their core classist assumptions about who is capable of being responsible , whose needs and fears are worth hearing out ; whose home town or weight or education level or dialect ( ' Murica , anyone ? ) makes them worthy of ridicule . Instead of mocking rural Americans for owning twice as many guns as their urban counterparts , ask why they 're afraid Instead of mocking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ urban counterparts , for thinking guns make them safer , ask why they 're really afraid . Because people like my neighbors sense the derision from those who have learned how to debate with a different vocabulary . Because they do n't have a school , or even a grocery store , and the best things around are the things they 've made for themselves , the things they 've built and protected . Because without the opportunity to hunt for food -- and yes , assault rifles are used for hunting -- they would be hard-pressed to access affordable organic meat for their families . And yes , they care about feeding their families organic meat . Because in three years of living here , I 've never seen a police car within 20 miles of my home , and when I called the sheriff last fall over a threatening trespasser , it took him three hours to show up . Because wanting the ability to physically defend yourself feels pretty darn visceral when you live out of screaming range from your nearest neighbor . My town @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I mean largely self-organizing to meet its own needs . Every summer local businesses give out 60 bicycles to schoolchildren , and every Christmas the Schoolhouse Bar acquires for each of those same children , through a muscular tackling of Black Friday sales , a backpack filled with warm clothes , school supplies , toys , and age-appropriate books . They keep careful records each year so that no child receives the same book twice . Hunting parties are intergenerational , and have in many cases stayed the same for decades ; at the end of deer season , neighbors divide their venison between themselves . When bored teens go hunting with their cousins and neighbors , they stay out of trouble . Speaking as a member of a queer household , I can say that although anti-LGBT sentiment is less coded here than it is in more affluent circles , the community is ultimately more accepting of difference : if you have to spend your lives together , you find a way to work it out . Local currency -- respect -- is earned through generosity , talent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will convince my neighbors that guns should be banned , because the greater the tragedy , the greater their desire for the means to protect themselves . Theirs is an argument of values , not statistics . But listening to them , taking their concerns seriously , understanding the needs that guns meet for them and prioritizing those needs in policy ? Now we 're talking . Deep empathy with gun owners is n't a distraction from gun control . It 's a prerequisite for implementing it successfully . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and the phrase 'out of bringing positivity to a negative environment' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the means by which the subject has made a career, which is not the intended meaning of the transitive out of -ing construction.

stand in Mexico 's capital of violence against women
On average more than one woman per week is killed in Ecatepec , on the outer edge of Mexico City . But despite living with this constant threat of brutality , local female hip-hop artists are using their music to try to change attitudes As darkness descends over the imposing green mountains on the outskirts of Mexico City , Luz Reality , a 32-year-old rapper , steps under a faded orange tarp and through a metal security door into the underground venue . Though a veteran of the city 's hip-hop scene , she admits she still gets unnerved by the constant threat of assault in the areas around Ecatepec 's clandestine concert venues . In recent months , this barrio has been plagued by a grisly series of abductions and murders . In one case , a woman was found burned on an empty patch of grass . The victim somehow survived the brutal attack and was still alive when police found her , but died later from her injuries . As is almost always the case in Ecatepec , the murder went unsolved . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ -- but lately the neighbourhood has been on edge . Frustrated with the violence , residents have banded together to beat and publicly shame alleged criminals on several occasions . Tonight , Luz could n't even find a taxi driver willing to drop her off at the venue for her show : an empty Ecatepec lot . She had to walk from the main avenue down desolate streets where kidnappings can happen unnoticed . The neighbourhood has become regarded as Mexico 's " capital of violence against women " . Luz knows the stories about women disappearing , but tries not to let fear limit her life . Since 2012 , on average more than one woman has been killed every week in Ecatepec , and last year this violence escalated . The dynamic is similar to what happened in in the northern border city of Ciudad Ju ? rez , just south of the Texas border , in the early 1990s . Earlier this month a Spanish woman was kidnapped from a wealthy area of the city , killed and dumped in a canal in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fewer than 3,604 women were killed in the state of Mexico , where Ecatepec is located . It 's an alarming trend -- yet each individual murder is just another statistic that barely gets mentioned in the capital 's biggest newspapers . Not formally part of Mexico City , Ecatepec is a residential area that has grown in fits and bursts . A generation of people from the countryside came to settle here in the 1980s and 90s , trying to carve a niche for themselves on the fringe of Mexico 's rapidly transforming , globalised economy . The streets surrounding the venue hosting Luz and her friends tonight are a shabby agglomeration of dull-grey cinderblock buildings , most of which were improvised one storey at a time . In contrast , the rappers look like fireworks of fluorescent pink and purple , their gold watches and neon attire shimmering over the sea of cement . With the bass beat thumping , Luz psyches herself up for her performance . She eyes a cadre of teenagers in t-shirts holding plastic cups of beer and Buchanan 's whisky @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in front of the small , second-storey stage . The crowd is young and riled up . In the back corner , a few scruffy men cut up lines of cocaine on a cell-phone . Inside the cement-block walls , the thumping music creates a warm refuge from the world outside . I was proud of Ecatepec . But now , if I had the chance to leave , I would . I do n't see a future here . Luz Reality " We 're women and we deserve respect ! " Luz shouts into her microphone . One of Mexico 's best-established female rappers , she has made a career out of bringing positivity to a negative environment . As she steps out to join her three rapper friends in the centre of the second-floor stage , Alix Toxik ( Luz 's skinny , ebullient group-mate ) grabs the microphone and shouts : " Ladies In Tha Hood in the casa ! " Alix 's beet-red hair and gold chains dance as if they are pulsating with an electric current . Then Luz steps @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " In Mexico there are a lot of femicidios so this song is called For My Girls . " As a manic , minimalist beat streams out of the DJ 's speakers , Maya La Insana , Luz 's heavyset partner in rhyme , bobs her head and unleashes a rapid-fire volley of lyrics : " I do n't deal with fiction , just the truth . We listen and we stay quiet . It 's better to run your mouth ... Where are the people who want to criticise me ? The people who want to finish me off ? " In the crowd , a menacing , broad-shouldered man in black clothes and sun-glasses holds up his smart phone to take video , while a group of teenage boys rises from their refuge along the cement wall to watch the performance . To the side of the stage , Luz and Alix dance frenetically to the energetic beat , jumping up to rap in unison for the song 's chorus : " I still help my girls in the street ; I still help my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are seen in front of a cross outside the Municipal Palace of Ecatepec during a protest against the murders of women . Photograph : Anadolu Agency/Getty Images Even with a few technical difficulties , the show is a welcome respite from what has been a difficult period in Ecatepec . A few weeks earlier , an entire family was dismembered and stuffed into bags in the railyard that runs through the neighbourhood . In another incident , two policemen were killed during their lunch break . For 20 years , though , rap has helped Luz process the world around her . She first heard about it as a teen in the early 1990s . Her friends ' families came from different parts of Mexico , so hip-hop became the common chord that tied them together . **** Ecatepec exploded as a byproduct of Mexico 's shift from a corrupt , state-led development strategy based on protectionism and nepotism to the current paradigm of neoliberal economic policy and export promotion . Subsidies that had supported small-time agriculture were dismantled , so poor , rural residents flooded @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . As Mexico 's economy dipped into crisis and nearly collapsed , the newcomers found themselves in a precarious position . Families built small shacks using found materials and the neighbourhood expanded up into the hills . In 1995 Mexico 's economy imploded , leaving hundreds of thousands of workers competing for jobs in the informal economy -- hawking sodas at stoplights , selling tacos from carts or working as foot soldiers in Mexico City 's expanding criminal enterprises . As kidnappings surged to unprecedented levels and every day was marked by multiple homicides , it became known as the world 's most dangerous city . In this environment , Luz and her friends learned to navigate the streets , shopping for hip-hop cassettes at open-air markets called tianguis and finding solace in the bravado of early-90s gangster rap . Cypress Hill were Luz 's favourite group ; the lyrics helped her take ownership over a difficult environment . Where I 'm from , the guns be smoking / I 'll be damned if you think I 'm jokin ' / Know that I 'll come with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is a Cypress Hill verse that was written about LA , but also reflected the mentality in Ecatepec . Luz was inspired ; she started penning her own raps to Cypress Hill beats , but tried to find a way to forge her own version . " We 're not chicanas Mexican-Americans , " she explains . As the decades passed , families have replaced cardboard and sheet metal with sturdy cement bricks and added multiple storeys to their homes . In a parallel trend , Mexico City has seen a boom of real-estate investment and a new wave of renovation . Now the city centre is filled with the hulking skeletons of new skyscrapers , and upper-middle class neighbourhoods are enjoying a surge of new construction and rehabilitation . As infrastructure and security have improved , Mexico City has become recognised as a major hub of cultural activity . The New York Times named the capital as the top place to visit in 2016 . Luz Reality stands next to graffiti on the outskirts of Mexico City . Photograph : Nathaniel Parish Flannery " Now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Luz explains . " Most people go to Mexico City to work ; they do n't work here . " The US Chamber of Commerce in Mexico ranks Ecatepec as the second most challenging security environment for businesses in the country . According to this analysis , the suburb trails only Reynosa , Tamaulipas -- the border city that serves as a base for the notorious Zeta cartel -- in terms of security problems . Ecatepec has evolved since the early 90s , but in many ways it has n't improved . " Even though there are malls now , they do n't help . It 's ugly and violent , and is no place to raise kids , " Luz says . " I was proud of Ecatepec . But now , if I had the chance to leave , I would . I do n't see a future here , " she says . After 7pm you do n't go out . Not in car , walking , or in taxi Luz Reality A number of multinational companies have built new @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ any of them . " The shifts are long and pay is low . To work you have to go to Mexico City or find self-employment selling things at the markets , " she says . After she saw a female colleague get kidnapped , Luz left a job teaching kindergarten for a post at a small stationery store near the main plaza . While she has friends who have found jobs in IT and marketing departments in the steel and glass skyscrapers downtown , Luz herself -- like nearly 60% of the women in Ecaptepec -- works in the sprawling , informal economy , in a job that does n't include benefits . Ecatepec is now home to 1.6 million people , more than half of whom live below the poverty line . Too many aspects of life here still feel improvised and incomplete . There may police patrols on the wide throughways , but on the side streets security is scarce . Luz pulls on a pair of headphones while recording a rap video in the main plaza in Ecatepec . Photograph : Nathaniel Parish @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ meets up with bandmates Alix and Maya at a pizza place . The women have broken their self-imposed curfew to have a celebratory dinner to mark the end of a successful day recording a video . In the afternoon , they revel in the activity in the bustling square , rapping to the camera in the golden afternoon light . The plaza brings together old men who have spent decades working in the fields with young parents taking their toddlers to watch the clowns , with teens on BMX bikes and skateboards . As is the case in small towns in the mountains , Ecatepec 's main plaza is the centre of community life : " It 's representative of Ecaptec 's culture . You 've got the skaters , the rappers , the B-boys , " Luz explains . As night sets in , Luz and her band-mates bounce in front of big graffiti murals down the street from Luz 's house , using a friend 's car headlights to illuminate the last few shots of the day . With the camera off , the swagger subsides @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are made of heavy steel bars that look strong enough to stop a truck from crashing through . Although a few people gather at a nearby taco restaurant and a food truck still stands down the road , mostly the streets are empty . Luz ties Ecatepec 's hip-hop culture to the cholo culture popularised by Mexican-Americans in early-90s California , Cypress Hill among them . She and the rest of her generation are still wedded to these traditions of DJing , rapping , graffiti art , and breakdancing . But she fears the neighbourhood 's younger generation is more tuned in rapping as a form of aggression -- notably in rap battles -- and , worse , as an ancillary activity to drug dealing . The younger rappers are less interested in painting murals or organising dance competitions and far keener to embrace criminal culture . Waiting for her pizza to arrive , Luz explains : " What I want is young people to know me . I think there are fewer rappers , fewer graffiti artists now . " She sees her neighbourhood 's cholo @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ she says . The hard-edged bravado of the new generation may be more in tune with the current reality of Ecatepec , where drug gangs recruit teens and local mob bosses have turned the neighbourhood into a depot for the retail narco trade . The crime wave has overrun the local police and created a new environment of violence and impunity . " It 's changed a lot . Before it was safe , now it 's the most dangerous municipality in Mexico state . It 's the worst place in Mexico for femicidios , " Luz explains . On 7 August , the body of a young woman was found near a canal in the nearby town of Zumpango . The victim had been raped and tortured . " There 's a lot of gender-based violence . I think it 's getting worse , " Luz says . **** The pizza parlour is empty and playing loud banda music , but Alix , usually so exuberant , lowers her voice : " As a woman , when I have to go to the R ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I have amigas who live there . They say that girls coming out of the subway there get kidnapped and taken away in cars . They disappear . " The subway stop is next to a highway and few tarp-covered stands selling bootleg CDs . From the stairs that lead down from the train tracks , visitors can see a long expanse of cement buildings and only a few patches of green in the distance . " It takes a lot of risk to go on the road , " says Luz softly . " They 've taken a lot of women . " The attacks on women have been well documented by the local tabloids . In December 2015 , police discovered the body of a 20-year-old , raped , and beaten to death in an empty lot in Ecatepec . In March , 2016 one of Ecatepec 's own police officers fled town after torturing and killing his own girlfriend . An activist wearing rubbish bags and rope , to replicate the way female murder victims are found , takes part in a protest @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ often wash up . Photograph : Nathaniel Parish Flannery She lives in a gated community with a guard who watches through a heavy metal gate . Inside , residents have built fences to separate their houses from the street , some girded with razor wire . Outside of her neighbourhood , Luz feels unsafe : " After 7pm you do n't go out . Not in car , walking , or in taxi , " she says . " You can go to the supermarket and the taxi driver will rob you . " Her brother was carjacked right in front of the security post at the entrance to her neighbourhood . " They put a gun on him and took everything he had , even his gum , " Luz explains . But she continues to grind , penning lyrics and recording videos . One of her new songs , I 'm Still On My Feet , sums up her attitude . Over a bouncing , bass-driven beat she raps : " After everything I 've been through , I 'm still on my feet . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ She tries to stay positive but the situation in Ecatepec is heart-breaking : " Now it 's worse . There are more femicidios than Ciudad Ju ? rez , more kidnappings . " . In some cases , the violence is meted out by partners and ex-partners . In others it 's organised crime , kidnapping women to force them to work in the sex trade . Other times random assaults are carried out by gangsters in a realm of impunity . On 4 September , infuriated residents banded together and cornered two thieves , beating them severely before police arrived . Luz knows that many neighbourhoods now hang signs warning would-be criminals that burglars will be lynched . The vigilantism does n't make her feel safer . When she 's home , inside her house , behind the security gate at the entrance to the street , Luz feels safer Ecatepec is her cradle , but also her prison . " It 's stagnating -- I think it will get worse . It 's like love-hate : I was born here , but I 'd like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ grow up here . " Luz is n't the only local artist trying to draw attention to the violence in Ecatepec . A few weeks earlier , a group of activists had staged a demonstration by the murky Remedios River that cuts through the neighbourhood . Wearing trash bags around their bodies and rope around their arms ( the accoutrements routinely found tied to corpses that wash up on the river 's shore ) , they shouted in protest : " The river has become a watery grave ! " " Women are kidnapped and left here in trash bags ! " " Ecatepec is a tomb ! " Meanwhile the traffic zoomed by on the freeway next to the canal , truck drivers honking as they passed , drowning out the women 's voices . Then a police car stopped on the side of the highway . An officer walked up to the demonstration , took a few pictures on his cell phone , and walked back down the hill to his car . " There are thousands of women who have disappeared . We @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The officer did n't respond . |

Reasoning
×
The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('mother has blamed a 'despicable coward' eye witness who pulled out of giving evidence'). It involves a prevention interpretation, where the eye witness is prevented from giving evidence. The verb 'pulled' can be classified under exerting force or pressure, and the NP object 'eye witness' functions as a causee. Therefore, it is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Scarlett Keeling 's ... mother has blamed a ' despicable coward ' eye witness who pulled out of giving evidence ' at the last minute ' for the not guilty verdict over her daughter 's death . The bruised body of 15-year-old Scarlett was found on the popular Anjuna beach in the north of the small Indian tourist state of Goa . Samson D'Souza , 36 , and Placido Carvalho , 47 , were today both cleared of plying her with drugs , raping her and leaving her unconscious on the beach where she subsequently drowned . As the investigation into the death got underway , a key witness , Briton Michael Mannion , known as ' Masala Mike ' initially spoke of seeing D'Souza lying on top of Ms Keeling on the beach shortly before she died . But in a press conference in Goa today , Ms Keeling 's mother Fiona MacKeown said Mr Mannion had ' pulled out ' of testifying ' at the last minute ' and that she now held the London carpenter ' partially responsible for this lack of a guilty verdict ' .

' Somebody murdered my daughter in this country and someone needs to be held accountable . I 'm devastated and shocked . ' We thought justice would finally be done , but it has n't .

Michael Mannion from Brighton previously claimed to have seen one of the two men who were accused of raping and leaving Scarlett Keeling for dead on a beach at the scene of the crime on the night of her death in 2008 . He failed to return to Goa this summer for the trial after a nervous breakdown and his statements were scrapped as inadmissible . Mr Mannion , 44 , was staying with D'Sousa in Goa on Valentine 's Day eight years ago - the night Scarlett was killed . Michael Mannion from Brighton previously claimed to have seen one of the two men who were accused of raping and leaving Scarlett Keeling for dead on a beach at the scene of the crime on the night of her death in 2008 In an interview with The Telegraph , her mother Fiona Mackeown , 52 , said : ' I have seen Michael 's statements . ' But they are not admissible because they were not taken in front @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ go and all was set . ' He said he saw one of them taking a pill and giving a pill ' to the girl ' . ' He saw him lining up lines of cocaine . ' But after discussing the case publicly over the years , Mannion had now suffered a nervous breakdown over the killing and had been given a medical exemption from testifying but would not comment about the case to The Sun . ' Eight years I 've been involved in this , ' Mannion told the paper . ' Who was there for me when I needed help ? ' Fiona MacKeown ( pictured ) had been warned the odds of a conviction had been dealt a huge blow after a key British witness failed to take the stand with what she called ' watertight evidence ' Mannion 's involvement in the case has been troubled including facing a travel ban by India from returning to Britain in the weeks after the death as he attempted to care for his sick father . ' I 'm @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , I would n't be here , ' he had said in April 2008 . ' It 's causing immense stress on my family and personally I 'm becoming a bit depressed by the whole thing .

' He was initially scared about going to the police with this information in case it got him into trouble . Now they have placed this circular on him , which effectively means he can not leave . ' He is feeling devastated . He does n't know what to do . All he wanted was to help the course of justice , he has lost all confidence in the police here .

The men had been charged with culpable homicide not amounting to murder , using force with intent to outrage a woman 's modesty and of administering drugs with intent to harm . They had earlier been told they faced life in prison if found guilty . Ms MacKeown looked anxious before the afternoon hearing inside the small courtroom filled with over fifty journalists . Samson D'Souza ( left ) and Placido Carvalho ( right ) were charged with culpable homicide not amounting to murder , using force with intent to outrage a woman 's modesty and of administering drugs with intent to harm Fiona MacKeown ( pictured outside court today ) said she was ' devastated and shocked ' by he verdict Scarlett Keeling 's mother ( pictured ) insisted her legal team will file an appeal in the High Court Speaking after the verdict , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ judicial system , had let her down . Her daughter Scarlett Keeling is pitured right As the judge started giving her verdict , Ms MacKeown , who listened to her with rapt attention just yards from the accused then looked shell shocked as she realised the result . The two men listened intently and then thanked the judge as , smiling broadly , they bowed and swiftly left the court . Carvalho , who was acquitted of all the charges , said after the verdict : ' There was nothing in the case . We were being framed . ' Defence lawyer Marvin D'Souza said : ' There was no evidence against my client from the beginning , the CBI were just going ahead without any evidence . ' If the CBI decide to take the matter up to the High Court , we will see what legal options we have . ' But Ms MacKeown 's lawyer , Vikram Verma , said the criminal justice system had ' failed ' . He said : ' It is for the CBI to decide @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ injuries , coke , eyewitness and forensic supports this . But according to the verdict , no-one killed her , hurt her or gave her cocaine . ' The job of the investigation agency is to find out who has done it and to present evidence to support their case . ' The present criminal justice system has failed . ' The death of the teenager , from Bideford in Devon , became international news , shining a spotlight on the seedy side of the resort destination and also drawing attention to India 's sluggish justice system . Police initially dismissed Ms Keeling 's death as an accidental drowning but opened a murder investigation after her mother pushed for a second autopsy which proved she had been drugged and raped . It showed that Ms Keeling had suffered more than 50 injuries to her body . The trial began in 2010 but has been dogged by numerous delays , including hearings of just one afternoon a month due to a backlog of cases and a public prosecutor withdrawing from proceedings .

He had initially spoken of seeing D'Souza lying on top of Ms Keeling on the beach shortly before she died . MacKeown and her family were on a six-month holiday to India when she , Ms Keeling and her other daughters went on an excursion to the southern state of Karnataka , but Ms Keeling later returned alone to attend a party .

Police alleged that D'Souza and Carvalho @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ drugs , including cocaine , before sexually assaulting her and leaving her to die by dumping her unconscious in shallow water where she drowned . They denied all of the charges , claiming that the teenager died an accidental death after taking drugs of her own volition . After the hearing , Ms MacKeown lashed out at the investigation and in a press conference , called the local police ' corrupt ' . ' The medical evidence confirms that my daughter Scarlett was grievously assaulted , raped and murdered after some criminals gave her alcohol and cocaine . MacKeown and her family were on a six-month holiday to India when she , Ms Keeling and her other daughters went on an excursion to the southern state of Karnataka , but Ms Keeling later returned alone to attend a party ' Right from the beginning I knew that the local police did not want to prosecute the killers .

' I can only say that if international tourists come to Goa and are murdered they have no hope that justice ( will be done ) in this system . ' I do n't believe there has ever been justice for a murdered tourist in this country . ' ' The criminal justice system protects the criminals and not the tourists . ' She also called on the judge to make public her reasons for acquitting the men . ' I 'd really like to see the judgment . I 'd like to see what the judge has to say for herself . ' I 'd really like to see her reasons for acquitting them on everything after the statements clearly said we know about the drugs - so many witnesses said about the drugs I thought she 'd have at least charged them with that . Ms MacKeown ( pictured speaking to the press in 2010 ) described @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' I ca n't begin to imagine where she was coming from to acquit them of all charges . ' I want to see her judgment and I want to scrutinise it and then I 'm going to show it to the whole world so it better be good . ' Before the hearing , Ms MacKeown described the delays in the case as a ' nightmare ' . She told Sky News : ' It 's a parent 's worst nightmare , it 's bad enough to lose a child to murder without it being dragged out for so long , have the police lie about the whole incident to start with and they tried to rubbish me and Scarlett . ' It 's been horrible , I would not wish it on anyone . ' I think it 's been delaying tactics - I think they hoped I would get tired and get fed up of waiting or I would not come back . They were wrong . ' Ms MacKeown described her daughter as ' just a normal teenage girl @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ programme : ' She wanted to be more grown up than she was . She was happy and lively and used to sing at the top of her voice through the supermarket . ' She played saxophone and she was going to join a band . She used to ride the horses a lot - we had horses and she loved that . She used to swim - all of us used to get into the sea in Cornwall and swim . She was active and strong and healthy . ' Ms MacKeown also said that she would always ' regret ' allowing her daughter to go to the Valentine 's Day beach party . ' Mostly people do n't know the facts when they say I left her on the beach on her own or with her 29-year-old boyfriend . He was n't her boyfriend and I did n't leave her on her own . They do n't know the facts and I try not to take what they say personally . ' Obviously I will regret that decision for the rest of my life @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wish more than anything that I 'd said no and kept her with us but I ca n't change the past . I just have to accept it and get on . ' |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate.

Be scared -- the Chuckle Brothers have NOT ruled themselves out of presenting The Great British Bake Off when it moves to Channel 4 . The TV duo found themselves thrown into the media storm surrounding the hit show when they were tipped to replace exiting hosts Sue Perkins and Mel Geidroyc . Millions remember Barry and Paul Chuckle from CBBC 's ChuckleVision , who 's catchphrase ' To me , to you ' can still be heard around the country whenever anyone needs to move a piece of furniture . They famously bungled every simple task they attempted on their sitcom , so could they really handle a Tarte Tatin ? None of these people have as strong a moustache game as The Chuckle Brothers ( Picture BBC ) Rumours that the Chuckles were taking up the Bake Off aprons were rife on social media , forcing the pair to make a statement on today 's Good Morning Britain . They said : ' We normally like to keep things confidential , but as this rumour is out on social @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't deny or confirm that we have been approached to host The Bake Off ! ' Then they added , cheekily : ' However we do know a lot about custard creams , cakes and biscuits . ' The bookies , however , are a little dubious , placing the odds of The Chuckles presenting the show at a massive 500/1 . Thank God for that . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', where 'receiving Cookies' is a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

It is nearly 500 years since Berwick Castle was finally abandoned , a crumbling relic of the wars between England and Scotland that saw the town change hands on 13 occasions .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', which is a different construction where 'opt out of' is followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks the necessary NP object and does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' followed by a gerund phrase 'receiving Cookies', which does not involve a causer and causee relationship or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Moult hit four ... the previous weekend against Hamilton to take his season tally to seven in 210 minutes of action , but the striker struggled to make an impact , along with the rest of his team-mates , in the first half at Firhill .

With 30 years of experience tucked tightly under our belt , the success of the 2016 FIM Motocross of Nations presented by Fiat Professional on the nostalgic hills of Maggiora Park was a mesmerizing spectacle of what has been achieved in our beloved sport thus far . The enormous , passionate and boisterous crowd has rewritten the handbook of fan etiquette with their non-stop flag waving , chain saw revving , air horn blowing , chanting , singing , and cheering that contributed to this years ' motocross of nations being as hair-raising , memorable and emotionally charged as it was . It has been a while since the Chamberlain Trophy was so tightly contested . In the final race of the day the ' Nations Result ' board shuffled between The USA , France and The Netherlands , with USA being one man down after a mind boggling scenario sidelined their best performer of the weekend Jason Anderson immediately after he won Race Two , and also with the defending champions , Team France , being buried at turn one . Meanwhile , The Netherlands had a high-powered start @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Herlings and Glenn Coldenhoff , inside the top three . The Netherlands led the initial stages of the race , but as Coldenhoff faded and Webb propelled forward , The USA took over at the top . Team France had their work cut out for them , but Febvre is never one to shy away from a challenge and eventually caught Webb and put him on the front line for Team USA . Both riders engaged in a titanic battle , which raged on ' til the moment Webb got cross-rutted and tipped over . With Webb losing a few spots The Netherlands leapt to the top of the board once more , and with one lap to go they were right on the cusp of claiming their first ever MXoN title before Febvre spoiled everything when he passed Tommy Searle for the vital 1 point that was required for Team France to defend the cup . Team France won the Motocross of Nations for the first time in 2001 in Namur , Belgium with Yves Demaria , Luigy Segy and David Vuillemin , and they did n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Gautier Paulin , Dylan Ferrandis and Steven Frossard silenced the haters with their emphatic win . Since 2014 , France is yet to be beaten , and their trail blaze continued in sensational style today around this spectacular hillside circuit , in a cauldron-like atmosphere that we have become accustomed to at the MXON . MXGP-MX2The Netherlands did n't only have one Bullet in their gun this weekend ; Glenn Coldenhoff was also lethal as he led Italy 's own Antonio Cairoli around turn one . Febvre , who was fifth around the first turn , lost his nerve on lap two and passed Australia 's Todd Waters before pressuring Canada 's Kaven Benoit into a small mistake to take third place . On the third lap , the Italian erupted as Cairoli ripped up the inside of Coldenhoff to take the lead down the start straight . The following lap , Febvre , who was riding like a man possessed , carried a serious amount of momentum right around the outside of Coldenhoff for second , before putting the exact same move on Cairoli a few laps @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ violent as he set fast lap after fast lap , and came out of nowhere to pass Coldenhoff for third at the midway mark . Meanwhile Team USA 's Cooper Webb was also on a diehard mission to claw back spots way after starting outside of the top twenty . The American attacked the track fearlessly , yet with an incredible amount of control as he put an effortless pass on Coldenhoff for fourth with less than five minutes to go . At the checkers , the fans roared for their hero Antonio Cairoli as he crossed the line in second place behind Romain Febvre , who took his third consecutive MXoN race win if we count the two he took last year in front of his home crowd in France . Belgium 's Kevin Strijbos put in an incredible ride for third ahead of USA 's Cooper Webb , while another Belgian in the form of Jeremy Van Horebeek rounded out the top five and was the best placed MX2 rider . MX2-OpenA good start could n't have come at a better time for Team USA . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Tonus , France 's Gautier Paulin and Holland 's Jeffrey Herlings . Herlings does n't do anything slowly , and he slung shot past Paulin before the end of lap one and squeezed Tonus on lap two which put him in second place before the end of lap one . Behind Paulin , Evgeny Bobryshev made Russia 's presence noticeable when he ran hot up the inside of Paulin and almost T-boned him before dropping off the pace . Australia 's Dean Ferris nipped by the Russian who ended up crashing mid-moto in the same dip that caught Cairoli out in the Qualifying Race yesterday . Meanwhile , Herlings set the fastest lap of the race on lap five and was taking sizeable chunks out of Andersons lead . Herlings showed Anderson a wheel on a couple of occasions before he lost his mind in frustration and slipped into his smaller bike habits where he could hammer the throttle and get away with it . This time he did n't save it ; he got too hard on the gas , lost traction and high-sided . Fortunately he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , although the next three riders did catch him . With five minutes to go , Herlings , Tonus , Paulin and Ferris put on a breath-taking exhibition of close combat racing as they rode wheel to wheel and ' bar to ' bar . Ferris managed to pass Paulin at one point but a gust of wind caught the Frenchman 's sails , and he passed Ferris back before passing Tonus half of a lap later as well . Meanwhile , the MX2 riders had crept in on the action and with three laps to go ' the Jeremys ' , Belgium 's Jeremy Van Horebeek and Switzerland 's Jeremy Seewer , who were split by Great Britain 's Shaun Simpson , had Tonus and Ferris in their sights . As is the intense racing was n't hard enough on the old ticker , hearts were stopped when the race winner , Anderson , was landed on while celebrating .

Belgium 's Kevin Strijbos looked better than ever today . Yes , he did win his home grand prix , the MXGP of Belgium , but that was just a mega result on paper . Today , Strijbos was physically riding superb ! As Coldenhoff faded and dimmed The Netherlands chances at hoisting the Chamberlain Cup in the air for the first time in the history of The Nations , Cairoli caught Herlings for a brief challenge , but all it did was tease the boisterous crowd as Herlings sensed he was there and hooked yet another gear to win relatively easily .

At that point , USA had the lead in the overall standings ahead of The Netherlands and France , but then Webb threw it away when he got cross-rutted and fell .

The Netherlands ' Jeffrey Herlings was tenacious in his efforts to stretch out a lead for his second ever MXoN race win . The first one was in Lommel back in 2012 , which he won in similar fashion when he took the holeshot and checked out . Cairoli cruised home for second place ahead of Strijbos , Febvre and Searle .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Therefore, it does not qualify as an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Through two World Wars and five monarchs , the pages have been filled with articles and information keeping readers up to date with what is happening in this area , and in the early days across the nation and even the world . We take this opportunity to look back at the paper 's history ... In the year 1856 , the Crimean War ended , the Victoria Cross was instituted , Livingstone returned to England - and , on September 20 , the first edition of the Market Rasen Mail was published . Priced at one penny , that first issue was jam-packed full of news and adverts from local traders eager to make use of the town 's new weekly paper . Adverts for dispensing chemists , harmonium tuners , family grocers and umbrella makers rubbed shoulders with testimonies from locals who had been helped by such miraculous cures as Page Woodcock 's Wind Pills - the relief he experienced was ' most wonderful ' . The front page was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , with other news including a disgraceful scene in Caistor , sheep stealing at Binbrook , improvements at the gas works and local potato crops being threatened with disease . It would be this mix of information , agricultural news and good local stories that would sustain the Rasen Mail through the years . The Market Rasen Weekly Mail and Lincolnshire Advertiser was founded by Walesby farmer Richard Hackett , who also ran the business of printer , engraver , bookseller and paper-hanger in Waterloo Street . In the days before wireless and television , the weekly paper was a source of information and entertainment . Pre-printed general interest pages were sent by train from London for insertion in the Mail . These included national and international news , together with serialised books , handy hints for young ladies and advice on poultry-keeping . In 1870 , Hackett sold out to Thomas Hulme Whittingham , an outspoken man who would nowadays fall foul of libel laws , but who was at that time a delight to his readers . In 1905 , Thomas Benson @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of editor and in 1915 he was admitted into partnership - Whittingham & Baty Ltd was born . A few years later , in 1918 , a young Tealby man was to become involved with the paper , an association which further down the line was to have a monumental effect . Charles Edward ( Teddy ) Sharpe became a typesetter at the Mail , a job he said , in later years , gave him literally a feel for English . However , he was not content just to set other people 's words and soon dabbled in reporting , returning to the Mail office to set his own copy . He became a full time freelance reporter , supplying regional and national papers with news from the Rasen area . In 1947 , Whittingham & Baty Ltd , including the Mail , went up for sale and Teddy Sharpe took the opportunity to buy the business that set him on his journalistic path .

Printing of both papers then moved to Horncastle , later to be joined by the Louth Leader and other newspapers which would join the Lincolnshire Independent Newspapers group .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses the phrase 'out of nothing' which is a prepositional phrase modifying 'make something', and there is no VP[-ing] predicate involved. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

Creatively driven brands must be prepared to take a step into the unknown . Pete Jeavons , EE Added 22 hours ago How long ? 2-3 minutes It has been an incredibly exciting few weeks for EE , during which we launched the second series of the EE Wembley Cup . The YouTube footballing series , where we pitch the game 's biggest stars against each other , is one of the biggest and the most ambitious digital activations we 've embarked on . Fortunately , it was a great success and I 'm now looking back on what we can learn from it and how we can apply this to our future work . Any project like this demands a level of bravery and an enormous amount of collaboration to be a success . That 's not to say that to collaborate successfully you have to be brave . But you do need to clearly recognise the unknowns of any ambitious idea and then assemble a team who can take on that challenge . The continual objective is how to mitigate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ collaborate effectively . Of course , risk is at the heart of creativity . To make something out of nothing -- whether you 're a brand marketer , entrepreneur , film-maker , designer , developer or writer -- is an inherently risky challenge . But as Mark Zuckerberg famously said : " The biggest risk is not taking any risk . In a world that 's changing really quickly , the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks . " What this illustrates is the need for processes to manage creative risk effectively . To manage the creative risk on the Wembley Cup , we followed a " minimum viable product " process to some extent . Wembley Cup season one was the proof of concept that matured over time and with incremental developments to become Wembley Cup season two -- a bona fide entertainment format . This whole process has inspired me to dive deeper into digital entertainment platforms and creative technologies , specifically those with mobile video at their heart . So what is next ? How can we tell rich @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is the future of mobile video and how can we be up close and personal with our audiences ? Well , the obvious place to begin is where entertainment blurs with reality in a world of virtual or augmented personal experiences . Google Maps is maturing rapidly from a must-have mobile service to an entertainment destination . Trek now allows you to take a Street View journey to sites of cultural , geographical and historical significance with a social layer that invites greater engagement with this rich content . This is a maturing service platform that is offering far more to end users and potential partners . More embryonic services that are moving on from beyond the proof of concept are Google 's Tango augmented-reality environment and DayDream , the virtual-reality platform . I 'd love to collaborate on these initiatives -- what could the next iteration of EE 's Wembley app be like with an AR layer and how could the Bafta Awards be brought to life with a live VR experience ? Of course , it 's not all about Google -- Facebook has made @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are now surfacing . The Oculus Rift headset and peripherals are now readily available and alongside this a portfolio of growing content and applications . Also , Henry , a charming animated VR film from Oculus Story Studio , is the first VR original narrative movie to win an Emmy . This is certainly a precursor of things to come . But as Ramiro Lopez Dau , director of Henry , explains , the creative process was loaded with risk and unknowns : " It was a step into the unknown world of making an emotional VR movie . While we did n't know what the outcome was going to be , we were excited about the possibilities . " I 'm really interested in these possibilities . How can we , for example , learn from this to drop our audiences into the world of sport with our BT parent ? Could we work with handset manufacturers to produce unique mobile content experiences and are there new ways of developing retail experiences ? With limitless opportunities , there are also limitless things that can go wrong @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ embarked on as a creative journey with collaborators we love to work with , we learn from and who allow me to sleep easily at night . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'out of paying people very little to work' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, and the NP object 'a lot of money' does not function as a causee. Instead, it describes a means of making money, which is not consistent with the construction's properties.

Stubbs was in ... of losing his job and made no pretence otherwise in the approach to this game . His chairman Tony Stewart showed last season , in sacking Neil Redfearn and summoning Neil Warnock , that he is prepared to scrap long-term plans for the troubleshooter route to keep Rotherham in the Championship . Warnock would be unlikely to answer the call this time , having achieved a miraculous escape from relegation , but that would n't deter Stewart from acting . Former Wolves boss Kenny Jackett is rumoured to be one leading possibility . Oddly in the circumstances , Rotherham had scored only one goal fewer than Huddersfield , despite trailing their Yorkshire rivals by nearly the length of the division . Also curiously , the Terriers had mustered the fewest number of shots in the Championship . But their 11 goals before this game had gone a lot further than Rotherham 's 10 - mainly because they had conceded only seven compared to the Millers ' 22 . And no team in any division had recorded fewer shots on target ( 28 ) than Rotherham this season . Terriers top scorer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on 2mins Tom Adeyemi of Rotherham heads wide during the midweek clash at John Smith 's Stadium Former Sunderland midfielder Dean Whitehead is cautioned by the referee Here they were on the back foot from the start , behind inside two minutes . The recalled Sean Scannell crossed from the right and the resulting pinball , with defenders failing to clear , saw Elias Kachunga react quickly to pop past Lee Camp . Nahki Wells fired just wide as Huddersfield threatened further goals . But Rotherham found a goal out of nothing - and it had the curiosity value of Danny Ward besting Danny Ward . The Rotherham striker and Huddersfield keeper are not related . And the keeper was also at a loss for any sort of connection as Ward , the forward , beat him with a deft first-time contact to Jon Taylor 's cross . But the Terriers tore straight back in front . Again Scannell was the provider and Wells scored off the inside of a post with a shot on the run .

' We were excellent in the first half but a bit sloppy in the final third , ' he said . Rotherham are still without a point on the road - and return home to find Newcastle in wait on Saturday . Stubbs said : ' We started badly but grew into the game and showed some character . ' |

has shared his inspiring story in hopes of raising awareness of mental health in men as part of city wide campaign ' Get Active ' .

" The best thing you can do if you 're experiencing mental health problems is to voice what is happening to you . It 'll make you feel that you 're not isolated and you 're not battling it alone . " The Men 's Network in Exeter is a social group where men meet in a very informal way for a chat and a coffee .

Josh has been volunteering with the network for a number of years , yet he 's still only young .

He said : " The most terrifying thing was that I did n't understand what was happening to me . I 'd wake up every morning on edge and it would stay with me throughout the day . It was very tiring being on edge all the time , yet I found it difficult to sleep . " Josh said that he found it nerve wracking to be in big groups of people and that he lost weight .

That advice has really been my saviour . " It sounds strange but I tried a horse riding lesson so that I could do something outdoors . This turned into lessons once a week . " Since depression and anxiety changed Josh 's life , he has had the desire to help other people in a similar situation to himself . He added : " I definitely feel as if I have got more out of volunteering for the men 's network than I have put in . It has been a brilliant experience .

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. The NP subject is 'South Korean footballers', the V1 is 'play', the NP object is 'their way', and the VP2[-ing] predicate is 'fighting for their country'. The sentence can be interpreted with a prevention interpretation, meaning that by playing, the footballers can prevent themselves from having to fight for their country. Additionally, the NP object 'their way' is a possessive way NP object, which is an atypical but acceptable type of NP object in this construction, as it is coreferential with the subject 'South Korean footballers'.

Why is it , then , that as the years creep on for the 24-year-old and he transcends to the peak of his powers his valuation will depreciate by the day ?

Son will be forced to swap a multi-million-pound contract for a maximum of roughly ? 130-per-month , if he makes it to the highest rank of Sergeant , and draft dodging is not tolerated . It has consumed famous actors , rappers , singers and most South Korean celebrities decide it is better to get it out of the way than avoid it .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes someone limping out of a location (training) due to an injury, which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move or preventing them from doing something. There is no V1 acting on an NP object with an out of VP2[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

in search of a fifth straight win in all competitions when they face Swansea City at the Liberty Stadium on Saturday lunchtime .
The depth of the squad was underlined by last weekend 's 5-1 rout of Hull City . By the time Daniel Sturridge , Marko Grujic and Emre Can came off the bench the points were already secure . The likes of Dejan Lovren , Lucas Leiva , Alberto Moreno , Divock Origi and Danny Ings did n't even feature . With no European action this term , some of those on the fringes have been short of game time , but Klopp says their attitude and application on the training ground has been key to the progress Liverpool have made . " They are all involved all the time - that 's how it is , " Klopp said .

" It is very important they are all in very good shape and that 's how it is in this moment .

A petition to save the life of a former gynaecologist from Eastbourne , who has been told she can not have a life-saving operation because the NHS may have to pay for a drug that protects people from HIV , has topped almost 10,000 signatures . Harriet Scorer , a former High School and Eastbourne College student who now lives in Henley-on-Thames , is one of three women who suffer from a rare blood cancer and are being denied stem cell transplant operations because the High Court told NHS England it should pay for the drug that protects healthy people against HIV . Harriet , diagnosed with a form of non-Hodgkin 's lymphoma in 1999 , has undergone months of chemotherapy to prepare her immune systems for the operation but says she was told " point blank " that because the NHS would probably have to fund the HIV drug , they could not now put her through stem cell treatment .

new era of hope under Jurgen Klopp , but can they win the title this season ?
It 's been 26 years since Liverpool finished as the best team in England 's top-flight , when they won a seemingly-unassailable 18th trophy back in 1990 . Their fall from grace since has been dramatic , and opposition fans have n't shied away from rubbing it in their faces at every possible opportunity . There have been glimpses of a Renaissance , under Gerard Houllier , Rafa Benitez and most recently , under Brendan Rodgers . One way or the other though , the Reds have n't been able to push their way back up and regain their glory days of old . But now , under Jurgen Klopp , the Kop is dreaming again . Despite finishing 8th last season after the German took charge midway through , Liverpool have looked very impressive thus far this season . They 've already beaten Arsenal and Chelsea away from home and thrashed champions Leicester City at Anfield . Despite slipping up unexpectedly at Burnley , the signs are extremely positive . On paper , the Reds have nowhere @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Manchester City , Manchester United , Arsenal and arguably even Tottenham have bigger names in their ranks . But Klopp has built a career out of making a group of above-average individuals look like world-beaters . He brings the best out of every individual by devising a system to bolster everyone 's strengths and eliminate their weaknesses . At his previous club , Borussia Dortmund , he beat the dominance of Bayern Munich to win the Bundesliga in two successive seasons in 2011 and 2012 . He also led Dortmund to the finals of the UEFA Champions League in 2013 . He seemed a perfect fit for Liverpool when he signed in October last year and thus far , in his first full season , he has n't disappointed . Liverpool have a number of players who are very skillful on the ball , especially in the final third . Philippe Coutinho , Sadio Mane , Adam Lallana , Roberto Firmino , Georginio Wijnaldum and Daniel Sturridge are all capable of producing moments of magic to turn games . Klopp has added the graft to their craft @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have more possession in games . The fitness levels are markably up , and the intent the players have shown to win back the ball when they 've lost it has been exemplary . Under Klopp 's system , the formation is interchangeable and can switch to any of a 4-2-3-1 , 4-5-1 or a 4-1-4-1 as per the need of the hour . This malleability perfectly suits his group of players , and the results have been there for all to see . Jordan Henderson has done more than a passable job in a deep-lying defensive role , and the return of Emre Can from injury will make this team even better . The signing of Joel Matip at centre-back has been a fantastic one , and Dejan Lovren has also looked much more solid alongside the Cameroonian . Left-back was a problem in the first couple of games with Alberto Moreno looking completely out-of-sorts , but James Milner has slotted in admirably well in that role since . Can they win the title this season ? It may be a step too far to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's Manchester City already stealing a march on the other teams and looking close to impossible . But we 're just 6 games in , and things could change in a jiffy . Leicester City 's championship win last season showed that just about anyone with the right system and belief can go all the way , and Liverpool are certainly not short on either of those fronts . But realistically , getting back into the Champions League and becoming regulars in Europe 's elite competition should be the aim for Liverpool right now . The 5-time European Cup winners have been absent from the competition in 4 of the last 5 seasons , and rubbing shoulders with the best of the best is what they should be looking to qualify for . Having said that , with Chelsea , Manchester United and Arsenal all showing weaknesses early on , the Reds can certainly look to be City 's primary rivals for the top prize . In the seasons to come though , there is no reason why Klopp and Co. ca n't look to re-establish themselves as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ empire that can dominate for a long time . |

Coliseum , LondonJones ... new staging for English National Opera delivers clever insights and a shock twist but ducks the opera 's complexities and , at points , flies in the face of the music 's logic ' A chillly and un-erotic interpretation , pitched between a bedroom farce and Spanish surrealism ' ... Christopher Purves as Don Giovanni , Clive Bayley as Leporello and James Creswell as the Commendatore . Photograph : Tristram Kenton for the Guardian It 's a chilly , un-erotic interpretation pitched somewhere between a bedroom farce and Spanish surrealism , as if Feydeau has been re-imagined by Bu ? uel . As so often , Jones has a fine eye for hypocrisies , presenting us with a portrait of a society that seemingly rents by the hour , often secretly , in a labyrinthine hotel-cum-brothel , where we find Purves 's brutal , calculating Giovanni indulging the BDSM fantasies of Caitlin Lynch 's Anna , while the Commendatore ( James Creswell ) entertains a prostitute in an adjoining room . The narrative lurches into motion when Creswell is nastily dispatched with a knife Anna likes using in sex-play . We 're already very far from Mozart @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ balance of sympathies lies with Mary Bevan 's bewildered Zerlina , and Nicholas Crawley 's put-upon Masetto , their vacillating feelings for each other beautifully observed . Christine Rice 's Elvira is a neurotic obsessive , which sometimes flies in the face of the self-important music Mozart provides for her . As Anna 's guilt corrodes her relationship with Allan Clayton 's Ottavio , he is reduced to calling her repeatedly from the same phone box the Don uses for telephone sex . At times , however , Jones distrusts the opera 's ambivalences and metaphysical questioning . By providing the Don and Anna with a back history , he narrows the ambiguities derived from Mozart 's withholding of the details of their previous encounter . There 's genuine brilliance in his treatment of the relationship between Purves and Clive Bayley 's wonderfully sardonic Leporello , the pair of them very much alter-egos , capable of assuming each other 's identities in a flash . But we also notice a Leporello lookalike lurking among the Don 's lovers , whose significance only becomes apparent during Jones 's take on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bitterly ironic , but swivels out of telling us what -- or where -- is hell . Musically it 's strong , though Purves does n't always beguile or command as much as he might . Bayley is on tremendous form , and Clayton sounds glorious throughout . The women are excellent . Rice blazes away thrillingly in her act two aria . Lynch is silver-toned and superbly accurate : Jones 's unorthodox take allows her to reveal levels of vulnerability that some interpreters miss . Bevan can be deeply touching , above all in her scenes with Crawley , who is outstanding in a role often under-cast and under-played . Mark Wigglesworth conducts with great elegance , drama and warmth , making some unusual tempo choices -- the slower than usual second half of Batti , Batti , for instance -- that are always insightful : a reminder , yet again , of what a loss to this company his recent resignation as music director is. |

Postponed is well placed to live up to his status as favourite for Sunday 's Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe , according to trainer Roger Varian . Sheikh Mohammed Obaid 's five-year-old has been in fine form this season , winning all four of the races he has contested . After victories in the Dubai City of Gold and Sheema Classic races , Postponed returned to the United Kingdom to claim the Coronation Cup and International Stakes . A favourable stall draw of seven has seen Postponed backed into 15/8 and , with Andrea Atzeni on board , Varian is feeling confident . " Postponed has thrived throughout the season and he has done everything we have asked of him so far , " he told varianstable.com . " He has trained to his usual high standard in the build-up to Sunday and I could n't be happier with his condition as he heads into the biggest race of his career .

" The Arc is a tremendously difficult race to win and this year 's renewal looks full of quality . " That said , I feel Postponed is the rightful favourite and I hope everything is in place for him to run with great credit , which I am sure he will do . " Chantilly hosts the race for the first time as traditional home Longchamp undergoes redevelopment work , and Makahiki ( 6/1 ) and Harzand ( 13/2 ) are expected to be Postponed 's closest challengers , with Found ( 7/1 ) also among the leading contenders . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

The sentence 'But the reality is that you can't legislate your way out of everything.' does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction. While it includes 'out of', the phrase 'everything' is an NP complement of the complex preposition 'out of' and does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, which are key characteristics of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Some years ago ... at the beginning of my political career , I campaigned for an end to female genital mutilation and for tougher penalties for those responsible for carrying it out . Little did I ever imagine that I would be in the position , as home secretary , where it would be my job to drive on the government 's efforts to get rid of this brutal practice . It is one of my absolute priorities -- working with the police and other agencies -- to see this government is the one under which there is the first successful prosecution and punishment of a perpetrator of this horrible crime . And let 's be clear about that : it is a crime . The law in this country is not there to be compromised or to be blinkered . FGM , " honour-based violence " , and forced marriage are illegal . They are pernicious forms of abuse of women and we will not shy away from tackling them because of cultural sensitivities . We have made progress . We have introduced measures to protect women and girls . We now have laws such as a new offence of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have begun for stalking offences , forced marriage is criminalised and the " revenge pornography " law that came into effect last year should start to bring an end to the humiliation and pain caused when ex-partners share intimate images online . These are some , but by no means all , of the powerful means we have at our disposal to tackle violence against women and girls . From Crown Prosecution Service figures last month , it is clear the volume of prosecutions and convictions is at its highest ever level , meaning more victims are seeing justice than ever before . But the reality is that you ca n't legislate your way out of everything . Much of the challenge is about stopping vulnerable people becoming victims in the first place . Giving people the voice they need to seek help and supporting them as the scars -- both the ones you can see and the ones you ca n't -- begin to heal . We still have much , much more to do to reveal the true scale of hidden vulnerability We also have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about the society we live in and we have to be prepared to have some difficult conversations about some distressing subjects . There are still far , far too many women -- and men -- who are the victims of domestic abuse , who are beaten , who live in fear in their own homes , who are stripped of their sense of self , isolated from friends and family by coercive partners . It is a terrifying and disturbing pattern with which those who have been listening to Helen Titchener 's harrowing storyline in The Archers will be familiar . The toxic wake of scandals such as Savile and Rotherham , and the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse , has exploded into the public consciousness an awareness of child exploitation and abuse the like of that simply did not exist before . The only way to ever neutralise that toxicity , and give victims and survivors the justice they deserve , is to be utterly unsparing about the failings that led us here and what lessons must be learned . Transparency and public discourse are crucial @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ find them unpleasant . We must lift the shroud of silence and light up the dark corners that allow the perpetrators to operate . That public discourse must also make clear which behaviours are acceptable and which are not . It matters what those in the public eye say . This is something I would urge the shadow chancellor to reflect upon , long and hard . Remarks about lynching or assassinating female politicians -- any politicians -- are not jokes . And they are not funny , whoever they are made about . The reality is that there is still too much that goes on behind closed doors and we still have much , much more to do to reveal the true scale of hidden vulnerability . Protecting children at risk of exploitation will always be a priority and at the other end , safeguarding an ageing population brings its own challenges . The nature of drug and alcohol dependency is continually evolving ; what remains constant is the need to stop those individuals with some of the most challenging and complex needs slipping through the cracks . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ slavery , where victims are forced into degrading sex work or backbreaking domestic servitude , and we will continue to lead the global fight to eradicate it , working with our partners abroad . With an estimated 46 million people worldwide enslaved , this will not be an easy fight , but it is not one we will lose the heart for . No one believes this more than the prime minister . She stood in Downing Street a few months ago and promised a Britain that works for everyone . She wanted the country to know that this government would tackle the injustices of poverty , race and class . She wanted you to know it is our priority to deliver a fairer , and a safer society for all of its citizens . Our conference , which starts today , is an opportunity for me and my cabinet colleagues to set out how we will do that . For my part , let me be clear : protecting those in society most at risk of harm , those crushed at the bottom of the heap , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ should have looked after them , is , as home secretary , my job , but I also see it is as my moral duty . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'pull out of' as a phrasal verb followed by a noun phrase 'shipbuilding', which does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Gary Caldwell hailed the defensive strength of his Wigan Athletic side after they held out in-form Brentford to secure a valuable point on the road . Latics were under the cosh for most of an entertaining encounter at Griffin Park . But led by skipper Stephen Warnock , vice-captain Jake Buxton -- who both cleared off the line in the second half -- and Dan Burn , the visitors were good value for their point . " They were incredible especially Dan , who 's needed injections before the last two games to get through , " Caldwell told the Evening Post . " That shows you the kind of characters we have at the football club . Dan 's a very good player , but still relatively young for a centre half . " I think he 's been outstanding in recent weeks .

" A return of four points from the last four days means Latics have well and truly stopped the rot after seven games without a win . And Caldwell admits he ca n't wait for the action to resume after the international break . " Results-wise our start to the season was n't good enough , but we have come out of that and have emerged stronger as a group , " he added .

The former White Bear pub site in Tingley was the subject of five failed applications by fast food giant McDonald 's to build a restaurant and drive-through . But councillors from the Morley Borough Independents ( MBI ) group say the site has fallen into disrepair , and become an eyesore in the community . Now they are considering asking Leeds City Council to use compulsory purchase powers to take control of the site . A group of travellers set up camp on the site briefly last month after they were moved on by police from Glen Road Recreation Ground in Morley . Coun Judith Elliott said : " We asked the police to use their powers to remove travellers who illegally occupied Glen Road playing fields as it prevented the playing fields being used by local teams .

Coun Robert Finnigan said " We are exploring a long term solution to the redevelopment of the White Bear site at Tingley . " Coun Finnigan said the site is owned by Matterhorn Capital , and that councillors are hoping to meet with the company to discuss the future development of the site . Local authorities have powers to enforce a purchase of privately-owned land or properties for public use in certain circumstances , under the government 's Transport and Works Act 1992 .

Coun Judith Elliott said : " We asked the police to use their powers to remove travellers who illegally occupied Glen Road playing fields as it prevented the playing fields being used by local teams .

" Coun Finnigan said the site is owned by Matterhorn Capital , and that councillors are hoping to meet with the company to discuss the future development of the site . Local authorities have powers to enforce a purchase of privately-owned land or properties for public use in certain circumstances , under the government 's Transport and Works Act 1992 .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves the phrase 'arises out of sending money', which does not have an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The context is about the origin or cause of a case, not about causing someone to move out of or preventing someone from an action.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'made a political career out of insulting fellow Europeans' involves the verb 'made' with 'a political career' as its object, followed by 'out of insulting fellow Europeans', which does not involve a causee or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'make a pretty penny out of causing...', where 'causing' is part of a noun phrase modifying 'discomfort and misery', not a VP[-ing] predicate with a causee. Additionally, it lacks the movement/extraction or prevention interpretation characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Hundreds of people ... been attending Summer Splash - a party organised by events company Link Up TV . The sub-committee heard that the designated premises supervisor Mrs Sheila O'Neill had not even met with organisers before the event , and had allowed an offensive weapon and drugs on site . More than 50 police officers attended the incident in High Elms Lane on June 12 . Councillors Sarah Neimes , Heather Kenison and Eric Bishop heard the manor house had failed to take any action to several warning letters received from the council since 2012 . In their decision notice , they said they did not accept the incident was a one-off and management should have stepped in when they realised the party was getting out of control . They also said the control and checks before to event were " wholly inadequate " . The decision notice , which was sent to neighbouring residents this week , said : " Whilst the management of High Elms Manor may have been misled , na ? ve or , at worse , complicit in their risk assessment of the LinkedUp TV 's booking , an effective DPS @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the course of their business . " No such effective action occurred and effective management to deal with any licensed event or otherwise that might get out of hand was non-existent . " Given failure to respond to warning letters and , most importantly , to comply with the Premises Licence Conditions , and whilst having very serious regard to the potential detrimental financial impact on the premises , the sub-committee considered tough action was needed . " There added that there was no evidence to show the manor was n't exceeding the 40 events they are allowed to hold a year , which include weddings , birthdays and funerals . Cllr Stephen Giles-Medhurst who represents Leavesden said : " Given the level of complaints from residents , the police and licensing officer I am not surprised at he Panels decision . " Rightly when the licence was granted strict conditions were imposed to protect neighbouring residents from harm and the conditions have been breached it seen on a number of occasions not just recently . " It is always sad when something @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an alternative non-nuisance use here . " The manor said Mrs O'Neill had been unwell for some time and she should have been removed long before the incident . The current managers asked for a months ' notice to implement changes . It has 21 days to appeal the decision . There appears to be lots of gangster school boys running toward the photographer possible armed with guns and knifes .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'make a pretty penny out of causing many people discomfort and misery' does not involve a causee NP object that participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a general action of profiting from a situation, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Hundreds of people ... been attending Summer Splash - a party organised by events company Link Up TV . The sub-committee heard that the designated premises supervisor Mrs Sheila O'Neill had not even met with organisers before the event , and had allowed an offensive weapon and drugs on site . More than 50 police officers attended the incident in High Elms Lane on June 12 . Councillors Sarah Neimes , Heather Kenison and Eric Bishop heard the manor house had failed to take any action to several warning letters received from the council since 2012 . In their decision notice , they said they did not accept the incident was a one-off and management should have stepped in when they realised the party was getting out of control . They also said the control and checks before to event were " wholly inadequate " . The decision notice , which was sent to neighbouring residents this week , said : " Whilst the management of High Elms Manor may have been misled , na ? ve or , at worse , complicit in their risk assessment of the LinkedUp TV 's booking , an effective DPS @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the course of their business . " No such effective action occurred and effective management to deal with any licensed event or otherwise that might get out of hand was non-existent . " Given failure to respond to warning letters and , most importantly , to comply with the Premises Licence Conditions , and whilst having very serious regard to the potential detrimental financial impact on the premises , the sub-committee considered tough action was needed . " There added that there was no evidence to show the manor was n't exceeding the 40 events they are allowed to hold a year , which include weddings , birthdays and funerals . Cllr Stephen Giles-Medhurst who represents Leavesden said : " Given the level of complaints from residents , the police and licensing officer I am not surprised at he Panels decision . " Rightly when the licence was granted strict conditions were imposed to protect neighbouring residents from harm and the conditions have been breached it seen on a number of occasions not just recently . " It is always sad when something @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an alternative non-nuisance use here . " The manor said Mrs O'Neill had been unwell for some time and she should have been removed long before the incident . The current managers asked for a months ' notice to implement changes . It has 21 days to appeal the decision . There appears to be lots of gangster school boys running toward the photographer possible armed with guns and knifes .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', where 'receiving Cookies' is a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

terror
A terrified Wigan mum and young daughter were threatened with a meat cleaver and knife by dognappers . Four pedigree Dogue de Bourdeaux puppies were the target of the thugs who burst in Laura Reardon 's home in Worsley Mesnes on Monday night . Her 10-year-old daughter , who had been upstairs , came down after hearing the noise and one of the intruders told her to get back upstairs or else something would happen to her . A friend of 31-year-old Laura , who was in another room , was also kept at bay by the armed men as the pair first tried to steal the 11-week-old pets in their cage and then made a grab for them individually . Laura says she was also " half-strangled " as she fought to stop one of the men from taking her phone and so ring for help . The thieves fled in a silver Volkswagen - either a Golf or a Polo - which had been parked behind the home in Prestt Grove at the time of the 8.30pm robbery @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Pepper and Decota and one tan-coloured dog called Ty . Laura and her daughter , who we have decided not to name , are now living in fear and hoping to get transferred to a new home . Both police and the organisation DogLost.co.uk today appealed for help in tracing the stolen animals quickly before they are sold on . Single mum Laura said : " I had just put the bins out and left the door unlocked , my friend was in the other room and my daughter was upstairs when these two men walked in . I had been mopping the floor and the taller of them backed me into the kitchen . " He had a wild starey look on his face as if he was intoxicated . The other one stopped my friend from coming through . " At first I was so shocked I was arguing with them , despite the weapons . They said they wanted the dogs and first tried to take their cage but then picked them up individually by their harnesses . " My poor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her to be threatened by these men too . Then one of them started throttling me to get my phone off me and I nearly passed out but eventually he gave up and they left . " We were all left very shaken and upset . I felt just sickened . It 's not something you expect to happen just for a few puppies . " Laura says she believes the thieves may have come looking after she put pictures of the dogs on Facebook , although she had not mentioned her address . She said that while the dogs can be very expensive to buy , because the thieves do n't have the Kennel Club documents proving their pedigree , they wo n't be able to sell them for very much at all .

And we want to get the message out to people about finding these dogs urgently before they are sold on and possibly taken out of the area .

A FORMER train driver turned nail artist has become a global phenomenon with more than 10 million views on YouTube . Mum-of-three Natasha Lee is now a full time ' vlogger ' offering expert beauty tips to her legion of online devotees across the world . She has given up the beauty salon she once owned in Chester and turned the box room of her family 's semi-detached home , near Mold , into a mini studio where she produces her money-spinning videos teaching the world the intricacies of nail art . Her online tutorials have been so successful , regularly achieving viewing figures in the hundreds of thousands , that she is now branching out to post videos on other aspects of beauty and fitness and about her family life .

But even so , Natasha has been genuinely amazed at the impact her video postings have had on the world , saying that when she started she did n't even realise that people could make a full time career out of posting videos on You Tube . She said : " It did n't even occur to me that you could get paid for postings on You Tube , never mind turn it into a full time job . I only started putting out one or two videos showing nail art techniques to share with my friends . Then suddenly they went global . It was unbelievable . " Her accountant , Anthony Lewis , from Coxeys , said : " Once you start hitting big figures like that You Tube becomes seriously interested in you as a business proposition and helps you to develop further . " That 's what happened with Natasha . Her figures alerted the YouTube management team that there was something special going on here . " High viewing figures mean commercial companies , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interested in advertising on the sites of bloggers and vloggers , who in turn receive a percentage of the advertising revenue You Tube earns from the sites . Natasha , 36 , has been told by You Tube that she ranks among the top 18 vloggers in her field in Britain and as a result she now has regular access to You Tube 's team of experts and its state of the art training facilities in King 's Cross , London , to help boost her business further . She said : " It is completely amazing and it all started by accident . " I was looking for a new career direction and knew I wanted to do something creative which would fit in with my family life , but I never imagined I would end up doing this . " Natasha is no stranger to forging new pathways in life . She grew up on Anglesey where one of her first jobs was as a train driver . She said : " I was 19 and had just been made redundant from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I got a job with Virgin Trains , originally with the stewarding team . But I was not happy doing that and was looking for something different . " I was talking with colleagues about a train driver 's vacancy which became available and I mentioned that I fancied it . " Everyone laughed and said I could n't possibly do it , which was like a red rag to a bull for me with my red hair , so I took up the challenge and applied for the job . " Natasha , not only got the job but achieved the second highest score ever recorded for the region in her training qualifications . She gave up life on the railways when she moved to Flintshire after meeting her husband Richard , also a train driver . She said : " I went on to qualify as a financial advisor but once our children were born that did not fit in well with family life .

" I had always had a creative streak in me and knew I wanted to do something arty and inspirational , which is why I specialised as a nail technician . I loved it and I also qualified to teach nail art . " That 's how I came to do the video tutorials , originally just for my friends and a few colleagues .

I eventually chose to sell the salon and focus on the vlogs because it was more flexible and fits in with my home needs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I get to spend lots of time with the family , but I also get to do something creative .

" Bradley has ... one to the hip . For him to have to come off shows you how bad it must have felt , " said Cowley .

" Meanwhile , the extent of Adam Marriott 's arm injury should be known now as he was due to see a specialist earlier this week . " It 's an ongoing one but he feels a lot better in himself than he did , " added Cowley . " The pain seems to have settled down and is a lot better than it was originally .

" Wrexham are a good team , a really great club with vociferous support behind them . It 's not easy to go there and lesser teams and lesser characters would have folded after the way we started .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It uses 'manufacture something out of nothing', where 'nothing' is not a VP[-ing] predicate and there is no causee involved in the event described by a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Chris Martin is ... his time on international duty with Scotland can help him end his lean spell in front of goal at club level . Martin , who joined Fulham on loan from Derby County on transfer deadline day , has gone 20 domestic matches without find the net , dating back to the Rams ' impressive 4-0 win over Hull City at the iPro Stadium on April 5 last season . His only goal this term came for Scotland in last month 's World Cup qualifying group opener in Malta . He has joined up with the Scots again , along with Derby wide man Ikechi Anya , for the qualifiers against Lithuania and Slovakia . " I did n't totally expect it to happen so that 's why I felt I was a little bit fortunate . " That was the next step in my international career . I had been on the periphery a little bit in terms of the amount of games I had played . That was the next step and hopefully I can build on that now . " When asked to sum up his contribution to Scotland , Martin @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there is still more to come from myself . " I 've had a few opportunities now , done OK in some and not so well in others . It 's trying to find that consistency of performance . " Strachan remains a major fan of the forward 's all-round game , consistently selecting him ahead of the likes of Ross McCormack and Jordan Rhodes , and the former Norwich City man does feel he has grown into the international scene . " Just the familiarity of it and playing more often , getting more minutes on the pitch , trying to feel like you belong here really , " he added . " That 's the challenge when you first come into the squad , particularly when you are not always playing straight away . " I feel comfortable here now and , hopefully , that 's going to show in performances . " I was n't comparing them , beaufort - in fact I stated that in the post . But you wrote that NO striker can score without @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reason I mentioned Henry and Messi to name but two . I 'm a big fan of Martin 's footballing ability but perhaps his glaring weaknesses mean the whole team needs to be built around him . If he was getting anywhere near the top of the goal-scoring charts each year , fair enough - but he 's way off the pace of the division 's top strikers . Has a rams fan , we all have different opinions on chris martin , im not knocking anyone who as commented on here , my opinion is not so much the lack of goals cm has scored , but his whole attitude , to me he did nt seem interested and was somewhat labouring about on the pitch , so thst do nt inspire other players to work and graft , wrong I know but its life , and always moaning , so I think its best all round if he moved on , but looking at fulhams fans web site , they dunna want him , my opinions here ppl , you rams I 'm not sure that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ valid argument ! They have ability which far exceeds anything at our level and they can manufacture something out of nothing whilst lesser mortals need support .. Blowing smoke up Vydra 's **** after two goals is premature , even the ' awful ' Martin ( who never did anything according to some ) scored 15 goals last season . Add the fact that we have sourced a decent winger since Martin left and its not a level playing field . Great for us for a couple of seasons but found out . Not his fault that his 20+ goals were n't enough to get us up but that 's football . Glad he 's not with us now but I 'll always have respect for one of our most prolific scorers in living memory . Give the lad the respect he 's due . All the best for the future Chris . Sending Chris Martin out on a season-long loan seems to have been the culmination of an effort since the summer to change the team , formation and way of playing left over from the Maclaren @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ only needed tweaks to give our predominantly 4-3-3 - playing team a plan B to break down the more stubborn opposition , instead our squad has changed just enough to make them less than convincing in any formation . Did Martin really have to go out on loan ? Why did n't we keep him and with the money from Hendrick 's move buy a couple of battling defensive midfielders in the Thorne / Eustace mould , who could give our attacking midfielders the time on the ball to create chances for the forwards ? I was at the Reading game at the weekend and despite people saying we played better , we are sadly creating very little compared to how we played just two seasons ago . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not exhibit either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'made his headline-grabbing career out of chopping up cows and ambushing people with his foreskin' involves an NP as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', similar to the examples in (7a) and (7b), which are not instances of the transitive out of -ing construction.

, it 's easy to rumble past the unassuming row of brick warehouses in Vauxhall , south London , and not look twice . Your eye will most likely be distracted by the cacophony of gaudy apartment blocks now clustered along the other side of the tracks . But Damien Hirst 's quiet Newport Street gallery , announced as the winner of this year 's Royal Institute of British Architects ( Riba ) Stirling Prize for the UK 's best new building , reveals its special qualities the closer you look .
The sawtooth roof-lights , so common in industrial buildings , are each differently angled , to give the subtle impression of the building unfolding like a concertina . The sharp metal balustrade of the Mussolini balcony , where Hirst might give a cheeky salute to passing trains , has been water-jet cut from a single slab of steel . The row of Victorian sheds is in fact a combination of old and new , a collage of brickwork with the variation that makes London 's streets so pleasing to wander . ' Extreme care and precision ' ... the exterior of the gallery . Photograph @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Caruso St John , arguably Britain 's leading architects of art gallery spaces , who first featured on the Stirling prize shortlist in 2000 for their breakthrough New Art Gallery Walsall , since when they have honed their skills with Nottingham Contemporary ( 2009 ) , the Tate Britain revamp ( 2013 ) and a growing empire of galleries for Gagosian , most recently in Grosvenor Hill ( 2015 ) in the heart of Mayfair . They were also Stirling-shortlisted for their beguiling Brick House in 2006 , an atmospheric cave-like home in a landlocked plot , but this is the first time they have won the gong -- and it is richly deserved . Newport Street is one of their most reticent gallery projects , a far cry from the lace-embossed green concrete and golden fluting of Nottingham , or the oligarch-bling spiral staircase of Tate Britain , but it exemplifies the level of extreme care and precision that the architects bring to every project . For an artist who has made his headline-grabbing career out of chopping up cows and ambushing people with his foreskin , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the row of three Victorian scenery-painting workshops in 2002 , attracted by the high , cathedral-like spaces within , which he briefly used as his own studio . Their great height has allowed a second floor to be deftly inserted , while new buildings have been added at either end , bookending the ensemble , with stripped windows that echo the proportions and rhythm of the existing workshops . The interiors are simple , white affairs , with exposed roof trusses to remind you of their past life , while the two levels are linked by oval spiral staircases of a special beauty -- moments of warmth between the slightly clinical galleries . Built of buttery white brick , with recessed concrete handrails and sweeping digitally-milled wooden balustrades , they are crafted with a precision that makes architects go weak at the knees , and a robust quality rarely seen since the civic buildings of the 19th century . In craftsmanship alone , the gallery is streets ahead of this year 's other contenders . Herzog & de Meuron 's Blavatnik School of Government in Oxford comes second , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ slabs , but whose glitzy shell encloses a grand gestural atrium of uncertain usefulness . Other contenders on the list were the admirable new riverside campus for City of Glasgow College , the rebirth of the New Bodleian as the Weston Library in Oxford , a stealthy modernist house near Wales and the first phase of the controversial Heygate Estate regeneration in London -- a project that should never have made it on to the list , given that it represents the trampling of a social housing estate and its replacement with a scheme of mostly luxury flats . Read more Recognition at home has been a long time coming for Adam Caruso and Peter St John , now in their mid-to-late 50s , and who , like many of the best British architects , enjoy their biggest commissions overseas . Much of their recent UK work has been frustratingly limited to subtle adjustments and internal reworkings . When you leave Newport Street , to be confronted full on with the car-crash @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are sorely needed at the bigger scale .

Thousands of Brits could stand to take advantage of money pots put aside to compensate travels who have been hit with flight delays . Experts claim a whopping 4,000 flights were cancelled and over 120,000 delayed across Europe in August 2016 alone . Naturally , with airlines and travel agents eager not to fork out , the companies you travel with could be sitting on over ? 2 million of unclaimed cash . Airports across the UK any airport , the facility has numerous delays day in , day out . The delays , a high number of which occurred on European @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and out of pocket , after having to fork out extra to readjust their trip - particularly those without travel insurance . According to the Birmingham Mail , RefundMyTicket.net , a firm behind the campaign urging holidaymakers to claim their cash back , says only five per cent of travellers ever file a compensation claim themselves . So , now we reckon its your turn to fight back . Getty Delays could cost millions If your flight is delayed for three or more hours you are entitled to claim up to ? 500 according to European Regulation No 261/2004 . After entering into force on 14 February 2005 , the regulation introduced basic protection for passengers when they find themselves in situations of being denied boarding against their will , cancellations without prior warning and long delays . How much an airline owes you depends on how long your flight was delayed and how far away your destination is . A flight is legally considered as delayed if @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ time . In the event of a delay of at least two hours , passengers can expect to be offered free meals as well as refreshments . In addition , they have the right to make phone calls free of charge or to send two faxes , telex or e-mails to inform others about the delay . In the event of a delay lasting at least five hours , passengers can request the reimbursement of their full ticket price within seven days , regardless of flight distance . If the flight is delayed 3 hours or more at the final destination , then compensation is due . It will be calculated based on the distance and airport of origin and/or destination . To summarise , in order to qualify for a refund you must : Your flight must have arrived more than three hours late . It 's the point at which the plane doors open that count . It must be an EU flight and airline . That 's defined as any flight which departed from an EU airport . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or airport closure does n't count . Yet most technical problems with the plane , or not enough staff does count . You 're entitled to cash . Many airlines will try and offer you flight vouchers , if they do then ask for cash . The EU has ruled that passengers who are delayed by more than three hours are entitled to financial compensation ( unless the reason for delay is " extraordinary " ) . Your arrival or departure venue must be at an airport in the EU , but you do n't have to be an EU citizen to be eligible for compensation . An airline , according to EU law , does not have to compensate you if the flight has been disrupted due to " extraordinary circumstances " , but they still have the responsibility to ensure your trip has not been ruined by the cancellation or delay by providing : a ticket refund ( in full or for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ means to your final destination a new ticket for the later date of your preference ( this will be dependent on seat availability ) .

Often airlines try to pull the " extraordinary circumstance " trick to get out of paying you but you must still challenge them because they are only let off if the weather conditions are extremely unsafe , if employees are on strike or if there is civil unrest . In addition to the above , when the flight is delayed for more than a day compared to the originally announced time , the airline must provide passengers with hotel accommodation and transport when necessary . However , it is common for airlines companies to derogate from their obligations of care and assistance . Unfortunately , the passenger will often be forced to personally incur additional costs such as meals , refreshments or transport . For this reason it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be reimbursed by the airline . If you 've volunteered to give up your seat on an overbooked flight , you can choose between organising a re-route and receiving a full refund . If you 've been re-routed and placed on another flight , airlines are still responsible for your customer care . They must still provide you with food , transportation from airport to hotel and vice versa , a place to stay overnight if the flight is on a different day and access to a telephone . |

In the event of a delay of at least two hours , passengers can expect to be offered free meals as well as refreshments . In addition , they have the right to make phone calls free of charge or to send two faxes , telex or e-mails to inform others about the delay . In the event of a delay lasting at least five hours , passengers can request the reimbursement of their full ticket price within seven days , regardless of flight distance . If the flight is delayed 3 hours or more at the final destination , then compensation is due . It will be calculated based on the distance and airport of origin and/or destination . To summarise , in order to qualify for a refund you must : Your flight must have arrived more than three hours late . It 's the point at which the plane doors open that count . It must be an EU flight and airline . That 's defined as any flight which departed from an EU airport . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or airport closure does n't count . Yet most technical problems with the plane , or not enough staff does count . You 're entitled to cash . Many airlines will try and offer you flight vouchers , if they do then ask for cash . The EU has ruled that passengers who are delayed by more than three hours are entitled to financial compensation ( unless the reason for delay is " extraordinary " ) . Your arrival or departure venue must be at an airport in the EU , but you do n't have to be an EU citizen to be eligible for compensation . An airline , according to EU law , does not have to compensate you if the flight has been disrupted due to " extraordinary circumstances " , but they still have the responsibility to ensure your trip has not been ruined by the cancellation or delay by providing : a ticket refund ( in full or for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ means to your final destination a new ticket for the later date of your preference ( this will be dependent on seat availability ) . Airlines are also supposed to provide you with customer care while you wait for your alternative transport . Often airlines try to pull the " extraordinary circumstance " trick to get out of paying you but you must still challenge them because they are only let off if the weather conditions are extremely unsafe , if employees are on strike or if there is civil unrest . In addition to the above , when the flight is delayed for more than a day compared to the originally announced time , the airline must provide passengers with hotel accommodation and transport when necessary . However , it is common for airlines companies to derogate from their obligations of care and assistance . Unfortunately , the passenger will often be forced to personally incur additional costs such as meals , refreshments or transport . For this reason it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be reimbursed by the airline . If you 've volunteered to give up your seat on an overbooked flight , you can choose between organising a re-route and receiving a full refund . If you 've been re-routed and placed on another flight , airlines are still responsible for your customer care . They must still provide you with food , transportation from airport to hotel and vice versa , a place to stay overnight if the flight is on a different day and access to a telephone . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'take the frustration out of being stuck behind an HGV' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a general effect of higher lorry speeds on frustration levels, not a specific action causing someone to move out of or be prevented from an activity.

New road casualty statistics show that , last year , deaths on 50mph rural roads fell by seven per cent and serious injuries dropped 11 per cent compared to the year before .

It is thanks to the early members of the Brighouse Photographic Society , which was formed in 1895 that today we have the opportunity of seeing how Brighouse and its surrounding communities looked over a century ago . Some of those early members included George Hepworth who as a local architect probably had both the time and money to equip himself for this new pastime . When the old museum in Brighouse Library was closed in 1956 many of his old glass plate negatives found their way to the Tolson Museum in Huddersfield . Disposing of these is not one of the things the old Brighouse Council can be proud of . Martin Manley was another who 's negatives have had countless prints re-produced and duplicated many times .

One of the later members was Mr Harry Mitchell who had the shoe shop in Commercial Street . I was fortunate enough many years ago to have the opportunity of purchasing his old glass plate negatives . Most of these plates are almost as good as the day the picture was taken and the prints are equally as sharp . Looking through an old membership card dated 1918/19 I have for the society it is interesting to look at what they offered to members in those days .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase 'receiving Cookies', but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Therefore, it does not qualify as an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', where 'receiving Cookies' is a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'. Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

A Bo'ness mum and daughter are blazing a trail for the concept of using " real people " as fashion models -- by fronting a nationwide ad campaign for a major retail centre . Linda Grant and daughter Jemma Liddle are about to become two of the most-recognised women in central Scotland , after they were asked to join a top team promoting Stirling 's Thistles centres in the run-up to Christmas . The choice of mum-of-two Linda and Jemma as models is seen as a ground-breaking departure from the usual fashion campaigns , increasingly under fire for featuring spindly females that most shoppers ca n't relate to . With them as campaign icons are male models like Stirling County and Glasgow Warriors rugby stars Adam Ashe , and Finn Russell , as well as author and history lecturer Michael Rapport . Phil Byrne , centre director at The Thistles , said : " Living Brand is a celebration of the personal style of a diverse cross section of real people , reflecting their own individuality " . For the Bo'ness mum and daughter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an adventure , although both are now a little anxious at the prospect of being recognised everywhere they go . Jemma said : " It 's always good to do something outside your comfort zone and a professional modelling shoot was certainly that for me ! " Being looked after by the hair and makeup team as well as styling my looks all added to the enjoyment though " She added : " I was nervous , but the team and photographer really put me at ease . It was amazing to be doing the photos at Stirling Castle as well as in The Thistles . " I must admit it will be strange shopping in The Thistles and seeing my face on billboards and displays . " The Living Brand concept aims to woo custom to the Stirling mall with " an authentic celebration of individuality across a diverse group of men and women , none of whom are professional models " . Besides that , each " chose their own looks " , so the branded gear they are wearing reflected their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ style -- just as clothes shopping heads towards its busiest season -- Linda and Jemma are billed as " a refreshing antithesis to standard marketing " .

Linda Grant and daughter Jemma Liddle are about to become two of the most-recognised women in central Scotland , after they were asked to join a top team promoting Stirling 's Thistles centres in the run-up to Christmas . The choice of mum-of-two Linda and Jemma as models is seen as a ground-breaking departure from the usual fashion campaigns , increasingly under fire for featuring spindly females that most shoppers ca n't relate to . With them as campaign icons are male models like Stirling County and Glasgow Warriors rugby stars Adam Ashe , and Finn Russell , as well as author and history lecturer Michael Rapport . Phil Byrne , centre director at The Thistles , said : " Living Brand is a celebration of the personal style of a diverse cross section of real people , reflecting their own individuality " . For the Bo'ness mum and daughter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an adventure , although both are now a little anxious at the prospect of being recognised everywhere they go . Jemma said : " It 's always good to do something outside your comfort zone and a professional modelling shoot was certainly that for me ! " Being looked after by the hair and makeup team as well as styling my looks all added to the enjoyment though " She added : " I was nervous , but the team and photographer really put me at ease . It was amazing to be doing the photos at Stirling Castle as well as in The Thistles . " I must admit it will be strange shopping in The Thistles and seeing my face on billboards and displays . " The Living Brand concept aims to woo custom to the Stirling mall with " an authentic celebration of individuality across a diverse group of men and women , none of whom are professional models " . Besides that , each " chose their own looks " , so the branded gear they are wearing reflected their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ style -- just as clothes shopping heads towards its busiest season -- Linda and Jemma are billed as " a refreshing antithesis to standard marketing " .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a situation where someone comes out of hiding due to a threat, which does not involve the transitive out of -ing construction. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations.

A FAMILY who handled stolen goods as part of a ? 70,000 ' serious and sophisticated ' organised theft from businesses have been jailed . Henry Adam Price , aged 44 , was sentenced at Cardiff Crown Court today after pleading guilty to three counts of handling stolen goods , along with his brother Colwyn Price , 46 , and their nephew Henry W Price , aged 26 , who both pleaded guilty to one count of handling stolen goods . Ieuan Bennett , prosecuting , said in January last year , a wrench worth ? 1,400 was stolen from a locked cabin outside Bridgend which belonged to a railway plant hire company . The court heard Henry Adam Price was stopped by police in February of last year with the item in the van . Police also found in the van parts of a Mercedes 814 box van worth ? 2,000 which was stolen from a farm in St Brides , Newport . The court heard the stolen van had been broken down for scrap metal and parts of the chassis and gear box @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Officers confiscated the items but did not arrest him on that day . Mr Bennett said Price was ' vague ' about where he got the items which caused officers to be suspicious . A cab worth ? 40,000 and an orange trailer worth ? 20,000 belonging to Ronnie Evans were stolen from the dock yard in Newport . The court heard the stolen trailer was fully loaded with scrap metal which was going to be sold for an estimated ? 5,492.76 . Mr Bennett said members of staff from Ronnie Evans traced the trailer to AJT Recycling in Swansea where they saw a number of men with the trailer . The police attended and arrested the three defendants . The court heard , dogs and a helicopter were deployed to search for Henry Adam Price who was hiding behind scrap metal . One officer cut his leg in an effort to get to him but Mr Bennett said Price ' promptly ' came out of hiding when he was ' threatened with a Taser . ' Mr Bennett said the three defendants were part of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ no evidence of them taking the trailer or the cab . Jeffrey Jones , defending , Henry A Price , said his personal circumstances should be consider as a family man with four children including a son with cystic fibrosis who is waiting for a lung transplant .

Henry A Price , of Rover Way , Cardiff , was sentenced to 10 months imprisonment ; Colwyn Price , of Greenway Road , Cardiff , was sentenced to six months imprisonment and Henry W Price , also of Greenway Road , was sentenced to four months imprisonment . Judge Niclas Parry said : " The background to this kind of offending is the serious , planned , sophisticated theft , targeting property taken from businesses who rely on being able to leave their property in the outdoors .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('Talbot') + V1 ('hustle') + NP object ('us') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('playing our normal passing game'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the action of hustling prevents 'us' from playing our normal passing game. The verb 'hustle' can be classified under the means of exerting force or pressure, which is one of the categories of verbs that can appear in the V1 slot of the construction. The NP object 'us' functions as a causee, and the sentence clearly conveys a prevention interpretation, making it a valid instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

DAVIE ANDERSON is ... kind of level-headed footballer who speaks his mind so when he says Kilbirnie Ladeside are making strides under Stevie Swift then he deserves a hearing . For the club who finished third top of the Super Premier Division pile last season to be sitting with just two points and without a win to their name after five league outings is not to the liking of their success craving supporting legions who are more than a tad unhappy with this perceived lack of progress . Midfield playmaker Anderson shares these frustrations but is adamant there are better times just around the corner ... or indeed at Meadow Park tomorrow when the Blasties go toe-to-toe with fierce rivals Auchinleck Talbot in the Ardagh Glass League Cup Final . The 33-year-old admitted : " For sure results have not been to anyone 's liking but we as a group of players are feeling the pain more than most and are determined to get our season back on track .

Last night he insisted : " People on the outside are n't always in possession of the full facts so they are always going to doubt you given our run of poor results and I 'd be lying to say our recent form is acceptable .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('Talbot... hustle us out of playing our normal passing game'). It involves a prevention interpretation where the subject (Talbot) is attempting to prevent the object (us) from performing the action described by the VP2[-ing] predicate (playing our normal passing game). The verb 'hustle' fits into the category of exerting force or pressure, which is one of the means to achieve a goal as described in the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate with 'I' as the NP subject, 'talk' as V1, 'myself' as the NP object (a reflexive pronoun coreferential with the subject), and 'doing things' as the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also allows for a prevention interpretation, where the speaker prevents themselves from doing things by talking. This fits the atypical type of NP object as described in the sixth property.

' I want to kill Nazis '
I 'm not meant to ask her about this - her publicists tell me " it 's embargoed " - but whatever . Anna Kendrick has a book of autobiographical essays out this November and she 's titled it Scrappy Little Nobody . This from an Oscar-nominated actress and friend of George Clooney who has a trillion Twitter followers ( actually 5.8 million ) . If she 's a nobody , then what hope for the rest of us ? At what point does self-deprecation have exactly the opposite effect ? " What , like a false modesty thing ? Like I 'm fishing ? " Her eyebrows are raised . She might actually be annoyed . " Should I have called it Super Important Star ? Would that have made you happier ? " Hmm , maybe . " How about ' I 'm Obviously Amazing ' by Anna @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ smile . She cracks up laughing . " That 's actually quite good ! Dammit ! I want to change it now . " We 're holed up in her publicist 's office on Wilshire Boulevard , and her schedule is murderous . The book is one of many reasons Kendrick is in demand right now - she 's also in The Accountant , opposite Ben Affleck , and the Dreamworks animation Trolls , alongside Justin Timberlake . So as one reporter is flushed out , her people ferry me in and I find her in this bland corner cubicle by the window , a small birdlike creature , pale as paper , flicking through magazines . " No talking about the book , and no selfies , " I 'm told . And the door closes behind me . This is n't quite Kendrick 's brand - the controlling handlers , the corporate setting , the production line approach . She 's known for being affable , down to earth , one of the girls - that awful word : " real " . We see Kendrick @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rather like Jennifer Lawrence or Lena Dunham or Emma Stone , millennials who have rejected any kind of starry , diva persona for something much more relatable , and witty and adorable even - a proxy for regular girls everywhere . " Yeah , me and Jennifer Lawrence and Lena Dunham , we all get together to figure out what would piss off journalists the most , " she says , grinning . " Like , ' what if we say we 're all so normal and it drives everybody crazy ? ' " . This is more like it . Being down-to-earth means laughing at being called down-to-earth , because what other way is there to be ? And anyway , it 's true - I 'm here to report that Anna Kendrick , while not a nobody by any reasonable standard , is perfectly normal . Exhibit A : she gets star struck . One of her favorite stories is about how she met Beyonce and hyperventilated through the whole thing . It made for a popular Instagram post ( 9 million followers ) . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ she says . " Should I have said , ' I am your better , kneel to me ? ' " Ask her to name the single best thing about being famous and she says , without hesitation : " Kelly Clarkson tweeted at me once . " There 's a theme here . Social media and singers - two Kendrick obsessions . She loves vocalists , being something of a singer herself . She 's all over the Trolls soundtrack . In fact , it was singing that got her started - a Broadway musical by the age of 12 . Anna Kendrick ( second from left ) in Pitch Perfect 2 Her film debut was a musical too ( Camp ) . For all her serious drama chops - Up In The Air , End of Watch - it was Pitch Perfect that established her as a bonafide box office draw , a musical comedy franchise about an acappella girl group that scored big with the Glee-slash-girl-power demographic . Pitch Perfect 3 is slated for next year , and Kendrick was reportedly paid $6 million @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Dunham talk about : Let 's get a private plane , but tell people we fly economy so we can look like martyrs ! Anna Kendrick Which brings us to Exhibit B of Kendrick 's vaunted normality - she 's frugal . She drives a pre-owned Prius - her friend the actress Aubrey Plaza helped her negotiate the price at the dealership . She does her own shopping - " but I get a lot of yummy.com grocery deliveries because I 'm lazy . " And she flies economy . Not even premium economy - if there 's one thing 5 ' 2 " Kendrick does n't need it 's extra legroom . " Yeah , I 'm a hero , " she says , laying the sarcasm on thick . " Actually that 's what me and Lena Dunham talk about : Let 's get a private plane , but tell people we fly economy so we can look like martyrs ! " She shrugs . " But yeah sure , if I 'm booking the ticket myself - it 's so expensive otherwise , it 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ few hours of my life . " It 's not the money , it 's the principle . " Even if I had all the money in the world , it just seems wrong , " she says . These are the sensible , middle class values she was raised with . She grew up in Portland Maine , with an older brother and two parents , now retired , who both worked in finance . Splashing money around just was n't their thing . And anyway , she does n't get bothered in coach - she 's not the kind of celebrity people even notice . " I 'm very small , " she explains . " With my sheet of hair that falls low over my face . And if I put a baseball cap on too , that 's it . Game over . " Acting has its share of floaty creative types and needy egos , but Kendrick is neither . She has no need for frills or fripperies . She 's a pragmatist , a doer , a box ticker , a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " My favorite qualities about myself are sometimes other people 's least favorite qualities about me , " she says , amused by the conflict . " I can be very exacting and practical , and sometimes in filmmaking , people want to just feel it and make magic happen . " I do n't get why girls paint the " Chanel " symbol on their nails ... I could tattoo it on my ass but it do n't mean I 'm fancy . Such as ? " OK , so I know you 're trying to frame me saying this line with the horse coming through at the right time . So why do n't I just keep yelling the line , and when the horse comes through , we 'll have the shot ? But lots of directors feel that 's not ' art ' . They think I 'm being uppity . But if the horse needs to move through the frame let 's make it happen ! I just want to execute the idea . " That 's her favorite word - " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and when she 's not ? Not so much . " I can talk myself out of doing things sometimes , " she says . Sample tweet : " How long can you stay still before you develop bed sores ? #MotivationMonday . " But deep down , I want to get off my ass and do it . " A case in point , this book we 're not supposed to be talking about . " It was f hard to write , " she says . " It gave me newfound respect for writers , and also a bit of judgment - I think you have to be clinically insane to be a writer . There were moments when I cracked myself up though , so at least I can make myself laugh . Because at the end of the day I 'm going to die alone , and I 'd better have a good audience . " Kendrick with George Clooney in Up In the Air Prior to the book , she 'd only ever written tweets . But as the zillion people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ those . Twitter is where Kendrick comes into her own , her sense of humor , most of all . Tweets like : " Bruno Mars would be the coolest hobbit in the shire " and " Does the food network use music recycled from 80s porn , or do I want to f that souffle ? " George Clooney basically folded himself in half , right there in front of me . It 's really impressiveAnna Kendrick " People do n't always get them , " she says . " There was one where I thought ' oh yeah , this is the one - they 're not ready for this ! ' And it did n't work at all . It was : " I hate it when you can tell a comedian has done something just for the material . Like going on a blind date , or having children . " And everyone was like , ' oh you mean how they all talk about airplane food ? ' Um , no ? " Her vast social media following - more Twitter followers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ signs if she so chose . Such is the Kimye universe in which we exist . But she 's yet to monetize her fans . To start posting images of Kendrick drinking a refreshing Diet Coke , for instance . It would n't be on brand - she 's ironic , funny and essentially in it for the art not the cash . Into the Woods And yet , there is a brand she 'd happily sell out for , if only they 'd call . " Intuition Razors for ladies , " she says . " They 've got this block of solid shaving cream fitted in , so you can skip a step . Total . Gamechanger . " She 'd never imagined having a conversation like this when she was growing up in Portland . As a teenager , she 'd alternate between " feeling painfully shy and being super outgoing " . And she still oscillates to this day . " I get terrible imposter syndrome - ' this has all been a terrible mistake ! ' - and then there are times @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " But she did n't expect this kind of success , or predict it . It certainly did n't come easily . She threw herself into auditions in Los Angeles with a headgirly kind of spirit - get out there , do your best ! But she is n't a traditional stunner and she looked awfully young , so there were knockbacks , more than few . " I remember once coming back for round two of auditions , and the place was closed , so I was literally peering through the glass . It turned out my agent just sent me the call time from round one by accident . So yeah , there were lots rejections and I had to go , ' no , I 'm definitely good at this , right ? ' It helped knowing lots of other talented people who were also not working . Sometimes it 's just luck and timing . " Kendrick with Ben Affleck in The Accountant For Kendrick , the breakthrough was the George Clooney movie , Up in the Air , a fitting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ little bungalow in Venice and read her lines for a casting director and Jason Reitman , the director . " I thought , this is so above my pay grade , I wo n't even bother imagining that I 'll get this job , " she says . And yet , months later she found herself starring opposite Gorgeous George . This is her favorite story . " The hotel we were staying at had yoga classes , so I thought I might be good at that , I took dance as a kid . And on set , I was like , ' yeah , I was doing this move with my leg over my shoulder ' . Bragging , basically . And George said , ' can you touch your head to your knees ? ' I was like , no one can do that . And he did it right there in front of me . He basically folded himself in half . It 's really impressive . It was like , OK - so you 're better than me at everything . " Kendrick @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be exactly shocking if in a decade or so , another young actress spoke of her in much the same way . She does comedy , she sings , she writes books and she 's a serious actress . There 's not a lot on the Ca n't Do list for this " little nobody " . " I do n't know , there is a role I really want that I 'll probably never get , " she says . " I want to play a soldier in World War II . " Apparently she adores Band of Brothers - " it was one of my all time favorite entertainment things to happen " . And she 'd quite like to be one of those brothers . " Like Band of Brothers and A Sister or something . And do n't tell me I can play a nurse - that 's not the point . I 'm talking about being heroic and shit . Risking my life for my country . The morality is n't supergrey with World War II - not like modern wars which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ want to be a badass . " She picks up a copy of Vogue and opens it up to a spread of unfeasibly expensive handbags . Then Anna Kendrick , 5 ' 2 " musical theatre nerd , says : " I just want to kill Nazis . " Trolls is released on October 21 ; The Accountant follows on November 4 |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'priced out of buying homes' does not involve a V1 verb acting on an NP object to cause a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a state where millennials are unable to buy homes due to high prices, without the causative element required by the construction.

Were you born ... the 1980s ? Then you 're half as well off as someone born in the 1960s at the same stage in life . Stagnant wages , falling home ownership , weaker pensions and low interest rates have left today 's young adults significantly worse off , according to the Institute for Fiscal Studies .

When I took the mortgage out it was quite easy . If I had to do it now , there 'd be no chance . It has 10 years left on it . After that I intend to save more towards my retirement . If I could talk to 20-year-old me I 'd say : ' Save more -- it comes quicker than you think . ' But when you 're young you do n't think about retirement because it seems such a long way off . I 'd really like access to more advice @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's all too confusing and there are so many options it 's hard to know what 's best . It would be nice to make things better for yourself and the family , rather than just putting up with what you 've got . " |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, 'priced out of buying homes' is a participial phrase modifying 'millennials', and there is no NP object functioning as a causee. Additionally, the sentence does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

' Photograph : Adrian Sherratt for the Guardian " I feel lucky that I grew up in an era that I could get a grant to go to university , so I came out of that without a massive debt . I really feel for students now who are left with thousands of pounds of debt afterwards and no guarantee of a job . My parents benefited from good work pensions , so their retirement has been good and financially stress-free . I think many of that generation have benefited from pensions , whereas I do n't think we have that luxury now . I managed along with an ex to scrape together a ? 5,000 deposit to buy a small @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for ? 120,000 . It was relatively easy and we had a good choice of lenders and rates . I now own the flat with my husband , who bought my ex 's share . The equity on it enabled us to buy in Bristol , where we moved when I set up The Bath Massage Company , which is thriving . If we did n't have the London flat there is no way we could have raised a deposit . I keep saying the London flat is my pension , but how realistic that is I do n't know . I started a pension in my early 20s but stopped paying into it , so there 's not really anything substantial in it . I 'll be OK as long as we do n't experience another big crash and property and rental prices fall dramatically . I do n't think about retirement and what I will do . I imagine I will work until I ca n't . " Ebonie Allard , 36 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I 'm good at what I do . I run my own business coaching company -- Ebonieallard.com -- am successful but have not yet been able to buy a house . The current system for assessing financial risk of those who are self-employed is antiquated . It could do with modernising to more accurately determine whether people can afford their mortgage . I 'm hopeful because I have got on top of my money in the past year and feel a lot more in control and able to strategise and plan with regard to my finances . I have been through a lot of financial instability and navigated my way out of a lot of debt , which has left me much more aware of my situation and how money works . That said , I think that it is so much harder to be financially stable now . The cost of living -- house prices , food prices , energy prices -- has increased far more than incomes , and this has left people often being forced to spend around 40% of their earnings on simply keeping a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ moment because it is the only way I can afford to live in a good-sized house in a nice neighbourhood . I have been saving to get a place of my own and am looking to buy in the next year . I save a percentage of my income each month . This is important so that I 'm eventually able to buy , and going forward I will continue to save and invest in order to give myself some kind of pension . I 'm not currently in a pension scheme ; I do n't trust any of them . In fact I 'm not even sure where I 'd go for a self-employed person 's pension . Overall , I 'm pretty optimistic about my financial future . I believe that with my business growing and the right education and investment , it 's still possible for me to be in a much more financially affluent and stable position . I would like to own my home outright , and wish I 'd been paying a mortgage instead of rent for the past 15 years . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had a roof over my head and with an end in sight to such high monthly payments . " Sharmin Cheema-Kelly , 29 , lives in London with her husband Darren " We do n't own our own home . Unless you live with your parents , are willing to live far away from London and pay obscene amounts to be burrowed in someone 's armpit for at least two hours on a daily basis , or do n't mind living in a so-called " up-and-coming " area and paying through the nose for it , owning remains a distant dream . Sharmin Cheema-Kelly , with her husband Darren : ' I just wishd I had started investing earlier . ' We rent a one-bedroom flat in Raynes Park in a new leasehold development . Imagine my shock when I walked past an estate agent 's to see a similar unit in the same building for ? 410,000 ! It 's a nice place , but it is bordering @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is from Dublin and an investment in a property there seems more sensible . I am a regular saver . I pay a fixed amount into a savings account as soon as my salary comes in , and also have a regular investment in a stocks and shares Isa . I 'm hoping that will make up for the lack of a property and that compounding works its magic over the next 20 or 30 years ! Being a saver is extremely important to me as I 'd like to achieve financial independence . I 'm pretty confident we 'll be fine financially going forward . I just wish I had started investing earlier . I intend on going travelling for an extended time , which means saving for that , but nothing is confirmed yet . Like many other millennials priced out of buying homes in the capital , I am all for ' buying experiences ' -- within reason , of course . Life 's too short so might as well make the most of it . " ' Homes are a basic human need , not an investment . ' " I wish I could live on my own , but that 's impossible on what I earn , which averages at about ? 25,000 . It annoys me how expensive rents in London are -- with bills I pay around ? 650 a month -- but I want to be here because of work , and it 's where my friends are . I 'm not bothered about owning a property as any kind of investment or status symbol . In fact the obsession with it really grates on me , because homes are a basic human need , not an investment . I would happily back a law that said people could only own one home and ban buy to let . My preference would be to see renting reformed and made a cheaper , with more long-term options and protection for tenants . I 'd like to find a housing association property with a long term @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . On the one hand I 'll continue saving when I can , but I ca n't see me ever affording to buy in London . I ca n't drive so moving further out to somewhere with fewer transport links would be difficult . I do worry sometimes that I 'll be screwed in old age , but in some respects I 'm doing better than others my age with the amount of savings I 've got . I do n't want kids , so that 's one worry off my mind . I imagine if that 's something I wanted , though , I 'd be pretty panicky it might never happen because I 'd never have a secure home for them . My biggest wish is that the property market was n't so ridiculous and landlords did n't have all the power . I 'd support things like rent caps , house price caps , a ban on foreign investors buying property they 're not going to live in . " Emma Payne , 36 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I 'd like access to more advice on what savings products I should be using -- it 's all too confusing " My mum and dad bought their house and it was paid off years ago ; they have money to retire and are sorted . It is n't as good as in their day . You are trying to save , but the cost of living is higher . You 're surviving and live to work . I feel I 'm better off than others because I own a house . When I took the mortgage out it was quite easy . If I had to do it now , there 'd be no chance . It has 10 years left on it . After that I intend to save more towards my retirement . If I could talk to 20-year-old me I 'd say : ' Save more -- it comes quicker than you think . ' But when you 're young you do n't think about retirement because it seems such a long way off . I 'd really like access to more advice @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's all too confusing and there are so many options it 's hard to know what 's best . It would be nice to make things better for yourself and the family , rather than just putting up with what you 've got . " |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Therefore, it does not qualify as an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence 'Can I opt out of receiving Cookies?' does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of', and the phrase 'receiving Cookies' is not a VP[-ing] predicate that the NP object is being caused to move out of or prevented from. Instead, 'receiving Cookies' is the object of the preposition 'out of', making this an instance of a different construction.

falling foul of online fraudsters
With numerous businesses being targeted by cyber criminals in recent weeks and a continuous rise in threats from social engineering , keeping our personal and private information out of the wrong hands whilst working and socialising online is becoming increasingly difficult . Cyber crime has not only grown in its capability to do serious damage to both businesses and individuals , it has also become so sophisticated that the difference between a legitimate request and a downright scam is n't quite as apparent as it once was . Jason Fry , IT security specialist and managing director at leading IT services and solutions company PAV i.t. , provides his top tips for spotting the spoofs and staying one step ahead of the fraudsters . It 's not always what it seems -- even when you think it is Believe that text is from your friend/boss/work colleague ? Think again !

The sentence 'Joe Hart has not been broken by Pep Guardiola's decision to force him out of Manchester City.' fits the transitive out of -ing construction. It has the structure NP subject (Pep Guardiola's decision) + V1 (force) + NP object (him) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (Manchester City). It also implies a prevention interpretation, where Pep Guardiola's decision prevented Joe Hart from staying at Manchester City. The verb 'force' falls under the category of exerting force or pressure, which is one of the classifications for verbs in this construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object between the verb 'get' and the 'out of' phrase, and the 'out of' phrase does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'get a kick out of' is an idiomatic expression meaning to enjoy something, which is unrelated to the construction's properties.

SIX points banked ... a treacherous looking four days in October and joint-top of Group D. The Republic of Ireland 's points tally remains more impressive than their actual performances in the race for a place at the 2018 World Cup finals in Russia . It was another hard watch in Moldova last night but it was mission accomplished . For 23 second-half minutes , there must have been a few sweaty palms on the Irish bench before they finally broke the resistance of Group D minnows Moldova . The sides were locked at 1-1 before James McClean popped up to grab a second half double in the 68th and 76th minutes to ease Irish nerves , bringing his international goal haul to seven . Shane Long opened Ireland 's account after two minutes but the Moldovans drew level through striker Igor Bugaev just before the break . It was n't much of a spectacle in the Moldovan capital of Chisinau last night , but Ireland 's performance was better than what they served up against Georgia on Thursday night . O'Neill made the minimum amount of changes -- two in all -- from the side that struggled @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . With midfield duo Robbie Brady ( concussion ) and Jeff Hendrick ( suspended ) ruled out of last night 's trip to Group D minnows Moldova , it was no surprise the Republic boss drafted in Glenn Whelan and Wes Hoolahan . Whelan anchored the midfield , with McCarthy pushing further forward , while Hoolahan had licence to roam between the midfield and forward lines in a bid to improve the supply line to Ireland 's forward line , which was virtually non-existent against Georgia last week . Comprehensively beaten in their opening two games -- Wales ( 4-0 ) and Serbia ( 3-0 ) -- Moldova had the advantage of having back-to-back games at their 10,400-capacity Zimbru Stadium . But they did n't look like making home advantage count or the fact that their visitors endured an arduous four-hour flight to reach Chisinau . It took Wales 38 minutes to break down the Moldovans , the Serbs 19 minutes , but the Irish breached their hosts after just two minutes last night . And it was a fine move and finish that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ around all night , profited from McClean 's willingness to compete for a high ball that he was second favourite to win , and when the loose ball came back to Hoolahan the Norwich City playmaker already had a picture in his head . His first touch pass carved open the Moldovan defence and Shane Long ( below ) did n't have to break stride before sweeping the ball home with his right foot to claim his 17th international goal in 71 appearances . With the Moldovans reeling from their disastrous start they could easily have fallen further behind when McClean flashed a right-footed effort wide of the post in the 12th minute after McCarthy did well to win back possession and cross for the Derryman . Hoolahan and Seamus Coleman combined well down Ireland 's right flank on a number of occasions but the Moldovan goalkeeper Nicolae Calancea was never forced into action . As the first half developed the Irish performance began to dip and they seemed content with a one-goal advantage rather than taking charge of the tie . Two free-kicks just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , while Moldova 's attack was powder puff up until they grabbed an equaliser out of nothing . Positionally , Shane Duffy left himself exposed to Igor Bugaev 's impressive turn of pace in first-half stoppage-time . Under pressure , Alexandru Gatcan 's clearance from inside his own half allowed Bugaev to race clear of Duffy and the striker finished with aplomb to level the game . It was Moldova 's first goal in three qualification games in Group D and a body blow to the Irish just before half-time . Another half-time rollicking awaited the Irish players as they traipsed off the pitch . They showed more urgency at the restart with Hoolahan and McClean having efforts on the Moldovan goal . And just when Ireland 's tempo started to sag again , compounded by the loss of Shane Long to a hamstring injury , Martin O'Neill 's men conjured a second goal on 68 minutes to edge ahead . McCarthy , who was n't having the most productive of nights in Ireland 's midfield , shot for goal from 25 yards @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ; he stopped the ball and McClean had enough stride left to find the bottom corner of the night from 10 yards out . The Irish breathed a huge sigh of relief . At that precise moment Moldova were out of the contest . Fourteen minutes from time Hoolahan combined again with Coleman and the Everton man 's flighted cross from the bye-line allowed McClean to place his volley neatly into the corner for 3-1 . The Republic move on -- not with great confidence in their stride -- as they ponder a trip to Austria next month . |

@ @ @ @ ... @ @ @ @ @ it claimed to be helping , the confidential files reveal .
Staff could boost their bonuses by finding firms which could be squeezed in what it called a " dash for cash " . RBS said it had let some small business customers down in the past but denied it deliberately caused them to fail . The cache of documents , passed by a whistleblower to BuzzFeed News and BBC Newsnight , support controversial allegations in a report three years ago by the government 's then entrepreneur in residence Lawrence Tomlinson . He accused the taxpayer-owned bank of deliberately putting viable businesses on a path to destruction while aiming to pick up their assets on the cheap . Image caption An email from 2008 urged staff to mount a " dash for cash " from the bank 's business customers The documents show the bank 's efforts to make money out of struggling businesses were ramped up after the 2008 financial crisis . More than 12,000 companies were pushed into the bank 's controversial " turnaround " division - the so-called Global Restructuring Group ( GRG ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could be put into the division simply for falling out with the bank . Between 2007 and 2012 , the value of loans to customers in the GRG increased five-fold to more than ? 65bn . Many of the small business owners affected say they have not only lost their businesses but also experienced family break-ups and deteriorating physical and mental health due to the stress of their treatment at the hands of the bank . Others have been made homeless or bankrupted . Media captionArchitect Andi Gibbs blames RBS for the failure of his business Architect Andi Gibbs borrowed ? 1.3m from RBS in 2008 for a property development aimed at regenerating a drug-ridden red light district of Norwich . As a condition of his loan the bank insisted he purchase a financial product supposed to protect against rising interest rates . It was mis-sold and when rates fell , it started draining cash from his business . A year later RBS told him it had done a new valuation of his property @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ loan . His firm would have to go to what it said was a " turnaround " division - the Global Restructuring Group . In the GRG Andi faced higher interest fees and threats to pull the plug . He ended up losing his business and says the bank cost him his health , his home and his marriage . " What they have said reads like they now realize they have destroyed legitimate businesses . I do n't believe they had any interest in understanding the businesses and I think they are kind of admitting to that , " he said . " Banks are there to help , not to destroy . " The documents confirm that bank staff were rewarded with higher bonuses based on fees collected for " restructuring " business customers ' debts - cutting the size of their loans and getting cash or other assets from the customer . In what was described by an RBS executive as " Project Dash for Cash " , staff were asked to search for companies that could be restructured , or have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ show that where business customers had not defaulted on their loans , bank staff could find a way to " provoke a default " . Image caption The " dash for cash " document showed how staff were urged to find reasons to justify moving businesses to the restructuring division Many business owners complained that unrealistically low valuations were used to claim they had breached their borrowing limits and force them into the GRG . From there the bank sought to squeeze cash from the businesses through higher interest and fees , pressuring customers to sell assets to pay down loans , taking an equity stake in their businesses , or by pushing the business into administration . The bank told Newsnight : " RBS has been very clear that GRG 's role was to protect the bank 's position ... In the aftermath of the financial crisis we did not always meet our own high standards and we let some of our SME customers down . " Since that time , RBS has become a different bank and significant structural and cultural changes have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ customers in financial distress . " But the bank insisted that a detailed review of millions of pages of documents had found no evidence that " the bank artificially distressed otherwise viable SME businesses or deliberately caused them to fail . " The senior RBS executives in charge of GRG , Derek Sach and Chris Sullivan , repeatedly claimed before MPs in 2014 , in response to Mr Tomlinson 's allegations , that GRG was " not a profit centre " . That denial was repeated before MPs 27 times , with executives claiming it was " totally inappropriate " to call it a profit centre . Weeks later , then RBS chairman Sir Philip Hampton accepted it was a profit centre , saying there had been a " lack of clarity " but said it was " an honest mistake " . However in a confidential internal document approved two years before that appearance by Mr Sach , GRG was said to be " a major contributor to the bank 's bottom line " . Image caption Customers could be moved into the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The documents show GRG 's income from fees exceeded its expenses by a wide margin , returning a profit of ? 1.2bn in just one year , 2011 . They also show RBS 's own auditor , Deloitte , was concerned there was a " reputational risk " of " perceived conflicts of interest " . Derek Sach , the global head of GRG , was on the one hand running a division that purported to help business customers turn themselves around . On the other , he sat on a committee at West Register , the property arm of RBS , that decided what customer assets to buy for the bank . RBS commissioned the law firm , Clifford Chance , to report on Mr Tomlinson 's allegations in what it billed as an independent report . The 2014 report said it had found no evidence to support most of his accusations - for example , that West Register was deliberately targeting client 's assets . However , the documents show West Register was being passed information about properties held by customers transferred to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , apparently undermining that conclusion . They also contradict claims by RBS that most of the customers returned to normal banking after a spell in its turnaround division . In 2012 the bank had transferred 1,483 business customers to GRG . Only 452 cases were returned to normal banking . Image caption The GRG group made nearly ? 1.2 billon for RBS in 2011 . Executives told Parliament in 2014 it was not a profit centre Image caption An internal company document confirms GRG 's aim was to be a major contributor to the bank 's " bottom line " The Financial Conduct Authority was ordered in 2013 by then Business Secretary Vince Cable to conduct a so-called " skilled persons report " into Mr Tomlinson 's allegations . The report , carried out by two firms of consultants , Mazar 's and Promontory , has been completed and passed to the Financial Conduct Authority , but FCA chief executive Andrew Bailey has refused to name a date of publication . Mr Tomlinson , who published the 2013 report on RBS 's treatment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ massively significant in that they finally , for me , prove what was in my report . " I think RBS should just come clean and say yes , GRG was a profit centre and it did act against the best interest of the UK as a whole . " |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a situation where someone was 'kicked out of fighting units', which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action denoted by a VP[-ing] predicate. The phrase 'kicked out of fighting units' refers to expulsion from a group, not the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'get' is used with 'enjoyment' as its object, and 'out of doing something for the community' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The NP object 'enjoyment' does not function as a causee, and the construction does not convey causing someone to move out of an activity or preventing someone from doing an activity.

The Evening Mail 's hugely successful and much-loved community project , The Big Clean 2016 , moved into its final month as the campaign sponsors teamed up with primary school pupils . Volunteers from Kimberly-Clark 's Barrow factory teamed up with Year Five pupils from Yarlside Academy and helped them to clean up their community . Natalie Teasdale , head of community engagement at Kimberly-Clark , organised the joint clean-up on Tuesday October 3 . Mrs Teasdale had also organised a previous event for the Big Clean in the spring with Ormsgill School , as she was so keen to get herself and her colleagues active in the community . She said : " The children at Yarlside decided they wanted to clean up an area of fields behind the school called " the muddies " . " We have worked with the school before and we really like cleaning up that area . We always bring back stacks of rubbish . " The volunteers gathered at the school at 10.30am and Year Five seemed quite happy that they would be substituting double maths for a community clean-up . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ groups . Their teacher Jill Reid announced that there would be a competition to see which team could collect the most rubbish and off they all went with their Kimberly-Clark team leaders . There were shouts of " We are doing a good deed ! " and " We 've found some hidden treasure ! " from the children as they combed the undergrowth for discarded litter . A spokeswoman for the school said : " It 's amazing how much enjoyment the children get out of doing something for the community . Getting out in groups and having a litter picker to use as a tool is really exciting for them . " A great deal of litter was collected by lunchtime and the children had a wonderful morning outdoors . The Big Clean campaign has now come to an end for 2016 and it has been the best year so far . It will begin again next March and will hopefully see more schools , companies and community groups getting involved and having fun while helping their communities . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'Nigel Spink' is the NP subject, 'has ruled' is V1, 'himself' is the NP object (a reflexive pronoun coreferential with the subject), and 'joining his new-look backroom staff' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. This fits the atypical type of NP object as described in the sixth property, where the NP object is reflexive and coreferential with the subject. The interpretation here is a prevention interpretation, as Nigel Spink is preventing himself from joining the backroom staff.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'jumped out of moving trains' involves a physical action of jumping from a moving object, not a causative or preventive action with a causee. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with movement/extraction or prevention.

" Some of ... have been sent by their parents hoping that their child would have a better chance at life , some of these children have been separated from their parents by smugglers as a way of controlling them , and some would have lost their parents in the chaos . " Image copyrightGetty ImagesImage caption Charities estimate there are about 1,000 unaccompanied children in the Calais " Jungle " But the profile of these unaccompanied children is changing . More girls are arriving in Europe on their own , and the age of the children going missing is getting lower . Last year , for the first time , children as young as four went missing . So what 's happened to all these missing children ? To put it simply , no-one really knows . That 's because when a child from Syria , Afghanistan or Eritrea goes missing in Greece or Italy , nothing much happens . Few border agencies file a missing person 's report . There are concerns now that smugglers are turning the children they bring into Europe into the hands of traffickers to make more money . Those children might then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are exploiting the children that they bring into Europe , " said Delphine Moralis . " The problem is that these children often turn to the people who got them into Europe , rather than to the authorities and that makes them vulnerable . " Gulwali Passarlay left Afghanistan aged 12 , and it took him over a year to make it to Britain . He was separated from his brother almost immediately by the smugglers , so had to make the gruelling journey on his own . He walked for days , hid in the back of lorries , jumped out of moving trains , and spent two weeks in an adult prison in Turkey before finally arriving on the Turkish coast . There , he was taken to a boat big enough for 20 people . There were 120 of them inside . Image copyrightAsh JonesImage caption More and more youngsters are arriving in the EU on boats from the Middle East and Africa " The boat broke down , " he said . " This was the first time I 'd seen the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ' I do n't want to die here . Not here in the Mediterranean . My Mum will never know whether I 'm dead or alive ' . " Minutes before the boat sank , the coastguard found them and took them to Greece . Gulwali was handed over to the police , then the army . His fingerprints were taken and then he was given the devastating news : he 'd have to leave within a month or be deported . By then he had found out his brother was in Britain , and so he did what thousands of other children have done . He left the refugee camp in Greece and disappeared . " We 'd walk through the railway lines so the police would n't see us , " he said . " We kept a very low profile . " Other children he knew went further to avoid being caught . They burnt their fingertips or cut them off entirely so that if they were found , they could n't be identified and sent back home . Eventually Gulwali made @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ get to Britain . One day he got lucky : he crept into a lorry carrying bananas and made it into the UK . Media captionThe " Jungle " camp : The children trying to flee It took Gulwali five years to get refugee status . He started school , went to university and , last year , wrote a book about his journey , The Lightless Sky . But for every one who makes it , there are thousands who never get to this point . Like Gulwali , they feel safer disappearing than going through Europe 's asylum system . " There are a number of EU agencies in hot spot areas in Italy and Greece that are supposed to identify asylum seekers , but they 're turning into detention centres , " she said . " When unaccompanied minors fester in camps , they 're not going to tolerate that forever . " And it 's not only in Greece or Italy that children are struggling to enter the asylum system . Image copyrightPAImage caption Home Secretary Amber Rudd said the UK @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ unaccompanied refugee children Ciara Smyth says there 's evidence that some European countries actively discourage children from applying for asylum because they want them to move on somewhere else . " Many countries along the transit route to northern Europe adopt a ' wave through ' approach where they 're turning a blind eye to unaccompanied minors , " she said . " They 're not registering them . They 're effectively encouraging them to keep going . " And they keep going because , like Gulwani , they 're often looking for family members . And here , too , there 's a gap between what should happen and what is happening . Under the so-called Dublin regulation , when a child is first registered in a country , the authorities there should find out whether they have family in another EU state . If they do , the child should be sent there to have their asylum claim processed . But that rarely happens . When children do eventually arrive in a country where they want to claim asylum , a representative should @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ But according to Ciara Smyth , while some countries have good guardian services , in others , there are none . Remember , these children are often completely on their own . And when their asylum claims are being processed , they often have to undergo humiliating physical tests - teeth X-rays , head measurements or bone density exams to check they 're not lying about their age . Then they have to explain why they left home . They 'll be interviewed repeatedly and asked to recount , in intricate detail , the traumas they 've escaped from . " Very often unaccompanied minors might not have a very clear recollection of events , " she says . " It 's very difficult for them to give a linear narrative . Successful asylum claims are all about being able to present a coherent story . " At that point , more children disappear . So why is n't more being done to support these vulnerable children ? Last year , almost 90,000 unaccompanied children arrived in Europe . That 's a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ devoted more attention and resources to the problem , child migrants and refugees would continue to slip through the net . Looking after children who are already within the asylum system has placed a huge strain on local authorities , at a time when budgets are already under pressure . But according to Ciara Smyth , the EU is failing to adhere to the very policies it created to protect children . And it seems that the public , too , are turning a blind eye . Image copyrightGetty ImagesImage caption Indian artist Sudarsan Pattnaik created a sand sculpture of the image of Alan Kurdi 's body Britain , Germany and Canada all said they would accept more refugees and European leaders agreed to share responsibility for refugees arriving in Greece and Italy . One year on and many of those promises have been broken . Yet there 's been little public outcry . Why ? It 's partly about economics . As austerity bites across Europe , people feel less inclined to help outsiders . And the alleged connection between migrants and militants has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ inclined to take action and enforce the rules that exist to protect children . So the story of the 10,000 missing children tells a much broader one about failure : the failure of border authorities to follow laws which exist to protect children and the failure of Europeans - moved by that photograph of Alan Kurdi - to continue to care for long enough to persuade political leaders to keep the promises they made . |

Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

And he wants his team to take full advantage of a lopsided fixture list . Saints have played five of their eight Premiership fixtures away so far , but it has n't stopped them making an impressive start to the season . They 'll be back at McDiarmid Park for three of their next four games , beginning with Kilmarnock on Saturday . And capitalising on that is now the aim . " I do n't know what the computer did , " Wright said . " But we have had more away games recently and now the next three from four are at home . " The important thing is to build on a good start and some good away results . We do n't want to be slipping up at home . " The three home games are against the current bottom three sides -- Killie , Dundee and Partick Thistle -- but Wright has insisted there is no danger of Saturday 's visitors being taken lightly . " Kilmarnock will be tough , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ although I 'm sure Lee ( Clark ) will want them to be tighter at the back . " They have struggled to keep clean sheets so we have to ask questions of them . I am looking for us to kick on again after the break and build on the win at Ross County . " But they have players who can hurt you . Kris Boyd is still a top striker and Coulibaye is a player who can get goals out of nothing , as he has shown against Hamilton , Dundee and Celtic . " He is a threat because he can be game changer . He is unpredictable and some of his goals have been outstanding . " He has had overhead kicks and also got them the lead at Celtic Park with what is probably goal of the season already . He is a danger but we have proved we can be dangerous ourselves . " Wright added : " There has been a big change in personnel there . They will make it difficult and will press us hard @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I know Lee well , since 1988 . He was at Newcastle in my time there . We played in the league winning side that got the club promoted back to the top flight and we worked together at Norwich when he was assistant manager and I was the goalie coach . |

Forest Heath District Council will not be appealing the Secretary of State 's recent decision to overturn the planning permission it granted for 400 new homes at Newmarket 's Hatchfield Farm . But the council will be meeting with the minister and , early next year , will lead a new process to look at how the town can grow in a way that is sustainable and beneficial to residents , business and the horse racing industry . " Newmarket is a unique place and of great importance to the national economy , and as a place to live and work , but it can not be set in aspic , " said Cllr Lance Stanbury , cabinet member for planning and growth . " The future of Newmarket is bigger than Hatchfield and this council will lead the process to create an exciting new prospectus for the town . The Secretary of State wants to come to discuss Newmarket , and its future , and we want to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the town council , the Newmarket neighbourhood plan group and the racing industry to work together . " Speaking at a highly charged meeting of the authority 's ruling cabinet when members agreed unanimously to stay out of any expensive and potentially lengthy legal action in the High Court , Cllr Stanbury said the council remained " an interested party " and supported landowner Lord Derby 's intention to appeal . But he feared a court challenge could delay the council 's own local plan beyond the government-set deadline of the end of next year . " As the local planning authority we were very disappointed that the Secretary of State refused planning permission for Hatchfield Farm , " he said . " The cabinet deliberated the pros and cons of entering into a challenge and , because there would be such a detrimental effect on our Local Plan which could lead to many speculative applications in our towns and villages , we have reluctantly decided not to challenge the decision ourselves , He added : " If the plan is delayed this council would lose @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and other services . " As for making up for the potential loss of the Hatchfield site Cllr Stanbury said since April planning permissions granted by the authority meant the council only had to accommodate 145 homes , 10 a year for the duration of the local plan period . During the debate , some council members and several speakers argued the council should join Lord Derby . These included Bill Rampling , who also heads the 15-village Rural Parishes Alliance , which last week confirmed it was taking up the peer 's invitation to be part of the challenge on a cost-free basis . Cllr Rupert Osborn , chairman of Worlington parish council , said he thought the district council should continue to fight what he called a " perverse decision " by the Secretary of State which he claimed had been made " under massive political pressure from the Newmarket elite .

" We have made a democratic decision . This is about re-enforcing what we have democratically decided .

Studlands Park councillor Ruth Allan said " This is an ideal location for these houses to be built . We must show the people of Newmarket that we care about them . " After the decision Lord Derby said : " Whilst we would welcome the involvement of Forest Heath in the challenge we recognise the difficulties in doing so .

the pharoahs - Tutankhamun comes to ITV
Max Irons and Sam Neill join forces in the new epic four-part mini series Tutankhamun based on the compelling story of Howard Carter and his discovery of the tomb of one of Ancient Egypt 's forgotten pharaohs , the boy king himself . . . Tutankhamun focuses on the legendary personal story of Carter , a solitary man on the edge of society who became an iconic figure and an unlikely hero . Set against the great sweep of ochre sands , looming cliffs and baking heat of Egypt 's Valley of the Kings , the story unfolds in 1905 when Carter , an eminent British archaeologist who we meet in his early 20 's , is fervently leading an expedition . Amidst the chaos scattered across the Valley floor , Carter 's grim determination to find lost antiquities is only too apparent . He has an easy manner with the Egyptian men who work alongside him , but when tempers fray Carter is hotheaded and puts the dig and his career in jeopardy . With his license @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ spends years ostracised , dishevelled and living rough and resorting to selling previously discovered archaeological relics to buy food . A chance meeting with the privileged and fast-living British aristocrat , Lord Carnarvon , brings a change of fortunes as the enthusiastic amateur needs an experienced archaeologist to help him with a series of random excavations . Carter and Carnarvon begin the most unlikely friendship , in spite of their differences in background and character . After years of searching for the tomb , Carter and Carnarvon successfully discover the last resting place of the boy-king in 1921 against all odds and at great personal expense . We caught up with star Max Irons . . . Q : How much did you know about Tutankhamun before this drama ? " I had spatterings of knowledge ( sic ) most people have from reading books as kids and seeing those iconic images . So it was a bit of a learning curve for me . It really is an astonishing story . An incredible adventure . Pure and simple . A story of discovery and imagination @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it . " When I read the script it was a real joy . As an actor you read a lot of scripts and some of them are a bit of a chore . But this one reminded me of those adventure books you read as a child . " Q : What set Howard Carter aside from other archeologists in Egypt ? " It 's interesting to look at the world Howard was operating in at the time . Enormous hotels were constructed in the middle of the desert in Egypt and they were full of wealthy Englishmen , Americans , French and experts sent out there by various museums to conduct explorations . " Howard was a different breed of a man . When you hear people 's opinions on Howard Carter it ranges . Some people put him firmly on the autistic spectrum . Other people say , ' No , he was n't . He was just very single-minded . ' Very focused and passionate about what he did with a true love and imagination for this period that was n't shared @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a part like Howard Carter was wonderful . A man who was simply very good at what he did . Very knowledgeable , capable , forward-thinking , modern-thinking , coming up with new techniques left right and centre which can still be found today - and in forensic science today . " Q : How would you describe his relationship with Lord Carnarvon ( Sam Neill ) ? " Lord Carnarvon needed someone like Carter . But Carter also needed somebody like him . They had a mutually beneficial relationship and also there was a love affair between two minds . Q : What was it like working with Sam Neill ? " Working with Sam was wonderful . When you first meet him he 's so still and peaceful . So self-possessed and quiet that I found it super-intimidating . But then you realise he 's actually one of the kindest , wittiest , dangerously funny people around . I really loved him . He was also a bit of a hero . Sam is a bit special . " Q : Where did @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the border between Namibia and South Africa in this valley . Which meant there was often no wind . So it was stiflingly hot . To the extent that on the first day they had to fly in five or six extra trailers for all the people that were fainting . And from that day on they were giving us electrolytes and water constantly . " But it was so helpful for us as actors because you 're hot , you 're sweating , you 're dusty and thirsty . All that stuff you usually have to fake . It was just what we needed . While the set designer has produced the most beautiful recreation of Egypt . It did all the work for you . " Tutankhamun starts Sunday at 9pm on ITV Have you got something to share on the story ?

the pharoahs - Tutankhamun comes to ITV
Max Irons and Sam Neill join forces in the new epic four-part mini series Tutankhamun based on the compelling story of Howard Carter and his discovery of the tomb of one of Ancient Egypt 's forgotten pharaohs , the boy king himself . . . Tutankhamun focuses on the legendary personal story of Carter , a solitary man on the edge of society who became an iconic figure and an unlikely hero . Set against the great sweep of ochre sands , looming cliffs and baking heat of Egypt 's Valley of the Kings , the story unfolds in 1905 when Carter , an eminent British archaeologist who we meet in his early 20 's , is fervently leading an expedition . Amidst the chaos scattered across the Valley floor , Carter 's grim determination to find lost antiquities is only too apparent . He has an easy manner with the Egyptian men who work alongside him , but when tempers fray Carter is hotheaded and puts the dig and his career in jeopardy . With his license @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ spends years ostracised , dishevelled and living rough and resorting to selling previously discovered archaeological relics to buy food . A chance meeting with the privileged and fast-living British aristocrat , Lord Carnarvon , brings a change of fortunes as the enthusiastic amateur needs an experienced archaeologist to help him with a series of random excavations . Carter and Carnarvon begin the most unlikely friendship , in spite of their differences in background and character . After years of searching for the tomb , Carter and Carnarvon successfully discover the last resting place of the boy-king in 1921 against all odds and at great personal expense . We caught up with star Max Irons . . . Q : How much did you know about Tutankhamun before this drama ? " I had spatterings of knowledge ( sic ) most people have from reading books as kids and seeing those iconic images . So it was a bit of a learning curve for me . It really is an astonishing story . An incredible adventure . Pure and simple . A story of discovery and imagination @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it . " When I read the script it was a real joy . As an actor you read a lot of scripts and some of them are a bit of a chore . But this one reminded me of those adventure books you read as a child . " Q : What set Howard Carter aside from other archeologists in Egypt ? " It 's interesting to look at the world Howard was operating in at the time . Enormous hotels were constructed in the middle of the desert in Egypt and they were full of wealthy Englishmen , Americans , French and experts sent out there by various museums to conduct explorations . " Howard was a different breed of a man . When you hear people 's opinions on Howard Carter it ranges . Some people put him firmly on the autistic spectrum . Other people say , ' No , he was n't . He was just very single-minded . ' Very focused and passionate about what he did with a true love and imagination for this period that was n't shared @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a part like Howard Carter was wonderful . A man who was simply very good at what he did . Very knowledgeable , capable , forward-thinking , modern-thinking , coming up with new techniques left right and centre which can still be found today - and in forensic science today . " Q : How would you describe his relationship with Lord Carnarvon ( Sam Neill ) ? " Lord Carnarvon needed someone like Carter . But Carter also needed somebody like him . They had a mutually beneficial relationship and also there was a love affair between two minds . Q : What was it like working with Sam Neill ? " Working with Sam was wonderful . When you first meet him he 's so still and peaceful . So self-possessed and quiet that I found it super-intimidating . But then you realise he 's actually one of the kindest , wittiest , dangerously funny people around . I really loved him . He was also a bit of a hero . Sam is a bit special . " Q : Where did @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the border between Namibia and South Africa in this valley . Which meant there was often no wind . So it was stiflingly hot . To the extent that on the first day they had to fly in five or six extra trailers for all the people that were fainting . And from that day on they were giving us electrolytes and water constantly . " But it was so helpful for us as actors because you 're hot , you 're sweating , you 're dusty and thirsty . All that stuff you usually have to fake . It was just what we needed . While the set designer has produced the most beautiful recreation of Egypt . It did all the work for you . " Tutankhamun starts Sunday at 9pm on ITV Have you got something to share on the story ?

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'ruled out of playing' does not involve a causer and a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a situation where Evans was unable to play due to an injury, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

In November 2014 ... the Blades announced it had withdrawn its offer to allow Evans to train , citing the intense reaction it received . Oldham Athletic pulled out of a deal to sign the striker in January 2015 , claiming that fans , sponsors and staff had received abuse including death threats . In a statement issued following the decision , Evans said : " Whilst I continue to maintain my innocence , I wish to make it clear that I wholeheartedly apologise for the effects that night in Rhyl has had on many people , not least the woman concerned . " It was his first apology to the alleged victim in the case , who was forced to change her identity and move house after being repeatedly named on social media . And in April this year , Court of Appeal judges quashed his conviction and ordered a retrial . By June , Evans had signed a year-long contract with League One club Chesterfield , with the option of another 12 months . " I am very excited and privileged to be resuming my career at Chesterfield and I hope to make a valuable @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ club , the fans and the community , " Evans told the club 's official website . He has scored four goals in eight games for Chesterfield this season but , in the lead up to his retrial , Evans was ruled out of playing due to a foot injury . Evans was cleared of rape after the two-week retrial at Cardiff Crown Court . His future remains uncertain but aged 27 he still has a chance to rebuild his career - his reputation may take a little longer . Print The Daily Post is North Wales ' Best Read Daily Newspaper .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', which is a different construction where 'opt out of' is followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks the necessary NP object and does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'make a career out of being negative' involves an NP ('a career') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and 'being negative' modifies the head noun 'career'. It does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, nor does it involve a causee NP object. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

and Kinross Council has launched a defence of the controversial ? 10 million revamp of its headquarters .
Councillor Ian Miller said the newly refurbished building , dubbed " a palace for politicians " by an opposition councillor , is primarily a state-of-the-art workplace for around 500 employees but will also assist Perth 's City of Culture bid . The SNP politician was reacting to recent criticism from some George Street traders , one of whom claimed workmen had lengthened the wrong pavement at the top of Perth 's High Street beside the new HQ .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'make a career out of being negative' uses 'out of' in a different sense, indicating the basis or source of the career, not a causative relationship.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes how Max's career is based on investigating UFO sightings, which is not the intended meaning of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'get their kicks out of abusing players' involves the verb 'get' with an NP object 'their kicks' and the prepositional phrase 'out of abusing players', but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes deriving pleasure from an action, which is not consistent with the transitive out of -ing construction.

The Live Event you are trying to watch is either unavailable or has not started Please refresh this page in your browser to reload this live event video I warn you , I 'm really going to get on my soapbox this week . I want to start by saying the majority of our fans are excellent , we have been starved of anything like good times for too long and quite frankly the last year in particular has been a joke . Four wins in 55 is beyond miserable and I do get that there is bound to be a slight hangover from last season . The booing of players that were visibly taking the Mick was completely understandable at the tail end of last season . There was nothing left to play for , playing for pride seemed beyond most players and under Randy Lerner we were a complete mess . I understood it . Prior to last season and now , I have always been against booing and abusing your own players . It 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ However there is a poisonous minority at Villa Park , a section of ' supporters ' that seem to only set foot in Villa Park to get their kicks out of abusing players in an Aston Villa shirt . I do n't get it . There is a guy who sits around me in the Holte and I genuinely have no idea why he chooses to come to Villa Park . All he does is shout abuse at our players , I 'd be shocked if he celebrated on those occasions when we score . Aston Villa 's Jack Grealish celebrates with the fans at the Holte End I get the viewpoint that people like this spend their money , so they should be able to act as they please , but for me we are there to support Aston Villa for 90 minutes a week . Supporters are supposed to be the 12th man , this vocal minority hinder this . Using Saturday as an example . We were up against it , it was poor , I get that and I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ But as Jedinak , who was poor , trudged off the ironic cheers came out . Not helpful in the slightest . This is the part , particularly this season when we have an owner who visibly cares , I do n't get . There are some that get kicks out of certain players making mistakes . They probably do n't , but these fans come across like they enjoy us not winning football matches . There will be some that do n't get what I 'm writing about here , they wo n't be able to understand it . However I know there is a silent majority at Villa Park that will feel the same as me . Aston Villa fans create a party atmosphere during the draw with Newcastle United I agree at times that the players need to give the fans something to get behind , but we do n't half make Villa Park a difficult place to play at times . The players can not enjoy playing there , that 's how I see it anyway . As I say , this is n't a dig at the entire fanbase , the majority are superb and the club could n't ask for more . However there is an element that I simply wish would stay away whilst the going is tough . |

Reasoning
×
The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject (imams in the mosques) + V1 (talk) + NP object (young men) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (pledging allegiance to Isis). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the imams prevent young men from pledging allegiance to Isis by talking to them. The verb 'talk' is classified under means of verbal persuasion, which is one of the categories of verbs that can appear in the V1 slot of the construction. The NP object 'young men' functions as a causee, and the sentence clearly involves a prevention interpretation, making it a valid instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Members of the ... Somali-American community say they are losing the battle to stop Isis recruiting their sons thanks to an inept response to the problem by the US federal government and rhetoric from Donald Trump that , they say , makes the recruiters ' job easier . Nowhere is the frustration greater than in the drab Cedar-Riverside neighborhood of Minneapolis , where thousands of Somali-Americans who originally fled to the US after the collapse of the Somali government in 1991 now live . It was traumatised last year when the government arrested nine young Somali-Americans on charges of plotting to join Isis in Syria . " With all this depression , with all this poverty , with the few resources that we have , we always fail to the recruiters and with the powerful behind them , like countries like Saudi Arabia that finance them , " declared Yusuf Abdurahman , whose son Zacharia , is among the nine now awaiting sentencing in the much-watched case . " We will never match . " Numbering more than 25,000 in the Twin Cites of Minneapolis and St Paul in Minnesota , the Somali-America community is far from unified on the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a meeting inside the Somali-owned Capitol Cafe in Cedar-Riverside one evening last week called in part to help distribute pamphlets advertising an anti-radicalisation programme devised by the FBI entitled ' Do n't be a Puppet - Pull Back the Curtain on Violent Extremism ' . But the very sparse attendance at the meeting was a reflection of deeply-felt suspicion within the community of any initiative that has the FBI or any set of government initials attached to it . However , most are agreed on the need to repel outside voices seen as demonizing American Muslims generally and Somali-Americans in Minnesota in particular . That has included HBO , the cable channel , which last month announced plans to begin filming the pilot of a new drama series precisely examining the lives of young Somalis disenchanted with home and feeling lured by Isis . Created in association with Kathryn Bigelow , director of the controversial films Zero Dark Thirty and Hurt Locker. it has been tentatively - and perhaps insensitively - entitled , Mogadishu , Minnesota . Even though the show 's director is the Canadian-Somali @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is angered by it . Indeed , earlier this month residents of a large tower in Cedar-Riverside where HBO had hoped to be doing some of the filming voted to deny the production company access . Further excacerbating feelings of isolation and fear in the community was the uncovering of a plot to bomb a residential tower in Kansas City occupied mostly by Somali-Americans . Three members of a white militia group were arrested and charged with developing the plot in the meatpacking town of Garden City , Kansas , last Friday . Mr Trump , the Republican presidential nominee , is in a category of his own , however , not least because of the call he made last year to ban all Muslims from entering the United States . Then at a campaign event in August , he singled out Minnesota and its concentration of Somali-Americans , calling them a " rich pool of potential recruiting targets for Islamic terror groups " . It drew the immediate ire of Minneapolis Mayor , Betsy Hodges , who shot back with a Tweet : " Donald Trump @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Just do n't . " Deeply offensive to many in the community , the remark clearly referenced the ongoing legal case . Of the nine who were arrested in the spring of 2015 , six took plea deals after admitting their guilt , including Mr Abdurahman 's son , while the other three were convicted in June this year . Sentencing for all the young men is set for 14 November . ' " He is finger-pointing at our neighbourhoods and saying that 's Sharia area or bad area , I definitely disagree with him , " complained Abdirizak Bihi , a community activist who was also at Capitol Coffee . He said he had invited Mr Trump to come to Cedar-Riverside to see how the community is trying to fight the recruiters first-hand but had had no response from him . " He is really empowering the bad people . How is he empowering them , involuntarily or maybe unknowingly ? By alienating the same community that are really victims of terrorisms themselves . " The notion of Mr Trump aiding and abetting Isis is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on the campaign trail . Mr Trump is giving " aid and comfort " to our adversaries , she recently stated , even going as far as calling him a " recruting sergeant " for Isis . " He is trying almost to speak for the terrorist organisations , what they want , what kind of response they want , " Jaylani Hussein , Executive Director in Minnesota for the Council of American-Islamic Relations , CAIR , said in an interview in his office . " He is giving them a platform where his rhetoric can be used to continuously mobilize what they are trying to do . " Mr Hussein and others argue that attacks on the community by figures like Mr Trump or by the former Republican nominee Ben Carson , who said no Muslim should ever be president , make it easier for Isis recruiters to convince young men who are already disaffected that they are living in a land that disdains them and therefore they have nothing to lose turning against it . At the same time , the recruiters , usually through @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stories of adventure , weapons and also of women . " They are being shown a dream , a fantasy life , " Mr Hussein explained . Mr Abdurahman said he never realised what was happening to his son until it was too late and he was arrested , in part because Isis teaches the young men how to dissemble with their parents . And the message they hear becomes irresistible to them . ( David Usborne ) " The tell them , ' Listen man , yah , this is the correct religion ... your mum is not Islam , your country you stay in , America , is the Great Devil , you just come to Isis ... you come to this little caliphate , we are the only pure Islam ' . And they show some stuff , they show fun . Isis says , ' I have got some fun over here , come on in , I have wives too , I have got women , alright ' . " Asking for leniency for the men , Mr Abdurahman alleged that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are in trouble , through electronic eavesdropping , but tells them nothing . " My kid is sitting over there doing his homework but actually talking to someone in Syria and the government knows - so where the is collaboration ? Where is the government . " While there appears to be general agreement that combating the recruiters is urgent , the community is largely resistant to government-led programmers like ' Do n't be a Puppet ' . The distrust of authority of any kind runs deep , in part because of experiences the adults had in refugee camps before escaping Somalia , Mr Hussein explains . For example , he said , imams in the mosques who might be able to talk young men out of pledging allegiance to Isis do n't dare talk to them at all for fear they will be arrested for somehow showing sympathy to the caliphate . " We believe the best way to do it is to actually have the community take the lead , " Mr Hussein argued . " It ca n't be something where the government is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is the community that should be taking on the role . " With the FBI , he says , the line between community outreach and monitoring of potential suspects will always be blurred . It 's why so few Somali-American residents came to the Capitol Cafe event even if the issue under discussion - radicalisation - is so urgent for them , he argued . " If the entire community that you are trying to work with is telling you we do n't want this programme and you continue to try to push forward with it , there has to be a problem . " But Deqa Hussen , whose son , Abdirizak Warsame , is also among the nine awaiting their sentencing next month , says she will do anything to try to stop the recruiters in their tracks , even if that means turning also to the FBI for help . " I am a parent , I got hurt and I do n't want another parent to get hurt . We have to advocate for our community , " she said . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'ruled themselves out of appearing on the show', where 'themselves' is a reflexive pronoun coreferential with the subject 'plenty of stars', but the verb 'ruled' does not fit the typical means categories (deception, force, fear, etc.) associated with the construction. Additionally, the interpretation does not clearly align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations typical of the construction.

last month that the BBC had lost the contract to air The Great British Bake Off , dedicated fans of the show were up in arms .
And when presenters Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins announced they would n't be going with ' the dough ' , swiftly followed by judge Mary Berry , many viewers suggested they too were marching out of the Bake Off kitchen for good .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'suck the life out of anything that threatens the power of the dark energy lords' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'out of' in a metaphorical sense to describe the effect of the 'dementors' on 'anything that threatens the power of the dark energy lords', which is not a VP[-ing] form.

When Britain 's ... polluters meet with Downing Street , climate obligations are quickly thrown out in favour of the most licentious policies , writes ALAN SIMPSON BRITAIN may laugh ( or squirm ) at the amount of dirt and dishonesty the US presidential election is sinking itself into . It is getting harder not to . But Britain has as much dirt and sleaze of its own to worry about . This has nothing to do with the private lives ( or lusts ) of MPs , but about our longstanding addiction to dirt . On and off camera , Britain 's richest corporate polluters continue to procure the most licentious public policies money can buy . A " freedom to frack " and the Heathrow/Gatwick expansions are just the latest examples . When corporate donors come knocking on the Downing Street door , climate obligations go out the window . Democratic rights do too . Instead , a " polluters ' right to pollute " steps over the threshold only to re-emerge , later , dressed up as an overriding national interest . Faced with an array of criticisms that Britain will not meet @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ May 's government quietly removed the climate remit given explicitly to any of the new secretaries of state . Labour has then struggled to appoint a specific shadow secretary of state to hold the government to account because such responsibilities are now scattered like confetti after a wedding . Pandering to such lobbying is a British version of the Trump dictum : " If you 're rich enough , you can do what you want , " in this case with the planet . With or without a Tic-Tac in its mouth , it is a feudal right that Britain 's polluters have long laid claim to . Back in the 1960s , it took thousands of deaths , and hundreds of thousands of lives blighted by chronic bronchitis , before Britain found the courage to pass its Clean Air Acts . It did so in the face of industry cries that the Acts would turn Britain into an industrial wasteland . Instead they forced polluters to clean up production and industry did n't die . And , consequently , fewer people did . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ progress . " But at the time it was a raw battleground between societal rights and industrial lobbying . Today , another " dirty " is in charge . Fossil fuel lobbying still persuades ministers to throw taxpayer subsidies at dirty habits . The 75 per cent capital allowances " write-off " promised to fracking will make the public pay for explorations it does n't even want . But the picture gets worse the more you look at it . May is systematically turning British government into an all embracing " Ministry of Dirty Thoughts ; " a parody closer to Harry Potter than Trump . As the Dolores Umbridge of her day , the PM is systematically removing all things " clean " from the Hogwarts syllabus , entrenching Britain 's dependence on polluting energy consumption . Under her stewardship , all energy saving programmes are being marginalised . Britain 's fuel poverty programme lies abandoned and in tatters ; the zero-carbon homes commitment has been dumped ; Feed-in-Tariff payments for clean energy are slashed to a standstill ; tax allowances to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a six to eight fold increase in the rate charges levied on businesses that have installed solar roofs . Everything " clean " is being obstructed so the dark arts can prosper . The Paris Agreement now barely makes it into Britain 's curriculum . And the priorities given to May 's departmental " dementors " are to suck the life out of anything that threatens the power of the dark energy lords that fund her party . Even Britain 's energy regulator Ofgem is joining the purge , proposing to charge households with solar roofs an additional " premium " because they do n't use the grid as much as others . This may sound bizarre , but their chief executive openly says he is " ... worried that people who can afford to install solar panels and generate their own power for much of the day may end up not paying their fair share of the costs of the UK 's electricity pylons and cables ... " He adds : " ... if people all go off grid , the phrase has sometimes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . ' " That you 'll end up with some bizarre example where there 's only one person left paying the entire cost of the network . " This is , of course , nonsense . One person in Britain will not end up paying the whole cost of maintaining the national grid . But it highlights the bigger issue that the Prime Minister is desperate to obscure . |

Through its staging of nightmarish what-if scenarios ( what if you could ' block ' people in real life , what if criminals could be forced to experience their victims ' feelings , what if a copy of your consciousness could be used as a high-tech household appliance ... ) , Black Mirror repeatedly reminds us that whatever technology enables us to do , real people are on the receiving end of our actions . Back in July , I spoke with Brooker and Black Mirror producer Annabel Jones about what to expect from the new episodes arriving on Netflix this Friday ... When people think of Black Mirror , the first thought tends to be ' aaah ! The pig one ! Brilliant , scathing , misanthropic , it 's about how we 're all idiots ... ' but it actually has real empathy , your series . Underneath the horrible stuff , it seems that you 're really urging kindness and caution ? Charlie Brooker : I think you 're absolutely right . I mean , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a caustic satire and sometimes that 's the way to go with the story rather than me being particularly misanthropic ... But you see , even that I think is an empathetic story because the Prime Minister in that is ... He 's sympathetic . CB:Extremely sympathetic . And the whole point of that is that everyone 's enjoying his downfall and then you 're confronted with the reality that that is happening to a human being and suddenly it 's not so funny anymore . I 'm glad you said that . I like to indulge the more sentimental side I suppose . Not sentimental , the more empathetic side I suppose and then also I do like smacks fist into palm the ones that are more like White Bear . Some of the ones we 've got this time around are smacks fist into palm owww ! Laughs . Basically they 're a bit owww ! Sorry , probably outside they 'll think there 's a fight going on ! It 's all about that balance , but always , you need to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shit ? Annabel Jones : Exactly . I think what Charlie 's so good at is creating a sort of high-concept world but that world very quickly gets backgrounded because you 're caring more about the characters . CB : Hopefully . AJ : There 's a human drama at the heart of it , otherwise it 's so less powerful . I know you 've said Black Mirror 's episodes do n't have a moral or lesson , they simply leave things for people to puzzle over , but consistently there does seem to be a ... I 'm going off-topic here but do you know that Philip Larkin poem about running over a hedgehog with a lawnmower ? AJ : Yes ! CB : No , but it sounds great ! It has a line ' We should be careful/of each other , we should be kind/while there 's still time ' . That seems to me to be what Black Mirror 's central worry is about , that in our use of technology we 're not being careful enough with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ CB : I suppose . I 'm trying to think overall . Some of our stories , I think you 're right in that they do n't tend to have a message . There 's one this time that 's more of a romp , really , it 's not really particularly trying to push a point of view . But we 've certainly got ones that are examining ... We 've got a story this time around that 's got social media and anger being expressed on social media at the heart of it , and it 's not particularly pointing a finger and going ' That 's wrong ' or ' Let 's get rid of Twitter then ' , but there 's an examination of the sort of stuff that goes on . Technology is n't the villain and the people are n't often really the villain so much as they 're weak . They 've got weaknesses and flaws and it 's those that are then amplified by the technology in our story and that allows them to sort of fuck up . I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interested in the ramifications of whatever scenario we 've set up and often amused by the ramifications when I 'm writing , even though it 's usually played straight laughs but often I 'm fucking howling with laughter the more horrible it is . AJ : Laughing And if I cry at an episode , that delights him ! CB : Oh , I love it ! If you cry at an episode that 's ... AJ : And you 're chuckling away ! CB : Brilliant . Laughs That 's a victory . AJ : I think the series does highlight certain themes and issues , we just do n't necessarily spoon-feed an ending , a position on it . A lot of them , whether it 's The National Anthem or some of the ones in the current season , they are exposing and highlighting ugly themes . And yet the episode I was given to preview , San Junipero , is quite beautiful and tender and romantic . Why was that the first one released to press ? CB : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ first one we did . Certainly it was the first one written but partly I was thinking right , what do I want to do ? What are people going to expect when they sit down to watch a new episode of Black Mirror ? And what you 're going to expect is somebody with a translucent TV in a drone strike and a robot walking by ... or frowning at a phone and going ' aaah ! Oh no ! I 've just deleted my own leg ! ' or whatever . So I thought well , let 's not do that . I kept saying I want to do an episode that 's set in the past , how do we do a period episode of Black Mirror ? And simultaneously there was another idea we were thinking about and the two things sort of gelled and became San Junipero . What we were also trying to do is vary the tone slightly across the season , because there are six stories this time around , so you do n't want it to just be the devastating @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ CB : Exactly ! However , having said that , if you do n't also deliver that then you 're wussing out . So across the season you 'll see that there 's ... if you look at the different flavours of sauce in Nandos , there 's your Extra Extra Hot . You 're still going to get given that in some of the stories . But I think we wanted to expand the show a little . AJ : But hopefully it still retains that thought-provoking , challenging slight unease you feel when you watched a classic Black Mirror episode . CB : Classic ? Wow ! Classic Black Mirror eh ? AJ : You know what I mean , it still feels as if it has that Black Mirror flavour . There 's a line in the trailer Netflix has released , I obviously do n't know the context yet but a man is shouting ' you 're not in control of this ' . That might be a fitting tag line for the entire show ? CB : Pretty much @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ almost every story we 've ever done is concerned with authenticity or reality in some way . That 's not something that we 've gone in thinking ' Right ! How are we going to examine that now ? ' It 's just when you take a step back you see that they 're actually all sort of in that mode . It 's always about unforeseen consequences and unforeseen problems , it 's not usually that someone 's created a machine that they want to enslave mankind with , it 's someone 's invented a new kind of ... paperweight that laughs enslaves mankind . What the fuck am I talking about ? ! AJ : A paperweight we 've all willingly embraced ! CB : Yep , and for good reason , often . AJ : Exactly . You 've been writing the series for six years now . CB : Have I ? God ! Do you think the way you write it has changed in that time ? Are there things you 're now more willing to do , less @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stories are a bit more expansive than they 've been because we 've got different running times . One of them is nearly feature-length , for instance . I 've tried to vary our protagonists a bit more too , some of them are two-handers , some are ... it 's not just like ' a bloke wakes up and then his life falls apart ! ' I 've been trying to mix that up a little more . Obviously , you try not to repeat yourself so that forces you to re-evaluate what you 're doing constantly . Again , generally I know that we 've hit on a good idea if there 's a moment where I 'm going " HA HA HA ! " because that 's usually my starting point , me laughing . AJ : And me crying . You 've retreated from ideas in the past because you saw them as too hard or too horrible . I remember you said at one point that Oona Chaplin 's character in White Christmas had a child at one point but you could @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ yeah . We discussed it and it was too horrible . I even started writing a scene when she 's looking on the CCTV of the house and she sees her real self playing with her son and she 's literally pleading to be allowed to hold him again , and it was just too upsetting , too horrific really . because that 's halfway through the episode and you 've got nowhere to go and there 's nowhere to go . AJ : It 's also about the arc . Because that 's halfway through the episode and you 've got nowhere to go from there . Are there things in this six that surpass or equal that for horribleness ? CB : There are moments in this that are absolutely horrible , without a shadow of a doubt , there are moments that are absolutely horrible . I ca n't really say too much . There are unsettling moments for different reasons . Hopefully there are some which are quite seriously powerfully unsettling and others where it 's more of a romp . You @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ twists now . They 'll be on alert for them in the new episodes . CB : It 's interesting . If you look at the first series there are n't really twists , there kind of is in The National Anthem , but them it 's not about the twist , that 's an extra little kicker given to you at the end . Be Right Back does n't have a twist . Really , when we did White Bear that has such a big twist and the Christmas Special has got so many twists in it that in a way I think we did prime people to expect twists , so we do n't always have them this time around because we did n't want to paint ourselves into a corner too much . What is useful about when there is a sort of pull-out to reveal moment going on is that it actually focuses the mind when you 're writing the earlier scenes because you 're thinking ' right , how do I ? I can only show this amount of the room ... I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they 've all got robot legs ! ' it 's a challenge so it keeps you engaged on some level . AJ : The constant dilemma in the edit is how much we can get away with , how much we want to tease and be playful and not give too much away . I 'm being pushed to a last question now , so perhaps if I list the series three episode titles , you could give us a few words on what to expect from them ? CB : Although Men Against Jive is a brilliant title ! That 's a military story , that 's a difficult one to explain really because that 's sort of a war ... it 's not just a war story . What would you describe that as ? AJ : Hard to say . CB : That is quite hard-hitting that one . It 's a war story / almost The Walking Dead ... Hated In The Nation CB : A social media detective mystery And finally , Playtest CB : A @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of gaming themes coming up in this season actually . |

Demand side reduction is gaining significant traction having been highlighted in a number of government reports as a potentially crucial element of the future energy market . Having deployed the technology within various high-profile businesses -- including the likes of Sainsbury 's and United Utilities -- Open Energi 's David Hill believes more and more C&I entities are coming round to the idea of DSR . And with storage costs tumbling month-on-month , it could be about to become all the more powerful . Was it difficult to build trust in demand side reduction to start with ? I think the trust was more centred around the returns , people understood the value of the market we were operating in and there was transparency there in the price we could get them in the ancillary service market . We were always very transparent there . I think the big area of trust was generally that we could make requests and automate control of assets that are critical to the processes of that business . Naturally organisations are concerned that it 's going to disrupt their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ barrier to overcome , and we put a lot of investment into not only the control algorithms to make sure they never take things out of their control parameters , but also investing a lot of key areas and competencies such that when we 're chatting to water engineers , we have those who can really translate exactly what we 're doing and how that could impact that process . How much of a role can falling technology costs , particularly storage , play in the uptake of DSR ? The whole strategy of how we can aggregate rapid responding carbon-free flexibility behind the meter for our customers to add value to them , and also change the electricity works - whilst we 've been deploying that in a demand response context , essentially storage is the next asset class that fits very nicely into the way we operate . Batteries are very good for doing dynamic frequency response , they 're very good for doing peak price avoidance , and they 're simple to integrate within an existing software platform like ours . We are looking to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they can go deeper into their ability to manage peak prices , and also in their ability to participate in flexibility markets . Sometimes there are assets with our customers that just have no flexibility , so Sainsbury 's lighting and IT equipment do n't have any flexibility . The only way to unlock flexibility from these kinds of assets to operate within National Grid 's markets is to put a battery alongside them . And obviously that extends as far as TRIAD periods and not just standard peak times ? You can really use the combination of demand response and batteries to create a very low-cost energy optimisation strategy across a range of markets like TRIAD , capacity market levy , distribution network charges , and dynamic frequency response markets and any future markets that have n't been invented yet . They 're incredibly powerful assets that can respond to a range of different signals . It 's a relatively simple strategy of what 's the maximum value you can achieve within any half-hour of a day with that asset . There is now a range @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ create value for C&I consumers . Not all of them are available to do the same thing at the same time , so effectively we spend a lot of time with our customers evaluating what are the best market options , and then you plot an optimisation strategy through those on a half-hourly basis which our software can automate . For the most point it looks like doing peak price avoidance services Monday to Friday , 4pm -- 7pm , and then around that we 'll operate within frequency response markets or , if our customers have agreements with suppliers to do other types of arbitrage , we can build that strategy in . It 's very much a bespoke strategy to return the maximum amount of value to pay off the capital invested in deploying our Dynamic Demand software as quickly as possible . How have you found engaging with these end customers ? The nice thing about bringing battery storage to our customers is all of them are a long way on a journey of understanding all the different parts of the energy market . By @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ how the energy markets work and how they can create value out of changing demand . When I first started selling our technology the real challenge was defining the difference between energy efficiency and demand response . How are you going about engaging with more customers ? I think we 're definitely seeing a lot more interest in it just naturally . I think the general peak pricing structure of most peoples ' bills means that all of them are very actively looking for solutions to avoid peak prices . The fact the capacity market levy comes in this year , TRIADs are due to go up - everyone is now evaluating a range of different options . Batteries - even if you go in with a proposition of trying to avoid peak prices - it 's something that 's falling on happy ears . |

Some 802,036 customers ... current accounts between the start of January and the end of September , figures showed The number of current account customers ditching their old bank and switching to a new one has been running at higher levels in 2016 than it was a year ago . But with several popular current accounts set to slash their interest rates or perks , customers may find they have a poorer choice of alternatives to switch to in the coming months , experts have warned . Some 802,036 customers switched current account between the start of January and the end of September , marking a 3% increase compared with the same period in 2015 , according to new figures from payments body Bacs , which oversees the current account switching service . Launched in September 2013 , the switching service has taken some of the hassle out of moving current accounts . It has cut the length of time it takes to switch from up to 30 working days previously to seven . Bacs said over 3.3 million switches had taken place since the scheme was launched . A total of 1.06 million switches were completed in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ earlier . The perks and relatively high interest rates offered by some current accounts have given savers a haven for their cash at a time when returns on traditional savings accounts have been poor . But , following the recent cut in the Bank of England base rate to 0.25% , some providers have confirmed they are cutting their perks or chopping their rates . Santander , which has been seen as one of the big " winners " of the switching service , announced in August that it would halve an interest rate on its flagship 123 current account from 3% to 1.5% , from November 1 . Bacs 's latest figures show that in the first quarter of 2016 , Halifax made a net gain of over 47,000 customers using the switching service , while Nationwide Building Society piled on over 28,000 customers , Santander gained over 17,000 customers , HSBC gained more than 5,000 customers and TSB gained more than 4,000 customers . Meanwhile , Barclays made a net loss of more than 34,000 customers , NatWest lost more than 22,000 customers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The figures covering providers only include people , small charities and small businesses that have used the switching service , not everyone who has moved their current account . Rachel Springall , a finance expert at Moneyfacts.co.uk , said : " Over the past few weeks , some of the biggest banks have announced they will be slashing the credit interest on the most lucrative accounts , which will be devastating news to customers taking full advantage of the perks , particularly to savers who use these accounts as a refuge for their cash . " She said that as well as Santander 's rate cut , Lloyds Bank would also cut its Club Lloyds credit interest rate from 4% to 2% in January and TSB would reduce a 5% rate on its Classic Plus account to 3% from January . And Halifax would drop its ? 5 monthly reward payment on its Reward current account to ? 3 in February . Ms Springall said : " Clearly in the current environment these current account perks can not be sustained forever , which is why anyone sitting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out if they would be better off by moving right now . " Anyone with an account that is soon to change might want to revisit how they use their account and if the new changes will have a huge effect on them or not . " She pointed out that Nationwide Building Society was still offering an initial rate of 5% for 12 months on an account , while Tesco Bank had a deal paying 3% . Andrew Hagger , founder of website Moneycomms , said : " It may well be that Nationwide Building Society sees a significant inflow of new customers - but only if it does n't follow the market trend and maintains its current 5% in credit deal for year one . " He continued : " It 's been a struggle to convince people to move banks and the reduction of benefits and credit interest could see activity levels stagnate as the difference between accounts narrows and the financial benefit is no longer a driver to look elsewhere for a more favourable deal .

In our series ... letters from African journalists , Ghanaian writer Elizabeth Ohene reflects on Muhammadu Buhari 's recent comments about his wife and offers her view of what Nigeria 's president got wrong . I went to a family wedding in Washington DC this past week . I mention it because wives have been on my mind thanks to the comments made by Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari about his wife . The president had offered what was supposed to be one of the biggest putdowns in public discourse : " My wife belongs in the kitchen , in the living room and in the other room . " In other words , President Buhari was suggesting that his wife had stepped outside her allotted space by talking about politics . Political talk does not belong in the kitchen , governance talk does not belong in the living room and electoral matters do not belong in the other room . I acknowledge that the president 's spokesperson has urged all of us to get a life and recognize that President Buhari was joking and we should not take his words seriously and I will keep this firmly in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to boycott her husband 's re-election if he did not show better leadership So where does my family wedding come into the discussion , or maybe the legitimate question is where do marriage ceremonies belong ? In the kitchen , in the living room or in the other room ? In Ghana , marriages are the coming together of two families rather than the coming together of two individuals . At the ceremony that I went to in Washington DC , Naabia the bride is my niece , the daughter of Ghanaian parents , who has lived her life so far in the Washington DC area . John , the groom was born and bred by Texan parents with Italian , Scottish and Welsh roots . I discovered during the weekend of the various ceremonies that John 's family was not in the least bit fazed by the prospect of " the coming together of two families " as I had feared . John 's father was however very unhappy with the fact that according to Ghanaian custom @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ceremony ; apart from the groom that is . The entire Ghanaian traditional marriage ceremony is conducted by the women on both sides of the family and men are only allowed to sit in as spectators .

" At the end of it all , I promised John 's father I might consider leading a movement to change the discrimination against men in Ghana which shuts them out of playing roles in marriage ceremonies . The events of this past week involving two very high profile wives have brought the issue very much to the fore for me . The First Lady of the United States ( Flotus ) Michelle Obama and the First Lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria ( Flofron ) Aisha Buhari , within hours of each other had captured the headlines in the most spectacular manner . The things Mrs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have probably been said by many other Nigerians and I suspect the president has heard them .

Media captionMichelle Obama slams Trump over his attitudes to women Mrs Obama speaks from the kitchen , she speaks from the living room , she speaks from the street , she speaks from the campaign trail and yes , she speaks from " the other room " also known as the bedroom .

Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal are two of the greatest players in tennis historyGetty Tennis legend Roger Federer has hailed rival Rafael Nadal calling him the most inspiring and influential player in tennis history , claiming that he would not be player he was if it was n't for the presence of the Spaniard and his challenges . Federer , who is the most successful single player in tennis history with 17 Grand Slam titles against his name , admitted it was the Spaniard who forced him to re-invent his game which has made him what he is today . " I 've been around the game for 17 years .

Because you 're left-handed , because of your spin , because of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to re-invent and re-work my game entirely . And that 's because of the person you are and how much you 've trained " , Federer said , as quoted by atptour.com . Federer and Nadal have been part of the biggest matches in tennis history and have faced off 34 times in the past , including 21 tournament finals with the Spaniard holding a 23-11 advantage and has won five of their past six matches . Federer though won their most recent encounter when he beat Nadal to win the Swiss Indoor tournament at Basel last season . " I 've seen you prepare for tournaments and practices the same way , which I ca n't do , because my mind does n't allow me to , I ca n't prepare for matches and practices this long . We 're completely different when it comes to this . I admire everything and how you do it , and I hope you can still do it for many more years to come . I really wish you good health .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund, but it lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'extract an income out of hard-working homebuyers' does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate and does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a general action of extracting income from a group without the specific grammatical and semantic properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

It beggars belief ... there can be clauses in a property contract which allow a freeholder to backdate the ground rent and then present an extortionate bill to the unsuspecting buyer of a flat . That we can run a story about Kadian Kennelly , who was expected to pay ground rent of ? 8,000 a year , and as much as ? 8m in the future ( yes , on her one-bed flat ) , shows the staggering greed at the extreme end of this " market " . But perhaps we can thank her freeholder for one thing : helping us to throw a spotlight on a seedy practice for which there is no ethical basis . Only in Britain do we persist with an archaic form of property ownership that allows the rich to extract an income out of hard-working homebuyers and provide absolutely nothing in return . What 's more , rather than seeing this practice wither on the vine , it is , astonishingly , actually getting worse . Big housebuilders have spotted an easy cash stream and are knocking out what would previously have been freehold houses as leasehold -- 6,000 last year , according @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ common parts " to a new-build estate that gives an excuse to the builder to say the property is leasehold . Ground rent is stuck in the lease , to be ramped up later . The builder sells it on to rapacious investors who can " securitise " the " revenue stream " from the rents . If you 've watched the Big Short on Netflix recently , you 'll know the game . My brother was about to spend around ? 250,000 on a leasehold flat until my sharp-eyed father spotted a clause , in highly obtuse language , which enabled the freeholder to double the ground rent every decade . " Each review date the rent is to be increased to double the rent reserved before the relevant review date and the reserved reviewed rent will be payable from and including the relevant review date . " This gobbledegook translates into : " We will stiff you for a 7% annualised rise in the rent . " No wonder financiers love this stuff . Bundle up loads of ground rents , create a fund effectively @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ price you paid , because even a 3.5% yield is attractive these days . And all for doing absolutely nothing . Ground rent is almost the definition of a socially useless activity . As campaigner Sebastian O'Kelly of Leasehold Knowledge Partnership says : " Freeholds represent 5% or less of the capital value of a block of flats yet have a preponderance of the power . That does not make sense , even capitalistically ... a tough monetising property spiv should get a 20% annual return on a freehold . " Meanwhile , the buyer of the apartment , who has probably used their life savings for the deposit and is handing over nearly half their income to the mortgage company , does n't really own the property . Legally , it can be forfeited if ground rent is not paid , although thankfully that happens rarely . Far more common is the repulsive squeeze put on homebuyers whose leases are less than 80 years -- and there 's two million of them in Britain -- to pay absurd amounts to extend them , or see their property @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are generally the aristocratic estates to whom these unearned incomes flow . The rest of the world ( including Scotland ) has forms of commonhold : flat owners know they own the flat , fractions of the corridors and roof and land , and are responsible for it . Australia rejected leasehold in the 1960s , as have other parts of empire saddled with this legacy of colonial rule . The solution here ? " New leases should be indefinite ; ground rent should be abolished ; all flats should be built with residents ' management companies , so the residents take control once a majority of the flats are sold , " says O'Kelly . |

tortoise in a shoebox , say vets
Over half of vets saw tortoises with weight loss or anorexia following their last hibernation , reveal the latest figures from the British Veterinary Association ( BVA ) . The BVA have teamed up with the specialist British Veterinary Zoological Society ( BVZS ) and British Small Animal Veterinary Association ( BSAVA ) to make sure hibernating pets have a healthy rest this winter . With modern advice having moved away from the traditional idea of placing your tortoise in a shoebox in the attic , many vets believed these health problems stemmed from the way the tortoise was hibernated . British Veterinary Association President Gudrun Ravetz said : " We have a far greater knowledge now of a tortoise 's health and welfare needs , however it 's possible that those who have had tortoises for decades may not be aware of the new practices . " We would always encourage tortoise owners to make sure their pet has regular health checks with their vet to ensure their pet is in good @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ advice to prevent health problems as well . " Although the weather is getting colder , vets advise owners to delay tortoise hibernation until November or December by keeping their pet warm using heat lamps to avoid an overlong hibernation that can result in depletion of energy stores , dehydration and accumulation of toxins . The exact length of hibernation will vary depending on the tortoise 's life stage , health and size . Young tortoises should not have their first hibernation until their second , third or fourth winter and then only for six weeks . Usually tortoises hibernate for up to a maximum of three months . If your tortoise is very young or has health problems , hibernation should be avoided . To ensure good hibernation husbandry , leading veterinary organisations BVA , BSAVA and BVZS have compiled some tips to make sure your tortoise stays healthy whilst having the best possible winter rest : Vets top tips for hibernation - Take your tortoise to a vet for a pre-hibernation health check and weigh in - In the weeks running @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and bathe it daily . In the final week before hibernation , your tortoise should be kept at an outdoor temperature and not bathed - During hibernation , keep your tortoise between 5-8 degrees Celsius to prevent problems such as excessive weight loss or blindness - Tortoises should be kept in a protective environment whilst hibernating to ensure they are not interfered with by other animals - Tortoises should be weighed weekly while hibernating to ensure weight loss does not exceed 5% of the starting body weight . Brief handling to weigh will not disturb hibernation . There will be slight weigh loss in the first few weeks of hibernation , but if this continues into the third week then the tortoise should be brought out of hibernation . BVZS President Mark Stidworthy said : " Using a fridge to hibernate a tortoise may seem odd but can provide a safe and reliable hibernation chamber , avoiding some hazards of traditional methods , such as frostbite or rodent injury . It is essential to ensure that the refrigerator temperature is stable , correct for the species @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hibernating your tortoise for too long is the greatest risk factor for post-hibernation problems . " Towards the end of your tortoise 's recommended hibernation period , take them out of the protected , cooled environment and place them in their usual home . Being in the warmer surroundings will cause them to wake up , however they do not need to be fed until the second day out of hibernation . As in preparation for hibernation tortoises should have a daily warm water bath to encourage rehydration and waste elimination . BSAVA Vice President John Chitty said : " Tortoises are excellent pets , but it 's crucial to understand the environmental needs of your particular species , especially when it comes to hibernation . Veterinary surgeons and nurses have a greater understanding of exotic pets now thanks to an increase in education and resources , so do visit your practice for a health check prior to hibernation , where you can also get help in knowing how long to let your pet hibernate , the conditions it needs to stay well during those months , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ owners have any concerns or questions about their tortoise 's health before , during or after hibernation , they should contact their local vet .

How much short-term ... was inflicted by the Brexit vote will be revealed this week when we get an official GDP figure covering July , August and September . Back in the spring and early summer , Britain 's national income was expanding at a healthy annual rate of 2.5% . The latest figures could show that this figure has halved and most forecasters expect next year to be no better . One of the supposed benefits of pulling out of the European Union -- a low pound -- has duly happened and sterling is around 18% lower against the dollar than it was before the referendum . This benefit is mostly reaped by exporters , who overnight find their goods cost less abroad and can therefore sell more of them . In the short term , though , there is a cost that kicks in before the export benefits can be realised , and that is higher import prices . Already petrol costs more than it did in June . And the Marmite war between Tesco and Unilever revealed there are plenty of tweaks to prices in the pipeline . There is a range of forecasts for next year @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from 1% last month . Higher inflation , stagnant wages and slowing growth usually goes under the name stagflation . It 's not a very friendly term and it 's not supposed to be . It was coined in the 1970s and was supposed to remain tied to that decade , never to be repeated . It 's like going to work with a heavy cold with the added anxiety that it might turn out to be flu .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'opt out of giving workers employment protection' involves 'opt out of' followed by a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

How much short-term ... was inflicted by the Brexit vote will be revealed this week when we get an official GDP figure covering July , August and September . Back in the spring and early summer , Britain 's national income was expanding at a healthy annual rate of 2.5% . The latest figures could show that this figure has halved and most forecasters expect next year to be no better . One of the supposed benefits of pulling out of the European Union -- a low pound -- has duly happened and sterling is around 18% lower against the dollar than it was before the referendum . This benefit is mostly reaped by exporters , who overnight find their goods cost less abroad and can therefore sell more of them . In the short term , though , there is a cost that kicks in before the export benefits can be realised , and that is higher import prices . Already petrol costs more than it did in June . And the Marmite war between Tesco and Unilever revealed there are plenty of tweaks to prices in the pipeline . There is a range of forecasts for next year @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from 1% last month . Higher inflation , stagnant wages and slowing growth usually goes under the name stagflation . It 's not a very friendly term and it 's not supposed to be . It was coined in the 1970s and was supposed to remain tied to that decade , never to be repeated . It 's like going to work with a heavy cold with the added anxiety that it might turn out to be flu . Productivity stays low and output declines . Unemployment , for so long the measure of Britain 's jobs miracle alongside record employment figures , has started to rise . Stagflation could turn the August increase in the jobless total of 24,000 into a six figure total , with all the pain that unemployment brings . A 24,000 rise is the equivalent to a third of the workers in a town like Guildford , or half the number in Selby , North Yorkshire , being made redundant .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate.

spate of thefts from farms
DUP MLA William Irwin has spoken of his disgust after a Poyntzpass farmer had 32 lambs stolen in one incident in the early hours of Wednesday morning . Mr Irwin said the thieves had loaded a trailer to capacity with 32 lambs but had attempted to steal 34 and obviously having filled the trailer to capacity left two lambs in the pen . This incident follows another raid last Friday evening where a farmer close to Hamiltonsbawn lost eight calves and a valuable compressor from his farm . Mr Irwin said : " Both these recent incidents were brazen acts on two hard working farmers and have left both farmers feeling let down by the PSNI . In the incident at the sheep farm if the thieves could have squeezed one more lamb onto the trailer they would have done , such is the blatancy of these criminals . " It is absolutely sickening for the sheep farmer to have such a large number of his flock stolen and it is very concerning that we are now seeing this type of activity including calves @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " Mr Irwin confirmed he would be meeting with police in the coming days to further voice his concerns , adding there is a ' very strong depth of feeling ' in the farming community against these continuing thefts . He continued : " What is more alarming is that out in the farming community there is a wide consensus as to the names of the individuals involved in this crime spree and it is now up the PSNI to more quickly monitor and apprehend those responsible for this activity which is damaging our farming industry . " Our farming community has suffered constantly from rural crime and it is having a huge impact on farming and indeed farmer 's attitudes to the effectiveness of the PSNI in dealing with these criminal elements in society .

A number of councils are recruiting volunteers in an attempt to fix potholes in their area . Almost 200 small potholes have been repaired -- this is by residents after two days training and with the necessary equipment and so far the number of potholes repaired is in six council areas .

It is called the road warden scheme and it is a request from councils to the government saying , as we are unable to do much of the minor work because of budget reductions , we are asking the new scheme , which is a number of volunteers offering their services to the council .

Yet another reason not to go to this county that specialises in thinking up abusive terms for visitors . " On the other hand , another resident said : " If this is what it takes to make some improvements to our road network , then I am all for it . When will the scheme go national ?

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks an NP object and a VP2[-ing] predicate that would indicate either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'flashing in and out of being' describes a state or process without involving a causee or causer relationship.

Keats meets Nietzsche ; how Bob Dabbles with the Romantics through three takes of ' Visions ' The Cutting Edge is a fascinating collection of alternate takes on Dylan classics between 1965 and 1966 , a time when Dylan 's surreal punk folk was setting the music world ablaze . Released towards the end of last year , the collection contains a mesmerizing ( we are told , fifth ) take on his hypnotic rocked-up philosophical ode , ' Visions of Johanna ' . Whilst picked apart the world over , analyses of the song never touch upon the burning question of creativity ; and more disquietingly , the overt ( and at times direct ) allusions to the great 19th century free spirit , Nietzsche . Do n't glaze over just yet , there is some groundwork to do , but soon I 'll have you all raving that Dylan is Nietzschean , and that Keats said it all better . It 'd be best now to clear any difficulties in the task ; Foucault certainly was n't the first to note that , whereas art and music pertain to the particular , language @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ words will never manage to adequately convey a meaningful description of music . Indeed , Martin Mull was on the money when he noted that talking about music was like " dancing about architecture " . Yet the sentiment behind the ineffability of artistic drives is nothing new . Nietzsche , the philosophical wrecking ball behind The Birth of Tragedy from the Spirit of Music ( the intellectual home of every pretentious art critic ) , was well aware of this sticking point , and it is not without a heavy dose of irony that he constructed his grand rational presentation of the irrational forces in his very broad definition of art These forces , Nietzsche holds , boil down to the primordial de-individualising sweet madness of the Dionysian , and the ordered , practiced and mechanical force of the Apollonian . It is from a healthy mix of the two that art finds its highest form . So why then is Visions of Johanna in this way Nietzschean ? There are two @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and highlighting the auspicious collection of cryptic references here taken to point to Saxony 's prodigal son . If you are still reading , I trust that you are familiar with the song ( if not , and you simply have a remarkable attention span , go away and listen , it is a Dylan classic with good reason ) . You will know then the rambling journey through surreal Americana , as seen whilst flitting between a hazy room in the Chelsea Hotel and the manic , chaotic streets . You will know the recurring image of a distant light and energy flashing in and out of being . Importantly , you will know the ciphered love story of the ever-present ordered Louise , and the quasi-existent dream-like Johanna . First to the " light that flickers in the opposite loft " , the recurring image is an exploration into the question of the artists ' muse . Here we 'd profit from a quick diversion into the poetry of the romantics . High on Nietzsche 's mind when constructing an outline for the re-birth of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Drang ( Storm and Drive ) literary mindedness . Loosely , this can be clumped under ' German Romanticism ' . The programme fell into the broader catch-all movement of Romanticism , wherein there was a focus on authentic aesthetic experience 1 . Among the poets caught up in this cultural ideology was the great John Keats ( I say great to give credence to his charmingly romantic hope of being remembered ' among the greats ' ) . His romanticist touch was pronounced no more so than in his Odes , and in the Odes , no more so than in Ode to a Nightingale ( have n't read it ? The internet should deliver recordings by Stephen Fry and Benedict Cumberbatch for your ears to enjoy ) . In another reading that seems remarkably absent from discussions that usually never stray far afield from rhyme and meter , Ode to a Nightingale can be interpreted as a neat exploration into the drive of creativity . There are pains " where palsy shakes a few sad last grey hairs , and youth grows pale , and spectre thin , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were to be " charioted by Bacchus and his pards " , and natural beauty amongst " mid May 's eldest child , the coming musk-rose " . Yet none of these suffice to take the writer to the object of her fascination . The distant , intangible nightingale , the poets drive to ... poetry . What on earth does this have to do with Dylan 2 ? Well , my first argument is that the " ghost of electricity " that haunts the listener throughout are subsidiary allusions to the illusory Johanna , who , in this instance , serves as Dylan 's Nightingale . Where Keats laments that " the dull brain perplexes and retards " , Dylan has the " night-watchman 3 click his flashlight ! Ask himself if it 's him or them that 's insane " . Any tenuousness in the link can be dropped if we leap back to the Cutting Edge edition , in which one of the closing lines of the released version ; " he writes everything 's been returned which was old 4 " , is substituted for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ does this link to the " man with the moustache " ? This muse-like figure of madness was of great import , for him , the unquantifiable irrational and intangible force of the Dionysian provides the moment of coition for artistic action . In Dylan 's account of the " lovers so entwined " , the Dionysian corresponds to Johanna , the flitting dream-like need for any artistic progress to be made . Furthermore , the Cutting Edge version of the song is truly Johanna 's , the discordant guitars , increased tempo and strangely timed line deliveries all point to a gloriously chaotic sweet madness . In contrast , Louise who is " alright , she 's just near " , is the far more tangible mechanical Apollonian drive in artwork . It is Louise who " makes it all too concise and too clear " , it is Louise who " sits here stranded " , trying to work , but falling down as " Johanna 's not here " . Louise too has her version of the song . In a stripped back performance at the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on an acoustic guitar , the backing band is absent , and each verse takes one minute and thirty seconds , being interrupted only by a ten second harmonica solo . The version that was eventually to be released in Blonde on Blonde , was an amalgam of the two . Johanna 's madness was met by Louise 's stability . The conscious met the unconscious as Dylan 's " conscience explodes 5 " , and tragedy therein found expression in the 20th century . What remains is to throw light on remaining hints that " little boy lost " was n't , as is sometimes suggested , some journalist or some rival , but was instead the great liberator of thought . Surely anyone can do " small talk at the wall " , however , as he " brags of his misery , he likes to live dangerously " , we find a perpetrator of the pessimism of strength , the idea that we should accept the world , from the human perspective , as being a cesspit of suffering , and in the face of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , " live dangerously " is a recurring motif in Nietzschean aphorisms , especially in The Gay Science . Another may be the cryptic figure of the mule , from which hangs " jewels and binoculars " . We return here to book four of Thus Spoke Zarathustra ( although the image , too , is recurrent throughout his oeuvre ) , where the mule is among the party of guests of ' higher men ' . Indeed , in the dialogue called The Festival of the Mule , the Mule is decorated and worshipped on account of its constant affirmation to all questions ( note a donkey 's cry sounds similar to the German ja ) . I have noted some other links as we have gone along , I have overlooked a number more , what stands is that , at the very least , there is an uncannily Nietzschean character reappearing throughout the song . The remaining question is whether Dylan would have known about , and been comfortable with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ word , yes . This is the same character who would pass comment on Carl Von Clausewitz , refer to Petrarch , who would go on to boil down the ideas of Levinas and Polyani in the more exotic excursions in Desire ( an album with such an apt name and profound undercurrent that it deserves another essay in its own right ) . Hell , this would n't even been the last time he mentions Nietzsche , who crops up again , this time by name , in the epic Joey , also on Desire . It 's all quite a lot to stomach , especially for ends that are purely academic . Those who have made it this far can be treated to a confession , this by no means is the end , and probably is n't even on the right track . The problem with the creation of ' bottomless songs ' is that , if you dig deep enough , anything starts to look like a shelf . Even if coherent , at least two thirds of the song remains unexplained . Why does @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ does the fiddler write on the back of " a fish truck that loads ? " Indeed , why is Louise " delicate , and seems like Vermeer ? " Iterative versions , which mercifully do exist , will hopefully shed more light upon it , as will additional approaches from a plethora of sources . But for now we have some further food for thought to digest as " these visions , of Johanna , they conquer my mind . 1 Forgive the superficial account , Romanticism was an incalculably expansive social rhizome that ca n't truly be condensed into a couple of sentences . Matters from Rousseau to Runge , interesting though they are , will have to remain at the wayside . 2 Remarkably , this link is n't entirely new . Robert Shelton once likened Visions to Keats ' Ode on a Grecian Urn , which , chronologically , is only one Ode away from being on the mark . 3 The Night-watchman being a recurring figure in book four of Nietzsche 's Thus Spoke Zarathustra . 4 Come on , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ! 5 In line with Nietzsche references , it is speculative , but the giant task of re-valuing all values is posited to have caused the mental collapse of the great thinker . As such , Nietzsche himself suffered an explosion of consciousness . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'makes a practice out of rejecting their identity' involves an NP ('a practice') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and 'rejecting' modifies the following noun 'their identity'. It does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, nor does it involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

" My first iced coffee was this year , " says musician Tyler Glenn over the phone , snickering at the thought . " It 's hilarious that I used to associate that as sinful . " In 2014 , Glenn -- best known as the lead singer of platinum-selling pop rock band Neon Trees -- came out publicly in Rolling Stone . As he was continuing to identify as a Mormon , it made the then 30-year-old an instant lightning rod within the national debate about the Church of Latter-day Saints and its long-standing opposition to LGBTQ sexualities . A year later , however , Glenn 's balancing act as a gay Mormon began to falter when the Church of Latter Day Saints issued new doctrines forbidding the children of same-sex couples from being baptized until they were legal adults , even requiring them to then renounce same-sex relationships . Today , nearly a year since those controversial policies were announced , Glenn is back with his solo debut album , Excommunication -- a collection of electro-rock tunes that chronicle both the singer 's loss of faith @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to feel the journey that I 've been on , " he says . " Where the album starts is very much me last year , when I started to look at and question things that I grew up believing . At the same time , I found out my boyfriend had cheated on me . So , making the album was this weird culmination of analyzing my life . " That one-two punch of rejection is keenly felt throughout the record ; the line " I lost the Lord then I lost you " from Glenn 's song " Gods + Monsters " encapsulates the entire work 's emotional thrust . At every turn , listeners encounter either the specter of God or the specter of a longed-for lover , returning the listener to crises of faith that they may have long since resolved . In a taboo intermingling of faith and queer lust , God and romance become nearly interchangeable . By conflating the figure of God with the figure of a lover on Excommunication , Glenn circumnavigates doctrine and instead offers audiences sanctification on the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and romantic worship . " Sometimes I 'm talking to God , but a lot of times I 'm talking to my ex throughout the record . The title Excommunication is a play on words , if you look at it that way , " he mused , " religious excommunication , as well as communicating with my ex . " For LGBTQ Mormons , Excommunication may very well be the right album at the right time : Suicide is the leading cause of death in Utah youth aged 11 to 17 , and a recent study found that " youth suicides are twice as high in states with the highest levels of Mormon residents compared to states with the lowest levels of Mormon residents . " It 's currently impossible to know precisely how many of Utah 's young suicide victims identified as LGBTQ because Utah 's Department of Health ( DOH ) has so far refused to study the link between sexuality and suicide , and police investigations of death rarely look into the deceased 's sexual orientation . Utah 's DOH did point out , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a research and policy initiative , showed that queer youth facing rejection at home are at an " exceptional " risk for suicide -- and rejection epitomizes the Church of Latter-day Saint 's attitude toward queerness . " The Mormon Church does n't even acknowledge homosexuality , " Glenn explains . " Early this year , an elder of the church made the proclamation that there are no homosexuals in the church . The doctrine is taught that it 's a challenge that you can overcome -- that homosexuality is a thing you can reverse , change , or repair . " Facing the crisis of LGBTQ Mormon suicides , Glenn 's songs serve as a much-needed kind of sermon themselves : a witnessing of the plight of LGBTQ Mormons , but also a celebration of their capacity to have both sexual freedom and religious commitment . For every Mormon youth living in a home that makes a practice out of rejecting their identity , Excommunication represents proof that gay people can survive being raised Mormon , that one can come out on the other side of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ course , the process of getting to this other side is no easy ride . Describing his sudden loss of faith , Glenn says that " initially , it was terrifying ; I felt like the rug had been pulled from under me . How was this God that I felt like I had a relationship with , that I had a prayerful communication with -- how could he tell the leaders of the church to put out this new doctrine against gay people ? " With the church 's new policies , he could no longer equivocate about the potential for harmonious relations between the two communities ; it became a question of being Mormon or gay . Yet where the church failed to create a space for queer Mormons , Excommunication succeeds . Despite its title and origin , the album is , in fact , a place for communication with or about the divine , as evinced by numerous tracks where the singer calls out to God or God 's absence . He may claim " you 've got me giving up on Jesus " on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ end , he claims , " I think I still believe in Jesus / He 's a friend when I choose to pray " on album standout " Devil . " The often tortured relationship between the singer and his faith facilitates a sonic space of solidarity for queer Mormon youth -- home for the emotionally homeless . " I definitely have no interest in replacing my former religion with a new religion , " he says of his own current beliefs . " In the Mormon Church , the narrative is that you know the church is true ; it 's all this I know , I know , I know . For me , it 's so refreshing to not know -- there 's a liberation in not knowing right now . " It 's ironic , then , that Tyler Glenn is now an icon for gay Mormonism , despite having radically turned away from the church 's teachings -- but he is still quick to provide earnest words of encouragement to his former community . " Life gets so fucking fun when you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are able to tap into your core , " he says , his voice suddenly becoming more animated . " There 's so much strength and power already in you , and that 's something I wish I had known , because I always looked to something else . " When I bring up the statistical link between large Mormon populations and youth suicide , Glenn shows a surprisingly optimistic attitude about the church he gave up on : " There 's always hope . I think more and more Mormons are realizing the system is fucked up and has flaws . That was exemplified by the outpouring of sadness and frustration that came after that policy against same-sex couples . I wo n't go back to the church , but I hope that they change the policies for those who need it . " For now , Glenn says he has simple goals for his music : " Hopefully , the record represents something of hope for gay Mormons . I see myself as an example of it never being too late to have this paradigm shift @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Enlightenment after indoctrination may seem like a daunting prospect , but as Glenn sings in " Black Light , " there is pleasure to be found in " loving life and excommunication.

Read more Jasmin Vardimon is best known as a choreographer of urban dance theatre , addressing social and political issues in a language of tough , functional physicality . With her voyage into the fairytale world of Pinocchio , however , Vardimon has liberated herself to joyously new levels of dance invention in this show aimed at children and families . Pinocchio is danced by the astoundingly versatile Maria Doulgeri , who is vividly credible as a puppet boy : his/her movements are as light as balsa wood and as dysfunctionally disjointed as a stringless marionette . The evil Fox and Cat , who lure Pinocchio into disgrace , are a riotous double act of jazzy energy and oily insinuation , while other characters are created out of brilliantly minimal means . Pinocchio 's consciousness is present on stage as a neon-lit face , his earnestly talkative features assembled out of fluttering human hands ; the spaghetti-eating couple who Pinocchio encounters are merely two pairs of delightfully animated , painted feet . Vardimon 's choreography is superbly performed by her hard-working cast of eight and is well complemented @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The Blue Fairy hovers beautifully in the air , furniture and props fly about , the lighting for the fairground scene is a riot of lollipop colours and patterns , and when Geppetto goes in search of Pinocchio , his boat sails along a convincingly turbulent sea of fabric . Yet beguiling as this production is on the eye , it lacks the narrative zip and tension necessary to hold us as a story . Dramaturge Guy Bar-Amotz has worked with Vardimon to focus on the plot 's moral structure , charting each of the different emotions ( curiosity , fear , loneliness etc ) that Pinocchio has to experience in order to become properly human . Their approach is based on the original Carlo Collodi tale , yet too often the emphasis on moralising is at the expense of the story . This is a family-oriented show , advertised for children aged seven and above , but key elements of plot and character are lost in the over-extended dance sections in which Vardimon choreographs abstract emotional states . Too much of the taped , often turgid voiceover @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Doulgeri ( Pinocchio ) and David Lloyd ( Geppetto ) in Pinocchio by Jasmin Vardimon at Sadler 's Wells , London Photograph : Tristram Kenton for the Guardian Some of the action is difficult to follow unless you know the story well : there 's no real explanation as to why the marionette theatre director ( an impressively roaring beast of a character ) turns on Pinocchio in a rage . It 's unclear why the naughty children are turned into donkeys -- indeed this nightmare scenario feels oddly unscary . The key problem lies in the representation of Pinocchio , however , for in presenting him as such a comically blank character , Vardimon and Bar-Amotz have failed to make us feel the urgency of his moral choices , the life and death imperative of him making his way back to Geppetto . There is so much that is so good about this Pinocchio , but without a more dynamic sense of storytelling , it never becomes more than the sum of its parts . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Lynch took |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'made a fortune out of funding and fighting the Hundred Years' War' does not involve a causee NP object or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes how the fortune was made, not causing someone to move out of or preventing someone from an action.

From the kings of Scotland who played a real life Game of Thrones at Edinburgh Castle to the Pendle Witches tried at Lancaster , Britain 's castles boast countless stories of rebellion , romance and murder . In his new Channel 5 series airing on Friday , historian Dan Jones explores the turbulent history behind six of Britain 's most famous fortresses Recounting tales from 1,000 years of British history , Secrets of Great British Castles captures the might and majesty of Edinburgh , Cardiff , York , Lancaster , Leeds and Arundel castles and brings to life the heroic and notorious characters who once walked their corridors . Here , writing for History Extra , Jones explores their hidden history ... Edinburgh Castle is one of Britain 's most famous landmarks , which is why millions of people walk up the Royal Mile to visit it every year . Built on a volcanic crag above the city the castle looks out to the Firth of Forth ; walking around its sprawling courtyards and rooms is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Probably the most notorious event in Edinburgh Castle 's history is the Black Dinner , which took place in 1440 during the minority of King James II of Scotland . The Earl of Douglas , himself little more than a boy , was invited to dine at the castle , but at a pre-arranged moment a black bull 's head was carried out on a platter : it was the signal for Douglas and his brother to be wrestled from the table , dragged outside and murdered . The story has gained several layers of salacious detail in its many retellings down the years , and most recently it became , in mutated form , the Red Wedding in the fantasy television series Game of Thrones . In that version , the Starks are ... well , if you 've seen Game of Thrones , you 'll remember . No spoilers , as they say ! There 's so much history to absorb in Edinburgh that it is almost overwhelming . The castle is wound into the life of Mary , Queen of Scots , her son James @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ between the Tudor and Stuart dynasties , which took place during the 16th century . It is also home to the Scottish crown jewels and a healthy array of heavy artillery including the One O'Clock Gun , which sounds the time for shipping in the Firth of Forth . But perhaps my favourite building of all is a simple but beautiful chapel dedicated to St Margaret . It was built around 1130 and is reputed to be the oldest building in Scotland . Cardiff Castle is very dear to my heart , as I 've spent many happy hours drinking in the shadow of its great gates , in the Goat Major pub on High Street . It 's rather different in character and scale to many of the more famous Welsh castles of Snowdonia , not least because unlike Caernarfon , Conwy , Beaumaris and its other northern cousins , Cardiff Castle has spent much of its life as a fortified home rather than simply a military garrison . The keep in the centre of the castle grounds dates to Norman times , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Conqueror 's eldest son , Robert Curthose , who was imprisoned there for more than a decade by his younger brother , Henry I of England . Curthose eventually died in prison at a grand old age , but he left behind his maudlin reflections on life in jail . One poem in Welsh is associated with Curthose : " woe to him who is not old enough to die , " it reads . The most eye-catching parts of the castle today are the rooms created by the architect William Burges on behalf of Cardiff 's super-wealthy 19th-century owner , John Crichton-Stuart , the 3rd Marquess of Bute . The marquess 's vast industrial wealth combined with Burges ' genius for neo-gothic interior design produced a range of exotic and extraordinarily lavish rooms , lending a cod-medieval sensibility to high aristocratic living . Dan Jones outside Cardiff Castle . ( Channel 5 Productions ) York Castle is mostly ruined now , and locals call the keep that remains on its mound Clifford 's Tower , after the family who became hereditary constables in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ clover-shaped and you can still climb up its slippery stone staircases to explore rooms dating to York Castle 's Plantagenet-era glory days . So much of York 's unique , rich and sometimes very dark history can be linked to Clifford 's Tower . The castle originated with William the Conqueror , who put two fortresses by the River Ouse as he attempted to subject the Viking-influenced north to his rule . In 1190 it was the scene of a terrible pogrom , which wiped out the city 's entire Jewish population at the hands of a rioting mob inflamed by the crusading fervour of the day . In the early 14th century it was used to house Templar prisoners as they awaited trial following the dissolution of the order under Edward II . When the north rose in protest at Henry VIII 's dissolution of the monasteries , York castle was again at the heart of the action . Robert Aske , a lawyer who led the protests , was taken as a prisoner from London to York and hanged in chains from the castle walls . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the cells of the jail across the road from Clifford 's Tower . He was Richard Turpin , an Essex horse-thief now immortalised in the legend of Dick Turpin and his wonder-horse , Black Bess . Today you can sit in Turpin 's ( supposed ) cell . Fortunately , they let you out ! Lancaster Castle was , until 2011 , a working prison , and there were few eerier moments filming the new series than walking around the abandoned cells attached to the old medieval fortress . The Birmingham Six were held there during their notorious trial in 1975 , which also took place at Lancaster Castle , in the crown court that is still in operation there . The ' Birmingham Six ' were six Irishmen resident in Birmingham who were sentenced to life imprisonment in 1975 for two pub bombings in the city that killed 21 people . Their convictions were later quashed and they were released after serving nearly 17 years in jail . Having functioned as a court , a prison and a centre of royal justice , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and punishment . Fittingly , it was once a possession of King John , the Plantagenet king who was a keen student of the law in his own right and who was forced in 1215 to agree to Magna Carta , a document revered today as a pillar of British constitutional principles . One of the most notorious cases to have been heard at Lancaster was that of the so-called ' Pendle Witches ' , eight women and two men from nearby villages who were accused of summoning demons and cursing their neighbours . They were almost all convicted at the court on the evidence of a disturbed nine-year old girl named Jennet Device and were taken to be strung up on nearby Gallows Hill , as were so many of Lancaster 's other convicts over the centuries . Some convicts , however , were spared the noose and instead sent to the transportation hulks in the south of England , which took them on to a term of penal servitude in far-flung places like Australia . Making the new series we met the descendent of a sheep-rustler @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , she is now a successful criminal prosecutor ' down under ' . Described as " the loveliest castle in the world " , Leeds Castle has hosted everything from Plantagenet banquets to G8 summits . It is in an undeniably stunning location not far from Maidstone in Kent . ( Do n't go to Leeds in Yorkshire : you 'll be hunting a long time for their castle ! ) Leeds once had a close association with Eleanor of Castile , first wife of Edward I ' Longshanks ' . Eleanor was a successful property magnate and she transformed Leeds Castle , making improvements that included erecting the central building known as the Gloriette and installing a bathhouse , the remains of which have recently been investigated by archaeologists digging in a drained section of the moat . In 1520 , Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon stopped at Leeds Castle on their way to the Field of the Cloth of Gold in northern France , an event which is commemorated in a painting that is replicated in the castle today : the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Catherine 's personal symbol , the pomegranate , carved into the castle 's fireplaces . Much of the stately splendour of Leeds today is the work of Olive , Lady Baillie , an American heiress who purchased the castle in the 1920s and renovated its interiors over many decades . The castle became the venue for parties with guests including European royalty , American films stars and leading British politicians . But Lady Baillie was a philanthropist as well as a hostess ; she turned the castle into a hospital in the Second World War and left it in trust when she died so that it could be enjoyed after she was gone . Arundel Castle is today someone 's house , and I almost felt rude pitching up there this summer to nose around . It is the seat of the Duke of Norfolk , England 's first peer , and it has been home to his family for centuries . The Fitzalan-Howards ( earls of Arundel as well as dukes of Norfolk ) have a family story that ranges from medieval war to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for their particular rich slice of British history . There has been a castle at Arundel since William the Conqueror gave this swathe of southern England to his friend and supporter Roger de Montgomery in 1067/68 . During the 12th-century ' Anarchy ' ( the civil war between King Stephen and his cousin Empress Matilda ) there was a stand-off here that nearly ended in Matilda 's capture . Royal connections have continued ever since . During the 14th century Arundel was home to Richard Fitzalan , a friend , comrade and financier to the great Edward III , who made a fortune out of funding and fighting the Hundred Years ' War . Suits of armour adorning Arundel 's walls still speak to those medieval glory years . The art of Arundel castle tells the story of another great era , when the 17th-century ' collector earl ' , Thomas Howard , toured Europe cherry-picking artefacts and sending them home to England . Many of the marble statues he collected can now be seen in Oxford 's Ashmolean Museum , but Arundel Castle is fairly heaving @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Anthony van Dyck and Daniel Mytens . Almost as grand as Arundel 's huge buildings are its extraordinary gardens , but my favourite spot is the cricket pitch on the other side of the pretty little town . There are n't many more picturesque grounds in England , maybe even the world . Not a bad back garden , I guess . We use cookies to improve your experience of our website .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of receiving Cookies', where 'receiving Cookies' is a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'.

Lee Baker has told his Garstang players not to take Slyne-with-Hest 's results for granted ahead of their derby on Saturday . The two sides meet in the Richardson Cup with Garstang travelling to a side two places beneath them in the West Lancashire League Premier Division . " Since we beat them 5-0 last month , I do n't think they have won a game , " Baker said . " They ca n't keep losing , however , while we ca n't go on winning forever . " It 's a tight pitch there without much chance of taking a touch ; as soon as a you do , there 's someone on you . " They are a good side and they score a lot of goals -- but they also concede .

" The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ chances but we 've also now kept five clean sheets in the last seven games , " he said . " Clean sheets are one thing I like to pride myself upon , ? especially because we 've had a few lads unavailable -- all of whom have been part of the back four .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'small local businesses' is the NP object and 'securing shops in the complex' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, as the action described prevents the small local businesses from securing shops. The verb 'priced' can be classified under 'By means of exerting force or pressure', fitting one of the categories of verbs that appear in the V1 slot of the construction. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A huge complex ... shops , bars and restaurants is being planned for Waterloo as part of the ? 800 million transformation of Britain 's busiest railway terminal . London and Continental Railways , backed by the Department for Transport , wants to create more than 130,000 sq ft of " retail and leisure " space in the disused floors under the Eurostar platforms at the former Waterloo International . About 100 million passengers a year pass through the main railway station and a major " remodelling " by Network Rail is under way as part of a wider programme to increase capacity by up to 40 per cent , with improvements on routes to the South-West , Surrey and Berkshire . The retail redevelopment will create three shopping floors under the five platforms that were mothballed after the Eurostar terminal was moved to St Pancras in 2007 and which will soon be reopened for the extra trains . The plans are recommended for approval by Lambeth council on Tuesday , but concerns have been raised that small local businesses could be priced out of securing shops in the complex at the expense of multinational chain stores . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , said : " There needs to be floor space inside Waterloo that recognises small firms and not just the chains . " In London , we 're losing our inherent small business space that 's vital to the community -- we 've seen it in Soho , Chinatown , Brick Lane and Brixton . " The Jubilee Gardens Trust urged developers to make more money available to keep the area around the station clean . The park , which is next to the London Eye , had a 60 per cent increase in the amount of litter last year , and the trust fears this could increase . David Joy , chief executive of LCR , said : " We are working with Network Rail to reopen the former Waterloo International Terminal for passenger use , providing much needed railway capacity and retail space on the lower levels , with a mix of independent , high street and food stores . " Our ambition is for the project to match the quality of St Pancras International . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves 'backed out of sponsoring', but 'American Express' is not causing an NP object to move or preventing an NP object from doing something in the sense required by the construction. Instead, it describes American Express withdrawing from sponsorship, which does not align with the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Waters takes $4m hit over anti-Israel views
Roger Waters wrote to Eagles of Death Metal to urge them to boycott IsraelGetty Pink Floyd founder Roger Waters 's polarising views on the Israel-Palestine conflict have lost him legions of fans and made him the subject of fierce scrutiny ; now it looks like it 's costing him money . Page Six reports that the 73-year-old British rocker has lost a major sponsor . According to the publication , credit card giant American Express has baulked on its plans to put up $4m ( ? 3.2m ) for his 2017 tour in North America following his comments at Oldchella festival -- an event the company sponsored -earlier this month . Festival-goers were said to have been stunned by the performer 's anti-Israel rhetoric after he took to the stage . Other acts included Rolling Stones , Paul McCartney , Bob Dylan and Neil Young . He told the crowd : " I 'm going to send out all my most heartfelt love and support to all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ California who are standing up for their brothers and sisters in Palestine , and supporting the BDS movement in the hope that we may encourage the government of Israel to end the occupation , " referring to the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian West Bank . While American Express has yet to comment on Waters 's partisan views , a spokesperson told Page Six that it never committed to sponsoring his string of dates . " When we were approached with the options , we passed on making a bid . It is a balancing act to work with artists our card members love , within the budgets we have allocated .

He previously urged fellow musicians to join the movement in an open letter published in the Guardian : " This is a plea to my colleagues in the music industry , and also to artists in other disciplines , to join this cultural boycott .

It involves 'backed out of sponsoring', which is a phrasal verb 'backed out of' followed by a gerund, but lacks the necessary NP object that functions as a causee in the construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves the phrase 'arising out of something very small getting out of all proportion,' which does not have a clear causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'getting out of all proportion' is more idiomatic and does not align with the defined construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'making a big deal out of being awarded' does not involve a causee NP object that participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'a big deal' is an NP complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and 'being awarded' is a gerund phrase modifying 'a big deal'.

" Is n't that something ... ? " Bob Dylan is n't exactly making a big deal out of being awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature . But at least the 1960s trailblazer is finally acknowledging his becoming the first musician to be granted admission to the world 's most elite literary club . Since it was announced he had been chosen by the Swedish Academy to receive the Nobel , Dylan has made no public reference at all to it , save for a fleeting mention on his own website that was deleted within 24 hours . More than that , he has also reportedly refused to pick up the phone to speak to representatives of the Nobel committee . They apparently remain in the dark about whether he will be attending the ceremony on December 10 , when he will receive a cheque for ? 750,000 from King Carl VI Gustaf . Well , I can put them out of their misery . For when I ask about his Nobel , Dylan is all affability . Yes , he is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " Absolutely , " he says . " If it 's at all possible . " And as he talks , he starts to sound pretty pleased about becoming a Nobel laureate . " It 's hard to believe , " he muses . His name has been mentioned as on the shortlist for a number of years , but the announcement was certainly not expected . When he was first told , it was , Dylan confides , " amazing , incredible . Whoever dreams about something like that ? " In which case , I ca n't help but ask , why the long public silence about what it means ? Jean-Paul Sartre famously declined the award in 1964 , but Dylan has these past weeks seemed intent on simply refusing to acknowledge its existence , so much so that one of the normally tight-lipped Nobel committee labelled him " impolite and arrogant " . For his part , Dylan sounds genuinely bemused by the whole ruckus . It is as if he ca n't quite fathom where all the headlines have come from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he just have taken the calls from the Nobel Committee ? ' You can carry a sketchbook anywhere ' " Well , I 'm right here , " he says playfully , as if it was simply a matter of them dialling his number , but he offers no further explanation . It is over a quarter of a century since I first interviewed Bob Dylan . That was back in 1989 , and he started off so reticent that he was monosyllabic . When I asked him a question about the 1960s , he snapped at me . What I did then was start over and ask all the same questions again . It worked . We ended up doing a two-and-a-half hour interview . If there is one thing I have learned about him over the years , and the several interviews he has granted me , it is that he always does the unexpected . Bob Dylan has never made a secret of the fact that he does n't like the media . It is two years since he last spoke to a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , for all the speculation over the last two weeks about the reasons behind his blanket silence on the Nobel award , I can only say that he is a radical personality -- which is why he has remained of so much interest to us over six decades since he first emerged on the Manhattan music scene in 1962 -- and can not be tied down , even by the Nobel Prize committee . In interviews over the years , the famously unpredictable Dylan has been by turns combative , amiable , taciturn , philosophical , charismatic , caustic and cryptic . He has seemed intent , most of all , on being fiercely private and frustratingly unknowable . Hence his apparent toying with the Nobel committee can not be said to have come entirely out of the blue . Perhaps it is just that he has grown casual about garlands that would send the rest of us into orbit , as he has received so many in the course of his long career in the spotlight , since songs such as " Blowin ' in the Wind @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ became anthems for the civil rights and anti-war movements of the 1960s . Among many others , he has received a Special Citation Pulitzer ( 2008 ) , the National Medal of Arts ( 2009 ) , Presidential Medal of Freedom ( 2012 ) , as well as France 's Ordre des Arts et des Lettres ( 1990 ) and the L ? gion d'Honneur ( 2013 ) . Bob Dylan So does he agree with the Nobel committee , I ask , that his songs belong alongside great works of literature ? Sara Danius , permanent secretary of the Swedish Academy , for example , has linked Dylan 's contribution to literature with the writers of ancient Greece . " If you look back , far back , 2,500 years or so , " she has said , " you discover Homer and Sappho , and they wrote poetic texts that were meant to be listened to , they were meant to be performed , often together with instruments , and it 's the same way with Bob Dylan . But we still read Homer and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with Bob Dylan . He can be read , and should be read . " A new gallery of Dylan 's own artworks opens in London 's Halcyon Gallery in November He has never , of course , been one to explain his lyrics . " I 'll let other people decide what they are , " he tells me . " The academics , they ought to know . I 'm not really qualified . I do n't have any opinion . " On the associated question of whether those same lyrics can be considered poetry , Dylan has long delighted in publicly changing his mind . He is perfectly capable in one interview of saying that they can , and then the next time he grants a journalist an audience saying that they ca n't . Some of my songs ... are definitely Homeric in value At heart , he just likes to remain beyond reach . He is as elusive over the question of religion as he is over his songs . Born Jewish , in the late 1970s he released two @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but followed them by holding his eldest son Jesse 's bar mitzvah at the Western Wall in Jerusalem , the holiest of Jewish sites . ( In total , Dylan has six children from two marriages . ) This refusal to explain extends to other aspects of his creative work . Dylan has been working as a visual artist , in tandem with his music , he explains , since the 1960s . " I 'm not obsessed with painting , " he laughs . " It 's not all I do . " ' There 's a certain intensity in writing a song'Credit : REX But news of his Nobel Prize for Literature has coincided with the opening at London 's Halcyon Gallery of The Beaten Path , a new exhibition of his watercolours and acrylics -- his fourth at the Mayfair venue since 2008 . Is there a parallel between song-writing and painting ? " There 's a certain intensity in writing a song , " he replies , " and you have to keep in mind why you are writing it and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Paintings , and to a greater extent movies , can be created for propaganda purposes , whereas songs ca n't be . " You have to know your place . There might be some things that are beyond your talents His artwork has been on walls in museums and in private collections around the world since 2007 , but devotees first began noticing his painterly ways when he did album covers for The Band 's " Music from Big Pink " in 1967 , and his own " Self-Portrait " in 1970 . A book of drawings , 1994 's Drawn Blank , grew into a series of paintings that first went public nine years ago in Germany before traveling to London , Edinburgh , Tokyo and Turin . He later assembled collections inspired by trips to Asia and Brazil , before Halcyon directors Paul Green and Udi Sheleg suggested he look instead in his own backyard for inspiration . ( When he 's not on the road , Dylan lives in Malibu , California . ) For his four exhibitions at the gallery , he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his music . " Well , it 's the land I know best , really , and Halcyon Gallery was probably aware of that , too , " he says . " At first , it was just a series of landscapes they suggested -- landscapes without people -- so I did that . To me , that meant mountains , lakes , rivers , fields and so forth . Sometime later they expanded the idea to include city fa ? ades , bridges , automobiles , streets and theatres . Anything outdoors . It 's not an idea I would have thought of myself , although I could relate to it . " Bob Dylan - 1984 interview with Mick BrownPlay ! 04:16 While straightforward , many of the images -- a shadowy figure in a phone booth in " Midnight Caller " , or deserted tables in " Ice Cream Shack " -- suggest stories and secrets . Others , such as " Staring at the Moon " , " Rooftop Parking Lot " , " Night Train " and " Del Rio " , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ may simply be a by-product of escaping the frenzy and hollowness of urban life . When it comes to meaning , Dylan is , it becomes clear , no more keen to explain his paintings than he is his lyrics . " Different people read different things into what they see , " he says . " It 's all subjective . " Having been touring practically non-stop since 1988 , Dylan grabs opportunities on the road to sketch and paint . This way , he 's not tied to timetables , methods or locations . " I just do it , " he says . " All kinds of places . Wherever I am , really . You can carry a sketchbook anywhere . Watercolours are easy to work with . You can set them up anywhere . The easels and paints are transferable . As far as acrylics and oils , I do them in a barn-like studio or a larger space . I can work in other painters ' studios , too . " As a rule , I usually avoid overcrowded streets @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ feels right . All of these things take time , and you are not going to get it down all at one time . " Once I put the generic forms down , later I can use pixellated imagery , photographs , advertisements , optical devices and so forth , to reconfigure things to complete the picture . There 's a process to it . I usually work on more than one painting at a time . Each one is different , depending how simple or complex they are . They all take different lengths of time . " A few years ago , Dylan began exhibiting huge iron installations , a number of which appear in the new Halcyon show . Bill Clinton was given one of his gates for his 65th birthday , and a 26-by-15-foot archway entitled Portal will become Dylan 's first public artwork when it goes on permanent display in Maryland later this year . " I was putting iron together even as far back as in my hometown Hibbing , Minnesota , an iron-mining town , but it was always only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't remember not doing it . It 's just not something I thought anybody else would be interested in . Most of my iron pieces up until the recent years were just for friends and family or myself . " As a painter , writer , film-maker , actor and disc jockey , Dylan plainly sees no limitations to artistic expression . But he does recognise his own limitations . " There 's a lot of things I 'd like to do , " he says . " I 'd like to drive a racecar on the Indianapolis track . I 'd like to kick a field goal in an NFL football game . I 'd like to be able to hit a hundred-mile-an-hour baseball . But you have to know your place . There might be some things that are beyond your talents . " Everything worth doing takes time . You have to write a hundred bad songs before you write one good one . And you have to sacrifice a lot of things that you might not be prepared for . Like it or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ follow your own star . " Halcyon Gallery presents a major exhibition of new works by Bob Dylan from 5 November -- 11 December . The Beaten Path opens to the public on 5 November and features a wide collection of drawings , watercolours and acrylic works on canvas which depict the artist 's view of American landscapes and urban scenes .

in beautiful of Austria - Esme Allen takes in the views as she glides down Zellam mountains
From the Austrian town of Zell am See there are two skiing areas , one directly accessible from the town and the other a 15 minute shuttle bus ride away in Kaprun . Zell am See itself is reasonably attractive . It has a smattering of historic and traditional buildings , a pretty town square , an interesting Gothic church and of course a great lake side location . We were lucky enough to be staying in the Grand Hotel Zell am See . The hotel 's spa boasts panoramic floor to ceiling windows , giving a fantastic view across the lake . Whether you 're relaxing on a recliner with a cup of herbal tea or in the sauna slowing cooking , you can peer over to the other side of the lake to try and guess which house used to belong to the Von Trapp family from The Sound of Music fame . Heading to the top of the Porsche family owned Schmittenhohe @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ To look out from 2000 metres at the range of snow topped mountains which appeared above the low lying clouds down in the valley was just stunning . There are a good variety of restaurants and bars too from the traditional wooden family run Alpine lodges to music filled bars aimed at the younger crowd . If you are looking to ski from Autumn into early summer , then where better to head than the high glacial slopes of Kuprun .

in beautiful of Austria - Esme Allen takes in the views as she glides down Zellam mountains
From the Austrian town of Zell am See there are two skiing areas , one directly accessible from the town and the other a 15 minute shuttle bus ride away in Kaprun . Zell am See itself is reasonably attractive . It has a smattering of historic and traditional buildings , a pretty town square , an interesting Gothic church and of course a great lake side location . We were lucky enough to be staying in the Grand Hotel Zell am See . The hotel 's spa boasts panoramic floor to ceiling windows , giving a fantastic view across the lake . Whether you 're relaxing on a recliner with a cup of herbal tea or in the sauna slowing cooking , you can peer over to the other side of the lake to try and guess which house used to belong to the Von Trapp family from The Sound of Music fame . Heading to the top of the Porsche family owned Schmittenhohe @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ To look out from 2000 metres at the range of snow topped mountains which appeared above the low lying clouds down in the valley was just stunning . There are a good variety of restaurants and bars too from the traditional wooden family run Alpine lodges to music filled bars aimed at the younger crowd . If you are looking to ski from Autumn into early summer , then where better to head than the high glacial slopes of Kuprun . This is a great resort for beginners or intermediate skiers as many of the slopes are wide and relatively gentle . There is also a great snow park where children can have fun practising their jumps and tricks . Escaping a freezing blizzard that had quickly engulfed the high altitude slopes , we headed back to Zell am See for a warming schnapps in one of the towns atmospheric bars before retreating back to the spa and a welcome massage .

10:17Saturday 29 October 2016 Nothing says Halloween quite like a magical fireworks display to light up the skies and this year 's Spooktacular festivities at Dungannon 's Hill of the O'Neill had been billed as revealing the mystery of the ancient hill with a grand fireworks finale . However , the exciting reveal will have to wait for another year after a murky blanket of fog cast a shadow over the Mid Ulster Council organised event . Rain and lingering fog descended on the hill shortly before the event started , obscuring the ten minute display and marring the enjoyment of hundreds who had been excitedly counting down the clock to the celebrations . For those who make Dungannon 's Halloween celebrations a yearly tradition , it 's usually well worth the wait . But this year , many people left the show early and disappointed . Some wondered if the show should have been rescheduled , and took to social media to vent their frustration . One Facebook user said the rate-payer funded display had been as well planned as the new road layout in the town @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fail ' , ' a flop ' and ' a disaster ' , and those were just the polite comments . A mother expressed her annoyance at bringing her children for the first time to the display and seeing nothing . " It was a terrible massive disappointment for the kids .

People started leaving straight away to see if you could get a better view from the Square but still nothing . A lot of cursing from people walking down the hill . " One cheeky commentator said he 'd seen better fireworks in his back garden .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'ruled out of qualifying' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'qualifying' is a noun in this context, not a verb in the -ing form.

Lewis Hamilton wants to emulate his commanding victory in America last week after storming to pole position for the Mexican Grand Prix . Hamilton , who is 26 points behind his title rival Nico Rosberg with only three races remaining , led virtually every lap in Austin to keep his slim championship hopes alive . Hamilton has been comfortably faster than his Mercedes team-mate all weekend in Mexico City , and while the Briton 's 10th pole position of the year never appeared in doubt , it looked at one stage as though Rosberg would start from only fourth on the grid . But the championship leader , who has been strangely out of sorts here , hauled his Mercedes on to the front row with his fastest lap of the weekend in the dieing moments of the session . Max Verstappen will start in third for Red Bull with his team-mate Daniel Ricciardo fourth . Hamilton can win all of the three remaining races , and still miss out on the championship . Indeed Rosberg can afford to finish second on two occasions , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is even a chance Rosberg could emulate his father Keke and be crowned champion tomorrow if he wins and Hamilton finishes 10th or lower . But for Hamilton , his only focus is on winning in front of a balmy Mexican crowd on Sunday , and thus taking the title tussle on to the final two grands prix in Brazil and Abu Dhabi next month . " I turned up to do the job and I 'm going to try to do the same thing as I did last weekend here , " said Hamilton , 31 . " So far this weekend has gone well , and I 'm looking forward to the race . The long runs seemed good and the car feels great , so I am just looking forward to getting out on track . " Rosberg was on course to start behind not only Hamilton , but Verstappen and Ricciardo , too , before he fought back from the brink to pull out his best offering of the weekend to pip the Red Bull pairing . While Rosberg was 0.2 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he will no doubt be relieved to start alongside his championship rival on the long run down to turn one tomorrow . " I am relatively pleased with that to definitely make sure I am on the front row , " said Rosberg . " It 's not pole position , of course , but it gives me great chance for tomorrow anyway . " I am feeling good , and I am optimistic . As we have seen this year , pole position is n't everything so there are still some opportunities and I am going to try and do the best I can tomorrow . To get a win in Mexico , that would be awesome . " Jolyon Palmer , the British rookie who is bidding to prove to his Renault bosses he is worthy of a second season with the team , will start from the back of the field tomorrow after he was ruled out of qualifying with a cracked chassis . Palmer 's Renault team discovered the problem after final practice on Saturday morning , but they were unable to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Kevin Magnussen qualified 14th , one place behind Jenson Button . Button , the 2009 world champion , who will bring to an end his run of 17 consecutive seasons in Abu Dhabi , was four tenths adrift of his McLaren team-mate Fernando Alonso , who qualified 11th . Elsewhere , Nico Hulkenberg was fifth for Force India , while the Ferrari pair of Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel , who threatened to take the challenge to both Mercedes and Red Bull on Saturday , a disappointing sixth and seventh on the grid .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

And already past six feet long , weighing in at just over 82lb with a gaping mouth to match , who would be brave enough to argue ? Derrick Taylor Now it is all stations go to dig out a new extra-spacious watery home for the giant Wels Catfish , ahead of his arrival at Fir Tree Fishery in Appley Bridge .

The British record for a rod caught Wels catfish was made two years ago when a 14 year old schoolboy landed a 122lb whopper from a mere in East Anglia . Now Derrick 's latest addition is set to become the biggest fisherman 's tale in the North . But unlike the boasting of anglers in the pub , this one will genuinely get bigger and bigger .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opted out of retouching her birthmarks', which is a different construction where 'opted out of' is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund, not involving a causer and causee relationship or the specific interpretations (movement/extraction or prevention) characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Coming across an ... Victoria 's Secret photo is pretty rare . But that 's exactly what happened recently when Victoria 's Secret released the final photos from their Fantasy Bra campaign . In an image taken last Thursday of the $3 million Victoria 's Secret Fashion Show Bright Night Fantasy Bra , model Jasmine Tookes ( who was this year 's chosen Angel to wear the Fantasy Bra ) strikes a sultry pose , showing off the incredible 450-carat bra and her enviable body . Stretch marks and all . Created by jewellery designer Eddie Borgo , the bra was specifically moulded to fit Tookes 's body before being covered in gemstones to ensure the perfect fit . And what better way to celebrate a multi-million dollar bra covered in rows of emeralds and studs covered in diamonds , than celebrate a woman 's natural body , too ? As is the case every year , the Fantasy Bra and model got their very own photo-shoot to celebrate the unique piece .

But while there ... a sense of what might have been had they stayed , perhaps the most galling for Palace fans is the sight of Glenn Murray doing well at arch-rivals Brighton & Hove Albion . Murray has returned to the Seagulls this season on loan from AFC Bournemouth , and has impressed in his second spell at the club , having previously played for Brighton before joining Palace on a free transfer in 2011 . Murray was undoubtedly a success with Palace , scoring 30 goals in their promotion-winning campaign in 2012-13 , before scoring eight goals in the Premier League with the Eagles over the next two seasons , after returning from a serious knee injury . But he went out on loan to Reading in 2014 , before leaving the Eagles permanently to join Bournemouth in 2015 , and now he is back with Brighton after joining the club on a season-long loan deal . And he is making his mark back in the Championship with the Seagulls , scoring a hat-trick in their 5-0 demolition of promotion rivals Norwich City on Saturday . He now has nine goals in 16 appearances for Brighton @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ south coast . His success will probably come as no surprise to Eagles fans , and his manager at Brighton , Chris Hughton , has described him as a " proven striker " at Championship level . But is it with a degree of disappointment for Palace fans that it is at Brighton he is enjoying such a fine season ? Some have been commenting on Murray 's fine form on social media , and it would appear that Palace fans are split on the matter , as can be seen below . Glenn Murray hattrick !

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('I' + 'wouldn't rule' + 'me' + 'out of coming back for another crack next year'). It also allows for a movement/extraction interpretation, where the subject is causing the object (which is coreferential with the subject in this case, using 'me') to be excluded from the event of 'coming back for another crack next year'. This fits the atypical type of NP object where the subject and object are coreferential, similar to example (6a).

but driven too . Crowley reckoned he had covered 25,000 miles in his car since July alone . A sniff of the jockeys ' title had sent him into overdrive . And on this autumn Saturday -- this day of champions -- his weighing room colleagues formed a guard of honour for one of the most popular and hardworking members of their profession .
Jim Crowley and Freddy Tylicki have been taken to the major-trauma centre at St George 's Hospital in Tooting with suspected spinal injuries Crowley was a proud man . A happy man . " The harder the better , " he told us , discussing his extraordinary workload . " The hard work -- I 've thrived on it . A.P . McCoy 's work ethic rubbed off on me . " That reference to the retired 20-time champion National Hunt rider was also a reminder that Crowley had left the more perilous world of the jumps to ride on the Flat , where he took detailed fitness and nutritional advice to smooth the way . The crash that put Crowley and Frederik Tylicki in hospital with suspected spinal injuries happened so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ If the eye struggled , the brain knew straight away that this was not a routine tumble . Horses and four riders are sent through a violent spin of plummeting bodies and drumming hooves in a way that sets the internal alarm bells ringing .

Everybody 's thoughts at Racing UK with Freddie Tylicki and Jim Crowley. **26;1525;TOOLONG Among the many sentences filed subsequently , one had a particular clarity : " Crowley , 38 , was taken by ambulance and Tylicki , 30 , was flown to the major trauma unit at St George 's Hospital in Tooting with suspected spinal injuries . " Air ambulances on racecourse are harbingers of doom . Those descending metal birds are the last things jockeys ever want to see . And while it would be deeply irresponsible to make assumptions about the extent of the injuries suffered by Crowley and Tylicki , the precariousness of race riding has seldom been more apparent at a British Flat racing fixture . On the replays , you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ its own and left two of the four riders needing prolonged medical attention on the track , which , in Flat racing , is unusual . As was the decision to abandon the meeting after consultation with other jockeys , who probably did n't have the stomach to continue while their colleagues were on their way to a " major trauma unit " -- one , in a helicopter , in a scene that must have been more redolent of a calamity on the adjoining M3 . The clerk of the course at Kempton referred to the abandonment gravely as " a mark of respect " from the weighing room . Frederik Tylicki ( left ) and Jim Crowley were taken to hospital following the incident On this same routine Monday , I happened to be at Plumpton , where several National Hunt riders hit the deck after jumping hurdles and fences . Always , the eye lingers for a moment to see whether they make it back to their feet .

But racing , in both codes , is a sport where the pilots know there is a degree of risk , and accept it , as a price worth paying for an activity they love .

The sentence does not exhibit the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It mentions 'Bamford scored vital goals out of nothing', where 'out of nothing' is a prepositional phrase indicating the manner or origin of the goals, not involving a VP2[-ing] predicate or a causee. Therefore, it does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction.

There have been ... twists at Derby County in 2016 than you would have seen on a dance floor in the early Sixties . The Rams entered the year sitting second in the Championship and now find themselves 18th , although a run of just one defeat in six is a good sign on the pitch . Off the pitch it has been a year of chopping and changing . There have been four different managers/head coaches , five if you count Chris Powell 's stint in temporary charge . Head coach Paul Clement was sacked in February after only eight months in the job and Nigel Pearson , the type of manager viewed by many as the missing piece in the Rams ' jigsaw , lasted only four months . Steve McClaren , who was sacked as head coach 17 months earlier , is back as manager and Chris Evans has been appointed technical director only 13 months after he resigned as the club 's head of football operations with immediate effect . Evans ' role previously centred on recruitment and his task was to develop the club 's senior football recruitment department . He was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coach ) , Sam Rush ( chief executive ) and himself as head of football operations . The trio dealt with football issues and Evans will again " provide key operational support " to McClaren . Whether his surprise return affects the recruitment set up currently in place remains to be seen because it was only in August that Derby appointed Steve Hitchen and Rob Mackenzie as directors of recruitment . Hitchen and Mackenzie came in to oversee recruitment , analysis and scouting operations . Evans , 54 , has significant and varied experience in a number of roles . He has been a player , a coach , a head of recruitment , an academy manager , a performance director , an assistant manager and caretaker manager in his career . Fans have been discussing and judging the signings made by Derby during Evans ' previous spell at the club . Seven of the XI that started Saturday 's victory over Sheffield Wednesday arrived in his time at Derby and Rams twice broke their transfer record to bring in Tom Ince and Bradley Johnson @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ team that get promoted have had loan signings , it 's part of the game , they can make a difference , a big difference , do n't all come off but , Wisdom - he played a huge part in the massive improvement , Bamford scored vital goals out of nothing , I agree the loan players should be the icing on the cake but we have seen under Mac before his contacts and style always interest Premiership managers to loan to us. ( your point about ? 35 million is ? ) ..... I 'm not sure McClaren spent large sums of money , nor wasted what he did . His first two tasks were to re-sign the club 's stars , which he did ( keeping Bryson was seen as a masterstroke at the time ) , and getting enough players into the Under 21s to make them competitive as we were seriously short of players in that area of the club . Players signed for the first team almost all did a job , and were not expensive . Christie is certainly worth more than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ very good first team player , George Thorne was easily worth the money we paid for him at the time and seen as an excellent and exciting signing by most , Shotton came and went again without losing us money , the Albentosa signing did n't work out at all , but we made money on the deal . All other signings made by McClaren were free or loans . The only completely failed loan signing was Leon Best , although due to the success of the club throughout most of his time he hardly played . The majority of loan signings moved us forwards , and most of them signed permanently after their loans . Loan signings in Jan can make a difference but can only be relied on for a short term plan , we definitely need to recruit better for bargins in the lower leagues and abroad but there needs to be a balance of short term and long term vision . We 've taken on far too much risk and we 've seen the results of that approach too so there needs to be a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ time is so important to get right , we 're doing the latter part well but now we need to find gems from within or relatively cheaply who are hungry to improve and play in the PL to move forward . Loan signings have a role to play but they have to be part of a long term strategy in which good , long term signings form the bedrock of our club .. No football club can spend ? 35 million as badly as Derby County and hope for a sustained run of success . To quote McClaren the team is nowhere near the level that he wants it to be and he , and everyone else who has been part of the story since Clough left , have to take responsibility for that . He and the others have spent large sums of money but we find ourselves needing even greater turnover in January and next summer , assuming that we can afford it . The loan players have come and gone but the permanent signings remain and its only when they step up to the plate that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Loans can form part of the master plan but the great majority of that plan has to have much longer term goals . Yet another negative post by beaufort1 , so let 's look at 4 of the high profile permanent signings , Ince and Bent , both signed after very successful loan periods , so at the time , good signings . Butterfield and Johnson , signed after long term injuries to Hughes and Bryson , so at the time , good signings . All 4 suffered a dip in form under different managers , but we saw on Saturday what decent players they are . Unlike some that post here , the majority of Rams ' fans ' want them and the team to succeed . Loan signings often take clubs forward , more clubs promoted from this division than not have done so with a well placed loan signing or two in their squad . Mostly the loan player goes back , but not always , but if he has contributed to promotion then he has certainly taken the club forward in the short term @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ promotion in the medium or long term after the player has left that is not the fault of the loan signing , but the fault of the club for not taking advantage of the position they have found themselves in . Loan signings are not going to take DCFC forward in the medium to long term , they come and they go but they do n't add any permanent value to the squad . Evans and McClaren ( not to mention Morris and Rush ) have to be judged on the permanent signings they have brought to the club and on the legacy they have left for the future , in that regard the picture is far from rosy . Its much , much easier to go to a Premier League side and ask for one of their best kids on loan than it is to find an Andre Gray or Alan Judge in the lower leagues at a bargain price . In that regard they have failed so far . It would be harsh to judge Lingard and Keane as poor signings given that they 're both @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the England squad . DCFC did exceptionally well to get both guys into the club . Keane was unfortunate that Keogh and Buxton were a solid pairing , and we struggled to find a natural spot for Lingard , but he still contributed . |

The sentence 'Leah and Zac try to talk VJ out of quitting school.' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject (Leah and Zac) + V1 (talk) + NP object (VJ) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (quitting school). It also induces a prevention interpretation, where Leah and Zac are attempting to prevent VJ from quitting school. The verb 'talk' falls under the category of means by enticing, flattering, or verbal persuasion. The NP object 'VJ' is a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'quitting school'.

IDK who could possibly be lurking at the back of my second floor apartment , but I just ca n't risk loitering in the dark . We ca n't function in the dark , but lions can , and we still have n't outgrown the instinct to protect ourselves from nocturnal hunters . Another study by the Ryerson University in Toronto found that a fear of the dark could result in sleep problems where the sufferer does not realising that the night phobias they are experiencing ( a fear of burglars , for instance ) are actually a fear of darkness that may stem from our ancestors ' experiences . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ An individual may not be able to fall asleep once it 's dark and their mind starts to wander .

The architects behind ... proposed new stadium for Forest Green that will be built entirely from wood insist it will be safe . The worst fire disaster in the history of football occurred at Bradford City 's Valley Parade Stadium , which had a wooden roof in their main stand , with 56 people being killed when attending a match against Lincoln City in 1985 . However , Jim Heverin , director at Zaha Hadid Architects , explained : " We 're talking about engineered timber so we 're moving on a long way from the stadiums that were built in the 50s and 60s and we 're talking about design which is very conservative in terms of escape from the seats . " The timber will be treated so it 's fire protected and all the smoke issues would be dealt with so it would be a very safe stadium .

Remember , remember the 5th of November -- as being one of the most stressful times of the year for cats and dogs . However , the barrages of Fireworks thsi weekend could become a little more bearable for our kitty and canine population . That 's with the release of the first films for cats and dogs that are scientifically developed to help reduce stress caused by fireworks . The films for cats and dogs have been developed by MORE TH>N Pet Insurance and feature the unmistakable voice of actor David Tennant as soothing narrator . The movies are playfully entitled Woofering Heights and Peer Window in homage to the Emily Bronte and Alfred Hitchcock classics . Although to humans the short films may appear abstract and surreal they are highly compelling viewing for their intended audiences of cats and dogs .

MORE TH>N worked closely with animal behaviourist Karen Wild and vet Robert White-Adams throughout the making of both films . In addition to compiling an in-depth academic report , Karen Wild consulted on both productions to ensure they would stay true to the research and have the potential to relax cats and dogs and counter the effects of noise phobia . To that stress-busting end , ' Peer Window ' is set entirely within a window frame to reflect a cat 's habitual behaviour of staring out of windows for approximately five hours a day . The film depicts a blend of animate and inanimate objects , as recommended by the academic research , including looping scenes of fish , swaying trees , rain droplets @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ these scenes are melodic sounds in cat-friendly frequencies and the softly spoken tones of David Tennant -- based on the scientific insight that a human voice can relax cats .

What 's more , the film has been shot entirely in a dog 's colour spectrum of blues and yellows -- heightening the viewing experience for them . The films are designed to be played to cats and dogs a number of times , allowing them to become familiar with the content and learn by association . Both of the short films replay after the credits roll to reinforce the feelings of calm and relaxation . Karen Wild , pet behavioural expert , said : " Noise phobia in cats and dogs can lead to distress , injury and long-term behavioural problems , so it 's important @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ can to help calm and relax their animals .

" George Lewis , head of pet insurance at MORE TH>N , said : " For us if a film sends the audience to sleep it 's generally regarded as a sign that it 's a bad film . However , creating a soporific state is the exact intention of the films for cats and dogs .

These problems are mainly associated with dogs but more and more we 're seeing problems with cats too . Anything we can do to move their attention away from what 's scaring them to something more calming and relaxing is a valuable tool to have . " In addition to playing the films to cats and dogs , owners can try to reduce the impact of fireworks by following the advice from vet Robert White-Adams below : 1 .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It also does not give rise to either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'squeezing every last drop out of being in Chicago' is more idiomatic and does not involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

For New Zealand ... the inquest will begin in earnest . Far too lethargic , too indisciplined in the first half they left themselves with just too much to do and having raced through the gears like only they can they could not quite get their noses in front and Henshaw 's try proved decisive -- in the same way that Sexton 's missed penalty three years ago would have . They of course are not superhuman , they were always going to lose at some point but fingers will be pointed at the fact that it was in Chicago . All week has been one rampant PR machine -- the All Blacks determined to spread their gospel to the US , aware of the commercial avenues it represents , especially with an impasse over the global calendar beyond 2019 . It may of course have nothing to do with it , Ireland were inspired after all , but punt out that many pictures of players squeezing every last drop out of being in Chicago and fingers will be pointed . But they will be back . On a separate note , all England have to do is win all four @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ beat New Zealand 's record ... Rory Best is speaking to NBC on the pitch : " We just talked about attacking New Zealand . You can see how much it means to our boys . I could n't be prouder of the work we put in . It 's been a long time coming , it 's history made . We 're ecstatic . " New Zealand 's winning streak of 18 comes to an end , paying the price in the end for a quite woeful first-half performance . Take nothing away from Ireland though -- Murray , Sexton , Stander , Zebo , Best ... take your pick , they were all fantastic . Standing up to the haka in a figure of eight in tribute to Anthony Foley , Ireland were magnificent from the word go . It got hairy in the second half , it was always likely to , and when Scott Barrett 's try -- converted by his brother Beauden -- brought New Zealand to within four , the comeback felt inevitable . But it was not to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Dublin three years ago the last time these sides met but not this time . Dejected New Zealand players look on following their defeat . Photograph : Phil Walter/Getty Images At the 29th time of trying , after 111 years , Ireland have beaten the All Blacks , in Chicago , in the same week as the Cubs ended their 108-year wait for a World Series . Remarkable ! Absolutely remarkable ! John McEnerney ( @MackerOnTheMed ) @gerardmeagher mother of sweet lanterin jaysus ! What a performance ! Super stuff ! As I said before up there with Logan 's Eurovision wins ! 80 mins : Carbery misses the penalty but it is not going to matter . Henshaw almost pounces on a loose ball for another try but it 's a knock-on and a New Zealand scrum . There are seconds to go , the clock is red ... it 's an Ireland penalty ! And that 's the full-time whistle ! 78 mins : New Zealand have the ball but it keeps going to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be no way back from this . New Zealand knock it on , give away the penalty and Ireland will cruise to victory -- a first ever victory against the All Blacks in 111 years of trying . 75 mins : Oh wow . Murray fires the scrum to Carbery , who finds Payne , who loops a brave pass to Zebo . His kick on is perfectly judged and Ireland swarm on Savea who is pushed out . It 's an Ireland scrum , five metres out ... a reminder that they lead by four points ! 73 mins : Heaslip picks up and finds Murray who nudges through , New Zealand have it five metres from halfway . Barrett brings them into the Ireland half . Perenara has been fantastic since he came on . He 's changed the game dare I say it but Ireland are still remarkably committed in defence and Trimble forces the error from Squire . Another Ireland scrum . Just over six minutes to hold out . 72 mins : New Zealand get the driving maul going , and going @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ come forwards . Perenara almost snipes through but it 's with the forwards again . It 's knocked on by I think Faumuina . Respite for Ireland again . Although they 'll need to win the scrum and go again . 70 mins : Barrett finds touch . There have been a raft of replacements but Coles is still on finds Read . Ireland have forced the knock-on on the edge of the Ireland 22 though and Murray boots it clear . Savea fields , kicks to Carbery who calls for the mark . And breathe a bit more . 68 mins : Stander rips off his scrum cap and throws it away . Murray puts in . Ireland keep the ball in hand and Dillane has a blast . Still Ireland are in their own half and it 's New Zealand with the frightening line speed . Murray clears and Carbery was a shade too early with his tackle on Barrett . 66 mins : Carbery earns Ireland a bit of time with an excellent touchfinder so New Zealand have it in their own 22 . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into touch , Coles takes the lineout quickly and the All Blacks are almost away again , Savea unable to hold on to the ball on the left .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It also does not exhibit either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'squeezing every last drop out of being in Chicago' is more idiomatic and does not involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

For New Zealand ... the inquest will begin in earnest . Far too lethargic , too indisciplined in the first half they left themselves with just too much to do and having raced through the gears like only they can they could not quite get their noses in front and Henshaw 's try proved decisive -- in the same way that Sexton 's missed penalty three years ago would have . They of course are not superhuman , they were always going to lose at some point but fingers will be pointed at the fact that it was in Chicago . All week has been one rampant PR machine -- the All Blacks determined to spread their gospel to the US , aware of the commercial avenues it represents , especially with an impasse over the global calendar beyond 2019 . It may of course have nothing to do with it , Ireland were inspired after all , but punt out that many pictures of players squeezing every last drop out of being in Chicago and fingers will be pointed . But they will be back . On a separate note , all England have to do is win all four @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ beat New Zealand 's record ... Rory Best is speaking to NBC on the pitch : " We just talked about attacking New Zealand . You can see how much it means to our boys . I could n't be prouder of the work we put in . It 's been a long time coming , it 's history made . We 're ecstatic . " New Zealand 's winning streak of 18 comes to an end , paying the price in the end for a quite woeful first-half performance . Take nothing away from Ireland though -- Murray , Sexton , Stander , Zebo , Best ... take your pick , they were all fantastic . Standing up to the haka in a figure of eight in tribute to Anthony Foley , Ireland were magnificent from the word go . It got hairy in the second half , it was always likely to , and when Scott Barrett 's try -- converted by his brother Beauden -- brought New Zealand to within four , the comeback felt inevitable . But it was not to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Dublin three years ago the last time these sides met but not this time . Dejected New Zealand players look on following their defeat . Photograph : Phil Walter/Getty Images At the 29th time of trying , after 111 years , Ireland have beaten the All Blacks , in Chicago , in the same week as the Cubs ended their 108-year wait for a World Series . Remarkable ! Absolutely remarkable ! John McEnerney ( @MackerOnTheMed ) @gerardmeagher mother of sweet lanterin jaysus ! What a performance ! Super stuff ! As I said before up there with Logan 's Eurovision wins ! 80 mins : Carbery misses the penalty but it is not going to matter . Henshaw almost pounces on a loose ball for another try but it 's a knock-on and a New Zealand scrum . There are seconds to go , the clock is red ... it 's an Ireland penalty ! And that 's the full-time whistle ! 78 mins : New Zealand have the ball but it keeps going to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be no way back from this .

It 's an Ireland scrum , five metres out ... a reminder that they lead by four points ! 73 mins : Heaslip picks up and finds Murray who nudges through , New Zealand have it five metres from halfway . Barrett brings them into the Ireland half . Perenara has been fantastic since he came on .

It 's knocked on by I think Faumuina . Respite for Ireland again . Although they 'll need to win the scrum and go again . 70 mins : Barrett finds touch . There have been a raft of replacements but Coles is still on finds Read . Ireland have forced the knock-on on the edge of the Ireland 22 though and Murray boots it clear . Savea fields , kicks to Carbery who calls for the mark . And breathe a bit more . 68 mins : Stander rips off his scrum cap and throws it away . Murray puts in . Ireland keep the ball in hand and Dillane has a blast . Still Ireland are in their own half and it 's New Zealand with the frightening line speed .

The morale boost of Manchester City 's late concession of two points at home to Middlesbrough perhaps further underlined the importance for Chelsea to make the most of their enforced midweek down-time while the other title contenders sweat it out in the Champions League . There is plenty of mileage in these well-drilled and well-rested Chelsea legs . Even at the height of Mourinho 's influence , Chelsea were never electric out of the blocks , often content to wait until a half-time dressing-down before gathering some steam . Under Conte , that evidently does n't wash . Their 19th-minute opener , created and finished by the irresistible Eden Hazard before it could even be identified as a half-chance , seemed almost sluggish in comparison with recent starts . Similarly , when Mourinho-era wins seemed in the bag , Chelsea would often shut down , keeping the rest of their powder dry for the next game . But their thinner 2016/17 fixture list does n't just allow them to keep the foot on the pedal until the 90th minute - it demands it . Ten minutes after the break , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up on the right to torment Everton 's semi-willing makeshift left-back Ramiro Funes Mori , slaloming through with embarrassing ease to add a fourth . The final flourish to the scoreline , a deserved goal for Pedro in 64th minute , summed up almost everything good about this Chelsea side at the moment : Costa giving the scruff of the game 's neck another brutal shake , barrelling past Jagielka and teeing up Hazard . Now on a hat-trick , the Belgian 's shot could only be palmed into the path of Pedro , whose little legs had barely stopped all evening . Kante and Matic are forming quite a partnership . Credit : PA Matic/Kante axis dominates flimsy Everton midfield A one-game suspension for Idrissa Gueye denied us the spectacle of a midfield clash with N'Golo Kante - two men who , for the last two seasons , have made it their mission to give tackles and interceptions the same significance as goals and assists . As soon as Gueye was shown his fifth yellow of the season last weekend , today 's midfield battle @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , without his pocket battleship alongside him , was instead assisted by Tom Cleverley and Ross Barkley in a 3-5-2 designed to combat Chelsea 's flourishing shape . Sheer numbers alone , it turned out , was n't going to be enough for Everton . After 18 minutes , Chelsea broke through with ease , worked the ball out to Hazard on the left , who drilled in a low shot into the far corner . Barely a minute later , Hazard now went inside , darting at the heart of the Everton defence to feed Pedro on the right , whose cross was eventually rammed home by Marcos Alonso . The Koeman gameplan lasted a shade over half an hour - Bryan Oviedo was withdrawn for Kevin Mirallas as Everton reshaped to a 4-2-3-1 , but Chelsea proceeded only to exploit the uncertainty that switch caused . Costa is on fire this season . Credit : PA Costa outshines Lukaku to rubber-stamp Chelsea 's resurgence Enough water has passed under the bridge since Romelu Lukaku left Chelsea permanently in 2014 - and plenty of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ point-proving exercise against a former club . Lukaku , on paper at least , represented the most rigorous test of Chelsea 's sudden solidity in defence . An early surge past Azpilicueta - not often left in anyone 's wake - needed David Luiz to hurriedly step in . After that , Lukaku did n't get another chance to isolate any of Chelsea 's back three , now fully at home in Conte 's perfectly balanced system . Lukaku did n't perform against his old club . Credit : PA At the other end , Diego Costa - an unsettled figure in the summer as Chelsea pondered an astronomical fee to bring Lukaku back again - passed a notable early test of his own . After Seamus Coleman drew blood from Costa 's ankle with a heavy challenge , some quarters of Stamford Bridge held their breath for either an early substitution or , worse , some colossal retribution . The red mist did indeed begin to descend , but Costa swiftly refocused on looking for the ball . He waited until the 41st minute to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ back post from a set piece to add to Hazard and Marcos Alonso 's equally decisive finishes . He could and should have made it 4-0 at half-time , steering the ball past a leaden-footed Phil Jagielka to bear down on Maarten Stekelenburg 's goal - only to find the side-netting . The only relieved Everton defender was Coleman , whose unpunished challenge was now almost forgotten in the subsequent Chelsea onslaught . In the second half , the contrast was even more stark between the two frontmen . Lukaku 's only moment of note was being gleefully circumvented by a mildly showboating David Luiz , by which time Costa had already blazed a trail for Chelsea 's 5-0 lead . The playing field was hardly level by that point , but Chelsea boasted the man capable of dragging something out of nothing . |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('banned out of cycling for life'). It implies a prevention interpretation where the subject (Tinkov) is causing the object (Riis, Bruyneel, and Vaughters) to be prevented from participating in cycling. The verb 'banned' fits the category of exerting force or pressure, and the NP object functions as a causee. Therefore, it is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Oleg Tinkov and ... former owner of the Tinkoff team , Bjarne Riis , have been involved in a public spat over the running of the squad and its subsequent demise at the end of the 2016 season . Dane Riis sold the team to Tinkov in December 2013 , originally staying on as general manager before the leaving the squad by ' mutual agreement ' in March 2015 after the two allegedly had an argument at the Tirreno-Adriatico stage race . Tinkov took over running the team , but folded the squad this winter . Tinkoff 's star riders Alberto Contador and Peter Sagan have signed with new teams for 2017 . Last week , Riis announced he was taking over the continental men 's and women 's Virtu teams for 2017 . In Danish newspaper Ekstra Bladet , he openly criticised Russian businessman Tinkov over the two 's break-up last year . " I enjoyed the respect of the riders and the other employees , " Riis said . " Respect is something you have to deserve . It is not something you buy . " The sad part is that everything I built up over @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a short time . Oleg 's biggest mistake was to remove the philosophy I 'd instilled in the team . I do n't think he 'd thought through what it meant to change the team that way . " Watch : Secrets of the Toolbox -- Tinkoff Responding to Riis 's comments , Tinkov said that if he had his way , Bjarne Riis , and cycling team managers Johan Bruyneel and Jonathan Vaughters would be barred from cycling for life . " People like Riis , Bruyneel and Vaughters must be banned out of cycling for life , " Tinkov told Cyclingnews . " They not only highly promoted doping , but also materially benefit from it . I see this as a crime , actually . Pity that such people are getting back into my sport . " He continued : " Riis must know that once ownership has changed , the new owner can do whatever with his property .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object and the verb 'come' is intransitive. Additionally, the phrase 'out of hiding' does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate, and there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

In the moments ... Infinite Warfare has the courage of its convictions , when its various systems sync-up sufficiently , we get a tantalising taste of its true potential . These moments usually come when the protagonist , Nick Reyes , leaves terra firma and zips about in zero-gravity , course-correcting with boosters and engaging enemy soldiers against the backdrop of gargantuan spaceships smashing into one another . In between precision shots from his Ghostbusters-like energy weapon , he grapples on to a grunt and pulls the pin on his grenade before kicking him towards two buddies , who look on helplessly as he greets them with an explosion . That taken care of , Reyes grapples to his waiting Jackal space fighter and boosts off to begin dogfighting with enemy craft . Needless to say , Call of Duty 's production values ensure such episodes look spectacular . They may not be perfect in execution -- rotation can become disorientating and enemy AI remains erratic -- but they at least attempt to jolt this long-running series off its sometimes derided rails . Disappointingly though , Infinity Ward 's latest offering is mostly the familiar CoD routine of boots-on-the-ground combat in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ here , those boots are rocket-boosted and wall-run-capable . Even this concept is a pale imitation of Titanfall at its finest , boasting similar fundamentals but not the conviction to make them integral . While traversing these familiar sci-fi environments -- futuristic cityscape , ice planet , rock planet , space station -- parkour is mostly unnecessary . The old problem of this game 's key narrative delivery technique remains : you have to follow computer-controlled characters who yell orders and exposition at you , but often they move too slow and it gets frustrating -- like attempting to navigate Oxford Street on a particularly chaotic festive shopping day . The sheer number of times the game strips control away from you remains extraordinary -- after a while , even the most impressive cinematic moments become a deadening intrusion . The first time you 're blasted out of an airlock it 's inarguably impressive and it even feels appropriate that you 're helpless . The second time is simply irritating . The third time , you just want to drift away forever like Frank Poole in 2001 : A @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lack freedom . Attempts to flank the enemy are thwarted by a curt prompt to return to the " combat zone " or be booted . The space craft combat sequences are a mess . The physics lack heft and movement feels erratic . Opposing fighters are simple to lock on to but the game then wrests control away to track them . Occasionally , when you kill an enemy , a playing card will pop up to tell you he was a big cheese ( in an imitation of the American ploy towards rogue Ba'athists in 2003 ) , but since you only find this out after killing them it renders the whole scheme somewhat pointless . You shot them just the same as all the others ; that 's all you do in CoD . Much is made of the fact you 're a captain but you ca n't issue orders in the field and , despite a Mass Effect-like galaxy map to navigate on your ship 's bridge , you can not shape the campaign 's outcome . You can select two types of side-mission -- @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is merely upgraded equipment . It 's certainly no Mass Effect in this respect -- and while that comparison is harsh , it 's conditioned by the developer 's flagrant desire for you to care about your mission and crew ; the message about prioritising one over the other crowbarred into every conversation . The setting at least allows the game to sidestep CoD 's traditionally problematic politics , even if the opening sneak-attack on Geneva subtly nods towards Pearl Harbour and 9/11 . Not being offensive should n't be praiseworthy , however , and the Martian secessionists led by Salen Kotch ( a space-scenery-chewing Kit Harington ) are so comically evil , and your means for defeating them so silly , they undermine any questions about military service the game attempts to tackle . The defeat of the villain is woefully anticlimactic , whereas the finale has dramatic deaths for minor crew members you 'd barely noticed hitherto . While the credits roll you can listen to letters from the fallen , meant to sum up the series ' earnest move away from " press x to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mind the deliberately ridiculous barbecue dream of BJ Blazkowicz in the last Wolfenstein . The characters here lack the script to justify you caring . The damning irony is only wisecracking robot Ethan sounds remotely human . For all these flaws , CoD 's core shooting mechanics , refined over countless iterations , still make for a fine corridor and multiplayer shooter . Every weapon comes with alternative fire modes and being creative in your kills is part of the appeal . Innovations such as anti-grav grenades and spider bots ( which scuttle over to enemies before discharging ) spice things up , not least when they 're deployed against you . One of the most enjoyable new tactics in the campaign is the ability to take direct control of enemy bots by hacking them , unleashing rounds on their bewildered allies before detonating to take as many with you as you can . After completing the game , you can replay the whole thing in modes like Yolo , which offers a challenging permadeath mechanic that encourages a whole different approach ( ie a lot of hiding @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as a multiplayer experience Photograph : Activision The online multiplayer modes are the best thing . The campaign 's traversal mechanics come out of hiding and the wealth of options become apparent . Whether you 're angling for nuts and bolts deathmatch on a lunch break , or something more substantial , CoD remains a silly , slick and intuitive shooter that sucks you in and keeps you there . The ready-built combat rigs cater to different play styles so you can instantly pick the right loadout , whether you like to snipe or stab . For the first time there 's weapon crafting , too , and a conscious effort to reward players for attempting different match-types , not to mention a neat 1980s theme park reboot of zombie survival . Prototype weapons are the strongest in the game -- graded common to epic -- and you obtain them by earning salvage as you play or completing challenges with one of four mission teams . The holy grail is a gun that provides a nuclear blast if you can string together 25 kills . Crucially , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the camera being yanked-away as you complete them . Infinite Warfare improves online because the game does n't dictate your experiences precisely as the developers intended . In many ways the campaign feels like a wrestling match between your game and theirs , perhaps a mirroring of their attempt to innovate within the constraints of the CoD franchise behemoth . But this does n't excuse a forgettable plot or inferior fighting to its triple-A peers . Infinite Warfare could have been much more than a passable single-player movie attached to a super fast , super confident multiplayer infrastructure . As such , and with those moments of tantalising potential in mind , it feels like a wasted opportunity . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes a physical action (limping) resulting in exiting a situation (training), without involving a causer causing a causee to move or preventing them from an action. The phrase 'out of training' does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate, and there is no NP object functioning as a causee.

@ @ residents walk out of meeting in Netley Abbey
HAMPSHIRE residents walked out ' in disgust ' after a controversial housing plan was agreed . Around 50 members took the action after planning applications for new houses were approved in Netley . The plan to build 89 new dwellings in the town was approved for the site on the north side of Grange road in Netley Abbey . The meeting of six councillors from the Bursledon , Hamble and Netley area committee saw Councillor for Hamble and Butlocks Heath Elizabeth Lear vote against the application , but she was the only one to do so . Councillor Lear said : " Our town is at the mercy of developers and that area ca n't handle it . " I feel very sorry for our residents . Traffic on that road is narrow and it is a very busy road , the access is not a good idea . " There has been a lot of development around and this strategic gap is the last one between us and Woolston . " Filed by Stratlands Estates Ltd , the approval of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of more houses . Zoe Walne , 38 , a resident from Butlocks Heath said : " People simply do n't want it . From a residential point of view , the local services ca n't and wo n't be able to cope . " The land that they want to build on has water running down into it as well , it 's like a marsh land . " The only reason they have approved this is because they ca n't keep up with the demand for housing . " However , Councillor for Netley Abbey , David Airey was pleased with the outcome . Councillor Airey said : " I can understand why residents were upset and why they may rather not have new buildings on that site . " It complies with the national policy framework and it is sustainable . " That site is in walking distance to shops , trains and buses .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'China' is the NP subject, 'pushed' is V1, 'the value of its currency' is the NP object, and 'slowing economic growth' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also fits the prevention interpretation, as China is attempting to prevent the effects of slowing economic growth by exporting. The verb 'pushed' can be categorized under exerting force or pressure, fitting one of the verb classifications for this construction. The NP object 'the value of its currency' is not a causee, but the overall structure and interpretation align with the transitive out of -ing construction, especially considering the atypical NP object types allowed.

Judy Shelton , an economist and senior fellow at the Atlas Network and adviser to Trump on monetary policy , told the Wall Street Journal that " he 's not urging her to resign at all " . However , the Journal reports that Shelton did concede that Trump was minded to replace Yellen when she completes her first term in 2018 . He 's saying he 'd want someone whose thinking is more in keeping with his own .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('China') + V1 ('pushed') + NP object ('the value of its currency') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('slowing economic growth'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where China is attempting to prevent the negative effects of slowing economic growth by means of exporting. The verb 'pushed' can be categorized under exerting force or pressure, which aligns with the types of verbs that can appear in the V1 slot of the construction. Additionally, the NP object 'the value of its currency' is being acted upon by the subject 'China' to achieve the goal described in the VP2[-ing] predicate, fulfilling the causee requirement.

The iron ore producer Fortescue is the top riser at well over 10.6% but Macquarie and BHP have also shown big gains . My colleague Melissa Davey has just filed this report on the morning 's surge . Read more Meanwhile , Chris Weston at IG in Melbourne has this : The combination of huge gains in materials , fiscals and energy should push the ASX 200 3.4% , which if it closes at that level would be the strongest gain since 6 October 2011 PFS ( @pottsfinancial ) Incredible gains this morning . Many were predicting further losses after Trump was elected . Will this last ? #ASX200 Well @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ expected to -- on a number of levels . The surprise of Trump 's win looked like leading to market meltdown across the world . But it did n't , thanks in part it seems to Trump 's conciliatory speech , proving that investors hate uncertainty more than anything . The promise of a smooth handover of power , a united Congress , tax cuts and a huge infrastructure spending boost was enough to turn red screens green . A screen shows the big gains made by the Dow Jones industrial average in New York on Wednesday , defying predictions of a huge selloff . Photograph : Brendan Mcdermid/Reuters Here 's how they finished in the US and Europe The Dow Jones up 1.4% to 18,590 points . The S&P 500 up 1.1% to 21,163 . The Nasdaq up 1.1% to 5,251 . FTSE100 up 1% to 6,911.84 Dax up 1.56% to 10,646 In Australia the market has already taken that lead and opened up by nearly 3% . Can it be sustained ? The stunning turn in sentiment suggests there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ announced during the campaign was a sales pitch rather than a commitment to act . Investors ignored the potential for damage to international trade and growth prospects and focussed on Republican control of both houses of Congress as well as the White House . This offers the prospect of reform that could stimulate the US economy . However , last night 's action may be as good as it gets for markets for some time . Policy uncertainty and populist agendas rarely lead to sustainable economic growth . There 's much to look at and talk about . But in the meantime start with our economics editor Larry Elliott 's examination of what a Trump win might mean for the global economy . |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'some people' is the NP object and 'living in the area' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, as it implies that some people would be prevented from living in the area due to being priced out. The verb 'priced' can be classified under the means of exerting force or pressure, which is one of the categories of verbs that can appear in the V1 slot of the construction. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The redeveloped shoe ... at St Mary 's Works could have a glass roof . Pic : Architekton Plans for the area around St Mary 's Works and St George 's Works are being developed , with architect developers Architekton looking to transform the site into starter homes , family houses and " prime " homes - for those aged 55 years and over - as well as ' live/work ' spaces , technical and creative hubs . Following consultation with the public , some aspects of the proposed scheme were announced in the summer , but the developers presented city councillors with some of their other ideas at a meeting yesterday . It includes the demolition of St Mary 's House on St Crispins roundabout to build a hotel with about a hundred beds , turning St Mary 's Works into a ' factory of the mind ' and building around 196 new homes . An initial planning application is due to be lodged with the city council next month , with more specific proposals to be submitted in summer next year . An artist 's impression of some of the new homes . Pic : Architekton @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Norwich and London , said : " We have two of the largest remaining shoe factories in Norwich and it 's important that we respect that industrial heritage . " I think the whole development will be improved by keeping those buildings and re-purposing it . What I do n't want to do is convert St Mary 's Works into a lot of little flats . When you do that you lose the space , so we are proposing an easy-in , easy-out incubator for microbusinesses . We want to make this a factory of the mind . " The plans for the factory include a glass roof , which Mr Richards likened to the famous pyramids at the Louvre in Paris . The housing would , he told councillors , be a mix of homes for families , starter homes and homes for people aged 55 who wanted to swap larger homes for city centre living . An artist 's impression of what the new hotel could look like . Pic : Architekton Other homes would combine offices and living space for people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would have a concierge service . But , in response to councillors who questioned whether some people would be priced out of living in the area , Mr Richards said they were looking into ways to provide housing for key workers . On plans to demolish St Mary 's House and build a hotel in its place , Mr Richards said a " landmark " building was needed at that " gateway " to the development . He said : " Norwich has a lot of Holiday Inn type hotels , but it does n't have a warehouse aesthetic type hotel and I think Norwich could support that . It could be somewhere where people visiting those living in the quarter come to stay and would be a fitting landmark building . " Next to the hotel would be a 150-space multi-storey car park , complete with automated ' stackers ' - mechanised platforms which park cars . Mr Richards said the aim was to make the development as car free as possible and people living there might have to pay an annual fee for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ visited by Prince Charles . The proposed redevelopment is part of a project from the Prince 's Foundation for Building Community , which he founded 25 years ago . Judith Lubbock , Liberal Democrat councillor for Eaton and a member of the planning committee , said it was a " very interesting and exciting " proposal . If permission is granted , the scheme would be completed in phases , which could take up to four years . Hello Dear , I know your St very well , I recommend that you look onto the Web-Site George Plunkett.co.uk and get a History of old St Martins Lane also have a look on the Web-Site " Britain from above " and key in " Sexton , Son and Everard " you 'll see detailed Ariel photos of your back yard . Now , back to your point , everyone must just campaign for more car parking spaces , perhaps even the construction of carparking under the new houses and Hotel At first like most people I felt very positive about the proposal . It is a well @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ basic truth is that this will be a high density development not in keeping with the Norwich conservation plans . Are people aware that at its heart it has two massive blocks of flats of 9 and 8 storeys . On reflection I feel most people would not want to throw away this opportunity to create something special for the financial benefit of the developers . Do not be hoodwinked by hype . what this article fails to report correctly is that the proposed plan for this site is actually 450 houses all with no parking spaces allocated and not 200. what it also fails to mention is that the road system is proposed to be changed so that it is a one way system and so adding to the already over congested area . with the best will in the world 450 houses are not going to be sold with residents who do n't have a car , so that means they 'll be parking all over the streets . we live on st. martins lane , one of 3 houses here and the other 2 are grade @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a dead end and exclusive which was the reason we bought the property , now it will be part of the one way system with everyone from the hotel using the route . the initial plans in january mentioned nothing about a hotel nor a multi storey car park . also the proposed flats are our side and so will block out all of the light to our neighbours . we agree the lovely mock ups look very nice , but these are just plans and guarantee it will look nothing like this when reality and costs kick in. immediatley opposite us the buildings are derelict due to aspestos , on top of the ground here is really soft and so everything will need to be built on massive pilings , i fail to see how affordable housing will come into effect here , but then that is a good thing from our view ! ! if the council would like to offer us 34 million for our property we 'll happily go quietly ! @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase 'receiving Cookies', but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Therefore, it does not qualify as an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The ? 11m regeneration of a once-blighted Hawick housing estate is moving on apace as 27 tenants received keys to their new homes this week .

THE Internet of Things ( IoT ) is set to revolutionise our lives , but one of its foremost proponents has warned that it could easily become a nightmare unless steps are taken to make sure that people 's personal data is properly secured . THE Internet of Things ( IoT ) is set to revolutionise our lives , but one of its foremost proponents has warned that it could easily become a nightmare unless steps are taken to make sure that people 's personal data is properly secured . Simon Montford , an industry specialist who is the brain behind Web3//IOT , which helps tech entrepreneurs , was speaking at the inaugural digital festival Techaus , in Glasgow , about how the IoT and devices that make our world more " connected " could make our lives easier .

However , he added that data security was a primary concern as technology develops . Robust systems would have to be put in place to protect the massive amount of personal data smart devices harvest . " Products like fitness trackers that also monitor your sleep , temperature , heart rate and so on are almost medical-grade devices and they process an incredible amount of very personal data , " he said . " Where is that going to be stored ? If you take the ageing population example , with such devices being in people 's personal space 24/7 , the robot carer could remind someone living on their own when to take their medicine . Or it could alert a carer if the person has a fall . " But it could get to a point where people feel they 're being spied on and if their data is exploited then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Montford said the General Data Protection Regulations that were passed by the European Parliament this year proposed fines of tens of billions of euros for companies found to have breached them . It was better than penalties that were " a slap on the wrist " , but he said people could do more to avoid their data landing in the wrong hands by taking back control . " Last month 's cyberattack that shut down a huge part of the internet in America is believed to have used millions upon millions of smart devices whose processing power combined to make a giant supercomputer to mount the attack . " Many of these machines were accessed because their default password had n't been changed from when they were installed . " Manufacturers should be held responsible for making sure that their devices are shipped with a password that has to be set by the user -- it has to be changed before they can use it so they are not as easy to hijack . " Techaus was organised by Mark Muir , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , chief creative officer and co-founder of the digital agency Equator . JJ said they had developed good connections with colleges and other institutions , and it was hoped the event would become a major event on Scotland 's digital calendar . He said : " The businesses and sectors we are in are innovating so fast the structure of educational modules is unable to keep up , so we 've been working with colleges to try to build entrepreneurship programmes and the like . " Our goal is to create a network so that by the time the students ' main learning part is finished , they 've already built up a network to move more easily into the world of work . " |

For many years we are constantly told we must recycle to reduce waste with the government setting targets and local authorities investing huge amounts in the equipment to collect waste and local entrepreneurial firms like the Mountain family setting up recycling centres to turn waste into products for sale and reuse . The experts say that only 14 per cent of plastic packaging is recycled and maybe eight milion tonnes per year end up in the oceans of the world with severe consequences for fish and other wild life . Much packaging from supermarkets , for example , can be recycled but much can not . The crisp packets declare that they are not " currently recyclable " as if there is moment coming soon when they will be . But this moment never comes and it is unclear whether the food manufacturers will ever develop a recyclable crisp packet . It is unclear whether the government is asking them or telling them to do so .

We live in a world of ever advancing technology and surely it must be possible to invent a crisp packet that can go in our grey bins and which does not make crisps too expensive ? There seems to be more food products whose packaging is not currently recyclable than that which is but are our supermarkets accepting the status quo because they simply do n't care ? Surely they should be putting pressure on their suppliers to effect change , the kind of change which hits the headlines only when Marmite is threatened with a 10% price rise . So much food packaging ends up in our streets and roads thrown down by those who seem not to care about litter or the state of our town and the wider area .

You simply make sure they are clean and then take them back to the supermarket and hand them in via a " hole in the wall " weighing machine which prints out a credit note which you can deduct at the checkout from your next shopping bill . When we lived in Denmark in the 1990 's there were few discarded bottles about as they got picked up by eagle eyed savers as they had a value . So there was less litter and the supermarkets returned the bottles and cans via a recycling system . The cost of the system is covered by a tax on packaging materials .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves the verb 'get' with an NP object 'any enjoyment' and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of being as famous as you were in the 80s' does not describe an event where the NP object is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

an interview with Sisters Of Mercy singer Andrew Eldritch : he loves Swedish pop , dodgy Japanese movies and cricket on the radio . But do n't mention World Goth Day ...
This feature first appeared in the 2012 special , The Cure & The Story Of The Alternative 80s . Andrew Eldritch has always been an enigma . As the leader of The Sisters Of Mercy , he cultivated a powerful mystique and created some of the greatest and most influential rock music of the 1980s . But as he says now , " I never felt I was destined to be a rock'n'roll star . " Born Andrew William Harvey Taylor in the small town of Ely in Cambridgeshire on May 15 , 1959 , Eldritch formed The Sisters Of Mercy in Leeds in 1980 and has remained the group 's sole constant and figurehead ever since . With the albums First And Last And Always ( 1985 ) and Floodland ( 1987 ) , the Sisters became known as the definitive goth rock band -- a term that Eldritch loathes . But in the early 90s , when he believed that his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The Sisters Of Mercy were " on strike " against their record company . And with the maverick sensibility that has informed his entire career , he simply stopped making records . In 2012 , the Sisters remain active as a touring band , but Eldritch has steadfastly refused to release any of the new music he has written and recorded in recent years . Now , as always , Andrew Eldritch does as he pleases , and nothing else . What is the current status of The Sisters Of Mercy ? Pretty good . We 're addressing a slight technical problem , inasmuch as the person who manned our bass and drum section for the past few years has moved on . Yes , that big part of equipment is currently looking for a new attendant -- a nurse to the Doktor . Otherwise , we 're good . We rock like a motherfucker . Which is nice . It 's been 22 years since the last Sisters album , VisionThing . Are you any closer to releasing a new album ? We record @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ never get around to finishing them , so I do n't think a new album is uppermost in our thoughts . Making an album requires a lot of time and nervous energy and a little bit of money . And I 'm not sure my lads want to be tied up for that long doing that -- with no prospect of recompense at the end of it . We 're one of the few bands that can sell concert tickets without having to put out an album , so the usual motivation does n't apply . With the music industry imploding , it 's hard to see why putting out an album would make much sense . And I do n't have the existential need to do so . Meaning what ? I do n't make music for you . I make it for me . But if you 're creating new music , do n't you want it to be heard ? At concerts we always play new songs , and not always the same ones . But I think there 's a big difference @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , in my unkinder moments , I might regard as simply preening . I 'm not much of an extrovert . Surely the Sisters fans that come to the gigs and hear the new songs must tell you they 'd love to hear a new album , though ? It sounds like work , and I do n't like work . Work is stuff you do because people pay you to do it -- stuff you would n't do otherwise . I 'm perfectly happy to make music . I 'm not nearly as enamoured with the whole releasing process , having done it a few times . It was dismal . When did you last write a new song ? The last time I decided definitively that a song was finished and untouchable was 2010 . I 've written a lot since then , but I 'm still tinkering with them . I like to tinker . With computers , information is much more fluid now . A file is infinitely modifiable . So it 's a bit hard to decide when something 's finished @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with tinkering , which I find a very fulfilling process in itself . So you 're happy just to be tinkering away , cut off from the world ? Look , I love my cats but I do n't take them for walkies so that other people can look at them . Personally , if I were George Lucas I would n't have released the last three Star Wars films . And the world would have thanked me for not showing them to anybody . I 'm not suggesting my work is in that league of awfulness , but you get my point . There 's a difference between being a musician and being a pop star . I think that answers your question about how I would define creativity . Is your life busy ? Yes it is ; watching a lot of dodgy Japanese films , playing with the cats , watching the cricket . I live a fairly privileged life in that I made my money before the music industry imploded . So I can afford to do that . The Sisters Of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a yearly salary as a consultant to the trust . I suppose The Rolling Stones might also be a trust . And Pink Floyd . If you needed the money , would there have been another Sisters Of Mercy album by now ? Yes . Although in the current climate , I do n't think that would have made much difference financially . You ca n't make money putting out records . But the band makes good money touring ? It does . And I like being in a band . The pressure is shared . I think everybody should want to be a part of something bigger than themselves . Where do you live now ? I 've got a place by the sea , in Europe . But I ca n't tell you where . I 'm still very European in my outlook . I 'm lucky that I 'm very good at languages . So I can move around with impunity . Did n't you study languages at Oxford University ? Before I dropped out . I wanted to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ let me , so I moved universities to Leeds . At that time there were only six universities in the country that taught Chinese . That 's how long before the Chinese boom it was . What are your earliest memories of music as a child ? When I was three , my parents had a 45rpm single of My BoyLollipop by Millie . My family did n't have many records , so I soon became terminally annoyed by that song . I do n't hear much of that record reflected in my current oeuvre , so maybe the whole of my life has been a reaction to My Boy Lollipop . As a schoolboy in the early 1970s , what music did you love ? As in every school , there was a division between those who liked The Beatles and those who liked The Rolling Stones , and those who liked Black Sabbath and those who liked Pink Floyd 's Ummagumma . Were you on the Stones/Ummagumma side ? I was . I should have been on the Stones/Black Sabbath side , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of drippiness . I love the Floyd , but not that one . And why the Stones over The Beatles ? I think rock'n'roll should scare your mother . What other music was influential for you ? Glam , glam and more glam . Gary Glitter , Slade , T. Rex . All the way down to Mud . Tiger Feet is pretty good . Before you formed The Sisters Of Mercy , you were a drummer in a couple of Leeds punk bands . Just two . They did n't even have names , and we certainly did n't play in public . When did you first start using the name Eldritch ? When I started performing . I had to change my name because of the dude in Duran Duran called Andrew Taylor . The word ' eldritch ' is defined as strange and otherworldly . Is that why you chose it ? I do n't think I mulled it over much at the time . People say its ' a reference to Lovecraft and his ilk , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and his ilk . From the start , did you have a master plan for the The Sisters Of Mercy ? We just wanted to get played on the radio -- once . The Holy Grail was to get on the John Peel show . I 'm a thug , musically -- self-taught . And at first we were awful , but being awful helps you to be different . You were idiot savants ? Oh no . That implies a level of craft that we definitely did not display . The Sisters ' debut album , First And Last And Always , is regarded as a classic of the era -- how do you feel about it now ? I like some of the songs on the first album . I 'm just not keen on the production or the style of playing or my singing -- particularly my singing . You wrote all of the lyrics for that album , but very little of the music . Why ? It made sense at the time . If someone has written @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sing to it . Wayne Hussey played guitar on that album . How important was his role in shaping the Sisters ' sound ? He was only in the band for a year . We 've been going for 30 years . Draw your own conclusions from that . But he wrote a lot of the band 's key early songs , such as Black Planet and Walk Away . It must have been a big loss to the Sisters when he quit to form The Mission ? Wayne wanted to front his own band . I do n't blame anybody for wanting that . And at the time it seemed like a good idea on both sides . In the 80s , which bands did you feel an affinity with ? We thought we belonged to a bloodline that stretched back through glam to the Stones to Gene Vincent . So in interviews we 'd be more likely to mention the Stones than The Psychedelic Furs . I think in our early interviews we name-checked the same people we 'd name-check now : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . But the only record I could say has had a direct influence on me -- ever -- is The Psychomodo by Cockney Rebel released in 1974 . I love the way the language gets twisted in that . Is that the essence of your own lyrics -- twisting the language ? Well , it seems to me that every time I refer to anything vaguely spiritual , I 'm actually meaning something down and dirty . And every time I refer to something down and dirty , I 'm usually getting a bit highfalutin . For the secondSisters Of Mercy album Floodland , you worked with Jim Steinman -- writer of Meat Loaf 's Bat Out Of Hell -- on two songs , This Corrosion and Dominion . People thought that with the second album we were completely Steinman-ised , but it 's untrue . This Corrosion is ridiculous . It 's supposed to be ridiculous . It 's a song about ridiculousness . So I called Steinman and explained that we needed something that sounded like a disco party run by the Borgias . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ actually like Bat Out Of Hell ? I 've never listened to it . I know the song Bat Out Of Hell . It 's OK . But it 's not as good as Golden Earring 's Radar Love , is it ? It 's not as good as ( Do n't Fear ) The Reaper by Blue ? yster Cult , or Edge Of Seventeen by Stevie Nicks , or Aerosmith 's Dream On . No . But Jim is very good at getting budgets for stuff that requires big budgets . And he 's very good at organising choirs -- all the stuff that constitutes icing on the cake . I did n't realise that he paid no attention whatsoever to the cake until I worked with him . But the icing was always very shiny . How did you relate to him on a personal level ? I loved the guy . He 's very articulate and very funny . Floodland represented a huge leap from your first album in terms of scale . Yes . I had a very clear @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ flat in Hamburg . I can see albums rather than hear them . It 's a very coherent record and that 's what gives it a lot of its power . At this stage , you brought Patricia Morrison into the Sisters . I wanted somebody to play the bass and I 'd seen her with The Gun Club . I was a big fan of that band . But is it true that she did n't play on Floodland ? That is true . I intended her to , but she did n't make the cut . She was still a key part of the band 's visual identity in this period -- on the album cover and in the videos . I did n't have a band so I could n't go on tour . So I did a year of promo for the album , and it was nice to have somebody to answer half the questions and look pretty . Not that I did n't look pretty in those days ... The video for Dominion -- shot in a desert location @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ very RaidersOf The Lost Ark ... " Yes . And This Corrosion ended up being a poor man 's BladeRunner . I hated making videos . They 're a waste of money . I regarded them as so tangential . But it 's what the record companies swore blind they needed to sell records . So I just had fun with them . ' Dear Record Company , we 've decided that the next video , for no reason whatsoever , absolutely has to be made in Bombay . ' So , off we go to Bombay . That was Lucretia My Reflection . I 'd never been to India and I wanted somebody else to front the money . After Floodland came Vision Thing , which may yet prove to be the final Sisters Of Mercy album , unless you have a change of heart . I 'm very fond of that album . I know it 's a bit 2D , but I wanted to make a 2D rock record . I wanted something that chuntered happily along , and that was very flatly in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ murky depths , and that 's fine , but I wanted much less of the murk on Vision Thing . There 's not even any reverb on the voice -- it 's just me double-tracking myself . At the time everybody said , ' Oh , you 're just trying to be Def Leppard -- and you 're not doing it very well . ' To be honest , Def Leppard sound better . So that did n't work . Surely you were n't really trying to sound like Def Leppard , though ? There 's one song where we were -- Under The Gun , which was a brilliant power ballad . But by and large , we were n't . And we lost an awful lot of airplay because that record was so guitar-heavy . Andreas Bruhn played guitar on that record , and he 's the only guitarist who 's ever come into the band thinking , ' I 'm going to play Classic Rock -- with a big C and a big R. ' He should be in the Eagles , really . Maybe @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ entered into a lengthy dispute with your record label , Time Warner , that effectively ended your recording career . Everybody said , ' You ca n't survive as a band if you do n't put out albums -- you 've got to keep your record company . ' Twenty years later , I 'm not so sure . Your contract with Time Warner was terminated after you recorded an album of electronic music in 1997 under the name SSV -- an album that was never released and was widely viewed as an act of sabotage . Is was rumoured that the full name of that project was SSV -- NSMABAAOTWMODAACOTIATW -- an acronym for Screw Shareholder Value -- Not So Much A Band As Another Opportunity To Waste Money On Drugs And Ammunition Courtesy Of The Idiots At Time Warner . Is that true ? I could n't possibly comment . But I 've yet to hear a better explanation . I own one Time Warner share , so I 'm still entitled to go to their AGM and ask them what the fuck they 've @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the music industry , SSV is reminiscent of the famous 1994 stunt by the K Foundation , when they claimed to have burned a million pounds . Or so they say . But if it were me , I would n't have felt the need to tell anybody about it . I would just have had a lovely private bonfire . And maybe there have been times in my career where , effectively , I 've done just that . In the 90s , you wrote for Germany 's Rolling Stone magazine , interviewing David Bowie and Leonard Cohen . Are they heroes of yours ? Very much so . Interviewing Leonard Cohen was a brilliant experience . I love being outclassed by people who have so much class . But there are a lot of people I admire . Stevie Nicks , Neil Young , Lee Hazelwood . I like a couple of Simon & Garfunkel tracks ... What about ABBA ? Back in the 80s , the Sisters famously did a live version of ABBA 's Gim me ! Gim me ! Gim me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just seemed like a nice fun party song to trash . And we murdered it . It 's a very intricate song and we played it badly . The Sisters have a tradition of doing ' give me back my man ' songs . One of the things I always fought for was my right to be a gay icon . And I 've utterly failed , but it still does n't stop me trying . These days you can make an extraordinarily good living out of it . But when I was a kid it was a really big deal , and I just felt really sorry for all the people I knew who were obviously gay . Are you embarrassed by any of the music you 've made over the years ? Oh yeah -- half of it . But we chose from the very beginning to grow up in public . We always tried our best to sound like us rather than anybody else . And sometimes that makes for dodgy sounding records . Them 's the breaks . Have you heard the Sisters @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ directly . I was at a System Of A Down concert recently in Australia . I was watching from the side of the stage , and suddenly they launched into one of our songs -- they did half of Marian -- as a way of saying hello to me . I thought that was nice . I ca n't hear our influence in their music , but stuff like that happens , whether it 's Guns N ' Roses wearing our T-shirts or Metallica standing up and fighting your corner for you . How much contact do you have with fans ? Online -- none whatsoever . At gigs , it depends if I 'm in a good mood or not . If I am and I 've got time , I might hang out in the foyer and have a chat , or I 'll go to a local bar afterwards and sit down with people . Did you get any enjoyment out of being as famous as you were in the 80s ? The first time the Sisters were on Top Of The Pops @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The Pops , so that was like an Oscar to me . But we were on that show so often , it got to be a drag . And we always seemed to be on when Shakin ' Stevens was on . We 've been called a lot of things -- usually , something that I heartily disagree with -- but we 've not often been called a pop band , and we were on Top Of The Pops a lot . What is the biggest myth about you ? People think that I live in a Bavarian castle surrounded by bats . But no : I 'm surrounded by a great many computer screens and I like to watch suspect Japanese films and listen to cricket all day . Test MatchSpecial is so good . With that in mind , how on Earth did you ever become a rock star , Andrew ? I have a theory that anybody who wants to be in a rock band probably should n't be allowed to be in one . And anybody who 's really good at being @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ But I think my terror manifests itself in a very entertaining way . And that has afforded me a very comfortable life when I 'm not on stage , so I can live with the compromise . I made the pact . |

for refurbishment of Oakham Library
Plans have gone on display at Oakham Library showing how it will benefit from an extensive programme of work to improve services and facilities at the site . Oakham Library was built in 1972 and is the largest of Rutland 's libraries . The service is incredibly well-used , receiving about 90,000 visits every year , but has changed very little since it first opened . Earlier this year Rutland County Council agreed to invest up to ? 280,000 in Oakham Library to refurbish facilities and ensure it can continue to serve residents over the next 25 years . This will include work to the lighting , flooring , ceiling and electrics , as well as repairs to the roofing outside . The nature of this work means the library will need to close its doors for several months . As a result , Oakham Library services will temporarily move to Rutland County Museum but will return to normal as soon as the refurbishment is complete . Portfolio holder for culture at Rutland County Council Oliver Hemsley ( Con ) , said : " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of all ages and is a real asset to our community . This is reflected in the library 's popularity and is one of the main reasons we are making such a significant investment in the future of the building . " We need to relocate library services to the exhibition space at Rutland County Museum for a short time , while we have builders and contractors on site , but once the work is done people can look forward to returning to a much improved library with better facilities for adults , children and young people . " Oakham Library will be closed to members of the public from December 15 as work begins on site . The museum-based library service will open less than a week later on December 21 .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'keep me out of everything', where 'everything' is an NP complement of the complex preposition 'out of', not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

Downing Street of allowing " petty party politics " to get in the way of the national interest , after he was given the cold shoulder over his offer to act as a go-between with US President-elect Donald Trump .
Number 10 dismissed suggestions that the Ukip leader might become the " third person " in the relationship between Mr Trump and Prime Minister Theresa May , insisting that the Government already has " well-established " channels of communication . Donald Trump and Nigel Farage meet upCredit : PA/Nigel Farage Mr Farage scored a huge political coup in becoming the first British politician to meet Mr Trump after his election victory , and said he was ready to play a " constructive " role in fostering close UK relations with the new regime at the White House . But Mrs May 's official spokeswoman pointed out that the Prime Minister has already had a phone conversation with Mr Trump , in which he invited her to visit Washington at the earliest opportunity and voiced his hopes of striking up a relationship comparable to that between Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher . " The president-elect @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , " said the spokeswoman . " I do n't remember there being any third person in that relationship . " In response , Mr Farage told LBC radio : " It just amazes me that those ghastly little apparatchiks that work in Downing Street put out statements like this . It just goes to show they are not really interested in the country or the national interest , they are more concerned about petty party politics and trying to keep me out of everything . " If you think of America in terms of a business and think of them as a client we want to do business with . What would you do ? You would use the person who has the connections . Nobody in this administration in the UK has any connections with the Trump team at all , and yet they are prepared on behalf of the country to cut off their noses to spite their faces . " Mr Farage , who spent around an hour with the president-elect in his Trump Tower home in New York , said he had @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " in the politician 's team and did not expect to meet Mr Trump himself . Mrs May herself last year described his remarks on Muslims as " divisive , unhelpful and wrong " , while Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson said they made him " unfit " to be president . Today , when asked about Mr Trump 's victory , Boris Johnson said : " I think there is a lot to be positive about and it is very important not to prejudge the president-elect or his administration . " It 's only a few days since the election has taken place . I think we all need to wait and see what they come up with . But I think we should regard it as a moment for opportunity . " Donald Trump is a dealmaker and I think that could be a good thing for Britain , but it could also be a good thing for Europe and that I think is what we need to focus on today . " Conservative former defence minister Sir Gerald Howarth said it was " not sensible " to ignore Nigel Farage , given his good relationship with Donald Trump . " We live in very unconventional times politically at the moment and we need to think out of the box , " he told BBC Radio 4 's World At One . " If Nigel Farage is well-connected with Donald Trump - as it would appear that he is - then we should certainly be talking to him . I am not suggesting a formal role for him but I certainly do think it is worth talking to him . " Nigel Farage had offered his services to Theresa May in his Telegraph column this morning . " If @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the British Government could do the same thing . I would be very happy to provide introductions and to start the necessary process of mending fences . And I would not want anything in return . I hope in our national interest that some sense prevails on this . " Number 10 have sharply dismissed suggestions that Nigel Farage could help to broker a relationship between Theresa May and Donald Trump . Mrs May 's official spokeswoman said the Government already has " well-established " channels of communication with Mr Trump 's team . Donald Trump and Nigel Farage meet upCredit : PA/Nigel Farage Earlier , Sir Malcolm Rifkind , a former foreign secretary , suggested that Theresa May could act like Margaret Thatcher in forming a relationship with Mr Trump in a similar fashion to the bond between Lady Thatcher and Ronald Reagan . But a No 10 spokesman said this morning : " The president-elect talked about enjoying the same relationship as Thatcher and Reagan . I do n't recall there being any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ also evident this morning that No 10 is pushing behind the scenes to see Mr Trump before his January 20 inauguration , rather than waiting until after the event . A " hard Brexit " will cost UK companies an extra ? 1.2 billion a year , it has been estimated . The Open Britain group , which is campaigning for Britain to keep the closest possible ties with Brussels , said that would be the cost of UK withdrawal from the EU 's free trade agreements with some 50 countries . Labour former Cabinet minister Lord Mandelson said : " A hard Brexit could lead to a ? 1.2 billion bombshell for British businesses . Lord Mandelson during the EU referendum campaignCredit : Getty Images " The billion-pound bill for losing access to trade deals with over 50 countries would be footed by businesses and passed on to consumers with higher prices in the shops . " Leave campaigners talk about all the free trade deals we can sign outside @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we already have . The EU is a leader in global free trade and we should seek to preserve its benefits , as far as is possible . " The best way to keep these deals in place would be to negotiate for membership of the Single Market and the Customs Union . Doing so would be a big boost for British importers and exporters . " Theresa May should seek to emulate Margaret Thatcher and develop a close relationship with the incoming US president , a former foreign secretary has said . Sir Malcolm Rifkind said the Prime Minister should follow the example of the first female British prime minister , who struck up a close alliance with Ronald Reagan . He said Mrs May should seek to persuade the US president-elect of the importance of Nato following Mr Trump 's criticism of the transatlantic defence alliance . " I think Theresa May has a very important opportunity . She has already spoken to the president , she has been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ office and that 's excellent , " senior Tory Sir Malcolm told BBC Radio 4 's Today programme . Sir Malcolm RifkindCredit : Telegraph " The immediate requirement , in a sense - and I do n't want to exaggerate this - but it is to try and do with Mr Trump what Margaret Thatcher did with Ronald Reagan . " Margaret Thatcher was able to persuade Reagan as to the need to have dialogue with Mr ( Mikhail ) Gorbachev and because she was the Iron Lady he listened to her in a way that he would n't have listened to anyone else . " The issues are different at the moment . The issues at the moment are Mr Trump 's rather dismissive comments about Nato . " I think Mrs May , as British Prime Minister , as a leading member of the Nato alliance - the most important military power after the United States - is in a unique position to actually explain and discuss with Mr Trump why the commitment to come to the defence of all , particularly in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ crucially important . " Sir Malcolm also dismissed the idea of interim Ukip leader Nigel Farage being used as a go-between with Washington because of his closeness to the US president-elect . " We do n't actually need him , " he said . " Mrs May has already established a relationship with the president-elect , she has already been invited to meet him . " Our embassy is , I am sure , at this very moment in close contact with senior members of the likely incoming administration . " Donald Trump 's shock victory shows that the Government must deal once and for all with the " overlooked " communities that have been transformed irrevocably by immigration without the " permission " of British voters , Theresa May will say . In her first significant assessment of Mr Trump 's election , the Prime Minister will say that his victory shows the need for a " new approach to managing the forces of globalisation " that does not ignore the working classes . Speaking at the Guildhall in London this evening @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and say that it -- and the Brexit vote in Britain -- show that " change is in the air " . Theresa MayCredit : AFP/Getty Images She will warn that the desire to promote globalisation has led to voters on low incomes being " overlooked " . And she will warn that immigration must be tackled in the wake of the Brexit vote to show communities across the country that politicians are willing to " respond " to their concerns .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'trying to keep me out of everything' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate following 'out of'; instead, 'everything' is a noun phrase, not a verb phrase in the -ing form. Additionally, there is no clear movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the construction.

Downing Street of allowing " petty party politics " to get in the way of the national interest , after he was given the cold shoulder over his offer to act as a go-between with US President-elect Donald Trump .
Number 10 dismissed suggestions that the Ukip leader might become the " third person " in the relationship between Mr Trump and Prime Minister Theresa May , insisting that the Government already has " well-established " channels of communication . Donald Trump and Nigel Farage meet upCredit : PA/Nigel Farage Mr Farage scored a huge political coup in becoming the first British politician to meet Mr Trump after his election victory , and said he was ready to play a " constructive " role in fostering close UK relations with the new regime at the White House . But Mrs May 's official spokeswoman pointed out that the Prime Minister has already had a phone conversation with Mr Trump , in which he invited her to visit Washington at the earliest opportunity and voiced his hopes of striking up a relationship comparable to that between Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher . " The president-elect @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , " said the spokeswoman . " I do n't remember there being any third person in that relationship . " In response , Mr Farage told LBC radio : " It just amazes me that those ghastly little apparatchiks that work in Downing Street put out statements like this . It just goes to show they are not really interested in the country or the national interest , they are more concerned about petty party politics and trying to keep me out of everything . " If you think of America in terms of a business and think of them as a client we want to do business with . What would you do ? You would use the person who has the connections . Nobody in this administration in the UK has any connections with the Trump team at all , and yet they are prepared on behalf of the country to cut off their noses to spite their faces . " Mr Farage , who spent around an hour with the president-elect in his Trump Tower home in New York , said he had @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " in the politician 's team and did not expect to meet Mr Trump himself . Mrs May herself last year described his remarks on Muslims as " divisive , unhelpful and wrong " , while Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson said they made him " unfit " to be president . Today , when asked about Mr Trump 's victory , Boris Johnson said : " I think there is a lot to be positive about and it is very important not to prejudge the president-elect or his administration . " It 's only a few days since the election has taken place . I think we all need to wait and see what they come up with . But I think we should regard it as a moment for opportunity . " Donald Trump is a dealmaker and I think that could be a good thing for Britain , but it could also be a good thing for Europe and that I think is what we need to focus on today . " Conservative former defence minister Sir Gerald Howarth said it was " not sensible " to ignore Nigel Farage , given his good relationship with Donald Trump . " We live in very unconventional times politically at the moment and we need to think out of the box , " he told BBC Radio 4 's World At One . " If Nigel Farage is well-connected with Donald Trump - as it would appear that he is - then we should certainly be talking to him . I am not suggesting a formal role for him but I certainly do think it is worth talking to him . " Nigel Farage had offered his services to Theresa May in his Telegraph column this morning . " If @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the British Government could do the same thing . I would be very happy to provide introductions and to start the necessary process of mending fences . And I would not want anything in return . I hope in our national interest that some sense prevails on this . " Number 10 have sharply dismissed suggestions that Nigel Farage could help to broker a relationship between Theresa May and Donald Trump . Mrs May 's official spokeswoman said the Government already has " well-established " channels of communication with Mr Trump 's team . Donald Trump and Nigel Farage meet upCredit : PA/Nigel Farage Earlier , Sir Malcolm Rifkind , a former foreign secretary , suggested that Theresa May could act like Margaret Thatcher in forming a relationship with Mr Trump in a similar fashion to the bond between Lady Thatcher and Ronald Reagan . But a No 10 spokesman said this morning : " The president-elect talked about enjoying the same relationship as Thatcher and Reagan . I do n't recall there being any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ also evident this morning that No 10 is pushing behind the scenes to see Mr Trump before his January 20 inauguration , rather than waiting until after the event . A " hard Brexit " will cost UK companies an extra ? 1.2 billion a year , it has been estimated . The Open Britain group , which is campaigning for Britain to keep the closest possible ties with Brussels , said that would be the cost of UK withdrawal from the EU 's free trade agreements with some 50 countries . Labour former Cabinet minister Lord Mandelson said : " A hard Brexit could lead to a ? 1.2 billion bombshell for British businesses . Lord Mandelson during the EU referendum campaignCredit : Getty Images " The billion-pound bill for losing access to trade deals with over 50 countries would be footed by businesses and passed on to consumers with higher prices in the shops . " Leave campaigners talk about all the free trade deals we can sign outside @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we already have . The EU is a leader in global free trade and we should seek to preserve its benefits , as far as is possible . " The best way to keep these deals in place would be to negotiate for membership of the Single Market and the Customs Union . Doing so would be a big boost for British importers and exporters . " Theresa May should seek to emulate Margaret Thatcher and develop a close relationship with the incoming US president , a former foreign secretary has said . Sir Malcolm Rifkind said the Prime Minister should follow the example of the first female British prime minister , who struck up a close alliance with Ronald Reagan . He said Mrs May should seek to persuade the US president-elect of the importance of Nato following Mr Trump 's criticism of the transatlantic defence alliance . " I think Theresa May has a very important opportunity . She has already spoken to the president , she has been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ office and that 's excellent , " senior Tory Sir Malcolm told BBC Radio 4 's Today programme . Sir Malcolm RifkindCredit : Telegraph " The immediate requirement , in a sense - and I do n't want to exaggerate this - but it is to try and do with Mr Trump what Margaret Thatcher did with Ronald Reagan . " Margaret Thatcher was able to persuade Reagan as to the need to have dialogue with Mr ( Mikhail ) Gorbachev and because she was the Iron Lady he listened to her in a way that he would n't have listened to anyone else . " The issues are different at the moment . The issues at the moment are Mr Trump 's rather dismissive comments about Nato . " I think Mrs May , as British Prime Minister , as a leading member of the Nato alliance - the most important military power after the United States - is in a unique position to actually explain and discuss with Mr Trump why the commitment to come to the defence of all , particularly in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ crucially important . " Sir Malcolm also dismissed the idea of interim Ukip leader Nigel Farage being used as a go-between with Washington because of his closeness to the US president-elect . " We do n't actually need him , " he said . " Mrs May has already established a relationship with the president-elect , she has already been invited to meet him . " Our embassy is , I am sure , at this very moment in close contact with senior members of the likely incoming administration . " Donald Trump 's shock victory shows that the Government must deal once and for all with the " overlooked " communities that have been transformed irrevocably by immigration without the " permission " of British voters , Theresa May will say . In her first significant assessment of Mr Trump 's election , the Prime Minister will say that his victory shows the need for a " new approach to managing the forces of globalisation " that does not ignore the working classes . Speaking at the Guildhall in London this evening @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and say that it -- and the Brexit vote in Britain -- show that " change is in the air " . Theresa MayCredit : AFP/Getty Images She will warn that the desire to promote globalisation has led to voters on low incomes being " overlooked " . And she will warn that immigration must be tackled in the wake of the Brexit vote to show communities across the country that politicians are willing to " respond " to their concerns . The Prime Minister will say : " We ca n't deny -- as I know you recognise -- that there have been downsides to globalisation in recent years , and that -- in our zeal and enthusiasm to promote this agenda as the answer to all our ills -- we have on occasion overlooked the impact on those closer to home who see these forces in a different light .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'Helen' is the NP subject, 'priced' is the V1, 'she' is the NP object, and 'being able to buy the other' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, as it implies that Helen was prevented from being able to buy the other share due to being priced out. The verb 'priced' fits into the category of exerting force or pressure metaphorically. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

shared ownership schemes in areas where many people are priced out of the housing market . But what 's it really like ?
Readers report mixed feelings about shared ownership : often it gave them much cheaper accommodation costs , but the fluctuation in rent and service charges were a particular bugbear , and issues that are avoided when buying outright . For Jessica , the experience has been broadly positive . " I bought a shared ownership flat in Hackney three years ago and love it , " she says . " It was that or continuing to rent a room in a flat share . For a monthly payment that 's affordable I get a whole flat to myself -- something I could never afford to do ( or justify even if I could ) if renting privately . I was n't in a position to get help from my parents or buy with a partner so outright ownership was completely out of the question . " However , in contrast with owning outright , payments of rent and other charges can fluctuate and increase . " The only thing that worries me is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over time and the service charge is pretty unregulated , " she says . Read more Jessica does n't have any worries about reselling - something some do worry about - because the property is in London , where there is huge demand . " My housing association has an interesting-looking scheme to allow people to move up to a bigger property , although the capital limits means that I 'd have to move to a cheaper area if I wanted to do that . " Shared ownership has been sold as a path to outright ownership for many people hit by exorbitant price rises in London and the south-east , but for some tenant/owners , price rises have left them concerned over the affordability of their homes . Helen , who is in her mid-50s , bought a 50% share of a flat in a block in Stoke Newington , London in 2001 and says that she was " almost immediately " priced out of being able to buy the other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could n't keep going up like this . It would be funny now if it was n't for the fact I am worried we will lose this place if the government tries to change the rules about market rents . " Helen pays ? 500 a month in rent , which she said is " nothing " compared with the prices landlords charge for private flats in the block . " The market rent is around ? 400-500 a week , which would be impossible to afford . I am really concerned about the future . " She is also concerned about patchy relations with the housing association . " The biggest pain is they never keep the housing officers long enough to understand our needs , and we are always back at square one . For example , when we all first bought , the sales representative promised better and more secure gates , plus bike racks , " Helen says . " These have never materialised and in the end one of the tenants arranged for three racks , which is not sufficient for a 12-block flat @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not claim them and they must be kept free for everyone to use . It took 12 years for this to even happen . " Read more James bought his flat in a particularly fraught moment , but avoided far more costs in the long term through shared ownership . " Our mortgage application went in via the housing association 's adviser on the day that the financial crash happened , " he explains . " Our mortgage provider pulled the 0% deposit mortgage we had applied for off the market , necessitating an actual taxi dash back to the City to meet the adviser and re-sign the paperwork as if we 'd actually applied the day before -- or we 'd have lost the mortgage . Other than that , the process was very smooth and because we were buying a new build there was no chain , which made things easier .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks an NP object and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'comes out of' in a different context, describing a relationship between professional and personal activities without the causative semantics required by the construction.

Like many things ... her life , Billie Piper embraced her triumph at Sunday night 's Evening Standard Theatre Awards wholeheartedly . " It feels GREAT , " laughs the 34-year-old , handling the statuette for the Natasha Richardson Award for Best Actress , which she won for her heartrending performance as Yerma at the Young Vic , in a production that turned Lorca 's barren Spanish villager into a modern London woman desperate for a child . The applause from the starry crowd at the Old Vic , at an evening co-hosted by Sir Elton John and Evening Standard owner Evgeny Lebedev , was as heartfelt and unanimous as the reviews lauding her performance . Piper was " devastatingly good , " wrote the Standard 's Henry Hitchings . For the Times , her " full-blooded " performance marked the former teen pop star 's " transition into a major dramatic artist " . After the opening night a veteran producer and I , shaken and open-mouthed , agreed that we had seen the performance of the year . " Wow . Just wow , " said the producer . Piper was nominated for the same award in 2013 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ great friend and collaborator Lucy Prebble , so her win this year is all the sweeter . " It feels like it comes at a good time and it 's such a fancy night , " she says . " It 's just nice , after the end of a run , to then go and drink nice cocktails and dress well and meet loads of wonderful people and grab an award . These little moments in life are gone in a flash , and it 's exciting that you experience them once in your life . " It also provides validation at the end of a difficult year . Piper was divorced in May from Laurence Fox , the scion of the acting dynasty , after nine years of marriage . When they first separated in March they stated that no other party was involved and that they would continue to co-parent their sons Winston , eight , and Eugene , four . This subject is off limits but it must have made Yerma -- and the physically and emotionally exposing last series of Sky 's Penny @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up -- all the more wracking . " I think you are drawn to certain things in certain points in your life , " she concedes . " I 've noticed that I have always found myself doing something professionally that comes out of something personal . You have to connect to things . Maybe you are just in a more emotional place where you can be affected by certain stories . " At curtain calls for Yerma she 's looked ... " ... like shit ? " she interrupts . No , shattered , I say . " I am always wrecked at the end of a show , " she nods . " And I was always in a state of shock at the end of that one .

" I do it because it 's all that 's on offer , really , for an English actress , but it is not something I am really comfortable with . " ( Perou/Camera Press ) Stone assured her he 'd update the play , and on the first day of rehearsals he told the cast about the box , gave Piper four pages of script and asked them to discuss the play 's central issue . The story and performances grew organically , which gave the play its energy . " Now I ca n't imagine working any other way , " says Piper . The story felt timely . " The conversation about fertility is rife among friends and women generally and in the media , " she says . " Or maybe @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's all I hear . But I know loads of people going through it . I have seen what it 's done to people I know , and it 's not as full-blown as Yerma , but it 's pretty f***ing awful . It 's terrible for your relationship and friendships . And having had children myself , knowing what it feels like , the thought of not being able to have that is just traumatic . I know it would make me unbelievably depressed , and angry and so jealous . " Piper had her children young but then she 's done everything young . She left her working-class parents in Swindon at 12 to stay with grandparents and attend the Sylvia Young Theatre School . She became the youngest pop artist to debut at number one with Because We Want To at 15 .

I assumed she 'd made enough from music to relaunch as an actress ( and to not take a penny of Evans 's millions when they split ) . " No . I think I 'm still in debt to certain record companies , " she says . " I did n't earn much compared to the amount I worked . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ filming music videos , came out of her earnings , " plus I was a child , so I spent a lot of it " . Depressed by the punishing workload and fan abuse over her relationship with Richie Neville from boyband Five , she splurged on limos back to Swindon or to friends ' boltholes -- although Evans gave her a ? 110,000 Ferrari after their first date she could n't drive until she was 19 . Evans was pivotal , though : " He is like ' chief encourager ' . If there is something you believe in he will champion you .

It 's where the interesting roles are for women , she says , although they tend to be " mad or unhinged or sad . But I like playing those crazies , or women with stuff going on . And TV is good for women now as well . It 's just film that seems to be ... nothing . " With writers such as Prebble -- with whom she is devising a series -- and Sharon Horgan leading the field , female characters on TV are now " well-rounded and full-bodied , crass and fun and loose " . Still , for TV it 's " very rare that you read a role that does n't involve a sex scene " . She 's only played prostitutes twice -- in Secret Diary and Penny Dreadful -- but " I still get sent hooker scripts once every four months " .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'gets a kick out of seeing them do their thing' involves an NP object 'a kick' and a gerund phrase 'seeing them do their thing', but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the NP object 'a kick' does not function as a causee, and the verb 'gets' does not fit the semantic classes of verbs that typically appear in the V1 slot of the construction.

The former Reds winger helped nurture a high number of local talents in his role as the club 's academy director over the course of almost two decades up until 2007 and insists he even gets a kick out of seeing them do their thing say from the football pitch . Heighway has shared lengthy relationships with the likes of Jamie Carragher , Steven Gerrard , Michael Owen , Steve McManaman and Robbie Fowler , so there is no shortage of pride for the 68-year-old who is back doing some coaching under Alex Inglethorpe at Melwood . " It does give me immense pride when I see what the players who came through here achieved , but I get more pride listening to Carra on TV , or to Steven ( Gerrard ) and Michael ( Owen ) whenever they come here ( to the academy ) , " he told The Telegraph . " We will always have lunch with Steve McManaman and Robbie Fowler . They are all here all the time . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ liked them as footballers , but there was something special about them as people . If there were sitting with us now they would be the sharpest cookies in the room .

" My career has been about helping young people . I was tough with them - incredibly tough with them at times . I could be confrontational with them . Not one of them has held it against me . That 's what makes me proud . That 's my style . It 's how I work . " Not everything can be about technical evaluation . There is more to it .

Date published : Wednesday 16th November 2016 10:17 Former Liverpool defender Mark Lawrenson believes the club will not be able to keep the likes of Philippe Coutinho out of the clutches of Barcelona . However , rather than bemoan the fact , Lawrenson urged fans to enjoy the brilliant football the Brazil international and his team-mates are producing which has turned Jurgen Klopp 's side into genuine title challengers . " The clever thing is to plan for it . Rather than say ' Coutinho might be going , what are we going to do ? ' you have something in place already . " Daniel Sturridge is another player whose future appears up for debate . The England international has yet to score a Premier League goal this season and is no longer first choice up front with Roberto Firmino performing the central attacking role . There have been reports he will seek to leave in January -- which is highly unlikely as injury to Danny Ings has already left Klopp one striker light -- but Lawrenson said the 27-year-old should sit @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for the club to be in , " said the ex-centre-back at a special Men United Arms Q&A event for Prostate UK in Preston . " It 's like Klopp 1 , Sturridge 0 because when Klopp came the questions were about how he was going to get him fit and now he is fit he ca n't get in the side . " But you do n't do anything with him at the moment . You can bring him on and he will score you a goal out of nothing . " You ca n't get players like him , he is different to what Klopp has and he would make one of the top team 's stronger so why would you sell him ? " The only way you get rid of Daniel Sturridge is if you have someone lined up to come in . " It 's not a problem for Klopp -- but it may be for Sturridge . " Lawrenson also dismissed criticism of Liverpool 's inability to keep a clean sheet , with just one in the Premier @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are n't great at the back . Arsenal look okay but I would n't seriously worry about Liverpool defensively , " he said . " They create so many chances in games so what if they concede a couple ? " They are going to win so many of their games playing this way it will just be immaterial . " There are 19 teams in the league who would like to be where Liverpool are . " For me I think it ( the title ) is between them , City and Arsenal -- who are both in Europe -- so it is all in Liverpool 's favour . Enjoy it while it lasts -- that 's the way Klopp is .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The verb 'ducked' does not involve causing someone to move out of or preventing someone from an action, and there is no NP object that functions as a causee in relation to the VP2[-ing] predicate 'elaborating on wild moments and drunken experiences with the Prince'.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'made a career out of attacking' involves a transitive verb 'made' with an NP object 'a career', but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the NP object 'a career' does not function as a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

I think the Lords is in desperate need of reform , starting with a dramatic cull of its swollen membership , but assuming we must work with the system as it currently is then Nigel Farage has surely done more to earn a seat than many of the upper chamber 's ermine-clad pontificators . Leaving aside the matter of whether one agrees with the politics of Farage and Ukip , it must be recognised @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ British history than almost any other politician of his generation . Some Brexiteers are of the view that he was more of a hindrance than a help during the actual referendum campaign , but it can not be denied that without him there would n't have been a vote at all . He also oversaw Ukip 's impressive haul of four million votes at the last election . The LibDems bagged just over half that amount and currently count over 100 peers with just a clutch of MPs . So while you may loathe the idea of Lord Farage , you ought to recognise that the strength of his party 's support combined with the seismic policy change he helped bring about warrants recognition . He may have made a career out of attacking ' unelected elites ' but he would n't be the first person to circumvent hostility to the principle when a title was dangled in front of him . Picture him there , alongside Lords Prescott and Kinnock . City A.M. is committed to raising ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ So this Christmas , we 're backing its fundraising auction and it could be the answer to your Christmas shopping . Golf with Sam Torrance , whisky tasting at Boisdales , art and hotel stays are all up for grabs .

Newsnight presenter Evan Davis opened the evening with a speech in which he floated the idea of making Manchester the capital city .

Triggering a laugh at the Guildhall banquet To the Guildhall on Monday night for the Lord Mayor 's Banquet which featured , in his words , " more sparkle than Strictly " . True , it 's hard to imagine an event featuring more gold . It was also Theresa May 's first speech to the City and it got off to a jovial start when Rev Canon Roger Royle began the grace prayer by saying " we give thanks that we do not have to trigger any Article before enjoying tonight 's meal " .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'I' is the NP subject, 'was relieved' is the V1, 'my mom's threat of punishment' is the NP object, and 'to bow out of rioting' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also fits the prevention interpretation, as the threat of punishment prevents the subject from participating in rioting. The NP object 'my mom's threat of punishment' functions as a causee, and the sentence aligns with the semantic and syntactic properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

From grades nine through 11 , I was fortunate enough to attend Community High School , a free-thinking smaller public alternative school to the two larger high schools in Ann Arbor , Michigan , where I lived from age four until 18 . Ann Arbor was and still is a radical liberal town with a proud history of open-minded optimism . I was a 17 year old junior in 1996 , and something happened that year that changed my life forever . Our school was within walking distance of downtown Ann Arbor and city hall . As students , we were given permission to spend our lunch breaks and after school time in the midst of Ann Arbor 's small but stimulating street culture . It was a vibrant and dynamic mixture of University of Michigan graduate students , rogue musicians , sidewalk preachers , sketchy odd-ball drifters , and leftover psychedelic hippies from the city 's prime back in the 1960s . One day , the town began nervously buzzing with news of an impending rally , staged by a chapter of the Ku Klux Klan . Hailing from elsewhere in the state @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Arbor 's city hall , with the intention of provoking the residents of this town in which they knew they would not be well-received . The imminent KKK demonstration quickly became the talk of the school . So much so that one of our teachers worked it into a lesson on the First Amendment , explaining how , in America , everyone had a right to voice their opinions and viewpoints , even when they clashed with the ideals most of us thought of as good and right . Still , many of the students in my school , myself included , did n't accept this . It did n't make sense . We understood freedom of speech , but we also felt that certain opinions were simply too extreme and awful to be allowed -- the people holding such beliefs should be able to be stopped by any means necessary . As a result of all this passionate debate , some students began planning a counter demonstration and were prepared to use violence against the KKK and their supporters . I understood what they were feeling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to engage in violence and suggested that this passionate reaction and dangerous backlash was exactly what the Klan wanted -- to start a riot among these otherwise peaceful and loving young people , instigating them into a violent display of their own . I cried in deep waves and could n't explain why . My mom said it was because I was experiencing my heart opening . When the day of the rally finally came , the atmosphere was so tense that riot police were mobilized , and temporary chain-link fencing was put up around city hall . I had planned to go along with a group of friends , but my mom begged me to come straight home after school . I admit that I was scared by the rocks and bottles I saw some students stockpiling , and the idea of getting into a confrontation with anyone -- even someone I hated -- was terrifying to me . In the end , I was relieved to have my mom 's threat of punishment as an excuse to bow out of rioting . I felt very @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , full of shame that I did n't have that warrior spirit to fight against these prejudiced people . But I was also confused . I 'd never seen my school go through anything like this before . I felt like we were all getting tricked by some evil force , and I watched in dazed horror as some of the most peace-loving hippies in our school metamorphosed into weapon-toting militants , determined to " crack some racist skulls , " and show Michigan and the world that Ann Arbor hates people who hate people . Naturally , on the day of the rally , chaos ensued . Violence broke out . And when it did a young woman and fellow Community High School student named Keshia Thomas , with one courageous act , changed my life , the lives of countless people in my high school and around the world forever . Keshia was a year older than me , and I often saw her in my Audio/Video classroom . She was well liked in our school , and possessed a natural leadership quality that drew others @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ protected by police and barricades , but the crowd noticed an older man on their side of the barriers . He had a Confederate flag on his shirt and inked into his arm , along with some other Nazi tattoos . He had come in support of the Klan , and when the assembled anti-Klan rioters noticed him , they gave chase . When they caught up to him , he tripped and fell to the ground . The crowd instantly surrounded him and began beating and stabbing at him with the wooden stakes of their protest signs , kicking and punching him as he lay curled up in a fetal position . Suddenly , without warning , Keshia flung herself on top of this man , shielding him from the increasingly violent attack , quite possibly saving his life . Keisha Thomas throws herself on top of a man with Nazi tattoos to protect him from an angry mob . Photo by Mark Brunner via Getty The crowd stopped their attack and stood around in a sober moment of reflection . Later on , she said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ laid her down on top of him . What Keshia did in that moment was so utterly selfless that it did seem like something otherworldly had transpired . The crowd was stunned into a stupor . They had just witnessed the living example of someone loving their enemy . This young woman had literally laid her life down for a man who might not have done the same for her . It made no sense at all , and yet , in the midst of this ugly and violent event , it was the only thing that made sense . It was a kindness so sincere and deep that it broke through the confusion and created a moment of calm and clarity amidst the hatred and anger . Just hearing about the event secondhand and seeing the news accounts that followed left people in a daze . The biggest challenges we face demand the most from us . I remember seeing the photos the next day in the local paper and collapsing to my knees and weeping in our kitchen at home . I cried in deep @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it was because I was experiencing my heart opening . It moved me more deeply than I can describe . In one cataclysmic moment , I felt determined to become a better person -- to strive to someday be a truly loving human being -- to somehow reach the level Keshia seemed to operating on . She transformed ignorant weakness into powerful integrity using the only force powerful enough to do so : love . She forced all who were there and even who were n't to confront the real possibility of an irrational and unconditional love -- a love so strong and pure that it 's impossible to wrap your head around . You can only wrap your heart around it . Why would Keshia Thomas save this man ? A man who , had she not stepped in to stop his beating , could 've used the attack he suffered as further justification for his own underdeveloped beliefs and hate and bigotry . Keshia broke the pattern . The biggest challenges we face demand the most from us . Our most advanced problems require our @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I have all these skills yet , but what Keshia did that day is proof it 's possible . That type of selfless love is not a dream . Love and hope for all humanity is not a na ? ve fantasy . As always , love remains the only answer . And we need it now more than ever . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It describes an event ('a goal for Spurs') happening 'out of nothing', which is a different usage of 'out of' and does not involve a transitive verb with an object and a VP[-ing] predicate. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Well , that was quite the finish ! West Ham looked on course for victory , Spurs bereft of ideas . But Heung-min Son sparked into life at the end , and his two bursts down the left set up two goals for the hero Harry Kane . What a comeback ! All of a sudden , Spurs are just three points off the top , their unbeaten record still intact !

The next quarter of an hour should be a lot of fun ! 75 min : And another fine chance goes begging . Zaza should set Payet free in the box down the inside-left . He delays before passing . Payet still has half a chance to shoot , but ca n't decide what to do . Eventually the ball ends up back at Zaza 's feet . He snaps a shot towards the bottom right , but Lloris has that covered all the way . 73 min : West Ham should be out of sight . Zaza sprayed a pass down the inside left channel to release Fernandes on goal . But Fernandes forgets to take the ball with him . By the time he checks @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ chance for a one-on-one spurned . 70 min : Penalty was the correct decision there . Janssen idiotically hauled Reid back , clear as day . There was no question about it . Doubly annoyingly for Spurs , Mauricio Pochettino was preparing to take Janssen off , but did n't want to make the sub at a set piece . Oh dear . He 's hooked him now , though , with Dele Alli coming on in his stead . 67 min : West Ham make an increasingly rare sortie into Spurs territory . A high ball forward is won by Antonio ; it clatters off Rose and that 's a corner on the right . From the set piece , Cresswell picks the ball up deep and drives down the left to win another corner , this time on the other side . Payet takes , fires low , and ... 65 min : Rose dribbles in from the left and drops a shoulder to pass Antonio .

Kane , at the far post , looks to head back across goal , but his attempt to do so is blocked by Antonio . Kane claims a hand ball , and he 'd have a point were Antonio not standing right next to him with his back to play , without a clue as to what 's going on . No penalty . 53 min : Winks has been Tottenham 's best player tonight , so he deserved that . White Hart Lane is bouncing . Spurs , to a man , look renewed .

Randolph parries well , but the rebound breaks to Winks , who has gambled on a chance falling his way . He forces the ball into the net from close range , and races off in the style of Ricky Villa in the 1981 FA Cup final replay ! What a moment for the young man ! 48 min : Tottenham 's defence does appear to be in uncharacteristically dozy mood . Payet has an awful lot of time to play a pass from the pocket . He scoops forward for Ayew , but it 's no good . Had Ayew made a better run , leaving Payet an easier passing option , Spurs would have been in trouble .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

21:55Saturday 19 November 2016 Ross County won 4-2 at St Johnstone , with four headed goals lifting the Staggies off the foot of the Ladbrokes Premiership and giving them a first win in 11 matches . Jay McEveley and Christopher Routis struck in a first half performance that belied County 's lowly position at the foot of the Ladbrokes Premiership . A third header from Craig Curran just after the hour mark made it 3-0 , before Danny Swanson gave Saints hope with a penalty just two minutes later .

21:55Saturday 19 November 2016 Ross County won 4-2 at St Johnstone , with four headed goals lifting the Staggies off the foot of the Ladbrokes Premiership and giving them a first win in 11 matches . Jay McEveley and Christopher Routis struck in a first half performance that belied County 's lowly position at the foot of the Ladbrokes Premiership . A third header from Craig Curran just after the hour mark made it 3-0 , before Danny Swanson gave Saints hope with a penalty just two minutes later . Steven MacLean 's emphatic finish in the 80th minute looked to have set up a grandstand finish but Liam Boyce 's deflected header four minutes later ensured the three points would be heading north .

' will save more lives '
A new ambulance response system will cut the proportion of calls requiring the fastest call-out by almost three-quarters . The Scottish Ambulance Service will now trial the new system aimed at prioritising life-threatening calls such as car crashes and cardiac arrest . The service said the proportion of calls requiring the fastest response time of eight minutes will fall by 74% and the new system would help " save more lives " . In response to a Liberal Democrat Freedom of Information request , the ambulance service said : " In terms of 999 calls , the proportion of calls categorised as requiring an eight-minute response will change from 30.6% of the total volume to approximately 8% of the total volume . " The new model has three levels - i mmediately life-threatening calls , such as a cardiac arrest , will maintain the current eight-minute target ; calls requiring a fast response and transfer to a healthcare facility will be prioritised by clinical need and receive a blue-light @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will be ' ' managed safely at home ' ' or by referral to GPs , NHS 24 or social care services . The first category includes serious road accidents , patients who are unconscious and not breathing , and pregnant or very young patients , while the second category includes people with chest pains , breathing problems or stroke symptoms . The service said a year-long review of clinical data found 103,708 calls were classed as needing an eight-minute response later found not necessary , while 4,040 were allocated an eight-minute response time not previously in place . Liberal Democrat MSP Alex Cole-Hamilton said : " These new figures reveal that the number of calls requiring an eight-minute response is set to be cut by almost three-quarters as the service prioritises those calls which are the most urgent . " In August , Scottish Liberal Democrats highlighted the pressure our ambulance service was under when we uncovered that over 4,000 of the most urgent call-outs took longer than 20 minutes for an ambulance to arrive . If this system can avoid this happening and ensure @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ car crashes even quicker , then it is worth piloting . " Every second counts when people are critically ill . While this new system has real potential , it must not be seen as a substitute for ensuring SNP ministers give the service the support the service needs to save lives . " Scottish Ambulance Service chief executive Pauline Howie said : " Our new response model is being introduced to save more lives and improve the quality of care for patients . " The model is based on the most extensive , clinically-evidenced review of its kind ever undertaken in the UK , involving almost 500,000 patient cases . This review will help us send patients the right response based on their health needs . " We will be able to respond faster to more patients with time-critical , immediately life-threatening conditions , such as cardiac arrest . These are patients who may only have minutes to live without intervention . " In other situations , we will safely and more effectively send more patients the response they need first time , improving @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ immediate danger will still receive a response within eight minutes even though this is not clinically required . " C hief Medical Officer Catherine Calderwood said : " I am persuaded by the extensive clinical evidence that has been put forward and know that patient safety is at the heart of these changes .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and the phrase 'out of promoting' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a means of making a fortune, which does not align with the construction's properties.

" I suggested to him in a drunken moment , why do n't we start our own ? " says his friend Andrew Swain , who assembled a cast of local doctors , nut farmers , chefs , builders and Wright himself -- none of whom speak a word of Russian -- to learn the songs . Dustyesky , coached in the lyrics by a Russian friend of Swain 's , are now a Mullum staple .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'got a kick out of wearing high class clothing' involves the verb 'got' with an NP object 'a kick', and 'out of' is followed by a gerund phrase 'wearing high class clothing', but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it expresses enjoyment, which is not a characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of nothing' is a prepositional phrase modifying 'make up', not a VP[-ing] predicate.

Tucker Carlson , ... new golden boy of Fox News , could easily have lost his TV career years ago after he was falsely accused of rape , he has revealed . The dapper host 's blossoming career - which has gone into overdrive since the huge ratings of his new primetime Fox News show - could have been cut short if the accusation contained in a lawyer 's letter had been made public in the early 2000s . And now the woman who accused him has exclusively told DailyMail.com that it was all a misunderstanding - brought on by a mental health condition from which she was suffering . She also blamed her lawyer , saying he should never have written to the TV host threatening to prosecute him for sexual assault . Scroll down for video Tucker Carlson , the new golden boy of Fox News , could easily have lost his TV career years ago after he was falsely accused of rape , he has revealed Kimberly Carter , the woman who accused Carlson , ( pictured on her now-defunct accountancy website ) told DailyMail.com that it was a misunderstanding Carter , who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ schizoaffective disorder , a condition with symptoms similar to schizophrenia and bi-polar disorder . She said a friend had told her that Carlson would be at Harper 's Restaurant , a burger and pizza joint in Louisville , Kentucky , and she went along to try to meet him . ' I had a bit of a crush on him at the time , ' she said . Carter , now 56 , said she fell while in the restaurant , hitting her head . ' The next thing I knew people were waking me up with smelling salts . ' She said she spoke to her attorney Paul ' Matt ' Blanton and told him something may have happened in the restaurant and she may have been molested , but she was n't certain . ' I said " do n't do anything about it until I find out for sure " , but he went ahead and wrote the letter , ' added Carter . ' I think he was trying to make a name for himself , but he did n't have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Carlson 's onetime accuser said she later realized she had not been molested and she wrote to him to apologize . The TV star 's new show , Tucker Carlson Tonight , debuted last Monday , drawing in 3.7 million viewers - Fox 's biggest audience of the year during that time slot , according to Nielsen Media Research . The viewing figures were more than the audience for CNN and MSNBC combined . But in his book , Politicians , Partisans and Parasites , Carlson - who has been married to high school sweetheart Susan Andrews since 1991 - revealed that the false charge could easily have ended his career in television shortly after it began . Carlson has been married to high school sweetheart Susan Andrews since 1991 ( pictured together in 2013 ) He was accused while working for his first TV employer , CNN , where he was employed from 2000 to 2005 . And he realized the Atlanta-based network would have had no compunction in canning him if the allegation leaked out . ' I knew the network @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ letter , and certainly if charges were filed against me , ' he wrote . ' The one thing every journalist knows for certain about sex scandals is that they 're always true . Partly true anyway . ' Maybe you did n't rape this woman , they 'd think ; maybe you just had unusually rough sadomasochistic sex with her and she misconstrued it . Or maybe your affair with her simply fell apart in an acrimonious way , perhaps over your cocaine habit . ' Maybe you had sex with her but never knew her name . Something definitely happened between you , though . People do n't just make up specific allegations out of nothing . ' The TV star 's new show , Tucker Carlson Tonight , debuted last Monday , drawing in 3.7 million viewers - Fox 's biggest audience of the year during that time slot , according to Nielsen Media Research The viewing figures for the show 's debut were more than the audience for CNN and MSNBC combined But Carlson , who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ after more than a decade and a half of bouncing around from CNN to MSNBC to Fox , insists that 's exactly what happened with him . In the book , written in 2003 when he was still with CNN , Carlson went into great detail about how the supposed incident in Louisville occurred . ' We met at Harper 's Restaurant on Hurstborne Parkway , where I slipped narcotics into her drink , ' wrote Carlson , describing Carter 's account of the attack . ' She knew immediately that she had been violently raped . By me . In the restaurant . Presumably within view of dozens of other people , not one of whom had thought to report the crime to the police or the press . ' It was a preposterous story . I 'd never heard of Harper 's Restaurant . I 'd never been to Louisville . Judging from my schedule in March , I could n't have gotten there . I was on television almost every night in Washington . ' But Carlson said that even though his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ attorney that the accusation was simply not believable , he was given just a week to prove it was untrue or Blanton would take the case to the prosecutor . Blanton was referring to fan letters that his client had written to Carlson , the TV talking head said . Carlson named Carter and described the incident in his 2003 book , Politicians , Partisans and Parasites ' Twice she had sent me small gifts , keychains , and ballpoint pens . I wrote her thank-you notes both times , hence her lawyer 's claim about " correspondence " . I had n't remembered any of this . ' Later , one of my producers dug up an e-mail Carter sent me . " I watch your show all of the time , " it said . " You are great . " ' Carlson claimed she had written it on his birthday , a month after he had supposedly raped her . ' It 's hard to hate someone who is delusional , and as angry as I was , I was inclined @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' Carlson wrote , but her attorney was another matter . ' ( T ) he weaselly , pompous little Matt Blanton - I wanted to kill him . At the very least I wanted him to pay my legal bills , which by this point had reached over $14,000 , not a dime of it covered by insurance or the network . And I wanted a prolonged , groveling , preferably tearful apology for sending a letter to my place of work accusing me of a felony sex crime . ' But he did n't get either because his own lawyers pointed out that trying to sue the lawyer would only draw attention to the fact that he had been accused of rape in the first place . ' In the end , my name would be joined in the same sentence with the word rape , and it was worth at least fourteen grand to keep that from happening . ' A week after the case was dropped , Carter sent Carlson a letter . ' In light of the evidence that you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ me was not in actuality Tucker Carlson , but an imposter , ' she wrote . That infuriated Carlson even more . ' She said sorry , sort of , and that was the extent of her contrition , ' he wrote in his book . ' Because , as she went on to explain , she 's the real victim here . " I do n't appreciate the statements that you made about my mental status , " Carter wrote , launching into a lecture about the need to show sensitivity and tolerance toward people with emotional disabilities . ' I am a highly educated individual , with multiple degrees , ' she said . Yes , she conceded , ' I am a manic-depressive . ' But ' everyone of concern knows that this condition can be very well managed . It is usually the ignorant that sensationalize it . There are some very successful people who have this condition . I know many . ' ' In other words , " the TV host wrote , " Carter 's craziness may have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ my reputation , and my freedom . But it was still wrong of me - " ignorant " - to suggest that her mental illness might not be such a good thing . ' Nuts or not , Kimberly Carter had a lot of chutzpah , ' he wrote . Six months later , Carter contacted him again , sending a clock radio with his name on and apologizing ' for the misunderstanding . ' Another letter followed in which she called herself ' Your Biggest Fan ! ' ' Her next card had five exclamation points , which I took as a sign of escalating mania . I looked her up on the Internet to try to assess the threat . ' She was there . In fact , she had her own website , **28;558;TOOLONG , complete with a photograph of herself sitting at the computer . I 'd never seen her before . She was a heavyset woman in her early forties with waist-length hair and short bangs . She did n't look crazy . ' The site gave me the creeps @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her to stop bothering me , ' he wrote . ' I never did , though . No matter how tempting it may be , no good can come from corresponding with the mentally ill . ' Carlson overcame the allegation and now his career is blossoming . His new show 's debut last week won the second highest ratings all year for the 7 pm slot with 3.7 million viewers and continued with high ratings throughout its first week . DailyMail.com put calls in to Blanton 's office in Paoli , Indiana , but they were not returned . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'making a fortune out of overpricing young gems' involves a transitive verb 'making' with an NP object 'a fortune', but it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the NP object 'a fortune' does not function as a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

New prospects seem to be appearing by the day and with this great urge of the biggest teams to keep improving and renewing their rosters , agents are making a fortune out of overpricing young gems that may or may not be the next big thing of the sport . One country that 's been the native land of the most impressively talented players through the history of this beautiful sport is Brazil , as the tropical land constantly develops speedy forwards and strong defenders that often thrive in Europe during most of their careers . After the surge of Gabriel Jesus during the past season , there 's another guy in Brazil that 's set to do great things in England ; Santos ' midfielder Thiago Maia , who 's reportedly been followed pretty closely by several clubs including Chelsea and Manchester United , and the Red Devils seem like the frontrunners to acquire the services of the talented lad . Despite being just 19 years , he has become one of the most important guys for Santos @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has a history of great discoverings like Robinho , Paulo Henrique Ganso and dozens of amazingly talented players . So , should Manchester United make a run at him ? He 's also been linked with big clubs like Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus , so you know there could be a massive bidding war for Santos 's new wonderboy , and it 's pretty easy to notice why he 's been scouted by the best teams in the world . Thiago Maia certainly turned some heads during that amazing Olympic run Brazil had at home several months ago , and he 's asking price is reportedly around the 20 million pound mark , something that you could consider a bargain taking in mind how overpriced youngsters tend to be nowadays . The young midfielder is a mastermind on defence and it 's not an easy task to dribble past him , as he averages 2.1 interceptions , 3.1 tackles and 1.1 clearances per game , winning most of his aerial duels due to his outstanding physique despite his tender age . On top of that , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ player at all , averaging just over 1 foul per game and earning just 4 yellow cards in over 29 appearances for the Brazilian side this season , something very impressive if you consider where this guy spends most of the time on the field . His dribbling and passing abilities are also pretty good , as he can create opportunities for his teammates on the offensive side of the field with great ease , but he 's yet to record a goal so far this season , although he has a pretty decent long range capability . Thiago Maia should be on almost every single team 's agenda right now , and given how poorly Manchester United has performed during most of the season , it 'll make a lot of sense to try and pursue the youngster , even if they intend to offer him on a loan right away , as he looks like he 's more than ready to contribute from the start but you never know what goes into Jose Mourinho 's mind . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

The backlash came ... Mr Trump , the president-elect , urged Mrs May to make Mr Farage Britain 's ambassador to America . There were claims from two sources that David Davis , the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union secretary , " spoke regularly " with the interim Ukip leader , with one saying that Mr Davis " knows Nigel well " . One senior Government source blamed Mrs May 's " more measured approach " and keenness to follow protocol for preventing Foreign Office officials getting to the front of the queue and admitted ministers were now playing " catch-up " to engage with Mr Trump . The source said the absence of protocols and knowledge of orders of precedence " allows anybody to get in front if they have his mobile phone number " . But the source added : " Is this a 100 metre dash to the other end or is this a marathon or a mile race where on the second or third lap we are going to overtake people ? " In a sign of the two men 's closeness , Mr Trump said he urged Mr Farage to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 10 days ago . " I might have brought it up , " the president-elect told the New York Times .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'coming out of' as a phrasal verb to describe the origin of negative comments, which does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction. There is no causer-causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The backlash came ... Mr Trump , the president-elect , urged Mrs May to make Mr Farage Britain 's ambassador to America . There were claims from two sources that David Davis , the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union secretary , " spoke regularly " with the interim Ukip leader , with one saying that Mr Davis " knows Nigel well " . One senior Government source blamed Mrs May 's " more measured approach " and keenness to follow protocol for preventing Foreign Office officials getting to the front of the queue and admitted ministers were now playing " catch-up " to engage with Mr Trump . The source said the absence of protocols and knowledge of orders of precedence " allows anybody to get in front if they have his mobile phone number " . But the source added : " Is this a 100 metre dash to the other end or is this a marathon or a mile race where on the second or third lap we are going to overtake people ? " In a sign of the two men 's closeness , Mr Trump said he urged Mr Farage to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 10 days ago . " I might have brought it up , " the president-elect told the New York Times .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'makes a virtue out of being Mr Ordinary' does not involve a causee NP object participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to be an idiomatic expression where 'out of' is part of a prepositional phrase modifying 'virtue'.

and last autumn statement was a sombre affair . The chancellor largely dispensed with political theatre to tell it straight . Britain 's economy is dysfunctional . Austerity has failed . Welfare cuts are going to bite . Brexit will be a ? 60bn drag on growth and the public finances . That 's the way it is .
Read more The one small nod towards gimmickry was the ? 7m the government has made available to save Wentworth Woodhouse , a stately home in South Yorkshire said to be the inspiration for Pemberley in Jane Austen 's Pride and Prejudice . A different chancellor would have milked the literary allusion for a few cheap laughs . Not Hammond , though . At root , his statement was all about how the vulnerabilities of the British economy have been exposed by the decision to leave the European Union . There is a 30% productivity gap between Britain and Germany . Prosperity is concentrated in London and the south-east . There has been insufficient investment in research and development , in transport infrastructure , in superfast @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the government has struggled in vain to eliminate the record peacetime budget deficit it inherited from Labour in 2010 and why the UK 's balance of payments deficit is running at 6% of national output . In or out of the EU , they would need to be addressed . Brexit has made tackling them more urgent . The vote on 23 June has given Hammond the chance to break with the past . Although the economy is expected to slow over the next two years , the chancellor has decided to borrow to invest . The government has put aside ? 23bn for infrastructure projects over the next five years , a relatively modest sum in the context of a ? 1.8tn economy but welcome nevertheless . Money has become available because Hammond has dispensed with George Osborne 's plan to run a budget surplus by the end of the current parliament in 2019-20 . By pushing deficit reduction beyond the next election , the chancellor has given himself scope for some additional public expenditure while at the same time holding something back in case the relatively @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Responsibility ( OBR ) prove optimistic . Before the referendum , Osborne made dire predictions for the economy should Britain vote to leave the EU . The Treasury suggested there would be an instant recession necessitating an emergency budget involving ? 30bn of tax increases and spending cuts . In the event , strong consumer confidence has meant the economy has beaten expectations . The OBR has slightly raised its growth forecast for 2016 , a year in which the UK 's economy looks likely to expand more quickly than any of its G7 rivals . Next year it is a different story . The OBR thinks the fall in the value of the pound will result in dearer imports , higher inflation and a stalling of real income growth . It also expects uncertainty caused by the Brexit divorce negotiations to result in weaker private investment . Read more Both these assumptions look plausible despite Hammond 's autumn statement measures . Higher government spending on infrastructure is designed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ commit to new capital projects , while the higher national living wage , the modest adjustments to universal credit and yet another year of frozen fuel duties are intended to support the consumer . But the impact of these moves should not be exaggerated . There was a strong element of continuity in the autumn statement : the bulk of the cuts announced by Osborne will still go ahead . There was no extra money for the struggling NHS and thin gruel for the so-called Jams ( just about managing households ) despite the hype . The Child Poverty Action Group has calculated that a single parent with one child and no housing costs earning ? 15,000 a year will be ? 170 a year better off as a result of the new universal credit regime . But the same person stood to lose out by ? 3,170 a year as a result of the summer 2015 budget . Hammond has the scope to provide more help for the Jams during 2017 when there will be both a spring and an autumn budget . The OBR says the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he has the scope to borrow ? 56bn more by 2020-21 than Osborne was planning . Of that , ? 20bn will be soaked up by lower growth and a further ? 10bn has been earmarked for higher spending , mainly on infrastructure . That leaves Hammond ? 26.5bn to play with . The autumn statement , in other words , is not a self-contained work like Pride and Prejudice , but more a trilogy with parts two and three to come next year . Which one ? Well , the economy is shrouded in fog , the government believes that fiscal pain will be worth it in the end and the chancellor makes a virtue out of being Mr Ordinary . Simple really : Fifty Shades of Grey . |

The sentence 'Dramatic moment heartbroken Brit tourist is talked out of jumping from 30ft shopping mall ledge while dangling from railings' is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction. It follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'heartbroken Brit tourist' is the NP object, 'is talked' is the V1 in passive voice, and 'jumping from 30ft shopping mall ledge' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. This example induces a prevention interpretation, as the action of talking prevents the tourist from jumping.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The verb 'take' is followed by an NP object 'the corporate connotations' and then 'out of suiting', where 'suiting' is a gerund but the overall meaning does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe removing connotations from a type of clothing, which does not align with the semantic requirements of the construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'create goals out of nothing', where 'out of nothing' is a prepositional phrase modifying 'create goals', not involving a VP[-ing] predicate.

The sentence 'Ireland winger Keith Earls feels he was cheated out of playing for Axel' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It has a prevention interpretation, where the subject (Keith Earls) was prevented from playing for Axel by means of cheating. The verb 'cheated' falls under the category of means by deception or trickery. The NP object 'he' is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'playing for Axel'. The sentence also appears in passive voice, which is acceptable for this construction. Therefore, it is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Ireland winger Keith Earls feels he was cheated out of playing for Axel Munster and Ireland winger Keith Earls says he feels he was cheated from playing for former head coach Anthony Foley 's memory . Earls was speaking ahead of Ireland 's November international clash with Australia , live on Sky Sports , at the Aviva Stadium on Saturday following his reinstatement to the starting XV . Foley died suddenly aged just 42 on 16 October at Munster 's Paris team hotel before a European Cup match with Racing 92 in the French capital . Post-mortem tests subsequently revealed that the former Ireland skipper died of acute pulmonary oedema , a heart condition which caused fluid to build up in his lungs . Munster faced Glasgow Warriors at Thomond Park just a week later to emotional and poignant scenes , but Earls received a red card after just 19 minutes for a tip tackle on Warriors hooker Fraser Brown . " It was a massive game , it meant a lot to us , " Earls told the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ general , from burying your head coach and then an hour later doing a captain 's run . It 's just not right .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks a clear NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate structure. Additionally, the phrase 'elbowed out of mining activities' does not clearly induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the construction. The context suggests a metaphorical use of 'elbowed out' rather than a grammatical construction involving causation and prevention or movement.

Zanu-PF Mashonaland Central provincial and district executive members have distanced themselves from a resolution read out by acting provincial chairperson Cde Dickson Mafios challenging President Mugabe 's status as the only centre of power in the party with the mandate to appoint his deputies . The resolution , they said , was apparently " a family affair ' ' and the brainchild of Cde Mafios , who is brother to national political commissar , Cde Saviour Kasukuwere . Cde Kasukuwere is reported to be a key figure in the so-called G40-faction along with Professor Jonathan Moyo , who hails from Matabeleland North but has been at the forefront of defending what has been dubbed " the Mafioso resolution ' ' on social media . Several district and provincial executive members yesterday held meetings and distanced themselves from the controversial resolution .

They said the purported resolution only popped up when final resolutions were being read out , a clear indication that it was smuggled in by senior members . The members said Central Committee member Cde Martin Mavhangira was in-fact , rebuked when he inquired about the resolution during the provincial inter-district meeting in Bindura last weekend . Cde Mafios , who himself was not elected , yesterday told The Herald that there was no going back on the resolution that President Mugabe should not appoint his deputies but have them elected by party members .

Theories of the ... abound , but have you heard of any for the short story ? The form is slippery , defiant , uncategorisable , the best examples making something new of the surplus in which the form trades . A successful short story , after all , is greater than the sum of its parts ; an unsolvable equation , if you will , where there will always be at least one variable that can not be pinned down . This core of absence is everything in the form , its very meaning . That the general British readership is unaware of perhaps the greatest living master of the short story , the 72-year-old American writer Joy Williams , is a matter of some shame -- but also cause for exultation , because an enthralling discovery awaits . The Visiting Privilege contains most of the stories from three of her four collections -- the fourth one , 99 Stories of God , is an exercise in microfiction -- and throws in 13 new ones . Williams makes that mysterious , ambiguous surplus not simply a matter of a concluding flourish , but allows it to leak back to colour the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the very soul of her stories , whether it lies in their interpretive indeterminacy , in the surreal turn some of them take , or in their frequent gestures towards , or the incursion of , the metaphysical ; they remain irreducible and inexhaustible . With most short stories , a two-sentence precis would give some idea , however pale , of the work ; Williams ' stories resist this entirely . Their meanings lie neither in plot , nor in the prose , which is plain to the point of austerity . Only at very rare moments will she allow herself something approaching the sparse poetry of the following : In the southern dusk , the dark grew out of the sky like a hoof of mud dissolving in a clear pool . But on the island , dusk seemed to grow out of nothing at all . Dusk and night being a figment of fog , an exhaustion of wave , the time when blackness sank into the town as if buildings and trees were a pit to be filled . To say that " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ builds an elaborate enclosure for a desert tortoise , the cruel twist at the end making you wonder if dealing with bereavement is not a Sisyphean task , is to say next to nothing about the way it works . To observe that in " Rot " , the Thunderbird corroded irreparably by rust that sits in the living room of Lucy and Dwight is an embodied metaphor of their marriage , is to state the obvious . Far more interesting , and elusive , is the gear-shift in mood and meaning when Lucy catches Dwight asleep behind the wheel of this car and feels the world robbed of its promise . How did Dwight 's infatuation with a piece of junk get us here ? The enormous effects are hidden , like depth charges , and one can only account for them via the process of rich bafflement they produce . What are the stories about , you may ask yourself . Williams has provided a clue in the epigraph , from a verse in the first letter to the Corinthians : " Behold , I tell you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we shall all be changed , In a moment , in the twinkling of an eye ... " Nearly all of her stories turn around a transformative moment , often mysterious to the point of acquiring a metaphysical valence , and often occurring outside the margins of the pages . In " The Skater " , Annie and Tom 's search for a boarding school for their daughter Molly is really the displaced mourning for their dead daughter Martha , a note first sounded when Annie says , while visiting a prospective school for Molly , " Martha would really like this school , would n't she ? " , to which Tom replies , " We do n't know ... Please do n't , Annie . " We have grown used to the invisible presence of the unsaid in the short story , but Williams 's genius is to have it suddenly bubble up , giving us a momentary glimpse , then letting the surface settle again ; everything is now changed , both for the reader and the characters . The new stories are mostly about the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " In the Park " , for example , is all of five emotionally dense pages ; it sees ranger Preyman , mourning the loss of his father , receive intimations of death in the Florida Everglades in a way that makes you wonder if his death will conclude the story . You 'd be both right and wrong , since the culminating vision is totally unexpected and moving . Like some subatomic particle , Williams can be in two states simultaneously : compassionate and ruthless . Her vision is angular , undeluded , astringent . The blank space between each of her sentences is loaded with intelligence and surprise , because you can never tell what the next sentence is going to be , or bring . Reading her is exhilarating and dangerous , as if you 're poised on the brink of a canyon . And make no mistake , she is great , easily taking her place among the ranks of Mavis Gallant , Flannery O'Connor , Grace Paley , John Cheever and Raymond Carver .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a situation where the couple is 'priced out of buying,' which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move or preventing them from doing something through a specific means. The phrase 'priced out of buying' is more about economic exclusion rather than the transitive out of -ing construction.

So will the ... on lettings agents charging fees to tenants push rents up ? That 's the question many renters will be asking after the government 's autumn statement announcement . The good news is that this is more than a proposal : the chancellor , Philip Hammond , said ministers " will " bring in a ban , which means that tenants will no longer have to pay fees that can run into the hundreds when they sign a new tenancy agreement . But some felt there was a worrying lack of detail -- Hammond merely said it would happen " as soon as possible " , while the Treasury said the government " will consult on this in due course " . So it 's far from clear when the fees will be outlawed . But how much do people actually pay ? There are varying figures . The latest English Housing Survey , published in July , found that 40% of private renters were charged a fee by a letting agency or landlord in 2014-15 , at an average of ? 223 . Citizens Advice last year put the total average tenancy fee at ? 337 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in seven ( 15% ) renters using an agency forked out more than ? 500 . However , the biggest area of debate was whether the ban will drive up rents , on the grounds that landlords will now have to pay these costs and will simply pass them on to tenants . Or will landlords or letting agents absorb the costs ? Guardian Money decided to round up the views of experts and commentators on the key question of whether the ban will mean higher rents . Generation Rent , which campaigns for better privately rented homes , says : " We do n't think it will push up rents , mainly because rents are really just set by what people are prepared to pay in the market . Rents have been rising because demand has been so high . " The organisation says the fact that there is such huge variation in the level of fees charged shows there is a lot of scope for getting these costs down . It adds that landlords will have the power @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the group campaigning for affordable house prices , believes it is " very likely that landlords and agents will bear most of the costs , as they have done in Scotland , which banned fees years ago " . It adds that even if all fees were to be passed on in the form of higher rent , " this will still benefit tenants , as their costs will be spread and they will find it easier to move home , giving them more bargaining power " . Shelterpublished a report in 2013 that looked at what had happened in Scotland . There , it has been illegal to charge " premiums " -- fees charged at the start of a tenancy , in addition to rent and the deposit -- to renters since 1984 . However , the law was n't enforced until 2012 , when it was clarified . Shelter said its research had shown that landlords in Scotland " were no more likely to have increased rents since 2012 than landlords elsewhere in the UK " . In fact , only one landlord in 120 surveyed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had passed this on to their tenants . easyProperty , the online estate agent , says : " Any sensible agency wo n't pass on the charges to landlords due to competition in the sector , so we do n't foresee rent rises , as there is no need to add the fees to rents . " Read more Housing minister Gavin Barwell was asked two months ago whether he would follow the Scottish example and ban letting fees . He tweeted : " Bad idea -- landlords would pass cost to tenants via rent . We 're looking at other ways to cut upfront costs & raise standards " . It 's not clear whether Barwell has since changed his mind ... or had it changed for him . Beresfords , a chain of estate agents , says : " Ultimately landlords will be expected to pick up most , if not all , of any fees lost by agents . However , landlords will want to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do so is by increasing the rent . Unfortunately , over time , tenants could end up paying much more in uplifted rent than what they would have expected to pay in initial fees at the outset . " The Residential Landlords Association says : " This will not help tenants , especially those who are ' just managing ' . Agents ' fees have to be paid by somebody . If any extra fees are passed on to landlords , tenants will end up paying them for ever , as rents will increase . " Simon Gerrard , MD of London estate agency Martyn Gerrard and a past president of the National Association of Estate Agents , says yields for landlords are already low , " so lowering them further means landlords will simply sell rather than rent , which will push rents up even higher because there will be less stock " . He adds : " The landlords that do stay in the market will have to increase rents to cover these new costs . " Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ debate on 18 November that Gavin Barwell has " been clear that we must be mindful of the potential impact on rents from banning fees paid by tenants ... This is not a straightforward issue , and we have to be careful that any changes do not have impacts elsewhere " . Over the past decade Sarah Cross has become an expert on London 's rental market , having moved every year between 2007 and 2015 -- often not out of choice . So she was pleased at the government 's decision to ban letting agents ' fees to tenants . " That 's a really positive thing -- previously we 've paid nearly ? 1,000 just in fees and charges .

She and her partner both earn above the national average -- their household income is ? 80,000 -- but they still ca n't afford to buy a family house in London . " We have no money to save after rent and bills , " says Cross , 31 , who works as an operations specialist for a major company . This also means the couple 's plans to grow their family are currently on hold . " We 'd like another child , but living in London limits your funds -- and we do n't really feel like we have enough behind us to have a larger family . " The couple pay around ? 1,300 a month in rent , with childcare swallowing a further ? 1,000 . They are clearly not financially destitute -- " We go on holiday " -- but Cross adds : " One of us basically pays the rent and bills , and the other pays for childcare and essentials . " Having had to move so often in the past , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ contract " to ensure we would n't have to disrupt our whole lives one year later " . Cross says that , like many people , they are in a catch-22 situation : house prices are stratospheric because too few homes have been built in London to sustain the number of people , but they do n't feel they can move out because " the employment would n't be there " . She says something needs to be done to get the capital 's housing market working properly . She is " intrigued " by the news of 40,000 additional affordable homes , but says : " It 's really important we build more affordable homes that are fit for purpose -- we 've viewed several shared ownership schemes and have n't found one appropriate for family living - and that maybe we limit the price that we pay on rental properties .

The phrase 'take the self-consciousness out of being literary' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

from Magnus Mills . It came in a plain brown envelope , and was handwritten on a plain sheet of white A4 . " Dear J , " it began . " Thanks for asking and I 'm really very flattered , but I do n't think I 'll be able to supply a handwritten letter . " It went on to explain the ways his time was taken up with work or with thinking about work . It was thoughtful and well-written , and concluded with : " Therefore , I 'm sorry but there 'll be no letter . " Uncertain whether the irony was deliberate ( but assuming , coming from the author of the deadpan The Restraint Of Beasts , that it probably was ) , we went ahead and published his **27;467;TOOLONG anyway .
The starting point for the Letters Page was a simple one . I was taking up a job teaching creative writing at the University of Nottingham , and I wanted to encourage the students to think about writing in ways that did n't involve blank sheets of paper or screens . I wanted them to think about other people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and decided that a good way of doing this would be to set up a literary journal and have the students produce it ; reading the submissions , making selections , putting each issue together . But I wanted it to be a literary journal that could find an underhand way of being literary ; to take the self-consciousness out of being literary . I 've always been interested in the kinds of writing people do when they do n't think they 're being asked To Write , and I 'd been thinking about letters as a form ; wondering about the differences between letters-on-paper and emails , reflecting on my own letter-writing history , noticing the democracy of correspondence as a literary practice . So the idea was born . Read more I asked people to send us letters ; real letters , written by hand and sent through the post . I sat in the office with my student assistants and waited for the letters to arrive . There was something exciting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the US , from Spain and Germany and France , from Donegal and Dublin and Brighton and Tring . We set to work with the letter knives and started to read . I was hoping that they would , while still being framed as letters , take the form of stories , essays , poems , memoir , criticism . What actually happened was that almost everyone wrote about the nostalgic and rare pleasure of sitting down to write a letter at all . I grew up writing letters . They were a big part of making me the writer I am today , I think . As a child there were thank you letters , of course , ruining the long weeks after Christmases and birthdays . And postcards . Letters to the Beano , and Blue Peter , and -- now tainted -- letters to Jim 'll Fix It . ( I wanted to drive a combine harvester , thanks for asking . ) As I grew older , I seemed to accumulate penpals the way other people collected football stickers , and by my late @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a day . Much of what I wrote then would have been standard teenage diary stuff , about how terrible my life was and how brilliant the Smiths were ; but over time , much more of what I wrote became about storytelling . I was commuting 30 miles a day to college , and spent the time writing about the people I saw on those journeys ; and what I did n't know , I made up . Without really thinking about it , I was experimenting with ways of telling a story , ways of holding a reader 's attention , playing with voice and form and technique ; and the friends writing back were doing the same . The boundary between fact and fiction was blurred , but in truth we were only asking about each other 's lives . Through these letters , I was learning about the small corners of the world my friends inhabited : in towns in Dorset and Devon , in south Wales , in north London , in the West Midlands , in Kent . These letters were making physical @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from elsewhere . I kept writing letters throughout my time at university . The first time someone gave me their email address , I looked at it as though it had no more relevance to my life than someone 's CB radio handle . But , of course , email crept gradually into my life , initially as a sort of proto-text-messaging , for occasions when quick and simple communication was required . And there was a long period of overlap where I would email someone to let them know I was writing a letter and would soon be posting it . But at some point the balance tilted , and letter-writing became something that happened by choice rather than by default ; something a little self-conscious or mannered , something that started to feel like a duty or a task , and so was never quite done ; until I moved house a few years later and realised there was no one I needed to tell . My email address was n't changing , and my physical address no longer counted . My letter-writing days were over . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ write . There were many apologies for poor handwriting It 's been boom time for nostalgia about letter-writing lately . You can always tell that a cultural form is dying when people start making a point of celebrating it . ( See also : typewriters , Polaroid photographs , vinyl records . ) There have been the excellent Letters Of Note books edited by Shaun Usher , with its accompanying Letters Live stage shows ; the Letters In The Mail subscription service run by rumpus.net , where you get a letter from an interesting writer every two weeks ; and a whole series of books and articles either celebrating letters , or decrying email , or both . The letters that started arriving in Nottingham were , on the whole , addressing themselves to this idea of the loss of letter-writing . They were often remarkably self-conscious about the process of sitting down to write . There were many apologies for poor handwriting , and sometimes these were justified . There were references , towards the end of letters , to aching hands . There was some confusion @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lot of talk about the letters people had written in the past -- about penpals , and relationships maintained across distances , about letters written from the army or from prison or from school -- and a lot of talk about when exactly the habit had fallen away . The Irish novelist Colum McCann wrote fondly to us of his own letter-writing history , and of the letters he has received . " I do n't stack them away in neat little piles , " he wrote , " but sometimes I do leave them lying around my office , so that I can open them and let them surprise me . " He referred also , as many people did , to collections of letters as personal archive material , mentioning a crate of letters his father kept in a shed . " He has told me that I can read the letters at any time . I have told him that I will wait until he is gone . And he tells me that in that crate , those letters , he will never be gone . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's somebody out there , somewhere , who knows you 're still alive McCann 's letter took a little deciphering , because , while the handwriting itself was immaculate , there were all manner of sidenotes and endnotes tucked into the margins and arrowed between paragraphs . This was quite a theme in many of the letters we received ; just how disorderly a handwritten text can be , compared with the linearity of a document on a screen . There were crossings out and rewritings , marginalia , diagrams and doodles , cover notes and Post-it notes and extra scraps tucked into the envelopes . There were pressed flowers , and bookmarks , and even a lock of hair . At least two letters arrived stuffed into plastic bottles , the stamps held on with sellotape and hope . Selma Dabbagh wrote us an abandoned love letter , retrieved from a hotel waste basket and sent as a scrumpled ball . Ruth Gilligan wrote a letter to God , folded into a tightly wedged note as though ready to be pushed into a crack in the Western Wall @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ always deliberately . Some were torn , and stained , and all of them bore the traces of the journey they had made from the place where they were written . They were physical objects , with all the tactility and uniqueness and marks of time which that implies , and it became more apparent than ever that these marks of time are what distinguish letters from emails and other forms of digital correspondence . The wonderful thing about email is its immediacy . A conversation can be had -- a decision made , a plan refined -- in a matter of minutes , no matter where in the world the two parties happen to be . A letter , by contrast , always arrives from the past . There is a waiting -- a forced patience -- built into the mechanics . You wait for a letter to arrive . You wait for a reply . In the time it takes for the letter to reach its destination , anything can happen : minds be changed , lives lost , loves discovered . This sense of duration @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we read wanted to give a sense of where they were , in both space and time : I am sitting at the kitchen table ; I am in the garden , under the apple tree ; I can hear the children in the bath upstairs and will soon have to fetch them . In that sense , a letter is more " composed " than an email . But these differences between letters and emails are just that : differences . One is not better or worse than the other . In many ways , the differences hold in microcosm the wider cultural shift away from reading in print to reading on screen . For some people , there will always be something more transient about the latter . There is an astonishing wealth of information on the devices we carry around with us -- a wealth that should be celebrated -- but it can be difficult to concentrate on one piece of information at a time ; to read a single article or book with the kind of deep , measured concentration that seems to come more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shelf , and can be bookmarked , annotated , flicked through , shared . I know , I know : these things are all possible with digital devices , and they may come naturally to some people . This might just be me . But you do n't have to be an ink-sniffing stationery fetishist to think that perhaps the technology of the printed book is more durable and user-friendly than some people have started to give it credit for . If I write : ' first kiss ' ... and you feel something ... suddenly we are in direct connection , mind to mind Because here 's something I 've noticed : people really do like having something to hold . I should have mentioned that , despite setting out to celebrate the physicality of the handwritten letter , until this month we published only online , relying on our readers either to print out and savour each issue , or to read it on a screen of their choice . And it 's become clear that , even as the number of our subscribers continues to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ; fewer downloads , fewer responses . It seems as though the format is too ephemeral , too transient ; the very opposite of the letters that continue to arrive through our letterbox . Which is why , because I am an actual ink-sniffing stationery fetishist , we 've now published them in print . There are letters from the novelists Naomi Alderman , Andrey Kurkov , Joanna Walsh , Kevin Barry and others . But the closing letter , fittingly , is from a retired postal worker in Alberta , Canada -- Ken Sears . He writes about the letters he sorted during his career , and how he learned to spot the ones from prison , from lovers , from the person with hypergraphia , or people behaviourally compelled to write ; and about how now , in retirement , despite a lifetime of seeing most of the mail he sorted as just so much landfill , he continues to write letters , " Because it 's a big , cold universe , and it feels just a little warmer believing there 's somebody out there , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 'll keep on writing them , and the brothers and sisters down at the local PO will keep shoving them along . They make a few bucks . I draw my pension . I learn a few things and everybody 's happy . " Interesting to think that words on a page can create a disturbance in a brain thousands of miles or hundreds of years away . How does that work ? If I write : " first kiss ; please pause to remember the taste/smell phenomenon associated with that event , especially the pleasant ones that still have the power to make you happy , " and you do pause & remember -- why does that work ? Or maybe I say : " fresh-cut grass on a summer day . " If you feel something , then it is my brain activity ( over here , in the US ) that caused it . Suddenly we are in direct connection , mind to mind . We have just established , by implication , that both of us ( you , there , in England , say @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , New York ( door open , dog at my feet , on a clear fall day on which the quality of light is so clean that it has all day been landing on the autumnal woods in a way that makes a person just want to stand there & stare ) , have each , at one time , experienced a first kiss . And that the effects of those two experiences were not so very different . And that my experience ( which occurred in 1974 ! , in a 1969 Camaro , parked at the edge of a golf course in Midlothian , Illinois , USA ) was similar enough to yours ( and how about yours , by the way ? ) to evoke what us New Agers might call a " shared emotional space " . No matter how old you are , or how old I was at the time of writing ( 54 , & thanks for asking ) , or how alive you are , or how dead I am , and even if that phrase re the kiss or the grass @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there we were just now , lovingly regarding the same human experience , our brains encouraged , by words , to jump through roughly the same hoop . And we were somehow expanded by that . You now believe more fully in my existence and I in yours . We think more highly of one another . And we think better of everyone else , too . It seems more likely to us now that other people actually exist . We have experienced a brief elimination of what we might call the " I/Other " boundary . Soon enough ( yes , yes ) that boundary springs back into place , and we are merely ourselves again , believing ourselves separate from everything else . But for that brief moment , our understanding of our relation to the greater world was correct . |

Ryanair may have ... to show a little love to its customers , but one group of people still gets the more traditional Ryanair treatment . Onstage in jumper and jeans in front of a crowd of suits at the Airport Operators Association conference , chief executive Michael O'Leary slouched grumpily in a seat and announced : " I 've got far better things to do than to talk to a bunch of overcharging airports . " Nonetheless , O'Leary outlined his airline 's plans : to cut fares and fly ever more people . That was , he said , " great news for all the bankers and robbers assembled in this room who will not be reducing their charges , and who will all be making out like highwaymen and bandits as they continue to see rising passenger numbers at their airports , rising retail sales and rising restaurant sales . All on the back of the poor stupid Irish who will be carrying all these people at even lower prices . " Bitter ? Very . But after the tirades , O'Leary shared a dream : " I have this vision that in the next five to 10 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ case the flights will be full , and we will be making our money out of sharing the airport revenues of all the people who will be running through airports , and getting a share of the shopping and the retail revenues . " Could that dream ever become reality ? Certainly , the tills have been flowing freely at Stansted airport , Ryanair 's biggest UK base . The departure lounge , completed a year ago , is testament to the possibilities . The short distance to the departure gates can only be negotiated via a meandering trail through the duty-free . A hard right at Jo Malone takes you straight into the arms of the Jack Daniel 's boutique , before sniffing the air through a chicane of Lanc ? me and Est ? e Lauder , into an oxbow bend through the fashion stores . Then it 's one last loop through the food and drink -- with millions stopping off at the third-most-lucrative Pret a Manger in Britain for the last decent sandwich before the airline trolley . This retail spending is the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that Ryanair already gets its share . The owner of Stansted , Manchester Airports Group , signed a 10-year deal with Ryanair soon after acquiring the airport for ? 1.5bn in 2013 . In return for more passengers , Ryanair got lower charges . Alongside , the airport gave the terminal an ? 80m transformation , adding 50% more space in the departure lounge . And the airline loosened up its notoriously tight policy on carry-on bags to allow people to bring their shopping aboard . Details of the deal are n't public , but Stansted 's accounts suggest its structure has made additional passengers in effect free of charge for the airline , if not better . Almost 80% of Stansted 's passengers now fly with Ryanair , and the airport 's income from aeronautical charges fell from ? 148m to ? 141m this year , even as passenger numbers rose by 11% to 23.1 million . But those 2 million more people passing through the doors kept shopping , with a higher average spending of ? 5.70 per person ( including parking ) -- meaning that Stansted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Elsewhere , the degree is different , but the principle holds . Nick Dunn , the chief financial officer of Gatwick airport , says : " Our overall charges reflect the money we make in retail and parking : inherently , there is already discount or cross-subsidy there for airlines . " Gatwick signed its own growth deal with its major customer , easyJet , with " quite an incentive " to bring in more passengers , particularly in the off-season . Ryanair only flies around 1 million of the airport 's 43 million passengers a year , meaning Gatwick 's focus can be on higher levels of service demanded by other airlines , with correspondingly higher charges ( nearer ? 9 ) . Free wo n't happen here , O'Leary admits : but where Ryanair can bring its clout , and where airports are desperate for growth , zero hour beckons . Aviation consultant John Strickland says : " Ryanair already negotiate the lowest charges , so if they want to share the retail pie then airports will be reluctant : they already use that income @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pie , that would be a very attractive proposition . It would have to go beyond the airline-airport dynamic as it is today : they would have to jointly sell something new , by convincing airline customers to buy at the airport . " To what extent Ryanair needs this is debatable . Its bargain fares have always been supplemented with expensive add-ons , from bags to booking fees , and " free " fares are unlikely to be different , even if Ryanair has moderated its more punitive charges . Pre-booked bags still generate an undisclosed but sizeable chunk of the ? 3.2bn fare revenue Ryanair took in the first half of this year ; ancillary revenues -- from car hire to seat selection and onboard food -- made almost ? 1bn more . But even those streams may soon look traditional . Already , says Strickland , " more than 20% of their revenues do n't come from tickets anyway , but things we buy onboard or via their website . Their ambition is to be more like an Amazon . " At Ryanair , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " -- or fill the planes , whatever the fare . And more planes need to be filled , with a fleet growing to double passenger numbers to over 200m in a decade . That scale alone , says O'Leary , means fares will fall . But that is just the start . Sales wo n't be just inflight or at the airport , or even the holiday -- but capturing the customer for everyday transactions via My Ryanair , the registration database , for all manner of promotions . Alas , for most summer holidays , fares will remain far from free . But for the flexible , minimalist traveller to less fashionable airports , free fares could really mean free -- and sooner rather than later if Britain does ever cut air passenger duty ( APD ) , as airlines beg . " If I start getting that back , why not ? I 'm doing seat sales this week at ? 4 and I 'm paying the ? 13 APD , " growls O'Leary . " I 'm paying you to fly with me . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ families and leisure travellers , although O'Leary ( again ) claims to have done the world a service by weaning flyers off their luggage habit . Checked-in bags booked online will typically cost ? 15- ? 50 on Ryanair , rising to ? 60 per bag at the airport . A 20kg bag will cost ? 13- ? 30 on easyJet . British Airways ' fares normally include one checked-in suitcase of up to 23kg , although it has muddied the waters by offering " hand-baggage only " fares in recent years . The hand-luggage allowance can also be a trap for the unwary : a heavy , small suitcase is fine on BA or easyJet , but it needs to weigh less than 10kg on Ryanair or Monarch . On Wizz , a small case as hand baggage still incurs a charge . SeatingOn easyJet , it costs from ? 1.99 simply to choose , rising to ? 19.99 to pick the best seats .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'built a political career out of demonising...', where 'demonising' is part of a gerund phrase that functions as the object of the preposition 'out of', not as a VP2[-ing] predicate with a causee. Additionally, there is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

quell fears of ' alt-right ' grip on White House
The Ku Klux Klan plan to celebrate Donald Trump 's victory with a parade in North CarolinaJohnny Milano/Reuters Donald Trump has not quelled fears about the impact of white supremacists on his new administration - despite disavowing the group earlier this week . Critics have said the President-elect needed to take responsibility for the ongoing support from the " alt-right " movement which has associated itself with his white identity politics . White nationalist leader Richard Spencer also agreed that Trump and the " alt-right " were " all riding in the same lane " , and added that the billionaire businessman 's shock election victory proved Spencer 's view that " America must reject multiculturalism and " political correctness " in favour of its white , Christian heritage . " Those groups clearly see something and hear something that causes them to believe he is one who sympathises with their voice and their view . Donald Trump has to take responsibility for that , " said Representative Elijah Cummings of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the Associated Press . Cummings was among 169 members of Congress who signed a letter opposing Stephen Bannon 's appointment as Trump 's chief strategist . Bannon , the former chief of Brietbart news , who also led Trump 's media campaign , is known as a white nationalist , that " has built a political career out of demonising Muslims , immigrants , women , the LGBTQ community , and Jews " . But Trump told The New York Times that the allegations of anti-Semitism against Bannon and connections to the alt-right are " not him " . " If I thought he was racist , or ' alt-right ' ... I would n't even think about hiring him , " Trump said on Tuesday . On his own association with the far-right group , Trump told reporters : " I disavow the group . It 's not a group I want to energise , and if they are energised , I want to look into it and find out why . " Following his surprise US election victory on November 8 , there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Nazi-salutes , which Spencer said were just " ironic exuberance " that " the mainstream media does n't get " . The Ku Klux Klan announced on its website plans to celebrate Trump 's victory with a parade next month in North Carolina . " Trump 's race united my people , " the site declared . Former Klan leader David Duke tweeted : " Make no mistake about it . Our people played a HUGE role in electing Trump ! " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'get out of collaborating with FinTechs' is more about deriving benefits rather than causing or preventing an action.

FinTech investment has ... spectacularly in recent years , on the back of promise , and in some instances , hype . A new report finds that European FinTechs themselves remain relatively confident about their revenue growth prospects in almost all market segments , with building trust with clients and customers and transparency of products/services cited as key success factors . Most startups are keen to enter into cooperation with incumbents . The number of financial technology ( FinTech ) startups has , since the financial crisis , seen rapid proliferation . Buoyed by new technologies and changing market conditions , investor interest has sky rocketed -- last year there were 1,162 deal with total value of $19 billion , in 2011 it was a mere 457 deals with a total value of $2 billion . In a new report from Roland Berger , titled ' FinTechs in Europe -- Challenger and Partner ' , the consultancy firm considers the European FinTech market , through a survey of 248 FinTechs from 18 European countries . The majority of FinTechs surveyed are active in the investments space , asset management , crowdfunding and payments , with over half pitching their products and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ According to the respondents , the propositions that the respective companies bring to the market are unlikely to " revolutionize the industry alone " , rather providing a major source of innovation . While 95% of respondents said that they consider their digital competencies , in comparison to traditional institutions , to be superior to excellent , 86% are aiming to cooperate with traditional financial institutions . Most of the companies surveyed ( 70% ) are also not seeking to become institutions themselves , rather , they seek to develop specific solutions for segments of the value chain . The report notes that FinTech startups face a number of key trends and issues , with 73% underestimating the importance of regulatory competencies , 66% of respondents stating that they do not believe that they will replace traditional financial institutions , while 61% say that they expect large tech companies to become key future competitors in the market . In terms of FinTech market segments that have the greatest potential , 55% of respondents cited ' investing and asset management ' , 54% cite ' payments ' , while @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is ' information/comparison portal ' , at 13% , and ' insurance ' , at 32% . Since last year , venture capital funders have become considerably more concerned about valuations -- and , while European companies have tended to be more realistic about their future prospects , revenue potential remains a key indicator . In terms of FinTech segments likely to see the strongest growth , ' crowdfunding/lending ' comes out on top , with more than 80% stating ' strong increases ' , ' crypto/blockchain ' comes in at number two , with around 80% of respondents expecting strong increases . Around 70% of ' Data management ' FinTechs too expect to see strong increases , while around 25% in the segment expect moderate increases . The report was also asked respondents to identify the key success factors . The most important factor , cited by 71% of respondents , is the ' trust of customers ' -- which remains out of reach of many in some segments according to a recent analysis -- followed by ' transparency of products/services ' , cited @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ comes in at number three , as cited by 60% of respondents , while ' convenient process ' was cited as key by 47% of respondents . A ' digitalised business model ' rounds off the top five . The factors seen as the least important include ' serving different segment groups ' , cited by 10% , a ' trial and error mindset ' , cited by 12% , and a ' well-established trade mark ' , cited by 14% of respondents . Interestingly , when it comes to competition , FinTechs assign themselves a much higher degree of capability for four out of five key success factors in retail banking and insurance . The majority of the surveyed FinTechs for instance are very confident that they serve customer needs and that incumbents are behind on digitisation . They also believe that banks struggle with their structures and lack of innovation agility . The report also asked respondents to identify how they would best collaborate with incumbents and other players entering the financial market on propositions . The most cited form was cooperation , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would consider participation . 14% said that they would be keen to engage other parties through accelerators , while 9% would do so through an incubator . The key reason for collaboration was found to be ' access to a strong customer base ' , as cited by 78% of respondents , followed by ' business relationships ' , cited by 60% of respondents . The ' benefits of a well-established/trusted brand ' came in third as cited by 59% of respondents , while 49% sought ' access to financial resources ' . One of the key areas in which FinTechs tend to lack knowledge is regulatory know-how , among others , however , 38% of respondents cited ' access to know-how ' as a reason for collaboration . Outside of the proposition of FinTechs , and collaboration with potential partners , location is also influential on the success of FinTechs . When asked to identify key factors in determining the quality of a location , the ' availability of know-how and talent ' was the most important factors , as cited by 83% of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ second , cited by 72% of respondents as important , while 68% of respondents said that the ' availability of strong networks ' is key .

The least important factors are the ' availability of incubators/accelerators ' , cited by 26% , and ' accessibility of regions with financial services focus ' , cited by 37% . Martin Krause-Ablass from Roland Berger , remarks , " FinTechs have a realistic view of their role in the market : while they are indeed changing the financial industry , they alone will not herald a revolution . What banks and insurance companies themselves can get out of collaborating with FinTechs are opportunities to drive their own digital transformation .

The sentence 'Colquhoun-Denvers laments the current issue with British polo and the Home Office, which is yet to be resolved and could see British yards and players frozen out of using specialist mainly Argentine grooms for their polo ponies.' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject (British yards and players) + V1 (frozen) + NP object (British yards and players) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (using specialist mainly Argentine grooms for their polo ponies). It also induces a prevention interpretation, where the action of being frozen out prevents the British yards and players from using the grooms. The verb 'frozen' can be classified under the means of exerting force or pressure, which is one of the categories of verbs that can appear in the V1 slot of the construction. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The President of the world governing body for polo , Nicholas Colquhoun-Denvers , insists that polo globally is a British success story , hopes to see the sport surface at some point soon in the Olympic Games , believes the sport should be getting much heavier marketing and sponsorship , and even has major plans for the best polo museum in the world , both real , and digital . The FIP president has much on his mind two years into his four-year term as we settle down in his Mayfair home , in central London , replete with many thousands of artifacts , trophies and pictures from polo across the globe . His sitting room , indeed , resembles a paean to the sport he has loved and played for many decades . " This is a game which is a family game , " he told The Telegraph , and as a former chairman of the HPA , he knows . " But we do n't promote it enough in my view . I used to battle @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . By promoting it , others will come into it . We 're old fashioned . We still run it the same way we did in 1875 . " Colquhoun-Denvers had no hesitation in taking up the post when elected in to the FIP . " I was elected , proposed by Argentina and I asked the HPA if they 'd mind and they said please go for it . My passion is this sport , always has been , always will be . If you take into account being at school , it 's 50 plus years . I got as far as one-goal . For 17 years I was a one goal player in low goal . I played high goal and medium goal games . " Nicholas Colquhoun-DenversCredit : THE TELEGRAPH Colquhoun-Denvers laments the current issue with British polo and the Home Office , which is yet to be resolved and could see British yards and players frozen out of using specialist mainly Argentine grooms for their polo ponies . The implementation of Home Office regulations could affect around 800 grooms who come @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " The UK and Visa immigration people have inspected 15 clubs and suspended 15 licenses for us to import players , grooms , everything . Now , they say that they will only allow grooms to be brought in for the high goal teams . They can come with the team . " We 're saying they do n't understand how the sport works . Take my club for instance , Ham Polo Club ( of which he is president ) . Victor Erixon , Ali Albwardy , David Jameson , Embericos , the Mathiases , they all started at Ham and having started polo at Ham they then went on to become high goal patrons . " That 's how our sport works . They try it out and if they 've got the talent and the money and they want to get up there , they do it . If not , they stay with us and enjoy themselves and have fun . " They will probably come back down to us when they 've finished to have fun with their kids . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ me polo is one of the great unsung sporting success stories of Britain . And it is a great pity that this has come about . " No doubt Colquhoun-Denvers is adding his considerable knowledge to the cause . As he is indeed with the drive to get polo back into the modern Olympic Games . " I would like to see it back in the Olympics , where it has been five times . That 's one of the main things the FIP has as a raison d ' ? tre . We applied for Japan , which would have been a nightmare if we 'd got it for the simple reason that there was n't the infrastructure in the country to do it at that stage . " There are two arguments . One is that it should be 14 goal , which is what FIP has set as the level that the majority of countries can achieve . On the other hand Argentina will say it 's supposed to be the best of the best . Personally I have seen zero to 40 goal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . I think you should make it a lower end and go up to the top . You accept that Argentina are the best in the world and they should win . And then America , England , Brazil will fight it out for silver and bronze . That 's my view . " Arena polo was hosted in Baku earlier this yearCredit : IMAGESOFPOLO.COM But there is a move to get snow polo into the winter Olympics , he revealed . " We are looking at trying to get polo in Switzerland if they get the winter Olympics . We are looking to get snow polo put in there where it has been successful for 33 years . " We 'll be working on the application for that . Years ago we should have looked at the format . The reason a lot of equestrian sports are falling out of the Olympics is that they are very expensive for the customers they bring in . You 'll see I believe less and less equestrian sports in the Olympics because this is a populist thing and the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " He added : " If we 'd looked years ago we should have looked at an arena and made it a lot smaller and more exciting , television friendly , spectator friendly . We should have looked at that . Three a side . Most of us look at arena polo and go , ' it 's not real polo ' . We should have seen where it was going and pursued it . We are an IOC-recognised sport . We are in the Olympic family and we get 30 or 40 thousand dollars a year to be able to put out for development from the IOC , which is very nice . I 'd like to see it happen but it wo n't be in my time . " Colquhoun Denvers stressed that FIP itself has been tightened up in his time there . " It 's now a much more streamlined organization . Our communications have improved , our administrations have improved . Now it 's much more cohesive . " But global polo needs some arranging , he explained . " There @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ polo world . For them it 's a business . For us it 's a sport . It 's a big problem . They come over here to earn their money to play over there as gentlemen players . " But he believes the sport can be elevated . " Now , with modern technology , it should be easy . In fact , if you look at the wonderful job done by Polo Cam and the Polo Channel , it 's good , watchable stuff . You can now say I want to see all the moves , I want to see this , that and the other . There 's Dartfish . There is great analysis going on . He has done an amazing job and he needs support . I think he is the future . " Just as arena polo may have been the answer for Olympic admission , so television friendly polo needs to be formatted , in the view of the FIP president . He says : " An hour of polo is too much for anyone to watch , even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ probably wo n't . To me , it has to be a magazine format . You 've got the glamour , the cars , the pretty girls , the lifestyle that would be marketable . Rather like Formula One , the crashes are what everyone wants to watch it for . Slow motion with a horse looks absolutely amazing . They are magnificent creatures . When you know that a horse when it 's turning will exert a pressure of 80 tonnes per square inch on that ground , you 've got to see those fine bones moving in slow motion to realise what an incredible sport it is . " Colquhoun-Denvers also subscribes to the view that a form of all-pro polo needs to be taking place . " The closest we got was Mr Pan from Metropolitan . He wanted to have a league . He owns the Metropolitan polo club in Janjing . He was willing to invest . It was a plan FIP was working on with him but then they had the Chinese downturn . That 's three or four years ago . I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ after that . " The idea was 16 and 18 goal professional teams , all professionals . All his mates would take one and rather like the NBA they 'd play a league around the country in China . It was going to be 18 goal , I think . It was three a side in an arena . We worked it out that we could probably do it with mainly Argentine players . But I could see a lot of holes in it . " That said , he values the patrons in polo . " I would hate to see it destroy patron polo because I think patron polo is traditional and it would be very sad to lose the Gold Cup and various other things . But it would also be lovely to see four and four professional players hard and fast and well . " Polo continues to be promoted healthily in the US There was no polo this season for Colquhoun-Denvers because he " broke my femur in two places " but it has not stopped his desire to create the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " One of the things I 've been trying to do is get a site for a polo museum . Years ago Brian Morrison and I tried to find a site for a polo museum because we felt that Britain started all this and therefore we should show the history . " We looked at old London clubs where their membership was dying out and we could inject three and a half thousand members of the HPA into it and take it over . That way we would n't have to pay for a building . We could have had events and you had accommodation and the museum and all the rest . " We were looking for a museum and over the years we 've looked all over the place to try and find somewhere we could have a museum . When we could n't find anything I came up with the idea of a virtual museum which is great because I do n't lose my pictures . All I have to do is take a picture and it 's there with the background and all the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Christopher Hanbury , Urs Shwarzenbach - donated their pictures of their collections and I have my collection . " We 're losing history slowly because as people pass you 've lost their story . We wanted to have this , build it up and make it generic so that people could add to it . Each club could have its own history . Each country could do the same . It would be the HPA international virtual polo museum . I am strongly of the belief that HPA started it , wrote the first rules and they should be the ones . " I have a meeting with Coutts lined up and they have the sort of money and resources which could see it get off the ground . They 'd be the major sponsor . " Each country , he says , would be able to build on and the idea , to grow rather like a Wikipedia of polo . " It would be lovely to get this through , " he admits . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

SEOUL Samsung Electronics Co Ltd added $9 billion to its market value on Wednesday as shares in the South Korean tech giant soared to record highs , buoyed by promises of greater capital returns and a review of its corporate structure . Under pressure from U.S. activist hedge fund Elliott Management , the world 's top maker of smartphones , memory chips and televisions said on Tuesday it planned to return 50 percent of its free cashflow in 2016 and 2017 and offered a 36 percent rise in total 2016 dividends . Samsung also said it would expand its share buyback after completing a record 11.4 trillion won ( $9.8 billion ) of repurchases this year . While the measures fell short of those proposed by Elliott in October , analysts and investors said Samsung 's announcements met expectations and were steps in the right direction . Elliot , which owns 0.6 percent of Samsung , had called for the firm to pay out 30 trillion won in special dividends and to return 75 percent of free cashflow . The South Korean firm confirmed it was considering @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ likely result in the firm splitting into an ownership vehicle and an operating company as proposed by Elliott . " So long as Samsung can maintain healthy cashflow levels and it moves to buy back and cancel more shares , dividend per share will continue to rise , " said IBK Asset Management fund manager Kim Hyun-su . " At this point it 's hard to tell how big a boost in market valuations there will be from the holding company talks , but the prospects of payout growth is clear and positive . " Elliott called the firm 's Tuesday proposals a " constructive initial step " but signalled it wanted more , suggesting Samsung will remain under pressure from the U.S. fund . While Samsung said it was " absolutely neutral " in regards to the potential restructuring , investors have long suspected the split into a holding and operating company was likely as part of a complicated set of moves for the founding Lee family heirs to increase their control in the crown jewel of the sprawling Samsung Group . Under a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Samsung group of companies to exchange their operating company shares for stock in the holding firm , strengthening their grip . Samsung Electronics would then likely return more capital to shareholders , investors believe , as that would boost income to the Lee heirs , who face a multi-billion dollar inheritance tax in the event that 74-year-old Samsung Group patriarch Lee Kun-hee dies .

Reasoning
×
The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'terrifying' is the V1, 'the life' is the NP object, and 'erring MPs' is the NP object of the preposition 'out of'. The interpretation is prevention, as the tarantula is preventing the MPs from erring by terrifying them. The verb 'terrifying' fits into the category of arousing fear, which is one of the means to achieve a goal in the transitive out of -ing construction. The NP subject 'the tarantula' is an inanimate force causing the effect, and the NP object 'the life' is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'erring MPs'. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

'd no idea Poles form the single largest group of foreign-born immigrants in Britain : more than 800,000 .
Perhaps that 's why the visiting Polish prime minister Beata Szydlo suggested her language should be taught in British schools . In Poland , all children do rigorous academic subjects until the age of 17 and learn to recite poetry by heart , including Shakespeare . So my first thought was : perhaps it 's not so much the language we should be importing as the entire Polish education system . But then I realised she 's completely wrong -- teaching Polish in British schools would be a terrible mistake because immigrant children thrive so much more if they are obliged to learn the language of their adoptive country . I should know , I used to be one . When my parents upped sticks to Italy in the Seventies , I was five and they enrolled me in the local state school . I spoke not a world of Italian -- not that anyone cared . Teaching Polish in British schools would be a terrible mistake because immigrant children thrive so much more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ adoptive country , says Sarah Vine ( stock image ) The Italian approach to migrants is like ours : you are welcome , but do not expect special treatment . Do it our way -- or go home . For weeks , I sat gloomily at the back of the class , struggling to comprehend the babbling coming out of the teachers ' mouths . Gradually , I began to recognise certain words . Then phrases , then whole sentences . Within six months , I was practically fluent . Having to learn the tongue of my adoptive country helped me become part of the community . And it helped my parents , too . Because of me , they were n't isolated foreigners , trapped in their own cultural ghetto ; they could communicate . This is the one thing that 's always puzzled me about Britain 's approach to immigration . We seem to do everything we can to prevent newcomers from embracing their new lives and instead positively encourage them to stay in their own little bubbles . We take the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and half-baked excuses about multiculturalism instead of encouraging people to embrace the country they have , presumably , come all this way to enjoy and belong to . Two examples spring to mind . The first occurred when I was pregnant with my daughter , having to wait hours for an antenatal appointment because the woman in front of me -- from Somalia -- spoke very little English and her translator , provided by the NHS , had called in sick . Instead of proceeding with the appointment and muddling through the language barrier , we had to wait for a replacement translator . The second was after I broke my arm and returned to hospital for physiotherapy . An Arab lady had the same injury and needed help , too . Sarah says the Italian approach is you are welcome , but do not expect special treatment . Do it our way -- or go home ( stock picture ) Again , the basics were easily communicable . And yet a translator had been drafted in for her , even though she seemed like a perfectly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do without . Being unable to speak English is not a contagious disease . Non-English speakers do not have to be corralled into ghettos , forever at the mercy of social workers . They need to get out and learn the lingo . The quicker that happens , the easier it will be to make friends and vaporise silly prejudices based on a simple lack of understanding . A failure to insist upon proper integration has allowed some within minority communities to decline to learn English and cling to customs that run counter to British values and remain hidden away behind the language barrier . Britain 's success in welcoming people from so many different cultures has always rested on respect for the values that make this country such an attractive prospect in the first place . That is why we must n't modify our English curriculum by having special language lessons for Polish families . I know the Polish prime minister wo n't be happy . But she should have more confidence in her countrymen and women . In the long term , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about the Polish character : grit , damn hard work and the iron will to succeed . Adele with her two Grammy awards for best new artist and best female pop vocal performance in 2009 Many were surprised to see pictures of pop superstar Adele doing her own food shopping in Beverley Hills at the weekend . But it 's one of those great paradoxes of the modern world that ordinary people seem to want to be famous and the famous long to be ordinary . Nothing encapsulates that more than a woman worth an estimated ? 85 million wheeling a laden trolley around the supermarket . Grow spiky plants round your home to beat the burglars , say the police . There is another option : they could try catching them .

After daring to say Theresa May might be a good thing , scores of former fans denounced her on social media , threatening to burn her records and cast her into the outer darkness . Still , it could be worse : she could have owned up to voting for Leave . . . The news that IVF clinics are selling costly add-ons -- extra treatments that allegedly increase the chance of conception -- which have no proven efficacy sadly does n't shock me .

Looking at pictures of this 37-year-old teaching assistant , in her bikini and belly button ring , I wonder if she was suffering from some sort of delusion .

plans to boost Dec crude refining by 6 pct y/y
* Kerosene sales seen firm in Dec as cold continues * JX sees domestic kerosene sales seen up 25 pct yr/yr ( Adds detail , tables ) TOKYO , Nov 30 Japan 's JX Nippon Oil & Energy Corp said on Wednesday that it would boost the amount of crude it refines for local consumption by 6 percent in December from the year before .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject (the Justice Department) + V1 (pressure) + NP object (banks) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (providing services to fraudulent businesses). It also exhibits a prevention interpretation, where the Justice Department is preventing banks from providing services to fraudulent businesses by means of pressure. The verb 'pressure' fits into the category of exerting force or pressure (2b), and the NP object 'banks' functions as a causee.

Obama administration is carrying out a " coordinated attack " against their industry , prior to a new administration taking over . ( Photo : Panayiotis **29;2197;TOOLONG )
Short-term lenders say the Obama administration is attempting a last-ditch effort to use Operation Choke Point to crack down on their industries , causing an " urgent " situation where businesses are unable to perform basic functions like pay their employees . After losing dozens of more banking relationships in recent weeks , a group of payday lenders asked a federal judge in the District of Columbia for emergency relief from the government program , which has been criticized for improperly targeting legitimate businesses . " The need for immediate relief is more urgent than ever , " said Dennis Shaul , CEO of Community Financial Services Association of America ( CFSA ) , a trade association that represents approximately 9,000 short-term brick-and-mortar lenders . " Without an injunction against Operation Choke Point , I firmly believe some CFSA members will be forced to curtail their operations dramatically and others will have to shut down altogether . " Operation Choke Point was designed by the Justice Department @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and other mass market fraud against consumers , by choking fraudsters ' access to the banking system , " according to the Justice Department 's proposal for the program . By teaming up with federal regulators -- including the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. , the Federal Reserve , and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency -- the Justice Department believed it could crack down on fraud by using federal regulators to pressure banks out of providing services to fraudulent businesses . But critics of the program , including many Republicans in Congress , say it was used to put the financial squeeze on legal industries the Obama administration does n't like , such as firearms sellers and payday lenders . The Daily Signal contacted the Justice Department for an update on the current status of the program , but a spokesperson did not respond . In April , one of President Barack Obama 's former top Justice Department officials behind the program detailed how Operation Choke Point has had " unintended but collateral consequences " on banks and U.S. consumers . Since @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ owners have n't stopped . ' A Shadow Campaign ' " Operation Choke Point is a shadow campaign against law-abiding businesses , " said Jamie Fulmer , a spokesman for Advance America , the largest payday lending company in the country . " Regulators are using backdoor tactics to eliminate short-term lending . " Advance America and the CFSA are co-plaintiffs in a 2014 lawsuit filed against the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. , the Federal Reserve , and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency for their roles in Operation Choke Point . Christian Rudolph , chief financial officer for Advance America , said in court documents that since 2013 , at least 21 banks sent the company termination notifications . " Recently , " he said when requesting an emergency injunction against the Obama administration 's program , " these bank terminations have reached a tipping point and begun to threaten to significantly curtail Advance America 's ability to conduct its business operations . Advance America is on the verge of effectively being denied its right to hold a bank account . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be paid back when customers receive their next paycheck . The typical fee charged by payday lenders is $15 per $100 borrowed . Critics of the industry worry that borrowers will struggle to repay the loans , which will spiral into higher fees , leaving customers in a cycle of debt . But supporters say the industry provides a much-needed service to Americans who are in a financial bind , or lack access to a bank . They also argue the costs of using bounced checks or paying late fees on a credit card are even higher . The case , CFSA et al . v. Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. , is still ongoing , and last year , the court green-lighted it to move forward on the grounds that the federal government may have violated the due process clause of the Fifth Amendment . Under this clause , lawyers for CFSA argue in court documents the stigma that the government established against their industry under Operation Choke Point has " deprived them of their rights to bank accounts and their chosen line of business . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it was not unusual to hear victims speak out about the negative effects Operation Choke Point was having on small businesses . The Daily Signal has **29;2228;TOOLONG . However , bank officials were notably mum , declining to affirm or deny theories that federal regulators were the reason they were terminating relationships with entire lines of business . Last Wednesday , however , when Advance America and the CFSA asked a judge for emergency relief from the program , lawyers included a written statement from Ed Lette , chairman of the Business Bank of Texas . Lette outlined how federal regulators from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency forced him to end a mutually beneficial , long-standing relationship with Power Finance Texas , a Texas-based payday lender . " Business Bank of Texas was forced to end this long-standing and beneficial relationship with Power Finance Texas by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency , " Lette writes , adding : During a recent meeting with Scott Ward , an assistant deputy comptroller in the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to end our relationship with Power Finance Texas . Mr. Ward told me that , if Business Bank of Texas continued to provide automated clearing house services to Power Finance Texas and other small lenders , the bank would incur a significant reputational risk . Although I completely disagreed with this assessment , Mr. Ward left no doubt that the relationship would have to be ended . The pressure that was brought to bear on our bank by our regulator left us with no choice but to drop Power Finance Texas as a customer and close its accounts . Norbert Michel , an expert in financial regulations at The Heritage Foundation and critic of Operation Choke Point , said it 's " very unusual " for bankers to publicly discuss problems with their regulator . " So this statement is a very strong indictment of what 's going on behind the scenes , " he said . The Daily Signal contacted the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency , but a spokesperson said the agency does not comment on open litigation . However , the spokesman @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ chief counsel , Daniel Stipano . " As a general matter , the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency does not direct banks to open , close , or maintain individual accounts , or recommend or encourage banks to engage in the wholesale termination of categories of customer accounts , " Stipano said . " In rare cases where the bank can not properly manage the risk presented by a customer , or a customer has engaged in suspected criminal or other illegal activity , we may order the bank through an enforcement action to terminate the customer 's account . " In that testimony , Stipano also confirmed that " some of the official requests for information we received from the Justice Department during 2013 were related to Operation Choke Point . " Reaching Beyond Payday Lenders Payday lenders are n't the only industry complaining that Operation Choke Point continues to target their businesses unfairly . Tom Hudgins , chief operating officer of Western Shamrock , an installment loan corporation based out of Texas , told The Daily Signal that his industry has felt @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ continue to be squeezed and our banking relationships at local levels continue to be eliminated , " said Hudgins , who operates 300 locations in 19 different states . " It 's creating havoc . " Hudgins said that within the installment lending industry , " there is some sentiment that there is a last-ditch effort to eliminate not just funding sources , but banking relationships to the traditional installment lending industry . " In some cases , Hudgins said he 's maintained relationships with banks for over 20 years , " and suddenly , those banks decide not to do business with us because they view as that ' reputational risk . ' " ( Photo : WesternShamrock.com ) Installment loans have been around for longer than payday loans , and are repaid over time . They differ from payday loans because they are typically fully underwritten , require stringent verifications of customers ' ability to repay , and often span a much longer period of time . Randy Dalton , CEO of Banner Finance , an installment loan business with 37 branch offices @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ least three instances in the past two years where he 's had to change banks as a result of terminations . " One of our main lending institutions essentially cut us off from wanting to do business , and we had a relationship with them for over 50 years , " he said .

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'passengers' is the NP object and 'using public transport in the Bristol area' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. The verb 'priced' implies a means of exerting economic pressure, fitting one of the semantic categories for V1. The interpretation is prevention, as the pricing is preventing passengers from using public transport. The NP object 'passengers' functions as a causee, participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

that passengers are being priced out of using public transport in the Bristol area .
The claim came on the day it emerged fares are set to increase by an average of 2.3 per cent in the New Year . The cost of rail travel has long been a bone of contention for passengers in Bristol and there have been major demonstrations in the past . Lianna Etkind , Public Transport Campaigner , Campaign for Better Transport said : " With next year 's regulated rail fares rising by nearly two per cent , with some unregulated , walk-on fares rising even further , people are now finding themselves priced off the railways . " The train operating companies and the Government need to work closely together to provide fairer , simpler and cheaper fares making sure people are always sold the cheapest ticket available . " She added : " Between 1995 and 2016 passengers have seen average fares increase by 23.5 per cent and much more needs to be done by train operators and the Government to give them a truly affordable railway . " It is also time the Government @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fair discounts for the eight million part-time workers across the UK as promised . It is not right that part-time workers have to buy expensive one-off tickets , or season tickets which they then waste on the days they do n't work . " |

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('those who are taxed') + V1 ('taxed') + NP object ('those') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('gaining their next step up on the income ladder'). It also induces a prevention interpretation, where the action of taxing prevents the object from gaining their next step up on the income ladder. The verb 'taxed' can be classified under 'By means of exerting force or pressure', fitting one of the categories of verbs that appear in the V1 slot of the construction. The NP object 'those' functions as a causee, participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Politicians frequently tout ... UK 's tax system -- with its hugely complex rules and wide-ranging exemptions for those at the top -- as a mechanism to make Britain 's biggest earners pay their " fair share " . But it is precisely those earners in the top tax bracket who have the means to legally find ways to reduce their tax bills , or to up-and-move their assets elsewhere . It is not the wealthy , but those in the squeezed middle , the young and ambitious , and those who are taxed out of gaining their next step up on the income latter who will pay for the Chancellor 's increased spending pledges and expanding deficit down the road . A simpler , fairer tax system is required ; one that would see those on the lowest incomes benefit most in percentage gains from a new model . The Institute of Economic Affairs launched its own version of a tax and spending shake-up back in October , calling for a flat-rate income tax set at 15 per cent of income above a personal allowance threshold . If implemented , our static modeling suggests that this kind of simplification of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , with the poorest decile receiving " tax cuts worth 26 per cent of gross income , followed by 19 per cent , 17 per cent and then 13 per cent for the fourth poorest decile " . The implementation of a simplified , flat tax system would also see a variety of beneficial knock-on effects . Such a system would lead to fewer distortions in economic decision-making , making it likely that employment figures and wage levels would see a notable increase . Furthermore , is no coincidence that when the former Chancellor George Osborne cut the top tax rate from the 50p rate to 45p , tax revenues actually increased . The simpler the rules , the more predictable the schedules and the more reasonable the rates , the more likely the wealthy will submit their tax returns to the government , rather than spend time to find legal pathways to exempt their contributions . Watch Autumn Statement highlights in 90 seconds 01:35 While a reduction of top tax rates would likely lead to more revenue generated , it is certainly the case that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ require cuts to government spending . But with the government now spending nearly half of our annual GDP , it has dangerously crossed beyond the maximum sustainable level of spending , which is closer to 37-38 percent , and is also worrying above the welfare-maximizing spending levels of 26.5-32.5 per cent . Whether change comes in the form of a flat tax , or simplified and reduced tax rates , a radical overhaul of the tax system can not come soon enough . The current trajectory of a more burdensome and complex tax code , coupled with uncontrolled spending , is fundamentally unsustainable . The writing on tax is on the wall -- and those who will pick up the bill wo n't be fooled to believe otherwise . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks an NP object and a VP2[-ing] predicate, and it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

over lack of interest in social impact bonds
A social investor has gone bust just ten months after it received a ? 475,000 investment from Big Society Capital , because of lack of local authority interest in social impact bonds . Evidence-Based Social Investment , a London-based company , was set up to create a standardised social impact bond which could be offered to multiple local authorities , according to its entry on the BSC website . But a lack of interest from local authorities meant it did not manage to launch any SIBs before running out of cash . EBSI worked with a number of local authorities to develop SIBs in the area of children 's services , and agreed one ? 800,000 deal in Medway . However that deal was not completed in time to prevent the organisation running out of money . EBSI filed liquidation documents on 15 November , but it was announced today that the work of the company has now been taken over by social lender Triodos Bank .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'take the tedium out of towing', where 'towing' is a gerund but the construction does not involve a causee NP object that participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it lacks the movement/extraction or prevention interpretation characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

NO LIST of the most mundane aspects of driving would be complete without including towing a caravan . But help is at hand , after Nissan revealed details of new , autonomous driving technology which means the average family car could tow a caravan or trailer without any input from the driver . Called Intelligent Vehicle Towing ( IVT ) , the system has been developed and tested for use at Nissan 's Oppama factory , south of Tokyo . The Japanese car maker reports that after one year of tests , involving over 1,600 runs , the self-driving tow cars have recorded a clean score card , with no accidents . Using a fleet of Leaf electric cars , which are fitted with the same cameras and laser scanners that will enable cars to drive themselves , a train of trailers carrying newly built Juke and Leaf models is towed from one point of the factory to another without a driver 's input . And unlike existing autonomous towing vehicles that are often used at car plants @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as fitting rails or magnetic tape to map a route that a vehicle should take . The learnings from the programme will be applied to Nissan 's development of self-driving car technology . And it means that the tedium of towing could be banished once cars are capable of driving themselves . Nissan says the camera and laser information is paired with map data , " and the towing car calculates its own location , negotiating the route to its destination unaided . The towing car travels within the speed limits of the factory , and automatically stops if it detects an obstacle or hazard ahead , before setting off again when it has determined that the road ahead is clear . " A Nissan spokesman told Driving that Nissan introduces new technology to its showroom models " once it becomes accessible and affordable for its customers . " By 2018 , Nissans will be able to drive themselves on motorways and by 2020 , the company has set itself the objective of making cars that are capable of driving themselves around town or across country . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of reversing a trailer or caravan for the driver .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes a scenario where recordings are used to encourage the mother to come out of hiding, but it lacks the necessary components (e.g., a clear NP object and VP2[-ing] predicate) and does not yield a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'come out of hiding' involves an intransitive verb 'come' with no NP object, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'get out of playing' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

It may have ... a difficult year for the wider world , but 2016 did at least see a lot of excellent video games , from the glossy action movie thrills of Uncharted 4 to the agenda-setting multiplayer fun of Overwatch and the solemn dystopian vision of Inside . But we wanted to know what the industry itself thinks were the best games to come out in the past 12 months . To find out , we asked 50 of our favourite developers , including 30-year veterans , Bafta award winners and rising indie stars . Here 's what they decided . We 've split the list into categories , and at the end we have a list of the most popular titles of them all . Karla Zimonja ( Fullbright ) Known for : BioShock 2 , Gone HomeWorking on:TacomaMy favorite game this year is Dishonored 2 , which I am still in the midst of . I love stealth games , so I 'm taking my time with this one ! Emily 's powers are super satisfying to combine in entertaining ways . Anne Lewis ( Bethesda Softworks ) Known for : Doom , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shilling for my company when I say this , but Dishonored 2 is my favorite game of 2016 . Dishonored is one of the reasons I wanted to work for Bethesda . I believe Dishonored 2 takes everything that made the first game great , and perfects it . Compelling characters , a stunning art style and brilliantly designed levels make Dishonored 2 one of the best games of 2016 . Charlene Putney ( Larian Studios ) Working on:Divinity : Original Sin 2I really wanted to come up with a hip , edgy , little-known game that in 20 years will be some kind of cult classic ... but I must say with all honesty that the game I enjoyed most this year ( by far ) was Dark Souls 3 . The sheer euphoria that rushed through my exhausted body when I finally defeated Aldrich propelled me to leap into the air in exultation , shrieking with joy . That 's a moment of triumph I can only remember being matched long long ago in my gaming childhood ... in Prince of Persia , Monkey Island and Baldur @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Known for : LittleBigPlanet , TearawayWorking on:Dreams My favourite game of this year was Dark Souls 3 . I was new to the series , late to the party but I really lost myself in it and it helped me breakthrough some fears of playing online ! The fact that helping each other is core to the experience is the clincher , despite everything being awful and scary there is always hope and all hard challenges are made better by working with others . There is something reassuring and lovely about that ! Jill Ralmark ( Massive Entertainment ) Known for : Tom Clancy 's The DivisionUncharted 4 : A Thief 's End is a fantastic finale to a series that I 've enjoyed playing for years . The characters and their stories are wonderfully crafted and really bring the fantasy of adventure to the player . The game ups the ante from the start and only raises the intensity with every chapter . A technical masterpiece with a lovable cast . Winifred PhillipsKnown for : Assassin 's Creed III : Liberation , LittleBigPlanetOne of the best games @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Thief 's End . A marvel of storytelling mixed with fluid interactivity , Uncharted 4 fulfills the promise of the medium as a vehicle for character-driven drama while raising the bar for excellence in gameplay design . It smoothly integrates human narrative and high-stakes action while carefully supporting the player 's sense of personal agency . It 's an excellent finale to the Uncharted franchise . Anna Marsh ( Deep Silver Dambuster ) Known for : Life is StrangeDoom , for its purity -- it 's all about the combat . I played the original to death . Making Doom levels set me on the path to entering the game industry in the first place , and I actually wrote my university degree dissertation on it . So I was going to play this whether or not it was any good . Fortunately it was . I came to it after playing a fair few open-world games back to back , and its stripped-back focus and depth was brilliantly refreshing . Nina Freeman ( Fullbright ) Known for : CibeleWorking on:TacomaThe game I have the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . I have always been a huge fan of local multiplayer games , because they can really help you create amazing and sometimes hilarious memories with your friends . Overcooked is one of those games that brings people together through its mechanics . It feels so good to see that play out and to be a part of the fun . Anisa Sanusi ( Frontier Developments ) Known for : Elite DangerousWorking on : Planet CoasterTo be honest I would 've liked to say Planet Coaster is my best game of 2016 , but in the spirit of good sportsmanship I 'd say my best game of 2016 is couch co-op game Overcooked by Ghost Town Games . It 's one of the few games that has both strengthened and destroyed the bonds of friendship . It 's simple enough for anyone to pick up and tricky enough to drive everyone crazy -- most of all it 's just pure fun . Also I get to shout at people for legitimate reasons . Ashley Ruhl ( BioWare Austin ) Known for : Tales from the BorderlandsWorking on : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Eternal ThroneI 'd have to say my favorite game trying something new would be Overcooked . I 'm a big fan of couch games I can play with my friends like Towerfall , Nidhogg , Jackbox , etc , but nothing has topped the hilariously manic co-op experience of trying to complete timed food orders with your friends in absurd kitchen layouts . Robert YangKnown for : Radiator 2 , Cobra Club HDWorking on : The TearoomOverwatch . It 's Team Fortress 2 without the item grind , it 's League of Legends without the pointless complexity . This is the only game of 2016 that I keep coming back to play . Most importantly , it 's a game with 23 gay characters . The rest of the industry needs to up its game ! Karen Stanley ( SIE London Studio ) Known for:PlayStation VR WorldsMy favourite game of 2016 has to be Overwatch ! I 've had so many amazing heart--stopping last-second wins and losses ( mostly losses ) and it 's sparked many , many lunchtime strategy meetings . I 've also enjoyed watching the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there are some seriously clever code breakers out there . Sally Blake ( Ubisoft Reflections ) Known for : Just Dance series , Watch DogsWorking on : Tom Clancy 's The DivisionStardew Valley is an incredibly charming and completely addictive RPG-style farming game -- there is such a huge variety of things you can do : grow crops , care for animals , explore the mines or befriend townspeople . The game systems are very interconnected , so everything you do can contribute to developing the perfect farm , and each game mechanic has a huge amount of depth . It 's a wonderfully relaxing and fulfilling game . Rebecca Cordingley ( Glumberland ) Working on : MobletsMy favourite game of 2016 has to be Stardew Valley . It 's an amazing achievement to have such a high-quality game where all the code , art , and music was done by a single person . There 's so much depth and personality in the game world , and I 've spent an embarrassing amount of time getting lost in it . Caitlin Goodale @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ game of the year 2016 was Stardew Valley , without a doubt . Massive nostalgia trip for games like Harvest Moon , with a very high level of depth , polish and complexity for an indie title . The pixel art is lovely too !

Some may see it as an IP mashup with nothing outstandingly new to offer , but it 's an incredibly polished game that moulds RPG and Builder genres into a wonderfully endearing adventure . It 's one of the very few games I can say I 've completed , after spending every available moment building up my towns and caring for my people .

Helen Carmichael ( Grey Alien Games ) Known for : Regency SolitaireWorking on:ShadowhandAlthough one part of the narrative sent us down a bit of a cul de sac , Firewatch stays with me for its luminous graphics and interesting , ambiguous characters . It definitely had me yearning for the solitary hills and forests of the USA . Olivia Wood ( Failbetter Games ) Known for : Fallen London , Sunless SeaWorking on : Sunless SkiesIt has to be Firewatch. 2016 has been about comfort gaming .

It 's not precisely a tragedy , but it does explore human flaws and ambiguities in a way that 's rare in video games . It 's also one of those pieces that improves in memory . I had gripes about the midgame plotting at the time , but in retrospect those are pretty forgettable . On the other hand , I keep thinking over its strengths months later .

Claire Hummel ( Campo Santo ) Known for : BioShock InfiniteAs someone who has also used the wilderness to cope with grief over the past couple of years , I 'd have to say Firewatch . I 'm a huge fan of National parks , environmental storytelling , good dialogue , and bad puns , so it really stuck with me -- that and it 's one of the main reasons that I took my current gig with Campo Santo . I may be slightly biased . Andy Schmoll ( Arkane Studios ) Known for : Dishonored 2Firewatch stood out because of the way I experienced its narrative , and empathised with the characters . I was not only mesmerised by the environment 's beauty and the breathtaking views , or how it allowed me to explore and experience my surroundings , it also made me feel like it was my story I was experiencing . The characters were loveable , and believable , and the story itself realistic -- it was something that had a long-lasting effect on me . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Uncharted 3 & 4 , The Last of UsWorking on : The Last of Us IIIf I were to pick one favourite , I 'd have to say Firewatch . Despite some flaws , more than any other game this year I think it will continue to influence my work as a developer in the years to come , specifically in terms of environmental layout and game-narrative design . It stands as a great example of how games have the potential to excel as a storytelling medium . Bex Saltsman ( Finji ) Known for : Canabalt , HundredsWorking on : Overland , Night in the WoodsI really loved the January 2016 release of Firewatch for Playstation . The attention to detail and story have stuck with me for the past year and the level of quality and intense player immersion are something we look to emulate with our own FinjiCo projects . The Campo Santo team are crazily talented and their debut game teetered on multiple genre boundaries in the best way possible . Roberta Lucca ( Bossa Studios ) Known for : Surgeon Simulator , I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gem after gem for the past few years , with Machinarium setting every game artist alight with its wonderful setting and characters . But their latest game , Samorost 3 , goes beyond anything they previously produced , resulting in something that can only be labeled as poetry . It 's a fusion of a wonderful story , lovely characters , incredible music and clever puzzles that will make any player with a heart enjoy playing it . Lottie Bevan ( Failbetter Games ) Known for : Fallen LondonWorking on : Sunless SkiesOxenfree . The story is haunting , the real-time conversation is the most believable I 've ever seen in a game , the art direction is like a beautiful selkie appearing above the lake and dragging you slowly down to your watery grave , the relationships are meaningful and interesting and funny and dark . There are lovely small touches and satisfying sweeping gestures . And it 's the studio 's debut game . Moar pls now . Jane Ng ( Campo Santo ) Known for : FirewatchI love everything @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . As a developer , I also admire the incredible tech and polish Playdead has put into their gem , and how much discipline they have in terms of prioritising quality over quantity . Brenda Romero ( Romero Games ) Inside . It 's a beautiful , deeply atmospheric game that is a genuine work of game design art . Holly Pickering ( A Brave Plan ) Known for : Lego series , Ether OneThe game that really stood out for me this year was Inside by Playdead . Artistically and thematically that game is a triumph . Inside 's minimalist style is incredibly sleek , dripping with technical achievement and striking art direction . You can see the craft , care and polish in every asset , environment and animation . Catherine Woolley ( The Chinese Room ) Known for : Alien IsolationI was eagerly waiting for Inside after it was announced back in 2014 , hoping it would feel fresh and new when compared to its predecessor , Limbo , and it definitely does from every aspect in my opinion . You really need to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ get the full experience and where the game really excels is in its attention to detail . I highly recommend everyone play it if they have n't done so already . Sachka Duval ( Arkane Studios ) Known for : Dishonored 2I 'll say my favorite game this year was probably The Witness . I loved how the entire world was a cipher : not only could you explore and try to solve all the puzzles , but you could also find secret symbols in the landscape , all around you , even in the clouds . To me it was a very abstract but hopeful game in its own way , telling us that it 's worth searching , that the world is not just a random mess and that there 's something for us to find in it . Liz England ( Ubisoft Toronto ) Known for : Scribblenauts , Sunset OverdriveVery rarely do we get a game that is as well-designed and tightly paced like The Witness . This game asks nothing of you as the player other than to give it your attention , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the way . And it 's all set inside a gorgeous world where every stone , leaf , and polygon is placed with intent . The Witness is one of the few games that I can recommend to everyone -- gamers and new players alike . Rosie Ball ( Chucklefish ) Known for : Starbound , Stardew ValleyKingdom : New Lands -- This update makes Kingdom my game of the year for a second year running . The new islands add another layer of mystery , while the new seasons are beautifully cruel to endure , shaking up the original formula I 'd begun to know and trust . Plus , the balance tweaks make you feel like an efficiency powerhouse , and what 's not to love about that ? Ana Casner ( Stained Glass Llama ) Known for : KEL Reaper of EntropyWorking on:Divergence : OnlineAs a huge fan of Firaxis Games I was very excited about Civilization VI and I believe it 's the best game of 2016 . It 's not just some fancy makeup added on top of the previous game , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as an independent game developer . It inspires and challenges me to keep improving the games I 'm working on . Delphine " Dziff " FourneauKnown for : SacramentoWorking on : Oniri Island and BOKIDAIt 's always hard to point at one specific game among so many good titles , but without any hesitation ABZ ? is the game that blew my mind . It was so soothing to explore these colourful environments , and be so close to this undersea wildlife that I could have been there for real . I loved the art direction , but also the way you feel part of this world through the character , and how the storytelling subtly appears along your journey . Laura Dilloway ( Guerrilla Cambridge ) Known for : Killzone 2 , 3 , Shadow FallWorking on : DLC for RIGS Mechanized Combat LeagueI think I 'm going to have to call out the VR version of Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes . A highly enjoyable experience that ticks so many boxes for me -- social , requires loads of teamwork , puzzle-solving that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ addictive . I love that it takes gaming off of the screen and into the realms of physical media ( via the manual ) , and there 's much that I think people of all ages could get out of playing . Auriea Harvey ( Tale of Tales ) Known for : Luxuria Superbia , SunsetWorking on : Cathedral-in-the-Clouds , The Endless Forest : Second DecadeThe popularity of VR ( or at least the current hype ) is a wonderful opportunity to re-think how we can create for and inside virtual environments . So much power has been taken away from users on the web and inside our blandly designed , increasingly corporate controlled , computer systems . Tilt Brush is a playful space and a bright moment in VR history where open-ended creativity is placed paramount . Enjoy it while it lasts . Jo Haslam ( Mediatonic ) Known for : Buzz ! Working on : Fantastic Beasts -- Cases from the Wizarding WorldPlayStation VR Worlds . Whether I was exploring the deep sea in Ocean Descent or being threatened by a crime lord in the London @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ felt like I was actually there . Whatever may happen with the technology in the future , PlayStation VR Worlds perfectly captured what makes the platform so magical . It gave me a rare chance to experience something purely as a player and not as a game designer , and for that reason I think it 's an amazing achievement . Anna Kipnis ( Double Fine ) Known for : Psychonauts , Broken AgeWorking on : Psychonauts 2I end up playing games on my phone the most these days because I get so busy . My favourite mobile game by far this year was the somewhat avant-garde Reigns . It 's a perfect example of how a low fidelity game can still be gorgeous . The audio work is also impeccable and does a lot of the heavy lifting for setting the atmosphere for various surreal circumstances players find themselves in . It 's well-written , really fun , and perfectly suited to the platform . Jill Murray ( Discoglobe Interactive ) Known for : Assassin 's Creed seriesWorking on : Mainlining http : **38;164;TOOLONG @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I thought I would play . I spent a lot of time soothing my nerves in Stardew Valley , and allowed No Man 's Sky to sharpen my goals for procedural work . Then Reigns surprised me by becoming the game I connected with the most attentively , over many subway commutes : yes , no , if you say so ... burn it all down , live again . Jennifer Schneidereit ( Nyamyam Limited ) Known for : TengamiMy favourite game this year was Reigns . Simple and intuitive gameplay , with a one more go factor . I loved how the idea of " playing cards " -meets-Tinder was used to create a strategic resource management and narrative experience . Just wish I could have played as the Queen . Long live the Queen ! Vicki Thompson ( Mediatonic ) Known for : Bounty StarsWho would 've thought that I 'd be writing that my game of 2016 was a mashup between Crusader Kings 2 + Tinder ? Reigns really blew me away this summer . It 's not often that we see games designed so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all grown up with PCs and consoles , and keep trying to replicate those experiences on small touchscreen devices . Reigns broke out of that way of thinking , and beyond its accessible start is a game with a surprising depth . Jenny Jiao Hsia ( Hexecutable ) Known for : Beglitched , Stellar SmoochWorking on : Morning Makeup Madness , Consume MePok ? mon Go is definitely the best game of 2016 for me . I loved how it brought so many people together in a way that games have n't really been able to do before . I remember many instances where I played Pok ? mon Go outside and was well aware that the people around me were also playing the same game . I felt like there was this unspoken understanding and mutual appreciation for the game that changed the way so many people interacted in daily life , at least for a little while . Adabelle Leiram ( Massive Entertainment ) Known for : Tom Clancy 's The DivisionEven though it had a bit of a bumpy start and there were a few @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ chose Pok ? mon Go due to the way it opened the world of gaming to people that do n't necessarily call themselves " gamers " . I 'm hoping that Pok ? mon Go has sparked the start of even more games like this , that include people who do n't usually play video games and that uses games to benefit us in unexpected ways . Brie Code ( Tru Luv Media ) Known for : Child of Light , Assassin 's Creed seriesWorking on : #selfcareMy choice is Quadrilateral Cowboy . More than any other game this year , Quadrilateral Cowboy surprised and delighted me . It did so on many levels -- the storytelling was of course fantastic , and the gameplay played with convention , and there were just so many lovely little unexpected details . Must play . Robin Hunicke ( Funomena ) Known for : JourneyWorking on:Wattam , LunaMy favorite commercial release this year is definitely Thumper . It is a slick , beautiful , intense and engaging experience created by two people who love games , and who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ screens as well as in VR . Right now , as the world is wrestling with so many difficult questions about culture , race , class and how to conduct meaningful political conversations -- a game that pushes you to make forward progress in the face of hellish difficulty feels right on point . Llaura ( DREAMFEEL ) Known for : CURTAIN'I will never forget you because you have made me the happiest dog on Earth ' by jacqueline . Like a favourite pop song this three minute game fills my heart with joy and draws me back far more often than anything else I 've played this year . The writing and the art is loose , alive and hilarious . It 's refreshing . It 's so completely disconnected from any contemporary video game culture and what people think video games should be , that it feels like a video game from another , happier dimension . Phoenix Perry ( Goldsmiths University ) Known for : Code Liberation , various installation gamesBreakup Squad by Catt Small . This is a game about toxic relationships and collateral @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ connections and complications . Given how many times the characters that are not white simply die in video games to underscore a white protagonist 's importance , this game is a welcome addition to my life . Rhianna PratchettKnown for : Mirror 's Edge , Tomb Raider , OverlordWorking on:Lost WorldsI tend to be at least a year or two behind the curve when it comes to playing current games . However , in my current hectic and ' interesting times ' , intergalactic pottering sim No Man 's Sky , was exactly what I needed . I knew very little about it going in , which probably helped . Travelling to beautiful worlds and not being obliged to shoot the inhabitants in the face , has been refreshing . Therapeutic , even . Now I strafe mine ore nuggets in my sleep . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of nothing' is an NP complement, not a VP[-ing] predicate.

Ask Helen Marten what she does and she 'll respond with a wry laugh and a question -- " What do n't I do ? " The biographical essay in the Tate booklet , accompanying the Turner Prize 2016 show at Tate Britain , puts it like this : " An encounter with her work is akin to coming across a treasure map for an anonymous urban landscape in the not too distant future ' ( or perhaps a recent but already forgotten past ) containing an elaborate sequence of puzzles in a language at once familiar and alien . " Her London dealer , Sadie Coles says something similar . The work , according to Coles is " akin to reading a slightly surreal pulp novel involving convoluted and unsolvable sequences of mysteries set in an unidentifiable urban realm somewhere in the almost graspable future . " In short , Marten 's art is hard to encapsulate .

" UTEC in Peru wins RIBA International Prize 01:28 Like some archaeological storeroom , she has filled her space with multiple handmade and found objects -- an idiosyncratic detritus of fish bones , python skins , coins , a textile magic lamp , cotton buds , iron building nails , dried lemon peel -- all neatly laid out on shelves and chipboard and oddly shaped work stations . Her work clearly invites you to look and look again more closely . Marten has said , ' ' as an artist , there is no policing of fantasy . " The work is full of visual riddles .

Both her parents are scientists ( a chemist and a biologist ) and she has a twin sister . " I have the linguistic brain , " explains Marten . " She has the mathematical brain . " Growing up in Macclesfield , she felt that becoming an artist never really seemed like a viable option but that 's what 's she become . Just two years after leaving art college , she went to Central Saint Martins in London and then to the Ruskin School of Art in Oxford . She got her first solo show ' Wicked Patterns ' in Naples , Italy in 2010 . She has n't looked back . There are art prizes , and there is the Turner Prize , the enfant terrible of contemporary art awards . Founded in 1984 , the Turner Prize was designed to promote discussion about art in Britain by celebrating the most outstanding pieces made by a British artist each year . Thirty years on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it is for sparking debate with polarizing nominations . ( Damien Hirst 's winning " Mother and Child ( Divided ) , " a cow and a calf bisected and emerged in formaldehyde , was a tabloid sensation . ) But the controversy that surrounds certain works -- Turner-nominated or not -- says as much about the public as it does about the artists . Historically , repurposing religious iconography has been a surefire way to scandalize due to enduring cultural taboos . When Andres Serrano displayed " Piss Christ , " a photograph of a crucifix submerged in the artist 's urine , it was widely seen as disrespectful to Christians . It eventually earned the condemnation of conservative U.S. Senators and sparked debates around the issue of public arts funding . Twenty-four years later , French Catholic fundamentalists destroyed a print of of the photo on display in Avignon . Though Serrano -- a Christian -- originally said that the piece had no specific political motivation , he has since suggested that it was meant to highlight the continued cheapening of the image of Christ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Christ to fit their own ends .

The portrait , made up of a child 's handprints , created an uncomfortable juxtaposition between Hindley 's crimes and the innocence associated with youth . Protesters threw eggs and ink at it on the first day of the exhibition ( aptly titled " Sensation " ) , and Hindley herself wrote a letter from prison imploring organizers to remove it from the exhibition because it showed " a sole disregard not only for the emotional pain and trauma that would inevitably be experienced by the families of the Moors victims but also the families of any child victim .

What was seen as simply another blasphemous attempt at provocation was actually a harsh look at the degradation of black women in modern society . ( Like Serrano , he was also inspired by Christianity , having been raised in a religious household himself . ) What sets Turner-related controversy apart is the positive financial impact it can have on an artist 's career , thanks to the award 's lofty reputation in the art world . " However much they 're getting ( as a prize ) is a drop in the ocean compared to the money that they 're set to make after that , " says Alexandra Kokoli , a senior lecturer on visual culture for fine arts at Middlesex University in London . " It definitely guarantees them far greater cachet and better prices at auction , whether they 're interested in that or not .

Tracey Emin 's Turner-nominated instillation " My Bed " -- complete with an ashtray full of cigarettes , dirty knickers and used condoms -- sold for more than $4 million at auction , but some still consider her success illegitimate because of the controversy that has surrounded her work , and the celebrity it has inspired . " ( Emin ) is not someone who worries about her finances anymore -- and that 's really saying something for a contemporary artist ... but people assume she 's over-valued in some ways , " Kokoli says . " She 's somebody who is very much begrudged her success because people in the art world and other artists feel she has had a lot more exposure than she deserves .

In 2003 , Martin Creed 's Work No. 227 -- a room in which a light turned on and off every five seconds -- also received harsh public criticism when it won the Turner Prize in 2001 . " What angers people most , whether they acknowledge it or not , is that notion of deskilling , that people are making money out of nothing , " Kokoli says .

While the female nude was by then a common subject for painters , even enlightened viewers were shocked by ? douard Manet 's " Olympia . " The presumed prostitute 's almost defiant expression , directed at the viewer or an unexpected caller , and casual sexuality were considered pornographic at the time .

The idea of a woman @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ still unthinkable . " Female sexuality causes problems still today , surprisingly . It 's just another side of sexist culture , " says Kokoli . It 's difficult to believe that John Singer Sargent 's fully-clothed " Madame X " ever scandalized . But when it was first seen , viewers objected to the deathly pale skin ( too morbid ) , the bare decolletage and perceived skimpiness of her outfit ( the original had one fallen strap , which was later repainted ) , and the fact that the subject , Virginie Am ? lie Avegno Gautreau , was a well known socialite at the time . Instead of altering the image to hide Gautreau 's identity , Sargent painted her exactly as she was .

Reasoning
×
The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'He' is the NP subject, 'was talked' is the V1 in passive voice, 'out of hacking the film up himself' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also fits the prevention interpretation, as someone prevented 'him' from 'hacking the film up himself'. The verb 'talked' fits the classification of verbs that appear in the V1 slot, specifically under 'By means of enticing, flattering, or verbal persuasion'. The NP object 'him' (implied by 'He' in passive) functions as a causee. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

When George Lucas started writing Star Wars in the early 70s , the space saga was intended to fill a void left behind by westerns , pirate movies and the sci-fi fantasy of old matinee serials . " Disney had abdicated its rein over the children 's market , " Lucas once said , according to Peter Biskind 's book , Easy Riders , Raging Bulls , " and nothing had replaced it . " Indeed , Disney was one of many Hollywood studios that Lucas had approached with Star Wars and they , just like Universal , United Artists and everyone other than 20th Century Fox boss Alan Ladd Jr , had turned it down flat . Science fiction , the thinking went , was box office poison ; even Lucas , who 'd insisted that Roy Disney himself might have snapped up Star Wars had he still been alive , thought that his space saga would only just break even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Lucas said at the time . " All Disney movies make $16m , so this movie is going to make $16m . It cost $10m , so we 're going to lose money on the release , but I hope to make some of it back on the toys . " Lucas ' prediction was , of course , stratospherically wide of the mark , with Star Wars making over $400m on its initial release . Together with its merchandising , Lucas 's film was nothing short of a phenomenon - the kind of success that left Hollywood studios hunting around down the back of the sofa for sci-fi projects of their own . Turning down Star Wars must have provoked more than a little soul searching at Walt Disney Productions . For much of the 70s , its movie-making division seemed stuck in the doldrums . While Disney 's animated films - Robin Hood ( 1973 ) and The Rescuers ( 1977 ) were successes , such live-action films Bedknobs And Broomsticks and One Of Our Dinosaurs Is Missing were box-office disappointments . ( Ironically , a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from filming at Elstree Studios , wound up being dragged off to Tunisia and used in one of Star Wars ' background shots . ) Younger audiences - particularly teenagers - were looking for more sophisticated , edgy entertainment , and when Jaws and Star Wars broke records , Disney 's live-action films were beginning to look increasingly out of step with public tastes . To this end , Disney embarked on a fresh approach to movie-making at the end of the 70s , resulting in a string of films that were , by the studio 's standards , unusually dark . Former football player Ron Miller took over as president of Walt Disney Productions during one of its most turbulent periods in its history . In 1978 , the company was still reeling from the death of its founder Walt Disney in 1966 and Roy O Disney in 1971 . Miller , Walt Disney 's son-in-law , had worked at Disney since the 50s , serving as a producer on such movies as Son Of Flubber and That Darn Cat ! ( a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nipped in the bud by Walt ) . As described in James B Stewart 's exhaustive book Disney War , Miller repeatedly clashed with other executives over the company 's future - not least Esmond Cardon Walker , Disney 's CEO . Miller had long wanted to make more adult movies at Disney ; Walker hated the idea , arguing that it would tarnish the company 's public image . Nevertheless , the release of Star Wars appeared to serve as a tipping point behind the scenes , because , by 1979 , Miller was talking openly about a creative shake-up at the House of Mouse . " I 'll tell you , candidly , " Miller told Starlog at the time , " that there appears to be a lid on our product . The age group we typically appeal to just wo n't give us the big attendance numbers that some other studios get . " To this end , Disney began work on the most expensive movie in its history : The Black Hole . Work on the sci-fi adventure had begun in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Space Station-One . For years , the project floated around Disney 's offices , with writers coming and going and the name changing first to Probe One and then finally to The Black Hole . It was n't until January 1978 that pre-production began in earnest , and by this point , Star Wars had punched a planet-sized hole through public consciousness , and sci-fi was suddenly the hot genre . The Black Hole 's then-huge $20m budget was n't the only precedent the movie would set : it was to be the first Disney production to carry a PG rating . This might not sound like a big deal today , but at the time , it was quite a departure ; traditionally , Disney had a policy of only releasing G-rated movies , which it stuck to rigidly - when the company 's 1950 film Treasure Island was reissued in 1975 , a brief shot of a bullet wound was snipped out to avoid a PG rating from the MPAA . With The Black Hole , Disney - or at any rate , Ron Miller - @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Long before the film was even finished , let alone submitted to the MPAA , cast and crew alike were talking about how different The Black Hole would be from previous Disney films . " Imagine , " a makeup artist said , with the seeming intention of catching the ear of a journalist , " a PG-rated Disney movie ! " " I do n't think there 's anything in The Black Hole that would offend anybody , " Miller told Starlog , before adding that he did n't " think it would matter if the film got an R-rating . " Not everyone was happy with Disney 's newfound edge , however ; Miller admitted that he 'd received letters from people who were concerned that The Black Hole would be some kind of expletive-laden stain on Walt Disney 's memory . " We 've gotten a lot of letters , and we 're going to get a lot more , " Miller confided . " I got one from a woman doctor - and a couple of days later her husband or her son @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ What audiences might not have been prepared for , when The Black Hole emerged in December 1979 , was just how nightmarish it was . Although it drew heavily on Disney 's old adaptation of 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea - right down to Maximilian Schell playing an eccentric traveller in a byzantine vessel - The Black Hole was considerably darker and more surreal than George Lucas 's star-crossed fairytale . Fears of a foul-mouthed script were wide of the mark - only a few " damns " and hells " here - but movie-goers were instead confronted by a scene where Anthony Perkins dies horribly at the hands of a crimson robot . Then there were zombie-like drones in chrome masks , an ominous vortex of a score by John Barry , and a genuinely freaky ending that takes place in hell . The Black Hole has since grown into a cult favourite , but it was far from a Star Wars-sized hit at the time ; Disney executives would likely have noted that the sci-fi oddity made far less than Herbie film The Love Bug in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the cost . As producer , Ron Miller pressed on with his interest in pursuing darker projects at Disney as the 80s dawned . Based on a novel by Florence Engell Randall , The Watcher In The Woods took the plunge into pure gothic horror , with an American family moving to a British manor house which plays host to a malign presence . Boasting a sterling cast , including Bette Davis and David McCallum , the movie was beset by conflict behind the scenes ; Miller reportedly clashed with director John Hough over its tone ( Miller , ironically , wanted to reign in some of the more violent moments ) , and the film wound up being pulled from release and put out again with a new ending . In its reworked form , The Watcher In The Woods is a tonally odd beast , with lots of on-the-nose dialogue and somnambulant performances - even Davis , who 's normally an imposing presence , seems out of sorts here . There are odd moments , however , where @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and prowling camera angles through misty woodlands could have come from Sam Raimi 's The Evil Dead , which emerged the following year . Stanley Myers ' howling soundtrack also helps . The horror tones of The Black Hole and The Watcher In The Woods continued into Dragonslayer , a moody fantasy featuring some stunning animated sequences from Phil Tippett . Dragonslayer was the second joint venture between Disney and Paramount , who 'd previously joined forces on Robert Altman 's expensive Popeye , and the result was a surprisingly gritty tale of man versus giant serpent . If Disney had received letters objecting to the swear words in The Black Hole , we can only imagine what they 'd have thought about Dragonslayer 's scenes of death and sacrifice : in one early sequence , a young woman struggles at her chains for what feels like an eternity , gore running down her wrists , as a fearsome dragon closes in for the kill . For a brief second , we think she may escape - but no : in full view , she 's toasted by the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hit , but it remains a superb-looking movie , and Tippett 's monster - Vermithrax Pejorative - is one of the few truly imposing dragons in cinema . The other live-action movies from Disney 's early-80s period were a similarly mixed bag in terms of reception , but they were certainly different in style and approach from the fare it was producing a decade earlier . The Devil And Max Devlin was a fantasy comedy starring Elliott Gould and Bill Cosby ; Night Crossing , starring John Hurt and Beau Bridges , was a drama about a family trying to escape from East Germany ; Never Cry Wolf , directed by Carroll Ballard , was a drama about arctic wolves . Condorman was an ahead-of-its-time comedy about a comic book writer ( Michael Crawford ) who becomes a winged superhero . Even Tron , which on paper was another family-friendly action adventure , was bold in its approach ; directed by Steven Lisberger , it featured groundbreaking CGI and scenes of colour and abstract design that would n't look out of place at an exhibition of modern art @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hit , but its jazzy attempt at capturing the " golden age of arcades " zeitgeist soon earned it a cult following . Arguably the most successful live-action film from the era - at least in creative terms - came in 1983 : Something Wicked This Way Comes , based on the novel by Ray Bradbury . About a mysterious carnival which shows up in a sleepy Illinois town , it 's directed with real flair by Jack Clayton , who made the equally effective supernatural film The Innocents . Jonathan Pryce is perfectly cast as Mr Dark , the carnival 's sinister owner , and while this film was , like The Watcher In The Woods , subject to a certain amount of reworking during its production , Something Wicked is one of the best adaptations of Bradbury 's work made so far - as Roger Ebert once pointed out , it 's certainly one of the few films that captures the tone of Bradbury 's hackle-raising prose . Something Wicked was , alas , a major financial misfire , and as the middle @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it fend off takeover attempts from rival companies . In the boardroom , there were still disagreements over the kind of movies Disney should be producing and how they should be marketed ; the book Disney War goes so far to suggest that the reason so many of the studio 's movies flopped was because E Cardon Walker refused to spend money on advertising them . Author James B Stewart notes that , in 1982 , such rival movies as Annie and E.T. : The Extra-Terrestrial were given marketing campaigns amounting to as much as $10m ; Walker spent a mere fraction of that amount , and Tron struggled to gain traction . Ron Miller did , at least , find a means of getting adult movies made at Disney . Under his aegis , Touchstone Pictures was set up , a separate division of Disney which could distribute films with a more adult tone without tarnishing the brand of its parent company . The first film from the Touchstone stable was Splash , a low-budget mermaid comedy that , despite Walker 's attempts to trim out some of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Miller , it seemed , was right about the kinds of films Disney ought to be making - not that he had long to bask in his success . With his leadership gradually eroded by in-fighting and hostile takeovers from without , Miller was removed from his role of CEO in 1984 and replaced by a new group of executives , including Michael Eisner and Jeffrey Katzenberg . The last vestiges of darkness clung to Disney until the middle of the 80s , as two long-in-gestation projects finally made it to the screen . The Black Cauldron , a fantasy adventure based on a series of stories by Lloyd Alexander , had been in production since the late 1970s , and subjected to a series of delays ; directors and animators came and went , and when the film was finally completed in 1984 , its budget had soared to an extraordinary $44m . For The Black Cauldron 's team of animators , the project 's nadir arrived when Katzenberg , who 'd just joined Disney as chairman , sat and watched the finished @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dark and sometimes disturbing fantasy . In one scene , we see an army of ghouls stepping out of the titular cauldron . In another , a group of guards have their skin stripped from their bones . Katzenberg sat in the dark , baffled by the story and appalled by the violence and , as soon as the lights went up , stated in no uncertain terms that the film had to be cut . When a producer tried to explain that you ca n't just cut hours of painstakingly hand-drawn footage from an animated film , Katzenberg marched to the editing room and began re-cutting The Black Cauldron himself . He was eventually talked out of hacking the film up himself , but Katzenberg 's edict remained : approximately 12 minutes were taken out of The Black Cauldron , and some of those scenes have , tragically , been lost forever . Even in its softened form , The Black Cauldron was an unusually intense animated film by Disney 's standards . It 's flawed , for sure , but then again , its creative risks @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ studio 's long history . Its villain , The Horned King , may have given little kids nightmares , but shrouded in mist and shadow , he 's a truly fearsome creation . Audiences failed to flock to Disney 's attempt at a darker fantasy film , however , and The Black Cauldron proved to be another commercial disappointment ; at the US box-office , it failed to earn back more than half of its huge $44m investment . Likewise Return To Oz , Walter Murch 's unexpectedly stark follow-up to The Wizard Of Oz . A project that had begun under the earlier regime at Disney , the fantasy adventure was another creatively audacious film that failed to make its money back . But again , like so many of these Disney films from the period , Return To Oz has grown in to a cult favourite ; with the benefit of hindsight , the elements that critics suggested were too much for kids - the bleak tone , the surreal and often frightening sets and character designs - are what set it apart from more generic family @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that there was a time when Disney was in genuine danger of being taken over . A quick look at the top-grossing films of 2016 is enough to show you just how powerful the company has become over the past few decades : four out of five of the year 's biggest movies were all distributed by Disney . By the time 2017 's in full swing , it 's likely that Star Wars spin-off Rogue One will have joined the likes of Captain America : Civil War , Zootopia and Finding Dory on Disney 's list of this year 's most lucrative films . Disney 's long journey back to a major powerhouse began in the late 80s , as the live-action adventure Honey , I Shrunk The Kids and animated classic The Little Mermaid went on to astonishing success . But while Disney 's confidence continued to grow over the next decade , as it enjoyed a string of hits like Beauty And The Beast and Aladdin , there 's still something magnetic about that weird , dark phase its movies went through from 1979 onwards . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Wicked This Way Comes and The Black Cauldron are cult diamonds in the rough or plain duds , they 're a fascinating by-product of a company interrogating its own legacy - and if nothing else , they 're far from dull or formulaic . As Ron Miller explained back in the late 70s , " The last thing I want to do is go back to the formula Disney Picture . I want them to say , ' Hey , look , Disney is n't that predictable ... ' " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pulled out of running more costly and complex services' involves 'pulled out of' followed by a gerund, but it lacks an NP object that functions as a causee in relation to the subject. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Next round of cuts are ' beginning of the end '
Council chiefs today revealed 150 jobs are set to be axed in Blackpool as they look to make savings of ? 18.7m next year . Pensioners will be charged ? 1 to ride the tram and council tax will rise 3.99 per cent in a bid to plug the funding gap left by years of Government cuts . But Blackpool Council leader Simon Blackburn said there was light at the end of the tunnel , calling the latest savings ' the last of the big cuts ' . But despite the budget squeeze , which will see 80 people made redundant and a further 70 lose their jobs as contracts expire , he said the council still plans to borrow ? 17.5m to fund a new hotel on the Wilko 's site . Coun Blackburn added : " We have to raise council tax otherwise it will cost more jobs , more services ending . " This is hopefully the last awful budget we are going @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Square , he said : " This year we have tried to protect front line services as much as we possibly can , by looking at new and creative ways of saving money and generating income .

" All employees will be asked once again to volunteer to take unpaid leave which will save approximately ? 1m a year . " We have been taking difficult decisions for the past five-and-a-half years and area therefore in a much better position than some local authorities nationally . " But unless there is some sort of change in Government policy to our detriment in the future this should be the last of the big cuts . " He said the council would have to find ? 4.8m savings for 2018/19 and ? 6.6m for 2019/20 but he said raises in council tax and revenues would mean they would not mean more drastic cuts . He said : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the end . " Over the next three years we will be assessing the feasibility of transferring existing council services into wholly owned companies . " There are financial benefits to establishing these companies and in turn protecting the services that we know are important to the residents of Blackpool that may not have a secure future under the current funding arrangements . " He rejected the idea of selling off services to let private companies run them , pointing out that in the past the council has been left picking up the pieces when private businesses have pulled out of running more costly and complex services , such as elderly care . He said pensioners , who previously rode free of charge , would have to pay ? 1 to use the trams adding : " If they really have not got a pound , they can still get the number 1 bus which runs parallel .

He said : " We are proposing to borrow ? 17.5m to fund the development of a hotel on the Wilko site . " As a council we have the ability to borrow at a lower interest rate than others .

The new tramway will do this , as will the conference centre , as would new high-end hotels , as would new retail , leisure and tourism facilities , as would improved transport links . " Investing now is absolutely vital to our future to create jobs , to boost visitor numbers , boost the economy and secure future income for future generations .

He added : " Once this coming year is done hopefully the staff will be able to relax and not worry about redundancy . " Up until now it has felt like staff have been working on a 12-month contract almost , without being able to plan properly . " |

international bagged 67 goals during three spells with the Blues , including 27 in the 2014/15 season , before moving to Newcastle United in a ? 3m move at the back end of August .
Town have found the net just 12 times in the 15 games they have played since the 33-year-old 's departure , drawing a blank on eight occasions to slip to 16th in the second-tier table . Murphy , meanwhile , has featured just twice for his new employers -- both in the League Cup -- and is n't even getting a place on the bench for Rafa Benitez 's Championship table-toppers .

A nightmare year ... British Cycling off the track has continued as its funding was slashed by UK Sport and they were warned of further cuts if they do not get their house in order . More than ? 4million was stripped from British Cycling 's Lottery funding to prepare for Tokyo 2020 despite the team exceeding their medal target at the Rio Olympics this year . It is another blow to the governing body , which is fighting fires on several fronts . An independent review into the culture of British Cycling is expected to report its findings early next year , prompted by allegations of bullying and discrimination made to Sportsmail . A UK Anti-Doping Agency investigation into possible abuse of prescription drugs and the delivery of a mystery medical package to Team Sky , as revealed by Sportsmail , will also be made public next week . The chairman of UK Sport , Rod Carr , said the funding body would not hesitate to take more money from British Cycling if any wrongdoing is proved . ' The independent review is near and we 're waiting to see the outcomes , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as the government investment agency , to take action , we will do . ' Governance , as we 've seen with FIFA and the IAAF , is a serious issue , ' he added , ' and if there were issues in cycling it fundamentally undermines everything .

' Chairman of UK Sport , Rod Carr , said further money will be taken from British Cycling if any wrongdoing is proved Later this month a Culture , Media and Sport select committee will hold a hearing into the possible abuse at Team Sky of Therapeutic Use Exemption ( TUE ) forms -- effectively a doctor 's note allowing riders to take banned drugs to treat a legitimate medical condition .

Despite its most successful two years to date , with both the Men and Women 's GB teams achieving promotion to the top league of European competition , the sport will receive no financial support for vital elite performance training and travel to competitions in the run-up to Tokyo 2020 .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks a verb (V1) that fits the categories described (e.g., deception, force, persuasion) and does not involve a causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it discusses a transition out of funding, which is a different construction and does not yield a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

@ @ @ @ ... @ @ @ @ @ badminton chiefs are set to appeal against the decision to cut the sport 's funding for the Tokyo Olympics .
UK Sport on Friday announced a ? 345million National Lottery and government-funded investment in Olympic and Paralympic sports for the next four years . But badminton , handed ? 5.9million for Rio 2016 , will not get a penny of the latest cash despite Marcus Ellis and Chris Langridge 's bronze medal in the men 's doubles this year . Former Olympic badminton silver medallist Gail Emms , who is on the GB Badminton board , told Press Association Sport : " My initial reaction is , ' hang on a sec , we 've won an Olympic medal ' - you 'd think that if you go out there and win an Olympic medal it guarantees some funding . " I think badminton deserves some explanation and I 'm sure they will appeal against the decision . If I was one of those guys who went out there and came back with a medal , I 'd be fuming . " Badminton England chief executive Adrian Christy said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that supports the elite squad which also includes the likes of Chris and Gabby Adcock , and Rajiv Ouseph . Christy said : " We are prepared to fight for the hopes and dreams that their talent deserves and will be making representation to UK Sport and appealing to Sport Resolutions ( UK ) in due course . " Fencing , archery , weightlifting and wheelchair rugby will also not receive funding over the next Olympic and Paralympic cycle . British Fencing described its funding cut as " unexpected " after its performance in Rio , where Richard Kruse came within two points of claiming the country 's first Olympic medal for 52 years in the men 's foil . British Weightlifting said in a statement it was " shocked and devastated " . UK Sport CEO Liz Nicholl said : " With each of the sports affected we have a commitment to see their transition out of funding is supported . " They have got medal potential they have progressed as sports , but we can not reach to funding them for Tokyo @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Cycling has had its funding cut by more than ? 4million , to just over ? 26million , despite winning 12 medals in Rio - six of them gold - to exceed its target of 10 . British Cycling has endured one of its toughest years off the track , despite a stellar one on it , and Nicholl revealed : " In terms of governance the funding will be heavily conditioned . " We will be working out the detail for that over the next month . There are issues being managed in cycling and the governance condition will be aligned with the new governance code . " Rowing and modern pentathlon were the only sports not to meet expectations in Rio , and both have had their funding trimmed by around ? 500,000 and ? 300,000 respectively . In Rio Team GB won 67 Olympic medals , and ParalympicsGB took home 147 . UK Sport chairman Rod Carr said : " These are critical funding decisions for sports to take them on their journey to Tokyo 2020 and beyond so the historic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ decision has been deferred on UK Sport 's investment in wheelchair tennis while it explores the Lawn Tennis Association and Tennis Foundation 's ability to access sufficient non-grant income to fund themselves .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('sought to talk his parents out of pressing their complaint'). It involves a prevention interpretation, where the coach is attempting to prevent the parents from pressing their complaint. The verb 'talk' fits into the category of means by enticing, flattering, or verbal persuasion. The NP object 'his parents' functions as a causee, and the sentence allows for a clear prevention interpretation, making it an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'sought to talk' is the V1, 'his parents' is the NP object, and 'pressing their complaint' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also fits the prevention interpretation, as the action described is an attempt to prevent the parents from pressing their complaint. The verb 'talk' falls under the category of means to achieve a goal by verbal persuasion, which is one of the classifications for verbs in this construction. Additionally, the NP object 'his parents' functions as a causee, which is a semantic requirement for the construction. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'ran out of' which is a phrasal verb indicating depletion, not a transitive out of -ing construction. There is no causer or causee relationship, and it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

ITV ... 12 December 2016 at 11:55am As the Disasters Emergency Committee launch the Yemen Crisis Appeal , Save the Children worker Alice Klein visits a health centre in Amran which is treating severely malnourished babies to witness the harrowing effects of the food shortages . Yemen is the largest humanitarian crisis in the world with 18.8 million people in need of help , but you would n't necessarily know it . Until now , there have been few media reports coming out of Yemen , but a handful of hard-hitting pieces in recent weeks have alerted the public to the plight of millions of suffering people . Like with so many wars and crises , it has been revealed that babies and children suffer first and most . And my recent trip to Yemen to see the life saving works of Save the Children only served to confirm this heart-breaking reality . Yemen 's people are starving and without an end to the current conflict and more international aid , what is now crisis will soon become @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out ribs as he examined her Credit : Save the Children I met Fatima , a baby so small I was convinced she was a new-born . It turned out she was actually eight-months-old . Suffering from severe malnutrition , she weighed just two kilograms -- that 's the equivalent of two bags of sugar . The doctor stripped back her blankets and clothes to examine her , revealing ribs jutting out and little limbs of skin and bone . Some of my friends have babies of a similar age who have a full mop of shiny hair , are smiling and laughing , and learning to sit up and crawl . By contrast , Fatima just lay there with big bulging eyes that stared out blankly into the distance without the energy to even cry . Every room of every health centre and hospital I visited contained the same shocking scene : severely malnourished babies and children at death 's door . Some of the babies do n't even have the energy to cry Credit : Save the Children But it 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Yemen . I met an 18-year-old girl named Saida who was so malnourished she looked more like an eight-year-old . She is short for a teenager and incredibly slight , it is unfathomable to think she is a grown woman . Since the war started 20 months ago , she has stopped eating solid food entirely . She survived on a daily diet of water , milk and tea . One month ago her weight plummeted so low , to just nine kilograms , that her family scraped together the money to take her to hospital in the north-western city of Hodeida . A Yemeni photographer captured photos of her that ran in the papers , making her the face of this terrible crisis . Saida 's weight plummeted to just nine kilograms . Credit : Reuters After that hospital ran out of functioning equipment and supplies needed to treat her , she was transferred to the Al-Sabeen Hospital in Yemen 's capital Sana'a . Though now heavier at 17 kilograms , she is still dangerously malnourished . Saida has difficulty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ energy . But the doctors are determined she must drink eight cups of formula milk per day if she is to have any chance of getting better . We spent an hour trying to convince her that the sooner she drank more formula , the sooner she can get stronger and leave hospital to go and be with her family again . Through tears she managed a few gulps of the nutrient enriched milk . It is starting to work , slowly , and I hope she finds the strength to persevere . Saida , on her admission to hospital , and now Credit : Reuters/Save the Children Saida and Fatima are living proof of the human cost of Yemen 's war . Traditionally the country imports 90% of its food , much of it through a port in Hodeida but this has been largely destroyed allegedly in airstrikes by the Saudi Arabia-led coalition . Just two cranes are still functioning making unloading cargo of food , fuel and medicine a slow process while import restrictions remain . And even when supplies get @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them out across the country , a result of attacks on infrastructure and bureaucratic impediments . The shortfalls mean food , fuel and medicine are all vastly overpriced . Combined with the fact Yemen is the poorest country in the Middle East and millions during the past 20 months have lost their livelihoods , many families now can not afford to eat properly . As a result , some two million children are malnourished . And half a million of these are ' severely malnourished ' meaning they will die unless they receive urgent help from agencies like Save the Children . As malnutrition lowers children 's immune systems , it makes them vulnerable to other illness and disease , too . 20 months of war 500,000 children are severely malnourished Our teams are supporting 60 hospitals and health centres . We also send Mobile Medical Teams into remote villages to look for severe malnutrition . When we find it , we refer the babies and children to hospitals for urgent treatment and support their families to get there . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or who can not afford the trip to hospital . Some are selling their belongings - such as gold jewellery , gas canisters , cars and livestock - or taking out loans to pay for their journey . An overcrowded hospital in Yemen Credit : AFP Even when families can afford to get to hospital , these are overcrowded and understaffed ( because public sector workers have n't been paid for three months ) . Many are so low on medical supplies they are sending parents out to find their own medicines . But the cost of the journey means they can not then afford it , one mother told me : " The doctor has written a long prescription but those medicines will cost an additional $20 which I ca n't afford , so I will just have to throw that piece of paper away " . Every parent I interviewed was grateful for any help they had received from Save the Children or other agencies , but there is only so much we can do with limited funds and limited supplies . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' emergency ' , just one step away from ' famine ' . Credit : Save the Children There are likely tens of thousands more malnourished children who are not reaching health facilities and subsequently dying at home , in silence . The US-based Famine Early Warning System Network now says a quarter of all Yemenis are in a food ' emergency ' , just one step away from ' famine ' . Unless we intervene soon , we will cross that tipping point and babies like Fatima will die and young women like Saida will never reach adulthood and their true potential . That 's why the Disasters Emergency Committee is launching a Yemen appeal , to raise much needed funds for Yemen and agencies like Save the Children who work there . To donate please text SUPPORT to 70000 . The full ? 5 will go to the DEC Yemen Crisis Appeal . |

READING residents have the chance to plunge themselves back in time and into three dimensions through an innovative project created by Reading College students . As part of Reading 's Year of Culture higher education computing and systems development students have created a virtual replica of Reading Abbey ruins , by taking and stitching together more than 7,000 photos . The students have collaborated with A-level history students to create a website where visitors can click on specific areas of the Abbey replica to access historical information . From today until Friday 16 December the tour will be projected in the Town Hall Square from 6 to 8pm each evening as part of Light Up Reading .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It also does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'out of' in a different context, referring to wanting more from life, which is not related to the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes an event where Southampton leveled the score 'out of nothing', which is an idiomatic expression meaning unexpectedly or without apparent cause. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the phrase does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

out of the FA Youth Cup at the hands of Southampton
December 12 , 2016 Manchester United were knocked out of the FA Youth Cup by Southampton at Old Trafford on Monday night . Tahith Chong , after coming on as a substitute out United ahead in the 64th minute of the match with a stunning effort , but Southampton scored twice to earn a place in the next round in the final minutes of the match . United had high hopes in this competition this season , after finding their feet in the league , scoring 43 goals this season in true Manchester United style . Some things are not meant to be , I guess . Kieran McKenna started a strong side against Southampton in the FA Youth Cup with Angel Gomes , Callum Gribbin , Joshua Bohui and DJ Buffonge playing in the front four , which is a vert attacking lineup . The likes of Tahith Chong and Nishan Burkart were left on the bench , with them available should they be needed . Indy Boonen , who was on the bench for the U23 's against Chelsea on Friday was not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ United started the match well against the South Coast side , who have not won a match for three months , which suggests they are not a very good side , so United should come away with the victory and progress into the next round . United were pushing from the start to take advantage of their visitors , playing some good football and dominating the South Coast side . After 22 minutes , the score was still 0-0 and the referee blew for a challenge on a Southampton player , who was booked for simulation . The whistle was blown so quickly , it could have easily been a penalty . United then seemed to slow the game down , possibly struggling to break their opposition . A break in the match came with United on the attack through Bohui , who won a corner . United then could have taken the lead through Gomes , but his shot was off target . Just after the half hour , United again had a chance to take the lead through Lee O'Connor and Angel Gomes on the rebound @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ target once again . United were the ones in possession of the chances , but so far had been unlucky in front of goal . Southampton then got the ball into United 's area , failing to capitalse themselves . With ten minutes of the first half remaining , United really needed to start trying to take ownership of the game , finding a goal to see them through . United played some good football in the final ten minutes , pinning Southampton into their own half and penalty area , with United so far failing to break . United ended that half with another shot on goal , which saw the young Red Devils being awarded a corner , which amounted to nothing either . United were certainly on top in terms of creativity and possession of the ball , also spending much of the half on the attack with little return . The important factor was that United had so far failed to score , which needs to change , or this could be a long night . Southampton seem like a disciplinary time bomb waiting to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ against the side who have gone three months without winning a match . The first half ended 0-0 . The second half started with Southampton vying to take charge of the match , keeping United in their own half for periods of the first ten minutes , having a few free-kicks , but taking them badly with United gaining possession and attacking themselves . Kieran McKenna readied Tahith Chong to come on for the home side , giving some fresh legs , pace and ability on the ball , which might thwart this tires Southampton side . United had a period of pressure before Chong replaced DJ Buffonge with Bohui having a shot on goal , which was wide of the target . United were now looking to get something from this game , something which had been a challenge so far . In the 64th minute of the match , after some good play from United , Tahith Chong scored a spectacular left-footed goal after turning on the ball . United were off the mark and the Southampton side looked dejected in a way that they knew @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ down . United continued to dominate the match , keeping hold of the ball and looking for that second goal , which would kill the game no doubt . United got through on goal through Callum Gribbin , who went down in the box , but nothing was given . It was the end of the match for Gribbin , who was replaced by Indy Boonen , who was not on the team sheet this evening . Southampton found themselves back in the match n the 83rd minute levelling the score out of nothing , celebrating like they had won the World Cup , bless them . United now needed to kill this game off in the final seven minutes of the match , or face extra time . United immediately went on the attack with Boonen weaving through the Southampton players looking for a chance to have his shot on goal , that never came with him passing to an advancing Callum Whelan , who fired towards goal and was wide of the mark , unfortunately . Southampton took the lead minutes later , leading the match with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ FA Youth Cup . United , needing an equaliser to force extra time were advancing with Bohui having a chance to level the score , but the keeper kept the ball out of the net , giving United a corner , which came to nothing . Time was running out , United needed to throw everything at their opposition , but were being picked off , losing the ball and could have conceded a third goal , but luckily did n't . United made their third change of the evening with Nishan Burkart replacing Jake Kenyon . The Southampton striker needed some treatment , which will add some time at the end of the match , with United still needing something to level the score . Manchester United are out of the FA Youth Cup . Website Editor . Supported United since 1985 . My favourite match has to be the Champions League final in 1999 . The last few minutes still make the hair stand up on the back of my neck . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Scholes , Ryan Giggs and Gary Neville . |

A Communist party-controlled ... has launched a searing attack on Donald Trump after the reality show host threatened an extreme makeover of his country 's policies towards China , warning the US president-elect : " Pride goes before a fall . " The Global Times , a notoriously rambunctious state-run tabloid , was writing after Trump reignited a simmering row with Beijing by suggesting he might recognise Taiwan , which China regards as a breakaway province , unless Beijing agreed a new " deal " with his administration . Read more Trump 's move came less than a fortnight after the billionaire infuriated Beijing by holding a 10-minute telephone conversation with Taiwan 's first female president , Tsai Ing-wen . In a tough-talking editorial published on Tuesday the newspaper , which sometimes reflects official views , claimed the " calculating businessman " might feel he had pulled off a shrewd manoeuvre by " seizing China 's fate by the throat " . " However , the truth is this inexperienced president-elect probably has no knowledge of what he 's talking about . He has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fails to understand the limitation of US powers in the current era , " it warned , calling on the Chinese government to respond with " surprise moves " . Trump 's comments revealed he " despises China strategically " , the newspaper added , warning : " Pride goes before a fall . Even before entering the White House , he has already put his cards over blackmailing China on the table ... What reason do we have to accept a most unfair and humiliating deal from Trump ? " Read more Speaking to the same newspaper , a Chinese scholar sought to hammer home the point . " Trump 's remarks have not only jeopardised world peace , but also upset the Beijing-Washington relationship ... he will pay for his mistakes , " warned Niu Xinchun from the China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations . Jessica Chen Weiss , an expert in Chinese foreign policy and politics from Cornell University , said the increasingly tough language coming out of Beijing was part of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ before his inauguration on 20 January . If the president-elect refused to change tack , behind-the-scenes countermeasures might be rolled out to ensure the Republican understood the dangers of challenging China . Weiss said Beijing would now be looking for " pressure points that Trump might be responsive to " , particularly on the economic front . " You can imagine China making its harder for American businesses in China to operate ; nothing official , but certain actions that might serve as a warning to the US business community that this is n't going to end well if Trump continues , " she said . " I do n't think we are seeing that yet -- I think it is likely to wait . It may well wait until Trump takes specific actions . It 's one thing to question a policy or talk about revising it and it is another to take actions that indicate greater recognition for Taiwan as a sovereign state , " Weiss added . They include weakening China 's currency , the renminbi , in order to hurt US exporters @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ economic aid into Pyongyang . There are fears in Taiwan , an independently and democratically ruled island to which Beijing lays claim , that it could face severe economic or political retaliation from China before the US is targeted . Possible measures against Taiwan include a diplomatic offensive which would see Beijing seek to seduce Taipei 's already meagre stock of 22 allies which include Haiti , Paraguay and S ? o Tom ? and Pr ? ncipe , one of Africa 's smallest nations . Weiss said it remained unclear whether Trump would carry his " wild talk " on China into the White House . But the tycoon 's arrival in power had raised the prospect of a dramatic and potentially catastrophic falling-out between the world 's two largest economies . " It could be a rupture in the US-China relationship that we have n't seen yet , " she said . " I 'm not at all optimistic " . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it seems to describe a situation where '1,000 leather trousers' (likely a misinterpretation or typo) is the subject of 'has pulled out of filming', which does not involve an NP object or a VP2[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The construction here is more about withdrawing from an activity rather than causing someone to move out of or preventing someone from an activity.

The current rebels have been encouraged by talk from senior ministers like Chancellor Philip Hammond in recent days , suggesting a longer transitional relationship may need to be negotiated to ease the impact of withdrawal . Man held following police probe into tweet which called for people to ' Jo Cox ' the Tory MP Anna Soubry BoJo saves his best gag for the PM and compares her ? 1,000 leather trousers to lederhosen The meeting comes as a Lords report calls for an immediate guarantee to protect the European Union citizenship rights of all EU nationals in the UK at the time of Brexit .

Britain is expected to seek to introduce controls on free movement rules , but details of the system have yet to be outlined .

She will no longer appear on the satirical panel show on Friday due to " unforeseen circumstances " , an agent for the programme 's production company said . The Tory MP for Loughborough , who Theresa May sacked as education secretary when she took over Downing Street , has been embroiled in the so-called " trousergate " row since she criticised the PM 's decision to wear the ? 995 trousers during a photo shoot for a newspaper .

A spokeswoman for programme makers Hat Trick Productions said Mrs Morgan had been booked to appear on the show , the last in the current series , since September alongside host Gary Lineker and comedian Jon Richardson . |

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('get locked out of being a part of the highlights of their sport'). It also induces a prevention interpretation, where the action of getting locked out prevents the NP object ('many') from participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate ('being a part of the highlights of their sport'). The NP object functions as a causee, and the sentence aligns with the semantic and syntactic properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

This has been a year in which FINA 's refusal to engage with key stakeholders in swimming has highlighted cracks in a system that has failed on some fundamental levels , including : a lack of recognition that the sport is growing up and professional athletes will want their own representatives -- not those hand-picked by a blazer here , a boss there -- to be at the top table arguing for the things that matter to the key asset of the sport : swimmers a refusal to even acknowledge let @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of a call for the international federation to submit to independent review of structures and finances so that swimming is run for swimmers and can grow in that spirit of service not self-service in office a failure to give experts , commissions and committees a free reign on the agendas they wish to set for the betterment of the sport ( not the betterment of themselves ) , without ' guidance ' from on high where that simply means ' politics ' not wisdom . ( L-R ) Fanny Teijonsalo of Finland and Javier Acevedo of Canada race in the mixed relay at world s/c titles in Windsor -- by Patrick B. Kraemer One fine day , Georges Kiehl , former French international and a man who has poured good will and effort into promoting the best of swimming for many a long year , will get a prize for perseverance . That he missed only one European Championship ( 1970 after returning from racing ) between racing for France at the 1962 continental showcase right through to London 2016 this year is a wonder in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ long after FINA had somehow managed to lose the rhyme and reason of short-course racing he 'd done so much to promote in that quiet way that unsung heroes often do makes him a candidate for canonisation . Kiehl , who recalled days of youth , triumph and tragedy on the 50th anniversary of the Bremen air disaster back in January this year , has enjoyed several roles since his racing days . Multi-lingual commentator , presenter , he was also media liaison for the European swimming league . In the early world cups in the days when Bonn held sway as short-course pressed for a greater presence in world swimming , Kiehl was among those exploring ways to bring the thrill and splash of the sport to audiences in between the big moments at a time when the four-year cycle Olympics , continental and regional highlight ; World Championships ; another regional highlight ; and back to the Gameshis presence at meets such as the Canet round of the Mare Nostrum Tour and today the Euro Meet in Luxembourg is not only useful to organisers but lends an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in his 70s these days . You 'd never know it . I do n't write any of this to embarrass Georges nor to make him our No18 in this SwimVortex choice of top 20 significant stories . It is just that he is symptomatic of an army of people who have long got things done in swimming , rarely got any credit as they help to keep the show on the road for the athletes while the likes of FINA keep the show going for ... well , themselves , for the most part . Kiehl is also among those who helped lay the foundations for short-course to become official , to become the realm of official world records in 1991 , to become a vehicle for change , with prize money the lot of the swimmer and twixt-tradition-peaks swimming presented as fast and furious and thrilling . And ... they 're off -- by Patrick B. Kraemer It all turned into " The World Cup " . It all turned into : let 's water down the quality , let 's pump up the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the family ( the ones in the dry suits ) , bring in the sponsor , slap Yakult on every cap and give the swimmers enough money to keep them quiet in the belief they 'd turn ' pro ' when they 'd done nothing of the kind and were living under the same yolk as those who had gone before them in almost all respects barring the ability to earn what for most was pocket money -- and still is . Just in case anyone should think I 'm selling long-course short , here 's an excellent piece on YourSwimlog.com headed Long-Course Swimming : Why You Should Embrace the Big Pool . Quite so -- Olivier Poiier-Lery setting out some of the key reasons why long-course makes the difference and will and should remain the ' real deal ' of the sport . Anyone , average swimmer or elite athlete who has ever gone from short to long and back again in the course of a day in training will know the feeling : water to treacle , breath to gasp -- and back again . It @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ then taking them off and doing it all over again while wondering what happened to your feet , that friendly angle of buoyancy and the extra catch and carry in your stroke . There 's a difference , no matter how hard you work , how much you develop your skills in both environments . One of the purposes of this piece , however , is to use short-course swimming as an example of where it can all go wrong when the political agenda and jockeying for position on lifestyle support trumps all else . In the book of swimming 's second thoughts : shiny suits , facilities rules , professionalisation of structures and personnel -- and short-course . Katinka Hosszu who by now will have a medal for every day of the year -- and some to spare -- by Patrick B. Kraemer The World Cup limped to an end in Hong Kong in late northern autumn . The fall , as Americans put it . Most appropriate for a failed product that needs more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ work ? Well , there the prize-money structure : for four years it has worked in favour of a handful and to the vast benefit of of one swimmer . Not Katinka Hosszu 's fault -- nor is she objecting to the model that works a treat -- and who can blame her . We can blame the custodians who allow it . Back in the days when Khiel was among those thinking about how to structure the prizes and the premium moments , no-one had in mind four or five all-China heats of an event when in China , three heats of Russians when in Russia and a multiple endless racer who would win it all , time and time and time again , the big prizes only truly open to thos who can step up to a top 3 place on at least three strokes as well as a range of distance , sprint to distance . I recall lots of moments in Bonn and Stockholm and Paris where the media bench was full . They did n't come to see that domestic marathon of heats @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the world top 50 , let alone top 200 ( many in the cup series this year fit that bill ) ; they did n't come to see a development meet . And nor did the athletes . They came to race the best not the remains of the best . Where is the scope to pay professional rates , in the cup competition as it stands , to the likes of Adam Peaty , Joe Schooling , Ryan Murphy , Ruta Meilutyte and many others ? Folk who , of course , can swim beyond their beat ... but not in world-record rattling form in 10 and more events none times a season . Hosszu is anything but average and yet there is a sense , backed by the evidence of points , that FINA wants mediocrity because in opting for that it can have its cake and eat it , tell the world and its broadcasters that swimmers can be like tennis players , constantly on the top and in the headlines . It wo n't wash . Take Peaty . The British ace , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the 2016 Olympic Games , just bypassed the whole of the post-Rio global short-course season . Why ? Adam Peaty celebrates -- by Patrick B. Kraemer " At the end of the day , no-one cares about short-course in Britain . There 's no coverage of it and what people want to know about is the Olympic Games and the World long-course Championships . I think swimming is getting there as a sport , climbing up the ranking of sports to another level but only when it comes to the Olympic Games and then the World long-course . " August to November , 8 or 9 events , full world-championship programs . Attractive ? " The world cup is n't working . It is ridiculous and embarrasing . They FINA and the sponsor the federation persuaded to sign up should put that money to good use , anywhere else in the sport . It 's completely the wrong time of the season for me and for most swimmers . Put it in January and February if you have to ; make it one of those good @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ah ! Season ! Swimming is a sport for all seasons but none , right now , when you look at the chaos of a calendar that serves to demote , not promote , swimming and swimmers . We are not talking about the seasons that each of you may recognise and feel familiar with . We 're talking about the seasons that exist in other sports that are recognised and followed by the big audience in the wider world . Peaty hits the nail on the head when he raises the word season and raises the timing of events . He then adds : " No-one turns up to it and that 's why they put so much money into thinking that people will have to come to make a living . But they do n't . I do n't blame the people that do go to them the cup rounds because the money is good and they have to make a living but FINA needs to do something about that because it clearly is n't working . " Photo by Patrick B. Kraemer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The solution is not to simply revamp the world cup . What is required is a fundamental rethink of the swimming calendar at world-class elite level and where that fits into all those events , from regional and continental events to domestic trials and nationals , college swimming and on down through the ranks of juniors and developers , international and domestic . As things stand , there is no structure , no logic and no flow that makes sense to anyone outside the sport . And even within it , the voice of opposition , so long dormant , is starting to be heard . FINA 's obsession with ' more is more ' has taken a toll . The federation 's attempt to steer more attention to and place more value on short-course has failed . Says Peaty : " For me it is all about long-course . That 's it : all people want to see it long-course because that 's what the Olympics is and what the majors are . I 'd rather win gold or multiple golds in Hungary next year ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ world s/c event . " He adds : " The thing is , it is a different sport , short-course . I do n't do world cups because its unrelatable . It 's about people going there for the money and it 's not what it should be about . You 've got to have passion and that 's where the difference is made at long-course : 100% passion and dedication or you wo n't be there winning big medals . " Adam Peaty -- by Patrick B. Kraemer I do n't raise the direct issue of access to sports governance and the decision-making process with Peaty , a man on whom you need not try any sheep-dog-style questions that seek to corral the answers to suit whatever they intend to suit . He knows his own mind -- and he would one day like to put that to good use as a leader in his sport on dryland . His interest rests in a better deal for athletes and the promotion of values he holds dear and what he feels is important in the sport @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ now where people will do anything to get on YouTube , on Facebook and get noticed through some viral video doing something absolutely stupid . Obviously you should have your fun as a kid but its whether that stays with you as an adult . " So what to do about it and what relevance to swimming ? " I 'd love to have a position where I could have a positive impact on the sport , not just on people . I think the sport needs some people who have been there and done it , so I 'm thinking of going into that area as well . Maybe in the IOC or FINA where you can absolutely make a difference and change that culture and give 100% to that sport and know what 's 100% right and you 'd be willing to do anything to make the sport right and do the best by the athletes and those who work at it every single day . " Recently in swimming governance it just has n't been like that . I think it has to change @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ come the time . That 's eight years away he intends to battle for top honours until the 2024 Olympic Games and alot can change in eight years so you hope that others will press for change , too , along the way . " Alex Baumann , one of the greats of medley swimming Photo compilation : depicted on a Canadian bus ; in a poster ; in action , the Prague astronomical clock ; and with coach Tihanyi Fascinating prospects : imagine a day when the likes of Peaty , Anthony Ervin , Michael Phelps , Mack Horton and Co get a direct say in the rights of athletes , in what matters to them , in what values they hold most dear . Go back in history and you find the likes of Michael Gross and Alex Baumann and Shane Gould and Debbie Meyer and Nancy Hogshead and ... and many others ... putting keen minds to the topic of how best swimming might be run and what the sport 's priorities should be and how one might go about delivering that . You @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ altogether , lost to the sport ) nor Baumann ( lost to swimming in a direct sense but playing leading roles in sport in his post-swimmer career ) nor a great many others got anywhere near to the decision-making process in swimming . Will Phelps ? Will Peaty ? Will Ervin ? Will so many others , coach leaders in the mix , who would have so much to contribute ? Time will tell but unless FINA is either radically reformed or replaced , they will not have access to such things . The entire structure is built to make sure that can not be , while ' athlete representative ' , such as an athlete leader on the FINA Bureau , is little more than a token measure in the midst of a culture that prizes assimilation of any who join ' the family ' over just about all else . New and sound ideas , let alone saying ' actually , I disagree ' , have little chance of flourishing . Since Rio 2016 , I have asked 25 Olympic finalists , just over half @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the athletes sitting on commissions at FINA and relatied continental bodies . Go ! -- by Patrick B. Kraemer To a man and a woman the reply was ' No ' . Of the 25 , 20 noted that they had never been asked and never been consulted on any issue related to athlete well-being , from the timing of finals in Rio to the kind of blocks that are used , to the scheduling of competitions and on to issues such as the distribution of prize money at major events and the obligation to wear kit with the FINA sponsor on it even when that may place the athlete in direct conflict with the personal sponsor that pays the swimmer 's way through the sport . So how , then does FINA go about seeking information on what athletes want , how more might make it to the cup ? Well , there 's the athlete 's commission but that 's not " current crew " . What FINA has engaged in is a process that lacks transparency and anything like a scientific approach . A @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : go out into the world of swimmers and return with the messages they have for us , partly so we can use that to do a quick spruce up but largely go and as things stand and partly so we can say ' well , we did ask and that 's what the athletes wanted ' . But what is it that they want for an event in between the twin peaks ? what does swimming want to showcase ? what is it the sport wants to reward ? what does it want to hold up as ' peak performance ' ? what other ways can the sport be measured in to take away the need to always be either in peak form or boring . what is its highlight , where is weight and worth ? is quantity to be valued over quality ? what is the rationale behind prizing excellent training sets across the board over the few focussed moments of higher excellence ? do you want a wider audience ? do you want a wider catchment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the swimmer , want to become part of a professional network of elite swimmers ? does your sport showcase your excellence in a way that makes swimming accessible and helps spread the word of an activity that transcends racing and health and entertainment , the wider benefits to be had stretching all the way to saving lives ? can swimming do much better by you and the potential of professionalism ? Splash -- by Patrick B. Kraemer Format matters . Swimming is a sport that keeps telling the deaf ear of FINA and other guardians that it needs to train in private and get on with life beyond the lights at certain times of the year ; swimming is a sport crying out for calendar reform ; swimming is a sport left looking for new ways to grow beyond Mount Olympus and World Championships , leagues and complex points systems having proved unappealing and ineffective as a magnet even with money as incentive . Can a completely new concept work ? And where would short-course fit in ? We considered those issues here at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we came up with as a possible way forward , a way out of the twixt-peak malaise . It was published not as a commandment but as an invitation to sit at the round table and imagine what kind of swimming world you would like to see . That conversation has not yet reached the custodians of the sport . If sooner or later , swimmers and coaches want something different , however , they may well have to organise it themselves unless FINA has an epiphany . Many of you read " A great day out at SWimbledon " when it was published on November 15 . You need not read on . Below is the same piece repeated for those who missed it the first time round and are interested in the topic at hand : reform . Others believe the world cup is still the best way of organising a regular tour-style gathering and spread swimming across the globe , even if , as is the case @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . SwimVortex is aware that swimmers have been discussing what to do about the unhappy state of their in-season world . Most heartening news , for it is swimmers who must , ultimately , own change , move change and work for a professional future that will not be delivered through any of the vehicles currently available to them . Below is a fictional glimpse of a different pool in a time of professional swimmers and improved governance . As you read , please keep in mind the following : NB : references to formats and distances and strokes in the following should not be read as concrete suggestions : this is simply a caricature-style demonstration of the scope swimming has to do something different in a constructive manner beyond the championship moments and therefore lessen the impact of comparisons that need not be ; the moment is left to itself , the with challenge and fun and education and entertainment and community all considered , as are the traditions , history and the lore of the sport . That a radical shake-up is required in swimming is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ those who believe nothing , or little , needs to change . As I suggested here , tinkering wo n't get the job done . The status quo and the structures of governance that exist are not set up to favour a professional swimming realm that has the interests , welfare and pockets of athletes at the top of the mission statement . That will almost certainly mean a long list of reasons from some quarters why something like the below can not and should not and ' will not ' be done . No matter . It will , ultimately , come down to what swimmers want and whether that includes their freedom from total federation control , freedom to make their own choices , the desire to own their sport and to benefit from a professional era that is yet to make it to the swimming realm . Precisely what the specific formats and timings of any change should be , would , of course , have to be the subject of much wider discussion with those steeped in the guidance , preparation and schedules of athletes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ seasons and where a new style of annual competitions might fit in the calendar to the benefit of swimmers and their greater goals will the way be clear to consider the kind of arena , entertainment and presentation that would suit both live and remote audiences and take swimming to a new level and a realm more recognisable and accessible to the world that did not grow up in the pool . the below is a fictional account in which the roles of swimmers and what they say in the script are also fictional ; they are there as part of the theatre set and play I 'm told that athletes do n't have the capacity to get through an article of this length . I do n't believe that . Athletes know well that life is not a tweet . They know if they put into their training the 2min Vs the 20min effort , they can kiss goodbye to unlocking their potential . Here 's a good reason to stretch your brain cells beyond " 10 reasons why a fart can make a training set " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sprint Classic ahoy -- Anthony Ervin and Nathan Adrian will be among those gunning for dosh in the dash -- by Patrick B. Kraemer Roll-up , roll-up . The Pro-Swim Classic is born . Some have dubbed it Swimbledon : swimming 's attempt to create a race-for-wages series that starts with domestic and regional qualification rounds leading to a two-week festival of three events every year around late January and February . And where we say swimming , read swimmers , for the athletes themselves own the biggest stake in ProSwim Classic and have had the biggest say in what is valuable to them in-season and what they feel will sell to the wider world . That goes for current athletes and former greats of the sport , starting with the founder members of the Classic , the " Final 4 Club " . Backing for ProSwim was sought from all who ever finished in the top four in an an Olympic swimming final . These greats of the sport are the first elders of a new era in the sport in which they excelled . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has a Final 8 Club for the venerated of their sport . The Grand Slam format at the helm of professional tennis does not translate to a sport whose summit is held every four years , the Olympics , with a long-course World Championships showcase every two years in between , the traditions of those peak moments much treasured . However , the decline of the swimming world cup that in its latter years made a handful of swimmers wealthy , rated quantity over quality and failed to attract support from the vast majority of world-class swimmers , the damage of dilution prompting a rethink in the ranks of athletes , coaches , sponsors , broadcasters and others . Taking the plunge into a professional era by Patrick B. Kraemer In the absence of any response from FINA , the World Swimming Association and the Professional Swimmers ' Association secured a multi-million golden handshake from Hancock Prospecting and organisers of the Classic announced a year ago their intention to get the show started this season , Australia the first host of the Classic Final and Fortnight @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , domestic and regional qualification rounds leading to the Classic , a fortnight of world-class swimming and much more that brings the world swimming community together in an aquatic forum like none before . Two events three days long are followed by the Pro-Swim Final held over four days , the first of which will be held in Perth , Westerm Australia afrer knockout stages in Brisbane and Sydney . Swimmers will have their nation recognised but they will race for a professional team . There are two sides to Pro-Swim : in domestic rounds , with prize money stretched from that level right through to the Classic fortnight , swimmers can qualify as individuals in the traditional competition program . The Classic will be a Professional teams event including knockout stages in solo events with a twist , in sprint , mid and distance . The Classic will also feature opening days at each of the three rounds dedicated to relays with a difference . December will serve as the annual transfer window for Classic Teams to finalise their squads after the domestic and regional rounds of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the first 10 Classic Teams , each with 24 swimmers , 12 men and 12 women , have been declared , selection to any squad requiring a world top 30 ranking as of December 1 , the start of transfer season . The first ProSwim Class Squads are : Team Discovery ; The Energy Squad ; Volvic Victors ; Team Arena ; Team Speedo ; FINIS Flyers ; Phillips 66 ; House Charity ; Aquasphere Aquatics ; and The SwimZi Squadron . Swimmers who do not find a place on a team ( their incentive to rise up the rankings and gain access to the team element of the Classic ) will race in solo events and earn prize money in precisely the same way . The only difference is that most of them will not race in relays and their swims will not count for points that go towards the overall Pro-Team prizes . Some of those who are not part of a Pro team can be elected onto teams by fellow swimmers for specific events on Team Trials Day . Nathan @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Olympic podium in 2016 -- by Patrick B. Kraemer A new era has required not only additions to the swimming rule book but a rewrite of the existing law of the sport . The Professional Swimmers Association , working with World Swimming Association , Classic organisers and the Swimming Oversight Senate ( SOS ) , a new independent watchdog for the sport , have laid down rules of engagement that control the activities of agents and others . For its part , the international federation agreed to groundbreaking changes in the rule book to cover the demands of a new era and the Classic . Among the most significant changes : a lifting of restrictions on the size and shape of logos permission , for the first time , for alcoholic drink makers access to the sport through advertising Australian vintners have expressed interest in partnerships in two of the Classic 's " Islands " of activity , namely the " Dryland " , a meeting lounge , with catering , where athletes , Hall of Famers , sponsors , officials , parents and guests @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and " Fame " , an exhibition that will be organised by the International Hall of Fame at every Classic in celebration of the achievements of swimmers , coaches and others in swimming . ISHOF will also host annual induction ceremonies during the Classic , the thread of history linking former greats and contributors to the current wave of talent . Michael Phelps -- who took the plunge for clean sport and unlocked the door marked " Time for Athletes To Be Heard " -- by Patrick B. Kraemer Adam Peaty ( GBR ) -- by Patrick B. Kraemer The Pro-Swim Classic Board have made a priority of keeping costs under control , consideration granted to the carbon footprint of the sport , a " Sustainable Swimming World In Motion " to be launched during the first Classic Final . With lifestyles , training commitments , carbon footprints and money in mind , organisers also opted not to create new events for qualifications rounds . Meet organisers from around the world were asked to apply for domestic and regional " Pro-Swim Qualifier " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and avoiding costly and unnecessary additions to the competition calendar . As such , in January , the Austin round of the Arena Pro-Swim meet served as a regional qualification round for the Americas , while the Euro Meet in Luxembourg hosted Europe 's regional qualifier . The host of next year 's final will be Long Beach in Califiornia after knockouts at Mission Viejo and Arizona State University , while Paris , Rome and London are among parties interested in hosting the event in its third year . Classic organisers and sponsors have placed emphasis on holding the events in locations with a strong swimming tradition , backed by success in the pool and audience . Discussions continue over whether to have fixed venues for the event in the way the Grand Slams in tennis , Opens in golf and F1 grand prix events follow a regular circuit and in so doing establish traditions that transcend the race , help develop crowd-friendly environments and keep costs at bay . During a press and teleconference today , Classic Board member Michael Phelps noted : " We @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ year when the best of the sport gathers in one place and has a party in the pool , with racing , exchange of ideas , guidance on safety , the latest trends and products and some great days out for what we intend to be a growing base of swimming fans . Its our church if you like and we have to go out and find those followers . James Guy races Michael Phelps in the last race of the GOAT 's career -- by Patrick B. Kraemer Michael Phelps by Craig Lord He added : " We did n't want this to be a match of other championship moments . There 's no need to replicate those . The Olympics and World long-course Championships are long-established , they 're great , they 're not going away and they will remain the peak moments of our sport , a time when swimmers stand up and get counted for country , team and self . " He then explained the thinking behind the Classic : " What swimming needed was a showcase that could achieve several @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ great swimmers to have acess to great international competition based on their world ranking not the strength or whim of their home federations . Many of us were lucky on that score but many are not and get locked out of being a part of the highlights of their sport even though they 're are serious athletes right up there with the best in the world . " We also wanted to create an annual one-stop show for anyone who loves swimming , a must on the calendar for swimmers , coaches , parents , fans and the officials , sponsors , merchandisers and marketeers who make all of this possible in a way that truly promotes our great sport up the ranking . We wanted to create an event with an impact that ripples well beyond the race , all the way out to swiming for life , safety and health . There is so much untapped potential in our sport . " He set those out as follows : provide a showcase in which swimmers have the majority stake and say and step up into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ provide a living wage for professional swimmers ; provide a regular swimming spectacle at which athletes can put their skills on show beyond the summer championship moments ; provide a format that delivers instant results without the need to calculate who won ; provide a forum for ideas and skills and different ways of showing what a great sport swimming is ; provide regular haunts for that spectacle and therefore have the racing as the heart of something bigger , a show and a great day out for the fans , a way of reaching new people and bringing them to the water and intriducing them to a sport that 's for life and saves lives ; provide domestic and regional rounds that do n't require swimmers to travel extensively when being home for uninterrupted periods of training is the right thing for them and to do that at times of the year that fit the training cycle and in formats that are challenging , fun and great for fans and the new fans we want to get through the door and loving @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ headline sponsor , is now working in partnership with other backers , including swimming 's traditional partners such as kit makers and timing outfits , to help to kick start a new era in swimming after the old World Cup proved a poor vehicle for promoting the sport and supporting professionalism among swimmers . The cup scanned across four continents , nine events and three months , rendering the " tour " out of bounds for the vast majority of world-class swimmers for reasons stretching from school , training for the long-term , lack of financial resources to cover the high cost of travel and all that goes with it and on to the choice of programs that favour long-course over short as they prepare for the ultimate dream and challenge : the Olympic Games . With that in mind , the first moves to rationalise the international swimming calendar have begun , the international federation having agreed to bold and sensible moves . Between Olympic Games in future , there will be one World Championships held in long-course in the middle of the Olympic cycle . Two @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ back value to both the world titles showcase and the continental long-course championships , which will also now be held every four years , in years 2 and 4 of the Olympic cycle . Janet Evans raced at world titles 4 years apart , while Katie Ledecky , left , races in an era in which the global showcase is held every two years , its impact diluted -- Photo by Peter Bick Joe Schooling -- by Patrick B. Kraemer Those previously guiding swimming at FINA , LEN and other bodies had for many years diluted swimming and the value of that most precious stock : champion . They organised the sport not on the basis of what was sustainable for swimmers and coaches and their programs but what suits their desire to be on the road as eternal , career sports-politicians and the most highly paid ' volunteers ' you will find in any realm in this world . The rot set in with a vengeance in 1999 when LEN switched to holding its European titles every two years and added a short-course showcase to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ FINA ( several of those at the helm of both bodies the same people ) followed suit : world titles l/c every two years , world s/c titles every two years . LEN was forced to shuffle its dates and got landed with a showcase that takes place three months before an Olympic Games once every four years . Damaging dilution all round has been the result . Now , the World Championships will shine like a beacon of peak form two years beyond and two years out from each Olympic Games once more . Further , four entries per natio will be allowed at future World Championships , with three allowed to qualify for finals , returning to the sport the potential for national clean sweeps . To take account of that change , trhe World Championships program will run elite heats for all events before development heats kick in . All entered in development heats and subsidised by international and regional federation support funds must report for finals and will be granted a seat in a dedicated section of the swimmers ' stand . The move @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ offered in conjunction with organisers of the Classic . Failure to attend finals and the chance to learn from the best in the world will result in loss of funding and a penalty stretching to exclusion from the championships . Time for action and a new start .... image by Patrick B. Kraemer A big plus for Pro-Swim is that it taps into existing meets and race schedules for domestic and regional rounds . The alternative would have been to create a new presence on a cluttered calendar that has suffered from what can only be described as a bolt-on diet . Swimmers will earn money based on placings through all qualification rounds , domestic rounds relying on home sponsors and funding , with qualifiers in regional rounds and the Pro-Swim Classic paid from a pot of US$10m funded in part by broadcast income , sponsors , the purchase of team entry by professional teams , ticket sales and corporate events . The Pro-Swim Classic will brings together the 250 ( each team is allowed to select one reserve , man or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Classic fortnight . The earning power of the athlete depends on what they swim and where they finish and where their team finishes . The budget allows for a swimmer at the lower end of the spectrum of commitment and success -- for example , racing several events in domestic rounds , two events at the regional round and two events in the first round of the knockouts and a relay at the three rounds of the Classic -- to earn at least $12 to $15,000 . At the high end , a swimmer racing at all three domestic rounds , excelling at the regional round and going all the way as a winner of one Classic solo race and a member of the winning Team in relays and the overall Pro-Swim Team prize could earn upwards of $250,000 in one season . In a deal struck with the international body , all podium placers at the Olympic Games and World Championships will be granted automatic entry to the Classic following their season of success , with only two requirements : that they race in one round @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their respective regional round and meet a time target in at least one race that confirms their form . At a press and teleconference today , Phelps was asked why new rules on branding had been brought in for swimming . He replied : We understand why at the Olympic Games there are certain restrictions on branding at a time when certain sponsors are paying vast sums of money to be a part of the Games , to help fund it and when representing your country is what it 's all about . What we wanted the Classic to do was work for the swimmers , the programs and the sponsors that back them and swimming . " We talked about it long and hard and in the end could see no reason for restricting the size of logos . In fact , we saw a lot of reasons , including how much fun you can have with the look and presentation of the sport , if you free up the creative process for sponsors . " Building blocks -- by Patrick B. Kraemer After knockout @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Classic final will be devoted to the " Team Trials " , a series of relays with a difference . The 10 professional teams paying for access to the Classic Team Trials will have no restrictions placed on them when it comes to the colours and branding on tracksuits and race suits . Each team may have up to 12 swimmers , the selection of which will require a spectrum of sprint to distance and stroke skills in order to mount serious challenge ( see highlights below ) . Those who make the Classic cut for solo racing but do not have a team place may wear the branding of personal sponsors as long as those apply with international rules ( such as no tobacco companies ) . For the first time , brands involved in the production and sale of alcohol , such as beer makers and wine producers , will be allowed to advertise and sponsor events in swimming . Phelps also welcomed a move by the global body for the sport to link the classic to the world championships by allowing any who finish @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the global long-course showcase if they do not secure national selection in domestic trials . Their place at the World Championships will not impact on the ability of nations to select a full quote of swimmers for each event . The Board was making its plans known after consultation with a team of business advisors that including representatives from the likes of Paribas and other investors . Broadcast representatives from a number of key networks , including ABC and NBC , the broadcasters that secured the rights for the first two Classics , have also played a key role in getting the show on the road . Caron laid out a vision of what the Perth venue will look like in Classic mode before others spoke to some of the highlights of a four-day event that promises a thrilling start to a new era , one in which swimmers themselves have insisted on contracts that oblige them to repay all earnings in the event of a positive test for banned substances that leads to a penalty at any time in their careers . A doping record will rule @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The model of one sponsor or organising committee fits all and controls all is replaced with a system of zones at the Classic that will be managed by experts in specific fields WATER : The race pool , suprises ahead on lane colours and coats of arms for teams , Classic organisation committee in partnership with sponsors and technical experts HAVEN : Training , warm-up and down pool , massage and rest areas . COAST : The stands -- public sales of tickets for the general public ; plus corporate seats , ticketed ; Parents and Friends of Swimming ( ticketed , no sale , including invitees , prize winners and officials ) ; Clubs ( ticketed , by invitation ) ; Teams ( allocated ) ; Media ( allocated ) . SHOAL -- a zone where the achievements of swimmers , coaches and others are celebrated in a showcase of achievements in and out of the pool , organised by run by the International Hall of Fame in partnership with sponsors .

POOL -- a hall for lectures , presentations , education and the exchange of ideas , organised by the World Swimming Coaches Association in partnership with sponsors ; part open access , some events requyiring an extra ticket beyond accredittation or purchase of general ticket to the competition . DRYLAND -- a meeting place , with catering facilities and rest areas , for athletes , Hall of Famers , sponsors , officials , parents and guests corporate and social as well as media MEDIA -- stands , mixed zones in Water and Haven , centres for broadcasters and written media , press and online and access to all other areas . FORUM -- access for all -- a marketplace for products , goods , books , souvenirs , a Classic Square in which talks and signings can take place ; plus " The Stump " for organised presentations and " The Drop " , a box in which anyone may submit a suggestion for how the event , organisation or format , might be improved . The forum will include catering/food stalls and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for spectators who have paid to enter the venue . Some stalls and events will be based on the free side of the ticket barrier . Innovative presentations , including billboard video presentations during race walk-ons , poolside interviews , skill demonstrations and crowd interaction are promised in between events . And in between race sessions , crowds will not want to leave the venue , the program stacked with day-long entertainment . Here are some of highlights ahead at the Pro-Swim Classic Final in Perth The first day will feature Team Trials , relays for men , women and mixed , including innovative events such as the Classic 500 Split -- a 10x50m relay of five men and five women . All events at the Pro-Swim Classic will include a series of knockout rounds ascending to head-to-head finals on the last day of the Classic Final . The Classic Final will feature the following events : Sprint -- Classic Dash -- a knockout skins event concluding in a head to head final Mid -- Classic 250 -- a 250m final on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ swims , the medley featuring a 200m medley ending with an extra 50m freestyle Distance -- Classic 500 -- knockout rounds of 3x300m swims lead to a showdown 1k final The knockout stages of all events will take place simultaneously . For example , the early rounds of the skins will be raced in five lanes next to three lanes devoted to the distance crew neduring their 3x300m challenges . In between the racing : Heritage Hour : a demonstration of pioneering moments in the sport , including re-enactions of events that did not survive the test of time , such as the Olympic obstacle race . " Skills " -- training sessions with local clubs and teams in which world-class coaches and swimmers pass on their knowledge , with crowd interaction , featuring a sprint special with Cameron McEvoy , Roland Schoeman , Florent Manaudou and Ben Proud on the men 's side and Britta Steffen , Libby Trickett , Therese Alshammar and Ranomi Kromowidjojo .

SHOAL The International Hall of Fame will have its inaugural Famers exhibition , the theme : So there it is , one way of thinking about how swimming might shape its future . There are lots of other ideas and models and variations on the theme out there as swimming reaches a watershed . Whatever they are , best think big and believe that swimming can , in the real words of Michael Phelps " make it to the next level " . The path of least resistance is certainly there for the sport to sink back into and settle for the same old , let the world cup limp along , tolerate poor decision-making among the leadership group at FINA , moan and shrug and believe you have no power to influence the realm you work in . Who knows what tomorrow 's swimming will look like . Some things we know , such @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cycle and the Olympic Games as the pinnacle of the sport , beyond the woeful state of governance and where that has left all Olympic sports when it comes to issues such as anti-doping . swimming is a stronger sport for having the long-course environment as a showcase for one of the most aesthetic , one of the toughest and among the purest ( you and a dense element , no tech , no engine , gear and pedal to make it something other than you ) sports out there . Above , I deliberately left out mention of l/c and s/c . The smart thing to do would be to go for long-course , held in the sun , harnessing the very best of the sport and the environment in which it can be held but no harm in a four-day festival of fun in having a short-course element to it . Planning required but nothin insurmountable . the future is yours , you the athletes who face a choice : take control of your affairs and have a say in the direction you 'd like swimming @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ small player whose sport comes alive big time once every four years with a couple of highlights in between that are built with and on structures that will never generate the kind of income required to make swimming a home for truly professional swimmers who work to be among hundreds not a handful who can earn a living from it . swimming has swum more than a quarter century past the point when swimmers were able to accept payments for racing and appearances without that breaking FINA rules ; swimming is more than a quarter of a century past the point at which sports politicians decided that swimming needed professional management and a professional office to go alongside what have turned into very well paid ' volunteers ' , many of whom pay no taxes on per diems they pocket for expenses they never incur . swimmers have been content to go with the flow and nod their caps to federations and others who hold the keys to governance domestic and international . swimmers have started to grow up , an aspect of the Rio Olympic Games @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at 31 , setting the record for the oldest Olympic swimming champion in a solo event just before Anthony Ervin raised the bar to 35 . Can swimming stand out in-season ? -- by Patrick B. Kraemer So , with all that said and done and much more than could be said , the questions are clear : Has the day come for you , athletes past and present -- talented in the pool and brimming with ideas and mindsets that could help swimming reach a new level as a sport -- to engage in the process of reform ? Do you have access to the decision-making process ? If not , do you want to do something about it ? If so , what ? Is swimming a sport that wants to dream big and set goals that it intends to achieve ? If so , what role will you play ? A SWimbledon of one kind or another is out there waiting to happen in one form or another . It wo n't happen if you , swimmers working @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or without FINA , ca n't find a way to seize the day . NB : By all means criticise any of the above but better still , offer your vision and help get the swimming future debate rolling .

Reasoning
×
The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('get locked out of being a part of the highlights of their sport'). It also exhibits a prevention interpretation, where the action prevents the NP object ('many') from participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate ('being a part of the highlights of their sport'). The verb 'get locked' implies a means of exerting force or pressure, fitting one of the semantic categories of verbs that can appear in the V1 slot. The NP object 'many' functions as a causee, and the sentence can be paraphrased to show prevention: '...many are prevented from being a part of the highlights of their sport as if by getting locked out.' Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

How does the ... perceive itself ; how does it look like from the other side of the lens , screen and bank of seats ? Will swimmers find their own representation and forge a new professional era ? - image by Patrick B. Kraemer SwimVortex continues a countdown of the most significant swimming stories of Olympic Year 2016 . We started with the heights of Katinka Hosszu and then considered the Canadian Comeback . Today , we turn to the opposite of progress in the pool , or in other words , the swimming selfie , poorly proportioned priorities and the art of talking to oneself . This has been a year in which FINA 's refusal to engage with key stakeholders in swimming has highlighted cracks in a system that has failed on some fundamental levels , including : a lack of recognition that the sport is growing up and professional athletes will want their own representatives -- not those hand-picked by a blazer here , a boss there -- to be at the top table arguing for the things that matter to the key asset of the sport : swimmers a refusal to even acknowledge let @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of a call for the international federation to submit to independent review of structures and finances so that swimming is run for swimmers and can grow in that spirit of service not self-service in office a failure to give experts , commissions and committees a free reign on the agendas they wish to set for the betterment of the sport ( not the betterment of themselves ) , without ' guidance ' from on high where that simply means ' politics ' not wisdom . ( L-R ) Fanny Teijonsalo of Finland and Javier Acevedo of Canada race in the mixed relay at world s/c titles in Windsor -- by Patrick B. Kraemer One fine day , Georges Kiehl , former French international and a man who has poured good will and effort into promoting the best of swimming for many a long year , will get a prize for perseverance . That he missed only one European Championship ( 1970 after returning from racing ) between racing for France at the 1962 continental showcase right through to London 2016 this year is a wonder in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ long after FINA had somehow managed to lose the rhyme and reason of short-course racing he 'd done so much to promote in that quiet way that unsung heroes often do makes him a candidate for canonisation . Kiehl , who recalled days of youth , triumph and tragedy on the 50th anniversary of the Bremen air disaster back in January this year , has enjoyed several roles since his racing days . Multi-lingual commentator , presenter , he was also media liaison for the European swimming league . In the early world cups in the days when Bonn held sway as short-course pressed for a greater presence in world swimming , Kiehl was among those exploring ways to bring the thrill and splash of the sport to audiences in between the big moments at a time when the four-year cycle Olympics , continental and regional highlight ; World Championships ; another regional highlight ; and back to the Gameshis presence at meets such as the Canet round of the Mare Nostrum Tour and today the Euro Meet in Luxembourg is not only useful to organisers but lends an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in his 70s these days . You 'd never know it . I do n't write any of this to embarrass Georges nor to make him our No18 in this SwimVortex choice of top 20 significant stories . It is just that he is symptomatic of an army of people who have long got things done in swimming , rarely got any credit as they help to keep the show on the road for the athletes while the likes of FINA keep the show going for ... well , themselves , for the most part . Kiehl is also among those who helped lay the foundations for short-course to become official , to become the realm of official world records in 1991 , to become a vehicle for change , with prize money the lot of the swimmer and twixt-tradition-peaks swimming presented as fast and furious and thrilling . And ... they 're off -- by Patrick B. Kraemer It all turned into " The World Cup " . It all turned into : let 's water down the quality , let 's pump up the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the family ( the ones in the dry suits ) , bring in the sponsor , slap Yakult on every cap and give the swimmers enough money to keep them quiet in the belief they 'd turn ' pro ' when they 'd done nothing of the kind and were living under the same yolk as those who had gone before them in almost all respects barring the ability to earn what for most was pocket money -- and still is . Just in case anyone should think I 'm selling long-course short , here 's an excellent piece on YourSwimlog.com headed Long-Course Swimming : Why You Should Embrace the Big Pool . Quite so -- Olivier Poiier-Lery setting out some of the key reasons why long-course makes the difference and will and should remain the ' real deal ' of the sport . Anyone , average swimmer or elite athlete who has ever gone from short to long and back again in the course of a day in training will know the feeling : water to treacle , breath to gasp -- and back again . It @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ then taking them off and doing it all over again while wondering what happened to your feet , that friendly angle of buoyancy and the extra catch and carry in your stroke . There 's a difference , no matter how hard you work , how much you develop your skills in both environments . One of the purposes of this piece , however , is to use short-course swimming as an example of where it can all go wrong when the political agenda and jockeying for position on lifestyle support trumps all else . In the book of swimming 's second thoughts : shiny suits , facilities rules , professionalisation of structures and personnel -- and short-course . Katinka Hosszu who by now will have a medal for every day of the year -- and some to spare -- by Patrick B. Kraemer The World Cup limped to an end in Hong Kong in late northern autumn . The fall , as Americans put it . Most appropriate for a failed product that needs more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ work ? Well , there the prize-money structure : for four years it has worked in favour of a handful and to the vast benefit of of one swimmer . Not Katinka Hosszu 's fault -- nor is she objecting to the model that works a treat -- and who can blame her . We can blame the custodians who allow it . Back in the days when Khiel was among those thinking about how to structure the prizes and the premium moments , no-one had in mind four or five all-China heats of an event when in China , three heats of Russians when in Russia and a multiple endless racer who would win it all , time and time and time again , the big prizes only truly open to thos who can step up to a top 3 place on at least three strokes as well as a range of distance , sprint to distance . I recall lots of moments in Bonn and Stockholm and Paris where the media bench was full . They did n't come to see that domestic marathon of heats @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the world top 50 , let alone top 200 ( many in the cup series this year fit that bill ) ; they did n't come to see a development meet . And nor did the athletes . They came to race the best not the remains of the best . Where is the scope to pay professional rates , in the cup competition as it stands , to the likes of Adam Peaty , Joe Schooling , Ryan Murphy , Ruta Meilutyte and many others ? Folk who , of course , can swim beyond their beat ... but not in world-record rattling form in 10 and more events none times a season . Hosszu is anything but average and yet there is a sense , backed by the evidence of points , that FINA wants mediocrity because in opting for that it can have its cake and eat it , tell the world and its broadcasters that swimmers can be like tennis players , constantly on the top and in the headlines . It wo n't wash . Take Peaty . The British ace , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the 2016 Olympic Games , just bypassed the whole of the post-Rio global short-course season . Why ? Adam Peaty celebrates -- by Patrick B. Kraemer " At the end of the day , no-one cares about short-course in Britain . There 's no coverage of it and what people want to know about is the Olympic Games and the World long-course Championships . I think swimming is getting there as a sport , climbing up the ranking of sports to another level but only when it comes to the Olympic Games and then the World long-course . " August to November , 8 or 9 events , full world-championship programs . Attractive ? " The world cup is n't working . It is ridiculous and embarrasing . They FINA and the sponsor the federation persuaded to sign up should put that money to good use , anywhere else in the sport . It 's completely the wrong time of the season for me and for most swimmers . Put it in January and February if you have to ; make it one of those good @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ah ! Season ! Swimming is a sport for all seasons but none , right now , when you look at the chaos of a calendar that serves to demote , not promote , swimming and swimmers . We are not talking about the seasons that each of you may recognise and feel familiar with . We 're talking about the seasons that exist in other sports that are recognised and followed by the big audience in the wider world . Peaty hits the nail on the head when he raises the word season and raises the timing of events . He then adds : " No-one turns up to it and that 's why they put so much money into thinking that people will have to come to make a living . But they do n't . I do n't blame the people that do go to them the cup rounds because the money is good and they have to make a living but FINA needs to do something about that because it clearly is n't working . " Photo by Patrick B. Kraemer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The solution is not to simply revamp the world cup . What is required is a fundamental rethink of the swimming calendar at world-class elite level and where that fits into all those events , from regional and continental events to domestic trials and nationals , college swimming and on down through the ranks of juniors and developers , international and domestic . As things stand , there is no structure , no logic and no flow that makes sense to anyone outside the sport . And even within it , the voice of opposition , so long dormant , is starting to be heard . FINA 's obsession with ' more is more ' has taken a toll . The federation 's attempt to steer more attention to and place more value on short-course has failed . Says Peaty : " For me it is all about long-course . That 's it : all people want to see it long-course because that 's what the Olympics is and what the majors are . I 'd rather win gold or multiple golds in Hungary next year ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ world s/c event . " He adds : " The thing is , it is a different sport , short-course . I do n't do world cups because its unrelatable . It 's about people going there for the money and it 's not what it should be about . You 've got to have passion and that 's where the difference is made at long-course : 100% passion and dedication or you wo n't be there winning big medals . " Adam Peaty -- by Patrick B. Kraemer I do n't raise the direct issue of access to sports governance and the decision-making process with Peaty , a man on whom you need not try any sheep-dog-style questions that seek to corral the answers to suit whatever they intend to suit . He knows his own mind -- and he would one day like to put that to good use as a leader in his sport on dryland . His interest rests in a better deal for athletes and the promotion of values he holds dear and what he feels is important in the sport @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ now where people will do anything to get on YouTube , on Facebook and get noticed through some viral video doing something absolutely stupid . Obviously you should have your fun as a kid but its whether that stays with you as an adult . " So what to do about it and what relevance to swimming ? " I 'd love to have a position where I could have a positive impact on the sport , not just on people . I think the sport needs some people who have been there and done it , so I 'm thinking of going into that area as well . Maybe in the IOC or FINA where you can absolutely make a difference and change that culture and give 100% to that sport and know what 's 100% right and you 'd be willing to do anything to make the sport right and do the best by the athletes and those who work at it every single day . " Recently in swimming governance it just has n't been like that . I think it has to change @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ come the time . That 's eight years away he intends to battle for top honours until the 2024 Olympic Games and alot can change in eight years so you hope that others will press for change , too , along the way . " Alex Baumann , one of the greats of medley swimming Photo compilation : depicted on a Canadian bus ; in a poster ; in action , the Prague astronomical clock ; and with coach Tihanyi Fascinating prospects : imagine a day when the likes of Peaty , Anthony Ervin , Michael Phelps , Mack Horton and Co get a direct say in the rights of athletes , in what matters to them , in what values they hold most dear . Go back in history and you find the likes of Michael Gross and Alex Baumann and Shane Gould and Debbie Meyer and Nancy Hogshead and ... and many others ... putting keen minds to the topic of how best swimming might be run and what the sport 's priorities should be and how one might go about delivering that . You @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ altogether , lost to the sport ) nor Baumann ( lost to swimming in a direct sense but playing leading roles in sport in his post-swimmer career ) nor a great many others got anywhere near to the decision-making process in swimming . Will Phelps ? Will Peaty ? Will Ervin ? Will so many others , coach leaders in the mix , who would have so much to contribute ? Time will tell but unless FINA is either radically reformed or replaced , they will not have access to such things . The entire structure is built to make sure that can not be , while ' athlete representative ' , such as an athlete leader on the FINA Bureau , is little more than a token measure in the midst of a culture that prizes assimilation of any who join ' the family ' over just about all else . New and sound ideas , let alone saying ' actually , I disagree ' , have little chance of flourishing . Since Rio 2016 , I have asked 25 Olympic finalists , just over half @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the athletes sitting on commissions at FINA and relatied continental bodies . Go ! -- by Patrick B. Kraemer To a man and a woman the reply was ' No ' . Of the 25 , 20 noted that they had never been asked and never been consulted on any issue related to athlete well-being , from the timing of finals in Rio to the kind of blocks that are used , to the scheduling of competitions and on to issues such as the distribution of prize money at major events and the obligation to wear kit with the FINA sponsor on it even when that may place the athlete in direct conflict with the personal sponsor that pays the swimmer 's way through the sport . So how , then does FINA go about seeking information on what athletes want , how more might make it to the cup ? Well , there 's the athlete 's commission but that 's not " current crew " . What FINA has engaged in is a process that lacks transparency and anything like a scientific approach . A @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : go out into the world of swimmers and return with the messages they have for us , partly so we can use that to do a quick spruce up but largely go and as things stand and partly so we can say ' well , we did ask and that 's what the athletes wanted ' . But what is it that they want for an event in between the twin peaks ? what does swimming want to showcase ? what is it the sport wants to reward ? what does it want to hold up as ' peak performance ' ? what other ways can the sport be measured in to take away the need to always be either in peak form or boring . what is its highlight , where is weight and worth ? is quantity to be valued over quality ? what is the rationale behind prizing excellent training sets across the board over the few focussed moments of higher excellence ? do you want a wider audience ? do you want a wider catchment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the swimmer , want to become part of a professional network of elite swimmers ? does your sport showcase your excellence in a way that makes swimming accessible and helps spread the word of an activity that transcends racing and health and entertainment , the wider benefits to be had stretching all the way to saving lives ? can swimming do much better by you and the potential of professionalism ? Splash -- by Patrick B. Kraemer Format matters . Swimming is a sport that keeps telling the deaf ear of FINA and other guardians that it needs to train in private and get on with life beyond the lights at certain times of the year ; swimming is a sport crying out for calendar reform ; swimming is a sport left looking for new ways to grow beyond Mount Olympus and World Championships , leagues and complex points systems having proved unappealing and ineffective as a magnet even with money as incentive . Can a completely new concept work ? And where would short-course fit in ? We considered those issues here at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we came up with as a possible way forward , a way out of the twixt-peak malaise . It was published not as a commandment but as an invitation to sit at the round table and imagine what kind of swimming world you would like to see . That conversation has not yet reached the custodians of the sport . If sooner or later , swimmers and coaches want something different , however , they may well have to organise it themselves unless FINA has an epiphany . Many of you read " A great day out at SWimbledon " when it was published on November 15 . You need not read on . Below is the same piece repeated for those who missed it the first time round and are interested in the topic at hand : reform . Others believe the world cup is still the best way of organising a regular tour-style gathering and spread swimming across the globe , even if , as is the case @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . SwimVortex is aware that swimmers have been discussing what to do about the unhappy state of their in-season world . Most heartening news , for it is swimmers who must , ultimately , own change , move change and work for a professional future that will not be delivered through any of the vehicles currently available to them . Below is a fictional glimpse of a different pool in a time of professional swimmers and improved governance . As you read , please keep in mind the following : NB : references to formats and distances and strokes in the following should not be read as concrete suggestions : this is simply a caricature-style demonstration of the scope swimming has to do something different in a constructive manner beyond the championship moments and therefore lessen the impact of comparisons that need not be ; the moment is left to itself , the with challenge and fun and education and entertainment and community all considered , as are the traditions , history and the lore of the sport . That a radical shake-up is required in swimming is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ those who believe nothing , or little , needs to change . As I suggested here , tinkering wo n't get the job done . The status quo and the structures of governance that exist are not set up to favour a professional swimming realm that has the interests , welfare and pockets of athletes at the top of the mission statement . That will almost certainly mean a long list of reasons from some quarters why something like the below can not and should not and ' will not ' be done . No matter . It will , ultimately , come down to what swimmers want and whether that includes their freedom from total federation control , freedom to make their own choices , the desire to own their sport and to benefit from a professional era that is yet to make it to the swimming realm . Precisely what the specific formats and timings of any change should be , would , of course , have to be the subject of much wider discussion with those steeped in the guidance , preparation and schedules of athletes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ seasons and where a new style of annual competitions might fit in the calendar to the benefit of swimmers and their greater goals will the way be clear to consider the kind of arena , entertainment and presentation that would suit both live and remote audiences and take swimming to a new level and a realm more recognisable and accessible to the world that did not grow up in the pool . the below is a fictional account in which the roles of swimmers and what they say in the script are also fictional ; they are there as part of the theatre set and play I 'm told that athletes do n't have the capacity to get through an article of this length . I do n't believe that . Athletes know well that life is not a tweet . They know if they put into their training the 2min Vs the 20min effort , they can kiss goodbye to unlocking their potential . Here 's a good reason to stretch your brain cells beyond " 10 reasons why a fart can make a training set " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sprint Classic ahoy -- Anthony Ervin and Nathan Adrian will be among those gunning for dosh in the dash -- by Patrick B. Kraemer Roll-up , roll-up . The Pro-Swim Classic is born . Some have dubbed it Swimbledon : swimming 's attempt to create a race-for-wages series that starts with domestic and regional qualification rounds leading to a two-week festival of three events every year around late January and February . And where we say swimming , read swimmers , for the athletes themselves own the biggest stake in ProSwim Classic and have had the biggest say in what is valuable to them in-season and what they feel will sell to the wider world . That goes for current athletes and former greats of the sport , starting with the founder members of the Classic , the " Final 4 Club " . Backing for ProSwim was sought from all who ever finished in the top four in an an Olympic swimming final . These greats of the sport are the first elders of a new era in the sport in which they excelled . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has a Final 8 Club for the venerated of their sport . The Grand Slam format at the helm of professional tennis does not translate to a sport whose summit is held every four years , the Olympics , with a long-course World Championships showcase every two years in between , the traditions of those peak moments much treasured . However , the decline of the swimming world cup that in its latter years made a handful of swimmers wealthy , rated quantity over quality and failed to attract support from the vast majority of world-class swimmers , the damage of dilution prompting a rethink in the ranks of athletes , coaches , sponsors , broadcasters and others . Taking the plunge into a professional era by Patrick B. Kraemer In the absence of any response from FINA , the World Swimming Association and the Professional Swimmers ' Association secured a multi-million golden handshake from Hancock Prospecting and organisers of the Classic announced a year ago their intention to get the show started this season , Australia the first host of the Classic Final and Fortnight @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , domestic and regional qualification rounds leading to the Classic , a fortnight of world-class swimming and much more that brings the world swimming community together in an aquatic forum like none before . Two events three days long are followed by the Pro-Swim Final held over four days , the first of which will be held in Perth , Westerm Australia afrer knockout stages in Brisbane and Sydney . Swimmers will have their nation recognised but they will race for a professional team . There are two sides to Pro-Swim : in domestic rounds , with prize money stretched from that level right through to the Classic fortnight , swimmers can qualify as individuals in the traditional competition program . The Classic will be a Professional teams event including knockout stages in solo events with a twist , in sprint , mid and distance . The Classic will also feature opening days at each of the three rounds dedicated to relays with a difference . December will serve as the annual transfer window for Classic Teams to finalise their squads after the domestic and regional rounds of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the first 10 Classic Teams , each with 24 swimmers , 12 men and 12 women , have been declared , selection to any squad requiring a world top 30 ranking as of December 1 , the start of transfer season . The first ProSwim Class Squads are : Team Discovery ; The Energy Squad ; Volvic Victors ; Team Arena ; Team Speedo ; FINIS Flyers ; Phillips 66 ; House Charity ; Aquasphere Aquatics ; and The SwimZi Squadron . Swimmers who do not find a place on a team ( their incentive to rise up the rankings and gain access to the team element of the Classic ) will race in solo events and earn prize money in precisely the same way . The only difference is that most of them will not race in relays and their swims will not count for points that go towards the overall Pro-Team prizes . Some of those who are not part of a Pro team can be elected onto teams by fellow swimmers for specific events on Team Trials Day . Nathan @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Olympic podium in 2016 -- by Patrick B. Kraemer A new era has required not only additions to the swimming rule book but a rewrite of the existing law of the sport . The Professional Swimmers Association , working with World Swimming Association , Classic organisers and the Swimming Oversight Senate ( SOS ) , a new independent watchdog for the sport , have laid down rules of engagement that control the activities of agents and others . For its part , the international federation agreed to groundbreaking changes in the rule book to cover the demands of a new era and the Classic . Among the most significant changes : a lifting of restrictions on the size and shape of logos permission , for the first time , for alcoholic drink makers access to the sport through advertising Australian vintners have expressed interest in partnerships in two of the Classic 's " Islands " of activity , namely the " Dryland " , a meeting lounge , with catering , where athletes , Hall of Famers , sponsors , officials , parents and guests @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and " Fame " , an exhibition that will be organised by the International Hall of Fame at every Classic in celebration of the achievements of swimmers , coaches and others in swimming . ISHOF will also host annual induction ceremonies during the Classic , the thread of history linking former greats and contributors to the current wave of talent . Michael Phelps -- who took the plunge for clean sport and unlocked the door marked " Time for Athletes To Be Heard " -- by Patrick B. Kraemer Adam Peaty ( GBR ) -- by Patrick B. Kraemer The Pro-Swim Classic Board have made a priority of keeping costs under control , consideration granted to the carbon footprint of the sport , a " Sustainable Swimming World In Motion " to be launched during the first Classic Final . With lifestyles , training commitments , carbon footprints and money in mind , organisers also opted not to create new events for qualifications rounds . Meet organisers from around the world were asked to apply for domestic and regional " Pro-Swim Qualifier " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and avoiding costly and unnecessary additions to the competition calendar . As such , in January , the Austin round of the Arena Pro-Swim meet served as a regional qualification round for the Americas , while the Euro Meet in Luxembourg hosted Europe 's regional qualifier . The host of next year 's final will be Long Beach in Califiornia after knockouts at Mission Viejo and Arizona State University , while Paris , Rome and London are among parties interested in hosting the event in its third year . Classic organisers and sponsors have placed emphasis on holding the events in locations with a strong swimming tradition , backed by success in the pool and audience . Discussions continue over whether to have fixed venues for the event in the way the Grand Slams in tennis , Opens in golf and F1 grand prix events follow a regular circuit and in so doing establish traditions that transcend the race , help develop crowd-friendly environments and keep costs at bay . During a press and teleconference today , Classic Board member Michael Phelps noted : " We @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ year when the best of the sport gathers in one place and has a party in the pool , with racing , exchange of ideas , guidance on safety , the latest trends and products and some great days out for what we intend to be a growing base of swimming fans . Its our church if you like and we have to go out and find those followers . James Guy races Michael Phelps in the last race of the GOAT 's career -- by Patrick B. Kraemer Michael Phelps by Craig Lord He added : " We did n't want this to be a match of other championship moments . There 's no need to replicate those . The Olympics and World long-course Championships are long-established , they 're great , they 're not going away and they will remain the peak moments of our sport , a time when swimmers stand up and get counted for country , team and self . " He then explained the thinking behind the Classic : " What swimming needed was a showcase that could achieve several @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ great swimmers to have acess to great international competition based on their world ranking not the strength or whim of their home federations . Many of us were lucky on that score but many are not and get locked out of being a part of the highlights of their sport even though they 're are serious athletes right up there with the best in the world . " We also wanted to create an annual one-stop show for anyone who loves swimming , a must on the calendar for swimmers , coaches , parents , fans and the officials , sponsors , merchandisers and marketeers who make all of this possible in a way that truly promotes our great sport up the ranking . We wanted to create an event with an impact that ripples well beyond the race , all the way out to swiming for life , safety and health . There is so much untapped potential in our sport . " He set those out as follows : provide a showcase in which swimmers have the majority stake and say and step up into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ provide a living wage for professional swimmers ; provide a regular swimming spectacle at which athletes can put their skills on show beyond the summer championship moments ; provide a format that delivers instant results without the need to calculate who won ; provide a forum for ideas and skills and different ways of showing what a great sport swimming is ; provide regular haunts for that spectacle and therefore have the racing as the heart of something bigger , a show and a great day out for the fans , a way of reaching new people and bringing them to the water and intriducing them to a sport that 's for life and saves lives ; provide domestic and regional rounds that do n't require swimmers to travel extensively when being home for uninterrupted periods of training is the right thing for them and to do that at times of the year that fit the training cycle and in formats that are challenging , fun and great for fans and the new fans we want to get through the door and loving @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ headline sponsor , is now working in partnership with other backers , including swimming 's traditional partners such as kit makers and timing outfits , to help to kick start a new era in swimming after the old World Cup proved a poor vehicle for promoting the sport and supporting professionalism among swimmers . The cup scanned across four continents , nine events and three months , rendering the " tour " out of bounds for the vast majority of world-class swimmers for reasons stretching from school , training for the long-term , lack of financial resources to cover the high cost of travel and all that goes with it and on to the choice of programs that favour long-course over short as they prepare for the ultimate dream and challenge : the Olympic Games . With that in mind , the first moves to rationalise the international swimming calendar have begun , the international federation having agreed to bold and sensible moves . Between Olympic Games in future , there will be one World Championships held in long-course in the middle of the Olympic cycle . Two @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ back value to both the world titles showcase and the continental long-course championships , which will also now be held every four years , in years 2 and 4 of the Olympic cycle . Janet Evans raced at world titles 4 years apart , while Katie Ledecky , left , races in an era in which the global showcase is held every two years , its impact diluted -- Photo by Peter Bick Joe Schooling -- by Patrick B. Kraemer Those previously guiding swimming at FINA , LEN and other bodies had for many years diluted swimming and the value of that most precious stock : champion . They organised the sport not on the basis of what was sustainable for swimmers and coaches and their programs but what suits their desire to be on the road as eternal , career sports-politicians and the most highly paid ' volunteers ' you will find in any realm in this world . The rot set in with a vengeance in 1999 when LEN switched to holding its European titles every two years and added a short-course showcase to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ FINA ( several of those at the helm of both bodies the same people ) followed suit : world titles l/c every two years , world s/c titles every two years . LEN was forced to shuffle its dates and got landed with a showcase that takes place three months before an Olympic Games once every four years . Damaging dilution all round has been the result . Now , the World Championships will shine like a beacon of peak form two years beyond and two years out from each Olympic Games once more . Further , four entries per natio will be allowed at future World Championships , with three allowed to qualify for finals , returning to the sport the potential for national clean sweeps . To take account of that change , trhe World Championships program will run elite heats for all events before development heats kick in . All entered in development heats and subsidised by international and regional federation support funds must report for finals and will be granted a seat in a dedicated section of the swimmers ' stand . The move @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ offered in conjunction with organisers of the Classic . Failure to attend finals and the chance to learn from the best in the world will result in loss of funding and a penalty stretching to exclusion from the championships . Time for action and a new start .... image by Patrick B. Kraemer A big plus for Pro-Swim is that it taps into existing meets and race schedules for domestic and regional rounds . The alternative would have been to create a new presence on a cluttered calendar that has suffered from what can only be described as a bolt-on diet . Swimmers will earn money based on placings through all qualification rounds , domestic rounds relying on home sponsors and funding , with qualifiers in regional rounds and the Pro-Swim Classic paid from a pot of US$10m funded in part by broadcast income , sponsors , the purchase of team entry by professional teams , ticket sales and corporate events . The Pro-Swim Classic will brings together the 250 ( each team is allowed to select one reserve , man or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Classic fortnight . The earning power of the athlete depends on what they swim and where they finish and where their team finishes . The budget allows for a swimmer at the lower end of the spectrum of commitment and success -- for example , racing several events in domestic rounds , two events at the regional round and two events in the first round of the knockouts and a relay at the three rounds of the Classic -- to earn at least $12 to $15,000 . At the high end , a swimmer racing at all three domestic rounds , excelling at the regional round and going all the way as a winner of one Classic solo race and a member of the winning Team in relays and the overall Pro-Swim Team prize could earn upwards of $250,000 in one season . In a deal struck with the international body , all podium placers at the Olympic Games and World Championships will be granted automatic entry to the Classic following their season of success , with only two requirements : that they race in one round @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their respective regional round and meet a time target in at least one race that confirms their form . At a press and teleconference today , Phelps was asked why new rules on branding had been brought in for swimming . He replied : We understand why at the Olympic Games there are certain restrictions on branding at a time when certain sponsors are paying vast sums of money to be a part of the Games , to help fund it and when representing your country is what it 's all about . What we wanted the Classic to do was work for the swimmers , the programs and the sponsors that back them and swimming . " We talked about it long and hard and in the end could see no reason for restricting the size of logos . In fact , we saw a lot of reasons , including how much fun you can have with the look and presentation of the sport , if you free up the creative process for sponsors . " Building blocks -- by Patrick B. Kraemer After knockout @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Classic final will be devoted to the " Team Trials " , a series of relays with a difference . The 10 professional teams paying for access to the Classic Team Trials will have no restrictions placed on them when it comes to the colours and branding on tracksuits and race suits . Each team may have up to 12 swimmers , the selection of which will require a spectrum of sprint to distance and stroke skills in order to mount serious challenge ( see highlights below ) . Those who make the Classic cut for solo racing but do not have a team place may wear the branding of personal sponsors as long as those apply with international rules ( such as no tobacco companies ) . For the first time , brands involved in the production and sale of alcohol , such as beer makers and wine producers , will be allowed to advertise and sponsor events in swimming . Phelps also welcomed a move by the global body for the sport to link the classic to the world championships by allowing any who finish @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the global long-course showcase if they do not secure national selection in domestic trials . Their place at the World Championships will not impact on the ability of nations to select a full quote of swimmers for each event . The Board was making its plans known after consultation with a team of business advisors that including representatives from the likes of Paribas and other investors . Broadcast representatives from a number of key networks , including ABC and NBC , the broadcasters that secured the rights for the first two Classics , have also played a key role in getting the show on the road . Caron laid out a vision of what the Perth venue will look like in Classic mode before others spoke to some of the highlights of a four-day event that promises a thrilling start to a new era , one in which swimmers themselves have insisted on contracts that oblige them to repay all earnings in the event of a positive test for banned substances that leads to a penalty at any time in their careers .

Innovative presentations , including billboard video presentations during race walk-ons , poolside interviews , skill demonstrations and crowd interaction are promised in between events . And in between race sessions , crowds will not want to leave the venue , the program stacked with day-long entertainment . Here are some of highlights ahead at the Pro-Swim Classic Final in Perth The first day will feature Team Trials , relays for men , women and mixed , including innovative events such as the Classic 500 Split -- a 10x50m relay of five men and five women . All events at the Pro-Swim Classic will include a series of knockout rounds ascending to head-to-head finals on the last day of the Classic Final .

SHOAL The International Hall of Fame will have its inaugural Famers exhibition , the theme : So there it is , one way of thinking about how swimming might shape its future . There are lots of other ideas and models and variations on the theme out there as swimming reaches a watershed . Whatever they are , best think big and believe that swimming can , in the real words of Michael Phelps " make it to the next level " . The path of least resistance is certainly there for the sport to sink back into and settle for the same old , let the world cup limp along , tolerate poor decision-making among the leadership group at FINA , moan and shrug and believe you have no power to influence the realm you work in . Who knows what tomorrow 's swimming will look like . Some things we know , such @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cycle and the Olympic Games as the pinnacle of the sport , beyond the woeful state of governance and where that has left all Olympic sports when it comes to issues such as anti-doping . swimming is a stronger sport for having the long-course environment as a showcase for one of the most aesthetic , one of the toughest and among the purest ( you and a dense element , no tech , no engine , gear and pedal to make it something other than you ) sports out there . Above , I deliberately left out mention of l/c and s/c . The smart thing to do would be to go for long-course , held in the sun , harnessing the very best of the sport and the environment in which it can be held but no harm in a four-day festival of fun in having a short-course element to it . Planning required but nothin insurmountable . the future is yours , you the athletes who face a choice : take control of your affairs and have a say in the direction you 'd like swimming @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ small player whose sport comes alive big time once every four years with a couple of highlights in between that are built with and on structures that will never generate the kind of income required to make swimming a home for truly professional swimmers who work to be among hundreds not a handful who can earn a living from it . swimming has swum more than a quarter century past the point when swimmers were able to accept payments for racing and appearances without that breaking FINA rules ; swimming is more than a quarter of a century past the point at which sports politicians decided that swimming needed professional management and a professional office to go alongside what have turned into very well paid ' volunteers ' , many of whom pay no taxes on per diems they pocket for expenses they never incur . swimmers have been content to go with the flow and nod their caps to federations and others who hold the keys to governance domestic and international . swimmers have started to grow up , an aspect of the Rio Olympic Games @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at 31 , setting the record for the oldest Olympic swimming champion in a solo event just before Anthony Ervin raised the bar to 35 . Can swimming stand out in-season ? -- by Patrick B. Kraemer So , with all that said and done and much more than could be said , the questions are clear : Has the day come for you , athletes past and present -- talented in the pool and brimming with ideas and mindsets that could help swimming reach a new level as a sport -- to engage in the process of reform ? Do you have access to the decision-making process ? If not , do you want to do something about it ? If so , what ? Is swimming a sport that wants to dream big and set goals that it intends to achieve ? If so , what role will you play ? A SWimbledon of one kind or another is out there waiting to happen in one form or another . It wo n't happen if you , swimmers working @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or without FINA , ca n't find a way to seize the day . NB : By all means criticise any of the above but better still , offer your vision and help get the swimming future debate rolling .

And almost one in 10 admit they always feel guilty if they cancel or do n't show up to a social event . The results also show that , unsurprisingly , winter is a popular time for JOMO -- four in 10 people avoid gatherings so they do n't have to face the cold weather . Thirty-one per cent stay in so they do n't spend any money , 29 per cent do n't want to mingle with people they 're not keen on , and 16 per cent do n't like meeting new people at all .

It also emerged that the most popular ways to cosy-up during winter is to change into comfy clothes such as PJs ( 31 percent ) or get snug in front of a fire ( 30 percent ) . Watching TV ( 27 percent ) , lighting candles or incense ( 19 percent ) , home-cooked food ( 19 percent ) , warm lighting ( 17 percent ) and getting wrapped-up in a favourite blanket ( 15 percent ) are also among the most popular things people do to get comfy at home during the winter months . Watching boxsets and movies is how most of those polled choose to unwind at home , followed by reading and listening to music . Contura Style and Marketing Director , Catharina Bjorkman , said : " An intrinsic part of achieving Hygge at home ( we call it ' Mysig ' in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " There is a huge focus on Hygge through the winter months and our research shows that the UK is really latching on to the concept and its benefits too . " Most houses in Scandinavia have wood burning stoves as , in addition to generating the all-important heat , the flickering flames and crackling wood create a relaxing atmosphere and the ideal environment to curl up with a hot drink and a book or enjoy some other indoor activity . " But spending time indoors during winter does n't mean having to be glued to the phone , tablet or TV -- In Sweden , we prefer to enjoy a digital detox during the darker months and focus on good company and good food . " A cosy evening with your partner , friends or family in front of the fire is the essence of Hygge , as those who enjoy JOMO will know ! " |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('The average adult gets invited to 29 social events each year and will use an excuse to get out of going to 14 of them'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the subject uses an excuse to prevent themselves from going to the events. The verb 'get' in this context can be seen as using a nonspecific means to achieve the goal, fitting one of the categories of verbs that can appear in the V1 slot. The NP object is implied (the average adult themselves), functioning as a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate ('going to 14 of them'). Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

This aligns with the prevention interpretation of the construction.

Disqualification from driving is already used in England and Wales as a means of enforcement if a parent withholds child maintenance .

I guess what i 'm saying is , if we get another CB and anyone has to leave .. bye Mike . 4 ) Phil Jones ' kung fu kick celebration in the background after the second goal was the second best thing i 've seen live , only behind LVGs dive vs Arsenal .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('They' + 'price' + 'parents' + 'out of sending their children to the school'). It also induces a prevention interpretation, meaning 'They are going to prevent parents from sending their children to the school by means of pricing.' The verb 'price' can be classified under 'By means of exerting force or pressure, sometimes understood metaphorically.' The NP object 'parents' functions as a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'sending their children to the school.'

Hundreds of parents ... a Nottingham school have signed a petition against changes to the uniform - saying it will make buying school clothes too expensive . Redhill Academy , in Arnold , wants to introduce trousers and skirts with the school logo on , meaning mums and dads will have to buy them from a specific retailer . They cost between ? 16 and ? 19 - and it will be compulsory for all children in Years 7 to 11 to have them from next September . The petition was set up after a letter was sent to parents explaining the changes last Tuesday , and has already collected more than 375 signatures . The school has just over 1,000 pupils affected by the move , which it says is to provide ' consistency ' . Several parents have also contacted the Post to express their disgust . Carly Armstrong , whose 14-year-old son Jordan is in Year 9 , said the trousers would cost her much more than those she can currently buy from Asda for just a few pounds . She said : " These trousers are very expensive , but it 's going @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the children have to wear blazers , and are n't allowed to take them off in school unless it 's very warm , so the blazer will just cover the badge on the trousers anyway .

" I do n't just buy one pair either , I buy three or four pairs of trousers for them for when the others are in the wash . " And by the time I 've bought all the other things for school , like shoes and bags , it all adds up . " If the school wants a logo on the trousers , they should just sell the badges for people to sew on themselves .

" Lisa Richardson , 39 , whose 11-year-old daughter Millie is in Year 7 , said she had only just bought Millie 's school trousers , and had been hoping to get a few years of wear out of them . " Buying school uniform and all the extras is expensive enough anyway , " she said . " My daughter is also very slim but tall and it is hard finding places that will have trousers that fit her . " The blazer will end up covering the logo and teachers will be wasting their time checking they 've got the right trousers or skirts on .

" ' Longer lasting ' clothing really is not an issue for this reason . " Sharon Turton , mum to Luke , 15 , and Zoe , 12 , agreed , saying : " I pride myself on how smart my children look when I send them to school . These trousers wo n't make them look any smarter .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('They' + 'price' + 'parents' + 'out of sending their children to the school'). It also induces a prevention interpretation, meaning 'They are going to prevent parents from sending their children to the school by means of pricing.' The verb 'price' fits into the category of exerting force or pressure (metaphorically), and the NP object 'parents' functions as a causee. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Hundreds of parents ... a Nottingham school have signed a petition against changes to the uniform - saying it will make buying school clothes too expensive . Redhill Academy , in Arnold , wants to introduce trousers and skirts with the school logo on , meaning mums and dads will have to buy them from a specific retailer . They cost between ? 16 and ? 19 - and it will be compulsory for all children in Years 7 to 11 to have them from next September . The petition was set up after a letter was sent to parents explaining the changes last Tuesday , and has already collected more than 375 signatures . The school has just over 1,000 pupils affected by the move , which it says is to provide ' consistency ' . Several parents have also contacted the Post to express their disgust . Carly Armstrong , whose 14-year-old son Jordan is in Year 9 , said the trousers would cost her much more than those she can currently buy from Asda for just a few pounds . She said : " These trousers are very expensive , but it 's going @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the children have to wear blazers , and are n't allowed to take them off in school unless it 's very warm , so the blazer will just cover the badge on the trousers anyway .

" I do n't just buy one pair either , I buy three or four pairs of trousers for them for when the others are in the wash . " And by the time I 've bought all the other things for school , like shoes and bags , it all adds up . " If the school wants a logo on the trousers , they should just sell the badges for people to sew on themselves . " Mum-of-three Kate Hart , 41 , currently has two children at the school , Brad , who is in Year 11 , and Lauren , who is in Year 8 . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rapidly growing children , it is plainly not cost effective to comply with the new rules .

" Lisa Richardson , 39 , whose 11-year-old daughter Millie is in Year 7 , said she had only just bought Millie 's school trousers , and had been hoping to get a few years of wear out of them . " Buying school uniform and all the extras is expensive enough anyway , " she said . " My daughter is also very slim but tall and it is hard finding places that will have trousers that fit her .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not give rise to either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of nothing' is a prepositional phrase modifying 'goal', not a VP[-ing] predicate.

Sadio Mane will head to the Africa Cup of Nations with Senegal in January But the in-form forward wo n't miss the Reds as much as they will miss him . Mane , 24 , believes the return of Daniel Sturridge from injury and Philippe Coutinho 's impending comeback from an ankle ligament problem can help fill the void he will leave when he goes to Gabon . He claims that duo will make the title chasing Reds a better side , even taking into account his absence . At the moment that seems like wishful thinking on Mane 's part . There is no doubting Liverpool will be a weaker side without him when he leaves after facing Sunderland on January 2 . He has fitted in seemlessly at Anfield since arriving for ? 34m from Southampton in the summer and scored his eighth league goal of the season to earn a vital win over Merseyside neighbours Everton on Monday night . GETTY Sadio Mane will be hoping to lead Senegal to glory in Gabon GETTY Sadio Mane says @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ return " It will not be easy for me to go with Senegal next month " Sadio Mane " It will not be easy for me to go with Senegal next month , " Mane said . " I would love to carry on playing with my team-mates and help my team , but I think they will understand because it is my country and it is my dream . " I will be wishing them good luck , but without me the team will be the same . Even better I think . They will cope . " Coutinho will come back . Joel Matip will come back and Sturridge is back now . " Sturridge 's return from a calf injury is perfect timing and his late appearance off the bench led to Mane 's winner at Goodison Park . It was the England striker 's determination that found the space for a shot came back off the post to allow Mane the easiest of finishes . Tuesday , 20th December 2016 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as they trained after their last-gasp win over Everton last night . 1 / 16 GETTY Liverpool train after Everton win " I am very happy for him ( Sturridge ) , it has not been easy for him being out , he has had a lot of injuries , " said Mane . " But you know he can deliver important performances for the team . That is why the team will be strong . " But while Sturridge is a valuable asset for the Reds and still one of the best strikers in the Premier League on his day , he is a very different player to Mane . He can create a goal out of nothing like Mane , but does not deliver the same volume of attacking runs and is still clearly adapting to boss Jurgen Klopp 's pressing tactics without the ball . Liverpool fans will still be hoping Senegal do n't progress beyond the group stages next month as only an early exit would give Mane a chance of being back to face Chelsea on January @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Manchester United on January 15 though along with both legs of thier EFL Cup semi-final against his former club Southampton . Liverpool hope he will be fit to return to face Tottenham on February 11 even if Senegal go all the way to the final on February 5 . Liverpool 's title challenge was given a boost by beating Everton as they closed the gap on Chelsea back to six points and moved up to second . It was not exactly the all-conquering display that has been seen so many times this season from Klopp 's men but a more gritty victory that Antonio Conte has made his trademark at Stamford Bridge this term . " I think wins like this shows we will be there at the end of the season , " Mane said . He will be crucial if Liverpool are to finally win the title for the first time since 1990 . Fans and players alike will just hope they are still in the race by the time he returns to Anfield . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

Pantomime . Is ... back ? Or has it never really been away ? It 's a beloved British theatrical institution -- though not by everyone , as witness my colleague Natasha Tripney 's recent confession that , try as she might , she just does n't see their appeal , or Ann Treneman 's recent admission in the Times that she used to employ " advance avoidance techniques " to get out of going to them . And that 's okay . I do n't get restoration comedies and will run a mile from a periwig . But maybe I 've mostly seen bad ones -- when the National Theatre did George Farquhar 's The Beaux ' Stratagem in 2015 , I loved it . I 've had my fill of bad pantos , too -- I once endured a version of Peter Pan ( which has been shoehorned into the repertoire even though it 's not strictly speaking a panto ) at Richmond Theatre that totally put me off going near another panto that year . Too much pantomime is sloppy or ill-prepared , as startlingly demonstrated this year by Stacey Solomon , who got off a plane @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to I 'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here ! and was on stage at Milton Keynes the next afternoon , script in hand , for her starring role in a panto there . She tweeted : Landed last night , school run , now off to @MKTheatre for #DickWhittington first show at 1pm ... I 've never been so nervous and jet lagged Her agent was quoted in the Daily Telegraph applauding her for her " achievement " : " She arrived at the theatre this morning jet-lagged and shattered , and got straight on with it . After 2 hours prep with the director and cast she went on and performed in front of a packed theatre . I could not be prouder of this woman right now . She 's an absolute fighter . " But who exactly allowed her to schedule her time so badly -- to land back in Britain after a long flight from Australia , and then allow her to join a show after minimal rehearsal and without even knowing her lines ( that she could and should @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ End Producer tweeted : On the other hand , when you see a panto firing on all cylinders , there 's nothing quite like it -- for intergenerational appeal , bonding an audience and celebrating the unique liveness and interaction of theatre . This year , a no-expenses-spared production of Cinderella has brought panto back to the London Palladium . Once , it was an annual fixture there ; after nearly 30 years , it 's back -- and at the top of its game . Fielding three brilliant old-school variety turns -- Paul O'Grady , Julian Clary and Paul Zerdin -- it demonstrates how a new era has emerged . O'Grady and Clary were forged in the crucible of London 's once thriving drag act pub culture , and honour an ancient tradition of performers who tease , flirt , insult and outrage by turn . Watching Clary , with his expertly droll one-liners , dripping with sexual innuendo , I can honestly say I 've never laughed so long or so hard watching a panto before . Yes , it was frequently outrageous . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the kids -- afterwards , I spoke to a mother who was unconcerned about how dirty the jokes had got . Clary himself also flew over our heads on a motorbike that spun him entirely upside down as he took flight . You do n't , as he observed , get that at Aladdin . Zerdin , meanwhile , is a true wonder with the kids ; a popular entertainer who plays directly at their level , with complete sincerity and charm . Among their amazing company , this panto even uses performers who 'd be headliners elsewhere as second bananas . Self-confessed housewives ' crumpet Nigel Havers blissfully sends himself up as he seeks the limelight but is constantly rebuffed . There 's also a knowingness to more youthful musical theatre crumpet Lee Mead , who 's even pressed into a reprise of the song from Andrew Lloyd Webber 's Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat that made him a star . And Natasha Barnes , the understudy who went on for Sheridan Smith during her extended absence from Funny Girl and made a big impression , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if the only wish I secretly wanted the charmless Amanda Holden 's Fairy Godmother to grant was to wish herself away , I still had a blast . In an interview with producer/director Michael Harrison , he told me : " Nick Thomas and I think that if this only happens once , we want to make sure we can be as proud of it as possible . So we 've not really set a budget , we want it to be the best we can make it . We 've got ? 1 million worth of sets and costumes , and are working with the Twins FX to create three big flying effects . " I 've now heard that the Palladium has already been booked for the next two Christmases to host pantos again . But Harrison has set himself a tall order to better this show next time . The Stage reviews more pantos nationwide that any other professional outlet in the country , and there 's nowhere better to find out what 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ regular venues to look out for . London While commercial venues such as Richmond , Wimbledon and Bromley fly the flag for ATG 's First Family Entertainment partners , there are also brilliantly produced local pantos at Hackney Empire , Stratford East Theatre Royal and the Lyric Hammersmith that provide pantomimes less driven by celebrity than celebration . Beyond London Qdos Entertainment is the biggest commercial provider of pantomime around the country , and its flagship entry , apart from the London Palladium , is always at Birmingham Hippodrome . Many regional theatres also produce their own entries -- and at some , particular personalities have become fixtures , such as Berwick Kaler at York Theatre Royal or Kenneth Alan Taylor at Nottingham Playhouse . |

" General and ... retention " of emails and electronic communications by governments is illegal , the EU 's highest court has ruled , in a judgment that could trigger challenges against the UK 's new Investigatory Powers Act -- the so-called snooper 's charter . Only targeted interception of traffic and location data in order to combat serious crime -- including terrorism -- is justified , according to a long-awaited decision by the European court of justice ( ECJ ) in Luxembourg . The finding came in response to a legal challenge initially brought by the Brexit secretary , David Davis , when he was a backbench MP , and Tom Watson , Labour 's deputy leader , over the legality of GCHQ 's bulk interception of call records and online messages . The aim of going to Luxembourg was to clarify EU law on surveillance . The two MPs had argued successfully in the domestic courts that the Data Retention and Investigatory Powers Act ( Dripa ) 2014 was illegal . Dripa has since been replaced by the Investigatory Powers Act , which comes into force at the end of this month . At issue was whether @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be respected by member states in domestic legislation . The result , though immediately significant , could prove academic once the UK has withdrawn from the EU and the ECJ no longer has jurisdiction over the UK . In a summary of the ruling , the court said electronic communications allow " very precise conclusions to be drawn concerning the private lives of persons whose data has been retained " . It added : " The interference by national legislation that provides for the retention of traffic data and location data with that right must therefore be considered to be particularly serious . " The fact that the data is retained without the users of electronic communications services being informed of the fact is likely to cause the persons concerned to feel that their private lives are the subject of constant surveillance . Consequently , only the objective of fighting serious crime is capable of justifying such interference . " Legislation prescribing a general and indiscriminate retention of data ... exceeds the limits of what is strictly necessary and can not be considered to be justified @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ court or independent body to access retained data is required for each official request , the ECJ said . Before becoming Brexit minister , Davis travelled to Luxembourg to hear the case . He argued that the British government was " treating the entire nation as suspects " by ignoring safeguards on retaining and accessing personal communications data . Davis , one of the most vociferous critics of the state 's powers to collect data on its citizens , withdrew from the case following his ministerial appointment . The Dripa case was heard by 15 ECJ judges . It coincided with successive atrocities in Paris , Brussels and Nice that reinforced political demands for expansion of powers to intercept emails and phone calls to help catch Islamic State militants operating on the continent . Lawyers for the UK government maintained that intercepted communications have been at the heart of every terrorist case investigated by police and the security services in recent years . Responding to the ruling , Watson said : " At a time when we face a real and ever-present terrorist threat , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of us would normally hand over . That 's why it 's absolutely vital that proper safeguards are put in place to ensure this power is not abused , as it has been in the recent past . " Most of us can accept that our privacy may occasionally be compromised in the interests of keeping us safe , but no one would consent to giving the police or the government the power to arbitrarily seize our phone records or emails to use as they see fit . It 's for judges , not ministers , to oversee these powers . " Martha Spurrier , director of the human rights group Liberty , said : " Today 's judgment upholds the rights of ordinary British people not to have their personal lives spied on without good reason or an independent warrant . The government must now make urgent changes to the Investigatory Powers Act IPA to comply with this . " This is the first serious post-referendum test for our government 's commitment to protecting human rights and the rule of law . The UK may have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ vote to abandon our rights and freedoms . " Liberty is preparing to challenge the IPA in court . Jim Killock , executive director of the Open Rights Group , said : " Blanket surveillance of our communications is intrusive and unacceptable in a democracy . " The government must act quickly to rewrite the IPA or be prepared to go to court again . " A Home Office spokesperson said : " We are disappointed with the judgment from the European court of justice and will be considering its potential implications . " The government will be putting forward robust arguments to the court of appeal about the strength of our existing regime for communications data retention and access . " The shadow home secretary , Diane Abbott , said : " Many of us warned that these powers were far too widely drawn . Effectively , they allow for fishing expeditions where data is collected on a vast number of individuals . They also allow for data gathering against anyone suspected of the most minor crimes , not just terrorism and organised crime @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not informed . " The Liberal Democrat home affairs spokesman Brian Paddick said : " Collecting and storing everyone 's internet web browsing histories and phone records so government agencies can look at them is an Orwellian nightmare that intrudes into our privacy and erodes our civil liberties . " Daniel Carey , the solicitor from Deighton Pierce Glynn who represented the Open Rights Group and Privacy International , said : " The court is very clear that indiscriminately retaining everyone 's metadata is unlawful , which is a point my clients placed particular emphasis on . This prohibition arises out of longstanding EU legislation , which the UK played an important role in creating . " Camilla Graham Wood , of Privacy International , said : " Today 's judgment is a major blow against mass surveillance and an important day for privacy . It makes clear that blanket and indiscriminate retention of our digital histories can be a very intrusive form of surveillance that needs strict safeguards against abuse and mission creep . " The National Police Chiefs ' Council lead for communications data @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will work within any authorisation and oversight regime deemed appropriate by parliament and courts of law . But it is important for us to have a regime that is practical and dynamic enough to be able to respond to the volume and urgency of our cases . Any changes that impede our ability to access data quickly with appropriate safeguards will undermine our ability to keep people safe . " |

Mechanical pixels , formed of tiny , balloon-like structures , could form the basis of future flexible displays in a further development in research into graphene for display applications . This latest development comes from researchers at TU Delft university in the Netherlands and Graphenea , a graphene producer based in Spain . The pixels , measuring about 13 micrometers wide , do not emit light but are visible in sunlight . They are cut into silicon and covered by a double layer of graphene that is two atoms thick . Santiago Cartamil-Bueno , a PhD student at TU Delft , carried out the experimental work initially found the change in colour as an accident while carrying out research into sensors . " Seeing the colours under a microscope , I realised that the devices were not homogeneous , which is bad if you are trying to create a sensor , " he noted . After observing membrane-covered cavities for a longer period of time , researchers saw that their colours were not constant . Dr Samer Houri , a researcher at TU Delft , led the work . " We @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , " he said . Researchers concluded that the devices were behaving like tiny balloons . In some of them , pressure differences between the cavity and the outside atmosphere caused the graphene membrane to be pressed downwards , towards the bottom of the cavity . By having more pressure inside than outside , the membrane was pushed upwards . They determined that the colour change effect came from the interference between light waves reflected from the bottom of the cavity and the membrane on top and adding up or cancelling out different parts of the spectrum of white light . The application of pressure therefore changed the colour of the pixel . Researchers hope the development could find uses in displays with low power consumption requirements such as smart watches and ebooks and intend to have a screen prototype in places for the Mobile World Conference 2017 in Barcelona .

Reporter : Grace Witherden 09:00AM , Thursday 22 December 2016 comments 0 ' Thank you from the bottom of our hearts ' is the message from the family of little George Ferriman to the community which rallied behind him during his battle with cancer . The three-year-old , who lives near Furze Platt , was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia ( AML ) in February . Since then , thousands have followed his fight on social media through the #FightForGeorge campaign , raising tens of thousands of pounds in his name for cancer charities .

The Ferriman family , which includes dad Richard , mum Louise , brothers Charlie , 12 , Henry , two and sister Isabelle , nine is now looking forward to spending Christmas together . Louise said : " I never let myself think he would n't be spending Christmas here , but I did n't think @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as he is today . " From the whole family we would like to thank the local community from the bottom of our hearts for caring and supporting #FightForGeorge . " We wanted to share the journey because we wanted something positive to come out of something so horrendous . " We said we wanted to leave George with a legacy . " The campaign touched the hearts of the community and inspired hundreds of people to organise events including cake sales , picnics , marathons , tea parties and concerts to raise money for the cause . More than ? 70,000 has been collected , which has been split between charities close to the family including Rosie 's Rainbow Fund , CLIC Sergeant , Ronald McDonald House Charities , Birmingham Hospital Research Programme , Beads of Courage and DKMS .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It uses 'come out of' which is intransitive and does not involve an NP object or a VP[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Reporter : Grace Witherden 09:00AM , Thursday 22 December 2016 comments 0 ' Thank you from the bottom of our hearts ' is the message from the family of little George Ferriman to the community which rallied behind him during his battle with cancer . The three-year-old , who lives near Furze Platt , was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia ( AML ) in February . Since then , thousands have followed his fight on social media through the #FightForGeorge campaign , raising tens of thousands of pounds in his name for cancer charities . George spent a month bed-bound and receiving treatment at Birmingham Children 's Hospital and had four rounds of chemotherapy before he went into remission in July . The Ferriman family , which includes dad Richard , mum Louise , brothers Charlie , 12 , Henry , two and sister Isabelle , nine is now looking forward to spending Christmas together . Louise said : " I never let myself think he would n't be spending Christmas here , but I did n't think @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as he is today . " From the whole family we would like to thank the local community from the bottom of our hearts for caring and supporting #FightForGeorge . " We wanted to share the journey because we wanted something positive to come out of something so horrendous . " We said we wanted to leave George with a legacy . " The campaign touched the hearts of the community and inspired hundreds of people to organise events including cake sales , picnics , marathons , tea parties and concerts to raise money for the cause . More than ? 70,000 has been collected , which has been split between charities close to the family including Rosie 's Rainbow Fund , CLIC Sergeant , Ronald McDonald House Charities , Birmingham Hospital Research Programme , Beads of Courage and DKMS .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject (Francis) + V1 (made) + NP object (Cardinal Burke) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (running the Church's supreme court and blocking the Pope's reforms to the marriage annulment process). It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, where Francis prevents Cardinal Burke from running the Church's supreme court and blocking the Pope's reforms. The verb 'made' can be seen as exerting force or pressure, fitting one of the semantic categories of verbs that appear in the V1 slot. The NP object (Cardinal Burke) is a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

But Cardinal Raymond Leo Burke , who has threatened to formally correct the Pope unless his " dubia " receive a response , is now facing some scrutiny of his own after the sacking of a senior Knight of Malta , Albrecht von Boeselager , in a row about the distribution of condoms . Now that Pope Francis has set up an inquiry into the matter Cardinal Burke has the following questions to answer : on what grounds did he claim the Holy See 's authority in dismissing Boeselager ? Did he consult anyone inside the Vatican before Boeselager was dismissed ? Did he consult Pope Francis ? And if not , why not ? Cardinal Burke is patron of the illustrious 11th century Order of Malta and the link man between the knights and the Holy See ; it 's his job to ensure the wishes of the Pope and the Vatican are communicated correctly to the order . What we know is that Cardinal Burke was present when on 6 December Boeselager was sacked by the order 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the the German his dismissal was in " accordance with the wishes of the Holy See " as the distribution of condoms is contrary to Church teaching . Boeselager , however , has hit back to say the Holy See wrote to the knights saying they did not call for him to be dismissed , while Festing told me that the row about condoms was resolved three years ago . Officials in the order also say that following an internal investigation Boeselager admitted he knew about the condoms but they were distributed by other aid programmes , not his . The Vatican was informed , the participation of Malteser International - the order 's international relief arm - in the programme ended and an ethics committee was launched to ensure it would n't happen again . The row was re-ignited when the conservative pressure group , the Lepanto Institute , submitted a report to Cardinal Burke at the end of November alleging that that as early as 2005 Malteser had distributed condoms and oral contraceptives , and was continuing to promote the use of condoms . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the German knight 's sacking ? Francis made Cardinal Burke patron of the order in 2014 as a way of getting him out of running the Church 's supreme court and blocking the Pope 's reforms to the marriage annulment process . But with the " dubia " saga and now this latest dispute the cardinal continues to cause headaches for the Pope . And if Burke is found to have overstepped his role and remit as patron of the order of Malta , then Francis may have no choice but to move him once again . |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('the personal savings allowance was launched, taking most savers out of paying any tax on their savings interest altogether'). It has a prevention interpretation, where the action (launching the personal savings allowance) prevents most savers from paying tax on their savings interest. The verb 'taking' fits into one of the categories of verbs that can appear in the V1 slot (by means of exerting force or pressure, metaphorically understood).

The last year has been described as a " cruel " one for savers - but 2017 could bring some relief . The cut in the Bank of England base rate to 0.25% in August sent savings rates , which were already paying paltry amounts , tumbling further , with some providers chopping the rates on their deals by bigger amounts than the 0.25 point cut in the bank rate . In June , before the base rate was cut , financial information website Moneyfacts said the average easy access Isa rate had fallen below 1% for the first time . By November , there were around three savings rate cuts taking place across the market for every increase . Rachel Springall , a finance expert at Moneyfacts , said a year ago , around two-thirds ( 67% ) of accounts in the savings market paid 1% or more - but now only around a third ( 34% ) do so - " showing how cruel the past year alone has been on savers " .

Pensioners in particular have had another tough year , with many relying on the returns they get from savings to boost their income .

The annuities market has also had another difficult year . In September , Moneyfacts said annuities were suffering their worst year on record , with low gilt yields following the Brexit vote and a significant weakening of competition in the annuity market sending annuity rates plunging .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'made a virtue out of taking on vested interests' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'out of' in a different sense, indicating the source or basis of making a virtue, which is not consistent with the transitive out of -ing construction.

Its leader Leanne ... had gained a UK-wide profile after appearing in the televised leaders ' debates during the 2015 General Election . It had put together a set of eye-catching policies aimed at achieving prosperity for Wales . And it had selected a number of talented candidates -- most notably the former MP Adam Price -- who were keen to bring fresh energy to Welsh politics . In the months leading up to the election , many of the party 's activists hyped themselves up into believing they would emerge from it victorious , with Leanne installed as the new First Minister . They saw how successfully Nicola Sturgeon was performing as the SNP 's First Minister in Scotland , recalled the two leaders hugging after the general election debate , and convinced themselves that Leanne could emulate Nicola . Claire Howell , the motivational guru used by both the SNP and Plaid who had personally coached Leanne , insisted she would be First Minister . Even Adam surprised seasoned political commentators by insisting in the most emphatic terms that Leanne " really will be First Minister , you know " . It was always difficult to see @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ expressly ruled out the possibility of a coalition with the Conservatives . The maths did n't add up . But the number of Plaid people carried away by the prospect of leading the Welsh Government was puzzling , not least because the big winners in the election were expected to be Ukip -- the least credible bedfellows for Plaid in any potential coalition . As the votes were counted , any chance of a Plaid-led administration taking charge of Wales seemed even less likely . Against the most pessimistic expectations from within its own ranks , Labour had managed to hang on to 29 of the 30 seats it previously held , fending off challenges from the Conservatives in all the Labour/Tory marginals . Their one loss , though , was a significant one . Leighton Andrews , a Minister who made a virtue out of taking on vested interests , was beaten by Leanne in her home seat of Rhondda . No-one had seriously talked up the prospect of her winning in advance , least of all Plaid -- @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sense of anticipated triumphalism that pervaded the party conference in Llanelli in early March . Leanne Wood campaigning in Treorchy , Rhondda ( Photo : Rob Browne ) Afterwards , however , one heard of a sense of momentum gathering in the final days of the campaign , with voters emerging from their houses when word reached them that the Plaid leader was canvassing in their street . But her victory was a personal one rather than a win for her party . Local people who saw her in the leaders ' debates were proud that someone they regarded as " one of us " had given a good account of herself on the UK-wide stage in a medium they were familiar and comfortable with -- the TV set in the corner of the room . Her local credentials were also impeccable in comparison with Leighton , who despite having a house in the constituency was portrayed by Plaid as an outsider from Cardiff who represented a metropolitan elite which was alien to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Leanne 's victory , many who had supported pro-EU Leanne voted Leave weeks later in the Brexit referendum . The overall election result -- with Labour on 29 , Plaid on 12 , the Conservatives 11 , Ukip 7 and the Liberal Democrats just 1 -- did n't appear to play into Plaid 's narrative . Six of the seven newly elected Ukip AMs are sworn in But Leanne 's victory in Rhondda brought into play another possibility thrown up by the Assembly 's standing orders . Unlike in Westminster , where constitutional convention requires the Queen to ask the leader of the largest party to form a government , the First Minister is elected by a vote of all the AMs . When no party has secured an overall majority -- a situation which has applied in all five Assembly elections so far -- there is at least a mathematical opportunity to elect someone other than the leader of the largest party . With Leanne basking in her shock win , and enjoying a high recognition factor because of the UK-wide profile she had acquired @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pursued . Adam explained the thinking behind pitching Leanne against Carwyn Jones for the First Minister 's job : " Obviously mathematics is absolutely central to the story . Labour did not have a majority . While it 's conventional for the largest party to make the first attempt to form a government , that does not give it carte blanche to ignore other parties completely . First Minister Carwyn Jones with Leanne Wood , who had launched her own bid to lead the Welsh Government " And that 's what Labour appeared to do at first . Later it became clear that they had made overtures to Lib Dem Kirsty Williams . But so far as Plaid Cymru was concerned , there was at that early post-election stage never any discussion about the kind of relationship Labour wanted with us . Once again we appeared to have a Labour Party stuck in the mindset of believing it had a divine right to govern . " At that stage there was no question of our being asked @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ any appetite within Plaid to do . Given the arithmetic , and given the assumption Labour was making , they had to be challenged . " Adam insists that the idea of putting Leanne up against Carwyn for First Minister was not a mere gimmick or even a political symbol : " If we were going to do it at all , we had to be prepared to win and to form a government under Leanne if she was elected , " he said . " It had to be a real attempt . " Obviously any successful bid would entail securing the support of the two parties Leanne could never entertain working with as colleagues in government : the Conservatives and Ukip . Yet Adam saw no inconsistency about making approaches to them : " There was never any possibility of inviting the Conservatives or Ukip to join us in government . Instead , it was about showing that Welsh politics need not be about Labour being in power all the time , and that there could be a workable alternative . " Welsh Conservative @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Leanne Wood in the First Minister ballot of AMs The Conservatives were , said Adam , " not exactly enamoured " by the prospect of electing Leanne as First Minister with no offer of a place in government . But they agreed to go along with the plan . Adam himself went to see Ukip 's newly elected group leader Neil Hamilton , whom he had got to know during the election campaign when both of them stood for election in Carmarthen East & Dinefwr . Adam was elected and Hamilton won a regional seat in Mid & West Wales . " He embraced the idea enthusiastically and did n't need any persuasion , " said Adam . " He quickly offered the support of the rest of the Ukip group too . " Crucial to the plan 's success , then , was the vote of Kirsty , the sole Liberal Democrat AM left standing at the election . Several months before , Adam had been involved in talks with the Liberal Democrats and the Green @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ list seats . But the initiative failed when it proved impossible to reach agreement over the carve-up of seats . Lib Dem Kirsty Williams was given the post of Welsh Government education minister As the one AM from another party who potentially stood to gain the most from linking up with Plaid , there was hope that Kirsty would go along with the challenge and vote for Leanne . Leanne herself met Kirsty , ready to offer her a Cabinet post in a minority administration led by Plaid . But it seems that before such an offer could be made , Kirsty ruled it out , saying the idea of running a government with such a small number of AMs would be unworkable , and that she 'd be voting for Carwyn . So when the drama unfolded in the Senedd , with each AM having to declare who they were voting for as First Minister , both Labour and Plaid knew the result would be a tie . The rest of us mere mortals had to watch with excitement and incredulity as Andrew RT Davies @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ukip AMs voted for Leanne . There was even a frisson to be had listening to these right-wingers uttering the name of the most left-wing leader of a mainstream party in Britain . Failing to win the vote the first time meant the game was up for Plaid in terms of securing the First Ministership . Carwyn was elected on a second vote days later . Carwyn Jones and Leanne Wood at Cardiff City Stadium , where they announced the deal between their parties which allowed Mr Jones to continue as First Minister But the initial tie gave Plaid leverage in subsequent negotiations with Labour , who agreed to set up a number of policy liaison committees with Plaid -- giving them an influence in government while maintaining the freedom to oppose . Kirsty opted to join the Cabinet , and now holds the crucial Education portfolio . Does Adam regret orchestrating what would have been an audacious coup ? Not a bit of it : " It 's been criticised on the basis that Plaid Cymru @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " he said . " But in Denmark the Prime Minister who took office at the last election held an even smaller proportion of seats than Plaid won . " Kirsty would have been in the Cabinet and we would have governed as a minority administration , negotiating policy initiatives and legislation on an issue-by-issue basis . I think we 'd still be in office now if it had happened , although I ca n't say that during the term something would n't have cropped up that would have seen us facing a vote of no confidence . " It would have done Welsh politics a power of good to have a different administration . For the first time it would have guaranteed our place on the front of the London newspapers . I think it would have stirred interest in Wales , with the knowledge that something new was happening . I think people would have responded . Plaid 's Adam Price has given the inside story of the Senedd drama " Who knows ? It may even have had an influence on the referendum @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of power that change was needed . " I 'm deeply sorry that we were n't successful . It 's very likely that we 'll have to wait another four years before we can give it another try . " A Labour source close to the negotiations said : " We felt very strongly at the time that Wales needed a stable government in quick order . The steel crisis , the Ukip breakthrough and the immediacy of the European referendum were all important factors in that thinking . But we were n't blind to the numbers either , and that is why Carwyn sought talks with Leanne and Kirsty so soon after the vote . " We felt we did everything we could to show how serious we were about cross-party working . Everything that happened next played out pretty publicly , so there 's no need to go over old ground -- but suffice to say we knew exactly how the numbers would split when the AMs went into the chamber for the first vote , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Carwyn is n't a tribal politician , and in subsequent months the Government has demonstrated that willingness to work across party boundaries and create new structures to give others a say . That seems to be giving Wales the stable leadership it needs . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks a VP2[-ing] predicate and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a means of making money, which is not aligned with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Against Southampton , ... Hotspur earned their spurs . Against the Saints they marched on . A goal behind and playing catch-up to the other five Champions League contenders -- who had already played and won their first festive fixture -- they turned this challenging encounter around to emphatically state their own formidable credentials . It was , Dele Alli later said , after scoring twice on what was his 50th Premier League appearance , a " big statement " . Spurs are still in this race -- no question -- and , like those around them , are gathering momentum for what promises to be a monumental second half of the season among the big beasts of the ' top six ' who have pulled away from the rest of the Premier League and will now slug it out , hopefully , all the way until May . Spurs could even afford to commit one of the most extraordinary of penalty misses -- as Harry Kane skied the ball high , high and even higher over the cross-bar . It was a rugby conversion in elevation , aided by some dodgy turf . That incident followed on from a red @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Dean for impeding Alli -- with Southampton seething at the decision . Redmond had tugged Alli back , initially outside the penalty area , before slipping inside the box . The argument will continue as to whether the dismissal was deserved but the home side played out the final 33 minutes with 10 men . By then Kane had already scored to put Spurs ahead , ending a mini-drought of 344 minutes without a goal , but had things turned out differently that spot-kick could have been the story . Instead it is about Kane and Alli and Spurs young tyros re-asserting themselves . It was in this fixture last season , also in December , that they made their title charge and although a 10-point gap to leaders Chelsea is big , they play them next week at home . Once again Danny Rose was outstanding and Christian Eriksen hugely influential and it is beginning to click into gear for Mauricio Pochettino 's team . His name rang around St Mary 's at the final whistle , as it so often did when he was Southampton @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he saluted the visiting supporters who saluted him . Son Heung-Min celebrates his goal As impressive and important as this victory was for Spurs , it hurt Southampton . A defence that has been so formidable was breached four times and it could have been six with Spurs also striking the cross-bar as well as missing the penalty and other chances . Yes , they will point to Redmond 's red card but it was not the game-changer . Spurs , finally feeling more like the Spurs of last season , were already dominant and able to score more whatever the head-count . The head-count was also about headers , with the opening three goals scored that way . And , to think , everyone predicted this would be a tight game with defences dominating . Instead the ball was in the net on 69 seconds with Southampton claiming the lead and then almost doubling that with a fierce shot from Redmond that flew narrowly wide . Virgil van Dijk , the league 's form defender , claimed the goal as he met one of those @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a helpless Hugo Lloris . That Van Dijk was allowed to do so unchallenged was a shock -- just as was the nature of Spurs ' equaliser . Until then they had been flat , unthreatening and then , out of nothing , they struck . It came as Mousa Demb ? l ? played a clever pass out wide to Moussa Sissoko whose cross clipped off Redmond but did not prevent Alli , stealing in front of Van Dijk , from leaping high to superbly direct a header across Fraser Forster , striking a post on its way into the net . It changed the contest . Spurs were suddenly in the ascendancy , although Southampton may ask whether Jan Vertonghen should have been punished for pushing his hand into Jay Rodriguez 's face -- if it was deliberate . Southampton appeared curiously inhibited , lacking in tempo and ambition , and inevitably they fell behind . Again it was a poor concession with Eriksen 's corner met by Kane -- inexplicably being marked by Oriol Romeu -- to easily guide a header between Forster and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ striker then missed his penalty . Still Spurs held their grip , making their man advantage count with a series of chances and Eriksen crashing a shot against the bar before finally it was game-over . Southampton had made a triple substitution but it was the a change by Pochettino that counted as substitute Son Heung-Min ran on to Eriksen 's cross-field pass , which took a deflection , and fired the ball low and left-footed across Forster to find the corner of the goal . By now Southampton were deflated and they backed off to allow Rose to move forward and thread a pass through to Alli . In the same area that Son had occupied , the 20-year-old was allowed to pick his spot and curl a right-footed shot that also beat the forlorn goalkeeper . The result meant that Spurs had earned 71 points from 37 games in 2016 -- their highest ever tally in a calendar year in the Premier League era . The question now is : have they given themselves a launchpad to go even higher ? Spurs stay fifth @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ off . Jeremy Wilsonwas at St Mary 's , and has filed his analysis on how the match was won , and whether Tottenham are still in the title race . This was a vital result which ensures that what was a 13-point deficit can definitely be reduced to seven -- and just maybe even four or five -- should they beat Watford and Chelsea over the next seven days . It is a tall ask for anyone to stop Chelsea just now but , as they did against Manchester City earlier in the season , Spurs know that their high pressing style can suffocate even the very best opponents . They can also now leapfrog Arsenal on Saturday . An easy win in the end for Tottenham , who put four past a Southampton team that had gone more than five hours without conceding a league goal at home . There was some controversy over the Redmond red card because the rule changes for this season mean that a last-man foul is no longer an automatic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Redmond 's offence was essentially a rugby tackle and with no attempt made to play the ball , Dean was within his rights to show the red card . In any case Spurs were well on top before then and had been firmly in control ever since Alli 's 19th-minute equaliser . The win moves Tottenham to within 10 points of leaders Chelsea , and just a point off fourth-placed Arsenal . Game , set and match Tottenham . The sucker punch that has been coming for the last half-hour finally arrives . Eriksen 's pinged through ball takes a nick on its way through , and Son runs clear unopposed and finishes unerringly with his left foot across Forster . Great finish , goodnight Southampton . " Oh you idiot , " is my instinctive and measured response to Hojberg , as he collects Lloris ' dreadful clearance but instead of shooting into an empty goal from about 35 yards plays a pea-roller of a pass straight @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ That surely was just terrible execution and not what he was actually trying to do ? ? ? The replays suggests it was the former . Just on that penalty miss , it 's quite interesting to recall that Van Dijk admitted earlier in the season that he tried to tamper with the spot against Arsenal . After that match , the defender said : " You try to do anything to prevent the goal and that 's what I did but it did n't work . " I wonder if he employed similarly dastardly tactics tonight . Another big opportunity for Tottenham , and again it 's wasted . Eriksen beautifully cushions a volley pass into Rose 's path , but the left-back slices his shot wide of the near post . Spurs then make a change , with the impressive Sissoko going off for Son Heung-Min. Huge chance for Spurs , but Eriksen crashes an effort from 12 yards out onto the crossbar ! Forster was beaten all ends up but the woodwork @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Davis , Rodriguez and Boufal off for Hojberg , Long and Tadic. Saints really struggling to create chances , and their task has only become harder since that Redmond sending off . Spurs controlling things at the moment , and Wanyama has stung Forster 's fingertips with a drilled left-footed shot from the edge of the box . Chance for Spurs , but Sissoko elects to cushion a header from Alli 's pass rather than going for goal from about six yards out , and Southampton get away with it . Sissoko has been very good though on the whole , not least playing a perfectly weighted through ball for Alli in the incident that led to Redmond 's red card . Well the miss keeps Southampton in it , but the man advantage is huge for Spurs . Rose though is struggling to keep his cool , and he 's booked for shoving Cedric down the Southampton right . The resulting free-kick finds Fonte and causes a bit of panic , but Spurs manage @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 57 min - Penalty Spurs and red card Redmond ! Alli is through on goal , and gets a shot away , but it 's wide and he was being pulled down by Redmond as he did it . Dean points to the spot and Redmond is sent off for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity . Classic Mike Dean . The run to the spot before the point , the timing of the red , the art , the finesse , the showmanship. A bit of a half of two halves , with Saints dominant until Dele Alli 's 19th minute equaliser , and Tottenham well on top thereafter . Southampton could barely get out of their own half as we approached half-time , and Claude Puel will be thinking about making a change up front because Jay Rodriguez looked increasingly isolated . Shane Long or Dusan Tadic look the most obvious options . Mauricio Pochettino meanwhile will be asking for more of the same from his team . Fraser Forster is really not helping the increasingly anxious mood at St Mary 's with a couple of dreadful kicks . Fortunately for the hosts , the mistakes have not been costly , but you get the feeling they 're hanging on for half-time a little bit . Southampton build their first bit of pressure since conceding that goal , as Redmond feeds a scampering Cedric as he breaks into the box . Vertinghen though makes a clever block to stop the right-back 's cross . Eriksen is finding pockets of space between the lines , and he is able to fire off a shot from about 20 yards out that is deflected just wide . Moments later Walker 's cross is deflected into the Dane 's path , but he lifts his shot @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 15 - 30 min ) You can see why Southampton are wary of pushing too many men forward because Spurs look a real threat on the break . Eriksen and Sissoko combine to set Kane away , but Fonte comes across to make the tackle . A goal out of absolutely nothing . Sissoko 's cross is deflected up into the air , and while the Saints defenders stand around like statues , Alli pounces and plants a header past Forster in off the bar . Having been inches from going 2-0 down , Spurs are now back level . Bertrand is causing Spurs real problems , and he bursts forward from left-back to deliver a low cross that his opposite number Rose does well to stop reaching Redmond . That would have been a tap-in and 2-0 otherwise . The free-kick for the goal incidentally was given away @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it that little bit sweeter for the home fans . Rodriguez almost gives the St Mary 's faithful even more to shout about , but he pulls his shot well wide from about the edge of the box . What a start for Southampton . Ward-Prowse curls in a beautiful free-kick from out wide about 25 yards out , and Van Dijk simply guides a header into the bottom corner from six yards .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'out of' as a complex preposition followed by a noun phrase 'keeping with the festive season', which does not introduce a VP[-ing]. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not yield a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The last full ... of Jonathan Creek , back in 2014 , divided critics and audience ; at the time our own reviewer complained that the central mysteries lacked the intricacy and peril of previous instalments , and there was a feeling that the spark had gone out of the show ever since Creek put away his duffel coat and moved out of the windmill . The signs are there from the outset that this is going to be a more exciting affair : a big spooky house , a mystery involving several deaths and a Satanic ritual , and of course a delicious sizzle reel for the Hammer-esque films of Ken Bones ' schlocky director Nathan Clore . It 's a jarring but thrilling teaser that grabs the attention and sets the tone for the next ninety minutes ; the only shame is that the script does n't lean more heavily into the Hammer parody tone . All of the elements are in place for a slice of classic Creek , though it takes the titular detective nearly half of the special 's running time to get properly involved . To help fill out the time we are introduced to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ biggest fan . It 's an obvious comic turn by the ubiquitous Davis , but if you 're a fan of his work you 'll find a perfectly charming performance here - which is just as well , as the reverend is given the bulk of the heavy lifting for the first forty minutes , and there are times when you wonder whether you 're watching The Warwick Davis Mystery Hour ( programme commissioners , you know where to find me ) . The reason for Creek 's early absence from the case is the interference of his wife Polly , played once again by Sarah Alexander . For such a talented comic actress , it was disappointing in the 2014 series that Polly 's role was usually that of wet blanket , rolling her eyes and haranguing Creek for getting involved in a case . Polly has mercifully mellowed slightly , and over the course of Daemons ' Roost , we see her become more intrigued by and involved with the case ; eventually they settle into a relationship more akin to the dynamic that worked so well @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . An episode of Jonathan Creek lives or dies on the strength of its mysteries , and it feels like writer David Renwick has been saving them up : the impossible powers of a 19th-century Satanist , the tragic and unexplained deaths of a mother and two of her children , the last message of an muted film director ( some fantastic eye work from Ken Bones , there ) ... Even the mystery of the striped unicorn , which at first just seems thrown in as a bonus mystery for the first half of the episode , proves to be not only tragically relevant to the story but a clever subversion of the format . And for the most part , the payoff is worth the wait . A few of the smaller mysteries are a bit disappointing - the ' phoney ' reveal feels like a particular stretch - but the secret of the sorcerer is brilliant in its obvious simplicity , as all the best mysteries are once they 're revealed . But by far Renwick 's cleverest stroke is the reveal that Ryman is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ extension the audience - happily assume that the pair are married , and so the ' twist ' comes as a real rug-pull moment that leaves everyone feeling a tad guilty . There 's one subplot that really does n't seem to work , though , and that 's the ' return ' of the murderer from Series 1 episode The House Of Monkeys ( the one where Jonathan and Maddy briefly ended up in bed together ) , who has been released from prison and is hell bent on revenge . There are a number of problems with this part of the special : firstly , the villain is presented as a mindless psychopath , with even less depth than your standard Power Rangers monster ; secondly , he 's such a disposable presence ( once he 's fulfilled his plot function of getting Jonathan and Polly to Daemons ' Roost ) that Jonathan callously and entirely nonchalantly lets him burn to death and nobody bats an eyelid ; and thirdly , the basic facts are wrong - a quick Google reveals that the killer in The House @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shown here . This may seem like a nitpick out of keeping with the festive season , but the whole subplot leaves a bad aftertaste at the end of a rather good episode of Jonathan Creek . It really feels like the ship has course corrected after the last series , and Daemons ' Roost reminds us how compelling the show can be . And with no closure in sight ( outside of a final glimpse of the windmill ) , perhaps there 's life in the old duffel coat yet . |

the juicy gossip of knowing what is coming up in EastEnders , Coronation Street , Emmerdale and Hollyoaks , nothing beats a shocking twist that takes us by complete surprise -- and 2016 has been a bumper year for them !
We have gasped at sudden deaths , listened open mouthed at surprising secrets and done double takes over everything from ghosts and returns to stunts and family bombshells . Which of the following big twists floored you the most ? These are the 18 shockers that most soap fans did n't see coming this year : Sarah George managed to keep her Hollyoaks exit under wraps so what a shock it was when a hostage storyline we all felt sure Celine would emerge from ended in her death when Cameron claimed another victim . Some of the best twists explode in the midst of an uneventful day . This night focusing on panto preparations , darts matches and girls ' nights out ended in a sudden and harrowing robbery that left Walford fans reeling . Normally reserved for Corrie 's comedy storylines , Patti Clare reminded a tearful nation what she is made of when she delivered a stunning performance in these scenes that the show had kept secret . As Mary revealed that she was the victim of rape as a teenager and gave up a son she has n't seen since , millions were left stunned and cried for the much loved character . Bobby being violent was no major surprise but the sheer brutality of his attack on his mum Jane left viewers shaken . Fans felt something sinister brewing but no-one was expecting the grim scenes which saw him beat his mum with a hockey stick . The blood spatter across @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ John Paul 's family link ( Hollyoaks ) Sally had become a staple of the village in her own right so when we found out her close link to John Paul and Myra , we were both stunned and thrilled by the storyline potential . There were gasps throughout the Hollyoaks fandom as it clicked for Myra that Sally used to be Iain , John Paul 's father . In a week of drama where viewers thought that they knew all of the big twists in advance , a dramatic stunt played out which saw Carla cause a crash which left Cathy injured and the Platt house destroyed . While fans were expecting Callum to be discovered , no-one could tear their eyes from the screen as the shocking crash played out . It 's a bit of a soap staple to have someone suddenly hit by a car that comes from nowhere but it never fails to be a shock . Emmerdale viewers were unaware that the show were killing off Tess @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , no-one could quite believe how different a direction Paddy 's story had taken . For maximum impact , a heartbreaking turn of events for Lee and Whitney was held back and the real tragedy of a miscarriage was felt as it came without warning and left the couple shattered . Emotions ran high as fans wept for the couple who had started the episode in an upbeat manner . Peter 's back ! David 's on the rampage ! A stunt is about to explode ! Corrie 's big week had enough action in the previews to keep us gripped but the biggest impact came when Ken suddenly collapsed with a stroke during a row with Peter . It hit him with little warning and Bill Roache played the fear in Ken 's eyes with great realism as fans struggled to comprehend what was happening to soap 's longest serving character . Peggy 's last week was incredibly special television and emotive viewing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cherry on the top of a poignant ending . It was great to see Pat again and fans were overjoyed by the lovely surprise . It almost took the sting out of losing Peggy but not really . Nico 's doom was all but a given -- you ca n't keep going around killing people without consequence ( you hear that , Cameron ! ? ) and when it appeared that the fire was under control , Hollyoaks fans breathed a sigh of relief . Then suddenly -- BOOM ! -- Joe was a goner . Hollyoaks really keep us on our toes ... Soap 's most spectacular scene of 2016 had plenty of sign posts and a pesky leak ruined the outcome of who the eventual death would be -- although there were plenty of red herrings that kept everyone guessing regardless . But the big shock for the viewer was both the scale of the disaster and the catalyst which was Emma at her crazy best . Fans started open @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this one . This deeply poignant episode aired the opposite outcome to what viewers were expecting and hoping for . Opting to reflect the reality of low conviction rates in rape cases , EastEnders left viewers angry but delivered an important and emotional episode around the topic which ended with the women affected by Dean pulling together . From the moment that Michael wed black widow Gail , we know that a fatal end was inevitable but what left fans shocked was the darkness of Michael 's departure from Weatherfield . As Phelan watched Michael lose his life , bereft of much emotion , he took another step into mega villainy . We had been expecting to see Steven back in Walford after the news broke ahead of time but when he turned up at the end of an episode and it became clear that he was now with Peter 's girlfriend Lauren , fans had a whole weekend to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was confirmed as the pair snogged and , against the odds , they still remain together . Coronation Street 's crash was shocking enough but when Anna was caught in the carnage and an explosion saw a trail of fire set her alight , the unexpected and harrowing turn of events really took fans by surprise . And Debbie Rush really gave it her all , given that she was set on fire for real ! EastEnders broke the mould of relatives never coming back for weddings by having an array of familiar faces back for Whitney and Lee 's big day -- including young Tiffany and Morgan . Fans were delighted to catch up with the pair -- and it also helped to put an end to those ' you wo n't believe what they look like now ' pieces . Metro Blogs is a place for opinions .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes an action ('fashion a goal out of nothing') but lacks the necessary components (V1 and NP object) and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Manchester City are enduring a difficult season ; we know this because they are in the last 16 of the Champions League and third in the league , seven points off the top . Which is to say that they are a decent and dangerous team , though the criticism they have received is not without foundation . In particular , City 's league defeats are telling , coming against Spurs , Chelsea and Leicester . All three teams play at a ferocious pace , harrying the opposition and countering quickly -- rather like Liverpool , their opponents on Saturday evening . City know that they will be denied time on the ball , and against the league 's leading scorers , by far , a backline that looked ill-equipped for the division in general , let alone Guardiola 's stylistic flourishes , is certain to be tested . Of course it is difficult to impose and adapt a method on the hoof in an intensely competitive competition , but at the same time , a creative but suspect defence is all very well when you have the midfielders to ensure that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do not . In replacing Joe Hart with Claudio Bravo and only bringing in John Stones , Guardiola might have been given himself more options against teams likely to sit back , but at Anfield they will not find one of those . And yet it is entirely possible that David Silva , Kevin De Bruyne and Sergio Ag ? ero will click and take them to the cleaners . We should be in for an absolute belter . DH The best football teams tend to have options and variety , and if there is a criticism of late-Wenger-era Arsenal -- if there is -- it is that they have lacked both . Through their title-winning years in wide areas they could variously perm from Ray Parlour , Marc Overmars , Freddie Ljungberg , Robert Pires on the wing , along with Sylvain Wiltord who could also play up front . This gave them balance , and it is only in recent months that they have rediscovered it : Alexis S ? nchez is a one-man forward line while Theo @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are all good and different -- likewise the returning Danny Welbeck . But amid these relative riches , Arsenal must not forget Olivier Giroud . Often the subject of ridicule for the crime of being merely excellent rather than brilliant , Giroud has more than enough to account for the majority of Premier League teams , even if he is not what the first-choice striker of champions looks like . In Arsenal 's last game he nabbed them a crucial late winner , and a game at home to a Crystal Palace side not exactly strong at the back is precisely the kind of fixture in which Ars ? ne Wenger should use him ; not off the bench , if things are not going well , but from the start . Though Giroud wants to stay at the Emirates , it is not easy to retain players who know they are not first choice , especially if there is no steady supply of medals to placate them , so Arsenal must ensure that he feels valued because should he end up leaving , the chances are he will be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Will Hughes take the blame for Stoke stagnation ? The king is dead , long live the king ? Alan Pardew was previously the man upon whom no blame could be placed , who shifted the responsibility for his side 's defeats towards his players and most definitely away from himself . Mark Hughes made a handy bid for the vacant title after Stoke 's defeat by Liverpool , though . " I do n't think too many teams come here and play two up top , " he said . " And they did n't deal with it very well . I am sure a lot of other teams will look at what we did today and try to replicate it . " It is worth remembering that , despite this obvious tactical masterclass paying off , Stoke did lose 4-1 . So why ? " We have n't defended correctly which is a shame . We came here with a good game plan and for the most part we caused them real problems in the first half and they did n't really deal with it well ... @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by four goals , which is a bit unfair on us . " In summary : the manager did his job , but was let down by the pesky players . Funny , that . It is also worth pointing out that Stoke are 13th , and their five victories this season have come against the current bottom three , plus Watford and Burnley : not exactly what you would describe as scalps . It might be harsh to suggest Stoke are going backwards , but before they travel to Chelsea on Saturday they are certainly not going forwards . One wonders whose fault that is . NM Read more " Yes , it was one of the first , " said Aitor Karanka when asked if he looked out for Middlesbrough 's first fixture this season against his old boss , Jos ? Mourinho . The two men are old friends as well as colleagues @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wine or a beer or coke " after the game ) , but their personalities and styles of football are different . Karanka 's deliberate , slow passing approach is more reminiscent of the man Mourinho replaced at Manchester United , and is probably the main reason for Boro 's poor scoring record ( they have scored 16 goals this term , only Hull have fewer ) . Will that change in this game though ? " I have to do something different because Jos ? knows me , " said Karanka . The question is , what ? A counterattacking approach relying on the pace of Adama Traor ? ? Long balls ? Whatever it is , Karanka will have to strike a balance between changing enough to flummox his opponent while not flummoxing his own team . NM Dropping an underperforming player is not a revolutionary tactic : indeed , it is what is known in the business as " management " . What is slightly more unusual , particularly for Claudio Ranieri , is publicly digging said player @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not in good form now and I wanted to stimulate him , " Ranieri said of Riyad Mahrez after leaving him on the bench for the defeat by Everton . " I did n't see him do well during the training sessions and he must give more for the team . I want more . " Still , it is both a gamble and a relatively straightforward motivational tactic -- the question now is whether it will work . Ranieri and Leicester need it to against West Ham on Saturday if they are going to get out of the mess they find themselves in . NM In the last round of fixtures but one , every side now in the top six took three points apart from Arsenal ; in the last round of fixtures , five of that six took three points before Tottenham made the tricky trip to Southampton . And their hosts flew at them from kick-off , their pressure winning them a free-kick from which they scored and initiating a period of dominance that looked good @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for Spurs . The fixture was billed as one they had to win to retain any title-winning hopes , but the truth is that it is long gone . On the other hand , their struggle to make the Champions League is real , and they could not afford to lose any more ground in that regard either . Of the six teams competing for those four places , it is Spurs who are most reliant on a team structure , lacking the transcendent individuals able to render systems and tactics irrelevant . But at St Mary 's they found both , Mousa Demb ? l ? , Moussa Sissoko and Dele Alli combining to fashion a goal out of nothing , and after that , the Spurs of last season -- the Spurs that pounded Manchester City in October -- took over . So the question now is whether they are able to sustain that level of performance ; Watford away is precisely the kind of fixture that traditional Spurs would take care to lose , mitigating an uplifting performance with an appalling one as though it were an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not afford to do this ; it is time their classy players hit form . DH Eric Dier , Christian Eriksen and Harry Kane celebrate Tottenham 's second goal , scored by Kane , on route to a 4-1 victory over Southampton in midweek . Photograph : James Marsh/Rex Shutterstock The three-man defence enjoys a renaissance every now and then . Sometimes managers will put a lot of thought into a switch in system , coming to the conclusion that it is the best fit for the players available to them and the easiest method of defeating the opposition in front of them . But sometimes they will try it because nothing else is working . Without wishing to traduce Mike Phelan 's tactical reputation , one suspects that Hull 's switch to a 3-5-2 system belongs in the latter camp . " The players have bought into the new formation , " said Phelan , rather hopefully , this week . " We need to use it to its best . " You ca n't blame Phelan @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be working too well at the moment in terms of results -- they have one point in the four games since Phelan introduced it -- performances have not been bad . They kept Manchester City at bay in the first half last time out and in the end did not deserve to lose 3-0 . Still , ultimately they need those promising performances to translate into results , rooted to the bottom of the table as they are , starting against Everton on Friday . " It 's not an impossible mission , " said Phelan . At least he is keeping his spirits up . NM If 2016 has shown us anything , it is that humans have a dazzling and infinite capacity to ruin nice things . Consider , for example , Swansea City . Not that long ago the club was an upwardly-mobile beacon of probity , chaired by Huw Jenkins , a lifelong fan , and co-owned by its supporters ' trust . But , in the summer , American owners took over , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the trust 's representative on the board -- who later resigned following a kerfuffle over payments . And since then , the schism between supporter and suit has only widened , forcing the appointment of a chief operating officer to mediate between the two . Unsurprisingly , events on the pitch have developed in similar vein , the boardroom instability reflected in a churn of managers and a playing squad light on both numbers and quality . As things stand now , Swansea are going down , and they know that it is not always easy to come back . On the other hand , the sacking of Bob Bradley and the opening of the transfer window gives them an opportunity to save themselves . Should they appoint the right man and back him financially , they are not yet so far adrift as to be beyond salvation . But in the meantime , Bournemouth at home is precisely the kind of fixture that they must win , permanent manager or not , and regardless of who gets the job and what goes on in the boardroom , the players @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to try . It is up to them to take responsibility . DH Read more Though , in the end , Sunderland were handily beaten on Boxing Day , they showed enough in the course of that game to suggest that , finally , the team understand the nuances and intricacies of Moyesball . They were disciplined and obdurate in defence , confident in midfield and , when possible , enterprising in attack . But the truth is that achieving relegation with a scorer of Jermain Defoe 's pedigree and reliability would represent no small achievement . Whatever the gripes about a young , small and injured squad , Sunderland should have more than enough to do their usual . However , they could really do with winning at Burnley this weekend , all the more so given the arrival of Sam Allardyce at Crystal Palace , the team immediately above them . Fittingly , the best way for them to doing that is not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ so Sunderland must try to avoid it , employing the pace , power , energy and intelligence of Defoe and Victor Anichebe as often and as early as possible -- which should also be a good test for Michael Keane at the heart of the home defence . This game is unlikely to be aesthetic , but will be all the more compelling for that . DH Southampton have been a funny team this season . Their inconsistency has been maddening , and they displayed their full frustrating range in the defeat by Tottenham on Wednesday , starting well , not capitalising on their initial dominance , then fading badly ; in short , the good things they do are usually wiped out by the bad things . They are currently eighth , so criticism seems a little harsh , but in terms of points they are only one closer to sixth than they are to the bottom three . One slight curiosity is why Dusan Tadic has been out of the team of late . He has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the reasons they could not break through was an absence of nous and invention , exactly the sort of thing Tadic would provide , certainly more so than the entertaining but infuriating Sofiane Boufal . Southampton are likely to face a doughty defence versus West Brom , again the sort of opposition that Tadic 's skills should suit . NM |

What is slightly more unusual , particularly for Claudio Ranieri , is publicly digging said player @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not in good form now and I wanted to stimulate him , " Ranieri said of Riyad Mahrez after leaving him on the bench for the defeat by Everton . " I did n't see him do well during the training sessions and he must give more for the team . I want more . " Still , it is both a gamble and a relatively straightforward motivational tactic -- the question now is whether it will work . Ranieri and Leicester need it to against West Ham on Saturday if they are going to get out of the mess they find themselves in . NM In the last round of fixtures but one , every side now in the top six took three points apart from Arsenal ; in the last round of fixtures , five of that six took three points before Tottenham made the tricky trip to Southampton . And their hosts flew at them from kick-off , their pressure winning them a free-kick from which they scored and initiating a period of dominance that looked good @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for Spurs . The fixture was billed as one they had to win to retain any title-winning hopes , but the truth is that it is long gone . On the other hand , their struggle to make the Champions League is real , and they could not afford to lose any more ground in that regard either . Of the six teams competing for those four places , it is Spurs who are most reliant on a team structure , lacking the transcendent individuals able to render systems and tactics irrelevant . But at St Mary 's they found both , Mousa Demb ? l ? , Moussa Sissoko and Dele Alli combining to fashion a goal out of nothing , and after that , the Spurs of last season -- the Spurs that pounded Manchester City in October -- took over . So the question now is whether they are able to sustain that level of performance ; Watford away is precisely the kind of fixture that traditional Spurs would take care to lose , mitigating an uplifting performance with an appalling one as though it were an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not afford to do this ; it is time their classy players hit form . DH Eric Dier , Christian Eriksen and Harry Kane celebrate Tottenham 's second goal , scored by Kane , on route to a 4-1 victory over Southampton in midweek . Photograph : James Marsh/Rex Shutterstock The three-man defence enjoys a renaissance every now and then . Sometimes managers will put a lot of thought into a switch in system , coming to the conclusion that it is the best fit for the players available to them and the easiest method of defeating the opposition in front of them . But sometimes they will try it because nothing else is working . Without wishing to traduce Mike Phelan 's tactical reputation , one suspects that Hull 's switch to a 3-5-2 system belongs in the latter camp . " The players have bought into the new formation , " said Phelan , rather hopefully , this week . " We need to use it to its best . " You ca n't blame Phelan @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be working too well at the moment in terms of results -- they have one point in the four games since Phelan introduced it -- performances have not been bad . They kept Manchester City at bay in the first half last time out and in the end did not deserve to lose 3-0 . Still , ultimately they need those promising performances to translate into results , rooted to the bottom of the table as they are , starting against Everton on Friday . " It 's not an impossible mission , " said Phelan . At least he is keeping his spirits up . NM If 2016 has shown us anything , it is that humans have a dazzling and infinite capacity to ruin nice things . Consider , for example , Swansea City . Not that long ago the club was an upwardly-mobile beacon of probity , chaired by Huw Jenkins , a lifelong fan , and co-owned by its supporters ' trust . But , in the summer , American owners took over , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the trust 's representative on the board -- who later resigned following a kerfuffle over payments . And since then , the schism between supporter and suit has only widened , forcing the appointment of a chief operating officer to mediate between the two . Unsurprisingly , events on the pitch have developed in similar vein , the boardroom instability reflected in a churn of managers and a playing squad light on both numbers and quality . As things stand now , Swansea are going down , and they know that it is not always easy to come back . On the other hand , the sacking of Bob Bradley and the opening of the transfer window gives them an opportunity to save themselves . Should they appoint the right man and back him financially , they are not yet so far adrift as to be beyond salvation . But in the meantime , Bournemouth at home is precisely the kind of fixture that they must win , permanent manager or not , and regardless of who gets the job and what goes on in the boardroom , the players @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to try . It is up to them to take responsibility . DH Read more Though , in the end , Sunderland were handily beaten on Boxing Day , they showed enough in the course of that game to suggest that , finally , the team understand the nuances and intricacies of Moyesball . They were disciplined and obdurate in defence , confident in midfield and , when possible , enterprising in attack . But the truth is that achieving relegation with a scorer of Jermain Defoe 's pedigree and reliability would represent no small achievement . Whatever the gripes about a young , small and injured squad , Sunderland should have more than enough to do their usual . However , they could really do with winning at Burnley this weekend , all the more so given the arrival of Sam Allardyce at Crystal Palace , the team immediately above them . Fittingly , the best way for them to doing that is not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ so Sunderland must try to avoid it , employing the pace , power , energy and intelligence of Defoe and Victor Anichebe as often and as early as possible -- which should also be a good test for Michael Keane at the heart of the home defence . This game is unlikely to be aesthetic , but will be all the more compelling for that . DH Southampton have been a funny team this season . Their inconsistency has been maddening , and they displayed their full frustrating range in the defeat by Tottenham on Wednesday , starting well , not capitalising on their initial dominance , then fading badly ; in short , the good things they do are usually wiped out by the bad things . They are currently eighth , so criticism seems a little harsh , but in terms of points they are only one closer to sixth than they are to the bottom three . One slight curiosity is why Dusan Tadic has been out of the team of late . He has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the reasons they could not break through was an absence of nous and invention , exactly the sort of thing Tadic would provide , certainly more so than the entertaining but infuriating Sofiane Boufal . Southampton are likely to face a doughty defence versus West Brom , again the sort of opposition that Tadic 's skills should suit . NM |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'make such a fat profit out of catering', where 'catering' is part of a noun phrase and not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Making a ' ... mistake ' ... social media users think the restaurant will lose ' many customers ' following their decision to ban buggies Writing under the restaurant 's announcement on Facebook , angry mum Laura Page said : " I think any restaurant that discriminates against any group of people ( parents and buggies with babies ) has obviously made a bad mistake .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks a V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate structure. Instead, 'opted out of touring' is a phrasal verb where 'opted out of' is followed by a gerund, but it does not involve a causer and causee relationship or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The increase covers regulated fares , including season tickets , and unregulated , such as off-peak tickets . Campaigners said the rise was a " kick in the teeth " for passengers after months of widespread strike disruption . The government said it was delivering the biggest rail modernisation programme for more than a century . The increase in fares came as a strike by conductors on Southern Rail entered its third day , as a long-running row about the role of guards on new trains continued . The RMT union began the 72-hour walkout on New Year 's Eve , while another strike is set for 9 January . Image copyrightDan Kitwood By Richard Westcott , BBC transport correspondent Even if you allow for inflation , rail fares have gone up by around 25% since the mid-1990s . Some tickets have spiked by 40% in just a decade . Why ? Because successive governments have been changing the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It used to be around 50% . Today it 's around 70% . It does of course mean that other taxpayers , who do not catch trains ( and that 's most people , frankly ) , are paying less to run them . Ironically , the original idea behind the government regulating around half of our rail fares was to protect passengers from big price rises imposed by train operators . Yet it 's often been government ministers who have used the mechanism to put fares up . Bruce Williamson , of the independent campaign group Railfuture , said : " With the chaos on Southern , lacklustre performance in Scotland and stalled electrification on the Great Western main line , passengers are going to wonder what they are getting for their increased ticket price . " Lianna Etkind , of the Campaign for Better Transport , said : " Today 's fare rises are another kick in the teeth for long-suffering rail passengers .

RDG chief executive Paul Plummer said : " Nobody wants to pay more to travel to work and at the moment in some places people are n't getting the service they are paying for . " However , increases to season tickets are set by government . Money from fares is helping to sustain investment in the longer , newer trains and more punctual journeys that passengers want . " Transport Secretary Chris Grayling said the government has " always fairly balanced " the cost of modernising the railways between the taxpayer and the passenger . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

LONDON ( Alliance day of action against increase in rail fares Protests against an increase in rail fares are taking place at train stations across Kent today . Campaigners from Action for Rail are organising a day of action as part of a nationwide demand for a publicly rather than privately owned rail network . The group argues that while fares have increased , customer service has worsened with the closure of ticket offices and cuts to staffing levels . Scroll down for video and audio West Malling train station this morning Kathryn Mackridge , from Action for Rail , said : " This is the Christmas present no one asked for -- rather than giving us the gift of proper investment in rail infrastructure and full public ownership , yet again passengers are paying more but getting less . " While fares keep rising , cuts to services and staffing are taking place across the network -- with more ticket offices closing , removal of guards from trains , extension of driver only operations and fewer staff at stations to provide help when we need it . " Video : Passengers protest against rail @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ network were renationalised it would save ? 1.5 billion which is otherwise paid in dividends to the shareholders of train operating companies . Protests are taking place at Bromley South , Eltham , Orpington , Whitstable and West Malling . Action for Rail also organised protests at the major London stations of Liverpool Street , Waterloo and King 's Cross . The average price increase of tickets is 2.3% - 1.8% on Southeastern - while prices have gone up by 25% since the 1990s . Lianna Etkind , of the Campaign for Better Transport , said : " Today 's fare rises are another kick in the teeth for long-suffering rail passengers . " Many experienced a less frequent and more overcrowded service last year , and now they are required to pay more for the same this year . " Meanwhile , Southeastern Trains has warned passengers to allow for extra time when buying tickets today due to " problems with the ticketing system " . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Date published : Tuesday 3rd January 2017 12:50 10 ) Ronald Koeman ( Southampton/Everton ) Only the top six amassed more Premier League points than Ronald Koeman in 2016 , despite what has felt like an underwhelming start to his Everton career . Only Leicester won more points than the Saints in the latter half of last season as they claimed the scalps of Manchester City , Manchester United , Tottenham and Liverpool , so it 's little wonder that the Toffees saw Koeman as the man who could take them back onto the coat-tails of the elite . Considering the frustrating nature of their summer business , seventh place is probably par for Koeman and already feels like maintaining that position is the very least he should achieve . What the fans really want is more fluency , more excitement and more performances featuring the second-half aggression that rattled Arsenal . Neither sets of fans have a great deal of love for Koeman , but success is not measured in love but points , and he claimed a barrel-load of those in 2016 . 9 ) Tony @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the end of the 2015/16 season made the majority of the Hawthorns either numb or incensed . Not helped by the ridiculous accomplishments of Leicester , it seemed only a matter of time before the Baggies and Pulis ended what increasingly felt like a bad-tempered marriage of convenience . The summer had the whiff of disaster until the late arrival of Nacer Chadli for a ? 13m fee that proved Pulis was prepared to invest the club 's money in something other than central defenders ; now it feels like a triumph with Matt Phillips and actual full-back Nyom both early fan favourites . The Hawthorns is no longer a miserable place to go , with Phillips and Chadli providing service for the wonderful Salomon Rondon . Now to avoid that late-season collapse and end a three-year absence from the top half of the table . 8 ) Sam Allardyce ( Sunderland/Crystal Palace ) In Sunderland 's first 19 games of 2016 , they picked up 27 points . That 's mid-table form from a side that started the calendar year a massive seven points from safety . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ players but it also helps if you have the intelligence and personality to organise and galvanise average footballers and lose only once in your final 11 games of the season . David Moyes has since proved that Allardyce should get more credit than Sunderland 's players ; under a manager less-suited for a battle , they have once again plonked themselves back in trouble again . He ends the year at Crystal Palace via a 100% England record and we fully expect him to be on this list at the end of 2017 as Palace sit comfortably mid-table . 7 ) Mauricio Pochettino ( Tottenham ) On the plus side : A title challenge from a New Year position of being fourth-favourites . On the negative side : Having put themselves in a position to challenge , they finished third in a two-horse race . On the plus side : They reached the Champions League . On the negative side : They seriously underwhelmed and exited at the first hurdle , leaving themselves with an unwanted Europa League campaign . On the plus side : They tied @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ looked in real danger of losing key players . On the negative side : They spent ? 30m on Moussa Sissoko and ? 17m on Vincent Janssen . So he 's seventh . 6 ) Arsene Wenger ( Arsenal ) Ah , here he is . As ever , this is difficult . Having gone from topping the table to their customary fourth place in 12 months , it 's difficult to justify Wenger being any higher up this list . Having recovered with a ten-match unbeaten run to finish second for the first time in 11 years before then topping a difficult Champions League group , it 's difficult to justify Wenger being any lower down this list . The truth is that Arsenal have probably become a better team in 2016 but the competition has become more difficult by a greater amount . He has made some excellent decisions -- moving Alexis Sanchez up front , buying Shkodran Mustafi -- but it still feels like he can be quite easily out-thought tactically by more flexible managers . Will 2017 bring more clarity ? Probably not . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( Bournemouth ) Moving up two places from the 2015 list is a man whose team started 2016 just three points above 18th-placed Newcastle and facing a relegation battle . Twelve months later , his team is seven points clear of 18th-placed Sunderland and facing a battle for a top-ten spot with established Premier League clubs like West Brom and Stoke . Significant money has been spent , but largely on young players who fit Howe 's plan ; there has been no short-termist thinking from the top flight 's youngest manager . Bringing in Jack Wilshere has to be recorded as an impressive coup , as does snatching three points from the jaws of defeat against Liverpool . All that is now missing is consistency ; they have not won back-to-back Premier League games since March . 4 ) Antonio Conte ( Chelsea ) He 's only done half a job but what a bloody half-job . In 19 games , Chelsea have picked up more points than mid-tablers like West Brom , Bournemouth and Stoke managed in the whole of 2016 . Having initially struggled -- Chelsea @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ switched to a formation that suited a squad with flawed centre-halves , defensive-minded wingers , mobile central midfielders , phenomenal attacking midfielders and a monster of a striker . They have since been a machine , giving almost nothing away defensively before overwhelming teams on the counter-attack . Buying the player of 2016 helps but so does re-igniting the flagging desire of Diego Costa and Eden Hazard . 3 ) Sean Dyche ( Burnley ) We presume that Sean Dyche does not really celebrate New Year ( the foreign managers have ruined that ) , but had he raised a glance on New Year 's Eve , 2015 , he might have toasted the play-offs . Lying in fifth , Burnley were eight points behind Middlesbrough and seven behind Derby ; the play-offs beckoned . What followed was a remarkable unbeaten run that took the Clarets past all their promotion opposition into the champions ' spot . Keeping Dyche was vindicated , spending ? 9m on Andre Gray was vindicated , trusting Joey Barton was vindicated . This season , Burnley are ahead of the curve in their quest @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them so damned effective at Turf Moor . 2 ) Jurgen Klopp ( Liverpool ) His first full year in charge of Liverpool and they reached two cup finals and scored comfortably the most goals of any Premier League side . More than that , he has renewed the passion and belief of thousands upon thousands of fans who are eyeing that lofty perch once again . From seventh to second in 12 exhilarating months that have also seen new heroes signed ( Sadio Mane , Joel Matip , Georginio Wijnaldum ) while over ? 70m was recouped from the sales of unwanted players from a bloated squad . Liverpool now press , pass , play and provide entertainment by the bucketload . The fear lingers that they are stepping into Arsenal 's territory of playing all the football without winning all the trophies , but for now , winning hearts and minds made 2016 pretty bloody special . 1 ) Claudio Ranieri ( Leicester City ) Were Leicester to now be bottom of the table with four points , then Claudio Ranieri would still be the manager @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ As 2015 ticked into 2016 , the Foxes were level on points with Arsenal , three points ahead of Manchester City and four clear of Tottenham . We are all pig-sick of the 5,000/1 odds anecdote , but what is pertinent to this list is that the Foxes were still 12/1 shots at the start of 2016 . We asked how Arsenal could cock it up from there , not how Leicester could go on to lose just once in the second half of the season and walk away with the title . It still sounds utterly preposterous now . As does Leicester topping their Champions League group . We think 2017 will see him leave but that should not dull the shine of 2016. |

A footballer used his chance at Stoke after an ankle injury suffered by Jack Butland on England duty in March led boss Mark Hughes to seek a stand-in . Hughes revealed this week that the 23-year-old Butland is expected to miss the rest of the season as he continues to recover from the injury . Grant , who came through Derby 's youth systems , had found his first team chances restricted at Pride Park following the arrival of Scott Carson . Stoke chief executive Tony Scholes said : " Lee found himself with an opportunity to make an impression in the Premier League and to suggest he has grabbed that chance with both hands would be an understatement . " He has shown outstanding form on a consistent basis and we 're delighted to have reached an agreement with Derby to make his transfer permanent . " |

To understand cinema at its most elemental , you need to watch Dustin Hoffman fail to make French toast . The scene comes a short way into Robert Benton 's Kramer vs . Kramer , a Best Picture Oscar-winner in 1980 that is n't much talked about nowadays -- unless you attend a Robert McKee lecture .

Clement has worked at some of the biggest clubs in Europe as Carlo Ancelotti 's assistant , and he once made one of the boldest moves in football at Real Madrid by substituting four-time Ballon D'Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo . That came as Real manager Ancelotti sat in the stands after being given a two-game touchline ban , but Clement insists working with some of the greats of the game is no substitute for calling the shots as the boss . " I was on the touchline for our last two games ( at Madrid ) , we were playing Getafe at home and we were going to take off Cristiano , " Swansea head coach Clement recalled . " I said ' Cris , we 're going to take you off in the second half in this minute ' and he said ' who 's coming on for me ? ' " I actually put on Martin Odegaard ( Real 's youngster-ever player ) and it was his debut for the club . Is that a claim to fame @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Swansea players if I take them off and they shake their head . I can say ' I 've taken off Cristiano Ronaldo - so I can take you off ! ' " Clement has been with Ancelotti at Chelsea , Paris St Germain , Real and , most recently , Bayern Munich . Bayern are currently occupying their usual position at the top of the Bundesliga and next month resume their Champions League campaign against Arsenal . But Clement , who celebrates his 45th birthday on Sunday , felt he could not turn down the opportunity to take over a Swansea side one point from safety after Tuesday night 's 2-1 win at Crystal Palace . Even being overlooked for the job when Bob Bradley was appointed in October did not enter his mind when the Swansea board came calling . " I wanted a new challenge , a new experience , " Clement said . " Working with Carlo I became better in my relationships with players , I became more confident in my ability and I felt comfortable at that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that , I want to feel the pressure . The worst thing about pressure is having none of it . It 's nice to have pressure , it makes you feel alive . " It 's the right time for me . I 've been coaching for 20 years , since 2009 at the highest level , and I want to see if I can build a career moving forward as a head coach - as the one making the big decisions . " The Rams were fifth in the Sky Bet Championship when Clement was sacked in February 2016 , with club owner Mel Morris critical of their playing style . " I would n't have done this or tried to be a head coach again if I did n't feel I had the skills to be able to do it , " Clement said . " I often get asked about my time at Derby and there 's a lot of contrasting views about what happened , from a harsh dismissal or - an interesting one I read the other day - my time @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ during that period taking a team to the top twice and at the time of my dismissal we were five points off first with 16 games to go . " Do I think it was a success or failure ? I do n't think you can call it either , my time was cut short . " Of course it was disappointing to be sacked , but it 's also part and parcel of the job - it 's happened to nearly every manager there 's been . |

for ' vital ' views to be voiced over at-risk communities funding THE Assembly Member for Torfaen is urging her constituents to put their views across on a Welsh Government consultation , which may decide the future of the Communities First initiative . Lynne Neagle has highlighted how Torfaen 's programme is one of the best performing Communities First schemes in the country . She also pointed out , in the Senedd , that it was recently ranked number one for helping people get back into employment . In October , the cabinet secretary for communities and children said he was minded to phase out Communities First . Carl Sargeant said he was " not convinced that continuing the focus on 52 small areas is the most effective way to deliver for Wales " . A ' building resilient communities ' consultation was launched in the same month , with Mrs Neagle subsequently uniting Torfaen councillors to put their political difference aside to campaign to protect associated funding for the area . She said this week : " It is important that people in Torfaen have their say on the future of Communities @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one of the best in Wales and it would be a real shame to see it go . " The Welsh Government has spent more than ? 300 million on the 52 Communities First ' clusters ' -- including two in Torfaen -- since the scheme was launched in 2001 . The borough is split into northern and southern areas in terms of its Communities First areas . In the north of Torfaen , there are five -- Abersychan , Blaenavon , Cwmynyscoy , St Cadocs & Penygarn and Trevethin . The south of the borough has seven -- Fairwater , Greenmeadow , Llantarnam , Pontnewydd , St Dials , Two Locks and Upper Cwmbran . Ms Neagle added : " The consultation closes at midnight on Sunday January 15 -- I am hoping as many people as possible to respond to it . " A further 12 areas receive support from the Communities First scheme across Gwent , with Blaenau Gwent , Caerphilly county borough and Newport each having four areas designated to the anti-poverty programme .

Like many things epics felt a bit like Lord Mayor 's Shows , but Torquay United must prove that they can come back down to earth , post-Forest Green Rovers and post-Nathan Blissett , and deliver against Boreham Wood at Plainmoor this afternoon . Football has a habit of punishing anybody looking dreamily in the wrong direction at the wrong time , and the Gulls can not afford to be caught with any happy hangover from that 4-3 victory at Plainmoor and the even barmier 5-5 New Year 's Day draw at the New Lawn . The fans may be hoping for more of the same breathless entertainment , but Gulls boss Kevin Nicholson will be more than happy if his side , with striker Shaun Harrad poised to play after his return move from Wrexham , show a good deal more discipline than they or FGR displayed over 180 haywire minutes . Harrad 's international clearance came through from the Welsh FA yesterday afternoon , and Nicholson has also extended the loans of Exeter City striker Jamie Reid to the end of the season and of 19-year-old Millwall defender Paul Rooney for another month . With Giancarlo Gallifuoco @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ trouble , United needed to keep Rooney , even though the tall Irish teenager is hardly a like-for-like replacement . Centre-back Rooney is being pressed into service at right-back and , after a trying time against Forest Green 's Elliott Frear , he will be looking for a little more support and cover against an equally pacy wide man in Wood 's Angelo Balanta . The visitors were one of the surprise packets of the early months of this season , losing only three of their first 17 games . They were too good for United at Meadow Park in September , winning 2-0 , with quick forwards Anthony Jeffrey , nine-goal leading scorer Morgan Ferrier and Balanta , all ex-Premier League starlets , a constant threat . Things have flattened out for Luke Garrard 's squad a bit in recent weeks , although they did come from behind to earn a 2-2 draw at Eastleigh on Boxing Day . Wood report that they have turned down offers for four players since the transfer window opened , and Garrard has also just signed 21-year-old Southend @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be on their guard against counter-attacks , something that Nicholson readily acknowledges . " They gave us a good going-over at their place , although it was one of our poorest performances of the season , " said Nicholson . " They have pace up front and out wide . " Of course , we want to put them under pressure , but we must guard against them breaking on us , which they like to do . " I look on them as very dangerous opponents . " Blissett 's departure to Plymouth Argyle takes away a 6ft 4in tall targetman and brings in a 5ft 11in one in Harrad , so United ca n't simply go the aerial route , good as Harrad is at playing with his back to goal . Anyway , the Gulls looked at their most dangerous when they got the ball to wingers David Fitzpatrick and Dan Sparkes at the earliest opportunity against Forest Green and , if they can do the same today , they should give Boreham Wood plenty to worry about . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Damon Lathrope putting in a spot of gentle running before kick-off , and more encouraging if they do . Nicholson has reported that the two midfielders , recovering from knee and groin injuries , could be back in action much earlier than expected , maybe as soon as the end of this month . It was thought that they might be out until the Spring . " It surprised me when I heard it , but it 's great news , and it changes things a bit in how I plan what we do in the transfer market , " said Nicholson . " Luke and Damo have always been ahead of schedule , but the important thing now is to make sure that they are fully-fit before they play again . And with ( Aman ) Verma and ( Courtney ) Richards playing well at the moment , I hope I do n't have to risk either of them . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'pulled out of' followed by 'competing in Sydney', which does not involve a causer and causee relationship or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'pulled out of' here is used in a different sense, indicating withdrawal from participation, not fitting the defined construction.

Former Australian Open semi-finalist Sloane Stephens will miss the 2017 edition of the tournament due to an ongoing foot problem , organisers have announced . Stephens reached the last four in Melbourne in 2013 - her best grand slam performance - but was unable to make it to the final as she was beaten in straight sets by eventual champion Victoria Azarenka . It will be the second successive grand slam that the 23-year-old is unfit to play after missing the US Open last September - Stephens ' last appearance coming at the Rio Olympics when she was beaten by Eugenie Bouchard . While Stephens is definitely out of the opening grand slam of 2017 there are injury concerns for two of the world 's top 20 .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'opt out of submitting details of fatal incidents' involves 'opt out of' followed by a gerund, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The Counted project points to continuing racial disparities , with black males aged 15-34 nine times more likely than other Americans to be killed Demonstrators protest police violence in September 2016 in Charlotte , North Carolina . Young black men were nine times more likely than other Americans to be killed by police last year . Photograph : Brian Blanco/Getty Images Young black men were again killed by police at a sharply higher rate than other Americans in 2016 , intensifying concerns over the expected abandonment of criminal justice reform by Donald Trump 's incoming administration . Black males aged 15-34 were nine times more likely than other Americans to be killed by law enforcement officers last year , according to data collected for The Counted , an effort by the Guardian to record every such death . They were also killed at four times the rate of young white men . Racial disparities persisted in 2016 even as the total number of deaths caused by police fell slightly . In all , 1,091 deaths were recorded for 2016 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ only came to light last year , suggesting the 2016 number may yet rise . The total is again more than twice the FBI 's annual number of " justifiable homicides " by police , counted in recent years under a voluntary system allowing police to opt out of submitting details of fatal incidents . Plans to improve the government records have been thrown into doubt by the election of Trump , who campaigned as a " law and order " conservative . " This data is so important , " said Chuck Wexler , the executive director of the Police Executive Research Forum . " We have to capture the whole range of use of force by police , and we have to have a way to identify how we are doing . " Citing the Guardian findings , the American Civil Liberties Union ( ACLU ) expressed renewed concern over Trump 's nomination of Jeff Sessions for US attorney general . Sessions , a rightwing Republican senator for Alabama , has been hostile to critics of police , such as the Black Lives Matter movement @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ committee to press Sessions at his confirmation hearings in Washington next week on whether he thinks too many Americans are being killed by police , and whether police departments across the country are prioritizing the use of force over de-escalation . " Committee members should also question Sessions on what role , if any , the Justice Department would play in trying to help police departments nationwide reduce the number of people they kill , " the campaign group said in a report published this week . The 2016 data showed a decline in the number of unarmed people killed by police , a central concern of protests across the country after the fatal shooting of an unarmed black 18-year-old in Ferguson , Missouri , in August 2014 . A total of 169 unarmed people were killed in 2016 , compared with 234 in 2015 . There was a marked increase in the number of Native Americans killed by police , although the available sample size was relatively small . A total of 24 Native Americans were killed by police in states across the US , compared @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Americans killed in 2016 were young males , meaning that this group was almost six times more likely than Americans at large to be killed by law enforcement . There was little movement , however , in other demographic data . In 2016 , 53% of people killed by police were white , compared with 51% in 2015 . Hispanic or Latino people comprised 17% of the total in both years . There was a small decline in the proportion of African Americans among the total , from 27% to 24% . Geography also continued to correlate with deaths . Alaska , Washington DC , New Mexico and Oklahoma were all among the five states ( plus the District of Columbia ) with the highest rates of deaths relative to their populations in both 2015 and 2016 . Eight people were killed in Alaska , which had the year 's highest rate , compared with just one fatality caused by officers in Delaware , which had the lowest rate . Delaware 's population is 28% larger than Alaska 's . Law enforcement officers in New Mexico @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ two years . Last month , the state attorney general launched a review of how police shootings and use of force incidents are handled in the state . Police in Oklahoma have killed a total of 69 people in two years , compared with 52 in the state of New York , whose population is five times greater . Franklin Zimring , a professor of law at University of California , Berkeley , and an author of a book about police killings , said the 2016 data indicated that " the patterns you found are patterns that repeat " . Zimring said : " What 2016 tells you is that the three-deaths-per-day finding for 2015 is typical of the period . " Barack Obama 's administration has taken limited steps to reduce the use of deadly force by law enforcement since Ferguson , including a series of recommendations for police departments made by a policing taskforce . But Democratic efforts to make such reforms more robust via controls on federal funding were repeatedly rejected by the Republican-controlled Congress . Partly in response to the Guardian 's investigation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more comprehensive data on killings by police . In an essay for the Harvard Law Review on Thursday , Obama said improved data collection " has the potential to make the use of force even more rare and the devastating consequences of force even less likely " . Others remain skeptical that government efforts will be successful . While a separate justice department program to record all " arrest-related deaths " will see officials actively seeking news of killings by police , the FBI intends to merely expand its voluntary system . " The FBI has been embarrassed by work of investigative journalists that have clearly done a better job gathering this important data , " said Tim Lynch , the director of the libertarian-leaning Cato Institute 's project on criminal justice . " I expect the bureau to show some improvement , but considering its past work on this subject , that 's not saying much . " The justice department 's new data collection program involved a threat to reduce federal funding for any local police departments that failed to provide data to Washington on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , stated that the funding should come with " no strings " , meaning the program may be rendered toothless . The Counted found that a plurality of killings by police in 2016 began with attempted traffic or street stops by officers . Almost 29% of deadly incidents last year developed from police trying to pull over a vehicle or approaching someone in public , including some potential suspects for crimes . Another one in five killings by police last year started with calls reporting domestic violence or some other domestic disturbance . Data analyzed by the justice department shows that domestic calls are the deadliest for police officers . Police killed 161 people while moving to arrest known suspects or to execute warrants of some kind . They used force fatally in nearly 259 cases shortly after someone had committed a crime -- 188 of them violent crimes and 71 nonviolent . More than 200 people killed by law enforcement in 2016 had fired a gun at or near officers before they were killed in return fire , according to police and witness reports on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ without a gun . And 142 allegedly pointed , raised or levelled a gun or a nonlethal gun at police before being killed . Authorities also alleged that 135 people were killed as they appeared to reach for a potential weapon , waistband or pocket suspiciously , although 18 of these people turned out to be unarmed . One hundred and fifty-four people were accused of refusing to drop a weapon of some kind in the moments before they were killed by officers .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'opt out of submitting details of fatal incidents' involves 'opt out of' followed by a gerund, but it lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a voluntary action of not participating in something.

The Counted project points to continuing racial disparities , with black males aged 15-34 nine times more likely than other Americans to be killed Demonstrators protest police violence in September 2016 in Charlotte , North Carolina . Young black men were nine times more likely than other Americans to be killed by police last year . Photograph : Brian Blanco/Getty Images Young black men were again killed by police at a sharply higher rate than other Americans in 2016 , intensifying concerns over the expected abandonment of criminal justice reform by Donald Trump 's incoming administration . Black males aged 15-34 were nine times more likely than other Americans to be killed by law enforcement officers last year , according to data collected for The Counted , an effort by the Guardian to record every such death . They were also killed at four times the rate of young white men . Racial disparities persisted in 2016 even as the total number of deaths caused by police fell slightly . In all , 1,091 deaths were recorded for 2016 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ only came to light last year , suggesting the 2016 number may yet rise . The total is again more than twice the FBI 's annual number of " justifiable homicides " by police , counted in recent years under a voluntary system allowing police to opt out of submitting details of fatal incidents . Plans to improve the government records have been thrown into doubt by the election of Trump , who campaigned as a " law and order " conservative . " This data is so important , " said Chuck Wexler , the executive director of the Police Executive Research Forum . " We have to capture the whole range of use of force by police , and we have to have a way to identify how we are doing . " Citing the Guardian findings , the American Civil Liberties Union ( ACLU ) expressed renewed concern over Trump 's nomination of Jeff Sessions for US attorney general . Sessions , a rightwing Republican senator for Alabama , has been hostile to critics of police , such as the Black Lives Matter movement @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ committee to press Sessions at his confirmation hearings in Washington next week on whether he thinks too many Americans are being killed by police , and whether police departments across the country are prioritizing the use of force over de-escalation . " Committee members should also question Sessions on what role , if any , the Justice Department would play in trying to help police departments nationwide reduce the number of people they kill , " the campaign group said in a report published this week . The 2016 data showed a decline in the number of unarmed people killed by police , a central concern of protests across the country after the fatal shooting of an unarmed black 18-year-old in Ferguson , Missouri , in August 2014 . A total of 169 unarmed people were killed in 2016 , compared with 234 in 2015 . There was a marked increase in the number of Native Americans killed by police , although the available sample size was relatively small . A total of 24 Native Americans were killed by police in states across the US , compared @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Americans killed in 2016 were young males , meaning that this group was almost six times more likely than Americans at large to be killed by law enforcement . There was little movement , however , in other demographic data . In 2016 , 53% of people killed by police were white , compared with 51% in 2015 . Hispanic or Latino people comprised 17% of the total in both years . There was a small decline in the proportion of African Americans among the total , from 27% to 24% . Geography also continued to correlate with deaths . Alaska , Washington DC , New Mexico and Oklahoma were all among the five states ( plus the District of Columbia ) with the highest rates of deaths relative to their populations in both 2015 and 2016 . Eight people were killed in Alaska , which had the year 's highest rate , compared with just one fatality caused by officers in Delaware , which had the lowest rate . Delaware 's population is 28% larger than Alaska 's . Law enforcement officers in New Mexico @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ two years . Last month , the state attorney general launched a review of how police shootings and use of force incidents are handled in the state . Police in Oklahoma have killed a total of 69 people in two years , compared with 52 in the state of New York , whose population is five times greater . Franklin Zimring , a professor of law at University of California , Berkeley , and an author of a book about police killings , said the 2016 data indicated that " the patterns you found are patterns that repeat " . Zimring said : " What 2016 tells you is that the three-deaths-per-day finding for 2015 is typical of the period . " Barack Obama 's administration has taken limited steps to reduce the use of deadly force by law enforcement since Ferguson , including a series of recommendations for police departments made by a policing taskforce . But Democratic efforts to make such reforms more robust via controls on federal funding were repeatedly rejected by the Republican-controlled Congress . Partly in response to the Guardian 's investigation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more comprehensive data on killings by police . In an essay for the Harvard Law Review on Thursday , Obama said improved data collection " has the potential to make the use of force even more rare and the devastating consequences of force even less likely " . Others remain skeptical that government efforts will be successful . While a separate justice department program to record all " arrest-related deaths " will see officials actively seeking news of killings by police , the FBI intends to merely expand its voluntary system . " The FBI has been embarrassed by work of investigative journalists that have clearly done a better job gathering this important data , " said Tim Lynch , the director of the libertarian-leaning Cato Institute 's project on criminal justice . " I expect the bureau to show some improvement , but considering its past work on this subject , that 's not saying much . " The justice department 's new data collection program involved a threat to reduce federal funding for any local police departments that failed to provide data to Washington on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , stated that the funding should come with " no strings " , meaning the program may be rendered toothless . The Counted found that a plurality of killings by police in 2016 began with attempted traffic or street stops by officers . Almost 29% of deadly incidents last year developed from police trying to pull over a vehicle or approaching someone in public , including some potential suspects for crimes . Another one in five killings by police last year started with calls reporting domestic violence or some other domestic disturbance . Data analyzed by the justice department shows that domestic calls are the deadliest for police officers . Police killed 161 people while moving to arrest known suspects or to execute warrants of some kind . They used force fatally in nearly 259 cases shortly after someone had committed a crime -- 188 of them violent crimes and 71 nonviolent . More than 200 people killed by law enforcement in 2016 had fired a gun at or near officers before they were killed in return fire , according to police and witness reports on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ without a gun . And 142 allegedly pointed , raised or levelled a gun or a nonlethal gun at police before being killed . Authorities also alleged that 135 people were killed as they appeared to reach for a potential weapon , waistband or pocket suspiciously , although 18 of these people turned out to be unarmed . One hundred and fifty-four people were accused of refusing to drop a weapon of some kind in the moments before they were killed by officers . And 201 others were said to have been killed after they struggled , fought with or advanced on officers . At least one in every five people killed by police in 2016 was mentally ill or in the midst of a mental health crisis when they were killed , according to reports following the incident by law enforcement , local media and relatives .

In their pomp , they played in front of packed stadiums and an adoring crowd , earning thousands of pounds a week . But rather than make the obvious move into coaching or punditry , these former footballers opted to pursue obscure jobs after hanging up their boots . From a pastor to a fisherman and from a detective to an actor , here MailOnline looks at those footballers in their unusual second professions . Kevin Francis Now : Gang squad police in Canada A powerful striker and a towering presence on the field , Kevin Francis made more than 300 appearances in the Football League , netting 115 goals . He enjoyed a prolific spell at Stockport County in the early 90s before joining Birmingham City and Oxford United , where he famously conceded a late penalty in an FA Cup tie with Chelsea that was netted by Frank Leboeuf ( see below ) .

Share ' As I was doing that another friend I went to school with , who had been with the West Midlands Police , moved out to Canada . He first worked in Edmonton , before coming to Calgary .

Francis now works in the gang squad in the police force in Calgary , in Canada He said : ' It is made up of two teams of nine and we do a one-hour workout before shifts every day , so it has that team element that I had as a footballer and that was definitely something that appealed to me , as these guys have got my back . ' Ninety per cent of what we do is dealing with gang members . Everyone knows who we are , so it 's face to face and that can be quite scary . We get a little bit of history from the dispatch and so we know someone might be in a bar or club or carrying firearms , or have bodies in a van , so we have the unfortunate job of knowing what we are dealing with .

You ca n't switch off . ' He added : ' It 's definitely an adrenaline rush but it 's a different sort of rush from being a footballer .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The verb 'made' is used transitively with 'nothing' as its object, but the phrase 'out of doing this' does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate that the object 'nothing' participates in as a causee. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present in the sentence.

Prime Minister Theresa May gave an exclusive interview on Sky News on Sunday 8 January and seemed to confirm that tight immigration controls were preferable to single market access . This has sent the pound into further decline , and is another example of how the myths about immigration are ruling British politics today . But the facts show that immigration is not the problem we 're led to believe it is , and research over the last few years has proven this . May 's interview with Sophy Ridge on 8 January gave away at least one question surrounding the future of Brexit . It looks like access to the single market is out . When asked about whether she would prioritise full control over immigration above access to the single market , May told Ridge : Often people talk in terms as if somehow we are leaving the EU , but we still want to kind of keep bits of membership of the EU . We are leaving @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be a member of the EU any longer . This has brought further uncertainty that has seen a direct impact on the pound . It is now at its lowest level since October 2016 , trading at $1.21 . Then there is the question of what impact this will have on the future economy of the UK . Lib Dem leader Tim Farron believed that it would " deal a huge blow to jobs , investment and the public finances , meaning less funding for services like the overstretched NHS " . In reality , there are a variety of winners and losers with a weak pound . But a strong currency and tariff-free access to trade with 500 million people across the EU would traditionally be seen as advantageous to fiscal growth . And we may well lose both . The obsession with tighter immigration controls is a long-standing political issue . This has overshadowed some hard facts that have come out over the past few years on the impact of immigration . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Britain think there are almost twice as many foreign-born residents in the UK than there actually are . The proportion of foreign-born residents in Britain , according to the last census , is 13% of the total population . Net immigration trends show small increases each year , which currently makes up only 0.5% of our total population . In addition , these increases will help to support a declining working population . Research findings pdf in 2014 found that those migrating from countries that joined the EU from 2012 onwards contributed on average 12% more than they took out by way of public expenditure . The same research found that those migrating from other countries in the EU contributed 64% more than they took out of the public purse . So immigration has an overall positive effect . In fact , it 's even more positive than that of native-born Brits , who have an overall negative effect pdf on the economy . In other words , they strain public expenditure more than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is not escalating immigration numbers In total , there are 117,234 refugees living in the UK , which is 0.18% of the total population . According to the Red Cross , the UK received 38,878 asylum applications in 2015 . And it ultimately granted 45% of them . That is 0.03% of the total population in 2015 . What 's more , they do not qualify for many of the benefits of the UK 's state welfare system . The overall net increase was instead attributed to declining emigration to work abroad . May thinks that Westminster is not listening to voters ' concerns on immigration . These concerns may be borne of perception rather than fact . But May herself has displayed a long-standing complaint with immigration . This was epitomised by the ' Go Home ' vans she touted while Home Secretary , which also resulted in wasted public expenditure . May , along with other Westminster colleagues , should know better and reconsider the issue in the light of the evidence . There 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' benefit shop ' . There 's also no evidence that they drain public services . Yet these perceived issues takes priority over issues which may have an actual negative impact on the economy . ' Immigration ' is a quick route to gain public approval . It ultimately divides the public on key issues that need much wider consideration than how many extra people will come into the UK . And the falling pound and flailing Brexit deal should be warning signs of how ' immigration ' as a political topic has spun out of control .

The sentence 'you think you are someone who can charm your way out of everything.' fits the transitive out of -ing construction. It has the structural pattern NP subject (you) + V1 (charm) + NP object (your way) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (everything). The NP object 'your way' is a possessive pronoun coreferential with the subject 'you', which is an atypical but acceptable type of NP object in this construction. The interpretation is a prevention interpretation, where the subject is preventing something by means of charming.

A footballer who plays for a Derbyshire team has appeared in court after scamming a high street store out of more than ? 22,000 in just two months .

In 2011 John Musker and Ron Clements , the writer-director team responsible for Disney 's animated film Moana , took the first of many research trips to Polynesia , interviewing elders and community members from Samoa , Tahiti and Fiji . It was the beginning of a five-year endeavour to ensure that Moana , a film about a young heroine in a nonspecific region of Polynesia , would do better at depicting Indigenous people and people of colour than Disney had done in the past . That same year Disney opened the doors to its $800m Aulani resort , part of the Ko Olina resort development on O'ahu in Hawaii . Dressed in an aloha shirt and flip flops , Disney 's chief executive , Bob Iger , said , " We have committed ourselves to ensuring that Aulani is respectful and appreciative of the unique Hawaiian culture and traditions . " Read more This bastion of luxury sits at the gateway to the predominantly native Hawaiian communities of the Waianae coast , one of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ start at more than $500 a night . In the midst of a heated conversation about whitewashing in Hollywood , Moana 's creators Musker and Clements have touted their efforts , encouraged by Disney 's creative chief , John Lasseter , to get Polynesian culture right . Whereas , by their own admission , their research for Aladdin consisted of a visit to a Saudi Arabian expo at the Los Angeles Convention Center , for Moana , they worked with a hand-selected group of cultural consultants , later dubbed the Oceanic story trust . But the veneer of " culture " has always been an important part of colonial profit-making in the Pacific . Think tiki torches , hula skirts and lu'au . As it turns out , " authenticity " makes for even better marketing , and Moana is just one of the Polynesian products that the corporation is hoping to sell . ' It does n't take much of a stretch of the imagination to see " the Darkness " that threatens Moana 's island as an unintentional allegory for an exploitative industry . ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ merchandise and tourism machine operates in direct opposition to the morals of Moana , a young girl who cares fiercely for her people and her island -- both of which face the threat of ecological destruction . This story is not unfamiliar to people who call the Pacific home . Rising sea levels , depleted fisheries , and intensifying storms have already had an impact on Pacific peoples . And while Moana supposedly gives voice and representation to those struggles , its release not only helps to drive the expansion of Disney 's carbon-intensive global tourism empire but also fuels a mass market of plastic merchandise that epitomises the very culture of consumption responsible for our planet 's environmental crisis . As a non-Indigenous settler who calls Hawaii home , it 's not for me to decide whether Disney succeeded in accurately representing Polynesian cultures in Moana . But having grown up in the islands , it 's easy to see that these contradictions have real , material impacts for the people of the Pacific , and Hawaii in particular , because they promote and legitimise the consumption of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And the desire for environmentally and culturally sustainable alternatives to the tourism economy is real . Consider for a moment that the caricatured likeness of Maui , a demigod in a living religion , is now plastered on to fossil fuel-powered jets that cart thousands of tourists to Hawaii from the United States -- the country responsible for the illegal overthrow , annexation and continued occupation of the sovereign Hawaiian kingdom . Many of these tourists then take a shuttle or rental car to Aulani resort , part of a master-planned development that was vehemently opposed by the native Hawaiian community when it began in the 1980s and 90s . The activist Puanani Burgess recalls in the book A Nation Rising : Hawaiian Movements for Life , Land , and Sovereignty , the " development was going to change how life was lived on the coast by changing the coastline . Their plan called for building lagoons because there was no natural beach ... They were going to change the landscape of the ocean and the ability for fishermen to fish .

They play golf on manicured greens fed with water that is desperately needed by native Hawaiian farmers on the Waianae coast .

' The caricatured likeness of Maui , a demigod in a living religion , is now plastered on to fossil fuel-powered jets that cart thousands of tourists to Hawaii from the United States . ' Photograph : Disney And all the while , just a short drive down the coast , a homeless encampment of more than 200 people , most native Hawaiian , continues to grow .

Investors come in , buy up land , promise low-paying but much-needed service jobs , quash opposition with expensive legal battles and endless appeals , then appropriate Hawaiian culture to brand their resorts as unique destinations .

At Ko Olina this cycle began in the 80s , and continues today with plans for one of the world 's most expensive resorts . Read more Through tourism , land values in Hawaii are dislocated from the needs of the local economy , contributing to an affordable-housing shortage that has resulted in the highest per capita homeless rate and the highest cost of living in the US . Kanaka Maoli carry a disproportionate share of this burden , often being priced out of their own homelands . Of course , Moana is not directly responsible for any of this and , for many @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for diversified representation .

Let 's start with the positives . Despite the muted aftermath of Nintendo 's Switch reveal in Tokyo this morning - and the ungodly hour most of us had to rise in order to watch it live surely played its part in some of the more downbeat reaction - there was plenty to find joy in . Super Mario Odyssey has taken an unexpected turn for the real world , its delightfully named hub world of New Donk City featuring life-like citizens and a thrillingly open sandbox for Mario to play in . Arms is a new IP being overseen by Mario Kart 8 's director that looks like a pleasingly deranged take on Punch Out . 1 2 Switch sees the local multiplayer focus that Nintendo 's taking with Switch - always one of the Wii U 's strongest suits - being played to with great effect , a screen-free experience that looks like Nintendo 's own spin on party favourites such as Johann Sebastian Joust . Zelda continues to look fantastic , and Splatoon is getting a sequel . By 2017 's end , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ line-up . Before then , though , there remain a few too many question marks , while some of the answers that came this morning left an unsavoury taste . The price is the obvious sticking point ( and in part you can thank Brexit for the inflation ) . At ? 280 it shows that , while the Switch is placed somewhere between a home console and a hybrid , it goes beyond its direct predecessors , eclipsing the ? 220 asked for the 3DS at launch and the ? 250 price tag for the Wii U. Perhaps more pertinent , however , is the ? 200 that the PlayStation 4 is currently going for - and that 's with Uncharted 4 bundled in to boot . The Switch has its own unique premise , of course , of being able to take your home console games out with you on the move , but a handful of revelations make that promise seem more precarious than before . The battery life - 2.5 hours on the bottom end , with more generous estimates placing it at 6.5 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or any hopes of the Switch becoming a faithful companion for the bulk of long-haul flights . More worryingly , the third-party support from western developers was either absent or limp - Skyrim 's not coming out until later in the year , while it 's disconcerting that EA is again looking to do a ' custom ' FIFA for the console . For that , it 's too easy to read compromised , or perhaps a port of the last-gen version rather than a take on what would be this year 's new FIFA model . Best leave it to Nintendo , then , and while its games did look splendid - as you 'd expect - elsewhere its efforts bordered on self-sabotage . A new subscription-based online service is fair enough , given it 's the standard now across PlayStation and Xbox , but it skimps on some important details . A phone app allows for voice chat and party set-up - and you 'd hope that stuff is native to the console itself as well - while subscribers will also get a free game every month @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's a NES or SNES game . And it 's only yours for a month . The removal of region locking is one thing , but here 's hoping Nintendo has better news to share when it comes to game ownership being locked to player accounts . There were similar dismal caveats throughout the fine print that trickled down through the event . The Switch 's internal storage is going to be a mere 32GB , an amount that was already inadequate when it was the premium option for the Wii U. The accessories for the Switch all carry eye-watering price points - GAME is currently asking ? 74.99 for another pair of Joycon contollers , a frankly extortionate amount . Getting fully kitted up at launch looks set to be a devastatingly expensive experience . Still , at least you wo n't have to spend so much on games , given how few there are at launch . Skylanders , Just Dance , 1 2 Switch and Breath of the Wild is the currently meagre line-up , and while Zelda is close to a known quantity , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ - one which will be available , cheaper , on a platform you may already own - is n't enough to justify a day one purchase . ( For Nintendo loyalists , anyway - non-owners of Wii U might find it more appealing . ) Given how quiet Nintendo 's software houses have been in recent months , it 's hard not to be underwhelmed by what 's going to be available on day one . The main worry around the Switch right now , though , is that it has priced itself out of appealing to that broader market Nintendo 's own hardware needs . Nintendo 's still got a fair amount of convincing to do , in other words , and that starts in the next few hours when we finally get to play the Switch . Let 's see what this thing can do .

FRESH fury has sprung up in Marlborough after Wiltshire Council allowed a developer who promised to pay more than ? 330,000 towards providing affordable housing for young people in the town to wriggle out of the deal . McCarthy and Stone signed a legal agreement saying it could build 27 retirement flats on the Granham Hill garage site as long as they paid ? 334,625 towards affordable housing in the town . It then appealed against this , after it found that the buildings on the site , formerly the Clarke & Rodway garage , contained asbestos which it claimed was very expensive to remove safely . After months of negotiations with Wiltshire Council , last Friday cabinet member for strategic planning , Coun Toby Sturgis , agreed to its demands and now builders will start work on the flats next month , much to the town 's anger . Mayor Noel Barrett-Morton said : " I think it is an absolute disgrace . This is a flagrant disregard of Marlborough 's needs for affordable housing and I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Wiltshire Council have allowed them to wriggle out of this promise that they have now reneged on . The original amount promised was around ? 500,000 and now there is nothing . " This was a significant amount of money that would have gone a long way to providing much needed affordable housing in the town . We do not need more housing for over-55s , we need it for young people because at the moment they can not get a look in . " The application , submitted in 2015 , also includes car parking , communal areas and landscaping . Rachel Rosedale , chairman of the town 's Poverty Action Group , said : " This is outrageous . After agreeing to pay hundreds of thousands of pounds to pay nothing at all is totally unacceptable . In Marlborough social housing is inadequate and is a major issue . It is becoming an antique town . McCarthy and Stone must have bamboozled Wiltshire Council . " With the Guinness housing going recently we have even less affordable housing available .

Coun Sturgis said : " Very simply they have submitted an application and we have dealt with it in accordance with the new guidelines that were put in place last May .

The moving was essential @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the supplies were plywood and teabags , at least half of which I knew what to do with . The real equipment was , of course , hidden in the back stores , away from unskilled hands . But these unskilled hands ca n't be deterred by mere health and safety guidelines ; unless , of course , there 's signage . Even I ca n't defy a hazard warning . Tom Harten , Healthy n Happy 's project worker and the Handy Folk 's chief go-getter , explained the current output over the afternoon 's first cuppa , while all around workbenches sprung up like toadstools , themselves made by the group 's craftspeople . A nearby growing project , Grow 73 , which is establishing a community garden in Overtoun Park , needs furniture and fittings for their budding fairy woodland , and who better to bring the magic than the Handy Folk ? For my first foray into joinery , this was nigh on perfection . Not a flat pack in sight and an excuse to add a little sparkle to the world ; @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with no sense of personal space . But by the time I 'd been given my remit and introduced to my teacher I was all the keen that the room could bear . Along with the likes of Andy Henry , Tommy Torley is one of the group 's regulars , whose skills in carpentry , construction , and basically making something out of nothing , are matched only by their willingness to pass them on to others . It 's not hard to see why the project 's 20 or so members reappear every week at the centre to sculpt mud kitchens and mend broken pool tables . It 's right there , in the encouraging words from the helpers , the moments shared as tea breaks , and in the ethic that drives everyone back to work afterwards . The Handy Folk allows people another opportunity to be useful -- and is n't that how we really all want to feel ? Since my desire to feel useful runs shallower than most , I followed Tommy around as he collected tools for our shared task -- @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ As we carried a circular saw towards the work station , Tommy told me of his varied career and how life had brought him back round to woodwork . A fellow first-timer , Geraldine Robinson , joined me at the beginners ' bench to learn exactly how that one piece of uninspiring wood sitting before us would become anything more than splinters in our amateur fingers . Tommy , however , had every confidence and , once I realised that my most valuable quality could actually be used in the process , I nabbed a little back for myself . You see , I have an uncanny knack of being able to stand beside someone who knows what they 're doing . And , as I hitched my star to Geraldine 's wagon , it seemed like the fairy glen might just clock up some cuckoos , after all . She could set a square , drive a screw , and knew a jig when she saw one . Together with my readiness to nod sagely at the appropriate time , a fine skill-set was formed . With @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ life , I held a saw to its edge , as gingerly as a red-head at an Irn-Bru-tasting , bearing in mind the advice Tommy had given on the breadth of stroke and depth of pressure . The wood was damp , making it more difficult to cut but , before long , our timber was in more pieces than my nerves and ready to be Humpty-Dumptied back together . All around , fairy doors and bug hotels were being expertly conjured into existence , while at our table the drill was out and I was being treated to a masterclass in assembly . I ca n't really explain the pride I felt as our birdhouse took shape . It was n't quite the carpenter 's cup , but at least it could leave the building without causing structural damage . And though every individual panel and screw had been carefully cut and turned by our will and work , it was the overall that really touched me . And no , I 'm not referring to the blue workman 's onesie that Tommy had kindly loaned me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , I had helped create something of use : a home , no less . And whether that home is used by the birds in the trees or the fairies of the forest , I 'm proud to have put my heart into it .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It also does not exhibit either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, which are key characteristics of the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'built ourselves up out of nothing' does not fit the construction's criteria as it lacks the necessary VP2[-ing] predicate and does not involve a causee in the context of the construction.

I 've been inspired by research that suggests knowing the intimate facts of our family histories makes us more healthy emotionally ' " You were a waitress and not very good at it , " says my son when asked about the jobs I have had ' ... Rebecca Hardy with her children , Felix , Phoebe and Alice . Photograph : Christian Sinibaldi for the Guardian One day , my youngest daughter announced she was a Chelsea fan . It was a difficult day for her father , a life-long Man United supporter . " You ca n't do that , " he whispered , his face ashen . " She was born in London , " I said , cheerily . " She can support what football team she likes . " As someone with a modicum of intelligence -- who can tell the difference between a football match , and , say , a mass global catastrophe ( I make the distinction as there seems to be some confusion in our house ) -- I was n't concerned , but it did get @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ many people , we are raising our kids away from " home turf " . Their father and I hail from the north . Most of our family are dotted around Manchester , but as we have been living in London for more than 20 years , our kids are southerners , which , from a northern perspective , is a little like admitting you eat babies for breakfast . Does it matter ? Would our children benefit from being more in touch with their roots ? In truth , the notion of family has never had much truck with me . Whenever I hear people say , " It 's family , " I get a flash image of Phil Mitchell , usually wielding a baseball bat . I was pondering this when I came across research showing that children who have a strong " family narrative " enjoy better emotional health . Much of this work is from the late 90s , when psychologists Marshall Duke and Robyn Fivush of Emory University in Atlanta , Georgia , asked 48 families 20 questions about their family history @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the stronger their sense of control over their lives , the higher their self-esteem and the more successfully they believed their families functioned . " Hearing these stories gave the children a sense of their history and a strong ' intergenerational self ' . Even if they were only nine , their identity stretched back 100 years , giving them connection , strength and resilience , " he said . I 'm all for those qualities , so I decide to give the questions a whirl . To my surprise , they sail through the first ( " do you know where your parents grew up ? " ) but are less clear about their grandparents . They all immediately jump on my mother 's bucket-and-spade childhood in Devon , which I strongly suspect is because ice-cream is involved , and then we 're on to : " Do you know how your parents met ? " This turns out to be another easy win . " University , " they all trump , although one of them -- I 'm not saying who -- has a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ crowded bar and it was love at first sight . Then someone introduced you and you fell madly in love . " " Does it matter if some of the answers are slightly , well , exaggerated ? " I ask Duke , later . " No , " he says . " The exact questions and answers do n't matter . They 're more to show a process has taken place , that of sharing the stories , and that the children feel they have a story to tell . " So I press on . " Do you know the source of your name ? " But they are stumped by their grandparents ' first meeting . My in-laws , I say , met at a dance in Bolton , though my mother-in-law says she wishes she had gone for " the man with the car " instead . Meanwhile , my parents met on a CND rally . My mum was asking her friend what she had for breakfast and my dad interrupted : " Do n't talk to me about breakfast ! " and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Then comes : " Do you know what went on when you ( and your siblings ) were born ? " The twins quibble about who came first and then my eldest , who was a toddler at the time , chips in : " I wanted to name the twins Koko and Brewster after the trains in Chuggington , but I called them ' the pink baby ' and ' the blue baby ' instead . " I am just beginning to congratulate myself on a job well done ( those long hours boring them must have finally paid off ) , when things turn embarrassing . " Do you know some of the jobs your parents had when they were young ? " My son quickly recalls Daddy 's newspaper round on his bike , which I think he imagines like the last scene in ET , but my eldest pipes up : " You were a waitress and not very good at it . You kept spilling the tea . " ( True . ) " You served garlic butter instead of mayonnaise . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the cream teas in the kitchen . " ( No comment . ) " And when you worked in a pub , you had a blazing row with the sous chef because they had none of the dishes on the menu , which everyone in the bar could overhear . " I 'm reeling from the fact that I have told her this ( seriously ? I told her the teen stuff ? Had n't I resolved never to do this ? ) but then I think , do they really need to know this kind of thing ? According to Duke , they do . Even though my teen stories are ridiculous , they feed into the idea that it 's important to let children hear about relatives overcoming difficulty . " Families often shield children from the truth but negative stories can be even more important than positive ones for fostering emotional resilience , " he says . I am pleased my son knows his great-grandad was a miner , that my daughters know their great-great auntie was in service He is right @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : the ascending one ( " We built ourselves up out of nothing " ) ; the descending one ( " We lost it all " ) , or -- the most successful -- the oscillatory one ( " We have had our share of ups and downs " ) . I grew up hearing stories like the latter : how my grandparents ' house was bombed in the war ; how my grandma saw her husband die of a heart attack in the pulpit , while she sat in the congregation with her 15-year-old son ; how my great-grandfather-in-law was killed in the first world war , leaving his wife and two young children behind . I am pleased to learn that the children remember these stories ; that my son knows his great-grandad was a coal miner and sent down the pit at 14 , that my daughters know their great-great-auntie went into service when she was a teen ; and I realise we 're in a whole new unlikely scenario where Downton Abbey is suddenly social realism . " We all feel stronger if we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , a family therapist . " One thread alone is weak , but , woven into something larger , surrounded by other threads , it is more difficult to unravel . " Duke makes the point that discussing family dramas can fuel parent and adolescent interaction when the age of the bedtime story has passed . " And these stories do good even when the person is dead , we continue to learn from them . " That 's a sobering thought ; that the stories stay with our kids , long after we are gone . Even if they do grow up to be Chelsea fans . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'out of presenting' does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'out of presenting' seems to indicate a temporal aspect of taking time away from presenting, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence 'people who do not have expendable cash are being priced out of keeping fit' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Here, 'people who do not have expendable cash' is the NP object, 'are being priced' is the V1 in passive voice, and 'keeping fit' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. The interpretation is prevention, as the high prices are preventing people from keeping fit. This aligns with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Bryan Leask , chairman of the Shetland Recreational Trust ( SRT ) was quick , however , to point out that where other leisure schemes have been subsidised by local councils the SRT does not receive any support from the SIC . Under SRT 's pricing structure an individual " Gold " membership , which grants access to the gym , swimming and health suite facilities at the Clickimin , will set you back ? 59.50 per month or ? 606 a year . A family in the Western Isles , on the other hand , would pay half of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sl ? inte Mhath ' or ' Good Health ' scheme any parent or couple with children under 18 living at the same address can purchase a family subscription for just ? 25 a month , according to figures available online . Over the course of the year this equates to ? 300 , half of the price for just one individual in Shetland . Considering the further costs incurred by a family , with two partners and their children all using facilities regularly , the figure forked out locally could soar to over ? 1000 more each year . In Orkney , a scheme similar to the Western Isles is to be launched next week , entitled ' ActiveLife ' . The two-year pilot is the result of a partnership between the Orkney Islands Council ( OIC ) and the Pickaquoy Centre Trust . Cardholders are to be given access to 12 facilities across Orkney and will be able to swim , climb , use gym and health suite facilities and play racket sports , among other things . An ActiveLife family membership is cheaper than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? 29.50 per month . Mrs Williamson first became aware of the discrepancy when Jerry Gibson , a friend from Orkney now living in Shetland , shared a post on Facebook detailing the costings soon to be introduced in Orkney . After researching other council areas Mrs Williamson realised she was paying " a colossal amount more " to keep fit than a family in Orkney , the Western Isles or the Highlands . The difference an active Shetlander pays is equivalent , she says , to two family trips on the ferry each year . But Mr Leask defended the SRT 's pricing in a written statement provided to this paper . He said : " As I understand it , the other schemes highlighted are actively subsidised by their respective councils . SRT does not receive any subsidy funding from Shetland Islands Council ... " SRT essentially has two sources of income : the majority of which is by way of a grant from the Shetland Charitable Trust , who are reducing the level of subsidy by 25 per cent by 2020 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " After compiling her findings Mrs Williamson sent a letter to the recreational trust and councillors . It was not only the cost which concerned her but a feeling that the pricing would discourage people from taking up sport in Shetland . " We 're not going to do well internationally , or even nationally , for yun prices " she said . When asked if she thought Shetlanders were being asked to foot the bill for upkeep on the extensive provision of leisure centres around the isles Mrs Williamson said " I think that does factor into it . " This concern is alluded to in the statement provided by Mr Leask , who writes : " As well as owning and operating Clickimin Leisure Centre Complex , we own and operate seven rural leisure centres . " SRT have full management and maintenance responsibilities for these facilities and must generate sufficient income to remain viable . " Mrs Gibson , originally of Rousay , Orkney but now living in Kalliness , went further by saying that the prices were " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that people who do not have expendable cash are being priced out of keeping fit . It was Mrs Gibson 's view that the SRT should look at introducing a family subscription similar to those offered in Orkney and the Western Isles . She said : " Shetland has excellent facilities . I 'd like to see more people using them but not everyone has that luxury because of the cost . " Both Mrs Williamson and Mrs Gibson were keen to point out that they have nothing against the facilities , service or staff in Shetland , referring to them as " lovely " and " fantastic " respectively . Discussing the ' ActiveLife ' scheme soon to be launched in Orkney a spokesperson for the OIC said : " Similar schemes introduced in the Highlands , Western Isles and Moray local council areas have seen increased uptakes in memberships at leisure facilities .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate.

In a separate development on Saturday , African American Broadway star Jennifer Holliday pulled out of performing at the inauguration after pressure from followers , many of them from the LGBT community . Holliday , who has sung for both Republican and Democrat presidents , apologised for her " lapse of judgement " and said she did not realise her participation would be seen as expressing support for Mr Trump . Media captionJohn Lewis is the last surviving speaker from the 1963 March on Washington Mr Lewis , a Democrat , said on Friday he would not attend the inauguration on the grounds that he did not see the Republican as a legitimate president . " I think the Russians participated in helping this man get elected , " he told NBC 's Meet the Press . " And they helped destroy the candidacy of Democrat Hillary Clinton .

California Senator Kamala Harris , a Democrat , said it was wrong to treat him in this way . " John Lewis is an icon of the Civil Rights Movement who is fearless in the pursuit of justice and equality , " she tweeted . " He deserves better than this .

Jennifer Holliday has become the latest artist to pull out of performing at a Donald Trump inauguration event , with the singer also apologising to the LGBT community in an open letter for agreeing to perform . The Broadway singer and recording artist was among the few acts to confirm that they had accepted an invitation to play at one of the events being held around the President-elect 's inauguration in Washington D.C. , which will take place on Friday ( January 20 ) . Holliday was booked to perform at an event being held in the capital city a day before Trump 's inauguration outside the Capitol Building . Despite yesterday defending her decision to perform at the event even after she received a backlash from fans -- she told Billboard that she 'd be performing for " the people of the US " rather than Trump -- Holliday has now reversed her decision entirely . Getty The 56-year-old Texan has published an open letter explaining that she has now pulled out of the performance , while also @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ honestly just thinking that I wanted my voice to be a healing and unifying force for hope through music to help our deeply polarised country , " Holliday wrote . " Regretfully , I did not take into consideration that my performing for the concert would actually instead be taken as a political act against my own personal beliefs and be mistaken for support of Donald Trump and Mike Pence . " In light of the information pointed out to me via the Daily Beast article on yesterday , my only choice must now be to stand with the LGBT Community and to state unequivocally that I WILL NOT PERFORM FOR THE WELCOME CONCERT OR FOR ANY OF THE INAUGURATION FESTIVITIES ! Holliday -- who has previously sung at the inaugurations of Ronald Reagan , Bill Clinton , and George W. Bush -- " sincerely apologised " for her " lapse of judgement , and being uneducated on the issues that affect every American at this crucial time in history , and for causing such dismay and heartbreak to my fans .

Let 's talk running . Wait , please come back . This time three years ago I bought a nice polyester T-shirt , laced up a crusty pair of trainers , started with tiny little five-minute jogs and worked up to 5K , 10K , half marathons and then the full marathon . The latter saw three of my toenails fall off and at one point was so painful it introduced me to the rare phenomenon of crying whilst moving . I am 30 , which if my friends group is anything to go by , seems to be the exact point in life us SEGA-addled kids collectively decide they definitely , absolutely must go and sign up to the London Marathon , a goal which proved even more motivating to my health than recalling the YouTube comments during my tenure as the fat one off GameSpot . ' Reminds you of that fat kid at school whose face you just want to punch ' - Anonymous Internet Commenter , 2013 . Maybe the kids who grew up with the PlayStation 2 will have a completely different generational @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who spent childhood guiding a hedgehog around the world now seeks a similar sense of onward progression , although it 's a crying shame Hyde Park does n't have a loop-the-loop in sight . But I 've found the objective-based structures of gaming in general translate particularly well to training for those famous distances - just a a few more speedwork sessions and you 'll level up dexterity ! It 's no surprise to see various developers seeking to harness all this in , you know , actual games . The most famous example here , outside of overly keen Pokemon Go players , is probably Zombies , Run ! , essentially an audiobook metered out as you log mileage . There are more than a few hokey touches here , but it 's a very likable story - and you 've got to hand it to them for the amount of ways they narratively justify the need for you , the mute protagonist known as Runner 5 , to run . On the other end of my scale : Burn your fat with me ! ! , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ becomes more enamored with you as you get better at sit-ups . I ca n't tell you if the story ends with actual love , because I only bought the first chunk of the game while riding the night bus home after a heavy night and refuse to buy subsequent chapters because it 's rubbish . Still , I hope there 's at least one person out there who 's carved out a set of Cristiano Ronaldo abs off the back of it . Most recent to the plate is Run an Empire , which just opened a second round of crowdfunding and is looking to launch globally in 2017 . Perfectly placed for the onslaught of boxfresh trainers about to grace pavements in January , here you 'll be turning in mileage to ' own ' real-world areas , which is sadly the closest most of us will get to the property ladder these days . Regardless of which running game you pick up , you tend to end up in a similar place . My main haunt these days - and you 'll become intimately familiar @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is Tooting Bec Commons . This little patch of ragged greenery in southwest London is poorly lit , cold and unwelcoming in the winter . In the summer it 's rammed full of roaming picnickers and mothers who treat their baby-stuffed prams with reckless disregard . This is my land and I , sadly , am its king . It 's easy to see the potential appeal : Strava 's high-score leaderboards have been encouraging middle-aged cyclists to splat into the back of lorries for years now , so applying a similar idea ( running loops both quickly and regularly ) to an app makes sense . As someone who easily falls down the breadcrumb progression trail of virtually any multiplayer shooter , take it from me when I say it 's all too easy to gobble up this all-you-can-eat buffet of perceived progression . Give me a whiff of a shiny bauble on a virtual trophy cabinet and I 'll stay up until 3am repeating the same task endlessly for it . Yet I find it hard to get attached here . The idea might be to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Case in point : 23:47. 47:19. 1:50:54 , 4:50:18 . These numbers , my current personal bests for the 5k , 10k , half and full marathons , scroll through my memory like high scores from a 90s arcade cabinet . They 've become my personal mental screensaver . Bettering them fuels the lacing up of trainers on a cold winter morning or bracing myself for a baking hot lunchtime lap in summer . 47:19 and 55:08 . We both felt like champions . Your numbers might be a lot better ; if you 've never run a day in your life you might think they 're quite impressive . Like many things I 've discovered about adult life , it 's a case of perspective . What 's important is that they 're my times , and each one is the product of a lot of work . Beating those numbers , or just maintaining them , has become the game . Some of my niggles with Run an Empire are similarly fundamental . It basically demands you run in a circular loop , for instance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a time , hindering any acknowledgement of progressing in distance training - I wanted to use the app to train for a half-marathon but could n't . Neither of these are a big deal until they are . I could natter on about other , basic technical failings , like the various instances it 's deleted my run because it suspects I 'm cheating ( which I take as a compliment ) , or the lack of integration with Strava and Runkeeper - the totemic holy grails of the hobby - but I 'd forgive a lot of that if I was more hooked by the premise . Run an Empire does n't complement the hobby of running , then , but running does n't particularly enhance the mechanics behind Run an Empire 's feudalistic ambition either - there 's no real sense of the ownership you 'd get with , say , a game of Civilization or Clash of Clans . You 'd be better off separating your two hobbies , darting around the park and then coming back to give Gandhi a good kicking . My @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ go walking , running , cycling etc. on their terms , but to me running at least has never worked that way . A lot of people tend to waffle on about a jog like it 's some kind of meditative act , which is partially true ; other common states are pain , hunger , and the frustration of really needing to poop when you 're thirty minutes away from the nearest toilet . When I 'm stuck up against a mental wall , which is something generally triggered by exertion , boredom or repetition , I have to retreat deep into my head instead of my phone . When I think about Pokemon Go , it felt like such a summery success ( and no , I do n't play it any more either ) because it helped people get outside and see more of the area around them , a canny little pairing of walking and the game 's mechanics . Running moves in broader strokes - you tend to appreciate the breadth of the park rather than the stories behind its benches , and I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , say , hexagonal squares over a street map . I 've yet to find a running game which fuses itself with the rituals and the habits it 's trying to supplement , but it probably says something about me that I keep looking . The other main argument behind most running apps is that they help promote a social scene - leaderboards , friendly competition , camaraderie and so forth . I can see that : running is as social or antisocial as you need it to be . I always do my long runs solo , but over the past couple of months I 've been running in the evenings with one of my best friends - we 've been training to get our 5K times back under 30 minutes after , in my instance , months of inactivity and alcoholic excess . We jog around St James ' Park and catch up , talking about everything going on in our lives and slowly appreciating the week-by-week improvement , that gradual , unfolding realization that the laps of the park are coming in faster and faster . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to find in a leaderboard , and when it comes to times , well , that 's what the races are for . It 's hard for me imagine a world where any of these running apps are the answer to why somebody is running . Running is an awful , grueling slog the narrative of our society unfairly romanticizes , but also a wonderful act which helps suppress the gremlins roaming around my mind telling me I 'll never be able to do , well , anything . Running has helped turned the world into an adventure playground , my personal Green Hill Zone asking to be looped , climbed and leapt through , and that 's far more interesting to me than being the ruler of any transient hexagonal kingdom .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'get the heck out of being the owner', which does not involve a transitive verb with an NP object and a VP2[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of being the owner' is more about exiting a state rather than the transitive out of -ing construction.

Kirk Broadfoot wrestles Norwich City striker Nelson Oliveira to the ground in the incident that saw Oliveira sent off . Picture by Paul Chesterton/Focus Images Ltd The words ' knee ' and ' jerk ' are no longer charges that can be levelled to assess a diabolical campaign now beyond the halfway point . Alex Neil looks beaten . The Scot does not deserve the abuse or the anger routinely directed at him . He is a failing football manager who brought the good times back to Carrow Road on a magical carpet ride that culminated in Wembley success . For that he merits gratitude and thanks . Neil 's work this season has been graded , voted on , and forensically dissected by all and sundry . Now the time has come to measure him by his own words . In the midst of that prolonged spiral prior to Christmas came an emphatic 5-0 Championship home win over Brentford . Alex Pritchard finally looked like a player who had arrived at great expense . Nelson Oliveira was irresistible . Robbie Brady did a passable impression of a footballer coveted by Premier League suitors . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The penny had dropped . The arrogance and complacency had been checked . Ahead of his impending two-year anniversary , Neil confidently predicted City would be in a much healthier situation than the one he inherited from Neil Adams . They are not . They are far worse off -- both in league position and outlook . City were on the periphery of the play-offs when the Scot arrived from Hamilton . Now they are eight points behind sixth-placed Sheffield Wednesday . They leak goals and attract red cards in masochistic fashion . There is another pertinent parallel . When Lewis Grabban was red-carded in the first-half of a Championship trip to Rotherham in April 2015 , Neil 's storm troopers hit back to earn a point . The defiance , the energy , the hunger was stamped right through that performance and that side . It was a team cast in Neil 's image ; bullish , self-confident , physically and mentally strong . Tom Adeyemi was Rotherham 's match-winner against old club Norwich City . Picture by Paul Chesterton/Focus Images Ltd When @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Kirk Broadfoot , Norwich faced the same dilemma . City did respond and were full value for Cameron Jerome 's equaliser . The script was written . Either hold on for a battling draw or complete an epic , against-the-odds win -- much in the manner they prevailed at Bournemouth in Neil 's debut -- and that nascent new year revival had indeed gathered pace . This was not QPR or Burnley or Huddersfield or Reading . Except it was . City were exposed when Tom Adeyemi rose with menacing intent in front of Steven Whittaker . Norwich edged forward as the minutes ticked by but the conviction was lacking . Just like the attitude in the defining moments at the start . The thirst for change is now unquenchable while Neil remains in his post . But a new manager will not halt the decline . City 's squad needs a major overhaul . A short term uplift , maybe even a belated play-off push , would not disguise we are witnessing the sad , final throes of a thrilling era . Perhaps it is fitting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . He was the architect of that great leap forward from the depths of League One . Norwich may have slipped back twice since but the burning expectation lingers from the glorious ascent engineered by Lambert and a set of players who refused to accept they were inferior as they climbed the ladder at speed . Now too many in this squad feel they are better than the Championship . The reality is they are unwilling or unable to grasp the physical price required each and every gruelling week at this level to be a success . They struggle to combat the intensity , the energy , the youthful disrespect shown to former Premier League players . There is a tiredness , a hopelessness and a drift which brief spikes in results can no longer mask . It really grinds my gears ! ! Other teams in the Championship and indeed League 1 have sacked their manager after a poor run of results . Nottingham Forrest and Northampton Town being two who have done that . So we look at the Championship and we see Norwich City floundering around @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lost the plot and ca n't seem to find it . The players are clearly peed off so it appears they 're not remotely interested in playing football . So what do our board do ? Bury their heads in the sand and pretend nothing has happened . Oh and freeze the season tickets again for another year because of course that 'll placate the fans . No it wo n't ! ! It 'll make them angrier . Sack AN now clear out all the players who no longer wish to play for Norwich and let 's face it there are loads . Bring in players who want to play , but here lies the problem who 'd want to come here ? Certainly not going up this year and looking and playing like we are it 'll be another 10 years before we do again . We need to put the club for sale and try to attract the right investors . Thank you Delia and Michael you 've done us proud but it is time to move on . Being prudent and living within our means is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ me wrong I like the fact as a club Norwich is debt free but there are times , like now when we need to spend . Sadly I can not see anything changing any time soon . The club is rapidly turning into a team of mediocrity and it 's the fans who 'll pay the price . AN has wasted huge amounts of money in the summer buying lightweight midfielders when it was clear to everyone we needed strengthening at centre back and a decent goalscorer . On Saturday he played Wes and Naismith together , which is as good as fielding nine men because Naismith is content to play one yard one-twos in a congested midfield , getting us into trouble all too often . We can not play tikka-takki football because we do n't have the technical skills - it involves being able to move and manipulate the ball accurately and quickly in tight spaces . Meanwhile our defence simply can not cope with high crosses and lack of pace exposes us as well . Just watch how many times some of our defenders get left @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ continues to rely on players who have patently failed rather than bring on some youngsters who at least would show desire , commitment and also have some pace . This is part of his one-dimensional approach to the game . We need someone with the courage and conviction to do what numerous EPL sides are doing with great success - giving youth a chance . We have them . AN just wo n't commit to using them . I could n't have put it better myself Paddy . My thoughts exactly . However , there 's no hint or even a warning from those at the top that if things do n't improve , changes will have to be made , so it is a disaster waiting to happen and an absolute shambles . Have to agree with Paddy that this is the end of an era at Carrow Road . The end of any ambition . The end of hope . The end of any common sense . No other Manager at any other Club would still be in a job after the performances of the last @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , from a football standpoint nor from a business position . The Owners are prepared to stand by in inaction while their investment in the Club is destroyed . All the time alienating the Supporters who are the lifeblood of the Club ! Extraordinary , and complete madness . We do n't have to ' reek of failure ' . It sounds like Swansea might loans us their spare left back for the rest of the season . But what can we do with what we have ? If Brady stays then we can play 3 centre backs with wing-backs - like a lot of the PL teams . Bassong Klose and Bennet as a back three with Brady and Pinto. and Tettey in front . Three of our attacking mid grand stable and a goal scorer . I would put Lafferty ahead of Jerome in the finishing stakes and still want to start him ahead of Jerome ( until Nelson is back ) . Not taking our chances ( or changing the striker ) is what started the slow death off several months ago . There is still @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ approach and maybe some fresh eyes needed . TrevorKeith , I 'm not disagreeing with you but I am a bit surprised that you do n't think AN understands English football . Much of his playing career was in England , so he should understand it ! Managing a club like Hamilton should have taught him some lessons in how to get a team to punch above its weight ( not literally , in light of Oliveira 's red card ) . It 's plain to see that it 's over and a new manager is required , plus a more competent board . It seems to me that AN simply does not understand English football and its requirements as he has spent so much money on players that simply do not suit the only formation he seems to want to play . It he insists on playing wing backs then we either need to play three centre backs or purchase fleet footed centre backs . Neither Klose , Bennett , Martin , Bassong or indeed Turner fits that bill and hence we constantly concede goals to quick @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to sell off our two decent left sided players that can actually play his formation without having a single player at the club to fill the hole . Step in Whittaker , who looks completely out of his depth far too often on the right let alone left . Perhaps we should try him in goal next Saturday , that may fool Lambert or get his players laughing so much they will struggle to hit too many past us . I am sure our board will see a narrow 3 nil defeat as some sort of success . If only it was the end of an Era , perhaps that actually happened at the end of last season when McNally left but it has taken the press and the fans until now to realise this . Trying to read between the lines , I wonder in AN actually resigned at the end of last season but was talked out of it by the owners and the new Chairman . This could certainly explain why McNally threw the dummy out of the pram and left and is the only plausible @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ increased contact together with a guaranteed pay off . Hence we are in cloud cuckoo land whereby the board are unwilling to sack the man now we have come off the rails . Brewer . I would guess the exact opposite . That he was delighted when the last effective obstacle to his generous exit package had been removed . Hughton did n't perform at NCFC . Agree your comments ' re Adams but I suspect others made that decision and AN was McNally s solution therefore I would score him 1.5 out of 4 at best and expensive at the price albeit that admittedly he was robust . Been a while since I ventured onto these pages but have to agree with Mad Brewer that a fan club for Paddy Davitt is merited . Would love to see some writing of that quality in the rest of the Archant portfolio , namely the EADT . Before you make rude comments it should be remembered that the subject matter does not have to be great for the writing and journalism to be of good quality . How strange @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of NCFC over ITFC the comments from both sets of supporters are remarkably similar . Manager out , owner out , more transfer spending , poor team selection , relegation awaits , etc. etc . Perhaps we should all save our match fees and meet up as a literary club to discuss and cheer Paddys pieces . I wonder if Macca felt all alone when his ( only ) fellow professional , Alan " Hyacinth " Bowkett , quit ? A professional the likes of McNally would stick out like a sore thumb amid this Board of self-interested dilettantes . Ditto , @essex canary . Though , in defence of Don Davito Machianalli , and to paraphrase Meat Loaf .. " Three out of 4 ai n't bad " .. ( Assuming one believes Neil Adams was n't that bad ! ) .. Also , Hughton 's doing OK at Brighton . Hughton also did OK at Brum & Toon . It 's " The Norwich Effect " . Anyway , can we be sure that Macca had that much power when Alex was conjured up out of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ - the one in the opposition dugout this coming Saturday . Paul Lambert with support from Alan Bowkett and Grant Holt are just about the only reasons we are still afloat . Those who truely achieve at Norwich City get no real credit . " End of an era " ? I do n't think so . End of a chapter maybe , but one which we 've read before . Paddy knows as well as we do that a new era means new ownership not a new manager . I share JimBob 's frustration at fans who vent their fury but still turn up at CR week in week out . The club would like us to think that gate receipts do n't matter much . Do n't you believe it . It 's not just the money of course but the size of the gate , which has a knock on effect on sponsorship and the image of the club in general . The club 's cringing apology after the Southampton no-show tells its own story , however much it is dressed up as ' doing the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . . . . . . . . Like JimBob I 'm increasingly frustrated by fans who are all talk and no action . Sack AN as the ST renewals go out , and watch them flood in . Same old , same old . The owners of the club are second to none in one respect - their ability to work a crowd : hardly surprising since they 're media people and it 's their stock in trade . Have you any idea how much you 're being manipulated ? I know it 's a desperate step to take , but desperation is where we are . Sacking AN by itself will solve absolutely nothing . If you 're not part of the solution then you 're part of the problem . " Now too many in this squad feel they are better than the Championship . " , well said Paddy and that 's exactly how it looked for the first 35 minutes of the game . There are many aspects to managing people , some need nurturing , some need a quiet word and some need @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all and they 're obviously not working . AN , you ca n't hack the pace , be off with you . Momentum and confidence are everything and a good management provides the platform for this . Canos and Pritchard starred in a Brentford side because the team dynamic worked . Our side have none of the required passion , enthusiasm and commitment required for any players to excel . Wish people would stop saying players have n't worked . ( Canos Pritchard Josh Toffolo etc .... ) they simply have n't had a suitable environment to work in . They 've proved they 're good enough and can be very good players for us . Perhaps when we do eventually get a new manager he will have a brief to go with the youngsters , build a team and make the place vibrant again . We are a long way from it now but need to keep all our young players with potential including Canos . Evidently AN can not see this . Trevor Sadd ... I am not sure why you would call Olsson a nomad @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ only had two clubs ... and as for Brady , he has had only two clubs for whom he has played in his six year adult career . I am not sure if you are aware of what the word ' nomad ' actually means , or if indeed you know what you are talking about . By the way - atrocious grammar to compound the problem . Well said Wacor. we have gone full circle and not for the first . the senile cook and her kitchen assistants have learned nothing . Even when we had two excellent businessmen in the building namely Bowkett and McNally they dug the club and Delia investments out of the mire and set us up for some exciting times . Still the lessons , hardly have been taken heed of , only that sticks out to me is that she is terrified to let the club get into debt . But how much of that worry is down to worrying about her money is debatable . If she is really that scared she should get the heck out of being the owner @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the modern game . It is a lonely road that hardly anyone thinks about these days . There will never be anything different at our club until the policies are changed from the top or new owners are allowed to take the reigns . We will continue to go round in giant circles . they are the only corners that will be turned ... PS , on youngsters ; Bamideli Alli was a MK Dons 1st Team regular ( L1 ) at 17 years of age and a Spurs regular at 19 . He 's not 21 until April this year . Not a bad player . Spurs soon got him " up to speed ... " . I 'm going to start a Paddy Davitt Fan Club ! Good bit of writing , PD . Though I totally agree with @waclor about McNally 's pivotal role in rescuing the club from potentially terminal decline , largely caused by abjectly awful selection of managers - specially the hapless Gunn . I wonder if Machianalli was behind Alex 's appointment , then came to regret it ? Any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ setting up a Paddy Davitt Appreciation Society ( PADAS ) .. ! ! ? Time is long overdue for a " Hard Alexit " . C'm on , Alas Smiths & Jones - it 's only ? 2m . Write a cookbook or something . Or a book about cooking books ? Mary Berry for Chairperson ! ! Lincs too , if these players were too good to play in the Championship , Norwich would still be in the Premiership , and would not be losing to a side as poor as Rotherham . Malaga , you make a valid point about Everton playing teenagers and a 20 year-old ; not only that , Everton were playing Manchester City- one of the best sides in the division . Reading the articles and the comments , what 's struck me is that no one seems particularly surprised about losing to Rotherham . FOr a side supposedly going for " promotion , promotion , promotion " , a draw at Rotherham should have been regarded as a bad result . Tom Smith used to make crackers in our fine city @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ decisions and , I 'm afraid , will continue to do so as they have set their stall out in The Times and are so stubborn that they will never admit they might just have got it wrong . Sad days indeed ! Yes Paddy is right we are in turmoil and there seems no solution , but calling for all these team changes and to bring in the youngsters is not going to solve the problem.Has Murphy really set the Championship alight , his brother , by all accounts is not as good , Canos has nt really showed the ability that would change a game , Pritchard , whilst a very good player has only really had one good game when he has played , Maddison , good on the ball but very poor off it and a drama queen and even Lafferty , although touted by many supporters as the answer has quite frankly been very poor . Klose has come in and gained the admiration of many fans but has he been that good , he is after all part of the very problem that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to many goals.Of the othes , Morris , Godfrey , Thompson , are quite honestly unknown quality.Of course it would be great if they were the answer to all the clubs problems but it seems that the problem is far more seated than the players inability to perform on the pitch.Individually they are no doubt gifted but collectively it just does nt seem to be happening.As a supporter I have given up on wanting Championship success and the promise of the Premiership.Give me a team that entertains me and gives me that feel good factor on a Saturday night.This season has been all about whether or when the likes of Ollson , Brady or Klose are going to leave.I am not interested in these football nomads , while I acknowledge their ability and what they bring to the club , I just want to enjoy my football and unfortunately , I am not A really good article . The team needs a complete overhaul and , from what we see , that is n't going to happen under AN . He has not spent money wisely and personally I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bring in more players . The Board also needs a strong guiding hand who understands football and can communicate with the fans . Can Delia and family recognise that Moxey is n't that man and go out and find the next McNally ? If they do n't wish to remain the captain and crew of a rapidly sinking ship then they need to restructure now . Great piece . Paddy .. at least a couple of writer in the media that go to games and see what we see . But this is n't something new it has been the same old story for years and years . at the end of the day it is all about money . I found this the other day and thought it could have been written today **42;169;TOOLONG ... Another brill piece Paddy so balanced . Our problems are that Delia and Michael have run their course , just like many things they all have a shelf life . AN does not see the same picture , he is pretty honest but arrogant , he brings in people like Pritchard but then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ been given the chance either , he sends Maddison to Aberdeen where the boy starred in quite a few of his games then he comes back to Norwich and he plays in the development squad , AN treats Lafferty with contempt and then when we lose all we hear is Martin come out and say the fight is not there , we let the fans down , performance is not good enough , yet nobody is held accountable . Now we have to sell Olsson to buy someone , yet Toffolo looks a good lad when he is given the chance , Thompson should be back soon so at least Tettey ( reminds me of Gary Holt , does a lot of running but little to show apart from bookings ) there is some new blood coming in , shocking waste of some really good players , do n't forget , AN took us on a great journey , Wembley is still in the mind as a great day but events are quickly overtaking them . AN time to go . Paddy you missed the main point - Mr @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ offered a new contract to a useless Scottish manager who had got us relegated . It took him one match to see where that was going and he took the correct course of action . We are close to where we were when he arrived and the old cook has learnt nothing from his tenure . Spanish CJ - yes quite right . Everton 's conviction with its youngsters is not alone . A number of other top EPL clubs do the same . I doubt any of the youngsters now showing their talents in the top league would even get a chance at Norwich . Apart from the likes of Maddison , Toffolo , Godfrey and Morris , AN spent a fortune on Pritchard from Spurs but he has n't been considered as a regular starter , instead being confined to the sidelines for much of his time here . This lack of conviction and dynamism is symptomatic of the club as a whole . Perhaps the Board is happy with AN because he eschews their seeming values ; conservative and change-adverse . as usual Paddy ... @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Board have the ability to recognise the problem , the wisdom to understand what must be done and the intestinal fortitude to bloody well do it . The manager is not imbibing the players with fight and tenacity . They look beaten and going through the motions . We need to see Maddison , Godfrey , Toffolo ( if he can be brought back ) , Morris and a fit Louis Thompson all given the opportunity to show what they can do and lets sell those that really appear not to want to be here any more ... although to some extent the reasons for this can be understood . The ship is sinking so why not desert it ? Malaga Flyer you read my mind ! Watched MOTD 2 with envy as teenagers are trusted by their Managers to show pride , this week 's not a one off . Week after week youngsters are playing in the Premier League , yet our young talent is either on loan somewhere or restricted to playing in the under what evers ! This will only change when the Manager is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are too good for the Champ they are delusional . Only two are in demand and in each case by struggling premium clubs and Brady could even end up at another Champ club . As for Neil he needs replacing but that is more complex than it seems . Managers like Bruce and Allardyce when available would have wanted to know what budget was there to spend . Sell and buy would not have been good enough . Indeed the only experienced manager I could see coming here is Hodgson because he is a chum or one who has been out of the game too long . The dilemma facing the owners is the rollercoaster has come off the rails because they can not afford the maintenance or to change the driver . And once the customers realise this they will stop buying their season tickets It is obvious that the squad do not even care about their own professional performances and this disregard to the basic integrity of a player 's occupation can only come from a lack of leadership from the Manager . He does have to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ may still struggle with some of this squad I firmly believe that the change of leadership is the best way forward . A new set of ideas to replace Alex Neil 's tired approach would be the start of that revival . Yesterday Everton played two teenagers and a 20 year old and thanks in no small part to them beat Man City 4-0 . If Everton can blood youngsters in the EPL why on earth ca n't we do so in a lower league ? We lack the vision and courage to do so , that is why . AN has a team whose core looks down and defeated as soon as it gets on the pitch . It is crying out for change . It could have been AN 's last roll of the dice but he has n't taken it . Instead he keeps selecting the same combinations , the same slow , off the pace and under-performing players . Not bringing in the likes of Toffolo and Maddison shows how much AN will not embrace change in any meaningful way . Timidity at this time @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bullish , positive , leadership from the top down . But it is not there . We are rudderless , impotent both on and off the pitch . We have a CEO who feels it is sufficient to make a statement to the fans via a controlled internally generated piece of stage-managed rhetoric . That in itself it just an indication of how far apart those who run the club are now from their fan base . |

Bruce Springsteen tribute band the B Street Band have pulled out of playing a Donald Trump inauguration ball . The group , who call themselves the " number one Bruce Springsteen tribute band " in the US , had been set to play the Garden State Gala at the Washington Court Hotel in DC the day before the president-elect 's inauguration on 20 January . Despite criticism from Springsteen fans and anti-Trump protesters , the band had claimed that the gala , which they have played twice before for President Obama , was a " non-partisan affair " . However , the band have now relented to the pressure and pulled out . In a statement they said : " With deepest apologies to our fans and the New Jersey inaugural ball committee , the B Street Band is withdrawing from performing at this year 's inauguration gala . " They continued : " Our decision is based SOLELY on the respect and gratitude we have for Bruce and the E Street Band . Bruce 's music has been the foundation of our livelihood . The B Street Band would not exist without the talents @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ most grateful to these rock legends and look forward to many more years of emulating and performing the Forever Music , of Bruce Springsteen . " President Barack Obama with Bruce Springsteen at his Medal of Freedom presentation at the White House in November 2016 . Photograph : Pix via ZU/Rex/Shutterstock Springsteen himself has been a vocal critic of Trump . In a recent Guardian interview he said : " " In Trump 's case , the facade is easy to see through , and what you see is a bundle of anxiety , fragility and insecurity . It 's the thinnest possible mask of masculinity . " She wrote : " Regretfully , I did not take into consideration that my performing for the concert would actually instead be taken as a political act against my own personal beliefs and be mistaken for support of Donald Trump and Mike Pence .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves the phrasal verb 'pull out of' followed by a noun phrase 'hosting the Brit Awards', not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object between the verb and 'out of', and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

You may have forgotten Xander Cage , and should have . He 's the **28;329;TOOLONG Vin Diesel played in his 2002 film xXx -- a whopping , if idiotic , hit , which spawned an unsuccessful sequel with Ice Cube in 2005 , and then more or less disappeared into the cultural junkyard in the sky .

The time has been deemed right for Cage to be dragged out of hiding , and the first truly ridiculous thing about xXx : The Return of Xander Cage is the character 's idea of going to ground .

Diesel is n't quite 50 yet , and has very big arms , but we 're still nearing **27;359;TOOLONG Kill levels of barely dominating his own film : you feel sorry for the conspicuously agile stunt doubles who 've had to shave all their hair off . The film ca n't prove that its star is any good at doing flip tricks down the side of a moving bus , so it settles for a reassertion of his red-blooded credentials which could hardly be more hilarious if it tried . A sextet of speechless hotties get bedded at once when he pops up in London to retrieve a fur coat . He 's oblivious to his own innuendo , too : " I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Pacific , " he explains during a beachfront arms drop .

Naomi Long says the Labour leader is not doing enough to address the Northern Ireland political crisis Getty Images Jeremy Corbyn has failed to act on the Northern Ireland political crisis because he is worried allegations will resurface that he supports militant Republicanism , a leading politician has said . Power-sharing collapsed at Stormont earlier this week after more than a decade of cooperation and joint rule between nationalist and unionist politicians . Naomi Long , who is leader of the anti-sectarianism Alliance Party , told The Independent that both the Conservatives and Labour were failing to recognise the gravity of the situation . The Labour leader has long been accused of harbouring Republican sympathies , having attended and given speeches at an official commemoration in 1988 to honour dead IRA terrorists during the Troubles , also referring to their imprisoned members as " prisoners of war " . Mr Corbyn has previously denied having any connections to or political sympathy for the group . Ms Long said Mr Corbyn was not doing enough to address the political crisis in Northern Ireland , saying it could be partly due to fear that his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ She told The Independent : " I think there is a reluctance for him to engage in the present Northern Irish political crisis because of the line he has taken in the past . " She added that constant reshuffles of Mr Corbyn 's cabinet meant that there have been four Shadow Northern Ireland Secretaries under the Labour leader , which undermined relationships between the party and Northern Irish politicians due to loss of institutional knowledge and personal links . She said : " I think we 're on to our fourth secretary of state from Labour . People like Vernon Coaker and Ivan Lewis , had a good working relationship with the local parties and a good understanding of what is going on . But we have this constant flux within Labour . " Ms Long also expressed concern that continued in-fighting in Labour related to Mr Corbyn 's electability meant the party had become inward looking , at the expense of wider issues , such as the Northern Ireland crisis . She said : " They are very much focused on Labour 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ terms of what 's going on in Northern Ireland . " Stormont 's executive collapsed on Monday after Sinn Fein pulled out of power-sharing with the Democratic Unionist Party . Martin McGuinness resigned as Deputy First Minister , citing concerns at what he called the DUP 's " arrogance " over how the party 's leader had dealt with claims of financial mismanagement . Arlene Foster , Northern Ireland 's First Minister , is accused of mishandling a government renewable heat scheme which has cost the tax payer ? 490m .

There are plenty of reasons why you might criticise Donald Trump . His fanboyish attitude to Vladimir Putin , his undermining of NATO and his attitude to women present themselves as obvious examples . But the response to his choice of US ambassador to London has been ridiculous . Some commentators seem to think it somehow absurd or scandalous that Woody Johnson has been named as Washington 's representative at the Court of St James . Shock -- he 's a billionaire who owns an American football team . Horror -- he 's a personal friend and political ally of the incoming president . To be surprised by either of these things you either have to know nothing at all about American ambassadors , or be willing to put aside the facts about them in order to fabricate an opportunity to have a go at Trump . US ambassadors are not like Foreign Office diplomats -- they are personal , political appointees of the White House rather than career diplomats . This has its upsides ( under such a system Downing Street would n't have to contend with a diplomatic corps which has long been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , in that sometimes they find that diplomatic life does n't suit them and other times they turn out not to be well-suited to diplomacy . As a result of this very different system , it would be a surprise if any US ambassador to the UK turned out not to be a ) wealthy and b ) a personal ally and friend of the President . Matthew Barzun , the previous ambassador , was a very nice bloke who was well-regarded in the job . He was also a rich businessman ( he 's married to the Jack Daniels heiress ) and a former intern for John Kerry who led sizeable fundraising efforts for Obama in 2008 . Barzun 's predecessor , Louis Susman , was a former managing director of Citibank who also led fundraising efforts for Obama and for Kerry before him . Susman 's predecessor was Robert Tuttle , son of an automobile magnate and a former Reagan staffer who raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for George W. Bush 's campaign . Before Tuttle came William Stamps Farish , a leading racehorse @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was a lifelong friend of Bush and donated $100,000 to his campaign for the presidential nomination . Clinton 's ambassadors had only slightly more mixed credentials -- Philip Laden was a millionaire businessman and close friend of the President , but his predecessor William Crowe was a former admiral who chaired the Joint Chiefs of Staff under Reagan and Bush senior , before converting to endorse Clinton in 1992 . Crowe 's reward was the job in London . I could go on -- but suffice to say that Johnson 's CV and political links are entirely normal for US ambassadors . It 's absurd that there is such arch disapproval of his appointment when predecessors with exactly the same records arrived in the job without the raising of an eyebrow . Indeed , Obama appointed almost a carbon copy when he made Dan Rooney , owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers , as ambassador to Ireland , but strangely no-one suggested this was out of keeping with promises of either hope or change . The inconsistency of this faux shock makes it hard to avoid the conclusion @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Disapprove of him all you wish on the grounds of things he has actually got wrong , but Johnson 's credentials are the wrong target . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'made a career out of studying politicians', where 'studying politicians' is a gerund phrase functioning as the object of the preposition 'out of', and there is no NP object between the verb 'made' and 'out of'. Additionally, the interpretation does not involve movement/extraction or prevention, which are key to the transitive out of -ing construction.

The inaugurations of US presidents past provide some of the most memorable soundtracks to our modern history . They were powerful orators whose carefully crafted words continue to resonate through time . John F Kennedy 's " Ask not what your country ... " and Franklin D Roosevelt 's " The only thing we have to fear ... " immediately spring to mind . Add to that pantheon of wordsmiths Donald J Trump . Here is a paragraph from his contribution to the American archive : Video:What is Trump 's body language saying ? " We must protect our borders from the ravages of other countries making our products , stealing our companies and destroying our jobs . Protection will lead to great prosperity and strength . " I will fight for you with every breath in my body and I will never , ever let you down . America will start winning again , winning like never before . " It is not really fair to compare President Trump to some of his linguistically gifted predecessors . He has never claimed to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And you may not like his divisive , maximalist , language but few can argue that Mr Trump is not a skilful communicator . Video:Trump 's historic oath of office His utterances on the campaign trail , his news conferences and interviews have been pored over by language experts and put through complicated speech analysis programmes . They have discovered Mr Trump has a pattern . Short and simple . Author and journalist Sam Leith , who describes himself as a rhetoric geek , has studied Mr Trump 's vocabulary closely . He concedes that while the billionaire businessman may not have the same flair for oratory as Barack Obama he is , nevertheless , a skilful communicator . " Trump 's language obeys no known laws of conventional English grammar . That in itself is effective . He speaks in these charged , emotional terms . Video : ' America first ' : Inauguration speech in full Everything bad is " failing " and " crooked " , and everything great is " wonderful " , " beautiful " , " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It means you end up with something that has no logical structure , but is a whole series of loaded words . Mr Trump 's speeches and news conferences are criticised for being largely fact-free . Remember what he said about Mexico and Mexicans : " They 're bringing drugs , they 're bringing crime , they 're rapists . And some , some I assume , are good people . " Comedian Rory Bremner , who returns to the road next month with his biting satirical show after a 10-year absence , has made a career out of studying politicians - and he has had no difficulty of adding the 45th US President to his extensive repertoire . He told me Mr Trump has one default hand gesture that 's used to distract us from his general vagueness . Putting index finger and thumb together ( much like a darts player would just before the throw ) is a way , says Bremner , of faking precision . " There 's a lot of New York about him . There 's a lot of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and comfortably slipping into Mr Trump 's unmistakable voice . " His signature gesture is that ( raising finger and thumb ) - and it suggests precision . And often when he uses it he 's being anything but . He 's being vague . " Mr Trump is derided for his seeming inarticulacy . But while his political rhetoric lacks the florid vocabulary of his predecessors there is no doubting its strength . After all , he convinced America to elect him President .

This weekend 's Premier League fixtures look a little flat until you realise that sandwiched right in the middle there is the small matter of Spurs travelling to Manchester City , which is our Fixture In Focus here at Football FanCast . To say the two teams enter this game in different runs of form would be an understatement , with Mauricio Pochettino 's Lilywhites riding high on six back-to-back league wins , while Pep Guardiola has conceded title defeat -- publicly , at least -- after two losses on Merseyside since New Year 's Eve . However , that 's not to say this game is a foregone conclusion , with big matches enough to bring the best out of under-performing stars and overawe players performing above their true ability . With that in mind , a Man City victory is by no means out of the question , and this how-to-guide may leave them ideally placed to achieve it ... Man City just need to take a step back and re-assess everything after that loss at Everton . Guardiola , although @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and changed to such an extent all season that no level of fluency has been kept in the Citizens ' game and results have , as a consequence , fluctuated . For this game , and the next few , we think the Spaniard should take it back to basics and concentrate on making his team solid and hard to break down . With the attacking talent he has at his disposal , chances and goals should still come , but for now the priority has to be to stop the knife piecing his butter-like defence . On that front , 4-1-4-1 seems logical and should offer the centre-backs protection . Starting at the back , John Stones and Nicolas Otamendi have to feature , despite the former 's woes at Everton , with full-backs either side that will support them defensively . There are question marks surrounding all of City 's options on the flanks at the back , but Aleksandar Kolarov and Bacary Sagna may be the best of a bad bunch . Just in front of them , Pablo Zabaleta is the only option @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Toure far from suited to occupying the zone alone . The Argentine may not boast the mobility he had when he emerged as a cult hero at the Etihad Stadium , but he can read the game well and lean on his experience . The aforementioned Toure and David Silva should slot in just ahead of him , offering a mix of creativity and brute force that may be enough to disrupt Spurs ' fluency in the middle . On the flanks Kevin De Bruyne and Raheem Sterling will be key , with the pair vital in making the ball stick in the final third . Sergio Aguero , who will almost certainly start up top , is an excellent marksman , but he can be made to look isolated without the correct support , so it 's essential the Anglo-Belgian duo get around him when City are in possession and bust a gut to move forward on the counter-attack . With Jan Vertonghen injured , Spurs , who have been using a back three of late , have a decision @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will almost certainly be pairing Eric Dier and Toby Alderweireld , who have looked shaky together on occasion , while a three-man set-up will see the aforementioned pair accompanied by Welshman Ben Davies , who is primarily a full-back . Although individually they are all good defensive players , collectively they could be vulnerable to being dragged out of position , especially by a forward like Aguero . Sterling and De Bruyne may be able to exploit the space wing-backs Danny Rose and Kyle Walker will , at some point , leave , so if they can pull one of the central threesome towards them , Aguero is , in theory , the ideal man to nip and exploit the space . With six goals in his last four games , Kane will be licking his lips at the prospect of facing a Man City defence that , to put it kindly , is woefully out-of-form . Stones , although a very good footballer , is not a ' defence-first ' centre-back , and with Kane very much old-school in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mismatch that favours the striker . How do City top him , then ? Well , this is easier said than done , and few teams have been able to silence the Englishman across 90 minutes since his return from injury . The best approach might well be to cut off the service , meaning the central midfielders will have to track both Alli and Eriksen , while the wide-men will be required to support their full-backs in ensuring Walker and Rose are not allowed to drive to the byline and deliver crosses . Yep , ' Pab Zab ' could be the key man . The 32-year-old is not the force he was a few seasons ago , but he still has enough in the tank to influence a big game , and with no other holding midfielders available to Guardiola , he will need to be at his best as the screen , which is essential in a 4-1-4-1 set-up . Zabaleta wo n't be asked to get forward , but he will be tasked with disrupting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ supply to Kane by blocking passing lanes and robbing Eriksen and Alli of the ball . If he 's supported effectively by those around him , it could work , but if not , his lack of mobility will be there for all to see . |

Being owner and chairman of this historic Nottingham institution is about more than just an ego trip ; it is a responsibility . There is a duty of care . To thousands upon thousands of Nottingham people , this football club is an inspiration ; a Saturday afternoon escape on the banks of the River Trent . Red runs through their veins , in more ways than one . It is an institution , one that , like the famous river that Brian Clough once claimed to have walked upon , has run through the heart of this city for countless generations and will do so for generations to come . It is a source of sepia-tinged memories and of optimism and hope for the future in equal measure . Only recently , there has been little in the way of hope . There has been only frustration and disappointment . In 2012 Fawaz Al Hasawi arrived with good intentions and terrific ambition . He almost certainly still has both . He has unquestionably put his money where his mouth is . Fawaz Al Hasawi is greeted by fans on the day his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ while he spoke of his love of the club and of adding a third star to the Forest shirt ; while he arrived with a five-year plan , Forest are now unquestionably closer to League One than they are to the Premier League . Stripped of any infrastructure , devoid of any meaningful hierarchy , Forest have made headlines as often for unpaid bills , late wages , High Court visits and a missing ground safety certificate as they have for successes on the pitch . Whatever the reason for the breakdown in talks , now is the time for YOU to start acting in the best interests of the club , Fawaz ; to repair the damage of the last four years and get Forest moving in the right direction . Structure must be put back in place . The right manager must be chosen -- and given time . The club 's best young players must be retained , not sold off , as Oliver Burke was . If you can not do that , then there is no other alternative for this historic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sell it . You are too generous NEP . The situation has gone too far to think that FAWAZ deserves a chance to ' sort it ' . He 's finished , but has to hang on for many months more until some other mugs come forward to offload their money into our club . Ellen is not a football fan so why is she going on a Forest blog ? As for the criticism of Paul Taylor - well yes he does appear to have jumped on the wagon but he is in a difficult position - he would not have been welcome at the City Ground if he had initiated protests and therefore would not have been able to do his job , earn a living etc . Also , possibly , all the Post sports team could have been banned from the ground and then us fans would hear nothing ! Blimey ! Ellen Ripley 's really famous now - does it matter if he/she does n't like football ? . All these criticisms of Paul Taylor seem a bit OTT , I instantly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's a genuine Forest fan and just a guy doing his job . P.S Taylor 's got some cheek . I first lauded a protest on here months ago and was slated for it . This was just after Burke was sold . I was told to get over it . Now you lot are all over my protest idea . Taylor - no sign of leading anything until people got off their jacksies and organised their own happening . Now Taylor wants in on it . Just like he muscled in on someone else 's work when he needed an article to his name re , Americans . Loves to hijack other people 's work for his own means does Paul Taylor . EllenRipley January 21 2017 , 7:49AM Why is this fluff front page news ? ....... I grew out of watching football when I hit puberty , pity everyone else did not . ------ Whereas calling yourself Ellen Ripley on the internet is a very grown up thing to do lol. |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pulled out of training' involves an NP ('training') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', but it does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Saturday was the first game for Chapecoense since the team was nearly wiped out in a plane crash They were the underdogs who battled through to the final of the Copa Sudamericana Chapeco , Brazil ( CNN ) It was a trophy presentation that will stay with me forever . No fist pumps , no back-slapping , no shouting and screaming . There was barely even a team , just a handful of players choking back the tears as they lowered their heads to receive their medals . It was not a happy occasion . It was a brutal ordeal . Neto , Alan Ruschel and Jackson Follmann -- whose right leg has been partially amputated -- are Chapecoense 's only survivors from the team that set out to play in the final of the Copa Sudamericana . Their salute to the crowd , with Follmann clutching the cup in a motorized wheelchair , was unforgettable -- pitiful and uplifting in equal measure . It was n't how they thought they 'd be returning to Chapeco , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Saturday was another extraordinary day for Chapecoense , a day of mixed , not to mention extreme , emotions . Read More Chapecoense was playing its first game since the team was nearly wiped out in a plane crash on November 29 . In the space of just a few short weeks , 22 players have been recruited to form a brand new team , a band so hastily arranged that one player was even pulled out of training in front of me on Thursday to quickly sign his contract on the sideline . But yet , Chape held the national champions to a 2-2 draw , each of the goals , from Douglas Grolli and Amaral , aiding the catharsis . They accepted medals on behalf of their dads , husbands , boyfriends and fianc ? s -- what should have been symbols of triumph , instead were very bittersweet tokens . Most wept openly on the platform , supporting each other , trying to hold them up . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their seats , but this was no celebration . These families had to watch as new players took the field wearing the shirts and numbers of their loved ones , and as most of the fans in the stadium cheered what will be the dawn of a new era and the first match for the new team . This all played out less than two months after the crash , gaping emotional wounds ca n't possibly heal that fast , if at all . The only ones immune to the suffering were the youngest : the widow of Marcelo Augusto returned to her seat , baby son Joao sleeping with his dad 's medal around his neck . As I spoke with the widow of the club 's vice president of marketing , Jandir Bordignon , she clutched her medal and shrugged her shoulders as if to say " so what . ' " For Palmerias , the opposition team and national champions , playing in such conditions must have been an almost impossible task . It was obviously hard for Chapecoense 's players , whose manager @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ locker room , shielding them from the emotion . Over breakfast , the Palmeiras general manager Cicero Souza had told me that once the whistle blew , there would be no sympathy for Chapecoense . " Chape do n't want to be treated as victims " , he said . But by the end of the day , he was visibly moved ; describing the occasion as " emotional and a privilege to have been a part of it . " Some Palmerias fans agreed . One man told me that he 'd driven 13 hours from Sao Paulo just to be here . Overall , this was more positive , an attempt to close a chapter , heal and move forward . The ground was festooned with little origami , inside of which were messages like " amor " ( love ) and " alegria " ( happiness ) , creations that had been sent in from all over the world . It 's a reminder that this was much more than just a local or national tragedy , Chapecoense 's fate captured hearts on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Jorge Luis de Andrade , told me , " We appreciate the solidarity , the whole world is watching and such exposure only brings us prosperity . " The fans were impressed . The local radio reporter , UOL 's Daniel Fasolin told me how struck he was by the players ' mental strength . Supporter Fernando Silva said , " they have the spirit of a big important team . " Julio Oliveira said , " I think we can recover our prestige very quickly . " Of course , it 's far too early to say , but in the circumstances this was pretty much the best anyone could have hoped for . The night is indeed darkest before the dawn . The past will never be forgotten -- this game was stopped in the 71st minute to remember the 71 victims of the crash -- and their legacy is now in the DNA of the club . The striker Tulio de Melo , who returned to his old team to help rebuild it , told me " It was not a normal game , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , we did good for the honor of our friends who are not here anymore . " But the recovery wo n't be fully complete until Neto and Ruschel are back on the team -- both are expected to play again later this year . Asked if January 21 should be considered a date to be commemorated , Ruschel offered another , the day of the crash -- November 29 . " My rebirth needs to be commemorated in November , Chapecoense also has to commemorate that day . " |

BY agreeing to extend his contract at Celtic by a further two years , Mikael Lustig delivered a message that went far beyond his own personal circumstances . The Swede has been a reliable , steady presence on the right side of Celtic 's defence since moving from Rosenborg in January 2012 , a player team-mates and managers , including current incumbent Brendan Rodgers , know they can hang their hat on . With his family settled in Scotland it was not a surprise that Lustig wanted to stay at Celtic , and , similarly , that the club were keen to hold on to him . More enlightening , however , were the 30-year-old 's reasons for not choosing to seek greater financial rewards elsewhere , having admitted to checking out his alternative options in the unlikely event the club had n't put a new contract on the table for him to sign .

" Before you come here and you do n't know what Celtic is all about then it 's easy to say that you want to just stay for one or two seasons then go to the Premier League . In my opinion Celtic is a massive club and it 's really hard to get that somewhere else . The money is obviously better down south but it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are bigger than Celtic . " He could yet finish his career in Scotland , although he does not envisage the end zooming into focus for some time yet . " Of course , but I am still just 30 , so hopefully I have a few years left in me . You never how your body is going to react but the last two seasons have been really good so hopefully I am going to have the opportunity to sign another contract as well after this one . " The glamour of the Champions League knock-out stages will seem some distance away this afternoon when Lustig and Celtic get back into competitive action following the winter break when they take on Albion Rovers in the Scottish Cup at neutral Airdrie . Rovers manager Darren Young will have the experienced figure of Billy Stark next to him in the dug-out and Rodgers felt being able to call upon that level of insight is hugely important for any young coach . " I remember when I first started at Watford I had Frank Lampard Snr with me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Just that bit of experience can be invaluable . I have a story about the late Graham Taylor who I took into Watford when I went there . Early on we had lost a game and I got a phone call as I drove away in my car . " Graham said : ' listen son , do n't worry , this is what happens . My only advice to you is , and have this for the rest of your career , do n't pick your next team while driving in the car ' . What was I doing right then ? I was picking my next team ! And I 've never done it since . " My point is that having that experience beside you , especially early on in your career is invaluable . Billy has been a fantastic player and a great assistant manager for people and I 'm sure he is doing a great job with Darren . " Rodgers gave the hint that he would not veer too drastically from what would be his recognised starting line-up . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Premier League or up here , you always pick a team to win . What I 've learned from experience is that if you really want to win the competition , then if you make too many changes , it unbalances you . I think I 've done that in my time here .

The sentence 'Wolves fell to defeat at Norwich on Saturday having not played as well as in recent games, but still feeling cheated out of getting something from the game when a blatant dive earned Norwich their vital second goal.' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Here, 'Wolves' is the NP subject, 'feeling cheated' involves the V1 'cheated', 'out of getting something from the game' is the VP2[-ing] predicate, and it implies a prevention interpretation where Wolves were prevented from getting something from the game due to being cheated. This aligns with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Wolves fell to defeat at Norwich on Saturday having not played as well as in recent games , but still feeling cheated out of getting something from the game when a blatant dive earned Norwich their vital second goal . It was a disappointing way for the game to be decided after Wolves had knuckled down to match their opponents and looked on the way to at least a point .

Then Iorfa found Edwards who shot over from 20 yards . Chances at either end just before the break with Mason shooting over and then Batth blocking a goalbound Jerome effort .

The sentence 'Wolves fell to defeat at Norwich on Saturday having not played as well as in recent games, but still feeling cheated out of getting something from the game when a blatant dive earned Norwich their vital second goal.' involves the transitive out of -ing construction. The structure is 'Wolves (NP subject) + feeling cheated (V1) + out of getting something from the game (VP2[-ing] predicate)', which fits the pattern NP subject + V1 + out of VP2[-ing]. It also has a prevention interpretation, where Wolves were prevented from getting something from the game due to being cheated. The verb 'cheated' fits the means of deception or trickery, and the NP object is implied as Wolves themselves, functioning as causee.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes how Indian restaurants created curries from various ingredients, which does not involve a causee or a prevention/movement interpretation. The phrase 'out of everything' and 'out of a mysterious fish' are not instances of the transitive out of -ing construction as they lack the necessary grammatical and semantic properties.

When you have missed the homeward bus , the shops have brilliant windows but locked doors , and the pavements are greasy black with rain a Northern city can be an inhospitable place . Once there was nothing to do and nowhere to go : now there are Indian restaurants . In the middle of every night , Sunday or weekday , when the cafes and steak houses are shut and their waiters asleep , egg pilao and Madras chicken curry , Bhuna Gosht , Kofta , Jelabi , and Poppadum are coming to birth , filling and astonishing the mouths of those who always miss buses , all over Britain . Provision , naturally , is made for the few who dislike being astonished at table : they can order fried eggs or cups of unsuccessful white coffee tinged with charcoal , but the cooks , temperamentally , can not put their hearts into a chip . The number of Indian restaurants in this country is hard to discover . There must be about a dozen in the Manchester district . There are certainly at least a hundred in London , and they are spreading over @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ unlikely as Northampton . Former seamen The overwhelming majority of these restaurants are not in fact Indian but Pakistani , and the one chain of restaurants which is Indian owned and managed uses Pakistani waiters . Most come from East Pakistan , from the famine regions near Dacca or Sylhet ; many must have formed part of those thousands of seamen who have left Pakistani ships in British ports over the last few years . Now , the gentlest of waiters , they sometimes distress their employers by a feverish enthusiasm for their rights under the Welfare State . Read more Indian restaurants for the British public began in London with Veeraswami 's , which opened in the late twenties . The first Koh-i-Noor followed in 1929 . In those days the clientele was limited mostly to the homesick prince , or the lover of the exotic : at one time or another most of the Indian rulers called and fed , with their retinues . Running up accounts with these private armies of secretaries and musicians and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ master and retinue would refuse to pay , both arguing that it was the other 's responsibility . At such moments the proprietor of the Koh-i-Noor would call upon the services of a solicitor in full morning dress , with silk hat . The cook prepares a curry at the Bombay Restaurant , Manchester , 1957 . Photograph : The Guardian Other moments of tension accompanied the dealings of customers on leave from the Indian Army or Government with waiters who were sometimes political refugees . One famous row broke out between a Major Blank and a waiter who refused , whatever the major might claim to be normal practice in India , to clean his shoes at the end of the meal . " Why am I freer in your country than in my own ? " The manager took the waiter into the kitchen and soothed him . The major left with his shoes dirty . War is the time when Englishmen sincerely prefer their mother 's cooking to a restaurant and when small restaurants do well Disconsolate men in uniform crowd the streets in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Indian cookery took its chance , profiting from its advantage of flexibility over the English kitchen .

In the ' Spice Box ' , the shop under the Bombay Restaurant , Manchester , 1957 . Photograph : The Guardian Rice was replaced by boiled barley or chopped macaroni . Seamen off the supply fleets provided the necessary pool of labour for an expansion . Abroad , in the Far East , a vast new clientele learnt about biriyanis and sambals , and once back home was unwilling to let the experience lapse . Indian independence brought back others , and now three-quarters of the excellent business which the restaurants do is done with the English . An Indian meal is a normal part of pleasure in several Midland cities , which surprises the Continental visitor . The proprietors are at once @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an instant fuss if they are given Italian rice instead of Siamese first quality , who know and are angry if the spices have been added a minute too late in the frying stage . The patrons , some of whom come in every day for lunch , are usually in their middle thirties . They are liberal in their ideas : one proprietor , when I asked him to account for the success of Indian restaurants . answered surprisingly : " It is because , since the war , English people know each other better . " As I went out I noticed a woman standing at the spice counter . She wore a headscarf and an ancient grey over-coat , and her bare legs were red with cold . In a sharply Lancashire accent , she was insisting upon one kind of " dhal " ( lentils ) rather than another . The man went to fetch her order : she turned her head to watch him and suddenly , twinkling above her left nostril in the rainy light from the window , I saw a little @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

Article 50 needs to be triggered before the country can begin the process of leaving the EU .

The initial trailer for xXx : Return of Xander Cage raised a lot of questions in scientific circles . Since the age of Jesus , motorcycles have not been able to ride successfully on water . However , in the trailer released late last year , we saw Vin Diesel pursue Donnie Yen through , over , and in , waves . I 'm not saying that we should abandon common sense and science at the door when you see all films , but for xXx , make the exception . After 12 years off-screen , the death of a friend causes Toni Collette to encourage the extreme sports rebel to come out of hiding and return to the fold . Cue an initial 45 minutes of film that transcends extreme action and looks deep into the world a 13-year-old 's bedroom . The puberty comment comes from two aspects of the first 45 minutes : one good and one slightly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be described as an Overwatch character selection screen ( to be down with the kids ) - with their interests , hobbies and favourite sushi type displayed to the right . It 's one of Adele Wolf 's ( Ruby Rose ) descriptive sides that gives the game away that I 'm not the current demographic for this film . After " evening the odds " by injuring hunters attempting to kill a lion , Adele struts away as her info appears to the side : " Call of Duty Tag - LadyBoner " . The film 's tone then makes sense to me--it 's for red-blooded men - specifically men who occasionally spend their evenings pwning newbs whilst telling anonymous acquaintances to fuck their mother . I 'm cool with that--like 100% cool--however what grates me the most is this : how the fuck does every woman want to mack on Vin Diesel ? It 's not subtle and at times it really takes away from what the story could be . Instead of Diesel having to work at getting information , he sleeps with a gaggle @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the test and becoming part of the CIA again , he gets hit on , albeit incredibly awkwardly , by Nina Dobrev in what might be the cringiest scene in recent memory . Love interests did appear in the original xXx but they were n't all like " Xander Cage , I hear you are the largest in the locker room . " Yes , I 'm a red-blooded male but everything is ok in moderation ( James Bond runs the line of moderation well here , whilst Jason Bourne just does n't bother as he 's too busy punching people with books ) . Hopefully , if there 's a sequel ( this was only made thanks to significant Chinese investment ) they 'll tip the scales in favour of ' 90s-esque canon action - because when xXx does action , it does it well . The first 45 minutes also includes one example of what makes xXx special : action scenes that should be impossible . Like the Furious franchise , you need to leave your sense of logic at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ down a cliff , pulling off tricks before moving over to a longboard . Instead of nodding and going " That 'll do pig " , xXx continues to constantly up the ante when it comes to action scenes , a statement contributed to directly by the casting of both Donnie Yen and Tony Jaa in the same film . Yen 's fights with Diesel ( and eventually the whole ensemble ) are exquisite , but nothing comes close to the opening scene where Yen displays gunplay previously only seen in the original Matrix films . It 's electrifying and precise , with the only flaw being that it did n't last long enough . Without driving too fast ( and furious ) into the other action set pieces , they are just as good . They are more improbable than impossible , which is where the film works . There 's no time to explain how Diesel and his crew manage to redacted or get to redacted in this piece so just nod , take a handful of nachos soaked in film cheese , and let the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the cinema ? Sure . Should you expect certain sections of your friendship group to groan when you say you 're going to see it ? Yes . At the end of the day , it 's an enjoyable romp with a few problems , but overall , it sets up a world that I 'll happily return to . |

The puberty comment comes from two aspects of the first 45 minutes : one good and one slightly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be described as an Overwatch character selection screen ( to be down with the kids ) - with their interests , hobbies and favourite sushi type displayed to the right . It 's one of Adele Wolf 's ( Ruby Rose ) descriptive sides that gives the game away that I 'm not the current demographic for this film . After " evening the odds " by injuring hunters attempting to kill a lion , Adele struts away as her info appears to the side : " Call of Duty Tag - LadyBoner " . The film 's tone then makes sense to me--it 's for red-blooded men - specifically men who occasionally spend their evenings pwning newbs whilst telling anonymous acquaintances to fuck their mother . I 'm cool with that--like 100% cool--however what grates me the most is this : how the fuck does every woman want to mack on Vin Diesel ? It 's not subtle and at times it really takes away from what the story could be . Instead of Diesel having to work at getting information , he sleeps with a gaggle @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the test and becoming part of the CIA again , he gets hit on , albeit incredibly awkwardly , by Nina Dobrev in what might be the cringiest scene in recent memory . Love interests did appear in the original xXx but they were n't all like " Xander Cage , I hear you are the largest in the locker room . " Yes , I 'm a red-blooded male but everything is ok in moderation ( James Bond runs the line of moderation well here , whilst Jason Bourne just does n't bother as he 's too busy punching people with books ) . Hopefully , if there 's a sequel ( this was only made thanks to significant Chinese investment ) they 'll tip the scales in favour of ' 90s-esque canon action - because when xXx does action , it does it well . The first 45 minutes also includes one example of what makes xXx special : action scenes that should be impossible . Like the Furious franchise , you need to leave your sense of logic at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ down a cliff , pulling off tricks before moving over to a longboard . Instead of nodding and going " That 'll do pig " , xXx continues to constantly up the ante when it comes to action scenes , a statement contributed to directly by the casting of both Donnie Yen and Tony Jaa in the same film . Yen 's fights with Diesel ( and eventually the whole ensemble ) are exquisite , but nothing comes close to the opening scene where Yen displays gunplay previously only seen in the original Matrix films . It 's electrifying and precise , with the only flaw being that it did n't last long enough . Without driving too fast ( and furious ) into the other action set pieces , they are just as good . They are more improbable than impossible , which is where the film works . There 's no time to explain how Diesel and his crew manage to redacted or get to redacted in this piece so just nod , take a handful of nachos soaked in film cheese , and let the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the cinema ? Sure . Should you expect certain sections of your friendship group to groan when you say you 're going to see it ? Yes . At the end of the day , it 's an enjoyable romp with a few problems , but overall , it sets up a world that I 'll happily return to . |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'Bafana Bafana' is the NP object and 'qualifying to host the tournament' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. The verb 'airlifted' suggests a means of exerting force or pressure, fitting one of the verb categories. The interpretation is prevention, as the action prevented Bafana Bafana from qualifying to host the tournament. The NP object 'Bafana Bafana' is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

The Tunisian referee Ali Bin Nasser will never be allowed to forget his role in one of the most galling defeats in English history but , in the name of fair play , we should also recall that only a few months prior to carrying out an impromptu study of Mexican cloud patterns while Diego Maradona punched the ball past Peter Shilton , Bin Nasser presided over a glorious English success . He was the referee who kept a careful eye on the 1986 Africa Cup of Nations final , scrupulously permitting no manual skulduggery as the manager Mike Smith helped Egypt to end a long and painful wait for victory . So let 's call it quits . Egypt 's Nations Cup history got off to a misleadingly straightforward start . They won the first two editions , when there were barely enough competitors to call it a tournament , and finished runners-up in the next one but then began to struggle despite the country 's club scene flourishing . Indeed , in 1967 , in the wake of the humiliating loss in the six-day @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ flourishing far too much , distracting the menfolk and sapping their mettle . So he outlawed it . The ban was lifted in 1971 , and three years later Egypt hosted the tournament for the first time . They flopped , beaten in the semi-final by a fine Zaire side . Staging the final was painful after that and as if to compound the hosts ' woe Zaire and Zambia drew 2-2 in front of a minuscule crowd , obliging Egypt to stage a replay , which Zaire won 2-0 . Read more So Egypt were a team under serious pressure when they next hosted the tournament , in 1986 . At the time there was plenty of money swishing around Egyptian football . Many foreign coaches were lured , such as Don Revie , who won the 1984 African Cup Winners ' Cup with Al Ahly , while Smith was appointed to the national team job a decade after guiding Wales to within a play-off of the 1976 European Championship . Smith helped arrange England 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ winning 4-0 in a friendly in Cairo in January 1986 . Two months later the Africa Cup of Nations kicked off in the same city -- and Egypt looked set for another chastening flop , as a Jules Bocand ? -inspired Senegal upset them 1-0 . But Smith 's side rallied , finishing top of the group thanks to wins over Ivory Coast and Mozambique before edging out Morocco in the semi-final with a goal by Taher Abouzeid , aka " the Maradona of the Nile " . No one scored in the final , which , in stark contrast to the previous one staged in Cairo , was attended by around 100,000 people . Most of those people fell into silence when Cameroon 's Thomas N'Kono saved Mustafa Abdou 's penalty in the shootout . But Thabet El-Batal restored hope by saving from Gr ? goire M'Bida . And joy erupted when Andr ? Kana-Biyik shot wide to give Egypt and Smith victory . Smith could not repeat that success in 1988 , when Egypt slipped out at the group stage , and did not have as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ brilliant successors ( Mohamed El Gahary and Hassan Shehata ) did . But in 1986 he did what was asked of him . And how many other English managers since Sir Alf Ramsey have won an international tournament ? And on a penalty shootout , to boot . PD The thinking before the 1972 tournament was that the best that the players of the People 's Republic of Congo could hope for was a creditable performance against their neighbours Zaire , who were the most likely challengers for the title along with the hosts Cameroon and Salif Keita 's Mali . Congo achieved that in their second group match , when they played well but lost 2-0 to the Leopards . But Congo were not content with that and tonked Sudan 4-2 in their final group game , meaning they finished level on points and goal difference with Morocco . A raffle featuring two pieces of paper and a basket was hastily arranged to determine which country would be declared group runners-up . Luck favoured the Red Devils @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , however , as the semi-final pitted them against Cameroon , who had benefited from the sort of luck that hosts often enjoy when they drew their final group game thanks to a goal scored after the Malian defence had stopped in the belief that the ball had gone way out of play . " That 's one the biggest scandals in Africa Cup of Nations history , it was at least five metres out ! " thundered the commentator on Malian radio after the Egyptian referee allowed the goal to stand , although Keita , who had watched from the press box because of injury , said afterwards that " it was only out by 1.5 to two metres . " If that was scandalous , the semi-final was shocking in the best sense . Cameroon , slow and sterile either because of complacency or the weight of expectation , could not make any inroads against zesty and imaginative young underdogs . Congo opened the scoring after half an hour through their rugged and inventive central midfielder No ? l " P ? p ? " Minga and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ powerful spirit under manager Adolphe Bibandzoulou and their squad contained some truly nifty players -- such as the marauding winger Jonas " Tostao " Mbemba , the striker Jean-Michel " Sorcerer " M'Bono of ? toile du Congo and a 21-year-old Paul Moukila , who began to show at this tournament the sort of form that would later make him an African player of the year . Congo 's best foreign-based player was the Ajaccio midfielder Fran ? ois M'P ? l ? , later of Paris Saint-Germain . All very well , but Mali had Keita , the 1970 African footballer of the year and a regular destroyer of European defences with St Etienne . Injury forced Keita out of the final after 21 minutes but Moussa Diakhit ? soon helped prove that Mali still had plenty of other fine players : before half-time he feinted his way past an opponent and lashed a left-foot into the top corner from 25 yards . But Congo upset the odds and overturned the score when M'Bono struck twice in two minutes just before the hour , the second goal a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ edge of the area . M'Bono then teed up a third for M'P ? l ? . Moussa Traor ? pulled one back for Mali but Congo held on to deliver and to become the most surprising champions in the tournament 's history . PD Congo players celebrate after beating Mali in the final in 1972 . Photograph : Videograb/YouTube Any player who scores in a shootout would surely admit to a secret rush of relief -- a realisation that whatever comes next , they have escaped personal culpability . They would do well to heed the tale of Ghana 's Anthony Baffoe , who suffered the exquisite heartache of scoring , exhaling , then being summoned again , with the stakes raised tenfold , and missing . In 1992 , after a run of victories for teams outside the region , west Africa regained continental supremacy in Dakar , Africa 's westernmost city . Four-time champions and favourites Ghana , led by Abedi Pele , faced their neighbours Ivory Coast , whose tough homegrown defence @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Ahead of the semi-final with Cameroon , the Ivory Coast coach , Yeo Martial , had been pragmatic about how they would set up . " In the past we 've played entertaining football , but have returned home without the cup , " Martial told John Salako in Channel Four 's idiosyncratic tournament review . " After a game people ask who won , not who played the better football . " Martial was as good as his word , sending out his team to unsettle the Indomitable Lions ' rhythm that had soundtracked Italia 90 . The game went to penalties , where the Cameroon goalkeeper Joseph-Antoine Bell took it upon himself to take the fourth spot-kick , with predictable results . Ghana , meanwhile , edged past Nigeria , but saw Pele booked and ruled out of the final . The final began at a brisk tempo , Ghana 's Prince Polley volleying over an open goal inside five minutes , but the game drifted for long spells . Ivory Coast saved their best chance for the final minute , Jo ? l @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Ghana goalkeeper Edward Ansah , whose save set up the mother of all penalty shootouts . Basile Aka Kouam ? scored for Ivory Coast , before the Ghana captain , Baffoe , stepped up and smacked the ball into the bottom left corner . The next five spot-kicks were slotted away but the pressure told on Ghana 's teenage defender Isaac Asare , whose mishit bobbled wide . That left Ti ? hi with a chance to redeem his late miss ; his surely struck penalty hit the post , then the goalkeeper , but stayed out . Ghana still had to score , and Tony Yeboah saw his uncharacteristically underhit shot slip through Alain Gouam ? n ? ' s fingers . The shootout was going to sudden death , a format designed not to last . Both sides refused to give in to the inevitable , and 10 more spot-kicks were converted as the sky grew dark . The goalkeepers were forced into action : Gouamane found the top-right corner , Ansah replied with a nerveless effort in the opposite direction . With every @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to what happened next , with several Ghana players wandering upfield to ask the referee . Perhaps they saw something in Baffoe 's eyes , but regardless , the first two takers returned . Aka 's nerves spilled over , his shot hit straight at Ansah -- but incredibly , the keeper clutched at air , the ball trickled in , and the pendulum swung decisively the other way . Baffoe , unable to believe his misfortune , trudged forward , and saw his second penalty saved . Ivory Coast were champions without conceding a goal in the entire tournament and after emerging 11-10 from an epic shootout . NM On 27 April 1993 , the Zambian national team took off from Libreville , Gabon , on the third leg of a marathon journey from Lusaka to Dakar for a World Cup qualifier . Seconds later , the plane exploded over the Gulf of Guinea , killing all 30 passengers , including 18 players and the team coach . As with Superga , Munich and Chapecoense , the crash struck @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of reaching their first World Cup . The tragedy also ignited a feud between Zambia and Gabon , two distant nations drawn into an avoidable disaster . The rickety military plane was scheduled to make three stops -- the second was in Libreville -- in order to reach Senegal . Kalusha Bwalya , Zambia 's star player who missed the fateful flight , has claimed , " We always used to say ' this plane will kill us some day ' " . Nineteen years and one inconclusive investigation later , the enmity between the two countries had not abated . The word " Gabon " had become an insult in Zambia , and the team did not relish a return there . Ever since a new side built around Bwalya had lost the 1994 final to Nigeria , the Africa Cup of Nations had offered nothing but heartache : between 1998 and 2008 , Zambia failed to qualify on one occasion , and went out in the group stage the other five times . When they finally advanced in 2010 , Nigeria were there to deny them again @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Bwalya was president of the Zambian FA , and convinced Herv ? Renard , architect of the 2010 campaign , to have another try with a team Bwalya had moulded from the youth ranks up . Amid the trepidation , Renard could sense destiny calling . They would begin against Senegal , and would only return to Libreville if they reached the final . He packed three of his trademark white shirts ; one for the group stage , one for the knockout games , and one for the final . Renard 's belief was a valuable asset , with Zambia arriving in Gabon as Africa 's 16th-ranked team , but an opening win over Senegal cleared a path to the semi-finals . Perennial contenders Ghana lay in wait , but after shutting their opponents out for 78 minutes , the striker Emmanuel Mayuka curled the ball home from the edge of the box , and Zambia were heading back to Libreville . Upon their arrival , Renard and his players visited a beach near the crash site , letting flowers float out to sea . Two days @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up against the continent 's best team , Ivory Coast . Perhaps unsurprisingly , for two teams who had walked a cautious path to the final , it went to penalties . Along the way , something unexpected happened . The home fans began to root for Zambia , putting aside two decades of bickering to will the team towards their destiny . The moment appeared to have arrived when Kolo Tour ? , stepping up in place of Gervinho , saw his sudden-death penalty saved by Kennedy Mweene . Rainford Kabala strode forward with victory a kick away -- and blazed his penalty over the bar . A sense of dread threatened to consume the ground , but the team 's belief did not waver . Gervinho was urged forward by Didier Drogba , but put his penalty over , handing Zambia another chance . As his team-mates sang in unison , eyes closed , arms aloft , Stoppila Sunzu slipped away , still singing under his breath , eyes filled with a higher purpose . Fourteen @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " a goal for all of Africa " , at the World Cup in 2010 , the South African national team made a divisive Africa Cup of Nations debut on home soil . A founder member of Caf , South Africa had never played a tournament match , disqualified for the first tournament for refusing to field a multiracial team and subsequently banned as apartheid took hold . Read more South Africa made an unremarkable start to life in the tournament after their ban was lifted , failing to qualify for the 1994 tournament , losing to neighbours Zambia and Zimbabwe and being held at home by Mauritius . Things improved in the next campaign , with Leeds ' Phil Masinga scoring winners against Mauritius and Madagascar , but qualification remained an outside chance . That was before the 1996 hosts , Kenya , were stripped of the tournament by Caf over financial irregularities , and Bafana Bafana were airlifted out of qualifying to host the tournament . South Africa 's selection did little to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's military leader , General Sani Abacha . The 1994 Afcon champions , who in August 1996 won Olympic gold , were undoubtedly Africa 's top team , but did not travel to defend their title . The tournament began with 15 teams . South Africa were drawn in a tough group with continental giants Egypt and Cameroon , along with Angola . A crowd of 75,000 poured into Soccer City to watch the team 's first Afcon game , and Masinga set up an unexpected 3-0 win over Cameroon . Wolves ' Mark Williams scored the only goal against Angola , and despite defeat to Egypt , Clive Barker 's team topped the group , avoiding the dangerous Zambians in the quarter-finals . Just over six months after winning the Rugby World Cup in Johannesburg , South Africa sensed another unifying victory with Mandela watching on . Where the rugby team had been predominantly white , Bafana Bafana were a much more diverse group of players -- many , including Lucas Radebe and Shaun Bartlett , were familiar to British audiences -- and played the game beloved @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the edge of Soweto , played host to the final . South Africa booked their place with wins over Algeria and Ghana ( them again ) , John " Shoes " Moshoeu firing three goals across the two games . Barker 's side may have expected to face Zambia in the final , but Tunisia upset the odds in their semi-final , winning 4-2 . The Carthage Eagles were no match for the hosts , and 80,000 fans , as Williams scored twice late on to secure the title on their maiden appearance . It proved the pinnacle of a golden age : South Africa lost to Egypt in 1998 , came third in 2000 and have n't won a knockout game since . NM South Africa 's Neil Tovey holds the cup aloft after being presented with it by Nelson Mandela in 1996 . Photograph : Mark Thompson/Allsport Some day we may have to do a Joy of Six on Tunisian refereeing decisions . The Hand of God will surely get another mention and so will the Mystery @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ somehow ruled that the penalty by Nigeria 's Victor Ikpeba in the shootout of the 2000 final had not crossed the line even though it had -- by about a yard . In fairness to Daami he was not the only one who missed it : his assistant , standing right beside the goal , also failed to notice where Ikpeba 's shot went after hitting the underside of the bar . Everyone else in the stadium saw it , including Ikpeba , who held his head in his hands as he walked away in disbelief . The decision , following misses by Nwankwo Kanu for Nigeria and Marc-Vivien Fo ? for Cameroon , set the stage for Cameroon to pull off a remarkable victory and overshadowed what had been a wonderful final , in which Nigeria fought back from two goals down to draw 2-2 thanks notably to a sublime equaliser by Jay-Jay Okocha . The best things that could be said about the referee 's decision were : it proved he was not a homer , as the molten rage of the Lagos crowd evidently cut @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the introduction of goalline technology ; and it opened the way for the winning spot-kick to be scored by one of the most inspirational international captains of our time , Rigobert Song .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'booted out of Downing Street' involves a passive construction with 'out of' followed by a noun phrase ('Downing Street'), not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object in the sentence that functions as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Only last week , just six months after being booted out of Downing Street , the former Chancellor popped up at the epic billionaires ' schmooze-fest that is the World Economic Forum in Davos , Switzerland . Taking time out from representing his 65,200 constituents , he gave a speech to 20 of HSBC 's top clients , earning a reported ' high five-figure ' fee . What a glamorous and lucrative life the MP for Tatton , George Gideon Oliver Osborne , is leading from the back benches Osborne also found time to hit the party circuit ( wearing a navy pullover under his suit and a pair of trainers ) , posing for a chummy group photo with George and Amal Clooney and former Vanity Fair editor Tina Brown at a charity bash . He then headed off to PR impresario Matthew Freud 's star-studded soiree at the art nouveau Schatzalp Hotel , where he rubbed shoulders with Microsoft billionaire Bill Gates . It goes without saying that this former Bullingdon Club member -- educated at one of Britain 's leading public schools -- feels at his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ grates on Osborne that so many people in Davos are considerably richer than he is , then he will have taken particular satisfaction in his latest foray into the commercial world . Slipped out last Friday , as the world was gripped by the inauguration of U.S. President Trump , was the announcement that Osborne , who is paid ? 75,000-a-year to fulfil his duties as an MP , will be working one day a week as an adviser to the vast American finance firm , BlackRock . This position will add around ? 200,000 a year to the household income at the ? 4million Notting Hill home he shares with wife Frances and their two young children . Yet , it has also reignited the long-standing , and increasingly furious , public debate about the grubby ' revolving door ' between government and the private sector . Since Tony Blair left Downing Street and began lobbying for a mixture of wealthy corporations and dodgy dictators , it has seemingly become almost automatic for ex-Cabinet Ministers to cash in by using the experience they gained in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is theoretically regulated by Acoba , a Whitehall appointments watchdog . Yet in the past eight years , it has not attempted to stop one single civil servant or politician from taking up a job . The Mail this week revealed that Osborne 's new role at BlackRock was waved through despite the fact that he 'd met executives from the finance giant five times during his last two years at the Treasury . Only last week , just six months after being booted out of Downing Street , the former Chancellor popped up at the epic billionaires ' schmooze-fest that is the World Economic Forum in Davos , Switzerland Even without this latest scandalous twist about BlackRock , which has sparked calls for a complete revamp of Parliamentary rules , there can be few dethroned senior politicians who have been quite so shameless and proactive as Osborne in their pursuit of a fast buck . His dash for cash began a mere four weeks after being sacked , when he signed up to an American speaking agency called the Washington Speakers ' Bureau . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's greatest minds ' -- including those noted intellectuals Tony Blair , Alastair Campbell , George W. Bush , the former Alaska governor Sarah Palin and the magician David Blaine -- and has already helped Osborne earn ? 628,000 and counting since he left the Treasury . Some of the financial institutions that have paid to hear Osborne 's words of wisdom are , however , a rum old bunch . They include the aforementioned HSBC , which has paid vast fines in recent years for money-laundering offences in Mexico and Switzerland , and JP Morgan , which bunged the former Chancellor ? 141,752 for two speeches . This is the same JP Morgan that was last month fined ? 288 million by European regulators for interest-rate manipulation . Then there is Citi , who coughed up ? 85,396 for two Osborne speeches in November ( this week it was hit with a ? 23 million fine in the U.S. for mis-treating mortgage holders ) , and Aberdeen Asset Management , which spent ? 51,328 getting him to talk to investors two months ago ( and which not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Financial Conduct Authority for failing to properly protect client funds ) . Most curious of all , however , is a mysterious organisation called Palmex Derivatives that flew Osborne to New York in October , where it paid him ? 80,240.16 for giving a two-hour talk . This secretive firm -- whose operations are said to include financial and insurance activities , security broking and fund management -- has no website , no listed telephone number or email address and was , until December , registered to a detached brick home on a cul-de-sac in Southend-on-Sea . Now listed at a service address in Caterham , Surrey , it has just two directors , a 34-year-old ' futures and options broker ' called Robert Palmer and his domestic partner Kirsty Lewis , who describes her occupation on Companies House documents as ' home-maker ' . In its last published accounts -- up to January 2016 -- Palmex listed assets of a mere ? 54,598 , so hiring the former Chancellor appears to represent a huge investment for such an apparently small firm . And there is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ forged with his new employer , BlackRock , while his day-job was running the British economy . And there is the intimate nature of the relationship Osborne appears to have forged with his new employer , BlackRock , while his day-job was running the British economy I have established that their first collaboration dates to 2012 , when the then Chancellor used his annual Mansion House speech to recall how he 'd recently ' attended the opening of impressive new headquarters for international firms such as UBS and BlackRock ' in London . In 2013 , he courted the firm 's head of Asian Operations , Mark McCombe , for the job of chief executive of the taxpayer-owned RBS ( only for McCombe to decide that he was n't interested ) , before hiring advisers from BlackRock to assess the merits of creating a unit at RBS designed to divest the toxic assets the bank was burdened with after the financial crisis . The following summer , the firm repaid the favour , handing a PR coup to Osborne by launching a ' UK Tax Transparent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a more attractive place to domicile investments . ' Osborne said he wanted to make the UK a more appropriate domicile for asset managers and financial business full stop , ' said BlackRock . ' And this is about giving investors as efficient a vehicle as possible . ' Then came political favours . In 2014 , BlackRock , which has hundreds of employees in Scotland , dutifully campaigned against independence ahead of the referendum that year . Shortly before the 2015 General Election , meanwhile , BlackRock warned of the risk of Ed Miliband being elected Prime Minister under a governing coalition with the SNP , saying : ' Imagine a similar situation in Spain if the central government were dependent on Basque or Catalan separatists . ' Polling day in May 2015 brought news stories , saying : ' BlackRock has warned that Labour 's plans for a slower pace of deficit reduction could " bring forward the timing of interest rate hikes " . ' In response , Osborne , then Chancellor , said : ' This is a stark warning to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The following month , he attended the secretive Bilderberg Conference -- which brings together heads of state and power-brokers from around the world -- along with BlackRock 's vice-chairman , Swiss banker Philipp Hildebrand . It was just a few months later , in November 2015 , that Osborne 's Old Etonian chief-of-staff , Rupert Harrison , took a job with BlackRock , as a strategist on a six-figure salary . The two men had worked extremely closely together , so much so that at Mr Harrison 's leaving party , Osborne joked : ' It has been an honour to play a role in the Harrison chancellorship . ' In its letter of approval for Rupert Harrison taking a role at BlackRock , the Acoba committee , which is supposed to guard the ' revolving door ' between the public and private sector , said there was no conflict of interest as Mr Harrison 's work at the Treasury ' did not specifically relate to asset management ' . B ut it made no mention of how he had direct involvement with BlackRock during his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ firm 's executives in March 2013 and April 2014 . It also emerged that pension freedoms introduced by Osborne in his March 2014 Budget had benefited the firm . Intriguingly , Rupert Harrison has been credited as the ' architect ' of the changes . Indeed , after recruiting the 38-year-old , BlackRock boasted of his experience in shaping pensions reform . For all that , perhaps the issue which bound the Chancellor most intimately to BlackRock was the EU referendum -- or , more specifically , Project Fear , that concerted effort by the Establishment to scare the electorate into voting Remain . In this , BlackRock played a curiously prominent role . In October 2015 , for example , its head of government affairs and public policy in Europe , Joanna Cound , said a Brexit vote might prompt the firm to leave London ( strangely , that has n't yet happened ) . March 2016 saw it issue a research note claiming Brexit would cause a currency crisis and create higher inflation and more unemployment . ( In fact , unemployment has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a decade . ) In July , meanwhile , BlackRock 's chief investment officer claimed the UK would fall into recession in the coming year .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'booted out of Downing Street' does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate and does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a physical removal from a location (Downing Street) without the involvement of a causee participating in an event described by a VP[-ing] predicate.

Only last week , just six months after being booted out of Downing Street , the former Chancellor popped up at the epic billionaires ' schmooze-fest that is the World Economic Forum in Davos , Switzerland . Taking time out from representing his 65,200 constituents , he gave a speech to 20 of HSBC 's top clients , earning a reported ' high five-figure ' fee . What a glamorous and lucrative life the MP for Tatton , George Gideon Oliver Osborne , is leading from the back benches Osborne also found time to hit the party circuit ( wearing a navy pullover under his suit and a pair of trainers ) , posing for a chummy group photo with George and Amal Clooney and former Vanity Fair editor Tina Brown at a charity bash . He then headed off to PR impresario Matthew Freud 's star-studded soiree at the art nouveau Schatzalp Hotel , where he rubbed shoulders with Microsoft billionaire Bill Gates . It goes without saying that this former Bullingdon Club member -- educated at one of Britain 's leading public schools -- feels at his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ grates on Osborne that so many people in Davos are considerably richer than he is , then he will have taken particular satisfaction in his latest foray into the commercial world . Slipped out last Friday , as the world was gripped by the inauguration of U.S. President Trump , was the announcement that Osborne , who is paid ? 75,000-a-year to fulfil his duties as an MP , will be working one day a week as an adviser to the vast American finance firm , BlackRock . This position will add around ? 200,000 a year to the household income at the ? 4million Notting Hill home he shares with wife Frances and their two young children . Yet , it has also reignited the long-standing , and increasingly furious , public debate about the grubby ' revolving door ' between government and the private sector . Since Tony Blair left Downing Street and began lobbying for a mixture of wealthy corporations and dodgy dictators , it has seemingly become almost automatic for ex-Cabinet Ministers to cash in by using the experience they gained in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is theoretically regulated by Acoba , a Whitehall appointments watchdog . Yet in the past eight years , it has not attempted to stop one single civil servant or politician from taking up a job . The Mail this week revealed that Osborne 's new role at BlackRock was waved through despite the fact that he 'd met executives from the finance giant five times during his last two years at the Treasury . Only last week , just six months after being booted out of Downing Street , the former Chancellor popped up at the epic billionaires ' schmooze-fest that is the World Economic Forum in Davos , Switzerland Even without this latest scandalous twist about BlackRock , which has sparked calls for a complete revamp of Parliamentary rules , there can be few dethroned senior politicians who have been quite so shameless and proactive as Osborne in their pursuit of a fast buck . His dash for cash began a mere four weeks after being sacked , when he signed up to an American speaking agency called the Washington Speakers ' Bureau . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's greatest minds ' -- including those noted intellectuals Tony Blair , Alastair Campbell , George W. Bush , the former Alaska governor Sarah Palin and the magician David Blaine -- and has already helped Osborne earn ? 628,000 and counting since he left the Treasury . Some of the financial institutions that have paid to hear Osborne 's words of wisdom are , however , a rum old bunch . They include the aforementioned HSBC , which has paid vast fines in recent years for money-laundering offences in Mexico and Switzerland , and JP Morgan , which bunged the former Chancellor ? 141,752 for two speeches . This is the same JP Morgan that was last month fined ? 288 million by European regulators for interest-rate manipulation . Then there is Citi , who coughed up ? 85,396 for two Osborne speeches in November ( this week it was hit with a ? 23 million fine in the U.S. for mis-treating mortgage holders ) , and Aberdeen Asset Management , which spent ? 51,328 getting him to talk to investors two months ago ( and which not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Financial Conduct Authority for failing to properly protect client funds ) . Most curious of all , however , is a mysterious organisation called Palmex Derivatives that flew Osborne to New York in October , where it paid him ? 80,240.16 for giving a two-hour talk . This secretive firm -- whose operations are said to include financial and insurance activities , security broking and fund management -- has no website , no listed telephone number or email address and was , until December , registered to a detached brick home on a cul-de-sac in Southend-on-Sea . Now listed at a service address in Caterham , Surrey , it has just two directors , a 34-year-old ' futures and options broker ' called Robert Palmer and his domestic partner Kirsty Lewis , who describes her occupation on Companies House documents as ' home-maker ' . In its last published accounts -- up to January 2016 -- Palmex listed assets of a mere ? 54,598 , so hiring the former Chancellor appears to represent a huge investment for such an apparently small firm . And there is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ forged with his new employer , BlackRock , while his day-job was running the British economy . And there is the intimate nature of the relationship Osborne appears to have forged with his new employer , BlackRock , while his day-job was running the British economy I have established that their first collaboration dates to 2012 , when the then Chancellor used his annual Mansion House speech to recall how he 'd recently ' attended the opening of impressive new headquarters for international firms such as UBS and BlackRock ' in London . In 2013 , he courted the firm 's head of Asian Operations , Mark McCombe , for the job of chief executive of the taxpayer-owned RBS ( only for McCombe to decide that he was n't interested ) , before hiring advisers from BlackRock to assess the merits of creating a unit at RBS designed to divest the toxic assets the bank was burdened with after the financial crisis . The following summer , the firm repaid the favour , handing a PR coup to Osborne by launching a ' UK Tax Transparent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a more attractive place to domicile investments . ' Osborne said he wanted to make the UK a more appropriate domicile for asset managers and financial business full stop , ' said BlackRock . ' And this is about giving investors as efficient a vehicle as possible . ' Then came political favours . In 2014 , BlackRock , which has hundreds of employees in Scotland , dutifully campaigned against independence ahead of the referendum that year . Shortly before the 2015 General Election , meanwhile , BlackRock warned of the risk of Ed Miliband being elected Prime Minister under a governing coalition with the SNP , saying : ' Imagine a similar situation in Spain if the central government were dependent on Basque or Catalan separatists . ' Polling day in May 2015 brought news stories , saying : ' BlackRock has warned that Labour 's plans for a slower pace of deficit reduction could " bring forward the timing of interest rate hikes " . ' In response , Osborne , then Chancellor , said : ' This is a stark warning to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The following month , he attended the secretive Bilderberg Conference -- which brings together heads of state and power-brokers from around the world -- along with BlackRock 's vice-chairman , Swiss banker Philipp Hildebrand . It was just a few months later , in November 2015 , that Osborne 's Old Etonian chief-of-staff , Rupert Harrison , took a job with BlackRock , as a strategist on a six-figure salary . The two men had worked extremely closely together , so much so that at Mr Harrison 's leaving party , Osborne joked : ' It has been an honour to play a role in the Harrison chancellorship . ' In its letter of approval for Rupert Harrison taking a role at BlackRock , the Acoba committee , which is supposed to guard the ' revolving door ' between the public and private sector , said there was no conflict of interest as Mr Harrison 's work at the Treasury ' did not specifically relate to asset management ' . B ut it made no mention of how he had direct involvement with BlackRock during his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ firm 's executives in March 2013 and April 2014 . It also emerged that pension freedoms introduced by Osborne in his March 2014 Budget had benefited the firm . Intriguingly , Rupert Harrison has been credited as the ' architect ' of the changes . Indeed , after recruiting the 38-year-old , BlackRock boasted of his experience in shaping pensions reform . For all that , perhaps the issue which bound the Chancellor most intimately to BlackRock was the EU referendum -- or , more specifically , Project Fear , that concerted effort by the Establishment to scare the electorate into voting Remain . In this , BlackRock played a curiously prominent role . In October 2015 , for example , its head of government affairs and public policy in Europe , Joanna Cound , said a Brexit vote might prompt the firm to leave London ( strangely , that has n't yet happened ) . March 2016 saw it issue a research note claiming Brexit would cause a currency crisis and create higher inflation and more unemployment . ( In fact , unemployment has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a decade . ) In July , meanwhile , BlackRock 's chief investment officer claimed the UK would fall into recession in the coming year . We are , of course , still waiting for any such turn of events . Supporters of Osborne may argue that he 's got as much right to earn a living as anyone else . However , the extent of these links to BlackRock -- which were all , remember , forged when he was in high office , on the public payroll -- will only anger critics who believe the bucket-loads of cash thrown at former ministers by the banking industry has created a disincentive for politicians to challenge ' big finance ' while in government .

White House chief of staff Reince Priebus denied on Sunday that Donald Trump had removed two top defense officials from regular seats on the National Security Council in a reshuffle that expanded the influence of senior adviser Steve Bannon . On Saturday , Trump signed a memorandum that gave Bannon a seat on the " principals committee " of cabinet members who shape US foreign and defense policy . The memo also relegated the director of national intelligence and the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff , two of Washington 's highest defense officials , off the principals committee . Instead , the memo said , the chairman and the director would attend only meetings " where issues pertaining to their responsibilities and expertise are to be discussed " . On Sunday , Priebus said the defense chiefs would in fact be invited to all meetings . " They 're included as attendees any time that they want to be included , " he told NBC 's Meet The Press . Former defense secretary Robert Gates , who served both Republican and Democratic presidents , told ABC 's This Week on Sunday that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mistake " . " Under the law , only two statutory advisers to the National Security Council and that 's the director of central intelligence , or the DNI , and the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff , " Gates said . " I think pushing them out of the National Security Council meetings , except when their specific issues are at stake , is a big mistake . " They both bring a perspective and judgment and experience to bear that every president , whether they like it or not , finds useful . " Susan Rice , who served as Barack Obama 's national security adviser , similarly expressed shock at the reorganization of the NSC . Rice tweeted that it was " stone cold crazy " to treat the chairman and director as " after thoughts " . " Who needs military advice or ( intelligence ) to make policy on Isis , Syria , Afghanistan , DPRK ? " she tweeted . " And CIA ? ? Cut out of everything ? " She added that during Obama @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as it appeared the Trump White House was ready to allow Mike Pence to do so . Bannon has drawn controversy for his role as the publisher of Breitbart , a website that has run racist and misogynistic articles . Before taking over the site , Bannon was a Goldman Sachs executive and early investor in the sitcom Seinfeld . He joined Trump 's campaign as chief executive after the ouster of Paul Manafort , a former lobbyist who quit amid scrutiny of past work for pro-Kremlin politicians in Ukraine . Bannon has described himself as an " economic nationalist " and said he found inspiration in the works of Nazi propagandist Leni Riefenstahl . In a rare interview last week , he told the New York Times that he considers the press " the opposition " and said it " should keep its mouth shut " . On Sunday White House press secretary Sean Spicer said Bannon , who has no experience in government , was qualified by dint of his seven-year service in the navy in the late 1970s and early 1980s . " He is a former naval officer , " Spicer told ABC . " He 's got a tremendous understanding of the world and the geopolitical landscape that we have now . " Having the chief strategist for the president in those meetings who has a significant military background , " Spicer said , " to help make -- guide what the president 's final analysis is going to be is crucial . " Spicer said Rice 's criticism was " inappropriate " and that Trump receives " plenty of information " from the chairman of the joint chiefs . The reorganization , he said , was meant to " modernize " the council and make it " less bureaucratic and more focused on providing the president with the intelligence he needs " . Like Jared Kushner , Trump 's son-in-law , Bannon was appointed to a White House position that does not require Senate confirmation . On Saturday , Bannon and Kushner sat in on several phone calls between the president and foreign leaders , including calls with Russian president Vladimir Putin and German @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one of a handful of Democrats to criticize the reorganization , writing on Twitter : " Chairman of the joint chiefs out , former head of white nationalist website , in . " " With Bannon at the table for nat sec decisions , we can expect more politically motivated discriminatory actions like we saw last week , " he continued , alluding to the president 's order to ban travel from seven predominantly Muslim countries . |

He said : " Tories salivate at the thought of becoming a tax haven like Singapore . But the poorest will be the ones to suffer and many of them are in my constituency .

She criticises the way May has moved towards what she calls an extreme Brexit and the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , was one of several Tory MPs who campaigned to remain but will vote for the bill saying that 's what true democrats will do . Ed Vaizey , who was a minister under David Cameron , made one of the most outspoken and angry speeches . The MP railed against the government for sneaking out the announcement that Britain will pull out of the European nuclear research agency Euratom in the notes accompanying the bill without telling any local MPs or the agency 's staff . He 's also " sick and tired " of being branded as unpatriotic and being against the will of the people for wanting parliament to have more of a say in negotiations . Hywel Williams said that businesses are already pulling out of investing in Wales and confidence is low . " We can not afford the luxury of time and wait to see what deals we can strike , " he stressed . Steve Baker had a warning for if the bill was n't passed they would " suffer the kind of political implosion in this country which we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tonight . We 'll be back tomorrow so you can follow the rest of the debate ahead of the vote . Thanks so much for joining us today and for all your comments . Sorry I have n't been able to directly respond . Several Labour MPs have now said they will defy party orders not to block Theresa May from starting the Brexit process , amid criticism of the government 's approach . Opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn may find a few surprises in the list of those planning to vote against the bill . Shadow Brexit secretary Keir Starmer led the way followed by shadow foreign minister Catherine West who said she felt not voting for the bill 's second reading is the " only way to make the Government listen " to her concerns .

The Plaid Cymru MP says no matter how many special relationships May " scrapes " or deals she does , we 're not going to get as good a deal as the single market can offer . Businesses are already pulling out of investing in Wales and confidence is low . " We can not afford the luxury of time and wait to see what deals we can strike , " he says .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pulling out of investing in Wales' does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes businesses ceasing to invest in Wales, which is a different construction.

Rolling coverage of the day 's political developments as they happen , including the first day of the Commons debate on the European Union ( notification of withdrawal ) bill , allowing the government to trigger article 50 Nicola Slawson The debate has now ended for the night after nearly 12 hours of talking . It will continue tomorrow . Here 's a summary of tonight 's speeches : David Lammy , who will be voting against the bill , made one of the evening 's most powerful speeches and quoted both Enoch Powell and Winston Churchill . He said : " Tories salivate at the thought of becoming a tax haven like Singapore . But the poorest will be the ones to suffer and many of them are in my constituency .

The MP railed against the government for sneaking out the announcement that Britain will pull out of the European nuclear research agency Euratom in the notes accompanying the bill without telling any local MPs or the agency 's staff . He 's also " sick and tired " of being branded as unpatriotic and being against the will of the people for wanting parliament to have more of a say in negotiations .

Several Labour MPs have now said they will defy party orders not to block Theresa May from starting the Brexit process , amid criticism of the government 's approach . Opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn may find a few surprises in the list of those planning to vote against the bill . Shadow Brexit secretary Keir Starmer led the way followed by shadow foreign minister Catherine West who said she felt not voting for the bill 's second reading is the " only way to make the Government listen " to her concerns .

The Plaid Cymru MP says no matter how many special relationships May " scrapes " or deals she does , we 're not going to get as good a deal as the single market can offer . Businesses are already pulling out of investing in Wales and confidence is low . " We can not afford the luxury of time and wait to see what deals we can strike , " he says .

The Brexit referendum result was a political earthquake , the Tory leadership race was not without a frisson of excitement . Then the removal men arrived . David Cameron moved out of Downing Street , Theresa May moved in . Larry the cat was decreed to be a civil servant and stayed put . Throughout , the machinery of government has worked smoothly . Using a motoring analogy , Whitehall has resembled a Jaguar purring effortlessly along the motorway , coping admirably with some pretty large potholes , from tricky Brexit negotiations to a plunging pound . Alas the same is not the case over here in the United States . Washington has , during the the early days of the Trump administration , resembled a crudely customised pickup truck with a chassis slapped onto a set of monster wheels .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves an intransitive verb 'comes' with no NP object, and the second predicate 'getting the best from myself I possibly can' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

For starters , Brown is the only specialist full-back in the narrowed-down squad named by Jones last night for England 's opening game of the Six Nations against France , so he does not need to be the sharpest tool in the box to work out he will be named in the starting line-up tomorrow . But maintaining motivation levels for Brown will never be an issue whatever the circumstances - they are permanently set on the red line . While there may be a temptation with other players who have a guaranteed spot to rest easy , England 's Mr Angry is simply not wired that way . He may have reached 55 caps , he may be the only candidate for the No15 jersey , but at 31 he is as ferociously determined heading into the championship as when he made his England debut 10 years ago . GETTY @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he will select to face France " For me the competition 's in my head . I 'm not the kind of player that gets complacent . I 'm massively competitive so it does n't matter if there are 10 full-backs in camp or just myself , " he said . " I 'm always looking to get better . That 's why coaches like me as a player . I 'm a driven person . I 'll push myself until the day I no longer play . I 'm just carrying on the way I have been for however many years . " For me it 's harder to switch off . Even in off-season I think I 'm being lazy if I 'm not doing something . I 'm always thinking about my rugby and what I need to do , what I should be doing , what I ought to be doing ; what Eddie is thinking , what the coaches are thinking . It 's always going on in my head . " I think that 's good , it keeps me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what I want to achieve . " I guess it can be exhausting but it goes back to loving what you do and I do love what I do . For me , it 's the best job in the world and the enjoyment comes out of getting the best from myself I possibly can . I would n't change the way I am for the world . " GETTY Brown taking a catch during an England training session There have been many more naturally talented full-backs - some of whom will play against him in this championship - but Brown bridges the gap with a competitive streak as wide as the Nile . It invades his every moment . The England squad have recently started training their eyes with vision coach Sherylle Calder in an attempt , among other things , to improve depth perception and spatial awareness . The computer drills , which involve sifting shapes and numbers in reaction and memory tests , are conducted alone but Brown is first to the results list . " There 's a leaderboard @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 14 backs . I 'll start there and try and get better , " he said . " Alex Lozowski was top last week ; Ben Te'o very much bottom . I enjoy it when he 's bottom of the list . He hates it . That 's the best bit . He does n't like getting hammered by anyone . It 's always good fun when he 's at the bottom . " With Brown , it is always about the contest . Sun , March 20 , 2016 Express Sport brings you all the best pictures from the 2016 Six Nations Championship , where England achieved their first Grand Slam since 2003 He was shaped by struggle . Growing up in Hampshire , he did not attend a rugby-playing school and had to leapfrog the silver spoons to make the England age group side . When he broke into the Harlequins first team , his first taste of senior club rugby for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the Championship . And with England , he suffered worse than most when the World Cup went pear-shaped . He could not sleep properly for a week afterwards . It was instructive to observe Brown in the aftermath of the exit . As the flak was flying for captain and coach , he was the one telling his teammates they each had to look at themselves because not one of them was fit to make a World XV . How many are now ? If you listen to Jones , none still , but as a collective there is a relentlessness to their march . Unbeaten in 15 months , England have seemingly forgotten how to lose . With such a record comes the danger of complacency but if they need a security guard to keep it out , they have the ideal man on hand . " If one person was to get complacent that would be stamped out very quickly , " said Brown . " We know what it looks like , we know what can happen if it comes in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ very much on that . That will not be accepted in this group so I do n't think there 's any danger of that .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'taking pleasure out of shooting them' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes someone deriving pleasure from an activity, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

HORROR : Twelve of the Queen 's swans have been shot by snipers in the shadow of Windsor Castle Two of the stricken majestic birds which belong to the Crown have had to be put to sleep by vets and the other 10 have suffered " life changing injuries " as these photographs and x-rays show . Public revulsion in the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead has led to locals joining police on the banks of the River Thames to try and catch the person or gang behind the shootings . Official police signs have been put up on the riverbanks to state a police operation is in progress . SWAN SUPPORT KILLED : Two of the majestic birds have had to be put to sleep by vets All the swans were shot in the head and neck and those responsible are targeting them with a high powered air rifle and a catapult that fires steel ball bearings at the birds as big as marbles . " I can not understand what pleasure anyone could possibly get from shooting innocent swans " Wendy - Charity boss Furious Wendy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her team have been called in to deal with two sickening attacks in the last 10 days . In the first attack in Barry Avenue , Windsor , on Tuesday last week four swans were shot and one which was a cygnet had to be put to sleep as a ball bearing the size of a marble had shattered its skull . The three surviving swans all lost an eye and are recovering on drips after being rushed to the Alma Veterinary Surgery in the town where all were x-rayed and underwent operations to save them . SWAN SUPPORT SHOCKING : 10 swans have suffered ' life changing injuries ' On Saturday this week Swan Support were again called out after locals reported swans were in severe distress again in Barry Avenue and police confirmed eight more had been shot on the Thames . Alma Veterinary Hospital worked all day on the eight swans taken to them by Swan Support but one could not be saved as its injuries were so appalling and the other 7 were successfully operated on . Charity boss @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ anyone could possibly get from shooting innocent swans . They are peaceful and beautiful birds and they trust people who feed them . " All 12 of these swans are marked with bands on one leg so are Crown swans and belong to the Queen . I am sure her Majesty will be horrified to hear that someone is taking pleasure out of shooting them " . The Queen is the first monarch in centuries to have attended the annual Swan Upping ceremony which takes place over five days on the River Thames when all mute swans are marked for ownership . SWAN SUPPORT HUNT : Locals have joined the police in searching for the sniper Monday , 28th November 2016 WARNING GRAPHIC CONTENT : As part of our new ' STOP THE CRUELTY ' campaign we take a look at some of the most horrific cases animal cruelty . 1 / 29 PA Handout photo issued by the Orangutan Foundation of Aan , a critically-endangered orangutan who was blinded after being @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Aan is to undergo an operation that could restore her sight . Those caught and marked by the Queen 's swan uppers get a ring on one leg and belong to the Crown and those marked by uppers from the ancient City livery companies the Vintners ' and Dyers ' are ringed on both legs and belong to them . The Queen attended the ceremony in 2009 in her role as " Seigneur of the Swans " and is a passionate fan of the hundreds of swans that swim and nest on the River Thames beneath the Castle walls . A royal source said : " The Queen I am sure will be fully aware of this situation and as an animal lover will be very upset by it . It is our understanding the police are taking the matter very seriously indeed " . Charity boss Wendy continued : " Thames Valley Police have really raised their game and are determined to catch those responsible . I do not have the words to describe what I think of those shooting these swans . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Swan Support but they all have life changing injuries having lost eyes , had their beaks shattered , and suffered damage from pellets in the brain area . " The local people have really rallied around and have become our eyes and ears and we hope the full weight of the law will be brought down on these people in a way that matches the publics disgust " . SWAN SUPPORT ATTACK : The swans were attacked with a high powered air rifle and a catapult A month ago a swan was found battered to death in Barry Avenue and a month before three more swans were shot in the same place leading police and the charity to suspect it is the same person or gang . Local Alysia Hunt said on the local Facebook page where over 150 had voiced their horror : " There seems to be no end to the depravity of humans these days .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'John Snape' is the NP subject, 'rules' is V1, 'himself' is the NP object (a reflexive pronoun coreferential with the subject), and 'running for Worcester City manager's job' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. This fits the atypical type of NP object as described in the sixth property, where the NP object is reflexive and coreferential with the subject. The interpretation is prevention, as John Snape is preventing himself from running for the position.

STAND-IN boss John Snape insists he is " not interested " in becoming Worcester City manager and believes they need a " new face " at the helm . Snape will take temporary charge for City 's clash against Tamworth at Bromsgrove 's Victoria Ground today ( 3pm ) following the resignation of Carl Heeley . The former manager of the now defunct Bromsgrove Rovers says he is willing to " aid " the Vanarama National League North strugglers with the support of skipper Danny Jackman and veteran striker Lee Hughes . However , Snape ruled himself out of the running to be City 's new boss after his " best friend in football " Heeley ended his seven-year reign last weekend . " Danny and I will aid the team today with the help of Lee and we will see if we can beat Tamworth , " he said . " I think it needs a new face at the helm and I 'll be helping the club out in the short term until the board decide on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ first-team coach in July 2013 before being promoted to assistant manager in May last year after the departure of Matt Gardiner to Kidderminster Harriers . But Snape said he had gained further understanding of the workload Heeley had carried in the build-up to the Tamworth game . Heeley stepped down after admitting he was " tired " and wanting to spend more time with his family who he felt he was " neglecting " . " With Carl going I am not interested in the job , " said the ex-Hereford and Worcester midfielder . " He is my best friend in football . I have been at the club for four years and helped every year to rebuild the squad that has been picked apart . " I have still enjoyed working with some absolutely great characters on and off the pitch . " But I found out the amount of work Carl had been doing this week . I have had a really busy few days since he left . It has been very lonely . " Earlier this week , chairman @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interest " in the managerial vacancy with former City striker Mark Owen among the contenders for the job . " There will be new ideas once the chairman and the board meet and decide the future plan for the football club in the absence of Carl , " Snape added . Heeley 's exit also comes after a run of 10 league matches without a win , including a 3-0 defeat at local rivals Gloucester City last Saturday . But Snape said his players were determined to " put things right " when they take on seventh-placed Tamworth . " I still believe in all the players , " said Snape whose 18th-placed side lost 1-0 at their Midlands rivals in August . " But they have n't been good enough , especially last week . " It is a local derby which will add a bit of spice with Ellis Deeney , an ex-skipper at the club , coming to Bromsgrove .

The sentence 'They don't just come out of nothing.' does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object and a VP2[-ing] predicate, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of nothing' is a prepositional phrase, not a VP[-ing] predicate.

Assistant manager Chris Davies considered recent evidence when he assessed the challenge Celtic face against St Johnstone on Sunday . The in-form Hoops came out on top when the teams met at Parkhead just over a week ago thanks to a goal from recently returned defender Dedryck Boyata . Brendan Rodgers ' side are unbeaten in 28 domestic games since the start of the season and have won their last 18 Ladbrokes Premiership matches . The runaway league leaders look to extend that impressive run at McDiarmid Park against Tommy Wright 's fifth-placed Saints side , who were the last Scottish side to beat Celtic with a 2-1 win in Perth in the penultimate game of last season when Ronny Deila was in charge . With the most recent meeting still fresh in Davies ' mind -- as well as the 4-2 win at McDiarmid Park earlier in the season -- Rodgers ' right-hand man praised the Saints boss for getting the best out of his squad as he prepared for another tough encounter . " I think Tommy maximises the resources he has , " said Davies . " I think @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of quality in there and they can be a difficult team to play against . " We beat them at Celtic Park by a goal but we are away from home this time . " When we went there earlier in the season , we went ahead early in the game and they fought back . " That is what they have got , they have a real spirit about them and a mentality and that is an enormous part of being a good team . " Obviously we analysed the game we played against them and we have got some ideas for the game-plan for this game and we are expecting a difficult game . " Davies insists records are not the topic of discussion among the management team but insists the run of form is to be enjoyed . He said : " We can only control our own performances . " Every game is difficult and you have always got to savour the wins . " They do n't just come out of nothing . It is really important @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " |

This was supposed to be the worst Cameroon team in a generation . Now they are best in a generation , the first to win this tournament in 15 years . This is a feelgood triumph of the human spirit . Cameroon created nothing in the first half but in the second they were relentless and fully deserved to win . The captain Moukandjo , who played a huge part and created the equaliser , is in tears . Both the goals came from substitutes , Nkoulou and the hugely influential centre-forward Vincent Aboubakar . What a story ! Congratulations to Cameroon , commiserations to Egypt . Night ! 90+2 min It 's kicked off ! Fai is booked for a foul , then Warda has a shoving match with the keeper Ondoa , who was attempting to waste a bit of time . When it 's all settled , Egypt have a free-kick 25 yards from goal . This might be their last chance . Aboubakar abracadabrad that goal out of nothing . Siani drove a long pass to find him on the edge of the box , all on his own against three defenders @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it over the head of Gabr and then contorted his body to hit a bouncing volley across the motionless El Hadary and into the corner . 86 min For the first time in the second half , Cameroon have started to think about not losing the match rather than winning it . It 's human nature but they will regret it if they end up losing the game on penalties . 80 min " I think I agree with your theory about Arsenal achieving exactly what they should achieve , " says Matt Dony . " The true frustration , though , is that they should be in a position to achieve more in the first place . Ozil is ( sometimes ) one of the best players in the world in his position , Sanchez is the player Liverpool should have bought to replace Suarez , but they have settled for other average players . I dislike Wenger , but he is a great coach and he 's proven with those two he can attract top players @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ financially with anyone . They should have a whole team of world-beaters . As a club , they 've quietly accepted Champions League qualification as a goal . " It 's a really interesting subject . I see your point . They would get less criticism if they finished seventh one year and third the next , but finishing top four every season creates an expectation of improvement . Nobody has time for equilibrium any more , in football or life . We 're addicted to rollercoasters . 79 min Bassogog , just outside the area on the left , plays a superb disguised pass across the box to find Moukandjo in lots of space . He takes the shot first time but the ball bounces awkwardly and it flies high and wide . He might have had time to take a touch , on reflection . 77 min Djoum breaks up an Egypt attack and marches 60 yards to the edge of the area . It 's a great run . Everyone knows he should now pass the ball , but his subconscious is screaming " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ WORLDIE " . He has a go , and it dribbles miserably wide . 69 min Hegazy heads behind for another Cameroon corner . The Egypt defence is under almost relentless pressure at the moment . Moukandjo 's near-post corner finds the head of Nkoulou inside the six-yard box but he ca n't leap high enough and heads over the top . That was a bit of a chance . 64 min Cameroon are in complete control at the moment . This is the problem with being quite so brazenly defensive ; it can be hard to adjust your approach if you do concede an equaliser . It happened a few times to Sven-Goran Eriksson 's England . The goal came from the substitute centre-back Nkoulou ! A corner was half-cleared and fed back out to Moukandjo on the left . With no pace on the ball he coaxed a superb dipping cross towards the six-yard line , where Nkoulou towered above Hegazy to plant a downward header into the corner . El Hadary dived posthumously ; he would n't have got there anyway . There was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ header , albeit without the controversy and the concussion . 53 min " The Spice Boys similarity works up to a point ( fun , usually , to watch , but ultimately ineffective ) , but this Arsenal is much less homogeneously nearly-good , " says Charles Antaki . " Some players are entertaining & skilful and would have fitted into that Liverpool team ( say , Bellerin ) or would match one or two of the thick-ear ones ( say Xhaka for Ruddock ) . But S ? nchez and Ozil are surely in a class distinct from , say , Fowler or McManaman . On the other hand , they seem to be enjoying life a lot , lot less . " I 'm not sure they are , certainly not relative in this league and relative to the rest of the league . At Premier League level , Fowler from 1994-97 was astonishing . Interesting subject though . Peep peep ! Egypt are 45 minutes away from another Afcon triumph thanks to Mohamed Elneny 's clever/fortunate ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ okay half and Cameroon have had plenty of the ball . The worry for them is that they have n't look like getting past this terrific Egypt defence . See you in 10 minutes for the second half . 34 min The old man El Hadary comes a long way out of goal and makes a mess of a simple punch . The ball falls to Bassogog , who works the space for a shot on the right-hand side of the box and then smashes it high and wide . It was a half-chance at best . 30 min Teikeu looks like he wo n't be able to continue . That 's really sad . He is lying on his back , with his hand on his groin . He 's asking for a few more minutes from the medical staff but I do n't think he 's going to get them . I have a half-baked theory about Arsenal : they are the new Spice Boys . Not in terms of lifestyle and hilariously named horses , but because they are perceived as irritating underachivers when @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ season is about par , possibly better than par , for the players they have . They are a very good football team , but they just are n't that good . If they were worse , they would receive less criticism . 23 min Ondoa was crouching and therefore could n't spring to save the shot . It 's hard to know for certain whether Elneny spotted this , but if he did it was a clever goal . Either way it was a nice move , with a couple of classy touches from Salah in the build-up . Elneny gives Egypt the lead from a tight angle . Salah on the right played an excellent angled pass to find him in space in the box . There was n't much on , so he decided to sidefoot a rising shot that beat Ondoa at the near post . Ondoa should probably have done better ; Egypt will not give a solitary one about that . 14 min Bassogog slips away from Elneny but then batters a shot high over the bar from long-range . I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shoot-out at around 9.40pm ... but this has n't been great so far . 9 min It 's all Egypt . This could be a long night for Cameroon playing like this , although 0-0 draws are n't exactly without precedent in Afcon finals : four of the last eight have gone to penalty shoot-outs without a goal being scored . 2 min El Said has a big early chance for Cameroon ! After some neat one-touch football , Salah ushered him into the box with a deft touch past the left-back Oyongo . As defenders converged El Said stuck a low first-time shot across goal that was well saved by the plunging Ondoa . " Just a word on the referee Janny Sikazwe tonight , " says Harry Middleton , generously doing my job for me . " The CAF referee committee have assigned the final to Janny Sikazwe from Zambia . He has shown a big development in the last couple of years , in 2015 at his third AFCON he was appointed for the first time into the knockout round . If you do @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , of the FIFA Club World Cup in Japan . Overall he showed a good performance showing a modern but unobtrusive style , however he was memorable for reaching into his pocket but not cautioning for the second time Sergio Ramos .

Personally I would rather have seen Daniel Bennett referee tonight ( he is the fourth official ) , but regional politics certainly helped Sikazwe , not to say he is n't a good referee . He is now pretty much certain to go to the next World Cup in Russia . The assistants tonight are Jerson Dos Santos ( Angola ) and Aden Marwa Range ( Kenya ) . As aforementioned Daniel Bennett ( South Africa ) will act as Fourth Official . Good luck to the team tonight ! " You never get a second chance to make a last impression . The final of a major tournament has a big impact on how history judges that tournament . That @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Nations , whose recent finals have been so tedious as to make the World Cup equivalents feel like orgies of entertainment by comparison . The last eight Afcon finals have produced seven goals , four 0-0 draws and 471,941,865 unplanned naps from those watching on the sofa . This tournament really needs a good final , because it has not been the best . At least not in terms of basic entertainment . It has produced some cracking stories , however -- none better than Cameroon , whose inexperienced team have marched unexpectedly to the final . So many players pulled out beforehand that you half expected Roger Milla to unhang his boots one last time at the age of 38 . They were described the worst Cameroon team in a generation . And now , after beating the mighty Senegal and Ghana , they are in the final . Egypt 's is a pretty good story too .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'rule him out of playing some part in the remainder of the tournament' involves 'rule out' as a phrasal verb followed by a gerund, but it does not involve a causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action in the way described by the transitive out of -ing construction. Additionally, there is no clear movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the construction.

George Kruis will not play any part in the remainder of the Six Nations after England confirmed he has been ruled out for three months , with the knee injury he picked up in training this week requiring surgery that will leave him fighting to prove his fitness for the British and Irish Lions tour . Kruis suffered a knee ligament injury last Tuesday during a training session with the England squad , and while he was ruled out of the weekend 's Six Nations opener , head coach Eddie Jones would not rule him out of playing some part in the remainder of the tournament . Those hopes have been dashed though after England named a 32-man squad that will train from Monday in preparation for next Saturday 's trip to Wales , with news of Kruis ' planned knee surgery confirmed . " George Kruis will undergo surgery on Tuesday 7 February for a knee ligament injury sustained in training earlier in the week , " read the squad update . " It is expected that the second row will require a 10-12 week rehabilitation period . " The injury puts Kruis @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Lions squad to tour New Zealand in serious doubt as he will not complete his rehabilitation until around 16 April at the earliest , with Gatland due to name his Lions squad three days later . If Kruis misses the full 12 weeks , he will return after Gatland 's squad announcement and would need the New Zealander to take a risk on his selection in the hope that he proves his fitness , with Saracens ' final Premiership match and any post-season matches the only chance to get some game time under his belt . Should Saracens repeat their double-feat of last season and reach both the Premiership and European Champions Cup finals , Kruis would likely have three matches to prove he is up to speed ahead of the 10-match tour . With the 26-year-old out for the rest of the tournament , Jones will have to persist with the combination of Joe Launchbury and Courtney Lawes , who started the 19-16 victory over France on Saturday . Jones also has the option of moving Kruis ' Saracens teammatae , Maro Itoje , back to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Bleus , although keeping Itoje in the back-row looks to be Jones 's preferred plan . There was also good news on the injury front for England and Saracens though as the camp confirmed that Mako Vunipola will step up his recovery from a knee ligament injury by joining the 32-man squad this week . The player of the 2016 Six Nation picked up in 2017 where he left off . Two tries against Ireland , the second a sublime dummy and turn of speed , left the Irish scratching their heads , and he has the X-factor that means Scotland can legitimately challenge for the championship .

Set-up the try for centre partner Jonathan Davies , and also impressed in defence . The versatile back is yet to look out of place in Eddie Jones 's set-up and another astute performance showed why he got the nod over Jack Nowell this week . Moved to centre for the closing stages to see out the game , and was unlucky not to score as only strong defensive work from Noa Nakaitaci prevented him from going in at the corner .

In 2012 the landscape of British Boxing changed dramatically when Eddie Hearn of Matchroom got an exclusive deal with Sky . Off the back of this a new dedicated boxing channel was formed by Frank Warren called Boxnation . Fast forward five years and the changes look to be even more dramatic this time round . ITV have announced a deal with the Eubanks/Richard Poxon , and Sanigar/Cyclone are running successful events on Spike/Channel 5 , yet neither of those seems to have as big an impact as Warrens deal with BT will . Since 2012 Matchroom have been snapping up boxers that were built up by Frank Warren , Ricky Hatton , Frank Maloney and various small hall promoters as well as amateur GB standouts . Boxers would gravitate towards Matchroom as they knew that with the backing of Sky it meant more money , exposure and recognition . Matchroom remain exclusively contracted to Sky and are committed to running 20 shows a year with four or more of those being a box office show , shows littered with International , and Silver @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the dance seems to have been discontinued in favour of more traditional shows . The model that they are following is a good one for a TV audience , three attractive bouts per show with a supporting undercard . Matchroom have been involved in boxing for many years , but their recent resurgence was initially spurred on by the Prizefighter format . They followed this up by signing established fighters from rival promoters before building shows around them . Over time more and more fighters moved over to Matchroom until we saw the dominant force we have today . They have used the same mindset they have used with darts and tried to attract the all so important casual audience by making an event out of boxing shows . From the press conferences , to the weigh-in events and to the speakers blaring out Sweet Caroline just before the main event , Matchroom have mastered the formula of how to create a big feel event . At a time when promoters would give generic interviews , Hearn was refreshing with his laid back attitude in Youtube interviews @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ likely as recognisable as many of the fighters he promotes . This year looks to be a big year once again for them as they have Anthony Crolla set to battle Jorge Linares , Haye vs Bellew on Box Office plus Joshua vs Klitshko , also on Box Office . They could have two further blockbuster box office fights if Haye and Joshua come through their encounters and if they can finally get Amir Khan and Khan Brook to agree terms . They will likely lean towards a box office bout later in the year headlined by Callum Smith against WBC Super middleweight titlist James Degale . On the other side of the boxing divide , Frank Warren looks set to make a splash on the scene again this year . The signing of double Olympic gold Nicola Adams will attract casual fans to watch the shows and that signing also signified a whole lot more . Warren 's recent BT deal is a statement of intent . The shows are headlined by competitive bouts involving huge tickets sellers such as Tommy Langford and Josh Warrington supported @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Although not on par with the star power of Sky shows , it is a teething process for Warren all over again and the BT audience needs to become familiar with these boxers . Paul Butler Vs Jamie Mcdonnell , a Liam Walsh World title bout , Joseph Parker-Hughie Fury , and a big Billy Joe Saunders fight ( possibly against Gennady Golovkin ) are all being mentioned . There is potential for it to go from a year of getting the audience familiarised to getting them firmly on board and that potential lies in the " gypsy king " Tyson Fury who is understood to be back in the gym training for a comeback . Fury was the undefeated lineal heavyweight title holder and had he not vacated his IBF title Joshua would not be a world title holder right now . The interest around his comeback could be built into a frenzy , and it would be a case of the rightful king coming back to reclaim his kingdom should he return in 2017 . Whether Fury is well enough to make him comeback will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ last two weeks Frank Warren has been aggressive in signing top amateurs such as Ekow Essuman , Sunny Edwards , Daniel Duboir , Troy Williamson , Sam Maxwell , Nicola Adams and more . He has also recently signed Tyrone Nurse , and Josh Warrington to add to his stable . On the surface this may seem as if he is building his stable to fill the dates , but the quality of his signings , along with their location points to much more . For example , Warrington sells out Leeds first direct arena on his own . His support is becoming Hatton like . Tyrone nurse is also from nearby and Nicola Adams is a Leeds girl . This will allow him to run shows there building fighters on the undercard as he pleases . Elsewhere ITV are experimenting with a box office format for Eubanks Jr IBO title fight and Channel 5 have two gifted fighters being fast tracked in Josh Taylor and Andrew Selby . Beneath that you have promoters without TV deals doing great things . VIP , Black Flash and Farrell Promotions @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ready to be ascended to the TV shows . Goodwin promotions are running great events at York Hall and Carl Greaves is running all over the country with one of his finer shows to date being on March 11 . Many other promoters are running shows up and down the country and without these outfits boxing would not be able to survive , let alone thrive . Based on the above British boxing is in a healthier state than it has been in years , with plenty of different avenues for a boxer to take to get TV exposure or make their way to the top . The signing of Nicola Adams truly represents the positives of this . Despite years of Warren speaking out against female boxing , Nicola Adams chose to sign with him in spite of this so his vision must be something that appeals to her . The boxers will benefit hugely from this changing landscape as there are so many more options available to them , additionally the true winner will be the fans as the promoters will surely up their game @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to outdo their rivals Share the post " Promoters , TV Deals and the changing landscape of British Boxing " Originally started out boxing amateur in a little gym in a small town in cardigan wales .

Arthur Mountford was rescued alive after an explosion at the colliery where he was working . But by the time his wife arrived to see him at hospital , he had lost his battle for life . The father-of-three , who had swapped working in the pots for the pits , was a victim of the explosion at Sneyd Colliery , Burslem , on New Year 's Day , 1942 . He was 32 years old .

The average retired household will spend an astonishing ? 420,500 in retirement . It 's a terrifying thought given how little most of us have set aside for retirement - and what a small fraction of this the state pension will stretch to , but where does the money go ?

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'priced out of having fun' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a state of being unable to afford something, which is not consistent with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

No , this one 's an animated spin-off from The Lego Movie and frankly it looks brilliant . So as it hits the cinemas on February 10 , we take a dip into the archives to look at some of his animated exploits from the last 50 years of crime-fighting fun . Remember how in the 1960s ' Batman TV series , the intro was animated ? This is basically a full-length version of that , only Mr Freeze is somehow less cartoon-like than he was when Arnold Schwarzenegger played him . It features all the usual kerpowing and kersplatting and stars Casey ' Shaggy from Scooby Doo ' Kasem as Robin . For some reason , this video features a weird Minecraft reference . The New Scooby Doo Movies saw everyone 's favourite cartoon dog ( apart from Snoopy ) team up with all manner of guest stars , from The Addams Family to Dick Van Dyke . Incidentally , The Dynamic Scooby-Doo Affair includes the line ' recorded @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not something to say while intoxicated. It 's Adam West , Burt Ward and a dazzling array of villains ! Although sadly not the Riddler , who was contracted to another series at the time . Other than that , this is nicely authentic and is marred only by the addition of an irritating sidekick . Memo to Warner : I know he 's in the comics , but Bat-Mite was not a good idea . Ever . Ah , real cartoons for real men . Riding high on the success of Tim Burton 's 1989 Batman movie ( it even features an outtake from Danny Elfman 's iconic score ) , this much-lauded series is viewed by many as the best animated version of the Caped Crusader that we 've got . Mark Hamill basically got a second career out of playing the Joker and Kevin Conroy does Batman so well , it 's difficult to imagine anyone else providing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , you could use it to mark a right angle . Well , this is ... different . Ditching Batman 's ' loner ' reputation in favour of a selection of occasionally bizarre team-ups , this series kept its tongue in its cheek and always had a joke up its sleeve . While it touched on darker themes such as death and loss , The Brave And The Bold is generally far more fun and lighthearted than many of its contemporaries -- as epitomised by this scene in which Batman splits into three separate personalities . ( Although I now want nachos . Anyone else want nachos ? ) In 1986 , writer Frank Miller ( Sin City ) produced one of the darkest , most influential Batman stories in the character 's history , The Dark Knight Returns , which saw an ageing Caped Crusader come reluctantly out of retirement to aid an impoverished Gotham City on the brink of disaster @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and a half decades , but it was worth the wait -- not least because it finally answers the ' who would win in a fight between Batman and Superman ? ' question years before Zack Snyder did . After a negative response from critics and audiences about the depiction of firearms , the producers toned down the realistic-looking guns , but it was too little , too late . Beware The Batman lasted only a single series and is now languishing at the back of the Batcave , next to all those VHS copies of Batman And Robin . Oh , that 's more like it -- the Caped Crusader gets a starring role in 2014 's The Lego Movie -- except he turns out to be a total dick . But we do n't care because he 's so much fun to watch , whether he 's throwing Batarangs at security buttons or pilfering the hyperdrive from the Millennium Falcon . The guy even gets his own theme song , which is , incidentally @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to see anywhere . Back in 1988 , not long after Frank Miller had finished The Dark Knight Returns , Alan Moore produced The Killing Joke -- a dark and disturbing tale of the Joker 's plot to push Commissioner Gordon into the arms of insanity . It was loved by pretty much everyone except Moore himself . The Killing Joke inspired pretty much everything that came after it -- although reaction to the eventual film was mixed , largely because of the notorious scene in which Batman has sex with Batgirl on a rooftop . Still , Mark Hamill 's back and the whole thing looks lovely . Adam West is pushing 90 these days , but that 's not going to stop him being Batman . The Caped Crusader 's been warped by a secret formula and has used a Replication Ray to clone himself , which is the sort of thing you do when you 're being manipulated by a band @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his senses , and , if he ca n't , can Robin and Alfred save the day ? This is ridiculous , but it does bring things nicely full circle -- close your eyes , and we could be back in 1966 again . |

I had been worried a few months after my wife died about many things : her family 's wellbeing , my own health and ability to survive it all , even the practical necessities of my work and managing the family finances . Most of all , though , I was worried about my daughter , Romy . She was only six when her mum finally succumbed to cancer after nine years . Bereavement just seemed too much for a young child . Too vast . Too complicated . A great weight on very small shoulders . Then there was the fact that Romy had always been quiet and self-contained -- inscrutable , undemonstrative . I worried that she was holding all her grief in , too tightly . I wanted to help her let it out but I was n't sure how . I had no experience of anything like this . I felt ill-equipped . I had spoken to some teachers at school , I had read some books on the subject , I knew some theory but still felt very inexpert , even that I was making things worse , forcing her into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ good dad when she needed it most . I tried to talk to her directly about grief but she mostly changed the subject . I tried being open with my own emotions , as if showing her how to grieve , giving her an example to follow by deliberately showing how very upset I was on certain occasions . Still she seemed implacable and did n't shed many tears . Then one day , when we were playing with some cardboard boxes in the hall , she expressed an interest in " making " Mummy . I did n't quite know what she meant till she put the largest of the boxes on top of a nearby chair and a smaller one on top of that . You could start to see a head and a body in outline , as if a person were sitting down . I got some cardboard tubes out of recycling and fixed them to the larger box with sticky tape . They looked like arms . I attached more cardboard tubes further down and suddenly the figure had legs . Romy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I cut a mouth out of the head with a bread knife . Before long , we had a new member of the household -- Cardboard Mummy . Light , adaptable and with a perfect square bottom that meant she could balance on any flat surface , we sat Cardboard Mummy at the table while we ate , brought her in the living room to watch TV with us and carried her upstairs to listen to Romy 's bedtime stories and sleep alongside her . She became a confidante , a constant companion and a comfortingly reliable presence . Cardboard Mummy was referred to , asked her opinions , and generally included in the conversation . Romy seemed happy and I was too . Something was happening here . Something was being expressed . It all felt positive , if mysterious , and that felt good . But I worried a little as well . Was I being a wacky , irresponsible , self-indulgent dad who should have been helping his only child face the reality of an awful situation instead of playing with cardboard ? Was I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of delusion instead of hard fact ? I spoke to a child psychologist who said it was not uncommon for children to build effigies or dolls , that it was a natural expression of loss and longing . The advice was to go along with it all , however strange or weird it might seem -- and I did , even if sometimes with a tight smile and a clenched jaw . As time passed , Romy grew more ambitious , wanting to take Cardboard Mummy out -- to the shops , to meet friends . Other parents seemed to become aware of Cardboard Mummy . She became a public figure . She travelled in the front seat of the car with the seat belt on . I liked the fact Romy seemed happy about all this but I found my own discomfort growing more as well . To me , it sometimes felt that our little domestic experiment was getting out of hand . As if something that should have been a family matter had been kidnapped by the world . I started to feel more and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Mostly it was concern about Romy 's own vulnerability . I worried about how the comments of others might affect her . And the more public Cardboard Mummy went , the more Romy might be exposed to such things . I felt a loss of parental control . Partly too , though , I have to admit it was my own self-consciousness . Seeing that look in a fellow parent 's eye . That momentary flash of disbelief that seemed to say " OK . Wow . Well ... a mummy made of cardboard . That 's ... er ... different ! " that made me wince . As if I were a bad parent , who should have been protecting his only child , not directing his own Hitchcock movie . Then one day , Romy wanted to take Cardboard Mummy to school for a show and tell . I agreed but was concerned about how it would go , my daughter with her strange Cardboard Mummy in front of an audience of six-year-olds . Kids can be brutal at that age , unflinchingly direct @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about their reactions . I imagined various hurtful comments and her returning home chastened and upset . Ready to retreat even further into the emotional shell from which she had only just started emerging . Yet when I arrived at school , I found it had been a triumph . As her teacher explained , Romy had brought Cardboard Mummy to the front of the class and talked about her mum dying and how sad she was . And how she chose the dress her mum wore in the coffin and a song for the funeral . All the things that I had worried were buried down , deep inside her and locked away for ever . Over the next few weeks and months , Cardboard Mummy seemed to become less important . She became tatty and dilapidated . After a while , we moved her into the attic where she remains . That day did n't mark the end of something but when I look back now , nearly 10 years on , I still think of its significance . A big occasion for a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of her grief suddenly found a voice . Bereavement is a lifetime 's project and as Romy gets older she will doubtless encounter many roadblocks on the way . Moments when she feels stuck , emotionally in chains . My hope is that she thinks back to that extraordinary time and finds strength in those memories and her own courage . In those dark moments when you worry about your child , maybe you should believe in them more and worry less . Trust them . They have their ways . Even at six . They are resourceful beyond their years . Instinctive . And in a way , brilliant . They use what they need . They are great survivors . Romy is now 15 . An intelligent , purposeful , mature young woman who is balanced , thoughtful and kind . She will always miss her mum but she is going to be fine . And a simple cardboard effigy , made from boxes and sticky tape , is one of the reasons why . * The Owl at the Window by Carl Gorham @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a copy for ? 12.74 , go to bookshop.theguardian.com or call the Guardian Bookshop on 0330 333 6846 .

Calls have been made to bring the maintenance of Gloucestershire 's roads and footways back under the control of the county council . At next week 's council meeting the leader of the Liberal Democrats , councillor Paul Hodgkinson ( Bourton and Northleach ) , will be calling on Conservative bosses to look at how the county 's highway services can be taken back in-house rather than extend the existing contract with Amey . Since April 2014 , Amey has taken responsibility for managing and maintaining Gloucestershire 's highway network , which includes more than 6,200 miles of roads , as well as providing winter maintenance services and delivering highway improvement schemes . The contract , which runs for five years with possible extensions up to eleven years , is currently being reviewed by the council 's highways commissioning team . Councillors are due to decide in the early summer whether to extend the contract for a further three years or to terminate it in 2018/19 . Amey 's performance over the years has been regularly criticised by both the Liberal Democrats and by parish councils and residents for missing targets for filling potholes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's roads out of the company 's hands . But the Tories have said the idea would cost residents millions of pounds and would mean less money for road repairs and more for bureaucracy . Mr Hodgkinson said many councils up and down the country are taking public services back in-house . " Right from the beginning of the Amey contract , we saw many so called ' teething troubles ' , but problems escalated . In 2015 , I called for the contract with Amey to be closely monitored and for financial penalties to be imposed if performance targets were not being consistently achieved in 2015/16 . " Again in June 2016 , I called for an urgent review of Amey after figures showed low satisfaction levels amongst both county and parish councillors across Gloucestershire . " The teething problems have become a nagging toothache requiring much needed treatment . We should not be railroaded into thinking that extending the contract with Amey or retendering and mobilising a new contract with another private contractor are our only options . " If Gloucestershire County @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ follow the example of Cumbria County Council , who made the same move back in 2011 . Mr Hodgkinson added : " I have serious misgivings in extending the contract with Amey and will therefore at next week 's council meeting be calling for us to ask council officers to work on the option of bringing our highways back in-house . Let 's take back control of our roads . " Due to the length of time it takes to re-tender the highways contract the decision to extend it needs to be taken between 18 and 24 months prior to the end of the five year period . Councillor Vernon Smith , Gloucestershire Count Council 's cabinet member for roads ( C , Tewkesbury East ) said : " The Liberal Democrats are calling for less money for tarmac and more for bureaucracy . This plan would cost Gloucestershire residents millions -- taking money out of repairing our roads , and putting it into the extra costs that come with employing hundreds more staff directly . " The Conservatives are putting an extra ? 6m into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Democrats would throw that away . It just goes to show why they left such a big backlog of road repairs the last time they were in charge . " |

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('British troops have been offered the chance to duck out of fighting on the front line'). It involves a prevention interpretation where the action of 'ducking out' prevents the troops from 'fighting on the front line'. The verb 'duck' can be classified under means to achieve a goal, specifically by means of avoiding or evading. The NP object 'British troops' is a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'fighting on the front line'. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

While the trial will save the MoD money in wages and bonuses to troops on the frontline , defence insiders insist it is intended to solve family issues such as troops spending too much time apart from their partners and children .

Thirty-four troops across the Armed forces are undergoing medical treatment to reassign their gender , a Freedom of Information request has revealed . Hannah Winterbourne , 27 , ( pictured ) became Britain 's first transgender officer after she began her transition in 2013 It is not known whether the troops are being treated at public expense or from their own pockets .

Captain Winterbourne , 29 , who had previously completed an operational tour of Afghanistan as a man , is now one of the leading officers in the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers .

Normally , only sailors aged up to 59 are considered for duty . But a shortage of personnel has led naval chiefs to appeal to mariners aged 60 and above to apply for key posts . Admirals have also been forced to waive rules which say that applicants for top jobs must have served in the Royal Navy in the past five years -- intended to ensure their skills are up to date .

Sailors paid off by the MoD as part of various redundancy programmes are also being invited to apply for jobs on the new aircraft carriers and across the Royal Navy fleet . The old sea dogs are being enticed with five-year contracts under the Royal Navy 's Full Time Reserve Service ( FTRS ) scheme . In 2015 , the Royal Navy asked the MoD to provide 4,000 additional personnel but only a few hundred sailors were brought in .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject (British troops) + V1 (have been offered) + NP object (the chance) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (fighting on the front line). It also fits the prevention interpretation, as the troops are being given the opportunity to avoid fighting on the front line. The verb 'offered' can be seen as a means to achieve a goal, fitting into the classification of verbs that appear in the V1 slot. The NP object 'the chance' is not a causee, but the context implies that the troops (causee) are being given a choice to avoid the action (fighting), which aligns with the atypical types of NP object allowed in the construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund, but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund, but lacks the necessary NP object that functions as a causee in the construction. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

British troops have been offered the chance to duck out of fighting on the front line and work a three-day week , The Mail on Sunday can reveal . Thousands of soldiers , sailors and airmen have been told they can avoid battlefield action under an astonishing scheme the Ministry of Defence admitted last night is intended to make the Armed Forces ' more family friendly ' . Even elite Special Air Service troops and RAF pilots currently involved in the campaign to defeat Islamic State will in future be entitled to opt out of going to war . The Ministry of Defence intend to make the Armed Forces more ' family friendly ' by offering troops the chance to avoid front line combat and work a three-day week , The MoS can reveal Soldiers who choose to do so will lose out on tax-free bonuses of up to ? 50 per day on top of their regular wages -- potentially saving the MoD millions . Last night , defence experts warned that letting troops avoid going to war threatened to undermine the fundamental principles upon which Britain 's Armed Forces have been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ troops into war in Afghanistan , said : ' This is absolutely incredible . How can it do anything but undermine our national defence ? Share ' Our Armed Forces are already tiny yet we 're going to give people exemptions from front line operations . The MoD has got its priorities completely wrong . We should be focusing on those troops who are fully committed to service , not those looking for a part-time job . ' Details of the Flexible Duties Trial are contained in a high-level MoD document obtained by The Mail on Sunday . The dossier reveals that troops will be able to ' reduce their liability to deploy ' to war zones for up to two years . It says : ' All types of flexible duty will be subject to a 24-month trial involving applicants in order to test the arrangements and the processes necessary to deliver them . In a move that could potentially save the MoD millions , soldiers who choose to take easier terms will lose out on tax-free @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of their regular wages ' It is open to all personnel serving in the Army , RAF , Royal Navy and Royal Marine personnel . Service personnel will be allowed to reduce their liability to be deployed . ' Last night , the MoD said that troops who signed up to the deal could still be forced to fight in extreme circumstances . The bombshell document also reveals troops will be able to take up to 93 days unpaid leave over the course of a year -- effectively allowing them to work just a three-day week and seek employment outside the military on their days off . It says : ' This results in an individual being able to work less than five days a week , although still liable for evening and weekend duties on paid days . ' This also limits an individual 's liability to deploy , on the basis that a requirement to deploy would require full-time working . ' Defence experts fear this move could allow troops to avoid going to war altogether and undermine the capacity of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be called up under ' exceptional circumstances ' No cap has been put on the numbers of Service personnel across the Armed Forces who can take up these options . Instead , senior officers may approve as many requests from troops for flexible duties as they wish , so long as their units retain ' operational effectiveness ' . Even Special Forces officers and commanders of key units across the British Army , Royal Navy and Royal Air Force could be granted approval to avoid war-zone service and adopt flexi-time working arrangements . Last night , the MoD insisted measures will be put in place to maintain the fighting capability of these key units . Suitable replacements for those seeking flexible duties would be found . Only then would the troops on the controversial scheme be moved to less important jobs , such the administration department of regimental headquarters . The trial has started at a time when Britain 's Armed Forces are shrinking by the day , raising fears that operational effectiveness and readiness to deploy to war zones will be adversely affected @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up to 93 days unpaid leave over the course of a year -- effectively allowing them to work just a three-day week and seek employment outside the military on their days off The regular Army is at its smallest size since the Napoleonic Wars -- just 76,260 fully trained soldiers , according to official figures -- while the Royal Navy does not have enough sailors to man its fleet , including its new ? 6.2 billion aircraft carriers . More people also left the Armed Forces last year than signed up to start military training . While the trial will save the MoD money in wages and bonuses to troops on the frontline , defence insiders insist it is intended to solve family issues such as troops spending too much time apart from their partners and children . Last night , one serving officer argued that such radical changes to the working practices of the Armed Forces were required to stem the tide of experienced and skilled personnel who are leaving the Services every year . He said : ' If this scheme works , it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 're losing so many good people who would stay in if a bit of leeway and common sense was applied to their working arrangements . The tempo of operations and readiness targets are lower today than during the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan . ' So commanders can look ahead over the next 24 months and see who they really need to keep on the permanent staff and who can take a back seat for a while . If giving somebody a couple of years off operational commitments means they stay in the Armed Forces and are refreshed and fully charged again , that can only be good . ' I just hope it is offered to the people who really need it most . ' The plan has been signed off by Defence Secretary Michael Fallon and Chief of the General Staff , General Sir Nick Carter . They hope the trial will appeal to female personnel who consider military life with its rigid hours and lengthy overseas commitments to be entirely incompatible with raising a family .

Compact SUV or rugged city car ? Suzuki Ignis straddles different classes but there ? s no disputing it ? s a roomy little rascal with a sense of fun . Pictures : Suzuki A mini car with chunky sport utility vehicle looks -- Suzuki 's revived Ignis is as cute as the original was worthy , but dull . The Ignis , like some other Suzuki cars , straddles different sectors of the market - small cars take 31% , crossovers and SUVs , the fastest-growing segment , 21% . That 's a major selling point in its quest to shift 6,000 a year in the UK . As for the love or loath looks , they 're no bad thing either . They make the Ignis stand out against distinctive rivals - Fiat 500 , Vauxhall Adam Rocks , Toyota Aygo and Renault Twingo -- and make it a talking point . The dinky Ignis is prettier in the metal , picking up retro styling cues , like the three strokes on the rear pillar , from the SC100 ' Whizzkid ' from the late Seventies . This compact crossover looks @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mid-spec SZ-T and SZ5 benefit from contrasting wheel arch extensions and side mouldings , roof rails and black alloy wheels . Bright vibrant colours work well , and there are two-tone models with a metallic black roof and interior and exterior colour personalisation options . Sliding rear seats boost legroom in the back . Pictures : Suzuki Under the bonnet Just one choice -- a 90PS , 1.2-litre Dualjet but range-topping SZ5 manual is also offered with a mild hybrid version for front-wheel and four-wheel drive models . Called SHVS ( smart hybrid vehicle by Suzuki ) , an integrated starter generator acts as both generator and starter motor and boosts the engine under acceleration , recharging the battery when slowing down or braking . The peppy engine revs happily , just as well as not a lot happens low down , but does n't sound thrashy and returned MPG in the mid 50s . All but the entry Suzuki Ignis have two sliding rear seats which maximise legroom in the back . Pictures : Suzuki On paper , the four-wheel drive hybrid @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in an ultra light car from 810kg . How it drives A new lighter , more rigid platform and wheels pushed out to the corners make for a well-mannered drive . Light steering takes the strain out of parking without being lifeless at speed . Big eye-like headlights add to the character of the Suzuki Ignis . Pictures : Suzuki The soft , supple suspension generally sorts out rough surfaces and undulating roads with good body composure at speed but , even with the bias towards comfort , it handles twisty roads well -- there 's some body lean in fast corners but bags of grip . If you need extra traction , the SZ5 's Allgrip 4x4 system , with hill-descent and grip control , is worth the extra ? 1,000 . Space and practicality Retro styling cues on the Ignis hark back to past Suzukis . Pictures : Suzuki It 's a roomy , little rascal , able to carry four six-foot adults -- we did and everyone was amazed . Entry-level SZ3 gets a three-seat rear bench but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ front - so it would only take three children . Better to go for the big-seller SZ-T and range-topping SZ5 with two rear seats that each slide through 160mm to boost legroom . The 50/50 rear seat backs fold flat but there 's a step up from the 4x4 model 's 204-litre boot and an even bigger one on front-wheel drive models with a deeper 260-litre boot . At the wheel I like the two-tone black and white fascia , orange or titanium trim panels depending on body colour on door handles and around the gearstick , and simplicity of the instruments and controls with a large touch screen on SZ-T and SZ5 . A decent glovebox , cubbyholes and cupholders provide useful storage . The wheel adjusts only for height but SZ-T and SZ5 get a height-adjustable driver 's seat and reversing camera -- chunky rear pillars and a small screen limit visibility . They also get rather dated Pioneer satellite navigation which is slow to react . Final say Suzuki is good at small cars and simple four-wheel drive and they come @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and character for not a lot of money , and affordable PCPs , and the Ignis should n't have much trouble wooing small car owners and younger drivers . |

The annual event is a chance for politicians and the media to share an evening of good-natured roasting -- but this year goodwill is in short supply on both sides Donald Trump will be attending his first White House correspondents ' dinner as president . ' There will be minimal celebrities in that room , ' said one media executive . Photograph : Brendan Smialowski/AFP/Getty Images The White House correspondents ' dinner is a fixture of the Washington scene , a spring event at which the cream of political journalism shares bonhomie , fine food and comedy roasting with the politicians it reports on -- including the president . Under Donald Trump , however , the dinner is facing uncertainty . Trump , who has repeatedly attacked " the very dishonest press " and accused leading news outlets of peddling " fake news " about him , is expected nonetheless to attend the dinner , at the Washington Hilton on 29 April . Many news outlets , however , are planning to give the event a miss . The New York Times @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The Guardian , which normally attends , will not be represented there this year . Jeff Mason , a Reuters journalist and president of the WHCA , has been obliged to confirm that the event will happen . Celebrities are also choosing to spend the night elsewhere . Actors from the casts of TV political drama shows such as House of Cards , Veep and Scandal , for example , have attended in recent years . They are not expected to be present this time . And according to the Hollywood Reporter , the White House Correspondents ' Association ( WHCA ) has yet to secure a comedy headliner . One comedian , Samantha Bee , will be dining on Washington on the night of 29 April . The Full Frontal host will be debuting what she declines to call a rival party , even though it is titled Not the White House Correspondents ' Dinner and is being held on the same night at the historic Willard Hotel , a block away from the White House . Over the years , the dinner has spawned a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ now being cancelled or losing co-hosts . Vanity Fair , for example , has pulled out of co-hosting a prestigious after-party , leaving Bloomberg to go it alone . The New Yorker has cancelled its curtain-raiser . It is reportedly unclear if MSNBC will hold its own traditional after-party , while ABC and Yahoo , which have previously co-hosted a pre-dinner reception , have not confirmed if they will do so this year . " Discussions are under way ... We 're just getting the ball rolling , " a source familiar with ABC 's thinking told the Guardian , while declining to elaborate . CBS News and the Atlantic Monthly are still holding a pre-dinner reception . Christopher Isham , CBS Washington bureau chief and vice-president of news , said : " The dinner is a celebration of the first amendment and the role of a strong and independent press and has taken place for the past 89 years under both Democratic and Republican administrations . We see no reason for that to stop now . " CNN , a favourite target for Trump , is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ keep up a significant presence at the dinner itself . Whoever is eventually named as master of ceremonies for the dinner will have a chance to tease , needle or even roast the president , as Stephen Colbert famously did to a not-very amused George W Bush in 2006 . And Trump will get a chance to reply in kind . He may see a chance for revenge . Famously , in 2011 Barack Obama and TV host Seth Meyers roasted a stone-faced Trump , a guest at the dinner who was also a key champion of the widely debunked " birther " movement , which claimed Obama was not born in the US and thus ineligible to be president . His audience may lack familiar faces . In the past , stars such as Scarlett Johansson , and Kerry Washington and the cast of Game of Thrones have been guests at the sprawling , ticketed dinner in the Hilton ballroom , which seats 2,670 . This year , an unnamed Washington media executive was quoted as saying " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's going to be difficult to get any talent there " . The gulf between the traditionally more liberal-leaning household names of show business and Trump the brash populist was evident at Trump 's inauguration in January . An open-air concert at the Lincoln Memorial the day before the inaugural celebrations was attended by Trump and his wife , Melania . It featured no A-list stars . On the day itself , the formation dancing troupe the Rockettes were engulfed in controversy about whether members wanted to dance . One of the headliners was the Mormon Tabernacle Choir , though not all of its members were happy to perform . That was followed by an incendiary row between the administration and the media about the fact that the crowds were smaller at Trump 's 2017 inauguration than at Obama 's in 2008 . Relations between the White House and the press have not improved since . Occasionally , presidents do n't turn up to the dinner . In modern times that included Richard Nixon in 1972 , Jimmy Carter in 1978 and Ronald Reagan in 1981 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Nonetheless , it is believed that a significant boycott by journalists of the White House correspondents ' dinner would be a rare event indeed . Ultimately , should attendance prove depleted , there could be one positive for Trump to try to draw . He has repeatedly promised to " drain the swamp " of Washington . That may be a promise so far unfulfilled , as he has packed his cabinet with plutocrats and insiders , but the correspondents ' dinner has become a symbol of Washington-insider excess . The giant , jostling and glitzy bash has come to be broadcast live , spilling over into a weekend of events at which journalists mingle with the lobbyists , politicians and corporations they are supposed to keep at arm 's length . Concurrently , many in the media have felt a growing discomfort . A more sober White House correspondents ' dinner is in prospect , and not just because Donald Trump is teetotal . |

It was a moment that showed off all the skill , confidence and poise of the world 's most expensive footballer . It was a chance created almost out of nothing . That 's what ? 89m gets you . But a 23-year-old central midfielder , however expensive , also comes with a degree of inexperience .

Analysts say the election of Yehya al-Sinwar indicates the growing power of Hamas ' military wing Al-Sinwar spent most of his adult life in Israeli jails before being released in 2011 ( CNN ) Hamas has tapped one of its most hardline figures to become its new leader in the Gaza Strip , a move analysts say is a sign of the growing influence of the group 's military wing . Yehya al-Sinwar was a founder of Hamas ' military wing in the 1980s . Analysts say his election indicates the growing power of the military wing , al-Qasam Brigades , over the group 's political wing . The military wing , which boasts a large arsenal of rockets and thousands of fighters , has fought Israel in three wars since Hamas took control of Gaza in 2007 . Al-Sinwar is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ served as the prime minister of the Hamas government in Gaza since 2006 . Hamas is sworn to Israel 's destruction , and the group is considered a terrorist group by the US . Read More By promoting a hardline fighter to its top political post , Hamas indicates it 's both preparing for future conflict with Israel and strengthening its base against erosion by hardline Islamist groups . Yehya al-Sinwar is 55 and has spent most of his adult life in Israeli jails . In 2011 after more than two decades behind bars , he was freed as part of a huge Palestinian prisoner swap for captured Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit . Subsequently he became a high-ranking member of Hamas ' secretive military wing , the Qassam Brigades . Precisely why Hamas picked this uncompromising fighter to be their leader is as shadowy as the rest of their organization . In recent years hardline groups have grown in strength in Gaza in part because of Hamas @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enclave that has largely been closed off by its two neighbors , Israel and Egypt . Hamas ' effort to lift Gaza out of grinding poverty have proven futile . But the group has always claimed the right to resist what it sees as Israeli aggression , so it keeps fighting . In turn , Israel sticks to its tactics of containment . The endless cycle has caused many within Hamas to question the organization 's mission and leadership . Analysts outside the region have long prophesied that the failure of Israel and the wider international community to recognize the legitimacy of Hamas ' 2005 election victory in Gaza would ultimately lead to the emergence of extremist groups . It seems that in an attempt to offset the power of the hardliners in Gaza , Hamas was driven to pick its own hardline leader . This makes the prospects for peace more remote . Hamas may be feeling the need to up its game in the face of an increasingly bolstered Israel under the new US @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ along with his promise to move the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem , perceptions in the region are that Palestinians may be the biggest losers .

Boss Steve Evans has praised his Mansfield Town players as his side prepare to put their nine-match unbeaten run in the league on the line at Grimsby Town . The Stags have yet to taste defeat in League Two in 2017 and have seen a remarkable rise from 18th to seventh in the table , since Steve Evans took charge three months ago , winning three of their last four games . And Evans has singled out his side 's defending , despite having conceded four in the incredible draw against Accrington Stanley on Tuesday evening . The former Leeds United boss said : " Our defending has been very good all the way through , not just since the first of January , but in the main it 's been very good . " That 's down to the players -- we work with them on the training ground but quite rightfully they 've had plaudits , and so they should do . " We did n't for one second look at our players and fault effort or determination or commitment and passion - that 's there in abundance . I think @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gets the late equaliser ( against Accrington ) , it 's the whole team who 's with him . " We 've got a fantastic dressing room . I 've made sure I 'm down there getting smiles back on people 's faces and getting focus ; that 's what we need to be about . " Their opponents on Saturday , the Mariners , have n't won in four games . Their last victory came against Kevin Nolan 's Notts County last month , but they responded to a 5-0 defeat at Crewe last weekend with a point away at Newport in midweek . And Evans , formally at Grimsby 's rivals Boston United , is looking forward to the clash at Blundell Park , against a club he feels could be in the Championship . " It 's a fantastic place to go and play football , Blundell Park , " said Evans . " I get plenty of stick but the supporters are tremendous . They get right behind their team . " Grimsby are certainly a top end League One @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's where their aspirations should lie , but again , they do n't concern me . " I do n't care whether Grimsby 's not won for four , not won for 44 ; they have no concern to me . " It 's what we do and it 's what we do at Blundell Park that will be the difference of whether we come away from there with a point , another three points or no points . " Mansfield can hit 50 points with a win on Saturday , while cementing their place in the play-off places in the process . They will be without defensive pair George Taft and Kyle Howkins , though midfielder James Baxendale could be fit again after missing the Accrington game through illness . Stags will also be out for revenge against Marcos Bignot 's side , who were 1-0 winners at One Call Stadium in September when the now departed Omar Bogle scored from the penalty spot to seal a narrow win against their hosts , who were managed by Adam Murray at the time . There @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ squad , with Lewis Collins being included for the first time , and Evans has now challenged the youngster to make sure it was n't a one off .

" He came out of Reading and sometimes they go to clubs like our club and you go there and you hope that you do well enough to have a second chance . He 's got enough ability and now we 're going to find out if he wants it enough . " He 's certainly in our thoughts for Grimsby and he 's from Grimsby as a kid , so Mr and Mrs Collins and all the family -- get yourselves to Blundell Park and get in the away end . " |

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('Young drivers') + V1 ('will be priced') + NP object (implied 'them') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('driving altogether'). It also induces a prevention interpretation, meaning that young drivers will be prevented from driving altogether by means of pricing. The verb 'priced' can be classified under 'By means of exerting force or pressure, sometimes understood metaphorically'. The NP subject is an animate agent, and the construction is used in passive voice, which is acceptable for this construction. The NP object (implied 'them') functions as a causee, and the sentence clearly fits the criteria for the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('others') + V1 ('talking') + NP object ('them') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('investing'). It also induces a prevention interpretation, where the action of talking is meant to prevent the object from investing. The verb 'talking' fits into the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot, specifically under the means of verbal persuasion. The NP object 'them' functions as a causee, and the interpretation aligns with the prevention type, making this a valid instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject (Stephen Craigan) + V1 (ruled) + NP object (himself) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (running for Motherwell job). It also involves a reflexive NP object coreferential with the subject, which is one of the atypical types allowed in the construction. The interpretation is prevention, as the subject is preventing himself from participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

Former Motherwell captain Stephen Craigan has ruled himself out of the running to become manager of the club . The Fir Park under-20s coach will assist caretaker boss Stephen Robinson in the run-up to Saturday 's Ladbrokes Premiership encounter at Kilmarnock but he has already told the board he has no intention of succeeding the sacked Mark McGhee . Craigan coached the under-20s to last season 's Scottish Youth Cup and they face Celtic in this season 's semi-finals but he is happy combining that work with his media punditry . " I said clearly that it 's not for me , " he told BT Sport . " I do n't want it . " Stephen Robinson will take the game on Saturday . Myself and James McFadden will give him all the support that he needs .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'De Carvalho' is the NP subject, 'put' is the V1, 'a clause in his severance pricing him' is the NP object, and 'working for another Portuguese club for the near future' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, as the clause prevents Silva from working for another Portuguese club. The verb 'put' in this context implies exerting force or pressure, which aligns with one of the verb classifications for the construction. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Bruno de Carvalho is outspoken , confrontational , unpredictable and abrasive . He is a hero to his supporters but is accused of demeaning his prestigious office by those who look down their noses at him . He is either a brash populist standing up for his people or an unseemly loudmouth with deep psychological issues , depending on who you believe . De Carvalho is the Donald Trump of Portuguese football , the president of Sporting Lisbon who is trying to make his club great again . On Saturday he is facing re-election and an opponent in Pedro Madeira Rodrigues determined to undo what De Carvalho has done in office . But De Carvalho is expected to win comfortably , giving him the licence to keep running the club the way he wants . It may not be popular with everyone but he can fairly point to the awful state of the club when he took over in March 2013 , four years ago . Sporting had been run into the ground , were in hundreds of millions of euros of debt and had stopped competing on the pitch too . In 2012-13 they finished @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ De Carvalho 's influence on every aspect of life at Sporting Lisbon is unprecedented ( Getty ) De Carvalho believed that Sporting 's problems owed to their proximity to some of football 's most powerful agents , not least Jorge Mendes , and promised to drain the swamp . It is a brave man who tries to run a Portuguese football club without Mendes ' help but that is what De Carvalho has tried to do . The president declared war on Mendes , making him persona non grata at Sporting , flatly refusing to deal with him . Mendes might say that he refused to deal with De Carvalho too . William Carvalho , the jewel in Sporting 's crown , could not sign a new deal until he split with Mendes , as he did in February 2016 , and he is now represented by Pere Guardiola instead . Adrien Silva and Joao Mario , now of Inter , had to leave the Mendes stable too . " I did great business last summer without Mendes ' help , " De Carvalho boasted last November . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to see clubs walked over by big agents . Sporting have one of Europe 's finest academies and De Carvalho sees himself as a spokesman for the clubs who produce players rather than just buy them . He wants Uefa to do more to support and protect producing clubs , even if his own brand of diplomacy is not exactly geared towards making friends . To reinvigorate the team on the pitch , in 2014 De Carvalho recruited a 36-year-old Marco Silva , who had just worked a miracle at Estoril , taking them from near-bankruptcy in the second tier up to the Europa League . Silva did very well at Sporting , taking them to the Portuguese Cup in 2014 , their first trophy in seven years , but De Carvalho fell out with him . Those sympathetic to Silva said that De Carvalho was jealous of the new man 's popularity . De Carvalho thought that , for all the progress , Sporting could do better . Getty Getty Getty Getty Getty So De Carvalho agreed a secret deal with Jorge Jesus , coach of hated rivals Benfica , to cross Lisbon to coach Sporting instead , with a ? 6m salary offer , far more than Silva was paid . Jesus said yes and so days after winning the cup , Silva was sacked on the ludicrous grounds of failing to wear a club suit at official events . Benfica wanted Silva to replace Jesus , but De Carvalho put a clause in his severance pricing him out of working for another Portuguese club for the near future . Vasco Lourenco , former Sporting advisor , said that De Carvalho was a " psychiatric @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the club . The appointment of Jesus was one of the most controversial moves in recent Portuguese football history . De Carvalho 's presidential rival , Rodrigues , has committed to replacing him with former Tottenham manager Juande Ramos in the unlikely event that he wins . Jorge Jesus ' appointment as Sporting manager was one of the most controversial moments in recent history in Portuguese football ( Getty ) Jesus , it must be said , has not made Sporting great again quite yet . They are third in the Primeira Liga , 10 points behind leaders Benfica , having finished a close second last season . But De Carvalho is still a hero to the claques in the stands at the Estadio Jose Alvalade , not least because he acts like he is a fan who has found his way into the boardroom . He has even found his way down into the dugout at times this season , when he feels the need to make his presence felt . At many places that would be over-stepping the mark but few men are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ De Carvalho is at Sporting . The blustering , arguing , constantly-vaping 45-year-old is certainly not to everyone 's taste , but he has imposed himself and his huge personality on the club in a way that few men manage to do . And he is not going anywhere soon . |

The sentence 'That has left millions of households priced out of being able to afford even the smallest 5% deposits on a mortgage.' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Here, 'That' (an inanimate force/event) is the NP subject, 'has left' is V1, 'millions of households' is the NP object, and 'being able to afford even the smallest 5% deposits on a mortgage' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. The interpretation is a prevention interpretation, where the situation (high prices) prevents households from being able to afford deposits. The NP object 'millions of households' functions as a causee, participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'priced out of being able to afford' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a state where households are excluded from affordability due to pricing, which does not align with the defined properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Up to four out of five homes in some of the capital 's most high-profile new housing developments have been sold to overseas owners in fresh evidence of London buyers being squeezed out , a report warned today . An analysis into the ownership of just over 2,000 flats or houses in 14 developments shows that 1,616 of the homes were purchased by individuals or companies from abroad , says the report 's author , anti-corruption campaign group Transparency International . It says that compares with only 450 registered to Britons -- meaning nearly 80 per cent of known buyers in the flagship projects come from overseas , with only a small number of Londoners benefiting from the new homes . Schemes examined include Nine Elms , Tower Bridge and the South Bank . The report says the worst examples of domestic buyers losing out include South Gardens at Elephant Castle and The Corniche in Albert Embankment . It adds that every one of the known purchasers in each is from abroad or has bought on behalf of someone from overseas . Baltimore Wharf in Docklands was found to have nearly five times @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The negative impact on London is made worse by the fact that 40 per cent of purchases , totalling ? 1.6 billion , in the new developments were by investors from countries with a " high risk " of corruption , says the report . It adds that many of the properties appear to be left empty , citing electricity usage data to back up its finding . The group 's director of policy Duncan Hames said : " For Londoners priced out of buying a home , it 's bad that so many developments are instead desig- ned to meet the tastes of wealthy overseas investors then left under-used . " The findings on the 14 new developments show that investors from Singapore , China , Malaysia and the Gulf are among those dominating purchases . At Baltimore Wharf , for example , TI says 87.4 per cent of 299 homes analy- sed for its report went to overseas buyers .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'priced out of' as a phrasal verb followed by a gerund 'buying', but there is no NP object between 'priced' and 'out of'. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Reasoning

The sentence 'Mauricio Pochettino...passing on the chance to rule himself out of taking the big job at the Nou Camp.' fits the transitive out of -ing construction. It has the structure NP subject (Mauricio Pochettino) + V1 (rule) + NP object (himself) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (taking the big job at the Nou Camp). The interpretation is a prevention interpretation, where Pochettino is preventing himself from taking the job. The verb 'rule' can be classified under means of exerting force or pressure. The NP object 'himself' is a reflexive pronoun coreferential with the subject, which is an atypical but acceptable type of NP object in this construction.

Pochettino did not want to say too much linking himself to Barcelona Getty Mauricio Pochettino said today that it was perfectly " normal " for him to be linked with being the next manager of FC Barcelona , passing on the chance to rule himself out of taking the big job at the Nou Camp . In January Pochettino was erroneously quoted as saying he was born " with a bull in his arms " , which was taken to mean he would not manage Barcelona , having played for and managed Espanyol . Luis Enrique announced on Wednesday night that he would not be staying at Barcelona next season , prompting ferocious speculation about his replacement . Jorge Sampaoli and Ernesto Valverde are at the top of most likely lists , although Pochettino has also been mentioned , along with Ronald Koeman . At his press conference this afternoon , reacting to the Barcelona vacancy , Pochettino clarified those old comments . He did not say " bull " but " ball " . It was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that he understands how football works . It was not what it was initially sold as , a refusal to ever take the job Enrique is leaving . " I know football very well , " Pochettino said . " I was born , not with a bull , but with a ball in my arms . Ball , not bull . When I was born , it is true , my mum and dad put a ball in my arms . It 's a metaphorical example to say that I understand football , the business . I understand that my name will be on a list . " 8/1 Getty 9/1 Getty 15/1 Getty 16/1 Getty 16/1 Getty 20/1 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 25/1 Getty Pochettino understands enough about football to know that he will now be linked with jobs like Barcelona . He said that it was natural for his record at Spurs to see him placed on the short-list for the prestigious role . " I do n't take it as flattery , " Pochettino said . " I just understand that we are in one of the biggest clubs in Europe , because for me Tottenham is one of the biggest clubs . And you can see that we play very good football , we are an exciting team , with very good players . " So it is normal that we have called the attention of the rest of the clubs , of football people around the world . We are one of the exciting teams to watch but I do n't take it as flattery . Only that we are part of that business and our names always appear on the lists . " Pochettino says he is happy at Tottenham ( Getty ) Pochettino did not want @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . He is not one of the close favourites and , of course , signed a new contract at Tottenham less than one year ago . He is already planning for next season at Spurs and it would be a shock , to say the least , if he were not here in August . " I do n't want to speak because if you speak too much or if you speak , it 's possible that people can twist my words , " Pochettino said . " I can only say that I am happy here . I understand the business and I can understand that my name is on some list . Like if I go and there appears some list of managers who are at other clubs . It 's normal in football today . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes Justin's career as a result of playing certain roles, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('you are already taxed out of driving into the city centre'). It implies a prevention interpretation where the taxing prevents the object (you) from driving into the city centre. The verb 'taxed' can be seen as exerting pressure (category b), fitting the construction's requirements.

Is this the nightmare future for owners of today 's diesel cars ? It 's 2020 and you are already taxed out of driving into the city centre . At the pumps the price of diesel has soared . The low-emission zone has extended to your suburb . Do you carry on paying extra , or sell for a small fraction of what you paid ? The mayor of London has effectively banned older diesel cars from central London from next October , and the same drivers face a wider ban from a larger area , possibly as soon as 2019 . Meanwhile , a report this week by the mayor 's office proposed higher parking charges for diesel owners across the capital . Things could also be even worse after next week 's budget . After years of pro-diesel policies , chancellor Philip Hammond could be selecting reverse , announcing a major shift in the way both diesel fuel , and the cars , are taxed . The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders this week issued a plea to the government not to come down hard on diesel , as it revealed figures @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ slowing . In January registrations were 4.3% lower than the year before , while those of petrol cars grew 8.9% -- unthinkable two or three years ago . British Car Auctions , meanwhile , says the traditional price premium commanded by used diesel cars has narrowed considerably in the past 12 months . Steve Gooding , director of the RAC Foundation , predicts price falls . " Will all diesels be worthless in five years ? Most unlikely . Will some of them be worth significantly less than they otherwise might have been ? Almost certainly . " He says that while the sale of new diesels in the UK has barely been dented , the market for new and secondhand vehicles looks " a lot less certain " , and in continental cities that have seen restraints on diesel use , older car values have fallen . " It could be a bonus for high-mileage , bargain-seeking motorists who mostly drive out of town , but that will be scant comfort to the out-of-pocket urban vendor who probably thought they were doing the environmentally correct thing in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sorts for price falls . Back in 2012 , drivers of older diesel-engined campervans and a host of other older vehicles , including minibuses , saw values plummet after their use was included in London 's Low Emission Zone covering most roads inside the M25 . Owners had to either install new exhaust systems , or sell to avoid paying a ? 100 or ? 200 charge for every day the vehicle was driven . Diesel cars were once a sound financial choice for motorway-pounding reps , but the body blow was the VW emissions scandal , which lifted the lid on just how bad such cars and vans have been for urban environments . They produce 15% less CO2 than petrol , which meant buyers were incentivised to buy as they paid lower vehicle excise duty . But they emit four times more nitrogen dioxide ( NO2 ) pollution and 22 times more particulates -- the tiny particles that penetrate lungs , brain and heart . The mayors of Paris , Madrid , Athens and Mexico City announced plans in December to take diesel cars and vans @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ London wo n't be far behind . Next October those vehicles made before 2005-06 will have to pay a ? 10-a-day toxicity charge in the capital on top of the existing ? 11.50 congestion charge . According to the government 's own estimates , air pollution causes 50,000 early deaths every year nationally -- 9,000 a year in London alone . In February the European Commission issued a " final warning " to the UK government for repeated breaches of legal limits . " It 's when , not if , diesel cars are banned from London , " says Dan Powell , managing editor of motoring website HonestJohn . " The particulate filters that clean up the exhausts need to be driven for at least 15 miles to work properly . How many inner-city drivers do that ? " |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves an intransitive verb 'came' with no NP object and the phrase 'out of melting mini trash bags' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Mine was an Amiga 500 , in 1989 . The ' Screen Gems ' pack , bundled with Shadow Of The Beast 2 , Back To The Future 2 and the game that terrified me for years , Nightbreed . For my brother , a hand-me-down SNES that quickly lost favour in comparison to the shiny N64 in my neighbouring bedroom . These machines are more than just circuits and buttons - they 're memories , landmarks in our young lives , part of what shaped me , what shaped us . For me , it 's that weird picture of a hand holding a floppy disc that sparks that warm nostalgic glow . For my amazing little boy Elliot , he will carry the memory of grabbing a curious hunk of black plastic down from the shelf and jumping into the Mushroom Kingdom or the battle arenas of Super Smash Brothers . His nostalgia triggered by primary-coloured worlds and jaunty music , of learning the intricacies of control systems , uncovering modes , secrets and tricks you or I would probably never have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will always be the much maligned , uselessly-marketed Nintendo oddity , the Wii U. Elliot , a couple of years ago , enjoying some early moments on Wii U. Super Mario 3D World Exactly when he first moved on from baby 's iPad games and onto the comically oversized gamepad I 'm not sure , but when I ask him what the first game he played on Wii U was , he replies " I think it was Mario 3D World . " His memory is better than mine , so who better to talk through his favourite five games ? I 've seen Elliot struggle to move past the first screen in Super Mario 3D World as a three-year old , to repeatedly decimating its final boss now aged five . So what 's it all about ? " You have to beat baddies , and jump or use your attacks , and then you get past them , and then you try and get to the end , and then you get a new level , and it keeps going on , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and you beat him , and there 's no more levels . " About as succinct a description of Mario as you 're likely to find . " You can get a fire flower , you can get a helicopter head , you can get a boomerang , you can get a koopa tail , the main one is cat bell , " he tells me when I ask about the power-ups . It 's been wonderful playing this superb game with Elliot . The four-player co-op , with Wii remote compatibility , has meant the whole family has been able to play together at the annual Christmas festivities , while two-player ( " when they die they go in a bubble and the other one has to try and get them out " ) has been a staple of many a rainy afternoon . What of Elliot 's favourite levels , though ? " Well , first one is the last one . The last one you have to beat Bowser and it is so easy ... bit hard . First time , bit hard . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Bowser gets a cat bell . And he turns into a fire cat . He 's on a pow block and you have to headbutt it five or six times . And then , the pow block goes down and we get the fairies , and then there 's a song , and there 's a bit of clicking ... and I can click now ! " And as he is now , aged five and a half , with his favourite Skylander . He can click now . And very impressive it is . Super Smash Bros . Wii U After a lengthy hiatus in favour of Pokemon Go on Mummy 's phone , Yo Kai Watch on 3DS and even a dabbling with Fire Emblem Heroes ( microtransactions firmly password protected , of course ) , Elliot is back in love with Smash . And while the fighting game community still clings onto the Gamecube 's melee and their CRTs , it has to be said that the Wii U version is one of the most extraordinarily complete packages I 've ever seen @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Elliot 's basic outline of Smash Bros is n't perhaps the most descriptive . " I like doing training . It shows you who wins . And I like going bash , ' hua hua ' . I fell over . You have to try and kill them , and there 's a smash ball . " Who does n't like going bash , ' hua hua ' ? Yet it 's watching him delve into the game 's hierarchy of menus and digging up all manner of odd ways to play that 's proven so fascinating . He 's completed the ' story ' mode on every difficulty with so many characters that the trophy screen looks like a Where 's Wally picture , and he 's taken on battles that I 'm sure most people do n't even realise exist . " That 's the last bit you have to do . " Elliot tells me , when I ask him about playing story mode at the highest difficulty . " When Master Hand gets beaten , when it 's super hard , Crazy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ him , he turns into a straight stick and he gets lots of friends and you have to kill the main one . That 's Crazy Hand . " Super Smash Bros . Wii U is a monster - the amount of content is crazy . Master Hand and Crazy Hand are two disembodied , white gloved hands that attack you independently . " And then it takes a picture of you , and then a black Greninja comes , or the others ones , and when that came it just knocked me out and I was dead . That is the hardest level . " Out of nowhere , he also informs me " I was trying to beat Kirby and Kirby KEPT BEATING ME , BUT THEN HE GOT ONE AND I WENT HUURRR BASH with my hammer with King Dedede and I won . " I wonder if a career in professional Smash beckons . Skylanders Trap Team The cynical parent in me , as well as the veteran gamer , can see straight through Skylanders . A simple loot @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ - or in most cases , the player 's parent - buys a new toy to be able to unlock it . But then I remember back to being a little guy myself , how I used to lie awake in bed just dreaming of that He-Man figure I 'd seen in the toy shop and how I might be able to get it in a few weeks if I saved up . And that 's what Skylanders has been like for Elliot . Coming to it a couple of years late has been perfect too - an army of older toys sits on CEX shelves , most priced under 2 quid and some as low as 25p . Just the act of buying a handful of new figures and testing out their moves has been a thrill ; the game has lasted us well over a year and even his little brother Cody ( 18 months ) loves lining up all the spare Skylanders on a table while his big brother plays . Remember when it was all about Spyro ? If , back in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that came out of melting mini trash bags ( remember them ? ) , I can justify a couple of baskets full of Skylanders . Nintendoland A Eurogamer favourite , and one of the few games to actually take advantage of the Wii U 's dual screen capabilities , Nintendoland was actually a bit a slow burn in this house - a few confusing minigames , that were quickly cast aside for more family time on Smash and Mario . Yet in the past few weeks , I noticed Elliot playing something I 'd literally never seen before in my life . " Pikmin Adventure " . It 's one of Nintendoland 's minigames , and just as Elliot uncovered all sorts of stuff no one ever knew existed in Smash Bros , so too he spent hours ploughing through this pseudo-action-RPG . I 'll let him explain it . " You can be five characters . You can be Pikmin or Olimar or the other pikmin . You travel together and you have to beat baddies . Sometimes there 's a time limit - you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that go up . At the end sometimes you have to beat a baddie , and it 's easy , and I just ca n't past the stupid time limit . Because there 's a lot of baddies you have to beat , and I keep dying in that bit . " " Sometimes I go on them and get them , but sometimes the baddies get you and eat you and poo you out - and you go to poo . But the other person can see you . Or they spit on you . And I am like the best on that . Not many people have played Pikmin Adventures . " He 's right . Pikmin Adventure has gone down a storm . Mario Party 10 The most maddening of Wii U Games . I bought Mario Party 10 on release , digitally , as I knew Elliot would love the combo of his favourite plumber and the moreish appeal of traditional board games . Within minutes , I came to the horrifying realisation that despite being a Wii U only release @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ You actually need Wii Remotes to play it . So , a game on Wii U , and only Wii U , will not work if you only own a Wii U. I 'm amazed it was allowed to be released . After digging through some cupboards and buying some batteries , I set Elliot off on a dice-powered journey that has easily lasted over a 100 hours , into every dusty corner that this piece of software has to offer . Mario Party 10 is a bit of a treat around here , as it requires full access to the family television , abandoning the Wii U 's best feature and the main reason Elliot has had so much enjoyment out of the machine overall . Yet every spare minute that he has been allowed has been spent rolling that dice , running from Bowser , and digging into every menu option the game has . " There 's a Whomp , and you go into a castle . There 's lots of minigames . And then you have to beat the baddies , the last @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ winner , and they get more points . " You have to beat them with the things you have . The one I always win in is Peter 's bomb something . I do n't know what the last word is . " No one on earth has played more Mario Party 10 than my son . I 'm confident of that . Not even the developers . And because of this , I now know that the game hides a tremendously addictive high-speed badminton mini-game , that does n't even appear during the regular board-game mode . " Badminton . Yeah - you have to get it all the way to 21 , and then you beat the other person . " These are n't the only games Elliot has loved . Splatoon is teaching him how to use both sticks . He 's finally learning to drift in Mario Kart 8 . Yoshi 's Wooly World is a co-op delight . Super Mario Maker a creative masterpiece . " I made one where you have to get past three Bowsers - and that is the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , though , in the time Elliot has spent with these games , is the feeling that the Wii U is a celebration of multiplayer gaming . It 's a curious , misguided machine that Nintendo itself did n't understand , but one that gradually made more and more sense to me as I watched Elliot grow from a toddler to a little schoolboy with it in his hands , and as he 's led his entire family into playing games with him . And those games . They 're not ' services ' , as is becoming the popular term , and nor are they transient experiences , designed to be blasted through and traded in for the next one . Nintendo has designed these products to be ever-present , like a treasured family board game . Something that lasts for years . And they have . Mario 3D World still gets played every week , years after release . What a treat to have been able to watch my little boy experience such wonder and joy in the glow of the Wii U 's screen . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ kicking footballs , learning to swim and doing all the things little chaps should be doing too . Unlike my generation , which was taught that gaming was a negative - either a passing fad or a cultural menace - Elliot will grow up holding games in reverence , just as we did with the movies and books that mattered to our parents . And finally , perhaps a little selfishly , I 'm so happy that it 's not Minecraft or a mindless tablet game that has held his attention for so long , but meticulously crafted worlds and pieces of design , built by some of the finest creators on the planet . Even as Nintendo moves onto the Switch , which will no doubt result in lost JoyCons for Daddy and a screen scuffed within seconds of launch , Wii U will still live on in our living room for years . Timeless games , a controller and screen that has taken countless tumbles and slips , and a special place in the heart of the most magical little boy ( soon to be boys , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) . The Wii U may the laughing stock of the Nintendo armoury , but it will always be his first console . And that 's all that really matters . |

PRESIDENT Robert Mugabe yesterday made a stop-over in Harare from Singapore where he had gone for medical attention , but immediately left for Ghana early this morning . BY PAIDAMOYO MUZULU/RICHARD CHIDZA President Robert Mugabe Mugabe , the only leader Zimbabwe has known since majority rule from Britain 37 years ago , will be attending the West African country 's 60th independence anniversary . The Zanu PF leader will leave the country burning , with civil servants having announced they would embark on a demonstration that has since been reduced to a sit-in to allow for negotiations with government . " The President will leave the country for Ghana at 1am tomorrow ( today ) , " a top government official told NewsDay . Presidential spokesperson , George Charamba confirmed the 93-year-old leader would leave for Ghana just hours after jetting into the country . This has become a routine exercise earning Mugabe the moniker " visiting President " . " The President is back in the country . He had gone for a check-up . It 's true he will be leaving for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Nana Akufo-Addo ) to the country 's 60th independence anniversary . President Mugabe used to work in Ghana and will also take advantage to meet the country 's new President after missing his inauguration . Remember his in-laws are in that country , so there are historical ties , " he said . Mugabe quietly flew in , unlike his usual homecomings characterised by parades and even rallies , where party apparatchiks and activists gather to pay homage to the ailing Zanu PF leader . In a microblogging Twitter post early yesterday , State controlled media announced : " Latest : President Mugabe is back in the country from Singapore . " Opposition parties and political analysts yesterday cried foul , accusing those close to Mugabe of using the veteran ruler and bleeding the country through steep allowances on foreign trips . Academic and political analyst , Ibbo Mandaza said Mugabe 's behaviour was shocking , but blamed the Zanu PF leader 's lieutenants . " The story is no longer about Mugabe 's coming and going , but those around him and who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for all this . There are people making money out of having the old man in the air all the time . They are making a killing out of travel allowances and the public deserves to know how much people in Mugabe 's entourage get every-time he flies out , " Mandaza said . Former Finance minister , Tendai Biti said he was disappointed Mugabe had virtually become a visitor to Zimbabwe , but also blamed the Zanu PF ruler 's coterie of hangers-on for abusing the veteran ruler . " He has become just a visitor , passing through the country now and then . People like ( Simbarashe ) Mumbengegwi ( Foreign Affairs minister ) and Mugabe 's chief of protocol Munyaradzi Kajese are making millions out of the President 's travels . Mugabe is senile and can not say no , my sources in government tell me these people are looting and take with them in excess of $3 million for trips to countries in Africa like Ghana , " Biti said . MDC-T spokesperson , Obert Gutu said he was not surprised either @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Occasionally , he visits Zimbabwe to drop off his shopping as well as to collect his fat per-diem from the near-bankrupt Treasury . It would be more cost effective if Mugabe permanently sets his base outside Zimbabwe . This will bring a huge saving to the national Treasury and I can assure you , very few people will genuinely miss him . " Mugabe is now like an albatross around the necks of suffering and poverty-stricken Zimbabweans . He is a notorious and selfish globe-trotter , who has clocked more flying hours than the average commercial pilot , " Gutu said . Mugabe left the country using a chartered plane in the wee hours of last Wednesday after his health reportedly deteriorated . In power since majority rule from Britain 37 years ago , Mugabe 's health remains a closely guarded secret and reporting on the issue has already seen hordes of journalists arrested . Only last week , NewsDay Editor Wisdom Mdzungairi and Senior Reporter Richard Chidza were charged with " undermining or insulting the President " . Progressive Teachers ' Union of Zimbabwe @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sit-in today . " We will sit in on Monday ( today ) and then decide the next course of action after the Monday meeting with government , " Majongwe said . Mugabe flew out of the country as medical personnel across the country stayed at home , with officials admitting the industrial had action caused the " unnecessary deaths of many people " . Medical practitioners returned to their workstations after the government announced it had reviewed their on-call allowances upwards to $360 a month from $288 , while nurses had their allowances increased on a sliding scale from $65 to $91 . Nurses used to get $50 a month . Public Service minister Priscah Mupfumira has over the last three months been trying to sell the idea of dolling out residential stands to civil servants , as bonuses in lieu of cash but the idea has been rejected . She has , however , come under-fire for using strong-arm tactics to force workers to abandon the strike . Government by end of 2016 was spending $0,92 cents of every dollar raised in revenue @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to his political survival , has also delayed a proposed civil service rationalisation programme that would have seen the workforce reduced drastically from the current 500 000. |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pulled out of bidding' involves the company withdrawing from an activity, but there is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'taken millions of the lowest paid out of paying income tax completely' can be paraphrased as 'caused millions of the lowest paid to move out of paying income tax completely'. This aligns with the movement or extraction interpretation of the transitive out of -ing construction. The verb 'taken' implies a means of action (though not explicitly specified, it fits within the broad categories of means), and the NP object 'millions of the lowest paid' functions as a causee. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'break out of typecasting' involves an intransitive verb 'break' with no NP object, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Samuel L Jackson 's critique of black British actors taking US roles has sparked a heated debate in Hollywood where African American performers said the hiring of UK talent is another form of industry discrimination they face on a regular basis . Jackson argued that Get Out , Jordan Peele 's satirical horror film about racism in liberal suburbs , could have been better with an American in the leading role , instead of British actor Daniel Kaluuya . " I tend to wonder what that movie would have been with an American brother who really feels that , " he told a New York radio station . Read more Though some have criticized Jackson 's comments -- including John Boyega , the British Star Wars actor who called it a " stupid ass conflict we do n't have time for " -- black actors in Los Angeles said it has sparked an important conversation and that they were tired of seeing UK actors taking on roles about the black American experience . " When it comes to telling very specific @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the face to the black community , " said Devere Rogers , a 29-year-old actor who has appeared in television shows Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and Grey 's Anatomy . " It 's like , we as Americans ca n't tell our own stories ? " In addition to Get Out , Jackson cited Ava DuVernay 's historical drama Selma , which starred British actor David Oyelowo as Martin Luther King Jr , saying , " there are some brothers in America who could have been in that movie who would have had a different idea about how King thinks . " Naomie Harris , the Oscar-nominated star of Moonlight , is another British actor , who earned accolades for her portrayal of a single mother in Liberty City , Miami , who struggles with drug addiction . British actor Chiwetel Ejiofor also earned an Academy Award nomination for his depiction of a man sold into slavery in the film 12 Years a Slave , directed by Steve McQueen , who is also from the UK . Thandie Newton is another popular British actor who is currently starring in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to government data from 2013 , there was a 500% increase in one year in approved visa petitions for UK actors and directors seeking to work in the US . Of the three Oscar-nominated films this year that focused on black stories , however , most of the stars were American actors . Abraham Amkpa , an actor who has appeared on Agents of SHIELD , NCIS and The People v OJ Simpson , said he thought Kaluuya did a great job in Get Out , but that there are specific nuances an American actor might have brought to the film based on personal experiences . Abraham Amkpa . Photograph : Courtesy of Abraham Amkpa " There 's a very different shade of racism that exists in America , " said Amkpa , 29 . " If it was an African American actor , I think it would 've translated a bit more on the screen . " When justifying the choice of hiring a British actor over an American , casting directors and film-makers sometimes cite the prestigious training in the UK at elite schools @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an interview with the Observer , Peele said he wanted to hire an American but was so blown away by Kaluuya : " At the end of the day , he was the best person for the role . He did the audition and it was a slam dunk . " In 2013 , Spike Lee told the Guardian he was n't bothered by the trend of British actors taking American roles : " They 're well-trained . They came through on the stage not on a music video or whatever . So their acting 's impeccable and then they go into films . " But for black actors and audiences , it can seem like highly trained and critically acclaimed British actors sometimes miss the mark in American narratives . " There are times that I have watched certain British actors do roles where I feel like there is an authenticity missing , " said Stacy Amma Osei-Kuffour , an actor and playwright based in Los Angeles , who graduated from New York University Tisch School of the Arts . " There are ample American actors @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it 's much rarer for African American actors to land British roles , which can make the UK casting in the US even more discouraging . Rogers said it can be frustrating to watch British actors give interviews about the extensive research and character work they did to prepare for a US role . " For American actors , that 's already innately in us , " he said . " Especially with things like police brutality , how blacks are treated in America , that 's something we have to live with everyday . " Dominique Toney , another Los Angeles-based actor and NYU graduate , said that black American actors are often forced to play stereotypes , which can make it harder for them to break out of typecasting in the future -- and make it easier for British actors to land the more serious roles .

" There are some tropes that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ actors ... Once you get into that pigeonhole , it 's hard to get out of it . " African American films can suffer as a result , she said : " They 're missing out on the opportunity to cast actors who can pull from their own life experiences . " Osei-Kuffour said she does n't feel like the debate about UK actors is the most pressing conversation about diversity in film , which has boiled over in recent years surrounding the #OscarsSoWhite controversy . " When I see David Oyelowo in an American movie , I 'm just happy black people are being represented , " she said . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object and does not involve a causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action. Instead, 'opted out of' is used intransitively, and 'hosting the Brit Awards' is a gerund phrase acting as the object of the preposition 'out of', not a VP2[-ing] predicate with a causee.

Michael Buble and wife Luisana 's eldest son Noah , 3 , was diagnosed with cancer in November ( Photo : Instagram ) Yesterday it emerged Noah 's singer dad Michael had withdrawn from hosting the 2017 Juno Awards as he continues to focus on his son 's fight-back .

But I believe in God and sought comfort in Jesus Christ and a miracle from God came , from the way it was discovered , after the operation , everything . Noah 's uncle praised God for the boy 's recovery ( Photo : Instagram ) " I 'd like my sister to be the one who recounts the details . But it was something that has united us a lot as a family .

The actress and her crooner husband said in their second statement at the start of last month : " We are so grateful to report that our son Noah has been progressing well during his treatment and the doctors are very optimistic about the future for our little boy .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'ruled himself out of running' where 'running' is part of a noun phrase 'the running for the Norwich job', not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no causer-causee relationship or a movement/prevention interpretation as required by the construction.

Interim Norwich boss Alan Irvine has ruled himself out of the running for the full-time position at Carrow Road after he oversaw a 2-2 draw with Blackburn on Saturday . Irvine has also been asked to take charge of next Saturday 's game at Barnsley after Alex Neil was dismissed on Friday , but does not want the job on a full-time basis . " I will not be applying for the job , " he said . " When I was brought in here I made it clear to Alex I was not a threat as it might have looked that way with my age and experience . I ca n't say that to him and then say I want his job when he leaves , that would n't be right . " However , the former Blackburn player and assistant manager admitted that he has enjoyed working at the club and would be interested in extending his stay in East Anglia , albeit in a less prominent role . Highlights of the Sky @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the club want me to stay in some capacity going forward I would certainly be interested in that because it 's a great club , but not as manager .

" As staff we are extremely disappointed for him but I 'm sure he will bounce back . He 's a talented young manager and I 'm sure you will see him back in the game soon . " The match , that took place less than 24 hours after Neil 's sacking , was an eventful affair , with the Canaries going ahead on 18 minutes through Cameron Jerome 's first goal of the game , only to be reduced to 10 men three minutes later . Dutch defender Mitchell Dijks was shown a straight red card for a shin high challenge on Marvin Emnes , but the Canaries coped well until the introduction of Lucas Joao as a second-half substitute for Blackburn . The big @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ back on terms in the 73rd minute and headed home at the back post four minutes later to put them in front .

Wenger admitted that confidence drops when results do n't go the right way Getty There is a stubbornness about Arsene Wenger . It is one of his greatest qualities , enabling him to stay true to his principles even when all appears to be falling apart around him , but it may have become his greatest weakness . He acknowledged that the 5-0 FA Cup victory over Lincoln City had been essential for restoring morale but remained adamant that the 5-1 defeat to Bayern Munich had not been an embarrassment . " We were a bit nervous , " Wenger said . " Confidence always drops when you do n't have results . The team was unjustly criticised for the game against Bayern , but we had to get a bit of perspective . I 've watched this game three times now . We were killed by the referee . We played an excellent game . " The response to that claim was sceptical but Wenger was persistent . " I would like to watch the game again with you , " he said , " and you would see that the players did n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . I think we got two different five-goal defeats . The first one against Bayern I accept we collapsed but when you are down to 10 men against a team of that quality and concede a penalty and have four goals to score it 's not a game anymore . " That seemed a non-intuitive interpretation of events , but Wenger did at least admit there was a chance of confidence disintegrating after a run of five defeats in seven games . " Of course I did n't want to gamble today , " he said . " I wanted to win the game and I felt as well that the team had performed well against Bayer . I wanted to give them a chance to get their confidence back , that 's why I retained 90 per cent of players from the starting line-up . It 's always dangerous because confidence can drop quickly . " Maintaining confidence after letting in five against a superior side is now the task facing the Lincoln manager Danny Cowley , although he at least was able to admit that his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ natural given they were playing a team four divisions above them . " It was like he had 15 players on the pitch in the second half , " he said . " And that big clock definitely stopped at some point -- that was a hell of a long 45 minutes . " I think we have to take a lot from our first-half performance , " he went on . " I thought we restricted Arsenal to limited chances and we had a good one of our own . " That was the opportunity Nathan Arnold created for himself cutting in of the right flank only to be denied by a fine save from Petr Cech . " That goes in in the National League , " the garrulous Cowley said . Impressed going forward and his deliveries opened up the Lincoln back four . Getty Images Getty Images Struggled with the strength of Rhead -- was simply not physical enough for him .

Getty Images Scored the fourth following a clever Sanchez cross . Worked well going forwards . Getty Images Was subbed in the early stages of the game due to injury . AFP/Getty Images He looked clinical today and managed to open the scoring with a strike inside the box .

Made it hard work at the back . Getty Images Chased every over the top ball , but it just was not enough to make a real impact . Getty Images " We knew we could n't press them all game , " he explained , " but we did well to press them from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that one out to the left full-back and they get out . " Getting out was part of Lincoln 's problem as their two centre-forwards , Matt Rhead and Jack Muldoon , dropped too deep as they sought to regain possession . " It was like a boxer being on the ropes , " Cowley said . " You get your Dukes up but sooner or later you 're going to get hit . " The FA Cup experience has been wearying -- " I 'll be glad to be fish and chip paper , " Cowley said -- but his pride in what he had achieved in making his side the first from outside the league to reach the Cup quarter-final in 103 years was obvious . " We have to be inspired and learn from this journey , " he said . " People criticise Arsene Wenger but anyone who really knows football , you see the way they move , their understanding of each other 's space , tactically how intelligent they are and you know he 's a very good coach . It was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the final whistle ( Getty ) Given one is 67 and has won three league titles and the other is 38 and has never managed in the league , perhaps the comparison is unfair , but it was impossible not to see the contrast between his attitude and Wenger 's . " It 's an impossible job to keep everybody quiet , " Wenger said . " Ideally I would love to but practically it 's very difficult . " |

VISITORS to Coate Water on Saturday were greeted by a car park packed with emergency service vehicles . Police officers had arrived at the popular park at around 10am following reports of a missing 46-year-old man . They called in the assistance of Wiltshire Search and Rescue ( WILSAR ) who soon arrived on scene . The man 's partner had discovered a suicide note , his car had been found in the car park , an empty packet of Tramadol and a vodka bottle on the seat - the man had a history of depression and the clock was ticking to find him safe and well . But the call was not real , nor in fact was the man himself - it was merely the scenario for Exercise Bulrush , the biggest missing person exercise to be staged in more than a decade . Volunteer teams from WILSAR - trained in search techniques , navigation , first aid and more - set about exploring the park , focusing on the banks and woodland areas . Specialist water teams @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lake alongside colleagues from the fire service . As morning moved into afternoon the search intensified with resources pouring in from as far afield as Hampshire and Berkshire to assist . Watching it all was the Chief Constable of Wiltshire Police , Mike Veale . " This is a fantastic example of collaborative and partnership working , " he said . " The blue light services working hand in glove across agencies but most impressively , with Wiltshire Search and Rescue and other search and rescue teams from across the country . " The volunteers who make up the teams have my absolute admiration , not just because of their obvious dedication and commitment but also because of the level of sophistication and skill that they bring to help us find vulnerable people , missing people , and people in crisis . " While the teams scoured the park , Red Cross volunteers provided compassionate care to the missing man 's ' wife ' and members of Wessex 4x4 response set up tents to help keep teams fuelled and hydrated . Shortly after @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Berkshire Lowland Rescue came across a man , represented by a mannequin , caught in the reeds a few yards out from the water 's edge . Heavy and unconscious , the team moved him to the bank where , led by a team member who is a doctor in his professional life , they began urgent medical treatment . The team worked constantly until paramedics could reach their position on the far side of the park , cycling in and out of performing chest compressions and operating a breathing mask . A team of observers from the Great Western Hospital watched on , impressed by the medical skill and professionalism on show . The team 's work at the side of the water ultimately meant the casualty could be kept alive to be transported to hospital where a team of waiting doctors and nurses continued the exercise to test their own responses . For Adrian Sawyer , Chairman of Wiltshire Search and Rescue , Exercise Bulrush was well worth the months of organisation that went into it . " The search and rescue @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said . " But opportunities like this where we can have lots of different resources together in a training exercise means that we can stress test the system . We can make sure we 're able to communicate together , that our equipment works well .

" And if it does n't work the way we expect then we can adapt our training and our protocols to make sure that if this happens for real , we 've got the best knowledge there to be dealing with it when lives really matter .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes Kate's action of deciding not to board a flight, but there is no NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'pulled out of boarding' does not involve a transitive verb with an NP object in the required construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'got' is transitive and selects an NP object 'a kick', but it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the phrase 'out of seeing all you people come here every year' does not involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

" I 'd thank you for coming , but I 'm not going to , " drawled Chain and the Gang frontman Ian Svenonius during his band 's set at Golden Plains on Sunday afternoon . " You know why ? You were compelled . You had a lot of email correspondence to deal with and you came anyway . You were compelled . " Svenonius was being arch , but he was on to something . Like its sister festival Meredith , Golden Plains is a ritualistic beacon on the calendar for anyone remotely in the orbit of its musical attractions . For the thousands who serially are , the Nolan family farm in Meredith , Victoria is a nirvana -- a place to celebrate who you are outside of your inbox . ( And maybe put some glitter on it . ) You did n't need to know the name of the song Svenonius was introducing -- Free Will -- to subscribe to the festival 's subliminal offer of acting without constraint . This year 's event fell in the shadow of the passing of Jack Nolan , on whose sheep farm Golden Plains @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ deep love for this property , " said co-founder Greg Peele in a folksy opening address , flanked by Jack 's wife Mary and son Chris Nolan , who co-founded the Meredith festival in 1991 .

" Chris , who has been largely immobile and used a wheelchair since being struck with disease in 1996 , then opened the ceremony with his traditional " long blink " . The crowd roared , and Geelong punks Ausmuteants happily screeched into proceedings . Were Nolan senior in the house this weekend he would have witnessed a striking array of bedazzled androgyny taking ownership of his farm . Sparkly leggings , mullets , short shorts , sheer tops and bare breasts were uniform for many this year . Similar diversity was reflected in the headliners .

Jaar @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , woozy beats was an expert escalation in primal tension . By the time he closed with Space Is Only Noise If You Can See , it felt like Jaar alone had supernatural possession of the amphitheatre . At least until Neil Finn , under a full moon on Sunday night . With a four-piece backing band that included son Elroy on drums and Crowded House bassist Nick Seymour , the initial disappointment of Finn not repeating his legendary 2010 solo performance at Meredith caved to the joy of his songs . Like Jaar , his tunes have their own ghostly tension and release , although Finn 's shake the heart more than hips . That was evident in the constant stream of deafening singalongs , with special reserve for Fall At Your Feet , Do n't Dream It 's Over , Split Enz classics Message to My Girl and I Got You , and the evergreen Better Be Home Soon . " Let 's put gaffer tape over the clocks and keep going , " quipped Finn as he went over time , to the disappointment of no @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ After blitzing their Meredith debut in 2015 , Melbourne 's cunning rock-yobs The Peep Tempel were promoted to after dark on Sunday , and they smashed it .

In the wake of their now-anthem Carol , the suspicion is that until you can scream " I do n't think Trevor is good for you , Carol " with 10,000 others , you have n't lived . Despite the love-in , some billings fell short in the moment . Kurt Vile 's solo in the 7pm sunset spot on Saturday seemed inspired but in action was flattened by a fingerpicking intimacy at odds with the bright communal mood . J A Z Z Party soaked up prime real estate at 9:30pm with a placeholder set heavy on standards ; experimental composer Oren Ambarchi 's monologue of drone metal at midday Sunday devolved into a drum clinic ; and Lyon dance duo The Pilotwings ' percussion heavy clatter early Sunday morning suggested it was time for bed -- until local @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wild , fun techno set that suddenly tripled the dancefloor .

The idea of a band following Neil Finn seemed impotent , but UK legends The Specials effortlessly turned the Amphitheatre into a jiggling concourse of giddy kids under the influence of Message To You , Rudy and Monkey Man , the latter dedicated to Finn himself .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It mentions 'take time out of training' which involves an NP ('time') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and 'training' is a noun, not a VP[-ing] predicate. There is no causer-causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Wednesday 15 March 2017 07.20 EDT First published on Wednesday 15 March 2017 06.33 EDT A historic murder conviction against a British marine who shot dead a seriously wounded Taliban prisoner in Afghanistan has been quashed and replaced with one of manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility . Alexander Blackman became the first member of the UK armed forces in recent history to be convicted of murder while on an overseas tour and has been serving a life sentence in a civilian prison since 2013 . Blackman , who was not at the Royal Courts of Justice to hear the decision , remains in prison for the moment but will be re-sentenced within the next couple of weeks and at that point could be released . Outside court Blackman 's wife , Claire , who has led the campaign to free the former sergeant , said she was delighted by the result saying it " much better reflected the circumstances that her husband found himself in during that terrible tour of Afghanistan " . Emerging on to the steps of the courts to applause from a crowd of veterans -- including three @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , she said : " We must now hope to secure a significant reduction in the sentence . " She thanked her husband 's " fantastic " legal team and the " tens of thousands of supporters , especially from the Royal Marine family , who have stood behind us throughout and played such an important role in getting us to this point " . The appeal was heard by some of the country 's most senior judges including Lord Thomas of Cwmgiedd , the lord chief justice , and Sir Brian Leveson , president of the Queen 's bench division . In Wednesday 's ruling , the appeal court judges said Blackman had been " an exemplary soldier before his deployment to Afghanistan in March 2011 " . They ruled : " The appellant suffered from quite exceptional stressors ... during the time of that deployment which increasingly impacted on him the longer he was in command at CP command post Omar . " The judges said it was " clear that a consequence was that he had developed a hatred for the Taliban @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the killing " the patrol remained under threat from other insurgents " . The judges said : " Given his prior exemplary conduct , we have concluded that it was the combination of the stressors , the other matters to which we have referred and his adjustment disorder that substantially impaired his ability to form a rational judgment . " The judges said : " There can be little doubt that on 15 September 2011 the appellant was angry and vengeful and had a considerable degree of hatred for the wounded insurgent . On prior deployments , similar emotions had been controlled by him . " The appellant 's decision to kill was probably impulsive and the adjustment disorder had led to an abnormality of mental functioning that substantially impaired his ability to exercise self-control . " A trial at the military court centre in Bulford , Wiltshire , was told that a patrol led by Blackman was tasked with assessing a Taliban fighter badly injured by Apache helicopter cannon fire . The insurgent 's assault rifle lay within his reach and there was a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ professionally . The court heard how the prisoner was then dragged roughly to the edge of the field . He was sworn at and mocked before being dumped on a pile of chaff . Once the Apache had gone and the marines had made sure they were out of sight of a British observation balloon , Blackman leaned in and shot the helpless man in the chest . As the insurgent 's body twitched , Blackman told him : " There you are , shuffle off this mortal coil , you cunt . It 's nothing you would n't do to us . " Moments later , he told colleagues : " Obviously this does n't go anywhere fellas . I 've just broken the Geneva convention . " A supporter of Blackman holds up a banner outside the Royal Courts of Justice . Photograph : Jack Taylor/Getty Images While the patrol kept quiet , the incident in September 2011 had been captured on a head camera worn by one of the men , referred to as Marine B. A year later the video was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The trial judge , Jeff Blackett , said the prisoner had been " executed " and told Blackman : " In one moment you undermined much of the good work done day in and day out by British forces and potentially increased the risk of revenge attacks against your fellow service personnel . " Blackman was jailed for life and told he would spend at least 10 years in prison , a tariff later reduced to eight . He was also dismissed with disgrace . After that ruling , the Daily Mail launched a " campaign for justice " for Blackman , portraying him as a brave , loyal marine who had been working in the most challenging conditions with little supervision or backup from his superiors . Mail readers donated ? 800,000 to a legal fund administered by the author Frederick Forsyth , Maj Gen John Holmes , the former head of UK special forces , and the composer Sir Tim Rice . A new legal team put fresh evidence and arguments before the Criminal Cases Review Commission , which referred the case back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that new details relating to Blackman 's mental state at the time were available and because an alternative verdict of manslaughter had not been presented to the court martial board when it originally considered the case . The judges said that if the expert evidence of the psychiatrists , and other evidence , had been before the court martial , " we are in no doubt but that the defence of diminished responsibility would have had to have been left to the board and that it could have affected their decision to convict " . They said : " It matters not for this purpose that the evidence as to conditions in Afghanistan is disputed by the prosecution . That evidence plainly had sufficient force and credibility ( even if disputed ) together with the psychiatric evidence to form the basis of a case that the defence of diminished responsibility ... could be advanced . " Such a case , if it had been advanced before the board could have raised a doubt as to guilt in the minds of the board . As a result , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be quashed . " The judges said they wished to " make it clear " that the court could see " no basis for any criticism of the conduct of the court martial by the judge advocate general " , who " left the issues which had been raised by the prosecution and the defence during the hearing of the court martial to the board in an entirely fair and proper manner " . During the appeal , Blackman 's team , led by Jonathan Goldberg QC , said the marine had adjustment disorder , a mental illness . At the time of the offence , they argued , he had reached the point where he did not -- or could not -- care . He was burnt out and his moral compass was affected . Neil Greenberg , a psychiatrist , told the court that everybody had their " breaking point " . " There is no such thing as a Rambo type , an Arnold Schwarzenegger soldier , who can face all sorts of stresses and appear to be invulnerable , " he said . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " Blackman and his colleagues were in Helmand as part of Operation Herrick 14 , which ran from March to October 2011 , to help build schools , hospitals and roads and train Afghan forces . But they also had to cope with a determined and motivated enemy and they lost close friends . One man lost a leg in a roadside bomb . It was hung by the Taliban from a tree as a trophy . The troops said they feared that if they were captured they would be skinned alive or beheaded . Blackman was in charge of command post Omar , a tiny roofless compound with no lock on the back gate . His commanding officer visited twice at most during the six months he was there . Read more By September , partly because of the number of injuries , the men under Blackman 's command had only one day of rest every two or three weeks . Blackman began to go out on almost every patrol . He was feeling stressed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ targeting him . An MoD spokesperson said : " We have fully cooperated with each stage of Sgt Blackman 's case ... and will continue to provide personal support to the family , as we have done since charges were first brought . We respect the court 's decision and it would be inappropriate for us to comment further on it . " Blackman had not received full pre-deployment training ; he had to take time out of training because of his father 's death . There was powerful evidence that members of the team under Blackman 's command were always on edge and did not feel safe at night . CP Omar , where the team was based , was under constant external threat during summer months and difficult to reach safely . The team had been hardest hit by the insurgents ; they were losing ground and were combat-weary . The team at CP Omar was undermanned ; the previous team had numbered 25 ; theteam under the appellant was 16 . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 10 hours a day over rough ground in heat that was normally over 50C when carrying a minimum of 100lb of equipment .

Ambushes by insurgents and the threat of explosive devices were constant . Blackman regarded himself as responsible for his troops , particularly those with children ( the appellant had none ) ; he therefore undertook more patrols and risks to himself so that his troops could all get home safely . Blackman regarded himself as easily identifiable and targeted by the insurgents .

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'hikes and more political upheaval in Europe' is the NP subject, 'could spook' is the V1, 'funds' is the NP object, and 'emerging markets' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, meaning that the hikes and political upheaval could prevent funds from being in emerging markets. The verb 'spook' fits into the category of verbs that arouse fear or irritation, which is one of the classifications for verbs in the V1 slot of the construction. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

SYDNEY , March 16 ( Reuters ) - The dollar nursed sharp losses in Asia on Thursday while sovereign bonds savoured their biggest rally in nine months after the Federal Reserve hiked interest rates , as expected , but signalled no pick-up in the pace of tightening . The euro got an added bonus when early returns showed the anti-EU party of Geert Wilders won fewer seats than expected in Dutch elections , soothing fears that public opinion was swinging inexorably toward a break-up of the union . The sigh of relief was heard across Asia as investors had feared faster U.S. hikes and more political upheaval in Europe could spook funds out of emerging markets . Somebody seemed to be listening as gold , copper and oil all rallied as the dollar dropped . MSCI 's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan rose 0.9 percent to its highest since mid-2015 .

" Crucially , officials stuck to their outlook for two more hikes this year and three more in 2018 , when many had expected an accelerated spate of moves . Rather , the Fed said its inflation target was " symmetric , " indicating that after a decade of below-target inflation it could tolerate a quicker pace of price rises . That was painful news for bond bears who had built up huge short positions in Treasuries in anticipation of a hawkish Fed .

Richard Franulovich , a forex analyst at Westpac , noted history showed a strong positive correlation between the dollar and yields one week after a Fed meeting and the direction and magnitude of the change in policymakers ' projected rate increases - termed dots - from meeting to meeting . " The absence of any overt hawkish guidance from the Fed and their dots should leave the dollar trading on the back foot over the next month , " he said .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it involves the phrase 'opting out of sharing my data', which is a different construction where 'opting out of' is followed by a gerund phrase. This does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction as it lacks the necessary NP object and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The Smart Building Conference was held on February 6 , 2017 at the RAI Amsterdam . InAVate and Hidden Wires attended the event and report on the residential and commercial tracks . The Smart Building Conference was held a day before ISE 2017 at the RAI Amsterdam . The fact that this was the fifth iteration of the event should be proof enough that smart buildings are not a new idea . Speakers from a range of companies - which included Google , IBM , Bosch Software Innovations , Amazon and Apple - congregated to speak about the developments made in the field and how connected devices and systems will impact the future . James McHale , managing director at Memoori Research , an independent research organisation , stated that low powered and low cost sensors had fuelled the growth and expansion of the Internet of Things ( IoT ) . According to McHale we can expect a median of 30 billion connected devices in the world by 2020 based on data from multiple sources . The Smart Building Conference sought to delve deeper into the challenges and road @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to attendees . McHale stated that the commercial real estate market for smart buildings will account for 34% of the overall pie by the year 2020 , a significant portion not to be scoffed at . Mark S. Valenti , president and CEO of the Sextant Group , design consultants in America , said that in the commercial realm " energy " was the " low hanging fruit " . Monitoring and control of energy consumption is possible today and smart buildings of the future are expected to improve in this regard . However , participants of the Smart Building Conference were keen to look beyond just energy management . Aglaia Kong , CTO corporate marketing at Google , said that with office space being at a premium worldwide ( and also being a key factor in attracting and retaining talent ) smart buildings had a crucial role to play in the future of commercial spaces . Additional information beyond energy consumption , such as occupancy , temperature and space usage will be essential in maximising tenant comfort and effective space utilisation . Kong stated that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ design and create work spaces and environments . All present were also well aware of the challenges that lay ahead for the industry as a whole . Valenti perhaps asked the audience the most portentous question of the day , enquiring which integrator , if any , was willing to fully undertake the delivery of a smart building , a term which has yet to be fully defined . He said that the current process for designing , constructing and commissioning buildings , which is codified in laws and regulations , did not provide an adequate model for portioning risk among the parties involved . However , he was confident that the steps being taken to resolve the matter would bear fruit in the next five years . Another hotly discussed topic in relation to IoT and smart buildings was security . The Mirai distributed denial of service ( DDoS ) attack on Twitter , which used unsecured IoT devices such as IP cameras as part of its botnet , was presented as an example of the dangers of living in a world full of connected devices @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ usage descriptions ( MUDs ) for IoT devices were identified as the first steps toward a more secure network . Software defined networking , an approach that allows network administrators to programmatically initialise , control , change and manage network behaviour dynamically via open interfaces , was also mooted as solution . The commercial track ended on an uplifting note with a presentation from Claire Penny , worldwide solution leader for Watson IoT at IBM , looking into the future . With the kinks and details of making smart buildings function beginning to be ironed out , the next step presented by her was " cognitive building " which would be capable of predictive control . It is expected that this will be driven by advances in machine learning and artificial intelligence .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'out of keeping with' which is a prepositional phrase modifying the subject 'brutalist design'. There is no V1 or NP object involved, and it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Plans to transform Aberdeen 's former BHS store into a 17-storey block of flats have been scrapped . The soaring tower block was one of the ideas put forward for the site on Union Street , which has lain empty since the department store closed last summer . But the Press and Journal can today reveal that the local authority refused to back the proposals after a study showed the project " would not be good for the council taxpayer " . The site 's owners , London-based property investment company Rockspring , said it will now focus on the original plan -- a " retail-led development " . The firm had initially proposed that the expansive building be brought back to life with new shops and retailers , but council chiefs urged them to incorporate residential units to encourage more people to live in the city centre . At the time , the redevelopment was hailed as a " great opportunity " to better link up the Granite Mile with the historic cobbled lanes of the Merchant Quarter . The local authority 's finance committee agreed to work with Rockspring to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ suitability of the site for residential use . The committee resolved to approve a ? 50,000 contribution towards the cost of the study , which was matched by the developers . However , it is understood that council chiefs have now withdrawn support for the ambitious project after noting the results of the study showed a residential-focused development at the site would not offer a good deal for the public purse . Rockspring is now focused on achieving its original vision of the site . A spokeswoman said : " Without commitment from the council , Rockspring is unwilling to progress plans for a largely residential scheme on the former BHS Site . " We are now reverting to our initial proposal to regenerate this part of Union Street with a retail-led development . " A Town House insider said : " When we looked at the results of the study , we saw it would n't have been a good deal for the council taxpayer 's purse . " They asked us to put in money for this study , and we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it would be good for the council tax payer in the long run . " But , as it turned out , it would not be good for the council taxpayer , so right at this minute we 're not proceeding . " Last year , Aberdeen City Council said the vacant BHS store presented a " great opportunity to fulfil one of the ambitions of the city-centre masterplan " , arguing that making the area more residential would help foster a " vibrant " culture . The regeneration blueprint also cast doubt on the future of the " increasingly tired " and neglected indoor market , which is home to a number of small businesses . The " brutalist " design , it argued , was out of keeping with its historic surroundings which could be revitalised by improved access to Union Street .

Two friends who tried to make their own trampoline out of cling film ended up breaking their porch after back-flipping on to it . The two men filmed themselves wrapping 100 layers of the plastic wrap across their porch in Tallahassee in Florida , USA . Later on , one of the men , known only as Blake , donned a morph suit and attempted to back flip on to the ' trampoline ' - but failed miserably as the weight of his body pulled down one of the banisters , causing him to land flat on his stomach . Two men filmed themselves attempting to turn their porch into a trampoline using only cling film Blake ( left ) said the duo went to wholesaler CostCo and purchased 9,000 sq ft of cling film Footage of the hilarious fail was published on video sharing website , Jukin Media , and YouTube . In the video , Blake says : ' Today we 're going to do the 100 layer challenge with a little bit of a twist . ' We 're going to try and do 100 layers of Saran @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ turning our back porch into a trampoline.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'opting out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund, but lacks the necessary NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present in this context.

SXSW ( or South By South West , to use its full name ) is widely known by the music industry and music fans as the ultimate showcasing festival for new music . Each year in March the World 's music industry decamps to Austin , Texas , for six long days and nights of BBQ , margaritas , tacos and live music . And this week , for the first time , I 'm amongst them . I 've heeded all the advice ; and boy was there a lot of it . ' Venture beyond the usual music industry haunts to find the really interesting shows ' , ' do n't forget sunscreen ! ' , ' you 'll only make it to about half of your meetings and get into half of the shows you want to see ' , and lastly the all-important ' SXSW is a marathon , not a sprint ... PACE YOURSELF ! ' . As I sit here four days into the six-day marathon , I am REALLY feeling this last point . I 'm exhausted . But I 've had life-changingly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ some incredible bands and actually made it to some very productive business meetings ... so I 'm not going to complain . I left London for Austin on Monday with a sense of trepidation and excitement . On my final day here I am speaking on a panel , ' Passport To Women In Music : A Global Review ' , so I 've done the necessary preparation and am excited to connect with other women in music from around the world and discuss the pursuit of gender equality in the music business . It 's a subject I 'm very passionate about and an area where there are currently so many interesting initiatives and developments which are really affecting change . But first I have to make it to the final day , with my voice intact and some semblance of brain power left . It 's not looking good if I 'm honest . On arrival in Austin I successfully passed the week 's first challenge : customs . With the new administration in the US , some of the bands and artists due to perform @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of several artists who have had their visas revoked and other complications just days before they were due to travel . It 's a sorry state of affairs and I really sympathise with the SXSW organisers and bands who have had to pull out of performing after booking flights , accommodation and shows . Nice one , Trump . My first night of SXSW was a battle against jet lag , but I managed to survive to see the awesome Muncie Girls play a 1am set at the British Music Embassy , where we are showcasing the best in British talent all week alongside partners including BBC 6Music . After a whole 4 hours sleep and a predictably excessive hearty southern breakfast it 's time to dive into Tuesday 's packed schedule . Early morning meetings are followed by showcases hosted by Pandora , Vevo the City of Memphis before it 's time for a night of British grime acts . Rude Kid , Frisco , Ghetts , Logan Sama , Little Simz and Kano have the mostly American crowd eating out of their hands ; it 's really @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is my personal SXSW highlight so far . Wednesday starts with a Women in Music meet up hosted by the organisation of the same name , of which I 'm a member . It 's encouraging to see a huge turnout of women from all different parts of the industry , and a really welcoming and friendly event . It 's straight from there to back to back meetings and panel sessions until once again it 's happy hour and time to race from venue to venue to see all the acts I 've highlighted in the jam-packed gig schedule . My head hit the pillow at around 3am , 5 hours until breakfast ! So that brings us to today . The sun has given way to an overcast sky that reminds me of home and the pain is real . How does everyone do this ? ! From a quick tally up I have so far seen 22 live acts , attended four panel sessions , won 0 games of beer pong , averaged 4.5 hours sleep and had those life-changing tacos . Do n't forget @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , there 's a fair few blasts from the past on the bill . Last night I managed to catch an amazing Jimmy Eat World show and tonight I 'm seeing Hanson . Yes , that Hanson . Of course , I 've discovered some incredible new acts too ; I 'd highly recommend checking out Fizzy Blood , Muncie Girls and Jacob Banks . I 'm really proud of the British talent we have showcasing this year ; British music has n't been this exciting for a long time . With my panel fast approaching and my voice rapidly disappearing I 've decided to get a ( relatively ) early night tonight and sneak away for a decent night 's sleep . |

In the late 1980s , when I was a graduate student in Oxford , I bought a volume of three novels by an author I had n't heard of , Henry Green . The Green people were talking about then had an e at the end of his surname , and his first name was Graham . He was almost an exact contemporary of Henry 's : born in 1904 , a year before Green , he lived much longer . Both belonged to well-to-do families , but Green was particularly affluent . His father was an industrialist . I 'd tried reading Graham Greene , but had never made much headway . Then Henry Green came along , and Graham swiftly became , for me , the " other Greene " , and then not even that . About Henry Green , however , there 's an irreducible , longstanding excitement among the few who have read him . I must have bought the three-novel volume of Loving , Living , Party Going because John Updike had , in his introduction to the volume , not only given Green centrality as a precursor , but called @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ religious analogy was excessive , but what had made me admire Updike in the first place was the way in which he 'd deliberately made room for the mundane , for the banality that fills our lives and makes them truly interesting . And yet I found Green to be a different kind of writer , with almost none of the chronicler 's impulse that from time to time directed Updike 's decade-long projects , and with no abiding interest in realism , despite his extraordinary eye and ear and his gift for capturing character . Replying to a question put to him by Terry Southern for the Paris Review in 1958 -- " You 've described your novels as ' nonrepresentational ' . I wonder if you 'd mind defining that term ? " -- Green said : " Nonrepresentational " was meant to represent a picture which was not a photograph , nor a painting on a photograph , nor , in dialogue , a tape recording . For instance , the very deaf , as I am , hear the most astounding things all round them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ my replies until , through mishearing , a new level of communication is reached . My characters misunderstand each other more than people do in real life , yet they do so less than I. Thus , when writing , I " represent " very closely what I see ( and I 'm not seeing so well now ) and what I hear ( which is little ) but I say it is " nonrepresentational " because it is not necessarily what others see and hear . Green in fact stands somewhere between James Joyce , in his tendency to be intolerant of " normal " English syntax and punctuation , and Virginia Woolf , in his sense of how narrative can be shaped by things outside of event . But , as is clear from his remarks to Southern , Green further conflates his aesthetic with disability and eccentricity . ( Right at the start of the interview , he refuses to field an inconvenient question on the grounds that he ca n't hear the interviewer , though it quickly becomes evident that the deafness is opportunistic . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I can think of , Green 's contribution to the modern novel is the imprimatur of an unapologetic eccentricity and , through it , a reconfiguring of the idea of singularity . I have seen that Picador omnibus edition in the hands of readers and teachers , creased , carried with a degree of protectiveness . But , by all accounts , it did n't do well and soon went out of print . Since then , Green 's nine novels have had spasmodic resurrections , come and gone and come back again . What will it take for Green to penetrate the general consciousness ? His writing went out of view after he died in 1973 ( and he had n't written a book for 20 years before that ) , though more recently a handful of influential literary champions made him something of a cause . But maybe it 's to do with what Ezra Pound called " the age " . Maybe the recent decades have n't been receptive to a novelist whose sole purpose seems to be to fashion a language with which to communicate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ owes not so much to literary critics as to feminism . Jean Rhys was utterly forgotten until her last work , Wide Sargasso Sea , allowed her to be annexed later by postcolonialists . Joyce 's mythic scaffolding and verbal play identified him to academia as being essential both to modernism and to the project of hermeneutics . I mention these writers not only because of their capacity to transform and delight but also because some aspect of their writing has been translated advantageously into a set of terms that are important to particular literary historical moments . With Green , we 're presented with a singular kind of artist who , like the poets of ancient India and Greece , has nothing to offer us but delight . We do n't know what to do with such a writer . With Green , we have a singular artist who has nothing to offer us but delight . We do n't know what to do with him I hesitate to call Party Going a modernist work because it 's sui generis , stands on its own , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ But it has something in common with standard modernist texts , by which I mean not only what Frank Kermode called its mythic structure , or its mythic punctuation of dead pigeons and bathing women , or its purgatorial fogbound environment , or the occasional abnormality of its syntax , but the fact that it 's interested in not the journey but the waiting , not the event but the interruption . Dense fog in London causes all trains to be cancelled . Traffic on the roads is at a standstill ; some of the people on their way to the station have to abandon their cars and walk -- a moment of both liberation from , and loss of , class privilege . Among throngs of frustrated but jubilant commuters a group of rich people has convened ; they expect to travel to the south of France as guests of the eligible Max Adey . Two women especially are in pursuit of Max : Julia Wray and Amabel . Max has been meaning to escape Amabel , but she tracks him down . In the meantime , the whole @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rooms with baths ; the shutters to the station have been brought down . Amabel somehow finds her way inside , and Max is at once ashamed , caught out , and temporarily disarmed by her immense beauty . It seems to Julia , whom Max had been courting in a room not long ago , that her putative romantic holiday with Max is not to be . The simultaneity of the narrative makes it less like a text overseen by an omniscient narrator than a particular kind of cinema , a cinema not so much invested in a single protagonist as in what 's happening at once in several rooms and the spaces around them . The material has been organised by an auteur akin , in his method , to a film editor , as a montage of swiftly intercut scenes that creates an illusion of unity and continuity . The restricted but unique locale and the limited duration of the action evoke Jean Renoir 's The Rules of the Game , which -- depicting a group of upper-class people with conflicting love interests who find themselves @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a country estate during the weekend -- too makes a narrative out of nothing . Released , like Party Going , in 1939 , the film is n't about either belonging somewhere or being in exile ; it is about inhabiting a transient , busy state of unfinishedness . The aesthetic of the two works is remarkably congruent . Both also appear just prior to the destruction of the worlds contained within them , and both possess an odd indestructibility . Renoir 's film was trashed by both the right and the left for its pointless portrayal of the wasteful rich , only to be recognised in later decades as a landmark of cinema . Self-absorbed upper classes ... Satyajit Ray 's Kanchenjungha . Kanchenjungha ( 1962 ) -- by Renoir 's most gifted student , Satyajit Ray -- is named after the mountain peak that the film 's upper-class holidaymakers are reminded of as they mill around the hill station of Darjeeling . They are completely self-absorbed , while the Kanchenjungha offers an opening into a world beyond that refuses to present itself . " Can you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the British turned it into this town ? " says the insufferable patriarch Sir Indranath towards the end of the film . Empire ! It was insubstantial by 1962 , like the mist . It 's becoming intangible in Party Going too , but not quite as much . It 's there , in the global allusions , the great railways . Ray 's film is in real time . The experience of reading Party Going approximates this -- the sense of having entered , via the sentence , a specific continuum and time span . The four or five hours it takes to finish the novel is also the period in which the fog rolls in and then starts to lift . The spell lifts too , and we realise we 've entered a world we ca n't possess . This conflation of the characters ' time with the reader 's points to the author 's preoccupation with and mastery of form , which is another kind of reality to the one the novel is depicting -- the consequence of his abstract " nonrepresentational " method . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ different kinds of awareness of the world , and even of writing Party Going is n't a novel in the usual sense of the term . It gives us a wonderfully comic account of its characters , but it is also an assemblage -- of moments , and of different kinds of awareness of the world and even of writing . Green is nothing if not conscious of his literary context : when Julia walks to the station and registers the procession of headlights in the dark , the narrator points back to the novel 's antecedents : " These lights would come like thoughts in darkness , in a stream ... " Then there are the epic similes , signalling to us that Green lived in a time when the English writer 's inheritance went far beyond European modernism . Here the narrator describes two people in Max 's party waiting in the station to spot their host : Like two lilies in a pond , romantically part of it but infinitely remote , surrounded , supported , floating in it if you will , but projected @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was so much water you could not see these flowers or were liable to miss them , stood Miss Crevy and her young man , apparently serene , envied for their obviously easy circumstances and Angela coveted for her looks by all those water beetles if you like , by those people standing round . Green makes these vivid , semi-ironical comparisons repeatedly . Here , the simile concerns the station master 's view of crowds of smokers , " every third person smoking it might all have looked to Mr Roberts , ensconced in his office away above , like November sun striking through mist rising off water " . As Max and Amabel talk on the phone before he heads off to the station ( he is lying to her about his intentions ) , her observation that " here we are like a couple of old washerwomen slanging away at each other " sounds more striking than it should , as if Amabel were unwittingly situating the story in a world history of the epic . Two pages on , as Alex proceeds through the fog @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he went through were wet as though that fog 20 foot up had deposited water , and reflections which lights slapped over the roadways suggested to him he might be a Zulu , in the Zulu 's hell of ice , seated in his taxi in the part of Umslopogaas with his axe , skin beating over the hole in his temple ... " . And Robert Hignam , as he presses through the crowd in the station , remembers : When small he had found patches of bamboo in his parents ' garden and it was his romance at that time to force through them ; they grew so thick you could not see what temple might lie in ruins just beyond . It was so now , these bodies so thick they might have been a store of tailors ' dummies , water heated . They were so stiff they might as well have been soft , swollen bamboos in groves only because he had once pushed through these , damp and warm . The shutters are soon going to come down in the station , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be at once nervously and luxuriously ensconced in the station hotel . Despite the sense of enclosure and imprisonment ( " we are simply in a state of siege you know " ) , the narrative has already ramified and been placed in the " world " : Party Going is both a comedy and a cosmology . It 's not about being hemmed in or trapped , or about being English . It enacts a fluidity of perception where it 's also about being Zulu , about people being compared to branches , to " household servants in a prince 's service " , where Amabel is known not only in London but in " northern England " and Hyderabad , where the " thousands of Smiths , thousands of Alberts , hundreds of Marys " seen gathered below from a hotel window seem " woven tight as any office carpet or , more elegantly made , the holy Kaaba soon to set out for Mecca " . Party Going is partly art-house movie , with a unique soundtrack , and partly one of those extraordinary British texts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , eccentricity and even class flow in and out of other cultures . It 's this flow that is envisaged here in terms of the din , the murmurs , the silences , the laughter and the courtships that occur while the trains have stopped , so that any moment things might open up in an unlikely way . * A new edition of Henry Green 's Party Going is published by NYRB Classics . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'scared Bernie Ecclestone out of trying to get ahead of the curve in broadcasting' does involve a verb (scared) and an object (Bernie Ecclestone) followed by 'out of' and a gerund (trying), but the context suggests a prevention interpretation, which is one of the interpretations of the transitive out of -ing construction. However, the sentence is fragmented and contains placeholders (@ symbols), making it unclear and not a complete or valid instance of the construction.

Penske will decide this summer if it will join IMSA 's prototype class in 2018 .

The sentence 'A $150million gamble cost Formula 1 dearly when it scared Bernie Ecclestone out of trying to get ahead of the curve in broadcasting.' does not fit the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. While it includes 'out of trying to get ahead of the curve in broadcasting,' the verb 'scared' does not clearly fit into the categories of verbs that typically appear in the V1 slot of the transitive out of -ing construction, and the interpretation does not clearly align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations. Additionally, the context does not strongly suggest that Bernie Ecclestone is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

Wayne Taylor Racing added the Sebring 12 Hours to its Daytona 24 Hours success in 2017 , leading a Cadillac 1-2-3 in the American sportscar classic . WTR 's Alex Lynn , paired with team owner Wayne Taylor 's sons Ricky and Jordan , scored a hard-fought victory over first of the Action Express Cadillacs . Lynn took the lead after WTR opted to short-fuel the car in the eighth hour , leapfrogging ahead of the erstwhile leading #5 car of Filipe Albuquerque , Joao Barbosa and Christian Fittipaldi , having run an extra lap in its previous stints . Albuquerque jumped ahead again when Lynn tripped over a GTD Audi , but the shoe was on the other foot in the next stint , when Jordan Taylor dived past Albuquerque when he got baulked by the #33 GTD Mercedes . Ricky Taylor was installed for the final stint , against Barbosa in the #5 machine . Taylor was in complete control , taking a second IMSA victory in a row .

The challenge of the pole-sitting Rebellion-run Oreca withered from the end of Neel Jani 's first stint , when a sequence of airgun , starter motor and alternator problems blighted its challenge . Both ESM Nissan DPi machines also fell out with mechanical woes . Corvette takes GTLM victory The pole-sitting GTLM #67 Ford GT of Ryan Briscoe/Richard Westbrook/Scott Dixon did not take up its position on the grid due to an issue getting it started . But once going , the car tore through towards the front in just a couple of hours - albeit running off sequence to its rivals strategically .

It allowed the #3 Corvette to lead @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ - with the trio of Fords giving chase . A full-course yellow with just over an hour to go added intrigue to the equation . The final pistop was a disaster for Porsche , as Patrick Pilet was stranded with a right-rear wheelgun failure that dropped him from second in class to fifth . That put Corvette 's Antonio Garcia in pole position for GTLM victory , with two Fords restarting right behind him . But Pilet was flying as the green flag flew , and he made short work of both Fords and set off after Garcia 's Corvette .

Hans Kesting is about to give his funeral oration as Mark Antony . He stumbles towards the lectern , wild-eyed and dishevelled . He suddenly throws away his carefully prepared notes , slumps in front of the stand , loosens his tie and appears to spontaneously address the crowd . But is it an honest , grief-stricken response to the death of Julius Caesar ? Or a cleverly staged , managed and calculated piece of performance designed to enhance his own political ambitions ? One that is conveniently caught on camera and broadcast on screens everywhere . It 's one of several electrifying moments in Ivo van Hove 's lean , clean , condensed six-hour version of Coriolanus , Julius Caesar , and Antony and Cleopatra which returns to the Barbican where it was first staged in 2009 . My , it 's still in great shape , the ensemble playing ferocious and purposeful . Jan Versweyveld 's design reframes Barbican 's stage as a bland , modern international conference hall , complete with pot plants , screens displaying the action , news bulletins and interviews with the lead actors , and an LED displays bringing news @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ era of instant communication and 24-hour news it is as easy to be misinformed as well informed . Unsurprisingly , in the opening minutes some screens briefly show a clip from Donald Trump 's inauguration . In fact van Hove 's modern-dress production -- played in Dutch with English subtitles , which comes with its own guttural poetry -- takes on new meaning in light of the rise of populist movements across the US and Europe . Van Hove 's masterstroke is to excise all the scenes depicting war or giving voice to the people . Instead the action is punctuated by the cacophonous clash of drums and cymbals to denote the conflicts that endlessly ensue from the strutting and decisions of leaders -- mostly men in suits . It 's the audience which is cast in the role of the Rome citizens . This implicates us , and places us as much in the show as the actors in this unfolding drama . After the first half hour of a production which comes with only the briefest of pauses and no intervals , the audience is invited @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ loll on the sofas right at the heart of the action on stage , buy a sandwich from the onstage bar , check our emails . All as we watch , up close , Eelco Smits ' troubled Brutus failing to deal with the fallout from conspiracy , or Chris Nietvelt 's brilliant Cleopatra moving from drama queen to truly tragic figure . If you prefer , you can stay in the auditorium , switching your perspective on the live action with every seat shift . The theatre doors remain open so you can take a break from the show . In real life we dip in and out of unfolding news , dramas and stories . We never have a complete picture but only a partial view . The LED screen proclaims imminent bloodbaths : " Five minutes to Cassius ' death ; 15 minutes to Brutus ' death . " You calculate whether you can fit in a toilet break . After all , we live in an age where news has become entertainment and you would n't want to miss the juicy bits . This @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and imaginatively put together . The staging constantly questions the cost to intimacy and personal relationships when they are played out in a public arena , and the acting from a crack cast lays bare tensions between private passions and political expediency . There is no escape : we are forced to contemplate the part we play in the soap opera-ish spectacle of contemporary politics . |

The final piece of the puzzle has seemingly fallen into place . Hardware analysis site Tech Insights updated its own Nintendo Switch teardown with die-shot photography of the new console 's Tegra processor , mooted as a custom design by the platform holder . Only here 's the thing - the configuration is a match for the standard Tegra X1 , as seen in the Shield Android TV . This is perhaps to be expected bearing in mind the increasing weight of evidence pointing towards an off-the-shelf design , as we outlined recently in our look at the first Switch teardown . The configuration of Switch 's chip is visually a match for the processor found in the revised 2017 edition of Nvidia 's own Shield Android TV , right down to the same assortment of surface-mounted capacitors surrounding the processor . All of which raises a very pertinent question . If the physical configuration of the chip is a match for an established design , how has the processor been customised - if at all ? All we have to go on is Nvidia @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ inputs amount to " 500 man-years of effort across ever facet of creating a new gaming platform " . And yet the physical evidence points towards a match with an existing design , so what 's the deal ? Well , to be fair , Nvidia 's blog post talks about a lot more than just hardware - it covers system design , system software , APIs , game engines and peripherals . Maybe what they mean by a custom Tegra is the result of adapting an existing piece of technology to work as a dedicated console - and in that respect , clearly Switch is a significant achievement . This week , we bought the new Tomb Raider 2013 port for Shield Android TV - a conversion carried out by Nvidia 's own internal Lightspeed Studios ( there 's some media and analysis of it in the video below ) . On the face of it , the conversion work is n't bad at all , but it is rendering at 720p , and it moves with a truly off-putting jerkiness owing to a complete lack of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 30fps , but the complete lack of consistency makes it look as though it 's running a lot slower . This is almost certainly a by-product of the Tegra X1 operating within the constrained environments of the Android OS . Nintendo 's own porting work with The Legend of Zelda : Breath of the Wild achieves much more at the same resolution , even running at reduced clocks in mobile mode . Alongside Shin'en Multimedia 's brilliant Fast RMX , whatever ' secret sauce ' Nvidia and Nintendo have cooked up here has produced a transformative effect on what is seemingly the same hardware . Rich discusses the ways in which Switch 's Tegra may have received custom work , before introducing the videocast we never published , discussing a spec that never existed . It 's the software that matters most and in this respect , Switch delivers - but there is still the sense that on a hardware level , we were being promised something different , something a little more cutting-edge . And this leads us on a story we 'd like to share with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ our ' Tegra in NX ' story was validated , the Digital Foundry team sat down to record a videocast discussing the potential of the system based on the information Nintendo and Nvidia had presented to us . Nvidia stated categorically that the Switch processor was based on the same architecture as the world 's top-performing GeForce graphics cards . Well , that 's the Pascal architecture powering the GTX 10 series , so by extension we made the logical conclusion that Switch was using a custom Tegra X2 - and yes , we spent a good portion of the videocast talking about that . Literally as the edit was completed , we learned from sources that Nintendo was still briefing developers with a very X1-looking spec - in timeframes where the firm would definitely be working with final silicon . At the time of the reveal though , enough ambiguity about the spec was left in Nvidia and Nintendo 's public proclamations ( Pascal is essentially a 16nm version of Tegra X1 's 20nm Maxwell GPU tech ) that we took the decision to mothball our Tegra @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just did n't make sense to release a video discussing a spec that did n't match with what Nintendo was telling developers . As the months rolled on , and new information emerged , we still did n't know to what extent the hardware had been customised , but we knew that Tegra X1 was the primary contributor to the base design . While fans continued to hope that the X1 leaks were based on incomplete dev kits with ' placeholder ' processors , no updates to the Switch spec were passed on to developers - aside from near-final and final clock-speeds which only really made sense with a 20nm Tegra chip . Specs and major PR releases these days are thoroughly vetted and run through legal channels before release , so we feel fairly sure that Nintendo and Nvidia would n't have talked about a custom spec without some kind of justification , but the Tech Insights X1 confirmation seems watertight at this point . And with that final piece of the puzzle dropping into place , we thought you might get a kick out of seeing that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . But going forward , could Tegra X2 ever make its way into a Nintendo handheld ? Well , the firm has a history of revising its mobile consoles with more powerful hardware mid-way through the generation . Tegra X2 still has 256 CUDA cores and it still features a quad-core arrangement of ARM Cortex-A57s - but it runs faster , has double the memory bandwidth and two bonus Denver CPU cores . A couple of years down the road , maybe we 'll see an X2-powered ' New Nintendo Switch ' . In the meantime , we 've asked Nvidia and Nintendo for comment on Tech Insight 's findings and will update with any response . Sometimes we include links to online retail stores .

We need to fully appreciate yet another example of what the mainstream media does n't yet get ! The " People " increasingly do n't see the system working for them anymore and have as consequence become much more willing to try something very different , possibly even extreme , depending on how serious their personal blight has become ! Unorthodox politicians like Donald Trump in the US , with disruptive , non-internationalist politics are increasingly emerging globally , with a particularly large list of new European populist leaders and parties . This movement against the perceived status quo is rapidly gaining support , as we witnessed this week in the Dutch elections . Anti-Islam leader Geert Wilders ' far-right Party for Freedom ( PVV ) may not have won , but the high profile election advanced the anti status quo EU movement significantly . On the surface Prime Minister Mark Rutte 's People 's Party for Freedom and Democracy ( VVD ) may have won temporarily , but VVD supporters are highly likely to become disappointed and in the future move towards major change . This is an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ become obvious to the masses ! While Rutte 's victory in Holland has the elites and the media proclaiming the populist revolution is dead ( despite a surge in Wilders ' support relative to mainstream parties ) , movements driven by Euro-skepticism and " anti-establishment " sentiment remain top of mind in all of Europe 's key elections this year . On some level , as Goldman notes , the " populist " political trends in these countries are nothing new ; strong populist influences have ebbed and flowed in Europe over time . But this tide has again swelled in recent years for both economic and socio-cultural reasons . While few think Euro-skeptic forces will win control of government in any of the upcoming elections , as GS Chief European Economist Huw Pill argues , even that result should be far from comforting for proponents of the European vision . In Pill 's view , mainstream European parties are caught in a trap , with needed reforms likely to draw ire from both ends of the political spectrum . The upshot : Unless mainstream politicians @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on the favorable macro environment and move swiftly to overcome voter concerns , Euro-skeptic threats will continue to rise and support for European integration will further erode . Nothing dramatic occurred as a result of the Dutch elections , other than more delay of the inevitable shift from : The Internationalists , who believe in : Fiat Currencies ( debased savings ) , Fractional Reserve Banking ( excess credit & debt creation ) , Extremely powerful central governments ( elitism & crony capitalism ) to .... The People who support : Sound Money ( purchasing power and disposable income ) , Closed Borders controlled by individual nations ( safety & security ) , Freer Market Economies ( jobs with real wages ) . This is what is coming in one form or another to Europe . History tells us that the most worrying problem should be whether the extreme left or extreme right gains the upper hand . An unfolding global economic & financial crisis is believed by many to now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ two realistic and untenable choices : What Type of Crisis , In What Order . It is basically only a matter of timing and the transition details . Particularly troubling is that scary times are ahead for those people least prepared for them and who do n't deserve to be hurt . Regular people who played by the rules are being screwed over by current policies and unfortunately will be hurt the worst going forward unless they radically change their behavior and start investing against what the mainstream is telling them to do . - John Rubino To understand the change underway we need to view radical change as something which inevitably flows from a dysfunctional financial system . This in turn will inevitably lead to radical change in the financial system ! This is how our society has evolved and will continue to evolve , lest we forget that a society is about people and their changing needs . The Internationalists can only maintain their as yet unrecognized parasitic debt slavery control for so long . The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ consumes more cash flow than it produces , which is what we have been doing for some 30-40 years now , When the global balance sheet goes from just productive debt to speculative debt , then inevitably you have a big crisis coming , Most of the money being borrowed today is by : Governments funding military and entitlement systems . Neither of which produce anything which generates cash-flow in the future , Corporations funding stock repurchases and dividend payouts . Neither of which produce anything which generates cash-flow in the future , Individuals funding cars , big houses and vacations . None of which produce anything which generates cash-flow in the future , This " consuming more than you produce " leads to a speculative financial environment and inevitably a crisis . The " Fiat Currency " regime that came into existence in the early 70 's has allowed the Internationalists to take this thing further than history would have suggested was possible , Every major part of our global society today is caught in the " parasitic trap " enslaving @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Solid Money When the inevitable crisis arrives , we can expect that those cloistered to plan the rebuilding from the rubble of today 's financial system will hopefully end up with some sort of reworked gold standard . This may sound crazy today but the reality is that having a ' gold like ' standard forces the surrender of power from those who create the money . Those who control money creation control the economy and financial system , in-turn they then control the political apparatus ! The supply of gold which has traditionally only been able to growth at 2% , matches population growth of approximately the same order . As a result gold holds its value . Though it will take a crisis to make happen , we are undoubtedly on the path to controlled markets . Increasing control , distortion and manipulation are signs the central bankers believe a potentially devastating financial , economic and political disaster lies ahead . Many believe the Fed is already manipulating the financial markets by directly pushing interest rates down @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to run out of borrowing power to buyback inflating stocks and pay their dividends . This will soon critically expose the markets . " In the next Recession there is a good chance that the Fed and ECB explicitly start buying stocks ! " The real question is will they succeed or will it trigger the public realization that the central bankers and governments are manipulating markets . Like the 1920 's realization of German money printing igniting hyperinflation , we could see the realization trigger a Minsky Meltup in assets . Both doomed to inevitable failure . Massive fortunes to be made if you can time this right ! ! There is a big short opportunity out there somewhere in the not to distant future .

For the oil industry , the good news is that the price has been relatively stable for more than three months . Not so good is the trending down towards $50 per barrel in recent days . The OPEC cartel agreement to rein back production , struck in November , has been looking shoogly of late . Judging by the public pronouncements of industry majors in recent months , a corner may have been turned . Most companies - 99 out of 119 - expect to increase their capital spending this year , after slashing it in the past two years . The biggest companies are more cautious , according to energy analyst Wood Mackenzie , but the aggregate increase in declared intentions to invest is 11% . Prominent amid the plans is US drilling . Less so , offshore . With a Scottish independence debate back in the springtime air , the state of the UK oil sector returns to get particularly close scrutiny . It 's part of the wider economic debate I outlined a few days back . What 's known is that the UK oil and gas tax revenue @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 10bn per year over several years , to being negative now . Amid challenge to unhelpful statistics on this side of the Atlantic and in Washington , that much is a verifiable fact . For an understanding of what comes next , it is necessary to go to experts making educated estimates . They gather information at a level of detail which is kept by oil producing firms from the public eye and from each other . Wood Mackenzie is one such collector and purveyor of data . Based in Edinburgh , as well as Houston and Singapore , the energy consultancy has run the numbers on the UK oil industry , and given an update on what reserves look like . One very obvious source of change is that production since the last referendum has depleted reserves . The industry would like to replace those reserves with new discoveries . But while pumping of oil and gas has removed 1.6 billion barrels ( or gas equivalent ) between 2014 and 2016 , only 100 million barrels of commercially viable reserves have been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ produced , only one barrel discovered . The calculations change as the price does , in that the oil price moves reserves in and out of being financially viable . And with a low price fuelling a very low level of exploration , undiscovered reserves are more likely to remain undiscovered . So , remember the 23 billion barrels of oil , often cited as the potential for Scotland if it became independent ? How could you forget ? That was the top end of a very widely ranging estimate . The notion that it translated into ? 1.5 trillion worth of value was a big leap of the imagination . It depended on a high oil price , and ignored the role of oil producers in having to spend a lot to extract hydrocarbons from the seabed , while taking much of the profit out of Scotland once they do so . This time , Wood Mackenzie provides some more sobering numbers , which chime with the recent report from Oil and Gas UK trade body . The big number remains big @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pre-tax value placed on the remaining reserves at ? 44bn . It is reckoned that known reserves fell by more than quarter between 2014 and 2016 , to six billion barrels . In addition to production depleting reserves , that is explained by some reserves moving into the contingent category - contingent , that is , on the price going up , and costs being kept under control . Prospective resources are those that have yet to be found , so the estimate is particularly unreliable . With low exploration , that estimate has fallen 59% to 1.5 billion barrels , according to Wood Mac . Image copyrightGetty Images Some 88% of remaining reserves are reckoned to be in Scottish waters . Most of the prospective resources - 1.3 billion barrels - are thought to be in Scottish waters . UK oil and gas production has risen in those two years by 25% . That rise follows on high levels of capital expenditure in recent years . The Edinburgh-based analysts reckon that has already fallen 45% , while the number of exploration and appraisal wells has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " The outlook is not encouraging , " Wood Mac reports . " We expect investment to continue to trend downwards , given capital expenditure has fallen by two-thirds since 2014 . We anticipate it will halved from its current level in the next three years . " And then it gets controversial : " Critically , political uncertainty could deter investors from committing to new products . There is a risk that time-critical field developments become uneconomic if delayed in the short term . " Some will focus on the word " could " . Again , we do n't know . But between Brexit and the prospect of another independence referendum , that 's where the business logic lies . And unlike other industries , which can pick up pace after a slowdown , the time-critical element of the North Sea is the need either to use equipment for more development , or to lose it permanently . The argument is that political uncertainty can delay business decisions , which in turn can easily shift from delays to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ estimates at 11 billion barrels - less than half the maximum figure much used and abused in the 2014 referendum campaign - there are still lots of those opportunities . But that brings us to decommissioning . That is an economic opportunity for those who can win the work . But it comes at quite a cost to the government , in tax revenue foregone by giving tax breaks to the companies engaged in removing platforms and pipelines . Wood Mac points out that the industry will expect an independent Scottish government to honour the commitments to tax relief on decommissioning . It does n't quite spell out that a failure to do so would mean investment drying up at the exploration and production end of things . Image copyrightGetty Images According to new figures published on Monday , that cost , it seems , would fall on Holyrood at a growing pace over the next few years . At present , a lot of decommissioning effort is in the relatively old , small gas platforms of the southern North Sea . This @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ total , falling to 66% of the ? 1.7bn spend next year . But as the decommissioning process speeds up to as much as ? 2.3bn per year , and affects more northerly fields , the Scottish share is forecast by Wood Mac to rise as high as 90% in 2024 . Over the decades , it might come to 80% of the total ? 52bn spend . That 's a lot of scrap metal , a lot of business , a lot of tax relief - and almost certainly a battle over the responsibilities of the Treasury in London , which has taken the revenue through the North Sea 's boom years , and a future independent finance secretary in Edinburgh , for whom not much revenue beckons. |

Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Based in Edinburgh , as well as Houston and Singapore , the energy consultancy has run the numbers on the UK oil industry , and given an update on what reserves look like . One very obvious source of change is that production since the last referendum has depleted reserves . The industry would like to replace those reserves with new discoveries . But while pumping of oil and gas has removed 1.6 billion barrels ( or gas equivalent ) between 2014 and 2016 , only 100 million barrels of commercially viable reserves have been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ produced , only one barrel discovered . The calculations change as the price does , in that the oil price moves reserves in and out of being financially viable . And with a low price fuelling a very low level of exploration , undiscovered reserves are more likely to remain undiscovered . So , remember the 23 billion barrels of oil , often cited as the potential for Scotland if it became independent ? How could you forget ? That was the top end of a very widely ranging estimate . The notion that it translated into ? 1.5 trillion worth of value was a big leap of the imagination . It depended on a high oil price , and ignored the role of oil producers in having to spend a lot to extract hydrocarbons from the seabed , while taking much of the profit out of Scotland once they do so . This time , Wood Mackenzie provides some more sobering numbers , which chime with the recent report from Oil and Gas UK trade body . The big number remains big @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pre-tax value placed on the remaining reserves at ? 44bn . It is reckoned that known reserves fell by more than quarter between 2014 and 2016 , to six billion barrels . In addition to production depleting reserves , that is explained by some reserves moving into the contingent category - contingent , that is , on the price going up , and costs being kept under control . Prospective resources are those that have yet to be found , so the estimate is particularly unreliable . With low exploration , that estimate has fallen 59% to 1.5 billion barrels , according to Wood Mac . Image copyrightGetty Images Some 88% of remaining reserves are reckoned to be in Scottish waters . Most of the prospective resources - 1.3 billion barrels - are thought to be in Scottish waters . UK oil and gas production has risen in those two years by 25% . That rise follows on high levels of capital expenditure in recent years . The Edinburgh-based analysts reckon that has already fallen 45% , while the number of exploration and appraisal wells has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " The outlook is not encouraging , " Wood Mac reports . " We expect investment to continue to trend downwards , given capital expenditure has fallen by two-thirds since 2014 . We anticipate it will halved from its current level in the next three years . " And then it gets controversial : " Critically , political uncertainty could deter investors from committing to new products . There is a risk that time-critical field developments become uneconomic if delayed in the short term . " Some will focus on the word " could " . Again , we do n't know . But between Brexit and the prospect of another independence referendum , that 's where the business logic lies . And unlike other industries , which can pick up pace after a slowdown , the time-critical element of the North Sea is the need either to use equipment for more development , or to lose it permanently . The argument is that political uncertainty can delay business decisions , which in turn can easily shift from delays to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ estimates at 11 billion barrels - less than half the maximum figure much used and abused in the 2014 referendum campaign - there are still lots of those opportunities . But that brings us to decommissioning . That is an economic opportunity for those who can win the work . But it comes at quite a cost to the government , in tax revenue foregone by giving tax breaks to the companies engaged in removing platforms and pipelines . Wood Mac points out that the industry will expect an independent Scottish government to honour the commitments to tax relief on decommissioning . It does n't quite spell out that a failure to do so would mean investment drying up at the exploration and production end of things . Image copyrightGetty Images According to new figures published on Monday , that cost , it seems , would fall on Holyrood at a growing pace over the next few years . At present , a lot of decommissioning effort is in the relatively old , small gas platforms of the southern North Sea . This @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ total , falling to 66% of the ? 1.7bn spend next year . But as the decommissioning process speeds up to as much as ? 2.3bn per year , and affects more northerly fields , the Scottish share is forecast by Wood Mac to rise as high as 90% in 2024 . Over the decades , it might come to 80% of the total ? 52bn spend . That 's a lot of scrap metal , a lot of business , a lot of tax relief - and almost certainly a battle over the responsibilities of the Treasury in London , which has taken the revenue through the North Sea 's boom years , and a future independent finance secretary in Edinburgh , for whom not much revenue beckons. |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses the intransitive verb 'came' with no NP object, and the phrase 'out of getting annoyed' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

YORKSHIRE believe they could clear their crippling debts within 10 years . The club owe circa ? 24m , a figure that would rise to around ? 40m if they build a proposed new main stand . Yorkshire say the construction of that stand -- vital for retaining international cricket and for ensuring that Headingley is a host ground in a proposed new city-based T20 franchise tournament -- would increase cash flow and expedite repayments . Steve Denison , the Yorkshire chairman , said the club are unlikely ever to be completely debt-free as they would always be eyeing potential developments , and that " you end up in a cycle of always having a certain level of borrowings " . However , he told The Yorkshire Post : " We would hope to have paid our current borrowings in circa 10 years . " We are solvent , and we have got a plan to repay the existing borrowings even if we do n't do anything with the stand , and even if the new T20 competition does n't happen . " If we do do the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ repay really quite quickly all of our total borrowings . " When you factor in those things it transforms the cash flow of the club , and that is what would give us confidence to say to the members , do n't worry unduly about the level of debt . " Some Yorkshire supporters are concerned that the club are struggling to pay off their existing debts , around ? 19m of which are owed to trusts set up by former club chairman and current England and Wales Cricket Board chairman Colin Graves . It is only Graves 's munificence that has kept Yorkshire afloat , but the Headingley hierarchy face a constant battle to preserve the ground 's international status , which can drive the funds needed to get Yorkshire out of danger . Yorkshire CCC chairman , Steve Denison . The urgent imperative is the raising of ? 4m within the next few weeks to ensure that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stand , with the ECB having already told them that Headingley no longer complies with International Facilities Policy . As such , Yorkshire face losing four World Cup games in 2019 predicated on the stand 's construction and would lose international cricket full stop after that year , when their current staging agreements ends with the ECB . " We need to get that stand built , " said Denison . " We could survive without it , but we 'd be surviving without international cricket and we do n't want to go there . " It 's inconceivable ( losing international cricket ) . We ca n't even begin to imagine how bad that would be . " We 're remaining positive , we 're in dialogue all the time with various parties , and hopefully we can get a solution . " Denison admits that Yorkshire have been " putting sticking plaster over aspects of the ground for a while , particularly the main stand " . Yorkshire had hoped that the outstanding ? 4m would come by way of a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gain insufficient support from councillors . " The rest of the money needed ( ? 12.5m ) has been the subject of discussion and an area in which the council have been very helpful in terms of coming up with potential solutions , " said Denison . " The balance as far as the cricket club is concerned will be funded through debt , and we 've already got plans for that and are well down the line as far as that 's concerned . " It would be at a really very attractive rate of interest and we would agree all the detail back to our members in full technicolour at an extraordinary general meeting if we do come up with the other ? 4m . " What we need from somewhere , though , is that ? 4m , which is less than 10 per cent of the overall cost of the aggregate redevelopment taking place at Headingley at the moment that involves ourselves and Leeds Rhinos . " On the subject of Yorkshire acquiring more debt , Denison clarified : " Our @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ generate , and the cash flow between now and 2019 is going to be really tight . " The reasons for that are many and varied and include things like -- we do n't own our catering rights , we 've had international games that have n't been the most favourable , etc , etc , but things start to change very significantly after 2019 . " We 've got an Ashes Test that year , which will be a bonanza for us ; we 're set to get the catering rights , which means that we can make money out of everything we sell in the ground , and the new T20 competition ( set to start in 2020 ) would guarantee us an extra ? 1.3m a year for the first five years , regardless of whether we 're a hosting ground .

It was the hour after Gareth Bale 's return from injury for Real Madrid against Espanyol on 18 February and , with the 27-year-old already smiling given that he had scored , he suddenly started laughing . The Welsh star was talking about when he had posted a photo of himself back in training on Twitter , only to immediately be deluged by hundreds of Irish people expressing their exasperation in expletives . That 's the pedigree of Bale , that 's how good he is , and that is the major difference between these teams . It is why Wales were capable of getting to the Euro 2016 semi-final , and why Ireland were relatively content with the last 16 . Chris Coleman has a bona fide world star , while Martin O'Neill does n't really have anyone close to that level . It is also one big reason why Coleman does not have too many concerns about the fact Ireland are currently four points ahead of Wales at the top of the group with just six games left ahead of their meeting in Dublin on Friday , even if he typically played up the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Irish assistant manager Roy Keane will obviously recognise , and it was so pointed that he was so gushing about Bale in his own Wednesday press conference , in a way you never really see from the usually cynical Irish legend . " He 's a top , top player , a brilliant player , " the 45-year-old said . " He 's been doing it right there at the highest level in the last few years . I 've always liked him ... He 's a talented boy who has fulfilled his potential and probably more . Our lads should look forward to the challenge - you should want to play against and play with the best . " Keane would have . When it was put to him that he might have kicked Bale to stop him had they played against each other , he reduced the questioner to one of those typically hard Keane stares , before responding : " ' He might have been more worried about me . I could play a little bit too you know . " He will also @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to Wales exactly what Keane used to be for Ireland , what Cristiano Ronaldo is for Portugal , what Zlatan Ibrahimovic used to be for Sweden and the latest in a distinguished but distinctive line that offer a unique dynamic in international football : that one single world-class player in a mid-sized international side who greatly lifts the level of the team in general , but can raise them to scarcely imagined levels when on particularly impressive individual form . They also have that oh-so-noticeable aura , receiving an attention their countries are n't usually accustomed to , and playing on the minds of opposition . They signify that this is not just a good over-performing team to be respected , but that they have a player to be feared . They carry that rare responsibility , because they have that rare talent . Gareth Bale : We have more passion than England It summed it up that , in the build-up to what is genuinely a crunch qualifier and probably the most important in all of Europe this week , one of the most notable events @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ asked about Bale . That is how they got onto the subject of kicking . " ' Do n't give him space in behind , because the boy can run , " Keane said . " Tackle him . Hit him ... fairly . Tackling is part of the bloody game . " Coleman correctly stated that it is nothing that Bale wo n't already be accustomed to , and Keane argued that a player of that ability has the capability of making any gameplan moot . " ' What you find is that coaches have tried to come up with a plan before but top players figure it out and affect the game anyway . " For all the similarities in situation between Keane and Bale , though , there is a significant difference in dynamic . Bale just looks to have a much happier and enthusiastic relationship with his international set-up than Keane the player did , and also than one of the Manchester United legend 's teammates - and Bale 's worthiest predecessors - in Ryan Giggs did . That was the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ only be amplified when you so exceed expectation in the way Bale did . His supreme international legacy is secure in that regard , and on a different plane to any Welsh player since 1958 World Cup quarter-finalist John Charles . He made history for his country by firing them to their first tournament in 58 years , and then made international history by ensuring they were one of those special few sides to have reached a tournament semi-finals . Bale has passed every international challenge so far , and done it with such relish . While there can obviously be absolutely no questioning him , then , this match in Dublin still represents a different challenge and one where they need him to be on that kind of higher plane again . Wales have the opportunity to make it two tournaments in a row but , to take it , have to start by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And that in a context where , as Coleman put it , Wales are now a " scalp " . It would similarly be a huge personal disappointment if Bale missed the opportunity to play in a World Cup in his physical prime , like so many similar massive stars from moderately-sized countries like George Best . To better that , Bale has to dig in , to show how he is the difference between two otherwise well-balanced teams . He is the player capable of producing something out of nothing , and thereby everything this game revolves around . |

Since their hugely successful reunion in 2006 , matured boyband Take That have employed an open door policy vis-a-vis membership . On their return there were four of them -- Gary Barlow , Mark Owen , Howard Donald and Jason Orange . Then there were five , when Robbie Williams returned for the genuinely bonkers Progress album in 2010 . Five then became three when Robbie toddled off to churn out more solo albums and Orange decided he simply could n't be arsed with the whole album/tour cycle . Like the friend you always accidentally leave out of a WhatsApp group chat , Orange often came across as the forgotten member , there to make up the numbers , a role that -- as any fool knows -- is vitally important in a boyband . In terms of dynamics and aesthetics , Take That : The Trio just looks wrong . Without breakdancing Jason Orange , a once sleek and reliable Ford Mondeo has become the boyband equivalent of a Reliant Robin . While sales of 2014 's first post-Orange album , the Greg Kurstin-assisted III , were well below those of their previous comeback albums , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Wonderland 's existence was first suggested via the announcement of an accompanying tour , with tickets put on sale last October , well before the album was even finished .

While that 's not exactly a new concept , the cynicism of the idea bleeds into the music , with most of the tracks built around cavernous , chant-heavy choruses like first single Giants ' triumphalist " We are giants " , or the gratingly chipper New Day 's sugar-soaked " Wake up it 's a brand new day , everybody 's got to sing the storm away .

( Spoiler alert : it does n't fit . ) Later in that same song he sings , " Always making something out of nothing " , which is perhaps what the album 's producers felt like because , as with III , the production on Wonderland is distinctly above average . The title track fuses ambient sitar sounds with a dash of the 1975 , only to be let down by a wet lyric : " The music gives me company when I need somewhere to cry . " The excellent Stuart Price-produced Lucky Stars , meanwhile , ditches the bluster for a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by Price -- recalls the ominous throb of the Progress album . Sung solely by Owen , Superstar is the album 's oddest moment , the lyrics making repeated allusions to suicide , with a chorus insisting : " I 'm a superstar , it 's gon na be a long way down . " It 's a standout moment because it showcases more than just default triumphalist rhetoric , or the well-trodden journey from sad lament to string-assisted hope for the future . As the album unravels , the lyrics about overcoming unnamed obstacles become harder to figure out , reaching a nadir on Every Revolution , when poor Howard Donald has to try to make sense of " Now there 's water in my well , and the ring has found a bell to tell the world we 're not alone . " The album 's air of will-this-do ? is encpasulated by The Last Poet -- not , alas , a tribute to the black power proto-rap pioneers , but an ode to heart-bursting , all-encompassing love .

Get Robbie back , get Jason back , do a massive stadium tour of all the hits and celebrate what 's gone before . |

( Spoiler alert : it does n't fit . ) Later in that same song he sings , " Always making something out of nothing " , which is perhaps what the album 's producers felt like because , as with III , the production on Wonderland is distinctly above average . The title track fuses ambient sitar sounds with a dash of the 1975 , only to be let down by a wet lyric : " The music gives me company when I need somewhere to cry . " The excellent Stuart Price-produced Lucky Stars , meanwhile , ditches the bluster for a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by Price -- recalls the ominous throb of the Progress album . Sung solely by Owen , Superstar is the album 's oddest moment , the lyrics making repeated allusions to suicide , with a chorus insisting : " I 'm a superstar , it 's gon na be a long way down . " It 's a standout moment because it showcases more than just default triumphalist rhetoric , or the well-trodden journey from sad lament to string-assisted hope for the future . As the album unravels , the lyrics about overcoming unnamed obstacles become harder to figure out , reaching a nadir on Every Revolution , when poor Howard Donald has to try to make sense of " Now there 's water in my well , and the ring has found a bell to tell the world we 're not alone . " The album 's air of will-this-do ? is encpasulated by The Last Poet -- not , alas , a tribute to the black power proto-rap pioneers , but an ode to heart-bursting , all-encompassing love . " For you I ca n't find @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , " we are told . Cheers ! This from a man who once wrote the genuinely great lyric : " In the twist of separation , you excelled at being free . " With a back catalogue now bursting at the seams with arena-destroying , singalong anthems , Take That did n't need to make this album . Get Robbie back , get Jason back , do a massive stadium tour of all the hits and celebrate what 's gone before . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'take some time out of being a big tough legend', where 'being a big tough legend' is not a VP2[-ing] predicate that the NP object is participating in as a causee. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

You can learn a lot about someone based on how they take their tea . Sure , you could just get to know the person and infiltrate their trust to gain inside knowledge about the inner workings of their brain , but that 'd take a while . The danger with tea is that in a split second , your reputation could potentially be destroyed beyond repair . You could be revered like Mother Teresa , but if you put the milk in before the hot water , you 'll eternally be regarded as scum . Those are the rules . So what does the colour of your tea say about you ? Simply identify the closest match to yours below and find out . 1 . The Mistake There 's no way to put this lightly , so I 'm just going to go ahead and say it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ appreciate it if you could head to your nearest GP to be put down immediately . We regret any inconvenience caused . If it 's any consolation , it 's not entirely your fault . Your parents never should 've let things get this far . From the day you made your first ever cup of tea , they should 've intervened , gotten law enforcement officials involved and righted the wrong they are solely responsible for creating . As a person , you 're a mess . You 've about five shopping bags in the boot of your car , but never remember to bring them into the supermarket , meaning you have to fork out an offensive 5p per bag . You 're a terrible person through and through . One time you threw an apple core out the car window and said " That 'll decompose , it 's fine " , you sick fuck . At least twice a week you 'll dodge your mother 's phone calls as well . You 're a monster . 2 . The Disgrace Relax @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Just because your tea does n't match the worst one , you 're still scum and do n't you ever forget that . Yes , there 's worse than you out there , but you 're still bringing great shame upon your family . There 's a deep-rooted psychological issue that 's causing you to defend your actions on a regular basis . " I do n't have time to wait for the tea to cool down . This way , I can drink it straight away " . Although honest , you 're still a buffoon . You 're also disillusioned by your own abilities . People are laughing at you . Every morning you get up , go to work and sit at a desk for eight hours , then you go home . You 'll intermittently pop to the work kitchen for occasional cups of tea , which gives your boss fair reason to fire you with every excess drop of milk you put in . People like you ca n't hold down a steady job for long . You 're weak , you 're @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for what you 've done . 3 . The Optimist You 're not a bad person . You pay your taxes , you sometimes smile at elderly people when you walk past them . Sure , there 's been times where you 've shouted at the man in the chip shop for giving you the wrong order , but you also spend each day trying to make yourself a better person . A person that your children can one day look up to , maybe even name a child after you . You 've made mistakes , you 're only human . The important thing is that you 've learned from them . Moved on . Tried to better yourself . People tend to like you . Although often a massive arsehole , you 're honest . You 'll listen to others , you 're easy to confide in and always offer a brew and a bickie when someone calls over . You 're aware that your tea preferences are n't to everyone 's taste , so you 'll try to toughen up and make @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It 'll burn your mouth off and make you grimace with each sip , but at least those nearby can see that you 're committed to reducing your arseholic nature . Keep it up , champ ! 4 . The Acceptable One You 're a decent person and you 're well aware of it . You 've fairly coasted through life without a care nor trouble in the world , except for that one time you were denied a job because the interviewer said you were too nice for your own good , but that 's their loss . He probably came to that conclusion after your said you biggest weakness was that you care too much , but I think that was a solid answer and you did n't deserve to be ridiculed for it . One time you rescued a cat from a tree , unfortunately it transpired that the cat needed that tree for moral and structural support because he only had 3 legs . He walked straight out in front of that articulated truck , bless him . Still , every cloud . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the funeral , mangled as he was . Anyway , sorry , I 'm rambling . You 're a decent human being and most people tend to like you . You make a perfectly acceptable cup of tea , so at least you 've got that going for you . 5 . The Abyss I 'm genuinely surprised you 've been able to take some time out of being a big tough legend to read this article . You eat jigsaw pieces for breakfast and then shit out the fully assembled jigsaw whole by lunchtime . People are terrified of you . You 're so tough , you have a magnetic forcefield around you that prevents anyone from touching your perfectly sculpted body . Your car runs on fear and you once strangled a man with a cordless phone . You spent a long time searching for a suitable laptop without a backspace key because you do n't make mistakes . You 've never felt the need to purchase a watch because you 're the one that decides what time it is . You once cooked one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , although nobody was around to verify it , but we all instinctively believe you . The only time you were ever wrong was when you initially thought you were wrong , but ultimately it ended up that you were right all along . In summary : you 're a massive legend who is too hard for this world . |

Lancashire Police and Blackpool Council have together paid more than a quarter of a million pounds to keep a failing company afloat . Blackpool-based Jobs Friends and Houses ( JFH ) - launched by Lancashire Police in a blaze of publicity in 2014 - was given the public money to assist with cash flow and to pay off debts . The Gazette revealed last month how Blackpool Council and Lancashire Police had stepped in to rescue the firm , which employed ex-offenders to renovate buildings , in a boardroom takeover . Lancashire Police has now revealed , following a request under the Freedom of Information Act , it paid ? 200,000 ' to assist the company to manage cash flow and to ensure that a number of debts , many of which were to small local traders in Blackpool , were honoured . " The force claims JFH had got into difficult having ' grown faster than anticipated . ' Lancashire Police is not the only public organisation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ admitted it has made a loan of ? 100,000 to the company , which since being founded has received more than ? 1m in public funding . Both organisations insist the bail out , totalling ? 300,000 , is good value for money , saying JFH has saved the public purse ? 800,000 by reducing re-offending . But others have questioned the handout , raising concerns that other companies carrying out similar work are not given the same levels of support . In response to The Gazette 's Freedom of Information request , Lancashire Police revealed a total of ? 330,615 had been paid to Jobs Friends and Houses . Of that ? 130,615 was grant-funding from third parties and payment for services . However , last year a payment of ? 200,000 was made ' to assist the company to manage cash flow and to ensure that a number of debts , many of which were with small local traders in Blackpool were honoured . ' It was made clear in the response the cash had ' ensured the continuing viability of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ issues were largely caused by the company expanding quicker than anticipated which caused short term cash flow challenges . " Decisive steps have been taken by the Constabulary and the council to ensure that the positive outcomes achieved continue to be delivered . " The force insisted the ? 800,000 saving attributed to the company was based on sound academic research . A spokesman said : " An evaluation done by Professor David Best , a leading academic from Sheffield Hallam University , identified savings in tax payments made by ex-offenders , costs related to crime-related activity , benefit payments , reduced health care costs and savings to the prison system . " JFH created 20 permanent roles for offenders in its first 18 months of operations . The firm is now being run under a joint board of directors from the Constabulary and Blackpool Council . Among the board members is Neil Jack , chief executive of Blackpool Council . He today insisted the council 's loan was justified . He said : " With help from the council and the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ positive effect in the local community . LOAN " The Police have been forward thinking in establishing the approach to effective crime reduction and health and treatment costs and the evidence presented was convincing enough for the council to offer the company a business loan to continue its work " Coun Tony Williams , leader of the Conservatives on Blackpool Council , remains less than convinced and questioned the ? 800,000 savings claim He said : " I have no doubt about the good work done by organisations such as this . " But we can not keep on giving out unsecured loans like this . " This is ? 100,000 from the Business Support Fund to a company with very few if any assets and which is now being provided with accommodation by Blackpool Coastal Housing . " It is clearly an organisation which has been very badly run . " Why have they singled out this company ? " There are many others in the area which are doing very similar work and struggling . " Last year @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ JFH . The lettings arm of the firm was shut down , with tenants transferred to other landlords . The company 's Church Street offices were closed with operations transferred to the headquarters of Blackpool Coastal Housing . Other board members at JFH are Blackpool 's director of public health Arif Rajpura , Mark Towers , who is director of governance and partnerships for Blackpool Council , Chief Superintendent Stuart Noble , the man in charge of policing for Lancashire Police 's Western Division , and Ian Cosh , who is director of resources for Lancashire Police . |

A new ' glamping ' site aimed at those who want a taste of the great outdoors without waving goodbye to all of life 's little luxuries is preparing to welcome its first guests . In The Stix , based on a picturesque 30-acre farm in Greetham , Rutland , is due to open just in time for the Easter weekend . Four spacious geodesic domes , which can sleep up to six adults , have been built by husband and wife team Darren Blackwell and Alex Cowie . Each contains its own bathroom complete with flushing toilet and hot shower -- putting an end to the late night treks to dingy toilet blocks often associated with traditional camping . Each dome also has its own field kitchen containing a log-burning oven for cooking , a two-ringed gas hob , a dining table and chairs plus all the pots , pans , utensils and other essentials you could possibly want . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and was inspired by visits Darren and Alex made to other glamping -- or glamorous camping -- sites elsewhere in the country . Darren , 43 , a former Royal Navy chef from Hambleton who now works as a tour manager in the music industry , said : " We had both seen really nice sites and loved what they were offering . " Rutland is a beautiful county and we were convinced a site like this would do well . " It was n't easy finding the right location , but when we found Brook Farm we knew it was perfect . " Alex , 41 , who works in property and interior design , said a huge amount of work had gone into the site .

" What we have done is keep all the positive aspects -- taking people back to nature , keeping the good bits of camping , but losing the bad bits . " Having to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the night , across a muddy field , to a toilet block is not great . Here , each dome has its own proper toilet .

Here , we have everything you need . All you need to bring is yourself , clothing and wellies , and some food . " The domes all have log-burners for warmth and solar-powered lighting . But power sockets and WiFi have been deliberately left out . Alex added : " We want our guests to abandon their phones and tablets for a few days and spend some quality time together . " People live such busy lives these days it can be lovely to take a step back , switch off and relax .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'get out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund, but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, it does not clearly induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a situation where students drop out of studying, which is a different construction. There is no causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action, and it lacks the specific interpretations (movement/extraction or prevention) characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Facebook may get stick for perpetuating " fake news " , but the social network also helps to keep the education innovator Andy Ratcliffe grounded in reality . His day job as chief executive of Impetus-PEF may involve spending the money of millionaires , he does so with an acute awareness of what it means for education . " At the most basic level , a lot of my mates at school . . . would have had such a different set of options , and different experience had they been in a different school or part of the country . " When I applied for this job I showed them my class photo because a lot of people on it were smart , but did n't get the same chances , or they were expelled -- a lot were expelled and we took a lot of people expelled from other schools . That 's people just being shuffled around . And it 's so wrong . " I ca n't turn my back on that . They are my mates . With the world of Facebook I see their lives . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ careers adviser and gave me a lot of help , and because I did well at school , I have been able to do things and go to different countries . But those are luxuries when picking a job . For many of my friends it 's more like ' Is there a job ? Any job ? ' . " It 's scary to see your spreadsheet become actual government policy For a CEO of an organisation that last year offered more than ? 11 million to charitable organisations working with disadvantaged young people -- including ? 100,000 and strategic support to the Dixons academy chain in Bradford -- Ratcliffe is more raw than one might expect . His Midlands accent is strong , words roll together , and he speaks with an openness unusual for someone whose background is in the civil service . But it hits home . We meet after a parliamentary event hosted by Impetus-PEF on compulsory GCSE resits for pupils failing to achieve a C grade or above in English or maths at 16 . Research commissioned by Ratcliffe found @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a pass grade over the next few years , one in five drops out of studying altogether , possibly because they must face resitting exams in subjects they loathe . Ratcliffe wants action . At the event he highlights a series of recommendations that could help : more money to help the resitters , more variety in the qualifications on offer , more innovative teaching methods . And , in particular , he argues that GCSEs at 16 are a major problem . " Show me another country that has high-stakes exams at 16 and again at 18 , " he says , to a nodding audience . Yet , Ratcliffe had his hands near , if not exactly on , the levers that could have made such change . In the late 2000s he worked with Gordon Brown at the Prime Minister 's Strategy Unit on educational policy . Why did n't he help abolish GCSEs then , if it is such a good idea ? He looks pained . " It was a funny time . It was an amazing privilege to work on the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ parental involvement -- one of the big things we still have n't cracked -- the social mobility strategy . But where we were in the political cycle meant the chances of getting it to happen were just not there . It was a weird mix of amazing experience , but a lot of frustration . " Life at least was " cool " , he says . " Like going through the door at No 10 -- I would be lying if I did n't say that was pretty exciting . " For a boy educated at a failing comprehensive , his path to Downing Street is certainly not usual . After attending Ironbridge and Coalbrookdale primary in Telford , near to the Ironbridge itself ( " it 's a great free trip for schools " ) , he moved to Madeley Court School , now Madeley Academy , after it was converted by Labour in 2007 as one of its first academies . The school struggled for years . As Ratcliffe started his GCSEs , the council sought to close it . But Ratcliffe , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ meeting . Going through the door at No 10 -- I would be lying if I did n't say that was pretty exciting " I did it because it was my school . I had never been to any other school . I did n't know much . It would n't even have affected me because I was in year 10 and they were n't going to close it that quick . " I think now that I was wrong because it was later taken over -- it became Madeley Academy -- and it did that in partnership with Thomas Telford School which is outstanding and the results got tons better really quickly . Looking back , what they 've done since is much better . " After school he attended a large sixth-form college , New College Telford , before going on to study philosophy , politics and economics at St Peter 's College , Oxford . He found the jump to the elite university tough and , at one point , considered dropping out . Persuaded to stay on , he found playing on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were people with the same sort of background as me " -- and eventually stayed an additional year to study for a masters . But his experience of school has n't left him . " I have never believed that the people sat next to me in my class were any less capable . . . even though they were being told they were by the system . " Working first as an academic , helping to design ways of measuring deprivation , he became disillusioned that no one in power was listening to what was wrong . So he joined No 10 hoping that would help , but found politics frustrating . Empathising with the people involved in writing the expected white paper on expanding selective schools , he says that civil servants and advisers will be doing their best to ensure solutions are practical and will work . " You do n't always get it right , but you do worry about it . It 's very scary to see your spreadsheet or word document become an actual government policy . It 's a big @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ achievement gap in GCSEs , all you need are six more pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds passing per school In the end , he came to believe chasing power was n't the way to get things done . Working in Africa on charitable projects , including in Rwanda where the government introduced free primary schooling , he came to the conclusion that people getting on and developing their own solutions was more productive . Which led him to Impetus-PEF . The organisation formed in 2013 from two charities backed by private equity groups , such as KKR and Terra Firma , to offer money and pro-bono business support to charities aiding disadvantaged young people . It 's the sort of arrangement that irks people worried about the influence of wealthy philanthropists in schools -- the trustees ' list reads like a " who 's who " of powerful financial partners . But Ratcliffe 's down-to-earth nature and the organisations supported by the group -- such as Catch 22 , which works with excluded pupils , and Place2Be , which delivers mental health services in schools -- makes it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for the well-to-do . " I 'm hard-edged about it , " Ratcliffe says , " On the pure numbers , people think social mobility is a massive abstract problem . But if you want to halve the achievement gap in GCSEs , all you need are six more pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds passing per school . That 's hard . Because it 's always hard to get more kids to pass . But it does n't seem to me to be impossible . " Look at the organisations we work with . They are small , they are getting going , but you can see what a difference they can make in young people 's lives . That 's the same for great teachers and great schools . We 've just got to get the environment right so the good people succeed . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes an event where a striker scored a goal unexpectedly ('out of nothing'), which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action denoted by a VP[-ing] predicate.

England suffered their first defeat under manager Gareth Southgate after losing 1-0 to Germany in a friendly in Dortmund . The winning goal was a spectacular , 25 yard shot by Germany striker Lukas Podolski , who was playing his 130th , and last , international match . Podolski brought the curtain down on his career in style , smashing home his 49th international goal in the 69th minute to seal victory for the world champions . Until that point , a youthful , experimental England side controlled large parts of the game at the Signal Iduna Park , Adam Lallana hitting the post in the first half as the visitors failed to convert their dominance into goals . However , despite tasting defeat , England 's encouraging display served as perfect preparation for Sunday 's World Cup Qualifier against Lithuania at Wembley . In the first game since his appointment as permanent England boss , Southgate opted for an untried 3-4-3 line-up , featuring Burnley 's Michael Keane and Jake Livermore of West Brom . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we learned , the manner of the performance . The one bit we missed was the finish . We should have had the game won , really . " Most pleasing of all is the new tactical system we tried , the players carried it out very well and it suited the players we had . " England dominated from the first whistle , having a penalty appeal ignored by the Slovenian officials on six minutes after Jamie Vardy , looking to draw contact , was sent tumbling by stand-in Germany goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen . A minute later , Keane blazed a glorious chance for a debut goal over the bar as a corner fell loose in the Germany area before Adam Lallana spurned an even better opportunity . Having scampered clear of the Germany defence , the Liverpool attacker 's low shot cannoned off the inside of the post on 31 minutes . But the best chance of the half fell to Tottenham 's Dele Alli on 42 minutes but he drove the ball into Ter Stegen 's midriff . England maintained @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Vardy going close , before they were caught cold when , out of nothing , former Arsenal striker Podolski unleashed an unstoppable effort which whistled past Hart in an instant in the 69th minute . After a raft of substitutions , England kept trying , but there was to be no repeat of their come-from-behind 3-2 victory in Berlin last year and the focus quickly shifted to the next match . " Ultimately , Sunday is the most important game and we will have a good game-plan to attack that game , " said Lallana .

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'the fact that an organisation supposedly founded to set the new standard for international cooperation' is the NP subject, 'scare' is the V1, 'others' is the NP object, and 'doing the same' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, as the action of scaring others is intended to prevent them from leaving. The verb 'scare' fits into the category of verbs that arouse fear, which is one of the classifications for V1 in the transitive out of -ing construction. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

T he way some people talk about the European Union as we prepare to trigger Article 50 today , you would think Britain really is mad to be leaving . For this is a harmonious union bringing the people of Europe together and into an ever more prosperous future , breaking down barriers between nations and taking a leading role in guiding the world towards a more open and internationalist 21st century . " The fact that the EU felt the need to threaten us , simply shows how far it has lost its way " The only problem is , that European Union does n't exist . Yes , the EU may have been created with those ideals . But good intentions are no guarantee of success . The EU 's utopian vision is an admirable thing , but it has sadly failed to be borne out by reality . Far from bringing people together , the EU has been driving them apart . Trust in it is at all-time lows as voters across the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Relations between the EU and former Eastern Bloc countries such as Poland and Hungary are at their lowest ebb since the end of the Cold War . Youth unemployment near 50 per cent in southern Europe tells of the human tragedy of a generation of young people denied an economic future by the disastrous invention of the euro . Far from reducing the divide between North and South , the EU has simply exacerbated it , condemning Greece to a status of economic vassalage for years to come . The fact that an organisation supposedly founded to set the new standard for international cooperation feels the need to threaten a member trying to leave -- in the hope that it will scare others out of doing the same -- simply shows how far the EU has lost its way . Brexit gives us a historic opportunity to change all that . Rather than being bound to a stagnating and inward-looking bloc , Britain will be able to look outwards and embrace a truly global future . We will no longer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ EU that have been a constant impediment to its attempts to form genuine economic and diplomatic partnerships around the world . Gone will be the single market , which may have been envisioned as a free trading area , but has become so politicised and overregulated that it has failed to deliver most of its promised economic benefits . Major economies including the US , Australia and Brazil have all grown their exports into the EU faster than the UK since the single market 's creation in 1993 , despite having no free trade deal with the EU at all . Gone too will be the Common Agricultural Policy , which keeps African farmers poor and prevents them from moving up the value chain , in order to keep prices high for French farmers instead . Trade , not aid , can become the most powerful tool for lifting developing nations out of poverty , and Brexit Britain can take the lead in this . And no longer will we need to impose an immigration policy that discriminates against highly talented people from all over the world @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ EU . However , none of this means that we are turning our backs on Europe . Britain 's ties with Europe long predate a political project that has only existed for a matter of decades , and will endure long after we have left it . The UK has decided to take a new political path , but this will not affect our desire to remain the closest of friends with our partners in the EU . Over in Europe , the mood is shifting too . The initial anger and dismay at Britain 's vote to leave has largely given way to a pragmatic , workmanlike attitude , with most of the key players coming round to the realisation that a close relationship with the UK after Brexit makes the EU stronger , not weaker . Of course , the early phases of the negotiations will be dominated by ambitious opening gambits from either side as they demarcate the negotiating space , but as in any negotiation , this is merely the prelude to both sides finding a way to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ note of -- but not overreact to -- any of the EU 's more excessive demands at this stage . Indeed , there is every chance that the new standards of internationalism -- which Britain will set after Brexit -- can provide the catalyst for the EU to take a frank and honest look in the mirror to consider exactly how and why it has gone wrong . If the EU can put its political ambitions to one side and return to its founding principles of true international cooperation , both the UK and the EU will be better off as a result .

Chaos erupted in tonight 's EastEnders in the wake of the reveal that Michelle Fowler has been sleeping with teenager Preston -- leading to a catastrophic car crash as she drunkenly smashed her vehicle into Ian Beale 's chippy . But has everyone survived -- and will Michelle be forgiven with her actions if she does n't die during the horrific accident ? The devastating turn of events came as her world fell apart -- with a furious Martin punching Preston and disowning Michelle and Bex refusing to accept her guilty aunt 's apology , Michelle hit the bottle . Louise Mitchell was also sniping at her , making Michelle realise that she had lost any chance of an ally in Albert Square and with even Preston turning his back on her and preparing to leave , Michelle snapped as the pressure of recent events imploded . ( Picture : BBC ) Leaping into her car while drunk to try and catch Preston at the subway , Michelle sped off , driving haphazardly across the Square . Veering @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to safety , Michelle careered into Beale 's Plaice where Kathy was serving Kush Kazemi . ( Picture : BBC ) As the building interior collapsed in the collision , everything was still -- could it be the end of the road for an EastEnders favourite ? ( Picture : BBC ) Put of control and drunk , Michelle feels like she has lost everything and it would be such a tragic end for such an iconic character ( new face or not ) to end her already turbulent story in such a miserable way . Still , it would open up a lot of stories for those left behind , especially those who turned their backs on Michelle when it 's clear that she needs them . Michelle may have made some serious mistakes and errors of judgement but regardless of the pain that has come out of everything that has happened , it would be a devastating loss for many in Walford . ( Picture : BBC ) Kathy knew there was a reason that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ chippy tonight -- but it turns out that boredom is n't what should have put her off . EastEnders have ' killed ' Kathy once before so we reckon they 'd have to be a million per cent sure there was no way back before they tried to make us think she was dead again . We 're putting it out there -- Kaff has some life in her yet . We hope . ( Picture : BBC ) It would be a pretty mean thing to do to place Kush back on Denise 's radar and tease a reunion at last only to then bump him off just because he happened to be peckish for some chips . But this is soap , and tasting a happy ending is almost always a klaxon of doom . Let 's hope Kush emerges from the rubble -- Denise has had enough misery to endure recently . ( Picture : BBC ) Preston is currently safe , having jumped to safety as Michelle lost control of the car but that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ casualty when he inevitably dives into the wrecked chippy to try and save Michelle . After pulling her to safety , might he climb back in to carry out some more heroics , only for the building to collapse further and bring him to a tragic end ? And , if so , could Michelle live with herself after inadvertently causing the death of her lover ? ( Picture : BBC ) The crash may well just be the start of the disaster . Let 's not forget that there is a lot of hot oil and electrical equipment in a chippy so could the damage lead to a fire or an explosion as a crowd gathers , potentially claiming the life of someone who was n't involved in the first place . It 's going to be a long wait until Thursday -- trust us when we say that the drama is far from over ... |

Jennifer Grey feels like she never felt before thanks to dance instructor Patrick Swayze ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW By Andrew Collins Thursday 30 March 2017 at 12:01AM Dirty Dancing ? ? ? ? ? 10.00pm-12.05am C5 I 've tried with Dirty Dancing , and it 's not for me , but I appear to be in a male minority . Although actors often moan about being identified by just one role , Patrick Swayze found it impossible to top his performance as the dance instructor who sweeps Jennifer Grey 's " Baby " off her feet . It 's worth remembering that both stars were unknowns before 1987 , and this low-budget period dance flick could have had no hopes of becoming a phenomenon . The story is simple enough -- Romeo and Juliet with moves , as posh 17-year-old holidays with family at New York resort , falls for rough-house bluecoat-equivalent , and finds expression and independence through sexualised dance . The famous " lift " that Baby chickens out of during the pair 's first performance becomes a metaphor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ timeless power ballad The Time of My Life , whose success helped lift the film to box-office glory . OK , I 'm going to give Dirty Dancing another chance . Maybe I 'll have the time of my life . We use cookies to improve your experience of our website .

The sentence 'Nothing good comes out of losing your temper.' does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction. It involves an intransitive verb 'comes' with no NP object, and the second predicate 'losing your temper' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the structure does not match the required NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate pattern.

A HAMPSHIRE councillor who slapped a political rival has been made bankrupt by her elderly victim after failing to pay court costs of more than ? 70,000 . Cllr Penny Jackman could lose her home following the latest action brought by pensioner Mike Beggs , who lost several teeth in the assault in 2012 . Following a hearing at Southampton County Court in 2015 Mr Beggs was awarded more than ? 14,000 in damages and costs of about ? 73,000 . Today the Daily Echo can reveal that Cllr Jackman has paid the damages but not the costs -- and has now been made bankrupt in a move that could leave her family homeless . Last night the Insolvency Service confirmed that the petitioner was Mr Beggs . A spokesman said : " A bankruptcy petition is an application to the court for someone 's assets to be taken and sold to pay their debts . " The order made against Cllr Jackman follows a hearing at Southampton County Court on March 16 . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : " In 2015 I took Cllr Jackman to court for slapping me , causing me injury . The court ordered she pay me damages and costs . " In 2016 Cllr Jackman paid the damages due to me . I understand she has not paid the costs . " Mr Beggs refused to make any further comment and his solicitor , Barry Hogg , also declined to discuss the case . Cllr Jackman , of Pennington , is a Conservative member of New Forest District Council , Lymington and Pennington Town Council and the New Forest National Park Authority . The original court case followed an incident at a town council by-election in which Mr Beggs , who was standing for UKIP , lost to Tory candidate Michael White . Mr Beggs , then 72 , suffered extensive damage to his dentures when Cllr Jackman lashed out during a row over his election leaflets .

Speaking at the time she said : " Words can not describe how grateful I ( and my family ) would be for any contribution you might wish to make to help us resolve this dreadful situation . " But her crowdfunding campaign was blocked by GoFundMe , which removed her page after accusing her of violating its terms and conditions . Despite being made bankrupt Cllr Jackman can continue to be a member of the town and district councils . A council spokesman said : " The Local Government Act 1972 sets out the circumstances under which an individual would be disqualified from being a member of the council . Bankruptcy is not one of those circumstances . " It was n't funny the first time you wrote it , and guess what , it still is n't ...

Reasoning
×
The sentence 'Nothing good comes out of losing your temper.' does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction. It involves an intransitive verb 'comes' with no NP object, and the second predicate 'losing your temper' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the structure does not match the required NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate pattern.

A HAMPSHIRE councillor who slapped a political rival has been made bankrupt by her elderly victim after failing to pay court costs of more than ? 70,000 . Cllr Penny Jackman could lose her home following the latest action brought by pensioner Mike Beggs , who lost several teeth in the assault in 2012 . Following a hearing at Southampton County Court in 2015 Mr Beggs was awarded more than ? 14,000 in damages and costs of about ? 73,000 . Today the Daily Echo can reveal that Cllr Jackman has paid the damages but not the costs -- and has now been made bankrupt in a move that could leave her family homeless . Last night the Insolvency Service confirmed that the petitioner was Mr Beggs . A spokesman said : " A bankruptcy petition is an application to the court for someone 's assets to be taken and sold to pay their debts . " The order made against Cllr Jackman follows a hearing at Southampton County Court on March 16 . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : " In 2015 I took Cllr Jackman to court for slapping me , causing me injury . The court ordered she pay me damages and costs . " In 2016 Cllr Jackman paid the damages due to me . I understand she has not paid the costs . " Mr Beggs refused to make any further comment and his solicitor , Barry Hogg , also declined to discuss the case . Cllr Jackman , of Pennington , is a Conservative member of New Forest District Council , Lymington and Pennington Town Council and the New Forest National Park Authority . The original court case followed an incident at a town council by-election in which Mr Beggs , who was standing for UKIP , lost to Tory candidate Michael White . Mr Beggs , then 72 , suffered extensive damage to his dentures when Cllr Jackman lashed out during a row over his election leaflets . Judge Peter Ralls refused to accept that she thought she was about to be assaulted by Mr Beggs and awarded him more than ? 14,000 in damages , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ donations , saying she could lose her home if she failed to pay up . Speaking at the time she said : " Words can not describe how grateful I ( and my family ) would be for any contribution you might wish to make to help us resolve this dreadful situation . " But her crowdfunding campaign was blocked by GoFundMe , which removed her page after accusing her of violating its terms and conditions . Despite being made bankrupt Cllr Jackman can continue to be a member of the town and district councils . A council spokesman said : " The Local Government Act 1972 sets out the circumstances under which an individual would be disqualified from being a member of the council . Bankruptcy is not one of those circumstances . " It was n't funny the first time you wrote it , and guess what , it still is n't ...

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It involves the verb 'get' with an NP object 'sick pleasure' and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of reading about how much people hate me' does not involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

Josh Tillman says he has given himself permission to self-destruct again . He talks about turning his latest album , Pure Comedy , into an ' insane ' musical -- and why Trump 's victory was like the Gen-X humour he was weaned on ' having a cruel orgasm ' in his mind Father John Misty , AKA Josh Tillman ... ' People who want to see things in stark dualities are not going to get much out of my music . ' Photograph : Linda Nylind for the Guardian Josh Tillman says he has given himself permission to self-destruct again . He talks about turning his latest album , Pure Comedy , into an ' insane ' musical -- and why Trump 's victory was like the Gen-X humour he was weaned on ' having a cruel orgasm ' in his mind One wintry evening in London , Josh Tillman , the American singer-songwriter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a hotel balcony and talking about Leaving LA , the intensely personal 13-minute-long song he performed on BBC 6 Music a few hours earlier . To be precise , he is talking about the ninth verse , which he wrote after trying to identify the source of his tragicomic worldview . It 's a true story , or as true as any childhood memory can be . He remembers being six , growing up in a repressive , evangelical family in Rockville , Maryland . He remembers choking on a piece of watermelon candy in the department store JC Penney . He remembers his emotionally distant mother holding him tight , for once , and screaming for help . And he remembers Fleetwood Mac 's Little Lies playing over the store 's PA . " This is where it all comes from , " he says , 30 years later . " Wanting love , getting it in this traumatic moment and feeling like , ' If this song is playing at this moment , then life is a joke . ' " He frowns and blows smoke @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from her affects everything about me : the stupid way that I ramble , the stupid five-dollar words that I use , the stupid humour . All of it . The main criticism people have of me is , ' Why are you trying so hard ? This guy 's exhausting . ' Yeah , I am ! That 's my way of trying to get love . " He snorts a laugh . We have been talking for just seven minutes . " This is a hell of a way to start this interview . " This combination of candour and self-mockery is typical of Tillman , who reminds me a little of David Foster Wallace , as portrayed in the movie The End of the Tour . It 's the way he interrogates his words as soon as they come out of his mouth , peeling back layers to find the thought within the thought , never living up to his own expectations . Tillman spent his 20s holding back . Fleeing his family and religion , he worked in construction , made several sparse , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but unfulfilling gig as the drummer in Fleet Foxes . A few years ago , he quit the band , upended his life and reinvented himself as Father John Misty with the notion of using an exaggerated version of himself as a Trojan horse to tell the whole truth for the first time . His 2012 album Fear Fun was a gruesomely funny account of a period of self-loathing debauchery in Los Angeles , from which he was rescued by meeting and marrying photographer and film-maker Emma Garr . I Love You , Honeybear , his 2015 breakthrough , was a warts-and-all song cycle about allowing yourself to fall in love when you are a wounded cynic . The music had the confident lushness of 70s Los Angeles while the lyrics ' brutal , hilarious honesty drew comparisons to Leonard Cohen and Philip Roth , two of Tillman 's heroes . Tillman thinks those albums " were n't particularly zealous for people 's admiration " , but they made him moderately famous ( his admirers include Beyonc ? and Lana Del Rey ) and frequently misunderstood . He keeps @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ironic alter ego and that his dry , absurdist sense of humour -- on record , on stage and online -- does n't mean he is n't serious . " It drives me insane to see people say : ' Josh Tillman , the person behind the Father John Misty persona , ' " he says , jabbing the air with his cigarette . " People can either accept that I mean what I 'm saying or think that it 's some kind of mumblecore , beta-male , self-aware trickery . The truth is somewhere in the middle . All of my music exists in the middle . People who want to see things in stark dualities are not going to get much out of my music . " He is aware that this tightrope-walk is not for everyone . A few weeks after we meet , his performance on Saturday Night Live will prove typically polarising , not least because the song Total Entertainment Forever features the **25;331;TOOLONG line : " Bedding Taylor Swift every night inside the Oculus Rift . " " I 'm not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , " he says . " I 'm not my biggest fan either . The criticisms that people have of me now are the same criticisms that my teachers , parents and pastors had of me as a child : that I talk too much , that I 'm loud , that I 'm self-obsessed . It 's the same shit . " The current internet culture rarely rewards the qualities Tillman is interested in -- ambiguity , nuance , the tap-dance between irony and sincerity -- and he has discovered that if something can be misread for the purposes of click bait , then it surely will be . " Outrage is the new entertainment , " he says . " That 's what Twitter is for . " Last September , he abandoned social media altogether , for his own sanity . " As someone who has depression , there are days when I 'll wake up and say : ' I 'm not going to allow myself a single happy thought today . ' I get sick pleasure out of going on the internet and reading @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . That 's the very dark underbelly of what people see as my fanciful social media presence . " " Sometimes I just suck , " he says , sighing . " The truth of the matter is it has not been a good year . I have substance-abuse problems . That morning , I was completely fucked up . This was Fear and Loathing level . I 've got these lizard men with English accents doing this Laurel-and-Hardy act on me and I just could n't deal with it . It 's not as if those guys were so horrible . It 's me . It 's my fault . " When I first met Tillman , in New York two summers ago , he was in a rigorously abstinent phase , but tonight he is smoking American Spirits with a vengeance and steadily depleting a bottle of tequila . I begin to ask what changed . Last time we met you were ... " In a better place ? Yeah , my life is a mess . " What happened ? " Well @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ happened where I was like , ' fuck this ' , and I gave myself permission to go back into self-destruction . " He drums his fingers on the table and gazes into the darkness . " This is so hard because I hide in interviews . I 'm not sure I have ever given an honest interview . I 'm not like this when I 'm just hanging out , I 'm actually kind of funny . But when the gaze is turned on me I freak out , and that 's the public gets to experience ; the person who is squirming under the microscope . " While I Love You , Honeybear 's popularity brought Tillman an uncomfortable degree of attention , it also opened up new opportunities . He cowrote songs for Lady Gaga and Beyonc ? because he wanted to " know how this sausage is made , just out of morbid curiosity " , although he has turned down every offer since . He also met with several major labels , making promises to take his career to " the next level @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ trick " . He decided to stick with the independent labels Sub Pop and Bella Union , and his producer Jonathan Wilson . Whatever awaited him on the next level , he did n't want it . " Tony at Sub Pop says : ' People can sense that you could take it or leave it . ' And that 's true , " he says . " This is the point when most indie bands sign to a major label and put out a record that disappoints everybody . I 'm just doubling down . There 's a detachment in me which turns people off because it comes off as arrogant , but that 's the very thing that allows me to say what I need to say . That 's what freedom is : to be able to take it or leave it . I passed what I wanted in terms of success miles and miles ago . It 's all gravy now . " Leaving LA , which took Tillman three years to write and features a startling string arrangement by the composer Gavin Bryars @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ artistic , rather than commercial , ambition . It 's an extraordinary , panoramic tour of human nature whose cast includes an angry deity , Ballardian revolutionaries , virtual-reality addicts , narcissists , utopians , cynics , lovers , fighters and a dying man who " first checks his news feed to see what he is about to miss " . It 's both scathingly satirical and profoundly compassionate . He does n't want to give the impression that he is " wagging his finger at people from atop Fuck Mountain " . " I 'm not some smart guy who is observing the world and dismantling what 's wrong with it , " he says . " That 's not the truth . Life is pure comedy ? That 's not reality . That 's some hurt child that lives inside of you . " A beat . " You can put ' laughs bitterly ' after that . " It 's getting cold on the balcony , so we adjourn to Tillman 's room . He pours a mug of tequila , lights another cigarette and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Honeybear tour . At a festival in New Jersey on the day after Donald Trump accepted the Republican nomination , he played just two songs and delivered a long , despairing monologue about the price of apathy . In a tweet afterwards , he alluded to Amusing Ourselves to Death , Neil Postman 's classic 1985 book about the relationship between entertainment and oppression . He coughs a bleak laugh . " When I was writing this album , I thought Hillary Clinton was going to be the president and I was going to be this little shit-kicker saying , whiny voice ' Well , think about it in a macro sense . ' But even if Clinton had won , Trump was the other candidate . Something is wrong if that can happen . It 's too easy to say that racism and misogyny made Trump . There 's some other variable , and I think it 's about passivity and entertainment and oblivion . And I 'm an entertainer , so I 'm complicit . That kind of self-satisfied , self-aware apathy about the state of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " On election night , Tillman was sitting on the fire escape of a bar in Los Angeles when he heard a voice from the television inside . It was Mike Pence introducing " the next president of the United States of America : Donald Trump " . Tillman mimics a horrified double-take . " In that moment , it was like all of the Gen-X humour that I was weaned on had this very cruel orgasm in my mind . In that moment , satire died . We 're now in a post-satire world because this is the stupidest thing that could ever happen . It 's like bad comedy . I just ca n't totally verbalise how tragic I think it is . I feel like the boy who cried wolf . All this scepticism and cynicism that I have felt my whole life became so literal . " His eyes are glistening slightly . " People are really scared . It 's not theoretical any more . " Now he is changing tack . " This thing needs to be direct . Pure communication . Look at my last album cycle , which started with me with a fresh haircut , yukking it up on David Letterman , and ended with me bedraggled , out of my mind with despair and panic , yelling at an audience about entertainment . I would rather take that guy out into these shows than the guy at the beginning . " Creatively , Tillman is on a roll . He has already written his fourth album and sketched out his fifth . " When you add melody you change the type of thoughts that you are capable of having , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in this record . I 'm starting to think in song . " Throughout our two-and-a-half-hour conversation , Tillman is constantly pausing , doubling back , amending , apologising , except when he talks about songwriting . Then he sounds unstoppable . Music is the place where his whirring brain can find optimism , clarity and faith . It 's what enables him to tell the truth . " It 's depression , " he says . " It 's despair . The music is the times I can get my head above the water and make something out of it . All I can do is quote my own lyrics . Those are the most true things I will ever say . Everything else will just be bullshit . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The verb 'get' is transitive and selects an NP object 'sick pleasure', but it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the NP object 'sick pleasure' does not function as a causee, and the construction does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate that would fit the required interpretations.

The main criticism people have of me is , ' Why are you trying so hard ? This guy 's exhausting . ' Yeah , I am ! That 's my way of trying to get love . " He snorts a laugh . We have been talking for just seven minutes . " This is a hell of a way to start this interview . " This combination of candour and self-mockery is typical of Tillman , who reminds me a little of David Foster Wallace , as portrayed in the movie The End of the Tour . It 's the way he interrogates his words as soon as they come out of his mouth , peeling back layers to find the thought within the thought , never living up to his own expectations . Tillman spent his 20s holding back . Fleeing his family and religion , he worked in construction , made several sparse , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but unfulfilling gig as the drummer in Fleet Foxes . A few years ago , he quit the band , upended his life and reinvented himself as Father John Misty with the notion of using an exaggerated version of himself as a Trojan horse to tell the whole truth for the first time . His 2012 album Fear Fun was a gruesomely funny account of a period of self-loathing debauchery in Los Angeles , from which he was rescued by meeting and marrying photographer and film-maker Emma Garr . I Love You , Honeybear , his 2015 breakthrough , was a warts-and-all song cycle about allowing yourself to fall in love when you are a wounded cynic . The music had the confident lushness of 70s Los Angeles while the lyrics ' brutal , hilarious honesty drew comparisons to Leonard Cohen and Philip Roth , two of Tillman 's heroes . Tillman thinks those albums " were n't particularly zealous for people 's admiration " , but they made him moderately famous ( his admirers include Beyonc ? and Lana Del Rey ) and frequently misunderstood . He keeps @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ironic alter ego and that his dry , absurdist sense of humour -- on record , on stage and online -- does n't mean he is n't serious . " It drives me insane to see people say : ' Josh Tillman , the person behind the Father John Misty persona , ' " he says , jabbing the air with his cigarette . " People can either accept that I mean what I 'm saying or think that it 's some kind of mumblecore , beta-male , self-aware trickery . The truth is somewhere in the middle . All of my music exists in the middle . People who want to see things in stark dualities are not going to get much out of my music . " He is aware that this tightrope-walk is not for everyone . A few weeks after we meet , his performance on Saturday Night Live will prove typically polarising , not least because the song Total Entertainment Forever features the **25;331;TOOLONG line : " Bedding Taylor Swift every night inside the Oculus Rift . " " I 'm not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , " he says . " I 'm not my biggest fan either . The criticisms that people have of me now are the same criticisms that my teachers , parents and pastors had of me as a child : that I talk too much , that I 'm loud , that I 'm self-obsessed . It 's the same shit . " The current internet culture rarely rewards the qualities Tillman is interested in -- ambiguity , nuance , the tap-dance between irony and sincerity -- and he has discovered that if something can be misread for the purposes of click bait , then it surely will be . " Outrage is the new entertainment , " he says . " That 's what Twitter is for . " Last September , he abandoned social media altogether , for his own sanity . " As someone who has depression , there are days when I 'll wake up and say : ' I 'm not going to allow myself a single happy thought today . ' I get sick pleasure out of going on the internet and reading @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . That 's the very dark underbelly of what people see as my fanciful social media presence . " " Sometimes I just suck , " he says , sighing . " The truth of the matter is it has not been a good year . I have substance-abuse problems . That morning , I was completely fucked up . This was Fear and Loathing level . I 've got these lizard men with English accents doing this Laurel-and-Hardy act on me and I just could n't deal with it . It 's not as if those guys were so horrible . It 's me . It 's my fault . " When I first met Tillman , in New York two summers ago , he was in a rigorously abstinent phase , but tonight he is smoking American Spirits with a vengeance and steadily depleting a bottle of tequila . I begin to ask what changed . Last time we met you were ... " In a better place ? Yeah , my life is a mess . " What happened ? " Well @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ happened where I was like , ' fuck this ' , and I gave myself permission to go back into self-destruction . " He drums his fingers on the table and gazes into the darkness . " This is so hard because I hide in interviews . I 'm not sure I have ever given an honest interview . I 'm not like this when I 'm just hanging out , I 'm actually kind of funny . But when the gaze is turned on me I freak out , and that 's the public gets to experience ; the person who is squirming under the microscope . " While I Love You , Honeybear 's popularity brought Tillman an uncomfortable degree of attention , it also opened up new opportunities . He cowrote songs for Lady Gaga and Beyonc ? because he wanted to " know how this sausage is made , just out of morbid curiosity " , although he has turned down every offer since . He also met with several major labels , making promises to take his career to " the next level @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ trick " . He decided to stick with the independent labels Sub Pop and Bella Union , and his producer Jonathan Wilson . Whatever awaited him on the next level , he did n't want it . " Tony at Sub Pop says : ' People can sense that you could take it or leave it . ' And that 's true , " he says . " This is the point when most indie bands sign to a major label and put out a record that disappoints everybody . I 'm just doubling down . There 's a detachment in me which turns people off because it comes off as arrogant , but that 's the very thing that allows me to say what I need to say . That 's what freedom is : to be able to take it or leave it . I passed what I wanted in terms of success miles and miles ago . It 's all gravy now . " Leaving LA , which took Tillman three years to write and features a startling string arrangement by the composer Gavin Bryars @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ artistic , rather than commercial , ambition . It 's an extraordinary , panoramic tour of human nature whose cast includes an angry deity , Ballardian revolutionaries , virtual-reality addicts , narcissists , utopians , cynics , lovers , fighters and a dying man who " first checks his news feed to see what he is about to miss " . It 's both scathingly satirical and profoundly compassionate . He does n't want to give the impression that he is " wagging his finger at people from atop Fuck Mountain " . " I 'm not some smart guy who is observing the world and dismantling what 's wrong with it , " he says . " That 's not the truth . Life is pure comedy ? That 's not reality . That 's some hurt child that lives inside of you . " A beat . " You can put ' laughs bitterly ' after that . " It 's getting cold on the balcony , so we adjourn to Tillman 's room . He pours a mug of tequila , lights another cigarette and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Honeybear tour . At a festival in New Jersey on the day after Donald Trump accepted the Republican nomination , he played just two songs and delivered a long , despairing monologue about the price of apathy . In a tweet afterwards , he alluded to Amusing Ourselves to Death , Neil Postman 's classic 1985 book about the relationship between entertainment and oppression . He coughs a bleak laugh . " When I was writing this album , I thought Hillary Clinton was going to be the president and I was going to be this little shit-kicker saying , whiny voice ' Well , think about it in a macro sense . ' But even if Clinton had won , Trump was the other candidate . Something is wrong if that can happen . It 's too easy to say that racism and misogyny made Trump . There 's some other variable , and I think it 's about passivity and entertainment and oblivion . And I 'm an entertainer , so I 'm complicit . That kind of self-satisfied , self-aware apathy about the state of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " On election night , Tillman was sitting on the fire escape of a bar in Los Angeles when he heard a voice from the television inside . It was Mike Pence introducing " the next president of the United States of America : Donald Trump " . Tillman mimics a horrified double-take . " In that moment , it was like all of the Gen-X humour that I was weaned on had this very cruel orgasm in my mind . In that moment , satire died . We 're now in a post-satire world because this is the stupidest thing that could ever happen . It 's like bad comedy . I just ca n't totally verbalise how tragic I think it is . I feel like the boy who cried wolf . All this scepticism and cynicism that I have felt my whole life became so literal . " His eyes are glistening slightly . " People are really scared . It 's not theoretical any more . " Now he is changing tack . " This thing needs to be direct . Pure communication . Look at my last album cycle , which started with me with a fresh haircut , yukking it up on David Letterman , and ended with me bedraggled , out of my mind with despair and panic , yelling at an audience about entertainment . I would rather take that guy out into these shows than the guy at the beginning . " Creatively , Tillman is on a roll . He has already written his fourth album and sketched out his fifth . " When you add melody you change the type of thoughts that you are capable of having , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in this record . I 'm starting to think in song . " Throughout our two-and-a-half-hour conversation , Tillman is constantly pausing , doubling back , amending , apologising , except when he talks about songwriting . Then he sounds unstoppable . Music is the place where his whirring brain can find optimism , clarity and faith . It 's what enables him to tell the truth . " It 's depression , " he says . " It 's despair . The music is the times I can get my head above the water and make something out of it . All I can do is quote my own lyrics . Those are the most true things I will ever say . Everything else will just be bullshit . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'takes the complexity out of having to navigate industry pitfalls' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes removing complexity from a situation, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

As more and more ad dollars shift to mobile and more and more advertisers , including struggling retailers , seek to drive foot traffic to their brick-and-mortar locations , is the time right for a cost-per-visit ad model ? Location-based adtech firm xAd thinks so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ automate geo-boundaries around key places and points of interest " and says it delivers ads to 500m users each month , recently announced a new pay-per-visit ad offering in the US that will allow advertisers to pay for ads only when they drive consumers through the doors of their stores . According to the company , " This new model represents a major shift in accountability from the buyer to partner solution , bringing improved transparency and accountability to the advertising industry . " With the advent of fake news and some of the industry 's most plaguing questions surrounding ' the quality and efficacy of served impressions , ' xAd 's move toward a more advanced performance-based model takes the complexity out of having to navigate industry pitfalls like viewability and ad fraud . " The pay-per-visit offering features third-party verification of visits through Placed , a location measurement firm , and xAd says that The Home Depot and Applebee 's have signed on as launch partners . xAd is n't revealing how much advertisers will pay for each visit ; its website states that pricing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ marketing era finally upon us ? Some , like UM Worldwide 's US digital head Joshua Lowcock , thinks pay-per-visit could be as important a development as pay per click was . " The difference is , there are no accidental clicks when it comes to foot traffic . If a brand 's focus is to drive store visits , you should be able to pay for those visits . Now you can align strategy directly to investment , creating an efficient , powerful buying model , one I believe can really cement location as a strategic must for marketers , " he said . Indeed , location looks like it will soon be a strategic must for marketers as more and more companies decide to offer up the location technologies they 've developed to marketers . For example , Foursquare , which now describes itself as a " technology company that uses location intelligence to build meaningful consumer experiences and business solutions , " just announced that it is opening up a software development kit that will allow developers to incorporate Pilgrim , its core technology @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ snap-to-place awareness , into their apps . And it 's launching Foursquare Analytics , a " dynamic foot traffic dashboard for brands " that is currently being used by brands including Taco Bell , TGI Fridays , H&M , Lowe 's and Equinox . The timing for a golden era of location marketing could n't come soon enough for retailers with physical locations . Thanks in large part to changing consumer behavior driven by the Amazonification of commerce , a growing number of retailers are downsizing and fighting for survival . While solutions like xAd Cost Per Visit and Foursquare Analytics alone wo n't save them , having better insights into consumer behavior , the ability to target consumers at the right place and time when they 're on the go , and the option to pay for ads only when they drive visits to their stores could help give retailers that jump on the location marketing bandwagon quickly enough a fighting chance .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'workers in essential jobs such as teaching, the police and nursing' is the NP object and 'buying in the capital' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. The verb 'locked' implies a means of exerting force or pressure, fitting one of the categories of verbs that can appear in the V1 slot. The interpretation is prevention, as the workers are prevented from buying in the capital due to price inflation. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Posing on the bonnet of a brand new Bentley , in high heels , dark glasses and showing off the shapeliest of legs , Elina Cobaleva looks every inch the multi-millionaire 's wife . The celebrity stylist was clearly relishing the moment . Now , though , five years after the photograph was posted on social media , that luxury limousine is at the centre of an unfolding scandal involving ' dirty ' Russian cash laundered through British High Street banks . The Bentley was one of two bought for a total of ? 216,000 by Valemont Properties , a British-based firm caught up in allegations related to an enormous financial scam known as the ' Laundromat ' run by the Russian mafia . Elina Cobaleva , former Miss Ukraine , posing on a Bentley bought with cash laundered out of Russia According to documents obtained by the Organised Crime and Corruption Reporting Project , a respected collective of investigative journalists ( part-funded by the U.S. Department of State ) , 17 British banks including Lloyds TSB , Barclays , HSBC , the Queen 's bank Coutts , and the Royal Bank of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The banks now face questions over why they allowed such huge sums from dubious sources to flow through their hands , despite supposedly ultra-strict regulations . The scheme , which saw at least ? 16 billion moved out of Russia between 2010 and 2014 , was run by criminals with links to the Kremlin and the successor organisations to the KGB . Investigators believe the true figure could be as high as ? 65 billion , with the money sent from Russia via Moldova and Latvia ( both formerly members of the Soviet Union ) -- and siphoned off to the U.S. , Europe and especially Britain . There is , of course , a good reason why a certain type of Russian , usually a Kremlin crony who has benefited from the grotesque corruption among an elite of politicians and businessmen , loves London -- with its buoyant property market , luxury shops and excellent private schools . Who would n't want a mansion in Chelsea ( or Chelski , as it 's now known ) , to take his mistress shopping in the designer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his library with antique books , to dine at Novikov in Mayfair or Mari Vanna in Knightsbridge , and to educate his offspring at a top public school ? As a result , according to some anti-corruption campaigners , it has become the money-laundering capital of the world . And the tide of soiled cash brought in by these corrupt tycoons -- be it plundered profits from Russia 's mineral wealth or the proceeds of crime , drug-dealing , prostitution and the like -- is seeping into the very fabric of British life . In Russia , meanwhile , it is this kind of rampant corruption -- which is draining money that could be invested in infrastructure , hospitals and schools -- that saw street protests against Vladimir Putin 's rule break out nationwide at the weekend . Russian President Vladimir Putin during a meeting at the Northern Fleet First Air Defense Division military base ' London is the most corrupt place on Earth in the sense that there is a higher concentration of dirty money per square foot here than anywhere else on the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ **29;2134;TOOLONG campaigner .

Combine that with the fact London is a cultural hub , you have great schools and rising house prices that never seem to go down . ' I 'm surprised that even more criminals from around the world do n't come here , ' he adds . So , how has London become such a ' Spivski ' paradise ? Where is the money being spent ? How are the banks implicated ? And what are the consequences for the rest of us ? Located in a grand house in Central London is one of the UK 's leading ' company formation agents ' , doing a lucrative trade in setting up thousands of off-the-shelf businesses . There is nothing illegal about it : indeed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to establish a company quickly . But the ease with which anyone can set up a new company -- and , until recently , hide their true identity behind so-called ' nominee ' directors who may be paid for lending their names -- left the door open to criminals . ( Rules introduced last year stipulate that new firms have to reveal who controls them . ) The Russian Laundromat scam is alleged to have worked through a network of 21 such ' ghost ' companies , mostly based in the UK , and involved bogus trades and loans . In essence , the scam operated like this . A Russian criminal with money to launder would set up Company A which would ' loan ' money to another ' ghost ' , Company B , although no money actually changed hands . Company A then demanded repayment . When Company B failed to pay back the loan , Company A would take legal action against B in Moldova , a country in which the judiciary and financial authorities were less likely to scrutinise @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' the debt by ruling that Company B must pay it back , it would allow real money to be transferred out of Russia to a Moldovan bank . From there , it would go to a bank in Latvia -- crucially , a country inside the EU -- and then be transferred , with few questions asked , anywhere in the world . Which is where British banks come in . They stand accused of failing to prevent the flood of dirty money by offering private banking services to Russian clients , without ascertaining the origins of their riches . ( British customers are subjected to onerous identity checking to open even a basic savings account . ) Much of this money then flowed out of the banks and into London 's property market , which has long been a honey-pot for millionaires and billionaires from around the world whose wealth is entirely legitimate . However , according to a recent report by anti-corruption campaign group Transparency International , more than 44,000 land titles are owned by overseas companies . Some of these are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their anonymous owners may have bought them with dirty cash . Veaceslav Platon being arrested and lying face-down on the street next to a brown briefcase The Organised Crime and Corruption Reporting Project ( OCCRP ) , first exposed the workings of the Laundromat in 2014 , but has recently released specific detail of where some of the money went , detailing 70,000 transactions , 1,920 of which involved British banks . It alleges that a West London townhouse was purchased for almost ? 30 million via a British Virgin Islands-registered company . The UK does not stop foreign nationals from buying property here . But there are consequences for ordinary Britons because dirty money is one of the factors driving prices so high that even professionals on six-figure salaries may struggle to buy a family home in London . That price inflation trickles down to more modest properties , so that workers in essential jobs such as teaching , the police and nursing are locked out of buying in the capital . ' The London housing market is a money-launderer 's dream @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people , the result is tangible : they ca n't afford to live here . ' London Mayor Sadiq Khan recognises the problem and has launched an inquiry into overseas ownership of properties in the capital . According to the OCCRP investigation , companies linked to the Laundromat scam also bought commercial premises , including a hotel apartment in Central London , costing more than ? 10 million , and a historic London building , which is listed by its British Virgin Islands-registered owner as having a price of nearly ? 200 million . Other purchases include a car park in London 's Holborn , several flats in Manchester and land in Essex . After property , a British education is considered an attractive investment by multi-millionaires with money to offload . The London housing market is a money-launderer 's dream Former Russian banker Roman Borisovich The Independent Schools Council says more overseas pupils at British private schools come from Russia than any other country apart from China . Demand for places from families abroad is a contributory factor in keeping fees @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ But increasingly , schools are rightly wary of how the fees are being paid , introducing their own financial checks to safeguard against tainted funds . The OCCRP investigation reveals , for example , that in 2011 , one of the ghost companies linked to the Laundromat , Valemont Properties Ltd , paid ? 10,943 into the Lloyds TSB account of the leading public school Millfield in Somerset , via a Latvian bank . The school , which has fees of up to ? 35,000 a year , was made aware of allegations against Valemont three years ago and reported the transaction to the National Crime Agency . Much of the money spun through the Laundromat has been spent on luxury goods here , as the OCCRP investigation confirms . Separately , two Bentleys alleged to have been purchased through Valemont Properties , ended up with people associated with Moldovan businessman Veaceslav Platon , including his now ex-wife Elina Cobaleva . Platon , 44 , a former member of Parliament in Moldova , is alleged to be one of the architects of the Laundromat scheme @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to Moldova accused of joining in a plot to defraud banks there of $1 billion . He denies involvement in Laundromat . Veaceslav Platon ( pictured ) is said to be one of the architects behind Laundromat , but he denies he has ever been involved Several high-end London shops are said to have been drawn unwittingly into the Laundromat scandal . Russian buyers have acquired furs and jewellery while issuing fake invoices to make their acquisitions look like humdrum business expenses , the OCCRP found . In 2013 , at Bond Street jeweller Graff Diamonds , a Russian customer bought two items for ? 140,000 and ? 120,000 , which were fraudulently invoiced as ' building equipment ' with Barclays . And a furrier , John Shackman Ltd , was said to have been paid ? 400,000 by a Russian in 2013 , but this was recorded in documents sent to Lloyds as being for ' notebooks ' . It is , perhaps , too much to expect shops to interrogate customers about where their money has come from -- but the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be alert to money-laundering . The fact criminals are not deterred from using British banks is indicative of how lax their monitoring is . ' London is the major sink for Russian dirty money , ' says financial crime expert Nick Kochan , author of The Washing Machine : How Money Laundering And Terrorist Financing Soils Us . ' British banks are supposed to turn down doubtful deposits , but they 're seemingly so consumed with greed , they lap them up , ' he says . Around ? 133 billion of ' hidden capital ' that can not be explained has come into the country since the mid-Seventies , according to research compiled by analysts at Deutsche Bank . Since 2010 , it has poured in at a rate of ? 1 billion a month . ' We do n't know exactly how it is coming in , ' says Roman Borisovich . ' But it is very large amounts , perhaps enough to endanger the financial stability of the country . ' The massive money scam was called Laundromat ( file @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was fined more than ? 500 million by U.S. and British regulators for failing to prevent $10 billion ( ? 8 billion ) of tainted roubles flowing through its hands . But all the major High Street players stand accused of being involved in the Laundromat affair , and will face the consequences if the allegations are proven . Some have already been fined for laundering offences . In 2012 , HSBC was fined ? 1.2 billion for handling money for Mexican criminals , and even the Queen 's bank Coutts , now owned by RBS , has fallen foul of the regulators . It was fined nearly ? 9 million five years ago for anti-money laundering failures . The City rightly prides itself on being open for business with individuals and firms from anywhere in the world . But bring together inept bankers , ineffective regulation and Russians with wallets full of dirty money and it 's not surprising that London is a prime port of call for laundry men . Much of the blame dates back to the Blair administration , which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ crisis . Successive Coalition and Tory governments have done too little to clamp down on all that . And as ever it is ordinary bank customers , who have endured contemptuous treatment from High Street lenders for years , who will foot the bill if there is another crash . In the short term if the banks are hit with yet more enormous fines these will be passed on in the form of higher charges . ( HSBC , Lloyds , Barclays , RBS and Coutts insist they are committed to combating financial crime and have safeguards to identify the risks . ) Roman Borisovich despairs of the greed of British banks and some businesses which do not seem to mind the opprobrium associated with these vast sums . ' The corrupt can come here and become a respectable English businessman overnight , ' he says . ' But I worked there and I have seen that for such people , there 's no such thing as clean money .

' I 'm surprised that even more criminals from around the world do n't come here , ' he adds . So , how has London become such a ' Spivski ' paradise ? Where is the money being spent ? How are the banks implicated ? And what are the consequences for the rest of us ? Located in a grand house in Central London is one of the UK 's leading ' company formation agents ' , doing a lucrative trade in setting up thousands of off-the-shelf businesses . There is nothing illegal about it : indeed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to establish a company quickly . But the ease with which anyone can set up a new company -- and , until recently , hide their true identity behind so-called ' nominee ' directors who may be paid for lending their names -- left the door open to criminals . ( Rules introduced last year stipulate that new firms have to reveal who controls them . ) The Russian Laundromat scam is alleged to have worked through a network of 21 such ' ghost ' companies , mostly based in the UK , and involved bogus trades and loans . In essence , the scam operated like this . A Russian criminal with money to launder would set up Company A which would ' loan ' money to another ' ghost ' , Company B , although no money actually changed hands . Company A then demanded repayment . When Company B failed to pay back the loan , Company A would take legal action against B in Moldova , a country in which the judiciary and financial authorities were less likely to scrutinise @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' the debt by ruling that Company B must pay it back , it would allow real money to be transferred out of Russia to a Moldovan bank . From there , it would go to a bank in Latvia -- crucially , a country inside the EU -- and then be transferred , with few questions asked , anywhere in the world . Which is where British banks come in . They stand accused of failing to prevent the flood of dirty money by offering private banking services to Russian clients , without ascertaining the origins of their riches . ( British customers are subjected to onerous identity checking to open even a basic savings account . ) Much of this money then flowed out of the banks and into London 's property market , which has long been a honey-pot for millionaires and billionaires from around the world whose wealth is entirely legitimate . However , according to a recent report by anti-corruption campaign group Transparency International , more than 44,000 land titles are owned by overseas companies . Some of these are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their anonymous owners may have bought them with dirty cash . Veaceslav Platon being arrested and lying face-down on the street next to a brown briefcase The Organised Crime and Corruption Reporting Project ( OCCRP ) , first exposed the workings of the Laundromat in 2014 , but has recently released specific detail of where some of the money went , detailing 70,000 transactions , 1,920 of which involved British banks . It alleges that a West London townhouse was purchased for almost ? 30 million via a British Virgin Islands-registered company . The UK does not stop foreign nationals from buying property here . But there are consequences for ordinary Britons because dirty money is one of the factors driving prices so high that even professionals on six-figure salaries may struggle to buy a family home in London . That price inflation trickles down to more modest properties , so that workers in essential jobs such as teaching , the police and nursing are locked out of buying in the capital . ' The London housing market is a money-launderer 's dream @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people , the result is tangible : they ca n't afford to live here . ' London Mayor Sadiq Khan recognises the problem and has launched an inquiry into overseas ownership of properties in the capital . According to the OCCRP investigation , companies linked to the Laundromat scam also bought commercial premises , including a hotel apartment in Central London , costing more than ? 10 million , and a historic London building , which is listed by its British Virgin Islands-registered owner as having a price of nearly ? 200 million . Other purchases include a car park in London 's Holborn , several flats in Manchester and land in Essex . After property , a British education is considered an attractive investment by multi-millionaires with money to offload . The London housing market is a money-launderer 's dream Former Russian banker Roman Borisovich The Independent Schools Council says more overseas pupils at British private schools come from Russia than any other country apart from China . Demand for places from families abroad is a contributory factor in keeping fees @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ But increasingly , schools are rightly wary of how the fees are being paid , introducing their own financial checks to safeguard against tainted funds . The OCCRP investigation reveals , for example , that in 2011 , one of the ghost companies linked to the Laundromat , Valemont Properties Ltd , paid ? 10,943 into the Lloyds TSB account of the leading public school Millfield in Somerset , via a Latvian bank . The school , which has fees of up to ? 35,000 a year , was made aware of allegations against Valemont three years ago and reported the transaction to the National Crime Agency . Much of the money spun through the Laundromat has been spent on luxury goods here , as the OCCRP investigation confirms . Separately , two Bentleys alleged to have been purchased through Valemont Properties , ended up with people associated with Moldovan businessman Veaceslav Platon , including his now ex-wife Elina Cobaleva . Platon , 44 , a former member of Parliament in Moldova , is alleged to be one of the architects of the Laundromat scheme @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to Moldova accused of joining in a plot to defraud banks there of $1 billion . He denies involvement in Laundromat . Veaceslav Platon ( pictured ) is said to be one of the architects behind Laundromat , but he denies he has ever been involved Several high-end London shops are said to have been drawn unwittingly into the Laundromat scandal . Russian buyers have acquired furs and jewellery while issuing fake invoices to make their acquisitions look like humdrum business expenses , the OCCRP found . In 2013 , at Bond Street jeweller Graff Diamonds , a Russian customer bought two items for ? 140,000 and ? 120,000 , which were fraudulently invoiced as ' building equipment ' with Barclays . And a furrier , John Shackman Ltd , was said to have been paid ? 400,000 by a Russian in 2013 , but this was recorded in documents sent to Lloyds as being for ' notebooks ' . It is , perhaps , too much to expect shops to interrogate customers about where their money has come from -- but the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be alert to money-laundering . The fact criminals are not deterred from using British banks is indicative of how lax their monitoring is . ' London is the major sink for Russian dirty money , ' says financial crime expert Nick Kochan , author of The Washing Machine : How Money Laundering And Terrorist Financing Soils Us . ' British banks are supposed to turn down doubtful deposits , but they 're seemingly so consumed with greed , they lap them up , ' he says . Around ? 133 billion of ' hidden capital ' that can not be explained has come into the country since the mid-Seventies , according to research compiled by analysts at Deutsche Bank . Since 2010 , it has poured in at a rate of ? 1 billion a month . ' We do n't know exactly how it is coming in , ' says Roman Borisovich . ' But it is very large amounts , perhaps enough to endanger the financial stability of the country . ' The massive money scam was called Laundromat ( file @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was fined more than ? 500 million by U.S. and British regulators for failing to prevent $10 billion ( ? 8 billion ) of tainted roubles flowing through its hands . But all the major High Street players stand accused of being involved in the Laundromat affair , and will face the consequences if the allegations are proven . Some have already been fined for laundering offences . In 2012 , HSBC was fined ? 1.2 billion for handling money for Mexican criminals , and even the Queen 's bank Coutts , now owned by RBS , has fallen foul of the regulators . It was fined nearly ? 9 million five years ago for anti-money laundering failures . The City rightly prides itself on being open for business with individuals and firms from anywhere in the world . But bring together inept bankers , ineffective regulation and Russians with wallets full of dirty money and it 's not surprising that London is a prime port of call for laundry men . Much of the blame dates back to the Blair administration , which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ crisis . Successive Coalition and Tory governments have done too little to clamp down on all that . And as ever it is ordinary bank customers , who have endured contemptuous treatment from High Street lenders for years , who will foot the bill if there is another crash . In the short term if the banks are hit with yet more enormous fines these will be passed on in the form of higher charges . ( HSBC , Lloyds , Barclays , RBS and Coutts insist they are committed to combating financial crime and have safeguards to identify the risks . ) Roman Borisovich despairs of the greed of British banks and some businesses which do not seem to mind the opprobrium associated with these vast sums .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks a VP2[-ing] predicate and does not exhibit either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'carved out of' in a different context, referring to the creation of new reserved matters from existing ones, which is unrelated to the construction's defined properties.

WE HAVE finally been thrown off the Brexit cliff by our Prime Minister , and if you can hear a whooshing sound it 's the sound of explanations of its disastrous consequences going straight over Theresa 's head . But Theresa does n't care , because Brexit gives the office of the Prime Minister the opportunity to make the greatest power grab in history . When Theresa speaks about taking back control , it 's her own control that she has in mind . Just one day after the triggering of Article 50 , when the Tories were telling us to celebrate Britain taking back power , we discovered they 're introducing legislation that will enable them to take back power from Scotland -- and everyone else who is n't Theresa . The Great Repeal Bill is so called because it 's really about repealing any opposition to Theresa May . When she stood up this week in the House of Commons and said she would represent every person in the UK , she meant it . She meant that whatever @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Repeal Bill contains a provision for what 's called Henry VIII powers , which basically means giving the Prime Minister and her Cabinet appointees the right to chop the heads off laws and pillage the ministeries . Without having to bother themselves with parliamentary scrutiny or oversight , the Government will be able to change legislation . Loading article content This is what taking back control means in practice . It means the final transformation of the UK into an elective dictatorship and , moreover , one in which the elections are carried out according to an unrepresentative system . And then the Tories will cheat the electoral process anyway . Scotland certainly wo n't be taking back any control if Theresa and her little helpers in Holyrood have anything to do with it . But then she had to be reminded during PMQs that Scotland is actually a country . Theresa and her pals do n't want to allow Scotland a say . It 's unfair , say the architects of an unplanned and chaotic Brexit , to ask Scots to vote on independence before every @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ may deign to permit Scotland a referendum sometime in the unspecified future , long after Brexit has reduced us all to living in caves . In the new taking-back-control UK , it 's the party that came a very distant second in the Holyrood election that has control . But even then they 'll only countenance another vote if it can be proven beyond any doubt that there are still some straight bananas in Asda . All the Unionist parties are quite definite about the rectitude of bananas as the only fair way of judging whether Scots have all the information about Brexit that they require , although , to be fair , Ukip have n't voiced an opinion as they 've been far too busy with their commitments to the BBC . They do n't do very well at elections , but Ukip do have one safe seat -- on the Question Time panel . For Scotland , the Great Repeal Bill is all about repealing Scotland 's ability to resist Brexit . For all that , the Conservatives say there could be more powers for Holyrood after @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ recognise the legitimacy of a vote in the Scottish Parliament . They want us to trust them to deliver more power to a Parliament that they do n't believe in . The Westminster government insists it is not going to take powers back from Holyrood , but the reality is that if it does not repatriate all the devolved powers currently exercised by Brussels then it 's doing just that . A power that is not specifically reserved to Westminster is a devolved power -- that 's what the Scotland Act says . If Westminster decides unilaterally to retain any of those powers for itself , it is effectively taking power back from Scotland . It is a Westminster power-grab which weakens and undermines the Scottish Parliament . And Westminster will not engage in any negotiations with Scotland about which powers it seeks to retain . Scotland will get the leftovers after Westminster has decided what it wants to keep for itself . So much for all the extra powers that Leavers promised Scotland during the EU referendum campaign . They 're going the exact same way as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Scotland was promised in return for a No vote in 2014 . As Mark Elliot , professor of public law at the University of Cambridge pointed out , the Great Repeal Bill gives " no guarantee that repatriated EU powers will go to devolved institutions , even in relation to subject areas that are currently devolved " . He added : " The implication seems to be new reserved matters will be carved out of existing devolution settlements . That raises some questions of constitutional politics . " In order to retain these powers , Westminster will have to make changes to the Scotland Act , and to the equivalent legislation in Wales and Northern Ireland , because according to existing law these powers should automatically come to the devolved parliaments . The devolved administrations will certainly refuse to give consent , and while Westminster has the legal power to overrule them , it puts the final nail in the coffin of the idea Scotland 's consent is a vital part of its government within the UK . The Great Repeal Bill will go down @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Treaty of Union . Unionists might think it 's an April Fool for Scotland , but in the longer term the joke will be on them .

Jenson Button has confirmed that he will be taking to the cockpit of a Formula One car once more later this year . It will not be a shock return to the current grid , as has been mooted as a possibility earlier this week . Instead , Button will drive the 1974 world championship winning McLaren M23 at Laguna Seca . The Frome racer will get behind the wheel of the car that Emerson Fittipaldi took to the team 's first world title at the Monterey Motorsports Reunion from August 17-20 . Button has driven the M23 on several occasions in the past , most notably at Silverstone and at the premiere of Rush in London 's Leicester Square in 2013 . The 37-year-old , who officially remains McLaren 's reserve driver after taking a year out of racing , said : " It 's always special to drive a Formula 1 car with such an illustrious past , and the M23 wrote a significant chapter in grand prix history during the 1970s .

The margin of victory could , and probably should , have been more convincing , but Watford have done what was required to move within perhaps only a few points of making sure of a third successive season in the Premier League after beating seemingly-doomed Sunderland 1-0 . The decisive contribution came from an unexpected source on the hour , Miguel Britos heading in his first goal for the Hornets from close range having been set up by Craig Cathcart after Stefano Okaka had seen a header turned onto the bar . Walter Mazzarri 's side had the chances to score more , both before and after taking the lead , but a combination of a disappointing end product and some good saves by the very talented Jordan Pickford ensured the home fans were unable to relax until the final whistle . And while most of those inside Vicarage Road may not have enjoyed it , the open nature of the contest from the opening whistle made for a surprisingly enjoyable game as both sides took the opportunity to attack whenever possible . The Watford boss made four changes to the team that lost 1-0 at Crystal Palace two weeks ago and switched formation again , this time going with a 4-3-3 . Mazzarri opted not to start pre-match doubts Troy Deeney and Sebastian Prodl , Valon Behrami was absent with a thigh injury and Daryl Janmaat also dropped to the bench . Their places were taken by Jose Holebas , Abdoulaye Dooucoure , Okaka and Nordin Amrabat , who made his first start since New Year 's Day . David Moyes made just the one adjustment from the side that was held to a goalless home draw by Burnley last time out as Lamine Kone returned to the starting XI at the expense of Sebastian Larsson . The hosts started positively and had the first opening inside 90 seconds when an overhit M'Baye Niang cross from the left ran for Amrabat on the opposite side of the box . He came inside before dinking a left-footed delivery to the back post where Billy Jones just beat Niang to the header . The resulting corner from the left was taken by Jose Holebas and Niang tried an improvised back-heeled flick which went high and wide of the target . The Black Cats were also looking to start fast and their first opportunity came when Jermain Defoe laid the ball off to the onrushing Jack Rodwell . He tried to catch Heurelho Gomes out with a lofted left-foot finish which was deflected onto the roof of the Hornets ' net . Niang and Amrabat switched flanks in the opening stages , with the former having a promising run on the counter-attack but he mis-hit an attempted pass into Okaka . It was Gomes who was the first keeper to be called into meaningful action in the ninth minute when he had to get down smartly to his right to tip away Adnan Januzaj 's inswinging delivery from the right angle of the 18-yard box . Watford were looking edgy in the opening stages but they almost took the lead two minutes later when Doucoure came inside on his left foot and hit a low drive which Pickford did well to get down to push over after Etienne Capoue 's slalom break forward had given the home side a variety of attacking possibilities and the Sunderland keeper had first had to push away a Niang cross . The Hornets ' next attempt was rather more optimistic as a Tom Cleverley corner from the left was headed out to Doucoure , who connected very well with his right foot , but the 30-yard attempt was always swinging wide of the near post . Soon after Cathcart laid a throw-in into the path of Capoue on the right , he swung over a first-time cross which picked out an unmarked Okaka , but he was unable to direct his header on target . Mazzarri 's side were continuing to have the better of the attacking exchanges , with Doucoure again optimistically trying his luck from long range before Niang embarked on a threatening run forward which ended with his attempted shot being blocked . The game was increasingly being played in Sunderland 's half by this stage and Capoue , who was having one of his better halves of football for some time , was the next to go close , fizzing a right-footed strike from the edge of the 18-yard box narrowly wide of the far post with Pickford rooted . But the Hornets ' injury woes were to reappear again five minutes before the interval when Younes Kaboul came out of a challenge with Defoe , took a couple of steps and then felt the back of his hamstring . He was replaced with Janmaat , with Cathcart moving to central defensive duties alongside Britos . Moments after play restarted , there were concerned looks back towards the Watford goal when Januzaj hit a shot from the edge of the area which took a wicked deflection , but from the home side 's perspective it deflected the right side of Gomes ' right-hand post . From the resulting corner though , the Hornets surged forward on the counter with Amrabat leading the charge and as he made his way to midway inside the Black Cats ' half he picked out Niang with a good cross-field pass ; the AC Milan loanee struck his shot well enough but the hosts were again thwarted by Pickford , who got down at his near post to block . The Hornets had another chance from the resultant corner from the left , but Cathcart did n't connect properly with his attempted header and Pickford saved as an open and , from a neutral 's perspective , enjoyable opening 45 minutes ended goalless . A stoppage for an injury to Defoe saw the second half start slowly but Watford were soon in the ascendency again , increasing their corner count by a further two . Another opportunity came and went when Niang showed good footwork on the left side of the area to beat Billy Jones , but although his cross was unable to pick out anyone at the far post that was immediately followed by Isaac Success getting the signal to get ready to come on . He replaced Amrabat in the 53rd minute . After Jose Holebas had dragged an effort wide , Success saw a volley deflected behind following a corner . But it was from the next set piece that the Hornets were to finally make the deserved breakthrough . After the ball had been played in from the left , an unmarked Okaka saw his goalbound header turned onto the face of the crossbar by an opponent , Cathcart reacted first to nod back across the face of goal and Britos headed down from close range at the far post to make it 1-0 with his first goal for the club . Moyes ' response was to bring on Didier N'Dong for Darron Gibson , but the hosts could have made it 2-0 when Okaka 's pass set Success through on goal , Pickford made his latest good save to deny the substitute . But Capoue was first to the loose ball and although he could n't get a shot away himself , he teed up Doucoure , whose follow-up was deflected behind . Having got in front though , Watford got sloppy for a period and they were fortunate not to be punished when Januzaj was set up inside the area , but his shot turned into little more than a pass straight at Gomes . The hosts were soon back on the front foot , with Holebas striking a fine left-footed drive from 25 yards that could only have cleared Pickford 's bar by about a foot , although referee Lee Probert adjudged it was deflected over . Moyes made his second change with 20 minutes to go as Wahbi Khazri replaced Januzaj . The substitute 's first real mark on the game was a booking for dissent , coming soon after Jones had also seen yellow for pulling back for Success . And two yellow cards in five minutes for the visitors was to become three in six when Niang 's attempts to make something out of nothing tight to the touchline was illegally stopped by Kone . Success stung Pickford 's gloves after coming inside to hit a right-footed shot as the hosts continued to seek a second goal to kill the game . But it needed a good stop from Gomes to prevent Sunderland from equalising with seven minutes remaining when he tipped Fabio Borini 's low drive around the left-hand post following a pass inside from left to right by Khazri . Watford made their final change with four minutes of normal time remaining as Niang was replaced by Camilo Zuniga . And while their opponents continued to try and get back on terms , the hosts were defending well and deserved to finish the game not only with three points but also a welcome clean sheet . The home side made life unnecessarily awkward for themselves with a couple of stupidly conceded free-kicks in the closing stages , but Cleverley 's reaction at the final whistle showed what the win meant as he leapt to punch the air in the centre circle .

There was more space to attack today and Okaka put in quite a shift for a big man on a hot day.It was a day when a non-Deeney option was needed and that was Okaka running at the defence with Niang , Capoue and Doucoure supporting him.Capoue gets a lot of stick in some postings but today he got really involved in attacks and his tracking back was exemplary.Doucoure is a powerful box to box player.He shielded the defence then surged forward in attacks.He likes a shot and one will fly in soon . Holebas kept surging forward and had his best game in ages . Britos was very solid today and the general mood was much more positive at the Vic ' today . More points are still needed but with so much tension in the air the team overcame the nerves and have made our league position a bit more comfortable . Another win against West Brom would leave us not having to worry about the Spurs game.There is always the dread that this lot will flop again on Tuesday but today while not the perfect win was in the context of the Premier League credible as Sunderland for all their limitations are hard to break down . Mention must be made of Jordan Pickford , that had to be one of the best goalkeeping displays we have seen at the Vic ' . Without him we would have been talking about a much more comfortable win .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'grow' is intransitive and does not take an NP object. Additionally, the phrase 'out of wanting to snuggle with their parents' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, which are key features of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'creating something out of nothing', where 'out of nothing' is a prepositional phrase modifying 'creating', not a VP2[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object between the verb and 'out of', and the phrase 'out of doing my GCSE' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the speaker's action of ceasing to participate in an activity, which is not the same as the construction's defined interpretations.

Is music being devalued in schools ? Sarah Waddington investigates whether music is falling off the curriculum , and what is being done to save it A young girl starts strumming on the guitar ; picking up his drumsticks , a teenage boy begins playing the drums , and then a mellifluous voice begins to sing . Like magnets , kids of all ages are drawn to the sound . They clap , they dance , they smile -- without restriction or hesitation . Nobody is telling them to keep the noise down . I am at the Plymouth School of Creative Arts to interview a teacher here , but as I wait for him , I watch , impressed , as pupils host an ' open mic ' afternoon . Stood here , it is hard to comprehend that both locally and nationally , music is being squeezed out of the curriculum . The decline in pupils taking formal exams in music across schools across the UK is not a new phenomenon , but has been the case for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on pupils to take subjects included in the English Baccalaureate ( EBacc ) school league table measure , it is no surprise . Taking and completing a qualification in music is not the be all and end all ; research shows the huge benefits that music brings to children 's wellbeing and learning . Ian Crowford , a music teacher at PSCA , understands that more than most . " I actually dropped out of doing my GCSE and then did n't start again until college , " he says , " but for me , now , it is about realising who music is actually for , and what they want to get out of it . " When I first met some of the young people at this school , who were not musicians , they were so shy and would n't talk to anyone , but just from being part of music and finding something they love , they are now stepping up and they are able to help entire rooms full of people ; they are able to voice their opinions . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ me that is what it is about , and being able to have that identity within a group . I find music is beautiful for creating that . " New research involving over 700 secondary schools in England has revealed nearly 60 percent of teachers from state schools believe the controversial EBacc is having a negative impact on the numbers of students choosing to study music . The current EBacc school performance measure , introduced by the Government in 2013 , is awarded to schools when students gain a grade C or above at GCSE level across five subjects : English , mathematics , history or geography , the sciences and a language . Other subjects such as music , drama and art are not included in the measure . The University of Sussex , which conducted the research , found only three percent of state school teachers surveyed said the EBacc has had a positive impact on music within their school . And of all the schools surveyed , music was only compulsory for ' all Year 9 students ' in 62 percent of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . That does not mean people are just sitting around and doing nothing to rectify it , however . Plymouth , for example , has created a ' Music Education Hub ' to provide high quality music education for the city 's children and young people . Fiona Pendreigh , who is head of the hub , and also head of Plymouth Youth Music Service , says the Department for Education set up the model to be rolled out up and down the country . " The ethos behind this is that , by default , everyone is ' in ' , " she says . " The Music Service , as the Hub-lead organisation , facilitates and promotes the wealth of musical opportunities across the city . This means we can connect with a range of partners from Plymouth University and Marjon , to Theatre Royal , dBs , Plymouth Music Zone and all of our wonderful orchestras and choirs . " Last week , a letter signed by Sir Simon Rattle , Sir John Eliot Gardiner and other luminaries was delivered to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ music education by the new EBacc qualification . As advocated in Private Eye , it stated the qualification " devalues creative arts subjects " and " discourages schools from keeping them on the timetable " . The letter mentioned followed two research projects -- the above , by the University of Sussex , and another conducted by the Association of School and College Leaders , which found music provision was falling away at both GCSE and A Level . According to the Sussex study 's co-author , " music as a subject could be facing extinction " -- a daunting supposition which remains a real fear for many across the board . Jon Carroll has been making radio in Plymouth for eatmusic and Best Frequencies Forever in San Francisco for the last seven years . The 37-year-old , whose " obsession " with music stems from the experiences he had at school , says the creative arts should be a " vital " part of the curriculum . " I feel that it 's important to be able to express and relate to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It can give a voice to children that feel marginalised and also teach great lessons in team work . " My obsession with music stems from the positive experiences that I enjoyed through my school years . From the primary school choir and being taught how a song works , through to being allowed to practice as a band on lunch breaks . It seemed vital to me and I could see how music connected with other subjects . It gave me a real focus . " I think that ' being a musician ' can seem like something that 's out of reach to a lot of children . It 's not . With very little equipment , it 's very easy to set-up in a bedroom and make music . Children need that knowledge . They need to be told that they have a voice and then shown how to use that voice . " But I do worry that our obsession with success in STEM science , technology , engineering and mathematics subjects creates an environment where other subjects seem frivolous . Turning away @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ kids to mundanity . " To stop this from happening , a new building at City College Plymouth encompasses both core subjects with creative one -- and will even feature recording studios when complete . One floor will specialise in digital , media and virtual technology , and another will centre on advanced and marine technology . There will be a floor dedicated to science and industrial research ; health and sports medicine , with performance training laboratories will fill another storey , and there will be space for computing and technical laboratories too . Principal of City College Plymouth , Phil Davies , said he hopes it will help " revolutionise " the way the subjects are taught . He said on a tour earlier this year : " Here we are bringing all of the key STEM and STEM-related subjects here in one location : digital and creative skills and science and research facilities ; a state of the art facility for the developing of skills for 16 , 17 and 18-year-olds and adults as well . " Alternative models of education @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ forward by the EBacc . In 2015 , something wonderful and new happened in Plymouth which has changed the face of education in the city -- and also changed the face of Millbay : The Plymouth School of Creative Arts opened . The school , as its name suggests , is inspired by the creative arts . In this new way of thinking about education , led by the Plymouth College of Art ( PCA ) , primary children and secondary aged pupils occupy the same building , classrooms have been transformed into ' studios ' and children have access to design spaces and workshops to help bring their ideas alive . Another big aspect of the school , naturally , is music . And Mr Crowford , who has been teaching there since day one , said there 's one statistic that has driven him since the beginning . " The music industry makes up less than 30 per cent of the entire creative arts industry , " he tells me . " Of that , less than seven per cent of it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ musicians , who are solely making music . " What I 've always been interested in is the other opportunities -- how could somebody realistically make a living through music ? Rather than being sat down and grilled and being told ' You 're going to play this song because this is in the curriculum ' , it is flipping that around , and asking ' What is it you want to get out of music , and how do you want to get there ? ' , which is something I never got when I was at school . " A lot of it is about agenda as well . Should it be about the teacher 's agenda , or should it be that we are being flexible and working alongside the students and achieving what they want ? There are always lessons to be learnt along the way . " It is building that intrinsic motivation that they are supported and they have taken the time to learn because they want to get better , because they see a point in the future they want @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interested in music , even though they did n't choose it as an option . Quite a few of them are connecting with the idea of making a record label here , because they still want to be a part of it , and they can connect from any side they like , for example the business side , or the photography side . " He adds : " It is amazing to teach here . What is so good is the passion and motivation of the people here -- they know this is led by the young people , who are forward-thinking and able to envisage their part in the world . " You can see how confident our students are -- the fact they do n't even bat an eyelid when strangers come in , and they are not afraid to perform . " I really do see a difference when I 'm here in the school , just in the fact that our young people are so confident within themselves , and they are n't afraid to give their opinion . " From a very young age , children learn through music . They sing the alphabet ; they learn tunes to understand meanings of words ; they sing together to feel part of something bigger . But I think there are two things at play here , as we talk about the decline of music within schools , especially as pupils reach secondary school age . Music from Year 7 to 9 does not need to consist of pupils being plonked in front of an old keyboard , being told you ' have to play this ' , and that 's that . And it does not need to be taught in an overtly academic way , that will inevitably push people away . It needs to be incorporated into everything . Music is a beautiful , wonderful tool to help students express themselves in all manner of ways , and it has been researched and proven to have a direct effect on happiness and progression . Sarah - awkwardly - performing at a school concert ( above ) I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ throughout my secondary school years . He let us express ourselves , he was full of energy and he always let us find out the answer - whatever it may be - independently . He also supported pupils across the board to be the best they can be , and using music as a tool for that was key . I believe the current GCSE and A Level music qualifications are still very narrow , and this , naturally , hinders what can be taught in schools . I struggled through the theoretical side of my music A Level , and it was only because I , luckily , received private tuition from my piano teacher that I managed to scrape through with a B. But by looking at alternative models of education , such as what is being done at PSCA , it is clear to see just what can be done . Students will never achieve an ABC , if they do n't first learn to sing it . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'out of' in a different context, where 'turning adversity into opportunity' is a noun phrase complement of the complex preposition 'out of', similar to the examples in (7a) and (7b).

? ? ? ? ? Nostalgia for a future that never came : Goldfrapp The seventh album in 17 years from electronic duo Goldfrapp is awash with smooth waves of thick synthetic sound , fizzing , burbling and crashing over the pulsing thud of mathematically quantized drum beats . Alison Goldfrapp 's layered vocals drift and shimmer with ethereal languor over musical partner Will Gregory 's robotically throbbing bass lines . Tracks glide by with the relentless hypnotic power of a perfect machine in motion . It is pretty much what I once imagined the future of music would sound like : gleaming zero gravity pop . So why does it seem so old fashioned ? Goldfrapp are in their fifties now , more often than not a retro phase of a musician 's career . Their last album , 2013 's Tales Of US , experimented with an organic analogue sound , featuring guitar , piano and strings . It was an elegant , downbeat affair but lost them some commercial headway , particularly in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ music ) pioneers . Silver Eye returns to the swagger of their early years with a vengeance . The galloping electroglam blast of opening tracks Anymore and Systemagic could have sprung directly from 2005 's Supernature sessions . It is stirring stuff , a reminder that at their peak Goldfrapp conjured a state-of-the-art fusion of disparate electronic strands , drawing together the Teutonic android pulse of Kraftwerk , the space age disco of Jean Michel Jarre and Giorgo Moroder , the anthemic synth pop of Gary Numan , Depeche Mode and OMD and the hypnotic drive of Techno , all exquisitely personalised with the sensual vocals of Goldfrapp herself . But what sounded like science fiction in 1975 and cutting edge in 2005 is starting to sound like nostalgia for a future that never came . The duo seem to acknowledge as much on Everything Is Never Enough , when Goldfrapp sings " This is not tomorrow/ We are here in the future past . " It may be the only point on the album where form and content meet . For the most part , lyrics are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into meaning on tracks with titles like Faux Suede Drifter , Zodiac Black and Tigerman . It is all shiny surfaces , superficially dazzling but hard to care about . I could listen to it all day and come away none the wiser about what the artist thinks or feels . It is becoming incongruous to even talk about electronic music as a specific genre in a digital world where every sound is a waveform to be manipulated inside a computer programme . Everything is electronica now . What the most interesting artists of digital pop ( from cutting edge pioneers like Frank Ocean , James Blake and Sampha to marquee stars like Kanye West , the Weeknd and the xx ) have introduced is a kind of wonky soulfulness that allows a genuine sense of humanity to bleed through the synthetic surfaces . By contrast , Goldfrapp hark back to the bombast of a time when electronica was all about man ( or woman ) versus machine . On Silver Eye , the machines are ascendant . ? ? ? ? ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ struggle for control of his vocal cordsCredit : Ki Price Bob Dylan 's 38th official studio album is his first triple-set of an extraordinary career that has stretched the possibilities of language and music so wide he was awarded the 2016 Nobel Prize in Literature . Before we get too excited , however , let it be known that Triplicate comprises three discs , 30 songs and 95 minutes of a 75-year-old man croaking his way through cover versions of vintage swing and jazz era show tunes , presumably leftovers from two previous albums of Sinatra-influenced sessions . It is not for the fainthearted . The first of these collections , 2015 's Shadows In The Night , arrived with a near mystical power , Dylan 's cracked , ancient voice summoning a wistful air of melancholy from songs of memory and regret . The follow-up , Fallen Angels ( 2016 ) , however , was playful and exuberant . His swinging rendition of Young At Heart rather dented the impression of old Bob dwelling on mortality . When I met Dylan 's manager at an event @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ making these records . " Who knows ? " admitted a man who works with Dylan closer than most . " Bob 's a mystery . But he has earned the right to do whatever he wants . " Unfortunately what Dylan wants is not the same as what his fans want from him . In recent years , we 've seen exhibitions of his elaborate wrought-iron gates and impressionistic oil paintings . What we are still waiting for is new music from arguably the greatest songwriter of our times . I think it is fair to say that Triplicate is an act of self-indulgence only of interest to Dylan completists . If you were to stray into a room where it was playing you might wonder how anyone could have allowed such a ropy old singer to gurgle his way through such beautiful melodies . But should you linger a while , something wonderful might happen . Seduced by the sensitive playing of Dylan 's stripped-back Americana group , in arrangements peeling away big band clich ? s , you mght find yourself drawn into Dylan @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and really hearing these gorgeous old songs anew . Occasional lines jerk out of the mix as Dylan struggles for control of his vocal cords . But his unique phrasing and delivery is usually right on the nose of the song 's meaning . On many tracks a low , resonant cello saws beneath Dylan 's gritty tone , their oaky timbre blending into one . The frailty of his stretched , long notes carries a weight of experience , like a tree stripped bare in winter.Over 90 minutes , this is a set that casts a hypnotic musical spell . But enough already . We might be intrigued to read Picasso 's poetry or hear Pinter 's songbook but no one needs five volumes of it . Now it is surely time to find out what all of this is bringing to Dylan 's own original art . After all , he did n't win the Nobel Prize for crooning . This is a beguiling curiosity , combining delicate piano pieces with the fragile vocals and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is mellow and melancholy , mock classical , leavened with stately old-world charm and a dash of Music Hall panache . But as you get drawn into a world of dusty dreams and thwarted longings in a song cycle inspired by Chateau Marmont -- a rather rococo Los Angeles hotel that looms large in Hollywood legend - the emotional and intellectual content cuts through the gentle mood like a killer with a carving knife . Jarvis Cocker 's beloved band Pulp have been on hiatus since 2001 , reuniting only for brief live reunions . The Sheffield singer-songwriter has released two solo albums in that period , the last in 2009 , while maintaining a dilettantish presence as a cultural gadfly in journalism and broadcasting . This audacious album , though , suggests that his gift for songwriting remains as sharp as ever . Chilly Gonzales is the pop alter ego of classically trained Canadian pianist and composer Jason Beck , who has a prolific solo career and is much in demand as a collaborator in dance , electronic and hip-hop music ( notably with Drake , Peaches @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ friends , both having lived for decades in Paris , and they evidently share an intellectual refinement and a fanatical passion for the trashy aesthetic of pop . While Gonzales 's elaborate piano and string pieces verge on pastiche in their mimicry of classical styles , his melodies and harmonies are gorgeous , their instrumental passages trembling with emotion . Cocker 's fragile singing would get him kicked off X Factor in a hail of mockery but he knows how to deliver , shifting from spoken phrases to whispery melody and high , shaky grandstanding with conviction . His lyrics twist the nostalgic mood with a series of vignettes , character studies and philosophical musings set at Chateau Marmont . The Room 29 of the title is the actual hotel room , containing a piano , where Clara Clemens ( daughter of Mark Twain ) lived out a lonely widowhood . At other times in the same room , Jean Harlow 's doomed second husband , Paul Bern , allegedly failed to consummate their marriage and Howard Hughes slowly lost his mind to dreams of sex and movies @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Bombshell , Salom ? and the title track . Linking all the songs is an exploration of the gulf between glamorous illusion and mundane reality that contemporary Hollywood has come to epitomise . On bravura show-stopper The Other Side , Cocker peers behind the veil of celebrity to discover " Everything is scripted/ Access is restricted/ I 've seen all the cables and the wires ... there is nothing on the other side . " A chamber piece that spills blood all over the hotel carpet , Room 29 is an understated triumph . ? ? ? ? ? ' Love waits for no one ' : Marling 's sixth album deals with longing and rejectionCredit : Rex Features This is Laura Marling 's sixth album in nine years . The 27-year-old daughter of English aristocracy ( her father is the fifth Baronet Marling ) is arguably the outstanding singer-songwriter of her generation , although she operates far below the pop radar . Her work is finely wrought , cerebral and philosophical , fearless but with a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ workings of her own heart . She is sometimes compared to Joni Mitchell ( high praise for any songwriter ) and they certainly share an edge of indifference to outside influences as they pursue their own artistic vision . Titling your latest release in Latin after a quote from Roman poet Virgil certainly does not suggest any desperation to conquer the pop market . " Semper femina " can be loosely translated as " always a woman " . In Virgil 's Aeneid , a god unkindly describes women as " varium et mutabile " , or " fickle and changeable " . Marling regards feminine mutability in a more generous light throughout this sparkling , thoughtful album . On Nouel , she twists Virgil 's words into a dedication to the female muse , variously incarnated as a singer , a cat , an artist 's model and a goddess , but also quite possibly referring to the songwriter herself . If this all makes it sound like an album that requires footnotes , that would be unfortunate . Marling writes with colloquial clarity ( she @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ concocts melodies through which lyrics flow with natural ease . After the grittier edges of 2015 's self-produced Short Movie , Marling here shifts back towards a mixture of English pastoral and subtle Americana , but with an added layer of adult sensuousness . With any singer-songwriter , it is too easy to focus on words and melodies and overlook production . American guitarist Blake Mills has done a superb job teasing out textures and details in intimate , understated arrangements , where luscious strings , spooky backing vocals and light-touch drums rise and fall without overwhelming Marling 's precise , smooth singing . Each song has its own character , examining women through the eyes of others ( and sometimes subtly critiquing the men who objectify them ) . Despite the distance Marling seems determined to maintain , a sense of her own fear of isolation bleeds through an album in which longing and rejection hold centre ground . The closing track , Nothing , Not Nearly , finds Marling at her most revealing , reminiscing about a failed affair and concluding with the sad realisation that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ another gem in an already glittering canon . ? ? ? ? ? Divide and conquer : Ed SheeranCredit : PA Ed Sheeran 's third album will almost certainly be the biggest selling British album of the year . There are 12 tracks , and each is perfectly formed . This is a set of direct , punchy , melodic , catchy , meaningful songs , with verses and choruses in all the right places . They are beautifully sung and delivered with a compelling and endearing mixture of charismatic swagger and emotional honesty . The quality does n't let up from beginning to end . It is very good . And if you can feel a " but " coming on , it is a very small one . Like Adele 's third blockbuster album , 25 , it does not push into new places or extend the range of the artist , rather it offers a perfect synthesis of everything that has made them so universally popular . It is named after the mathematical division @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more compelling than branding . His 2011 debut was named + ( " plus " ) and the 2014 blockbuster follow up was x ( " multiply " ) . That one did indeed multiply Sheeran 's appeal , establishing the acoustic singer-songwriter as one of the biggest stars in contemporary pop . But this is not an album of division so much as consolidation , and I do n't think they have a mathematical symbol for that . Maybe he should have called it Ed ? ( " squared " ) . For better or worse , it 's an Ed Sheeran album that sounds pretty much exactly like what people think an Ed Sheeran album should sound like . Evidently he is not ready for subtraction yet , although he did take a year off in 2016 . He opens his new album with Eraser , a snappy folk rap in which he looks back on his musical career and attempts to explain the dizzying and sometimes overwhelming effects of fame ( " I 'm well aware of certain things that can destroy a man like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Exuding typical positivity , Sheeran makes a mantra out of turning adversity into opportunity : " I 'll find comfort in my pain . " The track builds with thrilling urgency , which is something Sheeran has proved adept at , adding elements bit by bit until a bouncy rhythm section is rattling along beneath him like he 's strapped to a runaway train . It 's a good trick and he pulls it off on every one of the up-tempo songs . The way Sheeran brought hip hop inflections into acoustic singer-songwriting was the driving force in his rise to fame but it no longer has a quality of surprise . His rap style is fluent but incredibly distinctive , almost always in the same rhythm and flow . He is very honest and direct , with a sharp turn of phrase , and you really get the sense of a man getting things off his chest , but it is becoming over-familiar , forsaking some of the ragged peculiarity that brought so much oddball energy to his first two albums . Division is by far @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it essays a lush romantic polish that might verge on cheesy easy-listening if there was n't something quite so grittily substantial about the force of Sheeran 's personality . Even at his most sentimental there is a quality of earthiness shoving intently from the inside of his songs . He has the gift of sincerity , for saying potentially corny things and making them sound real . Previous albums have demonstrated that he really knows how to write a beautiful , elegant and heartfelt ballad and ? is stuffed with them , apparently celebrating Sheeran being reunited with his childhood sweetheart . Chord progressions often adhere to standard blues soul patterns but he still manages to squeeze something fresh out of them . Dive is a raspy gem exploring longing and frustration , Happier a tender , self-punishing rumination on lost love , but Perfect may be a bit too perfect for its own good . Imagine a cross between Eric Clapton 's Wonderful Tonight and Chris De Burgh 's Lady In Red and you can decide for yourself whether to reach for a handkerchief or pass the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Those songs are considered classics for a reason . But with the sweet romantic dedication continuing on Hearts Do n't Break Around Here and How Would You Feel ( Paean ) , the mood of mushy amorousness has the cumulative effect of rubbing off some of the edges that have made Sheeran such an endearingly awkward pop star . For me , the album springs to life on the more sharply observational Shape of You ( already a huge hit single ) and especially New Man , the latter riven with caustic jealousy ( " Wears both shoes with no socks on his feet/ I hear he 's on a new diet and watches what he eats/ He 's got his eyebrows plucked and asshole bleached/ ... still I hear he makes you happy and that 's OK by me " ) . Sheeran is such an upbeat character , maybe ( as the opening Erasure suggests ) it takes adversity to really get him going . The toughest ballad by some distance is the album 's closer , Supermarket Flowers , tackles the death of his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if you can get through that one with dry eyes you 're a stronger man than I. ? ? ? ? ? Fringe benefits : Temples have embraced technology on new album Volcano Temples look like they popped from a time warp : all mop tops and fuzzy curls , minimally accessorised with bangles and beads . It is a mod-meets-hippie look established circa 1967 in the first let-your-hair-down wave of psychedelic rock . It has served bands well over ensuing decades , from winsome indie to Britpop , but you wonder what it signals among young men from Kettering in the second decade of the 21st century . Their 2014 debut album , Sun Structures , exhibited the same kind of retro precision . Jangly mysticism and swirling solos indicated total allegiance to vintage psychedelia . Alongside Tame Impala , the Horrors and Toy , Temples were hailed for taking guitar music back to the future . The irony , of course , was that there was nothing remotely progressive about such a slavishly old-fashioned brand of progressive rock . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ represents a genuinely bold leap forward . You can hear it from the opening bars of Certainty , with big , brash , wonky hooks triumphantly blasting over thunderous drums and squalling electronic bass . With keyboards replacing guitars as the dominant instrument , the quartet have embraced the synthetic sound-warping possibilities of digital pop and it pays huge dividends . The quality that really elevated their debut was the songwriting and it remains their strong suit , crafting rich melodies from interesting chord patterns driven by a muscular rhythm section . Every track on Volcano flows beautifully , almost overloaded with hooks and harmonies , and charged with rhythmic intent . But the soundscapes are infinitely brighter and weirder and more thrillingly modern . Their belated embrace of technological possibility encompasses the hypnotic and hallucinatory qualities of dance music , which has arguably been the true psychedelia of recent decades . To be fair , Kevin Parker 's Tame Impala bridged this gap on 2015 's Currents , and plenty of others are exploiting similar terrain , from the more flagrantly weird Flaming Lips in the United @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Temples have a charm of their own though , in the dashing peppiness of their song construction , which can bring to mind influences as unexpected as ABBA , Yes , Wizzard and the Kinks . But their debt to the kookiness of Syd Barrett 's Pink Floyd remains problematic , failing to align with the new purposefulness of the sound . The high , dreamy voice of guitarist and lead singer James Bagshaw is sweetly appealing , although it is often hard to discern what he is singing and harder still to care . In a recent interview he extolled the virtues of " the N+7 algorithm " , which involves replacing nouns with the seventh noun following it in a dictionary . This might help explain songs such as Oh ! The Saviour with such inscrutable couplets as " Take a sip from the detox dandy/ have a taste of the open pantry " . It is to be hoped that the next stage in Temple 's impressive evolution will be as meaningful lyricists . ? ? ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It has taken 15 years but grime seems poised on the edge of something big . The hard-hitting home-grown British rap genre was well represented at the Brit Awards earlier this week , acknowledging a year that has delivered hit singles and albums from artists such as Wiley , Kano and Mercury Prize-winner Skepta . What it really needs is someone to carry it into the mainstream ( as Dizzee Rascal once threatened to ) , with music that you do n't have to be a hardcore acolyte to appreciate . Stormzy is Michael Omari Jr , a 23-year-old , 6ft 5in , swaggeringly charismatic south Londoner with ambitions to match his physical presence . " I find it strange to aim for anything less than the greatest , " he said in a recent interview in which he identified " indie bands , soul singers and rock icons " as his competitors . " I do n't want to be the best rapper in the UK . I want to be the best artist . " Stormzy delights in defying expectations on a debut album @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ softer , deeper and more introspective sides . The title , Gang Signs & Prayer , plays up Stormzy 's dichotomy as a church-raised , God-fearing high achiever who revels in gangland battles but frets about the state of his soul . About half the album comprises witty , belligerent , repetitively phrased rants over high-tempo beats with fizzy , earworm electronic hooks , peppered with slang that will be all but incomprehensible to anyone for whom a " banger " is still another word for sausage . This may well be grime 's forte , but I remain unconvinced it has real crossover potential . Like heavy metal , it is simply too unyielding for the uncommitted . But Stormzy 's more thoughtful side comes to the fore on softer , American R'n'B flavoured sing-song raps Velvet , Cigarettes and Cush , 100 Bags and Do n't Cry For Me . He unveils a warm , fluent singing voice on Blinded by Your Grace ( Parts I and II ) , an out-and-out gospel anthem , complete with choirs , pianos and cheesy electric guitar . If @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . His ambitious debut ends on a starkly vulnerable and introspective note with Lay Me Bare , contemplating the emotional aftermath of being abandoned by his father . " There 's some s--- I hate to share , " he raps over dark and dreamy chords , then finds the courage to share it anyway . His peculiar mix of antagonism and soul-searching may not be enough to convert non-believers , but this bold , ambitious debut suggests that grime has found its most accomplished ambassador yet . ? ? ? ? ? Foot-stomping : Nikki Lane 's third album rebrands country music for the modern womanCredit : Getty Images " Yippee-ki-yay ! " These are the very first words heard on Nikki Lane 's third album , a cowboy clich ? yodelled with lusty intent . It signals the 33-year-old singer-songwriter 's absolute commitment to her genre , just in case you were left in any doubt after viewing an album cover in which she bestraddles a Texas longhorn cow . The former fashion stylist from South Carolina looks @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ snaps out hard-bitten couplets about hard working lives in a voice that mixes the sweet lilt of Loretta Lynn with the flat drawl of Johnny Cash . The snaky weave of twanging lead and tremulous pedal steel guitar that power her arrangements are all familiar tropes -- and none the less effective for it . But this is a version of country so retro-cool , acutely stylised and emotionally edgy that it sounds contemporary . Country is , effectively , the national music of the biggest market in the world , which goes some way to explaining its peculiar endurance in the digital pop world . It is inherently old-fashioned , built on acoustic guitars and formally structured songs , frequently espousing conservative values . It remains uncool , hampered by sentimentality and its tendency towards glistening , harmonically perfect over-production very much at odds with modern trends . Despite all this , in sales ( albeit not in streaming ) it still outsells pop and dance music in America . It has global reach too , with home-grown duos Ward Thomas and The Shires both topping the UK @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ outlaw country music that thrived in the Seventies , with such charismatic figures as Johnny Cash , Waylon Jennings , Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson , adding a streak of liberalism still shunned by mainstream American country radio yet in tune with modern pop . The first half of Highway Queen offers a succession of belters in which Lane rebrands the outlaw sensibility for the modern woman , appropriating the genre 's masculine clich ? s of drinking , driving , gambling and philandering . But it is the second half of the album that actually shows why country persists against all odds : at its best , it is unafraid of telling stories that dig deep into ordinary lives . Big Mouth is a sharp-tongued song about the destructive power of gossip ; Muddy Waters a philosophical lament about losing to another woman . And you wo n't hear a more bittersweet song about the tough choices of divorce than Forever Last Forever , in which Lane laments : " We swore for better or worse/ And it was better at first/ And worse at the end @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you understand why those weepy steel guitars will never go out of style . ? ? ? ? ? Old-fashioned : Rory Graham , or Rag ' n ' Bone Man , is a rough and ready character with a huge voiceCredit : Dan Dennison Some songs seem so obvious the first time you hear them , you wonder why no one has written them before . Rag ' n ' Bone Man 's Human is one such song . It is not just that the hook line , " I 'm only human , after all " , is a familiar phrase that rings here with profundity . It is also the way the weight of the beat , the ache in the melody , the dark tone of the chords and the rough gravity of the voice all fall in perfect synchrony , driving on to the heartfelt plea : " Do n't put your blame on me " . It is perfectly succinct , a blast of empathy for the tribulations of existence . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , popping up on television trailers , covered by X Factor contestants and number one in a dozen countries ( number two in the UK over Christmas ) . And there is more where that came from . Rag ' n ' Bone Man 's debut album does something pop arguably does better than any other art form : compress universal experiences into short bursts of energy and emotion . A big , bearded , tattooed singer from Uckfield , East Sussex , 31-year-old Rory Graham has a rich , baritone voice with a raw , tender falsetto that brings conviction to every line . He has gone through strict hip hop and blues phases over a decade on the fringes of the music business only to arrive at a solid , old-fashioned form of songwriting . Skin is a poignant , apocalyptic love song . Bitter End a bruised plea for a relationship on the ropes . Odetta a moving ballad about a wounded man saved by fatherhood . These are muscular tunes with verses , bridges and choruses in all the right places , simple hooks , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ philosophical lyrics . Graham won this year 's Brits Critics ' choice award and seems destined for massive stardom . This has n't happened by accident . A surprising number of well-connected writers and producers have been involved in his debut , names who have worked on everything from the unabashed bubblegum of One Direction and Little Mix to the sophisticated soul of Emeli Sand ? and Sam Smith . It is fair to assume Graham is being groomed as a male answer to Adele , a rough and ready character with a huge voice . What is perhaps surprising is that so many cooks have concocted something so unfussily potent , which would suggest the artist himself ( credited on every track ) is the dominant personality . Although it has some hip-hop swagger , Human is not particularly modern , forsaking the pliability of contemporary R'n'B for age-old blues structures and uncluttered arrangements . It is a reminder that , beyond the thrill-seeking singles , the mainstream audience still favour meaningful , emotional songs , delivered with passion . Rag ' n ' Bone Man 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? ? ? ? ? Pop 's best kept secret : Sampha Sampha Sisay moves in the most elevated circles of modern pop . The 28-year-old Londoner has sung hooks and made samples for Drake , Kanye West , Beyonc ? and Solange Knowles . His debut album , however , demonstrates little of the superstar swagger of American hip hop and R'n'B . It is painfully convoluted , a wracked internal monologue taking place in a warped , amorphous , dreamily introverted sonic space . It is also spookily beautiful . It is easy to see what has attracted the global pop elite to Sampha . His voice is immediately distinctive , soft and high-strung , rasping at the edges , thick and warm underneath , constantly fluctuating as if every line is wrought with emotion . It is a sound that has bubbled through the UK dance underground , percolating tracks by Jessie Ware , FKA Twigs and the world-music-flavoured electronica of SBTRKT . Left to his own devices , Sampha has plunged deeper underground . You could dance to some of these @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mind starting and stopping arbitrarily , while fretfully peering over your shoulder to see if anyone was watching . The key song on the album is undoubtedly ( No One Knows Me ) Like the Piano . Written in the wake of his mother 's death from cancer in 2015 , it is a desperately sad ballad about processing feelings through music . Ironically , in technical terms , it is the least " processed " song on the album , stripped to its bare elements . While piano and vocals lie at the intimate core of Sampha 's music , everything around constantly mutates and discombobulates in a haze of colliding synthetic and acoustic instruments , layered vocals and distorted beats . Emotions , though , ring out loud and true . There is a lot of anxiety on display . Blood On Me is a nightmare of pursuit and fear , with Sampha 's vocal gasping for breath over a whirling storm of sound . Reverse Faults is a claustrophobic miasma of guilt and jealousy , in which shimmering , stuttering rhythms break into brief , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ darkness again . There is so much going on , it proves a hard album to fully get to grips with , a shifting tableau of songs and sounds with only that mesmeric voice to hang on to . But when it gets under your skin , it proves immensely difficult to dislodge . Pushing through the same porous musical borders as accessible experimentalists the xx , James Blake , Frank Ocean and Bon Iver , Sampha 's beguiling debut is a further reminder of just how peculiar pop is becoming . Process seems unlikely to make Sampha a household name in his own right . Yet it has a drama and intensity that should increase his influence on those who already are . ? ? ? ? ? Northern rock : Guy Garvey , second from left , and Elbow have been together since their schooldays There is a moment on the opening track of Elbow 's seventh album that makes my heart surge . In that moment , the strings of Manchester 's Hall ? Orchestra arrive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's onrushing groove , and Guy Garvey 's languid voice swells with emotion . The song is called Magnificent ( She Says ) , and it is magnificent , a stirring paean to a childhood epiphany . You could n't mistake it for the work of anyone but Elbow . Emerging in the wake of Britpop , Elbow seemed capable of the same kind of singalong anthems that saw their contemporaries , Coldplay , achieve stadium-filling superstardom . But Elbow never made it to the top , commercially . There has always been something stubbornly unfashionable about their dense lyrics , jazzy melodies and intricate arrangements . They are like a British Steely Dan , only with a taste for pints and everyman wisdom , instead of cocktails and irony . A stout and genial barstool philosopher , Garvey is one of the most gifted lyricists in contemporary song . He relishes metre , and can conjure up striking images . In the track All Disco , he gently mocks the critical tendency to subdivide and categorise , too : " What does it prove if you 'd @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The theme of this inspiring album is graceful surrender . The 42-year-old frontman married the actress Rachael Stirling last year , and Little Fictions is crammed with romantic joy ( " Across the city there 's a golden chill/ A rare holding still/ As if somebody 's going to sing , " he trills on Head for Supplies ) allied to more sombre reflections on his past habits ( " I used to love a bar full of flickering stars far from home , " on Trust the Sun ) . The band add welcome bite to proceedings with the result that this album is immensely more satisfying than Garvey 's fussy 2015 solo debut , Courting the Squall . Together since school , Elbow evolved their peculiar style to fit Garvey 's ramblings . They conjure up delicate atmospheres peppered with detail , rising and falling around the singer rather than following formulaic song construction . Which is , perhaps , another reason why Elbow have never played the world 's biggest stages -- for all its beauty , Little Fictions would have more crossover potential @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what Elbow offer is an eloquent , immersive , emotional journey that can suddenly soar into the ether . The extraordinary eight-minute title track concocts comic pathos from childhood memories of family squabbles , then builds into an epic about the overriding imperative of love . As the band surge into a glorious coda , Garvey proclaims : " Love is the original miracle . " And it really does feel like an act of grace . ? ? ? ? ? California ink : Kehlani has been tipped as the successor to Rihanna Everything about Californian singer Kehlani seems very on trend , from her mononymous name to her disregard for punctuation . Her debut album , SweetSexySavage , is filled with declarations of passion and independence , a form of standard pop bravado in which she proclaims affiliation with bitches and gangstas and all manner of ne'er do wells . Small , lithe and pretty , her appearance is toughened with cropped hair and enough tattoos to start a parlour . Indeed , she looks like she could understudy for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ own maverick path more recently , you can see why the music business might be excited about a potential replacement . She has been tipped as a future American pop diva by everyone from Apple Music to Rolling Stone magazine . Only 21 , Kehlani Parrish has already been around the block as part of teen group Poplyfe , finalists on America 's Got Talent in 2011 . She was developed as a solo artist by the show 's presenter and producer Nick Canon , sang the theme for last year 's superhero movie Suicide Squad , duetted with One Direction 's Zayn Malik on his solo album and was Grammy-nominated last year for an internet-only " mixtape " . Although this is billed as her debut , it is effectively Kehlani 's third full-length release . SweetSexySavage certainly justifies the hype . Her seductively understated blend of R'n'B and hip-hop is the zeitgeist sound of the charts , weaving pop melodies and provocative lyrics through sinuous soul grooves . More adventurous talents , such as Kanye West , Frank Ocean , James Blake , Bon Iver , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is still fresh enough to offer relief from the gaudy plastic excesses of electronic dance pop . Kehlani proves adept at conjuring mobile beats from ghostly , stripped back rhythm sections , delicate patterns of tricky hi-hats and handclap snares set to slow moving synth bass . Unfussy , spacious arrangements are held together by finely textured webs of backing vocals . It is in this department that Kehlani comes into her own . The mellifluous quality and range of her singing harks back to the sensual nuances of Nineties Nu Soul : Maxwell , D'Angelo , Jill Scott and Erykah Badu . Indeed , there is something deeply old fashioned lurking beneath Kehlani 's tattooed skin . The personality that emerges here is surprisingly gentle , with lots of slow jams about self-awareness , positive personal philosophies and respect for others . Musically , it would seem that Alicia Keys is a stronger personal role model than Rihanna . For all the swagger , then , Kehlani proves rather more sweet than savage . ? ? ? ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Marie Andrews " Some people take a little more time to grow , " sings Courtney Marie Andrews on the title track of Honest Life . It is a telling statement from someone who has been knocking around for a while , honing her skills , before finding it within herself to craft an absolutely perfect little gem of an album at the sixth attempt . Andrews is only 25 but has already spent almost a decade on the road as a professional musician , touring since she was 16 , singing backing vocals for arena rock band Jimmy Eat World and travelling as lead guitarist for cult Americana star Damien Jurado . She has also recorded five previous albums of poetic heart-on-her-sleeve sensitive singer-songwriting , so when she tells us " this ai n't no rookie dreaming " on the opening of her sixth release , you can genuinely sense the weight of experience in her voice . Unfolding with a very unhurried , understated assurance , Rookie Dreaming serves as a compelling introduction to an album that uses life on the road as a framework @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are shadowed by the notion that freedom might come at a cost . Honest Life is full of songs of longing and regret , tinged by a belief in the redemptive possibilities of change and wrapped up in stories of everyday , hard-working lives . Classic country material , in other words , delivered with an unfussy blend of acoustic and electric guitars , resonant pianos and weeping pedal steels . She is not reinventing the wagon wheel but sometimes it is really about the little things done well , and every song here sparkles . It is evocative of the roots country rock pioneered by Gram Parsons and adapted by the great Seventies singer-songwriters of Laurel Canyon . Andrews 's voice is pure and sweet with nuanced warbles and flutters and a little break on the top notes , bringing to mind the tremulous flow of Emmylou Harris with hints of Joni Mitchell 's worldly wisdom , while the poetic economy of her lyrics is right up there with such masters of the country vignette as Guy Clark and John Prine . What really separates this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that makes personal and emotional details land with impact . These are not songs that beg for the listener 's sympathy . It really sounds like Andrews 's first audience is herself , and this is her coming of age . If this was a debut , we would be hailing Andrews as a precocious young genius . But perhaps , in this age of acceleration , amid a pop blizzard of viral memes and instant digital fame , the slow maturing of a truly substantial talent is something to really celebrate . ? ? ? ? ? Back in the swing : from left , the members of the xx , Jamie Smith , Romy Madley Croft and Oliver Sim A brass fanfare is probably not what anyone was expecting from the opening of a new album by the xx . Which I suppose is the point . The London minimalists have been key architects of the new quiet , an understated spaciousness that has slowly wormed its way into pop music via the downbeat hip hop of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their Mercury-winning debut in 2009 , the very starkness of the trio 's dubby sound immediately set them apart from the clubbing crowd , establishing a reputation as the most moody and introverted exponents of sensuous hush . But when everyone is turning down the volume , the shock of silence can no longer be relied upon to command attention . So while it is certainly a surprise to hear the xx come charging out of the blocks on Dangerous , a brashly synthetic bass-driven dance track about taking chances , it proves a welcome one . As the softly modulated , inherently mournful voices of singer-bassist Oliver Sim and singer-guitarist Romy Madley Croft blend , it is reassuringly apparent that the xx 's very particular emotional aesthetic and pop songcraft is not actually dependent on atmospherics for effect . Even the sound of keyboard and sample merchant Jamie Smith ( aka Jamie xx ) firing off a siren in the background can not shatter the intimacy the duo vocalists conjure up , with an understated delivery that trembles with passionate veracity . Before confirmed fans swap @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be noted this is not an album of xx bangers . All things being relative , their most overheated dynamics would still register as chilled in a techno club . The influence of Smith 's solo dance album , In Colour , is apparent in stronger electronic flavours and a preponderance of loops and samples but they never overcrowd arrangements , maintaining the subdued tone of a party going on in another room . These splashes of new musical colour correspond with a growing confidence and maturity in the songs themselves , but the overall mood remains intensely vulnerable . The xx have been such effective minimalists because they have always made sure each individual element earns its place , while the beating heart of the song remains tenderly exposed . They make little things count . It remains true of an album filled with songs of gentle , profound self-revelation , where the key seems to be finding confidence to speak deep and sometimes painful truths . On Brave For You , an astonishingly exposed song of surviving grief after the death of a parent , Madley @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ am afraid to do " , which could serve as a description of this fragile trio 's entire modus operandi . Even at their boldest , the xx still sound like they are treading on eggshells. |

The sentence 'Airlines are being accused of wriggling out of paying millions of pounds in compensation to passengers because of 'flimsy and inconsistent' laws in the UK.' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Here, 'Airlines' is the NP subject, 'wriggling' is the V1, 'paying millions of pounds in compensation to passengers' is the VP2[-ing] predicate, and it implies a prevention interpretation (preventing the payment of compensation). The verb 'wriggling' can be categorized under 'By means of exerting force or pressure, sometimes understood metaphorically'.

Airlines are being accused of wriggling out of paying millions of pounds in compensation to passengers because of ' flimsy and inconsistent ' laws in the UK . Compensation claims company EUclaim says UK courts interpret regulations to mean strike action by trade unions is classed as an ' extraordinary circumstance ' and is out of an airline 's control . But in other countries , such as Holland , passengers are allowed to claim against the airlines in cases when a flight has been delayed by three hours or more , even when it 's due to airline strike action . EUclaim is calling for a redefinition of the term ' extraordinary ' in relation to airline strikes . " Just looking at the way travellers are able to claim compensation in the UK baffles me , " said Adeline Noorderhaven , UK manager for EUclaim .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It describes an event where something happened 'out of nothing', which is a different construction and does not involve a causee or a VP[-ing] predicate with movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Some close family friends are Manchester United season ticket holders and I got a lift up from them , Rob and his mother-in-law Cath picking me up from work . We were aware of the likely M56 crawl before we set off and our expectations were certainly met as we slowly made our way towards Old Trafford , Rob parking up about a 20 minute walk from the ground , just away from all the heavy after-match traffic . Before kick off we just about had time for a quick pint . " We 'll go the Town Hall " said Rob . Noticing my curious look he continued " It 's a pie and a pint for fiver ! " . And sure enough , we got there and it was just that , complete with a reasonable selection of beers , quick service and a tasty pie . It was nice to recharge a little after a frustrating drive . We also gave ourselves plenty of time to get into the ground . Rob and Cath going one way , me taking Sir Matt Busby Way to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up to my seat rather effortlessly , the players going through their final drills before heading in for final preparations . The team was changed somewhat from the Merseyside derby with Ronald Koeman deciding to go with four at the back , removing Matthew Pennington and drafting Gareth Barry into the midfield . Kevin Mirallas was preferred to Dominic Calvert-Lewin in attack . I was a little surprised to see Joel Robles retain his place in goal after quite an awful performance against Liverpool . Ex-blue Marouane Fellaini began the game for Manchester United whilst up front Zlatan Ibrahimavic returned from suspension . It 's a fabulous stadium Old Trafford and the Everton supporters certainly got behind their team from the off , though I am sad to report on a fair bit of racist language from a few guys around me aimed at pretty much any of the black players out there , including our striker . " Revel-head " and " Malteser-head " amongst others are of course unacceptable names to be thrown at players and I was sad to hear that from , I must stress @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's been some time since I 've heard anything like that . This takes the shine off what was a dogged and spirited effort from Everton . We began brightly and got to grips with the game fairly early in what was quite the battle with tackles going in . Sadly the referee failed to officiate the game fairly , giving Manchester United the benefit of the majority of decisions and booking Idrissa Gana Gueye early on while letting Marouane Fellaini get away with similar offences without caution . Our opener came somewhat out of nothing when Phil Jagielka did brilliantly to improvise and turn in a volley with his back to goal , squeezing it through the legs of David de Gea . A strange goal that one but good to see us now a threat from corner kicks again after our set-piece purgatory under Roberto Martinez . It took a while from where we were to figure out who had squeezed the ball in , until we realised it was Phil Jagielka who had sneaked it home as the players re-emerged for the restart . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was also from a set-piece , this time when Daley Blind 's free kick was well saved by Joel Robles . Andre Herrera was first to the rebound but could only hit the crossbar from a tight angle . Jesse Lingard was simply pathetic in winning the free kick , deliberately obstructing Kevin Mirallas and then going down in a heap when Kevin tried to get around him . The referee was just as pathetic in his free kick award , this one of a series of poor decisions by Neil Swarbrick throughout the game . We arrived art the break unscathed having defended resolutely . As for the second half , I 'm a bit torn on what to make of it . The lads were ever so spirited and fought hard for what really should have been a very gritty three points , but Manchester United were not really getting past us and I felt we were looking good for the win until Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Luke Shaw were introduced . Luke Shaw , taking to the field to chants of " you fat bastard " from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was able to offer a better quality of cross , whereas Henrikh Mkhitaryan was able to offer more vibrancy as an attacking threat . This forced Ronald Koeman into a reactive change and I felt we went too defensive too early . With a quarter of the game still to play the lively Kevin Mirallas was sacrificed for another central defender in Matthew Pennington . I felt this played a bit more into Manchester United 's hands and they were able to really pin us back and pile on the pressure . That said , we did have plenty of chances to break and it was a combination of either the final ball lacking ; the final ball well defended ; or , more predominately , a real lack of cohesion between our forward players , that ensured the second goal never came . As the game wore on , though a lot was asked of him , we really needed more from Romalu but he was dead on his feet and could only contribute in fits and starts . At the other end , in no particular order @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ where again given a free kick when Everton should have had it first but the referee typically favoured the hosts ; Marouane Fellaini span and shot comfortably wide ; Zlatan Ibrahimovic had the ball in the net but it was disallowed for offside ; and , Zlatan headed over the crossbar with a good opportunity . Joel Robles , unrecognisable from the frozen man on Saturday , mopped up the rest . The travelling Evertonians roared their team on throughout . We were into injury time and Everton had withstood a barrage of pressure and looked to be heading for the points . Maybe pressure brings panic and panic leads to bad decision making ? Well it was certainly misguided of Ashley Williams to handle Luke Shaw 's effort . Joel Robles likely would have saved it , but handle he did and the referee really had to give the penalty , much to his glee no doubt . A red card also for Ashley which the referee also really had to give . Having missed a penalty in his last outing I did n't really have much hope @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ doubt as he tucked it away in the corner . Everton tried to rally but as soon as it was punted long from to Romalu Lukaku from a free kick , Neil Swarbrick blew for full time ... of course . What a gutting way to have a win snatched away from you . I really thought we had done it but it was n't to be . Credit to the buys to reacting with such spirit following Saturday 's disappointment . It 's a real shame as winning at Old Trafford would have made quite a statement and would have put us up to fifth position , even if temporarily . What an Everton way to lose out on the three points . Still with seven games to play and four of them at home , we have an opportunity to finish the season strongly and you never know , it 's possible that Arsenal and Manchester United could drop more points yet , even with their games in hand . Perhaps more crucially , so long as we do n't finish any lower than we are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ next season . Let 's finish the job for this campaign , do some positive transfer business this summer and look forward as it 's been a very promising campaign . Onwards and upwards Blues . Robles : Unrecognisable from Saturday 's game and I 'm dumbfounded as to how a player can be so poor one game yet so pivotal and decisive the next . Maddening. 9 Baines : Did very well and worked ever so hard both at left back and as wing back . A great effort . 8 Jagielka : A rock solid display and it 's hard to fathom that he was performing so poorly earlier in the season that he was dropped . A true captains performance both with the goal and his marshalling of the back line and he was the most unlucky on the pitch not to finish on the winning team . My man of the match . 9 Williams : Ruined what was perhaps his best performance yet with his handball . I liked the telling off he gave to Romalu @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ played up to him . Like most of us , I 've been largely unimpressed with Ashley , but this performance shows what he can be capable of . There could be hope for him yet , even if he has to sit out on Sunday against the champions . 7 Holgate : Did very well and is much more comfortable at right back with some protection ahead of him . 8 Barry : Particularly in the second half he was very handy and made plenty of defensive tackles , headers and clearances . Also unlucky not to have finished on the winning team . My prove a vital squad player next season . 8 Gueye : Also excellent . Got about the pitch in his usual manner and did well given how long he had to do so with a caution against his name . A solid effort . 8 Davies : Worked tirelessly though struggled . As with all young players , you have to let them make their mistakes and learn the hard way . Give him a couple of years and he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : Was lively throughout and unlucky to be hooked . I imagine he wo n't start the next game - surely Ronald Koeman ca n't have been impressed with his petulant attitude when he was substituted . 7 Barkley : Had a good game and used the ball well most of the time . Was fairly effective in the second half before substituted . 7 Lukaku : Battled well basically until our defensive reshuffle and then he hardly seemed interested and seemed to sulk a bit when more was needed of him . He was simply exhausted come the last 10 minutes however , which is probably why Dominic Calvert-Lewin was sent on to support him . 6 Substitutes:Pennington ( for Mirallas ) : Made some good tackles and clearances as Everton soaked up the pressure . He will feel better for his efforts after his Merseyside derby struggles . 6Calvert-Lewin ( for Barkley ) : Was difficult circumstances to come into but he could n't quite affect the game as was perhaps hoped . 5 Note : the following @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the time of submission . Comments are the responsibility of the poster . Disclaimer Mike Gaynes 1Posted 05/04/2017 at 07:31:34 My feeling is that almost all your ratings are about a point too high , Paul ... I ca n't give 9s and 8s in a drawn game where we were so dominated at times ... but agree with most of your comments , especially about Jags and Williams , who were immense . It was n't just Williams who was giving Rom stick ... the usually quiet Baines was all over him as well , and when you piss off your teammates that much , you 're having a stinker . Rom just was n't involved enough or sufficiently connected with his teammates , especially at the end when he was needed . I think you 're overly generous with the subs ... the oddly-chosen Pennington still looked panicky to me , and Calvert-Lewin was a disaster . At a time when we needed someone to not only keep the ball but drive at goal , Calvert-Lewin lost every challenge and fell over on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ choosing Lookman or Valencia instead . I give him an 8 for his lineup and game plan and a 3 for his subs . Jim Burns 2Posted 05/04/2017 at 07:43:44 Thanks , Paul ? I agree with most of your assessment particularly Swarbrick 's handling of the game . An obvious and nasty challenge by Young more or less in front of the dugout going unpunished sticks in my mind . I would take a slightly different view of Barkley 's performance , however ? good in spells , but he had two clear chances to turn the screw on the break and just seemed to hesitate bringing each move to a messy end ? one of them taking play backwards into our own half from close to the edge of their box . I 'm now having serious doubts this lad has enough to make it with us ? a shame , but I have a feeling Koeman could be coming to the end of his tether with him . I hope he proves me wrong . Depressing to hear the Neanderthals are still @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't complete a sentence without the word ' cunt ' in it ? not kids either . Two feet away from my daughter and a young boy next to her . It really does turn your stomach . Thanks again , Paul , for the time and effort ? onwards and upwards . Xavier Spencer 3Posted 05/04/2017 at 08:29:17 Good report , Paul , a maddening night indeed . On the subject of the racist away support , I 'm afraid it is still a problem . These toe rags think being away from home somehow gives them licence to freely vent their spleen . I witnessed it at Wembley against Chelsea and afterwards wished I 'd made a note of the seat numbers of those involved and reported it to the club . Maybe this is a course of action worth considering taking in the future ? Geoff Williams 4Posted 05/04/2017 at 08:29:41 Once again , Koeman 's use of substitutes showed poor judgement . I could n't understand the Mirallas substitution and the second substitution beggars belief . Surely Valencia was the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Williams but he did have a good game until the penalty . I hope all the critics of Jagielka and Barry have had a reality check , the two were outstanding last night . Ian McPherson 5Posted 05/04/2017 at 09:47:59 I have to disagree , Williams had to handle that to stop a certain goal . Robles was still on his feet when that was en route to the bottom corner of the goal . And lets be honest , Man Utd 's form of attack compared to Liverpool 's is massive . They are happy to throw the cross into the box or the long punt/pass in repeatedly where the like of Jags and Williams will mop that up all day . Liverpool get the ball down and run and press defenders in numbers . We panicked every time on Saturday they did that . Pennington probably is still having nightmares and Holgate too . At the other end of the pitch , would I swap Rom and Barks for Sigurdsson and another workmanlike striker ? Yes , in a heartbeat . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ drops Rom for the next few games ... the only time the experts on TV talked about Everton last night was all about the striker and Williams having a go at each other . We have nothing to play for now and if Rom ca n't be bothered to show for the big games then bench him ... James Byrne 7Posted 05/04/2017 at 12:04:00 Good report . I think the changing moment was bringing off Mirallas for Pennington . For all his frustrations he held the ball up very effectively for us and took a lot of pressure from the midfield and defence . The last two games have given me enough proof that we need to offload two players in the closed season , Lukaku and Barkley . It 's time to cash in while we can and start to rebuild this team with fresh investment . Barry Pearce 8Posted 05/04/2017 at 12:13:06 I know we need new faces that 's for sure . I agree Sigurdsson would be a fantastic signing , since I knew we tried to sign him @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I can ( only on TV ) ... his delivery hits the money nine times out of ten . Just his all round game is top drawer . Just hope we can make this happen . David Pearl 9Posted 05/04/2017 at 12:25:01 Pennington was on to mop up after Man Utd put 2 up top . Mirallas had a good enough game for him as maybe that change was five minutes too early . Also good to see Williams shout at Lukaku and start to show the leadership we bought him for . Is that a 3 game ban for a straight red ? Maybe we can do a Barcelona and play with just one at the back in Jags . I 'd like to bring Browning back from loan if we can . Charlie Lloyd 10Posted 05/04/2017 at 12:40:31 Dave @ 9 I watched the Everton show last Friday . Browning is back from loan at Preston . Injured . Do n't know how long for but surely Kenny at RB with Holgate inside is the other option to Pennington @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ One of the main differences I noticed last night was between Lukaku and Zlatan . Every time Rom got a run on goal he tried to just bulldoze his way through and failed on every occasion even when there were really good options ( Barkley and Mirallas come to mind ) for a pass to a better placed player . Whenever Zlatan got the ball he always looks for other options and only then if there are n't any he will take it on himself unless it 's a clear chance for himself . It 's all very well being greedy as a striker but Rom seems more interested in making himself look good rather than the team . Maybe that 's what Ashley was saying to him ! Terry Underwood 12Posted 05/04/2017 at 13:18:30 Good reaction after Saturday . Kieran Kinsella 13Posted 05/04/2017 at 13:56:50 Could n't we bring Galloway back ? On the pen , I blame Robles . Either call it or tell Williams to move if he 's in your way . Schmeichel senior for example @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ very few . We know Robles has a mouth on him as he bitches to the media when he 's dropped . He needs to boss the penalty area . In lieu of instructions from behind I think Williams took the view " do no nothing and concede , or get sent off and they get a penalty . Certain goal or 50/50 chance of a goal . " It 's ironic too that his detractors are lamenting his absence . Based on the comments on here about him all season , you 'd think people would be happy he 's suspended . Barry McNally 14Posted 05/04/2017 at 14:03:56 Are the ratings out of 20 or higher ! Mike Gaynes 15Posted 05/04/2017 at 14:10:06 Kieran ( #13 ) , sorry but that 's total nonsense . Fraction of a second between the shot and its arrival . Robles would have had to be both clairvoyant and telepathic to communicate with Williams in time . Williams made an instantaneous decision , and a correct one in my view , because it appears the shot is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The penalty giveaway would n't even be a topic if we did what other sides do when 1-0 up in injury time ... Take the ball to the corner flag and maintain possession or win a few throw-ins , anything as long as the opposition are n't bobbing the bloody thing about in our penalty area . Yet again , just like the Chelsea away game last season , we do n't have cool heads when we needed them most . For some unknown reason when Everton are leading these away games with basically seconds left they just ca n't see it out . Rank amateur , it 's gone on for years and I 'll say it again ? this summer , we need to look at employing a sports psychologist . Tony Heron 17Posted 05/04/2017 at 15:14:24 Kieron , you 've obviously never played in goal . A keeper will call for a cross or a corner or an overhit through ball but a shot fired in ? He would need to be superhuman to anticipate something like that . Not even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would have managed that ! Franny Porter 18Posted 05/04/2017 at 15:21:32 Did anyone see Lukaku slating Williams at the new 59 Pogba ? The guy is an arsehole , he 's over rated , does n't turn up when he 's really needed and has a disrespecting shit attitude . Get rid . Jay Harris 19Posted 05/04/2017 at 17:21:40 Someone needs to show Lukaku an Andy Gray video . He was a typical workmanlike centre-forward who would control and pass or give and go . So much like Costa , protecting the ball and holding defenders off . This is why so many do not rate Lukaku . He still has so much to learn about the game . Kieran Kinsella 20Posted 05/04/2017 at 17:25:52 Do we know he was slating Williams ? He could 've been saying anything ... Kieran Kinsella 21Posted 05/04/2017 at 17:28:28 Mike/Tony Ok I 'm no goalie so maybe I was wrong about Joel 's but mainly I 'm defending Williams .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'takes the emotion out of investing' does not involve an NP object that is a causee participating in the event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a transformation of the process of investing into a mechanical one, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Today is an important day because it marks the end of the current tax year . If it 's caught you unaware , you 're probably not the only one . After all , there 's been a lot going on , whether it 's bracing for Brexit , European elections or the longevity of the Trump trade . These things matter to the global economy and , depending on who you are and what you do , they could matter to your money . But arguably nothing matters more than getting your personal finances sorted in line with the changes marking the end of one tax year , and the dawn of a new one . Find the time , or make the time , whether you use today 's lunch break or the commute back home . Here 's a rundown of things you should consider before the clock chimes midnight tonight . Today is your last chance to shelter ? 15,240 in an Isa , where your money can grow without you ever facing a tax bill on any income gains or capital growth @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ each year ( unless you 're a very high earner ) and if you miss this year 's deadline you can carry forward the unused allowance for another three years . But it does n't work that way with Isas -- these tax-efficient wrappers are known as a " use it or lose it " benefit for good reason . That 's nice , I hear you say . But life 's getting expensive and you have n't seen a salary increase in forever , so you simply do n't have that amount of " spare cash " lying around . Fair enough . If this is the case , you can still set up a regular monthly savings plan to get you on track to meet next year 's Isa deadline . A regular investment plan can start with as little as ? 50 a month . It also takes the emotion out of investing -- making it into a mechanical monthly process provides the discipline to keep saving and reduces the risk of buying at the top of the market or selling at the bottom , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2 . Pension planning -- cash in on Carry Forward Thanks to " carry forward " you can take unused pension allowances from up to the three previous tax years and add this to your annual allowance for the current year , giving your pension savings a welcome boost . Bear in mind though that the amount contributed using carry forward should not exceed your total earnings for the year ( or you wo n't benefit from the tax relief available on pension contributions ) . Carry forward can be useful if you 're nearing retirement and want to maximise the amount you put away before you stop work and your income falls . It may also prove particularly valuable for those with high salaries . That 's because for every ? 2 that your adjusted income exceeds ? 150,000 , your annual allowance reduces by ? 1 . The maximum reduction to the annual allowance is ? 30,000 , which means it falls to ? 10,000 when your adjusted income hits ? 210,000 . Broadly , adjusted income includes income from earnings along with returns from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ contributions from an employer . This year the potential for using carry forward is reducing because , after April , the 2013-14 tax year will fall out of the three-year period . That 's important because the annual allowance in 2013-14 was ? 50,000 . You can make pension contributions up until today ( 5 April 2017 ) for the current tax year , but it must be in time for your scheme to register the contribution . If you 're a property owner , you may be gloating over how much your home has risen in value in recent years . But there may be a price to pay in the form of an inheritance tax bill for your nearest and dearest . This is because the threshold at which inheritance tax is due , known as the nil rate band , has not nearly kept pace with the rapid rise in UK property prices . As a result , more and more estates are being drawn into the scope of this tax . But from tomorrow @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the deceased passes on a primary residence , known as the " family home allowance " or " main residence nil rate band " . This will begin at ? 100,000 in the 2017-18 tax year and increase by ? 25,000 each tax year , reaching ? 175,000 by 2021 . From 2021-2022 onwards it will increase in line with inflation , as measured by the consumer price index ( CPI ) . The residence nil rate band is available on top of the existing inheritance tax nil rate band of ? 325,000 . So by 2020-21 an individual will potentially be able to leave ? 500,000 free of inheritance tax , meaning a married couple or civil partnership will share an inheritance tax threshold of ? 1m between them -- that 's the nil rate band ( ? 325,000 x 2 = ? 650,000 ) plus the residence nil rate band ( ? 175,000 x 2 = ? 350,000 ) . This change is limited to the family home and only available to children or grandchildren -- " direct descendants " . It 's designed to help @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . To ensure the change does not discourage the older generation from downsizing , those who sold up after 7 July 2015 will still be able to pass on the proceeds of the family home , provided they lived in the property in question at some point and that assets of an equivalent value are passed on to direct descendants . While many people choose to leave it down to the wire , when it comes to your investments , it 's typically better to start as early as you can rather than leave it to the very last minute . Time really is the most powerful force in investment and every extra day you allow it to work on your Isa or pension portfolio is a day that you wo n't get back if you let it pass with your money sitting in a low-interest-paying bank account . By starting at the beginning of the tax year , you give your money an additional 12 months to benefit from the magical power of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ investment returns on the investment returns you 've already achieved . If you missed the boat this tax year , the best thing you can do is make an immediate start on next year 's savings . Tomorrow the annual Isa allowance for the new tax year increases to a very generous ? 20,000 . You 'll have 365 days to make the most of this new opportunity . |

If you were to take your childhood memories of pitting mismatched toys like He-Man , Ninja Turtles and Action Man into heated battles against ridiculously over baked villains set on world domination , then you 'd essentially have the core of Volitions new Saints Row spin-off - Agents of Mayhem . On the face of it , the game has got the same elements that Volition is well-known for . Ballbusting action with more guns than your average NRA meet up , bombastic characters all of whom have their tongues firmly sewn to cheek and an open world that begs to be cruised through at high speeds while firing swathes of bullets at enemies . The change here , however , is a dare we say it Overwatch feel to this new action-packed team-based system . Wednesday , 5th April 2017 Cue the action music !

From Oni , the Yakuza Hitman to Daisy , the beer guzzling loud mouth roller derby gal , Agents of Mayhem rethinks the load out system . Putting teamwork at the core . Instead of changing weapons , you select a fire team of 3 agents who are going to suit your play style and change team member when you need to shake things up or change tack , with a simple tap of your D-Pad . Delivered through 90 's cartoon cutscenes that 'll no doubt make G.I Joe fans will feel all warm inside , you 'll swiftly learn that the anti-hero organisation known as MAYHEM have only one goal . Stopping the evil LEGION and it 's unknown benefactor Morningstar . Do n't worry too much though , their anti-hero status means you 're free to blow the hell out of anything in Seoul as long as you complete your mission . Aside from story missions , you 'll also have outposts which need taking over via extreme force to unlock more things to do ( though word on what @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . There 's also individual character missions which unlock new Agents and give a tasty morsel of their private lives along the way . In our time with the game for example , we helped Daisy retrace her steps after a heavy session which started with some light abuse aimed at an automated fast food chain . It ended in a secret underground robot fight club , which we of course closed for good with the aid of Daisy 's mini gun and a healthy dose of bullets . It definitely explained the hangover and showcased that distinctive Volition humour we 've come to expect . Aside from the endless amounts of explosions and vibrant fast paced action , there is indeed some deeper mechanics at play also . Each of the 12 agents can be levelled up to a rather sky scrapping 40 , building their skill tree along the way and adding unlocked gadgets also offers some much-appreciated buffs to particular stats . There 's a triple jump too ! We mentioned that was a thing right ? Well , Volition @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it definitely made moving around the map a lot smoother while reminding us a lot of Crackdown . That 's said , we have to admit that as a whole , it 's nothing groundbreaking . We 've also some concerns that Agents may end up more of a luke warm Battleborn release than another Overwatch when the game releases this August . But , for the time being , Agents of Mayhem already looks like a solid and exciting arcade experience , full of all the explosions , foul-mouthed characters and mental missions that any Saints Row fan could ask for . |

Forty trusts said they do not allow drivers to pay for parking when they exit the car park - leaving people to guess how long they would need to be in hospital and making some rush back to their car to avoid penalties . A similar number of trusts said that they offered pay-on-exit parking at some but not all hospital sites .

RAC spokesman Simon Williams said anyone arriving at hospital - either as a patient or a visitor - had far more important things to worry about than paying for parking . He added : " In the 21st Century we also think it is unreasonable to expect drivers to have to estimate how long their visit to hospital might take .

Forty trusts said they do not allow drivers to pay for parking when they exit the car park - leaving people to guess how long they would need to be in hospital and making some rush back to their car to avoid penalties . A similar number of trusts said that they offered pay-on-exit parking at some but not all hospital sites . Meanwhile 36 trusts said they allowed people to pay when their visit was over at all hospitals while the rest could not provide any data . RAC spokesman Simon Williams said anyone arriving at hospital - either as a patient or a visitor - had far more important things to worry about than paying for parking . He added : " In the 21st Century we also think it is unreasonable to expect drivers to have to estimate how long their visit to hospital might take .

He added : " Our helpline has received calls regarding this unacceptable overcharge , which we regard as simply a tax on ill health .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'taking the pain out of paying to park', where 'paying to park' is an NP complement of the complex preposition 'out of', not a VP[-ing] predicate with a causee.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object and does not involve a causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action denoted by a VP[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'grown out of' in a different sense, indicating a change over time rather than causation or prevention.

Remember that time some Wigan Athletic fan made that song about Will Grigg , to the tune of GALA 's ' Freed From Desire ' ? Of course you do . You could n't fucking get through a day without hearing it last summer . With Grigg was part of the Northern Ireland squad that featured at the European Championships last summer , and although he did n't feature for his country during the tournament , the chant was belted out everywhere Michael O'Neil 's side went in France . Not only that , it spawned other versions , too . Also at the Euros , we witnessed England fans attempt to create their own for Jamie Vardy . Arguably the most cringeworthy of the lot , we also saw this from Wimbledon ... With all that , you 'd think @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would 've grown out of trying to make ' <insert name of sports star or sports team here> 's on fire ' songs . Sadly , this is not the case . Rugby League fans will have heard all about the Toronto Wolfpack . The newly formed Canadian club are competing in the third tier of English Rugby League and are widely expected to reach the Super League in years to come . Having recorded their most emphatic win of the season so far - 82-6 against Doncaster - their players were clearly quite pleased with themselves . As the dressing room footage shows , they decided to celebrate the win by belting out ... wait for it ... ' Wolfpacks on fire ' . Not only are they painfully behind on this , but the lack of apostrophes in the tweet below makes it sound like this is just a group of men that enjoys setting fire to groups of wolves - and that their song is not a metaphor for a convincing sporting performance . |

Chelsea beat Bournemouth 3-1 to stay seven points clear at the top of the Premier League , while Tottenham remain second after a 4-0 win at home to Watford . Liverpool stay third with a 2-1 win at Stoke City , Manchester City remain fourth following a 3-1 victory over Hull City , and Manchester United climb up to fifth as they beat bottom club Sunderland 3-0 . Elsewhere , there were wins for Southampton away to West Brom , West Ham against Swansea and Everton at home to Leicester , while Middlesbrough and Burnley ended goalless . Pick your XI from our list and share with your friends . Simon Mignolet has a 53% save percentage on shots inside the box in the league this season He 's taken a fair amount of stick during his time at Liverpool but the hug from Jurgen Klopp at the end of the match seems to suggest that goalkeeper Simon Mignolet was not just in good form but had done something quite special . It was the save from Saido @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ keeping Liverpool on course for a Champions League spot . Moments before , Mignolet also made a point-blank save from Charlie Adam when he and Berahino practically apologised to each other for taking the strike . However , in my view Klopp has failed to address the most obvious issue facing Liverpool since the start of the season - that is their back four . Mignolet has recovered his season with some sparkling performances since being dropped earlier in the campaign . Yet if the German manager had got his back four right it 's difficult to see how Chelsea could be 12 points clear of the Reds with six games left to play . Hugging Mignolet in sheer relief that his keeper has kept him in with a massive shout of Champions League football next season is a bit of a cop out for me . Liverpool should have been challenging for the title . Matthew Lowton has produced more tackles than any other Burnley player in the Premier League this season Matthew Lowton 's headed clearance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ absolutely sensational . For the full-back to recognise that his keeper Tom Heaton was vulnerable and that Downing was about to put the free-kick over the wall and into the top right-hand corner was intuitive genius . Lowton left the wall having spotted the danger . But if that was n't enough he almost immediately afterwards cleared off the line again - this time from Daniel Ayala 's header . These two clearances were not just brilliant but game changers . I 've seen defenders panic in those positions and head the ball into the roof of their own net or get their feet in a tangle at the crucial moment . Lowton was as steady as a rock and kept his eye on the ball - clearing his lines and the danger . It 's these moments in games that define seasons for teams like Burnley . This was a fixture that produced no goals but in the final analysis Burnley did n't care . They have begged , borrowed and stolen points this season and Lowton - like their entire back five - did a superb @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) West Ham have won four of the seven league games that James Collins has featured in 2017 West Ham boss Slaven Bilic was manic throughout this affair and understandably so . The Hammers had lost five games on the bounce and rumours were rife that West Ham 's directors had a contingency in place - whatever that meant - had Bilic suffered his sixth consecutive defeat . There was so much riding on this result and Bilic did well to put his faith in an old head with a lot of experience . James Collins was that man and he did everything that needed to be done . He was magnificent in the air and needed to be , particularly when Fernando Llorente came on in the second half for Swansea . The Spanish centre forward raised the stakes for the Hammers and it forced Collins to put his body on the line on a number of occasions . Swansea on the other hand seemed like a team who were suffering from stage fright and paralysed by fear . It would appear their 3-1 drubbing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ impact on the team 's confidence than they realised . David Luiz has featured on the winning side 21 times in the Premier League this season What a wonderful ball from David Luiz to Victor Moses . It resulted in Diego Costa 's superb turn and Chelsea 's fortuitous opening goal . I 'm not in the least bit surprised by Luiz 's ability to knock a 40-yard pass . This is a defender with so much ability he can do that and much more . However , as the season draws to a close and Chelsea put a date in the diary for a trip to the Premier League engravers , I would like to commend Antonio Conte and Chelsea technical director Michael Emenalo for having the foresight and courage to bring Luiz back to Stamford Bridge . The Brazilian international is unrecognisable from the irrational player we saw during his first period at the club . Since his return he has played some glorious football and been a unifying figure in a new era at the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Champions League next season then they must do whatever it takes to keep Luiz at the club . There are n't many great centre-backs out there and those who do exist are with the biggest clubs in Europe . With a couple of strong additions to their squad , Chelsea could be serious Champions League candidates . Marcos Alonso has scored five Premier League goals this season I did n't know who was going to take Chelsea 's free-kick - David Luiz , Victor Moses or Marco Alonso . In the end it was Alonso who bent it past Artur Boruc with extraordinary accuracy . The harsh truth for Bournemouth , and the rest of the Premier League , is any one of those players could have planted the free-kick past Boruc , such is the quality and confidence that exists in the ranks of Antonio Conte 's players at the moment . The truth is I could n't leave Alonso out of my team of the week having scored a goal like that . Alonso has done @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I have no doubt he will do it again before Chelsea lift the Premier League trophy . Which they will . Philippe Coutinho has scored more Premier League goals than any other Brazilian in the competition 's history Philippe Coutinho did n't feel great on the morning of the match and arrived in the Potteries by car feeling ok before deciding to declare himself fit for the game against Stoke City . That was the beginning of the end for the Potters . From the moment Coutinho came on the pitch at the start of the second half , I knew it was a game changer . The Brazilian had already warned Lee Grant that he was on the prowl , having forced the Stoke keeper to produce a fantastic save just after he arrived on the pitch . It was at that moment you knew that whatever symptoms Coutinho had before the game had well and truly passed . However , it was his one-touch finish on the edge of the box that I thought was so impressive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ - anything that might give him an opportunity to pounce . When it came he was equal to it . All credit to Coutinho for getting to Stoke . The easy option would have been not to play and no-one would have blamed him . Instead he put himself on the line for his team-mates and his manager . I hope Jurgen Klopp remembers that in the future when Coutinho is having a bad time . Fabian Delph 's goal against Hull was his first in the Premier League in 448 days I saw Fabian Delph play against Chelsea in midweek and , considering it was his first start of the season , he looked in great shape and played like it . All credit to him . Delph has been plagued with injuries and had such little first-team game time , yet still has the presence of mind and the right attitude to keep himself in such tip top condition . He ran out of steam at Stamford Bridge but not so against Hull . For Delph @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the season and go on to have such an impact on Manchester City 's victory over Hull , is a credit to his professionalism . There will be those who will argue that professional players should keep themselves in the best shape ever - after all it 's their job . Those cynics have no idea of the mental discipline required to keep yourself at the top of your game in mind and health when you have no fixture to look forward to . At the end of the game against Hull you could see how delighted City 's backroom staff were for him . They have also played a part in the recovery . Hopefully Delph can now start to think of playing for his country again . Heaven knows we could do with him . Roberto Firmino has had a hand in five goals in his last five league outings for Liverpool What a goal by Roberto Firmino . The ball from Georginio Wijnaldum was wonderful but the finish even better . It 's one thing your @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ something entirely different having received the ball at your feet and having the technical ability to put the ball into the back of the net . Firmino finished the move so emphatically . If the referee had decided to blow the full-time whistle there and then no neutral observer would have complained - the quality of the finish was worthy of winning any match . However , watching the goal in real time does not do the execution of the finish justice . The replay clearly identifies how Firmino takes a look at the ball as it arrives over his shoulder , watches it bounce in front of him , then takes a look at where Grant is positioned before deciding to hit the ball on the volley . Grant , who is slightly off his line in case Firmino decides to take him on , almost dares his opponent to take the volley due to the degree of technical difficulty required to execute the skill . All this being played out , of course , in a couple of seconds . So imagine Grant , when the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ smashes it into the back of the net , having left the Stoke keeper clutching fresh air . That 's why the finish was so good and we all said ' wow ' . Dele Alli has been directly involved in 14 goals in 13 Premier League games for Tottenham in 2017 The moment Dele Alli bent his super shot around the well-beaten Heurelho Gomes in the Watford goal , former Spurs midfielder Jermaine Jenas said : " He 's the player of the season for me . " Jermaine , preparing for Football Focus in the BBC green room , instigated a frightful debate prior to the programme around who deserved to win the PFA Player of the Year . Dion Dublin , Dan Walker , Martin Keown and myself immediately engaged in the argument with differing opinions but generally agreed that the prize would probably go to either to Eden Hazard or N'Golo Kante . Jermaine seemed incredulous that none of us had mentioned Alli and said that he wanted " more ( flair ) from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ short in that department as far as he was concerned . A fair point and a perfectly reasonable assertion under the circumstances . It did seem odd at the time bearing in mind Alli was having a terrific game against Watford and Spurs were second in the table largely due to Alli 's contribution this season . That said , I do n't think Alli will win the PFA Player of the Year even though Jermain put together a very credible case . Against Sunderland , Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored in his 21st different match of the season for Manchester United There have been some notable performances this week , from strikers in particular , who would have , under normal circumstances , made my Team of the Week . However , this was n't a normal week . Romelu Lukaku and Son Heung-min scored twice for Everton and Tottenham respectively , but it was Zlatan Ibrahimovic who impressed me the most . Playing up front on your own is always a task but it never seems to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sporting 11 men at the time , the Swede produced a goal out of nothing . He set up Marcus Rashford 's goal and you can see how his team-mates respond to his presence . I do n't think it 's a coincidence that Luke Shaw has timed his return to the team with Ibrahimovic 's return . The lad has been put under immense pressure by United boss Jose Mourinho and , if the game against Sunderland is anything to go by , he has stood up to Mourinho 's bully-boy tactics very well . I 'm not sure Mourinho would get away with such a public condemnation of an employee in any other form of employment . Nevertheless this was a very important victory for United and keeps them in the hunt for a fourth-place finish . I would have liked to have seen the outcome of this game against Sunderland with a referee who recognises the difference between a tackle that looks dangerous and one that actually is dangerous . Sebastian Larsson 's tackle on Ander Herrera neither looked dangerous or was dangerous . So @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Craig Pawson is a total mystery to me . Eden Hazard 's 14 Premier League goals this season is his joint-best-ever return in a season in the competition If David Luiz 's presence at Chelsea is central to any future Champions League campaign , then Eden Hazard is imperative . Real Madrid will know all about Hazard 's potential but will most certainly have noted his form this season . This is without doubt his best season in the Premier League . His performance against Bournemouth was wonderful to watch . I have n't seen a player for sometime enjoy his football as much as Hazard is at the moment . He is playing with such freedom and confidence that makes me think that an audacious offer from Madrid is almost certain . There are not many players who can resist playing at the Bernabeu Stadium on a regular basis . So it is crucial that Chelsea boss Antonio Conte removes the rumours circulating the game about his possible return to Italy and starts focusing on the Champions League @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stage in Chelsea 's development . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'get out of' followed by a gerund phrase 'going to school or work', which is more about avoiding an activity rather than causing or preventing someone from doing something. There is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'get out of' followed by a gerund 'socialising', but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Worrying statistics ... almost 90 per cent of teens admit to worrying about their appearance for an hour and 34 minutes every day One in five teens even admitted they have pretended to be sick to get out of going to school or work due to their lack of confidence about their appearance . And it does n't end as you grow up with 86 per cent of adults admitting they still spend an hour and 13 minutes of each day fretting about how they look . But while teens worry most about spots , adults are most likely to be concerned about their weight . Bad hair , overall body shape and the appearance of your stomach are also common worries for adults and teens alike .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it involves the phrase 'opting out of sharing my data', which is a different construction where 'opting out of' is followed by a gerund phrase.

This piece arises out of a comment I made on Facebook that one of Lib Dem Voice 's founding editors asked me to write up as an article for LDV . I have given training on debate and hustings skills to candidates at the party conference and there are a couple of rules to help you in that I think Remainers and Liberals are continuing to paying insufficient heed to in Brexit related debates . This was brought home to me while watching recent episodes of Question Time and similar programmes . The first rule is framing . In a debate , the success of what you have to say ( measured by whether people will feel they agree , and whether they will do the thing you want them to do , e.g. vote a certain way ) is often determined by the way an answer is framed . A frame is way of thinking about things . A point of view , if you like . Words evoke frames . A classic example is " tax cuts " versus " tax relief " . They are the same thing . But " relief @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an affliction usually has a victim and a cause of the affliction ( goodies and baddies ) . Another example is " gay marriage " versus " equal marriage " both are used to mean same sex couples being able to marry but they can evoke different thoughts about the subject . To win a debate ( whether a hustings , or an election campaign as a whole ) it helps to use your frame , not your opponents ' frame . Frames are not word games . They are moral values that we inject into what we say politically . The second thing is time . In a debate you only have limited time to make your point . On a programme like Question Time it is the limited time the chair and audience are willing to give you before wanting to hear from the next person . That means make your best point your first point and do it quick . The ? 50 billion example I think pro-Europeans are playing to the wrong frame too often . The specific issue that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ programmes dealt with " will we have to pay ? 50 billion on leaving ? " Quite often they got into explaining why we might have to and why this is not unfair . Brexiteers then run down the clock with " it 's a disgrace , we 've paid enough , we just need to get out . " The problem with this , and why they get a lot more applause , it that they look strong and they 're going to try , and you look like you 're surrendering and not even going to try . The challenge frame This is what I suggest you do instead : frame it as a challenge . " Boris and that lot said we would n't have to pay a penny . They told you to vote Leave saying we would n't be worse off . Now they have the chance to prove it . " " Let 's see if they negotiate an exit deal where we do n't pay a penny let alone ? 50 billion . If they do n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ things they say . " And link it to the future -- " We will know never to trust them again . We will have to decide if we want an exit if it is so different to what they promised . " The flexibility of the challenge frame You can use this frame on just about any aspect of Brexit . I have quickly created this debate matrix . In the top line is the frame . In the columns are some examples to flesh the frame out . You can probably think of more . " They promise X would/not happen " " They lied / were wrong . You ca n't trust them . " " We deserve better " ? 350m per week for the NHS That bus . We deserve a vote on the exit deal Turkey joining the EU Listen to young people who will have to deal with the consequences for longer Immigration reducing a lot Brexit should not happen if this is what it is going to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ worse No jobs lost Less costs for business not more costs Not paying into the EU budget Conservatives and Leavers understand framing and time very well . It is one reason they won the referendum and other debates in recent years ( the AV referendum is a case in point ) . We need to stop walking into failure again and again by accepting their frames . * Antony Hook was #2 on the South East European list in 2014 , is the English Party 's representative on the Federal Executive and produces this sites EU Referendum Roundup. I admit I 'm a leave voter , but do you not think the main problem for Remain is that the vote was lost and really this is a bit like endlessly going over who said what in divorce proceeding when the papers have been served and your soon to be ex-partner is redecorating . However , I do understand it as a way of tapping into a niche vote that may help the Lib Dems recover some lost ground . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Leave , the LibDem position is far from " niche " . Even ignoring those who did n't vote ( who were more likely to have voted Remain i according to polling ) , 52-48 is a narrow margin , not an overwhelming majority . Many promises were made by Leave campaigners to encourage people to vote Leave , so I think it 's perfectly reasonable to hold the Brexiters in power to account for what they promised . That 's what happens when a party wins a general election , why should this be different ? Of course the government including its most enthusiastic Brexit ministers had no plan , so it 's now their job to make one which delivers what they promised . It 's the job of opposition politicians ( the LibDems as Labour have opted out of opposing ) to scrutinise such efforts . As a Leave voter you 're obviously confident Brexit will be good for the country so you should welcome decent scrutiny as that should keep the government on their toes . However some of your fellow Leavers are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hysterical screams of " will of the people " " against democracy " , which is rather ironic as their behaviour seeks to shut down normal democratic scrutiny ! You do not seem to fit into this category : ) And finally a question : if when push comes to shove , Brexit will NOT deliver the majority of things that were promised , do you think some people who voted Leave will change their minds and if that happens , how should that be dealt with ? I do n't really think the party has been that interested in converting people from the Leave argument . Such has been the ferocity of the Remain reaction -- mostly trying to shout down anyone who has objections to aspects of the EU or the very high current level of immigration . This is why the 52/48 split has n't moved in nearly a year -- both sides have just dug in . The party has harnessed the anger of Remainers effectively as a campaign tool , which is great , but in fiercely attracting any and all Remainers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who were Leavers : YouGov 5th April : " In hindsight , do you think Britain was right or wrong to vote to leave the European Union ? " This probably explains why we have only risen from 8% to 11% in the polls while seemingly gaining so much more in vocal support -- we have gained 5 percentage points of support from Remainers , but also in fact driven away 2 percentage points of Leavers with our rhetoric . I 'm sure people would argue that for the long-term survival of the party that is a worthwhile swap , as the 5% are vigorous and motivated campaigners , and I 'm not arguing with that ... but we should be under no illusions that we are not acting as a party of compromise and reconciliation right now ; nor does our current strategy make that likely ... Glenn , " do you not think the main problem for Remain is that the vote was lost and really this is a bit like endlessly going over who said what in divorce proceeding when the papers have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Quite the opposite , I think not enough reflection is done on why arguments were lost and too much tine since has been spent in an echo chamber claiming that the opinions have changed and if there were just a second ref. then it would go the other way . In truth I believe a majority people could still be persuaded the Remain position is best , but that will take time ( part of which is putting the govt under pressure to deliver the promises its members made ) . The way it is done needs to be done well ( which appears to be what this is about ) , but it has to be done . This article is good in terms of some positive steps in the tactical approaches in a debate ( which are important ) however they over look the negative approaches that have to be stopped and does n't cover the longer term strategic actions that are needed . As for whether Remain should now " shut up " in case they look bitter the answer is obviously not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that the ministers responsible for the negotiations gave a very rosy impression to the public during the referendum campaign now they need to be deliver . If a builder quotes you to build a beautiful large new extension to your house from local stone and then then starts constructing some tiny ramshackle lean-to out of rotting wood , I suggestion you would be saying " oi , that was n't what you promised " and doing so loudly and regularly until they started to deliver what was promised . Seconding Marks point above , there needs to be a serious focus on persuading people of Liberal ideas , the current trend looks a lot like picking something we believe and chasing around after a new much of potential supporters who are really passionate about that one issue . Better to bring others over to your position is much better than trying to pick up one group and drop another . It is the " common ground " strategy ( diff from the centre ground strategy ) that we appear to be really averse to using , though @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ did show some people in the party get what it involves . " Surely the sensible strategy for a Small Party is to get the people who are closest to us to vote for us ? Once we have exhausted the 48% then we can get to work on the 52% . " Well that logic applies for a single issue party , I hope most LibDems do n't see them selves as simply " the EU party " now . Liberal values are more than just membership of a Supranational body . My belief in the balance of benefits of membership are based upon my belief remaining in is the best way to achieve liberal goals not just a blind love for an institution . There will be many people holding strong liberal views who voted leave , some will want a soft Brexit some may have a harder line on the EU but based upon a different assessment of the risks and rewards to the one I make . Neither of these groups should be considered ' far from us ' and if they are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The point of a common ground strategy is that you recognise each party has particular values that it prioritises and that almost everyone values those values , our job is to explain to people why our values are the ones that need to be prioritised now and why we are able to deliver . This is a great opotunity now as other parties appear to be abandoning their previous attempts to claim the " liberal " label , leaving us to seize it and explain why it should be a priority for people right now . Unfortunately an outright lie is often the easiest and most effective strategy for framing an argument . Brexiters adored being challenged on the " ? 350m a week -- let 's fund our NHS instead " , because it distracted from probing the issues . All they had to do , and in interview after interview did do , was to refuse to admit that the figure was false or misleading and little else was discussed , but the Brexiters had achieved the publicity that they wanted . As a short term @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in this case the Brexiters are none too bothered ( it does not seem to bother Glenn for example ) . On the other hand Labour used this type of tactic during the coalition ( ' most right wing government ever ' type of stuff ) and now find they merely succeeded in convincing their own supporters and are now encumbered with Corbyn . So you are right : " When do we get the sorely needed , extra money promised for the NHS ? " is an effective line , which can be followed with the more general " You promise money , but then you do n't deliver " . If I was going to fight Brexit I would steer clear of the self congratulatory stuff about demographics and try to make being pro EU look ordinary . Maybe , concentrate on families , kids and creating an emotional feel-good swell . Coz , at the moment your problem is that being pro-EU has been co-opted by journalists presenting it like missionary work , where really you have tame the heathens through fear and condemnation of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people by making them feel positive , not by telling them off . The challenge frame is better than simply agreeing to the ? 50 billion without challenge but I would say I think we need to try to pay as little as possible as an exit fee , but there is going to have to be a compromise . We need to get tougher in the negotiations and be prepared to walk away from a very bad deal . Otherwise we may as well not bother negotiating and just tell the EU to send us the terms , which is electoral suicide . @Cllr Mark Wright " I do n't really think the party has been that interested in converting people from the Leave argument . " For me that has been the biggest disappointment of the reaction to the result of the EU referendum by Lib Dems in particular and by " Remainers " in general . The Remain campaign was dismal , all about opposing Brexit but offering little reason to vote for the EU . But nothing has been learnt from the outcome @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ strategy . @Martin " All they had to do , and in interview after interview did do , was to refuse to admit that the figure was false or misleading and little else was discussed , but the Brexiters had achieved the publicity that they wanted . " Actually , in many interviews , senior Brexiters were challenged on the misleading headline figure and did attempt to explain that this was a " gross " figure and that the " nett " figure was more like ? 250 million per week , but the Remain campaign seemed determined ( and still does ) to bang on about the ? 350 million lie without explaining why ? 250 million was/is a good investment . Another example of how those of us voting to remain in the EU were let down by a dismal and negative campaign . Alistair , But most of the 48% of Remain voters have moved on and have accepted leaving the EU . The Lib Dems are still stuck at around 10% to 12% and I 'm Lib Dem voter . So there are some @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 'm making is that the anti Brexit stance is not a magic electoral bullet with a built in number of votes . Amongst that 48 percent are Labour voters , Conservative voters , Greens and the A political . Plus Scottish , Welsh and Irish nationalists . Very few amongst this diverse group will only vote on the issue of the EU . Glenn -- Moved on ? Like students immediately moved on when Clegg went back on his Student loans pledge ? Brexit is Student Loans multiplied by a factor of a billion . It may be a slow burn but there are millions upon millions adversely affected by Brexit , support for the Lib Dems is low because Clegg torched the credibility of the Lib Dems . There are anti immigrant stories in the press practically every day . Brexit has barely even started yet . Alistair Elections are not fought on single issues . I certainly would not vote for UKIP and I voted leave . To be honest , to a lot of people membership of the EU is not the a big seething @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would just have had a bit of a moan , thought maybe next time and then got on with other things . Elsewhere Mark Pack has stressed the importance of our building a bigger core vote . We are not be a single issue party but neither is the SNP . However what is unique about the SNP is their commitment to independence and this represents their core vote , while the unionist vote is divided among two and a half other parties . Our opposition to Brexit now represents our USP in England and Wales , and this is where our core vote will lie in the short to medium term . Like the SNP in Scotland , for other policy reasons we may also attract the support of voters who do not favour our USP . However we should not dilute our USP , even if doing so involves losing the support whose belief in liberalism is so shallow that they are prepared instead to turn to the Tory or Labour parties . Brexit is not a single issue in any normal sense . It is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it also concerns our identity as a nation which may literally fragment within a generation . It is far far more important than how many MPs and Councillors the Lib Dems can gain . We may have 50 years of stagnation . As a parent Britain is becoming a place I no longer wish to raise my children -- a basket case of vulture capitalists and asset strippers and little Englanders . All we have heard for the last year is how London is a special case , the City is a special case , the car Industry is a special case . What isnt a special case ? Westminster is completely detached from the rest of the country . They do nt know how to manage this change . They have made many promises they cant keep . There is no way that thinking people will just move on . Some will move away . The only question is how rapid the decline will be before we get politicians that can lead and chart a sensible course .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It describes a situation where a builder does not deliver what was promised, but it does not involve a verb in the V1 slot that fits the categories described (e.g., deception, force, fear, etc.), nor does it involve a causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

We deserve a vote on the exit deal Turkey joining the EU Listen to young people who will have to deal with the consequences for longer Immigration reducing a lot Brexit should not happen if this is what it is going to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ worse No jobs lost Less costs for business not more costs Not paying into the EU budget Conservatives and Leavers understand framing and time very well . It is one reason they won the referendum and other debates in recent years ( the AV referendum is a case in point ) . We need to stop walking into failure again and again by accepting their frames . * Antony Hook was #2 on the South East European list in 2014 , is the English Party 's representative on the Federal Executive and produces this sites EU Referendum Roundup. I admit I 'm a leave voter , but do you not think the main problem for Remain is that the vote was lost and really this is a bit like endlessly going over who said what in divorce proceeding when the papers have been served and your soon to be ex-partner is redecorating . However , I do understand it as a way of tapping into a niche vote that may help the Lib Dems recover some lost ground . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Leave , the LibDem position is far from " niche " . Even ignoring those who did n't vote ( who were more likely to have voted Remain i according to polling ) , 52-48 is a narrow margin , not an overwhelming majority . Many promises were made by Leave campaigners to encourage people to vote Leave , so I think it 's perfectly reasonable to hold the Brexiters in power to account for what they promised . That 's what happens when a party wins a general election , why should this be different ? Of course the government including its most enthusiastic Brexit ministers had no plan , so it 's now their job to make one which delivers what they promised . It 's the job of opposition politicians ( the LibDems as Labour have opted out of opposing ) to scrutinise such efforts . As a Leave voter you 're obviously confident Brexit will be good for the country so you should welcome decent scrutiny as that should keep the government on their toes . However some of your fellow Leavers are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hysterical screams of " will of the people " " against democracy " , which is rather ironic as their behaviour seeks to shut down normal democratic scrutiny ! You do not seem to fit into this category : ) And finally a question : if when push comes to shove , Brexit will NOT deliver the majority of things that were promised , do you think some people who voted Leave will change their minds and if that happens , how should that be dealt with ? I do n't really think the party has been that interested in converting people from the Leave argument . Such has been the ferocity of the Remain reaction -- mostly trying to shout down anyone who has objections to aspects of the EU or the very high current level of immigration . This is why the 52/48 split has n't moved in nearly a year -- both sides have just dug in . The party has harnessed the anger of Remainers effectively as a campaign tool , which is great , but in fiercely attracting any and all Remainers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who were Leavers : YouGov 5th April : " In hindsight , do you think Britain was right or wrong to vote to leave the European Union ? " This probably explains why we have only risen from 8% to 11% in the polls while seemingly gaining so much more in vocal support -- we have gained 5 percentage points of support from Remainers , but also in fact driven away 2 percentage points of Leavers with our rhetoric . I 'm sure people would argue that for the long-term survival of the party that is a worthwhile swap , as the 5% are vigorous and motivated campaigners , and I 'm not arguing with that ... but we should be under no illusions that we are not acting as a party of compromise and reconciliation right now ; nor does our current strategy make that likely ... Glenn , " do you not think the main problem for Remain is that the vote was lost and really this is a bit like endlessly going over who said what in divorce proceeding when the papers have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Quite the opposite , I think not enough reflection is done on why arguments were lost and too much tine since has been spent in an echo chamber claiming that the opinions have changed and if there were just a second ref. then it would go the other way . In truth I believe a majority people could still be persuaded the Remain position is best , but that will take time ( part of which is putting the govt under pressure to deliver the promises its members made ) . The way it is done needs to be done well ( which appears to be what this is about ) , but it has to be done . This article is good in terms of some positive steps in the tactical approaches in a debate ( which are important ) however they over look the negative approaches that have to be stopped and does n't cover the longer term strategic actions that are needed . As for whether Remain should now " shut up " in case they look bitter the answer is obviously not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that the ministers responsible for the negotiations gave a very rosy impression to the public during the referendum campaign now they need to be deliver . If a builder quotes you to build a beautiful large new extension to your house from local stone and then then starts constructing some tiny ramshackle lean-to out of rotting wood , I suggestion you would be saying " oi , that was n't what you promised " and doing so loudly and regularly until they started to deliver what was promised . Seconding Marks point above , there needs to be a serious focus on persuading people of Liberal ideas , the current trend looks a lot like picking something we believe and chasing around after a new much of potential supporters who are really passionate about that one issue . Better to bring others over to your position is much better than trying to pick up one group and drop another . It is the " common ground " strategy ( diff from the centre ground strategy ) that we appear to be really averse to using , though @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ did show some people in the party get what it involves . " Surely the sensible strategy for a Small Party is to get the people who are closest to us to vote for us ? Once we have exhausted the 48% then we can get to work on the 52% . " Well that logic applies for a single issue party , I hope most LibDems do n't see them selves as simply " the EU party " now . Liberal values are more than just membership of a Supranational body . My belief in the balance of benefits of membership are based upon my belief remaining in is the best way to achieve liberal goals not just a blind love for an institution . There will be many people holding strong liberal views who voted leave , some will want a soft Brexit some may have a harder line on the EU but based upon a different assessment of the risks and rewards to the one I make . Neither of these groups should be considered ' far from us ' and if they are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The point of a common ground strategy is that you recognise each party has particular values that it prioritises and that almost everyone values those values , our job is to explain to people why our values are the ones that need to be prioritised now and why we are able to deliver . This is a great opotunity now as other parties appear to be abandoning their previous attempts to claim the " liberal " label , leaving us to seize it and explain why it should be a priority for people right now . Unfortunately an outright lie is often the easiest and most effective strategy for framing an argument . Brexiters adored being challenged on the " ? 350m a week -- let 's fund our NHS instead " , because it distracted from probing the issues . All they had to do , and in interview after interview did do , was to refuse to admit that the figure was false or misleading and little else was discussed , but the Brexiters had achieved the publicity that they wanted . As a short term @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in this case the Brexiters are none too bothered ( it does not seem to bother Glenn for example ) . On the other hand Labour used this type of tactic during the coalition ( ' most right wing government ever ' type of stuff ) and now find they merely succeeded in convincing their own supporters and are now encumbered with Corbyn . So you are right : " When do we get the sorely needed , extra money promised for the NHS ? " is an effective line , which can be followed with the more general " You promise money , but then you do n't deliver " . If I was going to fight Brexit I would steer clear of the self congratulatory stuff about demographics and try to make being pro EU look ordinary . Maybe , concentrate on families , kids and creating an emotional feel-good swell . Coz , at the moment your problem is that being pro-EU has been co-opted by journalists presenting it like missionary work , where really you have tame the heathens through fear and condemnation of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people by making them feel positive , not by telling them off . The challenge frame is better than simply agreeing to the ? 50 billion without challenge but I would say I think we need to try to pay as little as possible as an exit fee , but there is going to have to be a compromise . We need to get tougher in the negotiations and be prepared to walk away from a very bad deal . Otherwise we may as well not bother negotiating and just tell the EU to send us the terms , which is electoral suicide . @Cllr Mark Wright " I do n't really think the party has been that interested in converting people from the Leave argument . " For me that has been the biggest disappointment of the reaction to the result of the EU referendum by Lib Dems in particular and by " Remainers " in general . The Remain campaign was dismal , all about opposing Brexit but offering little reason to vote for the EU . But nothing has been learnt from the outcome @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ strategy . @Martin " All they had to do , and in interview after interview did do , was to refuse to admit that the figure was false or misleading and little else was discussed , but the Brexiters had achieved the publicity that they wanted . " Actually , in many interviews , senior Brexiters were challenged on the misleading headline figure and did attempt to explain that this was a " gross " figure and that the " nett " figure was more like ? 250 million per week , but the Remain campaign seemed determined ( and still does ) to bang on about the ? 350 million lie without explaining why ? 250 million was/is a good investment . Another example of how those of us voting to remain in the EU were let down by a dismal and negative campaign . Alistair , But most of the 48% of Remain voters have moved on and have accepted leaving the EU . The Lib Dems are still stuck at around 10% to 12% and I 'm Lib Dem voter . So there are some @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 'm making is that the anti Brexit stance is not a magic electoral bullet with a built in number of votes . Amongst that 48 percent are Labour voters , Conservative voters , Greens and the A political . Plus Scottish , Welsh and Irish nationalists . Very few amongst this diverse group will only vote on the issue of the EU . Glenn -- Moved on ? Like students immediately moved on when Clegg went back on his Student loans pledge ? Brexit is Student Loans multiplied by a factor of a billion . It may be a slow burn but there are millions upon millions adversely affected by Brexit , support for the Lib Dems is low because Clegg torched the credibility of the Lib Dems . There are anti immigrant stories in the press practically every day . Brexit has barely even started yet . Alistair Elections are not fought on single issues . I certainly would not vote for UKIP and I voted leave . To be honest , to a lot of people membership of the EU is not the a big seething @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would just have had a bit of a moan , thought maybe next time and then got on with other things . Elsewhere Mark Pack has stressed the importance of our building a bigger core vote . We are not be a single issue party but neither is the SNP . However what is unique about the SNP is their commitment to independence and this represents their core vote , while the unionist vote is divided among two and a half other parties . Our opposition to Brexit now represents our USP in England and Wales , and this is where our core vote will lie in the short to medium term . Like the SNP in Scotland , for other policy reasons we may also attract the support of voters who do not favour our USP . However we should not dilute our USP , even if doing so involves losing the support whose belief in liberalism is so shallow that they are prepared instead to turn to the Tory or Labour parties . Brexit is not a single issue in any normal sense . It is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it also concerns our identity as a nation which may literally fragment within a generation . It is far far more important than how many MPs and Councillors the Lib Dems can gain . We may have 50 years of stagnation . As a parent Britain is becoming a place I no longer wish to raise my children -- a basket case of vulture capitalists and asset strippers and little Englanders . All we have heard for the last year is how London is a special case , the City is a special case , the car Industry is a special case . What isnt a special case ? Westminster is completely detached from the rest of the country . They do nt know how to manage this change . They have made many promises they cant keep . There is no way that thinking people will just move on . Some will move away . The only question is how rapid the decline will be before we get politicians that can lead and chart a sensible course .

THAT Noel Sands once hit a goal and three points for Down in an All-Ireland senior hurling semi-final against Cork seems barely credible these days . But it happened all the same . The year was 1992 and Down had won their first Ulster Senior Hurling Championship title in more than half-a-century , hammering Antrim in Casement Park , earning them an automatic spot in the All-Ireland semi-finals . They lost to the Rebels , but they were far from humiliated . Sands finished three points behind Kilkenny 's DJ Carey in the Championship top scorers ' chart that year and was nominated for an Allstar . In later years , he won two more Ulster titles , played in two All-Ireland quarter-finals and another semi-final , this time against Offaly , and was nominated twice more for an Allstar . This is the way things used to be for the cream of Ulster 's hurling crop . They never quite got to sit at the head of the table , but they were at the top table all the same . This is maybe why Sands is so frustrated with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Ulster hurling is in serious decline and , when you hear people discussing it and not doing anything about it , it really bugs me , " the Portaferry clubman says . Sands was speaking ahead of this weekend 's Ulster SHC final between Antrim and Armagh , when the prospect of the northern champions entering the All-Ireland series will be but a wistful memory . Instead , both finalists will have at least one eye on their upcoming games in the Christy Ring and Nicky Rackard cups respectively . " There is no easy solution to the Ulster Championship , " he adds . " The prestige has gone out of it . Everybody wants to win an Ulster Championship but , at the end of the day , the value of it has been belittled by Croke Park . " It used to be , if you won it , you 'd get to the quarter-final stage of the Liam MacCarthy , but they must 've looked at it and thought , ' these teams are never going to win a Liam @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it to improve it . " This sense of stasis has led to chaos in Ulster in recent years , with confusion over games and their scheduling , and teams opting out of competing . Even though the Ulster Council has attempted to find a solution to fixture build-up and confusion this year , playing the Championship over a fortnight in April , there has been controversy over the playing of the final six days before the commencement of the lower-grade national tournaments . " For the last five or six years , teams have been pulling out of the Ulster Championship because the prestige of getting to a Liam MacCarthy Cup quarter-final has gone , " Sands notes . " You 're trying to put your finger on it and say ' what has happened here ? ' . ' Why has Ulster hurling gone downhill so much over the last few years ? ' . You can blame the players to a certain degree but , at the same time , what have the Ulster Council or anybody else done about improving the standards @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Championship and they just do it to save face . They look at it and they say , ' we better do something about this ' , but this had been coming down the line for the last three or four years . " To be honest , I was hoping somebody would draw in the semi-finals just to see what would happen . I mean when were they going to play the replay ? " As well as playing hurling at the highest level , Sands has been coaching Portaferry 's stick men for the guts of 30 years , so he 's not short on insight into what motivates players to go the extra mile . " They need to give the lesser teams in Ulster or Leinster or wherever a chance to showcase their hurling and to demonstrate that they 're not that bad , " he argues . " Every team in the country , no matter who you are , whether you 're Antrim , Louth , Kilkenny or Galway , they all slog their guts out over a period of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ We need to do something , we need our people in there saying something . " If further evidence was required of the continuing difficulties Ulster hurling finds itself in , the decision by Donegal to pull out of their Ulster Championship relegation play-off with fellow beaten semi-finalists Down will suffice for this week alone . However , Sands is n't putting the boot into T ? r Chonaill over their decision , which was perhaps taken with their April 22 Nicky Rackard opener against Armagh in mind . In his view , if there is to be a meaningful improvement in the fortunes of Ulster hurling and a greater buy-in to the Championship across the province , it has to come from a bottom up approach . " I can understand teams saying ' why should we go and play in the Ulster Championship and then have a Christy Ring or other competition the following week ? ' . The supposedly serious people have n't been serious enough about it . I do n't know why people bother going to meetings anymore . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they think . Ask the people on the ground the serious question : Is this Ulster Championship viable or is it not ? Ask the Ulster hurling people is it viable . " You go and ask people to play the Liam MacCarthy over six weeks and there 'd be a serious outcry . " |

You can see highlights of Manchester United v Chelsea on Match of the Day 2 at 22:30 GMT on Sunday on BBC One and the BBC Sport website . There is pride , as well as points , at stake at Old Trafford on Sunday because Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho will not take it well if Antonio Conte beats him in his own backyard .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('rule United out of winning all of those games'). It involves a prevention interpretation, where the subject is causing the object ('United') to be prevented from 'winning all of those games'.

They are currently fifth but were sixth for 104 consecutive days until 18 March The buck has to stop with Mourinho at some point - he will know himself that he has to do better , and he has a lot of work to do . This is his first season at United and , in his defence , you could argue this is not his team yet . But that argument does not really work when you think about how quickly Conte has made a difference at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ United have already invested heavily in their team in the past three years - Mourinho has spent about ? 150m , and Van Gaal about another ? 250m in his time in charge , which is an astonishing amount to lay out and still be outside the top four . To change that , it looks like they will have to do the same again this summer , but how much more money will they throw at it , and where does the spending stop ? The United fans have been exceptionally patient with Mourinho so far but I am not sure if that will last going into next season if they miss out on the Champions League again . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks an NP object and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'out of' in a different context, describing a lack of thrill from performing, which does not align with the construction's properties.

It 's fair to say that no other musician has been a bigger influence to so many than Bob Dylan . For more than five decades his creaky , heartbreaking voice together with his poetic lyrics , have given us some of the most unforgettable songs ever written . Since he burst on to the music scene in the 60s , Dylan was always known for being mysterious , elusive and fascinating -- just like his music . Over the course of his career , Dylan has given us more than 30 albums -- and still counting with the release of ' Triplicate ' , last month . Like his previous two studio albums , it features covers of classic American songs . " The songs are spread over three CDs because that 's the way I wanted it , " he said , explaining the album 's three-disc concept . " Each record is a sequel to the other and they belong together . The songs are too long for a regular LP and I wanted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a great source of inspiration that has led me to one of my most satisfying periods in the studio .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'out of' as a complex preposition followed by a gerund phrase 'performing anymore', which does not align with the construction's requirements.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'drawn out of jam-making retirement' does not involve a causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes Gru being brought out of retirement, which is a different construction.

Coming across like Walter Matthau restraining his comedy chops to play Gordon Brown , Rowan Atkinson returns as the French detective .

Teachers have backed plans for a possible boycott of primary school tests in England next year . The National Union of Teachers says the tests for seven and 11-year-olds are damaging to children and education . One delegate likened Sats to the " monster stalking our schools " . Another said they needed to be " decapitated " . The government is consulting on the future of primary assessment , and may scrap the tests for seven-year-olds and introduce a baseline test in reception . But , if agreed , this would not be put in place before 2020 . On Sunday , teachers at the NUT conference backed a motion for an indicative ballot on a Sats boycott , and are expected to debate the matter further on Monday and back plans for a full ballot . Siobhan Collingwood , a teacher from Lancaster , told the union 's conference in Cardiff that Sats were " the monster that is stalking our schools " . She was one of a dozen speakers who spoke passionately against the tests and in favour of ending them . Media playback is unsupported @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from Oldham , said the current model for testing children was wrong Last year , when 47% of 11-year-olds failed a new set of tougher tests , Ms Collingwood said , she had seen children cry during the tests . She had gone around " rubbing pupils ' backs " , she told delegates . Now instead of carrying on with the tests , the union needed " to bring down the whole stinking edifice " of the assessment system , she added . Image copyrightGetty Images Lambeth delegate Jessica Edwards said the monster that was Sats needed to be " decapitated " . " Sats in our schools is damaging to children and their education , damaging to the self-esteem and mental health and all the things that they need to succeed as they go through their education . " We all know that last year 's tests were the worst they ever had . " They saw huge numbers of our children not ' failing ' as they were labelled but being failed by the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In 2016 , the first set of Sats on the new national curriculum were taken by pupils in England 's school . The pass rate fell from 80% in 2015 to 53% for the nation 's 11-year-olds . Chris Ayton , a delegate from Manchester , was given a standing ovation after exclaiming that teachers should be " liberating " children 's minds , not preparing them to answer tests on things they did not understand . Kevin Courtney , NUT general secretary , said teachers had been saying the system was so broken that they wanted to stop it . " Primary education should be a time in children 's lives when they develop a love of learning , not a fear and dread of failure . " Drilling within a narrow set of disciplines and expectations is taking the joy out of learning and much of it is of questionable educational value . " Children are being put under unnecessary stress and teachers ' workload is heavily impacted upon . " The Department for Education says tests should not be stressful @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It maintains that parents have a right to expect testing in schools to show whether their children are leaving primary school with the right skills in maths and literacy . A spokeswoman said : " We want a long-term , stable and proportionate system for primary assessment that measures the progress that children make throughout their time at primary school fairly and accurately , one that recognises teachers ' professionalism in assessing their pupils and which does not impose a disproportionate burden . " We have worked with the teaching profession on how best to establish this and we are currently consulting on a number of proposals . " |

He has walked the Earth , recording his traces and turning them into mysterious works of land art . Now 71 , with a new show in Norfolk , art 's great hiker talks about cloud-chasing in France , sculpting on Kilimanjaro -- and the paths that lie ahead Long ... still able to hoof a tent 30 miles and camp wild . Photograph : Si Barber for the Guardian He has walked the Earth , recording his traces and turning them into mysterious works of land art . Now 71 , with a new show in Norfolk , art 's great hiker talks about cloud-chasing in France , sculpting on Kilimanjaro -- and the paths that lie ahead Sixteen enormous tree stumps , their roots turned towards the sky , stand in a circle in a country park . The mist and deer gather around . This magical-looking sculpture is placed where @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Robert Walpole , Britain 's first prime minister , moved the vista-spoiling villagers further from his lavish new Palladian mansion . Houghton Hall is a venerable stately home these days , but White Deer Circle , as this work is called , is new -- created by Richard Long for an exhibition that , unusually for this visionary land artist , is being held outdoors . His stump circle is an uncanny echo of a Seahenge , an ancient wooden circle discovered on a beach 12 miles away . Amazingly , Long , who this year marks 50 years of showing his walking-inspired work , has never heard of the bronze age relic . Perhaps Long is listening to the landscape more closely than most , though , for he is unsurprised by such serendipity . " All these coincidences are part of the natural way of things , are n't they ? " says the artist , whose minimal , modernist landscape works first disrupted pop art in 1967 , when he was still a student at St Martin 's in London . He took a train @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up and down it , then took a photograph of his traces and exhibited it under the title A Line Made by Walking . " When I made my straight line , I did n't know about the other straight lines -- the famous Nazca Lines in Peru , or Alfred Watkins , who wrote The Old Straight Track . " It was Watkins who coined the term ley lines . " We as humans come to the same visual coincidences through different cultures and eras and histories . That 's all interesting . " We meet in a grand room at Houghton Hall , where Long is putting the finishing touches to his show , Earth Sky . Despite trekking to the four corners of the globe , recording his journeys and the traces he leaves behind , he 's found the time to put on 70 exhibitions this century alone . Does he do more than he should ? " Probably . " What 's driving him ? " I would like to do fewer shows but more work . I 'd like to do @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I get a bit frustrated if too much of my time is taken up with admin . But I 'm not complaining . I 've had a very lucky life . In some ways , I 've had a very poetic life -- in charge of my own destiny , doing what I want , and being paid for it , and people appreciating it . " Long is feted for his heroic treks as well as the ideas that spring from them . Tall and lean , he 's now 71 and keeps fit by cycling . He can still walk 30 miles in a day , tent on back , camping wild . " Often the ideas come after I 've started a walk , " he says . " I once set out to walk across France from the mouth of the Loire to the Swiss border . It started out completely cloudless and , day after day , was cloudless -- and then I thought it was a much better idea to finish the walk when I saw the first cloud . So sometimes circumstances @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to that kind of serendipity and chance . That 's at the heart of my work really . " As a young artist , Long was determined to make his mark . When he sold his first show , he spent the ? 250 raised on climbing Kilimanjaro , on which he erected a kind of prayer flag . He wrote to the Guardian , but never heard back . " I was very proud of the fact I had probably made the highest sculpture in the world . " Was that a young man seeking a challenge ? " It was a young man trying to make a work of art that had n't been done before . " Since then , his work -- from photographing the outline made by his sleeping body in the rain to more enduring circles or lines in stone -- has shunned the monumental , though it is not completely ephemeral either .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves an intransitive verb 'comes' with no NP object and the second predicate 'wanting to make art in new ways' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

He has walked the Earth , recording his traces and turning them into mysterious works of land art . Now 71 , with a new show in Norfolk , art 's great hiker talks about cloud-chasing in France , sculpting on Kilimanjaro -- and the paths that lie ahead Long ... still able to hoof a tent 30 miles and camp wild . Photograph : Si Barber for the Guardian He has walked the Earth , recording his traces and turning them into mysterious works of land art . Now 71 , with a new show in Norfolk , art 's great hiker talks about cloud-chasing in France , sculpting on Kilimanjaro -- and the paths that lie ahead Sixteen enormous tree stumps , their roots turned towards the sky , stand in a circle in a country park . The mist and deer gather around . This magical-looking sculpture is placed where @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Robert Walpole , Britain 's first prime minister , moved the vista-spoiling villagers further from his lavish new Palladian mansion . Houghton Hall is a venerable stately home these days , but White Deer Circle , as this work is called , is new -- created by Richard Long for an exhibition that , unusually for this visionary land artist , is being held outdoors . His stump circle is an uncanny echo of a Seahenge , an ancient wooden circle discovered on a beach 12 miles away . Amazingly , Long , who this year marks 50 years of showing his walking-inspired work , has never heard of the bronze age relic . Perhaps Long is listening to the landscape more closely than most , though , for he is unsurprised by such serendipity . " All these coincidences are part of the natural way of things , are n't they ? " says the artist , whose minimal , modernist landscape works first disrupted pop art in 1967 , when he was still a student at St Martin 's in London . He took a train @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up and down it , then took a photograph of his traces and exhibited it under the title A Line Made by Walking . " When I made my straight line , I did n't know about the other straight lines -- the famous Nazca Lines in Peru , or Alfred Watkins , who wrote The Old Straight Track . " It was Watkins who coined the term ley lines . " We as humans come to the same visual coincidences through different cultures and eras and histories . That 's all interesting . " We meet in a grand room at Houghton Hall , where Long is putting the finishing touches to his show , Earth Sky . Despite trekking to the four corners of the globe , recording his journeys and the traces he leaves behind , he 's found the time to put on 70 exhibitions this century alone . Does he do more than he should ? " Probably . " What 's driving him ? " I would like to do fewer shows but more work . I 'd like to do @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I get a bit frustrated if too much of my time is taken up with admin . But I 'm not complaining . I 've had a very lucky life . In some ways , I 've had a very poetic life -- in charge of my own destiny , doing what I want , and being paid for it , and people appreciating it . " Long is feted for his heroic treks as well as the ideas that spring from them . Tall and lean , he 's now 71 and keeps fit by cycling . He can still walk 30 miles in a day , tent on back , camping wild . " Often the ideas come after I 've started a walk , " he says . " I once set out to walk across France from the mouth of the Loire to the Swiss border . It started out completely cloudless and , day after day , was cloudless -- and then I thought it was a much better idea to finish the walk when I saw the first cloud . So sometimes circumstances @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to that kind of serendipity and chance . That 's at the heart of my work really . " As a young artist , Long was determined to make his mark . When he sold his first show , he spent the ? 250 raised on climbing Kilimanjaro , on which he erected a kind of prayer flag . He wrote to the Guardian , but never heard back . " I was very proud of the fact I had probably made the highest sculpture in the world . " Was that a young man seeking a challenge ? " It was a young man trying to make a work of art that had n't been done before . " Since then , his work -- from photographing the outline made by his sleeping body in the rain to more enduring circles or lines in stone -- has shunned the monumental , though it is not completely ephemeral either . " I 'm not interested in making monuments , but the other point of view is to leave absolutely no mark -- take only photographs and leave only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ positions -- like moving stones around , making works which disappear , or making water marks -- many ways of being artists in a landscape .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'get out of' in a different context where 'modelling' is the activity being left, not a VP2[-ing] predicate with a causee. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject (Maxine Peake) + V1 (ruled) + NP object (herself) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (playing the next Doctor Who). It also involves a reflexive NP object (herself) coreferential with the subject, which is one of the atypical types allowed in the construction. The interpretation is a prevention interpretation, as Maxine Peake is preventing herself from playing the next Doctor Who.

ACTRESS , Maxine Peake , has ruled herself out of playing the next Doctor Who -- and attributed rumours of her stint in the Tardis to The Bolton News ! The former Westhoughton High School and Canon Slade pupil said she 'd become aware of stories that she 'd be the next Time Lord after chatting with her dad -- who 'd obviously been reading this publication . Speaking to the Radio Times at the BFI and Radio Times Festival , she said : " My dad texted me one day and said ' oh , why did n't you tell me you were going to be the new Doctor Who ? ' And I said ' it 's not because it slipped my mind ; it 's because I 'm not ' . " The Bolton Evening News said I was ' touted ' for the role .

Maxine polled 73 per cent of the vote , beating runner-up , Ben Whishaw on 12 per cent and Richard Ayoade , Olivia Colman and Rory Kinnear , who all took five per cent of the vote .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves the phrase 'make something out of nothing', which does not include a VP[-ing] predicate and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

John Constable was , as we say these days , conflicted about Brighton . On the one hand , as he wrote in a letter , he was revolted by this marine Piccadilly , populated with : ' ladies dressed & undressed -- gentlemen in morning gowns and slippers on , or without them altogether about knee deep in the breakers -- footmen -- children -- nursery maids , dogs , boys , fishermen ' , all mixed together ' in endless and indecent confusion ' . On the other , as a brilliantly conceived little exhibition at the Brighton Museum & Art Gallery makes clear , the town was one of a small number of locations that were crucial to his art . He went there , however , not because of the warm friendships that took him to Salisbury or the childhood memories and associations that made the landscape around East Bergholt -- for him -- charged with emotion , but because of his wife Maria 's weak chest . The sea air of Brighton was considered better for invalids than smoggy Regency London , choked with coal smoke . So Constable @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ children -- was obliged to leave his studio on Charlotte Street for extended periods in 1824 -- 25 and 1827 , and carry on working by the seaside as best he could . Storm clouds often mass in the skies of the pictures he did there . Doubtless , this being the English coast , the weather really was often wet . But those seaside stays must also have been overshadowed by Maria 's tuberculosis , from which she died in 1828 . The Brighton pictures have not been much considered as a group . Until , that is , 2010 when Peter Harrap , a painter and curator of the exhibition , found himself living in the very house which the Constables rented in the summer of 1824 , and working -- very probably -- in the attic room that Constable used as a temporary studio . Fired by this discovery , he set about discovering more about his predecessor 's sojourns on the South Coast . Constable and Brighton is the result . Some of its conclusions are surprising . It seems likely for instance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' ( c. 1824 ) was not painted in Hampstead , as previously thought , but based on a sturdy bole seen in a Sussex park . It is wonderfully specific -- a botanical portrait -- by a man who loved trees deeply . But vegetation was scarcely a novel subject for Constable . The new element he tackled in Brighton was obvious but profound : the sea . As the art historian Ian Warrell points out in the excellent accompanying book , this was a foray onto the artistic territory of his great contemporary , Turner . And as it happened , JMWT was also in Brighton in 1824 . The two men were acutely aware of each other 's specialities . ' What does he know of boats ? ' Turner once cattily inquired . But actually , Constable 's fishing boats drawn up on the shore are superbly solid , woody and brine-soaked . Even better , though , are his sparkling white spray , churning breakers , dry , granular beaches and alternately lowering and sunny skies . In these pictures Constable frequently @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bring off . Howard Hodgkin described it as what happens when ' a brush full of pigment is put down and turns into something ' . For example , the oil sketch ' Rainstorm over the sea ' ( c. 1824 -- 28 ) contains in the sky half a dozen vertical strokes -- blatantly just paint , the marks of individual bristles easily visible -- which somehow manage simultaneously to be dark rainspouts over the water . In the same way , the creamy foam on the waves in the large ' Chain Pier , Brighton ' ( 1826 -- 27 ) , a subject Turner also depicted , is at once a scatter of paint flecks you might find in a Jackson Pollock and -- just as much -- brilliant light on tumbling water . Perhaps that kind of metamorphosis was why the young Delacroix , on seeing a small Constable , described it as ' incroyable ' . Such alchemy was the goal of many later painters . It 's why Constable still looks modern -- and one reason why he was , as the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ influence on later 19th-century French art , though sadly less so in England where he still tends to be misunderstood as a master of cosy southern British topography ( summed up by ' The Hay Wain ' as a motif on beer mats ) . That was n't what Constable was up to at all . ' The business of a painter , ' he wrote on 24 August 1824 , was ' to make something out of nothing , in attempting which he must almost of necessity become poetical . ' He did that again and again : transforming a cloud , a leaf , a stretch of shingle or gurgling surf into visual poetry . That 's why I do n't entirely agree with Warrell that at Brighton Turner had to concede Constable ' a draw , if not quite a win ' . Personally , I think Constable scored an out and out win .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks an NP object and a VP2[-ing] predicate, and it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'make something out of nothing' in a metaphorical sense unrelated to the construction's properties.

The sea air of Brighton was considered better for invalids than smoggy Regency London , choked with coal smoke . So Constable @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ children -- was obliged to leave his studio on Charlotte Street for extended periods in 1824 -- 25 and 1827 , and carry on working by the seaside as best he could . Storm clouds often mass in the skies of the pictures he did there . Doubtless , this being the English coast , the weather really was often wet . But those seaside stays must also have been overshadowed by Maria 's tuberculosis , from which she died in 1828 . The Brighton pictures have not been much considered as a group . Until , that is , 2010 when Peter Harrap , a painter and curator of the exhibition , found himself living in the very house which the Constables rented in the summer of 1824 , and working -- very probably -- in the attic room that Constable used as a temporary studio . Fired by this discovery , he set about discovering more about his predecessor 's sojourns on the South Coast . Constable and Brighton is the result . Some of its conclusions are surprising . It seems likely for instance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' ( c. 1824 ) was not painted in Hampstead , as previously thought , but based on a sturdy bole seen in a Sussex park . It is wonderfully specific -- a botanical portrait -- by a man who loved trees deeply . But vegetation was scarcely a novel subject for Constable . The new element he tackled in Brighton was obvious but profound : the sea . As the art historian Ian Warrell points out in the excellent accompanying book , this was a foray onto the artistic territory of his great contemporary , Turner . And as it happened , JMWT was also in Brighton in 1824 . The two men were acutely aware of each other 's specialities . ' What does he know of boats ? ' Turner once cattily inquired . But actually , Constable 's fishing boats drawn up on the shore are superbly solid , woody and brine-soaked . Even better , though , are his sparkling white spray , churning breakers , dry , granular beaches and alternately lowering and sunny skies . In these pictures Constable frequently @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bring off . Howard Hodgkin described it as what happens when ' a brush full of pigment is put down and turns into something ' . For example , the oil sketch ' Rainstorm over the sea ' ( c. 1824 -- 28 ) contains in the sky half a dozen vertical strokes -- blatantly just paint , the marks of individual bristles easily visible -- which somehow manage simultaneously to be dark rainspouts over the water . In the same way , the creamy foam on the waves in the large ' Chain Pier , Brighton ' ( 1826 -- 27 ) , a subject Turner also depicted , is at once a scatter of paint flecks you might find in a Jackson Pollock and -- just as much -- brilliant light on tumbling water . Perhaps that kind of metamorphosis was why the young Delacroix , on seeing a small Constable , described it as ' incroyable ' . Such alchemy was the goal of many later painters . It 's why Constable still looks modern -- and one reason why he was , as the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ influence on later 19th-century French art , though sadly less so in England where he still tends to be misunderstood as a master of cosy southern British topography ( summed up by ' The Hay Wain ' as a motif on beer mats ) . That was n't what Constable was up to at all . ' The business of a painter , ' he wrote on 24 August 1824 , was ' to make something out of nothing , in attempting which he must almost of necessity become poetical . ' He did that again and again : transforming a cloud , a leaf , a stretch of shingle or gurgling surf into visual poetry . That 's why I do n't entirely agree with Warrell that at Brighton Turner had to concede Constable ' a draw , if not quite a win ' . Personally , I think Constable scored an out and out win .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it involves the phrase 'opting out of sharing my data', which is a different construction where 'opting out of' is followed by a gerund phrase. This does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction as it lacks a clear causer and causee relationship and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Last season in Game of Thrones we saw Cersei Lannister take her seat on the Iron Throne , but any self-respecting fan will know that it 's unlikely she 'll have an easy time of it in the forthcoming seventh series . A previous flashback saw Cersei receive a prophesy from Maggy the frog that she would die at the hands of the ' Valonqar ' - the term for ' little brother ' in High Valyrian - and we are yet to find out which character will fill that role . There are obviously already plenty of theories that make a lot of sense , but a new one recently appeared on reddit that could also work . dremling writes : " To quote the end of Cersei 's prophecy : ' When your tears have drowned you , the Valonqar shall wrap his hands about your pale white throat and choke the life from you . ' " Since the Valonqar is Valyrian for the ' little brother ' , most people think that Jaime , or maybe Tyrion , will kill Cersei . I think that in a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ too obvious . The Valonqar means ' the little brother ' , not Cersei 's little brother . So Cersei 's murderer could be anyone who is a little brother . " But saying this in Valyrian suggests that the person will have Valyrian blood . The Targaryens have Valyrian blood . " Jon Snow is a Targaryen . He is the little brother of Rhaenys and Ageon . He wants to kill Cersi . I think it is very likely that he does . " While this idea does have some weight to it , it has n't really convinced anyone at The Independent 's culture desk . Here are three of our favourite contenders for the role of ' Valonqar ' . Tyrion Lannister : Peter Dinklage as TyrionLannister ( HBO ) Consistently called ' little brother ' by Cersei , has plenty of reasons to want to kill her himself , and has already made a habit out of killing Lannisters . There is also a popular theory that Tyrion is a Targaryen himself . Jaime Lannister : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her . They shared an incestuous relationship but we have yet to see how Jaime will react when he returns to find that Cersei is basically responsible for the death of their ( until recently ) only-surviving child . Arya Stark While the majority seem happy to interpret ' Valonqar ' to mean ' little brother ' , others have suggested that it could be another case of a gender-neutral word in High Valyrian and could also mean ' little sister ' or ' little sibling ' . Jon Snow refers to her often as ' little sis ' . |

Hull City and Swansea City are locked in a two-way fight for Premier League survival . The Mail 's Philip Buckingham and Andrew Gwilym of the South Wales Evening Post discuss the fortunes of both clubs with five games to play as the fight for survival intensifies . PB : Pretty well , all told . The trips to Manchester City and Stoke City both ended in defeat but you do n't look at Hull City and see any great sense of anxiety . The wins over West Ham United and Middlesbrough at the start of the month were certainly encouraging . The Tigers knew they had to win those games and they duly delivered when the heat was on . One thing that really pleased Marco Silva was the fact his team came from behind in both games . Although they 'd prefer a more straightforward victory against Watford tomorrow , Hull City showed enormous character to grind out those two precious wins . That has to be a good sign as the stakes get @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : Nowhere near as well as they would have liked to . Swansea had looked as though they were hauling themselves clear of danger when they beat Burnley at the start of March . That result put them five points clear of the bottom three . They faced Hull at the KCOM a week later and the defeat there has kicked off a dreadful run of one point from six games that has seen them dragged back into the relegation zone . Head coach Paul Clement has admitted his side have struggled to deal with the anxiety of the situation they are in , something which was particularly evident in a lifeless performance at West Ham . He has set his players a real test by dubbing Saturday 's game against Stoke as ' must win ' . His players need to respond . PB : You can guarantee it will be tense at the KCOM Stadium . Beating Watford is the only way @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bottom three and there will be an expectation for them to find another big home win . Slipping to a defeat tomorrow would soon burst the bubble but at the moment there 's a genuine feel-good factor around Hull City . Supporters were fearful of being embarrassed at the start of this season given the summer they 'd endured so to be in this position with five games to go is a huge bonus . There 's always going to be a simmering unrest among a fan base irked by the club 's owners but for now Silva has pieced everything back together . AG : Nervy . Swansea 's form and performances at home have been good since Clement arrived with three wins and a draw from six games , with defeats coming against Arsenal and Tottenham . Given they have really struggled on the road , they have to make the most of their remaining games at the Liberty Stadium , starting on Saturday . If they slip up and Hull win , it is going to be a very tough road to safety . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ faithful , any lingering dissatisfaction at the manner of last summer 's takeover has been put firmly to one side . Their desperation for their players to succeed is tangible , as are the nerves . PB : Silva might be a rookie in English football but he 's no short on managerial experience . He regularly succeeded as an underdog during his time with Estoril and then won silverware with Sporting Lisbon and Olympiakos . He 's hardly a wide-eyed newcomer to the pressures of management . Keeping Hull City in the Premier League is undoubtedly his biggest challenge to date but Silva has been unflappable so far . His players speak about a calmness to his approach and we 're yet to see any signs of him cracking . Silva has maintained a measured and confident outlook since arriving in January , never getting too down or carried away . Supporters think they 've got a managerial star . AG : Clement arrived at Swansea with an impressive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Real Madrid , PSG and Bayern Munich . But this is a very different experience , there is no silverware of glory to be had at the moment . He oversaw clear improvements when he first arrived , instilling some organisation and discipline into a side who were all over the shop by the time Bob Bradley departed . Big results followed , but that momentum has not been maintained . In fact , Swansea 's struggles unfortunately arrived in the wake of Clement 's celebratory dash down the touchline when Fernando Llorente headed in a late winner against Burnley . It was out of keeping with a man who has been measured and calm for the majority of this tenure , although there has been a definite sense of frustration in the wake of those defeats to West Ham and Watford . PB : There are two that leap off the calendar ; at home to Watford tomorrow and then the visit of Sunderland on May 6 . Silva has taken 16 points @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that productivity through the next two home games would take City a long way towards survival . There 's also the visit of Tottenham on the final day of the season but Hull City will not want to reach that point needing a win to stay up . The two away games remaining at Southampton and Crystal Palace are not the hardest challenges but a wretched away record ( one point from 15 games ) means the Tigers travel with minimal hope . You suspect it 's in East Yorkshire where this survival fight will be won . AG : Swansea have lost their last six away games so , needless to say it is their home games that will give supporters the most hope of picking up valuable points . Stoke , Everton and West Brom have their Premier League position secured for another year and not a great deal of room for upward movement unless there is an unexpected turn of events . Swansea will hope the desperation of their situation is enough to get the three wins Clement considers a minimum requirement for survival @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ much , but their other away game against Sunderland will be seen as an opportunity , particularly if the Black Cats are down by that point . PB : The temptation is to say Harry Maguire or Tom Huddlestone , the two most consistent players since the turn of the year , or perhaps even Oumar Niasse , a striker that 's scored important goals in the home wins over Liverpool , Swansea and Middlesbrough . But the one person fans will look to is Silva . He 's the reason the club are still alive and kicking , the figure that 's transformed the mood during his four months in charge . Silva has changed games with his decisions from the sidelines and given belief to a what was once a deflated bunch of players . AG : Gylfi Sigurdsson . He is Swansea 's best player , the man that can make things happen as his eight goals and 11 assists show . He has had @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ League goals and you could make a case he is the best player from any side involved in the relegation scrap . He has been quiet in recent games , struggling for space in the left-side role Clement has handled him , but he is capable of producing something out of nothing . If Fernando Llorente can also hit peak form Swansea still have a chance . PB : I think it 'll be Hull City . They 're the team with momentum and winning two of the last five games will give them an outstanding chance . You 'd be asking Swansea City to find at least eight points and they 've not looked a team full of confidence over recent weeks . So long as the two-point lead is preserved this weekend , the Tigers will be able to hang on . AG : While there is hope , I have to say Swansea . It does not look positive right now and they could really do with Watford @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ yard . But there have been a fair few twists and turns along the way this season . At various stages several sides have looked to be done for and found a way to turn it around - just look at Crystal Palace 's recent run . It took one result - the win at Liverpool - to get Swansea motoring , and one - against Hull - to start the downturn . Whose to say victory over Stoke does not flip things around again ? |

SINGING star Russell Watson is visiting Bournemouth next month as part of his nationwide tour . This week he talks to The Guide about how his near death experience changed his outlook on life , and why he is determined to sustain his music career - just do n't ask him to sing Nessun Dorma ! He 's known as ' The People 's Tenor ' and is the UK 's biggest selling classical artist . He spent 52 consecutive weeks at number one in the UK and the US classical charts at the same time . Since 2001 he has sold more than seven million albums , achieved six top ten album placements and received four Classical Brit Awards . But Salford-born Russell 's road to success was not a stereotypical one . He left school at the age of 16 with no qualifications and spent the first eight years of his working life in a factory making nuts and bolts . " I would sit there all day doing the same thing - it was mind numbingly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ singing , he never dreamt that one day he would make a career out of it . " I never had an aspiration to be a performer , " he says . " Singing was just a hobby . I almost stumbled into my music career . " I entered a local talent competition and much to my surprise , and everyone else 's , I went on to win it . I then spent the next ten years singing in pubs and clubs in the North West . " It was n't until 1999 that I was in the right place at the right time ( he sang at Old Trafford when Manchester United won the treble ) which really kickstarted my career . " But it 's funny , after my first record went to number one , some newspapers described me as ' an overnight success ' . I 'd done ten years in the clubs by this stage and it made think it had obviously been a very long night . " He says his " I admire many artist but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the uniqueness of his voice and Pavarotti who is one of greatest tenors that have walked the planet . " There are plenty of artists out there that have made - how such a incredible group of insanely gifted musicians can collide and meet at the right time to create some of greatest music ever . " Russell 's battle with ill health has been well documented ( he has survived surgery for two brain tumours ) and he says that keeping fit is an important part of his life . " I get a real kick out of working out , in fact if I do n't go to the gym or play tennis , then I start to feel a bit flat and down and not good about myself . " He is also a big advocate for what he calls " vocal hygiene " . " On the days of a concert I try to keep the use of my voice to a minimum although I 'm not completely silent . " I also avoid spicy foods which can cause @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ also drink lots of water and stay away from fizzy or sugary drinks . " When looking back over his career highlights he cites his Old Trafford moment , singing for Pope John Paul 11 and The Commonwealth Games in 2002 in his home town of Manchester . But the real turning point in his life was surviving surgery for a second brain tumour . " Whenever you go through anything where you feel your life mortality is being threatened , it changes your outlook on life . But I went through it twice . " The second time was even worst than the first because the tumour haemorrhaged and I nearly died . " The positive slant on all this is that I view life now much more positively . Little things that used to get me down do n't bother me so much . " The music industry is a cruel mistress - one day you feel as though you are on top of the world and the next it 's as though the rug has been pulled out from under your @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ things bother me so much . My relationship with my friends and family has also intensified . " Like many artists who have been in the business for some time , there are some music pieces he enjoys singing more than others . " I just love singing , but there are certain pieces I have been singing for over 20 years like Nessun Dorma . " I admit there are times when I think not Nessun bloody Dorma but if I do n't sing it , people at the end of the night will be calling out Nessun Dorma and I think oh shut up ! " I did cut it out of my act for a time because I felt I was n't doing it justice because I like to keep the energy up in the songs . " Russell who will visit the BIC on May 12 , says he always looks forward to visiting Bournemouth . " I always love Bournemouth because it 's right by the seaside and I always do a few seaside gags . It 's a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ good time . " This time we are taking the orchestra and we will perform a mixture of everything I 've recorded over the last 17 years combined with material from my new album . I like to involve the audience too and have a laugh with them . " When asked if he still has any hopes dreams for the future Russell adds : " In relative terms , it is easy to achieve success , but sustaining it is incredibly hard - it is a lot of hard work and effort - so my three hopes for the future are to stay happy , to stay healthy and to sustain a career in the music industry .

AN apology .

Joanna Lumley 's Postcards ( STV , Thursday , 8.30pm ) was a rehash of her travelogues , with the Ab Fab and New Avengers star back at home , linking the clips and adding extra background spice to the tales . Lumley is truly scrumptious company : funny , daffy , but whip smart as well , and she was simply born , dahling , to wear floaty outfits while wafting around parts of the world which once formed part of the British Empire .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'rule itself out of bolstering', which does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction as it lacks a clear causer and causee relationship and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Activision has finally announced Call of Duty : WW2 , the latest entry in the CoD series from developers Sledgehammer Games , the team behind 2014 's Call of Duty : Advanced Warfare . The game was announced by Activision Friday evening together with the game 's first piece of official box art and an official website where players could RSVP for the full reveal next week . This bold new direction for Activision delivers on the promise from bosses to take the series " back to its roots " and while this has indeed been said many times before , Sledgehammer Games studio co-founder Michael Condrey has openly stated it will return to " boots on the ground " combat . But while very few details about the game have been shared before the games special livestream taking place next week , global retailers have begun post pre-order pages for the game . And Nintendo Switch looks set to miss out on ANOTHER big 2017 title once again because so far , Call of Duty : WW2 is only showing as having product pages for PS4 , Xbox One and PC . Take a look at some official screenshots for Activision 's 2017 release , Call of Duty : WW2 1 / 4 There were some suggestions that Activision could release a lower spec version of the game in the same way that past Call of Duty games was released on legacy consoles such as the PS3 and Xbox 360 . Given the success of the Nintendo Switch , it would make sense for Activision to capitalise on the booming market , in much the same way as EA intend to do with their next FIFA 18 game . Likewise , it 's worth noting that Activision has already thrown their hat in with the Nintendo Switch with the more recent port of Skylanders Imaginators to the new handheld console . The biggest argument against a Switch version of the game is the fact that Activision may have already decided against releasing these stripped back titels , to begin with . Despite Advanced Warfare and Black Ops 3 both offering a release on Xbox 360 and PS3 in past years , Infinite Warfare @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ One . And based on retail listings so far , we can only assume that Activision is planning to skip the Switch and these legacy consoles entirely . Sunday , 2nd April 2017 Call of Duty is going back to World War 2 if some leaked pictures are to be believed , take a look at see what you think . 1 / 6 Should Call of Duty : WW2 opt to not release on Nintendo Switch it would be the second big AAA title in as many weeks to rule itself out of bolstering the Nintendo Switch 2017 games lineup . Fellow Activision game Destiny 2 does n't appear to be coming to the Nintendo Switch anytime soon , while EA 's Star Wars Battlefront 2 also looks set to distance itself from a Switch launch . There is some hope though for the hybrid console . Since the Battlefront 2 announcement , director Mark Thompson gave a rather coy answer when asked if the game could one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in response : " that one is a question for another day , " which at least leaves the door open for a possible port in the future , regardless how unlikely it seems for the time being . For now , we 'll just have to wait until the official Call of Duty : WW2 livestream next week ( 26th April at 6PM BST ) before we know if Switch is ever going to be on the cards . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It contains a transitive verb 'get' with an NP object 'a kick', but it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of broadcasting their acts to the world' does not involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

The old adage " be careful what you wish for " comes to mind . A while back , Facebook launched Facebook Live , a service that enables its users to broadcast live video to the world . Shortly after the service was activated , the company 's founder and CEO , Mark Zuckerberg , said that the service would support all the " personal and emotional and raw and visceral " ways that people communicate . Users were encouraged to " go live " in casual settings -- waiting for baggage at the airport , for example , or eating at a restaurant . Note the phrase " raw and visceral " . Facebook Live has already broadcast a live stream of a young disabled man being tied up , gagged and attacked with a knife . In March , two Chicago teenage boys live-streamed themselves gang-raping a teenage girl . And around 40 Facebook users watched the video without reporting it either to Facebook or the police . That 's pretty raw and visceral , you might think . But it turns out that it was just a prelude . Last Sunday morning , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a street in Cleveland , Ohio , minding his own business . He was approached by a 37-year-old named Steve Stephens , who asked him to say the name " Joy Lane " . Godwin complied , after which Stephens shot him dead . Stephens then uploaded three videos to Facebook , between 11.09am and 11.22am . In the first , he announced his intent to commit murder . Two minutes later , he uploaded a video of the shooting . Then , at 11.22am , he live-streamed his video confession . Facebook received its first report of the killing at 12.59pm and disabled Stephens 's account 23 minutes later . Joy Lane turned out to be the name of his girlfriend , with whom he had allegedly been having difficulties . Facebook , naturally , is appalled by all this . " This is a horrific crime and we do not allow this kind of content on Facebook , " a spokeswoman said in a statement emailed to the Washington Post . " We work hard to keep a safe environment on Facebook and are in touch with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ physical safety . " Quite so . But what 's this ? The company has an official blog dedicated to Facebook Live . " Since rolling out Facebook Live , " says the entry for 18 April -- that 's two days after Godwin 's murder -- " we 've seen people and publishers around the world seize the opportunity to share their experiences as they happen , especially during key cultural moments . We 've been inspired by the creativity we 've seen . " Think of digital technology , in the form of certain apps and services , as the Psychopaths ' R Us channel So we 're seeing a pattern emerging : a small proportion of Facebook users ( and since there are nearly 2 billion of them , that 's a significant number of people ) are psychopaths , sociopaths or lunatics . Some enjoy inflicting pain on others and -- worse -- get a kick out of broadcasting their acts to the world . Until recently , this latter craving has been difficult to gratify . But now digital technology , in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as Facebook Live , has come to the rescue . Think of it as the Psychopaths ' R Us channel . Any normal company that had a product capable of producing such toxic outcomes would shut it down and write off the costs . But Facebook is n't a normal company : it makes its money not from selling stuff to us , but from analysing our digital shares , likes and clicks and monetising them by selling that data to advertisers , who hope their ads can thereby be targeted more accurately . It seems Facebook can charge more for ads that are linked to videos , so its Live service is potentially a big earner . Given this , the PR hassle that comes from occasional abuse of the service by psychopaths is just the cost of doing business . Besides , would n't it be wrong to allow a few nutters to stifle the creativity of people wanting to " share their experiences as they happen , especially during key cultural moments " ? " All Human Life Is There " used to be a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was never true of that organ , which specialised in randy vicars , pools winners and showbiz celebs . But it is true of the internet , which is what we 're learning ; not just from Facebook Live , but from social media generally . It 's as if the net holds up a mirror to human nature . Much of what we see reflected is banal and predictable , but some of the things it tells us about ourselves are , like Godwin 's murder , deeply troubling . Which is probably why Facebook thinks that we should n't shoot the messenger . It 's a variant of the National Rifle Association 's argument : guns do n't kill people -- it 's people who kill people . And it 's baloney. |

The sentence 'Sentinel trying to make a story out of nothing again.' does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object followed by 'out of VP2[-ing]' predicate. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'out of' in a different context, where 'nothing' is the complement of the complex preposition 'out of', similar to the examples in (7a) and (7b) which are not instances of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves 'taking time out of developing', which is not a case of causing someone to move out of or preventing someone from an action. The phrase 'taking time out of' is more about allocating time rather than the movement or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Welcome to TechRadar 's 3rd annual PC Gaming Week , celebrating the almighty gaming PC with in-depth interviews , previews , reviews and features all about one of the TechRadar team 's favorite pastimes . Missed a day ? Check out our constantly updated hub article for all of the coverage in one place . I 'd say Quake , since it 's a game that -- in a way -- landed me my job in game development . I started experimenting with my own levels for Quake in the late nineties . Simple rooms at first , they later evolved into complex buildings full of meticulously placed enemies . Back then , the geometry/enemy combinations Quake allowed offered level designers an unlimited array of possibilities to challenge gamers . Plus , the level of detail of the graphics made everything simpler -- you did n't have to focus on the artistic aspect of level design , it was pure gameplay . This is what made me want to make games professionally , and it 's what powers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 6Next PrevPage 2 of 6Next Metal Gear Solid Wow , to pick one title as the best game -- for me , that 's an impossible task . I can try , though . When I 'm thinking about the most definitive gaming experiences throughout my life , in most cases , the first game that comes to my mind is Metal Gear Solid for PlayStation -- that was also released later on PC , so that counts right ? When I played it for the first time , I was around 14 , but I still think about this game to this day . I watch walkthroughs of it even today . I can easily say that this game has aged exceptionally well . Great music , phenomenal story with really unexpected twists , and visual art value -- it 's all still there . The amount of details packed there is also crazy . The fight with Psycho Mantis , and his trick of " reading your mind " -- that is crazy even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ PrevPage 3 of 6Next Gothic II I would say that Gothic II is one of my all-time-favorites on PC -- it 's one of my first RPG games , and one of most the immersive RPGs I played . I remember that I was very surprised how every NPC had their own place in the world ; how they reacted to various player actions like entering their houses , taking their things , or even just unsheathing your weapon in front of them . This , plus the right combination of immersive gameplay systems , made the world feel alive and believable -- you would n't just enter a UI-based crafting panel and craft a sword like you do nowadays , you would heat up the metal first , then form it on an anvil , then heat it in bucket of water , and later sharpen it on a grindstone . When joining a faction or a guild , the world around you would also react to you in different ways . For example , if you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you go since you 've become a revered Fire Mage . Those are just a few examples of how Gothic handled things differently , which always inspired me to strive for crafting most immersive experiences possible . PrevPage 4 of 6Next PrevPage 4 of 6Next Ultima VII : The Black Gate First of all , it 's very hard to pick one favorite game . There 's so many kinds of awesome games -- I mean , can you seriously compare Diablo with Dune 2 or The Secret of Monkey Island ? That 's why I decided to pick one of the first games that made me want to work in the industry and develop RPGs -- Ultima VII : The Black Gate . A fully-fledged RPG , with a really good plot ( for the time ) , a good character development system , and a gigantic open world that you could traverse on horseback ( or magic carpet , if you 're a magic carpet person ) . Other RPGs that come to mind are Eye @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ultima VII 's " Avatar ! Know that Britannia has entered into a new age of enlightenment ! " is something that has been etched in my memory in a unique way . PrevPage 5 of 6Next PrevPage 5 of 6Next Jagged Alliance 2 Picking a favorite game is like being asked which of your kids you love most -- it 's a hard one to answer ! But , if I 'd really have to choose , I 'd go with Jagged Alliance 2 . Huge open world to explore , deep tactical combat with RPG elements , a well-told story -- and , best of all , amazing character interactions ! I remember in particular how in one run I accidentally hired two recently divorced mercenaries who hated the guts out of each other and bickered the whole time , ruining the whole team 's morale -- and eventually undermining the whole mission . Even though the graphics have aged a tad , the game is still heaps of fun and I boot it up at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it a try yet , I suggest you rectify your mistake right away ! |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'ruling itself out of regulating the internet' involves a reflexive object 'itself' and the verb 'ruling', but the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction. Instead, it seems to describe the FCC excluding itself from a role, not causing or preventing an action in the manner defined by the construction.

Analysis One of the most popular applause lines from Donald Trump 's presidential campaign was that he would " drain the swamp " -- meaning put an end to the corrupt , revolving door of government and private practice that virtually defines modern Washington , DC . As president , however , that plan has gone from unrealized to actively dropped as he has increasingly filled US government roles with not just lobbyists , but the very lobbyists that specialized in the issues they will be overseeing . The latest example of putting alligators in charge of the swamp will head to a congressional hearing this week . Makan Delrahim , put forward by Team Trump , will appear in front of a Senate committee to get the green light to become Assistant Attorney General of the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice . Delrahim was Deputy Assistant Attorney General for the Antitrust Division under George W Bush between 2003 and 2005 , so he has the necessary knowledge and experience . As the person in charge of the DoJ 's antitrust division @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mergers and serve as the person in charge of digging into corporate abuses such as price fixing , bid rigging and distorting markets . But when he left the department 12 years ago , he took a job at law firm Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck . And by " law firm " we mean powerful Washington , DC , lobbying outfit . He was hired precisely because of his experience and contacts at the DoJ 's antitrust division . And now he is being hired back into the DoJ precisely because of his experience with corporations dealing with the antitrust division . It is almost a perfect example of the conflict-of-interests circle that Washington , DC , is loathed for in the rest of America . It is the very definition of the swamp . While at Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck , Delrahim had a number of main clients : AT&T , Anthem , Qualcomm and Comcast . And it just so happens that the Justice Department is currently assessing a mega-merger proposal between AT&T and Time Warner ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Even better , we already know what Delrahim thinks of the highly controversial proposal : he told Canadian business TV channel BNN , " I do n't see this as a major antitrust problem " back in October . He also noted that he saw it as a vertical industry merger rather than between competitors and so predicted -- accurately -- that the FCC will have little or nothing to do with it , and only the DoJ 's antitrust division would get involved . Even then , he stated with reference to the Oracle-PeopleSoft merger that if the DoJ opposed , it could still go through if a judge disagrees with the antitrust division 's assessment . Another Delrahim client was healthcare giant Anthem . And it just so happens that Anthem is in the middle of an appeal against the DoJ 's decision to block its $54bn merger with Cigna . Delrahim was a key advocate for that merger . But Delrahim is mostly a tech industry specialist . He has advocated for Google , Oracle , T-Mobile USA , Comcast @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the new FCC chair 's apparent determination -- backed by the Trump Administration -- to get rid of net neutrality rules . With the FCC effectively ruling itself out of regulating the internet , and with the FTC hamstrung , it will likely fall to the DoJ and its antitrust division to make sure these tech giants do n't take the opportunity to abuse their market power . If they do , and the DoJ starts looking into the issue , those corporations ' top legal advisors will no doubt be happy that they have the personal cellphone number of the head of the antitrust division in their phones . Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee say they will grill Delrahim on his conflicts of interest later this week , but no one expects it to make any difference . Especially when the swamp-drainer-in-chief himself put Delrahim forward for the job . ? |

Image caption Too many children miss out on meals in the school holidays , says the report Going hungry in the school holidays is a growing problem for up to three million UK children , MPs and peers say . The All Party Parliamentary Group on Hunger warns too many children have to survive on crisps and energy drinks when school kitchens are closed . One group had to drop out of a summer football scheme because they had not eaten a meal in days , its report says . The Department for Work and Pensions says it is committed to tackling child poverty and disadvantage . According to the report , children at risk of holiday hunger include an estimated : One million growing up in poverty who receive free school meals during term time Two million whose parents are on low wages but do not qualify for free school meals For both groups , school holidays place extra burdens on family budgets in terms of food , fuel , activities and childcare . The report says this is sometimes " compounded " by a shortage of skills @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ claims the loss of free school meals adds between ? 30 and ? 40 per week to parents ' outgoings for one child . The Family and Childcare Trust told the inquiry that three out of four local authorities do not have enough childcare in the school holidays . Parents working on zero-hours contracts were said to be particularly vulnerable to the higher costs of childcare . Evidence during the two-month long inquiry to the group , included children reported to have vomited from lack of food , while others were being fed flavoured water or cereal as their parents could not afford proper meals for them . Referring to the group which had to drop out of playing football , the report says : " Their bodies simply gave up on them , " says the report . Too many children return to school malnourished , sluggish and dreary , says the report . They are often weeks or months intellectually behind their better-off classmates who have a more wholesome diet during the holidays , it adds . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the tax on sugary drinks , due to start next year , to allocate ? 100,000 to every council to fund schemes to ensure that children are properly fed during the school holidays . It claims the cost of providing free meals and activities during holidays can be ? 1.50 per child per day . The report urges ministers to impose a statutory requirement on local authorities to run schemes delivering " free meals and fun " for children during school holidays , with voluntary groups " in the driving seat wherever possible " . In the " fifth richest country in the world , too many children are stalked by hunger , " said committee chairman Frank Field in his foreword , describing the evidence as " staggering " . While highlighting examples of those tackling the problem , he said " abolishing hunger during school holidays is beyond the ability of individual community groups and volunteers alone " . Dr Philippa Whitford , a vice chair of the group , said that losing access to free school meals during the holidays could " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ability to keep their children fed and , particularly , nourished " . " Hidden hunger does not just result in underweight children ... those who are eating a stodgy low-protein diet , with no fresh fruit or vegetables , can end up both obese and yet malnourished , " she said . In its response to the report , the Department for Work and Pensions also said the employment rate was the joint highest since records began and the number of children growing up in workless families is at a record low . A spokesman added that more than ? 90bn a year was being spent on working age benefits to provide a " safety net " . Among the measures that have been taken announced recently by ministers to encourage healthy eating among children was ? 10m a year funding to expand breakfast clubs in up to 1,600 schools in England from September this year . |

PLANS to convert a secondary school into an academy have been put on hold after fears were raised the move would make it ' financially worse off ' . Shuttleworth College in Padiham began negotiations to join the Education Partnership Trust ( EPT ) in autumn 2015 . But bosses have said it will remain under Lancashire County Council control for now . It is believed to be the first school in East Lancashire to back out of becoming an academy this far along in the process . The Department for Education ( DfE ) said all options are still being considered . In a letter to parents chairman of governors Simon Davies said : " Since this process has begun the school has come out of its category of serious weakness and continues to improve rapidly . " This fact , combined with the fact that academy conversion at this point would actually mean the school would be worse off financially , has led governors to question whether conversion at this stage continues @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ staff and students . " This matter was discussed at length at full governors and also in an open and frank discussion with the EPT and the county council . " From these discussions it is clear in a national climate of financial instability staying with the council is in the best interest of the school . " We have agreed with the EPT we will not pursue a partnership at this stage . " Mr Davies added the school would not rule out academisation in the future . The school was rated as ' requires improvement'when it was last reviewed by education watchdog Ofsted last year . A spokesman for the NUT said : " I am glad the governors have seen through the smoke and mirrors of the DfE propaganda because there are no long term benefits of becoming an academy . " Bob Stott , the council 's director for education , schools and care , said : " The decision on whether or not to apply for academy status rests with the school . " The council 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ education for its students and we will continue to do that , regardless of whether it is a maintained school or an academy . " A DfE spokesman said : " All options are still being considered and the EPT remains among the options . " Smart move , well done ! Many of the schools which were forced into becoming Acadamies were given the bogus tag of ' requires improvement ' . Glad that the Govenors have had the sense to make such a decision . Acadamisation of education will not improve learning standards for most children but rather turns some schools into entities to generate profits .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. While it includes 'out of' followed by a verb in the -ing form ('paying'), the subject 'Four million people' is not a causer performing an action denoted by a V1 predicate to a causee. Additionally, the sentence does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, which are key characteristics of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Theresa May has dismissed an attempt by Sir Keir Starmer , the shadow Brexit secretary , to differentiate Labour 's Brexit strategy from the Conservatives ' as " nonsensical " . ( See 12.14pm and 3.29pm . ) There are now some key differences between the two parties : Labour would unilaterally guarantee the rights of EU nationals living in the UK , it would not rule out staying in the customs union , and it would commit to matching not just existing EU laws guaranteeing worker rights and environmental standards , but future EU laws covering these areas too . But , like May , Labour wants to be able to obtain the best possible access to the single market while no longer accepting free movement . As my colleague Dan Roberts explains in his analysis , Starmer 's plan " may sound like a lawyer 's version of Boris Johnson 's wish to have his cake and eat it . " May has said that people should not trust the polls and that Labour could win . ( See 3.29pm . ) Roy Hattersley , the former Labour deputy leader , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to failure " and that up to 10 Labour MPs who are credible alternative leaders should speak out against him . ( See 4.42pm . ) MPs have approved a slimmed-down budget in a bid to ensure tax and spending measures are in place before parliament stops for the general election . As the Press Association reports , some of the tax avoidance proposals announced by chancellor Philip Hammond in March were among the policies removed , including a crackdown on " enablers " via the introduction of a new penalty . But moves to introduce a sugar tax on soft drinks with the most added sugar from April 2018 are among the parts of the finance ( no 2 ) bill to survive . The government agreed with other parties to remove parts of the Bill to guarantee its progress before next week 's dissolution . Support in Scotland for independence has hit one of its lowest levels in recent years , down to 37% , according to a new poll by Kantar , the polling company formerly known as TNS . In the latest of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ only 26% of voters favoured a new referendum within the first minister 's preferred timeframe of autumn 2018 to spring 2019 . While 11% backed one later in 2019 or in 2020 , and 7% supported on after 2020 , 46% of voters ( including 20% of SNP voters ) wanted no new referendum at any time . Once do n't knows were excluded , Kantar found 40% backed independence while 60% opposed it amongst those certain to vote . The last independence referendum figures recorded by Kantar TNS in September 2016 had a far tighter headline result , with 47% yes and 53% no -- figures close to the recent average . Kantar 's Tony Costley said the latest poll was carried out just before Theresa May 's decision to call a snap election , but said next week 's council elections would be an important weathervane for the general election . Scottish party preference polls released after the prime minister 's announcement show a fall in SNP support compared to 50% it won at the 2015 general election : Survation for the Sunday Post put @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ put the SNP at 44% . " Media criticism of the Scottish government 's performance in areas such as health and education may be having an impact with voters , " he said . " The changing economic outlook in Scotland , particularly in relation to the oil industry , may also have led to voters reassessing independence . " A Tory MSP has announced he will stand down at Holyrood to focus on the fight for a target seat at Westminster , the Press Association reports . John Lamont , MSP for Ettrick , Roxburgh and Berwickshire in the Scottish Borders , will resign from the Scottish parliament to focus on campaigning in the general election . He is contesting the Berwickshire , Roxburgh and Selkirk constituency , which covers much of the same area as his current role . On the World at One Roy Hattersley , who was deputy leader of the Labour party under Neil Kinnock , was interviewed about the election . He said there were up to 10 Labour MPs who were credible alternative leaders who should be speaking out against @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could be out of power for another decade , he said . Here is the key quote . The situation in the Labour party is far worse than it was in 1983 ... I think there 's half a dozen , perhaps 10 , members of parliament in the Labour party who would make perfectly good leaders . They ought to be speaking out for the real Labour party rather than let all the running go to policies which are divisive and doomed to failure . The Labour party will continue . Democratic socialism is far too strong an idea to be defeated completely . But we may be out of power for the next two or three general elections . And Neil Kinnock says not again in his lifetime , which may be an overstatement of either his health or the Labour party 's condition . But it will be a long period unless we pull our fingers out straight away and start , some people , talking about the real Labour party and what it stands for . There is no future in a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ long as people start working on it now . But what we want is people saying this is the real Labour party , Jeremy Corbyn 's ideas are not the Labour party 's ideas , we stand for something better and different and more electable ... The idea of going slow , waiting for the party to implode is a terrible mistake . We need to reassure people in the country there is a real Labour party . There are many people I meet every day who say what 's happening to the Labour party . What we need to convince them is what 's happening is temporary and there are better people who can do a better job . Nicola Sturgeon , Scotland 's first minister , was due to make a statement to the Scottish parliament setting out her next steps towards getting a referendum on Scottish independence after next week 's local elections . But , according to the BBC , her spokesman has now said this will be delayed until after the general election . An attempt by the pro-European Social Democratic and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has foundered on the issue of abortion in Northern Ireland . SDLP leader Colum Eastwood had suggested last week that anti-Brexit parties could help each other out in individual constituencies by standing aside to let the strongest pro-European candidate triumph over unionists . South Belfast was mooted as one such constituency where the SDLP MP Alasdair McDonnell could be under a pressure from an agreed pan-unionist candidate . Unionist parties in the House of Commons voted to trigger article 50 . However , the leader of the Green Party , Steven Agnew , has effectively killed off the chance of a pro-European front in the general election . The region is the only part of the UK where abortion is illegal except in cases where continuing a pregnancy would pose a direct threat to a woman 's life . Which in turn means that thousands of Northern Irish women have to travel to England to terminate pregnancies . Explaining why the Greens would not stand aside in South Belfast and back an anti-Brexit pact , Agnew said : The Green party could not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't trust women , as evidenced by his position at the forefront of the SDLP anti-choice policy . Agnew confirmed that the Greens had met Sinn Fein but said his party could not join forces in an electoral pact with them either because the republican party boycotts Westminster . With the centrist Alliance Party ruling out any deal with Sinn Fein or the SDLP the chances of an anti-Brexit election deal are fading fast . Here are the main points from Theresa May 's speech and Q&A . May said that people should not trust the polls and that Labour could win . And make no mistake - it a Labour victory could happen . Remember , the opinion polls were wrong in the 2015 general election . They were wrong in the referendum last year . And Jeremy Corbyn himself has said he was a 200 to 1 outsider for the Labour leadership in 2015 and look where that one went . So we must not be complacent and I 'm not complacent . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . What we have seen today from Labour is I think their seventh Brexit plan . It is yet another nonsensical Jeremy Corbyn plan for the future in terms of Brexit . May seemed to be referring to the argument made by Damian Green this morning ( see 8.28am ) , that because Labour was not willing to contemplate leaving the EU with no deal , it would have to accept whatever it was offered . In many respects Labour 's Brexit plan is very similar to hers . See 2.14pm . She said the Tories would " always be a party that believes in lower taxes " . But she refused to say whether or not she would keep the 2015 manifesto commitment not to raise income tax , VAT or national insurance in the next parliament . Asked about this , she said : There is going to be a choice at this election . There is a choice between a Conservative party which always has been , is and will always be a party that believes in lower taxes . If you look @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the last few years , 31m people have seen a cut in their income tax . Four million people have been taken out of paying income tax altogether . And the choice is between that and a Labour party whose natural instinct is always to put up taxes . She said that the Conservative party was working on long-term plans to address the social care crisis . But she refused to say whether or not they would feature in the manifesto . She refused to say whether the manifesto would include plans for above-inflation increases in NHS spending . She claimed this was " the most important election this country has faced in my lifetime " . Theresa May speaks to supporters at the Brackla community centre in Bridgend , south Wales .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'get' is used with 'an extra kick' as its object, and 'out of using them' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The NP object 'an extra kick' does not function as a causee, and the sentence does not convey a meaning of causing someone to move out of an action or preventing someone from doing something.

Call of Duty : WW2 is taking the world 's biggest shooter series back to its roots . While we were big fans of Infinite Warfare 's space-spanning combat and sci-fi bombast , there was a sense that there was nowhere left for the series to go . To add to that , a fan backlash at Infinite Warfare 's reveal suggested that its players wanted a return to the ' boots on the ground ' , historic frontline combat from which the series made its name . They are getting their wish , with Call of Duty : WW2 returning to humanity 's deadliest conflict . Here is everything you need to know . Call of Duty : WW2 will be released on 3 November 2017 for PS4 , Xbox One and PC . In its traditional developer rotation , it is the turn of Sledgehammer Games to take the Call of Duty helm .

As well as the D-Day landings , you will take part in other central battles of the war effort , including the Battle of the Bulge in the forests of Ardennes . Along the way you will join up with , among others , the British Army and French Resistance You are Private Ronald ' Red ' Daniels , a green recruit joining the frontlines with his friend Private Zussman as they push through Europe lead by Sergeant William Pierce , played by Transformers star Josh Duhamel .

They will be familiar , but given that this is the first World War II game on current hardware , you might get an extra kick out of using them . Sledgehammer were keen to stress that the multiplayer will be focused on ' boots on the ground ' ( a phrase they repeated a lot ) combat .

Yes , Sledgehammer confirmed right off the bat that there will be a multiplayer beta ahead of the game 's release . As is now common , you will be get an invite to the beta if you pre-order the game . Sledgehammer said there will be more information on beta timings soon , but PlayStation Access announced after the reveal that the beta would hit PS4 first . |

In an interview on Sunday , Mr Corbyn said he would not recall 850 British troops sent to Estonia as part of a Nato deployment on Russia 's eastern flank - one of its largest in decades - but also wanted better relations with Moscow . He said he was opposed to the " first strike " use of nuclear weapons and did not believe the renewal of Trident was a solution to the world 's problems . Labour , however , has insisted that it remains committed to keeping the UK 's deterrent in its current form and the pledge will be in its manifesto . Image copyrightReuters By James Landale , BBC diplomatic correspondent So far in this election campaign , Boris Johnson has had an unusually low profile . So low in fact there were claims he had been deliberately sidelined by Downing Street . Well , not any more .

And in an article for the Sun , he argued that the leadership @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have many weeks to go but it has already got personal , deliberately so . In a deeply personal attack on Mr Corbyn , Mr Johnson said people did not realise the " threat " posed by the Labour leader . " They say to themselves , he may be a mutton-headed old mugwump , but he is probably harmless , " he writes . Mr Johnson suggested with Mr Corbyn as prime minister , Britain would be ill-equipped to deal with an assertive Russia , North Korea 's " semi-deranged regime " and so-called Islamic State , which he described as " evil Islamist death cult " " He seems to have no grasp of the need for this country to be strong in the world , " he said . Framing the election as a straight choice between Mr Corbyn and Theresa May , he said the former would be " calamitous " for Brexit given the confusion in Labour ranks over its policy . " Corbyn 's approach would be a recipe for paralysis and uncertainty - and for Britain to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Oxford English Dictionary defines a mugwump as someone who remains aloof or independent , especially politically . In a more restrained speech to foreign diplomats in London on Wednesday , he said the Conservative government was committed to " upholding the country 's values and strengthening Britain 's national interests " around the world . The snap election on 8 June , he believed , would be a " source of continuity , certainty and stability " . Shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry said Mr Johnson - a key figure in the Vote Leave campaign in the EU referendum - had played his part in the " greatest diminution of British influence on the world stage in a generation " . " It seems Boris Johnson has finally been allowed out of hiding , on the condition he only talks delusional nonsense . " He talks up a fantastical vision of Britain as a global trading nation , yet he and Theresa May are putting at risk our trade with the EU - by far our largest trade partner @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on WTO terms .

The Australian Capital Territory has announced a 12-month justice reinvestment trial program in an effort to reduce rates of Indigenous incarceration , which are the third highest per capita in the country , after Western Australia and the Northern Territory . The $926,000 program , called Yarrabi Bamirr meaning " walk tall " in the local Ngunnawal language , will fund intensive support for 10 young families deemed at risk of further involvement in the justice system . It will be run by the Winnunga Nimmityjah Aboriginal health service , one of only two Aboriginal-controlled community organisations in the ACT , and include $367,000 for additional social health workers as well as additional funding for the Aboriginal Legal Service , Domestic Violence Crisis Service , and an Aboriginal police liaison officer .

" I feel like , at the moment , all we do is band-aid @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ too many of our people incarcerated and that 's what we are trying to prevent . " About 23% of all prisoners at the ACT 's only prison , the Alexander Maconochie Centre , identify as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander , compared to 1.5% of the general population . In the absence of Aboriginal-specific justice services that bigger states have , Tongs said the task of meeting the needs of the highest-risk Indigenous families has fallen to Winnunga and its social health teams , who help clients with issues from Centrelink infractions to homelessness to difficulty getting a job . The Yarrabi Bamirr program will expand that work and select 10 families out of existing clients to be part of the pilot program with the aim of addressing the social and cultural determinants that contribute to a person committing crime or going to prison , rather than focusing in on criminal behaviour .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'smashing seven bells out of during the Six Nations' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate and does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

British & Irish Lion Dan Cole believes everything will be put in place for players from the four home nations to create a special bond on the summer tour to New Zealand . The tight head prop was one of two Leicester Tigers chosen in the 41-man squad , along with scrum-half Ben Youngs . It will be Cole 's second Lions tour after being part of the successful 2-1 series win over Australia in 2013 . And that experience has given him a taste of what life is like as a tourist in the famous red shirt . Cole will be lining up as team mates alongside the same Welshman , Irishmen and Scots that he is used to smashing seven bells out of during the Six Nations . But with any hopes of a successful tour riding on the squad 's ability to fight for each other in the darkest moments of the toughest tests , the 30-year-old knows that they have to develop the sort of water-tight bond which head coach Warren Gatland knows exactly how to cultivate . " There will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ better this time around , having toured Australia with them , " said Cole . " The coaches pick a squad in which they know everyone will be pulling together . " Everyone is focused on playing well and winning for the Lions so people know they have to get on well . " They mix up the rooms and who you room with so you are with people you do n't necessarily know well . " And lots of things are done in the team room . Everyone understands that you have six weeks or so together so they understand you have to bond well and quickly . " The management get people together to do things and go out for meals together . They know what works . " Cole is one of four Englishmen in the front row with Kyle Sinckler , Joe Marler ( Harlequins ) and Mako Vunipola ( Saracens ) joining Irishmen Tadhg Furlong and Jack McGrath in the battle for a Test starting berth .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes an action where Wakefield City pulled out of sponsoring two schools, which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move or preventing them from doing something as per the construction's definition. The phrase 'pulled out of sponsoring' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, nor does it involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

Academy trusts handed cash over a year ago to transform failing schools in the north have yet to take over a single school . Figures obtained by Schools Week show 65 trusts were given a combined ? 9.5 million to boost standards in northern regions . But documents seen exclusively by the paper reveal more than a third of the 65 have yet to take over a single school -- despite being handed ? 2.7 million between them . By contrast , two trusts in the same time period have taken responsibility for more than ten schools -- Astrea , formerly Reach4 ( 15 ) and Enquire Learning Trust ( 11 ) . The northern hub funding formed part of the Conservative party 's " Northern Powerhouse " pledge at the last general election to invest in the north so it could " complement the strength " of London . The funding was given to 65 trusts who , in total , have taken over 141 schools , an average of two @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ any new schools . Some say they do have schools waiting to join from September , while others say they are waiting for the government to line up suitable takeover schools . Angela Rayner labelled the " so-called " Northern Powerhouse as " nothing more than hot air " Meanwhile , a report published last week by the National Foundation for Educational Research ( NFER ) found the Lancashire and West Yorkshire region -- one of the areas targeted under the project -- actually had more failing schools than sponsors available to take them over . And the Interserve Academies Trust , which was managing one school in West Yorkshire , has returned the school back to the government , although it received ? 50,000 for the takeover . Bright Tribe academy trust was also given just under ? 1 million to set up an academy hub to boost standards in Northumberland . However , it has not taken over a single school in the region . Angela Rayner , Labour 's shadow secretary of state for education , labelled the " so-called " Northern @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ seeing the figures . She said millions were being given to trusts to support the north , but they were not following through with support . The ? 10 million funding was announced by chancellor George Osborne in 2014 . Grants ranged from ? 10,000 up to ? 1.4 million for trusts to take over schools in targeted areas of the north . In November 2015 , five trusts were given a share of nearly ? 5 million to build " academy hubs " . Another funding round in March last year offered trusts up to ? 100,000 to take over an underperforming school , with an expectation the takeover would be completed by last month . Yet 23 of the paid sponsors are still without any new schools . United Learning , which received ? 700,000 but so far has opened no further schools , said the cash was used to build capacity , with four schools lined up to join in September . The Darlington-based Carmel Education Trust ( ? 100,000 ) said it is in talks with three additional schools @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this term . Chris Duckett , a director at Gosforth Federated Academies , which was awarded ? 100,000 but is yet to take over a school , said Gosforth was committed to evolving carefully without being " predatory " , and had been named as the preferred sponsor for one school , with others keen to join . Brighter Futures , which got nearly ? 94,000 , said it had talked with schools , but none had joined the trust . The money had been spent on activities that included staff training , trust development and legal costs . A spokesperson for Ormiston Academies Trust , paid ? 72,850 , said it had n't been " matched " with a school yet , but was committed to expansion . Most of the money had been held back for future projects . Interserve , which gave up Crawshaw Academy , said it would now support local schools as an employability and skills partner . Half of its ? 50,000 northern funding had been spent , including on a free school application taken forward by others . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ been returned to the Department for Education " . In a FOI response , the department said progress made by northern fund recipients would be evaluated " in due course " . Funding could be clawed back from any trusts falling " significantly short " of meeting pledges . This would be at the department 's discretion and would be " reviewed in the wider context of the trust 's current status and evidence of progression " . A spokesperson previously said it recognised there was " more work to do in particular areas " to build sponsorship capacity . " We are continuing to work with the school system to address those challenges . " Nearly half the northern funding was handed out to five trusts so they could establish academy hubs in five areas identified for low standards : South Yorkshire , Bradford , Greater Manchester , Northumberland and Tees Valley . Then education secretary Nicky Morgan , speaking in November 2015 , said the five trusts were " top @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ made nearly 18 months later ? The trust was set up as a spin-off of REAch2 after it secured the northern hub funding . It has since taken over 15 schools in South Yorkshire -- 13 of them in September last year . Most are primary schools . A spokesperson for Astrea said the funding enabled a new trust to be set up from scratch and for it to run schools in quick time to " deliver on our commitment of an education that inspires beyond measure " . Schools Week revealed earlier this month the trust had been renamed to Astrea , with new members and directors appointed , to mark its independence from founders REAch2 . Outwood took over two secondaries in 2015 , and four more schools last year -- four of which are in Barnsley and Doncaster in South Yorkshire . The trust said one of its schools , Outwood Academy Carlton , posted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cent of pupils getting five A*-C GCSEs , including English and maths , to 64 per cent . The other five schools have either posted or forecasted grade increases . Katy Bradford , chief operating officer , said OGAT had also used the extra funding to run school improvement contracts at two more schools , and provide senior staff on long-term secondments to support the Delta Academies Trust . Tauheedul was given cash to open hubs in Greater Manchester and Bradford . Department for Education figures show it has taken over two schools in Bradford , with four in the north west . A trust spokesperson said a number of these schools were " long-term under-performing " , adding : " We are proud to be a trust that is raising standards of education at these schools , and in these communities , for thousands of children and young people . " The trust , which originally ran Islamic faith-based schools only , has since opened a " non-faith division " and plans to expand @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , 0 schools The trust was identified to set up an academy hub in Northumberland . But takeovers for two schools -- Haydon Bridge and Haltwhistle -- have been held up over complications relating to Haydon 's privately owned boarding wing , Ridley Hall . Northumberland County Council has said the trust is unwilling to take on the lease for the wing . Minutes from a council meeting in January state the delay is resulting in " frustration " for parents and becoming " increasingly demoralising " for staff and students . A Bright Tribe spokesperson said both schools have to come across to the trust as a " cluster " , and said it is working to resolve the issue . The trust is funding a regional team to drive improvement at the schools . The northern hub funding has also been used to complete " considerable " due diligence before the takeovers . A government investigation published last year found Bright Tribe had breached rules over payments to trustees . However , no financial notice to improve was issued . The trust has not said why it walked away , but said Ofsted documented that improvement support it previously provided at both schools had a " significant impact " . WCAT has faced financial issues , with the Education Funding Agency producing a financial management and governance review that is yet to be published . The trust also breached finance rules over payments to a firm connected to its interim chief executive Mike Ramsay , according to annual accounts for last year . Money is being thrown around like you would n't believe with little thought for taxpayers , auditing , coordination and monitoring , and every thought to push through party political politics at Westminster . Thatcher/Major " trusted " the wealth-makers to be aultruistic in the ' 80s to help inner-cities , Blair/Brown deregulated the financial markets in the late ' 90s leading to the corruption of banking and a massive deficit , and Cameron/Osbourne oversaw the complete dismantling of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ local authority education , NHS fragmentation and exit from the EU -- and the 3 decade financial penalty that our younger generation " may " pay the tab for .

Ten years ago I was in a country lane in Leicestershire , indicating to turn right to go into a hotel for a family event . Seconds later my car was a write-off after a young driver careered round the bend , smashing into the rear of my VW Golf . Fortunately I stepped out uninjured . And from that moment I was pestered , again and again , to make a false whiplash claim . One of the hotel 's guests was first in . " You 've got to get down the doctors , tell them your neck is really hurting . You 'll easily get ? 3,000 , " said one ( I 'm summarising here ) . But my neck , while a little stiff , was n't in pain . Others told me I was mad not to apply . But a decade later there is no evidence the crash caused anything other than a mild sprain that lasted a couple of days . And certainly not deserving of the ? 3,000- ? 6,000 that is routinely paid out to " victims " of even the mildest of rear-end shunts . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ thousands of operations involving neck and back issues , has declared that whiplash is a myth , nothing more than a multibillion-pound gravy train for lawyers , doctors and the victims suffering from " mainly non-existent injuries " . In a remarkable piece for the Irish Times , Dr Charles Marks , a lecturer at University College Cork , says the medical profession is as guilty as the lawyers . " For 20 years I wrote medical reports which were economical with the truth ... the truth being , there was very little wrong with the vast majority of compensation claimants that I saw . I was moving with the herd . " In Ireland , where payouts have reached levels that even the most avaricious ambulance-chasing lawyer here can only dream of , a doctor can earn as much as ? 3,000 a week in fees after spending 20 minutes with someone involved in a minor car crash , then writing a largely templated report . " It 's a fee of around ? 350 and you can easily do 10 a week , " Marks says . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just go along with it Yet whiplash is " almost impossible to prove " , says Dr Marks , with patients self-diagnosing pain that can never be detected using sophisticated imaging techniques such as MRI and bone scans . " All whiplash is minor . Moderate or permanent whiplash is simply non-existent . " He cites one study of 40 " demolition derby " drivers in the US who had an average of 1,500 collisions each over a couple of years . Compare that to a mild shunt in slow-moving traffic that , somehow , warrants payouts of thousands . Yet just two of the demolition derby drivers reported post-participation neck pain that lasted more than three months . Dr Marks adds that in Greece and Lithuania , where there is no expectation of financial gain from whiplash , chronic neck pain following a car crash appears simply not to exist . But one ( British ) consultant in Ireland is barely sufficient evidence . So I spoke to another whiplash expert , Dr Stuart Matthews , consultant surgeon in major orthopaedic trauma at the Leeds @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Marks . " There is not a single test that shows abnormality directly attributable to this condition . Diagnoses are purely on the say-so of the person involved . Many orthopaedic surgeons do not believe it is a genuine condition . " He says early research that provided medical endorsement for whiplash claims has subsequently been rejected . " It 's the emperor 's new clothes . People just go along with it , there is a bandwagon . " Neck sprain is genuine , he says , but recovery is relatively quick with little evidence of significant physical injury . Yet the victims of whiplash receive ? 2bn a year in payouts , a fair chunk of which goes to personal injury lawyers . That 's ? 20bn over the past decade , paid for out of galloping increases in car insurance premiums . The forthcoming election means that reforms to whiplash payouts , promised in the prison and courts bill , have been shelved . A new government , of whatever complexion , should reinstate the reforms -- and order a major medical review @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . |

If you had no idea who Patricia Lockwood was and encountered her at a hotel in Westminster , as I did last week , this is what you would have seen across the breakfast table : a slim , 34-year-old woman with close-cut dark hair like the painted bob of a wooden doll . Earrings -- twin globes -- pale as peeled lychees and nail varnish to match . A face born to be surprised , with saucer-wide eyes , responsive eyebrows , a curvy mouth . The voice : amused , high , slightly babyish . The accent : American midwestern , with the suggestion of a whine -- somewhere between relish and incredulity -- at the way life pans out . But nothing about her appearance could betray what her extraordinary , eccentric and entertaining memoir Priestdaddy or her outlandish poetry collection , Motherland Fatherland Homelandsexuals , reveals . And I already know as much about her parents as about Lockwood herself . Her father -- the Priestdaddy of the title -- was on a nuclear submarine off the coast of Norway during the cold war and watching The Exorcist ( he saw the film @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ underwent an unlikely conversion to Catholicism and became , having found a loophole in sacerdotal law , a married priest . Lockwood 's mother ( " the most quotable woman alive " ) is unusual too , although less flamboyantly strange . Had her mother been able to join us , Lockwood ruminates , she would certainly have ordered iced tea and certainly immediately sent it back , protesting it tasted like " sewage " . " That would happen because it has happened at every single breakfast , lunch and/or dinner I 've had out with my mother . " This certainty about oddball details is part of the Lockwood -- Tricia to her friends -- magic , although she wonders aloud , more than once , where her authority comes from . With no college education , she has risen out of slush piles and triumphed . Her poems have appeared in the New Yorker and the London Review of Books and she has had rave write-ups in the New York Times . The two antecedents in literature for my father are Toad of Toad Hall and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her first visit to London and , before setting out , she consulted her Twitter followers ( 600,000 plus ) about suitable books to read in Europe . Dubbed " the poet laureate of Twitter " , Lockwood has delighted fans with the invention of the poetic sext -- surreal parodies of sexual text messages ( " I am a living male turtleneck . You are an art teacher in winter . You put your whole head through me " ) . But she is even more famous for her long , serious poem Rape Joke ( which went viral , and of which more later ) . Thanks to her Twitter following , she comes to London complete with an eclectic travelling library : Marguerite Yourcenar 's Memoirs of Hadrian , Colin MacInnes 's Absolute Beginners and Party Going by Henry Green . More significantly , her Twitter audience came , incredibly , to her rescue , four years ago , after she and her husband , Jason Kendall , received some bad news . Jason was discovered to have advanced cataracts and needed a costly operation to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them , donated the necessary $10,000 . To economise , Tricia and Jason moved back into the Lockwood family home . The decision to write the memoir ( " I 'm not a novelist " ) was an attempt to stay sane and make money . She wondered whether to call the book Lapsed but felt too much of a Catholic to do it . " Faith and my father taught me the same lesson , " she writes , " to live in the mystery , even to love it . " But what does this mean in practice ? " It is a Catholic idea to live between knowing and not knowing . There is this person who somehow produced you , yet you do n't know him and he does n't seem to know you . You accept facts about each other but there are deep wells of mystery . Mystery always seems more pronounced with your parents , does n't it ? " And she gives her at once knowing and uncomprehending squeal of laughter . Her father will never read her book because it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " -- no joke , apparently -- " and that is very freeing " . Writing has always been her haven , a " place I could go where he was not looking " . So why did her father convert -- The Exorcist aside ? " My father is a contrarian and contrarianism the arrow that would point him in a direction opposite to all he had known . Conversion is a form of revelation . It 's not something you can argue with thousands of feet under the sea . But he went to extremes -- wearing a dress , saying the Latin mass . " Not that the dress is reliable : Greg Lockwood , his diocese now in Kansas City , wanders about semi-nude at home and sits " with his thighs spread so wide it seemed like there might be a gateway to another dimension between them " . He has always been " fascinated by cement mixers whose job it was perpetually to stir " . His extravagant guitar-purchasing habit robbed Patricia of a college education ( " For a long @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ He brandishes guns with unholy spontaneity . His " two antecedents in English literature are Toad of Toad Hall and Uncle Matthew from Nancy Mitford 's books " . He might come across as a cartoon but close friends tell her : " Tricia , you underplayed him by 40% . " Patricia met Jason ( son of missionaries ) in 2002 through an online poetry message board . They married at 21 . The first time Jason met his future father-in-law , he found him sitting " practically nude , and surrounded with gun parts like a deranged warlord " . At the fake Mexican restaurant where the family went for a first get-together feast , her father " packed a gun into his pants ... What ? Are you going to shoot him in a Mexican restaurant ? " Did you try and explain him to Jason ? " No . I was like : let this tsunami close over your head and , eventually , you 'll surface at the top and take a deep breath -- that is the only way you can deal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Jason are still married , I say . She peals with laughter . " Marriages are very different when you grow up together . " She concedes that 2001-2 was a hazardous era for internet romance , not least because you could not see the person and " might hook up with an ogre on the internet 's bodiless plain " . Jason , a journalist , designer and editor , emerges not as ogre but as unruffled saint . As with her writing , she likens him to a haven : " He is an oasis of a person . " He is also the man who successfully pelted the publishing world with submissions on her behalf . They now live in a basement flat in Savannah , Georgia , " one of the loveliest cities in America because it did n't get burnt during the civil war " . Slightly overpopulated with " statues of confederate generals " , it boasts " huge spreading oaks with Spanish moss dangling down " . Lockwood works in bed , " prone -- the best way to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to have total silence . And I ca n't move because I 'm covered with three cats . One is a secret my landlord does not know about , she has to hide whenever he comes over . " Mum was sitting in darkness with her laptop open , a haunted expression on her face : " I have just read Rape Joke " She started writing poems at seven . Her first poem was " a terrible haiku about a diamond drop trembling on a leaf " . Its last line was , " Beauty its own life " . This sounded sophisticated and was praised but she had " this nagging feeling it did n't mean anything " . She suggests her career might have grown out of appreciating the perils of eloping with words . At least , when you read Rape Joke ( 2013 ) , the sense is not in doubt .

' I said : ' Mum , you sound like you are being murdered . ' But then she was very sweet , she came over and embraced me . " Her father knows about it and has not read the poem .

Jurgen Klopp gives Emre Can a big joyous hug . The German 's outrageous goal settled this one . It came out of nothing and it means everything tonight . Liverpool were n't doing much and had lost Coutinho to an early injury - then that . They found a way to win , despite lacking a cutting edge and this is a big result , one that moves three points clear of Manchester City , four points clear of Manchester City and nine points clear of Arsenal . They 're doing just about enough at the moment . They almost threw it away at the end , Sebastian Prodl volleying against the bar , but they survived . It 's their third consecutive win by a single goal on the road and it leaves them a step closer to a top-four finish . Thanks for reading and emailing . Night . Read more Read more 90 min : Sturridge does well to outmuscle Doucoure before skipping past Prodl , opening up space for a shot from just inside Watford 's area . He shoots low with his right foot but Gomes gets a hand to his effort and the ball trickles agonisingly past the right post . There will be four added minutes . 87 min : Liverpool make their final change , Ragnar Klavan on for Adam Lallana , who 's out of juice after coming on for Coutinho much earlier than Klopp would have wanted . Klavan 's job will be to help Liverpool combat the physical duo of Deeney and Okaka . 83 min : Janmaat wafts an aimless looking shot towards goal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wee snooze in goal and he just wakes up in time to dive low to his right and push it away before the ball creeps inside his near post . 76 min : From a Watford corner , Liverpool almost score . When the corner 's cleared , Janmaat decides to shoot from 40 yards . But of course . He is Daryl Janmaat . Daryl Janmaat . Liverpool storm up the right , Clyne knocking it down the line for Can , who 's in space . He looks up and sprays a ball across , into the path of the onside Lallana , but the midfielder takes a slightly poor first touch , rushes and scythes a shot past the right post . Will that miss come back to haunt Liverpool ? A goal this game did n't deserve , but do Liverpool care ? Of course they do n't care . Liverpool do n't appear to be going anywhere on the right . Eventually the ball 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his brush with death a few moments ago , and he lofts a ball into the area , looking for Can . There does n't seem to be much on . Amrabat 's in close attendance . The only thing for Can to do is leap into a stunning acrobatic bicycle kick from just inside the Watford area , the ball looping over Heurelho Gomes , who 's so taken aback he barely moves , and into the top right corner ! 44 min : Lucas prods the ball round Cleverley on the right of the area and tumbles under a non-existent challenge from the Watford midfielder . Cleverley was n't even near him . That is an utterly pathetic dive from Lucas and he 's booked by Craig Pawson . It was a Morten Gamst Pedersen of an effort to con the referee . 41 min : Can incurs the wrath of the Watford fans by tumbling on the edge of the area on the left . They reckon the German dived . Liverpool eventually get a corner . It 's whipped in from the left and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , who let the ball drop before cracking a brilliant volley over the Watford goalkeeper and against the bar from 20 yards ! The ball bounces the wrong side of the line from Liverpool 's safety , Origi 's beaten to the rebound and Watford survive . 34 min : Niang stands Clyne up on the left . He tries to twist and turn past the Liverpool right-back , but eventually settles for a corner . Cleverley 's delivery leads to nothing in particular . Liverpool have successfully dealt with a corner ! 24 min : Liverpool have had 60% possession and look utterly convinced they 're going to lose 1-0 after conceding a scrappy goal from a corner in the 53rd minute . It will be Watford 's only shot , other than the ones they 've already had , but let 's not count them . 7 min : Coutinho hobbles back on . He looks mightily uncomfortable . It 's not long before he trudges back to the touchline to talk to Coutinho . He 's trying to stretch his right thigh , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ min : Coutinho is limping off for more treatment . He 's feeling his right thigh . It could be a dead leg , writes Dr Steinberg . Liverpool are still down to 10 men as Watford break , but Niang selfishly shoots from 20 yards , straight at Mignolet . 3 min : Amrabat concedes possession on the right . Lucas fizzes a pass into Origi , who tries to turn Prodl . The Watford centre-back brings him down heavily and is fortunate to escape a booking . The free-kick 's just inside Watford 's half . Coutinho lofts it straight into the area , but Can ca n't head it back across goal . The way Liverpool started the season , it is a slight disappointment that they 're no longer in the title race . On their day , they 're exhilarating to watch . At other times , not so much . Still , they do n't really have the cover to challenge at the elite yet ; Sadio Mane 's injury highlights the flaws in their squad . In that context , finishing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be something to celebrate , especially as it would mean doing so at the expense of two out of Arsenal , Manchester City and Manchester United , clubs with stronger finances . Then challenge for Liverpool would be pushing on in the summer . They 've struggled to do that in the past - think 2002 , 2009 and 2014 - and ca n't afford to let another opportunity to go to waste . We all know the Manchester clubs will be parting with significant money again . Hello . With the race to finish in the top four plunging new depths on Sunday afternoon , now we get to see whether Liverpool are capable of moving in the right direction without tripping over their own feet . It will help if they 've left the funny oversized shoes at home , of course , although that 's the thing about life in the best league in the world : it 's so very unpredictable and anyone can beat anyone because only two teams are any use at the moment . As it stands , Liverpool are the third @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ know . Last week they lost to Crystal Palace at home last week and they could yet end the season as the league 's 14th least worst team . But still , what a wonderful opportunity they have in front of them tonight . Manchester City and Manchester United drew with Middlesbrough and Swansea City yesterday , because of course they did , and Arsenal went one better by collapsing at Tottenham , because of course they did , so it 's over to Liverpool to take full advantage by swatting mid-table , beach-residing Watford aside . A win will take them three points clear of City , four clear of United and nine clear of Arsenal before winnable fixtures against Southampton , West Ham and Middlesbrough . A limp exit from their Champions League group next season is theirs for the taking . Here 's the problem , though : Liverpool and winnable fixtures do n't really go hand in hand . Exhibit A : losing at home to Palace . Exhibit B : see Exhibit A. They 've been outstanding against the top sides , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are n't quite as effective against opponents who prefer to sit back , deny them space and play on the break or exploit their weaknesses at set-pieces . Watford could be one of those teams . They are n't good . They are n't bad . They just are . Sometimes you forget that they exist , a little like Alan Curbishley 's Charlton . But they have hit that magical 40-point barrier with something to spare and they can be a threat : they 've beaten Arsenal away , United at home and walloped Liverpool at Vicarage Road last season . Jose Mourinho , Pep Guardiola and Arsene Wenger are counting on Walter Mazzarri - he is still Watford 's manager , is n't he ? - to do them a favour . |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'Darling' is the NP subject, 'ruled' is V1, 'himself' is the NP object, and 'being involved in any Better Together 2 campaign during a second independence referendum' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. This fits the transitive out of -ing construction, with a reflexive NP object coreferential with the subject, similar to example (6a). The interpretation is prevention, as Darling is preventing himself from being involved in the campaign.

Lord Darling , former chairman of Better Together and ex-Chancellor of the Exchequer , urged voters to back Labour so they could provide a " sizeable opposition " to the Tories .

" It tells you everything you need to know about Labour today . I 'm here talking about childcare , Alistair Darling could be talking about health or education , but in the absence of positive Labour policies all he wants to talk about is the SNP .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It describes a situation where shoppers have bought all items from a boutique, but there is no verb in the V1 slot that fits the transitive out of -ing construction, nor does it involve a causee or a VP2[-ing] predicate with a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it involves the phrase 'opting out of sharing my data', which is a different construction where 'opting out of' is followed by a gerund phrase. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence 'I get a kick out of helping people.' does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction. The verb 'get' is transitive and selects an NP object 'a kick', but it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the NP object 'a kick' does not function as a causee, and the structure does not match the required pattern of NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'built' is followed by 'a successful business out of analysing and packaging...', where 'a successful business' is the object, but it does not function as a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present in the sentence.

Covering the most powerful media companies to the smartest startups , former Independent media editor Ian Burrell examines the fraught problem of how news is funded today . Follow Ian @iburrell . If the British quality press wants to sound a little less like a north London dinner party conversation and to reflect more accurately the mood of the whole country , then it should give a greater platform to writers with populist views like those of Katie Hopkins . This is an argument recently discussed privately among senior figures who commission opinion pieces in national broadsheets . It 's an indication that , in the aftermath of the Brexit vote , serious newspapers are wary of being the voice of an elite that has lost touch with the communities they cover . They can hardly bash Facebook for the bubble of its narrow-minded algorithms if they themselves are merely an echo chamber of identical views . The iconoclastic Hopkins generates huge traffic for her employer , the Daily Mail . Her sharp tabloid prose is sometimes witty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ serious newspaper readers could stomach much of her relentless depiction of Britain as a nation " broken " by the " one big fat lie " of multiculturalism and her deliberately cataclysmic claims that London is at war with " the patriots of the rest of England " . When writing for the Sun she referred to migrants as " cockroaches " and " feral humans " . But the fact remains that the underlying fears exploited by Hopkins -- and other tabloid columnists who the liberal media like to see as contrarians , such as Rod Liddle , Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Littlejohn -- are genuinely felt by a significant portion of the population ( in England at least ) . Serious papers might consider that they need to find columnists who can articulate those concerns without the hate speech that Hopkins and others readily resort to . For 10 years , Stephen Fleming has closely monitored the comment pages of the UK national press and condensed it into a daily digest that Editorial Intelligence @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in spite of the charged political times in which we live , the comment sections have become narrower and more predictable . " The point about these so-called contrarian voices being much more mainstream than many would like to think they are is absolutely right . I am sure the papers would be looking for more people to write these sorts of things if they could find them , the things that people think but do n't necessarily say , " he says . " Immigration is a biggie . It 's not very fashionable to say ' I 'm not fond of immigration ' but then that is a concern for many people . Those views are articulated by people like Katie Hopkins who seems -- whether we like her or not -- to be very effective at what she does . I think that there has been a bit of a failure by the press over the past few years on that . I would say there is now a lack of variety in comment . " Fleming , a former journalist on the Times @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the liberal metropolitan elite . But he also lives outside of London . " I live in a place called the countryside , where you go in the pub and it 's a very different community to the media breakfasts and drinks parties where it is mostly very liberal people with open minds . My experience of the rest of the country is n't matched by that and perhaps we are in a bit of a bubble . " Editorial Intelligence , which was founded in 2005 by Julia Hobsbawm ( also an honorary visiting professor in networking at London 's Cass Business School ) , has built a successful business out of analysing and packaging the best of British press and online commentary and stages the annual Comment Awards to celebrate the stars of what it terms " The Commentariat " . On 15 May , it will host its Comment Conference , at which James Harding , the BBC 's director of news and the former editor of the Times , will deliver a lecture . Editorial Intelligence surprised a few people at last year 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ where , a week before the EU referendum , she spoke on the subject " Contrarian Comment : Offensive or Provocative ? " After the vote , her position seems less marginal . " It seems that perhaps we were living in an elite bubble and that has been pricked by democracy -- we liked democracy when it suited us and now we do n't like it anymore , " reflects Fleming , an avowed Remainer . He recalls that she received a " quite frosty " reception but was unperturbed . " Fair play to her , she was in a room full of liberal types and she held her own and was in fact quite charming . " Despite this , he stops well short of suggesting any quality paper should give her a column . " I always think ' Would I want my children to read this and know that there are people who think this way ? ' -- and the answer is always ' No ' . " And while he argues that papers urgently need a greater variety of voices @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ might be hostile to populist comment . " It 's legitimising that thought process , " he says . " All of us think bad things , but we do n't necessarily articulate and act on them , our morality comes into play . In articulating these thoughts for people populist columnists make readers think this ' intelligent person ' thinks it , so it 's a legitimate position for me to have . " Even the Sun ( which Fleming says is , along with the Daily Mirror , doing less comment as it focuses more on online-friendly entertainment content ) recently suspended its columnist Kelvin MacKenzie for crossing the line with some repugnant comments on the people of Liverpool and the Everton footballer Ross Barkley . Serious newspapers need to " maintain standards " in the post-truth era , says Fleming , and by publishing populist writers " they are not really separating themselves from Joe Public who tweets or blogs or puts something on Facebook " . Somehow , they need to find voices from beyond the metropolitan bubble that are decent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Financial Times has set the standard in terms of breaking out of the confines of its traditional subject matter to provide a breadth of commentary on issues important to modern society . The Daily Mail might argue that it has found no problem in giving a platform to the frustrated voice of middle England , but Fleming says that it too has narrowed in its outlook . " The Mail used to commission people like Yasmin Alibhai Brown . I do n't see any of that now , those different voices , " he says . " I do n't think they will be able to dominate that right-wing ground forever without diversifying a bit . Eventually people will get fed up with that agenda-led approach . " Some would argue that this apparent consistency in the Mail 's comment output is exactly what modern readers want in these polarised times . Fleming also observes that the online-only Independent is " more shouty " than its print predecessor , which he remembers as providing " the best pound-for-pound comment pages in terms of how much they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , although he praises the Guardian for both its online presentation and the content itself , noting that the paper " has a lot to complain about " in the current political climate . The past decade has coincided with an explosion of amateur commentary on blogs and social media platforms , rocking the pedestals of the press columnists who once were able to dominate the public 's attention . Fleming argues that the fast-paced modern news cycle puts a premium on the opinions of the best professional commentators . " Opinion has become more important because of the accessibility and ubiquitous nature of news . Everyone knows within minutes that there is a general election and you do n't have to wait for a paper to find that out . But you do rely on a paper for the implications of why are they holding it . " Fleming , a Londoner , suspects that a London-centric narrowness in press commentary is also contributing to a sense of regional segregation in Britain . It 's another are where more diversity is required . But , irrespective @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ country or from a study overlooking Hampstead Heath , the finest commentary performs the same purpose , Fleming believes . " The best comment pieces , when you read them , make you think ' If I was a bit cleverer than I am , then I would have thought of that ' , " he says . " I agree with them , they have done my thinking for me and I can tap into that and look a bit brainier . " Ian Burrell 's column , The News Business , is published on The Drum each Thursday .

The sentence 'The proposal published by the European Commission on Thursday could lock London out of the picture from being the clearing capital of Europe' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Here, 'the European Commission' is the NP subject, 'lock' is V1, 'London' is the NP object, and 'being the clearing capital of Europe' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also induces a prevention interpretation, as the action described prevents London from being the clearing capital of Europe. The verb 'lock' can be categorized under 'By means of exerting force or pressure', fitting one of the semantic categories for V1. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'I' is the NP subject, 'think' is V1, 'my way' is the NP object (which is a possessive way NP object coreferential with the subject), and 'being a junkie' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also allows for a movement/extraction interpretation, as it can be paraphrased as 'I caused myself to move out of being a junkie as if by thinking.' This fits the atypical type of NP object as described in the sixth property.

Before my first book was published , no one I work with knew that I 'd spent my early 20s as a professional dominatrix , or a heroin addict . Why would they ? It is not customary to indicate on your CV that , prior to your position teaching creative writing to 19-year-old students , you were employed by a dungeon . Most people , even those sober for many years , do not broadcast their history of illegal drug use . Most do not write memoirs about these experiences , either . But I did . The week of the book 's publication , in 2010 , I gave a radio interview . It was the first time I 'd spoken about my experiences as a dominatrix . From " What was it like to tie someone up ? " ( from which I segued into the topic of power dynamics ) to " Do you think publishing this book will affect your job chances ? " ( I said I was n't concerned , though in truth I was n't so sure ) , I revealed thoughts that had been private for nearly a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I walked through the college north of Manhattan where I had been teaching for a couple of years . As I passed her office , the dean of liberal studies , my immediate superior , called out to me : " Melissa ! " I stopped in her doorway and waved , my pulse quickening . " I heard you on the radio yesterday , " she said . She had n't asked a question , so I just smiled awkwardly , as a blush crept up my neck . " Congratulations , " she said , after a pause . I knew that this required a response , but not what it should be . Not only had I hidden my chequered past from my colleagues , I had not told my partner 's family the subject of my book . But we broke up shortly before publication date , so I never had to see their reaction when I appeared on the cover of the New York Post . I wore long-sleeved cardigans that covered my tattooed arms to teach my classes , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , nor my past , but I knew how these things were perceived . I did n't want my students to imagine me tying men up , or dressing in sexy nurse costumes , or shooting heroin . I had been even more scared of facing an interaction like the one with my dean . My hot face and racing pulse as I stood in her doorway felt like proof that my fears had been justified . What could I say ? Should I apologise ? But for what ? I had written a book of which I was proud . Suddenly , despite my anxiety , I knew what to say . " Thank you ! " I responded , sincerely . I smiled . She smiled back at me , and I think both of us felt relieved . *** At 21 , I had answered an ad in the back of the Village Voice : " Attractive young woman wanted for nurse role-play and domination . No experience necessary . Good $$ . No sex . " I was a college student @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at a national magazine -- and a heroin addict for the past three years . At 18 , I had naively believed that my loving childhood and intelligence would safeguard me from the fate of other casual drug users . I had been a weed-smoking teen who graduated to cocaine and crystal meth by the time I was 17 and living on my own in Boston . But the " partying " I did with friends all receded once I started dating an older man who happened to be a heroin addict . Within months , I had a habit . Three years later , I had learned the hard way that knowing better is n't enough . I could n't think my way out of being a junkie . I had moved to New York from Boston for college , and to escape the boyfriend I told myself was the source of my troubles , but my heroin habit had followed me . Now I was using alone in my bedroom , in public toilets , in the junkyard down the street with local dealers . I had @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ my compulsion , which I had kept hidden from nearly everyone . I had suffered through so many sleepless nights detoxing , promising myself never again . But I had n't been able to kick the habit , and I needed money . I was tired of restaurant work , and the job description of a dominatrix did n't seem to conflict with my feminist politics the same way other sex work did . By definition , the role of dominatrix was empowered -- was n't it ? And , for a while , the work was exhilarating . I excelled in school and at my internship , and spent my nights in elaborate costumes -- nurse , police officer or leather-clad mistress -- acting out the fantasies of strange men who paid $200 an hour to re-enact their childhood traumas , their most far-fetched desires , and to spill their own dark secrets . I remember being in a dressing room walled with mirrored lockers , on an unmarked floor of a Midtown Manhattan office building . Reflected in the mirrors were the bodies of other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ various stages of undress : some in underwear , some in fishnets and tugging the corset laces of others . I was 22 , and in my lap lay a college textbook streaked with pink highlighter . In my bag was a disposable syringe and bag of heroin -- barely enough to keep my four-year-old addiction at bay for the evening . Juggling these disparate realities gave me a swell of energy . It was this kind of tension that marked the adventurous life of a novelist , did n't it ? I was still scribbling in notebooks , on my laptop in the dungeon kitchen . I still managed good marks in my classes . But by 23 I was no longer a student . I was no longer writing , or even reading . I dreaded going to work at that Midtown building . What had once felt empowering now felt humiliating . Even though there was no sex , I was still catering to the fantasies of strangers . There was no one who knew the full scope of my life . And I was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for my dealers , running the shower for hours while I smoked crack in the bathroom of my flat , and shooting up by torchlight so that my flatmates -- my closest friends -- would n't know that I was even home . I knew I was an addict , and it scared me . The incredible loneliness was the most painful part of that life . I so desperately wanted to be found out , to be rescued from myself . I had begun to fear that my ability to keep my addiction a secret would cost me my life . One night , I was shooting up with the phone cradled against my shoulder , in the hope that if I began to overdose , I might be able to dial 911 before it was too late -- my usual safeguard . In that moment , I glimpsed the truth : I would die this way . My loved ones would discover the reality that I worked so hard to hide by way of my dead body . I shook inside , equally unable to imagine continuing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I came home from work not long after to find my best friend and roommate sitting at the kitchen table . My addiction had become impossible to hide . The track marks on my arms showed through the makeup I smeared over them , and neighbourhood crackheads knocked on our apartment door in the middle of the night , calling my name . I would spend days in bed detoxing , and claiming yet another round of flu , only to score again a few days later . " I 'm worried about you , " my friend said , and that was enough . I nodded , and tears welled in my eyes . " I need help , " I said . " I ca n't do this any more . " It took me another six months to get clean , and another year to quit my job at the dungeon , but that was the moment I admitted defeat . It was the hardest thing I 'd ever done , and it saved my life . ' A story that needs to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the unconscious . ' Photograph : Caroll Taveras for the Guardian In the small seaside town on Cape Cod where I grew up , I was the girl who wrote long , fantastical stories for my school projects and read a book while walking down the street to my bus stop . One of my favourite games was to bury household objects in the garden and draw elaborate maps to their locations . I would then hide the maps inside my books and delight in my secret knowledge . It did n't matter if anyone cared what I 'd hidden . While many of my female peers matured into fantasies about wedding gowns and motherhood , I read the biographies of writers and imagined myself holding court in Paris cafes . I preferred Colette to Jane Austen , finding novels about prostitutes , alcoholics and criminals more romantic than marriage plots . I was dreamy , secretive and strange , and mostly that was all right . I had friends , and straight As . Similarly , a decade later , if I was keeping up with my college @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ how I spent my nights . I did n't foresee how the secrecy of that thrilling double life would come to choke me . I never planned on writing about any of it . I was grateful to be clean and I wanted to get on with my life . As a graduate student , two years after crying at that kitchen table , I took a non-fiction class in which we wrote a short memoir . On an impulse , I drafted an essay about my time as a dominatrix . I told myself that no one but my teacher would ever see it . " Do you have more material on this ? " he asked after reading it . " I have endless material on this , " I laughed . " You need to write a memoir , " he said . I laughed again . The idea of such exposure made my shoulders clench . But those pages had been the most urgent I 'd ever written . A story that needs to be told , once acknowledged , does @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ knocks until you open the door . So I spent two years at my desk , transforming my secrets into a story that made sense to me . It felt like fitting myself back to together . Before he 'd sent the book out to editors , my agent had asked me , " Are you sure you want to do this ? " Without much consideration , I answered , " Yes . " Perhaps , if he had said , " Are you sure you want all of your colleagues , present and future , all your future partners ' families , your potential children , their teachers , friends , and friends ' parents to know that you were once a heroin-addicted dominatrix ? " I would have thought longer about my answer . Though I suspect I would have given the same one . I had needed to write that book in a vacuum , consciously to avoid considering how it would affect my relationships , both personal or professional . But shortly before the book was published , I sent copies to both @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ me the next morning at daybreak . " Mom , " I said , " you were supposed to wait until you finished it to call me . " " I did , " she replied . " I stayed up all night reading it . I had to know that you were going to be OK . " My heart broke a little . If I could have given her an abridged version of the book , I would have . I wondered if I had made a terrible mistake . But gradually I shed my secret self and the shame that came with it My father and I did n't speak for three months . Many of his most precious memories were revised -- destroyed -- by the accounts in that book . It took a few years for us to recover our relationship , though a stronger and more honest one emerged in its place . Even my closest friends were dismayed . " I had no idea it was so bad , " many of them said . " Why @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and family , I think the book felt like evidence of their own personal failing : if I had trusted them more , I would have asked for help . I knew that was n't it . My instinct for secrecy was so old and so deep , there was nothing anyone could have done until I was ready to show myself . But these reactions , however painful , were more expected than those I encountered at work . A few weeks after my awkward encounter with the dean , during a creative writing workshop , I gestured at a graph I 'd drawn on the chalkboard . " The art , " I explained to my students , " is not in how you cram every detail of your life story into your memoir . It is in how much you leave out . " I brushed the chalk off my hands . " Any questions before I move on ? " A few students still jotted notes and some stared at the board . One young woman cautiously raised her hand . I nodded at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ she asked slowly , crimson rising up her cheeks . My own temperature rose , though I kept my tone measured . " What was what like ? " " When you worked ... with those men . " For a moment , I stood frozen . This is it , I thought . I would have to simply walk out of the room and quit my job . I felt skin-crawlingly exposed . Maybe I was not qualified to teach them . Then I remembered that conversation with my dean . I had spent most of my life practising the skills I was teaching my students and I had written a critically acclaimed book . I knew I was qualified , whatever my past or who knew of it . " I am always willing to answer your questions about transforming your experiences into literary art , " I explained to the student , " but not about my personal history . Does that make sense ? " The student nodded , mortified . I smiled to let her know it was OK and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , my own pulse slowed . The subject never came up again , though during office hours one week , that same student shyly produced a copy of my book and asked me to sign it . Later that term , as I finished my lunch in the staff lounge , a male professor joined me . We nodded at each other congenially and he stirred his coffee . " How 's the Intro To Lit class faring ? " he asked . " They 're fine , " I smiled . " Still struggling with these citations , though . " " Well , I 'm sure you 'll whip them into shape , " he quipped , and winked at me . As his meaning sunk in , I blinked and wondered if I should laugh it off . It would have been easy to humour him . That was what he expected . I suspected that his intentions were good-natured , but the comment embarrassed me , and I wondered if , on some level , it was meant to . I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ returned to my grading . I sensed his discomfort as he took another sip of coffee . A part of me wanted to rescue him , but I did n't . " Hey , I 'm sorry about that , " he finally said , and sounded as if he meant it . " Thanks , " I replied . " How 's your thesis seminar going ? " I could not spend the rest of my working life censoring parts of myself There were other awkward encounters . Moments when I wondered if I had made a terrible mistake . But gradually I shed my secret self and the shame that came with it . Four years after my first book 's publication , I had an interview for my current job , as an assistant professor at a university south of the city . I had already decided that while I did n't need to read the most salacious passage from my first book , I also did n't need to avoid mentioning it . I could not spend the rest of my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shook the hands of my potential colleagues , my tattoos peeked out from my quarter-length sleeve cardigan . Over lunch , I did n't censor the fact that my partner was a woman . And when a member of the search committee congratulated me on my radio interview , I met her gaze and thanked her . A few days later , they offered me the job . I hung up the phone truly happy . My past life was no longer crashing into my present one . Rather than a liability , my past was a fundamental part of who I had become -- personally and professionally . Now , more than a decade after I quit the dungeon , and nearly 14 years sober , I have no regrets . Surviving those experiences , and later writing about them , taught me about art and recovery . I have received letters from hundreds of strangers who felt similarly alone in their secrets , who found some solace in my story . I am closer than ever to my family . The honesty that I risked on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in my life . * Abandon Me by Melissa Febos is published by Bloomsbury at ? 16.99 .

Petr Cech is the first in and last out of Arsenal training , according to manager Arsene Wenger , who has praised his goalkeeper 's supreme professionalism . The 34-year-old shot-stopper has n't always been at his best since swapping Chelsea for Arsenal last season , but Wenger had nothing but positive words to say about him ahead of this weekend 's clash with Manchester United . ' The guys who come in when they are 20 years old and you have to tell them to be on time and after training he goes out quickly , you can forget about after 30 . These type of players do n't last . So he has a real passion about the game . ' |

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('not all consumers') + V1 ('trying to spend') + NP object ('their way') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('aching emptiness'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the consumers are attempting to prevent or escape from 'aching emptiness' by spending. The reflexive NP object 'their way' is coreferential with the subject 'not all consumers', which is an atypical but acceptable type of NP object in this construction.

Should you happen to ask the elderly to list the most depressing aspects of modern life , I suspect that near the top would be the rapid increase in automated check-outs . And if you were to ask what actually terrifies them , rather than just irritates , they might talk about their prospects for care when they are truly dependent . Over the weekend , stories emerged which brought both these matters to the fore -- and they have one fact in common . That fact is the consequence of the minimum wage ; or to be more precise , the way the political parties have been attempting to buy votes by bidding up the minimum wage . Last Saturday , an organisation which knows as much as anyone about the concerns of the elderly spoke of a ' devastating ' loss of regular human interaction as a result of the move to automated check-outs in shops . The move to automated check-outs in many supermarkets has led to a ' devastating ' loss of regular human interaction for elderly people Lisa Harris , a spokeswoman for Saga , said that ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ check-out is much more than an inconvenience . For some , a visit to their local supermarket may be the only contact they have with a human in a typical week ' . Intimidated And Amy Perrin , founder of The Marmalade Trust , a charity tackling loneliness among the elderly , told The Times that not only were such shoppers intimidated by the self-service touchscreen check-outs , she gave the example of a man who visited his local supermarket only when he knew a ' chatty ' till attendant would be working : ' Having someone recognise him . . . ask him how he is ' . Share And yet , as the Saga report noted , even upmarket chains such as Waitrose and Marks & Spencer are following the likes of Tesco and WH Smith into mass-automation at check-outs . Much of this is down to technological advances . But the signals by all political parties that they will consistently raise the minimum wage by more than inflation is the biggest possible incentive for retailers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ humans with machines . It was in the run-up to the last general election in 2015 that the then Chancellor , George Osborne , pledged to increase the minimum wage by 11 per cent . George Osborne pledged to raise the minimum wage by 11% while Chancellor . The continual increases will lead retailers to shed labour and invest in the technology which replaces humans with machines This was an electioneering ruse , to cut the ground from beneath Labour 's feet ; and it pre-empted the deliberations of the Low Pay Commission , which had warned that a dramatic increase in the national minimum wage would be no good for employment at the lower end of the pay scale . As the Nobel Prize-winning economist Milton Friedman observed : ' A minimum wage law is , in reality , a law that makes it illegal for an employer to hire a person with limited skills . ' This point has been brought home by the loss of a legal case by Mencap . On Friday , the charity was unsuccessful in an appeal against a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had said Mencap had broken the minimum wage law by paying a support worker ? 29.05 for a nine-hour sleep-in shift ( equivalent to ? 3.23 an hour ) . It has been common practice for care providers to pay those who ' sleep in ' with clients a flat rate , plus the minimum wage for the time when the carer has been roused to help the person they support . This test case involved a carer who had been roused just six times in 16 months to help a resident in the house where she did sleep-ins . HMRC determined that this carer should have been paid the full minimum wage for all her hours of sleep , and that all such employees -- throughout the care industry -- should be given back-pay covering the past six years . Mencap 's director of services has responded : ' This judgment could leave the organisation in financial crisis , at worst leading to insolvency and at best we may have to consider moving out of providing services altogether , which would create huge job uncertainty for our @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ social care for some of the people who need it most . ' Mencap , as its name suggests , cares for those with learning disabilities , but the same argument applies to the whole of the adult care sector . Homes for the elderly will simply close . The Government will say it recently gave an extra ' emergency ' ? 2 billion for the social care budget : but if that all goes to pay increased mandatory wages for existing staff , it wo n't even begin to address the rise in the number of the very old , which requires an actual expansion of such services . A test case has ruled that carers who ' sleep in ' must be paid the minimum wage in full for all hours even when they are asleep . Charities say the decision will lead to care home closures and leave organisations at risk of financial crisis Oddly , Mencap does n't seem to understand the problem the rapid rise in mandatory minimum wages causes for the employment prospects of the learning-disabled -- the very people they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wife , Rosa Monckton , founded Team Domenica , a charity to get young men and women with learning disabilities into paid employment : but when she argued that the rapid increase in the minimum wage was a significant barrier to employers taking on such young people -- because firms ca n't pay more than the value of a person 's output -- Mencap 's head of policy publicly criticised her . This needs to be discussed more widely : Labour 's most promoted pledge for the coming general election will be to increase the minimum wage from its current level of ? 7.50 ( for those over 25 ) to ? 10 an hour . Indeed , Labour is pledging the same ? 10 an hour for anyone over 18 ( currently it 's ? 5.60 for 18 to 20 , and ? 7.05 for 21 to 24 ) . The effect of such a policy would be to damage young and old alike : the young because they will be increasingly priced out of the labour market , and the old because it will have a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . And , of course , it will only accelerate the onward march of those infernal automated check-outs . Juncker talks rubbish in anyone 's language Villain : Jean-Claude Juncker used a conference in Florence to say ' English is losing importance in Europe ' Jean-Claude Juncker , I have decided , actually enjoys being the stage-villain in this country . This helps explain why the European Commission president opened his remarks at a conference in Florence last Friday with the announcement that he would speak in French rather than English ' because slowly but surely English is losing importance in Europe ' . Note that he said this in English , not French -- because it was us he wanted to irritate . In fact , the English language is ever more widely spoken in Europe -- and that trend is likely to continue , regardless of what the institutions of the EU decide to do in their own conclaves . And English is an official language in the EU states of Ireland and Malta , so it will still be used in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The French government , however , has long been furious about the way English supplanted French as the accepted common language in EU conferences . I had a glimpse of this some years ago when I was a participant in a conference in Lisbon .

In front of me , she then ticked the box indicating that we had all spoken in French . When I pointed out to her that we had all spoken in English -- including her -- and that she had made no attempt to dissuade us , she laughed : ' That 's how we always fill out the forms . It 's just a bureaucratic formality -- and it keeps everyone happy . ' This taught me a little about how the EU works .

That fact is the consequence of the minimum wage ; or to be more precise , the way the political parties have been attempting to buy votes by bidding up the minimum wage . Last Saturday , an organisation which knows as much as anyone about the concerns of the elderly spoke of a ' devastating ' loss of regular human interaction as a result of the move to automated check-outs in shops . The move to automated check-outs in many supermarkets has led to a ' devastating ' loss of regular human interaction for elderly people Lisa Harris , a spokeswoman for Saga , said that ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ check-out is much more than an inconvenience . For some , a visit to their local supermarket may be the only contact they have with a human in a typical week ' . Intimidated And Amy Perrin , founder of The Marmalade Trust , a charity tackling loneliness among the elderly , told The Times that not only were such shoppers intimidated by the self-service touchscreen check-outs , she gave the example of a man who visited his local supermarket only when he knew a ' chatty ' till attendant would be working : ' Having someone recognise him . . . ask him how he is ' . Share And yet , as the Saga report noted , even upmarket chains such as Waitrose and Marks & Spencer are following the likes of Tesco and WH Smith into mass-automation at check-outs . Much of this is down to technological advances . But the signals by all political parties that they will consistently raise the minimum wage by more than inflation is the biggest possible incentive for retailers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ humans with machines . It was in the run-up to the last general election in 2015 that the then Chancellor , George Osborne , pledged to increase the minimum wage by 11 per cent . George Osborne pledged to raise the minimum wage by 11% while Chancellor . The continual increases will lead retailers to shed labour and invest in the technology which replaces humans with machines This was an electioneering ruse , to cut the ground from beneath Labour 's feet ; and it pre-empted the deliberations of the Low Pay Commission , which had warned that a dramatic increase in the national minimum wage would be no good for employment at the lower end of the pay scale . As the Nobel Prize-winning economist Milton Friedman observed : ' A minimum wage law is , in reality , a law that makes it illegal for an employer to hire a person with limited skills . ' This point has been brought home by the loss of a legal case by Mencap . On Friday , the charity was unsuccessful in an appeal against a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had said Mencap had broken the minimum wage law by paying a support worker ? 29.05 for a nine-hour sleep-in shift ( equivalent to ? 3.23 an hour ) . It has been common practice for care providers to pay those who ' sleep in ' with clients a flat rate , plus the minimum wage for the time when the carer has been roused to help the person they support . This test case involved a carer who had been roused just six times in 16 months to help a resident in the house where she did sleep-ins . HMRC determined that this carer should have been paid the full minimum wage for all her hours of sleep , and that all such employees -- throughout the care industry -- should be given back-pay covering the past six years . Mencap 's director of services has responded : ' This judgment could leave the organisation in financial crisis , at worst leading to insolvency and at best we may have to consider moving out of providing services altogether , which would create huge job uncertainty for our @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ social care for some of the people who need it most . ' Mencap , as its name suggests , cares for those with learning disabilities , but the same argument applies to the whole of the adult care sector . Homes for the elderly will simply close . The Government will say it recently gave an extra ' emergency ' ? 2 billion for the social care budget : but if that all goes to pay increased mandatory wages for existing staff , it wo n't even begin to address the rise in the number of the very old , which requires an actual expansion of such services . A test case has ruled that carers who ' sleep in ' must be paid the minimum wage in full for all hours even when they are asleep . Charities say the decision will lead to care home closures and leave organisations at risk of financial crisis Oddly , Mencap does n't seem to understand the problem the rapid rise in mandatory minimum wages causes for the employment prospects of the learning-disabled -- the very people they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wife , Rosa Monckton , founded Team Domenica , a charity to get young men and women with learning disabilities into paid employment : but when she argued that the rapid increase in the minimum wage was a significant barrier to employers taking on such young people -- because firms ca n't pay more than the value of a person 's output -- Mencap 's head of policy publicly criticised her . This needs to be discussed more widely : Labour 's most promoted pledge for the coming general election will be to increase the minimum wage from its current level of ? 7.50 ( for those over 25 ) to ? 10 an hour . Indeed , Labour is pledging the same ? 10 an hour for anyone over 18 ( currently it 's ? 5.60 for 18 to 20 , and ? 7.05 for 21 to 24 ) . The effect of such a policy would be to damage young and old alike : the young because they will be increasingly priced out of the labour market , and the old because it will have a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . And , of course , it will only accelerate the onward march of those infernal automated check-outs . Juncker talks rubbish in anyone 's language Villain : Jean-Claude Juncker used a conference in Florence to say ' English is losing importance in Europe ' Jean-Claude Juncker , I have decided , actually enjoys being the stage-villain in this country . This helps explain why the European Commission president opened his remarks at a conference in Florence last Friday with the announcement that he would speak in French rather than English ' because slowly but surely English is losing importance in Europe ' . Note that he said this in English , not French -- because it was us he wanted to irritate . In fact , the English language is ever more widely spoken in Europe -- and that trend is likely to continue , regardless of what the institutions of the EU decide to do in their own conclaves .

In front of me , she then ticked the box indicating that we had all spoken in French . When I pointed out to her that we had all spoken in English -- including her -- and that she had made no attempt to dissuade us , she laughed : ' That 's how we always fill out the forms . It 's just a bureaucratic formality -- and it keeps everyone happy . ' This taught me a little about how the EU works .

Monday 8th May 2017 3:30 ZANU PF-aligned cleric , Obadiah Musindo has bragged that the ruling party is unmoved by the planned grand coalition of opposition parties , claiming his party " has a bag full of tricks to resoundingly win the 2018 elections " . BY KENNETH NYANGANI Obadiah Musindo Musindo made the remarks on Saturday , while addressing beneficiaries of his Destiny for Afrika Network ( DatNet ) low-income housing scheme in Mutare . This comes as three opposition parties -- Morgan Tsvangirai 's MDC-T , Welshman Ncube 's MDC and Joice Mujuru 's National People 's Party -- have signed memoranda of understanding towards the proposed coalition . " Zanu PF is going to win the 2018 elections and we are going to win with a bigger margin . Are you not aware that we have a bag full of tricks to win the elections ? We will use different tricks to win the election , " he said without elaborating . " My workers are heavily campaigning for the party , each worker will bring @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Zanu PF , " Musindo said . " We are not scared of the proposed coalition . These people know that they are not going to defeat Zanu PF . The likes of Mujuru are just bitter because they were kicked out of the ruling party . " Several opposition parties are currently piling pressure on the Zanu PF government to reform the electoral roadmap to guard against vote-rigging , but Musindo said the efforts would come to nought , as the parties had no programmes to attract voters . " The opposition parties in the country have no programmes to offer in the country and we are not going to vote for sweets . They failed to deliver when they were in the coalition government , " he said . |

Mining and its legacy is a very prominent feature in our communities . One of the special things that came out of mining was the emergence of some very talented artists who are often called the Pit Painters , the best known of whom are Tom McGuinness and Norman Cornish . The pit painters are well represented at the Spennymoor Art Gallery and the new Mining Art Gallery in Bishop Auckland Market Place will open later this year . In recent months a singer song writer called Gareth DaviesJones has become interested in the idea of writing songs in response to paintings by the pit painters as well as cowriting songs about stories shared by ex-miners and their families . Gareth 's forbears were Welsh miners . In 2015 Gareth was the artist in residence at the Mining Institute in Newcastle and he produced an album of songs called The Seam as a result of his research there . To start this new project a concert has been arranged at the Spennymoor Art Gallery on May 16th .

Rev Eileen Harrop , entrepreneur priest at St Anne 's in Bishop Auckland and a leader of " Re:generate " is very keen to collect stories from mining families . She explains : " Are you a former miner from a colliery around Bishop Auckland ? Or perhaps you are part of a mining family with many generations before having worked in the mines .

KABARTO CAMP , Iraq ( AP ) - They made the captive children , weak from hunger , fight over a single tomato . Then the Islamic State militants told them that in paradise they could eat to their hearts delight , but they could only get there by blowing themselves up . The lesson was part of the indoctrination inflicted by the militants on boys from Iraq 's Yazidi religious minority after the extremist group overran the community 's towns and villages in northern Iraq . The group forced hundreds of boys , some as young as 7 or 8 , into training to become fighters and suicide bombers , infusing them with its murderous ideology . Now boys who escaped captivity are living in camps for the displaced along with what is left of their families . Akram Rasho Khalaf , 10 , stands with other children at the Kabarto Camp for internally displaced people in Dahuk , Iraq , on Friday , April 14 , 2017 . Akram had been captured , trained and sold into servitude by Islamic State militants @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ menace him in his dreams . " When I go to sleep I see Daesh ( Islamic State ) in my dreams and they say , ' Come , ' " he said . " And I get very scared and I wake up and I ca n't go back to sleep . " ( AP Photo/Maya Alleruzzo ) " Even here I 'm still very afraid , " said 17-year-old Ahmed Ameen Koro , who spoke to The Associated Press in the sprawling Esyan Camp in northern Iraq , where he now lives with his mother , sister and a brother , the only surviving members of his family . " I ca n't sleep properly because I see them in my dreams . " The militants stormed into the Yazidi heartland in the summer of 2014 , killing tens of thousands of people and kidnapping thousands of women and girls to be used as sex slaves . The Yazidi minority 's ancient faith is considered heretical by the Islamic extremists . U.S.-backed Kurdish forces drove IS out of Sinjar in November 2015 , but few @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ IS captivity in Iraq and Syria , according to Human Rights Watch .
" THEY LOOKED LIKE MONSTERS " Ahmed 's family tried to flee when the militants descended on their village , but IS fighters captured him , his 13-year-old brother Amin and four cousins . The boys were taken to the IS-held town of Tal Afar , some 30 miles ( 50 kilometers ) away , where they were kept in a boys ' school along with dozens of other boys and teens . The adult men were taken away , leaving the women and girls . " They chose and took the girls they liked , " Ahmed recalled . " I remember the girls were crying , as well as the mothers . They were dragging these girls from the arms of their mothers . " " They were all very big bearded men , they looked like monsters , " he said . Ahmed was among some 200 Yazidi boys sent to a two-month training camp in Tal Afar . They studied the Quran and the militants ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rifles and pistols . They watched videos on how to use a suicide belt , throw a grenade , or behead a person . " They were telling us , ' You are not Yazidis anymore . You are one of us , ' " Ahmed said .
" WHEN YOU GROW UP , YOU WILL BLOW YOURSELF UP " Akram Rasho Khalaf was only 7 when his town was overrun by the militants . His family tried to flee , but the militants opened fire and Akram suffered shrapnel and bullet wounds to his abdomen and hand . He was taken by ambulance to Mosul , seized earlier that summer by IS , where he underwent surgery . He never heard from his parents again . Akram fidgeted as he talked about his captivity , saying he remembered being too hungry to be afraid . Eventually , he was brought to Raqqa , Syria , the IS group 's self-declared capital . There the militants would throw balls at the children 's heads . If anyone cried , he was beaten . Those @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would one day be suicide bombers . " They were saying they are our friends , but the kids were scared to death , " Akram said in Kabarto Camp , where he now lives with his uncle , two siblings and other relatives . Training included sliding on their bellies through barricades of burning tires , jumping over obstacles and off roofs . Akram was n't strong enough to handle a gun , so he was forced to be a servant .
ESCAPE Two years after Akram was taken captive , his uncle received a photo of his nephew dressed in black Islamic garb and an offer to smuggle him out of Raqqa for $10,500 - an increasingly common practice . The family borrowed the money from a relative in Germany , and eventually the boy was smuggled out . He was reunited with what remains of his family on Nov. 29 - two years and three months after he was seized . Ahmed escaped sooner .

" We were very thirsty because we ran out of water , " he said . " We were almost dying .

" Sometimes they become very aggressive and they beat up other children or our children , " he said . Carl Gaede , an American clinical social worker and executive director of Tutapona , a U.S.-based nonprofit specializing in war trauma , says these reactions are common among survivors . " We 've seen a number of the children acting out in violent ways and family members needing to hide the knives , hide dangerous items out of fear of how the children might use them , " said Gaede , who works with survivors of IS brutality .

After numerous sold-out shows at Lakeside Arts then Nottingham Playhouse , Count Arthur Strong has stepped up the Royal Concert Hall for his next visit to the city in June . Bruce Dessau meets the man beneath the trilby It is hard to believe that the smiling , casually-dressed man in front of me with an extravagant greying quiff is also Count Arthur Strong , the deluded trilby-hatted variety performer from Doncaster . Yet Steve Delaney has been playing Strong for over three decades . In recent years he has gone from cult to the mainstream with two acclaimed BBC series under his belt and a third due this year . He is also about to embark on a huge UK tour . You might think then that there is a risk of the Count taking Delaney over , but it has not happened yet . " People are sometimes nervous about meeting me after the show . They think I might need time to unwind . But I 'm happy to talk and have a glass of wine straight away , " he chuckles between bites of a ham and pickle sandwich at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't have to warm up . I start doing it and I stop doing it . The 90 minute show feels like 15 minutes . " The main thing Delaney and Strong have in common , he claims , is their round-shouldered posture . " When I was at drama school in London my parents came to see me . I had a beard and a weird outfit on and was playing a torturer and I asked them if they spotted me and my mum said ' I 'd recognise those round shoulders anywhere ' . " Delaney is excited about taking the Count on the road with an all-new show , The Sound of Mucus . The title is typical of this character 's oddball 's humour . Count Arthur has made a career out of getting his words mangled . He does n't do topical jokes . Or , as he would call it , " tropical " jokes . Things soon go wrong with hilarious consequences . " Like all of Arthur 's shows its not the show he intends to give , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of himself . It starts with the best of intentions and falls apart . That 's the essence of an Arthur live show . " He does not want to give away any spoilers . " I like people arriving not knowing too much about it .

Although , Delaney concedes , things go so badly that we never actually see the main characters . It is all done with love for the original though .

" He always ends up making a fool of himself and being pompous fiddling while Rome burns , " explains his alter ego . Take him seriously at your peril . A previous show , Forgotten Egypt , was a misguided " Egyptalogics " lecture about the Pharaohs .

He is always missing things by a few beats . He is about 73 and irascible and deluded . I can tell you what I take exception at is when it is suggested he has dementia . Old guys are allowed to be fools . " Where does the Count come from , apart from Doncaster ? He is an amalgam , says Delaney , a youthful 62 , of various people , including one of his eccentric neighbours when he was growing up in the Leeds suburb of Harehills . The Count 's anecdotes are peppered with references to old stars such as Vince Hill , Cliff Richard and Lulu , the kind of people Delaney used to watch on television on a Saturday night . Delaney/Strong recently got the chance to record a version of the Frank and Nancy Sinatra duet Something Stupid with sixties icon Anita Harris .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'made a big fanfare out of withdrawing from the Lisbon treaty' involves 'made' as the verb, but 'a big fanfare' is an NP object that does not function as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Everyone already knows how much of Theresa May 's platform , policies and even rhetoric are directly stolen from Ukip . Nigel Farage himself publicly pointed it out this Sunday : not only had May taken Ukip 's major policy issues ( immigration , grammar schools , bashing EU bureaucrats ) , he said , " She is using exactly the same words and phrases that I have been using for 20 years . " The general line from Ukip about its recent electoral wipeout is that if the Conservatives beat Ukip , it 's only because the ruling party now effectively is Ukip . So perhaps their work is done . Less remarked on is the fact that May is playing the exact same game with the Labour left . Corbyn insiders note with dismay how they regularly see their best ideas , initiatives and slogans passed over in the media when they announce them , only to be solemnly read out a few weeks later in May 's next big speech -- and greeted with near-universal acclaim . Since late 2015 , for instance , Jeremy Corbyn has been calling for a national industrial strategy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to support key technological sectors either been written off as outdated Soviet-style thinking or simply ignored . Then in January this year May announced her government would be adopting a " modern industrial strategy ... that will be underpinned by a new approach , a new active role for government " -- basically , exactly the same policy -- and was instantly celebrated for her refreshing ability to think outside the box . During May 's speech last Wednesday , she managed to read off variations on both the Labour campaign slogan ( for the many , " not the privileged few " ) , and the shadow chancellor John McDonnell 's own signature tagline -- a prosperous country , but " a country where prosperity and security is shared by all " -- in each case , as if she 'd made the phrases up herself . In the case of pilfered Labour policies , it 's obvious the Conservatives do n't mean a word of it -- almost immediately after the industrial strategy speech , May sat blithely by , refusing to lift a finger @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ But as we learned after the prime minister 's catastrophic 2 May dinner with Jean-Claude Juncker , she never really meant what she said about Brexit either . Frantic Tory spin-doctoring is now rewriting the story of what happened that evening as the story of One Tough Lady against the Eurocrats , but if one looks at the actual text of the German news story that set off the brouhaha , it 's clear May started out by trying to bond with Juncker by cheerfully explaining she was playing the Brexiters for fools . It 'll be just like protocol 36 , she offered : remember , when the UK made a big fanfare out of withdrawing from the Lisbon treaty , then , as soon as no one was paying attention , quietly enacted most of its provisions back into law ? The fireworks only began when Juncker explained with Brexit this would not be possible . In the case of EU negotiations , such thoughtless rabble-rousing might well lead to a train wreck of historic proportions -- the combination of nationalist posturing and half-understood treaty obligations bear @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ first world war . Read more But in the case of May , what 's revealing is that her first impulse was to publicly declare whatever she thought would play best with swing voters -- in this case , to preach the hardest of hard Brexits -- then try to see if she could get away with proceeding as if she 'd never said it at all . How do we explain this behaviour ? As a social scientist , I was taught that rather than try to stare into the actor 's soul ( souls are complicated ) , it is better to try to determine a set of principles that will accurately predict what that actor will do in a given circumstance . The simplest set is always preferable . ( This is why economists pretend people are motivated solely by greed . They do n't really think people are motivated solely by greed . They just want to see how much human behaviour can be explained @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ way , I have found the actions of a Conservative politician can be predicted with near-total accuracy by positing just two principles : 1 . A Tory politician will do whatever will keep wealth and power flowing upwards to those who already have it . 2 . A Tory politician will say or do whatever it takes to retain power , provided it does not interfere with 1 . Differences between Cameron and May were largely stylistic : Cameron was basically a PR man , May is a career bureaucrat and political infighter , whose handlers are now faced with the unenviable task of creating a personality cult around a figure almost entirely lacking in human qualities . Their solution is to take advantage of her even more dramatic lack of anything resembling a moral centre . She just takes her rivals ' best ideas and holds them up like glittering prizes , in the way an innocent three-year-old might say , " Look at what I found ! " Since she knows that even if she tosses the bauble away a month or two later , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her on it . As Machiavelli long ago pointed out : if you raise taxes , then lower them , by the time you 've done the second , chances are no one will even remember you did the first . Where most Tories can merely be counted on to act like cynics , there is reason to believe May actually is one . There is a certain purity , even innocence , in this . But it means you ca n't believe a word of what she says . |

The sentence 'Whatever the merits of the case, we should be grateful to the claimants -- thousands of ordinary men and women -- who have finally forced Goodwin out of hiding.' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Here, 'the claimants' (NP subject) 'forced' (V1) 'Goodwin' (NP object) 'out of hiding' (VP2[-ing] predicate). This induces a movement/extraction interpretation, where the claimants caused Goodwin to move out of hiding by means of forcing. The verb 'forced' falls under the category of exerting force or pressure (2b), and the NP object 'Goodwin' is a causee participating in the event described by 'hiding'. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Goodwin has spent the past seven years hiding from a public still furious that his dreadful calls helped bring the economy to its knees ( Source : Getty ) Vince Cable I have always thought Fred Goodwin should see the inside of the courtroom . A lot of public cynicism about government , regulators and -- especially -- bankers stems from the fact that those who did the most to cause the financial crash seemingly got away scot-free . But Goodwin will at last take the witness stand on 8 June . For most of the nation , that date stands out as General Election polling day . Goodwin will remember it as the day he was cross-examined over his disastrous leadership of Royal Bank of Scotland . Goodwin , alongside RBS itself and several other former executives at the bank , are defendants in a case brought against them by 9,000 retail investors , including many current RBS employees . The trial starts in less than two weeks ( 22 May @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the opening remarks . The claimants allege they were wilfully misled over the true financial woes of RBS during the ? 12bn rights issue of 2008 , which was supposed to stabilise the bank . Within months , RBS had to be rescued by the government , which spent ? 45.5bn of taxpayer money to stop it from collapsing . RBS ' current chief executive , Ross McEwan , will no doubt face his own questions about this embarrassing case at the bank 's AGM today . He must wonder how it has come to this . Although RBS settled with most of the original claimants without accepting liability , the preamble to this trial been drawn out for years . There has been plenty of time to make sure RBS ' inglorious past is not trailed over so publicly and in such excruciating detail . Shareholders small and large lost a fortune . The retail investors fighting this action are joined by several large US institutions , such as Wells Fargo and the Boeing pension fund , and local authority pension schemes including the London Borough of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the past seven years hiding from a public still furious that his dreadful calls -- notably the 2007 purchase of Dutch bank ABN Amro -- helped bring Britain 's economy to its knees . He left RBS in 2009 and was later stripped of his knighthood . But he has never been properly taken to task for his failures . This is ironic given he would surely never have been so lenient on his own enemies , reportedly keeping " Fred 's black book " filled with names of executives who had angered him . He could n't tolerate alleged failures by his own staff , berating them for using Sellotape or offering him the wrong type of biscuit . In exile , he has had a ? 342,500 RBS pension to keep him company . The bank is still 72 per cent-owned by the government , so the taxpayer is funding his lifestyle . What 's more , we 're funding most of Goodwin 's defence . The legal bill for Goodwin and his fellow accused executives was estimated at ? 6.5m last year , with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ spent more than ? 125m on this case when the trial ends later this year -- one of the biggest fees in British legal history . As I have noted before , this expenditure is obscene . The Treasury , as majority shareholder , should have intervened . Chancellor Philip Hammond and McEwan must both now wonder whether that money would have been better invested in a settlement . The claimants are seeking ? 700m , including interest , and have understandably turned their noses up at offers amounting to barely 20 per cent of this claim . Hammond has already signalled the public will make multi-billion-pound losses when the state finally sells its shares in RBS at a far lower price than it paid in 2008 's bailout . " We have to live in the real world , " he has argued . Yet RBS 's share price could well slide even further once Goodwin takes the stand . Legal papers already filed suggest he will be grilled over any number of internal warnings about the bank 's dire financial position and corrosive culture pre-crash @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Whatever the merits of the case , we should be grateful to the claimants -- thousands of ordinary men and women -- who have finally forced Goodwin out of hiding . But for RBS 's own sake , this trial could and should have been avoided .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'pull out of' in a different context where 'launching the party's first campaign poster' is an event, not a VP2[-ing] predicate with a causee. There is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations of the transitive out of -ing construction.

All the latest coverage of the general election campaign before voters head to the polls on 8 June Jeremy Corbyn is holding a meeting on Labour 's manifesto today And that 's it for today . We 'll resume our coverage of the general election tomorrow . Jeremy Corbyn has released a statement after Labour agreed the final draft of its election manifesto . He said : " We 've just concluded our joint meeting of the shadow cabinet and the national executive and we 've discussed our manifesto for the general election . We 've just unanimously agreed the contents of it . We 've amended the draft document that was put forward in the most informed , interesting , sensible discussion and debate in our party . And we 'll present this manifesto to the British people in the next few days . " Our manifesto will be an offer and we believe the policies in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the lives of many people in our society , and ensure that we have a government in Britain on June 8 that will work for the many , not the few , and give everyone in our society a decent opportunity and a decent chance , so nobody 's ignored , nobody 's forgotten , and nobody 's left behind . " The details will be published in the next few days . The details will be set out to you , including the costings of all the pledges and promises that we make . And I know that you 're all looking forward to reading it in great detail at that time . And at that point you will be able to ask all the questions you like . But for today , thank you all very much for coming . " Labour has agreed the contents of the final draft of its election manifesto . Jeremy Corbyn said the draft has been amended after a sensible discussion and includes policies that will " work for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ No one will be ignored or forgotten , " he said . The full details will be set up in the next few days , he said . Prime Minister Theresa May has said the leak of Labour 's draft manifesto is " pretty shambolic and shows the chaos we would see from a Labour government " . She told Channel 4 the polices would be sending us back to the past and repeated that she was committed to " building a better future , that 's why we need strong and stable leadership " . Former Prime Minister Gordon Brown said Theresa May can not fight the election on the single issue of Brown , asking what her policies are on security , defence , public services , the NHS , education and inequality . Speaking at Coventry University , he also said the UK needs tariff-free access to the EU otherwise the British car making industry risks being @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? 2,000- ? 3,000. Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell has rejected claims that Labour 's manifesto was similar to the party 's former leader , Michael Foot , in 1983 . A BBC reporter approached McDonnell about the claims as he was leaving his home this morning . " This is an extremely modern , progressive set of proposals , " McDonnell insisted . " And it is looking to the long term future . And most people are extremely excited at what they 've seen . " On Labour 's plans to return railways to public ownership , he said : " In terms of railways , I just say a lot of foreign countries now actually own our railway system , a lot of of foreign companies who are then ploughing those profits back into their own railway system . It seems a bit odd that we are subsidising German Deutsche Bahn , for example . " He told @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , including plans to raise the minimum wage and end zero-hour contracts . " If the British electorate can only look at that rather than the obsession that you people have about the leadership of the Labour Party , " he said . McCluskey added that plans to nationalise railways as the " most popular policy out there " . Labour 's leaked election manifesto revealed plans to increase the state pension age after 66 and to maintain the triple lock that determines how much income pensioners receive from the government . The manifesto also includes a policy to protect pensions for UK citizens living overseas and extending the pension credit to compensate women born in the 1950s who have seen their state pension age rise . Nathan Long , Senior pensions analyst at Hargreaves Lansdown , said : " We already know the planned increases were due to save the government ? 30bn , so unwinding these will be very expensive . Plans to stop future tinkering impacting on accrued state pension may be appealing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ probably best avoided . " It is curious that they plan a new review of state pension specifically looking at the challenges of the population having a wide range of life expectancy . John Cridland has only recently conducted a review of state pension that looked at exactly these issues , presumably this was not sufficient . " Saving for retirement is somewhat absent , meaning we are unsure as to what the plans are for workplace pensions and whether crucially , the self-employed will be included in the auto-enrolment program that ensures people are automatically joined to a pension plan . We have already seen plans to tax those earning over ? 80,000 which could easily see a further limiting to tax relief for those impacted . " A draft of Labour 's general election manifesto has been leaked , prompting leader Jeremy Corbyn to pull out of launching the party 's first campaign poster . Corbyn was scheduled to unveil the posted on London 's South Bank this morning but he has now been replaced by Labour 's election co-ordinators Andrew Gwynne and Ian @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for a meeting to go through the manifesto in detail and agree a final draft . The meeting begins at noon . The manifesto showed reforms included radical plans to take parts of Britain 's energy industry back into public ownership alongside the railways and the Royal Mail . Labour 's elections chief , Andrew Gwynne , told the BBC Radio 4 's Today programme the leak was " not ideal " but had given the party such much-needed publicity . " It 's not the exactly the morning I 'd planned , " he said . " On the plus side , we are all talking about the Labour party this morning and visions of how this country can be better . This is a draft version , there may well be changes . " Labour leader 's office say ' no witch hunt ' over leaks , saying they are ' pleased ' it 's out there |

Antonio Conte 's side knew that a win would give them an unassailable 10-point lead over Tottenham Hotspur , but they struggled to break down a stubborn West Brom defence . However , Michy Batshuayi became the unlikely hero for Chelsea with eight minutes remaining , turning the ball home from close range to claim the title-winning goal . Find out how all of the action unfolded courtesy of Sports Mole 's minute-by-minute updates below . Sort : Newest Oldest 7pmGood evening ! Thank you very much for joining Sports Mole for what could be another memorable night in the history of Chelsea Football Club as they look to wrap up the 2016-17 Premier League title with victory over West Bromwich Albion at The Hawthorns ! All eyes will be on Antonio Conte 's side tonight , who need only a win to clinch the trophy , but West Brom have enjoyed a fine campaign themselves and will not roll over tonight . It promises to be an intriguing contest , and one which could end in party time for the visitors from London . First , though , let 's have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we make of those two sides , then ? Well , the headline news as far as the home side are concerned is that Jonny Evans is passed fit to start this evening following concerns over the ankle injury he picked up against Burnley . The former Manchester United man once again partners the veteran Gareth McAuley at the heart of the West Bromwich Albion defence , while Dawson will also tuck in from the right in order to protect that Baggies box . 7.08pmThere is one change at the back as Allan Nyom returns to the starting XI in place of Wilson , who drops to the bench to accommodate the former Watford man . Aside from that it is an entirely unchanged side named by Tony Pulis from their 2-2 draw with Burnley last time out , though , with Ben Foster continuing between the sticks as part of that . Chris Brunt , meanwhile , maintains his somewhat unfamiliar position on the right side of midfield . 7.10pmThe main goal threat for the Baggies tonight should come from Salomon Rondon , who finally ended his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ striker had not found the back of the net in the Premier League since mid-December , when he scored a hat-trick against Swansea City , before scoring an equalising goal at Turf Moor on Saturday . Pulis will be keen for him to keep those scoring boots on if his side are to wrap up a top-half finish this season . 7.12pmThere is also notably a second consecutive start for 19-year-old Sam Field tonight as he beats off competition from the likes of Morrison and Chadli to keep his place in the side . It is only the youngster 's fourth Premier League start ever , and it comes against a team gunning for the title , so this will be a very interesting test for him tonight . At the other end of the experience scale is Darren Fletcher , who alongside Livermore will be looking to limit the influence of that Chelsea midfield tonight . 7.14pmCesc Fabregas in particular was influential during Monday night 's 3-0 win over Middlesbrough , pulling the strings from midfield and helping himself to two more assists along the way . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and it speaks volumes for how impressive he was on Monday night that he keeps N'Golo Kante out of the team . Kante missed Monday 's game with a thigh injury and sits out again tonight despite the PFA and FWA player of the year being fit to feature . 7.16pmIndeed , it is an unchanged side all round from Chelsea boss Antonio Conte as he sticks with a winning formula . That means that Diego Costa leads the line once again , with the Spain international needing just one more goal to better his personal single-season scoring record in the Premier League . Monday 's goal against Boro was his 20th of the season , equalling his tally for a couple of seasons ago , and he will be confident of adding to that this evening having scored in three of his five league games against West Brom . 7.18pmEden Hazard was strangely subdued considering how much Chelsea dominated against Middlesbrough , but he still managed to show flashes of his brilliance and he could be the key to unlocking this West Brom defence tonight . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has to make do with a place on the bench , while Matic will hope of add to the attacking threat once again having capped off the scoring against Boro on Monday night . Alonso was once again on the scoresheet in that game too , proving that this Chelsea team have goals from back to front . 7.20pmCahill is another who has weighed in with some important strikes this season , and he captains the side again tonight in an unchanged back three . That formation will be the defining aspect of Chelsea 's season , and it ill be interesting to see whether Cahill lifts the trophy with club captain John Terry should Chelsea win tonight . I suspect Terry would get the honours himself despite playing only a bit-part role at most this term , if only because it will be his final season at the club . Victory tonight , or indeed in any of Chelsea 's last three games , will see Terry become the first non-Manchester United player to win the Premier League five times . 7.22pmChelsea must first get the job @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ foregone conclusion now , whether they manage it tonight is a different matter . The visitors are favourites to get the job done here , but West Bromwich Albion are rarely an easy team to face and Tony Pulis has built a career out of making his teams tough to beat . The Baggies also have a bit more than just pride to fight for during the closing stages of the season as they look to avoid throwing away much of the hard work they have put in up to this point . 7.24pmWest Brom have kept themselves safely away from any relegation drama throughout the season , which is something that should be regarded as a success in itself . However , despite having occupied that eighth place for a long time now , the Baggies could be in danger of slipping down into the bottom half if their form does n't improve before the end of the campaign . They could still finish as low as 15th in the table , which would be difficult to take for Pulis considering how long his side have been flying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the table in the closing few weeks is n't enough to spark West Brom back into life then the challenge of breaking new ground may be . The Baggies need five points from their final three games to eclipse their club-record Premier League points tally of 49 , which was set in the 2012-13 campaign . They also finished eighth on that occasion , which is their highest top-flight finish since 1980-81 , when they ended the campaign fourth in the standings . 7.28pmFive points from games against Chelsea , Manchester City and Swansea is a difficult ask , though , particularly considering all three of those opponents look like having something major to fight for in those games . West Brom come into tonight 's match having failed to win any of their last six matches , posting the league 's worst record since the start of April having picked up only two points from the last 18 on offer . The Baggies have drawn two and lost four since their 3-1 win over Arsenal on March 18 and had failed to even score in five consecutive games @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 7.30pmIt is nothing new for West Brom to take their foot off the pedal a little bit at this stage of a season , though . They also tailed off at the end of the previous campaign , going on a nine-match winless streak on that occasion - something they could match with no victories in their final three games this term . That was the last time they had such a long winless run , although it should also be noted that they have already surpassed last season 's points tally and are four points and five places better off than they were at the same stage of the 2015-16 campaign . 7.32pmAn alarming statistic for Tony Pulis will be his own record once his side 's have reached the 40-point mark , and it is perhaps evidence that the Welshman can only take a club so far . There is no doubting his ability to steer a club to safety , but of the 44 Premier League games he has overseen after his side have surpassed the 40-point mark , he has won just six of them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ games of the season will hand him his highest ever Premier League points tally , though , overtaking the 47-point haul he achieved with Stoke in 2010 . 7.34pmWest Brom have lost four of their last five Premier League home games , though , which is more than they lost in their previous 14 before that - 13 of which came this season . They have failed to score in each of those defeats too , including a run of three consecutive 1-0 defeats heading into this match . Another loss tonight would see them fall to four home top-flight defeats in a row for the first time since April 2006 , and it would equal their club record of going four top-flight home games without a goal , set in 2004-05 . 7.36pmIt seems to be as good a time as any to play the Baggies , then , but Antonio Conte will not be allowing his side to get carried away with themselves just yet . The Italian , in addition to his many other attributes , has been very good at keep his side focused @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bounce back from the rare poor results they have had this season . A blip in April threatened to put the pressure on after they lost twice in the space of four games , but Chelsea have since strung together four straight wins and scored at least three goals in each of them . That is how you respond to pressure . 7.38pmTottenham Hotspur 's 1-0 defeat to West Ham United a week ago today opened the door for Chelsea to wrap up the title before their London rivals kicked another ball , and a 3-0 win over Middlesbrough on Monday took them to the brink of glory . That means that they only need a win tonight - or in any of their final three games of the season - to move into an unassailable lead at the top of the table . Chelsea may take some lessons from Brighton also squandering a seven-point lead with three games left in the Championship this season , but the Seagulls had achieved promotion and took their foot off the pedal - for Chelsea this is the only target that matters @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ title - and it looks to be a formality now - then they can start turning their attention to the FA Cup as Conte looks to mark his first season in English football with a double . He is already set to become only the fourth manager to win the Premier League during his first season in England , following in the footsteps of Mourinho , Ancelotti and Pellegrini , while on a personal note it would be his fourth consecutive league title in domestic football having won three in a row with Juventus before enjoying a spell with Italy . 7.42pmConte is set to continue Italy 's recent dominance of the Premier League title too . He would be the fourth Italian manager to lift the trophy in the last seven years after Ancelotti , Mancini and Ranieri before him . As a club it would be Chelsea 's sixth top-flight title , five of which have come since Roman Abramovich 's arrival . Their surely imminent tally of five crowns is second only to Manchester United , who are also the only team to be able to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ years . 7.44pmIs there any chance that Chelsea will not clinch the title this evening ? Well , with any Tony Pulis side there is a question mark , but the fact that this match comes away from home is unlikely to affect Chelsea at all . They have the best away record in the Premier League this season and a victory would not only wrap up the title , it would also see them finish on 42 away points from the campaign - the highest total since Manchester United reached the same figure in 2011-12 . Indeed , it is that away form which has ultimately separated them from Spurs , who have amassed 12 fewer points on their travels . 7.46pmChelsea have won five of their last six away games in all competitions and have only lost one of their last nine , while their only league defeats on the road all season have come against teams currently in the top six . They recorded a hugely impressive 3-0 win at Goodison Park in their most recent away outing - a result which also ended a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over Middlesbrough means that they now have back-to-back clean sheets , and another tonight would give them three in a row for the first time in 2017 . 7.48pmAt the risk of getting ahead of myself , it will be interesting to see how Chelsea perform in their final two games if they do win the title this evening . Conte does n't seem like a man to accept anything less than 100% , regardless of the situation , and Chelsea do still have the tempting proposition of becoming the second-best team in Premier League history in terms of points . They are on track to record 93 for the season , a tally which only Jose Mourinho 's class of 2004-05 can better . Chelsea have already surpassed Leicester 's title-winning points tally from last season , while they are a whopping 36 points better off than they were at the same stage of the 2015-16 campaign . 7.50pmPREDICTION : Right , we 're 10 minutes away from kickoff at The Hawthorns , which means that it is time for a prediction ! At any other point @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a point here , but they have been poor in recent weeks and Chelsea arrive in the Midlands just one win short of their goal . There are unlikely to be any nerves in a Chelsea team where almost every member has already won the title , so I can see the visitors getting the job done tonight . I will go for a 2-0 away victory ! 7.52pmThe Baggies actually have a decent home record against Chelsea down the years , with three wins from their last five Premier League meetings here at The Hawthorns . That comes after Chelsea won their first five Premier League visits between 2003 and 2011 , and Chelsea have not managed back-to-back wins over the Baggies home and away in their last 10 attempts following the end of a 13-match winning streak . Indeed , victory tonight would mark the first time in six seasons that they have done the league double over West Brom . 7.54pmChelsea have lost just one of their last eight league games against West Brom , though , with four wins and three draws in that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ - 3-0 in May 2015 - but it did also come after Chelsea had already won that year 's title . One thing we are almost assured of tonight is goals - there has not been a 0-0 draw in the the last 89 top-flight editions of this fixture stretching all the way back to 1924 . 7.56pmThe corresponding fixture last term was an entertaining affair , with Chelsea eventually running out 3-2 winners courtesy of goals from Pedro , Costa and Azpilicueta . It was a far from convincing performance from the Blues , though , and West Brom arguably deserved more than the two Morrison goals they got in reply . The reverse fixture this term was also decided by one goal , with Diego Costa strike proving enough for Chelsea to claim all three points . 7.58pmRight , the players are out and we 're just about ready to go here ! Nine months has built up to this moment for Chelsea , can they complete the job tonight ? 1 minKICKOFF : Here we go then ! West Brom get us underway at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the title ! 1 minSAVE ! Courtois is forced into a save after less than 30 seconds as Fletcher lifts an aerial ball into the box which Rondon gets a really good header to . It is probably going over , but Courtois takes no chances and just tips it over the top . 3 minAs you might expect , the Chelsea fans are in fine voice tonight . Reports have suggested that some of them may have paid over ? 1,000 to be here to watch their side lift the trophy , and they are looking to make the most of it . 5 minHalf a chance for Chelsea as Fabregas floats a ball forward for Pedro in the box . Foster finds himself in no-man 's land and a better connection from Pedro may have seen it loop over the keeper , but it was a difficult one and ultimately it came to nothing . 7 minA sub-plot to this game could be a remarkable and surely unique hat-trick for Hazard . His goals have secured the last two Premier League titles - for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if he scores the winning goal tonight then it would be three on the bounce for the Belgian . 8 minFabregas swings a free kick to the back post which Cahill busts a gut to get to , but he ca n't hook the ball back into a dangerous area and it goes straight behind for a goal kick . 10 minSHOT ! Chelsea are camped inside the West Brom half at the moment . They work the ball patiently until finally picking out Pedro in a bit of space just outside the box , but the Spaniard 's subsequent effort flies well over the crossbar . 11 minNice link-up play between Hazard and Costa in and around the Baggies box as the latter slides a pass through to Hazard down the right channel . The winger gets to it first , but his cross is easy for Foster to claim in the middle . 13 minChelsea want a handball against Brunt , but only a corner is given . That comes to nothing , and suddenly West Brom have a break on with two against @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a long way , but his final ball towards Rondon is poor and the attack breaks down . 15 minChelsea have dominated possession in this opening 15 minutes as look nice and sharp at the moment . They have a free kick in a good crossing position here ... 16 minSHOT ! Everyone is expecting a floated ball into the box from Fabregas , but instead he plays a low pass across the edge of the area for Pedro . The former Barcelona man looks a little surprised at first , but he reacts quickly and fires a deflected effort a couple of yards wide . 18 minAnother Chelsea corner comes to nothing , and once again West Brom are quick to break . McClean is again the man driving forward and he cuts inside past Moses , but once again his pass is not good enough and Chelsea eventually clear their lines . 20 minYELLOW CARD ! McClean picks up the first booking of the night for a challenge on Moses right on the right side of the penalty area . Another chance for Chelsea @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ minThe ball falls to Cahill at the back post , but Dawson is quick to react and launches himself in the way of the Chelsea skipper 's shot . The visitors are racking up the corners in this first half ! 23 minChelsea have had more than 70% possession in this first half so far , but West Brom seem content enough to let them have it . Their game plan seems to be to hit Chelsea on the break whenever possible . 24 minMuted appeals for a penalty from Chelsea as Hazard goes down under the challenge of Evans , and I must say I 'm surprised there were n't more vociferous shouts . It was very clumsy from Evans , who got the wrong side of his man , although the replays show that the referee did , in fact , make the right decision . 25 minSAVE ! Routine save for Foster to make as Azpilicueta goes for goal from outside the area with a tame effort that rolls into the arms of the Baggies keeper . 27 minNyom dives in on Hazard @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the box , but Michael Oliver waves away any claims for a free kick . West Brom eventually kick the ball out , which the fans are n't happy with as Hazard gets back to his feet immediately afterwards . 29 minTony Pulis will be relatively content with how his side have played in the opening half an hour of this match . They have been without the ball for much of the game so far , but Foster has not really tested yet . 31 minMcClean is growing increasingly frustrated as he gets penalised for a foul almost identical to the one that earned him a yellow card not long ago . Yet another free kick for the visitors . 32 minCLOSE ! Almost the opening goal for the visitors as Fabregas finds space just outside the area . The Spaniard flashes a low strike across goal , but it skims just past the far post and wide . 34 minUPDATE : There is another game taking place in the Premier League tonight , with Everton hosting Watford at Goodison Park . That one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 36 minYELLOW CARD ! Field is the second player in the book tonight for a sliding challenge from behind on Hazard . He was going for the ball , but just could n't reach it . 37 minSHOT ! This is probably Chelsea best chance of the match so far , but it is n't exactly a clear one . Pedro collects the ball really well just inside the West Brom box , allowing it to run across his body to create space for a shot . He tries to bury his finish into the corner , but his strike flies a couple of yards wide of the far post . 39 minNyom swings a cross into the box which Rondon is almost able to take down with his back to goal , but in the end his touch only takes the ball away from teammates coming in behind him . 41 minThe biggest cheer of the night so far greets ... a West Brom throw-in . These fans do n't feel as though they have got the rub of the green from Michael Oliver tonight @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 43 minWest Brom only have a couple more minutes to see out before half time , and that would be a job well done if they manage that . Chelsea have had a degree of control over this one , but they just have n't broken through this West Brom defence . 44 minEvans produces a bizarre handball on the ground which goes unpunished by Michael Oliver , and moments later he finds himself defending against Costa in the box . The Chelsea striker collects the ball with his back to goal , but his eventual shot on the turn is never troubling Foster . 45+1 minThere will be a minimum of one minute added time at the end of this first half . 8.58pmIt has n't quite been the party many might have expect so far tonight . The champions-elect Chelsea go into half time still locked at 0-0 having failed to really lay a glove on a stubborn West Brom defence . The hosts will be pleased with their performance so far , and the visitors will need to step things up in the second @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 9pmThe closest we have come to a goal so far arrived shortly after the half-hour mark when Cesc Fabregas found a bit of space just outside the area before drilling a low strike narrowly wide of the far post . The best chance arrived five minutes later , but it was still not a clear one as Pedro created a yard of space for himself to shoot before firing his effort wide of the target , The Spaniard was looking to pick out the far corner , but just sent it a few yards wide . 9.02pmThere was only one shot on target in that opening 45 minutes , and even that was nothing of particular note as Cesar Azpilicueta 's tame effort was easily collected by Foster . For West Brom 's part they have threatened on a couple of occasions with quick counter-attacks , but Tony Pulis will be demanding better deliveries from wide areas having wasted a number of good crossing opportunities tonight . Rondon has come closest to an opening goal for the hosts , with his header inside 30 seconds forcing a save @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ again , then ! Chelsea get us back underway for the second half at The Hawthorns ! 47 minUPDATE : There has been a goal in the other Premier League game tonight , with Ross Barkley giving Everton the lead against Watford at Goodison Park . 47 minSAVE ! Better from Chelsea as they make a quicker start to this second half , and it takes a fine low stop from Foster to deny them the opening goal . Moses manages to squeeze a shot through the tackle of McClean and Foster gets his fingertips to it to push it past the post . 48 minSAVE ! Another save for Foster to make in the opening stages of this second half , but this one is more routine . Costa tries a mini-bicycle kick from inside the area , but he does n't catch it perfectly and it is comfortable for the keeper . 50 minIt has been an ominous start to this second half for Chelsea , who are suddenly playing with a lot more intensity . They have already tested Foster more in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ throughout the whole first half . 51 minCLOSE ! Chelsea build another attack and the ball eventually falls to Fabregas , who tries a first-time effort from range . He deliberately slices across the ball , but his strike swerves just past the far post . 52 minWEST BROM SUB : The hosts make an early change in this second half as Claudio Yacob replaces Field . 53 minCHANCES ! Chance for Chelsea again here as Costa chests the ball into the path of Hazard , who collects it on the left side of the area . He turns down the shot and instead tries to pull it back into the middle , which Dawson prods towards his own goal . He is fortunate that it hits a defender on the line and West Brom eventually scramble it behind for a corner . That corner comes to the feet of Moses , whose powerful strike is straight at Foster . 55 minDespite Chelsea 's dominance in the first half it was difficult to see where a goal would come from considering their lack of penetration through @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ story since the restart , though , and it is looking increasingly like a matter of time before they make that breakthrough . 56 minChelsea win another free kick in a good crossing position , but for once Fabregas 's delivery lets him down as he chips the ball to no-one at the back post . 58 minThere have been a lot of occasions tonight where a Chelsea player - usually Hazard - has gone down fairly easily and the visitors have been awarded a free kick . It is fair to say that neither Hazard nor Michael Oliver are the most popular figures at The Hawthorns right now . 59 minWEST BROM SUB : The hosts make their second change of the night as McClean - on a yellow card - departs to be replaced by Nacer Chadli . 61 minCosta goes down in the area following a challenge from Yacob and he stays down too , asking for a penalty from the ref . Michael Oliver is having none of it , though , and West Brom win a free kick seconds later to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over the last couple of minutes and it looks like he will be forced off here . 64 minWEST BROM SUB : Sure enough , there is the Baggies ' third and final change as Marc Wilson replaces McAuley . 66 minWest Brom have just started to get themselves out of their own half a bit more in the last couple of minutes . They have been penned back for the most part but have probably seen as much of the ball in the Chelsea half during the last two or three minutes as they had in the whole second half before that . 68 minWe 're almost into the final 20 minutes now , and still Chelsea have not found a way through this West Brom defence . Perhaps they may be made to wait until Monday night after all . 69 minHazard has again been below his best tonight , and he fires an ambitious effort a long way off target to sum up his night , which has mainly been spent getting fouled so far . 70 minCHANCE ! Chance for West @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to Rondon on the halfway line finds the Baggies striker one on one with Luiz . He beats the Chelsea defender easily and races into the green grass in front of him , but he lacks the pace to get away from Azpilicueta who makes a crucial challenge to put Rondon off . 71 minYELLOW CARD ! Wilson is the latest player in the book for a cynical challenge on Moses to prevent an attack . 73 minCHANCE ! Another big chance for West Brom to throw a spanner in the works ! Again Chelsea are left exposed at the back having poured men forward in search of the opener , with Livermore the man in an advanced position this time . He holds the ball up before playing in Chadli , but the former Tottenham man puts his finish wide when he should have done better . 75 minWe could be in for an entertaining final 15 minutes here ! Chelsea clearly want to get the job done tonight as Azpilicueta blazes a poor effort well over , but in doing so they are leaving space @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is a statement from Antonio Conte . He hooks Hazard off following another underpar display from the Belgian , with Willian coming on in his place . Pedro also makes way for Michy Batshuayi . 78 minWell , I said earlier that it feels like a matter of time before Chelsea score , but that has changed tonight . West Brom are enjoying their best spell of the game so far and in the last 25 minutes they have looked most like scoring with those two quick breaks . 80 minPulis will be delighted if his side come away with a point here , but he will not be happy with his side 's delivery from set pieces tonight . They have scored more goals than any other team from corners this season , but they have wasted all of theirs tonight . 82 minChelsea finally have the breakthrough ! It could be the goal which wins them the Premier League title , and would n't you know that it is Michy Batshuayi - comfortably second choice all season - who gets it . It is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ! Cahill 's sliced strike falls into the path of Azpilicueta , who is able to turn it back into the middle . Batshuayi is there unmarked to sweep home from close range and send the Chelsea players , staff and fans in raptures . 84 minBatshuayi has n't had many chances this season , but that goal will be shown over and over again in Chelsea 's history if it proves to be enough , The Blues are just six minutes short of being crown Premier League champions ! 86 minCHELSEA SUB : Chelsea make their third and final change as Kurt Zouma replaces Moses . 88 minThere are a couple of fans who have run onto the pitch , delaying the end of the match here . 90 minThere will be a minimum of FIVE minutes added time at the end of this match ! 10pmHuge scenes of celebration from the Chelsea fans and players on the pitch as their Premier League title is confirmed ! Fabregas is this year 's player to swear live in the post-match interview - someone has to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his players behind them . Jubilant scenes . 10.02pmHazard is now being thrown up into the air by his teammates , and there is no doubt that he has played as big a part as any in this season 's campaign despite going off the boil a little in the last couple of games . 10.04pmThe hero of the hour Michy Batshuayi is next on camera , with Belgian compatriot Thibaut Courtois acting as translator as tonight 's match winner and the title winner declares this as the best day in his footballing career . 10.05pmAnd there is the team slide in front of the fans ! No title celebration would be complete without it ! 10.07pmREACTION ! Here is the censored version of Fabregas ; s post-match interview on Sky Sports News : " I thought it was going to be one of those days . We had so many chances in the first half and then we got a bit nervous . The beauty of football , a player who did n't play a lot scores the winning goal for the championship . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the field tonight , but he will still pick up his fifth Premier League title - the most of any non-Manchester United player . Here is what he had to say at the final whistle : " These boys have been on the field doing it week in week out . It 's been a delight to sit and watch , a different perspective . The togetherness was shown from day one . " 10.12pmREACTION ! Terry may still be the club captain , but Gary Cahill has led this team on the pitch brilliantly all season and will deserve to get his hands on that trophy . Here is his reaction : " You have to cherish these moments , you work so hard all season to be where we are . Consistently we have been the best team in the league . There is no better feeling in football . People have written us off as a team and individually and this has shut them up . We are champions . It 's another one in the cabinet . " 10.13pmThose Chelsea fans are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ every second of these celebrations , and the players are more than happy to oblige . 10.15pmThey may not be going anywhere , but we are . That is all we have time for this evening , so thank you very much for joining Sports Mole for tonight 's match as Chelsea wrap up the Premier League title with a 1-0 victory over West Bromwich Albion . I will leave you with our match report , and be sure to stay tuned for reaction , which is already beginning to filter through . From me , though , it is goodbye for now ! |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes making something (a statistical game) out of an activity (dating), which is not consistent with the construction's properties.

I am a math nerd . " A maths nerd , " my partner corrects me , because we live in London now . Fine . I love puzzles and formulae and bullet-pointed plans . I 've spent many a winter morning with a steaming cup of tea and an Excel file . I do n't often make major forecasting errors , but I 'm in the middle of my life 's biggest miscalculation . Until I was eight , in 1987 , I lived in Isfahan , Iran , in a big , warm family of science and maths types . I had a bike and a best friend and my own calculator . I loved a boy named Ali Mansouri . But then my mother was jailed for converting to Christianity and , when she was temporarily released , we had to escape Iran . Before you could calculate the probability of losing every toy and friend and photo , it was gone , favourite calculator and all . We were in a refugee hostel in Dubai and then in Rome . And then two years had passed and I was the foreign kid in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : English , Oklahoma history , the topography of who knows what . But one subject had n't changed ; in fact , in this one area , I was ahead of everyone else . In maths , I shone . I could do a sheet of 100 multiplications in less than a minute . At 12 , when I started to feel our poverty , I asked my mother how much money an average person needed not to stay awake all night , punching my calculator . She said , flatly , $5,000 a month . Sixty thousand a year , I thought . I went to a library and looked at average income levels . I learned that to make that much right out of college , I had to get into an east coast university ( I had yet to learn about the regional cost of living ) . Screw this life , I thought . I 'm going to live comfortably . I had the grades , but back then it was n't so marketable to be an Iranian refugee : even trying felt like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sports . I needed a national championship . I calculated the probability of winning trophies in the sports I loved : tennis and swimming . Other girls loved those , too . Wealthy Oklahoma suburbs were teeming with country-club girls who had way more practice and nicer rackets than me . I needed a sport that bent to my juvenile analytics : a sport with trophies handed out by weight levels , age levels , belt levels . A sport that did n't attract rich girls with trainers . So I signed up for taekwondo . I dropped 20lb , put in five hours of practice a day alongside the boys . I counted calories , fat grams , the hours on the Stairmaster . At 13% body fat , I stopped menstruating and won a national championship . At Princeton , I decided to find a boyfriend . I had never had one , never been kissed , never had sex . I made a secret chart of the boys I knew . I quickly threw it away , ashamed of myself . I hated the entitled @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ kid -- the probability of poverty was too high . I was planning to go into finance or consulting , so I joined a business organisation and met an awkward boy with a kind heart who loved my OCD and the way I counted on my fingers . He was n't hungry like me ; he was enjoying his life . So I gave him some of my hunger , that missing ingredient , and he thrived . We married and bought a canal house in Amsterdam . He grew handsome and ambitious . He had rows of wooden shoe racks and the most beautiful suits . I followed the numbers to New York , to McKinsey & Co , and he came , too . My life was perfect on paper , an immigrant girl 's fantasy : the midtown consulting job , the apartment , the husband . We made way more than $5,000 a month . In one of our earliest photos , we 're both in Brooks Brothers trench coats , leaning on a Princeton umbrella and sporting his-and-hers corporate haircuts . A friend said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ seen . " Then I went to Harvard Business School ; we made a plan for our lives . He would have the low-beta career and I the high-beta ( beta being the finance term for risk and potential reward ) . We actually did the maths for this . I remember thinking , ' If I date him , there 's an 80% chance I 'll get a weird infection ' Through the years , I 've had periods when something snaps . When I turn deaf to the data and do something crazy , because I crave joy , creativity , a jolt . It happens every decade or so . In 2011 , it happened . I became a writer . We divorced . I moved back to New York and made a statistical game out of dating . I downloaded a few dating apps and quickly figured out which had the best men : the best apps centred on photos . After all , I had undergone enough institutional brainwashing to be able to weed out , from a few snaps , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . I learned that a hat means he 's bald , no smile means bad teeth , grainy pictures means lying about age . From photos , I could figure out their travel smarts , their creativity , insularity , intelligence level , and even education and political bent . Believe it or not , something as simple as a baseball cap , choice of sunglasses or favourite sport is enough accurately to differentiate ( on an aggregate level , at least ) a midwestern Republican bible-thumper on a two-year work stint in New York from a pro-choice , dual citizen who makes his own bechamel sauce and reads Sebald . In two years , I had many high-quality boyfriends , ones who scored well by every known metric . And , as predicted by my personal algorithm , I went on roughly 12 dates per eventual boyfriend . Once , I segmented the population of Iranian-American men into four categories and devised a plan to date one from each kind . The experiment effortlessly settled the question : " Should you be with an Iranian ? " The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wasted no time . I had a tight schedule . I had many pretty dresses . I kept my body fat next to nothing . Sometimes , I accompanied friends to freeze their eggs . I considered it , but in the end I believed in my eggs . Throughout all this , I found my way into a decent writing career . At 35 , I had it together again . Then , out of nowhere , chaos . *** I met Sam , not on a Tinder date , but at a writer 's colony . He was English , divorced , 39 , jobless . His shirts were full of holes . He had n't cut his hair in six months and washed it maybe every two weeks ; it was a crazy curly mess that reminded me of Sideshow Bob from the Simpsons . Back in New York , I was dating a handsome Mexican businessman who fit all the criteria . A low-beta career , love of travel , a sense of humour . But , suddenly , I found myself falling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I actually remember thinking , " If I date him , there 's an 80% chance I 'll get a weird infection . " Over many meals , I learned that Sam had spent the last year wandering from residency to residency , writing a novel about a Vichy demographer so devoted to his work that he did n't stop to think maybe he should n't be calculating census numbers for the Nazis . Now , he was on trial for crimes against humanity . " So you 're claiming that he did it mostly for the love of the census ? " I said . " Right , " Sam said . " Culpability is a complex thing . " " I think he 's guilty , " I said , surprising myself . " Maths is just a tool . You have to care about the thing you 're calculating . " Silently , I did the forecasts on Sam : he would n't make a dime for years . But I loved his novel . He lent me The Reader . He @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I stopped crunching the numbers . Slowly , I fell for his distractedness , his wandering , the life he had scattered in three storage spaces . He loved my OCD and the way I counted on my fingers . He called me Rain Man . " How much do you love me ? " I asked . " There 's beggary in the love that can be reckoned , " he said . Screw that , I thought . Everything can be measured , even love . If it was a job , I 'd be amazing at it . I should be a yenta . Sometimes , Sam watched me do puzzles . He read me short stories as I slept . Then , at some point between a history in French demography and a night with the works of Annie Dillard , my once-a-decade insanity came early and I got pregnant . Soon , every sphere of my life , once neatly rolled skeins arranged in a basket , unravelled into one big tangled mess . Early in the summer , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sam and I decided to leave New York and start over . " Let 's wander ! " we said , delirious with our news , with our brand new romance , each of us seeing in the other a strange twist on the qualities we had always chased in others . Nayeri in Provence with Sam and their daughter , Elena . Photograph : courtesy of Dina Nayeri We drifted to a tiny French village with a population of 3,000 geriatrics who dipped their toes in the fountain in front of the local restaurant , spoke only fast , accented French , and tested positive for toxoplasmosis at alarmingly high rates . Within three months , I 'd dismantled my life and landed inside my own worst nightmare . But we also relished our aimlessness . We plunged into the pregnancy , thinking that we could build a world around our unborn baby , caring for her , feeding her , monitoring her heartbeat . We looked at her sonogram : her big ears and the way she touched the wall of my uterus . Sam @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ American vitamins to France . Sam read my writing . I read his . Unable to make sense of my new life , I slowly went feral . When I got too big to shave my legs , Sam offered to do it , but I decided just to stop . When I got a yeast infection and did n't want to drive to the doctor , he stepped up with a bowl of yoghurt and a turkey baster . He cooked gingery salmon . He cooked a daube full of lamb . He cooked sour sauces to assuage my cravings . I devoured them all with my fingers . " This is n't the life I imagined , " I said . " I know , love , " he said . Fingers shaking , I sank my teeth into chicken thighs , gnawing to the bone . *** To preserve a sense of my own space , I turned to geometry . I created a perimeter : my suitcase , my backpack with my laptop and work stuff , a big leather @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ corner of the room and closed off that corner . I said , " Sam , this corner is mine . Do n't move it or touch it . " I figured , everything that surrounds me can change -- we can move down the road or to another country -- but in every place I 'll have this square metre that 's mine . Each morning , I woke in a stifling 500-year-old room , a constellation of mosquito bites covering my feet and calves , every tooth threatening to fall out as I struggled against a half-conscious panic attack . It always took me a few seconds to recognise the shock of black curls on the pillow beside me , the gentle English accent : " What 's wrong , love ? " My first thought : " I do n't have an address any more , or a phone . We 're in a town with no maternity store and I 'm wearing your boxers and I 've known you for 10 months . " I counted on my fingers : Probability of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Probability that current lonely feeling is caused by hormones : 90% Probability that that cheese I ate earlier in the market was unpasteurised and carrying The Tox : 99% ( I returned again and again to have my blood tested ) . How trifling and small they seemed now , my formulae and aspirations and plans I wanted my charts and my formulae back . I wanted something to strive for . Twelve dates equals new boyfriend . Two months in a colony equals a book draft . It was n't just the indignities of impending motherhood or having to forfeit all the carefree bliss of early romance : Sam was a stranger to me . Would my child be a stranger , too ? And what did this turn of events say about the way I had lived my life so far ? Was it all for nothing , all that calculating , all that striving ? Worst yet , had I chosen wrong ? I spent a month trying to find a formula for Sam . His unwashed hair ( that smelled so nice @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ T-shirt ( the softest shirt I 've worn ) , the way he took five minutes to get out a sentence ( oh , but what sentences ! ) . I remembered the day his parents had come to Heathrow to pick me up three months earlier . They did n't know my face -- I knew theirs because they were each identical to Sam in unrelated ways : his mother had his curls and his long , angular face ; his father had his expressive eyes and aquiline nose . I watched them scanning the crowd , confusion blanching their cheeks , for several long beats before I approached them . What were they thinking ? Who was this woman their son had brought home ? In what configurations would our genes meld together to create a new person ? One morning , I woke up soaking wet . I had sweated through the sheets and the stress was giving me acid reflux . " I have no plan , " I murmured into the pillow . " We can make a plan , " Sam said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I said . " But we do n't live on paper , " he said . " We 're living out of a suitcase , " I said . " Do you know how much stuff we need ? We need a stroller and car seat and diapers and burp cloths and a changing station and 10,000 other things . There are a dozen vaccines and two dozen signs of meningitis to memorise , and allergens and baby cribs . Do we put her on her back or on her front ? Should we have life insurance and godparents ? How will we build a whole life ? " " It 'll build itself , " he said . " Have a little trust . " But the universe gave me data so I do n't have to trust . Often , I wonder about the ratio of chaos and order that would equal a happy life . Clearly , I was n't satisfied in a life of diversified betas and shoe racks all aligned . But going feral almost broke me . Is life only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ welcome it and its beautiful wildness , or fight to rein it in ? So far , all I know is that my life has been a constant act of letting go , of changing what I need to survive , recalibrating the perimeter . After France , we built a life slowly . We moved again , and once more after that . We bought a changing station . We chose godparents . We borrowed a car seat . Suddenly , we were surrounded by aunts , uncles , cousins . We inherited bundles of baby clothes . We had the funniest , cleverest girl ( there is no comparing ) . It came together by itself . No , Elena brought it together . How did she do it , with her little hands ? A few months ago , I stumbled on a piece of paper from 2014 . It was labelled , " My five-year plan " . It was full of silly goals : publish second novel , finish third novel , decorate apartment , find community , read 50 books a year @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I wanted to edit it , to make a new list , to build a predictive model of my future , and Sam 's , and Elena 's . Where had this vital part of my identity gone ? Without it , I was no longer entirely me . And yet it was frightening what I had left off . Where was my Elena ? How trifling and small they seemed now , my formulae and aspirations and plans . I looked again at the page , the unfamiliar language of it . I kept thinking , without my deviations and the screw-ups , the probability of Elena would be zero . * Dina Nayeri 's new novel , Refuge , is published in July by Riverhead Books . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object between the verb 'gives' and 'out of being tracked'. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the construction.

While such data collection is legal , that does n't mean it 's all right . There are plenty of things you might prefer to keep to yourself , such as your income , your sexuality , your political views or your membership of the Yoko Ono fanclub . For an indication of what can be inferred from your online habits , take a look at the Apply Magic Sauce tool produced by Cambridge Psychometrics Centre , which produces a profile of your personality based on Facebook and Twitter data . And while you might console yourself with the knowledge that all of this information is mostly used for targeting ads , that might not be the case for much longer . The internet giants are building up ever more detailed user profiles -- and finding new ways to exploit that information . In the Observer , Carole Cadwalladr 's ongoing investigation has highlighted how analytic techniques were used in the recent EU referendum to target and craft messages to groups of persuadable voters based on psychological insights gleaned from online data . Even if you are relaxed about analytics companies gaming the political process , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wallet : researchers at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia have already found evidence that some online retailers use profiling to discriminate against certain customers . If you 're identified as a high-value shopper , you 're likely to be steered towards more expensive products , or even charged more than other visitors for the same item . And that 's just the start of it . Experts warn that , in the future , your online activity could be taken into consideration when you apply for a loan -- or for a job . That 's troubling , not least because profiling involves a large element of assumption and inference . Something as innocent as searching for a medical condition -- even out of mere curiosity -- could cause your insurance premiums to rocket , and you 'll never know why . Even if you 've nothing to hide , therefore , it may be wise to minimise your exposure to online tracking . Here 's how some of the biggest names on the web spy on you -- and how to protect your privacy . Amazon has a disconcerting habit of following you around the web . Spend a few minutes browsing its catalogue for a new crepe pan , and you might find that the next site you visit is mysteriously festooned with ads for cookware . Thankfully , Amazon gives you an easy way to opt out of being tracked in this way . Simply click on " Your Account " from the Amazon homepage , then scroll down to " Advertising Preferences " : here you 'll see the option to disable personalised ads . Note that since this feature relies on cookies , it will only take effect in the browser you 're currently using . Under " Advertising Preferences " , you 'll also see the option to view and manage your browsing history ; from here you can disable tracking altogether , or remove individual items from your Amazon history . That could be useful if you 're shopping for a gift , or if you 've been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . What about Amazon 's voice assistant devices ? If you 've got an Amazon Echo in your home , you might be concerned about it listening in on private conversations . Rest assured , the Echo does n't record anything it hears until you address it with the appropriate " wake word " ( normally " Alexa " ) . Whatever you say next is relayed to Amazon , where it 's processed and stored , but you can wipe this data at any time -- you 'll find the option to do so in Amazon 's " Manage Your Content and Devices " settings . To ensure that Alexa ca n't be woken up even by accident , you can also press the mute button on the top of the Echo to temporarily disable the microphone ; just press it again to turn it back on . It 's worth noting , however , that the Echo 's software updates automatically , so its behaviour could change at any time . We 'll be keeping a sharp eye out for any updates that could compromise your @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ your search terms on to Apple . Photograph : Graeme Robertson for the Guardian iPhones and iPads collect a lot of data about you , and it 's accessible not just to Apple but to third-party apps too . The " Privacy " section in the iOS Settings app gives you an overview of what 's being collected , and lets you disable various data-sharing features . One particular thing to note is that if you 're carrying an iPhone around in your pocket , it will be constantly keeping track of your location , and potentially sharing it . You can easily tell it not to , though : in the Settings app , tap on " Privacy " > " Location Services " and select which apps should have access to your GPS data . You can also disable system services such as " Frequent Locations " , or disable location services altogether -- though this means that apps like Apple Maps wo n't work . It 's a similar situation for Mac users . The macOS system uses network connections to work out where @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ information can be shared with applications and websites . You can manage this from " System Preferences " > " Security & Privacy " . Another privacy concern for macOS users is the fact that every time you search for something in Spotlight , your search terms are passed on to Apple , so the company 's servers can provide suggested links to online sources . You can disable this feature by opening " System Preferences " > " Spotlight " and unticking the box for " Spotlight Suggestions " . Finally , keep an eye on your webcam , as malware can allow hackers to literally spy on you via your Mac 's built-in camera . If the light comes on unexpectedly , that means someone 's watching you ; for complete peace of mind , you can always cover the camera with opaque tape . Consider also going to " System Preferences " > " Sound " and disabling the internal microphone , to ensure no one 's eavesdropping on your conversations . Facebook : you might decide the safest option is not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ You 've probably handed plenty of personal information to Facebook yourself -- but the social network also tracks your visits to other websites to build up a scarily detailed profile of your lifestyle and interests . This information is mostly used for targeting ads , but it could be turned to other purposes in the future . Facebook is quite open about the information it collects . When you see an ad on your timeline , you can always click the drop-down menu at its top right and select " Why am I seeing this ? " to discover why Facebook chose to show you an ad for a smartphone , rather than one for scented soap . For a fuller explanation of what Facebook knows about you , go to the " Settings " page and click " Adverts " to inspect your advertising profile . If there are any mistakes here , or advertisers you do n't want to hear from , they can be removed or blocked with a click . The creepy part is that , by default , Facebook 's targeted ads @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cookies to follow your profile on to other websites and , like Amazon , ensure that you see the ads it wants you to . You can disable this behaviour from the advert preferences page : under " Advert settings " you 'll see a rather awkwardly phrased setting for " Ads on apps and websites off of the Facebook Companies " . Set this to " No " and you should regain a degree of online anonymity . Of course , this does n't mean that Facebook is n't still profiling you : there 's sadly no easy way to stop it collecting information . Your best bet is to turn to the measures described in " The internet " , below , such as enabling " Do Not Track " in your browser , specifically opting out or installing an anti-tracking browser extension . Or , of course , you may decide it 's safest just to delete your Facebook account . Most of us use Google services every day , and as a result the web giant knows a huge amount about our @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's learned about you at myaccount.google.com . Your data is all set out in an impressively forthright way ; the only problem is , there 's so much information to work through that it can be bewildering to navigate . One section that 's worth your attention is " Manage your Google activity " . Here you 'll find Google 's activity controls , which let you disable various types of data collection . For example , you can tell Google not to log your Chrome browsing history and activity , to stop tracking your location and to desist from keeping records of any voice commands you might issue . Turning these features off can make Google services less smart , but you might consider that a price worth paying . For a closer look at the information Google 's been collecting on you lately , click on " My activity " . This brings up a timeline showing all of your searches , webpage visits , Android app activity and so forth . Seeing your digital life laid bare like this can be pretty unnerving : if @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ simply click on the menu icon to its right and delete . If you want to thoroughly inspect everything Google knows about you , you can even download a comprehensive archive of personal information by clicking on " Control your content " > " Download your data " . Be warned , though , this archive can be huge : the default settings include all the emails in your Gmail account , and any videos you may have uploaded to YouTube . If you want to limit the information you share with Google in the future , the easiest way is simply to use it less . For example , try the privacy-focused search engine at duckduckgo.com , and use an alternative browser such as Firefox . Windows 10 's " telemetry " features automatically capture all sorts of information about what you 're doing on your PC , and send it back to Microsoft . The company insists that this information is only used to improve Windows , but it can still feel like a violation . The recent " Creators Update " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as part of the update process , but you can check and change your settings at any time : simply open the Windows 10 Settings app and click on " Privacy " . You 'll find no fewer than 18 pages of configuration options , covering everything from personalised advertising to location services . There are a few settings you might particularly want to check . One feature of Windows 10 that may be cause for concern is the way it tracks everything you type -- yes , everything -- and shares it with Microsoft . This is supposed to help the operating system learn the way you work , but if the idea makes you shudder , you can disable it under " Speech , inking and typing " . Under " Feedback & diagnostics " , meanwhile , you can choose how much diagnostic information gets periodically sent back to Microsoft . A full report includes details of which applications you 've been using and which websites you 've been visiting , so you might prefer to switch to the more limited basic setting . You @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you by visiting the Privacy Dashboard at **29;1203;TOOLONG . While not strictly a privacy issue , another controversial aspect of Windows 10 is the inclusion of ads in the user interface . To remove unwanted ads from the Start menu , go to " Settings " > " Personalisation " > " Start " and disable " Occasionally show suggestions in Start " . To stop Microsoft advertising its OneDrive cloud storage service , open File Explorer , then select " View " > " Options " > " Change folder and search options " , click on the " View " tab , and untick " Show sync provider notifications " . Google Chrome , like most major browsers , has options to disable tracking . Photograph : Samuel Gibbs for the Guardian All right , it 's an exaggeration to say that the internet as a whole is spying on you . But there are a hell of a lot of companies out there keeping tabs on your online activity . The motivation normally comes down to filthy lucre -- tracking your @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be fair you might prefer those to irrelevant ones . If you 'd rather not be tracked , one step you can immediately take is to enable the " do not track " feature in your browser . Yes , it 's that simple : every major web browser has the capability to tell websites that you do n't want to be followed -- you can find more details at donottrack.us . The only problem with this system is that compliance is completely optional , so websites that want to follow you still can . Another thing you can do is visit youradchoices.com , a site that checks your browser for " tracking cookies " from more than 100 companies . You can disable individual cookies , or turn off all behavioural advertising with a single click . After this , you 'll still see ads , but they wo n't be customised to your interests any more . A more drastic solution is to configure your browser to reject third-party cookies -- that is , cookies that connect to a site other than the one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ problems if , for example , a site uses embedded content from elsewhere on the web . A safer option is to use a tool such as Ghostery ; this free browser extension can block tracking cookies from more than 4,500 companies , while letting you selectively enable cross-site content . It 's a pain that this should be necessary , but if you do n't want your personal information to be shared around online , it 's a precaution worth taking . |

It is typical of Ian Poulter to make the most of opportunity . He has made a career out of doing that , frequently in the face of adversity . Only a fortnight ago it appeared the Englishman 's exemption status on the PGA Tour was no more after he missed the cut at the Texas Open . Salvation subsequently arrived via a recalculation of FedEx Cup points , which swiftly restored him to the upper echelons of a sport to which he has contributed so valuably over the past 20 years . It is standard knowledge that Poulter is not happy just to play on the PGA Tour ; his burning ambition is to compete . Read more Perhaps the scare jolted Poulter into action , not that his form after a lengthy injury period was particularly bad . Maybe the 41-year-old has been rejuvenated by the prospect of proving , once more , how he belongs among the game 's leading lights . Poulter has the prospect of claiming what would arguably be the greatest win of his career -- @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ -- after a third round of 71 at the Players Championship moved him to six under . Poulter is within touching distance of the lead -- held by JB Holmes and Kyle Stanley on nine under -- following an afternoon performance that defied those elsewhere ; he was the only man in the field who did not drop a shot . Chances to post an even better score narrowly slipped by on the closing two holes . What a testing day this proved . Thankfully the electric storms forecast for this corner of Florida missed to the south but winds gusted over a course that was hazardous enough to begin with . The PGA Tour , to its credit , was sensible with pin placements . Sergio Garc ? a appeared free from the shackles of expectation which , by his own admission , played a part on Thursday and Friday . The recently crowned Masters champion returned his finest score of the week , 67 , to prove the most notable mover on moving day . At five under Garc ? a has an excellent chance of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a share of history . Tiger Woods is , for now , the only golfer to win the Masters and Players in the same year .

I 'm not going to lie , it does help to win a major and to win the Masters the way I did it but I do n't feel like I 'm that different a player . Maybe I have a little bit more confidence here and there , but that 's about it . " I felt like a little bit in chains on Thursday because of the Masters , because of how overwhelming everything has been . You get there and I was thinking : ' Come on , you have to play well after winning the Masters . ' I probably put a little bit too much pressure on myself . I tightened up a little bit and I did n't play as well as I 've been playing . I 'm @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ McIlroy took three putts on the last before signing for a 71 that moved him to one under on aggregate . The Northern Irishman had produced one of the shots of the day at the 17th , where a glorious wedge tee shot set up a birdie two . Post-round discussion once again surrounded McIlroy 's back problem , which appeared to have eased between rounds two and three . He continues to wear heavy back strapping when on the course . " I do n't know if it 's just me getting used to it or if it 's actually a little bit better but it is n't any worse so that 's a positive , " said McIlroy . " I do n't have trouble breathing , so all the signs point that it 's not going to be too serious . It 's just giving me a bit of discomfort and I just need to get it checked out . " A lighthearted moment followed as McIlroy revealed the concerns of his wife , Erica , within weeks of marriage . " I 'm conscious @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the world No2 explained . " That 's facing away from Erica and she 's like : ' Why ? Are you not happy with me ? What 's going on ? I 'm like : ' No , no , it 's fine I 'm just taking care of my back . ' " Phil Mickelson stumbled to a third round of 78 while Jon Rahm 's challenge ended abruptly as he played the front nine in 42 . Rahm made a double bogey at the 10th , his misery continued . He later signed for an 82 , 10 strokes more than on Friday and 14 more than round one . |

Instead, it describes a situation where someone makes a living from an activity (making amazing cakes), which does not involve a causer and causee relationship or the specific interpretations (movement/extraction or prevention) associated with the transitive out of -ing construction.

Sunday 14 May 2017 08.30 EDT First published on Sunday 14 May 2017 02.00 EDT Social media frequently appears to be a modern popularity contest , but at least that gives us an indication of the reputations of some of our best-known companies . Take the official Twitter account of the irksome estate agency Foxtons , for instance , which possesses a mighty 400 followers and drones on about the major housing topics de nos jours , such as : " Do you know what it takes to be a landlord ? " ( we might venture a guess ) . By comparison , the @AvoidFoxtons account is proving far more popular , but the estate agent will get a chance to get its official message across this week , when it holds its annual meeting . Still , the gathering comes as other irritating hecklers are also shouting from the sidelines . The company 's shares have lost about 30% of their value in the past 12 months , while fresh news from the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors ( Rics ) last week suggested that the UK housing market is continuing to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " buyer demand contributing to one of the most downbeat reports since the financial crash . Oh -- and obviously there is also the chance of a row with shareholders over executive pay . So will anybody take any notice of Foxtons 's excuses for its list of current challenges ? Possibly -- although sympathisers may be less numerous than its collection of Twitter followers . This week , Royal Mail Group is promising to hold its annual general meeting -- although we 'd all be wise to wait and see if it follows through with that pledge . The company is fast developing a reputation for not always sticking exactly to its word . You will recall how there is currently an almighty row between the company and some staff about efforts to wriggle out of a defined benefit pension scheme -- which pays out to employees based on years of service with either a career average or final salary . They are nice pensions to have , but are now supposedly unaffordable , unless , as one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ collegiate thing and die more quickly . All of which explains why Royal Mail stopped new staff joining the scheme nine years ago . Anyway , the company is now trying to cut the benefits to its employees who were already enrolled in the scheme , hence the threat of industrial action . As any A-level business student will tell you , pensions are wages deferred and if Royal Mail does not deliver , it 's conceptually no different from cutting salaries . Expect that point to be made at this week 's AGM -- assuming Royal Mail does n't try to sidestep that too . Just as the concept of state-owned industries is thrust back into the news agenda with the drafting of the Labour manifesto , there comes a potentially symbolic moment when the UK government finally withdraws from one of its most infamous investments . The government 's investment holding company , UKFI , has been selling down its once-43% stake in Lloyds Banking Group for months . We have now got to the point @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that dashing boss Ant ? nio Horta-Os ? rio might treat us as he does members of the paparazzi while on a foreign business trip -- and not even notice we 're hanging around . Anyway , this week is expected to be the moment when our now 0.25% holding finally goes to zero , so expect crowing by the Conservative party about how Lloyds has been nursed back into the private sector on its watch ( and , possibly , Horta-Os ? rio saying he 's off ) . Apparently we have all made around ? 500m out of owning a stake in the bank -- which sounds quite good , although that might be misleading . Last week the Financial Times worked out that if we had we stuck our ? 20.3bn stake into Lloyds ' highest-paying instant access account , we 'd have scooped ? 2.9bn in interest . |

" Pain starts past six hours , " said the pianist Nicolas Horvath of performing Erik Satie 's Vexations , which requires 840 repetitions of the same few lines of notation . " Madness starts past 12 hours ; hell starts past 20 hours ! " Another pianist , according to the New Yorker , abandoned his performance of the piece after 595 of the repetitions " because he claimed he was being overtaken by evil thoughts and noticed strange creatures emerging from the sheet music " . This is not the sort of talk you usually hear around the making and selling of speculative property developments , but then Steve Chance and Wendy de Silva , although they can be defined as property developers by virtue of the fact that they buy sites , build on them and then sell , are not of the usual kind . They are architects for whom trading in land and construction is a means to a creative end . " We behave more like an artist , " they say . " You just paint what you want and hope someone wants to buy it . " They @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a house called Vex in Stoke Newington , north London , they chose as their partners two musicians -- one dead ( Satie ) , and one living -- Robin Rimbaud , who also likes to be called Scanner , on account of his interest in capturing the electronic sounds of such things as mobile phones and police scanners . Vex , say Chance and de Silva , is inspired by Vexations , most obviously in the looping repetition of its forms , a stack of irregular cylinders , which " like the Satie piece go and come back , not always in the same orbit " . Scanner was commissioned to compose a piece -- any piece -- that could be played in the house once complete . Vex is mostly made of poured concrete , which is heavy and slow : slow to build , slow to warm up and cool down , and somehow imparting an atmosphere of slowness to movements inside it . It seems to belong to a different dimension of time from the thin brick skins of the generic terraced houses around it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a spiralling movement up through its internal stair and instability from a certain teeter in the way the external shapes cantilever and recede . Fittingly , for a house built with a musician , Vex 's curves are reminiscent of sound waves . The external surface of the concrete gets a more urgent rhythm from the imprint of the corrugated steel shuttering in which it was cast , whose curving profiles might also be thought of as something like sound waves . Other layers of time come with the scars and wrinkles of construction , the marks of nails and the joints between sheets , dribbles and warps , some patchy stuff round the back where , as Chance says , " it looks like a bomb 's gone off " . In a good way , it feels like a building born old . It has history already . In truth , the decision to build in poured concrete added another layer of difficulty to the already less than obvious idea of basing a speculative house on a notoriously painful work of music . The making @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a pour that , like a many-ton souffl ? , has to work the first time . There was a bulge on the ground floor that led to changes in method when the upper floors were built . The use of concrete was " incredibly nerve-racking " . It added 18 months to the construction programme . " Why do n't you build it out of something else ? " said prospective contractors . To say nothing of the scepticism of some planners and neighbours : one got up a petition against the " tower block " , until the architects took round a model , to show that it was only three storeys , plus a roof terrace . At this point in the architects ' telling of the story it begins to sound like crawling the London Marathon course in a gorilla suit ; something insanely difficult done just in order to do something insanely difficult . But the means of construction give the building a presence it could get no other way . They also allow things important to both the architects and Scanner , even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , improvisation , things not turning out as expected . The project resembles Vexations in another way , a piece whose listeners , to quote the New Yorker again , pass through phases of phases of " fascination " , " agitation " and " all-encompassing agony " to " a state of deep tranquillity " . The interior of the hard-won house , especially the top floor kitchen/living/dining room , is at the very least serene , an elevated manmade cave around which sunlight , entering from different directions , moves . Chance and de Silva are taking their time about renting or selling the house -- they are enjoying spending time there themselves , and are thinking about holding a live event there with Scanner . Should the future inhabitants fancy it , they can play Scanner 's music in the somewhat reverberant space -- two 20-minute pieces that can be heard concurrently or sequentially , formed out of sounds of the building site and of traffic in the street , which are then " wrapped " , as Scanner puts it , around samples of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 're hearing the music , as opposed to an ambient set of city noises , which is as Scanner wants it . " The piece works best if you only notice when it 's switched off that it was there -- like it 's not until a window 's broken that you notice it . " Music is liquid architecture , said Goethe , and architecture is frozen music , and they both unfold in space and time . Scanner says that the two arts " want to be in bed together , but they can be troublesome partners " . The extent to which Vex can really be like Vexations is limited ( which may be just as well ) : the relationship is more analogous and indirect . Where they come closest is in the making of an atmosphere , an environment that , memorably , a bit madly , mostly beautifully , is what Vex does . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pulled out of investing' does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

" Bakhshi said BMO would use its voice to encourage companies and policymakers to adopt strategies to make a transition to a low-carbon global economy . More than $5tn in institutional assets , such as pension funds , now have some sort of divestment strategy in place and one-third of UK investors say they would like a fossil-free option for their savings . |

TT legend John McGuinness has been ruled out of this year 's event after suffering a nasty crash during qualifying for the North West 200 - an incident that has not only seriously hampered the official Honda TT squad 's preparations , but also cast a shadow over its 2017 TT participation . Will be a very different TT this year without him McGuinness suffered a compound fracture to his right lower leg , an injury that requires an external fixator to aid healing , as well as four broken vertebrae and three broken back ribs , ruling him out of racing the TT as he will be in a cast for six weeks to allow the vertebrae to heal . In response to the incident , the team withdrew both its Superstock and Superbike racers as the cause of the accident is determined back at the team 's HQ in Louth . " It is a real blow to John and the team , but he 's got an incredible amount @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ medical staff at the Royal Victoria Hospital , " said team manager Jonny Twelvetrees . " We now need to analyse John 's bike and regroup ahead of our next test at Castle Combe in a couple of weeks before we head to the Isle of Man . " It is no secret that Honda 's race teams have been struggling to adapt to the new Fireblade 's ride-by-wire throttle after years using a conventional throttle and some degree of suspicion for the crash is being aimed at this new system . Especially as this is the third time John , who at 45 is n't exactly a young hot head , has tipped off the ' Blade this year . So what does this development mean for John 's teammate Guy Martin ? To race the TT you need 100 per cent faith in the bike , so the team needs to find a definitive cause of McG 's crash as soon as possible . Also , and here is the really interesting bit , with John now out of action , Guy is in arguably the best @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Mugen . The electric TT is a two-horse race at best between the two Mugen bikes , and with John now sidelined it is up to Honda/Mugen if they go for the publicity of Guy winning and only run one bike or sign up a new team mate ( Bruce Anstey perhaps ? ) and risk compromising that lovely publicity ... So who will take victory instead ? But before that , what has the North West - the TTs precursor - told us about the men in form ? When it comes to the TT proper it looks once again like a fight between Hutchy and Michael Dunlop , with Dunlop looking as if he has clicked with the new Suzuki ( unlike the Yamaha a few years ago ) as he was fourth in the second Superbike race - behind Hutchy . That said , with the same bike as last year , Hutchy is still the favourite . The Supersport races will be the closest , but if practice week is dry then Dunlop may well be able to fully click with the Suzuki @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will be with Hutchy in the big bike classes . However Hicky has been on form in BSB this year and is certainly due a win ; but then there is also Dean Harrison , Lee Johnston , Rutter , the Norton duo , Hillier , Cummins and Guy . Plus what about Anstey on the RCV , now he has a year under his belt riding it ? No McGuinness is a blow , but it will still be a cracking fortnight of action . Join the PH rating wars with your marks out of 10 for the article ( Your ratings will be shown in your profile if you have one ! ) Real shame . Hope he heals . Ex-fix on the leg is horrible , been there done that . I hope Honda can determine the problem so that Guy Martin can get his well deserved win . robinh7319 hours ago It is a great shame , McGuiness is such a top bloke and as has been said , the TT will not be the same without him @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to win , but as for Guy Martin , sadly I do n't think he has it in him to do so . He has been so close when he was at the peak of his career , but he just has n't got the focus to get the win . Such a shame , as he has been great for the sport , but he just has n't got what it takes now . Even less so since he has thrown himself into cycling . Shame . chris465200919 hours ago He 's So lucky to be alive , I 'll be very surprised if he ever races again . Such a terrible way to end an amazing career . Dakkon19 hours ago Lots of interesting comments , personally I think John continuing with racing will be down to how quickly / easily he recovers , he still wants to equal Joey 's record , so I think there is life in the ol ' dog yet . Also with Guy , not prepared to write him off at all , I think he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of times , once he was the guest speaker to a dinner , fascinating stories , easy charm .

TOMMY WRIGHT 'S extraordinary achievements at St Johnstone are poised to reach a new high as he closes in on a record season for the Perth club . Wright has delivered European football for the fourth consecutive campaign following last Saturday 's victory over Partick Thistle and , of course , won the Scottish Cup in 2014 . One more victory will give the Perth club 58 points , their highest tally since the league was reconstructed in 1975 . It would also represent their best top-flight league season since the Second World War outside of Willie Ormond 's performance in 1970/71 , when his side achieved19 wins and six draws -- the equivalent to 63 points nowadays . So it is a source of utter bewilderment to first-team coach Alex Cleland that the Northern Irishman has been overlooked in the search for Manager of the Year . The former Rangers defender finds it astonishing that Wright was not short-listed for the PFA Scotland awards and his disappointment is understandable . Cleland @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ become the more you become overlooked . If you look at what he has achieved by repeatedly finishing in the top six and qualifying for Europe , it is remarkable . Looking at his budget and what he has to work with compared to other managers in the league , he has done a fantastic job . So I was really surprised that he was not nominated for manager of the year . " I do n't think Tommy as a manager and St Johnstone as a club get enough credit or recognition because we have been doing the same thing virtually every year . We have been successful repeatedly . People think of us as a small club with a small fan base . We 've done it again by qualifying for Europe again and I think in later years people will look back at this period in St Johnstone 's history and realise what a great period it was . I think the players will look back with pride too that they were able to play in the Europa League and we feel the same way as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were a fair distance ahead of us at one point but we have overhauled that and clinched the European place with a couple of games to spare . " St Johnstone face Hearts tomorrow night having blown them out of the water in the race for Europe and then finish the campaign at home to Rangers on Sunday before a short break and an early June return to prepare for Europe once more . Cleland , however , has no issue with Wright 's fellow countryman Brendan Rodgers being named top manager -- and reckons his performance since taking over and rejuvenating Celtic has been and will continue to be good for the Scottish game . While the gulf between Celtic and the rest has rendered the title race uncompetitive , Cleland feels the power of Celtic makes Scottish football an attraction for others . The former Rangers defender said : " Make no mistake some of Celtic 's football has been great at times and they have players capable of that little bit of magic . If you 're a Celtic fan and you 're @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " As well as Derek McInnes has done at Aberdeen , Celtic are just so far ahead . " It 's going to take a real effort from all the teams next season but they do n't look like they are going to have any bad days and Brendan will want to strengthen what he already has . " The main thing he has done is to get consistently high performances out of existing players . It 's so hard for the rest of us but it 's a challenge we all have to try to take up . The thing is you want a team like that in your league because it attracts better players . " When I played at Ibrox , Walter Smith was able to attract better players because of the players he had at the time and it was the same with Celtic then , too . People outside of Scotland are talking about how well Celtic are playing and if they do well in Europe next season then it makes it better for everybody .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'come out of hiding', where 'hiding' is a noun, not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object in the sentence, and it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

JEREMY Corbyn will today make his pitch for power , launching a " radical and responsible programme of hope , " including a promise to campaign tirelessly against a second Scottish independence referendum . The Labour leader will tell activists and supporters in Bradford that the party 's mission will be to " reverse our national priorities " under the Tories , which have put the interests of the rich and powerful few ahead of those of the ordinary and powerless many . The manifesto will make clear Labour 's total opposition to another vote on Scotland 's future , declaring : " It is unwanted and unnecessary and we will campaign tirelessly to ensure Scotland remains part of the UK . Independence would lead to turbo-charged austerity for Scottish families . " Loading article content The Herald can reveal Mr Corbyn will commit a future Labour government to abolishing the " abhorrent " rape clause as part of a roll-back of recent Tory welfare cuts . It is also @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it would want powers returned from the EU to go straight to the relevant nation or region although a party source suggested control could still be given to Whitehall in " exceptional circumstances " . Another proposal said to be contained in Labour 's programme for government is a plan to reduce the threshold at which workers start paying the 45p additional rate of income tax from ? 150,000 a year to ? 80,000 while retaining a plan to introduce a higher rate of 50p for top earners . Less than a week ago , Mr Corbyn and his colleagues faced the embarrassment of seeing their party 's complete draft manifesto leaked , containing a raft of socialist policies , including : proposals to renationalise the railways ; strengthen trade union rights ; scrap the public sector pay cap ; maintain the triple lock on state pensions ; end tuition fees in England and have " reasonable management " of migration minus any target figure . Launching the real manifesto with only a few expected changes , the Labour leader will aim is fire directly at Theresa @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ programme of hope . The Tory campaign , by contrast , is built on one word : fear . " The record proves one thing : the Tories are still the nasty party ; the party of prejudice , the party of the rich , the party of the tight-fisted and the mean-spirited . " And as other party leaders prepare to debate election issues on live television later this week , Mr Corbyn will again challenge the Prime Minister to a head to head showdown . " I say to her : Prime Minister , come out of hiding and let 's have that debate on television so millions can make up their minds . What are you afraid of ? It 's not too late . Let 's debate our two manifestos . Have the argument . " I am confident that once the people of Britain have the chance to hear our promises and plans , they will decide now is the time for Labour . " But as another poll placed the Tories on an 18-point lead , the party 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " He simply does n't have what it takes to lead our country through Brexit and beyond , " claimed David Gauke , the Chief Secretary to the Treasury . Angus Robertson , the SNP deputy leader , said Labour was " completely incapable of standing up to the Tories and a million miles away from forming a government " ; now more than ever , he insisted , it was vital to have strong SNP voices standing up for Scotland at Westminster . On Scotland ahead of the manifesto launch , the Labour leader , who famously said " I 'm not a Unionist ; I 'm a socialist , " made clear his party 's unequivocal opposition to another independence poll . " Scotland does n't need or want a second independence referendum , " he declared , stressing how the SNP Government needed to get on with the job of governing . " Holding another referendum on leaving the UK is the wrong thing to do for Scotland 's economy , especially when there is so much economic uncertainty from the Tories ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ His colleague Kezia Dugdale , the Scottish Labour leader , who will be at the manifesto launch in Yorkshire , said : " By voting Labour on June 8 , Scots can tell Nicola Sturgeon that we do n't want another divisive independence referendum . " Voters can reject a second referendum and deeper Tory cuts with one vote for Labour . Voting Tory does n't send Nicola Sturgeon a message , it sends Theresa May back to Number 10 . A Labour government led by Jeremy Corbyn will work for the many , not the few . " Last night in a TV election broadcast , the Labour leader , sought to counter the attacks by Tories that he is not a patriot by telling viewers : " I love this country . I love the history , the beauty , the diversity ... " Ahead of the manifesto launch , he campaigned in Yorkshire where thousands of supporters , chanting " Corbyn , Corbyn " crammed venues in Leeds and Hebden Bridge . Earlier , the Labour leader sought to hijack an appearance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to her to take part in a TV debate with him . However , the Conservative leader dismissed his call , arguing it was more important for her to take questions directly from voters .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks an NP object and a VP2[-ing] predicate that would induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'come out of hiding' does not involve a transitive verb with an NP object and does not fit the semantic or syntactic criteria of the construction.

Monday 15 May 2017 17.31 EDT First published on Monday 15 May 2017 17.00 EDT Jeremy Corbyn will lay out plans for a " fat cat " tax under which big businesses , city banks and Premier League clubs will have to pay a levy if they offer workers hefty pay packages , the Guardian has learned . The full Labour manifesto , to be published on Tuesday , will include a proposal that aims to disincentivise excessive pay by charging companies a 2.5% levy on earnings above ? 330,000 and 5% on those above ? 500,000 . Labour will justify the move -- that will hit employers rather than workers and be calculated on the basis of basic salary , shares , bonuses and pensions rolled together -- by claiming inequality is damaging society . Those who designed the policy believe it will deter companies from paying excessive amounts . The rates mean that companies will have to pay ? 4,250 extra for every worker receiving ? 500,000 in pay and perks . For a person earning ? 1m a year , that would rise to ? 29,250 . The policy will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 4.5bn by increasing income tax for those earning more than ? 80,000 -- almost one million people -- with experts suggesting a 45% rate , which is currently imposed on salaries above ? 150,000 . Read more The Guardian understands that there is also likely to be a new 50% tax rate , which will kick in at a lower income threshold than the current ? 150,000 top rate . Those proposals , which were not included in last week 's leaked draft manifesto , will be published in a separate document .

ITV 's Robert Peston confronted the prime minister on Monday during a Facebook Live session in which she fielded questions from members of the public , with a request from a " Jeremy Corbyn in Islington " to face him in a televised debate . " What is more important is that I and he take questions directly from the voters , " May said , claiming that people did not get much from watching politicians " have a go at each @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and described his policies as a shambles . The chief secretary to the Treasury , David Gauke , said : " His economic ideas are nonsensical , his views on national security indefensible -- and he 'd make a total mess of the Brexit negotiations . " Corbyn will promise Labour will investigate reorganising the UK along federal lines as part of reforms to reduce Westminster 's dominance . In a major switch in the party 's thinking , the manifesto will say a new constitutional convention it is establishing later this year will " consider the option of a more federalised country " . It will also commit Labour to the eventual goal of scrapping the House of Lords and replacing it with an elected senate and extending the power of regional and local government . Launching the policy on excessive wages , Labour will point out that pay for CEOs in the FTSE 100 has risen by 33% since 2010 and now stands at ? 5.5m , with the ratio of pay to average earnings up from 150:1 to 183:1 . One insider argued @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ improved company performance was " thin to non-existent " . " Voters are fed up with seeing executive pay levels soar at a time when living standards for working families are falling . This levy will put pressure on companies to curb fat cat pay while bringing in some additional revenue to invest in public services , " they said . The party will argue that by targeting multibillion pound companies , rather than individuals , the policy would not deter highly paid workers and would not see prices passed on to consumers . There would be 100,000 workers -- equivalent to 0.34% of all taxpayers -- whose pay would qualify for the levies . Sources added that Premier League clubs , which would be affected , made ? 3.4bn in profit with an average wage bill of ? 134m per club . A source said the levy would be charged annually and there would be no cap , meaning that companies and football clubs would need to pay well in excess of ? 200,000 for mega salaries over ? 5m . The policy is primarily @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ raise ? 1.3bn . The thresholds were chosen because they are 20 times the national living wage and 20 times the median wage . The policy comes on top of a 20:1 pay ratio cap on companies that have public contracts . Labour was attracted to the idea of the levy after it was raised by the economist Faiza Shaheen , director of the Centre for Labour and Social Studies . She said : " Year after year we 've seen pay at the top rise , while average wages have stagnated . Shaming companies publicly has failed to change the status quo ; an excessive pay levy attempts to force companies to think twice about unfair wages at the top while generating income for our public services .

BASED on Carlo Collodi 's original 1883 novel rather than the famous Disney film , Jasmin Vardimon 's adaptation of Pinocchio is a delight of visual inventiveness . The choreographer 's move into family-friendly theatre , rather than the sociopolitical work for which she 's best known , is joyously realised with a combination of dance , circus skills , theatre and mime . With movements convincingly loose-jointed and uncoordinated , she 's found the perfect dancer in Maria Doulgeri to negotiate her way through the puppet 's journey to become a proper boy . Her face is a blank canvas upon which to paint the emotions she learns with each episodic encounter . Lured from home by the conniving Cat and Fox , Pinocchio is given lessons at the Great Marionette theatre , in which aerial acrobatics are performed and there 's a restaurant where a spaghetti-eating couple are fashioned out of painted feet and a schoolyard in which children turn into donkeys . Along the way , in a narrative that 's at times overly earnest , Pinnochio 's consciousness is presented as a neonlit face , created out of fluttering @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ its magic . The impressionistic nature of the staging also makes certain scenes hard to follow , especially for a production aimed at children aged seven and above . Geppetto 's boat journey on a sea of fabric , for instance , is visually gorgeous but it 's not obvious that a whale has swallowed him until the audience is informed of it by the narrator . But with some tightening of the puppet strings such as this , the focus could remain centred on the show 's wow factor , of which there are many .

Chanel has been denounced on social media for appropriating Indigenous Australian culture by producing a $2,000 boomerang derided as the ultimate in useless status symbols . The wood and resin item is priced at A$1,930 in the luxury haute couture brand 's latest spring-summer 2017 pre-collection , under " other accessories " . Jeffree Star , a US makeup artist with a sizeable following on social media , brought it to wider attention when he displayed his own on Twitter , Snapchat and Instagram on Monday . " Having so much fun with my new @Chanel boomerang , " he tweeted with the emoji for the OK symbol . The absence of hashtags to denote sponsored content , as demanded by the Federal Trade Commission in the US , indicates he paid for the boomerang himself . More than 86,000 people liked his photo of the inexplicable luxury item on Instagram , where there was a heated debate about Chanel 's appropriation of Indigenous Australian culture . Nearly 2,300 comments were posted in three hours , some by users who identified as Aboriginal Australians who said they found the Chanel boomerang offensive . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ culture " . " I am from Australia and I am offended that a company would make a joke out of something that was used as a weapon for survival .

" It is no better than the fake inauthentic Aboriginal art from Thailand ... except this is much pricier . At A$1,930 , it costs nearly 10% of the average income of Indigenous Australians . " In a statement , Chanel told Guardian Australia it was " extremely committed to respecting all cultures , and regrets that some may have felt offended . " A Brisbane rapper , the Gurang/Nugigi woman Kaylah Truth , tweeted incredulously at the pricetag : " That @Chanel boomerang better be able to return even after knocking me a kangaroo and Chanel CEO for lunch .

" Gorrie told Guardian Australia the item was " so wrong it is almost absurd " , when Indigenous Australians were the most disadvantaged people in Australia and had to fight to preserve their cultures . " Having a luxury brand swoop in , appropriate , sell our technologies and profit from our cultures for an absurd amount of money is ridiculous and hurtful . If Chanel truly want to respect Aboriginal cultures , the first place they should start is discontinue this product and issue an apology . Perhaps the next step would be supporting existing black designers . " Beyond offending Indigenous people , the existence of a Chanel boomerang prompted questions about who would buy it .

In a manifesto that was leaked in draft form last week , Mr Corbyn is expected to offer an end to austerity whilst renationalising the railways , the energy sector and Royal Mail . But he will also promise to manage the country " within our means " amid criticism from the Conservatives that his promises have not been fully costed . The Labour leader will say : " Parents worrying about the prospects for their children and anxious about the growing needs of their own elderly parents . " Young people struggling to find a secure job and despairing of ever getting a home of their own . " Children growing up in poverty ; students leaving college burdened with debt ; workers who have gone years without a real pay rise coping with stretched family budgets . " Labour 's mission , over the next five years , is to change all that . " Our manifesto spells out how - with a programme that is radical and responsible . " It 's a programme that will reverse our national priorities to put the interests of the many first @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ means . " And it will lead us through Brexit while putting the preservation of jobs first . " This is a programme of hope . The Tory campaign , by contrast , is built on one word : fear .

" Theresa May will disagree of course . " So I say to her : Prime Minister , come out of hiding and let 's have that debate on television so millions can make up their minds . " According to the leaked draft , Labour will offer to scrap tuition fees , and get rid of the so-called bedroom tax .

To pay for its plans , Labour has said it would raise corporation tax to 26% by 2022 , bringing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for a " Robin Hood tax " on financial transactions raising another ? 26bn .

The Government has been accused of " dithering " over a new nuclear power station after plans to build a 102-mile power line connecting it to the transmission network were put on hold . National Grid said it wanted time to consider a strategic review into the Moorside project in Cumbria announced by developer NuGen . The GMB said the news was the latest in a string of setbacks for the multibillion pound power station after French firm Engie , which was backing the project , pulled out last month . Toshiba had already announced it was reviewing its overseas nuclear operations after a multibillion write-down on the value of its US nuclear arm Westinghouse . National Grid said in a statement : " NuGen has announced it is conducting a strategic review to look at its ownership and technology vendor . " NuGen is confident this review will lead to an outcome that provides a more robust , stable and sustainable platform to meet its commitment to deliver the next generation of nuclear power . " As @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ NuGen are pausing work on their development consent order for Moorside . " In light of this , we have decided to pause our work to consent NuGen 's connection and take the time to understand NuGen 's programme to make sure our projects are aligned . " It is important that we make sure the consents run broadly in parallel , so the Planning Inspectorate can examine the consent application for our connection knowing there is a strong need for it . " Despite this pause , we are confident the connection will still be ready when NuGen requires it and are continuing to work closely with them . " Justin Bowden , national officer of the GMB , said : " How many kicks in the teeth for the desperately-needed new nuclear plant at Moorside will it take to bring politicians of all colours to their senses ? " Britain must have the reliable zero carbon nuclear power that Moorside will bring as part of the balanced energy mix , alongside renewables and gas . " GMB has repeatedly called for the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ensuring our crucial energy requirements continue to be exposed to the obvious risks arising out of passing the responsibility to foreign governments and foreign companies . " The collapse of Toshiba spectacularly demonstrates why the UK should be in control of its own energy destiny . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'get' is used transitively with 'much' as its object, and 'out of seeing politicians having a go at each other' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Some real quality in this year 's top ten ( Picture : Getty ; Metro.co.uk ) This Premier League season might have been all about the managers as Pep Guardiola , Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte took up new jobs in the summer to pit their wits against an already A-list cast including Jurgen Klopp , Arsene Wenger and Mauricio Pochettino . But now that the season is done we 're looking at which players have impressed the most in each area of the pitch , and now it 's the turn of the country 's best midfielders to go under the microscope . It can be harder to pin down precisely what a midfielder is in the modern game , with so many players now expected to fill a variety of roles ; and in Kevin De Bruyne , Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli , to name but a few , it can be hard to distinguish as they go from deep-lying playmaker , to winger , to forward from one minute to the next . To @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ players who 've played at least the majority of their games in a central midfield role , be it attacking or defensive . From 10 to 1 , here 's our ranking of the best Premier League midfielders of the 2016/17 season . Let us know if you agree : Inconsistent as he can be , there 's no doubt that Ross Barkley has the makings of a top class player in his locker . The 23-year-old has had another productive campaign for Everton this term , contributing five goals and eight assists to the Toffees ' Premier League campaign . Ross Barkley continues to impress with Everton ( Picture : Getty ) Occasionally filling in out wide , Barkley has looked at his best in an advanced midfield role with the freedom to link play and chip in with goals . His versatility and skill surely mean he 's going to work his way back into the England fold sooner rather than later . Plus he celebrated one of his goals before he even scored it -- that 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's how good he is. Perhaps not at his influential best this season , but David Silva remains a key part of how Manchester City play . David Silva has been a joy to watch again this term ( Picture : Getty ) The Spain international is perfect for Pep Guardiola 's vision of football , and has unsurprisingly shone with seven goals and nine assists in all competitions , despite the club being set to finish trophyless for the campaign . Ahead of what is likely to be a summer of big change at City with doubts over the futures of stars such as Sergio Aguero and Yaya Toure , Silva is one player who 'll almost certainly be sticking around and doing his thing again next season . Ander Herrera has been like a new player this season ( Picture : Getty ) Undoubtedly one of the most improved players in the Premier League , Ander Herrera has become a real battler and leader for Manchester United in a slightly new role @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ midfielders ) Previously an attack-minded playmaker contributing more in the final third , Herrera now operates in a far more defensive position , and has seemed to relish the change . Only two players have averaged more interceptions than him this season , and both are defenders . Top of the league for tackles per game ( 4.2 on average ) , Everton 's Idrissa Gueye has proven a superb signing and is already being linked with bigger clubs . Idrissa Gueye has proven a great buy for Everton ( Picture : Getty ) The Senegal international certainly something of an N'Golo Kante about him , and his tremendous work rate would make him an asset to any side with major ambitions . Everton wo n't want to lose him so soon , but even if they do it should be at a fairly sizeable profit after landing him for just ? 7million from relegated Aston Villa . He may only be in 6th place , but he 's made it in . Everyone @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ argue he 's looked worth the ? 89million so far . Paul Pogba is the most expensive footballer of all time ( Picture : Getty ) Still , the 24-year-old arrived from Juventus late on in the summer without a pre-season , and without a great deal of time to rest after making the Euro 2016 final . He 's also had to quickly gel in a team that clearly is n't clicking under Jose Mourinho , with the lack of options up front meaning the side have been overly reliant on Zlatan Ibrahimovic for goals . So often this season Pogba has created chances that have n't been finished . He could 've scored more himself , of course , but he 's also been one of the unluckiest players in the league in that department , with only Kevin De Bruyne hitting the woodwork more often . A solid start , but Pogba 's shown enough to suggest that there 's more to come . Victor Wanyama helped send Spurs out of the Lane on a high ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ midfield , Victor Wanyama is another shining example of the quality you can still get without forking out ridiculous sums of money . Costing just ? 11million from Southampton , the 25-year-old has slotted in seamlessly and contributed hugely to Spurs ' strong defensive record and new-found refusal to being beaten . To top it all off , he even scored against Manchester United to help Tottenham win their final game at White Hart Lane . He 's tailed off slightly as the season 's gone on , but at his best this term Adam Lallana was absolutely sublime for Liverpool . No wonder Jurgen Klopp loves Adam Lallana ( Picture : Getty ) With seven goals and seven assists in total , the England international flourished in a fairly free role as part of a central midfield three , often drifting wide to good effect and showing himself capable of creating something out of nothing . While Sadio Mane and Philippe Coutinho have stolen the plaudits for much of the campaign , Lallana has arguably been the most @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Surely the most underrated player in the Premier League , Mousa Dembele has been vital for Tottenham 's cause once again this season . Mousa Dembele may be the most underrated player in the league ( Picture : Getty ) The Belgian has a bit of everything to his game : he works hard , breaks up play , he can pick out a pass , and he 's near impossible to get the ball off once he gets moving . If he scored more he 'd be pretty much the perfect midfielder and would certainly attract more headlines , but Spurs fans wo n't care as his superb partnership with Wanyama is set to launch them to their highest Premier League finish . Another player without a clearly defined role , Dele Alli has mostly been primarily used in the centre for Spurs this season . Dele Alli 's remarkable rise has continued this season ( Picture : Getty ) Occasionally starting on the left , the 21-year-old still tends to drift @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Lampard-like in his ability to break into the box and nick a goal . It 's hard to believe how quickly he 's risen to being one of the stars of the Premier League after playing in League One just two years ago , but Alli is certainly one of the most promising young players in world football right now , and Spurs could find it increasingly hard to keep hold of him . There was only going to be one winner here and that 's the PFA and FWA Player of the Year N'Golo Kante . Signed from Leicester City last summer , Kante is a Premier League champion again with Chelsea , and has again played a major role in guiding his team to success . The tireless Frenchman could yet earn himself an FA Cup winners ' medal to go with his second league title , and it 'll be great to see him mixing it up with the best in the Champions League next year . Premier League winner -- 2015/16 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , 2016/17 PFA Player of the Year -- 2016/17 FWA Footballer of the Year -- 2016/17 Leicester City Players ' Player of the Year -- 2015/16 London Football Awards Player of the Year -- 2017 Many have inevitably compared Kante with Pogba after both made high-profile moves this summer , but the 26-year-old is very much his own player and unique in the current game for how incredibly influential he 's been at both his clubs in England . Having lifted Leicester from 14th to 1st in the space of a season , he 's lifted Chelsea from 10th to 1st in the same time frame . The only question now is , how much further can he go ? |

The writer used these three characters to tell the true story of how a group of nine men of predominantly Pakistani origin groomed white girls for sex in the Greater Manchester area between 2005 and 2012 . It was no secret to the police and social workers what was going on but , shamefully , fear of being seen as racist hampered them from accusing the abusers . Political correctness kept the men free to do as they wished for at least seven long years . However , after heroic attempts to bring them to trial , the men were found guilty and sentenced for up to 25 years in jail . Horrifically , the principal witness at the trial -- the Holly character in Three Girls -- had been abused by all nine of them .

She is sole director and shareholder of Flat Cap Ltd , which deals with payments for her acting , writing and directing -- a cosy arrangement that can slash tax bills ! Then she appeared in Three Girls , playing a Birkenstock-wearing sexual health worker described as ' Erin Brockovich in an anorak ' in her battle for the abused girls .

No , Three Girls is not the sort of thing you would uncork a bottle of wine and snuggle down to enjoy of an evening . The performances -- especially from the three young actresses -- may have been flawless , but few of us could have felt wonderful after enduring its three , relentlessly grim hours . However , I did feel I knew a little more about something important , something terrible that happened in a British town , and about the awful mutation in our society that allowed it to happen . Yet I do take issue with where Three Girls unstintingly laid the blame for this outrage -- at the door of the local authorities . Certainly , there were terrible failings by police and social services . These girls and many others were let down terribly , of that there is no doubt . Yet let us not forget who the real culprits are here . Not the cops , not the social workers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a loving home for their daughters -- although they must accept their share of the blame . The ultimate wrongdoers are the monsters who cultivated and then repeatedly molested these lost girls . Some of these men were pillars of Rochdale 's Pakistani community . Among the nine men jailed , one was a Muslim preacher . They were married fathers , taxi drivers , restaurant workers -- people who were respected by their neighbours but did unspeakable things in private . The ' Daddy ' who actually led the gang -- Shabir Ahmed -- is locked up in Leeds prison and , like other offenders , is currently fighting efforts to deport him back to his native Pakistan . As we saw last night , in words taken from the actual court transcripts , he tried to dismiss the prosecution as ' white lies ' and called the judge and jury ' racist ' . Is it too much to hope that all nine of them are kicked out of our tolerant , beautiful country ? That 's why Three Girls is so important @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shone a light on a fetid corner of modern British life . And because it did , a lot of girls may be a little bit safer on the streets tonight . We do n't need your lectures , Ched Ched Evans , that fine and upstanding defender of women 's virtue , has spoken out on the issue of female safety . In an interview with The Times , the Sheffield United player warned women they are putting themselves in danger by drinking because there are ' genuine rapists out there ' who will ' prey on them ' . Genuine rapists ? As opposed to what ? Assailants who do n't really mean it ? Last year , you might recall that Evans was found not guilty of raping a 19-year-old woman . Unusually , this was his second trial , having been convicted for the first time in 2012 and sentenced to five years in jail .

Perhaps he believes his rehabilitation will be complete if he makes the right concerned noises about sexual consent -- and his belief that the police only targeted him because he was famous . Shall we remind ourselves of the facts ? One sordid night six years ago , Evans responded to a 3am text from a friend that he had ' got a girl ' and taken her back to their hotel . Evans whizzed round in a taxi , had sex with the girl after his mate did , while his brother tried to film events through the bedroom window . Evans later made his exit via the hotel 's fire escape -- ever the gentleman ! Such touching concern for the safety of a young woman . He really shames us all .

Why all these British boys ? Perhaps she loves their cultured accents , which can make lots of Americans sound like loudmouthed jocks , even when they are not . Perhaps she thinks they give her a touch of class and a whiff of exotica , being foreign but not too foreign ? Who knows the secrets of the Swiftian heart ?

Bed and breakfast owners in Inverness have erupted in fury over the negative business impact of the north 's new parking enforcement scheme . Guests staying in Kenneth Street and Greig Street are being forced to move their cars by 8am in the morning to avoid fines , then return for breakfast before walking hundreds of yards back to their cars with luggage . Many who arrive in the afternoon to check-in have to wait until 6pm to park near their place of stay to avoid a ticket -- and often struggle to find a space . And guesthouse owners in the area say they are restricted to one visitor parking permit per household , and that buying extra " business " permits at ? 176 each would cost about ? 1,000 a year to cover all guests with cars . A paper petition to change the scheme 's operating times -- from 8am-6pm to to 10am-4pm -- has so far drawn 27 signatures . Since the local authority 's parking enforcement scheme went live in October last year , a total of 4,461 tickets have been issued in Inverness . Kenny @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Street , said the new wardens should exercise " more discretion , " and that the council should consider allowing visitors to display notes on their windscreens telling parking officers when they will leave . Mr MacKay , who has run his guesthouse for 12 years , said : " My question to the council is , where are we supposed to move our guests to at 8am ? At the moment they are parking at Tesco , which is up to two hours , but they ( Tesco ) will soon catch on . " We are up in arms about it . I am feeling like they are trying to put us out of business . The next thing is we will be getting bad reviews on Trip Advisor , and this might stop guests from returning . Some people will get fed up because there is no parking so it will have a massive effect . I would say 85% of my guests come in cars . " Arafeh Alashi , who runs the Quaich guesthouse in Greig Street and started the petition , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ handed a ticket recently while parked outside as he was shown in to drop off his luggage . Steve Bowsher , who runs Acer Glen bed and breakfast in Greig Street , claimed his guests received as many tickets in the first week of the new restrictions as he and his guests did in the previous three years . He also suggested that Sunday restrictions be cancelled , more parking be created where there are double yellow lines , and no parking officers be employed during major city events such as the Etape Loch Ness cycle . A Highland Council spokeswoman said the council 's parking management team are " actively engaging " with stakeholders on a live review of parking in Inverness , and have met with Inverness BID to discuss the review of the current capacity in the city centre . A report will be presented to a future City of Inverness Area Committee for members ' consideration on the outcome of the review . The review is considering a number of factors among existing city centre parking including , for example , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ existing regulations . The spokeswoman said : " The review is also looking at the length of the parking enforcement hours , times of day , and days of the week . " All of this is being carried out while the roll out of parking enforcement continues throughout the rest of the region . The spokeswoman also said that the council makes dispensation for tourism-related businesses as they can purchase additional visitor parking permits for their premises , adding : " Businesses should contact the council 's Parking Enforcement Management to discuss any issues that they may have .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It discusses the issue of families being priced out of buying a home, but it does not involve a verb in the V1 slot that fits the semantic classifications provided (e.g., deception, force, persuasion). Additionally, there is no VP2[-ing] predicate that would allow for a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'priced out of buying a home' is more idiomatic and does not align with the grammatical properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The refusal to name the eight clubs who missed two deadlines to pass on whatever information they had in the sexual abuse inquiry is baffling The FA , based at Wembley , has kept people in the dark despite Greg Clarke saying : " It 's certainly the biggest crisis I can remember and we 're trying to be completely transparent . " Photograph : Julian Finney/Getty Images It has been six months now since football was plunged into a sexual abuse scandal and , though it is difficult sometimes to keep track of the figures , it was 560 people at the last count who had made the life-changing decision to break their silence and turn what began as a trickle into what Greg Clarke , chairman of the Football Association , has subsequently described as a tidal wave . The true number of alleged victims will actually be far higher if we also take into account those who are too emotionally damaged to come forward or feel compelled to stay silent to protect their own families . Every single person affected seems @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , or definite , victims . Many have been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder and suffer from anxiety , depression , insomnia , panic attacks and flashbacks . One told me recently how he could still vividly remember the mouthwash on his coach 's breath , more than 30 years on . For another , it was the smell of Kouros aftershave . It is difficult even to comprehend the horrors they had to endure , or what it must be like trying not to let those childhood experiences shape their entire lives . There is also , perhaps unsurprisingly , an element of suspicion when it comes to the football authorities and the motives , say , of the FA bearing in mind -- and this is something I have kept back until now -- the tactics the organisation used to ingratiate itself with some of the people who have been lost and brutalised in the system and who , presumably , might have damaging things to say about the way the sport is run . Gestures of goodwill , mainly -- the offer of an expensive hotel @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an executive box at Wembley . You get the idea . The FA says it is to build and , in some cases , repair relationships . Sweeteners , would be another word for it . The kind of stuff , at the risk of sounding cynical , the FA might not necessarily want you or I to know about . What the FA needs to understand , perhaps , is that the people who have suffered in silence all those years are not going to be won over with freebies . They want to be heard and , more than anything , they want to be able to trust what they hear back , without the sense that it is merely lip service or that Clarke , for one , might not actually go through with what he says . And Clarke , on the surface , always did like to portray the image of a man who wanted there to be transparency . " I have a propensity to think that transparency is a wonderful thing , " he once said . " When you see @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ happen . " That was back in his days as chairman of the Football League and , having switched to the FA , it was the same again when everything started to come out last November . Everybody at the FA knew the importance of getting this one right , he said . " It 's certainly the biggest crisis I can remember and we 're trying to be completely transparent . " Unfortunately , Clarke seems to have a strange idea about what transparency means , judging by the way the FA has pulled down the shutters since the Guardian 's disclosure last week that eight professional clubs had in effect blanked the independent inquiry . All those clubs have now , I 'm reliably informed , supplied the relevant information , presumably suspecting they might be in for some damaging publicity now the story had reached a national newspaper . But they need not have worried . The FA has refused , point-blank , to name the guilty parties , no matter that it goes all the way back to 11 January since those clubs were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ deadlines -- 15 March and then the end of April -- were subsequently ignored , undermining and challenging the entire process . Or , indeed , that as late as Friday , 128 days on , one club still had not cooperated , for reasons we will probably never know . Is this Clarke 's idea of transparency ? It feels more like an attempt to hush everything up , which is precisely what the FA promised it would not do , and it would certainly be appreciated if he could explain how the decision to give these clubs a free pass tallies with his previous comments . Unfortunately , a series of telephone calls trying to get an explanation , via his clutch of press aides , has yielded nothing . It is difficult not to feel misled and not for the first time if we recall Clarke 's words on 29 November last year , two weeks into this scandal , when the FA 's top man delivered an update on what had been happening behind the scenes and promised the governing body " will bring @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . It was mid-December before the truth came out , via other sources . Dario Gradi , the director of football at Crewe , had , in fact , been suspended from all football-related activities on 25 November ( no reason has been given ) and the FA had tried to keep it quiet . Clarke , promising transparency and an open line of information , had stood in front of the television cameras and not mentioned it once . Unfortunately for the FA , these are the kind of issues that spread distrust at exactly the time when the figures keep rising -- 252 suspects named , 311 clubs and 1,432 referrals to Operation Hydrant , as of 18 April -- and the current regime are trying not to look as hard-faced as their predecessors . This is the organisation , remember , whose lack of cooperation with Soccer 's Foul Play , the 1997 Channel 4 documentary about sexual abuse within the sport , was summed up by the moment the Dispatches reporter Deborah Davies approached the FA 's then director of coaching and education @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Gate . Davies wanted to know whether the FA should bring in rules to protect children and prevent football being a place where paedophiles had easy access . Hughes did not even break stride , marching past as if she did n't exist . Perhaps the inquiry will find out why those kind of attitudes were prevalent . Hopefully we will learn why the FA 's verdict a few years earlier , in response to the former managing director of one club asked for a wide-reaching investigation , was a three-line letter , seen by this correspondent , passing on the news " there is no case to answer " . Maybe we will find out whether there was a link between the FA withdrawing its funds from a five-year study into child-protection policies in 2003 around the time it was giving Sven-Goran Eriksson a ? 1m-a-year pay rise and saving for the new Wembley . Or why the culture at the time meant 10 of the 14 FA staff who were asked for interviews as part of that project did not respond and , according to official @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bullied " out of cooperating . Maybe one day a suitable reason will also be conjured up to explain why those eight clubs -- almost one out of every 11 in the professional game -- did not bother responding to the inquiry , delaying and obstructing the process over four months until Clive Sheldon , the barrister in charge of the investigation , asked the FA to intervene . If there were legitimate reasons ( and we can guarantee the clubs will go for the default setting of blaming administrative issues ) , let us hear them . And let us know why the FA , having talked about being completely transparent , went back on its promises . Until then , however , Clarke might have to understand if there are people involved in this process who view him and his organisation through suspicious eyes . When everything is signed off -- and it does n't help that thousands of boxes of FA archives have been kept in so little order -- it will be Clarke and his colleagues who have the final say about how much @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ point , do you trust the FA to be transparent ? It would be nice to think the people there can be taken at their word ; on recent evidence , sadly , it is n't always that easy . Gareth Southgate names his next England squad on Thursday and it does not bode well for Wayne Rooney that it would come as a jolt if the former captain -- a role we should now discuss in the past tense judging by some of the manager 's remarks -- is offered a way back . Unfortunately for Rooney , it is just as likely after his absence from the last set of fixtures that he will be overlooked again for the games against Scotland and France and , if so , it feels as if we will have reached the point where a veil can be draped over his international career . Rooney has actually scored three of Manchester United 's last six goals and , to give him his due , he has also started their last four Premier @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ season . Yet it is a deception . His contribution over two legs of a Europa League semi-final against Celta Vigo , namely the games Jos ? Mourinho has prioritised , amounted to four minutes as a substitute . He is back in United 's starting lineup for their domestic fixtures to keep back other players for the final and if he is involved in any way in Sunday 's game against Crystal Palace it will just reinforce what he must already suspect . After 13 years , a record number of goals and his own portfolio of great United moments , Rooney is preparing to say his goodbyes and could conceivably do it in a side largely made up of youth-team graduates , currently 24 points off the top and chained to sixth position . United have registered fewer league wins under Mourinho than in any other campaign over the last quarter of a century and it probably sums up Rooney 's current position that nobody seems to think they would be higher up the table had he played more regularly . He will not be short @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at Old Trafford but it is hardly the goodbye he must have envisaged . Tony Adams has reached the end of a difficult spell in charge of Granada with defeats in all his seven games , only two goals scored , more conceded than he will probably wish to remember and not a single minute when his team , now relegated to Spain 's second division , have led their opponents . Adams inherited a poor side and he might have some relevant points when it comes to Ars ? ne Wenger but in the circumstances the timing is unfortunate , to say the least , that he has a book coming out where he says his old manager at Arsenal does not know how to coach . |

The story of the Manson Family has been told many times . What made you decide to write your own version ? The crime aspect is the least important part of the novel . It 's much more a story about the everyday violence of girlhood , the daily brutalities . It was almost a challenge I gave to myself -- can I write a book where a literal crime serves as a backdrop to these more psychological crimes ? What part did counterculture play for you , growing up in California ? My parents were California natives who were around the same age as Evie narrator of Cline 's novel The Girls in 1969 , and their cultural touchstones became my touchstones . Even just in Sonoma County , where I 'm from , there were dozens of communes and experimental communities , many of which still survive in some form or another , so 1969 never feels very far away . At the same time , I was n't trying to make a precise record of 1969 -- it was important that there were n't distracting anachronisms , but I was most concerned with making @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ great at capturing the teenage mind -- how did you access that part of your mind again ? Being a teenager is so much about extremes -- everything is black and white , with very little room for nuance or reflection . You 're coming up against the adult world and trying to navigate your place in it . It was exhausting , even in fiction , to remember feeling that way . I 'm amazed teenagers are allowed to drive cars . How was it growing up as one of seven siblings ? Chaotic . Loud . A lot of my interest in communes probably came out of sharing space with that many brothers and sisters -- I 'm interested in group dynamics , the small feints and shifts of power and competition . A commune is a funhouse version of a family , its concerns pressurised . Many of the book 's characters are enthralled by fame -- what 's the appeal ? In the world of the book , being famous or being any kind of celebrity is this hyper-exaggerated form of being seen , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lot of what drives Evie . For me , it was that idea of riffing off who is seen and for what reason . The book focuses on the dynamics between girls . How do you feel female relationships have been depicted in culture before ? It 's heartening that there 's an upswell of interest in telling stories about women 's lives , but I still think we treat authors who write stories about women or girls as people who owe us a referendum or polemic on feminism . I just want characters that feel complicated in the way all humans are complicated , who do n't have to teach anyone anything or stand for anything beyond the world of the story itself . Do you think fiction can show the ways reasonable people can be seduced by extreme views ? For me , writing and reading fiction comes from a desire to explore the far reaches of human experience . What does it take to get from here to there ? And that 's something I 'm very interested in -- what if our moral boundaries @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ right kind of pressure ? At the same time , I do n't think fiction offers answers . That 's not why I read , and that 's not why I write -- I 'm interested in ambiguities , not lectures . Congratulations on making the Granta best young American novelists list . How important are recognitions like these to young writers ? I think it would be a mistake to take them too seriously , or impart too much meaning on to them . For me , it 's of course lovely to get recognition since it 's such a private , solitary business . But at the same time I think these external things are not where the real pleasure of writing comes from . How easy is it for you to distance yourself from people 's responses to your work ? That 's partly why I still have a dumbphone . As a writer , where I write from is solitary mental landscapes , so trying to preserve that as much as possible is really important . What 's your relationship with the internet @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ everyone uses it . I limit my own access , just because I know my personality . So I remove the option as much as possible , but of course when I have access I 'm an idiot like everyone else . Are you ever tempted to get a smartphone ? It 's really only a problem when I 'm travelling -- I end up asking for directions a lot . Read more You studied creative writing at Columbia -- what was most useful about that ? For me it was really helpful to engage with the idea of being read . You have workshops and 15 people who come to your work fresh and just respond to it . It sped up the process of realising that readers can only engage with what you 've put on the page , they ca n't engage with your good intentions or your ideas about your own work . What have you been reading lately ? I just finished The Idiot by Elif Batuman . I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of it . It presented this almost moment-by-moment experience of life , in a way that I just felt Batuman had so much control . There 's so much wit and pleasure in her writing you feel very comfortable being in the world she 's created . You did some acting when you were younger . What was that like ? It 's been nice to write , which is in many ways the opposite of acting , where you are the vessel for other people 's visions or ideas about the world .

Reasoning
×
The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('that') + V1 ('frustrates') + NP object ('the hell') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('achieving success'). It also induces a prevention interpretation, where the subject causes the object to be prevented from achieving success. The verb 'frustrates' fits into the category of verbs that arouse irritation or anger, which is one of the means classifications for V1 in the construction. Additionally, the NP object 'the hell' is atypical but still fits within the construction's allowances for non-prototypical objects.

The first day following the end of the 2016-17 season offered no clarity regarding Ross Barkley 's contract situation . With no apparent movement on his contract negotiations , the 23-year-old is on course to enter the final year of his existing deal on 1st July , a situation that Ronald Koeman is on record as saying is not acceptable in terms of his squad-building efforts . The Dutchman has said that he only wants to retain players who want to play for Everton and is loathe to risk losing Barkley for nothing more than a development fee next year . When quizzed on the topic at recent press conferences , Koeman has said that he wanted an answer either way on the player 's future by the end of the season which concluded on Sunday with another away defeat at Arsenal . Predictably , there was no official word from the club yesterday and there is unlikely to be any kind of communication from Goodison Park regarding Barkley until he either agrees to new terms or he is sold during the upcoming transfer window @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with the Everton board , though , and there are suggestions in the media that the club will schedule further talks with his representatives . The Mirror are claiming that a ? 100,000-a-week contract offer is on the table and suggest that he could be given a few more days to mull his future . Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United are rumoured in the press to be interested in Barkley while media reports last week said that Everton were looking for a fee of around ? 50m .

Disclaimer Rick Tarleton 1Posted 23/05/2017 at 06:19:16 Sigurdsson who on the stats finished considerably below Barkley as a provider last season ( Barkley finished fifth according to The Observer ) wants at least , according to the media , ? 120,000 a week to come here . Why Koeman so dislikes the boy is a mystery to me ? James Watts 3Posted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ last question is an easy one to answer . I do n't think it 's that Koeman dislikes him , I think he is simply ambivalent towards him as Barkley is a bang average player and has been shite for most of the season . Journos keep asking Koeman about Barkley so they can make a big deal out of it and get a headline . Will Mabon 4Posted 23/05/2017 at 07:39:09 James , if Barkley has been the fifth best provider of chances in the Prem. this season how can he be " Shite " ? Maybe I should also ask those that think the second highest goal scorer of the season is shite . James Macdonald 5Posted 23/05/2017 at 07:41:59 The stats are interesting as Barkley created more last season and if you take off the dead ball goals , they both scored the same amount through open play . Barkley had one free kick to 2 by Sigurdsson and Sigurdsson scored 3 penalties . Barkley has a better pass completion rate and is quicker . Sigurdsson played for a struggling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ better off keeping Barkley than lash out 25 million and 120k a week on Sigurdsson . I wonder if they could play in the same team a la Erickson and Dele Ali ? Tony Abrahams 6Posted 23/05/2017 at 07:43:44 Only rumours but I keep hearing that Barkley is signing for West Ham ... Will Mabon 8Posted 23/05/2017 at 07:56:10 Tony - really ? Maybe he just ca n't wait to get in a new stadium . I 'd be very surprised . Jim Bennings 9Posted 23/05/2017 at 08:07:19 Rick You must be watching a different Barkley from the one from the one that 's frustratingly pissed me off all season ! ! Did you see Barkley on Sunday Rick ? ? Brought on for Davies to do what exactly ? Did you see him at Anfield , at West Ham ? ? Have you watched him all season ? ? If your happy to just fend off 8th placed teams then keep Barkley and keep dreaming about this " unique talent " that we rarely see . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ info from but all I know is Barkley has stuttered to five goals this season from attacking central midfield , never turns up against better opponents and looks no further down the line than four years ago . John Daley 10Posted 23/05/2017 at 08:08:37 " Barkley ... Sigurdsson . I wonder if they could play in the same team a la Erickson and Dele Alli ? " Two attacking midfielders ? In the same team ? At the same time ? Operating together ? Possibly at the expense of a defensive player ? For Everton ? Considering I can never see Everton ever stray again from this two holding midfielders fascination ( even though it rarely works against better opposition ) . So no it 's unlikely you 'll see two attacking central midfielders as the norm at Everton . James Watts 13Posted 23/05/2017 at 08:26:35 Will #4 . Apart from a decent 3 months this season , Barkley has been shite . No matter what the stats say . I 've watched every game so it 's an opinion based on my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do n't agree ? Trevor Peers 14Posted 23/05/2017 at 08:27:08 Rick is entitled to his opinion , I just want Everton to sign better player 's than we already have . The wages do n't or should n't matter to the fans , that 's for greedy agents to sort out . Barkley should sign , what has been described as a good contract offer and fight for his place . Signing Sigurdsson should not be seen as a threat , he should welcome the help he 'll get . If Ross ca n't handle the competition , wants a guaranteed start or just ca n't work with Koeman , maybe he should move on and quickly . James Stewart 15Posted 23/05/2017 at 08:46:07 Chances created is a joke . Have a look at what constitutes a chance . Barkley does n't score or assist anywhere near enough for someone in his position , simple as . Nitesh Kanchan 16Posted 23/05/2017 at 08:51:29 Barkley needs an experienced midfielder besides him like Pogba had pirlo or look at Isco who was initially struggling but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and stepped up . He wont learn anything from watching videos unless he gets to see the real thing and do it with them day-in and day-out . I fear that is something he will get with likes of Man Utd or Spurs with Mata and Eriksen unless the board is ready to get player of that calibre . 75% of time he makes wrong decisions in the final third . Barkley has the talent no doubt . It is joyful to watch when he is running with the ball at his feet and equally terrible when he is trying to pick out a pass and lesser the said about crossing the better . Fitness has improved under Koeman . This will be the make or break transfer window . If we get that midfielder then we can get into top 4 next season else it will another disaster season just like that Europa League season we had under Martinez . Rick Tarleton 17Posted 23/05/2017 at 08:51:54 When watching Barkley and whoever is there to help him in an attacking midfield role , my instinct @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Lukaku was 503rd out of 503 Premier players last season for lack of movement . When you are a midfielder , unless there is movement you come to a dead stop . Lukaku is an excellent finisher but he knows what he wants , the wonder ball slipped past the defender for him to run on to . He rarely makes a run to open up the channels for the midfielders to come through . Sigurdsson , Barkley or whoever is there next season , if Lukaku stays which is doubtful , will have to learn how to play with an inactive striker which complicates their job . Sheedy , Steven , Bracewell and Reid were so good because there were Gray and Sharp creating space tirelessly , before that the holy trinity had Husband or Whittle and Royle and before that Young , Vernon and Morrissey were able to exploit space . I think sometimes you need to look beyond the obvious before sweeping judgements are made about players and their ability . Will Mabon 18Posted 23/05/2017 at 09:00:26 James ( Watts ) , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ based on what we saw in earlier times . To deem him shite though , no , I do n't agree . He is n't . He 's carried the burden of being essentially the sole attacking link for much of the season , in a frequently " Safe " , defensive set-up , away from home in particular . As you say , he has played several good months . I use my eyes just like you , and stats , too . Lukaku has what could be deemed shortcomings when compared to other , different strikers but his goals ( stats ) show him as productive to the team . Judged in this way Sigurdsson , as a different player to Barkely , shows no great statistical improvement this season . Trevor Peers 19Posted 23/05/2017 at 09:09:37 Will , Koeman has decided he wants Sigurdsson to join Everton , why is that an issue ? He will improve the squad . Do n't you want quality player 's to improve the squad or are you just obsessed with what happens to Ross Barkley @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at 09:29:30 I reckon if I played as many games as Barkley then I would get better stats than him . Seriously , if you take the free kicks all season then at some point , someone is going to nod one in . All this talk of stats all the time is just blind people trying to justify their opinion . Anyone who actually watches Ross play sees that all his failings are ones which CA N'T be measured by stats . English football all over , stat stat stat to show how right I am when results and performances constantly show otherwise . Yet it 's the media outlets that use these stats to enhance the reputations of these bang average players . Like Lukaku , can score a goal but is completely detrimental to the rest of the team . Everyone says " how do you replace his goals " and I always say " with the rest of the team " . Lukaku has great stats , Barkley has great stats , does anyone actually think that either of them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't . They are selfish pricks only interested in their own stats and records . They can both do one then perhaps we can move on finally from the Martinez debacle because I believe that there is still some shit from that guy floating around in their heads . Clive Rogers 21Posted 23/05/2017 at 09:35:03 I think Koeman believes he ca n't rely on Barkley . He 's had some good games but has consistently flopped in the big games . Two stinkers against Liverpool . Poor recently against Chelsea and Arsenal . Koeman wants someone he knows will turn up . Gio Mero 22Posted 23/05/2017 at 09:43:35 I do n't have any statistics in front of me to support this but my feeling is that Barkley has been much more productive at Goodison than away ( more so than most of his other team mates ) . If we accept this I would go on and suggest it might have a lot to do with our tactical set up . How were the rest of our attacking force in our away games ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ron . How about you stick with Ross for our home games given our home form was good enough to challenge for top 4 and you try that Sigurdsson guy in our away games and see if Ross was the problem as it is sometimes suggested ? I know the real point of this situation is the financial implications of Ross not signing the contract . Just a bit of fantasy football on my part Martin Mason 23Posted 23/05/2017 at 09:50:51 For me , it 's irrelevant now how good Barkley is or is n't . He 's calling the tunes and he is acting very professionally by saying nothing . He is 100% in the right not to sign a contract if it does n't suit him to . He 's a young lad with a great future but mature enough now not to be bullied by Koeman . I admire his courage in willing to risk becoming a small fish in a big pond but I believe it will benefit him . In general Ross has improved a lot this season but , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Everton side that is unbalanced and , I believe incapable of doing what Koeman wants them to and struggling as a result . The teams who will come in for Ross see him not as he is for Everton but how he will fit into their sides . Will Mabon 24Posted 23/05/2017 at 09:57:32 " Do n't you want quality player 's to improve the squad or are you just obsessed with what happens to Ross Barkley . The mind boggles . " I think you might 've boggled there , Trevor . Where do you get that I do n't want quality players ? Never said it , and in fact , the opposite if you read some of my other postings . I do n't want Barkley to go . We 'll be the less for it if he goes . Sigurdsson is a good player , a different player to Barkley , not a better version of the same player . There 's room for them both , or could be if it ever looks like Koeman wants to develop a genuine @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the one-in-one-out philosophy of " Improving " the team . Replacing Barkley with Sigurdsson will change the team but not improve it in my obsessed ( read : concerned/interested ) opinion . James Macdonald 25Posted 23/05/2017 at 09:57:42 James Stewart ( #15 ) , ? if anything the assists stats rather than the chances created stats are a " joke " as surely the assists column is more a reflection of the finishing . Anyway , looks like the club have made a serious move for Sigurdsson and presumably will eventually agree terms with him . I suspect that reflects not only Barkley 's exit but also that Rooney will not be coming . I rate Sigurdsson but I am sure of my ground that he will be a downgrade on Barkley . Will Mabon 26Posted 23/05/2017 at 10:05:33 " I reckon if I played as many games as Barkley then I would get better stats than him . " Always room for a bit of light relief . Dan Egerton 27Posted 23/05/2017 at 10:06:20 " Anyone who actually watches Ross @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ N'T be measured by stats . " Bang on . Same with Lukaku . When Lukaku is n't moving intelligently without the ball which causes a midfielder to move the ball sideways or backwards in order to keep it , no stat records that failed link up play for example . Dan Egerton 28Posted 23/05/2017 at 10:07:40 " Yet it 's the media outlets that use these stats to enhance the reputations of these bang average players . " Right again Dean . Most media writers do n't watch all games . They just read the stats afterwards and assume . But fans watch their teams play , which is why opinions are often different from either group . Gordon Crawford 29Posted 23/05/2017 at 10:12:21 If Barkley is crap then your in for a bigger shock when you seen how bad Sugurdsson is compared to Ross Trevor Lynes 30Posted 23/05/2017 at 10:17:02 It is irrelevant whether Barkley is better than whoever . The lad will come out of contract and must be sold otherwise the club will make no money . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lad leaves . He has been paid handsomely IMO and if he does not want to remain playing for Everton then he should be sold before he goes out on a free . John Daley 31Posted 23/05/2017 at 10:24:31 " All this talk of stats all the time is just blind people trying to justify their opinion " " it 's the media outlets that use these stats to enhance the reputations of these bang average players . " ------------- " I look at his stats and his attributes and go , ' Wow ? . I think he ? s got the best stats in Europe ( for tackles and interceptions ) even though he ? s been to the African Nations , and that says it all " Blind media meff looking to back up his big words or Director Of Football ( and the bloke tasked with heading up recruitment ) at Everton ? Brent Stephens 32Posted 23/05/2017 at 10:40:37 " Most media writers do n't watch all games . They just read the stats afterwards and assume " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on stats about what media writers watch ? or just assumption ? " But fans watch their teams play ... " So fans watch more games than media writers ? Again , stat or assumption ? Paul Tran 33Posted 23/05/2017 at 10:42:56 Koeman is one in a long line of managers who find the link between Barkley 's talent and lack of consistent impact infuriating . I share it . Barkley might improve with better attack-minded players around him . If it was my job on the line I 'd be thinking hard on this one . Dermot Byrne 35Posted 23/05/2017 at 10:46:23 Brent I watch all games every weekend . Midweek tricky as it is group therapy time then and the anti-psychosis drugs make it hard to form a " strong and stable " opinion . Brent Stephens 36Posted 23/05/2017 at 10:51:02 Dermot , you must be " just about managing " . John G Davies 37Posted 23/05/2017 at 11:13:54 The carry on here you would think we were looking to sell a world class player . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ potentially being a good player after 3 or 4 years . Don Alexander 38Posted 23/05/2017 at 11:54:44 I 'm firmly in the " do n't let stats blind you from the truth " camp . One of the young Unsy squad a while back was quoted on here as saying he and Unsy were delighted that his stats were as high as they were . My heart sank a little . What about the craft , the inspiration ? It seems to me that agents use these stats to win arguments re contracts , so players concentrate on only the safe easy pass , or only the comfortable shot where they have loads and loads of time so as not to impair their stats . If stats were available for doing naff all once the balls 's been lost I 'm pretty sure we 'd have a couple of prime candidates at least from our squad and that , to me , is what frustrates the hell out of achieving success . Dave Roberts 39Posted 23/05/2017 at 13:52:14 Ross , this club has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you a fortune in wages . In return , do us a favour and either sign your contract or ask for a transfer and fuck off . After last night I 'm not in the mood for your selfish fucking about . Get on with it or fuck off elsewhere . John Pierce 40Posted 23/05/2017 at 14:05:25 Let 's be gentle on Ross , eh ? A move might be good for him because he 's stale . Will the nagging , never-ending headache of Martinez 's sycophancy ever go away or is it just tinnitus ? Both as equally annoying I 'm sure . Go easy on him . He has shown high elements of talent . That talent has been scant evident for some time and maybe Roberto took it with him to bequeath to some lucky Belgian under his charge ? When talent , or form let 's say , deserts you , then hard work , and desire often gets you back to the place were the magic happened . Ross seems more ' Desire ' than inspired and the only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ With many Evertonians , the saga has become an epic , and we are bored , so much so were Ross a company he 'd be trading negatively now . Even signing a contract wo n't bring back the local boy love , he 'll have to earn it now . That " small ship " has sailed . But seriously , despite an underwhelming season , he should stay . Playing time would be limited elsewhere , Newcastle & West Ham excepted and having players of the same ilk should inspire him . So why not buy both the Swansea Viking and Lanzini and make them fight it out ? Are diamonds forever ? Michael Lynch 41Posted 23/05/2017 at 14:16:12 If we were being offered Ross by another club for ? 35m and ? 100k a week , I 'd probably say yes please , he looks like our kind of player . But having seen him play for us for a few years , I 'm happy to see him move on . He 's not setting the world on fire , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do n't take the risk we 'll be stuck with the same old same old for another season . Okay we finished 7th but I 'd like to see some changes next time around . Trevor Lynes 42Posted 23/05/2017 at 14:25:22 If Barkley does not want to stay then why waste words on him ? His contract will be up soon and he will be leaving without having the decency to allow EFC to get a proper fee for him . He has been with us since his youth and his development has been with our club 's coaching . He has earned loads of dosh and not really given back enough IMO . Even though he is a local lad , I will not forgive him if he leaves our club in the lurch by just waiting for his contract to run down then bail out on a free . : ( Alex Doyle 43Posted 23/05/2017 at 14:48:21 You would imagine he 's getting sniffy at the prospect of not being automatic first choice . And Koeman needs to strengthen what is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he is going to waltz into a top 4 side , but he must have offers from somewhere . It 's a shame this could not have happened two years ago , it would have been an easier transition and Barkley could have learnt from a more polished and tactically aware 10 . Alan J Thompson 44Posted 23/05/2017 at 15:03:53 I 'm sorry , Koeman 's been banging on about this for how long but decides today to speak to the Board about the player ! Some things never change , it 's the Everton way and must be infectious or it 's in the Manager 's contract until he signs a new one at the end of the coming season . I mean , there 's compensation money to consider . Dan Parker 45Posted 23/05/2017 at 15:07:53 It would n't be the first time the club has tried to turn the fans against an Evertonian player to try and force a move out . I wonder if the manager is at odds with Bill ... ie , Koeman does n't think he 's good @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a key part of our future ? Eddie Dunn 46Posted 23/05/2017 at 15:21:20 This whole scenario reminds me of every transfer window we have . Each summer comes along and there is a problem with recruitment . Last year it was the Euros ( players were so busy that business was done late ) . This year , it is poor Barkley 's fault , the silly boy , not signing a new contract is holding-up business , oh and the bloody Europa League qualifying rounds is going to fuck up our preseason . Oh yes preseason ! Koeman did n't have enough of it last year either , coz he had n't got his new Everton deal done early enough . What is common in all of this ? Yes ! Everton . Our board are inept . What have they been planning all season ? Did nobody realise any of these things was due to happen ? It 's a joke . Same old . We always end up in the last minute of the window with a pile of Average Joes . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ starting to get annoying . The player needs to piss or get off the pot . David Graves 48Posted 23/05/2017 at 15:52:05 Terry , it would n't have been so annoying if Koeman had n't made his public announcements about what needed to happen and by when . Koeman did n't " make it public " -- the contract stalling was in the public arena already ( albeit as a dubious but subsequently proven entirely accurate press rumour ) back in February . Koeman has simply answered journo questions professionally ( as in " what he is paid to do as Everton manager appearing before the press in a press conference , where the press ask him questions , and he answers honestly as only Honest Ron can ! " ) . Neither side " has the whip hand " . Ross can sign or refuse to sign ; the club can accept his decision or withdraw the contract offer and put him up for sale . Let 's not make shit up please . Christine Foster 50Posted 23/05/2017 at 16:37:36 Martin Mason @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ So much for an ultimatum . Looks rather silly now after all his bluster . Ross did n't look as though his heart is in it against Arsenal , but then neither did the other 12 ... But I will say this , the way Everton set up does Barkley no favours . If you are asking him to play behind Lukaku , then just who is he expected to play a defence splitting pass to ? Our 503rd mover ? Hit a shot from 35 yards ? Where is the overlap ? Where are the runners to play the ball behind ? It 's not Barkley that 's the problem ? it 's having 3 or 4 defenders in midfield and no-one making runs . It 's the way we are set up and the lack of pace and quality in those around him . Holgate has been a disaster and we miss Coleman badly , and he was n't having a great season ... Baines hardly puts in a cross these days and Barry , Davis , McCarthy and Gana are all stoppers , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gives more options but a one-trick pony , Valencia will be gone , Koeman has said it himself , we have no options ... but Barkley should not and can not carry the team . If both Lukaku and Barkley leave then its a bad day for the club because we do not have the quality around them to allow them to shine . Does n't matter who you play in Barkley 's position , play the same way with the same team and set up around him , the result will be the same . Barkley knows this , Lukaku knows this , Koeman knows this , Walsh knows this ... but TW does n't . David Graves 51Posted 23/05/2017 at 16:50:02 So Ross does n't have the whip hand then ? Who looks stupid now ? player or club ? Where was the statement on Monday that Koeman so clearly discussed with the press ? And I 'm sorry but to suggest that Koeman 's discussions with the press and his publicly stated ultimatums are " professional " is indeed making shit up . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Christine and I agree entirely with your analysis . David Graves 53Posted 23/05/2017 at 17:10:04 Very good Christine . " Does n't matter who you play in Barkley 's position , play the same way with the same team and set up around him , the result will be the same . " I think he could help himself by getting into the final third more or the ' third man run ' that the coaches love to call it but how much of his reluctance to do so is coaching instruction ? Patrick Murphy 54Posted 23/05/2017 at 17:23:34 I 've rarely seen Everton sides , save when Peter Beardsley was wearing a blue shirt , that was reliant upon a single player to produce the goods . The difference is that Peter could do that , patently Ross is not as reliable or arguably as talented as Beardsley . In a team so bereft of talent as some on here and elsewhere argue , we ca n't afford passengers and we have too many in the team and the squad , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ finding the back of the net . I think I posed the question about half-a-dozen games into the season , should a manager ask his players to play to his preferred system or should the manager change his preferred system to suit the available players ? That question still remains largely unanswered because the dips in form both from individual players and the team as a whole would indicate that some of the players ca n't produce regularly in Koeman 's set-up , but those same players could n't produce regularly for Roberto either . I do n't really care whether individual players have their noses put out of joint due to the managers decisions but I do care that , when an Everton player enters the field of play , he is fully committed to the cause and gives 100% every time , unfortunately that can not be said of too many of our current squad in the last few seasons , under two different managers . If Ross does decide to remain at Goodison by extending his contract then I hope he shows a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ following his signing of a new deal . Every player new or old should feel that their place is under threat every game , unless they produce the goods , unfortunately that has n't always been the case in the last few years and it looks as if some of our ' star ' players believe they should be in the starting line-up regardless of their performance levels . Players and managers come and go , but the culture of the club can be ruined all too easily , by either or both , somewhere along the line some of our better players have forgotten that hard work should be a given and that the fans will accept uneven performances on occasion if the desire and drive are there but the talent or form goes missing . Everton has never been a good fit for prima donnas , homegrown or bought in , whether Ross or other first team players or even the manager , deserve that label , I 'm not too sure , but I do wish that they would all just get on with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that we can all be well and truly proud of , with or without our ' star ' players . Michael Kenrick 55Posted 23/05/2017 at 17:27:28 David , what I was trying to say is any talk of " whip hands " is off the mark . And neither side " looks stupid " ; both parties are at an impasse ? have been for months . Yes , we await the promised statement ( no-one said when it would be coming , though ... ) One party has offered a contract it has claimed publicly to be a " good contract " ; the other party has said nothing about it but significantly has refused ( so far ) to sign it . There are consequences on both sides for both parties , whether Barkley signs it or whether Barkley does not . And Koeman has been the consummate professional throughout . He is the Everton manager , he has the responsibility for building the team , for making it work , for getting results . ( Not great so far ... but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ project ' ? Arrrgh ! ) He has the professional task of fronting the club to the press and he does that job very professionally , responding as required to questions from the press . Read his blog post at ESPN . The work of a true professional ! David Graves 56Posted 23/05/2017 at 17:42:33 Michael I was n't contributing to the debate regards Koeman 's progress this year or even whether Barkley should stay or go . I just do n't believe that the manager has played this particular scenario very well . You believe that he has managed his dealings with the media professionally ? I do n't and his statement that there would be an " announcement " on Monday was at best ill-advised . He does n't always have to respond to the questions from the press does he ? Don Alexander 57Posted 23/05/2017 at 18:00:00 He 's been with us under three different managers and not improved . He 's had three England managers and now does n't get selected ( and I suggest England have trained him with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ why 's he been given the boot ? ) . He 's played 150 games in five seasons but as every season passes he seems to be not quite as good with the ball as he was the season before , and , sadly , he was n't consistently very good in the first place ( but , as a mere kid , I allowed him that , expecting him to practice to improve ) . Yes , he 's shown some momentary sublime skill but only scored two whole goals of particular individual quality ( versus a crap Newcastle and against Man City two or three years ago ) . Factor in that his body language is generally anonymous , he seems to be all but voiceless when playing , that he 's virtually non-existent in trying to win the ball back and , really , why does anyone , including him , think he 'd be viable as the fulcrum of a Champions League attack anywhere in the country ? Lev Vellene 58Posted 23/05/2017 at 18:04:29 Erm , was n't he supposed to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be a statement after that ( no time specified for that statement ) ? I always expected that to be Tuesday , or at least within a few days after Monday . But then , I just read the words without filtering them through my personal assumptions-filter ... Then , as the Echo reported , there were seemingly still some talks going on ; so I shrugged and am still waiting , even if it 's impatiently ! I can only assume that there is no clear Yes or No from either side , but that the parties are still within reach of each others ' wants and needs . If Barkley definitely did n't want to sign a new contract , I can see no reason we would n't know by now ! Of course , the more likely scenario could be that he ( and/or is agent ) was hoping to be able to delay signing to see if there were big money interest during the summer , and then make a show of signing if none turned up ... John Pierce 60Posted 23/05/2017 at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ assessment of why , in part , Ross struggles ... but that 's were it ends . Koeman 's formations a defensive and pragmatic , are no friend of Ross Barkley . I think Ross has an Everton future but has much to do himself to change that . Ross has proven he ca n't hack the work rate in the middle of the park and as soon as January came he was shunted to a wide right berth , displaced by Schneiderlin and Davies . He was given a chance to play with little defensive responsibility and concentrate on the attacking part . He had a right back who is no statute helping him and a centre-forward despite valid criticism who was scoring at home . He has in 4 years only assisted Lukaku 4 times ! ( Cheetham ; Sky ) Whilst I could happily burden Rom with the lions share of blame , Ross has to do better to provide for our main source of goals . So he has had 6 months to show he can be the man . His @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Not seen it , me . Sorry , just not evident . However if he is as good as you and other of his supporters think , surely he would have found a way around the limitations of the system , worked out that our centre-forward prefers the ball quick and in front of him ? Nope , nadda . Work to do , not insurmountable but pivotal for him as a player , or I fear he might just fade from view as Rodwell did . Horrible comparison but relevant maybe Shaun Wright-Phillips or other top 6 bench warmers might be better example . Oliver Molloy 61Posted 23/05/2017 at 18:19:30 Martin Mason , I keep asking people who are accusing Koeman of bullying Barkley to explain to me how this bullying has taken place . I have seen or heard no bullying or am I missing something ? Manager says he wants to work with and keep Everton 's good players.Manager says Barkley is a good player.Manager says there is a contract ready to sign for Barkley.Manager says contract is normal for this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at Everton.Manager says if Barkley does n't sign the contract that he will be sold . Barkley says nothing ( and yes , he is entitled to do this ) Now , please explain how the manager is bullying . He is simply stating the obvious is n't he ? Like , if Barkley was allowed to run down his contract , that would be great business.Has n't this club messed up enough already without letting a saleable asset run down their contract.Koeman is the manager ( like it or lump it ) and Barkley is just another footballer -- yes just another footballer . I 'm happy we have a straight talking manager at least . In my opinion , Barkley reckons he is worth a load more money than what 's on the table which is rumoured to be ? 100 grand or thereabouts ( with bonuses included ) . Do n't forget , the manager is usually the communicator of the club in most cases -- Kenwright and Moshiri are the two that should be saying what 's going on . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 23/05/2017 at 18:24:45 I fear he 'll go and , like Christine Foster , I fear he 's the victim of the way Everton play and their lack of movement . Koeman has n't exactly man-managed him very well . The firm hand is fine , but it ca n't be the only approach in this day and age . Koeman 's pointed out every mistake , but rarely given him praise . I do n't see Barkley as a trouble-maker , he 's too quiet for that role , Everton never give him the post-match interview job . Perhaps Koeman wants him to be more assertive , but some players are n't . Alex Young was a quiet retiring fellow and there have been few greater players than him . Before anyone jumps him I 'm not comparing them as players , just as quiet , but talented footballers . Catterick tried very hard to replace Young with Wignall , and , of course , Royle 's debut was far too premature . Managers love personalities . if we let him go , it 'll @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rid of players before their time : Collins , Vernon and Ball . If Barkley had someone like Kane or Costa ahead of him we might see his potential being fulfilled . David Barks 63Posted 23/05/2017 at 18:25:33 Man , I wish someone would bully me by asking repeatedly that I sign a contract for millions of dollars to stay at my current employer . What a world , oh the humanity . Martin Mason 64Posted 23/05/2017 at 18:35:45 Real Madrid have just paid ? 38M on a 16-year-old Brazilian , a young Belgian has turned down Man City for Monaco at a similar price . We 've had a ? 3M bid for a young QPR midfielder turned down . Swansea have laughed at our ? 25M bid for Sigurdsson . It really is a big call now for Everton to be successful in the transfer market to the degree needed to take a step past Man Utd to 6th . United themselves with comparatively unlimited resources are badly positioned to be able to gain a place themselves . Having some money @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 65Posted 23/05/2017 at 20:01:55 It 's reported ( who knows if it 's true ) that Sigurdsson wants ? 6+ million a year to come to us . It 's reported that Ross has been offered ? 5 million a year to stay . Sigurdsson is much older and his value will fall . If I were Ross , I 'd get my agent to tell the club that , since the only players to have created more chances this season are Erksen , De Bruyne , Ozil and Hazard , and since my value of ? 50 million will rise in the coming years , I 'd stay for ? 7+ million a year . But then he might have decided already that the manager wants him out so he wo n't sign for any money . Who knows what 's really happening in the background , but it beggars belief that Everton have handled this the way they have . Unbelievably stupid . Rick Tarleton 66Posted 23/05/2017 at 21:46:52 That sounds a sensible and fair summing up of the situation , Clive ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a local talented player of this ferocity , since Derek Temple was trying to make his way in the late fifties .

Stan Schofield 67Posted 23/05/2017 at 23:13:29 If many of the recent Barkley posts on TW are anything to go by , the way Everton have dealt publicly with his contractual situation has created a lot of ill-feeling towards him . This could not have happened if the matters had been handled purely in-house as they should have been . Astonishingly unprofessional by Koeman and Everton .

DEBATE : ? ? Should we be clamouring to see Fred Goodwin stand in the dock and quizzed over the collapse of RBS ? Fred Goodwin , the disgraced former chief executive of RBS , was due to take to the witness stand on 8-9 June , as a defendant in a civil case surrounding the bank 's ? 12bn rights issue of 2008 . Now , the case has been adjourned as RBS seeks an out of court settlement -- but there remains a chance this fails , and that Goodwin is finally called to the dock . He has spent the past seven years hiding from a public still furious that his dreadful calls -- notably the 2007 purchase of ABN Amro -- helped bring our economy to its knees . He left RBS in 2009 and was stripped of his knighthood , but has never been properly taken to task . In the meantime he enjoys a ? 342,500 pension courtesy of RBS , a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Thus taxpayers are funding his lifestyle . We should be grateful to the claimants , including thousands of regular men and women , who have pulled him out of hiding . They deserve to see Goodwin stand and answer questions , and so do we . Shakespeare says that when the mob in Caesar 's Rome found that they 'd caught Cinna the poet not Cinna the conspirator , rather than relenting they cried " Tear him for his bad verses ! " Such is Goodwin 's plight : it does n't matter if the civil court process now underway is actually the right process to determine fault ; the mob wants public shaming and the infliction of pain . Never mind whether the fault is actually criminal ; treat him as one . This mentality harms the banking profession , which we keenly need to recover ; moreover , it undermines the rule of law by blurring what should be a bright line between unlawful and ( even if deeply unattractive ) lawful actions . Societies which favour show trials in which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sins against the state before the tumbrils roll are not pleasant places . We should be firm in our desire to be just -- but it diminishes us all when we are vengeful . City A.M. 's opinion pages are a place for thought-provoking views and debate .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'make money out of cutting corners' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Food hygiene inspectors found the kitchens at two well-known Derbyshire pubs to be " very dirty and disorganised " when they visited them after diners complained about falling ill .

THE future of a post office seen as " the heart " of the community it serves remains uncertain with the postmistress set to step down .

The Briton was struggling with a lack of grip , had to abort two laps after almost crashing , and then came across another crashed car on his final lap . The Mercedes driver had been struggling since second practice on Thursday afternoon and , despite set-up changes for Saturday morning , he was still struggling going into qualifying . He was 10th in the first session , 0.3secs off Bottas , but the second session began unravelling from the start . Who has won what : the title battle so far this season On his first lap , a flick of oversteer at the fast Massenet corner at the top of the hills looked set to trigger a heavy crash , but Hamilton just kept the car out of the barriers , taking his hand off the wheel and shaking it afterwards as a reaction to how close he had come to an accident . He complained to engineer Peter Bonnington : " I 've got no grip , Bono . I 've got to come in . Something is just not right with the car @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were no better . This time it was Casino that nearly caught him out , the car flicking into oversteer over the crest at the famous corner , Hamilton again just rescuing it from the barriers .

Ferrari have n't won at Monaco since 2001 , when Michael Schumacher triumphed Strategy is expected to be flexible , with the ultra-soft tyre durable enough to last the race but the teams forced by the regulations to make at least one pit stop to switch to the super-soft .

The sentence 'What can I get out of cycling?' does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to be inquiring about benefits or results from cycling, which is not the focus of the transitive out of -ing construction.

' DO you have to be slim and sporty to be a cyclist ? " A question asked of me by Maisie , age nine . It was asked over email ( by her teacher who had sent through questions from the whole class ) so luckily I had time to ponder it . Being human ( read : naturally self-centred ) I first considered whether I myself am slim and sporty . You 'd think making a living as a professional sportsperson would give me a quick tick in the " sporty " box but what actually confirmed it , in my own mind at least , was that as a child I saw myself as Sporty Spice . I reckon a lot of women my age ( there I go with my flawless data collection and statistical analysis again ) will have chosen which Spice Girl they thought they were , because labelling each band member with a stereotype that kids can attach themselves to , and in turn define themselves by , was an amazingly successful gimmick . I 'm not dissing it ; I loved playing Spice Girls because here was a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for how to play them ( Ginger Spice being the only tricky one ; how do you act ginger ? ) . But do you have to be sporty to be a cyclist ? Well I asked the GB cycling women 's endurance WhatsApp group and the results are in , Maisie . Assuming you hold the same definition that I did age nine , no , you do n't have to be sporty . The current squad have a history of all five different Spice Girls -- and also have a history of brilliant success in cycling . Does this mean we can rule out any kind of pos-itive relationship between Sporty Spice childhood and professional sportsperson adulthood ? I do n't actually know , I was too busy telling people what I want , what I really really want , to pay attention at school . So do you have to be slim ? Being human ( read : naturally self-centred ) I searched my own name in Google images to answer this one . Terrible idea . Worse idea than opening a tube @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Worse idea than thinking you can even out cycling tan lines by sun bathing in arm and leg warmers . Worse than thinking you 'll just take a wee break from writing your column with your eyes closed on top of the bed but not actually fall asleep . I managed to scroll to the bottom of Google images . I did n't know that was even a thing , I just assumed the page went on indefinitely . But no , if you 're really desperate to find a flattering picture of yourself Google will keep leading you on to the very bottom , and never deliver . I would n't recommend trying it at home . In fact , I specifically request you do n't try it with my name . The whole thing got me upset that such a subjective word could be associated with potential performance . I think I 'd be pissed off if a journalist had asked me , but coming from a nine-year-old , I just felt a bit sad that " slim " had made the cut over the plethora @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fast , powerful , smart , dedicated ... And then , the universe falling into that familiar habit of making me think there 's a greater force at play by co-ordinating my existence into handy themes . My PE teacher friend asked me to come into her school and speak about body positivity . It 's a senior school so the discussion will be slightly more nuanced but I basically have my chance to change the conversation from one of " Do you have to look like X and act like Y to be a cyclist ? " to " What can I get out of cycling ? " . For a few girls , anyway . I gather we 'll also be bitching about false representations of celebrities in the media which is always fun . Speaking to people about sport or inspiring them through sport is part of my job as a UK Lottery-funded athlete . The getting on a bike and racing at the Olympics part of it seems a lot easier at times than the standing in front of a room of confident 14-year-olds @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nervous for both . My next getting on a bike and racing shift for GB is n't for another couple of months , when I 'll return to track racing because until then I 've got a fairly packed schedule on the road . Racing for my road team ( Team WNT Pro Cycling ) , I have our biggest race of the calendar coming up in just over a week : the OVO Energy Women 's Tour . It starts on June 7 and is a part of the UCI Women 's World-Tour which means it 's one of the 20 most prestigious races in the world . Highlights are on TV after every stage on ITV4 and Eurosport ( I think you can also get them on demand ) . We 'll be the underdogs with some more subtle goals than winning the general classification , but tune in to enjoy the whole race anyway , even if that does involve me getting my head kicked in at times .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks a clear NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate structure. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the construction. The phrase 'making money out of breeding' suggests a means of earning rather than causing or preventing an action, which is not consistent with the transitive out of -ing construction.

Jack Nowell 's chances of making the British and Irish Lions Test team were boosted by scoring in the Premiership final Getty It was the 14th minute of extra-time , the 94th gruelling minute of the Premiership final , when Jack Nowell collected the ball from the base of a ruck and looked up . Around him , there were Wasps defenders out on their feet , Exeter teammates running on empty , yet the wing summoned on his incredible energy levels and burst down the blindside with an insurgence that drove into the opposition 22 and paved the way towards the penalty that would win Exeter Chiefs their first Premiership final . The 24-year-old British and Irish Lions wing , who on Sunday joined up with the rest of the squad in London ahead of Monday 's flight out to New Zealand , was relentless in his work rate and clinical with his finishing when it mattered most , with the Englishman darting over in the corner to open the scoring for the Chiefs in a pulsating final at Twickenham . " I just go and trust in our set-piece , trust in our @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over Wasps . " We 'd been working on a move in the week and sometimes they pay off and sometimes they do n't and thankfully it did today . With Luke Cowan Dickie coming out the back and with Stu Townsend going around the front , we worked on that all week and for the whole group , not for myself , I 'm happy to finish it off . " It was the third consecutive play-off match that Nowell has crossed the whitewash , having scored against Saracens in the semi-final and also in last season 's final defeat to the same side , and further cements his reputation as a big game player that can be depended on when it matters most . That weighs a lot in his favour then ahead of the Lions tour , with Warren Gatland willing to give every one of his 41-man squad the next four weeks to prove they should be in his side for the first Test against the All Blacks on 24 June . But , he stressed , that quest to secure a place in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ night , and in true Exeter fashion , Nowell joined his teammates in heading back down the M3 to Exeter to celebrate their success , before returning to London first thing in the morning . Grew into the game as it wore on and treated the 80,000 fans to the flowing running rugby that he has displayed this year . Could n't find the final product , but still a good performance . Getty Images Starved of ball , but that should have forced him in-field to come and find work . It was his break and chip that ended up with Daly going over though , proving again he has the X-factor when needed . Getty Images Looked to try create something out of nothing in the first half but he was well marshalled by the Exeter defence . Overcooked a kick that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ space as the game began to break down and was on hand to score the try that put Wasps ahead when supporting Wade . Getty Images On hand to finish Wasps ' first try on the stroke of half-time , but his most telling contribution came in chasing back to hold off Nowell when the ball was loose in the Wasps half with no one at home . Made two good breaks in the second half and , having scored all but five of Wasps ' points , it was the Jimmy Gopperth show . Getty Images Unlucky not to score when Daly 's chip would n't sit for him , and had another close-range run halted in the second half that went awry when Woodburn caught him . Getty Images Poor kicking from hand in the first half , but he came to life when he started taking the ball to the line to commit the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's try . Quiet in the second half as Exeter dominated possession , but did come up with an excellent kick to touch in extra-time . Getty Images Had two impressive runs from the base , the first down the blindside that eventually came unstuck and the second to support Taylor 's break that produced Gopperth 's try with a brilliant pass back inside to the Kiwi . Replaced by Joe Simpson just short of the hour . Getty Images The solid corner in the Wasps scrum that ensured Wasps were able to compete in the front-row battle . Departed after 58 minutes , only to come back on when Marty Moore was injured . Getty Images Really prominent with his carrying and while he had his struggles in the scrum , he still put in a very assured performance . Reliable in the tackling department too . Getty Images Getty Images Broke the line with the first attack of the game . Very impressive defence as he secured two turnovers in the first half , and despite coming out on the wrong side of things today , he has had a mighty fine season . Getty Images Struggled in the lineout and was rather anonymous when it came to carrying in the loose . Replaced by Kearnan Myall short of the hour mark . Getty Images Looked out on his feet as full-time approached , but he was n't going to leave the field and seemed to find a second wind to put in some hugely important hits In extra-time . Getty Images Had to get through an enormous amount of tackling but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was replaced just after the hour mark by Guy Thompson . Getty Images A brilliant performance from the No 8 whose only bad point was having to take eight minutes out for a Head Injury Assessment that came from three tacklers hitting him on the line . A force with the ball in hand that was displayed when he barged off four men from a turnover that came in his own tackle , and was the unluckiest man out there as he deserved to have a winners ' medal around his neck . Getty Images Finished brilliantly to score Exeter 's second and give them breathing space that they would soon lose . Tackled by Hughes shortly after the second half began and hurt his knee , with his absence proving costly as Wasps scored while he was being treated . Getty Images Picked up a knock to his ankle early on , but hit @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the match , running a smart supporting line to beat Le Roux and Robson to score . Important tackle stopped Robson going over , and even in extra-time , he was still a bubbling ball of energy that tried to create something out of nothing . Getty Images Great lines , especially in the first half , made some real incisions into the Wasps defence , and he also managed to do his fair share of tackling to stymie Daly and Co . Getty Images Showed some mazy running lines that has Wasps repeatedly guessing where he was going , but he took a knock in the second half and had to leave the field just before regular time expired . Getty Images Strong running in the first half saw him create space for his teammates , and he was also effective in defence as he stopped Bassett from close range . Could n't do much to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Kicking to touch was a little disappointing and he displayed that through his reactions . Did well to recover from a big hit from Hughes , and held his nerve to score the match-winning penalty . Getty Images Started off well with pace to his game , but as the match wore on the speed of the ball he was providing slowed and this hurt Exeter . Spent more time talking to JP Doyle than focusing on his game . Getty Images Will have been saddened to see Phil Swainston leave early on as he had the Wasps tighthead on toast in the opening half an hour . Replaced as part of a completed front-row change in the 50th minute , having put in a solid shift . Getty Images Smart running to come around the corner off his lineout throw set-up Nowell 's score , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from the England international . Getty Images Made a strong run early on to get Exeter rolling in the right direction . His impact reduced as the game wore on though and Mullan gave him a good battle on the scrum . Getty Images Got through plenty of carrying as Exeter had the baulk of the possession , and he performed well in the lineout to keep Cowan-Dickie 's throw safe . Getty Images Disrupted the Wasps lineout twice in the first 40 minutes , but it was his powerful running that really stood out in the second half and he gave his side a strong platform as he repeatedly crossed the gain line . Will be a real miss next season as he now heads to Japan . Getty Images Struggled with the intensity at the breakdown which meant he could not challenge the Wasps @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as Rob Baxter turned to Mitch Lees for something different at the ruck . Getty Images Not as prevalent in defence as the semi-final but that 's because Exeter had much more of the ball . Still put in huge shift , and was one of those who stood out in extra-time as Exeter threw everything at Wasps . Getty Images Powerful run saw his charge through Robson and get Exeter on the front foot which eventually led to Dollman 's score . AFP/Getty Images " I 'm going to enjoy it tonight with the boys because at the end of the day it means so much to all of us , " Nowell said . " I 'm going to go back with the boys , I 've got a taxi booked for seven o'clock in the morning , but I 'm going to make sure I enjoy this . Times like this do n't come around too often . He added : " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ focus is on going away on tour and trying to get one of those test shirts . " As soon as I 'm on that taxi ride I will be thinking about what 's ahead of me , that I 'm going to get the chance maybe to play for the Lions . That 's any rugby player 's dream and I ca n't think too much about what happened today . I 'll focus on that tonight but then tomorrow it 's a complete switch , a completely different mentality with a different team and I want to make the most of it and go for one of those shirts . " Nowell confirmed he would celebrate with his Exeter teammates before joining the Lions squad ( Getty ) The challenge ahead of Nowell is his biggest yet . He must fend off competition from England teammates Anthony Watson and Elliot Daly , Scotland 's Tommy Seymour and Wales duo George North and Liam Williams to secure one of the two test spots on the wing . Yet his departing Exeter teammate , Geoff Parling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ winners ' medal following his successes with Leicester Tigers in 2010 and 2013 , believes that Nowell 's X-factor gives him a genuine chance of tying down a place in the first XV because his ability to create something out of nothing can lift the rest of the side during a match . " He is the type of player , certainly from my point of view , that when he gets the ball , you expect him to do something whether that is beating one man or a few , " said Parling . " As a forward that 's pretty good . He gets you on the front foot . " Hopefully he gets a chance in that Test team because he certainly wants that ball . " |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of nothing' is an idiomatic expression and does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate.

Jack Nowell 's chances of making the British and Irish Lions Test team were boosted by scoring in the Premiership final Getty It was the 14th minute of extra-time , the 94th gruelling minute of the Premiership final , when Jack Nowell collected the ball from the base of a ruck and looked up . Around him , there were Wasps defenders out on their feet , Exeter teammates running on empty , yet the wing summoned on his incredible energy levels and burst down the blindside with an insurgence that drove into the opposition 22 and paved the way towards the penalty that would win Exeter Chiefs their first Premiership final . The 24-year-old British and Irish Lions wing , who on Sunday joined up with the rest of the squad in London ahead of Monday 's flight out to New Zealand , was relentless in his work rate and clinical with his finishing when it mattered most , with the Englishman darting over in the corner to open the scoring for the Chiefs in a pulsating final at Twickenham .

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('Mr Tydings' + 'talked' + 'his family' + 'out of taking legal action'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the subject causes the object to not perform the action in the VP2[-ing] predicate. The verb 'talked' is in the category of means by enticing, flattering, or verbal persuasion. The NP object 'his family' is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'taking legal action'. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Image caption The Trump Organization made only one change : replacing the word " Integrity " with the word " Trump " It may not be the most dramatic scandal facing Donald Trump this week , but the US president has been accused of branding his US commercial properties with a stolen coat of arms . Mr Trump 's heraldic crest is a near-identical copy of one registered in 1939 by Joseph Edward Davies , the New York Times reported . The copy , printed on everything from golf carts to socks , made a single small change : where the original said " Integritas " , now it says " Trump " . Davies was an American diplomat and husband to Marjorie Merriweather Post , who built the Mar-a-Lago resort that now belongs to the president , and where presumably he first saw the coat of arms . The similarity was spotted by Davies ' grandson , former US senator Joseph Tydings , on a visit to the resort . He told the Times he had not given permission to the Trump Organization to use the crest . It drew the attention of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a new golf course in Aberdeen with the adulterated crest . They noticed that he had n't registered it with the Court of the Lord Lyon , which approves all applications for arms and has authority to litigate against anyone using a design improperly . An application to trademark the crest with the College of Arms , the authority for England , Wales and Northern Ireland , was rejected after the college noted that the design had been lifted from an existing crest . The motto , changed by the Trump organisation , does not technically form part of the design , making the two identical in the eyes of the authorities . " We would never allow this as a new coat of arms , " said John Petrie , Rouge Croix Pursuivant of Arms at the college . " There needs to be at least two lineal differences from something that 's been granted in the past . " The fact that Mr Trump had changed the colours of the crest to black and gold was not considered sufficient , Mr Petrie said . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ borrowed crest at his US resorts Coats of arms date to the 12th Century , where they were first worn on battle shields . The crests were adopted by members of the royal family and spread among the wider nobility , granted by the monarch to a male member of the family and passed down the male line . Nowadays , if you consider yourself to be part of an eminent family or institution , you can make your case to the College of Arms . Your status , and any design ideas you submit , will be reviewed and if approved , you will be granted a letters patent by the most senior herald , the Kings of Arms . Design remains a matter of taste , however . Modern day symbols of wealth " would not be appropriate " , said Mr Petrie . " A design for a coat of arms needs to be suitable , tasteful , and timeless , " he said . " Modern day apparel and equipment may not look very good in 50 or 100 years . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Mr Petrie said . " We can include a little more than would have been allowed in the past , including natural flowers , some national symbols or different animals that might not have been known before . " Image copyrightReutersImage caption An adapted Trump crest on display at his Turnberry gold resort in Scotland It is illegal in the UK to assume another family 's coat of arms , but someone doing so in England , Wales or Northern Ireland is unlikely to feel the long arm of the law . London 's High Court of Chivalry - the special court dedicated to the task - last sat in 1954 . But in Scotland , where Mr Trump used the borrowed design on promotional materials for his golf course , he could still have faced legal action . Mr Tydings told the Times he had talked his family out of taking legal action . " I just told the other members of my family that you ca n't win on this , " he said . " You 'll borrow for two generations to sue @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ challenge by the Court of the Lord Lyon , the Trump Organization altered the design it had taken from Mr Davies and was granted its own Scottish patent . Here 's how a Trump spokeswoman described the new crest : " Three chevronels are used to denote the sky , sand dunes and sea - the essential components of the golf resort site - and the double-sided eagle represents the dual nature and nationality of Trump 's heritage . " She added : " The eagle clutches golf balls , making reference to the great game of golf , and the motto ' Numquam Concedere ' is Latin for ' Never Give Up ' - Trump 's philosophy . " But in the US , where the heraldic laws are less stringent , Mr Trump simply trademarked the Davies family crest and plastered it across golf resorts , hotels and assorted merchandise . In Britain it would not be the done thing , said Mr Petrie . " It 's certainly not proper to use the arms of another family , " he said . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for your own . " |

Recruitment drive : Scotland Yard is to recruit detectives from the public Kirsty O'Connor/PA Londoners are to get the chance to become a real life Luther or Jane Tennison as Scotland Yard launches a radical scheme to recruit detectives from the general public . The Met is to become the first force in the country to hire people as trainee detectives without requiring them to undergo two years in uniform on the beat . Instead , recruits will carry out two years detective training , first in the classroom and then in borough CID units alongside trained officers . The force launched the ' Detective Pathway ' recruitment drive today and said it hoped to bring in 160 trainee investigators by next year . The detectives will have a starting salary of ? 29,607 . Detective Chief Superintendent Stephen Clayman said : " London continues to change and so do its criminals . Increasing complex crimes such as cyber-criminality and the pressing need to protect vulnerable people mean our investigators need to develop new expertise . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ two years on the beat ( Andy Rain/EPA ) " To meet these challenges and to face future threats , the Met needs to equip its officers with the right skills and capabilities . We need to ensure we are even more innovative in the way we recruit . " The new trainee detective constables will work in CID to investigate crimes ranging from burglary and robbery to more serious offences such as assault and rape . The Met says it hopes to attract a new group of applicants to policing , including some who are looking for a career change and others who may be put off by the uniform . The move also comes as the Met is short of 700 detectives in borough policing with low detection rates in crimes such as burglary and robbery . Rank and file police leaders welcomed the move , saying the new officers would still need all the " omni-competent " skills of a police constable . Met Police Federation chairman Ken Marsh said : " The Met is recognising that there are a lot @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ want to roll out around on the ground with the baddies . " They will still do two years probation , they will have to have the skills of a police constable such as safety training , so if they have other skills such as cyber expertise , let 's use them . " He added : " If you look at what happened in Manchester the number of skilled detectives needed to investigate that is phenomenal . " However , there are concerns the move is controversial with one recent report to chief constables highlighting a concern about a lack of respect among established CID officers for those hired by direct entry . The new detective recruits will need degrees and will have to prove that they have lived in London for three of the last six years . DCS Clayman , who is charge of the recruitment programme , said the detectives would still be police officers who would be expected to make arrests and get involved if they encountered a fight on their way home . He said : " This @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ numbers , the traditional route to becoming a detective will still be the norm . " " This is about bringing people into policing who would not have considered it as a career before . " He said market tests had shown a huge interest in the scheme from people who would not have considered joining the police because of the uniform . DCS Clayman , a former homicide and gangs detective , said : " A lot of people 's perceptions of being a detective is what they see on TV so we have to temper that and say it is not Midsomer Murders , it 's not the Sweeney . " We do n't sit in the pub thinking about the next clue , modern detective work is very different . " I think policing has changed hugely , detective work of the 60s and 70s is a bygone age , the work of modern detectives is hard and challenging but it is hugely rewarding . " We are looking for people who will do a great job for London 's communities @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dealing with people who were born in the 80s and 90s who have different expectations for their careers , policing not necessarily a 30 year career for some , some may dip in and out of policing . " The trainee detectives will get support from ex detectives who are being recruited as mentors and coaching staff . The Met say it is looking for people in degree professions looking to change careers while they are also working with London universities . DCS Clayman said social workers were one example of a typical profession because they had experience of dealing with vulnerable people and were good at communicating . He said : " We want people who are self motivated , who have tenacity , who can manage a reasonable work load , understand risk who can work alone but can also work with a team , who can go to court and deal with barristers and lawyers .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'pull out of' as a phrasal verb followed by a gerund 'pursuing', but there is no NP object between 'pull out of' and 'pursuing a deal'. Additionally, it does not clearly convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

That proved to be the case after Fulham were knocked out of the play-off race , interest suddenly coming from Premier League big guns Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur -- two teams in a race for Sessegnon 's signature .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pull out of pursuing a deal' involves an intransitive verb 'pull out' with no NP object, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'friends and family' is the NP subject, 'talked' is V1, 'her' is the NP object, and 'using "Disney" as a first name' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also induces a prevention interpretation, as the friends and family prevented her from using 'Disney' as a first name. The verb 'talked' fits into the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot, specifically under 'By means of enticing, flattering, or verbal persuasion'. The NP object 'her' functions as a causee, and the sentence can be paraphrased to show prevention, aligning with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

LOCAL favourite Ash Robson is The Press Player of the Month for May - lifting himself into the frame for The Press Player of the Year accolade come the end of term . On-loan centre Nick Rawsthorne was a strong candidate for the May gong after his six tries and 10 goals in the three games , but Robson just topped our poll - thanks to his man-of-the-match display in the important win at Newcastle last time out . Full-back Robson was a game-changer that night , creating a try out of nothing , scoring another and constantly troubling the hosts with his kick returns . It followed good shows in the big wins over Coventry and Gloucestershire All Golds - the day when the unlucky Rawsthorne also missed out on man-of-the-match plaudits despite bagging four tries . Head coach James Ford said of Robson : " I thought he was really good against Newcastle . He turned the momentum back in our favour with a line break , he got a try and he had other really good involvements throughout . " He also made a really positive contribution against Coventry and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ showed a lot of maturity not to let that affect the rest of his performance and he finished the game really well - I was really pleased to see that mental strength in him .

That adds to the three points he gained as our man of the match against Newcastle , with the six lifting him to joint-top in the standings with Tim Spears , the club 's other big winter recruit , on 11 . Also picking up Player of the Year points from the Newcastle game are Rawsthorne , who gains two as our second-best performer on the night , and Chris Siddons , who gains one . Dual-reg stand-off Liam Harris was our man of the match in the previous game against Coventry - for the second consecutive match - and so adds three points to his Player @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ second-best performer that day , against his former club , so gets two points and 2016 Player of the Year Ed Smith gets one point , keeping him in touch with this season 's leaders .

Labour were predicted to make significant gains and the Conservatives were on course to lose their majority , exit polls showed on Thursday night . It would represent a remarkable turnaround in Labour and Jeremy Corbyn 's fortunes and a spectacular decline in the popularity of Theresa May 's Conservatives since the Prime Minister 's decision to call the snap election . David Millward writes : For weeks I had a sense that the Theresa May 's election campaign carried echoes of Hillary Clinton 's disastrous tilt at the White House . Both were supposed to be serene processions against opponents who were unelectable . It looks as if it is not going to turn out that way . Jeremy Corbyn was , according to conventional wisdom as unelectable as Donald Trump . Little did we know . Of course the same was said about Bernie Sanders as he was being stitched up by senior apparatchiks in the Democratic Committee .

Whether it was brunching with grime stars in hipster cafes or standing alongside comedians at rallies , Jeremy Corbyn became the candidate of choice for young people during the election campaign , Camilla Turner and India Sturgis report . Historically the turnout for youngsters is far lower than older generations , but this year it appears that their vote was significant . 246,487 young people registered to vote on Monday , the cut-off for being eligible for next month 's general election . This figure eclipses the equivalent of 137,400 on the last day for registrations in 2015 and meant that 1.05 million 18-24 year olds have registered since Theresa May called for an election on April 18 . In May 2015 just 43 per cent of those aged 18-24 cast votes . Nationally , the figure was 66 per cent and up to 78 per cent for those aged 65 and above . Tim Stanleywrites : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an election to end elections : give me a big majority , she said , and I 'll get on with the job . The alternative was a " coalition of chaos " . Six weeks later and as I crack open the hotel miniatures it 's looking like " chaos " is ahead . People did not buy the Tory narrative . They were unimpressed by the Prime Minister . They decided the election was n't about Brexit . It was about ... rebellion . Election night has witnessed a series of rebellions . The Lib Dems lost Nick Clegg to a Labour swing . The SNP were battered by the Tories in Scotland . A large number of northern , working-class voters may have voted Tory for the first time -- although not enough of them . The Ukip vote , it turns out , was never just about Brexit either . It was an anti-politics vote and this time the anti-politics vote went for Labour , a Labour Party run by a man , Jeremy Corbyn , in rebellion against the Blairites . Jeremy Corbyn 's victory in Islington North demonstrates his surge in popularity , Martin Evans writes . He was elected for a ninth time with the largest vote for any candidate ever in the constituency , increasing his majority from 21,194 to 33,215 . Alan Cochrane , Scottish political commentator writes : Labour has been joyously joining in the bashing of the SNP with wins in Glasgow , Kirkcaldy , Coatbridge and East Lothian . There is no doubt that Jeremy Corbyn 's spirited campaigning south of the border has bolstered Labour 's performance in Scotland but Kezia Dugdale , the Scottish leader , will deserve a share of the plaudits . She has been under enormous pressure after presiding over the disaster of 2015 when all but one of her Scottish seats was lost to the SNP . Although she has been eclipsed by her Tory equivalent , Ruth Davidson , in this election , Ms Dugdale has stuck to her task magnificently in winning back those disgruntled Labour-ites . Her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't get a good result tonight but it is Ms Sturgeon who has all the hard questions to answer - not Kezia Dugdale . Accepting victory after holding Islington North , Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn said : " Politics has changed . Politics is n't going back into the box where it was before . People have said they have had quite enough of austerity politics . " After 50 results out of 650 , Labour had 28 seats with two gains , while the Conservatives were on 16 with one loss . The Labour share of the vote stood at 45.76% , an increase of 8.18% , with the Tory share at 36.94% , up 6.68% . Ukip looked to be the biggest loser on the night , with a drop in share so far of 11.29% .

We have the first Scottish constituency and it 's a stunning result for Labour in Rutherglen and Hamilton West , overturning a 10,000 majority to win back the seat from the SNP . Labour win by only 265 votes Alan Cochrane , Scottish political commentator writes : Send for Ruth ! After a less-than ringing declaration of loyalty to Theresa May from Dr Liam Fox on the BBC , and again assuming that the exit poll proves to be correct , how long will it be before the Tory men in suits decide that Mrs May is no longer the leader they want . The mutterings about her poor leadership are growing ever louder . Where do the Tories go for a replacement ? Is there anyone in the current Cabinet ? Or will the cry go out to get someone who 's proved that she can run a successful Tory campaign . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the higher reaches of the Conservative Party and if the predictions prove correct she 's masterminded a stunning result in Scotland . What price La Davidson moving south ? There have been reports of people who registered to vote close to the deadline being turned away at polling stations , Henry Bodkin reports . Eighteen-year-old Christina Demetriou told The Telegraph she received her confirmation email at 8.57pm on May 21 - the deadline to register was May 22 . However , when she turned up to vote in her Finchley and Golders Green constituency she was refused . Ms Demetriou , who is a student , said five of her friends had experienced the same problem in the constituency , part of which was formerly Margaret Thatcher 's seat , which is being tipped for a Labour gain .

According to the exit poll , Theresa May is on course to secure 314 MPs , 12 shy of an overall majority , and the resultant mood in here has lifted like a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a flat cap is fist-pumping the air and planning a celebratory march to No.10 . He tells me that he did n't like Jeremy Corbyn before the election but thinks that he came across so well during it he voted for him . Throughout Shoreditch this evening , in this East London corner of creativity overflowing with students and millennials , it is a familiar response . John McDonnell , the shadow chancellor , said : " I 'm extremely skeptical of polls . let 's see how it rolls out . let 's take this with a huge pinch of salt and see how it goes . " I 'm really proud of the campaign we ran the issue for us is how to we get the best deal in the negotiations for the country . " " The Prime Minister said seven times there would n't be a snap election , then she called it . There was a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to worry about . I think she does n't hold the trust of the country - that 's proven it . " Labour ran an extreme straightforward , positive campaign . It was based around Jeremy Corbyn 's own character , ' straight-talking , honest politics ' . That 's what people wanted . " This campaign has changed the nature of political discourse in this country . Jeremy Corbyn has run a fantastic campaign . " Pat MacDonald , Labour candidate for Mrs May 's constituency of Maidenhead , said that the exit poll was " testament " to the " extraordinary campaign run by Jeremy Corbyn " , adding that Labour would be " paying thanks " to Theresa May for making " this possible " . " I am absolutely delighted , given where we were four weeks ago . For the first time in 20 years I 'm fully behind the manifesto we 've put forward . " Our leader has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to thank Theresa May for the way she 's run this campaign . " I was n't a Corbyn fan from the beginning . But at the second election I was absolutely behind him . I just think that if a few more of our member of Parliament had shown a bit more loyalty over the last few months , imagine what the result would look like then ? " I think we 've benefitted from an unprecedented youth turnout , but also Conservative pensioners - a huge chunk of their vote . " Jeremy Corbyn must have been doing a jig around Labour Party HQ when their manifesto came out , I found it frankly astonishing . " There was n't anybody who I knew involved in politics who did n't think that this was the biggest own goal ever scored . Especially the winter fuel allowance and Scotland , trying to win votes there whilst saying to people in England ' we do n't give a damn about you . ' " She has n't performed well on TV or with members of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's ran away from debates . " I did a hustings with her in Maidenhead and the only people who knew about it was the local paper the Maidenhead Advertiser . " That does n't give people a chance to engage with her and ask her questions . It was the Conservatives idea to have leadership debates , and now there always running away from them . " Former Liberal Democrat leader Menzies Campbell said the poll results showed Mrs May 's Brexit strategy had failed and insisted his party would be reluctant to make deals with other parties . He told BBC News : " Tim Farron made it very clear , he said no pact , no deal , no coalition . " We 've had our fingers burned by coalition , I do n't need to tell you that , so I find it very difficult to see how Tim Farron would go back on what he has already said and indeed to persuade the membership of the Lib Dems that a coalition was a good idea from our point of view . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ triggered instant speculation over the shape of any coalition if no party has an overall majority in the Commons . Even with the support of Northern Ireland unionists , Conservatives would struggle to form a viable administration without reaching out to other parties . Meanwhile , a so-called " progressive alliance " bringing together Labour , Liberal Democrats , the SNP , Plaid Cymru and Greens would fall short of an absolute majority and produce a total only a few seats larger than the Tories on their own . The one combination which would creep over the crucial 326 mark would be a repeat of the 2010 Tory-Lib Dem coalition , which has been explicitly ruled out by Lib Dem leader Tim Farron . Labour , Lib Dems and the SNP have ruled out a formal coalition , speaking instead about the possibility of a minority administration being propped up on a vote-by-vote basis . A Labour spokesman said : " If this poll turns out to be anywhere near accurate , it would be an extraordinary result . Labour would have come from a long @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " There 's never been such a turnaround in a course of a campaign . It looks like the Tories have been punished for taking the British people for granted . " A Lib Dem source said it was " too early " to comment on the exit poll , but indicated the party did not have significant ambitions for gains : " In this election holding our own is a good night . " An man " wielding crow bar " is reported to have shouted " kill all the Jews ' " at a polling station in north London.reats . He shouted " f******g Jews , kill all the Jews , what are you doing here ? " as the man was leaving the building in Hackney before coming back later with a crowbar shouting more abuse , according to Jewish neighbourhood watch group Shomrim . Shomrim spokesman Chaim Hochhauser said : " This was a frightening experience for the victim . " I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who came to the aid of the victim and helped him leave the premises to find a safe place . " Police arrested the man on suspicion of a racially or religiously aggravated public order offence at around 5pm in Clapton Common . He has since been taken to an east London police station for questioning . Political betting on the 2017 general election is set to break records despite the short campaign and unexpected decision by Theresa May to call a vote , bookmakers have said . Ladbrokes believes more money will be placed on the outcome of the poll than on any other as it emerged some punters have placed bets of ? 20,000 on the Conservatives winning a majority and another of the same amount on Jeremy Corbyn entering Downing Street .

" Mr Corbyn added : " I am very proud to have represented Islington all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all that I 've learnt from the people I represent in Parliament .

Honour : Maria Whitehead , of Hawkshead Relish Company , with the firm 's family business of the year award By Duncan Bick 9 June 2017 8:03PM TWO south Cumbrian firms have received national honours for the quality of their produce . Hawkshead Relish Company , which is based in the Lake District town it is named after , won in the small family business category at the national Family Business of the Year Awards . The Churchmouse at Barbon , which is in Barbon , near Kirkby Lonsdale , took home the hotel and leisure prize . Maria Whitehead , who runs the relish company with her husband Mark and daughters Abbie and Izzy , said : " We were absolutely thrilled to bits . I very much believe that family values are the most important thing to us . The Whiteheads formed the company in 1999 , growing out of making condiments for the restaurant they owned at the time . Following the foot and mouth outbreak in 2001 and the hit that business took as tourists stopped visiting the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ produce 6,000 jars a day , with more than 150 different products , and export to 35 different countries . The total number of staff they employ varies between 26 and 28 . Mrs Whitehead said : " Foot and mouth really got us into going into the making of relish and chutney . Prior to that it was a bit of a sideline , it was not the main part of the business . " " Everything was tied up in the business , " she added . " If the banks had foreclosed we would have lost everything . " She added that the company would make heavy use of the award win in its marketing strategy and felt it would help them enormously . Other nominees from Cumbria included confectionery firm Grasmere Gingerbread and Sally 's Cottages , of Keswick . Mrs Whitehead was pleased to see such a large selection of businesses represented at the event . " It is absolutely huge for Cumbria , " she said . " There were so many businesses shortlisted from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will lead to more people paying attention to the county 's business scene . The Churchmouse is a village shop and restaurant in South Lakeland and has been owned by Jules and John Natlacen ( corr ) since 2013 . The husband and wife team are originally from Manchester and moved to Cumbria in 2002 and took over what was a struggling shop to give " Barbon the shop it deserved " . Mrs Natlacen said : " We were absolutely thrilled . We went down there ( London , where the awards were presented ) with no expectations so we were pleasantly surprised . " |

Alison Brie is sleepy . Jetlagged from flying in from LA to promote her latest show , women 's wrestling drama GLOW , she 's just woken up from an afternoon power nap and her California drawl is punctuated by yawns and lazy laughter . It 's OK , because I 'm sleep-deprived too , having stayed up into the small hours bingeing on the latest Netflix series from the creators of Orange is the New Black . " Yeah , bingeing on Netflix , I love doing that too , " she says , pleased that GLOW appears to have that just **37;334;TOOLONG effect that made OITNB such a hit . Set in 1980s Los Angeles , GLOW is all about women 's wrestling in all its big hair , big slams and tiny Lycra leotard glory . Based on the real story of the 1980s female wrestling league , it has the same executive producers , Jenji Kohan and Tara Herrmann , as OITNB and is co-created by Liz Flahive ( Homeland ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ruth Wilder , a struggling actress , too meek and " real " to get a gig until she is called to audition for a new weekly professional wrestling show , the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling or GLOW . Dismissive at first because she sees herself as a serious actor , when she 's rejected as not quite right again , she comes out fighting , determined to win a place in the ring , and stay there . " Ruth is at the end of her rope but very determined and very passionate about performing . As soon as she gets told again she does n't have the right look , it lights a fire under her and she fights to stay part of it . Although she scoffs at first , she finds it a really creative and challenging outlet . Plus , she wants to be liked by her peers . " Like Orange is the New Black , with its ensemble cast of female characters , GLOW is as much about the interpersonal relationships of the women as it is about the action . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to execute everything from a suplex to a choke slam . " Yeah , we 're watching these women learn how to wrestle and about their strengths and weaknesses , who they want to be . Ruth realises that how people see her is not how she 's always envisioned herself . She believes herself a great actress , but feels invisible and not respected . Now she steps forward as a leader for this group of women . " Much of the challenge to Ruth comes from one of the few male characters in GLOW , washed up producer Sam , played by US comedian Marc Maron , who ca n't decide what he likes least about her , the face or , the personality . " Marc could n't have been better cast for this role , and we had very natural chemistry on set , " she says . " Sam finds Ruth grating , obnoxious and desperate , but her determination wins him over and they realise they have the same goal , which is to make a great show . Sam also @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dreams . This show is so off the mark of what they imagined for themselves , but they realise that it could be their thing , their legacy . " Fighting for a role is something that Brie , born in LA , raised in a Dutch , Irish , Scottish , Jewish household and trained at the California Institute of the Arts , has experience of herself . Never more so than for the part in GLOW , in a classic case of life mirroring art . " Oh yeah , I was told many times by my agent they do n't think you 're right for the role . So I had to work to win them over and I felt myself becoming more and more like the character every time I came in again to audition . It 's very satisfying to fight for something you really believe in and prove people wrong . " So what was it about Brie they were n't sure about ? Now 34 , she has hit shows on her CV , with eight years as Trudy Campbell @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ college sitcom Community . She 's done comedy with How To Be Single , Sleeping with Other People with Rebel Wilson , Get Hard with Will Ferrell , The Five Year Engagement and The Lego Movie . Then there 's her voicing of Diana Nguyen , a feminist Vietnamese American ghostwriter in the off-the-wall animation comedy Bojack Horseman . Brie also voices other characters in the show , including Cow Waitress , an unnamed server with a bad attitude and Vincent Adultman ( three kids stacked on top of each other in a trench coat ) . " It 's a really fun space to be , to experiment with different voices , being silly and surprising yourself , " she says . Then there 's her physique , which is super fit with daily workouts with a personal trainer . So was it her face , was she " too real " to play real or could the GLOW casting directors initially not see past her more polished former roles ? She laughs as she ponders the question . " Everything is third hand , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ picturing for the role . I think there 's a grit and an edge to this show that I have not really demonstrated before . So I did physical things like going to auditions with no make-up at all , wearing workout clothes with my hair tied back , because Ruth 's a woman who does n't care about that kind of stuff , does n't know how to play the game . I think I come off maybe too polished having worked on a network show for six years and eight on Mad Men , with the costumes , the hair and make-up , and there 's just an image of me that I have honestly been looking forward to shattering . " Being told I was n't quite right was even more proof to me this was a role I wanted to do . They do n't think I 'm right for it ? That 's exactly why I want to do it . " Going back to the 1980s meant a physical transformation for Brie , to develop the physique of a wrestler , with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ half times her bodyweight and do push ups with 50lbs of chains on her back , plus the ten hour sessions with the other wrestlers learning the moves . Then there was the even more scary prospect of an old school perm . " Yeah , the hair was the biggest part . We cut it into a kind of crazy shag and it 's permed . A legit perm that took me back , because my mother was constantly perming her hair . The guy doing it told me it was going to smell a little and I said , ' I know the smell ... ' It 's a kind of nostalgic , comforting smell to me though . And oh my God , a perm is so easy , it 's the best ! I just loved having it . Now it 's grown out and it 's very short and straight , I so hope we get a second season so I can get another perm . " The perm might have gone but Brie has maintained the physical fitness , although she misses @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " There 's nothing quite like it , " she says . " The adrenaline that you feel , the constant overcoming of your own fears . We all felt like badasses , and still do . It 's something I 've carried with me from shooting , just a new confidence . The fearlessness , and knowing you can do it is like being a secret superhero . You walk a little taller and are more confident . " So is she able to go home and throw her new husband , fellow actor David Franco , around like a rag doll ? " Ha , ha . No ! There were times when I would come home and say ' I want to show you this ' , and then you realise right away the other person has to know how to do the moves too , it 's kind of like dancing . Otherwise you could both get hurt . " OK , so she 's on her own with her favourite move , the suplex , a two person body slam that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the mat . " It 's great , you should google it , " she says . I do . It 's terrifying . But Brie is enthusiastic about her new love and the benefits of sport for women in general . " I think it 's always a good idea to get into something physical that kind of scares you . It 's good to do things that intimidate you , push yourself to prove your worth to yourself and it 's nice to teach girls that it 's OK to get your hands dirty . " One of the big things about GLOW is the 1980s setting , a time of female empowerment where women who had grown up during the second wave of feminism reading Betty Friedan , Andrea Dworkin and Gloria Steinem , were now fighting for rights around the workplace , sexuality , family and reproduction . " Ruth 's life does not revolve around a man , " says Brie . " Whereas although Trudy in Mad Men was a very independent character and changes a lot over the years @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and wanted to be a good wife first and foremost . Her goals were in the home . Ruth could n't be more opposite . None of what Ruth does ever has anything to do with pleasing men . I think it 's likely one of the reasons she has not yet succeeded as an actress because she does n't know how to play that game . She does n't flirt , she does n't wear make-up , she 's not living her life in a way that 's hoping to get male attention . She 's living in an era coming off the very intense feminism of the 1970s . " So does Brie think those battles have been won , or does each generation have to rediscover feminism for itself ? " Women have to keep fighting , and also evolving , because the world continues to change and certain battles do n't need to be fought any more , so you re-evaluate . But yes , we have to keep fighting . " Not that you have to worry about being hit over @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of all it 's a comedy , it 's meant to be fun and set in the weird and wonderful world of wrestling , a twilight zone between sport and entertainment , one of the things Brie loves most about it . " What makes it so unique is that wrestling is its own beast and GLOW is its own world . The silliness , broadness , outrageousness , the characters that were created . " With period settings from the 1960s to the 1980s to contemporary times under her belt , a second series of GLOW aside , Brie is now looking forward to something different . " I always try to do unique jobs , things I have n't done , " she says . " I 'd love to do some drama , a thriller or maybe some sort of horror movie . Those things interest me and kind of scare me . They would be a fun challenge . " Brie goes on to qualify with , " Well , I 've done a bit of horror , Scream 4 , and a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with a demon foetus that possesses her so she kills people and eats their body parts . Yes , I played that character ! It was intense and campy and fun and truly terrible , but in the best way . " Before she dips her demon toe into the world of horror , she has two films set for release : Little Hours , due out this month and available online , and Disaster Artist , both working opposite her husband David Franco . " Even just to be in the same city is great after often spending months apart on different jobs . Working on the same set and on the same film is nice . And playing the love interest is wonderful , to act like you 're in love with someone that you 're really in love with . " Inspired by Boccaccio 's Decameron , Little Hours was filmed in Tuscany and seeks to give the humorous stories of the 14th century Italian writer a modern and unashamedly common touch . Brie and Franco also play the love interest in his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a true story of the making of the 2002 film , The Room . " It 's well known , well in LA , as the worst movie ever made and it has an intense cult following , midnight screenings and fans who recite all the words . So it 's a look at the making of that movie and the larger than life character who made it , played by James . It 's just premiered in Austin at the South By Southwest Festival and I think it 's coming out later this year . " Born in Hollywood and raised in LA by a musician dad and education worker mother , Brie went to drama college in her home city , and while there did a three-month exchange at the RSAMD in Glasgow . It 's an experience she now describes as " probably the best three month period of my entire life " . " I loved it so much ! " she says . " I have Scottish blood , from my dad , so I really liked being there . Glasgow itself is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ theatre , it 's a very artistic city . Knowing you 're there for only a short period of time is very freeing . You just go for it . At college I thought if I make a fool out of myself I 'll never see anyone again anyway , so I took more risks and we had great workshops , improv capoeira , or a new take on Medea ... and I was also more social too . It was like on GLOW , wanting to give it my all and be the first to try the scariest wrestling moves and jump right in . It 's a great way to live your life . Trust your instincts and run full force after things you want . That 's something I try to do . " Inspired by the likes of Sigourney Weaver in the original Alien ( she took a picture of Weaver to GLOW producers as a suggestion for her wrestler 's haircut ) , Annette Bening , Frances McDormand and Laura Linney , Brie loves watching women who can flit in and out of being @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I mean , Meryl Streep , obviously . People who impress me with their range and consistency of good work , " she says . It 's time to get ready to rumble with the waiting press assembled for the GLOW promotion junket , so with another yawn and stretch , she powers off to sock it to ' em with her California charm and sunny laugh , and if that does n't work , maybe a friendly choke hold . " I just hope GLOW will be inspirational to people in lots of different ways , and continue to forge a way for the women coming behind us . It 's women of all shapes and sizes really inhabiting their bodies and learning what they are capable of . That 's what 's cool about it . For these women the primary thing is not male attention . They 're living their own lives and forging their own way for themselves . " |

Blairite MPs who opposed Jeremy Corbyn will not be welcomed back into the shadow cabinet , senior allies of Jeremy Corbyn have indicated , as the Labour leader vowed to push forward with his far-left plan for Government . Instead , moderate MPs who have not been supportive of the leader could be offered roles developing policy for the party in a bid to reward the loyalty of those who stayed by Jeremy Corbyn 's side . Both Emily Thornberry and John McDonnell yesterday warned against replacing the shadow cabinet with senior moderate MPs amid fears it would create a further rift within the party . It came as Mr Corbyn vowed to force Theresa May out of Downing Street and take over as Prime Minister as a shock new poll showed the party six points ahead of the Conservatives . The Labour leader yesterday called for a second General Election in the coming weeks and months amid claims that his party would win if another ballot @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ May 's Queen 's Speech in the Commons and to table his own instead in a bid to frustrate the Prime Minister 's ability to govern and ultimately force her out through a vote of no confidence . Mr Corbyn said Labour is quite ready and able to put forward a serious programme of government " , which he said " obviously has massive support in this country " . Jeremy CorbynCredit : Reuters Although the chance of him succeeding is slim , a poll showed support for Mr Corbyn and Labour growing in the wake of the shock election result which saw Mrs May returned to Downing Street but with her majority in tatters . The party is now six points ahead on 45 per cent , its best result throughout the entire campaign . A chaotic attempt to forge a power-sharing deal with the DUP looked to be on shaky ground over the weekend and Mr Corbyn sought to capatilise on the problems by promising to push ahead with his programme for Government , including ending austerity . It came as scores @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their own manifesto yesterday and Graham Brady , the chairman of the powerful Tory 1922 committee , said the Prime Minister could learn from Mr Corbyn 's " avuncular " leadership style . In what will be seen as a heavy blow to Mrs May 's authority Mr Brady , who chastised her for failing to thank colleagues who had lost their seats in her speech after the vote last week , said she should get better at communicating with voters to appear more human . The Prime MinisterCredit : EPA Speaking to the Sunday Mirror Mr Corbyn said : " I can still be Prime Minister . This is still on . Absolutely . Theresa May has been to the Palace . She 's attempting to form a government . " She 's then got to present a programme to Parliament . " We will -- obviously -- amend the Queen 's Speech . There 's a possibility of voting it down and we 're going to push that all the way . " We have got a mandate to deal with issues of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to end austerity and invest in this country and that 's what we 're going to do . " Nearly 13 million people voted for us to do it . That 's why I 'm here . " Asked whether Blairite MPs , many of whom have experience in Government , should be welcomed back despite their previous criticism of Mr Corbyn both Emily Thornberry and John McDonnell cast doubt on the idea . Anti-Corbyn Labour MPs have now come together around their leaderCredit : PA The shadow chancellor told ITV 's Robert Peston : " My view is we want to draw upon all the talents , but our shadow cabinet at the moment was a winning team , it 's just won effectively votes that no-one predicted that we would , so I do n't want to break up that winning team " . But he appeared to indicate there could be other jobs for those who want to return , including Yvette Cooper and Chuka Umunna . He added : " There are a number of vacancies that will be coming up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ other roles that people can play . We now want to ensure that we 're a cohesive party , cohesive family , because the country needs us . " Ms Thornberry , the shadow foreign secretary , said : " There are a lot of very good new people who have joined the shadow cabinet who have stuck with Jeremy Corbyn through thick and thin , very difficult times and that needs to be recognised . " There are a number of things people can do ... chair of select committees , looking at policy submissions , there is plenty to do we need everybody on board to be able to do it . " Yesterday a new poll for Survation , taken after the general election , showed Labour six points ahead of the Conservatives on 45 per cent of the vote . It is the first time any poll has put Mr Corbyn ahead since Mrs May took office after the EU referendum . The Labour leaderCredit : Reuters The poll also found that around half of the public asked think the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ majority she asked for in order to deliver Brexit . Only 38 per cent of people said she should stay . The poll shows a dramatic turnaround in Mrs May 's fortunes after surveys throughout the election campaign and before put her streets ahead of Mr Corbyn in terms of popularity and ability to lead the country . Boris Johnson , the foreign secretary , is the most popular Conservative figure to step into Downing Street according to the poll , with 26 per cent of people calling for him . Just behind was Philip Hammond the Chancellor , on 10 per cent . If Mr Corbyn is successful in voting down the Queen 's Speech then he could have the chance to form the next Government but achieving it would be difficult . Labour would have to secure the support of Conservative backbenchers and almost every other MP in the House of Commons in order to defeat Mrs May , as long as her own members support her . |

Both Emily Thornberry and John McDonnell yesterday warned against replacing the shadow cabinet with senior moderate MPs amid fears it would create a further rift within the party . It came as Mr Corbyn vowed to force Theresa May out of Downing Street and take over as Prime Minister as a shock new poll showed the party six points ahead of the Conservatives . The Labour leader yesterday called for a second General Election in the coming weeks and months amid claims that his party would win if another ballot @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ May 's Queen 's Speech in the Commons and to table his own instead in a bid to frustrate the Prime Minister 's ability to govern and ultimately force her out through a vote of no confidence . Mr Corbyn said Labour is quite ready and able to put forward a serious programme of government " , which he said " obviously has massive support in this country " . Jeremy CorbynCredit : Reuters Although the chance of him succeeding is slim , a poll showed support for Mr Corbyn and Labour growing in the wake of the shock election result which saw Mrs May returned to Downing Street but with her majority in tatters . The party is now six points ahead on 45 per cent , its best result throughout the entire campaign . A chaotic attempt to forge a power-sharing deal with the DUP looked to be on shaky ground over the weekend and Mr Corbyn sought to capatilise on the problems by promising to push ahead with his programme for Government , including ending austerity . It came as scores @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their own manifesto yesterday and Graham Brady , the chairman of the powerful Tory 1922 committee , said the Prime Minister could learn from Mr Corbyn 's " avuncular " leadership style . In what will be seen as a heavy blow to Mrs May 's authority Mr Brady , who chastised her for failing to thank colleagues who had lost their seats in her speech after the vote last week , said she should get better at communicating with voters to appear more human . The Prime MinisterCredit : EPA Speaking to the Sunday Mirror Mr Corbyn said : " I can still be Prime Minister . This is still on . Absolutely . Theresa May has been to the Palace . She 's attempting to form a government . " She 's then got to present a programme to Parliament . " We will -- obviously -- amend the Queen 's Speech . There 's a possibility of voting it down and we 're going to push that all the way . " We have got a mandate to deal with issues of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to end austerity and invest in this country and that 's what we 're going to do . " Nearly 13 million people voted for us to do it . That 's why I 'm here . " Asked whether Blairite MPs , many of whom have experience in Government , should be welcomed back despite their previous criticism of Mr Corbyn both Emily Thornberry and John McDonnell cast doubt on the idea . Anti-Corbyn Labour MPs have now come together around their leaderCredit : PA The shadow chancellor told ITV 's Robert Peston : " My view is we want to draw upon all the talents , but our shadow cabinet at the moment was a winning team , it 's just won effectively votes that no-one predicted that we would , so I do n't want to break up that winning team " . But he appeared to indicate there could be other jobs for those who want to return , including Yvette Cooper and Chuka Umunna . He added : " There are a number of vacancies that will be coming up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ other roles that people can play . We now want to ensure that we 're a cohesive party , cohesive family , because the country needs us . " Ms Thornberry , the shadow foreign secretary , said : " There are a lot of very good new people who have joined the shadow cabinet who have stuck with Jeremy Corbyn through thick and thin , very difficult times and that needs to be recognised . " There are a number of things people can do ... chair of select committees , looking at policy submissions , there is plenty to do we need everybody on board to be able to do it . " Yesterday a new poll for Survation , taken after the general election , showed Labour six points ahead of the Conservatives on 45 per cent of the vote . It is the first time any poll has put Mr Corbyn ahead since Mrs May took office after the EU referendum . The Labour leaderCredit : Reuters The poll also found that around half of the public asked think the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ majority she asked for in order to deliver Brexit . Only 38 per cent of people said she should stay . The poll shows a dramatic turnaround in Mrs May 's fortunes after surveys throughout the election campaign and before put her streets ahead of Mr Corbyn in terms of popularity and ability to lead the country . Boris Johnson , the foreign secretary , is the most popular Conservative figure to step into Downing Street according to the poll , with 26 per cent of people calling for him . Just behind was Philip Hammond the Chancellor , on 10 per cent . If Mr Corbyn is successful in voting down the Queen 's Speech then he could have the chance to form the next Government but achieving it would be difficult . Labour would have to secure the support of Conservative backbenchers and almost every other MP in the House of Commons in order to defeat Mrs May , as long as her own members support her . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It mentions 'keep Jeremy Corbyn out of Downing Street', which is a different construction involving 'keep out of' followed by a noun phrase, not a VP[-ing] predicate. There is no V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] structure present, and it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

Dr Liam Fox has said he has " absolute faith " in Theresa May . He told Sky News : I have absolute faith in the Prime Minister , I think she is the best person to take this country forward in terms of being able to give a Government that is genuinely in our national interest and I very much look forward to working with her . I am delighted to be back here at the Department for International Trade , I 've got a wonderful tream here who have been getting ready and preparing for what we are going to take forward and I think in terms of the politics its no time for the whole of the Conservative party to rally behind the Prime Minister and get a Government in the national interest .

They confirmed their joint commitment to restoring a Northern Ireland Executive as soon as possible and agreed that both countries would continue to engage closely to bring about political stability in Northern Ireland . The Prime Minister reiterated that the Government 's approach and objectives in the forthcoming talks to re-establish the Northern Ireland Executive remained unchanged . The two leaders spoke about their willingness to continue close cooperation as the UK embarks on leaving the European Union , with no return to a hard border . The Prime Minister thanked Mr Kenny for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ him well for the future and said she looked forward to continuing a close relationship with his successor . This tiny number of MPs that is generating all these headlines , I think my colleagues are going to get angrier and angrier with them if they carry on . Lets just remind the Conservative party and my colleagues , the danger is if you carry on rocking the boat , you three or four or five people , you will finish up with Corbyn in Downing Street . Yes , he smells power here because of the disarray that 's followed this election . The first flush of a few days after a general election is not the time to decide to jettison your leader , that would be very , very destructive . In six or twelve months time , if we have another General Election , it will be the fault of those MPs in my party who are trying to capitalise on this situation to reverse the decision of last year 's referendum .

The Good Friday Agreement brought an end to 30 years of political violence in Northern Ireland when it was signed in 1998 . The Agreement promised " rigorous impartiality " from the UK government over any disputes in Northern Ireland , which critics say would become impossible if the DUP joined forces with Theresa May . The largest party in the Northern Ireland assembly , the DUP is locked in a bitter dispute with the republican Sinn Fein party after the collapse of a power-sharing administration that ran the devolved government of Northern Ireland . Lord Heseltine , the former Deputy Prime Minister , has suggested that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on whether the Government would last , he told BBC Radio 4 : No . It will not go immediately because there is no appetite for another general election and every party in the house will calculate in their own self-interest . They know the government is weak , they know the economy is going to deteriorate and they know public opinion is going to change from one where they do n't want an election to one where they are calling out for change . So there will come a time when the opposition politicians will strike . In the meantime they will simply harry the government . Speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live 's John Pienaar , he added : The present Government can not last . It 's not under immediate threat because I do n't see any likelihood of the opposition parties forcing an election , May herself is not going to choose another throw of the dice so time is not critical for the decision making . Tory backbenchers and Labour are expected to force the Prime Minister to abandon key pledges , including means-testing the winter fuel allowance and axing the triple lock on state pensions . Even some of the biggest champions of grammar schools in the Conservative party acknowledge that the party 's manifesto pledge is likely to be watered down . Graham Brady , chairman of the 1922 select committee , said that the Tories are now likely to resort to a " modest sort of pilot " rather than a more significant overhaul . He told BBC Two 's Sunday Politics : " If we ca n't get things through parliament , then we ca n't do them . " But I would certainly suggest that we could look , for instance , at a rather modest sort of pilot looking at opening some state grammar schools in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is not offering great opportunities to people from lower income backgrounds . " The party 's manifesto is likely to be watered downCredit : Dave Thompson/PA In one of the most contentious policies of the manifesto , Mrs May announced plans to means-test the winter fuel allowance to prevent wealthier households from claiming it . The policy drew opposition from both Conservative MPs and from Labour . Tory back-benchers want the Prime Miniters to either scrap the plans or make clear that the threshold for the means test will be applied at a higher level . John McDonnell , the shadow chancellor , has made clear he wants to scrap it entirely . It is one of the most contentious policies in the manifestoCredit : Joe Giddens/PA The Prime Minister unveiled plans to abandon the triple lock on state pensions rises , which sees the state pension rise in line with either wages , inflation or earnings - whichever is highest . The policy was toxic for the Conservatives during the election and widely interpreted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Again , it is a policy which Labour resolutely opposed in its own manifesto . Given the hostility of many backbenchers , it is likely to be quietly ditched from the Queen 's Speech . May has unveiled plans to abandon the triple lock on state pensions rises Another hugely divisive policy , the Prime Minister 's commitment to a free vote on fox-hunting surprised many in her own party . It was quickly exploited by Labour to cast the Tories as out of touch , especially given that many Tory MPs are resolutely opposed to opening the way to legalising fox hunting again . Members of the Old Surrey Burstow and West Kent Hunt Credit : REUTERS/Luke MacGregor The Great Repeal Bill was at the heart of the Conservative manifesto . It committed to repealing the 1972 European Communities Act and ending the jurisdiction of the European Court of Justice . Labour pledged to rip up the bill and replace it with legislation that guarantees workers rights , consumer protections and environmental regulations . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this as an opportunity to derail the Government 's plans for Brexit .

She said : We 've got Theresa May squatting in Downing Street , we 've got a full rebellion going on in the Conservative Party , we 've got no idea as to what 's going to be in this Queen 's Speech , they have a manifesto that 's been completely been repudiated by the public and indeed by Tory MPs themselves , and no idea what the DUP will agree to or not . After the party surpassed expectations by winning 262 seats , roughly 40 per cent of the vote , Mr Goodwin , a professor of politics at Rutherford College , University of Kent took to Twitter to admit defeat . Professor eats book live on air afterLabour wins 38 per cent of the vote Charlie Flanagan said he has raised the matter with Northern Ireland Secretary James Brokenshire , although it remains to be seen what deal is agreed between the Conservatives and Arlene Foster 's party . Mr Flanagan was asked about suggestions that any Conservative deal with the DUP would undermine Westminster 's impartiality as a co-guarantor of the Good Friday Agreement , also known as the Belfast Agreement . He told ITV 's Peston on Sunday : Well , not necessarily the case . Of course , it remains to be seen what the nature of that deal is . But this is an issue I did address the evening before last with Secretary of State James Brokenshire . I look forward to meeting with him again tomorrow if his appointment is reaffirmed , but yes I think it 's an important issue that you raise - the objectivity of both governments , and both governments working strictly in accordance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Irish government as co-guarantor , indeed the British Government as co-guarantor . Mr Flanagan added the EU member states are " ready to roll " when it comes to Brexit talks . These are due to start within days although they could be delayed given the UK 's political uncertainty . Mr Flanagan said : I 'm conscious of the fact that this clock is ticking . We 're a year now since the referendum . We lost some time over the last seven weeks during the General Election campaign . Europe is ready to start these negotiations . Ireland is ready to sit with our 26 EU colleagues and commence the negotiations because uncertainty is the enemy of stability and uncertainty is the enemy of business . Asked if he would be against a delay , Mr Flanagan said : We 're ready to roll . My understanding from all of my EU colleagues is that they 're ready to roll . " It 's been said that Europe wishes to punish the UK , I see no evidence of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Could Labour defeat the Tories on unpopular policies ? Shadow chancellor John McDonnell said he believes there is a majority in Parliament to maintain the winter fuel allowance and triple lock pension , two things the Conservatives proposed changing in their manifesto . He told ITV 's Peston on Sunday : I believe the DUP is in favour of scrapping the bedroom tax . There 's a whole range of issues like that where we think there 'll be a majority in Parliament . Northern Ireland 's Democratic Unionist Party ( DUP ) leader Arlene Foster told Sky News " very good discussions " had been held over an arrangement to support a minority Conservative UK government . She said " there 's been a lot of hyperbole about the DUP since Thursday , a lot of things said , a lot of people who really do n't know what we stand for but just to be clear , we will act in the national interest . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Corbyn said : I think it 's quite possible there 'll be an election later this year or early next year , and that might be a good thing because we can not go on with a period of great instability . We have a programme , we have support and we 're ready to fight another election campaign as soon as may be , because we want to be able to serve the people of this country on the agenda we put forward , which is transformative and has gained amazing levels of support . Corbyn " quite possible " theres another election this year , and says he and Labour 's supporters are ready Pressed if he was being clear that the UK will leave the EU , Mr Corbyn said : Absolutely . Where I frame it is , we want a tariff-free access to the European market , we also want to maintain a very important university and research collaboration in Europe , and there 's a whole host of European agencies - Euratom , security , environment - in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tell you this , we will absolutely remain part of the European Convention on Human Rights and European Court of Human Rights - we are not walking away from those vital post-war agreements that were made . He also warned Theresa May that she must consult more closely with the Cabinet and with Tory backbenchers following her General Election humiliation . He said the Prime Minister recognised that she would have to adopt a more collective approach after seeing her Commons majority swept away . Sir Michael , who was one of the first ministers to be confirmed in his post by Mrs May on Friday , welcomed the resignation of her co-chiefs of staff Nick Timothy and Fiona Hill - blamed by some in the party for the election debacle .

The Survation study gave Labour a five-point lead over the Tories , with Jeremy Corbyn 's party on 45% and the Tories on 39 per cent .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'Iain Duncan-Smith' is the NP subject, 'talk' is the V1, 'her' is the NP object, and 'resigning' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, as the action of talking is preventing her from resigning. The verb 'talk' fits into the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot by means of verbal persuasion. The NP object 'her' functions as a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'resigning'. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Has anyone ever been hoist higher on their own petard than Theresa May ? Last July , she chained the Brexiteers to their punishment jobs : you made this mess , she told Boris Johnson , David Davis and Liam Fox , so you can bloody well clear it up . Nothing gave her such mischievous joy since frolicking through those fields of wheat . Eleven months later , she serves at Boris ' pleasure in the most humiliating punishment job known to political history . Barely in office by the skin of her teeth , with the power to do nothing but plap out the platitudes , she is the creature of colleagues who can remove her at will whenever the timing suits . She is also at the mercy of both the creationist gay-bashers of the DUP ( assuming a deal with them can be salvaged from the chaos currently engulfing the talks ) ; and of Ruth Davidson , who may not invite too many of them to her lesbian wedding , and a baker 's dozen of Scottish Tory MPs dead set against a hard Brexit . Jeremy Corbyn says there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ held hostage by three groups with clashing demands , the only quibble with George Osborne 's " dead woman walking " is that it understates the hopelessness . On death row , there 's always that glimmer of hope that the governor will commute the sentence while you 're finishing that last meal . But May is strapped into Old Sparky , watching her executioners fight for the right to throw the switch , if not twitching in the chair as the acrid smoke sidles from her hair . Even she must realise that from today 's front pages , though whether she spent the previous 48 hours believing she could soldier on indefinitely is disputed . One report claims it took Iain Duncan-Smith , the idiot of the zombie village whom no earthly power can lay to rest , to talk her out of resigning on Friday morning . But according to a minister I bumped into on Saturday , she genuinely thought she could survive indefinitely . " Oh yeah , " this minister said , " she really is that deluded . " Nicola Blackwood said the UK spent much less than competitors such as Germany and the US PA Former First Minister Alex Salmond is standing for reelection in the constituency of Gordon , Scotland PA Rex Features PA If so , today 's headlines have exposed the limitations of a strategy borrowed from Seinfeld 's George Costanza , who arrived at work the Monday after furiously quitting the previous Friday meaning to continue in his job as if nothing had happened . It did n't work for him either . If her Tory hostage-takers think they can keep May as a figurehead purely to avoid the quick second election they would expect to lose , they should be disabused of that fantasy within days . Every hour she survives , isolated without her thuggish duo of advisers , and with the vocal support of no one but fellow cyborg Michael Fallon , the Conservative position weakens @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ country that has already given her a punishment beating for an opportunistic election . It will kneecap the Tories if they send her into battle in Brussels on our behalf . It will shoot them in the head if she strikes a deal with the DUP to threaten a fragile Northern Ireland peace process by openly favouring the Protestant community over the Catholic . If these pennies still have n't landed on their thick skulls , it will become clear very soon that any further displays of transparent self-interest at a moment of mounting national crisis will gift No 10 to Jeremy Corbyn . In this context , the notion that the EU divorce negotiations should begin on schedule next week is deranged . It 's one thing sending the captain to the middle with a broken bat , quite another to send a political corpse to the crease to face bowling so hostile that it makes the 1980s ' West Indies quartet of quickies look invitingly tame . If sanity were a stronger currency than these turbulent times permit , May would demand a postponement and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ new leader ( Boris , Davis , Amber Rudd or an outsider bursting from the pack in traditional Tory style ) has been chosen to fight a second general election in October , by when Germany may have clarified matters a little with its own election . She may yet do so . The only element absent from the torrent of post-catastrophe analysis has been any effort to imagine her psychological state . I suppose you 're asking for that when you play the android , but May is in fact a human being . As such she will be deeply traumatised , if not paralysed , by shock , regret and shame . Every instinct will be screaming at her to get out as fast as she can , and flee to Maidenhead with the Arthur Askey husband to sob her heart out in private . If the murderous mauling in store at the parliamentary party meeting brought forward to Monday does n't make up her mind to go , the clinical dismantling from Jeremy Corbyn ( magisterially relaxed and confident with Andrew Marr today ) at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her is close to unbearable . It wo n't take much of a final straw to break her now . Fatally wounded prime ministers ( John Major after the ERM disaster of 1992 , Gordon Brown after 2009 ) have staggered on before . But I ca n't recall a decomposing cadaver stood at the dispatch box with the stench of rotting flesh nauseating both chamber and country . She may be the plaything of her Cabinet , the tartan Tories and possibly the DUP , but the British are in no mood to have our future held hostage by whatever the Conservatives believe their own interests to be . God knows what lunacy will replace it , but this madness must end now . |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject (implied 'you') + V1 ('be fooled') + NP object (implied 'you') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('seeing the big picture'). It can be paraphrased as 'Don't let someone cause you to move out of seeing the big picture as if by fooling,' which aligns with the movement/extraction interpretation. The verb 'fooled' fits into the category of verbs that involve deception or trickery, and the NP object (implied 'you') is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

Do n't be fooled out of seeing the big picture . This is not politics as normal . The carefully constructed house of cards has been swept away . It is politics more chaotic , more brutal than any thriller . The Conservative Party has a reputation for ruthlessness - getting rid of even much loved leaders when they are no longer a tool to maintaining the party 's rule . The defenestration of their idol Margaret Thatcher was a sign of that . But this is far more cruel , a breathtakingly savage lesson in the exercise of power . Mrs May has been broken on the electoral wheel but is forced to stand on splintered limbs , grimacing through the pain , for the sake of her party 's chance to cling to office . She is like a medieval monarch , captured by her barons , shorn of the advisers she loved and trusted , allowed one old close friend to minister cold comfort . The government is stable as a two-legged stool , and she is sapped of strength , weakened by the demands of her colleagues . Image @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I have spoken to no Conservative who thinks she can last more than two years - many say six months , some a few days . What 's worse , they openly admit they do n't know how long she can cling on , or what would be the trigger that pulls the trap . I suspect she is still there out of agonising duty , not arrogant ambition . Perhaps I am wrong . Perhaps Mrs May thinks if she can hold on for 18 months , change her style of government , do a good Brexit deal , she can win the next election whenever it comes . Weirder things have happened . But that 's only true because so many weird things have happened recently . When it 's rained fishes and then frogs , it 's an unwise seer who tells you cats and dogs wo n't follow . But such self-belief and self-confident resolution would be almost superhuman in the face of such a savage surprise as the election result . After days of chatting to senior politicians @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by a highly sophisticated operator and veteran of many cabinets : " Who 's her jailer ? " The answer is the senior members of the cabinet and the influential 1922 committee of backbenchers , all desperate to avoid an immediate election and wanting a Queen 's Speech and the start to Brexit talks . No-one else wants the job quite yet . But on the other hand , no-one wanted the chaotic farce following David Cameron 's exit that produced this situation . People need time to draw breath - a few weeks , a few months , a few days . Many prime ministers begin as barely more than first among equals and end as dictators . Mrs May began her time in No 10 contemptuous of colleagues , ruling as an arrogant autocrat . Now , she is just the figurehead on the good ship Tory Resolution . Do n't blame Lynton Crosby , Nick Timothy or Fiona Hill , or those , such as David Davis , who advised her to go for an election . It was eminently sensible , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The failure was her failure . She was n't up to the campaign , did not live up to her role in the heroic narrative . There 's a hugely important practical impact to this diminishment . Any minority government is hostage to the whim of MPs . There is a popular belief that the whips do their job by bullying and threatening exposure of sexual and financial peccadilloes . In fact , it is blandishments and bribes that do the job . Image copyrightGetty Images Without a majority , any vote can turn into an auction , with the most truculent MPs bidding high in their own little causes , whether demanding more protection for hedgehogs or a new roundabout for the constituency . This is much magnified when the prime minister herself is so exposed . The most important impact is on Brexit . Theresa May called for a bigger mandate to get a better deal . It 's worth reading her exact words again . Taken literally , she will now get a worse one . It is reported @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ conversation , that he wants a " business-first Brexit " . There is talk of a cross-party alliance to press for a softer Brexit . On the whole , that 's code for dropping immigration down the priority list . Intriguingly , Lord Heseltine has suggested a deal might be done with France and Germany on freedom of movement , although he did n't suggest what it might be . Image copyrightPAImage caption Lord Heseltine On the other side , the right-wing newspapers and determined hard-line leavers in the Conservative Party will be just as jealously protecting their Brexit from such compromise . When a US president comes to the end of their term , they are often described as a lame duck , with little authority , because their power and patronage have a clear cut-off point - better currying favour with the next fellow . The same was said of David Cameron when he announced he would n't serve a full term . It is only partially true in those cases . But when a prime minister is on probation , when @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? " it will be much harder for her to broker deals and stick to her guns . Image copyrightGetty Images You could argue she has little to lose - but if she fails , the government might fall and an election looms . That 's quite a bit of pressure . We have learned again and again that political will counts for more than the traditional pundit 's logic . Mrs May could take comfort from St Paul 's letter to the Corinthians , find her " strength is made perfect in weakness " and emerge anew a figure of substance . But , for now , she makes the proverbial limping wildfowl look strong and stable . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks a verb in the V1 slot and an NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, the phrase 'out of agonising duty' does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate, and there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

After days of chatting to senior politicians @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by a highly sophisticated operator and veteran of many cabinets : " Who 's her jailer ? " The answer is the senior members of the cabinet and the influential 1922 committee of backbenchers , all desperate to avoid an immediate election and wanting a Queen 's Speech and the start to Brexit talks . No-one else wants the job quite yet . But on the other hand , no-one wanted the chaotic farce following David Cameron 's exit that produced this situation . People need time to draw breath - a few weeks , a few months , a few days . Many prime ministers begin as barely more than first among equals and end as dictators . Mrs May began her time in No 10 contemptuous of colleagues , ruling as an arrogant autocrat . Now , she is just the figurehead on the good ship Tory Resolution . Do n't blame Lynton Crosby , Nick Timothy or Fiona Hill , or those , such as David Davis , who advised her to go for an election . It was eminently sensible , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The failure was her failure . She was n't up to the campaign , did not live up to her role in the heroic narrative . There 's a hugely important practical impact to this diminishment . Any minority government is hostage to the whim of MPs . There is a popular belief that the whips do their job by bullying and threatening exposure of sexual and financial peccadilloes . In fact , it is blandishments and bribes that do the job . Image copyrightGetty Images Without a majority , any vote can turn into an auction , with the most truculent MPs bidding high in their own little causes , whether demanding more protection for hedgehogs or a new roundabout for the constituency . This is much magnified when the prime minister herself is so exposed . The most important impact is on Brexit . Theresa May called for a bigger mandate to get a better deal . It 's worth reading her exact words again . Taken literally , she will now get a worse one . It is reported @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ conversation , that he wants a " business-first Brexit " . There is talk of a cross-party alliance to press for a softer Brexit . On the whole , that 's code for dropping immigration down the priority list . Intriguingly , Lord Heseltine has suggested a deal might be done with France and Germany on freedom of movement , although he did n't suggest what it might be . Image copyrightPAImage caption Lord Heseltine On the other side , the right-wing newspapers and determined hard-line leavers in the Conservative Party will be just as jealously protecting their Brexit from such compromise . When a US president comes to the end of their term , they are often described as a lame duck , with little authority , because their power and patronage have a clear cut-off point - better currying favour with the next fellow . The same was said of David Cameron when he announced he would n't serve a full term . It is only partially true in those cases . But when a prime minister is on probation , when @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ?

Image copyrightGetty Images You could argue she has little to lose - but if she fails , the government might fall and an election looms . That 's quite a bit of pressure . We have learned again and again that political will counts for more than the traditional pundit 's logic . Mrs May could take comfort from St Paul 's letter to the Corinthians , find her " strength is made perfect in weakness " and emerge anew a figure of substance . But , for now , she makes the proverbial limping wildfowl look strong and stable . |

The sentence contains the phrase 'try to talk our young folks out of being,' which fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It also has a prevention interpretation, as the speaker is attempting to prevent young folks from being a certain way. The verb 'talk' is used in the V1 slot, which is a means of verbal persuasion, fitting one of the categories of verbs that can appear in this construction. The NP object 'our young folks' functions as a causee, and the construction is used in an active voice, all of which are consistent with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It also does not exhibit either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of keeping with' is a prepositional phrase modifying 'felt', and there is no NP object that functions as a causee in relation to a VP2[-ing] predicate.

There was actually a hint of a wince from Kylian Mbapp ? as the Italian referee blew the final whistle and finally brought a halt to his football season . That disappointment faded almost immediately , of course , as the France players conducted something akin to a lap of appreciation , yet as he left the pitch the teenager could not resist one glance up at the big screen , replaying his chance in stoppage time . Even a comforting arm round the shoulder from Antoine Griezmann , with some advice whispered in his ear , did not seem to improve his mood . About the only thing missing from Mbapp ? ' s staggering breakthrough season has been a goal to celebrate at this level . By the end his opportunities to break that duck were being eked out at every galloping counterattack , even with France depleted in number and braced for a game of containment . Jack Butland had saved at the striker 's feet when he was clean through , and blocked again as the Mon ? gasque glided beyond centre-halves who , in contrast , appeared to be running in treacle @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nine-figure bids from clubs from Primera to Premier Leagues . His best chance was actually handed to him by English dithering on the edge of their own box . N'Golo Kant ? darted in to prevent Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain collecting and the ball fell , obligingly , to the forward alone inside the penalty area . There was neat control with his first touch , a feint and turn inside to throw John Stones and Gary Cahill off the scent , and the goal gaped with Butland grounded . That he actually whipped his shot on to the crossbar felt utterly out of keeping with the senior campaign he has just enjoyed , though perhaps it also served as a reminder that this is a raw talent still under development . Yet he had the strength of character and composure just seven minutes later to liberate Ousmane Demb ? l ? to score this game 's fifth and final goal . That pair 's pace had tormented England all night , as Gareth Southgate went on to admit . " Today we had more legs , " offered Didier @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of a qualifying defeat in Sweden last week , but he will go into the summer break convinced he boasts a thrilling side to carry his nation 's hopes to next summer 's World Cup . England enjoyed their own moments to encourage them , with their entire set-up bolstered by the under-20s ' World Cup win on Sunday and the successful defence of the Toulon tournament . Indeed , Southgate had pointed pre-match to the youthful nature of his own selection as a cause of considerable optimism . But if England are a young team , then France are younger still . Read more They are benefiting now from the talent nurtured through their junior selections . There were eight players aged 23 or under in Deschamps 's squad here , and six members of Pierre Mankowski 's under-20s from 2013 who had beaten Uruguay in the age group 's World Cup final in Istanbul . Samuel Umtiti , suspended for that final but now developing at Barcelona , would slam the hosts level from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ captain in that tournament , Paul Pogba , is the world 's most expensive footballer and is already a figure of huge influence , a leader in youthful ranks whose distribution and presence dominated the centre here . Even Rapha ? l Varane , whose dismissal early in the second half had threatened briefly to check the home side 's momentum , is only 24 . Yet that generation is already being bolstered by a new wave of wide-eyed talent pushing for regular involvement . While the core of Paul Simpson 's successful England squad cut their teeth at the under-19s European Championships last summer , beating the French in the group stage before losing to Italy in the last four , Les Bleus progressed further in Germany . They claimed the trophy by thrashing the Azzurri 4-0 at the Rhein Neckar Arena in Sinsheim , with Jean-K ? vin Augustin the Golden Boot winner and player of the tournament . Mbapp ? , right , despite scoring five himself , almost slipped under the radar , yet where Augustin has struggled to dislodge Edinson Cavani at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Louis II . The youngest player to break into the France senior team since Maryan Wisniewski in 1955 , the Monaco striker sports the strut , maturity and game intelligence of one well beyond his 18 years , and showcased his abilities at England 's expense . Read more His close control in tight areas left markers on their heels , his pace searing from a standing start . The goals will come . As a microcosm of his talent , take the sprint on to Pogba 's lofted pass beyond Phil Jones , and the delicious pass slipped in-field with the outside of a boot to liberate Demb ? l ? . The 20-year-old , himself a stellar performer at Borussia Dortmund , missed that opportunity but offered reminders of his own precocious ability by capitalising on Cahill 's attempt at an interception just before the interval . The speed at which Demb ? l ? glided into the penalty area , coaxed Stones to dive in as he twisted his body inside , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Djibril Sidib ? , almost middle-aged at 24 , was so far up the pitch that the conversion of the rebound was a formality . Throw in Thomas Lemar , a 21-year-old at Monaco , and Benjamin Mendy , 22 but injured early here , and there were bright young things in abundance . " Of all the countries we 've played at youth level , France have been the most impressive in terms of the depth of talent and the athletic profile of the players , " said Southgate . " But their league provides a better opportunity for young players to play regularly . " |

Citizens Advice has identified 10 common excuses employers use to try to mislead their staff about their rights , covering things like the minimum wage , sick pay , contract terms and conditions and the dismissal process . The charity said that in the 12 months to April , around 180,000 people approached them for help with a problem at work , while its online employment advice pages were viewed an incredible 9.3 million times . Gillian Guy , chief executive of Citizens Advice , warned that " unscrupulous bosses " are trying to trick their staff , for their own gain , and noted that those with " complex work arrangements " or whose circumstances change are often unsure of their rights . So what excuses are lenders using ? And what can you do if your boss tries to pull a fast one ? " You work for us , but you 'll need to pay your own national insurance contributions . " " We ca n't afford to pay you any more - you 'll have to go self-employed . " The first @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bogus self-employment ' .

It 's a way for them to save cash that they should be spending on their employees , and strip away some of your rights as an employee , which you do n't enjoy if you are a self-employed contractor . " You 're having a baby next year ? We 'll need to take you off that important project now . " Having a baby should n't lead to any changes to your working arrangements , unless you ask for them . If changes are imposed on you by your boss , that actually counts as a form of discrimination . " We do n't have to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hours contract . " This is just plain wrong . Some workers on zero hour contracts are in fact entitled to redundancy pay . Basically you need to have been working for the employer for two years or more , usually doing at least one shift a week . " We need to close for the next two days for stock taking , so you 'll need to take holiday . " The law states that if an employer needs you to take holiday , then you need to be given twice as much notice as the length of holiday needed . If that proper notice is n't provided , then you should be paid AND not asked to use leave . So what should you do if your boss tries to ignore your rights ? The first step needs to be collecting evidence of their behaviour . This covers everything from letters and payslips to emails and texts . It 's also a good idea to note down a record of conversations you 've had which can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with your boss . There could be a simple mistake at play , or they may have just misunderstood the law . You can ask a colleague or union representative to join you if you feel uncomfortable . If this does n't help , then it 's time for a formal discussion . Essentially , you need to put together a letter detailing your grievance . Acas has put together some guidanceon how to do this which can help . Finally , get some advice , whether from Citizens Advice or a trade union . You may want to pursue dispute resolution with your employer , or even go to a tribunal , but it pays to pick the brains of the experts . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes how the subject built a Hollywood career by means of playing villains, which does not involve a causee or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

But it 's as a priest on BBC 's Broken that he has finally proved what he 's capable of -- and it 's stunning It sometimes seems as though Jimmy McGovern named his latest show Broken because his aim is to break his viewers into pieces every week .

He commands the screen , his pain flitting across that gaunt , ravaged face reminding us that some of the best actors say most when speaking least . He commands the screen even when silent , his pain flitting across that gaunt , ravaged face ... Sean Bean in Broken .

Throughout it all Bean slowly , carefully builds up a portrait of a man who is both a part of this community and yet somehow apart from it , who gives freely of himself yet sits alone at the local bar , donning his sadness just as he puts on his chasuble for mass . As a study of loneliness it is thoughtful , subtle and ultimately mesmerising : a picture of a man on the verge of breakdown who is holding himself together through sheer faith and a desperate desire to atone . It is not the most obvious of roles for Bean , now 58 , who built a name for himself as a swashbuckler and sword-swinger , famous mostly for his many glorious on-screen deaths .

At the start of the year , a Facebook friend messaged me , telling me that she and a chum had been asked to leave their north London book group ( how I hugged myself on reading those words ! ) : she for posting a link on Facebook to a Spectator piece by me -- pleasingly and rather reasonably headlined ' The Brexit divide was n't between young and old but Ponces and Non-Ponces ' ; her friend for liking it . I was naturally fascinated , my curiosity driven by righteous indignation and unrighteous glee . I asked for more information and Judith -- my penpal 's suitably heroic name -- wrote back : ' The last line from the email of the man who runs the book group was " I am therefore asking you to resign from the group . This would be the honourable course for you to take . " ' Judith , he claimed , was ' unable to engage in rational discussion @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dare to disagree since the dawn of time . Judith 's like-happy chum Jane , a charming , pretty novelist , was so shocked by the book group 's behaviour that she decided to write a play about it . Would I like to be a co-author ? I would . That was January ; in April the Prime Minister called a general election ; by May our play was written , and in June the people went to the polls and a nation once more woke up , looked at the person sleeping next to them and thought : ' Who are you ? ' To say that these are interesting times is like saying Sarah Vaughan could carry a tune . I 've always been somewhat sceptical of the phrase ' The personal is political ' , but when Relate relate that one in five of their councillors has worked with couples who have fought over Brexit , we know that times have rarely been more interesting . Who knew , either , that there was so much hate within the left ? Growing up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was a curse word till I was a teenager . My father was the kindest and , yes , most noble of men -- maybe the fact that his socialism was a product of being genuinely working class , rather than a pose struck to impress/shame others , had something to do with it -- but I had no idea until Brexit of the bigotry that lurks within the Brotherhood of Man . We are often reminded of the ' hatred ' the referendum and recent election ' stirred up ' in our society -- warned off democracy by those who would control us for our own good , as if we were wayward children eyeing the biscuit tin . What these sorrowing sad-sacks fail to add is the hate comes largely from their side . Too much democracy has merely flushed the poison out . Brexit did indeed unleash hate -- but the hate it unleashed was not that of the British for foreigners but rather of the liberals for the masses . It sounds strange coming from someone who has made a lovely life out of peddling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ amazed -- and not a little amused , comparing their swivel-eyed social media savagery with their mollycoddling manifestos -- at the level of nastiness that the Great and the Good ( or , as I think of them , our Betters and Wetters ) have displayed over the past year . During my entire career of evil , from 17-year-old enfant terrible to 57-year-old grande dame , I only recall wishing death on one person -- well , two : the Eurythmics . But my dad , when he shouted ' Tory ! ' at the TV , was content to leave it at that . What my dad did n't do , unlike Alastair Campbell , was compare those who thought differently from him to jihadists . He would n't , unlike Julian Barnes , have wanted those who thought differently from him ' punished ' by an unelected club of bureaucrats . Unlike Ian McEwan , he did n't look forward to a time when those who 'd voted differently from him were ' freshly in their graves ' . He would n't , as Paddy Ashdown @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as ' Brownshirts ' . My dad left school at 14 . He had no privilege . Yet he knew more and was capable of far more decent behaviour than these privileged , highly educated men . He was from the working class , so he knew better than to dismiss the working class for thinking that they deserve something better than sleeping six to a room and working weekends for the minimum wage . If he 'd seen the tax-avoiding multi-millionaire Bob Geldof and his boatful of Remainer mates mocking a flotilla of men worried about making a living under EU rules , he 'd have known which one was the ship of fools . What is this alt-hate , this caring , sharing cruelty ? When comedians had to stop telling jokes about non-whites , I felt no need to hear jokes which demonise the old , the Jews and spirited women instead , but weirdly a number of comedians seem to feel the need to tell them . And these are also the most frequent victims of hatred from the alleged left . There 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it : The horrible thing about the Two Minutes Hate was not that one was obliged to act a part , but that it was impossible to avoid joining in . Within 30 seconds any pretence was always unnecessary . A hideous ecstasy of fear and vindictiveness , a desire to kill , to torture , to smash faces in with a sledge hammer , seemed to flow through the whole group of people like an electric current , turning one even against one 's will into a grimacing , screaming lunatic . And yet the rage that one felt was an abstract , undirected emotion which could be switched from one object to another like the flame of a blowlamp . Brexit -- and the wounding of Mrs May -- seems to have brought out the beast in the most mild-mannered herbivores . And unlike those of us who have always enjoyed malice and spite as small parts of a balanced emotional diet , those kept in check -- castrated even ! -- by their membership of the Brotherhood of Man seem highly susceptible to getting high @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ They call people who do n't agree with them Nazis -- or eject them from north London book groups even ! -- at the drop of a hat . So our play is not just about Brexit , but about the intolerance of those who define themselves as tolerant . We 're anticipating it wo n't be the easiest thing to sell -- the arts world is probably 99.9 per cent Remoaner -- but Jane and I remain emboldened by a review from the estimable Susannah Clapp , theatre critic of the Observer , of the shockingly bad anti-Brexit play cobbled together by the Poet Laureate : ' It is old hat ... We are in a different , more obviously dark condition , the closest to civil war than any time in my life . Old friends can not bear to be in the same room with those who voted differently . That is the country I 'd like to see on stage . ' And here we are !

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'dozing in and out of sleeping' does not involve a transitive verb with an NP object followed by 'out of' and a VP[-ing] predicate. Instead, 'dozing in and out of sleeping' describes a state of intermittent sleep without the causative or preventive interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'taken out of policing' where 'policing' is a noun, not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

LANCASHIRE 's police chief has warned ' cracks are now appearing ' in the service because of tough government cuts . Chief Constable Steve Finnigan said the force has lost 800 officers and 400 other staff in the last seven years of his 12-year tenure and admits people are now not as safe as they used to be . He believes policing is ' at a tipping point ' because of the amount of money and people taken out of the service . In a hard-hitting interview to mark his impending retirement at the end of the month , Ch Con Finnigan pulled no punches as he told of his fears for the police service in these times of austerity . Ch Con Finnigan , who has 41 years ' experience as a policeman , said : " I have reflected on the three terrible terrorist attacks in London and Manchester and they have caused me to want to reiterate some of the comments I have expressed for quite a few years now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " I have always been pretty consistent about my views on the cuts and the scale and the pace of them have been too deep and too quick . " I am saying now that the cracks are appearing . " I think now we are at a tipping point and there needs to be an authentic conversation about where we go now in terms of policing . " I have no doubts that the cuts have made it much more difficult for us to deliver on our mission , which is to keep people safe from harm and feeling safe , especially the most vulnerable . " I do absolutely acknowledge that the Government during austerity has had to prioritise and make some tough choices and policing was always going to have to do its bit .

Actually it is moving very rapidly to a reactive method of policing . " Ch Con Finnigan said he believed improving neighbourhood policing was the key to a better service overall . He said : " Neighbourhood policing is thinner here than it was before . " What we absolutely need is more officers out on the ground , talking to communities . That is our lifeblood . " If we are to put ourselves in a better position to have at least some chance of preventing further atrocities then we need to see more investment in neighbourhood policing .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves an intransitive verb 'come' with no NP object and the second predicate does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'Kick Theresa May out of Downing Street' involves a physical movement interpretation but lacks the -ing form in the VP2 predicate and does not involve a causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Left wing campaigners are planning a " day of rage " to coincide with the Queen 's Speech this week in protest over the conditions they claim led to the Grenfell Tower blaze and the deaths of at least 58 people . Militant groups are planning to march on Parliament on Wednesday in a show of anger at the Government 's austerity policies they say led to the tragedy . Led by the Movement for Justice By Any Means Necessary - formed in 1995 by a number of Marxist groups - campaigners are urging protesters to " walk out of school , take the day off , call in sick , strike " . Advertising the event the movement 's Facebook page declares : " We must escalate our actions to take down this rotten government , which has lost all authority to govern .

This is about justice for everyone I would expect people from all strands to be there . " The calls for mass protest came after an angry demonstration outside of Kensington Town Hall on Friday afternoon , when relatives and friends of those feared dead in the Grenfell fire forced their way into the building . Several of the protesters , which also included left-wing campaigners , carried banners reading " The Tories have blood on their hands " and " Kick Theresa May out of Downing Street " . The protest 's organiser , businessman and Jeremy Corbyn supporter Mustufa al-Mansur , said that " people had not been satisfied " with the council 's response to the disaster and had attempted to force councillors to answer their questions about the fate of their loved ones . Scotland Yard said no arrests were made either at the Kensington Town Hall protest or during march through the centre of London which followed . A second protest planned @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

Claudio , who has lived on Latimer Road opposite Grenfell Tower for four years , said : " Let 's be clear : what has happened here is a microcosm of many problems that are happening across the country .

" The bigger they are , the harder they fall " so the saying goes . Last week 's instalment remembered the MDC tripartite and how it has failed to correct what it dismissed . This week I want to remind Zimbabwe of Runaida Mugari whose history in the liberation struggle is now questionable . We have a memory of a 17-year-old helicopter shooter , which was challenged last year in a comically interesting narration . I am one person who never ignores information however , funny it may appear . I always assume some level or possibility of truth in it . Runaida has always been a woman who made most women believe in the possibility of competing with men , however , physically demanding the legacy was . The story of downing the helicopter may be true or untrue but what matters is the representation of her through that story in its " truthful " days . The history of the event depicts the possibility of any Zimbabwean woman shaping liberation legacy discourse . Her memoir of political competition reflects the ability of young competitive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 21 , she made it into cabinet setting the governance agenda . I can spend the whole day ululating what she represented for femininity and youthful achievements but let 's not forget how she threw all that away just because she felt the zest to join the band of failures . I do n't believe Joice Mujuru , as the world knows her , was rejected by Zanu-PF on 6 December 2014 . I have a strong conviction that she failed Zanu-PF . Her lack of discipline and denouncing of the system made her feel uncomfortable around people she had betrayed . Like any setup when people find out that you possess the Iscariosis -- a terminal illness of betrayal , your settling becomes thorny . Like Judas , suicide is the only method of recusal from the infamy you have clothed yourself in . The Vice of a President Mujuru betrayed the people who believed in her and she knew she had failed . Her disloyalty to the party demanded that she be excused and she never dared challenge that . Had she been remorse @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ daughter of the revolution . Like any other disloyal egoistic human being , feeling brazen and weak , above all , embarrassed , she formed a party together with those who had failed the retest -- a party that did not see the next Ramadan.One thing that perturbed me is , if she were sincere that her expulsion from Zanu-PF that December of 2014 was a passive allegation , why did n't she stay out of competing politics and appeal to be re-admitted as an ordinary member like what others did ? When she immediately forms an opposition party is n't that confirmation that she expunged herself from the system way before her expulsion and the ejection by the party was justified ? Is n't she disloyal ? Did n't she betray all those women who believed in loyalty to nationalism ? So Zanu-PF was n't wrong after all , she was compromised and she could compromise what the community stood for , already , she had exempted herself from the system . Show me your friends and I will tell you who you are When she @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , who too , for 34 years believed in Zanu-PF until no more or otherwise we heard how they suddenly found fault in the system . To us , from them , Zanu-PF had lost the plot of the liberation ethos . To us , from them , we are in undaunted misery because of Zanu-PF . To us , from them , Zanu-PF steals elections . To us , from them , they are here to provide the alternative of Zanu-PF because they have been in the system and they know how it 's run and they know better than any other opposition . She was the genesis of the " new " Zimbabwe , but I have questions which we have too long ignored . For 34 years Mujuru was a disciple of the system and had she not been expelled , was Zanu-PF going to be bad as she wants us to believe from her narrative ? She won numerous elections on a Zanu-PF card , does it mean she stole the elections ? The misery she talks of which she claims is a Zanu-PF construction @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do we exempt her from all she creates for us to believe ? Is n't this another raging drag race by a bruised bull which wants us to share its bleed ? Is n't she reactionary , only out to prove a point to those she despises and wants to drag us to hell with her ? Think deeply on that . Alarming enough is how she becomes exactly like Morgan Tsvangirai when she is in opposition . I think this is now a resident characteristic of Zimbabwean opposition politics , to form , split , and attempt to coalesce and fail . When Mujuru left Zanu-PF she presented herself as the best answer to the bereaved Zimbabwean only for people to find out how she has no plan of ousting her former masters . I find this hilarious because when people are not questioning her plan but expect her to be the answer in challenging the regime , how do they expect her to win ? She has no charisma and political charm besides the rhetoric that she has been in the system which she betrayed and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The most embarrassing moment was her discussion at Chatham House late 2016 . At such a global space and you lack an ounce of eloquence to articulate your plan of challenging the regime we question the authenticity of your struggle for power -- you most probably delved into it without an agenda -- the agenda of the agenda-less . Ornithological of identical plumage Like any other opposition , on 8 February 2017 Mujuru woke up in the morning and decided to expel the " elders " Rugare Gumbo , Didymus Mutasa , Munache Mutezo and Margaret Dongo , among others . In the afternoon of the same day we were treated to a dosage of comedy when the elders expelled her from the same party they had been expelled . This is no different from the 2005 Morgan-Welshman Ncube parody . They always expel each other because they entitle themselves to the party . The culture of self entitlement is cancerous in this country -- people want to own the struggle as if it 's theirs , which is why they expel each other . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ how different is she from any other masquerades in opposition ? It is about her , not the people as she claims . So I ask again , is Mujuru different from Tsvangirai who defies the party constitution to extend his stay in power and when he is expelled he instead expels those who expelled him ? What does Mujuru have on offer which she has said clearly ? Does she have the political mileage which the opposition thought she had after listening to most of her speeches in and outside Zimbabwe ? How come her Bulawayo structures crumbled when she was still Zim PF and she failed to manage them when she is now NPP ? If Mujuru has that political capital , what happened when her party NPP failed to mobilise female members for the 9 June Bulawayo Women 's rally at Amphitheatre that she had to bus women from Mashonaland ? Does she even have structures in Bulawayo ? If she were to run the race alone , would she get a single council seat ? Considering that she is part of the coalition @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ expelled or who expelled her ? Will she ever identify with the ordinary Zimbabwean whom she says she represents considering that she only became part of that group after she had betrayed the system ? When do we start to trust a person who betrayed her own folks who watched her back in the bush when a bullet could have snatched her ? Has n't she failed like any other quelling person ? Runaida , mama think again . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes a situation where Harman ran out of putting form, which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action denoted by a VP[-ing] predicate.

Major championships are now the domain of golf 's one-time pretenders . Seven in a row have been claimed by first-time champions , with the conclusion to the 117th US Open developing into a test of nerve for Brooks Koepka . The 27-year-old from Florida became the latest player to deliver on earlier and widely recognised promise . Koepka -- like Jason Day , Danny Willett , Dustin Johnson , Henrik Stenson , Jimmy Walker and Sergio Garc ? a -- is a bridesmaid no more . Even fresh , testing Wisconsin conditions for day four and the weight of history could not halt Koepka as he brilliantly pieced together a 67 . Three birdies in a row from the 14th provided the hammer blow to those in pursuit ; the eventual margin of victory was four shots , at 16 under par , a record-equalling US Open tally . Brian Harman and Hideki Matsuyama shared second place . Koepka 's glory owes plenty to a bold career path . Rather than play through low grade tours in his native United States , he opted to move outside his comfort zone and to Europe . US @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Challenge and European Tours , impressing seasoned observers on the way . Major wins , albeit never certain , appeared highly likely . This may be just the start . Of the players who fell short here perhaps Tommy Fleetwood has the most cause to be upbeat . The Englishman continues a tremendous 2017 , with aspirations of success at next month 's Open Championship perfectly realistic . This was , after all , his first time in major contention . Fleetwood finished fourth at 11 under . Read more Rickie Fowler 's challenge stumbled on the back nine while Harman , who had hitherto dropped only two shots in the whole tournament , was to run out of putting form when posting bogeys at the 12th , 13th and the last . Fowler 's 72 meant a share of fifth . Koepka 's triumph had a foundation on the greens . A birdie putt from 41ft at the 8th played a key part in reaching the turn in 33 . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lead was virtually unassailable . The prize was a record $2.1m . Matsuyama came to grips with this ferocious battle , embarking on a stirring chase from just inside the top 20 . The man seeking to become Japan 's first ever major champion posted a 66 for his 12-under total ; Matsuyama 's tilt at the top comes with the context of starting this tournament with a 74 . At that point he was 82nd . Matsuyama will rue one shot . His drive at the tricky 15th was pulled horribly into dense rough , from where he could only chip out sideways . The bogey which ensued proved damaging , though he should have the consolation of a rise to No2 in the world rankings on Monday morning . Matsuyama played the closing three holes in two under par despite being aware that one more time ruling would result in him being penalised a stroke . Justin Thomas encountered the problems associated with backing up a record-breaking performance . Thomas entered folklore on Saturday with the 63 which represented the lowest score to par in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ round , the 26-year-old was three over par . This back-pedalling inevitably left him with too much to do as others on the leaderboard collected early shots . So continues an ominous trend in Thomas 's career ; when things start to go wrong , he is not particularly adept at stemming the flow . Thomas 's 75 left him tied ninth . Given the list of illustrious names who could not survive past 36 holes here , special credit is due to Scottie Scheffler . The 20-year-old from Dallas finished as the leading amateur on the highly respectable 72-hole aggregate of minus one . As Scheffler continues his career , confidence clearly will not be a problem . " I was trying to compete and see if I could win the golf tournament , " he said . " I think it would be pretty cool winning the US Open as an amateur and that was my goal coming in . " Lee Westwood 's 76 perhaps impacted on post-round sentiment but the Englishman made it clear he would be in no hurry to return to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ US Open venue , " he admitted . " I prefer when they play the traditional golf courses . The two new ones they have played recently Chambers Bay and Erin Hills are n't as good as the older style courses like Shinnecock , Winged Foot , Oakmont and Congressional . " Jordan Spieth instead offered glowing praise towards the United States Golf Association 's management of this major . The 2015 champion signed off with a 69 for a total of one over par before acknowledging inevitable pressure as felt by the USGA on account of US Open controversies of recent times . " I was very , very impressed at the job the USGA did this week , " said Spieth . " I think they did a fantastic job . " Chambers Bay was tough with the greens and then last year had a tough Sunday . I thought that the USGA did a phenomenal job this week of allowing the golf course to be what it is and play the way it 's supposed to play . Not trying to do anything to hold @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ where , if you play well , you can score and , if you do n't , then it can go the other way . " There was no unfairness whatsoever . I thought the USGA did a fantastic job coming back this year and I know that they really wanted to . " It 's tough going to two new venues in three years that they 've never used before . That 's a difficult thing to do . I hate to say it 's surprising but I thought it was really well done . " Spieth was vague regarding his plans in advance of the Open Championship , raising the possibility he might spend some of his competitive build-up time in Ireland or Scotland . When he last won a major , in June of 2015 , golf 's biggest events seemed a closed shop for the elite . Times have swiftly changed . |

1 ) He is n't worth the money Real Madrid are n't going to sell Cristiano Ronaldo cheaply . He is their most marketable asset and their most prolific goalscorer . Even if this is n't all just a power play from the Portuguese to improve his current contract/detract from his alleged tax fraud and he does want to return to Manchester , Florentino Perez is hardly going to give him away . The latest figure , as plastered on the back page of the Daily Mirror , is that Manchester United would have to pay ? 175m plus David de Gea to sign Ronaldo . If we reasonably value De Gea at ? 80m , Ronaldo 's fee would almost treble the current world-record fee that United paid for Paul Pogba . That is ludicrous for a player with two to three years left at the highest level . For all the understandable excitement among a section of United 's support , the maths simply does n't make sense . Sorry . Having mentioned De Gea , let 's stick @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ broker a deal for Ronaldo that does n't include their current best player , you can be damn sure that Real will immediately reignite their attempts to sign him . Ronaldo would become United 's best player -- and so he should for the money -- but for three years De Gea has been the most consistent goalkeeper in the world outside of Gianluigi Buffon 's eternal genius . Having seen off Real 's latest attempts to lure De Gea back to Spain , it would be foolish to shake the hornet 's nest again . The two obvious questions with even more obvious answers are thus : Before Ronaldo decided he wanted out of Madrid , were Manchester United even contemplating this approach ? No . So is it worth completely shifting their transfer strategy based on the possibility ( not probability ) of signing a 32-year-old who is p*ssed off because of accusations of tax fraud ? Again , no . 2 ) And that money could be used more wisely Let 's conservatively say that a deal for Ronaldo would cost United ? 200m up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ spent to make it all about Ronaldo . Let 's reasonably say that the pursuit of Ronaldo will last for most of the summer , becoming the saga to end all sagas before being completed some time in early August . Every headline , season preview , pre-match question and post-match autopsy would all be centred around one man . Is that really what United need ? The last time they chased this golden goose over the course of a summer they ended up signing Marouane Fellaini and failing to land Ronaldo , Arturo Vidal or Leighton Baines . Even if the pursuit is successful this time , United have other areas in the squad that require surgery . They can use that ? 200m , and the time it takes chasing Ronaldo , on a long-term solution at right-back and left-back , and an heir to Michael Carrick . They could sign Fabinho , Tiemoue Bakayoko , Bernard Mendy then have ? 100m for the striker they so obviously need . Hell , with ? 200m they could turn Harry Kane 's head , give Daniel @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for the rest . None of this makes sense . 3 ) They 're just getting played anywayCall me a dreadful cynic , but in the world of football politics you ca n't always take every word and action on face value , and that 's particularly true when it comes to Jorge Mendes . Now maybe Ronaldo really has realised he is pining for a return to Manchester in the same week that he has been accused of tax fraud , but it would be a heck of a coincidence . Or , as is more likely , Ronaldo is attempting to persuade the authorities to drop the case against him by threatening to leave Spain , or persuading Real Madrid to agree to pay any fine he receives as part of an agreement to him staying at the Bernabeu . I 'll let you decide which of the three is most likely , but United must be warned against becoming a pawn in Mendes ' game . Their transfer activity this summer depends on it . 4 ) Does Jose Mourinho even want this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is no doubt that Ronaldo performed well under Mourinho 's management of Real Madrid . Yet there were constant rumours of bust-ups between star player and star coach , a battle of two extraordinary egos that were always likely to collide . Mourinho himself accused Ronaldo of being unable to take advice , while Ronaldo was filmed mouthing " f*ck you " towards Mourinho after scoring for Madrid in May 2013 . In his biography of Mourinho , Diego Torres describes the relationship as ' toxic ' , while in his biography of Ronaldo Guillem Balague recalls how Ronaldo had to be held back by his teammates to prevent him coming to physical blows with Mourinho . That hardly sets the scene for a serene homecoming . Ronaldo 's time at Old Trafford saw him transformed from slight winger to football phenom , but a lot has changed since . His father figure Alex Ferguson is no longer there , and nor too is Carlos Queiroz . You can not sign Ronaldo for what he was and what you remember , but for what he will go on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ never go back . If this transfer is indeed an exercise in willy-waving , United would be wary of going over Mourinho 's head . He is a coach who has excelled in his second season at various clubs , but also a man who demands total buy-in from players , coaching staff and the club 's hierarchy . Recruiting a star player without Mourinho 's say so is unlikely to cause anything other than deep fissures to appear in the club 's relationship with its manager . That is a problem that even Mendes , with a finger in every pie , might struggle to smooth over . 5 ) Are they learning the lessons from Zlatan Ibrahimovic ? You can not doubt the impact of Ibrahimovic at Old Trafford last season , but there is also no denying that Manchester United became overly reliant on his brilliance . There is an argument that Ibrahimovic 's ability to create a goal out of nothing actually stymied United 's general attacking creativity . ' Look for Zlatan ' became the mantra . " There 's not a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ look strong . It 's just that concentration in front of goal and just that over-reliance , really , on Ibrahimovic , " said Ryan Giggs in April . " He 's the centre-forward , but you need goals to come from everywhere , be it the wide men , midfielders , or even the defenders chipping in at set-pieces . " If United 's season actually suffered for having a striker that demands the ball at all times and thus becomes the centre of attention , that 's hardly likely to change if their pursuit of Ronaldo is successful . He guarantees two things : Goals and exposure . There may be nothing wrong with designing your attacking strategy around a forward who has scored more than 50 times in six of his last seven seasons , but there are those in Madrid who believe that Real could be better without Ronaldo , if it allows others to flourish . Given that he turns 33 next February , Manchester United must be aware of the same issue . Do they really want another ageing target man-style striker @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? |

On Tuesday the NHL officially switched from Reebok to adidas and every team in the league got a peek at their new uniforms . Some teams , like the Minnesota Wild , got a slightly different look . Others stayed mostly the same . The only difference comes in the shoulders and collar . The eagle logo on the shoulders is pushed up much closer to the neck . The piping on the team 's Reebok jersey went up the shoulders and met higher on the collar . In the new uniforms , the front of the collar is much less pronounced and the piping goes almost straight across the shoulders to the very front of the collar . It gives the jersey a square look which is I guess they were going for ? Because if I had one complaint about Reebok , it was those damn collars ! Ultimately , it is a minor change that most fans will not notice . The new jersey confirms an end for now to the throwback red jersey ( my personal favorite ) as each team will be limited to only two jerseys next season @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Washington will get a third jersey for the Stadium Series game , however , to be played in March at the Naval Academy . The other big news of the night was the reveal of Vegas ' first jersey : " It 's unfortunate that Madison had a couple of injuries there , especially the one to his ankle , " Mahoney said in a pre-draft media call this week . " But injuries happen all the time and you work your way through it . " Mahoney added : " Madison is pretty gifted athletically and I think his recovery from those things is going to be very good just because of his athleticism and the type of body that he has . " Bowey returned to the Bears ' lineup in mid-March . Then , just as he was rediscovering his pre-injury form , he took a puck off the face in early April and missed a few more games . The injuries pretty much ruined any chance he had of getting a game or two in Washington . And there were n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ good health and veteran-laden lineup . " Do I think he would have had an opportunity to play some games with the Capitals ? I think there was a very good chance , so it 's unfortunate that he did have the injuries and maybe that kept him from seeing some games , " Mahoney said . Instead , Bowey saw all of his 2016-17 game action in Hershey , where finshed with three goals and 11 assists in 34 games . The 6 foot 2 , 206-pound native of Winnipeg also had two goals and two assists in 10 postseason contests . In the preseason a year ago , Bowey , a right shot , was mostly good and even scored a game-tying goal against the Hurricanes . But he suffered an upper body injury two contests later and was demoted shortly thereafter . When Bowey arrives in Arlington , Va . a few months from now , he 's going to find something that did not exist last preseason : an opening ( or perhaps two ) for a young defenseman , depending on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " As far as camp , it 's up to him to come in and hit the pavement running and try to challenge for a spot , " Mahoney said . Speaking in general terms , Mahoney acknowledged that a handful of prospects are going to be in the running for spots on the Capitals ' opening night roster . " It 's really up to those players to come in and to impress the coaches during training camp and the exhibition season , and try to win a spot on the big club , " Mahoney said . " It 's up to them ; it 's going to depend on what they do off the ice and on the ice during the offseason here and come to camp and try to win a spot . " In 2014 , the Capitals selected Jakub Vrana 13th overall in the NHL Draft , banking on his potential as a top-line forward . In 2017 , the Caps will need him to take the next step in his progression of living up to that potential . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be a top-line forward in the upcoming season , but with top free agents expected to leave Washington , the Caps will need more contributions from their young players . Of the young players who the team needs to contribute next season , you can put Vrana 's name at or near the top of that list . On a conference call with reporters on Monday , assistant general manager Ross Mahoney was asked about which of the team 's prospects he considered NHL ready . Vrana was one of two players Mahoney mentioned specifically . Perhaps that should come as no surprise considering Vrana played 21 games with the Caps last season , but it does reflect the team 's expectation that he will be in the Caps ' lineup next this fall . He just has to earns his spot . " It 's really up to those players to come in and to impress the coaches during training camp and the exhibition season and try to win a spot on the big club , " Mahoney said . " It 's up to them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do off the ice and on the ice during the offseason here and come to camp and try to win a spot . " Earning that spot will be vitally important for Vrana . With the potential loss of T.J. Oshie and the 33 goals he scored last season , not only does the team need Vrana to earn a spot in the lineup , but he needs it from an individual standpoint as well . Vrana has reached a critical juncture in his career . He is now at the point where he is expected to make the transition from AHL to NHL . That is reflected in the fact that Vrana will not be at the team 's development camp taking place at the end of June . It is also due to the fact that Vrana may not be as focused in the AHL as the team needs him to be . Vrana 's 2016-17 season was a tumultuous one . After being sent back down to Hershey from the Caps , he seemed to struggle with his focus at the AHL level and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coach Troy Mann . " I think sometimes younger guys , they have to just focus on getting better every day and being very consistent with their play and that 'll help them , " Mahoney said . " A lot of times they start maybe thinking of too many things rather than just concentrating on that day and the next day and being consistent with their effort . " Mahoney made clear he thought there was a " very big upside " for Vrana , but his issues in the AHL reflect just how critical this offseason will be for the Czech winger . At 21 years old , he is still a young player , but it appears he has eyes for just the NHL . If he does not make the Capitals ' roster out of training camp , it seems fair to wonder if the AHL is even an option at this point . If he can not focus in Hershey because he wants to be in the NHL , there is no benefit to sending him there . But , if he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's NHL future lie with another team ? |

Life was very different in 1976 , when McDonald 's first sponsored the Olympics : Britain suffered a heatwave , there was a row about Europe and the hit film of the year was All The President 's Men , an expose of dark deeds in the White House . Since the Innsbruck Winter Games of that year , the relationship between the fast food giant and the world 's greatest sports event has been controversial , for obvious reasons . The last deal was signed in January 2012 and was due to run out after the Tokyo Games in 2020 but its worth noting that despite pulling out with immediate effect , McDonald 's will be present at next year 's Winter Olympics in South Korea due to a local organising committee deal . The rumoured cost of the partnership was in the region of $100m for eight years , which is a big financial commitment when there are so many new ways to spend the marketing budget today compared to 41 years ago . The company has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fame . " It is not an awareness issue , " said chief executive Steve Easterbrook , at the Sport Industry breakfast a few years ago . " People expect us to be a sponsor anyway , we could probably come out of sponsoring and people would still think we were associated with the event . " But it was notable how irritated the sponsor appeared to be when the IOC changed its advertising rules ahead of the Rio Games last summer . This allowed non-official brands - i.e. companies that had not spent $100m on IOC rights - to use athletes to build an association with the Olympics . The loophole was triggered by the explosion in digital and social media around sport . Under the IOC 's Rule 40 , official partners such as McDonald 's were protected from competitors advertising during the games . Most significantly , the athletes were not allowed to use their social media platforms to plug their own sponsors , some of whom are direct competitors of the official brands . When Rule 40 was relaxed , it prompted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what it is they actually get for their money . This is the key question . What is it worth ? And irritatingly , it 's not possible to give a simple answer , because the value of sport sponsorship is contextual . By that I mean , what its worth depends on what you do with it . For example , it 's hard to find a business case for the Olympics based on brand awareness . Almost uniquely in modern sport , the Olympics maintain a ' clean stadia ' approach , meaning there is no commercial signage in the arenas , unlike say the Fifa World Cup or Formula One . This lack of brand presence forces the brands to think more creatively about how to build an association with the famous five rings . And I 'd argue that McDonald 's did this better than most . The company 's designated rights mean that McDonald 's was the only branded food out outlet of any type within the Olympic Parks , Media Villages or Athletes Villages at every Olympics . You @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reported estimates that " one in five " of all meals eaten was a McDonald 's . These stories were propelled by pictures of Usain Bolt scoffing chicken nuggets after winning the 100 metres . Below that level however , I was always a fan of the way McDonald 's activated around the theme of volunteering , which helped showcase the company 's excellent training and career development programmes . For the IOC , the money will continue to roll in . But the exit of such a high profile B2C partner will cause some in the sponsorship world to pause and wonder what it means for the future of their industry . The Drum Marketing Awards have been running for over a decade , rewarding the best in UK marketing .

Hamilton , 32 , has ambitions of developing a music career . He also revealed his bucket list here in which he hopes to scale Mount Everest , become a better chef , and learn another language . But it appears as though the French lessons will have to wait . As is so often the way with Hamilton , who arrived in Azerbaijan 12 points adrift of Sebastian Vettel , he walked into the Mercedes motorhome with his face buried in his smartphone . But the Briton , this year chasing a fourth world title , which would elevate him ahead of his boyhood hero Ayrton Senna and into the pantheon of the sport 's all-time greats , came alive as he spoke of hunting down Juan Manuel Fangio 's haul of five championships , and perhaps even Michael Schumacher 's record of seven . The big ' R ' appeared a long way away .

" People ask me , ' What 's motivating you ? ' I still want more . I still want two championships . I always wanted to emulate Senna , but then you set your sights on new goals , new challenges and new horizons so that 's really the discovery phase . " When I think about Fangio , five titles sounds pretty good . Vettel 's only one away from five so if I get to five he could easily equal that , and then I 've got to get six . " The human race is a greedy kind , and we always want more . There 's no real limit to what we can achieve . The limit is a state of mind . " Hamilton 's state of mind -- one that is always under question given his whirlwind lifestyle -- is far r ? emoved @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with Rosberg . The former childhood friends no longer share a bond of any sort . But Rosberg 's sudden retirement -- just five days after winning ? ? ? his maiden championship -- coupled with Valtteri Bottas 's arrival at Mercedes and this year 's title battle with Vettel has changed the Briton . The defeats do not appear to taste as bitter . Hamilton however , may have his work cut out to build on winning the Canadian Grand Prix a fortnight ago by claiming victory tomorrow . The Briton was only 10th in yesterday 's practice session at a track which races against the backdrop of Baku 's Old City 's walls , and where he came unstuck last year . Hamilton crashed out of qualifying then and finished only fifth . His troubles in practice marked a topsy-turvy day of action with Max Verstappen fastest in both sessions , while both under-fire British driver Jolyon Palmer , and Force India 's Sergio P ? rez crashed into the wall at turn eight . It was a corner where Hamilton 's rival ?

Firefighters were called to a blaze at Grandholm Bowling Club , Bridge of Don , just after 7am yesterday .

Kim Kardashian has now come out to claim that the pictures were photoshopped to be more unflattering . ' I was already not feeling like myself and when people were like sharpening them and making them look way worse , ' said Kim on The View , calling the photos ' awful ' . ( Photo by Lorenzo Bevilaqua/ABC via Getty Images ) That 's fair enough . If Kim thinks the photos were deliberately unflattering , that 's a perfectly okay thing to say , and it 's pretty possible -- a lot of people would be keen to catch Kim not looking flawless . But I ca n't help but dream of a world in which , rather than pointing to unflattering Photoshop and magicking away the existence of cellulite , Kim Kardashian had owned up to it , smacking down all the people who declared she was less attractive or desirable for daring to have some dimpled skin on her body . It 's possible that Kim is entirely cellulite-free , and not a dimple can be seen in any lighting or setting . But it 's unlikely. * @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . So Kim would need stellar odds to be as smooth as a ripe apricot . ( Picture : Photo by Taylor Hill/FilmMagic ) To own up to that would be to take down the idea that cellulite is something for overweight middle-aged women desperately buying smoothing creams , and to show everyone that cellulite really is n't the big , awful thing so many seem to think it is . It would be saying ' hey , a woman generally considered extremely hot and sexy can have cellulite ' . It would say that you can work out loads and have cellulite , that you can have access to all the fancy creams in the world and have cellulite , that you can be toned and have cellulite . That would have been powerful . The pressure to be perfectly smooth and cellulite-free is yet another one of those ridiculously unfair , unreachable standards of beauty women have to deal with . ( Picture : Ella Byworth for Metro.co.uk ) We 're told to have tiny waists and big butts . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have curves , but those curves can only appear in accepted places ( butt and boobs instead of your tum , for example ) , and can not have a hint of stretchmarks or other blemishes . Sometimes it feels like there 's a committee of beauty just waiting to spot something , point it out , and thus take away a woman 's status as a hot person . When Kim was pregnant , she was bashed for having swollen feet and , well , being pregnant . People were so ready to tear her down , to ' prove ' that she was n't as attractive as she appeared to be . The same thing happened with those cellulite pics . But this time around , Kim does n't have an ' excuse ' . Instead of owning up to cellulite or shutting down her critics , Kim has backed down . She 's denied that she really looks the way she does in those photos . Kim also said on The View that she 's used those photos as motivation to exercise , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ good enough . ( Picture : Getty ) ' When people were making the photos look way worse , I was like " okay , I 'm going to get it together " , ' said Kim . ' I started working out with this bodybuilder girl . ' To get this straight , cellulite is not a sign that you have n't ' got it together ' . It 's not a sign that you 're not working out enough , that you need to lose weight , or that there 's something wrong with your body . Cellulite is down to genetics . It 's appears more commonly on women ( that might be why so many men feel able to freely bash cellulite and call it ' gross ' or ' ugly ' ) and is simply the connective tissue that separates fat beneath the skin . For women , the collagen tissue is shaped like honeycomb , which allows the skin to appear dimpled . That does n't mean , to be clear , that cellulite only happens if you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ honeycomb grid . ( Picture : Ella Byworth for Metro.co.uk ) Everyone has fat . You 're supposed to have fat . People with cellulite just happen to have connective tissue that shows up dimpled . It 's genetic , and losing weight or working out more wo n't magically get rid of it . Cellulite can be visible all the time , visible just in particular lighting , visible only when you 're sitting down , or out of sight entirely . That 's all normal . But despite the fact that cellulite is healthy , normal , and common , we 're still taught to hate it with a burning passion . Even when we 're shown plus-size bodies ( a massive step after years and years of endless super slim bodies on our catwalks and in our adverts ) , their cellulite will be smoothed away or hidden with clever hemlines . ( Picture : Ella Byworth for Metro.co.uk ) When we never see other people 's cellulite , is it any wonder that we look at our own @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? I do n't want to get all conspiracy-ish ( that 's a lie , I bloody love a conspiracy theory ) , but wake up , people : we , as a society , have polished away cellulite on the bodies we see in popular media to create a niggling doubt in everyone 's minds that cellulite should n't be on our skin -- all to sell whatever the latest buzzy beauty buy is that 'll make us ' perfect ' for the bargain price of anything between a fiver and ? 5,000 . It 's become so ingrained that we now genuinely see something that 95% of women have as hideous , unattractive , needing to be hidden . It 's nuts . The only way to break this down is by shouting out our cellulite loud and proud . If we stopped tugging down our hemlines and covering dimpled thighs with sarongs on the beach , it 'd show young women that cellulite is nothing to be ashamed of . ( Picture : Getty ) And if celebrities like Kim @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ critics not by rushing to the gym , but by declaring that yes , they have cellulite , and that 's perfectly okay , it 'd show everyone that having cellulite and being attractive are not mutually exclusive states . The reality is , if we 're women , we 're likely to have cellulite . If we 're women with the body type currently deemed attractive -- a big butt and thick thighs -- it 's even more likely for cellulite to be visible . Stop acting as though a bit of cellulite rules you out of being hot forevermore . And dear lord , can we stop photoshopping , erasing , and entirely denying the existence of cellulite ? It 's here . It 's normal . And no posh cream is going to make it budge , so we might as well get used to it . |

Losing to Fiji was such a massively disappointing way to end what has been a fantastic tour . Before Fiji I would have said this was the most enjoyable tour I 've ever been on in terms of quality of training , quality of rugby , people we have met , places we have seen and I do n't want to row back away from that too much . Beating Australia was awesome . The culture of the Scotland squad is getting stronger all the time . Some of the boys have n't played much rugby and if our culture was weak then they might gripe and , mentally , they might leave the tour and that might impact on the mood of the group . You 've heard of that happening in the past but it has n't happened here . Regardless of number of minutes on the pitch , every player has had a big part to play and that 's why losing this game really hurts . We were desperate to win all three . We @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their hands at times . We 'd get into the right areas of the pitch and we 'd turn the ball over , we 'd give away penalties , we 'd make too many mistakes , we 'd do things that are not natural to us . We did some crazy stuff that was just not in our system of playing . There 's a double-edged sword in taking risks . You want to encourage guys to play - a lot of really positive stuff came out of running at Australia and backing ourselves - but it has to be accurate . And we were n't accurate . The conditions made it tricky . The pitch was wet and the ball was like a bar of soap . It was hard at times to hold on to it . But throwing loopy passes and just lining ourselves up to get smashed was n't clever rugby . There were too many hospital passes . The boys are flat . We all know we did n't show the same kind of maturity against Fiji that we showed against Australia @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ game . We should have gone more to mauls , where we got success . We should have tired them out . Regrets ? Yeah , we have a few . Fiji are an outstanding team with outstanding individuals and a collective spirit that was there for all to see . Leone Nakarawa 's highlights reel is ridiculous . Against Australia he had 15 offloads which is about what a whole team might expect to have . Peceli Yato , their openside , is one of the best in Europe . Josua Tuisova is a fantastic player . You miss one tackle against these guys and let them in behind you and you 're in trouble . We missed too many . At no point did I feel we were controlling the game . Racing and Fiji lock Nakarawa is well known to the Scotland players having played for and against Glasgow Warriors in recent years We 'll have a think about all of this . I do n't want to get too down about it because I know we 're moving forward and I know @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . It 's been a joy these past weeks . We 'll be stronger because of everything that has happened - victory and defeat . For now , I need a break . I have to get a small operation on my wrist when I go back and then I 'm on holiday in Greece with the family . I 'm looking forward to getting back to them . We 're going away with Ryan Wilson and his family . He still ca n't get enough of me despite being my room-mate for a month . He 'd better have his own toothbrush by then . No doubt we 'll talk about the tour but we 'll also talk about November , when , fingers crossed , we 'll all get to meet back up again for three Tests against New Zealand , Australia and Samoa . That 's something to look forward to . In the meantime , farewell from Fiji and have a great summer . John Barclay was talking to BBC Sport Scotland 's chief sports writer , Tom English |

Emre Can has been passed fit for Germany 's Conferedations Cup clash with Cameroon . The Liverpool midfielder had been a major injury doubt for the showdown in Sochi after limping out of training on Saturday . Can got his studs caught in the turf and had complained of discomfort in his knee . However , the 23-year-old has responded well to treatment over the past 24 hours and Germany boss Joachim Low has decided to start him . The former Bayer Leverkusen man impressed as Germany won their first game against Australia before drawing against Chile . A draw will be enough for Can and his German team-mates to make the semi-finals of the competition , meaning he would continue playing football until at least July 2 , the date of the final and the third place play-off . Portugal and Mexico are already through to the semi-finals from Group A. |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'get' is transitive and selects an NP object 'great pleasure', but it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of hearing the crowds...' does not involve a causee participating in the event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate.

It 's called terrier racing . It 's fast , it 's furious and , according to organiser John Aldridge just about anything can happen . Interview by Neil Hudson What do you get if you cross a group of dog enthusiasts , a hundred-year-old sheep shearing machine and any number of terriers ? Well , according to terrier race organiser John Aldridge , the answer is pure unbridled entertainment . He ought to know , having taken up the pastime about five years ago , after being introduced to it almost by accident . Several years on , the self-employed builder , who recently turned 50 , is one of only a handful of people organising such events in the North . And he says the crowds love it . " We do mostly village and agricultural shows and when the terrier racing comes on , you can have it three deep around the arena . People love it because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And according to John , it usually does . The idea is simple enough . The terriers are lined up in a series of starting traps ( not unlike those used for greyhound racing ) , a lure is set and then the dogs are released . What follows is a frenzied , often chaotic dash down the course as the dogs , most of them at least , race hell-for-leather to catch the lure . The winning dogs have to pass through a small hole in a hay bale wall at the end of the course but not all of them make it that far , as John explains . John Aldridge , who races his two terriers , Spud and Rocky " You get some dogs who know exactly what they 're doing and they just fly out of the traps and down the course but then you get others that go off in different directions , some will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ down . " We get a lot of people coming with their own dogs , they all know where the race is . Over the years , we 've built up quite a following , so we have people who come regular . We can have up to 30 dogs on any one day . " We run them in heats , out of traps , they chase a lure and at the other end there 's a wall made of straw with a hole in it . It 's the first two dogs through the hole who go onto the next round . " Some go through together , races can be quite tight but on the other hand you get dogs who have never done it before and they just saunter down and potter about but that 's what makes it entertaining . It is different . People who have never seen it say that 's one of the funniest things they 've ever seen and that 's down to the unpredictability of the dogs . After we have done the final , we have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that 's chaos . You might have 30 dogs running all at once . " Shows want things like this now , because it 's unpredictable . You can watch someone jump over a fence on a horse but once you 've seen it , you 've seen it , whereas with terrier racing people know it 's going to be fun . It also gives people there a chance to get involved , they might have a dog and decide to enter it . " During the summer months , John , wife Lynne and their gang of helpers - Carl Sanderson , Dougie Winder , Chris Waterhouse and Steve Gaunt - are kept busy , often racing three weekends in a row . " We had a weekend off last week which was nice but then we do three weekends on the trot . We 're busy throughout the summer with a lot of village fairs and other events . " We depend on people turning up with their dogs and having a go at entering . A few years ago we had one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ its hair and I took one look at it and thought that 's not going to do anything . It looked like a pampered pooch that just sits around all day . " But when it came out of the traps , it flew like a rocket , still with the pink ribbon in its hair , which made for a comical sight . " John and Lynne got into terrier racing about eight years ago , as one of their friends organised races . John recalls : " It started at Broughton Games Show . A friend of mine called Simon Smith used to organise it . At that time , we did n't have a dog , we 'd just lost one . I said if we get another , we will get a terrier and enter these races . " But then the racing stopped at Broughton and there was n't anything else around here . " So , I decided I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ equipment necessary . Now we do most of the agricultural shows in the area . We start off with Otley Show and end up at Pately . In between we do Arthington , Weeton , Keighley , Asquith Show and various other small events local to Menston . We 've done Guiseley Cricket Club for the first time this year and we 've just done the Craven Arms at Appletreewick , which was oranised by Simon Smith . " Perhaps another quirky feature of the event is how they power the lure . John explains : " The mechanism we use to wind the lure is a hand-driven sheep shearing machine that 's about 100-years-old . It was modified by a friend of mine , he put a spool on it to hold the line and then you just wind it like mad and it drags the lure along . I 've seen some places use someone sat on a bike peddling ... it 's a bit Heath @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ two minutes to set up and then we 're off . " John and Lynne own two terriers , Rocky , 10 and Spud , two but it 's Rocky who really took to the sport . " He was unbeaten for a good six years , " says John , proudly . " He 's slowing down a bit now but he still races . Spud 's not quite got the hang of it yet . " He says : " Terrier racing is quite popular in the Home Counties but as far as I 'm aware me and Simon are the only ones doing it up here . As long as people want us back , we 'll keep doing it . " Wife Lynne , 49 , adds : " I get great pleasure out of hearing the crowds and explaining to new spectators how to enter there dogs then watching them get hooked just like we did . As soon as the dogs get to the showground , they know what 's happening . " FACTFILE Terriers have long been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dig and chase things and are generally considered to be good natured They can hunt above and below ground and were often used by farmers to control vermin The word ' terrier ' is derived from the Latin ' terra ' , which means ' earth ' Dogs race down a track , the first through a hole in hay bales wins Contact John on 07903 982 723 Email : johnaldridge1@live.co.uk Facebook : Wharfedale Terrier Racing |

In the winter of 2008 , I went for a curry at an Indian place in a suburb fringing the parliamentary precinct , and found myself sitting a couple of tables away from Christopher Pyne and George Brandis .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes making a career from an activity, which is not the intended meaning of the construction.

A five-hour outdoor music festival in Mickleover will help to raise ? 1.6 million to redevelop a sports ground into a " focal point of the community " . The Hot August Night concert will feature a string of top tribute acts and will be held at the Don Amott Arena at Mickleover Sports Club . Up to 3,000 people are expected at the family concert and profits will be shared equally between the club and the Our Mickleover community group .

These pitches would then be available for hiring out by local football teams , both juniors and adults .

WITH a number of universities based here , the Cotswolds attracts an influx of new young people each year . Amber Griffin , a journalism student at the University of Gloucestershire in Cheltenham , explained why she believes the variety on offer in the Cotswolds makes the area such a fantastic place to visit . The Cotswolds has everything -- beautiful architecture , stunning landscapes , superb hotels and restaurants , and high streets and shopping centres packed with stores selling one-of-a-kind creations and the top brands . For those of us who are interested in culture and architecture , Bibury is one of the best places to go . This picturesque village is known for its beautiful 1380s Arlington Row cottages and the saxon St Mary 's Church -- both great spots for photography lovers .

Of course , you ca n't talk about shopping without mentioning Cheltenham , which is renowned for its upmarket Promenade and Montpellier area , and is also blessed by beautiful surrounding countryside such as Crickley Hill . Cirencester is equally admired for its shopping streets which mix brand names with chic boutiques , and the parish church and surrounding Abbey Grounds there are gorgeous , while the Corinium Museum offers a fascinating view into the town 's Roman history .

These green oases are perfect for walks , as is Broadway with its historic tower and array of traditions pubs .

Reasoning
×
The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'his widow' is the NP object and 'having the controversial Hungarian prime minister speak at the funeral' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. The verb 'talked' fits into the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot, specifically under 'By means of enticing, flattering, or verbal persuasion'. The interpretation is a prevention interpretation, as the action of having the prime minister speak at the funeral was prevented by means of talking. The NP object 'his widow' is a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

A European Union flag -- and only an EU flag -- will cover the coffin of Helmut Kohl on Saturday in an unprecedented ceremony to bid farewell to the father of German unification and European unity : an EU state funeral . Arranging the official Abschied for the man who served as German chancellor for 16 years from 1982 has been complicated , in logistical and diplomatic terms : from unscrewing the first row of seats in the European Parliament in Strasbourg to make way for eight German soldiers to bear his outsized casket , to accommodating the conflicting wishes of Kohl 's divided family and the German political elite . Since his death two weeks ago at his home in Ludwigshafen , Kohl has proved nearly as divisive in death as he was a unifying figure in life . It has taken two weeks of behind-the-scenes negotiations by German , French and EU officials to create a ceremony fitting for his status , and that would satisfy his family -- who did n't want a German state funeral , according to media reports . Kohl 's widow , Maike Kohl-Richter , had her own @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ farewell . Partly , it was because of Kohl 's difficult relationship with his party , the Christian Democrats ( CDU ) , and with the proteg ? who hastened his downfall as CDU chairman then succeeded him in the job : Chancellor Angela Merkel , who later failed to give her wholehearted backing for his nomination for the Nobel prize . Kohl pointedly invited one of Merkel 's harshest critics , Hungary 's Viktor Orb ? n , to his house in 2016 and his widow had to be talked out of having the controversial Hungarian prime minister speak at the funeral . Maike Kohl-Richter ( C ) , widow of former German Chancellor Helmut Kohl , Salomon Korn , chairman of the Jewish community of Frankfurt am Main , and Kai Diekmann ( L ) , former editor-in-chief of Germany 's newspaper " Bild " and close confidant of Kohl , look at a makeshift memorial of candles and flowers in front of Kohl 's house in Oggersheim near Ludwigshafen , western Germany , on June 18 , 2017 Arne Dedert/AFP via Getty Images Kohl-Richter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of international bigwigs who will give " personal farewell messages , " including Russian Prime Minister Dimitri Medvedev , former U.S. President Bill Clinton and former Spanish Prime Minister Felipe Gonz ? lez .

The EU hopes for a dignified and incident-free ceremony , aware that it comes at " a hugely symbolic moment for the EU , when we are seeing renewed confidence that European integration will succeed , " said one Brussels official . An EU diplomat said he " would n't be surprised if Juncker played a role " in persuading Kohl 's family to exclude Orb ? n from ( and , some say , include Merkel in ) the list of speakers .

" He added : " We owe it to him that Europe was able to expand to Central and Eastern Europe . " The ceremony may become a blueprint for EU state funerals in the future , though the number of institutions involved -- the European Parliament as the official host , plus the Council and Commission , the German interior ministry and French authorities as the ceremony takes place on French soil -- added layers of complication .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it includes the phrase 'got a thrill out of doing something you shouldn't', where 'doing something you shouldn't' is an NP complement of the complex preposition 'out of', not a VP[-ing] predicate inducing a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it does not qualify as an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A STUDENT drowned after swimming naked in the sea at the end of a long night out with friends , despite the " exceptional " efforts of a rescue team . Brighton University third-year Michael Turnbull had slipped into semi consciousness in extremely cold waters but was almost saved by the efforts of an eagle-eyed angler and a lightning-fast response from the Brighton Surf Life Saving Club . An inquest heard Michael , 22 , had been drinking and taken drugs the night before his death , while dancing at the Concorde 2 nightclub . He entered the sea near the West Pier shortly before 9am on Saturday , March 25 . Brighton and Hove senior coroner Veronica Hamilton-Deeley concluded his inquest on Tuesday by saying the substances in his system , though " not excessive " , may have " contributed to making Michael less aware of his surroundings " and the effects of prolonged exposure to the bitterly cold spring tides . She praised the three-hour search by volunteers and Coastguard and council professionals , which began seconds after Michael 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to a " warm and lovely " young man with a love of travel and a " way with the ladies " . On the evening of Friday , March 24 , the English literature student went clubbing with flatmates at Concorde 2 . He was drinking beer and dancing and between midnight and 5am when they left , friends saw him take two tablets . He walked home to his student house in Brighton and at 8am went to sit on the beach with a friend . They sat drinking and chatting and skimming stones as the sun rose in a clear sky over a flat sea . It was a beautiful warm spring morning . When friend Amy Laughton left him half an hour later he was content and happy , the Woodvale crematorium inquest heard . Just before 9am , Konstantinos Psaras saw a young man swimming by the groyne to the immediate west of the West Pier when he set up his fishing bait . " He looked like he was enjoying himself , " the angler said . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ half out of the water , by the side of the groyne and , embarrassed , did n't look back . Ten minutes later he noticed Michael was no longer by the shoreline , and saw him in the sea . A wave washed him from his back to lying face-down in the water . Seconds later , he disappeared from view . Brighton Surf Life Saving Club 's 22-year-old head coach Ryan Pook , who was just about to launch his weekly class for young trainee lifesavers by the Sailing Club a few hundred metres away , heard the call . He and fellow trained lifesavers took to the water immediately and were soon at the groyne " duck diving " into the 4C water in their wetsuits , trying to locate Michael . The search expanded , helicopters were scrambled and a growing team scoured the sea for the student for almost three hours . Brighton seafront manager Chris Ingall said nowhere in the country could a response have been faster than it was for Michael that morning . He told @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ many people responding so quickly , we were just gutted no-one could grab him and get his system up and running again . " But you 've got such a small window of time once he sinks under the water . " Two to three minutes is really the maximum window of opportunity . " It 's so difficult in that murky cold water and it gets so deep so quickly . " The search was stood down at 12.15pm . An hour later , Michael 's body was washed up by the peace statue in Hove . MICHAEL Turnbull 's family have paid tribute to a loving , independent young man who " completed " their family and had a " blessing " for creative writing . The 22-year-old English literature student drowned in March after going for a swim in the dangerously cold sea after a long night clubbing and partying with friends . His father Adrian told The Argus the family had seen a whole new side of their son from the countless cards and testimonials they had received . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ friends . " We 've had so many cards from Michael 's friends , people we barely know . What they say is a revelation . " We lost a son but discovered another -- Michael who was the friend that everybody remembered . " A young man who was a very likeable person . We saw him as quite shy but his friends saw a different side of him . " He had lots of adventures that we 've only heard about through people writing their memories of Michael . " Michael Turnbull was born in the United Arab Emirates , where the family lived for Adrian 's work in the finance sector . He spent time as a child in the Middle East and India before the family settled in Salisbury . Six years younger than his sister Sara and 12 years behind his brother Richard , his mother described Michael 's arrival as " unexpected " , adding : " He reinforced us as a family and we forged a closer union . " He completed us . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ city for his studies . He worked in the Royal Pavilion Tavern to earn money which he would enjoy spending at the Lion and Lobster in Sillwood Street with his friends . His mother Mij said : " Michael was a warm and lovely person -- to his parents , his brother and sister and to many people he met . " In fact , it is only since his death that we have realised quite how many friends he had . " We expected 60 or 70 people to come to his funeral but on the day the Unitarian Church in Brighton was completely packed , mostly with young men and woman who had come from far and wide to be part of the celebration of his life . " The fact that so many wanted to be there is a testament to the way Michael affected people . " She said that reading Michael 's prolific journals had given her added insight into her son 's sensitivity . " Reading his more recent journals he told himself that love for others was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Richard Turnbull smiled as he remembered his little brother . He said : " He was extremely handsome and had a way with the ladies . " The problem was it stopped at his looks -- he could n't speak to them really . " Actually he sounded so posh you could n't understand him . " He was quite shy , he was a creative writer . He had a gift for it . A blessing for it really . " Michael had an independent streak -- at the age of 21 he took himself off to Portugal at a moment 's notice -- which may have been a contributing factor in his tragic death . In a poignant moment at his son 's inquest on Tuesday , Adrian Turnbull told the coroner : " I remember raising this point last year . " Someone had drowned on the South Coast -- young lads getting in the sea . " I said to him , ' you would n't do that , would you , Michael ? ' " ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ son as a " someone who got a thrill out of doing something you should n't " , adding : " I 'd never known him to really put himself at risk but he was probably someone who did n't always consider the cost of his own actions . " The last time Adrian and Mij saw their son was in early March , when they came to visit him in Brighton . They had dinner at a Korean restaurant -- a favourite of their son 's -- and , inevitably , his parents took their student son grocery shopping to make sure he had provisions . " Michael was in a good place , " his father said . The family have now created a fund in Michael 's memory , where friends and family can donate to the Brighton Life Saving Surf Club whose members worked so hard to find Michael in the cold water in March . THE psychoactive substances found in Michael Turnbull 's body were so rare the Royal Sussex County Hospital 's laboratory , with a library of 150 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Friends saw the young man take two tablets in the course of several hours of partying at the Concorde 2 seafront nightclub in the early hours of Saturday morning . Clinical scientist Amber Crampton told the Woodvale Crematorium inquest that in addition to alcohol and diazepam , a third substance -- ephylone -- was not identified until further tests at a major research facility confirmed it belonged to a family of artificial compounds used in what were , until last year , legal highs . Senior coroner Veronica Hamilton-Deeley said that " like many young people in Brighton " Michael had taken a small quantity of the illegal substance but warned that users " could never be sure what they were buying " .

WHEN Wanderers last inhabited the Championship one of the most common criticisms aimed at the group was a lack of leadership -- but this time around it looks like being a very different story . May 15 , Craven Cottage , and a visibly narked Darren Pratley fronted up to the local media as captain of a relegated club to lay down a few home truths . Almost everything the midfielder said in the shaded corner of Fulham 's historic home eventually came true . He insisted he would not walk out , demanded the new owners get their act together and appoint a strong manager , and most importantly , that the Whites could bounce straight back with the right attitude . Heart on sleeve , he went on to bite back at those who had pinned Wanderers slow march to the drop on a lack of character in the dressing room . Among them had been previous manager Neil Lennon . The Northern Irishman 's observation that his squad did not have enough of the old-fashioned @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a pre-match rallying call was a continual feature of his reign . Pratley had been one of the few exceptions in his manager 's summation -- but the ' no leaders ' myth perpetuated and by the time Bolton slumped back down into the third tier for the first time in 23 years , the Londoner had taken it very much to heart . Fast forward a few months and Phil Parkinson was quick to appoint Pratley and Jay Spearing as his captain and vice-captain for the new campaign . Spearing had looked on from the side-lines at the end of the Championship run because of a bizarre contractual clause which triggered a payment to his old club Liverpool . Whether he would have made a difference to the end result is now a moot point . Pratley 's broken leg on the opening day of last season left the Liverpudlian out alone as Wanderers ' captain for several months . But in his absence , others stepped up to the plate . Parkinson knew League One was no place for shrinking violets and so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Mark Howard , Mark Beevers and Ben Alnwick were big voices to add to the dressing room who knew what to expect from an unforgiving division . Further down the line Adam Le Fondre , Jem Karacan and Filipe Morais were added to the group , by now in full promotion mode . The belief sweeping around the camp brought the best out of long-serving players like David Wheater , Josh Vela and Gary Madine -- three men who could easily step up to claim the vice-captaincy spot should Spearing leave this summer . Pratley looks almost certain to continue in the captain 's role and did reclaim the armband when he returned to the team so memorably at Fleetwood in March . He lifted the promotion trophy with Spearing but speaking at the end of the season looked keen on continuing in the role . " It 's always hard to be side-lined through injury but especially as captain , " he said of his seven-month lay-off . " It 's difficult because you ca n't be out there doing your job of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ terrific job in my absence but it does n't really matter who wears the armband -- we are all in it together and we will all lead by example when called upon . " This summer Parkinson is sticking with the same plan . Karacan , Taylor and Le Fondre have been added on a permanent basis and ex-Bristol City full-back Mark Little appears to have the bit between his teeth to prove his old club wrong for releasing him . Midfielder Mark Milligan , who captained Australia at the Confederations Cup , and defender Reece Burke -- tipped as a future skipper at West Ham -- are also on the radar . Wanderers will be older and wiser as they look to lay down firm foundations in the Championship once again and wo n't lack leadership , whether in the technical area or on the pitch .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'take the guesswork out of dining' involves an NP object 'the guesswork' which does not function as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations. Additionally, the verb 'take' does not fit the semantic classifications of verbs that typically appear in the V1 slot of the construction.

The reality TV show that sends buff young men and women into a Spanish villa to find love and have badly lit sex is a huge hit , with two million fans -- including Liam Gallagher and Rebecca Adlington . So is it more than just trashy escapism ? ' It 's got to be lighthearted , fun and relatable to the viewers ' : Love Island Photograph : ITV The reality TV show that sends buff young men and women into a Spanish villa to find love and have badly lit sex is a huge hit , with two million fans -- including Liam Gallagher and Rebecca Adlington . So is it more than just trashy escapism ? " Is it wrong , " Michael Vaughan , the former England Test cricket captain , asked his 1 million followers on Sunday , " that I am 42 years old and ca n't stop watching #LoveIsland ? ! ! ! " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his graceful cover drives and leading his nation to a historic Ashes triumph -- tuning in for a show that involves horny twentysomethings frolicking in the sun does , admittedly , seem a little peculiar . Let 's face it , the premise of Love Island is n't especially deep : a dozen or so unfathomably ripped young men and scantily clad young women are sent to a Spanish villa and encouraged to couple up with each other ( they do n't have to form boy/girl relationships although , one brief dalliance aside , Love Island has remained rather quaintly heterosexual throughout its last three series ) . New contestants are thrown into the villa to test the strength of each couple 's love , while the public get to enact their own mischief by voting for which islanders should go on dates with each other . Along the way , there are the odd games contestants have to play -- guessing who said what offensive remark about which fellow islander , for example , or being asked to transfer a frozen cocktail down a line of people using only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ home , while those in couples get to sleep in the same bed while being generally encouraged to -- how to put this poetically ? -- hump each other rotten . And at the end of all this ? The couple voted the " strongest " by viewers are crowned Love Island winners and awarded ? 50,000 . Although this seems slightly beside the point -- which is mainly to laugh along at beautiful people making an absolute hash out of trying to find love . Chris and Olivia compete in one of the games on Love Island . Photograph : ITV/Rex/Shutterstock But is it , as Vaughan asked , wrong to be watching Love Island ? Certainly , he was not alone in posing his question . Indeed , this year 's Love Island -- the third series since it relaunched in 2015 -- is undeniably having a moment . Its nightly episodes on ITV2 have gained 600,000 viewers since last year , taking it to more than 2m and outgunning BBC2 , Channel 4 and Channel 5 in the same slot . Elsewhere , articles are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ subject into long-reads territory with a 2,500-word journey into each individual character 's personality profile ) , while social media is abuzz with hashtagged chatter and an array of unlikely new converts : in the world of sport alone , those tweeting about watching Love Island include the former Olympic swimmer Rebecca Adlington , rugby player James Haskell ( who Instagrammed himself in bed with his team-mates watching the show ) and Gary Lineker ( OK , so Lineker said he did n't like the show , but I imagine he got sucked in at some point ... we all do in the end , Gary ) . Elsewhere , Liam Gallagher surprised Jo Whiley at Glastonbury by telling her he missed Friday night 's festival coverage because of the show . " That 's where it 's at , " he explained . " I 've gone to the dark side and Love Island it is . " ' We do n't want Love Island to be a grubby show ' : two of the islanders under the covers . Photograph : ITV/Rex/Shutterstock All this for a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Stavri , the show 's commissioning editor , believes the fact that viewers get to see real sex -- albeit badly lit sex , covered by duvets or towels or , in one instance , a cupboard door -- has little to do with the show 's appeal . " It 's what makes the headlines , but that 's a shame , because it 's only a tiny part of the bigger story , " she says . " We do n't want Love Island to be a grubby show . Yes , we include some sex scenes , but the truth is , sex is part of relationships and part of every couple 's journey . We 're not interested in the act itself , more why the couple have decided to take their relationship to the next stage and how it might impact the rest of the group . " Perhaps surprisingly , given that the show has previously been comfortable broadcasting a discussion on " fingering " , Stavri talks a lot about striking the right tone . " We do n't want it to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " It 's got to be lighthearted , fun and relatable to the viewers at home . Because no matter how gorgeous those islanders are , they 're as vulnerable as we all are . Some of them are lucky in love , others are unlucky , but they 're all facing the challenges of starting a new relationship . " It 's true that viewers get to immerse themselves in the islanders ' insecurities and vulnerabilities . And unlike other shows , this rarely feels like it 's milked gratuitously for the cameras . The most striking example of this came in series two , when Zara Holland found it impossible to find a partner , despite the fact that she was Miss Great Britain . In her desperation to find love , she embarked on an ill-advised liaison with a guy called Alex Bowen , who gave her the cold shoulder the next morning . It was heartbreaking to watch , and even more heartbreaking when the organisers of Miss Great Britain decided to strip Zara of her title for failing to " uphold the responsibility @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the story was handled sensitively on screen , with the show 's producers clearly having Zara 's back : as a result , she became a fan favourite . " We spent hours and hours and hours of conference calls discussing the situation and how best to deal with it , " says Stavri . " We had a psychologist and Zara 's agent on hand when we told her the news that her title had been stripped . And it was all done off camera ; we do n't want Love Island to be about exploiting people . " TV critic and author Caitlin Moran got into Love Island recently through her teenage daughters . " The problem with reality TV of the past few years is that it has become very vindictive , " she says . " It 's all about torture and pain and Simon Cowell laughing in people 's faces . " Moran says it 's notable that alcohol consumption is kept to a minimum in the villa , which keeps things civil . " It 's more like the boring holiday you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and there were other teenagers of your age and all you could do was get some cans of cider and talk about who you fancied . There 's something pleasingly adolescent about it , and almost innocent -- which sounds strange , given how much time is spent looking at people 's bums . " Moran believes the show is more than just trashy escapism , and that it actually offers valuable life lessons for viewers . " It 's a template for what happens when you go into the outside world and are trying to find a life partner , " she says . " It 's basically an hour of people just talking about their feelings . And that has been incredibly useful to watch with teenage girls , because I can point things out , like , ' Actually , this guy is gaslighting this girl , ' or , ' This is a classic example of negging . ' My girls are almost taking it all down on a notepad . " One criticism that has been put to Love Island , and other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sex is exploitative , making the show 's contestants unwilling victims of what columnist Barbara Ellen terms " sneak porn " . She argues that such shows take advantage of largely working-class contestants and leave them scarred by a permanent record of their sexual exploits made available for anyone to watch . Stavri says the show is " absolutely not " exploitative . " There is a big support network around all of the islanders , meaning there is always someone there for them to speak to before and after the show , " she argues , adding that the show features people from all backgrounds , not just working-class ones : " When casting the show , you always try to make sure that there is someone for everyone -- a mixture of different personalities and demographics , but ultimately people who our viewers can identify with . " But while she might be expected to defend the show against such allegations , what of the former contestants who have actually been in the villa ? How do they feel after their time inside ? Of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be broadly positive . Jessica Shears , who was recently evicted from the current series after a fling with fellow contestant Dom , says there is absolutely no pressure from producers to have sex on screen . " I did n't think I was going to because I 'd be too conscious of being on TV , " she says . " And , obviously , afterwards you do think , ' Oh God , that 's on TV now ! ' But in my situation , it all happened so naturally , that I felt the experience was organic and lovely . " Even Zara Holland says she had a great time in the villa , despite the Miss Great Britain fiasco . Certainly , it worked out for her : she parlayed the controversy into a string of deals -- her own clothing range , a column in Now -- and remains friends with her fellow islanders through a WhatsApp group . She would n't watch her appearances back , but says she is hooked on this season and can relate to the fate of Camilla , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in love so far . " We 've all been there , and I think girls can really relate to her , " she says . " When I watch her it reminds me of my time . You can get lonely in there . But ultimately it was a great opportunity for me . " Relatable : Camilla , the shy , posh girl who has been unlucky in love . Photograph : ITV/REX/Shutterstock Love Island does seem to have hit on a golden formula -- that people ca n't help but reveal their true selves when relationships are the focus -- but it has hardly happened overnight . The show began in 2005 in a celebrity format featuring the likes of Rebecca Loos , Calum Best and Paul Danan , yet despite being a thoroughly entertaining watch , it was canned after two series . Why did they want to bring it back ? Actually , they did n't . The original show has little in common with the rebrand , which is far more involved with using devilish , modern-day reality-TV techniques to toy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the reboot were , in many ways , reality-TV perfection : a blend of early Big Brother 's psychological manipulation , Towie 's " scripted reality " , X Factor 's emotive storytelling and Geordie Shore 's hedonistic voyeurism that nonetheless had its own niche : a focus on the intricacies of modern-day courtship rituals . Despite no major promotion , the show has slow-burned its way first to cult status and now mainstream acceptance , largely through word of mouth . Even after each previous series ended , social media buzz continued thanks to the accessibility of the stars , who are all on Twitter and Instagram , and have largely remained friends with each other . What are the other ingredients ? The scheduling -- Love Island is on for over an hour every night at 9pm -- helps keep the show in the national conversation : viewers feel as if they have to watch in order to have anything to contribute at the work tea point . Then there 's the fact that the show is incredibly reactive -- Stavri says producers never plan more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are held to decide when to let things flow and when to throw in a " grenade " . There 's also the clubby nature of being a Love Island fan -- an essential part of embracing the show is understanding the lingo used by islanders : have you been pied ( ditched ) ? Is someone acting muggy towards you ( treating you like a fool ) ? Do you need to graft or crack on with someone else ( put more effort into your courtship , or chat up another islander ) ? All of these terms make up the modern-day lexicon of love , and so for anyone over the age of 25 , it 's an eye-opening education . Read more And then there 's also the fact that Love Island is really funny , thanks in no small part to Scottish comedian Iain Stirling 's voiceover . His narration does n't attempt to disguise the sneaky tricks producers are playing , instead turning them into an in-joke about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ give Alex and Montana all the privacy they need , " he quipped recently , " so our cameraman has hidden behind some lavender . " " You ca n't help but go a bit meta with it , because people these days realise that producers meddle with a show like this , " he says over the phone from Mallorca , where the show is set . " So , for instance , if there 's a candlelit date between two islanders , I 'll mention how some poor bugger has had to run out and buy a load of candles and set them up just for a two-minute slot . People know how reality TV is made , so we decided to play with that , and the result is something quite unique . " The more we deep dive into the mechanics behind Love Island , the less " Is it wrong that I am watching Love Island ? " seems like a panicked tweet from a former cricketer and the more it emerges as one of the great philosophical questions of our age . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are all starting to watch Love Island ? Series two islanders Alex Bowen and Olivia Buckland are now engaged . Photograph : **26;1080;TOOLONG Perhaps we should leave a former contestant to answer . After all , Olivia Buckland is currently engaged to the man she met inside the villa , Alex Bowen ( yes , the same Alex Bowen ; it 's that kind of show ) . She 's far from the only islander still coupled up with the person she met inside -- the last series has also seen love endure for Scott and Kady and Rikard and Rachel , and there are two Love Island babies , which will make for interesting origin stories if nothing else . Buckland thinks that the show 's track record at matchmaking gives it an added authenticity . " The intensity of the situation creates a real bond between people , " she says . " People can see now that the relationships from last year have lasted , and that the friendships have lasted , too . You 're getting to see normal people fall in love @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on TV very often . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'gets out of warping synths' does not involve a causee NP object that participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes deriving power from an activity, which is not consistent with the construction's properties.

It 's fairly obvious to state that there is a hell of a lot of music being released all the time . I think half the reason we put yearly markers on the music calendar is so that we can make note of what we 've heard , before we get hit by another onslaught of releases . Needless to say , it 's impossible to review everything that comes out , but at least these middle and end of year milestones give us an opportunity to pause and catch our breath , and take some time talking about albums that just got lost in the rush . We do our best to review as many new releases as we can on The 405 , but some of them just slip through our fingers . Below are a selection of albums that we did n't get to review , but we really want people to know about . Some of them are n't exactly unheard of ( Bonobo , Gorillaz @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a missed opportunity to write about just how great they are . But moreover , we hope that you 'll find some releases that had snuck by you , that just might tickle your fancy , and be worth investigating . Here are The 405 's overlooked albums of 2017 so far . ------------ Simon Green 's sixth album as Bonobo is his most successful release to date , breaking the top 5 in the UK album chart . He no longer has the niche underground tag that he emerged with nearly two decades ago ; Migration , therefore , reflects Bonobo 's stature in the electronic music scene . The fizzing anticipation for new music is reflected in the album 's opener ; simple piano notes build into a rich tapestry of samples , clattering percussion , artificial sounds all coming together in the most minimal yet emotive crescendos . It is Introspective yet inviting . Bonobo breaks new ground on this record ; ' Surface ' has a breezy Blood Orange new wave/R&B air , while ' Break Apart ' puts Rhye @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The anxious ' Kerela ' rewards veteran fans who were first drawn to Bonobo for his fidgety , entrancing electronic beats . ' No Reason ' is a shining highlight in Green 's catalogue , spectral , consuming percussion and trap beats and clicks pulse through this nocturnal track . Migration is packed with all-consuming moments that truly move you , as all good dance music should . Fans of atmospheric black metal suffered a heavy blow last year when genre stalwarts Agalloch called it quits , amongst in-fighting and bitter acrimony . Fortunately , a three-piece from East Anglia , who supported Agalloch on tour back in 2013 , took it upon themselves to deliver their magnum opus this year , perhaps to console wounded hearts . Spread over six gargantuan tracks , Winter is 75 minutes of some of the most immense sounding music you 'll hear this side of a late-period Swans record . Naturally , there are beautiful , plaintive , finger-picked passages , as is par for the course for the genre , but these serve merely as brief @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ear-piercing screams , building-crumbling bass , and drums like rolling thunder . It 's an album that has clearly been the product of intensive labour and refinement , but it also sounds organic and assured . Most importantly , it fucking rocks . Individual moments are startling , but the gradual builds and releases of tension are simply breathtaking . In the band 's own words , " Winter is a lengthy and self-indulgent record for which we make no apology . " Like any long journey worth taking , a listen to Winter is exhausting , but , by the end , you 'll be grateful to Fen for the ride . Every band has good and bad days throughout their long or short-lived careers . Being as accomplished in the electropop scene as Goldfrapp are , and now with the release of their seventh full-length album , Silver Eye , Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory were able to achieve once again their deserved recognition , for the first time since 2005 's brilliant Supernature . Picking up a thing or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the London duo was able to tie together a dark eerie imagery with heavy synthesized electronics . They managed to turn this new set of songs into self-reflecting masterpieces , and of course , dancefloor anthems . Since pop and glamourous hooks were always on the menu du jour for Goldfrapp , their act of reinvention without neglecting their legacy was flawlessly executed . The story behind Humanz is well known : Imagine Donald Trump was just elected president--this was back when we thought about this as only a horrifying hypothetical--and everyone was getting together that night for a dance party , reeling from the terrible news . That 's what Damon Albarn told his collaborators is the concept behind Humanz . And there 's certainly a lot of collaborators , to the point where some disappointed fans have claimed that the album sounds less like a Gorillaz album and more like a compilation that occasionally features the band . Although this critique is certainly true , it 's not necessarily fair : if every album should be judged on its own terms , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what it set out to do . At this Trump-inspired apocalyptic dance party , Gorillaz are the DJs and Damon , playing 2D , the band 's lead singer , occasionally pops in as the host of the evening . That 's why the common critique about the lack of 2D misses the point--parties do n't work if the host overshadows everything and Damon 's answer , or better , his hope , in the face of Trump is that the power of collectivity will ultimately triumph in the face of darkness . Damon should be praised for removing himself from the spotlight to better execute his vision rather than be criticised for it . The music matches Damon 's vision perfectly ; relentlessly weaving in and out like any good party . It 's much more electronic based and synthetic than the band 's previous material , fitting the Black Mirror-esque dystopian narrative well . And sure , not every song is an artistic gem , many of them are just decent . But like any good party , the songs are all danceable , fun , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ welcome . So although Humanz is n't the best Gorillaz album , it 's a really fun experience when taken on its own terms . The last few years has seen a rebirth of post-punk , shoegaze and psych rock influenced acts in which bands like Savages , The Horrors or Iceage carrying a heavy load on their shoulders to keep these genres alive . Berlin-based Lea Porcelain take a softer approach to it , picking up ( good ) references and converging them into the search of finding their own sonic identity . With Hymns To The Night , the band established their first milestone while hunting for a solid comfort zone . They are able to mix heavy reverbed guitars with soothing lyrics , easily captivating attention of whoever listens . ' Warsaw Street ' , probably the most love/hated area in the German capital , gets its own song , it being worthy of a strong , eerie melody and nostalgic composition . The strength of this album is laid on the simple songs such as ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . It 's not a concrete case of less is more , but if Julien Bracht and Markus Nikolaus intend to pursue romantic post-punk as their musical and creative direction , they are on the right track and own the right mindset for it . Edinburgh 's Neil Pennycook had retired the Meursault moniker in 2014 , following three well-received albums , to pursue his new project Supermoon . It was to the surprise of many , then , when this new full-length arrived in the early months of 2017 . Where Meursault was once a full band , it is now in practice a solo project , and finds Pennycook able to exert absolute control over the direction of the record . What results is a stately , exquisite group of songs , they are perhaps the best vehicle to date for his ability to reach moments of ecstatic insight with his deadpan acerbic humour . The title track best captures the album 's mood , a widescreen , ocean-sprayed , reflective number that struggles against its narrator 's increasing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to Gremlin ' memorably concludes that " the last thing the world needs now is another song about the fucking sea , " a statement that he has already undermined before he has sung it . The album concludes on its most hopeful note , the outward-looking ' A Walk In The Park ' . This is a record to decompress to , potentially as therapeutic to you as it appears to have been to its creator . Pile 's Rick Maguire , secretly one of the East Coast 's finest songwriters , always seemed too hopeless to engage in a strong romantic relationship , much less gorgeously sing , cry , wail , and scream his way through a perfect description of a breakup as he does on A Hairshirt of Purpose . Not that Pile 's spastic batch of aggressive post-hardcore is suddenly absent , it 's just separated by Maguire 's most personal and drudging set of stories to date , which is saying something given 2015 's excellent You 're Better Than This . Take a listen to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Wheel ' , and you 'll see how Pile pull off the best combination of hard and soft since Modest Mouse 's The Moon and Antarctica : " So play in traffic/ have a kid/ may every good deed be in self-interest . " Maguire 's usual self-deprecation has been replaced with a liberating sense of acceptance . If the world has already thrown this much garbage your way , why not embrace it and attempt to turn it into self-worth ? In the ' 90s , efforts to legitimise hip-hop as an art form focused on the genre 's resemblance to poetry . These arguments implied that a rapper 's lyrics were the core of his artistry . This latest generation of rappers , led by playful stylists like Young Thug , Kodak Black , and Lil Yachty , has pushed against this idea , largely disinterested in traditional notions of lyricism . Instead , they have claimed hip-hop as a musical practice ; it is the sounds which matter , first and foremost . Inspired by Lil B and Gucci Mane @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ contradictions between the genre 's typically boastful and aggressive content ; and sly , sometimes oblique deliveries . With his self-titled , debut mixtape , Playboi Carti became one of the great inheritors of this tradition . His style is a little mysterious and elusive ; he omits syllables like a child taught to read from books blurred by water damage and cut with perforated scissors . The beats borrow from the timbres of old-school video games and early electronic music--the digital as an aesthetic , foregrounded artifice . Though the mixtape passed through many delays , the work does n't show . Sometimes , it takes practice to make effort sound this easy . The enchanting Pumarosa released one of the year 's most intriguing debut records back in May through Fiction . A complex tapestry of surreal narratives and enthralling instrumental all cocooned in evocative metaphor of nature , creatures and witchcraft . It is for want of a better word , spellbinding . The lyrical intricacy of ' Dragonfly ' , the hypnotic , ceremonial percussion of ' The Witch @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all work to enthrall its listener , a sweet whisper inviting you into the witch 's world . The band 's elongated often claustrophobic instrumentals mean most tracks span over five minutes in length , making this album a tricky first listen . After time invested you begin to comprehend what the band has carefully crafted over the course of ten tracks . This is an album to completely lose oneself in as they mix the prog-rock of Radiohead 's OK Computer with the whimsy of Bat For Lashes Fur & Gold . The Witch has theatre , grandeur , craft , style and above all , a curiosity that means one play is never enough . Sprawling , catastrophic , and impressively fluid , Aussie quintet Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever 's second EP The French Press ( and first on Sub Pop ) is a crown jewel of modern college rock . Bringing about an approach that got lost in the mix of the Internet and streaming services , The French Press channels The Clean , The Lemonheads , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ too much , all by creating a sound that 's as authentic as it is nostalgic . In addition to the band 's impeccable chemistry , the three-way vocals seem to be what make The French Press such a convincing record . Oozing talent from left and right , Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever are a band that hold an incredibly well-defined sound , all held together by their versatile song writing , stemming from their average encounters - heading to your girl 's place , blazing up , anything . Some say Sevdaliza is the Beth Gibbons of modern times . When you hear ' Amandine Insensible ' you ca n't really miss the subtlety of Portishead 's titanic song ' Glory Box ' . As the band is an undeniable influence on the singer 's music , alongside Bjork and modern hip hop , Sevdaliza is playing a very important part in bringing back an exciting new wave of trip hop and R&B . With ISON , she is now able to stand alone in greatness next to artists like FKA Twigs or Kelela @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ album is an outstanding piece of art . When it comes to the combination of a haunting voice , lyrics that speak to you profoundly and calculated production , it feels that she articulated it so carefully , almost to a point of obsession . Remaining minimal with her downtempo beats and spoken word , through ISON Sevdaliza narrates tales of vulnerability , heartbreak but also empowerment and new beginnings . Berlin producer Shed 's ( n ? e Ren ? Pawlowtiz ) fourth album is an invigorating techno odyssey , mixing harmonic and rhythmic textures seamlessly while never feeling restrained by rules about how electronic music is supposed to be . Shed 's breakbeats and spacious melodies are n't unlike those of Amon Tobin and Aphex Twin , but he owns his sense of arrangement and pacing . Just listen to ' Black Heart ' and consider how much power he gets out of warping synths to the point that he seems to be frying them on a hot sidewalk while pulsating drums are disruptive without being distracting . Electronic music should @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ right choices when doing so . With the wave of praise it has received , chances are you have n't missed SZA 's CTRL , but that does n't mean you should forgive us for failing to shout it out earlier . For those of us meandering onward towards thirty , still not quite ready to let go of our time as the taste making youth , the album serves as something of an anthem . For how much further along we thought we 'd be , for how much more sure things should have been by now , there is CTRL . An ode to insecurities and misplaced ego alike , there is no album in recent memory more attuned to what a whole lot of people are feeling in 2017 . God help us , twenty somethings . Any indie band releasing a debut album is likely to wear their influences on their sleeves , and Thunder Dreamer certainly do that throughout their delightful and transportative debut Capture . There 's reflections of Real Estate in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' St. Malo ' picks up the spirit of The War On Drugs , while ' The Bridge ' nods towards mid-90s favourites like The Silver Jews . But it 's all done with an undefinable air of confidence that makes these sounds seem urgent and entirely engrossing , so much so that the obvious comparisons take a back seat to what Thunder Dreamer have accomplished . There 's a tumultuous wind around a lot of the productions as if the band are constantly on their toes and never able to get to the relaxing sun-drenched beaches that their vocals and sparkling melodies seem to be aiming for . Instead , they 're stuck trundling over rocky terrain , turning over thoughts in their heads and just keeping going . When it comes to the six-minute epic ' Living Like The Rest ' , they kick up such a storm that you can see nothing but sense the hulking mass of emotion and inspiration being carried by the hectically arranged musicianship . Capture is the kind of record that evokes several conflicting moods at once , but makes you live @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for a debut album . Tonstartssbandht , two brothers from Orlando , Florida , have improvised and jammed their way into one of the best records of the year . Sorcerer is a mere three songs , but clocks in over thirty minutes of exploratory music from The Grateful Dead to early Animal Collective . Though it 's clear the songs were recorded in single takes , it only ends up adding to the depth and audacity these dudes have . To boot , the synchronization of drums and guitar is always spotless . Even the lyrics sound inspired and audacious . Not everyone can sing lines like " I climb the sea crane at Yalta/ I swam the black sea at midnight , " and have them sound like anything other than drivel . The band manage to string you along in the welcoming chords of ' Breathe ' until you 're ready to accept just about any level of psychedelic mind-bending . Sorcerer is the ace up Mexican Summer 's 2017 sleeve |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it involves the phrase 'opting out of sharing my data', which is a different construction where 'opting out of' is followed by a gerund phrase. This does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction as it lacks the necessary NP object and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

My name is Dave and I have now been involved with five TV productions at various levels . I have auditioned for The Weakest Link , been part of a pilot that never made it to air , and featured as a contestant on Total Wipeout , Ninja Warrior UK and Robot Wars . I suffer from low self esteem and rollercoaster depression and I have found no finer therapy for it than the character-validating world of television production . My quest today is to try and coax the inner star out of you all , no matter how out of place you may feel . I 'm not one to blow my own trumpet , far from it , but I have never failed to gain at least an audition for every show I 've ever applied for , so I must be doing something right ! I 'd like to share with you a few tips and tricks that I 've picked up along the way and to try and convince you to have a go if you want to . I can tell you there is no better feeling than the glow of personal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ audition or to be part of a show you love . Yes , you may also feel there has obviously been some kind of mistake , but it is hard to shake the fact that , out of the hundreds or thousands of people who fill out an application form , they have chosen you . Fancy a go ? Then let 's do this ! This is the most common question I have been asked about any of my appearances and it has lead me to realise that everybody seems to share a view that television is some magic land that only a few privileged people get to have access to . This is complete bunk . If the show you have in mind features members of the public as contestants or ' stars ' then there is no reason that you can not apply . The BBC and ITV have dedicated websites where they list every show they are currently casting and a quick search online will help you find the application form for any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on when it 'll be available next . Most shows follow exactly the same process for casting -- form , audition , show . Sometimes they extend steps ( further auditions ) or miss them out completely but that is your basic model . If you want to get on a show then it 's easy to find out how . This is one I absolutely stand by . When I have applied for shows in the past I have met many other applicants along the way . The main topic of conversation at auditions is always finding out what everyone else put on their form that helped them reach this point . I have met many an applicant who told me that they obsessed for days over whether their form was ready to submit or not . I do not recommend this . Application forms are usually full of very open-ended statements such as " tell us something interesting about yourself " or " tell us five things your friends would say about you " . Think @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( casting teams like detail ! ) and then move on . The key thing to remember is that there is no correct answer . The team at the other end are looking for something on your form that makes you stand out from the hundreds of others they read . They are rarely looking for specifics . Often the best contestants for , say , gameshows are the ones that do n't quite seem to fit the template of the kind of person who usually appears on the show . Your application form is not an exam and it will likely be glossed over rather hurriedly at the other end anyway ! It is your ticket to audition , nothing more . Write enough to convince them that you are someone they might like to meet in person , give them something they might not have seen before , and then submit it and forget about it . If you get an invitation to an audition then your form succeeded , however long you spent on it . Once you get to audition it is a level playing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ You simply have to back it up . Make it good , make it interesting , move on . The first show I applied for was daytime quiz staple The Weakest Link during my first year at university . I was invited to an audition in York and I treated the whole thing as a bit of a lark . I wore jogging bottoms and a scrappy t-shirt that gave me the air of someone who had just rolled out of bed because , well , I had . The audition consisted of a multiple choice general knowledge test ( if you choose a quiz never worry about these too much either , they want someone with a good field of knowledge but not necessarily the ones that know everything ! ) followed by a mock-up of the show where we all had to stand behind pretend podiums in a half-moon shape and answer questions put to us by a mean producer standing in for Anne Robinson . I messed about an awful lot , even pretending to be the voice-over man @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ heard back from the show . Fast forward a couple of years and I was at an audition for the intensely silly extreme obstacle course game show Total Wipeout . My mucking about served much greater purpose here but I was gobsmacked to hear how many of my fellow auditionees had ' never seen the show before ' ! Please do not do this to yourselves , everybody ! There are a few personalities that can cope with being asked to do anything on TV but I am guessing you may not be one of them . Imagine being asked to fly out to Argentina and being faced with that obstacle course without knowing what you 're in for ! No thank you . Anyway , the moral here is that , if you know your show , you can work out how to behave at the audition . The Weakest Link was always fun but they did n't want a total buffoon . A good knowledge of the show impresses producers too . Mention specific parts of the show that you ca n't wait to do , especially @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it ! The name of the game at audition is to stand out for the right reasons . There are no two ways about it , I 'm afraid -- if you really want to get on the show you 're going to have to go for it . Do n't worry , it 's easier than it sounds . Most TV shows will pay your expenses if you make it to filming but you have to find your own way to your audition . This is part of the test ! If you quibble about times or locations or costs then , well , they 'll choose someone else . Auditions take place in a room full of people ; usually a small team who work for the show and a larger pool of applicants . For The Weakest Link , it was about twenty people . For my series of Total Wipeout , it was fifty other men . There are two things to take into account here if you are socially anxious . The first is that , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ any of these people again is if you make it onto the show . So channel every inch of self-confidence you can muster and just go for it . If you do something cataclysmically awful that makes you cringe every time you recall it for years to come , well so what ? No-one you know saw it , you never have to tell anyone about it and everyone who did see it will be long gone by then . There was a point during the Total Wipeout auditions where we were all jogging in a circle and one of the team shouted out " Can anyone do an Arnold Schwarzenegger impression ? " at random . After a pause where it seemed no-one was going to answer , I mustered a loud but terrible " GET TO DE CHOPPAH ! " to which the guy pointed at me and shouted " YES ! GET TO DE CHOPPAH ! DO IT NOW ! " . This was hardly my finest hour as a human being but it got me noticed over all the guys who stood back . You 'd @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nervous to join in until someone else has had their say . Do not be one of them . Take the lead , it 's your opportunity . The second thing to remember is it does not matter how many people apply for the show , the only ones you are competing against are in the room with you . No production team will pick their entire contestant crop from a single audition and it is likely that someone you bump in to will make it onto the show . Break down your task -- you are not trying to win one of two hundred slots in ten thousand ( which were roughly the numbers for my series of Total Wipeout ) , you are trying to be the most noticeable applicant out of the fifty people at your audition . You do n't have to be the loudest or most alpha or fittest or most knowledgeable or best looking of the group . Your task is simply to stand out and that is a much easier goal to shoot for . And , if you spend a week @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ come out , then well done you for putting every effort you had into it ! Whether you get the magic call or not , that 's definitely something to be proud of . Never sit at home and think you 're just not the kind of person that ' they ' will pick to be on a TV show because that very doubt can make you much more appealing to a casting crew .

Signs of turbulence ahead are flashing ever larger on the radar for Heathrow 's plans for a third runway . A weakened Prime Minister , with a divided and ill-disciplined party , faces battles on three fronts : in Parliament , in the courts and with threatened protests against what will be one of the most environmentally controversial projects for decades . It is easy to see how expansion of the airport could be hit by more delays , and possibly brought to a grinding halt , as the Government becomes engulfed by an all-consuming Brexit maelstrom . But Sir Howard Davies , whose landmark report two years ago recommended another Heathrow runway , is optimistic -- certainly far more optimistic than he was . The 66-year-old , now chairman of the Royal Bank of Scotland , put the likelihood that he will see it built in his lifetime at seven out of 10 despite the " political uncertainty " hanging so heavily over Theresa May 's administration . Such odds might not seem great for investors in the ? 16 billion project , or for taxpayers facing a multi-billion-pound bill to improve public @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ expansion ( Heathrow Airport ) However , Sir Howard said : " I was at three out of 10 while Cameron was PM . I 'm much more optimistic than I was when I did the report because this Prime Minister was bold and said she was in favour and the Secretary of State for Transport said he was in favour , which we did not have before the election . " When in Downing Street , David Cameron was hamstrung in committing to Heathrow expansion by his pre-2010 election " no ifs , no buts " promise that a third runway would not get the go-ahead . Town hall opponents of expansion are likely to use this in their High Court case to try to block it , arguing that to allow another runway now would breach people 's legitimate expectation that it would not be built . However , experts on both sides of the third runway row believe the largest obstacle is toxic air , with EU limits on nitrogen dioxide widely breached across London , including around Heathrow . Sir Howard said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the air quality standards can be met because those are quite hard-edged standards in European legislation . " He does not believe ministers will seek to water down the EU limits when they are incorporated into UK legislation through the Great Repeal Bill , though , nor does the Airports Commission which he chaired think the challenges are insurmountable for expansion by the mid-2020s : " With the changing nature of aircraft between now and the launch of the third runway and also with some fairly aggressive measures on congestion charging around the airport , we believe you can meet those air quality standards . " London already has the " C-charge " to tackle central London congeschris tion , the " D-charge " extra levy for diesel cars to park in Westminster , and Mayor Sadiq Khan is introducing the ? 10-a-day " T-charge " for the most polluting vehicles to drive into central London . Now an " H-charge " looks set to be introduced for millions of holidaymakers , businessmen and other travellers who drive to Heathrow in polluting cars rather than take public @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ When we looked at this , congestion charging to the airport was something that people regarded as pretty extreme , " said Sir Howard , a former London School of Economics director . " But I think now the congestion charge is hardly controversial in London any more . " The idea that you should have to pay , you know , 10 quid or 15 quid if you really want to drive to the airport and maybe you pay more if you are in a diesel car , I think that is a perfectly politically acceptable thing . Indeed I think it would be popular . " Public awareness about toxic air has increased significantly in the past few years , with the number of diesel cars bought in London dropping dramatically in recent months . " People are now seeing this is a London-wide problem and that really something serious has got to be done on diesel buses and cars in London , " adds Sir Howard . " I think that is going to make it easier for a third runway to get through . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Commission 's 344-page report is the test it adopted on whether air pollution rules would be breached . Legal experts have derided the argument that a third runway would only flout these limits if it delayed compliance across London -- which would not happen if there was a worse pollution blackspot in the capital . Transport Secretary Chris Grayling ( AFP/Getty Images ) Noticeably , Transport Secretary Chris Grayling has repeatedly refused to say whether he accepts the Commission 's test as valid , though he has pledged a new runway could only operate within air pollution limits . The Commission also proposed a six-and-a-half hour night flight ban between 11.30pm and 6am , compared with some 16 landings currently permitted between 4.30am and 6am . The Government accepted the length of the proposed ban but Heathrow is pushing for it to apply between 11pm and 5.30am . " It would be better if they did not land before six , " said Sir Howard , who stressed that these early morning flights have a particular impact @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " I can see that there is a bit of an issue with some of the Asian flights which would probably have to leave rather late from other airports . " I can understand the arguments but honestly , personally , I still feel the solution we proposed was the best one and I think Heathrow have come quite a long way towards it but that 's a political judgment as to how far you should force them . " Further compensation measures , such as more noise insulation for homes , could be offered to offset flights before 6am . Despite some high-profile opponents of a third runway -- including Cabinet ministers Boris Johnson and Justine Greening , Zac Goldsmith , the Mayor , and Twickenham MP Sir Vince Cable -- a majority of Tory and Labour MPs are understood to support it , as well as the SNP and DUP . " There should be a parliamentary vote no later than May of next year , if the project is to be kept on track , " says Lord Adonis , chairman of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ runway is extremely strong . Heathrow is full . " It 's Britain 's main hub airport and gateway to the world and after Brexit we should be doing nothing to impede trade or travel . " Lord Adonis , the former Labour transport secretary , who saw his party 's plans for a third runway sunk before the 2010 election , also backs tough measures on air pollution . " I would support a cordon charge around Heathrow to ensure the number of vehicles going to and from the airport is reduced even after the new runway is built , " he says . Within days , Heathrow is likely to have overcome a first hurdle facing its expansion plans , with the election of an MP to chair the Commons transport select committee . At least four of the candidates -- Clive Efford , Lilian Greenwood , Gavin Shuker and Bridget Phillipson -- are broadly supportive or open-minded about Heathrow expansion . The committee is set to carry out an inquiry into the draft Airports National Policy Statement in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ NPS version , possibly late this year or early next year , and a consent order will be put to Parliament for MPs to approve . Noise maps will be published , but no detailed flight paths , which will inevitably fuel anger among locals , and some MPs , that airport bosses are not being upfront about the noise blight . Mr Grayling , though , said that with steeper landing flight paths , legally enforceable caps on noise , and ? 700 million for noise insulation , the impact on local communities can be mitigated . Backing an independent commission for civil aviation noise , he said : " When MPs come to vote on our Heathrow plans they will have noise maps to inform their decision -- and the noise champion I am establishing will be able to ensure community voices are heard . " However , Ray Puddifoot , Tory leader of Hillingdon council , believes the third runway has already been relegated to the " second division as far as the parliamentary timetable is concerned " . Lawyers for the legal action @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Richmond councils are said to be very confident of defeating the runway plans . " I can say without a shadow of a doubt that this scheme will be consigned to the dustbin , " predicted Mr Puddifoot . A Heathrow insider also said he expected the vote on the NPS to be pushed " well into " 2018 . Ministers might even be forced to carry out a fresh consultation given the disarray over the Government 's air quality plan and passenger number forecasts . Foreign Secretary Mr Johnson , Education Secretary Ms Greening , who is MP for Putney , and international trade minister Greg Hands , MP for Chelsea and Fulham , are expected to be allowed to vote against the Government on the third runway . The issue could cost the Tories the seat of Richmond Park , won back by Zac Goldsmith last month by 45 votes , and Putney , where Ms Greening 's majority is 1,554 . Labour is also split over airport expansion and the party 's manifesto includes conditions for expansion including that noise issues be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ change obligations should be met . John Stewart , chairman of anti- Heathrow expansion group Hacan , said : " Although it does look as if we are still heading in the direction of a third runway , the election has brought renewed uncertainty . " In particular , if a newly self-confident Jeremy Corbyn was to persuade his party to vote against a third runway , Theresa May could have difficulty getting it through Parliament . " Shadow chancellor John McDonnell , Hayes and Harlington MP and an opponent of expansion , could seek to turn the vote into one which could topple Mrs May to rally Labour MPs against a third runway . If Mrs May crashes out of Downing Street , the threat to the third runway will soar if Mr Corbyn or Mr Johnson gain the keys to No 10 . But if Mr McDonnell tried to enforce a three-line whip on Heathrow he " would get slaughtered " , said one northern MP . Peter Kavanagh , London and Eastern regional secretary for the Unite union , said : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and fast forward final decision-making and construction of the project . " After the parliamentary vote , there will be a six-week window for any judicial review of the NPS . The town halls ' lawyers are set to take legal action on air quality and potentially other issues which could include whether the NPS consultation was biased . Leaflets were sent out to up to three million people who could be affected by Heathrow expansion , highlighting that a third runway was expected to deliver up to ? 61 billion of economic benefits , tens of thousands of additional local jobs , ? 2.6 billion in compensation for local communities , six new domestic flight routes , and create 5,000 new apprenticeships . They did not mention the risks of more air pollution or that tens of thousands of people would get less respite from noise . A separate legal challenge could also be launched on climate change grounds . If the NPS gets parliamentary backing , Heathrow can then submit its planning application for a third runway . A public examination would be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it could not go over issues decided in the NPS such as the need for another runway . Crucially , the final decision on planning consent rests with the Transport Secretary . But further legal challenges could then be launched . Ravi Govindia , Tory leader of Wandsworth council , said : " The third runway will fail a basic legal test on air pollution and the consultation process has been riddled with flaws , omissions and clear examples of bias . " Mr Khan also believes the Government 's position on noise and pollution blight from 260,000 more flights a year from Heathrow has been weakened . But former Labour MP Parmjit Dhanda , the director of the Back Heathrow group , who grew up in Hayes , said that the new runway would create thousands of apprenticeships and " offer us the chance to vanquish youth unemployment in the locality . " He added : " This is a chance in a lifetime , we must take it . " |

The number of children being referred to gender identity clinics has quadrupled in the past five years , figures show . Experts have warned that the huge spike is , in part , due to the promotion of transgender issues in schools which they say has encouraged to question their identity , and " sowed confusion " in their minds . Figures from the Gender Identity Development Service ( GIDS ) , which is the NHS 's only facility for transgender children based at the Tavistock Centre in north London , show that 84 children aged between 3 and 7 were referred last year , compared to 20 in 2012/13 . The number of children referred to the service under the age of ten had also seen a four-fold increase , from 36 in 2012/13 to 165 last year . Last year there were a total of 2,016 referrals for youngsters aged between three and 18 , more than six times more than the 314 referrals five years previously . Chris McGovern , a former advisor to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an industry , people are making a career out of encouraging children to question gender at an age when they need to be left to be children . When teachers raise these issues children can become confused or unhappy and traumatised by it . " Mr McGovern , who is chair of Campaign for Real Education , added : " In a sense we are imposing adult concerns on children . Schools feel under huge pressures to comply with a politically correct agenda . " Dr Joanna Williams , a university lecturer and author of the book Women vs Feminism , has said that schools are " sowing confusion " in children 's minds by over-promoting transgender issues . She said that feminists were attempting to reshape school policies on gender , adding that children were being forced to " unlearn " the difference between boys and girls . It can never be negative if schools are being thoughtful and offering opportunities to discuss topical issuesDr Polly Carmichael " Research suggests that just one per cent of the population experience gender issues . Although the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rapidly , " she told the Telegraph Festival of Education last month . " Children - encouraged by their experiences at school - are beginning to question their gender identity at ever younger ages . " In doing more than just supporting transgender children , and instead sowing confusion about gender identity , schools do neither boys nor girls any favours . " Dr Williams added that the growing number of young children being referred for gender counselling stemmed from new policies being adopted by schools , adding that schools were now " encouraging even the youngest children to question whether they are really a boy or a girl . " Dr Polly Carmichael , a leading NHS psychologist and director of the GIDS , defended the teaching of transgender issues in schools . She told The Sunday Telegraph : " It is good that schools are putting it on the agenda . It can never be negative if schools are being thoughtful and offering opportunities to discuss topical issues . " She added that gender is a complex subject , and children should @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ age appropriate " manner . Children can only be referred to GIDS by their GP or by the child and adolescent mental health service . After six months of psycho-social assessment by a clinician , an action plan would be drawn up , which could be continuing with counselling , or it could be a physical intervention . Children who have started puberty , from around the age of 12 , can be referred on to an endocrinology clinic which can prescribe a course of hormone blockers , which postpones puberty . Children aged 16 and over could be given cross-sex hormones , which would enable them to take on the physical characteristics of the opposite sex . More than double the number of teenage girls compared to boys are referred to the GIDS , while in the younger age groups it is more common for boys to be referred . |

As hip-hop approaches middle age , it is becoming more attractive to Hollywood , which is making a miniature industry out of telling its stories . Last month saw the release of All Eyez On Me , a thin retelling of Tupac Shakur 's life and death , and this weekend in the US , HBO premiered The Defiant Ones , a look at the financially fruitful relationship between the record producers Dr Dre and Jimmy Iovine . These efforts , along with 2015 's Straight Outta Compton , seek to reaffirm the glory days of their subjects rather than examine the real people behind the myths . Read more The loud , predominantly black voice of hip-hop that shocked the American mainstream in the 70s and 80s is muted in these attempts at canonical retelling . These big-screen and documentary projects , often pushed by their lead characters -- Dr Dre and Ice Cube both produced Straight Outta Compton -- act less as artistic statements than as ways to preserve those characters ' legacies . These are n't films where tough questions can be asked @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ can compete with their oversized legends . Jada Pinkett Smith , who was portrayed by Kat Graham in All Eyez On Me , sent a series of tweets that pointed out a number of factual inaccuracies about the way her relationship with Tupac was depicted in the film . Dispute over the historical record is bound to occur -- director John Singleton also expressed misgivings about the film and left the project because of them -- but the misrepresentation of women in these hip-hop films is a shameful through-line . The omission of Dr Dre 's assault on the hip-hop journalist Dee Barnes from Straight Outta Compton is possibly the most egregious example . Before the release of the movie , Barnes wrote about it for Gawker , explaining that even if she did n't want to see her abuse captured on film , the decision to skip over that moment left her " a casualty of Straight Outta Compton 's revisionist history " . The financial success of these films showed a demand for these stories , but that is undercut by the stories that are that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reminded me of the Rolling Stones -- they had that whole energy that the Stones had in the late 60s and early 70s , and I related to it like that , " said Iovine while promoting The Defiant Ones . The legacy these films strive to preserve is n't of the struggle of black kids in the hoods that America ignored ; they promote the machinery that gave these artists platforms to speak to millions of people and transform into demigods . Read more Outside of Hollywood , within hip-hop 's own community , there is no need for the deification of true icons . Last month , when Prodigy of the duo Mobb Deep died , there was a outpouring from all walks of the hip-hop world .

" The best thing hip-hop story retellings can do is give context , " says Julian Kimble , who has written about rap culture for Complex and the Washington Post . " People like to look at things in retrospect and we forget what it was like in the moment if you were n't there to see it . " Over time , legacies shift , but people should question the historical record when related by people who profited at hip-hop 's beginning and continue to reap the rewards 20 years later . That self-serving work undermines the truth of their lives and the lives of those who are n't given the same platform .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'out of finding a need that hadn't yet been identified' does not involve a causee NP object participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the origin or basis of the business models, which is not the intended meaning of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Join us on 15 September at the Brewery to celebrate the very best in insurance broking . For 24 years the awards have been recognising success across the broker market . Book your table now to make sur ? ? ? Entrepreneurial spirit : Action 365 and Pukka founder Sam White tells Si ? n Barton why a focus on people , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ helped her businesses grow and succeed As the founder of claims firm Action 365 Sam White has been a familiar face in the insurance world for a number of years . She is known for her parties , particularly the recent ones she has thrown at the Biba Manchester conference . This year guests were decked out with flower head garlands , sombreros and enjoyed cocktails galore all topped off with a performance from X Factor winner Louisa Johnson . The gathering this May was to celebrate her newest offering , the managing general agent ( MGA ) Pukka Insure . Alongside that sense of fun White is also regarded as a true entrepreneur in the sector . She started up her first business Chameleon Telesales at 24 . " That was to sell other people 's products for them , " she explains . Chameleon Telesales soon evolved into a firm focused on claims as White found an increasing number of contracts coming her way . To service them she rebuilt Chameleon from the ground up . " It was to do the personal injury @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Adding with a laugh : " The sector would consider it the dark side . " The impetus for striking out on her own is also clear : " I wanted freedom and I wanted to work for myself . " She continues : " I like building stuff and I enjoy the creativity of business in finding solutions to problems -- sometimes problems you did n't know existed . " I love business models like Uber where they create a whole market out of finding a need that had n't yet been identified . I find that really exciting and I love working with people and seeing the joy they get bringing something to fruition . " White 's entrepreneurial nature means she has a number of businesses under her belt . Chameleon evolved into Action 365 , which posted turnover of ? 9.5m in 2015 . There is also her newest business , the van specialist Pukka , which launched in 2016 with a capacity of ? 30m . She has also attempted a number of ventures which she freely @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , respect and value have had issues in a corporate environment . There are significant barriers in this industry for women Sam White Chiefly , she tried to break into the American market . " I tried to start up a couple of businesses , " she recounts . " It was not a great success but it was a great adventure . " I wanted to set up an accident management company so I put together a team and went to insurance conventions and met some incredible people . But the product was too different to what they were used to . We managed to sign up a couple of hundred brokers who were interested but they could n't quite get their heads around it . " White also wanted to launch a price comparison website in the US in 2013 . " There were regulatory changes to the claims market in the UK so I had to shelve the American plans to come back to the UK to sort them out , " she notes . These experiences have not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And she is already developing her MGA Pukka Insure , which is targeting ? 500m of GWP in five years , in Australia using many of the lessons she learned in the USA . " We are having success in Australia , " she adds , " but if I go back to the States I would go back with an insurance proposition . I would definitely be interested in going back . " Her attitude is that " every experience you have takes you closer to where you are meant to end up " . One of the toughest obstacles she faced was that no one wanted to lend her any money when Pukka was being launched . Looking even further back , taking the step from working for herself to employing staff was also a leap into the unknown . " Making appointments and paying wages was the biggest challenge . " She expands : " With Pukka it was raising enough money to get the structure in place before we went live . " She has previously discussed how she needed to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ secure financial investment for Pukka . " I used to be adamant that being a woman in this sector was a good thing because I was where I wanted to be . But I did n't take into account that I am an entrepreneur and not part of an infrastructure , so they ca n't stop me . " Other women I know , respect and value have had issues in a corporate environment . There are significant barriers in this industry for women . " According to White the only way to overcome these obstacles is " tenacity , good faith " and realising that " people are your greatest asset " . Why did you launch Pukka as an MGA and not a broker or insurer ? " It ticked all the boxes for the control we would have over sales , distribution , claims and underwriting process . And , from a financial perspective , it was n't as big a step as launching a full insurer from day one . " We found the right partners @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that 's Gefion Insurance . " With a second business you have more at play because there are more people who depend on it being a success . The right systems have to be in place in order to be able to go live . " The broker reaction to Pukka has been really positive . Brokers want alternatives to traditional corporate businesses . They want people who are interested in what they are doing and that they can form partnerships with . They are small business owners and have to fight from the ground up to get what they need . That inspires a creative mindset . " To reflect this she has worked to create an inclusive workforce . " My team go above and beyond . I like to think they do that because they know I am supportive of them . " She develops the point : " It 's about looking for the opportunity and not the problem . That 's what I look for in the people I hire . " White now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ working for Action 365 and , although dyslexia makes it hard for her to remember names , she asserts that she knows everyone by face and can usually recall " a random personal detail or be friends on Facebook " . " It sounds cheesy but I genuinely do care about them . " As evidenced by her social media links with employees White does n't believe in separating business and pleasure . " You ca n't isolate the person from their work . It is unhealthy to do so . In the machoism of the business world I revere an emotional response and it has a big part to play . " Therefore , it was a particularly bitter pill to swallow when a former staff member stole ? 500,000 from Action 365 . Charlotte Darwen was jailed for three years for the crime in 2014 . " It was an incredibly painful experience , " White admits . " It was not so much the money or the outcomes , it was more the effect it had on her team . Her superior @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ White looked at the issue as a point on a steep learning curve . " We learned that we clearly needed to tighten up our systems that we trusted . But the main experience was that sometimes bad things happen and you have to pull together as a team . " I would not wish it to change how I or anyone in the business sees people . Anyone can get hit by isolated incidents . You ca n't stop bad shit happening but you can manage it . " Sam White Her own philosophy and business acumen was enriched by taking some time out to go travelling . " I learned my perspective was dependent on how I was brought up , my gender , my place of birth . Being able to see that was incredibly valuable @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ diversify her companies in the UK and globally . She continues : " I am looking forward to the industry creating new types of products for new types of consumers . " I would like us to be able to engage more closely with communities . The original concept of insurance was that lots of people put in to help one person when things go wrong . I think we have probably lost sight of that . I 'd like to see products go back to reflect that . " But the recurring theme is of facing challenges with energy and spirit . Overall White sees a bright future for insurance and is sure obstacles can be overcome . " You will always find a way to make it work , " she sums up . White makes no secret that she is n't bowled over with the technology platforms available to the insurance sector . " I am largely unimpressed , " she states . " It 's not flexible enough and it is so implanted now that you ca n't navigate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that have fallen back because the technology platforms are too restrictive . " In terms of Pukka she explains that her operations team selected Transactor as " they did a report of the market and decided it was the best solution " . As all brokers know , technology is expensive , but White admits : " If I had a limitless budget I would have preferred to develop our own technology . " White is keen to use technology to improve the way she delivers her products and services to the customer . At the moment the business is developing its own virtual underwriting tech solution entitled Sosotris . " The computer will make the decision based on data . We 're hoping to use it within the Pukka business . " The technology is built but not live . We 're running it as a dummy to see how it performs versus the traditional approach . Whether we implement it depends on the performance of the pilot . We will probably launch it as a product on a managed basis . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sector , which White jokes is appropriate for the insurance sector . " I think it can really help us , " she adds . " It means we do not have to focus on niche lines and should be able to write anything . " |

Arsene Wenger is obstinately digging in over Alexis Sanchez 's future , leading many close to the player and manager to believe that the Chilean could yet stay at Arsenal next season . While the 28-year-old is now widely believed to desire a move to Manchester City - and a reunion with former Barcelona boss Pep Guardiola - above all else , and is refusing to sign a new contract at the Emirates as his current deal runs out next year , there is still no willingness on the part of Wenger to let him go to a rival . It had been felt that a move to Bayern Munich could be on , as they had been making progress in June over a prospective transfer that would at least have been more palatable to the Arsenal boss , but the German champions have ultimately baulked at the high price demanded by Wenger . How could Arsenal line up next season ? Getty Getty Images Struggled for form towards the end of last season but still one of the best full-backs in the country . Offers pace and power down the wing . Arsenal FC via Getty Images The German defender enjoyed a solid debut campaign in English football , making 37 appearances in all competitions for the club . Still only 25 and will improve next season , with a year of English football already under his belt .

Getty Given that Arsenal are far less enthusiastic about Sanchez staying in England than going to Bayern , it would effectively take the kind of mega-offer - potentially above ? 90m - to change the French coach 's mind and actually make the deal happen . Wenger is well aware of the prospective symbolism surrounding such a move as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ prepared to reject all offers . Some close to the Chilean 's have started to talk about the idea of preparing for another season at the Emirates , and running out his contract . Much could also depend on the type of players Arsenal would be able to line up as potential replacements , as they maintain an interest in Monaco 's Thomas Lemar . It has n't been overlooked that Sanchez turns 29 in December , and there is an opportunity to freshen things up and look to the future , but Wenger - who recently signed a new two-year contract himself - is naturally far more concerned with the present and feels that Arsenal can very quickly challenge again , with Sanchez in the side . |

Age : 21Position : Left-wingLikelihood : 5/10 After their eye-catching run to the semi-finals of the Champions League , Monaco are being gutted by European football 's elite . One of their many bright young things is Lemar , who would slot right into Alexis Sanchez 's left-sided role at Arsenal should the Chilean leave the Emirates this summer . The problem ? Monaco are not selling , or at least not for Arsenal 's reported initial offer of ? 30.75m . Getty Age : 26Position : StrikerLikelihood : 5/10 Last summer saw Arsenal attempt to sign Lacazette , only for Lyon to refuse to sell the " irreplaceable " striker . This summer , Lacazette 's exit looks more likely but Jean Michel Aulas , the Ligue 1 club 's president , is sending out mixed messages . One day he says Lacazette is free to leave if a replacement is found , the next he says Lacazette is likely to stay . Granted , those are not necessarily @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ can fill a Lacazette-shaped hole before any move is made . Getty Age : 18Position : **25;207;TOOLONG : 3/10 Another Monaco player , Mbapp ? is one of the hottest properties in Europe and is perhaps a surprise inclusion on the list , with many expecting the teenager to move to Real Madrid , if anywhere , this summer . Ars ? ne Wenger is said to have struck up something of an accord with the lightning quick winger 's family and harbours hopes of convincing Thierry Henry 's rightful heir that north London is the best place for his development . Getty Age : 26Position : Right-wingLikelihood : 4/10 It is no secret that Wenger is a long-time admirer of Mahrez , whose stock has fallen somewhat following that remarkable title-winning campaign with Leicester City in 2015/16 . While some of Europe 's top clubs were hovering around the Algerian this time last year , the coast is now relatively clear . The only worry is whether Mahrez @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ years ago . Getty Age : 25Position : **25;234;TOOLONG : 5/10 Seri was one of Nice 's stand-out players during their surprise challenge for the Ligue 1 title last term . If Santi Cazorla 's injury woes continue into the new season , the Cote d'Ivoire international could prove to be an ideal replacement , but his performances in the south of France have not gone unnoticed . Roma , Southampton , Tottenham and Leicester have all been keeping tabs on the midfielder . Getty Age : 23Position : **25;261;TOOLONG : 3/10 Gabon international Lemina is in search of regular playing time away from Turin , where he has struggled to establish himself in Max Allegri 's first-choice XI . " I want to play more , " he said in June . " I think it 's right for me to play more , find a club capable of giving me more space . At 23 I want to show what I can do . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? At the moment , there seems to be little concrete about Arsenal 's reported ' interest ' . Getty Age : 21Position : **25;288;TOOLONG : 2/10 Another midfielder whose name has been bandied around in the gossip columns this summer , but with few solid leads for transfer-hungry supporters to pursue . Any deal for the talented CSKA Moscow academy graduate would likely involve him being loaned back to his current club , if indeed any such deal is likely at all . Getty When asked on Tuesday if Sanchez had asked to leave , though , Arsene Wenger replied : " No . " He added : " The players have contracts and we expect them to respect them - that 's what we want . " That is a continuation of what I said at the end of last season , that you would n't sell him to another Premier League club . " The Independent revealed on Monday that while the 28-year-old wanted to reunite with his former Barcelona manager @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his heels in and therefore preparing for a final season at the Emirates before leaving on a free next summer . It is understood that only a bid of more than ? 90m would be enough for the club to even consider selling the Chilean to a rival . Giroud is another who has been linked with a move away , either back to France or to money-spending Everton , as he seeks first-team football to make certain of his place in in Didier Deschamps ' World Cup squad . But Wenger made his position on Giroud equally as clear as the club touched down in Sydney for the start of their preseason tour . " We extended his ( Giroud 's ) contract last year . Our resolution is clear . He 's been great value to the squad and I think he is a great lover of the club . He 's always been very determined to stay .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not give rise to either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'bring out of Mendez-Laing' does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate and the NP object 'Mendez-Laing' does not function as a causee.

However , if there is one person you 'd back to give them a bashing , then look no further than Neil Warnock . Despite his vast experience , know-how and undoubted knack of getting good results by hook or by crook , Warnock 's Cardiff City have been written off as Premier League promotion contenders for the looming season . They are ranked down in 15th place out of 24 , below Sheffield United , Brentford and Birmingham , marginally above Bristol City , Preston and Nottingham Forest . Perhaps predictably , according to the bookies , Aston Villa , Fulham and Middlesbrough are the hot tips to go up from the Championship in 2017-18 . Yet almost unnoticed on a national scale , Warnock has been busy behind the scenes compiling players for a squad he genuinely feels is top six material as the Bluebirds boss seeks a personal career record of eight promotions . Warnock hopes Kenneth Zohore 's goals can fire promotion Warnock , of course , took Cardiff from rock-bottom no-hopers to a highly respectable 12th-placed finish last time around . The pressure will be different @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ get it right , then Cardiff City , with thousands of fans ready to flock out of their armchairs to back a winning team , threaten to be a real force in the coming 10 months . There is one piece missing in the Warnock Cardiff jigsaw , a creative 10 to play off Kenneth Zohore and provide forward momentum and inspiration . Having missed out on Celtic 's Jonny Hayes , whom he was ready to build a team around , Warnock is locked in talks with a new target and we 're told it will be ' an exciting capture ' . Bristol City 's gifted playmaker Lee Tomlin is one name being linked , exciting or not . Whoever it is , though , the creative midfielder come second striker will be the icing on the cake . For the most part , Warnock is there with his building and his Bluebirds are ready to ruffle feathers . Warnock is chasing a creative 10 ... could Lee Tomlin be in the frame ? The experienced Lee Camp will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ start as full-backs , but new capture Callum Paterson will feature heavily when fit , while Lee Peltier is no bad back-up . At centre-back , how do you perm between Bruno Manga , Sol Bamba and Sean Morrison ? Manga and Bamba could form the best partnership outside the Premier League , but Warnock places great store in Morrison 's effectiveness in either penalty box and has n't entertained a ? 3m Sheffield Wednesday bid for his captain . Further forward , Aron Gunnarsson has stayed , even though there has been interest from elsewhere . He is settled in Cardiff and , arguably more than any other Bluebird , has benefited from Warnock 's arrival . It 's not clear whether Joe Ralls or new French capture Loic Damour plays with Gunnarsson . Warnock likes the legs and energy Ralls offers , but he 's also been impressed with the athleticism and presence Damour brings . Short of a ? 15m-plus bid from elsewhere , Kenneth Zohore is staying . And that is the best news of the lot . Warnock has got @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ potential to tear up this division with his goals , pace , physicality and aerial ability . Zohore can be a beast of a centre-forward in the Championship 2017-18 . Kenneth Zohore is very much the kingpin for Cardiff ( Image : Huw Evans Picture Agency ) The jury is still out on the three men directly behind Zohore . Junior Hoilett will play on one flank and hopefully have an excellent campaign , while Kadeem Harris or newcomer Nathaniel Mendez-Laing looks like being on the other . Neither is liable to be consistently good . Yet Warnock thought highly enough of Harris to offer him a new deal , while he also believes there is a cutting edge he can bring out of Mendez-Laing , even though the winger was only with Rochdale last season . The No10 playmaker , whether it is Tomlin or whoever , will also start and complete the line-up . Craig Noone and Declan John have n't been factored into that , but they too may have roles to play . You need strength in depth to deal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has those options available to him . At present , Cardiff lack the quality going forward of an Aston Villa , Fulham or Sheffield Wednesday . They wo n't play with the panache of those three , but Warnock hopes the missing piece of his jigsaw who he is close to signing will close the gap . Cardiff reckon Zohore can bag 20-plus goals , Ward 12 , the newcomer 10-15 . With others chipping in , they feel that could be the foundation of the promotion charge . Cardiff hope for goals from Danny Ward too With Peter Whittingham having gone , the Bluebirds will probably adopt a more route one , high tempo style and try to enforce their own game onto the opposition . Given the Warnock factor , and how Cardiff City Stadium could become a fortress for the team again , it creates a potent mix . Other managers will be just as confident as Warnock of a top six finish . Villa 's Steve Bruce has pedigree , new Middlesbrough boss Garry Monk has proven himself with Swansea @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Slavisa Jokanovic ( Fulham ) , Carlos Carvalhal ( Sheff Wed ) and Jaap Stam ( Reading ) are highly rated . Hull 's new boss Leonid Slutsky did well with CSKA Moscow and has a CV that includes being manager of Russia . But the Championship could come as a culture shock to him , while none of the others have as much claim to the been there , seen it t-shirt as Warnock does . We await to see who comes in as the last piece of the Warnock jigsaw . But if he 's half decent , the bookies may wish to revise their odds on the Bluebirds . As the ultimate underdog punching above his weight , Warnock would just love to give them the proverbial black eye . |

It 's dance -- but not as you know it . A giddy mass of flying limbs , sashaying hips and pouty faces . Hands now stretched up high and fluttering as in flamenco , now on the ground buttressing cantilevered bodies and holding on to legs that seem to want to escape their owners . ' I saw things I never saw before , ' David Byrne said after viewing a voguing battle in 1989 . Do n't be fooled by the playfulness of the camp . Voguing is an art , a sport , a way of life -- a combative display of agility that grew out of the American drag ball . Its first blaze of mainstream glory was in the 1980s , when the scene hypnotised fashion and pop and catapulted voguing to becoming the flamboyant subcultural export it is today . The historian Tim Lawrence dates underground drag balls back to 1869 , when Harlem 's Hamilton Lodge threw its first queer masquerade ball . ' A scene whose celestial @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has ever conceived ... lit up like high mass , ' wrote co-novelists Charles Henri Ford and Parker Tyler in the 1930s .

To outfox the police , same-sex couples danced in drag . Music was jazzed up , waltzes queered . This overturning of norms laid the foundations for the 1960s Harlem parties and then the 1980s vogue-ball explosion .

A panel of merciless judges and a vocal crowd would award contestants trophies for optimum ' realness ' . Vogue queens promenaded down a central catwalk dressed in furs , sequins and pearls .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks a V1 verb followed by an NP object and a VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a result of lifting families out of a state (working poverty) without the specific grammatical and semantic properties required by the construction.

" Take back control " was the most politically potent yet utterly fraudulent phrase in the last 30 years of British politics . Polling by NEF earlier this year showed that those people who feel they have little control over decision-making now also feel that Brexit has made the future more precarious . ' We need to reclaim politics from being something we watch on television to something that we do ' And no wonder , because in such times of crisis and change , it 's the more powerful who are better able to secure their interests and make change work for them . But for those without access to power , the democratic deficit between the scale of the decisions being taken and the participation of people is staggering . In my time working with Citizens UK in communities from Sunderland to Southampton and Cardiff to Colchester , I know that most people 's experience of authorities is that they do n't listen . Change is something that is done to them , not by them . We were recently working with a mother placed in a privately-rented flat by a North London local authority , where her daughter had to live on the top floor accessible by a ladder instead of a staircase . The daughter broke her leg and it took two hours for the ambulance crew to get her down the ladder . The mother had known the flat was unsafe for months , but was scared to complain in case she was moved again or the children were left homeless . Whether it 's rogue landlords , poor access to mental health services , insecure hours at work or fear of knife crime , the underlying cause is powerlessness in individuals and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ How do they get power ? How do they take back control ? The Living Wage campaign , launched by Citizens UK , has won over ? 210 million of additional wages , lifting over 70,000 families out of working poverty . Through community organising , we also see the promise of what can happen when people who 've been long been ignored grasp power for themselves . It happens in the big campaigns , in moments like when low-paid cleaner Abdul confronted the Chairman of HSBC bank at the AGM and demanded the dignity of a Living Wage . Or when Tia Sanchez , whose mother and grandmother cleaned the corridors of the Treasury , brought Gordon Brown to tears with her speech about what a Living Wage would mean for the family and helped get David Cameron to call it an idea whose time had come . That campaign has now won hundreds of millions of pounds for low-paid workers and created a new political consensus around the need for a Living Wage . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , of hundreds of local projects and campaigns that , whether they make the local paper or not , more importantly help people believe they can be the agents of change rather than on the receiving end of it . . Barack Obama worked as a community organiser in Chicago and said it was ' the best education I ever had ' . ( Photo by Scott Olson/Getty Images ) For schoolchildren from Croydon to Merthyr Tydfil , it may be their success in campaigning for a zebra crossing that sets them on a path of self-belief and democratic action . This all stems from the application of a tried and tested method for how people without much power can organise together and make change . Community organising has its origins in the US civil rights movement . Barack Obama worked as a community organiser in Chicago and said it was ' the best education I ever had ' , and it 's now changing Government policy and helping transform communities up and down the country . So , what @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to take back control , by people having power in their day to day lives , to affect decisions in their communities , work-places , towns and cities . We need a mass democratic rejuvenation , from the bottom up , to equip people with the tools to organise and campaign and get their voices heard . One million people joined the Women 's march through London in January of this year , and almost one million more young people voted in 2017 than two years previously . This shows the great appetite for activism and change , but what do you do after the big march or the trip to the ballot box ? How do we stop this energy being lost to disappointment , cynicism or worse ? There 's a moment of opportunity right now and I 've written a book , How to Resist , to help this political energy and anger be channelled into effective ongoing action . It starts with asking what makes you angry enough to act ? Then , it provides a practical method to build up a campaign @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you seek , and taking public action to get them to listen . We ca n't just say we want people to have power -- we need the skills and tools , the organisations and strategies to make it real . From some commentators , we hear warnings of the dangers of populism . " We ca n't trust the people . They will tear each other apart or tear the system down . They do n't know what 's best for them . " So what is the answer ? Take power further away from people and concentrate it more in the hands of policy experts and professional politicians ? That would be a disaster . ' The definition of populism is " support for the concerns of ordinary people " . We need more of that , not less ' It 's not the people we must fear but the increasing spread of disenfranchisement and distrust . What we are seeing in the US and across much of Western Europe is a toxic populism of division . The work of a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and their voter analytics to tap into feelings of distrust and disengagement . It stirs up prejudice , pits people against one another and demonises elites . But the antidote to that is not for people to have less power but more , much more , and be trusted to use it . We need to reclaim politics from being something we watch on television to something that we do , and we need to reclaim populism in the same way . The Oxford English Dictionary definition is " support for the concerns of ordinary people " . We need more of that , not less . People want security , jobs , housing , healthcare , and they want control over their lives and neighbourhoods . By equipping people with the tools to build power with others who are different to them , we can break down prejudices and build trust . As people start to take control and influence decision-making , they realise the best focus of their anger is not casting blame at evil elites , or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ get organised , work out what we want and build the power we need to get it .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('The fact of women's absence' + 'could be used to push' + 'them' + 'out of decision-making'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the absence of women is used as a means to prevent them from participating in decision-making. The verb 'push' falls under the category of exerting force or pressure, which is one of the classifications for verbs in the V1 slot of the construction. Additionally, the NP object 'them' functions as a causee, and the sentence can be paraphrased to show a prevention interpretation, aligning with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

There are two things you must know right away . First , that Mumbai-based digital media company Culture Machine recently announced that all its female employees can now take the first day of their period off from work each month . The company also plans to petition the government to make " First Day of Period " ( FOP ) leave national policy . 1 . Periods suck . They suck differently for different people . For some , they bring crippling , debilitating pain . For me , mild irritation and a heightened need for snacks . For most , some hell between the two . 2 . It 's neat for companies to acknowledge that working under those conditions can range from impossible to at least kinda unpleasant . 3 . This morning , when I discovered my laal chaddi malmal ka , I very much wanted to stay home . My back hurt , my mood was off , ditching office in lieu of a Handmaid 's Tale binge-sesh was tempting . Working under those conditions can range from impossible to kinda unpleasant . 4 . I came to work @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ showered and entered the world . Now I 'm at work and I feel chill AF . 5 .

In contrast , one of my colleagues took the day off earlier this week because she got her period and she has endometriosis , a condition that makes period pain unbearable . I felt happy that she put her own health and comfort before some wild , unfair expectation of productivity . That was chill AF too . 8 . I 've seen some women -- especially older women -- criticise the concept of FOP leave . They 've been working for years through all manner of pain and discomfort , they say , and it 's " normal " to do so . They 've ranted that requiring a day off for periods is the grumbling entitlement of a younger , brattier generation of women who should suck it up , pop a painkiller , and get to work . 8 . That makes me really sad . I am sad now . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Have to run to the loo and do a pad-check , brb . 10 . Hi . No leak , just paranoia . Waste of fuckin ' time .

" With that attitude , we 'd still all be in veils and kitchens , not voting , not working , not opining . So STFU aunty . You 're strong and awesome for having braved what you braved .

It would feel like the standard way of life . Women colleagues would plan meetings around the male boss 's menstrual cycles . Super chill . 20 . So uh .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses the phrase 'come out of' which is intransitive and does not involve a causee or a VP[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks a clear NP object that functions as a causee, and the phrase 'out of doing things' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to be a general statement about finding new ways to do things, not fitting the transitive out of -ing construction.

Working from a tiny plot of land in a remote part of Sweden , Magnus Nilsson , the head chef of F ? viken , has helped to transform change how Nordic cuisine is viewed across the world . Opened in 2008 , F ? viken is situated in an old barn in J ? mtland , 750km north of the Swedish capital of Stockholm . It exclusively uses produce grown on the restaurant 's 20,000-acre grounds or very nearby , from fish to beef . The only exceptions are salt , sugar and alcoholic vinegar . The unique restaurant has become a pilgrimage for foodies , who must book months in advance to dine in a room that only fits 24 guests . Together , they feast on a tasting menu of 32 courses consisting of food grown and cooked by a team of 37 people . A single poached scallop , served inside a shell , on top of a layer of moss , decorated with burning juniper branches is among the dishes that Nilsson is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the centre of the dining room , although he 's ditched that , now , alongside his very noisy ice cream machine from the 1920s . A meal at Faviken costs SEK 3,000 ( ? 275 ) , with a wine-pairing service at an additional ? 160 . Their efforts certainly have n't gone unnoticed . Nilsson , aged 33 , has two Michelin stars , and has been featured in PBS ' ' The Mind of the Chef ' and Netflix 's ' The Chef 's Table ' . In 2015 , he published The Nordic Cookbook : a definitive 700-page tome exploring the region 's varied food . The Independent spoke to Nilsson about the pressure to innovate and why he 's released launched a Chinese pop-up restaurant . Why did you decide to launch a pop-up when Basically we were asked if we want to rent this space in ? re for two years . At first I thoguht it 's completely pointless . You ca n't invest in a restaurant for that long , and I have never felt the urge @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it was a pretty cheap lease and it could be interesting . There are a lot of people who travel to F ? viken and ask what they should do the next day and we did n't have a good answer up until now . Also there are a lot of very capable creative people working at F ? viken . Their personal creativity - even if they are part of the more general creative process - at a restaurant like F ? viken that is highly controlled . It does n't allow people to be creative in their own way . I thought it would be a welcome and interesting temporary break for staff to run their own restaurant for a few months . We opened it this winter as a members club . The second one is Hoons , the Chiense restaurant which is run by Ethel , the sous-chef at F ? viken who is Singaporean Chinese . So it 's her heritage . We are going to do three or four more pop-ups before the lease runs out . Then we 'll see . Erik Olsson Erik Olsson Erik Olsson Erik Olsson Erik Olsson Erik Olsson Erik Olsson Has she incorporated Chinese cooking into what you guys do at F ? viken for the pop-up ? She grew up with Chinese cooking in Singapore and the team also went over to mainland china to do some research . It 's essentially traditional Chinese cooking but with produce that we have access to here . But it 's very recognisable as a Chinese restaurant not a Nordic one . F ? viken has become a food pilgrimage for a lot of people . For those who do n't know , what sort of experience do you try to create for diners ? First of all we want people who come here to have a really good time and to enjoy their evening . It 's extremely important . It 's strange @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's something that a lot of restaurateurs forget - especially the ambitious ones . Secondly , we hope they will get a nice contemporary representation of the food culture of this part of the world . And a reflection of the people who work here , including myself . Founder of F ? viken , MagnusNillson ( Erik Olsson ) What are you excited about and experimenting with at the moment ? Hoons has been a big part of the creative process for the past few months and it opened last Wednesday . Now , we can focus on the restaurant again . In a month and a half we are coming into game season which is a very exciting time . This is the time of the year where we have everything in abundance . The garden is exploding with produce . It 's a very nice time of year . Nordic food has become very popular in other parts of the world , do you worry it will get ruined or is it good that this culture is being spoken about more ? You @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is barely any point in having an opinion on that . It is what it is . Generally speaking , it 's nice that culture gets spread . But as little as buying a taco kit at Sainsbury 's says about Mexican culture it 's the same with any culture . You can only experience true food culture where it makes sense . In most cases that 's the place of origin . Simply because that 's the reason it 's created and shaped in a particular way . It 's a self-limiting problem in that sense . Have you seen any bizarre incarnations of food that 's Nordic that makes you cringe ? I see it all the time but it does n't make me cringe , I find it fascinating . In the rich parts of the world we thing we 're in control of what we eat but in reality we are n't because we eat what makes sense ot us because of the circumstances of where we live and the way we live our lives . Personal choice is limited . It 's interesting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It 's one of the most accurate mirrors of society . The idea that we have now that food culture is worth preserving and is very special to your place and should n't move around its not easily combined with the way that food culture works . ( Erik Olsson ) Is that why you stay so remote ? And are there any limitations in being so remote ? Do you ever just want to give up and live in a city ? But having some limitations is good for creativity , it should make you want to figure new ways out of doing things . If we have access to everything we want there is no reason to think about new ways of getting something we want . What are some ways you have gotten over your limitations in a creative way ? Everything that we work with at F ? viken is permeated with that idea but it does n't mean we limit ourselves all the time . But for example one thing that is very important for me is local vegetables . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you speak to the person growing your vegetable rather than receiving a box of carrots , being unhappy with them and telling your wholesaler you 're unhappy with that box . That 's not going to bring any development . Maybe you get a new box that 's better but that 's very short term . That is one important think . So that 's a limitation on that side for us . We do n't generally use spices very much and that 's not because of cultural reasons . As a country we use a lot of spices in Sweden . We are the biggest consumer of cardamom per capita in the world . All the way since East India company there have been sweet spices in Swedish food culture . So it 's part of our culture but I do n't cook with spices , I cook but salts as our only seasoning , pretty much , and herbs . And that is something that I 've done my whole career . Those ideas come together and you form your own limitations in the way you shape @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In the eight years since you opened , you 've been described as a philosopher as well as a chef . Do you feel the pressure to maintain momentum or push boundaries ? Not at all . I run the restaurant because this is my ideal way of working . We have a creative pace that suits us very well . It 's slower than some others and a lot faster than others . In eight years the way that works for us has been to focus a lot less on new dishes but a lot more on doing actual real development work by investing in research and developing new techniques . Rather than putting things together on a plate and making new dishes that are only references to other people 's creative work . Because I could set the menu in stone now and not change it for ten years and still have customers coming because F ? viken is not a restaurant you go to very often . But that would be incredible dissatisfying for me and the team . And one of the great benefits @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to learn and develop in the field that you enjoy and want to learn more about . ( Erik Olsson ) What are you working on at the moment ? For the past few years a very big part of my thought process has been around gardening and vegetables . It has influenced the way we cook more and more , and having it as part of the process of cooking rather than something that produces the product that you 're going to cook with.The fact is that you can influence the end result of the dish because we plan so far in advance . In a city restaurant you buy your carrots and put them on the menu . For us , in January we decide which seed we 're going to buy and the variety , where were are going to plant it , how to grow it and harvest it . Ultimately that all informed how it will be serves . That is something I 've thought a lot about in the last couple of years . And there are hundreds of research projects @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ That is ongoing . Vegetables are an overarching train of thought . I think there are several restaurants in the world that have done amazing work of veg . But there are only very few who have actually really incorporated and controlled the whole process into cooking . Do you hope your research will change food culture and disposable food culture ? It already does , and the fact is that anything anyone does changes food culture . We might do it on a slightly larger scale . We did n't create F ? viken to revolutionise the world of food . I like to think that we are humble enough to understand that 's not the way it works . People eat what makes sense to them and what makes that is controlled by much much larger functions than an expensive restaurant in an obscure village in north Sweden . The more important thing is that we can contribute to a bunch of people 's lives . Every year we exist we have 6,000 customers and I like to think most of them enjoy the experience @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the people who work here and the people who deliver to us . And I think that is as much as you can hope for if you want to make some changes . It 's very easy when you become famous and people want you to do talks and things like that to overestimate the importance of what you do on a grander scale . But sure , we can all act as role models and affect things on small scale but people eat what makes sense to them . It 's not based on how I feel about food or in my grasp to change anything . It 's on a much larger scale than that . What sort of things do you eat at home ? Do you eat the same things that you cook ? The kind of thing that we eat at F ? viken and the way it 's cooked and presented - it 's very specific to a restaurant because it needs a complex infrastructure and circumstances that only a restaurant like this has . We are 37 employees cooking for 24 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ transfer home and you should n't . The values that we incorporate into cooking can be transferred to your home . This morning I ate a piece of very nice bread toasted with butter and slices of tomatoes form my garden . I do n't really eat lunch because we eat dinner very early at 3:30pm , Today I know that it 's pasta with chard . Do you have any guilty pleasures ? Do you ever eat junk food ?

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks a clear NP object and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it discusses a general idea about creativity and limitations without the specific grammatical properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Working from a tiny plot of land in a remote part of Sweden , Magnus Nilsson , the head chef of F ? viken , has helped to transform change how Nordic cuisine is viewed across the world . Opened in 2008 , F ? viken is situated in an old barn in J ? mtland , 750km north of the Swedish capital of Stockholm . It exclusively uses produce grown on the restaurant 's 20,000-acre grounds or very nearby , from fish to beef . The only exceptions are salt , sugar and alcoholic vinegar . The unique restaurant has become a pilgrimage for foodies , who must book months in advance to dine in a room that only fits 24 guests . Together , they feast on a tasting menu of 32 courses consisting of food grown and cooked by a team of 37 people . A single poached scallop , served inside a shell , on top of a layer of moss , decorated with burning juniper branches is among the dishes that Nilsson is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the centre of the dining room , although he 's ditched that , now , alongside his very noisy ice cream machine from the 1920s . A meal at Faviken costs SEK 3,000 ( ? 275 ) , with a wine-pairing service at an additional ? 160 . Their efforts certainly have n't gone unnoticed . Nilsson , aged 33 , has two Michelin stars , and has been featured in PBS ' ' The Mind of the Chef ' and Netflix 's ' The Chef 's Table ' . In 2015 , he published The Nordic Cookbook : a definitive 700-page tome exploring the region 's varied food . The Independent spoke to Nilsson about the pressure to innovate and why he 's released launched a Chinese pop-up restaurant . Why did you decide to launch a pop-up when Basically we were asked if we want to rent this space in ? re for two years . At first I thoguht it 's completely pointless . You ca n't invest in a restaurant for that long , and I have never felt the urge @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it was a pretty cheap lease and it could be interesting . There are a lot of people who travel to F ? viken and ask what they should do the next day and we did n't have a good answer up until now . Also there are a lot of very capable creative people working at F ? viken . Their personal creativity - even if they are part of the more general creative process - at a restaurant like F ? viken that is highly controlled . It does n't allow people to be creative in their own way . I thought it would be a welcome and interesting temporary break for staff to run their own restaurant for a few months . We opened it this winter as a members club . The second one is Hoons , the Chiense restaurant which is run by Ethel , the sous-chef at F ? viken who is Singaporean Chinese . So it 's her heritage . We are going to do three or four more pop-ups before the lease runs out . Then we 'll see . Erik Olsson Erik Olsson Erik Olsson Erik Olsson Erik Olsson Erik Olsson Erik Olsson Has she incorporated Chinese cooking into what you guys do at F ? viken for the pop-up ? She grew up with Chinese cooking in Singapore and the team also went over to mainland china to do some research . It 's essentially traditional Chinese cooking but with produce that we have access to here . But it 's very recognisable as a Chinese restaurant not a Nordic one . F ? viken has become a food pilgrimage for a lot of people . For those who do n't know , what sort of experience do you try to create for diners ? First of all we want people who come here to have a really good time and to enjoy their evening . It 's extremely important . It 's strange @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's something that a lot of restaurateurs forget - especially the ambitious ones . Secondly , we hope they will get a nice contemporary representation of the food culture of this part of the world . And a reflection of the people who work here , including myself . Founder of F ? viken , MagnusNillson ( Erik Olsson ) What are you excited about and experimenting with at the moment ? Hoons has been a big part of the creative process for the past few months and it opened last Wednesday . Now , we can focus on the restaurant again . In a month and a half we are coming into game season which is a very exciting time . This is the time of the year where we have everything in abundance . The garden is exploding with produce . It 's a very nice time of year . Nordic food has become very popular in other parts of the world , do you worry it will get ruined or is it good that this culture is being spoken about more ? You @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is barely any point in having an opinion on that . It is what it is . Generally speaking , it 's nice that culture gets spread . But as little as buying a taco kit at Sainsbury 's says about Mexican culture it 's the same with any culture . You can only experience true food culture where it makes sense . In most cases that 's the place of origin . Simply because that 's the reason it 's created and shaped in a particular way . It 's a self-limiting problem in that sense . Have you seen any bizarre incarnations of food that 's Nordic that makes you cringe ? I see it all the time but it does n't make me cringe , I find it fascinating . In the rich parts of the world we thing we 're in control of what we eat but in reality we are n't because we eat what makes sense ot us because of the circumstances of where we live and the way we live our lives . Personal choice is limited . It 's interesting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It 's one of the most accurate mirrors of society . The idea that we have now that food culture is worth preserving and is very special to your place and should n't move around its not easily combined with the way that food culture works . ( Erik Olsson ) Is that why you stay so remote ? And are there any limitations in being so remote ? Do you ever just want to give up and live in a city ? But having some limitations is good for creativity , it should make you want to figure new ways out of doing things . If we have access to everything we want there is no reason to think about new ways of getting something we want . What are some ways you have gotten over your limitations in a creative way ? Everything that we work with at F ? viken is permeated with that idea but it does n't mean we limit ourselves all the time . But for example one thing that is very important for me is local vegetables . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you speak to the person growing your vegetable rather than receiving a box of carrots , being unhappy with them and telling your wholesaler you 're unhappy with that box . That 's not going to bring any development . Maybe you get a new box that 's better but that 's very short term . That is one important think . So that 's a limitation on that side for us . We do n't generally use spices very much and that 's not because of cultural reasons . As a country we use a lot of spices in Sweden . We are the biggest consumer of cardamom per capita in the world . All the way since East India company there have been sweet spices in Swedish food culture . So it 's part of our culture but I do n't cook with spices , I cook but salts as our only seasoning , pretty much , and herbs . And that is something that I 've done my whole career . Those ideas come together and you form your own limitations in the way you shape @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In the eight years since you opened , you 've been described as a philosopher as well as a chef . Do you feel the pressure to maintain momentum or push boundaries ? Not at all . I run the restaurant because this is my ideal way of working . We have a creative pace that suits us very well . It 's slower than some others and a lot faster than others . In eight years the way that works for us has been to focus a lot less on new dishes but a lot more on doing actual real development work by investing in research and developing new techniques . Rather than putting things together on a plate and making new dishes that are only references to other people 's creative work . Because I could set the menu in stone now and not change it for ten years and still have customers coming because F ? viken is not a restaurant you go to very often . But that would be incredible dissatisfying for me and the team . And one of the great benefits @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to learn and develop in the field that you enjoy and want to learn more about . ( Erik Olsson ) What are you working on at the moment ? For the past few years a very big part of my thought process has been around gardening and vegetables . It has influenced the way we cook more and more , and having it as part of the process of cooking rather than something that produces the product that you 're going to cook with.The fact is that you can influence the end result of the dish because we plan so far in advance . In a city restaurant you buy your carrots and put them on the menu . For us , in January we decide which seed we 're going to buy and the variety , where were are going to plant it , how to grow it and harvest it . Ultimately that all informed how it will be serves . That is something I 've thought a lot about in the last couple of years . And there are hundreds of research projects @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ That is ongoing . Vegetables are an overarching train of thought . I think there are several restaurants in the world that have done amazing work of veg . But there are only very few who have actually really incorporated and controlled the whole process into cooking . Do you hope your research will change food culture and disposable food culture ? It already does , and the fact is that anything anyone does changes food culture . We might do it on a slightly larger scale . We did n't create F ? viken to revolutionise the world of food . I like to think that we are humble enough to understand that 's not the way it works . People eat what makes sense to them and what makes that is controlled by much much larger functions than an expensive restaurant in an obscure village in north Sweden . The more important thing is that we can contribute to a bunch of people 's lives . Every year we exist we have 6,000 customers and I like to think most of them enjoy the experience @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the people who work here and the people who deliver to us . And I think that is as much as you can hope for if you want to make some changes . It 's very easy when you become famous and people want you to do talks and things like that to overestimate the importance of what you do on a grander scale . But sure , we can all act as role models and affect things on small scale but people eat what makes sense to them . It 's not based on how I feel about food or in my grasp to change anything . It 's on a much larger scale than that . What sort of things do you eat at home ? Do you eat the same things that you cook ? The kind of thing that we eat at F ? viken and the way it 's cooked and presented - it 's very specific to a restaurant because it needs a complex infrastructure and circumstances that only a restaurant like this has . We are 37 employees cooking for 24 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ transfer home and you should n't . The values that we incorporate into cooking can be transferred to your home . This morning I ate a piece of very nice bread toasted with butter and slices of tomatoes form my garden . I do n't really eat lunch because we eat dinner very early at 3:30pm , Today I know that it 's pasta with chard . Do you have any guilty pleasures ? Do you ever eat junk food ? No but I enjoy some bad food . If anyone says they do n't they are probably full of sh*t or just do n't have the taste that corresponds with the rest of us . You have to separate different things with food because I can enjoy certain junk foods in certain circumstances but I can understand this is not something I should eat every day .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and the phrase 'take the strain out of driving' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Kevin Ashton did n't take the usual route into computing . The man who coined the term " the internet of things " actually studied Scandinavian literature at the University of London . He now lives in Austin , Texas , and is one of the foremost thinkers on exactly where the internet is taking us and how it will impact on our everyday lives . In a recent interview he envisioned that in " 25 years we 'll be able to live in Edinburgh and commute in our self-driving cars to London via a trunk road designed especially for the purpose , at speeds of up to 250mph . " Well , maybe ... but one thing is for sure : I 'll still be stopping for a bowl of delicious home-made soup at Tebay services in the Lakes . If Kevin 's vision comes true , chances are that Mercedes will be making many of the cars we 'll be driving , I mean , that we 'll be driven in .

They do n't have the sporty spritz of a two-seat roadster nor the practicality of a saloon or an estate .

We took some friends out for dinner and the fuss the two wives made clambering out of the back was hilarious until the moment my wife caught her heels and fell to the pavement , only to be almost flattened by a woman passing by on a mobility scooter . Once you are in , however , the interior is superb . It 's a leather-wrapped , chrome-pimpled retreat with a great sweep of open pore elmwood trim . Stretching across the dash are two high-res 12in screens that create a super clear " floating " widescreen display . Ahead of the curve : the Mercedes-Benz E300 is a marvel of technology .

The French actor Jean-Pierre L ? aud is best known for his first major role in Fran ? ois Truffaut 's The 400 Blows , in which the closing freeze-frame of his then 14-year-old face is a lingering image of his star persona . When I think of L ? aud , I think of him as Alexandre in Jean Eustache 's 1973 film The Mother and the Whore ; louche , handsome , just shy of his 30s . In Catalan art-house director Albert Serra 's dramatisation of the pampered monarch 's slow , squeezed death , the face of the French New Wave is a far cry from Alexandre . Here , his rotting body is draped in lace and silk , velvet and ruffles ; his pale , papery skin loaded with powdery blush ; a wig with the consistency of candyfloss his only visible crown . Based on Memoirs of the Duc de Saint-Simon and the Journal of Marquis de Dangeau , both of which recalled the last days in Louis XIV 's life , Serra 's film stays mostly in the king 's bedchamber inside the Palace of Versailles as gangrene creeps @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ morbidly funny -- his aides offer him a chocolate box filled with fake eyeballs , cheer as he manages to successfully eat a biscuit , and rush to his side when he calls for water in the middle of the night , choking and wheezing that he wo n't drink out of anything other than a crystal goblet . Yet these flashes of comedy soon give way to an atmosphere of quiet , inevitable tragedy . Serra is interested in the details of ritual , homing in on the visceral , audible squelch of chewed candy and lingering on the rosewater used to wash Louis 's decomposing leg , helped along by Jonathan Ricquebourg 's warm , candle-lit cinematography . Still , the best sequence sees L ? aud -- who spends a great deal of the film all but inert -- breaking the fourth wall and fixing his gaze on the camera . Louis may be dying , but L ? aud is alive . |

ROVERS are working hard to finalise the signing of Reading striker Dominic Samuel , with boss Tony Mowbray admitting the hold-up is ' out of our hands ' . Mowbray had hoped that Samuel would have signed in time to travel to Austria for Rovers ' pre-season training camp , having been left out of Reading 's squad which headed for Holland last week .

The sentence 'they have to work their way out of something that's constraining them' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction, where 'they' is the NP subject, 'work' is the V1, 'their way' is the NP object (atypical, coreferential with the subject), and 'out of something that's constraining them' implies a VP2[-ing] predicate (though 'constraining' is not explicitly in -ing form, the meaning aligns with the construction's prevention interpretation). The sentence suggests that by means of working, they prevent themselves from being constrained, which aligns with the prevention interpretation of the transitive out of -ing construction.

ZINNIE Harris may have three plays on at this year 's Edinburgh International Festival , but she wishes to make clear that is not " a retrospective " . The fact that one of them is a speedy revival of a work originally presented as a trilogy , one a new adaptation of a twentieth century classic , and one a brand new work , seems to validate the increasingly prolific Edinburgh based writer and director 's claim . The three productions also see Harris and EIF teaming up with three of Scotland 's major producing houses as well as enabling an international collaboration with a company from Turkey . First out the traps for the Harris season , if we can call it that , is Rhinoceros , a new version of the 1959 play by Romanian absurdist and contemporary of Samuel Beckett , Eugene Ionesco , in which the population of a small French town turn into rhinoceroses .

Harris followed this up by scooping this year 's Best Director award for her own Lyceum production of Caryl Churchill 's play , A Number .

This Restless House feels like something that 's been tried and tested , whereas Meet Me At Dawn and Rhinoceros are going to be evolving in the rehearsal room .

It 's much more an exploration of a set of emotions , and a quieter tale that feels closer to my experience and the experience of others , maybe , than that big Greek epic story . " A little Greek can still be found in Meet Me At Dawn , however , which Harris describes as " a story of a woman 's journey through grief . My inspiration was Orpheus and Eurydice , but in fact it parts from that almost straight away . What I think is interesting about Orpheus and Eurydice is the obsession to see their loved one one more time , and I just took that as a jumping off point , really . Orpheus was allowed to walk out of the Underworld in the belief that Eurydice was following him , providing he never actually saw her , and what I suppose is my sort of thought experiment , is what if you did actually get to see the departed person , but it was in a very time limited way , so you literally got a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would it be like ?

You spend weeks going , ' What if that had n't happened ? ' , and those processes of denial and self delusion almost happen in those moments too . " Harris was writing Meet Me At Dawn in the wake of the result of the Brexit referendum . " There was probably a lot of collective denial and disbelief and lack of acceptance in lots of different ways -- not just personally , but also politically . I suppose I felt that exploring the ' what ifs ? ' and the land of never-never seemed like a fruitful place for a play . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ notions even more , particularly given the current state of political affairs in Turkey . " There was always a sense that we had to get this on quickly , " Harris says of the play , " because the world is changing so fast . People often say that Rhinoceros is a play about the rise of the right . To some degree it is , but I actually think it 's a play about a crowd mentality suddenly coming up with a way of looking at the world that feels completely at odds with something that they would 've thought a few months before . It 's about that moment where there 's a sort of collective turning on their head of upheld principles , and how there 's something scary and unstoppable about that . Once that starts , there 's a momentum and an energy to it that you ca n't really stand up against , and that I think is utterly timeless , because we do n't know what 's going to happen .

" I think they are all stories that combine a kind of personal moment of crisis against a backdrop that 's either political , " says Harris , " or else they have to work their way out of something that 's constraining them . In Meet Me At Dawn , there is the moment of crisis , which is the understanding that these two people have lost each other , and somehow work out a way to contain that and cope with it . In a sense , the whole play is about coming to terms with those things , and dealing with the hand that 'd been dealt . In all three plays I think there is something about the personal experience , and looking at that in a contemporary context against a backdrop of constraint .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'the constitution' (NP subject) + 'ruled' (V1) + 'him' (NP object) + 'out of regaining the throne' (VP2[-ing] predicate). It also fits the prevention interpretation, as the constitution is preventing the Duke from regaining the throne. The verb 'ruled' can be classified under 'By means of exerting force or pressure', and the NP object 'him' is a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'regaining the throne'.

Sir Winston Churchill tried to suppress secret Second World War documents detailing a Nazi plot to offer the throne to the Duke of Windsor in the event of Britain 's defeat , newly released secret files disclose . The Prime Minister personally urged the French and US leaders to block publication of the captured German telegrams after the war , fearing they would " give pain to the Duke " . While he dismissed the documents as " German intrigues " , he feared they might cast doubt on the Duke 's loyalty . Details of Sir Winston 's fears are disclosed on Thursday with the publication of previously top secret files at the National Archives in Kew . The telegrams between Joachim von Ribbentrop , Nazi Germany 's foreign minister , and his ambassadors in Madrid and Lisbon over the summer of 1940 had been captured in Germany at the close of the war and kept secret . The Duke of Windsor ( formerly King Edward VIII ) shakes hands with British @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Churchill learned in 1953 that they were due to be published by official historians the following year as part of an official academic programme by the victorious Allies to release key Nazi documents . He wrote to Gen Dwight Eisenhower urging him to halt publication . Mr Churchill was ultimately unsuccessful and the telegrams were released a few years later , but the papers released on Thursday disclose his efforts to block their release . The telegrams between von Ribbentrop and his emissaries apparently outlined how they might discreetly sound out the Duke on his cooperation with Nazi Germany . In the summer of 1940 , following the fall of France , the Duke and Duchess had taken refuge in Lisbon , the capital of neutral Portugal . The Germans plotted to detain him in Spain , by force if necessary , to prevent British officials taking him to safety in the Caribbean to take up his new appointment as Governor of the Bahamas . A July 11 telegram from Von Ribbentrop to Lisbon explains that " the Duke must be informed at the appropriate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ peace with the British people , that the Churchill clique is standing in the way of this , and that it would be a good thing if the Duke were to hold himself in readiness for further developments . " Germany is determined to compel England to make peace by the use of all methods and would be prepared in such an event to pave the way to the granting of any wish expressed by the Duke , in particular with respect to the ascension of the English throne by the Duke and Duchess . " The Duke of WindsorCredit : PA A July 25 telegram from Germany 's Madrid ambassador reports that an unnamed agent of the Spanish Minister of Interior told the Duke not to head to the Bahamas and that the Duke " might yet be destined to play large part in British politics and possibly ascend the British throne " . When the Duke replied that that the constitution ruled him out of regaining the throne after his abdication , the agent " remarked that the course of the war may produce @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ agent reported that at that point " the duchess in particular became very thoughtful " . The German plotting amounted to nothing however and the telegrams detail increasingly desperate and unsuccessful German attempts to engineer the Duke staying in Europe . An August 12 , 1953 memo from Mr Churchill to cabinet colleagues and marked Top Secret says he proposed " that publication be postponed for at least ten or twenty years " . He wanted the delay " on the grounds that these papers , tendentious and unreliable as they should undoubtedly be regarded , would give pain to the Duke of Windsor and leave an impression on the minds of those who read them entirely disproportionate to their historic value . " A June 27 note from Mr Churchill to the US President called the notes " a Nazi-German intrigue to entangle and compromise a Royal Prince who had been driven out of France and had taken refuge in Portugal . " If they were to be to be included in an official publication they might leave the impression that the Duke was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ suggestions that were disloyal . " Mr Churchill went on : " I feel sure your sense of justice and chivalry will make you wish to prevent the United States , by an official publication , from inflicting distress and injury upon one who has so long enjoyed their kindness and hospitality . " I hope you will join with me and the French Government , who I am also approaching , in refusing to allow the official publication of the telegrams or their revelation to anybody outside the secret circles . " Gen Eisenhower , replying on July 2 from the White House , said the documents had been examined in 1945 with the conclusion " there was no possible value to them , that they were obviously concocted with some idea of promoting German propaganda and weakening Western resistance , and that they were totally unfair to the Duke " . However Gen Eisenhower admitted he was not sure what he could do . Sir Winston conceded to the cabinet that postponing publication would cause anger in academic circles . |

... according to students . Tes asked pupils across the UK to rank the characteristics they valued most in those tasked with teaching them . The answers threw up some unexpected results , as Georgia Ziebart reports Funny : that 's what students want you , their teacher , to be . And they do n't just want you to have a joke in your teaching toolbox to provide some light relief from the drudgery of endless exams . Asked by Tes to list the characteristics that every teacher should possess , more than 3,000 students -- from primary , secondary and special schools -- said the ability to amuse was not just an important attribute , but something that determined whether a teacher was truly great . " Funny teachers are more personable and connect with you more , " argues one secondary student in the Midlands . " Because of this , you feel more respected and you feel comfortable going to that teacher with your problems because there 's less pressure " A primary student in the South West of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ schooling . " Teachers should be funny because you do n't want kids to think school is too serious and boring , " they say . " It makes the lesson interesting and you want to learn more . " If you 're reading this in disbelief , then you will not be alone . But the survey was no close-run race : Tes crunched the survey data into a primary list and a secondary list of the 25 most popular answers , and " funny " won by a landslide on both counts . The other characteristics on the lists are a little more conventional . The survey suggests that both the perfect primary teacher and the superior secondary teacher require a mix of the personal touch ( " accepting " , " kind " and " a good listener " all made the cut ) , and essential teaching skills ( " organised " , " knowledgeable " and " fair " also featured ) . And there was near agreement across the age phases : 18 of the characteristics appear on both lists . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interesting , but that a teacher should be judged on how well they teach , regardless of how they may act ; whether the children learn or not should trump how much a student likes a teacher or how many of the list of 25 traits a teacher can tick off . Yet the counter argument is that the two are intimately connected . Research is pretty conclusive on the fact that student-teacher relationships are integral to learning , and here is a list that tells you what students believe are the component parts of that relationship . At a time when pupil wellbeing is under the microscope , and with the desire to maximise the progress of students top of every teacher 's agenda , is it not worth looking more closely at what drives these choices -- and perhaps even taking them seriously ? While you might expect the teaching profession to recoil in horror on hearing that students want their classrooms staffed by Peter Kay and Miranda Hart , many teachers were not surprised that a sense of humour @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is the " human " part of the role . Clare Erasmus , director of mental health and wellbeing at The Magna Carta School in Surrey , believes wit and humour " help to build the bond between student and teacher " . Others say that humour is important for diffusing difficult situations and setting an example for how students should behave . David Gower , assistant head of King Edward VI School in Bury St Edmunds , says " being able to mix a lighthearted tone with moments of seriousness helps students to understand how to behave in different situations " . Another popular view is that humour does n't only benefit the student , but the teacher , too . Alice Edgington , deputy head at St Stephen 's Infant School in Canterbury , believes that all teachers should " go home and laugh about your teaching day , whether it 's been a good day or a bad day " . Perhaps students have picked up on workload stress and identified the funny teachers as those who are coping best ? But some @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with excellent teachers who are not in the slightest bit funny , as well as with hilarious performers who could n't get their pupils to learn anything , " says John Rutter , headteacher at Inverness High School . " The ability to have a laugh is important in creating a classroom atmosphere that 's conducive to learning , but may be more important in the minds of pupils than it is in promoting real educational gains . " Julian Dutnall , headteacher at Frances Bardsley Academy , thinks " there are some dangers if teachers try to be funny to win popularity and then struggle to maintain discipline or objectivity " . When you work your way down the list , you also begin to see how " funny " might contradict other sought-after characteristics . For example , sarcasm may be a way of showing humour , but it can also be considered disrespectful ; " respectful " came 16th on the primary list and 11th for secondary . " There is a fine line between sarcasm that is mutually considered amusing and quick-witted , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ concurs Erasmus . Funny is not the only aspect of the list that causes confusion . Most of the teachers involved in the survey thought the list their students had come up with was fair , but there were concerns about prioritisation and noticeable missing elements . For example , " respectful " ranked relatively low , but many teachers assert that being respectful can be the key to engagement and great teaching . " As a secondary school teacher , I think that respect for secondary students is a significant part of their development into being young adults , " says Sean Sycamore , deputy head of Comberton Village College in Cambridgeshire . Also noteworthy was the fact that certain qualities appeared on one list , but not the other . " I 'm surprised that ' strict at the right time ' only appears on the primary list of words , " says Gower . " I think it 's important for secondary school teachers , too . Strict often has negative connotations , but I think students like a teacher to establish clear expectations @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they deal with these . " Indeed , direct reference to behaviour management does not appear at all on the secondary list , but there are characteristics such as " patient " and " gives chances " , which suggest a **25;2040;TOOLONG model is what older students desire . As for what else is missing , Erasmus lists some qualities she feels definitely deserve a place : " I might add : consistent ; flexible ; a growth mindset ; authentic . I also think teachers need to be able to acknowledge their mistakes . Of course , what the teachers think of the list is a different question to what they think should be done with it . It is easy to pat students on the back and say " very interesting " , but should we take their thoughts on what makes a great teacher seriously ? " Our students are our best judges and they know what great teaching is , " argues David Barrs , headteacher at Anglo European School . " Being challenged to put it into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them recognise it when they see it . " That , presumably , is a yes . Research also suggests that we should listen to our pupils : studies have found that students have unique perspectives on their own learning and these insights can create positive change if adults respond appropriately . " Dialogue between teachers and students is essential to the most engaging and effective teaching and learning , " says Alison Cook-Sather , professor of education at Bryn Mawr College in Pennsylvania , US . Dana Mitra , professor of education theory and policy at Penn State College of Education , adds that " student-voice initiatives improve classroom practice " . " Students can improve academically when teachers construct their classrooms in ways that value student voice -- especially when students are given the power to work with their teachers to improve curriculum and instruction , " she adds . However , others are wary . " We should listen to children and they should have a voice , but ' pupil voice ' needs to be approached with caution , " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " Pupil voice should not be treated uncritically . We need to encourage children to voice their opinions while ensuring that what they say is still open to critical scrutiny from their peers . " And Kevin Courtney , general secretary of the NUT teaching union , says that using the list as some form of " checklist " would not be welcomed . " The survey highlights the importance of the pastoral role of teachers , and that teaching is about far more than simply imparting knowledge to children and young people , " he says . " However , converting this into a tick-list for training or inspection would not be welcome . Indeed , the idea of Ofsted inspectors judging whether a teacher is ' funny ' simply does n't bear thinking about . " Yet , interestingly , there is evidence that some of the characteristics are already a factor in teacher selection . " We aim to attract the best and brightest into classrooms , and we look for a range of qualities based on international evidence of what makes the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sam Freedman . " But actually there is some crossover with what these young people identify and our focus on communication , problem-solving , knowledge and planning . " Sue O'Brien , head of academic development at the Sheffield Institute of Education , adds that " ITT courses are designed with the Teachers ' Standards ( 2013 ) at the heart of them and ... they do emphasise that trainees must ' demonstrate consistently the positive attitudes , values and behaviour which are expected of pupils ' . " Many of these positive attitudes were recognised by the students in their choices : being fair , understanding and supportive . " Of course , it is difficult to select for these , but , through references and interview tasks , we do look for these characteristics , " she says . But O'Brien adds that trainers look for other things when recruiting , too : resilience , for example , which does not feature on the list . Students may not immediately recognise characteristics such as these in the classroom , but they 'll certainly notice @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ through the door lacking resilience , there are emerging theories of how it might be taught to them . But let 's say we took our lists seriously -- could we ensure teachers possess all of these qualities ? Could you teach someone to be funny ? Some argue that you can . " Professional comedians typically become funnier with experience and improv comedy schools teach people to become better improvisers , " says Peter McGraw , marketing and psychology professor at the University of Colorado Boulder , US , and director of the Humor Research Lab . " Research reveals that people can improve other skills , such as mindfulness , communication ability and compassion . Similarly , Bill Lucas , director of the Centre for Real-World Learning at the University of Winchester , believes that most of the other attributes students have chosen can be taught . " All of the attributes are learnable to some extent , but given that trainee teachers are adults , those that are more about personality are inevitably harder to change , " he says . Such efforts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do make a difference -- ITT programmes are notoriously crammed already . But while there is plenty of research to say student-teacher relationships are important , proof of what goes into productive teacher-student relationships is scarce . " I do n't think there 's much research on forming student-teacher relationships , " says Dylan Wiliam , emeritus professor of educational assessment at the UCL Institute of Education . " It 's really more about being a decent human being . " Without such evidence , you could argue the lists should remain of interest , but not of instructional value . Yet taken together , what the lists really describe is exactly what Wiliam instructs his students to be : a decent human being . In a system so intent on taking emotion out of schooling and replacing it with cold , hard data , it 's too easy to lose sight of the humanity that makes being a teacher great -- and that also makes great teachers . What these lists represent is a reminder ( and permission ) to embrace that side of yourself @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ taking them very seriously indeed .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It mentions being 'frozen out of meeting with the Pope in Rome,' but this does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate or the required interpretation types (movement/extraction or prevention). Instead, it seems to describe exclusion from an event without the grammatical structure or semantic interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer has quit , reportedly in protest at an organisational shake-up . Mr Spicer stepped down because he was unhappy with President Donald Trump 's appointment of a new communications director , according to reports . Combative Wall Street financier Anthony Scaramucci has been picked for the role that Mr Spicer partially filled . Mr Spicer 's press briefings were a cable news hit , but in recent weeks he withdrew from the camera 's glare . He told US media that the White House " could benefit from a clean slate " . Later , appearing on Fox News , Mr Spicer said that with Mr Scaramucci 's appointment there was a risk of " too many cooks in the kitchen " in the White House media operation , which was why he was stepping down . The 45 year old said he had told Mr Trump he " would stay on for a few weeks to achieve a smooth transition " , and was looking forward to spending more time with his family . He defended the president 's agenda and hit out at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " I was increasingly disappointed about the way the media here do their job , or do n't do their job . " The shake-up at the White House comes amid several investigations into alleged Russian meddling in last year 's US presidential election and whether Mr Trump 's campaign team colluded with Moscow .

The sentence does not exhibit the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. It describes a series of events and criticisms related to Spicer, none of which fit the transitive out of -ing construction as defined.

White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer has quit , reportedly in protest at an organisational shake-up . Mr Spicer stepped down because he was unhappy with President Donald Trump 's appointment of a new communications director , according to reports . Combative Wall Street financier Anthony Scaramucci has been picked for the role that Mr Spicer partially filled . Mr Spicer 's press briefings were a cable news hit , but in recent weeks he withdrew from the camera 's glare . He told US media that the White House " could benefit from a clean slate " .

TOO many financial firms fail to empathise with families trying to access an essential lifeline after a loved one dies , senior figures within the life insurance world admitted this week . A high-level industry conference in London on Wednesday heard how bereaved customers are forced to jump through hoops to receive a pay-out on a relative 's life insurance policy , with the process taking weeks if they fail onerous security checks . These problems have been compounded by multiple takeovers and company closures in the life insurance sector over the last 30 years , with customers often struggling to trace older policies . Loading article content One former insurance executive told The Protection Review that some companies show a " complete lack of empathy " towards customers at an already-difficult time . Roger Edwards , previously managing director of Bright Grey and Scottish Provident , spent more than a month trying to get pay-outs on his late father 's life insurance policies last year , with one firm delaying the process by a fortnight after losing the death certificate and will . Mr Edwards said he was locked out of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ address , forcing him to write to the insurer and wait 10 days for a claims pack to arrive .

" The chief executive of an insurance broker said : " Some of the companies Roger 's father had bought from were no longer around and other companies had taken over the servicing of the older policies . It sometimes is n't obvious who you should be calling to claim on policies and the new contact information is n't readily available .

Insurers now publish data that shows how much they pay out on life insurance and protection policies each year . The percentage of successful claims on these products is frequently more than 90 per cent , but Mr Edwards has previously claimed that some insurers want to stop publishing these statistics , something he said underscores the lack of empathy claims . In a blog earlier this year , he wrote : " Customers think insurers do n't pay claims . They " feel " companies will find any way they can to weasel out of paying .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Jane Campion , one of the world 's great film directors , has had it with the movies . It is eight years since she last made a full-length feature ( the Keats biopic Bright Star ) , and 14 years since her sexually explicit thriller In The Cut almost did for her career . Now she is having a Norma Desmond moment : she 's still big , it 's just the pictures that got small . Movies , she says , have become conservative cash cows . " The really clever people used to do film . Now , the really clever people do television . I 'd been feeling , in the film world , that if you come up with ideas , and you share them , the first concern is : how is the audience going to react ? " Television has reinvigorated her . " Cinema in Australia and New Zealand has become much more mainstream . It 's broad entertainment , broad sympathy . It 's just not my kind of thing . As a goal , to make money out of entertaining does n't inspire me . But in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the audience . It feels like creative freedom . " The first series of Top Of The Lake , co-written and directed by Campion for television , was visually stunning ( set on New Zealand 's breathtaking South Island ) , thrilling ( you never knew where you were going in this police procedural about a missing girl ) , superbly acted ( Elisabeth Moss as the troubled detective Robin Griffin is terrific ) and brilliantly bonkers ( the commune of **27;223;TOOLONG women led by Holly Hunter 's guru takes some beating on the fruit-loop front ) . Take Twin Peaks , transplant it to the New Zealand wilderness , chuck in an extra smattering of crazy , and you 've got Top Of The Lake . Four years later , the New Zealand director has completed a second series , and it is every bit as compelling . The location has now switched to Sydney , and Hunter 's commune has been replaced by a group of dysfunctional young men addicted to pornography . Hunter is gone and Nicole Kidman has arrived , playing the adoptive mother @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by Campion 's own daughter , Alice Englert ) . And , of course , there is another horrible crime at the heart of it -- this time , trafficking . We meet at a hotel in Soho , central London . Before the interview , Campion 's publicist tells me that the film-maker is worried -- she just wants to talk about her work , no personal stuff -- but it soon emerges that the two are indistinguishable . Within six minutes , Campion has taken me through her menopause , explaining why it was a positive experience , even if women her age are regarded as invisible and " unfuckable " . Campion , aged 63 , is every bit as unusual as her work : tall , tactile , slightly awkward , with long , white hair and a striking face . She is warm and open , with an easy manner that makes you feel you have known her for decades -- though that may be because I have , through her films . I saw her first movie , Sweetie , nearly 30 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ two sisters . It was as funny as it was upsetting , and full of what became the director 's signature touches : naturalistic ( no background soundtrack ) , dreamily surrealistic ( everybody reacts a beat slower than they should ) , scatological ( one of the girls takes a pee in the driveway ) , nonjudgmental . Which is the stranger -- or the more normal -- of the two sisters ? Who knows ? Despite a privileged upbringing , Campion has always sided with outsiders . Her maternal great-grandfather was a successful shoe manufacturer and her mother , Edith , inherited money with which she and Campion 's father , Richard , set up New Zealand 's first national theatre , with Edith acting and Richard directing . Campion says it sounds much grander than it was . Her parents struggled to make ends meet and the theatre was downsized to a company that toured schools . Edith ( a fine actress who makes a memorable appearance as an English teacher in her daughter 's adaptation of An Angel At My Table , the autobiography of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ illness . " She was a beautiful woman , but seriously depressed . She tried to kill herself five times . Her parents died of alcoholism . They were both dead by the time she was nine , so she really did n't know how to be a mother . " Like Frame , Edith underwent extensive electroconvulsive therapy . Her father , Campion says , was relentlessly cheerful . " He was a bit of a dolphin . He had a good time no matter what , jumping about in the waves . " She grew up with her sister Anna , who is 18 months older and also a writer and film-maker . For many years , the two were ferociously competitive , but are now close . Their brother Michael , born when Jane was seven , went on to be a successful businessman , who works in recruitment . At 25 , I ended up with no boyfriends . It was the best thing . The energy that was tormenting me was going to be my friend When she was a teenager , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Film-makers were my companions and they helped me grow up . I was so inspired . Bu ? uel , Wenders , Cassavetes : they made me feel connected to the world . " Why did she feel disconnected ? " I had no energy or direction . " She was paralysingly inhibited . She studied anthropology at university in Wellington , but had no sense of what she wanted to do with her life . All she hoped was that she would meet a man who would whisk her away and marry her . " I remember thinking that women did n't really have jobs , they were mothers or supported their husbands . " She says she spent so much time trying to please men , and laughs at her patheticness . Then she discovered art and found a sense of purpose , attending Chelsea School of Art in London and the Sydney College of the Arts . She realised that all the energy she had bottled up or wasted on men could be put to good use . " The best thing that happened to me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ thought ' Oh shit ' , but it was absolutely the best thing . At 25 , I started to realise that the energy that was tormenting me was going to become my friend . I worked 18 hours a day . I think I 'd been quite hidden until that point . I was prepared to do things that would n't work , but at least I would try . " Campion , who was made a dame last year , soon felt stymied by art and turned to film . In 1980 , she made her first short , Tissues -- about a father arrested for child molestation -- which had a tissue in every scene . She went to the Australian Film , Television and Radio School in Sydney , where she made more short films . There were so many stories she wanted to tell , about her kind of people , " people who fall off the frontier of our society " -- the weird , the uncomfortable , the irrational . When she started out , Campion considered herself primarily a writer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ chance of getting anybody else to do them , so I had to become a director of my own work . I never thought I wanted to be a film director . I 'm not actually ambitious per se in terms of a career ; I 'm just ambitious to achieve the stories and dramas that I 've come up with . " Mental illness is a recurrent theme in her work , with the line between sanity and insanity often blurred . In the wonderful An Angel At My Table , Campion tells the story of how Frame came to be sectioned and subjected to repeated electroconvulsive therapy ; she only narrowly avoids being lobotomised . Frame , misdiagnosed as schizophrenic , is insecure , neurotic , ill , but she is never portrayed as simply mad . Campion 's work is also profoundly female : I have never seen films so immersed in the everyday experience of women . There is a scene where the newly menstrual Frame dumps a homemade sanitary towel in the graveyard of a poet she idolises . You barely heard about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bloodied byproduct . " I wanted to bring my interests and concerns into the cinema , " she explains . " Psychologically , women are forced to look at the world through men 's eyes . I wanted to put the other point of view : what it felt like to be a woman expressing yourself , being free , doing your human stuff in what is a pretty patriarchal society . " It 's amazing how often we see women peeing in your films , I say . She laughs . " I do love to remind people that we are animals , because people get disconnected from their animal reality . " To start with , she claims she was a useless director . " I was always trying to please everybody . " That 's funny , I say , because I read that you always tell actors to stop trying to please the audience . " That 's right . And that 's what I had to learn to do . I 'm just going to do my job really well , ask people what @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ trying to please everybody . " Campion jointly won the prestigious Palme d'Or at Cannes ; 24 years on , she remains the only female winner What made her realise it did n't work ? " They did n't have any respect for me . People respect what works . When they see you 've done your homework , you 're capable of making a great set and organising everything to make this thing good , they appreciate it . They must know you 're the boss -- they need you to tell them what 's going to happen next . And you do n't need to excuse yourself for that . " Has she had to be competitive to be a director ? Well , she says , slightly embarrassed , in many ways she is a gentle , sharing , caring , yoga-loving new-age hippy , but , yes , in others she is extremely competitive . I tell her I play tennis with a couple of directors and they always think they are right on the line calls . Would she challenge every call @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ co-director on Top Of The Lake , Ariel Kleiman , we are really competitive as well . We ca n't help that . It 's part of our nature , but we know it and laugh about it . " How does it express itself ? " I want to be better than him . I do n't actually think I am . We both want to be better than the other . " She adores Kleiman , an Australian writer-director who is only 32 . " I see Ariel 's gifts -- his elegance , his shots and structure . He 's got this mathematical brain . " She pauses . " He 's better at shots than me , " she says through gritted teeth . " He is a real samurai , a genius . We might be competitive , but we love and support each other . " Campion 's first two films , Sweetie and An Angel At My Table , were lauded by the critics . Sweetie was entered into a competition at the Cannes film festival in 1989 ; a year @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Lion ( runner-up prize ) at the Venice film festival . Winning an Oscar for best original screenplay for The Piano . Photograph : Lee Celano/Reuters But it was The Piano , released in 1993 , that made her famous . A baroque romance about a piano-playing mute ( Hunter ) who falls in love with a retired sailor ( Harvey Keitel ) , the film should have been a small indie gem , but turned into a huge mainstream hit . In 1994 , Campion won an Oscar for best original screenplay and was nominated for best director ; Hunter won best actress , while Anna Paquin , who played Hunter 's daughter , won best supporting actress at the age of 11 . In 1993 , Campion also jointly won the prestigious Palme d'Or at Cannes ; 24 years on , much to her disgust , she remains the only female winner . Campion had married Colin Englert , second unit director on The Piano , a year earlier , in 1992 . A few weeks after her triumph at Cannes , their son Jasper @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ days later , a trauma that Campion has carried with her for many years . I ask if she is depressive , like her mother . " No . I have been sad when bad things have happened . One would expect to be unhappy when a baby dies , and I certainly was . But I just do n't have that mental makeup where you would get long-term depression . I 'm lucky . " She admits that she has struggled with anxieties and compulsions over the years . " I have been addressing my own madness for some time with yoga and meditation -- just becoming aware of it is a big job . " What kind of madness ? " Everyday madness . The things you get into your head , going round and round . And believing your thoughts . " Are those thoughts rooted in reality ? " They are often just descriptions of anxiety . I 've actually got a very level system . You probably feel that just sitting near me . " I do : at times , she @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Top Of The Lake ( GJ 's hair is long and white like hers , though Campion says the character is based on her late friend , the Indian philosopher UG Krishnamurti ) . Does her anxiety worry her ? " It worried me when I became compulsive , yes . I could n't stop thinking about things -- feeling hurt or worried . I have been romantically compulsive in my life . I do n't think I 'm like that any more . I ended up going to see a therapist for a long time , and that was fantastically helpful . " Extreme love is a leitmotif in her work , I say ; that scene in The Piano when Keitel spots a hole in Hunter 's stocking and runs a finger over it is one of the sexiest in the movies . " Well , certainly , The Piano is in the romantic genre . They say that being a romantic is like a disease in its most extreme form . " A year after Jasper died , Campion 's daughter Alice was born @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with her sister Anna , starring Kate Winslet and Keitel ; and an adaptation of Henry James 's The Portrait Of A Lady with Kidman . In 2003 , she made her most controversial film , an adaptation of the Susanna Moore thriller In The Cut , about a teacher who embarks on a dangerous affair . Like The Piano , it was erotic , but this was more explicit -- and from a female perspective , of course . So when we see somebody spying on a man having oral sex , the voyeur is a woman ( Meg Ryan , cast against romcom type ) and she is enjoying it . But most critics slated In The Cut as radical porn-chic . In the Observer , Philip French wrote that this was a " feminist director engaging with once taboo subjects " , and that " for all its air of breaking new ground , it was ploughing some familiar furrows " . " That was a pretty big disaster in terms of the way it was reviewed , " Campion says . Did she think the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ What was really hard about that was that it was mostly reviewed by males , and they hated the female point of view and the way the women were talking about them as objects . Actually , I do think it is a good movie . There are certain women who tell me it 's one of their favourite films . " Meg Ryan and Jennifer Jason Leigh in 2003 's In The Cut . Photograph : Allstar/PATHE After In The Cut she took an enforced break from film-making . " I was going to take a break anyway , " she says , " but I found it really easy , because when you have a failure , nobody rings you up or wants you to do anything . I just wanted to be with my kid a bit more and spent four years being more of a mother . I actually had to convince her that , ' I am your mother . ' " Really ? She smiles . " A little bit . She did come with me often when I was working , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is her nanny . " By then , Campion and Englert had divorced , and Alice developed an aversion to school . " She 's a very gentle girl . I said to her one day , ' Come on , get up , let 's go , I 'm going to drop you off at school . ' She said , ' I 'm not going and you 'd better get used to it . I 'm not going to school ever again . ' " And she was as good as her word . So for four years Campion home-schooled Alice , devising a curriculum that matched her daughter 's interests , hiring tutors for Shakespeare and poetry . Campion says she loved that time . Nicole Kidman and Campion 's daughter Alice Englert in the new series of Top Of The Lake . Photograph : See-Saw Films , Holdings Pty Ltd At the age of 13 , Alice told her mother that she wanted to be an actor . By the time she had completed her home schooling , she had not changed her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' " Why ? " I think it 's just that world of always having to live in public a little bit , and having to get the roles . That relationship with power , having to audition . And so many people want to do it . Why do they want to be an actor ? I find that bizarre . Why do n't they want the power ? " Campion suggested she consider university . " Alice said , ' Mum , I 've been to the cafeteria at Sydney University and I do n't like it . ' " She gets the giggles . " I was like , how can you know from the cafe ? But she was just really sure she did n't like that kind of learning . " Alice 's character in Top Of The Lake is very troubled , and I ask Campion if working with her made her rethink their relationship . Not really , she says -- there is nothing conflicted about their relationship . " I think having a daughter is the best thing that has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " She trails off .

It 's a fear for a lot of women , but it can also be freeing Rewatching Campion 's films , it is fascinating to see her characters grow up . When she started out , she was telling stories about pubescent girls ; now , they are about mothers and post-menopausal women . They might be older , but they still embrace their strangeness . Campion is particularly fond of her eccentric nymphomaniac character , Bunny , in the first series of Top Of The Lake : Bunny pays men to have sex with her , promising it wo n't ever take longer than seven minutes , because if it did , she might fall in love . ( Bunny is played by Genevieve Lemon , who starred in Sweetie @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to cut that scene , Campion says , but she would n't let them . " They said , ' It 's really off-putting . ' I do n't think it 's off-putting . The whole reason I 'm doing this series is to include things like this ! " she says joyously . " I really enjoy those little side tracks . To be able to talk about a character like that , who is so romantically obsessive that they ca n't spend very long with a person , otherwise they 'll get a fixation . It is what I happen to know -- to fall hopelessly in love . Yeah . I think a lot of people related to that extreme version Bunny has . " She refers to the women of the commune in the first series as " the unfuckable " . " I think they 're all gorgeous , but there are things about being an older woman . As you get to menopause , you 're almost invisible . It 's a fear for a lot of women coming up to that time @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ menopausal in my 40s . There are loads of myths about it .

" When I was really young , pre-10 , I was so happy -- a kid , just doing stuff . Then you realise there 's something going on that you should be part of , or you should try to be part of . Then you work out that you do n't actually have to be part of that . Loads of people are n't . " She pauses . " I actually feel happier than ever . I still feel like a child in my heart . But I 've had to work for that . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate structure. Additionally, the phrase 'got satisfaction out of dressing myself and William up in the most bizarre outfits' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, which are key characteristics of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The Duke of Cambridge and Prince Harry have spoken of their enduring regret over their last conversation with their mother , disclosing they had been desperate to rush off the telephone and get back to playing instead . The Duke and Prince , who were 15 and 12 when Diana , Princess of Wales , died in a car crash , said they had been busy at Balmoral when she called them , and had no notion that the short phone call would be their last . The conversation , the Duke said , still weighs on his mind " quite , quite heavily " , while Prince Harry admitted he would regret it for the rest of his life . The brothers spoke as part of a one-off documentary for television , in which they detail their warm memories of their fun-loving mother .

Speaking in an interview due to broadcast on ITV on Monday , the Duke described his last conversation with her , while she was in Paris and he was at Balmoral with his father , the Prince of Wales , and the wider Royal family . All I do remember is probably , you know , regretting for the rest of my life how short the phone call was " At the time Harry and I were running around minding our own business , you know , playing with our cousins and having a very good time , " he said . Prince Harry continued : " As a kid I never enjoyed speaking to my parents on the phone . " And @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rather than speaking to each other , because of just the way the situation the divorce was . " And the phone rang and off he William went to go and speak to her sort of for five minutes .

" If I 'd known now obviously what was going to happen I would n't have been so blas ? about it and everything else . " But that phone call sticks in my mind quite , quite heavily . " He told an on-screen interviewer that he did recall what she had said to him , but chose not to disclose it .

" It was her speaking from Paris @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said , but all I do remember is probably , you know , regretting for the rest of my life how short the phone call was . " And if I 'd known that that was the last time I was going to speak to my mother the things I would have said to her . " He added : " Looking back on it now , it 's incredibly hard . I have to sort of deal with that for the rest of my life . " Not knowing that that was the last time I was going to speak to my mum , and how differently that conversation would have panned out if I 'd had even the slightest inkling that her life was going to be taken that night .

The brothers , now aged 35 and 32 , have given the most intimate insight yet into life @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their family photo album for the nation . In a 90-minute documentary , featuring her closest family and friends , the Duke and Prince will bring Diana 's memory to life for those too young to remember her , detailing her efforts to give them a normal childhood , her final letters and phone call , and her love of pranks . They share her own home photograph album , found earlier this year and containing pictures of the princes as children , as the Duke speaks of how he felt her presence as a source of comfort before his 2011 wedding to Catherine Middleton . It will reveal how their parents ' divorce left them constantly travelling between houses , her death was like an " earthquake " , and how the Queen was at one point so concerned about her that she took friends aside . Detailing the extraordinary tricks Diana would play on them , including a memorable episode including supermodels at the top of the stairs , the Duke tells how he keeps her memory alive with his own young children , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " grandmother . Introducing the film at a Kensington Palace screening last week , the Duke said he and his younger brother had never spoken so frankly in public before , explaining that the 20th anniversary of Diana 's death in August this year felt like an " appropriate time to open up a bit more " . Duke of Cambridge and Prince HarryCredit : The Duke of Cambridge & Prince Harry Saying he hoped the film would encapsulate the woman he would like the public to know , he said : " We wo n't be doing this again . " We wo n't speak as openly and publicly about her again , because we feel that hopefully this film will provide the other side : from her closest family and friends , that you might not have heard before , from those who knew her best , and those who want to protect her memory and want to remind people of the person she was .

" Sitting down with Prince Harry to look at photographs and talk about memories , he added , had been " cathartic " , he said : " It 's been at first quite daunting opening up so much to camera , but going through this process has been quite healing as well . " As well as her sons , the film also features Diana 's brother Earl Spencer , who speaks frankly about how the bitter divorce of their parents affected her , Sir Elton John , who campaigned with her and sang at her funeral , and a host of friends including William Van Straubenzee , Lady Carolyn Warren and Anne Beckwith-Smith . The Duke and Prince have also taken part in a BBC documentary , due out later this year and focusing specifically on the week following the Parisian car crash . They last month marked Diana 's birthday by rededicating her grave at Althorp , the Spencer family home , and will commemorate the anniversary @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her legacy to live on in our work , and we feel this is an appropriate way of doing that , " said the Duke . " To remind not only the people who knew her , but also you have to remember this is 20 years ago now that she died and there are people who do n't even know about her . " We want to share the happiness and the warmth of her and what she was like as a person with a wider audience , and so came the documentary . " I hope you enjoy it . " Princes William and Harry taking part in the documentaryCredit : ITV The documentary opens with the Duke and Prince leafing though Diana 's photograph album , only recently rediscovered at home and full of picture of them as children . Prince Harry , who stars in many of them , told William : " Part of me never really wanted to look at them and part of me was waiting to find the right time where we could @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ him on his first day of school , while another captures a beach holiday , where he is hugged tightly by Diana . She would just engulf you and squeeze you as tight as possible , " he recalled , speaking to camera . " And being as short as I was then , there was no escape , you were there and you were there for as long as she wanted to hold you . " Even talking about it now I can feel the hugs that she used to give us and I miss that . I miss that feeling , I miss that part of a family , I miss having that mother to be able to give you those hugs and give you that compassion that I think everybody needs . " The Queen , the documentary reveals , was so concerned about Diana in her low points that she took a friend aside quietly at Balmoral to check on her welfare . Harry Herbert , whose father was the 7th Earl of Carnarvon and racing manager @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ talk to the Queen about it at Balmoral . " The Queen wanted to talk to me about it because she was so worried about Diana .

" And the Queen wanted to know how was Diana feeling , and was it as bad as it was ? " It was a sad discussion , a sad moment really because that was everything at its worst . " But he said , he had visited Diana at home in Kensington Palace when she was struggling , and even then her face would " light up " when her sons came " thundering " into her room . Before the trauma of Diana 's death , Prince William and Prince Harry endured the fall-out from her divorce from the Prince of Wales , finalised in 1996 after a long and very public battle between their parents . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the two of us were bouncing between the two of them and we probably did n't ... we never saw our mother enough or we never saw our father enough , " Prince Harry said . " You know there was a lot there was a lot of travelling and a lot of fights on the back seat with my brother , of which I would win . " So there was all of that to contend with . And I do n't pretend that we 're the only people to have to deal with that . But it was , it was an interesting way of growing up . " Princes William and Harry : Our mother Diana was so loving 01:09 Exploring Diana 's main causes , from HIV awareness to homelessness , the film also reveals her final , incomplete , challenge : landmines . Prince Harry tells how he found a " whole series " of letters , around a month ago ; dated August 31 and waiting for her to sign them . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " he youngest son said . " She was writing letters to certain people to say right , , this is what needs to happen in order for this whole sort of tidal wave to change . " And it 's only recently over the years that I 've actually really understood the effect that she was having in those areas and on an international scale as well . " In the film , he speaks with two young victims of landmines in Bosnia , telling them they had seen his mother more recently than he had . She had spent time with them after learning they had been injured by mines , going on holiday to Paris just a few weeks later while Prince Harry was at Balmoral . In a light-hearted moment , Prince Harry speaks with mock-fury about the outfits he was compelled to wear as a child , saying he would love to ask his mother why she chose them . The two young boys were regularly photographed in an array of elaborate and old-fashioned clothes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ got satisfaction out of dressing myself and William up in the most bizarre outfits , " he said . " Normally matching . It was weird shorts and , like , little sort of shiny shoes with the old clip on . Looking back at the photos it just makes me laugh . " I just think ' how could you do that to us ' . " One by one , he said , the Princess began to rebel , with William first refusing to match his brother and then Harry taking a stand . " So I like to think that she had great fun in dressing us up , " he said . " I 'm sure that was n't it , but I sure as hell am going to dress my kids up the same way . " Diana , her sons said , tried valiantly to teach them about a normal life , despite the privileges of their upbringing . " She made the decision that no matter what , despite all the difficulties of growing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was going to ensure that both of us had as normal life as possible , " said Prince Harry . " And if that means taking us for a burger every now and then , or sneaking us into the cinema , or driving through the country lanes with the roof down of her old-school BMW listening to Enya I think it was ... All of that was part of her being a mum " . If she strove for a normal life , Diana 's love of pranks was anything but ordinary . Described as a " total kid through and through " by Prince Harry , the late princess ' , she attempted to embarrass her sons at every opportunity , from sending rude cards to them at school to roping in supermodels to help her . Prince William told how he once returned home , aged 12 or 13 , to find pin-ups Cindy Crawford , Christy Turlington and Naomi Campbell waiting for him at the top of the stairs . " I went bright red and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fumbled , and I think I pretty much fell down the stairs on the way up , " he said " I was completely and utterly sort of awestruck . But that was a very funny memory . That 's lived with me forever . " At other time , he said , she would post him " the rudest cards you can imagine " to boarding school , leaving him in fear of being spotted by a teacher . Prince Harry recalled how she would smuggle sweets into their socks when she came to watch them playing football , saying they would walk back to their tuck box with their clothes " bulging " with treats . If she worried about her sons following in her footsteps , it appears she did not show it . Prince Harry said : " One of her mottos to me was : ' you can be as naughty as you want , just do n't get caught ' . If she excelled as a mother , Diana would have been an " absolute nightmare @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he discloses how he tries to keep her memory alive . Saying he is " constantly " mentioning " Granny Diana " at home , he has also mounted more photographs so that Prince George and Princess Charlotte learn about her . " It 's hard because obviously Catherine did n't know her , so she can not really provide that level of detail , " he said . " So I do regularly put George or Charlotte to bed , talk about her and just try and remind them that there are two grandmothers - there were two grandmothers - in their lives . " Asked how she would be like had she lived to enjoy the next stage of her family life , he added : " She 'd be a nightmare grandmother , absolute nightmare . She 'd love the children to bits , but she 'd be an absolute nightmare . " She 'd come and go and she 'd come in probably at bath time , cause an amazing amount of scene , bubbles everywhere , bathwater all over the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ make as much time and effort with Charlotte and George as I can because I realise that these early years particularly are crucial for children , and having seen , you know , what she did for us . " Diana 's death , Prince William said , was like an " earthquake " , running through their lives with such shockwaves that it took a while to sink in . " There 's not many days that go by that I do n't think of her , you know - sometimes sad , sometimes very positively , " he said . " You know , I have a smile every now and again when someone says something and I think that 's exactly what she would have said , or she would have enjoyed that comment . " So they always live with you people you lose like that . And my mother lives with me every day . " Prince Harry acknowledge it " has been hard and it will continue to be hard " , added : " There @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wish that she was still around , and we wonder what kind of a mother she would be now , and what kind of a public role she would have , and what a difference she would be making . " You know , and of course as a son I would say this , she was the best mum in the world . " The programme , ' Diana , Our Mother : Her Life and Legacy , will be broadcast on on Monday at 9pm on ITV. |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pulled out of pursuing a deal' involves 'pulled out of' followed by a gerund, but it lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and it does not clearly convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a decision to stop pursuing something, which does not align with the defined properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Mourinho admitted De Gea was contacted for ' a long time ' - presumably by Real Madrid - and United were prepared to gauge how eager the Spain goalkeeper was to leave the club . De Gea 's ? 29million move to Madrid collapsed on deadline day two years ago due to a delay in Real filing paperwork and he signed a new four-year contract with United the following week . Mourinho now believes it is ' very difficult ' for De Gea to leave in the future and claimed the Champions League winners pulled out of pursuing a deal for the 26-year-old . " I can guarantee he 's not going this season , " Mourinho said . " That I can , and my feeling is it will be very difficult for him to go . " He 's a very honest boy , very straight , and he was contacted for a long time . The club was closed , then we open because I always have this feeling of when a player has a desire to go I do n't like to stop players to go , because in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , if you want to move and they want to move . " And so we open it and then they decide to close and I do n't think the feeling from him is really , really good and I see him really happy and focused and working better than ever so for me , so 100% he stays with us . " Mourinho also believes Sergio Romero has improved De Gea . " I 'm impressed with him but also with David , " he added . " I think the best thing that could happen to David was the way Romero played last season , because until then David was clearly a safe man , a first choice and after what Romero did last season , David thinks he 's training in another way and David is much better now than before .

All that was missing was Jim Bowen on the pre-match announcements to say " this is what you could have won " . A Valley Parade date with Sunderland was the sort of glittering award on offer had City won the play-off final . Instead , their first return to home soil since that Wembley heartache was a strictly pre-season affair . The most glamorous opposition so far but still a friendly . The chance of rubbing shoulders with such illustrious company restricted to a Saturday in mid-July . Like that speed boat that Jim would always insist on dangling in front of the unlucky losers from the West Midlands . Still , it was an entertaining and useful exercise as the former Premier League opponents demonstrated what City could expect if and when they can make the jump . Sunderland , certainly in the first half , played with a pace and power that the hosts struggled to contain . The corresponding weekend last year saw a chastening 4-1 defeat at Burnley 's hands . Stuart McCall said this week how much they had taken out of that . So @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on board after Simon Grayson 's side illustrated why they are tipped to push strongly for an immediate return to the top flight . They may have lost a dozen players since relegation , including the jewel in the goalkeeping crown Jordan Pickford , but there is still a depth of talent which City found tough to resist . The significant jump in class of opposition was made abundantly clear inside the first eight minutes as Sunderland raced into a two-goal lead . But it does help when you 've got players with an ? 8million price tag in the line-up . Last year it was Andre Gray blasting holes in the Bantams . This time Jeremain Lens did the early damage . Soft defending made his job easier for the first as he was gifted far too much room to cross and pick out Joshua Maja to score in the bottom corner . But the Dutchman 's solo effort for the second was pure class , holding off Nat Knight-Percival 's challenge before lofting the ball over keeper Rouven Sattelmaier like a sweet nine @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ threatened to be a long afternoon . However much you dismiss pre-season scorelines as irrelevant , nobody wants a trouncing on home turf . Friendlies are fertile ground for the rumour mongers and fans in the main stand spent most of the opening half craning their necks to have a glimpse at Edin Rahic 's interesting companion in the chairman 's box . Within minutes , he had been unofficially elevated to manager-in-waiting or the club 's director of football ! The truth was far less fanciful . McClaren was at the game as a guest of Sunderland and was genning up on their team ahead of Sky TV duty for the Championship opener against his old club Derby . Still , it added to the suggestion that things were not all that they seem on the surface . Certainly the Gordon Greer episode has baffled many . A deal that seemed to be 99 per cent done -- the terms had been agreed -- then disappeared into thin air to leave all sides scratching their heads . Whatever the reasoning , the manner @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one-two hardly strengthened the case to reject such an established central defender . They then conceded a third goal on the stroke of half-time as Didier N'Dong 's shot proved too hot for Sattelmaier and Billy Jones tapped in the rebound . Shay McCartan had City 's best response but home attacks had been limited . With Alex Jones rested due to a tight groin , to go with Charlie Wyke 's ongoing absence , Dominic Poleon hardly got a sniff against the imposing Lamine Kone . Yet City came back out with a determination to ' win ' the second half at least . For the first ten minutes , they were penned in once more -- but then the tide began to turn . City saw more of the ball and used it more effectively , Jake Reeves again catching the eye in possession and Alex Gilliead offering some encouraging moments on the right flank . McCartan created their penalty out of nothing with a quick acceleration that brought a clumsy response from a combination of N'Dong and Donald Love . Tony @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Germanic celebration music -- so beloved of the chairman , if not by so many others -- belted out once more across Valley Parade . Ruiter made a superb save to deny Paul Taylor , using right arm and some of his face to keep out the substitute 's goal-bound attempt . But City still had the final say when Gilliead 's cross was swept in at the near post by Jordan Gibson , who promptly became the first trialist to ever kiss the club badge as he wheeled off in delight .

Jared Kushner received a round of applause from his father-in-law , President Trump , via his new Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders . ' I know that the president was very proud of Jared for voluntarily going to the Hill and being very transparent with every interaction that he 's had , ' said Huckabee Sanders on Air Force One Monday as the president voyaged to West Virginia to give a speech . The president 's son-in-law and top aide denied colluding with the Russians during the 2016 campaign , releasing an 11-page statement Monday morning , before heading to Capitol Hill to talk to Senate investigators . ' Let me be very clear : I did not collude with Russia nor do I know of anyone else in the campaign who did so , ' Kushner said then . Kushner continued : ' I have not relied on Russian funds for my businesses . And I have been fully transparent in providing all requested information . ' Kushner spoke , without taking questions from the press , after spending more than two hours hours Monday morning answering questions from Senate Intelligence committee @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The president was happy with Kushner 's performance . ' He thought Jared did a great job and was very glad that he was able to go through that process and lay everything out , and I think show the members of that committee , as well as everybody else what a witch hunt and hoax his whole things is , and we 're gon na continue pushing forward and focus on things the American people actually care about , ' Huckabee Sanders said . ' And I do n't think Russia 's really it , ' she added . The press secretary also told reporters that she was n't sure if Kushner and Trump talked after Kushner gave his statement at the White House , but the president ' thought he did a great job . ' Kushner also used the adjective to describe his own experience . ' It was great . I answered as many as they had , ' Kushner said as left a closed meeting in the Senate 's Hart office building . That was all he said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the notoriously tight-lipped top advisor to President Trump after meeting with a bank of Intelligence staffers behind closed doors .

At the White House , lauding the father-in-law who made him a key confidante and installed him in Washington , Kushner said : ' Donald Trump had a better message and ran a smarter campaign , and that is why he won . Suggesting otherwise ridicules those who voted for him .

His most recent form revealed more than 100 contacts , and his statement Monday said he had had ' hundreds ' of calls , emails , and messages from abroad during the campaign .

' He is communicating through secret back channels with agents of the Russian government . We all know it . Why does everyone in the White House have all these connections to Russia ?

Although he did n't take an oath before answering questions , it is against the law to give false information to Congress .

In a new revelation about talk of setting up direct line of communication with the Kremlin , Kushner says the idea was to communicate with Russian ' generals ' about Syria , but the idea got abandoned when Moscow did n't provide use of its secure facilities .

Senior Advisor to the President Jared Kushner makes a statement from at the White House after being interviewed by the Senate Intelligence Committee in Washington on July 24 , 2017 But Kushner says their contact was so limited he could n't even recall Kislyak 's name -- and says he has a post-election email to substantiate his lack of familiarity .

' I have tried to be fully transparent with regard to the filing of my SF-86 form , above and beyond what is required . Hopefully , this puts these matters to rest . ' Kislyak meeting at the Mayflower Kushner first came under scrutiny for a previously undisclosed meeting with Russia 's leading US diplomat . He did not list a December rendezvous with Kislyak at Trump Tower on forms he turned into the government as part of the security clearance process . Kushner says at the event he met multiple ambassadors . ' With all the ambassadors , including Mr. Kislyak , we shook hands , exchanged brief pleasantries and I thanked them for attending the event and said I hoped they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a fresh approach to America 's foreign policy , " Kushner wrote . Again desrbiging the ambassadors as a group rather than singling out Russia 's , he wrote : ' The ambassadors also expressed interest in creating a positive relationship should we win the election . Each exchange lasted less than a minute , ' he said . ' Some gave me their business cards and invited me to lunch at their embassies . I never took them up on any of these invitations and that was the extent of the interactions , ' he wrote . His statement did not reveal whether he got Kislyak 's card . He left off another meeting during the transition with a Russian banker , too , Sergey Gorkov , and a June 2016 meeting at Trump Tower that the president 's eldest son , Don Jr , set up with a Russian lawyer who wanted to discuss adoption . Kushner also provides an account of the Gorkov meeting , which has drawn scrutiny because of the oligarch 's Putin connection as the head of a state-owned bank @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ because Kislyak , who suggested it , had been ' so insistent ' about it . He said it lasted 20 to 25 minutes . Russian Ambassador to the U.S. Sergei Kislyak arrives at the State Department in Washington to meet with Undersecretary of State Thomas Shannon Jared Kushner , US President Donald Trump 's senior adviser and son-in-law , arrives on Capitol Hill in Washington , DC , on July 24 , 2017 , to testify before the Senate intelligence committee as part of the probe into alleged Russian meddling in last year 's US presidential vote . Married to Trump 's eldest daughter Ivanka , Kushner will testify in closed-door meetings before the Senate intelligence committee on Monday , according to his lawyer , and the House panel on Tuesday 25 minutes with Kremlin-linked Russian banker When he finally met Gorkov , ' He introduced himself and gave me two gifts - one was a piece of art from Nvgorod , the village where my grandparents were from in Belarus , and the other was a bag of dirt from that same village . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lawyer Abbe Lowell , cited these gifts as an argument that he was not concealing the meeting . ' ' Any notion that I tried to conceal this meeting or that I took it thinking it was in my capacity as a businessman is false . In fact , I gave my assistant these gifts to formally register them with the transition office , ' he wrote . He says Gorkov ' told me a little about his bank ' and ' made some statements about the Russian economy , ' and said he was ' friendly with President Putin . ' Kushner wrote that he ' expressed the same sentiments I had with other foreign officials I met ' but there were ' no specific policies discussed . ' Gorkov 's bank has provided a differing account : that the meeting was to discuss potential business opportunities with Kushner . Bag of dirt The ' bag of dirt ' might seem to be an unusual gift , but might well related to a heroic story of escape from Nazi oppression in Kushner 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , assisted in a daring escape to tunnel out of the Jewish ghetto in Novogrudok , in Belarus , in order to survive and assist other jews . The escape , described by Rae Kushner in an interview , involved removing and hiding dirt , getting work tools and information to plan the escape , the Jerusalem Post reported . Trump 's son thought the woman had dirt on Hillary Clinton that had been provided to her by the Russian government . She did not , the parties involved have said , and the meeting was swiftly concluded . The fourth contact Kushner says he had with a Russian national in the course of the campaign or transition was in April of 2016 . Trump delivered a foreign policy speech at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington on the day in question . Kisylak and Kushner each attended a reception prior to the speech that was hosted by the publisher of the foreign magazine sponsoring the event . Congressional investigators have said they are interested in learning more about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Don Jr were duped into seeing . Trump 's campaign manager at the time , Paul Manafort , was also there . So were four other people , including a Russian-American lobbyist who once served in the Kremlin 's military intelligence division . Kushner 's hand in digital strategy for the campaign had some lawmakers saying they want more answers about whether Russian social media ' trolls ' were connected to Trump 's election efforts . Abbe Lowell , a lawyer for Kushner , said ahead of the meetings that the senior advisor tot he president ' has been and is prepared to voluntarily cooperate and provide whatever information he has on the investigations ' to Congress . Senate Intellignece Committee member Senator Joe Manchin ( D-WV ) steps out of the committee 's secure meeting space to talk on the phone in the Hart Senate Office Building on Capitol Hill July 20 , 2017 in Washington , DC ' He will continue to cooperate and appreciates the opportunity to assist in putting this matter to rest , ' Lowell said . California @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Intelligence panel , said on CBS 's ' Face the Nation ' Sunday that lawyers for Kushner had said they would make him available for two hours so ' we expect this is just going to be the first interview ' of the president 's son in law . Schiff says he intends to probe Kushner on the June 2016 with Veselnitskaya and a separate meeting Kushner had with the top executive of Russia 's state-supported VEB bank . ' We want to know whether those meetings took place , whether other meetings took place , we have a lot of ground to cover , ' Schiff said prior to the release of Kushner 's statement . Kushner denied in the document that he hand any other secret conversations with the Russians . ' Highly skeptical ' he had two phone calls with Kislyak Two calls with Kislyak between April and November of last year that Reuters reported on have not been verified , Kushner said . ' While I participated in thousands of calls during this period , I do not recall any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . ' We have reviewed the phone records available to us and have not been able to identify any calls to any number we know to be associated with Ambassador Kislyak and I am highly skeptical these calls took place . ' As evidence of his lack of familiarity with Kislyak , Kushner references a November email to a Russian-born magazine publisher where he wrote asking for name of the official . The campaign had received a purported congratulatory email from Russian President Vladimir Putin the day after Trump 's historic election . Kushner wanted to check it out , and reached out to the publisher who had helped orgnize Trump 's Mayflower speech . Kushner says he could n't recall the name of Russian ambassador to the U.S. Sergey Kislyak , whom he had met , after the campaign got a post-election congratulatory email purportedly from Russian President Vladimir Putin ' In fact , on November 9 , the day after the election , I could not even remember the name of the Russian Ambassador , ' Kushner wrote . In fact , on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could not even remember the name of the Russian Ambassador . ' Rather than employing an internet search , Kushner , who ran Trump 's digital operations , decided to reach out to a contact . After the campaign got the Putin email , Kushner thought the best way to verify it ' would be to ask the only contact I recalled meeting from the Russian government , which was the Ambassador I had met months earlier , ' Kushner wrote . So he sent the publisher Dimitri Simes , publisher of the National Interest magazine , an email asking , ' What is the name of the Russian ambassador ? ' Kushner wrote . ' Donald Trump Jr and former Trump campaign chair Paul Manafort have been invited to speak to the Senate Judiciary Committee this week about their dealings with the Russians . The two men will sit for private interviews first , although the GOP chairman of the committee , Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley , has said they will eventually testify in the open . No ' secret back channel ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ letter denies any effort to set up a ' secret back channel ' with the Kremlin , but offers new details on a topic that has drawn the interest of congressional investigators . He writes that Kislyak told him during the transition of a desire to ' convey information from what he called his " generals . " ' Kislyak wanted to ' provide information that would help inform the new administration ' in regard to Syria , where the U.S. and Russia have been at cross-purposes . ' He said the generals could not easily come to the US to convey this information and he asked if there was a secure line in the transition office to conduct a conversation , ' according to Kushner , who said either Gen. Mike Flynn or he said such secure lines did n't exist . Kushner then floated the extraordinary idea of using a Russian embassy channel -- rather than a U.S. channel -- to receive the information . ' I believed developing a thoughtful approach on Syria was a very high priority given the ongoing humanitarian crisis @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ channel at his embassy we could use where they would be comfortable transmitting the information they wanted to relay to General Flynn , ' according to Kushner . But Kislyak did n't go for it . ' The Ambassador said that would not be possible and so we all agreed that we would receive this information after the Inauguration , ' Kushner said . ' Nothing else occurred . I did not suggest a " secret back channel . " ' ' Witch hunt ' President Trump has deemed the government investigations into his campaign 's conduct a ' witch hunt . ' On Sunday , he tweeted : ' As the phony Russian Witch Hunt continues , two groups are laughing at this excuse for a lost election taking hold , Democrats and Russians . ' He invoked Senate Democrats ' leader this morning as he claimed that ' after 1 year of investigation with Zero evidence being found , Chuck Schumer just stated that " Democrats should blame ourselves , not Russia . " ' Trump 's tweet was in reference @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ agenda . ' When you lose to somebody who has 40 percent popularity , you do n't blame other things -- Comey , Russia -- you blame yourself , ' Schumer said . ' So what did we do wrong ? People did n't know what we stood for , just that we were against Trump . And still believe that . ' Trump Jr will be interviewed by the Senate Judiciary Committee as part of the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 elections As the probe heats up , Donald Trump Jr has boosted his legal team by hiring a new lawyer with experience battling Congress . The president 's son has added Karina Lynch of the law firm Williams and Jensen , a DC-based firm with more than thirty years experience in congressional investigations . A federal special counsel is also investigating charges levied by U.S. intelligence agencies that Russia meddled in the 2016 U.S. election . That probe has reportedly expanded to include the president 's finances and the transactions of the business that he still owns and has been managed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ new lawyer has extensive experience on Capitol Hill . She has worked for Senator Susan Collins , a Republican from Maine , the on Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations and has served as investigative counsel to Grassley . Both senators are involved in the upper chamber 's Russia investigations . White House Senior Advisor Jared Kushner I am voluntarily providing this statement , submitting documents , and sitting for interviews in order to shed light on issues that have been raised about my role in the Trump for President Campaign and during the transition period . I am not a person who has sought the spotlight . First in my business and now in public service , I have worked on achieving goals , and have left it to others to work on media and public perception . Because there has been a great deal of conjecture , speculation , and inaccurate information about me , I am grateful for the opportunity to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump for President Campaign Before joining the administration , I worked in the private sector , building and managing companies . My experience was in business , not politics , and it was not my initial intent to play a large role in my father-in-law 's campaign when he decided to run for President . However , as the campaign progressed , I was called on to assist with various tasks and aspects of the campaign , and took on more and more responsibility . Over the course of the primaries and general election campaign , my role continued to evolve . I ultimately worked with the finance , scheduling , communications , speechwriting , polling , data and digital teams , as well as becoming a point of contact for foreign government officials . All of these were tasks that I had never performed on a campaign previously . When I was faced with a new challenge , I would reach out to contacts , ask advice , find the right person to manage the specific challenge , and work with that person @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I was lucky to work with some incredibly talented people along the way , all of whom made significant contributions toward the campaign 's ultimate success . Our nimble culture allowed us to adjust to the ever-changing circumstances and make changes on the fly as the situation warranted . I share this information because these actions should be viewed through the lens of a fast-paced campaign with thousands of meetings and interactions , some of which were impactful and memorable and many of which were not . It is also important to note that a campaign 's success starts with its message and its messenger . Donald Trump had the right vision for America and delivered his message perfectly . The results speak for themselves . Not only did President Trump defeat sixteen skilled and experienced primary opponents and win the presidency - he did so spending a fraction of what his opponent spent in the general election . He outworked his opponent and ran one of the best campaigns in history using both modern technology and traditional methods to bring his message to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ When it became apparent that my father-in-law was going to be the Republican nominee for President , as normally happens , a number of officials from foreign countries attempted to reach out to the campaign . My father-in-law asked me to be a point of contact with these foreign countries . These were not contacts that I initiated , but , over the course of the campaign , I had incoming contacts with people from approximately 15 countries . To put these requests in context , I must have received thousands of calls , letters and emails from people looking to talk or meet on a variety of issues and topics , including hundreds from outside the United States . While I could not be responsive to everyone , I tried to be respectful of any foreign government contacts with whom it would be important to maintain an ongoing , productive working relationship were the candidate to prevail . To that end , I called on a variety of people with deep experience , such as Dr Henry Kissinger , for advice on policy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ should engage , and what messaging would resonate . In addition , it was typical for me to receive 200 or more emails a day during the campaign . I did not have the time to read every one , especially long emails from unknown senders or email chains to which I was added at some later point in the exchange . With respect to my contacts with Russia or Russian representatives during the campaign , there were hardly any . The first that I can recall was at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington , DC in April 2016 . This was when then candidate Trump was delivering a major foreign policy speech . Doing the event and speech had been my idea , and I oversaw its execution . I arrived at the hotel early to make sure all logistics were in order . After that , I stopped into the reception to thank the host of the event , Dimitri Simes , the publisher of the bi-monthly foreign policy magazine , The National Interest , who had done a great @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ group had created the guest list and extended the invitations for the event . He introduced me to several guests , among them four ambassadors , including Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak . With all the ambassadors , including Mr Kislyak , we shook hands , exchanged brief pleasantries and I thanked them for attending the event and said I hoped they would like candidate Trump 's speech and his ideas for a fresh approach to America 's foreign policy . The ambassadors also expressed interest in creating a positive relationship should we win the election . Each exchange lasted less than a minute - some gave me their business cards and invited me to lunch at their embassies . I never took them up on any of these invitations and that was the extent of the interactions . Reuters news service has reported that I had two calls with Ambassador Kislyak at some time between April and November of 2016 . While I participated in thousands of calls during this period , I do not recall any such calls with the Russian Ambassador @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us and have not been able to identify any calls to any number we know to be associated with Ambassador Kislyak and I am highly skeptical these calls took place . A comprehensive review of my land line and cell phone records from the time does not reveal those calls . I had no ongoing relationship with the Ambassador before the election , and had limited knowledge about him then . In fact , on November 9 , the day after the election , I could not even remember the name of the Russian Ambassador . When the campaign received an email purporting to be an official note of congratulations from President Putin , I was asked how we could verify it was real . To do so I thought the best way would be to ask the only contact I recalled meeting from the Russian government , which was the Ambassador I had met months earlier , so I sent an email asking Mr Simes , ' What is the name of the Russian ambassador ? ' Through my lawyer , I have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ supposedly occurred or the phone number at which I supposedly reached , or was reached by , Ambassador Kislyak . The journalist refused to provide any corroborating evidence that they occurred . The only other Russian contact during the campaign is one I did not recall at all until I was reviewing documents and emails in response to congressional requests for information . In June 2016 , my brother-in-law , Donald Trump Jr asked if I was free to stop by a meeting on June 9 at 3pm . The campaign was headquartered in the same building as his office in Trump Tower , and it was common for each of us to swing by the other 's meetings when requested . He eventually sent me his own email changing the time of the meeting to 4pm . That email was on top of a long back and forth that I did not read at the time . As I did with most emails when I was working remotely , I quickly reviewed on my iPhone the relevant message that the meeting would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ my memory that this was calendared as ' Meeting : Don Jr . Jared Kushner ' . No one else was mentioned . I arrived at the meeting a little late . When I got there , the person who has since been identified as a Russian attorney was talking about the issue of a ban on US adoptions of Russian children . I had no idea why that topic was being raised and quickly determined that my time was not well-spent at this meeting . Reviewing emails recently confirmed my memory that the meeting was a waste of our time and that , in looking for a polite way to leave and get back to my work , I actually emailed an assistant from the meeting after I had been there for ten or so minutes and wrote ' Can u pls call me on my cell ? Need excuse to get out of meeting ' . I had not met the attorney before the meeting nor spoken with her since . I thought nothing more of this short meeting until it came @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or recall this email exchange before it was shown to me by my lawyers when reviewing documents for submission to the committees . No part of the meeting I attended included anything about the campaign , there was no follow up to the meeting that I am aware of , I do not recall how many people were there ( or their names ) , and I have no knowledge of any documents being offered or accepted . Finally , after seeing the email , I disclosed this meeting prior to it being reported in the press on a supplement to my security clearance form , even if that was not required as meeting the definitions of the form . There was one more possible contact that I will note . On October 30 , 2016 , I received a random email from the screenname ' Guccifer400 ' . This email , which I interpreted as a hoax , was an extortion attempt and threatened to reveal candidate Trump 's tax returns and demanded that we send him 52 bitcoins in exchange for not publishing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ attention of a US Secret Service agent on the plane we were all travelling on and asked what he thought . He advised me to ignore it and not to reply - which is what I did . The sender never contacted me again . To the best of my recollection , these were the full extent of contacts I had during the campaign with persons who were or appeared to potentially be representatives of the Russian government . Transition Contacts with Foreign Persons The transition period after the election was even more active than the campaign . Starting on election night , we began to receive an incredible volume of messages and invitations from well-wishers in the United States and abroad . Dozens of messages came from foreign officials seeking to set up foreign leader calls and create lines of communication and relationships with what would be the new administration . During this period , I recall having over fifty contacts with people from over fifteen countries . Two of those meetings were with Russians , neither of which I solicited @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ received a request for a meeting from the Russian Ambassador . As I mentioned before , previous to receiving this request , I could not even recall the Russian Ambassador 's name , and had to ask for the name of the individual I had seen at the Mayflower Hotel almost seven months earlier . In addition , far from being urgent , that meeting was not set up for two weeks - on December 1 . The meeting occurred in Trump Tower , where we had our transition office , and lasted twenty- thirty minutes . Lieutenant General Michael Flynn ( Ret ) , who became the President 's National Security Advisor , also attended . During the meeting , after pleasantries were exchanged , as I had done in many of the meetings I had and would have with foreign officials , I stated our desire for a fresh start in relations . Also , as I had done in other meetings with foreign officials , I asked Ambassador Kislyak if he would identify the best person ( whether the Ambassador or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who had contact with his President . The fact that I was asking about ways to start a dialogue after Election Day should of course be viewed as strong evidence that I was not aware of one that existed before Election Day . The Ambassador expressed similar sentiments about relations , and then said he especially wanted to address US policy in Syria , and that he wanted to convey information from what he called his ' generals ' . He said he wanted to provide information that would help inform the new administration . He said the generals could not easily come to the US to convey this information and he asked if there was a secure line in the transition office to conduct a conversation . General Flynn or I explained that there were no such lines . I believed developing a thoughtful approach on Syria was a very high priority given the ongoing humanitarian crisis , and I asked if they had an existing communications channel at his embassy we could use where they would be comfortable transmitting the information they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said that would not be possible and so we all agreed that we would receive this information after the Inauguration . Nothing else occurred . I did not suggest a ' secret back channel ' . I did not suggest an on-going secret form of communication for then or for when the administration took office . I did not raise the possibility of using the embassy or any other Russian facility for any purpose other than this one possible conversation in the transition period . We did not discuss sanctions . Approximately a week later , on December 6 , the Embassy asked if I could meet with the Ambassador on December 7 . I declined . They then asked if I could meet on December 6 , I declined again . They then asked when the earliest was that I could meet . I declined these requests because I was working on many other responsibilities for the transition . He asked if he could meet my assistant instead and , to avoid offending the Ambassador , I agreed . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reported that the Ambassador had requested that I meet with a person named Sergey Gorkov who he said was a banker and someone with a direct line to the Russian President who could give insight into how Putin was viewing the new administration and best ways to work together . I agreed to meet Mr Gorkov because the Ambassador has been so insistent , said he had a direct relationship with the President , and because Mr Gorkov was only in New York for a couple days . I made room on my schedule for the meeting that occurred the next day , on December 13 . The meeting with Mr Gorkov lasted twenty to twenty-five minutes . He introduced himself and gave me two gifts - one was a piece of art from Nvgorod , the village where my grandparents were from in Belarus , and the other was a bag of dirt from that same village . ( Any notion that I tried to conceal this meeting or that I took it thinking it was in my capacity as a businessman is false . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ formally register them with the transition office ) . After that , he told me a little about his bank and made some statements about the Russian economy . He said that he was friendly with President Putin , expressed disappointment with US-Russia relations under President Obama and hopes for a better relationship in the future . As I did at the meeting with Ambassador Kislyak , I expressed the same sentiments I had with other foreign officials I met . There were no specific policies discussed . We had no discussion about the sanctions imposed by the Obama Administration . At no time was there any discussion about my companies , business transactions , real estate projects , loans , banking arrangements or any private business of any kind . At the end of the short meeting , we thanked each other and I went on to other meetings . I did not know or have any contact with Mr Gorkov before that meeting , and I have had no reason to connect with him since . To the best @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I had during the transition with persons who were or appeared to potentially be representatives of the Russian government . Disclosure of Contacts on My Security Clearance Form There has been a good deal of misinformation reported about my SF-86 form . As my attorneys and I have previously explained , my SF-86 application was prematurely submitted due to a miscommunication and initially did not list any contacts ( not just with Russians ) with foreign government officials . Here are some facts about that form and the efforts I have made to supplement it . In the week before the Inauguration , amid the scramble of finalizing the unwinding of my involvement from my company , moving my family to Washington , completing the paper work to divest assets and resign from my outside positions and complete my security and financial disclosure forms , people at my New York office were helping me find the information , organize it , review it and put it into the electronic form . They sent an email to my assistant in Washington , communicating that the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interpreted that message as meaning that the entire form was completed . At that point , the form was a rough draft and still had many omissions including not listing any foreign government contacts and even omitted the address of my father-in-law ( which was obviously well known ) . Because of this miscommunication , my assistant submitted the draft on January 18 , 2017 . That evening , when we realized the form had been submitted prematurely , we informed the transition team that we needed to make changes and additions to the form . The very next day , January 19 , 2017 , we submitted supplemental information to the transition , which confirmed receipt and said they would immediately transmit it to the FBI . The supplement disclosed that I had ' numerous contacts with foreign officials ' and that we were going through my records to provide an accurate and complete list . I provided a list of those contacts in the normal course , before my background investigation interview and prior to any inquiries or media reports about my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ omitted only contacts with Russians . That is not the case . In the accidental early submission of the form , all foreign contacts were omitted . The supplemental information later disclosed over one hundred contacts from more than twenty countries that might be responsive to the questions on the form . These included meetings with individuals such as Jordan 's King Abdullah II , Israel 's Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu , Mexico 's Secretary of Foreign Affairs , Luis Videgaray Caso and many more . All of these had been left off before . Over the last six months , I have made every effort to provide the FBI with whatever information is needed to investigate my background . In addition , my attorneys have explained that the security clearance process is one in which supplements are expected and invited . The form itself instructs that , during the interview , the information in the document can be ' updated , clarified , and explained ' as part of the security clearance process . A good example is the June 9 meeting . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of that meeting I have provided , I did not remember the meeting and certainly did not remember it as one with anyone who had to be included on an SF-86 . When documents reviewed for production in connection with committee requests reminded me that meeting had occurred , and because of the language in the email chain that I then read for the first time , I included that meeting on a supplement . I did so even though my attorneys were unable to conclude that the Russian lawyer was a representative of any foreign country and thus fell outside the scope of the form . This supplemental information was also provided voluntarily , well prior to any media inquiries , reporting or request for this information , and it was done soon after I was reminded of the meeting . As I have said from the very first media inquiry , I am happy to share information with the investigating bodies . I have shown today that I am willing to do so and will continue to cooperate as I have nothing to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has been a great deal of speculation and conjecture about my contacts with any officials or people from Russia . I have disclosed these contacts and described them as fully as I can recall . The record and documents I am providing will show that I had perhaps four contacts with Russian representatives out of thousands during the campaign and transition , none of which were impactful in any way to the election or particularly memorable . I am very grateful for the opportunity to set the record straight . I also have tried to provide context for my role in the campaign , and I am proud of the candidate that we supported , of the campaign that we ran , and the victory that we achieved . It has been my practice not to appear in the media or leak information in my own defense . I have tried to focus on the important work at hand and serve this President and this country to the best of my abilities . I hope that through my answers to questions , written statements @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ entirety of my limited contacts with Russian representatives during the campaign and transition . I did not collude , nor know of anyone else in the campaign who colluded , with any foreign government . I had no improper contacts . I have not relied on Russian funds to finance my business activities in the private sector . I have tried to be fully transparent with regard to the filing of my SF-86 form , above and beyond what is required . Hopefully , this puts these matters to rest . The revelation that Trump Jr , Kushner and Manafort met with Veselnitskaya in hopes of obtaining damaging information on Hillary Clinton added a new dimension to the the allegations that the Trump campaign collaborated with the Kremlin to boost their odds of winning the White House . The Kremlin has denied any interference , and Trump says his campaign did not collude with Moscow . After the president mentioned his power to pardon last week , a legal debate erupted over the executive 's ability to shield himself from criminal charges . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump does retain authority to authorize pardons , they 've since said it 's an unnecessary topic of exploration since the president , his family and his associates have committed no crimes . In an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity on July 11 , Trump Jr did say , ' In retrospect , I probably would have done things a little differently . ' Since he received no information on Clinton from the Kremlin , the president 's legal and communications team says his actions did not rise to the level of collusion . Lynch , the new lawyer for Trump Jr , is already said to have set a private meeting between Trump Jr and the Senate Judiciary Committee , ensuring that he will not have to testify publicly on Wednesday , according to Fox Business Network . Trump Jr is also represented by Alan Futerfas , a criminal defense attorney with 25 years experience , who has frequently represented clients in cyber-security cases .

Jared Kushner received a round of applause from his father-in-law , President Trump , via his new Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders . ' I know that the president was very proud of Jared for voluntarily going to the Hill and being very transparent with every interaction that he 's had , ' said Huckabee Sanders on Air Force One Monday as the president voyaged to West Virginia to give a speech . The president 's son-in-law and top aide denied colluding with the Russians during the 2016 campaign , releasing an 11-page statement Monday morning , before heading to Capitol Hill to talk to Senate investigators . ' Let me be very clear : I did not collude with Russia nor do I know of anyone else in the campaign who did so , ' Kushner said then .

' And I do n't think Russia 's really it , ' she added . The press secretary also told reporters that she was n't sure if Kushner and Trump talked after Kushner gave his statement at the White House , but the president ' thought he did a great job . ' Kushner also used the adjective to describe his own experience . ' It was great . I answered as many as they had , ' Kushner said as left a closed meeting in the Senate 's Hart office building . That was all he said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the notoriously tight-lipped top advisor to President Trump after meeting with a bank of Intelligence staffers behind closed doors .

At the White House , lauding the father-in-law who made him a key confidante and installed him in Washington , Kushner said : ' Donald Trump had a better message and ran a smarter campaign , and that is why he won . Suggesting otherwise ridicules those who voted for him .

His most recent form revealed more than 100 contacts , and his statement Monday said he had had ' hundreds ' of calls , emails , and messages from abroad during the campaign .

' He is communicating through secret back channels with agents of the Russian government . We all know it . Why does everyone in the White House have all these connections to Russia ?

Although he did n't take an oath before answering questions , it is against the law to give false information to Congress .

' Kislyak meeting at the Mayflower Kushner first came under scrutiny for a previously undisclosed meeting with Russia 's leading US diplomat . He did not list a December rendezvous with Kislyak at Trump Tower on forms he turned into the government as part of the security clearance process . Kushner says at the event he met multiple ambassadors . ' With all the ambassadors , including Mr. Kislyak , we shook hands , exchanged brief pleasantries and I thanked them for attending the event and said I hoped they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a fresh approach to America 's foreign policy , " Kushner wrote . Again desrbiging the ambassadors as a group rather than singling out Russia 's , he wrote : ' The ambassadors also expressed interest in creating a positive relationship should we win the election . Each exchange lasted less than a minute , ' he said . ' Some gave me their business cards and invited me to lunch at their embassies . I never took them up on any of these invitations and that was the extent of the interactions , ' he wrote . His statement did not reveal whether he got Kislyak 's card . He left off another meeting during the transition with a Russian banker , too , Sergey Gorkov , and a June 2016 meeting at Trump Tower that the president 's eldest son , Don Jr , set up with a Russian lawyer who wanted to discuss adoption . Kushner also provides an account of the Gorkov meeting , which has drawn scrutiny because of the oligarch 's Putin connection as the head of a state-owned bank @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ because Kislyak , who suggested it , had been ' so insistent ' about it . He said it lasted 20 to 25 minutes . Russian Ambassador to the U.S. Sergei Kislyak arrives at the State Department in Washington to meet with Undersecretary of State Thomas Shannon Jared Kushner , US President Donald Trump 's senior adviser and son-in-law , arrives on Capitol Hill in Washington , DC , on July 24 , 2017 , to testify before the Senate intelligence committee as part of the probe into alleged Russian meddling in last year 's US presidential vote . Married to Trump 's eldest daughter Ivanka , Kushner will testify in closed-door meetings before the Senate intelligence committee on Monday , according to his lawyer , and the House panel on Tuesday 25 minutes with Kremlin-linked Russian banker When he finally met Gorkov , ' He introduced himself and gave me two gifts - one was a piece of art from Nvgorod , the village where my grandparents were from in Belarus , and the other was a bag of dirt from that same village . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lawyer Abbe Lowell , cited these gifts as an argument that he was not concealing the meeting . ' ' Any notion that I tried to conceal this meeting or that I took it thinking it was in my capacity as a businessman is false . In fact , I gave my assistant these gifts to formally register them with the transition office , ' he wrote . He says Gorkov ' told me a little about his bank ' and ' made some statements about the Russian economy , ' and said he was ' friendly with President Putin . ' Kushner wrote that he ' expressed the same sentiments I had with other foreign officials I met ' but there were ' no specific policies discussed . ' Gorkov 's bank has provided a differing account : that the meeting was to discuss potential business opportunities with Kushner . Bag of dirt The ' bag of dirt ' might seem to be an unusual gift , but might well related to a heroic story of escape from Nazi oppression in Kushner 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , assisted in a daring escape to tunnel out of the Jewish ghetto in Novogrudok , in Belarus , in order to survive and assist other jews . The escape , described by Rae Kushner in an interview , involved removing and hiding dirt , getting work tools and information to plan the escape , the Jerusalem Post reported . Trump 's son thought the woman had dirt on Hillary Clinton that had been provided to her by the Russian government . She did not , the parties involved have said , and the meeting was swiftly concluded . The fourth contact Kushner says he had with a Russian national in the course of the campaign or transition was in April of 2016 . Trump delivered a foreign policy speech at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington on the day in question . Kisylak and Kushner each attended a reception prior to the speech that was hosted by the publisher of the foreign magazine sponsoring the event . Congressional investigators have said they are interested in learning more about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Don Jr were duped into seeing . Trump 's campaign manager at the time , Paul Manafort , was also there . So were four other people , including a Russian-American lobbyist who once served in the Kremlin 's military intelligence division . Kushner 's hand in digital strategy for the campaign had some lawmakers saying they want more answers about whether Russian social media ' trolls ' were connected to Trump 's election efforts . Abbe Lowell , a lawyer for Kushner , said ahead of the meetings that the senior advisor tot he president ' has been and is prepared to voluntarily cooperate and provide whatever information he has on the investigations ' to Congress . Senate Intellignece Committee member Senator Joe Manchin ( D-WV ) steps out of the committee 's secure meeting space to talk on the phone in the Hart Senate Office Building on Capitol Hill July 20 , 2017 in Washington , DC ' He will continue to cooperate and appreciates the opportunity to assist in putting this matter to rest , ' Lowell said . California @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Intelligence panel , said on CBS 's ' Face the Nation ' Sunday that lawyers for Kushner had said they would make him available for two hours so ' we expect this is just going to be the first interview ' of the president 's son in law . Schiff says he intends to probe Kushner on the June 2016 with Veselnitskaya and a separate meeting Kushner had with the top executive of Russia 's state-supported VEB bank . ' We want to know whether those meetings took place , whether other meetings took place , we have a lot of ground to cover , ' Schiff said prior to the release of Kushner 's statement . Kushner denied in the document that he hand any other secret conversations with the Russians . ' Highly skeptical ' he had two phone calls with Kislyak Two calls with Kislyak between April and November of last year that Reuters reported on have not been verified , Kushner said . ' While I participated in thousands of calls during this period , I do not recall any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . ' We have reviewed the phone records available to us and have not been able to identify any calls to any number we know to be associated with Ambassador Kislyak and I am highly skeptical these calls took place . ' As evidence of his lack of familiarity with Kislyak , Kushner references a November email to a Russian-born magazine publisher where he wrote asking for name of the official . The campaign had received a purported congratulatory email from Russian President Vladimir Putin the day after Trump 's historic election . Kushner wanted to check it out , and reached out to the publisher who had helped orgnize Trump 's Mayflower speech . Kushner says he could n't recall the name of Russian ambassador to the U.S. Sergey Kislyak , whom he had met , after the campaign got a post-election congratulatory email purportedly from Russian President Vladimir Putin ' In fact , on November 9 , the day after the election , I could not even remember the name of the Russian Ambassador , ' Kushner wrote . In fact , on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could not even remember the name of the Russian Ambassador . ' Rather than employing an internet search , Kushner , who ran Trump 's digital operations , decided to reach out to a contact . After the campaign got the Putin email , Kushner thought the best way to verify it ' would be to ask the only contact I recalled meeting from the Russian government , which was the Ambassador I had met months earlier , ' Kushner wrote . So he sent the publisher Dimitri Simes , publisher of the National Interest magazine , an email asking , ' What is the name of the Russian ambassador ? ' Kushner wrote . ' Donald Trump Jr and former Trump campaign chair Paul Manafort have been invited to speak to the Senate Judiciary Committee this week about their dealings with the Russians . The two men will sit for private interviews first , although the GOP chairman of the committee , Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley , has said they will eventually testify in the open . No ' secret back channel ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ letter denies any effort to set up a ' secret back channel ' with the Kremlin , but offers new details on a topic that has drawn the interest of congressional investigators . He writes that Kislyak told him during the transition of a desire to ' convey information from what he called his " generals . " ' Kislyak wanted to ' provide information that would help inform the new administration ' in regard to Syria , where the U.S. and Russia have been at cross-purposes . ' He said the generals could not easily come to the US to convey this information and he asked if there was a secure line in the transition office to conduct a conversation , ' according to Kushner , who said either Gen. Mike Flynn or he said such secure lines did n't exist . Kushner then floated the extraordinary idea of using a Russian embassy channel -- rather than a U.S. channel -- to receive the information . ' I believed developing a thoughtful approach on Syria was a very high priority given the ongoing humanitarian crisis @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ channel at his embassy we could use where they would be comfortable transmitting the information they wanted to relay to General Flynn , ' according to Kushner . But Kislyak did n't go for it . ' The Ambassador said that would not be possible and so we all agreed that we would receive this information after the Inauguration , ' Kushner said . ' Nothing else occurred . I did not suggest a " secret back channel . " ' ' Witch hunt ' President Trump has deemed the government investigations into his campaign 's conduct a ' witch hunt . ' On Sunday , he tweeted : ' As the phony Russian Witch Hunt continues , two groups are laughing at this excuse for a lost election taking hold , Democrats and Russians . ' He invoked Senate Democrats ' leader this morning as he claimed that ' after 1 year of investigation with Zero evidence being found , Chuck Schumer just stated that " Democrats should blame ourselves , not Russia .

' When you lose to somebody who has 40 percent popularity , you do n't blame other things -- Comey , Russia -- you blame yourself , ' Schumer said . ' So what did we do wrong ? People did n't know what we stood for , just that we were against Trump . And still believe that . ' Trump Jr will be interviewed by the Senate Judiciary Committee as part of the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 elections As the probe heats up , Donald Trump Jr has boosted his legal team by hiring a new lawyer with experience battling Congress . The president 's son has added Karina Lynch of the law firm Williams and Jensen , a DC-based firm with more than thirty years experience in congressional investigations . A federal special counsel is also investigating charges levied by U.S. intelligence agencies that Russia meddled in the 2016 U.S. election . That probe has reportedly expanded to include the president 's finances and the transactions of the business that he still owns and has been managed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ new lawyer has extensive experience on Capitol Hill . She has worked for Senator Susan Collins , a Republican from Maine , the on Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations and has served as investigative counsel to Grassley . Both senators are involved in the upper chamber 's Russia investigations . White House Senior Advisor Jared Kushner I am voluntarily providing this statement , submitting documents , and sitting for interviews in order to shed light on issues that have been raised about my role in the Trump for President Campaign and during the transition period . I am not a person who has sought the spotlight . First in my business and now in public service , I have worked on achieving goals , and have left it to others to work on media and public perception . Because there has been a great deal of conjecture , speculation , and inaccurate information about me , I am grateful for the opportunity to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump for President Campaign Before joining the administration , I worked in the private sector , building and managing companies . My experience was in business , not politics , and it was not my initial intent to play a large role in my father-in-law 's campaign when he decided to run for President . However , as the campaign progressed , I was called on to assist with various tasks and aspects of the campaign , and took on more and more responsibility . Over the course of the primaries and general election campaign , my role continued to evolve . I ultimately worked with the finance , scheduling , communications , speechwriting , polling , data and digital teams , as well as becoming a point of contact for foreign government officials . All of these were tasks that I had never performed on a campaign previously . When I was faced with a new challenge , I would reach out to contacts , ask advice , find the right person to manage the specific challenge , and work with that person @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I was lucky to work with some incredibly talented people along the way , all of whom made significant contributions toward the campaign 's ultimate success . Our nimble culture allowed us to adjust to the ever-changing circumstances and make changes on the fly as the situation warranted . I share this information because these actions should be viewed through the lens of a fast-paced campaign with thousands of meetings and interactions , some of which were impactful and memorable and many of which were not . It is also important to note that a campaign 's success starts with its message and its messenger . Donald Trump had the right vision for America and delivered his message perfectly . The results speak for themselves . Not only did President Trump defeat sixteen skilled and experienced primary opponents and win the presidency - he did so spending a fraction of what his opponent spent in the general election . He outworked his opponent and ran one of the best campaigns in history using both modern technology and traditional methods to bring his message to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ When it became apparent that my father-in-law was going to be the Republican nominee for President , as normally happens , a number of officials from foreign countries attempted to reach out to the campaign . My father-in-law asked me to be a point of contact with these foreign countries . These were not contacts that I initiated , but , over the course of the campaign , I had incoming contacts with people from approximately 15 countries . To put these requests in context , I must have received thousands of calls , letters and emails from people looking to talk or meet on a variety of issues and topics , including hundreds from outside the United States . While I could not be responsive to everyone , I tried to be respectful of any foreign government contacts with whom it would be important to maintain an ongoing , productive working relationship were the candidate to prevail . To that end , I called on a variety of people with deep experience , such as Dr Henry Kissinger , for advice on policy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ should engage , and what messaging would resonate . In addition , it was typical for me to receive 200 or more emails a day during the campaign . I did not have the time to read every one , especially long emails from unknown senders or email chains to which I was added at some later point in the exchange . With respect to my contacts with Russia or Russian representatives during the campaign , there were hardly any . The first that I can recall was at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington , DC in April 2016 . This was when then candidate Trump was delivering a major foreign policy speech . Doing the event and speech had been my idea , and I oversaw its execution . I arrived at the hotel early to make sure all logistics were in order . After that , I stopped into the reception to thank the host of the event , Dimitri Simes , the publisher of the bi-monthly foreign policy magazine , The National Interest , who had done a great @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ group had created the guest list and extended the invitations for the event . He introduced me to several guests , among them four ambassadors , including Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak . With all the ambassadors , including Mr Kislyak , we shook hands , exchanged brief pleasantries and I thanked them for attending the event and said I hoped they would like candidate Trump 's speech and his ideas for a fresh approach to America 's foreign policy . The ambassadors also expressed interest in creating a positive relationship should we win the election . Each exchange lasted less than a minute - some gave me their business cards and invited me to lunch at their embassies . I never took them up on any of these invitations and that was the extent of the interactions . Reuters news service has reported that I had two calls with Ambassador Kislyak at some time between April and November of 2016 . While I participated in thousands of calls during this period , I do not recall any such calls with the Russian Ambassador @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us and have not been able to identify any calls to any number we know to be associated with Ambassador Kislyak and I am highly skeptical these calls took place . A comprehensive review of my land line and cell phone records from the time does not reveal those calls . I had no ongoing relationship with the Ambassador before the election , and had limited knowledge about him then . In fact , on November 9 , the day after the election , I could not even remember the name of the Russian Ambassador . When the campaign received an email purporting to be an official note of congratulations from President Putin , I was asked how we could verify it was real . To do so I thought the best way would be to ask the only contact I recalled meeting from the Russian government , which was the Ambassador I had met months earlier , so I sent an email asking Mr Simes , ' What is the name of the Russian ambassador ? ' Through my lawyer , I have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ supposedly occurred or the phone number at which I supposedly reached , or was reached by , Ambassador Kislyak . The journalist refused to provide any corroborating evidence that they occurred . The only other Russian contact during the campaign is one I did not recall at all until I was reviewing documents and emails in response to congressional requests for information . In June 2016 , my brother-in-law , Donald Trump Jr asked if I was free to stop by a meeting on June 9 at 3pm . The campaign was headquartered in the same building as his office in Trump Tower , and it was common for each of us to swing by the other 's meetings when requested . He eventually sent me his own email changing the time of the meeting to 4pm . That email was on top of a long back and forth that I did not read at the time . As I did with most emails when I was working remotely , I quickly reviewed on my iPhone the relevant message that the meeting would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ my memory that this was calendared as ' Meeting : Don Jr . Jared Kushner ' . No one else was mentioned . I arrived at the meeting a little late . When I got there , the person who has since been identified as a Russian attorney was talking about the issue of a ban on US adoptions of Russian children . I had no idea why that topic was being raised and quickly determined that my time was not well-spent at this meeting . Reviewing emails recently confirmed my memory that the meeting was a waste of our time and that , in looking for a polite way to leave and get back to my work , I actually emailed an assistant from the meeting after I had been there for ten or so minutes and wrote ' Can u pls call me on my cell ? Need excuse to get out of meeting ' . I had not met the attorney before the meeting nor spoken with her since . I thought nothing more of this short meeting until it came @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or recall this email exchange before it was shown to me by my lawyers when reviewing documents for submission to the committees . No part of the meeting I attended included anything about the campaign , there was no follow up to the meeting that I am aware of , I do not recall how many people were there ( or their names ) , and I have no knowledge of any documents being offered or accepted . Finally , after seeing the email , I disclosed this meeting prior to it being reported in the press on a supplement to my security clearance form , even if that was not required as meeting the definitions of the form . There was one more possible contact that I will note . On October 30 , 2016 , I received a random email from the screenname ' Guccifer400 ' . This email , which I interpreted as a hoax , was an extortion attempt and threatened to reveal candidate Trump 's tax returns and demanded that we send him 52 bitcoins in exchange for not publishing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ attention of a US Secret Service agent on the plane we were all travelling on and asked what he thought . He advised me to ignore it and not to reply - which is what I did . The sender never contacted me again . To the best of my recollection , these were the full extent of contacts I had during the campaign with persons who were or appeared to potentially be representatives of the Russian government . Transition Contacts with Foreign Persons The transition period after the election was even more active than the campaign . Starting on election night , we began to receive an incredible volume of messages and invitations from well-wishers in the United States and abroad . Dozens of messages came from foreign officials seeking to set up foreign leader calls and create lines of communication and relationships with what would be the new administration . During this period , I recall having over fifty contacts with people from over fifteen countries . Two of those meetings were with Russians , neither of which I solicited @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ received a request for a meeting from the Russian Ambassador . As I mentioned before , previous to receiving this request , I could not even recall the Russian Ambassador 's name , and had to ask for the name of the individual I had seen at the Mayflower Hotel almost seven months earlier . In addition , far from being urgent , that meeting was not set up for two weeks - on December 1 . The meeting occurred in Trump Tower , where we had our transition office , and lasted twenty- thirty minutes . Lieutenant General Michael Flynn ( Ret ) , who became the President 's National Security Advisor , also attended . During the meeting , after pleasantries were exchanged , as I had done in many of the meetings I had and would have with foreign officials , I stated our desire for a fresh start in relations . Also , as I had done in other meetings with foreign officials , I asked Ambassador Kislyak if he would identify the best person ( whether the Ambassador or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who had contact with his President . The fact that I was asking about ways to start a dialogue after Election Day should of course be viewed as strong evidence that I was not aware of one that existed before Election Day . The Ambassador expressed similar sentiments about relations , and then said he especially wanted to address US policy in Syria , and that he wanted to convey information from what he called his ' generals ' . He said he wanted to provide information that would help inform the new administration . He said the generals could not easily come to the US to convey this information and he asked if there was a secure line in the transition office to conduct a conversation . General Flynn or I explained that there were no such lines . I believed developing a thoughtful approach on Syria was a very high priority given the ongoing humanitarian crisis , and I asked if they had an existing communications channel at his embassy we could use where they would be comfortable transmitting the information they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said that would not be possible and so we all agreed that we would receive this information after the Inauguration . Nothing else occurred . I did not suggest a ' secret back channel ' . I did not suggest an on-going secret form of communication for then or for when the administration took office . I did not raise the possibility of using the embassy or any other Russian facility for any purpose other than this one possible conversation in the transition period . We did not discuss sanctions . Approximately a week later , on December 6 , the Embassy asked if I could meet with the Ambassador on December 7 . I declined . They then asked if I could meet on December 6 , I declined again . They then asked when the earliest was that I could meet . I declined these requests because I was working on many other responsibilities for the transition . He asked if he could meet my assistant instead and , to avoid offending the Ambassador , I agreed . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reported that the Ambassador had requested that I meet with a person named Sergey Gorkov who he said was a banker and someone with a direct line to the Russian President who could give insight into how Putin was viewing the new administration and best ways to work together . I agreed to meet Mr Gorkov because the Ambassador has been so insistent , said he had a direct relationship with the President , and because Mr Gorkov was only in New York for a couple days . I made room on my schedule for the meeting that occurred the next day , on December 13 . The meeting with Mr Gorkov lasted twenty to twenty-five minutes . He introduced himself and gave me two gifts - one was a piece of art from Nvgorod , the village where my grandparents were from in Belarus , and the other was a bag of dirt from that same village . ( Any notion that I tried to conceal this meeting or that I took it thinking it was in my capacity as a businessman is false . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ formally register them with the transition office ) . After that , he told me a little about his bank and made some statements about the Russian economy . He said that he was friendly with President Putin , expressed disappointment with US-Russia relations under President Obama and hopes for a better relationship in the future . As I did at the meeting with Ambassador Kislyak , I expressed the same sentiments I had with other foreign officials I met . There were no specific policies discussed . We had no discussion about the sanctions imposed by the Obama Administration . At no time was there any discussion about my companies , business transactions , real estate projects , loans , banking arrangements or any private business of any kind . At the end of the short meeting , we thanked each other and I went on to other meetings . I did not know or have any contact with Mr Gorkov before that meeting , and I have had no reason to connect with him since . To the best @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I had during the transition with persons who were or appeared to potentially be representatives of the Russian government . Disclosure of Contacts on My Security Clearance Form There has been a good deal of misinformation reported about my SF-86 form . As my attorneys and I have previously explained , my SF-86 application was prematurely submitted due to a miscommunication and initially did not list any contacts ( not just with Russians ) with foreign government officials . Here are some facts about that form and the efforts I have made to supplement it . In the week before the Inauguration , amid the scramble of finalizing the unwinding of my involvement from my company , moving my family to Washington , completing the paper work to divest assets and resign from my outside positions and complete my security and financial disclosure forms , people at my New York office were helping me find the information , organize it , review it and put it into the electronic form . They sent an email to my assistant in Washington , communicating that the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interpreted that message as meaning that the entire form was completed . At that point , the form was a rough draft and still had many omissions including not listing any foreign government contacts and even omitted the address of my father-in-law ( which was obviously well known ) . Because of this miscommunication , my assistant submitted the draft on January 18 , 2017 . That evening , when we realized the form had been submitted prematurely , we informed the transition team that we needed to make changes and additions to the form . The very next day , January 19 , 2017 , we submitted supplemental information to the transition , which confirmed receipt and said they would immediately transmit it to the FBI . The supplement disclosed that I had ' numerous contacts with foreign officials ' and that we were going through my records to provide an accurate and complete list . I provided a list of those contacts in the normal course , before my background investigation interview and prior to any inquiries or media reports about my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ omitted only contacts with Russians . That is not the case . In the accidental early submission of the form , all foreign contacts were omitted . The supplemental information later disclosed over one hundred contacts from more than twenty countries that might be responsive to the questions on the form . These included meetings with individuals such as Jordan 's King Abdullah II , Israel 's Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu , Mexico 's Secretary of Foreign Affairs , Luis Videgaray Caso and many more . All of these had been left off before . Over the last six months , I have made every effort to provide the FBI with whatever information is needed to investigate my background . In addition , my attorneys have explained that the security clearance process is one in which supplements are expected and invited . The form itself instructs that , during the interview , the information in the document can be ' updated , clarified , and explained ' as part of the security clearance process . A good example is the June 9 meeting . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of that meeting I have provided , I did not remember the meeting and certainly did not remember it as one with anyone who had to be included on an SF-86 . When documents reviewed for production in connection with committee requests reminded me that meeting had occurred , and because of the language in the email chain that I then read for the first time , I included that meeting on a supplement . I did so even though my attorneys were unable to conclude that the Russian lawyer was a representative of any foreign country and thus fell outside the scope of the form . This supplemental information was also provided voluntarily , well prior to any media inquiries , reporting or request for this information , and it was done soon after I was reminded of the meeting . As I have said from the very first media inquiry , I am happy to share information with the investigating bodies . I have shown today that I am willing to do so and will continue to cooperate as I have nothing to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has been a great deal of speculation and conjecture about my contacts with any officials or people from Russia . I have disclosed these contacts and described them as fully as I can recall . The record and documents I am providing will show that I had perhaps four contacts with Russian representatives out of thousands during the campaign and transition , none of which were impactful in any way to the election or particularly memorable . I am very grateful for the opportunity to set the record straight . I also have tried to provide context for my role in the campaign , and I am proud of the candidate that we supported , of the campaign that we ran , and the victory that we achieved . It has been my practice not to appear in the media or leak information in my own defense . I have tried to focus on the important work at hand and serve this President and this country to the best of my abilities . I hope that through my answers to questions , written statements @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ entirety of my limited contacts with Russian representatives during the campaign and transition . I did not collude , nor know of anyone else in the campaign who colluded , with any foreign government . I had no improper contacts . I have not relied on Russian funds to finance my business activities in the private sector . I have tried to be fully transparent with regard to the filing of my SF-86 form , above and beyond what is required . Hopefully , this puts these matters to rest . The revelation that Trump Jr , Kushner and Manafort met with Veselnitskaya in hopes of obtaining damaging information on Hillary Clinton added a new dimension to the the allegations that the Trump campaign collaborated with the Kremlin to boost their odds of winning the White House . The Kremlin has denied any interference , and Trump says his campaign did not collude with Moscow . After the president mentioned his power to pardon last week , a legal debate erupted over the executive 's ability to shield himself from criminal charges . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump does retain authority to authorize pardons , they 've since said it 's an unnecessary topic of exploration since the president , his family and his associates have committed no crimes . In an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity on July 11 , Trump Jr did say , ' In retrospect , I probably would have done things a little differently . ' Since he received no information on Clinton from the Kremlin , the president 's legal and communications team says his actions did not rise to the level of collusion . Lynch , the new lawyer for Trump Jr , is already said to have set a private meeting between Trump Jr and the Senate Judiciary Committee , ensuring that he will not have to testify publicly on Wednesday , according to Fox Business Network . Trump Jr is also represented by Alan Futerfas , a criminal defense attorney with 25 years experience , who has frequently represented clients in cyber-security cases .

Jared Kushner received a round of applause from his father-in-law , President Trump , via his new Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders . ' I know that the president was very proud of Jared for voluntarily going to the Hill and being very transparent with every interaction that he 's had , ' said Huckabee Sanders on Air Force One Monday as the president voyaged to West Virginia to give a speech . The president 's son-in-law and top aide denied colluding with the Russians during the 2016 campaign , releasing an 11-page statement Monday morning , before heading to Capitol Hill to talk to Senate investigators . ' Let me be very clear : I did not collude with Russia nor do I know of anyone else in the campaign who did so , ' Kushner said then .

' And I do n't think Russia 's really it , ' she added . The press secretary also told reporters that she was n't sure if Kushner and Trump talked after Kushner gave his statement at the White House , but the president ' thought he did a great job .

At the White House , lauding the father-in-law who made him a key confidante and installed him in Washington , Kushner said : ' Donald Trump had a better message and ran a smarter campaign , and that is why he won . Suggesting otherwise ridicules those who voted for him .

His most recent form revealed more than 100 contacts , and his statement Monday said he had had ' hundreds ' of calls , emails , and messages from abroad during the campaign .

He did not list a December rendezvous with Kislyak at Trump Tower on forms he turned into the government as part of the security clearance process .

He said it lasted 20 to 25 minutes . Russian Ambassador to the U.S. Sergei Kislyak arrives at the State Department in Washington to meet with Undersecretary of State Thomas Shannon Jared Kushner , US President Donald Trump 's senior adviser and son-in-law , arrives on Capitol Hill in Washington , DC , on July 24 , 2017 , to testify before the Senate intelligence committee as part of the probe into alleged Russian meddling in last year 's US presidential vote . Married to Trump 's eldest daughter Ivanka , Kushner will testify in closed-door meetings before the Senate intelligence committee on Monday , according to his lawyer , and the House panel on Tuesday 25 minutes with Kremlin-linked Russian banker When he finally met Gorkov , ' He introduced himself and gave me two gifts - one was a piece of art from Nvgorod , the village where my grandparents were from in Belarus , and the other was a bag of dirt from that same village . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lawyer Abbe Lowell , cited these gifts as an argument that he was not concealing the meeting . ' ' Any notion that I tried to conceal this meeting or that I took it thinking it was in my capacity as a businessman is false . In fact , I gave my assistant these gifts to formally register them with the transition office , ' he wrote . He says Gorkov ' told me a little about his bank ' and ' made some statements about the Russian economy , ' and said he was ' friendly with President Putin . ' Kushner wrote that he ' expressed the same sentiments I had with other foreign officials I met ' but there were ' no specific policies discussed . ' Gorkov 's bank has provided a differing account : that the meeting was to discuss potential business opportunities with Kushner . Bag of dirt The ' bag of dirt ' might seem to be an unusual gift , but might well related to a heroic story of escape from Nazi oppression in Kushner 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , assisted in a daring escape to tunnel out of the Jewish ghetto in Novogrudok , in Belarus , in order to survive and assist other jews . The escape , described by Rae Kushner in an interview , involved removing and hiding dirt , getting work tools and information to plan the escape , the Jerusalem Post reported . Trump 's son thought the woman had dirt on Hillary Clinton that had been provided to her by the Russian government . She did not , the parties involved have said , and the meeting was swiftly concluded . The fourth contact Kushner says he had with a Russian national in the course of the campaign or transition was in April of 2016 . Trump delivered a foreign policy speech at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington on the day in question . Kisylak and Kushner each attended a reception prior to the speech that was hosted by the publisher of the foreign magazine sponsoring the event . Congressional investigators have said they are interested in learning more about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Don Jr were duped into seeing . Trump 's campaign manager at the time , Paul Manafort , was also there . So were four other people , including a Russian-American lobbyist who once served in the Kremlin 's military intelligence division . Kushner 's hand in digital strategy for the campaign had some lawmakers saying they want more answers about whether Russian social media ' trolls ' were connected to Trump 's election efforts . Abbe Lowell , a lawyer for Kushner , said ahead of the meetings that the senior advisor tot he president ' has been and is prepared to voluntarily cooperate and provide whatever information he has on the investigations ' to Congress . Senate Intellignece Committee member Senator Joe Manchin ( D-WV ) steps out of the committee 's secure meeting space to talk on the phone in the Hart Senate Office Building on Capitol Hill July 20 , 2017 in Washington , DC ' He will continue to cooperate and appreciates the opportunity to assist in putting this matter to rest , ' Lowell said . California @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Intelligence panel , said on CBS 's ' Face the Nation ' Sunday that lawyers for Kushner had said they would make him available for two hours so ' we expect this is just going to be the first interview ' of the president 's son in law . Schiff says he intends to probe Kushner on the June 2016 with Veselnitskaya and a separate meeting Kushner had with the top executive of Russia 's state-supported VEB bank . ' We want to know whether those meetings took place , whether other meetings took place , we have a lot of ground to cover , ' Schiff said prior to the release of Kushner 's statement . Kushner denied in the document that he hand any other secret conversations with the Russians . ' Highly skeptical ' he had two phone calls with Kislyak Two calls with Kislyak between April and November of last year that Reuters reported on have not been verified , Kushner said . ' While I participated in thousands of calls during this period , I do not recall any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . ' We have reviewed the phone records available to us and have not been able to identify any calls to any number we know to be associated with Ambassador Kislyak and I am highly skeptical these calls took place . ' As evidence of his lack of familiarity with Kislyak , Kushner references a November email to a Russian-born magazine publisher where he wrote asking for name of the official . The campaign had received a purported congratulatory email from Russian President Vladimir Putin the day after Trump 's historic election . Kushner wanted to check it out , and reached out to the publisher who had helped orgnize Trump 's Mayflower speech . Kushner says he could n't recall the name of Russian ambassador to the U.S. Sergey Kislyak , whom he had met , after the campaign got a post-election congratulatory email purportedly from Russian President Vladimir Putin ' In fact , on November 9 , the day after the election , I could not even remember the name of the Russian Ambassador , ' Kushner wrote . In fact , on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could not even remember the name of the Russian Ambassador . ' Rather than employing an internet search , Kushner , who ran Trump 's digital operations , decided to reach out to a contact . After the campaign got the Putin email , Kushner thought the best way to verify it ' would be to ask the only contact I recalled meeting from the Russian government , which was the Ambassador I had met months earlier , ' Kushner wrote . So he sent the publisher Dimitri Simes , publisher of the National Interest magazine , an email asking , ' What is the name of the Russian ambassador ? ' Kushner wrote . ' Donald Trump Jr and former Trump campaign chair Paul Manafort have been invited to speak to the Senate Judiciary Committee this week about their dealings with the Russians . The two men will sit for private interviews first , although the GOP chairman of the committee , Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley , has said they will eventually testify in the open . No ' secret back channel ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ letter denies any effort to set up a ' secret back channel ' with the Kremlin , but offers new details on a topic that has drawn the interest of congressional investigators . He writes that Kislyak told him during the transition of a desire to ' convey information from what he called his " generals . " ' Kislyak wanted to ' provide information that would help inform the new administration ' in regard to Syria , where the U.S. and Russia have been at cross-purposes . ' He said the generals could not easily come to the US to convey this information and he asked if there was a secure line in the transition office to conduct a conversation , ' according to Kushner , who said either Gen. Mike Flynn or he said such secure lines did n't exist . Kushner then floated the extraordinary idea of using a Russian embassy channel -- rather than a U.S. channel -- to receive the information . ' I believed developing a thoughtful approach on Syria was a very high priority given the ongoing humanitarian crisis @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ channel at his embassy we could use where they would be comfortable transmitting the information they wanted to relay to General Flynn , ' according to Kushner . But Kislyak did n't go for it . ' The Ambassador said that would not be possible and so we all agreed that we would receive this information after the Inauguration , ' Kushner said . ' Nothing else occurred . I did not suggest a " secret back channel . " ' ' Witch hunt ' President Trump has deemed the government investigations into his campaign 's conduct a ' witch hunt . ' On Sunday , he tweeted : ' As the phony Russian Witch Hunt continues , two groups are laughing at this excuse for a lost election taking hold , Democrats and Russians . ' He invoked Senate Democrats ' leader this morning as he claimed that ' after 1 year of investigation with Zero evidence being found , Chuck Schumer just stated that " Democrats should blame ourselves , not Russia . " ' Trump 's tweet was in reference @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ agenda . ' When you lose to somebody who has 40 percent popularity , you do n't blame other things -- Comey , Russia -- you blame yourself , ' Schumer said . ' So what did we do wrong ? People did n't know what we stood for , just that we were against Trump . And still believe that . ' Trump Jr will be interviewed by the Senate Judiciary Committee as part of the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 elections As the probe heats up , Donald Trump Jr has boosted his legal team by hiring a new lawyer with experience battling Congress . The president 's son has added Karina Lynch of the law firm Williams and Jensen , a DC-based firm with more than thirty years experience in congressional investigations . A federal special counsel is also investigating charges levied by U.S. intelligence agencies that Russia meddled in the 2016 U.S. election . That probe has reportedly expanded to include the president 's finances and the transactions of the business that he still owns and has been managed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ new lawyer has extensive experience on Capitol Hill . She has worked for Senator Susan Collins , a Republican from Maine , the on Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations and has served as investigative counsel to Grassley . Both senators are involved in the upper chamber 's Russia investigations . White House Senior Advisor Jared Kushner I am voluntarily providing this statement , submitting documents , and sitting for interviews in order to shed light on issues that have been raised about my role in the Trump for President Campaign and during the transition period . I am not a person who has sought the spotlight . First in my business and now in public service , I have worked on achieving goals , and have left it to others to work on media and public perception . Because there has been a great deal of conjecture , speculation , and inaccurate information about me , I am grateful for the opportunity to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump for President Campaign Before joining the administration , I worked in the private sector , building and managing companies . My experience was in business , not politics , and it was not my initial intent to play a large role in my father-in-law 's campaign when he decided to run for President . However , as the campaign progressed , I was called on to assist with various tasks and aspects of the campaign , and took on more and more responsibility . Over the course of the primaries and general election campaign , my role continued to evolve . I ultimately worked with the finance , scheduling , communications , speechwriting , polling , data and digital teams , as well as becoming a point of contact for foreign government officials . All of these were tasks that I had never performed on a campaign previously . When I was faced with a new challenge , I would reach out to contacts , ask advice , find the right person to manage the specific challenge , and work with that person @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I was lucky to work with some incredibly talented people along the way , all of whom made significant contributions toward the campaign 's ultimate success . Our nimble culture allowed us to adjust to the ever-changing circumstances and make changes on the fly as the situation warranted . I share this information because these actions should be viewed through the lens of a fast-paced campaign with thousands of meetings and interactions , some of which were impactful and memorable and many of which were not . It is also important to note that a campaign 's success starts with its message and its messenger . Donald Trump had the right vision for America and delivered his message perfectly . The results speak for themselves . Not only did President Trump defeat sixteen skilled and experienced primary opponents and win the presidency - he did so spending a fraction of what his opponent spent in the general election . He outworked his opponent and ran one of the best campaigns in history using both modern technology and traditional methods to bring his message to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ When it became apparent that my father-in-law was going to be the Republican nominee for President , as normally happens , a number of officials from foreign countries attempted to reach out to the campaign . My father-in-law asked me to be a point of contact with these foreign countries . These were not contacts that I initiated , but , over the course of the campaign , I had incoming contacts with people from approximately 15 countries . To put these requests in context , I must have received thousands of calls , letters and emails from people looking to talk or meet on a variety of issues and topics , including hundreds from outside the United States . While I could not be responsive to everyone , I tried to be respectful of any foreign government contacts with whom it would be important to maintain an ongoing , productive working relationship were the candidate to prevail . To that end , I called on a variety of people with deep experience , such as Dr Henry Kissinger , for advice on policy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ should engage , and what messaging would resonate . In addition , it was typical for me to receive 200 or more emails a day during the campaign . I did not have the time to read every one , especially long emails from unknown senders or email chains to which I was added at some later point in the exchange . With respect to my contacts with Russia or Russian representatives during the campaign , there were hardly any . The first that I can recall was at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington , DC in April 2016 . This was when then candidate Trump was delivering a major foreign policy speech . Doing the event and speech had been my idea , and I oversaw its execution . I arrived at the hotel early to make sure all logistics were in order . After that , I stopped into the reception to thank the host of the event , Dimitri Simes , the publisher of the bi-monthly foreign policy magazine , The National Interest , who had done a great @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ group had created the guest list and extended the invitations for the event . He introduced me to several guests , among them four ambassadors , including Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak . With all the ambassadors , including Mr Kislyak , we shook hands , exchanged brief pleasantries and I thanked them for attending the event and said I hoped they would like candidate Trump 's speech and his ideas for a fresh approach to America 's foreign policy . The ambassadors also expressed interest in creating a positive relationship should we win the election . Each exchange lasted less than a minute - some gave me their business cards and invited me to lunch at their embassies . I never took them up on any of these invitations and that was the extent of the interactions . Reuters news service has reported that I had two calls with Ambassador Kislyak at some time between April and November of 2016 . While I participated in thousands of calls during this period , I do not recall any such calls with the Russian Ambassador @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us and have not been able to identify any calls to any number we know to be associated with Ambassador Kislyak and I am highly skeptical these calls took place . A comprehensive review of my land line and cell phone records from the time does not reveal those calls . I had no ongoing relationship with the Ambassador before the election , and had limited knowledge about him then . In fact , on November 9 , the day after the election , I could not even remember the name of the Russian Ambassador . When the campaign received an email purporting to be an official note of congratulations from President Putin , I was asked how we could verify it was real . To do so I thought the best way would be to ask the only contact I recalled meeting from the Russian government , which was the Ambassador I had met months earlier , so I sent an email asking Mr Simes , ' What is the name of the Russian ambassador ? ' Through my lawyer , I have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ supposedly occurred or the phone number at which I supposedly reached , or was reached by , Ambassador Kislyak . The journalist refused to provide any corroborating evidence that they occurred . The only other Russian contact during the campaign is one I did not recall at all until I was reviewing documents and emails in response to congressional requests for information . In June 2016 , my brother-in-law , Donald Trump Jr asked if I was free to stop by a meeting on June 9 at 3pm . The campaign was headquartered in the same building as his office in Trump Tower , and it was common for each of us to swing by the other 's meetings when requested . He eventually sent me his own email changing the time of the meeting to 4pm . That email was on top of a long back and forth that I did not read at the time . As I did with most emails when I was working remotely , I quickly reviewed on my iPhone the relevant message that the meeting would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ my memory that this was calendared as ' Meeting : Don Jr . Jared Kushner ' . No one else was mentioned . I arrived at the meeting a little late . When I got there , the person who has since been identified as a Russian attorney was talking about the issue of a ban on US adoptions of Russian children . I had no idea why that topic was being raised and quickly determined that my time was not well-spent at this meeting . Reviewing emails recently confirmed my memory that the meeting was a waste of our time and that , in looking for a polite way to leave and get back to my work , I actually emailed an assistant from the meeting after I had been there for ten or so minutes and wrote ' Can u pls call me on my cell ? Need excuse to get out of meeting ' . I had not met the attorney before the meeting nor spoken with her since . I thought nothing more of this short meeting until it came @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or recall this email exchange before it was shown to me by my lawyers when reviewing documents for submission to the committees . No part of the meeting I attended included anything about the campaign , there was no follow up to the meeting that I am aware of , I do not recall how many people were there ( or their names ) , and I have no knowledge of any documents being offered or accepted . Finally , after seeing the email , I disclosed this meeting prior to it being reported in the press on a supplement to my security clearance form , even if that was not required as meeting the definitions of the form . There was one more possible contact that I will note . On October 30 , 2016 , I received a random email from the screenname ' Guccifer400 ' . This email , which I interpreted as a hoax , was an extortion attempt and threatened to reveal candidate Trump 's tax returns and demanded that we send him 52 bitcoins in exchange for not publishing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ attention of a US Secret Service agent on the plane we were all travelling on and asked what he thought . He advised me to ignore it and not to reply - which is what I did . The sender never contacted me again . To the best of my recollection , these were the full extent of contacts I had during the campaign with persons who were or appeared to potentially be representatives of the Russian government . Transition Contacts with Foreign Persons The transition period after the election was even more active than the campaign . Starting on election night , we began to receive an incredible volume of messages and invitations from well-wishers in the United States and abroad . Dozens of messages came from foreign officials seeking to set up foreign leader calls and create lines of communication and relationships with what would be the new administration . During this period , I recall having over fifty contacts with people from over fifteen countries . Two of those meetings were with Russians , neither of which I solicited @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ received a request for a meeting from the Russian Ambassador . As I mentioned before , previous to receiving this request , I could not even recall the Russian Ambassador 's name , and had to ask for the name of the individual I had seen at the Mayflower Hotel almost seven months earlier . In addition , far from being urgent , that meeting was not set up for two weeks - on December 1 . The meeting occurred in Trump Tower , where we had our transition office , and lasted twenty- thirty minutes . Lieutenant General Michael Flynn ( Ret ) , who became the President 's National Security Advisor , also attended . During the meeting , after pleasantries were exchanged , as I had done in many of the meetings I had and would have with foreign officials , I stated our desire for a fresh start in relations . Also , as I had done in other meetings with foreign officials , I asked Ambassador Kislyak if he would identify the best person ( whether the Ambassador or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who had contact with his President . The fact that I was asking about ways to start a dialogue after Election Day should of course be viewed as strong evidence that I was not aware of one that existed before Election Day . The Ambassador expressed similar sentiments about relations , and then said he especially wanted to address US policy in Syria , and that he wanted to convey information from what he called his ' generals ' . He said he wanted to provide information that would help inform the new administration . He said the generals could not easily come to the US to convey this information and he asked if there was a secure line in the transition office to conduct a conversation . General Flynn or I explained that there were no such lines . I believed developing a thoughtful approach on Syria was a very high priority given the ongoing humanitarian crisis , and I asked if they had an existing communications channel at his embassy we could use where they would be comfortable transmitting the information they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said that would not be possible and so we all agreed that we would receive this information after the Inauguration . Nothing else occurred . I did not suggest a ' secret back channel ' . I did not suggest an on-going secret form of communication for then or for when the administration took office . I did not raise the possibility of using the embassy or any other Russian facility for any purpose other than this one possible conversation in the transition period . We did not discuss sanctions . Approximately a week later , on December 6 , the Embassy asked if I could meet with the Ambassador on December 7 . I declined . They then asked if I could meet on December 6 , I declined again . They then asked when the earliest was that I could meet . I declined these requests because I was working on many other responsibilities for the transition . He asked if he could meet my assistant instead and , to avoid offending the Ambassador , I agreed . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reported that the Ambassador had requested that I meet with a person named Sergey Gorkov who he said was a banker and someone with a direct line to the Russian President who could give insight into how Putin was viewing the new administration and best ways to work together . I agreed to meet Mr Gorkov because the Ambassador has been so insistent , said he had a direct relationship with the President , and because Mr Gorkov was only in New York for a couple days . I made room on my schedule for the meeting that occurred the next day , on December 13 . The meeting with Mr Gorkov lasted twenty to twenty-five minutes . He introduced himself and gave me two gifts - one was a piece of art from Nvgorod , the village where my grandparents were from in Belarus , and the other was a bag of dirt from that same village . ( Any notion that I tried to conceal this meeting or that I took it thinking it was in my capacity as a businessman is false . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ formally register them with the transition office ) . After that , he told me a little about his bank and made some statements about the Russian economy . He said that he was friendly with President Putin , expressed disappointment with US-Russia relations under President Obama and hopes for a better relationship in the future . As I did at the meeting with Ambassador Kislyak , I expressed the same sentiments I had with other foreign officials I met . There were no specific policies discussed . We had no discussion about the sanctions imposed by the Obama Administration . At no time was there any discussion about my companies , business transactions , real estate projects , loans , banking arrangements or any private business of any kind . At the end of the short meeting , we thanked each other and I went on to other meetings . I did not know or have any contact with Mr Gorkov before that meeting , and I have had no reason to connect with him since . To the best @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I had during the transition with persons who were or appeared to potentially be representatives of the Russian government . Disclosure of Contacts on My Security Clearance Form There has been a good deal of misinformation reported about my SF-86 form . As my attorneys and I have previously explained , my SF-86 application was prematurely submitted due to a miscommunication and initially did not list any contacts ( not just with Russians ) with foreign government officials . Here are some facts about that form and the efforts I have made to supplement it . In the week before the Inauguration , amid the scramble of finalizing the unwinding of my involvement from my company , moving my family to Washington , completing the paper work to divest assets and resign from my outside positions and complete my security and financial disclosure forms , people at my New York office were helping me find the information , organize it , review it and put it into the electronic form . They sent an email to my assistant in Washington , communicating that the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interpreted that message as meaning that the entire form was completed . At that point , the form was a rough draft and still had many omissions including not listing any foreign government contacts and even omitted the address of my father-in-law ( which was obviously well known ) . Because of this miscommunication , my assistant submitted the draft on January 18 , 2017 . That evening , when we realized the form had been submitted prematurely , we informed the transition team that we needed to make changes and additions to the form . The very next day , January 19 , 2017 , we submitted supplemental information to the transition , which confirmed receipt and said they would immediately transmit it to the FBI . The supplement disclosed that I had ' numerous contacts with foreign officials ' and that we were going through my records to provide an accurate and complete list . I provided a list of those contacts in the normal course , before my background investigation interview and prior to any inquiries or media reports about my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ omitted only contacts with Russians . That is not the case . In the accidental early submission of the form , all foreign contacts were omitted . The supplemental information later disclosed over one hundred contacts from more than twenty countries that might be responsive to the questions on the form . These included meetings with individuals such as Jordan 's King Abdullah II , Israel 's Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu , Mexico 's Secretary of Foreign Affairs , Luis Videgaray Caso and many more . All of these had been left off before . Over the last six months , I have made every effort to provide the FBI with whatever information is needed to investigate my background . In addition , my attorneys have explained that the security clearance process is one in which supplements are expected and invited . The form itself instructs that , during the interview , the information in the document can be ' updated , clarified , and explained ' as part of the security clearance process . A good example is the June 9 meeting . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of that meeting I have provided , I did not remember the meeting and certainly did not remember it as one with anyone who had to be included on an SF-86 . When documents reviewed for production in connection with committee requests reminded me that meeting had occurred , and because of the language in the email chain that I then read for the first time , I included that meeting on a supplement . I did so even though my attorneys were unable to conclude that the Russian lawyer was a representative of any foreign country and thus fell outside the scope of the form . This supplemental information was also provided voluntarily , well prior to any media inquiries , reporting or request for this information , and it was done soon after I was reminded of the meeting . As I have said from the very first media inquiry , I am happy to share information with the investigating bodies . I have shown today that I am willing to do so and will continue to cooperate as I have nothing to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has been a great deal of speculation and conjecture about my contacts with any officials or people from Russia . I have disclosed these contacts and described them as fully as I can recall . The record and documents I am providing will show that I had perhaps four contacts with Russian representatives out of thousands during the campaign and transition , none of which were impactful in any way to the election or particularly memorable . I am very grateful for the opportunity to set the record straight . I also have tried to provide context for my role in the campaign , and I am proud of the candidate that we supported , of the campaign that we ran , and the victory that we achieved . It has been my practice not to appear in the media or leak information in my own defense . I have tried to focus on the important work at hand and serve this President and this country to the best of my abilities . I hope that through my answers to questions , written statements @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ entirety of my limited contacts with Russian representatives during the campaign and transition . I did not collude , nor know of anyone else in the campaign who colluded , with any foreign government . I had no improper contacts . I have not relied on Russian funds to finance my business activities in the private sector . I have tried to be fully transparent with regard to the filing of my SF-86 form , above and beyond what is required . Hopefully , this puts these matters to rest . The revelation that Trump Jr , Kushner and Manafort met with Veselnitskaya in hopes of obtaining damaging information on Hillary Clinton added a new dimension to the the allegations that the Trump campaign collaborated with the Kremlin to boost their odds of winning the White House . The Kremlin has denied any interference , and Trump says his campaign did not collude with Moscow . After the president mentioned his power to pardon last week , a legal debate erupted over the executive 's ability to shield himself from criminal charges . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump does retain authority to authorize pardons , they 've since said it 's an unnecessary topic of exploration since the president , his family and his associates have committed no crimes . In an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity on July 11 , Trump Jr did say , ' In retrospect , I probably would have done things a little differently . ' Since he received no information on Clinton from the Kremlin , the president 's legal and communications team says his actions did not rise to the level of collusion . Lynch , the new lawyer for Trump Jr , is already said to have set a private meeting between Trump Jr and the Senate Judiciary Committee , ensuring that he will not have to testify publicly on Wednesday , according to Fox Business Network . Trump Jr is also represented by Alan Futerfas , a criminal defense attorney with 25 years experience , who has frequently represented clients in cyber-security cases .

Reasoning
×
The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'some employers' (NP subject) + 'attempting to wriggle' (V1) + 'out of paying statutory sick pay' (VP2[-ing] predicate). It also fits the prevention interpretation, as the employers are preventing the payment of statutory sick pay by means of wriggling (a form of deception or avoidance). The NP object is implied (the employees who are not receiving the sick pay), functioning as causees in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

Millions of people develop a critical illness each year . According to Cancer Research , there were more than 356,000 new cancer cases in 2014 ( the most recent year for data ) alone . It 's a sobering thought , not just for how you and your family would deal with approaching treatment , but also because of how it could hit you financially . A new study by insurer Royal London has suggested that more than half of people who have been diagnosed with a critical illness - around 3.5 million people - have also been hit financially , whether from having to take time off work or facing unexpected bills . So how can you protect yourself ? Citizens Advice has found some employers attempting to wriggle out of paying statutory sick pay . ( Image : Getty ) The first thing to bear in mind if you fall ill is that you should be entitled to Statutory sick pay ( SSP ) . You can get ? 89.35 per week if you 're too poorly to work , and it is paid for up to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for more than four consecutive days to qualify , though you will pay income tax and national insurance on the payments . Obviously , for many people SSP represents a sharp fall in their usual income , but there are steps you can take to ensure that you are n't financially wiped out if you are unfortunate enough to develop a significant illness . Make sure you have a savings safety net you can rely on in times of emergency . According to the Royal London study around one in five people who have been diagnosed with a critical illness had no savings to fall back on . Everyone should try to build some form of safety savings net that they can turn to in the event of an emergency , whether that 's an unfortunate diagnosis or an exploded boiler . Just putting a couple of pounds away every month can make a difference , just remember to keep it in an account which you can easily access - there 's no point locking that cash @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ illness insurance Critical illness covers pay out a tax-free lump sum if you get sick . ( Image : Getty ) A more robust option is to get some form of insurance in place which will step in should you fall ill , such as critical illness cover . These cover illnesses like cancer , heart attacks and strokes It is usually sold alongside life insurance , and pays out a tax-free lump sum if you develop certain conditions , providing some peace of mind should you need to take an extended period off work . However , it is not as simple as it may appear - the exact list of illnesses covered will vary between insurers , as will what severity the illness needs to reach before a payout is possible .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('employers attempting to wriggle out of paying statutory sick pay'). It implies a prevention interpretation where employers are trying to avoid paying statutory sick pay, which aligns with the transitive out of -ing construction's properties.

Millions of people develop a critical illness each year . According to Cancer Research , there were more than 356,000 new cancer cases in 2014 ( the most recent year for data ) alone . It 's a sobering thought , not just for how you and your family would deal with approaching treatment , but also because of how it could hit you financially . A new study by insurer Royal London has suggested that more than half of people who have been diagnosed with a critical illness - around 3.5 million people - have also been hit financially , whether from having to take time off work or facing unexpected bills . So how can you protect yourself ? Citizens Advice has found some employers attempting to wriggle out of paying statutory sick pay . ( Image : Getty ) The first thing to bear in mind if you fall ill is that you should be entitled to Statutory sick pay ( SSP ) . You can get ? 89.35 per week if you 're too poorly to work , and it is paid for up to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for more than four consecutive days to qualify , though you will pay income tax and national insurance on the payments . Obviously , for many people SSP represents a sharp fall in their usual income , but there are steps you can take to ensure that you are n't financially wiped out if you are unfortunate enough to develop a significant illness . Make sure you have a savings safety net you can rely on in times of emergency . According to the Royal London study around one in five people who have been diagnosed with a critical illness had no savings to fall back on . Everyone should try to build some form of safety savings net that they can turn to in the event of an emergency , whether that 's an unfortunate diagnosis or an exploded boiler . Just putting a couple of pounds away every month can make a difference , just remember to keep it in an account which you can easily access - there 's no point locking that cash @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ illness insurance Critical illness covers pay out a tax-free lump sum if you get sick . ( Image : Getty ) A more robust option is to get some form of insurance in place which will step in should you fall ill , such as critical illness cover . These cover illnesses like cancer , heart attacks and strokes It is usually sold alongside life insurance , and pays out a tax-free lump sum if you develop certain conditions , providing some peace of mind should you need to take an extended period off work . However , it is not as simple as it may appear - the exact list of illnesses covered will vary between insurers , as will what severity the illness needs to reach before a payout is possible .

Everyone loves pre-season , after the long summer drought with no club football . But how much does it actually matter ? The football is poor , the players are slow , and not all of the new signings are in place yet . The games take place all over the world and it is far from a close predictor of what will actually happen in the forthcoming season . It simply does not matter if your team performs or not , as much as it might feel otherwise . Here are just five from the very many examples of teams whose pre-season performances were no guide to how their actual season went . No-one would have expected the West Ham United team of 1985-86 to be as good as they were , putting together an authentic title challenge , second with one game to go but just ending up in third . West Ham have never had such a good league season in their history . It was certainly not on the cards in the summer of 1985 . West Ham , after all , had finished @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ friendlies , losing 4-2 at Wimbledon , 2-1 at Crystal Palace and 3-1 at Leyton Orient . That form continued into the season as West Ham one just one of their first seven matches , before it all started to click . How could Arsenal line up next season ? Getty Cech may have been dropped for the FA Cup final , but the experienced shot-stopper is unlikely to lose his Premier League place anytime soon . The goalkeeper will turn 36 next season and yet he remains one of Arsenal 's best players . Getty Struggled for form towards the end of last season but still one of the best full-backs in the country . Offers pace and power down the wing . Getty The German defender enjoyed a solid debut campaign in English football @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Still only 25 and will improve next season , with a year of English football already under his belt . Getty His poor discipline cost Arsenal in a couple of vital games , but he remains an important , influential player . There have been rumours Marseille have made Koscielny their top transfer target this summer , but it is highly unlikely Arsenal will sell . Getty After impressing with his maturity and composure in a back-three last season , there 's every chance Arsene Wenger could place his faith in the youngster once again for the new campaign . Getty Arsenal 's first signing of the summer . A versatile 23-year-old defender , Kolasinac plays predominantly at left-back but expect Wenger to have him push on . Getty Attracted a lot of criticism for his displays last season , but grew in confidence throughout the campaign and has the talent to become a vital player for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the ball . Getty One of Arsenal 's most technically-gifted players and the glue that keeps the side 's midfield together . Doubts over his fitness and whether he 's got another season left in him , but should he be firing on all cylinders Wenger will want to make full use of him . Getty Still negotiating a contract extension with the club . His performance levels dipped alarmingly last season , but when he is in form , he remains one of the finest passers of the ball in the world . Getty Mahrez recently announced his intentions to leave Leicester this summer and Wenger refused to rule out a move for the Premier League champion . Mahrez would bring real flair to Arsenal 's side , as well as the ability to make something out of nothing . Getty The instinctive centre-forward that Arsenal have longed for ever since Robin van Persie 's departure . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to Arsenal 's front line . Getty Having just won the Premier League for the first time in 1992-93 , expectations were high for Manchester United going into the next season , especially when they signed Roy Keane for ? 3.75million , then an English record signing . But things did not go quite to plan . They lost 2-0 to Arsenal first up and then drew with Kaizer Chiefs in South Africa . They lost again to Benfica , and after scraping past Celtic and Brondby , they lost again to Celtic before it all got underway . The omens were bad , but the season was very good , as United stormed to a historic double . Newcastle United had just been relegated to the Championship , following the failed stewardship of Alan Shearer , when Chris Hughton took over as caretaker . Pre-season was far from perfect , after three solid wins Newcastle then famously lost 6-1 away at Leyton Orient . Frustrating draws with Leeds United and Dundee United followed and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Newcastle . But Hughton admirably steadied the ship , got the players back onside and they stormed to the Championship title , winning it with 102 points , returning to the Premier League at the first time of asking . Van Gaal 's first pre-season was promising ( Getty ) When Louis Van Gaal took over as Manchester United manager in 2014 he was on top of the world . He had just guided the Netherlands to the World Cup semi-final , knocking out Spain along the way , and when he took over at United he looked perfect for the job . His team were brilliant in pre-season , winning all six of their friendlies . They were beating serious teams , too . First they saw off Roma and Internazionale . Then they beat Real Madrid 3-1 in front of 109,000 people , then the Liverpool team who had just almost won the Premier League title , by the same scoreline . When they finished with a 2-1 win over Valencia at Old Trafford , they looked set for a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their first three games , against Swansea City , Sunderland and Burnley , brought them only two points , and things did not get much better from there . Who can forget the great Arsenal summer of 2015 ? They signed Petr Cech , finally adding the world class goalkeeper that they had lacked for a decade as well as a crucial dressing room presence . He , surely , was to be the final piece of the Arsenal jigsaw , allowing them to build on their second straight FA Cup win and finally lead the team back to the top of the Premier League . When they went into pre-season they made short work of a Singapore XI , beating them 4-0 , and then Everton 3-0 . Arsenal then won the Emirates Cup , beating Lyon 6-0 and Wolfsburg 1-0 . Confidence was high , especially when Arsenal recorded a rare 1-0 win over Chelsea in the Community Shield . So did it last ? No .

Nearly half of the atoms that make up our bodies may have formed beyond the Milky Way and travelled to the solar system on intergalactic winds driven by giant exploding stars , astronomers claim . The dramatic conclusion emerges from computer simulations that reveal how galaxies grow over aeons by absorbing huge amounts of material that is blasted out of neighbouring galaxies when stars explode at the end of their lives . Read more Powerful supernova explosions can fling trillions of tonnes of atoms into space with such ferocity that they escape their home galaxy 's gravitational pull and fall towards larger neighbours in enormous clouds that travel at hundreds of kilometres per second . Astronomers have long known that elements forged in stars can travel from one galaxy to another , but the latest research is the first to reveal that up to half of the material in the Milky Way and similar-sized galaxies can arrive from smaller galactic neighbours . Much of the hydrogen and helium that falls into galaxies forms new stars , while heavier elements , themselves @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ become the raw material for building comets and asteroids , planets and life .

" In some sense we are extragalactic visitors or immigrants in what we think of as our galaxy . " The researchers ran supercomputer simulations to watch what happened as galaxies evolved over billions of years . They noticed that as stars exploded in smaller galaxies , the blasts ejected clouds of elements that fell into neighbouring , larger galaxies . The Milky Way absorbs about one sun's-worth of extragalactic material every year . " The surprising thing is that galactic winds contribute significantly more material than we thought , " said Angl ? s-Alc ? zar .

Plenty of material does not reach a high enough speed and simply falls back into the galaxy where the supernova occurred .

On 26 October 1863 the representatives of 11 schools and football clubs met at the Freemasons ' Tavern near Covent Garden in London and founded the Football Association , seeking to establish a unified set of laws , essentially so that those who had gone to different public schools could play against each other when they met at university . Ever since , it feels , the notion of the sport as an end in itself , as a good to be cherished and protected , has been dwindling . Short-term self-interest rules . Read more The Confederation of African Football at least last week decided that the Cup of Nations will , for now , be played in Africa and will feature only African teams , rejecting suggestions from its marketing committee to explore the possibility of inviting three or four nations from elsewhere and playing the competition outside the continent . But as of 2019 , the tournament will be played in June and July rather than January and February and it will comprise 24 rather than 16 teams . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sigh as another great tournament goes the way of the World Cup and the Euros . The shift of date is problematic ( not least in that the 2021 tournament will clash with the Confederations Cup ) but there are arguments for it . African players at western European clubs will no longer find themselves with competing claims on their attention every other season -- which should benefit the players , the clubs and the countries , and lead to fewer wrangles such as that between Liverpool and Cameroon over Jo ? l Matip this year . But there is a reason the Cup of Nations was held in January and February : weather . The next tournament is scheduled to be hosted in Cameroon . In June in Yaound ? the mean daily high temperature is 27 degrees , with average monthly rainfall of 170mm and 85% humidity . These are not ideal conditions for football . Whether it is worth that compromise to satisfy European clubs is open to doubt ; it would certainly not have happened when Issa Hayatou was the CAF president . The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is a terrible idea , diluting the quality and rendering the group stage a slog of largely meaningless football . There will be those who claim an expanded tournament gives a chance to smaller nations and point to the experiences of Wales , Iceland and Northern Ireland at the 2016 European Championship , ignoring the fact that all three would have qualified for a 16-team tournament . In France last summer it took 36 games to reduce 24 teams to 16 . Based on the qualifying record , that in effect meant substituting the Republic of Ireland and Hungary for Austria and the Czech Republic . Neither reached the quarter-finals . This is supposed to be elite sport , not a GLC sports day . Perhaps even that could be tolerated if there was any evidence an appearance at a Cup of Nations is an aid to development . Have Botswana or Niger kicked on since qualifying in 2012 ? Have Malawi benefited from being there in 2010 , or Namibia from 2008 ? Or has the decade since Togo and Angola reached the World Cup been a golden @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Faso supporter prepares for action at the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations . A 24-team tournament would not be good news for fans . Photograph : Gabriel Bouys/AFP/Getty Images Besides which , 24 is an awful number for a tournament if filtering to a last 16* , because it entails best third-placed teams . Comparing between groups always feels artificial and can lead to anomalies that , through the fault of nobody but the format , seem unfair . At the European Under-21 Championship this summer , for instance , the teams in Group C had a clear advantage because , playing last , they knew what was necessary for , in this case , a best second-placed team to progress : Germany , trailing to Italy , had little incentive to press for an equaliser because they knew a 1-0 defeat gave them a semi-final against England while a heavier defeat would have seen them miss out to Slovakia , the second-placed team in Group A. At the Gold Cup , meanwhile , Honduras qualified ahead of Martinique as a best third-placed side entirely because they were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that had initially finished 0-0 , Martinique were punished in effect because French Guiana had wilfully played Florent Malouda despite knowing he was ineligible . Then there is the problem of hosting . A 16-team tournament requires four stadiums and even that is not always easy . In 2015 , for instance , two of the quarter-finals were switched at the last minute from Ebebiyin and Mongomo because the infrastructure there was simply not good enough . Read more That , perhaps , is an exception given Equatorial Guinea had stepped in with a month 's notice to replace Morocco as hosts but recent tournaments are littered with new-built stadiums that will never be used again ( this , perhaps , is the underlying logic of the proposal to move the tournament to a different continent : rather than the Chinese constantly funding and building stadiums in Africa , there perhaps comes a point at which it is easier to take the tournament to pre-existing Chinese stadiums ) . A @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not only reduces the number of potential hosts but means increased investment in white elephants . Cameroon is already behind schedule in its preparations for 2019 , while struggling with increasing tension between the Anglophone and Francophone parts of the country . These decisions have at least given it an extra five months to get ready but it will now have to prepare two additional venues . Morocco , having pulled out of hosting duties for 2015 over Ebola fears , is standing by ( June temperature in Marrakech 32 degrees , precipitation nil ) . But this is about more than 2019 . It is about more than Africa . It is about sporting authorities acting not in the interests of the sport but for short-term financial gain . Increase the number of finalists by 50% and you decrease your chance of missing out . More than that , you decrease the chances of the vital markets of Nigeria and South Africa missing out . Will the football be better or meaningful ? Will it help African sides prepare for the challenge of the World Cup @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for the game ? Of course not but who still cares about that ? *This is an academic point because nobody would ever do this but if 24 filtered to quarter-finals , you could have eight groups of three and avoid dead rubbers so long as you had flexibility in the scheduling so the fixtures in each group went A v B followed by C v the loser of A v B followed by C v the winner of A v B. |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes Neymar storming out of training, which is a different construction involving a phrasal verb 'stormed out of' followed by a noun 'training'.

The incident occurs at Barca 's American training camp in Miami , with Neymar seen scuffling with recent signing from Benfica Semedo . Earlier this week , Gerard Pique claimed that Neymar will stay at Barcelona this season , but reports have continued throughout the summer that the Brazilian winger will join Ligue 1 side Paris Saint Germain in the coming days . The images show Neymar take exception to a challenge by Semedo and has to be restrained by his teammates . At just 25 years he is already the fourth top scorer in Brazilian history with 52 goals from 77 matches - three goals shy of Romario and already past legends such as Bebeto or Jairzinho.The player from Sao Paulo has always had huge pressure on his shoulders as the unique Brazilian star of his generation . He responds by squaring up to him , before appearing to gesture : " What are you doing ? " The pair were immediately separated when it started and Semedo walked away immediately , something which Neymar did n't want to do . Sergio @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " We want him to continue with us " . Accompanied by a member of the Barcelona staff , he leaves as training resumes without him , with the player going out into the auto park and leaving the training area entirely .

Barcelona president Josep Bartomeu has said Neymar is not for sale . PSG remain confident of signing the prolific striker having held talks with Barcelona officials last week , which will see PSG pay his ? 222m ( ? 196m ) release clause in full . |

Sunday 30 July 2017 00.16 EDT First published on Saturday 29 July 2017 10.00 EDT Labor will impose a 30% tax rate on distributions from discretionary trusts in an effort to crack down on income splitting and aggressive tax minimisation by high-wealth individuals . Bill Shorten unveiled Labor 's new policy at the New South Wales party conference on Sunday . The measure is expected to raise $4.1bn in revenue over the first four years and $17.2bn over the medium term , and take effect from 1 July 2019 . The new tax rate will apply to trust distributions to beneficiaries over the age of 18 . Read more It will not apply to non-discretionary trusts , such as special disability trusts , deceased estates and fixed trusts , nor will it apply to farm or charitable trusts -- carve outs which will likely reduce some of the political backlash to the measure . Discretionary trusts are used by high-income earners to distribute investment income to beneficiaries on lower marginal tax rates @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ paid . In address to the NSW conference on Sunday , Shorten pointed to significant growth in the number of discretionary trusts since the late 1990s , and he characterised curbing tax minimisation as an important principle of fairness . The Labor leader said the country should have " one , clear , fair system " with consistent rules . " It 's about delivering a level playing field -- so high-income earners ca n't opt out of paying income tax , " he said . Shorten said more revenue needed to be raised in order to protect Australia 's triple-A credit rating , and the revenue needs to come from people who can most afford to pay . Read more " Every year in Australia , there are high-income earners who use discretionary trusts to park their money in a lower tax bracket , and the rest of the community are left to subsidise this , " the Labor leader told the conference . " That 's not fair @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ option . " The Turnbull government moved quickly on Sunday to characterise the new Labor policy as yet another " tax grab " . The finance minister , Mathias Cormann warned the measure could have a significant impact on small businesses . " This is ultimately going to be a tax hike in particular on the many small business operators across Australia who use trust structures as a legitimate way of managing their financial affairs , " he told Sky News . " It will be very important for small businesses across Australia in particular to see the detail . " Cormann said Labor 's measure was " another tax grab on top of all of the other tax grabs that Bill Shorten has announced so far " . The shadow treasurer , Chris Bowen , said Labor had predicted a scare campaign from the government to try to " mislead small-business people " . " I saw Mathias Cormann this morning saying that all $17bn will come from small-business people , " Bowen told the ABC . " I make this point @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 315,000 trusts will pay more tax , or the beneficiaries will pay more tax as a result of this . " So for the government to engage in that scare campaign , we 're ready for it . " He said the $4bn saved by the proposed trust changes would be used for budget repair and " to fund important social investments " . Given Labor has also signalled big investments in priorities such as schools funding , and has shown a general reluctance to cut expenditures , the party will also have little choice but to pursue new revenue raising measures to fund its next federal election offering . The new trusts measure , and other policies Labor has unveiled in recent months , such as capping tax deductions for accountancy to $3,000 , will limit some of the options high-income earners currently have to minimise their tax liability . Figures from the Australian Taxation Office for the 2014-15 financial year , released in April , showed that 48 Australians who earned more than $1m paid no income tax at all . Read more Nineteen reduced their taxable income to zero by claiming a combined $20.2m for the " cost of managing tax affairs " -- nearly $1.1m each . Nine claimed gifts or donations worth $27.5m to help them do so . John Howard first addressed the problem of income splitting in the early 1980s , deeming that income distributions to dependents , including from trusts , were taxed at the top marginal rate . But current rules allow income to be diverted to other family members , such as stay-at-home mothers or fathers , or to dependents over the age of 18 , such as children at university , college or Tafe . Sunday 's crackdown on trusts will be followed in the coming week by Labor flagging changes to the workplace relations framework . Trade unions have been lobbying Labor to look at labour laws for the next election . The government has characterised Labor 's suite of policies , which include retaining the deficit levy and applying an increase in the Medicare levy only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the combined effect of increasing the top personal tax rate to 49.5% -- as class warfare , or a " penalty on success " . Read more The treasurer , Scott Morrison , argued in a speech last week that fairness was about people contributing their fair share , but it was " not about taking from those who have earned to simply even up the score " . " Bill Shorten only thinks you are doing better if someone else is doing worse , " Morrison said last week . Shorten used Sunday 's speech to rebut Morrison 's characterisation of his motives . " There is nothing wrong with people earning a good income , or profiting from their investments , " he said . " I do n't begrudge anyone the money they 've made . " But our system should not be subsidising those who are already wealthy -- and our budget can not afford to . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'takes the kick out of being second rate' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it expresses a loss of enjoyment or excitement, which is not aligned with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

He 's the fastest man who has ever lived , holder of eight gold medals and three world records . As Usain Bolt approaches his final race in London this week , we celebrate a sprinter who made running look both effortless and fun Bolt leaves the competition for dead at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro . Photograph : Kai Pfaffenbach/Reuters He 's the fastest man who has ever lived , holder of eight gold medals and three world records . As Usain Bolt approaches his final race in London this week , we celebrate a sprinter who made running look both effortless and fun There 's an old EA Sports commercial I dimly remember from my childhood . They make video games ( I never played any of them ) but the TV ad , or at least its tagline , has stuck in my head . Somehow , it shows mankind at the beginning of time or maybe I 've conflated it with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ couple of cavemen are sitting around , arguing , until one of them comes up with a game . " I 'm better than you and I can prove it , " he says . Since then , we 've invented a lot of ways to prove it . By kicking balls into nets or throwing them into baskets ; by striking them with rackets or clubs ; by pressing buttons on a console . But the simplest game is also the one kids turn to first . I 'll race you : to that tree , to that fire-hydrant , to the lamp-post . Hey , I told you so . I 'm faster than you . Usain Bolt is better than us and he can prove it . Eight gold medals , three world records ; he has n't been beaten in the 100 or 200m since Justin Gatlin edged him by a hundredth of a second in Rome in 2013 . Not only is he better , but he 's better at the purest and most ancient test of what people can do that 's ever @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us , but than anyone who has ever lived . What was that like to grow up with ? And as he approaches his final world championships in London this week , another question must be on his mind . How do you retire from that ? He was born , as Paul Simon once sang , at the right time . And the stories he tells in his " autobiography " ( written with Matt Allen ) about growing up in the village of Sherwood Content in Jamaica are full of the myths of innocence . " There were yams , bananas , coca , coconuts , mangoes , oranges , guavas . Everything grew in and around the backyard ... Coxeaths ' wild bush was like a natural playground . I only had to step out my front door to find something physical to do . There was always somewhere to play , always somewhere to run and always something to climb . The woods delivered an exercise programme suitable for any wannabe sprinter , with clearings to play in and assault courses made from broken coconut @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fastest guy in the world , he would look like Bolt -- long limbed , restless , happy He " trained " by carrying water from the well to his house -- two buckets at a time , to save himself a trip . Athletes , maybe even more than other people , depend on the myths they can tell about themselves and Bolt 's memoir lingers on his early playground races and the names of the schoolboys he compared himself to : the kid at Waldensia primary named Ricardo Geddes , whom he finally beat on a school sports day , and later Keith Spence of Cornwall College , muscly but short , a quick starter who could n't keep pace with him around the bend . So that winning Olympic gold , the way he tells it , feels just like a continuation or extension of his childhood , whereas for the rest of us , growing up involves some kind of adjustment or re-evaluation . That something weird was happening to him , he could n't help but notice . Like Clark Kent in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ suffer from things that he does n't . Colds and hangovers , shaving cuts . Bolt 's mother 's Christianity ( she 's a Seventh-day Adventist ) , though he never had much patience for it as a child , eventually gave him a kind of explanation : " I turned to religion more and more as I got older , mainly because I came to realise that I 'd been given a serious gift . The one thing I began to see was that God always helped people who helped themselves . " If there 's a convenience to this kind of thinking , how can you blame him ? It 's one thing to win the lottery -- you might feel lucky ( even though it 'll probably screw you up eventually ) . But what are you supposed to feel when the prize you win is somehow who you are ? " I had so much natural talent that on sports day no one else came close to me and I 'd line up in just about every race on the card and come first . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Photograph : Hamish Blair/Reuters His arrival on the scene coincided with dark days for track and field . Everyone seems to be a potential drug cheat these days and many of his biggest rivals have been caught doping : Asafa Powell , Justin Gatlin , Tyson Gay . But even that fact has contributed to Bolt 's appeal . In The Sun Also Rises , Hemingway talks scathingly about what he calls the " hard-shelled technicians " -- the bullfight aficionados who care only for a certain kind of formal or technical perfection . They 're missing something , whatever it is that makes the fight worth following , the human gesture , the air of tragedy -- and part of the damage that drugs have done to sport is the impression they give of letting the technicians take over . Drug-taking does n't just mean cheating but medicalisation . Cheating in the heat of the moment we can accept and even sometimes admire -- Diego Costa pushing the edges of the legal when he elbows a defender or makes a dirty , last-ditch tackle at the touchline @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and highly technical deception , on a tight schedule . It 's the kind of cheating you might accept from your accountant . Which is why it 's been so important to Bolt that he looks like the kind of athlete who does n't need them . If you had to imagine the fastest guy in the world , he would look like Bolt -- long limbed , restless , happy . It makes sense when he kicks out his legs that he starts drifting past the competition . If Gatlin had never been caught , if he had broken three world records and won eight Olympic golds , I still do n't think the world would have warmed to him . He looks like he 's spent too much time in the weight room , like he 's trying too hard . This is an old distinction in the world of athletics -- you can hear it played out already in Chariots of Fire . " You long for victory just as I do , " Harold Abrahams tells the master of Trinity College , " but achieved @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ archaic values of the prep-school playground . I believe in the relentless pursuit of excellence and I 'll carry the future with me . " The apparent effortlessness of gods is n't a bad description of Bolt and may explain why the British love him . That line about the playground fits , too ( he got a scholarship to William Knibb Memorial high school in Falmouth , Jamaica ) , because Bolt somehow still makes running feel like he 's racing everyone else to the nearest tree . Of course , that 's all crap . You ca n't be the fastest human in history without working your arse off . But it 's part of his appeal . I sucked as an athlete , by which I mean I was deeply mediocre . I was on the bench as a high-school basketball player and tried to crash the captain 's practices in college . I had better luck in Europe , where my grad school team won a national championship and I briefly made a living as a second-tier professional in the German leagues . But @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enough to enjoy myself . Maybe that 's an awkward phrase ( which reveals something not so pleasant about me ) but it also more or less describes what being an athlete is like . It 's fun to be better than people ; it 's less fun not to be . Chariots of Fire wrestles with the ' relentless pursuit of excellence ' . Photograph : Warner Bros As it happens , the most dispiriting afternoon of my professional career occurred on the running track . The coach was trying to whip us into shape a few weeks before the season began . Maybe the gym was overbooked . ( Part of the misery of minor-league sports is that you have to share court time with every aerobics class in town . ) Anyway , after an hour of playing ball he decided to lead us on to the track . Summer dusk , after a cool day . Ten or 11 tall , tired , skinny guys trying to stretch out aching joints . And he made us run intervals -- 20 metres , 40 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we reached the 100m mark , where it suddenly turned into a race . The first thing you realise about running 100m is that it 's not a sprint . No one ( not even Bolt ) can maintain peak acceleration for that long . The second thing I realised is that everyone on the team who was n't a muscle-bound big man was also faster than me . Sports is a rigorous profession -- it is very good at sorting out the slightly better from the slightly worse . But basketball players can go through life kidding themselves that there are external factors to explain whatever has happened to their career . They could n't find the right system . They did n't get the ball enough . It 's just bad luck . But running 100m felt very unlike bad luck and felt a lot like concrete fact . This is who I am , the guy who came 7th . There 's nothing you can do about it . Which is how it works for athletes . You keep winning until you come up against @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ point you start to lose . And so the sifting begins . And once it 's over , a few people are left : Serena Williams , Lionel Messi , LeBron James , Usain Bolt . And my guess is they greet and recognise each other like X-Men when they meet -- this funny thing is true about us , which we have to deal with . So why do we warm to them ? Why do we want to watch them win ? This does n't totally make sense to me . People talk about Bolt 's charm and that 's obviously a part of it . But there 's a reason ( to adapt Douglas Adams ) that no language on Earth includes the phrase " as charming as an athlete " . Very slight gestures on the track get amplified into a personality . The windows of self-expression are small . A necklace tucked into the jersey , the way you stretch out your legs , settling in the blocks or jog around the track on a victory lap . Bolt has managed to find a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ famous that Obama tried it on when Bolt froze shyly in his presence on the president 's visit to Jamaica . And reality herself has been his brand consultant . No novelist could have given a sprinter a better name . All of which explains why we might remember him , but not quite why we 've taken him to heart . Sitting on the couch , in front of the TV -- rooting for someone , identifying with him , almost because he is so unlike us , so unimaginably fast . When Eric Liddell has to justify his running career to his missionary sister ( in another scene from Chariots of Fire ) , he says : " I feel that God made me for a purpose .

All women have a variety of products that they rarely use or have run out of in their make up bag . But there are a number of simple tricks you can do to get the most out of these products and help your make up bag go the distance . Here we look at tips offered by make up gurus Lauren Curtis and Domenica Calarco , who have both recently shared their easy to do make up ' hacks ' - and some of them might surprise you . USE MOISTURISER FOR PERFECT BROWS To get perfect brows , YouTuber Lauren Curtis is all about using moisturiser as a primer . ' I like to use moisturiser in my brows before I apply my brow powder .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes actions related to applying makeup and getting the most out of skincare products, but it does not involve a causer and causee relationship with a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'GET EVERY DROP OUT OF SKIN CARE/FOUNDATION' is an imperative and does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate. The latter part about using a straw to get the most out of anything in a bottle also does not match the construction's requirements.

Mo Farah will race in the World Athletics Championships but will not talk to print media ahead of it Farah will be attempting to win an unprecedented 10th consecutive global title when he runs in the 10,000m on Friday night . He will also be racing in the 5,000m final on Saturday August 12 in an effort to complete a world long-distance double for the third Championships in a row . But after falling out with reporters at last month 's Anniversary Games , which were held in the London Stadium where the Worlds will take place this week , Farah has reportedly been told not to conduct any interviews with print journalists . " I am sick of repeating myself . You guys just make something out of nothing , " Farah said in July . " I will never , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what I do and I just carry on enjoying what I do . " What I do day in and day out , there are no secrets to what I do . My life is not as easy as people think -- it is hard work , about grafting .

" According to Telegraph athletics correspondent Ben Bloom , the four-time Olympic champion has ignored UK Athletics ' pleas to help promote the event by fulfilling media commitments on the advice of his PR firm . GETTY Mo Farah is one of the most successful British Olympians of all time The news comes in the wake of yet more documents leaked by the Russian hacking group known as Fancy Bears which this time list Farah 's name among dozens of athletes flagged by the International Association of Athletics Federations for suspicious biological passports . One notation on a doping test the British runner gave on November 23 2015 states : " Likely doping ; Passport suspicious @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dated some six months later appears to clear Farah though , stating he is " now flagged as normal " .

" It is just a small minority who think to become a success you must be doing something . " I said I will never fail a drugs test . That is who I am .

The recent unrest in tea-growing regions of India has led to claims that we will experience a shortage of Darjeeling by the end of 2017 . According to The Economic Times , prices for the leaf tea shot up between 50 to 100 per cent this month , due in part to protests by the Himalayan Gorkha community against the government , where clashes have halted the production of tea in the region . All gone : the popular blend is increasingly expensiveCredit : Newby Teas Tea drinkers are being warned that after the final lots go to auction in August , the UK may begin to run dry of Darjeeling tea for the first time in 156 years . Just as champagne can not be produced anywhere else in the world , Darjeeling ( thanks to a Protected Origin Status granted by the European Commission in 2011 ) , can not be labelled as such if it is grown in any other region than the Darjeeling region in West Bengal . " The current situation in Darjeeling has tragically even led to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ compounded an ongoing trend in this region towards neglect of tea plantations and poor teas , " explains Nirmal Sethia , the founder and chairman of Newby Teas .

Reminiscent : Kan-Junga has been put forward as the alternative of choiceCredit : Newby Teas As a result , the brand has developed an alternative blend , Kan-Junga , to satisfy fans of the thin-bodied , amber-coloured infusion , commonly made as a black tea but also available as oolong , green or white tea .

For the second tournament in a row , the Lionesses have fallen short in the final four . For the second tournament in succession , they have raised the profile of women 's football in this country , only to fail to get their hands on the silverware that would have really sealed their legacy . They leave Holland with a familiar feeling , a sense of what might have been , that bitter sensation of knowing they have wasted another golden opportunity to end this country 's long wait for a tournament triumph . In the end , they were out-played by a Holland side that will surely be crowned European champions on Sunday against a far more limited Denmark team . Holland were slicker and sharper , England never got going . England 's forwards struggled to get into the game against a composed Dutch defenceCredit : GETTY IMAGES There were flashes from Mark Sampson 's side , periods when they looked like they might get back into the contest after conceding the first goal for the first time in the tournament , but those hopes were dashed when they allowed the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mistake by the unfortunate Fara Williams . England 's players had wanted this game . As soon as their path to the final was mapped , this was the semi-final they had visualised , the test they wanted to pass . The thought of beating the host nation , in front of a capacity crowd , just as they had done to Canada at the World Cup two years ago , excited them , but it ended in tears . There will be no recriminations , just regret . England had their chance and blew it . " We 're disappointed , there are 24 devastated women in that dressing room , " said Sampson . " We 've shed a lot of tears together , but we can also be very proud . They have given everything to try and win this tournament , they could n't have given anything more . It just was n't our night . " We knew it was going to be difficult , playing the host nation in front of a capacity crowd , and we have to congratulate Holland @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more games like that , it can only be a good thing for women 's football . " I have been blessed as a manager , I could n't have had a better group of players . This hurts , but I ca n't praise my players enough . " Jodie Taylor did n't have much joy against the Dutch defenceCredit : GETTY IMAGES England had chances , but were just not clinical enough . They played with passion and pride , but lacked composure . In contrast , Holland were clinical in everything they did . England had a sight of goal inside two minutes , but Jodie Taylor could not control the ball after a high punt from Jordan Nobbs had caught the Holland defence flat-footed . It was a worrying sign of what was to come . Holland looked dangerous whenever they got the ball into wide areas and when a clearance from Millie Bright was charged down by Shanice van de Sanden , it needed an important interception from her centre back partner Steph Houghton to prevent Lieke Martens opening the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ another notch as the home crowd sensed England 's vulnerability . They were right to get excited . Again , Holland attacked down the right flank and when Jackie Groenen was given the time and space to deliver a cross on the run , it found the head of Vivanne Miedema and she put the ball back across goal and into the far corner . Vivianne Miedema scored the first goalCredit : REUTERS England responded well and when Lucy Bronze broke into the area , she had both Taylor and Fran Kirby waiting for the pass , the latter though scooped her shot over the bar . England raised their intensity level and almost equalised when Jade Moore got on the end of a Nobbs corner , but the ball was diverted on to the post by the toe of Sherida Spitse and Houghton could not put the follow up header on target . The half ended with England -- who might have had a penalty when Ellen White was bundled over by Desiree van Lunteren - on top , but Holland remained in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coming , Taylor trying her luck from distance , but her Arsenal teammate , van Veenendaal , made a comfortable save . White did the same , with the same outcome . Farah Williams handed a golden chance to Holland for their second goalCredit : AP At the other end , Siobhan Chamberlain , who had been given nothing to do , other than retrieve the ball from her net in the first half , was at full stretch to keep out van de Sanden . A second goal , given Holland 's excellent defence , would have killed England . For the first time , the women in white shirts began to look fractious , sensing the game was slipping from their grasp . Their fears were well-placed , when Williams headed the ball needlessly straight into the path of Danielle van de Donk , inside the area , and she doubled Holland 's lead . Holland had one foot in the final and when White failed to get the ball on target , after van Veenendaal was caught in no man 's land , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , began to drop . When Taylor finally got her clear sight of goal , she fired a shot straight at the goalkeeper . Minutes later , substitute Toni Duggan had an effort cleared off the line . It summed up England 's night , the misery completed when Martens ' shot was diverted into her own goal by Bright . " It just was n't our night , things did n't go our way . They 're a good team , it 's a tough crowd to play in front of . It 's disappointing but just was n't our night . " I do n't think it got to us , I think the crowd was behind them . Questionable in the box as well ... it just was n't meant to be . I think there were a couple that might have been penalties but credit to Holland , they out-battled us at times and I 'm so proud of everyone . " Heartbreak for the Lionesses ! But they were beaten by the better @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ final and after this performance , will likely to do as favourites . England worked hard but just lacked the quality to get the job done . Better luck next time . Holland 3 ( Bright O.G 90+3 ' ) - 0 England Disaster for Millie Bright . She ca n't do much about this one as England are left hopelessly exposed , the striker fires a tame shot at the near post and it comes off the shin of Bright and past the goalkeeper . England look exhausted . Jansen is coming on now for Van de Sanden to huge applause from the home crowd . Van Es gets away with a definite foul throw but England win it anyway and have a corner . Carney takes it this time , and the delivery is much better than during the rest of the night . It drops to Duggan but she ca n't control or get a shot away . Chamberlain comes off her line but ca n't keep control of the ball and puts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Holland 2 - 0 England Van de Sanden is keeping the ball in the corner now , winding down the clock . It does feel like England have left it way too late to get anything out of this . Ellen White has n't given up and though and wins the ball in the final third and shoots at goal . Again , it 's not good enough and the keeper can easily parry . The corner is low this time and Duggan has a shot first time ! Blocked . Good effort . TAYLOR IS IN ! SHE HAS TO SCORE ! Ohhhhhh and she 's missed . She nicks on a mistake by the defender and only has the goalkeeper to beat but hits her shot straight at her . Duggan was screaming for it in the middle waiting for an open goal tap-in . It just is n't England 's night . Bronze drives at the defence , goes past two and is then wiped out ! That must be a penalty ! ! ! NO ! ? Mental . The replay shows that Bronze dips to go on the outside , the defender comes across her and knocks her to the ground . England should have a penalty . Holland are on the attack and passing the ball around beautifully in the final third . It 's calm , composed passing play and a cross into the box draws three England defenders towards the ball . Houghton wins the header . Williams comes off , which will probably mean a change of shape for England as Duggan is a far more attacking midfielder . Kirby links @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ top ..... WHITE IS THROUGH ON GOAL ! The goalie comes out , White is first to it ... but she can only lift her shot over and wide of the goal . Signs of a fightback already from England . Terrible error by Williams ! Holland 2 ( Van de Donk 62 ' ) - 0 England Williams tries to head back to the goalkeeper but puts it over Houghton 's head and sets up Van de Donk for an easy one-on-one with Chamberlain ! She finishes well and takes a hit in the process but that could be game over for England ! What a dreadful time for that to happen . England are trying to be a little more direct now but the final pass is poor and they 're not reading each other very well at all . Kirby gets the ball on the edge of the box and tries to conjure some magic , goes pas tone , cuts inside and then White runs in and accidentally knocks the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to save low but it was fairly easy . Nobbs is furious at another late challenge from Van de Donk , and the Dutch woman is duly booked by the referee . Nobbs stamps on Van der Gragt 's foot , presumably by accident , and she 's in a spot of pain but soon recovers . Again , I know it 's cliche , but in the men 's Europa League game I watched earlier the players were hurling themselves around after the briefest of touches . England corner . Nobbs takes it again , slices across the ball and sends it in a straight arc into the box ... but nobody can make use and now Holland are on the attack ! Van der Sanden hits a poor pass into the box and then Groenen tries an ambitious shot from miles out . Clever set piece from England . It looks @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ box but Nobbs does a little flick and runs off , gets the ball passed to her as it 's taken forward and then tries a shot from long range which lacks the power to trouble the goalkeeper . Van de Donk gets a bit shirty with Jade Moore because she does n't enjoy the close attention she 's receiving . Holland get the ball out to the left from the free-kick and fire a cross early into the box ... and a forward runs at the near post to head at goal ! But the defence blocks and England hang on . Holland attack for the first time in what feels like ages but are well looked after by the defence . Taylor goes down as she chases the ball upfront but again , it 's just that Holland are slightly stronger in defence than England 's smaller forwards . White does well to win a free-kick , drawing the foul from Van Lunteren . Mark Sampson has ripped his shirt by gesturing too violently on the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ANGRY . England are on the attack ! Kirby gets to burn away from the defence for about the first time tonight and Holland ca n't deal with her pace . She puts the ball in the middle and Williams has gone down off the ball ... is that a penalty ? The referee says no ... and Taylor ca n't get on the header . Nobbs tries to put Kirby through on goal but the keeper comes out to smother the ball . Replays suggest that Williams was unlucky not to win a penalty there , though in all honesty it would have been harsh on Holland if it was given . AND NOW WHITE IS DOWN ! She wants a penalty ! But again the referee says no ! White is bounced to the floor in the area by Van Lunteren but that would have been even softer to award . Taylor is working hard upfront but is n't having much fun at the moment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they chase it into the corner . An orange balloon floats onto the pitch and one of the Dutch centre-backs stamps on it to ROARS of approval from the crowd . That word is capitalised because it was loud , perhaps even more so than the goal . Houghton stands over the kick with Nobbs ... and it is Houghton , who bends one with some power towards the top corner . High and wide but a decent effort . Williams wins a free-kick as she is clattered from behind while going for a header . It 's launched long towards the box , Kirby flicks it on ... but there 's an offside - which is wrong - and the referee gives a free-kick. This is great high pressure froM England . They have Holland pinned back and are winning the ball high up the pitch . Williams tackles , drives forward and looks for the pass out left but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a corner . Nobbs swings it in AND MOORE HITS THE POST ! What a header . She comes across and batters the ball towards goal , it spins towards the bottom corner and a defender is on the line to boot it away , only managing to hit the post . Houghton tries a header from the rebound but puts it wide . England have stepped up a level . Moore goes into a brave header on the edge of the box as Van de Donk raises her foot dangerously high . Free-kick in a good area . England are in here ! Magic play from Bronze who just keeps going , digging the ball out of two separate challenges and passing it on her sidefoot into the box . Taylor passes it on and Kirby should get a shot away here ... but it 's a poor effort and she chips the ball miles over the bar . It 's an Arsenal player ! But not an English one ... Holland @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Way too much space on the right for Groenen , who has been brilliant so far and Miedema is perfectly positioned in the box to attackl the cross . She headers the ball back across goal and the goalkeeper ca n't do anything about it . Great goal . First shot on goal and it 's Van de Donk . Houghton heads a cross away but it 's too central and Van de Donk can hit one on the volley from the little semi-circle on the edge of the box . She gets underneath it and the ball goes way over the bar . Taylor is caught just offside as she tries to run in behind the last defender . Stokes passes back to the goalie but she repays the favour by shanking her attempted kick forward and gives possession back to Holland . Houghton puts the ball out of play . Safety first , and all that . All of a sudden space opens up in the right @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Holland attack , putting a low cross into the area but England defend well . Miedema hand balls from the resulting throw-in. Ellen White is caught late and Van Lunteren is booked for it . She 's stood on her foot and it looks fairly painful ... but White is up again straight away . I can not stress enough how refreshing it is to watch a European football game where players do n't roll around on the ground after every foul . Corner for England ! Nobbs lifts it in ... but it 's too straight and the goalkeeper can easily catch it . Millie Bright is in trouble for bouncing into the keeper while she tries to kick the ball out from the back and is booked . Houghton brings the ball out from the back , threads it forward and England try to come forward but Nobbs gives it away on the right and Holland can counter . They slow things down and pass it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ goes in hard on Van Es - both go flying into the air and then get up straight away . I 've just watched a Europa League game in which every single player spent 10 minutes on the ground crying after any light brush - that was a proper collision . England have calmed a little and are pressing Holland high up the pitch , forcing them to pass out from the back . Holland are doing exactly the same back to them though and England 's answer is to knock it long . Chamberlain passes straight to Groenen on the edge of the box ... but she 's closed down and England win it back . But then a long ball over the top gives possession away again . They have n't calmed down at all - everyone is nervous . And probably will be for another few minutes . Holland ping the ball forward , it goes out for a throw , England do n't control the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , get it forward quickly and a cross into the box is too high for Taylor . It 's a frantic start to the game . Lieke Martens is the famous one , can dribble on the inside and outside of players and thus can play on either the right or left of attack . But there is another dangerous player in the ranks of Holland - Vivianne Miedema is a goalscorer with the ability to create something out of nothing . England beware ! It 's safe to say there 's a fair disparity between the money in the men 's game and the women 's . Intriguingly , 3.3million people in the UK watched England in the quarter-final , which is more than the Champions League final . Being on free-to-air probably helped but those are big numbers . The Lieke this banner is referring to is Lieke Martens , the left winger who plays for Barcelona . And here we are ! England are in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ages . 27 years to be precise . Incredibly , they are also the bookies ' favourites to win the entire thing ... which means this should be a comfortable win , right ? No ! It will be a struggle , not only for the players to cope with the pressure , the high technical ability of their opponents and demands of playing so many games in such a short period of time , but also for me to attempt to correctly spell all the names of the various Dutch players whose names begin Van de , Van or Van de . Spare a thought for the troubled football liveblogger. |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes an action where the subject 'Attacker' (Jadon Sancho) 'pulls out of training' at a club, but there is no NP object or VP2[-ing] predicate involved. The phrase 'pulls out of training' is more about the subject's own action rather than causing or preventing someone else from doing something, which is a key feature of the transitive out of -ing construction.

3rd August , 2017 , 8:50 PM By Harry Sykes Tottenham-targeted teenager Jadon Sancho has withdrawn from training at Manchester City and has returned to London with no intention of returning to his club , according to a report . The Independent claim the attacking midfielder , 17 , has made up his mind to quit the Premier League giants even though he has one year remaining on his scholarship deal . It is said that Arsenal and Tottenham are locked in an all-north London battle to sign Sancho , who is likely to cost a compensation fee of around ? 4million . The Independent report that Spurs have already tabled an offer for the teenager after asking for him to be included as a makeweight in the deal that took Kyle Walker to City in a ? 50million deal last month . The Manchester club rejected that offer and have tried to demonstrate their faith in Sancho by offering him a three-year professional contract worth ? 30,000-a-week . The player has made it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ secure a move to a London club . Football Insider verdict Arsenal were once the go-to club for outstanding and ambitious youngsters who were not getting enough game time at their clubs , usually ones of greater resources with too many hurdles blocking a first-team path . But , like peak Arsene Wenger , Mauricio Pochettino has a burgeoning reputation as a manager who develops stars rather than buys him . His coaching work is highly rated by all those who come under his wing , while his man management also wins favour with complex modern players who are millionaires before they finish their teens . This north-London race could tell us a lot about the respective positions of the two clubs . |

Nhammirri bukmak Ngapaki ga Yolngu and everyone else sitting in this room . I 'd like to acknowledge the traditional owners of this land -- the Gumatj people . My name is Michael Gadingura Yunupingu , and I am Dr Yunupingu 's grandson . I 'd like to summarise my life to you all , as I think it is very important for everyone to sit and listen to . My brother and I grew up most of our lives in Adelaide , taken care of single-handedly by our mother , who is also a foster carer to many past and present and adopted by Wandjuk Marika -- who was a Rirrtangu leader . We were encouraged from a young age to go to school and make the most of our education . We were also encouraged to commit to sports , and experience a range of programs , which allowed us to gain connections and interests . It was hard for us to maintain and learn more about our own language and culture , as we lived on the other side of the country , but we always knew this land was part of us and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I started to have ambitions on what I wanted to be and through the many opportunities my mother gave me , I have been able to chase them . My dream is to run in the Olympics , be a sports scientist , working in elite sporting faculties and also be a mentor in Indigenous health . Right now I am halfway through completing a sports science degree at UniSA University of South Australia and have represented the state in the 200/400m in Sydney . My brother 's dream is to be a film-maker ; he has already won awards and is part of the South Australian Film Corporation . So a lot of you in this room may be thinking : why did I just summarise my lifetime achievements to you all ? There are so many Yolngu kids outside of this room who want to be something when they grow up . Everyone has a dream . Prime minister , you had a dream right ? The only problem is , they do n't have the opportunities to get to that dream . We all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ figure out a way in which kids can carry on our culture , yet gain as much education as possible . Education allows kids to learn . Learning allows kids to gain ambitions . Ambitions allow kids to live and strive for something everyday . Too many times Yolngu have been let down by lack of opportunities . But it is time this stops . Think of ways -- with all the money we have , there surely are ways . Setting up boarding houses for Yolngu interstate ? More programs promoting education ? These are just some suggestions , and I 'm not even a politician ! Read more Our family , for example , have been rejected by private housing rental in Adelaide more than 20 times . Yet we have seen other people being approved after us . I am not suggesting racism or discrimination . But why is it that under Yolngu we are allowed to be constantly rejected ; yet other families are allowed to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bigger house , to allow other Yolngu kids to board and go to school in Adelaide . Staying with us would allow them to ease into a city lifestyle . I have seen countless times Indigenous kids from communities dropping out of boarding schools because they can not handle the transition from community to city life . There are so many more instances where Yolngu are not being provided the same opportunities to excel . We all need to work together now or else Yolngu are never going to move forward . Kids are n't getting the opportunities , and therefore resort to this constant lifestyle of drugs and alcohol . We can not sit here and say everything is fine , because at the end of the day it really is n't . We all have to focus on our future generation , these kids are our future , this country 's future ! Give them the opportunities they deserve to have . We need to work on building this pathway together with true commitment from all . |

Vivianne Miedema scored twice as hosts Netherlands beat Denmark 4-2 to become only the fourth nation to win the women 's European Championship since its inception in 1984 . Underdogs Denmark took the lead through a Nadia Nadim penalty after just five minutes of the final , but the Dutch struck back quickly , Miedema slamming home Shanice van de Sanden 's superb squared pass . Lieke Martens then put the home side in front by curling home a bouncing shot , but Pernille Harder equalised before the break , cutting in from the right and rifling the ball home with her left foot . The Dutch would not be denied however , and Sherida Spitse scored a free kick early in the second half before Miedema put the result beyond doubt with a brilliant run and finish in the 89th minute . Mandy Van den Berg is about to come on for the injured Van Es . Holland know they 've got this one wrapped up and are looking for more . Jansen is full of energy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a cross into the box and Holland work the ball around the final third . Martens is great on the ball and trying to run the clock down in the corner . The right-back ca n't go in hard for the tackle because she knows Martens will just turn her and have a run at goal but they need to do something quickly ! And this could be it ! The ball is chipped over the top and Miedema is in behind ! ! ! ! Oocha . That is inches away ! I think it may even have kissed the post on the way out . Troelsgaard hits a volley from 20 yards as the ball drops on the edge of the area . The goalkeeper was completely beaten . The crowd are urging Holland on , Petersen hits a long kick to Veenendaal by accident ... do Denmark have anything left ? Holland keep giving the ball away in the final third . Martens has a trick or two up her sleeve and is pulling them out now as Holland try to keep the ball in Denmark 's half . Miedema shields the ball in the corner but looks knackered now - Denmark have 10 minutes left to save the game . And now Van de Sanden is away on the right again ! She 's still got loads of energy left but Denmark recover and block the cross . Van der Gragt is booked for one of the most cynical fouls you 'll see all season @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ send the cavalry into the box and will likely aim this ball as close to the goalkeeper as they can ... Harder chases the ball to stop it going out of play , Janssen wins it back but is n't strong enough on the ball and loses it straight back . Harder passes inside and the striker fires a quick shot first time at goal but it 's just wide and a little high . So close to an equaliser ! Holland have Denmark stretched and nervous and are putting attacks together really well . Ole ! Van Es has nutmegged a defender , drawing her in and nicking the ball between her legs by the corner flag . Her cross is dealt with better by other defenders . Janssen is on for Van Lunteren who does n't seem to have recovered from that injury she picked up in the first half . Holland 3 ( Spitse 51 ' ) - 2 Denmark It 's Spitse ! She hits the ball low and hard into the corner and the goalkeeper stands completely still in the middle of her goal . It 's a well placed shot but the goalkeeper has had an absolute nightmare there and appears to have been put off by another player running across her line of vision . A Denmark defender also turns her back and jumps out of the way of the shot . Holland have the lead . Van de Donk gets a little nudge from behind and goes down on the edge of the box ( Beckham territory again ) . Spitse is lining up the kick , Van de Donk is there too . One @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2 That was the best 45 minutes of women 's football she 's ever seen , apparently . It has actually been really entertaining but most of Holland 's games in this tournament have been great fun . Van de Sanden , Martens and Groenen are all really exciting to watch and Harder has been tearing the Dutch defence apart . More of the same in the second half would be lovely . Nadim is booked for dissent and to be fair to her , the referee 's been harsh here . Nadim has to battle hard against a much bigger defender , the two have their arms locked and Nadim holds her off well ... and the free-kick goes to Holland . Nadim mouths off , the ref does n't like it and awards the prize of a booking . Denmark are playing with a really deep defensive line and sort of have to what with Holland @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into the game since going 2-1 down and are probably the better side at the moment . Holland 's defence and attack are quite disjointed . They 're attacking with about four players and defending with five or six . The midfield is n't really in play at the moment and the ball is either in defence or attack . Van Lunteren has hurt herself while blocking a shot in the box . Her studs seem to get stuck and she might have jarred her knee . Holland 2 - 2 ( Harder 33 ' ) Denmark Holland 's offside trap is all over the place here and Harder has most of the pitch to run into with nobody near . The defender comes across , she cuts inside and rifles a low shot into the bottom corner . She 's now the second highest scorer of all time for her country . Counter-attack from Holland . Space opens up in the final third , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the goalkeeper is nearly blocked by the rushing van de Sanden . They get away with it this time . Denmark attack quickly . Chance for Denmark ! Nadim is in on goal , beats the offside trap and goes round Veenendaal ... who gets a hand to the ball and forces the striker out wide . Nadim has to go backwards and Holland get their defence in order . Holland 2 ( Martens 28 ' ) - 1 Denmark Credit : GETTY IMAGES Where did that come from ? ! Lieke Martens has just pulled a goal out of nothing . She turns on the edge of the box , takes the ball with her in one movement , controlling it and going around her marker and then picks a spot in the bottom right of the goal . The net bulges and the crowd goes wild . The goalie should actually probably do better ... but the ball bounces right in front of her ... but let 's not take @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 25 mins - Holland 1 - 1 Denmark Great skill by Harder on the left of the box . She dribbles past the right-back , gets to the byline and puts the ball across the box but the striker ca n't get in at it . Van de Sanden is away down the right now ! Nobody can get close - she 's way too quick for the Danish left-back . This game has been played at an absolutely mental pace so far . The referee comes over to book Groenen as she is half a day late for a challenge on Veje on the left wing by the half way line . MARTENS IS AT THE BACK POST ! Saved ! Again it 's van ed Sande who pulls the strings , sends a clever , low cross into the area and Martens is there to shoot . She does n't get the kind of connection needed to beat the goalkeeper . FOUL THROW KLAXON . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ throwing ways . Denmark win a free-kick about 35 yards out , Harder stands over it ... and chips straight to the goalkeeper . Poor .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'opt out of' followed by a gerund phrase 'making any decisions', which does not involve a causer and causee relationship or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The subject 'it' is not performing an action on an object to cause them to move out of or prevent them from an action.

Justin Cumberlege , partner with healthcare law specialist Cripps , explains how general practice is changing and what he has learned whilst working with GP federations If the partners in your practice who trained to practice medicine thought that was the skill required to get them through their working lives it 's becoming self-evident that this is changing , and rapidly . In this article I want to share some experiences we have gathered while acting for GP federations and integrated care organisations which have embraced change to their advantage , as opposed to waiting to be forced to change . In the past it has been possible to opt out of making any decisions on the future of the practice other than appointing new partners and staff , dealing with retirements and , perhaps , some property issues . For example , by default a practice became a GMS practice , by default the PCT or FHSA installed a preferred IT system and , by default , there were services practices provided and others they did not because they did not opt in . Today the ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ means the practice will no longer be sustainable . Although these are the practices which most need to change to survive in fact it is the larger practices , with several partners , which are looking at the political landscape and seeing the changes -- and opportunities -- which are out there . With the publication of the General Practice Forward View there is clarity as to the intentions of NHS England in relation to the development of general practice and encouragement with a real terms 14% increase in spending and one-off , five-year investment of ? 500m to support transformation . Should you embrace change ? With the comfort blanket of the status quo being pulled away there is now no alternative ; looking at , and developing , the best of the changes is the way forward many are choosing . We are working with groups of GPs who are developing plans to work differently together and are being supported by gaining access to the additional funding as well as bidding for , and winning , contracts for the provision of population-wide services . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , serving populations of 30,000 -- 50,000 people alone or by joining with other practices . There 's an immediate advantage to be had in working with other practices and sharing knowledge and expertise . Furthermore , practices can share recruitment and training of staff and pool back office functions such as pay roll and they can bulk buy supplies and may obtain discounts due to the increase in quantities . Finding that working together on small things is helpful , practices are taking the next steps of developing areas that can be jointly managed to benefit patients and to increase revenues -- such as offering services which are currently hospital-based . Armed with the encouragement given by the GP Forward View groups of practices which have organised themselves into federations have worked with their CCGs to deliver services at primary care level and have been properly paid for these . This is also a vehicle to resist ' contract creep ' where practices are asked to do more and more within the global sum payment . With a united voice GPs are able to demonstrate that these are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as to suggest additional services which could be delivered in the community by them . Our brand has evolved and grown over the past 11 years -- today we are a market leading healthcare publisher who produce monthly publications , websites , events and other targeted information , specifically for practice managers , GP partners and the other decision makers responsible for practice management We here at Practice Business pride ourselves in creating solutions for suppliers to deliver their message in the most effective and interesting way possible .

The final blow comes when Susan announces that she wants to leave and live with her dad and Mar-nee full-time . When Courtney is unexpectedly offered a job in seaside Cornwall , she heads off for a summer of second chances and a string of predictable incidents that speed by on a soapy froth . Then Tony , the gorgeous town Lothario with a history , appears on the scene .

" You have to get it down very fast - essentially the moment the hearing 's over is when they want the drawing , " she tells the BBC . Image copyrightGetty ImagesImage caption A photojournalist takes a photo of a courtroom sketch of Taylor Swift She says the least amount of time she 's had to do a sketch is about half an hour , although " an hour is more typical " . As if the time pressure is n't bad enough - sometimes courtrooms are so crowded the artists can hardly see the person they 're meant to be drawing . " The best hearings are without a jury , when the judge may allow the artist to sit in the jury box - then you 're actually looking at the faces of the people you 're drawing , " Ms Cornell says . " However , if you 're coming in for a hearing you 're going to be put in the public area - in which case you 're looking at the back of everyone 's heads . Image @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ opening proceedings In those cases , she says , court artists need to be good at capturing a person 's face from quick glances . " He may turn to speak to his attorney before the judge comes in , for 30 seconds - you may see his face when he walks in through the door and turns to face the front - those are the moments you wait for so you can capture their likeness . " In the case of the Bill Cosby trial , she was designated a seat behind a pillar - which she describes as " drawing under the very worst of circumstances " . Luckily , she had practised drawing him during the pre-trial hearings where she was allowed in the jury box - " so I could draw him very well with just brief glimpses " . If you think US court artists have a tough job , spare a thought for their cousins across the pond . In the UK , most courtrooms ban cameras - and artists @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the 1925 criminal justice act . The artists have to make notes during the hearings - and then draw their impressions from memory . Julia Quenzler , a court artist in the UK , told the BBC in a previous interview that she would write brief notes about the hair , facial features , clothing and body language of the main players , before scuttling off to the press room to commit the image to paper . Many judges are against the idea , arguing that that it will change how people behave in court , intimidate witnesses , and make judges and lawyers more likely to perform for the cameras . Others though argue that cameras would allow more transparency - and give the public a better insight into how the judiciary operates . Ms Cornell argues that " photos are very unfair in the courtroom , where there 's supposed to be a presumption of innocence " . Sketches are less intrusive , and capture " a combination of moments rather than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ someone 's expression can be taken out of context , she says . Court sketches are like " drawing with your heart - and a camera does n't have a heart " . For journalists , there 's one other benefit of knowing a courtroom artist . When the White House banned cameras from some of its press briefings , CNN sent Mr Hennessy there instead . His sketches of White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer attracted a fair amount of media attention , and he said a lot of journalists " kind of got a kick out of seeing me " in a room where cameras were n't allowed . Image copyrightWilliam Hennessy Jr So it 's fair to say that even though some court sketches go viral for all the wrong reasons , journalists will keep sending artists to places where cameras are forbidden . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pulled Churchill out of running' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'running' here refers to the act of participating in the race, not a verbal predicate. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pulled Churchill out of running' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'running' here is part of the noun phrase 'running on the softened ground', not a gerundive verb form indicating an action. Therefore, it does not meet the criteria for the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'got out of doing' does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a way of avoiding an obligation without the specific causative semantics required by the construction.

Most Americans do n't know it exists . Primetime US news refers to it as an " under-the-radar company " . Unlike Fox News and Rupert Murdoch , virtually no one outside of business circles could name its CEO . And yet , Sinclair Media Group is the owner of the largest number of TV stations in America . " Sinclair 's probably the most dangerous company most people have never heard of , " said Michael Copps , the George W Bush-appointed former chairman of Federal Communications Commission ( FCC ) , the top US broadcast regulator . John Oliver -- host of HBO 's weekly satirical show Last Week Tonight -- used a similar line when he introduced an 18-minute segment on Sinclair last month by referring to it as " maybe the most influential media company you never heard of " . But that is beginning to change . Sinclair 's size , rightwing politics and close connections to Donald Trump 's White House are starting to attract attention . Democrats are wading in to the fray and demanding answers over Sinclair 's close ties to the Trump administration , which , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ treatment . Read more The New York Times refers to the group as a " conservative giant " that , since the Bush presidency , has used its 173 television stations " to advance a mostly right-leaning agenda " . The Washington Post describes it as a " company with a long history of favoring conservative causes and candidates on its stations ' newscasts " . More recently , Sinclair has added a website , Circa , to its portfolio . But not any old website . Circa has been described as " the new Breitbart " and a favorite among White House aides who wish to platform news to a friendly source ( a process otherwise known as " leaking " ) . As the US news site the Root put it : " What if Breitbart and Fox News had a couple of babies ? What if they grew up to be a cool , slicker version of their parents and started becoming more powerful ? Meet Sinclair and Circa -- @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ anxiety in America over the rise of Sinclair stems from the belief the company 's close connections to Trump have allowed it to skirt market regulations . Already the biggest broadcaster in the country , Sinclair is poised to make its biggest move yet . If the FCC approves Sinclair 's $3.9bn purchase of an additional 42 stations , it would reach into the homes of almost three-quarters of Americans . Another cause for concern , and increased scrutiny , is what 's seen as the company 's pronounced political agenda . Sinclair forces its local stations to run pro-Trump " news " segments . In April , they hired Boris Epshteyn , a former Trump campaign spokesman and member of the White House press office , as its chief political analyst . His " must-run " 10-minute political commentary segments unsurprisingly hewed closely to the Trump administration 's message . The news and analysis website Slate , referring to Epshteyn 's contributions , said : " As far as propaganda goes , this is pure , industrial-strength stuff . " Some local stations have reportedly chafed at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sinclair 's management says the packages are necessary to provide viewers with diverse viewpoints as a counterweight to progressive leanings they 're convinced are held by the media , including the staff of their own local stations . " Ninety-nine-point-nine percent of the media is left of center , " David Smith , then Sinclair 's CEO , told Rolling Stone in 2005 . But Sinclair 's politics is n't restricted to Epshteyn 's contributions . It has a long history of airing material which has often been controversial , and for which it has been sanctioned in the past -- all the while purporting to simply report the " news " . While it does n't have the cultural cachet of major conservative networks like Fox News , Sinclair 's influence is more subtle . Unlike Fox News , which brands itself clearly and proudly , most viewers of Sinclair 's local stations have no idea who owns them since they are not branded as part of the Sinclair network . But it is their intended purchase of a collection of new stations owned by Tribune @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Los Angeles Times -- that has thrust them into the national spotlight unlike ever before . " It used to be a few years ago there were some mergers that were unthinkable , " Copps , now with the DC-based watchdog group Common Cause , told the Guardian . " We 're in a period now when everything 's so wild that nothing is unthinkable . " The figure that looms large behind Sinclair is David Smith , whose father founded the company in the Nixon era . Smith recently ended his 28-year reign as CEO , and along with his brothers maintains what an industry publication called " iron-clad control " of the billion-dollar media empire as well as the company 's majority financial interest . The Smith family , based in and around Baltimore , likes to keep a low profile -- they give few interviews and David Smith has no Wikipedia page . " We would tend to maintain as much anonymity as we can , " he told the Baltimore Sun in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the press . During last year 's presidential campaign , Sinclair conducted zero interviews with Clinton . But it touted 15 " exclusive " ones with Trump , which aired mostly in critical swing states in the final months of the election and without any commentary , despite the copious fact-checking Trump interviews tend to require . Sinclair has insisted it had no special arrangement with the Trump campaign and that Clinton simply did not make herself available to them . Clinton campaign officials say they spurned Sinclair for a reason , though her vice-presidential nominee , Tim Kaine , gave a handful interviews to Sinclair stations . According to Politico , Trump 's son-in-law Jared Kushner told a room full of Manhattan business executives that the campaign had struck a deal with Sinclair to secure better coverage in the states where they needed spots most . The FCC chairman , Ajit Pai , testifies in the House of Representatives . Photograph : Kevin Lamarque/Reuters The manner in which Sinclair looks set to expand -- specifically , with Trump paving the way -- is causing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the concern is Ajit Pai , the man Trump appointed as head of the country 's top broadcasting regulator , the FCC . Since he began work in January , Pai has been busy relaxing the protections for local broadcasting that had previously limited Sinclair 's expansion . Trump 's new-look FCC has moved swiftly to clear the hurdles for Sinclair 's proposed takeover of Tribune . A day before Trump was inaugurated , Smith invited Pai to a meeting at the Washington-area headquarters of the company 's ABC affiliate . Within 10 days of taking over the FCC , a New York Times investigation found , Pai had already relaxed a restriction on TV stations ' sharing of resources , including ad revenue -- precisely the topic Smith had met with Pai about . Since January , the Times report found , " Pai has undertaken a deregulatory blitz enacting or proposing a wishlist of fundamental policy changes advocated by Mr Smith and his company . " Tom Wheeler , Pai 's predecessor at the FCC , who is now at the Brookings Institution @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Trump FCC moved and how they moved without any real opportunity for public comment and without any following of procedural due process ... So you look at that kind of behavior and scratch your head . " To better understand such behavior and where it 's leading , it helps to consider where Sinclair began . David Smith 's father , Julian Sinclair Smith , described by the company 's official history as " patriarch to the Smith brothers " , founded the company in 1971 , and kept a hand in the business until his death , following a battle with Parkinson 's , in 1993 . But the company 's greatest evolutionary changes began around 1990 , when the brothers bought up the remainder of their parents ' stock , kicking off an extended buying spree that would last decades . As Sinclair grew , so did the scrutiny . And increasingly , the Smith brothers found themselves not just the broadcasters , but the subject of the news . In 1996 , David Smith was arrested on suspicion of soliciting a prostitute @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sex on him " in a Mercedes owned by Sinclair . More disturbing to critics than the misdemeanor sex offense , though , was the unusual way he got out of doing the court-ordered community service that resulted from his plea bargain in the case : by having his broadcasting company do what amounted to publicity hits for local drug counseling programs , packaged as news . LuAnne Canipe , a former reporter for Sinclair , said the incident was also indicative of a broader culture of office sexism . " Let 's just say the arrest of the CEO was part of a sexual atmosphere that trickled down to different levels in the company , " said Canipe , who left Sinclair in 1998 . " There was an improper work environment . I think that because of what he did , there was a feeling that everything was fair game . " The growth of Sinclair may have passed below the radar , but not past another media mogul -- Rupert Murdoch , chairman and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ insisted it has no interest in competing with national cable news platforms like Murdoch 's , industry observers say the mogul is already planning a strategy to combat the rise of a potential rival . After a failed attempt to outbid Sinclair for Tribune , Murdoch is threatening a switch of Fox 's broadcast affiliates from Sinclair-owned stations to those of a smaller independent broadcaster . But it is n't just Sinclair 's business interests that are a cause of creeping concern -- its political affiliations could be , too . Take the case the former congressman Bob Ehrlich , a Maryland Republican who later become governor . After pressing the FCC to fast-track Sinclair 's request to acquire more stations , Ehrlich enjoyed company perks like the frequent use of a Sinclair executive 's luxury helicopter , as the Baltimore Sun reported in 2002 . By the time full details of the report emerged , Ehrlich had already won his gubernatorial election . In 2004 , Sinclair leadership reportedly ordered its local affiliate stations to air a documentary critical of the Democratic presidential nominee , John @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that Kerry had exaggerated his record as a swift-boat officer in the Vietnam war . A Washington DC bureau chief publicly resisted and was fired for the offense . The incident sent ripples through its stations , but Sinclair said media reports about the controversy exaggerated the issue . Around the same time , as George W Bush faced criticism over the faltering war in Iraq , Sinclair ordered seven of its stations not to run an episode of Nightline in which host Ted Koppel read the names of every American soldier killed in the war , saying it " undermined the efforts of the United States in Iraq " . The decision sparked a major backlash , including from the Republican senator John McCain , a Vietnam war veteran , who wrote a letter to David Smith calling the decision " unpatriotic " and " a gross disservice to the public , and to the men and women of the United States Armed Forces " . Other times , Sinclair 's influence has been more ambiguous . When the Guardian reporter Ben Jacobs was assaulted by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of his election in Montana , the local NBC affiliate , recently purchased by Sinclair , refused to air Jacobs 's audio recording of the incident , despite entreaties from NBC executives in New York . The local news director said she was not influenced by Sinclair , noting the purchase was not yet complete . Gianforte won the election , and , the day after the Montana Republican was charged with assault , Sinclair 's vice-president and director Fred Smith donated $1,000 to him . Meanwhile , with its 2015 purchase of Circa , a mobile aggregated news app , Sinclair has control for the first time of a national text-based news outlet . Backed by a staff of 70 , Sinclair transformed the app into conservative-leaning platform offering thinly sourced scoops -- often written without any author byline other than " Circa staff " -- that frequently seem to advance the Trump administration 's agenda du jour . Trump and his aides have returned the favor by linking to Circa 's content , and it 's become a favorite source of Sean Hannity , Fox News 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ any political orientation , noting that it does not carry op-eds . ) The rise of Sinclair has also recently stirred the Democrats in Washington , who have become increasingly vocal on the issue . This summer , Senator Maria Cantwell led a group of colleagues in urging commerce and judiciary leaders to carefully examine the pending deal with Tribune , citing concern " about the level of media concentration this merger creates , and its impact on the public interest " , according to the lawmakers ' June letter . And this week , House Democrats in top FCC oversight positions wrote directly to the FCC 's Pai expressing their dismay at what they perceive to be a " pattern " of preferential treatment toward Sinclair . In addition to changes paving the way for Sinclair 's merger , Pai 's FCC has proposed eliminating one of its most fundamental rules , which requires local news stations to actually have a local studio where they broadcast the news . Now , the agency seems poised to do away with local broadcast protections , which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cutting local staff and to impose more editorial input from corporate headquarters . And that means many more Americans will be hearing from the most dangerous company most people have never heard of -- whether they know it or not . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'opted out of having' which is a different construction where 'opted out of' is followed by a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb and 'out of'. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as defined for the transitive out of -ing construction.

A campaign group claims schoolgirls who have opted out of having the human papillomavirus ( HPV ) vaccination are being ' intimidated and pressured ' from nurses and school staff . The Alliance for Natural Health International ( ANHI ) has revealed it has received reports of tension between officials and parents , which it claims is placing ' unwarranted stress ' on youngsters and their families . The group also alleges ' girls are being unfairly questioned about their reasons for not consenting to the vaccine with a view to getting children to change their minds and going against the will of their parent(s) or guardian . ' This has prompted the international group , which promotes natural healthcare approaches , to share a letter template for parents who are refusing the anti-cancer vaccine to send to schools . The latest development comes following headlines about teenage girls who claim they have suffered devastating side-effects after having the HPV vaccine - including paralysis and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome . ANHI says it has received reports of schoolgirls being ' intimidated and pressured ' to have the HPV virus if they refuse ( stock @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ HPV ROW Melinda Messenger was accused of scare-mongering after revealing she would n't be giving her teenage daughter the HPV vaccine . The TV personality revealed her strong views on the issue on This Morning last year and was criticised by the show 's resident doctor , Dr Christ Steele . She expressed her concern over daughter , Evie , 13 , having it following a link between the jab and a range of chronic illnesses . Viewers branded her decision ' irresponsible ' and Melinda said hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield were also overly hostile towards her , both on stage and off . It is believed there was an attempt by the UK Public Health Association to ban her from even appearing on the show . ANHI uploaded a post to its website that said : ' With the summer holidays nearing their end in both England and Wales ( Scotland 's already started back ) and with the new school year almost upon us , it may be off many parents ' radar that the next push for HPV vaccination @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' We 've been receiving reports of intimidation and undue pressure from nurses and school staff that places unwarranted stress on schoolgirls who have opted out of HPV vaccination . ' ANHI also provided a link to the letter which was written by The UK Association of HPV Vaccine Injured Daughters ( AHVID ) . The suggested wording makes clear that both parents and child have discussed the issue . The letter includes a signature from the parent and daughter and reference to a copy of the correspondence having been forwarded to a solicitor . HPV has been linked to cervical cancer and , under an NHS scheme introduced in 2008 , all girls aged 12 to 15 are offered the vaccine against it . Last year , the parents of Ruby Shallom , 16 , from Bracknell , Berkshire , claim she was left paralysed in three limbs and in hospital on a drip after having the HPV vaccine . And in May , 13-year-old Zara Beattie , from Wigton , spoke out about her agony as she was left wheelchair-bound and feeling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ again her parents pin the blame on . However , health officials across the world have always strongly denied there are any nervous system affects - and recent research appears to confirm this . What is the HPV vaccine ? The vaccine protects against HPV which causes cervical cancer - the most common cancer in women under 35 - and is thought to save some 400 lives each year . As with any vaccine , there is a very small chance of a severe allergic reaction with the HPV jab , according to the Vaccine Knowledge Project at the University of Oxford . HPV is the most common sexually-transmitted infection . In fact , almost every sexually active man or woman will get it during their lifetime . It is spread through sex and oral sex with someone who has the virus , regardless of whether they show symptoms . Many people never show symptoms , and the majority of cases go away without treatment .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'opted out of having' which is a different construction where 'opted out of' is followed by a gerund phrase, but lacks the necessary V1 and NP object structure characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the construction.

A campaign group claims schoolgirls who have opted out of having the human papillomavirus ( HPV ) vaccination are being ' intimidated and pressured ' from nurses and school staff . The Alliance for Natural Health International ( ANHI ) has revealed it has received reports of tension between officials and parents , which it claims is placing ' unwarranted stress ' on youngsters and their families . The group also alleges ' girls are being unfairly questioned about their reasons for not consenting to the vaccine with a view to getting children to change their minds and going against the will of their parent(s) or guardian . ' This has prompted the international group , which promotes natural healthcare approaches , to share a letter template for parents who are refusing the anti-cancer vaccine to send to schools . The latest development comes following headlines about teenage girls who claim they have suffered devastating side-effects after having the HPV vaccine - including paralysis and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome . ANHI says it has received reports of schoolgirls being ' intimidated and pressured ' to have the HPV virus if they refuse ( stock @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ HPV ROW Melinda Messenger was accused of scare-mongering after revealing she would n't be giving her teenage daughter the HPV vaccine . The TV personality revealed her strong views on the issue on This Morning last year and was criticised by the show 's resident doctor , Dr Christ Steele . She expressed her concern over daughter , Evie , 13 , having it following a link between the jab and a range of chronic illnesses . Viewers branded her decision ' irresponsible ' and Melinda said hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield were also overly hostile towards her , both on stage and off . It is believed there was an attempt by the UK Public Health Association to ban her from even appearing on the show . ANHI uploaded a post to its website that said : ' With the summer holidays nearing their end in both England and Wales ( Scotland 's already started back ) and with the new school year almost upon us , it may be off many parents ' radar that the next push for HPV vaccination @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' We 've been receiving reports of intimidation and undue pressure from nurses and school staff that places unwarranted stress on schoolgirls who have opted out of HPV vaccination . ' ANHI also provided a link to the letter which was written by The UK Association of HPV Vaccine Injured Daughters ( AHVID ) . The suggested wording makes clear that both parents and child have discussed the issue . The letter includes a signature from the parent and daughter and reference to a copy of the correspondence having been forwarded to a solicitor . HPV has been linked to cervical cancer and , under an NHS scheme introduced in 2008 , all girls aged 12 to 15 are offered the vaccine against it . Last year , the parents of Ruby Shallom , 16 , from Bracknell , Berkshire , claim she was left paralysed in three limbs and in hospital on a drip after having the HPV vaccine .

However , health officials across the world have always strongly denied there are any nervous system affects - and recent research appears to confirm this . What is the HPV vaccine ? The vaccine protects against HPV which causes cervical cancer - the most common cancer in women under 35 - and is thought to save some 400 lives each year . As with any vaccine , there is a very small chance of a severe allergic reaction with the HPV jab , according to the Vaccine Knowledge Project at the University of Oxford . HPV is the most common sexually-transmitted infection . In fact , almost every sexually active man or woman will get it during their lifetime . It is spread through sex and oral sex with someone who has the virus , regardless of whether they show symptoms .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes people drinking prosecco out of objects (anything, an old boot), which does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Obviously , cans have an advantage in terms of transportability , and are ideal to take on a picnic or to festivals , where glass is banned . Being lighter than glass , they leave less of a carbon footprint , plus seven out of every 10 cans are now recycled ; they 're popular with retailers , too , because they take up less shelf space . Craft beer , it seems to me , suits canning best both from the point of view that it helps to preserve the bright flavours of today 's most used hops , protecting them from light damage , and offers a great backdrop for millennial-friendly designs . London brewery Beavertown has been particularly successful at exploiting the branding opportunities with beers such as its unfiltered unpasteurised 8 Ball Rye IPA ( ? 2.69 for a 330ml can at thepipstop.co.uk , or ? 36 for a case of 12 at Oddbins ; 6.2% abv ) , which retains all its big , ballsy ( well , obvs ) flavours Cider works well in cans , too . Would we reach out to grab Friels First Press Vintage Cider ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 5.25 at Tesco ; ) if it did n't have that retro label ? I suspect not , though it is a good , strong ( 7.4% ) , medium-dry cider that would n't be out of place in a cider pub . Cans can also add an element of cool ( and profit ) to a soft drink , as many manufacturers are discovering . I ca n't say I 'm overimpressed with Sparkling Can-O-Water ( ? 1 a 330ml can from Ocado ) -- give me Perrier any day -- but Dalston 's Honestly Made Lemonade ( ? 1.19 a 330ml can , or ? 3.99 for four , also from Ocado ) is both more natural-tasting and lower in sugar ( 6.1g per 100ml ) than better-known equivalents such as San Pellegrino Limonata ( 8.9g ) . And few are going to feel short-changed by the fact that their stylish Nix And Kix Cucumber Mint ( ? 1.25 for a 250ml can from Ocado ) , with its spicy dash of chilli , does n't feature any alcohol . |

The world of Westeros was once cruel , messy and utterly unpredictable , killing off heroes with a random sweep of a sword . Now , it all feels so preposterously safe . What a betrayal of George RR Martin -- and fans everywhere The world of Westeros was once cruel , messy and utterly unpredictable , killing off heroes with a random sweep of a sword . Now , it all feels so preposterously safe . What a betrayal of George RR Martin -- and fans everywhere The most telling moment in Game of Thrones does n't concern a battle but a beetle . In the show 's fourth season , while he is awaiting a trial that will determine whether he gets his head lopped off for murdering his nephew , Tyrion Lannister reminds his brother Jaime of their cousin Orson . Dropped on his head as a child , Orson had from that time onwards spent his days brainlessly crushing beetles @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , desperately wanted to know what motivated Orson in his continued act of beetle-cide . " I had to know because it was horrible that all these beetles should be dying for no reason , " he explained . Yet long after Orson had met his own fate -- kicked in the chest by a mule -- the answer to this conundrum was still unclear . The answer , though , was staring Tyrion right in his scarred face : there was none . In Game of Thrones , horrible stuff can happen without an underlying reason or logic . There is no long arc of history bending towards justice . Best-laid plans can be disrupted by the sudden swish of a broadsword . The world of Westeros is cruel , violent and chaotic , and if you want to survive in it , you need to recognise that and act accordingly ( chaos is a ladder , after all ) . That dark worldview is something Game of Thrones and its showrunners , David Benioff and DB Weiss , have practised as well as preached . Over @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of moments that underlined that sense of chaos and cruelty . Chief among them , of course , are the execution of Ned Stark , Westeros ' most outwardly moral character , and the grand guignol spectacle of the Red Wedding . But you could also add to the list the head-squishing of Oberyn Martell , the sacrifice of Shireen Baratheon by her own father or any of the many heinous acts committed by Ramsay Bolton during his reign of terror in the North . These moments may have led some to deem Game of Thrones -- and its creator George RR Martin -- too sadistic , but it 's also what made the show a uniquely jolting watch . Here was a series where characters we had followed across seasons and continents could be brutally swept off the board at a second 's notice . But this ruthlessness was n't just a gimmick -- it felt consistent with the harsh and messy world that had been constructed , where shallow noblemen squabbled over their fiefdoms , while on the other side of the Wall an all-consuming force of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Did we really think anyone significant would be burned to a crisp during Daenerys ' dragon assault on the Lannister forces ? Photograph : HBO But as the show gallops towards its conclusion , something seems to have changed . Game of Thrones has become risk-averse . Where once no one was safe , now its lead characters are wrapped in cotton wool , or even worse , able to be brought back from the dead like Jon Snow . Moments of action pass by without any sense that anyone important is in any real danger : did we really think anyone significant would be burned to a crisp during Daenerys ' dragon assault on the Lannister forces ? Did anyone expect the cliffhanger at the end of that episode to result in anything other than Jaime and Bronn surviving their plunge into a very deep-looking lake ? Read more Worse , as Benioff and Weiss attempt to cram a mammoth conclusion to their epic saga into a mere 13 episodes , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ little too tidy . Witness the preposterous , multi-stranded plan put together by Jon Snow to capture a White Walker and bring it back to prove to Cersei that their threat is real . It required a boatload of contrivances : Tyrion and Davos being able to sneak in and out of King 's Landing without anyone important noticing them , bar a pair of idiot guards ; Davos managing to pick up the long-lost Gendry on his jaunt to Lannister territory ; and Jon Snow happening upon the Bannerhood of Brothers and the Hound at the Eastwatch jail . And that 's ignoring all the geographical sorcery that seems to be getting characters across continents in a matter of minutes where once it would have taken entire seasons . This is n't to say that Game of Thrones has become a bad show as such . It still provides the sort of large-scale thrills that other shows ca n't come close to matching . But at this stage it is a different show to the one we were initially sold : more conventional , closer to the fantastical @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be subverting . ( It does seem notable that GoT 's drift towards neatness has come at the exact point the show went beyond the source material ) . Who knows , perhaps all this tidiness is some genius ploy to lull fans in before unleashing some random moment of terror . Perhaps Sunday 's episode will end with the Night 's King parading Gendry 's head around on a spike . But that seems highly doubtful . More likely is that Jon 's ruse will go to plan , another piece slid into place as the show hurtles towards its final face-off . Does a straightforwardly happy ending beckon ? I hope not : that would be a betrayal to a show that is at its best when it is senselessly smashing beetles . |

The scrapping of Boris Johnson 's Garden Bridge project has exposed a ? 940m bill for his " vanity projects " as London mayor and prompteda senior Labour figure to say her party was partly to blame . The figure is the total spent on eight projects closely associated with the former mayor , including the pedestrian bridge for the Thames that was abandoned this week , which either failed or whose value for money has been questioned . His office insisted that the schemes represented important investments and that to describe them as vanity projects was " ignorant and wrong " . Three Johnson projects ended in failure at a cost of more than ? 57.5m : the Garden Bridge ; the purchase of water cannon ; and the Thames estuary airport . Five others : the new Routemaster bus ; hire bikes ; the Emirates Air Line cable car ; the conversion of the Olympic stadium and the ArcelorMittal Orbit helter-skelter , all did go ahead at a combined cost of more than ? 900m . They have runinto problemsafter turning out to be far more expensive than promised . The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Garden Bridge project led to its abandonment , said she was shocked at how " irresponsible " Johnson was with public money . But during her review she was also struck by the lack of scrutiny of his profligate spending decisions when mayor . " I kept thinking how the hell was he allowed to get away with this , " Hodge told the Guardian . Hodge , a former chair of the Commons public accounts committee , said the Labour government she served in should have put in place more checks on mayoral powers when it set up the post in the late 1990s . " When Tony Blair and local government minster Nick Raysnford set it up they did n't want it to have the bureaucratic constraints of a local authority . So in a sense we gave him Johnson the opportunity . " Johnson 's office contrasted his legacy with the lack of achievement to date of Sadiq Khan . " He has no vision for the city whatsoever ... Ken Livingstone when mayor blew ? 34m on a West London tram and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ turned out to be wholly impractical but at least he had ambition and guts . " Labour assembly member Tom Copley said that now Johnson was foreign secretary there was even less scope to scrutinise past decisions .

Transport for London paid ? 282.6m for a fleet of 800 of the hop-on , hop-off buses that were billed by Johnson as an environmentally friendly version of the old Routemaster . This was considerably more per bus than the mayor originally suggested . The vehicles were first dubbed " Boris buses " but then " saunas on wheels " after temperatures of 38C were recorded on board . New windows had to be put in at an extra cost of ? 2m . According to Martin Hoscik , editor of MayorWatch , the new Routemasters " have no market outside London " . Johnson 's office says : " The new Routemasters came out of existing TfL bus budgets and are already classics of UK manufacture and design . They are made in Ballymena and are to be contrasted with Ken Livingstone 's cyclist-menacing bendy buses that were made in Germany . " Boris @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in June 2012 .

But it left TfL to mask up the ? 24m difference for what critics said amounts to little more than advertising gimmick for the airline . Sky-high ticket prices of ? 7 for a return , more than double the equivalent bus fare , means the project does now pay for itself . . Johnson 's office is unrepentant . " The cable car was mostly funded by sponsorship and has helped considerably to regenerate the docks , " it said .

The term Boris bikes was one of the Oxford dictionary 's words of the year when the scheme was launched in 2010 , despite initial sponsorship by Barclays and later Santander . Johnson 's office says : " The hire bikes are a triumph for the city . Their cost has been greatly reduced by sponsorship from Santander . " However , they were meant to come in at no cost to the public but by last year had cost taxpayers a cumulative ? 225m . There were also concerns about the lack of transparency around the initial sponsorship deal , which was kept secret for three years before it emerged that Barclays was able to claw back ? 2m it put in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the costs , leaving TFL with an ? 11m annual bill , according to a figures unearthed by the Taxpayers Alliance in 2013 . An equivalent scheme in Paris makes ? 12m a year for the city . Transport for London set aside ? 5.2m on a feasibility schemes for an airport in the Thames estuary that few others thought feasible as ministers examined how to expand airport capacity in London . Johnson backed a glossy vision by the architects Foster + Partners for a four-runway airport island in a key conservation area for birds but it was never a realistic prospect in a battle won by Heathrow over Gatwick .

Johnson 's office said : " It was entirely the decision of Labour to build a stadium that needed to be retrofitted . Is the Guardian seriously suggesting that we should have left it as it was ? " This was conceived after Johnson bumped into the steel magnate Lakshmi Mittal at a cloakroom at the World Economic Forum at Davos . The original Anish Kapoor tower was commissioned at a ? 3.1m cost to the tax payer and , in Johnson 's words , to provide " something extra ... curiosity and wonder " to the Olympic park .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'to pull out of hosting', which is a different construction. Additionally, it does not clearly convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('I've been scared out of travelling'). It involves a prevention interpretation where the subject (implied by the passive voice) is causing the object ('I') to be prevented from travelling by means of being scared. The verb 'scared' fits into the category of verbs that arouse fear, and the NP object 'I' functions as a causee. Therefore, it is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The two Victorian men from Melbourne 's west - both of whom were hit by the attacker 's car - have been discharged after receiving treatment , one reportedly for head injuries . The mother of a friend travelling with the two men told 3AW it was not until her son checked into his hotel that he was told his companions were ' involved in a terrorist attack , they are injured ' .

' Earlier , Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull said Australia stood in ' absolute resolute solidarity ' with Spain in the battle against Islamist terrorism . ' This is a global battle against terrorism , ' Mr Turnbull told reporters in Canberra on Friday . Early Friday , Catalan police posted a tweet saying they shot and killed four suspects and wounded a fifth in a resort town south of Barcelona . They said officers ' shot down the perpetrators ' to ' respond to a terrorist attack .

It was her third brush with terrorism since she began travelling around Europe three months ago but she told 3AW 's Neil Mitchell that she wo n't let it stop her from seeing the world . In June , she was put in a lockdown on the London Underground while out with friends when terrorists plowed into people on London Bridge before going on a knife rampage in nearby Borough Market . Days later , she was in Notre Dame in Paris when a police officer was stabbed outside the famous cathedral . Julia Monaco was in a shopping mall with a friend when a van plowed into pedestrians in the Las Ramblas district of Barcelona on Thursday ' I do n't feel like I want to go home , ' she told Neil Mitchell on Friday morning . ' I feel like I want to stay here and not let them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I 'm going to see what I came here to see . ' Ms Monaco and her friends Alana Reader and Julia Rocca , also from Melbourne , were in the store on Placa de Catalyuna when they saw people outside running for their lives . The doors were locked and she spoke of how she watched terrified pedestrians banging on the windows trying to get inside from the street . ' In a split second it all kind of changed and everyone just started running and panicking and running for their lives and crying and screaming and we were forced back into the store , told to get away from the windows and to get low on the ground , ' she told Nine . It was her third brush with terrorism since she began travelling around Europe three months ago .

' You just have to keep going . I 'm sure though tomorrow morning my mum will say ' come home ' , but I do n't think I 've been scared out of travelling , ' she added . Melbourne man Michael Christou was about 300m from the initial scene of the Las Ramblas carnage and was also nearby when eight people including two Australians were killed in the London Bridge van attack in June . ' I think it 's following me but you kind of come over here ( to Europe ) and you expect it to happen but you do n't let it stop you from doing what you want to do .

People react and stand around in the Las Ramblas area in Barcelona , Spain as police investigate a damaged van , believed to be the one used in the terror attack Foreign Minister Julie Bishop said 16 people were killed in the attack and at least 100 injured Las Ramblas , a street of stalls and shops that cuts through the center of Barcelona , is one of the city 's top tourist destinations . People walk down a wide , pedestrian path in the center of the street while cars can travel on either side . Police immediately cordoned off the city 's broad avenue and ordered stores and nearby Metro and train stations to close . Other witnesses also described horrific scenes and fearful crowds in the aftermath of the van attack , which has been claimed by the Islamic State . MFB Commander Graeme O'Sullivan was one of the first responders at Melbourne 's Bourke Street tragedy in January . He and his wife saw the latest carnage unfold from the rooftop of their Barcelona hotel @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ roof terrace , just the pool area , enjoying a few drinks , ' he told Nine . ' We could clearly hear thuds as the vehicle was running into people , and then a short time after that , obviously , several very loud sickening screams from the people involved down at street level . ' Mr O'Sullivan said the similarity to the Bourke Street Mall event was chilling . ' Bourke Street was n't terrorism and this appears to be , but the result is still the same , ' he told Melbourne radio 3AW . Forensic policemen arrive in the cordoned off area after a van plowed into the crowd Spain has been on a security alert one step below the maximum since June 2015 following attacks elsewhere in Europe and Africa Australian cyber safety expert Susan McLean was about 100m away as the van zigzagged down the busy avenue , mowing down pedestrians and leaving bodies strewn across the ground . ' All of a sudden there was this tidal wave of people running from both Placa de Catalunya @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ absolute terror etched on their faces , ' she told Nine Network on Friday . ' Several of them were calling ' gun , gun ' , so first of all we thought someone had been shot . ' Then they just kept sort of - it was all in Spanish , it was very difficult to understand - but they were sort of pushing us into shops . ' Ms McLean , who was separated from her husband in the panic , also said the scene reminded her of the Bourke Street Mall rampage . ' My first reaction was the Bourke Street massacre , because that is what it reminded me of - the vision of people fleeing in just such terror , ' she said . Keith Fleming , and American living in Barcelona , said he was watching television in his building on a side street just off Las Ramblas when he heard a noise and went out to the balcony to investigate . He says he saw ' women and children just running and they looked terrified . ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rolling down a store shutter , as more people raced by . He said armed police arrived and pushed everyone a full block down the street . Australian witnesses described the attack as reminiscent of the Bourke Strert Mall rampage in January ( above ) State-owned broadcaster RTVE reported that investigators think two vans were used - one for the attack and a second as a getaway vehicle . The attack in the northeastern Spanish city was the country 's deadliest since 2004 , when al-Qaeda-inspired bombers killed 192 people in coordinated attacks on Madrid 's commuter trains . Spain has been on a security alert one step below the maximum since June 2015 following attacks elsewhere in Europe and Africa . Cars , trucks and vans have been the weapon of choice in multiple extremist attacks in Europe in the last year . The most deadly was the driver of a tractor-trailer who targeted Bastille Day revelers in the southern French city of Nice in July 2016 , killing 86 people . In December 2016 , 12 people died after a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ market in Berlin . There have been multiple attacks this year in London , where a man in a rented SUV plowed into pedestrians on Westminster Bridge , killing four people before he ran onto the grounds of Parliament and stabbed an unarmed police officer to death in March . Four other men drove onto the sidewalk of London Bridge , unleashing a rampage with knives that killed eight people in June . Another man also drove into pedestrians leaving a north London mosque later in June . |

Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull has asked Australians to say a prayer for the missing seven-year-old boy in Barcelona following the chaos of the Los Ramblas attack . Families are still desperately searching for loved ones after a van ploughed into crowds on the Los Ramblas mall with seven-year-old Julian Cadman among those missing as the death toll climbs to 13 . Julian Cadman , who was born in Kent but moved to Australia three years ago , was pictured smiling hours before he was tragically separated from his mother Jom Cadman during the Las Ramblas boulevard chaos . Mr Turnbull addressed the tragic search for the seven-year-old at a Liberal Conference on Saturday asking all Australians to say a prayer for the ' little Australian boy ' .

All of us as parents know the anguish his father and his whole family is going through as they rush to seek to find him in Barcelona . ' Family and friends said they were ' beside themselves ' and were reaching out on Facebook after it was revealed seven-year-old Sydney boy Julian Cadman was missing following the terror attack in Barcelona . Share 793 shares Those who know Julian and his mother , who has been hospitalised with serious injuries in the Spanish city and is believed to be in a coma , have made increasingly desperate pleas for information via social media . ' If you know anyone in that area that you can share this with , please do so , ' Julian 's godfather , Colin Baxter , wrote on Facebook @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Auzner shared a picture of the youngster , who was born and raised in Kent , and begged followers to share it widely .

Ms Intan , who grew up in Indonesia , and had been travelling through Europe with three friends , The Sydney Morning Herald reported . Suria Intan , a bank worker from Sydney , has been seriously injured in the terror attack Ms Intan was due home this weekend , but is now lying in a Barcelona hospital bed with serious injuries . The two Victorian men from Melbourne 's west - both of whom were hit by the attacker 's car - have been discharged after receiving treatment , one reportedly for head injuries . The mother of a friend travelling with the two men told 3AW it was not until her son checked into his hotel that he was told his companions were ' involved in a terrorist attack , they are injured ' . On Friday afternoon , Foreign Minister Julie Bishop said eight Australians in total were caught up in the horror that unfolded on Thursday - the four who were injured , three who have required consular support and the one unaccounted for . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with authorities to determine the whereabouts of the one Australian unaccounted for , ' Ms Bishop told reporters in Melbourne on Friday . Ms Intan had been travelling through Europe with friends and was due home this weekend An Australian tourist is missing in Barcelona after the terror attack and four were injured Eight Australians have been affected by the Barcelona terrorist attack - including one who was hit by the van , Foreign Minister Julie Bishop said Authorities said at least 13 people were killed in Thursday 's attack - which has been claimed by Islamic State - and 100 more injured , 15 of them seriously . However , Ms Bishop said Catalonian authorities have informed her that the death toll has reached 16 . She said there have been two other attacks are related to the Las Ramblas attack - one in the resort town of Cambrils , about 120km south of Barcelona , which police thwarted . Five suspects were killed by police and six people were reportedly injured . ' At this stage there are no reports @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ' Ms Bishop said .

' Earlier , Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull said Australia stood in ' absolute resolute solidarity ' with Spain in the battle against Islamist terrorism . ' This is a global battle against terrorism , ' Mr Turnbull told reporters in Canberra on Friday . Early Friday , Catalan police posted a tweet saying they shot and killed four suspects and wounded a fifth in a resort town south of Barcelona . They said officers ' shot down the perpetrators ' to ' respond to a terrorist attack . ' It was n't immediately clear from the tweet if the five shot were suspects in the Las Ramblas attack or were allegedly targeting another location . Meanwhile , a young Australian woman spoke of how she @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Julia Monaco , 26 , from Melbourne , was in a shopping mall with a friend when a van plowed into pedestrians in the Las Ramblas district of Barcelona on Thursday . It was her third brush with terrorism since she began travelling around Europe three months ago but she told 3AW 's Neil Mitchell that she wo n't let it stop her from seeing the world . In June , she was put in a lockdown on the London Underground while out with friends when terrorists plowed into people on London Bridge before going on a knife rampage in nearby Borough Market . Days later , she was in Notre Dame in Paris when a police officer was stabbed outside the famous cathedral . Julia Monaco was in a shopping mall with a friend when a van plowed into pedestrians in the Las Ramblas district of Barcelona on Thursday ' I do n't feel like I want to go home , ' she told Neil Mitchell on Friday morning . ' I feel like I want to stay here and not let them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I 'm going to see what I came here to see . ' Ms Monaco and her friends Alana Reader and Julia Rocca , also from Melbourne , were in the store on Placa de Catalyuna when they saw people outside running for their lives . The doors were locked and she spoke of how she watched terrified pedestrians banging on the windows trying to get inside from the street . ' In a split second it all kind of changed and everyone just started running and panicking and running for their lives and crying and screaming and we were forced back into the store , told to get away from the windows and to get low on the ground , ' she told Nine . It was her third brush with terrorism since she began travelling around Europe three months ago . Pictured from left , Julia Rocca , Steph Lamb , Julia Monaco and Alana Reader on holiday in Rome Ms Monaco said those inside huddled at the back of an Urban Outfitters store and were told to lie face-down on the floor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ finally allowed to leave , they had to walk back to their hostel and avoid the numerous streets that had been closed by police . ' You just have to keep going . I 'm sure though tomorrow morning my mum will say ' come home ' , but I do n't think I 've been scared out of travelling , ' she added . Melbourne man Michael Christou was about 300m from the initial scene of the Las Ramblas carnage and was also nearby when eight people including two Australians were killed in the London Bridge van attack in June . ' I think it 's following me but you kind of come over here ( to Europe ) and you expect it to happen but you do n't let it stop you from doing what you want to do . ' Australian Adam James and his wife , who was pushed over and suffered minor injuries as they ran from the scene , were in Istanbul last year when a police bus was blown up in a terror attack . ' It 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' he said . People react and stand around in the Las Ramblas area in Barcelona , Spain as police investigate a damaged van , believed to be the one used in the terror attack Foreign Minister Julie Bishop said 16 people were killed in the attack and at least 100 injured Las Ramblas , a street of stalls and shops that cuts through the center of Barcelona , is one of the city 's top tourist destinations . People walk down a wide , pedestrian path in the center of the street while cars can travel on either side . Police immediately cordoned off the city 's broad avenue and ordered stores and nearby Metro and train stations to close . Other witnesses also described horrific scenes and fearful crowds in the aftermath of the van attack , which has been claimed by the Islamic State . MFB Commander Graeme O'Sullivan was one of the first responders at Melbourne 's Bourke Street tragedy in January . He and his wife saw the latest carnage unfold from the rooftop of their Barcelona hotel @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ roof terrace , just the pool area , enjoying a few drinks , ' he told Nine . ' We could clearly hear thuds as the vehicle was running into people , and then a short time after that , obviously , several very loud sickening screams from the people involved down at street level . ' Mr O'Sullivan said the similarity to the Bourke Street Mall event was chilling . ' Bourke Street was n't terrorism and this appears to be , but the result is still the same , ' he told Melbourne radio 3AW . Forensic policemen arrive in the cordoned off area after a van plowed into the crowd Spain has been on a security alert one step below the maximum since June 2015 following attacks elsewhere in Europe and Africa Australian cyber safety expert Susan McLean was about 100m away as the van zigzagged down the busy avenue , mowing down pedestrians and leaving bodies strewn across the ground . ' All of a sudden there was this tidal wave of people running from both Placa de Catalunya @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ absolute terror etched on their faces , ' she told Nine Network on Friday . ' Several of them were calling ' gun , gun ' , so first of all we thought someone had been shot . ' Then they just kept sort of - it was all in Spanish , it was very difficult to understand - but they were sort of pushing us into shops . ' Ms McLean , who was separated from her husband in the panic , also said the scene reminded her of the Bourke Street Mall rampage . ' My first reaction was the Bourke Street massacre , because that is what it reminded me of - the vision of people fleeing in just such terror , ' she said . Keith Fleming , and American living in Barcelona , said he was watching television in his building on a side street just off Las Ramblas when he heard a noise and went out to the balcony to investigate . He says he saw ' women and children just running and they looked terrified . ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rolling down a store shutter , as more people raced by . He said armed police arrived and pushed everyone a full block down the street . Australian witnesses described the attack as reminiscent of the Bourke Strert Mall rampage in January ( above ) State-owned broadcaster RTVE reported that investigators think two vans were used - one for the attack and a second as a getaway vehicle . The attack in the northeastern Spanish city was the country 's deadliest since 2004 , when al-Qaeda-inspired bombers killed 192 people in coordinated attacks on Madrid 's commuter trains . Spain has been on a security alert one step below the maximum since June 2015 following attacks elsewhere in Europe and Africa . Cars , trucks and vans have been the weapon of choice in multiple extremist attacks in Europe in the last year . The most deadly was the driver of a tractor-trailer who targeted Bastille Day revelers in the southern French city of Nice in July 2016 , killing 86 people . In December 2016 , 12 people died after a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ market in Berlin . There have been multiple attacks this year in London , where a man in a rented SUV plowed into pedestrians on Westminster Bridge , killing four people before he ran onto the grounds of Parliament and stabbed an unarmed police officer to death in March . Four other men drove onto the sidewalk of London Bridge , unleashing a rampage with knives that killed eight people in June . Another man also drove into pedestrians leaving a north London mosque later in June . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'bowing out of running a train service' does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the operator ceasing to run the service, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A RAIL operator is bowing out of running a train service after 21 years -- as passengers endured yet more delays on the Weymouth-Waterloo line . Responsibility for the South Western franchise passes from South West Trains ( Stagecoach ) to new operator First/MTR at 1:59am tomorrow ( Sunday ) . Stagecoach paid tribute to its 5,000 rail employees as it prepared to complete its contract with the Department for Transport to run one of Europe 's biggest rail networks .

It says it has contributed more to the taxpayer than any other operator and played a critical role in the UK economy . The firm thanked staff , industry partners and other stakeholders who have helped transform rail services for customers . Martin Griffiths , chief executive of Stagecoach Group , said : " I am very proud of the huge amount of work that 's been done over the past two decades to improve rail services for customers travelling with South West Trains . " This is testament to the commitment of our 5,000-strong team of employees and the great partnership we have with Network Rail and other key suppliers .

NEW plans for flats on the site of a former Wirral pub have been submitted to the council . If Liverpool Housing Trust 's scheme is approved The Millhouse in Millhouse Lane , Moreton , would be demolished and 28 one and two-bedroom flats built in its place . The scheme , which also features landscaping and car parking , has been drawn up following concerns that previous applications were out of keeping with the area . The site was previously owned by Warrington-based GallifordTry , who were given permission to build 38 apartments for the over 55s . It sparked a local protest with around 150 people signing a petition and more than 40 letters being sent to the council opposing the scheme . Subject to permission for the revised plan being given , the aim is to start building within the next year .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it discusses the general idea of preventing someone from making a career out of something they are passionate about, without using the specific construction in question. The phrase 'prevent someone from making a career out of something' does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction as it lacks the necessary structural and semantic components.

A trust set up to celebrate the lives of two teenagers who were robbed of the chance to reach their full potential aims to help others to achieve their dreams . Chloe Rutherford had a passion for performance while boyfriend Liam Curry 's love of sport knew no bounds .

It 's a question that 39,000 asylum seekers in Britain are currently grappling with . When people arrive in the UK and apply for asylum , they are not allowed to work while they wait for their claim to be decided . Those who have savings must live off them ; those who are destitute -- an understandably high number , given the circumstances in which many people flee their countries -- are entitled to support in the form of housing and an allowance of ? 36.95 a person a week . This works out at ? 1,921.40 a year -- slightly more than 50% of jobseeker 's allowance . It is meant to cover everything except housing and bills : food , transport , clothing and toiletries , obviously . But also mobile phone plans , so that people can stay in touch with families back home , toys and activities for children , trips to the barber , school shoes , birthday presents . So how is it possible to live on such a small amount ? We spoke to four groups of asylum seekers about how they survive . Iraqi Kurds living in St Helens , near Liverpool Zara , 7 , has spent most of her life in the UK and speaks with a strong Liverpool accent . She attends a local primary school and does n't understand why she ca n't have the things her friends have and why her parents do n't get jobs so the family can have more money . Nesr ? n and Binar have tried to keep their situation hidden from their daughters . " They do n't need to know that we are asylum seekers , " says Binar . He has a master 's degree from a British university . While completing it he was contacted by his family to say that threats had been made agains him in Iraq and it was not safe for him to return , so he claimed asylum . He has been waiting on his claim for almost two years , is desperate to work and hates not being able to buy his daughters the things they want . " She could n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her friends in school talk about trips -- going to the zoo , vacations to places . I looked at going to the zoo and the family tickets were I think ? 65 , it 's too much for me . Also , I do n't have a car . " Nesrin prepares food ( top ) , and some of the family 's grocery shopping ( above ) Zara 's room is decorated with stickers and toys , and is overwhelming in its pinkness . Almost everything in here has been bought at the car boot sale down the road . Her favourite toy is a light-up Hello Kitty that does not light up , which they bought for ? 1 . When I visited it was four days before Zara 's seventh birthday and Nesr ? n and Binar had been saving for weeks to buy her presents and a cake , and to throw her a little party . Stickers in Zara 's room , her Hello Kitty toy and a favourite snack . " When they come back from the school holiday @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they went . But we do nothing . We want to make a birthday party for her so she can talk about that with her friends , " says Binar . He admits he is a soft touch when it comes to buying nice food for his daughters . " I always buy the stuff they want -- milk , chocolate , ice-cream -- I care about their demands , " he says . " Not sweets , because I think this is bad for them , but anything else I try to buy it for them . " This is evident when he returns from the daily shop . As well as yoghurt , chickpeas , eggs , milk and nappies , he also has choco rice , milk ice-creams , string cheese snacks and strawberry laces sweets , which Zara rips into as soon as they have been photographed and shares with her sister . Another difficulty for the family is the cost of transport . In March , they travelled to Liverpool for the appeal of their asylum case ; it cost about ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ got there they were told their case had been delayed and they had to return the next week . " They did n't care about how we all travel , and then we have to all travel again the next week for the same amount . They just consider ? 5 is enough for food , but we need other things , " says Nesr ? n . There is no halal butcher in St Helens so Binar travels to Manchester once a month and buys a large box of halal chicken , which they freeze . The day-return train ticket costs ? 11 . " They give us asylum benefit so we will not beg , but actually we are begging , " says Nesr ? n . " Sometimes I cry for myself ; everything is secondhand , everything is help . I can never do something for myself , go to the salon , do something for my hair . When you become a mum you have everything dreamed for your daughter , and I ca n't do anything . I 've given up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , living in Liverpool Mohmand has spent longer than most trying to live off ? 36.95 . The humanitarian aid worker fled Afghanistan after receiving threats for the work he did with the UN and Red Cross . He arrived in the UK in 2013 . More than two years later he received a decision on his asylum claim -- a refusal . Almost two years after that , when he had been in the country for three years and 11 months , this decision was overturned on appeal and he was given refugee status . Mohmand spoke to the Guardian less than a week after getting the good news . Mohmand estimates that after his phone bill , transport costs , gym membership and toiletries -- roughly ? 10 a month -- he is left with about ? 2 a day for food and clothing . He goes to the nearby Tesco at 7pm , when they put red stickers on food and reduce the price .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. The phrase 'cut a step or two out of heating soup' does not involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a literal action of removing steps from a process, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

With the stakes in clinical research so high , today sees the launch of a new and much-needed way of reporting clinical trials To make clinical trials more reliable we need to keep academic journals blind to the results , just as patients in a trial are kept blind to whether they are receiving the treatment or the control . Photograph : Alamy Stock Photo In tumultuous times , it is easy to miss the fact that science is undergoing a quiet revolution . For several years now , concerns have been peaking in biomedicine about the reliability of published research -- that the results of too many studies can not be reproduced when the methods are repeated . Alongside growing discontent , the scientific community has answered by driving forward a raft of open science reforms . From initiatives to making research data publicly available , to ensuring that all published research can be read by the public , the aim of these reforms is simple : to make science more credible and accessible , for the benefit of other scientists and the public @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reforms takes hold for the first time in clinical medicine : a new type of journal article called a Registered Report in which the journal commits to publishing clinical trials regardless of their outcome . This might sound like common sense -- because that 's exactly what it is -- but in the competitive world of science and academia it represents a significant departure from the status quo . All science is coloured by human imperfection , but you could be forgiven for thinking that clinical trials ought to be immune to low reliability . Trials are high stakes enterprises that can influence life and death , and have long been regarded as the gold standard in discovering whether a new treatment works . In a typical trial , you divide your sample randomly into two groups . You administer the new treatment to one group , and a control treatment to the other . You blind the patients in each group to whether they 're receiving the treatment or the control , and you blind the researchers too until the end of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you register the study design in a public forum together with a plan for analysing the data . These steps are intended to stop researchers from fooling themselves into seeing what they want to see . In a perfect world , clinical trials would indeed be a bastion of scientific credibility . But the " publish or perish " mentality of academia collides violently with these ideals . Read more The first problem is publication bias -- a tendency for certain types of results to be easier to publish than others , even when the quality of the underlying methods is the same . Suppose you were to test a promising new treatment and you find that it reliably outperforms the current treatment -- this is what is known as a positive result . Depending on how important this outcome is , you would have relatively little trouble publishing your findings in a respected peer-reviewed journal . You might even have a shot at one of the more prestigious medical journals , which in turn could provide @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ easier for you to get promoted and acquire more research funding . But suppose the promising new treatment did n't perform noticeably different from the current treatment -- a so-called negative result . Now you 're in a world of academic pain . The most prestigious journals are unlikely to consider your results newsworthy enough to publish . You may find it impossible to publish the study within any respected journal , and you might even run out of funding while trying to find your study a home . After all this frustration you may well decide to abandon publishing it altogether , leaving the results in what scientists call the file drawer : a great attic in the sky for results that were too complex or ambiguous to see light of day . Over time , these incentives teach researchers that positive results are good and negative results are bad , despite the fact that negative results -- showing that a treatment does n't work -- are absolutely vital for advancing medicine . This publication bias is a major reason why somewhere between 16 to 66% of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ moment what this does to our understanding of which medical treatments really work and why . The second problem with clinical trials is a form of cherry picking called hidden outcome switching . Back in the 1980s , the medical community decided that clinical trials should be registered in advance , pre-specifying the study design , outcome measures , and analysis plan . One of the reasons this was brought in was to stop cherry picking by researchers , either deliberately or unconsciously . In any study with a lot of variables , it is relatively easy to find a positive result by changing the main outcome measure after looking at the data or by using a different type of analysis to the one originally planned . Just as shifting the goal posts in a football match guarantees a goal from every kick , with enough data dredging a researcher is guaranteed to find something they can publish , even if that " something " is a false discovery . Publication bias places researchers under enormous pressure to engage in cherry picking -- all the incentives in academia @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ others ) in the interests of publishing in prestigious journals . So it comes as little surprise that cherry picking is rife in clinical trials : a 2014 analysis found that around 1 in 3 trials change their primary outcome measure after the trial is complete , and Ben Goldacre 's COMPARE project recently found that of 67 trials published by the most prestigious medical journals , 58 covertly altered their outcome measures from the registered protocol . This all sounds pretty grim , but it turns out that the solution to both publication bias and hidden outcome switching is straightforward . The first step is to treat the publication process as we would treat a clinical trial itself and ensure that journals are kept blind to the results when they decide whether to accept or reject articles . This guarantees that positive and negative results are on equal footing in the published literature . And secondly , we need to ensure that researchers adhere to their registered trial protocols , or at least explain why deviations from protocol are required . For @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . A new type of article called a Registered Report provides both of these features . Unlike conventional scientific publishing , Registered Reports are reviewed in two stages . Researchers first submit their protocol to the journal before they collect their data . This undergoes peer review focusing on the study rationale and robustness of the methodology . Following any necessary revision , the protocol can then be accepted in advance by the journal , guaranteeing publication of the outcomes provided the researchers adhere to their protocol . As a condition of final publication , the researchers are also required to make any anonymised data from their study publicly available . Registered Reports originated in psychology a few years ago as a way to address concerns about reproducibility , and have since been taken up by 70 academic journals covering a wide range of sciences . As well as preventing publication bias and cherry picking , they change the core incentives in science , liberating researchers from the pressure to report positive results because the results themselves become a dead currency . For a Registered Report , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ trial is published . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'made a career out of smelling superb', where 'smelling superb' is not a VP[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The NP object 'a career' does not function as a causee, and the sentence does not convey the required interpretations.

Looking in the mirror is n't narcissistic , it 's essential to looking good , feeling good and doing good ByAlfred Tong GQ : How did you get into fragrance ? Roja Dove : I do n't think I chose fragrance , I think it kind of chose me . I fell in love with scent when I was a small boy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ kiss goodnight and for the first time I suddenly became aware of a connection between the moment and a person - that smell . I became so obsessed with smells , fascinated by them , so I used to steal into my mother 's bedroom and I would open the bottom left-hand drawer of her dressing table where she kept perfumes . We has a very close family friend who would always give my mother gifts of cologne when they visited - I think she did n't like them as she never used them . So I would open the drawer and then I 'd unscrew the bottles and sometimes I 'd take a touch and just put it on my hand because I would want to smell it . I just loved how varied the effects of scent were and I think that they fuelled a fantasy . I always say it was like a genie taking me on a journey somewhere - you just let it take you on the ride . Scent for me is a thing about fantasy . As you ca n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , I suppose that 's what fragrance commercials try to convey ? Selling the fantasy of a lifestyle through imagery ... ByCarlotta Constant Fantasy of a lifestyle ? Yes , maybe . Although what I find strange with so much advertising is that it is normally always the same : a man with his shirt ripped open off with a slightly greased up and oiled up body , or a man and a woman staring at each other as if they 're either just about to screw or just have done . I think there 's not a lot of fantasy ; I think there 's rather a lot of stereotypical clich ? . Just in my opinion . So what was your first job ? Did you go straight into the fragrance ? To cut an awfully long story very short , I was offered a job by one of three cousins who owned one of the oldest French perfumery houses , who said I would be less of a nuisance working in the house @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all the subsidiaries of the country around the world trying to find out the research and history . Can you remember any of the fragrances that you had when you were that sort of age ? Yes , I used to think Brut was fabulous at the age of about 13 or 14 . I loved Dior Eau Sauvage and I loved Aramis - the original Aramis . The scent that I liked the most and ended up using the most was discontinued : Balenciaga Eau de Lavande . I still have a bottle of it . Want to upgrade your morning routine ? Here 's our pick of the best new men 's grooming products to arrive in shops this week , including Elemis , Guerlain and Neal 's Yard . ByCarlotta Constant and Grace Julia Clarke I started writing the letters when I was about 15 or 16 . I ended up getting a job and was employed to develop a perfumery training course - so I was suddenly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ work with a woman called Nancy McConaghey who , as you might tell from her name , is Scottish and she made a perfume which in its day was very important called Ivoire for Balmain . I was only a young person starting their career but it seemed as if I had an aptitude for perfume . So I worked with the house . I worked for 20 years before deciding it was time to leave . How did you come to set up your own company ? After I left the perfume house , I was asked by a friend to make a perfume for a Terrance Higgins Trust auction . I called Brigitte Berry , who ran Baccarat Crystal and asked whether she would be prepared to re-blow a bottle called L'Oc ? an Bleu , which was made for the 1925 decorative art fair . I came up with the idea of having an empty bottle because I thought if I had an empty bottle made up and made the scent to go in it , then you are more likely bid on it than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like . The perfume fetched the most money in the auction - and it was then that I realised that some people really care how they smell . So that was when I realised my way back into perfumery was through bespoke . At around the same time , I was invited into Harrods for a cup of tea . I had no idea why they 'd invited me in - but it turned out they wanted to open a perfumery . A shop was absolutely not in my orbit , but by the end of the pot of tea we came up with an idea . Having spent up to six months of my working year , every year , travelling around the world , I always found it fascinating people travelled to see me - and I would ask people why . Interestingly , they would say that it 's because there was either too much choice or there was no choice and so I realised that there were so many people who found choosing a scent difficult . And so we opened this perfumery on the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fragrances from the industry . When people would ask what it was about , I 'd say it 's like the difference between haute couture and pr ? t- ? -porter - it 's haute perfumery . The new commercial for Paco Rabanne Pure XS is a brilliant return to the iconic fragrance ads of the 1990s . Watch , and you 'll see what we mean . ByNick Carvell I never believed that people would be interested in my work other than my bespoke line . And then in 2009 , my mother died and I was having dinner with a friend , who gave me a metaphorical slap around the face for about three hours , asking why I 'd spent my entire life promoting everybody else 's work , when I could do it for myself . I knew what she was telling me was right , so I called a group of my non-industry friends together to talk about me and any potential brand I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Dove , what is the reality of Roja Dove and what should Roja Dove be ? After listening to their very candid comments , I created this perfume house for a very simple reason : I think we all have a duty to pass on knowledge . I hope that anybody who speaks within my firm will say it 's something I tried to do on a daily basis . I think leaving a legacy is very important , so I invested my life savings in tubes and boxes and spray nozzles and cardboard boxes and stuff . I remember walking into Harrods on the 2 July when we launched the brand and I thought what have you done ? What if no one likes it ? That 's your life savings . Thankfully , it seems people responded to it very well and all around the world the reaction to it has been astonishing . You now have stockists in 44 countries around the world . What do you think has made the brand so successful ? I think with this brand one of the reasons @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I 've always said I 'm quite an opinionated human being . With my work , I really do n't mind if somebody utterly dislikes something that I make . Of course , I love it if you love something that I make , but what I would hate is if you said something I made is " nice " . With such a large range of fragrances , would you recommend layering them together ? Want to upgrade your morning routine ? Here 's our pick of the best new men 's grooming products to arrive in shops this week , including Chanel , Panasonic and Davidoff ByJake Pummintr and Carlotta Constant These would n't be designed to be layered onto each other , they are designed to be kept very separate . That would be like listening to Guns N ' Roses and Schubert at the same time . That could work ... I would n't want you as a neighbour laughs . No , I think the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of each other you make something nice is a little strange . When you design bespoke fragrances , do you think people are fairly easy to read in their tastes ? I think that anybody who tries to judge somebody by what they see is a fool . To pre-judge somebody is always a very large mistake . The problem with scent is that most people ca n't describe what it is they like and dislike . The language we normally use is subjective - so " I want something sophisticated " , well what is the ultimate definition of sophistication ? So when I 'm working making a bespoke fragrance , I give them main raw materials that I might use , without telling the person what they 're smelling . So what I 'm wanting is not a clever answer - I 'm wanting you to tell me that it reminds you of something because smells revel associations . I will pick up as you 're telling me that story whether it 's positive or negative for you , and if it 's positive , then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what you see are themes coming , that you maybe find that when I give you woody notes that you do n't like them but when I give you mossy notes or give you what we call fresh spices and powdery floral notes that you love all of them , so then of course I will incorporate them . No-one ever comes in and says , " I 'd like a labdanum accord " - although that would be really handy ! From footballers to rugby players , musicians to GQ 's own creative director , meet the panel of experts testing our annual edit of the best grooming products for men ByCarlotta Constant What is the bespoke process from that point ? I would then go away and work for someone between six months and two years to create their perfume . In reality the majority of them take six months to a year . That might seem like a long time , but if you write a book or you write @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ From buzzing your hair off to trying out highlights , we explore the options for any man who wants to phase out this summer 's ice blond craze - with expert help from master barber Joe Mills . ByNick Carvell So , one of the reasons that I love scent is it helps remove us from the everyday to a world of the temporal fantasy . The idea of Elysium in Greek mythology was this paradise for for heroes . But what is " paradise " ? It is most likely somewhere that exists other worldly . So with this fragrance , I wanted to play on the idea of pulling your nose up somewhere very high to remove you from Earth . While there are a lot of traditionally masculine materials in Elysium - it 's a fragrance which is based around a lot of vetiver , cedar wood , and leather - for the top notes of it , I worked a lot of a very beautiful lime note , a grapefruit note , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ work as a top note . Musks are always fixatives , but when you smell it , you smell it right at the top of a scent . So this is part of what tips your nose up very high . So you get the feeling that the scent is a little bit flipped , if that makes sense ? Where should you apply fragrance ? It was first suggested that you put scent on your wrist by the Ancient Greeks . The reason to put it on the wrist is that scent comes to life when you move - so because we move our arms and our arms often go by our face , the beauty of putting a bit on your wrist is you have the pleasure of smelling it . I think a bicep is also a really great place for it and the last place is to put it a little bit in the clavicle . The reason for putting it in here , in the clavicle , is when you bend forward and come back up you 'll get a little puff @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have the pleasure of it when you move your head around when you move , but also anybody greeting you will get the pleasure of it . Also you have the carotid artery here , so that 's quite a good blood supply and that warmth of being near a vein gives the scent a lift . The negative of it where it is warm , it will evaporate more quickly which is why I think it 's also great to put it on the bicep because it 's not quite as warm . Want to upgrade your morning routine ? Here 's our pick of the best new men 's grooming products to arrive in shops this week , including Chanel , Panasonic and Davidoff ByCarlotta Constant and Jake Pummintr What about putting it on fabric ? So traditionally men would never put scent on the skin - scent was put on handkerchiefs . So when you had your silk handkerchief in your breast pocket and you were dancing with someone @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The reason for putting the scent on silk as opposed to any other fabric is that silk has an almost magic property that it retains it for weeks . If you put scent on linen or cotton , it wo n't last in the least . Is there anywhere you would n't recommend putting scent ? Anywhere on the back of the neck or behind the ear , because your skin there produces a lot of sebum and that oil is very very alkaline . When you put perfume on it , it 'll interfere with how the scent develops and distort it . Some people like to put scent on their torso - why not ? In the East there was a tradition to put scent around your navel because of the number of blood vessels that are there - great if somebody 's going that way maybe ? |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'out of moving cars' involves an NP ('moving cars') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', where 'moving' modifies the noun 'cars', not introducing a VP[-ing] predicate.

The British film production boom , from blockbusters including the new Star Wars trilogy to smaller domestic flicks and European co-productions , has played a role in propping up growth in the UK economy following the Brexit vote . However , producers -- including the backer of a film about that most British of figures , Winston Churchill -- have warned that severing links with Brussels will endanger the industry . Lionsgate , which released Churchill in June , worries that Brexit will impede the already complex process of funding , filming and releasing a multimillion-pound product . One Lionsgate-backed film that might have struggled post-Brexit is Rupert Everett 's directorial debut about Oscar Wilde 's last days , The Happy Prince , now finished and awaiting release . " Lots of films are multi-territory European co-productions , like The Happy Prince for example . It is being made with UK , Luxembourg and German money , " says Zygi Kamasa , the UK and European chief executive of US-based Lionsgate , which makes , finances and distributes films such as the recently released The Hitman 's Bodyguard , which was partly filmed in the UK @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it means for movies like that once Brexit occurs . What is the opportunity to keep those productions through EU funding ? What does it mean for funding those movies ? Could there be levies , or issues getting German funding into a British movie , for example ? There are risks associated with Brexit . " Film-makers and financiers also fear that Brexit could see the UK 's role in European co-productions threatened because Britain will not be eligible for support from a ? 1.4bn ( ? 1.3bn ) EU funding pot designed to support films across the continent . Rosamund Pike and David Oyelowo in A United Kingdom , which received support from Creative Europe . Photograph : Allstar/20th Century Fox Currently , British productions such as The Wife , starring Glenn Close , and Breathe , Andy Serkis 's directorial debut starring The Crown 's Claire Foy , benefit from an EU programme called Creative Europe . This fund allows British films and European co-productions to receive support that can range from straight funding to a better chance of being aired in cinemas around @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Brexit could also affect the attractiveness of British films being picked up for distribution in Europe -- for instance in France , which has incentives to screen EU-funded films . Creative Europe has supported the distribution of 115 UK films including Paddington , Pride , A United Kingdom , Suffragette and I , Daniel Blake . Switzerland-based production company Silver Reel says there is a Brexit scenario in which the UK could lose its status as the lead shooting location on some films if leaving the EU means a loss of eligibility for European film-making perks . Silver Reel has spent more than ? 500m making more than 35 films in the last decade , including The Wife , Breathe and Hampstead , starring Diane Keaton and Brendan Gleeson . " All of our work is either pure UK productions or co-productions , " says Silver Reel 's Claudia Bluemhuber . " We need to figure out how UK productions can work as a European production to make sure we can still get them distributed in other European countries . Brexit is going to make it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a way that the leading country is somewhere else . That way we could still shoot in the UK but make it more of a service production location . " Last month , the UK arm of Creative Europe said that there would be " no immediate material changes " to companies and organisations applying for funding , at least until the end of 2018 . The European commission has attempted to allay fears that with Brexit looming the UK might already be being frozen out of funding , saying that there will be " no negative bias against UK applicants " . So far the air of uncertainty that surrounds the potential impact of Brexit has n't affected the UK 's role in European co-productions or the British film-making sector . The weakening currency and huge financial carrot of tax credits for film companies choosing to shoot here continues to make Britain attractive . " For the coming 24 months we are actually looking to increase our activity in the UK , " says Bluemhuber . " The weak pound is good because , along with the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . We are setting up a new TV and film production company in the UK and investing more . " Kamasa points out that in financial terms it is the big US studios who are driving the UK film industry , and this accounts for much of the sector 's recent success . Last year , just 18 big-budget Hollywood films accounted for ? 1.1bn of the ? 1.6bn spent on all films made in the UK . " The majority of the boom is being driven from US companies coming to the UK -- the Marvel films , Star Wars -- driven by the UK tax credit , " he says . " That should n't change at all because of Brexit . There is no reason politically or economically why that should change .

But Kamasa , who is chairing a BFI commission looking at the health of the film sector , says that Brexit is the latest issue to weigh on the increasingly pressured independent film business . " Hollywood is driving so much of the production boom , " he says . " But that does n't paint a true picture when looking at the British film industry in its entirety . True British independent film , responsible for films like The King 's Speech , is struggling and could continue to struggle . Those films are eligible for tax credits but the financing , distribution and marketing of those films is getting harder and harder . " Kamasa says that the move to the fewer-but-bigger Hollywood blockbuster model , coupled with the rise of streaming services like Netflix , is potentially of more concern than the impact of Brexit .

Following the divisive Beyond The Wall , season finale The Dragon And The Wolf packed huge character reunions , incredibly satisfying character inter-play and the confirmation of a huge fan theory . So where do we go from here ? Does Viserion breath ice or blue fire ? Is it all about cocks in the end ? Here 's all the questions we have following the partially excellent season seven finale . Please do n't hurt Tormund ( Picture : HBO ) So let 's start with the end . The Night King descended upon The Wall with his newly-taken dragon and burned down the barrier protecting the seven kingdoms from undead invaders . As The Wall came crumbling down however , both Tormund Giantsbane and Beric Dondarrion could be seen shouting for people to flee , with a quick cutaway leaving audiences to ponder whether the pair made it out alive from the destruction . Considering Game Of Thrones normally shows the deaths of significant characters , it 's perhaps unlikely this will be the last we see of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ state ? And could this be pushing Beric 's ' last life ' to the extreme ? Could Sansa turn against Jon Snow ? ( Picture : HBO ) So after centuries of waiting , Game Of Thrones finally confirmed Jon Snow is actually the legitimate son of Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark . Not only that , his name is actually Aegon Targaryen . But considering his lifetime of growing up as a Stark surrounded by Arya , Sansa and Bran -- how will the discovery of his newfound Targaryen heritage affect his relationship with his Stark past ? It 'll certainly be interesting to see whether Jon ( Aegon ) potentially rejects the name , especially following his conversation with Theon about him being part Stark for having grown up under Ned 's wing -- will Jon have a similar heart when it comes to discovering his true parentage ? As Arya and Sansa look more united than ever after killing Littlefinger , could this bombshell also be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? And will they see Jon Snow 's bending of the knee to Daenerys as something else entirely ? Will Jaime and Bronn become loveable rogues ? ( Picture : HBO ) Jaime almost became victim to The Mountain in the finale , with Cersei failing to follow through with the killing order at the last minute as he walked out of King 's Landing to fight against the undead army . While he 's clearly heading to support the cause up North , who will Jaime turn to ? And will he tell Jon Snow ( Aegon ) or Daenerys about Cersei 's plans to deceive them both ? It certainly feels like Jaime is long overdue a heart-to-heart with Brienne Of Tarth , which was briefly teased in this episode , so we 're hoping another hot steamy bath scene is on the horizon . All hail , Lena Headey as Cersei Lannister ( Picture : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Tyrion Lannister faced up his fears of encountering his sister alone in the heart of King 's Landing , in a bid to appeal to Cersei and make her see the threat which is looming up North . OMG Lena Headey and Peter Dinklage deserve ALL of the awards . Literally all of the awards ever . #GameofThrones Following a pretty anti-climactic gathering in the Dragon Pit , it was a perfectly judged and wonderfully acted centrepiece for arguably the two best characters on the show -- as Cersei discovered even her cold heart does n't possess the evil to kill her little brother . Peter Dinklage is King and Lena Headey is Queen . Long may they reign . Is Theon Greyjoy on the course for redemption ? ( Picture : HBO ) Theon underwent some significant growth this episode by killing an unruly member of the Iron Born , earning some friends and proving he may have finally overcome his weak Reek past . Considering his uncle Euron still @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ unknown state , could Theon be too late to save her ? And how will he overcome someone with better combat skills and an evil vicious streak ? We 're not convinced a lack of penis will become useful in that fight , to be honest . Jon Snow and Daenerys finally got it on ( Picture : HBO ) Daenerys has said multiple times this season how she is n't able to have children , twice in Beyond The Wall in fact , so as is the case with heavy-handed writing -- it seems the opposite could actually be true . This was made especially clear when Jon Snow ( Aegon , we know ) practically dismissed witch Mirri Maz Duur 's claim she will no longer be able to have kids , saying to Daenerys how she ' may not be a reliable source of information ' . You know , being a witch . Considering they 've now both shacked up together , unknowing of their family connections , could Daenerys and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to a baby born from incest ? It 'll certainly deliver some interesting parallels to Cersei 's pregnancy if it does materialise , with two would-be mothers battling for supremacy and their heirs to the throne . It 's currently unknown when season eight will actually air , with the earliest being touted as summer 2018 and the latest possibly 2019. |

Team orders have been part of motor racing since the sport was born more than one century ago and there have always been extremely valid arguments for and against their implementation . In the aftermath of yesterday 's Belgian Grand Prix there are two teams that are seriously considering imposing team orders from Monza until the end of the season , but for completely different reasons and with completely different purposes . The most high profile case is that of Mercedes , of course . who is at the point of deciding if they still allow Valtteri Bottas and Lewis Hamilton to race freely , taking points away from each other , or follow Ferrari 's route and put all their efforts into the English driver 's campaign . Now , this seems to be an odd thing for Mercedes to be considering if you think that in Budapest , just one month ago , Hamilton gave away three points in the final corner , to comply with what had been agreed a few laps @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he could chase the leading Ferrari duo . Things did n't change that much one race later , but Bottas ' drop to P5 after the re-start in Spa-Francorchamps may have sealed his fate . After being unable to challenge the main title contenders the whole weekend , the Finn found a new lease of life during the second stint of the race , when he matched and , often , beat Vettel and Hamilton 's pace , to get within five seconds of the German with 15 laps to go . Obviously only if the Ferrari tyres would seriously degrade he 'd have a chance to try and attack for second place , but he had turned around a negative weekend into an acceptable third place within striking distance of the leading duo . The Safety Car and the last set of tyres made things worse for Bottas . Like Hamilton , he was on the harder tyre available , but , unlike the Brit , he was unable to keep his position at the re-start , losing out to Ricciardo and Raikkonen . Not only that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to explain his lack of pace in his second set of new Soft tyres , as well as his general lack of speed with the Ultra Softs the whole weekend . I suspect by the time we get to Monza , in a couple of days , Mercedes will have found the reason for Bottas ' W08 lack of general grip for most of the weekend , but the bottom line is that he lost eight points to Vettel - instead of three - and 15 to Hamilton - instead of ten - and is now 41 points behind the German and 34 behind his own team mate . Even a double DNF from the leaders combined with his own victory would still leave Bottas in third place in the championship , so this situation combined with his inability to keep up the pace with Hamilton in the past three Grand Prix - technical issues or not - may finally convince Toto Wolff to go against his own instincts and impose a team hierarchy from now until the end of the season . As Bottas himself said after @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ depends a lot on me . If I manage to perform well , if I manage to get pole position and escape in the races , then it 's in my hands as well . There are still eight races to go , there 's a good amount of points up for grabs . The guys that are ahead of me in the championship , they may get some DNF 's . " While that is true , as there are still 200 points on the table and Vettel may eventually get a grid penalty if he needs to use a fifth turbo , there is no doubt Ferrari has made the most out of having just one driver in contention for the championship , having no hesitation in compromising Kimi Raikkonen 's race to boost Vettel 's chances . Raikkonen , again , stayed out too long in Spa before changing tyres , to try and make Hamilton lose time while trying to get past him . Only after the Mercedes drivers eased past the Ferrari , coming out of the Radillon on lap 15 , was he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Daniel Ricciardo came down from 6.3s to just 2.1s but that became irrelevant given he was immediately handed a stop & go penalty for failing to slow down for the yellow flags shown to indicate the presence of Verstappen parked car way out of harms ' way in the Kemmel Straight . Bottas has shown on a few occasions he can even do a better job than Raikkonen at keeping much faster cars behind without resorting to unsporting behaviour and could be of great help to Hamilton if Mercedes decides to go down this route . He may be convinced to accept this new role for the next eight races with the help of a multi-year contract from 2018 , when until now Mercedes has hinted it was only prepared to give him another one-year deal , to be free on the market at the end of next year , when many talented drivers ' contracts expire . Personally , while I completely understand Mercedes ' predicament and their frustration at being in the middle of an unequal battle , I would n't like to see them making @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the chances Valtteri Bottas turns things around and overcomes two very big gaps when he has n't been right at the front since the Austrian Grand Prix , are slim but they are there . I would rather favour a " play it by ear " approach in Monza , with Mercedes giving equal tools to Hamilton and the Finn and then making a decision during the race , depending on where their drivers and Vettel will be . In some occasions , having two drivers fighting against one can be a serious advantage for he can only mark one at a time , so Mercedes could even use the current situation to their advantage . On a track they should have an advantage , it would be a shame Mercedes would deprive the fans from a great battle between its two drivers , provided Bottas manages to turn things around in five days - something he 's shown in the past he 's capable of doing . As for rigid team orders , I 'd wait another a few more races before having a serious look at it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ month , with four races compressed in just six weekends . The second case of team orders being on the verge of being enforced is that of Force India and I have to say I really feel for the team 's management , as they 've done all they could - and probably more - to allow Sergio Perez and Esteban Ocon to race freely for position , but have paid a heavy price for that with the loss of a lot of points . There was always a rivalry between the rookie and the Mexican old hand but things had been kept very much under control until the Canadian Grand Prix . In Montreal , both stuck behind Daniel Ricciardo 's Red Bull , Esteban Ocon - on much fresher tyres - felt he had more pace than his team mate and asked the team to order a position swap , which the team did , with the promise to Perez he 'd get his place back if the Frenchman was unable to get past the Australian . But Perez @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ capable of passing the Red Bull driver quickly and the end result was the two pink cars were caught and passed by the recovering Sebastian Vettel , to finish the race in 5th and 6th place , always with the Mexican in front . But they both gave the team a good scare with four laps to go , when Ocon made a move coming out of the last chicane , Perez ran him very close to the edge and then the youngster went off in Turn One to avoid ramming his team mate . If Force India thought that was bad , they had a thing coming , for two weeks later , in Baku , a couple of clashes cost the team more than a dozen points and a good shot at , at least , a podium finish . On the second re-start , on lap 20 they had a small clash in Turn One and then it was Ocon 's turn to squeeze Perez into the wall coming out of Turn 2 . The Mexican could n't avoid his team mate and his car sustained @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stoppage to finish in sixth place . Immediately after the race Force India called a meeting and gave the drivers new rules of engagement , so things cooled down for a while , in spite of a harmless banging of wheels in the first lap of the Hungarian Grand Prix that cost none of them any damage . But yesterday , in Spa-Francorchamps , they twice clashed in identical circumstances , with Perez being slow out of La Source and squeezing Ocon into the old pits ' wall . If on lap one they just rubbed wheels and carried on unharmed , the Mexican possibly just moving over , as him too was getting squeezed by Hulkenberg on the outside , their accident on lap 29 was entirely Perez 's fault . The Mexican had just passed his team mate into La Source but went wide on the exit , so he knew Ocon was right there and ready to pounce . That he forced the issue and caused an avoidable accident was inexcusable and the last straw for the team , as both Vijay Mallya and Otmar @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . From now on the team will make sure they wo n't meet on track , " as they are clearly unable to race against each other without incidents " , as the American pointed out . Obviously that 's easier said than done , especially because the two tend to qualify very closely to each other and inside the top ten , so their starting tyres will be the same and any variations of strategy will only be possible after the first pit stop . But that a team has to publicly admit it can not control its drivers is also an unusual situation and reflects as badly on the team and on the drivers ' professionalism. |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of cleaning their rooms', and it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'opt out of' is used here to indicate a choice not to participate in an activity, which is different from the construction's defined properties.

Seeing there was no " Do Not Disturb " sign , she calmly proceeded to enter the room and noticed a video camera by the bedside only to find three used condoms on the bed later . Gross ! 2 .

One year later when they left , the apartment was a huge mess . Worst of it all , they had stashed sanitary products under the beds and that left a nice aroma in the room ( Yuck ! ) . 3 . Poop alert People who generally assume that after one has crossed the age of 3-4 years , they would definitely know what to do with their poo . After all , what 's all that potty training for ! But ask a hotel cleaning staff about it and they 'll prove @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cleaning the bathroom floors and walls of a suite which were slathered with faeces . 4 .

Apparently , she discovered several " personal amusement items " in their drawers after the group had left . Oh Jejus ! 6 .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('eventually talked them out of pressing criminal charges'). It involves a prevention interpretation, where the action of talking prevents the object ('them') from pressing criminal charges. The verb 'talked' fits into the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot, specifically under 'By means of enticing, flattering, or verbal persuasion'. The NP object 'them' functions as a causee, and the sentence allows for a clear prevention interpretation, making it an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Williams , who had been honorably discharged from the army , had a diagnosed bipolar condition . After he experienced a few nights of insomnia at his parents ' house in Owasso , relatives brought him to a hotel . Williams threw a soda can in the lobby and walked into a door . Hotel staff called police . An officer who arrived at the scene found Williams " rambling on about God and eating dirt " . The officer and the staff concluded that Williams was suffering from " some kind of mental breakdown " . They escorted him out of the hotel and called his parents . At some point , while outside the hotel , Williams threatened to kill himself . A cop ordered him to stay seated on a curb . Williams got up and moved towards a police officer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ charging him with obstruction . The small town jail of Owasso was n't equipped to deal with a case like Williams 's . Instead of a suitable mental health facility , Williams wound up in Tulsa County jail . The jail was run by Sheriff Stanley Glanz , who would become infamous as the man who assigned his friend , Robert Bates , an insurance agent with no police training , to a violent crimes task force . Tulsa County jail was certainly no place for a man with a bipolar condition . And yet , with Williams in the midst of a breakdown , he was tackled and body-slammed to the ground by an officer . Williams had difficulty walking . He was transferred to a holding cell , where he rammed his head against a wall . Seeing Williams unable to move , the head nurse allegedly told him to " quit fucking faking " . He defecated on himself and officers dragged him to a shower . He still did n't move .

Five days after he was put in the Tulsa County jail , Williams died of complications from a broken neck and serious dehydration . Audits and inspections of the Tulsa County jail revealed decades of indifference to sexual abuse , overcrowding and overt racism . From one angle , the Tulsa County jail is par for the course in the American criminal justice system .

Chesapeake Energy , Devon Energy and Continental Resources have lobbied to lower the state 's gross production tax , citing competition from other states . They 've gotten their way , with Oklahoma 's oil and gas production taxes now significantly below those of its rival Texas . One of the state 's richest men and its most renowned philanthropist , George Kaiser , has been urging an increase in the gross production tax for years .

The current downturn , then , " has led many to question the state 's management of the tax dollar " . The Oklahoma Policy Institute calculates that the current regime of tax breaks and refunds costs around half a billion dollars in decreased revenue ever year .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a search engine 'slinks out of hiding', which does not involve a causer and a causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of hiding' is more idiomatic and does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction.

Developers are working on a privacy-focused search engine that goes beyond the likes of DuckDuckGo . DeepSearch from TSignal is an AI-based search engine that does not collect any user information , according to the team behind the project . The crawler-based engine aims to maintain user privacy while offering unbiased information discovery . " TSignal does all the heavy work in-house , including crawling , language detection , indexing , ranking etc , while DuckDuckGo results are based on Bing/Google APIs , " TSignal founder Vipin Kumar told El Reg . " DuckDuckGo is basically another front-end for Bing/Google with some tweaks . " TSignal has built its own engines , algorithms and stack , which handle , index and rank all data . The search engine has already indexed more than 4 billion web pages , according to its developers , with plans to index 100 billion more pages over the coming months . The search engine 's rank algorithms are completely AI based and its stack is " extremely fast @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ less than 200ms , according to Kumar . " There is no human curation of results at any stage , " he added . TSignal 's DeepSearch The project is pitched against the likes of Google , Yahoo ! , Bing and Yandex . TSignal promises that it does not track its users with cookies , JavaScripts or with any other technologies in any form , not even for the sake of better or personalised results . DeepSearch is currently at the alpha stage . Some features , such as query auto-correction and suggestions -- commonplace with other search engines -- are not yet available . It also does not currently index news or social media websites , but adding this support is a priority . " We completely respect users ' privacy , " Kumar concluded . " Users ' communications/search history are personal data and should be treated as such and should not be used in any form . The platform provider is just the messenger . " ? |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('Training anxiety out of making decisions'). It involves a causer ('Training') acting on a causee ('anxiety') to prevent it from participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate ('making decisions'), which aligns with the prevention interpretation of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Many of us carry around the physical symptoms of stress without recognising it ( Source : Getty ) Rajiv Nathwani Experiencing stress when making crucial decisions is a natural reaction to pressure , and one which some people argue gives them a business edge . However , stress now accounts for over a third of all work-related ill health , and when sustained over long periods can easily morph into long term mental health issues , such as anxiety . This can be debilitating for business leaders who must be confident in making pressurised decisions in a measured and timely fashion . Training anxiety out of making decisions means recognising anxiety 's power to exhaust , distract and demoralise . Equipping yourself with the tools to build up your resilience to these outcomes is easier said than done . However , if you want to improve your efficiency through minimising the impact of stress , here 's what my experience in the high pressure alternative finance industry has taught me . Be proactive as well as reactive Many of us carry around the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to relax your shoulders you become instantly aware they were tensed . It is too late to deal with stress once we 've reached breaking point . This does little to help us in the moment it hits , such as making a pressurised decision , and typically results in panicked reactions with potentially catastrophic business results . Physical exercise , such as yoga , that focuses on bringing you back to your body is an invaluable way of taking stock of how much stress you are carrying , then making a conscious effort to let it go . By switching off , you will be able to make each day 's decisions with a fresh outlook , clearing away the stressful residue of yesterday . While it wo n't always be possible to just unroll your yoga mat , the breathing skills you adopt will be transferable . Even if yoga is n't for you , take the time to investigate and practise coping mechanisms to identify which work for you . Become a realist , not a pessimist in disguise When you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ impossibly high standards . Setting yourself unrealistic targets , and becoming overly critical of yourself when you ca n't fulfil them , creates the foundation for highly pressurised decision-making processes that cultivate stress and reduce overall effectiveness . Building up your confidence through allowing time to consider your achievements is crucial to not becoming fixated on perceived failures , and will enable you to make decisions more confidently . Establish the root of your anxiety Experiencing anxiety during high pressure situations is often confusing and intimidating . As we know , stress is an obstacle to coming up with clear , well thought-out decisions . The school of psychotherapy argues that every individual has an unconscious set of core beliefs that act as life rules . If you 've experienced an anxious episode , take the time to assess what it made you think about yourself and where this belief may have originated from , before writing yourself a list of evidence to the contrary . Making the reasons for your anxiety conscious allows you to rationalise and overcome them . Becoming a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it develops into an anxious episode , and if this is unavoidable , cultivating the right mindset to overcome it . Not only will this minimise the impact of stress on your body , but empower you to make decisions efficiently and confidently . |

More domestic abuse survivors should be able to take part in elections after the Government confirmed plans to make it easier to register to vote anonymously . The changes will make it more straightforward for people to register without compromising their safety , potentially benefiting thousands of women who fear being tracked down by their abusers . Women 's Aid welcomed the move , claiming the voices of victims had been silenced because disclosing their address meant it was too dangerous for them to register to vote . But the charity called for ministers to go further and make anonymous voter registration valid for life rather than the current five-year period . The charity 's chief executive Katie Ghose said : " The changes announced today will help survivors of domestic abuse to regain their voices . " For too long these women have been silenced because it was too dangerous for them to sign up to an electoral register , which would reveal their location , and too difficult for them to register anonymously . " For them , anonymity is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ threat of being hunted down by their perpetrator . " But she added : " Often women are on the run from domestic abuse for the rest of their lives . We urge the Government to use the Domestic Violence and Abuse Bill to pass legislative changes to make survivors ' anonymous voter registration valid indefinitely so that they can vote in safety for life . " Officials are " looking at how we can extend the length of time an anonymous entry on the register is valid " , a Cabinet Office spokeswoman said . Under existing legislation , domestic abuse survivors must provide a court order or have their application supported by a senior independent witness , such as a high-ranking police officer , in order to appear anonymously on the electoral register . The changes set out by ministers will add doctors , nurses and refuge managers to the list of people who can act as an attester and lower the rank of police officers authorised to perform the function from superintendent to inspector . The type of evidence which can be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and female genital mutilation protection orders into the list of accepted documents . Constitution minister Chris Skidmore said : " Ensuring every eligible person is able to vote is a matter of social justice . Every voice matters and this Government will continue to encourage our record levels of democratic participation by ensuring we have a democracy that works for everyone . " Home Office minister Sarah Newton said : " Domestic abuse has a devastating and often lifelong impact on victims , their children , family and friends . " These changes come at a time when the Government is bringing forward a landmark Domestic Violence and Abuse Bill which will protect and support victims , recognise the devastating impact domestic abuse can have on young people , and ensure agencies respond effectively . " Although anyone can opt out of having their details on the widely-available open electoral register , they are entered in the full register available to view in council offices unless they have been allowed to register anonymously .

Carly Rae Jepsen wo n't ever let her ego play into her songwriting ability . The Canadian star released album Emotion , boasting single I Really Like You , in June 2015 and in August of last year ( 16 ) she unveiled Emotion : Side B , with eight cut tracks from the record . Her latest material has garnered praise from fans and critics , but Carly does n't plan to let the compliments go to her head . " I appreciate it , but I think with every album that I make there always has to be this feeling of just self-satisfaction with it , of just feeling like , I 've made music that people really connect to , but you ca n't really control what the reaction 's going to be , " she told W magazine . " If you start to feed into how that good that feels or let your ego play into it a bit , I think it can change the way you continue to write . I 've always felt like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nice to not really feed too much into your own head about , because if people were saying the opposite thing I 'd still want to be able to love the album the same way that I do . " One of her songs , Cut to the Feeling , was intended to feature on Side B , but instead , Carly saved it to appear in animated movie Ballerina ( known as Leap ! in the U.S. ) , in which she voices former dancer Odette . The singer does n't regret her decision , insisting the film is the " perfect fit " for the tune . Discussing how she became a part of the silver screen venture , the 31-year-old explained it was the theatrical side of her that wanted to get involved . " It was a total trip . It was a really funny experience , being someone who has no experience in this line of work , to be guided by people and take on this specific , very unlike-me character , " she smiled . |

Suicide bombings are becoming more and more regular in Maiduguri as Islamic terrorist group Boko Haram loses territory . After the usual shock and scramble to help those injured , it takes a while for the military and police to assess what 's happened , but the revelations the next day were n't a surprise .

Women and girls have become the weapon of choice in a war that has been vastly ignored in Europe , but has caused immeasurable destruction in west Africa . The death toll from eight years of conflict is now approaching 100,000 , according to officials . Tens of thousands have been kidnapped and millions forced from their homes . But it 's impossible to understand the level of barbarity displayed by Boko Haram 's leadership without looking at the fragility of the attackers and the societal lack of women 's rights which led them to be victimised like this .

They were older , had clear personal explanations for why they were involved and there was no strong evidence of coercion , O'Rourke wrote in 2008 . In stark contrast , what Boko Haram is doing stands out as unique and sinister . Why are women and girls being used like this ? Boko Haram 's use of female suicide bombers first began after the kidnapping of the Chibok schoolgirls in 2014 , with researchers suggesting the group realised the ability of young female bodies to attract global attention .

' Especially ( in ) the northeast of Nigeria women are not given much respect , they are not seen as equals and can easily be cowed into obeying whatever vile instructions are given to them . ' Yesufu - who has been key in forcing the Nigerian government to acknowledge the scale of the crisis - said women are left out of decision-making processes in Nigeria , meaning many are n't used to exercising their opinion .

In the past , women have carried explosives in a handbag , inside food balanced on their head , or put them in a cloth with a baby . Sally Hayden How do Boko Haram recruit women ? Tens of thousands of girls and women have been kidnapped by Boko Haram militants over the past few years . Female captives who have escaped the group speak of mandatory indoctrination sessions where Boko Haram would ask for volunteers to go on suicide missions , promising women that they would go straight to heaven if they stepped forward . Reports of this began emerging late 2014 , when a 13-year-old girl told investigators she was donated to Boko Haram by her father . Militants then threatened to bury her alive if she @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to escape and turn herself in . Other guardians simply wo n't turn down an offer of money . Across war-torn Borno State and Adamawa State , former Boko Haram captives told me girls are being sold by their parents for sums of between 100,000 and 400,000 naira ( ? 200- ? 500 ) , or given in exchange for properties that had been stolen off others . What impact has it had on women 's lives outside Boko Haram ? Many women say they 're now viewed with more suspicion , particularly if they 're wearing traditional Islamic garments such as the burka and niqab which have been used by bombers to conceal explosive vests in the past . Some complained of being held longer at checkpoints , searched multiple times or of having problems using public transport . Sally Hayden Others said they 're constantly hassled walking alone .

Despite the devastation of the ongoing war , campaigners and locals are still hoping it forces the authorities to recognise the importance of empowering women and giving girls an education . ' The more educated a woman , the more she is aware of her rights , ' Gangaran said , pointing out that the insurgency has usurped long-defined gender roles in the northeast in a myriad of other ways .

But those on the ground say there are other , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The use of women is mainly from the fact that they are expendable , ' said Aisha Yesufu , an Abuja-based campaigner with Bring Back Our Girls - a pressure group set up following the kidnapping of 276 schoolgirls from Chibok in 2014 . Sally Hayden ' Women are easy targets and they are easily controlled , ' she said . ' Especially ( in ) the northeast of Nigeria women are not given much respect , they are not seen as equals and can easily be cowed into obeying whatever vile instructions are given to them . ' Yesufu - who has been key in forcing the Nigerian government to acknowledge the scale of the crisis - said women are left out of decision-making processes in Nigeria , meaning many are n't used to exercising their opinion . She said this is particularly true of women who barely attended school . ' They have been programmed to always obey , ' she said . ' Keeping the women uneducated or half-educated ensures male dominance over them . ' Unfortunately , the conflict means that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 11 million children are out of school in the northeast , according to UN figures . ' Women are chosen because they have access to places and can easily sweet talk their way into a setting , ' Gangaran said . They can also conceal explosives more easily by wearing loose clothing . In the past , women have carried explosives in a handbag , inside food balanced on their head , or put them in a cloth with a baby . Sally Hayden How do Boko Haram recruit women ? Tens of thousands of girls and women have been kidnapped by Boko Haram militants over the past few years . Female captives who have escaped the group speak of mandatory indoctrination sessions where Boko Haram would ask for volunteers to go on suicide missions , promising women that they would go straight to heaven if they stepped forward . Reports of this began emerging late 2014 , when a 13-year-old girl told investigators she was donated to Boko Haram by her father . Militants then threatened to bury her alive if she @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to escape and turn herself in . Other guardians simply wo n't turn down an offer of money . Across war-torn Borno State and Adamawa State , former Boko Haram captives told me girls are being sold by their parents for sums of between 100,000 and 400,000 naira ( ? 200- ? 500 ) , or given in exchange for properties that had been stolen off others . What impact has it had on women 's lives outside Boko Haram ? Many women say they 're now viewed with more suspicion , particularly if they 're wearing traditional Islamic garments such as the burka and niqab which have been used by bombers to conceal explosive vests in the past . Some complained of being held longer at checkpoints , searched multiple times or of having problems using public transport . Sally Hayden Others said they 're constantly hassled walking alone . Members of the CJTF vigilante group - who act as intelligence and security guards around Maiduguri - echoed this . ' When we see a strange woman , we ask where is she going @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Even educated young women say they 're used to the trauma of the bombings , but their lives have become dull . ' I used to be out all the time , doing this , doing that , but the insurgency put a stop to that , ' one told me . Despite the devastation of the ongoing war , campaigners and locals are still hoping it forces the authorities to recognise the importance of empowering women and giving girls an education . ' The more educated a woman , the more she is aware of her rights , ' Gangaran said , pointing out that the insurgency has usurped long-defined gender roles in the northeast in a myriad of other ways . ' Women are forced to become breadwinners and have to fend for their families because a massive percentage of men have been killed .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves the phrase 'comes out of pissing around', where 'comes' is an intransitive verb and 'pissing around' is a gerund phrase modifying 'goodness'. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

In their first post-Peep Show outing , David Mitchell and Robert Webb are back with Back , a ghost-story about two brothers in a country pub . They rant about cream tea , the perils of Twitter -- and whether sitcoms are doomed ' There will be people live-tweeting every joke as it happens ' ... Back . Photograph : Mark Johnson/Channel 4 In their first post-Peep Show outing , David Mitchell and Robert Webb are back with Back , a ghost-story about two brothers in a country pub . They rant about cream tea , the perils of Twitter -- and whether sitcoms are doomed Peep Show , with its agonising social encounters and undercurrent of despair , painted a bleak portrait of modern life . But according to stars David Mitchell and Robert Webb , it 's got nothing on what they 're working on now . The duo 's brand new sitcom Back , which starts tomorrow , is literally run through @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , bearded and distinguished when I meet the pair for lunch , explains : " A dead man haunts the whole series . " Part sitcom , part ghost story , Back follows grieving son Stephen ( Mitchell ) in the weeks after his father 's death as he deals with the suspiciously timed return of his foster brother Andrew ( Webb ) . The ghost is Stephen 's father , Laurie ( Matthew Holness with talcum powder in his hair ) , who Andrew remembers as a kindly man -- and Stephen recalls as a miserable git . The show repeatedly flashes back to the boys ' early years , their younger selves played alternately by child actors and Mitchell and Webb themselves , a ploy that injects the adult versions with a pathos while also providing a background hum of mild childhood trauma . Back 's premise ( in the first episode , nearly every joke is about death ) might be grave , but Mitchell and Webb have no truck with the idea that TV comedy is getting weightier . " There 's always been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ see it in Fawlty Towers and Dad 's Army , " says Mitchell . " Reginald Perrin is a show about a breakdown . All good sitcoms are about something serious . You ca n't do a joke about funny things ; you do a joke about serious things . " ' All good sitcoms are about something serious . You ca n't do a joke about funny things ; you do a joke about serious things ' ... Back . Photograph : Mark Johnson/Channel 4 Set in the English countryside , Back draws on the kind of eccentric locals and claustrophobic social circles that have previously been parodied by the likes of the League of Gentlemen . It 's also the sort of place where the idea of " Britishness " constantly rears its head . Wary of making it " sound incredibly fucking dry " , Webb explains that the show uses the family business , a traditional country pub , to explore the British obsession with heritage . " As a country we ask ourselves a lot , ' is this the real thing , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this one for the tourists ? ' " Mitchell expands . " ' Is this a real pub or a chain pub ? Is a chain pub real ? ' " Character-wise , Stephen is standard Mitchell fare : anal , seething , reluctantly moral . He 's prone to the sort of furiously logical diatribes that have characterised most of Mitchell 's comedy creations -- and that feature heavily in the conversation of the man himself . When discussing the show , Back 's writer Simon Blackwell ( whose credits include Veep , The Thick of It and Peep Show ) described recreating the " David Mitchell rhythms " -- the actor 's particular ranty cadence -- which " cross all the things he 's done " . It 's likely the first thing you think of about Mitchell , yet , surprisingly , he claims not to know what Blackwell is talking about . " I had no idea he gave it that much thought , " he says , baffled . If Mitchell is the recognisable anchor , Webb 's Andrew is the unknown quantity @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the late 80s , he infiltrates and wins over the family with his purported business acumen and apparent geniality . But it 's unclear why he 's really come back , says Webb , explaining that sometimes he 'd do two takes -- as " Mr Evil and then Mr Nice Guy " -- and leave it up to the creators to decide which to use . He also worked hard to distance himself from his best-known creation , " making sure that Jeremy from Peep Show 's petulance does n't seep through in a way I 'm not in control of , because I 've been playing this extremely aggressive and sarcastic character . " Back is the duo 's first post-Peep Show acting project , and will come as consolation to a nation still mourning the loss of the most relatably dysfunctional men in sitcom history . Judging by the amount of times Mitchell and Webb bring it up , they clearly need something to take the edge off too . And the fact that even they view Back through the prism of Peep Show is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( probably unfavourably ) with that beloved sitcom . But it 's also true that the prospects for new comedy in general are n't exactly rosy . I mention Ben Elton 's recent BBC lecture on how new sitcoms are torn limb from limb by both critics and social media users in a matter of minutes . " There will be people live tweeting every joke as it happens , " says Webb in anticipation of the reaction to Back . " It 's this weird rapid response thing ... at least get to the end of the first half an hour before you have a hot take . " ' To do a comedy show is a noble endeavour ' ... Peep Show . Photograph : Channel 4 " The reason we gun for comedy in the press and on social media is because fundamentally we care about it more than other genres , " says Mitchell . " But we must n't let the fact that as a culture we love comedy so much make us destroy all of our comedy . " It 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a result of mean reviews , slashed budgets ( " a comedy programme takes a huge amount of money to make and effort , yet the viewing figures are always far below what you get for a second-rate new cookery series " says Mitchell ) or a wider shift in society . The duo began their comedy careers in the Cambridge Footlights and say that the added pressure students have now is n't conducive to producing the comics of tomorrow . Huge fees , says Mitchell , mean " people think very differently about university ; you do n't think of it as a place of exploration to find yourself -- that seems an environment where the goodness that comes out of pissing around will be eradicated , except for people who are already wealthy . " Tellingly , it was hard to ignore the number of children of famous comedians , from Ruby Wax to Ian Hislop , who took shows to the Edinburgh fringe this year . Mitchell and Webb may be fixtures of the comedy firmament , but they still have that hypercritical public to contend @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " I try and remind myself that to do a comedy show is a noble endeavour , " says Mitchell stoically . " And it does n't become ignoble if it does n't necessarily work . " |

Date published : Wednesday 6th September 2017 1:40 Two more days ; we can do it . Keep those mails coming to **25;493;TOOLONG , and domestic football will be back soon ... Hey , you ca n't say Arsenal are n't interesting When all the crap went down with Arsenal last week , I decided I had enough stress in my life right now and as such I would keep my football following quota to a minimum this season . My initial attempt has been aided by the international break and my anger has somewhat subsided . Unexpectedly a new feeling has come to the fore -- intrigue . Seriously . Our season has the potential to be a clusterf*ck of epic proportions given the on and off field issues we 're dealing with . Rifts within the playing group , obvious player discontent and a severe lack of motivation for some key players , inadequate squad size , new players wondering what the hell they got themselves in to and finally a board and manager @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up with their actions ( has it ever ? ) . It 's just inviting more pressure than anyone could possibly handle . Like F365 , I 'm even curious to see how our former players are going to go in apparently greener pastures . It 's a car crash in slow motion and I ca n't avert my eyes . This season my ultimately be disappointing ( again ) but it 'll at least be entertaining , if not for the right reasons.Matt Wright , Gunner in Aus How 's that statement of intent going ? Rough 10 days for Alexis Sanchez : -- thumped 4-0 by Liverpool -- does n't get his move to Man City -- lose 3-0 at home to Paraguay -- coach says he 's fat -- loses 1-0 at Bolivia and now sit 6th in South American qualifying . Vincent Janssen , and the two-way street of loyalty Just a quick note to highlight how Spurs have reportedly treated Vincent Janssen over the past week , leading up to the end of the transfer window and reportedly trying to force @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ works both ways -- something to remember when Vertonghen , Alderweireld , Dier and Alli start angling for a move or an improved contract . A lot has been written about van Dijk , Coutinho , Costa and their behaviour during the window -- it must not be forgotten that if they were not good enough , the clubs would be doing their best to get rid.Tim Harrington ( QPR ) , London A great mail on kids and physical attributes In response to Cortez and Aravind about physical attributes and positions . I am a coach of youth football with FA accreditation in inner-city London and it does happen . Every year , a new crop of kids come to play and learn the game , kids of all shapes and sizes and ability usually coupled with a male parent who has formed their own view of their child 's ability and most of all position . Even though before a game is played we do drills about technique , fitness and positioning/awareness but a group of coaches still make assumptions for the first few games @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sadly , the child who is bigger than the rest is placed at centre-half or striker , the smaller , faster kid with a left foot on the wing . Normally , those initial mistakes can be exceptionally quickly rectified ... such as instinct , intelligence or even fear of a challenge . The kids who are clearly in the wrong place regardless of parental interference or the child 's preference can be changed and moulded into their more natural position for their talent and not size . That does n't keep me awake at night thinking I 'm a terrible coach . It 's the kids who are good that scare the hell out of me . If you have a kid who is a natural footballer , they can be effective in multiple positions and they tend to want to be central midfield , number 10 or up-top . They may be your best player , they may win you close games and they will be very happy . But , I may have robbed that child of a career as a full-back . I do n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could have had a happy life playing in League 1 . My blind-spot is full-backs and in some instances I have had neither the vision to move a gifted player there nor the bravery to tell that child ( and their parent ) that they should play there . I take the 7/10 central midfielder and miss the 10/10 right back . By the time the scout from Fulham or QPR or AFC Wimbledon comes to view the game .... They see my 7/10 ( but not good enough ) central midfielder and do n't have the time nor vision themselves to see that the kid is great and his coach is the problem . I have coached kids who are gifted , work hard and love the game but do n't make it and stop playing and I blame myself and it hurts way more than the joy I get out of teaching kids how to get better at a game they love . There is a list of extremely successful players who swapped positions much later in their youth career at clubs due to an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ part but biases about sizes and shapes happens at Day One of football and it 's the naturally good players who suffer the most . I do n't know if there is any wisdom or insight in this long mail , genuinely do n't know but if anyone has a kid and the coach says they should change position -- give them the benefit of your and your child 's doubt.Andy , London Why we 're laughing at Barcelona We are laughing at Barcelona 's relative decline because they have betrayed their principles in favour of the almighty dollar/pound/euro . They have shown themselves not to be some paragon of virtue , but just the same as everyone else if not a bit slower to catch on . La Masia and all that nonsense were shown to be what they are -- a nice marketing tool to get you money for Suarez and Neymar until they get bored . As a Liverpool fan , I imagine it 's how lots of folks felt about us when the Premier League era began and we did n't really figure @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ die , or look a bit silly as you climb out of the grave to get your bearings.Niall , Denver A massive World Cup round-up The beauty of being one of us foreigns is we can sit back and enjoy international week . I 've had a blast . I did a recap of the first round of games and would like to finish it off : Oceania -- No surprise the first game ended 5 0 and S0lomon Islands at least made it a game this time by scoring a late equaliser . They 've got a breather now before the big one the playoff against 5th in ... S America/Conmebol -- Uruguay and Colombia improved their chances by getting points but this was a disastrous international week for Chile who lost both games including yesterday 's gim me against Bolivia . We could blame this on the loss of their two-time Copa America winner Sampaoli , but he has n't yet worked his magic with Argentina who failed to take advantage of the other South America 's version of a gim me a home game @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the automatic spots wondering where Peru came from . Argentina will need to pull their finger out against said Peru in the next round or Messi might as well retire from International football . Concacaf -- Costa Rica missed out on the opportunity to seal it but should wrap everything up in the next round . The US are trying to make it as difficult as possible and are currently in 4th place normally they should make it in the last two games . If they fail they may meet a team with whom they have a few political differences in the playoffs ... Asia/AFC -- Two teams were guaranteed to qualify in the last batch of matches . In one group the games were staggered and Australia went out and secured themselves at least a playoff spot but did n't score the goals they expected . They then watched UAE capitulate and looked fine until Saudi Arabia snuck in a goal with 30 minutes to go to qualify for the first time in 12 years . The other group was even more dramatic . Everyone started @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just a point away from a playoff spot but still finished 5th . Uzbekistan failed to use home advantage against South Korea but still looked like they had done enough until Syria had an Aguero moment and equalised deep in injury time to set up a playoff with Australia . CAF -- This was just another bunch of crazy results . Group B has become a straight fight between Nigeria and surprise team Zambia after both teams have taken 17 points between so far and the next match between them both will be crucial . Algeria and Cameroon , who were supposed to challenge , have been dreadful and have now officially been put out of their misery . Gabon got over the loss of their star man Aubameyang to win in Cote D'Ivoire to leave their group open . Egypt took revenge against Uganda to create a situation where the ticket in the group will likely go to one of them . But surely Group D is the most madcap going into the break . South Africa were top and looked odds on to make it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to previously pointless Cape Verde , who are now second in the group only on goal difference . They are behind Burkina Faso who had to score in the dying minutes of their game to deny Senegal . Top to bottom are only separated by two points with two games to go . Europe -- Congrats to Belgium . A lot of the other races are becoming clearer , with Spain , Germany and England surely qualifying at some stage in the next round of games . Portugal vs Switzerland and Netherlands vs Sweden will have serious implications . France should be able to get the one win they need but are n't inspiring confidence losing points to the likes of Luxembourg . Overall a lot of excitement this week and still a lot to come . Apparently it 's the friendlies that suckTimi . MUFC And some international thoughts Bit of a random email today on a couple of things I 've been thinking about . Firstly , the excellence of the South American qualification for the World Cup . With only two match days remaining @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with a shout of making it into the remaining 3 automatic spots and one playoff spot . the quality of the football may not be great when Brazil are n't involved but there is a lot on the line . Secondly , Europe 's own version has been a shambles . The ridiculousness of their system is further exposed when you compare them to Africa who have one less team with 53 but have still managed to create a coherent system . In short , the 26 lowest ranked teams ( 28-53 ) play a two-legged tie against another . 13 move on and join the highest ranked 27 teams . Those teams then play two-legged ties against another leaving a tidy 20 which are divided into 5 groups of 4 of which the winners qualify . This leads to the top 28 teams only playing 6 teams and groups as quality as Nigeria , Zambia , Cameroon and Algeria . Most of the games matter and are actual qualifiers in which you need to prove you deserve to go to the World Cup rather than a formality on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ simply having the two worst teams play each other at the beginning to bring it down to 53 . Thirdly , I wanted to point out that Messi has had almost 100 if not more , superior performances to that of Isco against Italy even before the age of 25 . These comparisons need to stop . That nutmeg was brutal and what he did to Verratti in that game was criminal but people are already saying it was one of the greatest nutmegs ever . It was n't even Isco 's best of 2017 . In my opinion , that match up is also proof of why PSG will fail in the Champions League this year . Marco Verratti and Adrien Rabiot are not defensive midfielders and Thiago Motta is 35 . They may be able to blow away incompetent teams like Barcelona but I do n't see them getting past Juventus . Bayern Munich and either Madrid side . Lastly , it may be tough to be an Arsenal fan now , but I hope they can find some consolation in the fact that sitting in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sanchez is likely to miss out on the World Cup after hitting a penalty down the middle in the last one and being partly to blame for defeat . He 's going to feel just as bad as you lot.Klaus , Munich Perhaps Mourinho was slamming Fergie F365 has chosen to interpret Jose 's comments about managers who stay at clubs for years and leave a club ' ready for failure ' as applying to Wenger . If you look at his comments again , they might equally apply to Ferguson , I think , even though Alex left a Premiership-winning team behind him . That team was doomed to be a one-season wonder and was very fragile around the edges . Indeed , there were some included mails that believed Alex planned it that way so as to make himself and his legacy so much more memorable and important as the team rapidly declined . Me ? No , I do n't believe the conspiracy theorists for one moment . If I had to ( reluctantly ) offer an opinion as to how a Premiership-winning team @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the teams below us were even crappier . To get back to Jose 's comments again , I do think they apply more to Ferguson than Wenger , even if that was not Mourinho 's intention . Simply because Ferguson actively , and determinedly campaigned for Moyes to be his replacement . And , if that 's not setting-up a team for failure , I do n't know what is.Jonesey , Melbourne |

A study has shown e-cigarettes may be a " gateway out of tobacco smoking " for young people . Public Health England ( PHE ) undertook research into vaping after concern was raised about the use of e-cigarettes among 11 to 16 year-olds . Data involving 60,000 teenagers showed there is no evidence that vaping is more harmful to people 's health . Out of the young people who were surveyed , only three per cent used e-cigarettes at least once a week and were n't likely to take up " old-style " smoking as a result . Dan Merchant , who is the founder of Vape Club , a Watford business , said : " It is fantastic to see the results of PHE 's study mirror what we in the industry have been saying for so long - vaping is not a gateway to smoking . " It is an extremely effective gateway out of smoking , but the gate does not open both ways . " The sale of vaping devices and e-liquids to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ several years , and with the full implementation of the TRPR earlier this year all online retailers must ensure they conduct proper age verification on all orders .

" However they do need to urgently revise restrictions on bottle size and bring 0mg liquids under the regulations in order to curb the new tide of companies trying to circumnavigate the regulations for a quick buck .

Software giant Micro Focus soared to the top of the FTSE 100 yesterday after shaking off fears that recently acquired HPE Software could be tricky reboot as the new division surprisingly arrested its revenue decline . e software business , which specialises in revitalising ailing software businesses , jumped 136p to ? 23.43 as its new business ' adjusted revenues declined by just 3pc in the third quarter , a significant improvement on the 9pc plummet it experienced in the previous quarter .

The improvement in HPE Software 's margins ahead of the ? 6.8bn deal , which was completed last Friday and makes Micro Focus the biggest tech company in the UK , " should ideally mean a quicker path " to margin recovery , argued Citi analyst Rahul Chopra .

The company 's competitive advantage in its supply chain and its online-only model will bump up its shares for years to come , analyst Andrew Ross told clients . While boohoo.com , a big fish in a small pond on the junior market , is pricey at its valuation and could face some margin pressure in the future due to its new warehouse and limited tech investment , its PrettyLittleThing division has undergone " extremely strong progression " over the summer and is almost as big as rival Missguided in terms of users . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Beazley dived as investors started to count the cost of payouts from Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma reached land in the Caribbean , potentially racking up more heavy losses for the companies .

Though its 60 to 80 point climb still leaves the index around 100 points away from where it started yesterday , that the Dow Jones did n't continue its North Korea-fearing fall was enough to cheer up Europe 's previously gloomy investors . " Talking of the forex markets , there was almost no movement between the dollar/euro/pound this Wednesday .

Markets expected the central bank to hold off from increasing its overnight rate for the second time this year but in the last few moments it has shrugged off inflation concerns and hiked rates anyway . The markets thought there was just a 43pc probability of a hike today but Canada 's strong economic performance has persuaded its rate-setters to tighten policy . In its statement it emphasised that inflation was progressing as expected : " While inflation remains below the 2 per cent target , it has evolved largely as expected in July . There has been a slight increase in both total CPI and the Bank 's core measures of inflation , consistent with the dissipating negative impact of temporary price shocks and the absorption of economic slack .

Deutsche Bank chief John Cryan said that while cheap money has helped countries and banks " emerge from the financial crisis " - the ECB is currently pouring ? 60bn ( ? 55bn ) into the economy each month - it is now causing " ever greater upheavals " across a number of areas .

If the ECB does n't announce the tightening of monetary policy tomorrow then its next meetings in October and December will the dates in investors ' diaries The markets have been poised all summer for Mario Draghi and the ECB to announce that monetary policy could begin returning to normal as the eurozone 's recovery strengthens .

But Mr Draghi held fire and analysts are starting to believe he may delay for a little longer still .

As a result , while there could be a brief spike higher for the euro , it will be temporary . " We feel FX markets are continuing to underestimate the cautiousness of the ECB in changing its policy settings . Investors should be wary , as ECB policymakers are already concerned about the rise in the euro . " In addition to Deutsche Bank 's chief executive John Cryan calling for a change in monetary policy at the ECB in tomorrow 's meeting , Germany 's finance minister Wolfgang Sch ? uble said at the same conference that " we should get back to a normal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has returned to a " normal situation much quicker than people thought " , putting more pressure on ECB president Mario Draghi and co to begin tapering the central bank 's bond-buying programme . The owner of pizza chain Franco Manca has warned profits will be below market expectations The owner of the Franco Manca pizza chain has said it wo n't raise prices in the short term in spite of a summer customer lull and rising costs which prompted it to issue a profit warning and knocked a fifth off its shares . Aim-listed Fulham Shore , which also owns The Real Greek chain , said reduced levels of trade , particularly in its sites in the London suburbs , had hit sales and that higher costs from the likes of the national living wage and rising business rates had pushed costs up .

Kim Jong-un could conduct more tests on Saturday , North Korea 's founding day A fresh wave of investor angst as tensions continue to rise on the Korean Peninsular has hit stock markets this morning with the FTSE 100 retreating 0.7pc on the renewed sell-off . Financial stocks , which are also nervy due to the dovish comments on hiking interest rates from US Federal Reserve policymaker Lael Brainard yesterday and ahead of the ECB 's meeting tomorrow , have suffered most in London this morning . Housebuilders have also retreated despite strong interim results from Barratt Developments with investors unimpressed by the company 's cautious guidance . On the forex markets , the pound has been lifted to $1.3050 against the dollar on the back of those comments from Ms Brainard and has recovered early lost ground against the euro with a dearth of economics data available this morning to move the currencies . The development market for both housing and commercial buildings is holding up in the UK regions as land sales remain high , according to land company Harworth . The company has continued to buy sites in the north of England and the Midlands in order to expand its pipeline , and has ambitions to expand into other regions of the UK . Harworth , which owns and manages more than 22,000 acres of land across 140 sites , works to make so-called brownfield land suitable for development . Much of its portfolio comes from its former life as the real estate arm of UK Coal .

" While many refineries may have some lasting impact , the fact that we have seen the storm move away from the sensitive Texas region means that we will see many refineries back on track , raising demand for crude , and raising the supply of gasoline . " With crude prices on the rise , there are hopes that this will help boost the commodity heavy FTSE 100 index . " While we 're on oil , Petrofac 's 5.3pc share price jump on the FTSE 250 is also worth a mention . The mid-cap services firm is leading the pack on the index after tying up a $700m contract to maintain an oil processing facility in Russia . ECB president Mario Draghi was tight-lipped over monetary policy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The pound has given up some of yesterday 's strong gains against the euro this morning as the ECB 's latest policy meeting hangs over the markets ECB president Mario Draghi could announce that the central bank will soon begin tapering its ? 60bn-a-month quantitative easing programme but the markets ' hopes of a shift tomorrow are dwindling . A growing number of analysts believe that the eurozone 's recovery is now strong enough to withstand a shift in monetary policy but sources within the central bank say that its policymakers are still worried that eurozone inflation might be too weak . Sports Direct has attempted to soothe the City ahead of a rebellion against its chairman by revealing that it is optimistic about the success of its " Selfridges of sport " strategy . The strategy , unveiled last year , has been the brainchild of Sports Direct majority shareholder and chief executive Mike Ashley , who two weeks ago announced @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was too busy . His attempt to turn Sports Direct into a version of the upmarket department store comes after years of the sportswear retailer 's " pile it high , sell it cheap " strategy . This damaged its relationship with brands like Nike and Adidas . As a result of not stocking the latest ranges of trainers and leggings , Sports Direct has missed out on the lucrative athleisure trend , which has fuelled growth at archrival JD Sports . The Bank of Canada 's latest monetary policy meeting is also something to keep an eye on this afternoon with the central bank set to soon hike rates for the second time in the current cycle . The markets are currently pricing in a 43pc probability of an interest rate rise today but analysts believe that dwindling hike hopes in the US could be enough to keep rates unchanged at 0.75pc . Derek Halpenny , European head of global markets research , explains why the BoC might hold off from raising rates for now : " On the surface , it could @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for a the Bank of Canada to hike rates today as inflation is drifting higher , retail sales were much stronger than expected and Q2 annualised real GDP was the strongest since Q3 2011 . " However , there are reasons for caution too . USD/CAD has now declined by 10% since early May and that scale of move can not be ignored . There are also a number of key events over the coming weeks , including the formal start of balance sheet shrinkage by the FOMC , which the BoC will likely wish to gauge the fallout from before acting . " There 's no top grade economics data for traders to digest but there are a couple of little bits from Europe that are worth a quick mention . A mixed bag of figures in Germany saw new work in the construction sector rise at a record pace in August but month-on-month factory orders growth unexpectedly dived to -0.7pc . Meanwhile in the eurozone , retail PMI fell to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ France and Italy weighing most on the figures . Alex Gill , an economist at IHS Markit , said : " Mixed messages were evident in the latest eurozone retail data . While monthly sales continued to rise , they did so at a weaker and marginal pace . " Furthermore , diverging trends were illustrated at the country level , with the overall slowdown largely a result of a marked moderation in like-for-like sales growth in France . " Negative sessions in the US and Asia have continued this morning in Europe European stocks have largely taken their cue from very negative sessions overnight in the US and Asia . The Dow Jones slipped 1.1pc yesterday with traders ' reaction to the weekend 's nuclear weapons testing in North Korea delayed by Monday 's bank holiday in the states .

ETX Capital Neil Wilson said that investors are n't convinced by the new rules : " The only important number is ? 50m -- the amount Ryanair says it will cost the airline in lost check-in charges .

The thick black curls that helped make Michael Keaton look so manic in all those 1980s comedies , and which he then tore at as a tormented Bruce Wayne in Tim Burton 's Batman movies , are long gone ; but the satyr-like eyes are unchanged . As he walks into a London hotel room on a grey Saturday morning , holding a cup of coffee , he looks strikingly different from the man I have spent four decades watching on screen : he has the trim , spry build of a wiry woodsman rather than a 66-year-old actor , thanks to half a lifetime spent in rural Montana , fishing and hunting . His walk is reminiscent of a rooster 's strut , with his chest puffed out and a bounce on his toes ; that swagger we saw in 2014 's Birdman , for which Keaton won a Golden Globe as the eponymous former superhero actor , was not a put on , it turns out . " Hadley , huh ? My niece is called Hadley , " he says , shaking my hand , and embarks on a winding digression about Ernest Hemingway @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hemingway descendants whom Keaton has met over the years , and do I know them ( I do not ) , and how I really ought to meet them . So was his niece named after Hadley Hemingway , I manage to ask . " Huh ? Oh no , I just think her mom liked the name , " he says , and he 's off again , talking about everything from whether or not he 's a liberal ( he is , mostly ) to why climate change should n't be politicised . Keaton is not a straight Q&A kind of guy ; his approach to conversation is a little like his eyebrows , looping in memorable and unexpected directions . He has made a career out of taking the unpredictable route : you can never guess his next role , and then he never plays it the way you 'd expect . In his breakthrough movie , 1983 's Mr Mom , Keaton played a stay-at-home father at a time when such a concept was almost unheard of , and he played him as a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the stereotypically masculine jobs around the house ; when asked if he 's rewiring the house with 220 volts , Keaton adlibbed , " 220 , 221 , whatever it takes " . He was the dazzlingly frenetic lead in Tim Burton 's Beetlejuice , a largely improvised performance opposite fellow ghosts Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis . With Burton again , he played Batman as a conflicted nerd , rather than a grinning muscle man . In Birdman , he plays an actor so neurotic , he ends up running through Manhattan in his underwear . He surprises me today by arriving with a big grin , which is unexpected in a man who has never made any secret of his dislike of interviews : you do n't move to the middle of Montana at the peak of your celebrity if you enjoy being the centre of attention . But he is clearly having a ball on this , the second wave of his career . Since Birdman , he has played the editor of the Boston Globe in the 2015 ensemble movie Spotlight , which won a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as Ray Kroc , the man who turned McDonald 's into a franchise , in 2016 's too-little-seen The Founder . " It 's all fun , man , " Keaton says , " and at a point when you do n't have anything to prove ? Yeah . We 're all here for a millisecond , so how bad can this be ? " he says , his drawn-out vowels ( " maaan " , " baaad " ) revealing his Pittsburgh origins . This month , he plays a CIA special ops trainer , Stan Hurley , in the Bourne-esque American Assassin . Hurley is training up a new damaged-but-brilliant recruit ( Dylan O'Brien ) , who wants to kill Middle Eastern terrorists after they killed his girlfriend . Keaton 's crazy eyebrows are put to good use as the on-the-edge mentor , but it is a somewhat baffling choice for him : the movie is undeniably generic for an actor who has always eschewed straightforward genre . But maybe this is just another of Keaton 's surprises ? " Yeah , exactly , and not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ say " -- he switches mercifully briefly into an appalling English accent -- " but that 's what keeps me interested . My boredom level is fairly low . And that 's too bad , but that 's the way it is , and this genre , a committed action thriller movie , was just different for me . A change . " I do n't get the impression it 's a change he 'll necessarily repeat . When I mention one particularly intense scene , he shrugs : " I think I 'm OK in it . I 'd like another shot at it , but the director wanted to turn the volume up . You have to ask yourself , ' OK , what kind of movie is this ? It 's an action movie . OK . ' You have to buy into the programme . " After becoming known for his hyper-comedic performances in the early 80s , Keaton switched to dramatic roles -- first as a recovering drug addict in Clean And Sober ( a flop ) and then as Batman ( one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . In the space of five years , he went from total unknown to household name . He also got married , to actor Caroline McWilliams , and had a son , Sean . Can he even remember any of that presumably pretty overwhelming decade ? " Not really , no , and that 's a good way of putting it : married , house , kid right away , career , a lot of attention , which is not something I 'm crazy about . I do n't hate it , but it 's never my first choice . It was mostly good , " he says . He and McWilliams divorced in 1990 . Keaton 's Batman completely changed the way superheroes were portrayed in Hollywood movies , coining the reluctant , self-loathing alter ego that is still de rigueur 30 years later ( Christian Bale 's Batman , Andrew Garfield 's Spider-Man , almost all of the X-Men ) . But he was a controversial choice and fans bombarded the Warner Bros studio with furious letters , insisting Keaton was too weird and weedy , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : " He 's got all that wild energy in his eyes , which would compel him to put on a bat-suit ... He does it because he needs to , because he 's not this gigantic strapping macho man , " Burton later said . I interviewed Burton a few years ago and , meeting Keaton , it is obvious why the two men feel such an affinity ( they are currently working together again , on Burton 's live-action remake of Dumbo ) . Although Keaton is n't as outwardly eccentric , he has a similar tendency towards unmediated stream-of-consciousness responses , and blunt plain-speaking -- both the opposite of slick Hollywood schmooze . It must have been particularly hard for them , facing so much scrutiny during Batman , but Keaton insists he was n't aware of it -- or not until he happened to pick up the business section of a newspaper and saw a cartoon of his face in an article suggesting that he , personally , would damage Warner Bros ' stock . " I truly did n't understand why people cared one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ still care . I just thought , ' I know what I 'm doing , and I could be wrong , but in terms of what Tim and I discussed for the movie , I knew we were right on , ' " he says now . And they were : Burton 's first Batman film remains one of the most interesting big-budget movies ever made , with Keaton 's psychologically subtle performance a major part of that . But unlike Riggan , the Birdman character who becomes obsessed by his superhero alter ego , Keaton walked away , refusing to make Batman 3 when Burton was n't rehired as director . Was he also just sick of the bat-suit by then ? " The film just was n't any good , man . I tried to be patient , but after a certain point , I was like , I ca n't take this any more , this is going to be horrible . But , look , there was some really horrible taste in the 90s , and I probably contributed to that , unfortunately . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was known for their jets and their stuff . And I thought , I 'm in this job for the long run , I do n't want this . And the truth is , I 'm not boasting , but I was correct . There are a whole load of people who ran things that are long gone . " Joel Schumacher 's two Batman movies were notoriously terrible , starring first Val Kilmer and then George Clooney . A few years later , Keaton had a cameo as a detective in Steven Soderbergh 's Out Of Sight with Clooney . Did they swap bat tales ? " I did n't , " he says , " but he used to shout at me , ' Hey , the brotherhood ! ' And I 'd go , ' Hey ! ' But I had no idea what he meant . Swear to God ! And he did it a bunch of times : ' Brotherhood ! ' And then someone explained it to me and I was like , ' Ohhhhh ! ' I mean , I think @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ After Batman , Keaton took a series of notably unstarry roles -- a tenant from hell opposite Melanie Griffith and Matthew Modine in Pacific Heights , a hammy Dogberry in Kenneth Branagh 's Much Ado About Nothing . There was a run of comedies , including Harold Ramis ' Multiplicity , in which he played a man who clones himself , that were smart and funny , but never going to set the world on fire . Was he deliberately trying to get out of the shadow of the bat signal , or did he just like the scripts ? " Look , it 's not like I do n't think about the business -- I am cognisant of that side of things -- but if you overthink the money part , you tend to mess it up . I actually thought Birdman might not work , but I also thought , even if it does n't work , I want to be a part of this kind of creativity . I want to be around this . It 's like making movies with Tim Burton , " he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Being around that is so much fun , you just want to be in that environment . " After Out Of Sight , he pretty much disappeared for next 16 years . What happened ? " Look , there 's two different things here , " he says , leaning forward and tapping my knee , emphasising his points in a manner that feels more paternal than creepy . " There 's me taking a pause : I really like life , doing things , having a normal life . So there was that . And there was me getting bored , hearing the sound of my voice , seeing the same old tricks . So I may have lost interest , combined with a whole lot of people not knocking on my door . It was n't just me . But I also consciously started to slowly change things internally , and it worked . " What does he mean by changing things internally ? Dealing with the mental side of things ? " Yeah , yeah . Just thinking about things , asking what @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ am I going to get to there ? And it takes a lot of stumbling around , and it takes discipline . " He spent those years hanging out in Montana , hunting with neighbours and walking in the woods . His family visited him , and there have been girlfriends ( he is in a relationship now , but it 's the one subject he refuses to discuss ) , but in the main he was on his own . It 's the life , he says , that he dreamed of as a little boy . *** Michael Keaton grew up just outside Pittsburgh , and his real name was and remains Michael Douglas ; by the time he started acting , the other one had got there first . Did he ever tell him that he stole his name ? Keaton literally spits out his coffee with laughter . " Kinda ! Once we got something mixed in the mail , something from one of the acting unions , and I had to return it to him and we talked about it then . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it 's not even their name , I think ? " No , Kirk changed it from Danielovitch , I say . " Russian Jews , right ? It 's funny . " Keaton was the youngest of seven children in a working-class family , and they never went to the cinema because it was too expensive to buy tickets for all the kids . But he loved to watch old movies on TV , especially ones starring James Cagney and John Garfield . Was he drawn to acting because he was used to having an audience of siblings ? " Probably . I was talking about this with Colin Farrell the other day on the Dumbo set , actually , because he 's another youngest , and we youngests always relate to one another . You also get away with more , because by that point your parents are like , ' Who 's that again ? Oh , yeah , he 's cute , he 's been around a while . ' " He describes himself as a " weird " kid , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do n't think I was weird . I 'd be happy having me as a kid . I was a kid who liked adventure stories , who fantasised too much , who was extremely physically active . I had friends at school , but I was n't really social . I did n't really like sleepovers -- I liked sleeping outside . " This gets him thinking about his son , Sean , now 34 , when he was a boy . " He was just a really social little guy , so thoughtful and sensitive and practical , and always hanging out with friends , whereas I wanted to be on my own playing in the woods , " he says , his voice softening . Presumably that 's because he had to fight for space , whereas Sean was an only child and happy to fill the house with friends ? " Yeah , probably . He was always hanging out in groups and going to someone 's house , I remember that , " he says . After he and Sean 's mother @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Cox , and Michelle Pfeiffer , but never married again . I ask if it was strange having an only child when he grew up in such a big family . " Not strange , exactly . I wished I 'd had more , but then Sean told me he liked being an only child , " he smiles . With son Sean in 2015 . Photograph : Michael Kovac/Getty Images for Dom Perignon Sean Douglas is now a Grammy award-nominated songwriter who has worked with Madonna and Demi Lovato , and who is routinely referred to as " Michael Keaton 's hot son " . The two are often each other 's dates to award ceremonies : Sean came to the Golden Globes when his dad won for Birdman , and Keaton tearfully thanked him , calling him his " best friend " . When Keaton was last year added to the Hollywood Walk of Fame , Sean gave the speech : " I 've seen everything from Batman to bath time when I was a young kid . I 'm so proud to be your @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and I love you so much . " Keaton , standing behind his son and moving excitedly from side to side , pinked with delight . Initially , Keaton thought about going into comedy rather than acting , and you can still find some of his very funny standup routines online . The most striking thing about them is how little he has changed : on stage , he comes across as a nervy , neurotic fast-talker given to flights of surrealism . In one routine , he talks about how just a look from a stranger on the streets of New York can send him into therapy ; in another , he imagines what it would be like if the cartoon strips that used to come with gum packets explored philosophical concepts . " My mom 's side of the family and my brothers and sisters are really funny -- that 's the Irish Catholic side . My father 's side , the Scottish Protestant side ? Not so much , " he says . I tell him I always thought it was a shame he did @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Keaton reels back in his chair , hands over his face . " Aw , man ! Planes , Trains & Automobiles -- that 's the movie I really wish I 'd been in ! " he says , citing the 1987 John Hughes classic starring John Candy and Steve Martin . " Do you remember when people would write off John Hughes and those movies he made ? " " Really ? " he cries , bouncing out of his seat . A publicist comes in to tell us our time is up , but he waves her away . " Wait a minute , she 's really smart and I need to talk to her about this , " he says pointing at me , although I suspect this is more about John Hughes than my intellect . " I mean , if you look at the specificity of John Hughes ' direction in those movies , it 's incredible , " he continues . " These were n't just cute little movies ; these were about the economy , employment , unemployment , small towns . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ We spend 10 minutes nerding out over The Breakfast Club , before he thinks back to when he met Hughes while making Mr Mom : " I read the script and I thought , ' Wow , this is really funny , this guy has something . ' And then I met John and I said , ' You ought to direct this too . ' But he said no , he was off to direct those movies starring people closer to your age , " he says , referring to the teen movies , which is sweet , because I am in my late 30s . " But , yeah , I would have loved to have worked with him . That would have been an experience . " Commenting on this piece ?

During the Labor Day weekend , Katie Holmes and Jamie Foxx announced their romantic relationship in a very subtle way as they walked hand-in-hand on the beaches of Malibu .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'keeps Sinn Fein out of forming a new executive with the DUP' does not involve a causer and causee relationship with a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a state or condition preventing Sinn Fein from forming a new executive, which does not align with the defined properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

He has been president of Sinn Fein for over thirty years . The Dublin journalist Fintan O'Toole has joked that comparisons between Sinn Fein and North Korea are unfair , given that North Korea has had three presidents in that time . Yet there was some simmering expectation that this year 's Ard Fheis ( conference ) might see Gerry Adams standing down . He will be 69 when the conference is convened in November and that seems a reasonable age for a man to depart from politics . He has secured his place in history as the one who merged the revolutionary and the constitutional expressions of Irish nationalism , which have been divided against each other since the 1850s . He ca n't be stuck for a bob since he has had two salaries for most of the last thirty five years , as a party president and an elected representative in three different parliaments - some of those spells overlapping . And he has often said that he would like to devote more time to writing , gardening and even opera . He is fit and healthy and has a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ scars of four old bullet wounds in his body but he still climbs Mount Errigal near his country retreat and enjoys long country walks . So why stay on ? Well , probably because the tenacity which kept him active so long does not simply dissolve with age . You do have to really believe in yourself to face the kind of criticism and opprobrium that Adams has endured down the decades . Many people regard him with some justice as a warlord with responsibility for awful unwarranted carnage . But while that rattles him at times , he keeps going . No other political figure , perhaps in any democratic country in the world , has braved searching interviews for so long and been accused of so much . Just three years ago he was arrested on suspicion of ordering the murder of a mother of ten children , Jean McConville . The police got an extension of his custody to try to , at least , get a charge of IRA membership against him , undoubtedly keen to jail him . They believe @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ given them that extension . Other party leaders , like Margaret Thatcher have had a similar doggedness and sense of their indispensability . The difference there was that they had party grey suits to face , who could tell them that their time was up . Sinn Fein is n't that kind of a party . It loves and obeys Gerry Adams . His nicknames within it have been The Boss and God . Look at how he appointed the successor to Martin McGuinness , his lately deceased sidekick . He merely appointed Michelle O'Neill to the post of Northern Leader . Currently she is God 's representative on earth , speaking his mind to the media , to explain the deadlock that keeps Sinn Fein out of forming a new executive with the DUP . There must be others in the party who would have liked that job , who think that they would have stood a chance if there had been a vote within the assembly party . If so , none are complaining . None are challenging God . If Adams @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ O'Neill will go into partnership with DUP leader Arlene Foster to govern . But he may prefer continuing deadlock to resolution . He has the stomach for it and none of the MLAs elected to Stormont , who may lose salaries if the stalemate drags on , has the heart to challenge him . Indeed , a similar cloud hangs over Sinn Fein TDs in the Dublin parliament , the Dail . No party there will enter coalition with Sinn Fein , while Adams remains leader . But if they want him to go and free up their prospects of ministerial office they are not saying . So , it seems very likely that Adams will be elected party president again . He says that in that case he will announce his plans for generational change in the party . Conceivably he just wants the adulation of the party , a massive endorsement , and will then prepare for early departure . He is vain . A reading of his memoirs shows how much he loves to be loved . And he is loved . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is more likely that he is staying on to choose his successor and bind the party to his own vision for another decade . Perhaps he needs to . The worst that could happen , for him , is that a successor might disown him and the IRA , as Khruschev revoked the legacy of Stalin . God has good reason not to let go . * ' Gerry Adams -- An unauthorised life , ' is published by Faber & Faber , ? 14.99 . Alex Kane will review the book in a coming edition of the News Letter |

Watford 's unbeaten start to the Premier League season continued with a two-nil victory at Southampton . Abdoulaye Doucoure and Daryl Janmaat got the goals for Watford -- both efforts from outside of the box that flew into the bottom corner -- and only one side looked like winning at St Mary 's . It means Watford sit in fourth place in the top-flight and have picked up back-to-back wins on the road . We 've picked out some of the talking points from the victory . Dominant midfield The central-midfield pairing of Abdoulaye Doucoure and Nathaniel Chalobah have quickly developed a fantastic partnership and they overpowered Southampton . It was especially evident during a first-half that saw little quality , barring Doucoure 's strike , and was something of a battle in the middle third of the pitch . Chalobah pushed further forward than he has been and looked like a man possessed for the first 20 minutes -- clearly bursting with confidence after his time with England . He was physical when they did not have the ball and used it sensibly when they did . Doucoure @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from there . They just seem to complement each other perfectly and give a real steel to the spine of the Hornets ' side -- which is even more important considering the constant changes in the heart of defence . And Tom Cleverley 's role should also not be forgotten either , Silva specifically remarked about the Englishman 's performance when asked about his midfield in his post-match press conference . Together their work-rate , desire and ability mean Watford 's midfield looks far stronger than it did at the end of last year , even though there has only been one change ; Chalobah in and Etienne Capoue to the bench . Silva deserves credit for that and he 's got them playing the way he wants . On top of that , as long as Doucoure and Chalobah stay fit , you ca n't see them being split up all season long . Away day delight Marco Silva 's away record was the focus of much attention during his time at Hull , notably how poor it was compared to his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it prior to the first away game of the season at Bournemouth . If there were any doubts or worries amongst fans and onlookers , they have been well and truly extinguished now . After a dismal run of results on the road during the final three months of Walter Mazzarri 's reign , Watford have picked up back-to-back successes on their travels . While the results are pleasing , it is the all-round displays that are most eye-catching to those at the games . They have never looked like losing either of them -- and Southampton and Bournemouth are now well-established Premier League sides . Gomes was barely troubled at St Mary 's with the Saints ' first shot on target coming in the final ten minutes -- and even that was a weak effort from outside the box . They are controlling games and shutting down the opposition . Silva 's sorted out their game-plans in the week , which they have clearly worked on extensively and , most importantly , the players have stuck to their task and put exactly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Super subs Granted , Silva was forced into making changes due to the injuries to Kaboul and Femenia 's injuries , but it is not the first time this season that those coming off the bench have had an impact . Richarlison set up Miguel Britos ' stoppage-time equaliser against Liverpool , Etienne Capoue doubled the Hornets ' lead at Bournemouth and now Janmaat 's stamped his mark on a match . It is as much about the condition these players are in when they enter the fray as it is Silva 's decisions -- which were forced upon him today . Substitutes come on to make a difference and have an impact on the game , whichever end of the pitch that may be . And sometimes it takes time for players to get used to the pace of the play and adjust to their surroundings . Within five minutes of coming on Janmaat had made a crucial interception as Soufiane Boufal went to shoot and smashed in the Hornets ' second . That is not the sort of impact @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to come on or who may be sulking that he has not started . Those on the bench are just as keen to impress Silva and be a part of this vibrant side as the players in the starting XI . Essentially it 's another marker of the atmosphere and bond within the squad -- and club as a whole -- currently . Long may that continue . Gray 's frustration All that the afternoon needed to make it perfect for Watford was an Andre Gray goal . The striker worked his socks off with little service throughout the game and showed his quality with a couple of neat flicks . But the club 's record signing never got the opportunity in front of goal and that would have been a source of great frustration for him . Although Watford were exceptional and it was not far off the perfect away performance , that both their goals came from long-range strikes tells the story . There were opportunities to play Gray through on goal or find him the box , his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ quality necessary . Gray should not be too disheartened though and his effort and running certainly does n't go unnoticed amongst the Hornets faithful . There was a moment as the clock ticked into stoppage-time in the first half when Gray won a corner out of nothing , through pure desire and hard work , those kind of things will get fans onside even if he has not opened his Watford account . And if the team as a whole keep producing performances like this , chances will come for the striker and when they do , it is only a matter of time before Gray starts putting them away . Injuries It simply does not happen . Watford can not go for any length of time without at least one of their players pulling up injured . Luckily it did not have a negative impact on the result today , but questions do have to be asked . Kiko Femenia went to hospital after limping off and it is probably fair to see that he has not suffered a muscle injury @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It appeared that he aggravated his hamstring injury and it could rule him out for longer now , something Watford can ill-afford . Why was he given the green light to play if that was the case and why do Watford keep picking up similar muscle injuries ? The medical department was revamped to a certain extent last September and there were changes again this summer -- the bottom line is they have not worked . It is tough to say it is just bad luck given the amount of problems they 've had too . Heads will be being scratched behind the scenes and any issues need to be sorted out as soon as possible . It might not have cost Watford today , but if it keeps happening regularly then it is only a matter of time before Silva 's side lose points due to one . |

Hi everyone ! It 's Happy Meik here . Remember me ? I 'm the bloke who wrote last year 's surprise bestseller about how everyone should try and be a bit more Hygge . Well now I 'm back with a book about Lykke . Lykke means Happiness but my important work as chief executive of the International Happiness Research Centre in Copenhagen ( total number of employees : one ) has shown that people feel much happier if they call happiness Lykke rather than Happiness . People often ask me when I was at my most Lykke . That is a difficult question as I tend to be Lykke all the time . Especially now that I am beginning to make a lot of money out of being Lykke . But I really think I could have been most Lykke when I found a stale bit of pizza in the fridge after a day out skiing with friends . When I found the pizza I said to everyone , " I really think I 've found the meaning of happiness . This is so Hygge it is Lykke . " And they replied , " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sweet . Copenhagen is probably the most Lykke place in the world . At five o'clock in the afternoon everyone leaves work , rides home on their bicycles , does two hours of creative play with their children , goes out to do a random act of kindness to a stranger who wants to be left in peace , lights five candles and then settles down to watch several episodes of a Scandi-noir TV thriller about some psychopathic paedophile on the loose . The Little Book of Lykke ( Penguin Life , ? 9.99 ) But my extensive research in my capacity as the chief executive of the International Happiness Research Centre in Copenhagen ( total number of employees : one ) has revealed that people from some other countries in the world are occasionally happy too . So in this book I am going tell you about some of my exciting discoveries that can make you Lykke too . But first an admission : I am not always Happy Meik . Sometimes I am Not-So-Happy Meik . I was n't very Lykke when I left my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ OK not to be happy , I somehow made myself happy again . Here 's a picture of a sunset in Paris . That should help you feel Lykke . Togetherness : People who do things together are generally happier than people who do things on their own . I once spent five days observing how often people smiled outside a McDonald 's in Stuttgart and I conclusively proved that those who were on their own only smiled once every 36 minutes while those who were with friends smiled every 14 minutes . So if you want to be more Lykke , get out and do something with other people . And if you do n't know anyone , try climbing over a fence and sitting in someone else 's garden and wait for them to come home . Money : Most of us would rather have money than not have money . But my extensive research in my capacity as the chief executive of the International Happiness Research Centre in Copenhagen ( total number of employees : one ) has shown that money on its own does @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't have as much money as people in Seoul but the South Koreans are a miserable bunch . That 's because the Koreans have high expectations . They expect to have a new car every year and get depressed if they do n't . In Copenhagen we generally expect the worst to happen and if it does n't then we 're really Lykke . And we do n't buy new cars because there 's a 150% tax on them . Read more Health : The Japanese have the longest life expectancy but it does n't make them happy as they are so worried about dying young . The average Danish person will die younger even than an overweight Brit because we are so busy stuffing our faces with cakes to make ourselves Hygge with one hand and riding a bike with the other . Better to be dead and Lykke than old and UnLykke . Freedom : Feeling as though you have choices and control over your life makes you feel Lykke . Who would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ when they have young children but in Portugal they have a very different experience . That 's because Portuguese parents hand over their kids to the grandparents every night and go out and party . This makes them very Lykke . Even if it pisses off the grandparents no end . Co-operation : Being nice to people is Lykke . In Denmark we have a " Be Nice to Someone Hour " at 9.45 every morning that people have to enjoy or they are sent to prison . We also play games that try to make children feel included . In Britain , children play musical chairs where one chair is removed every time the music stops . This can make those children who lose feel bad . Far better to play the game by adding a chair every time the music stops . That way children become less and less stressed . Stating the Obvious : It may seem obvious to say this but stating the obvious for the best part of 300 pages can make you feel Lykke . Especially if someone is daft enough to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

I know we 're the same age , but I feel I 've been watching you my whole life . You 've been an idol of mine and it 's tough playing you . You proved it again tonight , you 're one of the greatest ambassadors of our sport . " VIDEO : How No.16 was won . GAME , SET AND MATCH ! - NADAL 6-3 6-3 6-4 ANDERSON . He 's done it ! Nadal is the 2017 US Open champion . It 's his third title here and his 16th major overall . The Spaniard was just too good for Anderson , serving it out on his second match point from deuce to seal victory in two hours and 27 minutes . It was a nervy final game , but in truth Rafa was in total control throughout . He has now claimed multiple Grand Slam titles in the same year for the fourth time in his career after winning La Decima at the French Open a few months back . SECOND CHAMPIONSHIP POINT FOR NADAL ! @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has another chance ... DEUCE ! A great return from Ando and Nadal hammers a tight forehand into the net . Nadal serving for the match : The Spaniard looks nervy , but gets lucky when Anderson somehow fires an overhead long . The South African does n't make the same mistake on the next point and angles an overhead backhand to make it 30-30 . Nerve-jangling moment for Nadal ... NADAL 6-3 6-3 5-4 ANDERSON . Rafa comes out all guns blazing as he looks to finish it on Ando 's serve . The South African bites back with a pair of aces and rattles through four points in a row to make Nadal serve it out . He 's done it 15 times before , but does he still get nerves ? We are about to find out . NADAL 6-3 6-3 5-3 ANDERSON . Nadal is one away from a third US Open title as he breezes through another love hold . There 's no doubt he 's been the main man over the past fortnight . A worthy champion . NADAL @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . It 's been much closer in this set without looking truly competitive . It 's almost as if Nadal got the early break and feels confident that he can coast through without being harmed by his opponent 's return game . NADAL 6-3 6-3 4-2 ANDERSON . There are cheers of support from a crowd hoping to see more tennis as Anderson takes the opening point on Nadal 's serve . However , any hopes of a break are soon quashed as Rafa takes the next three points before maintaining his advantage with a hold to 30 . The finish line is nigh for the 15-time Grand Slam winner ... who wo n't be called that for much longer with No.16 seeming imminent . Trainer treating Anderson for a cut/blister . NADAL 6-3 6-3 3-2 ANDERSON . That 's a beauty from Anderson . The world No.32 corks a backhand winner down the line to seal a love hold . Can it give him the mammoth lift he needs ? Probably not , but it does seem like Nadal 's level has dipped in the past @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Nadal on the march at 40-0 but gets a tad sloppy and allows Ando to peg back two before getting off the hook when the South African unloads long of the baseline . Nadal buzzes around the court and picks up shots that do n't seem returnable . NADAL 6-3 6-3 2-1 ANDERSON . The Buzz Saw gets on the board with a routine service game . It 's just not gone to plan tonight . It 's partly down to his own rhythm , but also due to Nadal 's relentless pressure . BREAK ! - NADAL 6-3 6-3 1-0 ANDERSON . Big Kev hammers another nail into his own coffin . He sees a 40-15 lead disappear in the blink of an eye . Rafa cranks up the heat to earn another break point and , with Anderson 's belief in tatters , the No.28 seed fires a forehand long to gift his opponent the perfect start to Set 3 . It 's all over bar the shouting . Impressive ... Most impressive ... SET ! - NADAL 6-3 6-3 ANDERSON . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ He flashes a wonderful crosscourt forehand and glances back to his box in satisfaction . It was a fourth love hold of the contest and means he is one set away from Grand Slam title No.16 . NADAL 6-3 5-3 ANDERSON . A couple of big yells of ' Come on ! ' from Anderson as he edges to a hold to 30 to pose the serve-out question to Nadal . He needs something special right now if he 's to have any hope whatsoever .... NADAL 6-3 5-2 ANDERSON . Nadal consolidates for the loss of one point , once again wowing the crowd with some outstanding court coverage . His speed and work rate really is something to behold and it must be demoralising for Ando , who can feel his dream of glory slipping away now . BREAK ! - NADAL 6-3 4-2 ANDERSON . More fist-pumping from Rafa as he delivers what could be a killer blow . The World No.1 ups the ante to snare double break point ( BP ) and converts on the second with some wonderful volleying at the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ace of the evening opens up another love hold for Rafa , who is barely being troubled by Anderson 's return game . The South African 's best hope seems to be a tie break . He needs to make Nadal 's belief falter , which is all the more difficult once the King of Clay has his nose in front . NADAL 6-3 2-2 ANDERSON . It looks like Ando 's thumping serve has now turned up . He 's finding that bruising forehand too which does plenty of damage on his way to another solid hold to 15 . NADAL 6-3 2-1 ANDERSON . That 's more like it from the Buzz Saw . He plays one of his best points of the match to dictate with power from the baseline to make 30-30 . But Nadal has built a career out of bossing the big points and he claims the next two to maintain his lead . NADAL 6-3 1-1 ANDERSON . That will feel mighty good . Anderson pulls off an easy hold to 15 for the first time , firing down a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ needs to keep that up now - but that 's easier said than done against Nadal . NADAL 6-3 1-0 ANDERSON . No let up from Nadal . He saunters to a love hold to earn the scoreboard advantage . It 's going to take a major turn of events for Anderson to stop the top seed now . SET ! - NADAL 6-3 ANDERSON . What a way to finish ! Rafa breaks again from deuce , showing a lovely touch with the drop volley at the net to take the opening set in 58 minutes . The familiar low punch celebration follows to suggest he is well and truly in the groove , which is very bad news for an already fatiguing Anderson . Very nice - but no cigar . NADAL 5-3 ANDERSON . Rafa relentlessly peppers the Anderson backhand with a flurry of forehands and it 's taking a lot out of the South African . He can do very little to halt the Spaniard 's momentum as Nadal consolidates to 15 . BREAK ! - NADAL 4-3 ANDERSON . Another @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ time a double fault offers up Rafa 's fifth opportunity to break - and it 's finally too much for Ando who flashes wide of the tramlines to give the world number one the edge . It 's been 47 minutes of resistance from the South African , but he 's up against it now . NADAL 3-3 ANDERSON . Finally , Anderson springs from defence to attack but an unforced error on a sitter of a backhand drive sees him pass up the chance of double break point . Nadal jumps on the let off and clinches the game with a sneaky serve and volley combination . NADAL 2-3 ANDERSON . Big Kev is n't being allowed to build much rhythm on the huge weapon that is his serve . Nadal continues to stand way back and is making life uncomfortable for the No.28 seed when he 's not watching the occasional ace fly by . The 15-time major winner has two more break points , but Ando refuses to buckle . He 's closing in on 50 points on his serve already , while Nadal had @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's ice cool from Nadal . He crunches a brilliant forehand winner to the left flank he 's facing to conclude a rapid love hold . Straight back over to ' Buzz Saw ' Anderson , who could really do with picking up a run of cheap points on serve after a couple of testing games . VIDEO : One of the shots of the match so far . NADAL 1-2 ANDERSON . Frustration for Rafa . He piles the pressure on to Anderson and has two break points from a lengthy stand-off from deuce , but the towering South African trades blows in some gruelling rallies and eventually pulls off a big hold . NADAL 1-1 ANDERSON . It does n't have the same venom , but under the tutelage of Carlos Moya there 's no doubr Nadal 's serve has improved . It 's certainly the case on the second serve and it helps him through a simple hold to 15 to level . NADAL 0-1 ANDERSON . Super defence from Nadal , but he still ca n't stop Anderson from getting off on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ each occasion Rafa engages him in a rally , but he delivers a couple of service winners and a pair of aces to take the game from deuce . 21.25 Anderson will serve first in the 2017 US Open final . 21.21 The players are now out on court and running through the warm up . 21.20 Or this come the end of the evening ? 21.18 So , will we see this ? 21.15 WHAT WILL THIS DO TO THE RANKINGS ?

Anderson will already rise from 32 up to 15 as a result of his run to the final - but if he can pull off a major shock tonight he 'll wake up on Monday at No.10 . 21.10 This is definitely worth a listen ! 21.08 21.05 Earlier in the tournament , Eurosport 's Dan Quarrell got up close and personal with Nadal 's racket stringer . It 's fair to say @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ far ! All the talk in the top half of the draw was regarding a potential semi final clash between Nadal and Federer , but the latter came unstuck against 2009 winner Juan Martin Del Potro . The Argentine 's fairytale run had already seen him snatch victory from the jaws of defeat against Dominic Thiem , but he could n't repeat the heroics versus an inspired Nadal in the last four . Anderson has reached this showpiece occasion after taking advantage of a weakened bottom half draw . Andy Murray withdrew through injury at the 11th hour while the likes of Alexander Zverev , Grigor Dimitrov and Marin Cilic all fell early in the tournament to provide a number of unlikely hopefuls a huge opportunity . Big Kev was the one to seize it with last hurdle now just minutes away .... Anderson on Nadal : " Nadal is one of the greatest competitors in sports , period . He 's an amazing fighter . He really controls the court well , the few times I have played him . I really need to be dominant @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you let him do it , it 's very difficult . " 20.45 Key to Anderson 's hopes will be his serve . He 's thundered a tournament-leading 114 aces so far and if he finds his rhythm from the off he could make life very difficult for Nadal . Perhaps more surprisingly , Ando has nailed 250 forehand winners . That 's 49 more than Rafa 's trademark weapon . CONTRAST : This is the 23rd major final for Nadal , and his third of 2017 . But it 's very much a new experience for Anderson . Indeed , he 's won just three career titles compared to Nadal 's 73 , and they have all come in the ATP World Tour 250 series . This really is the biggest moment in the South African 's career . 20.35 HEAD-TO-HEAD : Nadal has won all four of their previous meetings , including a 6-3 6-4 triumph earlier this year at the Barcelona Open . The Spaniard has only dropped one set across the four matches - but the last time the King of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ record against in a major final , he lost . That was back in the 2014 Australian Open final when an injured Nadal succumbed to Stan Wawrinka . 20.30 Nadal on Anderson : " I 'm happy for him because I know him since we were 12 . It 's great to see him in a final of one of the most important events of the year . " 20.25 Hello and welcome to game-by-game coverage of the 2017 men 's US Open final . It 's world number one , Rafael Nadal against South Africa 's Kevin Anderson in a showdown few would have predicted a fortnight ago . The giant No.28 seed is appearing in his maiden major final at the age of 31 , while Nadal bids for a 16th Grand Slam title to cap a scintillating return to form over the past nine months . The players are due on court just after 9pm UK time - all the build up next ... |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'ruled out of' in a different context, where 'winning the Premier League' is the goal or outcome, not a VP2[-ing] predicate indicating movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The sentence lacks a clear causer and causee relationship as required by the construction.

Last Updated : 13/09/17 8:55am Hector Bellerin says Arsenal have the right characters to produce strong displays , ahead of their Super Sunday clash at Chelsea Hector Bellerin insists Arsenal should not be ruled out of winning the Premier League despite enduring a difficult start to the season . Arsenal have started their 2017/18 Premier League campaign in mixed form , having won their opening league fixture 4-3 against Leicester before an away defeat to Stoke was followed by a heavy 5-0 loss to title rivals Liverpool on Nissan Super Sunday . Speaking ahead of Arsenal 's Super Sunday clash against Premier League champions Chelsea , Bellerin believes their current form can be compared to their opponents ' start last season and that the Gunners should n't be considered out of the title race . The Spain international exclusively told Sky Sports : " The season before was not a good one for them Chelsea . Bellerin believes Arsenal should not be written off after four Premier League matches " There @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ manager . Nobody knew what was going to happen . Then , after a poor start , they won 13 games in a row which is something to admire . It 's not about how you start but how consistent you are and how you finish it . " That 's why Chelsea won the league . There are so many games to play . It 's only been four games now and six points can be very valuable . Whoever is ruling us out already does n't know about football . " Watch highlights of Arsenal 's 3-0 home win over Bournemouth last weekend Arsenal make their Europa League debut against Cologne on Thursday night and even though the tournament makes for greater fixture congestion , Bellerin believes Arsenal have the strength in depth to compete on both fronts . " Teams like Leicester and Chelsea , they did n't have any midweek games when they won the Premier League so obviously players will get more rest and just play at the weekend . " For us , we are lucky to have good @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ face both competitions with the right team and still have the right amount of quality players on the pitch . " As a top club , you are expected to play two-three times a week so we have to be able to cope with that . " |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('Geoff Cameron' + 'is not completely ruling' + 'himself' + 'out of passing a fitness test'). It involves a reflexive NP object 'himself' coreferential with the subject 'Geoff Cameron', which is an atypical but acceptable type of NP object in the transitive out of -ing construction. The interpretation here is a prevention interpretation, where the subject is preventing himself from passing a fitness test.

Pep Guardiola may have claimed Kevin De Bruyne is one of the best players he has ever seen but the Manchester City midfielder believes it is the manager 's way of ensuring his standards never slip . De Bruyne choreographed City 's 4-0 demolition of Feyenoord in their opening Champions League group game on Wednesday to maintain his impressive start to the season and throw down a marker in the competition . Fellow playmaker Bernardo Silva joined Guardiola in singing De Bruyne 's praises by claiming the Belgian is so intelligent on the field he makes everyone else 's jobs easier . But De Bruyne believes Guardiola 's lofty assessment also raises expectations and increases the pressure on him to perform at a consistently high level . " It makes me happy ( to hear that ) but the other way is it is also a way of putting pressure on me to do well , " he said . " I have tried to be more consistent since I came here and have had ups and downs but last year and the start this year has been constantly very good for me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the team . I feel really good after a good preparation - physically and mentally I 'm ready to play and get a lot of confidence from the manager and the teammates around me . " I 've been here more than two years so I feel at home with this team now . It 's a good period for me . " De Bruyne is being deployed in a deeper midfield role this season , one he has played for Belgium , and is being asked to dictate City 's tempo by Guardiola . He did that to dizzying effect in Rotterdam and admits he gets as much pleasure out of creating goals as scoring them . " I get more more joy from an assist sometimes , just in the way I feel , " he said . " It 's nice to score a goal but I do n't get in that type of position too many times , as I did in the first year , but it does n't matter . I am enjoying my football and the goals will come . As @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ De Bruyne has been deployed in a deeper role this seasonCredit : AFP " It ( the deeper role ) is good . The guys who come in are so talented one against one with their speed , and ability to dribble , and I 'm more of a passing player . I have learned so much from David ( Silva ) and Fernandinho in the middle , and from Yaya ( Toure ) . I am getting better in that way . " I have always said that the longer I play in my career , I will play deeper , because of the attributes I have in contrast to the more wing-attack players . " Feyenoord marked only the second start for Bernardo since his ? 44 million move from Monaco and he the Portuguese is relishing playing with De Bruyne and believes the young age profile in the side means there is significant room for growth . " His decisions are always good and he is very intelligent on the pitch , " Bernardo said . " Intelligent players can play different roles @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ asks him to play on the right side , the left side , as an offensive midfielder , a more defensive midfielder , to cause attacks , to finish . It is a pleasure to have him with us . " Young players are hungry for titles , we have never won the Champions League and most of the players in this squad have never won the Premier League so we want to win big things and together we hope we can get them .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'making a career out of encouraging children to question gender' involves an NP object ('a career') that does not function as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

THE parents at the centre of the transgender pupils controversy feel they have been victimised for daring to speak out . Nigel and Sally Rowe have received hate mail since going public with their concerns . Solent News Nigel and Sally Rowe are at the centre of the transgender pupils controversy But in an exclusive interview with The Sun , the Rowes , who are suing the school involved , are determined to expose what they believe is an " ideology of transgenderism " being imposed by stealth in Britain 's schools with the help of Government and taxpayers ' money . Nigel , 44 , who owns a plumbing firm on the Isle of Wight , said : " We 've done this now because there are many parents who are concerned about this , and people are too afraid to speak out . " It 's not my business to impose my values or my morals on other people . " Everyone should be able to live their lives as they wish . " Until now , we 've just had boys and girls .

" There 's a social agenda with this pushing of transgenderism among young children in schools . Why are they doing this ? Getty - Contributor It started in 2015 when a boy in the same class as their eldest child was allowed to come dressed to school as a girl and have a female name " It feels like they 're trying to create a new social construct . " The Rowes , who have two boys aged eight and six , are not the only ones to express their concerns . Chris McGovern , chairman of the Campaign for Real Education , has warned transgenderism has become " an industry " . He said : " People are making a career out of encouraging children to question gender at an age when they need to be left to be children . " Rex Features The parents were interviewed on This Morning and said as Christians they feel that other peoples views @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ devoutly Christian family began in 2015 when a boy in the same class as their eldest child was allowed to go to the Church of England school -- which can not be named for legal reasons -- dressed as a girl and to assume a female name . Sally said : " What shocked me was that it happened very abruptly and without any consultation . " Her husband added : " We went to see the head straight away . She knew we would have a problem with it because we did the school assembly every week as committed Christians . " Yet they decided not to make an issue of it . The parents of the transitioning child , however , gave an interview explaining that a Louis Theroux documentary on BBC2 helped convince them that their son 's desire to assume a different gender was genuine , even though he was only six . BBC/Freddie Claire Parents of a transitioning child said a Louis Theroux documentary helped their child understand that their desire to assume a different gender was genuine They @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ since retired , about their child 's decision long before it was announced . According to the Rowes , the school then took advice from the Tavistock Clinic -- Britain 's only NHS unit specialising in child gender issues -- and Mermaids , a charity which lobbies on transgender issues . The transgender child 's parents , who we have agreed not to name , would not speak to us this week . Some teachers at the school were later trained in how to deal with a child changing gender by the charity . Solent News The Rowes said that their eldest son became depressed and anxious and believe that the classmate changing gender had something to do with it The Rowes said their eldest subsequently became depressed and anxious . They think it is possible his classmate changing gender had something to do with his low mood . With his agreement , they removed him from the school in the summer of 2016 , when he was seven . Their second son started at the first school in September 2016 . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in his class who alternated between wearing male and female clothes . Nigel said : " When I put our younger son to bed , he said ' Daddy , I 'm confused . A boy at school is coming in dressed as a girl . He comes in sometimes as a boy and sometimes as a girl ' ' He could n't quite figure it out . " BBC Chris McGovern , the chairman of the Campaign for Real Education has warned that transgenderism has become ' an industry ' Surprised that a second transgender child had arrived in the school , and worried about their younger son 's concerns , the Rowes met with a teacher and the school 's newly appointed head . Sally explained : " The head said , ' The child decides . If the child wants to come in one day as this , one day as that , we have to do that ' . " She actually said to us , ' If I do n't do it , I could lose my job ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ implement , she said she had no choice . " The Sun can reveal the mother of the second transgender child is a long-standing friend of the parents of the first transgender child . Another mum at the school explained : " She 's a single parent who moved to the Isle of Wight from London . Solent News The parents are suing the school because they believe that their children 's school has misinterpreted the Equality Act 2010 " There are suspicions that the older transgender child 's family may have helped with this move , perhaps because their own child had been accepted . " Whatever was behind the second transgender child 's arrival , when the Rowes ' younger son said he wanted to leave the school this summer , his parents agreed . A five-page letter written to them by the school in July helped make up their minds . It states the school is " legally bound to respect the wishes of the transgender pupil and parents involved " and to adhere to the Equality Act 2010 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the transgender charity Mermaids , told The Sun that the Department of Education has committed ? 150,000 to tackle the issue of children being referred to gender identity clinics It also gives examples of allegedly " transphobic behaviour " . In other words , for failing to accept that a boy of six must now be treated in all respects as a girl means the Rowes are guilty of transphobia and in breach of the law -- according to the letter they were sent . The Rowes argue this is a misapplication of the law on the part of the school . They say gender recognition law does not deal with young people under the age of 18 -- so their challenge in law is potentially crucial in redefining the legal landscape . The Rowes said that they felt they had no option but to remove their sons . Solent News After the parents were not able to mediate the issue with the school they felt they had no other choice but to remove their sons Now the brothers are being home-schooled by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ She says they are " very happy " . According to figures published in July , the number of children referred to gender identity clinics in Britain has quadrupled in the past five years . Some healthcare professionals also believe the increase is due to the state 's promotion of transgenderism in schools . Susie Green , CEO of the transgender charity Mermaids , told us the Department for Education has committed to spending ? 150,000 to tackling the issue . Rex Features Sally says that they have received support from other parents calling them brave This money is available to the LGBT Consortium , a 12-strong collective of transgender groups who visit schools and other publicly-funded organisations to teach , train and advise . Dr Bernadette Wren , a consultant clinical psychologist from the Tavistock Clinic , said : " We are still trying to understand its rise . I do n't think anybody is entitled to say they know . " We still think at six to eight years old it is perfectly reasonable to have a period of quietly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ way to confirming a child in their preferred gender . " The Rowes are at pains to make it clear that they are not motivated by hate . THE Equality Act 2010 -- which applies to schools as well as other workplaces -- bans discrimination , harassment or victimisation against another person on the grounds of a variety of " protected characteristics " , which includes gender reassignment . Discrimination means treating one person worse than another because of a protected characteristic , or simply doing things in a way that has a worse impact on someone because of their characteristic . Failure to comply with the law could lead to being sued . Sally explained : " We brought our children up to be loving and caring . And when our son had his sixth birthday party , he said he wanted this other child to come , and he came in a dress . " Over the summer they contacted pressure group Christian Concern , which campaigns to uphold traditional Christian values in Britain , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Their legal challenge against the school , which centres on whether it has interpreted the 2010 Equality Act correctly , is being funded by this organisation .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a capacity to achieve something (a goal) out of nothing, which does not involve a causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate. Therefore, it does not qualify as an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The Spanish No9 's instant integration into Chelsea 's forward line only adds to the sense that Ars ? ne Wenger 's Arsenal are a club locked in perpetual transition ? lvaro Morata has started the season well for Chelsea , meanwhile Arsenal 's Alexandre Lacazette has not had the start that he would have wished for . Composite : Julian Finney/Getty Images ; PPAUK/Rex/Shutterstock In football , there are perhaps two types of crisis . There is the Arsenal type that festers for years until after a decade of stagnation and low-level grumbling you suddenly find all your best players are out of contract and you are battling Everton for sixth place . And there is the Chelsea type that bubbles up from nowhere , threatens to derail everything , and then blows itself out just as suddenly as it arrived . Whatever was going on at Stamford Bridge in August essentially ceased to affect performances on the pitch as soon as Antonio Conte put on a suit again ; the semiotics of a Chelsea manager 's dress sense @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ looks a little slender to compete in both Premier League and Champions League , which may lead to problems later in the season , but for now Chelsea look set fair , particularly given Eden Hazard 's return from an ankle injury . Much was made last season of the efficacy of their back three , but at least as important as what it meant in defensive terms was the platform it provided for their forward line . It is easy , in these days of endless glitzy transfers , to be seduced by the personalities in a forward line : Mbapp ? , Cavani and Neymar ; Su ? rez , Messi and Demb ? l ? ; Ronaldo , Benzema and Bale ; Salah , Firmino and Man ? . What marks out the best sides , though , is the way their stellar names are integrated into the team . No matter how stellar the names , if there is no cohesion between the front three and the other seven , the whole will collapse like a badly constructed cottage loaf . It 's that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ difference between Chelsea and Arsenal , who meet on Sunday at Stamford Bridge for the first time this season . Whether , in an abstract sense , Pedro Rodr ? guez , ? lvaro Morata and Hazard represent a better trio than Alexis S ? nchez , Alexandre Lacazette and Mesut ? zil ( not that the three have yet played together , but sub in Danny Welbeck where appropriate ) is debatable , but what is clear is that Chelsea are more effective as a unit . That remains true even with the continued absence of Diego Costa . After his awkward debut in the Community Shield , Morata has settled quickly with three goals and two assists , all of them headed , in just 278 minutes of play in the Premier League . There are countless examples of players who have arrived from less physical leagues with a reputation for aerial power and found that the gifts that had previously made them dominant render them nothing more than average in England -- Mauro Boselli , Denis Stracqualursi , Fernando Morientes ; even Didier Drogba took a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ unfazed . There have been times , it 's true , when he has looked a little uncomfortable operating with his back to goal , and it may be that his aerial strength is more in converting crosses than in holding the ball up but so far he has won 1.9 aerial duels out of 4.2 attempted per 90 minutes played . It is a small sample size , admittedly , but that compares favourably with his predecessor in the centre-forward role , Costa , who over last season won 1.3 out of 4.5 aerial duels attempted . ? lvaro Morata has scored three goals and two assists , all of them headed , in just 278 minutes of football for Chelsea . Photograph : Will Oliver/EPA Morata , in fact , generally matches up pretty well against Costa . The only metric in which the former Atl ? tico striker notably outshines the new man is that of being fouled : defenders , for some reason , were around four and a half times more likely to kick Costa than they are Morata . Those @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Belgian was by some way Chelsea 's most dangerous creator last season -- 16 goals and five assists -- there is every reason to suppose Morata will become even more dangerous now Hazard is back . Morata perhaps lacks the mongrel of Costa , the capacity to niggle a goal out of nothing , but it may be that his interplay is even more effective . The benefit of the 3-4-2-1 system is the freedom it allows the two inside-forwards , the fact they can play wide or central or somewhere in between , a liberation on which both Hazard and Pedro have thrived . The former Barcelona forward arrived at Chelsea in 2015 in the midst of Mourinho 's meltdown and at first was rather overshadowed by Willian , whose consistency and robustness seemed more appropriate to the situation at hand . The Brazilian only fell out of the side when he returned home as a result of a family bereavement last October , but so effective has Pedro been since that he seems the natural first choice . Last season brought nine Premier League goals and nine @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the 3-4-2-1 is so good at exposing . It is that flexibility that makes those players so hard to pick up as they drift into the crannies between the holding midfielders and the full-backs , something that challenges even a well-drilled side with an imposing presence in that area . Arsenal , it goes without saying , are not such a side . Yet it is not just the perennial post-Patrick Vieira , post-Gilberto Silva hole that should be of concern . Is there any sense of how Lacazette fits in to the forward line ? The idea of him operating centrally while S ? nchez buzzes off him and ? zil slides through-balls to a pair of rapid team-mates is admittedly beguiling . S ? nchez did much to quell doubts about his commitment having failed to force a move to Manchester City with his performance against Cologne on Thursday , when his legs moved in a familiar blur and he put Arsenal ahead with a clinical shimmer from the left and precisely arced shot . Two questions , though , immediately rear up . First @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the front , an area in which Chelsea excel ? And second , given S ? nchez and ? zil are out of contract at the end of the season , is there any real point investing the time and effort required to develop the mutual understanding that great forward lines require ? Arsenal , as they have done for a decade , seem locked in perpetual transition , always waiting -- waiting for the stadium debt to be paid off , waiting for the young talents to mature , waiting for Ars ? ne Wenger to sign a new contract , waiting to find out what happens to S ? nchez and ? zil . Procrastination has become a way of life at the Emirates , tomorrow 's jam forever tantalisingly out of reach . As ever with Arsenal these days , a sense of woolliness undermines them . The theory looks good but in practice it all seems terribly vague . Chelsea , by contrast , once the grumbles about transfers blew by , have looked just as sharp and focused as they did last season @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ crises are often largely a matter of leadership . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes a situation where the younger generation is priced out of buying a home, which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move or preventing them from doing something. The phrase 'priced out of buying a home' is more about economic conditions preventing an action rather than a specific agent causing or preventing an action through means described in the construction's properties.

Anya Hindmarch has attracted customers with her witty spirit and the fact that customers can buy attachments to personalise their bags .

But the real story here is that creators of imaginative handbags get much more traction during the Fashion Week seasons than accessory houses . After all , look at the history of Gucci and Prada ! Anya Hindmarch has attracted customers with her witty spirit and the fact that customers can buy attachments to personalise their bags .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks an NP object and a VP2[-ing] predicate that would induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'come back out of hiding' which does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction.

Carlisle Utd 1 Barnet 1 : It was a wonderful goal - and maybe also a hint at the ability that many feel remains within this Carlisle squad , yet has been locked away over a few trying weeks . One touch , to set it up , and then another , to sweep the ball over the Barnet goalkeeper : that description barely does justice to Shaun Miller 's overhead volley , which was worthy of winning several games , never mind drawing this one . From the moment Shamal George aimed the ball forward from a handful of yards outside Carlisle 's own penalty area , the ball did n't touch the turf until after it had smacked into Craig Ross ' net . It was United 's first goal in three league games ; it may not be bettered in eight more months . Nor was it an 18th-in-League-Two sort of goal . It deserved higher billing . This , then , is the challenge facing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ form , and consistency , so that moments like that can grace a more suitable stage . If Miller is capable of that , and certain others can also produce the quality their careers suggest , the Blues should not be toiling to get away from the wrong end of the fourth tier . All journeys , though , must begin with a single step . United had stumbled into great difficulty with some disturbing defeats to Lincoln , Accrington and Coventry and for periods on Saturday it seemed the tension of that run might beat them again . The first half , in particular , was a grind . Later , though , enlivened by substitutions , they gained a reward for persistence . A couple of moments of fine Ross goalkeeping - how many times has that sentence been written at Brunton Park ? - then denied them an even better outcome in injury-time . It can not mean that all their problems are solved . At least , though , another defeat did n't bring more to their doors . There was immense relief @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Road End goalposts and roared to all sides of Brunton Park , and that feeling must translate into a more confident showing when United go to Crewe next weekend .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not give rise to either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'making money out of leaving' does not involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it involve a causer performing an action to achieve a goal through specific means.

Who the hell does Amber Rudd think she is ? OK , so it 's her turn to be Home Secretary this week but , be honest , we 're not talking political colossus here . She seems to owe her elevated position to a willingness to stick her head above the parapet when Mother Theresa is doing her celebrated hiding-behind-the-sofa trick . From what I can gather , Rudd 's main job is to slag off Boris Johnson at every available opportunity . She was at it again over the weekend after Boris finally vented his frustration with the dog 's breakfast the Government is making of Brexit . Look Back In Amber was brimming with indignation over his long-overdue intervention , accusing him of behaving like a ' back-seat driver ' . She 's obviously got a thing about Boris and cars , having previously accused him of not being the kind of chap a lady would want to drive her home . Admittedly , Bozza has a bit of a reputation for not being safe in taxis , but I ca n't help suspecting that some of Rudd 's resentment of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's never made a libidinous lunge in her direction . It ca n't do much for any girl 's self-esteem to discover that she 's about the only female with a pulse in the Conservative Party who has n't been subject to the swashbuckling swordsman 's attentions . After all , when it comes to inviting crumpet to accompany him on a state visit to the Republic of Legovia , Boris manages to make even the late Alan Clark MP look fussy . In political terms , Rudd is a dowdy downstairs scullery maid by comparison with Johnson 's rakish Lord of the Manor , ravishing the maidens of the village and leaving them gasping for more . Certainly , in the essential task of enthusing the masses , Boris has an unrivalled ability to find the Tory Party 's erogenous zones . As Foreign Secretary , Boris should be deeply involved in negotiating our escape from a foreign power like the EU , says Richard Littlejohn An Amber Rudd speech , in contrast , is like a night out with an I-Speak-Your-Weight machine . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ leading lights wheeled out by Project Fear . No one took the slightest notice of her dire predictions of impending doom . When Theresa May declined to take part in televised election debates , Rudd was dispatched in her stead . We all know how that turned out . She only managed to hold on to her own seat by the lacquer on her fingernails , scraping home by 346 votes in a Hastings constituency which should be fertile Conservative territory . So you might have thought Rudd would be both relieved and grateful that she not only survived May 's self-inflicted General Election car crash , but also clung onto her job as Home Secretary -- a great office of state well beyond her limited abilities . Where on earth does she get the impertinence to believe that she has a divine right to put Boris back in his box ? ' I do n't want him managing the Brexit process , ' she declares . What 's that supposed to mean ? And what has it got to do with her ? If anyone @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's Boris , who risked all to lead the Leave campaign . I 'd also argue that he should have been allowed to offer himself to the party 's membership as a successor to Call Me Dave . Having spearheaded the winning Leave campaign , Boris is entitled to lay out his vision for a successful Brexit . All those of us who voted to quit the EU are frustrated at the glacial pace of our departure and the constant efforts by embittered Remainers to sabotage the whole process . He 's the Foreign Secretary , for heaven 's sake . He should be deeply involved in negotiating our escape from a foreign power like the EU . Amber Rudd should n't be anywhere near the Brexit decision-making process , particularly as her brother , Roland Rat , is a PR spiv who earns a small fortune out of businesses backing Remain , and was up to his neck in Project Fear . ( Can you imagine the howls of outrage and conflict of interest if Boris had a close relative making money out of leaving @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be permitted to influence the Brexit negotiations , especially the terminally arrogant Philip Hammond , a pompous , intergalactic bore . David Davis is doing his best , but the Prime Minister has been dragging her feet . We 're told she 's going to make a Brexit speech on Friday , but it 's action that 's needed , not more words . There 's no point in petty squabbling about whether we 're getting back ? 350 million a week from the EU , or simply hanging on to money which is rightfully ours . This is an angels-dancing-on- pinheads diversion . We must concentrate on the bigger picture . I 've just been re-reading a column I wrote almost exactly a year ago today . Much of it bears repeating . ' In case you have forgotten , the question on the ballot paper said this : Should the United Kingdom remain a member of the European Union or leave the European Union ? ' Not much ambiguity there . It did n't contain any caveats , such as : " Should we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like Norway , which involves paying money to the EU and accepting most of its laws ? " ' Here 's the deal : we 're off . No ifs , no buts . If EU politicians and industrialists want to do a post-Brexit deal with us , they know where we are . We do n't have to grovel . We 've got a winning hand . ' Where is it written that we can only leave if we agree to the EU 's terms ? Nowhere . The Europeans have got more to lose than we have . . . ' Precisely . Boris said pretty much the same thing in his 4,000-word article published at the weekend . Unlike Amber Rudd -- and Theresa May , come to that -- he has proved that he 's a winner and can command a thumping personal mandate , first as the London Mayor who saved us from Red Ken , and then as the knight in shining armour who defied the defeatists and convinced 17.4 million people that we have a glowing future as a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and politicians are now demanding that May sacks Boris for disloyalty -- in other words , for speaking up for the wishes of the majority of the British people as expressed at the ballot box in unprecedented numbers . If Mother Theresa feels the urge to sack anyone , she should start with the dismal , anti-democratic Amber Rudd .

It was a fascinating end to a season that struggled to catch fire at times . The Kerry and Mayo semi-finals were interesting , but , truth be told , Mayo 's run this season was sensational and kept us all on the edge of our seats . It 's hard to come up with a best 15 at the end of it all but here are my thoughts . Some players might be slightly out of position but I wanted to get my best team on the field . A look back to all the reaction from the All-Ireland football final between Dublin and Mayo at Croke Park . Stephen Cluxton Little doubt here . Record breaker . Leader . Captain . And I would say there is plenty more in him yet . Cluxton may have struggled with his kick-outs against Mayo but he was composed as the game went on and his shot stopping was sensational again . Keith Higgins Keith has consistently been one of the top performers in the game over the last number of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have epitomised this Mayo side over the seasons . Johnny Cooper In his interview after the All-Ireland final Johnny Cooper warned that Dublin were not finished yet . And Cooper is one of the reasons why they are not finished . Tenacious , attacking , and confident of his own ability in the air , he is one of the mainstays of the Dublin team . Chris Barrett Chris has been one of the unsung Mayo heroes but his All-Ireland final display catapulted him to a different level . Rock solid at the back , his tackling , blocking and turnovers were a textbook template for any youngster willing to learn the game . Jack McCaffrey It was such a pity that Jack had to go off so early in the final but his loss showed exactly what Dublin were missing . Until James McCarthy drove forward late in the game , Dublin missed those attacking runs from deep . A class act , Dublin always look likely to score more goals when he is there . Colm Boyle The man was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be limping as he made his way off . He was sensational for most of the season , a real bull in the heart of the Mayo defence and a player I have great time for . No nonsense , he is one of the most exciting players around . Highlights of the All-Ireland football final between Dublin and Mayo at Croke Park . Lee Keegan So too is Lee Keegan who had another big game on the big day with a scorching goal and a great job done on Ciaran Kilkenny . Lee is a versatile player and he showed that more than ever this year . He saved the team 's bacon against Roscommon and he had another brilliant year . James McCarthy James was one of those in contention for man of the match on All-Ireland final day and he weighed in with some crucial scores when it looked like Mayo could stretch ahead . He is not afraid of the physical battles but he looks so comfortable soloing forward and shooting on goal . Colm Cavanagh I know @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ end . He did all he could to drag his team back into that game and he was their best player this year in many ways . Edges out Tom Parsons for this second midfield spot . Con O'Callaghan What a year for Con . All-Ireland titles at club hurling , under 21 football and senior football level . He will find it hard to every see a year as successful again . Two great goals in both the All-Ireland semi-final and final reminded us of the class he possesses . Aidan O'Shea His finest year in the Mayo shirt ? Certainly right up there . Dominated the early stages of the All-Ireland final and was a colossus all the way through the game . Starred in several different roles this season . The winning goal from the All-Ireland football final Paul Mannion Paul is an out and out finisher and from the start of the Leinster Championship he has been in clinical form . He is economical and clever in possession and he is not afraid to track back and graft either @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on Dean now and not just for his free-taking . His work rate and mobility have improved and so too has his accuracy from the placed ball . That is down to the huge effort he makes off the field in his preparation . Paul Geaney Is there a more exciting full forward out there ? Paul was clinical in Munster and he always looked lethal when he got on the ball in 2017 . Can make scores out of nothing and is a joy to watch . Andy Moran Andy is up there for Player of the Year , no doubt about that . It was his best year in a distinguished innings in the green and red shirt . Clever , sharp , good off both feet , he never stopped making runs for his teammates and that work rate ensured he enjoyed a prolific year . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves an intransitive verb 'comes' with no NP object, and the phrase 'out of witnessing so many fans' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

It may have been post-Labor Day , but the sun and heat were in full swing for High & Low Fest 's inaugural showcase . The one-day festival was held at the NOS Event Center in wonderful San Bernandino , California . For those unfamiliar with the location , it 's roughly halfway between Orange County 's beaches and the grand pools of Palm Springs . But , while the heat and humidity hung in the air , plenty of food and beverage stations made sure everyone was well prepared to battle the late-summer heat . The festival consisted of both music performances and stand-up comedy . Due to time constraints , my focus was solely on the music . And let me tell you folks , I 'm still reminiscing . Kevin Devine kicked things off outside . And you ca n't call him , his band , and that early crowd anything but troopers . The sun was out for a direct hit . If it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was too busy shredding through the sweat to pay it any bother . And his fans reciprocated by dancing and singing to songs , water bottles of course in-tow . There 's an almost innocent joy that comes out of witnessing so many fans for the early bands ; whether it 's die-hards who know every lyric or newbies who are just excited to hear some new live music . That same magic could be found during wunderkinds ( Sandy ) Alex G 's set . They were on the indoor stage , which lent nicely to the psychedelic vibes and angsty-basement-set esthetic . While the up and coming class were setting new standards , enough still ca n't be said about veterans like Andrew McMahon . This is a performer who knows exactly what the fans want . His sets are curated and artfully crafted to not only include the fans in the show theatrically but including fans of all iterations of his musical projects , past and present . His current lineup as Andrew McMahon In the Wilderness have the precision and grace every band aspires @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all over his piano and crowd surf on an inflatable rubber ducky , all while he easily belts out those high notes , full diaphragm control . The same can be said for Best Coast . While the surf rockers have maintained their indie status , their fan base is loyal to a " T " . Bethany Cosentino knows not only what her fans want , but how they want it . When it came to the end of their set , Bethany announced they had three songs left . After a slight pause due to backstage murmuring , she then announced they actually only had one song left . She playfully asked the crowd what song they thought it would be . " BOYFRIEND , " the crowd erupted . They were correct . At some point in time , the indoor stage fell behind schedule . But that did n't stop the bands form powering through solid sets . Cloud Nothings brought out the noise and propulsive post-emo thrash . Maybe it was because of scheduling or maybe it was a way to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the songs were played at a faster tempo than their recorded versions . This is n't a criticism , just an observation as I rarely consciously notice tempo changes like that on already bounding compositions . But as free-wheeling as their set was , those drums were on fucking point . Outdoors , Tegan and Sara kicked off the nighttime festivities . The genuine love they have for their fans translates into a glittering , inclusive house party that relies on the back-and-forth dynamic between performer and attendee . This does n't come from a polite humbleness . It 's rooted in a true appreciation that others can connect through their music and want to be a part of the sister 's story . PUP have a similar effect on their fans . While during the performance , there was less speaking to the crowd , the music was the only conversation needed . From the first guitar stroke , fans were jumping , moshing , and screaming along to every biting lyric . A lesser band would n't have the musicianship to pull off a set that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ applied to embolden each song . The cr ? me de la cr ? me was , of course , Brand New . They are the patron saints of every angst-ridden , existential-dread-having human who also has an unshakeable belief in love . They are legends who have returned for another bout . The band opened with Science Fiction 's first track ' Lit Me Up ' and delved into a catalogue spanning set . No matter how recent the song , it felt like everyone around knew every word , every subtle nuance of the melody . Brand New 's importance spans beyond being fans of the music . The art is appreciated by music listeners and critics the world over .

POET Tony Walsh found global fame when the world 's cameras turned on Manchester after the arena terror attack . It 's a tragic irony that is not lost on a writer who has been plying his literary trade for the past seven years . " I have very mixed emotions . It 's a responsibility , " he says . " I 'm doing all I can to use the poem to make as much money for charity as I can . " He wrote This Is The Place back in 2013 . The day after the blast he was working in a school when he received a phone call from the charity Forever Manchester to ask him to read the poem aloud at the vigil for the 22 victims of bomber Salman Abedi . Instantly he was caught in the " white heat " of a global media storm as the Albert Square recital was shown live around the world . Tony said : " When I came offstage I was trending fourth in the world on Twitter . My social media went into meltdown for days . The whole world @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " It was very stressful . As an artist it 's all about connection and you want to connect with people . A few months later it 's connected very broadly and very deeply , which is a privilege but a real pressure and to have come out of something so terrible is a real responsibility . " The poem , a love song to the people of Manchester , captured the mood of poignance and defiance that swept the city back in May . It has been transformed into a painting and a dance mix and now the Manchester design community has come together to produce a coffee table hardback book . They include Peter Savile who designed Joy Division New Order record sleeves . All the contributors have worked for free and is intended to raise a six-figure sum for Love Manchester , Andy Burnham 's homeless charity and Forever Manchester . " That 's all I can do , " Tony said , " And then get on with doing what I was doing before . " He admits that " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the spotlight , because it 's not easy making a living as a full-time poet . Known for his height , his professional moniker is Longfella and his work takes him into schools , colleges , prisons and charities . " You have to be flexible , you have to work hard .

" I speak to the people and try to get inside what they 're all about and try to communicate their passions . I do it for companies and for charities and for causes and events . " Tony , now 52 , started writing poetry when he was six years old . " My nana used to write them up in a pad . Then was I was seven or eight I would write them up myself .

More than 600 doctors are in revolt over moves by one of the country 's top medical colleges to back abortion on demand . The Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists ( RCOG ) will today hold a secret vote to relax the laws governing the procedure . Their president , Professor Lesley Regan , believes terminations should be treated the same as any other medical procedure . But although the RCOG represents 6,000 senior doctors in England specialising in childbirth and women 's health , only 33 members of the body 's council will take part in the behind-closed-doors ballot . A group of 650 doctors have now signed a letter to Professor Regan objecting to her ' extreme ' views . The practitioners -- including those who do not belong to the RCOG -- say it is ' completely unacceptable ' that the majority of members are being denied the chance to vote . They also warn that the college risks ' severely damaging its reputation ' by adopting such a radical stance . If the council members vote in favour , the RCOG will formally back decriminalising abortions and lobby the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will join two powerful medical bodies which have already come out in favour -- the British Medical Association and the Royal College of Midwives . The Daily Mail has seen extracts from today 's letter , which has been sent to Professor Regan at the RCOG . Between 30 and 40 doctors who have signed it are members of the college , the remainder specialise in other fields of medicine . Last week Professor Regan said that women seeking abortions should only have to obtain consent from one doctor , just as if they were having a bunion removed . Dr Ronald Jameson , a member of the RCOG from Huddersfield , said a new policy on terminations would ' almost certainly bring abortion much closer to being a free for all ' . He added : ' I firmly believe that the RCOG should be able to vote , and only then will the membership be clear just what the doctors ' vote represents . ' Dr John Etherton , a GP and RCOG member from Lewes , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the gate for easy abortion up to birth ' . He added : ' It sounds very benign to say let 's decriminalise a procedure , it sounds acceptable , but the immediate implications are that it opens the gate for infanticide . That 's very clear . ' The RCOG has made it clear that the move would not allow abortions to be carried out any later than 24 weeks . The current law -- the 1967 Abortion Act -- states abortions are illegal without consent from two doctors . Both must agree that continuing the pregnancy would be harmful to the woman 's physical or mental health , or that of the unborn child . Britain 's 40-year-old abortion law requires two doctors to agree to a termination on ' medical grounds ' . Both must say the abortion is necessary to prevent ' grave , permanent ' physical or mental damage . But campaigners say the law is only being followed ' loosely ' by doctors . Women with no risk of physical harm can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is at risk . There is also evidence that doctors have been ' pre-signing ' blank abortion forms . The ballot will decide whether the College should formally back ' total decriminalisation ' allowing consent from just one professional . A vote in favour would put pressure on the Government to overhaul the law . The protest letter -- which will be delivered to the Royal College this morning -- urges Prof Regan to hold a ballot of all 6,000 members . It adds : ' If these measures were to be implemented , it would mean the introduction of abortion for any reason , to at least 28 weeks and possibly up to birth . ' It is completely unacceptable that all members of the RCOG have not been given the opportunity to vote on this significant change in policy and you have refused to release the wording of the motion until after the general council have voted on this motion . As doctors and medical students , we object to this new extreme position being forced upon members of the RCOG . ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ abortion , but believe this motion is out of keeping with both our duties as responsible professionals and the expressed wishes of British women with regards to the legality and regulation of abortion . This move to introduce a radical abortion law is being promoted by a small group of campaigners with extreme views on abortion . ' The letter continues : ' Whilst they are entitled to hold the convictions they do we must not let them impose their agenda on the RCOG and risk severely damaging its reputation as a professional body . ' We , the undersigned , wish to state publicly that any policy which seeks to remove abortion from its current legal framework does not represent us or our views . ' A spokesman for the RCOG said all 6,000 members had been consulted on today 's vote and told to share their views with their council representative . Latest official figures show that 190,406 abortions were carried out in England and Wales in 2016 , a slight fall on the previous year . But there has been a significant rise @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Last week Prof Regan said it would be ' perfectly reasonable ' for women to need one doctor 's consent to have an abortion . She compared the procedure to removing a bunion . ' If you go and get your bunions sorted ... you would go to a consultation ... then you take a decision and the doctor who was competent to undertake the procedure would sign the form too , and that would go forward , ' she said . Two of the country 's most powerful medical bodies have already come out in favour of changing the law on abortions . The British Medical Association -- which represents two-thirds of the UK 's 280,000 doctors -- voted in favour of legal reforms at its annual meeting in June . Dr John Chisholm , chairman of the BMA 's ethics committee , said terminations ' should be treated as a medical issue ' rather than a crime . Some 69 per cent of doctors who were present at the ballot voted in favour and just 29 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ May last year , the Royal College of Midwives announced it was in favour of decriminalisation even though chief executive Professor Cathy Warwick did not consult her 30,000 members beforehand . At the time she was also chairman of the country 's largest abortion provider , the British Pregnancy Advisory Service , although she has since stood down . Many midwives claimed there was a clear ' conflict of interest ' . Prof Regan also said there had been a ' shift ' in opinion among medical professionals about abortion , with many being in favour of decriminalisation . Dr Peter Saunders , of the Christian Medical Fellowship , which represents Christian doctors , said the RCOG had an interest in removing abortion from criminal law because so many of its members practised it . ' How is this different from bankers asking for fraud to be decriminalised , taxi drivers seeking an end to speed limits , or tenants aiming to abolish rental contracts ? ' he said . ' Surely it is those who most stand to gain by a change in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ framed . ' The vote is due to take place this afternoon but it may be pushed back until Saturday . The RCOG said it supports the rights of women to access ' safe , high-quality abortion care services ' . A spokesman said : ' The vote will not focus on gestational limits for abortion which should remain in place through the appropriate regulatory and legislative process . ' Whatever the outcome of the vote , the College will continue to support those doctors with strongly held beliefs who consciously object to performing terminations . ' By Max Pemberton Professor Lesley Regan is a highly regarded doctor Professor Lesley Regan is a highly regarded doctor , with more than 30 years of experience . She is also President of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists . Yet despite her expertise and esteemed position , I wonder if she has taken leave of her senses . She has just argued that having an abortion should be treated no differently to any other medical @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ But they are different , are n't they ? You do n't need to be a professor of obstetrics to know that a bunion is different to a foetus . The question of whether the foetus has rights and , if so , what those rights are and at what point they come into effect is incredibly complex and emotive . It is something philosophers , ethicists , doctors , lawyers , theologians and many of the general public have grappled with for years . There is no simple answer , and it is beholden on someone of Professor Regan 's great office to at least acknowledge this fact , regardless of her personal opinion . Let 's be clear here , her announcement is not to do with medicine . It 's a political statement -- an alignment with a particular liberal ideology that states that abortion should be available on demand , no questions asked . Current law states abortions are illegal without consent from two doctors . Yet there is a political movement that demands that all legal limitations on abortion are removed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Royal College of Midwives ' chief executive Cathy Warwick . But it has profound implications . It means that the UK would join a tiny handful of countries -- such as China and Vietnam -- where abortion is legal on demand up until birth . When it comes to human rights , I 'm never one to feel comfortable following China 's lead . Although Professor Regan has stated she thinks the abortion limit should remain , many argue that the decriminalising of abortion will mean current safeguards will disappear and late-stage abortions will inevitably become more common . This makes me feel profoundly uneasy . I am aware , of course , that if there is one topic in medicine guaranteed to generate controversy , it 's abortion . Its mere mention polarises opinion : for or against , pro-life or pro-choice . How has it come to this ? Let me say that I unreservedly support a woman 's right to terminate her pregnancy , and have no moral objection to abortion per se . I am aware that not everyone will agree with me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Indeed , while a medical student I assisted in terminations of pregnancy as part of my training . It was a carefully made and personal decision . While many of my fellow students decided against it , I thought that if I accept abortion should be permitted as a medical procedure , then I should know what it entails . My objections to Professor Regan 's statements are not because I am closed-minded about abortion . They stem from the fact that I feel the issue has been hijacked by a political movement founded on ideology and dogma . It is wholly disingenuous of Professor Regan to present the issue as simply a legal quirk from a bygone era that can be quickly sorted out with the swish of the legislative pen . Abortion for a great many people is a profound question and one that deserves our respect . To them , terminating a pregnancy can never be regarded in the same way as removing a piece of deformed bone , to use Professor Regan 's crass example . It is destroying a life . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , an abortion is not a procedure without risk . There is a range of possible complications , from infections through to life-endangering haemorrhage . Of course , most abortions are safe , but Professor Regan is making them appear quick , simple and harmless when they are not . And I fear that , by sending out this message , it will lead to people being more blas ? about contraception because they know that they can get a quick abortion if necessary . And as I said , I am also worried that if abortion is decriminalised , we could soon be seeing late-stage abortions on demand as the pro-choice lobby makes ever more strident demands . I am not alone in this . As the Mail reveals today , 650 doctors have signed a letter to Professor Regan to object to her moves to put the weight of the College where she is President behind the campaign to decriminalise abortion . They argue that not only is the campaign ' extreme ' but will lead to ' termination on demand ' up to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ me to what is surely a far more pressing issue than the decriminalisation of abortion , and one that the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists really should be focusing on . When today 's abortion laws were written , there was a safe margin between the upper limit for termination and the age at which babies survived . But over the years , as medicine has advanced , that margin has become smaller and smaller . We are now at the deeply unsettling stage where , in the same hospital , doctors are trying to save a premature baby born at , say 23 weeks , while a woman down the corridor is legally allowed to undergo an abortion on a foetus of the same gestation . So , on the one hand , we throw considerable money and resources at trying to save a baby 's life , while on the other sanctioning another 's destruction . The current legal limit for terminating a pregnancy is 24 weeks , although later abortions are allowed if there is grave risk to the woman 's life @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ majority of terminations occur at 13 weeks or before , with only a fraction -- less than 2 per cent -- occurring after 20 weeks . But , even so , this still accounts for about 3,000 terminations a year . The laws surrounding medicine must be dynamic : they must be able to change and adapt to advances made -- and there is a real argument for reducing the upper limit . What might have been appropriate in the past is no longer fit for purpose . Surely this is what Professor Regan and her College should be focusing on . Yet it seems she is concerned not on the foetus 's survival but the woman 's right to choose . One in three women in the UK will undergo a termination before the age of 45 , so this issue resonates with many people on a profound level . For feminists to politicise abortion in this way , and to insist that everything a woman wants she should get , regardless of the ethical issues , is nothing short of outrageous .

At first I thought you were harmless . A middle-aged restaurant manager who liked to hire young girls for something to leer at during a hectic dinner shift . Not planning to stay for long , I knew I could put up with the odd inappropriate comment . But when a busy summer turned into a slow autumn , with profits nose-diving , a rage and bitterness surfaced with a vengeance that none of us expected . You were perpetually angry , setting impossible targets and shouting when , of course , we failed to meet them . There was one particular day when we all felt the brunt of your mood swings . The restaurant was heaving , there was a queue snaking out the door , and we were running out of everything . We were clearly at capacity but you kept bringing in customers , barking at us to move tables on so that you could make more money . When one of the new girls made a mistake with an order , you screamed at her and roared to the assistant manager , " get her out of my face " . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Read more You spent the shift harassing the kitchen , goading the head chef until he threw his apron on the floor and stormed out .

You successfully reduced a quarter of your workforce to tears and fury in a matter of hours . How could you treat your staff like that ? Clearly that fat Christmas bonus was worth more to you than basic kindness . Your lack of humanity made me feel sick . Your poor behaviour continued . There was the time it emerged you 'd been sleeping with the assistant manager and your wife stormed into the restaurant screaming .

I would detail every single one of your cruelties to head office and watch as you faced the accusations . But you left before I could hand in my notice and I never had the satisfaction .

MORE children from Barrow are growing up in care than those in any other part of Cumbria , new information has revealed . A total of 162 youngsters from the town are living in placements found by Cumbria 's social services - 89 boys and 73 girls - with neglect proving the largest contributor to the high number of children being removed from their families . The number includes 11 babies and 16 children under the age of four , while a further 39 five to nine-year-olds from the borough are no longer living with a parent . But the age group with the largest number of children living as wards of the state are those aged ten and over - with 96 classed as ' looked after ' by Cumbria County Council . Cumbria 's children 's services boss and Hindpool representative , Councillor Anne Burns , said she was disappointed to see Barrow had the highest number of children in the care system despite ongoing work in the area to support families . " As quickly as we are putting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the number of children coming into care keeps going up . " Unfortunately , the biggest cause is neglect . " We are looking at this situation very closely to see how best we can tackle it .

" Cllr Burns added : " We want children to be able to stay at home , which is the best place for them . But they have a right to live in a safe , secure home and we are working very hard to make sure their families can provide this for them , with community support . " The information has been released ahead of a presentation to CCC councillors next week which will outline ongoing work to improve the authority 's children 's services department . There are now 629 children in care in Cumbria . While Barrow has the highest single number , Carlisle is second with 138 followed by Copeland with 131 . Allerdale has 129 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

To help reduce spiralling costs , bosses within CCC have been campaigning to recruit more local authority foster carers for some time . On Tuesday this week , the county council launched a recruitment drive for the South Lakeland area , speaking of an " urgent need " for more foster carers .

Alvaro Morata in training with his Chelsea teammates earlier this week Getty If Antonio Conte was unwilling to discuss Diego Costa and everything that was problematic with him off the pitch , even now that the striker 's Chelsea exit has been confirmed , he was only too willing to gush about his replacement - and especially what Alvaro Morata himself is like off the pitch , to the point he paid him a rather strong personal compliment . " He 's a really good guy , " the manager said . " It means if you have a daughter , you 'd be open to have this type of person with your daughter , to marry your daughter , a really good guy , a polite person ... " But that also raises a question , that is partially fired by Morata 's effective but conspicuously clean performances so far , and Conte 's other description of him as a " polite player " . Should a striker be so polite ? Does the 24-year-old need a bit more anger in his game , a bit more of Costa ? It 's certainly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into trouble in the way his predecessor did , just as it 's hard to imagine him seeing one of the Chelsea staff 's golf-style buggies unattended and driving it into a ditch - in the way Costa did . Conte does n't exactly wanting him doing the latter , but he does admit that the former is one specific reason why this is " the right moment " to be bringing Morata to Chelsea at 24 . It is something the manager can work on to add to his game , to give him that fire . " I think for Alvaro it 's the right moment to have this situation , to be the striker in a great team and do n't forget with previous experiences with Juventus and Real Madrid he played but not every game , not regularly . For this reason , he is at the right age to have this responsibility . Morata has the task of filling Costa 's shoes ( Getty ) " He is a good player , he is a complete player , technically strong , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for improvement . Morata is 24 years old which means you have possibility to work with this player for 10 years .

AFP/Getty Images It is one of Morata 's main positives , that has already been so obvious , and that will be tough for Stoke City to deal with at the bet365 on Saturday . There is a good argument he has the best off-the-ball running of any striker in the Premier League , and that has allowed him to score so many headers and be at the centre of so many such good chances . If a Chelsea player puts the ball in the right area , and even if Morata is being marked , the 24-year-old has the admirable ability to evade even the possibility of a challenge and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he 's so good at this it almost seems like a second sense . The one issue is that this still fosters the perception of a ' cleanliness ' to his game , and Chelsea did n't last season always play in a way that involved the ball going straight into the box . Morata does n't go and abrasively retrieve the ball and create something out of nothing in the way Costa did . Morata lacks Costa 's darker edge Getty Images ) So it does mean that either Conte is going to have to tailor his team 's game , or Morata is going to have to tailor his individual game ? The manager 's comments indicated it will be more the latter . " For me No 9 is very important , because No 9 is a point of reference for our play , but I think last season Costa played well , and in this season we have changed the striker and we have Alvaro and Michy Batshuayi , but do n't forget I can have another option - Eden Hazard . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ask specific work to my strikers . " We are talking two players who are very strong , two really good players , two No9s very strong . But I ask the same work of Alvaro and Michi , and in this position when I play Eden I ask the same . The No9 position is important as it 's point of reference for our play . " It also marries so much of their play together - and Conte feels Morata will eventually be ideal for that too . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes someone walking out of a location (Downing Street) and does not involve a causer causing a causee to move or preventing them from doing something. There is no V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] structure present, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'made a career out of running', where 'running' is part of a noun phrase describing the career, not a VP[-ing] predicate with a causee. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not involve movement/extraction or prevention.

IT 'S Friday afternoon and Doddie Weir is late . Nothing unusual , I 'm reassured , just part of the indelible charm of a man the late , great Bill McLaren once described as a mad giraffe on the charge . Eventually , the giraffe landed . The 47-year-old cuts quite a colourful picture . He just about makes it through the front door of our Glasgow city centre offices without ducking , emerging dressed in a quite magnificent patchwork tartan suit , a get up which has become almost a coat of armour to Weir as the merest hints of the biggest battle of his fulfilling yet short life begin to reveal themselves . The vividness of the reds , greens , whites and blues on this gift-wrapped man mountain are not what illuminates the scene and brings a warmth to the hearts of those there to greet him , though , but the smile across the face of this self-confessed ' numpty ' upon the welcome of friends old and new . At @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 'm there to interview . Well , apart from his dress sense , but again I 'm told that much like his timekeeping , that 's nothing new either . Loading article content Then , it happens . After shaking hands and embracing those in his company , this gentle giant is forced to call upon the aide of one of his closest friends and confidants to do up the buttons on his technicolour waistcoat for him . For a man who made a career out of running at walls of men without dropping a ball , it is the most subtle but saddest snapshot of a harsh reality that Weir and his beloved ' good lady ' , Kathy , are having to deal with on a day-by-day , instance-by-instance basis after his diagnosis of Motor Neurone Disease . Equally , it captured just a flavour of the support being afforded to one of Scotland 's most iconic sportsmen . To them , though , he 's either just Doddie or Dad . " The emotional side of things has definitely changed . Being a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ show emotion , " said Weir , when we all made our way around the corner to the lounge of a nearby hotel , turning heads as he went . " But certainly within my very close friends who phoned me up - Carl Hogg was one , Kenny Logan was another , and a few others as well - and we could n't quite finish the conversation . It was ' right , okay , I 'm going to have to phone you back ' . " There are no cracks of a quivering lip on Weir 's face as he sits perched on a long , grey , Swedish couch . Instead , just that grin and glint in the eye which continues to vie for our attentions as the traffic on Renfield Street purrs passed outside behind his sizeable frame . It 's hard to imagine anything striking him down . The phrase ' lucky ' is used by the man himself at several points during our meeting which is enough to bring a lump to the throat to someone who had never met the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , it is difficult to understand why . Weir 's life would change forever around two years ago following an accident in his home in the Borders . After catching his hand in a door back in November 2015 and suffering a loss of power , within a few months his skin started to twitch . Worried , him and the Good Lady sought help . " Maybe two or three months later I thought things were starting to get better , but my skin started to twitch . Again , I just thought it would be okay , but after some intermittent twitching I went to the doctor about July or August to start the process , " he explains . " There 's no actual test to say you 've got it . It 's just a bit of brain scans , and they did n't find one ! ' It 's not where it should be ! ' they said . The MRI was in the Borders General Hospital , but that was n't too bad because it was a new machine so you could get @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ go in the tube again , there 's not a lot of room in there ! They did n't have earphones sadly . " They then put dye in my body as well as shock testing with an acupuncture needle . I had a lumbar puncture , that was pretty sore . I think with being a big rugby boy it took a bit of doing . In December it got announced to my good lady Kathy and I that this is what we were facing . " My doctor had an idea and referred me to the hospital and then it was on to the big clinic in Edinburgh . My bloods came up normal , lumbar puncture , normal , brain , could n't find one , so then it ultimately came down to MND . We kept it quiet for a while . " The self-deprecating joke typifies the spirit of a man who was given the news just before Christmas . He remembers that Kathy took the news initially far worse than he did , and , indeed , the first few months @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , fretting over others . " I had an understanding of the issue I had . So when we got told by the professor it was ' okay , let 's get on with it ' where as my good lady was a lot more upset because she 's never been in that situation before . " I 've got it , so let 's crack on and make a difference . My good lady was quite upset that day when we left . " We kept it to ourselves over Christmas which did n't help at the same time that my mother , Nanny , had cancer at the same time and was n't very well . It was supposed to be our last Christmas together but we ended up being at my sisters for her to be there but she was in hospital . That was happening at the same time , so the rest of the family did n't really know . We had n't told the kids . Mum is still here being narky which means she 's fine . " The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ she got on to things . It 's easier for the family because I 'm able to do a lot of things and they probably do n't think there 's too much difference but in the back of the mind down the line things will ultimately change . I was still okay at Christmas , you just do n't know what 's around the corner . There 's a timetable which has never been discussed . But at the meeting they did say in a year I 'd not be walking back into the surgery , which was quite hard hitting . So here we are trying to prove them wrong . " Weir 's inspiring bravery is fuelled by many reasons , some of which we will touch on later , but first and foremost it 's Kathy and their beloved boys Hamish , 16 , Angus 15 and Ben , 13 . To those who know him , it would come as no surprise that he and Kathy protected the boys as much as they could , with the news of his MND battle only becoming public @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Zealand to watch the British and Irish Lions during the summer . " The boys have been absolutely cool about it , " he explains . " The oldest one has a bit of an understanding of it because he 's maybe Googled it . On the odd occasion he gets quite upset at times when we 're out in public with people coming to talk to me , but the other two have n't said much . We keep going over it again when I 'm going to the doctors , we do n't shy away from what I have and where we are . " We went to New Zealand this year to watch the Lions because ideally we would have like to have gone in four years ' time to South Africa as that 's where I played a number of years ago , but that may not be possible , and I promised them a Lions trip . When it comes to the kids it 's quite tricky . " We listened on : " My eldest Hamish was on his Highers , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ then put it off to April , but then thought ' no , let 's leave it until he finishes his Highers ' which worked quite well because MND Awareness Week coincided with when we were flying to New Zealand . " I did n't want Hamish to have issues at school , you just never know . So going to New Zealand when we did was good as we announced it as we were just flying away . I took my sim card out my phone because I could n't work out how to divert my calls and being tight like I am I thought I 'd get charged an absolute fortune ! " People in New Zealand were wonderful . The support we have had is amazing , and still is . For a numpty from the Borders to get so much support is quite overwhelming . " With the love and support of his Kathy , the boys and his friends and family , Weir 's outlook is as bright as his neatly-buttoned waistcoat . A staggering and inspiring position given the limited options @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the only treatment for MND is long-standing drug Riluzole , which is known to slow down the progression of a disease which stops the brain signals reaching muscles in the body . It is a one-way street , no matter what speed you are travelling down it , that Weir is hoping to change into an avenue of hope . Perhaps for himself , but most certainly for others . Again , the word lucky is mentioned . Through his foundation , Doddie Weir ' 5 Trust , he is out to raise awareness and money to not explore alternative treatments , but help fund research in the hunt for a cure . " The behind-the-scenes nursing in Scotland is fantastic . When you are n't well , there 's a lot of help , " he said . " We 've done speech therapy and voice banking . That means whenever my voice disappears you go through an iPad to press a button and it comes out in my voice . It 's worked well . " But the actual research is the issue . There @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1995 . That 's all they give you . You get blood tested every week or every month , and if your system does n't take it then they tell you to sit in a corner and they 'll wait until you 're not very well and bring the nurses in . The front end is quite frustrating . They ca n't say ' try this ' or ' do that ' because there 's nothing there . And that 's annoyed me a little bit . We 're in the 21st Century , at least you can try something . To look at the website was the first thing they said . " The time with Weir , perhaps the most humbling man I 've ever had the honour of sharing air with , is sadly coming to an end . " I 've not had a big melt , even at home , because I 'm not sure it would help , " he explains , without a hint of bravado . " Maybe the odd time in the car . But again I go back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . If it was n't me this was happening to , it would be someone else . " So crack on , get on with it ... yes , I have thoughts about the future , which is a bit tricky , because you always look to work your life to look for future and now it 's cut short by 10 or 15 years and you 've got to look at that , the kids and the wife 's future , that 's in the back of your mind ...

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'made careers out of understanding...', where 'understanding male aggression' is not a VP2[-ing] predicate inducing a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The NP object 'careers' does not function as a causee, and the construction does not convey the required interpretations.

The scene in Annie Hall where Woody Allen meets Diane Keaton for the first time happens on a tennis court . Allen brandishes a racket as masterfully as when he brandishes a hair-dryer later in the film and you might remember how the latter almost blows him off his feet . Then he goes on a rant about " left-wing , communist , Jewish homosexual pornographers " . He plays the match , and while we glimpse him strike his shots we do n't see where the ball lands , for surely it leaves his beloved Manhattan and zings right out into the Hudson , scudding the Statue of Liberty in the midriff . And that 's it . Match over , scene over . We then get down to the serious and hilarious business of the budding romance , with Keaton giving him a lift in her car , driving like a maniac , parking like an idiot , which allows Allen to crack one of the film 's classic gags : " It 's okay , I can get a taxi to the kerb @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ classic movie and it 's all it should get in any movie . Tennis is purely in Annie Hall to illustrate Allen 's hopelessly unathletic physique . He probably has the dream of being a great player just like everyone else ( if your correspondent could be merely good , never mind great , at just one sport it would be tennis ) . But it 's never going to happen ( especially not in his scrawny , spindly case ; I still have the dream ) so he sticks tennis in his movie for a laugh . The truth is that everyone pretending to play tennis on celluloid looks scrawny and spindly , even actors who thwack a racket to a reasonable club standard . It 's just one of these sports that cinema fails . And the others ? Oh , you know : the rest . Cinema fails them all . Tennis and film go together like arsenic and Robinsons Barley Water but the roll-call of all-time great sports movies , whatever the discipline , is a modest one . In the office the other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Escape to Victory ( including Kazimierz Deyna , possessor of the best movie-star hair ) but were unable to get anywhere near 11 must-see flicks .

The biopic of boxer Jake LaMotta , if it had slipped from your mind , came slamming back into it with the death last week of the former world middleweight champion . It had slipped mine , and this despite having travelled to Glasgow to see it a week before it opened in Edinburgh . At the time -- 1980 -- I thought director Martin Scorsese could do no wrong . And then he did wrong with the overblown Gangs of New York . Bizarrely , but brilliantly , that movie found a tiny part for the Edinburgh comedian Alex " Happy " Howden , and if you 're looking for a great sporting moment on film , how about Happy in Irvine Welsh 's Granton Star Cause reciting the 1972 Hibernian League Cup-winning team pressed against the fireplace while he enjoys a tender moment with his wife who 's wearing a strap-on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ brutal man , in the ring and out of it . Scorsese , and star Robert De Niro , made careers out of understanding male aggression and , not to damn them too much with faint praise , making a boxing bout look convincing on screen is no big ask if you know what you 're doing . The action in boxing is tightly contained -- it 's when you send a football down the wing for an actor to chase on pale , wan legs that sports films start to unravel . De Niro , the method actor , was perfectly willing to eat three cows a day for the necessary bulk-up . The crowd in boxing is usually in semi-darkness , reducing the familiar problem of not having enough extras . And slow-mo , which Raging Bull used , can cover up the unconvincing right hook , making it almost balletic . For these reasons and others , such as the dramas of the escape from poverty that boxing often offered plus gangster interference , there have been any number of great pugilist features , especially @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the likes of John Garfield in Body and Soul . Google for boxing fan Andy Murray 's chosen sport , though , and the first thing you find is " Top Ten Tennis Movies of all Time ... Uh , I Mean Top Five ... Nope , Three . " I can only think of three tennis movies never mind top ones : Wimbledon , Match Point and , crikey , I mean two , although now there are two more : Borg vs McEnroe and Battle of the Sexes . The problem with tennis -- that is , the beauty of the game -- is that it really is balletic . You can not slow it down . All tennis acting is wooden , or Woody . Even the most ho-hum shot from a tennis superstar would be beyond the mimicking abilities of the thesp with the smoothest backhand .

And how can Borg vs McEnroe , out now , hope to come close to that incredible fire-and-ice struggle , described by the tennis-loving wit Clive James as " the greatest match since Dan Maskell vs Henry VIII " ? Wimbledon was an appalling film . A romcom about the tennis circuit 's sassiest woman ( American ) and the man with the starchiest whites ( English ) , it was faux-Richard Curtis . There 's only one thing worse than that and it 's an actual Curtis feature . The premise was completely preposterous . Brit battles through to Wimbers final ? In the Tim Henman era that looked like the frothiest fantasy . Match Point was just as improbable -- Woody does tennis again , does London setting , does thriller -- and not even Scarlett Johansson could save it . The actress at least would make a brilliant contribution to sport in the cinema later in Under the Skin , playing an alien @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a sticky death .

There 's a group that 's not a group , a movement that does n't call itself a movement , an affinity of architects , a " constellation " as one of them calls it , whose time has come . It has been gathering influence for years if not decades and is known among architectural cognoscenti to the point where it is almost old hat , but it is at the moment when it is starting to shape buildings and bits of cities in ways that everyone else might notice . These architects pay close attention to the fact and detail of the making of buildings -- with what actually happens when something is made in one way rather than another , with the properties of scale , light , proportion and material . Their interest is n't just technical or about craft , but is motivated by the human and social qualities , the physical , emotional and intellectual interrelationships that a built space can encourage . So they combine a care about the specifics of architecture with an awareness of the world beyond it , of both other forms of art and of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Horizontal City , a display at this year 's Chicago Architecture Biennial , where architects were asked to choose a favourite interior and create a new installation inspired by it . Some chose great rooms from the history of architecture -- the vast Pantheon in Rome , the tiny and exquisite American Bar that Adolf Loos created in Vienna in 1908 -- others unbuilt spaces imagined by architectural visionaries or places made significant by their inhabitants . The New York architects Charlap Hyman & Herrero chose the apartment where Yves Saint Laurent lived with his partner , Pierre Berge , and a wondrous collection of art and design . The German-American practice June 14 chose the bar of the Folies-Berg ? re , as seen in Manet 's famous painting . The cities of the world will be better places if these architects get more say in their design The exhibitors turn these inspirations into , for example , three simple cardboard-and-paper models that show Saint Laurent 's home being progressively stripped of its contents after his death . The Folies-Berg ? re is remade as a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Manet ) surmounted by bright , simplified versions of the bottles and fruit you see in the painting . The point is that all these interiors are architecture , whether designed by named architects or not , and they acquire their meaning from the interaction of their physical properties and the lives they contain . Another layer of meaning is given by their representation in the biennial -- the poignant fragility of the models of the Saint Laurent flat and the garishness of the Manet bar which , beneath the varnish of reverence conferred by its status as great art , it would originally have had . The biennial , the second to be held in Chicago , is something of a coming-out party for this nebulous fraternity . It is directed by Sharon Johnston and Mark Lee , whose Los Angeles-based practice , Johnston Marklee , is now progressing from refined and subtle private houses to refined and subtle cultural buildings , such as a nearly finished addition to the Menil Collection in Houston . They have welcomed into their tent a multinational gathering , with participants from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if with a European tilt . Belgium and Switzerland , countries where these kinds of architecture have flourished , are well represented . There are also several British exhibitors , including Caruso St John , 6a , Jack Self and Sam Jacob , formerly of FAT . Johnston and Lee have called their show Make New History , with the idea of showing how an " open and free " attitude to the past can help generate ideas for the future . History for them can mean many things -- canonical or obscure works of architecture , popular or cultural history . It 's part of the business of making connections that go beyond the design of singular buildings . It 's also part of what makes any discipline , architecture included , work : the fact that it is drawing on the experiences of others , not operating in a vacuum . Examples of this version of history include built and proposed projects , and exhibits made specially for the biennial . There is the modification of the hutongs , the traditional courtyard housing in Beijing , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , as an alternative to either demolition or kitsch restoration . There is the Chapel for Scenes of Public Life , an installation by Baukuh and Stefano Graziani of Italy , a version of a renaissance chapel that has been shrunk in size and decorated with pop art graphics , so as to provoke musings on scale and the symbolic meanings of buildings . What the architects on show do n't want to be is an original genius , someone who produces visions out of nothing . So there 's quite a lot of copying , cutting and pasting , appropriating old things to make new ones . Keith Krumwiede of New York creates funny satirical images in which modern suburban housing pops up in great landscape paintings of the past . Sam Jacob and Tatiana Bilbao of Mexico separately propose towers collaged out of arcades , temples and other fragments . All of this takes place against the backdrop of further layers of history , in the form of the Chicago Cultural Center , an ornate former library , and beyond that the imposing buildings of Chicago @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ when gracile bamboo towers by Studio Mumbai can be seen in front of heftier concrete and steel blocks outside the window . The show 's grandest , most crowd-pleasing moment is Vertical City , for which architects were invited to submit very late entries for the Chicago Tribune tower competition of 1922 , which asked for the " most beautiful office building in the world " and became famous for rejecting entries by Walter Gropius and Adolf Loos . The architects invited this time are not the sort who often get to design skyscrapers and they come up with a room full of slender models -- like Jacob 's and Bilbao 's , and a nice example of woodturners ' art designed by 6a -- which , while they should not be taken too literally , are refreshing alternatives to the stagnant mainstream of tall building design . The Chicago biennial shows nuanced , subtle stuff , and it 's sometimes easier to say what these architects are not than what they are . They are not iconic , futuristic or dogmatic . They do n't claim to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ next generation of architects will want to do . They do n't go in for manifestos or stylistic labels , for which reason a collective celebration like the Chicago biennial has been slow to happen . Now it has , it 's an important event . Fundamentally , this stuff is good -- the cities of the world will be better places if these architects get more say in their design . It 's an engaging show , although some of the exhibits assume a knowledge of architectural history that most of the general public wo n't have , and some of them require a bit of work to appreciate . Here the biennial 's biggest weakness -- wilfully opaque captions -- verges on the catastrophic , as it converts what could and should be accessible into something intimidating and masonic . They should be changed if at all possible . If you 're not in the business I would n't recommend you cross the Atlantic for it . On the other hand , it 's as good an occasion as any to visit the architecturally astounding city of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'pull out of' in a different context, referring to withdrawing from an activity (filming) rather than causing someone to move out of or preventing someone from an activity. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

PAUL HANLON , the Hibernian captain , insists Neil Lennon 's wild rants and tantrums on the touchline are proving a constructive source of motivation as the club re-adapts to life in the top flight . The former Celtic manager is never far from boiling point during matches and some of his colourful outpourings in the relatively hushed confines of the Global Energy Stadium on Saturday brought smiles to the faces of supporters in the seats behind . Lennon was first to admit after full-time that he craves a more relaxed , carefree 90 minutes than those recently delivered , with patience tested during three draws leading up to Saturday 's narrow Dingwall victory . Loading article content But Hanlon , the unlikely match-winner with his first goal of the season , feels the players are responding positively to the very vocal feedback from the sidelines . " The gaffer is in a lot better a mood tonight than he was after we lost the lead against Motherwell , " Hanlon admitted . " We deserved the three points and created the chances . If there was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bit more comfortable . " You know he 's always there supporting you . When there 's a battle in a game , he 's kicking every ball with you . It 's good to have that support from the sidelines . He 's over the moon with the three points and he 's as happy for us as we are for each other . " Sometimes you 've just got to say , ' Yes , I can hear you ' , but it 's great . He 's passionate and wants us to win . It drives us on . It can get a bit scary in games at 1-0 up with a team like Ross County putting pressure on , but he 's there to support us . " You talk to everyone on the pitch , so it 's not just his voice . We have leaders on the pitch as well trying to help each other through the game . The more communication , the better .

For County , who slipped to second place in the table , these are worrying times with repeat themes . They did n't create quite the volume of chances they had in drawing with Partick Thistle a couple of weeks ago , but again paid a price for failing to take several . The hosts were immediately on the back foot and lost the decisive goal after only 13 minutes , with slackness from a John McGinn corner allowing Hanlon to pounce with a strike from eight yards . The story of the rest of the match centred on goalkeepers with Scott Fox , for County , twice denying Anthony Stokes brilliantly among a clutch of strong saves . At the other end , Hibs ' Ross Laidlaw was excellent in pushing a close-range Michael Gardyne shot against the post and also in denying substitute Alex Schalk . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of much of the Leith team 's play . " I think we have the players to suit that sort of passing style , " the 27-year-old stressed .

" It 's a hard league and you play hard teams every week , so you 're not always going to get your own way and play nice football . We need to be able to adapt at times as well . " It was almost the perfect day for new dad Fox , the County goalkeeper . Almost , but not quite . The small matter of the result marred a man-of-the-match performance on his return to first team favour just 24 hours after the happy arrival of baby daughter Harper . The keeper was dropped for two games in the aftermath of a costly moment of hesitancy against Rangers in Dingwall , where Alfredo Morelos was able to nick the ball from him and score . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ team gets beat but it was good to be back playing . I wanted to rectify the mistake against Rangers and I have had to wait a couple of weeks , " the former Celtic and Partick Thistle goalkeeper stressed .

Mistakes are going to be highlighted a bit more with goalkeepers and mine became an internet sensation . " I just wanted to rectify it and move on .

" On average , investors are overweight in India and underweight in China , " according to Gary Greenberg , fund manager of the Hermes Global Emerging Markets fund . But he is bucking the trend by having a large weighting in both countries while favouring China . He has 32.6% in China compared to the 29.1% of the MSCI Emerging Markets index , the fund 's benchmark . He also has 12.2% in India , compared to the index 's 8.7% . Greenberg argued that the success of emerging economies depends on whether they can transition from being industry-heavy economies to those who capitalise on their intellectual capital . Asian companies are growing in the space of innovation . Taiwan is known for its semiconductors , Korea for Samsung , and China is successful in the areas of e-commerce and social media .

At the same time the number of students in China taking science and technology degrees is increasing steadily . By 2020 , China is expected to spend 2.5% of its GDP on research and development . " It is likely to surpass the US by then , " said Greenberg . China faces a difficult transition from a rapidly growing and export-led economy , to a slower paced economy that is fuelled by consumption . Crucially , China has been growing on the back of debt , which has become burdensome . It also suffers from environmental pollution and unprofitable state-owned enterprises .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'take the hassle out of finding the right support' does not involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to be a figurative expression about removing difficulty from a process.

New council houses in Ipswich , like these in Bader Close , are some of the best new homes in the town . Picture : SARAH LUCY BROWN Archant Conservative Harold Macmillan was housing minister when millions of council homes were built in the early 1950s . Picture : PA Photo . Opposition Conservative group leader Ian Fisher said the Labour-run borough was putting too much emphasis on social housing , planning to build too many council homes and this was pushing Ipswich down the " league table " of deprived areas . I 'm sorry , but I feel he got this wrong on so many different levels -- and I suspect many people in the Conservative Party would also disagree with him on this . Ipswich is an urban @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ higher proportion of deprived people than more rural places . That is not to say there is no rural poverty . There is , and the Suffolk Foundation did a great job in highlighting that earlier in the year . It is not to say that everyone who lives in an urban area is deprived . There are parts of Ipswich that are clearly affluent and most of the town 's homes are comfortable and reasonably spacious whether they are owned by their occupier or rented . But because of the concentration of services in urban areas you will always find more people with deprivation issues living there . It has nothing to do with the number of council houses . And actually the provision of a good stock of affordable social housing helps to reduce the level of deprivation you will find in an area . Some of the best new homes I 've seen in Ipswich over recent years have been new council houses which have larger rooms and more space than you 'd find in private-sector " starter " homes . Over @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ local government , seem to have turned away from council housing . Many local authorities like Suffolk Coastal have got out of providing social housing altogether and hiving off what houses they owned to a housing association ( which has changed identity several times in the intervening years ) . In Ipswich government restrictions -- from both Tory and Labour governments -- effectively imposed a moratorium on building new council houses for the best part of 25 years , a moratorium that has only comparatively recently been lifted . Many Conservatives have a deeply-held suspicion of council houses because they believe that the vast majority of council tenants vote Labour . I 've never heard them admit it publicly , but in private that is what they believe and when you look at the ward map of Ipswich and compare it with the map of the town 's council estates you can see why they believe that . However that is not a reasonable justification to oppose council houses per se . You ca n't just build homes for your political friends . And historically @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ quality council houses in the years both before and after the Second World War . Before he became Prime Minister Harold Macmillan made his name as Minister of Housing in Winston Churchill 's government in the early 1950s , It was during his term of office that many of the Ipswich council estates including homes in Chantry , Whitton , Priory Heath , and Rushmere went up . Did he think that council housing was increasing deprivation ? No -- for him and most of his fellow Conservatives at the time council housing was a ladder out of deprivation . Look at the worst housing today . Is that social housing , either owned by housing associations or local councils ? No . It is privately-rented housing where landlords only provide the minimum facilities for the maximum rent . Many " market rental " properties provide good homes -- but in many cases the rent is so high that tenants have no real prospect of ever being in a position to be able to buy their own home . That is a fact of life @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that in a single place like Ipswich . Yes , the town needs more homes for sale but we have to accept many of those will be sold for buy-to let landlords . And the town needs many more high-quality social housing . And right now the best , and largest , provider of that in the town happens to be the borough . Ipswich council might not do everything perfectly -- but its housing service does look to be in pretty good shape . |

Wrangling of Evelyn Hall 's descriptor of Voltaire 's ideals aside , Abbott had been moved to defend the right to express yourself , after Bolt was found by a court to have written articles which contained " multiple errors of material fact , distortions of the truth and inflammatory and provocative language " . Freedom of speech is part of the compact between citizen and society on which democratic government rests Tony Abbott It was this breach of the " sacred principle " that prompted Abbott to promise to repeal section 18c , telling the Australian in 2013 people should have the right to say what they liked . " Any suggestion you can have free speech as long as it does n't hurt people 's feelings is ridiculous , " he said as opposition leader . " If we are going to be a robust democracy , if we are going to be a strong civil society , if we are going to maintain that great spirit of inquiry , which is the spark that has made our civilisation so strong , then we 've got to allow people to say @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ultimately , Abbott made a " leadership call " in 2014 to abandon his campaign to scrap the race-hate laws , because the issue had become a " complication " as he strove to unite the community . " In the end , leadership is about preserving nation unity on the essentials and that is why I have taken this action , " he said at the time . " A child learns by trial and error . A society advances when people can discuss what works and what does n't . To the extent that alternatives ca n't be discussed , people are tethered to the status quo , regardless of its effectiveness , " he said . Going further , Abbott added that without " free speech , free debate is impossible and without free debate , the democratic process can not work properly " . " Freedom of speech is part of the compact between citizen and society on which democratic government rests , " he said . " A threat to citizens ' freedom of speech is more than an error @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the give and take between government and citizen on which a peaceful and harmonious society is based . " Abbott in 2012 would not only support things being said that he agreed with : " It 's human nature of course , to support free speech , as long as it 's agreeable . The trouble is deciding which opinions can be censored . " Late last year he was back to calling for an end to restrictions on freedom of speech , which he focussed on 18c , in the wake of the case against Queensland university students , which was ultimately dismissed , and the Bill Leak case , which was dropped . " What happened to those students in Queensland is just outrageous , what 's happening to Bill Leak right now is just outrageous , " he told the Australian in November 2016 .

MAJOR plans for 106 new homes at a South Lakeland village would be " completely out of keeping " , says a parish councillor . Developer Story Homes is seeking the go-ahead to build on two grazing fields at Endmoor that are allocated for housing in the South Lakeland Local Plan . The plans include 37 affordable homes . However , a Preston Richard parish councillor has described the dwellings as " crammed in " and told the Gazette they would " amount to a 42 per cent increase in the number of houses and population within the village and a 30 per cent increase in the village footprint " . Cllr Glenn Smithers said " measured and limited expansion " of Endmoor was needed . But he told the Gazette there was " no local need or support " for 106 new homes , and the village lacked " key services " such as a post office , bank and GP surgery . He said the plans differed from the development brief agreed for the fields in several @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ computer generated in complete isolation of the character and relief of the site and its surrounding area " . David Hayward , planner for Carlisle-based Story Homes , told the Gazette the proposals had been drawn up " with the principles and guidance " set out in the development brief for the site . The company consulted with bodies including Preston Richard Parish Council before the plans were submitted , he said , " to ensure that interested parties had the opportunity to shape the proposals " . Now the planning application had been made , there was another opportunity for people to share their views . " Story Homes believes that the proposed development would create a sustainable and integrated development and make an important contribution to the district 's housing supply , " Mr Hayward told the Gazette in a statement . " We are proposing a mix of house types and in accordance with council policy some of these new homes will be affordable and will provide homes for local people to rent or buy at less than market value . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has been closely followed by Cllr Glenn Smithers and fellow villager Peter Watson , who have reported back to Preston Richard Parish Council at various stages of the local plan and development brief process . Cllr Smithers said the parish council " feared " Story Homes would start building the new homes before there was an agreed footpath/cycleway linking the new housing estate to Endmoor . He said that could lead to families being " isolated " and having to walk along the A65 road and back through the village to get to school . Cllr Sheila Eccles , who represents Endmoor on South Lakeland District Council , told the Gazette she could not comment on the plans as she is a member of the planning committee .

Friday 29 September 2017 08.03 EDT First published on Friday 29 September 2017 07.59 EDT Bruce Parry has made a career out of going native . The Royal Marine-turned-celebrity explorer may not yet be as fully-fledged an institution as David Attenborough , but if the British public were to nominate anyone to paddle up a crocodile-infested creek , tuck into a wriggling dinner or liberate their mind with shamanistic drugs , Parry would surely rank near the top . So it is worthy of note that this affable and -- until now -- mainstream film-maker has been forced to part ways with the BBC for his latest project , a documentary that stresses environmental defence begins on the home front . Due for release from Friday , Tawai : A Voice From the Forest is an empathetic , sumptuously filmed homage to indigenous groups , particularly the Penan , a Bornean community that is held up by anthropologists as a model of a peaceful and egalitarian society . Read more Parry does not just laud their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Europe , the US and other wealthy nations -- should learn from them and consider changing our consumption patterns and lifestyle values . Instead of blaming environmental destruction on foreign criminals or corrupt governments , Parry asks the viewer to consider their own responsibility . In an interview with the Guardian , he speculates this may have been why his proposal was rejected by BBC commissioning editors . " We 're not just challenging individual identity but national and cultural identity and all pillars of society . The things I learned from my time with indigenous people put me in a state where I wanted to shout at society , " he says . " When I pitched this to the BBC , I did n't do such a good job of hiding that and they were understandably put off . " Indigenous groups and protected reserves are under more pressure than ever , whether it is pollution of rivers , illegal logging of forests , encroachment by miners or infrastructure development . " They are all struggling , " Parry says . " There is nowhere @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Brazil , police are currently investigating reports of a massacre of 10 members of an " uncontacted " Amazonian tribe . The news does not surprise Parry . " It 's sad , " he says , reflecting on his own encounters with indigenous groups who get caught up in a rush for minerals . " The riches in those places turn them into a Wild West . There are so many things happening in that part of the world . It 's rough . " While this film does not engage directly with the subject of environmental defenders , he says future work is likely to do so . " Clearly there are people who are giving their lives to raise awareness , to lobby and do direct action . I fully support that . " However , he believes it is essential to take action on the home front rather than point fingers at others . Parry has previously spent time with illegal loggers , miners and cocaine producers . " Most are people just trying to get by , " he said . Simply @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Read more " It 's like slapping a plaster on a gaping wound . You 're dealing with the symptoms rather than the causes . In a sense that 's why I made this film , " he says . " My hope is that it inspires a new state of awareness . It 's a kind and gentle invitation for us to reflect on ourselves . Until we look at ourselves , those things will continue . " Globalised trade and our desire for goods is at the heart of this . It 's hard to acknowledge that , really hard . But until we do , I do n't think there is a solution . We need to think before we get hardwood furniture , or put a beautiful ring on our loved one 's finger , or buy a new phone or fill our car with petrol . " Parry says the film is an ' invitation for us to reflect on ourselves ' . Photograph : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Royal Geographic Society -- the starting point for some of the world 's most intrepid explorations . The walls are decorated with a display of photographs from Ernest Shackleton 's treks to the Antarctic . Immense tomes on the library shelves store the diaries , travel logs and notes of pioneers into the Amazon , the Congo and the Sahara . Parry is both a member of this elite club and a critic of many of the colonial values that inspired its founders . Rather than " here and there , them and us " he is more interested in complexity and interconnectedness -- a quality he finds in the Penan 's relationships with each other and the forest . Parry reflects on their ability to live so sustainably that they leave almost no trace on their environment . Inspired by their example , he has tried to make changes in his own life -- mainly in terms of making his consumer behaviour more ethical -- but he is aware that what he has done so far is a drop in the ocean . " I 'm @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ terms of consumption , " he acknowledges . " One day of my life is more than 20 generations of the whole tribe . " But he plans to make bigger changes . " Placing the environment in our values allows me to feel things differently and get happiness from something with much bigger benefits . It 's scary to say that in an interview . " The Penan are held up by anthropologists as a model of a peaceful and egalitarian society . Photograph : Munro Film Services Several times during the interview , Parry expresses concern that if he fails to get the tone right , there will be rejection from his audience . But it is a risk he has decided to take . " Going native " was once normally used in a pejorative sense . Parry aims to make it exemplary . He is not naive about indigenous communities . He has seen how most want modern material trappings and some have embraced change with self-destructive consequences . But the longer he has spent with remote communities , the more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ offer at a time of climate change , mass extinctions and alarming levels of waste and pollution . Is he still hopeful ? " I am , but I think massive change needs to happen . I want to be part of that , but at the same time I 'm learning to forage . I 'm learning the skills to survive . " |

Last Updated : 01/10/17 3:56am Ferrari 's Sebastian Vettel failed to set a qualifying time in Q1 due to an engine porblem and so pending any penalties , will start the Malaysian GP in last place . Sebastian Vettel suffered a major championship blow at the Malaysia GP after an engine failure ruled him out of qualifying , relegating him to the back of the grid for Sunday 's race . Vettel , 28 points behind Lewis Hamilton in the standings after a DNF in Singapore , will start at the back after failing to set a time in Q1 with his title rival on pole . " It 's part of motor racing , " Vettel told Sky F1 . " For sure , it 's not ideal , it 's not what we want , especially on a day where you feel @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ got it in the car but we wo n't be able to prove that . It 's a pretty bad day . " Ferrari mechanics had worked frantically for two hours to replace Vettel 's engine after the power unit suffered a glitch during Practice Three , but the German reported that he " lost turbo " on his first flying lap in qualifying and limped back to the pits . Ferrari had described Vettel 's engine change after P3 as ' precautionary ' , and the four-time world champion added : " Definitely I could have stuck with the old engine . " We need to see now what was the problem but we managed the change successfully in time - the guys pulled off a miracle and worked like crazy . It 's a shame that we could n't get out . " The four-time world champion 's woes have handed Hamilton a major advantage as he looks to build on his title lead with six rounds remaining in the season - and there will be 19 places separating them in Sunday 's race @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Malaysia GP practice sessions prior to Saturday 's shootout . Explaining the problem in further detail , Ferrari chief Maurizio Arrivabene said that the problem was " the airflow connecting the engine to the turbo " , while Ferrari spokesman Alberto Antonini added : " It seems when he was out on his preparation lap he did n't feel the right amount of power in the engine . " The reason for that , we really have to investigate . Unfortunately the time was too tight to do so at the end of the session . " We have to know exactly whether it was something wrong with the settings , or if a piece in the system did n't work as it was supposed to . Obviously we have nothing to lose if we start at the back of the grid tomorrow . " The new ICE fitted to Vettel 's car was his fourth of the year , but Ferrari have decided to install a fifth engine - incurring a now futile further grid penalty - and will start the Grand Prix in 20th. |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('knock me out of racing'). It involves a prevention interpretation where the injury prevents the speaker from racing. The verb 'knock' fits into the category of exerting force or pressure, and the NP object 'me' functions as a causee. Therefore, it is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

I fell . Scraping across the abrasive Spanish pavement , at a speed faster than I 'd like to comprehend . The peloton came of a small descent , into an open plain , where crosswinds put the peloton into the gutter on the right hand side of the road . Anticipating what was coming , I tried to move up as much as I could . It turned out I moved to just about the wrong spot , so when the fifty riders in front of me dodged a rogue mountain bike laying in the road , I , or the rider in front of me was the eventual one to finally hit . And hit it we did . The last thing I saw was this multicolored clunker lying on the road in front of me , knowing it was too late . It seems unfortunately fitting that my last journal was on the elation of victory , the peak , the pinnacle of sport . Today , quite the opposite . I lie groaning on the pavement , praying not to get hit again from behind . I got up , grabbed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ body and machine -- my bike was too damaged to ride . I shouted in the radio for a new one , but , being car twenty-one in the caravan , it took ages to arrive . I surveyed the scene , searching for the owner of the rogue mountain bike . I decided that if I found him , I would promptly make an effort to kick his ass . I saw riders , mechanics , directors , yet everyone seemed to be associated with the race . When Mitch , our mechanic , arrived with my spare bike , I tried to remount and continue on my way , but as soon as I gripped my right hood , I could feel my thumb seem to separate completely from the rest of my hand . I screamed in pain , and thankfully he had not yet let go of my seatpost . I stopped and he held my dark blue Ridley upright , as I tried to dismount without a functioning hand . I knew my Vuelta was over right there . Kilometre 113 of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the middle of nowhere . I debated trying to ride the last 94 kilometres with one hand on the bars , alone since the peloton was already minutes ahead . I then considered the possibility of crashing again and causing more damage , and thought against it . My mind was still racing , waffling between the possible outcomes of each scenario : Could my hand just be sprained ? My thumb only dislocated ? What happens if I get to the hospital now and nothing is broken ? Will I be able to live with the guilt ? I put too much into this Vuelta to give up so easily . I was still conscious and my legs were surely still able to turn the pedals . I could find a way to will myself to at least reach the finish line . I considered how I would be lauded as a hero , broken body , gaping wounds down the entire left side of my body , hands unable to hold the bars , but still somehow reaching the finish . Standing there bent over @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reason , I had a moment of clarity . I might be able to make it to the finish that day , but what good would it do me ? What if I were to hurt myself even more ? Continuing in the race with a non-functioning hand , no matter how much I tried to deny it , would be a worthless cause . I would be unable to get a result , and I would be not only a hazard to myself , but to all the other riders in the peloton . Again I thought , how ridiculous is it , this sport of cycling ? We laud these guys who ride with broken bones , risking their lives and their futures , suffering through intense pain , for nothing but to escape having three meaningless letters next to their name ? Call me a wimp , but that 's not heroic . It 's idiotic . With that realisation , I turned around and hoisted myself into the ambulance without using my hands . I hung my head , thinking about the months of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ desolate mountain pass , the ever persistent hunger I withstood trying to shed every extra ounce of fat . I thought about the amount of time I could have spent with my family , girlfriend , and friends . I thought about the amount of money I spent to do that . And I thought about how , in one brief moment , all of that work , that build up , that effort just went down the drain , only because someone misplaced their bike . As the ambulance sped along the twisty roads , it felt like each curve caused the bones in my hand to shift , but it seemed like nothing compared to the rider next to me , who could not speak until 20 minutes into our drive . Arriving at the hospital , we both swapped our previous set of wheels for new ones : him a stretcher , me a wheelchair . It seemed a little excessive considering my legs still functioned just fine . They wheeled him into the operating room immediately and myself to the front of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Two seniors groaning in pain , looking like they were approaching their deathbeds , and myself : a professional cyclist bandaged head to toe , wearing a brightly coloured American flag jersey tattered to pieces , loud stars and stripes shoes still strapped on . What contrast , I thought . One minute , I 'm flying down the road , in the company of 200 fit , healthy guys at the pinnacle of sport . An hour later , I 'm sitting in a wheelchair . As I sat there , I noticed my pockets were still full of energy gels . Some x-rays , a few bandages , and a plaster cast that looked like it was made by an 8 year-old in arts and crafts , and I was on my way . We headed back to the team lodging , a hotel above a service station . I had to stay with the team at the race for a few days still , as I was unable to use my hands . My right thumb was broken in two places , and dislocated . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . It was in those few days I realised how lucky I am . I think I may have received more messages of support in the days following my crash than I did after either of my victories this year . I was baffled by how many people offered to help me no matter where I decided to head next -- Nice , Michigan , Ireland . The team doctor set me up with an operation in Dublin . I dreaded remaining at the race . It may only be an unspoken thing between us riders , but one of the worst feelings in the world is staying at a race that for some reason you are no longer a part of . Whatever the reason : illness , injury , or just plain fatigue , if you stop , it 's best to get out as soon as you can . You feel out of place , ashamed , unnecessary . Even if it was n't my fault to be out of the race so soon , I still felt I had let down my team and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Occasionally you hear a story of some teams refusing to change riders ' tickets if they do not finish a stage for some reason , forcing them to remain at the race until the end as punishment . Of course it would n't happen at a race as long as a three week Tour , but a few days is rough nonetheless . Those couple of days , however , made me realise what a great team we have . Everyone , from the staff working hard to keep everything running , to the riders still in the race , helped me day and night .

These are my first broken bones in ten years since starting to race as a high level cyclist , and it 's my first injury to knock me out of racing for an extended period of time . So I 'm taking it as a learning experience . I 've had trouble turning my brain off or away from cycling , as when I 'm not participating in the sport , I 'm one of its biggest fans . I watched the Vuelta daily , as I had to keep up to date and follow my team , and occasionally had to give them a kick in the ass when I saw them sitting at the back . The first weeks after the injury were incredibly difficult for me to deal with . It 's partly why I 've only gotten around to finishing this journal now . I was down and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ unable to do most regular tasks without assistance . Things were n't going particularly well for the team either -- shortly after I crashed out , someone lit our bus on fire in the middle of the night , and it burned down . No joke . A week and a half after my crash , unable to stop following the Vuelta , I was home riding in the car with my girlfriend , streaming the race . I was able to see my close friend Stefan Denifl take the biggest victory of his career . For a moment , I forgot everything . I forgot the throbbing pain in my hand , forgot about my inability to do much of anything alone , I forgot the fact that I had to leave the biggest race of the year . I forgot how much I wanted to be there . At that moment , the only thing I could feel was pure joy , his ride nearly moving me to tears . Stefan and I have been teammates for three years . Over that time we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at nearly every race we have done together . Two years ago , he had a nearly career-ending knee injury , but fought extremely hard to return to the bunch . Last year , in the pending collapse of IAM we sat on our hotel room beds wondering what we were going to do . Eleven months later , I watched him take the biggest win of his career . That was when I realised this : it 's the contrast that makes sport and life so great . It 's going through those lows that make us appreciate those highs so much more . This year I have had my fair share of both . But when you always have sunshine and roses , they start to lose their appeal . It 's being down that makes me want to be back up and on top . I would n't ask for an injury like this to happen again , but I realise that it is a part of the job we do . And I 'd sign up for this season in a heartbeat again , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I will do my best to accept the ups and downs as they come and appreciate them for what they are -- they are n't mutually exclusive . The pendulum may have swung this way for now ... but it 's going back the other direction . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'get more out of' in a different sense, not related to the construction's defined properties.

While stressing the need to " absolutely press on with more devolution " , the Scottish Tory leader will also say that it is " time for a bit more Union too " . While the Tories lost seats south of the border in June 's snap general election , the party in Scotland had its best result for decades , winning 13 seats including those of former first minister Alex Salmond and SNP depute leader Angus Robertson . The Scottish Conservatives are also the second largest party in Holyrood . Some commentators have attributed the party 's success in part to Ms Davidson 's opposition to a second Scottish independence referendum . In her speech later she will call for Scotland to get more out of being part of the UK . Ms Davidson will say : " It 's wonderful that our small island nation plays host to the capital of the world .

The phrase 'put Vettel out of qualifying' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Sunday 1 October 2017 11.15 EDT First published on Sunday 1 October 2017 05.24 EDT Fortune finally favoured Max Verstappen in Malaysia as the Red Bull driver who has endured a trying season secured his second grand prix victory at Sepang . He and the legion of Dutch fans were all smiles afterwards . But the form on display from both Red Bull and Ferrari has left only frowns at Mercedes in their wake , as Lewis Hamilton and his team were forced to consider why they had been comprehensively beaten on a track at which they were expected to dominate and how it has rendered their championship challenge a far from foregone conclusion . Ostensibly Hamilton 's second to Verstappen was a good result . He has extended his lead over Sebastian Vettel to 34 points with five races left . But while Vettel scythed through the field after starting from the back to take fourth , Hamilton could do nothing about Verstappen and might have been outpaced by both Ferraris had they started at the front . Mercedes and Hamilton took their points advantage but were far from celebrating . They had entered @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lead on Vettel but ended it rather licking their wounds and contemplating just how much work they have to do before the meeting at Suzuka next weekend . Hamilton believed that even the second they achieved had been " lucky " and suggested that the team had been far from at their best across the weekend . His team , in turn , were left unusually perplexed as to why they struggled when not only Ferrari had such strong pace but also the Red Bull proved superior . However , Ferrari too endured a far from satisfactory weekend . A turbo problem put Vettel out of qualifying and his team-mate , Kimi Raikkonen , was unable to start the race from second place after he suffered what is believed to be a similar problem . Then , after Vettel 's charge back into the points , what might have been considered a highly successful exercise in damage limitation was somewhat tarnished when he collided with the Williams of Lance Stroll after the race had concluded and the pair were returning to the pits on the slowing down lap @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his line as Stroll moved outwards looking to pick up discarded rubber with his tyres , in order to make the weight limit . The stewards declared neither driver to blame but it may prove costly for the German . He took major damage to the left rear of his car and , if a replacement gearbox is required , he will probably take a grid penalty in Japan . Ordinarily this would be classed as a disastrous weekend for the Scuderia but it was mitigated by the fact that Vettel was able to show such strong pace throughout . They were using an upgraded engine and several new aero upgrades and have taken the positives from that in looking forward to the final five races . " I am still optimistic because we know we have a quick car , " Vettel said . " It 's been a difficult weekend but nevertheless the speed is there . " The view was echoed by the team principal , Maurizio Arrivabene . " All weekend it was clear we had a very competitive car , " he said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ free practice , Kimi 's front row in qualifying and Seb 's amazing fightback in the race . " Championships are not won on such performances but they have at least kept themselves in the fight and put down a marker that strongly suggests they will be able to take Mercedes to the wire . Red Bull have been long out of that title battle and after seven retirements Verstappen had begun to look as if his season could not end soon enough . The win was just the fillip he required , however , and was thoroughly deserved . He drove a mature and controlled race and having turned 20 on Saturday there was no sign of the impetuous teen as he took the lead from Hamilton on lap four with a considered move under DRS into turn one . He was thereafter untouchable and Red Bull have finally shown they may yet play their part in the championship battle . They had been struggling with correlation of data for their car , with information from computational fluid dynamics and the wind tunnel giving results that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Christian Horner , has stressed that he believed they were closer to solving their problems and Verstappen 's win is evidence they are proving successful . Mercedes in contrast , in their efforts to go forward , look to have found only reverse . The aero package upgrades they brought proved problematic from the off . They had struggled in practice , unable to nail the balance and set-up of the car and were suffering from a lack of grip . Hamilton had turned it around for qualifying but did not have the race pace required . The British driver had led from pole but could do nothing when challenged by Verstappen and wisely , with the championship at stake , chose not to defend too aggressively . The Dutchman sailed through and opened up an eight-second gap he was able to maintain throughout . Hamilton could do nothing to bridge it while keeping his lead over Daniel Ricciardo , who finished in third . Behind them Vettel was showing superlative racecraft in coming through the pack and the pace that could have put Mercedes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the end , albeit on softer rubber , he was gaining at least a second a lap on Hamilton . Worse still for Mercedes , Hamilton had opted not to use the upgrades Mercedes had brought to Malaysia , while his team-mate Valtteri Bottas , who had adopted the new package , was way off the pace . The Finn finished almost a minute down on Verstappen and had been able to do little to fend off the assault from Ricciardo in what was clearly a superior Red Bull . Hamilton does remain on the front foot in the title fight but rightly has cause for concern while Ferrari must translate their pace into a trouble-free weekend in Japan . For Verstappen at least , just returning to the top step was enough to ensure he for one leaves Malaysia on a high . " I did n't expect to win here and be faster than the Mercedes , " he said . " You know , especially after the season I 've had , I think this victory came at a very good time . " |

Alexis Sanchez is one of those footballers that can produce something out of nothing . He is easily inside the top 20 best players in the world , and Arsenal are lucky to have his services . However , things could have been very different . After one of the most long-running transfer sagas this summer , Arsenal fans breathed a huge sigh of relief as when the transfer window closed Sanchez was still a Gunner . Manchester City thought they had a deal wrapped up in the closing stages of the window , but Arsenal remained firm . With the Chilean 's contract set to run out in 2018 , Wenger refused bids in excess of ? 40 million , instead choosing to run the risk of letting Sanchez move on for free next summer . But after today 's piece of magic against Brighton , you can understand why the Frenchman was so desperate to keep the 28-year-old . After some neat build up play , Aaron Ramsay fed the ball into Sanchez 's feet inside the box . With men surrounding him from all angles , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ path of Alex Iwobi , who made no mistake from ten yards . It was a brilliant piece of play from Sanchez and you can view the goal here : Iwobi 's goal came after Nacho Monreal had opened the scoring for the home side on the 16th minute . Arsenal would eventually emerge victorious by a 2-0 scoreline , which lifted them into 5th position . After a poor start to the season , Arsene Wenger 's men have managed to transform their fortunes with six wins from their past seven outings in all competitions . Their only blemish in this run came in the shape of a 0-0 draw away at Chelsea , meaning Arsenal 's last seven results have all been positive . Wenger will also be happy that his side have managed to keep five clean sheets during this run ; especially after he watched his team ship eight goals in their opening three Premier League fixtures . Despite their surge up the table in recent weeks , Arsenal are still six points behind joint leaders Manchester City and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the game even further in the coming months .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('used their situation as an excuse to get out of being intimate'). It involves a prevention interpretation where the women prevent themselves from being intimate by using their situation as an excuse. The verb 'get' in this context implies a means to achieve a goal (avoiding intimacy), and the NP object 'their situation' is coreferential with the subject 'a further fifth [of women]', which is an atypical but acceptable type of NP object in the transitive out of -ing construction.

ONE in six British couples abstain from having sex during the entire nine months of pregnancy , a study has found . A survey of 2,000 parents shows many were worried about getting too intimate during pregnancy in case they hurt the baby , while a further one in ten felt it was wrong to have sex with a baby on the way . Getty - Contributor A third of men were excited by the prospect of trying out new positions like ' doggy style ' and ' the spoon ' during pregnancy And while expectant couples claim to have had the best sex at around four months , by the sixth month 57 per cent had stopped altogether . More than eight in 10 mums admitted that during the full 42 weeks , they only felt attractive very occasionally -- overwhelming morning sickness , tiredness and swollen ankles all contributing to them feeling less sexy . In contrast , almost two thirds of dads said they found their better half more beautiful than ever when she was carrying their child . More than four in 10 men loved their partner @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her new curves . Siobhan Freegard , founder of ChannelMum.com , who conducted the study to support the launch of their 42 week-by-week pregnancy videos , said : " Sex in pregnancy is a such a controversial subject .

Getty - Contributor Three in ten women feel guilty that they ca n't keep up with their partners ' sex drive during pregnancy " There 's no right or wrong so the key is to do what 's right for you as a couple while keeping the baby safe . " If there 's no medical issue and you are comfortable with it , you can enjoy a great sex life while pregnant - and many mums swear by sex to kick-start labour . " However some prefer to wait until the baby is born while others find sex during pregnancy is just too difficult - or even unintentionally funny @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it with your partner so neither of you feel your own needs are being neglected . " And remember even if your sex life does stop , it 's only for a few months , so enjoy spending quality time together in other ways too . " The study found a third of women felt they could n't match their partner 's sex drive during pregnancy , and a further fifth used their situation as an excuse to get out of being intimate . The average woman says her appetite for sex nose-dived four and a half months in , while they started feeling less sexy after six months .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and the phrase 'out of working with people...' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the source of enjoyment, which is not related to the transitive out of -ing construction.

LORD SUGAR has made a shock call for the BBC to axe half its staff -- and pay top stars more . The straight-talking Apprentice boss reckons his plan would save " hundreds of millions of pounds " which could then be spent on keeping hold of hit shows such as The Great British Bake Off . Lord Sugar said The Apprentice 's future is in the BBC 's hands And after revealing last week his ambition to become Auntie 's next Director-General after Tony Hall , he is happy to wield the axe himself . Lord Sugar told The Sun : " I ? actually think the problem with the BBC is that they do n't pay their ? talent enough . " They ca n't compete now . They do n't overpay for anything , they are restricted by the hierarchy not to be competitive . " They ca n't compete , that 's why they lost The Voice and Bake Off because they would n't pay for the format . WARNING : Use of this image is subject to the terms of use of BBC Pictures ' Digital @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sir Bruce Forsyth " If I ran it I would kick out half of the people who work at the BBC , a lot of the suits there in-house , and keep the workers and shut down a lot of internal bureaucracy . " It would save hundreds of millions of pounds , and I 'd take that money and throw it into the Bake Off and The Voice , compete in the market place and pay presenters what they 're supposed to be paid . " Then the BBC could come back and be the great broadcaster that it once was . " Lord Sugar 's controversial ? comments come as the Beeb faces pressure to shave ? 800million off its payroll , and follow the release of details of salaries paid to top stars . PA:Press Association The tycoon says the BBC should boot out the ' suits ' and pay talent more Chris Evans came in as the best-paid when the figures were published in July , on more than ? 2.2million a year , with other top earners including @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on ? 700,000 . Whether or not he gets the chance to make himself comfy at the BBC 's top table , billionaire Lord Sugar is showing no sign of slowing down . Tonight he is back on the hunt for a new business ? partner in the 13th series of The Apprentice , with trusty advisers Karren Brady , 48 , and Claude Littner , 68 , at his side . The tireless tycoon has admitted he would like to follow in the footsteps of Sir Bruce Forsyth , working well into his eighties . Getty - Contributor Sir Alan Sugar has turned down reality television requests from I 'm A Celebrity and Strictly Come Dancing Lord Sugar , 70 , said : " The future of The Apprentice is in the hands of the BBC . I 'm quite happy doing it , I still feel young , Claude and Karren are great , so the ball is in their court . Absolutely I 'd like to keep going the way that Bruce did , although in my own way in business @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the show 's format change in 2011 -- Lord Sugar now invests ? 250,000 into the winning candidate 's business idea rather than give them a job at one of his companies -- his passion for the series has not cooled . But he has no interest in taking part in other shows , having turned down Strictly , I 'm A Celebrity ? and Have I Got News For You . The peer said : " I do n't really want to do any other programmes . What keeps me coming back is the excitement of having a new business partner and generating a new business . " All my business partners are doing really well . That 's the exciting thing . I get a lot of enjoyment out of working with people and building up a business from scratch . I 've been offered Strictly , the jungle , Have I Got News For You , lots of them -- but it does n't interest me at all . I 'm happy to go on Graham Norton , The One Show or even have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " Piers won America 's Celebrity Apprentice in 2007 , a show then fronted by Donald Trump . Lord Sugar finds the businessman 's rise from the boardroom to US President and so-called leader of the free world hilarious -- though he 's laughing at him , not with him . He said : " I spoke to Trump a long time ago . He 's a character , is n't he ? You 've got to hand it to him , he 's full of life . " I find him humorous , although the warmongering between him and Kim Jong-un is n't very funny .

" Lord Sugar is not impressed by fame-hungry candidates , with former hopefuls such as Katie Hopkins , Luisa Zissman , Jessica Cunningham and Karthik Nagesan all ending up in the Celebrity Big Brother house . He said : " We pride ourselves in weeding out people who are putting themselves forward for The Apprentice for the wrong reasons . BBC The Apprentice has had many contestants that have entered the Celebrity Big Brother house like Luisa Zissman " One of the reasons why The Apprentice is very successful is that there are 18 new personalities and everyone has a different story to tell . But it 's difficult for them in the end , as they get withdrawal symptoms that they 're no longer on TV and people no longer recognise them in the pub . It wears off . " So the producers of these other programmes look at the characters and grab them afterwards . " Some of them are quite clever and are insulted by being approached and flatly refuse , but others accept it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ongoing media career , which of course it never does . It 's human nature and there 's not many of them . They 're a certain type of person -- the loud ones , like Karthik . " Away from the boardroom , Lord Sugar enjoys watching his beloved Tottenham Hotspur and tweeting along to TV shows , admitting he and wife of 49 years , Ann , are " telly addicts " . Lord Alan Sugar says personalities like Karthik 's make the show successful For all her husband 's rants , Ann appears to be the only one who can keep Lord Sugar in check . He holds her opinion in high regard and often references her on the show . He said : " I think the trick to a long-lasting marriage is putting family first . It 's the culture that we both come from and growing up in the East End of London . My brother has been married for nearly 60 years , my sisters were married for over 50 years . It 's not unusual for us . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 've got three children and seven grandchildren and live in a circle among ourselves in Chigwell , Essex .

" Lord Alan Sugar feels like a teenager at heart and credits his healthy lifestyle for keeping him energised for his ? business ventures . He said : " I like to think I 'm still 18 , but my wife keeps telling me I 'm not . I like cycling , tennis and flying planes .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and the phrase 'out of bitching' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'out of bitching' seems to describe the means by which Katie Hopkins made a career, which is not consistent with the construction's properties.

They 're back ! The braggers , the preeners , the self-described business masterminds who almost always turn out to be anything but . The Apprenticereturns tonight for a 13th series , and while the tasks and contestants will have changed ( slightly ) , the BBC 's glorious formula remains more or less the same . Each week , two teams with faux-meaningful names ( Apollo , Invicta , Tenacity ... you get the idea ) will compete to be the least incompetent at a job set for them by professional grumpy old man , Lord Sugar . The first episode is called Burgers - what could possibly go wrong ? Obviously by now we know the answer to that is " everything " , and we can not wait to watch this year 's crop come undone by their own hubris . Lord Sugar will see you now : women remain under-represented in boardrooms outside of this oneCredit : Jim Marks/BBC Pictures Yet for all that this licensed schadenfreude makes for delicious viewing , there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ its unhelpful promotion of many tired old stereotypes about businesswomen . The men are frequently pompous , clownish , self-important and egotistical , sure , and it 's a fair bet these types are represented in the ( real-life ) business world , too . But since that world remains dominated by men , it 's hard to get too worried by their depiction on TV . For the women , it 's different . Still dramatically under-represented in most boardrooms outside of Lord Sugar 's , women need role models they might actually want to emulate . And men need to see them as equals . Casting them as stiletto-clad dragons is unlikely to contribute to female advancement . Here , then , are the five stereotypes of women in business that are never too far from an Apprentice episode . So much for the sisterhood pulling together to help each other up . In The Apprentice , there 's rarely any sisterly behaviour . Instead , the cameras zoom in on every disagreement between female candidates , amplifying its importance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the way that undignified scrapping on Big Brother does , too . All smiles : Luisa Zissman ( left ) and Leah Totton in central London before the final of the 2013 seriesCredit : Ian West/PA Take Laura Moore and Stella English in the 2010 series . The watercooler chat in offices the next day was all about their catfight . We hate to be party-poopers , but it 's hardly the talking point we 'd want to emerge from a series in which women mean business . Lord Sugar , moreover , would do well to take his own responsibilities more seriously . This means refraining from saying things like : " What I 'm hearing is a group of ladies in turmoil . " Not helpful , Surralan. Those scenes in the shared house at the start and end of the day offer a tantalising glimpse of how the contestants fire themselves up before " work " . Out come the hair straighteners , the blusher brushes , the lip gloss . Women are shown in a cloud of bronzer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The Apprentice 2017 trailer 00:43 " We need to put on loads of make-up , high heels , we need to wear short skirts , " said 2014 contestant Sarah Dales of her sales strategy , as if to hammer home the point . " Most men will buy from females because females are more attractive to look at , " she added , setting back the position of women by , ooh , a few hundred years . But , oh , do we have to make this such a thing ? Of course women apply make-up before going out to work , but it 's hardly a routine worth devoting whole minutes of airtime to . Ca n't we see them spending more time wolfing down a large breakfast instead ? You 're fired : Lord Sugar metes out punishment to those who fail to impressCredit : Jim Marks/BBC/PA Yes , that old chestnut : women flirt to get ahead at work . Do n't they ? Last year 's winner , Alana Spencer , was seen flirting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was procuring for a task . Cue eye-rolling from Karren Brady . And in just a few frames , producers served up a stereotype we 'd prefer to let die : the resentment by one female worker of her female colleague 's perceived flirtatious behaviour , and any unfair advantage it may be bringing her . For goodness ' sake , by what piece of bad luck did all the scenes showing solidarity get left on the cutting room floor ? The bitchiest women are not generally those who win ; they are those who must be taught a lesson by being fired . ( Mind you , not winning hardly proved a setback to Katie Hopkins , who went on to make a career out of bitching . ) But before the " you 're fired " punishment is meted out , the cameras always treat us to many scenes of a bitchy nature . They 're great for ratings , clearly . Less great for the cause of women , perpetuating , as they do , the idea that we 're @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and devious ways , whereas men would be up-front and just punch whoever is annoying them in a show of manly courage . Explaining why he did n't want to be in the production team during a task that involved creating a range of sweets , 2016 contestant Sofiane Khelfa said : " I 'm not comfortable in the kitchen - I 've got a wife who cooks for me . " Thanks for that , Sofiane . Your not-so-subtle message to women aspiring to advance into company boardrooms ? That 's not your place , love . Back indoors , now . Is it too much to hope that 2017 will be the year the likes of Sofiane keep their mouths shut ? |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes an action (shooting guns) performed from a moving car, with 'out of' indicating the location or source of the action, not a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of moving car' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate or a causee object, which are essential components of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'Guzman' is the NP subject, 'trying to scare' is the V1, 'her' is the NP object, and 'testifying against her' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, as Guzman is attempting to prevent her from testifying against her by means of scaring. This aligns with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('Guzman') + V1 ('trying to scare') + NP object ('her') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('testifying against her'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where Guzman is attempting to prevent her from testifying against her by means of scaring. The verb 'scare' falls under the category of means to achieve a goal by arousing fear. The NP object 'her' functions as a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'out of Downing Street' is a prepositional phrase indicating a location, not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present in the sentence.

Ashleigh Wade ( left ) was found guilty of the 2015 murder of her pregnant friend Angelikque Sutton and will spend the rest of her life in jail The New York woman who cut a baby from her soon-to-be-wedded pregnant friend 's stomach was found guilty of murder and will spend the rest of her life behind bars . Ashleigh Wade , 24 , of Bronx , New York was delivered the verdict - that took less than five hours - on Thursday and began sobbing uncontrollably . The parents of victim Angelikque Sutton , 22 , embraced as Wade cried . ' Justice prevailed , ' said mother Deborah Sutton , according to the New York Post . ' The truth was revealed . My daughter was avenged with victory . ' It was a sentiment shared by the victim 's father , Bishop William Sutton , who added that his daughter ' was a beautiful girl .

The beautiful tot amazingly survived being cut out of her mother , allegedly by Wade , in 2015 Medical examiner Declan Mcguone was displaying an enlarged photo of Sutton 's discarded uterus and umbilical cord on a large-screen TV just feet away from the jury box when the juror was overcome , the New York Daily News reported . The judge cleared the gallery as Mcguone used his medical expertise to evaluate the woman , who passed out around 3.10pm .

During jury selection , Clancy had given jurors the unusual option @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nature of the case .

Wade ( above ) was found by her boyfriend cradling Jenasis next to the dead mother 's body . She also screamed at police ' It 's my baby ! ' as they took her into custody ' Because after she had rendered Ms. Sutton unable to scream , unable to move , the defendant took a kitchen paring knife and sliced Ms. Sutton 's abdomen open at the bottom half . ' Once she had cut Ms. Sutton 's abdomen open , the defendant cut Ms. Sutton 's uterus entirely out . She cut that uterus open , took baby Jenasis out , and discarded that uterus on the bathroom floor . ' Amazingly , Sutton 's daughter survived the vicious attack and is now a thriving 22-month-old . Holtzman said Wade had carefully planned for the attack and theft @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , baby shoes , diapers , formula , a crib , everything that an expectant mother would need , except a baby .

Pakistan have been dealt a serious short-term blow with Mohammad Amir ruled out of bowling in the ongoing second Test as well as the one-day series against Sri Lanka . Amir picked up a stress-related injury of his right shin and has been advised rest for the next two to three weeks . Amir initially went off the field towards the end of the first evening of the Test , halfway through his 17th over . He was under observation overnight as the management initially said he was suffering from pain in his left shin . He arrived with the team for the second day and came on to bowl in the 11th over of the afternoon . But after struggling through three overs , during which he looked visibly troubled and at one stage required an ice pack , he went off again . This time he was taken for an MRI scan , which revealed the extent of the injury to his right shin . The sequence of events will raise questions about why he was n't taken for a scan earlier and why he was allowed to bowl at all on the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ advised two to three weeks rest after he underwent an MRI scan today following complains of pain in his right shin , " a PCB statement said . " Amir will not bowl in the ongoing Test match at the Dubai Cricket Stadium but would be available to bat . " That leaves Pakistan , already struggling with the ball in this Test , a bowler short going ahead - with only one specialist spinner and with Wahab Riaz enduring his own problems at one stage with his run-up . Their chances of rescuing their unbeaten home record of ten years , and seven in the UAE , stand considerably reduced . It also caps a miserable tour for Amir , who went wicketless in the first Test in Abu Dhabi , and picked up just one in the first innings here . He bowled well in brief patches , though coaching staff were concerned with his inability to find fuller lengths . The impact on Pakistan 's Test side will not be so important beyond this match - Pakistan do not play another Test until May @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . But his absence in the five-match ODI and three-match T20 series against Sri Lanka will be felt . He was their standout bowler in the Champions Trophy final in June against India , a three-wicket burst at the top of the order instrumental in Pakistan 's win . And he has , since his return from a five-year ban , made a substantial contribution to the 50-over side , taking 30 wickets in 21 ODIs .

When modern women are finally fitted with their regulation compulsory chastity belts , dare one dream that they 'll come in a range of pretty colours , delightful materials and snazzy designs ? Or would it just be the old-school medieval iron trad models ? Hey , little ladies , do you think we 'd be allowed to choose ? I muse facetiously because , in the US , President Trump has issued a ruling that makes it far easier for companies and insurers to opt out of providing free birth control to employees on the grounds of religious and moral beliefs , rolling back a key feature of Obamacare . Now that it will become easier to opt out , many more will do so , with the potential to affect 55 million women . The American Civil Liberties Union ( ACLU ) and the National Women 's Law Center have announced that they will sue the government over the decision . Obamacare provisions also covered treatment for gynaecological conditions such as endometriosis and polycystic ovarian syndrome . Now , many women will be worried about being able to afford such treatments . However , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Apart from the huge amount of money that big business will save , the real target here is sexual autonomy , doubtless all sexual autonomy , but specifically the female kind that a certain mindset has long wanted to control . Contraception , though imperfect , was one of the chief liberators of women , taking much of the fear out of sex . Thus , this removal of free birth control could only be about putting the fear back into sex . At the least , putting an end to the corporate bankrolling of the more liberal , humanist , proactive and protective approaches to sex . It should come as no surprise that among the reasons cited for the change were findings that access to contraception incited " risky sexual behaviour " . Eh ? One would have thought that reduced access to contraception was far riskier and that , for both sexes , access to barrier contraception would be the least " risky " of all ? The lesson seems to be that it will never be over -- there will always be laws @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ even thinking like this is to participate in the delusion that this is about people enjoying themselves safely . Take away the figleaf of social responsibility and this becomes about stopping people being able to enjoy sex when they want , with whom they want , without fear of the consequences of unwanted pregnancy . And when I say " people " , I mainly mean women . Not that things are so peachy for reproductive rights back in Europe . Even as an Irish abortion reform referendum is under discussion for next year , a poll has revealed that only 24% of Irish people are in favour of legalising terminations in nearly all cases . Meanwhile , Prof Lesley Regan , the president of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists , has argued that parts of the 1967 Abortion Act are outdated and that women need faster , safer access to abortion , without the need for the approval of two separate doctors -- thus far to no avail . The lesson seems to be that it will never be over -- there will always be laws @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ protected . Where the Trump contraceptive ruling is concerned , it 's scary enough that it 's such a backward step -- yet scarier that it has been so slyly done . It 's an example of how a quite subtle shifting of legislative emphasis -- simply making something easy ( the opt-out ) that had previously been difficult -- could be enough to undermine , or even destroy , major sociopolitical progress , with far-reaching repercussions for women . The imminence of chastity belts or not , this appears to be an era when there 's a real need for women to stay alert -- when hard-fought gains could be eroded in an instant with the quiet swish of a departmental pen . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'removing a sizable cost out of managing their asset' does not involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a general action of removing a cost from a process, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

It 's a bleak and bitter Saturday in Stockport and the rain is lashing down on the cobbles of the market place . The weather is enough to keep anyone at home , but traders inside the market hall are reporting a stronger than usual day thanks to the Makers Market pitching up outside . The artisan market pops up monthly in cities , towns and villages across the country , including Manchester city centre , Chorlton , West Didsbury , Cheadle , Eccles - and now Stockport , which organisers hope to make a regular event . Against a national backdrop of traditional markets in decline and shops standing empty in deserted high streets , it belongs to a new generation of markets which , like those in Levenshulme and Altrincham , are somehow bucking the trend - and giving a new lease of life to the areas around them . With stalls selling everything from artisan pies to scented soy candles , they 're bringing in a new type of customer too - many of them young professionals with cash to splash . A typical stall on the Maker 's Market @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Stockport Market traders I speak to , who see the new stalls as complementing rather than competing with their offer . " It 's been really busy , I 'd say about 40 to 50 per cent busier than normal , " says Nick Williams , who has run secondhand book stall The Book Exchange for the last eight years . " Probably about 40 per cent of my customers have been new customers who have all said they 'll come back . I have a lot of regular customers as well and they 've all said it 's been brilliant . " I would hope everyone in the market thinks so . If you put people in front of my business it 's up to me to have the right goods to sell to that person . If there are any traders who do n't think it 's good to have extra customers on the market , I 'd like to know why . " Tim Gardner , whose family have run fruit and veg stall Gardner 's Fresh Produce since 1918 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to changing times and customers . " I knew today that it was this sort of market , so today I can sell things like kale and butternut squash and sweet potatoes , " he says . " If the Makers Market was n't here I 'd be a bit more basic , my regular customers are more meat and two veg . This morning I brought in romanesco cauliflower and it sold like mad . You 've got once a month for that day so I think we should gear up , but you 've got to have regular customers too . " We have people who have been coming for years and years , but those people are dying out . Some of my regulars are 90 years old . Every week I 'm losing one of my customers . " Stockport Market As times have changed , so have people 's shopping habits and many traditional markets have found themselves fighting a losing battle for custom with supermarkets . So why , in the Amazon Prime age , when your groceries @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the thumbing of a touchscreen , are a new generation of shoppers embracing markets again ? Makers Market event manager Matilda Bruchard believes it 's partly a kickback against that kind of faceless consumerism - and partly down to the experience it provides , making a market trip a day out . " It 's supporting locals , " she says . " Sometimes you get the odd comment like ' oh that 's a bit expensive ' but most people realise all our traders make their products themselves . " We offer a wide variety . It 's not just food , it 's not just crafts , we have music , we have entertainment , there is something for everyone . " After years in decline , Stockport Old Town is now the focus of huge regeneration efforts , receiving ? 100,000 Portas Pilot funding in 2012 following a review of England 's high streets by TV retail guru Mary Portas .

The event has grown to attract around 2,500 people to its monthly residencies in the market place , paving the way for a number of bars and restaurants such as Remedy Bar and Brewhouse and The Allotment that have sprung up around it , along with new food and drink-focused indoor market traders such as The Wine Guy . " I do n't think anybody would have said when we set up four years ago we 'd be able to sustain a monthly event and have the success that we 've had , " says Joe Barratt , who runs the award-winning event with his family . Foodie Friday at Stockport Market ( Image : UGC MEN ) " It was dead . The vacancy rate in the Old Town was one in two shops in the Market Place and Underbanks , which is shocking . It 's about 10 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ say it 's probably about 30 per cent now overall . " That 's because we 've focused investment around the market and Foodie Friday has played a huge part in that .

" It would see a mixture of permanent and pop-up food traders take up residence inside , alongside a bar serving craft beers from local microbreweries and an indoor ' roof garden ' hosting live music from up-and-coming bands and other entertainment . " The traditional market delivery is n't necessarily appealing to and attracting customers , " says Joe , who also runs The Teenage Market , which operates up and down the country . " It 's about a modern market , and what that means in terms of an offer is a great emphasis on food and drink but entertainment as well . " Market buildings should be at the heart of the local community . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we do n't want to see it become a shell for a branded bar or restaurant . " The whole clone towns thing , people are sick and tired of every town centre being homogenous . What markets provide is an easy way of being able to inject character into a town centre . " In terms of sustainability , food and drink is key . People might not want to buy a brooch or a carved owl but people will always be hungry . You can always rely on that as an attraction as a town . " It 's a model that has worked well in Altrincham , where the transformation of Market House into a gourmet food and drink hall in 2014 has been credited with turning the town centre 's fortunes around . Altrincham Market Nearly a third of the Trafford town 's shops stood empty according to a report in 2010 - the highest vacancy rate in Britain at the time . It has now dropped to 9.5% according to figures released by the town 's Business Improvement District earlier @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reflected in the independent shops and restaurants such as Idaho , Sugo Pasta Kitchen and Porta that have opened around the market since . In other , less affluent areas , translating the extra footfall a market brings into a thriving high street presents more of a challenge . Levenshulme Market has become a resounding community success story since it was taken over by a group of local traders and residents in 2013 . Together they have turned it into a bustling marketplace that attracts shoppers from all over the city and beyond every Saturday . Levenshulme Market ( Image : Brant Adam Photography ) The market is run as a social enterprise , with profits ploughed back into projects to improve the high street , and a handful of traders have gone on to open permanent premises in the town , including pie shop The Buttery . " It 's always been a really strong belief of ours and it underpins everything that we do that a market itself is n't going to revive Levenshulme high street , " said director @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ happen to economically healthy communities - a market needs to do more than just be there . " The market team has awarded ? 15,000 in grants to residents and traders with business ideas to improve Levenshulme since 2013 - but despite their best efforts , helping traders get a foothold on the high street has been something of an uphill struggle . Neil Buttery from The Buttery with other Levenshulme Market traders ( Image : Emma Williams ) A report published by the market last year , supported by the New Economics Foundation , highlighted a lack of available retail space on the A6 - despite an apparent vacancy rate of around 13 per cent when the study was carried out . " One of the things we were finding was although we were providing all this footfall to the high street , giving out money to people to start their own businesses , we were still struggling to get that translated into people starting high street businesses , " says Helen . " We worked with that group to develop this report which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ street , which is a really complex picture . " There are a lot of landlords who are holding on to empty properties that are n't interested in letting for some reason . " At one point we had the highest shop vacancy rate in Manchester and last year it had the highest turnover rate , meaning businesses were going into the high street and changing hands very quickly . That 's not exclusively , but often , takeaways . " Stockport Road through Levenshulme As well as landlords determined to take advantage of empty rates relief , removing a sizable cost out of managing their asset , there is also another problem in the area . A crusade was launched by Lib Dem councillor James Hennigan in 2014 to curb the number of new takeaways opening on the A6 through Levenshulme . Fast food outlets then accounted for 12 per cent of all shops on the strip , earning it the nickname Takeaway Mile . Many are only open at night and have their shutters down during the day , hampering efforts to revitalise @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an easy option , " says Helen , who believes this is why some landlords are reluctant to let to shops and other kinds of businesses . " It just feels like we 're fighting this battle . There 's a huge appetite for people to shop independently and we 've had so many people who 've started businesses because of the market but those people then are n't able to access the high street . " There are a lot of complex issues going on there and a lot of questions that we need to ask ourselves about what are high streets meant for in 2017 ? " It 's a long time overdue to have a conversation about what high streets can do for communities . The vast majority of people in Levenshulme are n't going to be able to do their shopping at multiple , old-school high street shops at 3pm because they 'll be in work . " If I 'm honest I do n't think the change on the high street reflects as much as I would expect with the changing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ attracting a huge amount of young professionals and families and the high street does n't reflect that . " In an area like Levenshulme it 's going to be incremental changes , but we 're getting there . " |

Judd said she was asked to give Weinstein a massage and then a shoulder rub , both of which she declined while trying to get herself out of the room .

Congo is a nation of sisterhood and solidarity .

' Photograph : AFP/Getty Images Congo is a nation of sisterhood and solidarity .

Congolese women have decided to take our future into our own @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enormous amount of know-how . Victims of sexual violence have been largely forgotten after decades of what seems like a never-ending war . For 30 years , since leaving school , I have worked with women here and have received dozens of death threats as a result . My home and office have been attacked and raided . One of my staff members was raped . Read more But we are changing this country from within . We women have a huge influence in our communities yet we are almost entirely excluded from Congolese political life . A lot of this is down to the traditional role of women and a government that ignores article 14 of our constitution , which demands gender equality . Only 8% of parliament is female and we have been almost completely left out of peace-building efforts -- apart from the occasional inclusion of one or two women to take notes while men speak . According to the International Peace Institute the chance of lasting peace increases by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ times of war , women 's political participation tends to decrease while sexual violence increases . For many years I have known that efforts to build peace and end sexual violence should be led from the front . A lot of meetings have taken place , which give the illusion that progress is being made . In 2000 , UN security council resolution 1325 called for women to be given equal political participation and governments to take " special measures to protect women and girls from gender-based violence , particularly rape and other forms of sexual abuse , in situations of armed conflict " . But after more than 17 years of involvement by the United Nations and three years after the UK 's Global Summit on Ending Sexual Violence in Conflict , progress on the ground is minimal . The summit cost ? 5.2m ( $6.9m ) to host while we carry out our work with nothing . Last month my organisation coordinated 65 women leaders from every province to come to our capital city , Kinshasa , to start a Congolese Women 's Forum for peace @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Lena Dunham , the former UN High Commissioner Navi Pillay and Swedish foreign minister Margot Wallstr ? m gave advice and pledged support . It felt incredible to have so many people listen to us . Less than one week after the event we started to see progress . Six women from our group and 80 local women were included alongside militant groups in peace talks in the Kasai region , a hotbed of violence , where an estimated 3,300 people have been killed by warring forces in the past year . Collectively , women made up around 20% of those in the room -- a huge contrast with similar previous events . We are now focused on increasing this further , against all the challenges . Every day I put my life at risk by speaking out , but I have no choice but to keep going . Congolese women need to be taken seriously so the DRC can finally witness the peaceful future that we have all dreamed about for many years . A part of that is in our hands . |

Reasoning
×
The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'Four in five households' is the NP subject, 'are priced' is the V1, 'out of buying a bog standard newly-built home in London and the South East' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It gives rise to a prevention interpretation, meaning that high house prices prevent four in five households from buying a home. The verb 'priced' can be classified under 'By means of exerting force or pressure', fitting the construction's requirements. The NP object 'households' functions as a causee, participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'buying a home'. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Four in five households are priced out of buying a bog standard newly-built home in London and the South East because house prices are so high , research suggests . Estate agent Savills claims that to be ' affordable ' even to just 40 per cent of buyers a new-build property would have to cost ? 250,000 or less . But it warned that ' the average new home in the south of England is not a mass-market product ' and they are largely priced at similar levels to existing homes . In London the average house price is ? 435,000 , while further out of the capital prices average around ? 290,000 . Savills : There needs to be substantially more land being released for housing development in the higher-demand areas According to Savills , it means that just 20 per cent in the least affordable areas can afford to buy a new property , with an undersupply of new homes being built exacerbating the problem . The biggest reason for this , it claims , is not inactivity on the part of builders , but the chronic shortage of land released @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Nationally , new homes volumes are up almost 50 per cent on three years ago , meaning that new housing supply is almost meeting demand across most of the UK . But London and South East regions are bearing the brunt of the shortfall -- accounting for 104,000 of the 2016 total -- which puts immense pressure on affordability . The Savills report said : ' Across much of the country , housing supply is almost meeting demand . In places with less stretched housing affordability , there was a shortfall of only 5,000 new homes . ' But in places where demand is high and affordability is stretched , there was a shortfall of 104,000 homes . ' In places with less stretched housing affordability , there was a shortfall of only 5,000 new homes . But where demand is high and affordability is stretched , there was a shortfall of 104,000 homes Savills This is pushing the price of land in London and its surrounding areas up and consequently , new @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ majority of ordinary families . A study by Yorkshire Building Society recently found that at a national level , housing affordability has been almost flat over the past 10 years -- a 0.6 per cent improvement - but while in England it has worsened by 3.3 per cent , it has improved by 18.9 per cent in Scotland and 17.2 per cent in Wales . In London , it has declined dramatically , however , with affordability worsening by 38.8 per cent since 2007 , as house prices have rocketed but wages have stagnated . Across Britain as a whole a home costs 7.8 times average wages , the same as in 2007 . But the study , which compared local house prices against local wages , said that in some areas of London and the South East , this ratio is closer to 20 times . The chart shows how housing affordability has changed since 2007 , according to the Yorkshire BS study that compared local house prices to local wages Writing in a report called On track to solving the housing crisisChris @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' To solve the problem of undersupply in the South East , there needs to be substantially more land being released for housing development in the higher-demand areas . ' Increased supply of land would reduce the level of competition , lower land values , and enable new homes to be sold at levels the mass market can afford . ' However , Buckle acknowledges that the South East is constrained by environmental and landscape designations . There should be consideration of a program of green belt swaps Chris Buckle , Savills To address the issue , he argues that the Government should force local planning authorities to free up more land for development , including in the green belt . Buckle said : ' Balancing the protection of valued landscapes against the need for more housing is a regional problem and needs a regional , market-led strategy . ' In addition , there should be consideration of a program of green belt swaps . ' The Government must provide leadership on these issues if sufficient land is to be found to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The disparity in house prices is further illustrated by this map , which shows the average growth in price per square foot across the regions since 2012 May 's keynote at the Conservative Party Conference last week was plagued by mishaps The Savills report came as Prime Minister Theresa May used her Conservative party conference speech to announce ? 2billion in fresh funding to build 25,000 new affordable social rented homes over the next five years . This is in addition to the ? 10billion already committed to funding more Help to Buy by providing equity loans for deposits to buyers . Her big reveal on ' fixing the broken housing market ' was met with mixed reviews , with many pointing out that her claim to support ordinary people achieve the ' British dream ' of home ownership has little to do with providing more homes for those renting in the social sector . Others have welcomed the social housing funding on the basis that public money is likely to attract private funding to new @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ too by addressing the up front infrastructure costs that can so often stall building projects . Steve Partridge , director of Savills housing consultancy team , said : ' The Government clearly recognises that we have a housing crisis and need a broad range of measures to fix it . ' We will need to work through the detail of how the additional ? 2billion will be brought forward , but any contribution to building more affordable homes has to be welcomed . ' It has been assumed that this will attract ? 5billion in additional funding , and we would imagine an assumption that there would be no land cost if these homes are to be built out on local authority land . ' Of particular note is the reference to additional funding being directed to ' where need is greatest ' and how that is measured . ' We know from our research that there are 100,000 emerging households per year unable to access market housing , the majority in London and the South East . ' The chart shows how housebuilding @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , particularly in the form of interest-free five-year Help to Buy loans to buyers of new-build homes , has helped boost the number of homes being built over the past couple of years . Savills calculates that it will support around 20 per cent of the 190,000 new homes expected to be built in 2016/17 , compared with 34,000 in 2015/16 and 28,000 in 2014/15 . The biggest increase has been in the number of homes being built without public funding , both market sale and built to rent units , up from only 62,000 in 2015 to an expected 111,000 this year -- an increase of 79 per cent . The Savills report does detail evidence of high delivery sites in high demand areas across the South East . These include sites in Andover ( Picket Twenty ) , Aylesbury ( Berryfields ) and Bedfordshire ( King 's Reach in Biggleswade ) , where homes are priced at a discount of up to 15 per cent compared to the local market on an average price per square foot basis . Each of these sites @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ past three years -- a build-out rate significantly above average . Even in high-demand areas , such as Cambridge and Horsham , there are large numbers of homes being sold at a discount to market averages on a per square foot basis , the firm 's researchers found . ' To build on this momentum , policy needs to go further , and our report contains some uncomfortable truths , ' said Buckle . ' Policymakers need to recognise that high volume delivery of lower priced housing will limit the capacity of developers to fund infrastructure and affordable housing in the way they currently do , via section 106 and community infrastructure levy payments , so other sources of funding for infrastructure and affordable housing will be essential . ' Savills ' report highlights areas where large scale developments are taking place , which allows developers to sell for less than the average local price Savills claims in its report that one of the ways new-build houses can make property more affordable is that if they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ counter-intuitive that a house builder would do this , but Savills says it does happen with large scale developments , even in popular areas . The report says : ' Where large sites are successfully selling high numbers of new homes in less affordable areas , the homes tend to be relatively cheap . Here , the average price per square foot of new homes tends to be at a discount to the average price of homes in the local second-hand market . ' The pressure to deliver at scale drives the developer towards building for the mass market . ' In line with this trend , three of the current highest delivery sites in higher-demand areas , Picket Twenty in Andover , Berryfi ? elds in Aylesbury and King 's Reach in Biggleswade , are , on average , priced at a discount of up to 15% from local market pricing per square foot . ' Each of these sites completed more than 600 new homes for sale in the last three years . Even in high-demand areas , such as Cambridge and Horsham , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a discount to the local market . ' For the Housing White Paper to solve the problem of undersupply in the South East , there needs to be substantially more land being released for housing development in the higher-demand areas .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes the construction of a village using shipping containers, which does not involve a causee or a prevention/movement interpretation. The phrase 'out of shipping containers' is a prepositional phrase indicating the material used, not a VP[-ing] predicate.

The experimental troupe are giving the UK city of culture a glimpse of what it might look like in 80 years ' time -- and it is n't pretty . Our writer travels to Denmark to meet the team behind this hi-tech invasion The experimental troupe are giving the UK city of culture a glimpse of what it might look like in 80 years ' time -- and it is n't pretty . Our writer travels to Denmark to meet the team behind this hi-tech invasion Up on the roof of a museum in Aarhus , Denmark 's second city , Matt Adams is offering me a vision of the future . " This is where we 'll put the habitation pods , " he says , sweeping his arm towards a white wall . " And over there is where the molecular printers will come from . " Try as I might , all I can see is a middle-aged couple up here to enjoy the sunset . They 're eavesdropping and looking a little alarmed . Adams appears not to have noticed , and is cheerily saying something about locust farms . He @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the middle of making a section of their latest multi-faceted piece : shooting five short movies that will form part of the autumn programme for Hull 's stint as UK city of culture . Combining film , live performance and digital work , 2097 : We Made Ourselves Over is offering the citizens of Hull and Aarhus a sci-fi vision of what life might be like in their cities in 80 years . Habitation pods and locust farms , brought to life with special effects , are only the half of it . Next morning , I sit down with Adams and his Blast Theory co-director Nick Tandavanitj to get to the bottom of what We Made Ourselves Over actually is . As planned , their full-scale , hi-tech invasion of Hull is under way : electric cars are prowling the streets , offering selected participants free rides , while phone boxes will let passersby speak with a character from the future . Connecting you now ... a participant gets a call from the future . Photograph : Leo Francis Although the films are being released @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . A free app offers another gateway , allowing interactive access to elements of the show . Some of this will be repeated later in Aarhus , in a live event created by Blast Theory 's other co-director Ju Row Farr , in which electric cars will whisk audiences to a mystery location to experience 2097 for themselves . When I suggest that the project sounds somewhat ambitious , Adams concedes that there are " a number of moving parts " while Tandavanitj simply nods gravely : " We have thought a few times , ' Have we bitten off more than we can chew ? ' " Then again , Blast Theory have never been shy of taking risks . Formed in 1991 and now based in Brighton , the company operates at the further reaches of theatre and performance art ( their name is a nod to the short-lived vorticist journal Blast ) . One early piece , Stampede , invited audience members to touch pressure pads that activated audio recordings describing mind-control techniques . Four years later , in 1998 's Kidnap , participants paid @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be bundled into a van and taken to a secret lair . Audiences observed this ordeal online . In recent years , their interests have been increasingly digital , not to mention dystopian . I 'd Hide You was an online game that allowed users to follow runners dashing live around the streets of Manchester . Perhaps their biggest recent success is Karen , an app claiming to be a virtual " life coach " who reveals that she has more than a few issues of her own . The concept for We Made Ourselves Over came from Hull 's city of culture organisers , who wanted a project that could occupy virtual as well as physical space . When Blast Theory suggested involving Aarhus , which was after something similar , the links between the two locations seemed promising -- both are port cities with proud histories reaching back nearly a millennium , both former industrial towns battling to reinvent themselves for the 21st century . Exploring what tomorrow might bring seemed the next obvious step , Adams says . " We wanted to create @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could think freely about what things might look like , but close enough to feel tangible . Eighty years away felt about right . " Public workshops generated narratives . One team of primary schoolers pitched the idea of downloading their grandparents ' memories via a smartphone-like device . Older people speculated what might happen to the city if -- as some predict -- global warming leaves much of it submerged . The company also interviewed Danish activists , British experts in sustainable development and artificial intelligence , and a group of artisans in Aarhus who have constructed a ramshackle village out of shipping containers . A story emerged about a community called Aarhull which , following a series of floods , is under the control of three teenage girls . They alone can decidehow it will be rebuilt . Read more Adams and Tandavanitj emphasise that , though 2097 contains elements that will hopefully appeal to devotees of Doctor Who or Humans , they regard the piece as social activism as much as entertainment . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ effects and film-making , " says Tandavanitj . " But all of those things are to get people to go , ' OK , 80 years into the future , my grandchildren will be 80 or 90 years old , how do I want them to live and how do I get there ? ' " However the work is received , the pair are optimistic that Hull 's inhabitants will get a glimpse of something extraordinary . Adams likes to imagine someone walking through a shopping centre , catching a segment of film , and doing a double-take at the otherworldly scene in front of them , with molecular printers roving across the landscape , constructing a new city out of thin air . " They 'll look at all that and go , ' Oh my God , that looks just like Hull ! ' Would n't that be great ? " |

Critics have hit out at the ' scandalous ' level of affordable housing at the new Hazel End Road development in Bishop 's Stortford , following an announcement that 50 units had been sold to housing association Clarion . According to developers Countryside , 22 affordable rented and shared ownership homes will now be available at the site once the first , 90-home phase of development is completed in early 2018 -- a proportion that falls just shy of 25 per cent . Original plans for the development of the site , which allocated 22.5 per cent of units for affordable homes , were rejected by East Herts District Council 's ( EHDC ) Development Management Committee , which stated that they considered that level to be " unacceptably low " . However , planning permission was later granted after Countryside revised the number to 25 per cent affordable housing -- despite the East Herts Local Plan stipulating that up to 40 per cent affordable housing should be provided on developments of over 15 homes .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('developers') + V1 ('using') + NP object ('viability assessments') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('providing much-needed affordable homes'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the developers are preventing the provision of affordable homes by using viability assessments. The verb 'using' can be classified under 'By means of exerting force or pressure, sometimes understood metaphorically', which aligns with the construction's requirements. The NP object 'viability assessments' is not a causee, but the context implies that the developers are the causee, making this an atypical but acceptable instance of the construction.

" These homes will still be needed and the result is that still more countryside will have to be set aside for housing than was originally planned . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the significant infrastructure at the site , including a new park , the local council agreed that the affordable housing would be provided at 25 per cent in the first two phases of the development . " A repeat viability exercise will be undertaken for future phases , to establish the possibility of increasing this provision . " A spokeswoman for EHDC said : " Our affordable housing policies say ' up to ' 40 per cent because the viability of development varies from site to site . " The percentage achieved at Stortford Fields is 30.4 per cent . " The process is tightly controlled by the council , using detailed provisions in the section 106 agreement . " The developers also agree to clauses in their respective section 106 agreements whereby they will undertake viability reassessments as the development moves forward . " In the case of the Countryside development there will be one such review and in the case of Stortford Fields , which is a much bigger development , there will be two . " If the developments move @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were first negotiated , the council would require a higher proportion of affordable housing and/or improve the financial payments received from the developers towards services such as off-site sports provision and community centres . " The decline of smoking , and the resultant shortage of the back of fag packets , must have adversely affected East Herts DC Planning capabilities . So perhaps we should feel sorry for them rather than suspicious of their motives |

The sentence contains the phrase 'get out of counselling', which fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Here, 'she' (Becky) is the NP subject, 'get' is V1, 'what they wanted to hear' can be considered the NP object (though it's a bit complex), and 'counselling' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. The interpretation is prevention (Becky is trying to avoid counselling), and the verb 'get' can be classified under nonspecific means. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pull out of attending' does not involve a causer and a causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the subjects' own decision to possibly not attend the debate, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Diary of Dorothy Hammonds and Margaret Mowll have been unearthed They started at all-female St Hugh 's Hall college at Oxford in the autumn of 1905 Their experience provides a stark and timely contrast to university life today This week reports emerged of freshers at Oxford stripping to their underwear For young ladies fortunate enough to be given the chance of a university education at the turn of the last century , it was a prickly dilemma indeed . What to do if one was invited out to a concert or an evening ' sociable ' but had no chaperone ? Stay in college and eat half-penny buns by the fire ? Or venture out into the dimly-lit streets and risk finding oneself among hordes of male undergraduates ? Such were the concerns of room-mates Dorothy Hammonds and Margaret Mowll as they embarked on their studies at the all-female St Hugh 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The two Edwardian bluestockings recorded their thoughts in an extraordinary diary recently unearthed among papers at what is now St Hugh 's College -- the prestigious alma mater of Prime Minister Theresa May , former Education Secretary Nicky Morgan , glamorous lawyer Amal Clooney and last -- but not , I hope , least -- yours truly . The black cloth-bound diary offers an intriguing insight into an era when the women 's education movement was still gaining momentum . But it also provides a stark and timely contrast to the wild partying , binge drinking and casual sex that appear to have become hallmarks of student life for so many of today 's female undergraduates . The diary of roommates Dorothy Hammonds ( circled ) and Margaret Mowll , who started at the all-female St Hugh 's Hall college at Oxford University in the autumn of 1905 , has recently been unearthed Only this week reports emerged of female freshers at Christ Church in Oxford stripping down to their undies after necking 50p cocktails with their male counterparts . The alcohol-fuelled event apparently got so out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bouncers . Goodness only knows what Dorothy and Margaret would have made of such sleazy behaviour . Turn back the clock to October 1905 and according to their delightfully witty diary , they were celebrating Halloween with other female students at St Hugh 's Hall by apple-bobbing and raisin-digging . They wrote of the excitement of roasting chestnuts on a couple of borrowed candles and the ' dangers of sitting perilously close to their exploding skins ' . Share Away from the watchful gaze of their parents for the first time , these two spirited young women , both former pupils of Clapham High School in South London , immersed themselves in academic life with relish , ' communing with the muses ' as they referred to their studies . Ironically , when reading this charming diary , it is hard not to feel that these bright friends were in some ways far more independent-minded , far more liberated than many of today 's female undergraduates . For a start , they did n't have the pressures @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that sends out the subliminal messages that all women should look -- and behave -- in the same laddish fashion . This week reports emerged of female freshers at Christ Church in Oxford stripping down to their underwear after necking 50p cocktails with their male counterparts Instead what survives is the witty musings of two sparkling minds -- women filled with purpose finding their own way in the world with a huge amount of enjoyment and satisfaction . These young ladies were too busy studying and expanding their minds to worry about anything as shallow as fashion . Their attire , according to the sketches which Dorothy also drew in the diary , included ankle-length skirts with hour-glass waists and high-neck blouses . Hair was worn up . Hats were donned for outings . And yet they occasionally , often waspishly , observed the appearance of other girls in Hall . In May 1906 , they record a new arrival ' whose lengthy toilette of an hour and a half did not produce a worthy result -- plain , prim and pink . ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' well-travelled ' visitor to college . ' She looks like it , with weather-beaten visage and flowing moustache . ' Written in the main by Dorothy , who referred to each of the young women by their initials , DMH and MKM , the pages are also filled with entertaining snippets about the young male undergraduates who caught the girls ' eyes . However , Dorothy ( believed to be sitting down on the left ) and Margaret 's diary tells stories of tennis matches and games of charades and tiddly winks But in the main , evenings at St Hugh 's back in 1905 revolved around such tame past-times as games of charades and tiddly winks and lantern slide shows as well as hastily-assembled , unsophisticated ' scratch teas ' often consisting of only bread and butter . Strong drink ? In the evenings , there were occasional ' cocoa parties ' in the girls ' rooms . Hockey matches , played against rival girls ' halls or even housemaids , and tennis matches , were also approached with gusto . The girls were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ attire , of course . What the diary shows above all is the pluckiness and independent-mindedness of these two middle-class girls at a time when women were still unable to vote and when their right to education was still in its infancy . Women were n't allowed to study at Oxford until the 1870s but then were finally admitted , thanks to the pioneering work of the Association for Promoting the Higher Education of Women . Even then , they were not allowed to take degrees or become full members of the university until 1920 . The earliest women 's institutions were Lady Margaret Hall and Somerville , which were set up in 1879 -- the former offering a strictly ' Anglican ' education , the latter , a non-denominational one . But even these colleges only catered for the bright daughters of aristocrats and the very wealthy . St Hugh 's Hall was opened in 1886 by Elizabeth Wordsworth , the great-niece of the poet and daughter of the Bishop of Lincoln , on a shoe-string , to educate poorer female students who could not afford @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Many of them , like Dorothy and Margaret , were the daughters of Anglican clergymen and among the first middle-class girls to be offered a university education -- not to mention the chance to leave the confines of their parents ' home without having to marry first . These young ladies were apparently too busy studying to worry about fashion . Their attire , included ankle-length skirts with hour-glass waists and high-neck blouses At the time they arrived , there were still only a few hundred women studying at the university compared to thousands of men . As ' lady students ' , Dorothy and Margaret had to ask permission to attend lectures . They took separate exams to men . And yet it is clear that they regarded themselves as highly fortunate and embraced all that university life had to offer . Unlike many of today 's young women students , they took nothing for granted . But that did n't mean that their lives were unexciting . Despite the strict rules and regulations that governed their lives , Dorothy and Margaret excitedly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ such as ' the Earwig ' and ' the Rat ' and ' the Fish ' . November 1st : ' Rat seen in Corpus Quad by MKM ' . November 25th : ' DMH on her return from Prof N at 1 o'clock had the supreme pleasure of seeing " the Earwig " eating his lunch , or rather we should say drinking . ' But the greatest object of their desire appears to have been the undergraduate they christened ' the Pride of all the Beauchamps ' -- the Hon Henry Lygon of Magdalen College , the younger brother of Earl Beauchamp who was said to be Evelyn Waugh 's model for Lord Marchmain in Brideshead Revisited . A coloured ink sketch made in the diary by Dorothy shows a golden-haired , handsome and debonair young man cycling with a pile of books under his arm . Their diaries provide a stark contrast to student life today . Pictured is an Oxford student celebrating after finishing her exams November 21 , 1905 was clearly a day of great excitement for both the girls @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , MKM has actually seen Face to Face the Pride of all the Beauchamps . This is the first time he has been seen accidentally in the flesh -- Thus the need of capital letters . ' In December it was Dorothy 's turn : ' DMH has astounding luck , the Pride of the Beauchamps again crossed her path , looking , she is sorry to say , horsey and common but nevertheless charming . ' But it was when venturing out that life became more problematic . Chaperones were required wherever the girls might come into contact with male undergraduates -- at lectures , at the theatre , at debates at the Oxford Union Society . The women who fulfilled this role were not always readily available and , annoyingly , sometimes they did n't turn up . On November 16 , 1905 , Dorothy and Margaret feared they might have to pull out of attending an Oxford Union debate but were saved at the last minute by the leniency of their Vice Principal , Eleanor Jourdain . ' An awful rumour reached @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ no Union for us . Now we had tickets , and we wanted to go . However , E.J arrives with the welcome news that we may dare " unchaperoned to gaze " upon the members of the School for British statesmen . ' Dare Unchaperoned To Gaze : A Woman 's View Of Edwardian Oxford is published by St Hugh 's at ? 20 Having attended the debate and sat watching their privileged male counterparts , they delivered withering verdicts on the men 's performances , concluding that ' if the speakers of tonight are England 's embryo statesmen , the prospects of the country are small indeed ' . In a pre-suffrage era , the girls themselves were clearly politically-minded and devoted much time , for example , to debating the merits of the Liberal Education Bill of 1906 . One undergraduate from Magdalen was further savaged : ' His politics were fanciful and savoured of the nursery . His style easy and boyish , not to say infantile . ' The girls ' interests went beyond politics , however . Barred from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , they attended their own women 's debating groups , discussing topics such as whether ' environment determines character ' . One diary entry recalls how men were barred from a production of She Stoops To Conquer ' except those who have reached the supreme position of a grandfather . We sorrow to relate that out of a packed assembly , only three lone grandfathers could be mustered . ' On another occasion , December 7 , 1905 , the girls , accompanied by the Vice Principal , were allowed to venture even further afield , attending a rather risqu ? ' Smoking Concert ' at St John 's College . Such events were usually attended by an all-male audience who would smoke and discuss politics while listening to live music . As the girls concluded later that evening : ' It does n't sound very respectable but the VP cast a cloak of propriety over " the proceedings " or rather over our presence there . ' DMH meets her old friend Charles who tries to renew his Christian name acquaintance , and also @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the first part of the programme because you never know how rowdy they may get in the 2nd part but we were given a foretaste of what was to come by a Comic , not to say Music hall Song , illustrated by a fandango , and accompanied by some excellent whistling . ' The VP is pleased as punch and roars with laughter . DMH fancies she has n't caught the words . ' Much is written about how cold it was at St Hugh 's not to mention the food -- the ' worried ' breakfasts they endured -- kedgeree described as ' bony , stringy , oniony ' and , if they were lucky , sausages . Simple teas were made up of bread and butter and half-penny buns . They had cake if they were lucky . They would put most modern undergraduates to shame Professor George Garnett As the pressure of their academic work grew , the diary eventually dwindled . Margaret left Oxford in 1908 with a Second in History and became a teacher , initially at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ age 60 in 1945 while teaching at Repton School in Derbyshire . Dorothy left a year earlier in 1907 with a Second in English Language and Literature and secured a position as a lecturer at an Anglican establishment for the training of women school teachers . She later become a school inspector , rising through the ranks until she was one of six chief inspectors at the Ministry of Education . She was awarded a CBE and when she died in 1974 , her obituary appeared in The Times . Her diary was handed to St Hugh 's by her godson soon after and languished in the college archives until it was rediscovered by an eagle-eyed librarian . Tellingly , neither woman married . To have done so would have probably meant an end to their careers in education and , inevitably , to their independence .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a political campaign outcome without involving a causer and causee relationship or a prevention/movement interpretation. The phrase 'out of Downing Street' refers to a physical location change, not a construction with a VP[-ing] predicate.

On the face of it , Theresa May 's party conference speech last week was the culmination of six months of worsening fortune . Between them , a P45 , gulps of water , and latterly the part-collapse of the stage set served as an obvious metaphor for the extent of her troubles since losing her majority in the election she never had to call . Even the usually hostile Daily Mirror conceded that she was the ' unlucky PM ' . I 've worked for the Tories and met Theresa May several times . She is a very agreeable person , but a combination of indecision and bad decisions means this catastrophic speech may -- bizarrely -- have been her first stroke of luck since she won last year 's leadership election . The fact that the opportunity the conference had presented -- to put the Tories back on track -- had thus been missed was first greeted by shock . Doubts in Mrs May 's leadership deepened . Yet the consensus seems to have settled rightly on the fact that anyone can catch a cold . And herein lies her luck : that all it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and away from its content was one of Philip Hammond 's lozenges , a not-very-comedic comedian and some errant lettering . For the fact that the slogan behind her lost precisely none of its value when two of its letters dropped off indicted the fact that the policies in her speech , so kindly robbed of the spotlight by the family of frogs that had made their home in her larynx , was at best underwhelming and at worst contradictory . The charade hid the chimera . " The policy in her speech ... was at best underwhelming and at worst contradictory " More to the point , it was a stark departure from the strong , vote-winning policies of the past . The Conservatives once had a proud record on housing . Tory election posters of the 1950s routinely promised a million houses a year , and Tory governments of the 1950s routinely got on and built them . Theresa May spluttered another figure last week : 25,000 new homes . That increase amounts to roughly 12 extra homes per council per year until 2022 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hovering around the lowest figure since the war . One of the planks of the aged and aristocratic Sir Alec Douglas-Home 's 1964 campaign against Wilson 's resurgent Labour was ' more houses , better houses ' -- a mantra with far less vapidity than anything ' strong and stable ' -- which still saw him roundly thrashed and out of Downing Street . You 'd think they 'd have learnt by now . Mrs May often says her guiding mission in politics is to ' tackle burning injustices ' . I wanted to believe her . Thus it was that she bravely turned her fire-fighting on the inferno that is tuition fees , by announcing that she 'd keep them just as high as they are already , in a move that the Institute for Fiscal Studies pointed out ' only reduces the repayments of the highest earning graduates ' and , because of concurrent cuts to university funding , is ' unsustainable in the long run ' anyway . So , in essence , if you 're ' just about managing ' on tuition fees of ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as long as her party wo n't get rid of her . An announcement of an independent review of the Mental Health Act was far more in line with her ambitions in this regard , but inevitably papers over the cracks of wildly underfunded mental health services in a microcosmic metaphor for the way Mrs May 's rhetoric so often interacts with government policy ; making small but visible tweaks in the interests of ' ordinary working people ' , whilst its wider direction does much to erode them .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It describes a political outcome ('saw him roundly thrashed and out of Downing Street') without involving a causee or a VP[-ing] predicate that would fit the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'out of Downing Street' is a prepositional phrase indicating a result or state, not a VP[-ing] predicate with a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

On the face of it , Theresa May 's party conference speech last week was the culmination of six months of worsening fortune . Between them , a P45 , gulps of water , and latterly the part-collapse of the stage set served as an obvious metaphor for the extent of her troubles since losing her majority in the election she never had to call . Even the usually hostile Daily Mirror conceded that she was the ' unlucky PM ' . I 've worked for the Tories and met Theresa May several times . She is a very agreeable person , but a combination of indecision and bad decisions means this catastrophic speech may -- bizarrely -- have been her first stroke of luck since she won last year 's leadership election . The fact that the opportunity the conference had presented -- to put the Tories back on track -- had thus been missed was first greeted by shock . Doubts in Mrs May 's leadership deepened . Yet the consensus seems to have settled rightly on the fact that anyone can catch a cold . And herein lies her luck : that all it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and away from its content was one of Philip Hammond 's lozenges , a not-very-comedic comedian and some errant lettering . For the fact that the slogan behind her lost precisely none of its value when two of its letters dropped off indicted the fact that the policies in her speech , so kindly robbed of the spotlight by the family of frogs that had made their home in her larynx , was at best underwhelming and at worst contradictory . The charade hid the chimera . " The policy in her speech ... was at best underwhelming and at worst contradictory " More to the point , it was a stark departure from the strong , vote-winning policies of the past . The Conservatives once had a proud record on housing . Tory election posters of the 1950s routinely promised a million houses a year , and Tory governments of the 1950s routinely got on and built them . Theresa May spluttered another figure last week : 25,000 new homes . That increase amounts to roughly 12 extra homes per council per year until 2022 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hovering around the lowest figure since the war . One of the planks of the aged and aristocratic Sir Alec Douglas-Home 's 1964 campaign against Wilson 's resurgent Labour was ' more houses , better houses ' -- a mantra with far less vapidity than anything ' strong and stable ' -- which still saw him roundly thrashed and out of Downing Street . You 'd think they 'd have learnt by now . Mrs May often says her guiding mission in politics is to ' tackle burning injustices ' . I wanted to believe her . Thus it was that she bravely turned her fire-fighting on the inferno that is tuition fees , by announcing that she 'd keep them just as high as they are already , in a move that the Institute for Fiscal Studies pointed out ' only reduces the repayments of the highest earning graduates ' and , because of concurrent cuts to university funding , is ' unsustainable in the long run ' anyway . So , in essence , if you 're ' just about managing ' on tuition fees of ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as long as her party wo n't get rid of her . An announcement of an independent review of the Mental Health Act was far more in line with her ambitions in this regard , but inevitably papers over the cracks of wildly underfunded mental health services in a microcosmic metaphor for the way Mrs May 's rhetoric so often interacts with government policy ; making small but visible tweaks in the interests of ' ordinary working people ' , whilst its wider direction does much to erode them . And the announcement of a limited energy price cap , disliked by her party and which 's proposed structure is liable to drive smaller players out of market , seems a similarly wretched sop . Even having met her in the flesh , I am left with no clear idea as to why she is in politics . Perhaps she wo n't be for much longer , but if that most fortuitous of croaks had n't put a human face on such sheer insipidness , there 's a very good chance she 'd have gone already |

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('Labour moderates') + V1 ('talked') + NP object ('John McDonnell') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('making it official policy'). It also exhibits a prevention interpretation, where the action of making it official policy was prevented by the act of talking. The verb 'talked' fits into the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot, specifically under 'By means of enticing, flattering, or verbal persuasion'. The NP object 'John McDonnell' is a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The Corporation is the municipal governing body of the City of London ( Source : Getty ) Christian May There has been much talk of the Corbynite faction of the Labour party taking over constituencies and party machinery around the country . The examples are everywhere -- from newly elected hard-left MPs on the party 's ruling body to the efforts to deselect ' Blairite traitors ' . But this week a senior Labour figure painted a picture for me of the consequences of a hard-left Labour takeover of London 's councils . It runs like this ... The radical transformation of the Labour party 's membership has delivered Jeremy Corbyn as leader and has facilitated the emergence of a front bench compromised of diehard socialists , anti-capitalists and Marxists . It has also reshaped local associations and party machinery right down to the selection of council candidates . According to veteran Labour figures from the Blair , Brown and Miliband days , this will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Uber in Islington " or " no Amazon in Haringey " . These policies wo n't actually take effect , but the message itself would , over time , be deeply damaging to London 's global reputation . Alongside such examples of student politics , a more coordinated effort will emerge to strip the City of London Corporation of its historic powers . John McDonnell is already on the record supporting such a move , and was only talked out of making it official policy at the last election by Labour moderates . With the Corbyn takeover of the party totally complete , there will be no such restraint in the future . Any official move against the Corporation by the Labour party ( either nationally or spearheaded by Labour councils in the capital ) would put Sadiq Khan in a sensitive position . Would he be peacemaker , or would he sense an opportunity to extend his own powers ? The Corporation itself needs to wake up to the reality of the Labour threat , and not wait until the revolutionaries are at the City gates . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as Mark Zuckerberg , the tedious hyper-nerd and founder of Facebook . We 're told he has eyes on the presidency , but seems incapable of talking about anything other than the importance of " connecting " -- his favourite word , by a mile . Alas , Mark did n't make many good connections when he appeared as a smiling cartoon character taking a virtual tour of hurricane-hit Puerto Rico from the comfort of his own office . Switch it off , Mark . As we all know , capitalism ( and business in general ) is falling out of favour with the public . Not so much that millions of people are giving up possessions and bartering for food , but enough that they might actually vote for Corbyn . One fixture of British life guaranteed to swell anti-business sentiment is the appalling reality TV show masquerading as a business programme , The Apprentice , whose ' candidates ' are just fame-hungry half-wits . Let this ( 13th ) series please be the last . Lenin referred to the West 's communist sympathisers as " useful idiots " -- and today there 's no shortage of shadow cabinet members who fit the description . RT is the Kremlin-controlled news channel pumping out pro-Russian propaganda in the UK , and Richard Burgon ( the hapless shadow justice minister ) is a regular guest . Pro-Corbyn MPs line up to take their seats in the studio , without caring that Human Rights Watch describes Russia as " more repressive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's opinion pages are a place for thought-provoking views and debate . These views are not necessarily shared by City A.M. |

Former Manchester United manager David Moyes has reflected on his time at Old Trafford and revealed that he wanted to sign Nemanja Matic before he made his way to Chelsea . The Serbian eventually moved to Old Trafford but Moyes was left wondering what could have been if he had showed more enterprise in his transfer activity . The former Everton manager was sacked midway through the campaign in his first season at Old Trafford , following his failure to qualify for the Champions League . Moyes got a second chance last season as manager of Sunderland , where he failed miserably yet again , finishing bottom of the table and were duly relegated and is currently without a job .

" I 've got to say we looked at Nemanja Matic as well . Matic at that time had n't done so well for Chelsea and had gone back to Benfica and he was a consideration . To be fair , we looked at them ( Fellaini and Matic ) and in a way we probably did need a more defensive type , somebody who would sit and make passes from the middle of the park . " But we did n't get a lot of things we hoped for and in the end we ended up only getting Marouane on deadline day as well or we would have had no signings in that summer at all . " |

A Lancashire dad who was diagnosed with a life-threatening disease after struggling to breathe is calling for more understanding of the rare condition . He tells AASMA DAY how coping with things mentally as well as physically is a major part of the battle . It was the week of a major high and a life changing low when David Scott discovered he was expecting his fourth child and diagnosed with a rare heart and lung disease within days of each other . David , 40 , who lives in Fulwood , Preston , has pulmonary hypertension , a life-limiting illness that causes high blood pressure in the blood vessels connecting the heart and lungs . He is speaking out about his story following the results of a survey by the Pulmonary Hypertension Association ( PHA UK ) , which shows pulmonary hypertension has a major impact on people 's quality of life . In the same week David discovered his wife Kylie was pregnant with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at Blackpool Victoria Hospital , was diagnosed with the condition . David had always been fit and healthy and exercised regularly playing football and running half-marathons . But in 2012 , he began finding exercising difficult and getting breathless when doing simple things like climbing the stairs or even talking . Investigations revealed he had pulmonary arterial hypertension . David says : " I had never heard of pulmonary hypertension when I was diagnosed so I did what any 21st century boy would do and I asked Dr Google . " And that 's when it all went black . Out of everything I 've been through healthwise over the last four years , the memory of being told I had pulmonary hypertension is still the thing that haunts me . " That same week I was diagnosed , I found out my wife was pregnant with our fourth child . Immediately , I wondered whether I would even see my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . I know everyone dies eventually , but it 's very rare that you 're given a sell-by date . " Pulmonary hypertension is very rare , affecting just 7,000 out of 64 million people in the UK . The Living with PH Survey , which looked at all aspects of life with PH , discovered that emotional and mental wellbeing and relationships with family and friends are severely affected by the condition . It also revealed that 48 per cent of patients waited over a year after first experiencing symptoms before being diagnosed and 40 per cent had to see four or more doctors . David , who is treated at the Royal Hallamshire Hospital in Sheffield , says : " If anything , it 's the mental strain that I have suffered from more than the physical symptoms . It 's a draining condition that unless you look to get support for it has the potential to drag you down . The mental strain is the hardest part as things just creep up on you and I keep having bad memories of when I was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are not the same as everyone else . When my daughter Lorien was born , seven months after I was diagnosed , she reminded me that life is never hopeless if you do n't lose hope . My children help me manage my condition by making me smile more than anything or anyone can -- even when I do n't feel able to . " David , who has daughters Abby , 14 , Megan , 10 , Matilda , six and Lorien , three , is doing really well and managing to exercise a lot , baffling doctors . He says : " Doctors are really pleased with my progress and I have levelled out . I am not getting any worse , but I am not going to get better either . It is all about trying to cope with everything mentally as well as physically . It is about making sure you get as much psychological support as you can . The support of my wife and my daughters has been invaluable . " The survey revealed that concerns about life expectancy have the biggest @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reporting a ' major impact ' . Almost two thirds ( 63 per cent ) said that financial worries had an impact on their lives . The PHA UK is using the survey to campaign for public policy changes that will improve quality of life . Its programme , ? PHocus2021 , is aiming to reduce the time to diagnosis , ensure access to treatments and reduce financial hardship . * Pulmonary Hypertension affects the ability to carry out basic tasks and get around . * Adult patients with PH are treated at seven specialist centres across the UK and children with the disease are treated at Great Ormond Street Children 's Hospital in London . * Thanks to a range of highly advanced treatments developed over the last 15 years , people with pulmonary hypertension have seen quality of life improve and life expectancy double to around six to seven years on average , with many living longer . But there is no cure . Some have heart and lung transplants . * People can be born with PH or develop it at any time @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ background . It affects more women than men . |

The sentence does not exhibit the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'opt out of providing contraception' involves 'opt out of' followed by a gerund, but it does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction as it lacks a causer-causee relationship and the specific interpretations associated with the construction.

The Museum of the Bible is set to open in Washington DC next month but visitors wanting to learn more about Jesus may be disappointed as his story is only briefly touched upon .

The sentence does not exhibit the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'opt out of providing contraception' involves 'opt out of' followed by a gerund, but it does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction as it lacks a causer-causee relationship and the specific interpretations associated with the construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a career made from being an assistant manager, which does not align with the construction's properties.

The Leicester job was Shakespeare 's first taste of management ( aside from a one-game caretaker role more than a decade ago ) and he had grown accustomed to life as a number two behind Claudio Ranieri . But when the Italian was controversially sacked in February he first took the role on a caretaker basis before he was appointed permanently this summer . Despite the initial upturn in fortunes that his appointment brought ( and the subsequent awarding of a three-year contract ) , it was difficult to deny the the temporary feel to his stewardship . So it proved . Is it possible for an assistant to be promoted with success ? A glance at the history of assistants taking the step up shows something of a common theme . Promoting from within after a manager has been sacked rarely yields positive results unless the the former assistant was sufficiently removed from the previous regime . Conversely - and unsurprisingly - those that have the benefit of following in the footsteps of greatness tend to succeed . Is it the case that their faces are just too familiar to ditch the association with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ clear from a previous era ? Here are some examples of when promoting from within worked - and times when it did n't . The most caring of caretaker managers , Carver has taken temporary charge of clubs on numerous occasions in his coaching career . Brief stints at Newcastle , Leeds , Sheffield United and then Newcastle again paved the way for him to finally be given a ( slightly ) longer crack at the big time - without great success . John Carver did not last long at NewcastleCredit : afp Alan Pardew 's departure in early 2015 saw Carver first promoted to a caretaker role before he was given the managerial job on a temporary basis until the end of the season . There were no guarantees over whether he would stand a chance of gaining the job permanently , but he was given the task of finishing in the top half of the table . Instead he oversaw a run of eight successive league defeats , only narrowly kept the club in the Premier League @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ June . Manager material or better in the backroom ? Backroom The case of Shakespeare bears an uncanny resemblance to that of Di Matteo at Chelsea in 2012 . The Italian had worked under Andre Villas-Boas as assistant manager from June 2011 , prior to stepping up to the main role on a caretaker basis when Villas-Boas was sacked in March the following year . Di Matteo guided Chelsea to their first Champions League triumph , an FA Cup final victory and was rewarded with a two-year deal to remain as manager on a permanent basis . Yet , just like Shakespeare , his spell in charge was short-lived and he was ditched by November following a poor start to the 2012/13 season . Manager material or better in the backroom ? Backroom ( despite his success when caretaker ) Surely no one can challenge Harford for number of promotions from assistant to permanent manager . He made his first step up at Fulham in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ club in the First Division , but resigned after they were beset by financial problems and relegated the year after . He then climbed the same ladder at Luton Town , where he had great success , guiding them to victory in the League Cup final before a relegation battle saw him sacked in 1990 . Ray Harford made the step up to manager on four separate occasionsCredit : Getty Images The third move from assistant to manager came later that year when Bobby Gould was sacked as Wimbledon manager , but he resigned in October 1991 to take up a role as Kenny Dalglish 's assistant at Blackburn Rovers . Despite vowing that he would never again step up from No 2 to the manager 's chair , he did just that when Dalglish quit in the wake of the club 's Premier League title triumph . They finished seventh in Harford 's first season in charge and he then quit in October 1996 after the club failed to win any of their first 10 games . Manager material or better in the backroom @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' Little Sam ' has made a decent career out of being an assistant manager , but his time as the man in charge did not go so swimmingly . The former Liverpool midfielder gained his nickname during his time as No 2 to Sam Allardyce at Bolton in 2005 . When ' Big Sam ' departed the club in April 2007 , Lee was asked to step into the manager 's role but managed to win just one league game from 11 matches and was sacked in October . He has since returned to the coaching ranks , thriving in his various behind-the-scenes roles . One who perhaps did not flourish in the limelight . Manager material or better in the backroom ? Backroom The Dutchman had never plied his managerial trade outside of his native country when he was recruited to be Jacques Santini 's assistant manager at Spurs in the summer of 2004 . Alas , Santini lasted just 13 games before his tenure ended and Jol was confirmed as his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : action images He was a quick hit as manager , turning around the club 's fortunes and narrowly missing out on a Uefa Cup spot in his first season in charge . The club came within a whisker ( or a dodgy meal ) of making the Champions League the following campaign and Jol guided them to another fifth-place finish the next year . He lost his job early in the following season . Manager material or better in the backroom ? Manager Vilanova climbed the Barcelona ranks with Pep Guardiola , serving as assistant for Barcelona B and then the main Barcelona team until 2012 . When Guardiola announced his departure that April - a year after guiding the club to a Champions League and La Liga double - Vilanova was immediately confirmed as his successor at the helm . It was the first time he had taken a main managerial position since an unsuccessful spell in charge of Spanish lower-league side Palafrugell almost a decade earlier , but he nonetheless led Barcelona to another La Liga title @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that year , but remained as manager until he was forced to resign for health reasons in July 2013 . He died in April 2014 . Manager material or better in the backroom ? Manager A Liverpool stalwart throughout his playing career , Paisley returned to the club first as physio and then assistant manager to Bill Shankly . When Shankly retired in 1974 , Paisley was promoted to the top job despite some reluctance as a successor - Paisley had once said : " Bill loves it . He likes the razzmatazz . I 'm a backroom boy . Always will be . " His managerial career at Anfield proved a huge success and he won six league titles and three European Cups during his nine years in charge . |

Leon McCarron walked 1,000-plus miles from Jerusalem , through the West Bank , Jordan and the Sinai desert ADVENTURER , story-teller and film-maker Leon McCarron does n't know what it 's like to do ' ordinary ' holidays , although when he returns from one of his long-distance expeditions , he must often feel in need of one . For someone , though , who has slept under the stars in the Sinai desert in Egypt , with only a couple of friendly Bedouin tribesmen and a camel for company , lying on a sunbed around a crowded hotel pool might fall short of the mark . The Co Derry lone traveller , who has made a career out of documenting his offbeat trips , has written a new book recounting his visit to the Middle East last year , during which he walked 1,000 miles from the divided city of Jerusalem , through the Israeli-occupied West Bank , then Jordan , and the Sinai Desert in Egypt .

His last trip lasted five and-a-half months and , three pairs of walking boots later , the 31-year-old has not only survived wild hiking trails , political turmoil , desert temperatures and a grisly mass sacrifice ( of sheep ) , but has returned even more enthused about life and humanity than ever .

" They live on the top of a sacred mountain and , although they are close to Judaism in beliefs and practises , they are a distinct group in their own right . " The Samaritans charity was named after them and they are an Abrahamic religion who still chant in ancient Hebrew and practise the religious ritual of animal sacrifice .

So , even a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society , winner of the 2017 Neville Shulman Challenge Award ( which aims to further the understanding and exploration of the planet ) can make the occasional slip-up when packing emergency supplies ? " I guess I am a pretty happy-go-lucky kind of person , " he reflects , " although , having said that , I generally wo n't take uncalculated risks .

" I always meet new and interesting people , but sometimes I just miss the familiarity of talking to someone who knows you really well , " he admits .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'take' is used with 'enjoyment' as its object, and 'out of helping my players succeed' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the source of enjoyment, which is not the intended meaning of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Steve Borthwick stands clear of every player in history as the most-capped Premiership Rugby player of all time . But ask the 38-year-old himself and he is far from done yet , with the former Bath Rugby and Saracens captain taking to coaching like a duck to water and continuing to build his legacy in the game . After a career that spanned from 1998-2014 , and including a record 265 league appearances , Cumbrian-born Borthwick was inducted into the Premiership Rugby Hall of Fame last week . The former lock joined Ben Kay , Jason Robinson , Kyran Bracken and Nick Easter at the Honourable Artillery Company in London for a glittering gala in their honour as they became members of the exclusive club . Renowned for his lineout expertise , Borthwick also excelled on the international scene making 57 England appearances -- including 21 as skipper . And now after impressive coaching spells with Japan , England and latterly the British & Irish Lions since hanging up his boots , the sky is truly the limit for Borthwick . " We 're @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and I 've had some great experiences playing the game , " he said . " I 'm looking forward to many , many more still to come in my career now as a coach . " All of those inducted alongside me were great players , and I 've been very lucky to have played alongside and against them . " You learn more from playing against great players than anyone else , and it was so enjoyable to see old friends at the Premiership Rugby Hall of Fame Gala and talk about those games that we played with or against each other . " When I started out playing I had great ambitions ; I made the decision very early on in my career that I would commit everything I had to trying to achieve those ambitions . " And if I did n't achieve everything that I set out to , it was not going to be for lack of trying .

His track record upsetting the applecart has continued into his coaching career ; Japan shocked the world at the 2015 Rugby World Cup , England went on a record-tying run of 17 consecutive victories over Tier-One nations under his tutelage , and the Lions denied the world champion All Blacks a series triumph in New Zealand . And Borthwick admits pushing others on to bigger and better things is what gives him the greatest sense of accomplishment . He added : " I always took great enjoyment in helping and seeing my teammates succeed . " And now as a rugby coach I take the same great enjoyment out of helping my players succeed too -- I hope that can continue . " |

Communication in the workplace has come a long way since chat by the water cooler was the best way to tap into what 's going on in an organization . The advancement of email and then social media technologies and the subsequent development of messaging applications such as Whatsapp , Facebook , Skype and Slack promised to take the difficulty out of communicating , with the intention of making our lives easier . But do they ? We 're now able to contact just about anyone , anywhere , anytime and , as a result , our workplaces are now flooded with an endless stream of meeting requests , updates , and alerts . Consequently , a modern day workplace epidemic -- communication overload -- has broken out as workers struggle under the weight of ineffective communication , poor employee collaboration and low productivity . Clarizen recently conducted a survey of nearly 300 companies around the world to gain a deeper insight into workplace communication and productivity . One of the most pertinent and disturbing findings was that only 16% of companies say their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by 81% saying their attempts to improve workplace communication failed to improve productivity . As companies seek to constantly maximise productivity , the temptation to adopt a range of communication tools and practices that seemingly simplify employee interaction -- but actually complicate it -- is all too enticing . The survey found that in the past year , companies deployed one or more of the following communication tools to improve productivity : Unfortunately , without solid communications infrastructure that enables employees to exchange information efficiently in a business context , companies find themselves mired in a quagmire of poorly linked tools , practices and systems -- which in fact cause more delays and increase costs . As impressive as many communication tools are in terms of user experience , simplicity and flexibility and delivery -- all the bells and whistles -- companies are either not utilizing them effectively or the technology itself is simply not applicable to the work being done . What clearly emerged from our survey is that there has been a widespread breakout of communication overload in organizations across the globe -- characterised @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ emails , irreverent alerts , and topping it off by saturating the workplace with too much non-work related chit-chat over a variety of communication platforms . The problem lies in how communication is dealt with on a business level . A key taking from our survey found that 70% of respondents say they need to go beyond creating additional lines of communication , and facilitate better collaboration among employees so they can work together to meet objectives , coordinate activities and monitor progress . As a result , they 're realising that communicating is not the same as collaborating . It is clear that businesses need to rethink their approach of extending communication to improve productivity in the workplace . Endless requests for boardroom meetings and placing high-importance urgency tags on emails are causing communication fatigue and turning out to actually be detrimental to productivity . Instead , companies need to focus on streamlining communication channels by employing an end-to-end platform that maximises productivity levels and harnesses the power of efficient communication practices and tools . So , what steps do businesses need to take to remedy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The following key areas highlight how companies might cure the epidemic of communication overload : * Refrain from adopting a totalitarian approach -- obliterating all forms of communication in the workplace bar one is counter-productive .

Euan Murray admitted that Raith Rovers were made to work hard for their clean sheet against Arbroath on Saturday . The 23-year-old defender claimed a deserved man of the match award after a dominant showing at centre-half alongside Iain Davidson . The pair were in the right place at the right time throughout a testing 90 minutes against a side who were previously unbeaten away from home in 13 months . " It was a great win , " Murray said . " We knew Arbroath were going to come here and make it difficult for us , and try and make us not play our usual game . I thought they did that , but we dealt with it well . " We weathered the storm for the first half hour and we 've got players like Vaughany , who 's on fire at the moment , who scores a goal out of nothing , and from that we go on and control the game . " If we can do our job and keep a clean @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the game . " For us a clean sheet is the best we can do , and I thought the boys in front of us helped us out too , and big Smithy had a part to play as well behind us . " It 's a team performance and collectively we 've done well to win the game . " Raith used the same system that helped deliver Irn-Bru Cup success at St Mirren the previous week , with five across midfield helping ensure a solid defensive display . " The gaffer identified that shape , and if you look at Arbroath , they were unbeaten away from home in a year so they 're obviously doing something right , " Murray said . " They were maybe expecting us to come out all guns blazing , but we thought if we could be compact , frustrate them , and then get ahead we would dominate the game better . " Even going forward we were still a threat . " It 's not going to be same shape every week but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us . " Murray has seen his position chop and change between centre-back and left back due to injuries , and although he prefers to play in the middle , he has performed well in both , helping the club to the joint best defensive record in Scotland , alongside Celtic , with just five league goals conceded thus far . " I 've done it a few times at various different clubs , although centre-half is my preferred position , " he said . " I 'm comfortable enough in both , it just takes you the first 10 or 15 minutes when you move a position to get your angles . " We 've been unlucky with injuries but it says a lot about the team spirit and the type of characters we 've got that we 're still doing well . " The victory was an important one as it took Raith five points clear at the top of League One after the gap had been reduced to three following the defeat to Albion Rovers a fortnight ago . " We @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dropped way below our standards against Albion , " Murray said . " It was a blip for us , but that 's the kind of characters we are , that we come out and win the next two games . " |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'grown out of wanting', which does not involve a transitive verb with an NP object and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Very rarely does the television industry come up with a truly good idea . That said , it may have accidentally stumbled across one . The Dutch version of The Voice is about to make a spin-off series dedicated solely to pensioners . The Voice Senior will consist of a handful of episodes , none broadcast live , that will feature only contestants aged 65 or over . And , honestly , it sounds like the best possible version of The Voice . Based on statistics alone , the standard version of the show is a dud , with none of the winners going on to achieve a meaningful career in music . Meanwhile , The Voice Kids comes with the horrible tang of exploitation , since its contestants are unable to process the level of rejection that participation requires . However , if all the contestants are retired , everything changes . The likelihood is that they will be entering purely for the joy of singing . They will have no expectations , and none of the sweaty desperation of their younger counterparts . The whole thing will be about the elderly having fun . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The Voice Senior will be replicated around the world . To be frank , the entire landscape of unscripted talent-show television -- chock-full of identical , hoary franchises all content with spinning their wheels to ever-diminishing returns -- needs a boot up the rear , and , by God , the elderly are the people to deliver it . The more I think about it , the more I believe that most shows ( with the possible exception of The Jump ) would be truly galvanised by OAP spin-off versions . Let me walk you through some ideas . Unlike First Dates , which does include its fair share of the elderly , Love Island is focused solely on the lunk-headed buffoonery of youth . This is one hell of a missed opportunity . A full series where all the strutting , hair-gelled , horny , twentysomething morons were jettisoned in favour of a selection of people who had already had their hearts broken by divorce or bereavement and just wanted to find a moment or two of meaningful companionship would be a tremendous , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on how kind you are being , The Apprentice lives to serve one of two functions . The first is to find genuinely capable businesspeople and celebrate their ingenuity . If that is the case , then it is only logical to make a series where all the candidates have built up a lifetime of knowledge and wisdom . The Apprentice 's second function is to locate and promote a series of dreadful rightwing , reactionary Katie Hopkins-style wingnuts , and anyone who has ever been home for Christmas knows that these are n't exactly in short supply among older people . Either way , it is a win-win . If anything , The X Factor would benefit from a senior version even more than The Voice , purely on the basis that pensioners are much less likely to put up with any of Simon Cowell 's nonsense . Imagine one of your grandparents taking part in the six-chair challenge . Imagine how quickly they would realise that life was simply too short to spend squabbling in such a gladiatorial bear pit . They would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ faux-agonised face , would n't they ? It would be brilliant . I would be much more keen to watch The X Factor if none of the contestants was invested in the show 's bullshit machinations . Imagine a version of Big Brother where the contestants had long grown out of wanting to peacock for the cameras . Imagine a version of Big Brother where the contestants had figured out how to stem domestic flare-ups before they became unmanageable . Imagine a version of Big Brother where the contestants actually knew how to run a household . That 's the version of Big Brother I would like to watch . Admittedly , in Channel 5 's hands , they would probably just turn it into a live-feed of a nursing home , full of people shouting frail non-sequiturs over full-volume Police Interceptor repeats , so maybe we should rule this one out . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes situations where motorists avoided paying for tickets due to external reasons, not involving a causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'get' is used with 'a kick' as its object, and 'out of going to see him' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the NP object 'a kick' does not function as a causee.

The man does not perspire . I discovered that on 12 September , on the island of Saint Martin , a French territory in the Caribbean that had been devastated a few days earlier by Hurricane Irma . Uprooted trees , roofs ripped from houses , streets blocked by mountains of debris : for three hours Emmanuel Macron , president of France , has been walking through what remains of the village of Grand Case in the sweltering , clammy heat amid the strong odour of burst sewage pipes -- or in other words , of shit . Everyone accompanying him , including the author of these lines , is dripping with sweat , literally soaked , with large circles under their arms . Not him . Although he has n't had a second to change or freshen up , his white shirt with elegantly rolled-up sleeves is impeccable . And so it will remain until late in the night , when the rest of us are exhausted , haggard and reeking , and he 's still as fresh as a daisy , always ready to shake new hands . Every interaction with Macron follows the same @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and does n't look away . As for your hand , he shakes it in two stages : first a normal grip , and then , as if to show that this was no ordinary , routine handshake , he increases the pressure while at the same time intensifying his gaze . He did the same thing to Donald Trump and it almost turned into an arm wrestle . Then , with his other hand , he clasps your arm or shoulder , and when the time comes to move on , he relaxes his grip while lingering almost regretfully , as if pained to cut short an encounter that meant so much to him . This technique works wonders with his admirers , but it 's even more spectacular with his enemies . Contradiction stimulates him , aggression galvanises him . To those who complain that the state took its time bringing relief , he explains calmly and patiently that the state does not control extreme weather conditions and that everything that could be anticipated was anticipated . At the same time -- and we 'll come back to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stops repeating , just as calmly , just as patiently : " I came to Saint Martin to hear your anger . " And it 's a good thing , too , because up comes an angry woman named Lila , who bars his way and accuses him of not giving a damn about the victims ' suffering , and of coming " just to perform " before the TV cameras in his ironed shirt and plain tie that does n't look like much but must have cost a fortune . She 's so vehement that the group of islanders who have gathered around them start booing and jeering and saying that 's no way to talk to the president . Anyone else would have taken advantage of the situation and said : " You see , the people are behind me . " Not Macron . For him , Lila is a challenge . He takes her hand and his face divides in two -- something I 've often seen it do : the right half , brow creased , is determined , grave , almost severe , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's doing it in the eyes of history . The left half , meanwhile , is cordial , optimistic , almost mischievous , giving you the feeling that now he 's there , things will be all right . For five , 10 minutes , he soaks up Lila 's wrath . He has a schedule he has to stick to , and his team 's in a hurry , worried about running overtime -- and they will run overtime , they always do . Nevertheless , it 's as if he has all the time in the world , and in fact he does : he 's the boss . One wonders if he 'll win over Lila , who , now feeling self-assured , growls cockily : " I 'm a bit of a pain in the ass . " To which he responds with his most charming smile : " I admit , that did n't escape my attention . " Good one : she smiles back , she 's going to back down , she backs down . Then at the last moment , as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and says : " Let go of my hand , damn it ! Let go of my frigging hand ! " For me this " Let go of my hand ! " was like a desperate attempt to cling to her anger -- and her integrity . To escape the president 's hypnosis , his persuasiveness worthy of the Pied Piper of Hamelin , his almost frightening seductiveness . Watching him , I was reminded of the opening credits of the TV series The Young Pope , in which Jude Law , dressed in an immaculate cassock , advances across the screen as if on a cloud , in slow motion , weightless , and at one point turns and winks at the camera . Macron winks often . He did it to me . In any event , no matter what you think of him , whether you see his rise as a political miracle or a mirage destined to fade away , everyone agrees : he could seduce a chair . The professional commentators who started to drop him after just a few months of his presidency @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with royal pretensions , a rich man 's president or a communicator without a cause , but he could n't care less . The people , by contrast , with whom he is directly , physically in contact , are his bread and butter . Anyone who 's had their hand shaken by Macron is lost to the opposition : they 're destined to vote Macron and to convert to Macronism . But you ca n't shake hands with everyone in the country . And anyway , just what is Macronism ? Let 's take another look at his file : just three years ago this young man was totally unknown to the general public . By contrast , he was very well known to a small Parisian milieu in which politics , finance and the media are almost incestuously intertwined . In this milieu -- which he looks down on today , as if he had never belonged to it at all -- everyone prides themselves on being his friend , having his mobile phone number , and getting upbeat text messages from him in the middle of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ banker at Rothschild & Co -- in this line of work , you ca n't do any better . At 34 , he joins the cabinet of then president Fran ? ois Hollande as deputy secretary general . And , let it be said in passing , for one-tenth of what he was making as a banker : it 's not money he 's after . I remember seeing a documentary on the new Socialist president at the time : everyone , starting with Hollande , seemed stiff , like stuffed animals dressed up in the dark suits of power . Everyone , that is , but one sharp-witted , vibrant guy with sideburns , the only one in this gallery of mummies who seemed truly alive . That was the day I learned the name Emmanuel Macron . Just two years later , this young man is minister for the economy , industry and digital affairs . Hollande adores him : he 's the ideal son who 's so good at charming his elders that a big name in the Socialist party calls him the " old folks @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his mentors , tell him that if he wants to make a career in politics he has to choose a constituency , run for office and become an elected deputy : that 's how it 's always been done in the Fifth Republic . Macron thanks them for the advice , but does n't run : he 's not interested in doing what 's always been done . The presidential election approaches . By all accounts it will play out between the Socialist left burdened by Hollande 's morose five years in office , the right caught up in fratricidal quarrels , and the eternal populist wildcard that has borne the name of Le Pen for the past 40 years : business as usual . Then , in April 2016 , exactly one year before the election , the young and dashing minister of the economy announces to a sparsely filled room in his home town of Amiens that he is creating his own party , En Marche ! -- with an exclamation mark . It will take some time before the commentators figure out that the initials EM @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whose ambitions and convictions little is known . One month later he hands in his resignation to a confused Hollande , and leaves the government . Even if his intelligence and charisma are generally recognised , no one at this point would put a penny on his winning the presidential election . Or almost no one , that is . To the first people who attend his meetings and join his party , Macron repeats like an incantation that they will remember it all later , like those who joined de Gaulle in London in 1940 : they were there , right at the start of the adventure . And what an adventure ! This is a guy who only runs for a single office in his entire life , that of president of the republic , and wins . A guy who understands that the parties that have structured French public life since the end of the second world war are clinically dead , and that it is time to offer the French something new . What we 're seeing , he maintains , is a clash between @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ audacity , conservatism and progress -- and it goes without saying that he , Macron , embodies progress , openness , audacity , the new . He says he 's neither on the right nor the left -- although saying that usually means you 're on the right . So would n't it be more accurate to say he is on the right and on the left at the same time ? And here we are again , back at the famous " at the same time " . This banal , everyday expression has now become practically unusable in France , except as a running joke . For a normal French person today , saying " at the same time " is already making a joke about Macron , who has raised this speech mannerism to the level of a philosophical position . As soon as he thinks something , he says to himself that you can also think the opposite , that other people think the opposite and that you have to see things from their point of view . When adopted as a general principle , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the old centrist utopia : overcoming rifts , choosing the most open and the most competent people from each camp , governing in the centre , bringing people together . Many have dreamed about what in the last century was still called " the third way " between economic liberalism and social democracy . But in recent years , no one has been able to revive it , until Macron appeared with his stainless self-assurance and phenomenal good fortune . It 's said that when inquiring about an officer he did n't know , Napoleon asked only one question : " Is he lucky ? " In his staggering rise to power , the young man who has nothing against being compared with Bonaparte benefited from an unprecedented planetary alignment . President Hollande decides not to run again -- partly because this spiritual son , about whom he 'll say " he betrayed me methodically " , was also in the running . The Socialist party chooses as its candidate Beno ? t Hamon , who 's likable but a lightweight . The conservative candidate , Fran ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had with a string of scandals and lies . That leaves Marine Le Pen , who will self-immolate during the one-on-one debate with Macron by showing just how sectarian and unfit to govern she is . The way is clear . At 39 , Macron becomes the youngest head of state in French history , and an international star . The country 's entire political class is dumbfounded . Stunned , former president Nicolas Sarkozy is said to have commented with disconcerting humility : " It 's me , but better " . During the campaign , Macron changed . At Orl ? ans , on a day of fervent tribute to Joan of Arc , he all but explicitly compared himself with the Maid of Orl ? ans : heralding from a distant village , alone , unknown to all , she hears voices that command her to save France -- and what 's more , she does . Macron , meanwhile , this former student of the ? cole Nationale d'Administration ( for decades , the finishing school for the nation 's political elite ) , banker @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the insider who knows the rules of the game like the back of his hand -- reinvents himself as an inspired outsider , a mystic capable of ending a meeting by whirling around in front of 8,000 people , his arms folded in front of him , his eyes half-closed , chanting " I love you ! " until his voice goes hoarse . Just after he was elected , Fran ? ois Hollande said he would be a " normal " president . France , ungrateful , wasted no time in finding that " normal " was n't a quality they wanted in a leader . Macron , who saw his predecessor get bogged down and systematically takes the opposite stance , announces that he 'll be a " Jupiterian " president . Such ambitions give one pause for thought . The same goes for Macron 's decision to do away with the traditional televised Bastille Day interview , on the grounds that the questions put by the journalists risked not doing justice to the new head of state 's " complex thoughts " . The words @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ many jokes , but they were n't uttered by accident . Placed in quotation marks , they were approved by his communication experts , and one imagines that " complex thoughts " is the new name for thoughts " at the same time " , thoughts that view reality from on high and take account of its many facets . In the same way , in Macron 's entourage there 's no longer any talk of " reforming " the country , but straight up " transforming " it . That , incidentally , was one of the first things he said to me : " If I do n't radically transform France , it 'll be worse than if I did nothing at all . " But still , aside from glorifying Macron 's personality , what is Macronism about ? Almost six months after his election , the question feels more and more pressing . The new president gained power thanks to his charm , and by offering the country a breath of optimism it badly needed . Like Britain , France was once a world power @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ promises that with him , it can ; that if France follows him , it will become as seductive and competitive as he , Emmanuel Macron , this young president and envy of the world . For several months we really did feel good about ourselves , but now it seems that this Prince Charming effect is dissipating . The number of French people who approve of Macron has plunged from 66% to 32% since the elections -- a historic drop . Why ? Because a statesman who really wants to make things happen will inevitably become unpopular ? That 's what he says , and it 's true . Because he promised to act fast and he is acting fast , and because to do that he is willing to force through his policies ? Because his labour law reform , fast-tracked by executive decree , better suits bosses than workers ? Because by scrapping the wealth tax he 's favouring the rich ? Because , although his campaign focused on overcoming divisions , he 's increasingly moving rightwards in a way that shocks voters on the left @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all , a hint of arrogance and class contempt . When he criticises " slackers " and those who " kick up bloody chaos " , it 's the poor and unemployed who feel targeted . And when he talks about train stations where " the successful cross paths with those who are nothing " , no one hears what he surely meant to say : that inequality saddens him and that he 's trying to reduce it . No , everyone hears that the unsuccessful are nothing in his eyes . I spent a week with Macron and his entourage to report this article , and as it was a week of travelling -- to Athens and then to Saint Martin -- my conversations with Jupiter took place , logically enough , in the sky . All power elicits courtlike phenomena , which you can observe at leisure in the presidential plane . But this court is hyper-cool , because the president 's inner circle is made up of young people who , at 30 , have jobs you can normally only get at 50 , if at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ total control freaks , have all adopted the boss 's direct , easygoing style . Yet , as easygoing and direct as he is , the boss never forgets the historic dimension of his role , and it 's in this made-to-measure suit that he goes on his first official visit to Greece . What 's at stake , and in my view what makes the trip such a challenge , is that the president must tell the Greeks things they want to hear -- namely , that their cause will be taken up with Germany -- while at the same time saying nothing that risks rubbing Angela Merkel the wrong way . When I share this fledgling idea with him , he deflects the question . ( Admittedly , I did n't exactly expect him to say " You 've hit the nail on the head . " ) Nevertheless , he does n't mince his words : " The Greek crisis was a European crisis , a European failure even . Instead of punishing its leaders for their lies , we punished the people of Greece , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The rifts produced in Europe by this crisis are deep , and that 's why I have to go to Athens : to return to the source , to talk about democracy . " Talking about democracy is what he did on the Pnyx , the hill in the centre of Athens where in ancient times the assembly of citizens raised their hands to vote on the city 's laws and budget . From there you can see over to the Acropolis , and in the early evening light it was a scene of stunning beauty . Almost 60 years earlier , Andr ? Malraux , a great writer and minister of culture under General de Gaulle , delivered on the Pnyx one of the memorable and nebulous speeches that were his trademark , and you ca n't help feeling that Macron intends to situate himself in this tradition -- that of the visionaries and not the managers , the philosophers and not the bureaucrats . Macron giving a speech on the Pnyx in Athens in September . Photograph : NurPhoto/Getty He started by breaking the ice @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Greek , learned phonetically . And , speaking as someone with a smattering of modern Greek , I can tell you that 's no mean feat . Then he launched into his favourite topic : Europe , and the sovereignty of the European peoples , which he does n't want to leave , he says , to the faint-hearted , fearful clan known as sovereigntists -- those rightwing populists who want to shut out the world and retreat into splendid isolation . Half an hour of fine rhetoric leads up to the oratorical climax : " Look at the time that we are living in : it is the moment of which Hegel spoke , the moment when the owl of Minerva takes flight . " Macron does n't explain the metaphor ; no doubt he overestimates his audience 's level of philosophical sophistication . Minerva is the goddess of wisdom , and the owl is her symbol ; this owl , Hegel says , waits for night to fall before flying over the battlefield of history . In other words , philosophy ca n't keep pace with events @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , " provides wisdom but it continues to look back . It looks back because it is always so easy and so comforting to look at what we have , what we know , rather than at the unknown ... " Later that evening I told Macron that I had really liked his speech , and he looked at me with intense gratitude , as if no one 's opinion could mean more to him . Then I said , without meaning any harm , that I had also very much liked the speech given by his host , the Greek prime minister Alexis Tsipras . In a flash , his blue eyes clouded over and he turned away : other , more pressing matters called . Still , I had been sincere . I thought his speech was very fine indeed . What 's more , it 's not every day that you hear a head of state appealing to the authority of Hegel . He did n't do it like someone who 'd been handed a draft by a speechwriter , but like someone who knows what @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ notion of the " cunning of reason " , which is to history what the " invisible hand " is to the market , and which explains how , in serving their personal interests and desires , without knowing it , great men help bring about what the time intrinsically demands . When it 's not Hegel he 's quoting , it 's Spinoza , who he loves for his struggle against the " sad passions " such as bitterness , resentment and defeatism -- to which Macron himself seems to have had remarkably little exposure . Today in interviews he engages in dialogue with the German thinker Peter Sloterdijk , and while still in his 20s he served as assistant to Paul Ricoeur , an immensely respected , octogenarian humanist philosopher . Since Mitterrand , we have forgotten what it 's like to have a cultivated president . The day after his speech on the Pnyx , there was a lunch with Greek intellectuals . These Greek intellectuals were ardently Francophile , and quoted one great French poet after the next . With each poem Macron was able @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , reciting the next verses without missing a beat . Baudelaire , Rimbaud , all by heart : it 's hard not to believe that this man really likes poetry . Such mastery is intriguing : you start looking for the flaw , the chink in his armour . Macron has political enemies , but there 's not much gossip that circulates about his personal life . According to one rumour , he 's gay . His wife and he denied it with elegance and good humour , and without making a big thing of it . Nevertheless , there is at least one somewhat screwy anecdote in his unofficial biography , a bungle that puts him in a more human light : the Le Monde takeover affair . In 2010 , Le Monde , the most venerable French newspaper , was put up for sale . Unusually , the newspaper 's statutes allow the journalists to choose the buyer . The bids come in and the journalists are having a tough time keeping them straight when the young and dapper Macron , then a banker at Rothschild , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bono , he says , because he likes Le Monde , and the press , and the freedom of the press , and that kind of thing . The people at Le Monde find him super nice , and they get a kick out of going to see him at Rothschild & Co late in the evening after the offices have closed . Two powerful groups are lining up to buy the paper . The journalists favour one group , but Macron is n't thrilled with this , because that group includes a banker who he hates . As for the rival group , it 's being advised by a certain Alain Minc . The ? minence grise behind a good many French politicians for the past 40 years , Minc has a reputation for devious clairvoyance , even if the candidates he has backed have generally been defeated at the ballot box . Around this time , by chance , a journalist working with Le Monde , Adrien de Tricornot , has some business near the Champs- ? lys ? es in the building where Minc 's luxurious @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sees Minc coming out , accompanied by ... Emmanuel Macron . In what follows , Tricornot has to be taken at his word , but he 's a respectable journalist and , crucially , the story has never been denied . In a fit of panic at being caught playing a double game -- apparently advising both Le Monde and Minc at the same time -- Macron rushes back into the building , runs over to the staircase and disappears . Tricornot follows in hot pursuit , and finally catches up with him on the top floor , trapped and with no way out , ridiculously pretending to be talking on the phone : a child caught with his hand in the cookie jar . The journalist then takes cruel pleasure in saying to the Jupiter-to-be : " Well , Emmanuel , we no longer say ' hi ' to our friends ? " There is nothing Macron hates more than being caught out . At one point in the election campaign , he stated that French Guiana , a French overseas department , was an island -- @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up everywhere by the media , he defended his remark by saying that of course he knew French Guiana was n't an island , but that , stuck between the Atlantic and the Amazon , it was nonetheless a sort of island -- more an island , in any event , than not an island . I was able to observe this poker-player 's preternatural self-assurance in person earlier this month , when I saw him briefly once again at the Frankfurt Book Fair , where France was the guest of honour . Macron gave a sparkling opening address , followed by Angela Merkel , who spoke in her more down-to-earth way . Then Macron swept off to shake the hands of authors and editors . Macron with Angela Merkel in Frankfurt earlier this month . Photograph : John Macdougall/AFP/Getty It 's all going well until the Franco-Congolese author Alain Mabanckou pushes his way through the crowd to say that he heard Macron 's speech and has one criticism . " Yes ? " Macron asks , seizing the writer 's hand . Mabanckou explains that the president @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that is , the entire French-speaking world , particularly the former French colonies ) . It would be easy to answer that , in a speech celebrating Franco-German relations , that was n't the heart of the matter . But Macron says something else , eye to eye : " Talk about Francophonie ? I did nothing else . " Somewhat exasperated , Mabanckou insists : " You did n't mention a single great Francophone author . At the very least I 'd have liked to hear the name L ? opold S ? dar Senghor . " " You did n't listen closely enough to what I said , " Macron replies , " I did talk about him ! " The situation becomes embarrassing . Hundreds of people are there , and none of them haveheard the name of the great Senegalese poet and statesman any more than Mabanckou or I have . At that moment it becomes clear that the incident could blow up and go viral , Macron understands he 's got to back down , and his way of backing down is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Senghor 's name , but that his name is understood whenever you talk of Francophonie -- so that as soon as you say " Francophonie " it 's clear to all that you 're also talking about Senghor . ( As a former maths teacher of Macron 's said in an interview for a documentary : " In my discipline , things are fairly simple : either you know the answer or you do n't . But I discovered that there 's a third possibility : the young Macron . " Even if he does n't know , he 'll string you along until you 're convinced he does . ) When I asked the president 's office for permission to accompany and interview Macron , it went without saying that he would not read the piece prior to publication . The one condition : that I send them the sentences I quote Macron as saying . This is customary in the press , and protects the person being interviewed from journalistic extrapolations . But it also protects the journalist against the interviewee 's bad faith : once he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ turn around and say he did n't say them , or that they were misrepresented . In theory , I had no problem with such an arrangement , but in practice , I do . I 've got several dozen pages of notes in front of me , jotted down during a half-hour interview on the flight to Athens , and an hour-long one on the way back from the Caribbean . And in all of my notes , in my view , there 's only one really strong , really beautiful sentence -- and this really strong , really beautiful sentence , this sentence that rings true , was off the record . In its place I was given permission to use a perfectly dull , perfectly formatted variant , which I will spare you . By default , then , here are some samples of the president 's words : " I believe our country is on a cliff edge , I even think it 's in danger of falling . If we were n't at a tragic moment in our history , I would never have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ calm weather . My predecessor was , but I 'm made for storms . " And again : " If you want to take a country somewhere , you have to advance at all costs . You ca n't give in , you ca n't fall into a routine . But at the same time , you have to be willing to listen . Listening to people means recognising their share of anger and suffering . And that 's something that will always belong to them . I 'm not here to promise happiness , but I can recognise this constant , this uniqueness : it 's the only way to respect them . " And finally : " France is n't cynical , but the elites think it is . France is n't made to be a postmodern country . " I listen to him saying such things -- they 're quite interesting and in any event he says them well . His voice is youthful and smooth , his sentences fluid , natural , persuasive . Sometimes I ca n't help smiling to myself , for example @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the ancient Greek word for a foreigner accorded some of the privileges of citizenship -- in the world of politics and the media . That 's the word he uses , " metic " , and you can see why it gives rise to smiles when it 's used to describe Emmanuel Macron . Why not " pariah " while we 're at it ? So I listen , half under his spell -- OK , let 's say three-quarters . And I remember the comment made by my fellow writer Michel Houellebecq : " I tried to do an interview with him ... Frankly , getting people who talk very well to say something real , something true , is like pulling teeth ... " I continue to look for the flaw . Everyone has one -- a place of shadow and secrecy , a melancholic zone -- and as a writer , my job is to see them . With Macron , they do n't exactly jump out at you . Nonetheless , I 'm sure they exist , or rather , I hope they exist . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ throws him off a bit . He reflects , hesitates , then : " My flaw ? Maybe that I 'm claustrophobic ... " He remains pensive , and for the first time I hear something like three dots between the words that file from his mouth in battle formation . " ... Not in the physical sense : I do n't have any listed phobias , but I 'm claustrophobic about life . I ca n't stand being shut in , I have to get out , that 's why I ca n't have a normal life . Deep down , my flaw is no doubt that I do n't love normal life . " To a certain extent , that 's a good thing : the life of someone who wants to -- and does -- become president of the republic can not be normal . And the interaction you have with him ca n't be normal either . But I do n't let up , and go at the question from another angle . Philippe Besson , a French writer who knows him well , wrote @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , or " a character from a novel " , which contains the following description : " This man , so warm , so physical , who knows so many people and whom so many people know , has no friends . " Is that true ? I ask . He 'll go on to answer that it 's not exactly true , that although he has few real friends , he does have some , and that his private life is absolutely essential for him . But before he says these reasonable things , before reflecting at all , he blurts out : " My best friend is my wife ! " It 's tempting to see Macron as a sort of cyborg , a seducing machine completely void of emotion . It 's tempting , but no sooner has it occurred to you than you 're obliged to think the opposite . Because there 's no getting around the fact that the young , ambitious technocrat , the man who tells everyone what they want to hear , is also , at the same time , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ story is what the French like most about him , particularly French women . It 's a kind of revenge for centuries of patriarchy during which everyone found it normal for a man to be 24 years older than his wife , but not the other way around . And , taking this breach of convention to the extreme , the woman who is 24 years older than him seems perfectly at ease , and her husband loves her as much as he did when they first met . Let 's go over the file once again , from this almost mythological angle : Brigitte Auzi ? re is from a solid , provincial , upper-middle class background , she 's married to a banker ( not an investment banker ) , and is the mother of three children . A French teacher , she 's just been assigned to the Lyc ? e la Providence , a Catholic school run by Jesuits in Amiens . In the staff room , all talk focuses on one pupil who dazzles everyone with his knowledge and intelligence : the young Macron @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ well-established , upper middle-class household , and his parents are both doctors . He 's good looking , with a pleasant manner and longish hair , and he 's more comfortable in the company of his elders than he is with his classmates . Madame Auzi ? re teaches a theatre class . He enrolls , and falls head over heels in love with her . It takes him two years to win her heart . " You 're not serious when you 're 17 " , runs a poem by Rimbaud . And , quoting the poet as she tells the story , she says with a laugh : " He was very serious when he was 17 . " He was very serious when he convinced her that this was the love of their lives , and that she should leave her family to be with him . A high-school student who falls in love with his pretty teacher and ardently pledges his love to her is n't all that rare . What 's rarer is when , 22 years later , the high school student and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ school student is president of France . I observe them on the flight to Athens . They 're in the central block of the Falcon 7X jet , and from what I can see from where I 'm sitting three metres away , they touch each other non-stop . If he gets up to go to the toilet , he squeezes her shoulder in passing . He smiles at her , she lifts her head and smiles back . Their eyes seek each other out , find each other , often they hold hands . It 's remarkable , moving even . But still : they display this intense closeness , this insatiable need for each other , as if they were forever posing for celebrity magazines . So you wonder : is some of this for show ? Carefully staged storytelling ? Maybe , but what would it be masking ? What truth ? What pact ? When everything looks so harmonious on the surface , you ca n't help looking for the catch . At the same time , it seems clear that you ca n't fake @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not all the time . You can go back and forth endlessly about how much of Macron 's personality is authentic and how much is cooked up , but you need only see him and his wife together for half an hour to know that part of him is as true as can be , and that this element of truth is her . I sat with Brigitte Macron on the way back from Athens , and started off our discussion on quite a bad note , because I was still puzzling over the question of flaws and melancholy . Clearly her husband views his life in terms of destiny , I said . That 's true , she confirmed . But since any real destiny must imply adversity and even defeat , I went on , I wondered what form adversity and defeat could take in the life of someone like Emmanuel Macron , and how she , his wife , imagined the proverbial retreat from Russia that necessarily awaited him -- because if such a fate did n't await him , he would not be a great @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with my gloomy , interminable question , the more Brigitte 's face , usually so open and buoyant , showed signs of dismay . But she 's not someone to succumb to a passing mood for long . Glasses of champagne arrived just in time : it was the birthday of Tristan , one of her young staffers . At her prompting everyone burst into a chorus of " Happy birthday to you ! " After that she said to Tristan , with a laugh and a shake of her blond hair : " We 're your present ! " , and it struck me that that must have gone down just as well in her classes in Amiens . She had been one of those teachers that students love , to the point of hanging around after class to talk about Stendhal or Flaubert . Even though she 's retired , she remains a teacher , and accepts with a smile that she 's a bit of a pedant . Where others would say " I do n't want to talk in my husband 's place " , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : " I do n't like prosopopoeia . " ( Just in case you do n't know , prosopopoeia is a figure of speech in which an absent person , or even an abstract thing , speaks . ) Coming back to my question , she let me know kindly that both she and her husband faced their share of adversity . " I ca n't honestly say we 've had to deal with defeat , but we 've had our share of adversity . To live a love like ours , we 've had to harden ourselves against malicious remarks , mockery and gossip . We 've had to stand shoulder to shoulder , be courageous and joyful . " And she was joyful when she said it , just as joyful -- and likable -- as everyone told me she would be . ( Everyone loves her . ) To wind up our conversation , she told me a charming story about her theatre class . She and the young Macron are looking for a play to stage together . There 's one they like , by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ demanding choice . The problem is that the play only has five characters , and there are 25 students in the class . No problem : the young Macron rewrites it , inventing the 20 missing roles . They still have a video of the performance that Brigitte would like to watch one day -- but , she says , her husband has asked her to wait so they can view it together . Read more Like many people I know , I 've witnessed three phases with Macron . During the campaign , I thought : " Something 's happening . " When the elections rolled around , I thought : " I 'd like to see him win . " At the same time , I knew that my vote was a class vote : it was normal for privileged people to vote for Macron . And now that he 's in power , I think : " It would be good if @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ That he makes history ? That he transforms France ? That he turns it into a country of startups where everyone is their own entrepreneur , and the only thing that matters is efficiency ? And that after that , he transforms Europe , because at some point France is just going to seem too small for him ? All of that is possible . Or rather : not impossible . He could also go crazy -- that 's a risk you run when you get so much power so fast . Or , quite simply , he could fail , and join the crowd of ambitious politicians who sought the " third way " , stumbled over messy reality , and wound up administrating like everyone else . That 's his big worry , I believe . That 's what makes him say : " If I do n't radically transform France , it 'll be worse than if I did nothing at all .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'make a fortune out of charging them WTO tariffs on importing their goods' does not involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a general outcome of a situation, not a causative action with a specific means and effect.

Her reasonable request to go back with a deal she could defend to the British people echoes David Cameron 's plea for concessions he could sell to the nation to head off the need for a referendum on membership . In February 2016 , the spectacle of Mr Cameron turning up at Brussels with his begging bowl asking for changes to our terms of EU membership was bad enough -- and did no favours for his Remain campaign . But the fact is his personal campaign to get the EU to frame more acceptable terms had begun three years before . Then the EU stalled , presuming his coalition government might not last and he certainly might not win the following election . When Cameron pulled off a surprise victory and Ukip bagged four million votes , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a little more deeply about giving him some movement on a more British version of EU membership . And then when Cameron delivered on his election pledge to hold a referendum , surely alarm bells should have started ringing and presumably expert negotiators must have been given a kick up the backside by President of the European Council Donald Tusk to deliver something more significant ? But despite kowtowing to numerous EU members , Cameron came home with very little . He wanted the UK to opt out of ever closer union , a red card to block EU proposals , but this depended on building alliances within the EU . He wanted to cut back on EU migrants claiming benefits but Poland and other Eastern European members managed to get this watered down . He wanted to cut Brussels red tape to make business more competitive and although this was written into a draft deal , I do n't think anyone believed the EU would deliver on that . GETTY Theresa May held at the European Council meetings on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ negotiations to Parliament , many MPs were underwhelmed . Jacob Rees-Mogg declared " the thin gruel has been further watered down " . Boris Johnson went further as the referendum approached , saying " the Prime Minister asked the EU for reform and got two-thirds of diddly squat " . If the EU had been only a little more accommodating then , many Brits might not have voted Leave . As for the big issue that had underpinned the general election in 2015 , that voters were fed up with uncontrolled mass migration , that was never even on the table . A halt to freedom of movement was incompatible with membership of the EU , was the unbending response . GETTY Cameron turned up to EU meeting with his ' begging bowl ' , Newark said The EU simply crossed its fingers and trusted to the UK establishment 's Project Fear to deliver the right response -- and that 's still their attitude now . By dragging their feet on Brexit negotiations they hope that Tory infighting and a devious Labour party @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ establishment , will bring Theresa May 's government crashing down before a deal needs to be signed off . As Brussels bureaucrats sit on their hands , British Remoaners are doing a tragically brilliant job of undermining Brexit negotiations . As anyone in business knows , the first thing to learn about deal making is that you must be prepared to walk away from the table . Instead too many politicians of all parties are only too willing to flag up what an apparent disaster that scenario would be . Even our Chancellor made it very clear that he did n't really want to budget for a no-deal situation . EU negotiators must be laughing all the way to the European Central Bank as they ramp up their demands for an EU financial settlement off the back of this division.It is vital that David Davis presents an upbeat vision of leaving the EU without a deal . Business leaders such as James Dyson have already made it clear that there is nothing to fear from crashing out of the EU . Dyson already pays WTO tariffs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ manufactured outside the EU , and says " it has not hurt us at all -- we 're one of the fastest growing companies in Europe " . He says we do n't need a transition period and , as the EU sells us more than we sell it , we 'll make a fortune out of charging them WTO tariffs on importing their goods . Rather than adopting the craven , dealseeking attitude of her Florence speech , Theresa May should have kept it simple and declared we 're leaving in March 2019 and that the ball is in the EU court . Offer us a deal or we walk . Fri , October 20 , 2017 Emmanuel Macron holds a press conference on the second day of European Council meetings The liberal media and Remainer MPs would have reacted in horror but the voters who supported Leave would have cheered her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ David Cameron in February 2016 and we know where that got him . Despite seeing an unsettling shift to the extreme Right in recent elections in Germany and Austria , the EU continues to believe it is doing nothing wrong and instead declares we all need more EU , not less . As Cameron found out , there is little you can say to this delusional group of EU fanatics and their arrogant intransigence will be the trigger to bring down the whole project . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes a group emerging out of growing concern, which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move or preventing them from an action. The phrase 'out of growing concern' is a prepositional phrase indicating origin or reason, not a VP[-ing] predicate with a movement or prevention interpretation.

The deaths of four US soldiers killed in Niger were at the centre of a political storm this week . The row , sparked by the president 's remarks , drew in bereaved families , Gen John Kelly , and military veterans Myeshia Johnson cries over the casket of her husband , Sgt La David Johnson , who was killed in an ambush in Niger . Photograph : AP The deaths of four US soldiers killed in Niger were at the centre of a political storm this week . The row , sparked by the president 's remarks , drew in bereaved families , Gen John Kelly , and military veterans It was a crisp autumnal day in Washington : perfect for an impromptu press conference in the White House rose garden . Reporters hastily gathered to see Donald Trump and Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell try to muster a united front . At first all was going swimmingly . Then , not entirely unsurprisingly , the US president tossed a verbal grenade @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had not spoken personally about soldiers killed in an ambush in Niger 12 days previously -- the deadliest combat incident of his presidency so far -- Trump replied peevishly : " If you look at President Obama and other presidents , most of them did n't make calls -- a lot of them did n't make calls . " Former attorney general Eric Holder tweeted that it was time for Trump to " stop the damn lying " . Alyssa Mastromonaco , a deputy chief of staff in the Obama administration , went further , tweeting that Trump 's claim was " a fucking lie " and calling the president a " a deranged animal " . That was Monday . The events that followed would raise fresh questions about Trump 's chequered relationship with the military . A commander-in-chief who has wrapped himself in the flag , surrounded himself with generals and anointed himself a champion of the men and women in uniform is also a man who avoided the draft for the Vietnam war and picks fights with veterans and grieving parents and widows . Read more " I have n't slept this week , " said Pamela Campos , 30 , a former operations intelligence analyst in the US air force . " For someone who never served himself , the president is very flippant about the deaths of our loved ones . You can tell when he tries to align himself with the military it 's a photo op to make himself look patriotic . It feels like stolen valour . " On Tuesday , Trump dragged his chief of staff John Kelly , a retired Marines general whose son died in Afghanistan , into the row . " You could ask Gen Kelly , did he get a call from Obama ? " he said in a radio interview . It was quickly pointed out that Kelly had been a guest at a May 2011 breakfast for gold star families at which he and his wife were seated at first lady Michelle Obama 's table . Kelly later confirmed that he had not received a call from Obama , but clarified that presidents did not always reach @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to write letters . On the same day , Trump himself finally called the families of the soldiers killed in Niger . He spoke to Myeshia Johnson , the pregnant widow of Sgt La David Johnson . It emerged via Democratic congresswoman Frederica Wilson that the president said Johnson " knew what he was signing up for " . Trump calls for a question in the Rose Garden . Photograph : Alex Brandon/AP Wilson , who was riding in the family 's car and heard the condolence call on speakerphone , described the remarks as " so insensitive " . Trump said Wilson " totally fabricated " her version of events . But Johnson 's mother endorsed Wilson 's account , saying : " President Trump did disrespect my son and my daughter and also me and my husband . " On Wednesday , White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Kelly was " disgusted and frustrated " by the way his son 's death has become politicised -- even though it was Trump who first mentioned him . Meanwhile the Washington Post interviewed a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump had called and promised to send him $25,000 from his personal account , but the cheque never arrived . It was sent on the day the story emerged . On Thursday , Kelly himself strode to the podium in the White House briefing room and delivered a raw monologue about the pain of sacrifice . But he refused to call on reporters who did not have a connection to a gold star family . He did not deny what Trump said on the call but accused Wilson of taking credit in 2015 for securing funding for an FBI building in Miami . " Even for someone that is that empty a barrel , we were stunned " by her speech , he said . Read more Wilson responded that she was not even a member of Congress when the money was secured . The South Florida Sun Sentinel published a video that supported her version of the nine-minute speech and contradicted Kelly 's . It showed that Wilson @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ recount at length her efforts to help name the building in honor of the special agents . On Friday , press secretary Sanders insisted Kelly had been telling the truth and said that it would be " highly inappropriate " to question a four-star general . That caused outcry in itself . Wilson , who is African American , argued that Kelly 's " empty barrel " slight was racist . The Johnson family are also African American . Trump has a long record of racially charged actions and statements including his claim that " both sides " were to blame for deadly violence at a white supremacist march in Charlottesville , Virginia . On Saturday , the day of Sgt Johnson 's funeral , Trump refused to let the matter rest . " I hope the Fake News Media keeps talking about Wacky Congresswoman Wilson , " he tweeted . " ... She , as a representative , is killing the Democrat Party ! " Trump also has a strained history with the military . When @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ York Military Academy , a private boarding school , and seemed to thrive on the discipline and opportunity to play sport . But he did not serve in Vietnam , instead receiving five deferments -- four for university , one for the medical reason of bone spurs in his heels -- from the military draft . In the 1990s he told Howard Stern , the radio show host , that avoiding sexually transmitted diseases while dating " is my personal Vietnam " . Former students who knew him at the military academy recognize Trump 's notorious divisiveness . Some are sympathetic . Peter Ticktin , 71 , who was there with him for a year , said of this week 's controversy : " It is such nonsense . Anyone who is n't hellbent on hating him kind of knows what the truth is . There is no way Donald would call up a grieving family and do anything other than try to make their lives better . He 's never been a person without empathy . The man 's not crazy , not evil : he 's a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ love in his heart that people do n't understand Peter Ticktin , New York Military Academy classmate Former president Bill Clinton wrote to an army officer in 1969 thanking him for " saving me from the draft " ; George W Bush remained stateside in the air national guard . Trump 's non-service has been overplayed , Ticktin contends . " When we came of age to be drafted , they were not taking people who were flat-footed or would have trouble marching due to bone spurs , so what are you supposed to do ? " Ticktin also received a deferment for medical reasons because of a circulatory problem . He did not want to fight in Vietnam and believes that Trump felt the same way . Trump has subsequently said he thinks the US engagement in Vietnam was " ridiculous " . Now a lawyer in Boca Raton , Florida , Ticktin last spoke to Trump just after his election win . " I think he has true love in his heart that people do n't understand , " he added . " When @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hippie . He loves people and , when it comes to the troops defending our country , he 's 100% behind them . I know him and he 's not false on anything . He just happens to be a good person trying to do the right thing and the best thing that can be done . He does n't like losers and cowards but he appreciates bravery and winners and that 's the military . " Read more Mike Pitkow , 68 , from Hilltown Township in Pennsylvania , who also encountered Trump at military academy , takes a very different view . He said : " Everything he does disgusts me with his inability to act presidential and perform anything of value in his role . Almost everything he says is complete bullshit : there 's no substance to any of his statements . I feel badly for the military in terms of , ' what an embarrassment ' . He does n't deserve that kind of authority and rank . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pushed for a 10% increase in military spending while slashing billions from non-defence programmes . His administration includes Kelly ; James Mattis , defense secretary and retired Marines general ; and national security adviser HR McMaster , still a uniformed lieutenant-general in the army . Trump revels in set-piece occasions , donning a navy flight jacket and matching cap on an aircraft carrier , and admiring a military parade in Paris so much that he proposed similar in Washington . Yet he has also exaggerated his donations to veterans groups , claimed America 's generals were " reduced to rubble " under Barack Obama and mocked Senator John McCain , a prisoner of war in Vietnam , saying he prefers war heroes who were not captured . Last year Trump clashed with a Muslim gold star family when he attacked Khizr Khan , whose son was killed in Iraq and who electrified the Democratic national convention with a speech while brandishing the US constitution . He 's a pathological liar and his words have no credibility Khizr Khan Khan this week expressed his condolences to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ They ought to be respected with measured words and the most dignified sentiments . That is the tradition of this nation and anything else undignifies the presidency . " Khan gives short shrift to Trump 's claims to be pro-military . " He 's a pathological liar and his words have no credibility . He has maligned Senator McCain many times . I 'm surprised his surrogates have not sat him down to coach him how to conduct himself on matters that do not require politics or partisanship . " The gravesite of Capt Humayun Khan is shown at Arlington National Cemetary . Photograph : Mark Wilson/Getty Images Exit polls suggested veterans voted for Trump by about a two-to-one margin . In April , 54% of those who have served in the military approved of his job performance , according to the Pew Research Center . His strongest demographic -- older white men -- features heavily among veterans . But some have become outspoken against what they see as his attempt to expropriate and manipulate the armed forces for his own @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a medic in Afghanistan with the 82nd Airborne Division and was discharged as a conscientious objector in 2004 , said of this week 's events : " Everyone I know in the veteran community is deeply offended and unsettled . I think Donald Trump is hitting a new low . He already has a record of abuse and exploitation and mistreatment of the veteran community . " My military friends are aghast that someone who has never served the country in a meaningful way would tell the grieving family that their loved one knew what he was signing up for . For those of us who have attended military funerals and lost someone , it 's sickening . If it did n't have such grave consequences for our country and men and women in uniform , the hypocrisy would be comical .

Brandon Friedman , an ex-infantry officer in the 101st Airborne Division who served in both Afghanistan and Iraq , said : " How can you be the president of the United States and find yourself arguing with the families of those killed in action and be accusing them of lying ? I feel like I 'm taking crazy pills . " He never served in the military -- he got deferments from Vietnam -- yet he goes to the military as his first course of action and threatens to bomb .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate.

And today 's setback at Bramall Lane against the third-placed Blades will do little to ease the pressure on Stam . The Reading boss made two changes from the side that won at Leeds a week earlier as Elland Road goalscorer Mo Barrow replaced the injured Bodvarsson and Tyler Blackett came in for Garath McCleary . John Swift and Paul McShane also returned from injury to take their place on the bench , but Stam decided not to risk fit-again striker Yann Kermorgant as he continues his recovery from surgery in the summer . Stam also tweaked his formation and went five at the back with Leandro Bacuna and Blackett operating as wing backs . It was from a free-kick conceded by Blackett that Sheffield created their first chance in only the second minute , with Jack O'Connell heading over from Mark Duffy 's delivery . But seven minutes later Royals went even closer as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ behind for a corner . Liam Moore was then only inches away from meeting Beerens ' superb flag-kick . O'Connell 's busy start continued and the Blades man tested Royals keeper Vito Mannone from another corner with 13 minutes gone . Two minutes later Leon Clarke fired wide from an Enda Stevens assist , but the hosts did break the deadlock with 19 minutes on the clock . Sone Aluko coughed up possession in his own half and , when Royals only half-cleared the resulting attack , Coutts smacked a left-footed drive past a helpless Mannone and into the top corner from the edge of the box . Royals remained under the cosh and it took a vital block by skipper Chris Gunter four minutes later to thwart O'Connell . But Stam 's men gave themselves a mountain to climb when they conceded a second in the 37th minute . Again , Reading 's defence was all at sea when Duffy picked out Sharp with an inviting cross to the back post , giving the former Royals loanee a simple finish from close range @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the break , but the closest they went was from a Beerens 20-yarder that skidded narrowly wide . There was a little change after the break as Sheffield United almost grabbed a third goal nine minutes into the second half . Duffy won a free-kick on the right before pumping the ball into the area . Sharp looked certain to score with a close-range header only for Mannone to pull off a stunning save . Stam had seen enough , but his first substitution on 55 minutes baffled many as he replaced Blackett with centre-back McShane at a time when Royals were desperate for a goal . Then 10 minutes Stam took off the attack-minded Aluko and sent on Swift for his first appearance in five games . Chances , though , were few and far between for the visitors with a glancing McShane header from Gunter 's centre one of the rare opportunities of note . But Stam 's men grabbed a lifeline almost out of nothing with six minutes to go . Swift , who was beginning to pull the strings , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ picked out Beerens with a low cross the Dutchman comfortably tucked away . Reading piled on the pressure in the closing stages without creating much , while United almost snatched a third on the break when Mannone denied Clarke in injury time . The silky , cameo performance of Swift and the imminent comeback of last season 's 19-goal top scorer Kermorgant certainly raise hopes of Reading fighting their way out of trouble . But results must quickly improve for the Royals or further questions will be asked of Stam .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses the intransitive verb 'came' with no NP object, and the phrase 'out of broadcasting' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Kourtney Kardashian has opened up about the birth of her kids , as she wishes she 'd never aired the moment on TV . The 38-year-old admitted in an interview with Grazia that when it comes to regrets of being in the public eye , she said that -- well , first of all , if she thought about regrets too much she 'd go crazy , but she really wishes she 'd kept the birth of her babies to just a family affair . But the best thing that came out of broadcasting the birth of her son Mason on Keeping Up With The Kardashians in 2009 was revealed to her one day whilst in the waiting room at her doctor 's . ' The first thing that comes to mind is sharing the birth of my kids on the show .

It was to prove how beautiful and calm and not people screaming at the top of their lungs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I was so scared before I gave birth , but I had a beautiful experience .

Kourtney was with the father of her three kids , Scott Disick , from 2006 to 2016 , but has been seeing new boyfriend , 24-year-old Younes Bendjima , who she started dating at the end of last year . Kourtney has been dating Younes for almost a year ( Picture : GC Images ) At the end of the day , Kourtney says , it 's important for people to remember that ' we 're human ' . She says the only way her and the Kardashian Krew can stay sane is to not pay attention to what people say about them , otherwise the pressure would just be too crazy . |

All Blacks coach Steve Hansen has expressed surprise at Warren Gatland 's comments that he ' hated ' the British and Irish Lions tour of New Zealand and told him to get out of coaching if he did not like the scrutiny he was put under . Gatland 's Lions drew the series with the All Blacks 1-1 earlier this year , but the New Zealander has since told British media that he hated the tour , the local media and the ' negativity ' in his homeland . Criticism from players like Ireland flanker Sean O'Brien and England loose forward Billy Vunipola , who withdrew from the squad due to injury , had also convinced Gatland not to be involved with the Lions again . Ireland flanker Sean O'Brien , here shaking hands with Warren Gatland during the Lions tour , has since criticised the New Zealander 's coaching methods ' I 've only just heard it ( Gatland 's comments ) because I do n't read too much about what coaches are saying and doing , ' Hansen told Radio Sport on Wednesday . ' Why would you hate coaching the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it . I love coaching any team I 've been involved in - that 's the reason I 'm doing it . ' I 'm lucky enough to coach the All Blacks , which is fantastic , if you are lucky enough to coach the Lions it is also fantastic . ' Hansen added the scrutiny that Gatland said he encountered was the same he would receive if he ever got the opportunity to coach the All Blacks and would need to learn to deal with it . Gatland 's contract with Wales ends after the 2019 Rugby World Cup in Japan and he has been tipped as a potential candidate to replace Hansen , who is contracted until early 2020 . ' Welcome to our world , ' Hansen said . ' You are under constant pressure , constant scrutiny . People expect you to be able to front up and do the job well . ' In the All Blacks ' case , we are expected to win every test match and win it well . ' You @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ your own inner expectations to be even higher . It drives that necessity to want to always be better . ' Steve Hansen oversees All Blacks training last week ahead of their defeat by Australia The All Blacks leave on Friday for their end-of-season tour to Europe , which ends with a test against Gatland 's Wales . While Hansen 's team were unbeaten in the Rugby Championship , they have been enigmatic this season and have already lost two matches in the same year for the first time since he took control in 2012 . Hansen , however , said he expected the team to rebound next year with the experience gained by several fringe players and that the side would be aided by the return of several players from long-term injuries . ' We 've got some trying circumstances at the moment with nine or 10 players out . That 's on top of losing all that legendary talent after the World Cup - that 's over 50 percent of your team , ' he said .

AFP or licensors Supporters of Catalan independence are gearing up for resistance against Madrid 's planned takeover of regional powers Plana , writing in War on the Rocks , claims politicians must not underestimate the danger of the stand-off disintegrating into armed conflict . She says Madrid 's authority was weakened in Catalonia when local cops refused to disrupt the referendum vote and regional politicians ignored orders from the national government - which could give hope to hard-line separatists . And Spain 's shaky economy , especially the fact that Catalonians resent paying more in tax than they get back in investment , is another concern . The region represents a fifth of Spain 's GDP and there is anger that the population pay more taxes to central government than are returned to the area . She said : " In perhaps the most alarming parallel to Yugoslavia @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and an independent Catalonia could be just the first of many dominoes to fall .

FROM a Carabao Cup canter at 2-0 up , Spurs were dumped out of it , as Premier League strugglers West Ham recovered to score three goals and reach the quarter finals . No team had won away at Spurs after being 2-0 down since February 2004 , and coach Mauricio Pochettino lamented how his side had lost their focus in the second half . " We allowed them ( West Ham ) to get back in the game , as we had the first half under control , " he said afterwards . ' Poch ' made 7 changes from the Sunday demolition of Liverpool , with Danny Rose making his first start since the end of January . There was also another cup start for 19 year old Argentine , Juan Foyth at centre half . Harry Kane was unsurprisingly rested , meaning Fernando Llorente joined Heung-Min Song in attack .

Alli made no mistake however on 37 minutes , when his deflected curler put Spurs in complete control . ' Two nil in your Cup Final ' chimed the home crowd billeted in the lower tiers of a half empty Wembley . At this stage , there was just no inkling that the West Ham players would have the fight and the belief that they could get back into the game . The early stages of the second half seemed to be drifting into a deep sleep , with Spurs two goal lead safely locked away . But then out of nothing , West Ham pulled a goal back on 55 minutes thanks to Andre Ayew . Forth conceded a corner , which was n't cleared . Edimilson Fernandes shot straight at Michel Vorm , who could only parry to an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Suddenly there were ' bubbles ' everywhere , as the away fans sensed something .

Straight down the other end , Alli volleyed straight at Adrian . The game was a proper match-up for the first time and the crowd noise was cranked up a notch or three . With another West Ham corner , Pochettino summoned Moussa Dembele from the bench , but by the time the Belgian was on the pitch , Spurs had yet again capitulated at a corner and were losing . On 70 minutes , Angelo Ogbonna leapt unmarked to head past Vorm . From 2-0 down , the Hammers had smashed their way into a 3-2 lead . " In the first half , it was like the game was over , but you just ca n't allow your opponent to get back in the game , " reasoned Pochettino . " 2-0 and you ' messed ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fans were stunned into silence , save for the odd bang of frustration from a fist on a nearby fence . Christian Eriksen joined Dembele up front , as Spurs scrambled to force extra time .

You sensed West Ham were n't going to lose this now There was urgency of sorts from the home side , but more from the Spurs fans . With four minutes of injury up , Spurs were beaten . What was supposed to have been yet another morale boosting Wembley win , turned out to show another season without the League Cup in the Spurs trophy cabinet . And that will irk Spurs supporters .

In normal circumstances , a celebrity falling through a hole in a stage in front of 10,000 people would provide between eight and 10 hours ' worth of timeline frenzy .

The Bulgarian forward played for clubs such as Bayer Leverkusen , Tottenham Hotspur , Fulham and Monaco across an 18-year career in Europe . But Berbatov , who recently signed for Kerala Blasters in the Indian Super League , reached the pinnacle of his career at Manchester United . The 36-year-old spent four years at Old Trafford , after joining from Spurs for ? 30m in 2008 . Berbatov helped United win two league titles and he finished top scorer in the 2010/11 season with 20 league goals . The Bulgarian netted a famous hat-trick against Liverpool that season and got five goals at home to Blackburn Rovers , as the club clinched their 19th league title . Berbatov was n't the most prolific striker when at United , despite getting 20 goals that season , but he was a fantastic footballer , gifted with wonderful close control and vision that few other players possess . The Bulgarian strolled around the pitch , barely breaking a sweat @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . But he had the intelligence to know exactly when to make a decisive intervention , and the technique to make the most difficult of skills look simple . It 's a shame the Premier League wo n't let us show you his assist for Cristiano Ronaldo against West Ham in 2008 , because it was incredible . During a wide-ranging interview with Andy Mitten on ESPN , Berbatov covers a range of topics , including his former teammate Ronaldo . He says that , out of everything , it was Ronaldo 's work ethic that stood out during their season together at Old Trafford , before the Portuguese forward left for Real Madrid in 2009 . " Young players try and imitate the best players like Ronaldo , " Berbatov said . " They try to imitate the hair , the clothes , the cars , the tricks . I try to tell them how hard Cristiano Ronaldo trained in training and after training . He only wanted to be the best . Everything else came after . Players should n't try and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ professional . Ronaldo was fine in our dressing room . He could take a joke and Patrice Evra was doing jokes , but he was serious when he played . I was shy , quiet and used to watch all of this . " Berbatov also spoke about Ronaldo 's rival Lionel Messi . The Bulgarian praised both players , but considers the Barcelona forward to be ahead of his former United teammate . Berbatov conceded that , in the 2009 Champions League final when Barcelona beat United 2-0 in Rome and Messi scored , he was the decisive played on the night . " Because he 's the f***ing greatest . Ronaldo is brilliant , Messi more my kind of player . He sees the game so clearly . He can score , create , he 's the complete player , the best ever probably . If you ask someone older than me they will say Pele , Maradona or Puskas or Di Stefano . But for my generation it 's Messi or Ronaldo . They 're pretty much even , but something with Messi makes me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Barcelona on television . " Berbatov also reflected on the United team he joined , and said that he realised straight away how special the side was . " When I stood in the tunnel as a Manchester United player , I saw Cristiano Ronaldo , Wayne Rooney , Ryan Giggs , Paul Scholes , Gary Neville , Nemanja Vidic , Rio Ferdinand , Patrice Evra , Edwin van der Sar . I said to myself : ' Berba , you need to cherish this moment forever , my friend . ' And then I looked at the opponents . They were already beaten . " |

Television 's new crush Morven Christie is making a career out of being a very difficult woman . But the star of such hugely successful shows as the BBC 's The Replacement , ITV 's Grantchester and the new series of the critically acclaimed The A Word is extremely happy about her reputation as a tough cookie . ' I play women that a lot of people think of as absolute bitches , ' she laughs as we sit down in a quiet booth at a west London hotel restaurant . ' But that 's not who they are to me -- they are proper reflections of real women . I 've never wanted to play the pretty girlfriend prop role because that 's just completely patronising in my mind . ' Women are complicated -- they can be strong , tough , soft , smart , challenging and everything rolled into one . We 're not always nice and smiley , or the sexual fantasy -- I 'm definitely not . ' In Grantchester , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to falling in love with James Norton ( ' clearly the only woman in Britain who ca n't , ' she says ) , who plays besotted Reverend Sidney Chambers . In Twenty Twelve she starred as manipulative head of legacy , Fi Healey , and in hit psychological drama The Replacement , she was Ellen , determined not to be outshone by her maternity cover , Paula ( Vicky McClure ) . Next up , in The A Word , she reprises her role as ultra-protective mum Alison Hughes , desperate to help her son , Joe , now seven , deal with his autism , regardless of the cost to her friends and the rest of the family . The series , set in the Lake District , written by Peter Bowker and returning to our screens next month , got a massive reaction from television audiences for both its sensitive portrayal of autism and the bullish way Morven , as Alison , dealt with the issue . She battled with other mums at school , fought with her husband ( Lee Ingleby ) , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Joe , and was oblivious to the traumas of her teenage daughter . In The A Word with Molly Wright , Max Vento ( who plays Joe ) and Lee InglebyCredit : BBC After the series aired , she was stopped in the street by people telling her they wanted to slap Alison . There was a similar reaction with The Replacement . She frowns : ' Judgement of women is always harsh . Alpha men are seen as tough and exciting . Alpha women are seen always as a threat . ' I was shocked that a lot of people had a problem with Alison . There was so much vitriol directed towards her , which I did n't expect because I saw her simply as a woman who felt it was up to her to find out what was wrong with her son , and try to make him happy . ' It 's true she did n't care if she upset people but that was because she saw her son as the one in need . She was frantic to sort things out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and she was basically terrified because he was different . But she loved him absolutely and she could n't always see straight , which is what happens in those situations . I love her fierceness , her strength and I felt for her as a woman . She does n't hide who she is and she refuses to bow down to social conventions . ' I never wanted to play the pretty girlfriend prop role because that 's just patronising Although not difficult herself , there is a thread between the single-minded Alison and Morven , who put distance between herself and her peers at school in Glasgow from the age of 11 . Born in rural Helensburgh , Morven and her family later moved to a Glasgow council estate , where she immediately felt isolated . Her father was a drama teacher-turned-lighting engineer and her mother , an occupational therapist . ' To the kids on the council estate we were posh , but to posh people we were from a council estate , ' she says . ' I had a problem with that perception @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a problem with school . Once I started secondary school , I just did n't like it . I did n't want to join in with all the different groups -- the cool kids , the clever kids , the sporty kids . I felt very separate from everyone else . I did n't like being told what to think in lessons or told what to read and what to write . ' Rather startlingly , she came up with her own solution . By the age of 15 , she had just stopped going to school . Every morning she would get dressed in her uniform and then , after her parents left for work , she would stay at home . She missed 87 days before truancy officers were notified and her parents alerted to her behaviour .

I remember writing in my book report that I 'd read lots of plays and the teacher telling me I had n't , which just made me think the whole idea of school was pointless . ' By the time the truancy officers were called in , her school was threatening not to allow her to take her Standard Grade exams . ' My parents were more horrified that the school had n't noticed I 'd missed so much time . ' They were n't angry with me , they just felt very shocked and sad that I 'd done what I 'd done . But the urgent issue was for them to get the school to let me sit my exams she got excellent grades in all subjects , which became a big hoo-ha . ' Then I left as soon as I was 16 and legally able to . My parents were OK with it because they knew I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ anti-school as a rule , but I do think prescriptive education is not for everyone and that is just a fact .

Three years later she was hit by the realisation she wanted to act . She is compelling company . Nothing she says is either expected or ill-thought-out , and there is a sense of absolute sincerity and singularity that makes her both irreverent ( last year she tweeted a link to Benedict Cumberbatch talking about how having children does not negatively hinder your career with the remark : ' Relax girls ' ) and very likeable . Her best friend in the acting world is Replacement rival Vicky McClure . ' I always liked her because she just does her thing , lives in Nottingham , does great work and there 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ totally hit it off . We have the same resting bitch face . ' Morven 's pet grievance about the theatre world is ' the predominance of privately educated posh boys ' and her ambition is to ' do drama that says something about real people with real lives ' . The new series of The A Word focuses on what happens to the family now that Joe ( played by Max Vento ) can no longer get by in a mainstream school . In terms of research , Morven relies less on speaking to mothers of autistic children and more on her own emotional response . At the 2016 British Academy Television Craft Awards in LondonCredit : Getty images ' In life we are hit by issues . We are not experts on them before they happen and I try to stay close to that .

Taken by Malcolm Blackburn , 79 , the picture beat off hundreds of entries to claim the top prize in the Wonders of Wildlife competition . The dust cloud was produced when the nervous animals shuffled off after spotting Mr Blackburn edging towards them This magnificent grizzly bear was pictured making its move on a salmon leaping out of fast-flowing rapids in the wilds of Alaska . British photographer Nick Dale was highly commended for the shot . He described the annual salmon migration as an ' all-you-can-eat buffet ' for bears , who take the opportunity to strike when the fish are swimming upstream Awesome : This awe-inspiring picture captured the stunning moment polar bear cubs suckled on their mother in sub-zero temperatures in Hudson Bay , Canada .

It was taken by photographer Cliff Hughes ' When the bear is at the right place at the right time , dinner is served . ' He added : ' This brown bear with shaggy , brown fur is about to catch a salmon in its mouth at the top of Brooks Falls , Alaska . The fish is only a few inches away from its gaping jaws . ' It did end up as dinner . ' Another fish being consumed by a slightly smaller animal was this greedy grebe gulping down its food by Chris Hughes which was also highly commended .

His picture of zebras at dawn @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ prize . Mr Blackburn , from Derbyshire , said : ' It was our last day at at the Zimanga Game Reserve , situated in KwaZulu Natal , South Africa . ' We came across a group of plains zebras about 6am on a very dry area . ' As we slowly drove towards them , they became nervous and moved off slowly , raising a significant dust cloud with the sun behind them giving this magical aurora effect . ' This eye-catching picture of three flying foxes - the largest bats in the world - was highly commended . It was taken in a Spanish zoo by Peruvian Pedro Jarque Krebs .

The 66-year-old retired geography teacher said : ' The picture was taken on the frozen shoreline at minus 24 degrees when the pack-ice is starting to form . ' Animal behaviour is so important as it gives a glimpse into their lives and often shows compassion and the basic animal instincts we all have . ' Luck was on our side as this sow came towards us and then suddenly sat down in the willows and allowed her two cubs to suckle - not a frequent sight .

Northern Ireland 's politicians have just hours left to reach a deal to restore powersharing at Stormont otherwise the UK Government will press ahead with legislation to approve a budget . The parties have been warned they must reach agreement by the end of Monday or else Northern Ireland Secretary of State James Brokenshire will be forced to introduce a budget via Westminster . On Friday , talks between the DUP and Sinn Fein paused for the weekend , without an agreement being reached . SDLP leader Colum Eastwood has said that if a deal is not reached by today 's deadline , his party will not accept direct rule from Westminster but only joint rule from both London and Dublin . He said : " As I set out in January this year , I want to again make clear that a return to direct rule from London is wholly unacceptable . " It would be a significant and serious breach of our political accommodation in the North and therefore must not be the automatic and the only fall-back option . " Mr Eastwood added : " In the absence of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's two traditions falls on both the Irish and British Governments . " Maintaining that balance means that the alternative to direct rule is the joint stewardship of the North by the two governments . " Alliance MLA Stephen Farry called on Mr Brokenshire to explore other options before direct rule is introduced , including the possibility of a voluntary coalition government at Stormont and reform of institutions including the petition of concern veto mechanism which has been controversial in recent years . Dr Farry said : " Powersharing devolution is vital to local democracy and representative decision-making , facilitating reconciliation and providing a coherent regional voice in critical matters such as Brexit . " The gains of recent decades have been hard won and should not be discarded without exploring all of the options and alternatives .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pull out of presiding over' does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It involves the verb 'got' with an NP object 'a huge emotional kick' and the phrase 'out of compiling the tracklisting for his MITs compilation' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The NP object does not function as a causee, and the construction does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction as described.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks a V1 verb that causes the NP object to move out of or be prevented from the VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, 'locked out of' is used in a different context, indicating a state of being denied access rather than a causative action with a movement or prevention interpretation.

The International Theatre Institute used its recent congress as a platform to reboot its image and raise the profile of its younger theatremakers . As the UK regains its ITI membership , with a new centre in Morecambe , Nick Awde reflects on the benefits to be gained from being at the heart of creating global theatre policy Before the new UK Centre of the International Theatre Institute took shape in September this year , I 'd long been accustomed to finding myself at ITI events in exotic locations as the solitary -- and non-affiliated -- Brit among hundreds of other theatre practitioners busy creating global theatre policy . Inevitably , this caused puzzlement among the ITI community -- why would one of the world 's great theatre nations choose not to participate , why would it choose not to have a centre , particularly as the UK was a founding nation of ITI ? Of course , there had been a centre ( two in fact ) . But , foreshadowing the attitudes currently driving Brexit , the previous UK centre @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of leadership and lack of engagement -- and its refusal to pay its contribution ( like its predecessor centre in 1975 ) . Though ITI overnight became a distant echo in our industry 's memory , interest has steadily regrown as people have been discovering for themselves the existence of the world 's biggest performing arts organisation . Handily , the theme of ITI 's 35th World Congress , which took place this summer in the evocative setting of a 13th-century former convent in Spain , was all about changing attitudes . And so I found myself in Segovia talking to director general Tobias Biancone about formally reintroducing the organisation to the UK by starting up a new centre with its base at Morecambe Fringe , a regenerative performing arts project I 'd co-founded with my co-director Matt Panesh . Performance of Newcraker ( Night of Hearts ) by the Spanish Centre for ITI Morecambe Fringe is based in the west end of Morecambe , a town with no theatre until 2017 when the fringe revived the Carleton Club theatre ( formerly the Alhambra music hall ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of theatre regeneration and year-round presence , the fringe is designed to work sustainably on community , national and international levels both within the industry and the wider public . Morecambe Fringe felt its concept would work as an umbrella for ITI , and the organisation agreed . So now the world 's youngest fringe and newest ITI centre are together under one roof . A core board has already been appointed and the hard work begins with fundraising , national consultation and establishing the case for ITI . The UK centre will launch fully during World Performance Week in March 2018 with an innovative networking website and a programme of events celebrating ITI 's 70th anniversary . Perhaps the ripples may not have fully reached our shores , but it 's clear that ITI 's efforts at Segovia represent a major turning point for attitudes in world theatre . For a start , you can imagine my joy at discovering the presence of two other Brits among the 700 participants at the congress . Tom Johnson had a good excuse to be there -- a Chinese speaker @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ general secretariat at its newly established headquarters in Shanghai ( having translocated from UNESCO in Paris ) . The appearance of student Fin Ross Russell was a little more unexpected , since somehow he had found his own way to Segovia . Continues ... 1 . The International Theatre Institute is the world 's largest performing arts organisation . It has one centre per country ( except Belgium , which has two ) , most of which form sector/policy groupings that reflect their geographical regions . There are 15 internationally active project groups . 2 . ITI works with what it calls cooperating member organisations such as the Professional Association of Canadian Theatres , Australia 's National Institute of Dramatic Art and its Short+Sweet Theatre , and India 's National School of Drama . Partner international organisations include the European Federation of Professional Circus Schools , the International Music Council and the World Mime Organisation . 3 . ITI also has globally reaching projects in development such as the relaunch of the Theatre of Nations festival , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and the Network for Higher Education in the Performing Arts . 4 . ITI celebrates its 70th anniversary in 2018 . Planned events include an expanded World Theatre Day on March 27 at UNESCO in Paris and International Dance Day on April 29 in Havana , with events in the Czech Republic and Mexico , an international festival in Vietnam , a week of activities in Africa , and a final celebration in China . 5 . ITI does not fund its centres and most are hosted by existing performing arts organisations , national theatres or universities . The UK centre 's partner Morecambe Fringe is an umbrella group for a range of festivals , events and activism . UK ITI 's policies and direction come from an independent board of practitioners drawn from across the sectors and regions . Of the six official UNESCO languages , aside from English , the board speaks Arabic , French , Russian and Spanish -- and hopes to add a Chinese speaker soon . Ross Russell is in his final year of a BA ( hons ) in drama @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Speech and Drama . Outside his studies , as writer and producer he has collaborated on community theatre projects overseas . " What interests me is theatre 's potential to bring people from different nationalities together , " he says , " and I 've attended a lot of events held by organisations aimed at working with arts practitioners on a global scale . About a year ago , I discovered ITI and joined its mailing list . It was there I learned that it was looking for young practitioners to perform at its world congress in Segovia . Performing in front of senior arts practitioners from every continent was an opportunity that I could n't pass up . " Stepping into that international environment for a young proactive practitioner is a no-brainer , says Ross Russell . " It 's ironic that we 're in a world that is incredibly globalised and connected yet also increasingly insular . Particularly in the UK where we are still coming to fully understand the final effects that Brexit will have , it 's difficult for many young British artists @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " International collaboration offers an opportunity to create work beyond your cultural sphere , and also to learn about other performance environments and debates from around the world . By being more internationally connected to each other as artists , we have more opportunities to use theatre to destroy the cultural barriers and stigmas so prevalent today . " A workshop at the student festival of the ITI/UNESCO Network for Higher Education in the Performing Arts This summer 's world congress was designed to give ITI the platform to reflect on precisely these ideas , which represent the values and goals inherent in the organisation . The result was a very public reboot to ensure ITI 's relevance today -- and the participation of people like Ross Russell showed the way in which that relevance can continue to engage and adapt . Along with the meetings , workshops and networking opportunities in Segovia , there was a parallel dance programme by the International Dance Committee in nearby La Granja and a three-day student festival of the ITI/UNESCO Network for Higher Education in the Performing Arts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by national centres , including a Slovenian Madame Bovary , Chinese opera and Shame , an Israeli/Palestinian political piece . Another highlight turned out to be the daily micro- performances devised by the young practitioners ' programme ( rebranded as ' emerging arts practitioners ' ) , which unintentionally transformed itself into ITI 's first ever fringe . A feat all the more remarkable when you consider that most of ITI 's member countries do not have fringes . " Having 700 delegates , educators and artists from all over the world at Segovia is a strong signal that ITI is taking diversity seriously , " says Biancone . " Our commitment to bringing over young practitioners and students to this year 's congress resulted in them taking power into their hands and ensuring that their inclusion is guaranteed for the future . I am sure that the position of the next generation will now be increasingly felt within ITI globally and locally . " It 's that global network access that strikes gold for any practitioner , which Ross Russell discovered first hand : " The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coming from every corner of the globe en masse and descending on Segovia . " As somebody who was new to the work of ITI , it felt intimidating at first to step into everything with no knowledge of how the congress worked . However , everybody became quickly familiar with each others ' presence and each others ' work . " By the end of the congress , partnerships were being struck , contact details were being exchanged and the foundations for the future were beginning to be built . ITI gets the right balance of bringing people together who are powerful enough to make an impact but not too big that they ca n't focus on the arts at a local , community level . " Ross Russell has now joined UK ITI as its young practitioners ' representative thanks to his key contribution at Segovia in framing the Network of Emerging Arts Professionals . The network is communicating with other ITI committees and centres to organise projects that include festival performance slots , artistic residencies and cultural exchanges . Its debut festival , exclusively @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Brazil in 2018 . Biancone is proud to think that Ross Russell will be back next year as part of a UK contingent and not a lone presence . " The UK was and is an important player in the performing arts . The world of the performing arts will be thankful for the initiative taken to open a new centre in the UK . It will increase the presence of UK artists in educational , artistic and humanistic projects globally -- and open the door for collaboration with all our countries . " Will the UK 's new ITI centre find its rightful place as Britain 's focal point for global theatre initiatives ? Ian Herbert hopes so In 1980 , when I was out of a lucrative publishing job and desperately looking for something to do , Michel Julian gave me shelter in the UK International Theatre Institute 's Covent Garden office , home to a number of theatrical initiatives including Theatre Quarterly . A young student at Central , Deborah Warner @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for fundraising appeals while in the process of setting up her Kick Theatre Company . Michel , who died nearly a year ago , had an amazing talent for making something out of nothing : for my first ITI Congress , in East Berlin in 1983 , I found myself part of a large , self-funded UK delegation that made its mark on many of the active committees that were then at the institute 's heart . We were subsequently able to lead on valuable international initiatives such as the World Theatre Directory and the biennial survey World of Theatre . In the end , the centre 's meagre funds ran out and Michel was replaced , at the suggestion of Arnold Wesker , by Neville Shulman , whose business acumen and wide network of contacts in the arts enabled us to survive for another decade . The annual Awards for Excellence in International Theatre and Dance gave the centre some profile , but it failed to achieve a real place among British theatrical institutions . We were constantly in search of new members for the board @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's inactivity and lack of influence and walked quickly away , leaving the few remaining members ever more isolated . When I made the mistake of suggesting to Shulman that his devoted service had achieved enough , and it was time for him to step down , he reacted furiously and it was I who had to leave . British ITI was by then something of a one-man show , with Shulman sitting on the institute 's executive committee and travelling the world as chair of its dance committee . When he failed to obtain re-election to the international governing body , the UK centre to all intents and purposes closed its doors , and lost its ITI membership in 2013 . It was a surprise , then , to discover that the Excellence in International Theatre and Dance awards are still being handed out , this year recognising figures including Royal Court artistic director Vicky Featherstone and choreographer Matthew Bourne in a ceremony at the Dorchester . They are now apparently in the gift of an organisation called the International Institute for Dance and Theatre ( director @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , March 27 . Readers might be interested to access the website at worldtheatreday.com , to find that it 's an organisation " supporting the national and international theatre and dance community 365 days a year " and organises the awards on ITI 's big day . It 's directed by one Alon Shulman , an events organiser , and has no ITI affiliation . Now we have a British ITI centre once more , fully affiliated to ITI and therefore UNESCO . It remains to be seen whether it can find its rightful place as the UK 's focal point for international theatre initiatives , incoming and outgoing . I shall be crossing my fingers .

It has now become a trend that in the capital , Harare , there is a typhoid outbreak every rainy season .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'took the fun out of breaking the law' involves an NP ('the fun') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and 'breaking the law' is a gerund phrase modifying 'the fun'. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

When Roger Lockyer met his future husband Percy Steven on a blind date in 1966 , their relationship made them criminals in the eyes of British law . By the time the distinguished academic and author , a reader at Royal Holloway and Bedford Universities of London , died shortly before his 90th birthday , the pair lived as a legally married couple - having tied the knot in 2014 . Their remarkable journey drew worldwide press attention , when , in 2005 , they became one of the first couples to enter into a UK civil partnership . Invites to Downing Street followed . Together for 51 years , they proudly marched in this year 's Pride in London parade waving rainbow flags . However , this was never the plan . Historians usually document history - they rarely walk into the pages themselves . The couple had lived a quiet , cultured existence in an elegant flat in Marylebone , central London , until the modern era of LGBT rights came knocking and propelled them into the limelight . Pictures of the pair in sharp suits saying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of champagne on the steps of the Westminster register office , appeared on TVs and in newspapers across Europe , the US and Canada . Image caption Roger Lockyer ( R ) with Percy Steven at Pride in London 2017 Eager journalists clamoured for their attention , aware of the rarity of their find ; a couple whose relationship was unique , not just for its wit , passion and longevity , but also because it had survived half a century of seismic change in legal and social attitudes towards sexuality . Roger later remarked : " We had these cameras following us down the street and neighbours leant out of windows to wave us off . Friends spotted us on television in France and Germany . " After Elton John , we felt like the most famous gay men in the world . " They went on to feature in multiple interviews , including the BBC 's recent docudrama Against the Law , marking the 50th anniversary of the Sexual Offences Act 1967 , which partially decriminalised homosexuality in England and Wales . He graduated with first-class honours , beginning an eminent career as an academic and author of nearly a dozen books on 15th and 16th Century history . His seminal volume Tudor and Stuart Britain , first published in 1964 , remains a core text for many undergraduates in the UK . But Roger 's private and professional lives remained separate by necessity . Image copyrightEPAImage caption Roger ( L ) celebrates his civil partnership with Percy on the steps of Westminster register office in 2005 His stories of escapades as a young gay man in the 1940s , 1950s and 1960s were as mischievous and comic as they were a window into an often hostile world , where as second-class citizens homosexual men had to tread carefully on the edges of society . National Service was " fantastic " because it was filled with so many gay men . Cambridge was equally " very , very gay " , causing one heterosexual undergraduate to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " something wrong with him " because he was attracted to women . " I think you 'll be alright Douglas , " Prof Lockyer replied drily . But those social bubbles did not conceal the potential danger of living in a country where men convicted of a being in a same-sex relationship risked jail , loss of their livelihoods , or even death . Prof Lockyer , who once quipped that the passing of the 1967 act of parliament " took the fun out of breaking the law " , equally emphasised its brutal impact . " It was exciting in a way and almost an adventure . But looking back at it now one realises that potentially it could be awful . " We know people who were sent to prison and their careers ruined . " The friend who introduced us was killed and his murder was never solved . It was a deeply unpleasant society . " Image caption Roger Lockyer in his younger years Despite the dangers , a vibrant , closely guarded , gay community bubbled @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , sub-rosa network of gay clubs we would go to , " Prof Lockyer explained . One bar-hopping friend and ex-lover was Jeremy Wolfenden , the gay son of Lord Wolfenden , whose radical report controversially recommended decriminalising homosexuality in 1957 . " Places like the Rockingham in Soho ... was for well-to-do , sophisticated people - it had its own writing paper . " You had to give your name at the door and I said : ' Jeremy , are n't you a little worried that you give your name ' Wolfenden ' ? " He said : ' Oh do n't worry my dear I always give your name . ' " So I 'm recorded as having a much busier social life when it was in fact Jeremy capering about town while his father made these important recommendations to the government about ' queers ' . " Image copyrightBBC/Andrew DunsmoreImage caption Percy with Roger ( R ) on their wedding day in 2014 The historian met his future husband Percy Steven , a South African-born actor and lecturer , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The meeting was an initial " disaster " but Roger , wilting daffodils in hand , had already fallen in love . He said : " The moment I set eyes on Percy I knew that even though he was being horrid , he was the person I was going to spend the rest of my life with , so I persisted . " " And I gave in ! " Percy replied cheerfully . For many gay men of their generation , the changes to the law that made them recognised spouses - thereby ensuring the right not to be kicked out of hospital rooms if they were ill , or lose their home due to unfair tax laws when one of them died - came too late . Roger and Percy 's shot to fame late in life came as a pleasant surprise and they embraced opportunities to be as visible as they had previously been secretive . They also enjoyed plenty of glasses of champagne . On the night he died , with Percy by his side , Roger 's appearance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the Barcelona International LGBT Festival . Image caption Roger and Percy enjoyed celebrating at Pride in London 2017 Speaking to the BBC in 2015 , he said : " I think that particularly being a historian ... people do know a bit about their own history and what others went through and it makes for a richer and fuller life if they do . " I remember distinctly walking down the street after the ceremony thinking : ' I am as legal a person as anybody else . I am a full citizen at last . ' It was a wonderful feeling . " Professor Roger Lockyer , historian , author and activist , was born on November 27 , 1927 . He died on October 28 , 2017 aged 89 . He leaves his husband Percy Steven and a niece .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate.

A change of name and outlook has worked wonders at the Spalding school that used to bear the name of old Holland County Council leader Sir John Gleed . Spalding Academy students have a new sense of pride and purpose just over a year after senior educators from South Lincolnshire Academies Trust ( SLAT ) were given " the freedom to stand or fall " by their promise to revitalise the school . The Trust applied a similar remedy to that used on Bourne Academy when it was Robert Manning Technology College ten years earlier , with instant results after Year 11 students achieved the best GCSE grades in Spalding Academy 's recent history . Executive headteacher Laurence Reilly said : " There 's been no permanent or temporary exclusions at the school so far this year , mainly because the behaviour of students has been so good . " When we had our Open Evening for prospective students four weeks ago , we had 400 information bags to give out and they all went . " We also very nearly ran out of parking spaces which goes to show that the summer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the school which , in turn , makes the staff feel really positive . " Laurence Reilly , Executive Head Teacher , Spalding Academy When SLAT took over Spalding Academy on September 1 , 2016 , senior staff appointed an " Operational Rapid Improvement Team " ( ORIT ) made up of teachers based at Bourne Academy . The ORIT brought in changes which included the installation of a 2.4 meter fence and electronic gates to improve site security , new uniform and teachers , a house system , supervised breaks and lunchtimes , a revamped curriculum and a " back to basics " discipline campaign . Mr Reilly said : " Sir John Gleed School had gone through a turbulent number of years and we thought ' can we fix it ? ' " So we went to the Regional School Commissioner , having @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ work in Spalding . " We were given the freedom to come in and stand or fall by what we did , with the total support of South Holland and the Deepings MP , John Hayes . " It 's an absolute privilege to be here at Spalding Academy where we 're trying to build its prestige in order to offer the town an alternative to the selective education offered by Spalding Grammar and High Schools .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes a situation where Newcastle ran out of attacking steam, which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action denoted by a VP[-ing] predicate. The phrase 'ran out of attacking steam' is idiomatic and does not align with the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

FOUR forwards , 11 games , four goals . If you 're looking for an explanation of why Newcastle United once again find themselves in the bottom half of the Premier League table , a cursory glance at their attacking statistics tells you everything you need to know . Joselu has scored two goals from his ten league outings since joining the Magpies , and increasingly looks like a striker who does not know where his next success is going to come from . Dwight Gayle , recalled to the starting line-up at the weekend , is still to open his account for the season , and continues to look a pale imitation of the penalty-box predator who rampaged his way through the Championship last term . Ayoze Perez and Aleksandar Mitrovic boast one goal apiece , but Rafael Benitez lost patience with the former on Saturday , dropping him to the bench for the visit of Bournemouth , and clearly gave up on the latter a long time ago . With Newcastle crying out for someone to hold up the ball as Bournemouth built up a head of steam in the closing stages of their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the crowd 's pleas for Mitrovic to be introduced . The Serb has well and truly been cast into exile . Loading article content The upshot is that Newcastle 's entire forward line boasts half the number of goals scored by Harry Kane this season . Even Raheem Sterling can claim to have scored three goals more . Saturday 's 1-0 defeat was Newcastle 's fourth loss by that scoreline since they returned to the top-flight , and they have failed to score in almost half of their matches . No matter how well organised and hard-working you are , you are always going to struggle unless that improves . Benitez warned about the risks of not investing in a proven goalscorer on a regular basis during this summer 's transfer window , but his pleas went unheeded . If Mike Ashley remains in charge beyond the end of the year -- and for all the talk of Amanda Staveley 's PCP Capital Partners conducting due diligence , that scenario is looking increasingly likely -- there is every chance his words will fall on deaf @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ attacking players will have to improve markedly if Newcastle 's current slide down the table is not to become a protracted battle in the bottom half . " Sometimes , it just comes down to who can take their chances , " admitted Matt Ritchie , who is still searching for his first goal of the campaign despite netting 16 times in all competitions last season . " In this league , you 've got to do something really special just to create a chance . " You have to be good as a team and work hard for your chances , and I think we did that in the first half . But then you have to take them and we just could n't do that . We were on the front foot , pressed really well and regained the ball in good positions . But we just could n't quite make the most of it . " Ritchie is right when he claims a lack of opportunities was not the problem at the weekend . Benitez mounted a passionate defence of his playing style on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' manager , and his switch to a 4-4-2 system was evidence of a willingness to loosen the shackles when the opportunity allows . Newcastle created a host of first-half opportunities as a result , but none were taken . Asmir Begovic produced fine saves to deny Ritchie and Christian Atsu , while Gayle saw a goalbound header blocked by Steve Cook . The Magpies were unfortunate at times , most notably when Ritchie clipped a left-footed shot against the post and Gayle 's follow-up effort was disallowed for offside when replays suggested he might just about have been level with the final defender , but there was a lack of composure to much of the hosts ' attacking that tends to be accentuated when chances are being spurned . Joselu was especially wasteful , scuffing shots wide and snatching at even a half-chance inside the area , and having grown increasingly frustrated as they failed to break the deadlock before the interval , Newcastle quickly ran out of attacking steam after the break . Are they simply not clinical enough in front of goal ? Not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a bit harsh to say that , " said the Scotsman . " You 're playing against top defenders , some of the best defenders in the world , and you have to work hard for your chances . It would be wrong to say we have n't been clinical enough . " Each to their own , everyone will have their own opinions , but my opinion is that yes , it would be nice if when you create a chance you score a goal , but it does n't always work like that . You 're playing against top defenders and it 's so quick out there -- you 're not going to score with every chance you create . You have to continue to create chances , and hopefully the more chances you create , the more goals you will score . That 's what we will continue to aim to do . " Fair enough , but after Newcastle completely dominated the opening half-hour , the game became a much more even contest for the final 60 minutes . Rob Elliot saved from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the end of the first half , and the visitors spurned the best opportunity of the game seven minutes after the break as Wilson shot into the side-netting after his strike partner , King , has sent him scampering clear of the Magpies ' back four . With Newcastle 's defending becoming increasingly desperate , Bournemouth were left frustrated when Marc Pugh 's 89th-minute effort squeezed through Elliot 's legs , took another deflection off Ciaran Clark , and rebounded to safety off the post . There was still time for one more chance though , and when Andrew Surman swung over a stoppage-time corner from the right , Cook out-jumped both Clark and Florian Lejeune to power home a header from the edge of the six-yard box . " It 's a horrible way to lose in the last minute , but we 'll go again , " said Ritchie . " I think that just shows how tight the Premier League is .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'elephants' is the NP object and 'existing habitats' is part of the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a movement/extraction interpretation, as it implies that elephants are being caused to move out of their existing habitats by human behavior, which fits the definition of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A photo of an elephant and a calf fleeing a mob that set them on fire has won top entry in a wildlife photography competition . The image " shows the two animals running among a crowd that has hurled flaming tar balls and crackers at them , reportedly to ward the elephants away from human settlements , " says The Guardian . Titled " Hell is here " , the picture was taken by Biplab Hazra , a wildlife photographer from West Bengal 's Bankura district , and won the 2017 Sanctuary 's Wildlife Photographer of the Year award . Announcing the award , Sanctuary magazine said " this sort of humiliation ... is routine " . " The ignorance and bloodlust of mobs that attack herds for fun , is compounded by the plight of those that actually suffer damage to land , life and property by wandering elephants and the utter indifference of the central and state government to recognise the crisis that is at hand , " the magazine said in a note accompanying the photograph . " For @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the subcontinent for centuries , hell is now and here , " added Hazra . The photo caused consternation on social media .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks an NP object and a VP2[-ing] predicate, and there is no indication of a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Democrats were celebrating on Wednesday after winning big in governor , state legislative , county and mayors ' races across the country on a night full of symbolism , a year to the day from Donald Trump 's election as president . It was the party 's most cheering night at the ballot box since Barack Obama 's re-election five years ago . They handed Republicans what Obama once memorably called a " shellacking " when on the receiving end . They now have the wind at their backs for the 2018 midterm elections and a decent shot at taking back the House of Representatives . It was a stinging rebuke to Trump as he arrives in China in an attempt to play global statesman . The so-called resistance had shown it could amass vast women 's marches and skewer the president with witty epigrams on Twitter . Now it heeded Obama 's plea to go beyond hashtags and memes by showing up . " This is what happens when the people vote , " Obama tweeted . The results also represented a corrective , a restoration of some kind of equilibrium and a reminder @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lurch to the populist right on 8 November 2016 . Trump lost the popular vote by nearly 3 million that day and won the Oval Office because of the arcane electoral college . Republican strategists warned at the time that this was hardly grounds for confidence in total dominance for all time , although Trump celebrated it again with a tweet on Wednesday : Donald J. Trump ( @realDonaldTrump ) Congratulations to all of the " DEPLORABLES " and the millions of people who gave us a MASSIVE ( 304-227 ) Electoral College landslide victory ! **26;1038;TOOLONG The New York Times columnist Frank Bruni wrote : " Just when we needed a sign that his America is not all of America , Virginia came to the rescue and gave us a vivid one . And I guarantee you that the Republicans up for re-election in 2018 saw it , shuddered and will spend the next weeks and months trying to figure out just how much trouble their party is in and precisely how to repair it . " Democratic joy was mixed with palpable relief . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ backed Clinton over Trump last year , would have been catastrophic and prompted gloomy cliches of " being out of power for a generation " . Virginia 's comfy northern suburbs include commuters to Washington DC , where Trump supporters are harder to find than tickets to Hamilton . The newest local celebrity is Juli Briskman , a cyclist who gave the president 's motorcade the middle finger . Losing Virginia would have suggested that there was something very , very wrong , that a tectonic plate had shifted . In the end , they did more than just not lose . The governor 's race was n't even close . Democrat Ralph Northam beat Republican Ed Gillespie by nine percentage points , a much wider margin than expected and significantly bigger than Clinton 's win over Trump . Steve Kornacki , a voting analyst on the MSNBC channel , dubbed it " the revenge of the suburbs " after a long 12 months of Trump . The president himself , who had largely stayed out of campaigning for the biggest election day of 2017 , found time @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ threat to tweet : " Ed Gillespie worked hard but did not embrace me or what I stand for . " Surprisingly , Democrats also wiped out a 32-seat Republican advantage in Virginia 's house of delegates , with recounts likely to determine control . Poetically , Bob Marshall , one of the chamber 's longest-serving and most conservative members , who earlier this year sponsored a bill that would have limited the bathrooms transgender people can use , was unseated by Danica Roem , a Democrat and former journalist who is transgender . In New Jersey , term-limited Republican Chris Christie , the first governor to endorse Trump for president and now the most unpopular state chief executive in the country , must hand over the mansion keys to a Democrat after Phil Murphy trounced the Republican lieutenant-governor , Kim Guadagno . Read more The Democratic mayors of New York and Boston won re-election easily . In Hoboken , New Jersey , Ravinder Bhalla became one of the first Sikh mayors of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Manchester , New Hampshire , to become the city 's first female mayor . Charlotte got its first African American Democratic female mayor . And voters in Maine approved a referendum to expand Medicaid for low-income adults , defying the Republican governor , Paul LePage . The omens are very good for next year , especially as the party not occupying the White House always tends to do well . Dave Wasserman , US House editor of the Cook Report , tweeted : " You ca n't really look at tonight 's results and conclude that Democrats are anything other than the current favorites to pick up the US House in 2018 . " The greatest danger now is complacency . This " tsunami election " , as the Richmond Times-Dispatch put it , could create the illusion that division between the Clinton and Bernie Sanders wings is healed , that the leadership vacuum left by Obama is no problem , that the tide of anti-Trump sentiment will drift inexorably into office by itself . Or it can try to have it both ways , as Gillespie did in Virginia , playing the anti-immigration card in the south-west while seeking to appear moderate in the north . It was a perilous tightrope walk and he fell to the ground with a splat. |

KEVIN SPACEY is being cut from a forthcoming blockbuster he played a major role in , following a string of sexual harassment allegations made against him . The actor will be erased from All The Money In The World -- whose budget has already hit ? 30million -- with Christopher Plummer , 87 , drafted in to play US oilman J Paul Getty . Shooting had finished but director Ridley Scott has recalled stars Mark Wahlberg and Michelle Williams to film scenes with the Canadian . Bosses said they could n't risk letting the work of the other cast and crew be tarnished by association with the Spacey scandal . TriStar Pictures , a division of Sony , said : ' There are over 800 other actors , writers , artists , craftspeople and crew who worked tirelessly and ethically on this film , some for years , including one of cinema 's master directors . It would be a gross injustice to punish all of them for the wrongdoings of one supporting actor in the film . ' TriStar now faces @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with the US release date of December 22 -- just six weeks away . Spacey will have to be wiped out of marketing material and trailers for the story of billionaire Getty 's refusal to pay a ransom after his grandson 's 1970s kidnapping . The troubled actor spent eight to ten days filming in several locations for the project , which includes desert scenes . The trailer -- already released -- shows him with hordes of extras playing news reporters . He wore facial prosthetics to make him look like Getty , who had a prominent nose . TriStar 's decision comes after a screening of the movie was pulled by the American Film Institute Festival in LA . Small-screen entertainment giant Netflix had already called a halt to political drama House Of Cards , which stars Spacey . The double Oscar winner is having evaluation and treatment after saying he wanted to ' examine ' his behaviour once the allegations surfaced . Tearful : Heather Unruh makes allegations PICS : REX/GETTY Anthony Rapp claimed last month that , when he was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a bed after a party and climbed on top of him , making sexual advances . The accused Usual Suspects star said he did not remember harassing the actor but , if the claims were true , he would owe him an apology . The 58-year-old , who used his statement about Rapp to come out as gay , has since faced claims that he groped or harassed several young men over the last 30 years . British police are investigating a complaint that he sexually assaulted a man in London in 2008 . Ex-US TV news anchor Heather Unruh said on Wednesday that when her son was 18 , Spacey grabbed his genitals in a bar . DITCHING or recasting stars at the 11th hour happens more often than we think . But the radical decision to cut disgraced actor Kevin Spacey from the already finished All The Money In The World , reshoot his pivotal , already @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( Christopher Plummer ) and release the revised film in the space of six weeks on December 22 is unprecedented -- and arguably only achievable by Alien creator Sir Ridley Scott . The nearly 80-year-old maverick is certainly not a ditherer . It was only in May this year that he even signed up to direct All The Money In The World and he 's clearly not going to let the toxic effect of Spacey 's alleged sex crimes ruin its chances of success . Though Spacey only did eight to ten days on set , it 's still a mammoth challenge to reshoot his scenes , which , as the trailer shows ( and they 'll have to redo all the trailers too ) , involve multiple locations , including a desert . Incredibly , it seems co-stars Michelle Williams and Mark Wahlberg are both available -- well , it 's in their best interests after all . However , it 's quite possible Scott will use digital manipulation to map Plummer 's features on to Spacey 's in the same way he digitally recreated Oliver @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of a heart attack . The extra budget cost should be money well spent if this already ? 30million movie is a smash -- and it 's primed for the awards ' corridor ' of a December-January release . If Scott pulls it off , this would mean he 's well placed for his fourth best director Oscar nomination , and line up a third best supporting nod for the 87-year-old Plummer -- Scott 's original choice for the Spacey role , and who is still best loved for playing Captain von Trapp in The Sound Of Music . |

Great Lever were founded in 1877 , the same year their local rivals , who started up three years earlier as Christ Church FC , changed their name to Bolton Wanderers . Great Lever only lasted for nine years before they ran out of funding , the players went on strike and they folded . Their fans switched to supporting Wanderers and their better players scattered to other professional clubs around the country . They were formed by parishioners of St Bartholomew 's Church and played on a ground on High Street in Great Lever , moving to a new ground on the Farnworth side of Manchester Road just before they folded . Everton , of course , never looked back from their first-ever game in what now seems unbelievable surroundings . But the team and locals of Great Lever ensured they had a baptism of fire in a Lancashire FA Knockout match on November 6 , 1880 . Great Lever won 1-0 but Everton were n't happy with some of the referee 's decisions and complained to the Lancashire FA who found in their favour and ordered it to be replayed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The locals back in Great Lever were n't happy and the replay turned into an acrimonious affair which Everton found themselves very much on the receiving end . The initial match was also a landmark in that it was the first time a club from Liverpool ever made a rail journey to a game . Everton arrived at Trinity Street Station in Bolton where they were met by Great Lever officials and escorted by horse drawn vehicle to their headquarters , a local pub called the Old Robin Hood about a mile away . They walked to the ground where a simple enclosure had been built housing fans adjacent to a notorious local landmark called Wellington Yard . Great Lever dominated the game but Everton 's goalkeeper and resilient defending restricted them to one second-half goal scored by their Lancashire County player John Higham . When the game was replayed at High Street Everton were unable to field their strongest side and were hammered 7-1 , much to the satisfaction of the Great Lever supporters who were furious at Everton for complaining about the first @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had to walk the gauntlet of angry home supporters who surrounded them on their way back to the Old Robin Hood . A journalist from the Liverpool Courier blended in with crowd and described the behaviour of the Great Lever supporters as " outlandish " . He wrote in his paper : " The Evertonians are likely to retain the reverse of pleasurable recollections following their second visit to Great Lever . " Their team won the match , but even this did not consolidate the blatant crowd , which thronged the ground , whose demeanour was so threatening that the visitor , and even the referee , felt its chilling presence . " When the Liverpool team retired from the field , they were assailed with taunts and abusive epithets . " ' Tha , ll get no cheese and bacon to neat ' sneered one of the irreconcilables to the Evertonians -- that being the hospitality when in a generous . " Nor did the Evertonians get the proverbial cheese and bacon . " Everton never went back to Great Lever @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ game which saw them beat Everton 1-0 at Anfield . Great Lever moved from High Street , which was unpopular with visiting teams , to a new ground on Manchester Road and they began to import players from Scotland . The ground was unpopular with their followers , though , who began to desert them in favour of local rivals Wanderers . Following an FA Cup defeat to Irish club Cliftonville , Great Lever ran out of funding and the players went on strike and in December , 1886 they folded and faded into history . So Everton fans would do well to remember as they moan about their current predicament , at least you do n't have to go to Great Lever .

Another edifying week on the Mount Olympus of British politics , as the Tory gods continue to operate on a one-in , one-out policy . No one 's eaten their own children yet , although some of the parenting is starting to look fairly idiosyncratic . Still , which of us holidaymakers has n't palmed our kids off with the iPad for a couple of days while we take some much-needed me time in the Knesset ? Siri , find me somewhere to buy 10 kilos of Haribo in the Golan Heights . To behold the pantheon is to know that whatever the opposite of a clash of the titans is , this government 's having it . Unfortunately , Theresa May 's shuffle function is broken . She can only manually cue up one new minister at a time , and only when the minister before has played out completely . It 's a laborious process that saw Britain compelled to endure a nine-hour fade-out for Priti Patel . As the international development secretary 's plane crawled across the flight-tracker app of 22,000 political ironists on Wednesday , it was reported that Downing Street wanted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Clearly , this would have been possible only with a Tardis . Without one , it was the most ludicrous use of the word dignity since the universal credit debate . According to Patel 's friends , now she has resigned she is going to turn her energies to Brexit and " go off like a double-barrelled shotgun " . Think of this as the Tory biathlon , where departing ministers slide down a shit mountain of their own creation , then open fire in the national interest . At current rate of growth , the sport will overtake hockey in popularity by Christmas . Any winners ? I suppose Patel 's departure revalidates Andrea Leadsom , whose enchanted mirror confirms to her that at the cabinet table , she is once more the dimmest of them all . It was also good news for Buffalo Boris Johnson , who is still acquiring the raw materials from which to sew together his Winston Churchill suit , and welcomes attention being diverted anywhere else while he works . This week saw the foreign secretary casually risk the further @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ overturned a year of painstaking insistence by Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe 's family and legal team that she had been on holiday in Tehran visiting her parents , and not training journalists , as the Iranian authorities declared when they sentenced her to five years . Despite reports of acute distress on the part of Zaghari-Ratcliffe and her family , and threatening broadcasts on Iranian state TV , Johnson would say only that he was sorry if his words had been " taken out of context " . And yet , if we may return to the record , the foreign secretary 's literal words were : " When I look at what Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe was doing , she was simply teaching people journalism , as I understand it . " This suggests that the context in which words mean their opposite is the physical context of Johnson 's mouth . I guess we already knew this . Even so , this episode found a concealed basement in the barrel he 's been scraping . Other winners ? If we count getting your tail knotted into Theresa May 's rat-king @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Mordaunt , who took over from Patel at International Development . Penny 's previous claim to fame was refusing to allow her wit to be defined by her surname , and consequently saying cock a lot of times in a Commons speech . She also appeared on a fourth-tier ITV reality show for the stated reason that she wanted to raise ? 7,000 for her local lido , and the unstated one that that is just the sort of thing you say when you want to raise your profile but not go Full Nadine . Elsewhere in the land of strong and stable , the de facto deputy prime minister is still under cabinet investigation for both making inappropriate advances towards a Tory activist and an allegation that porn was found on his office computer , in a case that currently appears to hinge on Damian Green 's assertion that Britain 's former most senior counter-terrorism chief is " discredited " . Meanwhile , over at the negotiations with the European Union , David Davis is still saying " pragmatic " " flexible " and " creative " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ convinced that there is a precise sequence in which these words could be uttered that would not simply make them mean something -- anything -- that would stop Michel Barnier looking at him like a competition winner . Is there ? " Non . " In one sense , then , no one can really be surprised by the results of a Times-YouGov poll that asked voters who should replace Theresa May as leader . Even so , there is something rather mesmeric about it . Do n't Know is on 37% . None of Those Named is on 27% , with both distantly trailed by Boris Johnson at 10% and Jacob Rees-Mogg on 8% . Do n't Know , None of Those , Boris Johnson and Jacob Rees-Mogg ... What can you say ? My country , right or wrong . Many of you wo n't have felt this inspired since Own Goal drew level with Bobby Charlton and Wayne Rooney as England 's top scorer . Before we go on , though , a clarification . In a recent column I may have given the impression @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sub-par thinker who has yet to grow out of pretending to be something else . But on reflection , I am wondering if he is not in fact a cyborg sent back in time by Skynet to make Boris look like someone who would n't be the worst choice for a prime minister . The Conservative party is now urgently in need of a Kyle Reese-style soldier to destroy him and save humanity . ( Expect Johnny Mercer to be linked with the role in due course . ) Then again , among Tory voters , Rees-Mogg is heading the ideal leader stakes on 18% , while Boris has drifted to 12% . Encouraging to think that those two could be the answer to any question other than : " Which post-imperial theme park greeter would most resoundingly constitute our formal resignation from international life ? " The suspicion , alas , is that this country delivered the resignation letter some time ago , but is in that period of magical thinking where it has yet to realise it . After the referendum vote last year , one European @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ run off the edge of the cliff but not yet looked down . It 's hard to say how many more weeks we 'll be airborne , but after this one it seems clear that a Priti Patel-style landing awaits us. |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'the organisation' is the NP subject, 'tried to wriggle' is the V1, 'him' is the NP object, and 'being criticised' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, as the organisation is attempting to avoid being criticised. The verb 'wriggle' can be classified under the means of exerting force or pressure metaphorically.

The sentence 'knocked the African champions out of qualifying' fits the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. The verb 'knocked' implies a means of exerting force, and the NP object 'the African champions' is a causee participating in the event described by 'qualifying'. The interpretation is prevention, as the action prevented the African champions from qualifying. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Vote for AFOTY . And that is a wrap . Hopefully this live text has helped you decide on who to vote for on the BBC African Footballer of the Year shortlist . You can go for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang , Naby Keita , Sadio Mane , Victor Moses or Mohamed Salah . Just vote on the side of this page if you 're on a desktop computer or use a tab at the top if you 're on a mobile . You can vote until 27 November and the winner is announced on 11 December . Past AFOTY winners Getty Images Jay Jay Okocha 's flamboyant on-the-pitch style grabbed attention in his first season at Bolton in 2003 when he finished as the club 's joint-top scorer . A superb strike on the final day of the season also helped keep the north-west club up .

No other player has been named BBC African Footballer of the Year in back-to-back seasons . Last year , Nielsen Sports research showed that Nigeria , Africa 's biggest economy , is the number one most engaged football market globally . An incredible 83% of people there are interested in football and even more remarkable is the fact 65% of them play the game too . Past AFOTY winners Getty Images El Hadji Diouf is seemingly always remembered for one specific game - the World Cup opener of 2002 , when he ran France ragged as Senegal shocked the defending champions . He had already agreed to join Liverpool and some would argue he had also already reached the peak of his powers . Nonetheless , Diouf claimed the BBC African Footballer of the Year award in 2002 and he was also named in Fifa 's all-star XI that year . Since , he has played for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Leeds and more . He now does some work in sport for the government in Senegal , runs a newspaper business and owns a gym . Past AFOTY winners Getty Images The BBC award was just one of many that AC Milan 's George Weah won in 1995 along with the African , European and World Player titles , and the Liberian is still the only African to have won Fifa 's prestigious prize .

The quarter point rise in the Bank of England base rate ten days ago may have borrowers worrying about the extra squeeze on their finances . But their pain is the banking sector 's gain . Banks are now able to extract a bigger slice between the cash they take in as deposits and the money lent to borrowers , especially if they continue the widespread practice of failing to pass on the rate increase to already squeezed savers . With more rate hikes on the horizon , some experts are predicting this will stimulate the profits and share prices of banks -- and reward investors who have waited patiently for them to lurch back into favour following the financial crisis . Such rewards could be awaiting Ben Whitmore , fund manager of Jupiter UK Special Situations , who holds about a quarter of his fund 's portfolio in banks and other financial groups . Whitmore , who hunts down good value shares rather than picking a favourite sector , prefers not to make forecasts based on political @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reap some rewards . He says : ' Financial companies , especially banks , would benefit from gradual rises in interest rates . ' Share Whitmore prefers to analyse individual companies to understand where their current earnings sit compared to the past . He says : ' We recently invested in Barclays . Its shares trade on a significant discount to its book value due to uncertainty over the strategy . On several measures , it is on just half the rating of HSBC . This seems too low . ' Casting off shares that have done their bit is equally important . He sold aerospace company BAE Systems recently because ' the shares have been performing strongly and no longer offer much value ' . Even when a share consistently fails to perform he will continue to hold out for improvements . One such is education group Pearson that he has held for several years . He says : ' This has not been a successful investment to date . But we do believe it has a lot of value at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ team select shares without emotion as this is ' the biggest inhibitor of returns ' . Instead they use two screening measures : the Graham & Dodd matrix to find low valued stocks based on their average earnings over a period of ten years ; and the Greenblatt , which pinpoints companies that combine low valuation and a high return on their revenue generating assets . Investors like Ben Whitmore will benefit from more hikes in the base rate He says : ' The screening systems iron out biases by forcing us to look at lowly valued companies . Humans do not like going against the crowd -- the screens force us to . ' Although he does not favour particular sectors as such , the screening systems inevitably allow sector groupings to emerge . As well as banks , they have thrown up food retailing , mining and energy as bargain sectors . Whitmore adds : ' Whilst these offer the lowest valuation at sector level , portfolio diversification is critical . ' Patrick Connolly , of financial adviser Chase de Vere , likes the manager @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the bottom quarter of its fund sector over the past year . He says : ' Special situations funds typically have periods when they perform well and others when they perform poorly . They often invest in value stocks which are out of favour and until these stocks recover many of these funds can be expected to lag .

You only need an excuse . The fundamental appeal of Football Manager is the same as it was in the Collyer brothers ' debut in 1992 , and if at any time in your life that appeal has spoken to you , it will do so forevermore . Really , it 's just a matter of how seductively each iteration whispers its new features list at you . Developer : Sports Interactive Publisher : Sega Platform : Reviewed on PC Availability : Out now on PC " There 's a brand new match engine , you know , " says Football Manager 2018 , playing absent-mindedly with its hair . " Sports science and data analysis plays much more of a role now too , " it continues , making a circle with one hand and moving an index finger in and out with the other . You know in your heart of hearts that it 'll be a lot like the last time you spent 215 hours arranging spreadsheets and obsessing over promising teenage trequartistas . But still you cave . Perhaps @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , then , is whether you actually miss its new features if you go back and play the last one . To its credit , Football Manager 2018 achieves that comfortably . By contrast , FM 2017 's scouting seems a bit shallow , its UI dated , and its fantasy draft mode - the most enjoyable addition in recent years - feels barebones . Having spent enough time with the new game , I 'd be loathe to return to the last one now . Maybe it sounds like faint praise , but for an annualised franchise to achieve that is no small thing . The match engine 's been overhauled , but do n't expect to be wowed . Despite that new match engine offering ( a little ) more visual sparkle to the experience , it 's the backroom that plays host to the game 's more impactful changes . Previously player morale was an individual entity affected by results , playing time , injuries , or being fined two weeks ' wages over and over again by a belligerent manager . Now with a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the dressing room atmosphere is a manageable attribute with a series of meters and everything . In the best way possible , it 's an absolute nightmare . Example : upon achieving promotion from the ignominy of Vanarama North football to the Vanarama National league , I splashed the cash during the next summer at York City and brought in no less than seven players intended to play first-team football . The result was a large-scale revolt from my entire squad , who believed ' top influencers ' David Ferguson and Josh Law had been treated unfairly through my failure to reassure them about their place in the team . In other words , because I ticked off two key members of the core social group , all the other members got on my case . The repercussions of this were a poor dressing room atmosphere ( lower morale all round ) , low match cohesion ( players lacking vision and teamwork ) , and a dent in my managerial support ( one step closer to the job centre ) . Good results , however , will make @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ does is force you to weigh up whether you 'll get better results with a hot new player and some irked team-mates , or the same old squad playing in harmony . This has always been a consideration , of course , but rather than trying to second-guess an opaque algorithm in prior instalments , now you 're studying actual data as you go about it . Speaking of that : scouting is a more involving process now , too . After compiling a report on a particular player , your scouts will give them an overall rating out of 100 in addition to the old five-star system . This is a good thing . Firstly because it gamifies the act of uncovering a great player - the satisfaction of seeing that big green ' 100 ' is akin to finding an in-form card in FIFA 's FUT . Secondly , that number factors in the player 's tendencies , asking price , contract demands , experience levels ... ad infinitum . More than just an indicator of ability , it 's an all-encompassing number that tells you how @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ club . And with so many other vagaries to manage , in the dressing room and on the pitch , that 's nice to have . It does all hinge on having decent scouts in the first place , mind you . Neglect your backroom , and you 'll end up with a squad of Thomas Brolins and Klebersons . Data analysts and sports scientists have also allegedly found their roles expanded this year , although frankly I did n't feel their impact . Admittedly I got a kick out of asking the squares on the York City board to even hire them in the first place , picturing scenes from Moneyball in my mind as I did so . But the reality is less high-fiving Jonah Hill and more ' some extra panels on the scout report ' . And menus still look like menus . Obviously . With all the off-pitch agonising and inbox-battling done with , the action on the turf is as enjoyable and realistic as it 's ever been . That still leaves plenty of room for ' nothing like a real @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bridging the chasm . The new mocapped player animations add a lot of drama to no-look passes , surging headers and volleyed shots , and during the lulls between scoring chances players behave more like human beings . Occasionally a defender will stand stock still in possession of the ball , apparently momentarily frozen by panic , until a baffled opposing striker comes to dispossess them . And more than occasionally attempted crosses will end up going so awry that they force a save from the keeper . And as for the keepers , they 're noticeably more awkward in their transitions between animations , and sometimes seem to leap ten feet in the air to punch a ball over the bar . In these moments you 're reminded that the fantasy world you 've crafted for yourself over hundreds of hours is nothing but numbers being pitted against numbers , and that will always be FM 's biggest problem . The important thing is that it happens less often now , and straight away at the point of release it 's playing a believable game of football . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ engine - well , you wo n't be mistaking it for FIFA anytime soon . Sega stablemates Creative Assembly lent their expertise with large crowd rendering in the engine 's creation , and sure enough there 's some endearing detail in the way fans clap and spread their arms wide , chanting something presumably obnoxious . It 's a step forwards , but not the huge one you 'd imagine when you hear ' new match engine ' . Once again it 's the fantasy draft that takes the honours for Football Manager 's most compelling mode . Maximum budgets have been raised to a ? 500 million , and full league functionality has been added for up to 20 teams . It 's ironic that fantasy draft began as a way to enjoy the game without having to devote an entire planetary epoch to enjoy it , and has proved so enjoyable that SI are now expanding it into a more long-form experience . It 's still not perfect - the drafting process itself still feels like it takes too long , particularly with 20 managers . And @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , if your team is n't working it 's very difficult to discern why in the absence of backroom staff advice . Why an attacking trio consisting of Robert Lewandowski , Henrik Mkhitaryan and James Rodriguez was n't able to break down the defensive pairing of Harry Maguire and Kieran Trippier in 180 minutes of football is a question that will haunt me forever . Nonetheless , I 'm as engaged with my ? 500 million Primadonna FC squad as I am with dragging York City up to the prem . In the end it 's a combination of doing a handful of new things well and avoiding a long list of prior release day issues that earns Football Manager 2018 the privilege of a veteran player 's time all over again . The pace of its innovation might be slightly frustrating to those who make huge time investments every year , but if it was n't doing enough the compulsion to make that investment would evaporate . 50 hours in , the proof of the pudding is in my ' Just one more match , I promise ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

Retiring Williams driver Felipe Massa drove for the last time in front of his Brazilian home fans and was given a heartwarming message over team radio by his son .

Teams need protecting from themselves because they do n't seem to realise that a fragile grid of horrendously expensive cars in effectively three classes can only lead to extinction . There should be at least 24 reasonably matched cars from 12 teams on the grid who all make a sustainable profit and are building a valuable franchise .

It 's time to make up the right rules for F1 with a more level playing field , the right finances so we ensure the fastest and not the richest kids are filling every seat , and a mix of iconic and historic venues along with accessible and dramatic new tracks . All at a price the fans can justify .

Who would want ' I took Ferrari/Mercedes out of F1 because they would n't let me dictate the rules to our clear advantage ' on his CV ? Before going on to explain to the profit-hungry shareholders that they also refused new regulations which would turn F1 into a profit centre rather than a cost .

On the morning of the announcement of Australia 's same-sex marriage vote , I woke up in Malaysia . It was my birthday and I was on the island of Penang with some friends , celebrating a pal 's 40th . We had talked about what would happen if there was a no vote . I could see how it would pan out .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'Speaker of the House of Commons John Bercow' is the NP subject, 'has ruled' is V1, 'himself' is the NP object (a reflexive pronoun coreferential with the subject), and 'appearing on the show' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. This fits the atypical type of NP object as described in the sixth property, where the NP object is coreferential with the subject. The interpretation here is a prevention interpretation, as the subject is preventing himself from appearing on the show.

OUSTED Catalan president Carles Puigdemont is the first guest on former First Minister Alex Salmond 's new television show when it broadcasts today . Puigdemont 's wide-ranging and deeply personal interview was filmed at a secret location in Belgium , where he is currently in exile after being charged with rebellion , sedition and misuse of public funds . The Catalan government was sacked by Madrid after Puigdemont made a unilateral declaration of independence following a referendum in which an overwhelming majority of Catalans who voted said they wanted to leave Spain . Subsequent calls for mediation made by the Catalan president were rebuffed by Spanish prime minister Mariano Rajoy . In today 's interview with Salmond -- which aired for the first time at 7.30am on Russia Today and will go out twice more -- Puigdemont lays down three challenges . The first is a request to Rajoy to respect the result of elections being held next month -- called by the prime minister after the dissolution of the Catalan parliament -- even if it returns another positive result for those seeking independence . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and institutions to support the peaceful and democratic path to change -- the previous poll was marred by violence , as the Spanish national police and Civil Guard attempted to stop Catalans from voting . The third and final challenge Puigdemont will lay down is to the secretary-general of the United Nations , requesting that a Catalan representative is permitted to address the General Assembly It is the first major interview Puigdemont has ever conducted in English -- his fourth language . " I call on all Catalans to remain peaceful in the face of violence . In the end democracy will prevail , " Puigdemont says . The programme is also thought to feature interviews with two senior Tory and Labour parliamentarians on the subjects of sexism at Westminster and LGBT rights . Salmond 's decision to have his television show broadcast on Russia Today has attracted criticism from those who claim the channel is merely a mouthpiece for Russian president Vladimir Putin . " I am delighted with this first show , Salmond told The National . ' ' It demolishes the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ some sort of propaganda viewing for the Kremlin . ' ' ' ' The range of guests and the subject matter demonstrate a very different agenda . Maybe some will have the grace to eat humble pie . " Meanwhile , the Unionist parties are drowning in their own hypocrisy of criticising a show before they had even seen it and slating one in which their own parliamentary colleagues are strongly featured . People should remember RT UK is licensed by the broadcasting authorities and regulated by Ofcom . It ca n't broadcast propaganda even if it wanted to . " The former First Minister last night wrote to Prime Minister Theresa May to ask her to clarify her position on his new show after it was reported that a Downing Street source had urged Salmond to " reconsider " his involvement , reportedly saying : " As members of his own party have urged , Mr Salmond might do well to reconsider his curious decision to host a programme on Russia Today . " The quote was initially published on the Politics Home website and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ May to clarify if the quote reflects her position as Prime Minister . " Since the first of this series of programmes , produced independently by my own Scottish production company , Slainte Media Ltd , is due to be screened by RT UK tomorrow morning I require to know urgently if this accurately reflects your position as Prime Minister , " Salmond wrote . " I need hardly tell you that using the power of your office to seek to dissuade a private citizen from broadcasting on a channel which is duly licensed by the British broadcasting authority , Ofcom , carries with it the most serious possible implications for freedom of speech in this country . Will you now tell me by return if this is a genuine quote or not and whether it reflects your position as Prime Minister ?

The site , in the middle of a residential area , was previously owned by Warrington-based GallifordTry , who were given permission to build 38 apartments for the over 55s .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('anyone would rule themselves out of being Everton manager'). It involves a reflexive NP object ('themselves') coreferential with the subject ('anyone'), which is an atypical but acceptable type of NP object in the transitive out of -ing construction. The verb 'rule' can be interpreted as exerting force or pressure (type b), and the sentence gives rise to a prevention interpretation (preventing themselves from being Everton manager).

Everton interim boss David Unsworth was surprised by Sam Allardyce 's decision to rule himself out of the running for the vacant managerial post at Goodison Park and insists he will accept any decision the club make regarding the position . Unsworth was installed as caretaker manager when Ronald Koeman was relieved of his duties almost a month ago and is set to oversee the fifth game of his second spell in charge of the Toffees against Crystal Palace on Saturday ( 18 November ) . The former England manager claimed he did n't feel wanted by the Everton hierarchy , who are now pursuing Watford manager Marco Silva , but Unsworth can not understand why Allardyce would distance himself from Goodison Park , a place so close to his heart . " Well I have to say I saw that , and it surprised me that anyone would rule themselves out of being Everton manager , " Unsworth said in his press conference . " Everton is an amazing club with the best fans @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ job would be a surprise but that 's up to them .

The Everton interim boss has been in constant contact with chairman Bill Kenwright and has also spoken on numerous occasions to majority shareholder Farhad Moshiri , who are both aware of his thoughts on the managerial situation . " I 've spoken to the chairman every day , he 's been magnificent , " Unsworth said . " I 've spoken to Farhad three or four times , communication 's fine .

WHEN Mark Dallas was prowling the poolside as a lifeguard at a council-run swimming pool in Glasgow , the thought that just a few years later , he would be presiding over the biggest pro wrestling company in Britain seemed preposterous . It was the fact that he hated his job as a lifeguard that persuaded him to found Insane Championship Wrestling ( ICW ) , and when they started out with shows at Maryhill Community Centre in the north-west of Glasgow , in front of crowds of only 100 people , it was nothing more than a hobby for Dallas . Yet Dallas has created something that few could have imagined . ICW has exploded in recent years and tomorrow evening , will take over Glasgow 's Hydro Arena for ' Fear and Loathing X ' . Over 6000 tickets have been sold for the event , illustrating the resurgence that pro wrestling is currently experiencing in the UK . This is ICW 's second appearance at the Hydro after a storming debut last year , with this year @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Viper . Loading article content Dallas admits that he has built up enough experience -- and has enough faith in his wrestlers -- that his pre-show nerves are not quite as ferocious these days . " I get nervous trying to sell tickets more than the actual show , " he told Herald Sport . " I know my wrestlers are so good at what they do and I know the show is going to be great - no matter what , the wrestlers are going to deliver . " So my main worry is always getting people in the door . It did n't feel real until a couple of weeks ago and it 's always surreal driving past the Hydro knowing that we 'll be in there . But I 'm excited now . " While the rise of ICW has been meteoric , the early days showed few signs that Dallas could bring it this far . It started out as half hour shows , filmed on a hand-held camera , and put on YouTube . Then came the live events @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that Dallas moved to the city centre and attracted attention from a cable television channel . " Pretty much straight away , we became the highest-rated show on the channel , " he recalls . " I was still working as a lifeguard but it was then I thought I could make a living out of wrestling . " Dallas is a force of nature . The 32 year-old Glaswegian is keen to stress that the success of ICW is a team effort but without Dallas , there would be none of this . Pro wrestling , which was so popular in the 80s before disappearing from the mainstream entirely , has surged in popularity over the past decade and Dallas is in no doubt as to the part his company has played in this resurgence . " ICW is the reason for this resurgence , in my opinion , " he said . " We were part of a documentary that was shown nationwide and that had a large part to play in changing perception of what wrestling is . " ICW has played a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ days , people are not embarrassed to go to a nightclub and get a beer and watch wrestling with their pals . " For some , the thought of grown men and women spending their evening watching what is effectively a pre-determined match is baffling . But Dallas has created a show that is as entertaining as anything you will ever see and he strongly refutes any criticism that just because the result may not be spontaneous , it is any less worthwhile . " This one of the oldest art forms going like circus acts and ballet dancing , " he said . " The wrestlers are doing sequences where any wrong move means they could literally die . There are no other art form like this in the world . " Other athletes have an off season but these guys are working every day and performing sometimes two matches at the weekend . " You do n't get any other human beings like these guys . Their bodies are so banged up yet you 'll never see it on their face - a wrestler @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that 's incredible . " If people dismiss it for being fake then they 're stupid . That 's like going to the cinema and saying " this is rubbish , it 's made up " . If you heard someone say that you would ask if they were daft . " Yes wrestling is pre-determined and yes these guys are working together sometimes but that does not mean it is any less entertaining . " Dallas and ICW may be becoming regulars at the Hydro but the Glaswegian is keen to stress that he is not stopping here . ICW 's growth shows no signs of slowing and Dallas ' ambitions show no signs of being fulfilled yet either . " I am working on some things that will make us a lot bigger than we have ever been before and next year is going to be a huge year for us " he said .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'taken out of paying income tax' involves a passive construction with 'taken' as the main verb, but it does not clearly involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a state change (being removed from the obligation to pay income tax) rather than an action caused by a specific means as defined by the transitive out of -ing construction.

I WISH to rebut some of the claims made by Iain AD Mann ( Letters , November 16 ) . He seems to have missed the fact that many aspects of our society has made enormous strides in the last quarter of a century . For example we now have record numbers in employment ; more jobs ; more people taken out of paying income tax , benefiting the low-paid ; gay marriage ; record spending on the NHS and mixed sex wards in hospitals all but disappeared . We have had the rebalancing of public versus private sector employment to the benefit of the latter with consequential reduction in public spending and of course the economic uplift following years of abysmal failure in this area by the Labour Party -- contrary to Mr Mann 's assertion that the Conservatives are " making a mess " of the economy . In terms of Brexit nobody , save perhaps Mr Mann , thinks that the Government believes it can " demand " a good deal on leaving the EU , especially as the other 27 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . In addition there is no way that these other countries really want us to leave with a no-deal scenario , especially France and Germany who want and need a free trade arrangement with the UK just as much as we do and to suggest that we might resort to " special pleading " is tantamount to insulting our negotiating team . In the current age of 24-hour news reporting and social media it is inevitable that the means is scrutinised minutely before the end results are achieved and in this respect we all should have a little more faith in our current Government and leave the carping until the final deal is known . This also applies to the roll-out of Universal Credit which will turn out to be very successful in the long term . Loading article content I can not believe that Mr Mann , an ardent SNP supporter , really wants the current Government to fall on its sword , to be replaced inevitably by a Jeremy Corbyn-led centre-left administration which will drag us back a quarter of a century and beyond . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Giffnock . ASTONISHING . For the second year in succession , Scottish Conservative Party leader Ruth Davidson has been voted Herald Scottish Politician of the Year . The available evidence hardly supports that . To have 12 MPs at Westminster , out of 59 , pushing a bedraggled Labour Party into third place , is a doubtful achievement . Lok at it this way : had the SNP gone from one seat to 12 , the Conservatives would have been decrying that as a dismal failure -- but the SNP still has an overall majority of Scottish Westminster seats . And Conservative supporters must wait a further five years for the opportunity for meaningful success . The election campaign that Ms Davidson masterminded was a policy-free zone . Her pamphlets carried 20-plus derogatory references to " independence " or " separatism " , but not a squeak about her policies , or her vision for Scotland . She rode the punches coming from the Conservative Government at Westminster in the shape of issues such as the bedroom tax and the so-called rape clause regarding child benefit @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to introduce counter-measures at Holyrood , using the newly devolved welfare powers were sheer impertinence . She failed to recognise that the savings from these issues accrued to Westminster with zero coming here , and she failed to identify whether the cost should be met from savings from another programme , or from increased tax , yet she wades in with an incongruous attack alleging subterfuge by the SNP regarding the potential for the use of the new tax powers , completely ignoring the marked change in circumstances since the election . A picture of a glorious future for Ms Davidson as a candidate for UK premiership is being painted -- we wish her well . I demand a recount . Douglas R Mayer , 76 Thomson Crescent , Currie . I WOULD like to know how Ruth Davidson managed to win the Herald Scottish Politician of the Year Award ( " Davidson wins for second year in a row after reviving Tory fortunes " , The Herald , November 17 ) . She certainly got people to vote Conservative , on a single issue @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was all she spouted during the General Election . What new , exciting or even old and revamped policies did she mouth ? None , Nada . Nobody would have objected to her save the Union mantra if it had been a referendum on independence . But a General Election has to be about issues and policies , and right now no-one seems to know what her policies on various things are , apart from Brexit , and she switched sides on that extremely quickly . Does she have policies ? Or is she just going to blindly follow what her leader ( who ever that is going to be ) in Westminster says ? To be in Opposition your job is to provide stiff scrutiny of Government policy , and to produce workable alternatives to that of the Government , So far on that front , nothing , not even constructive criticism . How many keynote speeches has she delivered ? How many international dignitaries has she addressed ? How much constituency work has she undertaken , how many surgeries has she held ? The Politician @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ contributes to their constituency and electorate , not a politician that stands up once a week and nags at the Government . Jackie Baillie , Ivan McKee , Jeanne Freeman , Neil Bibby or George Adams -- for his enthusiasm for Paisley 's City of Culture 2021 bid -- would have been better choices as they all fight on local as well as national issues . Robert McCaw , 6 Hamilton Crescent , Renfrew . DID I detect a problem with British democracy during Prime Minister 's Question Time this week , as reported on the BBC News ? Ian Blackford , the SNP leader , asked once again a question about VAT being levied on Scotland 's emergency services ( " Emergency plea over VAT " , The Herald , November 16 ) . The Prime Minister 's response suggested the subject might form part of next week 's budget , but could not resist her well-rehearsed comment that the Scottish Government had been warned that setting up these national bodies would incur VAT . However , what really struck me was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could only say was a sneering attitude and referred to the fact that her Scottish MPs , sitting behind her , had lobbied her on the subject . This apparently carried much more weight than the arguments of the majority of Scottish MPs . Does that confirm that it is necessary to be part of the ruling party to have any chance of success in having any policy , no matter how worthy , adopted ?

Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers sent Leigh Griffiths on in the second half and was rewarded with the only goal of the game against Ross County Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers says his side were rewarded for a " moment of magic " from Leigh Griffiths against Ross County . Griffiths scored with a superbly-struck free-kick to extend Celtic 's record unbeaten domestic run to 64 games . " He can get a goal out of nothing , " Rodgers said . " He bent it into the top corner and it was a great goal . " " It was always going to be a tight game , away on the coldest day since I 've been here in Scotland . " Celtic dominated long spells of possession in Dingwall , but had to be patient to record the 1-0 win against the last side to prevent them winning an away game in the league . Ross County were well-organised and relentlessly hard-working , and the first shot on target in the game did n't come until the 55th @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the impressive home goalkeeper Aaron McCarey . Ross County goalkeeper Aaron McCarey played well for the home side in the 1-0 defeat to Celtic Rodgers felt his side were in command enough , though , to allow him to sacrifice a midfielder and send Griffiths on to play up front alongside Dembele . " We felt we were dominating the second half and could take off one of our midfielder players and put on an extra striker , " Rodgers said . " A lot of his free-kicks of late since scoring for Scotland have been hitting the wall , off the target or not working the goalkeeper , but that one was absolutely outstanding . " It 's a very good win for us , on the back of the international break , a lot of the players being away . You come to a team who had a good result the last time they played against Motherwell , they were buoyant from that and they had two full weeks to prepare . " The surface was n't great , looked a bit @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tempo down . We should have had a penalty in the first half , Callum McGregor was clearly impeded as he went to shoot , but overall three points , a clean sheet and an outstanding victory for us . " Rodgers was particularly pleased with the performance of midfielder Nir Bitton at centre-back , and although defender Jozo Simunovic was on the bench against Ross County the Celtic manager described him as " fit but not football fit " with Wednesday 's trip to face Paris St-Germain in mind . Ross County manager Owen Coyle was pleased with the work rate and tactical discipline of his players Ross County manager Owen Coyle felt his side deserved one point from the game , having worked so hard to restrict the visitors in the attacking third , and also having a penalty claim of their own late on . " We were tactically very disciplined against the ball , as we had to be . We had a very good shape and when we broke out we carried a threat , " Coyle said . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we continue to perform at that level then we 'll pick up many points as we strive to move up the league . " We were still running strong at the end trying to get the equaliser and we could possibly have had a penalty at the end . it hit Dedryck Boyata 's hand but I 'm not entirely sure if it was deliberate or not . " We got into dangerous areas out wide and maybe a better final pass is something we can look at . They poured their heart and their soul in and I ca n't ask any more of that .

Depsite two months on the sidelines , Pogba gave a man-of-the-match display ( Picture : Getty ) It took only a couple of minutes for Paul Pogba to show Manchester United exactly what they had been missing . Displaying no signs of rustiness , he effortlessly controlled a bouncing ball , laid it off , collected it again , dropped a shoulder and then spread the play out wide -- before directing the recipient where to pass next . It was the perfect summation of his role . Understandably , his goal and assist against Newcastle United will grab much of the attention of his comeback performance . In his absence , Pogba 's teammates had only scored two goals in their previous four Premier League matches . With him back in the side their swagger -- and the sense of inevitability in front of goal -- returned . In an hour with Pogba on the field , they scored more goals than the previous 360 minutes without him . Only Lukaku and Martial have scored more goals for United than Pogba this season ( Getty ) His goal was a simple tap-in , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the campaign in before being sidelined with a hamstring injury . He is learning to sniff out opportunities , while his movement to exploit the gaps left by the striker 's ahead of him is improving . The long-range efforts that used to excite and frustrate in equal measure have been toned down just a notch . Incredibly , in his last six Premier League appearances , he has now been directly involved in eight goals ( scoring four and laying on as many for his teammates ) . For a midfielder who so often plays in the axis of a 4-2-3-1 , that is truly remarkable . The assist that got United back on level terms on Saturday was a delicate and fleet-footed piece of skill that belies the more obvious labels he gets tagged with regarding his power and physicality . He can gobble up the ground , certainly , but -- particularly as he eased his way back into the first team with a slightly less all-action display than normal -- the strengths that shone through most were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ His dinked cross to the back post for Anthony Martial , having already left Isaac Hayden wading in sludge , was testament to how much the rest of the United side now look to Pogba for inspiration and leadership . When they needed a way back into the game , he stepped up . Even after he was substituted he still played the role of cheerleader , roaring as loudly as anyone when Romelu Lukaku ended his seven-game barren run . He provides so much control in the middle of the pitch , while he is even more important to the balance of the team -- a buzzword Jose Mourinho is so fond of -- than Nemanja Matic . United will keep clean sheets with or without the Serb , they did for most of last season , but they find it far harder to break teams down without Pogba . The Frenchman orchestrates every move , dropping into space , making himself available , getting on the ball and dictating the tempo . At @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the outside of his boot to Martial in what is surely one of the more outrageous switches of play you will see this season . As well as his football skills , United have clearly missed Pogba 's leadership and influence ( Getty ) That quality and invention oozed out of everything he did , despite being out of action for two months and facing significant pressure from Jonjo Shelvey and Hayden who tried to get in his face early on . They failed . When United were strangling Newcastle with their pressure and possession , it was Pogba with his foot on their throat . He is the passing metronome and heartbeat of the side ; without him it 's not been clear if United 's attack still had a pulse . Rio Ferdinand dissects Newcastle 's goal on BT Sport : ' They needed the midfielders to help . I thought Matic and Pogba needed to do more there to get back and identify the danger . Go there and get to the back four to snuff @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that quick enough . ' Of course , it was not a totally faultless display . Part of the reason Pogba makes United so much more threatening going forward is because his somewhat liberal approach to team shape and discipline leaves them -- and the game as a whole -- more open . For the opening goal , he could have done more to see the danger , drop back in and help his defence . But with Lukaku scoring again , and Zlatan Ibrahimovic making his first appearance since April , this is starting to feel like the true beginning of United 's season . They 've overcome the worst of their injuries -- save for Eric Bailly and Phil Jones -- and are now looking properly menacing again . But most fearsome of all is the string-puller at the heart of everything good they do , and Pogba 's immediate impact will please Mourinho more than the result itself . |

A good sense of humour features high on dating websites as a desirable quality ( " GSOH " ) , but with the 70-year marriage of the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh , it is more a case of SSOH -- a shared sense of humour . Those who know the couple best say it has been their enduring ability to laugh at the same things that has sustained their partnership over decades of intense scrutiny in the public spotlight . " You have to list companionship , friendship and shared experience as having seen them through to this remarkable anniversary , " says Jennie Bond , former BBC royal correspondent , " as well as a very deep love between them . But a big part of what has kept them going over so many years is the fact they can share a joke together .

When the Queen and the Duke finally got back to land , everyone was expecting them to look traumatised or frostbitten , but instead you could n't mistake the amusement on their faces at the whole episode . " Because they spend some much of their time going from one stage-managed event to another , planned down to the nth degree , Bond suggests it " tickles " them both when things go wrong . " It is how they have survived being on show for so long .

On occasion , the two sides of her have overlapped , usually when the Duke of Edinburgh is around . An early picture of the couple , taken in Wales in May 1963 while watching soldiers at a military camp , has the Queen almost doubling up with laughter at something her husband , standing behind her , has said . And in April 2003 , she was inspecting the Queen 's Company of the Grenadier Guards at Windsor Castle . As their Colonel , Prince Philip was in attendance in full ceremonial uniform , including a bearskin . The cameras caught the moment as she walked past him , his face still but a glint in his eyes , which sets her off giggling . " That was all to do with presence of a bee , " explains Hugo Vickers , biographer of both the Queen Mother and Princess Alice of Greece , the Duke 's mother . " It 's a good illustration of how Prince Philip has always seen it as his role to keep his wife 's spirits @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about things . It is what makes them such a good double act . " Queen Elizabeth II gets a fit of the giggles as she walks past her husband Prince Philip , standing to attention in his uniform and bearskin hat at Buckingham Palace in 2005Credit : Anwar Hussein/Getty Images The Duke even has a pet name for her . The rest of her close family may call her Lilibet , but he apparently refers to our sovereign as " Cabbage " . This was revealed by screenwriter , Peter Morgan , at the launch of his 2006 film , The Queen . He said he had got it on good authority from Buckingham Palace staff and therefore had included a scene where James Cromwell , playing the Duke , orders Dame Helen Mirren 's Queen " Move over , cabbage " as they get into their double bed . Over their 70 years together , there has been plenty of evidence of a private intimacy , even when in a crowd , that is created by knowing what the other is thinking -- and finding @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ record her first-ever televised Christmas message in 1957 , she was racked with nerves and froze in front of the cameras .

The Queen and Prince Philip share a joke during a visit to Tuvalu in 1982Credit : Tim Graham To everyone else in the room , his words meant nothing when read out to Her Majesty , but it made her smile . The ice was broken and the recording could go ahead . The private reference was to what courtiers have described as the " screams of laughter " from the Queen when her husband would run up and down corridors brandishing a pair of false teeth to amuse her and their young children . That shared schoolboyish humour -- later said to have been inherited by their son , the Duke of York , who would put a whoopee cushion on the Queen Mother 's chair -- was very much in evidence @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In 1951 , on another tour of Canada , which entailed long rail journeys from one event to another , the Duke is reported to have sent his valet to a joke shop to buy an imitation tin of nuts . He then placed it on the table between them in the royal train . When the Queen opened it to reach in for a snack , a toy snake popped out -- to her delight . The Queen and Prince Philip at Windsor Castle during the Irish president Michael Higgins 's state visit in 2014Credit : REX/Shutterstock His humour can be slapstick , and it can be dry , especially when he wants to apply balm to stressful situations . In 1964 , the Queen chose to have a home birth with her last child , Prince Edward . A guest bathroom at Buckingham Palace was therefore commandeered for the occasions . Prince Philip was present for the birth and , as the labour went on for longer than expected , decided to lighten the atmosphere by remarking to his wife : " It 's a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Gaulle was having a bath in this room ... " The Duke 's asides are , of course , not always to everyone else 's taste . He enjoys a reputation for putting his foot in it . At a reception in 2010 to welcome Pope Benedict to Edinburgh , he caused outrage when he asked the then Scottish Tory leader , Annabel Goldie , if she had any tartan knickers . " That is just the Duke trying to break the ice , " says Bond . " Again , it is that reflex of his to use humour to protect the Queen on such occasions . She can be quite standoffish , so he plunges in with people with this very dry sense of humour . Occasionally , though , he not only breaks the ice , but falls through it . " If something is said to the Queen at a reception that amuses her , she might reply : ' How very unusual ... ' And , adds Vickers , the Queen herself is not above uttering the occasional dry remark in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and her enormous skill is her restraint , but if something is said to her at a reception that amuses her , she might reply : ' How very unusual ... ' " With her staff , she is said to be adept at teasing while keeping a straight face . Philip Moore , later ennobled and her personal private secretary from 1977 to 1985 , described how Her Majesty once asked to look over Buckingham Palace 's household accounts to make some economies . When he asked her what she had decided , she replied , as if serious , that she thought they might cut back on ink by stopping dotting the i 's and crossing the t 's in correspondence . And there is even a story -- never confirmed -- in some royal biographies that the Queen is not above slapstick herself . She is said to have installed a speaker in one of the bathrooms in Buckingham Palace 's private quarters . When someone sat on the toilet , it played a recording of her voice saying : " Do you mind @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their annual summer holiday to Balmoral , the royal couple can relax and allow their public and private faces to merge .

Outside the royal estate , too , that spirit has been captured by photographers . In 2007 , at the Braemar Highland Games during their summer break , in an unusually intimate picture , the Queen reaches out her arm towards Prince Philip as if to nudge him into sharing whatever joke it was that amused her . On another occasion , at the same gathering , the two of them are sitting snugly under a tartan rug , with their eldest son , Prince Charles , alongside them , chuckling away . These are the rare glimpses that reveal an often hidden side of their marriage .

On Sunday night , an image of the singer went viral with many outlets and Internet users claiming that the Pink was n't feeling the " Your Body " singer 's medley to the late Houston . However , Pink was quick to shut down that nonsense . Between her two performances , the singer reposted a tweet by Mark Sundstrum , which said , " @Pink and @Xtina deaded their beef last year and have been FRIENDS since , respecting each other 's amazing talent as grown women . stop creating something out of nothing @TheShadyFacts . " Along with the retweet , the mother of two wrote , " Yes . THIS . Christina f--king killed it tonight for one of our favorite singers ever . This about Whitney , and I am in awe of Christina 's talent . Show the clip where I 'm in tears , you negative Nancy 's sic . " Christina and Pink have famously feuded in the past , but earlier this year Pink Twitter to explain that they 'd made amends and moved on . Yes . THIS . Christina fucking killed it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about Whitney , and I am in awe of Christina 's talent . Show the clip where I 'm in tears , you negative Nancy 's ? ? ? ? ? ? https : //t.co/5Lroq73xrQ During tonight 's American Music Awards , Christina , who was introduced by Academy Award winner Viola Davis , hit the stage to sing a medley of Houston 's hit songs from the 1992 film The Bodyguard . The songstress wowed the crowd with covers of " I Will Always Love You , " I Have Nothing " " Run to You " and " I 'm Every Woman . " Despite the " grimace " photo of Pink , the performance brought the audience to its feet with many singing along to the chart-topping tunes sung by the late singer , who died on Feb. 11 , 2012. |

DAVID Flitcroft has branded the scheduling of Swindon Town 's League Two fixture at Grimsby tomorrow night as " ridiculous ' ' , believing not enough thought has been put into the effect on the well-being of players and financial health of clubs . Town , who took their unbeaten run in all competitions to seven matches with a 2-1 win at Yeovil on Saturday , will run out at Blundell Park less than 72 hours after coming off the pitch in Somerset , with a couple of hefty bus journeys thrown in for good measure . Flitcroft and his staff will break up the journey by including a training session at Rotherham on the way up , but admits he is at a loss to understand why such a long-distance contest has been arranged in midweek , three days after Town had already hit the road for the albeit shorter trip to Huish Park . " It 's very poor from the authorities . I do n't know how they got it so wrong .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'out of hiding' is a prepositional phrase indicating the source or origin of the action 'steps'.

It 's the episode that both Dean and Jensen were waiting for , since they 're both avid western fans . We see Dean relishing in his knowledge of cowboys and outlaws as soon as the guys check into their Wild West-themed hotel . That cowboy love is put to good use when Dean recognises their monster as Dave Mather , a Wild West outlaw and gunslinger for the Dodge City gang . This is n't the first episode where Dean was able to embrace some western culture . In the season six episode Frontierland Dean travelled back in time and relished in the whole experience . Plus , it 's no secret that Jensen Ackles himself is a bit of a cowboy aficionado . This episode was lighter in tone , considering we had a ghoul masquerading as an outlaw from hundreds of years ago . There were a lot of elements here that were very fun character moments , such as the snakeskin boots slo-mo Jensen described . In fact , Dean really got to shine here . This was definitely his episode . Other notable Dean moments were when Jack wakes him @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Dean sleepily wielding a gun and then even more cranky sipping his coffee . These are moments I 've not seen before and it 's nice to get some fresh character development thirteen seasons later . One major shift for Dean was when he tried to help Jack after the accident outside the bank . He 's understanding and realistic -- he , Sam and Castiel have made fatal mistakes before too , so it would be rude for them to pretend otherwise . Dean even corrects Jack , who says he 's a monster . Dean as of three or four episodes ago would never have been that understanding . A little note on characters before we dive into the heavy stuff : I really liked Athena the undertaker in Dodge City . Her pin-up girl style , listening to music while working on dead bodies and her attitude when people bother her at work said ' girl power ' to me . Of course , she ends up being a damsel in distress , but at least I got to enjoy her independent spirit before then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ alright , but I would have liked a little more fleshing out on his character to make him more interesting . Why was Mr Mather his favorite shape to take ? Is he as big a cowboy fan as Dean Winchester ? Like any young man , Jack suddenly has to face consequences for a major mistake . It 's a shame -- we finally saw Jack confident and cool tempered , relishing in his ability to psychically float a pencil and research a case just like he observed Sam and Dean do . But because of Jack 's confidence , he oversteps during the shootout scene outside the bank between the Winchesters and Mather . He steps out of hiding and telepathically shoves Mather away , but also catches the guard to the bank . The blast kills the guard , and sends Jack back into his age-old moral dilemma on whether or not he can be good . During the ride back to the bunker , Castiel explains that he 's killed innocents before too , including friends . He does n't sugarcoat it . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Sam too , owns up to his own past indiscretions . This moment is important , because it shows that they do n't look down on Jack -- in fact , they sympathise with the toll this mistake will put on Jack . This scene was also crucial as a sort of father-son talk . I look forward to the bonding that happens between them as well as Jack 's further growth as a character as he figures out his powers and his place in the world . The most claustrophobia-inducing part of the episode occurs when Dean looks down the hole in the graveyard where Sarge has just been taken by the ghoul . Dean has a moment where he says " I do n't wan na -- oh okay " and he backs out of the hole only to go back in . Seeing a vulnerable Dean is something we do n't see often , plus it was a nice bit of comic relief . This vulnerable Dean , plus the absolute goofy cowboy afficionado added new layers to a character who had mostly been the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ seasons . I 'm delighted to see new sides to these characters , and I hope to see much more as season 13 progresses . It is , afterall , a season of second chances and new viewpoints . Why not ? |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'took him out of training' involves removing someone from an activity, but it lacks the -ing form in the VP2 predicate and does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as defined for the transitive out of -ing construction.

New Zealand have been hit by a second outbreak of mumps on their tour but are confident it has been contained before their final match against Wales on Saturday . The flanker Ardie Savea is in isolation in the All Blacks ' Cardiff hotel after being diagnosed with the virus despite being vaccinated as a boy . He follows the wing Reiko Ioane , who contracted it earlier on the tour and after recovering , injured a shoulder in the win against Scotland last Saturday . " Ardie has been in isolation for a few days and must have been in close proximity to Rieko at some point , " said the assistant coach , Ian Foster . " It has caught us on the hop a bit because it is not something that you get a lot of . We are taking it seriously and the doctor reacted really quickly .

" Read was criticised by the Scotland assistant coach , Dan McFarland , for a cynical act at Murrayfield that denied the home side a try . " I do not agree with that , " Foster said . " There was a spell when we were put under pressure and were penalised a lot . We infringed more than we would have liked and have to learn from that but Kieran 's record shows he is not cynical .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'out of' in a different context, describing the nature of the articles rather than indicating a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of keeping' does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate, and there is no NP object functioning as a causee.

Capitalism is about selling stuff to people that want stuff ( Source : Getty ) Sarah May , James Delingpole Was Paperchase right to stop advertising in the Daily Mail after backlash from campaigners ? Since the 1920s , newspapers have relied on advertising revenue over circulation in their business models . The transition to digital has only strengthened this . So a primary purpose of newspapers is to promote the brands that advertise in them . Healthy circulation figures , such as those of the Daily Mail , may be enticing , but advertising is more than informing people about your products . Brands rely on promotions to communicate their values , so the values of the paper have to match . Advertisers call the shots . The Daily Mail has the oldest demographic in the UK . Paperchase is a brand with a young and positive feel . The Daily Mail regularly publishes toxic , inflammatory articles out of keeping @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ showed the mismatch , so Paperchase protected its brand from negative association . Other brands will follow suit . Journalism business models are fragile . If the Daily Mail wants to be funded by respectable brands , it needs to publish respectable journalism . I 'm surprised this is even a topic for debate in any newspaper that is n't the Guardian , the Independent , or the Socialist Worker . Capitalism is about selling stuff to people that want stuff -- and profiting thereby . If you 're suddenly going to decide for the most random of reasons to diss and reject a good half of your potential market , you simply do n't deserve to be in the game . Yet that is what Paperchase has just done . By caving to Stop Funding Hate , it has effectively endorsed this ugly pressure group 's hard-left , anti-free-speech , anti-market philosophy . Worse , it has sent a clear signal to the millions of ordinary , perfectly decent people who enjoy reading the Daily Mail and agree with its politics : " sorry , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this backfired horribly in the US recently for the coffee machine maker Keurig . I hope that Paperchase is about to learn the same harsh lesson . The business of business is business . Social Justice Warrior politics can stay in the subsidised student bar . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of training a winner' is not a VP[-ing] predicate but rather a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', similar to the examples in (7a) and (7b).

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'Louis van Gaal' is the NP subject, 'rule' is V1, 'himself' is the NP object, and 'taking the job' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. The NP object 'himself' is coreferential with the subject, which is an atypical but acceptable type of NP object in the transitive out of -ing construction. The interpretation is prevention, as the subject is preventing himself from taking the job. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Photo : PA Lewis Hamilton aimed a jibe at Sebastian Vettel after the German joked his rival did not have to overtake anyone en route to winning his fourth world championship . Hamilton , 32 , arrives here in Abu Dhabi for the final round of the season hoping to see out the year in style after he beat Vettel to the title with three rounds to spare . Hamilton and Vettel were locked in an intense battle for much of the year with the Yas Marina circuit expected to be the venue for this season 's championship decider . But Vettel 's fight sensationally imploded during the second half of the campaign , while Hamilton roared to victory at five of the six grands prix following the summer break , to all but seal his fourth title . Hamilton sealed the World Championship in Mexico . Credit : PA Hamilton - a winner of nine races this year compared to Vettel 's five - can also boast to having passed Vettel @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and in America last month - both of which led to the Mercedes driver winning the race . In stark contrast , Vettel has failed to make a move stick on his rival once . Asked to recall his favourite pass of the season , Hamilton said : " I have a very bad memory , so I do n't remember much before last month 's race in Austin . " Vettel , sitting to Hamilton 's right , interrupted . " There is n't much to remember when you do n't have to pass that many people , " he said , implying that Hamilton 's super-quick Mercedes had helped to ease his path to championship glory . Hamilton bit back . " I passed you a couple of times , " he replied . " They were the exciting ones . The closer races we had were the ones I enjoyed the most . " Hamilton had passed Vettel in Spain earlier this year . Credit : PA In a playful press conference , Hamilton and Vettel also reflected on their biggest flashpoint @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wheels with Hamilton after he wrongfully believed his rival had brake-tested him . The Ferrari driver was penalised during the race and later hauled in front of the FIA , with the governing body warning him over his future conduct . Vettel joked : " I should get Move of the Year , Personality of the Year , and what was the last award ? Fair play ? OK , maybe not that one , but the first two for Baku . " Vettel ended his four-month losing streak with victory in Brazil a fortnight ago as Hamilton recovered from last to fourth after he crashed out of qualifying . After winning in Brazil , Vettel will aim to finish the season strongly in Abu Dhabi . Credit : PA But the Englishman , who was given a guard of honour by the throngs of Mercedes employees at the team 's Northamptonshire bases in Brackley and Brixworth earlier this week , has promised to go out with a bang in Abu Dhabi . " We have this battle of wanting to get ahead of each @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ try and finish the season off as strongly as I have been in the second half of the year , " Hamilton added . " Sebastian won the last race and I do n't want to give him this one .

SAM MORSHEAD : Head coach urged batsmen to bat big ... but it was a case of what might have been in Brisbane Trevor Bayliss had warned England ... and not exactly long enough ago that any of his batsmen can claim to have forgotten . It was November 12 when the tourists ' head coach identified one of the most critical factors in any potential series success in Australia . " The number one thing for us is that 60s are not enough . We need 160s , " he said . Hardly a revolutionary notion , of course , but one steeped in significance . England needed to bat big , bat long and bat sensibly once the Ashes got under way . They needed not to get carried away and not to offer their wickets cheaply . For most of Thursday and a great deal of the opening session at the Gabba on Friday , Bayliss 's men heeded his words .

Then there was the tail . England 's perseverance was creditable - each of the Ashes debutants made half-centuries , their second-wicket stand was bigger than any the visitors managed in the whole of the last Ashes series Down Under , this team already have more 50-plus first-innings partnerships than their counterparts of four years ago and in their first outing of 2017/18 the English batting line-up lasted more overs than in any of their 10 attempts in 2013/14 - yet after four sessions that feeling of fragility still remained . Whether the reasons for that are more mental or technical is up for debate , but as it stands Australia will never feel batted out of the game . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'selling out of steelmaking' where 'steelmaking' is a noun, not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('Nine policemen' + 'intimidate' + 'an 18-year-old woman' + 'out of reporting'). It involves a prevention interpretation ('intimidate...out of reporting'), where the policemen are preventing the woman from reporting the rape. The verb 'intimidate' fits into the category of exerting force or pressure (category b). The NP subject ('Nine policemen') is an animate agent, and the NP object ('an 18-year-old woman') is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate ('reporting'). Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Nine policemen turned up at hospital to intimidate an 18-year-old woman out of reporting that two of their colleagues raped her while she was handcuffed in the back of a police van , a lawyer has claimed . Anna Chambers was being treated for the rape at Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn , New York in September when the officers allegedly turned up at around 10pm . ' They came with nine cops to intimidate her and her mom , to discourage them from coming forward and reporting the rape and sex assault , ' her lawyer Michael David told The New York Post . One in particular questioned her story and allegedly told her mother in her native Russian : ' Your daughter does n't know what she 's talking about . ' Anna Chambers has accused two NYPD officers of raping her in the back of a police van David said : ' He kept saying to Anna and her mom , ' How do you know they were real cops ? ' ' The officer then allegedly asked : ' Did n't you make complaints about cops before ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cops because they had guns , handcuffs , and the police radio was on . David said the officer was trying to cover his name tag to hide his identity and at one point became so insistent that he nearly chased Miss Chambers ' mother into the women 's bathroom . A nurse at the hospital from where the rape was reported told the mother to stay strong for her daughter in the face of the alleged intimidation . Miss Chambers went ahead with a sexual assault forensic exam which found DNA from both the officers she accuses . Officers Eddie Martins , 37 , and Richard Hall , 32 , have resigned after being suspended without pay following their arrests in October . They allegedly took turns to force Miss Chambers to perform a sex act on them and rape her in the back of a police van after arresting her for possessing drugs .

David said that cops trying to cover up their colleagues ' alleged crimes by intimidating victims was almost as bad as the crime itself . Martins and Hall were released after posting $250,000 and $150,000 bail , respectively . Both were ordered to return to court on January 18 , 2018 . If convicted , they each face up to 25 years in prison . In court , their defense lawyers said they were planning to fight the charges . ' We do n't believe they have the evidence to support the majority of charges that are alleged , ' said Mark Bederow , who represents Martins . The defense team hinted that the alleged victim 's social media postings @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in skimpy outfits , could be used to dispute her claim that she was forced to have sex with the officers . Attorney Michael David , who represents the 18-year-old woman , responded by hitting out at his adversaries for engaging in victim-blaming . ' Whatever she posts , however she dresses , whatever she does , has nothing to do with the brutal rape that was done on her , ' he told PIX11 . ' They should stop smearing her , they should stop shaming her , they need to stop blaming this victim . ' David also said that his client was ' not happy ' that Martins and Hall were freed on ' low bail , ' and described her to NBC New York as ' an emotional wreck . ' On Monday , the 18-year-old shared a link to a story about her alleged assailants ' resignation from the NYPD , accompanied by a status update that simply read : ' ! ! ! ! ! !

' We will now seek to hold them accountable for this flagrant betrayal of public trust . ' The 18-year-old victim , who tweets under the name Anna Chambers , alleges that one NYPD detective raped her and both forced her to perform oral sex in a Chipotle parking lot after she was caught smoking marijuana on September 15 . The woman confirmed to DailyMail.com that she is the victim and gave permission for her name and photos to be published . A grand jury voted to indict the officers after listening to a week of testimony , including the accuser taking the stand . The two detectives , assigned to the NYPD 's Brooklyn South Narcotics , did not deny the sexual acts but claimed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ article Share According to a press release from the DA 's office , on September 15 , at around 7.30pm , Martins and Hall , who were on-duty and riding in a Dodge Caravan as part of a team of plainclothes detectives conducting a buy-and-bust operation in the 60th Precinct , left their post without authorization and drove to Calvert Vaux Park in the Gravesend section of Brooklyn . Just after 8pm , the officers pulled over an Infinity Coupe driven by the 18-year-old accuser with two male passengers , according to Gonzalez 's office . After observing some marijuana in a cup holder , Hall and Martins ordered the two men and woman to get out of the car and asked if they had any drugs on them , according to the investigation . The 18-year-old woman admitted to be in possession of marijuana and two Klonopin pills , after which the detectives put her in handcuffs , told her she was under arrest and would be getting a desk appearance ticket . They let her male companions go and instructed them to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' time , according to the press release . A short time later , the detectives told the teenager to call her friends and tell them not to follow their police minivan . ' Detective Martins allegedly told the young woman he and his partner are ' freaks ' and asked her what she wanted to do to get out of the arrest , ' the press release stated . It is alleged that Martins then forced the handcuffed girl to perform a sex act on him while seated in the back seat of the van as his partner Hall drove and watched through the rear view mirror . Martins then allegedly raped the victim . When the cops reached Bay Ridge , about 4 miles from the site of the traffic stop , Martins and Hall allegedly swapped places , with the former getting behind the wheel and the latter getting into the back seat , where he allegedly forced the 18-year-old to perform a sex act on him as well . Martins and Hall then drove back to the vicinity of the 60th @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ friends again to tell them she was being let go . ' They allegedly gave her back the Klonopin pills , told her to keep her mouth shut and released her , ' the statement read .

DNA recovered from the victim was a match to both Martins and Hall . After the allegations broke they and their supervisor were placed on modified duty and stripped of badges and guns . Martins ( pictured left ) and Hall did not deny they had sex with the woman ( right ) , but claimed it was consensual . They have been suspended without pay Hall ( pictured right with his lawyer ) and Martins allegedly told the victim they were ' freaks ' Mark Bederow , Martins ' attorney , said : ' The dynamic will change when there are court proceedings . The allegations repeatedly and publicly alleged by the plaintiff 's lawyer will need to be supported @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ indictment comes after the officers spent last week attempting to discredit their accuser in a letter to prosecutors . The letter observed how she filed a $50million claim against the city earlier this month and has posted ' provocative ' selfies on her Instagram and Twitter after the alleged attack . The defense lawyers for the officers urged prosecutors ' to further investigate Chambers ' dubious claim before you ask the grand jury to return an indictment against Martins and Hall . ' The teen took to Twitter to express her dismay that the officers claimed the sex acts were consensual , including sharing a DailyMail.com article about the horrifying claims . ' She was shocked that the cops would say it was consensual after everything that was done to her . She wanted to get the word out , ' her lawyer Michael David told the New York Post . ' She just wants everybody to know it 's an absolute lie that this was consensual . She was raped . She was viciously , brutally raped in handcuffs .

' There was zero consent , ' David said . ' The cops were over 6 feet tall . She 's very petite , like 5-2 and maybe 100 pounds . There 's nothing she could do . ' One of the male friends she was with went to the police station about a half-hour after he was released by the cops .

As news filtered that the nation 's foreign minister , Walter Mzembi was holed up in the Cuban embassy in Harare ; his wife Barbara being from that island , the withdrawing of the Miss Tourism Zimbabwe licence from his wife Barbara has opened Pandora 's box . And with it a whole cache of secrets previously shrouded under a thin veil of uneasy diplomacy has been shred open . And while the minister is holed up in search of breathing space , ZTA boss , the feisty Karikoga Kaseke has blown Cuban cigar smoke into the hole threatening to choke the fugitive minister , as he alleges graft as being one of the reasons why the licence was revoked . " Mzembi 's wife flouted the terms of the agreement , one of whose terms was to mobilise resources for the event and make sure the corporate world got involved and made the event successful outside of government ; which was the reason why we licence it out , " said Kaseke . Instead , Barbara , whose winning of the licence was believed to be heavily due to the hand that Walter Mzembi @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and got US$80 000 for the event which was due to be held on December 9 this year . As a result the event hangs in limbo after the revocation of the licence . Walter Mzembi With his own hands , Kaseke personally stripped Barbra Mzembi , that Cuban beauty pageant lass of the licence for the event which is highly anticipated . Stark-naked of that licence , she can no longer discharge her duties . The event no longer is hers . Add to that , Kaseke alleges it was improper that government could be arm-twisted into giving such a whopping amount to a minister 's wife when other government programmes were being shelved owing to a lack of funding . But this revocation also brought to light a whole lot of dirt . And ugliness . And filth . " If I were to meet the President ( Cde ED Mnangagwa ) I would ask him to nip this in the bud where minister 's wives are seen addressing ministry staff and chairing meetings ; with ministers making ministries look like personal fiefdoms , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ off session . Yet there is background to the steam . This year Zimbabwe Tourism Authority staff have failed to go for the largest meeting of tourism players in the east , in China , the world 's largest tourism market , as they could not be afforded the $50,000 they needed to attend the showcase . Kaseke admitted that was part of his anger . Chiedza Mhosva " It is a big market and we failed to market ourselves there . The fact that the Mzembi 's themselves admitted that they got such a great amount of money from government for what should in essence be a private event for which they ought to have fundraised boggles the mind and it is not fair . People should not get preferential corrupt privileges because they know people in power . It is something the new dispensation should do away with , " he said . While Mzembi was known to always revel in the limelight , prancing around and twirling whenever Zimbabwe got international accolades presumably for performing well in the tourism sector , Kaseke said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " There is a leader then there is a loner . Mzembi was a loner . Anyone who seeks approval for everything and wants to be feted at every turn is a loner . People should work and not seek praise or want to cajole it out of his or her subordinates , " he said . And for the first time we can reveal the REAL issue behind the further souring of relations between Mzembi and Kaseke . While it is common knowledge that the ' carnival war ' was because sponsor ( Big Time Strategic Group Boss ) Justice Maphosa had pulled out of sponsoring Barbara 's event and kept on sponsoring the Harare International Carnival , with Kaseke digging in that he would continue eating the fruit of Maphosa to fund his carnival regardless , it is the backroom wars that may raise eyebrows . The beauty pageant had taken political shades ; " People went to the then First Lady Grace Mugabe and said Maphosa was funding regime change and yet we were going to negotiate with ZTA staff for funding for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ being implicated in political battles he was incensed and so he ought to have been . I wonder why people believed that man and it made working for the arts and for the country tough for all of us . " So big a tattle tale was Mzembi that he even implored the Chief Secretary to fire his feisty head of parastatal . " He wanted me fired . If I had done wrong he ought to have approached the board but because he had no leg to stand on he wanted to twist the Chief Secretary 's hand . He is a prudent man the CS for having ignored calls to heed him and keep me in my employ . " Karikoga Kaseke But challenged whether the whole idea to pull the rug from underneath the embattled Mzembi 's hooves at a time that he is fighting for political relevance and is down , Kaseke insists it is a fair attempt at retaining the integrity of the pageant . " Not at all . We want to give the licence to someone with integrity @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of disturbing the flow . They flouted our rules and we have been forced to cancel . My hand has been forced . " Mzembi has thrown everything the way of Kaseke . From Zodwa Wabantu 's underwear , or lack thereof at the height of the carnival with Anne Nhira as the lead pawn in the war , right down to the name change of the Harare International Carnival to Big Time in honour of the main sponsor ; anything and everything went . With a diamond spine that could n't be broken , Kaseke escaped unscathed and miraculously so . " It is difficult to respect a man who thought he was god 's gift to the world and thought he was the best thing ever to happen to Zimbabwe . We all have something to contribute and we should use our talents for the greater good and not manipulate others or do things to benefit ourselves in unprocedural means . " " What happened was criminal and they ( the Mzembi 's ) should never have gotten money from the treasury and we hope @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the name of the pageant he said . " Kaseke has in previous times refused to officially comment on the real issue behind his tiff with Mzembi . Now , exposing that he had been labelled a regime change agent and enemy of his government , it has become all to evident what really caused the longest and most brutal battle to be fought on the entertainment and arts landscape crossing the borders of government work . Mzembi , under a Havana flag , could not be reached for comment neither could his wife who no longer holds the beauty pageant licence . And as they prance around together , outside the embassy grounds and far beyond , Kaseke is yet again giving away the licence . " Anyone who is competent and has the resources is free to come and apply for it . The show must go on , " he says . For a beauty pageant , the hope is this is the last of anything ugly from what should be a feast of beauty , sensuality and splendour. -- Herald |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'get as much enjoyment out of reading her book' involves the verb 'get' with an NP object 'enjoyment', but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, nor does the NP object function as a causee. Instead, 'reading her book' is a gerund phrase serving as the object of the preposition 'out of', not a VP2[-ing] predicate with a causee.

A scathing critique of the British government 's conduct of the stalemated Brexit negotiations , compiled from reports by Irish diplomats in EU countries , slipped into the public domain last week . The timing of the leak was not coincidental . It precedes a critical heads-of-government summit in Brussels next month , when Theresa May is gambling the negotiating impasse will finally be broken . This summit is shaping up to be a watershed moment for Britain 's misconceived and ill-managed bid for a deal with the EU before the door slams shut a short 16 months from now . The impact of the Irish leak was twofold . The contempt privately expressed by some EU government officials for the flailing efforts of David Davis , the Brexit secretary , and Boris Johnson , the foreign secretary , provided further evidence that they are making an epic mess of things . That 's important in terms of the shifting mood in Britain , where public awareness of the unaffordable economic and social cost of Brexit , especially a hard Brexit , is growing by the day . The leak also helped remind Westminster of Dublin 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whose economy is uniquely dependent on exports to Britain and British transit routes . Such reminders are necessary . The extraordinary degree to which ministers have ignored , minimised or fudged the complex issues surrounding future border arrangements between Northern Ireland and the Republic is nothing less than scandalous . Nearly 18 months after Britain voted to leave the EU , we still do not have a clear idea how the reimposition of a " hard border " , which nearly everybody agrees would be a disaster , can be avoided . The government 's sub-par working paper in August merely revealed the extent of its cluelessness and inattention . It was rightly dismissed in Brussels as " magical thinking " . May and many in her party seem unable to grasp that the border issue is about a lot more than trade . At stake is the ability of people and communities to connect across an island whose bitter history of subjugation , division and injustice is never far from the surface . At stake is the integrity of the 1998 Good Friday agreement , the proud @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ At stake is future North-South co-operation and what the Irish term the " all-island economy " . At stake , potentially , is the amicable relationship between the UK and Ireland that has been painstakingly patched together amid the gravestones of centuries of tears and blood . When the EU taskforce dealing with Brexit and the border " mapped " , or listed , specific areas of collaborative political , economic , security , societal and agricultural activity that could be adversely affected , the total was a staggering 142 . They range from co-ordination on the ongoing paramilitary threat to cross-border ambulance services and bus routes . A resurrected post-Brexit border does not have to be physically imposed to still be deeply psychologically and socially damaging . The prospect of Ireland 's old dividing lines being revived and retrenched thanks to another English failure of imagination and leadership is morally repugnant . As a nation , we have been here before . Have we still not learned the lessons of our shameful Irish past ? Judging by the complacency oozing out of Downing Street , maybe not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , when it comes to Brexit , May betrays the legacy and achievements of her more competent predecessors . The government continues blithely to maintain that all this will somehow be sorted out , claiming that Britain and Ireland are on " the same page " . This is delusional and misleading . By declaring at the outset that , come what may , Britain would leave the single market and the customs union , May has effectively ruled out a whole range of possible compromises . She has boxed Britain into a wholly avoidable corner . And the Irish are not fooled . Suggestions by one senior minister that US-Canada border arrangements could be replicated are shot down by another minister , who points out that a physically defended , guarded and patrolled demarcation of that type would be unacceptable to Dublin and the EU . Hong Kong , with its one country , two-systems arrangement with China , is seen as another possible paradigm . Even the Isle of Man is mentioned . Yet for all this blather , the bottom line is unchanging . To avoid @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Michel Barnier , the chief EU negotiator , and all the unwanted knock-on effects , Northern Ireland must surely remain in the customs union and single market or , which is much the same thing , agree to abide by its rules .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'oozing out of' in a descriptive manner without an NP object or a VP2[-ing] predicate that would fit the transitive out of -ing construction. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

A scathing critique of the British government 's conduct of the stalemated Brexit negotiations , compiled from reports by Irish diplomats in EU countries , slipped into the public domain last week . The timing of the leak was not coincidental . It precedes a critical heads-of-government summit in Brussels next month , when Theresa May is gambling the negotiating impasse will finally be broken . This summit is shaping up to be a watershed moment for Britain 's misconceived and ill-managed bid for a deal with the EU before the door slams shut a short 16 months from now . The impact of the Irish leak was twofold . The contempt privately expressed by some EU government officials for the flailing efforts of David Davis , the Brexit secretary , and Boris Johnson , the foreign secretary , provided further evidence that they are making an epic mess of things . That 's important in terms of the shifting mood in Britain , where public awareness of the unaffordable economic and social cost of Brexit , especially a hard Brexit , is growing by the day . The leak also helped remind Westminster of Dublin 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whose economy is uniquely dependent on exports to Britain and British transit routes . Such reminders are necessary . The extraordinary degree to which ministers have ignored , minimised or fudged the complex issues surrounding future border arrangements between Northern Ireland and the Republic is nothing less than scandalous . Nearly 18 months after Britain voted to leave the EU , we still do not have a clear idea how the reimposition of a " hard border " , which nearly everybody agrees would be a disaster , can be avoided . The government 's sub-par working paper in August merely revealed the extent of its cluelessness and inattention . It was rightly dismissed in Brussels as " magical thinking " . May and many in her party seem unable to grasp that the border issue is about a lot more than trade . At stake is the ability of people and communities to connect across an island whose bitter history of subjugation , division and injustice is never far from the surface . At stake is the integrity of the 1998 Good Friday agreement , the proud @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ At stake is future North-South co-operation and what the Irish term the " all-island economy " . At stake , potentially , is the amicable relationship between the UK and Ireland that has been painstakingly patched together amid the gravestones of centuries of tears and blood . When the EU taskforce dealing with Brexit and the border " mapped " , or listed , specific areas of collaborative political , economic , security , societal and agricultural activity that could be adversely affected , the total was a staggering 142 . They range from co-ordination on the ongoing paramilitary threat to cross-border ambulance services and bus routes . A resurrected post-Brexit border does not have to be physically imposed to still be deeply psychologically and socially damaging . The prospect of Ireland 's old dividing lines being revived and retrenched thanks to another English failure of imagination and leadership is morally repugnant . As a nation , we have been here before . Have we still not learned the lessons of our shameful Irish past ? Judging by the complacency oozing out of Downing Street , maybe not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , when it comes to Brexit , May betrays the legacy and achievements of her more competent predecessors . The government continues blithely to maintain that all this will somehow be sorted out , claiming that Britain and Ireland are on " the same page " . This is delusional and misleading . By declaring at the outset that , come what may , Britain would leave the single market and the customs union , May has effectively ruled out a whole range of possible compromises . She has boxed Britain into a wholly avoidable corner . And the Irish are not fooled . Suggestions by one senior minister that US-Canada border arrangements could be replicated are shot down by another minister , who points out that a physically defended , guarded and patrolled demarcation of that type would be unacceptable to Dublin and the EU . Hong Kong , with its one country , two-systems arrangement with China , is seen as another possible paradigm . Even the Isle of Man is mentioned . Yet for all this blather , the bottom line is unchanging . To avoid @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Michel Barnier , the chief EU negotiator , and all the unwanted knock-on effects , Northern Ireland must surely remain in the customs union and single market or , which is much the same thing , agree to abide by its rules . As the Brussels showdown looms , the dire truth is that May and her chums still do not have an answer . They do not have a plan and appear not to have a clue . Step forward the Irish government , which , unlike the Brexiters , has been focused on the border all along .

Date published : November 27 2017 Despite holding off Lewis Hamilton to win in Abu Dhabi , Valtteri Bottas remains Mercedes number two -- at least according to the bookies . Bottas beats Hamilton , but bookies give insight into 2018 Martin Brundle summarised the importance of Valtteri Bottas 's third race victory after the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix , by highlighting that the Finn had beaten Lewis Hamilton in a straight fight through the entire weekend . For Hamilton , the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix was in effect a dead rubber , yet for Bottas it was a launchpad to prepare for 2018 . The bookmakers have already installed Hamilton as the Champion favourite for next season , with Sebastian Vettel second -- so it may be worth looking at betting sites which accept paypal . Bottas , however , is a distant 15-1 and behind both Red Bulls in the eyes of the bookies . Unlike with Nico Rosberg , Hamilton is clearly comfortable alongside Bottas , in large part , one suspects , because he just does n't see his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stone or missed opportunity ? With the 2018 regulations set to be largely unchanged , few would bet against Mercedes arriving in Australia at the head of the pack . Vettel said that Ferrari had a race of two halves , and was happy with the pace the car showed in the second phase of the grand prix . But by then he was already 20 seconds behind the Silver Arrows . Vettel 's three wins and three second places in the first six races of 2017 underlined Ferrari 's resurgence and return as title contenders . The SF70H 's radical sidepods and adaptability in setup , and some smart strategy calls all suggested that the Scuderia 's long wait for a title might be over . Yet the engineers at Maranello were unable to maintain the momentum through the year and this coupled with high-profile errors from Vettel ( Baku and Singapore ) and Mercedes ' raw speed meant that the Italian team was unable to maintain the challenge . Vettel , now 30 , has vowed that Ferrari will come back fighting next season but given @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there is a lot of work to be done . Renault 's mixed messages Nico Hulkenberg was lucky to get away with a lenient 5-second penalty for his off-track pass on Sergio Perez , and this created the opportunity for the German to finish best of the rest behind the Mercs , Ferraris and Red Bull of Max Verstappen . His P6 finish bagged Renault enough points to pip customer team Toro Rosso to finish sixth overall in the Constructors . Renault 's investment in the works Enstone team will demand better results from Hulkenberg and Carlos Sainz next year . Yet concerns about Renault 's consistency persist given the array of technical issues Renault-powered cars have faced in 2017 . The reduction in the number of power unit components in 2018 will put Renault reliability woes into sharper focus . No real race up front -- but the midfield and backmarkers make up for it Hamilton had one opportunity to challenge Bottas for the win after the Finn locked up . But as the Mercedes W08 struggles in the dirty air there was no way for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this could be a real worry for Mercedes next season -- if , and it 's a big if , Ferrari continues to improve and Renault offers Red Bull a little bit of extra grunt . With the leaders spread out , the best racing happened for the minor places . Lance Stroll 's early battle with Romain Grosjean brilliantly highlighted the Canadian 's improvement through the campaign . His jittery and panicked style in Melbourne has given way to a far more assured operator . Pascal Wehrlein , most probably in his last race in F1 , impressed in his battle against Kevin Magnussen , at one point getting his Sauber , powered by a 2016-spec Ferrari power unit , past the Haas , which uses the 2017 version . Other observations " Felipe , Fernando is faster than you . " Indeed . Fernando Alonso piloted his McLaren , which will now be shorn of Honda power , to ninth , one place ahead of Felipe Massa , who now enters retirement for the second time . Daniel Ricciardo failed to finish yet again @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ seems to be running out . Alonso has made a career out of making bad career moves , and the Australian will be eager to impress in 2018 to ensure he earns a top seat . Kimi Raikkonen 's pace relative to Vettel was poor , which continued the trend through the season . The Iceman 's twilight in the sport is as a firm number 2 driver -- who would have thought it considering his maverick approach in his first spell with McLaren . Second careers , as Raikkonen , Jacques Villeneuve and Michael Schumacher have showed are not easy . A penny for Robert Kubica 's thoughts as he prepares to test for Williams with a view to landing a race seat . Seventh and eighth was a reasonable return for Force India , with Perez edging Esteban Ocon on the day , just as he did in the Championship . The team are likely to struggle to finish fourth in 2018 given the changes at McLaren and Renault , but they have one of the best driver lineups on the grid , despite Perez @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ another . Of the lower order , Wehrlein 's performance was arguably most impressive . It 's a case of too little , too late , though , as the German is n't likely to be retained by Sauber who , for the first time in their history , finished last in the Constructors . Brendon Hartley and Pierre Gasly will be retained at Toro Rosso . The former qualified badly while the latter had a scrappy race . There 's work to be done , there . However , could the switch to Honda prove to be a masterstroke ? F1 unveiled their new logo on the podium . We see what they did there ... it 's sort of in the shape of a race track . Liberty Media is clearly keen on projecting a new image . But perhaps they should get live streaming sorted first . And then there 's the halo , track limits , lack of overtaking , and the rubbish stewarding. |

German public broadcasters have dropped plans to air concerts next year by ex-Pink Floyd musician Roger Waters , citing what they call " accusations of antisemitism against him " . Waters , part of one of the world 's most critically acclaimed and commercially successful rock bands from 1965 to 1985 before going solo , is a member of the Palestinian-led Boycott , Divestment and Sanctions movement ( BDS ) that targets Israel over its occupation of territories where Palestinians seek statehood .

The sentence includes the phrase 'talked out of doing something', which fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'talked' is used in the V1 slot, and the NP object is implied (anyone). The VP2[-ing] predicate is 'doing something', which suggests a prevention interpretation (preventing someone from doing something). This aligns with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction with 'talk yourself out of doing things'. It involves a reflexive NP object 'yourself' which is coreferential with the implied subject 'you', and it induces a prevention interpretation, meaning the subject is preventing themselves from doing things during a manic episode. This aligns with the atypical types of NP objects allowed in the construction as described in the sixth property.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a situation where the International Committee of the Red Cross is taking action to prevent cities from running out of drinking water, but it does not involve a causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as defined by the transitive out of -ing construction.

A malnourished Yemeni child receives treatment at a hospital in Sana'a , Yemen EPA The International Committee of the Red Cross ( ICRC ) has been forced to purchase emergency " stopgap " fuel in order to stop two cities in war-torn Yemen from completely running out of drinking water . Last week , Saudi Arabia lifted a blockade on Houthi rebel-controlled parts of the country , allowing some aid to resume . Riyadh leads an Arab coalition in the civil war fighting on behalf of Yemen 's exiled government . However , the UN and various aid organisations have warned that more than 7 million people in Yemen are living on the brink of famine , and , without access to commercial imports such as fuel , millions more lives are in danger . Yemen : More than 50,000 children expected to die of starvation and disease by end of year Without unfettered access to goods such as fuel generators , which power hospitals , and treated drinking water , the country is still on track for a large-scale famine . The fuel shortage is now " critical " , with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pumps , ICRC spokesperson Iolanda Jaquemet said on Wednesday . More than a dozen health facilities have already been forced to close for lack of water . " As a last resort and in light of the large and urgent needs ... we are purchasing fuel to supply the urban water corporations in Hodeida and Taiz with fuel , enough to operate their water pumps for one month , " she told Reuters .

Reasoning
×
The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('Nobody') + V1 ('should be priced') + NP object (implied 'people') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('living with their family'). It also induces a prevention interpretation, meaning that the high prices prevent people from living with their families. The verb 'priced' can be categorized under 'By means of exerting force or pressure', fitting one of the semantic categories for V1. The NP object is a causee affected by the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

IT 'S that time of year again . Love it or loathe it , Christmas is on the horizon and people are looking forward to spending time with their families . But what about those who do n't have the luxury of seeing their families over the festive season ? Thanks to Home Office immigration rules many people will only be able to speak to their spouses on the phone at this time of year . If you happen to have fallen in love with someone from outside of the EU , your spouse can be prevented from living in the UK if you earn less than ? 18,600 a year , more if you have children . Even if you meet that condition , your family is still subject to a complex and arbitrary regime of evidence gathering and decision making . In short , the odds are stacked against success at the outset . Nobody should be priced out of living with their family . For too long , the UK has courted an anti-immigration @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a lot to treat people this badly . The immigration system is unnecessarily cumbersome and deters people from staying , working and paying their taxes here . The situation is set to get worse , with the future of EU workers after Brexit still not being guaranteed by the UK Government . Against all reason , targets are still in place to bring immigration down to under 100,000 a year . A level which , were it ever to be achieved , would have serious consequences for the UK 's economic prospects . In Scotland , we have an ageing population which needs young immigrants to fund our future pensions . We should be actively supporting and encouraging the 190,000 migrant workers in Scotland , all of whom have chosen to be here , working and paying taxes , and deserve the same rights as everyone else . It 's estimated that each EU worker contributes an additional ? 34,000 to Scotland 's GDP per year . Scotland needs more immigration , not less . The economic case for the UK Government 's drive to reduce @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ political motives to appease the right-wing of the Conservative Party . We should stand by those who have chosen to make Scotland their home , and not let the future of our country be derailed by attempts to win over Ukip voters . Contrary to the views of some , immigrants are not " taking our jobs " . Quite the opposite , in fact . Immigrants are creating jobs . Jobs are not a finite resource that can be used up , they are a driver of growth which in turn leads to -- you 've guessed it , more jobs . This week I heard about a young man by the name of Harry Windsor . Harry recently got engaged to his girlfriend , who happens to be an American citizen . I 'm hoping that the happy couple will face no real barriers to being together , and that any inconvenient Home Office procedures can be brushed aside . If only the same could be said about every family that wants to be together and contribute to society . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Standards Organisation 's Editors ' Code of Practice .

A former teacher who battled breast cancer has turned to writing to give back to the hospital where she was treated . Fran Arnold has written a book of poems about her experience of breast cancer and is selling them on behalf of Dorset County Hospital Charity 's Cancer Appeal . Fran came into the hospital recently to donate a cheque for ? 3,500 from sales of the book and donations . She was first diagnosed with cancer in June 2016 . After undergoing a mastectomy she received chemotherapy treatment at Dorset County Hospital followed by radiotherapy at Poole Hospital . A former teacher , Fran wrote a number of poems during her treatment initially as a way of saying a very personal thank you to staff taking care of her , then as a means of helping others going through the same types of treatment . Fran said : " When I saw the reaction people had to my poems I knew they were having a real effect and I decided to write more of them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ entitled , Francesca & Me , which Fran has been selling for ? 4 ( ? 5 with postage ) . Five hundred books have been printed of which over three quarters have now been sold . Sixty of the books have also been given to Dorset County Hospital to be offered to newly diagnosed breast cancer patients who are going through similar experiences to Fran . Fran said : " The most important thing I have learned is how generous people are . This includes staff in the hospitals who are so generous with their time and with their care . Members of the public have also been very generous -- often making a donation well above the cost of the book . " Fran said , " This is something really good to come out of something that was a really big challenge for me .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('Norton asked her...out of attending Donald Trump's inauguration'). It involves a prevention interpretation where the subject (Norton) is inquiring if the object (her) attempted to avoid attending the event. The verb 'wriggle' fits into the category of exerting force or pressure metaphorically, and the NP object 'her' is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'attending'. Thus, it is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

" I 've failed all my relationship exams , and yes it 's a different life , but I 'm still living . You 're far better off finding ways to enjoy the life you 're living than mourning the life you 're not , which is a double whammy of unhappiness .

The show gets its highest ratings on New Year 's Eve ( 4.47m for 2016 's special with Jennifer Lawrence and Eddie Redmayne ) . " And that 's because of the relationship the nation has with the BBC . We trust it to get midnight right ; ITV will show the same fireworks , but everyone comes to the BBC to see them .

I do n't do the Gary Lineker thing , sharing my opinions on Twitter . And maybe that makes me a spineless dick . As @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ worry about that . But , who 'd listen to me ? Would retweeting Guardian articles really help ? " He thinks . " What I see when I do that , rather than change , is a real wheelbarrow of shit being pushed on top of me . And it turns out I care about that more than I do about ending fascism . Yeah , I 've weighed it up . I 'm good , thanks . " When bad things happen , he says , he soothes himself with the idea that he can always " go back to Ireland and grow some tomato plants on the windowsill . I 've achieved more than I ever thought I would . After I became a standup , able to pay the rent , that was all my dreams met . Everything else is just icing on what turned out to be a very small cake . So why hang around ? Why take part in this struggle , why not just wave my white flag and go back to Ireland and watch the tide ? " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I could . A strategy like that means you can do anything -- I like to imagine the worst case scenario . That 's what I did when I published a novel . If it was terrible , then what ? It would be a bit humiliating , none of my friends would mention it , and then life would go on . It 's an interesting time to be alive , is n't it ? You literally can not imagine the future . London in a post-Brexit world might be a ghost town . " He searches for a silver lining , as is his way . " I suppose ... traffic might improve ? Did you see the orange skies a few weeks ago ? " When the dust from fires in southern Europe swept north , turning Britain the colour of peaches ? " Yes . I thought : ' This feels like the end of the world . ' And then I thought : ' But does n't the end of the world look beautiful ? ' " |

" No , he loves it , especially compared to writing memoirs .

And the great thing about being young is you have so much more time than you think .

But it 's not my job to ask tough questions -- it 's to make sure people have a nice time , and to reveal that person to the audience through the process of being on the couch .

As recently as August , Britain 's official position in Brexit talks was that there would n't be any money ( or " net flow " ) going from U.K. coffers to the EU after 2019 . Boris Johnson , the foreign secretary , told Brussels it could " go whistle " for a hefty Brexit bill . So much for that . Britain now ( reluctantly ) accepts it 'll be on the hook for up to ? 55 billion or more to settle its accounts with the EU over the coming years . And it will be many years . Current EU employees will be claiming pensions decades from now ; numerous projects green-lighted during Britain 's time in the bloc will continue to send in bills . What exactly will those billions pay for ? Here are six items British taxpayers probably did n't expect to have to cover . Britain 's share of the cost is a point of negotiation ( a key question is whether the U.K. 's rebate can be applied once it has left ) but for the sake of argument we 've applied a 12.5% share @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the EU. Ever mindful of the need to defend its cultural and linguistic sovereignty against American cultural imperialism ( think the Kardashians ) , the EU recently committed ? 1.3 million to subtitle TV shows about European culture . The project , which is unlikely to be a favorite of U.K. Euroskeptics , began last year and will run until June 2020 -- after the U.K. officially leaves in March 2019 . It aims to " try out innovative strategies for the provision of subtitled versions of European factual cultural programming " in a bid to " facilitate the development of pan-European cultural programs . " Hundreds of U.K. politicians graced the debating halls of the European Parliament . Many British officials have helped turn the wheels of the EU bureaucracy . Now Britain needs to help pay their collective retirement costs -- or rather the U.K. 's share of the overall EU pension bill . Choosing a somewhat random slave to European democracy , POLITICO totted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ illustrate the U.K. 's burden . The former UKIP leader is now 54 , and so must wait until 2027 , when he turns 63 , to claim his EU pension . Under the current program which begin in 2009 , following one full year of service , an MEP is entitled to 3.5 percent of gross salary as a pension , meaning at least ? 297 euros per month ( or ? 3,564 annually ) . For each year in Parliament , the pension share increases , until it reaches a ceiling of 70 percent of gross salary or ? 71,268 per year . In Farage 's case his pension will be paid partly by the U.K. and partly by the EU ( because he joined the Parliament in 1999 , before 2009 system began ) . The EU 's share will be ? 35,640 annually once he reaches retirement age . If the former UKIP leader achieves the average British male lifespan of 79.2 years , he will have collected ? 570,240 . If he makes it to 100 , the EU system will have paid @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pension is linked to inflation in future . On top of that , Farage is entitled to a ? 169,000 ' " golden goodbye " -- a " transition payment " awarded to MEPs who stand down or lose their seats . Farage has said would accept it but he reckons EU officials " wo n't give it to me . " Farage did not answer POLITICO 's request to discuss these pension calculations . What about the rest ? According to Britain 's former EU ambassador Ivan Rogers , the U.K. 's share of EU pension liabilities is ? 8.75 billion . But the EU pension scheme was underfunded to the tune of ? 67.2 billion in 2016 . Dealing with that growing black hole means the final bill would be higher . Given the Brexiteer leanings of many in the U.K. fishing industry , it 's somewhat ironic that the British financial settlement will go , at least in part , to boost fish production in a land-locked European country . The EU has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Fisheries Fund to the Czech Republic , where ? 20.8 million will go towards making fish farms more sustainable and introducing " new fish species and improved products and processes to the market . " London is already smarting over losing two of the EU 's most lucrative assets -- the European Medicines Agency and European Banking Authority . To add insult to that injury the EU wants the U.K. to pick up the tab for moving the agencies to Amsterdam and Paris , respectively . Even more painful is the anticipated cost of buying the European Medicines Agency out of its no-break lease . After the move , the agency is liable for rent costs in its expensive Canary Wharf offices . Up to 2039 that will create a bill of ? 448 million , according to the European Court of Auditors . The EU will not want the U.K. to get away without paying up . Michel Barnier , the EU 's chief negotiator , does n't use @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the financial issue is simply a matter of settling accounts -- Britain paying its share of the cost of projects it agreed to while a member of the EU club . In his speech following the third round of negotiations in late August , the Frenchman made an example of the EU 's financial assistance program to Ukraine as one of the " joint obligations " that the U.K. shares with the EU27 . Stabilizing Ukraine and pushing back Russian influence there is one of the EU 's key foreign policy goals . So how much ? Earlier this year , the European Commission announced it had triggered a ? 600 million loan to Kiev dedicated to anti-corruption efforts , and to measures to stabilize the country 's economy and reform its energy sector . In a 2014 fact sheet , the Commission laid out that it will spend up to ? 180 million in grants to the country . As some of these payments are likely to come after the EU 's current seven-year budget , they will form part of the EU budget 's outstanding payments ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ likely form part of the U.K. 's tab . Could Farage 's pension not be reduced by a % representing the time he did NOT spend working at the EU , that will save a few ? ' s .

Also the EU has set itself a very high bar against @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ require the UK to hand over Northern Ireland to the EU customs union and single market and to subject U.K. law to the extraterritorial jurisdiction of an unaccountable foreign court ( the ECJ ) in respect of a select minority of foreigners living in the UK . As the UK is rejecting both demands , the EU will have to retaliate by rejecting the British offer of 60 billion Euros . That should teach the British a lesson ! Posted on 12/3/17 11:51 AM CET what makes me laugh about this article is the authors fail to realise that the waste of billions of euros is money from EU citizens in all countries not just the UK . It 's not so funny now is it ...... Posted on 12/3/17 12:16 PM CET @Abeline One day the penny or euro will drop and the rest will see just how the likes of Junker blow money like confetti .

You can not make this up , comedy gold pollitico Posted on 12/3/17 12:27 PM CET Sounds like run of the mill expenses . Anything else ? Posted on 12/3/17 12:34 PM CET @ Steuersklave " May wo n't face any problems over the financial settlement because the British offer is contingent on ' future relations ' being decided , too ( as required by EU law ) . " You still do n't see the fun in that ? The UK was leaving because EU 's membership was too expensive and now it will pay for decades if the " future relations " worse it ? Staying was a much better deal indeed . I mean : at least Britain had a word at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ EU , to name just one other hidden cost of Brexit . We do n't even know how many more thousands of civil servants will be required post-Brexit . If we have to really look at Brexit hidden cost(s) then be ready for many more bad surprises . Posted on 12/3/17 12:55 PM CET @ kermelen The U.K. will only pay 60billion Euros if there is a withdrawal agreement . If there 's no withdrawal agreement by 29 March 2019 then the U.K. leaves the EU without a withdrawal agreement . My point is that the EU will have to reject the British financial offer unless the U.K. provides an acceptable solution to the EU 's Irish problem and agrees to subject its democratically accountable legal system to an unaccountable foreign legal system ( the ECJ ) . The U.K. will do neither of these , so it seems that the U.K. is going to save itself 60 billion Euros . What does the EU do then ? Posted on 12/3/17 1:07 PM CET Why are European tax payers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ This is an absolute joke . These people need to live in the real world . Posted on 12/3/17 1:35 PM CET " What about the rest ? According to Britain 's former EU ambassador Ivan Rogers , the U.K. 's share of EU pension liabilities is ? 8.75 billion . But the EU pension scheme was underfunded to the tune of ? 67.2 billion in 2016 . Dealing with that growing black hole means the final bill would be higher . " The ? 8.75bn is the UK share of the ? 67.2bn . Thus , ' dealing with that growing black hole ' wo n't make the financial settlement higher . Beside , the EU pension scheme is n't underfunded , it is simply not funded . All over the world , most public authorities do n't fund pension liabilities , because there is no need to . I also wonder why the author calls this pension liability a black hole . My previous employer , a private corporation , also had pension liabilities of several billions . The accounting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that a black hole . Posted on 12/3/17 2:02 PM CET Very anecdotal . Of course , Italians will also be contributing until 2020 to restoring rotten boardwalks on the English coast with EU funding , despite the fact that they may never use them given the horrible English weather and the inedible food . Posted on 12/3/17 2:18 PM CET @ Steuersklave Obligations stemming from treaties do not disappear once a party renounces the particular treaty . That is laid down in the Vienna convention . Some people argue that article 50 TFEU voids the Vienna convention but that looks like quite a stretch given the limited number of words in that article . We can assume that the EU will sue the UK for the remaining financial obligations if the UK refuses to pay in the absence of a withdrawal agreement ( or in the absence of a trade agreement which some Brexiteers magically and against all legal logic link to the withdrawal process ) . Then what ? Not being on friendly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ folly in history . The withdrawal bill is peanuts in comparison . So , of course , the UK will pay , no matter what . Posted on 12/3/17 2:25 PM CET What a lot of people miss here is that just like Brexit has consequences on how Brits see the EU as vindictive and mean , EU citizens will also harbour quite a few opinions about British people . 60million vs 450m . It is not an exclusivity limited to Britain to be resentful . Politico would be well inspired to publish the unvarnished truth how Brits are rated these days . . Posted on 12/3/17 2:57 PM CET @Abeline " what makes me laugh about this article is the authors fail to realise that the waste of billions of euros is money from EU citizens in all countries not just the UK . " The author certainly does not fail to understand this , it is simply not a matter relevant for this very article dealing with the ' brexit-bill ' . At least the EU27 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ use of RAF planes : -D . It 's not so funny now is it ...... Posted on 12/3/17 3:05 PM CET @Saintixe " Politico would be well inspired to publish the unvarnished truth how Brits are rated these days . " This would in terms of vocabulary most likely not comply with their own decency standards . LOL . Posted on 12/3/17 3:07 PM CET Meanwhile , in the real word , the independent 5 hours ago : " Second Brexit referendum has 16-point lead as half of Britons back new vote , opinion poll shows . Survation study also puts Labour at 8-point lead " Posted on 12/3/17 3:16 PM CET @Priscilla In the present circumstances , a second referendum would give the choice between whatever deal is agreed to , and no deal at all . I suspect that many in the UK do n't understand that . Posted on 12/3/17 3:41 PM CET Like what others said : I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ except maybe the rent for the building in the UK but that is a direct consequence of Brexit . Taking care of EU culture is fine , just as helping Ukraine is . The MEP 's pensions may be a bit high , but I understand its also a matter of compromise . Farage is elected like all other MEP 's and has the same rights . Some classy buidings are of course needed , and development of sustainable fish farms may be not too sexy but still can be usefull . Posted on 12/3/17 3:44 PM CET @Fran ? ois P This is correct , there is no going back from the decision to leave the EU . Like it ( as I do ) , or not the UK are leaving the EU . I am sure many in the UK do think there can be a U turn , equally many in the EU also believe this to be true . But the 2016 referendum will not be overturned . Posted on 12/3/17 4:07 PM CET The only way to continue mutual financial obligations between the U.K. and EU after 29 March 2019 would be via a political agreement ( a ' withdrawal agreement ' ) . If no such agreement is ratified by that date , then EU law dictates that all mutual U.K.-EU financial obligations also cease . Thus the EU has no recourse to suing its former member state because that former member state was respecting EU law . In other words , if the EU wants British money , it 's going about it in a very funny way . My @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to continue funding the EU after the UK 's departure ( which I and most people in the U.K. think is fair even if it is not strictly legal ) , there are 2 major stumbling blocks . First of all , the EU 's famous 3 demands require the U.K. not only to pay an ' exit bill ' , but also to surrender Northern Ireland to the EU customs union and single market and its democratically accountable legal system to an unaccountable foreign court ( ECJ ) in respect of a select minority of foreigners resident in the UK . As the U.K. will not accept these demands , Monsieur Barnier must reject the U.K. offer of 60 billion . The second stumbling block probably wo n't even see the light of day , namely the UK position that any financial settlement be contingent on ' future relations ' ( trade ) , as dictated in EU law . As the EU has cornered itself with its phasing strategy , we shall probably never even reach the phase where the U.K. makes demands of the EU . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Saintixe " Politico would be well inspired to publish the unvarnished truth how Brits are rated these days . " Who cares ? It would be useful to EU citizens though to realize how strong xenophobia is in the EU , I agree . Posted on 12/3/17 4:43 PM CET @FrancoisP , right now the best thing to do is wait for this Tory government to finish its term but under no circumstance allow them to leave the single market . We ( remainers and soft brexiteers ) are slowly winning . It has n't made much news but TM has quietly agreed to remain under ECJ control via agreeing to remain part of the European Aviation Safety Agency . She was pressurised by who else , but the Americans . The US Federal Aviation Authority said that all UK flights would immediately become illegal if we left EASA because there would be no regulatory body . This along with her conceding on the divorce bill , throws the Tory red lines out the window . They are fighting a losing battle . The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a fully 100% reversible decision no matter what the hard brexiteers say . The other option will be a Swiss style deal . I had lost a little hope , but I 'm now sure we have the strength to crush the hard brexiteers . Posted on 12/3/17 5:50 PM CET @Mark Boyd The main problem Bexit seems to have is that nobody has thought it really through . Like Boris simply did not now about pensions and RAL when he prepared the paint for the bus . And now being confronted with his too simple maths he has not found any way to avoid paying . Brexiteers manage to promise to leave SM , get back controll of tariffs and regulation and a " no border " in Irland in one sentence . Without realising the technical problems near to impossibility of it . So in the end it might turn out that Brexiteers might reach a point where they will be running out of answers what to do when UK negotiatiors in Brussels will be running into the next problems and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ peace that Brexit is so much of a contradiction in itself Posted on 12/3/17 7:20 PM CET @Mark Boyd " right now the best thing to do is wait for this Tory government to finish its term but under no circumstance allow them to leave the single market . We ( remainers and soft brexiteers ) are slowly winning . It has n't made much news but TM has quietly agreed to remain under ECJ control via agreeing to remain part of the European Aviation Safety Agency . " I saw this news . But as always , this seems to be a wish expressed by the UK government , without any consideration of what the opinion of the EU27 might be . Presently , the only countries represented in the EASA are EU members and non-EU EEA members . I doubt that the UK can stay in the EASA as a third country . " This along with her conceding on the divorce bill , throws the Tory red lines out the window . " Correct . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what the hard brexiteers say . The other option will be a Swiss style deal . " I do n't think that Brexit is easily reversible . I do n't agree with those who say that the UK government is allowed to withdraw the article 50 notice uniterally . I am also far from convinced that the EU27 would welcome the UK back without a clear popular mandate in the UK . The EU wo n't offer the UK anything like the Swiss option . The Swiss relationship is extremely cumbersome and time-consuming for the EU . The EU is currently renegotiating the Swiss relationship , probably in the direction of the EEA framework . That said , the EU would have no problem with the UK joining the EEA , should the UK so decide . Posted on 12/3/17 7:40 PM CET Anybody knows what the problem with UK and the European Aviation Safety Agency is . Countries like Russia , India , etc. are not members in it , I presume , so why can UK be not independet in the same @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Mark Boyd @Tpk , Well , what I understand and most brexiteers do n't , is that every aspect of our relationship with the EU is interlinked . If we go out of one thing , we 're out of everything . It is not possible to go out of everything ( as shown with May backing down regarding EASA which is under ECJ control ) . Hence the only viable alternative is a Swiss style deal . The Brexiteers keep setting their red lines , but as we can see their red lines mean nothing . Even if everyone in the country wanted to brexit , we still could n't go out of everything because other countries in the world would simply not accept us going out of EU regulation agencies upon which we are now heavily dependent . This was evident when the US Federal Aviation Agency said that all UK flights would immediately be illegal if we went out of EASA . So we are now forced to accept ECJ jurisdiction ( a big red line ) not over EU citizens but over the entire British @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't exactly know why we 're forced to remain in EASA , I presume because it has agreements with the US and other countries which would be too hard and take too much time for us to replicate . The other countries have their own agencies and have already signed their own agreements . Posted on 12/3/17 8:29 PM CET Priscilla It is absolutely normal for the opposition party being way in the lead in the first year of a five year parliament . It is also normal for people to give silly answers to silly questions on such topics as another referendum Posted on 12/3/17 9:07 PM CET @tpk " Anybody knows what the problem with UK and the European Aviation Safety Agency is .

Probably too much work for lazy and incompetent UK ministers . Posted on 12/3/17 10:38 PM CET @tpk Anybody knows what the problem with UK and the European Aviation Safety Agency is . I am not sure there is one , UK view this as something to discuss as part of wider trade talks , which have yet to start . These issues are raised by those looking for reasons why brexit is bad , knowing nothing has been decided yet . Nothing decided yet does not mean nothing will be sorted but this is the implication drawn by the anti brexit bunch . Department for Transport has been privately reassuring the aviation industry and aeronautical manufacturers that Britain will stay within EASA . 40% of the technical expertise behind EASA is from the UK Civil Aviation Authority ( CAA ) .

As recently as August , Britain 's official position in Brexit talks was that there would n't be any money ( or " net flow " ) going from U.K. coffers to the EU after 2019 . Boris Johnson , the foreign secretary , told Brussels it could " go whistle " for a hefty Brexit bill . So much for that . Britain now ( reluctantly ) accepts it 'll be on the hook for up to ? 55 billion or more to settle its accounts with the EU over the coming years . And it will be many years . Current EU employees will be claiming pensions decades from now ; numerous projects green-lighted during Britain 's time in the bloc will continue to send in bills . What exactly will those billions pay for ? Here are six items British taxpayers probably did n't expect to have to cover . Britain 's share of the cost is a point of negotiation ( a key question is whether the U.K. 's rebate can be applied once it has left ) but for the sake of argument we 've applied a 12.5% share @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the EU. Ever mindful of the need to defend its cultural and linguistic sovereignty against American cultural imperialism ( think the Kardashians ) , the EU recently committed ? 1.3 million to subtitle TV shows about European culture . The project , which is unlikely to be a favorite of U.K. Euroskeptics , began last year and will run until June 2020 -- after the U.K. officially leaves in March 2019 . It aims to " try out innovative strategies for the provision of subtitled versions of European factual cultural programming " in a bid to " facilitate the development of pan-European cultural programs . " Hundreds of U.K. politicians graced the debating halls of the European Parliament . Many British officials have helped turn the wheels of the EU bureaucracy . Now Britain needs to help pay their collective retirement costs -- or rather the U.K. 's share of the overall EU pension bill . Choosing a somewhat random slave to European democracy , POLITICO totted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ illustrate the U.K. 's burden . The former UKIP leader is now 54 , and so must wait until 2027 , when he turns 63 , to claim his EU pension . Under the current program which begin in 2009 , following one full year of service , an MEP is entitled to 3.5 percent of gross salary as a pension , meaning at least ? 297 euros per month ( or ? 3,564 annually ) . For each year in Parliament , the pension share increases , until it reaches a ceiling of 70 percent of gross salary or ? 71,268 per year . In Farage 's case his pension will be paid partly by the U.K. and partly by the EU ( because he joined the Parliament in 1999 , before 2009 system began ) . The EU 's share will be ? 35,640 annually once he reaches retirement age . If the former UKIP leader achieves the average British male lifespan of 79.2 years , he will have collected ? 570,240 . If he makes it to 100 , the EU system will have paid @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pension is linked to inflation in future . On top of that , Farage is entitled to a ? 169,000 ' " golden goodbye " -- a " transition payment " awarded to MEPs who stand down or lose their seats . Farage has said would accept it but he reckons EU officials " wo n't give it to me . " Farage did not answer POLITICO 's request to discuss these pension calculations . What about the rest ? According to Britain 's former EU ambassador Ivan Rogers , the U.K. 's share of EU pension liabilities is ? 8.75 billion . But the EU pension scheme was underfunded to the tune of ? 67.2 billion in 2016 . Dealing with that growing black hole means the final bill would be higher . Given the Brexiteer leanings of many in the U.K. fishing industry , it 's somewhat ironic that the British financial settlement will go , at least in part , to boost fish production in a land-locked European country . The EU has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Fisheries Fund to the Czech Republic , where ? 20.8 million will go towards making fish farms more sustainable and introducing " new fish species and improved products and processes to the market . " London is already smarting over losing two of the EU 's most lucrative assets -- the European Medicines Agency and European Banking Authority . To add insult to that injury the EU wants the U.K. to pick up the tab for moving the agencies to Amsterdam and Paris , respectively . Even more painful is the anticipated cost of buying the European Medicines Agency out of its no-break lease . After the move , the agency is liable for rent costs in its expensive Canary Wharf offices . Up to 2039 that will create a bill of ? 448 million , according to the European Court of Auditors . The EU will not want the U.K. to get away without paying up . Michel Barnier , the EU 's chief negotiator , does n't use @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the financial issue is simply a matter of settling accounts -- Britain paying its share of the cost of projects it agreed to while a member of the EU club . In his speech following the third round of negotiations in late August , the Frenchman made an example of the EU 's financial assistance program to Ukraine as one of the " joint obligations " that the U.K. shares with the EU27 . Stabilizing Ukraine and pushing back Russian influence there is one of the EU 's key foreign policy goals . So how much ? Earlier this year , the European Commission announced it had triggered a ? 600 million loan to Kiev dedicated to anti-corruption efforts , and to measures to stabilize the country 's economy and reform its energy sector . In a 2014 fact sheet , the Commission laid out that it will spend up to ? 180 million in grants to the country . As some of these payments are likely to come after the EU 's current seven-year budget , they will form part of the EU budget 's outstanding payments ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ likely form part of the U.K. 's tab . Could Farage 's pension not be reduced by a % representing the time he did NOT spend working at the EU , that will save a few ? ' s .

Posted on 12/3/17 11:51 AM CET what makes me laugh about this article is the authors fail to realise that the waste of billions of euros is money from EU citizens in all countries not just the UK . It 's not so funny now is it ...... Posted on 12/3/17 12:16 PM CET @Abeline One day the penny or euro will drop and the rest will see just how the likes of Junker blow money like confetti .

We do n't even know how many more thousands of civil servants will be required post-Brexit . If we have to really look at Brexit hidden cost(s) then be ready for many more bad surprises . Posted on 12/3/17 12:55 PM CET @ kermelen The U.K. will only pay 60billion Euros if there is a withdrawal agreement . If there 's no withdrawal agreement by 29 March 2019 then the U.K. leaves the EU without a withdrawal agreement . My point is that the EU will have to reject the British financial offer unless the U.K. provides an acceptable solution to the EU 's Irish problem and agrees to subject its democratically accountable legal system to an unaccountable foreign legal system ( the ECJ ) . The U.K. will do neither of these , so it seems that the U.K. is going to save itself 60 billion Euros . What does the EU do then ? Posted on 12/3/17 1:07 PM CET Why are European tax payers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ This is an absolute joke . These people need to live in the real world . Posted on 12/3/17 1:35 PM CET " What about the rest ? According to Britain 's former EU ambassador Ivan Rogers , the U.K. 's share of EU pension liabilities is ? 8.75 billion . But the EU pension scheme was underfunded to the tune of ? 67.2 billion in 2016 . Dealing with that growing black hole means the final bill would be higher . " The ? 8.75bn is the UK share of the ? 67.2bn . Thus , ' dealing with that growing black hole ' wo n't make the financial settlement higher . Beside , the EU pension scheme is n't underfunded , it is simply not funded . All over the world , most public authorities do n't fund pension liabilities , because there is no need to . I also wonder why the author calls this pension liability a black hole . My previous employer , a private corporation , also had pension liabilities of several billions . The accounting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that a black hole . Posted on 12/3/17 2:02 PM CET Very anecdotal . Of course , Italians will also be contributing until 2020 to restoring rotten boardwalks on the English coast with EU funding , despite the fact that they may never use them given the horrible English weather and the inedible food . Posted on 12/3/17 2:18 PM CET @ Steuersklave Obligations stemming from treaties do not disappear once a party renounces the particular treaty . That is laid down in the Vienna convention . Some people argue that article 50 TFEU voids the Vienna convention but that looks like quite a stretch given the limited number of words in that article . We can assume that the EU will sue the UK for the remaining financial obligations if the UK refuses to pay in the absence of a withdrawal agreement ( or in the absence of a trade agreement which some Brexiteers magically and against all legal logic link to the withdrawal process ) . Then what ? Not being on friendly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ folly in history . The withdrawal bill is peanuts in comparison . So , of course , the UK will pay , no matter what . Posted on 12/3/17 2:25 PM CET What a lot of people miss here is that just like Brexit has consequences on how Brits see the EU as vindictive and mean , EU citizens will also harbour quite a few opinions about British people . 60million vs 450m . It is not an exclusivity limited to Britain to be resentful . Politico would be well inspired to publish the unvarnished truth how Brits are rated these days . . Posted on 12/3/17 2:57 PM CET @Abeline " what makes me laugh about this article is the authors fail to realise that the waste of billions of euros is money from EU citizens in all countries not just the UK .

At least the EU27 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ use of RAF planes : -D . It 's not so funny now is it ...... Posted on 12/3/17 3:05 PM CET @Saintixe " Politico would be well inspired to publish the unvarnished truth how Brits are rated these days .

Posted on 12/3/17 3:07 PM CET Meanwhile , in the real word , the independent 5 hours ago : " Second Brexit referendum has 16-point lead as half of Britons back new vote , opinion poll shows . Survation study also puts Labour at 8-point lead " Posted on 12/3/17 3:16 PM CET @Priscilla In the present circumstances , a second referendum would give the choice between whatever deal is agreed to , and no deal at all . I suspect that many in the UK do n't understand that . Posted on 12/3/17 3:41 PM CET Like what others said : I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ except maybe the rent for the building in the UK but that is a direct consequence of Brexit . Taking care of EU culture is fine , just as helping Ukraine is . The MEP 's pensions may be a bit high , but I understand its also a matter of compromise . Farage is elected like all other MEP 's and has the same rights . Some classy buidings are of course needed , and development of sustainable fish farms may be not too sexy but still can be usefull . Posted on 12/3/17 3:44 PM CET @Fran ? ois P This is correct , there is no going back from the decision to leave the EU . Like it ( as I do ) , or not the UK are leaving the EU . I am sure many in the UK do think there can be a U turn , equally many in the EU also believe this to be true . But the 2016 referendum will not be overturned . Posted on 12/3/17 4:07 PM CET The only way to continue mutual financial obligations between the U.K. and EU after 29 March 2019 would be via a political agreement ( a ' withdrawal agreement ' ) . If no such agreement is ratified by that date , then EU law dictates that all mutual U.K.-EU financial obligations also cease . Thus the EU has no recourse to suing its former member state because that former member state was respecting EU law . In other words , if the EU wants British money , it 's going about it in a very funny way . My @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to continue funding the EU after the UK 's departure ( which I and most people in the U.K. think is fair even if it is not strictly legal ) , there are 2 major stumbling blocks . First of all , the EU 's famous 3 demands require the U.K. not only to pay an ' exit bill ' , but also to surrender Northern Ireland to the EU customs union and single market and its democratically accountable legal system to an unaccountable foreign court ( ECJ ) in respect of a select minority of foreigners resident in the UK . As the U.K. will not accept these demands , Monsieur Barnier must reject the U.K. offer of 60 billion . The second stumbling block probably wo n't even see the light of day , namely the UK position that any financial settlement be contingent on ' future relations ' ( trade ) , as dictated in EU law . As the EU has cornered itself with its phasing strategy , we shall probably never even reach the phase where the U.K. makes demands of the EU . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Saintixe " Politico would be well inspired to publish the unvarnished truth how Brits are rated these days . " Who cares ? It would be useful to EU citizens though to realize how strong xenophobia is in the EU , I agree . Posted on 12/3/17 4:43 PM CET @FrancoisP , right now the best thing to do is wait for this Tory government to finish its term but under no circumstance allow them to leave the single market .

Like Boris simply did not now about pensions and RAL when he prepared the paint for the bus . And now being confronted with his too simple maths he has not found any way to avoid paying . Brexiteers manage to promise to leave SM , get back controll of tariffs and regulation and a " no border " in Irland in one sentence . Without realising the technical problems near to impossibility of it . So in the end it might turn out that Brexiteers might reach a point where they will be running out of answers what to do when UK negotiatiors in Brussels will be running into the next problems and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ peace that Brexit is so much of a contradiction in itself Posted on 12/3/17 7:20 PM CET @Mark Boyd " right now the best thing to do is wait for this Tory government to finish its term but under no circumstance allow them to leave the single market .

I do n't agree with those who say that the UK government is allowed to withdraw the article 50 notice uniterally . I am also far from convinced that the EU27 would welcome the UK back without a clear popular mandate in the UK . The EU wo n't offer the UK anything like the Swiss option . The Swiss relationship is extremely cumbersome and time-consuming for the EU . The EU is currently renegotiating the Swiss relationship , probably in the direction of the EEA framework . That said , the EU would have no problem with the UK joining the EEA , should the UK so decide . Posted on 12/3/17 7:40 PM CET Anybody knows what the problem with UK and the European Aviation Safety Agency is . Countries like Russia , India , etc. are not members in it , I presume , so why can UK be not independet in the same @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Mark Boyd @Tpk , Well , what I understand and most brexiteers do n't , is that every aspect of our relationship with the EU is interlinked . If we go out of one thing , we 're out of everything . It is not possible to go out of everything ( as shown with May backing down regarding EASA which is under ECJ control ) . Hence the only viable alternative is a Swiss style deal . The Brexiteers keep setting their red lines , but as we can see their red lines mean nothing . Even if everyone in the country wanted to brexit , we still could n't go out of everything because other countries in the world would simply not accept us going out of EU regulation agencies upon which we are now heavily dependent . This was evident when the US Federal Aviation Agency said that all UK flights would immediately be illegal if we went out of EASA .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes a machine that 'takes the work out of cooking,' which is a different construction where 'out of' is followed by a noun ('cooking') rather than a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Air Fryers are a revolutionary gadget that literally allows us to have our cake and eat it too , without the added fat that comes with cooking in a standard fryer . The main concept of an air fryer is that it uses hot air combined with just a teaspoon of oil ( as opposed to the gallons required in a standard deep fat fryer ) in order to produce the delicious crispy coating we all know and love . For those of you who are skeptical ; yes we know it does n't taste quite the same , but with a decent air fryer model , it 's not far off . Plus we think with the reduction of health risks , they 're a no-brainer to enjoy some of your favourite naughty treats without the added pinch of guilt to go with it . When buying the right air fryer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the same things you look for in any kitchen appliance . First off : capacity . The size of the machine you buy will depend on the size of your family and the size of your kitchen , and the last thing you want to do is end up with a huge appliance that 's cumbersome and far too big to use for just you and your partner . Of course , the bigger you go , the more options you get , with some allowing you to fry multiple food items at a time , or even doubling up as other appliances such as steamers and grills . One of the other major advantages of air fryers compared to deep fat fryers is that they are much less hassle to clean and low maintenance in general . Look out for models with dishwasher safe parts and intuitive controls which allow you to vary the temperature for cooking to perfection . Wattage : 1300w Interface : Dial +Multi-functional+Easy to clean -Tricky to master This majority of reviewers reckon this is a great gadget to have in your kitchen , and compacted into a height of 36.7cm and a width of 35cm , it should n't take up too much space .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a machine that 'takes the work out of cooking', which is a different construction where 'out of' is followed by a noun ('cooking' as a gerund functioning as a noun) rather than a VP[-ing] predicate. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Air Fryers are a revolutionary gadget that literally allows us to have our cake and eat it too , without the added fat that comes with cooking in a standard fryer . The main concept of an air fryer is that it uses hot air combined with just a teaspoon of oil ( as opposed to the gallons required in a standard deep fat fryer ) in order to produce the delicious crispy coating we all know and love . For those of you who are skeptical ; yes we know it does n't taste quite the same , but with a decent air fryer model , it 's not far off . Plus we think with the reduction of health risks , they 're a no-brainer to enjoy some of your favourite naughty treats without the added pinch of guilt to go with it . When buying the right air fryer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the same things you look for in any kitchen appliance . First off : capacity . The size of the machine you buy will depend on the size of your family and the size of your kitchen , and the last thing you want to do is end up with a huge appliance that 's cumbersome and far too big to use for just you and your partner . Of course , the bigger you go , the more options you get , with some allowing you to fry multiple food items at a time , or even doubling up as other appliances such as steamers and grills . One of the other major advantages of air fryers compared to deep fat fryers is that they are much less hassle to clean and low maintenance in general . Look out for models with dishwasher safe parts and intuitive controls which allow you to vary the temperature for cooking to perfection . Wattage : 1300w Interface : Dial +Multi-functional+Easy to clean -Tricky to master This majority of reviewers reckon this is a great gadget to have in your kitchen , and compacted into a height of 36.7cm and a width of 35cm , it should n't take up too much space . Giving you a whole host of cooking options including baking , roasting , grilling and steaming , knocking up whole meals or one element of your tea could n't be easier - plus it cuts down on cooking time too .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'got far more out of giving than receiving', where 'giving' and 'receiving' are not part of a VP2[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The sentence lacks the necessary components and interpretations to be considered an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'the woman' is the NP subject, 'talk' is V1, 'him' is the NP object, and 'raping her' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also induces a prevention interpretation, as the woman is trying to prevent the man from raping her. The verb 'talk' fits into the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot, specifically under 'By means of enticing, flattering, or verbal persuasion'. The NP object 'him' functions as a causee, participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('the woman... tried to talk him out of raping her'). It involves an animate NP subject ('the woman') performing the action denoted by the V1 predicate ('talk') and an NP object ('him') functioning as a causee, inducing a prevention interpretation (preventing him from raping her). This aligns with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The embattled outsourcing group had put the property business up for sale in September as it carried out a restructuring programme following a series of profit warnings that led to worries about its balance sheet .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate structure. Instead, 'pulled out of attending' is a phrasal verb where 'attending' is a gerund, but there is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the sentence does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Derek Wilmot , whose contribution to racing in Epsom was recognised with a Lifetime in Racing Award last month , has died aged 70 . Wilmot , a groom for more than half a century , looked after Sir Peter O'Sullevan 's dual-purpose star Attivo during a 44-year association with Cyril and then Philip Mitchell . Since 2006 he had worked for Pat Phelan and regularly rode out for the trainer , stopping only earlier this year due to illness . Because of illness he was unable to attend the Epsom Owners ' and Trainers ' Awards Dinner at which he was to be honoured . Phelan said : " Derek had been in racing for something like 55 years . Sir Peter O'Sullevan in his book said Attivo would not have been the horse he was were it not for his groom Derek Wilmot . " In his will Sir Peter left Derek a picture of Attivo going to the start for the Northumberland Plate under Lester Piggott . " He was a legend in the Epsom area as you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he was to receive his award and only pulled out of attending at the last minute . His daughter accepted on his behalf . " Derek was one of the old school guys that they do n't make anymore . He turned 70 in February when he was still riding three lots a day , starting at about 5.45am . He was first in the yard and could turn his hand to anything . " You could n't say enough about Derek . He was one of those quiet achievers . " Wilmot lived in Tadworth on the edge of the downs in the house he bought with his winnings from backing Attivo for the Triumph Hurdle . His wife Sue , who worked for Arthur Pitt , predeceased him and he is survived by daughters Annie and Jane . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'suck the enjoyment out of everything', where 'everything' is an NP complement of the complex preposition 'out of', not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence 'I was rushing out of training' does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object between the verb 'rushing' and 'out of training', and 'training' is a noun, not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

When I did gamble , there was something within me that felt that I could beat the system . Where I was feeling anxious , fearful , sad or lonely or isolated , going to the casino was my little sanctuary . It was somewhere where I could get away from the world , where no-one judged me and I could while away several hours and feel like a king . Now , that was the most dangerous part of my gambling behaviours because , the gambling , in itself , was n't the problem . I was using that to mask my mental health . The vast majority of people would much rather you be honest about what you 're going through and receive help for it in order to be a better part of that team , rather than shoulder the burden of secrecy , and have that impact your professional performance . What I had to do is learn new coping mechanisms . But it only came where , first of all , I was aware that I had a problem . And then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you ; you have to do it yourself .

Are you gambling socially ? Or are you gambling because you desperately need to win ? Are you gambling because you 're avoiding certain issues in your life ? The action can be largely irrelevant , but the motivation is of paramount importance . The Sporting Chance Clinic was fantastic . Going down there , and knowing that the workers were specialists in what I was suffering from . But also knowing that they had an empathetic and a deep understanding about my industry ... it changed my life ; it possibly saved my life . I was moving from club to club to club and the gambling became worse . The bets became bigger . And I just never stopped . Outside of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ properly , played properly . But , in my spare time , I was gambling . If I 'd come home after training and I 'd have to pick the kids up , I 'd be a little bit late , because I 'd be waiting for a horse race to finish . Gambling 's meant to be fun but when you 're an addict , you ca n't just have that fun , because it 's got a stage where you 've got to make a clean break from it . I was an addict but I was also a very good footballer . And , luckily for me , it did n't affect my career . It certainly affected my relationship . My wife had said that she would no longer stay with me - she 'd had enough of the lies - and that was my rock bottom . Her bags were packed . I was on my hands and knees pleading with her not to go . She said : ' You go on to that computer , find yourself a Gamblers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

There 's Gamblers Anonymous , there 's GamBlock . If you 're gambling on the internet or on the computer , you can block yourself from gambling . You can go into your local bookmakers and you can ban yourself from the shop . I can totally understand when people say that they 're embarrassed to go .

I could n't afford to get to training and I owed people money from playing poker on the coach . The card school on the bus was an easy place to make friends . And then , from there , it was just a downward spiral . Then turned out to be every day for the next nine years . I did n't want to show a sign of weakness and say : ' Listen , this is hurting me now ; I really do n't want to do it any more ' . I would n't give my family the time of day . I had a young nephew at the time . Before he was born , I was promising the world to my sister that I 'd take @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do that . And I could n't have cared less .

Because , I look at the stats of suicide in men under 50 and it 's the highest killer for men under 50 . And the highest suicide for any addiction is gambling . I 've got a great , great network of family and friends - and they all stuck by me at a time that they could 've easily walked away . If that had happened to me , I would n't be alive now .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('The problem lies with the keepers of the purse-strings oiling their way out of releasing them'). It involves a reflexive NP object ('their way') coreferential with the subject ('the keepers of the purse-strings'), which is an atypical but acceptable type of NP object in the transitive out of -ing construction. The sentence implies a prevention interpretation, where the keepers are preventing the release of something by means of 'oiling their way'. This aligns with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

THIS is a time of year where we must turn our thoughts to those more fortunate than us . Those we forget about sometimes . Those far away . Our owners , writes Simon Smith .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate).

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'make maximum publicity out of seeking to disqualify' does not involve a causee NP object that participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe the Insolvency Service's approach to publicizing their actions, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The founder of Kids Company is facing disqualification proceedings being brought against her and the charity 's former trustees Camila Batmanghelidjh Attempts to disqualify Camila Batmanghelidjh , the founder and former chief executive of the defunct charity Kids Company , from being a director are " a modern-day witch trial " , according to a statement from her lawyer . Batmanghelidjh , along with the eight former trustees of Kids Company , is the subject of disqualification proceedings being brought by the Insolvency Serviceunder section 6 of the Company Directors Disqualification Act 1986 following the collapse of Kids Company in 2015 . Normally , it is only trustees or directors of a company that can be disqualified under the act , but the Insolvency Service is arguing that despite being chief executive , Batmanghelidjh was a de-facto director of the charity . Media reports over the weekend suggested that the directors had been given a deadline of 20 December to accept a five-year ban or face legal proceedings that could result in a ban of up to six years . A statement today from James Nicholls , a partner at Gunnercooke LLP @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ case " because the thousands of children who placed their trust in Kids Company should know that their trust was honoured and the charity did nothing but fight for their care " . The statement said Batmanghelidjh was also challenging , as a matter of principle , " a government system that seeks to silence those who advocate for the vulnerable " . Nicholls said : " If ever there were a modern-day witch trial then this is it . Ms Batmanghelidjh is a powerful and charismatic woman who challenged the establishment .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'make maximum publicity out of seeking to disqualify' does not involve a causee NP object that participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe the Insolvency Service's approach to publicity, which is not aligned with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The founder of Kids Company is facing disqualification proceedings being brought against her and the charity 's former trustees Camila Batmanghelidjh Attempts to disqualify Camila Batmanghelidjh , the founder and former chief executive of the defunct charity Kids Company , from being a director are " a modern-day witch trial " , according to a statement from her lawyer . Batmanghelidjh , along with the eight former trustees of Kids Company , is the subject of disqualification proceedings being brought by the Insolvency Serviceunder section 6 of the Company Directors Disqualification Act 1986 following the collapse of Kids Company in 2015 . Normally , it is only trustees or directors of a company that can be disqualified under the act , but the Insolvency Service is arguing that despite being chief executive , Batmanghelidjh was a de-facto director of the charity . Media reports over the weekend suggested that the directors had been given a deadline of 20 December to accept a five-year ban or face legal proceedings that could result in a ban of up to six years . A statement today from James Nicholls , a partner at Gunnercooke LLP @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ case " because the thousands of children who placed their trust in Kids Company should know that their trust was honoured and the charity did nothing but fight for their care " . The statement said Batmanghelidjh was also challenging , as a matter of principle , " a government system that seeks to silence those who advocate for the vulnerable " . Nicholls said : " If ever there were a modern-day witch trial then this is it . Ms Batmanghelidjh is a powerful and charismatic woman who challenged the establishment . " She repeatedly pointed out to government departments that destitute children were being failed . For 20 years she tirelessly raised money for these children .

This Saturday 's climax will see each of the four finalists dance a judges ' pick , a showdance and their own favourite dance from the past 12 weeks . Then it 's up to the public - and the public only ( sorry judges ) - to pick their favourite , with the winner being announced at the end of Saturday 's show . So who will win ? Well , we 're not Mystic Meg , but we 've taken into account the latest bookies ' odds and the form of each of the finalists over the course of this year 's series to try and determine who stands the best chance of lifting that coveted glitterball trophy . BBC Out of all the finalists , ' Holby City ' star Joe has had the biggest journey , which has helped him become this year 's favourite ahead of the final . He got off to a decent , but fairly unremarkable start , but as the series has progressed he 's improved week after week . This has been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Katya Jones , it culminated in the pair topping the leaderboard in week 11 for their 1920's-inspired quickstep . The semi-final saw them unleash an incredible tango to Rag N Bone Man 's ' Human ' , which was arguably their best dance yet , so we 're expecting to see that crowd-pleaser again in Saturday 's grand final . BBC From the off , Debbie has wowed us all with her natural dance ability . The 59-year-old has shown she 's more than a match for many of the younger contestants with pretty much every routine featuring a seriously impressive array of high-kicks , splits and lifts ( but let 's just forget that Spice Girls routine ever happened , ok ? ) . However , some viewers ca n't seem to get past her dance background , insisting her ballet experience gives her an unfair advantage . Quite how much that will impact her chances remains to be seen , but older viewers will not only be rooting for her , but more importantly picking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rule her out of lifting the glitterball trophy . If she does , she 'll become the oldest winner ever to do so . BBC We could n't be happier that Alexandra has made it to the final after finding herself in the bottom two for the previous two weeks . None of that had anything to do with her insane dancing ability , and everything to do with the public 's perception of her . For weeks , she has been accused of being " fake " , acting like a " diva " and falling out with her dance partner Gorka Marquez by certain sections of the press , leading to the former ' X Factor ' winner to write an open letter to a certain tabloid addressing their " lies " . At the eleventh hour , it looks like it could have paid off , with her avoiding the dreaded dance-off in semi-final week after delivering a perfect score of 40 for her in-cre-di-ble salsa routine . On dance ability alone , Alexandra @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ phone and vote ? BBC Gemma failed to really wow us - or the judges - for the first few weeks of the competition , but then Blackpool happened . The ' Emmerdale ' star admitted that was when she finally conquered her nerves , and it really showed in her American Smooth in the city 's iconic ballroom , which left head judge Shirley Ballas gushing about her performance . Her dance partner Alja ? ? korjanec is a firm favourite with viewers , which could help her in the final , but we 'll eat our feather boa if she wins . Having said that , after Trump and Brexit , we all know that when it comes to people power , literally anything is possible . |

If Saturday 's agonising draw with Bournemouth had left Crystal ? Palace feeling like two points had slipped through their fingers , then here were three that had been ? conjured out of nothing . Once more there was late drama at Selhurst Park , and once more a Palace game swung on its head in the final moments . But there was to be no missed penalty this time , no " pantomime villain " in red and blue . Instead , there were two late goals and two Palace heroes on a night that was forgettable and indeed regrettable for so long , but somehow ended as an occasion to savour . This was a pure steal , a robbing of a Watford side who were made to pay for their profligacy after Daryl Janmaat had given them the lead with an early blast from the south London cold , and for Tom Cleverley 's foolish red card with just three minutes remaining . Bakary Sako bundled in the ugliest of equalisers two minutes after Cleverley had been dismissed , setting the stage for James McArthur to slam home a stoppage-time winner . Two @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out of the relegation zone for the first time this season . Roy Hodgson , the manager , has said keeping the club in the division would be the greatest escape of his career . If he succeeds , it will be nights like this that make the ? difference . " I ca n't explain it , " he said through his smile . " It was not one of our better performances in terms of the quality of our play , but we have played well home and away and not always claimed the three points . I would rather have three points than good performances which do n't give us the points . " A delirious Hodgson even praised the striker for a " quite incredible " piece of chasing that led to Watford goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes booting the ball out of play at the end . Such was the euphoria at the final whistle that this piece of praise only sounded faintly ridiculous . Naturally , the Palace ecstasy was matched by Watford despair . " We should have won , " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but we must score more . The red card changed it . It gave them belief . " It is belief that will now be pumping through the Palace veins , with the lingering memory of this turnaround likely to last long into the season . " Sadness to euphoria , " Hodgson said , as it dawned that Palace are now unbeaten in six games . " We did n't feel this was a hopeless case , " he said . " Even after losing the first three games . From the moment I started working with the players , I found a group who were willing to buy into the type of work ethic and philosophy of myself and my coaching staff . " Tom Cleverley was given his second yellow card in the 87th minuteCredit : Reuters The concept of work ethic felt distant in the third minute , though , when Janmaat ambled into the box unmarked and headed Richarlison 's cross past Julian Speroni and into the roof of the net . Richarlison , as dangerous as ever on the left @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . At the other end , Palace were restricted to two wayward Andros Townsend strikes from range , the second of which prompted a mass throwing of arms into the air , as if the Palace midfield was engaged in a meticulously choreographed dance of frustration . There would have been plenty more angry gesticulating shortly afterwards had Troy Deeney not slid a shot wide when just yards out from goal . It looked a horrendous miss but , on closer viewing , there appeared to be a crucial touch from Palace defender Scott Dann . Sako bundles home the equaliserCredit : Reuters As the second half wore on , Palace appeared further from scoring than at any time in the first period . Richarlison , again , wasted a chance to end the contest , prompting Hodgson to send Sako and McArthur into the mix . Not that it made much difference . Palace continued to splutter and stutter on a night filled with air-kicks and mis-hits , scuffs and hoofs . But Cleverley twice lunged into brainless challenges , was twice shown yellow @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sako barrelled his way through a Watford defence that had been resolute up to this point , with the ball cannoning in off a knee after his initial effort was saved by Gomes , who had pushed out Wilfried Zaha 's drive . A draw felt good , considering the circumstances . An unlikely win felt even better . Zaha charged down the left and found McArthur , who sealed the victory . |

Say hello to Sara , an Italian expat from La Spezia , a gorgeous little port city on the colourful Ligurian coast . Young , smart and enviously fashionable , the marketing and business management student has called the capital her home for the past three years . Since joining Instagram three years ago , Sara has managed to grow not one but two accounts , including mega page @prettylittlelondon , which she co-founded with business partner and boyfriend , Andrea di Filippo . As part of our Meet the Influencer series , we asked her to name her favourite spots in our city . From swanky restaurant Bob Bob Ricard to the city 's secret mews , here are Sara 's top spots . Where are your favourite places to Instagram in London ? Mews ! I absolutely adore them , especially during autumn when they are at their prettiest . Insta-famous Kynance Mews is a must for people who have never visited . It 's just around the corner from the Standard offices , actually . Tell your colleagues to snap it on their lunch breaks . Hyde Park mews is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and if you 're a fan of Love Actually , visit St. Luke 's Mews where it was filmed . You 'll find some really ' grammable bikes there , too . Anything with a bike in is guaranteed to get you lots and lots of likes . My go-to neighbourhood would have to be Notting Hill . I know everybody says it , but it 's just so , so gorgeous . With all the pretty houses and quirky vintage shops around , you ca n't really go wrong , can you ? If you 've never been visit Alice 's on Portobello Road for lots of fine antique junk . It 's probably also the most photographed thing in the area . Biscuiteers Boutique , which is definitely the cutest biscuit shop in the entire world is another must -- even if it is really , really expensive ! Oh , and if you 're a sucker for vintage cars , walk around the backstreets to find everything from old Bentleys to snazzy Beatles . So , how did PrettylittleLondon come about ? I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ creation in general . Once I persuaded my boyfriend , Andrea , to buy a camera , we finally managed to put our vision for finding London 's prettiest things into practice . In the beginning , we just used to wander around the city , capturing as many secret places as we could , especially the one 's that nobody ever talked about . Once we had enough in the bank , we decided to create our very own London-focused Instagram account , Pretty Little London . Thousands of followers later , we 're still going strong . The best thing about it for us is that we really get a buzz out of showcasing Londoner 's fantastic photos . It gives them exposure and helps us find new places all the time . Name your top five Instagrammable restaurants ? There are so many picture-perfect restaurants in London , it 's almost impossible to choose ... Instagram heaven Sketch , is also another obvious favourite . Afternoon tea in the Gallery and a pee in those famous loos has to be on everyone 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for pink so I 'm a little bit biased . Farm Girl Cafe in Notting Hill is super cute . They stencil French bulldogs onto their cappuccinos . What 's not to love about dogs on coffee ? I 'd also recommend any of the Sky Garden restaurants for the amazing views over the city . Love champagne ? Bob Bob Ricard , is one of my absolute favourites just because there 's a button to press for ' more champagne ' . Very handy , right ? What tips do you have for all of us novice ' grammers ? Just keep it simple and try to post high-quality pictures . Do n't overdo it with the filters or the saturation . Look to others ( including my accounts ) for inspiration , but just try to have your own voice , be interesting and , most importantly , try to add something new to the ever-changing Instagram palette . Great . Now tell us all your secret spots to ' gram in the city so we can snap them , too ! @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not a Londoner you probably have never heard of them . The courtyard of The Landmark London Hotel is a nice exotic slice of London wedged in the centre of Marylebone . I recommend the bottomless champagne brunch . Bayswater Street in Chelsea is the place to go for pastel-coloured houses . It 's really eclectic and features everything from Georgian architectural masterpieces to glamorous Victoriana . I also really like to discover new rooftops . I recently bumped into the Crossrail Place Roof Garden in Canary Wharf . It boasts a cool rooftop garden , and is a nice way to escape the hustle and bustle of the city . Everyone seems to be obsessed with taking pictures of their coffees . Who does the best cup of java in London ? I love Peggy Porschen 's because it 's not just good , it 's incredibly pretty as well ! They have seasonal stamps so expect to be served cappuccino with hearts during Valentine 's Day or Christmas decorations during the holidays . Pastel pinks and incredibly pretty storefront displays are also another @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you were visiting London for the first time , where would you go first ? Speaking as a foreigner , If I were visiting London for the first time again , I would definitely do all the touristy stuff first . Big Ben , followed by a walk in a St.James Park and a few selfies in front of Buckingham Palace . The V&A and Natural History museums , Bond Street ... all of it . I ca n't possibly choose one . What 's your favourite club/bar in London ? I recently discovered Tonight Josephine , a cocktail bar in Waterloo with cool pink LED neon signs all about the place . Go during happy hour for two-for-one cocktails ! I totally recommend the Porn Star Martini . It 's to die for . If there was one place in London you 'd tell someone to ' gram , where would it be ? Notting Hill Gate , it 's always so quiet and it seems like tourists still do n't know about it , which is a good thing . A very good @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

A reader talks up the joy of purposefully unbalanced multiplayer games , from Splinter Cell 's Spies vs Mercs to Nintendo Land . They say that the most beautiful people in the world are so because their faces are symmetrical . I do n't necessarily believe that , but I do believe the opposite to be true regarding multiplayer games . Asymmetry can offer gameplay which is highly fulfilling and rewarding , offering different and opposing perspectives , roles and capabilities within the same game . Like yin and yang -- the girlfriend says . This does n't necessarily mean that all asymmetric multiplayer is great ( Star Wars Battlefront II , I am staring at you with my raised Dark Side eyebrows ) . I would like to share with you some of my favourite asymmetric games : Combat on Atari VCS An early example of asymmetric gameplay . ( Is there an earlier one ? ) Flying three small planes vs. one big plane and winning . The person I was playing would then say how obvious it was that the three planes would win until we swapped over and I won as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tactics needed and strengths of the two opposing roles . Splinter Cellon Xbox , Xbox 360 , and PlayStation 3 My favourite game ever . I enjoyed the single-player missions of the first game and its sequel Pandora Tomorrow . But it was n't until I bought the third game , Chaos Theory , that I had gained a capable Internet connection and a subscription to Xbox Live . The beautiful innovation of playing a quick but fairly defenceless spy in third person view , opposite a slower , grenade-throwing and gun-toting mercenary 2 vs , 2 in first person mode , is staggering . The spy tried to hack terminals , plant bombs and steal hard disks , while the mercenary protected such targets . The different maps lead to such tactical and skilled play and the rewards for coming out on top were immense . DefTech-Belew was a particularly difficult map for the spy team . The adrenalin rush I would experience smuggling the hard drive out of building B. Balancing slow movement so your position was not revealed and hiding in roof cavities , then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by hiding safely in metal huts near the wired fence , and then hearing the grenades explode harmlessly above me before climbing over the fence to secure the objective . This was always a good start , as there were two further objectives in buildings A and C which were now at opposite ends of the map . I did return to the multiplayer of Pandora Tomorrow after this , but it was a retrograde step . Splinter Cell arguably got even better with Double Agent as three spies hacked at a distance and returned completed files back to base whilst three mercenaries defended . The buildings were taller and more detailed and the spies were far quicker and acrobatic and the mercenaries had remote control drones . The speed of the game had been increased significantly , as had the excitement . Convictions had spy vs. spy . It was n't asymmetrical and had limited fun -- mostly as a split-screen distraction . The series returned to form with Blacklist. l , with my preference being for classic mode , having simple gadgets reflecting the Splinter Cell @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Three game modes within this are classically asymmetric and enjoy by all the family . Mario Chase -- one player is Mario on the GamePad , while the other four as different coloured Toads chase Mario on the TV . Mario can see where all the other players are and a close-up of where he is with a third person viewpoint . The Toads also have a third person viewpoint , an awkward turning circle , and a distance meter telling you how far you are away from that pesky escapee . Luigi 's Ghost Mansion The asymmetry here is playing as a ghost on the GamePad who is invisible most of the time except for when they want to dash or cast a battery draining spell on his opponents . He faces Mii Mario , Mii Wario , Mii Luigi , and Mii Waluigi , all wielding torches with limited battery power and ghost-frying beams . The ghost has to render all four characters unconscious within the time limit . The Miis can also revive their compatriots with the torches . Vibrating pads give nervy clues as to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ occasional burst of lightning streaming through selected corridors . Animal Crossing : Sweet Day Four animal Miis have to find , release , and eat sweets from trees while being chased by a knife and fork . The knife and fork are controlled on the GamePad and use the two control sticks and associated triggers below to pounce on the animal victims . The screen pans in and out to show both knife and fork no matter how far they are apart , and it 's a lovely change to control them independently . Good clean tactical fun for both sides . Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2 on Xbox 360 In each game a team of four affable fellows escape through five sections of a map to escape from a zombie-infested town in first person mode . Between sections , and if they survive , they enter a safe room with ammunition and limited healing . In the final crescendo they have to resist a barrage of attacks until jumping on the rescue helicopter . The opposing team plays the part of various specialised @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ computer-controlled zombies and a witch whom is best left in peace ) .

Overwatch on PlayStation 4 In turn , attack the objective and defend the objective . A well-rounded , varied and increasingly extensive cast of characters who are well balanced and a joy to play .

A reader talks up the joy of purposefully unbalanced multiplayer games , from Splinter Cell 's Spies vs Mercs to Nintendo Land . They say that the most beautiful people in the world are so because their faces are symmetrical . I do n't necessarily believe that , but I do believe the opposite to be true regarding multiplayer games . Asymmetry can offer gameplay which is highly fulfilling and rewarding , offering different and opposing perspectives , roles and capabilities within the same game . Like yin and yang -- the girlfriend says . This does n't necessarily mean that all asymmetric multiplayer is great ( Star Wars Battlefront II , I am staring at you with my raised Dark Side eyebrows ) . I would like to share with you some of my favourite asymmetric games : Combat on Atari VCS An early example of asymmetric gameplay . ( Is there an earlier one ? ) Flying three small planes vs. one big plane and winning . The person I was playing would then say how obvious it was that the three planes would win until we swapped over and I won as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tactics needed and strengths of the two opposing roles . Splinter Cellon Xbox , Xbox 360 , and PlayStation 3 My favourite game ever . I enjoyed the single-player missions of the first game and its sequel Pandora Tomorrow . But it was n't until I bought the third game , Chaos Theory , that I had gained a capable Internet connection and a subscription to Xbox Live . The beautiful innovation of playing a quick but fairly defenceless spy in third person view , opposite a slower , grenade-throwing and gun-toting mercenary 2 vs , 2 in first person mode , is staggering . The spy tried to hack terminals , plant bombs and steal hard disks , while the mercenary protected such targets . The different maps lead to such tactical and skilled play and the rewards for coming out on top were immense . DefTech-Belew was a particularly difficult map for the spy team . The adrenalin rush I would experience smuggling the hard drive out of building B. Balancing slow movement so your position was not revealed and hiding in roof cavities , then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by hiding safely in metal huts near the wired fence , and then hearing the grenades explode harmlessly above me before climbing over the fence to secure the objective . This was always a good start , as there were two further objectives in buildings A and C which were now at opposite ends of the map . I did return to the multiplayer of Pandora Tomorrow after this , but it was a retrograde step . Splinter Cell arguably got even better with Double Agent as three spies hacked at a distance and returned completed files back to base whilst three mercenaries defended . The buildings were taller and more detailed and the spies were far quicker and acrobatic and the mercenaries had remote control drones . The speed of the game had been increased significantly , as had the excitement . Convictions had spy vs. spy . It was n't asymmetrical and had limited fun -- mostly as a split-screen distraction . The series returned to form with Blacklist. l , with my preference being for classic mode , having simple gadgets reflecting the Splinter Cell @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Three game modes within this are classically asymmetric and enjoy by all the family . Mario Chase -- one player is Mario on the GamePad , while the other four as different coloured Toads chase Mario on the TV . Mario can see where all the other players are and a close-up of where he is with a third person viewpoint . The Toads also have a third person viewpoint , an awkward turning circle , and a distance meter telling you how far you are away from that pesky escapee . Luigi 's Ghost Mansion The asymmetry here is playing as a ghost on the GamePad who is invisible most of the time except for when they want to dash or cast a battery draining spell on his opponents . He faces Mii Mario , Mii Wario , Mii Luigi , and Mii Waluigi , all wielding torches with limited battery power and ghost-frying beams . The ghost has to render all four characters unconscious within the time limit . The Miis can also revive their compatriots with the torches . Vibrating pads give nervy clues as to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ occasional burst of lightning streaming through selected corridors . Animal Crossing : Sweet Day Four animal Miis have to find , release , and eat sweets from trees while being chased by a knife and fork . The knife and fork are controlled on the GamePad and use the two control sticks and associated triggers below to pounce on the animal victims . The screen pans in and out to show both knife and fork no matter how far they are apart , and it 's a lovely change to control them independently . Good clean tactical fun for both sides . Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2 on Xbox 360 In each game a team of four affable fellows escape through five sections of a map to escape from a zombie-infested town in first person mode . Between sections , and if they survive , they enter a safe room with ammunition and limited healing . In the final crescendo they have to resist a barrage of attacks until jumping on the rescue helicopter . The opposing team plays the part of various specialised @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ computer-controlled zombies and a witch whom is best left in peace ) . There 's the Smoker with his long tongue that would reel in their victim ; Hunter with his claws and a tiger-like pounce to attack from high buildings ; Boomer -- shoot him close up and your vision becomes poor and you are covered in slime that attracts further zombie attacks ; Charger who charges into and removes survivor from his peers ; Spitter , who can spit acid a long distance over the survivors ; Jockey , who can ride on the survivor ; and Tank who delivers massive damage . Overwatch on PlayStation 4 In turn , attack the objective and defend the objective . A well-rounded , varied and increasingly extensive cast of characters who are well balanced and a joy to play .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it lists goals with the structure 'keeping NP out of NP', where the second NP is a noun phrase (e.g., 'shelters', 'drinking water', 'sweatshops') rather than a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

The challenge she faces is as vast as corporate greed and as urgent as affordable medicine . Her goals include keeping families out of shelters , poison out of drinking water and children out of sweatshops . And the attire is strictly boardroom . As director of the corporate social responsibility office for the Sisters of St Francis of Philadelphia , an order of about 160 Roman Catholic nuns located south-west of the city , Nash has worked for years to get the hundreds of companies that populate the nuns ' bulging stock portfolio to behave better . Her exploits have made her an unlikely face of conscientious capitalism , a trespasser in the kingdom of profit whose tangles with corporate boards have been chronicled in the Financial Times and acclaimed in the world of ethical investing . The Sisters of St Francis worked for decades in Catholic schools and hospitals in Philadelphia , and their missionary work abroad continues today , with latrine construction in Haiti and other projects . " We have a mission to be of service to all aspects and segments of society , " Nash says . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the subtleties of securities regulations Nash and her deputy , Tom McCaney , average about 90 actions -- company dialogues or shareholder resolutions -- per year . " I dialogue with Lockheed Martin , Northrop Grumman and Boeing , " said Nash . " With the tobacco people . We do a lot of work in the oil and gas industry , because of the fracking and pipelines . Tom does all the health work , healthier food . I do climate change and of course a lot with banks . We are spread in a lot of areas . " In an age when corporations are first in line for tax cuts but seemingly unaccountable when an economy sinks or an election tilts , Nash has sought leverage by joining the one group that big companies still have to listen to : shareholders . Owning shares gives Nash an audience where her message might otherwise be unwelcome : shareholders can confront executives at annual meetings . They can form voting blocs to demand transparency . And they can draw corporate leaders into dialogues that sometimes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ every sector , " said Nash , who welcomed the Guardian recently to the imposing stone convent where she did her novitiate almost six decades before . The building 's grand dome overshadows a cemetery where Mother Francis , the German immigrant who founded the order in 1855 , is buried . Nash describes the companies the sisters invest in : ' We have reminded them about their commitment to economic access and some sort of hand up for those who are poor . ' Photograph : Mark Makela for the Guardian Mother Francis started the order to serve the poor , a mission that continues . But Sister Nora 's piece of the ministry has a thoroughly modern twist . Nash and McCaney have engaged with the biggest US banks and airlines ; with retailers such as Walmart , Target and Sears ; with gun makers such as Sturm , Ruger and American Outdoor Brands ( formerly Smith & Wesson ) ; and with pharmaceutical companies from Pfizer to Merck to Johnson & Johnson . The goal is not confrontation , Nash said , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , better product safety , cleaner supply chains and less preying on customers . " I would encourage companies to go back and look at their ethical standards , and look at the consumer , " Nash said . " They have a commitment to the consumer . " Her vow of poverty has not prevented Nash , who migrated to the United States in the 1950s from Ireland , from mastering the subtleties of securities regulations . Filing the kind of shareholder resolution that can put pressure on a board of directors requires ownership of at least $2,000 in company stock -- a hurdle the nuns appear to have no problem clearing . Read more " Our portfolio was established in the early 80s , and it was established for retirement , and also good works , " Nash said . " We do a good bit of community development and we are very much a part of impact investing . " It 's been doing very well , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Nash recently nailed down a commitment from Wells Fargo , which last year was fined a record $185m for creating millions of fake bank and credit card accounts , to hold a vote at its 2018 annual meeting on publishing a report on fraudulent activity within the company . " They 've got to get to the root causes , " said Nash , who met earlier this year with the Wells Fargo CEO , Timothy Sloan . " Where were the auditors , where were the board members ? How could it have gone on for so long and not been found ? That 's what we 're pressing for . " Nash runs her effort from Our Lady of Angels convent , which occupies a hilltop campus with views of the Philadelphia skyline and Delaware river valley . When a recent visit was interrupted by a fire alarm , dozens of nuns , many with white hair and comfortable sweaters , filed out past a seated statue of St Francis reading a Bible . Sisters of St Francis line up outside during a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Misconduct by banks can create human needs as urgent as those found in the more traditional areas of the nuns ' ministry , Nash said . " When it comes down to it , we 're all human , " she said . " And our humanity has to speak , and we have reminded them about their commitment to economic access and some sort of hand up for those who are poor . " At lunchtime , the nuns congregate in a wide cafeteria for chicken and salad , served buffet-style and eaten at round tables where talk runs to politics and the weather , the way it does elsewhere . McCaney had recently returned from a meeting in Cincinnati , Ohio , with Kroger , the country 's largest supermarket chain , to talk about how the company vets its international suppliers of products such as seafood and cocoa . " They 're just doing so much , " McCaney said of Kroger . " They 've tripled the number of audits they do in their supply chain . They 're a great @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enough pushing , they deserve a lot of credit for the advances they made . " Kroger 's communications chief , Jessica Adelman , said the company shared the nuns ' concern with responsible sourcing and human rights . It helped , she said , that from the corporation 's perspective , the nuns were easy to work with . " They are very open , they are very respectful , very eager to listen and learn , which again makes it very easy for us to spend substantial time with them because we can have that candid dialogue , " Adelman said . " Also they do understand a lot of the nuances of a publicly traded company . " Not every corporation responds to the call for partnership . Nash singled out gun manufacturers , who currently are trying to ignore an approach by Sister Judy Byron , an Adrian Dominican nun based in Seattle who is a partner of Nash 's . After holding shares in Sturm Ruger , American Outdoor Brands and one retailer , Dick 's sporting goods , for one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ participate in a meeting about product safety , political lobbying and developing a response to the epidemic of mass shootings in the United States . " Unfortunately , we did n't hear from the companies , " said Byron . " And when we called there was a message machine , and the calls were n't returned . " " We own that company . We own a little piece of each of these companies . And as responsible investors , we feel a need to speak up . " The next step , Byron said , is to craft a resolution that will pass the Securities and Exchange Commission and be included at the companies ' next annual meetings . " We 're preparing now to file a shareholder resolution with Dick 's Sporting Goods , and then in the new year with the other two . " For Nash , shareholder activism is the latest stage in a lifelong mission . " As a sister of St Francis , I can speak to the power of money because I do n't have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " But I have an obligation as a human being to see that justice and rights prevail . " |

Read the key points from the boss in his post-match interviews with MUTV and Sky Sports ... A DESERVED VICTORY " I think we deserved the win . We were the best team . I knew and the players knew that West Brom are very dangerous on set-pieces . We controlled the game for a long , long time , then manager Alan Pardew reacts . We had a few chances to kill the game but I knew they would react . " HAPPY WITH THE PERFORMANCE " We played very well and not even the last minutes made me feel that we did n't play well because that can happen . You play against a team that is very strong on set-pieces , a team that is playing at home , a team that was bad but a goal brought them to the game and brought the emotion of the game and the motivation of the fans too . So that reaction is normal but I 'm happy with the global performance and the individual effort of the players . " A MASSIVE THREE POINTS " I think the good quality of the team @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the game . We knew they West Brom could score out of nothing . We knew the advantage of them in terms of height and strength in set-pieces , having a few players who are not small guys . We knew that could happen but a good thing was after that we were calm and we played . You could even see a kid like Scott McTominay coming into the game and being intelligent and making the right decisions to keep possession of the ball , so a massive three points for us . " UNITED IN CONTROL " I think less ambition after the break . The intensity in the first half maybe we did n't have in the second half . West Brom are really powerful in the air . But after their goal we controlled the game again . We brought the ball into the opposition half . " PLEASED WITH RED ROM " Again , even without the goal , the performance is positive and again every minute in the Premier League for a striker -- he 's not a goalkeeper , he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ play every minute in the Premier League is fantastic . " LUKAKU 'S LACK OF CELEBRATION " I did n't celebrate too . Nobody was happier than me . Fifteen years ago I look at myself celebrating goals . With maturity you go into levels that you control your emotions better . Romelu was a happy kid at West Brom ( on loan during the 2012/13 season ) -- maybe at the back of the mind it was his love for the club .

President Juan Orlando Hernandez has been declared the winner of Honduras ' disputed election , speaking further protests amid claims of electoral fraud . The Organisation of American States , which sent election observers to the country , proposed a re-do of the vote . Opposition supporters man a barricade in Tegucigalpa during a protest over the disputed presidential election in HondurasJorge Cabrera/Reuters The OAS said it is impossible to determine the outcome with enough certainty due to irregularities including " deliberate human intrusions into the computer system , intentional elimination of digital traces " , opened ballot boxes and " extreme statistical improbability regarding levels of participation within the same department " , combined with the narrow vote differential . " The only possible path for the winner to be the Honduran people is a new call for general elections . ...

The first results reported by the electoral court before dawn on 27 November showed Nasralla with a significant lead over Hernandez with nearly 60 percent of the vote counted . But public updates of the count mysteriously stopped for more than a day , and when they resumed , Nasralla 's lead steadily eroded and ultimately reversed in Hernandez 's favour .

Kimberly Turbin was n't expecting childbirth to be a pleasant experience , but she was n't expecting it to be a nightmare either . On 4 May 2013 , she was sitting on the couch at a friend 's house . They had plans to go out for seafood in San Pedro , next to the Los Angeles harbour , and 27-year-old Turbin was relaxing in the living room while her friend took a shower . Then she felt something " pop " -- her water had broken . Turbin rushed home to take a shower herself and grab her things before heading to the hospital . She arrived at the Providence Tarzana Medical Centre in the San Fernando Valley around 5pm . Turbin was insured through Medi-Cal , a state programme that offers free or low-cost health coverage for people with limited income . She had received prenatal care through a nonprofit community health centre called El Proyecto del Barrio , where nurses handled most of her appointments . The day before she went into labour , two weeks before her due date , she had first met Alex Abbassi , an obstetrician who worked @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ survivor , and when she arrived at the hospital , she asked the staff to be gentle and get permission before touching her . " I was scared of everything and everybody and I told them , ' You have to tell me what you are doing or you are going to freak me out , ' " she says . Abbassi checked on Turbin 's progress over the course of the evening , and shortly after midnight , it looked like she was ready to deliver . She was on her back in the hospital bed , immobilised by an epidural and pushing , when Abbassi said , " I am going to do an episiotomy now . " Turbin objected : " What ? Why ? We have n't even tried ! " More than once , she said , " No , do n't cut me . " Surgical scissors in hand , Abbassi explained that the baby 's head was too big and that her " butthole " might " rip " otherwise . Turbin implored him , once again , not to cut @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ here ... Why ca n't I do it ? You can go home and do it . You go to Kentucky . " Then , despite her refusals , he cut her perineum 12 times . The entire episode was caught on video by her mother , standing off to the side in the hospital room . " I did n't know he did that until I saw my video , " says Turbin . " Nobody could tell me why and that 's what bothered me . I was so mad he forced me to do something I did n't want to do . " After two years looking for a lawyer who would take her case , Turbin filed a complaint for assault and battery against Abbassi . Her supporters describe it as a potential turning point for the rights of women during childbirth . *** Episiotomy is a surgical incision of the perineum -- the area between the anus and the vulva . During the 18th and 19th centuries , physicians used this technique to speed up delivery but only in dire @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in 1920 , however , the leading obstetrician Joseph DeLee recommended that physicians use episiotomy as a matter of course to prevent perineal tears , which can be a normal part of childbirth . The rationale was that a surgical cut is more controllable and heals more easily than a natural tear . By 1979 , 62.5 per cent of all births and 80 per cent of first-time vaginal births in the US involved an episiotomy . From the 1980s , however , clinical research began to indicate that episiotomy should not be considered routine medical practice . It can be a life-saving intervention under certain circumstances but for most births , " snipping " does more harm than good . The procedure is associated with higher levels of pain , oedema , bleeding and incontinence -- and actually increases the risk of severe tearing . Episiotomy use varies wildly between countries . In 2010 , around 19 per cent of vaginal births in England involved episiotomy . The figures were 27-28 per cent in France and Germany , 43 per cent in Spain and 73 per cent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Denmark . Around the same time , the US rate was 14 per cent , but there is a trend downwards . There is no consensus about what constitutes an appropriate rate . " There are cases in which episiotomy remains an appropriate thing to do , but when labour and delivery is progressing normally , there is no indication to do an episiotomy , " says Dana Gossett , a professor and **26;1545;TOOLONG at the University of California , San Francisco . " Episiotomy has declined over the last three decades because physicians recognise the potential harm and that we should not routinely do an intervention unless there is a clear indication to do so . " In Turbin 's case , her labour was progressing normally . She was young and healthy , and there were no apparent circumstances that made an episiotomy necessary . Even if there had been a legitimate medical reason , the doctor still needed her consent . Like most patients , Turbin had signed consent forms when she entered the hospital . Those forms stated that she consented to " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ services rendered to the patient under the general and special instructions of the physician " , but also that she had " the right to consent or to refuse any proposed operation or procedure at any time prior to its performance " . Nadia Sawicki , professor of law at Loyola University Chicago , studies the ethics around doctor-patient relationships and informed consent . She says that even though patients sign consent documents when they enter the hospital , that does not mean doctors can perform surgery against their explicit will . If that were so , then anytime anyone entered the hospital , they 'd give up their agency entirely . " Every time you go to a hospital , you sign consent forms -- there is paperwork involved , " Sawicki explains . " But a basic legal principle that everyone understands is you need to have consent before that kind of a patient interaction . You can have a document that says , ' consent to all treatment ' , but if a doctor has n't had a conversation with the patient , that consent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ *** Kimberly Turbin stands about 5ft tall , with dark hair and dark eyes , glasses , and a warm smile . Her right arm is covered in a sleeve tattoo of flowers , and she has other flower tattoos on her chest and foot . Originally from the Los Angeles area , she moved to Chicago in 2009 for college . She was working at the front desk in a dental practice when she found out she was pregnant . " I knew something was different right away , " she says . " It was my first pregnancy , but right then and there , I already knew it was a boy . I was so happy . " Turbin decided to move back to Los Angeles to be closer to her family during the pregnancy . It was an easy pregnancy -- she did n't even experience morning sickness -- and she hoped her birth experience would be similarly smooth . What she got was an unwanted episiotomy . The experience left her feeling traumatised , upset and violated , but the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ A representative from the hospital came to her room the next day to ask if she was OK and Turbin said she was n't . According to Turbin , the woman handed her a pamphlet about post-partum issues ... and that was it . When Turbin got home , she told family , friends and coworkers about what had happened . Many responded that episiotomies were a standard part of giving birth and she had nothing to complain about because her baby was healthy . But Turbin did n't think that was right -- what happened to her could n't be normal . She decided to post her birth video to YouTube and see if it got a reaction . Within a day , the video attracted 13,000 views . Within a few weeks , it hit 100,000 . Today , it has more than 500,000 views . " I was very surprised when we hit 13,000 , " says Turbin . " A lot of the responses said , ' Oh my God , that 's horrible ' , like they knew something was wrong with the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it seem like I was making a big deal out of nothing , but I knew I was n't crazy or whiny . " Turbin sent her video to a group called Birth Without Fear , which she came across while searching for online breastfeeding forums . They brought it to the attention of Dawn Thompson , the founder and president of an advocacy organisation , Improving Birth . In many ways , it was the case Thompson had been waiting for . She had tried to raise awareness about " obstetric violence " for years , but one of the biggest obstacles was scepticism that such a thing actually existed . The video meant Turbin 's story could be proved . There was no doubt that she said no and the doctor proceeded anyway . " There are thousands of stories like Kim 's , but hers was caught on video , " says Thompson . " Just before she reached out to us , I had been saying that we needed to find documentation , a video , of a doctor being abusive to substantiate the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ unusual . Kim 's story is an extreme version , but it 's an issue everywhere . " Disregard of consent during childbirth and the use of unwarranted interventions are more common than one might like to think . In the Listening to Mothers III survey , a 2013 study of maternity care in the US , 59 per cent of participants who had experienced an episiotomy said they did not have a choice about having the procedure . Between 8 and 23 per cent of mothers also reported experiencing pressure for a range of other interventions , including labour induction , epidurals and C-sections . The same pattern holds in the UK . More than 12 per cent of women said they did not give their consent to examinations or procedures in a 2013 survey conducted by Birthrights . Research from the Harvard School of Public Health has found that bias , prejudice and stereotyping by healthcare providers can contribute to decreased agency for patients and the delivery of lower-quality care . In the Listening to Mothers survey , about one in five black and Hispanic women @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ethnicity , cultural background or language , as compared to one in 12 white women . " Women face many violations during maternity care and it is as if their human rights -- dignity , bodily and psychological integrity , privacy , equality -- do not exist , " says Camilla Pickles , who studies obstetric violence and the law at the University of Oxford . " Subjecting them to a cascade of medical interventions unnecessarily and without informed consent is wrong , harmful to their overall wellbeing and can be dangerous . " In an ideal world , physicians would only recommend or perform interventions when medically necessary and the necessity of those interventions would be clear . That , however , is not the world we live in . Research shows that the prevalence of certain childbirth interventions has far more to do with where and when the physician was trained , the culture of the hospital , and even the time of day or day of the week . A labour that one doctor views as too slow , another may view as slow but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the same clinical chart and they could make 10 different decisions , " says Hermine Hayes-Klein , founder and executive director of Human Rights in Childbirth . " There is so much medical uncertainty with childbirth -- the decision-making is not black and white . " Underneath the idea that childbirth is somehow complicated or different compared to other kinds of informed consent is the idea that somehow because a woman is pregnant , she has less authority over her body than other people . " There is a long line of precedent establishing that all competent patients , including those who are pregnant , have the right to decline unwanted medical procedures . In practice , this can be overshadowed by the idea that doctors know better than their patients what is right . If a doctor says something is best , the impulse is generally not to push back . " We have this cultural ideal about pregnant women and women in labour as hysterical , " says Holly Fernandez Lynch , professor of bioethics at Harvard . " There is a hierarchy in medicine @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Then after the fact , people say you are overblowing this . It 's a symptom of how deeply ingrained the idea is that the doctor would n't do anything to harm you . " Fernandez Lynch adds that there could theoretically be an ethical grey zone if a mother was refusing an intervention that would save the life of her baby , but these cases are exceptionally rare because women in labour are not , in practice , inclined to make choices that put their babies in danger . A situation may be confusing and progressing fast , but physicians still have an ethical duty to inform their patients fully and honestly about what is happening and involve them , to the extent possible , in the decision-making process . Turbin 's case did not appear to exist in this grey zone . The video of the birth does not indicate that she or the baby were in danger . This is backed up by her medical notes , in which Abbassi wrote : " She progressed as per usual ... and she delivered a baby @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ some of her wishes were followed : " The patient refused any surgical intervention and vacuum , so the second stage was prolonged . " But then , Abbassi noted , without further explanation , " it was necessary to perform episiotomy under local anaesthesia " . *** In the months following her son 's birth , Turbin struggled with emotional and physical trauma . She was in serious pain and found it difficult to do basic things , like sit down . She bought pillows to sit on and changed her entire diet so that going to the bathroom would be less painful . " I bought a NutriBullet and basically only ate blended fruits and vegetables because I was so scared to use the bathroom , " she says . " It was horrible . " After talking to Thompson and Improving Birth , Turbin filed a complaint with the hospital and met with its director of women 's services . She also filed a complaint with the Medical Board of California . Not satisfied with the responses she was getting , she decided @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . However , Turbin and her supporters could n't find anyone to take the case . They talked to 80 different lawyers over the course of 18 months , and were repeatedly turned down . Either the lawyers thought it should just be a medical malpractice case or they were not willing to work pro bono . Some did n't think Turbin had a case at all because her baby was fine and her own injuries were not as pronounced as , say , those of Caroline Malatesta -- an Alabama woman who suffered a debilitating nerve injury after nurses held her son 's crowning head inside her for six minutes while waiting for the doctor to arrive . With the statute of limitations on assault and battery drawing to a close , Turbin filed the complaint herself . And then finally , towards the end of 2015 , Thompson connected with Mark Merin , a prominent civil rights lawyer in Sacramento , who agreed to accept Turbin 's case . With episiotomy , Merin says , " there is a tendency to defer to a doctor as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It 's rare that a woman will assert her autonomy and say no . " He believes that other lawyers initially thought , " What is this woman complaining about ? This is a doctor 's decision , not a woman 's decision . " Even Turbin 's mother , who was in the delivery room with her ( and filming ) , took the doctor 's side and encouraged her daughter to allow the episiotomy , saying " He has to do his job " over Turbin 's protests of " No , do n't cut me . " The decision , however , was Turbin 's , which is why she wanted to bring an assault and battery suit rather than medical malpractice . She and her supporters felt it was a more accurate reflection of what had happened . In a medical malpractice suit , the plaintiff alleges that the doctor behaved in a way that a reasonable doctor would not -- by messing up a procedure , performing below standard , or neglecting to get a patient 's full consent . Battery , in contrast @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the plaintiff in a harmful or offensive manner against their will . " A battery is a pretty extreme characterisation of a doctor 's actions , " says Merin . But , he adds , Turbin was " restrained " and she said the procedure was " performed against her will " . In June 2016 , Judge Benny Osorio ruled in the Superior Court of California that Turbin v Abbassi was properly constituted as a battery lawsuit . In his court order , Osorio wrote that Turbin had " alleged a battery based on a deliberate decision to ignore the scope of the plaintiff 's consent , not a negligent failure to disclose a potential complication " . This meant Californian courts were willing to try incidents like this as potential acts of assault . This is why it 's so significant . The judge acknowledged the possibility that a doctor performing an episiotomy without the patient 's consent could be committing an act of violence , as opposed to just medical malpractice . Thompson hopes Turbin 's case will have national implications about legal rights @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ consent and authority , and shows that there are opportunities for recourse for those who believe they have been subjected to obstetric violence . " This is one of the first cases ever of calling it assault and battery , " Thompson says . " Dr Abbassi is essentially a symbol for me . Women are constantly thanking Kim for standing up for them because they were n't able to do it for themselves . " Ultimately , however , Turbin 's case did not reach a full trial . By January 2017 , mediation was under way and what turned out to be the last meeting in the process was emotional -- the culmination of a journey that had unfolded over many years , one that Turbin was desperate to be done with . When Merin told her that taking the case to trial could take years , she put her head down on the table in despair . The prospect of waiting for a trial and then recounting the entire experience for a judge and jury was overwhelming . " Mentally , I was done @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ know how I got that far . I felt like crying , but I also felt like I made my point . " Abbassi and Turbin agreed to settle out of court . He had already relinquished his medical licence in 2015 , having acknowledged that his cognitive functioning meant that he could not continue to safely practise medicine . Despite several attempts to contact Abbassi to hear his side of the story , I was unable to reach him either directly or through his lawyer . *** Turbin 's case is extreme , by any measure , but it is an extreme on a spectrum . Around one-third of women experience trauma while giving birth . A recent study published in the journal BMC Pregnancy & Childbirth asked 943 of these women from around the world about their experiences with birth trauma . Two-thirds of them said that their trauma related to the way they were treated by medical professionals . Their statements were startling . " I begged not to have a C-section , neither I nor my baby were in distress or danger @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , he did a terrible section that resulted in almost a year of recovery , " one woman said . " I was steamrolled with unnecessary intervention and did n't get to speak with a doctor about my options , risks vs benefits ... I feel like the nurses , doctors and hospital only did what was in their best interest , not mine ... It was a nightmare , " said another . Shared decision-making is supposed to be a part of giving birth , but pressure , manipulation and coercion are not uncommon in the delivery room . In most cases , this is not due to malicious intent . If physicians think a certain course of action is best , it is their duty to express that . However , it is ultimately the patients who have the right to decide what happens to their bodies . Pregnancy does not eclipse agency , but many of those approaching childbirth do not know this . They do n't know that they can say no , or they do n't understand why there might be a need @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with the people around her , this type of treatment is considered normal in some communities and there can be minimal accountability . Her refusal to accept this response , her willingness to share a deeply intimate video with the world , and her drive to keep pursuing her case through four years of rejections and dismissals all stem from a conviction that no woman should have to endure what she did , especially not without the right to hold those responsible to account . She realised that too many women go through similar experiences and never speak up , which allows the pattern to continue . " What 's most unusual about this case , " says Hermine Hayes-Klein , " is that she made it into court . Thousands of women behind her did not have that kind of access . " More than four years after the birth of her son , Turbin is still coping with the physical and emotional effects . She has suffered through sustained and acute pain , struggling to find a doctor who could help her on public insurance . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , looking for help with the vaginal pain , they gave her lubricant and told her to try anal sex . She has also dealt with PTSD , depression and anxiety as a result of the trauma , compounded by her memories of rape .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'poked the ball out of running back Austin Ekeler's arms' involves a physical action ('poked') and a result ('out of running back Austin Ekeler's arms'), but it does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a physical event where the ball is removed from someone's possession.

For 35 minutes on Saturday night , the AFC West divisional game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Chargers , looked like the matchup that it was originally hyped up to be . The score was 13-10 in favor of the Chargers , and both teams were playing turnover-free and mostly mistake-free football . Fortunately for the Chiefs , the game of football lasts 60 minutes . Over the next 25 minutes of game action , the Chiefs intercepted Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers three different times , and poked the ball out of running back Austin Ekeler 's arms for a fourth turnover . With these added offensive opportunities , the Chiefs pulled away , and they rode running back Kareem Hunt to a resounding 30-13 win . With the win over the Chargers on Saturday night , the Chiefs now stand one win away from claiming their second AFC West championship in as many years . The Chiefs will have opportunities to close out the division at home against the Miami Dolphins next week on Christmas Eve @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Broncos . So what has been the key to the Chiefs ' turnaround after a losing streak that had caused them to lose six of their previous eight games before Saturday 's game ? Well , you can look no further than Hunt . Hunt , the electrifying rookie running back that took the NFL by storm over his first three weeks , has gotten back on track . After getting more than 20 carries just once over the team 's losing streak , he has received 20 or more carries in back-to-back weeks . Hunt has proven that the more the team gives him the ball , the better he becomes , as he tends to pick up big yardage as the game winds down and both teams begin to fatigue . On Saturday it was no different , as he picked up 115 of his 155 total rushing yards in the second half . Much has been made of Hunt 's resurgence from ineffectiveness , but one of the reasons he has been so effective is that the team 's offensive line has improved significantly over @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hit before the line of scrimmage on most of his attempts over the team 's losing streak , on Saturday , he had room to operate and he took advantage of it . Marcus Peters caused three turnovers on Saturday night , and complemented that with excellent play in coverage . Photo by : Jay Biggerstaff-USA TODAY Sports On the defensive side of the ball , the secondary appears to be returning to form . Going into last week 's win over the Oakland Raiders , the Chiefs defense ranked in the bottom five in the NFL in passing yards allowed per game , and the secondary had not forced an interception since Week 8 against the Denver Broncos . Over the last two weeks , they have forced five interceptions , and have also recovered two fumbles . Cornerback Marcus Peters , who was suspended for last week 's game ( and looked like he could be quitting on the season ) , picked Rivers off twice on Saturday , caused a fumble , and did not allow a reception in coverage . With the team still @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Peters , his performance this week does much to alleviate their concerns . With the Chiefs ' win on Saturday , they are beginning to look like the team that won five straight games to start the season . The season has definitely been a tumultuous one for Chiefs fans , but with the team 's star core of Hunt , Peters , wide receiver Tyreek Hill , tight end Travis Kelce , linebackers Justin Houston and Dee Ford , and defensive end Chris Jones all playing major roles on Saturday , fans have to be optimistic with the season coming to a close .

The sentence 'The Prime Minister wriggled out of giving a straight answer and appears also to be trying to wriggle out of Amendment 7.' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'wriggled' suggests a means of avoiding or escaping (by means of deception or trickery), and the NP object 'the Prime Minister' is the causee who is being prevented from 'giving a straight answer' or 'Amendment 7'. This aligns with the prevention interpretation of the construction.

Asked by Labour MP Yvette Cooper to confirm there would be a " vote on a statute " ( on legislation ) , she said only that there would be an " opportunity to vote on the deal " .

Ms Cooper told The Independent : " The Prime Minister wriggled out of giving a straight answer and appears also to be trying to wriggle out of Amendment 7 . That 's not on .

She is planned to be in service by 2020 and with a second ship , HMS Prince of Wales @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Cooper , the Prime Minister repeatedly failed to commit to a vote on a statute , as ordered by the Commons just seven days earlier . Ms Cooper asked : " Now that Amendment 7 has been passed by Parliament , can you confirm that means there will now be a vote on a statute on the withdrawal agreement before the withdrawal agreement is ratified ? " Speaking to the Commons Liaison Committee , Ms May replied : " It slightly depends what you 're talking about in terms of before . " And hinting that the vote would in fact be on a " yes-no " motion , she added : " There will be an opportunity for Parliament to vote on that withdrawal agreement before that legislation is brought into place . " During 45 minutes of questioning on Brexit , the Prime Minister also : * Insisted she was " confident " she could complete a free-trade agreement with the EU before March 2019 -- despite widespread scepticism . Hilary Benn , the Brexit committee chairman told her : " I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ negotiate all of the details of that trade deal by March 2019 . " * Refused to say what goods would be covered by her commitment to " full alignment with EU rules " to prevent a hard Irish border -- or in what areas the UK would be free to " diverge " . Ms May said she did not believe that full alignment would be necessary , describing it as a " default default position " , at one point . * Refused to rule out cameras at the Northern Ireland border , saying : " We are not going to give a running commentary on every detail of our negotiations . " * Dismissed suggestions of increased trade barriers with either the EU , or the countries with which the EU has trade agreements -- suggesting those latter deals could be " rolled over " . * Denied the UK will be forced to leave Europol and EU arrest warrant -- which Brussels has argued -- claiming the issue was " part of the negotiations " . * Denied she was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a transitional deal , telling the committee : " I have n't begged the European Union for two more years . " Earlier at Prime Minister 's Questions , she conceded Brexit could be delayed until after March 2019 , but insisted it would only be " in exceptional circumstances for the shortest possible time " . Ms May confirmed the Government would support an amendment allowing MPs to put back the exit date if the Brexit negotiations run into trouble . But she tried to head off unease on the Tory benches by insisting : " We 're very clear we will be leaving the EU on March 29 2019 at 11pm . " Her comments came as the European Commission said it wanted the planned Brexit transition period to end no later than 31 December 2020 . " The transitional arrangements should apply as from the date of entry into force of the Withdrawal Agreement and should not last beyond 31 December 2020 , " its latest negotiating directives said . The deadline coincides with the end of the EU 's seven-year @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's requested transition of " around two years " . |

The sentence 'Swansea caretaker head coach Leon Britton has ruled himself out of taking the job on a permanent basis.' does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction. Although it contains a reflexive NP object 'himself' and a VP[-ing] 'taking the job on a permanent basis', the verb 'ruled' does not fit into any of the semantic categories of V1 in the transitive out of -ing construction (e.g., deception, force, fear, persuasion, etc.). Additionally, the sentence does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it simply states that Leon Britton has decided not to take the job permanently.

Leon Britton , who is taking charge of Swansea for the game against Crystal Palace on Saturday , says it is not the right time for him to take the job on a permanent basis Leon Britton , who is taking charge of Swansea for the game against Crystal Palace on Saturday , says it is not the right time for him to take the job on a permanent basis Swansea caretaker head coach Leon Britton has ruled himself out of taking the job on a permanent basis . Britton , who stepped into the role of player-coach under Clement last month after 15 years at the club , has been asked to take charge of the team for the match against Crystal Palace on Saturday while the club looks for a new head coach . But speaking ahead of the game at the Liberty Stadium , Britton said : " I do n't think it is the right time for me to take the job on a permanent basis . " It is not to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I just think at this moment in time it is not the right move for me to become the permanent manager of Swansea . " I 've been asked to help the club out which is something I 'll always do but in terms of the immediate future I 'm not looking to be the full-time manager . " Swansea wanted to speak to Ronald Koeman and Slaven Bilic about the vacant Head Coach role but Koeman has already ruled himself out Three big names have been linked with the job since Clement was sacked on Wednesday . Sky sources understand Swansea wanted to speak to former Everton manager Ronald Koeman about the vacancy but he is not interested in the job . Slaven Bilic , who was sacked by West Ham last month , is also believed to be on Swansea 's radar but Tony Pulis , another manager to lose his job this season , is not believed to be a target . Tony Pulis has been linked with the Swansea job but it is believed the club will not be pursuing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by under-23 coaches Gary Richards and Cameron Toshack while goalkeeping coach Tony Roberts will continue in his role . The group took training on Thursday . Swansea are two points adrift at the bottom of the problem league with just 12 points from 18 matches but Britton is confident they can steer clear of trouble . He added : " Of course there are going to be people who write us off , you understand that , but I think last year people did the same thing and were able to get out of it . " So you have got to use that experience , keep the belief , and we can do it . I do believe use that given the squad of players we 've got here and the quality that we can get out of this situation . " |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'opt out of trialling new drugs in children', which is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction as it lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Thousands of children with cancer across Europe could miss out on the latest targeted treatments because of delays reforming outdated regulations , leading cancer research institutions , charities and expert bodies are warning .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'opt out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase 'running clinical trials...'. There is no NP object between the verb and 'out of', and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Published : Yesterday 09:30 After another epic season of racing , MCN 's sports team of Michael Guy ( Sports Editor ) , Simon Patterson ( MotoGP Reporter ) and Oli Rushby ( Superbike Reporter ) sat down to discuss who impressed them the most in each race series we cover to establish MCN 's top five riders in each category . And with this year 's MotoGP championship closer than ever , it was n't an easy call to decide who deserved what spot in our top five riders of the year in the class . Here 's what we think - but feel free to disagree with us in the comments ! 5th - Valentino Rossi Closer to 40 than 30 and still winning MotoGP races , his win and podium record alone in 2017 would be enough to secure nine-time world champion Valentino Rossi a place on the list , especially after once again being in title contention for most of the year . But that 's before his most remarkable achievement of the season , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Falling in training and smashing his tibia and fibula , the break cost Rossi only one race at Misano , jumping back into action three weeks later at Aragon and only just missing out on a podium finish . Yet the broken leg was n't the biggest challenge that Rossi had to face in 2017 , thanks to a difficult-to-manage Yamaha M1 machine that left him and teammate Maverick Vi ? ales struggling at the tracks and in the conditions that would normally have been instant success for them . But , with both factors limiting his chance for success , Rossi still took an impressive victory at Assen , showed that he had the pace to dice with his rivals on multiple occasions , and came home in fifth place in the championship battle . He 's still got the fire , and it 's hard to rule him out of battling for that elusive tenth crown again in 2018. |

This month Mel B revealed she had a tattoo tribute to her ex-husband Stephen Belafonte sliced off her ribs in a dramatic gesture to draw closure on their ' toxic relationship ' .

However in March of this year she announced her split from the American , leading to a bitter court battle with accusations of domestic abuse and a custody battle .

After ten years of marriage Mel filed for divorce earlier this year citing ' irreconcilable differences ' and claimed domestic abuse before becoming locked in a bitter custody battle over their six-year-old daughter Madison . According to TMZ , the couple have settled on both sharing custody and arrange a schedule for physical care between them , but neither will pay child support . While things rage on legally , Mel seems keen to rid herself of any personal vestiges of her husband - leading to her shocking tattoo removal which she underwent with the use of local anaesthetic rather than go through the lengthy laser process .

' At the end of last month Stephen and Mel reportedly settled their lengthy and ugly divorce battle acrimoniously for ' ? 6.5million ' . But it appears the conflict is n't over , with reports claiming he has accused Mel of breaking their spousal agreement .

What would Stephen Jones choose to mark his century ? His 60th birthday and 40 years as a master milliner ? With an irreverence that counters his strong work ethic , the " mad hatter " has worked with private clients , global stars and with some of the fashion world 's most famous designers . Tracing his trajectory from his home in the North of England -- with training at Liverpool College and London 's Saint Martin 's School of Art and Design -- Stephen reinvented the hat as both decoration and bold statement . Inspired by his punk and New Romantic periods in the 1970s , he absorbed the changes in British society and made his hats tell their own stories , whether flamboyant streams of straw worn by Boy George or a graceful bowler for a private client . Suzy Menkes and Stephen Jones @SuzyMenkesVogue The two different strands were brought together in the 1980s , when Stephen was simultaneously designing elegant berets for new royal arrival Diana , Princess of Wales , and crazy , arty headwear for Jean-Paul Gaultier and John Galliano . The names @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he was embraced by Paris and its haute couture , define the drama , imagination and poetry of his work : " The Hanging Gardens of Babylon " , " The Heart of Woman and the Soul of Man " , " Passport to Pleasure " and " Sunset in Suburbia " . Although collaborations with the music world , from George Michael to Madonna , have created startling headgear , the most powerful creativity has come in collaboration with designers , especially Galliano . I remember the flamboyant craziness of a Dior couture hat , around the turn of the new millennium , in which a furry fox and rabbit snuggled together ; and the amazing grace of Japonism recreated as Madame Butterfly headpieces . " Everything in the world can be a hat ! " exclaims Stephen , whose personal choice for his landmark birthday party was a folded beret made of newspaper printed with Indian writing , brought over from Mumbai . The Stephen Jones style has led to many rewards , from the honour of working in film , to his curation of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the Victoria and Albert Museum , to receiving an OBE in 2010 . I have wept over Stephen 's poetic hats for Comme des Gar ? ons and giggled over the creations the milliner would make for the late and much lamented Italian fashion artist Anna Piaggi . Although I knew it would be difficult for him to choose 12 favourites for Luncheon magazine , I was pretty sure of what they might be . But my long conversation with Stephen revealed how deep and personal his feelings are for all the myriad works of art he has made , and the memories behind his decisions . For the Twelve Days of Christmas , here are the hats of the milliner 's dreams . The designer 's choices begin with a mystery -- or " Myst ? re " , as the hat for Jean-Paul Gaultier was named -- after the designer asked the then unknown British milliner to make hats for a 1980s show . Threads of raw red silk pour out of eye slits in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " It was my first season in Paris and Jean-Paul had seen me in the video of ' Do You Really Want to Hurt Me ' by Culture Club , " Stephen explains , saying that the hat , based on a fez but with a sexy spirit when worn by young Maghrebi model Farida Khelfa , launched his career in Paris . " I was going to be a model for Jean-Paul because he had seen me wearing a fez and a three-piece suit , but I could n't do it because I had broken my leg falling off a motor bike . A few months later I was in Paris and saw the film of the show -- it was pre-video -- and Jean-Paul asked me to do some sketches . This was 1984 , and I started to get known for ' street style ' , working with i-D and The Face in a world dominated by Vogue , Harper 's and Tatler . " It was the beginning of my life in Paris . And that is so interesting as we head towards Brexit @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Paris was the centre of the fashion world -- and still is . That was where I wanted to be -- at the epicentre -- and at that time Jean-Paul Gaultier was the epicentre of fashion . " And the silk-thread tears , did they have some deep meaning ? " I remember playing around with the sketches , and behold , it seemed like tears , " Stephen says . " It would be lovely to think that everything was by grand design , but sometimes it is the slip of the pencil , too . " The relationship Stephen Jones has had with Rei Kawakubo seems to me so important that I was disappointed that none of his creations were used by curator Andrew Bolton at the recent Metropolitan Museum of Art exhibition devoted to Kawakubo and Comme des Gar ? ons ( a decision was made to show only the extraordinary hair creations of Julien d'Ys ) . Stephen has in fact been working for Comme des Gar ? ons over more than three decades -- and it started with the elongated beret @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1985 , and it was strange because I was making hats for Diana , Princess of Wales and for Comme des Gar ? ons at the same time , " Stephen explains . " Not the same hat , but the same enclosed space that a beret is . You know , it 's not a hat with a brim . It can be changed and squashed . But doing something for Comme des Gar ? ons , I remember sketching it and thinking , ' Well , it needs to be a beret , but off-kilter , because that is what she Kawakubo seems to be doing . She is doing a jumper with two sleeves on it -- but it 's got holes in it . ' " The milliner 's work for Comme has been what he describes as " on and off " -- " always different projects , sometimes the show , or Dover Street Market , or the Comme des Gar ? ons perfumes , or Shirt ( one of Kawakubo 's other labels ) . " " I was always completely @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he asked Adrian Joffe ( Kawakubo 's husband and Comme 's CEO ) why , of all the different people in the world , she wanted to work with him . " And Adrian said , ' Because sometimes -- not always -- she wants an English gentleman to create hats for her . ' That 's her perception of me , " Stephen says . " I remember , around this time , her assistant said that she would like to send me a present as a thank-you for working on the collections ( and we did work very hard ) . I was intrigued to see what it was , whether it would be a sweater with holes in it or something else . And actually it was some peach pyjamas ! I 've still got the top . I do n't know what happened to the bottoms . I hope they 're not landfill ! But this was a very long time ago . " I ask Stephen which of the many Comme shows he had dressed with his hats had brought him fashion emotion . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and this particular hat , because it was really the beginning of something completely new , " he says . " You remember how the French were absolutely terrified of and hated Comme des Gar ? ons ? It was extraordinary , and I was so happy to be part of that -- the outsider being let into Paris . I 'd been a punk growing up , and I 'd thought that Vivienne Westwood was the only contemporary designer whom I really wanted to watch . I knew about the world of Dior , because in the library at Saint Martin 's were all these old Vogues with these extraordinary images in them . But mid-1970s fashion was very different . It was Kenzo and Calvin Klein and beige and knitwear ! Vivienne came along . But then came Rei Kawakubo , and she had just such a completely different aesthetic . So , for me , this first season was extraordinary . " A fiery flash of orange and yellow , veiling both face and neck : a dramatic head cover that celebrates the transitory @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1980s but burnt out too soon . Explaining how they had come to work together , Stephen says : " I 'd been working in France and I was told that Claude Montana would love to work with me -- but the crazy thing was that I was so busy with Gaultier , I actually turned Montana down for quite a few seasons . I was quite aware that he was a major designer , but whereas Gaultier was a major designer and fun , there 's something very serious about Claude . I knew that whatever I made would need to be made perfectly . So eventually I agreed , and we did wonderful things together . This hat was worn by Yasmin Le Bon when she was just starting modelling and absolutely gorgeous . " I always think of Montana as a designer of geometric precision and wonder how that worked with Stephen 's often decorative , funky and witty approach . " He was really a tailor , as opposed to a dressmaker , " he remembers , " but I was n't working with him @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was doing huge , huge , huge shoulders in leather and all that . I was working with him when , in a way , he 'd refined that , and he was doing beautiful coats in draped cashmere or a bubble skirt , but one that was perfectly cut . That 's why he did Lanvin as well , " Stephen says ( referring to Montana 's work on the brand that was later taken over by Alber Elbaz ) , explaining that working for an existing house was the only way young designers could afford to have the workmanship they craved . " Everybody talks about Crist ? bal Balenciaga spending a month on a sleeve ; well , Claude actually did spend a month doing a collar , " Stephen says . " However , unfortunately , his aesthetic did n't really move with the times . " BySuzy Menkes The multicoloured Mohican hat that Stephen designed for Dior was the ultimate expression of John Galliano 's mad and magical world @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " I think of it as a Peruvian Mohican , " Stephen explains . " John had mentioned doing some kind of Peruvian hat , because he had always loved them . Funnily enough , my sister had just been to Peru and had one made for me in grey and black . Apparently , when she ordered in those colours , they thought she was mad , because what they love is colour . She gave it to me as a birthday present . I showed John , and then I was sitting in my hotel room and my pencil wandered over the page -- and it became a Mohican . " " The construction is quite complicated , because of course wool does not stand up like a Mohican , " he explains , " so it 's got quite a complicated internal system of wires , padding and construction to keep it standing up properly . I always thought of John . When we were in Paris , we always felt like Londoners , and the Mohican was such a representation of punk London . It @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and loved . It was the idea of something exotic -- but joyous , too . I love the fact that it was knitted and quite homey , but at the same time in your face . " Both the quiet and the colourful Mohicans made it to the Dior runway . " The coloured one was going to be worn by Giselle , and I have a fitting photograph of her in it , " Stephen recalls , " but in the end , she wore the grey and beige one and her beauty was enough to carry it off . " " Sew and Sow " : A gardening cloche in hessian , string and paper from the Stephen Jones " Handmade in England " collection , Spring/Summer 2005 ' Sew and Sow ' : A gardening cloche in hessian , string and paper from the Stephen Jones ' Handmade in England ' collection , Spring/Summer 2005 . Cotton dress with utility pockets by J.W. Anderson . Styling by Mattias Karlsson Ben Toms What is this scarecrow @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? " Oh , those are old seed packets ! " Stephen announces . " After my rejection of Britain in favour of France , this was a return to England . There was a photograph of my parents and me in our local paper in Berkshire . It was taken at the local village fair and we 're looking at a plate of prize carrots and potatoes . I suddenly realised that wonderful Britishness of actress Kay Kendall and that sort of English eccentricity , and the whole gardening thing and Chatsworth . So this was a gardening hat , made out of potato sacking packets and bits of garden twine , all stitched together . " So is the master of millinery really a champion gardener ? " I do a bit -- I prune , " Stephen says . " I 'm quite a good pruner . " Despite its title , this graceful circular hat with an airy centre hardly seems to suggest an explosion . " Well , the hat was sort of exploded , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ slightly autobiographical , and for the first time ever I 'd been in hospital having an operation on my leg . " So this was about dissecting his body ? " You see , the brim was made out of X-rays , which were extremely difficult to get . I had to buy them from America because they are not allowed to be sold within the UK , because they are classified as doctors ' records and personal information . So I wanted to take a normal hat , like a boater , and explode it . " The result is a light-as-air concoction , an elegant hat with a decorative bow but with the X-ray material giving a transparent effect . " Charles James " : A down padded cap in silk satin from the Stephen Jones Haute Couture and Pr ? t- ? -Porter collections , Autumn/Winter 2017 Why Charles James ? I ask . Is the British-American fashion designer from the first half of the 20th century his hidden hero ? " When I was on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ came to London and I saw an exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum called ' Fashion , 1900 -- 1939 ' , " Stephen says . " In it , I saw the Charles James padded jacket , and that 's what made me think that I could do fashion at Saint Martin 's . I thought that jacket was one of the most beautiful things I had ever seen in my life . " Stephen had backstage access to the Charles James exhibition and marvelled at the construction of the work . " Padding and hats tend not to go together that well , but I always wanted to do something inspired by that , as a tribute -- because it is a wonderful thing . So I made this cap , completely padded , and it is one of the most wonderful , comfortable things you could imagine . And it 's from this winter . " Now he has reached his landmark birthday , how does he feel about carrying on as hat-maker extraordinaire ? " That 's the crazy thing about the fashion @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ collection , " Stephen says . " It is the greatest privilege to be able , each season , to make a new story and to write a new chapter . " And does he remember the first hat he made ? " I had to show it to the woman who was the head of the work room , " Stephen says , describing " an old blouse of my sister 's glued onto a Cornflakes packet , with some plastic roses from my mother that I had sprayed silver " . " That really was my very first hat . And she allowed me into the millinery work room ! " The double wheel hat , with two circles balanced on the end of a paper ' boat ' , is an exaggerated version of various other abstract hats created by Stephen . " That was for Galliano in a collection that was very much inspired by Constructivist art : it was a bit like ' Hat Descending a Staircase ' , " the designer says . " It was sort of three hats morphed into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it has to be worn on the head ; it was so funny when the model picked it up and said , ' Good Heavens ! It 's really light ! " Stephen remembers . " When you work on something so far away from the head , you work technically on how it is going to stay on . It 's easy doing it stationary for a photo session , but when you have a model going down the catwalk , it 's got to be stable and balanced . So that Galliano hat was quite difficult to do , and that is why , in part , they are made from paper , because it makes them as light as anything . " Stephen stops to explain that the range of what he achieved in hats for haute couture no longer exists -- and that perhaps this is a good thing , now that he has turned 60 . " It 's absolutely a challenge and a wonderful thing to do , and I always have a great time doing it , " he admits . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ time in the world and completely terrifying -- and you never get used to that . I remember once hearing that Luciano Pavarotti was almost sick before he went on to perform , every time . Yet he was the greatest tenor in the world . It 's extraordinary to see that he felt that he could never do it again . " Stephen , I point out , might be proclaimed the Pavarotti of hats . BySuzy Menkes " This was very much a club hat . I always made smallish hats really , because people needed to wear them in nightclubs -- they were n't made for the runway , " Stephen explains . " For me , it was a real life that we 'd created . Growing up during New Romanticism and New Wave , if you could n't dance in it , there did n't seem to be much point . " The milliner recalls the process of creating " Pas de Deux " : " I was walking down St Martin 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they had miniature ballet shoes . I 'd just been looking at some photos of the Schiaparelli shoe hat , and for me that was my favourite hat of all time , and I thought , ' Ah ! I could do my own version . ' So that 's how this hat happened ; the fabrics came from Paris , while before it was vintage shops and old ribbon suppliers . " I ask who was the inspiration for this charming and feminine hat -- and who ultimately wore it . " This particular one was worn by the girl who was my muse , " Stephen says , saying that whether it 's for a designer or a private client , the process is always the same . " You 're wondering not how that person is , but how they want to be . But obviously a dress designer is thinking about multiples as opposed to just themselves . But for me , it is very close . Is it for me ? Is it for somebody else ? If I 'm doing something for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and about them -- that is the sort of relationship we have . But that 's not to say that it does n't influence me in general . I would n't really copy it , but I would think , ' Oh , that was a great idea ; maybe I need to use that . ' That 's how design works . " " I 've always thought you should be as open to as many influences as possible . So working with a private client is actually a great discipline , because you put something on somebody . Are they wrong ? Is the hat wrong ? It 's always a very good lesson , and in a funny way , if it 's too right for them , maybe it does n't make them dream . You need to take them a little bit out of their comfort zone . As Diana Vreeland said , you have to give people what they never knew they wanted . " " I 've always loved going to Brighton , and I spent a weekend there , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and all of the Georgian period , " Stephen says , explaining the origins of this graceful , curving hat . It grew out of researching George IV and the highly decorative royal summer palace he commissioned as Prince Regent , with its domes , towers and minarets . " I had always loved the chinoiserie thing when I was growing up , so the design of the hat is a conflation of a military bike horn with the lines and scrollwork of Rococo chinoiserie , " he says . " I fell in love with the Pavilion . I thought , ' What on earth conspired to make those extraordinary candelabras , the dragons , the paintings -- everything ? ' You know , you can actually go up into the roof between the outside and inside of the dome and see the graffiti that the workers made when they were building it . " " Myra " : A Mohican in plastic and yak fur , from the Stephen Jones " Poseur " collection , Autumn/Winter 2003 ' Myra ' : A Mohican in plastic and yak fur , from the Stephen Jones ' Poseur ' collection , Autumn/Winter 2003 . Styling by Mattias Karlsson Ben Toms " ' Myra ' is almost like a Mohican headdress made out of dolls ' legs and a doll 's face . This is a tribute to my friend Myra , whom I knew when I was 19 and 20 . It was just pre the Blitz club . She was a very good friend of Boy George , and she used to wear a beehive with a plastic doll 's face in the front . It was wonderful because everyone used to be so upset by it , and we thought it was hilarious . I mean , she could have run down the street naked and people would have been less upset ! " I ask whether Myra still wears his hats . " She used to be a client years ago , " Stephen says , " but people always hold on to their hats . They never throw them away @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hats have got too much memory and too much meaning . People do n't throw them away -- even though they get squashed beyond belief . " No ! This chic black velvet hat with a twirl of lipstick pink is not called " Rolls-Royce " -- although this sleek creation might seem to be made for the stately vehicle . " Rose Royce , a little top hat -- it 's just another favourite , " Stephen says . " It 's a little velvet top hat and the crown is made like a rose ; it 's just swirled round . Somehow , this has been my favourite hat I 've ever made . It 's pretty and feminine and sexy , and it is in fact extremely difficult to make -- but it looks effortless . " When I ask Stephen whether moving 15 years ahead , to the 1990s , with this hat is a sign of a change in his own aesthetic , he replies : " Funnily enough , it is parallel with the time I started to work in haute couture @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . And I think it was John Galliano 's year with Givenchy July 1995 to October1996 . Whereas I 'd always been racing to make a hat , somehow , with money from LVMH I was able to take things slightly slower and really work on techniques like this . They are actually techniques from the 1950s , which nobody in their right mind would use now because they take too long .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'grew out of' which is an intransitive verb followed by a prepositional phrase, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The NP 'researching George IV and the highly decorative royal summer palace he commissioned as Prince Regent, with its domes, towers and minarets' is not a causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate.

Stephen has in fact been working for Comme des Gar ? ons over more than three decades -- and it started with the elongated beret @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1985 , and it was strange because I was making hats for Diana , Princess of Wales and for Comme des Gar ? ons at the same time , " Stephen explains . " Not the same hat , but the same enclosed space that a beret is . You know , it 's not a hat with a brim . It can be changed and squashed . But doing something for Comme des Gar ? ons , I remember sketching it and thinking , ' Well , it needs to be a beret , but off-kilter , because that is what she Kawakubo seems to be doing . She is doing a jumper with two sleeves on it -- but it 's got holes in it . ' " The milliner 's work for Comme has been what he describes as " on and off " -- " always different projects , sometimes the show , or Dover Street Market , or the Comme des Gar ? ons perfumes , or Shirt ( one of Kawakubo 's other labels ) . " " I was always completely @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he asked Adrian Joffe ( Kawakubo 's husband and Comme 's CEO ) why , of all the different people in the world , she wanted to work with him . " And Adrian said , ' Because sometimes -- not always -- she wants an English gentleman to create hats for her . ' That 's her perception of me , " Stephen says . " I remember , around this time , her assistant said that she would like to send me a present as a thank-you for working on the collections ( and we did work very hard ) . I was intrigued to see what it was , whether it would be a sweater with holes in it or something else . And actually it was some peach pyjamas ! I 've still got the top . I do n't know what happened to the bottoms . I hope they 're not landfill ! But this was a very long time ago . " I ask Stephen which of the many Comme shows he had dressed with his hats had brought him fashion emotion . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and this particular hat , because it was really the beginning of something completely new , " he says . " You remember how the French were absolutely terrified of and hated Comme des Gar ? ons ? It was extraordinary , and I was so happy to be part of that -- the outsider being let into Paris . I 'd been a punk growing up , and I 'd thought that Vivienne Westwood was the only contemporary designer whom I really wanted to watch . I knew about the world of Dior , because in the library at Saint Martin 's were all these old Vogues with these extraordinary images in them . But mid-1970s fashion was very different . It was Kenzo and Calvin Klein and beige and knitwear ! Vivienne came along . But then came Rei Kawakubo , and she had just such a completely different aesthetic . So , for me , this first season was extraordinary . " A fiery flash of orange and yellow , veiling both face and neck : a dramatic head cover that celebrates the transitory @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1980s but burnt out too soon . Explaining how they had come to work together , Stephen says : " I 'd been working in France and I was told that Claude Montana would love to work with me -- but the crazy thing was that I was so busy with Gaultier , I actually turned Montana down for quite a few seasons . I was quite aware that he was a major designer , but whereas Gaultier was a major designer and fun , there 's something very serious about Claude . I knew that whatever I made would need to be made perfectly . So eventually I agreed , and we did wonderful things together . This hat was worn by Yasmin Le Bon when she was just starting modelling and absolutely gorgeous . " I always think of Montana as a designer of geometric precision and wonder how that worked with Stephen 's often decorative , funky and witty approach . " He was really a tailor , as opposed to a dressmaker , " he remembers , " but I was n't working with him @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was doing huge , huge , huge shoulders in leather and all that . I was working with him when , in a way , he 'd refined that , and he was doing beautiful coats in draped cashmere or a bubble skirt , but one that was perfectly cut . That 's why he did Lanvin as well , " Stephen says ( referring to Montana 's work on the brand that was later taken over by Alber Elbaz ) , explaining that working for an existing house was the only way young designers could afford to have the workmanship they craved . " Everybody talks about Crist ? bal Balenciaga spending a month on a sleeve ; well , Claude actually did spend a month doing a collar , " Stephen says . " However , unfortunately , his aesthetic did n't really move with the times . " BySuzy Menkes The multicoloured Mohican hat that Stephen designed for Dior was the ultimate expression of John Galliano 's mad and magical world @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " I think of it as a Peruvian Mohican , " Stephen explains . " John had mentioned doing some kind of Peruvian hat , because he had always loved them . Funnily enough , my sister had just been to Peru and had one made for me in grey and black . Apparently , when she ordered in those colours , they thought she was mad , because what they love is colour . She gave it to me as a birthday present . I showed John , and then I was sitting in my hotel room and my pencil wandered over the page -- and it became a Mohican . " " The construction is quite complicated , because of course wool does not stand up like a Mohican , " he explains , " so it 's got quite a complicated internal system of wires , padding and construction to keep it standing up properly . I always thought of John . When we were in Paris , we always felt like Londoners , and the Mohican was such a representation of punk London . It @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and loved . It was the idea of something exotic -- but joyous , too . I love the fact that it was knitted and quite homey , but at the same time in your face . " Both the quiet and the colourful Mohicans made it to the Dior runway . " The coloured one was going to be worn by Giselle , and I have a fitting photograph of her in it , " Stephen recalls , " but in the end , she wore the grey and beige one and her beauty was enough to carry it off . " " Sew and Sow " : A gardening cloche in hessian , string and paper from the Stephen Jones " Handmade in England " collection , Spring/Summer 2005 ' Sew and Sow ' : A gardening cloche in hessian , string and paper from the Stephen Jones ' Handmade in England ' collection , Spring/Summer 2005 . Cotton dress with utility pockets by J.W. Anderson . Styling by Mattias Karlsson Ben Toms What is this scarecrow @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? " Oh , those are old seed packets ! " Stephen announces . " After my rejection of Britain in favour of France , this was a return to England . There was a photograph of my parents and me in our local paper in Berkshire . It was taken at the local village fair and we 're looking at a plate of prize carrots and potatoes . I suddenly realised that wonderful Britishness of actress Kay Kendall and that sort of English eccentricity , and the whole gardening thing and Chatsworth . So this was a gardening hat , made out of potato sacking packets and bits of garden twine , all stitched together . " So is the master of millinery really a champion gardener ? " I do a bit -- I prune , " Stephen says . " I 'm quite a good pruner . " Despite its title , this graceful circular hat with an airy centre hardly seems to suggest an explosion . " Well , the hat was sort of exploded , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ slightly autobiographical , and for the first time ever I 'd been in hospital having an operation on my leg . " So this was about dissecting his body ? " You see , the brim was made out of X-rays , which were extremely difficult to get . I had to buy them from America because they are not allowed to be sold within the UK , because they are classified as doctors ' records and personal information . So I wanted to take a normal hat , like a boater , and explode it . " The result is a light-as-air concoction , an elegant hat with a decorative bow but with the X-ray material giving a transparent effect . " Charles James " : A down padded cap in silk satin from the Stephen Jones Haute Couture and Pr ? t- ? -Porter collections , Autumn/Winter 2017 Why Charles James ? I ask . Is the British-American fashion designer from the first half of the 20th century his hidden hero ? " When I was on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ came to London and I saw an exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum called ' Fashion , 1900 -- 1939 ' , " Stephen says . " In it , I saw the Charles James padded jacket , and that 's what made me think that I could do fashion at Saint Martin 's . I thought that jacket was one of the most beautiful things I had ever seen in my life . " Stephen had backstage access to the Charles James exhibition and marvelled at the construction of the work . " Padding and hats tend not to go together that well , but I always wanted to do something inspired by that , as a tribute -- because it is a wonderful thing . So I made this cap , completely padded , and it is one of the most wonderful , comfortable things you could imagine . And it 's from this winter . " Now he has reached his landmark birthday , how does he feel about carrying on as hat-maker extraordinaire ? " That 's the crazy thing about the fashion @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ collection , " Stephen says . " It is the greatest privilege to be able , each season , to make a new story and to write a new chapter . " And does he remember the first hat he made ? " I had to show it to the woman who was the head of the work room , " Stephen says , describing " an old blouse of my sister 's glued onto a Cornflakes packet , with some plastic roses from my mother that I had sprayed silver " . " That really was my very first hat . And she allowed me into the millinery work room ! " The double wheel hat , with two circles balanced on the end of a paper ' boat ' , is an exaggerated version of various other abstract hats created by Stephen . " That was for Galliano in a collection that was very much inspired by Constructivist art : it was a bit like ' Hat Descending a Staircase ' , " the designer says . " It was sort of three hats morphed into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it has to be worn on the head ; it was so funny when the model picked it up and said , ' Good Heavens ! It 's really light ! " Stephen remembers . " When you work on something so far away from the head , you work technically on how it is going to stay on . It 's easy doing it stationary for a photo session , but when you have a model going down the catwalk , it 's got to be stable and balanced . So that Galliano hat was quite difficult to do , and that is why , in part , they are made from paper , because it makes them as light as anything . " Stephen stops to explain that the range of what he achieved in hats for haute couture no longer exists -- and that perhaps this is a good thing , now that he has turned 60 . " It 's absolutely a challenge and a wonderful thing to do , and I always have a great time doing it , " he admits . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ time in the world and completely terrifying -- and you never get used to that . I remember once hearing that Luciano Pavarotti was almost sick before he went on to perform , every time . Yet he was the greatest tenor in the world . It 's extraordinary to see that he felt that he could never do it again . " Stephen , I point out , might be proclaimed the Pavarotti of hats . BySuzy Menkes " This was very much a club hat . I always made smallish hats really , because people needed to wear them in nightclubs -- they were n't made for the runway , " Stephen explains . " For me , it was a real life that we 'd created . Growing up during New Romanticism and New Wave , if you could n't dance in it , there did n't seem to be much point . " The milliner recalls the process of creating " Pas de Deux " : " I was walking down St Martin 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they had miniature ballet shoes . I 'd just been looking at some photos of the Schiaparelli shoe hat , and for me that was my favourite hat of all time , and I thought , ' Ah ! I could do my own version . ' So that 's how this hat happened ; the fabrics came from Paris , while before it was vintage shops and old ribbon suppliers . " I ask who was the inspiration for this charming and feminine hat -- and who ultimately wore it . " This particular one was worn by the girl who was my muse , " Stephen says , saying that whether it 's for a designer or a private client , the process is always the same . " You 're wondering not how that person is , but how they want to be . But obviously a dress designer is thinking about multiples as opposed to just themselves . But for me , it is very close . Is it for me ? Is it for somebody else ? If I 'm doing something for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and about them -- that is the sort of relationship we have . But that 's not to say that it does n't influence me in general . I would n't really copy it , but I would think , ' Oh , that was a great idea ; maybe I need to use that . ' That 's how design works . " " I 've always thought you should be as open to as many influences as possible . So working with a private client is actually a great discipline , because you put something on somebody . Are they wrong ? Is the hat wrong ? It 's always a very good lesson , and in a funny way , if it 's too right for them , maybe it does n't make them dream . You need to take them a little bit out of their comfort zone . As Diana Vreeland said , you have to give people what they never knew they wanted . " " I 've always loved going to Brighton , and I spent a weekend there , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and all of the Georgian period , " Stephen says , explaining the origins of this graceful , curving hat . It grew out of researching George IV and the highly decorative royal summer palace he commissioned as Prince Regent , with its domes , towers and minarets . " I had always loved the chinoiserie thing when I was growing up , so the design of the hat is a conflation of a military bike horn with the lines and scrollwork of Rococo chinoiserie , " he says . " I fell in love with the Pavilion . I thought , ' What on earth conspired to make those extraordinary candelabras , the dragons , the paintings -- everything ? ' You know , you can actually go up into the roof between the outside and inside of the dome and see the graffiti that the workers made when they were building it . " " Myra " : A Mohican in plastic and yak fur , from the Stephen Jones " Poseur " collection , Autumn/Winter 2003 ' Myra ' : A Mohican in plastic and yak fur , from the Stephen Jones ' Poseur ' collection , Autumn/Winter 2003 . Styling by Mattias Karlsson Ben Toms " ' Myra ' is almost like a Mohican headdress made out of dolls ' legs and a doll 's face . This is a tribute to my friend Myra , whom I knew when I was 19 and 20 . It was just pre the Blitz club . She was a very good friend of Boy George , and she used to wear a beehive with a plastic doll 's face in the front . It was wonderful because everyone used to be so upset by it , and we thought it was hilarious . I mean , she could have run down the street naked and people would have been less upset ! " I ask whether Myra still wears his hats . " She used to be a client years ago , " Stephen says , " but people always hold on to their hats . They never throw them away @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hats have got too much memory and too much meaning . People do n't throw them away -- even though they get squashed beyond belief . " No ! This chic black velvet hat with a twirl of lipstick pink is not called " Rolls-Royce " -- although this sleek creation might seem to be made for the stately vehicle . " Rose Royce , a little top hat -- it 's just another favourite , " Stephen says . " It 's a little velvet top hat and the crown is made like a rose ; it 's just swirled round . Somehow , this has been my favourite hat I 've ever made . It 's pretty and feminine and sexy , and it is in fact extremely difficult to make -- but it looks effortless . " When I ask Stephen whether moving 15 years ahead , to the 1990s , with this hat is a sign of a change in his own aesthetic , he replies : " Funnily enough , it is parallel with the time I started to work in haute couture @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . And I think it was John Galliano 's year with Givenchy July 1995 to October1996 . Whereas I 'd always been racing to make a hat , somehow , with money from LVMH I was able to take things slightly slower and really work on techniques like this . They are actually techniques from the 1950s , which nobody in their right mind would use now because they take too long .

This article contains major plot spoilers for all episodes of both Life is Strange and Life is Strange : Before the Storm . The final shot of Life is Strange : Before the Storm is one of Chloe Price and Rachel Amber laughing together . Sat atop Chloe 's truck in the junkyard that she dubs her " home away from home , " the pair admiring their new tattoos , there is a feeling that they love and trust each other unconditionally . In many ways , Before the Storm might be one of the best love stories videogames have ever told , a shining example of how to build a relationship out of nothing , while maintaining an air of wondrous , desperate realism.Then the credits roll . Once they are finished , the grim reality underlying the entire Life is Strange saga comes thundering home . The game actually ends with a shot of Rachel 's phone . The screen reads , ' Chloe calling - 17 missed calls ' , and as the camera pans away , the unmistakable @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are . The game 's post-credits scene takes place in Nathan Prescott 's dark room , moments before he will accidentally kill Rachel , and then bury her body in the same junkyard we saw her celebrating in moments ago . This moment is referenced time and again , but at no time is the connection more keenly felt than in the Barn towards the climax of Before the Storm . In an attempt to delegitimise custody claims from Rachel 's estranged mother , a recovering drug addict , her father has the game 's major antagonist forcefully inject her with what seems to be heroin . The moment the syringe comes into shot , memories of the deeply troubling scenes that Max is subject to at the hands of Mark Jefferson come surging forth . In Life is Strange the syringe is a symbol of death , decay , and violation - a cancer eating away at society , and a weapon that will end Rachel 's life . The relationship that builds between Chloe and Rachel in Before the Storm is simply lovely . In one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dizzy with euphoria , seemingly drunk off one another . It is a beautiful moment and one of the highlights of the game . But what seems like a singularly wonderful moment between the two is underwritten by the fact that ( if you played the original Life Is Strange , at least ) we know one day , at least from Chloe 's perspective , Rachel will just disappear . The memories they build together and the plans they make will suddenly be abandoned . It is an idea that plays throughout the game . From the moment Chloe confesses to Rachel that their new relationship feels like more than just a friendship , to her demand that Rachel never leave her , you are constantly reminded that however wonderful Chloe and Rachel might be , their story will end with the former weeping over the body of her best friend . That moment , at the end of episode four of Life is Strange , lacks its full impact when you first experience it . Max only knows Rachel as the face on a missing persons @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ disappearance has been swept away in a tide of high school parties and teenage hormones . We , as the player , can barely understand Rachel 's place in the story - at that time , Max , not Rachel , is Chloe 's best friend , and we do n't meet any other characters who profess to have known her . Before the events of Before the Storm , Rachel is little more than a myth , but once you meet her the effect she has on the story is monumental . Therein lies the power of Before the Storm . While , technically , it is a spin-off series , it is a crucial part of the main story , as relationships and characters from Life is Strange are developed throughout . David Madsen goes from pantomime villain to someone unable to reconcile the effort he puts into building bridges with his step-daughter with the hatred he gets in return . Frank Bowers ' confusing relationship with Chloe makes more sense as you realise the sacrifices he makes in his own life to look out for her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ single outlet for his emotions without suffering abuse at the hands of his classmates , becomes a somewhat sympathetic character in Before the Storm . While it is not enough to let me forgive Nathan for what he does to Rachel , the prequel shows the angry , twisted man we see in Life is Strange was formed by a peer group who refused to judge him separately from his emotionally abusive father . Similarly , watching that junkyard scene play out after you have seen Chloe and Rachel together gives it an entirely new meaning . Before the Storm lets you understand Rachel through the eyes of someone who loved her more than she loves anyone else . After the prequel brings her to life , and you experience Rachel as more than a mysterious face on a poster - as her own fantastic , loving , character - Before the Storm 's most beautiful scenes , like that final shot in the junkyard , take on a whole new , heartbreaking meaning . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses the phrase 'get such a kick out of recreating them with Augie', where 'recreating' is part of a gerund phrase that serves as the object of the preposition 'out of'. There is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

When you have a sibling , you 're super proud of their success ... but that wo n't stop you from mercilessly making fun of them . Take model Aristotle Polites . He 's a successful model and his older sister , Katina Behm , loves to see him doing big things . She celebrates his success as all sisters would -- taking the p*ss . Katina gets her son , Augie , to recreate his uncle Aristotle 's best model poses , capturing each side by side shot for her Instagram , babyandthebody -- which has already racked up more than 57,000 followers . Thankfully , Aristotle is n't upset by the comparisons . He runs the Instagram account with Katina , where he 'll happily ask who wore it better . The copycat trend all began when Katina could n't get Augie into his shirt .

' I took a picture and then realized I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on his Instagram page which is filled with modeling photos . ' ( Picture : babyandthebody/Instagram ) Katina found a similar photo of her brother , put the two images side by side , and sent them around to her family .

' I 'm so proud of him because he 's out there doing his thing and following his passion , but it 's hard not to rip on him a little bit , ' says Katina .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object between the verb 'get' and 'out of presenting live'. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the construction. The phrase 'out of presenting live' functions more as a description of the source of the 'buzz' rather than indicating causation or prevention.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'opt out of having their content crawled and displayed on search results' involves an NP ('their content crawled and displayed on search results') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', but it does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate that would fit the construction's requirements. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

We made it ! After months of re-wiring , thousands of pounds of recycled electronics , and who knows how many pounds of drywall dust , our smart home renovation project is complete . We started with a non-existent network , aging home theater components , a crumbling distributed audio system , and more than just a few technical hurdles . Now , we end with a completely retrofitted smart home worthy of being called state-of-the-art . As smart as Amazon 's Alexa may be , the digital assistant is not capable of making simple work out of coordinating a dozen or more disparate smart home devices -- that 's where Control4 comes in . With Control4 acting as the conductor of our smart home symphony , a simple voice command to Alexa through an Echo device is transformed into specific instructions to multiple devices , all executed in concert . If you could see inside the Control4 center 's brain , it would look like a frenzy of arm waving , lever pulling and button pressing . Yet , thanks @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ -- and simply at that . In this fourth video of our Connect my Crib series , you 'll see this integration at work . By speaking the words , " Alexa , turn on home , " a series of lights turn on , the thermostat automatically adjusts , and quiet music begins playing from a previously specified Spotify playlist . Conversely , " Alexa , turn off home , " sets in motion the shutting down of the home , be it for the duration of a short trip to the store , or a night of sleep . We can also tell Alexa to put the home in vacation mode , which turns off all but a certain set of lights , which are strategically chosen to make it seem as if the home is occupied . The Alexa control extends to every room in the house through carefully hidden Echo Dot speakers , so that Alexa can hear us no matter where we are . Voice commands can start music from any number of streaming services or local music sources , and play them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ level desired . And because of Control4 's switching matrix , different sources and songs can be played in different rooms all at the same time . In the end , the result was well worth the effort and the time invested . We now have a great test bed for new smart home devices and a chance to work with Alexa 's growing list of skills . You 'll be seeing our new smart home featured in many articles and videos to come . |

The sentence 'Commuters are being priced out of going to work' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('Commuters') + V1 ('are being priced') + NP object (implied 'them') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('going to work'). It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, where the action of pricing prevents commuters from going to work. The verb 'priced' can be classified under 'By means of exerting force or pressure, sometimes understood metaphorically'. The NP subject 'Commuters' is an animate agent, and the construction is used in passive voice, which is acceptable for this construction. The NP object (implied 'them') functions as a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'going to work'.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'get' is transitive and selects an NP object 'a buzz', but it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, 'hairdressing' is not a VP[-ing] predicate but rather a noun in this context.

Yet she was not to know her styling of Keegan 's hair would be responsible for thousands of men nationwide summoning up the courage to step into salons and subject themselves to the ordeal of curlers and perm lotion . " I used to go to his house near Romsey because he was so famous . The salon would have been swamped if he 'd have come in , " recalls Angela who , having built up her own successful business , returned to Trevor Mitchell in 1988 as a director and partner . Her career began as a 16-year-old , although her passion for hairdressing existed long before that , and came at the expense of some of her treasured toys , which made the ultimate sacrifice . Angela says : " I can remember when I was seven years old , I used to cut all of my dolls ' hair , including a Tressy doll , which had a button on the back which let you alter the length of her hair .

After serving her three-year apprenticeship she was talent-spotted by renowned Southampton stylist Trevor Mitchell . Angela joined his salon in July 1980 and spent an initial six years there , before starting up her own business in Bedford Place . During her first spell with Trevor Mitchell , Angela coiffed numerous famous heads , but none more so than Keegan who during the early 1980s was famed as much for his bubble perm as for the footballing abilities which saw him crowned European Footballer of the Year before he became subject of the transfer of the century when he joined Southampton in 1980 .

" Lesley Joseph , Niall McNamee , Dave Armstrong , Joe Jordan , Alan Shearer , and the cricketers as well because Trevor Mitchell was so involved in the sports scene ' she stays . " We would do a lot of colours , perms , creations and whatever else they wanted -- and whatever their wives wanted too .

" Trevor Mitchell is famous for competitions , so I 've always done lots @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ avant-garde it is really very different to commercial hairdressing . " I 've been to the national hairdresser 's federation every single year of my career , all 40 of them and have travelled all round the country doing competitions . " Angela has seen some changes to hairdressing over the decades . " I would be asked to do far more challenging haircuts that were in fashion at the time so there was a real sense of exhilaration in getting it right , " she recalls . " People would follow the stars more and ask for more popular haircuts such as Princess Diana 's . " But naturally Angela has also had to deal with her fair share of tears from upset customers . " Years ago , you could buy 60 volume peroxide before they banned it , " she says . " It was the strongest peroxide going and if you put it on you would often see someone 's hair steaming away ... there were tears . It was the shock of it more than anything . " So @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ suppose until I physically ca n't anymore . I still get a buzz out of hairdressing , " she says . " I average out about seven or eight appointments a day .

" She will celebrate her 40th anniversary by taking her colleagues out to Shrimp and Burger across the road in Bedford Place . " Bedford Place has changed beyond anything now , " she says . " I 've been working here for 31 years and it 's so different round here . It 's all geared up for students now , there used to be some lovely shops around here . " A lot of our clients are very loyal Trevor Mitchell clients . I 've got a lady that I 've done for 37 years and she 's still coming to me .

It 's good because sometimes she does things that I would usually try but I know it 's not going to be outrageous , so you do feel very confident and very much at home .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'people' is the NP object and 'getting to work' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, as the high prices are preventing people from getting to work. The verb 'priced' can be classified under 'By means of exerting force or pressure', fitting one of the categories of verbs that appear in the V1 slot of the construction. The NP object 'people' functions as a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'getting to work'. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves an intransitive verb 'grown' with no NP object and the phrase 'out of mining aggregate information' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the origin or basis of a business, which is unrelated to the transitive out of -ing construction.

We have always kept data about ourselves , from household accounts to lovingly kept records of our baby 's height and weight . But when data like this is stored centrally it can be used to benefit lots of other people , too . This is the basis , for example , of the enormous business that has grown out of mining aggregate information for use by advertisers . Customers enjoy free services such as social media , webmail and photo storage and the providers get unlimited access to customer data , allowing them to earn money from recommendations and adverts , and conduct research based on users ' interests . But this sharing of data comes at the cost of privacy . And it has been hard to find a balance between anonymising data so that it protects individuals ' confidentiality and maintaining its usefulness . We know from experience that anonymising data by simply removing identifiers such as names and dates of birth ( so-called primary keys ) and replacing them with pseudo-anonymous random numbers does n't work . There are too many diverse holders of records to prevent re-identification , by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is . Adding noise to the data can help , but it can reduce its usefulness . In 2018 , we will see the emergence of several solutions to this conundrum . Firstly , we will find a way to identify the balance between what we want to achieve in terms of privacy and what 's useful to those mining the data . This is the idea behind Microsoft 's proposal for " differential privacy " , which involves putting an " envelope " around data , and only allowing access to what is revealed by inputting specific search queries . You could , for example , find out how many people in a dataset live in a certain postcode , but without getting access to the identities of the individuals who do so . Differential privacy works by filtering data , fuzzing certain features of it , or analysing and blocking intrusive queries . Given that most market-research-style analytics are concerned with identifying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ its usefulness . It does n't , however , determine how to target advertising to individuals , nor does it remove the risk of re-identification . One promising technique is homomorphic encryption . This involves a lot of computation , but allows an outsider to ask an encrypted question , on encrypted data , producing an encrypted result , which gives them the data they need and nothing more . The maths behind this is sound , but , to date , practical software to achieve it is still thousands or even millions of times slower than the plain-text approach . More encouraging is the idea to protect data by just leaving it where it is . Instead of moving it to a single place where it might be leaked , this " edge cloud " approach leaves data in people 's devices and distributes the programmes that do the analytics . This moves the results to businesses that wish to use them , but without ever moving the raw personal data . And , since there would be no central data or cloud storage , there'sno @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Advertisement Change will come not from technology , but the law . The General Data Protection Regulation , being introduced in May 2018 , will make " intentionally or recklessly re-identifying individuals from anonymised or pseudonymised data " an offence . Those who knowingly handle or process such data will also be committing a crime . By creating a business relationship between each individual and the company that uses their data , the incentives for privacy will be aligned . Companies will have even more reason to safeguard it .

Political storms , like meteorological ones , have come and gone for years but we always seem to think the current one is the worst , writes Bill Jamieson . Storm Eleanor be blowed ! For the fifth time this winter , my morning duties have involved chasing round the garden for far-flung dustbin lids and the scattered detritus of the recycling bins . There 's been the overturned plant pots to put right and the bent , wind-battered spinnacles to straighten . Paltry damage you may scoff . But then there 's the nightly torture of the noise . The wind gets in under the slates , rattles them against each other and then bangs them down before the next assault . And all the time the wind is screaming and howling through nearby pine trees : surely only a matter of time before one of them splinters and is brought crashing down onto our beds . Our weather was never like this . This is freak . This is different . This is new . I ransacked my memory @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ How fitting , how spookily appropriate , we have weather to match our national fortunes . Have we not endured a year of raging rows , extreme event alerts , awesome Brexit cliff-hangers and a tottering Westminster administration at risk of being uprooted and the Government brought crashing down about our ears ? Does not Laura Kuenssberg warn us nightly on the BBC of some new enveloping crisis , a fresh storm that threatens to blow the Prime Minister out of Downing Street ? Almost every night there 's a new scare . Barely a day passes without some new dark premonition of our fate . And seldom in UK politics has so much seemed in such constant peril and so little looking secure . But is this all so strange or unique ? When was the last time we enjoyed a calm and uneventful winter ? What tricks are played on the mind through the dark and stormy nights of our national imagination . For there has rarely been such a thing as a winter without weather -- or a political era unfolding without extreme event @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ so far this year has included an account of the traumas of the Irish home rule bills of the 1880s and 1890s that threatened to bring down the government at every turn -- all uncannily similar to the parliamentary troubles over Brexit . And if the extremities of " catastrophe " and " disaster " -- words deployed almost daily to describe what lies in store with Brexit -- how did we cope with the debacle of the Norway campaign in May 1940 , the feeble performances of Neville Chamberlain and the unlikely rise to the premiership of the minister most responsible for the military shambles at Narvik , the First Lord of the Admiralty , Winston Churchill ? Nicholas Shakespeare 's Six Minutes in May provides a compelling account of the debacle and its stormy aftermath , compared to which the current ' Brexit crisis ' seems uncannily tame . These are extraordinary circumstances , you may think , freak episodes in an otherwise placid evolution of our representative democracy . An absolutely fair summation -- once we set aside the First World War , the 1926 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Great Depression , the National government , the abdication crisis , the second world war , the Suez debacle , the fall of Anthony Eden , the Profumo scandal , the 1973-74 three-day week , the 1979 Winter of Discontent , the Falklands war , the 1980-81 recession , the downfall of Margaret Thatcher , the Iraq war , the banking crisis , the debt-and-deficit crisis , the London bombings , the Scottish independence referendum , the EU referendum vote , the resignation of David Cameron and the hung parliament of 2017 : all minor blips , exceptions to the rule , storms in teacups ? The fact is that our history , like the weather , is prone to extreme events . There is no uneventful winter , just as there is no politics without storms . Our political history may be said to have largely proceeded from the recovery from one crisis to the onset of the next . Indeed , it is by these events that our national chapters and eras are defined . It is certainly true that the process of withdrawal from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whose complexities were under-estimated . Totally different though the long and bitter process of Irish independence was , it is difficult not to be struck by the parliamentary parallels . Governments rose and foundered on this issue . William Gladstone 's First Home Rule Bill in 1886 appeared to offer an amicable solution amid growing bitterness and division but was defeated after a split in the Liberal Party . The Second Home Rule , introduced in 1893 , also offered a route out of the impasse , but was defeated in the House of Lords . The Third Home Rule Bill of 1912 was enacted in 1914 -- and suspended with the onset of the First World War . Then came the Easter Rising , and the fourth Home Rule Bill of 1921 . Deep divisions persisted for decades . It is an unsettling antitode to the view that our parliamentary system of government always works as a healing balm on our divisions . And few such divisions have proved more intractable than those over identity and sovereignty -- the hard , irreducible core at the heart of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ acclaimed for bringing the country together -- no Prime Minister has so united the country before or since . But that is not at all how it appeared in the febrile days of May 1940 when few in the Chamberlain administration or in the Armed Forces had a kind word to say about him . His emergence as war leader was arguably the most unlikely outcome . In early 1940 , Britain embarked on woefully ill-prepared expeditions to secure the port of Narvik to halt the export of Swedish iron ore to Germany and to prevent Norway 's occupation . Churchill overrode military opinion , bullied members of the War Cabinet into a hasty , ad hoc operation that ceded the strategic advantage to the Germans and led to Chamberlain 's resignation . General Sir William Ironside , chief of the Imperial General Staff , described him as a desperate man who seemed to be more of a liability than an asset , a view that other British commanders came to embrace amid Churchill 's constant changes of mind . Said Ironside at the time : " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ military arrangements as if he were a company commander running a small operation to cross a bridge . " In the subsequent stormy debate in the Commons , blame was diverted from Churchill and pointed at Chamberlain . " So a debate on the mismanagement of the Norwegian campaign , " wrote the historian Gordon Corrigan , " brought to power the man who had been mostly responsible for that mismanagement . " But it was the storm that brought forth the man . And such extremes are part and parcel of our condition . Let 's look on our storms as a natural given -- the political as well as the weather . Storm Eleanor has indeed been severe . Terrible . Ferocious . Scary . Why , it 's been definitely the worst storm since , hmm ... last year ? |

" I felt really angry and saddened by the couple 's views , " Jones told HuffPost UK . " So I contacted ' This Morning ' and went on the next day . " When I came out of doing that , the support from people in the same situation as me was overwhelming . " MiennaJones Mienna Jones with her son , Dexter . Jones ' seven-year-old son , Dexter , was assigned female at birth and his mum initially called him Talia . He first started objecting to clothes and toys traditionally thought to be " for girls " at two years old . When he was four , he told his mum : " Mummy , I feel a boy " . At five , he transitioned socially with a new name and his mum said he now " seems so much happier " . Jones said previously she had never had an urge to speak out about being the parent of a transgender child , but she realised if no one else was going to create awareness of the subject , she would have to do it . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there was surrounding the topic of transgender children , " she said . " I thought I needed to speak out , be my son 's voice . That was my ethos and the premise of me setting up this group . " Jones wrote on her local mums ' Facebook group about how she felt and received a lot of comments from other parents of transgender children in her town alone . Despite there being Mermaids , a charity helping transgender children and young people , Jones felt there was n't as much support for younger children . She wanted to meet with the other families to show her son that he is not alone and also learn from other people 's journeys herself . MiennaJones Dexter was assigned female at birth and socially transitioned at five years old . Jones set up ' Acceptance ' , a Facebook group originally made up of parents of transgender kids in her area , but this has since expanded to include people all over the UK . The group 's aim is to share stories with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Members also share articles others may find of interest . Jones wanted to give other parents of transgender children a lifeline and " a hub of positivity and support " . She allows anyone to call her if they want to talk or be listened to , no matter what time of day or night . The first ' Acceptance ' meet-up was at the end of 2017 . Jones rented out a church hall in London and set up a coffee morning with cakes , coffee , craft activities , games and toys . There were transgender children and teenagers there as well as a few people in their 20s , who came along with their parents . " It was n't information-based , it was just low-key chat , " Jones said . " It was just like meeting up with friends and naturally we ended up talking about our children 's journeys . The children got on and it was lovely to see . " As a parent , you want to know that you 're helping your child . Parents need @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ process myself with my son . " When we were referred to Tavistock Gender Identity Clinic , I felt like I was in limbo . People were n't willing to give you information and facts and figures and experiences . " You do n't get the opportunity to meet other parents and ask questions , but with these meet-ups , it will make that possible . " MiennaJones Dexter Jones . Jones said the original meet-up was overwhelmingly positive for her son Dexter . He felt comfortable around the other children and it showed him he 's not alone in his experience . The mum also met a family who she really got on with , as did Dexter . They ended up seeing them again at Christmas time . " Dexter loved it , " she said . " My son made a real friend . It was really nice for him to see that there are teenagers that are transgender and they are fine and comfortable and cool with themselves . " It has been a huge help for him . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ son Jay is transgender , is part of the Facebook group .

With a new single coming out in a completely different pop landscape , can he repeat the trick ? " I suppose it 's more difficult to engineer a No 1 , " he admits of a chart that now counts mostly in streams rather than downloads . " You need to have more pop cultural relevance , in the sense that it 's not just your music that makes you big . It 's a lot of social media , a lot of viral things , influencers . It 's not just the song , it 's who else is listening to the song . " The new single , Row the Body , features US rapper French Montana , as does almost every song within a 10-mile radius right now . It 's a slinkier beast than Cruz 's past work , with a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of flute . Its subject matter is nothing more complex than wanting to dance up close with a girl . It first appeared on streaming services in November and has n't yet hit the top 40 , but has had around five million Spotify streams . Is that enough for him ? " It 's more about cultural impact now rather than necessarily charting in the way that it happened before , " he says . " But whenever I write anything I want it to be the best , and the best is No 1 . " When the 32-year-old first started making hits -- winning a Best Single Brit Award for co-writing Will Young 's Your Game in 2005 , and first entering the charts himself a year later with a smooth ballad , I Just Wan na Know -- his biggest problem was his songs being unavailable to buy until about six weeks after they were first played on the radio and the loss of sales in the meantime to illegal downloads . Today it 's about being heard at all amid the cacophony @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out your music when everything is already coming at them in a deluge . He 's put a lot more energy than most into finding an effective way to operate in this new world , however . That 's where he has been for the past few years : developing his own app . It 's called Kewe ( pronounced like the fruit ) because , as he puts it : " It 's the key to the we . Right now you can share your life on Instagram and Snapchat and your music on Spotify and Soundcloud , but there is no one place you can share both . " I want one app where I can post what I 'm doing every day and have people follow me for evolving content , and then I can drop a single and monetise it straight away . " I suspect he may have invented MySpace but I join anyway . The smart-looking app automatically follows Cruz for you , which gives him close to 30,000 followers -- rather fewer than his 10 million Facebook fans and 2.2 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ started pushing it to his fellow musicians yet so there 's lots of room for growth . Despite being the face of it , he 's not a natural for all the extra me-me-me stuff of social pop stardom . " I 'm not that narcissistic . I do n't like filming myself . I 've had people tell me that I need to start doing it because that 's what people do , but I do n't have a natural inclination to do it , " he tells me . " I like the creative aspects , really . Starting from scratch , making something out of nothing . I 've never been a spotlight kind of person . " I ask what he 'd put down as his job description nowadays . " CEO , I suppose , " he replies . " I have a bunch of employees . I guess the corporate side of things is intriguing to me . It 's cool and interesting because it 's about trying to be a good boss , trying to inspire your team and make everyone @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the decade he was also selling sunglasses under the Rokstarr brand and watches as RXTR but that 's on the back burner now . I ask if the watch on his wrist is one of his . " No , it 's a Rolex ! " So Kewe is n't his first step into a multi-strand career ? " It 's difficult for people to understand that when you 're successful at something , you want to do something other than what you 're successful at , " he says . " Not that I do n't enjoy making music and writing songs . I actually do love that . But it 's the challenge of learning something new . " Pretty shy for a pop star , keeping his coat and scarf on in his record company offices , quiet and well spoken thanks to a boarding-school education at Christ 's Hospital in West Sussex , it does sound like he 'd rather be on a swivel chair behind a big desk than centre stage . But he 's written some great new songs , he says @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more singles and an album , which will be his fourth , on the way . The writing is the part he enjoys most . He 's got a natural ear for mass appeal , which is why he does n't care if his biggest hits already sound a bit dated . " I like to make music that is of the moment . To me they are classic 2010 records . " He thinks Afrobeat-influenced sounds are going to dominate for another year or so but is already tired of American trap music . He likens writing a good pop song to being a minimal designer . " It 's knowing everything so that you know what to leave out . You filter it down to appeal to the greatest number of people . " He has said before that a catchy melody in a song is like a good-looking person : you 're attracted to the tune before you care about the lyrics or personality . " People will go around humming a song but they do n't know the words . They 're drawn @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's putting that expertise to use again , and more hits are surely on the way . Pop 's CEO is back in business . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'made money out of forcing her to have sex with strangers' involves the verb 'made' with 'money' as its object, followed by 'out of' and a gerund phrase. However, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction. Instead, it describes a means of profiting from an action, which does not match the construction's semantic requirements.

" Regardless of this though , I would still stress how important it is to share your wishes with your loved ones . " Sally Johnson , director of Organ Donation and Transplantation for NHS Blood and Transplant , says : " We welcome the Government 's commitment to the lifesaving power of organ donation , which is demonstrated by the desire to hold a consultation into an opt out system . " We support any initiative which leads to more organ donors and more lives being shared . " We hope @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the consultation brings . Whatever the consultation decides , make sure your family know what you want .

Absurdist takes on the office environment are as old as the office itself . From Herman Melville 's Bartleby via David Brent to the award-winning theatre show Paperweight , there 's a noble tradition of artists sending up the ritualistic drudgery of -- well , almost everyone else 's working life . Now , New Zealand physical comics Trygve Wakenshaw and Barnie Duncan bring us their contribution to the genre , an hour of slapstick bureaucracy that has little new to say about office life , but says it with great expressivity and a heightened sense of the ridiculous . Presented as part of the London international mime festival , it begins as it means to go on , with Wakenshaw ( gangly , too big for his suit ) and Duncan ( stubby , too little for his ) making as if their briefcases are frisky dogs . It 's artfully done and -- like the later routines in which the cases float , or refuse to move -- it might have been performed at any time since the salad days of music hall . Fuelling the old-school vibe , Wakenshaw and Duncan 's office is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are taken by phone , paper billows out of filing cabinets and there are no computers in sight . Its angle on office anthropology is just as trad . Jargon ( " run it up the flagpole " , " touch base " , etc ) is lampooned . Much is made of tea drinking , which defuses discord and punctuates the day . But the duo are more concerned with comedy than social commentary , following their noses , rather than plot or satirical point , towards the next gag about a man who ca n't fold paper ( a highlight ) or a mime routine about a malfunctioning handshake . The latter is preposterously accomplished , as Wakenshaw and Duncan flap their mitts against one another then transform their digits into kissing birds , toying with our impatience to see them complete this most basic of formalities . In the end , the show has little to add to the orthodoxy that office life is a foolscap prison with its own self-fulfilling , essentially meaningless rituals . Sometimes it dissolves into generic physical comedy , as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It 's got no dramatic shape , and several threads -- such as the vegetarian 's perspective on the leather industry ( Wakenshaw is vegan ) -- are left dangling . But those feel like minor quibbles given the performers ' well-pitched gormlessness , loose-limbed flair and the redoubtable funniness of watching a man taking unexpected whacks to the head from a wall clock . |

Life is too short to remain static , and the Labour Party is today too great , and too dynamic , not to engage with the full force of the membership . Remember , the labour movement 's raison d'etre is putting power back in the hands of ordinary people . That 's why I 've spoken out on issues ranging from the struggle of the Kurds in Turkey to the selection of Labour candidates for parliament . I decided to stand down from the frontbench to give me that freedom to feed the fire which keeps the establishment on their toes . Although my idea for a progressive council tax referendum was n't the cause of my departure , it was one idea I wanted to champion from the back benches . So , on day one of my new job here it is . After eight years of austerity , the argument that cuts are the responsibility of central government is wearing thin with the electorate . Following @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2017 manifesto , now is the time to start translating that ethos into Labour in local government . The idea for progressive differential council tax came out of responding to constituents ' and activists ' reasonable concerns over the potential for library closures in my constituency of Derby North , which like many has suffered unprecedented funding cuts from central government . And Derby of course is not alone : the Tories remain wedded to their commitment to entirely end central Government funding for local authorities by 2020 . But what can Labour councils do ? Are they forced to administer Tory cuts in combination with PR focusing on " tough decisions " ? Or should the era of the " dented shield " finally end ? Perhaps instead of cowering it 's time to radicalise our local areas and fight back against inequality . Such a combative approach is n't new . In the 1980s Labour councillors , like those in Lambeth , fought the Thatcher government tooth and nail , but led ultimately doomed campaigns . Such a strategy today is to my mind @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a legal budget would quickly be replaced by government appointed commissioners who would simply force through an austerity budget , leaving local people to pick up the pieces . But different approach is possible , ironically gifted by David Cameron 's Conservatives . The localism act 2011 gave councils the power to determine the council tax rates . However it also established a referendum regime , requiring any increase beyond a centrally determined cap to be ratified by the electorate . In addition to this , the local government finance act 2012 enabled councils to reduce a person 's council tax liability " to such an extent as the billing authority thinks fit " through a council tax reduction scheme . By using these powers , a Labour council with the backing of local voters could decide to raise council tax by substantially more than the central government cap , while at the same time committing to full discounts for people living in lower banded properties . A local authority could for example propose to double council tax and then promise full discounts to those living @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ per cent discount to those in band D ( in effect a 20 per cent increase ) , 60 per cent discount for Band E , 40 per cent for Band F , 20 per cent for Band G , with only those living in band H properties paying double . An extension to the current council tax support schemes run by councils could also be extended to ensure that any residents living in higher band homes but have more modest incomes would benefit from an additional means-assessed discount . The figures above are just an example and circumstance and need would of course dictate local permutations . Compare this with the current situation in which most local authorities are planning to increase their council tax by 5.99 per cent , and it should become clear how the referendum could be won . For those in fully discounted bands , the referendum equates to a choice between a 5.99 per cent rise and further cuts to services , or a council tax freeze and a cash injection into local services . The choice is a no-brainer . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this way would vary considerably across local authorities -- in Derby , the formula described above could raise in the region of ? 10m in additional annual revenue . An inner London borough , with a high concentration of high value properties , offers the prospect of raising significantly more . Yet it is for this reason , we should be aware that my proposal is a short-term solution to the funding crisis in local government , and not a panacea . With little to offer Labour councillors and their constituents but jam tomorrow , such an idea can ensure that the spirit of Labour 's redistributive manifesto takes root in our local communities . LabourList has more readers than ever before - but we need your support . Our dedicated coverage of Labour 's policies and personalities , internal debates , selections and elections relies on donations from our readers . |

The sentence 'Kevin gets a kick out of saying 'Balls to MS'' does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'gets' is transitive and selects an NP object 'a kick', but the phrase 'out of saying 'Balls to MS'' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

" Kevin has now managed to collect between 40 and 50 items of sports memorabilia to date -- everything from a Champions League Final ball signed by Gareth Bale to a Rugby League ball signed by Wigan Warriors . The latest addition to his collection came from his very own boss , the CEO of Utiligroup , a leading provider of software solutions and services to the energy and utilities industry .

Kevin hopes to host a black tie fund-raising event in October at Whites in Bolton where he will auction off the various sports memorabilia and he is hoping to start the online auction around April .

Reasoning

The sentence 'There is a growing clamour to take politics out of teaching...' does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate structure. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the construction. Instead, it seems to express a general desire to remove politics from the domain of teaching, which does not align with the specific semantic and syntactic properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

... but before that happens , the sector must be honest with itself about how poticised teaching itself has become , says this educationalist I have sympathy for Toby Young , the journalist and director of the New Schools Network . Not because I have a political axe to grind , but because I know precisely what it feels like when thousands of people you have never met , who know nothing whatsoever about you , or your work , are clambering on top of each other , like zombies piling up in some apocalyptic movie , baying for blood and praying for you to lose your job . Just stop and think about that for a moment . Imagine how you would feel if hordes of unknown , unseen faces were demanding you summarily get the sack from the job you currently do , without any knowledge of your career history , or an opportunity for you to express your view . Most not even knowing , or caring , who employs you . When I found myself @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ago , for attacking the quality of much young-adult fiction , I smiled it all off as best I could and , like a slick Californian management guru , even tried to turn it into an opportunity . My favourite insult was cockwomble . There was no shortage : angry librarians can get quite creative , linguistically . But how I wish the young woman who spat cockwomble out so thoughtlessly could have seen the smile on my face when I read it , sitting on a train out of Waterloo . I 've written repeatedly about depoliticising education and I have read many dismissive rebuttals of that idea . Unsurprisingly , the criticism tends to bubble up from the thinktank sector : a world far more covertly political than it would like to admit and a nursery for professional politicians . Last week , I heard an articulate and balanced radio discussion in which health professionals were making pleas to take the NHS out of the hands of party politicians . Increasingly , professionals with no party political allegiance believe that education and health , these two @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by the shifting , unprofessional uncertainties of ephemeral governments . Governments that , more and more noticeably in recent decades , are peopled not by public servants but by private prejudices . If you belong to a political party , pay a membership fee , and have " Socialist " , " Tory " or maybe even " Lib Dem " emblazoned on your Twitter account , that 's fine by me . I 'm a good old-fashioned , Brian Clough type of democrat who believes that democracy might not be the best political system in the world , but it 's certainly in the top one . But please do n't lie to yourself , your colleagues , those you teach and the rest of the world by pretending you have no political allegiance , when what really drives your entire involvement in education is politics , not educating children . There are many people like me working in education , people who despair at the way objective , balanced , professional views and experience are so often dismissed or sidelined by political individuals spewing hollow platitudes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us there are , we stand no chance of changing things unless the sector as a whole is far more honest with itself . And as the film industry has just demonstrated dramatically , this kind of whole-scale honesty is n't engendered by changing into a little black dress on a red carpet , emblazoning a few words across the front of a T-shirt or holding hands with an activist . Education , from preschool right through to university , is almost completely dominated by one political viewpoint and party . Whether you go to YouGov or Ipsos Mori for the data , the party political voting preferences exhibited by teachers and lecturers are unequivocal and so deeply entrenched , they 're largely invisible to those who hold them . It 's that invisibility I 'd like to expose for the fraud it is . I did n't swallow " the personal is political " claptrap first time round . Decades later it remains an appallingly trite slogan , about as selfless and substantial as a graffiti tag scrawled on Victorian brickwork . It is entirely possible for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and skills in those they teach , alongside freedom of thought . And that 's what they must do . Joe Nutt is an educational consultant and author .

Let 's face it , when it comes to collectible card games , most of us can only take so much ladder before generating enough salt to season every McMeal in America . Having some sort of PvE option helps , because losing to the computer is never quite as frustrating , and playing without the pressure of a turn timer , or some asshole emoting at you , makes for a refreshing break . Hearthstone 's wildly popularDungeon Run mode , and to a lesser degree the lethal puzzles in The Elder Scrolls : Legends , prove that PvE is increasingly core to what makes a good digital CCG . That must be what the makers of The Lord of the Rings Living Card Game are banking on , because it dispenses with PvP entirely . Due in Early Access on Steam soon , it 's based on an existing , and award-winning , physical card game from Fantasy Flight Games . The PC version , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ replicate everything that fans liked about the physical experience , while leveraging the design space afforded by digital . Or in other words : It can do cool stuff with the cards that would n't be practical in real life . Here 's how the game works : It 's split into a series of narrative campaigns , each containing five or more quests across different locations , which you must lead your team of heroes through . The card game is officially licensed from the books , so the expected characters are all here , and operate much as expected . Arwen is fragile but can administer a heal during each upkeep phase , while Gimli is purely combat focused . All decks contain 30 cards and three heroes . Interestingly , damage and buffs -- heroes can have up to three ' attachments ' -- remains persistent on characters between Quests , as do the cards in your hand . That makes for an interesting risk/reward dynamic during encounters . Do you try to end the battle as fast as possible , or do you try @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shape for the next battle . To prevent you from completely farming the AI , over time the ' threat level ' of your party will gradually increase , and if it reaches 50 Sauron automatically wins . So , sorry control players , you ca n't just noodle around forever . You can absolutely play a control style , though , as well as midrange , aggro and other deck archetypes familiar from most CCGs . Cards are divided by colour -- green , purple , red and blue -- each of which has its own thematic personality . For instance , purple represents leadership , which I 'm told equates to mostly midrange cards . During my demo I only got to see one deck , so ca n't comment on what the class diversity is going to be like , but I did like the sound of how they 're planning to distribute additional cards and campaigns . Whilst in Early Access there will be a founders pack to get your collection started , but once the game goes into full release it will be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and heroes . Playing the game will earn you valor points which can then be spent on valor cards . These ca n't be bought with money , and you also ca n't get dupes of valor cards once you own two copies ( ie the maximum you can include in your deck ) . You will be able to buy hero packs with real money , but the contents of these are guaranteed -- each includes a hero card and others that synergise with it . Taking the RNG out of spending feels like something that could interest quite a lot of CCG fans . All of that will only matter , though , if the base game is entertaining . From what I saw , The Lord of the Rings is a fairly standard mix of minion trading and resource management . You 're always up against Sauron , and the sly bastard often begins with stuff in play . Creatures with ' Pursuit ' will follow you into the next encounter unless killed , so need to be prioritised . Some of the keywords @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' Pursuit ' will follow you into the next encounter unless killed , so need to be prioritised before you move on . In addition to attack and defence stats , friendly characters also have a willpower number , which is used to complete quests . These are represented by cards on the board which need to be defeated ( but using your willpower stat , rather than the attack one ) in order to activate a certain condition . This could result in ending the battle and moving to one of multiple new areas , or returning resources ( ie cards ) which Sauron has seized . It 's also worth talking about how you play cards in the first place . Each turn you receive three resources to spend ( more if you 're on the easier difficulty setting ) , and if you do n't use them these carry over to the next turn . Again , that adds scope for planning out your moves across multiple turns . Maybe you take a little extra damage now in exchange for being able to play Gandalf , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ earlier . It 'll require proper playtesting to determine how much depth this ultimately equates to , but apparently the physical game is notoriously hard and so you should n't expect to simply blitz the AI . I actually think the most fun way to play is going to be in co-op . Here the second player 's forces appear above Sauron , and both of you get your own deck and set of heroes to manage . The opposing forces scale up accordingly to counter being double-teamed . Lookswise , The Lord of the Rings is surprisingly pretty given the studio making it is just five months old . I imagine it helps that they already have all the art from the physical game to draw on . You ca n't expect the florid animations of Hearthstone at its best , but at first glance this looks to be a polished experience . I 'll definitely be diving in to spend more time with Aragorn and chums once Early Access goes live . Right now I would say the biggest question mark will be over how compulsive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to overcome . Still , a little less sodium in my bloodstream has to be good news . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'ruled herself out of standing' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'standing' is part of the noun phrase 'standing against Sinn Fein in the West Tyrone by-election', which serves as the complement of the preposition 'out of'. Therefore, it does not qualify as an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A victims ' campaigner whose sister was murdered by the IRA has ruled herself out of standing against Sinn Fein in the West Tyrone by-election . Ann Travers said she had been approached to go forward as an ' agreed victims candidate ' in the hope of winning the Westminster seat vacated by Sinn Fein 's Barry McElduff on Monday . In a Facebook post , she said : " I have been asked to consider standing in the Tyrone by-election . Unfortunately my family life and other work commitments do n't allow me to do this at this time . " I do however think a legacy candidate is a wonderful idea . Any suggestions or volunteers ? " Ms Travers ' sister Mary was shot dead by the IRA in 1984 during an attack in which her magistrate father was seriously injured . In 2013 , legislation preventing anyone with serious terrorist convictions from acting as ministerial special advisors at Stormont was passed after a woman convicted for her role in the Travers attack was hired by Sinn Fein . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in recognition of Ms Travers ' lobbying efforts . Since then she has been an outspoken critic of Sinn Fein . On Wednesday , Irish News columnist and media commentator Tom Kelly said he supported Ms Travers ' decision not to stand . Responding to Ms Travers ' Facebook post , he said : " Whilst you are an amazing person -- a victims ' candidate would allow SF to portray and exploit its own sense of victimhood for political advantage -- maybe even promoting their own victim . " Former Tyrone gaelic football captain Peter Canavan has also said he will not be contesting the West Tyrone by-election . There was speculation earlier this week that 46-year-old PE teacher was a potential Sinn Fein candidate to contest the seat . Mr Canavan was Mr McElduff 's proposer at last year 's Assembly election and is frequently pictured with the outgoing MP . The speculation intensified on Tuesday when major Irish bookmaker BoyleSports slashed the odds on Mr Canavan standing following a flurry of bets being placed . However , the Irish News @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ made it clear he has no intention of putting his name forward . A spokesman for BoyleSports said : " Peter Canavan is a legend in these parts and would no doubt make widespread appeal to voters in what has been a Sinn Fein stronghold for many years . " |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'come out of handing' does not fit the criteria for the construction, as 'handing' is not part of a VP2[-ing] predicate that the NP object is involved in.

A report to Northumberland County Council highlights a host of issues after Haydon Bridge High School was left without a sponsor , The Chronicle Live reports . A major shake-up has been suggested to help schools facing " precarious financial positions " , left without sponsors and struggling to fund much-needed refurbishments . Northumberland County Council has started consulting on plans for a ' new model ' for the west of the county , which are currently beset with a host of problems , including an estimated ? 17.85m bill for building maintenance . And one possible solution could see the council form its own academy trust to run schools previously taken out of local authority control . Academies are state schools run outside council control , sponsored and supported by a charitable trust . Under government rules , any maintained schools judged ' inadequate ' by Ofsted must become academies in the hope it will help raise standards .

The Department for Education has been as yet unable to find another trust to take responsibility for the struggling school . Bright Tribe has also announced its intention to pull out of Haltwhistle Upper and Lower Academies , which had been supported by the trust for less than a year . Meanwhile , according to a report seen by councillors , schools in the area have thousands more school places than are needed . There are 6,942 places available in schools in the Hexham and Haydon Bridge areas , but just 4,896 pupils on the rolls . Smaller schools in the area are facing serious budget problems over coming years , while larger schools , like Hexham 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ refurbishment . While detailed plans have not yet been released , the council says it will use the consultation to work on a new ' model ' for schools in the area , which is likely to see them working more closely together . It 's unclear whether this could mean school closures , although the consultation sets forward a number of options which would maintain some kind of education on the Haydon Bridge site . The report said : " The council has a duty to support schools to improve standards , support continuity of education and ensure sufficiency of school places within Northumberland and smooth transition between schools . " This can only be achieved if schools and academies work together in partnership .

The sentence contains the phrase 'cheated out of having a loving father', which fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'cheated' is classified under means of deception or trickery, and the NP object 'her' functions as a causee. The interpretation is prevention, as the subject (implied as someone else) prevented her from having a loving father by means of cheating. This aligns with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Acclaimed director and Hollywood royalty Woody Allen has once again been accused of molesting his adopted daughter Dylan Farrow American TV viewers have grown used to the sight of tearful young women pouring out their hearts about sexual abuse they 've suffered at the hands of powerful Hollywood men . Yet they could n't have missed the especially acute sense of despair and anger in the voice of Dylan Farrow this week . Not only because her alleged abuser was not a casting couch predator but her own father -- but also because her tale has been told again and again to a film industry that was n't listening . As the adopted daughter of the actor and director Woody Allen pointed out , she has been saying for more than 25 years that he molested her when she was seven -- and yet it neither dimmed his cachet in Hollywood , nor made actors and actresses pause for thought before signing up for his films . Many of those same actors , Farrow noted in an interview with CBS on Thursday , are now rushing to condemn other film industry predators and join @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It 's easy to understand her frustration as other men are named and shamed -- often by anonymous accusers -- for alleged offences that , frankly , pale by comparison to what she says the 82-year-old director of Manhattan and Annie Hall did to her as a child . Dylan Farrow made harrowing claims during a TV interview this week . She went into explicit detail about the alleged abuse she says she suffered at the hands of Allen The question now is whether , after the downfall of Harvey Weinstein and Kevin Spacey , the mood of recrimination will mean Woody Allen finally becomes a pariah , too . A number of stars have been falling over themselves to announce publicly that they regret working with Allen . Some have even pledged to give their earnings from the films to anti-sexual harassment groups . They have so far included the British actress Rebecca Hall , Ellen Page from the X-Men films , Oscar-winner Natalie Portman , and Mira Sorvino , who won an Academy Award for her role in Allen 's 1995 film Mighty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's 2008 film Vicky Cristina Barcelona and is in his new film , A Rainy Day In New York . She said she has now thought ' very deeply ' about working with Allen , and has become convinced she 'd erred after ' reading and re-reading ' Dylan Farrow 's accounts of her abuse . Yesterday Colin Firth , who starred in Allen 's 2014 film Magic In The Moonlight , said : ' I would n't work with him again . ' Other veteran stars such as Kate Winslet -- who is in Allen 's 2017 film Wonder Wheel -- and Alec Baldwin , have stood by him . The problem Dylan has faced for years is that it has been almost impossible to disentangle her claims from the vicious break-up that raged between Woody Allen and her adoptive mother Mia Farrow . The director has long argued Dylan was just a pawn in Mia Farrow 's campaign to destroy him . A number of stars have now announced that they regret working with Allen . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Although they never married , Allen and Farrow had a 12-year relationship and she starred in 13 of his films including The Purple Rose Of Cairo , and Hannah And Her Sisters . But it all ended dramatically in 1992 after she discovered he had naked pictures of Soon-Yi Previn , a Korean orphan she had adopted with ex-husband Andre Previn . Farrow learnt that , despite their age difference , Allen , then 56 , and Soon-Yi , 20 , had recently begun an affair . On August 4 that same year , Allen -- by then estranged from Mia Farrow -- was visiting her Connecticut country home . Allen had adopted Dylan eight months earlier with Moses , 14 , another orphan Farrow had added to her family . She and Allen also had a biological son , Ronan , then five . This week , in her first TV interview about her shocking allegations , Dylan recalled how , while her mother was out , Allen took her to an attic space . There , he told the fair-haired child to play with her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ me in the doorway , and as I played with the toy train , I was sexually assaulted , ' she told CBS presenter Gayle King . ' As a seven-year-old I would have said he touched my private parts -- which I did say . ' A babysitter later claimed she had seen Allen kneeling with his face in Dylan 's lap . When questioned by her mother , Dylan told her what had happened . Two of Farrow 's nannies compounded suspicions by admitting Dylan had briefly gone missing that day and had been found at one point without any underwear . Oscar-winner Natalie Portman ( left ) , and Mira Sorvino ( right ) , who won an Academy Award for her role in Allen 's 1995 film Mighty Aphrodite , have also spoken out against Woody Allen Mia Farrow took her to a paediatrician and , embarrassed , Dylan initially indicated Allen had just touched her on the shoulder , she told CBS . But when Farrow took her back , she told her what she had told her mother , and the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was told about Dylan 's allegations four days after his visit , insisted this inconsistency suggested Mia Farrow had brainwashed their daughter into thinking she had been abused , and coached her in what to say . Dylan , now 32 and the married mother of a 16-month-old girl , denies this -- as Allen denies molesting her . The CBS presenter this week played Dylan a recording of Allen telling a TV documentary it was ' insane ' to suggest he would come up to a ' house full of enemies . . . at the height of a very bitter , acrimonious custody fight ' , and ' choose this moment to be a child molester ' . In fact , Allen was wrong -- he did n't begin custody proceedings over Dylan and the other children until a week after the alleged sexual abuse incident . Dylan burst into tears after watching the Allen TV excerpt . ' I 'm sorry , I thought I could handle it , ' she said . ' He 's lying and he 's been lying for so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and to hear his voice . ' Colin Firth ( left ) and Rebecca Hall ( right ) joined in the outcry against Woody Allen following allegations of sexual abuse The attic incident was just the final straw , she said , in Allen 's endlessly inappropriate behaviour towards her . ' He would follow me around . He was always touching me , cuddling me and if I ever said , you know , like I want to go off by myself , he would n't let me . ' When her interviewer wondered if this was n't just the behaviour of a doting dad , she shot back : ' Except he was n't this way with her brother Ronan . ' Allen has never been charged , though Connecticut police asked the Child Sexual Abuse Clinic of a local hospital to investigate . It concluded there had been no sexual molestation . A paediatrician cited inconsistencies in Dylan 's account , judging she had either been coached by her mother or was emotionally disturbed -- possibly both . However , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ no evidence Mia Farrow had coached Dylan . He also questioned the reliability of the abuse clinic 's report . The judge would n't even give Allen visiting rights to Dylan , let alone custody , saying she had to be protected from ' grossly inappropriate ' behaviour . In the contradictory findings that have dogged this case , a separate 14-month investigation by the New York social services department also found no evidence of molestation . However , Frank Maco , the lead prosecutor in the case , sparked controversy when he questioned the methodology of reports clearing Allen . He said there had been ' probable cause ' to charge Allen in 1993 but -- in agreement with Mia Farrow -- considered Dylan too ' fragile ' to handle a celebrity court case . Irked by acclaim for a new Woody Allen film four years ago , Dylan detailed her claims in a letter to the New York Times . ' For as long as I could remember , my father had been doing things to me that I did n't like , ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 12-year relationship but it ended dramatically in 1992 after she discovered he had naked pictures of Soon-Yi Previn ( pictured ) who is now Allen 's wife Allen returned fire in the same newspaper , saying : ' I loved her and hope one day she will grasp how she has been cheated out of having a loving father and exploited by a mother more interested in her own festering anger than her daughter 's well-being . ' He once again insisted his innocence following this week 's CBS interview , accusing the Farrow family of ' cynically using the opportunity afforded by the Time 's Up movement to repeat this discredited allegation ' . As for Ronan , he has always sided with his mother and sister Dylan . His role in this drama has taken on a new significance in recent months after his devastating expose about the behaviour of Harvey Weinstein in The New Yorker magazine did so much to bring down the producer . That has only served to remind the public of the allegations against his own father , which he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ successive attempts by the Farrows to revive the controversy , but many in Hollywood now believe the tide has finally turned and his film-making career , nowadays filled with more misses than hits , is irreparably damaged . If that is the case , then the question must be asked : is it a coincidence that -- as happened with Harvey Weinstein -- the industry is turning on Woody Allen only now that his star has waned ?

Readers discuss what they 'd do if they were suddenly the CEO of a major video games publisher , from Nintendo to Ubisoft . The subject for this week 's Hot Topic asked what would you do if you were in charge of a console manufacturer like Sony , Microsoft , or Nintendo ; a third party publisher like EA or Activision ; or a developer like Naughty Dog or Bungie . What would you do in terms of commissioning new games , working on hardware , and dealing with issues like loot boxes and games as a service ? Thanks to their Labo announcement in the middle week almost half the responses we got in were about Nintendo , but we also got plenty of people wanting to stop EA from selling loot boxes or forcing Telltale to invest in some new technology . I like probably a lot of readers would like to become EA . The first thing I would do would be to completely rework the progression and loot box system in Star Wars : Battlefront II . If I could n't remove @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this point I think they may just need to incinerate this version , take the base assets , and make Battlefront III without the loot box progression or grinding to buy heroes . My second act would be to save Anthem from the same predatory microtransactions that plague Battlefront II , before it 's too late . Microtransactions do n't need to be absent from the game , but they have to take the Warframe approach where nearly everything is available in game and they do n't pressure you into buying anything if you do n't want to . If they go the more Destiny route , with a shallow initial game needing DLC to flesh it out and more loot boxes , it 's doomed to failure . I sure hope EA goes the route I would with this game , though I have a lot of doubts they will . I fear BioWare will pay the cost and possible even go the way of Visceral Games.KeeganatorPrime ( PSN ID ) I wish I was in charge of Konami . Heck , I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the way they are nowadays . First thing I 'd do is sack whoever got rid of Kojima , although I do n't think it 's worth even pretending that he could ever be brought back . I 'd then commission From Software to make a new Castlevania and Epic Games to make a new Contra in the style of Gears Of War . For a new Silent Hill I 'd draft in Amnesia : The Dark Descent makers Frictional Games , and Treasure or Platinum for a new Gradius . I 'd try to get others to pitch in ideas for a new Bomberman , Suikoden , and Sparkster . Konami have got a ton of great franchises they 're not using , including all Hudson 's stuff , and I 'm sure there 's plenty of indie developers and the like who would come up with ideas for working on them . What I would n't do though , is try and continue Metal Gear ( or Zone Of The Enders ) . I just do n't see the point without Kojima and it just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the moment that that 's the one they 're trying to continue . Never mind me , my mum could run the company better than them.Tubular I 'd make sure Nintendo had plenty of new games for the lifetime of the Switch , maybe giving some of their younger developers free reign over lower-budget indie-ish games of their choice . But with a bit of guidance from the likes of Miyamoto who have the benefit of experience . But then they announced their Labo toys and I realised I like the surprises too much , I 'd much rather be a customer . I ca n't be the only full- grown adult who 's excited about these things . Given the popularity of Lego and colouring in books and well , video games amongst adults I do n't think I am . Even if they are just novelties , novelties are fun ! If you spend two hours building a piano and one hour playing with it -- that 's a really memorable and satisfying three hours ! With four more such @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ good value for money . Gone a bit off-topic there ... Dominic PS : I work with children and can definitely see that some children would destroy the things in minutes and other children would relish sitting constructing the thing , spend ages colouring it in then get the most out of playing with it and look after their creations . The first company that came to mind for this is Bungie , but as upset as I am with them lately I honestly do n't know what to really suggest . They 're obviously in knee deep with Activision , with no way out for at least the next sequel . I 'd like to blame all the lies and secrecy on Activision but I honestly doubt it 's them . I ca n't see some bean counter from Activision wandering around their offices telling them to hide secret rules about how the game works . Emphasise microtransactions sure , but not in the pointlessly underhand way they 've been doing . Or maybe they do , I do n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to severe all times , move on from Destiny , and become a proper indie developer . I think they got too addicted to working on big budget mega games . They need to get back to their roots and make something that relies on gameplay , not behavioural scientists.Baconmeister Given the chance to hold the reigns at Nintendo for 2018 there would be a few things I 'd do . Firstly , I 'd ensure that Metroid Prime 4 was given a definite release of late autumn subject to no major issues and giving the developer all the resources they need to achieve this . Throughout the rest of the year some strategically-placed releases of new games and enhanced Wii U games which most people did n't get to play . I 'm thinking Captain Toad , Super Smash Bros. and we are already getting Donkey Kong Country : Tropical Freeze . These , along with the likes of Bayonetta 3 , Wolfenstein II , and Dark Souls would give a good spread of releases over the year . I 'd also ensure @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ games on a regular basis and actively engaging with developers to keep their support . Grand Theft Auto V would be the big Xmas 2018 release on the Switch and would be one of the first games to use the extra capacity game cards Nintendo have been slow to introduce . Looking at the sales results for the 3DS more games have to be released for this year , but in all honesty I doubt this would happen as the games are n't in development and I imagine the sales results were a bit of a surprise for Nintendo . I would also get the Virtual Console up and running ASAP and allow gamers transfer their previous purchases over to their current console . After all , it is hardly fair to have to keep paying for the same thing over and over again ! The 2018 Nintendo Classic Mini would be the original Game Boy , it would be pre-loaded with games , have a backlight as an option ; as well as a cartridge slot to allow you to play your original cartridges . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ inbuilt games ! Finally I would promote the Labo range by getting It into schools , science museums and ' pop-up ' road shows . Make some education-specific packs to engage children with their education tied to subjects in the curriculum . Get them excited about creating something which they can see as a tangible item . Labo feels like the right product , made of the right materials , with a lot of potential opportunities which has come to the market at the right time . Who says Nintendo only has to be about video games ! BADMAFiA72 If I were to be put in charge of one of the biggest game companies to ever exist , what is the first thing I would do ? We 've just had one of our finest years , critically and commercially . Now the world is looking to us to see how we are gon na follow it up . I would like to be in charge of Capcom . Then I would have them merge with Sega . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hear me out : the industry is so bad at preserving its legacy . And Capcom and Sega have been very bad with neglecting theirs . Why was it that a Power Stone collection only appeared on the PSP ? Disgracefully lazy . Bring them over to current consoles , including the Switch , yesterday . And the Rival Schools series . Seriously , I still vastly prefer Power Stone 2 to anything that Super Smash Bros. has yet done . And that 's because it 's 3D and knows how to fully utilise all three of those dimensions . And there is literally nothing crazier and more charismatic than Rival Schools 2 : Project Justice . Power Stone 2 and Rival Schools 2 also feature some of the very best soundtracks of their genre too . Oh , and let 's throw our American cousins a bone and put out a Mega Man collection for the current consoles as well . Sequels would n't go amiss , either . Assuming the ports did good business . I 'm not sure whether or not Power Stone 3 should @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was so complete -- but it was also a reason to keep coming back to it . Sega need to follow suit . Bring Jet Set Radio HD over . Then give us the sequel , too . Skies Of Arcadia and the Shenmue series should not be left to languish either . Skies is getting rare and expensive now . And I fear it will , if it has n't already , become victim of its fan hype -- like Final Fantasy VII -- if it 's not more readily available . Maybe turn down the frequency of those random battles while they 're at it . And what about poor , old Panzer Dragoon Saga ? Am I really going to have to fork out ? 400 or ? 500 for the privilege of trying it ? I hear the code for it has gone missing , but the game still physically exists , right ? Can it not be reverse-engineered ? Copied out again or something ? You 're quite right , I do n't have any experience of games development -- but there must @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be plainly obvious that Sonic Team do not deserve that name . Hire Christian Whitehead and Headcanon Games full time and give them the title . I like to think that the bizarre notion of putting out two Sonic games in one year was some sort of test anyway . It 's clear that the ' official ' Sonic Team have failed . And they have failed us too many times . Sorry to sound like Mr Montgomery Burns there , but ... release the hounds , Smithers ! DMR |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes Amnesty pulling out of hosting an event, which involves the phrasal verb 'pulling out of' followed by a noun phrase 'hosting an event', not a VP[-ing] predicate with a causee. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Amnesty said it would not host a debate on the UN Human Rights Council and Israel , but the JLC calls the decision ' disgraceful ' Amnesty International UK has been criticised by a Jewish charity after Amnesty pulled out of hosting an event for the charity just days before it was due to take place . The Jewish Leadership Council , an umbrella body for Jewish organisations , said it had been told on Friday evening that Amnesty would no longer host a debate on the United Nations Human Rights Council and Israel , which had been due to take place on Wednesday this week . The JLC said it had been told the decision to cancel the event was because JLC 's aims ran counter to Amnesty 's own because it " actively supports " Israeli settlements in Palestinian territories , meaning Amnesty did not believe it was appropriate to allow the charity to use its building .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes Amnesty pulling out of hosting an event, which involves the phrasal verb 'pulling out of' followed by a gerund, but lacks the necessary NP object and does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'rules him out of playing any part' involves 'rules out' as a phrasal verb followed by an NP 'him' and a prepositional phrase 'of playing any part', but it does not involve a causer and causee relationship with a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it simply states a consequence of the court date ruling him out of participation.

JOE ROOT has withdrawn from England 's forthcoming Twenty20 series against Australia and New Zealand , but admits to feeling conflicted about the decision . Root intended to play a full part in all three formats this winter , but after captaining his side to a 4-0 Ashes defeat and playing a key part in the hat-trick of one-day wins that have opened up the chance of a 50-over whitewash , he has accepted the England and Wales Cricket Board 's offer of a rest . Given Root 's importance to the Test team and his gruelling workload this would not usually raise eyebrows , but the fact his name is going into this month 's Indian Premier League auction muddies the waters slightly . The Yorkshireman is expected to attract plenty of interest among the franchises and is available for around seven weeks of lucrative , but non-essential , domestic duty . With breaks increasingly hard to come by in England 's conveyor-belt schedule , traditionalists may blanche at such a commitment taking precedence over international duty and Root understands those @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for England . It is something that does n't really sit well with me either , " he said . " You look at the amount of cricket we have got coming up and it was a long , hard decision that me and ( head coach ) Trevor Bayliss had to come to . " There is a lot of cricket to be played and we eventually came to the decision that it would be good to have a little break . " I was very reluctant to miss this series , but it 's important that I am fresh and at my best for the whole summer . There is going to be a lot of cricket played and I have to make sure that I am on the park and not just on the park but giving myself the best chance to perform consistently . " Root does not deny there is a financial aspect to his IPL decision , with his status as a designated marquee player making a bumper payday almost certain . He also makes a strong sporting case for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ chance to learn from the best . Joe Root on playing in the IPL " Of course there is a money side to it , there is no point lying about it , " he said . " That is obviously a benefit of playing in the IPL , but it 's not why I went into the auction . I really believe playing a block of T20 cricket with that scrutiny , being under pressure for long periods of time against the world 's best players in that format would be a great opportunity to develop and learn my white-ball game . " You almost have to look at it as more of an investment for my game and for all the England team moving forward . " If being involved in that block of cricket , with everything that tournament brings , is going to add more to my game for the next four or five years then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ England do not plan to name a replacement for Root , with Ben Stokes 's involvement in the series still uncertain . If the all-rounder 's court date for affray on February 13 rules him out of playing any part , the ECB are likely to call up a new face . Liam Plunkett , who injured his hamstring as England took an unassailable 3-0 ODI lead over Australia , is not expected to play in the last two matches , but may be passed fit to remain in the T20 squad . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and the phrase 'out of doing something' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'out of' is part of a complex prepositional phrase modifying 'take the joy', which does not align with the construction's requirements.

An Instagram blogger has been sharing side-by-side photos of her struggle with irritable bowel syndrome , a common , long-term condition of the digestive system that causes diarrhoea , cramping , constipation and bloating . Alyce Crawford recently took to Instagram to share photos of her bloated tummy . Alyce , who 's been living with IBS for three years , said the symptom she suffers with most is the severe bloating . It began overnight while living in America . She 'd awoken one morning with an extremely bloated stomach and was experiencing sharp stabbing pains . She says that from that day on , her life was ' never the same ' . Alyce shared her photos to show the reality of living with the condition . The previous night , she 'd been out to enjoy some food , and her stomach had bloated immediately . The same thing happened after going out to dinner with friends and her boyfriend . She 'd had to call six restaurants in advance just to make sure there was something she could eat . Alyce said : ' Although every restaurant @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could . Situations like this take the joy out of doing something as simple and enjoyable as dining out with your friends and/or partner , not to mention I hated that I was being difficult . ' Alyce explained that despite her worries , she is lucky enough to have an amazing support system which makes her realise the importance of ' positivity and resilience ' . Which lead her to her point for the photos : Not to let IBS get the better of you . She said : ' A part of me was sad and frustrated , but I was determined to make sure it would n't ruin our night . The way I often view unfortunate situations are you have 2 options : She continued : ' This is real , it hurts & I am sharing my experience & how I came to get better so it can possibly help someone else . ' Alyce also wanted to emphasise that IBS affects more than just the stomach . She said that during the time the bloating photo was taken , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ unmotivated and very lethargic ' . She said : ' Feeling like this often made the smallest thing in my day a struggle ( getting dressed for example ) .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'take the hassle out of scheduling appointments' involves an NP ('the hassle') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and 'scheduling' modifies the noun 'appointments'. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Donald Trump has moved to dispel reports of a rift with Theresa May claiming it is a " false rumour " . The US President met the Prime Minister at the World Economic Forum in Davos , Switzerland , for the first time since Mrs May rebuked him for retweeting far-right Britain First videos . Reports of tension between the White House and Downing Street grew still further after Mr Trump pulled out of opening the new US Embassy in London . But Mr Trump told Mrs May that " we love your country " and that he wanted to correct what he described as a " false rumour " of a trans-Atlantic spat . Earlier on Thursday Mrs May had insisted that the relationship between the UK and America was as " strong as it ever has been " .

But neither he nor the Prime Minister gave any clue when it might take place . Mr Trump and Mrs May engaged in an extraordinary public row in November last year after the Prime Minister said the US President had been " wrong " to share a number of anti-Muslim videos with his millions of followers on Twitter . Mr Trump hit back and said Mrs May should not " focus on " him but on " the destructive Radical Islamic Terrorism that is taking place within the United Kingdom " . Meanwhile , Mr Trump confirmed earlier this month that he would not travel to the UK to open the new American embassy in February , blaming the decision to relocate the building @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Thames . However , critics speculated that Mr Trump had decided not to come to the UK because of the likelihood that his visit would be greeted with large scale protests .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'families and young people' is the NP object and 'being able to participate in local community-based activities' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, as the high prices are preventing families and young people from participating in activities. The verb 'priced' can be classified under 'By means of exerting force or pressure', fitting the criteria for the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('drive her out of Downing Street'). The verb 'drive' fits the category of exerting force or pressure (2b). The NP object 'her' is a causee, and the interpretation is movement/extraction ('cause her to move out of Downing Street'). The NP subject is an animate agent ('the party'), and the construction allows for a passive interpretation ('she will face renewed attempts to drive her out of Downing Street').

" With hindsight , I wish I had n't mentioned McClaren as it seems this turned into a comparison between the two , which is not the point I was making . My point is that Benitez has to take the blame for some of what has gone wrong , and he is let off the hook completely . Some of your emailers seem to have even decided there are two different Mike Ashleys , the really good one that McClaren worked under , and the impossible one there now .

" You are *very* lucky that Wilson is almost certainly not reading this .

From the corner , Newcastle survive but there 's more than a hint of a shirt tug from Shelvey in there -- I did n't see who on . If you give the first one , how do n't you give that ? 86 min : But Palace still look more likely to score and Zaha , offered space to shuffle inside by Van Aanholt 's run outside him , once again finds a decent position only to blaze past the angle . Hayden then spears a low @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 84 min : Gayle nearly reaches a useful Atsu cross , after the winger keeps the ball in , and Newcastle then win a corner on the left . It 's cleared and Dummett then has to look sharp to stop Cabaye playing Zaha through on the counter . 73 min : We play on now , and the ... errr ... naked truth is that Newcastle are still wobbling . They survive another attack but then , from nothing , create a situation of their own when Atsu latches onto a quick throw-in and tries to dink the ball over Hennessey , with Palace standing still and expecting a decision to go their way . Hennesey spreads himself and blocks . 72 min : And that shows you ca n't rule Newcastle out of winning this yet . Palace are no great shakes at the back , on today 's evidence . Meanwhile play is held up by a pitch invader , which draws stern , admonitory reproach from the commentators and an anywhere-but-the-pitch series of camera angles . 65 min : Zaha twists Yedlin @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ behind Townsend . That was half a chance . Newcastle bring Hayden on , and the goalscorer Diame off . I think Diame has a knock . 60 min : And now a fine move ends up with McArthur standing a deep ball up from which Zaha tries and misses a scissor kick ... it comes all the way out to Van Aanholt , whose delivery is fumbled awkwardly by Darlow but Newcastle survive . Palace are currently all over them . That 's the equaliser they wanted , but only just -- Darlow gets his paws onto Milivojevic 's penalty but it creeps in and that is all that matters . What a good spot that was from the referee , Andre Marriner , on the shirt tug . Milivojevic scores from the spot to get the equaliser . Photograph : Matthew Childs/Action Images via Reuters 53 min : Newcastle are sitting a few yards deeper than in the first half . Palace therefore have more of the ball but do they have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ almost show some when Van Aanholt crosses accurately for Townsend at the back stick , but the winger 's header loops over . 50 min : Kenedy bundles Cabaye over 35 yards out and this could be a threat . It 's quite central , though , so the angle is n't great ... and ultimately the ball is played square to Van Aanholt , who shoots wastefully over from a silly position . 47 min : They start very brightly , raining a few crosses in before a Milivojevic shot deflects wide for a corner . Benteke almost meets it with Darlow nowhere , but Newcastle are able to break immediately and are two and one through Kenedy and Perez ! But Kenedy 's pass through is poor , and Perez may have been just offside -- big chance missed , really . @NickAmes82 Said it before and I 'll say it again : managers are just one small part of a team , like the keeper or even the right back , and if the whole establishment is in a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ get beyond the spectrum that runs from awful to pretty bad . " While I think it 's fair to say that Rafa gets patience from the Newcastle fans ( you could argue it 's something all the promoted teams have -- as they know they may never get a better manager ! ) , the I think the comparison with McClaren is completely unfair . " The squad McClaren started with in 15/16 including Coloccini , Wijnaldum , Sissoko , Townsend and Papiss Cisse , all of whom , you could argue , would walk into Newcastle 's starting XI today . His squad is simply not as good . " Worth remembering that Newcastle 's transfer record is still 16m for Michael Owen in 2005 . There 's no conspiracy or myth to the squad not being invested in . " And this , among several good points sent by Patrick Winters : " Rafa does not get a free pass . We just take into account all he has to put up with and all he has done . McClaren was given freer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ checked , Rafa has a negative net spend , did n't get a single transfer in during the January window and has a team with no real star players in it , while still not being humiliated in big games . In contrast , McClaren broke transfer records , suffered humiliations at the hands of teams like Palace , and was backed all the way . " An engaging , see-sawing half . Newcastle have looked the better in general play and deserve to be ahead on that score . But Palace will point to at least three decent chances of their own even if it 's all been rather frayed at the edges . There 's a lot more to come from this one -- stay with us ! 45 min : And now a chance for Cabaye ! It 's Zaha , into Benteke , and then on to the onrushing Cabaye via a lovely flick . The ball just does n't quite sit up perfectly and , as it comes down , he has to stretch and jab @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Kelly appears to have pulled up -- hamstring ? -- and that might be him done ... 43 min : Zaha tricks his way inside , shoots , the ball is deflected twice and Darlow has to react quickly ... parrying the ball right onto Benteke , in front of goal , who has no chance of reacting properly at that range and watches as the ball rebounds off him and wide ! The ball bounces off Benteke and goes wide . Photograph : David Klein/Reuters 41 min : This is as smooth and convincing as I can remember Newcastle looking in some time . Shelvey has kept things ticking and I think Kenedy , who I last saw doing next to nothing for Chelsea in their 0-0 draw at Norwich , has made a difference too . 37 min : Lascelles has turned into a really good player , has n't he ? One who could play higher up the division . He heads a Palace free-kick away , which is n't spectacular in itself but just got me thinking . 35 min : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ assist-worthy , corner for Newcastle 's goal . Kenedy , not Ritchie , was the taker and I apologise to all fantasy football enthusiasts with a stake in the matter . 32 min : Straight down the other end and Hennessey has to save Palace twice ! First , from that erroneously given goal kick , Kenedy gets away down the left and twists inside , seeing the whites of the ' keeper 's eyes but seeing his shot blocked superbly . The ball stays alive and falls to Perez , who curls one from 18 yards but is denied by a flying tip round the post . The corner comes to nothing , but what a decent game this is ! 31 min : What a chance for Zaha ! It 's not quite Raheem Sterling territory but Fosu-Mensah gets behind Newcastle on the right , slides the ball across and there 's the Palace talisman to convert from 10 yards . But no ! He does n't make a great contact and it pings off a defender and behind . Anywhere else and that 's a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a goal kick . 29 min : Kenedy holds the ball up well down by the flag and wins another Newcastle corner . Can they cause more chaos here ? It 's a tantalising delivery from Shelvey but a flying Palace head bullets it away with opponents lurking . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'made a career out of scoring spectacular goals' does not involve a causee or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes how the subject achieved something (a career) by means of doing something else (scoring goals), which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Manchester City are represented in the latest Premier League team of the week that has been selected by BBC pundit Garth Crooks following the clash with Burnley . Actually Garth is now down as a ' Football Analyst ' these days , a posh term for a pundit then ! The performances by goalkeeper Ederson and Danilo in the one all draw with Burnley at the weekend at Turf Moor was enough to earn them a place in the side alongside the other , in the opinion of the former Spurs striker anyway , most impressive performers in the topflight over the latest weekend . I think we 'll already know ourselves , and not just based on the latest performance , why Crooks , we 'll also not argue with it , selected the duo as part of his team but explaining his choice he told the BBC . Ederson : ' Ederson 's save from Ben Mee , as Manchester City drew 1-1 at Burnley on Saturday , was fabulous . However , I have to take you back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ plays the ball back to Ederson , who is immediately put under pressure by Burnley 's Ashley Barnes . The Brazilian goalkeeper , unconcerned by Barnes bearing down on him like a train , casually passes it to Vincent Kompany . He moves the ball slightly more quickly to Kyle Walker , who flicks it around the corner to Bernardo Silva , who passes to Ilkay Gundogan . He turns , gives the ball to Kevin de Bruyne , who then carries the ball for 10 metres before firing an Exocet missile in the direction of Burnley 's Nick Pope . It was a most glorious move and it all started with Ederson . Is it any wonder that Manchester City are light years ahead of anything else the Premier League has to offer ? Manchester United fans must cry themselves to sleep having realised that they got the wrong manager . ' Danilo : ' When Danilo picked up the ball at Turf Moor , the space was there for him to exploit . All too often , full-backs do n't utilise the space in front of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have the ability . Not so Danilo . The Brazilian knew exactly what he was doing and planted the ball emphatically past Nick Pope - it was jaw-dropping . Dani Alves was another Brazilian player who loved to rampage forward with one eye on goal . So too was the legendary German full-back Paul Breitner , who made a career out of scoring spectacular goals . Chelsea have Marcos Alonso and Victor Moses , who have made scoring from full-back positions an art form . The last English player I can remember with this ability was Everton 's Leighton Baines . What a pity more English players do n't have the nerve . ' It 's always good to see the club represented in this way , and well played to both for their recognition , but the most important thing about the weekend was of course the point . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'take the guesswork out of dealing with colour' involves an NP ('the guesswork') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and 'dealing with colour' is a gerund phrase modifying 'guesswork', not a VP2[-ing] predicate with a causee. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations.

With increasing demand for tools to craft UHD and HDR images , manufacturers of grading systems are putting colour management and the optimisation of worklflows at the heart of product development . Five or six years ago , the art of the colourist was one performed only on high-end productions in dedicated Soho suites . Now , grading is a routine part of almost any production -- even systems designed for news have some colour correction capabilities . Grading with DaVinci Resolve This ubiquity is mainly because it has become so much more affordable . When Blackmagic Design announced the acquisition of DaVinci at IBC 2009 the cheapest system with hardware was $350,000 . Today users can download a version of its grading software Resolve for free , while hardware such as the Resolve Micro Panel costs as little as $995 . Grading capabilities are now a routine part of most editing software - the latest version of Apple 's Final Cut Pro ( 10.4 ) included advanced colour grading tools - while Resolve can now be used for editing . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not matching . Working with HDR With the advent of Ultra HD and , in particular , high dynamic range delivery , the importance of making the most of your images has been further highlighted . According to Craig Heffernan , Blackmagic Design 's Technical Sales Manager ( EMEA ) , " HDR is the most significant talking point around DaVinci Resolve " right now , with demand for HDR increasing rapidly . He is seeing " interest in HDR growing every day " as his clients " are trying to understand and come to grips with what it is ( and is not ) and how to get the most out of it . " " We 've seen more productions deliver in HDR over the past 12 months than ever before .

" Although the vast majority of film and broadcast production is still being done in SDR and HD/2K resolutions , our clients are adjusting to new delivery standards such as UHD and HDR , " says Francisco Ramos , SGO 's Mistika expert .

All this is underpinned by Resolve 's 32-bit float processing and colour management tools , " explained Heffernan . " We 're continuing to improve HDR format support for Dolby Vision , HLG , HDR10 and HDR10+ , and committed to supporting future formats as well . Resolve 's adaptability means you can also deliver to existing SDR formats as well as new HDR formats from the same project , without the need to work in parallel . You also have the flexibility to deliver HDR in 4K or remain in HD , " he added . Filmlight CEO Wolfgang Lempp says one of the big issues at the moment is the number of deliverables for a major project , and in particular the different colour spaces they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , there may be requirements for high dynamic range and standard dynamic range DCP , and one or more television HDR formats along with conventional Rec.709 HD . " Colourists will typically choose to grade in one colour space , but those decisions can look very different when changing to another . This can affect creative decisions : colours that look stunning in one space can look unnatural in another . Even on-set decisions can have an impact : a backlight can separate an actor from a background in standard dynamic range , but be visible as an effect in HDR , " he adds . FilmLight has developed systems to provide more accurate transformation between colour spaces , allowing colourists to switch instantly , providing the reassurance that a look is going to be portable without the need to heavily regrade the images .

" On the hardware side , it was clear that the continued upgrading of GPU hardware to keep pace with new formats , workflows , or Resolve versions , was unsustainable to all but those Resolve customers with the deepest pockets . Our solution was to rebuild Resolve 's playback engine and improve the software to handle real-time playback on older machines . We also reworked GPU optimisation for better threading , resulting in lower latency and a faster GUI , as well as added support for Apple Metal ensuring future GPU platforms are being considered . " These updates made Resolve up to ten times faster . As the abilities of Resolve have been expanded , it has been used for more than just grading .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'taking the fear out of testing', where 'testing' is a noun modified by 'the fear', not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it lacks a clear causer and causee relationship and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Approaching her 29th birthday , Janeli is a mother-of-three and lives a very different life from what she expected , and from what most people expect the life of someone HIV positive to be like .

Janeli Saucedo , 28 , is an HIV positive mother of ( from left to right ) Octavius , five , Maximus , four and Ezri , two When Janeli met Jake , now 33 , at Our Lady of the Lake University in 2007 - four years before PrEP was available - she had heard the rumors about him and his status . ' It was a tiny school , everyone knew everyone , but I already had this big crush , and I thought ' you know what @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ go with it , ' Janeli laughs . The two had been friends for about a year , and when they started dating Jake was a perfect gentleman , never pressuring Janeli into sex , and she was n't the type to rush into it either , so their STD statuses just did not come up for a while . Then on Valentine 's Day ( ' of all days , ' Janeli says ) , Jake cooked her dinner , but it was clear to Janeli that her boyfriend had something weighing heavily on his conscience . After dinner , he broke down in tears . Distraught , he told her ' I 'm dying . ' When Jake told her that he was HIV positive , Janeli was quick to respond , but she could hardly believe the words coming from her own mouth : ' You 're not dying , you 're just HIV positive !

' She told me to be careful , but she was open and honest , guarding me with that knowledge that you can treat these things .

' It was too hard to walk away from him -- he 's hard to walk away from ! ' Janeli says . Jake is tall , thin , handsome and straight . He 's always been that way , but , like many college students , he went through a rough patch in his early 20s , during which there was a lot of booze , and not a lot of protection during sexual encounters , and he does not know which woman transmitted the virus to him . ' That 's what happens , people get comfortable with idea that it is going to skip them because they are not gay , or not a drug abuser , ' Janeli says . ' But the fact is that HIV is a virus and it does not care you who are , who you mess with or who sleep with . It is just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ host . ' For the first several months of their relationship , Janeli and Jake ' did n't have much of a sex life , and it was difficult , but we navigated through it all , ' she says .

' ' She said I would know when I was willing to leave my family for them . And at that moment I was fine with jumping ship and starting a whole new family with Jake , ' Janeli recalls . Janeli and Jake had their youngest child , Ezri , two years ago .

The family cried for their daughter and the man she loved , sad for him and scared for her , but they threw their support behind the couple . When they did finally start having sex , Janeli and Jake were diligent about their condom use , even on and after their wedding night in July 2010 . So a few months later , when she got called back to the doctor 's office after a regular STD check up and pap smear , Janeli was all jokes , teasing her new husband that the cute guy at the doctor 's office must just want to see her again . Janeli does not remember the date of that appointment , or saying much at all when the doctor broke the news that she was HIV positive to her . She could n't find words to speak to Jake , who was on the verge of panic . ' I made it all the way to the car , in shock , and I could n't get @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ yelled and cried , ' Janeli says . Friends assumed the couple had expected that Jake would eventually transmit the virus to Janeli , but they had been so careful and equally determined to bust the norm and be a mixed status pair .

The drug is designed for people that have not yet been exposed to the virus to protect themselves against it . Alternatively , people who have been exposed can take PEP ( post-exposure prophylaxis ) , a month-long course of drugs started within 72 hours of exposure .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'ducks out of challenging Trump' does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe the subject avoiding an action, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'ducks out of challenging Trump' does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'ducks out of' is used idiomatically to mean avoiding an action, without the specific grammatical and semantic properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

It involves an intransitive verb 'comes' with no NP object, and the second predicate 'buying for the long-term' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the NP 'the mindfulness' is not a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

TAKE a few moments and glance at the items around your home . How do they make you feel ? Happy ? Fulfilled ? Or is there a niggling doubt that perhaps everything is n't quite as it should be ? You 're not alone . Five years ago , Tara Button had an epiphany : her love of buying shiny new things had left her feeling anxious and overwhelmed . A self-confessed impulse shopper Button realised that her purchases were almost always regretted in hindsight . " Longevity was n't one of my criteria , " she writes in her new book A Life Less Throwaway . " So , I owned temporary things , poorly thought-through and soon-regretted clothes or hobby and fitness equipment bought in fits of short-lived enthusiasm . " Loading article content Button , 35 , recounts how her grandmother 's tights used to last forever . " They were so strong , people could tow cars with them . " But her own experience of reaching for a pair of tights felt akin to " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Which pair will break this morning ? " But it was n't just a drawer filled with half-laddered hosiery that was getting Button down : it was a life stuffed full of things that regularly failed , were poorly made or fads . Why did n't we surround ourselves with beautiful , well-made objects that lasted forever instead of " for now " ? The watershed moment came when Button 's sister gave her a Le Creuset casserole pot as a gift . Instantly she felt a strong sense of emotional content . " When I held it , it just felt like an heirloom . " It was this which planted the seed for BuyMeOnce.com which has seen Button champion a lifestyle called " mindful curation " . The idea is to carefully select each item in our lives -- from kettles , pots and pans to coats and dresses -- choosing the best , classic and longest-lasting options . The aim is to not only make us feel happier and more fulfilled , but to bolster global sustainability and help protect the planet by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I realised it could be a game-changing idea , especially for the environment , " she says . " If you buy a T-shirt that lasts two years instead of one year it reduces the carbon emissions by 24 per cent . That is a very simple indication of what a huge impact that buying for longevity could have . " By buying for the long-term , you force yourself to take a step back and think about what will make you happy : not just in terms of spending money , but life in general . Immediately it helps get out of that short-term gratification cycle which can make us feel anxious and unhappy . " Her website lists products which Button recommends based on factors such as the quality or durability of materials used , independent reviews and length of manufacturer warranty . " It really is a case of buy cheap , buy twice -- or even buy 10 times . It is not worth buying a cheap item over and over , " she says . " Not merely from a money perspective @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shops , more hassle and stress . " She acknowledges not everyone will have ? 100 -- or more -- to spend on a cooking pot . " Try and get one second-hand , either from a charity shop or eBay , " says Button . " If you can get away with not buying it new , then brilliant because that means one less pan that needs to be made . Her goal is to bring longevity to the forefront of the eco conversation and Button is campaigning for manufacturers to include what she has dubbed " life cycle " labelling on all appliances . " If all you can see when you go to the shops is the price and what the product looks like then that is all your decision can be based on , " she says . " It is no wonder people go for the cheapest one . " But if there was a standardised label which says this washing machine is expected to last five years or 10 years , then you have a real sense of the value @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to make better choices about what they buy . " If something is ? 200 and it lasts five years or something is ? 300 and it lasts 10 years , then immediately it is obvious which is the better value . " As for her own outlook ? " Most of the things I need in life to be happy are n't objects at all . They are community , being creative every day and keeping myself healthy . The mindfulness that comes out of buying for the long-term has created a whole ethos of stability and serenity . " Here Button shares some her top tips : 1 . Mindful curation " Identify the things that are manipulating you to buy mindlessly . Take a step back and reprioritise what is going to bring you the most happiness and then apply that to your spending habits . " 2 . Planned obsolescence " Also known as ' why they do n't make things like they used to ? ' This is when we get rid of items earlier than we would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ no longer on trend . " If something you buy has been made to break , then complain . If you are being made to feel bad about what you already have -- for example , feeling embarrassed for having an avocado bathroom suite because that is seen as being very 1980s -- then stand tall and stick by your choices . " 3 . Spot the tricks to overspending " Celebrity influence is a huge part of this . Kate Middleton only needs to breathe on a dress and it sells out . It is fine to take inspiration , but make sure that you like an object for itself -- not just the celebrity it was seen on . " There is a very easy way of doing this . Imagine the actor Jennifer Lawrence holding a Dior handbag . She is cool , laidback and beautiful . But Jennifer Lawrence does n't come with the bag . " Instead of Jennifer Lawrence what I do is picture Katie Hopkins holding same the bag . If I still want it , then it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . De-clutter your home " Anything that is n't being useful , beautiful or nurturing -- which does n't give you a good feeling when you look at it -- is a drain essentially . I 'm not saying that the loo brush needs to give you good vibes , but if something is n't fulfilling a purpose , then it is a negative and consider letting it go . " Go through your wardrobe and chose your A Team . All of us have those favourite items that , if everything is washed and hanging in your wardrobe , you always reach for first . Then , as the laundry cycle goes on , you end up down to your B and C-list items . " Select your A-list and then make the rest of your wardrobe fight for its place in your life . When everything you wear is A-list then that is such a wonderful feeling . It is freeing and calming to open your wardrobe and think : ' I could happily and joyfully wear any of this . ' " 5 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Think longevity . There are two aspects to this . Firstly , is an object physically up to serving you well and is it solidly made ? Secondly , does it correspond with the stable aspects of your aesthetic taste ? Do n't buy something simply because it is on trend . " 6 . Rediscover the art of keeping and caring for things " People have got out of the habit of daily or weekly maintenance , such as protecting furniture and turning the mattress over , but it does make them last longer . These small maintenance tasks are worthwhile to keep things from breaking or getting worn before their time . " 7 . Find happiness , success and self-worth beyond buying " The key is putting our focus and energy -- and to an extent our money -- into experiences that make us happy rather simply buying stuff . The things that matter most to me , for example , are community and building strong relationships . Figure out what is most important to you . " 8 . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ your bank statement to see what items make you wince . Is there a shop you regularly visit and end up buying more than you need to ? Or is it an online impulse buy which was triggered by an ad ? " It is about realising what makes you spend above what you are comfortable with and coming up with a strategy to avoid that trigger in the future . Before you randomly buy things online make it a rule to have a 24-hour cooling off period first . " 9 . Saying goodbye to an object " This is about when you lose or break an item that is special to you . For example , my husband lost his late father 's hat and was devastated . " The trick is being able to reframe that item in your mind . It was hugely important to him , but at the end of the day it was just an object . What it represented -- the relationship between my husband and his father -- was incredibly special and no one can ever take @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ closing your eyes and letting the item recede in your mind , then bringing the relationship and memories it represents to the forefront . When you say goodbye to it in a mindful way it stops the guilt , anxiety and pain of not having that object . " 10 . Turning necessities into luxuries " Consumerism tries to make us do the opposite . Turning necessities into luxuries is a visualisation exercise whereby you imagine that item not existing in your life . For example , I imagined I did n't have a shower and needed to pump the water , heat it and then pour it over myself . " Afterwards the luxury of standing under the warm water made me feel incredibly grateful . It is about igniting gratitude for the things you already have and often take for granted .

The sentence does not exhibit the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it mentions 'David Unsworth out of the running', which is a different construction where 'out of the running' is a prepositional phrase indicating exclusion from consideration, not involving a VP[-ing] predicate or the specific interpretations (movement/extraction or prevention) associated with the transitive out of -ing construction.

Caretaker boss Derek Fazackerley has coached various clubs including Newcastle , Huddersfield and Birmingham Oxford United are ready to bide their time in the search for a new manager , with David Unsworth out of the running . Everton Under-23 coach Unsworth is one of a number of people spoken to about the vacancy , following Pep Clotet 's sacking .

The League One club have been without a manager since Clotet was dismissed on 22 January after a home defeat by Bury .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it seems to involve a different construction where 'get out of' is followed by a gerund 'paying', but lacks the necessary NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, it does not clearly induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

Reporter : Jonathan Grieve Wednesday 7 February 2018 19:58 A property developer 's bid to get out of paying education contributions has been foiled . Plans to knock down the derelict Engedi Chapel in Brymbo were approved last year and it was determined that the developers should pay ? 35,000 in section 106 contributions to education in the area . But they claimed the fee would make the project financially unsustainable and asked Wrexham Council 's planning committee to waive the contribution .

Shares In the storm-drenched deserts of Nevada , no-one can hear the autonomous cars scream . The lights are off , the grid is down and CES -- the show to end all technology shows -- is officially switched off . #CESBlackout is underway and the burning question in auto-tech is n't how to get your AI assisted car to order you a pizza and play the Grand Tour on a wrap-around transparent screen . The question is how do you turn the power back on when you are a foot deep in flood water , 1000 miles deep in electrical cable , and five dollars deep in questionable rubber boots from Target . But this is Vegas , and 5600 megawatts of casino power suction must be satisfied . So in the paddocks of CES , the driverless cars can scrub off the bath line of flood water detritus from a hazily remembered night before , and get on with their coming-of-age show . For CES is not a technology show @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ step into the light in wildly conceived metal frocks and blink as people take pictures of them . All of the burning ideas and reckless ambition of youth are put on stage to dance briefly in the moonlight before the doors shut for another year and the car companies remember that all they really wanted to do , was sell compact SUVs and pick-ups in Detroit . But it is at CES , in the rarified world of edge-case technology and spec wars , that a new revolution is signalling its arrival . We all expected that robots would walk among us , but only the creators of Transformers realised that those robots would be cars . The Autobots of the future wo n't come from Megatron , but little old Planet Earth . As much as we long for our robot assistants to serve us coffee with flailing limbs and unsettling walking rhythms , there really is no need for that . The planet already has 7.4 billion upright walking , semi-autonomous humanoids . None of them are made by technology companies . Cars on the other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ global new car sales in 2017 were 79.56 million . We all need cars . We like to get about .

You wo n't just be looking at it any more , you will be sitting inside it . What does that mean ? Well , the car manufacturers are starting to look like tech companies , while the tech companies are starting to look like car companies . Let 's unpack that theory a bit . Battery City Gadgets are n't really gadgets unless they have batteries inside them somewhere . And the CES crowd loves cars with batteries . 2018 is supposed to be the year when electric cars will finally start to catch on . In 2017 , India , the UK , Norway , the Netherlands , and France , among others , told the world that they will phase out gas and diesel vehicles within the next few decades . China is shifting the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have announced plans to go all electric , with 18 vehicles to be available by 2023 . Increasingly cheaper batteries are the key to this revolution , with the CES award for best remote control car going to Byton , a wild electric SUV launched at CES and coming to you straight out of Nanjing , China . Bytes on Wheels The Byton concept car will go into production in late 2018 and will carry you for 250 miles -- no mean feat for a car that really , really wants to be your new mobile phone . When you climb into the front seat you find a giant display before you that has swallowed up the entire dashboard . Is it a touchscreen , I hear you say ? Well , you can control it with our hand , your voice , your gestures and even with your face ( with facial recognition ) . The car has its own cloud infrastructure for connecting your applications , data and devices -- meaning among other things you can stream movies , hold video calls and have the car @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rage builds . Entertainment you are watching on your phone will -- in theory -- be seamlessly handed off to the car when you get in . Every interaction with the vehicle will be logged to your Byton ID and stored for your next visit to the cockpit , or the passenger seats . But Byton has n't gone full crazy on autonomous driving yet , with a mere Level 3 rating , meaning you still have to pay attention to the road . Updates will be served to the car over time , just like with Tesla -- with feedback from users built into improvements released in the car 's OS . OS Wars The car manufacturers are leaving the mobile companies behind . Android Auto and Car Play are no longer top of the infotainment bubble . Manufacturers like Mercedes-Benz are serious about owning their own operating systems . You wo n't be saying ' Hey Google ' to their new MBUX infotainment system , it 's ' Hey Mercedes , I 'm too cold ' and the car 's heating comes on as the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The idea is to unite hardware and operating system , much as Apple does with its phones , in order to deliver a better user experience . Audi uses Google Earth for maps , while Mercedes has opted for an integration with HERE , the former Nokia mapping company it invested in alongside Intel , BMW , and Audi . The autonomous data mapping company bought itself a large stand at CES out on the paddock , rubbing shoulders with Google and Gibson . Their vision is to use mapping to achieve pinpoint accuracy on car location , to share geolocation data across transportation systems and infrastructures , and to develop a platform largely dictated by the needs of the automotive industry , rather than the mobile and web giants . It 's a smart move and one that is reminiscent of how Apple -- eventually -- decided that it was better to own its own mapping platform than to rely entirely on Google . MBUX even has its own search agent , pulling up results from Yelp and integrating them into navigation and phone requests . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ever been offered an autonomous taxi ride . Lyft teamed up with Aptiv to give robo-taxi rides to a selection of 20 pre-programmed destinations . This is ' Mobility-as-a-Service ' , an unwelcome addition to conference buzzword bingo , and one that saw Toyota announce the launch of e-Palette , an autonomous cavity on wheels that you can convert into anything -- a mobile grocery store , or when they cluster together , perhaps an impromptu autonomous festival , where the goods are all sold by friendly sensor-laden pods . Food trucks will never be the same again . Ride sharing is also possible in the model , which at its core is driven by , you guessed it , a cloud-based mobility service platform . Dominos and Ford have been working on autonomous pizza ... deliveries . If you thought the cashier-less Amazon Go retail stores were going to put the working class out of work for good , you have n't seen anything yet . Autonomy is good news for everyone that is n't a professional driver , and now anyone that ever sold goods locally . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a cloud-connected car if you ca n't get any reception round the back of Walmart ?

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'keep him out of training' involves an NP object 'him' and the prepositional phrase 'out of training', but 'training' is a noun, not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present in the sentence.

LONDON -- Arsene Wenger says new signing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang already reminds him of Thierry Henry , and has called on the striker to prove his greatness in the Premier League . Aubameyang became Arsenal 's record signing when he joined in a ? 56 million deal from Borussia Dortmund last week and it has n't taken long for the Gabon international to draw comparisons to the Gunners ' all-time record scorer . When asked which of his former strikers Aubameyang most reminds him of , Wenger said : " I would say Thierry Henry with his quality of runs . But it 's a bit too early to compare him to the best player ever who played here . He has played one game . But it 's a good example to follow . " Aubameyang scored with a delicately chipped finish in last weekend 's 5-1 win over Everton , making an instant impact despite having trained just once with the rest of the team ahead of the match . And , ahead of the North London derby against Tottenham at Wembley , Wenger warned that the forward will only get better as he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ came in on Tuesday last week and we still had to keep him out of training because he had still not recovered physically from his sickness . But yesterday he had a good session . He will be a bit sharper on Saturday than he was last week , " Wenger said . " His target is to have an impact in the Premier League because he knows that , today , to be acknowledged as a top class striker , you have to do it in the Premier League . That is one of his challenges , I think , by joining us . " Michael Regan/Getty Images Aubameyang has inherited the No. 14 shirt worn by Henry and also compared himself to the French legend after joining the club -- although he admitted he has a lot of work to do in order to follow in Henry 's footsteps . " It is an ambitious statement but it is a good one , the best goal scorer ever in Arsenal 's history , so it does n't mean he will be score as many @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ His finishing is good , you do n't score by coincidence for so many years . " If you play football , even in five-a-side , it is difficult to score goals so when the guys can repeat that at the top level they have that quality . Running-wise , yes , he is a good example to follow but Thierry came a bit more to the ball and participated more in the game . " Aubameyang has been one of Europe 's leading scorers for the past four years at Dortmund , and netted 79 goals in all competitions over the last two campaigns . Wenger tried to temper expectations . though , by pointing out that goals can be harder to come by in the Premier League . " What we have observed is that the transfer nowadays from the goals scored in other leagues does not necessarily transfer 100 percent to the English Premier League , " Wenger said . " When we played at Swansea a 3-1 defeat , we played against 10 men in the last 25 yards and that does n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Premier League is today much more difficult .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'keep him out of training' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'training' is a noun, not a verb in the -ing form, and the context does not suggest a causer-causee relationship with a prevention or movement interpretation.

Like Henry , Aubameyang has converted from an inconsistent winger into a more effective centre-forward , convincing the Gunners to pay Borussia Dortmund a club-record ? 56million to bring the 28-year-old to north London last month . Aubameyang marked his debut with a superbly taken goal in last Saturday 's 5-1 romp against Everton and he is expected to lead the line when Arsenal travel to Wembley this weekend to face Tottenham . The Gabon international has taken the club 's No.14 shirt made famous by Henry and cited him as a role model only last week . ( Getty Images ) Asked whether Aubameyang reminded him of any past players , Wenger said : " I would say Thierry Henry with his quality of runs . But it 's a bit too early to compare him to the best player ever who played here . He has played one game . But it 's a good example to follow . " His finish was brilliant . His finishing is good .

" It is an ambitious statement ( to follow Henry ) but it is a good one , the best goalscorer ever in Arsenal 's history , so it does n't mean he will score as many goals but why not ? " Wenger revealed that Aubameyang has still been struggling with an illness that forced him to train away from his new team-mates last week . " He was sick , " said Wenger . " He came in on Tuesday and we still had to keep him out of training because he had still not recovered physically from his sickness . " But on Wednesday he had a good session . He will be a bit sharper on Saturday than he was last week .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('force Spurs out of being the counter-attack team'). It involves a verb 'force' that fits the classification of exerting force or pressure (type b). The NP subject 'the strategy' is an inanimate force, and the NP object 'Spurs' is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. The interpretation is prevention ('prevent Spurs from being the counter-attack team'), which aligns with the transitive out of -ing construction's properties.

Harry Kane was famously told aged eight that he was no longer required by Arsenal . Yet in the last seven months alone , the club he left 16 years ago have spent around ? 102 ? million on two ? strikers who may never reach the ? levels of Tottenham Hotspur 's main man . A sobering thought for the team that were second best in this north London derby by some distance in terms of ? performance but were beaten by the slender margin of one Kane goal , his seventh in this , his seventh derby match . " A super striker who is one of the best in the world and he scores against everybody , " was the day 's most telling description of Kane , who had a magnificent game , and it was offered by Arsene Wenger in defence of his own players ' shortcomings against the Spurs striker . Kane symbolises the new Tottenham , still without a trophy in the ? Mauricio Pochettino era but a dynamic , high-pressing team who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ belief that they can compete against the best teams in Europe . Their record now stands at seven points in total from their games against Manchester United , Liverpool and ? Arsenal and this was as good as ? anything they produced at Wembley against United , dominating a second half during which they should have put Arsenal away . As it was , Wenger 's team were ? almost given an escape route in the closing stages when the substitute Alexandre Lacazette went through in the third minute of injury time and missed the target . Rattled for the first time , Mousa Dembele conceded a free-kick on the edge of the area and with ? practically the final kick of the game , Mesut Ozil , the best-paid player in the history of Arsenal , clipped his shot into the Spurs wall , which was no more than his side deserved . Wenger railed against what he saw as the missed opportunities of the first half with the highly debatable claim that Arsenal should have had the game won by the break . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at our level with the final ball , " he said . " In the second half we should have lost the game by more than one goal . We were destabilised by their goal and they had two or three opportunities . " The manner in which his team were dominated would have been of great concern , with scarcely any opportunity of note in the game for Pierre- ? Emerick Aubameyang , and with Henrikh Mkhitaryan substituted and Lacazette 's confidence betraying him at that final moment . Spurs had squeezed Arsenal relentlessly throughout , and there was no one in the away side with the influence to match that of Christian Eriksen , Dembele of the ? incomparable Kane . Their record now stands at seven points in total from their games against Manchester United , Liverpool and ? Arsenal and this was as good as ? anything they produced at Wembley against United , dominating a second half during which they should have put Arsenal away . Lacazette missed two huge chances to equalise late onCredit : REUTERS As it was , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the closing stages when the substitute Alexandre Lacazette went through in the third minute of injury time and missed the target . Rattled for the first time , Mousa Dembele conceded a free-kick on the edge of the area and with ? practically the final kick of the game , Mesut Ozil , the best-paid player in the history of Arsenal , clipped his shot into the Spurs wall , which was no more than his side deserved . Wenger railed against what he saw as the missed opportunities of the first half with the highly debatable claim that Arsenal should have had the game won by the break . " We missed opportunities on the counter-attack that are not missable at our level with the final ball , " he said . " In the second half we should have lost the game by more than one goal . We were destabilised by their goal and they had two or three opportunities . " The manner in which his team were dominated would have been of great concern , with scarcely any opportunity of note @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with Henrikh Mkhitaryan substituted and Lacazette 's confidence betraying him at that final moment . Spurs had squeezed Arsenal relentlessly throughout , and there was no one in the away side with the influence to match that of Christian Eriksen , Dembele of the ? incomparable Kane . As for Wenger , the picture as regards the Champions League is that much more grim after this , a defeat in a game he admitted Arsenal could not afford to lose . Asked whether the Europa League was the best route for his team back into the Champions League , Wenger said dolefully that it was " too early " to say . " Football is not about switching off for three games and switching it on for one game , " he said . " Manchester United decided that about the Europa League once they were in the semi- ? final but we are far from the semi-final . I think we have to fight to have a chance to come back . Overall it is a very disappointing result because the priority has to be to get @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " I am not a great fan of the Europa League being a qualifier for the Champions League because I think it is not right . If it is an opportunity we will have to try to take it but the priority is still the Premier League . " His team have won just three away games this season , against Crystal ? Palace , Everton and Burnley , and lost their last three in a row . It is early days yet for Aubameyang and Mkhitaryan but the newly-minted Ozil again looked less than the indispensable player his contract suggests he should be . The gap is seven points to Spurs , which is not unbridgeable but on this day it looked like a very long way indeed . " First half both teams have good energy , they were so compact , they tried to find the space and it was difficult to break down them . I think we dominate first half . Second half we had same shape but we were much better , moved the ball better and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the score should be 3-0 but in football if you do n't kill the games then you can concede some chances and suffer but I am so happy for three massive games , the performance was amazing . Kane 's our future . It 's amazing all he 's achieving and we are so proud he 's in our side . " The ex-defender has shredded the midfield organisation , pointing out how dreadful it was in the second half but the panel is now onto the January transfer window . Buying Jonny Evans may have made a difference but Arsenal 's problem is n't the centre-backs , it is the entire team 's approach to defending . Kane did n't score because Koscielny lost him , but because Davies was able to angle the exact ball needed to set up the header . Had Ozil closed down his man properly , that goal would n't have happened . " It was nice to score , I had a few headers int he game . I thought we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " I look forward to these games , it was a great performance by the team . We 're a fit squad and know if we keep playing chances will come . We had chances , they had a few chances , we 're really pleased with the win . " We had tough fixtures , United , Liverpool , Arsenal all in a row and we got seven points from them . Champions League now , we just need to keep the momentum going . I ca n't wait for Juventus . " What could Wenger have said to them at half time ? Spurs came out aggressive , enthusiastic , determined while Arsenal slithered to a start . They were caught dozing , lost every duel , were second to every challenge - Spurs were better in every department . OZIL HITS THE WALL ! Spurs win the North London Derby ! A deserved win too . They battered Arsenal for most of this one and Arsenal 's expensive flops missed golden chances at the end to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ones that Spurs missed too ! Spurs are without doubt the superior north London force in the modern day . OH MY GOD LACAZETTE IS IN ! BUT HE 'S MISSED FROM SIX YARDS ! The long through ball from Iwobi is amazing , it bypasses everyone and Lacazette is clean in behind every single defender . He only has the goalkeeper to beat and shoots wide . That is dreadful . Wenger ca n't believe it . I ca n't believe it . That 's a gift . LACAZETTTTTEEEEEEEEEEEE ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Oh dear . That was Arsenal 's one chance . They counter , Bellerin sends a beautiful ball into the area and Lacazette can line up his volley from 12 yards ... and puts it miles over the bar . Awful effort . He stares at the floor . That boy has n't looked quite right for a while now . Kane covers for Davies at left-back and buys a free-kick from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ completely in behind the Arsenal defence with one pass from deep - how on earth has that happened ? ! Lamela does n't even know what to do and ends up shooting wide but that is ... that should n't happen . Wilshere has been the best Arsenal player , except Cech today , and he has just nearly threaded Welbeck into a one-on-one chance to shoot in the Spurs box . The substitute is n't aware or alert and does n't control it - had he done so , that would have been a huge opportunity . Wenger has abandoned team shape and strategy now and thrown on Welbeck for Xhaka . That means they have three central strikers , an Iwobi , an Ozil and a Wilshere all on the pitch . Instructions : do the football , score them goals . Iwobi gives it away again ! He goes on a dribble towards Spurs players and runs into trouble , spreads play to the left but does n't put any conviction in the pass and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Wilshere is getting wound up . Lamela swipes at him with a lunging tackle - leaping into it - and is booked . What can Arsenal do to get back into this game ? Iwobi has been caught in possession a few times since coming on and done almost nothing of note . Not really an impact substitution ... What did Wenger even say to his players at half time ? They 've come out all soggy and pathetic . Spurs are winning every battle , every 50/50 , running more , tackling harder , passing better . And Cech has just made another brilliant save to keep it 1-0 ! Trippier is denied this time at the near post , though his shot is hit far too centrally and at waist height , giving the keeper a good chance of stopping it . OOOOOOCHA ! Mustafi passes inside to Cech , Alli closes him down and Cech passes back to Mustafi . BUT HE 'S PASSED IT STRAIGHT TO ALLI ! Luckily for him it 's out for a goal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And Alli is in again ! A defence splitting pass puts him one on one with Cech but he taps it wide of the goal . Oohhhhh my word he 's just missed a golden chance to make it 2-0 . You get the feeling Spurs are going to regret missing all these chance - I 'd love to know the expected goals figures for today . Son is n't on his game today . Spurs take advantage of sloppy Arsenal play and Alli passes wide to him on the edge of the area . He lines up a top corner smash but puts his foot way under the ball and it flies over the top of the stadium roof . Kane wins a header as Mustafi jumps for it like a salmon leaping out of water and flops to the floor .

SAVED BY LLORIS ! It 's a powerful effort to the top corner but Lloris reads it early . Aubameyang has gone wide left , Lacazette through the middle and Ozil wide right . Iwobi , Xhaka and Wilshere in midfield ? It 's probably a 4-2-3-1 . Lacazette has been caught offside because he 's busy doing his socks - what on earth has been doing on the subs bench for the last 65 minutes ? Put your football clothes on , pal . Eriksen fires a free-kick from wide left into the area , aiming it into a sea of bodies at speed . He wins a corner and sends that to the six yard box , but Cech heads clear .

Arsenal are being beaten to every single high ball . Arsene Wenger thinks Arsenal should have won a free-kick for Kane 's goal , with the striker appearing to nudge Koscielny in the back .

It must be ! ! ! ! But he strikes straight at Cech ! The rebound falls to Alli , he ca n't react in time . Neither can Son ... chance gone . Mkhitaryan wins a free-kick over on the left wing , Arsenal keep the ball but are put under heavy pressure from Spurs ' forward press . Cech has the ball AND KANE IS CLOSING HIM DOWN ! The goalkeeper has to stretch to quickly clear that away from the area just as it looked like he might get caught out . That was pretty good . There 's been a lack @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ far too excited when near the goal , but for the majority they 've cancelled each other out . One of those passes will work at some point and it very nearly did for Aubameyang earlier . On the pitch Son 's had a lot of the ball but Arsenal are closing him down quickly , giving Bellerin a hand . He needs it too . Arsenal are lacking a lot of width on that right side since Bellerin ca n't steam up the wing like he usually does , preoccupied by defending against Son . Spurs win a free-kick wide left about 30 yards out . Eriksen stands over it ... and it 's a good delivery . Kane attacks but Mustafi jumps and wins the header , then Arsenal win a throw . Arsenal counter quickly , Mkhitaryan bursts through the middle and plays a disguised pass out to Ozil on the right . He looks up and drifts the ball to the left towards Monreal but it slows the move down and Spurs get back . Sanchez is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mins Wenger may have told his players to knock the ball forward at every possible opportunity and take advantage of their pace upfront . There 's been very little tip-tap passing in the centre of the pitch and their sitting deep when out of possession , letting Spurs play with the ball and acting as the counter-attackers themselves . It 's like the strategy is to force Spurs out of being the counter-attack team since that is their strength . Mkhitaryan 's not found his touch today and ballooned another pass miles away from anyone . Eriksen gets on the ball on the left and drops a couple of yards away from the defenders into the half space . This is where he 's most effective and he whips a cross into the area ... and KANE IS THERE ! But he heads over from close range ! Huge chance missed for Spurs . It was difficult to get that ball on target with pace but Kane usually does much better with those . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is meant to keep Monreal back and is sort of working . It means that when Spurs concentrate play on one side of the pitch they can instantly switch to the other , something Barcelona used to do a lot under Guardiola. Son is causing problems on the left for Spurs - Bellerin does n't like him . He skips past a Wilshere challenge in the box , the kind that makes you think a penalty is on its way , and tries to get a cross low into the box . Arsenal clear . Trippier is finding loads of space on the right wing , making the team shape a weird sort of 3-3-3-1 in possession . Spurs have another corner , Arsenal have everyone in the area ... but Dier still gets a header on goal . Wide . Three defenders have surrounded him but do n't win the aerial challenge . Arsenal decide not to play out from the back and Cech launches a goal kick up the pitch . Spurs win it back immediately @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ... Son has space on the left ! The crowd rise to their feet , he takes his man on ... but has to go backwards . Spurs get forward and join in and a great ball out to Trippier sets up a cross . He whips towards the near post but it 's cleared . Spurs win a corner . Arsenal deal with it well and have a counter-attack on ! They have one Spurs defender to beat and three forwards chasing ... but the pass is poor . Mkhitaryan is then caught by Trippier . It 's a frantic start to the game . Both teams are a little excited and getting the ball forward too quickly , moving it when there is n't really an option . Son is hugging the left wing , Trippier the right , Arsenal dropping deep behind the ball early on . It 's almost football time . Wembley is rammed , the BT Sport cameras have just focused on a bunch of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ empty a stubborn bottle of ketchup ... and it 's Clive ! As we 've touched on , Arsenal need a bit of help in defence from time to time and Elneny 's role is something between a holding midfield player who recycles the ball and starts moves , and a half-back , dropping deep between the centre-backs as a sort of sweeper . Doing this gives Arsenal a back three and makes one of the attacking midfielder drop back into central midfield to give a bit of stability . Rio Ferdinand has just said that he reckons Jan Vertonghen is the best defender in the league and I 'd be inclined to agree with him . A solid defender , he 's also superb at taking the ball out from the back , going past players and spotting a pass - in his younger days he was often a left-back , which must have helped develop his sense of positioning and ability to go past players . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? Are you excited ? By Jove , I am . Quite how players get properly revved up at a time I 'm still enjoying a morning coffee is something for them to deal with but for us , the viewers , it 's sure to be an end-to-end battle . Spurs will make lots of little fouls to stop Arsenal counter-attacking , Arsenal need to be DRILLED into not sending too many players forward on the attack , as is their natural tendency . The reason for this is that Spurs will actively look for chances to hit them on the break ... and one player in particular will do a lot of damage if given the space . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'make a joke out of flicking an allergen', where 'flicking an allergen' is a gerund phrase but does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction's requirements for a causee or the specific interpretations (movement/extraction or prevention). The verb 'make' here does not fit the semantic classes of verbs typically used in the construction, and the object 'a joke' does not function as a causee.

There are concerns over ' food allergy bullying ' in the movie ( Picture : Columbia Pictures ) Food allergy advocacy groups have been angered by scenes in the new Peter Rabbit movie . Parents have also taken to Twitter to complain about a scene in the upcoming movie which sees a human suffering from a food allergy having the said food thrown at them . The rabbits intentionally attack the human to provoke a reaction , which causes the person to suffer anaphylaxis . ' An advisory notice was published on the Kids With Food Allergies Foundation Facebook page with a warning , and read : ' The new movie , Peter Rabbit , has a scene that may be disturbing to young viewers who have a food allergy . A character is intentionally attacked with his allergen , leading to anaphylaxis and the use of epinephrine . Parents should be aware of this before your children see the movie so you can talk with your child(ren) about it . Peter Rabbit has caused some controversy ( Picture : Columbia pictures ) ' KFA believes that food allergy " jokes " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ patients require the life-saving drug epinephrine and must go to the nearest hospital for follow-up treatment . The very real fear and anxiety that people experience during an allergic reaction ( often referred to as an impending sense of doom ) is a serious matter . It continued : ' Making light of this condition hurts our members because it encourages the public not to take the risk of allergic reactions seriously , and this cavalier attitude may make them act in ways that could put an allergic person in danger . ' We will keep you updated on our actions on this issue .. ' The message has since had over 1,800 comments and 10,000 shares . The movie stars Margot Robbie , Rose Byrne and Elizabeth Debicki . In an open letter to Sony , Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America president Kenneth Mendez wrote : ' The segment featured the intentional attack of the McGregor character with the food he is allergic to -- the implication being that the rabbits wanted to kill or harm McGregor with this method . ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , known as anaphylaxis , and treated himself with his epinephrine injection . Additionally , the segment makes light of the seriousness of food allergies and suggests that food allergies are ' made up for attention ' . ' The letter continues that food allergies are ' not a punchline ' . Australian group Global Anaphylaxis Awareness and Inclusivity ( Globalaai ) has also since created a petition calling for an apology . ' This mocks the seriousness of allergic disease and is heartbreakingly disrespectful to the families of those that have lost loved ones to anaphylaxis , ' it reads . So far it 's garnered 3,000 signatures . I am beyond upset with @sonypictures & the movie Peter Rabbit . The movie promotes bullying others with food allergies to the point where the main characters purposefully cause another to go into anaphylactic reaction !

The ever-growing demand for residential property in central Edinburgh has , unsurprisingly , made it an attractive investment proposition for residential property investors with the winning combination of relatively good value ( when compared to , for example , London ) , capital growth and an almost guaranteed rental income stream . This has resulted in homeowners retaining properties for longer , increasing numbers of professional landlords with property portfolios and overseas investment . This prompts the question , is the capital becoming a victim of its own success with local @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ There has been an unprecedented growth in the ' sharing economy ' for short-term residential property lets . The market-leading online platform Airbnb currently lists over 8,000 Edinburgh homes , with 60 per cent-plus being for the entire property . Both the UK and Scottish governments have been turning the spotlight on the tax treatment of buy-to-let properties . The property tax system is becoming increasingly pervasive as both governments seek to increase tax revenue , slow down the property market and encourage wider property ownership . Are these measures hitting their intended targets and taking any of the air out of the buoyant market ? Two of the most prominent property tax measures implemented in recent years have been the introduction in Scotland of the land and buildings transaction tax ( LBTT ) stamp duty land tax for the rest of the UK ' additional dwelling supplement ' ( ADS ) charge and restrictions on income tax relief for interest paid on borrowings of residential landlords . A 3 per cent ADS charge has applied since 1 April 2016 on the acquisition of ' additional @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 40,000 . The purchase of buy-to-let properties , holiday homes or student accommodation for children are all potentially caught by this charge , which is levied in addition to the normal rates of LBTT applied to the purchase price . There would , for example , be an additional ? 6,000 ADS charge on the purchase of a buy-to-let property for ? 200,000 where a family home is already owned . Professional landlords will now , at the very least , have to factor in this cost . Unfortunately , a number of first-time buyers will also find themselves being caught by the ADS charge where , for example , they have previously inherited a part-interest in a relative 's property , are the beneficiary of a family trust or simply as a result of their personal circumstances . It used to be the case that landlords could claim a full income tax deduction for allowable finance costs ( eg mortgage loan interest , arrangement fees , repayment fees , etc ) relating to buy-to-let residential property . The UK government introduced new rules with effect from 6 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ costs to the basic rate of income tax ( currently 20 per cent ) for landlords subject to the higher rates of income tax by 6 April 2021 . These new rules are being phased in over four years . This income tax relief restriction does not , however , apply to short-term furnished holiday lets ( ' FHL ' ) . In order to qualify , the FHL business must be carried on commercially , with a view to profit . It must be available for short-term commercial letting to the public as holiday accommodation , and it must actually be let for a certain number of days each tax year . Short-term lets promoted by the " sharing economy " may therefore become even more attractive to those relying upon borrowings to finance their residential property portfolios . It appears that recent property tax measures have so far failed to take the air out of the buoyant Edinburgh residential property market . Indeed , in certain cases the ever-changing property tax landscape could be seen to have made it more difficult and complex for first-time buyers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is a partner and director of tax services , Anderson Strathern |

The market-leading online platform Airbnb currently lists over 8,000 Edinburgh homes , with 60 per cent-plus being for the entire property . Both the UK and Scottish governments have been turning the spotlight on the tax treatment of buy-to-let properties . The property tax system is becoming increasingly pervasive as both governments seek to increase tax revenue , slow down the property market and encourage wider property ownership . Are these measures hitting their intended targets and taking any of the air out of the buoyant market ? Two of the most prominent property tax measures implemented in recent years have been the introduction in Scotland of the land and buildings transaction tax ( LBTT ) stamp duty land tax for the rest of the UK ' additional dwelling supplement ' ( ADS ) charge and restrictions on income tax relief for interest paid on borrowings of residential landlords . A 3 per cent ADS charge has applied since 1 April 2016 on the acquisition of ' additional @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 40,000 . The purchase of buy-to-let properties , holiday homes or student accommodation for children are all potentially caught by this charge , which is levied in addition to the normal rates of LBTT applied to the purchase price . There would , for example , be an additional ? 6,000 ADS charge on the purchase of a buy-to-let property for ? 200,000 where a family home is already owned . Professional landlords will now , at the very least , have to factor in this cost . Unfortunately , a number of first-time buyers will also find themselves being caught by the ADS charge where , for example , they have previously inherited a part-interest in a relative 's property , are the beneficiary of a family trust or simply as a result of their personal circumstances . It used to be the case that landlords could claim a full income tax deduction for allowable finance costs ( eg mortgage loan interest , arrangement fees , repayment fees , etc ) relating to buy-to-let residential property . The UK government introduced new rules with effect from 6 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ costs to the basic rate of income tax ( currently 20 per cent ) for landlords subject to the higher rates of income tax by 6 April 2021 . These new rules are being phased in over four years . This income tax relief restriction does not , however , apply to short-term furnished holiday lets ( ' FHL ' ) . In order to qualify , the FHL business must be carried on commercially , with a view to profit . It must be available for short-term commercial letting to the public as holiday accommodation , and it must actually be let for a certain number of days each tax year . Short-term lets promoted by the " sharing economy " may therefore become even more attractive to those relying upon borrowings to finance their residential property portfolios . It appears that recent property tax measures have so far failed to take the air out of the buoyant Edinburgh residential property market . Indeed , in certain cases the ever-changing property tax landscape could be seen to have made it more difficult and complex for first-time buyers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is a partner and director of tax services , Anderson Strathern |

Media caption " She 's the girl I wish I could have been when I was that age " " She does n't follow the pack . She 's very driven - she has a strong sense of self . " Saoirse Ronan is talking about Lady Bird , the character she plays in the film of the same name - but she might as well be talking about herself . It 's seen her win her third Oscar nomination , the first having come when she was just 13 , for Atonement . She 's already won the Golden Globe for best actress for the role , sweetly FaceTiming her mum from the audience so she could watch too . Lady Bird is Greta Gerwig 's directorial debut and has seen her become only the fifth woman nominated for a best director Oscar . It 's been almost universally praised for its realistic , but affectionate , look at the life of a teenager on the verge of leaving home and her relationship with her mother - and it 's also up for best film . No wonder then that Saoirse is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have been taken off and she 's sitting on the floor of a hotel suite , eating sushi . " Is it cold in here ? " she ponders , going over to the thermostat before settling back on the carpet . We talked to her about how Saved by the Bell was her inspiration for the role , why she wanted to change her own name - and why she 's like Beyonce . Image copyrightUniversalImage caption Saoirse as she appears in Lady Bird , set in 2002 in California Congratulations on the Oscar nomination . What attracted you to the role of Lady Bird ? Lady Bird is very much her own person . She does n't follow the pack . She 's very driven , she has a very strong sense of self . One of the things that 's unusual for female leads , especially in a film about a teenager , is that she believes in herself , you know ? Even if she does n't know what she wants to be or what it is she wants to say @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ She 's very committed to being herself . The film is made up of these little moments between a family and friends and within relationships . It 's set in a time for this young person , and for her family , where everything is moving a little faster than they 'd like - and they ca n't quite catch up with it . That 's just what the end of childhood is like . It 's gone before you can fully grasp what it was that happened . Image copyrightGetty ImagesImage caption Saoirse and Greta were ' giddy ' when they met for the first time How was that similar , or not , to what it was like being a teenager for you ? The insecurity she had and the hope she had - that feeling of needing to leave home in order to find yourself - was something I could really identify with and really relate to . And the need for a strong friendship to anchor you . When it came to the whole American high school experience - that was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had to draw from was Saved by the Bell and Sabrina the Teenage Witch - American high school shows . Image copyrightUniversalImage caption Lady Bird 's best friend at school is Julie , played by Beanie Feldstein The way the mother-daughter relationship is portrayed is really realistic . How did you approach it ? You 're watching two people that really love each other . There is a lot they share which is lovely and fun and it 's sort of being overwhelmed by the mother 's fear of change and the kid 's desperation to get out and have something new . They 're just missing each other , just by an inch . They just do n't get each other . It 's not that either one of them is necessarily out-and-out wrong , but they do n't understand how the other one could think in the way that they do . It only takes time and life and experience and moving away to understand the other one . More so for the kid , I think . Image copyrightUniversalImage caption Greta Gerwig @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ did your mum think of the film - and what your on-screen mum Laurie Metcalf was like ? She 's the one that I call at the end of the day . She knows everything that 's going on when I 'm shooting because she 's the one I speak to . She 's like my real-life person when I 'm doing that stuff . She was really struck by Laurie and how authentic she was as a mother . She 's not playing the movie mom or anything - she 's a real mother . The great thing about Laurie is that so many people would read a role like that and say , ' she 's unlikeable ' or ' she 's the villain ' . But Laurie knew that there was a goodness , there 's such a goodness there and it comes from such a good place . When I was younger , nobody had my name . Even in Ireland , some people had n't even heard of that name before . So for a while , I really did n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like everyone else - like Hannah , or Sarah . And then the older I got and the more sure I was of my personality and the kind of person I wanted to be , I was able to own it a little bit more . I get why musicians and people like that would take on a name in order to empower them . I think that 's what it can do . Lady Bird , was - for Greta and I - she 's like an alter ego a little bit . She 's like our Sasha Fierce - we 're Beyonce , obvs . You also hear about kids wanting to be called Spaceman or what was the one Phoebe had in Friends - Princess Consuela Banana Hammock ? She cracks up laughing at this point I was a really , really huge fan of hers . Getting to meet her was a bit surreal for a second , because I love Frances Ha which Gerwig appeared in so much . It actually does n't happen to me often with actors . But @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ me feel the butterflies and Greta is one of those people . We met over a Skype call and we were just so giddy around each other . I hope we get to work together again and again , I can just see us properly collaborating .

The sentence 'Doug Jones has made a career out of playing movie monsters.' does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction. The verb 'made' is transitive and takes an NP object 'a career', but the NP object 'a career' does not function as a causee, and the sentence does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes how Doug Jones has built his career, which is not the intended meaning of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The UK is at risk of letting the " major industrial shift " posed by the take-up of electric vehicles pass it by as Brexit negotiations draw the government 's focus , according to the chair of the new All-Party Parliamentary Group ( APPG ) on electric and autonomous vehicles . Dame Cheryl Gillan MP , the former secretary of state for Wales , will lead the group to increase awareness of the benefits and opportunities of EVs amongst MPs . Gillan said : " It is imperative that parliamentarians are aware of the rapid pace of change in the electric and automated vehicle sectors and that post-Brexit the UK is well positioned to benefit from these new technologies .

In July , business secretary Greg Clark has unveiled the first phase of a ? 246 million investment in battery technology for EVs with the launch of the Faraday Challenge to reflect the growing private investment by auto manufacturers in electrification . The likes of Ford , VW , Jaguar Land Rover , and BMW all plan to invest billions of pounds globally into new battery and electric vehicle research while Nissan , which assembles its popular LEAF in Sunderland , plans to double sales of its new model in the next year .

" The big piece that we see the APPG contributing is pressure for government to come up with some sort of coordinated charging strategy . We 've challenged Treasury , Department for Transport , we 've challenged various different quangos as you might call them and there 's no one co-ordinated body that 's thinking about this . " There 's limited discussion across government of how we are going to operate if nobody 's thinking about what 's going to happen ...

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('she managed to talk him out of killing her'). It involves an animate NP subject ('she') performing the action denoted by the V1 predicate ('talk') on the NP object ('him'), which functions as a causee. The interpretation is prevention ('she prevented him from killing her'), which aligns with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('she') + V1 ('talked') + NP object ('him') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('killing her'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the subject prevents the object from performing the action described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. The verb 'talk' is classified under the means of verbal persuasion, which is one of the categories of verbs that can appear in the V1 slot of the construction. The NP object 'him' functions as a causee, and the sentence clearly conveys a prevention interpretation, making it a valid instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('trying to talk them out of having flu'). It implies a prevention interpretation, where the subject is attempting to prevent the object from experiencing the flu. The verb 'talk' fits into the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot, specifically under 'By means of enticing, flattering, or verbal persuasion'. The NP object 'them' functions as a causee, and the sentence allows for a prevention interpretation, making it an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

TECHNO pop-pioneer Gary Numan and his Tubeway Army appeared on the scene during the 1970s . Painfully shy and suffering a bad bout of acne , 20-year-old Numan , seemed an unlikely star . Initial reaction was negative with critics slating his music and dubbing his performance ' wooden ' . But , in a music industry hungry for change , his distinctive voice , unique sound and android-like persona whetted an appetite that soon earned him a cult following . Taking time out from his busy schedule ahead of gigs in Belfast and Dublin next month , Numan reminisces about the highs and lows of fame . " I did n't set out to be a pioneer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's cool that I was there , right at the beginning of what turned out to be something pretty special . At the time I 'd no idea where it would lead . I was experimenting with sounds and trying to write good songs . Of course , not everyone appreciated or liked what I was doing and I attracted a lot of criticism . " Some of the worst hostility came from the Musician 's Union , who did n't consider my work ' real music ' and threatened to ban me . It was ridiculous . I found it really stressful because without membership I would n't have been able to appear on television . The lack of media exposure could have had serious consequences on my career . " In 1979 , Tubeway Army 's single Are Friends Electric , as well as its parent album , Replicas , reached number one in the charts . A few months later Cars went to the top of the charts in both the UK and Canada . It did n't reach the same premier position in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The following year , Numan included Cars , now considered his most enduring song , in his album The Pleasure Principle . Over the decades , he 's enjoyed his fair share of success but the journey has n't always been via the scenic route . " Unless you 've actually suffered depression , it 's impossible to understand how it feels , " he says , turning the conversation toward more painful memories . " I mean it 's no good telling someone to cheer up . That 's like trying to talk them out of having flu . The worst thing about depression is that it 's often contagious . It spreads out , to include everyone around you , especially the family . " Married for 26 years , his conversation is peppered with affectionate references to his wife Gemma whom he describes as his " buffer " . " We 're very close and work well together . But we 've certainly had some tough times , " he says . " Depression is bad enough when one partner is suffering but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , only the strongest relationship can survive . " At one point , we were under a lot of emotional stress . We spent seven years trying for a child . We also had to deal with the trauma of losing our baby . Then Gemma was struggling with postnatal depression . Just when it seemed things could n't get worse , I also fell into a black hole of depression . It can be hard to see anything good when you 're in that state and arguments flare up out of nowhere . " It 's easy to dwell on the negativity but I think one of the best coping mechanisms is to write down what you like about your other half .

Reasoning
×
The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('trying to talk them out of having flu'). It involves a prevention interpretation, where the subject is attempting to prevent the object from 'having flu'. The verb 'talk' fits into the category of means by enticing, flattering, or verbal persuasion. The NP object 'them' functions as a causee, and the sentence allows for a prevention interpretation, making it an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

TECHNO pop-pioneer Gary Numan and his Tubeway Army appeared on the scene during the 1970s . Painfully shy and suffering a bad bout of acne , 20-year-old Numan , seemed an unlikely star . Initial reaction was negative with critics slating his music and dubbing his performance ' wooden ' . But , in a music industry hungry for change , his distinctive voice , unique sound and android-like persona whetted an appetite that soon earned him a cult following . Taking time out from his busy schedule ahead of gigs in Belfast and Dublin next month , Numan reminisces about the highs and lows of fame . " I did n't set out to be a pioneer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's cool that I was there , right at the beginning of what turned out to be something pretty special . At the time I 'd no idea where it would lead . I was experimenting with sounds and trying to write good songs . Of course , not everyone appreciated or liked what I was doing and I attracted a lot of criticism . " Some of the worst hostility came from the Musician 's Union , who did n't consider my work ' real music ' and threatened to ban me . It was ridiculous . I found it really stressful because without membership I would n't have been able to appear on television . The lack of media exposure could have had serious consequences on my career . " In 1979 , Tubeway Army 's single Are Friends Electric , as well as its parent album , Replicas , reached number one in the charts . A few months later Cars went to the top of the charts in both the UK and Canada . It did n't reach the same premier position in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The following year , Numan included Cars , now considered his most enduring song , in his album The Pleasure Principle . Over the decades , he 's enjoyed his fair share of success but the journey has n't always been via the scenic route . " Unless you 've actually suffered depression , it 's impossible to understand how it feels , " he says , turning the conversation toward more painful memories . " I mean it 's no good telling someone to cheer up . That 's like trying to talk them out of having flu . The worst thing about depression is that it 's often contagious . It spreads out , to include everyone around you , especially the family . " Married for 26 years , his conversation is peppered with affectionate references to his wife Gemma whom he describes as his " buffer " . " We 're very close and work well together . But we 've certainly had some tough times , " he says . " Depression is bad enough when one partner is suffering but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , only the strongest relationship can survive . " At one point , we were under a lot of emotional stress . We spent seven years trying for a child . We also had to deal with the trauma of losing our baby . Then Gemma was struggling with postnatal depression . Just when it seemed things could n't get worse , I also fell into a black hole of depression . It can be hard to see anything good when you 're in that state and arguments flare up out of nowhere . " It 's easy to dwell on the negativity but I think one of the best coping mechanisms is to write down what you like about your other half . Remember all the lovely things that made you fall in love with them . If you can get back to that point , you 'll be all right . " After several rounds of IVF , the couple finally became parents .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'get out of fighting' which is an intransitive use of 'get' with no NP object, and 'pressures his commander into murdering an innocent' does not involve the 'out of -ing' construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'locked out of buying a home' suggests a prevention interpretation, but the verb 'locked' does not fit the semantic classes of verbs typically used in the construction (e.g., deception, force, persuasion). Additionally, the subject 'young mid-earners' is not a causer but rather the affected party, which does not align with the construction's requirements.

Home ownership remains an aspiration for the capital 's hardworking young people ( Source : Getty ) Emily Horton , Marc Vlessing Should we prioritise reforming the rental sector for young people over promoting home ownership ? The housing market is broken . Property has become a form of currency and has lost its original utility to actually house people . Retirement funds , social care fees , inheritance and profit are all now motives to buy . But in the race to secure future peace of mind , present practicalities have been mutilated : young mid-earners are now locked out of buying a home . Compared to the security of a mortgage , rent feels like money down the drain , but the cruel Catch 22 is that most young people will never be able to own property , leaving them stuck in an unworkable rental sector . Attempts to get them onto the housing ladder with demand-side reforms @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pipedream must be found . Rents must be reduced and tenancies made more secure , so young people can afford to put more into their pension funds and other investment pots . This will reassure them that their futures are protected , without relying on the Thatcherite delusion of home ownership . Home ownership remains an aspiration for the capital 's hardworking young people on middle incomes , because they ca n't trust the rental market to remain affordable and secure in the long term . We should n't close the door on that dream and deny them the opportunities that generations before have been granted . The economic , social and cultural prosperity of London depends on this group . They make the city tick and we must make home ownership a priority for them -- right now , huge swathes are prevented from accessing a secure home , whether for rent or for sale .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate.

GIVEN the strategic importance of high-speed rail to the North of England 's future economy , this was a missed opportunity for the Prime Minister to seize the initiative over the crucial issue of the North 's transport infrastructure . Speaking exclusively to The Yorkshire Post , Theresa May stopped short of saying transport bosses here should be given the same powers as their London counterparts , though she insisted the Government remains committed to funding major infrastructure projects , saying it was providing " the biggest investment in transport in the North for a generation . " It remains unclear exactly how far this commitment will go . It was only last month that a draft 30-year vision was proposed aimed at overhauling the region 's creaking road and rail network . However , when asked what assurances she could give that the transport vision will actually be delivered , Mrs May said yesterday that Transport for the North ( TfN ) was still " taking views " on this grand " vision . " It 's a far cry from November when the North became the first region in the country to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? 260m of funding . This landmark announcement appeared to signal an end to the mixed messages coming out of Downing Street that were stalling progress and inject some much-needed impetus into the northern transport agenda . At the time , Jim O'Neill , one of the leading architects of the Northern Powerhouse project and a former Treasury Minister , said it was crucial that TfN should be on an equal footing with the capital when it comes to funding powers . This , though , has yet to happen . All of which may well leave Yorkshire 's beleaguered commuters wondering exactly what will end up being delivered . What is needed now is action rather than words . |

While it is n't possible to be completely accurate , every effort has been made to get as close as possible to the most likely figure . In some cases , well-known names have been entirely self-funded , whereas others have received huge levels of backing from investors . The list , in order of the amount of financial backing received , is as follows : 1 ) Purplebricks : ? 97m Purplebricks raised ? 22m ahead of its IPO 2015 , ? 25m at its IPO , and a further ? 50m through an issue of new shares in 2017 . A spokesman for Purplebricks said : " As @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ debt , following cash reducing ? 6.9m in the half -- which broadly matches US start-up losses . So all in all the company has raised ? 97m for a business which is today valued at ? 1.1bn . " 2 ) Yopa : ? 58.6m Yopa won the backing of Grosvenor Hill Ventures , the investment arm of Savills , when it was just six months old , with ? 16m in funding . It raised ? 15m from investors including Daily Mail and General Trust ( DMGT ) and Grosvenor Hill Ventures in May 2017 . That was followed by another ? 27.6m in September 2017 , of which ? 20m was from LSL Property Services and a further ? 7.6m was from DMGT ( the Daily Mail ) . 3 ) HouseSimple : ? 33m HouseSimple , launched in 2015 by Alex and Sophie Gosling , raised ? 13m in a funding round led by Carphone Warehouse founder Sir Charles Dunstone and his business partner Roger Taylor via Toscafund Asset Management and Freston Ventures . That was followed in December 2017 by another ? 20m @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ started with a ? 1.4m round of crowdfunding in 2014 , followed by a ? 9.75m share placement in September 2014 . A third round of funding in 2015 saw it raise another ? 16m from Toscafund prior to its merger with GPEA . 5 ) Emoov : ? 16m Emoov has raised ? 16m over four rounds of funding , including ? 1.95m in 2014 , ? 1.5m in January 2015 , ? 2.6m in October 2015 , ? 50,000 in December 2016 and ? 9m in August 2017 from venture capitalists . 6 ) EweMove : ? 9m EweMove was self-funded by its founders until Property Franchise bought it for ? 15m of which ? 8m was upfront and ? 7m deferred subsequently re-negotiated to a total of ? 9m , which has now been fully paid up . 7 ) House Network : ? 5m House Network , founded in 2004 by current CEO Mark Readings , grew organically and received only low levels of funding until a 2017 cash injection of ? 5m from private investors . It aims to break even within @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Settled has raised ? 2.4m , including around ? 150,000 in seed funding in November 2014 , followed by ? 1m in July 2016 and then another ? 1.2m in June 2017 from venture capitalists Connect Ventures and Piton Capital . 9 ) Sellmyhome : ? 1m Sellmyhome has raised ? 1m . Director Will Clark said : " MyHomeGroup -- ( SellMyHome & RentMyHome ) is privately owned and has grown revenues in excess of 200% year on year over the last three years . " We are focused on building a brand known for premium customer service and benefit greatly from our natural brand recognition . " To date we have received around ? 1m investment and the business has yet to receive external funding . " 10 ) Doorsteps.co.uk : ? 507,000 Akshay Ruparelia , who founded Doorsteps last year while still at school , initially raised ? 7,000 from family followed by ? 500,000 on crowdfunding platform Crowdcube last summer . The largest private investor in that round was Julian Mylchreest , a senior managing director of Bank of America Merrill @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it 's an easy commodity led business where cheap wins the day . Luckily it 's not that simple and a lot harder then flogging a few phones in a price fixed retail industry or cheap flights cos daddy bought you a few planes . The time to worry about serious competition is when they start buying small local agencies and use the leverage of their software to close deals -- though how many people move say from Cornwall to Essex ... My granddaughter has a balloon which , whatever she 's done , she has failed to burst ... Maybe there is a lesson there ? This list is a reflection now on how businesses with " potential " get started , why risk your own money when you can risk someone elses . The most embarrassing company here is Easy Property who have made zero dent on in the market , no member of the public has heard of them , and according to Zoopla have something like 96 properties on the market ! I 'd be extremely interested to know how many properties have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not listed and then having a ' proper/full service/traditional ' agent step in and deliver a ' move ' for the punter that has paid up front and therefore paid again . It took Jefferies 14 months to come up with a % that differed from my approximations by just 0.04% for one month 's data for one agent . By the time all of the data manipulations for all agency types are disregarded and it is reasonably safe to use 4% of all completions as a rule of thumb for quick calculations for use in the debates on Eye There really is no practical way of calculating accurate numbers so a close approx has to do . Is this another bubble that is going to burst or just simply run out of funding and momentum ? Lastminute.com was worth ? 760m when it floated but then was sold a decade later after failing to deliver what was hoped for , for a relatively paltry ? 75m . Made a few people a few quid no doubt but cost a load more people a few quid I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ emerges and evolves . Sound familiar ? So overall we have a ' less service ' model , with every completed sale subsidised on average by ? 2,400 ( investors money and fees from not sold properties ) .... which is more than our average fee for a Full Service model . How can a less efficient model possibly be considered as being disruptive ! ! ! The negative comments are short sighted & show a lack of commercial awareness , plenty of start up companies in their embryonic stages spend more than they make . The market is ready to be disrupted & as someone who scoffed at Purplebricks four years ago I wo n't make the same mistake twice . Also . When u buy a book on Amazon you have n't got 3 local book shops warning you that it 's all smoke an mirrors and u may not even get your book delivered . Tbf Iam probably the best estate agent in Britain but because I tell the truth I ca n't expand . That 's the real killer for honest entrepreneurs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ & fixed fee/commission is man-made marketing rubbish . At the end of the day its about selling properties with a service customers love . Could be based in Antarctica with people on the road . You still get travel agents on the high street , you get them online . The most successful agents over time are those that merge the high street and online market into one . That focus on service and outcome . I personally take the view no , sale , no fee is better as reality is customers do n't understand the probability risks of selling and fixed fees do encourage companies to focus on listings rather than sales , especially when repeat business in estate agency is not like repeat business in ordering cabs or food like with uber and deliveroo . The justification of a high-street presence should be foot-fall , not necessarily the service itself being managed from there . Shop fronts are marketing billboards , where prospects can choose to engage with property experts if needed . Apple have apple-stores based on footfall , Salisbury 's have supermarkets based @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Neither are known as online supermarkets or online tech providers . in the same way the justification of tv ads should be the same , based not on footfall but on viewership that lead to customers . >Apple have apple-stores based on footfall , Salisbury 's have supermarkets based on footfall , you can still buy through them online . Neither are known as online supermarkets or online tech providers . ValueCounts31 , In the case of a visit to the Estate Agents you do n't actually get to see the property you are buying . I have n't actually used an online supermarket for a while but when I did they always turned up with something missing ( out of stock ) so you paid more and ended up having to go to the shops anyway . Some crucial differences there I think with Apple & Supermarkets . I suppose your best example is Travel Agents . They are still on the High Street but I 'm not sure many of them provide an online service . My general point is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and attainable to as much of the market as possible . Online or Local makes no difference . Some customers may want to walk into a high street outlet and talk to a professional . Some will want someone to visit them at home and discuss . Some may be happy liaising with someone over the phone and even some may be happy to commit to using an agent with purely online contact . There is no reason why one organisation ca n't do all the above . The justification for each must be a commercial one . E.g. a high street presence in a certain area is worthwhile , because there is a big enough footfall of potential customers seeing it , engaging with it and ultimately converting into customers . OR this high street presence is n't worthwhile because there is no footfall , no engagement and no conversion to customers . E.g. we believe there is a portion of the UK market that would rather us make contact via a visit to them direct at home or conversations over the phone or online @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of which that require no high street presence to make possible ) . It makes sense for us to spend on these TV ads , or these online ads or these radio ads to educate prospects of our existence -- because there is no high street presence to advertise this -- and facilitate the format of our service that they may prefer . The difference is accountability , I loathe online only for anything important , if my Amazon package does n't arrive I 'm put out , if my credit card is used by somebody other than myself I loathe that I am ' a valued customer and number 16 in the queue ' off shore service hubs got killed for a reason , the amount of times I 've advised a client using a local lawyer to go and sit in their reception till it 's sorted because that focuses attention , hubs do not and will not give a rats **** and never will , nobody accountable nobody cares and everybody 's been paid already , most vendors are not sophisticated in moving and need a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of that from pay up front Is n't that what the high street agents has been doing for two decades ... high street and on-line ! It is the so called hybrids , which is itself not correct as they " only do on-line " . So they do less , have less presence , marketing outlets and sales . World of difference between marketing and selling , PB have proved adept at marketing themselves but I 'm struggling to think of anything innovative otherwise , booking viewings at 11.00pm for 10.00am the next morning ? Whoopy Doo , can just picture that vendor loving that ' special service ' Even that is not innovative , been around for years . To be fair PB were the first to bring it to the public 's attention . Many agents now have this tech . PB is a fantastic company at marketing themselves as you point out . They are not fantastic value for sellers . 50% of their customers loose over a ? 1000 a question mark hangs over the 50% that do sell , have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the only people who lose their fee are those who go on to sell with another agent and in that case they may very well have received a discount for switching . So it is misleading to say that 50% lose their fee but i suppose you know that . Of course , on average , even using your incorrect figure of 50% , PurpleBricks are better value than an Estate Agent who charges a commission in the region of 1.2% . For those that have more valuable properties the value is even greater . I 'm not going to debate this , I just thought I 'd post for purposes of balance ? ? cyberduck46 ... so , where in the PB Small/Legal Print does it say that ? " if we fail to sell your property and you switch to a real Estate Agent you will receive a partial refund of the up-front fee that you originally paid " . I also think it 's time that the Purplebricks Ads/Marketing came with a Wealth Warning ... " WARNING , You have a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , you have paid us 100% up-front ! " You will not debate it as you know you will lose . You do this time and again . you try and shout somebody down . They come back and show your points are invalid and you run away . How long should they give PB to sell their property ? -- If we do not sell a property within 12 weeks ( 3 months ) sellers get upset . We are no sale no fee . So how do you think a seller feels parting with ? 900 up front or ? 1250 differed and they are still not sold after 10 months ? -- So yes it is reasonable they change agent and they lose the ( on average ) ? 1000 Surely after say 6 months the agent has shown they are not the right agent to sell the property . And lets be honest the only selling they do is listing it on RM . PB booking system also does not let you book a valuation unless you disclose how much @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ commission only individual then going round to the property knowing what the seller wants . Is it unreasonable to think they maybe add on a few thousand to win the instruction ? -- They are then locked into a contract which they must pay even if the price was inflated by the agent . As for the fee saving possibly in the South East and London but try Newcastle , average house price is below ? 200,000 in some areas , Agents will drop below 1% If You go with PB with a board , a viewing assistant etc you are paying close to 2k . You are right on one point its only 49% that lose their money not 50% I am sure you will not debate as you point out but as you like balance so much i thought best to post . What figure should he be using ? 44.36% as it is now or the total number of sstc properties divided by the number that are for sale to give 79.72% a number close to the latest CEOs ' claims of 78% @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ can suddenly exchange contracts on a greater percentage of properties than it 's had under offer , sale agreed , sold subject to contract or sold by another agent . It should be noted changing the status backwards and forwards from For Sale to Under Offer does n't actually make the number of properties sold any higher >A property listed in November 2016 still for sale , is that the sign of a good agent ? It is proof that you are misleading people when you claim " 50% of their customers loose over a ? 1000 " . You have admitted to using Jefferies numbers and you 've twisted what they reported to state that everybody who has n't sold yet has lost over ? 1000 . This is misleading . Jefferies reported that 51.9% had sold within a given time . That 's not the same thing as saying 48.1% have lost over ? 1000 . There are people still marketing with PurpleBricks , people on a marketing break , people who have completed but the property is n't yet registered at the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that need to be added to the 51.9% figure ( assuming the approximation is anywhere near accurate in the first place ) . For a better idea of who has lost money take a look at https : **39;79;TOOLONG ... You will see they split listed properties into 4 categories . The only ones you could claim have lost any money are the ones in the yellow part of the graphs who are ones who have listed with another agent , which in the case of PurpleBricks is about 10% of their customers . If you provided your name , smile please , members of the public would be able to complain to Advertising Standards as you are clearly misleading people and can not substantiate your claims . Any vendor who has n't achieved a sale with Purple Bricks in 10 months are going to want to increase their chances of a sale regardless of cost . ( Cost of ; upfront fee / lost dreams / their sanity / a fear of ones ability to make intelligent decisions etc ) Staying with PB purely because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the ONLY compelling reason to do so . You say that redemption is promised to them by PB at the low price of the surrender of their critical faculties and stay with a service that has so far failed , till they are sold . In reality , vendors have to either forfeit and walk or sign up with another agent on a multi agency agreement . Therefore , Purple Bricks attempt to free vendors from such a terrible fee situation appears to have done the opposite for 100% of vendors for 50% of the time . Interestingly , the same odds as getting a USB connection in the right way up in the dark . I have researched several samples of listings from PurpleBricks and can confirm that properties still continue to complete after the 10 month period and also after the 1 year period . I looked at one sample from 30th March 2016 and when I first checked on 3/4/17 16 of the 24 were sold ( completed ) and registered at the Land Registry . When I checked back again on 3/2/18 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Land Registry ( 20 in my opinion by PurpleBricks ) . In fact just checking again , I can see that the completion date of ones that went on to completion that I did n't detect on my first check actually completed prior to my check so one of the issues is the delay from completion to registration . For example one of them completed on 21/2/17 and another on 31/3/17 . Feel free to check out the sample : I 'm sorry but I doubt I have time to come back and reply again . Other things to do . Do your own research . Beware listening to people with a vested interest . For the record . I am not a shareholder in PurpleBricks but have been in the past and retain an interest . Estate agency is n't about selling a property ' eventually ' it 's about selling a property in a time frame that suits the vendor and takes into consideration what , if anything , they 're hoping to buy . Selling 10 -20% below listing price 10 +months later @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 're now advocating ' bear with us , it will go eventually , ca n't say when but we 're doing our best " you 're describing a listing service not estate agency . It 's unreasonable to compare the cost of a listing service with estate agency . The value of 10 months market shift is about 5.72% , that 's average worth around ? 16,000 I 'm not sure making a strap-line " save thousands to lose loads more thousands " is a case worth proving It depends which data you look at . Spoon feed a listing rep with rubbish and that is where the problems begin . If it 's the same rubbish as been fed to the vendor that is where passive intermediary listing services and full obligation estate agency interface . If you had been trading up rather than down your experience would have been very different indeed as it is the methodology of your sale that meant you got a price you got a sale but you did n't achieve a demand driven competitive sale , your sale was purely @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 99 rather than what you did . I will take your swerve of the point as agreement of the point . Those who do n't sell in good time with PB are hit with a lifetime , imaginary sole agency contract on the basis that it would be money down the drain if they walk away from PB . According to you , " ... the wrong type of customer is being drawn to PurpleBricks . " I disagree . PB has attracted the types of customers that suit the PB model . Elsewhere those who can see through the charade are heeding your own advice , " Beware listening to people with a vested interest " Your remarks are marketing gold should your " retained interest " be that you are a Purple Bricks LPE . No , you ca n't assume agreement . I wo n't speculate as to what a lister with PB was thinking when they listed their property . For me , it 's the ideal way to market a property if you do n't trust traditional agents . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sale with Purple Bricks in 10 months are going to want to increase their chances of a sale regardless of cost . " . That has been shown to be wrong . >Your remarks are marketing gold should your " retained interest " be that you are a Purple Bricks LPE . No , not one of them either . Ask Robert May , Chris Wood & PeeBee . They all know who I am . If you research all of their posts on EYE over 4 years you will find enough clues to work it out , I did ! ! ! The beauty of writing a system that makes advanced , site specific , veracious search simple is it 's possible to have apparent Rainman recall . There is no sales speak , I have always been honest it 's advanced internet searching but I made that available to people who did n't know advance search existed or how to do it . You want to find out who smile please is so you can attempt to troll or discredit him or her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out who they are . I ca n't be bothered checking all his posts but one that did what his name requests i.e. made me smile , and which I had already bookmarked is where he claims " If Neil Woodford makes a " Profit " on this investment I will be more than surprised . " . This was when he invested ? 7m for a 30% stake . Current value over ? 350M Thanks Cyberduck46 , once again clearing it up for us mere mortals . 1 ) Purple Bricks take money upfront to list property and they take it upfront from disillusioned home owners who do nt trust estate agents . I guess Purple Bricks LPEs are cleansed of your untrustworthiness by renaming them " experienced agents " . 2 ) Vendors who havent sold after 10 months have no interest in increasing their chances of a sale and it would be wrong to assume that they do . Said no vendor ever . Who am I ? Who I am is complicated , what I am is a little easier . Google it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Teddy : What we will not tolerate is ... getting nothing for our money : no information , no protection ... no assurances . You understand , Little Johnny ? " But they 're not even a fantastic company at marketing themselves , they use brewsters millions to employ companies that are built to do that job and sink or swim in their own industry , I 'm sure the purple bricks account is the star of India , leeches the whole lot of ' em I took great delight helping one of my staff buy a house which Purplebricks were marketing . That 's the great thing for buyers , Purplebricks have got their money from the seller so the actual sale of the client 's property is meaningless to them ! Anyway , I advised we go in well below the asking price ( Offers Over in Scotland generally means you pay in excess of the Offers Over price ) , with the clear thought that Purplebricks would urge their client to accept the offer . Sure enough , Purplebricks were back on the phone @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Phil to submit a daft offer . In my experience , if you want to buy cheap , buy through Purplebricks . If you want to sell your home for the best price use a full service High Street Estate Agent who who charges for success -- No Sale , No Fee .... it 's a No Brainer . CD46 whichever which way we phrase or interpret this conversation online , and for any casual viewer of this site without skin in the game , in the real world PB are woeful for those of us trying to get people moved , truly woeful , just as those of us who do this daily used to shudder initially when the lawyer was cpl but they 're still here and I 'm sure PB will endure and we 'll endure them too , but as someone not bothered about share price , H2 , small print or analysts I can assure you that barring individual bright spots with their LPE 's overall they are rubbish structurally in helping people move , the hub model is impersonal and unhelpful because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is all that matters in a hub Cyberduck -- the problem being my member of staff made an offer well below the asking price which PB did n't bother to negotiate ? Let me state that again for you " did n't bother to negotiate ! " . It 's the principle point of a real Estate Agent , to act in their client 's best interests ! PB were lazy , not motivated , could n't be *rsed because they have already been paid ? ..... they clearly did n't give a t*ss . The result reads like this .... Buyer Won , Seller Lost , Purplebricks failed . I negotiated just short of ? 10,000 more for a client of mine today in Scotland . The buyer offered just short of ? 10,000 below the Fixed Price which my Seller would have bitten their hand off for ! ....... however , the gritty old estate agent did their job and delivered the best price for their client , ? 9,950 more ! For clarity , I 'm NOT motivated by the small matter of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that I DO my Job ! Substitute Purplebricks for me and I 'm pretty safe in assuming , having already pocketed their Fee , they would have recommended that the Vendor does n't lose the offer , instead loses ? 9,950 ! .... to be equally fair that would most likely apply to most upfront fee Listers ! Anyway , Purplebricks is summed up thus , in my humble opinion " Purplebricks -- 50% chance for 100% cost ! " . In contrast I charge a fee when I actually deliver the 100% result ! I hold the opinion that choice is king and punters are entitled to that choice . Whether or not you like the pay anyway approach it does provide choice . Based on my experience recently with a couple of traditional agents I can see why some punters see the risk v reward as worth it . Example : I registered to view two houses last week with a multi branch independent in the midlands . They did not ask if I had a house to sell or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be moved , simply booked them in . The agent met us to show us around and while looking at the second one I asked him about another property they had on in the village . He denied they had one on that road , I pointed out they had a board outside it which then jogged his memory . He could n't tell me anything about it only offer me a viewing if I wanted to . This was all on Saturday and I have not heard from the agent to follow up and provide their vendor with any feedback or attempt to close me for a viewing on the other property . I have been in the industry for 15 years and have seen an embarrassing dilution of good effective estate agency in that time so is it any wonder that some members of the public question what they are getting for their 1% + Vat or more . Sadly ARC your experience is no surprise to anyone who has been in the business a while . There are some dreadful agents out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I agree about giving punters a choice . But unless those punters are made aware of the benefits and risks of their choices they can not make an informed decision . You can take your own appendix out if you want but usually it 's a better choice to have a qualified and competent surgeon do it for you . I have a member of staff like that bud , she 's got to learn somehow and hopefully she 'll make it but if not good luck with whatever she does elsewhere , difference is we 'll prune where necessary because we 're not sucking on a golden teat At the end of the day , the no sale still pay meddlers are offering a service ( or not ) to those that may have tried to sell privately in the local newspaper 10 to 20 years ago . There were always 40 pages of agents and 2 pages of private sellers in my area , and that equation is still the same today with on-liners taking only 5% of the market even after spending zillions . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that happens we are all dead in the water I am afraid , until then , let them splash the cash , seemingly they are not getting very far ( except up our noses ) . It may well be a long time coming . However , building societies now do desk top valuations . Straight forward on-line conveyancing with indemnity policies to cover the process might be the first step . Who knows . They came out of the box marketed as a new breed of race horse , the bookies ranked them to be an odds on favourite while they were still yearlings and no track performance ! The reality , they are all old nags dressed up to look like a new breed , running the same mile with a handicap of limited performance that they have tried to hide . The promoters are happy taking the money while the syndicates get nothing in return and the jockey keeps flogging away to just reach the finish line . Meanwhile in the grand stand , the punters blindly hoping their horse will one day come in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the first fence . ALL the old nags have come last and their only strategy is to try and nobble the other runners with " we can win on the cheap " costing nearly ? 250m . Dress it up as much as they like , the new breed are a mammoth fail . Shame they do n't try and run with their own money and just like the mammoth .... will become extinct , after they have trampled everyone ! What everyone of them fails to understand big time is that client service takes dedication , care and time . You simply can not do all of that for less money than a day rate for a plumber to swop your central heating boiler . On top of all that , a lower fee is more than negated by a higher sale price attained by the dedication , care and time an independent Full Service agent will spend ! ! ! |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It also does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'run out of' in a different context, referring to the depletion of funding and momentum, which is not related to the transitive out of -ing construction.

Ten of the UK 's top online/hybrid agents have raised nearly ? 250m between them since they were launched . Nearly 40% of that figure is accounted for by Purplebricks alone . EYE looked into the funding of 14 of the biggest names in the sector to see how much financial backing they have received since their respective launches . While it is n't possible to be completely accurate , every effort has been made to get as close as possible to the most likely figure . In some cases , well-known names have been entirely self-funded , whereas others have received huge levels of backing from investors . The list , in order of the amount of financial backing received , is as follows : 1 ) Purplebricks : ? 97m Purplebricks raised ? 22m ahead of its IPO 2015 , ? 25m at its IPO , and a further ? 50m through an issue of new shares in 2017 . A spokesman for Purplebricks said : " As @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ debt , following cash reducing ? 6.9m in the half -- which broadly matches US start-up losses . So all in all the company has raised ? 97m for a business which is today valued at ? 1.1bn . " 2 ) Yopa : ? 58.6m Yopa won the backing of Grosvenor Hill Ventures , the investment arm of Savills , when it was just six months old , with ? 16m in funding . It raised ? 15m from investors including Daily Mail and General Trust ( DMGT ) and Grosvenor Hill Ventures in May 2017 .

Luckily it 's not that simple and a lot harder then flogging a few phones in a price fixed retail industry or cheap flights cos daddy bought you a few planes . The time to worry about serious competition is when they start buying small local agencies and use the leverage of their software to close deals -- though how many people move say from Cornwall to Essex ... My granddaughter has a balloon which , whatever she 's done , she has failed to burst ... Maybe there is a lesson there ? This list is a reflection now on how businesses with " potential " get started , why risk your own money when you can risk someone elses . The most embarrassing company here is Easy Property who have made zero dent on in the market , no member of the public has heard of them , and according to Zoopla have something like 96 properties on the market ! I 'd be extremely interested to know how many properties have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not listed and then having a ' proper/full service/traditional ' agent step in and deliver a ' move ' for the punter that has paid up front and therefore paid again . It took Jefferies 14 months to come up with a % that differed from my approximations by just 0.04% for one month 's data for one agent . By the time all of the data manipulations for all agency types are disregarded and it is reasonably safe to use 4% of all completions as a rule of thumb for quick calculations for use in the debates on Eye There really is no practical way of calculating accurate numbers so a close approx has to do . Is this another bubble that is going to burst or just simply run out of funding and momentum ? Lastminute.com was worth ? 760m when it floated but then was sold a decade later after failing to deliver what was hoped for , for a relatively paltry ? 75m . Made a few people a few quid no doubt but cost a load more people a few quid I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ emerges and evolves . Sound familiar ? So overall we have a ' less service ' model , with every completed sale subsidised on average by ? 2,400 ( investors money and fees from not sold properties ) .... which is more than our average fee for a Full Service model . How can a less efficient model possibly be considered as being disruptive ! ! ! The negative comments are short sighted & show a lack of commercial awareness , plenty of start up companies in their embryonic stages spend more than they make . The market is ready to be disrupted & as someone who scoffed at Purplebricks four years ago I wo n't make the same mistake twice . Also . When u buy a book on Amazon you have n't got 3 local book shops warning you that it 's all smoke an mirrors and u may not even get your book delivered . Tbf Iam probably the best estate agent in Britain but because I tell the truth I ca n't expand . That 's the real killer for honest entrepreneurs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ & fixed fee/commission is man-made marketing rubbish . At the end of the day its about selling properties with a service customers love . Could be based in Antarctica with people on the road . You still get travel agents on the high street , you get them online . The most successful agents over time are those that merge the high street and online market into one . That focus on service and outcome . I personally take the view no , sale , no fee is better as reality is customers do n't understand the probability risks of selling and fixed fees do encourage companies to focus on listings rather than sales , especially when repeat business in estate agency is not like repeat business in ordering cabs or food like with uber and deliveroo . The justification of a high-street presence should be foot-fall , not necessarily the service itself being managed from there . Shop fronts are marketing billboards , where prospects can choose to engage with property experts if needed . Apple have apple-stores based on footfall , Salisbury 's have supermarkets based @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Neither are known as online supermarkets or online tech providers . in the same way the justification of tv ads should be the same , based not on footfall but on viewership that lead to customers . >Apple have apple-stores based on footfall , Salisbury 's have supermarkets based on footfall , you can still buy through them online . Neither are known as online supermarkets or online tech providers . ValueCounts31 , In the case of a visit to the Estate Agents you do n't actually get to see the property you are buying . I have n't actually used an online supermarket for a while but when I did they always turned up with something missing ( out of stock ) so you paid more and ended up having to go to the shops anyway . Some crucial differences there I think with Apple & Supermarkets . I suppose your best example is Travel Agents . They are still on the High Street but I 'm not sure many of them provide an online service . My general point is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and attainable to as much of the market as possible . Online or Local makes no difference . Some customers may want to walk into a high street outlet and talk to a professional . Some will want someone to visit them at home and discuss . Some may be happy liaising with someone over the phone and even some may be happy to commit to using an agent with purely online contact . There is no reason why one organisation ca n't do all the above . The justification for each must be a commercial one . E.g. a high street presence in a certain area is worthwhile , because there is a big enough footfall of potential customers seeing it , engaging with it and ultimately converting into customers . OR this high street presence is n't worthwhile because there is no footfall , no engagement and no conversion to customers . E.g. we believe there is a portion of the UK market that would rather us make contact via a visit to them direct at home or conversations over the phone or online @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of which that require no high street presence to make possible ) . It makes sense for us to spend on these TV ads , or these online ads or these radio ads to educate prospects of our existence -- because there is no high street presence to advertise this -- and facilitate the format of our service that they may prefer . The difference is accountability , I loathe online only for anything important , if my Amazon package does n't arrive I 'm put out , if my credit card is used by somebody other than myself I loathe that I am ' a valued customer and number 16 in the queue ' off shore service hubs got killed for a reason , the amount of times I 've advised a client using a local lawyer to go and sit in their reception till it 's sorted because that focuses attention , hubs do not and will not give a rats **** and never will , nobody accountable nobody cares and everybody 's been paid already , most vendors are not sophisticated in moving and need a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of that from pay up front Is n't that what the high street agents has been doing for two decades ... high street and on-line ! It is the so called hybrids , which is itself not correct as they " only do on-line " . So they do less , have less presence , marketing outlets and sales . World of difference between marketing and selling , PB have proved adept at marketing themselves but I 'm struggling to think of anything innovative otherwise , booking viewings at 11.00pm for 10.00am the next morning ? Whoopy Doo , can just picture that vendor loving that ' special service ' Even that is not innovative , been around for years . To be fair PB were the first to bring it to the public 's attention . Many agents now have this tech . PB is a fantastic company at marketing themselves as you point out . They are not fantastic value for sellers . 50% of their customers loose over a ? 1000 a question mark hangs over the 50% that do sell , have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the only people who lose their fee are those who go on to sell with another agent and in that case they may very well have received a discount for switching . So it is misleading to say that 50% lose their fee but i suppose you know that . Of course , on average , even using your incorrect figure of 50% , PurpleBricks are better value than an Estate Agent who charges a commission in the region of 1.2% . For those that have more valuable properties the value is even greater . I 'm not going to debate this , I just thought I 'd post for purposes of balance ? ? cyberduck46 ... so , where in the PB Small/Legal Print does it say that ? " if we fail to sell your property and you switch to a real Estate Agent you will receive a partial refund of the up-front fee that you originally paid " . I also think it 's time that the Purplebricks Ads/Marketing came with a Wealth Warning ... " WARNING , You have a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , you have paid us 100% up-front ! " You will not debate it as you know you will lose . You do this time and again . you try and shout somebody down . They come back and show your points are invalid and you run away . How long should they give PB to sell their property ? -- If we do not sell a property within 12 weeks ( 3 months ) sellers get upset . We are no sale no fee . So how do you think a seller feels parting with ? 900 up front or ? 1250 differed and they are still not sold after 10 months ? -- So yes it is reasonable they change agent and they lose the ( on average ) ? 1000 Surely after say 6 months the agent has shown they are not the right agent to sell the property . And lets be honest the only selling they do is listing it on RM . PB booking system also does not let you book a valuation unless you disclose how much @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ commission only individual then going round to the property knowing what the seller wants . Is it unreasonable to think they maybe add on a few thousand to win the instruction ? -- They are then locked into a contract which they must pay even if the price was inflated by the agent . As for the fee saving possibly in the South East and London but try Newcastle , average house price is below ? 200,000 in some areas , Agents will drop below 1% If You go with PB with a board , a viewing assistant etc you are paying close to 2k . You are right on one point its only 49% that lose their money not 50% I am sure you will not debate as you point out but as you like balance so much i thought best to post . What figure should he be using ? 44.36% as it is now or the total number of sstc properties divided by the number that are for sale to give 79.72% a number close to the latest CEOs ' claims of 78% @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ can suddenly exchange contracts on a greater percentage of properties than it 's had under offer , sale agreed , sold subject to contract or sold by another agent . It should be noted changing the status backwards and forwards from For Sale to Under Offer does n't actually make the number of properties sold any higher >A property listed in November 2016 still for sale , is that the sign of a good agent ? It is proof that you are misleading people when you claim " 50% of their customers loose over a ? 1000 " . You have admitted to using Jefferies numbers and you 've twisted what they reported to state that everybody who has n't sold yet has lost over ? 1000 . This is misleading . Jefferies reported that 51.9% had sold within a given time . That 's not the same thing as saying 48.1% have lost over ? 1000 . There are people still marketing with PurpleBricks , people on a marketing break , people who have completed but the property is n't yet registered at the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that need to be added to the 51.9% figure ( assuming the approximation is anywhere near accurate in the first place ) . For a better idea of who has lost money take a look at https : **39;79;TOOLONG ... You will see they split listed properties into 4 categories . The only ones you could claim have lost any money are the ones in the yellow part of the graphs who are ones who have listed with another agent , which in the case of PurpleBricks is about 10% of their customers . If you provided your name , smile please , members of the public would be able to complain to Advertising Standards as you are clearly misleading people and can not substantiate your claims . Any vendor who has n't achieved a sale with Purple Bricks in 10 months are going to want to increase their chances of a sale regardless of cost . ( Cost of ; upfront fee / lost dreams / their sanity / a fear of ones ability to make intelligent decisions etc ) Staying with PB purely because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the ONLY compelling reason to do so . You say that redemption is promised to them by PB at the low price of the surrender of their critical faculties and stay with a service that has so far failed , till they are sold . In reality , vendors have to either forfeit and walk or sign up with another agent on a multi agency agreement . Therefore , Purple Bricks attempt to free vendors from such a terrible fee situation appears to have done the opposite for 100% of vendors for 50% of the time . Interestingly , the same odds as getting a USB connection in the right way up in the dark . I have researched several samples of listings from PurpleBricks and can confirm that properties still continue to complete after the 10 month period and also after the 1 year period . I looked at one sample from 30th March 2016 and when I first checked on 3/4/17 16 of the 24 were sold ( completed ) and registered at the Land Registry . When I checked back again on 3/2/18 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Land Registry ( 20 in my opinion by PurpleBricks ) . In fact just checking again , I can see that the completion date of ones that went on to completion that I did n't detect on my first check actually completed prior to my check so one of the issues is the delay from completion to registration . For example one of them completed on 21/2/17 and another on 31/3/17 . Feel free to check out the sample : I 'm sorry but I doubt I have time to come back and reply again . Other things to do . Do your own research . Beware listening to people with a vested interest . For the record . I am not a shareholder in PurpleBricks but have been in the past and retain an interest . Estate agency is n't about selling a property ' eventually ' it 's about selling a property in a time frame that suits the vendor and takes into consideration what , if anything , they 're hoping to buy . Selling 10 -20% below listing price 10 +months later @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 're now advocating ' bear with us , it will go eventually , ca n't say when but we 're doing our best " you 're describing a listing service not estate agency . It 's unreasonable to compare the cost of a listing service with estate agency . The value of 10 months market shift is about 5.72% , that 's average worth around ? 16,000 I 'm not sure making a strap-line " save thousands to lose loads more thousands " is a case worth proving It depends which data you look at . Spoon feed a listing rep with rubbish and that is where the problems begin . If it 's the same rubbish as been fed to the vendor that is where passive intermediary listing services and full obligation estate agency interface . If you had been trading up rather than down your experience would have been very different indeed as it is the methodology of your sale that meant you got a price you got a sale but you did n't achieve a demand driven competitive sale , your sale was purely @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 99 rather than what you did . I will take your swerve of the point as agreement of the point . Those who do n't sell in good time with PB are hit with a lifetime , imaginary sole agency contract on the basis that it would be money down the drain if they walk away from PB . According to you , " ... the wrong type of customer is being drawn to PurpleBricks . " I disagree . PB has attracted the types of customers that suit the PB model . Elsewhere those who can see through the charade are heeding your own advice , " Beware listening to people with a vested interest " Your remarks are marketing gold should your " retained interest " be that you are a Purple Bricks LPE . No , you ca n't assume agreement . I wo n't speculate as to what a lister with PB was thinking when they listed their property . For me , it 's the ideal way to market a property if you do n't trust traditional agents . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sale with Purple Bricks in 10 months are going to want to increase their chances of a sale regardless of cost . " . That has been shown to be wrong . >Your remarks are marketing gold should your " retained interest " be that you are a Purple Bricks LPE . No , not one of them either . Ask Robert May , Chris Wood & PeeBee . They all know who I am . If you research all of their posts on EYE over 4 years you will find enough clues to work it out , I did ! ! ! The beauty of writing a system that makes advanced , site specific , veracious search simple is it 's possible to have apparent Rainman recall . There is no sales speak , I have always been honest it 's advanced internet searching but I made that available to people who did n't know advance search existed or how to do it . You want to find out who smile please is so you can attempt to troll or discredit him or her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out who they are . I ca n't be bothered checking all his posts but one that did what his name requests i.e. made me smile , and which I had already bookmarked is where he claims " If Neil Woodford makes a " Profit " on this investment I will be more than surprised . " . This was when he invested ? 7m for a 30% stake . Current value over ? 350M Thanks Cyberduck46 , once again clearing it up for us mere mortals . 1 ) Purple Bricks take money upfront to list property and they take it upfront from disillusioned home owners who do nt trust estate agents . I guess Purple Bricks LPEs are cleansed of your untrustworthiness by renaming them " experienced agents " . 2 ) Vendors who havent sold after 10 months have no interest in increasing their chances of a sale and it would be wrong to assume that they do . Said no vendor ever . Who am I ? Who I am is complicated , what I am is a little easier . Google it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Teddy : What we will not tolerate is ... getting nothing for our money : no information , no protection ... no assurances . You understand , Little Johnny ? " But they 're not even a fantastic company at marketing themselves , they use brewsters millions to employ companies that are built to do that job and sink or swim in their own industry , I 'm sure the purple bricks account is the star of India , leeches the whole lot of ' em I took great delight helping one of my staff buy a house which Purplebricks were marketing . That 's the great thing for buyers , Purplebricks have got their money from the seller so the actual sale of the client 's property is meaningless to them ! Anyway , I advised we go in well below the asking price ( Offers Over in Scotland generally means you pay in excess of the Offers Over price ) , with the clear thought that Purplebricks would urge their client to accept the offer . Sure enough , Purplebricks were back on the phone @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Phil to submit a daft offer . In my experience , if you want to buy cheap , buy through Purplebricks . If you want to sell your home for the best price use a full service High Street Estate Agent who who charges for success -- No Sale , No Fee .... it 's a No Brainer . CD46 whichever which way we phrase or interpret this conversation online , and for any casual viewer of this site without skin in the game , in the real world PB are woeful for those of us trying to get people moved , truly woeful , just as those of us who do this daily used to shudder initially when the lawyer was cpl but they 're still here and I 'm sure PB will endure and we 'll endure them too , but as someone not bothered about share price , H2 , small print or analysts I can assure you that barring individual bright spots with their LPE 's overall they are rubbish structurally in helping people move , the hub model is impersonal and unhelpful because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is all that matters in a hub Cyberduck -- the problem being my member of staff made an offer well below the asking price which PB did n't bother to negotiate ? Let me state that again for you " did n't bother to negotiate ! " . It 's the principle point of a real Estate Agent , to act in their client 's best interests ! PB were lazy , not motivated , could n't be *rsed because they have already been paid ? ..... they clearly did n't give a t*ss . The result reads like this .... Buyer Won , Seller Lost , Purplebricks failed . I negotiated just short of ? 10,000 more for a client of mine today in Scotland . The buyer offered just short of ? 10,000 below the Fixed Price which my Seller would have bitten their hand off for ! ....... however , the gritty old estate agent did their job and delivered the best price for their client , ? 9,950 more ! For clarity , I 'm NOT motivated by the small matter of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that I DO my Job ! Substitute Purplebricks for me and I 'm pretty safe in assuming , having already pocketed their Fee , they would have recommended that the Vendor does n't lose the offer , instead loses ? 9,950 ! .... to be equally fair that would most likely apply to most upfront fee Listers ! Anyway , Purplebricks is summed up thus , in my humble opinion " Purplebricks -- 50% chance for 100% cost ! " . In contrast I charge a fee when I actually deliver the 100% result ! I hold the opinion that choice is king and punters are entitled to that choice . Whether or not you like the pay anyway approach it does provide choice . Based on my experience recently with a couple of traditional agents I can see why some punters see the risk v reward as worth it . Example : I registered to view two houses last week with a multi branch independent in the midlands . They did not ask if I had a house to sell or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be moved , simply booked them in . The agent met us to show us around and while looking at the second one I asked him about another property they had on in the village . He denied they had one on that road , I pointed out they had a board outside it which then jogged his memory . He could n't tell me anything about it only offer me a viewing if I wanted to . This was all on Saturday and I have not heard from the agent to follow up and provide their vendor with any feedback or attempt to close me for a viewing on the other property . I have been in the industry for 15 years and have seen an embarrassing dilution of good effective estate agency in that time so is it any wonder that some members of the public question what they are getting for their 1% + Vat or more . Sadly ARC your experience is no surprise to anyone who has been in the business a while . There are some dreadful agents out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I agree about giving punters a choice . But unless those punters are made aware of the benefits and risks of their choices they can not make an informed decision . You can take your own appendix out if you want but usually it 's a better choice to have a qualified and competent surgeon do it for you . I have a member of staff like that bud , she 's got to learn somehow and hopefully she 'll make it but if not good luck with whatever she does elsewhere , difference is we 'll prune where necessary because we 're not sucking on a golden teat At the end of the day , the no sale still pay meddlers are offering a service ( or not ) to those that may have tried to sell privately in the local newspaper 10 to 20 years ago . There were always 40 pages of agents and 2 pages of private sellers in my area , and that equation is still the same today with on-liners taking only 5% of the market even after spending zillions . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that happens we are all dead in the water I am afraid , until then , let them splash the cash , seemingly they are not getting very far ( except up our noses ) . It may well be a long time coming . However , building societies now do desk top valuations . Straight forward on-line conveyancing with indemnity policies to cover the process might be the first step . Who knows . They came out of the box marketed as a new breed of race horse , the bookies ranked them to be an odds on favourite while they were still yearlings and no track performance ! The reality , they are all old nags dressed up to look like a new breed , running the same mile with a handicap of limited performance that they have tried to hide . The promoters are happy taking the money while the syndicates get nothing in return and the jockey keeps flogging away to just reach the finish line . Meanwhile in the grand stand , the punters blindly hoping their horse will one day come in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the first fence . ALL the old nags have come last and their only strategy is to try and nobble the other runners with " we can win on the cheap " costing nearly ? 250m . Dress it up as much as they like , the new breed are a mammoth fail . Shame they do n't try and run with their own money and just like the mammoth .... will become extinct , after they have trampled everyone ! What everyone of them fails to understand big time is that client service takes dedication , care and time . You simply can not do all of that for less money than a day rate for a plumber to swop your central heating boiler . On top of all that , a lower fee is more than negated by a higher sale price attained by the dedication , care and time an independent Full Service agent will spend ! ! ! |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'made a career out of telling shaggy dog stories' involves a transitive verb 'made' with an NP object 'a career', but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the NP object 'a career' does not function as a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Wes Anderson has made a career out of telling shaggy dog stories in artfully designed fashion so it 's only natural he should make that impulse literal with stop-motion animated canine epic Isle of Dogs . Opening this year 's Glasgow Film Festival , the Japan-set tale finds Anderson filtering the work of Akira Kurosawa , Katsushika Hokusai and Studio Ghibli through his own idiosyncratic gaze to create a dazzling futuristic dystopian fable in which man 's best friend has been banished by a cat-loving mayor following an outbreak of canine flu . Glasgow Film Festival Opening Gala : Isle of Dogs ***** Deposited on a nearby archipelago known as Trash Island , the country 's population of unwanted mutts have been left to go feral , largely forgotten by human owners who have succumbed to fake news designed to stoke fear of their four-legged friends . Scavenging for food and fighting over scraps , these dogs roam the landfill-strewn quarantine zone , banding together into mini packs who look out for one another at a time when the phrase " dog eat dog @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ particularly kid-friendly , but anyone weaned on the likes of Spirited Away or Anderson 's own Fantastic Mr Fox should lap up the film 's weirder turns . It 's also full of exquisite comic set-pieces and the hound-dog heroes - voiced by Bryan Cranston , Edward Norton , Jeff Goldblum and Anderson talisman Bill Murray - are wonderfully realised too , especially as they risk all to help a ten-year-old boy find his exiled pooch just as Mayor Kobayashi ( voiced Kunichi Nomura , who co-wrote the story ) sets in motion a duplicitous plan to wipe out the canine population once and for all . Anderson 's signature whimsy is n't for everyone , but his evolving ability to temper delight with dread and vice-versa is superlative here , ensuring the wordplay of the title ca n't help but ring true . |

The sentence does not involve the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'opt out of being donors' does not fit the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, 'opt out of' is followed by a noun phrase 'being donors', not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no causer-causee relationship or a movement/prevention interpretation as required by the construction.

Proposals for a change in the law on organ donation in England to ensure people have to opt out of being donors passed a significant milestone in Parliament yesterday , after MPs told emotional personal stories of donors ' generosity in the Commons . Ministers confirmed they would support a Private Member 's Bill ? tabled by Labour MP Geoffrey Robinson to introduce presumed consent in England , following the move to an opt-out system in Wales . Health minister Jackie Doyle-Price also confirmed that the Government would name the changes " Max 's Law " after Max Johnson , a 10-year-old boy who was saved by a heart transplant . Ms Doyle-Price said the current system meant lives are being lost " unnecessarily " . She said it was " too early " to assess what effect the change to an opt-out system has had in Wales , which introduced the system in December 2015 . " Our best estimates are that this change will secure an additional 100 donors a year , which could lead to the saving of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the basis that we could save 200 lives , we will wholeheartedly support this Bill . " Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn urged MPs during the debate to support the Bill , while the Health Secretary , Jeremy Hunt , was also present on the Government 's front bench during Ms Doyle-Price 's closing remarks . MPs heard that about 1,000 people die every year while waiting for a transplant and England had some of the lowest rates of consent for organ donation in western Europe . Mr Robinson said a " certain inertia " had set in over the last four years with organ donations slowing . He added : " If we take England , the situation is disappointing . " We have some of the lowest rates of consent for organ donation in western Europe , low family rates of consent being one of the major barriers .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it involves the phrase 'opt out of being donors', where 'opt out of' is followed by a gerund phrase 'being donors', but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Proposals for a change in the law on organ donation in England to ensure people have to opt out of being donors passed a significant milestone in Parliament yesterday , after MPs told emotional personal stories of donors ' generosity in the Commons . Ministers confirmed they would support a Private Member 's Bill ? tabled by Labour MP Geoffrey Robinson to introduce presumed consent in England , following the move to an opt-out system in Wales . Health minister Jackie Doyle-Price also confirmed that the Government would name the changes " Max 's Law " after Max Johnson , a 10-year-old boy who was saved by a heart transplant . Ms Doyle-Price said the current system meant lives are being lost " unnecessarily " . She said it was " too early " to assess what effect the change to an opt-out system has had in Wales , which introduced the system in December 2015 . " Our best estimates are that this change will secure an additional 100 donors a year , which could lead to the saving of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the basis that we could save 200 lives , we will wholeheartedly support this Bill . " Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn urged MPs during the debate to support the Bill , while the Health Secretary , Jeremy Hunt , was also present on the Government 's front bench during Ms Doyle-Price 's closing remarks . MPs heard that about 1,000 people die every year while waiting for a transplant and England had some of the lowest rates of consent for organ donation in western Europe . Mr Robinson said a " certain inertia " had set in over the last four years with organ donations slowing . He added : " If we take England , the situation is disappointing . " We have some of the lowest rates of consent for organ donation in western Europe , low family rates of consent being one of the major barriers .

WHAT do you think about when you think about love ? That is almost the last question I ask Frightened Rabbit this afternoon . We have been talking for an hour now and I want to know , I tell them , what does that word mean to each of the band . Scott Hutchison , the band 's songwriter and frontman -- " Scorpio , single and ready to mingle , " he has already told me -- is the first to speak up . Simon Liddell , guitarist , keyboard player and Hamilton Accies fanatic , picks up the baton and carries it further down the same road . " The idea that going into a studio to write songs and work on our music is a job , that 's amazing to me . " And then it 's the turn of Grant " I hate cats " Hutchison , Scott 's younger brother and the drummer . " Whenever that word comes up , " he begins , " it 's always my family I think of first . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ across the table , " that makes me look a dick . " On the first day of the second month five mostly bearded thirty-something men are gathered together in the Old Hairdresser 's Bar in Glasgow 's Renfield Street a few hours before opening time to laugh and joke and talk ; talk about the past and the present , about fear and masculinity and , yes , about love . All that and why they wo n't be making an electro album any time soon . Alongside the Hutchison brothers and Simon , there are guitarist Andy Monaghan and bassist Billy Kennedy , who tells me his other claim to fame is that he created a drink called " the slimer " ( no , I do n't want to know what it tastes like either ) and is n't much one for interviews . ( In the conversation that follows just assume that Kennedy is sitting over in the corner quietly . ) The five of them are easy in each other 's company , which is what you might expect given that they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Unless you cleave to the Fleetwood Mac or UB40 model of band harmony , of course . Conversationally , it 's Scott and Grant who do most of the heavy lifting , with Simon and Andy pitching in from the sidelines . These days the members of Frightened Rabbit are indie rock veterans , mainstays of the Scottish music scene . They 're five albums in and signed to Atlantic Records and established enough to be in a position to look back as well as forward . Their next move exemplifies that . Come March they will be back onstage for a series of special gigs in which they will play their 2008 sophomore album The Midnight Organ Fight in full for the first time because ... Well , because they can . And because it 's an album Frightened Rabbit fans hold close to their hearts . " A record shop owner in the United States once told me it 's our business card record , " Scott says . " If you 're going to like this band this is the one to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ then you 're not going to like the band , full stop . It 's an album I feel lucky to have made because it does n't go away . It keeps on having a life . That 's not true of all our records . In three years we 're not going to do a 10-year anniversary of the one that came after because I 'm not that keen on it . " For those of you who do n't know it , The Midnight Organ Fight is an album that is all flayed skin and raw emotion -- Hutchison senior 's diary of that time put to music . It 's a record full of male vulnerability and desperation ; a break-up record , the band 's Blood on the Tracks or Vulnicura , you could argue . " The weird thing about the record is it makes people very open to telling any of us about really personal things in their life , " the singer says . " Quite often it 's a break-up , but it could be any kind of significant event @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all those years ago seem close or far away , Scott ? " I 'm a completely different singer now . My vocal sounds like a teenager 's to me . Some of the moves lyrically are cringeworthy and not moves that I would make now . " However , looking back , there 's an exuberance to it that I envy . But , no , I do n't really associate with that guy at all . It 's odd to have such a very visceral marker of who I was at that time . " The mechanics and repetition of touring has , he adds , hammered the feeling out of the songs for him , but whenever he sings them a film runs in his head . People he does n't speak to any more pop up . The past lives on in the words and music . And is n't that true of all of us ? " The honesty and forthright nature of the lyrical content , people have just continued to connect with , " Scott continues . " They feel @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . And I 'm happy with that . " There 's another reason why The Midnight Organ Fight is special to all five . It 's the reason why the band are still around , they say . Touring that record , Grant believes , is what laid the foundations for the next ten years . " We would n't be doing this now , " he says . The story of Frightened Rabbit started in Selkirk , where Scott and Grant Hutchison hail from , but the band grew up in Glasgow and on the road . They know who they are now , what they are . Teenage dreams might be hard to beat but they 're not always realistic . " I 've settled into what we are , " Scott says . " Maybe for the first three or four years you think : ' This is really going to take off ' . And then you realise that 's not even desirable . " We were close to major label deals when we started out and then we were snubbed at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ because our trajectory would have been all wrong . " The growth since then has been slow , organic , they say . An evolution rather than a revolution . " We 've never said , ' Here 's our electro album ' , " Scott suggests . " There will be bands who get superhyped from the get-go , " adds Simon , " who probably wo n't have had that experience this band had of touring in a splitter van . " Who was the designated driver ? Scott , they say in unison . " Thinking back , I now feel that I should never have been driving , " the singer agrees . Why not ? " Listen to the record , " says Grant , laughing . " After an hour of driving , Scott would go , ' You know when you 're doing something and you realise that you 've been doing it for an hour and you 'll wake up ' . We 'd go , ' Right , time to pull over ' . " Or maybe @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ United States , Scott says , when he was trying to make up time by breaking the speed limit . Cue police sirens . " The cop was like , ' Where are you from then ? Scotland ? Aw , holy shit , my grandfather was in the military there ' . And I got off with it . " He did say , ' You do n't play none of that Coldplay shit , do you ? ' " When they 're not on the road they all live in Glasgow , including Scott , who has tried living in the US in recent years . He 's moved back and is happy to call the city home . " It 's absolutely here , " says Scott . " I 've tried other places and I never had that feeling . " It 's given us a lot of stuff and it 's not just visible , tangible things , " he adds . " It 's what it makes you want to do so . You come to Glasgow and you start @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and being amazing . " Coming here , he says , taught them that being in a band was a realistic notion after all . " People doing things not with the view of making loads of money out of it as well , " Grant adds . " People putting on shows wherever just because they love bands . Not feeling like , ' I see something in this band . I could promote them to Hampden one day ' . " This is vital , they believe . Bands and a support network leading by example . " Young bands need to see their predecessors finding success , " says Simon . " They need to see Frightened Rabbit , Chvrches , Twilight Sad doing well , making a living out of it in order to believe they can as well . That it 's possible for a Scottish band to do it . " Frightened Rabbit are an example of possibility then . But how does that possibility play out ? Is Frightened Rabbit a democracy ? " Aye , totally , " says @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bring it up rather than have it fester away , " adds Grant . Well , that 's very good , I say . And it brings me to something I want to talk to all of them about . Gentlemen , can we talk about masculinity ? Because it seems to me that Frightened Rabbit do not live up -- or should that be down -- to the stereotype of the Scottish male . If you write songs entitled I Wish I was Sober , or write songs about committing suicide by jumping off the Forth Road Bridge ( Floating in the Forth ) , then emotionally closed in is the last thing you can be accused of . Music allows you to be open , they say . " Men can have trouble communicating how they feel , " agrees Grant , " and I think to express your feelings via a Frightened Rabbit song is okay . It does n't emasculate . I do n't find it emasculating . " When we were doing the Organ tour the majority of the audience were males who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the balance has changed , " says Scott . " It 's not just sad beardy guys any more . They are there , but they 're happier now , I think . " Maybe it 's a generational thing , suggests Andy . " Our generation and younger generations are potentially more in touch with our feelings . Socially online they 're open to to sharing their whole lives . " Scott , meanwhile , is still worrying away at the idea of the changing nature of the Frightened Rabbit audience . " The lads are turning up but it 's a much more female fanbase , it 's much more diverse than it used to be . I 'd love to think of a bunch of Rangers fans pouring their hearts out to each other over a Frightened Rabbit album . That would be great . That 's progress ... When he was a boy Scott 's mother used to call him a frightened rabbit . Which gave the band their name . So what frightens them all now ? " Performing in this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I do n't live in fear , " Scott says . " Thankfully I spend a lot of my time doing it . It 's me at my most comfortable and most myself . The rest of the time I can be a bit of a challenge . Things bother me . I 'm an anxious person . " His brother is n't so sure . " I do n't see a lot of frightened rabbit in you anymore . " Really ? Playing in a band that 's always touring the world might not have been the best career choice then . " Billy was hoping we would n't have any success , " laughs Simon and then fails to answer the question himself . " I 've got nothing . Andy , what are you scared of ? " " I 'm scared that someone 's going to call me out as not being a good musician , " Andy says . " I did n't go to the Conservatoire . I 've never had a guitar lesson . It used to really worry @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you would think that , " Grant tells him , " because I think you 're a great guitarist . " They 're talking to each other and not to me now . " Do any of you guys fear the prospect of re-entering a normal life ? " Simon asks his bandmates . " Maybe having to find a normal job , because that 's something that enters my mind sometimes . " " I think about it quite a bit , but it does n't scare me because I do n't think we would necessarily have to go into a nine-to-five job , " answers Grant . " It 's easy to forget how much experience we have built up in this industry which would allow us to do other things within it . " " So , I 've got an irrational fear , " replies Simon . " I 'm totally unemployable , " says Scott . " The last thing I would put on my CV would be working in Peckhams in 2009 . " And this is when I ask @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ family members and fiancees ( that 's Grant ) . " Do you love me ? " Scott asks his brother . " At times , no , " his brother answers , laughing . Then Andy Monaghan gives his definition of love . " It 's being able to create something out of nothing with your friends and seeing how other people you have no connection to can find joy in that . There 's this thing moving through everybody 's life that people can respond to in . It 's great to see that . " What is left of us is love . It 's the best tune any of us get to play .

The sentence contains the phrase 'grind your way out of whacking $10 on your credit card', which fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'grind' implies a means to achieve a goal (by exerting effort), and the NP object 'your way' is coreferential with the subject, similar to the atypical cases mentioned in (6). The interpretation here is prevention, as the subject is trying to avoid the action described by the VP2[-ing] predicate ('whacking $10 on your credit card').

Case in point : Konami 's Metal Gear Survive , the company 's first game in the series since Hideo Kojima left the fold a couple of years ago . The survival-shooter has received fairly lukewarm reviews so far , but more troublingly , word 's gradually emerging of the various ways Konami 's trying to pry extra chunks of cash from its customers .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate).

MSPs have raised concerns about the tight timescale for implementing low emission zones ( LEZs ) in Scotland . Members of Holyrood 's environment committee said they supported the move . But they questioned whether councils had the necessary technical and financial resources for them to be fully operational . The Scottish government said it was committed to working with local authorities on introducing LEZs " consistent with national standards " . The concerns emerged following a nine-month inquiry examining the effectiveness of the Scottish government 's 2015 Cleaner Air for Scotland Strategy . The environment committee 's report expressed concerns about the " direction of travel , rate of change and action on the ground " and called for the strategy to be kept under review to ensure it is " fit for purpose " . Scotland 's first LEZ is due to be up and running in Glasgow by the end of the year with zones in place in the four biggest cities by 2020 . The most polluting buses will be banned from the city centre as part of the scheme , which will be extended to other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ move to tackle air pollution in Scotland , and follows claims that air quality contributes to the death of 300 Glaswegians every year . The committee 's report said that even if the zones were in place by the deadlines " they will not be enforced for a number of years " which might cause confusion , particularly for bus operators and small freight firms . Image copyrightFriends of the Earth ScotlandImage caption Campaigners from Friends of the Earth Scotland have raised concerns about air quality in Edinburgh MSPs called for a progress update by the end of June 2018 " along with an indication of the date of which they will be enforceable " . The committee backed private cars being included in the LEZs and urged ministers to consider exploring congestion charging and workplace parking levies . MSPs also noted concern that at the current rate of progress it would take about 239 years to reach the government 's target for 10% of journeys to be made by bike by 2020 , while passenger numbers on buses have fallen over the past five @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Poor air quality remains an issue in a number of our towns and cities across Scotland , and effective change is needed now so that all of us can breathe clean air and lead healthy lives in the future . " While we recognise that the Scottish government has ambitious targets to tackle pollution , we have questions on whether the necessary support is going to be in place to achieve these . " For example , while we support low emission zones and the phasing out of polluting cars to stop toxic and traffic-choked streets , we are seeking clarity on how this will be delivered . " The report was welcomed by Friends of the Earth Scotland , which estimates that 2,500 people in Scotland die early as a result of air pollution each year . Its air pollution campaigner Emilia Hanna said : " Low emission zones are a vital tool which will make our air cleaner and safer to breathe if they are delivered properly . " As Glasgow City Council develops its plans for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the year , it needs to set an ambitious example ahead of the Aberdeen , Dundee and Edinburgh LEZs due in 2020 . " She added that cars and taxis must be included in the Glasgow LEZ by 2020 at the latest . " An LEZ which only includes buses would be very disappointing and would not deliver the step change on pollution that we need , " she said . A spokeswoman for the Scottish government said it wanted local authorities to be " ambitious " in their LEZ designs and consider all vehicles for inclusion . " Lead-in times for LEZs are an essential requirement in the design as they allow residents and businesses time to prepare for the new forthcoming emission standards , prior to enforcement starting , " she added . " We have also introduced an interest free loan scheme to support low emission vehicle ownership , and a ? 14.5m Green Bus Fund which has seen the introduction of 300 low emission buses to the Scottish fleet .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('We' + 'talked' + 'her' + 'out of cloning'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the subject (We) is attempting to prevent the object (her) from performing the action described by the VP2[-ing] predicate (cloning). The verb 'talked' fits into the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot, specifically under 'By means of enticing, flattering, or verbal persuasion'.

Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Artists have slammed the Great Exhibition of the North after it revealed arms manufacturer BAE Systems , which has been accused of " profiteering from the deaths of innocent children " , as one of its three key sponsors . One musician has already pulled out of playing at the event , saying she was " disgusted " by the partnership , and a petition has now been launched calling on the organisers to refuse the sponsorship . Speaking at the announcement of the partnership last month , Gary Verity , Chair of the Great Exhibition of the North , said he was " thrilled " about the agreement and described BAE Systems as a " perfect fit " for the Exhibition . The revelation comes days after the ? 5m Government-sponsored project , which is taking place in Newcastle and Gateshead , revealed its programme of events and invited submissions for allied performances and events across the North of England . BAE Systems is one of three Premier Partners for the Exhibition , alongside Virgin Trains East Coast and management consultancy Accenture . Speaking at the announcement of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ than 18,000 employees based in the region " and was " very proud " to be part of the Exhibition . AP reached out to the Exhibition for comment about the partnership but did not hear back before publication . The petition , which was launched today , calls on Sarah Stewart , CEO of the Newcastle Gateshead Initiative , to refuse BAE Systems ' sponsorship . " British arms companies including BAE have made more than ? 6bn from sales to Saudi Arabia during the ongoing war in Yemen . International humanitarian law prohibits attacks against civilians yet the British armed Saudi-led coalition has bombed schools , markets , hospitals , and health centres , " the petition reads . " The conflict has killed or injured more than 5,000 children , while survivors face malnutrition and disease with the collapse of infrastructure . Unicef warns that , ' nearly every child in Yemen ' is in need of humanitarian assistance . The Great Exhibition of the North claims to offer ' family-friendly fun ' . " This is totally at odds @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ According to a report by War Child UK , the international charity working to protect and support children affected by war , several British arms companies including BAE Systems have collectively made more than ? 6bn by trading with Saudi Arabia during the ongoing war in Yemen . The report also singled out BAE Systems and accused it of " profiteering from the deaths of innocent children " . In response to criticisms last year about the company 's dealings with Saudi Arabia , the Guardian reported that Chairman of BAE Systems Sir Roger Carr said : " We try and provide our people , our government , our allies with the very best weapons , the very best sticks they can have , to encourage peace . " He added : " We maintain peace by having the ability to make war and that has stood the test of time . " Musician and radio presenter Nadine Shah announced on Twitter that she would not be playing the festival after discovering that BAE Systems is a sponsor . " I am @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in any way associated with them , " she wrote . " I encourage all artists involved to follow suit . " Over 500 people have liked the tweet , which has been shared over 100 times . Artist Darren Cullen described the decision to partner with BAE Systems as " nauseating " . " BAE Systems make their money from the *destruction* of people 's lives , culture , infrastructure & community , yet you 've invited them into a festival that 's supposed to be about creativity , " he wrote . Researcher Stephen Pritchard said the decision to accept sponsorship from BAE Systems " beggars belief " and asked how exhibition organisers can " legitimately defend their decision to attach such a brand to the event " . He continued : " Are artists and organisations involved in the event aware that their names are being used by BAE Systems to sanitise their image as symbols of their commitment to corporate social responsibility ? This is artwashing on a grand scale : the artwashing of the North of England . Some artists have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the North to #dropBAE . " It is unethical to have BAE 's name associated with the exhibition and it taints the proud cultures and heritage of the people of Newcastle and Gateshead and , indeed , the North . " Yeah but when money comes from selling , amongst other things , ' Advanced Precision Kill Weapon Systems ' it 's hardly subtle is it . The North was built off the back of global arms trade and I think it 's great this has highlighted the massive cognitive dissonance at play in these grand spectaculars . It really shows things for what they are .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it includes the phrase 'got out of the relationship' which does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Prince Charles 's appetite for the company and favours of the super wealthy remains undimmed What is it about rich men and the Prince of Wales ? Despite endless criticism -- even from his own father -- for accepting millions of pounds worth of largesse from affluent acquaintances , some of whom had distinctly colourful backgrounds , Charles 's appetite for the company and favours of the super wealthy remains undimmed . From private jets and helicopters to floating gin palaces and Riviera mansions , the prince has exhibited an unerring ability to suspend judgement about their controversial past when it suits him . But even his most devoted admirers were left shuddering at revelations that he has formed a friendship with James Stunt , the vain and swaggering former son-in-law of motor racing tycoon Bernie Ecclestone .

A new documentary will give television viewers a glimpse behind the scenes of one of Yorkshire 's most-loved tourist attractions . Sarah Freeman meets the stars of the show . Main picture by Graham Staples . Paul Middleton reckons he might just have the best office in the world . While his daily cup of coffee may regularly contain a heaped teaspoonful of soot and his workplace may be devoid of anything easily described as luxurious , he could be right . As engine shed manager on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway , Paul , known to his friends and colleagues as Piglet , has a view from his desk along an 18 mile stretch of some of the most picturesque landscapes in the county . Middleton joined the heritage railway , which runs steam trains from Pickering to the coast at Whitby , 20 years ago as a paid apprentice and is now part of the fixtures and fitting . " This is all I 've ever done since @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ' Right you best go find yourself a job ' , " he says . " The engines do n't look after themselves . You need to maintain them day after day to keep these girls running , but this place is not just what I do for a living it 's part of who I am . " During last season , a documentary crew were among the thousands to board one of the NYMR trains . The aim was to show what it takes to run Britain 's busiest steam railway and they followed the staff behind the scenes as they marked the line 's 50th anniversary . The series is now being shown on Channel 5 and , by the time the credits roll , Middleton is likely to have earned himself a few fans . So too will Chris Price . As general manager of the NYMR it 's his job to ensure that during the months it is open each year it earns the ? 7m needed to pay the annual maintenance and staffing bills . " That was why for the line 's 50th anniversary last year we hired the Royal Scot . At ? 2,000 a day it was n't cheap , but we need to give visitors a reason to keep coming back . " You have to remind yourself that not many people get the opportunity to see something like the Royal Scot as part of their day job and it is a privilege to do this for a living .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It describes trains coming out of a location (King's Cross) without any NP object or VP2[-ing] predicate, and there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation involved.

A new documentary will give television viewers a glimpse behind the scenes of one of Yorkshire 's most-loved tourist attractions . Sarah Freeman meets the stars of the show . Main picture by Graham Staples . Paul Middleton reckons he might just have the best office in the world . While his daily cup of coffee may regularly contain a heaped teaspoonful of soot and his workplace may be devoid of anything easily described as luxurious , he could be right . As engine shed manager on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway , Paul , known to his friends and colleagues as Piglet , has a view from his desk along an 18 mile stretch of some of the most picturesque landscapes in the county . Middleton joined the heritage railway , which runs steam trains from Pickering to the coast at Whitby , 20 years ago as a paid apprentice and is now part of the fixtures and fitting . " This is all I 've ever done since @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ' Right you best go find yourself a job ' , " he says . " The engines do n't look after themselves . You need to maintain them day after day to keep these girls running , but this place is not just what I do for a living it 's part of who I am . " During last season , a documentary crew were among the thousands to board one of the NYMR trains . The aim was to show what it takes to run Britain 's busiest steam railway and they followed the staff behind the scenes as they marked the line 's 50th anniversary . The series is now being shown on Channel 5 and , by the time the credits roll , Middleton is likely to have earned himself a few fans . So too will Chris Price . As general manager of the NYMR it 's his job to ensure that during the months it is open each year it earns the ? 7m needed to pay the annual maintenance and staffing bills . " That was why for the line 's 50th anniversary last year we hired the Royal Scot . At ? 2,000 a day it was n't cheap , but we need to give visitors a reason to keep coming back . " You have to remind yourself that not many people get the opportunity to see something like the Royal Scot as part of their day job and it is a privilege to do this for a living .

Two prominent SNP MPs have ruled themselves out of the contest to be the party 's new deputy leader , it has emerged . Edinburgh South West MP Joanna Cherry and Edinburgh East representative Tommy Sheppard have both announced they will not take part in the contest to replace Angus Robertson . Ms Cherry , the SNP home affairs spokeswoman , believes she can " best further the cause of independence in my current role " .

Mr Sheppard had been widely expected to stand after competing against Mr Robertson in the previous contest , but said he wanted a more active role in formulating policy .

" I want to be to free to contribute and lead debates about the policy we should advocate and that 's harder if you 're running the policy-making machinery , " he told the Sunday Herald . " And I think we 've had some success here .

An Italian woman who has been in hiding from the mafia for 27 years and unable to show her face publicly was elected as an MP for the Five Star Movement , encapsulating the extraordinary triumph of the anti-establishment party in the country 's elections . Piera Aiello , who was dubbed " the candidate without a face " by the Italian press , won 51 per cent of the vote in her constituency in Sicily , despite being unable to meet voters and campaign in the streets and piazzas . The 51-year-old ran her campaign largely through television interviews , but had to conceal her face with a scarf for fear of reprisals by the mob . Despite the obstacles , she won a resounding victory in her constituency around the town of Marsala in western Sicily , winning 20 points more than her nearest rival . " It was the culmination of a surreal election campaign , " one newspaper observed . Piera Aiello won a resounding victory in a constituency in Sicily.Credit : Getty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as a teenager she met a boy who happened to be the son of a local Cosa Nostra boss . She was later forced to marry the boy by his father . When the mafia don was murdered , the son vowed to avenge him . But before he could take the law into his own hands , a rival clan gunned him down in cold blood in 1991 . Ms Aiello fled Sicily and became a " pentita " or state witness , giving the authorities information about her husband 's family and its criminal activities . That made her a target for assassination by Cosa Nostra and she was forced into hiding , living under police protection . One of the investigating magistrates she collaborated with , Paolo Borsellino , was blown up by the mafia in a car bombing in 1992 . Matteo Renzi announces his resignation as head of the Democratic PartyCredit : Barcroft Now that she has been elected , her life is about to change radically . " I 'm going to come out of hiding @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " she told the Italian press . The startling success of Five Star was illustrated by another unusual case . A candidate in the Marche region of central Italy was caught up in an expenses scandal that broke before the election . Andrea Cecconi was suspended from Five Star but it was too late to take him off the ballot . Despite withdrawing from the campaign , and being dubbed " the ghost candidate " , he ended up being elected with a resounding 35 per cent of the vote . He managed to beat a formidable opponent -- Marco Minniti , the interior minister and the architect of deals with Libya that have been credited with drastically cutting the number of migrant boats reaching Italy . Mr Minniti is from the governing centre-Left Democratic Party ( PD ) , which suffered a debacle in the election and won just 19 per cent of votes . Now in a deep existential crisis , the party is in danger of tearing itself apart over whether to forge an alliance with Five Star so that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Star Movement nor the centre-Right coalition won enough votes to form a government , leaving the PD as a potential kingmaker . Matteo Salvini , the leader of the League.Credit : AFP Matteo Renzi , who has announced he will resign as head of the party but not until a new government is formed , is implacably opposed to a deal with Five Star , saying they hold " extremist " views on Europe , immigration and other issues . " They 're anti-European , anti-political and have used a language of hatred , " Mr Renzi wrote on Facebook . " They said we were corrupt , mafiosi , and that we have blood on our hands because of immigration . I do n't think they 've changed their mind overnight . " But others within the Democratic Party are in favour of a coalition with Five Star , should the opportunity arise .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks an NP object and does not involve a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'come out of' in a different context, referring to emerging from a state of hiding.

An Italian woman who has been in hiding from the mafia for 27 years and unable to show her face publicly was elected as an MP for the Five Star Movement , encapsulating the extraordinary triumph of the anti-establishment party in the country 's elections . Piera Aiello , who was dubbed " the candidate without a face " by the Italian press , won 51 per cent of the vote in her constituency in Sicily , despite being unable to meet voters and campaign in the streets and piazzas . The 51-year-old ran her campaign largely through television interviews , but had to conceal her face with a scarf for fear of reprisals by the mob . Despite the obstacles , she won a resounding victory in her constituency around the town of Marsala in western Sicily , winning 20 points more than her nearest rival . " It was the culmination of a surreal election campaign , " one newspaper observed . Piera Aiello won a resounding victory in a constituency in Sicily.Credit : Getty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as a teenager she met a boy who happened to be the son of a local Cosa Nostra boss . She was later forced to marry the boy by his father . When the mafia don was murdered , the son vowed to avenge him . But before he could take the law into his own hands , a rival clan gunned him down in cold blood in 1991 . Ms Aiello fled Sicily and became a " pentita " or state witness , giving the authorities information about her husband 's family and its criminal activities . That made her a target for assassination by Cosa Nostra and she was forced into hiding , living under police protection . One of the investigating magistrates she collaborated with , Paolo Borsellino , was blown up by the mafia in a car bombing in 1992 . Matteo Renzi announces his resignation as head of the Democratic PartyCredit : Barcroft Now that she has been elected , her life is about to change radically . " I 'm going to come out of hiding @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " she told the Italian press . The startling success of Five Star was illustrated by another unusual case . A candidate in the Marche region of central Italy was caught up in an expenses scandal that broke before the election . Andrea Cecconi was suspended from Five Star but it was too late to take him off the ballot . Despite withdrawing from the campaign , and being dubbed " the ghost candidate " , he ended up being elected with a resounding 35 per cent of the vote . He managed to beat a formidable opponent -- Marco Minniti , the interior minister and the architect of deals with Libya that have been credited with drastically cutting the number of migrant boats reaching Italy . Mr Minniti is from the governing centre-Left Democratic Party ( PD ) , which suffered a debacle in the election and won just 19 per cent of votes .

" They 're anti-European , anti-political and have used a language of hatred , " Mr Renzi wrote on Facebook . " They said we were corrupt , mafiosi , and that we have blood on our hands because of immigration . I do n't think they 've changed their mind overnight .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes a situation where the Kremlin might have killed someone to lure another person out of hiding, but it does not involve a verb in the V1 slot followed by an NP object and then 'out of' with a VP[-ing] predicate. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'made a career out of pronouncing' does not involve a causee NP object that participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The lines are drawn for the biggest battle in Brexit : the inclusion of financial services in a UK-EU trade deal . To date , the focus of negotiations has been on the treatment of goods post-Brexit . But it is rapidly reaching the point where financial services must take centre stage . This is big money and there is a great deal at stake . It 's true that Brexit is a threat to both sides , and the scale of the threat has been reflected in the markets recently . Public companies exposed to both the UK and EU have seen their shares slide as investors bet on a bad Brexit outcome . London is the world 's leading financial centre . The Z/Yen global financial centres index ( GFCI ) 2017 puts the city at number one despite Brexit uncertainty , with rivals Frankfurt at 11 and Paris down at 26 . Services account for 45% of total UK exports ; financial services exported from London account for 13% of that total and more than one-third of UK services exports have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Digging In But is there a way forward ? And as time grows short , and exhaustion sets in , will sense prevail ? Despite the bluster , there is enough common ground to reach a deal that , while unsatisfactory to some , will allow UK financial services to function within the EU , and vice versa . Of course , it is still early days and the mentality on both sides remains defensive . Michel Barnier is digging in his heels , insisting that financial services can not be part of any EU-UK deal : " There is no place for financial services . There is not a single trade agreement that is open to financial services . It does n't exist . " Backing up this stance , Stefaan de Rynck , chief adviser to Barnier made a speech at the London School of Economics this week . In it he made clear the Eurozone 's current position on financial services : " The EU has moved away in the wake of the financial crisis from mutual recognition of national standards to a centralised @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and single supervisory structures . " The EU is a political entity with clear objectives , rules and regulations -- and anyone that doubts this determination to stick with the programme need only to listen to President of the EU Commission , Jean-Claude Juncker : " We need a budget to achieve our aims . The budget for us is therefore not an accounting tool , but a means to achieve our political goals . " This lack of creativity and fluidity should come as no surprise to UK negotiators . Economic alignment is an integral part of the future of the EU , and the only way the bloc believes it can deliver on its priorities . According to a reflection paper on the future of EU finances published last year : " Reducing economic and social divergences between and within Member States is crucial for a Union that aims for a highly competitive social market economy aiming at full employment and social progress . It is of vital importance for the euro area , where divergences put at stake the sustainable @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " But this insistence on rigid control and unstoppable convergence has not played out in the EU 's favour and has increasingly led to questions about mismanagement by unelected institutions . As Francesco Fici has written on Market Mogul in the past : " Furthermore , the poor mismanagement of the Eurozone by unelected institutions such as the ECB , European Commission and IMF has reinforced a long-standing view of the EU as a technocratic and unthinking bureaucracy . " This view is widespread and puts a positive complexion on the British attitude to finding a solution rather than digging in their heels . For example , today UK Chancellor Philip Hammond will insist that financial services must be part of the EU-UK deal : " I am clear not only that it is possible to include financial services within a trade deal but that it is very much in our mutual interest to do so . " The inclusion of financial services rests on the precedent set by the Canada-EU deal , CETA . The document lays out the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whole section to the inclusion of services , accepting that " with regard to services and investment ... CETA constitutes the most comprehensive trade agreement the EU has ever concluded . It contains commitments on both sides with regard to discriminatory measures and quantitative restrictions across all sectors as well as broad regulatory provisions on key sectors such as financial or telecommunication services . " The CETA agreement is far from perfect . It allows limited access both ways , does not include any form of ' passporting ' and is largely based on World Trade Agreement standards . But to dismiss CETA out of hand misses the point . The very fact that services are mentioned at all sets a precedent that can not now be ignored by the EU , or the UK . In fact , as the EU itself acknowledges , CETA is the most comprehensive services deal the EU has ever done and it shows that the EU is willing to act on financial services when it needs to . Many have made a career out of pronouncing that the EU is the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ But they have a lot to lose and a big hole in the EU budget to fill . They will move financial services and they will be included in the final Brexit deal . It 's just going to take a few more months to get there . |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'Alabama campground owners' (NP subject) + 'pulled' (V1) + 'themselves' (NP object) + 'out of being the hosting grounds for the event' (VP2[-ing] predicate). It also allows for a reflexive NP object coreferential with the subject, which is an atypical but acceptable type of NP object in the transitive out of -ing construction. The interpretation is a movement/extraction interpretation, as the campground owners caused themselves to move out of being the hosting grounds for the event.

A kinky renaissance festival proved to be too hot for Alabama campground owners , who pulled themselves out of being the hosting grounds for the event after hearing that ' sexual play ' and intoxicant use was being advertised in event fliers . The Georgia-based Southeast Dark Ages Festival -- which bills itself as ' 21 and up adults only Renaissance Festival ' -- had booked the Southern Pillar Campground in Pike County , Alabama , from March 23 to 25 . But , campground owners Patrick Faircloth and his wife , Laurel , said that they were unaware of exactly what the renaissance festival would involve until March 2 , when they heard about a promotional flier that was being circulated in the neighborhood , detailing a ' weekend of fun-filled debauchery ' and ' sexual play . ' The owners of Southern Pillar Campground cancelled the weekend reservation of an adults-only renaissance festival after learning it was advertising ' sexual play ' and intoxicate use The Georgia-based Southeast Dark Ages Festival 's weekend offerings were to include a ' Protocol dinner , ' featuring fetish standards like a whipping boy and human @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' and ' consensual kink ' would be monitored during the three day festival and referred to intoxicants . Patrick said that neither he nor his wife had been consulted about the contents of the flier . ' When I became aware of it , I immediately said I 'm not in support of this , ' Patrick said , noting that the campground does not allow alcohol use on site . ' Now , if someone wants to rent it out for a bachelor party or something , we consider that an ' adult weekend . ' But some of the stuff in their flier could be construed as illegal , ' Patrick added . The Southeast Dark Ages Festival has removed event details from both its Facebook page and website . However , an example of a featured activity at the event was revealed on Twitter on February 28 , just days before the Faircloths were alerted to the event 's flier . Festival organizers tweeted that campground neighbors planned to protest the event . Two days later , they announced that the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's owners and their family Single tickets were being flogged for $35 , with couple seats going for $50 . The Pike County Sheriff , Russell Thomas , said that he had been approached by neighborhood residents who expressed concern about the festival . On March 6 , festival organizers tweeted , ' Seems the locals to venue are planning to protest event , ' and added the hashtags ' #wewillnotbebullied #fearisovercomewithlove #knowledgeispower . ' Patrick told the Troy Messenger that he and his wife consulted an attorney before telling festival organizers that they were cancelling their reservation on March 7 , the day after the organizer 's tweet . ' If it was a different thing they would have been doing , it would have brought a lot of money to people 's businesses and revenue for the campground , of course , but it does n't matter how much revenue was going to be generated , that kind of thing is n't going to happen here , ' Patrick said .

Dr Harneet Walia of the Cleveland Clinic said the best way to make up for that time is to prepare yourself during the week before : " Begin by going to bed 15 to 30 minutes earlier than your usual bedtime " . The extra early morning sunlight will also help your body adjust but she said it is best to avoid naps over 20 minutes long to make sure your nighttime sleep is not interrupted .

Benjamin Franklin , one of the Founding Fathers of the US and a noted polymath , came up with the idea of resetting clocks during the summer in order to save energy . The practice became widespread on 21 March 1918 as a way to reduce the number of hours homes needed to use lighting and electricity . It became a federal law in the US in 1966 , but some states opted out of observing it . Arizona , American Samoa , Hawaii , Guam , the Northern Mariana Islands , Puerto Rico , and the US Virgin Islands do not lose an hour during their days - except for protected lands of the Navajo Native American tribe in Arizona , who do observe the time change . As if Mondays were n't hard enough , the missed sleep and harsh sunlight after a long , dark winter can throw some people off .

The Journal of Applied Psychology published a 2009 study that showed an increase in workplace injuries on the Monday after Daylight Savings Time from 1983 to 2006 , as well .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to be asking about the benefits or results of an action, which is not characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'built a career out of expressing myself freely' involves an NP ('a career') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and 'expressing' modifies the following head noun 'myself freely'. It does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, nor does it involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

The Cambridge professor passed away at 76 , his family said in a statement . Professor Hawking had lived with the expectation of an early death for much of his life . When he was diagnosed with motor neurone disease at 21 , it was expected to take him in just a few years -- but he lived for more than 50 , continuing to reveal the universe 's darkest secrets and becoming a medical miracle at the same time . Professor Hawking said that living with the disease and the prognosis that came with it had given him a philosophical approach to his own death . But there was always plenty more he wanted to get out of the way before it happened . " I have lived with the prospect of an early death for the last 49 years . I 'm not afraid of death , but I 'm in no hurry to die . I have so much I want to do first , " he told The Guardian in 2011 . In the same interview , Professor Hawking dismissed the comforts of belief in the afterlife , and said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail , " he said . " There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers ; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark . " But he said that there was no need for there to be life after death to make people behave well while they were alive . " We should seek the greatest value of our action , " he said , when asked how we should live .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('Traders in the city' + 'frightens' + 'members of the public' + 'out of using their businesses'). It also fits the semantic criteria: the verb 'frightens' falls under the category of arousing fear, and the sentence has a prevention interpretation ('frightens members of the public out of using their businesses' can be paraphrased as 'prevents members of the public from using their businesses by means of frightening'). The NP object 'members of the public' functions as a causee, and the construction induces a prevention interpretation.

BRAZEN drug use and dealing on the streets of Oxford have prompted a multi-agency crackdown on offences in the city . The police , councils and charities have come together to stamp out drug-related crime amid startling reports of users injecting heroin in the city centre in broad daylight . Since mid-February police have made more than 20 arrests in the city centre and surrounding areas for drug dealing - at an average of four per week . Traders in the city said some streets are so badly affected it frightens members of the public out of using their businesses . Tom Hayes , Oxford City Council lead on community safety , said cuts to police and council services have helped a culture of open drug use and dealing blossom . He said : " More people are publicly taking drugs . More drug deals are taking place publicly in more parts of Oxford . " It has gone too far . Local authorities have been cut to the bone and it is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ invest in this issue . " But the feeling is that it 's too important not to be the best possible partner to police , who are working flat out to protect the vulnerable . " Many business owners paint a disturbing picture of inner city life -- with many saying the issue has directly impeded business . Amanda Suliman Bell , manager of Rainbow and Spoon Boutique in Frideswide Square , said : " It has a great effect on the business . It 's really worrying for people walking by when drug users are rolling round ... it is off-putting . " " They make this road look scary . People are n't crossing the road , because they see people and they 're scared so they 're not coming in . " I 've found drugs on the road myself . " Meshel Alkersh of Station Barbers , also in Frideswide Square , echoed the same concerns . The 35-year-old said : " We have had the new square and roadworks for weeks and now we have people using drugs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had an effect -- my shop is empty . People are scared to cross the road . " I know that the neighbours are really concerned too . " The city council , which last year collected more than 5,000 discarded needles in the city , will fund two PCSO roles to help bolster the police force and provide a deterrent to drug dealers and users . Meanwhile , Thames Valley Police continues to arrest dealers as part of its long-running Stronghold campaign . Oxford city police commander superintendent Joe Kidman said : " We fully recognise the impact that drugs can have on communities . " This is the cruel face of organised crime bringing violence , crime and exploitation onto our streets . While the issues are complex and extend beyond our city , our partners have made a firm and positive commitment to work together and do all we can to tackle this menace and keep people in our city safe . " The breadth and depth of this challenge is serious but we have already seen a positive impact on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The Oxford Safer Communities Partnership , which includes Thames Valley Police , local authorities , health and voluntary organisations , has allocated additional funding and resources to tackle drug hotspots . It works together to share information , bring offenders to justice , safeguard children and vulnerable adults who are being exploited by offenders and work with communities to help keep areas safe . The apparent rise in public drug use is linked to the changing nature of dealing . County lines , named as a priority by police in Oxford earlier this year , refers to a technique adopted by gangs in areas like London and Birmingham in which they expand their drug market into other counties , often exploiting children and vulnerable people in the process . Tackling the complex process can involve safeguarding children and is dealt with jointly by police , along with the city council and Oxfordshire County Council . Police and crime commissioner for the Thames Valley , Anthony Stansfeld , talked about the problems that county lines dealing creates for the force . He said : " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's unique to the Thames Valley -- rather , it happens all over the country . " Drug gangs based in major cities like London and Birmingham and so forth will bring drugs into the county . " You clear up one gang at a local level and another one appears from the same city . " It 's an ongoing problem and we are not going to make it go away until the supply of drugs coming into the country is stopped . " Despite the apparent rise in public drug use and dealing , drug use is actually understood to be on the decline . Andy Symons , senior operations manager at addiction charity Turning Point , said he had received reports about a rise in public usage -- but said that nationally the number of drug users was declining . He added : " It is concerning when there is public drug use . " We 've had experiences in which users come to us and say it 's difficult to score and so want to talk more about treatment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't want to see open drug markets and so we 're really supportive of the partnership approach . " In 2016 Oxford City Council received 633 reports of discarded needles . In 2017 the number rose to 914 and a total of 5,516 ' sharps ' were collected . The Office for National Statistics found there were 27 deaths related to drugs misuse in Oxford between 2014 and 2016 . This equates to 6.5 deaths per 100,000 people , above the Oxfordshire rate of 2.7 and the average across England of 4.2 .

Arsenal 's Danny Welbeck celebrates his second and Arsenal 's third against Milan as H ? ctor Beller ? n watches on . Photograph : Andrew Fosker/Seconds Left/Rex/Shutterstock Danny Welbeck thought about it . He had felt the slightest touch from the Milan left-back , Ricardo Rodr ? guez , inside the area and he went down . The official behind the goal thought about it some more . The seconds ticked by . Milan were unconcerned . But then , a crackle across the airwaves and there was the Swedish referee , Jonas Eriksson , pointing to the spot . Milan erupted with rage . Arsenal could sense their place in the Europa League quarter-finals . Welbeck scored and , at long last , Ars ? ne Wenger could feel his luck was in . The Arsenal manager 's team had trailed to Hakan Calhanoglu 's long-range blast and , at that point , things could have turned angsty . Instead , Welbeck had them back in charge . The impression it was Arsenal 's night was reinforced when Granit Xhaka made the tie safe on 71 minutes . Again , there had been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ outside the area looked routine for Gianluigi Donnarumma . Yet the young hope of Italian goalkeeping fumbled dreadfully and that was that . There was even time for Welbeck to add a late third , after Donnarumma had parried Aaron Ramsey 's header . There were fears beforehand of another low Emirates Stadium turnout ; more refuseniks angry at the club 's direction under Wenger . It did not materialise and there was something fortifying about the sight of a virtual full house roaring the team on . The official attendance of 58,973 looked right , for a change . Milan came to play and they were understandably aggrieved about the penalty , even if the manager , Rino Gattuso , refused to use it as an " alibi " for the defeat . Arsenal wobbled at the start and they were relieved when the Milan striker Andr ? Silva -- in yards of space -- found only the side-netting after 46 seconds . But Wenger 's team tried to get on to the front foot and they created chances . This competition has long since come @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , possibly , Wenger too . The dream of crashing into the Champions League via the back door continues to burn . Read more Calhanoglu fashioned his goal out of nothing . He cut across his right-footed shot from 25 yards and got the ball to dip and fade into the far corner . David Ospina was powerless . The fear from the Arsenal point of view was it would prompt a collective panic ; a reawakening of the demons that have gripped them all too regularly this season . But as the crowd stayed with them , they responded -- with a helping hand from the officials . When Welbeck went down , Wenger 's words from last month resonated . " I remember there were tremendous cases here when foreign players did it , " he said , with regard to diving . " But English players have learned very quickly and they might be the masters now . " The Italian media put questions to Gattuso about how England @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Not here . Welbeck 's conversion was clinical and Milan would be further incensed moments later when Calum Chambers , who had replaced Laurent Koscielny -- the victim of a back injury -- felt the ball hit his hand inside the area . No penalty . Danny Welbeck goes down under minimal contact from Ricardo Rodr ? guez to earn a penalty that should never have been given . Photograph : Marc Atkins/Offside/Getty Images Arsenal were not convincing at the back but they could point to a clutch of chances in the first half . Welbeck put a move on Leonardo Bonucci in the 25th minute before seeing Donnarumma block at the near post ; Ramsey worked the goalkeeper immediately after Calhanoglu 's goal and , in first half stoppage time , Welbeck touched back for Henrikh Mkhitaryan , who nodded wide , and Jack Wilshere extended Donnarumma with a decent hit . Milan 's challenge in the second half was to put the penalty decision behind them , which was hard . The injustice burned . Their supporters had whistled the big-screen replays of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ roundup : Atl ? tico Madrid cruise into quarter-finals Read more Arsenal were eager to draw Milan 's sting with periods of possession but the visitors pushed .

Silva also went down in the area , looking for a penalty . He might claim that it worked for Welbeck . Mkhitaryan and Ramsey had half-chances at the beginning of the second half but it was Milan who came to knock on the door . The substitute , Nikola Kalinic , blew a free header and Wenger was sufficiently worried to introduce Mohamed Elneny as a third man in midfield .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes the star dropping out of an event (headlining the Martha's Vineyard Concert series) due to an undisclosed reason, which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action. The phrase 'dropped out of headlining' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the construction.

In our rankings the Co-op and M&S come out on top of the rankings . " Many products claim to be ethical -- but how do we know to what extent they are ? As you browse the aisles dazzled by products that look so green , healthy and wholesome , it 's sometimes difficult to know what 's truly ethical . Tim Hunt recommends looking out for independent accreditation and certification , like the Fairtrade or Soil Association mark . " It 's a great way for consumers to know that they are buying from a brand that has taken some degree of responsibility . " He points out that " there are environmental criteria within the Fairtrade label " and also that there is " some degree of workers protection in , for example , the Soil Association 's accreditation " . With more complex , multi-part products it 's also often nigh impossible to get a full picture of their ethical profile . Technology is starting to help us here . As Jen Gale @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ called ' Where Does It Come From ? ' . Everything they sell comes with a barcode and you can put the barcode into their website and it will tell you where the cotton was grown , who harvested it . It will literally allow you to trace your garment all the way along the supply chain . " Startups are also turning to developing technology that traces products . Among those at the forefront is UK startup , Provenance , which has been devising means of following tuna from " hook to fork " , and , with the London-based designer Martine Jarlgaard , of creating an app that creates a digital history of a garment 's journey . Would n't it be easiest just , like Gale , not to buy anything new ? To some extent , yes . Stick with what you 've got , or buy something used . Many activists observe that this is often the best option even when the newer products promise to have lower emissions or be more energy efficient , even when buying new seems like upgrading @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ points out : " Research has shown that the carbon footprint of making a new car is so much more than driving an old one around . " Mike Berners-Lee , for instance , has calculated that for a Volkswagen Golf , the total amount of carbon dioxide produced in five years ' motoring was only half that involved in buying a new car . But it all sounds such hard work Not really , say those who practice it . Duncan Wallace , for instance , argues that this is a misconception . " When you decide to use ethics in terms of shopping and being a consumer , it makes choices easier because there 's less choice . You 're no longer , for instance , faced with 58 types of phone , but one or two phone companies that would fit your ethics . " Is n't it just a luxury trend for posh people ? That certainly is its image , partly a side-effect of the fact that so many ethical products are marketed as luxury brands , and that items that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It 's also true that ethical consumption has become a marker of social status in the way that conspicuous consumption once was . In The Sum Of Small Things , Professor Elizabeth Currid-Halkett described such a trend amongst the " aspirational class " in America , who " earnestly buy organic , carry NPR National Public Radio , seen as a liberal choice tote bags and breast feed their babies " . Of course , that does n't mean that an ethical approach is strictly the privilege of the rich . Indeed many very dedicated conscientious consumers do n't belong to that elite , and the fact that younger generations are shopping with this awareness , suggests it 's already beginning to shrug off some of that elite association . But there remains a danger that ethical consumption is just another consumer trend . Even the term suggests that it 's just part of a wider phenomenon in which we define ourselves through shopping . And does it even work in the first place ? Some academics have argued that its impact is not significant . Dr @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ethical consumption is premised on the idea that what you buy and who you buy from will positively impact on how the world works . This can possibly work with small , local companies producing and selling simple products - particularly if you can actually talk to business decision-makers . However , with major corporations the impact of your decisions will sum to nil . " He points out that when we purchase , or do n't purchase , no information as to why you are doing so it communicated to the corporation . Hathaway 's belief is that shopping can be a distraction from real political action . " Market outcomes are a product of how we have built markets . It is this that we should focus on - the rebuilding of markets so that goals beyond narrow profit-making are included . " But , actually , ethical consumers agree with some of this . Often they talk of other means of pushing for political change . And many , in fact , in addition to voting with their money , advocate the importance of talking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " There is virtually no point in boycotting Nestle , unless you write a letter to Nestle , or to the supermarket that stocks Nestle . Because otherwise you are making yourself have a bit more pain without the company noticing it . " What does work then ? There have been plenty of examples of large-scale company boycotts that have had a significant impact . Divesting from companies that are unethical also sends out a strong message -- but again , only , if you communicate it . But , one of the most effective ways of producing change , is to work for infrastructure change within the shopping environment of you own community . A 2009 Economic and Social Research Council report found the best way of creating ethical consumption was not to push for individuals to shop more consciously , but to create collective projects like the creation of Fairtrade cities and towns , that make it easier for people to make more ethical choices . And , if there 's a universal theme emerging , it 's that shopping local and buying from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " The more you shorten the supply chain , " Terry Hathaway says , " and get close to the people who decide on how items are produced the more capability you have of influencing through purchasing . " Ethical hacks Switch banks Where you keep your money matters , particularly if you care about whether your bank lends to fossil fuels and energy-intensive industries . Culpable on this have been Barclays and HSBC . The Banking on Climate Change 2017 report , revealed that these two banks scored badly on unconventional oil and liquid natural gas exports . There are , meanwhile , a few banks with strong ethical principles you can switch to . For instance , both Wallace and Gale , recommend Triodos , a Netherlands-based ethical bank with robust green credentials . Ethical tech We live in a tech world of constant new models and upgrades . Consider each time you buy new , that every mobile phone generates 94kg of carbon dioxide emissions in its lifetime . Only one mobile phone company markets itself as an ethical product and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with clean-trading and sustainability at its heart . The phone , which looks like a normal phone , and uses Android , can also be taken apart , piece by piece , making it easily repairable , and the idea is that the device will stay with its owner for many years . Or you can go second-hand . Jen Gale admits to being an iPhone user , but explains that whenever she needs to move on , because the model is no longer updating , she buys a used phone from eBay . She also recommends trusted technology refurbishers like The Edinburgh Remakery . " It feels like the tech companies are forcing you to upgrade a lot of the time . So it feels almost a little bit disruptive , a little bit rebellious to look for alternatives .

As you browse the aisles dazzled by products that look so green , healthy and wholesome , it 's sometimes difficult to know what 's truly ethical . Tim Hunt recommends looking out for independent accreditation and certification , like the Fairtrade or Soil Association mark . " It 's a great way for consumers to know that they are buying from a brand that has taken some degree of responsibility . " He points out that " there are environmental criteria within the Fairtrade label " and also that there is " some degree of workers protection in , for example , the Soil Association 's accreditation " . With more complex , multi-part products it 's also often nigh impossible to get a full picture of their ethical profile . Technology is starting to help us here . As Jen Gale @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ called ' Where Does It Come From ? ' . Everything they sell comes with a barcode and you can put the barcode into their website and it will tell you where the cotton was grown , who harvested it . It will literally allow you to trace your garment all the way along the supply chain . " Startups are also turning to developing technology that traces products . Among those at the forefront is UK startup , Provenance , which has been devising means of following tuna from " hook to fork " , and , with the London-based designer Martine Jarlgaard , of creating an app that creates a digital history of a garment 's journey . Would n't it be easiest just , like Gale , not to buy anything new ? To some extent , yes . Stick with what you 've got , or buy something used . Many activists observe that this is often the best option even when the newer products promise to have lower emissions or be more energy efficient , even when buying new seems like upgrading @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ points out : " Research has shown that the carbon footprint of making a new car is so much more than driving an old one around . " Mike Berners-Lee , for instance , has calculated that for a Volkswagen Golf , the total amount of carbon dioxide produced in five years ' motoring was only half that involved in buying a new car . But it all sounds such hard work Not really , say those who practice it . Duncan Wallace , for instance , argues that this is a misconception . " When you decide to use ethics in terms of shopping and being a consumer , it makes choices easier because there 's less choice . You 're no longer , for instance , faced with 58 types of phone , but one or two phone companies that would fit your ethics . " Is n't it just a luxury trend for posh people ? That certainly is its image , partly a side-effect of the fact that so many ethical products are marketed as luxury brands , and that items that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It 's also true that ethical consumption has become a marker of social status in the way that conspicuous consumption once was . In The Sum Of Small Things , Professor Elizabeth Currid-Halkett described such a trend amongst the " aspirational class " in America , who " earnestly buy organic , carry NPR National Public Radio , seen as a liberal choice tote bags and breast feed their babies " . Of course , that does n't mean that an ethical approach is strictly the privilege of the rich . Indeed many very dedicated conscientious consumers do n't belong to that elite , and the fact that younger generations are shopping with this awareness , suggests it 's already beginning to shrug off some of that elite association . But there remains a danger that ethical consumption is just another consumer trend . Even the term suggests that it 's just part of a wider phenomenon in which we define ourselves through shopping . And does it even work in the first place ? Some academics have argued that its impact is not significant . Dr @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ethical consumption is premised on the idea that what you buy and who you buy from will positively impact on how the world works . This can possibly work with small , local companies producing and selling simple products - particularly if you can actually talk to business decision-makers . However , with major corporations the impact of your decisions will sum to nil . " He points out that when we purchase , or do n't purchase , no information as to why you are doing so it communicated to the corporation . Hathaway 's belief is that shopping can be a distraction from real political action . " Market outcomes are a product of how we have built markets . It is this that we should focus on - the rebuilding of markets so that goals beyond narrow profit-making are included . " But , actually , ethical consumers agree with some of this . Often they talk of other means of pushing for political change . And many , in fact , in addition to voting with their money , advocate the importance of talking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " There is virtually no point in boycotting Nestle , unless you write a letter to Nestle , or to the supermarket that stocks Nestle . Because otherwise you are making yourself have a bit more pain without the company noticing it . " What does work then ? There have been plenty of examples of large-scale company boycotts that have had a significant impact . Divesting from companies that are unethical also sends out a strong message -- but again , only , if you communicate it . But , one of the most effective ways of producing change , is to work for infrastructure change within the shopping environment of you own community . A 2009 Economic and Social Research Council report found the best way of creating ethical consumption was not to push for individuals to shop more consciously , but to create collective projects like the creation of Fairtrade cities and towns , that make it easier for people to make more ethical choices . And , if there 's a universal theme emerging , it 's that shopping local and buying from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " The more you shorten the supply chain , " Terry Hathaway says , " and get close to the people who decide on how items are produced the more capability you have of influencing through purchasing . " Ethical hacks Switch banks Where you keep your money matters , particularly if you care about whether your bank lends to fossil fuels and energy-intensive industries . Culpable on this have been Barclays and HSBC . The Banking on Climate Change 2017 report , revealed that these two banks scored badly on unconventional oil and liquid natural gas exports . There are , meanwhile , a few banks with strong ethical principles you can switch to . For instance , both Wallace and Gale , recommend Triodos , a Netherlands-based ethical bank with robust green credentials . Ethical tech We live in a tech world of constant new models and upgrades . Consider each time you buy new , that every mobile phone generates 94kg of carbon dioxide emissions in its lifetime . Only one mobile phone company markets itself as an ethical product and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with clean-trading and sustainability at its heart . The phone , which looks like a normal phone , and uses Android , can also be taken apart , piece by piece , making it easily repairable , and the idea is that the device will stay with its owner for many years . Or you can go second-hand . Jen Gale admits to being an iPhone user , but explains that whenever she needs to move on , because the model is no longer updating , she buys a used phone from eBay . She also recommends trusted technology refurbishers like The Edinburgh Remakery . " It feels like the tech companies are forcing you to upgrade a lot of the time . So it feels almost a little bit disruptive , a little bit rebellious to look for alternatives . " Get into your YouTube fixes Rather than dumping that broken down washing machine or toaster in landfill , or even getting in a repair person to tell you it 's not worth mending , why not get an empowerment kick out of fixing it yourself @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ YouTube that can help with this . " Manufacturers , " says Gale , " like to spread this thing that stuff is n't repairable . More stuff is repairable than we are led to believe . For instance , our washing machine was n't working , and YouTube is awesome . We went on it and found there were these little brushes that had worn down completely . We got a new set of them off eBay for two quid and it 's fixed .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'opting out of something' involves an NP ('something') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and it does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no causer-causee relationship or a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Today , as I write , it is my daughter Rosie 's fifth birthday . It 's been a belly-laughing joyous celebration . As I sit here typing this I 'm watching Rosie , her siblings and cousins wrap the day up on the trampoline laughing till they can not breathe . And I find myself reflecting - it 's five years then , since the worst day of my life . Rosie being born , unexpectedly , with Down 's Syndrome was the most pivotal event that has shaped the people my wife and I are today . It was a fork in the road that redefined us , forcing us into a new frame of reference never to be undone . I still remember part of the worst day of my life included probably the worst telephone conversation of my life . It went something like this : Loading article content " Mum ...... " " Hi ! " " Mum ...... " " Everything ok ? " " ......... " " What 's wrong ? " " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " " The baby .... " ( To my surprise , I could n't get the words out . I think I realised at this point that I had n't said it out loud at all yet . ) " JAMIE ? WHAT IS IT ? ? ? " " ( I 'm quite sure a basket of new-born-baby related shopping got dropped all over Marks & Spencer 's floor at this point . ) " She .... has ...... D ...... D ..... Down 's Syndrome " I think of that conversation now and all I can think of is how appallingly ignorant my side of it was . Fast forward to present day and I 'm sitting on my couch texting multi-platinum selling pop star Christina Perri and her husband in LA about support for the World Down Syndrome Day initiatives that we 're working on this year . My social media pinging constantly with communication from PR professionals and print and television media . My wife Victoria and I have been drawn into debates about the ethics of screening @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ society and appeared in print and on radio . The experience has transported me personally from spouting liberal platitudes on the periphery to centre-stage first-hand experience of the major shifts against society 's most vulnerable in recent years . In Rosie 's mere five years , we 've witnessed the decline of the public sector support that helps her across countless important areas where early-intervention can make a life-long impact . We have watched as one-to-one support in areas like communication changed to become one-to-many group sessions then virtually nothing at all . On the flip side , it 's been heartwarming for us to see our schoolteachers becoming perpetually more creative with their resources . No-matter what happens , our experience has been that Rosie 's school never lose sight of prioritising the provision of the right learning environment to all children regardless of their needs , and worrying about how it will be resourced next . Something which can not be easy on a backdrop of these ever increasing constraints . I guess " easy " would be taking in only " easy " kids . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ After a small number of decades of change that has resulted in those with Down 's Syndrome going from lifelong institutionalisation in the so-called " Asylum for Idiots " to a present day where independent living , work , marriage and even degree-level education for the highest fliers is a reality , it seems that the clock is under threat of turning back in the UK . Before long headteachers targeted on academic attainment may be forced to discourage those with special needs , integration will diminish , the discrimination of the past could reappear along with the government institutions . We got first hand experience this year of an example of the creeping government contempt for society 's most vulnerable when we encountered the dreaded " DLA " application process . Not something I 'd ever even heard of before Rosie came along and , thankfully , something most people never have to encounter . DLA ( Disability Living Allowance ) is also the rubber stamp from the government on a child 's additional needs that opens up access to the services that will help them throughout their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enquiring whether or not your child is expected to live beyond six months so you know which section to fill out first . The robotic nightmare continues from there , forensically analysing your child 's most negative traits to spot holes in the government 's obligation to help them , resulting in a document that would break your foot were you to drop it . Right now thousands of parents up and down the country are pulling together the exact same document in the exact same way in an attempt prove what are already established facts about the effects of one of the most well known conditions in existence . Then dealing with assessors so knowledgeable that parents report being asked questions as cerebral as " So , when did your daughter catch Down 's Syndrome ? " This year we 've produced a video called " 50 Mums 50 Kids 1 Extra Chromosome " which you can see on the Sunday Herald website right now . It shows 50 mums with their children who have Down 's Syndrome having fun doing " Carpool Karaoke " lip syncing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Christina Perri . The mums are also using Makaton Sign Language - the simplified version of British Sign Language , popularised by Cbeebies star Mr Tumble , designed to aid speech development for people with communication challenges . I 've been blown away by the community aspect of what made this possible . From a suggestion of a mum on a Facebook page we put together a few instructions , set up a dropbox account and a deadline and the videos started rolling in . After I spent several late nights pulling it together and privately shared the first draft behind a password we got 1500 views in 24 hours with virtually everyone crying happy tears within moments of watching . We knew we were onto something that crossed into a mainstream audience - simply , parents who identified with other parents who loved their kids irrespective of their differences . The mothers on the Facebook page where the idea began then got together like a PR army with astounding consequences - a skilled and tenacious group of over a hundred people connected only by having a child @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ contacted the media and celebrities to promote their video as much as possible . Meanwhile , I took a chance and attempted to contact Christina Perri , the artist who 's song featured in our video , via her husband 's Twitter account . Not only did the couple declare their support but , in a serendipitous turn of events , it turned out that he himself is something of a Down 's Syndrome advocate , having made the iconic video " More Alike Than Different " for the exact same event - World Down Syndrome Day - 3 years ago . Our video only went live on Friday and has got nearly a million views already , sending the positive message that I have always tried to get across in these articles - this condition is not something to be feared . People do n't " suffer " from Down 's Syndrome - 97% of people with Down 's Syndrome and their siblings and families report that they are happier for having the condition in their lives . So not only is it the case that " it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ actually brings its benefits and is likely to enrich your experience of life and that of all of your children . Hence our video 's campaign message : #wouldntchangeathing . What an odd paradox then when you consider a similarly high statistic - 94% - of parents choose termination when they receive a Down 's Syndrome diagnosis during pregnancy . Imagine for a moment removing all of the stigma in your mind and just deal with the evidence - 94% of people are opting out of something that has a 97% chance of making them happier . That 's not a criticism of those who make that choice . I 've always been quite honest that , had I known , I 'd probably have wished to make it too . The difference is that I now realise the ignorance that would have driven that wish . I am a proponent of people being able to make an informed choice and these statistics tell me that something is very wrong with the provision of information on this condition as it stands today . Because we , and every @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ thing . They all , virtually without exception , want to shout from the rooftops how different this experience is from what they expected . They often describe it ( given the odds of having a child with DS ) as having " won the jackpot " . They want to let people know that it is not only fine , but good . For all the minor differences , our lives are far more normal than they are different . Something I am reminded of at dinner-time every evening when having to tell all three kids to stop saying " poo " at the table . And where our lives are different - I now realise that different does not equal negative . Differences can be highly positive experiences too . I do n't want to sugar-coat things . Clearly there are challenges , of course there are . The type of aforementioned government battles you face are a good example . But there are challenges with all children . Your challenges are your life . However , now , when I see the ripple effect on others @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ teachers - I believe that , on-balance , the benefits of diversity outweigh the challenges that her intellectual learning disability brings . Intellect , in some ways , is a subjective notion . Are n't we all , afterall , just **26;116;TOOLONG monkeys ourselves ? Sentient sacks of water wearing makeup and jeans with our highest ranking monkeys focussed on blowing things up ? At least Rosie brings joy . She brings a character that is a force to be reckoned with that carries no-end of high-jinks , mischief and hilarity . Provided her condition in itself brings no pain then I struggle now to think why I would have an issue with that . I often imagine life as the ultimate , cosmological fairground ride - as if we 're all beings that chose a bespoke ride where you only get one go . I wonder sometimes , if that were true , what would I choose from the menu ? Would I choose to be a Trump-esque billionaire surrounded by limitless money , a private airliner and sycophantic " yes men " at the expense of genuine @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what I know now , would I choose this journey I 'm on ? Honestly ... I think I would . Every time . Our fears in the early days were things like : Will she speak ? Will she learn ? Will she be totally dependant upon us forever more ? How much of a drain will this be on our lives ? None of which look like they will play out . Ironically , while we were worried about never-ending dependency , I 'm quite sure now that when she leaves home we 'll be grabbing a leg each attempting to convince her to stay . In reality , our energy now goes on the external environment . So it turns out that , while I thought I 'd be teaching my child about the world , I find my energy goes into teaching the world about my child . One example of which you are reading right now . Those of you who have followed my previous articles on Rosie 's birthday and World Down Syndrome Day these last five years may recall my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ experience to that of a new pet . In an attempt to get my head round things I thought " They 're not as smart as us but you can love them all the same . " Even now I still shudder at that . I 've learned that it 's possible to look up to your children . I find myself attempting to learn from my seven-year-old daughter Abigail when I see how she automatically sees past other 's disabilities at some of the events we attend . I want to take notes . Grab her formula . " How DID you just do that ? " I think . I love that neither she nor her three-year-old brother Gregor nor their cousins and many friends will ever be cursed with the affliction of learned prejudice - simply because they have Rosie in their lives . A friend told us the other day that her son , who has known Rosie since birth , simply could n't understand why she was in tears watching our online video . Because according to him ( said with age-appropriate angst @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ordinary kids singing in the car with their mums ! " It 's an odd-sounding triumph , but it 's that type of nonchalance from someone from the next generation that simply can not help but see Rosie first before her condition that has me high-fiving inside . I read a positive quote online recently , which I Googled wondering what insightful scholar had said it . The quote was " we would never learn anything if we were all born the same . " I thought quite deeply about how the connotations of that phrase were so literally true . When I could n't find it anywhere I went back to the source where I had originally read it . The woman who posted it told me that the quote was actually from her eight-year-old daughter , Emme . How can someone so young be so much more insightful than you or I ? Because Emme 's sister , Thea , has Down 's syndrome . Well , fancy that .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'move employees out of time-consuming clerical roles' involves moving employees out of roles (a noun phrase), not out of an -ing verb phrase. Additionally, there is no clear movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as defined for the transitive out of -ing construction.

DevOps has become an inescapable word in technology circles recently with many firms wanting to reap the benefits of bringing developers and operations together . This conference will bring senior IT decision-makers to discuss the latest strategies for DevOps implementation .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'move employees out of time-consuming clerical roles' involves moving employees from one type of role to another, not preventing them from performing an action or causing them to move out of an action as described by a VP[-ing] predicate. Therefore, it does not exhibit the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

DevOps has become an inescapable word in technology circles recently with many firms wanting to reap the benefits of bringing developers and operations together . This conference will bring senior IT decision-makers to discuss the latest strategies for DevOps implementation . This web seminar will reveal and discuss Computing research around AI and machine learning in the cyber security space for UK enterprise , exploring to what extent organisations are already exposing themselves to threat by resting on their laurels ( and legacy solutions ) . Cloud computing has already proven to bring multiple benefits to its users - it is flexible , scalable and eliminates the enormous capital costs of designing and building your own infrastructure .

James Merrick-Potter , head of robotic automation at the Cabinet Office , said that HMRC is " leading the way for Government in using RPA robotic process automation to deliver real savings and service improvements ... Their model is being mirrored by Cabinet Office to accelerate the use of RPA across government . " He added that HMRC is " at least two to three years ahead of the rest of Government " when it comes to robotics .

To meet growing demand , users can now take licences to build their own solutions using ADC governance and processes . " We 're not seen as the enemy but as a team to work with " , we were told . By the end of 2017 , more than 10,300 staff were using automated tasks , and HMRC had moved 350 employees out of clerical roles and into customer-facing positions . The ADC has more than 80 projects in the pipeline for 2018 . They include the automatic sorting and filing of post , which currently employs about 100 people ; automated debt installment arrangements ; and identification of high-risk @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ individuals . " Leading the way in Government robotics , Cabinet Office recognises our approach as best practice , " said HMRC . " Other government departments visit to learn from our experience and we have arranged licences for DWP and others to do proof-of-concept projects .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'taking thousands more people out of paying tax' suggests a movement interpretation, but the verb 'taking' does not clearly indicate a means to achieve a goal as specified in the construction's properties. Additionally, the sentence lacks a clear prevention or movement/extraction interpretation tied to the construction's typical semantic roles.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object between the verb 'get' and 'out of paying out', and it does not clearly convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe an attempt to avoid an obligation, which does not align with the defined properties of the construction.

We 're always told to remember that everything on Instagram is n't as shiny as it looks but when it looks that shiny it 's hard not to believe . When faced with a never-ending feed of pristine people laughing and lolling around in some exotic , impossible-to-afford location , you do n't exactly assume their life is n't perfect , do you ? One blogger , Caroline Stritch , who has 194,000 followers , decided to take the all-is-not-what-it-seems theory and prove it once and for all . Earlier this month , she uploaded a photo of herself looking blogger-perfect ie : muted-tone bedroom , glossy bob , no-makeup-makeup , large cup of freshly brewed coffee , along with the caption : " Tomorrow , I 'm going to be 22 ! I 'm treating myself with a trip to Californ-I-ay : I 'm off to Disneyland to Instagram the hell out of Sleeping Beauty 's Castle . I 'll be putting myself to bed nice and early tonight : I 'm flying tomorrow and coming home Monday ( need a magic carpet , not an aeroplane ) . I 'll be by myself @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ own fairytale . Human possibilities vastly exceed our imagination ! " The next day she uploaded a photo of herself looking polished and carefree in front of the Disneyland castle and captioned the shot : " I 've taken myself off to California . There I am in front of Sleeping Beauty 's Castle -- my crazy , self-indulgent 22nd birthday present to myself . Tomorrow I 'll be back home and it 'll be like it never even happened ! I keep saying to myself : it 's kind of fun to do the impossible . Life is what you make it ! " The thing is though , she had n't taken herself off to California and she was n't turning 22 . She was turning 32 and had stayed at home that weekend . Stritch revealed her reasons for hacking her own Instagram on her blog , stating that she was influenced by Will Storr 's book , Selfie : How We Became So Self-Obsessed and What It 's Doing To Us , which reveals the danger associated with perfection in the digital age @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ illustrate to people how far you can go to manipulate reality . She wrote : " I wanted my fictional narrative to challenge the way I portray myself online and the effects of this portrayal . " I do n't usually FaceApp my face or pretend I 've been places I have n't . But I never read by the window -- those windows , beautiful as they are , make my flat freezing cold . Sometimes that coffee cup I 'm holding is empty . I suck in my stomach . I rearrange the furniture . I photoshop out dirty marks made by bashing furniture off the walls . " What I do know is this : I take those pictures because they 're the kind of pictures I like to look at . " Instagram is really good at escapism , the aspirational , the inspirational . So I try to get those things into pictures I post . " Nobody wants to see me in my pyjamas , with my explosive morning hair , hunched over my laptop on the sofa . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ You want to see my books , my windows , my travel photography , same as I want to see the best bits of your daily lives . " But there 's a line . " In this project , I crossed that line , went way , way over it so I could work backwards and figure out how far I can reasonably go and still make work that 's both responsible and good . " This is actually not the first time someone has used a media platform to blur the lines between reality . In 2014 , Dutch graphic designer , Zilla van den Born , took a five month faux-cation by photoshopping herself around the world enjoying a " gap year " and fooled everyone . Predictably , reactions are always mixed to these kinds of projects but they do raise an important point , do n't they ? |

A Dundee woman has told of the moment a car " screaming up " the wrong side of a busy road as it was chased by police , narrowly avoided crashing into her . Officers were tailing a driver who failed to stop for traffic police and was driving in a " potentially lethal " fashion on the wrong side of the Marketgait dual carriageway . The driver managed to make a getaway from pursuing officers . Samantha Craig , 35 , said she had to " slam " on her brakes to avoid being struck by the silver Ford Focus as she pulled out from a junction . She said : " The car was screaming up from the roundabout at Olympia towards the tunnel , headed for Lochee Road , on the wrong side of the dual carriageway .

" A silver Ford Focus failed to stop for road policing unit officers and proceeded to drive recklessly and dangerously on various roads , including travelling the wrong way around a roundabout and the wrong way along the Marketgait dual carriageway . " The car was lost to sight turning off Lochee Road into Blinshall Street .

The Left has found something to raise its cheer . Needless to say , it is someone predicting that mankind is doomed . The most-read piece on the Guardianwebsite yesterday was an interview with Paul Ehrlich -- not the one who did something useful , the 19th century immunologist , but Paul R Ehrlich , the Stanford Professor of Biology , who has made a career out of warning that mankind is doomed . His latest thesis is certainly eye-catching . The Guardian quotes him as saying " the collapse of civilisation is a near-certainty within decades " . " Population growth , along with over-consumption per capita , " he says , " is driving civilisation over the edge : billions of people are now hungry or micronutrient malnourished , and climate disruption is killing people . " Our only hope is to rapidly reduce global population from 7.6 billion to 2 billion : the maximum level he calculates that the Earth can sustain . But if we do n't get round to effecting that reduction immediately and carry on gobbling up the world @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ even more dramatic reduction . The only thing is that Ehrlich has a bit of backstory which is -- to resort to the terminology of a left-wing academic -- just a little problematic . He said pretty much the same 50 years ago -- indeed the half-century anniversary of his 1968 book the Population Bomb was the whole reason for the Guardian interview . The book warned that the world was heading for a population crunch and proposed dramatic measures . The US was to have a Department of Population of the Environment charged with ' taking whatever steps are necessary to establish a reasonable population size in the US ' , including the prospect of mass sterilization . Ehrlich is still proud of the Population Bomb , apparently . According to the Guardian : " The book 's strength , Ehrlich says , is that it was short , direct and basically correct . " Except , that is , that it came to the conclusion : " The battle to feed all of humanity is over . In the 1970s the world will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to starve to death in spite of any crash programs embarked upon now . " True enough , I suppose , there were a number of famines in the 1970s and have been a few since , too . In most cases , however , they have had political rather than environmental causes . As for the suggestion that the battle to feed all humanity is over , it is hard to see how Ehrlich could have been more wrong . Global hunger has fallen -- and that is in spite of a huge rise in population . It is hard to find comparable statistics going back to 1968 , but in 1990-92 , according to the UN Food and Agriculture Organisation , there were one billion undernourished people in the world -- 18.6 per cent of the world 's population . By 2014-16 that had fallen to 794 million -- or 10.9 per cent of the population . And now , as ever , the chief problem is political -- where people go hungry it is generally because of warfare or bad governments . The world does not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ This rather raises the question : just what would have had to have happened in order for Ehrlich to announce that he had been wrong ? There is really nothing . Ehrlich is one of a long line of failed Malthusians who will never accept they are wrong , just that their prediction has been put off for a few more years . If global population were to continue to grow indefinitely we would eventually be standing shoulder to shoulder , and then we really might have trouble feeding ourselves -- in that sense , I suppose , Malthusians can never be wrong . But if you are going to make predictions of global doom then timing , I think , is really rather important . There was a time when I swallowed the sort of guff that Ehrlich puts out . Back in the 1980s , when I was a geography student , I would have taken in everything he was saying . I even started to write a dystopian novel , a genuine attempt to see into a future when we had expended the Earth 's resources @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I wrote , the more the thesis began to collapse in the face of reality . Global population was growing , but food production even more so . The world 's poor were becoming healthier , better educated . In fact , just about every measure of human wellbeing was improving . Even worse , from the point of view of the book , it was hard to escape the conclusion that the improvements in living standards all over the world came down to some of the things which young radicals are taught to hate : globalisation , capitalism , industrialisation . By the time the book -- the Great Before -- was finally published nearly two decades later it had evolved into exactly the opposite of what I had originally intended : a satire mocking the pessimists like Ehrlich and their fascistic solutions for controlling global population . It is a shame that Ehrlich ca n't see his original thesis as the failure it is and learn from it . |

In Rank Your Records , we talk to artists who have amassed substantial discographies over the years and ask them to rate their releases in order of personal preference . Quelle Chris is walking along a street in Bushwick , Brooklyn , attempting to shield himself from gusts of wind while looking over a list of his back catalogue albums on a piece of paper . " The idea is very interesting because it 's really tough , " the MC and producer says as he figures out a tactic to order his music in order of personal favourites . A swoosh of wind is audible down the phone line , causing him to exclaim , " Oh , shit , I 've got winter coat problems . " Since the release of last year 's creative tour de force Being You Is Great ! I Wish I Could Be You More Often , Quelle Chris 's profile has bloomed . Now he 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a collaborative album recorded with his fianc ? , Jean Grae . " It 's a beautiful album produced by me and Jean , performed by me and Jean , and featuring a lot of great people and a lot of great friends , " he says . Those friends include the comedians Nick Offerman , Michael Che , John Hodgman , and Hannibal Buress , who appear across the project , with Buress and Eric Andre crashing a video for the single " Gold Purple Orange . " Quelle also created animated visuals for the album 's second release , " Zero , " which turns Jean Grae into an assassin character adventuring through a retro video game ( with a little help from the couple 's cat , Littles ) . If everything goes according to plan , Quelle plans to use the UnReal game creation engine to turn the concept into a couple of playable levels before the year is out . After securing on a slightly less blustery spot to speak from , Noisey prompted Quelle Chris to dive deep into his back catalog of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is a collection of some of your older music , right ? Quelle Chris : Yeah , it 's earlier projects and a combination of a lot of other projects . At the time I had the red Pontiac and I was living in Detroit . I would just kinda make the songs in the basement , throw them on the tape , ride around and listen to them , let the family hear them . I remember DJ House Shoes brought me out to a show and told me to sell them as CDs at Fat Beats . I still was n't too hip and privy to releasing things on the internet at the time . Do you remember how many CD copies you sold ? Not enough , is that a good number ? But me and Denmark Vessey did the dual cover vinyl version and did like 500 copies and we sold all of those . At the time , I was done drawing like a billion versions of the same hand-drawn cover picture ! I do n't have any copies of this one left for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it 's being sold on the internet for ridiculous prices . Would you ever update or remake any of the songs from an older album like this ? No , never , that 's that moment , you know what I mean ? Where it 's at is where it 's perfect . It 's the people around me , the environment -- you do n't have to touch it . Is the title anything to do with New Order 's " Blue Monday " song ? No , it 's Kurt Vonnegut , I got it from the book Breakfast Of Champions , Or Goodbye Blue Monday . It might surprise some fans to see you 've picked Ghost At The Finish Line in this spot.The weird thing is , I would definitely not put Ghost At The Finish Line close to the bottom of any list but , you know , it 's the nature of this wicked game you have me playing . Can you break down the concept behind the album ? The idea is that you start the race , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ run along with you , and some of them run off on different paths , and some stay the race for a fair amount of time . So the ghosts at the finish line are n't just the people who cross the finish line with you but the memories and the spirits of the people who help make you who you are . Where did you record the album ? A little bit in Oakland , a little bit in LA . I believe that 's mostly it , except maybe one of the joints . I recorded one of the songs in El-P 's crib , he was kind enough to let me use it . What was El-P 's studio setup like ? You know , it was like equipment-like stuff . I 'm not a techie like that , I 'm not a gearhead or nothing . It was probably like MPCs and button-pushing things . Button-pushing things ? Yeah , button-pushing things ! Regular music shit . It was a good session . It was the song with Black Milk on it , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was the song we recorded there . Did you leave El-P 's crib in a tidy state or make a mess ? I do n't know if I made a physical mess but I 'm pretty sure around that time I was pretty hammered . I can not vouch for everything I may have said or did . You also persuaded the producer Alchemist to rhyme on a song , " PRX . " How did you go about doing that ? I did a set for House Shoes 's birthday or something like that and I can tell that Shoes blacked out on me during a set so I was like , " Well , I 'm gon na get drunk too . " I had a pretty raucous set -- that would be the kind way of saying it ! Alchemist was there and after the set I do vaguely recall saying , " I 'm gon na get you to rap on a song , you 're not gon na produce nothing , you 're really a rapper , you 're lying to me , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , you know , out of all the things I did remember from that night I did remember that . So every time I reached out to him I reminded him and he knocked it out the park . He got his Bizzy Bone on on that one , I remember that ! This is the album that Chris Keys produced , right ? Yes it is . That was part two in the Too Dirt For TV trilogy , as it stands . That 's with Chris Keys on the production . He 's an extremely talented brother , an extremely talented pianist , and just a real solid dude . Oh , and an avid gamer . What do you remember about recording the album ? The crazy thing about Innocent Country is it was all made within the same time as Being You Is Great ... The first song I did on Being You Is Great ... was " Popeye " and in the time that I made that I was working on Innocent Country . It was supposed to be -- well , if @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Innocent Country was supposed to come out and be more of like , here 's what 's wrong with y'all , and Being You Is Great ... is supposed to be : here 's what 's wrong with me . That 's why Innocent Country ends with " The Mirror . " Yeah , they were supposed to come out back to back . You mentioned playing a lot of video games with Chris Keys . How do you balance that with being productive ? The trick is to just do n't be productive ! That 's the trick . What 's your recording process like with Chris Keys ? Do you talk about the concepts of the songs before making them ? I think at that time I would be at Chris 's spot in Oakland and we 'd just smoke , chill , watch random shit , get food , listen to some music , make some beats , write songs , repeat . There was no real structure like that -- it was about letting the songs come as they can . These songs on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one particular season -- it was over a course of years . One of the earliest songs on Innocent Country had to be from 2012 , possibly 2011 , and that 's when we met and recorded " We Want It Alive . " I work at a slow speed . I do n't really make albums that fast , I just let them form . How would you describe the vibe of this album ? It 's just some solid-ass songs . I felt like I wanted to do it like Michael Jackson where it 's not about some sort of growing narrative -- it 's just good hip-hop song after good hip-hop song . You have Roc Marciano on a few tracks . How did you hook up with him ? Through House Shoes , I believe . I 'm 100 percent positive it was through Shoes . I was out in Oakland and he was up in Oakland at the same time ... No ! You know ? Hold on , wait , my bad , actually , I feel it was Chris Keys , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't recall ! It was someway through Shoes and Chris Keys but it was definitely up in Oakland . As an MC , what do you appreciate most about Roc Marci 's style ? Especially his most recent album , it 's just some real good way with word patterns . Even when he wants to be a little more reserved with it , he still finesses it in a way that 's like lacing butter over some bread , you know what I mean ? I always love that . He just has a real respect for the craft ; you can always hear that . It does n't even matter if you 're a big fan of someone 's style , you can tell that they have a real respect for the craft . The cover of this album is an illustration of someone at various ages . Is that you ? Yes it is . Which life stage character has the best haircut ? Hmmm ... You know , there 's one that 's not in there when I had my hair permed , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you pick your latest album for the second spot ? That 's possibly because of my own , you know , love for it but also just kinda the love that it received . It was a different experience . To me , I felt like I was n't really saying shit or doing shit on this album that I had not already been doing . I 'd say the only difference was maybe I did n't go too hard on the raps and it was more about the whole aesthetic of the songs on Being You Is Great ... I do n't really think I did too much different but for some reason it really resonated with people and that means a lot as opposed to feeling like you 're talking to nobody . Why do you think more people seemed to get into this album ? I do n't know . Maybe timing , maybe it 's a slow build like more and more people are listening and talking about you . You know how that goes . Maybe it did n't necessarily resonate with more people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was the message and how it was delivered and , I think , when somebody has somebody saying , " You 're good , you got it , look , it ai n't all perfect , nobody 's perfect , if you 're good you got it , " it 's better than feeling bad , you know what I 'm saying ? Do you remember if there was there one moment when you came up with the album title and overall concept ? Yes I do . But I 'm not gon na tell that story . But I was n't in a good place with myself , that 's for sure . You have Jean Grae guesting on the song " The Prestige . " How was working with her ? I thought I was coming off a little hard to be honest but I already knew what was gon na happen : I was gon na give her the joint and then she was gon na go ape shit . It was great . In all of the time we 've been together it 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . It 's less often than other things . It was great watching her record -- she 's so sharp with everything and everything has to be just right . But I tend to be , " Eh , shit do n't sound right , that 's cool . " To watch someone you respect work is always an awesome experience . Did you talk to Homeboy Sandman much about how you wanted to present " Pendulum Swing , " the song that closes the album and has your verses going back and forth ? Yeah , I think I hit him with the initial idea -- but not too specific in the way we 're gon na literally be like a pendulum -- and he real quick got back to me with his verse . I actually had laid the song out a little different : I think at first I had me , and then him , and then he did another take of the same verse , and then I did another take of my verse again , so it was without a chorus . But @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that 's the way that I did it . Why is this your number one album pick ? It 's the nature of how the album 's laid out , how it goes from having fun and really laughing about things to getting deeper into the conversation about the way we deal with those things . It has a good mix of everything . The funny half has a different feel to the second half of it . A lot of times the albums I like the most are just about my mood , so that one had something for every mood a little bit more for me . Did you plan to structure the album that way before you started writing it ? It kinda happened that way . The album is pretty much 99 percent me and Cavalier and the album kinda formed out of having conversations with him to the point where at some point making the album , I 'd sit down with a beat I had made the day before and he would sit down with what we had , and it would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just having conversations up in his crib at the time and letting those moments just hanging out form into songs . It kinda just formed that way . After smoking and drinking so much , you 're bound to have a real conversation come out of it . When was the last time you listened to the album ? I would say definitely within the last couple of months I 've listened to songs . " Addiction Cycles , " I listen to that a lot and " We Eat It " is another favorite of mine . I listen to it often . When you listen to the album , does it take you back to a moment in time ? Not so much as some of the other albums because it was a shared moment and I almost listen to it in a way like it 's a Cav album featuring this dude Quelle . It 's an album I kinda listen to more as a fan than the person who made it . What 's this dude Quelle like on the album ? Ah @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's got a real ill way of approaching real everyday shit . Yeah , man , the dude can spit , I think that 's really the top thing , the dude can rap his ass off . He sounds like a cool dude . |

If she makes it all the way , the actress will be the first woman to hold what is one of America 's most powerful offices outside the White House . Is her celebrity a disqualifying trait ? It was n't for Reagan , Schwarzenegger or Trump ... make of that what you will . Celebrities are the one way to make sure there will be a decent press turn out for your fundraising event and so every charity needs a celebrity patron .

Breaking into the music industry is hard . But here , The Mail on Sunday shows how despite the risk of failure , investing in musicians can be deeply rewarding -- often in the most unexpected of ways . Little Mix , big rewards : The band with their Brit award last year PUT MUSIC AHEAD OF MONEY The music industry is worth ? 10billion a year in sales -- which sounds a lot until you realise it is a third of the revenue it raked in two decades ago . A major reason for this is the internet . Despite websites opening up the opportunity for us to enjoy more music through streaming it has meant less money being spent on more profitable album sales . Making a living out of becoming a rock star has therefore become increasingly difficult . For every success story , such as pop star Ed Sheeran worth ? 37million and girl band Little Mix , countless others fail . Even with that incredible talent , Sheeran spent a couple of years homeless -- often catching his sleep on the London Underground -- before eventually being discovered @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ industry is now more about making profits from existing bands rather than discovering new groups . With most releases failing to cover their costs , investors must be realistic . Rob Town , musician and founder of agency Stampede Press , says : ' The music industry is full of sharks keen to exploit artists who are often blinded by a dream of success . ' The harsh reality is this is a tough old business and you rarely get to make a living out of it even if you are particularly talented . ' He adds : ' As soon as a band starts talking about money you know it is the beginning of the end -- you should always put your music before anything . ' Potential investors should therefore not be primarily motivated by money but instead on how they can support an artist wanting to make music . The A-team : But Ed Sheeran -- now worth ? 37million -- struggled at first TUNE IN TO NEW ARTISTS Thanks to the internet , artists can share their music with many @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and streaming services . The majority of music is now listened to through streaming where you often pay a monthly subscription to get access to millions of tunes -- but the amount each service pays a band can vary . Spotify is the most popular -- but also one of the meanest -- often handing out just 0.003p per tune played , according to research from the American business magazine Forbes . Deezer pays 0.004p a stream while Apple Music 0.005p . The most generous streaming services are Napster and Tidal , which pay out 0.01p and 0.008p respectively . Subscription to Spotify and Deezer is free if willing to have occasional adverts played between the tracks -- or ? 9.99 a month without ads . Apple Music and Tidal also charge from ? 9.99 a month . Music technology student Joe Brooks hopes to make a living out of music and believes social media can help achieve his dream . The 20-year-old is drummer in band Stray Foxes and is a DJ called Brxy . Joe , of Kingston upon Thames in South West @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ number of new listeners rather than records sold these days -- and if a band attracts enough fans it will then be in more demand for gigs where it can earn some money . ' Drum up fans : Joe Brooks hopes to make a living from music He believes if you wish to support musicians further , consider visiting the music download website Bandcamp -- where you can pay what you feel is appropriate to download music to give financial help to emerging acts . New bands such as Stray Foxes can also be enjoyed for free on websites such as SoundCloud . Joe adds : ' It is important to make the most of social media , such as Twitter , YouTube and Facebook , to ensure music and gig details are shared -- and hopefully people who enjoy what they have heard pass the message to other fans . ' Buying music -- either downloaded or through hard copy CDs and vinyl -- makes bands far more money than streaming where it is just played online . Artists can expect to pocket perhaps @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ via a provider such as iTunes , depending on how the original deal was negotiated . A CD or vinyl album sale might see between 5 to 13 per cent of the price paid for the tunes ending up in a musician 's pocket . INVEST AS A MUSIC MOGUL Despite the high-risk nature of the industry there is nothing to stop you getting involved -- just as long as you are aware you could lose all your money . Such a gamble turned Richard Branson into a billionaire . In 1973 he invested in Mike Oldfield and Tubular Bells when no other record company would touch him . He also released best-selling album Never Mind The B******* , Here 's The Sex Pistols in 1977 after the punk band was fired by other record labels . Perhaps the best way to get involved in the market is through a seed enterprise investment scheme , such as industry-focused Amplify Music . Gamble : Richard Branson invested in Mike Oldfield and The Sex Pistols For a minimum of ? 10,000 music fans pool funds with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Then five bands each get ? 300,000 to record and release albums . The cash is tied up for three-and-a-half years and you do not get a say which bands get help -- that is left to experts , such as the music manager Brian Message , who has been involved in working with the band Radiohead . The risks may be high but the tax breaks for seed enterprise investment schemes are generous . They include being able to offset half the total you have invested against your income tax bill . In addition , such schemes can avoid capital gains tax as well as inheritance tax . Alex Davies is chief executive of Bristol-based financial adviser Wealth Club . Amplify Music is among the tax-efficient investments he offers . He says : ' There is no guarantee you will make any money -- this is not about finding a new mega star like Adele but helping promising artists . ' Every time you hear their tune on the radio you can be proud and also know you own a bit of the music . ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sales but also concerts , royalties and merchandise . ' The most recent Amplify Music seed enterprise investment scheme returned 60p in every ? 1 invested after three-and-a-half years when investors received some of their money back last September . Despite this meaning a ? 10,000 investment only got them back ? 6,000 -- if they reclaimed the ? 5,000 income tax relief they would not be out of pocket . To be considered a ' seed ' the business has to have been around for fewer than two years -- but this refers to the limited company that invests the money and not necessarily the band , which could have been around longer . Recent band successes for Amplify Music include the London Community Gospel Choir and The Boxer Rebellion . GO OUT TO GIGS Musicians often still tour pubs and clubs to learn their craft and start to build a fan base -- despite the internet revolution . Joe Brooks , of the Stray Foxes , says : ' A band might have to pay ? 100 just to be given the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ -- they are only able to make any money if they sell tickets off their own back which more than covers this initial outlay . Once established , pubs and clubs pay ? 150 or so if you bring in fans .

He went to King Tut 's Wah Wah Hut club two hours early by mistake when the band played four tracks -- and there were only a dozen people in the crowd . Compared to spending sometimes more than ? 100 to see an established band with a seat miles from the action , consider enjoying the intimacy of watching relatively unknown bands close up . For ticket prices from ? 10 these can prove better value . Details of where you might find such bands can be found at websites such as TicketWeb , See Tickets and the London-based Skiddle .

You might also try out ' battle of the bands ' style events where groups fight it out with other musicians to get through to another round -- and depend on audiences loving them . Such events include SPH Band Contest , with tickets from ? 7 . When buying tickets for events try to purchase direct whenever possible to avoid being ripped off . Second-hand ticket sellers StubHub UK , Viagogo , Seatwave and GetMeIn ! were ordered to clean up their act by the Advertising Standards Authority earlier this month . They were criticised by the watchdog for not being totally clear about extra charges that can be added when booking for gigs . Viagogo was also slammed for using the slogan ' official site ' when selling previously purchased tickets .

PledgeMusic is not just for new musicians but also established artists no longer signed up to a label and self-releasing . Recent examples using the service include Gary Numan , Marillion and The Libertines . The amount of money artists raise varies enormously . Recording and releasing an album costs anything from just ? 500 to ? 50,000 or more . Crowdfunding is unregulated .

Reasoning

The sentence 'Former residents of the tower could be priced out of buying their new flats' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Here, 'Former residents of the tower' is the NP subject, 'could be priced' is the V1 (in passive voice), 'their new flats' is the NP object, and 'buying' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. The interpretation is a prevention interpretation, meaning that the former residents are prevented from buying their new flats due to being priced out. This aligns with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

West Ham defender Arthur Masuaku wo n't be making his debut for the DR Congo national side this international break , despite having chosen to represent the African nation instead of fighting his way into the France set-up .

Things have n't worked out as swimmingly as perhaps first thought , though , with the defender now set for an early return to West Ham . DR Congo 's FA ( Fecofa ) have confirmed that Makuasu and three other players asked to return to their respective clubs after seeing how badly organised things were in the camp .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('we 've been cheated now out of getting what we 've been trying to get for so long'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the action of cheating has prevented the speaker from achieving justice for Elsie. The verb 'cheated' is classified under means of deception or trickery, which is appropriate for the construction. The NP object 'we' functions as a causee, and the sentence can be paraphrased to reflect the prevention interpretation, confirming it as an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

READ MORE : Fears for lives of Sheffield sex workers on drugsAnnouncing his death , West Yorkshire Police confirmed that the 80-year-old , who was known as the ' Beast of Wombwell ' was expected to have been charged with the murder of another 14-year-old , Elsie Frost , whose body was found in Wakefield in 1965 . He had also just been convicted of the rape of an 18-year-old woman in the Stocksbridge area of Sheffield in 1972 after luring her into his van and attacking her just a few weeks before he killed Shirley . Colin Frost , the brother of suspected victim Elsie , said : " I just feel like we 've been cheated now out of getting what we 've been trying to get for so long - justice for Elsie . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , well certainly not in the way that we wanted it - to have Pickering in court . " Mr Frost , who pushed for the re-investigation of the case three years ago along with his sister , Anne Cleave , said : " It 's just an incredible feeling of frustration now . " They uncovered a monster . The man was such a nasty , nasty piece of work . " Asked if he believed Pickering could have killed others , he said : " I think there 's every likelihood . " If you 're asking my opinion , there are other offences . I could n't say whether it 's another rape , another kidnap , another murder . The suspicion at the back of my mind is that it 's all of them . " Elsie was stabbed in the back and head as she walked through a railway tunnel in Wakefield , West Yorkshire , in October 1965 . As part of the investigation into her death , detectives looked back through Pickering 's conversations with psychiatrists and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sheffield , containing possessions including handcuffs and exercise books filled with his rantings . One note written in 1970 said : " Sex is predominant in my mind - eclipsing all else . Maybe I will be a sex maniac proper . Rape , torture , kill . " Pickering , 80 , died at a secure hospital in Berkshire where he was held after he admitted the manslaughter of Shirley Boldy by diminished responsibility in 1972 . Shirley was bundled into Pickering 's van as she was returning to Wombwell High School . He then drove her to a secluded location where he tied her up and raped her . He tried to strangle her before stabbing her to death . Leeds Crown Court heard last week how Pickering had convictions for sex offences dating back to the very early 1960s and was in prison from 1966 to early 1972 for a violent sex attack on a teenager . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks a V1 verb acting on an NP object with an out of VP2[-ing] predicate that would induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'straight out of doing a degree' is a prepositional phrase indicating a temporal sequence, not a construction involving causation or prevention.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'young people' is the NP subject, 'choose to opt' is the V1, 'out of increasing their pension savings' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also induces a prevention interpretation, meaning young people are prevented from increasing their pension savings by choosing to opt out. The verb 'choose' fits into the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot by means of nonspecific means. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'choose' does not involve causing or preventing an action, and there is no NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'out of' in a different context, referring to the source or means of making money, not involving a causee or a VP[-ing] predicate.

As I 'm thinking of finally hanging up my clip-board ( plastic covered writing equipment ) and furling my tape measure ( long fabric marked in feet and inches -- sorry centimetre thingies ) for the last time , I thought : let 's just have one final pop at these Purplebricks ads . I had a grudging respect for the visual storyline in the guy screaming in the cupboard . The lady with cake on her face was clever too , but naturally , like every self-respecting proper estate agent , I took exception to the intimation that there was no commission to pay ! Plenty of people made noises and the Advertising Standards Authority offered some whimpering bleats that ' perhaps Purplebricks would n't mind being ever so nice and altering a few phrases , and so sorry to have bothered you nice Mr Brick ' . It was only when I saw the wedding scene advert that my dander was raised once again , and this time no one seemed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , in his wedding breakfast speech , accuses poor Gareth of being a liar : " He said Purplebricks were just online . Well they 're not , Gareth . They are proper estate agents . " We all know they 're not , so I made a formal complaint to the Advertising Standards Authority saying that the advert was misleading as Purplebricks are patently not ' proper estate agents ' as they are online only and the public would rightly expect ' proper estate agents ' to have offices . The ASA dismissed my complaint immediately saying : " We noted that Purplebricks offer similar services to a traditional estate agent , including visiting properties and face to face valuations , and provided local property experts who were sufficiently trained and experienced . For these reasons , we ca n't say the ad breaks the rules on the basis you suggest . " I had also made the point that , without High Street offices , they could n't justify saying " we 're not just online " , as that 's patently all they are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ came back with this ever more glowing commendation of PB 's credentials as ' proper estate agents ' thus : " With regards to your complaint about the claim they are proper estate agents " I believe it would be covered by the same ruling here . " As stated previously the ruling commented that Purplebricks offered ' similar services to a traditional estate agent ' and that the combination of property experience , qualifications , professional membership and an internal training programme was sufficient to substantiate the claim ' expert ' . For these reasons we are unable to conclude the ad has broken our Code at this time . " It seems to me the ASA are as gullible as PB 's investors and believe everything PB tells them . Was I barking up the wrong tree -- am I an ill-informed old f .. rt of a past-it agent ? If Purplebricks think using a domineering , malignant narcissist as their best advertising strategy let them carry on . Look @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ public think of the the sort of chap who ignores his wife at a family gathering to make an aggressive , unprovoked attack on his new son in law . You have to be concerned for Mrs Terry , but at least the daughter 's safe now . The real sadness is not her having to live with Terry but it 's unlikely she 'll see much of the grandchildren . An experienced local agent , perhaps having spent many years working out of an office for an independent , decides to set themselves up as a local personal realtor , taking on only the clients they can cope with , but offering a high end personal service for a decent fee ; are they a proper agent ? That 's a reasonable question to which the answer is -- they are an agent . Whether they are ' proper ' depends on your definition of what a ' proper agent ' is . To my mind a proper agent is one who is rewarded on result . That is the fundamental basis of the client/agent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that removes any incentive whatsoever to negotiate a sale and see it through to completion . So long as Local Property Experts are not much more than sales reps chasing listings I will not consider them to be proper agents , no matter what experience they may have from past employments . A decent minded professionally trained agent who wants to do the best for their client , , without conflict of interest , working on an agreed fee schedule that incentives them to get the best price for the client . PS There is nothing wrong about charging a registration fee of say ? 300 for set up costs , plus a commission at the end based on the sale price . It is n't the offices that determine a proper estate agent but a detailed understanding of the market they are selling in or letting to . Internet listing firms that rely on random number generation , AVM systems to guess at value and who react to portal enquiries are not proper estate agents . Those agents working from home or non ITZA premises @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have properly managed and understood applicant registers are very much proper estate , land or letting agents . There 's a world of difference between FSBO passive intermediary listers and proper agents and it 's down to the professional agent to explain the difference and make their case . Just to remind everyone what a proper estate agent is , this is from the Estate Agents Act definition : - Section 1 of the Act contains the legal definition of estate agency work . The legal definition is very wide and , subject to certain limited exceptions , you will be engaging in estate agency work if , in the course of business and acting on instructions from a third party ( your client ) who wishes to either buy or sell property ( an interest in land ) , you do either ( or both ) of the following : things for the purpose of , or with a view to , effecting the introduction to your client , of someone who either wishes to buy or sell property , or things after such an introduction has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the property . The law only requires you to do things for the purpose of , or with a view to introducing your client to a buyer or seller in order for you to be acting as an estate agent . It is not necessary for you to actually introduce your client to a buyer or seller in order to fall within the legal definition of estate agency work . If you do any of the following things , you will be , or are likely to be , engaging in estate agency work : sending out property particulars and arranging viewings dealing with queries from potential sellers or buyers on behalf of your clients . But in addition to that there are pecedent defined , contract law , duties placed on an agent that says quite clearly an agent has to do more than that scant definition in order to fulfil their obligations to their principal . Duty of care and skill is the biggie that puts any investment in looky likey agency at very seriious risk of litigation . Looking up a number on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ DoC&S . What everyone has to remember is that PB 's business model is not Estate agency in the long term . There end game is to make money out of advertising on their web site . The Estate Agency element of the business is just to drive traffic to the web site . Is that proper estate agency ? No , but it 's business . Wish I 'd thought of doing it first A proper estate agent will ensure that prior to marketing a property and attaching their reputation to the instruction some due diligence . Maybe suggesting some further advice on potential structural problems ( more than likely to have a building surveyor in house ) . Checking out boundaries , party walls planning and any legal issues which might affect value or saleability This is a shining example of an instruction where it smacks of the Bricks expert taking the money popping a board up not fully understanding what the vendor is seeking to do and leaving an unholy mess for any potential buyers to stutter through ihttps : **38;58;TOOLONG ... No @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the basic of due diligence prior to inspection . You have to book an appointment with the owner first before they allow you access online and a long schlep over Its a property likely to have a wide appeal with its panoramic views over Cardigan Bay Furthermore if you open up the brochure online the poor saps thinking of buying a second holiday home , lifestsyle change opening up a restaurant will find out when they arrive and meet the owner not only are they required to be a developer and carry out the reconfiguration works they have to give one of the 2 flats on completion back to the owner gratis ! No mention of this at all in the details.The works are not going to leave you must change from ? 500k You could n't make it up ! Likely to be more disgruntled not finding Dylan propping up the bar either ! A proper estate agent will act as a buffer between buyer and seller , negotiating the final sale price to the best of their ability and dealing with any issues and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ They do n't just put a few photos up online , collect the review of what they have done , do a few viewings if paid extra , and then abandon their client after that .... to move onto their next payment . That is Call Centre Listing . A proper estate agent acts on behalf of their vendor from start to end , to try and make the whole process as least stressful for their client as possible , only asking for a review that can be seen by other people after the final completion of the sale ! ! ! A proper estate agent will always earn the majority oftheir fees only from successfully completed sales . I made a complaint about a traditional agent in February who posts on here regularly and who complains about others breaking rules ( hypocrite ) and on the front page of his website he was advertising properties as " just completed " when they were n't . One of them completed in May 2017 and others were more recent but not what a typical person would consider @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ page of the website and just 4 of them were for sale , there were 12 " just completed " properties . Where is Chris Wood , PeeBee & Robert May when it comes to checking their friends ' websites ? Too busy chasing PurpleBricks probably . No hypocrisy there is there ? The ASA agreed that rules probably had been broken in this case but all they did was send a letter and when they do that they do n't even check to see if any changes have been made . Other Agents have had informal action taken for similar false claims which give a false impression of how good an agent they are . Another complaint that they could not substantiate their claim " We Guarantee To Give Your Home The Best Marketing " did n't get anywhere as according to the ASA this is just puffery and the average consumer will realise it . Look around . You find misleading comments that ca n't be substantiated on a lot of traditional agents ' sites . They 're not all hypocrites though . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ other day but you must have missed it . Here it is " I do nt trust estate agents any more or less than anybody else . I just find it hard to believe that anybody with more than half a brain cell would base investment decisions on this forum and i cant believe you or Dom think that anyone would which makes me wonder why you both defend Purplebricks but no other companies ( that I am aware of ) ?

The only hopeful morsel of material which I found to feed to the them by way of formal complaint was that several properties shown on said website were marked as " Just Completed " ; and that further extensive investigation revealed their respective sale completion dates -- which did n't fall under what I believe can be claimed as " recent " .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes the creation of the universe 'out of nothing' without involving a causee or a VP[-ing] predicate that would fit the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'out of nothing' is a prepositional phrase modifying 'created', not part of the construction in question.

This computer-simulated image shows a supermassive black hole at the core of a galaxy . The black region in the centre represents the black hole 's event horizon , where no light can escape the gravitational pull . Picture : NASA , ESA , and D. Coe , J. Anderson , and R. van der Marel ( STScI ) ' He was one of the greatest figures of theoretical physics in the 20th century . He made at least five breakthroughs that would be enough to make someone famous in the scientific community . " Professor Paul Shellard is well placed to offer this verdict on the achievements of Stephen Hawking . His PhD on quantum effects in the early universe was supervised by Prof Hawking . And now he is director of the Centre for Theoretical Cosmology at the University of Cambridge , established by Prof Hawking to " develop theories of the universe that are both mathematically consistent and observationally testable " . Prof Stephen Hawking at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was no doubting his ambition in doing so . Much of what Prof Hawking sought to achieve revolved inexorably around one of the biggest puzzles facing physicists today : reconciling two apparently incompatible theories . " The two big ideas in the 20th century for physical theory are quantum mechanics -- the idea of uncertainty on very small scales -- and general relativity , which describes the very large scales in the universe : galaxies and stars and black holes , " explains Prof Shellard . " They are incompatible in the sense of there being no theory that joins them together . " Stephen thought about their connection in the context of the black hole . He came up with this idea of an event horizon around a black hole , which cloaks the singularity at the centre from view . " Professor Stephen Hawking died on March 14 , 2018 . Picture : : David Parry A singularity is a point of infinite density , with a gravitational pull so immense that it was thought that nothing -- not even light -- could @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hole might affect the production of matching pairs of particles and anti-particles -- a process that quantum theory states is happening all the time in space . " Stephen thought about quantum mechanical effects near this horizon . He realised a black hole is not entirely black . It could emit particles through quantum effects -- little fluctuations that created particles that escaped from the black hole . This is Hawking radiation . And so the black hole would radiate its energy away slowly and thereby shrink , as energy has to be conserved . " If it was a tiny black hole , it would be a lot hotter and would radiate more quickly . " This is the first successful marriage of quantum theory with general relativity . It brings together the largest scales and the smallest scales . It 's a touchstone for people exploring the ' theory of everything ' -- bringing the two big ideas together in a theory of quantum gravity . " Prof Hawking 's idea dates from 1974 but is still driving research today , not least because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " If we found a tiny black hole then that would radiate quite strongly and we would be able to see it , " explains Prof Shellard . " But Stephen always remarked that if we found a tiny black hole he would have received a Nobel Prize ... " Other researchers have been trying to recreate analogues of black holes in the laboratory with fluid systems or condensed matter systems and look for the analogue of Hawking radiation from a horizon in those systems . It 's an active area of research . " When two black holes collide , they release massive amounts of energy in the form of gravitational waves that last a fraction of a second and can be heard throughout the universe - if you have the right instruments . On 12/8/2017 we learned that the LIGO project heard the telltale chirp of black holes colliding , fulfilling Einstein 's General Theory of Relativity . NASA 's LISA mission will look for direct evidence of gravitational waves . Image : NASA Goddard Since 2010 there have been claims that such analogues of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that remains a matter for debate . Prof Hawking , however , expanded on his idea . " This idea of radiation from a horizon he then applied to the universe , " says Prof Shellard . " A natural progression is that the universe itself has a horizon . " The early universe , where it expands very rapidly -- it 's a period we call inflation these days -- can radiate as well . It 's very similar to black hole radiation . Professor Stephen Hawking beside a lamp titled ' black hole light ' by inventor Mark Champkins , presented to him during his visit to the Science Museum in London . Picture : Anthony Devlin " It creates tiny little ripples in the early universe and these ripples are believed to be the primordial seeds around which all the structure in the universe forms . " These tiny fluctuations grow gravitationally to become stars and planets and everything we see . " This is called inflationary fluctuation . Stephen was the first person in the West to propose ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be the case . It 's been tested by several satellite experiments . " Professor Stephen Hawking in March 2015 . Picture : Andre Pattenden Such experiments probe the Cosmic Microwave Background ( CMB ) , the relic radiation left over from the Big Bang . " It provides a snapshot of the early universe , " explains Prof Shellard . " About 10 per cent of the signal on an old TV when it 's all fuzzy and you have n't tuned it to a station is the CMB . " With these satellite experiments you can get an exquisite map of these fluctuations -- they are at about one part in 100,000 . " Another of Stephen 's major breakthroughs was that he recognised that the area of the event horizon always had to increase . It 's like the second law of thermodynamics . " When two black holes collided the area of the final horizon of the two black holes together had to be larger . He was able to use this insight to predict the maximum amount of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ He explored this in the 1960s and 1970s but it took until February 2016 for the first observation of gravitational waves , which are a disturbance in the fabric of space-time , generated by accelerated masses . " Stephen was also important in establishing that black holes are very simple solutions mathematically . He proved that black holes are symmetric about their axis of rotation . " Purple nebula and cosmic dust in a star field The beginning -- and ending -- of time " Stephen started his career by looking at the question of whether the universe has a beginning in time , " says Prof Shellard . " When the evidence from the Cosmic Microwave Background came out , that was strong evidence that as you go backwards in time , the universe gets much smaller and hotter because this is radiation left over from a hot , early phase of the Big Bang . He looked at the implications for the universe getting smaller like this in Einstein 's Theory of General Relativity . Professor Stephen Hawking with Eddie Redmayne who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he was able to show that if you go backwards in time , there must have been a Big Bang singularity . And that means there must have been a beginning to time . " A Big Bang singularity means all the laws of physics break down because everything gets infinitely dense . That 's mathematical ' proof ' of what we were observing , which is that the universe was smaller and hotter in the past . That 's another of his breakthroughs . " Much of Prof Hawking 's work on singularity theorems was in collaboration with Oxford mathematician Roger Penrose . But in the 1980s , and in The Brief History of Time , which sold 10 million copies , he revised his early ideas about the beginning of time . Professor Stephen Hawking at a dinner in his honour at Gonville & Caius College to celebrate his 75th Birthday . Picture : Keith Heppell " He was always troubled that he proved this breakdown of everything at the beginning of the universe and the fact that time had to begin , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' Can I apply my quantum mechanical ideas to the origins of the universe itself ? ' " This is what 's called his famous ' No boundary proposal ' . In A Brief History of Time , he tried to explain ' imaginary time ' . This is the idea that you did n't go into a singularity , but you rounded it off . You had a beginning of the universe that was quantum mechanical in origin using imaginary time . " But asked what were the things he wished he could have done , he said : ' I wish I could have explained imaginary time better ' . " It 's a mathematical way of thinking about time -- a calculational ' trick ' if you like . But he thought about it much more literally , that somehow time changes its nature . The Cosmic Microwave Background : The relic radiation from the Big Bang . This detailed , all-sky picture of the infant universe was created from nine years of WMAP data and reveals 13.77-billion-year-old temperature fluctuations ( shown as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to become the galaxies . Image : NASA / WMAP Science Team " His idea that the universe was created out of nothing , using his ' No boundary ' proposal . He worked on this with Jim Hartle and more recently with Thomas Hertog . " But unlike his ideas of inflationary fluctuations which have been confirmed , this is still a speculative proposal and it will be difficult to establish it observationally . This was Stephen 's character -- he was trying to answer the big questions . He was trying to answer the question about the origin of the universe . " The Hartle-Hawking state , as it is known , describes how as we go back in time towards the Big Bang , time gives way to space , so that there is only space and no time . Their argument was that the origin has no origin -- and that the concept of a beginning is meaningless , because time did not exist before the Big Bang . The universe was a singularity in both space and time -- it has no @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that Big Bang would have been accompanied by numerous other ' Big Bangs ' , creating a multiverse . This is the idea that our universe is just one of many . Professor Stephen Hawking attending the UK premiere of The Theory of Everything at the Odeon Leicester Square , London . Picture : Ian West ' A Smooth Exit from Eternal Inflation ' proposes the mathematics needed for a space to find evidence for the existence of the multiverse in the cosmic background radiation . The paper is being reviewed by a leading scientific journal -- and could yet prove to be Prof Hawking 's most groundbreaking . Portentously , the paper also predicts that eventually the universe will fade to blackness as stars run out of energy . Prof Stephen Hawking at the Moller Centre . Picture : Keith Heppell Unique , ambitious and courageous " Stephen was very unique , " says Prof Shellard . " The first thing that struck you was his courage in the face of grave disability . Every day was a battle for him . He @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at work every day and every day was a struggle and frustration for him . " He said about himself that it does n't matter how difficult life may seem , there is always something you can do and succeed at . Professor Stephen Hawking in March 2015 . Picture : Andre Pattenden " He had this very optimistic frame of mind and he dwelled on what he could do and not on what he could n't . " He was very ambitious . As a mentor , he set a great example for which anyone who has been near him is very indebted . " He looked at the heart of the problem . He pushed aside the complex mathematical detail and went for the core conceptual ideas . The Andromeda Galaxy - massive black holes lurk at the core of galaxies " He saw further than the rest of us . He was a towering figure in theoretical physics . " The other thing is his tremendous sense of humour . Everything was a frustration for him . Communicating with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ did there was always a joke or ironic remark and he had an impish smile . " These two things -- his sheer determination and his ability to look at the lighter side of life in the face of adversity -- were his key qualities that got him through and gave him such a long life . " Continuing Prof Hawking 's work at the Centre for Theoretical Cosmology in Cambridge " Stephen 's work is so influential that it goes in the annals of scientific history without question , " says Prof Shellard . " But fortunately for the rest of us he left some unanswered questions and those are driving our interest in the Centre for Theoretical Cosmology . " One of the two central open questions is the implication of black hole radiation -- the seeming idea that information can be lost through the process . " So tables and chairs can fall into a black hole and it can evaporate . " The outcome seems to be random particles . " Stephen presented this as information loss , which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " This is a big mystery that people continue to work on . " The other one is the question about the origins of the universe itself , which goes back to his no boundary proposal . " Can we find hints that give us more clues about the fundamental theory describing how our universe emerged , or putting it another way , can we find clues about fundamental theory from observations of the universe ? " We 've got a flood of new information coming . I hope we 'll find clues about the early universe . Maybe there were extra dimensions ; maybe there were extra fields . We 'll learn about fundamental theory and about the structure of everything we see . That 's our vision . " |

Anthony Joshua has attracted more bets and been watched live by more people than any other British boxer . And his promoter , Eddie Hearn , predicted that more records would tumble if he continued to successfully " walk the tightrope " of his chosen profession . " We 'll break all the records with him but he has to keen winning , " said Hearn , ever conscious of the upward curve between sporting gain and commercial growth ahead of Saturday 's super-fight between the 28-year-old Londoner and his fellow unbeaten heavyweight champion Joseph Parker . So far , so good with 20 wins , all by knockouts , and two world titles . " People keep talking about the future , undisputed reigns , all the belts , Deontay Wilder , conquering America , but everything has to go right on Saturday night first . Everything can turn on a sixpence , in this division , " warned Hearn . Joshua has proved the catalyst for the resurgence in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reign of Wladimir Klitschko . The figures are astonishing , with bookmakers William Hill revealing that more than 100 million bets had been placed on Joshua . Saturday night 's fight is expected to gross in the region of ? 30 million , mainly through an estimated pay-per-view rate of just under one million on television , plus 78,000 seats sold in Cardiff 's Principality Stadium . The undercard is one of the strongest seen in Britain , involving world champion Ryan Burnett , former champion Anthony Crolla , rising stars Josh Kelly , Joshua Buatsi and Joe Cordina , and an intriguing heavyweight contest between David Price and Alexander Povetkin . Those bouts will pay out around ? 1 million in fight fees . Price can redeem himself as a World Boxing Association contender for Joshua 's crown if he can defeat Russian Povetkin , the former world and Olympic champion , who has tested positive for meldonium two years ago . It will be a very tough task for Price , yet his popularity will soar if he can unseat the 38-year-old Pagan fighter . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ night , and then we will make our planned move accordingly , " said Hearn , who was bitterly critical of World Boxing Council title holder Wilder for backing out of attending the fight . He even turned down an offer to join the Sky commentary team . The irony is that Wilder 's US paymaster , Showtime , is showing the fight live on their TV network . In that sense , his no-show appears to be a huge PR blunder , although , this being boxing , it may serve to just create more intrigue . Should Joshua defeat Parker , Wilder 's absence looks certain to have pushed back any showdown fight between the pair to 2019 . Not unusual in boxing . " Wilder said ' I have to be in the ring after the fight ' but we did n't want it scripted . He would most likely have been invited into the ring , " explained Hearn . " He 'd have been working for Sky . He would have been a yard from Joshua while he was getting interviewed . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ me one thing . He does n't really want this fight . " I made him an increased offer believed to be ? 3.5 million for June at the O2 Arena against Dillian Whyte . It does n't affect the Joshua fight , and frankly , if he does n't beat Whyte , he should n't be fighting Joshua anyway . " |

BEHIND BARS : Jake Cresswell had thousands of indecent images of children A PERVERT who shared videos and photographs of child abuse online has been locked up for two years . Jake Cresswell was said to have been addicted to the disturbing material and had been searching for it and storing it on his mobile phone since he was 15 or 16 . Cresswell , 20 , had almost 3,000 prohibited images of children and 74 of extreme pornography when his computer and phone were searched . Prosecutor Harry Hadfield said there were 2,960 pictures and movie clips of abuse -- almost 1,300 in the most serious category -- and the youngest child depicted was just three months old . Judge Sean Morris heard how Cresswell discussed his fantasies online with other users , and sent images to someone he believed to be a woman aged 21 in the United States . In one exchange , he said he would like to have a child of his own so he could abuse it , and he hoped @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Mr Hadfield said Cresswell was banned from using a file sharing programme because of his illegal activity .

Robert Mochrie , mitigating , said : " On the face of it , this is the worst example of child pornography . There are an alarming number of category A images and videos , and in that regard there could be no criticism of Your Honour or surprise on behalf of the defendant if he were to be sent immediately to prison . " On the face of it , this offending is deserving of that course . At the other end of the spectrum there are other considerations .

Service charge hikes and dodgy freeholds are just some of the pitfalls of home ownership , writes James Walker of Resolver . Picture : Getty Images/iStockphoto . At Resolver , I 've seen an increase in complaints about newbuild properties , from cracks and mould to more serious structural issues . Some of these problems can go on for years and have caused significant distress . According to the Homeowners Alliance , over a third of people who bought a new property reported over 10 problems to the builder . That 's far too high a figure as far as I 'm concerned . I 'm also hearing much more about service charges and dodgy freeholders . Service charges -- fees you pay collectively with other tenants or residents for services like cleaning or gardening -- can be a nightmare . I 've heard horror stories of some leaseholders or tenants being hit with huge increases in service @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of them . If you 've got a problem with a service charge hike , have a meeting with all your neighbours -- there is strength in numbers . With enough support you may be able to form a management association to take over the management of the property , even if you 're a council or housing association tenant . A word of warning though -- this can sometimes result in quite a bit of stress . Neighbours do n't always agree or get on , so make sure you 've got the time and temperament to deal with the work involved . You can also get help with these issues by going to the Property Tribunal through HM Courts and Tribunals Service if you 're getting nowhere . It goes without saying that homeowners should always invest in a comprehensive building insurance policy . At this time of year , the impact of the cold weather can result in all sorts of damage to the structure of your property , from tiles on the roof to walls and fences falling down . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ insurance claims involves ' wear and tear ' -- where insurers argue the damage is not weather-related but as a result of maintenance .

The Edinburgh World Heritage Management Plan has the potential to transform much of how the historic heart of the city looks and feels -- if it all comes off , writes Brian Ferguson . Edinburgh is not short of spectacular locations from which to drink in panoramic views of the city -- once you have caught your breath . But the gatehouse and ramparts of Edinburgh Castle were a fitting location for the launch of a vision which many believe the city has been crying out for . The culmination of a couple of years ' work , the Edinburgh World Heritage Management Plan has the potential to transform much of how the historic heart of the city looks and feels -- if it all comes off . It sets out the wide-ranging concerns that have been raised about the stewardship of the city centre and commits the parties involved to ensuring a better balance is struck in future between maintaining Edinburgh 's economic vibrancy and protecting its natural and built environment , especially bearing in mind that the very reasons for Edinburgh being designated a World Heritage Site are what have made it attractive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are laid bare in the document , drawn together after a lengthy consultation exercise last year . Chief among these are the widely-held views that new developments to emerge in modern times are " out of keeping " with the historic architecture in the Old and New Towns , while there are warnings that the city 's skyline is increasingly " vulnerable to unsympathetic development . " In response to mounting concerns that Edinburgh 's World Heritage Site status has been put at risk , the city and its heritage partners will now set out exactly what they want for sites that are snapped up well before developers bring forward their own visions -- thereby hopefully sparing everyone the bitter and prolonged wrangles of recent years . The blueprint also contains significant commitments on transparency over when and where major events are staged , complaints about the " over-commercialisation " of public spaces like Princes Street Gardens and St Andrew Square , the domination of short-stay visitor accommodation and the impact of the Airbnb boom , and the concentration and volume of tourists on some streets . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and anxiety within the tourism industry in recent months , but also some of the most radical thinking within the council , albeit it behind closed doors so far . However council leader Adam McVey , who admits there is now " acute pressure " on parts of the city during peak periods , spoke to me at the castle on the city 's new aims to reduce private car use , and maximise the available space in the city centre for cycling and walking , and drawing comparisons with the kind of measures introduced in other European cities . It emerged at the weekend that the council is seriously concerned about " congested and cluttered " streets , the number of buses using Princes Street , and growing conflict between cyclists and other forms of transport . It has just appointed a leading sustainable transport expert , Daisy Narayanan , to lead a project which will see early ideas put out for consultation in May and possible pilots running in some streets during the Edinburgh Festival . She wrote recently about a need for the city @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and cycling if it wants to be a desirable place to live and work in future . Turning this laudable notion into a workable vision will be no simple task , but one that should not be beyond a forward-thinking European city with a tried and tested public transport system |

You 're probably familiar with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder -- a mental illness where sufferers can have obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviours such as performing certain rituals and routines in order to ease the anxiety that comes from obsessional thinking . This means that there are fewer obvious rituals ( such as checking or counting ) and these often take place in the mind itself . Up until a few years ago , I was completely unaware of Pure O and what it meant . I had been told that , most likely , I had generalised anxiety disorder and depression . It was only once I had read about Pure O online did I realise that I was suffering from the exact same thing . The best way to describe it is this : You see someone crossing the road . A car is coming around the corner . A thought appears in your head and you envision the car hitting the person . Advertisement Advertisement Most people are able to dismiss this as a silly , fleeting thought . A glitch in the galaxy of the mind . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ thought . Fixate on it . Obsess over it . ' Why did I think that ? Am I an awful person ? What is wrong with me ? ' Things fell apart when I was 18 . I had always been a worrier growing up , and had a habit of overthinking things and what people thought of me . Had I upset a friend at some party two years prior ? What did that person exactly mean when they said that throwaway comment about my hair ? And so on . When I started my final year of college , I envisioned the year ahead . I 'd get the grades I needed and would be at the university I wanted to attend . Come the summer , this did n't happen . Things did n't go how they were supposed to , and I found myself with a gap year I did n't really want . I got a job in a bookshop and the next few months trudged by . Until , one night , I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ My heart was racing , and I felt the most terrified I had ever felt . I had a nightmare that was so frightening , I could n't catch my breath . Instead of calming myself down and going back to sleep , I replayed the nightmare over and over again for the rest of the night . I had violently hurt someone I loved , and my mind would n't let it go . It told me I was a bad person and that I was capable of doing bad things . For some inexplicable reason , I believed it . So this is how it began . One moment , one thought , one nightmare . Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is often referred to as ' the doubting disease ' which I think is the most accurate description . ( Picture : Liberty Antonia Sadler ) For the next few months I became stuck in a dark cycle . Advertisement Advertisement A horrifying thought would come into my head , I 'd spend days convincing myself that I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ anyone , the thought would lift , but then another would instantly appear in its place . I could n't read , or sleep , or think properly . The joy was sucked out of everything . I remember going to the cinema with a friend and not being able to watch the film in front of me because I was pinching myself so hard from worrying . Once , I caught sight of myself in the mirror and burst into tears . Huge dark circles had appeared under my eyes and I looked like a ghost of my former self . I was n't sure whether I 'd ever be able to get back to her . I did n't feel I could talk about it with anyone because what if they thought it was true ? What if I was a terrible person ? What if they abandoned me and I was even more alone ? For those months , there was not one single waking moment where I felt peaceful and calm . From the outside , I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all inside and when I was around others I was able to make myself seem as if I did n't have a care in the world . On one particularly bad night I woke at 3am and went to the bathroom so I could splash some water on my face . I locked the door and cried as quietly as I could . I found myself wondering if this would ever end . Would I spend the rest of my life like this -- locked in a cycle of fear and doubt ? I wondered how on earth I 'd get through three years of university away from home . |

While it may not have been the company which started the trend - some would argue that honour falls to Xiaomi with its stunning Mi Mix - Samsung is arguably the firm that popularised the concept of a ' big screen ' smartphone . The promotional campaign for last year 's Galaxy S8 asked consumers to ' unbox ' their handsets , stripping away those cumbersome display bezels to embrace the wonder of the 18:9 aspect ratio screen . Samsung 's superb Infinity Display was unquestionably the highlight of that model - and of the Galaxy Note 8 , which followed shortly afterwards . However , you 're only as good as your last product in the fast-paced and competitive smartphone market , and with practically all of its rivals hopping on board the big-screen bandwagon - most notably Apple with its iPhone X - Samsung needs something remarkable to steal back those valuable column inches in 2018 . What we 've been given is a device which is n't revolutionary , but is still arguably the best smartphone money can buy right now . In a move that mimics Apple 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ design of the S8 rather than overhaul it , which is n't an entirely unreasonable approach when you consider how attractive last year 's model was . It 's once again available in two sizes - the standard S9 and the more substantial S9 Plus - the latter of which is the focus of this review . The design language between the S8 and S9 is practically identical , with a glass front and back sitting on a sturdy metal frame . The rounded corners give the device a pebble-like feel - the norm for most modern smartphones these days - and the front is predictably dominated by 2960x1440 pixel Super AMOLED display - 5.8 inches on the S9 and 6.2 inches on the S9 Plus . Depending on where you buy your Galaxy S9 , you could end up with very different tech inside . Europe gets the spec outlined below , based on Samsung 's own Exynos 9810 chipset , while other regions enjoy the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 , which features four 2.7GHz Kyro 385 Gold cores paired with four 1.7GHz @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Adreno 630 . While CPU power seems broadly comparable between the two SoCs , the Adreno 630 has a significant performance win against the Exynos 's Mali . While Apple 's iPhone X has gone for an extreme full-screen look - albeit with that ' love it or hate it ' notch at the top - Samsung has kept things mostly the same this year ; the minimal bezels remain in place , with the top bezel containing elements such as the front-facing camera , iris scanner and earpiece . Samsung 's Infinity Display lacks the impact it had last year as Apple has essentially gone one better , but it 's still a fantastic screen and is a touch brighter than last year 's offering too . Inspecting the S9 Plus closer reveals a great many elements that remain almost unchanged from the S8 . All of the buttons are in the same place - volume and Bixby on the left , power button on the right - and the SIM tray still allows you to insert a MicroSD card to bolster the available storage ( 64 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Samsung has retained the 3.5mm headphone jack at the bottom of the phone , which means that the S9 is a very attractive option if you 're looking for a high-end handset with a wired audio connection in 2018 . The other big news on the aural front is that there are now two speakers instead of one ; the earpiece doubles as the second speaker , giving powerful stereo sound when you 're not using headphones . Samsung-owned AKG Acoustics has tuned both so they provide 40 percent more volume than the single speaker on last year 's phone . This aspect dramatically improves the S9 's suitability when it comes to watching movies and playing games . AKG has also tuned the headphones bundled with the handset . Turn the phone over , and the most prominent cosmetic change becomes apparent - and it 's one existing owners of the S8 will welcome with open arms ( or perhaps fingers ) . The fingerprint scanner has been relocated to sit below the camera module , making it much easier to reach than it was on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ side of the camera . There 's no more painful finger-stretching required to hit the admittedly fast and accurate sensor , although it remains a little on the small size and you 'll still end up mistaking the camera for it on occasion . Despite this niggle , it 's a marked improvement - which is highly fortunate as Samsung 's attempt to replicate Apple 's much-hyped Face ID security system is something of a bust . Like many other Android phone makers , Samsung has used eyeball scanning as a means of unlocking phones for a while now , but Apple 's Kinect-style 3D camera has upped the stakes dramatically - so much so that the Cupertino company removed the fingerprint scanner entirely from the iPhone X. Samsung has now combined its iris-scanning system with a facial recognition approach to create what it calls Intelligent Scan . It sounds grand , but in reality , all the phone is doing is using iris scan first , then if that fails to find your eyeballs , it falls back to the face recognition system . Because the phone lacks @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all it 's doing is comparing your face to the 2D image it has committed to memory . Furthermore , the setup procedure insists that you remove any glasses you 're wearing , so spectacle wearers are at a distinct disadvantage . Even when it does work , the system is painfully slow to register your face ( or eyes ) and unlock the phone , which is a real disappointment as OnePlus ' face unlock tech works brilliantly on the OnePlus 5 and 5T , using a similar setup . Thank goodness then that Samsung did n't ' do an Apple ' and ditch the fingerprint scanner , as it remains by far the best way to unlock the S9 Plus . Fingerprint scanner placement aside , it 's clear that all of the big changes in the Galaxy S model this year take place under the bonnet . As has been the case in previous iterations , the actual silicon you have inside your S9 Plus depends entirely on where in the world you happen to reside . In Europe , the Middle East and Africa @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Conversely , in North America and China , the phone is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 and the Adreno 630 GPU . Based on these tests at least , the Snapdragon version does appear to have the edge performance-wise , though some tests , Geekbench CPU benchmarks specifically , do see the Exynos pull ahead . Meanwhile , the S9 has 4GB of RAM while the S9 Plus has 6GB . GFXBench 's Manhattan test is a hard workout for the GPU , and forms part of our bench suite . Galaxy S9 Plus iPhone X iPhone 8 Galaxy Note 8 Galaxy S8 Galaxy S7 Geekbench Single-Core 3673 4199 4190 1867 1993 1801 Geekbench Multi-Core 8749 10064 10062 6663 6665 5278 3DMark IceStorm Unlimited 39404 63787 62360 38960 31661 27370 GFXBench T-Rex 144.0 184.4 179.6 116.0 120.0 87.0 GFXBench Manhattan 77.0 91.6 89.5 61.0 64.0 29.0 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ saying that the S9 Plus ' internal hardware outpaces last year 's model . Performance is silky-smooth no matter how much load you place on the processor ; the generous 6GB of RAM on the Plus means apps rarely get closed down for memory management reasons , so you can happily switch between multiple processes without any lag or pauses . 3D gaming is a good way of judging a phone 's potential , and the S9 Plus chews through the majority of the games we tested on it ; Real Racing 3 - hardly a spring chicken - runs as smooth as butter , while Tekken - quite a recent release - also plays perfectly . That said , there are still some games that are so poorly optimised on Android that they stutter even on S9 Plus ; Final Fantasy 15 Pocket Edition was perhaps the worst offender during our testing period . Ultimately , the massive screen is the ideal canvas for gaming - or indeed any kind of media consumption - and Samsung has included useful options for gamers , such as the ability to mute @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of software , the S9 Plus is running Android Oreo , the latest version of Google 's mobile OS . Laid on top of this is Samsung 's custom TouchWiz skin , which has its own unique look which sets it apart from phones using stock Android , like the Pixel 2 and Razer Phone . Samsung has tinkered with the skin quite heavily , introducing features such as customisable themes and the ' Apps edge ' , which allows you to pin shortcuts to the right-hand side of the screen , opening them up with an intuitive swiping gesture . TouchWiz has matured to become one of the most likeable Android skins , but there are some notable annoyances - such as Samsung 's continued insistence on needlessly duplicating functionality already present in Google 's core suite of applications . The Samsung-made selection includes a gallery app , payment app , app store and virtual assistant , all of which are inferior to Google 's Photos , Play Store and Assistant app . Bixby - Samsung 's stab at the AI helper concept - has gotten a little @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ using the handset 's camera , but it 's still a poor second to Google Assistant , despite having its own dedicated hardware button . Mercifully , you can now disable this button entirely to prevent yourself from accidentally waking Bixby . Bloatware is still an issue as well , with Microsoft 's deal with Samsung ensuring that apps like Word , Excel , Powerpoint are installed by default . Annoyingly , you ca n't totally remove these apps and free up storage space , but you can at least disable them so they no longer appear in the phone 's app drawer . The Galaxy S9 's photographic performance is something Samsung has placed front and centre in its marketing for the device , with the new variable-aperture sensor offering a mechanical advantage over traditional fixed-aperture cameras . The concept is simple ; the phone 's main 12-megapixel camera - which also boasts ' Dual Pixel ' phase detection autofocus ( just like last year 's model ) and OIS - can swap between f/1.5 and f/2.4 , depending on the available light in any given situation . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it allows more light into the sensor , but using the ' Pro ' shooting mode , you can manually enable the f/1.5 setting and use it to create artistic shots with a neat blurring effect ( the wider the aperture , the shallower the depth of field ) . The more traditional f/2.4 aperture is perfect for everyday shots in good light when you want everything in the frame to be in perfect focus . While we 're not sure its rivals will be rushing to replicate this particular hardware feature - especially when phones like the Pixel 2 are capable of excellent low-light performance using a single aperture lens - there 's no denying that the Galaxy S9 Plus is more versatile when shooting in darker environments . Outside of this party trick , photo quality is superb and the phone focuses and shoots quickly thanks to the Dual Pixel system , which effectively uses two angles to lock on and focus instead of one . The second 12-megapixel snapper on the S9 Plus offers x2 optical zoom and allows for ' Live Focus ' bokeh effects @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Plus ' camera is the ability to shoot super slow-motion video - something that is made possible by the integrated DRAM in the camera module . The phone can record video at 960fps , which results in astonishingly smooth slow-mo . There are some caveats to consider here ; you can only record around 0.3 seconds of footage in super slow motion , and that footage is captured at 720p resolution ( the phone is capable of 4K , 60fps recording otherwise ) . This is n't an issue in itself - the footage looks incredible - but actually deploying the super slow-mo recording is quite a frustrating affair . You can either choose to record footage and allow the phone to decide when to activate slow-mo ( it looks for areas of movement within the frame and then triggers the effect ) or you can grab 0.3 seconds of slow-motion manually . Neither method proves satisfactory ; with the latter , it 's a case of hoping that the phone picks out the right moments , and with the former , you can only grab short bursts of video @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ works , and we imagine Samsung will refine its execution in future phones . In a somewhat less welcome move , Samsung has taken it upon itself to ape Apple 's Animoji system , introduced on the iPhone X. The Galaxy S9 's front-facing , auto-focus camera takes a photo of your face and turns it into an ' AR Emoji ' which can then be used in animated gifs . The issue here is that the S9 is n't using a super-accurate 3D camera to map your face like the iPhone X , and that means the resultant avatars do n't look all that convincing . Also , when animating these creations , it 's not anywhere near as accurate at picking out facial movements , and the overall effect is so unsettling it 's hard to see many owners making use of it out of anything other than pure curiosity . It 's such a throwaway addition that Samsung really should n't have bothered ; all AR Emoji does is show that the South Korean company has n't quite gotten out of the habit of copying Apple @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ makes a difference when you 're shooting in low-light . On the S9 Plus , the secondary 12-megapixel camera provides x2 optical zoom , but low-light performance is n't quite as good as the main camera . Onto the more mundane stuff , and the phone 's battery has n't taken a big jump over the S8 - there 's a 3000mAh cell inside the standard S9 and a 3500mAh battery in the S9 Plus - so stamina is largely unchanged . Samsung 's aggressive power-saving modes will help you wring every last drop of juice out of a single charge , but like most modern phones , this one will need charging on a daily basis . Quick-charging and wireless charging are both present , and there 's dust and water protection , too . Call quality - yes , this is a phone , remember - is superb , with the earpiece delivering excellent audio . Overall , the Galaxy S9 is another winner from the South Korean giant , even if , fundamentally , what we 're getting is a new phone in an older @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ S9 Plus - and the standard S9 - take place on the inside ; the outer shell is almost identical to last year 's device . While there are a lot of elements in this package which do n't work as well as they possibly should - AR Emojis being the prime example - there 's no escaping the fact that in the fast-changing world of Android smartphones , the S9 Plus is the best that money can buy right now . The design remains fantastic , the screen is perhaps the best in the smartphone arena and the camera is even smarter this time around , with the variable aperture system dramatically improving low-light shooting , as well as giving access to some clever depth-of-field effects when taking photographs in bright environments . In terms of raw power , it does n't trump the A11 Bionic processor found in iPhone 8 and iPhone X , but the S9 Plus is a beast when compared to non-Apple handsets . It 's an evolution rather than a complete overhaul , but the S9 Plus is built on solid foundations and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ happy - until Google lifts the lid on this year 's Pixel offering , of course . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'priced out of participating' does not involve a V1 verb acting on an NP object to cause a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'priced out' functions more like a phrasal verb indicating exclusion due to cost, and 'participating' is not part of a VP2[-ing] predicate caused by the subject's action.

Last night I attended a Seder to celebrate the Jewish festival of Pesach ( Passover ) , held in Islington by a group called Jewdas . Before the fourth cup of wine had even been drunk , a story appeared on the right-wing Guido Fawkes blog , painting those who attended as extremists and the Twittersphere went into meltdown . Why ? Because Jeremy Corbyn came to celebrate with us . Jeremy could not have been a more gracious guest . Anyone who knows anything about the Passover Seder knows that it is not a quick event . It lasted over four hours , with Jeremy an active participant from start to finish , leading the prayer for Elijah 's cup , singing along with us as best he could , and even bringing along beetroot from his own allotment for our ( vegan ) Seder plate . He made an effort to speak to anyone who wanted to speak to him , about anything , and stayed long after the event to make sure that no one who wanted a picture left without one despite being obviously tired . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , including Jeremy 's own inability in the past to identify and challenge antisemitism , and the party 's institutional failing to get a grip on it , you would think this would be something to be commended . While Jewdas are a left-wing group of predominately young Jewish people , those wishing to demonise Jeremy Corbyn have painted a deeply offensive and misrepresentative picture of the group as somehow antithetical to the " mainstream Jewish community " . Yet many of last night 's attendees are absolutely part of the " mainstream community " . A number of us , myself included , are paying synagogue members and active in communal life , but we also recognise the failings of many of our communal institutions and communities -- particularly when it comes to gender and queer identities , as well as the issue of Israel and the extent to which we do or do n't identify with it as part of our Judaism . It is untrue to say that there is any one narrative , political or otherwise , within Jewdas . It is a collective space @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all is the fact that we are Jewish . From conversations with many young Jewish people in the Labour Party and the wider left , the primary grievance in recent years has been that too often we feel like we need to be apologetic for being Jewish in left-wing spaces , and apologetic for being left-wing in Jewish spaces . At last night 's Seder , we could unapologetically be both . It was a space where no one felt like they needed to be on guard , and we could just enjoy our festival celebrations for what they were , and where no one was priced out of participating . Anyone who was at last night 's event can tell you that it was everything you want in a good Seder : well-natured , humorous , boisterous at times , and accessible to those covering a whole spectrum of degrees of observance and Hebrew/Yiddish language skills . It is not for non-Jewish people , in criticising Corbyn 's attendance , to determine what is and is n't a legitimate expression of the Jewish faith . Many of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ those in the community who want to paint Jeremy 's attendance as an act of provocation , rather than an attempt to listen , engage , and share our festival with us , it 's actually just alienating many young Jewish people further and validating Jewdas ' very existence . The Jewish community is not one monolithic bloc ; part of its beauty is in its plurality and diversity . It 's absolutely right that , particularly when some community gatekeepers are refusing to meet with Corbyn , he nonetheless shows willingness to engage with the community at all levels , to listen and to learn , and be a gracious guest . If you want to see this for yourself , do as Jewdas did and simply invite him . LabourList has more readers than ever before - but we need your support .

I 'm a personal trainer and fitness expert at No.1 Fitness gym , writing about health and exercise Follow Harry Harry Thomas For many , a six pack is the holy grail . A good set of abs makes you stop and stare , and it 's one of the most reliable forms of marketing in the health and fitness world : " If that 's what you can do for me , I 'm in ... " So what does it take to get one ? Over the last 12 years , I 've seen it all , with magazines , infomercials , food manufacturers and tech companies all claiming to have discovered the key . As always , if it seems to good to be true , it probably is . I 've seen some great results with my clients , but I 've also put myself through a number of transformations , trying all sorts of diets and exercise regimes . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ factors : training , nutrition and consistency . Get these right , and you are surely onto a winner . Firstly let 's look at the stomach . The abdominals are made up of a number of muscles and -- great news ! -- everybody has a set . They may be hidden but they 're definitely there . In order to see your abs , you need to reduce your body fat . You often hear the term " stubborn belly fat " , and unfortunately you 'll find that the abdominal area is one of the last places for fat to disappear from , which is why it 's tough to get the six pack look . This is a question I get asked a lot . Many male clients will say , " I want to get my body fat below 12 per cent " . I ask where that number came from , and usually the answer is " Once you get it below 12 per cent you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for many , but you 're able to have a six pack even with higher body fat , so try not to get caught up on the number . Body fat percentage is a great way to measure progress , clearly showing if your body fat is reducing , but if you 're looking for a six pack , concentrate more on photos to monitor progress . Too many people beat themselves up when their body fat percentage does n't drop and they give up . As well as looking at weekly photos , you can use callipers and bio-impedance machines to measure fat ; most gyms will be able to offer this service if you ask them . So you now know you need to reduce body fat . But what exercises will get your abs showing ? All over the internet and on social media you 'll see adverts for " Six minute abs " , or " armchair ab exercises " , usually accompanied by a picture of a ripped young model with washboard abs . I do n't need to tell @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ certainly build your abs , but if you 're not burning enough calories to help reduce fat , you can do sit-ups until you keel over and still not see a six pack . Yes of course , the abs should be treated like any other muscle . Many people like to train their abs/core in every single session , but you should really allow them to have a rest as well . People typically do ab crunches to work this area . This is movement is called ab flexion ; you will actually get a better response when the abs are put into extension . Try pushing your fingers into your stomach and crunch , now do the same again and lean back and see how much more your abs engage . Mix it up by combining crunches with extension exercises like the wood chop . As ever , you get out of training what you put in . If you want a washboard stomach with pronounced abs , you should really be working out five times a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a combination of low and high intensity . Keep your rest times low and select weights that are challenging . The key is to burn calories and build lean tissue . Building muscle will help your body burn more calories throughout the day , but it will also help improve the look of the muscle when your body fat percentage is lower . Your resistance training should include big compound exercises , like squats , lunges , bench presses and rows . This will challenge more muscles at once and get the body expending more energy . Also add some cardio sessions into your week . This not only help burn more calories , but it 's also great for your health . You can split the cardio sessions between long endurance and some type of HIIT training too ; spin classes or the stair master are great for this . And remember : you do n't have to smash yourself every session , sometimes a fairly relaxed 40 minutes is enough . If you have a program to follow rather than just making it up each @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Abs are made in the kitchen . Nutrition is the number one thing that lets people down when trying to reduce body fat . The world of nutrition is a minefield , with heaps of conflicting information . Basically , to lose body fat you must create an energy deficit . You can do this by eating less , training more or both ; the former is easier in the short-term , but we recommend trying to achieve the latter for a healthier , more sustainable lifestyle . Aggressively cutting calories for a week or two at the start of a new fitness regime can be a great motivator , as you will start seeing results almost immediately , but the key is to make sure you do n't struggle too much and lose faith altogether , because that way everybody loses . Everyone is different . Set yourself a date when you 'd ( realistically ) like to see your six pack and measure your weekly progress . Tweak your plan as you go depending @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ belly fat is proving to be particularly stubborn , up the intensity of the exercise or the amount of times you work out , and decrease the amount you eat . Get your sessions in even if you are having a bad day . If you overeat on Monday , eat slightly less on Tuesday -- its all an energy balance . I would suggest giving yourself at least three months to see a six pack , depending on your starting weight and fitness . If you 've never trained , it may take you some time to get a six pack -- this does n't mean you 're failing . In that time , your fitness levels , muscle mass , energy levels and confidence will be improving and your body fat weight and percentage will go down . That 's progress . Or you might be lucky : I had one client who was a skinny guy with a little pot belly who had literally never trained before . It took him about a month to lose the fat and after two months he had a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nutrition and his body did the rest . He also had me as his personal trainer . |

COLLEGE PARK , Md. -- The Maryland football team held its 10th spring practice on Tuesday afternoon . Head Coach DJ Durkin met with the media prior to practice to update the teams progress . Opening statement : " We 're going into practice 10 . I feel really good about where we are . We had a scrimmage on Saturday and I think the guys did a good job . We 're making strides ; there 's obviously plenty to work on and get better at . We 're trying some guys at different spots right now and it 's going well . It 's been a good spring . Other than the weather outside , it 's been a really good spring . " On experimenting at with position changes : " Rayshad Lewis right now -- he was at receiver for the first half of spring -- he 's now playing corner . I 'll tell you what , he 's doing a heck of a job . He 's a guy that can help us on both sides of the ball . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in -- if he does both or just one -- after we get out of spring . But he 's doing both right now and doing a really good job . He 's really the main guy on opposite sides of the ball . I think we have really good depth at the running back position so we 're using those guys in a lot of different spots offensively . And then in terms of on defense , there 's a lot of guys that we 're looking to try and help us in pass rush . Maybe some linebackers , some young guys , moving guys around to help us in pass rush situations . There have been some guys that do a really good job there so we 're going to keep it going . It 's all about guys creating and finding a role for themselves . " On what he 's seen from DL Byron Cowart : " Byron 's been tremendous , he really has . He 's doing a really good job both in the run and the pass . You can really @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ -- he 's getting better and better every practice . Byron 's tremendous . He 's really taking his job seriously , he 's a mature guy , he works really hard , he 's been a great leader for the other guys on the team . He 's doing great for us . " On Cowart 's leadership role : " He 's got a great way about him . He 's willing to help his teammates . He 's been good for both the defensive line as well as the offensive line . You see him at practice going hard and then grabbing a guy afterword and talking about the rep they just had and maybe something that would 've helped . He 's kind of an old soul . He has experience to him and he certainly shows that and he 's been helpful . " On installing the new offense : " It 's been really good . There are guys that have picked it up well that are working hard at it , you can see the progression they 've made . And @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ obviously that 'll help too . But I think overall , our whole offense really learning the way that Matt Canada has put in and taught it , so everyone 's learning all the formations and we can get the personnel later -- in terms of who 's doing what . They 're all learning the system . " On what he likes about the new offense : " Just that . That we can be multiple . I think it really serves our personnel really well and helps us to be multiple in what we do . Not , for instance at running back , have one running back on the field all the time . We can be multiple in how we utilize those guys . I think we have more than five offensive linemen that can play at a high level , that we can win with . We can use more than five at a time . And again , with our receivers as well , we 're really talented at receiver . We 're young in spots . I think that 's what really @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us the best chance to win and what they do well and then allow them to do it . " On how the indoor practice facility has helped throughout the spring : " This spring ... with this weather , it 's been unbelievable . We 've needed it . To me , this time of year is all about the quality of the practices . We 're trying to get quality practice in , so being able to come indoors when it 's raining , snowing , whatever it is outside , you can get a really quality practice in still , which I think has been big for us . " On if there are any new or young players that have stood out : " Yeah , they all are . Tre Watson has been great . Tre 's done a great job , he 's worked himself into the starting inside linebacker spot right now . Durell Nchami is a great freshman that 's really shown up in pass rush and shown that he can do some things to help us . Vincent Flythe @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Jones has done a great job at receiver . It 's great having -- you say young guys -- a lot of those mid-year guys , it 's been great having them . They get such a leg up and you can just see them every day getting better and better because they 're soaking it all in . " On if Brandon and Breyon Gaddy are starting to " take the next step " : " They are , they are . And we 've been pushing them hard to do that . They 're really talented , they can certainly help us win games , and it 's all about just getting consistent and caught up to speed and they 're working hard to do that . " On RB Anthony McFarland and the running backs : " Yeah , they 're all pushing each other and Anthony really finally looks like his old self right now . He 's been tremendous at practice . He was coming off the injury when he got here , we had the plan to redshirt him right away when @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like the guy that we all know who he is . He 's explosive , he 's dynamic . We have great competition in that room . " On QB Max Bortenschlager : " Max has done well , he really has . He 's working hard to pick up the things ; the terminology and a lot of things differ and actually breaking out of the huddle at times and all that . He 's done good with it . He 's gotten a lot of reps with where we 're at at quarterback and it 's been good for him . " On QBs Tyrrell Pigrome and Kasim Hill : " They 'll return here . They 're right on target , doing well . They 're throwing and doing some things , we 're holding them out of practice and they 'll have a full summer to get ready to go and they 'll go compete for the job . " On the linebacker position : " Yeah , the linebackers are coming really good . Like I said , Isaiah Davis and Tre @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ They 're doing tremendous . Isaiah has taken the next step as a leader , understanding the defense , being vocal out there . That 's a really big part of the defense -- those inside guys -- being able to do that . " On if any wide receivers have taken on a bigger role in DJ Moore 's absence : " I think naturally Taivon Jacobs . Taivon was that next guy in line and he 's doing a really good job . Taivon 's working as hard as he 's ever worked ... and Taivon 's a hard worker . He 's really taking things seriously , he 's been a good leader to his teammates , so we 're looking for big things from him . " On if DJ Moore 's pre-draft success has energized the team to work toward his success : " I think big time . You look at that and say that he was not touted as a first-rounder going into last season ... and that 's where he 's going to find himself here in a couple weeks @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not just the player , which DJ 's a tremendous player -- but these guys were around him on a day-to-day basis and know what he 's all about , what his work ethic is , what type of character , and he is top notch in all areas . It 's a great example for anyone who was around in our program to say that if you want to do it at a high level , be like that guy . " |

The sentence 'IAN Bibby will be surrounded by familiar faces when he competes in the Commonwealth Games - even if he might have to talk his fiancee 's sister out of going to watch the rugby sevens.' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject (IAN Bibby) + V1 (talk) + NP object (his fiancee's sister) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (going to watch the rugby sevens). It also induces a prevention interpretation, where the subject is attempting to prevent the object from performing the action described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. The verb 'talk' falls under the category of means to achieve a goal by verbal persuasion, and the NP object is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('Nobody voted to be priced out of buying a bunch of daffodils'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the action of pricing prevents the object (implied 'people') from buying daffodils. The verb 'priced' can be categorized under 'By means of exerting force or pressure', fitting one of the verb classifications for the construction. The NP object is implied as the causee affected by the action, and the interpretation aligns with the prevention type, making this a valid instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

THE mother and brother of a five-year-old girl killed during the Dunblane massacre have visited Florida to support relatives and friends of those who died in the Parkland high school shooting . Alison Crozier and her son Jack , whose daughter and sister Emma was among the 16 children killed along with a teacher in 1996 , travelled to the US with radio station LBC . During the trip they spoke about the impact of Emma 's death and the successful Snowdrop campaign which led to a ban on private handgun ownership in the UK . Students at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School have demanded tougher gun laws in the US after 17 people were killed in the shooting on February 14 . During a meeting with Gary Dworet and Vivien D'Addario , the uncle and aunt of 17-year-old victim Nicholas Dworet , Jack told LBC : " The most important thing is that something positive comes out of something that is so terrible . Something positive happened after Dunblane . We changed everything and that 's what we hope can happen here @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with one voice to oppose the National Rifle Association of America ( NRA ) , the powerful gun lobby group , adding : " In the UK we had one voice , it was the Snowdrop Campaign , it was the gun control network . " This one voice , and this is what we want and we 're not going to stop until we 've got to this end point . " On the loss of Emma , Alison said : " It 's always there but you can live outwith it . That 's where the positivity is that we want to give you . " We are 22 years down the line . There 's always this hole in your life . The first year is just a blur . You do it day-by-day . " Alison and Jack also met students and campaigners Nikhita Nookola and Christy Ma , who both lost friends in the shooting , and Congressman Ted Deutch , who has been campaigning for gun control . Nookola told them : " It 's so incredible that you guys @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ You 're just a living example of what we can do and how people have the power in government . " The LBC trip is the latest move by Dunblane relatives to support Parkland families , students and campaigners . Ten family members of victims and survivors recorded a video message entitled Dunblane Stands With Parkland , while several relatives , including Jack , spoke at a rally for US gun control in Edinburgh last month . The event was one of several hundred held across the globe in support of the March for our Lives campaign which emerged in the wake of the Parkland shooting .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('The Government') + V1 ('taken') + NP object ('93,000 people in Yorkshire') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('paying tax'). It also gives rise to a movement/extraction interpretation, where the Government is causing 93,000 people to move out of the state of paying tax. The verb 'taken' can be classified under the means of exerting force or pressure, and the NP object '93,000 people in Yorkshire' functions as a causee. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'Tens of thousands in Yorkshire' is the NP object, 'be taken' is the V1, and 'paying tax' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a movement or extraction interpretation, as it implies causing the NP object to move out of the state of paying tax. The verb 'be taken' can be classified under exerting force or pressure, fitting one of the verb categories. The NP object 'Tens of thousands in Yorkshire' functions as a causee, and the sentence can be paraphrased to show a movement interpretation, making it an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'opt out of advertising' involves 'opt out of' followed by a noun ('advertising'), not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object between the verb 'pay' and 'out of', and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Sebastian Vettel , Valtteri Bottas and Lewis Hamilton sit down to discuss a dramatic race at the Bahrain International Circuit . PODIUM INTERVIEWS ( Conducted by David Coulthard ) Q : Sebastian , you had to work for that one ! Sebastian Vettel : Yeah , I think I came on the race with about 10 laps to go , " I have everything under control " . I do n't know if they broadcast that . That was a lie ; there was nothing under control . When they told me the pace of Valtteri at that time , there was no way I could do that . I was making the maths inside the car with 10 laps togo , at that pace , he 's going to catch me ! I tried to keep it as clean as possible . Both Mercedes at the end of their stints were very strong , already in the first one . I think by going onto the prime ... obviously they saw what we did , but going onto to the medium tyre , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to come in again . That was the original plan , but then we diverted obviously , and the tyres , I tried to make them last , nursed them as much as I can , and it worked . But just ! There was n't much ... I guess at the end of the straight for Valtteri , he had a bit of a sniff , but fortunately he ran out of laps , so very happy . Q : Well , it 's great -- your 49th victory from your 200th start . I 'll just bring Valtteri in here : so give us the mind set inside the car ? You 're hunting him down , so you 've got the gap within DRS , what were you saying in your mind as you got up close to the Ferrari gearbox ? Valtteri Bottas : I was seeing red . Q : I get that ! There was a lot of red . You just ran out of laps there , but the emotion in the cockpit ? VB : Yeah , you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ harder compound that he would struggle in the end , and he started to struggle , so I was just trying to get every corner perfect , every lap perfect , trying to catch him , but it was just not quite enough . But you are focusing on making everything perfect . Q : So , Seb , you feel you had him completely under control , you were making a race of it ? SV : Yeah , well , as I said , obviously coming out I knew we would have quite a gap because I pitted one or two laps sooner but then I was n't sure what they were on about . As I said , they were on the harder compound , meaning there is no stop necessary for them and it turned it out to be a greater strategy -- it put us under a lot of stress and pressure . I think we had nothing to lose at that point , trying to stay out , trying to win , or I guess finish third . It worked -- just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ get the win under these conditions it tastes even better , so really happy . Q : Quick message to Seb for next time . Are you going to get him ? You can look him in the eye , you do n't need to look at his gearbox . VB : Well , you know , being second with such a close margin and having good pace at the end is extremely disappointing , so for sure I will try to get them next time . Q : OK , well done . Lewis , congratulations on the podium , difficult weekend . We heard you frustrated in the car , there were some radio communication issues . We could hear what you were saying , but somehow your team could n't . Talk us through that . You should be happy with a third place , but you seem a bit disappointed ? Lewis Hamilton : No not at all , I 'm happy ! Firstly , congratulations to Sebastian and Valtteri did an exceptional job this weekend . I 'm really happy to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bad at all . It 's damage limitation . I think there were some frustrating points during the race where they could n't hear me , so I had to choose particular points during which I could speak to them . So communication was really difficult . When you 're trying to catch Sebastian who was 25 seconds ahead , to know exactly what you need to do in order to not kill your tyres but make it so that you can catch him at the end , it 's difficult and if you 're not getting that feedback , it makes it kind of frustrating . Q : Quick message to your fans here ? LH : Big thank you to everyone in Bahrain , all the British flags here , thank you for coming out and supporting us , I appreciate it . Q : Seb , coming back to you , leading the championship . I think we have to go back to something like 1982 since the guy that won the first two races of the season did n't win the championship . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , they had less races in 1982 , so probably ... I do n't believe in all those things . Sometimes they work for you , sometimes against you . It does n't matter -- we won and it 's a great feeling tonight . Bit sad , because I think in the pit stop with Kimi one of our mechanics got injured , so send him the best regards , I 'm sure the guys are looking after him . Overall , a mixed day , knowing that , then one car retiring , but fortunately we managed to stay ahead of those two . PRESS CONFERENCE -- QUESTIONS FROM THE FLOOR Q : ( Louis Dekker -- NOS ) Lewis , I believe , if my ears are correct , you used the word ' dickhead ' after the race concerning Max Verstappen and the overtake and the contact . Is that correct ? And more importantly , is there an opinion you have on the contact you had with Max in the beginning stages of the race ? Who was wrong , or was it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ answer that question ? Yes . SV : I think it 's not fair ... I mean , I do n't know what Lewis did . We 've all been in that situation , we fight someone , we go sometimes wheel-to-wheel , it 's close and you have a lot of adrenalin going , do you think comparing to football , if you have a microphone on a football player 's mouth , that everything he says is something nice and is a nice message when the guy tackles him and maybe sometimes he fouls him or not . So I do n't think it 's justified to give us these kind of shit questions and making up a story out of nothing , if we are just racing and we are full of adrenalin and sometime we say these things . I mean if I hit you in your face , you 're not going to say " oh , Sebastian , that was n't nice " . It 's a human reaction . Sometimes I feel it 's all a bit blown up and artificial @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ story out of nothing . So , it 's not personal , do n't take it personal . So I think we should cut it right there , so now if Lewis can answer . Q : I 'll just apologise for any colourful language in Sebastian 's answer there . Now over to you , Lewis . LH : Honestly , I do n't really remember it . I think maybe it was when we were talking afterwards ? Ultimately , I had a coming together with Max and it was an unnecessary collision . There needs to be a certain respect between drivers and ultimately ... maybe I need to go and watch the manoeuvre again , but it did n't feel like a respectful manoeuvre , but ultimately it was a silly manoeuvre for himself , because he did n't finish the race . And obviously he 's tending to make quite a few mistakes recently , so it was just unnecessary for him to do that . I ca n't really remember at what stage of the race it was or why we were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't really care to be honest . Q : ( Heikki Kulta -- Turun Sanomat ) Valtteri , after Australia , does this result put your championship fight in the balance or would you have needed that victory ? VB : It 's difficult to say about the balance in terms of championship , title fight because it 's only race two out of 21 so obviously , I got some points today but Sebastian , who 's leading the Championship definitely got more points . It 's early days -- but anyway a lot better than two weeks ago . And even today , the race pace we had was actually slightly better than we expected coming into today . So , that was positive . I think this weekend has really opened up our eyes in terms of how much we still have work to do with the car in certain conditions . It 's really fast -- but like yesterday we could spot some weaknesses of the car and even today . It 's been an important weekend . We need to make sure we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Q : ( Scott Mitchell -- Autosport ) A question for Sebastian . Do you think that the performance for this weekend is ... how much of it is down to improvements that you 've made with Ferrari and how much is it maybe not quite being at the same level as in Australia . SV : It 's a difficult one . I ca n't speak for them but I think it 's always a combination of things . You try to put so many things together and sometimes you succeed more than other times . I think probably the circuit came our way . I think mostly the fact I had a better feel with the car , we worked on the setup helped us to extract more . It was more consistent on one lap but also in the race . So , I felt just healthier and more in control . So , as I said , how much they struggled , I do n't know . I think they looked pretty handy at the end of the stints , at least , and in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ think overall it 's been close but obviously , it 's good to be just ahead . Q : ( Arrackal Alexander -- Gulf Auto Zone ) Congratulations on the win . My first question to Vettel is : what have you to say about the car you won with and going into Shanghai are you confident with this car . The second question is to Bottas , it is you had a problem coming in where you almost caught up with him and there was a lot of smoke coming out through the front . What exactly was that ? And did it have a problem . Did it have anything to do with being in second . And third one to Lewis Hamilton . Coming in from ninth and going all the way up to third congratulations -- but what happened to the car and what one gathers from your conference earlier there was some problem with communication . What did that have to do with just coming in third , and what are your plans going into Shanghai ? SV : You start , otherwise @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a long question . Communication , it was just the helmet radio so they could hear wind but they could n't hear my voice . Obviously , there 's turbulence in the car , that 's what they could hear rather than my voice . So , that 's an area we need to improve -- but it 's not always the case . Just must have been something busted this weekend . Yeah , luckily we go from here with good points still and a good finish . I 'm really , as I said , happy with third but going into Shanghai , it 's a good track for me in general . So , I 'm hoping to turn the tables a little bit that weekend -- but it 's going to be obviously hard . The Ferrari 's have shown incredible pace the last couple of races , so yeah ... Q : Seb , talking about going to Shanghai ... SV : Yeah , I mean , as I 've touched on many times this weekend , I had more confidence in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ how to explain the best way but if you have more confidence and the car 's responding to your input then ultimately you go faster because you know what to expect and you can anticipate and overall you are happier . I think that 's the main step that we did for this weekend , working for the setup . Now Shanghai 's a completely different course , with different conditions . Usually it 's quite a bit cooler there . So , we 'll see when we get there -- but yeah , it 's a tricky one to get everything right . The setup again will be crucial for us . It seems a bit more difficult to get into the window but if we do like this weekend , and we find the sweet spot , then I 'm pretty confident that we can do well there as well . Q : Valtteri ? VB : When you 're closing up , the car ahead , it was obviously going to be very close with Sebastian in the end . I was trying everything I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . And in the braking zones , when you get close you lose some downforce because of the turbulent air . It affects mainly the front end , so that 's why it 's a little easier to lock the front wheels under braking . So , that 's the smoke . But did n't really go wide in any corners , but it 's just when you 're pushing the limits , that can happen . Q : ( Luis Vasconcelos -- Formula Press ) Valtteri , your second stint was not very linear . Initially you gained 3.5s in the first ten laps but then on the next ten laps you lost four seconds and only by lap 44 you really started catching up . Were you trying to save tyres or you only reacted when it was clear he was not going to stop again ? VB : Initially I was trying to get a feel of the medium tyre which felt very good but suddenly it started to drop a little bit and knowing that I had to finish the race , at that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it a tiny bit easier , to kind of save for the end , but also I lost a lot of time with the backmarkers , I think more than Sebastian . I think for this track , the rule of blue flags seems like you need to get too close to get the blue flag switched on because you already lose a lot of time when you try to get there but I guess that 's the same for everyone . But yeah , in the end , tried to get everything out of the tyres and pretty much two laps to go I started to struggle with the tyres so yeah , long stint . Q : ( Livio Oricchio -- GloboEsporte.com ) Sebastian , at one moment in the race your lap times were very high , more than seven seconds slower than yesterday . Were you controlling the pace , knowing that you should be racing to the end and knowing also that both Mercedes drivers were on mediums and you were on soft ? SV : Yes , funny you mentioned that . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ somewhere mid-race that the lap times we were doing , if only now I could have one lap like qualifying the gap would be massive to Valtteri and I could have a breather , I could breathe again . But yeah , obviously when we 're racing we are on the same set of tyres , they 're not getting better . We were running down the fuel so you should get faster but obviously sliding more and more . You 're not able to push as hard as in qualifying , I think that 's where the gap is coming from plus I think everybody had to manage the race a little bit . We had a virtual safety car for two laps , two and a half , three laps , something like this , so you save a bit of fuel but we still had to do some fuel saving , so it slows you down again a little bit and you have to manage ( it ) . Obviously our plan was a bit different when we started , I lost a little bit at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in , and then , I think , I knew we did n't have the freedom any more to react so that 's the advantage if you are behind , you can wait and obviously Valtteri did that and they decided to go on a different strategy , trying to win the race so you ca n't blame them . But for us , the plan initially was a bit different but then our only chance really , as the tyres were holding on quite well , was to stay out and it just worked . I think we had nothing to lose . Obviously if we pitted again with five laps to go we finish third but equally I felt if we pitted 15 or 20 laps to go , it would be difficult to make progress because I guess the medium tyres were more consistent , then it would have been much harder to get past Lewis , initially , who was ahead , if we had a normal stop and then chase down Valtteri . So that 's what we did and obviously we responded well @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I 'm obviously extremely happy that we could still come out on top . Q : ( Sushma Athilat -- Radio Mirchi ) I just wanted to congratulate you . Do you know Bahrain really looks forward to Formula One every twelve months . I 'm sure every country is especially excited to receive you all but do you have a message for the people of Bahrain ? SV : Well , obviously now you 've had the Grand Prix for many years and I think especially switching to a night race in 2014 I think it just looks cool . You have the sparks coming out , it 's great . Obviously if you 're on the podium or on the in-lap or the parade lap , after the chequered flag you have the fireworks . Obviously I was lucky the last two years to come in first . It 's a great race , people are enjoying ... just outside the paddock , I think there 's quite a good vibe . There 's the go-kart track busy . Usually it 's a fun weekend and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coming . I think it would n't hurt if there were still more people , especially from outside , but for sure all the Bahraini people ... you have the posters everywhere hanging and the people are really proud and happy to have the Grand Prix , so it 's nice to be part of that . VB : Yeah , I was lucky this weekend to meet some local fans who had got access to the paddock as guests of our team , just by being very supportive . Our team picked up a few of them and it was really nice to meet and speak a little bit about the local culture but for me it 's always been a good place to come for racing and even some years for testing so always enjoy it . The sun is shining , people are friendly . For me the track has been good in the past so it 's a bonus as well . LH : I think they 've pretty much covered it . I said something on the podium . I love it here @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Mario Salvini -- La Gazzetta dello Sport ) Sebastian , I guess you know perfectly well when the last time a Ferrari driver won the first two events in a season and what happened at the end of that year ... SV : No . Last year we went to Australia , China and then here , right ? Well , I guess it was Michael then . Fernando , he won the first race , I remember , in 2010 . That 's so long ago . Well , look , we have a very very long season ahead of us . It 's clear that we need to improve , we have to improve our car , our package . I guess everybody 's trying to do the same so the competition is very high . Needless to say that Valtteri and Lewis are pushing very hard . Obviously , Kimi , alongside , is pushing incredibly hard . The two Red Bull guys with Max and Daniel are pushing hard . Then there 's a bit more of a gap but I think those three @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ other . Even if now , for us , the first two races went amazingly , for others maybe not so much , there 's still a long long way and a long season , a lot of races , a lot of things that can happen so it 's a bit pointless to try and look forward as I said . It will be important to improve and be quick everywhere you go . That helps . The quicker you are , the quicker your package is , the more you are one unit with your car , the happier you feel , the more you 're able to extract when it really matters . Q : ( Andrew Benson -- BBC Sport ) Seb , when did you decide that you had to switch to a one stop . Were you effectively forced into it and at what point did you make the call ? And also , where would you rate that win among your many ? SV : Well , fortunately I have a lot to chose from . I 'm not sure I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . If you compare Australia and here it 's a different race , needless to say . Obviously the way Australia happened ... it was quite intense the last stint in Australia with Lewis pushing from behind but I was a bit more comfortable there because I knew the track is more difficult to overtake ( on ) whereas here , I knew that if Valtteri gets close with the DRS he can really be a threat . My tyres were done , ten laps to go I think I went on the radio and said I have everything under control -- I had nothing under control . I was hoping that they tell Valtteri that Sebastian 's controlling the pace and tell him to turn the engine so that I can relax a bit but obviously that was n't the case , he was n't told . I 'm sure if I was on the radio saying that my tyres were done , then they would have told him ' come on now , keep pushing . ' I think he was pushing , nevertheless , but yeah @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ think I mentioned before the sad part is that obviously one of our mechanics got injured . I will go straight away to find out what 's going on and hopefully he 's in good hands and in good care and makes a speedy recovery . If that happens , you celebrate as a team but at the same time you look after each other . Hopefully it 's not too bad . As I said , hopefully he 's in good hands and gets the best care he can right now and then has not too long of a break because I know the guy and he loves racing so let 's see . Ah , the strategy , sorry , I forgot . They have different plans and when they told me the plan I first had to think what was that again , when we talked about it . It was n't the first or second option . I had to think a little bit but then I got it and I looked up on the tower and I saw Gasly was in P4 so I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nothing to lose and go for the one stop and try to make the tyres last but it was n't our intended strategy at first . When did they tell me ? I do n't know , probably something like twenty-something laps to go . With 15 laps to go I was still very comfortable and then there was a big step around ten laps to go where , the tyre just dropped off and the last five laps were really difficult . |

TWO iconic buildings which housed community groups and public events for decades were bulldozed last year . The demolitions of Formby Hall in Atherton and Lowton Civic Hall were greeted by residents with anger , disbelief and sadness . Following the loss of these popular hubs , questions remained as to how Wigan Council would address a point outlined in its 2013 Core Strategy development plan about replacing public facilities . One of the plan 's targets states " the loss of community facilities can be justified if it is replaced or demonstrated that it is not needed anymore . " When asked about the void of the two sites in relation to the Core Strategy , the local authority believe it has sufficiently addressed the issue . Kathryn Rees , assistant director for customer transformation at the council , said : " Through The Deal for Communities Investment Fund we have made significant investment into community 's right across the borough , including Atherton and Lowton , which have had an extremely positive impact on the people living in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Lane Community Centre and also St Mary 's Community Hall which offer varied activities each day of the week for everyone in the local community to enjoy . " Lowton Civic Hall was knocked down in November Penny McGinty , assistant director for corporate contracts and assets at the council , added : " Atherton Town Hall is currently undergoing refurbishment and is due to open around October this year . " A space in the building will be run by a community group as a caf ? and there will also be community rooms available for everyone to use . " Chairman of Atherton Residents Association Stuart Gerrard says the council needs to find a like-for-like replacement for Formby Hall , which used to regularly host large public events . He said : " The impact of not having Formby Hall it is making a big difference to Atherton . " Community groups and theatres are unable to operate which and they are essential to a community 's wellbeing . " Some things that are of value are not on the balance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ When we see the council buying The Galleries and preserving pubs around Wigan I wonder what Atherton has done to warrant such underfunding . " Atherton Cllr Karen Aldred added : " Any community groups that are interested in looking for space can contact the council to see what venues are available . " Myself and colleagues have worked with groups that have contacted us to look for suitable venues in the area . " Everyone was upset and disappointed that the owners of Formby Hall did not keep it open as many thought that would be the case . " In Lowton , ward councillors and the Lowton East Neighbourhood Development Forum group ( LENDF ) have met with Wigan Council to discuss plans to invest money into the restoration of Lowton St Mary 's Community Hall . Cllr James Grundy said : I think due credit should go to the council in working with us to find a remedy after the controversial loss of Lowton Civic Hall . " There is a long way to go on the project but our meeting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into another facility in the village . " This is a piece of good news that we can salvage out of something bad .

PLANS to create a holiday let in Alum Chine have come under fire from residents . Bournemouth council 's planning board is due next week to discuss the proposal for 19-21 Branksome Dene Road , an unusual horseshoe shaped building lined with garages , once home to Branksome Dene Garage . While it has no formal protection or heritage status , the building is thought to be at least older than the 1920s homes elsewhere in the road . The applicant wants to extend the home part of the property into the garages , and to create a separate holiday let in other garages . Council planning officers have recommended that the scheme be granted , however 20 objections have been submitted by neighbours . Amanda and Laurence Kampel of Branksome Dene Road said : " It may lead to increased traffic and further issues with parking on that part of the road , which already suffers from parking problems .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('Cavs coach Tyronn Lue' + 'tried to talk' + 'James' + 'out of playing'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the subject is attempting to prevent the object from performing the action described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. The verb 'talk' is classified under means of verbal persuasion, which is one of the categories of verbs that can appear in the V1 slot of the construction. The NP object 'James' is a causee who participates in the event described by 'playing'. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

CLEVELAND -- LeBron James capped his 15th regular season with yet another record . The Cleveland Cavaliers star played in his 82nd game Wednesday night against the New York Knicks , completing an end-to-end run that underscores the 33-year-old 's remarkable consistency . The four-time MVP had never played every game in a regular season as he typically sits out games at the end of the season to rest for the playoffs . Not this year . James ' previous high was 81 games in 2008-09 , when then-coach Mike Brown sat him for the Cavs ' regular-season finale . James never made playing every game a goal , but he has said he wants to break the mold for players of his age . Cavs coach Tyronn Lue said he tried to talk James out of playing , but relented . " He wants to play , " Lue said . " I mean , it 's hard to play 82 games . I was in the league 11 years . Never had a chance to get to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wants to play , and I guess in his 15th year to get to 82 , it really says a lot . It says a lot about him .

After James scored 10 points , extending his NBA record for scoring in double digits to 873 games , Lue sent in Jordan Clarkson for the three-time champion . James will finish the season leading the league in points and minutes played . He entered the finale averaging 27.7 points with career-highs in assists ( 9.2 ) and rebounds ( 8.7 ) . He 's not expected to be named MVP as Houston 's James Harden remains the favorite , but James remains the game 's unquestioned best all-around player . James will also lead the Cavs in total points , rebounds , assists , steals and blocks . Comments |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'get out of doing anything' lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and it does not clearly induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe avoiding an action without specifying a causee or means of prevention.

The consultation on a local street performance code of conduct , drafted by St Albans district council ( SADC ) , has now been circulated to businesses in the city centre . If the new rules are implemented , buskers will not be able to play music louder than just above ambient street noise , set up a pitch within 50 metres of another performer , sell merchandise , solicit contributions from passers-by , use amplification , or play " loud " instruments such as drums or trumpets . They must also take " regular breaks " to allow crowds to disperse and any buskers under 18 must be accompanied by an adult . The new measures are meant to protect businesses and residents in the centre from excessive noise and repetitive performances . Any agreed guidelines would not be legally binding - merely advisory . However , officers will report back to SADC on the success of the scheme and may consider creating enforceable bylaws . Liesl Adriaans is a musician from Aylesbury who travels to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ musician , I understand why they would implement these rules because obviously there are people living in and around the town centre and you do n't want to be disruptive as a performer , but at the same time I do think it 's very specific per act . " I know they are thinking about taking amplification away so you are performing acoustically , and the problem with that is even myself today , I have a little amp , but I can barely hear myself over the noise of the cars and the general hustle and bustle of it all . " She conceded that a louder act with horns needs to be aware and considerate . Adding : " At the end of the day , all of us gig , we all know the appropriate levels , we know what is disruptive and what is n't , so we should be able to use our own discretion . " Notably , there is already a bylaw regarding busking in St Albans , which states nobody can make " any noise which is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reasonable cause for annoyance to other persons in the vicinity " . The Keep Street Live Campaign is a movement to scrutinise changes to street performance law and to promote busking . A director of the campaign , Chester Bingley , said they have created a template code which could be presented to SADC for consideration . This will be discussed at its next general meeting . He applauded the council for removing a rule about buskers only playing for one hour , saying it showed an awareness of the buskers point of view . " The problem is that the code is addressing the instruments and amplification rather than where they are causing a nuisance . " It is banning those instruments and amplification on the basis of what it is rather than if it is causing complaints . A lot of quiet or small instruments use amps so they can be heard . " We have produced a code of conduct which uses a process of addressing problems as and when they arise , rather than setting arbitrary rules . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ never going to apply to all situations . " He used the example of a finger picked guitar , which could not be heard above street level noise and so would need to amplify . He believes most musicians playing loud instruments are reasonable and avoid playing for too long in one place .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'get out of doing anything' which lacks an NP object between the verb 'get' and 'out of'. Additionally, it does not clearly convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

The consultation on a local street performance code of conduct , drafted by St Albans district council ( SADC ) , has now been circulated to businesses in the city centre . If the new rules are implemented , buskers will not be able to play music louder than just above ambient street noise , set up a pitch within 50 metres of another performer , sell merchandise , solicit contributions from passers-by , use amplification , or play " loud " instruments such as drums or trumpets . They must also take " regular breaks " to allow crowds to disperse and any buskers under 18 must be accompanied by an adult . The new measures are meant to protect businesses and residents in the centre from excessive noise and repetitive performances . Any agreed guidelines would not be legally binding - merely advisory . However , officers will report back to SADC on the success of the scheme and may consider creating enforceable bylaws . Liesl Adriaans is a musician from Aylesbury who travels to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ musician , I understand why they would implement these rules because obviously there are people living in and around the town centre and you do n't want to be disruptive as a performer , but at the same time I do think it 's very specific per act . " I know they are thinking about taking amplification away so you are performing acoustically , and the problem with that is even myself today , I have a little amp , but I can barely hear myself over the noise of the cars and the general hustle and bustle of it all . " She conceded that a louder act with horns needs to be aware and considerate . Adding : " At the end of the day , all of us gig , we all know the appropriate levels , we know what is disruptive and what is n't , so we should be able to use our own discretion . " Notably , there is already a bylaw regarding busking in St Albans , which states nobody can make " any noise which is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reasonable cause for annoyance to other persons in the vicinity " . The Keep Street Live Campaign is a movement to scrutinise changes to street performance law and to promote busking . A director of the campaign , Chester Bingley , said they have created a template code which could be presented to SADC for consideration . This will be discussed at its next general meeting . He applauded the council for removing a rule about buskers only playing for one hour , saying it showed an awareness of the buskers point of view . " The problem is that the code is addressing the instruments and amplification rather than where they are causing a nuisance . " It is banning those instruments and amplification on the basis of what it is rather than if it is causing complaints . A lot of quiet or small instruments use amps so they can be heard . " We have produced a code of conduct which uses a process of addressing problems as and when they arise , rather than setting arbitrary rules . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ never going to apply to all situations . " He used the example of a finger picked guitar , which could not be heard above street level noise and so would need to amplify . He believes most musicians playing loud instruments are reasonable and avoid playing for too long in one place . Cllr Richard Curthoys is the chair of the SADC licensing and regulatory committee which is conducting the consultation . He defended the proposed rules : " It 's basically regarding amplifiers and encouraging quality buskers to come to the town .

Lily Hey and her family have been invited to attend the marriage of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle next month . Last updated : 13 April 2018 - 5.55pm A schoolgirl has been invited to the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in recognition of charity work in memory of her brother . Lily Hey , 11 , and her family from Nairn have raised tens of thousands of pounds for cancer and children 's charities since the death of eight-year-old Hamish from cancer last year . She has received an invite to the wedding day on May 19 along with her grandmother Liz Bow , 68 , after being nominated by the Lord-Lieutenant for Nairnshire . They will be among 1,200 members of the public invited into the grounds of Windsor Castle to watch the arrivals of the bride and groom and their guests at St George 's Chapel , and see the newlyweds start their carriage procession through Windsor . Lily has been fundraising in memory of her brother Hamish ( Susan Hey/PA ) Lily 's mother Susan and father Sam , both 39 , will accompany the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ particularly poignant as last year Mrs Hey announced she had been diagnosed with secondary , incurable , breast cancer following earlier treatment for the disease . Speaking of the invitation , she said : " It 's so lovely and it 's just so deserved , both for Lily and my mum . " Lily is so excited . When the invitation came ... it was so unbelievable that she took a wee while to register exactly what it meant . " It 's very special and very much an honour but certainly for Lily it 's very deserved she 's had an awful lot to deal with and still has an awful lot to deal with . " She 's been through more in her little life than most adults would ever go through in a lifetime . Equally her age is lovely for this because she is old enough to understand and to really enjoy and remember everything about this . " Hamish was just two-years-old when he was diagnosed with metastatic alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma , a rare and aggressive soft tissue cancer . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ age of seven , he was found to have an unrelated aggressive , inoperable tumour within his brainstem . Hamish Hey died in 2017 at the age of eight after a battle with cancer ( Susan Hey/PA ) The family set up the Team Hamish campaign following his death last February and are now fundraising to develop a special family space in their home town of Nairn in the Highlands in his memory . Mrs Hey said : " At the end of the day clearly we are still and always will be devastated and brokenhearted by what 's happened and nothing will repair that . " But at least we feel that out of something horrific we are hopefully managing to achieve something incredibly positive . " Everywhere you go , mention Hamish and people know who we 're talking about and his little face pops up all over the town and people very fondly talk about him still and I think always will . " He only had eight years but in those eight years he 's had a huge impact . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ can we so I 'm very proud of that aspect . " Obviously I 'd do anything to have him here and not be doing any of this but equally , bless him , he 's made a huge impact .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'Take the strain out of pruning', where 'pruning' is a gerund acting as the object of the preposition 'out of', not as part of a VP2[-ing] predicate with a causee. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Ruth Chapman is busy in her Wimbledon home , packing her bags for a holiday . One week in the Bahamas , and then New York . She visited Tanzania and Kenya at Christmas and has been spending time in Los Angeles . " We have also been taking little breaks , " she adds , modestly . The buoyant 56-year-old mother-of-three opened her first Matches Fashion boutique in 1987 with her now-husband Tom , and after switching the focus from bricks and mortar to e-commerce , banked ? 400m when they sold the company last September . This is why , for the first time in 30 years , the Chapmans can take a proper break . ( Although they are still company advisers and retain a substantial stake in the operation . ) Dealing in high-end designer fashion , Matches Fashion caters for a discerning clientele of men and women . Without mentioning names , Chapman describes last minute deliveries to red carpet events -- " every day " , and flying entire wardrobes out to hotels in Hong Kong because luggage has been lost -- " all the time " . While @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an astonishing 35pc of sales come from just 3pc of the customer base . Matches Fashion prides itself on the in-store experience , with three boutiques in London , as well as a six-floor Marylebone town house for bespoke private shopping , but the website is where over 90pc of sales are made . While the clothes are luxurious , the beginnings of Matches Fashion were not . " Tom was 20 when he had a terrible car accident , " says Chapman . " He was really unwell for a while , unable to work and just at home twiddling his thumbs recuperating . Matches was born of evenings spent thinking about what happens next and what we should do moving forward . " Within a year , Matches Fashion opened its first boutique in Wimbledon , but Chapman says the funding landscape has changed dramatically since then . " It was an easier time in lots of ways to borrow money . Compared to what it takes now , the amounts we were looking at were tiny . " The Telegraph 's Women Mean Business campaign @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to highlight the funding gap between male and female entrepreneurs . Already , the Treasury has launched a review and Theresa May has set up a Downing Street committee to look at how government decisions are affecting women in business . Now a global brand , Chapman smiles as she recalls days spent painting the walls of her first store . " Initially , the space that we rented was for peanuts and we painted it ourselves . We had a really nice chest of drawers in there , and a sofa . Thinking back , Tom 's parents actually donated the sofa , " she says , laughing . " We did the whole thing ourselves . It was very much cobbled together , and definitely would n't stand up to today 's standards . Wimbledon back then was n't so busy , so we learnt to look after our customers very well . " You could have only five people come in the store all day , but we tried to make them feel great and make it a fabulous experience for them . " In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the names , emails and addresses of all the customers at 14 Matches Fashion stores had been collected . When the internet revolution came around , Matches was in pole position to capitalise . " We had a very international customer base that was coming to us from Australia , Germany , Hong Kong , Canada , the US , and they were saying ' we should be able to shop with you all the time ' . Going online in 2007 did n't feel like a big strategic move , it was just something we felt we should do . We literally uploaded our entire inventory on the internet , and it was as simple as that . " Next came what Chapman calls the seismic moment that changed the business forever . " Within days , we had sold out of everything . I said to Tom : ' uh oh . We 're going to need more stock . ' " The first online sale that sticks in Chapman 's mind is a Stella McCartney kitten heel . Now , it 's harder for her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 176 countries around the world , and over 50 million visitors to the site each year . Technology is an important area . Matches Fashion published a gender pay gap of 27pc this month , and although the top quartile is split evenly between men and women , the company says that a large part of the reason for the gap is because of technology roles . In a statement , they said : " A large proportion of our employees in specialised roles ( i.e. technology ) , are male . This has the effect of pushing up the pay of the average male employee . Most of our junior and operational roles are occupied by women . This has the effect of pushing down the pay of the average female employee . " " Getting women into tech starts young , " says Chapman . " But even people who are career changers can do it too -- there are so many courses and they have to get out there and do it . " With technology driving the business , after 2007 , Matches Fashion @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is when finance became problematic . " In terms of cash flow , it became really difficult , because funding an inventory like that when you 're growing so fast is something banks did n't want to happen . They said : ' You 're over-trading , you need to rein it in . ' Tom and I could n't believe it , but we saw the opportunity and that 's where the entrepreneurial spirit kicked in . When people see opportunity and do n't want to be reined in , that 's when you should go for it . " In 2012 , the Chapmans raised the money another way . Venture capitalists , SEC and Highland Capital Europe pumped in ? 32m . " That 's the point at which we became much more strategic about how we were going to grow the business . We started as little shopkeepers , turned that into a chain and then grew it into an online business , so the landscape was always changing . " One thing that never changed was Ruth 's husband Tom . Evident in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , first as a couple and then as business partners . She calls him " great " " inspirational " and " supersonic " . " A huge part of my success is Tom . He has been my mentor and inspiration . Whenever I have lacked confidence or inspiration he has been there saying ' I know you can do it ' . " " The work that #MeToo and #TimesUp do is fantastic and there are so many men that need to be called out on their behaviour , and so much of the system needs to be changed . " But there are also so many good men out there who want it to change and Tom is a huge champion of women in the workplace . " I simply could n't have done this without him , " adds Chapman with genuine warmth . Does being married to your business partner bring its difficulties ? " It 's an interesting dynamic , " Chapman says delicately . " I would be lying if I told you it had n't been tense at times , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tell him . But when that 's in a room with eight other people , you have to be really careful how you do that . " But any tensions we had were good ones , and we have always tried to make the right decisions for the business . " Chapman tried to separate home and work lives , but admits it did n't always work . " We very much tried to not bring it to the dinner table as the kids grew up . Inevitably it slips in a little bit and that 's not always healthy , but it 's interesting now that our children have sort of learnt about retail and fashion sort of by osmosis and they understand so much . " Of her three children , her son , aged 25 and her eldest daughter , 23 , have both worked on the shop floor . " It teaches you so much about how customer facing businesses work . It is the best way to learn , " she says . Her youngest daughter , 19 , has her heart set @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ creative streak . Being her own boss gave Chapman the freedom to get stuck into motherhood . " I was so anxious never to miss a netball match or a rugby match , and found that the majority of mothers watching were working mums . We made huge sacrifices to be there , but I have always tried to put family first . " Next month , Chapman will be taking the stage by herself at the Veuve Clicquot Business Woman of the year awards , where she is nominated for the top prize . " It 's a very exciting award particularly because of Madame Clicquot . She was a creative and that 's what I like . What we are seeing now is that there are lots of creative women out there who realise they do n't necessarily have to be employed -- they can take their creative skills and turn that into a business . " I would describe myself as , firstly , a creative person and , secondly , a business woman , and that 's the message I really want to get @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you are a creative or artistic person but that is largely what is going to be meaningful in business in the next few decades .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'makes a living out of scoring goals and winning trophies' involves an NP object ('a living') that does not function as a causee, and there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the means by which the subject earns a living, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The 10-year-old Griff would be wetting himself at the prospect of what prospect the now 27-year-old has laid out in front of him . Raised on stories of Hibee heroes with Saturdays spent watching his idols at Easter Road , the man who now makes a living out of scoring goals and winning trophies is one game away from doing so at the ground he longed to do so as a boy . The Parkhead club are just one victory away from turning this season 's single into a double as Neil Lennon 's men stand between them and a seventh Premiership crown on the bounce . For Griffiths , standing at the end of a season clutching a medal is nothing new to him - he 's won eight of them since joining Celtic back in 2014 . But he admits that it will be a surreal experience if he clinches his ninth on the hallowed turf at Easter Road this Saturday afternoon . " I would n't say that it 'll be special -- it would be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ striker , who could seal a memorable day with reaching 100 goals for the Parkhead club if he grabs a brace against his old team . " But my job is to go out there and get the victory for Celtic and wrap up the championship . Obviously , I grew up as a Hibs fan but Celtic pay my wages now and I need to help us achieve the three points we need . " The only way I can do that is by putting the ball in the back of the net . I used to dream about winning the league at Easter Road but maybe not quite like this -- it 's all swings and roundabouts . " So it will be weird going there to try and secure the title against my boyhood heroes but that 's how it 's turned out and I just need to concentrate on that . Hopefully , I can reach 100 goals for Celtic there at the same time -- I 'm only two away so , assuming I get some more minutes on the pitch , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is well founded given the afternoon he and his team-mates enjoyed at Hampden on Sunday afternoon . In the 4-0 Scottish Cup semi-final against Rangers , Brendan Rodgers ' team were untouchable as they cruised into next month 's final with Motherwell , turning in a performance which only underlined that Celtic 's dominance domestically shows no signs of being eroded away . Certainly not if Rangers ' showing is anything to go by . Much was made of the fact players in the Ibrox dressing room cheered when the draw was made for the last four of the cup , such was the appetite for the chance to prove they were able to topple Celtic . It is a notion which Griffiths , who was unlucky not to add to Celtic 's tally when he came on from the bench , unsurprisingly dismissed . " I could have had a goal myself near the end if Kieran had spotted me but he was trying to pick out Scott Sinclair instead . We had so much room in the box that it was 4-0 going on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Is the gap getting bigger ? When we bring our A game then nobody in Scotland can touch us . You saw that on Sunday . That was a game that they cheered for but you should be careful what you wish for in case it comes back to bite you on the arse . " As to how the manner of that defeat will affect them , I do n't see how they can be happy after that . They 'll need to go back to the drawing board to find out where they 've gone wrong . " From start to finish , we dominated the game in every aspect . Their manager might have said before the tie that the gap between us was closing but those are his words .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'opt out of receiving plastic cutlery' involves an NP ('plastic cutlery') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and it does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not yield a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It mentions 'an opt out of receiving plastic cutlery', which involves a noun phrase ('an opt out') followed by a prepositional phrase ('of receiving plastic cutlery'), but lacks the necessary verb (V1) and object (NP object) structure. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'pricing' is the V1, 'many of them' is the NP object, and 'learning an instrument entirely' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also induces a prevention interpretation, as it suggests that the pricing prevents many of them from learning an instrument entirely. The NP object 'many of them' functions as a causee, participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Parents fear the postcode lottery in musical instrument tuition will stifle the promise of a generation . When father of two Dave Gornall was told that his local council planned to axe lessons for any children learning a string or percussion instrument , his heart sank . His son , Matthew , 14 , had just opted to study music as one of his National Five exams -- with the violin as his main instrument . " He has been playing the violin since P5 and is now in S3 , " says Gornall , from Whitburn . " Theoretically , his tuition will cease after the summer and he will not be able to progress with the violin , while the guy next to him in class , who plays the trumpet , will still be having lessons . It puts him at a disadvantage . " West Lothian 's proposal to stop providing school tuition for all string and percussion instruments is the first of its kind in Scotland . A total of 22 councils now bill parents for musical instrument @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Inverclyde to ? 318 in the Highlands , while a few charge a fee for the annual hire of instruments . West Lothian , claims it has no other choice than to cut string and percussion provision if other instruments are to be saved . However , it is not the only council to spark anger among families and music teachers . Clackmannanshire has recently revealed plans to more than double the cost of its instrument lessons held in schools from next year -- meaning that children will pay more for a group lesson than they would be charged by a private teacher for individual tuition . Just one local authority -- Renfrewshire , where tuition is still free -- increased its annual spend on its music services last year , by ? 200,000 . The state of music tuition in Scotland has attracted criticism from international musicians -- with one esteemed Swedish conductor blasting the cuts as " cynical " -- while other Scots stars , including violinist Nicola Benedetti and composer James MacMillan , have joined forces to back campaigns to save lessons . Gornall @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ leave school in the summer and also plays the violin , has benefitted from years performing in local orchestras , but her brother will no longer have the same opportunity . " He plays in the Bathgate Junior Strings and Linlithgow Symphonic , but they are both run by the council tutors , who will no longer be in place , so they are to be closed down , " says Gornall . " The instrument tuition is one thing , but it is playing in the orchestras , where they are all together , making that big noise , where he really gets the enjoyment . Even if he continues learning the violin privately , there will be no ensemble for him to take part in . " John Wallace , chair of the Scottish Government 's Music Education Partnership Group and the former head of the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland , is behind a campaign to end the erosion of music tuition across Scotland . He says the number of instrumental music teachers employed by councils in Scotland has dropped from around 1,150 to 640 over @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Lothian alone will see between 600 and 800 fewer children taking instrumental lessons in the next academic year . " It is a little bit of a lottery at the moment , " he says . " If the rate of the actual instrument teaching keeps on eroding at the current rate , we wo n't have many left in a few years . " The initiative , " Develop not Dismantle " , has been backed by a number of high- profile names , including singer Paolo Nutini and Patrick Doyle , the Oscar-nominated composer who wrote the score for Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire . A Scotland on Sunday campaign in 2012 , Let The Children Play , lobbied for free instrumental tuition in schools . Then , the highest cost for tuition was ? 340 a year -- charged by Aberdeen , which has kept its fees static for the past six years . Now in Clackmannanshire , parents are reeling at a new pricing policy which will see the cost of lessons more than double from the new school year in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a budget meeting in March , are to increase the annual cost of lessons from ? 258.40 to ? 524 . This works out at around ? 17.50 per lesson , meaning that the cost of a 30-minute group class -- where children can share a teacher with three or four other young musicians -- now costs more per head than a private lesson of the same length . Even children from low income families -- who are entitled to reduced fees -- will be expected to pay a rate of ? 117 a year , pricing many of them out of learning an instrument entirely . Andrea McLaren , whose ten-year-old son , George , has been playing the clarinet for three years , while his brother , Sam , began learning the trombone at the beginning of this school year , says the decision will have a catastrophic effect on musical provision in the area . She plans to keep her children in the school lessons for the meantime , in a bid to help prop up the system -- and the infrastructure of orchestras and bands @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ system , my tuition bill will be more than ? 1,000 annually . I consider myself fortunate to be able to afford this , however , Clackmannanshire is not an affluent area and many other families will not be able to justify this kind of expense , especially in the early stages when children are still exploring their strengths and weaknesses . " It will not take long for the effects of children dropping out due to financial strains to show on the council 's balance sheet and provision will again be up on the list to be cut . In a few short years will music have disappeared from the curriculum in Clackmannanshire ? " The furore over instrumental tuition cuts comes as Scotland 's biggest teaching union this week warned that state education in Scotland is no longer free , with many pupils " missing out " on key choices because of the costs they face in subjects such as home economics , art and design and technical studies -- as well as in music . The EIS said charging parents for course materials , equipment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for all " in Scotland 's schools . Liz Smith , Scottish Conservative shadow education secretary , says that the party is soon to unveil " new measures " which she said would assist the funding of music tuition . " Meantime , we encourage all councils to follow the lead of those councils which have , despite the financial pressures , ensured that all pupils from low income backgrounds get bursary support for music tuition fees , " she says . " Music is a very important part of any school curriculum and it is deeply disappointing to see some aspects of its provision being cut as a result of financial pressures faced by local authorities . " The Scottish Government points to its ? 109 million investment over the past decade in the Youth Music Initiative ( YMI ) , which allows all children to experience learning an instrument for a year -- a total of 12 hours of tuition . The scheme was created to give all children a chance to decide whether learning an instrument is for them , before joining regular instrumental lessons @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ benefit to young people and the Scottish Government is actively providing leadership to encourage participation in music , " a spokeswoman says . " The YMI has made a huge impact , helping young people in all 32 local authorities access music-making opportunities and helping to ensure every pupil is offered a year 's free music tuition by the end of primary school . " Campaigner Ralph Riddiough , from Ayr , who plays in local brass ensembles and has three children who learn various instruments at school , says the government 's investment , alongside other centrally funded projects , is not enough . Ironically , some campaigners believe it is the centrally funded projects , flagships of the Scottish Government , which are detracting from the basic music tuition for youngsters from ordinary backgrounds . El Sistema , originally a Venezuelan initiative which works to get youngsters from deprived areas into an intensive music programme , is lauded across Scotland , with around 2,000 young participants , but Riddiough believes that children in other areas would miss out without proper school music provision . In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Noise has run for nine years , inspectors last year found that the scheme increased children 's self-esteem , confidence and teamwork . But it has limited reach , meaning that children who are deemed to live in less impoverished areas -- who may themselves still not be able to afford tuition -- are left without affordable exposure to musical instruments . " El Sistema is a social regeneration programme that works , but bear in mind if you are a child in any other area of Stirling who wants instruction you have to pay , " says Riddiough . " The challenge is to get the message through to the Scottish Government about the educational aspect of musical instrument tuition . It is so powerful in closing the attainment gap . " " I am a great supporter of the YMI , " he says . " But it is one thing to give children a taster , a chance to decide they want to learn an instrument , then put them into the system -- but it wo n't work if there is not going to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ afoot in Midlothian mean that the tuition fees for those studying for Highers and other qualifications in music will have to be met by the school out of its own budget . Campaigners believe the council has found a loophole to get around Scottish Government rules that students taking music for a Scottish Qualifications Authority ( SQA ) exam such as a National 5 or Higher , should not be charged for instrument lessons . " That is not going to make music a very attractive option for headteachers , " Richardson says . " I can see a situation where music departments will just say that students can only use ' classroom instruments ' eg keyboard or voice for their SQA exams . If schools go down that route , where will our school bands and ensembles be ? They are not going to exist any more . " Last week , campaigners celebrated a minor victory . West Lothian Council 's decision has been put on hold after Scotland 's Children 's Commissioner demanded that the local authority hold a " meaningful consultation " on the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a Children 's Rights Impact Assessment . The council argues that instrumental music is not a statutory service and points out that it is one of " very few " local authorities in Scotland which still offer free instrumental music tuition . The decision is a stay of execution , but does not mean the plans will be scrapped for good . The proposal remains one of four options set to be put forward to users of the service before the end of May , with other options ranging from cutting some brass tuition to retain a " some level " of strings , and charging for all lessons . A decision will be made by the beginning of the next school year . There is no doubt that there is widespread public support for music tuition . In Edinburgh last year , proposals to carve up the renowned City of Edinburgh Music School at Flora Stevenson and Broughton High schools in a bid to save ? 383,000 were reversed after a backlash which garnered support from the likes of Garbage lead singer Shirley Manson and jazz @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ several high-profile musicians alarmed at recent retrenchments . " It is odd that money is being found for the strangest things in educational budgets at the same time as catastrophic cuts are taking place in music provision and tuition , " he says , referring to schools ' acquisition of tech equipment such as virtual reality goggles . " Philistinism and prejudice are the main problems here . We make powerful arguments over and over again that music should be one of the basics , but it 's hard getting through the tough exteriors of some who do n't want to hear . " Jim Prime , keyboard player from Scots band Deacon Blue , who now teaches at the University of the West of Scotland , where he runs the Commercial Music course and also works on community music projects , condemns instrumental cuts as " arrogant " . " To abandon tuition in place of more ' academic ' subjects is not only folly but shortsighted and frankly arrogant , " he says . " I might remind them that maths and music were taught @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ long been ignored . " As well as being a famous musician , my role is to support not just the ? survival of music tuition at an early stage but to educate people on the importance of the arts within societal fabric . It brings a spiritual dimension to children 's lives and thus should be protected and guarded as having paramount importance for those children 's future . " The news has even sparked criticism from musicians living abroad -- most notably in Scandinavian countries , which are often cited as potential role models for Scotland . Swedish trombone virtuoso and composer Christian Lindberg says that his country 's free music tuition programme has led to the country becoming the third largest exporter of music in the world . " I can not think of anything more cynical than what I hear from Scotland about cutting funds for musical lessons , " he says . " Without Sweden 's system of " Kommunala Musikskolan " , I would never have had contact with a musical instrument and therefore never even become a musician and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't take this obvious right away from your children . You will pay for it later . " |

HISTORIANS , archaeologists and writers have gathered to applaud Andy Johnson , retiring this month from Logaston Press , the Herefordshire publishing house he founded more than 30 years ago . Thanks to his efforts , the history , archaeology , architecture and characters of the county have been preserved on the printed page . A total of 340 books have come from the small Almeley enterprise since 1985 , some covering Shropshire , the Welsh Marches and Worcestershire and 100 titles are currently in print . The last to roll off the presses is a reprint of Ella Mary Leather 's revered The Folklore of Herefordshire , first produced in 1912 . But Logaston Press will continue , under the stewardship of Richard and Su Wheeler , and both joined an illustrious collection of the county 's chroniclers at a tea party held at the New Strand , Eardisley , to mark Andy and his wife , Karen 's retirement . The Dean of Hereford , the Very Rev Michael Tavinor was there , as were two former county archaeologists , Dr Ron Shoesmith @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's senior archivist Rhys Griffith and published authors from Logaston Press 's canon included Heather Hurley , John and Sarah Zaluckyj , Bill Laws , Roger Kite , Duncan James and Tony Hobbs . Celebrated novelist , Phil Rickman was also there , with his wife , Carol and their affable Airedale , Fergus . Fittingly , Andy and Karen have added a reprint of Mrs Leather 's much-thumbed collection of folklore and songs as their swansong , as well as former headmaster Dr Howard Tomlinson 's weighty book cataloguing 800 years of Hereford Cathedral School 's history . Logaston Press 's first book , Walks and More , published in 1985 was driven by Andy 's enthusiasm to find out more about Herefordshire . Karen explained how her husband came to the county in hopes of fulfilling a childhood ambition to be a farmer . Instead , he spent the winter of 1984 " huddled by the fire in his cold cottage " writing ' Walks and More ' , a book vigorously researched by the author and his dog . " It took a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " said Karen . " It was always meant to be a one-book enterprise . " Logaston Press really invented itself , " she explained . " Almost before he knew it , it was a publishing house . " His dealings with authors has always been firm and professional , each subject to " forensic interrogation " , she said . " It was created out of nothing but has gone from strength to strength . " Both Andy and Karen felt it was " in safe hands " under the new owners . Andy said it had been a great pleasure to run Logaston Press . " We 've published really good quality information in an accessible way and at a price that was not going to put people off . " The transition of caretaking from Johnsons to Wheelers has taken three years , he said . Richard , a Hereford GP 's son and Su , who was brought up in Eardisley , thanked the Johnsons for handing Logaston Press to them . The couple , who have three children , were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by wheelbarrow as part of the changeover . " It has been fairly hectic in the last few weeks , " said Richard . " We wanted to celebrate Andy 's wonderful achievements and wish him and Karen all the best for the future .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('I'm trying to talk my sons out of going'). It involves an animate NP subject ('I') performing the action denoted by the V1 predicate ('talk') and an NP object ('my sons') functioning as a causee, inducing a prevention interpretation (preventing the sons from going). This aligns with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and the phrase 'out of drumming' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a career choice, which is unrelated to the construction's semantic requirements.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a realization about making a career from drumming, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('it's going to rule them out of appearing in this Avengers movie'). It also induces a prevention interpretation, where the status quo prevents Scott, Hope, and Hank from appearing in the Avengers movie. The verb 'rule' can be classified under 'By means of exerting force or pressure', fitting one of the categories of verbs that appear in the V1 slot of the construction. The NP object 'them' functions as a causee, participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'appearing in this Avengers movie'. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Infinity War is just days away , but with 18 movies leading up to it , you could be forgiven for struggling to remember exactly who 's where and what their relationship is to everyone else . If you 're finding it hard to remember who 's got an Infinity Stone , who 's retired , and who 's got a score to settle with whom , well -- we 've got you covered . Spoilers follow , as you might expect , for ten years ' worth of Marvel movies ... Following the team 's schism of Civil War , Tony Stark is currently the leader ( or , at the very least , sponsor ) of what 's left of the Avengers , who remain based in their upstate facility after moving out of Stark Tower . When we last saw him ( in Spider-Man Homecoming ) it was heavily implied that he would be proposing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it 's not every girl 's dream proposal , but by this point you have to assume Pepper 's into it otherwise she 'd be gone . Will we get the first Avengers wedding as part of Infinity War ? It 's not entirely out of the question , but it 's probably more likely to happen in Avengers 4 once things calm down a little . Regardless , Infinity War might give us Tony Stark as we 've never seen him : a man putting more than just himself on the line . The God of Thunder may have survived Ragnarok , even though his father , sister , hammer , right eye , home planet and all of his childhood besties did n't - but that just means Thor too has something to fight for . After all , he 's the King of What Remains Of Asgard , and you can be damn sure he 's not going to give that up easily . Unfortunately , the Asgardians were the known keepers of at least one Infinity Stone , and that essentially @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ show up . Which is probably what we saw happening in the post-credits scene of Thor : Ragnarok . If Thor is about to learn anything , it 's that no situation is ever so bad that it ca n't get worse . We can only imagine he 's going to have a score to settle with Thanos fairly soon ... Looking forward to : STORMBREAKER . The hammer fit for a horse . Speaking of Infinity Stones , it was suggested in Thor : Ragnarok that Loki was about to reunite himself with his old friend , the Tesseract . However , if you cast you mind way , wayyy back to 2012 , you 'll remember that it was Thanos who originally gave Loki the Mind Gem to attack the Avengers . And what did he do ? He let it get turned into Paul Bettany . Thanos may be a fan of Master and Commander , but he can not abide Wimbledon , so when the guy with the big purple head gets face to face with Loki , there will be debts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if you promise Thanos two Infinity Stones for the price of one , it 's going to take a little more than " I faked my own death for several years " to explain why you have n't delivered . Looking forward to : Seeing how -- or even if -- Loki can talk his way out of the clutches of Thanos . Steve Rogers might have given up the shield and quit being Captain America , but he is still Captain of our hearts . Still , when he is n't dragging men everywhere a few notches across the Kinsey scale , Steve is presumably leading a team of secret Avengers , which I believe constitutes some of the previous Avengers with new haircuts . So he 's got a beard , Black Widow has blonde hair , and presumably Falcon has a fauxhawk . But for the most part , Steve is going to be laying low and waiting for a phonecall from Tony Stark that 's almost certainly not coming . But he 's got unfinished business in Wakanda : his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ You do n't have to have seen the trailer to know where Steve 's going next . Looking forward to : Get this man a shave . You 've killed your dad and watched your other dad die . What next , Peter Quill ? Well , several years of dicking around , according to the established MCU timeline which places Guardians 2 just six months after Guardians 1 , in 2016 , and Infinity War sometime after 2020 thanks to the chronology clusterflip that was Spider-Man Homecoming . But at least that explains how Baby Groot is now Teen Groot . Again , anyone who 's seen the trailer knows that Thor 's going to be hooking up with the Guardians at some point , and that 'll explain how they get to Earth . What it is n't going to explain is whether Gamora , the daughter of Thanos , is going to be keen on a family reunion . I would bet that she is n't . And probably Mantis , Drax and Rocket will also be there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ prison by Steve Rogers , Scott Lang is no stranger to being on the lam . Luckily , his ability to become microscopic means he 's well-equipped for it . Interestingly , Ant-Man ( and the Wasp ) have n't show up in any of the Infinity War promo material so they 're probably not even in the film . This does make some kind of sense -- they 've got their own film out just weeks afterwards as part of Marvel 's plan to completely dominate an entire six month block of 2017 . Still , there 's a good chance that whatever the status quo is with Scott , Hope and Hank following Civil War , it 's going to rule them out of appearing in this Avengers movie .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('it's going to rule them out of appearing in this Avengers movie'). It also induces a prevention interpretation, where the status quo prevents Scott, Hope, and Hank from appearing in the Avengers movie. The verb 'rule' fits into the category of exerting force or pressure, and the NP object 'them' functions as a causee. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Infinity War is just days away , but with 18 movies leading up to it , you could be forgiven for struggling to remember exactly who 's where and what their relationship is to everyone else . If you 're finding it hard to remember who 's got an Infinity Stone , who 's retired , and who 's got a score to settle with whom , well -- we 've got you covered . Spoilers follow , as you might expect , for ten years ' worth of Marvel movies ... Following the team 's schism of Civil War , Tony Stark is currently the leader ( or , at the very least , sponsor ) of what 's left of the Avengers , who remain based in their upstate facility after moving out of Stark Tower . When we last saw him ( in Spider-Man Homecoming ) it was heavily implied that he would be proposing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it 's not every girl 's dream proposal , but by this point you have to assume Pepper 's into it otherwise she 'd be gone . Will we get the first Avengers wedding as part of Infinity War ? It 's not entirely out of the question , but it 's probably more likely to happen in Avengers 4 once things calm down a little . Regardless , Infinity War might give us Tony Stark as we 've never seen him : a man putting more than just himself on the line . The God of Thunder may have survived Ragnarok , even though his father , sister , hammer , right eye , home planet and all of his childhood besties did n't - but that just means Thor too has something to fight for . After all , he 's the King of What Remains Of Asgard , and you can be damn sure he 's not going to give that up easily . Unfortunately , the Asgardians were the known keepers of at least one Infinity Stone , and that essentially @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ show up . Which is probably what we saw happening in the post-credits scene of Thor : Ragnarok . If Thor is about to learn anything , it 's that no situation is ever so bad that it ca n't get worse . We can only imagine he 's going to have a score to settle with Thanos fairly soon ... Looking forward to : STORMBREAKER . The hammer fit for a horse . Speaking of Infinity Stones , it was suggested in Thor : Ragnarok that Loki was about to reunite himself with his old friend , the Tesseract . However , if you cast you mind way , wayyy back to 2012 , you 'll remember that it was Thanos who originally gave Loki the Mind Gem to attack the Avengers . And what did he do ? He let it get turned into Paul Bettany . Thanos may be a fan of Master and Commander , but he can not abide Wimbledon , so when the guy with the big purple head gets face to face with Loki , there will be debts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if you promise Thanos two Infinity Stones for the price of one , it 's going to take a little more than " I faked my own death for several years " to explain why you have n't delivered . Looking forward to : Seeing how -- or even if -- Loki can talk his way out of the clutches of Thanos . Steve Rogers might have given up the shield and quit being Captain America , but he is still Captain of our hearts . Still , when he is n't dragging men everywhere a few notches across the Kinsey scale , Steve is presumably leading a team of secret Avengers , which I believe constitutes some of the previous Avengers with new haircuts . So he 's got a beard , Black Widow has blonde hair , and presumably Falcon has a fauxhawk . But for the most part , Steve is going to be laying low and waiting for a phonecall from Tony Stark that 's almost certainly not coming . But he 's got unfinished business in Wakanda : his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ You do n't have to have seen the trailer to know where Steve 's going next . Looking forward to : Get this man a shave . You 've killed your dad and watched your other dad die . What next , Peter Quill ? Well , several years of dicking around , according to the established MCU timeline which places Guardians 2 just six months after Guardians 1 , in 2016 , and Infinity War sometime after 2020 thanks to the chronology clusterflip that was Spider-Man Homecoming . But at least that explains how Baby Groot is now Teen Groot . Again , anyone who 's seen the trailer knows that Thor 's going to be hooking up with the Guardians at some point , and that 'll explain how they get to Earth . What it is n't going to explain is whether Gamora , the daughter of Thanos , is going to be keen on a family reunion . I would bet that she is n't . And probably Mantis , Drax and Rocket will also be there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ prison by Steve Rogers , Scott Lang is no stranger to being on the lam . Luckily , his ability to become microscopic means he 's well-equipped for it . Interestingly , Ant-Man ( and the Wasp ) have n't show up in any of the Infinity War promo material so they 're probably not even in the film . This does make some kind of sense -- they 've got their own film out just weeks afterwards as part of Marvel 's plan to completely dominate an entire six month block of 2017 . Still , there 's a good chance that whatever the status quo is with Scott , Hope and Hank following Civil War , it 's going to rule them out of appearing in this Avengers movie . But will their film be set before or after this one ? Now that 's an interesting question ... Looking forward to : Being proven wrong .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'get out of something they do n't want to engage with' involves an NP ('something they do n't want to engage with') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Families find it difficult because they are not getting the correct information from the services that are supposed to be giving it to them in the first instance and then they do n't know where else to go . The issues continue when they eventually find out about co-ordinated support plans because they are often told by councils that they do n't need them when without them they could be missing out on the appropriate support . There is a Catch 22 situation which crops up all the time which is that children who we believe require a CSP and who are getting input from a range of other services such as health or social work can not get a plan because the support is not long term enough under the CSP criteria . These plans are not even spoken about now in conversations with councils about ASN pupils and I think it is an approach by councils so they are not bound to the support and therefore can not be held accountable . Instead we are seeing the use of things like wellbeing action plans , but these are not backed up in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ provide the support there is no comeback , but we see that as a failure on the part of the councils to provide the support that is required . If a child is struggling in the classroom and needs extra support what tends to happen is that schools ask if the child can be put on a part-time timetable . That is basically because the schools can not cope because they have classes full of other pupils and other parents may be complaining . The parent does n't know whether that is a good thing or not , but there is a concern that it send the wrong message to the child that if they lash out they get sent home and so they can use it as a mechanism to get out of something they do n't want to engage with or if they feel they ca n't cope . That appeases other parents and means the school does n't have to utilise resources that they would otherwise need to find to make sure the child was properly supported . What we are finding @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are doing this without following the correct processes and many parents are agreeing to it because they want their child to be safe . Overall the system is very complicated and at the start of the process parents have no idea what to do . They see the power of the education system and may be intimidated because of their own experiences at school so it is about ensuring parents know their rights as well as making it simpler for people to get the support their children need .

Accusing the republican party of leaking confidential papers in the aftermath of a Valentine 's Day talks bust-up , Mrs Foster claimed Sinn Fein 's behaviour was unlike anything she had ever witnessed in her political career . In a stinging attack against her erstwhile partners-in-government , the former Stormont first minister said Sinn Fein negotiators now needed to prove they could be trusted again . " They have behaved in an incredibly bad way , therefore the building up of trust is going to take a long time and it is going to take actions , " she said . " We have heard a lot from Sinn Fein in relation to reaching out , it 's about time that they recognised the role they had in relation to the breakdown and in relation to the shattering of trust within the unionist community .

Accusing the republican party of leaking confidential papers in the aftermath of a Valentine 's Day talks bust-up , Mrs Foster claimed Sinn Fein 's behaviour was unlike anything she had ever witnessed in her political career . In a stinging attack against her erstwhile partners-in-government , the former Stormont first minister said Sinn Fein negotiators now needed to prove they could be trusted again . " They have behaved in an incredibly bad way , therefore the building up of trust is going to take a long time and it is going to take actions , " she said . " We have heard a lot from Sinn Fein in relation to reaching out , it 's about time that they recognised the role they had in relation to the breakdown and in relation to the shattering of trust within the unionist community .

Reasoning

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It uses the intransitive verb 'come' with no NP object and the phrase 'out of something bad' does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The take Alex McLeish has on the possibility of Rangers ' talks with Steven Gerrard concluding with a stellar name in the game taking the job at Ibrox has a certain resonance for the Scotland manager 's own experiences in the post . McLeish believes that Gerrard " wo n't have all the answers " but that in " knowing the game inside out " he could have " great " man-management abilities . These elements speak of the wildly differing fortunes that the 59-year-old encountered in Celtic and Rangers games across his near four years in charge of the Ibrox club from late 2001 . McLeish practically grimaces at the thought of being in Graeme Murty 's shoes this Sunday . Then the soon-to-be outgoing Rangers manager will take his team to ? Celtic Park for a potential title-clincher and on the back of a ten-game winless run in the fixture . McLeish reflects that with eight wins , four draws and 13 defeats in the derby -- which helped him to a treble and Scottish Cup final win over the club 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " ? during a period when ? Celtic were a powerhouse under Martin O'Neill . McLeish had bitter experience of that . Between 2003 and 2004 , the Irishman led his team to seven straight ? victories in this joust -- the longest winning run in the history of it . Yet , if Murty is looking for a straw to clutch , just when Celtic seemed to have a hex on their city rivals McLeish then hauled his team off the canvas to defeat them in both the League Cup and league at Ibrox inside 11 days across November 2004 . The latter victory proved crucial to Rangers snatching the title on the final day of the ? 2004-05 season . " It shows that some good can come out of something bad , " said McLeish . " It tells you that it is possible to come back from a defeat . " The present Rangers side do not appear to have the capacity for such a turnaround on Sunday within them . It would be difficult for them to perform as abjectly as they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a fortnight ago . However , even when playing well in the league game at Ibrox last month , they still could not hold off a ten-man Celtic in going down 3-2 despite twice leading . " It is a tough match to lose , " said McLeish , who joked he only remembers the ones he won . " That 's why I could feel for Graeme Murty after the loss at Hampden . He has bounced back with a victory against Hearts . So maybe he will be thinking about adopting totally different plans and tactics for Sunday . " It is hard to explain the highs and the lows . If you get really high when you win a cup or the league then it is the total opposite if you lose one of those games . " You just want to be in a dark room for five days and let somebody else take training . It was hard because the expectation levels at Rangers are so high . You feel that it would be embarrassing to talk to somebody about it . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ There is certainly no harm in getting help from colleagues in the game because you 've got another chance in the next game . But this is a tough one for Rangers to go to on the back of the semi-final defeat . Especially with the fact that Celtic can win the league . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, 'out of Wyoming' is a prepositional phrase indicating the origin of Josh Allen, not a VP[-ing] predicate.

As NFL Drafts go , the 2018 edition came in with more hype than any in recent memory , and by the time the dust settled , it largely lived up to said hype , I suppose . The night began with a Heisman Trophy winner as the first overall pick , Oklahoma 's Baker Mayfield to Cleveland , and ended with a Heisman Triphy winner as the 32nd overall pick , Louisville 's Lamar Jackson to Baltimore .

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('I') + V1 ('am currently trying to talk') + NP object ('myself') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('doing'). It also involves a reflexive NP object ('myself') coreferential with the subject, which is one of the atypical types allowed in the construction. The interpretation is prevention, as the subject is attempting to prevent themselves from doing something.

While I 'm still reeling at the fact that it 'll be May in a couple of days and desperately trying to find free time with which to continue slogging through God of War , you 'd better believe the deals have n't slowed down a bit . Although May is looking a little more sparse in terms of video game releases , you should be able to treat yourself to something nice this pay day to keep yourself going . As usual , we 've got deals that 'll work in the UK , deals that 'll work in the US and some deals that will work in both the UK and US , as well as presumably many other places . Let 's get started . Humble 's latest bundle is a PlayStation-centric one , and as such , all of these codes will require you to have a US or Canadian PSN account on your system with which to redeem them . Once they 're redeemed and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ UK account . The bundle itself offers up a batch of titles from both Capcom and Sega . Specifically , these ones : Did you know that Alien day was this week ? Me neither . Nevertheless , Humble is celebrating the occasion with a sale on a whole batch of games based on the Alien franchise . Most notable , of course , is Alien Isolation , which is a truly excellent game in my opinion . But hey , Colonial Marines is also there , if you like . Green Man Gaming 's Spring Sale is live now , featuring a whole batch of PC discounts on all sorts of titles , both indie and triple A. Using the code GMG22 on most of these titles will get you an extra 22 per cent off your purchase of choice , too . A new month means a new set of Humble Monthly offerings . This time around , dropping $12 / ? 10 to sign up for a subscription will get you copies of Kerbal Space Program , Dead Rising 4 and Ruiner , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ finishes . Feeling left out with all of this God of War chatter and hype about ? You can pick up a PS4 Pro console along with a copy of the game for no extra cost right now at Amazon . That bundle will get you a glacier white version of the console and run you ? 349.99 . While you 're there buying a shiny new PS4 , you can also pick up 15 months of PlayStation Plus for the price of 12 , either directly through the PS4 console itself or through this handy Amazon link below . For ? 330 , TheGameCollection will sell you a Nintendo Switch Neon console along with copies of Doom , Skyrim and Rocket League . That is , to say the least , a very decent starting pack of games to go along with your brand new Switch . If you do happen to go down the ' building a new PC ' route , as I am currently trying to talk myself out of doing , this super powerful EVGA 1000W power supply @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ its usual ? 123 . Picking up a brand new Xbox One wireless controller ( the new kind that is Bluetooth enabled ) right now will also get you copies of two Remedy games , Quantum Break and a download of Alan Wake . All of that will cost you ? 41 . If you 've been looking to pick up an Xbox One X console lately , you can grab a couple of very decent deals this week and get a game along with your new console . Firstly , ShopTo is offering an Xbox One X with Gears of War Ultimate Edition for just shy of ? 400 . Those on the lookout for a decent gaming laptop at a price that wo n't render you unable to pay rent can take a look at this ASUS 15.6-inch gaming laptop . It 's loaded with an i5-7300HQ CPU , 8GB and a GTX GeForce 1060 , all for ? 799.99 . You 'll also get a batch of Intel 's own gaming downloads emailed to you after you buy , which is a nice bonus @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Nier Automata has made its way into one of these deals roundups through one route or another . Either way , if you 've yet to pick up a copy , it 's down to ? 18.85 on PS4 over at ShopTo and that 's a pretty good price . Full disclosure : I 've not actually seen Mission Impossible : Rogue Nation , so I ca n't vouch as to the quality of the movie . What I can vouch for is that the movie is currently available to buy on Blu-ray for only ? 3 , which seems like a criminally cheap price . Plus , Ghost Protocol was alright , right ? In what might be the cheapest way to currently get a PSVR headset ( V2 ) , using the code EMCPTRU35 at checkout over at NewEgg will allow you to pick up this PlayStation VR headset bundle that includes a PS camera and a copy of Doom VFR , all for $187.49 for a limited time . Over at GameStop currently , you 'll find a big range of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all with up to 20 per cent off . Among this range you 'll be able to find various editions of Monopoly , Clue and even the Dark Souls board game for a little less than usual . Worth noting that there is also a Dragon Ball Z Edition of Monopoly , which is mondo cool , to say the least .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('I') + V1 ('trying to talk') + NP object ('myself') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('doing'). It also involves a reflexive NP object ('myself') coreferential with the subject, which is an atypical but acceptable type of NP object in this construction. The interpretation is prevention, as the subject is attempting to prevent themselves from going down the 'building a new PC' route.

While I 'm still reeling at the fact that it 'll be May in a couple of days and desperately trying to find free time with which to continue slogging through God of War , you 'd better believe the deals have n't slowed down a bit . Although May is looking a little more sparse in terms of video game releases , you should be able to treat yourself to something nice this pay day to keep yourself going . As usual , we 've got deals that 'll work in the UK , deals that 'll work in the US and some deals that will work in both the UK and US , as well as presumably many other places .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a general activity (developing) without the specific causative or preventive meaning characteristic of the construction.

" I ca n't breathe , " said Shaquem Griffin , as he fielded a phone call from John Schneider , the Seattle Seahawks ' general manager . And Griffin 's journey was the greatest story to emerge from a draft that was , fittingly , absolutely breathless from start to finish . So much focus inevitably is drawn to day one , where first-round prospects who are already household names find out where they are likely to spend the bulk of their sprouting career . But on Saturday afternoon , as Shaquem Griffin 's twin brother , Shaquil , fetched him from the bathroom to tell him his phone was ringing , the draft got its great human moment . Shaquem would break down in tears after talking to Schneider and Seattle head coach Pete Carroll ( video below ) . A birth defect meant that the Florida-born linebacker had to have his left hand amputated at just four years old . Now he was being drafted in the fifth round by one of the NFL 's best teams . Considering how exacting the NFL draft process is , considering how many times @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't do things , considering how elite an athlete you would have to be to be a college football stand-out with just one hand -- especially on defense -- Griffin 's story is a miracle . That the Seahawks drafted him a year after selecting his twin brother is simply the beautiful moment that their family thought an unrealisable dream . Shaquil , an in-demand recruit , had insisted when coming out of high school that he would only consider offers from colleges that would take his brother too . Some were n't interested but the University of Central Florida accommodated both and ended up with two NFL-calibre stars . " I want to show the entire world , no matter if you have one hand , two hands , if you 're a ball player , you just play ball , " Griffin said before the draft -- now he will have his chance . Shaquem Griffin was the only invitee to the NFL draft not taken in the first round ( Getty ) The third day of the draft throws up these unlikely tales @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ man mountain at 6ft 8in and nearly 350lbs , has never played a single down of American football but was selected in the seventh round by reigning Super Bowl champions the Philadelphia Eagles . Kahlil McKenzie had hoped to get drafted by his dad , Oakland Raiders GM Reggie . Instead he was drafted by their rivals , the Kansas City Chiefs . But as good as these late-round stories are , it is the day one guys that are most likely to be lighting up NFL fields when football returns in September . Rarely has there been such anticipation for the start of a draft , with up to six quarterbacks thought of as possible first-rounders . In the end it would be five . Though in a different order to anticipated and including a big shock at the top and a big slide in the middle . Baker Mayfield was drafted first overall by Cleveland ( Getty ) Baker Mayfield was first to have his name called and will bring some swagger to Cleveland even if he flames out , like some of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Jets saw Sam Darnold fall to them at third overall while the Buffalo Bills had to trade up to snaffle inaccurate totem pole Josh Allen . Josh Rosen slid to 10 , but the Arizona Cardinals moving up to take him there may put him in the best situation of all the rookie quarterbacks . Notionally he is sitting behind Sam Bradford for a year , as Lamar Jackson will do in Baltimore after being selected 32nd overall , but should the season go south we are likely to see both passers in action before their rookie season is out . Mayfield and Darnold will have to win competitions to get their QB job but both figure to be the face of their franchise for the next decade . Second overall pick Saquon Barkley would be for his if the New York Giants were n't already blessed with arguably the league 's most famous player , Odell Beckham Jr . Trying to judge the success or failure of a team 's draft haul within 24 hours of the lights going off is nigh-on impossible , and many a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in New Orleans last year , dismissed only to end up succeeding . Nonetheless , here is a first-glance take of the 2018 NFL draft : Best value pick : Oakland did well to pick Maurice Hurst ( Michigan ) in the fifth round as part of a Jekyll and Hyde draft where they also snaffled a potential bargain in Arden Key . Worst value pick : Saquon Barkley . Even if he 's a hall-of-famer , this was a pitiful use of such a valuable draft pick . If you 're not taking a QB or other premium position in this spot then trade down . No excuses . Staying at two to take a running back -- the position paid only marginally more , on average , than a punter or kicker -- is absolutely , mind-numbingly stupid in the age of the rookie wage scale . Considering he basically cost more than two first-rounders , Marcus Davenport also seems incredibly overvalued . Best team haul : Chicago have had a brilliant off-season , securing a talented young coaching staff , some big-name free agent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the draft alongside some interior O-line help and a lights-out receiver for Mitchell Trubisky to find . The draft broke nicely for Ryan Pace . Mitch Trubisky gained more than almost any other player in the draft - protection and weapons ( Getty 2017 ) Worst team haul : Based on quality and value rather than quantity , it is probably the Seahawks . Shaquem Griffin was the story of the draft but Rashaad Penny came at a high price , Rasheem Green may work out but the rest are late-round fliers . It is these that Pete Carroll has made his career out of developing but the pipeline has dried up in recent seasons . He needs to tap it again for this year 's class to contribute . Biggest head-scratcher : Apart from ' how Dave Gettleman still has a job ' with reference to the Barkley pick above , you could argue it was the New England Patriots not taking a quarterback . With so many picks and a strong recent track record of successfully developing mid-round QBs into starters , to only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . But worse than that was the New Orleans Saints trading next year 's first-rounder for a raw edge-rushing project when they knew that they 'd likely need a Drew Brees replacement next year . |

One in three retirees who have chosen to keep their savings invested instead of buying an annuity are first-time investors , new research shows . Income drawdown has become a highly popular way of funding retirement since pension freedoms were introduced three years ago , and is now more common than buying an annuity that provides a guaranteed income for life . However , 32 per cent of retirees who have chosen this option have no investment experience , according to a survey of 742 people carried out by YouGov for Zurich UK . Pension pot options : One in three retirees who have chosen drawdown are first-time investors The study also found that two in five , or 41 per cent , have not received either financial advice or guidance about drawdown and warns that such lack could leave pensioners at risk of running out of money in retirement . It comes as 345,265 pension pots were moved into drawdown between October 2015 , when pension freedoms where introduced , to September 2017 . That 's more than double the number of annuity purchased during the same period , which stood @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Financial Conduct Authority . Nearly half a million people ( just over 431,000 ) are using drawdown now , according to Zurich 's calculation - which is based on the assumption that the number of people choosing drawdown has increased at the same pace than it has during those two years . However , this means that tens of thousands of those relying on drawdown for their retirement years have not sought regulated financial advice or guidance - despite having never actively invested in the stock market , according to the report . Assuming that drawdown would be simple was the most common reason for that , with almost half of novice investors who had not received advice saying so . Putting savings at risk ? But a third claimed they were confident in their investment decisions A further third claimed they were confident in their investment decisions , despite having no previous experience of actively investing . But Zurich warned that poor decisions in drawdown could lead to consumers taking on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ high withdrawals . ' As double the number of people choose drawdown over annuities , Britons clearly favour the freedom and flexibility , but the issue is that many appear to be underestimating its complexity , ' Alistair Wilson , a pensions expert at Zurich , said . ' In the build-up to retirement , many savers rely on pension firms to make investment decisions on their behalf , meaning many have no hands-on investment experience when they take control of their pot . ' For retirees not getting advice or guidance , there is a danger they could end up picking the wrong investments or taking money out of their pot too quickly . This is putting a worrying number of people at risk of running out of money in retirement . ' The warning follows that of the FCA , which warned many people are dipping in to take a 25 per cent tax-free lump sum after turning 55 despite not intending to retire yet , then making poor investment moves with the rest of their pots . Women were more likely to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 41 per cent admitting so as opposed to 29 per cent of men . One in ten people said they relied on Google to figure out how drawdown worked , while one in five looked at newspapers and magazines . Pension firms were the leading source of guidance for a third of consumers , though 44 per cent of all those in drawdown confessed they would never get advice or guidance . Zurich said the Government should reconsider the case for introducing mandatory guidance for drawdown , requiring people not getting regulated financial advice to opt either in or out of receiving guidance before accessing their pension . It also said would also like to see the introduction of free drawdown MOTs to help consumers not getting advice check that they are on track in drawdown .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'opt out of delivering treatment' involves an intransitive verb 'opt' with no NP object, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a personal choice to not participate in an action, which is different from the causative meanings associated with the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'opt out of' followed by a gerund phrase 'delivering treatment', which is a different construction. There is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the interpretation is neither movement/extraction nor prevention.

This week Bill Carne chatted to Ben Aldred about his footballing experiences with Hakin United , Swansea City and some other local clubs as a talented young midfield player who is building back towards success after some injuries kept him out for a while . . . At 20 years of age Ben Aldred has already experienced the highs and lows of local football after starting out with Hakin United as a real nipper of five years old . Last season saw him score the opening goal of The Vikings ' Senior Cup semi-final against Merlins Bridge but they eventually lost 6-2 -- and poor old Ben sustained a nasty knee injury which kept him out for the rest of the campaign . Thankfully , Ben is now back in action and playing regularly in his central midfield role for The Vikings ' second team coached by Scott Davies , Anthony Mayhew and Leigh Broome , enjoying his football and enjoying it . " It 's just nice to be able to play again , " admitted Ben , " and I 'm pleased @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we aim to win the second division but sadly for us we lost to Prendergast Villa in the section 's cup semi-final . We were all gutted but in one way I felt worse because I was n't able to play because I was cup tied . " Ben started out at The Obs because he was taken up there by his dad Anthony Aldred , who then coached the under sevens ' team with Colin Fawcett . " My father played for Hakin for a long time and I took to it straight away because I was always kicking a ball around at home ever since I can remember -- and I have also had great support from my mother , Zoe Jenkins , like my younger brothers Aidan ( 13 ) and Lucas ( 11 ) , who also play for The Vikings . " From there Ben played for Camrose , who had good players like Laurie Haworth but was then invited to go for trials with Swansea City , did well and was picked for the squad right through to under 15 level @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had different coaches every season as we trained three times a week and played matches on Sundays . " Of course it meant a huge amount of travel and time spent away from home but my family was brilliant in taking me everywhere ; and it was a help that we could share lifts with Scott Jones ( Neyland ) , Luke Raymond ( Narberth ) , and Liam Cullen ( still at Swansea ) . " Most of our home matches were played at Llandarcy because the academy had n't been built then and we played the likes of Arsenal , Chelsea , West Ham and Spurs -- and for away games our parents were n't allowed to travel on the team bus and often shared lifts again to watch us play . " During training sessions we started off with some strength and conditioning work but the rest of the two hours were spent on developing skills and tactical awareness in readiness for matches . " Ask Ben about highlights and the top of the list would undoubtedly be a trip to Austria to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we flew out and stayed in a hotel for over a week and played against Bayern Munich as one of the teams there . " We lost 2-0 but played really well and our coaches were very pleased as we also took on Salzburg , Werder Bremen , and New York Rebels as part of the trip and I will never forget our games in front of far bigger crowds than we were ever used to at home . But by then Ben had suffered a few niggling injuries and at the end of the season , after discussing it with his parents , decided he did n't want all the travel any more since the fun had gone out of being with Swansea and he fancied being able to play alongside his old school pals again . His coaches did offer him the chance to return if he realised it was a mistake but his mind was already made up and he made a gentle return to local senior football with Herbrandston Seconds in Division Five of the Manderwood Pembrokeshire League . " I really @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ good manager in Dai Davies and we won the section and the division cup at Marble Hall . " But I was starting to feel stronger and my mates Louis Thompson , Dan Evans and Ben Howells asked me to re-join them at The Obs and the pull was too great ; although I really enjoyed myself at Herbie . " " I was made really welcome by all the boys back at Hakin and I had a few games in the firsts but mainly as part of the strong second side coached by Wayne Morgans . " I found it a lot faster than Division Five , especially with the first team , but to be honest I was just glad to be getting some game time at this level . " I thought it would be good to try and play as much in the first division as possible and so I joined Milford United for a season with Adrian ' Boo-Boo ' Hutchings , who I think is one of the best managers I have played for . " We had a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the league and reached the semi-final of the Senior Cup . " We took on Goodwick United as rank underdogs at the Conygar Bridge Meadow Stadium and although we were disappointed to lose 2-0 we knew that we had pushed them all the way and they knew they had been in a tough match ! " Playing at the Conygar Bridge Meadow Stadium continued for Ben because he had a good season with Haverfordwest County 's Academy Under 19s Squad with Steve Batty as manager of a strong team . " It meant a fair bit of travel but it was a good experience to play against some very good teams and Steve did a good job because he always wanted to play good attacking football and we had some good results against teams from all over South Wales . " But now Ben Aldred is back where he started and is young enough , now that he is back to full fitness , to move onwards in football and we wish him every success because he is good enough to play consistently well in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of any more injuries !

When Eric Paslay sat down with Morgan Evans and Chris DeStefano in 2017 to write what would eventually become his latest single " Young Forever , " the singer remembers fellow artist and songwriter Evans throwing out the idea for the song . " At the time he was dating this girl -- I believe her name was Kelsea Ballerini , " Paslay says with a smile , while settling into the couch at Taste of Country 's studio in Nashville . " It was his idea , and it 's very simple but awesome -- and most of the best songs are . It was one of those moments where every line was falling out and we were like , ' Whoa ! ' " Paslay recalls suggesting , " Do you remember when we were younger / So much faith we could walk on water . " He was n't sure if they could say this in a song , though . Asking his co-writers if the lyric was sacrilegious , they disagreed and said it was an " awesome line . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be sacrilegious by saying that line . It 's opening up your thoughts . It 's knowing that anything is possible with the greatest love of all , and that it 's not about you , either , " he details . " This song is very simple , but it can get deep if you want it to . It 's those moments where there 's some smart with some very simple . " He brought forth some of the lyrics for reference : " Kings and queens/lighting up the boulevard/If I had one wish we 'd be together , young forever . " " That 's a great feeling , " he muses . " And I think everybody wants to feel that again . I hope when people are 100 years old , they go skydiving . " He adds , " The reflection in the mirror should n't reflect how old you are . I think this year I realized that nobody 's old ... One hundred years is n't that long if you 're lucky enough to get there . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " explains this youthful outlook on life . " Do you remember believing in magic /Taking a chance just ' cause we had it , " Paslay sings . That lyric clearly speaks to him . " You start learning things and you go , ' I kind of wish I did n't know that , ' but that 's life , " he notes . " You remember believing in magic . You can not create this on your own . It comes out of nowhere . You 're creating something out of nothing and all of a sudden the chemicals are rushing and you go , ' Wow , who are you ? Nice to meet you . Let 's have fun . ' " Paslay adds that this feeling is n't just reserved to romantic venues . It can be a platonic venture by having fun with friends , taking chances , and not knowing what 's going to happen . " Living life and not just pulling in the same cul-de-sac and parking in your garage and doing the same thing over and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ song features group vocals provided by Paslay 's co-writers and band . He says he wanted to make " Young Forever " feel all inclusive and inspiring , as well as allow his fans to sing along when they hear it live .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('a complete stranger talked a man out of jumping off a bridge'). It involves a prevention interpretation (the stranger prevented the man from jumping off the bridge) and the verb 'talked' fits into the category of means by verbal persuasion. The NP object 'a man' is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'jumping off a bridge'. Therefore, it is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A man who was talked out of jumping off a bridge by a complete stranger 10 years ago has revealed they are now best friends . Jonny Benjamin , now 31 , who lives in south London , was 20 years old when he sat on Waterloo Bridge in 2008 preparing to jump - until passerby Neil Laybourn persuaded him not to . Six years after the incident Jonny launched a social media search to help him find the stranger on the bridge and the pair were eventually reunited live on ITV 's morning show - then called Daybreak . Since then Jonny has rebuilt his life and teamed up with Neil , 35 , from Surrey , to raise awareness of mental health problems - efforts that have attracted the support of Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge .

Jonny had spent a month in hospital after being diagnosed with schizo-affective disorder , which is a combination of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder . On that fateful night in January 2008 , Neil walked by and asked Jonny why he was on the bridge , and offered to buy him a coffee . The intervention saved his life .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks an NP object and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'grow out of' in a different sense, indicating a change over time rather than causation or prevention.

It 's not all about your penis . Sex is still happening even if your penis is n't involved . It does n't start with penetration and it does n't end when you jizz .

It 's actually pretty damn fun to do things to a vagina and see all the pleasure it 's bringing . Being able to bring a woman immense pleasure with your mouth is n't weak , it 's powerful . It 's an amazing skill to be able to make someone tingle all over with just your body . So do n't be proud about never going down on a woman , because you 're essentially declaring to the world that you 're not bothered about your partner 's pleasure , you 're not giving women orgasms , and your tongue game is weak .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves an intransitive verb 'came' with no NP object and the phrase 'out of nothing' does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Anyway , that 's your lot for this MBM , because Suzanne Wrack was at Wembley ... and her big verdict is in ! Enjoy , enjoy . Congratulations to Chelsea , commiserations to Arsenal , and good evening to you all . Gabby Logan has just made a magnificent Bachmann-Kirby Overdrive pun on the BBC . That knocks Gary Lineker 's wordplay into a cocked hat . It 's got to be worth some sort of award . Is there not a Pulitzer category for this sort of thing ? The prize-giving ceremony . Arsenal go up to collect their runner-up medals . Grim faces , understandably . And then it 's the turn of Chelsea , led by their captain Katie Chapman , who has now won this competition an astonishing ten times ! The entire squad congregates . Chapman hoists the silverware , with the help of Maren Mjelde ! These remarkable women celebrate , and Wembley erupts ! Fran Kirby speaks ! " We were disappointed that we let them get the goal , so luckily I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that we were going to win . Individual awards were great , but the main ones are what you win with your team . That 's more important to me . " The brilliant Bachmann , the official player of the match , is beside herself with joy . " It 's an amazing feeling . Every footballer dreams to one day play at Wembley , and to win feels amazing ! I have n't scored that much this year : it 's not important when you have Fran to your side , who scores all the time ! It does n't matter who scores , though it was an amazing feeling to score in front of so many people ! " Chelsea race to their fans , in full-on Cavort Mode ! They 've won their club 's second FA Cup ; Arsenal are stuck on 14 . Ramona Bachmann scored two wonderful goals after the break ; then Fran Kirby added a brilliant third , just when it looked as though Arsenal might hustle their way back into the match thanks to Vivianne Miedema 's strike @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and they 're applauded by a deflated but sporting Arsenal . 90 min +2 : Kirby slaloms in from the left , evading three challenges in ball-glued-to-boot style . That 's a showstopping display of skill . Shame about the following overhit pass to Cuthbert , who would have been free down the middle otherwise . Instead she 's pushed out to the right , where the attack fizzles out , not that it really matters now . 89 min : O'Reilly curls a ball into the Chelsea box from the right , but nobody in red can get anywhere near . Kirby goes up the other end , but over-elaborates with Aluko down the right . A highly entertaining second half is petering out . By way of illustration , on the BBC , Jonathan Pearce is riffing on vegetable soup . 82 min : Cuthbert runs hard at Mitchell , who has been targeted relentlessly by Chelsea down the right today . Cuthbert spins adroitly and breaks clear into the box , but the angle she faces is tight and she ca n't find a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ scraps with Eriksson as she tries to make her way into the Chelsea box from the right . She tumbles to the ground and claims a penalty , but it looked like a 50-50 challenge that was outside the box anyway . The referee waves play on . ... Kirby comes again , picking up a pass from Blundell on the right . She cuts inside , nips past a flailing Quinn , and curls hard into the bottom left ! Chelsea 's star has restored her team 's two goal lead within three minutes ! Fran Kirby curls in the third for Chelsea . Photograph : Paul Childs/Reuters Mead dribbles brilliantly along the byline to the left of the Chelsea goal . She pulls the ball back for Miedema , who whips a first-time shot into the bottom right ! That came out of nothing , and this is n't over yet ! Vivianne Miedema slots home to put Arsenal back in the match . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Nobbs in the centre circle and races towards the Arsenal box . For a second , this looks dangerous , but Spence seems to lose a little confidence as she nears the box , and instead of shooting - it would have been a glorious solo goal - she hesitates and loses possession . 67 min : Kirby and Ji are close to opening up Arsenal down the left , but the final pass goes wrong . Arsenal look defeated at the moment . Can the 14-time winners find the extra gear they need to mount a comeback ? 65 min : Today 's attendance at Wembley is a very impressive 45,423 . That 's a record for a Women 's FA Cup final ! This is a sport finally getting the credit and respect it deserves . Ramona Bachmann has delivered a performance to match . 62 min : Williamson brings down Spence , to the left of the Arsenal box . Eriksson whips the free kick high and hard to the far post . Mjelde rises and plants a header towards the top right . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . This is sensational . Bachmann , floating on air , drops a shoulder to lay waste Mitchell down the right . She regally enters the box , and curls towards the top left . The ball takes a deflection off Quinn en route to the corner , but take nothing away from the run and shot . The Matthews cup final ... the Gerrard cup final ... the Bachmann cup final . 59 min : Space for Spence down the right . She hooks into the Chelsea box , looking for Kirby , but Williamson clears . This is a crucial period for Arsenal : another goal for Chelsea now , and cup number 15 might begin to look like a pipe dream . 56 min : A burst of quality here , though , as Little dribbles down the inside-right channel before slipping a pass inside for Miedema . She 's got time and space , but opts not to hit with her left , checking inside instead . Chapman slides in and blocks the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Chelsea looked seriously open at the back there . 54 min : Chapman swings one in from the right , forcing Arsenal to concede a corner . The set piece does n't lead to much . The game 's got a little scrappy since the goal , with both teams reassessing their positions . A lot of loose passes . 53 min : Chapman and van de Donk get involved in a shoving match out on the Chelsea right . Chapman 's boot looked a bit high , and Mitchell gets involved as well . It 's all something and nothing , and tempers soon cool . 52 min : But Arsenal are n't taking this lying down . Mead works herself a little space down the inside-right channel , and gets her side 's first shot on target . Low and hard , towards the bottom right . Lindahl saves , but makes a meal of it , forcing Bright to knock the rebound out for a corner . The set piece is easily dealt with by Chelsea , but that 's much better from Arsenal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) This is a brilliant goal ! Ji , deep on the right , slips a ball inside for Bachmann , who one-twos crisply with Kirby and enters the box . Then she pearls an unstoppable rising shot into the top-right corner . What a finish ! Van Veenendaal got a fingertip to it , but could do nothing to stop the shot , such was its vicious power . That 's some finish ! Ramona Bachmann fires in the opening goal of the game . Photograph : Paul Simpson/Rex/Shutterstock And we 're off again ! Arsenal get the ball rolling once more . There have been no half-time substitutions . According to Karen Carney , Chelsea 's injured winger , the Blues have been told in no uncertain terms to up the tempo . Let 's see . Half-time scores : Away from Wembley , Everton and Southampton are playing in the men 's Premier League . That game 's goalless at the break too , but those desirous of more detail could do worse than clicking here : 43 min : Ji batters @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up the rebound , and her second attempt is much better , a curler towards the bottom right . But there 's no pace on the shot , and van Veenendaal is able to smother it easily enough . 42 min : Kirby jolts the game into life with the bolt of electricity it surely needs . She embarks on a George Best-style left-to-right dribble , at great speed . She nearly breaks into the box , but is forced to check and lay off to Ji . Chelsea suddenly appear to be going nowhere , so it 's pretty daft of Janssen to clatter into Ji . Free kick , just to the right of the D , and a booking for the Arsenal midfielder . 38 min : Bright , sitting deep on the right , looks to release Kirby down the left with a quarterback rake . Too far . Goal kick . " Is BBC commentator Jonathan Pearce always as bad as this ? " wonders Charles Antaki . " This is not so much a description of the game as a series of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his fellow-commentator , and , occasionally , a meditation on a player 's history touched off by something that has actually happened on the pitch . " He 's just spent a couple of minutes reminiscing about a visit to Wembley for a Schoolboy international during the early 1970s . I quite like meandering jazz pieces like that , but each to their own I guess . 36 min : See 34 min . Arsenal are struggling to hold onto possession and offering next to nothing in attack . Chelsea are hogging the ball ... and offering next to nothing in attack . It 's a very strange way for the game to have suddenly settled , given the entertaining opening exchanges . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves the phrase 'flowing out of emerging markets', where 'flowing' is part of the verb phrase indicating movement, not a VP2[-ing] predicate with a causee. Additionally, there is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the interpretation is neither movement/extraction nor prevention.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'get something out of brutalising another human being' involves the verb 'get' with an NP object 'something', but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it suggests deriving pleasure or benefit from an action, which is not consistent with the construction's defined interpretations.

SIMON - It 's May , summer is around the corner , although that may be less welcome if you 're at school or college and have to sit exams , the ones you 've been dreading . KATE - Oh , I hated my exams , did n't you ? SIMON - Yeah . It 's been a while though . KATE - Yeah . We 'll be looking at the effect exams can have on people 's mental health , and we 're not just talking about the students taking the exams , but also the teachers , the ones putting them through it . We 'll be talking to someone who worked as a maths teacher . Oh ... But hey , let 's not judge her too soon , ' cause in fact it turns out she 's actually a human being . Who knew ? And here she is , Lucy Rycroft-Smith . Hello Lucy . LUCY - Hello . KATE - How are you ? LUCY - Okay , thank you . KATE - Good . Now , the stress of the job took such a toll on her mental health that she left , and she has news for anyone who 's ever struggled with maths . She says that your maths anxiety might actually be something you 've picked up from your teacher . More on that later . And for anyone who 's not taking exams or helping friends and family through them we 've got stuff for you too . SIMON - We 'll be talking about Verne Troyer who was Mini-Me in the ' Austin Powers ' films , and who died in April . Characters like Mini-Me might be funny to some , but we 've got someone in the studio with us who says that showing somebody with dwarfism in that light onscreen made his life a complete misery . Hi there , Eugene Grant . EUGENE- Hello . KATE - We also have Liz Atkin in the house . Hello Liz . LIZ - Hello . KATE - Liz is an artist with , now give me a second to say this , dermatillomania . Dermatillomania ? LIZ - Dermatillomania , or compulsive skin picking . KATE - Okay . So that 's skin picking disorder . LIZ - Yes . KATE - Okay . To you and me . Well , not you , because you know it as dermatillomania I guess . LIZ - I know it as many things . laughs KATE - Now you 've just got back from a skin picking and hair pulling conference in the United States . LIZ - I have , yes . KATE - Was it great ? LIZ - It was . It was everything you can imagine . Yes , I 've returned from the TLS Foundation Conference , it 's the only one of its kind at the moment in the world for these conditions . KATE - Great . Well , we 're looking forward to hearing a lot more about that later . SIMON - There are short person conventions and so on , which I thought was quite niche , but yours is very ... I mean , how many people go ? LIZ - Five hundred , and the leading kind of scientists from around the world present their latest research into these conditions , so it 's quite an important event for those of us that have the disorders . KATE - Are n't you off to a short persons ' event , Simon ? SIMON - You 're looking at an athlete . laughter Whoa , whoa , whoa , what 's with that laughter ? So yes , I 'll be going to the National Dwarf Games which are coming up soon , three days of different sports and activities , and I 'm doing the marksmanship . KATE - Right . Can I ask an awkward question ? SIMON - Oh ... Yes , you can . KATE - Now , I do n't know that you are totally known for any like , athletics ... SIMON - Athletic prowess ? KATE - Yeah , marksmanship or not . SIMON - Yeah . KATE - Is this one of those like oh , it 's a games , you 're all dwarfs , therefore you can all just come along , have a go ? SIMON - inhales KATE - You know , all of that kind of thing ? Or is it like a real event ? EUGENE- That 's outrageous . SIMON - Yeah , thanks Eugene . This is the perennial debate actually . And even actually after the games there 's a summit , an international , because this is world now , there 's loads of different associations . And always the conversation is , how much is about elite athletes ? Because this is the highest level we can go before you go into the Paralympics . KATE - Okay . SIMON - Or , how much is just , rock up , enjoy ? The bit they do , if you 're going you must get involved . You ca n't just go and spectate , you must practice , you ca n't just turn up if you 've never done it before . So they 've got some rules in there , but inevitably for some people this is quite new and there are others who are really dedicated , they 're spending a lot of time practising . KATE - Yeah . But which are you ? laughter SIMON - I have spent a whole morning practising , and I probably wo n't win a medal . Enough about us , let 's talk exams , exam stress and mental health . In the studio right here in front of us is the mental health campaigner , Jonny Benjamin . KATE - Welcome back , Jonny . Now , he 's been on the Ouch podcast before , but you might also know him from ' The Stranger on the Bridge ' , the Channel 4 documentary all about his attempt to jump off Waterloo Bridge in London and his hunt for the stranger who persuaded him not to . He struggled with his mental health from a young age , but during his school years there was simply no mental health education , so he was left to get on with it on his own . As a result he says he did n't get the grades he was predicted , which contributed to a downward spiral in his mental health . He was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder which is a combination of schizophrenia and bipolar , and then came his suicide attempt . SIMON - And then the turnaround . After the documentary Jonny became a YouTuber with a channel that raises awareness of mental health issues , and last year he was awarded an MBE for his services to mental health and suicide prevention . KATE - But what makes him particularly interesting to us today is that he runs workshops in secondary schools , which aim to provide a safe and supportive environment to talk about mental health . Jonny , do you notice a change in sort of an increase in mental health around exam time ? JONNY - Oh , absolutely . It 's kind of inevitable really . There 's just so much pressure , there 's so much pressure . I mean there was when I was at school , but I think there 's even more pressure on young people today . SIMON - We were talking sort of generationally , because I remember getting very nervous for mine , and also I thought this is going to determine the rest of my life . But I also thought that was what you 've got to go through . At what point does it spill over to something a bit more serious , and is that what you 're trying to address ? Or help with , should I say . JONNY - Yes , absolutely . I mean the trouble is , our workshops , when we go into schools it 's not during exam time because timetables are too full , we do n't have a slot that we can go into during exam time . So actually when we should be going in we 're not , we 're going in kind of pre-exams . And obviously there 's stress there , but the real stress when we talk to young people is around this time , right now , but there 's no support for them in schools . I mean a lot of schools we go into actually , the counselling services have been cut because of things like funding . We know that schools have got a massive problem with funding , it 's been on the news , but the first thing to go quite often is the counselling or the mental health support in the schools . So many schools we 've been into and they 're like , yeah , yeah , we had to get rid of our counselling service , and I 'm like , that 's ridiculous , you know , you would n't get rid of a physical first aider in schools , you just would n't would you ? Why is mental health always the first thing to sort of go ? SIMON - So the content of the workshops , can you run us through it ? What is it you 're covering ? JONNY - Essentially it 's raising awareness of mental health and kind of explaining what it is and how depression might develop and what the symptoms might be . And not just depression but other conditions as well , but again , it 's limited to what we can fit in . But it 's not just about raising awareness actually , it 's actually empowering them to talk if they need to talk . So we come in with a therapist that sits next door in a space and anyone can go and access that at any time before , during , after . KATE - And what kind of mental health symptoms or conditions are these children coming and chatting about ? JONNY - Well it varies , I mean a lot of the time it 's stress , it 's anxiety a lot of the time , but then , what tends to happen actually is afterwards there 'll be one or two that hang around . They have n't put their hands up but they just hang around and they wait for you and then they 'll come up to you and they spill out all this kind of really complex stuff . Like there was one the other day actually , a young boy that came up to me and he 's actually hearing voices and he has n't told anyone . And that was , you know , it was very complex and so much going on . KATE - And how do you help him ? JONNY - First I think , listening . I spent quite a lot of time with this young man . And first of all it 's listening , listening and kind of just holding the space for them , but then it 's encouraging them to ... softly encouraging them to maybe find someone to talk to , whether that 's family , friends . Actually this young man , they did have a school counsellor , so he went to the school counsellor which was great . But yeah , it 's kind of encouraging them to get help and also reminding them that they can get through this and if they get help now they can address it early on and maybe prevent a crisis . SIMON - Sort of age range ? JONNY - So age range , well all of secondary school really , all of secondary school , but this year we 're launching primary school workshops because we need to get it into primary schools . We 're seeing younger and younger children with things like anxiety and self-harm even in schools . SIMON- I have this mixed reaction which is , fabulous that you 're there , and then I 'm terrified that , oh , someone of eight , nine , is talking ... It 's really tough is n't it ? JONNY - Well , we 're really careful . I mean language is so important , so we 're not going to go in and start talking about things like depression and schizophrenia , it 's more about thoughts , feelings , encouraging young people to be open about their thoughts and feelings . I think around that age there 's a stigma , this stigma that develops . I remember when I was growing up , when I was really , really small I was really sensitive , I cried a lot , I was very emotional , but when I got to around like seven , eight , people started saying to me , " Oh , big boys do n't cry , " you know , " now , come on , man up . Man up now . " So I started to have to hide my emotions when I was vulnerable and the stigma kind of built up around that age , and I wish someone would have come in and said , " It 's okay , it 's okay if you cry and it 's not manly . " KATE - So do you think that when we 're talking about primary age children , obviously there 's the debate around SATs at the moment , whether testing this age group is a good thing or not ? Do you think giving kids that age an exam , is that adding to anxiety levels and stress levels and stuff , or do you think that it would be present anyway ? JONNY - No , I mean I think it definitely increases anxiety levels , absolutely . Again , there 's such pressure , and pressure on teachers as well , these league tables and kind of where the school is standing . There 's so much pressure . When we go into schools , I mean I had a conversation with a teacher recently actually , this is shocking , the teacher said to me that her pay level depends on the grades that the students get . KATE - What ? JONNY - Yeah . If all the students get A she gets higher pay , but if obviously the students get like Bs , Cs , Ds , she gets ... And I was like , what ? She 's like , yeah that 's how the school does it . SIMON - So it 's performance related pay . JONNY - Yeah , that 's it , performance related pay . KATE - Let 's talk to Lucy here , because you 're actually ... Well , you were there dealing with that . Was that the case in your school , that your pay was linked to results ? LUCY - Yes . It 's slightly more complex than that , and there are different rules depending on which schools or which authorities , or at the moment which academies you might work for . But yes , there 's a broad sense in which you would be judged on your results and then your performance management would feed into your performance related pay . Yes , that does happen . KATE - So Lucy , tell me what 's your background ? So you used to be a maths teacher , and what happened ? LUCY - Yeah , so I worked as a maths teacher for some time , and not just a maths teacher , lots of other subjects too , and really my experience of teaching was such that the stress and the difficulties associated with the job got far too much for me really , past the point that I think any human could bear . And I really blamed myself and struggled for a very long time with it before coming out the other end , you know , leaving teaching and taking some time to recover and then realising actually it was n't my fault and this was a very , very common picture amongst teachers in the UK and other countries that have a similar kind of climate at the moment , and that something needs to be done about it . SIMON - And this is three years ago . You 're now an education researcher . LUCY - It 's complex , but yes , I 'm doing writing and research . SIMON - And your bit about you can pick up the anxiety for maths teachers , what did you mean by that ? And the students . LUCY - One thing that I do at the moment is I look at recent research and try to talk to teachers about how that might help them in the classroom . And some stuff 's come out recently about maths anxiety , and it 's really not very well known generally as a phenomenon but what 's particularly interesting about maths anxiety is it 's fairly prevalent and there 's a sense in which if as a teacher you have maths anxiety there 's a likelihood you can pass that to students , i.e. , if you have it they 're more likely to have it . KATE - What 's maths anxiety ? LUCY - Yes , so that 's the question . It 's difficult to pin down . What we know is it 's not just generalised anxiety and it 's not just poor performance in maths . This is something that people experience that 's a separate phenomenon to those things but also encompasses those in some way , and if you 've ever had that brain freeze , that panic , when somebody asks you a mathematical question you might start to understand it . KATE - There 's a lot of nodding around the table here at the moment . LUCY - And it 's very common , you know , even as somebody who identifies with maths and loves maths I 've definitely experienced it myself . KATE - I just remember growing up every time we got into the classroom in primary school we would be given seven minute maths and I ... You had like 70 questions , you had to do it in seven minutes , and that was just awful for me because I could never ... I just could n't do it on the spot , I just could not do it , and I felt terrible every day coming in thinking I 'm going to have to do seven minute maths right now , you know , the first thing we do . And I was generally a high achiever at school but this set me on a down note every morning . LUCY - Yeah , that 's a really common story . SIMON - And is there a balance though , because we all got that and that 's part of it , and I hated double maths and it was miserable and so on , but ... LUCY - I 'm sorry to hear that . laughs SIMON - Well no , I mean it was fine , I got through it , just it was n't fun to do . But I 'm trying to work out when does it become a significant issue and when is it ... ? KATE - When does it become a mental health problem ? SIMON - That 's it . KATE - And when is it just normal ? SIMON - Just what we all feel , yeah , from time to time . KATE - Lucy ? LUCY - Yes , and you know , I 'm no expert in this , I have my own experience and I have , reading other people 's work , but there 's a sense in which we can look at the brain and how the brain responds while people are answering maths questions . And there 's a very sort of specific idea here that it 's not just this is difficult or I feel bad , this is actual working memory gets completely disrupted so you can not answer , your brain freezes up in essence , and you could n't answer this question even if I offered you money to do so at this point because you are in this frozen response situation where your body is panicking . KATE - Jonny , do you have any experience of these kinds of things at school ? JONNY - Yeah , well actually just my own experience , so I 'll never forget when I was ... I would have been eight years old . This is horrible . I was in class , in a maths class , and my teacher pointed at me and asked me to do an equation I think it was , and I froze . And she really pressured me and I burst into tears in front of the whole class and I 'll never forget the shame and the embarrassment . It was awful , it was awful . Yeah , here I was , crying in front of my whole class and she just was so unsympathetic . KATE - I guess what we 're hearing from sort of Jonny 's side but also from Lucy 's side is that we 're needing mental health support for the children , but also mental health support for the teachers , because Lucy , you 're kind of on the other side of this and you were n't able to cope in that role . Is that fair to say ? LUCY - Yeah absolutely , and I think it 's interesting hearing Jonny describe that because that teacher may have come across as unsympathetic and I do n't know anything about that situation , but as a teacher you 've got a couple of things going on there . One is that you are told to test students in a time related situation . You know , that 's not something you have much choice over , and particularly there 's a lot of policy decisions that get made based on that , you know , you do n't have any option . And the other thing is there 's this cascade effect , if you 're a teacher suffering poor mental health you have n't got the resources to support pupils , or even spot that they 're having those issues . And that is a big concern for me , the more teachers we have at the moment that are really suffering mental health issues , and it 's really prevalent , the less we 're able to then offer students the support we want to . SIMON - In terms of practical support I 'm thinking like adjustments or allowances and I 'm thinking if you 're dyslexic you might get a bit of extra time . Is there anything specific around mental health that either of you recommend or that students can have ? JONNY - I 've been to some schools actually where if young people are particularly anxious , because I mean the whole experience of going into an exam hall and having invigilators , and for some young people it can be really ... yeah , anxiety provoking . So in some schools now they 're actually taking those pupils out of that situation and putting them in more of a quieter room away from everyone else and hopefully it 's kind of , yes , less anxiety-provoking . So they are some making some kind of , yeah , allowances and giving more time for those students . Some schools , but then obviously some schools , or we 've talked to some schools and they say , " We have n't got mental health issues here . " So those schools , no . SIMON - They 're the scary ones ... I mean I may sort of ask questions about prevalence and level but when you say there 's nothing , that 's when it 's always worrying . JONNY - Well , it 's the same , some schools say , " Oh , we do n't have bullying here . " Less and less now , but there are still those schools and they 're in complete denial , which is a shame . KATE - It must be incredibly difficult , Lucy , to be a teacher and have the fate of your pay on other people . I ca n't even imagine what that 's like . LUCY - Yeah , I mean for me it 's one of the greater shames at the moment of the culture that we have , you know , it 's very competitive , we call it hyper accountability , teachers feel like every second of their time must be spent getting students through exams essentially . If they 're not spending time on that it 's not efficient or effective , and actually of course all of the wonderful things that happen in schools , all of the amazing , amazing work that teachers do , you ca n't capture some of that by measuring it at all . And mental health , a lot of that comes under that banner of building brilliant , important role models , relationships , all of those things . SIMON - So , it 's a slightly awkward scenario here , in the scenario , if you 're under a huge amount of pressure , we talked about performance related pay , what happens if you actually had someone who had some sort of learning difficulty who was in the room , so that does mean that they 're going to learn differently ? Do you still get measured on that , or are there allowances ? What happens ? LUCY - Well , I mean this is an enormous debate , as you can imagine in the educational world , and there are some amazing experts out there who are working really , really hard to support children in exactly that situation who get ignored , who get overlooked , who might be excluded for example or actually kicked out of class because they 're in a situation where their results are n't good enough to support what 's happening in the school essentially . I mean that 's rare , but you will also get situations where the teacher just can not give them the support , and this is becoming more and more prevalent . The teacher , the school , any other adults in the room , can not give them the support they need to learn , as you say , perhaps in a different way . And everybody 's in a quandary there . You know , what happens ? Nobody wins in that situation do they ? And as a teacher I have to sometimes have the ethical strength to say , this is n't just about results , this is about a person , a human person who 's in front of me who deserves my care and attention . And the teacher bears the brunt of that of course , that conflict , they 're always in conflict when you 're confronted with a child who has different ranges of complex needs . Sometimes you 're just doing the best you can with what you have and having a difficult conversation with a line manager where they say , " Well , this child is n't achieving as I would hope or their target suggests , " and you have to say , but this is a human person , it 's not just about the numbers on the paper . KATE - And what would be your answer ? What do you think the school should be doing ? LUCY - Well I mean , we need to talk about mental health , and what I find interesting is at the moment there 's a lot of discourse and narrative around things like numeracy and literacy in schools and how important they are , what we have n't got to yet is what some people are calling mood literacy which is this idea that you can think about your own mood . You can self-analyse a bit more , you can separate yourself from situations , consider your own responses to them , and then stop and I guess mediate your own responses . And we can talk to very small children about this , and I have my own children and this is something we talk about all the time , our own reactions , our own mood , our own minds . How can we analyse those a bit better ? And that 's something that has n't quite got to schools yet on a consistent level , I do n't think . SIMON - At the risk of opening a can of worms , you 're saying but you 're doing that as a parent ? LUCY - I 've got two children who are nine and 12 and they 've had a tough time . We divorced when they were quite young and I 've had to get myself through that and get them through that . And one of the ways we 've done it is essentially therapy . We 've sat down and talked about how we emotionally react to situations , how we can think about our effect of our words and our actions on other people . But yeah , this sort of mood literacy idea I think is really , really important . SIMON - Thank you Lucy , thank you Jonny . LUCY - Thank you . JONNY - Thank you . SIMON - We should mention that both of you have books out . Jonny , your book ? What 's it called ? JONNY - Well , I knew the first bit , it 's called , ' The Stranger on the Bridge ' , but the second bit yeah , so ' My journey from despair to hope ' . SIMON - Lucy , would you like me to tell you the name of your book ? LUCY - No , I think I 'll be all right , thanks . SIMON - What 's your book called ? LUCY - My current book is called ' Flip the System UK : A Teachers ' Manifesto ' and I 'm the editor of this , so this is not all my writing , but it 's a collection of ideas from teachers and educationalists about moving UK policy forward essentially . SIMON - Great stuff . KATE - Well , please stay with us , both of you . But now it 's time for a bit of a change of scene as we turn our attention to Hollywood . SIMON - At the end of April the death of Verne Troyer was announced . He was 49 . He was probably best known for playing Mini-Me in the ' Austin Powers ' films . KATE - And there 's been no shortage of tributes to him , including this one from the American actor , Corey Feldman on Twitter . " He had a heart the size of his whole body . He was the finest little man , comedian ever . " SIMON - When I left my first job they called everyone together and said , " Simon is leaving us , he is a short man but he 's been a giant in our office . " laughter Eugene is sighing . I did n't know what to do . KATE - What did you do ? SIMON - I probably just nodded awkwardly . However , elsewhere on Twitter there was this . " It should not take the death of a member of the dwarfism community to prompt a sincere and meaningful discussion about the prejudice many dwarf and disabled people face in their everyday lives , but it is a discussion we really need to have . " Let 's start that conversation . We have the person who wrote that in the studio , Eugene Grant . Welcome to Ouch . EUGENE- Thank you for having me . SIMON- Let 's make this very clear at the top . You do n't have an issue with Verne Troyer as an individual human being , your issue is with Mini-Me the character . EUGENE - Absolutely , yes . SIMON - And you went on to write , " Like dwarf performers in circuses of past days , his character only existed in contrast to others . Watching clips while writing this article , I felt sick . " EUGENE- Yeah . KATE - So tell me , what made you feel sick then ? What is the problem that you 've got with Mini-Me in particular ? EUGENE- Well , that particular reference about feeling sick is talking about the way violence against dwarf bodies was turned into a spectacle in this film . And the bit I wrote about where I feel sick is watching Mike Myers ' foot smashing through the body of Verne Troyer who flies into a wall and crumples against it . And there 's a whole fight scene in the film in which violence against dwarf bodies is clearly glamorised and turned into a spectacle for entertainment . And this is n't new , average height and able-bodied people have long since been entertained by violence towards dwarfs , and you can trace this back to the Romans , to court dwarves for the 16th , 17th , 18th century , things like dwarf wrestling these days . What I was saying in the article was that actually this violence was then often recreated in real life . Academic studies show that 12% of people with dwarfism experience physical violence . If you Google the name , Martin Henderson , you will see a story about a man with dwarfism who was picked up and smashed into the ground , who was left paralysed by a stranger in a bar . And so when films like ' Austin Powers ' , ' Wolf of Wall Street ' , turn violence into dwarf bodies into a spectacle they 're pretty much condoning it , they 're endorsing it . KATE - Okay . Playing devil 's advocate here ... EUGENE- Sure . KATE - Verne Troyer is nectar , he got offered a part on a big film . He , I imagine , was paid handsomely for that part . Why should n't it be his choice as another dwarf , to say , " Actually for me I 'm comfortable with this and I feel it 's fine for me to take part in it , and be paid well to do it ? " EUGENE - There are a few things about that . Firstly , is that with such a paucity of positive and realistic representations towards people in any other aspect , these representations do a huge amount of damage . Most average height people will meet very few , if any , small people in real life at all , so cultural representations like Mini-Mi , like ' Wolf of Wall Street ' , do huge damage , because you get people growing up for decades without any interaction with someone with dwarfism in real life , any positive or realistic representations in real life , and yet they know Disney , they know Mini-Me , they know ' Wolf of Wall Street ' and that 's their frame of reference . KATE - But do you not think it is ... ? Sorry . EUGENE - But hang on , just a second , to answer your question though , one of the things that really interested me about this whole personal choice argument is that this is only ever applied to people who become and sustain these stereotypes . There 's another side to this argument which is never discussed , which is the personal choice of the people whom these representations affect . Because this is what stereotypes do , stereotypes limit your ability to carve out your own life , your own image , your own independence and autonomy . And so people who are affected by these stereotypes , where are the people who champion their personal choice ? Studies show that nearly 80% of people with dwarfism have experienced verbal abuse , and nearly two thirds feel unsafe when going out . I mentioned 12% have experienced physical violence . Where 's their personal choice ? I do n't see the champions ever coming out for their personal choice , it 's only for people like Mini-Me . KATE - Do you not think that the representation is actually getting better though in the media , in films ? We 've got people like Peter Dinklage and Warwick Davis and ... SIMON - Lisa Hammond in ' EastEnders ' . KATE - Lisa Hammond . EUGENE- And Meredith Eaton as well in ' MacGyver ' . SIMON - Oh , ' MacGyver ' , I quite enjoy that . KATE - Yeah . And you 're saying people are n't seeing them but actually they are there , they are playing positive people instead of ... EUGENE- Well yes and no . I mean to answer your general question , yes , representation is getting better and it 's been a long time coming too , but then what often happens , you 're having Lisa Hammond , Meredith Eaton and Peter Dinklage doing great work , but then one of the problems that you have is that because your representation has been so bad for so long suddenly you have things like ' Game of Thrones ' and Tyrion Lannister , they 're talked about as if they almost compensate for that . And let 's face it , Tyrion is still a lecherous drunk and womaniser . He 's such a problematic character . I love Tyrion , I 'm definitely House Lannister , but I 'm tired of a lot of other type of people on Twitter telling me that this now makes up for decades and decades , if not centuries , of really negative representation . It does n't , it 's a drop in the ocean . SIMON - It 's hard for me to be impartial on this one , because obviously I 'm so deeply involved in it , and the personal choice bit has always been a point raised . The saddest thing about Verne , it seemed like he had a very unhappy life , and a lot of the actors that play these roles , when you scrape they say , " We do n't want to do this , we want to be doing mainstream roles , we want to be doing other work where our height 's incidental , " but they 're still funnelled into that point . So it is a choice that they actually do it , but they do n't seem to get a lot of choice of other things that they could do . EUGENE- I do n't know how this influences Hollywood , but academic research shows that there 's often a structure of low expectations and people being put off their ambitions , and that might well influence Hollywood as well . I ca n't see any reason why it would n't if it infiltrates other spheres of life . SIMON - We have a clip . Verne did speak independently on his own YouTube channel and came across as a sort of fully rounded human being , as he would be ... KATE - And he had two million subscribers , so that 's not a small audience that he was playing to either . Let 's listen to this clip where Verne is showing people around his house . And I think he 's showing them his car . clip Verne Troyer As you can see , I have a big pillow that I sit on , and then if you can look underneath I have extensions coming up off the pedals up to my feet so I drive just like everybody else . I actually took this out on a racetrack and raced it around the track , just to show people that I can drive , because there 's a lot of questions and people wondering if I can drive . And obviously , yeah , I can . So this is my baby right now , and I 'll show you the others . Let me go ahead and show you my boat . SIMON - He clearly was paid very well was n't he ? A boat and a car . EUGENE- A BBC salary , right ? SIMON - Well , we 'll bring in some of our guests . Have you come across the Mini-Me character ? How do you feel about this , or is this not on your radar ? JONNY - It 's something actually I 've never thought about but I completely agree . It reminds me of portrayals of schizophrenia because obviously I have a form of schizophrenia and I get frustrated with the portrayals of schizophrenia on screen . It 's like come on , change the record now , there 's millions of people out there living with schizophrenia , functioning , doing well . I mean we had ' The Beautiful Mind ' and that was a great film with Russell Crowe , but that 's it , that 's the only positive portrayal of schizophrenia that I can think of . You know , you 've got everything from ' One Flew Over the Cuckoo 's Nest ' to ' Girl Interrupted ' . These portrayals are so , just very negative , very negative . So I kind of really relate to what you 're saying and it is frustrating , it 's very frustrating because it 's not accurate at all . SIMON - Liz ? LIZ - Funnily enough on this trip to the US recently the film , ' Austin Powers ' was playing when I was changing channels . And I was n't aware that I was going to be on the show with you today , Eugene , but I actually found it quite uncomfortable to watch . The scenes with Mini-Me , I think he was shot up in the air on a chair in this particular scene and it just feels now incredibly wrong and kind of disrespectful to ... the way that that body is being shown . SIMON - There 's a phrase ... Lisa Hammond , who we talked about , is an actor , and she turns down a lot of these roles , and she said , " I do n't want to be a warm prop . " LIZ - A warm prop , exactly . EUGENE- I love that phrase . KATE - Do you think ' Austin Powers ' and Mini-Me would be made today ? Do you think that would be acceptable ? EUGENE - I can see no reason why ... I mean ' Wolf of Wall Street ' was not that long ago , I can see no reason why at all . And let 's not forget , ' Austin Powers ' grossed over $3m worldwide and it was nominated for numerous awards . I mean if you were a money grabbing film producer , who would n't want to recreate that ? SIMON - Lucy , your thoughts on Mini-Me , or even wider , or maybe children ? LUCY - I hear what Eugene says and I 've enjoyed some of the stuff he 's written about this , and particularly for me , the point that he made about he wants to see people who are remarkably diverse and doing ordinary things like reading the news . And that really chimed with me , Eugene , I thought yes , that 's where I stand on lots of other issues like LGBT issues . We 're going through a phase now where in the media , people who are different are being represented , but the difference is part of their character is n't it ? It 's built into the storyline , whereas if we move past that phase and they are just there doing their thing , that would be wonderful . SIMON - You 're nodding , Eugene ? EUGENE- I would love a day where the dwarf body is unremarkable , where you 're neither a superhero nor are you Dopey or Doc , it 's just unremarkable . SIMON - What about an athlete ? EUGENE - A marksperson . Yes , why not ? SIMON - Forgive my quick joke in there but the closest I 've ever come to that is when I go to the conventions in America for short people and there 's 2,000 of us and we spend a week somewhere . Within about three or four days the rest of that city , wherever we are , are bored of us . They 're absolutely bored of us , because we 're everywhere and it becomes ' normal ' , in inverted commas . But that 's one week of the year . And I have to fly to a different country . KATE - You 've recently moved up to the north . Do you find a difference in how you 're perceived or welcomed in the north rather than the south within the UK ? EUGENE- This is going to be ... All my northern followers are going to unfollow me in one fell swoop . Yes , 100% absolutely . KATE - In what way ? EUGENE- And so we moved , my better half and I , and she has dwarfism as well , we moved in the summertime up north from London and the amount of abuse that I/we have received in six , seven , eight months , I think would probably already be five , six , seven years in London . KATE - And what does that look like to you ? EUGENE- I can give you some examples . The other day I walked past a group of teenage girls who immediately started shouting how they were scared of people like me , they 're scared of them , but in a way that did n't give me any reason to believe that they were genuinely sort of phobic or anything , if they were doing this for attention . I walked past a group of men the other day who were shouting about give me a tenner to kick myself in the head . We had people shout at us when we were moving the car the other night . We were out in a bar the other night and suddenly a group of men are like , " Look at the midgets , look at the midgets , " when we were just trying to enjoy a drink . The other day I was followed very closely by a man who was filming me - he brought his daughter along which was great - filming me , and when I told him not to , he followed me quite closely , which was quite intimidating . I could go on . SIMON - So I 'm thinking about the mental health and the breadth of this , and shortly after Verne died , Tom Shakespeare , who 's a short person as well , he 's an academic , put something up , saying , " I 've had moments where having dwarfism has just been so exhausting and I 've wondered if life is worth it . " And I love the fact that he said it and then amazingly people were liking it very openly . I do n't know where you want to go with this , Eugene , but this must have impacted on you and how do you ... ? There 's resilience . KATE - Well having this abuse must impact your mental health . EUGENE- Absolutely . I mean I have a Twitter account and I often tweet the abuse that I get on my commute and I start with " I have dwarfism . Today my commute included ... " The reason why I do it , I always get an outpouring of sympathy which is lovely , but the reason why I do it is to kind of try and shine a light on how prejudice affects your daily life . And I often say that prejudice does n't need to be big or extreme , and we 've talked about violence in the show , but it does n't need to be big or extreme , it just needs to be little and constant enough to just chip away slowly at you day after day after day . And then what frustrated me , to bring this back to Verne Troyer , after he died , what you saw , and you saw this with Stephen Hawking as well , suddenly this person 's disability or their difference , for which they encountered so many barriers , is suddenly removed . And then ' a big man in heaven ' or ' they 're free from their wheelchair ' , but that 's only done after they 've died . KATE - But what is your toolkit for managing the abuse that you get to keep your mental health in check ? EUGENE- Well at the moment , I was talking to my better half about this the other day , and she was talking about how much she walks around with headphones on listening to music and that kind of shuts you out from a lot of the outside world . I did this the other day and my commute was a lot nicer , but there 's part of me that kind of does that and also does n't want to very much . JONNY - Can I ask a question ? Do you react to it ? Like when you get that abuse , do you respond to it or do you just kind of block it out , or how do you respond to it ? EUGENE- A good question . It varies completely . Sometimes I 've got the perfect wittiest response , sometimes I can educate , sometimes I just want to go hurting people . JONNY - Yes of course you do , of course . EUGENE- Sometimes I feel like crying . Sometimes I just ignore it . Sometimes I crumble . One of the things that irritates me is that I often feel like there 's a pressure on dwarf and disabled people to have the perfect response and to be like witty and educational and ... Because also , do n't forget though , that often these instances are public and so you 've got witnesses . And so not only do you have to try to come back to the person who 's done this , you have to educate everyone who 's watching and that 's a huge pressure . And it 's not on dwarf and disabled people to be your kind of educational experience , it 's too much pressure . JONNY - Do other people get involved as well ever ? Do other people fight your corner ? EUGENE- Very rarely . Very , very rarely . A few times it 's happened and I 've really appreciated that , but it 's very rarely . Sometimes what happens is if you get a group of people and one of them is an absolute nightmare , incredibly abusive to you and you get the sort of nice friend person who is in that group who then apologises or gets them to shut up or something like that . But they definitely stay friends afterwards , whereas if one of my friends did that it would end right there . JONNY - Of course . SIMON - There are quite a few ... I 'm thinking of Sin ? ad Burke , there 's two or three other women and there 's a group of you who are doing some great stuff . EUGENE- Will there be change ? I think so , but I think change is slower and more complicated than people think . And you 've got activists like Melissa Thompson and Rebecca Cokley , Cara Reedy , and you 've got John Young , who is a teacher who runs marathons , who is the first short person to ever complete the Ironman triathlon , he did a huge piece in the media recently for the Boston Marathon . So you are getting that , but it 's slow and it 's complicated . A single show like ' Game of Thrones ' does n't change the world . It should be the first of many . SIMON - Thank you , Eugene . Please can you join the others on our sofa ? We do n't have a sofa , I do n't know why I 've said that . laughter Please stay with us while we speak to Niamh who 's one of the Ouch team who 's got a roundup of other disability news . So Niamh , if I say #hotpersoninawheelchair ... ? NIAMH - Niamh says Kate Monaghan . Obviously . KATE - Yes . NIAMH - Guys , seriously . Okay , so this is a hashtag that came about a couple of weeks ago but it 's got a bit of a back story to it , it 's a bit weird . So four years ago a former American game show contestant called Ken Jennings , he was a contestant on ' Jeopardy ' . Anyone ? Yeah ? Okay , so he posted the following tweet . " Nothing sadder than a hot person in a wheelchair . " This original tweet then resurfaced last Sunday when American YouTuber , Annie Segarra , also known as Annie Elainey , she adapted it so that it read , " Hot person in a wheelchair , " and then she completed her retort with this little caption that said , " Cry about it babe . " And it was so good . She had a picture of herself and she was wearing this little pleated skirt . She basically looked like she 'd walked out of the movie , ' Heathers ' , it was great . And she had a really good pose on her and her response received , I think nearly 400 retweets and around 3,000 likes , and throughout the week got a fantastic response from around the world . Because what was great was the hashtag really caught on , it went viral , and this hashtag got a tidal wave of stunning photographs , some of them were really , really gorgeous , but then you have everything from people who were quite heavily made up and they 've got really cool dresses on , they 've got their hair done , everything from that down to people just wearing trackie bottoms and a t-shirt . SIMON - So , lukewarm in a wheelchair . laughter NIAMH - It depends on how you want to see it I suppose . But I suppose it just really continued a conversation about our attitudes towards disability and beauty I suppose , about how they can kind of be seen as mutually exclusive I guess . SIMON - Did you put a picture up of yourself ? KATE - I did not put a picture up , but I said , " There 's nothing sadder for you because you are not hot enough to get with this . " EUGENE- Nice . SIMON - Did you really ? KATE - I did . Yes , my friend . laughter SIMON - Now , not connected , are men allowed to do it or is it just exclusive ? NIAMH - Oh yeah , there were plenty of blokes doing it as well . Yeah , plenty , plenty . NIAMH - Thank you . I call it my Andrew McCarthy jacket because I feel like I 'm in ' Pretty in Pink ' . KATE - Could you stand up so we can have a proper look at this ? NIAMH - Yeah . KATE - So it 's a grey jacket she 's sporting with blue ... SIMON - Check . KATE - Check . NIAMH - Yes , but I 'm referring to my lapel . KATE - Oh , sorry , sorry . NIAMH - Yeah , I 'm referring to my lapel . I have actually been sitting here the entire time with this on . Have you noticed ? KATE - Yes . SIMON - Yes . NIAMH - You have noticed ? Okay . JONNY - Yes . NIAMH - Okay , good , because it 's a seamless segue into the next story . Last week was a priority seating week , or a priority seat week , to mark a year since the launch of the Please Offer Me a Seat badges . SIMON - We had the launch on the show did n't we ? KATE - We did . I was one of the first people to get one and I went and trialled it on the tube to see whether or not it worked . NIAMH - And ? KATE - And it did work . I got a seat and I 've kept my badge ever since and pop it on , and those days when I just do n't want to actually ask somebody I just sort of do a little motion towards the badge and it works quite well . SIMON - So a year later ? What 's the sort of research , what do they say ? NIAMH - So the general consensus is that it 's working fairly well , but it 's not always . I 've personally had a couple of experiences where I 've seen someone wearing a badge and I have intervened . But I suppose that 's because people are looking at books and ... KATE - What do you mean by you 've intervened ? NIAMH - I 've said to the person , " Do you want me to help you find a seat ? " And I feel a little bit awkward about doing so , but I sort of prod someone and say , " Hey , do you mind offering this person your seat ? " KATE - And so you have a disability yourself ? NIAMH - I do , I have congenital hemiplegia . KATE - Okay , so do you need to be wearing the badge ? Do you need a seat ? NIAMH - I do n't wear it , I prefer to stand to be honest . I like being able to sort of challenge myself to say right , I will be able to hold my balance . And it does help me improve my balance . SIMON - I understand that , as an athlete . laughter KATE - Why do people keep laughing ? So you have n't been in the awkward situation where you 've had a seat , you 've seen someone with a badge , and then you 're saying to somebody else , " Oh , get up . " NIAMH - Oh no , I have given it up before . KATE - No , but you 're not asking somebody else to give it up , because I have been in that situation where ... KATE - Simon , stop it . But I 've been in the situation where I 've been sat down , seen someone with a badge and said to the person next to me , " Would you mind getting up to give this person a seat ? " and then I 've realised , they 're like why do n't you give your seat up , you lazy woman ? And because I have n't had my badge on because I had a seat . So yeah , that 's always an awkward one . SIMON - Also , I thought the whole point of the badge is that you do n't have to have four people getting involved . Someone sees the badge and they give up the seat . I have heard some people , they give up the seat and then the person says , " Oh , what have you got then ? " And then you start this whole conversation about ... Is the general consensus it 's a good thing , it 's just a bit more prolonged there ? NIAMH - Yeah , general consensus is that it 's good . There 's a little bit of a way to go , not everyone was totally satisfied with it . SIMON - 30,000 people have got them ? NIAMH - 30,000 people , yeah , the vast majority of them I think are responding well to it , but that does n't mean that they walk onto a carriage and immediately five seats are offered to them . KATE - No . And I think it 's difficult , because when I did live in London often my commute would be at eight , nine o'clock in the morning on the Victoria Line which is rammed and the likelihood of getting a seat at those times , you know , it 's never going to work then . But I like it . SIMON - I think there 's a very valid point , it 's a start , and well done , this is great , and it 's for a specific group as well I think . KATE - Yeah , it 's for people who have hidden ... SIMON - Non-visible , yeah . KATE - Yeah , non-visible disabilities , that it really benefits . So for me when I go on the tube , when I 'm walking around it makes my life a lot easier . But what would make my life really easy is if I could have an accessible tube where I could use my wheelchair and get on and then I would n't have any of these problems at all . SIMON - Well , you 'd also bring your own seat . KATE - Exactly . Now , Liz Atkin is with us who is an artist who gives her pictures away for free to fellow tube passengers , and that 's your answer to your own hidden disability is n't it , Liz ? LIZ - It is , yes . KATE - This is so seamless . Whoever put this programme together , I mean they just deserve some kind of award because it 's just so impressive . LIZ - So yeah , my experience on the tube is often very challenging , so I 've kind of found a way to solve it , which is a bit peculiar maybe . KATE - Okay , so why do you have problems on the tube ? LIZ - I have a compulsive illness called dermatillomania , or compulsive skin picking and I suffer from anxiety quite badly , so I was struggling a lot commuting , because I would either have a panic attack and need to get off the train in a packed situation , but more prevalently I 'd be picking very badly on the train , because the condition is quite a challenging thing when I 'm sedentary . So I 'd pick my fingers very badly and they 'd be kind of bleeding by the time I get to work . And it was driving me crazy really . I 've had the condition since I was very young , so it 's quite a complex disorder and this kind of weird solution came out of running out of a sketchbook on my journey and picking up a free paper which was on the seat next to me . KATE - So did you take a sketchbook on the journey in the first place ? LIZ - I did . It became a way to sort of just relax and refocus and it kind of was an accident . So I did n't train as an artist , actually my background 's in dance , so I 've come to this quite late in my life . So about five years ago I was quite unwell with mental health problems and I had a lot of time off work , and yes , my skin picking had come back very , very badly , so I was in a lot of distress . And then I got a job in north London so I was commuting , kind of a two hour commute , and as we 've talked about , the tube is a very challenging thing for a lot of us , but if you have a sort of challenging issue that can present itself in a packed tube it 's quite a hard thing to cope with . And it was causing me a lot of distress and I started carrying a little sketchbook to just kind of draw in while I was commuting . And I was finding that drawing was a good solution to the anxiety , it would just kind of settle me and calm me down . And of course drawing , my hands are very occupied , so the skin picking was kind of quietened . And then one day my sketchbook ran out and I had another hour and a half ahead of me and it was a packed tube in rush hour and I felt the panic attack rising , I looked at my fingers and I was picking my fingers and I thought , I need to draw , I need to do this now . And I grabbed the newspaper that was next to me and I thought well , I 'll just doodle on it , you know like you do when you 're on the phone or anything . I did n't think of it as some grand idea . And I doodled on it and I left it on the seat and I took a photo of it and now that is something I do every day . SIMON - And you give ? LIZ - And now I give the drawings away to passengers . SIMON - Do they know you 're drawing them or are you drawing something completely ... ? LIZ - I 'm drawing over the images that are in the paper , so anything , the picture of a celebrity , an advert , the way that a bit of copy is placed on the page becomes something I 'll graffiti . And I draw with charcoal so it 's very messy . Part of that is that once I 'm messy I ca n't pick my body , I ca n't kind of touch my face or pick my fingers . And charcoal has a very grainy texture to it so that really sort of connects with the feeling of the disorder , it 's quite a tactile disorder . SIMON - And art therapy 's an idea but you kind of created your own . LIZ - It 's kind of art therapy . I kind of created my own . And I 've given away a huge number of these things . So on a busy day I do about 60 . KATE - 60 ? LIZ - So I 've given away more than 16,000 drawings . SIMON - How do people react ? LIZ - Well , basically this did n't start as something deliberate , so I started realising they were accumulating on my lap because I 'd pick up a couple of newspapers and then I 'd have a few of them that I 'd been drawing on . So to start with I was n't bold enough to have eye contact with anybody , and I knew people were looking , I could feel it , but I started sort of leaving them on the seat and just scribbling , ' free art , please take it ' , this is like four years ago , and then slowly it 's evolved into knowing that there 's a person directly opposite me who 's looking and wondering what 's going on . So I started just leaning forward and saying , " Would you like this ? " And to start with people do n't know what to do . There 's often a kind of , " No , thank you , " you know , people shut down and a lot of what we 've just talked about with the kind of tube issues , people are n't kind of very aware , they 're on their technology , they 're looking at their phones , they 're reading a book , they 've got their music on . And it 's quite an odd thing I 'm doing I guess that people then sort of look across and wonder . KATE - Do you explain why you 're drawing ? LIZ - Yes . I started carrying a postcard about two years ago , because also , you know , I realise that I 'm drawing because I have this condition that a lot of people do n't know what it is , so I thought well to ... And a bit like Eugene was saying earlier , that a conversation might start in a public place and people are then engaged . So I then thought , well there 's ten or 12 people , or probably more in rush hour , that are crushed around me wondering why I 'm drawing , I could be telling them , " I 'm drawing because I 've got a mental health condition and this is what 's helping me . " But also , getting people to join in , because then I realised that that can be a message that reaches lots of other people . So more recently , or in the last couple of years , there are often people that are in the carriage that have the condition and do n't even know it has a name . So it 's in the family of kind of OCD conditions , so people with the hair pulling disorder , which is called trichotillomania , it often gets a lot more press . People have heard of that , you know , if you pull your hair out because you 're stressed or you 're anxious people have often heard of that . People often do n't know that skin picking , aside from it being like a general thing that all humans do , can be a really complex and challenging mental health problem . So I realise that if I give a postcard out with this drawing , somebody in the carriage might have it . And I now know the statistic of one in 25 might suffer from these conditions . And I get emails every day and messages every day . KATE - Well if you 're giving 60 away and it 's one in 25 , it 's got to be a high hit rate . LIZ - It 's a high hit rate . KATE - Have you ever had any sort of bad reactions to it ? LIZ - Yes , oh yes . I 've had charcoal snatched out of my hand and thrown to the ground , people accuse me of littering , people call it dirty . Yes , of course . Humans are challenging as well as being kind . So there have been situations that have been really bad and Eugene was talking about this as well , in that often people do n't intervene or support , so that becomes a moment of this is a political thing where I could actually say , " This is my stuff and I 'm doing it here and I 'm not trying to sell something or impose this on anybody 's lives , it 's just something I 'm doing right here . " SIMON - So if someone picks up a mobile phone and it starts getting towards me I immediately think they 're going to take a photo of me , and I 'm really on edge . So I can imagine some people might go , oh what 's she doing about me ? So you have to kind of almost break that . Do you ever tell them while you 're doing it , this is why ... ? LIZ - Yes , absolutely . SIMON - Yeah , okay . LIZ - And wonderful conversations happen . The person sitting next to me that I know , you know , you can feel if someone 's reading over your shoulder when you 're on your phone or whatever . KATE - I love doing that to people . LIZ - I feel that , it 's very ... People are nosy , right ? And if I feel that I know that 's a person who 's wondering , what is this woman doing ? So very quietly I smile and I just pass them the postcard . A lot of people , they gesture , no thanks , kind of thing , so then the person opposite will be looking so I 'll give them a postcard and then I 've got a load in my hand so then it becomes clear , oh , you 're giving out postcards . So then people are more willing to take a postcard . And that 's enough for five or six people around me to then have read it and then be looking back and wondering , oh right , you 're drawing because of this thing called skin picking . And then someone normally speaks to me and that means that all these people are going , " Oh right , so how often do you do this ? " you know , that 's the first question . " Do you do this all the time ? " And then I can say , " Well actually , this is my kind of recovery tool , this is what I do when I 'm travelling , it really helps me . " And then that little group of people might go away and say , " I saw this woman drawing because she 's got a mental health problem , " and that 's a bit of advocacy that is free . SIMON - We mentioned this at the top of the show , you 're here to tell us about the international conference you 've been to in the United States about hair pulling and skin picking . When you met other people with ... you know , in this family , at the conference , did lots of people have their own mechanisms ? Does anyone have the same as you ? LIZ - Well , I was sort of sharing that as a tool because the condition at the moment , there 's no cure for it , you ca n't get a pill that 's going to stop it necessarily . Some people respond to medication very well , other people do n't , so at the moment , the reason the conference is so significant at this point is they 're doing a big study in the States about why humans have these conditions . So it 's everywhere in the animal kingdom as well as humans , you know , parrots that pull out their feathers , cats and dogs that bite at their bodies , mice that pull their fur out , fish that pick off their scales with their mouths , this is everywhere in the animal kingdom . So grooming can become a kind of overactive thing and they 're not quite sure how to intervene to stop it . So lots of things exist on the market to kind of help people with these conditions . So tactile toys like squeezy toys , or those kind of clicker fidget toys , those sorts of things are really useful because they occupy your hands . The conditions are very repetitive , so it 's all about the movement of my fingers and my hands . So drawing is a good solution for that because I can reoccupy it in a different way . NIAMH - Speaking of mess , it did occur to me as you were speaking , Liz , as you started talking about the charcoal and the mess , I thought if you have it in your pocket all the time how often do you accidently wash it ? LIZ - Very often . laughs Actually the worse thing is that I have to put all my dark wash in together as most of us do , but often there are a few bits of charcoal just rattling around the bottom of the washing machine at the end of the wash . KATE - I 'm looking at you and I ca n't see any sign that you have a condition of this kind . LIZ - Exactly . KATE - Is it that you hide it well or is it that you are now quite recovered and it 's under control ? LIZ - It 's a bit of both and this is something to talk about . Basically the condition is complex , as a mental health condition I would hide the condition from everyone , so actually my arms and my back and my chest and my feet , my knees , would be very , very badly picked . I 'd have open wounds under my clothes all the time . I 'd pick my face very badly so I would be able to cover that up with makeup , but often these conditions are hidden , they 'd be under my clothes so how why would you know ? The only kind of outward sign of it now is probably that I still struggle with my fingers and I do pick my fingers , but the body picking has really reduced massively by finding this way to look after myself . It 's important . KATE - Now , there 's no music to end on this week , but we do have one last thing to tell you about before we go . Is anyone around the table a ' Britain 's Got Talent ' fan ? NIAMH - I 've watched it . Oh look , it 's gone very quiet in here . KATE - It 's lovely Saturday night entertainment . SIMON - I 'm with you . These things are great , these are good ones . We 're going to change their minds . KATE - Yeah . It goes against the grain to plug a programme that 's not on a BBC channel obviously , but there are now two disabled acts taking part , so if you 're not watching you really should be . SIMON - One of the acts is comedian , Lee Ridley , also known as Lost Voice Guy , who you may have heard , he was on last month 's podcast . KATE - As well as a few before that as well . SIMON - That is , we are ahead of the curve . KATE - And the other one is a dance group called Rise . One of the group 's members is a 13 year old who was injured in the Ariana Grande gig bombing in Manchester and she 's a wheelchair user as a result . SIMON - And the rest of the group , there 's this lovely story , she wants to go back to dance with them , they 're saying , " What are we going to do ? " What the rest of the group do is get into wheelchairs and started doing the whole dance routine so it becomes part of it . KATE - Well , they use wheelchairs as props do n't they , but not in a cringy way and actually like a really cool way and she gets up and dances and then she sits back down . At the audition stage the judges and the studio audience raved about it . clip Simon Cowell And the fact that you can come onstage , do what you did , and make such a positive statement and with your friends , I 'm very proud of you . In fact , I salute you . applause But we 've still got to vote . Amanda Holden David ? David Walliams I 'm going to say yes ! Alesha Dixon It 's a yes from me , girls ! Amanda Holden It 's a yes from me . KATE - But the golden buzzer was n't sounded , so we do n't know ... SIMON - makes buzzing noise KATE - So we do n't know for sure if they 're in the live semi-finals , but it 's really worth watching , it really is . SIMON - Well , hopefully we 'll have a little bit more news on next month 's podcast , so come back and listen to us more . KATE - And that 's it for this month . Thanks to our guests , Jonny Benjamin , Lucy Rycroft-Smith , Eugene Grant and Liz Atkin . Your production team today have been Niamh Hughes and Beth Rose and the studio manager is Robbie Heyward , the producer was Daniel Gordon . SIMON - Please contact us . You can tweet @bbcouch , email ouch@bbc.co.uk or find us on Facebook . And do n't forget , there is a podcast on this feed every week , including the return of the autistic takeover with Robyn , Jamie and Lion . We love them . |

Lee Bowyer accused Shrewsbury of time-wasting and claimed Carlton Morris should have been sent off after watching Charlton lose 1-0 in the first leg of their Sky Bet League One play-off semi-final . Jon Nolan 's fine 80th-minute strike gave the Shrews a crucial advantage ahead of Sunday 's second leg at the Montgomery Waters Meadow Stadium , where Bowyer insists his Addicks will recover and reach the Wembley final . Shrewsbury had delayed play in the first half while Charlton had regularly threatened , and after Morris remained on the pitch following a challenge on Jason Pearce that the hosts ' interim manager felt should have been a second yellow card , they secured their winning goal . " They were wasting time , taking five minutes to take a goal-kick at the beginning , " said Bowyer . " The game 's only just starting and they 're wasting time . " I do n't believe in doing things like that . If you 're winning 1-0 with 10 minutes to go then I understand it -- not from the beginning @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but it is what it is . That was their game plan . " The referee ( Simon Hooper ) could have done a hell of a lot more on a lot more occasions . How that Morris never got sent off is beyond me . " He nearly took Patrick Bauer 's head off , and then he comes and takes ( Jason ) Pearce out -- yellow card . " The ref did well apart from that but he could have hurried the keeper up . " The amount of time-wasting they were doing , and they still only put up four minutes ( of stoppage time ) . I do n't get it . " I 'm new to this so it 's even more frustrating -- at least when you 're on the pitch you can actually ask while you 're there . " Then the fourth official ( Andy Davies ) just keeps agreeing with me , which makes it even worse , because I 'm thinking , ' Why ca n't you tell him then ? If you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's not about the refs , it 's about two teams trying to get to Wembley . " There 's a long way to go yet , still 90 minutes to play . We went up there not so long ago and won by two . " I told ( my team ) , ' You did n't deserve to lose ' . That 's my honest opinion . My side is still better than their side . They beat us but my team is better . We will go there on Sunday and turn things around . " Shrewsbury manager Paul Hurst was asked about Bowyer 's comments , and he responded : " I 'm surprised . He 's a very , very experienced player , now manager . " We were never going to come and rush things when you 've got 180 minutes to play . I 've seen teams do a hell of a lot worse . " Asked how wary he was of the threat still posed by Charlton , who only last month visited them and won 2-0 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more than anybody , individual players , on the bench or starting , who can produce a bit of magic out of anything .

Jamie Oliver today attacked Theresa May 's record on childhood obesity as Mayor Sadiq Khan announced a ban on junk food adverts on the Tube , buses and trams across London . TV chef and food campaigner Oliver said the Prime Minister needed to deliver a strategy to significantly reduce the number of overweight youngsters in Britain , and urged her to " take politics " out of tackling children 's health . Today 's announcement by the Mayor comes after Oliver called for a ban on junk food adverts on the Tube in an interview in the Standard this month . London will become the second city in Europe to introduce such a measure on public transport , after Amsterdam , which has since seen a drop in obesity rates among children . Oliver said Mrs May could order a nationwide ban on junk food adverts on transport , extend the sugar tax to milkshakes and unhealthy smoothies , and outlaw junk food TV adverts before the 9pm watershed . He blasted the Government 's 13-page obesity strategy , released in 2016 , as a " piece of shit " -- and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " if a more detailed plan is not delivered later this summer . The Government is due to release chapter two of its obesity strategy soon . Chapter one was criticised for watering down David Cameron 's plans to curb TV adverts for junk food . " I 've been through five Prime Ministers now , " Oliver said . " I worked with Mr Blair on creating standards for kids ' school food when there was no standards , when there was standards for dog food . It 's all about ego , not wanting to have too many fights . This is the time for Mrs May to break the habit and mantra . " He said a joint letter from Labour 's Jeremy Corbyn , Lib Dem Sir Vince Cable and Green Party leaders asking the PM to ban TV adverts for unhealthy food before 9pm showed there was unity and that " political jibber-jabber " had been " mopped out the way " . He added : " What I tried to do in the opposition letter is absolutely f***ing take politics @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their educational attainment at school . " She needs to be clear and bold and if we get it right it can seed a real cultural change . " Announcing the ban today , Mr Khan said : " It ca n't be right that in a city as prosperous as London , that where you live and the income you have can have a massive impact on whether you have access to healthy , nutritious food and your exposure to junk food advertising . " London has one of the highest child overweight and obesity rates in Europe . Children from poorer areas are disproportionately affected , with those in Barking and Dagenham almost twice as likely to be overweight as children from Richmond . A Department of Health and Social Care spokesman said : " There is no-where in the world setting more stringent sugar reformulation targets than this Government has set . As well as cutting sugar and calories in food , we are taxing sugary drinks , helping children to exercise more , funding research on junk food advertising and cutting sugar and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " We have been clear from the beginning that our plan is the start of a conversation and not the final word . We are monitoring progress closely and have not ruled out taking further action if the right results are not seen . " |

The Government is due to release chapter two of its obesity strategy soon . Chapter one was criticised for watering down David Cameron 's plans to curb TV adverts for junk food . " I 've been through five Prime Ministers now , " Oliver said . " I worked with Mr Blair on creating standards for kids ' school food when there was no standards , when there was standards for dog food . It 's all about ego , not wanting to have too many fights . This is the time for Mrs May to break the habit and mantra . " He said a joint letter from Labour 's Jeremy Corbyn , Lib Dem Sir Vince Cable and Green Party leaders asking the PM to ban TV adverts for unhealthy food before 9pm showed there was unity and that " political jibber-jabber " had been " mopped out the way " . He added : " What I tried to do in the opposition letter is absolutely f***ing take politics @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their educational attainment at school . " She needs to be clear and bold and if we get it right it can seed a real cultural change . " Announcing the ban today , Mr Khan said : " It ca n't be right that in a city as prosperous as London , that where you live and the income you have can have a massive impact on whether you have access to healthy , nutritious food and your exposure to junk food advertising . " London has one of the highest child overweight and obesity rates in Europe . Children from poorer areas are disproportionately affected , with those in Barking and Dagenham almost twice as likely to be overweight as children from Richmond . A Department of Health and Social Care spokesman said : " There is no-where in the world setting more stringent sugar reformulation targets than this Government has set . As well as cutting sugar and calories in food , we are taxing sugary drinks , helping children to exercise more , funding research on junk food advertising and cutting sugar and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " We have been clear from the beginning that our plan is the start of a conversation and not the final word .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'gets out of playing the game' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the player's experience and emotions derived from playing the game, which is not the intended meaning of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Frostpunk , developed by 11 Bit Studios in Poland , blends city-building , crisis management , survival , and society simulation in a grim and frozen apocalypse . It 's a tense and harrowing experience that explores just how far you 'll go to protect your citizens and give them hope for the only thing more uncertain than the present : the future . I recently spoke over Skype with Frostpunk lead designer Kuba Stokalski , project lead and lead artist Lukasz Juszczyk , and senior designer Marta Fijak about the game 's development , art , the book of laws , and real-world inspirations . PC Gamer : So I guess I 'd like to start with the original idea for the game , the inception of the game . What was the first spark that eventually led to Frostpunk ? Kuba Stokalski : Well , I think it was actually a couple of things coming together . It was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a really big hit , and after it landed and it changed basically the playing field for the company , we knew that we would have to come up with something that ... we knew we did n't want to do a sequel . Because This War of Mine was a special kind of experience , but at the same time we felt that this was something that resonated with the players , the meaningfulness of the themes in the game and the seriousness of the tone , so we were looking for things that would go along these lines . But at the same time we wanted to make a bigger game and follow up with something on a bigger scale , and basically things converged on merging survival gameplay with city building gameplay , and what we knew from the pretty early days of the project was that we wanted to make a game on a bigger scale , in terms of these serious themes , and that meant going up from the scale of individuals to the levels of societies . So , there 's this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the limits of the boundaries that people are willing and unwilling to cross when faced with questions of survival on a societal scale , was what drove the project from the very beginning . And with all these different elements in it -- like you said you 've got survival , there 's resource management , there 's society management , it has a bit of a strategy feel to it too at times -- how was it trying to balance all these different elements so that one does n't completely overshadow the others ? Kuba : The trick is that we are not ... well , that is actually a staple of 11-Bit Studios in that we are n't really that concerned with genre , or the specifics of it . We know we want to make a game in the vein of a genre that we have in mind , but what we are really after is an experience , and the feelings and emotions that the player gets out of playing the game , and that 's what drags our decisions . So whether @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tech tree or society decisions in the book of laws or coming up with the art style , we are always asking ourselves whether these things converge on the central themes of the game , like asking the big questions about survival , of the limits of survival and what a society is capable of . So it 's obviously an iterative process and heavily so , and this unique blend comes out of it , in service of the themes of the game , not the other way around . I found it interesting that , usually from a city-building standpoint where you have citizens , you do kind of get a feel for their happiness . You guys went with two different meters : the hope meter and the discontent meter , and these are influenced by different things -- they can both be full and they can both be empty . What made you decide you were going to use these two specific meters for the society 's feelings and feedback ? When we did research about survival in harsh conditions , and what drew @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ capabilities , we found out that the most important thing was hope . Marta Fijak , senior designer Marta : From the very beginning , we knew that we wanted to have that society aspect , to show the mood of the society . So the discontent came quite naturally , because it comes from citizens ' needs and we knew that we wanted to represent the society as a group of individuals that create the whole thing , and not an abstract society model . So the discontent part was quite natural in the process of creation of society . And about the hope -- it actually came from the research . When we did research about survival in harsh conditions , and what drew people , what makes them survive except for the physical capabilities , we found out that the most important thing was hope , because we read stories about mountain climbing expeditions , about accidents , when people were able to crawl down from high altitudes , almost dying , but they had hope that they would survive . So this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ research process . So this is why we put it in the game because our people do n't have to just survive like animals , they need a reason to survive and this is what hope represents , and it played well with the themes that we wanted to show . Typically with city builders , a lot of them have scenarios where you have a certain situation and you need to get your way out of it , but they typically have an endless , open-ended format . When you were designing Frostpunk , was it always your vision that it would have an ending , that you would have a set period of time to accomplish your goals or did you consider at some point it could be an endless type of game too ? Kuba : Actually , it was n't really set in stone for quite a bit of development . We always knew that we wanted to tell a story about survival , so in general you have to survive something in the end , right , if it was about survival ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about whether it was an open-ended or closed-ended type of experience was n't really set in stone , and it actually came out really naturally from the format that we arrived at through iteration . We knew we wanted to end this the way a novel ends , not the way a typical sandbox experience of other city-builders is like . Kuba Stokalski , lead designer Basically , we had these different episodes of the main story scenario -- that the first is focused on the basic survival , the second one was more about the social fractures that sometimes pop up in difficult conditions and how you as a leader can tackle them . And then we had the ultimate test of the storm , and we felt that when you played through such a sequence of events , basically making tough decisions along the way , and after the final storm we had basically , " OK , so the sun comes up and it 's getting warm again and here : go build all these buildings . " That was actually anti-climatic , so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tough by making tough decisions , and by making sacrifices . This kind of climax did n't work , so we knew we wanted to end this the way a novel ends , not the way a typical sandbox experience of other city-builders is like . If we could talk about the book of laws -- I found this kind of an interesting system in the game . How did you start coming up with those and how did you pick those particular laws ? Marta : So , from the very beginning of development we knew that we wanted the player to be able to make up some decisions , to decide what to do , which way to go and how to shape this society . But in the early builds , it was coming mostly from your people , so during the playtime , a question would pop up because there was a situation and you as the leader should react and pick which law you want to enact . Over a longer period of time , you see that the sum of those @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Marta Fijak , senior designer And during the iterative process we found out that this is not the best way for the player because there is no player agency . He or she can not decide when he or she wants to make some laws , so from that point we knew we wanted to address that and started iterating on the book of laws . And what the book of laws gave us , it was an opportunity to put those laws in a sequence , and that was quite important because one of the topics we wanted to cover was creeping normality or the boiling frog syndrome , so that situation is that you are enacting small laws that do n't change much and are not extremely drastic , but over a longer period of time , you see that the sum of those parts makes something bigger and something more terrifying . And this is a situation that you can observe in life when a couple of total institutions or total situations are born , they are just going through that process of creeping normality . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ especially in the purpose tree , that all of them are put in order and every player should have a line in their head . We did n't put it there specifically because we do n't want to charge the player from a moral standpoint that this is a personal measure of belief , but every law should be a little bit more than the previous one . And for the adaptation tree , most of it came actually from gameplay and through historic research , like with sawdust in food -- that was a thing actually done in Russia and it 's still done in many places . The same was for the kids working in the Victorian era , so it was only natural to push that kind of law . So this is how we build that adaptation tree , but it also had in mind that little bit of creeping normality factor . So kind of like a slippery slope situation where I 'm making maybe a small compromise that 's against my personal morals or beliefs because I 'm hoping it will achieve @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bigger compromises on my part as a leader . Kuba : Yeah , that 's basically how Totalitarian states are born -- what the 20th century showed us and what 's still happening around the world in many places , and this is actually the small steps towards really unpleasant consequences , is what we wanted to show here . Yeah , at the end of the game I kind of felt myself feeling a little defensive . The game will not really judge you but point out some of these choices that you made and that they were n't really great ones , but I felt myself feeling I should justify it because , like , " Hey look at this end result , I survived , I saved people 's lives . " And it was kind of an interesting feeling to be trying to defend a lot of the pretty awful things I did . Kuba : Yeah . It 's a really nice thing that you say that , actually ! ( Laughs ) We actually get a lot of feedback now , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you get the end log sequence of the time-lapse of your city , and there 's a commentary on your choices , and there 's a question in one of the versions of the end logs that 's like : " Was the city worth it in the end ? " And many people came up with " Well , this seems like a pretty stupid question to ask because well , look : everyone survived , and what 's the other choice ? " Actually , that question sometimes pops up online , that the question that this game asks is whether there are situations when it 's worth surviving at all rather than sacrificing your humanity or your higher values . But we do n't want to answer that question . Exactly what you just described is what we wanted to basically ask , and make the player think for themselves . If we can talk some about the art -- it 's a really beautiful game in this kind of grim way . I wondered if we could talk about the art , the 1800s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you to that particular style of art ? Lukasz Juszczyk : You could think that the Victorian era had a major impact in our references but the truth is , we got most of our influences from the industrial structures as a whole , you know ? Of course we get some major architectural guidelines from the Victorian era like some characteristics of the buildings or specific window shapes or stuff like that . But you can find cool looking steel bridges everywhere there in the world , you know ? So yeah , our biggest inspiration was industrial buildings , from the industrial era around the world . And the choice of the engine used for this game , do you feel like that would work most for the art style or was it chosen for different reasons ? Lukasz : Yes , we work on our in-house engine , and it was a blessing because we did so many tricks , so many smoke and mirror things -- for example , building on the circular map or maybe if you notice some of the buildings @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ grid , and that was only possible on our engine . We 've got specific tools for our specific needs . What kind of lessons did you learn from This War of Mine that maybe shaped or influenced Frostpunk the most , would you say ? Kuba : Well , I 'd say that both games were about survival but the scale was much different . Coming into Frostpunk we knew that we made one really successful game about serious themes in the general survival type of genre , so we tried to use the same mindsets . But the difference of scale between having three people in your shelter and having 80 people to start with and ending up with hundreds was actually a whole other ball game . And we really had to do a lot of adapting from that , so I 'd say that what we knew thanks to making This War of Mine was general concepts like focusing on the experience , focusing on the themes that permeate the game rather than any particular implementation of a mechanic or whatever there is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of mindset that we had from This War of Mine that allowed us to , in the end , make this really weird connection of survival city-building scenario type narrative-driven society survival thing that Frostpunk is right now . And because of the mindset that we have thanks to This War of Mine , the experience itself and the themes that we wanted to convey are the guiding lights for us , and not any particular low level decision that we have to make millions of along the whole project . In terms of the general feeling of both of these games , there 's so much misery , these are not happy people or happy experiences . I found Frostpunk to be incredibly tense and I was very stressed -- Kuba : Sorry ! ( Laughs ) Ha ! No , but , there 's a real appeal in that , in some way to have an experience that is unhappy and miserable and upsetting at times . What do you think the draw is for players to want to immerse themselves in a really horrible @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of interesting choices , but what makes a choice interesting ? Kuba Stokalski , lead designer Kuba : Well , you know it 's been said sometimes about games , that games really are just power fantasies , that you end up being this powerful person or whatever doing unimaginable things , and obviously ... we obviously are opposed to that , making the games that we make . But I think there is some truth to that in that in the sense that games allow you to live through scenarios that are , thankfully , impossible in real life . But they actually let you play and interact with situations that you would never think of otherwise . And actually pulling through in a difficult scenario like this and having done this yourself against adversity but still achieving the goal , I think is actually a powerful experience in and of itself . But actually the more deeper meaning is , what I personally find fulfilling in making these types of games is that I really believe that these games can ask you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ What level did you grind today ? " or " What cool new bonus stat on your gun you got ? " They can actually make you think about things like what really is worthwhile in life , or what is the line that you would n't cross in any given situation , or moral dilemmas , and showcase these difficult situations and ask you basically : " How would you behave ? " Actually , one of the design tenets for the game that we have is actually that -- obviously , games are often framed as a series of interesting choices , but what makes a choice interesting ? And one of the ways we really like by making choices interesting is asking you whether you 're willing to sacrifice some of your morals , your ideals , or making this one step over the line , in exchange for a better outcome , goal-wise , for your scenario in the mechanics and in your situation within the game . So these are the types of questions and dynamics that are impossible in other media and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are actually the way forward if we want to talk about games being meaningful entertainment . So basically , things that are worth your time and making you look at the world in a different light . Yeah , and I think Frostpunk touches on some current real-world concerns . In probably two or three of the scenarios refugees are really a major issue , in fact one of the scenarios is a real challenge with the amount of refugees coming to the city . I think obviously there 's climate change themes ... were you hoping to maybe give people something to think about in respect to these current world topics ? Kuba : Yeah , definitely . The inspirations are all around us and basically what we think makes for interesting choices is whether these choices are relevant to you as a person , and one of the ways of making them relevant is actually making them contemporary in a way . It 's not necessarily the fact that it 's a fantasy scenario in a fictional world , but the same types of dynamics ... @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dynamics of societies and communities and what happens when you try to lead in one way versus the other , and this is basically the way for us to comment ... well , not comment but make you , the player , comment through the choices you make in the game on contemporary problems in today 's world . A major inspiration for us was the 19th Century . It was a period of social stratification with masses of the workers , the Luddites rebellion against the machines , and what happens today with artificial intelligence taking jobs , basically . These are really contemporary topics and we enjoyed exploring them because we think they are worthwhile , they are important , and to get people to think about them through our game , that 's really a cool thing for them and for us. |

This is Portugal 's first ever go at hosting the Eurovision Song Contest , having spent the last 50 years finishing no higher than 6th place . To say our hosts are revelling in the experience is an understatement . The cafes and bars are packed to capacity , the picturesque Pra ? a do Com ? rcio has been converted into a fan village , and every single tourist is eating pastel de nada for breakfast , brunch , lunch and tea . I 'm now more custard than man . Taking a break from the tarts , I sat backstage with UK Eurovision hopeful SuRie as she tucked into a much healthier dinner of greens , beans and fish . Knowing the answer , I asked her to share the one interview question she 's tired of hearing ... " Well , everyone 's gon na go there with Brexit , of course they 're gon na go there with Brexit , but it 's completely irrelevant to the contest ... " And she 's dead right . The average Hungarian housewife , Polish milkmaid or Buranovskiye babushki has even less comprehension @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Nobody watching from across Europe cares about Brexit but somehow it 's become part of the negative Eurovision narrative . Russia 's singer Julia Samoylova performs the song " I Wo n't Break " Getty Moldova 's group DoReDoS perform the song " My Lucky Day " AFP Demonstrated on Thursday by Michael Fabricant MP ( who 's interjections are as welcome as a wasp at a picnic ) , saying that he was dismayed Brexit did n't mean instant withdrawal from everyone 's favourite annual singing competition . Well he can naff off the next time he inevitably wheezes on about Remoaners not backing Britain . Be a FabriCAN not a FabriCA N'T . Unfortunately he 's not alone in his criticism . There 's a strange mix of British self-loathing , sniffiness and sarcasm that we manage to keep tucked away during the World Cup and Olympics , and reserve especially for the Eurovision Song Contest . No other statement induces a compulsion to jab at my own forehead with a tiny @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ effort to redress the balance a little , I wanted to share five genuine , valid reasons as to why the UK has struggled at Eurovision in recent years ... and here they are : 1 ) A Million Voices ... Eurovision is now HUGE . What started out as a friendly competition between 14 nations has ballooned to the point where we 're now competing against 42 other countries - many of which use this as their time to shine . Malta and Cyprus are never gon na set the world alight with the football teams or Olympians , but they do have a knack for knocking out ballads and bangers ( as Eleni Foureira will prove on Saturday night ) . When you 're 1 of 43 you do n't necessarily have to win to be successful . For San Marino and Slovenia , managing to navigate their way out the semis is akin to victory . For us , as auto-qualifiers , there should be a sliding measure of success : how we fare against the other Big 5 and aiming to place on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 10 placing would be great . Top 5 incredible . With Monaco , Morroco , Turkey and Liechtenstein eyeing returns , and Kosovo and Kazakhstan knocking at the door , it 's likely that Eurovision will only get bigger and trickier to triumph at . 2 . Party For Everybody ... in whatever language they choose . Since 1999 , when the EBU scrapped the rule that songs must be performed in one of the official languages of the country participating , the UK has performed less well . Now that all the contestants can sing in English should they so wish ( and many do n't ) there 've only been three non-English language winners since the turn of the century . Portugal was one of them last year . For the UK and Ireland , singing in English was our trump card during the nineties . 3 . Et s'il fallait le faire ... the semi finals . If you 've not watched a Eurovision Grand Final for a few years , the first thing you 'll notice is the insane increase @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ much harder to win . Once upon a time you could get away with sending whatever nonsense you 'd like and it 'd still be shown on the Saturday night - eh , Portugal ? Before the first semi-final was introduced in 2006 there was simple a qualification system of taking turns dependant on how well you 'd done in previous years , or how much money you were willing to pump into the competition . This is no longer the case . What many casual viewers might not realise is there 's a massive behind-the-scenes rehearsal process that semi-finalists have to take part in that ultimately benefits those countries by generating buzz and press . Swedish winner , M ? ns Zelmerl ? w , made the point that he felt he 'd been competing for weeks before the Grand Final ( having won the Swedish selection competition , Melodifestivalen , that had started three months prior ) and that every performance between February and his win was an opportunity to both showcase and polish Heroes . We 're missing out on that as the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ That Song Again ... all killer , no filler . Back in 2000 there was a sticker on the CD for Nicki French 's UK entry that said : " Back Britain - Buy French " . Heh . Loreen 's 2012 euro-thumper Euphoria charted at #3 in the UK ... our song that year was Engelbert Humperdinck 's Love Will Set You Free limping in at #60 . Though we have had some recent successes . Jade Ewen finished 5th in 2009 , and it 's also worth noting that sometimes we do well in the jury vote over the phone vote ( and vice versa ) before scores are combined . Blue 's 2011 entry I Can would have placed 5th had scores been dished out on phone votes alone . 5 . Samo Shampioni ... you need a champion . Eurovision winners have something special about them . They 're not simply given a cassette from Pete Waterman 's clutter drawer and pushed into the spotlight ... Josh Dubovie aside . The great champs love their song , have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sell the garment . I asked Eurovision 2014 champion Conchita Wurst what she thought made a Eurovision winner ... " In Austria we had not won for over 60 years , so we 're really not those to give any advice . But I guess it 's really , so many different things you need , but you need to have a song that the artist is 100% feeling . You really have to deliver it and you really have to live it . You must find an artist who really knows what she or he wants . " And that 's the crux of it . We 've sent some amazingly professional artists of late but when was the last time we sent a genuine auteur like Isreal 's Netta ? Or Ukraine 's Jamala ? We need someone that gets a kick out of performing and knows how to put on a show . We 're serving oodles of professional polish but lacking in passion and creativity . Conchita goes on : " If you 're an artist and you have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have a team that is supporting what you think is right and not what they think is right . Be supportive and show them the right direction but essential things have to come from the artist , the song , even if they do n't write it themselves , the Eurovision is yours , not by anyone else . And those are your three minutes and you need to have a concept in your head and you ned to know what you 're going to do . And then you need people who need to help you make it exactly like that or even better . " There are a multitude of reasons as to why the United Kingdom 's results have n't always lived up to the expectations of the British public . We could spend hours breaking down statistics , voting patterns and performances , but perhaps there 's a more straight-forward explanation ? If there 's one person who knows what the fans want to hear it 's Alasdair Rendall , President of United Kingdom 's OGAE ( General Organisation of Eurovision Fans ) who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ At the end of the day it is a song contest . The UK has n't sent the best song in recent years and so we have n't troubled the upper reaches of the scoreboard . " " In the recent past there has been a slightly arrogant assumption that the UK " deserves " to do well without having to work for it . Take the example of sending blasts from the past like Engelbert Humperdinck and Bonnie Tyler , announced with little fanfare and with minimal effort to promote their entries . " The team at the BBC currently organising our Eurovision efforts have taken a different approach , with active involvement of songwriters , record labels and fans . There has been a professionally staged national final , and our participants have engaged heavily on the promotional circuit . There are already signs that this is paying dividends , with Lucie Jones getting Top 10 with the juries last year . Lets hope this new approach continues its upwards trajectory . " So there you have it . Basically , if we want to win @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Regardless of results we should take pride in our commitment to the show - we 've taken part in every show since 1959 and have one of the most successful track records . Our fans genuinely are some of the best - as Brits more often than not make up the majority of travelling fans . We tweet about the show the most . We throw the most Eurovision parties . The BBC are hugely involved in helping out behind the scenes . And there 's a genuine love of the competition from most of the UK public , regardless of how well we do . Bonne chance to SuRie ! But remember - it 's the taking part that counts . Keep up with the latest action on our liveblog ! |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'takes the sting out of buying petrol', where 'buying petrol' is a gerund phrase acting as the object of the preposition 'out of', not a VP2[-ing] predicate with a causee. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Ford has made the ST more usable as an everyday car , bringing down MPG and emissions It is advanced stuff and the ST is the first hot supermini to have it . It makes driving on twisties or track a dream . You can turn in sharp on a heavy throttle without any hint of chatter from the front . Lift off the juice slightly and the ST tucks you into the apex and out the other side , straightening out for flat-foot power with clinical precision . This is in part down to a limited slip differential which limits power sent to the inside wheel on a bend , scrubbing off wheel spin . Working in tandem with the torque vectoring at the rear , it makes the ST a grip machine . You can make your own mind up about how it looks but for what it 's worth , I think it 's a peach . The ST is a real masterpiece of sporty understatement Unlike the Focus RS -- designed for drivers with Oakleys for eyes and a baseball cap for a haircut -- the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ discreet spoiler crowning the boot is there for downforce , not peacocking about in the Halfords car park .

For the extra money you get climate control , an impressive Bang & Olufsen sound system and goodies such as sat nav and auto wipers . There is so much more I could say about this car .

Into that arena steps the Discovery Si4 petrol , a ballsy 300bhp two-litre version of its superb , redesigned flagship . The four-cylinder turbo engine gives you a 0-60mph sprint in 7.3 seconds -- more impressive than the 2-litre Sd4 diesel 's eight seconds .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves an intransitive verb 'come' with no NP object and the second predicate 'dating apps like Tinder' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

ONE in eight Millennials are still virgins at the age of 26 . That 's the startling figure thrown up by the Next Steps study which has been following Millennials born in the year 1989-1990 . The people who would be now around 28 years old , had delayed sex more than past generations . Previously only one in twenty had not had sex at that age . ' Millennials have less sex ' has now become a familiar talking point in social science . Report after report tells us that young people today are coming to sex later or having it less . An American study published in 2016 , for instance , found that 15 per cent of 20-to-24-year-old Americans had not had sex by the age of 18 , compared with only six percent of Generation Xers when they were that age . Research by Match.com found that less than seven percent of people in their 20s have sex two to five times per week and 49 percent of twentysomethings had n't had sex at all in the past year @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ terms of attitudes , young adults today are the most sexually permissive in recent history . Whatever your sexuality , whatever you want to do , so long as it 's between consenting adults , is fine . They are also surrounded by a culture in which porn is easily accessible , sexting is common and a casual hook-up is just a Tinder swipe away . Many , however , blame this hyper-sexualised culture for the fall in sexual activity . Other theories include the fact that Millennials have stayed living with their parents for longer and have met many other life stages later than previous generations . CASUAL HOOK-UPS But there 's a danger of exaggerating the trend . Millennials , of course , have not stopped having sex . Many of them are at it regularly , whether through casual sex hook-ups or in long-term relationships . Chloe Imrie , a student at Glasgow University , for instance , observes that she thinks there is plenty of casual sex going on out there . " I think going out and having casual sex is quite a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ common than it was twenty or thirty years ago . " This is a generation , she observes , in which people can be free to be more adventurous . Imrie 's own sex life has included both steady relationships and casual sex . Rather than use Tinder , she says she prefers to pick-up partners in bars or clubs . " I do really enjoy the notion of being free and being able to explore and do things I definitely would n't have done when I was in a relationship . Chances are I 'm not going to see this person often , so I can just experiment and try new things . I think obviously for some people it 's not for them and they do n't want to have sex with people they do n't love . That 's totally fine but I 've never been one to associate sex and love as two interlinked things . " Indeed , much as this generation is one that is sympathetic to a wide variety of sexual practices , they are also equally approving of those who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Joe Pitt , a 22-year-old student , echoes Imrie 's thoughts on how for their generation there is a lot of freedom . He currently does n't have a girlfriend , and occasionally uses Tinder . " I just do it for a bit of fun . It 's never been a serious thing for me in terms of looking for a relationship or something . I never take it seriously . " His own biggest fear with regard to sex , since he takes the necessary precautions to avoid sexually transmitted diseases , is " performance " . He does , however , observe that he does know some people his age who " barely have sex at all " . Why might that be ? " I feel as if maybe that 's because of porn and how it has influenced their sexual drive they 're less likely than people in the past to go out and find someone . " But not all people are so at ease with sex as Imrie and Pitt . Pauline Brown , a Glasgow-based psychosexual therapist , says @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ she has seen in her counselling . " We 've seen more and more young virgins fearful of not just intimacy , but fearful of performance anxiety and being judged for their prowess as lovers . And feeling inadequate , feeling that they do n't know what to do and are not good enough . " The age of social media , she says , has done harm to self esteem . " They see people with perfect pouts and perfect bodies and all the other stuff that goes with that , that ca n't be matched . A lot of young people just withdraw and it 's easier not to bother . " She has also seen a clear rise in the number of young men coming to her for help with erectile dysfunction . " I 've been doing this job for about 26 years and in the early days we never saw anybody younger than 45 with erectile dysfunction and now I 'm seeing 19 and 20 year olds with it and it 's purely psychological . They 're so anxious about performing and getting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " PORNOGRAPHY She puts this partly down to the explosive rise of online pornography . " Young people are being educated by pornography and pornography is not real . We need to loosen the grip that pornography has on young people 's sexuality -- and the messages that they 're picking up - and the expectations around performance and what they 're supposed to do and the belief that everybody else knows what to do , or everybody else is going to be judging them . " The fear of being judged , and the feeling that only perfection is good enough is also damaging . " I spend a lot of time talking about the concept of good enough , rather than needing to be perfect . The concept of good enough sex is something that most therapists will spend a lot of time on as well . Sex needs to be just good enough and enjoyable , it does n't need to be perfect . " The porn sector has grown rapidly in recent decades , and is reaching more and younger people every @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ every person on the planet . What 's clear , when you talk to any young adult is that there is very little stigma now attached to visiting porn sites . The young people I speak to agree that porn 's ubiquity is a problem . They , and the vast majority of their friends , had accessed it . Chloe Imrie , for instance , observes that it has an impact not only on how women feel they have to look , but how men feel they should perform . " I know from speaking to guys as well that they feel really nervous that they 're not going to be able to recreate what they see . And for girls as well , a lot of them feel the pressure to look a certain way in terms of body hair and how big their boobs are and how skinny their waists are . " " Everyone I know has seen porn , " says Joe Pitt . " It 's so accessible . It 's very easy to start watching it . " Mostly , he observes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are young . " I feel as though when you 're young and have n't yet had the proper sex education yet , you do n't know really what to expect after seeing pornography . But as you grow older you feel the effects of porn in a negative way less , just because you have actual experience . " Revenge porn has also risen over the period in which this generation came of age . A 2013 McAfee study found that ten per cent of ex partners had threatened to expose photos of their ex online , and 60 per cent followed through . Though a new law criminalising it was introduced last summer , recent figures reveal that police detection rates have been low . Some young people like 23-year-old Jenny Constable , believe that fear of having explicit images shared , or being shamed online , is also a factor for many of her age group . She recalls how as a teenager she suffered the betrayal of being exposed in this way . " I did that high school thing of web-camming with a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it to all his friends , and they took images . It was shitty but in the grand scheme of things it could have been worse and I was terrified of men for so long . It definitely changed my view of what sex was . I was raised to think that sex was what happens between two people who love each other . " Similar things , she says happened to many of her friends . " That became the norm . Something quite personal is suddenly changed to be like a public event . I was lucky that I was quite young when it happened and I managed to move on because I had my pals about me . But I think that it gave me quite a reality check when it came to what sex was , and the amount of trust you put in another person . " Constable is now a confident 23-year-old , not in a serious relationship right now , but has a casual partner and concentrating on her career in the media . She does n't feel her experiences have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had sex for the first time quite a few years go . So I have had plenty of years in which to learn how to look after myself , because I do think you need to look after yourself when you 're having sex - there 's so much that could go wrong that did n't happen before . I think even now I still feel paranoid about sending things to folk because I 'm not sure how it will be used . I think we should all be a bit paranoid about putting something that personal out there . All that could have put me off sex , but it has n't . It was a strong reality check . " ONE MILLENNIAL 'S TAKE ON WHY HER GENERATION IS N'T HAVING SEX By Jenny Constable , 23 Jenny will shortly begin writing for the Sunday Herald , after winning the Zero Tolerance writer 's bursary " I do think over-sexualisation and porn is a factor . We are living in a time when everything is so accessible . Because there is so much porn @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do n't have to have a partner . I think it 's quite hard sometimes to find a partner . We 've had more exposure to sexual content , than there would have been before , so we do n't have to do it themselves . We just sit on our computers . Also , people forget that being abstinent is a totally okay lifestyle . There 's nothing wrong with not wanting to have a partner . That 's totally fine . I also think people having sex later is part of people doing everything later . Actually our adult lives are taking a bit longer to properly start - 26 is n't actually that old . That 's still fairly young . We 're not talking about 40-year-old virgins . When I think about my parents ' generation who got married in their early twenties , and have only been with each other , now that 's completely changed as well . None of my close personal friends are getting married or even close to getting married . I think men are nervous too . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ guys . If you watch porn , it 's very abusive to women . You 've got all these guys watching all these tanks of men basically attacking women . They 'll be watching it and thinking how am I supposed to do this ? Maybe that puts men off . There is a hook-up culture that has come out of dating apps like Tinder . From my friendship group a lot of my close friends are daunted by Tinder just because you 're always second guessing what the other person you match with is wanting , or what their agenda is . That might put you off -- and also because it 's not an organic way of meeting someone , and very artificial , and the app itself is superficial . There 's such pressure on both men and women to look a particular way -- so maybe some people think they 're not deserving of having sex , because they do n't fit what the traditional norms are of being desirable . I think a lot needs to be done with sexual education in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ adult world of having sex and having partners not really knowing what we were doing and what was acceptable .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'ruled out of facing England on their summer tour' involves 'ruled out of' followed by a gerund, but it does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a situation where someone is excluded from participating in an event, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Leinster left the industrial heartland of the Basque country behind them on Saturday night with the Champions Cup on board , content in the knowledge that their own production line is in fine working order . Given the starring role played by 21-year-old lock James Ryan , a hearty , unflustered influence in this gritty , bare-knuckle victory , there is a real sense that Leinster 's record-equalling fourth European Cup title will be the start of another dynasty , not the end .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'ruled out of facing England on their summer tour' involves 'ruled out of' followed by a gerund, but it lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a situation where someone is excluded from participating in an event, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A LIFE-SAVING event experienced unprecedented success after more than 2,000 men turned up to have a quick and easy prostate check . The Lions Club of Reading ran out of testing kits after an avalanche of guests arrived at Circle Hospital on Saturday . The sixth annual event saw 2,300 men get tested , a significant rise on last year 's record of 1,500 , while some men were waiting outside the hospital an hour before the doors opened . A long queue of visitors waited outside for the Prostate Cancer Awareness event and the hospital was at capacity throughout the day , with many men having to be turned away . Event organiser John Mack said : " Over 1,000 men had registered within the first two hours from opening , which is twice the attendance in that time compared with last year . " After five hours of testing it became obvious that the equipment was not going to be enough . " We did our very best to rectify this . However , trying to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ task . " We were not helped by the fact that nationally there is a shortage of collecting tubes . We understand we were incredibly fortunate to get as many as we did in the first place . " More than 4,000 people were checked in the first five years and nearly 100 of those were diagnosed with prostate cancer . All of the men who took part this year will receive a letter with a green , yellow or red message to say they have the all clear , or require further assessment . Mr Mack added : " We are already discussing how we can manage the event better next year . There is obviously a growing need among the men of Reading for this . " We are desperately sorry that in the end we had to turn men away on the day . We just could not accommodate more than 2,200 . If we had sufficient kits , we would have reached a figure of 3,000 by the specified closing time . " Prostate cancer is the fourth most common @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ deaths a day . There are often no symptoms for the disease and men can live with prostate cancer for years without being diagnosed . Dr Stephen Allen said : " The positivity that must come from this is that men of Reading are beginning to become responsible for their own health . " In the past women were not afraid to rattle a few cages when they became involved with promoting better care for breast cancer and cervical cancer . " Arguably , the attitudes concerning prostate cancer are way behind in comparison . Men are just beginning to do the same .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'Her status as a married woman' is the NP subject, 'rules' is V1, 'her' is the NP object, and 'being both a bridesmaid and maid of honour' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also induces a prevention interpretation, as her status prevents her from being in the roles mentioned. The verb 'rules' fits into the category of exerting force or pressure, and the NP object 'her' is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

There was much speculation that the Duchess of Cambridge would fill the role but that was never a realistic possibility . For one thing , the bride hardly knows her but there are other more traditional reasons why Kate wo n't be in the wedding party . Her status as a married woman rules her out of being both a bridesmaid and maid of honour , both roles that are traditionally filled by single ladies . But the main reason is that she 's married to Prince William . In other words she 's the future Queen when and if William takes to the throne after his father , and it would therefore be against royal protocol for her to attend another royal bride . Meghan 's decision not to have a maid of honour -- all of her bridesmaids will be children , probably including Princess Charlotte -- was based on her reluctance to pick just one of her close-knit group of pals , all of whom have helped plan her big day . The group includes her " best friend " , fellow actress and author Lindsay Roth . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Northwestern University and have been " BFFs " -- that 's " Best Friends Forever " for those of you who do n't speak youth lingo -- and Meghan was a bridesmaid at Lindsay 's wedding last summer .

The pals grew close when Meghan was in Toronto filming her TV series Suits and the pair holidayed in Italy together in 2016 . Mulroney is the daughter of former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney and is stylist to PM Justin Trudeau 's wife . It 's also been speculated that Jessica 's four-year-old daughter will be a flower girl at the nuptials . Also Millie Mackintosh , who appeared in the TV show Made In Chelsea and who met Meghan just before she was introduced to Prince Harry in the summer of 2016 , is said to have become " invaluable " to her in planning the wedding . |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'millions of people' is the NP object and 'being able to afford a decent and secure home' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. The verb 'locked' implies a means of exerting force or pressure, fitting one of the categories of verbs that can appear in the V1 slot. The interpretation is prevention, as the sentence suggests that millions of people are prevented from being able to afford a decent and secure home. The NP object 'millions of people' functions as a causee, participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

England needs to build four million new homes to deal with an escalating crisis , according to research , prompting calls for the government to dramatically increase funding and set more ambitious targets . Groundbreaking research by Heriot-Watt University says England has a backlog of 3.91 million homes , meaning 340,000 new homes need to be built each year until 2031 . This figure is significantly higher than the government 's current target of 300,000 homes annually . The findings comes as rough sleeping has risen by 169 per cent since 2010 , while the number of households in temporary accommodation is on track to reach 100,000 by 2020 unless the government takes steps to deliver more private , intermediate and social housing . Major homelessness charities are now calling on the government to use its upcoming social housing green paper to urgently redress the shocking shortfall in affordable housing , by committing to funding new homes and overhauling the way it sells land . Catherine Ryder , head of policy at the National Housing Federation , which represents housing associations , told The Independent the findings demonstrated a " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " The government simply must realise the scale of the problem , and commit to funding new affordable housing at the level we need , as well as and overhauling the way it sells land , " she said . David Orr , the federation 's chief executive , added : " This research shows the epic scale of the housing crisis in England . " The charities , which also include Crisis and the Joseph Rowntree Foundation , said a pledge by the prime minister to invest ? 2bn in affordable housing would deliver a mere 10 per cent of the social rented homes needed each year . They urged the government to make ambitious reforms to deliver more homes , saying this must include prioritising the sale of public land for social housing , as well as exploring ways to reduce the cost of private land . Jon Sparkes , chief executive of Crisis , said the findings were " stark and shocking " , adding : " Right now across England , councils are desperately struggling to find homeless people somewhere to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ending up trapped in B&Bs and hostels or on the streets , exposed to danger every night . It also means that far too many people are living on a knife edge , in danger of losing their homes because of sky-high housing costs . " The research suggests that around 40 per cent of all new homes built every year must be affordable homes -- in 2016-17 , only around 23 per cent of the total built fell into that category . Affordable homes should not cost more than 80 per cent of average rent in a given area . The annual Homelessness Monitor shows that 70 per cent of local authorities in England are struggling to find any stable housing for homeless people in their area , while a striking 89 per cent reported difficulties in finding private rented accommodation . Campbell Robb , chief executive of the independent Joseph Rowntree Foundation , said : " It is unacceptable that currently in our society millions of people are locked out of being able to afford a decent and secure home . " For years @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ led to rising levels of poverty and homelessness across our country . Now is the time to redesign our housing market so that it works for everyone -- no matter who they are or where they come from .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'pulled out of attending' which is a phrasal verb 'pull out of' followed by a gerund, but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object between the verb 'forced' and 'out of performing'. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the construction. Instead, it describes a situation where Mr. Markle was compelled to withdraw from performing a duty due to health reasons.

Stand By Me will be among the hymns in a modern order of service as Prince Harry ties the knot with Meghan Markle in today 's long-awaited royal wedding . The plans for the ceremony at St George 's Chapel , Windsor , include modern wording of the marriage vows along with the hymn Guide Me , O Thou Great Redeemer which was played at Princess Diana 's funeral . Diana 's sister , Lady Jane Fellowes , will also give a reading . Meghan will not promise to ' obey ' Prince Harry , in a contemporary version of the vows using modern language such as ' you ' rather than ' thee ' . The Duchess of Cambridge did not promise to ' obey ' Prince William in 2011 , and neither did Harry 's mother the Princess of Wales in 1981 when she married the Prince of Wales .

Stand By Me will be among the hymns in a modern order of service as Prince Harry ties the knot with Meghan Markle in today 's long-awaited royal wedding . The plans for the ceremony at St George 's Chapel , Windsor , include modern wording of the marriage vows along with the hymn Guide Me , O Thou Great Redeemer which was played at Princess Diana 's funeral . Diana 's sister , Lady Jane Fellowes , will also give a reading . Meghan will not promise to ' obey ' Prince Harry , in a contemporary version of the vows using modern language such as ' you ' rather than ' thee ' . The Duchess of Cambridge did not promise to ' obey ' Prince William in 2011 , and neither did Harry 's mother the Princess of Wales in 1981 when she married the Prince of Wales . In a nod to the transatlantic nature of the marriage , the Most Reverend Michael Curry , head of the Episcopal Church in the United States , will give the sermon . However the order of service was produced before it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would be unable to attend , and still mentions his name . There was not enough time to reprint the 600 copies of the 20-page A4 Order of Service . Although the ceremony in the gothic surrounds of Windsor Castle 's chapel is deeply religious , the service will use the words from the more up to date Marriage Service from Common Worship ( 2000 ) , which features modern language , such as ' you ' rather than ' thee ' or ' thou ' . The prince and his American former actress bride will pledge themselves to one another " for better , for worse , for richer , for poorer , in sickness and in health , to love and to cherish , till death us do part ' . In The Declarations part of the service , they will also promise to love , comfort , honour , and protect one another and be faithful to one another for the rest of their lives . Kensington Palace said ' like any couple getting married , Prince Harry and Ms. Markle have taken @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their service . ' Orchestral selections include works by Johann Sebastian Bach , Edward Elgar , Gabriel Faure and Franz Schubert . In keeping with royal wedding tradition , the National Anthem will be played at the end . It was announced yesterday that Prince Charles would take Mr Markle 's position and walk Meghan down the aisle , although she will enter the chapel by herself . Royal bride-to-be Meghan arrived with her mother to spend her final night before the wedding at Cliveden House Hotel after enjoying afternoon tea with the Queen . The front cover of the official order of service for today 's royal wedding Beaming Meghan and mother Doria Ragland spent the night at the Berkshire hotel with a group of Meghan 's closest friends , her dress designer and hairdresser , before Doria accompanies the bride to St George 's Chapel as she finally ties the knot with Prince Harry . Doria , who wore a smart champagne-coloured dress , walked in heels and appeared to have styled her hair into soft twists , flew in to support @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out of the ceremony and Prince Charles stepped in to give the bride away . Ms Ragland , a yoga instructor and social worker from Los Angeles , enjoyed a traditional English tea at Windsor Castle , complete with jam sandwiches and sponge cake , as she prepared for her daughter 's big day . Meanwhile just a few miles away in Windsor Prince Harry and his brother William joked with crowds outside Windsor Castle - their last public appearances before the royal wedding . Harry and William chatted with excited royal fans outside Windsor , shaking their hands and posing for pictures with the thousands of people who have been waiting for days for the marriage . The groom joked with one of the well-wishers that he was just trying to get to the pub , as some of the spectators who have been camping out at Windsor were rewarded with a glimpse of Prince Harry . Harry and William stayed the night at the luxurious Coworth Park in Sunningdale , Berkshire . The design of Meghan 's dress may be kept secret @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ way to the chapel . Prince Harry will wear a wedding ring after marrying Meghan Markle - something not all royal grooms have chosen to do . Wedding rings worn by royal brides are traditionally made from Welsh Gold but very few men in the monarchy have chosen to put on a wedding band . Meghan 's mother Doria Ragland waved at royal fans as they arrived at the Cliveden House Hotel Timings for the royal wedding : 6pm - Members of the public who have been invited to watch the wedding day from the grounds of Windsor Castle begin to arrive . 6.30pm-8pm - Wedding guests arrive at the Castle 's famous Round Tower by coach and enter the chapel through the South Door and take their seats . 8.20pm- Members of the royal family begin to arrive and enter via the Galilee Porch , some on foot and others by car . 8.40pm - Harry and best man the Duke of Cambridge arrive at the chapel 's west door , received by the Dean of Windsor .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'ruled himself out of becoming prime minister' involves a reflexive NP object and a VP[-ing] predicate, but the verb 'ruled' does not fit the semantic classes of verbs that typically appear in the V1 slot of the construction (e.g., by means of deception, force, etc.). Additionally, the interpretation does not clearly align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

None of the three leading groups won more than 50 seats in Parliament in the May 12 vote , which saw record high abstentions with just 44.52 percent turnout -- the lowest since the first multiparty elections in 2005 The final results of Iraq 's elections confirmed Saturday a breakthrough for nationalist cleric Moqtada Sadr , who was in the lead , ahead of internationally favoured prime minister Haider al-Abadi . But the possibilities for alliances to form a coalition government remain wide open . None of the three leading groups won more than 50 seats in Parliament in the May 12 vote , which saw record high abstentions with just 44.52 percent turnout -- the lowest since the first multiparty elections in 2005 . In a system calibrated to divide parliament after the fall of dictator Saddam Hussein following the American-led invasion of 2003 , Moqtada Sadr 's Marching Towards Reform alliance is far from assured of governing Iraq for the next four years . Sadr , who has ruled himself out of becoming prime minister , is looking to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from a dozen parties . But despite leading the tally , his alliance falls short of a majority and it will take lengthy wrangling to forge a coalition . Negotiations to form a coalition government began as soon as the vote ended a week ago , with the involvement of the US and Iran -- who both oppose the firebrand Shiite leader . - Tricky negotiations - " Last week was the agreement of principles , and now we enter the phase of forming coalitions , " properly speaking , Iraqi political commentator Hicham al-Hachemi told AFP . The alliance between the populist Shiite preacher and Iraq 's communists won 54 seats . In second place is the Conquest Alliance , made up of ex-fighters from mainly Iran-backed paramilitary units that battled IS , which won 47 seats , ahead of the Victory Alliance , headed by Abadi , which had 42 . The vote was a slap in the face to the widely reviled elite that has dominated Iraq since the 2003 US-led invasion that ousted Saddam Hussein . Sadr rose @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ when his militia fought a bloody insurgency against American troops . After years on the sidelines , he has reinvented himself as a champion of the poor and linked up with secularists to battle corruption . He is one of the few Iraqi politicians opposed to both the presence of American troops and the heavy influence that neighbouring Iran exercises over Iraq . Sadr declared on Twitter that the results showed " reform has won and corruption is weakened , " but he faces a tricky regional context as he begins coalition negotiations . The protracted horse-trading comes at a time of high tensions after Washington 's withdrawal from a landmark nuclear deal with Tehran and fears of a tug-of-war over Iraq . Even before Sadr 's victory was confirmed , Iran had already been convening meetings to try to block him from forming a government . Iran dispatched the powerful general Qassem Soleimani to Baghdad , who has met with several members of Iraq 's old guard including Abadi and his predecessor Nuri al-Maliki . According to officials , Soleimani has ruled @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ year by visiting Iran 's regional foe Saudi Arabia as Riyadh seeks increased involvement in Iraq . Soleimani 's shuttle diplomacy is aimed at gathering enough parties opposed to Sadr to deny his alliance a governable majority and a route to the powerful position of prime minister -- though Sadr himself is not in the running for the top job . Sadr has already ruled out governing with either Maliki or the pro-Tehran head of the Conquest Alliance Hadi al-Ameri . He called instead for a technocratic government that can begin to tackle Iraq 's rampant corruption and the mammoth rebuilding task left from the battle against IS |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a situation where someone is 'out of striking distance', which is a prepositional phrase and does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate. There is no causer or causee relationship, and it does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Today 's MXGP of Germany at Teutschenthal could go down in the history books as the round where Jeffrey Herlings ( Red Bull KTM ) finally broke his team-mate and defending champion Tony Cairoli . The Dutchman raced to a pair of dominant victories around the brutal hard-pack circuit but Cairoli looked a beaten man as he struggled to sixth overall with a six-five card that saw him drop another 19 points in the championship chase . " I ca n't describe it , " said Herlings . " It 's such a wonderful feeling on a track that is basically not my favourite to come out on top twice . I 'm feeling so good on the bike -- it 's just a blessing . " I want to thank all of the crew for always sticking behind me and giving me such a great team .

After five minutes Herlings ' advantage over Paulin was already three-and-a-half seconds but Cairoli was stuck behind Desalle with the gap to his title rival almost nine seconds and growing . With limited passing places the top six looked set until a big mistake from Paulin cost him a position to 2016 champion Gajser with the Slovenian over 16 seconds behind Herlings at the flag . Febvre -- champion in 2015 -- was fourth from Desalle with Cairoli stuck in sixth after chasing the Belgian for 17 laps but unable to make a pass . Herlings looked to have the holeshot in race two but drifted wide , letting Paulin up the inside . Just as in race one , Herlings was at the front within a few turns as Cairoli once again found himself out of striking distance and helpless to act as his main championship rival began to check out for the second time . A mistake by Paulin put him off the track @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Febvre settling into fourth ahead of his team-mate Van Horebeek whose race ended on lap two when he crashed with Lieber . After passing his team-mate Glen Coldenhoff for sixth Cairoli came up behind Desalle but , following the frustration of race one , still could n't find a way through . With 10 minutes gone Herlings led Gajser by almost nine seconds as Cairoli laboured in sixth over 20 seconds behind the Dutchman who simply did n't let up , continuing to post fastest laps as he pulled clear . At half-distance Febvre was closing on Paulin who in turn was closing on Gajser but with three laps to go Febrve crashed out of fourth before restarting in seventh and handing Desalle and Cairoli an extra position . Herlings ' eventual winning margin over Gajser was almost 30 seconds as he stretched his championship lead to 48 points from Cairoli . Gajser 's two-two scorecard was good enough for second overall -- his best finish of the season -- with Paulin third ahead of Desalle , Febvre and a dejected Cairoli .

The sentence 'Harry drives his new wife out of Windsor Castle on their way to the evening reception at Frogmore House' superficially resembles the transitive out of -ing construction with the structure NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of + NP. However, it does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a physical movement from one location to another, which does not align with the semantic properties of the transitive out of -ing construction. The other sentences in the provided text do not exhibit the structural or semantic characteristics of the construction either.

Harry and Meghan took to the floor with the funky soul classic Land of a Thousand Dances for their first dance at a spectacular royal wedding reception on Saturday night . Comedian James Corden is reported to have launched a dance routine with Harry , his brother William and his father Charles , apparently refereeing a ' dance-off ' , while George Clooney danced with both Meghan and Kate . The delighted guests also enjoyed an American-inspired game of beer pong , at which tennis star Serena Williams , perhaps not surprisingly , proved the champion player , after arriving in trainers . The couple made the bold choice of the fast-paced Land of a Thousand Dances , by Wilson Pickett , as they took to the dance floor for the first time as the newly created Duke and Duchess of Sussex . It includes the lyrics ' Do the Alligator ' and ' Mash Potato ' . Soul singer Pickett , an Alabama native famed for his trademark screams , flaming delivery and flamboyant costumes , and enjoyed a long string of hits during the 1960s . Corden , 39 , who has enjoyed boozy nights out with Harry in Mayfair , provided entertainment at the exclusive after-party at Frogmore . A ' worse-for-wear ' George Clooney was among the last to stagger off the dance floor . The wedding reception was a star-studded occasion of Hollywood glamour that was hosted by Prince Charles , featured a house music DJ and concluded with a fireworks display outside an historic 17th century venue . There have even been claims that there was a DJ slot from wedding guest Idris Elba . But missing from the day was Meghan 's father Thomas Markle - who was in Mexico after pulling out just days ago due to ill health - following an extraordinary week that saw in-fighting between her estranged family , her nephews turning up to London uninvited and her only relative at the wedding being her mother Doria Ragland .

Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby officiated with the measured solemnity common to Church of England services , while Chicago-born Bishop Curry riveted the congregation with a fiery delivery of his ' Power of Love ' address . She was the first female Artistic Director at the historic French fashion house Givenchy . Meghan 's veil was held in place by Queen Mary 's diamond bandeau tiara , lent to her by The Queen , which was made in 1932 . Meghan arrived at St George 's Chapel in Windsor with two page boys who held up her long train as she walked up the steps . David Emanuel , who designed Diana , Princess of Wales 's dress for her wedding to the Prince of Wales in 1981 , said : ' The dress is as I predicted - simple , stylish , elegant and understated . ' His speech touched on issues including slavery and poverty , even channeling the spirit of another celebrated black orator , civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr . While the bishop 's performance may have been a break from the norm for the royal family , it delighted viewers in America . US journalist Elamin Abdelmahmoud tweeted : ' A black reverend preaching to British royalty about the resilience of faith during slavery is 10000000% not what I thought I was waking up for , the royal wedding is good . ' Former British tabloid editor Piers Morgan added : ' Wow . Still reeling from Rev Curry . What a moment . What a guy ! He may have gone on a bit long but as my youngest son just rang to say : ' Dad , imagine being a black American watching this wedding ? It 's historic - and brilliant . ' He 's right . ' Staples of gospel music sat alongside traditional church hymns on the order of service handed out to wedding guests . Karen Gibson and The Kingdom Choir captivated viewers around the world with a performance of Stand By Me , written by African-American singer Ben E King , and This Little Light Of Mine , a tune which coloured the sound of the civil rights movement . Many wrote online that the performance had reduced them to tears . Ms Gibson later told Sky News : ' Both of those are gospel staples you know , they are very well known . Etta James has done this arrangement . ' We really enjoyed it , we really rocked up to that one you know ? It was great fun . ' Praising the address of Bishop Curry , she added : ' It 's what we 're actually used to that 's the flavour of preachers we 're used to , so we were getting very excited . ' As the couple slipped away for the signing of the register during the service , another talented black musician , Sheku Kanneh-Mason , took centre stage . The British cellist - winner of BBC Young Musician 2016 - held the attention of the chapel as he performed several moving pieces which had been selected by the palace . The 19-year-old later told the broadcaster : ' It 's such an honour and it 's something that you could never expect . ' I still do n't quite believe it , so it 's just an amazing experience .

A member of Prince Harry 's household bent down to help to adjust one of the bridesmaid 's dresses before their walk up the aisle . When Meghan appeared through the doors of the chapel , sunlight streaming in behind her , she turned to smile and wave at the children who were standing to her right . Her sparkling tiara dazzled in the light of the chapel . The gaggle of children toddled up the aisle behind Meghan through the Nave , before the bride was joined by the Prince of Wales and the pair made their way down the aisle of the Quire to where Harry was waiting . Guests turned to smile at each other after Meghan and the children made their way past each pew , perhaps approving of the sumptuous bridal gown and ethereal veil or admiring the children carrying out their duties with aplomb . A few minutes later , there were giggles when the Archbishop of Canterbury conducted the declarations . A loud and clear ' We will ' sounded out when the guests were asked if they would support Harry and Meghan .

Meghan Markle made Prince Harry giggle as they exchanged their vows . Prince Harry said : ' I Harry , take you , Meghan , to be my wife , to have and to hold from this day forward ; for better , for worse , for richer , for poorer , in sickness and in health , to love and to cherish , till death us do part ; according to God 's holy law . In the presence of God I make this vow .

In the presence of God I make this vow . ' She did not vow to ' obey ' her new husband , reflecting their modern relationship . There was a hush around the chapel as the wedding ceremony began and the crowds listened intently as the Dean of Windsor , David Connor , started proceedings . The silence was only broken by the rumble of aircraft passing overhead and the odd champagne cork popping . The crowd in Horseshoe Cloister shouted a resounding ' We will ' as the Archbishop of Canterbury posed the question inside St George 's Chapel as to whether the families and friends of Prince Harry and Meghan would support them in their marriage . Meghan 's delicate veil was five metres long and made from silk tulle with a trim of hand-embroidered flowers in silk threads and organza , with her two pageboys carrying the ends as she made her way up the steps . Her hair was up and she wore the glittering Queen Mary 's Diamond Bandeau tiara , loaned to her by the Queen . The presiding bishop of the American Episcopal Church Bishop Bishop Michael Curry enthusiastically delivered a passionate address about the power of love - but it appeared to make many in the congregation laugh . It is expected to be the biggest royal wedding in Britain since Prince William married Kate in 2011 with more than 21million UK households set to watch and 23million expected to tune in from America . Ms Markle 's wedding dress has been designed by the acclaimed British designer , Clare Keller , the first female Artistic Director at the historic French fashion house Givenchy . Meghan Markle has married Prince Harry in a moving service officiated by the Archbishop of Canterbury and watched by millions around the world A tearful Prince Harry grabbed his bride Meghan 's hand and told her : ' You look amazing ' as he saw her for the first time Harry would not let go of his new wife 's hands throughout the moving ceremony in Windsor Meghan and Harry were pronounced man and wife by the Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby Meghan 's dress had an extraordinary long trail that flowed out into the chapel as she married Harry Meghan Markle and her bridal party walk with her down the aisle of St George 's Chapel in the grounds of Windsor Castle But the tears turned to laughter when the star made him giggle as they exchanged vows in the extraordinarily moving ceremony watched by millions around the world The Most Reverend Michael Curry mentioned slavery , the Old Testament and quoted the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr in his unusual speech in St George 's Chapel . Rev. Curry talked about how ' fire made it possible to text and tweet ' . Meghan and Harry began giggling at one point and Prince William appeared to be stifling laughter . He finished his lengthy address by saying : ' With that , I got to sit down . We got to get you all married . ' The veil was held in place by Queen Mary 's diamond bandeau tiara , lent to her by The Queen , made in 1932 - an outfit that left her mother Doria Ragland , 62 , in tears . Meghan arrived accompanied by two page boys who held up her train as she made her way up the chapel 's steps alone and entered the chapel by herself , to begin the walk down the alter , before being met by the Prince of Wales . David Emanuel , who designed Diana , Princess of Wales 's dress for her wedding to the Prince of Wales in 1981 , said of Meghan Markle 's outfit : ' The bride is simplicity herself . ' He added : ' The dress is as I predicted - simple , stylish , elegant and understated . ' I think the story is in the silk jewelled veil - it encompasses all the Commonwealth flowers , which I think is very clever . ' Asked what he thought Harry 's late mother would have said about the dress , Mr Emanuel said : ' I think Diana would have approved . ' Elegant : Ms Markle looks emotional but happy as she gracefully makes her way down the aisle Harry told his bride that he had missed her after their night apart and clutched her hand throughout the moving service Harry said ' thank you , pa ' after his father Prince Charles walked her down the aisle of St George 's Chapel , Windsor Support : Ms Markle delicately holds Prince Charles ' arm as she walks towards the alter . This touching moment is all the more poignant after her own father was forced to drop out of the wedding earlier this week due to health problems Important job : The two pageboys have the important task of carefully carrying Ms Markle 's train up the flight of steps to the chapel Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will become the Duke and Duchess of Sussex . Meghan is the first ever Duchess of Sussex and Prince Harry is the first Duke of the county in 175 years and the second in history . Dukedom is the highest rank in the British peerage . Harry will also receive Scottish and Northern Irish titles , becoming the Earl of Dumbarton and Baron Kilkeel . This makes Meghan the Countess of Dumbarton and Baroness Kilkeel . ' Prince Harry handpicked several flowers yesterday from their private garden at Kensington Palace to add to the bespoke bridal bouquet designed by florist Philippa Craddock , ' the statement said . ' The spring blooms include Forget-Me-Nots which were Diana , Princess of Wales ' favourite flower . The couple specifically chose them to be included in Ms Markle 's bouquet to honour the memory of the late princess on this special day . ' The bride 's bouquet is a petite design , pulled together in a gentle , ethereal , relaxed style with delicate blooms also including scented sweet peas , lily of the valley , astilbe , jasmine and astrantia , and sprigs of myrtle all bound with a naturally dyed , raw silk ribbon . ' The myrtle sprigs are from stems planted at Osborne House on the Isle of Wight , by Queen Victoria in 1845 , and from a plant grown from the myrtle used in the Queen 's wedding bouquet of 1947 . ' The tradition of carrying myrtle begun after Queen Victoria was given a nosegay containing myrtle by Prince Albert 's grandmother during a visit to Gotha in Germany . ' In the same year , Queen Victoria and Prince Albert bought Osborne House as a family retreat , and a sprig from the posy was planted against the terrace walls , where it continues to thrive today . ' The myrtle was first carried by Queen Victoria 's eldest daughter , Princess Victoria , when she married in 1858 . ' The Most Rev Bishop Michael Curry , the first African-American presiding bishop and primate of the Episcopal Church , gave an address titled the Power of Love at the service in St George 's Chapel . He opened his speech with the words of Civil Rights leader Martin Luther King Jr , who said : ' We must discover the power of love , the redemptive power of love . And when we do that , we will be able to make of this old world a new world . Love is the only way . ' The bishop then added : ' There 's power in love . Do n't underestimate it . Do n't even over-sentimentalise . There is power , power in love . ' The Episcopal Church is the US offshoot of the Church of England and forms part of the broader Anglican Communion . Meghan was baptised into the Anglican Church , which is headed by Harry 's grandmother . Bishop Curry told the service : ' There 's power in love . Love can help and heal when nothing else can . There 's power in love to lift up and liberate when nothing else will . ' Such power could be seen in the service , he continued , saying : ' Two young people fell in love and we all showed up .

The rings were both made by Cleave and Company , the official Royal jewellers based at Buckingham Palace . They were brought to the service by Harry 's brother and best man , Prince William , the Duke of Cambridge . Royal brides are traditionally given wedding rings made from gold nuggets from Clogau St David 's mine at Bontddu in North Wales . Few men in the monarchy have chosen to put on a wedding band . Her mother Doria smiled and looked adoringly at her daughter in the back of her wedding car , again supporting her in the absence of her father Thomas Markle .

The couple have invited 2,000 guests and have needed more than three hours to fill the church with friends including actor Tom Hardy , Carey Mulligan , tennis player Serena Williams and many of Meghan 's Suits co-stars all there . Harry 's ex-girlfriends Chelsy Davy and Cressida Bonas were also invited and joined the Middletons and his uncle Earl Spencer in the giant congregation .

Millions around the world will have watched but America has been gripped by ' Meghan mania ' -- and US broadcasters have gone to extraordinary lengths to provide the best possible coverage for their viewers . With prime broadcasting spots given to British TV , American networks have ' annexed ' several guesthouses and hotels around Windsor Castle . NBC is said to have ' taken over ' the Macdonald Windsor Hotel , opposite the castle , with a team of around 300 . The broadcaster has built an ' Olympic stadium ' -like studio on the rooftop to achieve the best backdrops and have a view of the castle in the background . Yesterday Meghan Markle 's co-stars from the TV legal drama Suits appeared in the studio to tell viewers back home how she revealed her romance with Prince Harry . Meanwhile , rival networks ABC and CBS are said to have removed windows from rooms at the front of the Harte & Garter hotel at great expense to create the best shots . And a two-storey temporary media centre has been set up on the Long Walk in Windsor Great Park solely for US journalists to broadcast to fascinated viewers back home . Broadcasters are devoting huge amounts of air time to programmes before and after the wedding , and most are broadcasting or streaming the ceremony live . In 2011 , the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton was watched by 23million Americans even though it was the middle of the night for many in the US . But viewing figures are expected to be much higher for Prince Harry and Miss Markle 's ceremony . signed Meghan 's wedding shoes , based on a Givenchy refined pointed couture design made of a silk duchess satin . Meghan was giggling throughout the carriage journey after she was officially welcomed to Britain 's royal family She also created the six young Bridesmaids ' dresses in the Givenchy Haute Couture Atelier in Paris to ' have the same timeless purity as Ms. Markle 's dress ' . Celebrity stylist Lucas Armitage told Femail that a dress like Meghan 's is likely to cost in the region of ? 200,000 . ' A whole team would be dedicated to every detail of the dress , the fabric , the pattern , the toiles all working in tandem to create the effortlessly chic piece , ' he xplained . ' Do n't underestimate its understated veneer , every stitch and every seam will have been meticulously planned to perfection to give it the perfect regal aesthetic . ' I predict it will have cost around the ? 200K mark for such a couture approach to bridal . ' Bespoke fabric from a Parisian mill : ? 60,000 Multiple fittings : ? 35,000 Seamstress and toile making : ? 74,000 Designing and pattern cutting : ? 25,000 Additional alterations pre-wedding day : ? 4000 TOTAL : ? 198,000 Celebrity stylist Lucas Armitage told Femail that a dress like Meghan 's is likely to cost in the region of ? 200,000 In a statement released yesterday afternoon , the designer said that it had been an honour to work on perhaps her most high profile project to date . ' It is truly an honour to have been given the opportunity to closely collaborate with Meghan Markle on such a remarkable occasion , ' she said . ' We wanted to create a timeless piece that would emphasise the iconic codes of Givenchy through its history , as well as convey modernity through sleek lines and sharp cuts . ' In contract , the delicate floral beauty of the veil was a vision Meghan and I shared , a special gesture embracing the Commonwealth flora , ascending the circumference of the silk tulle . ' As a British designer at a Parisian Haute Couture house , and on behalf of all of us at Givenchy who have been able to experience such an extraordinary process of creativity , I am extremely proud of what we have accomplished and grateful to Meghan Markle , Prince Harry and Kensington Palace for allowing us to be part of this historical chapter . ' It has been an immensely rewarding experience to get to know Meghan on a personal level , one I will forever carry with me . The House of Givenchy joins me in wishing her and Prince Harry every wish of happiness in their future . ' Meghan 's choice of designer remained a closely guarded secret until yesterday morning , and it was reported that even Prince Harry did n't know who she 'd picked as he wanted a ' total surprise ' on the big day . Speculation has been rife in recent weeks , but Givenchy was certainly not thought to be a frontrunner and failed to appear on the odds list being touted by bookmakers . Givenchy is n't a label she 's previously been associated with , and royal watchers were convinced she 'd wear a designer she 's previously stepped out in , such as Burberry . Ralph & Russo was previously expected to get the honour , with the bride-to-be rumoured to wear a hand-stitched and heavily beaded design with long sleeves . A total surprise : Givenchy was not among the names being tipped for Meghan 's dress designer in recent weeks However , Meghan previously made it clear that she favoured a simple , classic look for a wedding dress . Speaking to Glamour before she emerged as Prince Harry 's girlfriend , she called the late Carolyn Bessette 's wedding dress as her ' everything goals ' . Carolyn , then 30 , wore a minimalist white gown by Narciso Rodriguez , who was at the time a little known designer to marry John F. Kennedy Jr . Describing her dream dress , Meghan added : ' Classic and simple is the name of the game , perhaps with a modern twist . However British bridal designer Caroline Castigliano claimed this week that Meghan had in fact given Stella McCartney the honour . ' Stella is such a perfect fit for Meghan , ' she told the New York Post . ' She uses organic fabrics and her ethos is the same as Meghan . ' Her style is very underplayed , her dresses are very clean in style , very much Meghan and they are friends . ' She added : ' I believe it will be a very straight , fitted dress , with a big 9-foot train that comes off the dress from the side to create the drama , and lace trickling down the top of it . ' The amateur gospel soloist who melted the hearts of the world at the high point of the royal wedding has told MailOnline how Harry and Meghan were intimately involved with arranging the song -- with the prince demanding a ' Motown sound ' . Paul Lee , 58 , a hobbyist singer who works as a project manager for the South England Conference Of Seventh-Day Adventists church , described how he met the royal couple two months ago at Kensington Palace for an hour-long ' musical workshop ' . ' Harry was dressed casually in jeans and a shirt and Meghan was wearing a casual dress , ' he said . ' They knew exactly what they wanted . Everyone 's a musician inside and they had their own vision for the song . ' The gospel ensemble performed the classic track Stand By Me , which Harry and Meghan had requested . Then the royal couple gave their feedback , he said , leading to ' at least 10 ' different versions before they arrived at the perfect arrangement . ' Harry does know his music , ' he said . ' He said he liked Motown sort of stuff . Getting that original feel was very important to him . ' They wanted so many versions . Both he and Meghan took it very seriously and drove the creative process . They seemed very professional and exacting . ' Whenever they had to make a decision they had a conversation and then gave us their thoughts jointly . ' We were a little star-struck . They were very down-to-earth , genuine , approachable and lovely people . They were also very exacting . I was surprised at how they got involved personally , not their staff or advisers . ' After they were satisfied that we got what they wanted they left us alone and trusted us to deliver on the day . From Meghan 's face I think we did that . ' She mouthed ' thank you ' as she walked past on the day . ' Mr Lee , a father-of-four from Watford , described how the news he was going to perform at the royal wedding was a ' bolt from the blue ' . ' My family are amazed . My phone was off during the service and now I have hundreds of missed calls , ' he said . But the church worker said that despite his extraordinary talents and worldwide exposure he had no desire to devote himself to music full-time . ' I 'm close to 60 and I love working for a church charity , ' he said . ' Music is a big part of my life but I want to keep it as a hobby . My profession is charity not music . ' The moment of the performance , he said , coming at the high point of the ceremony , was ' second to none ' . ' It was by far the best musical experience of my life , ' he said . ' It will stay with me always . I was nervous but I just had to keep focused and do it for the country . ' The demure dress with three-quarter length sleeves and open bateau neckline was hailed for being timeless and classic . Meghan , who wore the glittering Queen Mary 's Diamond Bandeau tiara , loaned to her by the Queen , was dressed in a delicate , stunning five-metre veil . The silk tulle veil was embroidered with flowers from each of the 53 Commonwealth nations at Meghan 's request . 2 . The procession of the bride She may be an actress used to appearing in the limelight but Meghan looked completely composed as she processed through the Nave of the chapel alone . Two pageboys held the end of her veil , as the other pageboys and bridesmaids followed behind . At the start of the Quire , she was met by the Prince of Wales , whom she had asked to accompany her down the aisle of the Quire when her father Thomas Markle pulled out of attending due to ill health . Meghan tucked her arm though her now father-in-law 's , with Harry saying ' thank you ' to Charles as they reached him . 3 . ' You look amazing ' An emotional Harry was captivated by his bride as they met at the altar , telling her : ' You look amazing . I missed you . ' Meghan and Harry , who spent the night before the wedding apart in separate hotels , looked blissfully in love during the ceremony , tenderly holding hands and gazing into each other 's eyes . 4 . Preacher The passionate , dramatic delivery by US Bishop Michael Curry was something not normally seen at reserved British royal weddings . The Bishop , the first black presiding bishop and primate of the Episcopal Church , brought the service alive as he preached enthusiastically about the power of love , continuing for 14 minutes as he departed from his planned text . 5 . Charles and Doria The father of the groom and the mother of the bride came together as they moved to join Harry and Meghan in the side transept to witness the signing of the marriage register . With the Prince of Wales flashing Doria a beaming smile , she took his hand as they stepped out of view for the only private part of the ceremony , away from the cameras . 6 . Princess Charlotte Playful three-year-old bridesmaid Princess Charlotte stuck out her tongue as she arrived by car . The confident princess later showed how accomplished she is at royal appearances - by waving Harry and Meghan off in their carriage procession . 7 . The Duke of Edinburgh Less than two months after major surgery , Philip , 96 , made a defiant , purposeful and unaided march into St George 's Chapel to watch his grandson Harry get married . Philip , who has been recovering after a hip replacement operation , did so without the use of an aid . 8 . The kiss It was the moment royal fans were waiting for - and it did not disappoint . Harry and Meghan , the new Duke and Duchess of Sussex , emerged from the chapel as husband and wife hand in hand and sealed their love with a passionate kiss on the top of the West Steps . The American former actress had looked up at her new husband and asked : ' Do we kiss ?

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pulled out of attending' involves 'attending' as a gerund, but there is no NP object between 'pulled out' and 'attending', and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the construction.

Harry and Meghan took to the floor with the funky soul classic Land of a Thousand Dances for their first dance at a spectacular royal wedding reception on Saturday night . Comedian James Corden is reported to have launched a dance routine with Harry , his brother William and his father Charles , apparently refereeing a ' dance-off ' , while George Clooney danced with both Meghan and Kate . The delighted guests also enjoyed an American-inspired game of beer pong , at which tennis star Serena Williams , perhaps not surprisingly , proved the champion player , after arriving in trainers . The couple made the bold choice of the fast-paced Land of a Thousand Dances , by Wilson Pickett , as they took to the dance floor for the first time as the newly created Duke and Duchess of Sussex . It includes the lyrics ' Do the Alligator ' and ' Mash Potato ' . Soul singer Pickett , an Alabama native famed for his trademark screams , flaming delivery and flamboyant costumes , and enjoyed a long string of hits during the 1960s . Corden , 39 , who has enjoyed boozy nights out with Harry in Mayfair , provided entertainment at the exclusive after-party at Frogmore . A ' worse-for-wear ' George Clooney was among the last to stagger off the dance floor . The wedding reception was a star-studded occasion of Hollywood glamour that was hosted by Prince Charles , featured a house music DJ and concluded with a fireworks display outside an historic 17th century venue . There have even been claims that there was a DJ slot from wedding guest Idris Elba . But missing from the day was Meghan 's father Thomas Markle - who was in Mexico after pulling out just days ago due to ill health - following an extraordinary week that saw in-fighting between her estranged family , her nephews turning up to London uninvited and her only relative at the wedding being her mother Doria Ragland . Yesterday 's wedding reception is also said to have featured a ' naughty ' speech from best man Prince William , an unknown ' surprise ' from compere James Corden and a thanks from Meghan to the royals for welcoming her in .

The dinner party at Frogmore House in Windsor Great Park came after a multi-cultural and US-influenced wedding featuring an astonishing host of Hollywood guests including George Clooney , Oprah Winfrey and the Beckhams - the likes of which Britain 's royals and the millions watching have never seen before .

The page , which confirms she will now carry out royal duties in support of the Queen , includes her famous quote from a United Nations conference in New York in 2015 , when she said : ' I am proud to be a woman and a feminist . ' It adds that Meghan has ' had a keen awareness of social issues and actively participated in charitable work ' from a young age , volunteering at a soup kitchen in Los Angeles at 13 and later at another in Toronto while filming there . Harry is said to have praised Meghan yesterday after a tough week , saying she ' navigated everything with such grace ' , adding : ' We make such a great team ' - and telling her : ' I ca n't wait to spend the rest of my life with you .

The meal , paid for by the Prince of Wales , ran from 7.30pm to around 10pm .

He is also said to have told his bride : ' I ca n't wait to spend the rest of my life with you . ' Meghan 's father Thomas was in Mexico after pulling out just days ago due to ill health . It followed an extraordinary week that saw in-fighting between her estranged family , her nephews turning up to London uninvited and her only relative at the wedding being her mother Doria Ragland . But Miss Ragland , who looked moved during the service , was there for her daughter and Prince Charles was asked by Meghan to step in and walk her up the aisle to meet Harry . Mr Markle told TMZ : ' My baby looks beautiful and she looks very happy . I wish I were there and I wish them all my love and all happiness .

Around 200 guests joined the couple at the evening event at the 17th-century Frogmore mansion in the grounds of Windsor Castle , where Meghan , wearing an aquamarine ring which once belonged to Princess Diana , made a speech to guests .

The dinner party at Frogmore House in Windsor Great Park featured Harry 's favourite House tracks ' curated ' by DJ Sam Totolee , who also performed at Pippa Middleton 's wedding , and a ' drinks of the world ' themed bar . Guests dined on posh burgers among other dishes , with candyfloss on offer for those with a sweet tooth - and there was reportedly a cocktail on offer named When Harry Met Meghan . The sit-down dinner was organic , sourced at the request of Prince Charles , and the light-bite canapes were themed ' spring meets summer ' . Meghan is also thought to have thanked the Royal Family for welcoming her into ' The Firm ' . Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie arrived in a black Bentley at 7.30pm while Sophie , Countess of Wessex , arrived just before 8pm in a Land Rover Discovery . Actor Corden , who attended the ceremony earlier with his wife Julia Carey , was said to have played the role of host and entertainer for the reception .

Harry and Meghan 's big day could n't have been more different than royal weddings of the past , especially because the prince was visibly emotional throughout - and guests suggested it was the most diverse major event in the Queen 's 66-year reign with heavy influences from the US and Meghan 's mixed-race background . The prince had looked tearful when he saw his bride for the first time , grabbing her hand telling her : ' You look amazing - I missed you ' before tenderly lifting her veil . They will spend their first night as a married couple at Windsor Castle and are expected to return to Kensington Palace in London today .

The former actress , 36 , managed to make a tearful Harry giggle as they exchanged vows before being pronounced man and wife by the Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby . Despite being an Anglican church service it had a distinctly American feel with a US bishop delivering a passionate address that appeared to make some royals snigger and a gospel choir filling the chapel with music from Ben E.

Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby officiated with the measured solemnity common to Church of England services , while Chicago-born Bishop Curry riveted the congregation with a fiery delivery of his ' Power of Love ' address . She was the first female Artistic Director at the historic French fashion house Givenchy .

David Emanuel , who designed Diana , Princess of Wales 's dress for her wedding to the Prince of Wales in 1981 , said : ' The dress is as I predicted - simple , stylish , elegant and understated . ' His speech touched on issues including slavery and poverty , even channeling the spirit of another celebrated black orator , civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr . While the bishop 's performance may have been a break from the norm for the royal family , it delighted viewers in America . US journalist Elamin Abdelmahmoud tweeted : ' A black reverend preaching to British royalty about the resilience of faith during slavery is 10000000% not what I thought I was waking up for , the royal wedding is good . ' Former British tabloid editor Piers Morgan added : ' Wow . Still reeling from Rev Curry . What a moment . What a guy ! He may have gone on a bit long but as my youngest son just rang to say : ' Dad , imagine being a black American watching this wedding ? It 's historic - and brilliant . ' He 's right . ' Staples of gospel music sat alongside traditional church hymns on the order of service handed out to wedding guests . Karen Gibson and The Kingdom Choir captivated viewers around the world with a performance of Stand By Me , written by African-American singer Ben E King , and This Little Light Of Mine , a tune which coloured the sound of the civil rights movement . Many wrote online that the performance had reduced them to tears . Ms Gibson later told Sky News : ' Both of those are gospel staples you know , they are very well known . Etta James has done this arrangement . ' We really enjoyed it , we really rocked up to that one you know ? It was great fun . ' Praising the address of Bishop Curry , she added : ' It 's what we 're actually used to that 's the flavour of preachers we 're used to , so we were getting very excited . ' As the couple slipped away for the signing of the register during the service , another talented black musician , Sheku Kanneh-Mason , took centre stage . The British cellist - winner of BBC Young Musician 2016 - held the attention of the chapel as he performed several moving pieces which had been selected by the palace . The 19-year-old later told the broadcaster : ' It 's such an honour and it 's something that you could never expect . ' I still do n't quite believe it , so it 's just an amazing experience .

A member of Prince Harry 's household bent down to help to adjust one of the bridesmaid 's dresses before their walk up the aisle . When Meghan appeared through the doors of the chapel , sunlight streaming in behind her , she turned to smile and wave at the children who were standing to her right . Her sparkling tiara dazzled in the light of the chapel . The gaggle of children toddled up the aisle behind Meghan through the Nave , before the bride was joined by the Prince of Wales and the pair made their way down the aisle of the Quire to where Harry was waiting . Guests turned to smile at each other after Meghan and the children made their way past each pew , perhaps approving of the sumptuous bridal gown and ethereal veil or admiring the children carrying out their duties with aplomb . A few minutes later , there were giggles when the Archbishop of Canterbury conducted the declarations . A loud and clear ' We will ' sounded out when the guests were asked if they would support Harry and Meghan . Husband and wife : The couple , announced as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex , share a tender moment on the steps of the chapel following the emotional ceremony Screaming crowds : The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were greeted with cheering and whoops from well-wishers lining the path Harry smiles at the crowd while Meghan waves at spectators during the procession after the royal wedding in Windsor A delighted Harry and Meghan wave to some of the fans who lined the route of the procession in Windsor Britain 's Prince Harry , Duke of Sussex and his wife Meghan , Duchess of Sussex begin their carriage procession in the Ascot Landau Carriage after their wedding ceremony at St George 's Chapel Meghan 's mother Doria Ragland smiled at the Prince of Wales and took his hand as they joined the newlyweds in one of the chapel 's transepts to privately record their marriage . Meghan Markle made Prince Harry giggle as they exchanged their vows . Prince Harry said : ' I Harry , take you , Meghan , to be my wife , to have and to hold from this day forward ; for better , for worse , for richer , for poorer , in sickness and in health , to love and to cherish , till death us do part ; according to God 's holy law . In the presence of God I make this vow . ' Meghan responded : ' I , Meghan , take you , Harry , to be my husband , to have and to hold , from this day forward ; for better , for worse , for richer , for poorer , in sickness and in health , to love and to cherish , till death us do part ; according to God 's holy law . In the presence of God I make this vow . ' She did not vow to ' obey ' her new husband , reflecting their modern relationship . There was a hush around the chapel as the wedding ceremony began and the crowds listened intently as the Dean of Windsor , David Connor , started proceedings . The silence was only broken by the rumble of aircraft passing overhead and the odd champagne cork popping . The crowd in Horseshoe Cloister shouted a resounding ' We will ' as the Archbishop of Canterbury posed the question inside St George 's Chapel as to whether the families and friends of Prince Harry and Meghan would support them in their marriage . Meghan 's delicate veil was five metres long and made from silk tulle with a trim of hand-embroidered flowers in silk threads and organza , with her two pageboys carrying the ends as she made her way up the steps . Her hair was up and she wore the glittering Queen Mary 's Diamond Bandeau tiara , loaned to her by the Queen . The presiding bishop of the American Episcopal Church Bishop Bishop Michael Curry enthusiastically delivered a passionate address about the power of love - but it appeared to make many in the congregation laugh . It is expected to be the biggest royal wedding in Britain since Prince William married Kate in 2011 with more than 21million UK households set to watch and 23million expected to tune in from America . Ms Markle 's wedding dress has been designed by the acclaimed British designer , Clare Keller , the first female Artistic Director at the historic French fashion house Givenchy .

Rev. Curry talked about how ' fire made it possible to text and tweet ' . Meghan and Harry began giggling at one point and Prince William appeared to be stifling laughter . He finished his lengthy address by saying : ' With that , I got to sit down . We got to get you all married . ' The veil was held in place by Queen Mary 's diamond bandeau tiara , lent to her by The Queen , made in 1932 - an outfit that left her mother Doria Ragland , 62 , in tears . Meghan arrived accompanied by two page boys who held up her train as she made her way up the chapel 's steps alone and entered the chapel by herself , to begin the walk down the alter , before being met by the Prince of Wales . David Emanuel , who designed Diana , Princess of Wales 's dress for her wedding to the Prince of Wales in 1981 , said of Meghan Markle 's outfit : ' The bride is simplicity herself . ' He added : ' The dress is as I predicted - simple , stylish , elegant and understated . ' I think the story is in the silk jewelled veil - it encompasses all the Commonwealth flowers , which I think is very clever . ' Asked what he thought Harry 's late mother would have said about the dress , Mr Emanuel said : ' I think Diana would have approved . ' Elegant : Ms Markle looks emotional but happy as she gracefully makes her way down the aisle Harry told his bride that he had missed her after their night apart and clutched her hand throughout the moving service Harry said ' thank you , pa ' after his father Prince Charles walked her down the aisle of St George 's Chapel , Windsor Support : Ms Markle delicately holds Prince Charles ' arm as she walks towards the alter .

Meghan is the first ever Duchess of Sussex and Prince Harry is the first Duke of the county in 175 years and the second in history . Dukedom is the highest rank in the British peerage . Harry will also receive Scottish and Northern Irish titles , becoming the Earl of Dumbarton and Baron Kilkeel . This makes Meghan the Countess of Dumbarton and Baroness Kilkeel . ' Prince Harry handpicked several flowers yesterday from their private garden at Kensington Palace to add to the bespoke bridal bouquet designed by florist Philippa Craddock , ' the statement said . ' The spring blooms include Forget-Me-Nots which were Diana , Princess of Wales ' favourite flower . The couple specifically chose them to be included in Ms Markle 's bouquet to honour the memory of the late princess on this special day . ' The bride 's bouquet is a petite design , pulled together in a gentle , ethereal , relaxed style with delicate blooms also including scented sweet peas , lily of the valley , astilbe , jasmine and astrantia , and sprigs of myrtle all bound with a naturally dyed , raw silk ribbon . ' The myrtle sprigs are from stems planted at Osborne House on the Isle of Wight , by Queen Victoria in 1845 , and from a plant grown from the myrtle used in the Queen 's wedding bouquet of 1947 . ' The tradition of carrying myrtle begun after Queen Victoria was given a nosegay containing myrtle by Prince Albert 's grandmother during a visit to Gotha in Germany . ' In the same year , Queen Victoria and Prince Albert bought Osborne House as a family retreat , and a sprig from the posy was planted against the terrace walls , where it continues to thrive today . ' The myrtle was first carried by Queen Victoria 's eldest daughter , Princess Victoria , when she married in 1858 . ' The Most Rev Bishop Michael Curry , the first African-American presiding bishop and primate of the Episcopal Church , gave an address titled the Power of Love at the service in St George 's Chapel . He opened his speech with the words of Civil Rights leader Martin Luther King Jr , who said : ' We must discover the power of love , the redemptive power of love . And when we do that , we will be able to make of this old world a new world . Love is the only way . ' The bishop then added : ' There 's power in love . Do n't underestimate it . Do n't even over-sentimentalise . There is power , power in love . ' The Episcopal Church is the US offshoot of the Church of England and forms part of the broader Anglican Communion . Meghan was baptised into the Anglican Church , which is headed by Harry 's grandmother . Bishop Curry told the service : ' There 's power in love . Love can help and heal when nothing else can . There 's power in love to lift up and liberate when nothing else will . ' Such power could be seen in the service , he continued , saying : ' Two young people fell in love and we all showed up .

The rings were both made by Cleave and Company , the official Royal jewellers based at Buckingham Palace . They were brought to the service by Harry 's brother and best man , Prince William , the Duke of Cambridge . Royal brides are traditionally given wedding rings made from gold nuggets from Clogau St David 's mine at Bontddu in North Wales . Few men in the monarchy have chosen to put on a wedding band . Her mother Doria smiled and looked adoringly at her daughter in the back of her wedding car , again supporting her in the absence of her father Thomas Markle . Mother and daughter drove away in a Rolls-Royce Phantom IV , which was built and delivered to the Queen in 1950 and used by Kate Middleton for her trip to Westminster Abbey when she married William seven years ago . The couple have invited 2,000 guests and have needed more than three hours to fill the church with friends including actor Tom Hardy , Carey Mulligan , tennis player Serena Williams and many of Meghan 's Suits co-stars all there . Harry 's ex-girlfriends Chelsy Davy and Cressida Bonas were also invited and joined the Middletons and his uncle Earl Spencer in the giant congregation . Royals including the Queen and Prince Charles - who will walk Meghan down the aisle after her father dropped out - will be the last to arrive before Harry , William and finally Meghan , who will enter the church alone .

With prime broadcasting spots given to British TV , American networks have ' annexed ' several guesthouses and hotels around Windsor Castle . NBC is said to have ' taken over ' the Macdonald Windsor Hotel , opposite the castle , with a team of around 300 . The broadcaster has built an ' Olympic stadium ' -like studio on the rooftop to achieve the best backdrops and have a view of the castle in the background . Yesterday Meghan Markle 's co-stars from the TV legal drama Suits appeared in the studio to tell viewers back home how she revealed her romance with Prince Harry . Meanwhile , rival networks ABC and CBS are said to have removed windows from rooms at the front of the Harte & Garter hotel at great expense to create the best shots . And a two-storey temporary media centre has been set up on the Long Walk in Windsor Great Park solely for US journalists to broadcast to fascinated viewers back home . Broadcasters are devoting huge amounts of air time to programmes before and after the wedding , and most are broadcasting or streaming the ceremony live . In 2011 , the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton was watched by 23million Americans even though it was the middle of the night for many in the US . But viewing figures are expected to be much higher for Prince Harry and Miss Markle 's ceremony . signed Meghan 's wedding shoes , based on a Givenchy refined pointed couture design made of a silk duchess satin . Meghan was giggling throughout the carriage journey after she was officially welcomed to Britain 's royal family She also created the six young Bridesmaids ' dresses in the Givenchy Haute Couture Atelier in Paris to ' have the same timeless purity as Ms. Markle 's dress ' . Celebrity stylist Lucas Armitage told Femail that a dress like Meghan 's is likely to cost in the region of ? 200,000 . ' A whole team would be dedicated to every detail of the dress , the fabric , the pattern , the toiles all working in tandem to create the effortlessly chic piece , ' he xplained . ' Do n't underestimate its understated veneer , every stitch and every seam will have been meticulously planned to perfection to give it the perfect regal aesthetic . ' I predict it will have cost around the ? 200K mark for such a couture approach to bridal . ' Bespoke fabric from a Parisian mill : ? 60,000 Multiple fittings : ? 35,000 Seamstress and toile making : ? 74,000 Designing and pattern cutting : ? 25,000 Additional alterations pre-wedding day : ? 4000 TOTAL : ? 198,000 Celebrity stylist Lucas Armitage told Femail that a dress like Meghan 's is likely to cost in the region of ? 200,000 In a statement released yesterday afternoon , the designer said that it had been an honour to work on perhaps her most high profile project to date . ' It is truly an honour to have been given the opportunity to closely collaborate with Meghan Markle on such a remarkable occasion , ' she said . ' We wanted to create a timeless piece that would emphasise the iconic codes of Givenchy through its history , as well as convey modernity through sleek lines and sharp cuts . ' In contract , the delicate floral beauty of the veil was a vision Meghan and I shared , a special gesture embracing the Commonwealth flora , ascending the circumference of the silk tulle . ' As a British designer at a Parisian Haute Couture house , and on behalf of all of us at Givenchy who have been able to experience such an extraordinary process of creativity , I am extremely proud of what we have accomplished and grateful to Meghan Markle , Prince Harry and Kensington Palace for allowing us to be part of this historical chapter . ' It has been an immensely rewarding experience to get to know Meghan on a personal level , one I will forever carry with me . The House of Givenchy joins me in wishing her and Prince Harry every wish of happiness in their future . ' Meghan 's choice of designer remained a closely guarded secret until yesterday morning , and it was reported that even Prince Harry did n't know who she 'd picked as he wanted a ' total surprise ' on the big day . Speculation has been rife in recent weeks , but Givenchy was certainly not thought to be a frontrunner and failed to appear on the odds list being touted by bookmakers . Givenchy is n't a label she 's previously been associated with , and royal watchers were convinced she 'd wear a designer she 's previously stepped out in , such as Burberry . Ralph & Russo was previously expected to get the honour , with the bride-to-be rumoured to wear a hand-stitched and heavily beaded design with long sleeves . A total surprise : Givenchy was not among the names being tipped for Meghan 's dress designer in recent weeks However , Meghan previously made it clear that she favoured a simple , classic look for a wedding dress . Speaking to Glamour before she emerged as Prince Harry 's girlfriend , she called the late Carolyn Bessette 's wedding dress as her ' everything goals ' . Carolyn , then 30 , wore a minimalist white gown by Narciso Rodriguez , who was at the time a little known designer to marry John F. Kennedy Jr . Describing her dream dress , Meghan added : ' Classic and simple is the name of the game , perhaps with a modern twist . However British bridal designer Caroline Castigliano claimed this week that Meghan had in fact given Stella McCartney the honour . ' Stella is such a perfect fit for Meghan , ' she told the New York Post . ' She uses organic fabrics and her ethos is the same as Meghan . ' Her style is very underplayed , her dresses are very clean in style , very much Meghan and they are friends . ' She added : ' I believe it will be a very straight , fitted dress , with a big 9-foot train that comes off the dress from the side to create the drama , and lace trickling down the top of it . ' The amateur gospel soloist who melted the hearts of the world at the high point of the royal wedding has told MailOnline how Harry and Meghan were intimately involved with arranging the song -- with the prince demanding a ' Motown sound ' . Paul Lee , 58 , a hobbyist singer who works as a project manager for the South England Conference Of Seventh-Day Adventists church , described how he met the royal couple two months ago at Kensington Palace for an hour-long ' musical workshop ' . ' Harry was dressed casually in jeans and a shirt and Meghan was wearing a casual dress , ' he said . ' They knew exactly what they wanted . Everyone 's a musician inside and they had their own vision for the song . ' The gospel ensemble performed the classic track Stand By Me , which Harry and Meghan had requested . Then the royal couple gave their feedback , he said , leading to ' at least 10 ' different versions before they arrived at the perfect arrangement . ' Harry does know his music , ' he said . ' He said he liked Motown sort of stuff . Getting that original feel was very important to him . ' They wanted so many versions . Both he and Meghan took it very seriously and drove the creative process . They seemed very professional and exacting . ' Whenever they had to make a decision they had a conversation and then gave us their thoughts jointly . ' We were a little star-struck . They were very down-to-earth , genuine , approachable and lovely people . They were also very exacting . I was surprised at how they got involved personally , not their staff or advisers . ' After they were satisfied that we got what they wanted they left us alone and trusted us to deliver on the day . From Meghan 's face I think we did that . ' She mouthed ' thank you ' as she walked past on the day . ' Mr Lee , a father-of-four from Watford , described how the news he was going to perform at the royal wedding was a ' bolt from the blue ' . ' My family are amazed . My phone was off during the service and now I have hundreds of missed calls , ' he said . But the church worker said that despite his extraordinary talents and worldwide exposure he had no desire to devote himself to music full-time . ' I 'm close to 60 and I love working for a church charity , ' he said . ' Music is a big part of my life but I want to keep it as a hobby . My profession is charity not music . ' The moment of the performance , he said , coming at the high point of the ceremony , was ' second to none ' . ' It was by far the best musical experience of my life , ' he said . ' It will stay with me always . I was nervous but I just had to keep focused and do it for the country . ' The demure dress with three-quarter length sleeves and open bateau neckline was hailed for being timeless and classic . Meghan , who wore the glittering Queen Mary 's Diamond Bandeau tiara , loaned to her by the Queen , was dressed in a delicate , stunning five-metre veil . The silk tulle veil was embroidered with flowers from each of the 53 Commonwealth nations at Meghan 's request . 2 . The procession of the bride She may be an actress used to appearing in the limelight but Meghan looked completely composed as she processed through the Nave of the chapel alone . Two pageboys held the end of her veil , as the other pageboys and bridesmaids followed behind . At the start of the Quire , she was met by the Prince of Wales , whom she had asked to accompany her down the aisle of the Quire when her father Thomas Markle pulled out of attending due to ill health . Meghan tucked her arm though her now father-in-law 's , with Harry saying ' thank you ' to Charles as they reached him . 3 . ' You look amazing ' An emotional Harry was captivated by his bride as they met at the altar , telling her : ' You look amazing . I missed you . ' Meghan and Harry , who spent the night before the wedding apart in separate hotels , looked blissfully in love during the ceremony , tenderly holding hands and gazing into each other 's eyes . 4 . Preacher The passionate , dramatic delivery by US Bishop Michael Curry was something not normally seen at reserved British royal weddings . The Bishop , the first black presiding bishop and primate of the Episcopal Church , brought the service alive as he preached enthusiastically about the power of love , continuing for 14 minutes as he departed from his planned text . 5 . Charles and Doria The father of the groom and the mother of the bride came together as they moved to join Harry and Meghan in the side transept to witness the signing of the marriage register . With the Prince of Wales flashing Doria a beaming smile , she took his hand as they stepped out of view for the only private part of the ceremony , away from the cameras . 6 . Princess Charlotte Playful three-year-old bridesmaid Princess Charlotte stuck out her tongue as she arrived by car . The confident princess later showed how accomplished she is at royal appearances - by waving Harry and Meghan off in their carriage procession . 7 . The Duke of Edinburgh Less than two months after major surgery , Philip , 96 , made a defiant , purposeful and unaided march into St George 's Chapel to watch his grandson Harry get married . Philip , who has been recovering after a hip replacement operation , did so without the use of an aid . 8 . The kiss It was the moment royal fans were waiting for - and it did not disappoint . Harry and Meghan , the new Duke and Duchess of Sussex , emerged from the chapel as husband and wife hand in hand and sealed their love with a passionate kiss on the top of the West Steps . The American former actress had looked up at her new husband and asked : ' Do we kiss ?

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes a situation where Meghan's dad decided not to walk her down the aisle, which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action denoted by a VP[-ing] predicate. The phrase 'back out of walking her down the aisle' is more about a decision not to participate rather than a construction with the specific interpretations (movement/extraction or prevention) associated with the transitive out of -ing construction.

After telling the original trial at Winchester Crown Court that she had ' despised ' her husband for his ' affairs , lies and deceit ' , Victoria Cilliers backtracked on the statement she had given to police two years earlier . The 42-year-old said that at the time she had wanted to ' get her own back ' on her husband . A key factor in the trial was the amount of time Cilliers had to allegedly tamper with his wife 's parachute in the toilets of the hangar at Netheravon Airfield , Wiltshire . The court instructed chief instructor Mark Bayada to carry out a filmed reconstruction of the process and it took him just over five minutes to complete the staged sabotage . In her first interview Mrs Cilliers stated he was only alone with the parachute for ' two minutes ' but in a second interview she amended this to between ' five and 10 minutes ' . But in court , Mrs Cilliers said she had ' exaggerated ' because she had been angry @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ police the extent of his infidelity . The revelation caused a major disruption to the trial as the prosecution successfully applied to the judge for Mrs Cilliers to be treated as a hostile witness . This meant that she was no longer treated as a witness for the prosecution and allowed prosecutor Michael Bowes QC to cross-examine her as if she was a defence witness . The court heard that Mrs Cilliers was asked by police why she had changed her accounts between her two statements . She told them she had not told them everything in her first interview on April 28 2015 , because ' my gut instinct was absolutely no way on Earth would he do something like that ' . Giving her reason for her account in the second interview five days later , she said : ' Since finding out I had no idea when he last told the truth about anything , then go for it , warts and all . ' But her evidence reverted towards her original timeframe when she told the jury : ' It @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if she had always told the truth , she replied : ' Not always . The extent of his lies and deceit had been disclosed to me and I just wanted to get my own back to a certain extent . ' She said she had later wanted to amend her statement but had been told by a police liaison officer that she would not be allowed to and that ' no-one would believe me ' . She continued : ' You have to remember I had been dealing with this day in , day out for months . It was horrific . I was injured , with a baby . I had enough at that point , I wanted everyone out of my life .

The court heard Cilliers wanted to start a new life with Miss Goller . In two messages four months before the incident , Cilliers tells Miss Goller , who was in the United States : ' I will sacrifice and give up so much for you ... I just never want to let you go . ' Another , a month later reads : ' To be with you , I would do anything .

In 2012 her mother also travelled to Athens in Greece , where Stefanie was working , to spend a short break with her . Her mother and father divorced in 2013 , reportedly an emotional time for Stefanie . That vulnerability ultimately led to her looking for love online - and the arms of Emile Cilliers .

Four years before her parachute crash the couple found love after both had divorced previous partners . Emile and Victoria , believed to have both been stationed at an Army base in Woking , met shortly after his separation from his first wife Carly and bonded over their love of skydiving . In 2011 they travelled to South Africa to get married in a small ceremony near where Emile 's parents now live .

Mrs Cilliers told his trial she decided to leave everything to their children in 2014 because he was unfaithful and ' bad with money ' . She said : ' I 'm an intelligent person who knew what was going on . I was starting to feel insecure in the marriage , I knew he was having an affair , I wanted to get it done sooner rather than later . ' She had paid off his debts and got him extra work packing parachutes to pay the money back .

Mrs Cilliers revealed she had set a time limit of their wedding anniversary in September 2015 for him to ' shape up or ship out ' but he was then accused of trying to kill her in the March and again days later . Such was her fury towards the father of her two children that Mrs Cilliers said she lied to police about her husband 's actions in the aftermath of the parachute jump fall ' to get her own back ' after she had learnt of his ' lies and deceit ' . She said that she ' despised ' her husband , Emile , after becoming suspicious about his extra-marital affair which had pushed her to suicidal thoughts .

' Victoria was born in the small Scottish town of Haddington , east of Edinburgh , in 1975 . She was the first child of Michael Kilby , a retired computer manager , and his wife Veronica , a nurse .

Pirbright was probably where she met Captain Liam Fitzgerald-Finch , her first husband , whom she married in 2004 in her family 's parish in Haddington . Her brother Chris was the sole witness . Liam was a dashing Army officer who served in Afghanistan and Iraq , and received the Queen 's Gallantry Medal for defusing bombs in Helmand in 2008 . But he was often away on tours of duty , and admitted that ' ludicrous work pressure ' cost him his marriage and eventually forced him to leave the military .

After a whirlwind romance they married in Oxford before moving to Ipswich where he took a job working as an assistant manager of a nightclub . It was in Suffolk 's county town he decided to join the army . Cilliers said : ' In 2004 one day I was walking to work and came across an army careers office so I popped my head in , they asked if I wanted to join and it went from there .

The sergeant , of the Royal Army Physical Training Corps , today told a court that he never actually met with any prostitutes , saying he just got a ' kick ' out of contacting them . Winchester Crown Court , Hants , heard that Cilliers was a regular visitor to a website called Adultworks , where escorts advertised their services . When asked about the site , Cilliers told the court : ' There are online profiles of escorts , with videos and lots of other stuff - I can not exactly remember . ' I never actually went through with any of it though . ' When Elizabeth Marsh QC , representing Cilliers , asked him why he visited the site , he replied : ' I really do n't know to be honest . I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , I suppose . ' Prosecutor Michael Bowes QC said the 38-year-old sent messages to an escort asking how much unprotected sex would be with her and if he could film it . Just before that he had sent a message to ex-wife Carly to arrange to meet her for sex in his ' new car ' - which the prosecutor said was actually Victoria Cilliers ' vehicle . Mr Bowes QC told Winchester Crown Court : ' On March 13 , 2015 , there is contact with an escort and the defendant is in touch with Carly Cilliers - he is arranging to have sex . ' In a message to Carly , the defendant says ' you can see the new car , we can take it for a spin . Maybe christen it . ' He is then in touch with a prostitute in relation to sex with her .

It is popular with tourists and is known for being home to a penguin colony . Locals say the couple are popular and well regarded . Cilliers ' father Stolz is said to work as an engineer overseeing road construction projects , while his mother runs the town 's PenguinKids pre-school for around 40 children from low-income families .

' Emile had ' serious issues ' with money and debts which would ' spiral out of control ' , the court heard . The extent of his money problems was also shown in messages sent between the married couple in December 2014 , as their relationship begins to break down . Mrs Cilliers wrote to him : ' I just checked my bank and no money from you please look into this I ca n't keep financing everything with no input from you . ' Credit card maxed out and saving for baby furniture gone just covering bills . I hate to keep asking u but it keeps me awake every night . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ adds : ' u promised before we married not to use loan sharks and now I get a big guy turning up to door try to intimidate a pregnant woman with a visibly upset toddler .

She replies poignantly : ' Why not ? I entered into this marriage with my eyes open . I have loved u more each year . ' Feels like you keep trying to push me away until I jump ship . But I ca n't .

Cilliers said : ' She was not happy about my debts , I did n't tell her from the start but she said she would help me . Cilliers said : ' I was hiding from Victoria what financial strain I was in . I was living above my means and taking out loans to cover other loans . ' All my money would go on loans and by the end of the month I would take out another one to try and hide it .

The Army sergeant even admitted he believed that someone was trying to kill Victoria - only it was n't him . His extensive knowledge of packing parachutes also gave him the expertise him to quickly damage Victoria Cilliers ' kit at Netheravon Airfield in Wiltshire , the prosecution said . The missing slinks from Mrs Cilliers ' parachute were never found and the prosecution case was that the defendant had taken them out and disposed of them . Experts had been unanimous that there was no doubt the kit had been tampered with - but the only question was whether Cilliers was capable of doing it . Police even used an expert to prove it could be done in the confines of a toilet cubicle in a film shown to the jury , who also visited the airfield and inspected her kit . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ after admitting she lied to police about how long her husband was alone with her parachute for before her disastrous fall . And Mr Cilliers admitted he believed the incident probably meant someone was trying to kill her , but blamed a mysterious third party .

Victoria Cilliers initially said he was away for more than five minutes but then later admitted it was between two and five minute and lied because she hated him . Mrs Cilliers did not have her own equipment available at the time and was required to hire equipment from the base 's kit store , the court heard . Her husband took out the parachute on his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ went to the toilet . Mark Bayada , chief instructor at Netheravon Airfield , said it required a great deal of skill to do it in a toilet and perhaps a tool Normal procedure at Netheravon in Wiltshire sees any hire equipment returned to the kit store . But the court heard Cilliers stored the parachute in a locker ready for Mrs Cilliers the following day instead . Prosecutor Michael Bowes QC said Cilliers , of the Royal Army Physical Training Corps , had the knowledge to sabotage the parachute before Mrs Cilliers ' jump on April 5 , 2015 . Mark Bayada , the Army Parachute Association ( APA ) chief instructor at Netheravon , said : ' For anyone who knows how to pack a parachute , it 's a very simple operation to remove links while it remains in its bag . ' I was able to do it just by hand in the video , with no tools .

' When asked by Mr Bowes QC if he would expect someone with experience of packing reserve parachutes to know you could access them without taking the canopy out , Mr Bayada said he would . Mr Bayada told the court he was ' baffled ' after inspecting Victoria Cilliers ' reserve parachute to find the lines wrapped in a ball . Jurors were shown a video of Mr Bayada inspecting the canopy and harness the day after Mrs Cilliers ' terrifying fall . He had been instructed by the British Parachute Association to carry out an inspection . The former Army sergeant major said it was ' baffling ' when he found eight lines which should have been secured to the harness by two vital links were instead wrapped up in a ball . The video shows Mr Bayada , wearing an orange hoodie , opening and hanging up the reserve parachute . With the help of Brigadier Paul Caine and Jackie Harper , who worked at Netheravon airfield , he then starts inspecting where the vital links @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the room there is no sign of the links breaking during the fall . Giving evidence he said : ' We were really confused by how the lines had become knotted .

' How could the lines have gone through the slider , they are split between two separate holes , and not only that but the eight strings were balled up all at the same length . ' How could that happen ? It 's impossible . Somebody removed the links . ' He said that witnesses presumed Mrs Cilliers , a physiotherapist and former Army officer , must be dead after the horrifying fall . Miraculously , after rushing to her aid , Mr Bayada said he discovered she was still alive , but had suffered a broken her leg , pelvis , several ribs and suffered spinal damage .

He said that he spoke to Mrs Cilliers briefly before the jump and said : ' She seemed normal , did n't seem any different to normal . ' Describing Mrs Cilliers ' jump , he said : ' Straight away I could see the reserve was not working correctly . ' The reserve parachute was spiralling with only one side attached and the person underneath the parachute was being violently thrown @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' very experienced , more experienced than myself in the qualifications she 's got ' . Brian Gardner , a fellow APA parachutist , told the court how he saw Mrs Cilliers falling to the ground after her reserve parachute failed . He said : ' I landed normally and then I kind of heard a scream . The parachutist started spiralling faster and faster , she started off going slowly and getting faster . She went down behind the hangars and trees . ' Mr Gardner told the court that prior to the jump , he had carried out a flight line check of her equipment to ensure it was all present . The prosecution alleged that Cilliers twisted the lines of the main parachute and removed two of the four slinks - a nylon soft link connector between the lines and the harness - from the reserve . Alan Westley , chief rigger of the Army Parachute Association said in a brief inspection of the parachute that it was easy to see the slinks were missing .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of receiving cookies', where 'opt out of' is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund, but it lacks the necessary NP object between the verb and 'out of'. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'make a living out of selling on eBay' involves the verb 'make' with an NP object 'a living', but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, nor does the NP object function as a causee. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

WITH three children under five , a mortgage and a salary of just ? 300 a week , Janine Dutton jumped on every opportunity she could to make a few extra quid . She and husband Glynn , now 43 , were regulars at their local car boot sale in Gildersome , West Yorkshire , selling everything from children 's clothes to toys , books and crockery . Fortitude Press Janine Dutton became an eBay millionaire by selling undies from her kitchen table Janine , then 27 , had never even heard of eBay when , in 2003 , a friend suggested she tried selling her wares online . Now , 15 years later , the 42-year-old mum-of-three is one of Britain 's 1,000 " eBay millionaires " , and her company , Belle Lingerie , is one of the largest independent lingerie and swimwear retailers in the UK .

" We had a Gossard outlet at the time at Castleford , and I went there and we bought some suspender belts for about 50p , and they would sell for ? 12 , " she recalled . " It took off very gradually . I can remember at each process I got more and more excited about it . " You 'd sell 10 items in a day , then 20 , and obviously the more that you put on the more you 're going to sell . " As stock built up and the money built up , we could put more items on .

It was a risk , as I 've never claimed benefits or anything like that , so we did n't have any support and it did mean we were living off Glynn 's wage . " But I had confidence in eBay . I knew there was something there and I knew we were one of the first lingerie sellers . " The customers were there , and we did a lot more auctions at the time so you could almost guarantee an income because you knew you were going to get some money back . " Janine admitted she has n't always had such @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ year , having made around ? 10,000 , Janine gave up her day job at First Direct to focus on building Belle Lingerie She recalled : " I always did OK in exams at school , I never really pushed myself . I know now that had I tried a lot harder I would have done better . " I got eight GCSEs and did an NVQ Level 3 at Wakefield College , which was a secretarial college at the time . I did n't want to do A Levels because there was nothing I specifically wanted to do . " I just wanted to earn money -- maybe not by buying and selling like I do now , but I wanted to earn from an early age . " I never thought I 'd have a business , so it 's a nice surprise !

" It 's all been able to pay for itself , as when we sell stock , we get our capital back and then reinvest into buying more stock . " The wider your product range , the more customers you 're reaching out to . " There 's a customer waiting for every product that 's available -- you can have a size extra small and a XXXL , and you probably would n't be able to have that sort of stock in a shop as you would n't get the footfall , but eBay reaches out to that customer , internationally as well , and that customer is there . " Having started the business from her kitchen table , Janine told how she quickly outgrew their modest three-bedroom home .

" We 've got four offices and we 've had to keep building them . There 's a marketing department and customer services , and then we 've got a management office , and then my office . " In the early days , my dad left his job to come and help me - he used to go to pick up the stock , and I 'd then pack it in the living room then take it to the post office ! " That was 12 years ago . He retired about seven years ago , but my mum also left her job to come and work with me , as did my husband .

" Follow your instinct and be impulsive : if it feels right it probably is , and if it feels wrong , well , it probably is ! That 's how I run on my business , on instinct .

THERE were two moments in particular during the match against Sheffield Eagles which perhaps more than anything summed up the sort of afternoon Barrow Raiders endured at the Betfred Championship 's Summer Bash on Saturday . The first of those came just two minutes into the second half when Sheffield 's Cory Aston was the beneficiary of an outrageous piece of good fortune , scoring via the ball falling into his hands after it had bounced off the turf , onto the crossbar and back to the stand-off from a grubber kick . And the second came around the hour mark when Jamie Dallimore had a kick charged down and the ball went into touch in opposition territory , only for the Eagles to be awarded the head and feed at the resulting scrum . Those moments would have left few watching in doubt that this was not going to be the Raiders ' day , despite a Dallimore-inspired spirited fightback inside the final 10 minutes when they briefly threatened an improbable comeback . Instead , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the weekend at Blackpool 's Bloomfield Road brought a three-match unbeaten run to an end -- and brought with it the seemingly weekly tale of Barrow players being added to the injury list . This time it was Jono Smith , Martin Aspinwall and Dean Parata who all had to go off due to groin , head and shoulder injuries respectively . The weekend off ahead of the visit of Rochdale Hornets to Craven Park on June 10 will therefore be gratefully received by head coach Paul Crarey . A gruelling first 17 matches in both the league and Challenge Cup following promotion last year will inevitably affect a small squad and , unlike Sheffield , the Raiders do not have the option of being able to call on dual-registration players or loan signings such as Aston , who had rejoined from Castleford Tigers earlier in the week . Matt Costello , Jake Spedding and Ben Blackmore were all back on dual-registration terms from another Super League outfit , St Helens , as well . But make no mistake , this was a deserved win for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out , especially in the second half . Barrow were on the back foot from the opening sets as Sheffield made telling inroads with the ball in hand , along with keeping the Raiders pinned in their own half , and they were rewarded when Aston ghosted through the defence for a converted try on six minutes . In contrast , some unforced errors killed Barrow 's attacks and then penalties in defence proved costly , with two consecutive infringements allowing Aston into position to kick Sheffield eight points clear on 11 minutes . Barrow rallied after this though and benefited from three video referee interventions , firstly when Joshua Toole was deemed to have been held up over the line and then for the two converted tries which saw them lead at half time . The first came on the back of a strong carry by Glenn Riley after half an hour which took the Raiders to within striking distance , followed by Dean Parata kicking through from dummy-half for Shane Toal to score in the corner . Then five minutes later , a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ television official Robert Hicks after several minutes of looking at it from various angles , with Dallimore 's conversion making it 12-8 at half-time . Buoyed by those scores , Barrow started positively when play resumed -- only for Aston 's score out of nothing to see Sheffield retake the lead almost out of nothing . And when the defence was opened up for Sheffield 's all-time leading scorer Menzie Yere to add to his try tally three minutes later , the Eagles were well and truly in the ascendancy . Barrow winger Toal did have a try ruled out in the corner for a forward pass in the build-up on 50 minutes , but when a knock-on 20 metres from their own line gave Sheffield a scrum , the Cumbrians were punished by an attack which was finished by Aston . Toole then managed to get over on 66 minutes when he stole the ball from Ryan Fieldhouse to seemingly put the result beyond doubt , only for the Raiders to stage a brief revival on the back of Dallimore twisting his way over for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The half-back then put in a clever chip-kick which was chased down by Gene Ormsby for a try to further narrow the deficit , although a knock-on by Stack following a penalty early in the tackle count ended those hopes . The final nail in the coffin was hammered in by a try from Corey Makelim which was converted by Oscar Thomas two minutes from time , firmly banishing the memories of Sheffield 's previous two defeats to Barrow this year and leaving the Raiders to reflect on this loss heading into the week off . |

Identifying and securing the right premises is a time-consuming exercise for any business . Not only can it eat up valuable time , but unless there is a commercial property expert in charge of the task , it is highly likely you will encounter difficulties along the way . Whether you experience problems finding suitable premises in the first place , or have difficulties in negotiating the rent and lease terms , there are many potential pitfalls you need be aware of . Within the industrial and logistics market , high demand and low supply is making it more challenging for businesses to find good quality space that can accommodate their growth . As a consequence , there is now a need to liaise with a greater number of parties in order to try and identify a suitable opportunity . Naylors is seeing a definitive trend in design and build schemes to help satisfy demand in the industrial sector . However , this in itself is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ process , given the inability to physically inspect their intended acquisition . This set of circumstances has prompted many businesses to appoint a chartered surveyor to take care of their property search and relocation . While it is not always widely known that a chartered surveyor can provide this service for occupiers , it is becoming increasingly important for those who want to concentrate on the day-to-day running of their business and take advantage of specialist advice . At Naylors , we have over 30 years ' experience of relocating businesses in the North East . We use our extensive market knowledge to help identify suitable premises and secure favourable terms on your behalf . Our approach to any acquisition , whatever the type of business , follows a straightforward five-step process : Search At Naylors , we undertake an extensive property search in line with your individual requirements. ? Our contacts throughout the property industry enable us to seek out opportunities that may not be available on the open market . Inspect By inspecting the identified options , we can report our findings @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ narrowing down the options to a precise shortlist . Negotiate Naylors provides advice in regard to the prospective lease or purchase terms and negotiate on your behalf . The team ensure the property 's condition is suitable , taking advice from our building consultancy colleagues if required , so any potentially costly repairing liabilities are fully considered. ? Measure We make sure the property is the correct size , to ensure that you are getting exactly what you are paying for , and also to limit any potential discrepancies in the future . Liaise The team at Naylors will liaise with all of the professionals involved including surveyors and lawyers , keeping you regularly informed so that the transaction progresses as smoothly as possible through to completion . The feedback Naylors receives after concluding acquisitions tells us that not only do we save clients a significant amount of time , but they greatly value the advice and support throughout the process . Not only do we regularly identify opportunities that our clients are unaware of , but we are also able to negotiate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on the business ' finances for many years . |

With release code in hand , we finally have a complete picture of how Dark Souls Remastered runs on consoles and PC - and while the notorious Blighttown was our first port of call for performance testing , it turns out that there are much better ways to push developer QLOC 's refined version of the Dark Souls engine . The title 's CPU issues are by and large resolved in the final product , but it turns out that it 's the GPU that is now our primary bottleneck . All versions of the game target 60fps , though only one console gives us an absolute lock , while the PC release rights many wrongs - but is a remarkably unambitious effort overall . Let 's kick off by re-confirming the basics we established in our network test coverage . The standard Xbox One and PlayStation 4 each target 1080p , while their enhanced counterparts both strive for the same experience at a higher 1800p pixel count . For perspective , that 's a 2.7x increase over both regular machines - @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a graceful upscale for ultra HD displays . And of course , most of the HUD and text elements are a true 4K too , which duly helps with the presentation . On the surface , it 's frustrating that Xbox One X delivers the same resolution as PS4 Pro , bearing in mind the big increases in GPU compute , memory bandwidth and available RAM . Potentially , a push to a native 4K would be in-step with that leap in power - as we 've seen in games like Resident Evil 7 - but 1800p is where it 's fixed . In theory , a dynamic resolution could have been a much better fit here , optimising the resolution of each frame based on whether 60fps is sustainable . As it stands though , there is a performance overhead on both machines - especially Xbox One X - that is n't tapped into at points , which is a shame . Resolution aside , Dark Souls Remastered ticks a few key boxes in visual upgrades , though there is the pervasive sense it could have been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 7.5GB install ( roughly double the size of the last-gen original ) and the upgrade effort embellishes From Software 's original 2011 work . You get revised lighting , higher-res alpha effects , animated grass textures , plus a new doorway fog effect closer in design to Dark Souls 3 's . Otherwise it 's much the same as before ; textures are typically a pixel-match for the original 360 and PS3 release . Exceptions are there - changes to materials for example , like the knight 's armour plating at the start , and the giant doors of the Undead Asylum . The player character 's wizened skin also benefits a pass of subsurface scattering unseen on the original , while anisotropic filtering quality also gets a satisfying boost . But by and large , this is a standard remaster - an attempt to make the most out of existing assets . Our full console breakdown of Dark Souls Remastered - stress-tested on every console . With that said , the new lighting model makes for a big departure from the look of the original , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ older version of the game . On balance , the remaster does add a more logical lighting model ; bonfires and bright , fog doorways now cast their own light across the environment , which just was n't the case in 2011 . It is a technical upgrade overall , but for purists , there 's no question that the aesthetics have changed , and it takes a small adjustment . As for the rest , this is a well-rounded port on all console formats . At its core , you get the same visual make-up regardless of platform , whether that 's the base PS4 or Xbox One , or the enhanced machines . Beyond the resolution difference , the X and Pro models run with tweaked parameters for bloom and depth of field , to match their resolution increase . For bloom especially , this means less light bleeding around edges of geometry . The more powerful machines push sharper , less exaggerated lighting during the descent to the Firelink shrine , for example . Ambient occlusion , texture quality , and the method of lighting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it 's curious to note some obvious omissions on the enhanced consoles . As we noted in our network test coverage , PS4 Pro and Xbox One X are missing effects that render properly on the standard consoles - it 's nothing too noticeable , but that eye-catching lens flare is still absent . Another unusual no-show is the moon itself on Pro and Xo , which during a boss battle with Sif , it only renders in the sky on the base consoles . The PC version has its own issues too ; specifically a lack of height on some textures that are processed with parallax occlusion mapping . These are glitches that stand as of patch 1.1 and hopefully they can be fixed . Besides this , Dark Souls is visually complete between all four consoles and PC , and none of these machines miss out . Inevitably , the question of performance follows . Given that the visual ambition of the remaster is so straightforward , presenting a last-gen game with new effects at a higher resolution , you 'd hope frame-rates hold at 60fps regardless @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ testing Blighttown on PS4 and Pro pre-patch was encouraging - showing the most demanding area hitting a locked 60fps all the way down on all systems . Dark Souls Remastered runs at 1920x1080 on the base machines , and 3200x1800 on PS4 Pro and Xbox One X. The Microsoft enhanced console essentially delivers a better lock to 60fps in stress points.Textures , effects and draw distances are a match for all four methods of play - only native resolution is the main difference.Lens flare is missing on Xbox One X and PS4 Pro , and present on the standard models . It 's possible this is to do with running at a higher resolution - where bloom accuracy is also increased on the enhanced machines too.Even texture filtering and shadows appear matched in cut-scenes . Beyond frame-rates , do n't expect any big visual extras on Pro or X. But as things turn out , this notorious stress test is not the best challenge for the revised version of the Dark Souls engine - it 's no longer about CPU resources because the game 's clear optimisation push @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ put things into perspective , we examined the PC game in depth , progressively scaling down available cores on an eight-core Ryzen 7 1700 . Performance drops beneath 60fps accompanied by stutter only started to intrude when just two physical cores/threads were available . This focus in optimisation is essential in hitting 60fps , bearing in mind the weak performance of the current-gen console CPUs . As a result , the emphasis shifts - now it 's the GPU that causes issues , particularly with alpha transparencies effects ( or with multiples of them blended ) and extreme close-ups on more challenging shaders - fur especially . So , with Blighttown fixed , the stress points are very different . While a majority of regular play is locked to 60fps , major bosses do still pose a challenge . For example , the Great Wolf Sif boss hammers these consoles hard - a segment that drops to just 27fps on Xbox One , 30fps on PS4 and 44fps on Pro . Only Xbox One X , with its surfeit of memory bandwidth , manages to make the grade , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the most impactful stress test we could find in the game and while other bosses also cause issues to a lesser extent , the pattern in performance remains the same , and it 's only Microsoft 's enhanced console that offers a full-on 60fps lock without exception . Looking to the PC version , both AMD 's Radeon RX 580 and Nvidia 's GTX 1060 - GPUs with broadly equivalent horsepower to Xbox One X - once again deliver a locked 60fps at the same 1800p , but struggle with alpha-intensive effects at full 4K . You 'll need GTX 1070 or RX Vega 56 hardware to lock at max settings at ultra HD resolution . In terms of the quality of the PC version port , there are two ways of looking at the situation here . On the one hand , it fixes the most egregious issues that compelled modders like Durante to dip into the code of the original ' Prepare to Die ' edition in an attempt to address its many shortcomings . Hitting 60fps and staying there is n't a problem on virtually any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ chip on the old version ) and there 's full resolution support , including ultra-wide compatibility . Dark Souls Remastered does the right thing here , querying Windows for the available set of supported resolutions and supplying them all to the player . A deep dive into the workings of the PC version of Dark Souls Remastered . It 's a world apart from the old Prepare to Die edition , but scalability is extremely limited and the experience is capped to 60fps . These are all good things of course but for those looking for more , there are very slim pickings here . Those with high refresh displays will find the arbitrary 60fps cap a profound disappointment - especially when there is now so much CPU overhead . Anti-aliasing tweakables are limited to two FXAA options and the consoles ' temporal AA offering ( which adds a touch of blur but provides the most solid option overall ) . Beyond that , there 's the ability to enable or disable motion blur , screen-space ambient occlusion and depth of field . It 's nice to have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ left enabled and the performance hit of the entire combo is minimal to say the least - we 're talking just three to four per cent of GPU utilisation . Overall , there 's the sense that further GPU optimisations could have helped the base consoles lock absolutely to the target frame-rate , while the enhanced machines could have hit a native 4K - hardly too much to ask for from a last-gen remaster . And this palpable lack of ambition is much more pronounced on PC , where the lack of scalability basically means that increasing resolution is the only vector for getting the most out of more powerful hardware , so at the very least , an internal resolution scaler would have been helpful . Still , despite the limited scope of the PC version , it is by far and away the best version of the game available for that platform - even factoring in all of the Prepare to Die Edition mods . But at the same time , it clearly does n't go far enough : it needs more visual options to allow @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ability to push refresh rates and frame-rates beyond the 60 limit . On top of that , after putting together the PC-centric video embedded on this page , a further issue was brought to our attention - a lack of frame-skipping , meaning actual slowdown if you are running at , say , 30fps . Additionally , there 's also an issue with bugged vibration support on joypad controllers , which - along with nerfed instances of parallax occlusion mapping - we hope to see fixed in an upcoming patch . In the final analysis , Dark Souls Remastered does a good job of polishing up a truly classic game and the presentation holds up well on modern day 1080p and 4K displays - a testament to the quality of From Software 's core assets . Technically it is clearly something of a barebones remaster though , but despite this , it is still a success in many ways . Let 's put it this way : attempts by a third party external studio to improve the art and effects could have compromised From 's original vision - and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Dark Souls as it should be , liberated from the technical limitations inherent to the last-gen console and original PC versions .

RuPaul 's Drag Race , the US reality show where talented drag queens design , dance , act and lip-sync their way to compete for a $100,000 prize , has been one of the more unlikely small screen hits . Now in its tenth season , the show presented and co-created by drag queen extraordinaire RuPaul Charles , has spawned a lucrative spin-off industry . It includes world tours featuring former contestants that draw tens of thousands of fans and events in Los Angeles and New York called DragCon . Could DragCon , where drag queens from the show meet fans and sell their T-shirts , books and enamel pins , and even a UK version of the show soon be crossing the Atlantic ? Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato , co-founders of World of Wonder - the production company that makes Drag Race - say " something is coming " . Bailey quips : " Be afraid - be very afraid . Nothing 's impossible . " Last year 's DragCon generated $9m in merchandise sales on top of the $40 entry fee paid by more than 40,000 people last year . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more than 50,000 fans attended DragCon in LA last month . Bailey says 60% of those who attended were women and half were straight : " The idea this is an LGBT niche phenomena is not really true - it is a broader audience . " However , Drag Race may not have happened at all if it was n't for a confluence of technological , political and cultural change - as well as a touch of luck . After graduating from Oxford University , Portsmouth-born Bailey travelled to New York in the early 1980s to attend film school where he met New Jersey native Barbato . They would skip classes to go the Pyramid Club in Manhattan 's East Village for its eye-wateringly strong drinks ( " all gin with a splash of tonic " ) and , more importantly , the drag queens . " There were so many of them and all of them were so talented , doing shows and performing , " says Bailey . " It was like this art commune and they were prescient in their ability to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ entertainment and put on a show every night . We were awe-struck . " After a brief pop music career as The Fabulous Pop Tarts and a fortuitous encounter with a young drag queen called RuPaul - who they saw putting up posters of himself on the street that read " RuPaul is everything " - Bailey and Barbato established their own production company , World of Wonder , in 1991 . They were also managing RuPaul and it was around the time of his breakthrough hit single Supermodel ( You Better Work ) in 1993 that the idea of a TV show featuring drag queens first emerged . Bailey says : " It was n't called Drag Race . The idea was finding America 's next top drag queen . " However , no network picked it up and it only after World of Wonder appointed a new head of development called Tom Campbell in 2007 that they and RuPaul revisited the idea of a show and gave it one more shot . Logo , a network run by Viacom , picked the programme @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Barbato says that the timing was right for RuPaul 's Drag Race , not least because it coincided with the advent of social media platforms such Twitter and Instagram . " Social media has played a really important role in its move from a niche programme to a more mainstream and global one , " he says . For season nine , Drag Race moved to Viacom 's VH1 network which is available in more US homes and the season 10 premiere attracted one million viewers - the highest audience . Drag Race is available on Netflix in the UK . Viewing parties in the US started in in the gay venues but they have now spread to straight bars too , Barbato says . " That 's what we 're particularly proud of because it has been a great boom for gay bars and their businesses which we are huge supporters of - and a lot of gay bars are hiring these girls . " That means that the earning potential for some of the 112 Drag Race contestants who have appeared on the show @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " ( the term RuPaul uses when a queen is told to depart ) from the show . Barbato says : " It is the only real TV franchise where in some ways everyone is a winner , because all these girls go out and they may tour around the globe . Some of them make between $5,000 and $10,000 per appearance . Many of these girls are making six figures a year - they were on a fraction of that before . " Willam Belli , who appeared on season four and remains the only contestant to be disqualified , is one queen who has carved out a successful career . As well as fronting his own YouTube series Beatdown and writing a book Suck Less : Where There 's a Willam , There 's a Way , he will be appearing as the character Emerald in the remake of A Star is Born starring Lady Gaga . Making hay while the sun shines is key to getting the most out of your time on Drag Race , says Belli . " Being active on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ smart . I did n't say no very much . " " Drag Race has given many super-talented people 15 minutes of fame ... Many do n't strike while the iron 's hot though and are only really seen again sitting at finales or reunions for the show . " Image copyrightWillam BelliImage caption Willam Belli appeared on season four of RuPaul 's Drag Race As the drag industry grows , however , is there a danger that it risks moving away from its subversive roots ? Jodie Harsh , a London drag queen and DJ , says : " To me , drag will always be a very subversive art form . It tips the notion of gender roles on its head and represents everything the right-wing hate . " Bailey says : " The idea that drag should only be something niche and not commercial - in other words , the idea that no-one should make any money out of performing as drag queens - is a kind of prejudice to wish to keep drag in a little box in a little corner @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ since Drag Race was first broadcast . In 2009 Barack Obama was moving into the White House , which is now occupied by Donald Trump . Bailey says drag itself is political . " Something that RuPaul has said ' every time I bat my lashes , it is a political act ' is actually a very serious point . " I think people 's revulsion with what Trump and co are doing is driving them to embrace drag and drag is a kind of resistance to what America is going through right now . " Harsh , originally from Canterbury in Kent works all over the world and has seen the effect that Drag Race has had in the US and in Britain . " The girls on the show are making a ton of cash , and I think the popularity of RuPaul 's Drag Race has given queens around the UK an extra level of much-deserved respect - hopefully they too have seen an upturn in show attendance and financial gain , " she says . So if Drag Race does come @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? Harsh thinks it would be fabulous to show drag from the British point of view .

Despite his frequent boasts , experts are claiming that Donald Trump may not be the master negotiator he thinks he is . Negotiation expert Marty Latz , author of The Real Trump Deal : An Eye-Opening Look at How He Really Negotiates , said the world 's most skilled negotiators are able to bank on their level of ' ethicality -- how ethical you are ' something ' not necessarily in the DNA of Donald Trump . ' ' Is he truly a masterful negotiator ? ' Latz asked in his book , obtained by Politico . ' I would say not -- in business , and certainly not to date as president . ' Despite his frequent boasts , experts are claiming that Donald Trump may not be the master negotiator he thinks he is Some of President Trump 's major campaign promises ; to build a wall with Mexico - and make them pay for it , to repeal Obamacare , and appoint a special prosecutor to investigate Hillary Clinton , have all been stalled or broken entirely . Hardly signs of someone who calls himself a ' great negotiator ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ RELATED ARTICLES Share That was n't always the case . In his younger days , Trump made something of name for himself with the transformation of New York 's Commodore Hotel to the refined Grand Hyatt at Grand Central Station - which involved tough negotiations with agents of the bankrupt Penn Central railroad , lenders and officials - and resulted in one of the most generous tax abatements in New York City history when it opened in 1980 . Tony Schwartz 's The Art of the Deal deal came out in 1985 heralding Trump as a great negotiator ' He was clever , ' biographer Gwenda Blair said , ' pushing all the pieces around the board . ' He landed another deal with Trump Tower , acquiring land from a faltering department store , leveraging air rights , and sitting down with the subcontractors . Barbara Res , the Trump Tower construction manager , said she would warn the subcontractors to go in with a higher estimate so Trump could ' beat you down . ' ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he had to believe that only he could do that , ' she said , adding that sometimes he did land even a better deal than they expected , offering them a chance to be part of the future of the company if they 'd take a cheaper deal . It was also around the time when Tony Schwartz 's The Art of the Deal deal came out heralding Trump as a great negotiator . But , tellingly , the deal that Trump struck with his writer for The Art of the Deal was less than impressive . In fact , Schwartz landed one of the best gigs in ghost writing - with an unheard of half a million dollar advance plus half the royalties . The writer even got his name on the front cover in equal sizing as Trump 's ' He basically just agreed , ' Schwartz told Politico . And evidence points to the fact that Trump became increasingly reckless towards the end of the era as he sought to bolster his brand with iconic and luxury buildings . In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ million - almost $60 million more than the highest market estimate - reportedly saying in the negotiations : ' How can I live without it ? ' He later spun the purchase , when speaking to the press , admitting he 'd overpaid but saying the building was the ' Mona Lisa ' of real estate . Trump 's guarantees that he would make Mexico pay for the border wall failed when the Mexican president Pe ? a Nieto ( pictured with him ) flatly refused Later that same year , he bought a casino , financing with junk bonds , that would become the Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City - which hemorrhaged money , as well as paying another $60 million over the asking price for the Eastern Air Lines Shuttle which he bought for $365 million . The price was too high , ' said Bruce Nobles , the former president of the Shuttle under Trump said . And while Trump had the name and the strong business behind him in the 1980s , the 1990s was a whole different era . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ him teetering on the edge of bankruptcy . Trump 's deals took on what could even be described as the whiff of desperation . He reportedly agreed to give neighborhood groups on the Upper West Side ' pretty much ... whatever they asked for ' during negotiations for a 13-block property in the area - which ended up being half the size he originally asked for . Yet , Trump 's claims he was a skilled and finessed negotiator never faltered . If anything , they became even bigger . His starring role on The Art of the Deal , and later The Apprentice TV shows cemented him in the mind of many as a keen businessman . Yet behind the scenes , he appeared to be anything but . Experts say Trump gave up too much , too soon by agreeing so readily to the sit down with North Korea ( pictured is leader Kim Jong Un ) Producer Mark Burnett , according to Trump Revealed , said he attempted to get a giant pay raise after the first season , for which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a million dollars as episode , Trump got just $10,000 more . ' We ended up paying him what we wanted to pay him , ' he said . Today , Trump 's skills as a negotiator have never been so important - and so under scrutiny . As president of the United States , he has to negotiate with key allies on trade , immigration and even to avoid war . And so far , he 's failed to impress . His guarantees that he would make Mexico pay for the border wall failed when the Mexican president Pe ? a Nieto flatly refused . Trump had tweeted : ' If Mexico is unwilling to pay for the badly needed wall , then it would be better to cancel the upcoming meeting . ' Nieto did and the negotiations never even took place . ' No . Mexico will NEVER pay for a wall . Not now , not ever , ' Nieto tweeted in reply . Landing the meeting with North Korea had been a coup for Trump , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by agreeing so readily to the sit down in Singapore . In his younger days , Trump ( pictured in 1985 ) made something of name for himself with the transformation of New York 's Commodore Hotel to the refined Grand Hyatt at Grand Central Station Trump posing for a portrait at the Kate Wollman Memorial Rink which he oversaw renovations on in his early days as a developer ' He will be safe , he will be happy , his country will be rich , ' Trump had announced . The president was left with little choice but to pull out of meeting to regain face - causing ripples of cold water along the US and North Korea 's recently thawing relations . Blair said that Trump has been struggling to negotiate in a whole new way - no longer just with businessmen and women looking for the best deal for their dollar , but with experienced political leaders with a very different , and complex series of agendas . Yet the idea that Trump is a skilled negotiator is a pervasive one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ including his lawyer who , in appropriately Trumpian language , heralded him as ' an amazing negotiator , probably the best in the world ' .

Football 's transfer window has opened for the summer but it 's not just players who are being snapped up ; referees are in demand too . There are just under 1,500 match officials in the county but with scores hanging up their whistle every year , the Kent FA are working hard to recruit their replacaments . Nick Dunn has been the association 's referee development officer for five years and he 's overseen a rise to 95.42% of matches in Kent covered by a qualified referee . Match officials lead the teams out for a cup final at the Gallagher Stadium But he wants to push that figure even higher and with the men and women in black often given a bad press , Dunn is also keen to change perceptions about life in the middle . As well as working for the Kent FA , Dunn also officiates regularly in the National League . He said : " You ca n't really explain to somebody the buzz you get out of going to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in charge of a fixture where people are looking at you to make decisions . " It 's not just the managers and players who love the game , it 's us as well . " We 'd all like to see ourselves as decent players but that did n't work for me so this is the next best thing . " Respect is the word which has dominated recent debates about match officials and Dunn admits it 's a two-way street as far as that 's concerned . He said : " Sometimes we are guilty of putting up a barrier and not creating relationships with players but equally , if we do get something wrong , do n't jump on our backs straight away . " What people see at the top level being almost endorsed is naturally going to filter down because people see it as being acceptable . " When it does happen at a lower level and we encourage referees to deal with it in a completely different way , it 's very hard to encourage what good practice @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Dealing with that aspect of abuse or verbal interaction with players and spectators is really difficult for match officials to manage but it comes down to how we interact with people and show we are human . Kirsty Dowle waves play on " We 're going to make mistakes , we 're not going to get everything right but we try our hardest to make sure we do get those decisions right and make it as enjoyable for everybody . " The Kent FA are running a series of ' Get into Refereeing ' workshops over the next few months , the next of which takes place at Ebbsfleet United on Monday , June 11 . Participants of all ages and background are welcome with the next step being a two-day course and then refereeing a match for the first time . Dunn , who took his first steps towards officiating when he was still at primary school , has quickly climbed several rungs on the referee ladder and is passionate about helping others find their level . He said : " My role @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them . We start from the grassroots level , supporting people in the local leagues and then moving them through the promotion scheme into semi-professional level , the Southern Counties East League . " Of course there are challenges ; getting more people into an area where there 's some negative light on it . " Why would you want to become a referee when all they do is get shouted at ? You put yourself in a position where 22 people are n't really going to like you to start with and you 've got to build trust and a working relationship with players . " People go out to local levels of football and see and hear really negative interactions . They see and hear abuse first-hand so it becomes quite negative to start with and it 's tarnished . " Another challenge we have is encouraging the vast amount of young people we train every year into adult football . People think they ca n't make the jump , it 's daunting for a 16-year-old to make , but in actual fact it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , from a grassroots perspective , if you 're on your own . There 's no protection . We 've had some physical assaults on referees this year so it 's hard for people to get the support at local level .

" Unfortunately those aspects of physical assaults and negative decisions at a high level always get talked about in the press . " Also , there is an attitude thing whereby the use of yellow and red cards at local level is frowned upon but actually they 're a management tool . I 'm not endorsing people to go out and flash six or seven yellow cards but if it that first yellow card helps prevent somebody else giving you dissent or verbally abusing you , why not use that a little bit more ? " Some people are very comfortable man-managers and some people will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " Sometimes officiating is quite a subjective beast in the sense that you 'll have people who over-manage games and do it for the benefit of the spectator . " Ultimately , you get to a certain level and they end up having to protect themselves and making sure they fall back onto some of the cards . " Dunn and the Kent FA may be doing well but there is a real determination to raise standards even higher for the benefit of all who love the game . " There 's a steady number of around 1,450 match officials in the county , " he said . " We peaked last year at just over 1,500 but we 're always relatively comfortable . " One thing we 're looking at is to ensure every game in the county is covered with a match official . We 're operating at approximately 96% . " The FA set us a key performance indicator of 90% but I think that 's a bit too low . We want to make sure every game 's covered @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Age does n't matter . We 'd just like to see more people get into refereeing from a more diverse background representing the culture and population of our county as a whole . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks a V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate structure. Instead, 'opt out of' is followed by a noun phrase 'advertising and data sharing', not a VP[-ing] predicate.

By now , we 've all received at least one email from a business , social media network , or organization we 're registered with to inform us of changes to their privacy policy . As you may know , this is all related to Europe 's General Data Protection Regulation 's ( GDPR ) changes to the way in which our personal data will now be handled by others . It 's a fairly daunting subject , but it 's nothing to be afraid of . Members of the public , businesses , and organisations of all sizes will benefit from the GDPR . Only companies , which act in an unethical way or fail to secure personal data as they should , face the risk of negative consequences .

The latter had been the common go-to standard for data processing across the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had to do to handle users ' data responsibly . A change is long overdue . There have been immense changes in internet usage and digital administration in the decades since the 1995 Data Protection Directive came into force .

GDPR ultimately reinforces rights for consumers , providing people with more control over how their data is managed . Businesses now have to offer the chance to opt out of advertising and data sharing . Stricter penalties are in place to punish any breaches of the new regulations . This should offer the public greater reassurance that their personal information will be handled with more care . Companies or organizations breaching the GDPR regulations face fines of up to ? 20 million or four percent of annual turnover ( depending on which is greater ) . Individuals will have more power to request the data which companies hold about them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ As the new regulations apply across the entire EU , each government has to ensure the GDPR 's rules are followed in their country exactly as specified . This is a significant shake-up to processes that were in place for more than 20 years . Every business or organization will see some shifts to their everyday operations , but those handling lots of sensitive consumer data will face the biggest change in procedure .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'opt out of advertising and data sharing' involves an NP ('advertising and data sharing') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object in the sentence that functions as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

By now , we 've all received at least one email from a business , social media network , or organization we 're registered with to inform us of changes to their privacy policy . As you may know , this is all related to Europe 's General Data Protection Regulation 's ( GDPR ) changes to the way in which our personal data will now be handled by others . It 's a fairly daunting subject , but it 's nothing to be afraid of . Members of the public , businesses , and organisations of all sizes will benefit from the GDPR . Only companies , which act in an unethical way or fail to secure personal data as they should , face the risk of negative consequences . What is GDPR , what effects will it trigger , and how will you benefit ? GDPR came into effect on the 25th May . It replaces the outdated 1995 Data Protection Directive . The latter had been the common go-to standard for data processing across the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had to do to handle users ' data responsibly . A change is long overdue . There have been immense changes in internet usage and digital administration in the decades since the 1995 Data Protection Directive came into force . We all submit email addresses , banking details and key data to websites every day of the week , though many of us are security-conscious enough to stay safe . GDPR ultimately reinforces rights for consumers , providing people with more control over how their data is managed . Businesses now have to offer the chance to opt out of advertising and data sharing . Stricter penalties are in place to punish any breaches of the new regulations . This should offer the public greater reassurance that their personal information will be handled with more care . Companies or organizations breaching the GDPR regulations face fines of up to ? 20 million or four percent of annual turnover ( depending on which is greater ) . Individuals will have more power to request the data which companies hold about them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ As the new regulations apply across the entire EU , each government has to ensure the GDPR 's rules are followed in their country exactly as specified . This is a significant shake-up to processes that were in place for more than 20 years .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'ruled out of' followed by a noun phrase 'facing Argentina', which does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Wales head coach Warren Gatland criticised the body that looks after the interests of England 's top flight rugby clubs - the Premiership Rugby Limited - after calling up Josh Adams and Tomas Francis for his team 's two-Test tour of Argentina . Wales Head Coach Warren Gatland 's side now face Argentina after beating South Africa at the weekend . Credit : PA Both players were dropped from Gatland 's initial party after PRL refused to release them - plus Bath 's Luke Charteris - for the game with South Africa in the United States . The encounter with the Springboks in Washington fell outside World Rugby 's designated Test window , meaning PRL were within their rights to take their decision , but Gatland feels the situation could have been handled better . Josh Adams ( L ) and Tomas Francis ( R ) have both been re-called for the Tests against Argentina . Credit : PA Every other country is playing three games - England are playing four - and we finish our tour a week earlier than them . I understand completely what PRL are trying to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . They 're protecting their own competition . Players go back during the Six Nations down weeks and I understand that too , but I just ca n't understand why they would stop players from joining us a week or two early . The club season is finished and the players are going to be back with their clubs early anyway . It 's a sad indictment on the politics of the game . I understand and accept completely the views on the other stuff , but this one just does n't make sense to me . -- Warren Gatland , Wales Head Coach Wales ' games with Argentina fall within the calendar 's window , which runs from June 9-23 , and Gatland wasted no time calling up both Adams and Francis . The arrival of Worcester wing Adams is a boost after Steffan Evans was ruled out of facing Argentina with a knee injury suffered in the 22-20 win over South Africa .

We 've got enough cover on the wing to take care of it and both our 10s can play 15 as well . George North can go back to the wing too .

FANS of Scots band Fatherson have been eagerly anticipating their return for some time now . So they 'll be delighted to hear the Kilmarnock trio are ' coming out of hiding ' to showcase some of their new music at this year 's TRNSMT festival . The band , made up of Ross Leighton , Greg Walkinshaw and Marc Strain , will play a mix of their latest tracks and old favourites at the Glasgow Green gig . " We 're super excited to play what I think is going to be a prestigious festival for Scotland , " says Ross , as the band look forward to taking to the King Tut 's Stage . Greg adds : " It 's already got a pedigree of having good bands at it , and it 's going to be a lot of fun . It 's nice that it 's in the centre of Glasgow and easy for everyone to get to . " It 's a good way for us to come out of hiding -- we 've not played a show for a very long time so to come back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " There 's little chance of them being too rusty musically , having been camped out in the studio in recent months putting together the follow-up to 2014 's I Am An Island and 2016 release Open Book . " We 've not played a gig for a long time but we got a wee studio in Glasgow and wrote a new album , " Marc says . " We 've been in five or six days a week . We 've recorded most of the album live together so we 'll probably be better live than we were before -- I 'd hope so anyway ! " The band seem very confident in their new album , the release date of which is , according to Marc , ' soon ' . He adds : " The new music is ... really good ! We 're not a different band , it 's still the same guys but it is different . " Our friends and family get to hear it at every stage , and now that we 've got the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ going ' that sounds really nice ! ' " Either everyone 's being polite or we 've written a very good album . " Ross adds : " If you 've been a fan of us since the first album , the second was a step to the right of the first album whereas the first album was a bit more indie-centric , the second was a bit more indie rock . This one 's indie ... something else . " The band admits that it feels like it 's the first time in their career that they 've made ' a confident amount of decisions ' during the creative process . The culmination of all their work in the studio is an album that 's exactly what they 'd discussed and planned . Greg says it 's an " uncompromising album " , with Ross adding : " We just wrote a record we love and that 's the most honest way to describe it . " Fatherson are no strangers to festivals and big gigs , having played T In The Park @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ many headline shows of their own . As far as the band are concerned , there 's no better place to re-emerge from their spell away than TRNSMT . And the King Tut 's Stage in particular seems fitting , given the support the iconic Glasgow venue has given the band over the years . Marc says : " The line-up for the stage is great . It 's a mixture of bands that a lot of people wo n't have heard of to more established acts . " It 'll be great for everyone going to the festival and it 's nice for us especially as we were n't really going to play many festivals this summer . " It was n't something we planned on doing and it 's slightly ahead of schedule so it 's been really nice for us to get back to a home crowd play a couple of new songs and reconnect with everyone that 's been following us since we were kids . " We released a single on King Tut 's Recordings when we were about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ organisers of the festival have helped us out immensely since we were starting out on this journey of being a band . " It 's our first festival for this new album so it 's going to be a nice experience I think . " Ross adds : " King Tut 's has probably been the most consistent supporter of our career . It 's only right to come back and hit the ground running with that being the first public display of what this new record 's going to be like . " Other acts on the line-up for the July 1 date include Interpol , Blossoms and Miles Kane , plus headliners Arctic Monkeys , who play their only UK festival show at TRNSMT . And there are a few other acts the band are hoping to see themselves while they 're there . " Sigrid 's on just after us , she 's really cool and we 're on the same day as Arctic Monkeys so I 'm excited to see them , " Marc says . " The line-up 's great @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the other nights . |

Given everything that 's happened over the past few weeks , you might reasonably expect Raheem Sterling to give a bit of bite back to the media or -- just as understandably -- to refuse to give anything at all at England 's pre-World Cup media day . You might even expect him to be in surly mood , or just obstructive . He would be within his rights to be . It should really come as no surprise that the Manchester City attacker defies perception and expectation , though , as he makes it known that his main interest is England defying all perception and expectation . This is the thing with Sterling , who is courteous , likeable and smart ... but not without a very striking assertiveness . He has far bigger concerns than media stories about his tattoo or his private life -- something he allows to roll off him as " one of those things " -- because he has far bigger ambitions . Sterling believes only reaching a quarter-final , or even a semi-final , would be a failure . " No , it wo n't be good enough @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , " he asserts . " That 's the one thing I do n't like hearing , when someone says ' we 'll see what happens , see what happens here , see what happens there ' . Forget all of that . I 'm not coming here to spend four , five , six weeks of my life to say ' let 's see what happens and hopefully last 16 ' . " Who is the best England player at the 2018 World Cup ? Fifa 18 has rated several England players out of 100 and these are the results . Getty AFP/Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images REUTERS Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images Bongarts/Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images VI-Images via Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images Icon Sport via Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images AFP/Getty Images AFP/Getty Images VI-Images via Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images AFP/Getty Images This is something else about Sterling . By the time you spend even a short time in his company , you forget the rest of the nonsense around him , because he is so enthusiastic and engaging when talking about the game itself and what he can achieve it . It all fades to nothing against such fierce ambition , something that reflects his very mindset . Even when reflecting on some of the coverage , though , Sterling shows a greater awareness than many of those who have criticised him . He says he can understand why a tattoo of an AK47 would attract negative attention without an explanation . More notably , he says he does n't feel picked on . " No , I can see , most definitely , where they 're coming from , you can see a gun on someone 's leg , you are going to automatically think ' what the hell are you doing ' , and from my point , I 've had that since August/September , I know there 's been pictures of it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this moment in time does it then get reported about . " While some of the reporting of Sterling should provoke grander discussions about why a successful young black player is covered in the way he is , he himself has realised it wo n't serve that success to dwell on it . He 's far more focused than that . " Some things that started in pre-season and then , you know what , the season gets started , you kind of forget about it and then move on to football and it 's strictly football until the season finishes . It 's one of them ... I do n't really take it personally . " The boys have seen me round the place and , quite frankly , know that I have n't been really bothered by it . It 's one of those things . They get reported and that 's it . " Me and my mum and my agent sometimes talk . Little things like what happened the other day , people expect me to be really affected by it , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ harder stuff in my life to get down by that , so that 's the least of my worries . I 've got a massive opportunity here with a great bunch of players to represent England at a World Cup , that 's my biggest focus now . And that tattoo story that goes by , it 's going to be spoken for one day , two days . Football is the most important thing now , I 'll just keep training and we 'll see . " I do n't feel there 's an agenda , I would n't personally say that . It 's just one of those things . It 's World Cup time and news is news . It 's put up . I do n't think it 's against me , I 'm just focusing on my training sessions and doing well . Raheem Sterling has had the support of his manager ( AP ) " You hear it for two days , you know , as long as it 's nothing about my kids , my mum , really it 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ span and get on with football . That 's the most important thing for me . " Throughout all that , Sterling has developed to become probably England 's most important player other than Harry Kane , someone he is now developing a potentially crucial and lethal partnership with . This is also what strikes about the 23-year-old Premier League champion , who has so evolved under Pep Guardiola . He is very far from another perception of him , that image of a young player who turns up and plays off his instinct and talent . Sterling clearly thinks about the game a lot , as is revealed when he talks about his move back into the centre of the pitch , so he now wears the No 10 squad number for Russia . It has more meaning for him than most , though , as shown with another revelation he smiles about . " I know I should n't mention it but I 've got a tattoo of it on my arm ! " he says of the No 10 . " It 's something @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 10 for England . " It 's something from my childhood . My two favourite numbers are seven and 10 , from playing at QPR in the midfield area . I feel much more happy wearing that shirt and to be doing that at a World Cup with my country gives me that huge joy and feeling I can go and do well . " It 's something I played as a kid , I was more central , then went to Liverpool and started watching these videos of Cristiano Ronaldo and Ronaldinho , started doing step-overs , started developing my game that way , when I was more in and around the box , someone that takes two touches and shoots , not skills and had to change my game and that 's how I ended up on the wing . " I feel , because I 'm really fast , that 's one of the reasons I 've been put out there , and now I 'm closer to the goal and the area I want to be . " I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the striker for England . Everyone 's getting on the ball , everyone 's wanted to get on the ball , showing angles , and you know making one and two-touch passes . It 's been really fluent . " Sterling wants England to be more than fluent , though . He wants them to be forthright with the ball , to be more ... " arrogant " . That 's what Sterling feels England have to work on now , to fine-tune , in the last two weeks before the Tunisia game . He cites the example of Real Madrid . " I 'd say probably just controlling games and being a bit more arrogant with the ball . I 'm sorry to say it , but being more arrogant and more streetwise because we are coming up against some great teams and other countries have that streetwise mentality . They bring their play into it -- you do what you have to do to win a game . Simple as that . Be streetwise and clever . " You watch the Champions League final and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ game . They have that winning mentality in big games , not doing anything silly . Not attacking all the time . They see the game out and once we get that I think we 'll be a really good team .

The sentence 'Munir had tried to talk his brother out of buying the weapon' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It has a prevention interpretation ('Munir prevented his brother from buying the weapon by means of talking'). The verb 'talk' falls under the category of 'By means of enticing, flattering, or verbal persuasion'. The NP subject 'Munir' is an animate agent, and the NP object 'his brother' is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'buying the weapon'. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

On a serene , leafy street in north Pasadena , California , a 70-year-old man has lived a quiet life in a well-preserved craftsman house his family bought in 1963 . He keeps the lawn mowed . Trims his fruit trees . Chats with the neighbours . Sometimes he smokes Parliament cigarettes with his tea on the front porch , gazing at the San Gabriel Mountains that rise to the north into a sky that 's almost always blue . One spring day 50 years ago , one of his older brothers left this house and eventually drove his pink and white 1956 DeSoto to the Ambassador Hotel on Wilshire Boulevard in Los Angeles to shoot Senator Robert F Kennedy . At the time , Kennedy was campaigning for the Democratic presidential nomination . To his supporters , he represented a chance to heal the torn and reeling country .

" There was a program started by Eisenhower and the United Nations to help refugees , " says Munir . In 1956 they left with only what they could pack in suitcases .

" Bishara , the family patriarch , returned to Jordan after about a year , unable to adapt to life in the States . He reportedly beat his sons , though Munir says that was not his experience .

" Adel would play the oud , " a lute-type stringed instrument , " and Mother would take two spoons and hit the bottom of a bottle and approximate a drum sound , " Munir says . " Even if you did n't know the language or the rhythm of the Middle Eastern music , Adel could make you jump and holler and get off your seat .

" If anybody was trying to do me any harm , he confronted people . " Sirhan would say : " ' Listen , this is my little brother . I do n't want anybody hurting him . ' " Slowly , the Sirhans became Americanised . They had dogs named Tasha and Blue , a cat named Father John and a hamster named Herbie . They were regulars at Westminster Presbyterian Church , which was in walking distance from their home . Mary worked there in the nursery school . Sirhan went to nearby Eliot Junior High School , and then to John Muir High School -- the same school attended by Jackie Robinson , future baseball star -- where he joined the Reserve Officers ' Training Corp ( ROTC ) and learned to shoot a .22-calibre rifle . Munir quit school after sixth grade . " My eyes were weak , " he says . " I could n't see the blackboard ... I just could n't sit through it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the school system than in it . " The brothers got paper rounds , distributing the Pasadena Star-News . They also worked at a local health food store making deliveries . Sirhan liked to read , holed up for hours in that back bedroom with a window that looked out on a single lemon tree . It 's still there , gnarled and hanging with fruit . Munir collected records . Had thousands in the garage . He sold them at a yard sale years ago . He says he enjoyed all kinds of music , but who did he really , really like ? " I used to love Stan Freberg , " he tells me . In the 1950s and 1960s , Freberg -- a Pasadena native -- was a popular song parodist , the " Weird Al " Yankovic of his day . " I used to adore that guy . I think that 's what I would have been , some sort of comedy songwriter or something like that . " Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images But it did n't turn out that way . He got a job at FC Nash department store in Pasadena as a stock clerk . " The personnel manager , she said , ' How do you pronounce Munir ? ' " he recalls . " ' Do n't you have a nickname ? ' So I said , ' Well , yeah , call me Joe . ' I saw it on one of the carpenter 's shirts . She said , ' Oh well , we 'll have three Joes . ' " This mundane department store position created a connection -- with Munir as the unwitting middleman -- that would lead to his brother acquiring a gun . The gun . Around January 1968 , " Sirhan , because he used to belong to the ROTC , asked me to see if I could @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And I said , sure , I 'll ask . " A co-worker knew a friend looking to sell a pistol . That co-worker and another individual met the brothers in front of the house one evening and made a deal . " In any event , Sirhan ended up with the gun through me , " says Munir . " Which did n't make me feel too good as years progressed . " According to a Los Angeles police interview transcript from 1968 , Munir had tried to talk his brother out of buying the weapon . He told the police that he asked his brother to swear on their sister 's memory -- she had died in 1964 of leukemia at age 28 -- that he would " go to the rifle range just one time and then throw it away . " He did swear -- " but , " as Munir told police , " he did n't carry it through . " " I 'd think : If I had n't bought him that gun , or if I had n't connected him @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ different , " Munir says now . " You kind of start looking inward ... to see if you were part of the blame for this thing happening . " *** In the early hours of June 6 , Adel Sirhan , who worked nights playing oud at an Arabic nightclub in Hollywood called the Fez , came home and entered Munir 's room . From Munir 's LAPD interview : " I was asleep , and he woke me up and he said that Senator Kennedy had been shot . I woke up . I said , ' Oh , my God . ' I was hazy and sleepy . I just went back to sleep . " Later that morning , Munir left the house and took the bus to FC Nash . At about 8:30 , he went into the break room . " And the TV was on loud and the room was full , " he tells me . " And usually it 's not that full unless it 's somebody 's birthday , and I 'm thinking it 's too early @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ got some coffee from the vending machine . " So I took a couple of sips of my coffee , and I looked at the screen and the announcer was saying , ' If anybody knows the identity of this individual , get a hold of the police , ' and it looked like Sirhan . I said , ' Whoa . ' " " I waited until the picture came on again , " he continues , " and I said , ' That 's my brother . ' ... So I took my cup of coffee with me and spilled it all over the place , but ran down to the housewares department and asked my boss if I could use his car to run home . I told him , ' Listen , I think it 's my brother that shot Kennedy ! ' " Kennedy was a front runner for the Democratic presidential nomination in 1968 ( Getty ) His boss gave him his car keys . " I came home and told Adel , I said , ' Hey , they say @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Munir thought police had the wrong person . He had reason to think this was possible : A few years earlier , he had received a citation for hitchhiking . He says he did n't realise he was supposed to go to court , so the citation turned into a warrant . Later , according to Munir , Sirhan was stopped for driving barefoot . When the officer searched the record of Sirhan Bishara Sirhan , the warrant for Munir Bishara Sirhan came up . The officer arrested Sirhan . " And when this thing happened , I thought : They got the wrong guy . There 's a mistake here , you know , they 've got him mistaken for another guy , just as they had in the situation with the warrant ... That was my solace at the time . " Munir and Adel went to the Pasadena police station " to notify them , to see what the story was . And the officer , the desk clerk there , did n't seem too interested with our questioning , so we walked away , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a newsstand , and there it was : Sirhan 's picture on the front page ... So he grabbed the paper and went back to the desk sergeant and told him , ' Listen , this is my brother . ' I remember the guy 's look . He said , ' Oh . ' ... And then all hell broke loose . " *** What Sirhan did that night at the Ambassador Hotel is well documented . The short version is this : A month before the assassination , Sirhan had scrawled repeatedly in a notebook , " R.F.K. must die . " ( During his trial , he said he had no memory of writing this . ) On June 4 , the day of the California primary , he went to the hotel with a .22 Iver Johnson pistol fully loaded with eight bullets . He had four Tom Collins cocktails . A little after midnight in the hotel 's ballroom , Kennedy finished his rousing victory speech . He left the ballroom and made his way through a kitchen pantry accompanied by supporters and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them . ( Los Angeles police were not on the scene , nor were Secret Service details , which were n't assigned to candidates in 1968 . ) Sirhan stepped toward Kennedy and began shooting . Kennedy went down . He was hit twice in the back and once in the head . Sirhan was quickly overpowered and forced onto a steam table , still pulling the trigger . Including Kennedy , he shot six people with eight bullets . Five were wounded . Sirhan stated then and still maintains that he has no memory of the actual shooting . He recalls looking for coffee , talking with a young woman in a polka-dot dress , then nothing until he found himself being choked on the steam table . He was 115 pounds and 5-foot-2 , and his goal in life up to that point had been to be a jockey ; he 'd worked as a stable boy at Santa Anita racetrack . So why would he assassinate Robert Kennedy ? One theory held that Sirhan hated Kennedy for his support of Israel in the 1967 Six-Day @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ RFK and had no issues with Kennedy 's support for Jews or Israel -- though this contradicts comments made by other members of the family , including Sirhan himself , about his feelings towards the Jewish state . SirhanSirhan is apprehended shortly after shooting Kennedy ( Getty ) Or perhaps Sirhan -- as suggested by psychologist Martin M. Schorr , who interviewed Sirhan in 1969 and was quoted in Bishara Sirhan 's 1987 obituary in the Los Angeles Times -- hated his allegedly brutal father and took vengeance on Kennedy , whom he saw as a " symbolic replica " of his father . ( " He was a very strict father , " Munir says . " But a lot of people had a tight rein on their kids . " ) Or did Sirhan , as has been speculated , feel he was a loser , a failure , and he simply wanted to get famous ? Munir 's response : " That 's a bunch of crap . That 's crazy ... A lot of people looking into this case , after a while they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's the second gunman theory . The coroner 's report stated that the shot that killed the senator was fired from no more than three inches from the back of his head , on the right . Witness accounts place Sirhan in front of him and a few feet away at the closest . Moreover , an audiotape recorded in the pantry that surfaced in 2004 reveals , according to experts , up to 13 shots fired -- five more than Sirhan 's gun held . Which leads to the Manchurian angle : Sirhan , according to this theory , was acting under hypnosis , had been brainwashed and was merely a patsy -- albeit a potentially deadly one -- to draw attention from the actual assassin . " He had played around with the hypnotism . I asked him about it but never got any clear answers , " says Munir . " And he was into the Rosicrucians . " According to the group 's website , " The Rosicrucians are a community of mystics who study and practice the metaphysical laws governing the universe . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Rosae Crucis ; his ID , dated 1966 , was found in his wallet when he was arrested . During the trial , Sirhan was hypnotised six times by the defence and the prosecution in attempts to recover his memory of the shooting . To no avail . AP EPA AFP At the Sirhan family house , on the living room bookshelf along with Munir 's unread Kennedy collection , is a spine bearing the title " The Laws of Mental Domination . " It 's Sirhan 's book . It 's been there for all these years , along with a few of Sirhan 's other , now musty paperbacks like " Think and Grow Rich , " " How to Win Friends and Influence People " and " Word Power Made Easy . " Munir has lived for decades with a sense of helpless frustration and confusion about the killing . " I say this for people who loved @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ think that they have a closure , but if they look into this thing , they 'll find out that there 's a lot of unanswered questions . " After the shooting , Munir says , " all of us , the whole family got lost in this avalanche . I remember Mother saying -- God bless her , sweet as she was -- that maybe it 's her fault . And then Adel thinking , ' Well , I work nights so I should have been home . ' That went on for a long time . We could n't believe it . It was n't in Sirhan to do this . It was n't in him at all , far from him . It was far from any of us . None of us were politically inclined . If you would 've told me any of my brothers did anything like this , especially Sirhan , I 'd call you the biggest liar in the world . " *** After Sirhan 's arrest , communicating with him was not easy for his family . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the FBI , after we spoke with the L.A. police and Pasadena police , Mother and I went down to see him , " says Munir of their first face-to-face meeting after the shooting . " Mother asked him what happened . He said , ' I do n't remember . I do n't know . ' " As people across the country dealt with the shock of the assassination , the residents of Munir 's neighbourhood had their own unique experience . " When it first happened , they had to block off the whole street , " he says . " It was full of people ... The police were here for six months , 24 hours a day , guarding us , making sure nobody did us any harm , but I do n't think there was any need for that ... Everybody was trying to be as helpful as they could . Our neighbour , Olive , Sirhan used to play Parcheesi with her : she and the rest of the neighbours said , ' If there 's anything I can do , please let @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but Eileen Sloman , her husband , Peter , and son , Ernie , have lived in Olive 's old house for nearly 30 years . To Eileen , the man next door is just Manny . " I love Manny , " she says . " He 's a great neighbour , and when we 're gone he watches the house . When he 's gone we 'll watch his house ... He 's a very soft-spoken person , and he 's a very private person . But at the same time , I know that he would do anything for me and my family , and that 's just the type of person he is . " When she moved in , she adds , " I think he maybe knew some way that I knew who he was . But just over the years , he kind of let me in , and trusts me . " Munir outside his brother Sirhan 's room at the family home in Pasadena ( Philip Cheung/Washington Post ) Sloman has seen the odd tour bus cruise by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cans away from his on pickup day . Sometimes souvenir hunters dig in his garbage . Munir , according to Sloman , keeps a tidy yard : " He does ! And the other day he said , ' I want your opinion on something . ' So I go out , and he 's redone his garage . He 's going to make it into his man cave . " Munir lives alone , but his existence is n't solitary . Sloman says he knows more people in the neighbourhood than she does . He goes to all the block parties . Loves to chat . The man cave is part of all that , a way out of the darkness . " It 's painted circus colours , " she continues . " This bright orange and purple , kind of like a circus tent . He said he just wants to make it into a place where people can come and relax . " Relaxation has not been an easy thing for Munir . " I do n't understand really what he 's been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ know that his last brother has been serving the last 50 years of his life in prison has got to be just horrible . Tearing him apart . " *** Munir says he 's never had to deal with any serious negative backlash due to his last name . Nothing physical , not even verbal . In the early days , " the whole family protected me , " he says , like " where the baby elephant is between the mass of elephants . " As he got older , even out there in the working world , it was n't an issue . He never had a profession -- " I 'm not that kind of guy " -- but worked as a service station manager on and off . " Oh yeah , I had jobs that my name would be printed on my shirt , " he says . " But no , I 've never had anybody that held any animosity toward us at all . And in fact , I did n't like it , but a lot of people would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would go out of their way to help because of the notoriety , and then I tell them , ' Please , you know , I have my own individuality . ' " But his own individuality -- his own time -- has come down to this : " It 's all dedicated to Sirhan . I wait for him to call when he can . When he ca n't , I 'm here for the attorneys in case they need anything . " And between those phone calls , between helping the attorneys ? Munir shrugs . " Go to the store , go to the laundry , go to the post office . Read and read and do some more reading . " About what ? " I do a lot of house repairs . I butcher up the place , so I have a lot of manuals about repairing houses . And I read briefs about Sirhan ... There 's about 15 boxes of those .

A photo of Sirhan ( left ) and Munir on a wall at the family home ( Philip Cheung/Washington Post ) Seeing him has been up to the vagaries of the prison system , Munir says . When he and his family visited over the years , " it was hard to have time to discuss much of anything . The time we spent with him was discussing legal matters , and we 'd be more concerned about his health and if he 's getting treated right .

The sentence 'Munir had tried to talk his brother out of buying the weapon' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'talk' is used in the V1 slot, which falls under the category of means of verbal persuasion. The NP subject 'Munir' is an animate agent, and the NP object 'his brother' is a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'buying the weapon'. The sentence also induces a prevention interpretation, as Munir is attempting to prevent his brother from buying the weapon. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

" If anybody was trying to do me any harm , he confronted people . " Sirhan would say : " ' Listen , this is my little brother . I do n't want anybody hurting him . ' " Slowly , the Sirhans became Americanised . They had dogs named Tasha and Blue , a cat named Father John and a hamster named Herbie . They were regulars at Westminster Presbyterian Church , which was in walking distance from their home . Mary worked there in the nursery school . Sirhan went to nearby Eliot Junior High School , and then to John Muir High School -- the same school attended by Jackie Robinson , future baseball star -- where he joined the Reserve Officers ' Training Corp ( ROTC ) and learned to shoot a .22-calibre rifle . Munir quit school after sixth grade . " My eyes were weak , " he says . " I could n't see the blackboard ... I just could n't sit through it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the school system than in it . " The brothers got paper rounds , distributing the Pasadena Star-News . They also worked at a local health food store making deliveries . Sirhan liked to read , holed up for hours in that back bedroom with a window that looked out on a single lemon tree . It 's still there , gnarled and hanging with fruit . Munir collected records . Had thousands in the garage . He sold them at a yard sale years ago . He says he enjoyed all kinds of music , but who did he really , really like ? " I used to love Stan Freberg , " he tells me . In the 1950s and 1960s , Freberg -- a Pasadena native -- was a popular song parodist , the " Weird Al " Yankovic of his day . " I used to adore that guy . I think that 's what I would have been , some sort of comedy songwriter or something like that . " Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images Getty Images But it did n't turn out that way . He got a job at FC Nash department store in Pasadena as a stock clerk . " The personnel manager , she said , ' How do you pronounce Munir ? ' " he recalls . " ' Do n't you have a nickname ? ' So I said , ' Well , yeah , call me Joe . ' I saw it on one of the carpenter 's shirts . She said , ' Oh well , we 'll have three Joes . ' " This mundane department store position created a connection -- with Munir as the unwitting middleman -- that would lead to his brother acquiring a gun . The gun . Around January 1968 , " Sirhan , because he used to belong to the ROTC , asked me to see if I could @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And I said , sure , I 'll ask . " A co-worker knew a friend looking to sell a pistol . That co-worker and another individual met the brothers in front of the house one evening and made a deal . " In any event , Sirhan ended up with the gun through me , " says Munir . " Which did n't make me feel too good as years progressed . " According to a Los Angeles police interview transcript from 1968 , Munir had tried to talk his brother out of buying the weapon . He told the police that he asked his brother to swear on their sister 's memory -- she had died in 1964 of leukemia at age 28 -- that he would " go to the rifle range just one time and then throw it away . " He did swear -- " but , " as Munir told police , " he did n't carry it through . " " I 'd think : If I had n't bought him that gun , or if I had n't connected him @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ different , " Munir says now . " You kind of start looking inward ... to see if you were part of the blame for this thing happening . " *** In the early hours of June 6 , Adel Sirhan , who worked nights playing oud at an Arabic nightclub in Hollywood called the Fez , came home and entered Munir 's room . From Munir 's LAPD interview : " I was asleep , and he woke me up and he said that Senator Kennedy had been shot . I woke up . I said , ' Oh , my God . ' I was hazy and sleepy . I just went back to sleep . " Later that morning , Munir left the house and took the bus to FC Nash . At about 8:30 , he went into the break room . " And the TV was on loud and the room was full , " he tells me . " And usually it 's not that full unless it 's somebody 's birthday , and I 'm thinking it 's too early @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ got some coffee from the vending machine . " So I took a couple of sips of my coffee , and I looked at the screen and the announcer was saying , ' If anybody knows the identity of this individual , get a hold of the police , ' and it looked like Sirhan . I said , ' Whoa . ' " " I waited until the picture came on again , " he continues , " and I said , ' That 's my brother . ' ... So I took my cup of coffee with me and spilled it all over the place , but ran down to the housewares department and asked my boss if I could use his car to run home . I told him , ' Listen , I think it 's my brother that shot Kennedy ! ' " Kennedy was a front runner for the Democratic presidential nomination in 1968 ( Getty ) His boss gave him his car keys . " I came home and told Adel , I said , ' Hey , they say @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Munir thought police had the wrong person . He had reason to think this was possible : A few years earlier , he had received a citation for hitchhiking . He says he did n't realise he was supposed to go to court , so the citation turned into a warrant . Later , according to Munir , Sirhan was stopped for driving barefoot . When the officer searched the record of Sirhan Bishara Sirhan , the warrant for Munir Bishara Sirhan came up . The officer arrested Sirhan . " And when this thing happened , I thought : They got the wrong guy . There 's a mistake here , you know , they 've got him mistaken for another guy , just as they had in the situation with the warrant ... That was my solace at the time . " Munir and Adel went to the Pasadena police station " to notify them , to see what the story was . And the officer , the desk clerk there , did n't seem too interested with our questioning , so we walked away , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a newsstand , and there it was : Sirhan 's picture on the front page ... So he grabbed the paper and went back to the desk sergeant and told him , ' Listen , this is my brother . ' I remember the guy 's look . He said , ' Oh . ' ... And then all hell broke loose . " *** What Sirhan did that night at the Ambassador Hotel is well documented . The short version is this : A month before the assassination , Sirhan had scrawled repeatedly in a notebook , " R.F.K. must die . " ( During his trial , he said he had no memory of writing this . ) On June 4 , the day of the California primary , he went to the hotel with a .22 Iver Johnson pistol fully loaded with eight bullets . He had four Tom Collins cocktails . A little after midnight in the hotel 's ballroom , Kennedy finished his rousing victory speech . He left the ballroom and made his way through a kitchen pantry accompanied by supporters and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them . ( Los Angeles police were not on the scene , nor were Secret Service details , which were n't assigned to candidates in 1968 . ) Sirhan stepped toward Kennedy and began shooting . Kennedy went down . He was hit twice in the back and once in the head . Sirhan was quickly overpowered and forced onto a steam table , still pulling the trigger . Including Kennedy , he shot six people with eight bullets . Five were wounded . Sirhan stated then and still maintains that he has no memory of the actual shooting . He recalls looking for coffee , talking with a young woman in a polka-dot dress , then nothing until he found himself being choked on the steam table . He was 115 pounds and 5-foot-2 , and his goal in life up to that point had been to be a jockey ; he 'd worked as a stable boy at Santa Anita racetrack . So why would he assassinate Robert Kennedy ? One theory held that Sirhan hated Kennedy for his support of Israel in the 1967 Six-Day @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ RFK and had no issues with Kennedy 's support for Jews or Israel -- though this contradicts comments made by other members of the family , including Sirhan himself , about his feelings towards the Jewish state . SirhanSirhan is apprehended shortly after shooting Kennedy ( Getty ) Or perhaps Sirhan -- as suggested by psychologist Martin M. Schorr , who interviewed Sirhan in 1969 and was quoted in Bishara Sirhan 's 1987 obituary in the Los Angeles Times -- hated his allegedly brutal father and took vengeance on Kennedy , whom he saw as a " symbolic replica " of his father . ( " He was a very strict father , " Munir says . " But a lot of people had a tight rein on their kids . " ) Or did Sirhan , as has been speculated , feel he was a loser , a failure , and he simply wanted to get famous ? Munir 's response : " That 's a bunch of crap . That 's crazy ... A lot of people looking into this case , after a while they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's the second gunman theory . The coroner 's report stated that the shot that killed the senator was fired from no more than three inches from the back of his head , on the right . Witness accounts place Sirhan in front of him and a few feet away at the closest . Moreover , an audiotape recorded in the pantry that surfaced in 2004 reveals , according to experts , up to 13 shots fired -- five more than Sirhan 's gun held . Which leads to the Manchurian angle : Sirhan , according to this theory , was acting under hypnosis , had been brainwashed and was merely a patsy -- albeit a potentially deadly one -- to draw attention from the actual assassin . " He had played around with the hypnotism . I asked him about it but never got any clear answers , " says Munir . " And he was into the Rosicrucians . " According to the group 's website , " The Rosicrucians are a community of mystics who study and practice the metaphysical laws governing the universe . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Rosae Crucis ; his ID , dated 1966 , was found in his wallet when he was arrested . During the trial , Sirhan was hypnotised six times by the defence and the prosecution in attempts to recover his memory of the shooting . To no avail . AP EPA AFP At the Sirhan family house , on the living room bookshelf along with Munir 's unread Kennedy collection , is a spine bearing the title " The Laws of Mental Domination . " It 's Sirhan 's book . It 's been there for all these years , along with a few of Sirhan 's other , now musty paperbacks like " Think and Grow Rich , " " How to Win Friends and Influence People " and " Word Power Made Easy . " Munir has lived for decades with a sense of helpless frustration and confusion about the killing . " I say this for people who loved @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ think that they have a closure , but if they look into this thing , they 'll find out that there 's a lot of unanswered questions . " After the shooting , Munir says , " all of us , the whole family got lost in this avalanche . I remember Mother saying -- God bless her , sweet as she was -- that maybe it 's her fault . And then Adel thinking , ' Well , I work nights so I should have been home . ' That went on for a long time . We could n't believe it . It was n't in Sirhan to do this . It was n't in him at all , far from him . It was far from any of us . None of us were politically inclined . If you would 've told me any of my brothers did anything like this , especially Sirhan , I 'd call you the biggest liar in the world . " *** After Sirhan 's arrest , communicating with him was not easy for his family . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the FBI , after we spoke with the L.A. police and Pasadena police , Mother and I went down to see him , " says Munir of their first face-to-face meeting after the shooting . " Mother asked him what happened . He said , ' I do n't remember . I do n't know . ' " As people across the country dealt with the shock of the assassination , the residents of Munir 's neighbourhood had their own unique experience . " When it first happened , they had to block off the whole street , " he says . " It was full of people ... The police were here for six months , 24 hours a day , guarding us , making sure nobody did us any harm , but I do n't think there was any need for that ... Everybody was trying to be as helpful as they could . Our neighbour , Olive , Sirhan used to play Parcheesi with her : she and the rest of the neighbours said , ' If there 's anything I can do , please let @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but Eileen Sloman , her husband , Peter , and son , Ernie , have lived in Olive 's old house for nearly 30 years . To Eileen , the man next door is just Manny . " I love Manny , " she says . " He 's a great neighbour , and when we 're gone he watches the house . When he 's gone we 'll watch his house ... He 's a very soft-spoken person , and he 's a very private person . But at the same time , I know that he would do anything for me and my family , and that 's just the type of person he is . " When she moved in , she adds , " I think he maybe knew some way that I knew who he was . But just over the years , he kind of let me in , and trusts me . " Munir outside his brother Sirhan 's room at the family home in Pasadena ( Philip Cheung/Washington Post ) Sloman has seen the odd tour bus cruise by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cans away from his on pickup day . Sometimes souvenir hunters dig in his garbage . Munir , according to Sloman , keeps a tidy yard : " He does ! And the other day he said , ' I want your opinion on something . ' So I go out , and he 's redone his garage . He 's going to make it into his man cave . " Munir lives alone , but his existence is n't solitary . Sloman says he knows more people in the neighbourhood than she does . He goes to all the block parties . Loves to chat . The man cave is part of all that , a way out of the darkness . " It 's painted circus colours , " she continues . " This bright orange and purple , kind of like a circus tent . He said he just wants to make it into a place where people can come and relax . " Relaxation has not been an easy thing for Munir . " I do n't understand really what he 's been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ know that his last brother has been serving the last 50 years of his life in prison has got to be just horrible . Tearing him apart . " *** Munir says he 's never had to deal with any serious negative backlash due to his last name . Nothing physical , not even verbal . In the early days , " the whole family protected me , " he says , like " where the baby elephant is between the mass of elephants . " As he got older , even out there in the working world , it was n't an issue . He never had a profession -- " I 'm not that kind of guy " -- but worked as a service station manager on and off . " Oh yeah , I had jobs that my name would be printed on my shirt , " he says . " But no , I 've never had anybody that held any animosity toward us at all . And in fact , I did n't like it , but a lot of people would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would go out of their way to help because of the notoriety , and then I tell them , ' Please , you know , I have my own individuality . ' " But his own individuality -- his own time -- has come down to this : " It 's all dedicated to Sirhan . I wait for him to call when he can . When he ca n't , I 'm here for the attorneys in case they need anything . " And between those phone calls , between helping the attorneys ? Munir shrugs . " Go to the store , go to the laundry , go to the post office . Read and read and do some more reading . " About what ? " I do a lot of house repairs . I butcher up the place , so I have a lot of manuals about repairing houses . And I read briefs about Sirhan ... There 's about 15 boxes of those . My eyes are n't that great , and I like to keep them reserved for the important @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , California state prisoner B21014 , Sirhan Bishara Sirhan , has been locked up at the Richard J.

It 's 160 miles and a world away from Pasadena . A photo of Sirhan ( left ) and Munir on a wall at the family home ( Philip Cheung/Washington Post ) Seeing him has been up to the vagaries of the prison system , Munir says . When he and his family visited over the years , " it was hard to have time to discuss much of anything . The time we spent with him was discussing legal matters , and we 'd be more concerned about his health and if he 's getting treated right .

A RIOT of gothic spires , crowned with an enormous dome , Hungary 's Parliament building is among Europe 's most beautiful structures . On a warm day it appears to hover , dreamlike , above the River Danube in the heart of Budapest . By night it becomes a fairytale castle , its golden illuminated stonework -- a mass of arches and pinnacles -- reflected in the rippling water . It took an army of 100,000 people to build what the Hungarians refer to as their Orsz ? gh ? z -- or House of the Nation . They used more than 40 million bricks , half a million precious stones and 40kg of gold . Tragically , its architect went blind before it was finished at the dawn of the 20th century -- unable to gaze upon his fantasy of stone and glass . Gazing upon the structure as we floated down the river on a dinner cruise , drinking strong local wine and feasting on rich goulash laced with paprika , it was impossible not to be moved by the majesty of this most striking of capital cities . Actually , it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ facing it across the Danube , romantic old Buda , crowned by its castle and another fairytale structure which looks like it has been created out of icing , the 14th century Matthias Church . As we sailed past this treasure house of architecture , spanning at least 700 years , a familiar tune came over the boat 's speakers -- the Blue Danube . The river which so charmed Johann Strauss remains as lovely now as when he penned his famous waltz in the mid-19th century . Of course , Hungary , and indeed all of Central Europe , has had a tumultuous time since those days when the Habsburg emperors held sway , with war , revolution , totalitarianism and occupation wreaking havoc . But its great imperial cities remain as treasure houses of history -- gorgeous , bustling and heart-meltingly romantic . And there is only really one way to travel between them -- by rail . Great Rail Journeys , who organise escorted trips by train around some of the loveliest corners of the planet , run a 13 day-trip between central @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Prague and Berlin -- the old Prussian capital of course , being the capital of the German Empire and home to Kaiser . Unlike air travel , the ' getting there ' is as enjoyable as the arrival . To glide across the plains of Hungary , through the forests of Slovakia , on to rolling Moravia and Bohemia and north into the heart of Saxony and Brandenburg , is to take a living lesson in European history and geography . The trains are modern but retain flourishes of a more civilized age which will delight passengers more used to packed British commuter services . Meals are served in restaurant cars with crisp linen tablecloths , and is cheap and delicious . There is a steady supply of excellent beer ( of course ) and wines from the vineyards of Hungary and Franconia . From the windows , we spied castles and churches atop craggy hills , passed through thick dark forests and villages seemingly lost in time . In keeping with the romance of travel , the great railway stations of central Europe , with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cathedrals to the golden age of travel and the romance of rail . While airports , built with pure efficiency in mind , are places to rush through , stations like Budapest 's Keleti terminus -- crowned with statues of two familiar figures , our own James Watt and George Stephenson -- are buildings to savour ; monumental gateways and heavy with the promise of delights to come . And the delights were many -- not least our hotel . Located in Budapest 's Jewish Quarter , the Continental is a gem . A former spa -- the city is full of fine bathing spots dating back to the Ottomans -- it had been left to ruin until being restored , opening to guests with a six-story building incorporating its original art nouveau features in 2010 . It is a triumph of restoration ; a true labour of love . It is also within a quick stroll of some of the city 's best sights , not least Europe 's tallest synagogue , a soaring wrought-iron market hall , and a sprinkling of stylish cafes and hip @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ruin bars -- built into atmospheric abandoned buildings and courtyards . A more sobering period of Hungarian history is laid bare in the House of Terror , a former prison and interrogation centre during fascist then communist rule . There 's a lot to take in , but as a crash course in 20th century history , it is essential . The underground dungeons , complete with execution cell , still cast a chill and it was a relief to emerge into the sunlight , head across the river and take the narrow gauge Children 's Railway through the woods . The name is apt , it being staffed almost entirely by children -- pupils from city schools who volunteer to run this working railway A throwback to Hungary 's Cold War era , it is one socialist project which remains extremely popular , and is thoroughly charming . It was hard to leave Budapest , but Prague was equally beautiful and even more historic . We explored the city on foot , enjoying the sublime views of its riot of spires and turrets @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on Charles Bridge gazing up at the castle , soaked up the atmosphere of the Old Town Square with its wedding cake architecture , and wandered through medieval cloisters and art nouveau shopping arcades , roofed with stain glass . History seeps from the stones from which it is built . The same can be said for Berlin , but in a very different sense . Few European cities have lived through as much upheaval as Berlin -- nor carry the scars of their past so openly . Arriving at the gleaming , ultra-modern Hauptbahnhof -- barely two years old -- we explored those layers of history : its imperial past reflected in its old churches and the iconic Brandenburg Gate ; the dark days of national socialism represented by the ruins of the SS and Gestapo headquarters and Hermann G ? ring 's hulking Aviation Ministry building , and the Cold War immortalised in its most enduring image -- the remains of the Berlin Wall . While history is everywhere , Berlin is a fresh , modern capital , and very green . It 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ We stayed at the luxurious Maritim Hotel in the diplomatic quarter , from which it 's an easy walk to modern Potsdammer Platz and the glitzy shopping district of Kurf ? rstendamm . In a journey which would have been unimaginable 30 years ago , I wandered past Checkpoint Charlie ( reconstructed for tourists ) , along what is left of the wall , zig-zagging in and out of the old East and West . Back on the train and heading west to Cologne , with its achingly beautiful black , twin-spired cathedral , I tried to make sense of the tides of history which have shaped the heartland of Europe . In the end I gave up , had another beer and watched the sun-lit countryside fly by . Now that 's travel .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'scare the life out of batting line-ups' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate, and it does not give rise to either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to be an idiomatic expression meaning to frighten someone greatly, which is not related to the construction under discussion.

Former international new ball partner Abbott believes Steyn will scare the life out of batting line-ups around the circuit . " I would think he will go through a couple of sides , " said Abbott . " Just the name alone will put doubts into some batsmen 's heads .

" Abbott and Steyn last bowled together in December 2015 during the Boxing Day Test match against England . And the 30-year-old is looking forward to reuniting with Steyn and revealed exactly why the duo are going to be a tricky couple to face . Abbott said : " I have been lucky to bowl a lot of overs with him . I remember taking the new ball with him at the 2015 World Cup .

In the same breath , I think I can keep them quiet from the other end and allow him to really express himself . " Away from the cricket field , Steyn and Abbott enjoy a close-knit friendship thanks to their shared passions -- especially surfing . " Our relationship is pretty good , " added Abbott .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks a clear causer and causee relationship, and the phrase 'opt out of making retirement contributions' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the construction.

Six out of nine of the UK 's largest auto-enrolment pension providers have no policy to exclude investments in firms that profit from chemical and biological weapons , new research has found . One of the companies , Aegon , has no policy to prevent investment in any controversial weapons , including anti-personnel mines or cluster munitions , according to research by the responsible investment watchdog , ShareAction . The UK is one of 167 signatories up to the Ottowa Treaty aimed at ending the use of AP mines . In their default funds , Aviva , The People 's Pension , Royal London , Scottish Widows , Aegon , and Standard Life do not screen out firms that produce toxic components of harmful weapons . The nine providers surveyed manage the pension savings of 9 million people under auto-enrolment , a system brought in to ensure people put aside more for their retirement . The findings reveal a startling disconnect between the attitudes of the UK population and the policies of the fund managers investing on their behalf . Nine in 10 people in the UK say they view tax avoidance as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ NEST and Royal London - have policies on how they encourage responsible tax conduct at companies they invest in , the report found . NEST came out on top of the rankings , which looked at a number of policies on responsible investment as well as engagement with savers . The provider was significantly ahead of its nearest competitor and demonstrated " particularly commendable " performance in its approach to climate-change related financial risks . It was the only provider to have a measurable and time-bound target to reduce the portfolio 's exposure to climate risks , ShareAction said . Frank Field , chair of the Commons Work and Pensions Committee , wrote in the foreword to the report that it was important to assess how responsible investment has been incorporated into auto-enrolment . " This new generation of savers is especially well placed to take the long view and realise the benefits of a retirement plan that is truly sustainable for them personally , but also for their fellow citizens and the planet , " he said . Providers need to make big improvements @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them as they opt out of making retirement contributions altogether , the report suggests . Workers will see larger amounts come out of their paychecks for pensions from March next year as contributions rise from 5 per cent to 8 per cent . This makes it more important to step up engagement efforts or more savers could opt out , the report said . It follows research published by ShareAction in March that found the pensions industry could be jeopardising millennials ' willingness to save properly for retirement . It found that a lack of digital innovation and uninspiring saver engagement efforts risked switching younger people off . Paul Britton , research officer at ShareAction and report 's author , said : " The strong incorporation of responsible investment principles is good for our savings and good for society . The lacklustre performance across member communications and engagement by all providers is no real surprise . Of course , auto-enrolment pension providers can not be solely blamed for Britain 's retirement cliff-edge , but they do need to act on their key position to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Hoping members do n't opt-out as the minimum contributes rates rise is not enough - people need compelling reasons to save .

France boss Didier Deschamps insists he has " no worries " about the form of Paul Pogba ahead of the World Cup . A lacklustre performance from midfielder Pogba in France 's warm-up friendly against Russia 2018 absentees Italy in Nice last week caused some concern . Samuel Umtiti , Antoine Griezmann and Ousmane Dembele scored for Les Blues at the Allianz Riviera where Pogba was far from his best . But Deschamps jumped to his defence on Friday , ahead of France 's friendly in Lyon on Saturday against the United States , another team who have been World Cup regulars but have missed out of qualifying this time . He said of Pogba 's showing against Italy : " He knows it , I 've spoken to him , that it was n't his best match , that 's for sure . " But Deschamps added : " I know that we speak about Paul a lot . Effectively he 's a midfielder , he 's not a number 10 , he 's not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ score . " He 's a complete midfielder , who can do everything . But he ca n't do everything , there 's a nuance . " Deschamps ' protection of the Manchester United midfielder , stressing he is a player with all the ability in the world but underlining he can not be expected to run every match , may resonate with the former Juventus man . Pogba has said he wants a starring role at the World Cup and Deschamps said " there are no worries " where he is concerned , although France will want the 25-year-old purring for their opening match at the tournament , which comes against Australia on June 16 in Kazan . France were visited at their Clairefontaine training camp by president Emmanuel Macron this week , before making the journey to Lyon to step up their preparations . French sports daily L'Equipe reported on its website that Pogba is expected to start the game against the United States , in a midfield trio behind the striking triumvirate of Antoine Griezmann , Kylian Mbappe and Olivier Giroud . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ matches against France and will do well to avoid another defeat .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('Martin has already ruled them out of carrying the prequel series'). It involves a prevention interpretation where the subject (Martin) prevents the object (them) from carrying the prequel series. The verb 'ruled' can be classified under means of exerting force or pressure, fitting one of the categories of verbs that appear in the V1 slot. The NP object 'them' functions as a causee, and the sentence allows for a prevention interpretation, which are key properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

HBO has announced that they 're going to make a pilot of one of the long-trailed Game of Thrones prequel sagas . While that 's not a commitment to make a whole series , it 's a pretty solid indicator that HBO like the direction that the spin-off 's heading in and want to see what it 'll look like on the screen . Advertisement - Continue Reading Below So what else do we know about it ? Goldman wrote both Kingsman films , Kick-Ass , and Stardust , and worked on the plot for the pilot with George RR Martin . Goldman will serve as the showrunner too . Contrary to what HBO said last year , GoT producers Dan Weiss and David Benioff wo n't be involved as executive producers . Writers currently developing other potential spin-offs are Max Borenstein ( Kong : Skull Island ) , Carly Wray ( Mad Men , Westworld ) , Brian Helgeland ( LA Confidential ) and Bryan Cogman ( Game of Thrones ) . We 've already been warned off expecting established characters to pop up , and HBO 's statement about the pilot and mooted series says that the story will follow " the world 's descent from the golden Age of Heroes into its darkest hour " , meaning that we 'll be delving into the deep mythos of Westeros rather than hanging around in the same time window as GoT . This is the time when House Stark fought House Bolton and tried to unite the North under one king . We 'll probably meet House Stark founder Bran the Builder and Lann the Clever , who set up the House of Lannister . That 's Ser Duncan the Tall and Aegon the Unlikely , to give them their full titles . They 're the central characters of Martin 's Tales of Dunk and Egg prequel novellas set about 90 years before the ' Song Of Ice And Fire ' saga begins , and Martin has already ruled them out of carrying the prequel series . Advertisement - Continue Reading Below HELEN SLOAN / HBO " $50 million per season would never fly for what we are trying to do . We are going big , " HBO 's Senior VP Drama Francesca Orsi told the INTV conference in March , referring to the kind of cash the early seasons of GoT were put together for . Obviously that 's not exactly a shoestring budget , but when the final season of GoT is costing upwards of $15 million an episode that 's a serious pile of Gold Dragons . Orsi said we can expect " three , four , five spin-offs " set in the GoT universe , and that given the wild success of GoT it 'd be " corporate malfeasance " not to make as much out of the universe as possible . However , the pilots and scripts will be going into a kind of trial-by-combat to see which one gets turned into a full series . As HBO 's President of Programming Casey Bloys put it , " The bar set by Game of Thrones is so high that my hope is to get one show that lives up to it . " |

" Of course we can not kid ourselves . We know we are a limited team and have to do exactly what the coach tells us to do . We need to show a clear identity on the pitch . " |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'make a mockery out of sneering critics', where 'sneering' modifies 'critics' as an adjective, not as a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'a number of smaller firms' is the NP subject, 'have tried' is V1, 'to get' is part of the VP2[-ing] predicate, and 'out of making deficit-reduction payments' is the complement. It also induces a prevention interpretation, as the firms are attempting to avoid making payments. The NP object is implied (the firms themselves), which aligns with the atypical types of NP object where the subject and object can be coreferential.

FIRMS paying into the Scottish Solicitors ' Staff Pension Fund are likely to see their share of the scheme 's ? 18 million deficit decrease thanks to an opinion delivered by the head of the judiciary .

It is the latest court decision to strengthen the hand of the scheme to recover contributions from firms whose former employees it pays pensions to . Set up in 1947 , the pension fund provides retirement income to the employees of 40 firms , with around 190 of its 300 members already drawing their pensions while the remainder have yet to retire .

Brodies , meanwhile , was responsible for ? 991,000 of the overall deficit in the year to April 2017 and expects to pay at least ? 217,000 a year on an ongoing basis .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. The phrase 'buys free kicks out of nothing left right and centre' does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate and does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'out of nothing' is an idiomatic expression indicating that the free kicks are obtained seemingly without cause or effort, which does not align with the transitive out of -ing construction.

The consensus among the Coventry City fanbase as to the return of Jonson Clarke-Harris appears to be a very positive one . Leicester-born forward Clarke-Harris has returned to the Sky Blues on a permanent basis after being released by Rotherham United , confirming a deal on Wednesday . The 23-year-old , who scored four times in 22 appearances on loan in the second half of last season at City , heads back to the Ricoh Arena where he began his career almost eight years ago . " If you know me you 'll be sure that I 'm delighted to be back at @CoventryCity for the next 2 years the place where it all started very happy , " he tweeted as his comeback was announced . And the Sky Blues supporters appear to be all of the same opinion - that ' JCH ' can hit the ground running with Marc McNulty and co next term . Here is a flavour of the reaction to the new signing below . Luke : We have signed JCH on a permanent deal . I 'm happy with that @ClarkeHarris @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ #CoventryCity Martin Warren : Delighted to see JCH back on a permanent deal , think he 'll come good in L1 Schoe : Ca n't wait for you to bang in a 90th minute winner at Sunderland away and the gaf just gets smashed up Rob Jones : Delighted @ClarkeHarris is up for continuing the journey . Welcome home formally JCH Tom Wall : Buzzing to have you back big man ! With a full pre season behind ya , you and sparky will set league one on fire ! Joshua Scrivens : This club needs players to stick around and it looks to finally be happening , great talent and charisma on and off the pitch Ricky : Absolutely delighted with this news . Congratulations and good luck in the coming season pal David Michael Collins : Happy we 've signed @ClarkeHarris I do n't understand some fans not liking him . Can tell he 's played at a higher level , he 's a clever player as well , buys free kicks out of nothing left right and centre Jimmy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ upgrading Nazon for JCH . It 's great that he has signed for the next two promotion seasons . Matty Roper : Happy with that ! Offers something different in that area and got plenty to prove . Another solid piece of business Coventry City have completed the signing of striker Jonson Clarke-Harris following a successful loan spell , writes Andy Turner . The former academy graduate re-joined the Sky Blues on a temporary basis from Rotherham United with the view to a permanent move on deadline day back in January . After making 21 appearances and netting on four occasions , City boss Mark Robins opted to secure the services of the 23-year-old on a two-year-deal following his release from the Millers . Here , sports journalism student and Sky Blues fans George Baker takes a closer at look at the player 's time with the club so far . Clarke-Harris was brought up through the club 's academy after being spotted playing park football in his home-town of Leicester . After catching the eye @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ record when he made his first team debut in a League Cup clash with Morecambe in 2010 aged just 16 years and 20 days old , the youngest player ever to play for the club . Despite his early promise the young starlet was released by then manager Andy Thorn and went on to make appearances for the likes of Bury , Oldham Athletic and Doncaster Rovers , even scoring against Sky Blues during his time with Donny . Fast forward to January 2018 and with Duckens Nazon opting for a move to League One , City boss Mark Robins was in need of another striker . Having missed out on his two initial targets of Oldham 's Craig Davies and Northampton Town 's Marc Richards . who instead joined Swindon Town , Robins opted for to bring Clarke-Harris home in a move that proved worthwhile . After failing to make his mark during his previous spell at the club , the bullish forward returned with a point to prove , and when speaking to the club 's website back in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ feel like I am home . It is a really good feeling , " he said . " I have had to take the long route round to becoming a Coventry City player , but this is where I should have been in the first place and I am looking forward to cracking on and hopefully getting promotion . " It was very frustrating to be released as a teenager , but things happen for a reason . I can show everybody now why it was the wrong decision to let me go . " Despite playing 19 times for Rotherham in the first of the 17/18 campaign , most of these outings had been cameo appearances as he struggled to force his way into manager Paul Warne 's plans . It meant that when he arrived back at the Ricoh Arena he needed time to get match fit and regain his sharpness in front of goal . Understandably , it took a few weeks for the striker to get up to speed at a time when the team @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ consecutive defeats at the hands of Forest Green , Accrington Stanley and Colchester United . Nonetheless , it was apparent from his early displays that Clarke-Harris offered a real physical presence at the top of the field and something a little different to fellow target man , Maxime Biamou . While not prolific during his loan spell , when he did find the net it came at a time that was crucial , with all four goals coming within a six-game period between February and March . His first ever goal for the Sky Blues came as a consolation strike in a 3-1 FA Cup 5th Round defeat at Premier League side Brighton . Although the goal ultimately meant nothing , the strike itself was spectacular with the ball sitting up perfectly for him to thump on the volley past Dutch international Tim Krul . A week later and he scored what was arguably a huge goal in City 's push for promotion . A goal down and reduced to ten men after 16 minutes away at Mansfield , it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ disappearing . That was until Clarke-Harris stepped up in the 71st minute to lash home a vital penalty to secure a draw in what many fans would agree was a huge turning point in the season . He then notched two more vitally important goals in league wins over strugglers Barnet and Crewe Alexandra . Although he then failed to score again for the remainder of the campaign , if he can replicate that flurry in League One on a more regular basis City will have a real player on their hands . Following JCH 's arrival , it took the burden away from Maxime Biamou who was the club 's only recognised target man and allowed the Frenchman a breather . While the 27-year-old put in some impressive displays , goal-scoring had been his problem . But with a like-for-like replacement waiting in the wings it appeared to push Biamou on to step up a level . After scoring just three times in 30 games prior to Clarke-Harris joining , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in 19 appearances , demonstrating that the competition for places massively improved City 's chance of promotion . As mentioned , both players acted as like-for-like replacements for one another . This was demonstrated when the common pattern developed of one starting the game and then being replaced by the other around the 60-70-minute mark . Having this at Robins 's disposal meant that City could maintain their physical dominance at the top of the field for the entire 90 minutes , which became a huge part of City 's playing style . Clarke-Harris , in particular , was a huge asset from the bench during the Play-Off games . With Biamou preferred to start , it meant JCH was able to come on late in matches to help see out victories , demonstrating his physical presence in both boxes , often dropping deeper into midfield to create a stronger defensive structure . The Sky Blues now have two excellent target men at their disposal heading into the upcoming League One campaign , both of which are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be a positive . City 's latest signing will also feel he still has more to prove after the goals dried up and that could become a lethal combination up top if talisman Marc McNulty can replicate this season 's exploits at the next level . With confirmation sealed on Clarke-Harris 's permanent arrival , the club seem well placed in the forward department with youngster Jordan Ponticelli still champing at the bit as well as summer signing Reise Allassani also capable of playing up front . The jury has been out for some fans , with some concerned that he failed to set the world alight in League Two , scoring just four times . However , the majority feel he 's been a huge positive for his all-round contribution and physical presence in both boxes . During his loan spell he was always playing catch up in terms of fitness , having been in and out of the Rotherham side and also missed the majority of 16/17 season with a cruciate ligament injury . With a full pre-season @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ prove to be an inspired signing as he has all the attributes at his disposal to live up to the potential he displayed first time round as a teenager on City 's books .

The former Sky Blues Academy graduate scored 44 points in the tenth annual event at Stoneleigh Deer Park Golf Club , with FA Cup legend Phillips - who won the event two years ago - finishing in the top five . Fellow Wembley hero Greg Downs came in second with 38 points while former Sky Blues boss Gordon Strachan was the winner of a new trophy for the best senior over 60 , collecting 37 points on the day .

Former Coventry City caretaker boss Frankie Bunn has been appointed as first team manager at Oldham Athletic . The Latics , who were relegated to League Two last month , have given the 55-year-old a one-year deal . The former Athletic striker made 88 appearances and scored 35 goals for the club between 1987 and 1990 before his career was cut short through injury . He famously scored six goals in a third round League Cup tie against Scarborough , a record which still stands to this day . Following his playing career Bunn held a number of coaching roles at clubs including Wigan Athletic , Coventry City , Manchester City , Rochdale and , most recently , Huddersfield Town . He was appointed caretaker manager of the Sky Blues in February 2008 when Iain Dowie was sacked before returning to his first-team coaching role at the club under Chris Coleman during City 's Championship years .

Pro-Vision Football claim that Mickleover Sports have agreed to sell the 18-year-old to the Sky Blues for what it says will be a record fee for the non-league club .

The promising 18-year-old also knows City 's development and coaching staff , including manager Mark Robins , having spent a week on trial with the club . Non-league Mickleover allowed Williams to train with the Sky Blues in April when he played in an Under-23s game at the Alan Higgs Centre . Although the 18-year-old made up a back four in a team that was thumped 5-1 by Barnsley , City 's coaching staff clearly saw enough quality in the teenager to want to pursue him further .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'got' is used transitively with 'a lot' as its object, and 'out of seeing...' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the NP object 'a lot' does not function as a causee.

Read about Street Law from our trainers Street Law has been a rewarding project for the organisers , pupils and particularly the trainers themselves . Some of the students who have been involved with Street Law agreed to feedback to us on their experience . We asked them to explain why they chose to participate , their experience of the programme and what they feel they have gained from it . Street Law appealed to me as it sounded like a really unique and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ new set of skills . The training weekend was great - a lot of fun and i was able to to learn alot about teaching a very accessible way . I got to meet so many different people from a variety of universities and years of study so it was a fantastic opportunity to meet new people and network . The Law Society made us all feel very welcome and three years later I can still remember how amazing the lunches were ! I was nervous before my first lesson but I soon realised that there was nothing to be worried about ! The school and teachers were all extremely welcoming and the kids were enthusiastic and respectful . They asked lots of very incisive questions and the whole experience was really enjoyable . It was after my first ever Street Law lesson I realised that , undoubtedly , teaching was the career that I wanted to pursue ! If you are thinking about signing up for Street Law I would say - just take the leap and go for it ! It 's a unique and invaluable experience that will set you apart fromothers when applying for jobs and provide you with practical skills that will help you with your degree as well . Getting the opporuntiy to go into a school and teach is not only fun but I always found it a welcome break from studying and something to look forward to . Coming into law from a slightly different angle , already having a degree , I was very enthusiastic about getting involved in something which could improve my understanding of the law in a practical manner . Therefore , the idea of being able to use my own skills to teach young people about the law appealed to me a great deal . I thought it would be a great way to improve my people skills and make a contribution towards the younger generation by affording them to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The training was great ! Up until that point , I had no exposure to what it would be like to teach or how people are taught . The training allowed me to see just that and , in fact , gave me an interest in teaching - it 's now something I have my eyes open to for the future ! The first thing you will notice when you arrive and meet your peers is that it is a very relaxed environment . Everyone was friendly and you find yourself making friends really easily , especially with all the team working activities the weekend has ! The passion of Street Law trainers definitely came across and they were excellent at providing us with all the tools we would require to teach classes ourselves . The use of various scenarios and exercises was really effective at getting me to think about all the different modes of teaching and by the end of the weekend I felt very confident about delivering my own classes . My favourite part of the training was getting to plan our own mock mini-lessons and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ feedback on the lesson I gave and it enabled me to polish up any aspect of my lesson that could have been better . I really enjoyed teaching ! It was great and a very rewarding experience . the students really engaged with me which was great to see , considering it was the first time I had taught anyone anything ! The students were very intrigued and asked a myriad of questions which even got me thinking . I felt that my first experience really let me see just how much I know about the law and how I transfer that knowledge to others . I also really appreciated the level of flexibility we were given to create our own lessons - it was a good challenge.I got along very well with my partner and we discussed our mode of approach before every lesson and created the lessons together . We came up with our own exercises to get the students interested and working with each other and they all paid @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the teacher explained that the class we had been assigned did not like working together and did not engage . However , by the end of that first lesson , he told us that he saw a completely different class ! Hearing this really encouraged us to work on providing better and more engaging lessons and I am looking forward to visitng my next school ! I would say do n't be frightened at the thought of creating your own lessons and teaching others . The Street Law trainers really go above and beyond at the training to make you feel as confident and as ready as you can be to confidently teach your own class ! You will be surprised at how much you can learn over a weekend , believe me ! Secondly , I 'd say be yourself and bring your own personality to the lessons and that way you 'll enjoy it far more and will make the most impact ! I really do think that the programme is something that is suitable @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you want to be involved with Street Law ? I think it was largely down to the fact that until day one of my university degree , I really was not in touch with how multifaceted and colourful the law can be . Therefore I was attracted to the idea of using the skills I 've learned to bring to life legal issues and encourage young people to be more informed . Very much so ! Any worries that you may have prior to attending the training are instantly dispelled on meeting the highly animated and supportive Street Law trainers . The training took place over a weekend and fostered an open , positive atmosphere designed to get the best out of everyone . I particularly enjoyed getting to plan and conduct our own mini-lessons in teams . We not only received helpful feedback from the trainers and our peers , but it also gave us some really good ideas for interactive lessons to then use in the schools . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ me with some great memories . I have been challenged ( and believe me , there is nothing more testing than the inquisitive mind a young person ) , but also supported by the strong network of other Street Lawyers . Me and my partners were given free rein over what we wanted to teach the class and so decided on a mix of human rights based topics alongside topical issues such as cyber bullying and assisted suicide , which generated high quality discussions.After each lesson we would analyse what worked well and what did n't and carried this forward to improve our next lessons . Seeing the class genuinly engage with what you are teaching them is a very rewarding feeling and one that I am eager to repeat ! First of all , you need to be sure that you can commit the time to prepare the lesson plans and attend each class . Other than that , I would recommend Street Law to anyone ! I have found that as well as consolidating @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ challenge my perceptions of law and given me confidence in my own teaching abilities . At first , Street Law seemed like something I could just add to my CV to show future employers that I had taken the initiative to take part in something outside of my studies . As well as this , the concept of Street Law interested me - to encourage young people to take up a career in law . The motivation I received when I was in high school to study law was n't great , so I believe any encouragment to study law is important for those who may not have thought about it . All of the schools that I have had the opportunity of working with have been amazing . At first it seemed daunting that I was heading to a completely new school , but after the initial introduction with the class and the teacher , everything was fine . The students in the class also really enjoyed having @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and they all actively engaged in what we were discussing . This made taking part in Street Law even better . The kids may seem at first unwilling to take part , but it 's the determination that you bring that enables them to fully enjoy the lesson at hand . That everyone needs a little encouragement . Sometimes when the class seemed a bit quiet we would ask the teacher to take part and once the teacher was involved the class seemed to find humour in it and would engage with the lesson a bit better . We also found that enabling the class to have debates about different opinions worked really well - the more they spoke the better the class was . The lessons also had to be very well prepared . That 's the key to having a really fun class - the more you know , the more the kids will enjoy it . You also have to be willing to communicate with your teaching partner outside of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Facebook with my partner throughout the week , each taking turns to create a lesson and prepare any notes we wanted to discuss with each other . What I learned does not work in class is where the pupils are forced to answer something they do n't know . We rarely did this but on occasion , we would ask them something to spark discussion . This can make them quite uncomfortable so the best way to deal with this situation is to ask your Street Law partner the question instead and they can come up with a quirky answer ! Or even better , ask the teacher and see what they say ! It is definitely an opportunity not to miss out on ! I have taken part in Street Law for the past two years and I only regret not taking part sooner . It has helped me to become a confident public speaker , has enabled me to develop my communication skills with my peers and has also given me the tools to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ As well as giving back to the students , it really does help you develop as a person and goes so much further than just being an addition to your CV . I signed up to be involved in Street Law because it 's the type of program I would have enjoyed at school . Before I went to university I had very little idea of what studying law would be like and just how vast the subject is . I certainly did n't know anyone who was studying law . Had I known someone studying the subject and been able to ask them questions I would have been far better prepared when I started the course . I was also interested in Street Law due to the type of schools which were being targeted . I attended a school where few people go on to higher education . I believe it is important to show pupils in such schools that they are just as capable as those in higher achieving schools and that studying law is an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ encourage other students to become a Street Law trainer ? I would encourage them to sign up . I 'd love to be able to do it all over again . It is a great experience which allows you not only to feel that you have benefitted the pupils but also to develop your own knowledge and presentation skills.It need not take up all that much of your time due to the number of lesson plans available to you . The program only takes a couple of hours a week so it is not difficult to find the time for it . I feel I am now more confident about my knowledge of the law . As I am still early on in my studies I felt that I did not have much knowledge , but when planning lessons and answering the pupils ' questions it was obvious that I knew more than I thought.I am also more confident in my own presentation skills . In the first few weeks I was nervous before going to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to them more and more . I signed up to Street law to dispel my knowledge of the law onto others . Being that they are of age where they will soon be entering employment , renting , and facing other contractual obligations for the first-time , it is vital that these pupils understand the nature of law and how much everyday life is effected and monitored by the law . Most people assume the law to be simply about crime and punishment but I wanted these pupils to understand that the law is more than that ; it is the basis of a civilised society , which is present from family disputes to property ownership to wills and succession . I built great relationships with the pupils and the class teacher and have expressed my absolute pleasure to work with them again . I am now helping out one of the pupils to establish a debate club at the school to benefit herself , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ A few pupils have expressed their desire to further their education of the law and so I have offered to help with personal statements in their applications for university . I would definitely recommend taking part ! It has been a thoroughly enjoyable and fulfilling experience . So much so that I have furthered my street law duties to work in another school . The pupils admire and respect your opinion , an experience I had considered rare . Prior to university , I had no idea what to expect from a law degree and always felt that the decision to study law was a leap of faith . Law is not an obvious career choice for many school kids because it is something that they know very little about . So I felt it was important to get into schools and share my knowledge and experiences to encourage those who had never considered law as a career and also to better prepare and inform @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in which going on to higher education , particularly to study law , is uncommon . I felt it was important to show that going on to further education or pursuing a career in law is not something that is , or should be , reserved to people from certain schools or backgrounds and to encourage the pupils to explore these options . The clear highlight for me was a mock trial which myself and my teaching partner Emily taught towards the end of our teaching time . We simulated four mini courtrooms in the class and provided court robes . The pupils really got into their roles and all argued excellent cases . In particular , those who were Judges came up with excellent reasoning for their decisions and proposed ' sentences ' that neither myself nor Emily would have dreamt they would have come up with . In our first week , we asked the class who was interested in studying law and there was only one pupil who showed an interest . In our last class we gave a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ students decided to take . It was fantastic to see that at least a handful of students had been encouraged to consider studying law in a school in which only two people went to University the previous year . I thoroughly enjoyed Street Law for several reasons . Firstly , working with students of all abilities in a variety of schools provided a challenge on top of the daily University routine . The process was also a very rewarding one in which the students that I worked with progressively became more and more involved in a legal way of thinking , to the extent that one of the schools I worked in enjoyed the programme so much that they integrated it into their curriculum . Lastly , working with various people across several locations allowed me to develop my professional connections , and have a greater appreciation for the teaching of law . On a personal level , I got a lot out of seeing the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the beginning of the course , as well as the progression of my understanding for handling the law in non-legal circles . On a more professional note , Street Law enhanced my proficiency with analysis and problem-solving in real life working environments , allowing me to spot critical issues in the lessons I taught and provide logical responses to questions in the classroom . The experience helped to develop my professional responsibility in teaching classes of up to 40 pupils , using a selection of IT equipment and sharing responsibility with my colleagues . If you 're thinking of signing up to Street Law , you might be surprised at how much you can get out of Street Law . I had a fixed placement in one Glasgow school , but branched out further to schools in Edinburgh which allowed me to compare these experiences , as well as further develop my teaching style . On the whole , the Street Law experience is a great one which can open doors for anybody with a legal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate structure. Additionally, the phrase 'out of weeping juries' does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate that would allow for a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'weeping' modifies the noun 'juries', similar to example (7b) in the given examples.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('we take them out of training'). It implies a prevention interpretation where the subject 'we' prevents the object 'them' from continuing 'training'. The verb 'take' can be understood as exerting force or pressure, fitting one of the semantic categories of verbs that appear in the V1 slot. The NP object 'them' functions as a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'training'. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

' There are lots of doubts within German football but , if you include the Confederations Cup , then Germany has made the semi-final of a major tournament eight times in a row . ' Photograph : Darren Staples/Reuters On a lazy Sunday afternoon in Berlin , while the rest of the city sinks into summery lethargy , Uli Hesse is hard at work in the offices of 11 Freunde . Once seen as the German version of When Saturday Comes , 11 Freunde has grown into a brilliant monthly " Magazin f ? r Fu ? ballkultur " . Hesse says : " We 're completing our World Cup issue and it 's been interesting looking at the national team . " There are lots of doubts within German football but , if you include the Confederations Cup , then Germany has made the semi-final of a major tournament eight times in a row . Every time since 2005 is incredible -- and unprecedented even for Germans . Our great team from the 1970s never did anything like that . So the mind boggles . " Read more There should be an even greater collective boggling of minds among supporters of the other 31 World Cup countries when hearing the former internationals Thomas Hitzlsperger and Lars Ricken echo Hesse after he addresses the " complicated and difficult conversations " rippling through German football . From the outside this strange uncertainty is initially hard to fathom . Germany arrive at the World Cup as the defending champions and last summer , in Russia , they won the Confederations Cup with a young squad as their manager , Joachim L ? w , rested established players including Manuel Neuer , Mats Hummels , Mesut ? zil and Thomas M ? ller . L ? w has even excluded Leroy San ? , after his blistering season for Manchester City , from the World Cup . If Germany are tussling with doubt , what hope remains for most other nations ? " We 've done a marvellous job over the last 15 years but we 're now at the crossroads again , " says Hitzlsperger , who was capped 52 times for Germany from 2004-10 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ most notably at Aston Villa . " The national team is playing really well and the management is excellent . But we have to rethink how we compete . You ca n't help notice that , with young players , English football is doing really well . France are producing very good players . We have to keep up with them . We 're constantly asking ourselves : ' Are we doing the right thing ? Should we change something ? ' And , in the Bundesliga , it 's quite worrying . " The 36-year-old occupies a challenging position at VfB Stuttgart . " I 've got two roles . I 'm the academy director and also a member of the executive committee . With the way German football and our club is structured we 've got 62,000 members and I 'm leading that with the president and one of my colleagues .

Photograph : Simon Hofmann/Bongarts/Getty Images After a difficult @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they beat Bayern Munich 4-1 away on the day the champions celebrated their latest title -- with the procession , for once , being overturned . It still felt a long way from May 2007 when Hitzlsperger scored in the last game of the season to ensure that Stuttgart became German champions . " It 's hard to foresee when we 're going to get a chance again because Bayern are so dominant , " he says . " You spoke to me about the great atmosphere at German games , and that fans here have much more say in the ownership of their teams than in England . That 's absolutely correct and the stadiums are still brilliant on match days . But everyone knows Bayern are champions next season . " I talked last night with a few experts and it 's hard to see a solution unless something changes with the regulation controlling club ownership . Bayern get stronger every year because they only think of competing with Real Madrid , Barcelona and Manchester City . " Hesse argues that , with the champions @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Bayern realise their dominance is not good for the league and , by extension , themselves " . Yet Manchester City were 19 points clear as Premier League champions , Barcelona had a 14-point cushion and PSG won by 13 points . " Yeah , " Hesse says , " but people are now complaining about the very boring football in the Bundesliga . Basically you have three teams playing attacking football : Leipzig , Dortmund and Bayern . " It 's hard to play attractive football when the Bundesliga is very competitive behind Bayern . The easiest way to grind out results is to put everybody behind the ball and rely on counterattacking . When Pep Guardiola came to Germany in 2013 Bayern became so consistently dominant the only way teams could survive against them was to play very deep . That became the mindset . " When Borussia Dortmund won successive league titles in 2011 and 2012 , and reached the Champions League final the following year , losing to Bayern , a new era beckoned . But they have not been the same force @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Dortmund to meet Ricken is a reminder of headier days -- the 41-year-old former midfielder scored one of the great Champions League final goals when Dortmund beat Juventus in 1997 . He also played 16 times for Germany between 1997 and 2002 . Ricken was born in Dortmund and he has been immersed in the club his whole career , from his junior days to heading the academy since 2009 . " I 'm a one-club guy and even my father played for the youth team , " Ricken says in English almost as excellent as that of Hitzlsperger and Hesse , " but I also care about German football . We are having some problems . " Lars Ricken : ' It 's difficult at Borussia Dortmund , we want to keep our culture but we also need to earn more money ' . Photograph : Lara Ingenbleek for the Guardian To keep in touch with the Premier League , in particular , values that have made German football special might need to be compromised . Ricken nods . " You 've said the right @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " Dortmund 's fans are arguably the most passionate in Germany and they protested fiercely against Monday night football -- a TV-money-driven exercise that copies Premier League strategy and undermines traditional Saturday afternoon matches . On a Monday night this February , against Augsburg , Dortmund had their smallest Bundesliga crowd for more than 20 years with 54,300 fans in a stadium that normally rocks with a capacity 81,300 crowd . " It 's difficult , " Ricken says . " We want to keep our culture but we also need to earn more money to compete with Bayern and the big European clubs . " Hesse agrees . " There were n't many Monday night games but people felt this was another step towards commercialisation and not caring about the fans . It 's difficult to be a fan-friendly league as well as an internationally competitive league at the same time . Everybody is walking a tightrope , so it 's a major concern . But fans realise they are a major selling point . The Bundesliga still appeals because the grounds are full , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " One of the things being discussed is the 50+1 rule stipulating that each club must hold a majority of its own voting rights to avoid losing control to external investors . This ensures clubs are basically fan-owned but there 's a slow eroding of the rule . Most fans want to keep it . " Do many supporters feel it is worth compromising success in Europe to keep German values intact ? " There are three camps . The largest camp is the match-going fans who say they can do without European success if things stay fan friendly . A smaller group says we have to change to become more competitive in Europe . And there 's a camp of people who are quitting the game . They have become very disillusioned . " A lot of people are not bothering to watch any more -- especially in the wake of PSG spending ludicrous amounts . A small group are being alienated because our football culture is different . Unlike an English fan who is used to his club being sold , we still have this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ game is not about making money . That 's deeply ingrained in us . " Paradoxically the dip in the Bundesliga 's quality has not undermined the national team . Unlike in the Premier League , young Germans are given a chance to shine by clubs who have less money to splash on overseas transfers . Playing in front of vociferous crowds , in tightly contested matches , develops future internationals . A few young English players , most obviously Jadon Sancho who is thriving at Dortmund , have moved to Germany to find opportunities denied to them in the Premier League . Joshua Kimmich is one of a strong new group of German players , but some question how long the country 's conveyor belt can keep producing such talent . Photograph : Patrik Stollarz/AFP/Getty Images Yet Ricken notes the progress of England 's academies . " Our under-17s played Tottenham and they were such great players , " he says before proceeding to outline a crucial difference between German and English academies . " In Germany you have to go to school until you 're @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ young footballers have to wake up before seven and then to go to a normal non-football school until four o'clock . They have some rest at home and the only football training they do is at 6pm . We make sure they are home by nine . " In England you have to go to school until you 're 16 . So in English academies you can train under professional conditions when you 're 15 or 16 . They train more intensively and have more time for sleeping or rehab and that 's a big advantage . It 's one reason why England 's youth are very good and very strong . " They 've also built great facilities and I 've seen them at Manchester City , Tottenham and Arsenal . Man City have 16 pitches for the youths . It 's marvellous . But we do n't want to change our way . We put education first because how many players will become professionals ? Also , they become more educated , better footballers in the end . " We still have success and won @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ because last year England won World Cups and a European championship with their under-17s , under-19s and under-20s . It 's very impressive . " His Dortmund boys were beaten by Tottenham 's academy but Ricken says : " I believe our kids will turn out to be better footballers for being educated . Our system still seems right . " At Stuttgart 's academy Hitzlsperger is emphatic . " I agree with Lars Ricken and in Stuttgart we take schooling very seriously . If someone is not very good at school we take them out of training . Sometimes I speak to young players , their parents , their agents and all they can think of is playing in big stadiums . But we have a responsibility to remind them that schooling is very important . " Read more Such a rounded approach underpins the enduring success of Germany 's national team , despite conflicted views of how best to protect fan values while transforming the Bundesliga . How does Hitzlsperger @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ARD and a Guardian columnist during the tournament , feel about Germany 's chances in Russia ? " With Germany you think : ' Great team , great squad but which player makes the difference ? ' Other teams have more key players . We do n't have a Messi , a Neymar , a Ronaldo . I 'm still optimistic because I was fortunate enough to be part of a German squad in the 2008 Euros and the 2010 World Cup . I know how well the management prepares for this tournament and I 've no doubt we will go very far . But the World Cup is not as predictable as the Bundesliga or Champions League . " Ricken believes " it will be very difficult to retain the trophy . We had lots of injuries with Neuer and J ? r ? me Boateng . For me Belgium are favourites with Brazil . It 's also going to be interesting to see England . Unfortunately for them Germany can play England in the quarter-finals . It 's obvious what will happen . England will lose @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up and get our daily football email The inevitable laugh is warm rather than mocking . A similar certainty courses through Hesse . Despite concerns about the future direction of German football , the success of their World Cup team remains a given . " We have points where we wonder if these good young players will keep arriving , " he says . " But we now have another strong group with young players like Joshua Kimmich . What they did last time in Russia , in the Confederations Cup , was really impressive . As I said , statistically , our success is crazy . " At 11 Freunde , we organise all kinds of events for the World Cup . We have public screenings in various locations . Every World Cup we work hard to set this up and somebody says : ' Hey , what if we go out in the group stage ? It will be a drama . ' Everybody then looks at each other . We think about Germany going out early in the World Cup and we kind of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ happen . We 're going to have a pretty good World Cup again . ' " |

A modestly sized municipal park in the London borough of Haringey has played host to the Imaginarium of the Right Honourable Jeremy Corbyn MP . To enter it was to embark on a journey of discovery . Part fun fair , part circus , part music festival , part socialist summer school , it was indeed a unique event . There were some exciting sounding attractions promised . " Hip Hop Karaoke with Unite " ( " Come and join Len McCluskey and the crew " ) ; a " Silent Disco with the GMB " ; and a " Feminist Jukebox " . There was a Sex Pistol ( punk band not SWP front organisation ) , and I spied Rachel Johnson too . Could those have been mere illusions ? Owen Jones , the shaman of British social democracy , was resident in the Solidarity Tent . Like all great fortune tellers , his clients seem to have forgotten some past predictions , such as how Jeremy Corbyn would lead the party to disaster , how Russell Brand would help make Ed Miliband prime minister , and how capitalism has passed into terminal crisis @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a curse on you . Like at all fun fairs , there 's a fair few barkers and charlatans around the Labour Party . Apparel for sale at Labour Live ( Sean O'Grady/The Independent ) I was looking forward to Barry Gardiner showing us his world-renowned skills as a contortionist ( the famous " ' a ' not ' the ' customs union " turn , always astonishing ) . Tom Watson , that old fakir , chose to stay home to lie on his bed of nails ; Diane Abbott ducked out of displaying her virtuoso skills on the tightrope of migration policy ( No Caps ! No Safety Net ! ) . Only the Unite leader was happy to prove yet again that he is " the strongest man in the movement " as the party 's largest affiliate ( and do n't you forget it ) and call for the abolition of all " anti " trade union legislation . There were other entertainments , but , not being as with-it as Jeremy ( this is true ) , I was n't so familiar @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I could n't be quite certain whether Levi Roots , Rae Morris or Nia Wyn were artistes or shadow ministers ( artistes as it goes ) , and , yes , I did get Clean Bandit mixed up with clean Brexit . Now , that was doubly unfortunate given the popularity of the " Bollocks to Brexit " stickers which were slapped onto seemingly every tote bag , lapel and rump in the place . A half-dozen pensioners in European flag T-shirts stood at the gates of this merry-go-round singing Abba songs with obscene lyrics about Theresa May . I did n't know whether to laugh or cry . A mere sideshow . Then there was Kate Osamor MP . She , you might not know , is the shadow international development secretary , with a fine future , but the organisers managed to misspell her name ( " Kate Osmar " ) which says something about how obscure some of the Labour team are . An ice cream van ( Sean O'Grady/The Independent ) Not so Corbyn himself of course and , yes , he is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ noticed his arrival -- there was a rush towards JC that threatened to overwhelm a mobility scooter -- he was already hugging a baby . I felt , like Terry Jones in the Python film Life of Brian , shouting : " He 's not the messiah , he 's a very naughty leader of the opposition . " I value my life though . On stage he did his usual blurbs , pressed all the usual buttons , and spent all the usual billions . All nonsense on stilts -- but all authentic . His voice cracked as he quoted from a Chilean poet and musician who had been tortured by the military regime there . At that moment that I saw something significant behind the curtain of our wizard . He is n't a circus act . He is n't pretending to believe in all that stuff ; he really does . He has a communion with his followers , and they share precisely the same cultural and literary tastes , as well as political values , as he does , maybe with some reservations on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . So they love him . It 's cultish . The question arises : have we passed " Peak Corbyn " . Plenty of the faithful -- that is the right word -- thought not . Labour 's present problems , such as they are , were temporary . Another election campaign would galvanise them and unleash the same kind of energy we saw in 2017 . Others , and more than I 'd thought , had to pause and think , and allow that maybe we 've passed a peak . The numbers at Labour Live are n't that important ; it 's simply their own fault for mismanaging expectations . They are right , too , to mock the idea of a Conservatives Live with Theresa May and , I du n no , Cliff Richard . The real point about " Peak Corbyn " is different . Perhaps , when he enjoyed that phenomenal " oooh Jeremy Corbyn " moment at Glastonbury a year ago , it went a little to his head . Perhaps he or his advisers had decided to capitalise on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at Labour Live ( Sean O'Grady/The Independent ) It would be understandable . The mass adulation , the cult of personality , the T-shirts , the badges and the posters ; it was all there in the park , and all of it unprecedented for Labour , even in the high noon of the Blair era , even at Neil Kinnock 's boastful " we 're alrights " at the infamous 1992 Sheffield Rally . It 's Stalinist , and not in an ironic way . Healthy it ai n't . So when Eddie Izzard told the crowd that they had in fact won last year -- " the election of perception " -- that was quite a North Korean sort of truth . They all talk of " when " we 're in government . Few noticed that Mr Corbyn could have collapsed the Tory government last week in the votes on Europe , but chose not to . The biggest holy mystery of all , that . Fire fighters attend @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Art four years after part of the Charles Rennie Mackintosh designed building was destroyed by fire .

HOLDERS of the digital currency Scotcoin will be given a bonus of four times their stake if they transfer , or " migrate " , to a new version of the coin . The Scotcoin owners are building a new blockchain , the engine which drives cryptocurrencies . The present one handles the buying and selling of coins , as a kind of digital bureau de change , with the information on transactions shared between thousands of computers throughout the world making it , in theory , uncrackable . " But it 's creaking and it 's expensive , " says Scotcoin co-owner David Low , " so our new one will be cheaper , faster and more reliable . " It will be , he adds , " the rock ' n ' roll version " . To encourage the present 4,000 holders of the currency ( including Sunday Herald readers who took up a free offer 18 months ago ) to migrate to the new coin they will be offered four new ones for each one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one pence , a hundred is a pound and so you 'll get five pounds for your pound if you take up the offer . " That offer is likely to last six months but Low ca n't say when it will start -- that will depend on when the new blockchain is finished , and he is n't putting a time on that . But he is confident that holders will make the switch . " Why keep an old Russian bearer bond , " is how he puts it , " when you can have a dollar ? " Another advantage of the new system is that people will be able to switch directly to and from the main established currencies , like sterling , the euro and the dollar . And it will take the volatility out of crypto-trading because scotcoin will be linked to the pound and not bitcoin , which has been highly volatile . So its value will rise or fall with sterling . Low has also offered scotcoin 's IP address to the Scottish Government which , if taken up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . He described initial meetings about it as " highly encouraging " . As he told the Sunday Herald in the past : " Here 's me , a guy who makes money out of the system and I basically latched onto the currency issue , the single biggest thing which lost the referendum . An independent Scotland must have its own currency , for better or worse . " Low may seem an unlikely rebel against financial orthodoxy but the accountant and financial adviser has a starry track record . It was him who organised , on the ground , the shareholder uprising which removed the seemingly impregnable families who owned Celtic and ushered in Fergus McCann , the jaggy bunneted Scottish ex-pat from Canada , who transformed the football club . When the new scotcoin is launched , Low and his partner Temple Melville will hold a stake worth , notionally , around ? 950 million . But he does n't intend to profit from it , all of it will go into what he calls a common wealth fund . " It will be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will benefit the poor and the disadvantaged . " Administered by a group of " the great and the good " , the plan is to pay young people in scotcoin to do good works for the benefit of the community . It 's a kind of quantitive easing in reverse , contrary to the present system where " the rich get richer and poorer get poorer , the poorer will get richer " . If under-25s are given , say , pounds1000 or pounds10,000 " they can do with it what they want , save it or spend it and if they spend it then it benefits the economy " . To spend it they need outlets , and not just the Arlington Bar , which Low owns . " I 'm confident that the big companies will get involved so that the kid will be able to walk into Greggs or M&S or any large retailer and buy what he or she wants using a card , just like now .

In a year when women 's issues were firmly in the public eye , the British Mountaineering Council 's members elected the organisation 's first female president . Lynne Robinson has more than 20 years ' experience as a BMC volunteer , from early office in her affiliated university mountaineering club to recent service as a vice-president . She qualified as a nurse and then as a social worker , and has worked for charities overseas and currently works in NHS management . She has worked on climbing guidebooks and in crag access . Last year she received the George Band Award for her voluntary contribution to the wider mountaineering community . grough asked Lynn Robinson if having a woman at the head of the 84,000-member body would see a change of leadership style . " I am the first female president , and it certainly has n't gone unnoticed that it 's the 100-year anniversary of the first female vote and when I was in Westminster the other day I bought some lovely gifts from the gift shop @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ looking at my skills and experience , and my volunteering background for the BMC , I just think I 'm the right person for the job . " I think it 's down to my personality and my approach , how I was brought up and my personal integrity and passion , " she said . " Whether that 's gender-specific , I do n't know ; I think it 's more to do with me as a person . " BMC membership has 27 per cent female membership . I think when I was secretary of the Peak area , that was something that was very important , not just in terms of women , but in terms of widening the diversity of people who came , whether it be young people -- it 's just so important to enrich the debate . " I do also co-chair the national women 's development group for the BMC and we 're always looking at how the BMC supports that : the women 's trad festival , the women 's climbing symposium , women in adventure film competition @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " With Shauna Coxsey , and what she 's doing and all the other top female climbers Leah Crane , Hazel Findlay , it 's just phenomenal , so I would want to just engage those role models -- they 're really important . " If people see that me being a female president , I 'm a role model to them , and actually you can do it , even though at times it has been tough , I 've been involved a long time but things are moving along so I 'm just very positive and I want to be able to tell every woman out there that it is important and you are able to get involved in committee work with the BMC and your voice will be heard . " The Midlands-based mountaineer beat Les Ainsworth in the vote for the BMC 's new president . Mr Ainsworth stood on a ticket of being a unifying candidate . How did she see her role in an organisation that has seen internal strife in the past year ? " I never saw Les as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ many years on the guidebook committee and I 've got the utmost respect for him . I do n't see any conflicts or tensions between us . " There 's lots and lots of work to do and , looking at what happened at the open forum in Manchester in May , in terms of the negotiations and what happened -- that was just phenomenal to be part of that democracy , so I would want to be wanting to work with people with different opinions because we are a democracy -- it 's brilliant .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'opts out of signing a contract extension' involves the verb 'opts' which does not fit the typical V1 verbs that induce movement/extraction or prevention interpretations. Additionally, there is no NP object that functions as a causee in relation to the VP2[-ing] predicate.

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('a good showing on the pitch') + V1 ('could get') + NP object ('them') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('doing military service'). It also induces a prevention interpretation, as the good showing on the pitch would prevent the players from having to do military service. The NP object 'them' functions as a causee, and the construction fits the semantic and syntactic criteria outlined.

A statement is expected from Zlatko Dalic , the Croatia coach , later today on the news that the Milan striker Nikola Kalinic has today been sent home from the World Cup . Kalinic apparently refused to come on as a substitute towards the end of the 2-0 win over Nigeria , claiming he had a back injury . The coach was not convinced , felt that his authority had been undermined , and today moved to resolve the issue . Here 's the story at 24sata.hr . " While Norway can of course be criticised for some of their negative World Cup performances ( not least that group game against 10-man Italy ) , surely any discussion of the least interesting knock-out tie ever has to start with Ukraine v Switzerland ? " posits David Hopkins . Well , it certainly has to end there . They might as well have stopped the game after 10 minutes and gone straight to a shoot-out , so inevitable was that outcome . And then even the penalties were boring @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ low-point for football and humanity . Just 80 minutes to kick-off , and fans are arriving in Nozhny Novgorod . Indeed we received this picture at 11.24am BST , well over an hour and a half before kick-off . Surely the only explanation for being not just at the ground but in your seat so early is that you 've got the kick-off time wrong : Sweden fans before the game against South Korea in Nizhny Novgorod . Photograph : Carlos Barria/Reuters @SimonBurnton I 've just been reading a thesis about predicting electricity consumption in Norway . The student did n't look at the effects of football ( or skiing ) . The student hands it in tomorrow , so should I suggest checking for these effects too ? To be fair , having qualified twice in the last 80 years and been jointly responsible in Marseille 20 years ago for perhaps the least interesting knock-out tie in recent history , Norway 's electrical infrastructure might have less to fear from the World Cup . @SimonBurnton I do n't think it 's so much electricity @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the water supply may be at risk 5 minutes after the final whistle when our beloved nation of functioning alcoholics simultaneously relieves itself of beer-y build-up . Britain 's National Grid is bracing themselves for a 500 megawatt electricity surge at half-time of tonight 's game between England and Tunisia . This , they tell me , " which is the equivalent to 23 million fridge doors opening at once , as fans reach for another beer " . " It 's our job as system operator to balance the country 's supply and demand of electricity second-by-second in real time and transport it from where it is generated , to where it is needed , " says Duncan Burt , their director of system operations . " With the increased popularity of catch-up TV , tablet devices and other social changes that have changed the nation 's viewing habits , it 's vital we are able to anticipate these trends and predict how people will behave . If England progress past the group stage and into the knock-out rounds , we anticipate these spikes will get @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Apparently if England reach the last four the half-timely surge could quadruple . I think honestly coming away from the France game it sort of refuelled us , knowing that we can tango with the best , I guess . I know the boys are still running on a high at the moment and I do n't think that 's going to change until the last game against Peru . I think we won a bit of respect from our own country , our own fans as well . Obviously we got a few plaudits from the France team and a few other people around the world . So it was nice but I think at the same time , we knew we had those performances in us . " In an angkot ( literally : city transportation ) here in Jakarta , " writes Heru Santoso .

Do you think the upcoming matches today would be able to restore it ?

But then it 's easy for me to say that , I have n't just listened to this : England 's Jesse Lingard celebrates scoring his side 's first goal against Holland during the international friendly match at the Amsterdam ArenA .

Sean Ingle says that VAR has been a success in the World Cup so far , and all the fuss about it is typical of how English football reacts to rule-changing innovation : Of course there have been mistakes . The decision not to award Argentina 's Christian Pavon a penalty against Iceland was particularly baffling . But VAR is getting it right more often than not . And for all the wailing on social media , the penalty awarded to Antoine Griezmann was a textbook example of how it should work -- a clear error spotted , the referee alerted and the decision reversed after it became clear Griezmann was spiked .

Barney Ronay 's piece on Russia 's role in his family history is excellently readable : There is a time and place for first-person stories , which is usually no time and no place .

" We ca n't lose again , " Jedinak said . " Everyone knows what is at stake , no one is kidding themselves ... we have got to get a result . And you have got to control all that emotion and try and stick to what is being asked of you and not stray away too much .

" Four days in , and we 've had the first instance of World Cup espionage , and surprisingly it did n't involved a drone -- or indeed anything more ingenious than a Swedish coach walking into a training session which he claims he thought was open . ( It was n't . ) It prompted an apology from Sweden manager Janne Andersson , but he stopped short of responding to allegations the coach in question , Lars Jacobsson , had rented a house across the road from South Korea 's training ground .

Speaking of El Diego , whether he 's missing in penalty shootouts or staring wide-eyed down television cameras , lifting World Cup trophies or scoring some of the greatest goals ever scored , Maradona has never been far away from making headlines at World Cups .

We can now add Peru 's Christian Cueva to the hall of shame after his botched effort proved the turning point in the South Americans ' opener against Denmark . It 's almost impossible to imagine how he must feel . Still , at least another big name has already added himself to this list this tournament ... What of Panama 's opponents in Sochi ? Kevin De Bruyne , Romelu Lukaku , Thibaut Courtois , Dries Mertens , er , Marouanne Fellaini -- this is a squad of the highest individual quality .

" He assures me he is giving the World Cup streaming problems his personal attention and he believes it will be fixed this evening . " Huzzah !

From footage on social media , it was as though the stadium was rocking . And so , with impeccable timing , England open their World Cup campaign later today . Can Tunisia join Mexico , Switzerland and Iceland in getting one over more illustrious opponents ? Yet , surely to suggest such an upset is even possible is to assume England are up there with the likes of Germany , Brazil and Argentina . And rankings , tournament history , national psyche and common sense tell us they are not , although try telling that to cheeky Tunisia coach Nabil Ma ? loul , who has asserted that Gareth Southgate 's men can go all the way in Russia . Clearly a born entertainer , that man -- much like the majority of Belgium 's squad , who also debut today , against Panama in Sochi , and also @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over them . Hazard , Lukaku and an exciting glut of Belgian talent have been much vaunted for years now but , as England ( and Belgium , for that matter ) know only too well , converting expectation into actual , real success can sometimes ( often ) prove difficult ( impossible ) . A Zlatan-less Sweden complete the day 's agenda ( actually they kick it off ) against South Korea . More on that one to come as I attempt build the excitement for the next three hours .

Andrew Roussos 's eight-year-old daughter Saffie was the youngest person killed in the terrorist attack at Manchester arena , but now he wants to raise money for other families affected by this form of violence . Andrew , 44 , wants to create a huge benefit concert like a " modern day Live Aid " to raise money for families and start a charity for future victims of terrorist attacks . The father said he wants " something good to come out of something so bad , " and said he and his family would have been left " on the streets " if it had not been for the financial aid they received from the Manchester fund and the One Love concert following the attack . Andrew and his family suffered every parent 's worst nightmare when bright and beautiful Saffie went to her first ever concert to see idol Ariana Grande perform -- but never came home . Saffie attended the concert in May last year , with her mother Lisa and her sister Ashlee Bromwich , and was the youngest of 22 people killed when a suicide bomber @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ suffered serious injuries . Andrew , 44 , who ran The Plaice fish and chip shop in Leyland where the family lived , has revealed that only a couple of years before the tragedy , they changed their plans for a trip to Paris in the wake of terror attacks that hit the city . Andrew , who is married to Lisa , recalls : " When terror attacks happen , many people are fearful of going to certain places on holiday and change their plans to protect themselves and their families . " Before all this happened , we had planned a family trip to Paris in 2015 but we cancelled because of the wave of terror attacks there . " As a parent , it scares you and makes you nervous . We did end up going in the end , but we went to Disneyland Paris and did n't go into the centre of Paris . We stayed away from the city that Saffie really wanted to visit because of the risks @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " I , as a father , did everything possible to protect my family to the point of stopping Saffie going on school trips because I would n't be there to protect her . " Not once did I think the young and innocent would be targeted at a concert . " Losing Saffie in such a horrific way has made Andrew and his family realise that , sometimes , however hard you try to look after your children , danger can be lurking anywhere . Andrew now wants to organise a massive music concert to honour the 22 people killed in the Manchester attack to raise money to support future victims of terror . Andrew wants the event to be like a " modern day Live Aid " and wants superstars such as U2 , Ed Sheeran , Take That , Liam and Noel Gallagher , Robbie Williams and Beyonce to take part in the memorial concert . Lancashire Cricket Club has agreed to stage the event on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but he has hit a stumbling block as he is struggling to get hold of big name music acts and ask them to perform . Andrew says : " Our lives have changed forever and nothing is going to make things better . " We ca n't move on as how can a parent move on from losing a child ? " I now have to channel my life into looking after my family and my 12-year-old son , Xander , and I also want to do something to get a positive out of my daughter 's short life . Andrew has criticised the Government for not doing enough to support terror victims and says that without the overwhelming public support shown to the We Love Manchester Emergency Fund and the One Love Manchester concert , he and his family would have been left struggling financially . He says : " If it was not for the generosity of the public , we would be on the streets . " We lost our daughter , our home and our business as there was no @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sell it . If it was not for the public coming together for the Manchester fund and the One Love concert , where would we be ? " Andrew says although the Government set out ? 24m to support Greater Manchester after the attack , this money did not go to the families and the support they received was from the Manchester fund . He believes the Government needs to set up something for victims of terrorism and wants the concert to raise money for future victims of terror attacks and create a charity to support them . Andrew explains : " Since this attack happened , the world stopped in its tracks . " People said : ' this is wrong . It should n't have happened . ' " The love , support and strength the public showed us helped us get through each day . " The heartfelt and ongoing support we have had till this day from Lancashire , Manchester , the UK and the world really has helped and I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " The aim of the concert is for a new charity to be set up in memory of the 22 to help future victims of terrorism . " I have spoken to some of the other families and they are in support of this . " Who is better qualified to look after victims of terrorism than us ? " The money raised will not be for the 22 -- we wo n't touch a penny of it . " The Manchester Emergency Fund and the One Love concert showed a staggering amount of support for everyone affected and ? 22m was raised . " This shows what good this world can do when it is united . " The world is a beautiful place . It is the evil in humans that messes it up . " What this attack has done is to unite the good people and there are a lot of good people out there who are standing together with love and support to say : ' enough is enough . ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of terror as , unfortunately , there are likely to be future victims , although I hope with all that I am that there wo n't be any . " When an atrocity does happen , those affected need help and support and this charity will be for future victims so they can get the support they need . " I have the full support and backing of Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham and Lord Kerslake to do what they can to get Government backing to put something in place to help future victims of terrorism . " Andrew also feels a concert featuring world famous stars will he a great way to bring the world and the community together through the power of music . Andrew says : " Music unites us all like nothing else . Every corner of the world is united with its love of music . " I want to celebrate Saffie 's life as she was such a vibrant little girl and she loved music . " By staging this concert , the country and the world can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The aim is to bring the good in people together . " Our loved ones lost their lives that night at a music concert and what better or fitting way to keep their spirits alive . " The profits of the concert 's ticket sales will go towards a charity to be set up in memory of our loved ones and to help and support future victims of terrorism in the UK . " Andrew is frustrated as despite many efforts from him and many other people , so far no music stars have confirmed they can attend the concert . Hectic tour schedules and trying to get hold of people through promoters has made his task even more difficult . Andrew is appealing to anyone who has contacts with big name music stars to help him in his mission . Andrew says : " I have secured one of the largest venues in the country on August 19 and the support of Simon Moran from SJM Concerts to make this happen once I get the world 's top artists @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I have been trying so hard to reach out to artists to perform at this concert . " We just need a big name to come on board and hopefully others will then come on board , too . " All we want is 20 minutes or half-an-hour of their time for them and for them to sing one song or sing all night . " In the grand scheme of things , I do n't think I am asking for too much . I just want something good to come out of something so evil and for the good people of this world to stand together for the sake of humanity . " I want to celebrate Saffie 's life and the lives of the rest of the 22 and keep their memories and spirits alive and set up a charity to help future victims so some good can come out of a tragedy .

" Before all this happened , we had planned a family trip to Paris in 2015 but we cancelled because of the wave of terror attacks there . " As a parent , it scares you and makes you nervous . We did end up going in the end , but we went to Disneyland Paris and did n't go into the centre of Paris .

" Not once did I think the young and innocent would be targeted at a concert . " Losing Saffie in such a horrific way has made Andrew and his family realise that , sometimes , however hard you try to look after your children , danger can be lurking anywhere . Andrew now wants to organise a massive music concert to honour the 22 people killed in the Manchester attack to raise money to support future victims of terror . Andrew wants the event to be like a " modern day Live Aid " and wants superstars such as U2 , Ed Sheeran , Take That , Liam and Noel Gallagher , Robbie Williams and Beyonce to take part in the memorial concert . Lancashire Cricket Club has agreed to stage the event on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but he has hit a stumbling block as he is struggling to get hold of big name music acts and ask them to perform . Andrew says : " Our lives have changed forever and nothing is going to make things better . " We ca n't move on as how can a parent move on from losing a child ? " I now have to channel my life into looking after my family and my 12-year-old son , Xander , and I also want to do something to get a positive out of my daughter 's short life . Andrew has criticised the Government for not doing enough to support terror victims and says that without the overwhelming public support shown to the We Love Manchester Emergency Fund and the One Love Manchester concert , he and his family would have been left struggling financially . He says : " If it was not for the generosity of the public , we would be on the streets . " We lost our daughter , our home and our business as there was no @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sell it .

He believes the Government needs to set up something for victims of terrorism and wants the concert to raise money for future victims of terror attacks and create a charity to support them . Andrew explains : " Since this attack happened , the world stopped in its tracks . " People said : ' this is wrong . It should n't have happened .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It also does not give rise to either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'come out of' in a different context, unrelated to the transitive out of -ing construction.

Andrew Roussos 's eight-year-old daughter Saffie was the youngest person killed in the terrorist attack at Manchester arena , but now he wants to raise money for other families affected by this form of violence .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves the phrase 'to take weight out of packaging', where 'packaging' is a noun, not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Its tools are used by plastic packaging companies supplying trays and containers used to store , protect , and attract customers perusing produce found on thousands of supermarket shelves and other retail outlets . Established in 1977 by current managing director Martin Baker and former colleague Terry Morley , the company , which employs around 70 staff , uses the latest metalworking , CAD/CAM and automation technology to produce precision moulds and patterns used to thermoform millions of plastic packaging products every year . As well as supplying the UK around 20% of the moulds TMB manufactures are also sent for export to companies in Europe , the US and beyond . The company has a wide range of CNC and other metalworking machines in its @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ machine , blade forming machines , a Mollart gundrill , a DMG Mori UMC and a 5-axis EDM machine . Mr Baker has also designed and invested in an Erowa robotic manufacturing cell linked to two Hermle 5-axis machining centres , two DMG Mori 5-axis DMU milling machines and a TEK4 EDM hole sparking machine which operates 24/7 . TMB offers manufacturing support right from the design of components through to trials and finally the implementation of full production . Although the shopfloor handles a range of materials , the majority of the moulds and associated parts are machined from solid aluminium billets . These square workpieces can range from 500mm to 1m in size and before machining can weigh up to 100kg or more . The moulds themselves are also mounted on large aluminium plates so they can be placed on the thermoforming machines . The plates require large amounts of metal removal ; it 's not unusual that around 90% of the aluminium is removed during machining leading to substantial amounts of swarf which has to be managed . Beating the bottlenecks The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bottleneck in production at TMB . Handling the large billets between each machining operation was awkward and frequent stoppages were required to deal with swarf build up . " I used to machine the plates on a conventional vertical CNC machine , " Mr Baker explains . " It has a large table and slideways . The problem was that swarf would build up and get compacted in the slideways which would then cause problems and stoppages . Ideally , I wanted to machine horizontally . " Mr Baker searched the market to find a CNC machine that could offer him a solution . When he saw a Grob universal machining centre in action he realised it could offer an alternative . The Grob G series machine 's X- and Z-axes are located on the cutting tool side while the Y-axis and A/B-axes overhang the workpiece . Typical mould plate produced at TMB Patterns in Somerset Mr Baker continues : " The Grob 5-axis system has a table that can actually turn upside down which means I can easily machine horizontally . The swarf simply @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out of the machine and then into a compactor . " Mr Baker needed a machine that could handle large workpieces so he opted for the Grob G750 with axis travels of 1,000mm in X , 1,100 in Y and 1,170 in Z , which can deal with the largest tool plates that TMB manufactures . The new machine , which was installed at the Somerset factory in November 2017 , has greatly reduced cycle times due to its substantially improved machining capability and multi-axis flexibility . " It 's not just the machining time that has reduced considerably but also the number of operations that also saves time , " Mr Baker explains . " With the process before we would rough machine the workpiece , turn it over and then rough machine again . Then it would be taken to a gundrilling machine to add the holes that the cooling water flows through ; then it would come back onto the first machine for finish machining on each side . Then the part would go onto a surface grinder for the final finish . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to just two operations . I can rough machine and finish machine in one set-up and then gundrill . The surface finish is so good we have dispensed with the grinding operation completely . With the cutting tools we use the metal removal is amazing . I never thought these speeds and feeds could be possible . It has halved machining time and more . " At the moment the large workpieces are placed on the machine using a crane but in future Mr Baker is looking at robotic loading options which could also be used to service another Grob machine . An important factor for Mr Baker was the service and support TMB Patterns would receive from Grob UK . Installation of the large machine at the factory , including the hire of a large 100-ton crane , was organised by Grob , along with operator training , full UK service support additionally linked to the machine builder 's factory in Germany giving 24 hours per day , 360 days per year assistance . He says : " What I liked about the Grob machine , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that they focus mainly on building one type of machine , just in different sizes . I know this means they can swiftly and easily service our machines . The support and response time from Grob has been excellent . " Seeking new sectors The capability of the new machine is also hastening TMB 's ambitions to widen the industry sectors it serves . The ISO 9001 certified company is exploring markets such as aerospace , nuclear and composite component manufacturing where its skill set and machining capabilities can readily cross over . Grob G750 , 5-axis machining centre " We work to exacting standards day-to-day and we know what other opportunities exist for large 5-axis machining in other demanding sectors , " Mr Baker affirms . " Our new production manager was formerly employed in aerospace and we have a great skills base at the company with many members of staff having more than 25 years ' service . Additionally , we take on two apprentices each year who get a very wide range of training at the company . " The acquisition of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ company 's approach that has served it so well over the years . As well as new tech and hardware , manufacturing software has had a major impact on TMB 's lead-times and productivity according to Mr Baker . The company uses SolidWorks , Rhino 3D and Edgecam to design and manufacture the moulds and other parts it produces and for uniformity , Heidenhain CNCs are used on all the company 's machine tools . " Software has made an enormous difference , especially in our industry where we generally produce small batches from 1- to 15- offs , " Mr Baker says . " We can design moulds and carry out water flow analysis to prove they will perform before we start cutting metal . In the past , because of the amount of time needed for programming and trials it was difficult to make these kinds of runs cost effective . " This flexibility is crucial in an industry where package designs can be short-lived and there is a constant drive , both commercially and environmentally , to reduce the amount of weight and plastics used @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to take weight out of packaging , but we still have to maintain the strength in the design so the end product can fulfil its function , be de-nested and go through high-speed packing lines without twisting or buckling . Now we can prove things through using the software . It has added a much more scientific approach to the thermoforming industry . " Mr Baker asserts the arrival of the Grob machine is reducing manufacturing cost not only for TMB Patterns but also for its his customers in a highly competitive global market . " Our strategy at TMB is constant improvement . With the introduction of the Grob G750 we are at the forefront of machining technology . It has reduced machining times of large components and therefore not only reduced delivery times for our customers , but also has brought our pressurised profit margin back to a sustainable level .

In the mid-20th century , the term Anthropophagy -- the custom of eating human flesh -- was reclaimed as a worldview by Brazilian philosopher , Oswald de Andrade . It 's a symbolic devouring and digesting of external influences and information , and their subsequent transformation into something new and entirely Brazilian , where the flesh of one piece becomes the stem cells of another . As individuals , we too cannibalise the information of others for the construction of ourselves . Plumbing through the deluge -- ongs , poems , philosophies , relationships , news , histories -- we gradually hone in on our music , the stuff that strikes like lightning and catalyses our own art . We devour the flesh of others to discover what exists in our own . This idea is paramount in the career of composer/trumpeter , Jon Hassell , whose background is flush with music of all shapes and shades . The Memphis-born musician studied with both the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , best known for his ragas -- arrays of melodic structures meant to affect audiences and colour the mind . He 's played in ensembles led by minimalist forefathers , La Monte Young and Terry Riley , collaborated with Brian Eno , Bj ? rk , Talking Heads , Peter Gabriel , and the techno producer Carl Craig , and studied indigenous music all over the world . He has devoured multitudes . In turn his artistic identity is rich , variegated , and entirely his own . His latest record , Listening to Pictures ( Pentimento Volume One ) -- released June 8 via his own label , Ndeya -- runs the gamut . It crosses space and time , careening through a lattice of electronics and doctored trumpet sounds , inflected by music from India , South America , and Africa . Listening is among Hassell 's finest work and emblematic of his approach to music , one that seeks to transcend distinction between genre and culture alike . " It was a music I felt I 'd been waiting for , " Eno wrote , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and collaborator in an article called , " The Debt I Owe to Jon Hassell . " Know it or not , we likely all owe similar debuts . For all that he has devoured , he has produced even more . The pictures heard in Listening are among his finest , and they 're more than mere reflections of an identity -- they are demonstrations of a man who has touched the world . Hassell , who pursued -- but never finished -- a Ph.D . in musicology at Catholic University , is perhaps best-known for an aesthetic called Fourth World -- first demonstrated on the 1980 album Fourth World , Vol. 1 : Possible Musics . In his words , the genre is " a unified primitive/futuristic sound combining features of world ethnic styles with advanced electronic techniques . " It 's an approach that fuses the heady with the physical and the spiritual , a minimalist framework informed by music from all over the world . Possible Musics , a collaborative project with Eno , featured a worldly cast : Welsh guitarist Percy Jones ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Dieng ( Yoko Ono , Bob Marley , Mick Jagger ) , and the great Brazilian percussionist , Nan ? Vasconcelos ( Brian Eno , Pat Metheny ) . To Hassell , all music deserves its place in the evolution of consciousness . His zeal for probing the vastness of human culture , and mixing approaches from the Western zeitgeist with musical elements outside of it -- some largely absent from the digital world -- has broadened our awareness of musical possibility . Throughout the development of the Fourth World , Hassell has manifested a singular encyclopedic style that 's fascinated an ever-growing list of fans and collaborators . Since Possible Musics , Hassell has worked with iconic Burkina Faso group , Farafina , folk musician , Ani DiFranco , Ry Cooder ( director of the Cuban ensemble Buena Vista Social Club and the eighth greatest guitarist of all-time , as ranked by Rolling Stone ) , and 11-time Grammy-winning producer Daniel Lanois ( Bob Dylan , Neil Young , U2 ) . More recently , his music has been sampled by seminal electronic musicians like Ricardo Villalobos , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sparked a new generation of composers who explicitly invoke his Fourth World ideas , using malleted percussion and abstract electronics as a way of processing the strangeness of the world they live in . These distinct musical traditions need links like Hassell to find their way to one another and demonstrate they can work together . His pieces are masterclasses on syncretic art , uniting various origins while subtly avoiding the sordid tinge of cultural appropriation -- a subject worth broaching for anyone ( especially a white man ) who samples what he himself refers to as " primitive " and " world ethnic " music . Two weeks ago , over the phone , I asked Hassell how he navigates that field . " Given the digital world , " he responded . " You have the ability to make a mosaic out of anything . And there are little dropperfuls in everything I do , because to be blind to the things that exist is foolish . And when developed in a certain way , it reveals a love for that music . " The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ best known for his album cover artwork , most notably Miles Davis 's Bitches Brew , Santana 's Abraxas , and several of Hassell 's own records . " In his work , there are cosmic , spiritual , sexual figures -- figures taken out of Playboy , for instance -- painted in a different context . This is all part of the cosmology of being and it should n't be left out because they happen to have appeared in another context , " he remarked of Klarwein 's collagist visuals . " That 's simply being aware of the world and aware of the things we really like , and being able to be subtle enough to represent them as new and different from the other . But if what you like is n't apparent to you yet , you 're not going to do it justice , and you 're not going to present things with enough respect . " Hassell Live in 2009 / Photo by Jack Vartoogian/Getty Images Pentimento Volume One ( there is to be a Volume 2 ) is dedicated to Klarwein @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ earlier images , forms , and strokes reappear as different elements in the final composition -- not dissimilar to the assemblage of elements in Klarwein 's work . Both styles convey an awareness of the characters that converge to make the whole , and both artists work with the various palettes of the earth , from North to South -- a loose distinction that Hassell commonly makes : the elements of art that make us think ( North ) versus the elements that make us move ( South ) . On the surface , the " North/South attitude " -- as he called it , which informs his long-in-the-works book , The North and South of You -- may seem a suggestion of division , or at least a facile distinction , but Hassell has always made an effort to present the idea holistically . We have a body and a mind but they are one being . We have a North and a South but they are one world . And within , multitudes . Ultimately both Hassell and Klarwein explore the intersections of our Norths and Souths , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The two artists spent time together at Klarwein 's home in Dei ? -- the namesake of Hassell 's Warp-affiliated label -- on the Spanish island of Majorca not long before his death in 2002 . " I was so inspired by his paintings about the combination of the North and the South , the spiritual , the secular , the sexual ... I 've always said that if I could make my music sound like his paintings , I would be happy . " Hassell 's dedication sits on the inside of the LP , and the cover itself mildly resembles one of Klarwein 's pieces . The prominent woman was taken from a pulp magazine cover in India when Hassell was studying with Nath . She represents the adoration of nature , beauty , and sexuality , he says . Her hand is reaching for a vine , which has become the superimposed Landsat image of the Nile River that was used on the cover of Possible Musics . And covering the left of the collage are the venetian blinds in Hassell 's room , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what I want to say , " Hassell told me . " You could call it collage , but I call it a demonstration , a psychological pentimento . " Listening to Pictures is painted in broad swathes . Its opener , " Dreaming , " throbs to life with low-end thuds and a repeated piano melody . Portions are slightly askew , off-putting , like rewinding torn tape . Eventually they merge in distorted drone -- a dream half remembered upon waking . In swift divergence , Hassell hits the next track , " Picnic , " full boar . It 's skittering and frenetic with a barrage of tones , like a coked-out night in Tokyo or Times Square , but it too recedes to breathy ambience . More clearly tapping into his global influences , " Slipstream " features complex rhythms barreling along beneath a glowing canopy of ambience . And in " Manga Scene , " industrial electronics sound below Hassell 's muted trumpet , like a modern adaptation of Miles ' In a Silent Way era . In total , dozens of soundscapes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ evolving characters . There are always more pictures to be listened to , but the next is no more important than the now . Hassell suggests we listen to Pentimento vertically -- a concept borrowed from La Monte Young -- which can be done by " letting your inner ears scan up and down the sonic spectrum , asking what kind of ' shapes ' you 're seeing , then noticing how that picture morphs as the music moves through Time , " he wrote for his press release . Listening in this way reveals a tapestry of Hassell 's vast cosmos . He clearly respects the modes in which he dabbles -- the mark of a veteran musicologist -- as each cultural hallmark is briefly suggested , never parroted , and then constructed as new and different from the other . Each picture reflects the thoughtful digestion of his influences . Love , even . And their aggregate is an arousal of provincial spirit that invites us to become curious about the world , and about the worlds -- North and South -- Hassell invokes in his music @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Photo by Roman Koval Hassell 's curiosity was on display in our 90-minute conversation , too . He showed genuine interest in the millennial generation , with a greater air of kinship than afforded by most non-millennials . We 're simply another important picture in the cosmos to listen to . He made specific inquiry about our interest in psychedelics -- are they common , are they still used to better understand the self -- probably wondering how we discover who we are in an internet-coloured world of over-information and fake news . " What you 're attracted to is controlled by the word-stream and the abstraction of the headline , and your friends saying listen to this or listen to that , " he said . " You can become the you that 's made up of a patchwork of personalities and do 's and don'ts and propaganda , so it 's really hard to find your way to authenticity . " Indeed , we are the layers of earlier forms , the cannibals of human ideas , a pentimento of ever-evolving pictures . But the bad @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ filter through the noise and find that stuff that strikes like lightning ? Our authentic self ? Perhaps we should start by listening vertically . Too quickly we shed a snapshot after a glance through the narrow lens of the viewfinder . What if we allowed ourselves to explore a fuller spectrum , to become more curious about its shapes , to devour and digest , and to observe the evolutions in our own flesh . A pause in the infinite scroll . Ask : how do these pictures make me feel ? Do I want this to colour my own identity ? And in the end , which pictures will be part of my psychological pentimento ? These are the questions of those greatest of challenges : discovering ourselves and how we fit in a world so diverse and so grand . Within it , and within us , multitudes . Infinite ways to live , and upon closer examination , there is always beauty to be found -- if only we remember to listen . Keagon Voyce is a writer based in New York . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses the phrase 'making a virtue out of being divided and clueless,' where 'out of' is followed by a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

One of the advantages of having several different hobbies is that I get the chance to look at things through different lenses . Aside from blogging I am also into reading , hiking , poetry , dance fitness , and amateur dramatics , and the last one can often feel quite therapeutic -- but then , pretending to be someone you 're not for two hours a night can hardly fail to be . Currently I 'm involved in a production of the musical Fame , set in a performing-arts school in New York in the early 1980s . The show has a number of storylines , but the stand-out one concerns the ambitious and celebrity-obsessed performer Carmen Diaz . As one of the 97 kids out of 4,000 who got into the school , she is not short of self-belief , but chafes against the institution 's teaching , desperate to break out into Broadway and beyond . As Carmen continues to dream of seeing her name in lights , her patience with her teachers ultimately snaps , and she drops out of school to move to Los Angeles @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ warning from her drama tutor that she 's making the biggest mistake of her life . Needless to say , things do n't go quite according to plan for her ... Two years into the ongoing ( so far ) music-free drama that is the Brexit process , it 's a fair verdict that things are n't going quite according to the original plan . That 's assuming , of course , that there was an original plan to start with , and that it was n't actually an elaborate ruse by the likes of billionaires like Arron Banks and Jacob Rees-Mogg , and media moguls like Rothermere and the Barclays to avoid having their tax loopholes being closed by Brussels ... To give them their due , the Brexiteers never proclaimed in so many words that we were all going to Live Forever and Learn How To Fly , but they might just as well have done . DExEU Secretary David Davis is a man who appears to see his job as daily to give evidence of how out of his depth he is ; there are reports @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lampooning of him as the bungling Brexit Bulldog in BBC Radio 4 's Dead Ringers , which suggests he may not quite be getting the joke . At one point he seemed to have forgotten that most of Ireland was no longer within British jurisdiction . Trade Whatever-Bloke Liam Fox ( he of the " Brexit the easiest deal in history " claim ) apparently reckons the best way of preparing the UK for its departure from the EU is to lecture experienced businessmen on how he thinks they do their job . As for that fabled popular tribune ( sic ) , the mysteriously un-sackable Alexander Boris DePfeffel Johnson ( to give him his full name ) , the less said about his levels of competence , the better . A process designed to Take Back Control ( which , it ought to be obvious to all by now , has never truly been lost -- if it had , there would have been similarly strong and significant Exit movements in every single EU member state by now ) of our **45;272;TOOLONG ... Random Noun Here is being @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pretending to take control of her own small flock . The received wisdom has it that Theresa May is being forced to pursue a harder Brexit than she would prefer , by the twin forces of the pro-Hard Breixt Tories in the European Research Group ( chaired by Rees-Mogg ) , and the suits from Arlene 's Big House in Ballymena . Yet , both those groups raised few murmurs when Mrs May agreed to the Transition Deal back in December , which included ' full alignment with the rules of the internal market and the customs union which support north-south co-operation ' ( which sounds pretty much like a commitment to a Soft Brexit ) . For all their bluster , both the ERG and the DUP know that if they push their luck too far it could send Mrs May 's house of cards tumbling down , resulting in a general election that might be won by Jeremy Corbyn 's Labour Party . Then again , if imperilling Brexit is their only fear here , they need n't worry too much , as Corbyn wants a hard Brexit @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Brexit involving a lot of fence-sitting , with both men seemingly oblivious to the thought that anyone might notice this , much less point it out to them .

Yet , those of us who point out how the promises of two years ago are highly unlikely to be honoured are probably wasting our time . As befitting the age in which we 're stuck , this process has gone beyond fact-checking and inconsistency-spotting : in cyberspace and other spaces Brexit has now become a cult , an article of faith rather than reason , with patient reminders of the cock-ups , hypocrisies and lies of its adherents coming up against argument-closing mantras like ' You Lost -- Get Over It , Remoaners @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Do n't You Understand ? ' , ' The EU Is Undemocratic ' ( in a way , presumably , that the WTO is n't ... ) , and ' If You Hate Britain Why Do n't You Move to Europe ? ' I suspect that this will continue even if -- as the experts of whom Michael Gove once claimed we 'd had enough have insisted -- the hard Brexit that his government nominally wants does lead to economic , social and political meltdown in the UK . I do n't believe for a minute that Sir Tim Berners-Lee intended this for his invention , but the World Wide Web 's relative anonymity has certainly allowed a significant chunk of its users to forget that they 're not in school any more . Put simply , the biggest show in town is one colossal steaming mess , with the actors frequently fluffing their lines , missing their cues , singing woefully out of both tune and time , and even , every now and then , wondering out loud what show it is they 're meant to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and crew do n't seem to care too much that they 're in charge of such a disaster -- even though their audience ( for which read , the rest of the world ) are unlikely to hang around long to part with their money for repeat performances . Carmen Diaz , the fictional immortality-seeker in Fame , knows more than a few things about the dangers of getting involved in a disastrous show , but she finds out the hard way . After being assaulted by her LA agent she is forced to work as a stripper , gets involved with a bad crowd , and dabbles in hard drugs . Limping back to New York , her dreams shattered , she succumbs to an overdose . As to whether she ultimately accepts that she made the wrong decision in dropping out of the PA school , the audience can only speculate , from the closing words of her last song : Yes , they know how to do it in LA , They know that somewhere up there the sky is blue , So smile when @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And you 'll get what is comin ' to you : In LA your dreams all come true As the Brexit Show begins its third year of performances , the best that those of us at the front-of-house can hope for , given our hopeless cast and crew , is that they will ultimately get their collective act together , and at the very least meet their long-suffering audience half-way , and work towards a satisfactory yet believable end . After all , when Carmen sings ' People will see me and cry ' she is proved right -- but not in the way she expected . |

Shares Australia 's national broadcaster ABC News has today revealed that Perth-based digital healthcare service HealthEngine -- whose app and site have been used by millions of Australians to book medical appointments -- has been sharing patient information with law firms on the hunt for personal injury cases . That information is then being used to target ad campaigns at applicable HealthEngine users . The news broke after the ABC received documents from law firm Slater & Gordon that reveal the healthcare startup has been sharing lists of potential clients with the firm on a daily basis as part of a " referral partnership pilot " , with an average of 200 client recommendations made each month . When using HealthEngine to book appointments with a medical practitioner , patients are not only required to fill in details of their symptoms and existing medical conditions , but also whether they have suffered a workplace injury or been involved in a road accident . HealthEngine has said that the company shares information with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ company 's privacy policy further states that patient information may be disclosed to " other persons , such as third party providers " including law firms . Although the policy makes no explicit mention of sharing information for targeted advertising , the wording of the end-user license agreement ( EULA ) leaves plenty of potential wriggle room to allow the practice . HealthEngine 's privacy policy A " Data Collection " statement on the mobile app also states that , " If you consent , we may also provide your personal information to providers of other products and services which may be of interest to you , such as private health insurance comparison services , providers of finance credit for cosmetic and dental procedures , and providers of legal services . " There is , however , no other option but to accept the terms and conditions of use of the app , and no way to opt out of having information shared with third parties . According to the documents received by ABC News , the sharing of patient information gave Slater & Gordon 40 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ without having paid a fee for receiving the information during the pilot program . This is n't the first time HealthEngine has found itself in hot water . Earlier this month , Fairfax Media revealed that the company was tampering with user reviews to remove any negative comments . While HealthEngine claimed to publish only positive reviews on its site or on partner practice pages , the investigation revealed that about 53% of user reviews were edited in some way before they went live . HealthEngine , which is owned in part by Telstra and SevenWest Media , claims to have 1.5 million users a month , with 15 million users a year . |

A month after the enforcement date of the General Data Protection Regulation -- a law that businesses had two years to prepare for -- many websites are still locking out users in the European Union as a method of compliance . To celebrate the milestone , El Reg is casting a vulture 's eye over the sites that are giving a new meaning to the phrase " barrier protection " . Among the sites that Reg readers have moaned to us about are talk show podcast DrLaura.com , vintage clothes outlet ModCloth and American sports shop Dick 's Sporting Goods . Another retailer that failed to get its house in order is posh homeware store Pottery Barn , whose notice says that " due to technical challenges caused by new regulations in Europe " it ca n't accept orders from the EU . " The pace of global regulations is hard to predict , " the shop complains about the legislation , which was adopted on 14 April 2016 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ able to offer our products everywhere . " There are also a whole host of local media outlets that are shying away from dealing with the matter , including Narcity , Fredericksburg , The Advocate and the Hutchinson Leader . No doubt some smaller outfits lack the resources to justify serving what 's likely to be a small number of readers in the bloc . Less understandable -- though not vastly unsurprising -- is the news that major US publisher Tronc , which owns a number of the US 's top-selling outlets such as The LA Times , the Chicago Tribune and the New York Daily News , remains blocked for those on the wrong side of the Pond . Although its redirect message still states that the firm is " engaged on the issue and committed to looking at options that support our full range of digital offerings to the EU market " , the blocking might hint that its efforts either have n't been in earnest or the firm is n't that bothered about EU readers ( we asked the publisher for a progress update @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Similarly , Instapaper and Unroll.me have yet to restore EU access to their services . However , if you were thinking that compliance should be simple , there 's plenty of evidence to the contrary -- a great example being Forbes , which manages to make tracking-free access to its site so difficult you 'd be forgiven for giving up . Once users click the ( much less prominent ) button to change their preferences , they 're offered a set of clear , granular options for cookies .

A review of house building has called for changes to the current system to ensure new homes are built faster and for thousands more British bricklayers to be trained to help meet government targets . Sir Oliver Letwin was commissioned by the government to examine what could be done to speed up the slow rate of house building on major sites . His study , published today ( 25 June 2018 ) , warns developers are slowing the system down by limiting the number of new built homes that are released for sale at any one time . The practice is designed to prevent a glut of new built homes driving down prices in the local market and is known as the ' absorption rate ' . However the report suggests that developers could increase the choice of design , size and tenure of new homes without impacting on the local market and therefore speed up the rate at which houses are built and sold . The report concludes that " .... to obtain more rapid building out of the largest sites we need more variety within those sites " . The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a " significant biting constraint " on government plans to boost the number of new homes built from 220,000 a year to 300,000 . To meet the shortfall the analysis calls for 15,000 more bricklayers , almost a quarter of the size of the current workforce , to be trained over the next 5 years . It suggests that to " raise production of new homes from about 220,000 to about 300,000 ... the government and major house builders work together ... on a 5 year ' flash ' programme of pure on the job training . " Rt . Hon. Sir Oliver Letwin MP said : I would like to thank everyone who has contributed to the Review Panel 's work to date in analysing all possible reasons behind the slow build out of housing sites . It is clear that the main cause for delay is the absorption rate . We found that if house builders were to offer more variety of homes and in more distinct settings then overall build out rates could be substantially accelerated . Secretary of State for Communities @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ We want to help people onto the housing ladder , and so I would like to thank Sir Oliver and the expert panel for their excellent work .

Chris Grayling has been branded a " chicken " for pulling out of a railway conference addressing the travel chaos that has gripped the north in recent weeks . The transport secretary had been due to speak to the Northern Transport Summit in Manchester on Monday , but he cancelled his appearance in order to be in London for the crunch vote on a third runway at Heathrow . Mick Cash , the general secretary of the RMT union , said Grayling was " running scared " . " He 's scared of the passengers he 's hung out to dry and he 's scared of the staff whose safety-critical jobs his franchise shambles have left facing the axe , " he said . " Chris Grayling may have chickened out of meeting RMT members and their supporters today but I 've got a message for him - you can run but you ca n't hide . " The union tweeted a photo of a man dressed as a chicken wearing a Grayling mask outside the event @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ train operators over the role of guards on trains , which have sparked a series of strikes over the past two years . A Department for Transport spokesman said : " The secretary of state is not attending the summit as he is in London for the National Policy Statement in Parliament , a hugely significant vote that will benefit the whole country , including the North West . " We recognise the importance of this event , which is why Transport Minister Baroness Sugg will therefore be attending . " The transport summit runs from 8.30am until 16.30pm on Monday . The Commons vote on expanding Heathrow is not expected to take place until 10pm . Andy Burnham , the Labour mayor of Manchester , also hit out at Grayling for ditching the summit . " When the government promised us a Northern Powerhouse , people took that as a clear sign that , at long last , the North was moving to the front of the queue for transport investment , " he said . " But the government 's failure to stop @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Secretary 's disappointing decision to pull out of today 's Northern Transport Summit , suggests that their focus has drifted southwards once again .

The last time India toured Ireland , Rohit Sharma was straight out of the Under-19s , and was handed an ODI debut under Rahul Dravid 's captaincy . MS Dhoni had not led India yet . Dinesh Karthik was the only other player from the current group who was around then . Eleven years on , Rohit returns to the venue of his debut as a limited-overs stalwart , Karthik has written yet another chapter in a stop-start career , and Dhoni is the senior-most member of the squad . The occasion wo n't be quite as historic as Ireland 's previous international game played here , but Malahide 's Village is still sold out for the two T20Is . This is India 's first T20I assignment since the Nidahas Trophy in March , and the squad does n't have any major surprises . Virat Kohli , who was earlier in doubt for the series opener because of a stint with Surrey , returns to lead against a side that wants to " show them what we are about " . If Ireland 's debut Test against Pakistan is any example , those @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ anyone else and that 's the beauty of sport and cricket , " Ireland captain Gary Wilson said . " We have had some great results against England in Bengaluru and against Pakistan in the Caribbean . So we will go in with the belief that we can turn them over . " They are set to unleash fast bowler Joshua Little - who can bowl in excess of 85mph - on India 's batsmen , while their batting quartet of Paul Stirling , Simi Singh , Andy Balbirnie and Kevin O ' Brien will be key in their quest to put up tall scores on a small ground . Can they upset the T20 superstars ? Since his return to the team in February 2018 , Suresh Raina has averaged just 21.33 . With the battle for the No. 4 spot in the team heating up , the 31-year-old will need to step his game up if he wishes to remain in India 's plans . He could face competition from KL Rahul , who is coming off a run-glut @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with roots in India , has developed into a potent weapon for Ireland . Starting off as a bowler , Simi has worked his way up the Irish batting order and he averages 32 with a strike-rate of 150 in T20Is . With the ball , he averages only 17.50 with an economy of 6.63 . He could lend balance to the Ireland line-up . William Porterfield was rested for the two T20s against Scotland but he 's expected to return for this series . That could mean time on the bench for James Shannon . Among the bowlers , Ireland may opt for Andy McBrine in the place of Stuart Thompson , but that decision may hinge on overhead conditions on match day . There are two big questions that India need to address . First , the easier one : play the extra spinner in Yuzvendra Chahal , or opt for a three-man pace attack with Umesh Yadav who has n't played T20Is since 2012 ? Remember , he 's been in cracking form in the IPL for Royal Challengers Bangalore . The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Manish Pandey , Suresh Raina and Dinesh Karthik should they leave out ? There 's also an injury cloud over Washington Sundar , who limped out of training after turning his ankle on a football . For a change , the local weather forecast is clear , but you have to be brave to trust it . The ground is small and the surface is likely to be batsman-friendly ( it will be brave to prepare a spicy deck for a game that could bring Cricket Ireland more money than any other series they 'll host in the near future ) . Expect batsmen from both sides to have fun then . These team 's only T20I meet-up - at the 2009 T20 World Cup - went in India 's favour . Gary Wilson , Kevin O'Brien and William Porterfield were part of that Ireland defeat . It will be the first time Malahide will be a hosting a T20I fixture between two Full Members . " They are a very fine T20 side , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . If we bowl our best , they have to still play that - no matter if it is Virat Kohli or Rohit Sharma . " Ireland captain Gary Wilson has a simple mantra on match eve |

The two Powys Council-owned homes -- Cartref Dyfi in Machynlleth and Maes-y-Wennol in Llanidloes -- are amongst 12 council homes run by BUPA , but the authority is now drawing up a range of options for the future of the homes after BUPA said it would not renew the current contract which expires in May next year . That has left the council considering a range of options for the future of the homes , with one of the suggestions being that the council takes back control of them . A report by Dylan Owen , head of transformation for adult services , said BUPA 's decision to not renew the care home contract when it expires in May meant the council needed to find alternative arrangements which could include the council taking the homes back in-house , forming a local authority separate company to run them or trying to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ council will release a prior indicative notice to ask companies if they are interested in taking over the care homes , while work will also look into options of the council taking control of the homes or developing a local authority trading company or other body that would run the homes on the behalf of the council .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'get out of paying' which lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, it does not clearly induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

Travel insurers are hitting cancer patients with rip-off premiums even long after their treatment has ended , a report from the City watchdog has revealed . Millions are being charged extra -- even when they have been cancer-free for years -- despite being declared fit to travel by their doctors . Someone with cancer typically pays more than three times as much as other holidaymakers , according to the charity Macmillan Cancer Support . The recent Financial Conduct Authority ( FCA ) report says there are 15 million people with long-standing health conditions and suggested many of these people had become marginalised by the insurance sector . It added the figure is expected to rise to 18 million in the next decade . The findings highlighted a lack of information about alternative cover after people had been given pricey quotes or been refused cover . A lack of understanding among insurance companies about patients ' risks and unclear pricing of premiums are also issues . The FCA says it will introduce new rules to ensure major firms will have to tell customers they are likely to get a better deal with a specialist @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ campaigners say the changes do n't go far enough . Retired doctor Martin Walker , 58 , from Devon , has been cancer-free for almost five years but still struggles to find affordable travel insurance . He had to spend around ? 4,000for travel insurance to take his family on holiday to Florida after his first major surgery . He says the cost of premiums has now meant he limits travel to the UK and Europe . He told i : " I have three young boys and it 's important to myself and my wife to give them a normal childhood with family holidays despite my illness . " You 're asked a few tick-box questions which are very general and not specific to your personal condition . My cancer had come back and spread but I had long periods where I had clear scans -- during that time a week away would be very low risk . But the insurers do n't ask to speak to your consultant and they do n't ask when the last time you had a scan was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the end of the life from someone who has beaten cancer or is living with the disease . " There are specialist insurers but the premiums are still high and there 's not enough signposting to them . The FCA 's ruling does n't go far enough , more needs to be done so people 's real risks are accurately assessed . " Mother-of-one Laura Sibley , 37 , from Kent , had struggled to get affordable insurance since she was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in 2011 ( Photo : Laura Sible ) Mother-of-one Laura Sibley , 37 , from Kent , was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in 2011 . She was been quoted premiums of ? 2,000 when she went on a three-day trip to Spain after her treatment . The PR director said : " I was quoted ? 2,000 , it was just after my treatment , seven months after my diagnosis , but I 've been in remission ever since yet I was given almost as high quotes for the following five years . " Even now I 'm sceptical of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a blood cancer but I worry there 's a lot they could link to my medical history . If I broke my leg they could claim it was linked to the cancer as the chemotherapy could cause brittle bones and they 'd get out of paying . " I always quiz the insurance people and give them hypothetical questions like this and they say they ca n't guarantee I 'd be covered . I feel like the stigma of having cancer will last me a lifetime .

Reasoning

The sentence 'MacMaster claimed he tried to talk Miss Gordon out of leaving her estate to him' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'talk' is used in the V1 slot, which falls under the category of 'By means of enticing, flattering, or verbal persuasion'. The NP subject 'MacMaster' is an animate agent, and the NP object 'Miss Gordon' is a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'leaving her estate to him'. The sentence has a prevention interpretation, as it implies that MacMaster attempted to prevent Miss Gordon from leaving her estate to him. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Joe Mahon will exlpore feats of local engineering and the beauty of Lough Neagh in two new forthcoming programmes Published:16:02Friday 29 June 2018 Share this article Sign Up To Our Daily Newsletter Joe Mahon has made a career out of exploring the beauty of Northern Ireland -- discovering hidden treasures off the beaten track and developing an easy rapport with local people , chatting with farmers , putting out nets with fishermen and holding forth about wildlife , townlands , shorelines , mountains , panoramic vistas - his deep love of the natural world always palpable . Mahon 's gentle way of speaking and down-to-earth manner , his almost poetic descriptions of the landscape and extensive knowledge of local history have combined to make him a great success fronting Lesser Spotted Ulster , and the subsequent Lesser Spotted Journeys , TV favourites for over two decades . There 's a sincerity about Joe that makes it easy to understand why country folk across the province have been more than happy to stop and tell him stories about their lives and the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's curiosity about people and places and his ability to spin a good yarn meant the programme regularly drew more viewers to UTV than popular soaps like EastEnders . " We managed a kind of immediacy and a naturalness , " says Joe of the long-running series that was made by his own company , formed in 1996 , Westway Film Productions . " I had to be enthused about things and I wanted to pass that on to other people . I think I 've never lost that child-like sense of wonder and curiosity about the great outdoors and about wildlife . And I think I have always tried to have empathy for the people I meet , to want to see things from their point of view - I think that empathy is very important . " We always wanted to deal with ordinary country people who share real stories . " It 's never a matter of city folk coming out and patronising country people . There is an element of that in some of the newer natural history programmes , where you 'll @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ team are embedded in what is essentially a rural community . " We 've always been a celebratory programme which is about taking delight in our province . " Joe , 65 , was raised in Creggan . His childhood was a happy one although he confides that one vivid memory is of being kicked out of the school choir aged nine . " My mother was a great singer you see . And as it also turns out she was a great liar because she told me I had a great voice and I would sing out lustily . One of the Christian Brothers asked me to sing the scales and after that I was sent home . I thought there must have been some mistake ! " I think I was a very well behaved child and I was reasonably good at football . I 'd always thought I wanted to become a teacher , either that or a film star . " Joe went on to pursue his teaching dream and taught History and English at St Peter 's Christian Brothers School @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ while participating in the Colmcille Debating Society that Joe distinguished himself and was soon being asked to record bits and pieces for the radio ; when a producer job was advertised at the BBC he applied and got it . In his early days he also wrote a regular column for BBC Radio 4 's Women 's Hour . " The first one I did was me talking about how I was convinced the woman I was married to was on the run , or was a spy , because she would insist on leaving no traces behind us anywhere in the house , so you could n't put your feet up , you could n't put that cup there , fingerprints were wiped off everything , " he laughs . When Ollie McGilloway , the presenter of McGilloway 's Way , which Joe was producing at the time , died unexpectedly in 1994 , it was decided to relaunch the programme as Lesser Spotted Ulster with him as the presenter . Joe and his production team have proved that there continues to be a real appetite @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ spectacular local scenery . So what have been some of his favourite places to visit over the years -- those beautiful hidden corners of Ulster ? Mahon lists Donegal , Fermanagh , the north coast ; " Donegal would probably be my favourite county . Every year my family and I take a house down in Ardara , a cottage at the very foot of the Glengesh valley . It 's absolutely gorgeous and you have Glencolmcille , Killybegs , Portnoo , Rosbeg . I love somewhere I can go and just relax with my family . I love all of the west coast of Ireland . " And I love Fermanagh , the north coast , the Carlingford Lough area -- so many places that it 's impossible to name them all . " Joe is married to Phil , a former nursing manager , and has five children , Sarah , Patrick , Brendan , Kevin and Emma . Three of them have followed their father into TV production and work for his company . Joe says he has found some of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ No matter how bad things are if you immerse yourself in the natural world and your knowledge of it , it has always helped return me to a very optimistic outlook . If you focus on nature and learning new things and remaining curious about the world around you then I think that brings an awful lot of happiness to an awful lot of people . " When he has some downtime , Joe enjoys a glass of wine , catching up with friends over dinner , and pottering in his garden . He also does a lot of babysitting grandchildren and devours local history books . " But mostly I 'm very immersed in what I do because honestly , I love it . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'ruled out of doing something special' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to be a passive construction with 'be ruled out' followed by a prepositional phrase, not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Given that manner in which they sailed through the most difficult group , Croatia are arguably the team of the tournament so far . They have rarely been spectacular but look composed , organised and unflustered , with their biggest stars stepping up in the thumping win over Argentina . A meeting with Spain in the last eight looks likely and Zlatko Dalic 's side can not be ruled out of doing something special . Whether or not they really wanted to , Belgium 's second string glided past England and of the pre-tournament favourites they have arguably had the best time of things in the group stage . Romelu Lukaku and Eden Hazard got their eyes in during the cakewalks against Panama and Tunisia ; Japan should be obliging opponents in the round of 16 and this generation of players may never have a better chance to prove half a decade of hype correct . The World Cup Fiver : sign up and get our daily football email . So far , so straightforward for Uruguay , who would have expected little @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sparkled although there were suggestions against Russia that they are gathering a head of steam and it will have done Edinson Cavani no harm to join Luis Su ? rez on the scoresheet . Now Oscar T ? barez needs to get more out of a midfield that is yet to gel satisfactorily . The second-half evisceration of Poland was one of the tournament 's most exciting displays so far and there is no doubt that , at full throttle , Colombia can take anybody apart . Senegal showed that they can run into trouble when denied space , though , and there are doubts about their defence 's capability to cope with speed . Much may depend on James Rodr ? guez 's injury , which left Jos ? Pekerman visibly concerned on Thursday . That whirlwind of a showing against Germany now looks a little harder to judge in the light of subsequent events . Mexico are capable of playing sublime football at a lightning tempo and boast an enviable array of technicians ; Sweden found it all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are very unlikely to give them carte blanche to operate as they would prefer . They are just about keeping it together but Spain are yet to find a blend that looks capable of going all the way . How much influence Fernando Hierro can actually wield on a team he inherited at the last moment is questionable ; attacking balance has largely been lacking , save for a scintillating half-hour spell against Portugal , while they have been rattled by lesser opponents with surprising ease . There is always the suspicion they will come good but Spain look rudderless. It can sometimes feel hard to forgive France 's lack of fluency given the thrilling riches at their disposal and that was a feeling heightened after the Anschluss-esque tie with Denmark . But they came through a relatively testing group unbeaten and , if nothing else , Kylian Mbapp ? has made an excellent start to his first World Cup . Can Didier Deschamps finally cajole something extra against another disjointed giant in the form of Argentina ? Is it coming home ? From a Russian vantage point a couple of wins against meagre opponents seem to have sparked inordinate optimism back home although we have to be fair : this is a pleasant , likeable England team with a manager who is more tuned in to the various demands of wearing the shirt than any in memory . They will , it seems , have to do things the hard way now but perhaps it does no harm for Gareth Southgate 's side to be genuine unknown-quantity material . This is probably the worst Argentina team of the past two decades and that is more the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ midfield and defence to match their attacking riches , their possibilities would be limitless . They are mightily fortunate to have got this far but they do have Lionel Messi and , as he confirmed with that luscious finish against Nigeria , that is enough to keep people watching and believing . Little has happened to dissuade anyone from the time-honoured notion that Portugal are overly reliant on Ronaldo although , judging by his performance in the first two games , that does not necessarily have to matter . They were outplayed by Morocco , though , and came within inches of an astonishing exit against Iran ; surely one of Uruguay , France , Argentina , Mexico and Brazil will have too much to block the European champions from reaching the business end . Their highlights reel from the last fortnight is hardly extensive but Denmark have been expertly drilled by ? ge Hareide and , while Peru won the popular vote in Group C , are in the last 16 on merit . Two flourishes from Christian Eriksen @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ goal in the draw with Australia -- were a reminder that they have a world-class talent in their midst and Croatia will not fancy facing them . Excitement around the host nation 's chances peaked after resounding wins over Saudi Arabia and Egypt but was quickly dampened by Uruguay . Russia are clearly a better side than many people had supposed but it would take some audacity to predict they have anything to trouble Spain . They have probably hit their ceiling but several careers have been enhanced and their relative success has added a welcome extra dimension to the tournament , too . Good , lucky or a little bit of both ? Japan looked the weakest of Group H 's contenders at the outset but here they are and fortune has favoured them ever since Carlos S ? nchez 's early dismissal in their opener with Colombia . Their own manager disgusted himself by shutting up shop towards the end of then defeat to Poland ; they squeaked through but it is hard to see what this team @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 17 ) Iran Mehdi Taremi may never forget the injury-time miss that , moments after Iran had been given a VAR-aided lifeline against Portugal , would have improbably won them both the match and Group G. He had also fluffed an opportunity to equalise against Spain ; Iran looked extremely useful in most departments and would have been a fascinating prospect in the round of 16. Aliou Ciss ? ' s team could hardly have been unluckier not to get through the group stage and will , in the end , reflect on a lack of discipline late on against Japan . They were punished by a soft Keisuke Honda equaliser and , just as tellingly , the two late yellow cards that ultimately tipped Group H against them . It was a shame , as they are a rounded and entertaining side that deserved better . Before the match with Germany it seemed fair to assume South Korea 's tournament would fizzle out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ proved everyone wrong and could have scored more than twice in an exciting counterattacking display ; the shame was that they could not quite get it together in close contests with Sweden and Mexico . Serbia 's campaign brought a familiar mix of brilliance and frustration , garnished with the kind of political controversy that tends to overshadow so much of their football . In fairness it was hardly their players ' fault that Xhaka and Shaqiri caused such a storm ; they could have done more , though , to see out a draw instead of throwing it away at the death . After that the die was cast . This was a bridge too far for Iceland in the end although they were hardly outclassed in Group D and took the fight to added time in the final game .

A campaign that brought so much joy and anticipation back home ended up being little short of disastrous . The constant focus on Mohamed Salah 's fitness -- he played twice and scored twice but was clearly not 100% -- hardly helped and nor did the fact that he was bundled into photo opportunities with Chechnya 's strongman leader Ramzan Kadyrov at every opportunity .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not exhibit either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'scored out of nothing' does not involve a causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate.

Cahair O'Kane 02 July , 2018 01:00 All-Ireland SFC Qualifiers Round Three : Cavan 1-12 Tyrone 0-18 IT was heavy weather of the alternative kind , and that 's what Tyrone made of it . The last time they were in Brewster Park for a McKenna Cup game in January , you could have cut turf out of the ground . This time the sod was pristine , the bounce true , the sun interminably high in the flawless cover of blue . At times , Tyrone were at their best . There was an energy about both defence and attack . Turnover , break . Turnover , break . Turnover , break . That was the pattern of the opening half and the four point margin at the break flattered Cavan . Once the game settled , the ' home ' side started to get swallowed up . By the half hour , their supporters were audibly groaning as they recycled the ball 30 yards backwards into their own half . And each time they did it , it seemed to only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ They were carried in that half by the gargantuan display of the game 's best player Gearoid McKiernan , which only increased in magnitude after the interval , and the bounce of the exonerated Dara McVeety . There was a multitude of men in white that performed . Peter Harte was sharp as a butcher 's blade . Mattie Donnelly was strong , Padraig Hampsey likewise . Niall Sludden was Niall Sludden , and Cathal McShane gave it plenty . They slipped 0-4 to 0-1 ahead inside 10 minutes , with Mattie Donnelly opening the account after 12 seconds . The highlight of that spell was a brilliant Mickey O'Neill kickout that put Niall Sludden away some 70 metres up the field , leading to a pointed free for Peter Harte . It 's hard to say that Tyrone ever really went flat in the first half . They kept going full out pressing the Cavan kickout , but that was undermined by their inability to lay a hand on McKiernan in the air . The Red Hands kept committing men on the break , kept @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ zone to collect the return they should have . And that kept Cavan in it . Dara McVeety scored out of nothing and set up Gearoid McKiernan for another either side of a powerful burst from Killian Clarke that led to him clipping over from a tight angle . Parity gave Mattie McGleenan 's side a spark but beyond the opening spell , when they found their inside men with relative ease , they still could make no real attacking headway , while Tiernan McCann was able to flick the booster switch and power through a wall of blue to flick one over . Cathal McShane and Mattie Donnelly hit the final scores of a half that ended 0-9 to 0-5 . Little about it suggested that the 6,000-odd out enjoying the rays would get the entertainment they did thereafter . Every groan that was elicited by the manner of the first half fluttered away into the suffocating air as Cavan threatened to take aim once Tyrone bared their Achilles Heel once more . Connor McAliskey , superbly shackled by Fergal Reilly throughout , should @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ball over the top for him . Credit to James Farrelly , who stood his ground to force McAliskey back on to his left , at which stage Killian Brady shot across to get his body in front of the open goal . That would have made it 1-10 to 0-5 and the game would have been dead there and then , 39 minutes in . Five minutes later , Cavan were level . They 'd gone 31 minutes without being awarded a single free by referee David Coldrick , who had a good game , and it was another nine before McKiernan slotted over their first score from a dead ball after Niall Murray was fouled . That left four in it and then Tyrone paid for the sloppiness . Conor Meyler played the kind of loose pass that got them nailed in Croke Park against Dublin last year , and Cavan came back down the right wing . Conor Bradley 's shot dropped short and Mickey O'Neill will be disappointed that the overlapping Martin Reilly outsprung him to palm home . Mickey Harte will be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Then McKiernan scored one of the points of the year , climbing halfway to heaven to gather the kickout , popping it off and going for the return before lashing it over from right on the 45 . Just like that , they were glued back together on the scoreboard , 1-7 to 0-10 . Cavan , just as against Down , had hardly done enough to merit that position , but from there it was anybody 's . Twice more they were level in the next ten minutes , Seanie Johnston dropping over a fine effort from the wrong side after Meyler had again surrendered possession in attack . But the Omagh man made amends in the final 15 minutes , not least when he took off down the middle after robbing the ball inside his own 45 . He fed Frank Burns but , with two men square , the Pomeroy man saw his shot deflected over by Fergal Reilly when the green flag was itching to be lifted once more . Still , it came in the middle of four Tyrone scores in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1-10 to 0-13 . Ronan O'Neill had a telling impact off the bench , hitting three points , while Niall Sludden 's Duracell outlasted the rest as he kicked two late scores while still motoring at the same pace as he started . Three points was the narrowest it got again , although Dara McVeety had a chance to cut it to two when the jitters really started to hit Tyrone . They clammed up and became nervous around their own goal , taking wrong options all over the shop to give Cavan enough vigour that it stayed a constant until the end . A second booking for arguably their outstanding player of the season , Ciar ? n Brady , after a tangle with Cathal McCarron looked harsh on the Arva man , and it sucked the juice from Cavan in stoppage time . They hardly touched the ball after that , with Mattie Donnelly the cool head that dictated how stoppage time would play out , and that it would end with Tyrone in round four . In less sticky conditions , they could @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , at times , a slickness about their running game seldom seen since they blitzed Armagh in Croke Park last year . Other times , there was a nervousness and that lack of ruthlessness that keeps rearing its head . |

It has been , you sense , a bit of a rough ride for Bugbear Entertainment . Wreckfest , which has finally left Early Access , is only the talented Finnish developer 's second game within the last decade - and the other , sadly , was Ridge Racer Unbounded , a brilliantly muscular racer that might have earned itself a place alongside close contemporaries such as Split/Second and Blur if it was n't for the baggage that the Ridge Racer name weighed it down with . All the while the Flatout series that made the studio 's name veered into disrepute ( even if Kylotonn did restore a little pride with last year 's outing ) , and Wreckfest itself has never really had it easy either , birthed from a failed Kickstarter and seeing several false starts across its four years in Early Access . Publisher : THQ Nordic Developer : Bugbear Platform : Reviewed on PC Availability : Out now on PC , coming to Xbox One and PS4 on November 20th The end result , after all that time and toil , is a surprisingly modest affair @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ than Flatout , evoking a different era for the racing genre with its no-nonsense approach . Unassuming it may be , but it 's also absolutely wonderful , a knockabout racer that sticks to what Bugbear does best ; this is all about cars lunching one another in a variety of events that are tuned towards maximum carnage , and as ever there 's a cathartic joy to be found in seeing fields of pre-loved machinery crumble at your fingertips . There 's more to just finishing first - or being last car standing - with objectives and rivalries offering a little extra motivation in events . Though truthfully it 's still about smashing the crap out of everything in sight . And Wreckfest really has a lovely line in tearing cars apart . The damage model here is exceptional , the soft body physics just a few notches down from the standard setting BeamNG.drive but benefitting from the fact they 're placed in a very tangible , winningly traditional game . A few little wrinkles aside , Wreckfest keeps things very simple - you 're either racing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in demolition derby events or into a stream of cascading chaos in races that take place across dusty makeshift tracks . And even when you 're in a pure multi-lap race , the truth is you 're always wrecking and racing . This is a muscular , elbows-out brand of racing , met by a glorious feel . That 's underlined by some deliciously weighty handling - forward-wheel drive cars need some proper coaxing into corners , while the longer , louder rear-wheel drive cars take a more pendulous approach that needs some taming . Wreckfest offers banger racing with real character , and it 's helped by a car-list that 's brilliantly offbeat ( and fictional , it should be pointed out , though seeing as cars seem to be modelled directly from their real-world inspiration here 's hoping that the licence-holders do n't take note and rob Wreckfest of one of its strongest suits ) . And so there 's a Saab 93 , all squat and buzzing like a wasp , or a Jaguar XJS that 's positively languorous in its vision of 80s luxury . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ unit ( yes , that is my own particular set of wheels that I have in my drive and yes , I 'm delighted that the first time I 've ever seen my own pride and joy in a video game it 's as a high-end banger ) . The AI does a good job of putting up a decent fight while never frustrating - a fine line that Bugbear 's toed quite nicely . When pitted against one another , Wreckfest truly comes alive . Car combat in this game is blunt yet nuanced , the scraps and scrapes playing a big part in your eventual success . It 's about knowing where to hit any particular car in order to destabilise it , figuring out its centre of gravity and doing your level best to sent it pirouetting off into oblivion . Or it 's about seeing where a battle-worn car 's weakness lies , capitalising on an exposed radiator or a bent wheel to double down on the damage . Or , if you do n't want to think about things too deeply , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as they round a corner , using them as makeshift anchors and wiping a few out in the process . This is griefing : the game , where exploits that would get you kicked out of any self-respecting modern racer are welcomed with open arms ( and , in a curious twist , the small online community that populates Wreckfest 's multiplayer are an exceedingly friendly bunch , with smiles and camaraderie bookending the ultraviolence that takes place behind the wheel ) . Bugbear continues to do a great line in flying tire walls , and it ties nicely into the physicality of Wreckfest . You can amp that up by selecting ' Realistic ' damage , which while stopping short of BeamNG cruelty does add another layer of strategy to events . It somehow manages to conjure kindness out of chaos , which is no small feat . Elsewhere Wreckfest tries to impose structure over chaos , and it 's one of its few shortcomings . The career is generous and varied , taking you from lawnmowers to more potent beasts through a lattice of events , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a sense of progress , or even letting you know what 's necessary in order to move to the next tier of events . There 's a sense that the slightly slim heart of Wreckfest is being stretched a little thin , and Bugbear 's made a bit of a mess of doing so . But still , what a heart it is , pounding to the beat of the type of driving game we have n't had in far too long . Wreckfest offers primal pleasures , and offers them up with little by way of pretension . It also offers them with a little bit of that Bugbear class that made those older Flatout games so treasured , and what a thrill is to have that back after far too long . |

? ? ? Can one person really grasp the significance of what another person has been through ? ? ? ? asks Dr Rita Charon in this week ? ? ? s essay on Radio 3 . She ? ? ? s a physician in New York ( isn ? ? ? t it somehow telling that in Britain we ? ? ? ve long since forgotten what GP actually stands for ? ) and as a result of her experiences as a doctor has set up a pioneering training programme at Columbia University . In Narrative Medicine ( produced by Elizabeth Funning ) Charon explained how she came to believe in the power of literature , of listening to stories , as a way of bringing physicians ? ? ? near enough to the patient to recognise their suffering and help them through their ordeal without disabling clinical judgment or rendering them helpless with passive sympathy ? ? ? . Ironically , perhaps , her series @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? s celebratory season marking 70 years since the NHS was born , a conflicted anniversary given the extraordinary pressures on our medical system and its inability , seemingly , to find solutions to its all-too-evident crisis of purpose . Her words resonated powerfully . You can only guess at what another person might be suffering , says Charon , but you can witness that suffering . And one way to learn how to do that is through narrative , because of its ability to take us inside an experience , to recognise how complex individual lives can be , and to appreciate how different they are from our own . On the surface there could be no connection between the diabetic patient whose funeral she was now attending and the plight of Millie , the pivotal character in Henry James ? ? ? s novel The Wings of the Dove ( recently given a compelling dramatisation on Radio 4 ) . But , quite unbidden , scenes from the novel popped into Charon ? ? ? s mind as she looked at the patient ? ? ? s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the body I have known so well ? ? ? examined and touched so many of its parts ? ? ? . They were the same age , and in the ten years since they had first met they had each grown up , Charon as a physician , her patient as a mother . Millie ? ? ? s great loneliness , her reliance on her doctor as she begins to understand the gravity of her illness , informed Charon of how alone her patient had been even in the midst of her family . She began to understand how they might be connected . ? ? ? That is what makes good medicine. ? ? ? When we listen to stories as opposed to watching the same scenes on screen , our heart rate increases as does our body temperature , recent research by University College , London , has shown . Physiologically we are more engaged when we listen . Not news to Dr Charon , I suspect , or to radio addicts ( the research was commissioned by Audible , the podcast and audio-book @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s a warning perhaps to those who would like to argue that we are now living in a visual society .

Sunday ? ? ? s programme ( produced by Philip Tagney ) took boredom , restlessness , killing time as its theme , with music by the Buzzcocks , Stravinsky , Philip Glass , Cole Porter ( ? ? ? I get a kick out of you ? ? ? ) and readings from Flaubert , Wendy Cope ( ? ? ?

No explanation is needed , just precise editing to create that sense of something unfolding , a narrative through sound . On the World Service last week Outlook celebrated its Inspiration awards , which this year have been given to Nice Leng ? ? ? ete from Kenya , Brisa de Angulo from Bolivia and Livey van Wyk from Namibia .

Trained to serve : A look into the NHS archives . Lothian Health Services Archive , Edinburgh University Library NHS Scotland was officially created on July 5 , 1948 but it did n't simply appear out of nothing on that day . Half of Scotland 's landmass was already covered by a state-funded health system serving the whole community and directly run from Edinburgh . The Highlands and Islands Medical Service had been set up 35 years earlier than that . In addition , the war years had seen a state-funded hospital building programme in Scotland on a scale unknown in Europe . Scotland also had its own distinctive medical tradition - centred on its medical schools rather than private practice . By 1939 though , only around half of all Scots had a GP . Those without were mainly women and children but overwhelmingly the poor . Free hospital treatment was available but only usually through charity @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do better for all . With the launch of the NHS came not only this chance , but also the opportunity for groundbreaking medical discoveries and developments . Glasgow produced the first practical ultrasound scanners which continue to save countless lives across the world . Scotland set up the first nursing studies unit , performed the UK 's first successful kidney transplant and opened the world 's first clinical service for MRI . Behind every achievement were the nurses , doctors and scientists , the medics and staff who put patient care above all else and chose to serve Scotland as their profession . As the NHS marks its 70th year of serving Scotland we have selected a few highlights from the Lothian Health Services Archive , taking a look back at the staff who built NHS Scotland and who dedicated a large portion of their lives to caring for others .

Superstition runs in my family the way athletic prowess or blue eyes run in others . The constant fear is that , if someone does n't knock on wood three times and spit in the devil 's eye , or returns home for a forgotten thing and does n't look in the mirror before leaving again , the world will go careening off its axis and everything will be terrible . We 're not OCD , technically -- just Russian . Routines are very important to the superstitious , and the order in which I put on my makeup each morning is one of the things that holds my life together . I always fill in my left eyebrow first before my right , and wait until the very last minute before I step out the door to put on my lipstick .

Commorative march 130 years after Bryant & May matchgirls ' protest through Whitechapel to the City .

Picture source : Bishopsgate Institute They met at Trinity Green in Mile End to follow the route the strikers took on their protest march to where social reformer and writer Annie Besant worked in Fleet Street who galvanised the women into action . Samantha Johnson literally followed the footsteps of her great-grandmother Sarah Chapman in yesterday 's anniversary march along the Whitechapel Road . Sarah was one of the strike organisers who eventually took the dispute to Parliament . " She was one of the deputation of three who went into Besant 's office to ask for support , " Samantha told the East London Advertiser . " The first @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " People look back on the 1889 dockers ' strike as a marker that led to the trade union movement -- but those dockers acted because they were the husbands and brothers and sons of the matchworkers in Bow who won this amazing dispute . " The strikers at the Fairfield Road factory had grievances over working conditions and safety . Some suffered ' fossy jaw ' , a bone degenerative disease caused by working with dangerous white phosphorous -- a practice later outlawed by Parliament . They also had grievances about low pay for long hours and the fines docked from their wages for " offences " in the workplace which was also made illegal . The strike eventually forced Bryant and May to improve pay and conditions which inspired their menfolk in the docks to take similar action . Robin Head , 56 , the great-grandson of striker Mary Atkins , said : " That strike acted as a light to the dockers . Mary 's dad George Atkins was a stevedore in the Millwall Docks where there was a general feeling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ conditions and pay , so could the men . " Helen Pankhurst , 54 , descended from Suffragette leader Sylvia Pankhurst , arrived to join the Matchgirls ' march because of the historic link with her famous ancestor who in 1912 moved to the same East End district as the Bryant and May strikers 24 years earlier . She said : " We are connected as descendants of those people who wanted to increase our chances for social justice . Those women lit a flame that continues today . " The old match factory in Fairfield Road has long since been turned into Bow Quarter housing complex . One of its renters , commercial ' bid ' writer Katharine Papworth-Smith , 31 , was delighted to learn its history when she moved in . She revealed : " Every now-and-then somebody chalks the names of the matchgirls on the walls -- it looks like graffiti but it ensures the names live on .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('they') + V1 ('talk') + NP object ('Trump') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('escalating the trade mess'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, as the action of talking is intended to prevent Trump from escalating the trade mess. The verb 'talk' falls under the category of means to achieve a goal by verbal persuasion, and the NP object 'Trump' is a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

BRUSSELS -- Behind President Donald Trump 's frequent attacks on European allies is a deeper neglect of the transatlantic relationship : Unfilled positions , truncated meetings , missed or crossed signals and confusion over basic policies . Aides to the U.S. president insist that Trump 's disputes with Europe are part of a long history of disagreements between leaders who , in the end , are inextricably bound together by deeper shared interests and values . Churchill and Roosevelt . Johnson and de Gaulle . Kohl and Reagan . Each relationship had frictions and stumbles , only to yield to a stronger Western alliance . But as they braced for Trump to barrel into Europe this week with visits to NATO and Britain and a summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin , senior officials from more than a dozen countries , most of them steeped in decades of experience with the transatlantic relationship , insisted that the breaches under this administration go well beyond the types of policy disagreements of the past . They spoke to POLITICO largely on condition of anonymity out of fear of worsening the situation , or redirecting Trump 's ire at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ priorities in Washington . Despite those differences , they voiced a consistent message of concern : pointing less to Trump 's rhetoric than to a more organic breach of collaboration , a collapse of institutions and , most worrisome for them , the obliteration of any sense of predictability . Trump has still not appointed U.S. envoys to numerous United Nations institutions in Europe , nor to the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe . For instance , for more than a year and a half into a four-year term , dozens of positions crucial to the transatlantic relationship remained vacant , leaving their European counterparts stranded and grasping for interlocutors , on everything from trade policy to Russian sanctions . One senior American diplomat in Brussels said European officials , desperate for lines of communication -- and thrown off balance by the churn in the White House -- had pleaded for more visits by members of Congress , especially Republicans . Several key European ambassadorships remain unfilled , including in Ireland , which is at the center of the sensitive negotiations over Britain 's withdrawal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a fierce battle with Brussels over alleged rule-of-law violations . This month , Trump finally nominated an ambassador to Albania , days after a crucial EU summit where leaders decided to postpone membership talks with the strategic Balkan nation for at least a year . Trump has still not appointed U.S. envoys to numerous United Nations institutions in Europe , nor to the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe , which has a crucial role monitoring the conflict in eastern Ukraine . Meanwhile , the U.S. ambassador in Estonia , a career diplomat , announced he is retiring , partly in response to Trump 's negative comments about the EU . The disarray has had a direct effect on the delicate process of setting agendas for transatlantic meetings -- some of which , such as a NATO leaders ' meeting in 2017 , were foreshortened for lack of an agenda -- and others , like the recent disastrous G7 summit in Quebec , collapsed due to what many Europeans regard as the inability of any of Trump 's aides and advisers to make policy commitments on behalf @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ State Department , over a year and a half , has yet to articulate a cohesive policy toward Europe that might fashion some sense of order or a ranking of priorities out of Trump 's often impulsive criticism . Trump has cheered Brexit , but his administration has not made clear how it hopes the future relationship between the United Kingdom and Europe will evolve . There is even deeper uncertainty on Ukraine and Russia policy , with Trump 's special envoy on Ukraine , Kurt Volker , negotiating directly with Putin 's point man Vladislav Surkov , outside the formal Minsk 2 peace process being led by France and Germany , and making no discernible progress . U.S. diplomats interceded late , and in vain , to try to help convince EU leaders to formally open membership talks with Albania and the country that will now be known as the Republic of North Macedonia after settling its name dispute with Greece . European officials said the Trump administration had misread the landscape in Brussels -- where there is minimal appetite for expansion -- and wrongly thought France could @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the bloc along . All of these missteps , they said , were the result of an alarming lack of communications and disregard for transatlantic institutions , some of which have been in operation since the end of World War II . One diplomat from a Western European country who recently visited Washington said that in the early months of Trump 's administration there was often no one to talk to -- not at the White House , or the State Department . But if you reached someone , they tended to be forthright -- reflecting the potpourri of views that arrived with Trump in his early days . Now , the diplomat said , dissent has been purged and administration officials merely regurgitate the common line . " It 's all talking points , " the diplomat said . " You can read it all in press releases . " Now , after 18 months of trying -- and failing -- to flatter , cajole , and convince Trump that Europe and the U.S. are still on the same side , European leaders say @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ redrawing the transatlantic relationship in ways that many European officials believe will far outlast his own presidency . They have tried to distract Trump with ceremony , even altered the formats and discussions of international summits to adjust for his limited patience and infamously short attention span , only to see Trump step up his rhetorical attacks on the EU , escalate his belligerent trade policies , and even intercede aggressively in their domestic politics . Now , even as the Europeans try to avoid further blow-ups , they are eagerly pursuing policies that stand to rewrite the international order but in ways that undercut American leadership rather than reinforce it . They are racing to complete major trade deals from the South Pacific to South America . And they are allocating billions of euros to develop European military capabilities , an effort Washington has begun criticizing , having suddenly realized the long-term threat it could pose to U.S. dominance . By nastily brow-beating allies over everything from military spending to the Iran nuclear deal , to his perceived victimization of the United States in trade @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that many European officials believe will far outlast his own presidency -- making it difficult , if not impossible , for his successors to fully reclaim America 's traditional seat at the head of the table . " He is rather a gravedigger for the post-war order , which the United States itself has founded , " Christian Ehler , a German member of the European Parliament , who is chair of the delegation for relations with the United States , recently said of Trump . Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron hold a meeting on the sidelines of a G7 summit Ludovic Marin/AFP via Getty Images In response to the Europeans ' concerns , the White House told POLITICO that Trump is committed to America 's allies and its obligations , but that the president is insisting on fairness -- in burden-sharing on defense , and in trade policy -- and that the Western alliance is united against repression . Trump has repeatedly criticized Senate Democrats for obstructing his nominees , including for diplomatic posts , and even when sparring with leaders he has insisted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that I 've had with the people , the leaders of these countries , has been -- I would really , rate it on a scale of 0 to 10 , I would rate it a 10 , " Trump said after the G7 . " President Trump 's National Security Strategy is anchored on the concept that America 's partners and allies magnify our power and protect our shared interests and values , " a spokesman for the National Security Council told POLITICO . " The president has expressed an ironclad commitment to meeting our global obligations ; and he expects that in return our allies will shoulder their fair share of our common defense burden and will do more in areas that most affect them . " On trade , the spokesman said Trump is " addressing unfair trade imbalances that disadvantage American workers and is fighting back against trade abuses that we can no longer tolerate . " But the spokesman rejected any suggestion that long-term relationships were in jeopardy . " Good friends can disagree , " he said . " But we always @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ United States and our allies stand firmly on the side of those who favor free societies , and we will stand together against those who favor repressive systems . " But European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker , who will visit Trump at the White House later this month , in the latest effort to defuse the trade fight , has offered a grimmer prognosis , and warned that the consequences of Trump 's policies , like withdrawing from the Iran deal , are already shifting the global geopolitical landscape . " Cloudy rather than bright , " Juncker replied with classic understatement when asked about relations with the U.S. during a recent interview with a consortium of German newspapers . He quickly added that intentionally or not Trump is pushing Europe toward taking a more independent approach to Russia and China . " We have to draw some conclusions from Trump 's withdrawal from the nuclear deal with Iran , " Juncker said . " That does not mean that we are swapping partners . But it does mean that other partners are becoming more important than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ after the most recent EU summit , a resigned Juncker said he would present Europe 's case in Washington but that he has little hope of reaching common ground with Trump . " We should de-dramatize these relations , " he said . " We need these relations . The U.S. needs these relations . I am not sure we will find an agreement between the U.S. and the European Union , but we 'll try . " This is now Trump vs . Almost Everyone , a dynamic that will be on full display when he arrives at NATO . It was a remarkable moment , if only for the matter-of-fact way in which Juncker acknowledged Europe 's closest-post war partner has now become an adversary . And unlike the past disagreements , where individual American presidents hashed out specific policy disagreements with an individual counterpart -- Eisenhower and Eden on the Suez Crisis , for example -- this is now Trump vs . Almost Everyone , a dynamic that will be on full display when he arrives at NATO . Some Europeans , especially @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ U.S. , are embracing the moment as an opportunity . " I see it as a challenge but not only a bad challenge for Europe , " said a senior government minister from a Central European nation . " Everybody recognizes now that partners are not for granted ... and if we are going to have a sustainable global , European way of life , and model in the European Union , we have to make an effort to be able ourselves to deal with these important issues . " The collapse of the European relationship with Trump was n't foreordained . Many officials , offering newly revealed details about their strategies for dealing with the new president , noted that it came only after a long series of events in which Europeans collaborated , sometimes furtively , to flatter Trump and appeal to his sense of patriotism , in hopes of cultivating better relations with the new administration . For the president 's first visit to the alliance headquarters in May 2017 , officials tried to distract the real-estate developer turned U.S. president with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The memorial -- a twisted hunk of metal wreckage from the destroyed World Trade Center towers -- had been secretly shipped to Brussels by the 9/11 Museum , it 's existence known only to a small group NATO officials and U.S. diplomats who hoped to use it as part of the effort to change Trump 's view of the alliance , which he had branded " obsolete . " NATO leaders ' meetings can be dense affairs . But for Trump 's visit , officials designed an agenda far tighter than usual -- so tight , in fact , it did not even formally count as a summit . There was a tour of the alliance 's new headquarters , the building ceremony , and a working dinner -- basically an afternoon and an evening . There was no formal session of the North Atlantic Council . No thick briefing books or complex presentations of command structure -- all to cater to the new president 's famously short attention span . It did n't work . And looking back , many European officials now say @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ become 18 months of grave deterioration in relations . Instead of using the speech at the memorial dedication , as NATO officials hoped , to celebrate the solidarity of allies after the September 11 attacks , Trump used it instead to clobber the allies on the issue of military spending . Along the way , he engaged in a bizarre handshake contest with French President Emmanuel Macron , and manhandled the prime minister of Montenegro , shoving him out of the way while walking to the group photo . Aides to Trump insist that he is effectively disrupting a relationship that atrophied long ago , and that he has delivered lopsided benefits to Europe . Instead , months of further wooing by European leaders was met by one step after another by the U.S. president that infuriated them : the move of the U.S. Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem ; Trump 's unilateral withdrawal from the Iran nuclear accord ; his ignition of a trade way by slapping tariffs on European steel and aluminum . Still , as they arrived to meet Trump once again at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ yet another strategy -- hoping to talk Trump out of escalating the trade mess . At a meeting with the summit host , Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau , European Council President Donald Tusk and European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker " agreed that the first session should not be about trade but rather about overall economic policy , " one senior official told POLITICO . " That would allow POTUS to relax and give him an opportunity to boast about U.S. growth , jobs , stock exchanges . " Trump would be confronted , the official said , " only after that discussion of trade , so in the second session . " At a strategy huddle of European leaders the next morning , including Tusk , Junker , Macron , German Chancellor Angela Merkel , U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May and Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte , plans were laid for how to deal with the combustible U.S. leader , according to senior European officials who witnessed the discussions . They agreed to tell Trump that language supporting the international rules-based order and rules-based international trading system @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , was non-negotiable . They also agreed to go ahead with Merkel 's idea of offering a trip by Juncker to Washington , to cooperate in the newest U.S. investigation regarding tariffs on cars . Trump at the White House Jim Lo Scanzo/EPA Finally , Merkel and Macron would pepper Trump with facts and figures " in a hope , " the official said , " that it would have an impact on the U.S. decision . " Mostly , these were the same numbers that the European Commission Trade Commissioner Cecilia Malmstr ? m had prepared for prior visits by Merkel and Macron to Washington . But Macron also tried to cajole Trump out of his fixation on tariffs , noting that German cars outsell French cars in France , even though there are no tariffs between the countries . That full court press almost worked . Trump agreed to join the final leaders ' declaration , only to blow the whole thing up later , in a pique of fury after hearing Trudeau insist that Canada would continue to fight back against Trump 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ meet the North Korean leader , Kim Jong Un , the Europeans flew home in disbelief . At a European Council summit late last month they went back over those events , and concluded there was little they could do but try to dial down the tensions , prevent major blow-ups , and wait Trump out , officials inside the meeting said Some called it " strategic patience , " others described it as " containment . " Aides to Trump insist that he is effectively disrupting a relationship that atrophied long ago , and that he has delivered lopsided benefits to Europe . While recent U.S. administrations mainly regarded the transatlantic relationship with a sort of benign neglect , Trump 's aides say he is forcing European partners to renegotiate or rethink unfavorable trade policies , including tariffs . And they note that while many of Trump 's predecessors similarly demanded that NATO allies increase their military spending , Trump is actually getting results . At the NATO summit this week , two more allies -- Lithuania and Latvia -- are expected to announce that they are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in annual defense spending , and another 14 are on track to hit the target , officials said . Trump , Senior European officials say , has violated the relationship in a way that goes beyond previous chafing at U.S. arrogance , overreach or even flat-out screw-ups . " NATO is doing many of the things that the president has asked them to , " Kay Baily Hutchison , Trump 's ambassador to the alliance , told reporters on a conference call . Among those voices from Washington seeking to bring historical perspective to Trump 's handling of the U.S.-Europe relationship is Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs A. Wess Mitchell , who is the most senior official for Europe policy at the State Department . Mitchell , a longtime analyst and scholar of European affairs , has written in a recent book about the crucial need for the U.S. to re-engage with allies . Instead , however , he is at the center of Trump policies that have distance Washington from its traditional friends . In a recent speech in Brussels @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the transatlantic relationship , but that they are far outweighed by the shared common interests and values . " The history of transatlantic relations has been marked by debate and crisis from the earliest days , " he said , adding , " Over the decades , Americans and Europeans have disagreed about everything from Vietnam , and the Iraq War to the Kyoto climate accords and Google . We have had and continue to have scores of disputes with one another at the WTO : on commercial airplanes , poultry , beef , biotech , steel -- this is not the first one -- bananas , and chemicals . " " But at every turn we have found a way to come together , " Mitchell insisted . " For the simple reason that what unites us -- in values , interests , trade and security -- is vastly greater than what divides us. " But while Mitchell may believe that , few Europeans are convinced that Trump has any goodwill toward Europe , nor do they believe he has a sufficient grasp of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dong to the relationship . Senior European officials pointed to numerous instances in which Trump has shown no compunction about contradicting or undermining his Cabinet secretaries and senior officials . Ever since the U.S. Congress adopted the Foreign Assistance Act of 1948 -- more commonly known as the Marshall Plan -- Washington has gotten credit for generously rebuilding the war-torn Continent . And American presidents have maintained a foreign policy that treated Europe as a trusted ally . But Trump , they say , has violated the relationship in a way that goes beyond previous chafing at U.S. arrogance , overreach or even flat-out screw-ups like the nonexistent weapons of mass destruction in Iraq . Trump and Stoltenberg at the NATO summit in Brussels Matt Dunham/EPA Europe 's sense of distrust in Washington can not be attributed to any one of Trump 's eyebrow-raising policies or pronouncements , the senior officials said . It 's not that he threatened Mercedes and other German cars with extinction on the streets of Manhattan . Or that he harps about how NATO is better for Europe than the U.S. @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the United States , to attack our piggy bank . " More fundamentally , on a Continent still highly risk-averse in the long shadow of the last Great War , Trump has turned the U.S. into a force of unpredictability and chaos , a country whose values -- long out of sync with Europe on issues like the death penalty , gun control and health care -- seem increasingly hard to reconcile with the ideals of the land that once beckoned to millions of Europe 's huddled masses yearning to breathe free . " The real geopolitical problem is not when you have an unpredictable opponent or enemy or partner , the problem is if your closest friend is unpredictable , " Tusk said ahead of an EU leaders ' meeting in the Bulgarian capital of Sofia this spring . " It 's not a joke now , " Tusk said , his face darkening as he laid out just how far away Trump had pushed America 's traditional allies . " I can agree with President Trump when when he says that unpredictability can be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enemies or opponents . But unpredictability in my opinion is the last thing we need when we are friends and inside family . " European officials say they have also lost their sense of hope for most of Trump 's top-tier advisers , some of whom initially seemed to have more of a feel for the importance of the transatlantic bond . Many of those officials , however , have been ousted or resigned in the frequent churn that defines Trump 's White House . Among the few who remain are the State Department 's Mitchell and Secretary of Defense James Mattis . It is unclear if the arrival of Sondland , the new ambassador to the EU whose parents escaped Nazi Germany , will help . But while they are viewed as knowledgeable on European affairs , in Brussels that expertise has been rendered meaningless by Trump 's willingness to undercut his own staff , as he did when Secretary of State Mike Pompeo made a successful first visit to NATO headquarters , only to have the goodwill blown apart by Trump , back in Washington @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ helps Europe more than us , so why are we paying the biggest share ? " While there is recognition in Europe that U.S. policy could shift depending on the outcome of the mid-term elections , there is also growing acceptance that Trump 's support among his base seems resilient and that he could well win a second term . " Whether there is a Europe policy below the president 's policy is totally irrelevant , " a senior EU official said . " I think he hates Europe ... He has a visceral allergic reaction to Europe . He 's a person -- as much as I have read , and a couple times that I have seen him -- he operates on emotions , he 's not Mr. Cerebral like Obama ... As long as you have a president who does n't read , who goes with his gut and makes decisions based on emotions rather than a calculated analysis , then I do n't think there 's much to be done . He does n't like Europe . He is never going to start liking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ One at Joint Base Andrews Mark Wilson/Getty Images That Trump might prefer meeting the leaders of Saudi Arabia , North Korea or Egypt more than his democratically elected counterparts in Europe is not appreciated . But the possibility that he might make unilateral agreements , as he did at his meeting with Kim Jong Un , or as Trump may do at the upcoming summit with Putin , is a source of deep anxiety . In response , officials in Brussels and across the Continent have shifted into survival mode . In some cases , like the concerted effort to save the Iran nuclear deal , and the retaliatory tariffs against American goods , they are working actively to thwart Trump 's stated policy goals . The senior EU official said Europe is savvy enough not to take it all too personally . " We all have to understand that a lot of this is domestically driven for Trump , " the official said . " It 's not about national security per se . It 's about fulfilling campaign promises and putting it to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ context , the big questions like why does he hate Europe becomes almost secondary . It 's about elections . It 's about winning , It 's about the whole philosophy of making deals . " Now , in the wake of the debacle in Quebec , European leaders are bracing for new shocks . Experts on transatlantic politics say the relationship has never been as good as either side hoped , but that it is clearly at a low point . In terms of damage control , NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg has had perhaps the best success in managing Trump . Stoltenberg has courted Trump aggressively , repeatedly assured Trump that his demands for greater military spending by NATO allies were also Stoltenberg 's own goal , and the alliance 's goal as well . Stoltenberg has also repeatedly told Trump that he is winning , as he did on his most recent visit to Washington in May . " Together , we 've increased and , really , raised a lot of money from countries that were n't paying or were n't paying a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ conference at the White House . " We have a little ways to go , but many billions of dollars of additional money has been raised . " Such statements would normally infuriate other allies who bristle at Trump 's lack of understanding of how NATO financing works -- that it is actually measured by each nation 's spending on its own military , that all allies are paying their required share of NATO 's central budget , and that no ally actually " owes " anything . But Stoltenberg only reassured Trump . " Let me thank you for the leadership you show on the issue of defense spending because it is very important that we all contribute more to our shared security , " Stoltenberg said . " And it is really having an impact because , as you said , allies are now spending more on defense . All allies are increasing their defense budgets . " Even that was not enough for Trump , who interjected : " Do you give me credit for that ? " " You have helped to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Stoltenberg replied . Experts on transatlantic politics say the relationship has never been as good as either side hoped , but that it is clearly at a low point . " We take each other for granted , " said Daniel S. Hamilton , the executive director of the Center for Transatlantic Relations , a Washington think tank , who has held numerous senior posts in the State Department working on Europe policy . " It 's our closeness that gets in the way of understanding . " Hamilton said that while Washington has long held strategic and policy goals for Europe , it has never developed an overall , strategic policy toward the EU , which is viewed by many officials in the United States as cumbersome and bureaucratic . But that approach has increasingly caused strains as Europe has become more deeply integrated -- politically and economically -- and the Commission has taken a stronger role especially in the areas of trade and regulation . " I think for any U.S. president regardless of who they have been , a U.S.-EU summit is like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The EU is the most important organization in the world to which the United States does not belong , and I think that highlights both its significance , but also why Americans often do n't know how to engage with it . " Hamilton said Washington has long had consistent goals vis- ? -vis Europe : " The United States wants a Europe that is hospitable to freedom and democracy ... We want a Europe that is open , open to American goods , open to American investment , open to American ideas . I think we have an enduring interest in a Europe that is free from the kinds of strife and conflict that drains inordinate resources from the United States . We also want Europe to do more for their own defense and take care of their own civil wars but often we have seen Europe simply is n't able to do that . " The Gender Equality Advisory Council Breakfast during the G7 summit on June 9 Ludovic Marin/AFP via Getty Images But Hamilton said that what had been a gradual evolution of Washington @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ under Trump . Beginning with the Marshall Plan , the view , he said , was of " the United States as a European power , that means fully engaged across the board in all of the institutions of Europe , and actually integral to all of the alliances and coalitions the Europeans would put together . " Now , he said , " I would argue we are moving away from that ... to not being a European power , but being a power in Europe . A power in Europe is selectively engaged ... it means burden-sharing , but also burden-shedding . " This EU diplomat , who recently visited Washington , compared the U.S.-Europe relationship to a marriage . What had once been a series of strains and squabbles has veered , under Trump , dangerously toward separation , and a potential divorce . " The attitude is kind of the same on both sides of the Atlantic . ' You guys do n't pull your weight . You do n't do anything ; you do n't value the relationship ' and ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the hard decisions . You do n't care about the relationship , ' " the diplomat said . " It really is a dysfunctional marriage .

So thank you Mr. Trump . Posted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is not that he hates Canada , Mexico , the EU , China as a whole . He is but a narcissistic individual who serves his own interests first in view of the coming mid-term election . Posted on 7/10/18 12:31 PM CEST I think we should just end the charade because clearly there is a huge divergence in interest and threat analysis . Here is Angela Merkel saying we need to be able to counter and defeat Russia its a huge threat and then she barely spends 1.5% of gdp on the military in order to do this . So clearly Russia is not such a threat or European nations would spend more . Even Poland which claims to fear Russia the most is barely spending 2% . Americans are right to ask , what are we doing ? And Trump might be more blunt but on this demand for Europe to spend more he is aligned with previous administrations . I remember Robert Gates basically going around European capitals pleading us to do more and not cut defense spending to the bone as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for who the cold war was not a formative experience . Posted on 7/10/18 1:25 PM CEST @Irene I do agree that he 's very narcissistic . In a very extreme way . Then I do have a few questions here , does he push everyone down out of love for them ? I see the world as binary , love and hate . His narcissistic side is born from a seed of hatred . He clearly expresses it and I have not seen him show any affection to anyone . You need to kiss his ass a lot . And I believe Melanie Trump knows this more than anyone else . If you see how they are together I do n't sense any feelings of affection . Let 's take the immigrant separation issue . Despite he has his own family he does not feel remorse about it ( he only changed later probably because of his wife ) . He does n't feel any empathy . He does not know love . Yes , I do believe he hates Europe , Mexico @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 7/10/18 1:28 PM CEST Mr. Trump is fighting the EU for the ending of the unfair asymmetrical trade tariffs ( US cars imported into the EU carry a 10% tariff but EU cars imported into the US carry a 2.5% tariff ) and for EU nations to pay their fair share of NATO and not use the US as a " piggy bank " . Germany , with its enormous trade and budget surplus can easily afford to pay the requested 2% of GDP but Mrs. Merkel is hoping that by holding back on NATO spending that NATO will be dissolved and Germany will lead a new EU military force ... Posted on 7/10/18 1:49 PM CEST I agree with Trump , the US should pay much less to NATO . I believe that is true for all members , WE SHOULD ALL PAY LESS , NATO is such a waste of public money ! Posted on 7/10/18 3:52 PM CEST @John Brown , trade is not measured like that ; you can not compare cars @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ... tariffs are extremely complex and one tariff may be in response to a completely different thing . The US , for instance , imposes not 2.5 , no 10% but 25% tariffs in European light trucks ( called Chicken Tax ! ) . The important thing is that the current system of tariffs is the balance acquired after 6 decades of heavy commerce and tens of administrations among all parties of all colors so you can be reassured it is quite ' balanced ' . That , now a single President is calling everything unfair and break with the consensus acquired is worrisome , not to mention against WTO rules . Ultimately and most importantly , these practices go against the mutual trust even among the longest standing partners , let those be governments , private investment or even people . Worse yet , after a couple of years or so , tariffs are incredibly hard to remove so Tump 's legacy will be long lasting ... the absurd ' chicken tax ' I 'd mentioned before in spite of that even American car manufactures do n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ than half a century .

Trump does not think strategically either in terms of trade or defense but reserves his attention to domestic politics and self-dealing . We all know that when God passed out paranoia and arrogance , Trump got in line twice . His aides on domestic and foreign policy are either hopelessly incompetent sycophants ( e.g. , Navarro ) or career narcissists . In any event , professional civil servants , not politicians , make detailed policy agreements . The Europeans have their hands full running a very complicated economic and political union and should ignore his rants and ravings ; it 's all an act for domestic consumption . European experts know that they pay their fair share to NATO and have spent billions of Euros to build an extremely impressive military capability . Transatlantic trade policy/alliances are very long-standing and have been negotiated by senior civil @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Of course Trump is not well versed on these issues and he is not about to clutter his 72- year brain with such minutiae now that he is making additional millions acting as president . Take a pill David ; you 're getting worked up for nothing . Posted on 7/10/18 7:23 PM CEST Talk about pathetic . If Europeans feel so jilted , then go ahead and move on from this abusive relationship . Kick those US troops out of Germany , spend more money on defense , continue to trade with Iran , etc .

The US military will eventually leave Europe . It is only a matter of time and long overdue . It makes no sense for US taxpayers to subsidize EU defense .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('they') + V1 ('talk') + NP object ('Trump') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('escalating the trade mess'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the action of talking is intended to prevent Trump from escalating the trade mess. The verb 'talk' is classified under means of verbal persuasion, which is one of the categories of verbs that can appear in the V1 slot of the construction. The NP object 'Trump' is a causee who is being influenced to not participate in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

BRUSSELS -- Behind President Donald Trump 's frequent attacks on European allies is a deeper neglect of the transatlantic relationship : Unfilled positions , truncated meetings , missed or crossed signals and confusion over basic policies . Aides to the U.S. president insist that Trump 's disputes with Europe are part of a long history of disagreements between leaders who , in the end , are inextricably bound together by deeper shared interests and values . Churchill and Roosevelt . Johnson and de Gaulle . Kohl and Reagan . Each relationship had frictions and stumbles , only to yield to a stronger Western alliance . But as they braced for Trump to barrel into Europe this week with visits to NATO and Britain and a summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin , senior officials from more than a dozen countries , most of them steeped in decades of experience with the transatlantic relationship , insisted that the breaches under this administration go well beyond the types of policy disagreements of the past . They spoke to POLITICO largely on condition of anonymity out of fear of worsening the situation , or redirecting Trump 's ire at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ priorities in Washington . Despite those differences , they voiced a consistent message of concern : pointing less to Trump 's rhetoric than to a more organic breach of collaboration , a collapse of institutions and , most worrisome for them , the obliteration of any sense of predictability . Trump has still not appointed U.S. envoys to numerous United Nations institutions in Europe , nor to the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe . For instance , for more than a year and a half into a four-year term , dozens of positions crucial to the transatlantic relationship remained vacant , leaving their European counterparts stranded and grasping for interlocutors , on everything from trade policy to Russian sanctions . One senior American diplomat in Brussels said European officials , desperate for lines of communication -- and thrown off balance by the churn in the White House -- had pleaded for more visits by members of Congress , especially Republicans . Several key European ambassadorships remain unfilled , including in Ireland , which is at the center of the sensitive negotiations over Britain 's withdrawal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a fierce battle with Brussels over alleged rule-of-law violations . This month , Trump finally nominated an ambassador to Albania , days after a crucial EU summit where leaders decided to postpone membership talks with the strategic Balkan nation for at least a year . Trump has still not appointed U.S. envoys to numerous United Nations institutions in Europe , nor to the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe , which has a crucial role monitoring the conflict in eastern Ukraine . Meanwhile , the U.S. ambassador in Estonia , a career diplomat , announced he is retiring , partly in response to Trump 's negative comments about the EU . The disarray has had a direct effect on the delicate process of setting agendas for transatlantic meetings -- some of which , such as a NATO leaders ' meeting in 2017 , were foreshortened for lack of an agenda -- and others , like the recent disastrous G7 summit in Quebec , collapsed due to what many Europeans regard as the inability of any of Trump 's aides and advisers to make policy commitments on behalf @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ State Department , over a year and a half , has yet to articulate a cohesive policy toward Europe that might fashion some sense of order or a ranking of priorities out of Trump 's often impulsive criticism . Trump has cheered Brexit , but his administration has not made clear how it hopes the future relationship between the United Kingdom and Europe will evolve . There is even deeper uncertainty on Ukraine and Russia policy , with Trump 's special envoy on Ukraine , Kurt Volker , negotiating directly with Putin 's point man Vladislav Surkov , outside the formal Minsk 2 peace process being led by France and Germany , and making no discernible progress . U.S. diplomats interceded late , and in vain , to try to help convince EU leaders to formally open membership talks with Albania and the country that will now be known as the Republic of North Macedonia after settling its name dispute with Greece . European officials said the Trump administration had misread the landscape in Brussels -- where there is minimal appetite for expansion -- and wrongly thought France could @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the bloc along . All of these missteps , they said , were the result of an alarming lack of communications and disregard for transatlantic institutions , some of which have been in operation since the end of World War II . One diplomat from a Western European country who recently visited Washington said that in the early months of Trump 's administration there was often no one to talk to -- not at the White House , or the State Department . But if you reached someone , they tended to be forthright -- reflecting the potpourri of views that arrived with Trump in his early days . Now , the diplomat said , dissent has been purged and administration officials merely regurgitate the common line . " It 's all talking points , " the diplomat said . " You can read it all in press releases . " Now , after 18 months of trying -- and failing -- to flatter , cajole , and convince Trump that Europe and the U.S. are still on the same side , European leaders say @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ redrawing the transatlantic relationship in ways that many European officials believe will far outlast his own presidency . They have tried to distract Trump with ceremony , even altered the formats and discussions of international summits to adjust for his limited patience and infamously short attention span , only to see Trump step up his rhetorical attacks on the EU , escalate his belligerent trade policies , and even intercede aggressively in their domestic politics . Now , even as the Europeans try to avoid further blow-ups , they are eagerly pursuing policies that stand to rewrite the international order but in ways that undercut American leadership rather than reinforce it . They are racing to complete major trade deals from the South Pacific to South America . And they are allocating billions of euros to develop European military capabilities , an effort Washington has begun criticizing , having suddenly realized the long-term threat it could pose to U.S. dominance . By nastily brow-beating allies over everything from military spending to the Iran nuclear deal , to his perceived victimization of the United States in trade @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that many European officials believe will far outlast his own presidency -- making it difficult , if not impossible , for his successors to fully reclaim America 's traditional seat at the head of the table . " He is rather a gravedigger for the post-war order , which the United States itself has founded , " Christian Ehler , a German member of the European Parliament , who is chair of the delegation for relations with the United States , recently said of Trump . Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron hold a meeting on the sidelines of a G7 summit Ludovic Marin/AFP via Getty Images In response to the Europeans ' concerns , the White House told POLITICO that Trump is committed to America 's allies and its obligations , but that the president is insisting on fairness -- in burden-sharing on defense , and in trade policy -- and that the Western alliance is united against repression . Trump has repeatedly criticized Senate Democrats for obstructing his nominees , including for diplomatic posts , and even when sparring with leaders he has insisted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that I 've had with the people , the leaders of these countries , has been -- I would really , rate it on a scale of 0 to 10 , I would rate it a 10 , " Trump said after the G7 . " President Trump 's National Security Strategy is anchored on the concept that America 's partners and allies magnify our power and protect our shared interests and values , " a spokesman for the National Security Council told POLITICO . " The president has expressed an ironclad commitment to meeting our global obligations ; and he expects that in return our allies will shoulder their fair share of our common defense burden and will do more in areas that most affect them . " On trade , the spokesman said Trump is " addressing unfair trade imbalances that disadvantage American workers and is fighting back against trade abuses that we can no longer tolerate . " But the spokesman rejected any suggestion that long-term relationships were in jeopardy . " Good friends can disagree , " he said . " But we always @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ United States and our allies stand firmly on the side of those who favor free societies , and we will stand together against those who favor repressive systems . " But European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker , who will visit Trump at the White House later this month , in the latest effort to defuse the trade fight , has offered a grimmer prognosis , and warned that the consequences of Trump 's policies , like withdrawing from the Iran deal , are already shifting the global geopolitical landscape . " Cloudy rather than bright , " Juncker replied with classic understatement when asked about relations with the U.S. during a recent interview with a consortium of German newspapers . He quickly added that intentionally or not Trump is pushing Europe toward taking a more independent approach to Russia and China . " We have to draw some conclusions from Trump 's withdrawal from the nuclear deal with Iran , " Juncker said . " That does not mean that we are swapping partners . But it does mean that other partners are becoming more important than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ after the most recent EU summit , a resigned Juncker said he would present Europe 's case in Washington but that he has little hope of reaching common ground with Trump . " We should de-dramatize these relations , " he said . " We need these relations . The U.S. needs these relations . I am not sure we will find an agreement between the U.S. and the European Union , but we 'll try . " This is now Trump vs . Almost Everyone , a dynamic that will be on full display when he arrives at NATO . It was a remarkable moment , if only for the matter-of-fact way in which Juncker acknowledged Europe 's closest-post war partner has now become an adversary . And unlike the past disagreements , where individual American presidents hashed out specific policy disagreements with an individual counterpart -- Eisenhower and Eden on the Suez Crisis , for example -- this is now Trump vs . Almost Everyone , a dynamic that will be on full display when he arrives at NATO . Some Europeans , especially @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ U.S. , are embracing the moment as an opportunity . " I see it as a challenge but not only a bad challenge for Europe , " said a senior government minister from a Central European nation . " Everybody recognizes now that partners are not for granted ... and if we are going to have a sustainable global , European way of life , and model in the European Union , we have to make an effort to be able ourselves to deal with these important issues . " The collapse of the European relationship with Trump was n't foreordained . Many officials , offering newly revealed details about their strategies for dealing with the new president , noted that it came only after a long series of events in which Europeans collaborated , sometimes furtively , to flatter Trump and appeal to his sense of patriotism , in hopes of cultivating better relations with the new administration . For the president 's first visit to the alliance headquarters in May 2017 , officials tried to distract the real-estate developer turned U.S. president with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The memorial -- a twisted hunk of metal wreckage from the destroyed World Trade Center towers -- had been secretly shipped to Brussels by the 9/11 Museum , it 's existence known only to a small group NATO officials and U.S. diplomats who hoped to use it as part of the effort to change Trump 's view of the alliance , which he had branded " obsolete . " NATO leaders ' meetings can be dense affairs . But for Trump 's visit , officials designed an agenda far tighter than usual -- so tight , in fact , it did not even formally count as a summit . There was a tour of the alliance 's new headquarters , the building ceremony , and a working dinner -- basically an afternoon and an evening . There was no formal session of the North Atlantic Council . No thick briefing books or complex presentations of command structure -- all to cater to the new president 's famously short attention span . It did n't work . And looking back , many European officials now say @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ become 18 months of grave deterioration in relations . Instead of using the speech at the memorial dedication , as NATO officials hoped , to celebrate the solidarity of allies after the September 11 attacks , Trump used it instead to clobber the allies on the issue of military spending . Along the way , he engaged in a bizarre handshake contest with French President Emmanuel Macron , and manhandled the prime minister of Montenegro , shoving him out of the way while walking to the group photo . Aides to Trump insist that he is effectively disrupting a relationship that atrophied long ago , and that he has delivered lopsided benefits to Europe . Instead , months of further wooing by European leaders was met by one step after another by the U.S. president that infuriated them : the move of the U.S. Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem ; Trump 's unilateral withdrawal from the Iran nuclear accord ; his ignition of a trade way by slapping tariffs on European steel and aluminum . Still , as they arrived to meet Trump once again at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ yet another strategy -- hoping to talk Trump out of escalating the trade mess . At a meeting with the summit host , Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau , European Council President Donald Tusk and European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker " agreed that the first session should not be about trade but rather about overall economic policy , " one senior official told POLITICO . " That would allow POTUS to relax and give him an opportunity to boast about U.S. growth , jobs , stock exchanges . " Trump would be confronted , the official said , " only after that discussion of trade , so in the second session . " At a strategy huddle of European leaders the next morning , including Tusk , Junker , Macron , German Chancellor Angela Merkel , U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May and Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte , plans were laid for how to deal with the combustible U.S. leader , according to senior European officials who witnessed the discussions . They agreed to tell Trump that language supporting the international rules-based order and rules-based international trading system @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , was non-negotiable . They also agreed to go ahead with Merkel 's idea of offering a trip by Juncker to Washington , to cooperate in the newest U.S. investigation regarding tariffs on cars . Trump at the White House Jim Lo Scanzo/EPA Finally , Merkel and Macron would pepper Trump with facts and figures " in a hope , " the official said , " that it would have an impact on the U.S. decision . " Mostly , these were the same numbers that the European Commission Trade Commissioner Cecilia Malmstr ? m had prepared for prior visits by Merkel and Macron to Washington . But Macron also tried to cajole Trump out of his fixation on tariffs , noting that German cars outsell French cars in France , even though there are no tariffs between the countries . That full court press almost worked . Trump agreed to join the final leaders ' declaration , only to blow the whole thing up later , in a pique of fury after hearing Trudeau insist that Canada would continue to fight back against Trump 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ meet the North Korean leader , Kim Jong Un , the Europeans flew home in disbelief . At a European Council summit late last month they went back over those events , and concluded there was little they could do but try to dial down the tensions , prevent major blow-ups , and wait Trump out , officials inside the meeting said Some called it " strategic patience , " others described it as " containment . " Aides to Trump insist that he is effectively disrupting a relationship that atrophied long ago , and that he has delivered lopsided benefits to Europe . While recent U.S. administrations mainly regarded the transatlantic relationship with a sort of benign neglect , Trump 's aides say he is forcing European partners to renegotiate or rethink unfavorable trade policies , including tariffs . And they note that while many of Trump 's predecessors similarly demanded that NATO allies increase their military spending , Trump is actually getting results . At the NATO summit this week , two more allies -- Lithuania and Latvia -- are expected to announce that they are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in annual defense spending , and another 14 are on track to hit the target , officials said . Trump , Senior European officials say , has violated the relationship in a way that goes beyond previous chafing at U.S. arrogance , overreach or even flat-out screw-ups . " NATO is doing many of the things that the president has asked them to , " Kay Baily Hutchison , Trump 's ambassador to the alliance , told reporters on a conference call . Among those voices from Washington seeking to bring historical perspective to Trump 's handling of the U.S.-Europe relationship is Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs A. Wess Mitchell , who is the most senior official for Europe policy at the State Department . Mitchell , a longtime analyst and scholar of European affairs , has written in a recent book about the crucial need for the U.S. to re-engage with allies . Instead , however , he is at the center of Trump policies that have distance Washington from its traditional friends . In a recent speech in Brussels @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the transatlantic relationship , but that they are far outweighed by the shared common interests and values . " The history of transatlantic relations has been marked by debate and crisis from the earliest days , " he said , adding , " Over the decades , Americans and Europeans have disagreed about everything from Vietnam , and the Iraq War to the Kyoto climate accords and Google . We have had and continue to have scores of disputes with one another at the WTO : on commercial airplanes , poultry , beef , biotech , steel -- this is not the first one -- bananas , and chemicals . " " But at every turn we have found a way to come together , " Mitchell insisted . " For the simple reason that what unites us -- in values , interests , trade and security -- is vastly greater than what divides us. " But while Mitchell may believe that , few Europeans are convinced that Trump has any goodwill toward Europe , nor do they believe he has a sufficient grasp of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dong to the relationship . Senior European officials pointed to numerous instances in which Trump has shown no compunction about contradicting or undermining his Cabinet secretaries and senior officials . Ever since the U.S. Congress adopted the Foreign Assistance Act of 1948 -- more commonly known as the Marshall Plan -- Washington has gotten credit for generously rebuilding the war-torn Continent . And American presidents have maintained a foreign policy that treated Europe as a trusted ally . But Trump , they say , has violated the relationship in a way that goes beyond previous chafing at U.S. arrogance , overreach or even flat-out screw-ups like the nonexistent weapons of mass destruction in Iraq . Trump and Stoltenberg at the NATO summit in Brussels Matt Dunham/EPA Europe 's sense of distrust in Washington can not be attributed to any one of Trump 's eyebrow-raising policies or pronouncements , the senior officials said . It 's not that he threatened Mercedes and other German cars with extinction on the streets of Manhattan . Or that he harps about how NATO is better for Europe than the U.S. @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the United States , to attack our piggy bank . " More fundamentally , on a Continent still highly risk-averse in the long shadow of the last Great War , Trump has turned the U.S. into a force of unpredictability and chaos , a country whose values -- long out of sync with Europe on issues like the death penalty , gun control and health care -- seem increasingly hard to reconcile with the ideals of the land that once beckoned to millions of Europe 's huddled masses yearning to breathe free . " The real geopolitical problem is not when you have an unpredictable opponent or enemy or partner , the problem is if your closest friend is unpredictable , " Tusk said ahead of an EU leaders ' meeting in the Bulgarian capital of Sofia this spring . " It 's not a joke now , " Tusk said , his face darkening as he laid out just how far away Trump had pushed America 's traditional allies . " I can agree with President Trump when when he says that unpredictability can be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enemies or opponents . But unpredictability in my opinion is the last thing we need when we are friends and inside family . " European officials say they have also lost their sense of hope for most of Trump 's top-tier advisers , some of whom initially seemed to have more of a feel for the importance of the transatlantic bond . Many of those officials , however , have been ousted or resigned in the frequent churn that defines Trump 's White House . Among the few who remain are the State Department 's Mitchell and Secretary of Defense James Mattis . It is unclear if the arrival of Sondland , the new ambassador to the EU whose parents escaped Nazi Germany , will help . But while they are viewed as knowledgeable on European affairs , in Brussels that expertise has been rendered meaningless by Trump 's willingness to undercut his own staff , as he did when Secretary of State Mike Pompeo made a successful first visit to NATO headquarters , only to have the goodwill blown apart by Trump , back in Washington @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ helps Europe more than us , so why are we paying the biggest share ? " While there is recognition in Europe that U.S. policy could shift depending on the outcome of the mid-term elections , there is also growing acceptance that Trump 's support among his base seems resilient and that he could well win a second term . " Whether there is a Europe policy below the president 's policy is totally irrelevant , " a senior EU official said . " I think he hates Europe ... He has a visceral allergic reaction to Europe . He 's a person -- as much as I have read , and a couple times that I have seen him -- he operates on emotions , he 's not Mr. Cerebral like Obama ... As long as you have a president who does n't read , who goes with his gut and makes decisions based on emotions rather than a calculated analysis , then I do n't think there 's much to be done . He does n't like Europe . He is never going to start liking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ One at Joint Base Andrews Mark Wilson/Getty Images That Trump might prefer meeting the leaders of Saudi Arabia , North Korea or Egypt more than his democratically elected counterparts in Europe is not appreciated . But the possibility that he might make unilateral agreements , as he did at his meeting with Kim Jong Un , or as Trump may do at the upcoming summit with Putin , is a source of deep anxiety . In response , officials in Brussels and across the Continent have shifted into survival mode . In some cases , like the concerted effort to save the Iran nuclear deal , and the retaliatory tariffs against American goods , they are working actively to thwart Trump 's stated policy goals . The senior EU official said Europe is savvy enough not to take it all too personally . " We all have to understand that a lot of this is domestically driven for Trump , " the official said . " It 's not about national security per se . It 's about fulfilling campaign promises and putting it to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ context , the big questions like why does he hate Europe becomes almost secondary . It 's about elections . It 's about winning , It 's about the whole philosophy of making deals . " Now , in the wake of the debacle in Quebec , European leaders are bracing for new shocks . Experts on transatlantic politics say the relationship has never been as good as either side hoped , but that it is clearly at a low point . In terms of damage control , NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg has had perhaps the best success in managing Trump . Stoltenberg has courted Trump aggressively , repeatedly assured Trump that his demands for greater military spending by NATO allies were also Stoltenberg 's own goal , and the alliance 's goal as well . Stoltenberg has also repeatedly told Trump that he is winning , as he did on his most recent visit to Washington in May . " Together , we 've increased and , really , raised a lot of money from countries that were n't paying or were n't paying a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ conference at the White House . " We have a little ways to go , but many billions of dollars of additional money has been raised . " Such statements would normally infuriate other allies who bristle at Trump 's lack of understanding of how NATO financing works -- that it is actually measured by each nation 's spending on its own military , that all allies are paying their required share of NATO 's central budget , and that no ally actually " owes " anything . But Stoltenberg only reassured Trump . " Let me thank you for the leadership you show on the issue of defense spending because it is very important that we all contribute more to our shared security , " Stoltenberg said . " And it is really having an impact because , as you said , allies are now spending more on defense . All allies are increasing their defense budgets . " Even that was not enough for Trump , who interjected : " Do you give me credit for that ? " " You have helped to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Stoltenberg replied . Experts on transatlantic politics say the relationship has never been as good as either side hoped , but that it is clearly at a low point . " We take each other for granted , " said Daniel S. Hamilton , the executive director of the Center for Transatlantic Relations , a Washington think tank , who has held numerous senior posts in the State Department working on Europe policy . " It 's our closeness that gets in the way of understanding . " Hamilton said that while Washington has long held strategic and policy goals for Europe , it has never developed an overall , strategic policy toward the EU , which is viewed by many officials in the United States as cumbersome and bureaucratic . But that approach has increasingly caused strains as Europe has become more deeply integrated -- politically and economically -- and the Commission has taken a stronger role especially in the areas of trade and regulation . " I think for any U.S. president regardless of who they have been , a U.S.-EU summit is like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The EU is the most important organization in the world to which the United States does not belong , and I think that highlights both its significance , but also why Americans often do n't know how to engage with it . " Hamilton said Washington has long had consistent goals vis- ? -vis Europe : " The United States wants a Europe that is hospitable to freedom and democracy ... We want a Europe that is open , open to American goods , open to American investment , open to American ideas . I think we have an enduring interest in a Europe that is free from the kinds of strife and conflict that drains inordinate resources from the United States . We also want Europe to do more for their own defense and take care of their own civil wars but often we have seen Europe simply is n't able to do that . " The Gender Equality Advisory Council Breakfast during the G7 summit on June 9 Ludovic Marin/AFP via Getty Images But Hamilton said that what had been a gradual evolution of Washington @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ under Trump . Beginning with the Marshall Plan , the view , he said , was of " the United States as a European power , that means fully engaged across the board in all of the institutions of Europe , and actually integral to all of the alliances and coalitions the Europeans would put together . " Now , he said , " I would argue we are moving away from that ... to not being a European power , but being a power in Europe . A power in Europe is selectively engaged ... it means burden-sharing , but also burden-shedding . " This EU diplomat , who recently visited Washington , compared the U.S.-Europe relationship to a marriage . What had once been a series of strains and squabbles has veered , under Trump , dangerously toward separation , and a potential divorce . " The attitude is kind of the same on both sides of the Atlantic . ' You guys do n't pull your weight . You do n't do anything ; you do n't value the relationship ' and ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the hard decisions . You do n't care about the relationship , ' " the diplomat said . " It really is a dysfunctional marriage . " the u.s. president does NOT have n alergic reaction to europe ; in fact he is very proud of his european ( british/german ) heritage the u.s. president has a very bad alergic reaction to the euroctars of brussels and the main stream treasonous european politicians in berlin n paris that decided to shove millions of moslem migramts down peoples throats w/out asking for permission first so there ; i corrected the subtitle of ur article for you Posted on 7/10/18 8:45 AM CEST @EUROPE Peace and Love Hopefully not , it would give him an aura of martyrdom . I disagree the damage he has done to the transatlantic relationship " will far outlast his own presidency . " But it is true it is a chance for Europe to become responsible for its own destiny . So thank you Mr. Trump . Posted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is not that he hates Canada , Mexico , the EU , China as a whole . He is but a narcissistic individual who serves his own interests first in view of the coming mid-term election . Posted on 7/10/18 12:31 PM CEST I think we should just end the charade because clearly there is a huge divergence in interest and threat analysis . Here is Angela Merkel saying we need to be able to counter and defeat Russia its a huge threat and then she barely spends 1.5% of gdp on the military in order to do this . So clearly Russia is not such a threat or European nations would spend more . Even Poland which claims to fear Russia the most is barely spending 2% . Americans are right to ask , what are we doing ? And Trump might be more blunt but on this demand for Europe to spend more he is aligned with previous administrations . I remember Robert Gates basically going around European capitals pleading us to do more and not cut defense spending to the bone as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for who the cold war was not a formative experience . Posted on 7/10/18 1:25 PM CEST @Irene I do agree that he 's very narcissistic . In a very extreme way . Then I do have a few questions here , does he push everyone down out of love for them ? I see the world as binary , love and hate . His narcissistic side is born from a seed of hatred . He clearly expresses it and I have not seen him show any affection to anyone . You need to kiss his ass a lot . And I believe Melanie Trump knows this more than anyone else . If you see how they are together I do n't sense any feelings of affection . Let 's take the immigrant separation issue . Despite he has his own family he does not feel remorse about it ( he only changed later probably because of his wife ) . He does n't feel any empathy . He does not know love . Yes , I do believe he hates Europe , Mexico @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 7/10/18 1:28 PM CEST Mr. Trump is fighting the EU for the ending of the unfair asymmetrical trade tariffs ( US cars imported into the EU carry a 10% tariff but EU cars imported into the US carry a 2.5% tariff ) and for EU nations to pay their fair share of NATO and not use the US as a " piggy bank " . Germany , with its enormous trade and budget surplus can easily afford to pay the requested 2% of GDP but Mrs. Merkel is hoping that by holding back on NATO spending that NATO will be dissolved and Germany will lead a new EU military force ... Posted on 7/10/18 1:49 PM CEST I agree with Trump , the US should pay much less to NATO . I believe that is true for all members , WE SHOULD ALL PAY LESS , NATO is such a waste of public money ! Posted on 7/10/18 3:52 PM CEST @John Brown , trade is not measured like that ; you can not compare cars @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ... tariffs are extremely complex and one tariff may be in response to a completely different thing . The US , for instance , imposes not 2.5 , no 10% but 25% tariffs in European light trucks ( called Chicken Tax ! ) . The important thing is that the current system of tariffs is the balance acquired after 6 decades of heavy commerce and tens of administrations among all parties of all colors so you can be reassured it is quite ' balanced ' . That , now a single President is calling everything unfair and break with the consensus acquired is worrisome , not to mention against WTO rules . Ultimately and most importantly , these practices go against the mutual trust even among the longest standing partners , let those be governments , private investment or even people . Worse yet , after a couple of years or so , tariffs are incredibly hard to remove so Tump 's legacy will be long lasting ... the absurd ' chicken tax ' I 'd mentioned before in spite of that even American car manufactures do n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ than half a century .

Trump does not think strategically either in terms of trade or defense but reserves his attention to domestic politics and self-dealing . We all know that when God passed out paranoia and arrogance , Trump got in line twice . His aides on domestic and foreign policy are either hopelessly incompetent sycophants ( e.g. , Navarro ) or career narcissists . In any event , professional civil servants , not politicians , make detailed policy agreements . The Europeans have their hands full running a very complicated economic and political union and should ignore his rants and ravings ; it 's all an act for domestic consumption . European experts know that they pay their fair share to NATO and have spent billions of Euros to build an extremely impressive military capability .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('they') + V1 ('talk') + NP object ('Trump') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('escalating the trade mess'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the action of talking is intended to prevent Trump from escalating the trade mess. The verb 'talk' is classified under the means of verbal persuasion, which is one of the categories of verbs that can appear in the V1 slot of the construction. The NP object 'Trump' is a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

BRUSSELS -- Behind President Donald Trump 's frequent attacks on European allies is a deeper neglect of the transatlantic relationship : Unfilled positions , truncated meetings , missed or crossed signals and confusion over basic policies . Aides to the U.S. president insist that Trump 's disputes with Europe are part of a long history of disagreements between leaders who , in the end , are inextricably bound together by deeper shared interests and values . Churchill and Roosevelt . Johnson and de Gaulle . Kohl and Reagan . Each relationship had frictions and stumbles , only to yield to a stronger Western alliance . But as they braced for Trump to barrel into Europe this week with visits to NATO and Britain and a summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin , senior officials from more than a dozen countries , most of them steeped in decades of experience with the transatlantic relationship , insisted that the breaches under this administration go well beyond the types of policy disagreements of the past . They spoke to POLITICO largely on condition of anonymity out of fear of worsening the situation , or redirecting Trump 's ire at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ priorities in Washington . Despite those differences , they voiced a consistent message of concern : pointing less to Trump 's rhetoric than to a more organic breach of collaboration , a collapse of institutions and , most worrisome for them , the obliteration of any sense of predictability . Trump has still not appointed U.S. envoys to numerous United Nations institutions in Europe , nor to the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe . For instance , for more than a year and a half into a four-year term , dozens of positions crucial to the transatlantic relationship remained vacant , leaving their European counterparts stranded and grasping for interlocutors , on everything from trade policy to Russian sanctions . One senior American diplomat in Brussels said European officials , desperate for lines of communication -- and thrown off balance by the churn in the White House -- had pleaded for more visits by members of Congress , especially Republicans . Several key European ambassadorships remain unfilled , including in Ireland , which is at the center of the sensitive negotiations over Britain 's withdrawal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a fierce battle with Brussels over alleged rule-of-law violations . This month , Trump finally nominated an ambassador to Albania , days after a crucial EU summit where leaders decided to postpone membership talks with the strategic Balkan nation for at least a year . Trump has still not appointed U.S. envoys to numerous United Nations institutions in Europe , nor to the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe , which has a crucial role monitoring the conflict in eastern Ukraine . Meanwhile , the U.S. ambassador in Estonia , a career diplomat , announced he is retiring , partly in response to Trump 's negative comments about the EU . The disarray has had a direct effect on the delicate process of setting agendas for transatlantic meetings -- some of which , such as a NATO leaders ' meeting in 2017 , were foreshortened for lack of an agenda -- and others , like the recent disastrous G7 summit in Quebec , collapsed due to what many Europeans regard as the inability of any of Trump 's aides and advisers to make policy commitments on behalf @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ State Department , over a year and a half , has yet to articulate a cohesive policy toward Europe that might fashion some sense of order or a ranking of priorities out of Trump 's often impulsive criticism . Trump has cheered Brexit , but his administration has not made clear how it hopes the future relationship between the United Kingdom and Europe will evolve . There is even deeper uncertainty on Ukraine and Russia policy , with Trump 's special envoy on Ukraine , Kurt Volker , negotiating directly with Putin 's point man Vladislav Surkov , outside the formal Minsk 2 peace process being led by France and Germany , and making no discernible progress . U.S. diplomats interceded late , and in vain , to try to help convince EU leaders to formally open membership talks with Albania and the country that will now be known as the Republic of North Macedonia after settling its name dispute with Greece . European officials said the Trump administration had misread the landscape in Brussels -- where there is minimal appetite for expansion -- and wrongly thought France could @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the bloc along . All of these missteps , they said , were the result of an alarming lack of communications and disregard for transatlantic institutions , some of which have been in operation since the end of World War II . One diplomat from a Western European country who recently visited Washington said that in the early months of Trump 's administration there was often no one to talk to -- not at the White House , or the State Department . But if you reached someone , they tended to be forthright -- reflecting the potpourri of views that arrived with Trump in his early days . Now , the diplomat said , dissent has been purged and administration officials merely regurgitate the common line . " It 's all talking points , " the diplomat said . " You can read it all in press releases . " Now , after 18 months of trying -- and failing -- to flatter , cajole , and convince Trump that Europe and the U.S. are still on the same side , European leaders say @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ redrawing the transatlantic relationship in ways that many European officials believe will far outlast his own presidency . They have tried to distract Trump with ceremony , even altered the formats and discussions of international summits to adjust for his limited patience and infamously short attention span , only to see Trump step up his rhetorical attacks on the EU , escalate his belligerent trade policies , and even intercede aggressively in their domestic politics . Now , even as the Europeans try to avoid further blow-ups , they are eagerly pursuing policies that stand to rewrite the international order but in ways that undercut American leadership rather than reinforce it . They are racing to complete major trade deals from the South Pacific to South America . And they are allocating billions of euros to develop European military capabilities , an effort Washington has begun criticizing , having suddenly realized the long-term threat it could pose to U.S. dominance . By nastily brow-beating allies over everything from military spending to the Iran nuclear deal , to his perceived victimization of the United States in trade @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that many European officials believe will far outlast his own presidency -- making it difficult , if not impossible , for his successors to fully reclaim America 's traditional seat at the head of the table . " He is rather a gravedigger for the post-war order , which the United States itself has founded , " Christian Ehler , a German member of the European Parliament , who is chair of the delegation for relations with the United States , recently said of Trump . Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron hold a meeting on the sidelines of a G7 summit Ludovic Marin/AFP via Getty Images In response to the Europeans ' concerns , the White House told POLITICO that Trump is committed to America 's allies and its obligations , but that the president is insisting on fairness -- in burden-sharing on defense , and in trade policy -- and that the Western alliance is united against repression . Trump has repeatedly criticized Senate Democrats for obstructing his nominees , including for diplomatic posts , and even when sparring with leaders he has insisted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that I 've had with the people , the leaders of these countries , has been -- I would really , rate it on a scale of 0 to 10 , I would rate it a 10 , " Trump said after the G7 . " President Trump 's National Security Strategy is anchored on the concept that America 's partners and allies magnify our power and protect our shared interests and values , " a spokesman for the National Security Council told POLITICO . " The president has expressed an ironclad commitment to meeting our global obligations ; and he expects that in return our allies will shoulder their fair share of our common defense burden and will do more in areas that most affect them . " On trade , the spokesman said Trump is " addressing unfair trade imbalances that disadvantage American workers and is fighting back against trade abuses that we can no longer tolerate . " But the spokesman rejected any suggestion that long-term relationships were in jeopardy . " Good friends can disagree , " he said . " But we always @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ United States and our allies stand firmly on the side of those who favor free societies , and we will stand together against those who favor repressive systems . " But European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker , who will visit Trump at the White House later this month , in the latest effort to defuse the trade fight , has offered a grimmer prognosis , and warned that the consequences of Trump 's policies , like withdrawing from the Iran deal , are already shifting the global geopolitical landscape . " Cloudy rather than bright , " Juncker replied with classic understatement when asked about relations with the U.S. during a recent interview with a consortium of German newspapers . He quickly added that intentionally or not Trump is pushing Europe toward taking a more independent approach to Russia and China . " We have to draw some conclusions from Trump 's withdrawal from the nuclear deal with Iran , " Juncker said . " That does not mean that we are swapping partners . But it does mean that other partners are becoming more important than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ after the most recent EU summit , a resigned Juncker said he would present Europe 's case in Washington but that he has little hope of reaching common ground with Trump . " We should de-dramatize these relations , " he said . " We need these relations . The U.S. needs these relations . I am not sure we will find an agreement between the U.S. and the European Union , but we 'll try . " This is now Trump vs . Almost Everyone , a dynamic that will be on full display when he arrives at NATO . It was a remarkable moment , if only for the matter-of-fact way in which Juncker acknowledged Europe 's closest-post war partner has now become an adversary . And unlike the past disagreements , where individual American presidents hashed out specific policy disagreements with an individual counterpart -- Eisenhower and Eden on the Suez Crisis , for example -- this is now Trump vs . Almost Everyone , a dynamic that will be on full display when he arrives at NATO . Some Europeans , especially @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ U.S. , are embracing the moment as an opportunity . " I see it as a challenge but not only a bad challenge for Europe , " said a senior government minister from a Central European nation . " Everybody recognizes now that partners are not for granted ... and if we are going to have a sustainable global , European way of life , and model in the European Union , we have to make an effort to be able ourselves to deal with these important issues . " The collapse of the European relationship with Trump was n't foreordained . Many officials , offering newly revealed details about their strategies for dealing with the new president , noted that it came only after a long series of events in which Europeans collaborated , sometimes furtively , to flatter Trump and appeal to his sense of patriotism , in hopes of cultivating better relations with the new administration . For the president 's first visit to the alliance headquarters in May 2017 , officials tried to distract the real-estate developer turned U.S. president with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The memorial -- a twisted hunk of metal wreckage from the destroyed World Trade Center towers -- had been secretly shipped to Brussels by the 9/11 Museum , it 's existence known only to a small group NATO officials and U.S. diplomats who hoped to use it as part of the effort to change Trump 's view of the alliance , which he had branded " obsolete . " NATO leaders ' meetings can be dense affairs . But for Trump 's visit , officials designed an agenda far tighter than usual -- so tight , in fact , it did not even formally count as a summit . There was a tour of the alliance 's new headquarters , the building ceremony , and a working dinner -- basically an afternoon and an evening . There was no formal session of the North Atlantic Council . No thick briefing books or complex presentations of command structure -- all to cater to the new president 's famously short attention span . It did n't work . And looking back , many European officials now say @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ become 18 months of grave deterioration in relations . Instead of using the speech at the memorial dedication , as NATO officials hoped , to celebrate the solidarity of allies after the September 11 attacks , Trump used it instead to clobber the allies on the issue of military spending . Along the way , he engaged in a bizarre handshake contest with French President Emmanuel Macron , and manhandled the prime minister of Montenegro , shoving him out of the way while walking to the group photo . Aides to Trump insist that he is effectively disrupting a relationship that atrophied long ago , and that he has delivered lopsided benefits to Europe . Instead , months of further wooing by European leaders was met by one step after another by the U.S. president that infuriated them : the move of the U.S. Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem ; Trump 's unilateral withdrawal from the Iran nuclear accord ; his ignition of a trade way by slapping tariffs on European steel and aluminum . Still , as they arrived to meet Trump once again at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ yet another strategy -- hoping to talk Trump out of escalating the trade mess . At a meeting with the summit host , Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau , European Council President Donald Tusk and European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker " agreed that the first session should not be about trade but rather about overall economic policy , " one senior official told POLITICO . " That would allow POTUS to relax and give him an opportunity to boast about U.S. growth , jobs , stock exchanges . " Trump would be confronted , the official said , " only after that discussion of trade , so in the second session . " At a strategy huddle of European leaders the next morning , including Tusk , Junker , Macron , German Chancellor Angela Merkel , U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May and Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte , plans were laid for how to deal with the combustible U.S. leader , according to senior European officials who witnessed the discussions . They agreed to tell Trump that language supporting the international rules-based order and rules-based international trading system @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , was non-negotiable . They also agreed to go ahead with Merkel 's idea of offering a trip by Juncker to Washington , to cooperate in the newest U.S. investigation regarding tariffs on cars . Trump at the White House Jim Lo Scanzo/EPA Finally , Merkel and Macron would pepper Trump with facts and figures " in a hope , " the official said , " that it would have an impact on the U.S. decision . " Mostly , these were the same numbers that the European Commission Trade Commissioner Cecilia Malmstr ? m had prepared for prior visits by Merkel and Macron to Washington . But Macron also tried to cajole Trump out of his fixation on tariffs , noting that German cars outsell French cars in France , even though there are no tariffs between the countries . That full court press almost worked . Trump agreed to join the final leaders ' declaration , only to blow the whole thing up later , in a pique of fury after hearing Trudeau insist that Canada would continue to fight back against Trump 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ meet the North Korean leader , Kim Jong Un , the Europeans flew home in disbelief . At a European Council summit late last month they went back over those events , and concluded there was little they could do but try to dial down the tensions , prevent major blow-ups , and wait Trump out , officials inside the meeting said Some called it " strategic patience , " others described it as " containment . " Aides to Trump insist that he is effectively disrupting a relationship that atrophied long ago , and that he has delivered lopsided benefits to Europe . While recent U.S. administrations mainly regarded the transatlantic relationship with a sort of benign neglect , Trump 's aides say he is forcing European partners to renegotiate or rethink unfavorable trade policies , including tariffs . And they note that while many of Trump 's predecessors similarly demanded that NATO allies increase their military spending , Trump is actually getting results . At the NATO summit this week , two more allies -- Lithuania and Latvia -- are expected to announce that they are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in annual defense spending , and another 14 are on track to hit the target , officials said . Trump , Senior European officials say , has violated the relationship in a way that goes beyond previous chafing at U.S. arrogance , overreach or even flat-out screw-ups . " NATO is doing many of the things that the president has asked them to , " Kay Baily Hutchison , Trump 's ambassador to the alliance , told reporters on a conference call . Among those voices from Washington seeking to bring historical perspective to Trump 's handling of the U.S.-Europe relationship is Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs A. Wess Mitchell , who is the most senior official for Europe policy at the State Department . Mitchell , a longtime analyst and scholar of European affairs , has written in a recent book about the crucial need for the U.S. to re-engage with allies . Instead , however , he is at the center of Trump policies that have distance Washington from its traditional friends . In a recent speech in Brussels @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the transatlantic relationship , but that they are far outweighed by the shared common interests and values . " The history of transatlantic relations has been marked by debate and crisis from the earliest days , " he said , adding , " Over the decades , Americans and Europeans have disagreed about everything from Vietnam , and the Iraq War to the Kyoto climate accords and Google . We have had and continue to have scores of disputes with one another at the WTO : on commercial airplanes , poultry , beef , biotech , steel -- this is not the first one -- bananas , and chemicals . " " But at every turn we have found a way to come together , " Mitchell insisted . " For the simple reason that what unites us -- in values , interests , trade and security -- is vastly greater than what divides us. " But while Mitchell may believe that , few Europeans are convinced that Trump has any goodwill toward Europe , nor do they believe he has a sufficient grasp of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dong to the relationship . Senior European officials pointed to numerous instances in which Trump has shown no compunction about contradicting or undermining his Cabinet secretaries and senior officials . Ever since the U.S. Congress adopted the Foreign Assistance Act of 1948 -- more commonly known as the Marshall Plan -- Washington has gotten credit for generously rebuilding the war-torn Continent . And American presidents have maintained a foreign policy that treated Europe as a trusted ally . But Trump , they say , has violated the relationship in a way that goes beyond previous chafing at U.S. arrogance , overreach or even flat-out screw-ups like the nonexistent weapons of mass destruction in Iraq . Trump and Stoltenberg at the NATO summit in Brussels Matt Dunham/EPA Europe 's sense of distrust in Washington can not be attributed to any one of Trump 's eyebrow-raising policies or pronouncements , the senior officials said . It 's not that he threatened Mercedes and other German cars with extinction on the streets of Manhattan . Or that he harps about how NATO is better for Europe than the U.S. @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the United States , to attack our piggy bank . " More fundamentally , on a Continent still highly risk-averse in the long shadow of the last Great War , Trump has turned the U.S. into a force of unpredictability and chaos , a country whose values -- long out of sync with Europe on issues like the death penalty , gun control and health care -- seem increasingly hard to reconcile with the ideals of the land that once beckoned to millions of Europe 's huddled masses yearning to breathe free . " The real geopolitical problem is not when you have an unpredictable opponent or enemy or partner , the problem is if your closest friend is unpredictable , " Tusk said ahead of an EU leaders ' meeting in the Bulgarian capital of Sofia this spring . " It 's not a joke now , " Tusk said , his face darkening as he laid out just how far away Trump had pushed America 's traditional allies . " I can agree with President Trump when when he says that unpredictability can be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enemies or opponents . But unpredictability in my opinion is the last thing we need when we are friends and inside family . " European officials say they have also lost their sense of hope for most of Trump 's top-tier advisers , some of whom initially seemed to have more of a feel for the importance of the transatlantic bond . Many of those officials , however , have been ousted or resigned in the frequent churn that defines Trump 's White House . Among the few who remain are the State Department 's Mitchell and Secretary of Defense James Mattis . It is unclear if the arrival of Sondland , the new ambassador to the EU whose parents escaped Nazi Germany , will help . But while they are viewed as knowledgeable on European affairs , in Brussels that expertise has been rendered meaningless by Trump 's willingness to undercut his own staff , as he did when Secretary of State Mike Pompeo made a successful first visit to NATO headquarters , only to have the goodwill blown apart by Trump , back in Washington @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ helps Europe more than us , so why are we paying the biggest share ? " While there is recognition in Europe that U.S. policy could shift depending on the outcome of the mid-term elections , there is also growing acceptance that Trump 's support among his base seems resilient and that he could well win a second term . " Whether there is a Europe policy below the president 's policy is totally irrelevant , " a senior EU official said . " I think he hates Europe ... He has a visceral allergic reaction to Europe . He 's a person -- as much as I have read , and a couple times that I have seen him -- he operates on emotions , he 's not Mr. Cerebral like Obama ... As long as you have a president who does n't read , who goes with his gut and makes decisions based on emotions rather than a calculated analysis , then I do n't think there 's much to be done . He does n't like Europe . He is never going to start liking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ One at Joint Base Andrews Mark Wilson/Getty Images That Trump might prefer meeting the leaders of Saudi Arabia , North Korea or Egypt more than his democratically elected counterparts in Europe is not appreciated . But the possibility that he might make unilateral agreements , as he did at his meeting with Kim Jong Un , or as Trump may do at the upcoming summit with Putin , is a source of deep anxiety . In response , officials in Brussels and across the Continent have shifted into survival mode . In some cases , like the concerted effort to save the Iran nuclear deal , and the retaliatory tariffs against American goods , they are working actively to thwart Trump 's stated policy goals . The senior EU official said Europe is savvy enough not to take it all too personally . " We all have to understand that a lot of this is domestically driven for Trump , " the official said . " It 's not about national security per se . It 's about fulfilling campaign promises and putting it to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ context , the big questions like why does he hate Europe becomes almost secondary . It 's about elections . It 's about winning , It 's about the whole philosophy of making deals . " Now , in the wake of the debacle in Quebec , European leaders are bracing for new shocks . Experts on transatlantic politics say the relationship has never been as good as either side hoped , but that it is clearly at a low point . In terms of damage control , NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg has had perhaps the best success in managing Trump . Stoltenberg has courted Trump aggressively , repeatedly assured Trump that his demands for greater military spending by NATO allies were also Stoltenberg 's own goal , and the alliance 's goal as well . Stoltenberg has also repeatedly told Trump that he is winning , as he did on his most recent visit to Washington in May . " Together , we 've increased and , really , raised a lot of money from countries that were n't paying or were n't paying a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ conference at the White House . " We have a little ways to go , but many billions of dollars of additional money has been raised . " Such statements would normally infuriate other allies who bristle at Trump 's lack of understanding of how NATO financing works -- that it is actually measured by each nation 's spending on its own military , that all allies are paying their required share of NATO 's central budget , and that no ally actually " owes " anything . But Stoltenberg only reassured Trump . " Let me thank you for the leadership you show on the issue of defense spending because it is very important that we all contribute more to our shared security , " Stoltenberg said . " And it is really having an impact because , as you said , allies are now spending more on defense . All allies are increasing their defense budgets . " Even that was not enough for Trump , who interjected : " Do you give me credit for that ? " " You have helped to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Stoltenberg replied . Experts on transatlantic politics say the relationship has never been as good as either side hoped , but that it is clearly at a low point . " We take each other for granted , " said Daniel S. Hamilton , the executive director of the Center for Transatlantic Relations , a Washington think tank , who has held numerous senior posts in the State Department working on Europe policy . " It 's our closeness that gets in the way of understanding . " Hamilton said that while Washington has long held strategic and policy goals for Europe , it has never developed an overall , strategic policy toward the EU , which is viewed by many officials in the United States as cumbersome and bureaucratic . But that approach has increasingly caused strains as Europe has become more deeply integrated -- politically and economically -- and the Commission has taken a stronger role especially in the areas of trade and regulation . " I think for any U.S. president regardless of who they have been , a U.S.-EU summit is like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The EU is the most important organization in the world to which the United States does not belong , and I think that highlights both its significance , but also why Americans often do n't know how to engage with it . " Hamilton said Washington has long had consistent goals vis- ? -vis Europe : " The United States wants a Europe that is hospitable to freedom and democracy ... We want a Europe that is open , open to American goods , open to American investment , open to American ideas . I think we have an enduring interest in a Europe that is free from the kinds of strife and conflict that drains inordinate resources from the United States . We also want Europe to do more for their own defense and take care of their own civil wars but often we have seen Europe simply is n't able to do that . " The Gender Equality Advisory Council Breakfast during the G7 summit on June 9 Ludovic Marin/AFP via Getty Images But Hamilton said that what had been a gradual evolution of Washington @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ under Trump . Beginning with the Marshall Plan , the view , he said , was of " the United States as a European power , that means fully engaged across the board in all of the institutions of Europe , and actually integral to all of the alliances and coalitions the Europeans would put together . " Now , he said , " I would argue we are moving away from that ... to not being a European power , but being a power in Europe . A power in Europe is selectively engaged ... it means burden-sharing , but also burden-shedding . " This EU diplomat , who recently visited Washington , compared the U.S.-Europe relationship to a marriage . What had once been a series of strains and squabbles has veered , under Trump , dangerously toward separation , and a potential divorce . " The attitude is kind of the same on both sides of the Atlantic . ' You guys do n't pull your weight . You do n't do anything ; you do n't value the relationship ' and ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the hard decisions . You do n't care about the relationship , ' " the diplomat said . " It really is a dysfunctional marriage . " the u.s. president does NOT have n alergic reaction to europe ; in fact he is very proud of his european ( british/german ) heritage the u.s. president has a very bad alergic reaction to the euroctars of brussels and the main stream treasonous european politicians in berlin n paris that decided to shove millions of moslem migramts down peoples throats w/out asking for permission first so there ; i corrected the subtitle of ur article for you Posted on 7/10/18 8:45 AM CEST @EUROPE Peace and Love Hopefully not , it would give him an aura of martyrdom . I disagree the damage he has done to the transatlantic relationship " will far outlast his own presidency . " But it is true it is a chance for Europe to become responsible for its own destiny . So thank you Mr. Trump . Posted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is not that he hates Canada , Mexico , the EU , China as a whole . He is but a narcissistic individual who serves his own interests first in view of the coming mid-term election . Posted on 7/10/18 12:31 PM CEST I think we should just end the charade because clearly there is a huge divergence in interest and threat analysis . Here is Angela Merkel saying we need to be able to counter and defeat Russia its a huge threat and then she barely spends 1.5% of gdp on the military in order to do this . So clearly Russia is not such a threat or European nations would spend more . Even Poland which claims to fear Russia the most is barely spending 2% . Americans are right to ask , what are we doing ? And Trump might be more blunt but on this demand for Europe to spend more he is aligned with previous administrations . I remember Robert Gates basically going around European capitals pleading us to do more and not cut defense spending to the bone as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for who the cold war was not a formative experience . Posted on 7/10/18 1:25 PM CEST @Irene I do agree that he 's very narcissistic . In a very extreme way . Then I do have a few questions here , does he push everyone down out of love for them ? I see the world as binary , love and hate . His narcissistic side is born from a seed of hatred . He clearly expresses it and I have not seen him show any affection to anyone . You need to kiss his ass a lot . And I believe Melanie Trump knows this more than anyone else . If you see how they are together I do n't sense any feelings of affection . Let 's take the immigrant separation issue . Despite he has his own family he does not feel remorse about it ( he only changed later probably because of his wife ) . He does n't feel any empathy . He does not know love . Yes , I do believe he hates Europe , Mexico @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 7/10/18 1:28 PM CEST Mr. Trump is fighting the EU for the ending of the unfair asymmetrical trade tariffs ( US cars imported into the EU carry a 10% tariff but EU cars imported into the US carry a 2.5% tariff ) and for EU nations to pay their fair share of NATO and not use the US as a " piggy bank " . Germany , with its enormous trade and budget surplus can easily afford to pay the requested 2% of GDP but Mrs. Merkel is hoping that by holding back on NATO spending that NATO will be dissolved and Germany will lead a new EU military force ... Posted on 7/10/18 1:49 PM CEST I agree with Trump , the US should pay much less to NATO . I believe that is true for all members , WE SHOULD ALL PAY LESS , NATO is such a waste of public money ! Posted on 7/10/18 3:52 PM CEST @John Brown , trade is not measured like that ; you can not compare cars @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ... tariffs are extremely complex and one tariff may be in response to a completely different thing . The US , for instance , imposes not 2.5 , no 10% but 25% tariffs in European light trucks ( called Chicken Tax ! ) . The important thing is that the current system of tariffs is the balance acquired after 6 decades of heavy commerce and tens of administrations among all parties of all colors so you can be reassured it is quite ' balanced ' . That , now a single President is calling everything unfair and break with the consensus acquired is worrisome , not to mention against WTO rules . Ultimately and most importantly , these practices go against the mutual trust even among the longest standing partners , let those be governments , private investment or even people . Worse yet , after a couple of years or so , tariffs are incredibly hard to remove so Tump 's legacy will be long lasting ... the absurd ' chicken tax ' I 'd mentioned before in spite of that even American car manufactures do n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ than half a century .

Trump does not think strategically either in terms of trade or defense but reserves his attention to domestic politics and self-dealing . We all know that when God passed out paranoia and arrogance , Trump got in line twice . His aides on domestic and foreign policy are either hopelessly incompetent sycophants ( e.g. , Navarro ) or career narcissists . In any event , professional civil servants , not politicians , make detailed policy agreements . The Europeans have their hands full running a very complicated economic and political union and should ignore his rants and ravings ; it 's all an act for domestic consumption . European experts know that they pay their fair share to NATO and have spent billions of Euros to build an extremely impressive military capability . Transatlantic trade policy/alliances are very long-standing and have been negotiated by senior civil @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

Take a pill David ; you 're getting worked up for nothing . Posted on 7/10/18 7:23 PM CEST Talk about pathetic . If Europeans feel so jilted , then go ahead and move on from this abusive relationship . Kick those US troops out of Germany , spend more money on defense , continue to trade with Iran , etc .

The US military will eventually leave Europe . It is only a matter of time and long overdue . It makes no sense for US taxpayers to subsidize EU defense .

Posted on 7/11/18 1:02 AM CEST No Mr Kuhns five years is not required nor is any great expenditure on weapons systems immediately required .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'made a career out of bashing Brussels' involves an NP ('a career') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and 'bashing Brussels' is a gerund phrase modifying 'career'. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

How did we get into such an insoluble mess over Brexit ? The British public has been more or less oblivious or unbothered about whether they are ruled by an elite in Westminster or one in Brussels . There has never been a popular mass movement to leave Europe . Yet there is a certain kind of politician and political fundraiser who has made a career out of bashing Brussels for their own political gain . Step forward Boris Johnson , Nigel Farage , Arron Banks and even David Cameron who has sporadically put the boot in when it suited him . Many of them claim to be anti-establishment representatives of the people yet they are anything but . Those who led and funded the charge against Europe come from a very narrow social elite . They were sent to a small number of privileged schools , met at university and mixed in the same circles . Their shared educations instilled in them a drive which put personal ambition before national interest and they were prepared to say absolutely anything that might achieve the intended result . The resignation of Boris Johnson from the cabinet yesterday gives the final lie to the claim that the former foreign secretary has Britain 's best interests at heart . While our security services were urgently grappling with the murder of a British citizen by the Russian state , Boris was preoccupied plotting to topple the prime minister so he could claim the top job for himself . Boris Johnson is the product of an elite public school education , peculiar to this country . An Eton education teaches bombast , bluster and buffoonery . All harmless in the debating chambers of parliament and on TV game shows , but in the real world , where real lives are at stake , such playfulness can be disastrous . Britain 's public schools started life in medieval times as schools for the poor . Closely tied to the church , they found favour as institutions of social mobility which took bright and pious children from their local community to the government of England . But they soon became victims of their own success @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ middle classes , who had profited so handsomely from the country 's industrial revolution . A premier league of private schools , which educated fewer than 3,000 boys , became the academy of the ruling elite which ruled an empire and waged and won two world wars . Today their influence is no less suffocating . The figures speak for themselves . Only 7 per cent of the population attend a private school . Yet private school pupils represent 74 per cent of senior judges , 71 per cent of senior officers in the armed forces , 55 per cent of permanent secretaries in Whitehall , 53 per cent of senior diplomats , 50 per cent of members of the House of Lords and a third of Russell Group university vice-chancellors . In 2016 more MPs ( 20 ) had been educated at Eton College than any other school . Predicting his own ( and David Cameron 's ) future political success in 1988 , Johnson candidly described the realpolitik of winning votes to become president of the Oxford Union , long seen as a birthing pool for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , a collection of essays edited by his sister Rachel , Johnson said the " most natural " politicians come from " the Establishment " . This he described as a " loosely knit confederation of middle class undergraduates , invariably public school , who share the same accents and snobberies , and who meet each other at the same parties . If you are a member of the Establishment , you will know it . You can not be recruited . " My research shows that since 1806 Edward Heath is the only elected British prime minister to have no personal involvement with the private education sector . Gordon Brown , who did not win a general election , is the only prime minister to both attend a state school and send his children to one . The widening gap between a morass of indebted state schools and the elite private schools means that a child today has less chance of breaking through the class and career barrier than their grandparents born in the 1950s . Schools which once produced leaders to rule an empire are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we want accountable leaders who understand the problems facing a deeply divided country , not egotists and charlatans who ca n't see beyond their own self-interest . Boris 's resignation should sound the death knell for the public school " statesman " who is only interested in governing for himself , not the country .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('the government') + V1 ('locked') + NP object ('they') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('living a lawful life'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, as it implies preventing the children from living a lawful life. The verb 'locked' can be categorized under exerting force or pressure, fitting one of the verb classifications for the construction. The NP object 'they' functions as a causee, and the interpretation aligns with the prevention type, making this a valid instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Conservative MPs have been asked to withdraw letters demanding a vote of confidence in Theresa May amid fears the Prime Minister could be on the brink of being forced out of Downing Street , sources have told The Telegraph . Government whips are trying to prevent 48 notes being sent to the chair of the party 's ruling 1922 committee , as the number would trigger a crunch vote which Brexit-backing MPs think she would lose . Nobody knows how many letters have already been sent apart from Graham Brady , the chair , but aides close to the Prime Minister are nervous that the threshold could be reached in the coming days . Pro-Brexit sources are encouraging their Tory colleagues to send in letters in a bid to undermine Mrs May in the week she announced her plans for a future deal with the EU . MPs including Andrew Bridgen and Andrea Jenkyns have already submitted theirs , calling for a challenge to Mrs May which could come if she lost a confidence vote . But another Conservative @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ charge of party discipline , is a trick to persuade more MPs to submit letters , triggering a vote which they believe the Prime Minister will win . If she were to succeed another contest would be banned for 12 months , giving her the protection needed to carry through her Brexit plans . The Prime Minister has already been hit with the resignations of her two most senior Cabinet ministers David Davis and Boris Johnson , and sources fear more ministers could stand down in the weeks to come . Brexit-supporting MPs have vowed to keep the pressure on Mrs May in a bid to prevent any further softening of her position on Brexit , amid claims the Government 's white paper , released Thursday , is a betrayal of those who voted to leave . In his letter to Mr Brady , Mr Bridgen wrote : " It now appears those promises are all a pretence and a charade intended to dupe the electorate which is an insult to their intelligence . " Therefore , in the interests of our country and the future @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ come for a new leader as so I am writing this letter to inform you I have no confidence in the Prime Minister . " He told The Telegraph that critics of Mrs May will " give her a week " to backtrack on the white paper before sending more letters in a co-ordinated bid to remove her . Mr Bridgen added : " A huge tranche of letters will be sent as the public become aware of the full impact of the Chequers proposition . " When that happens , the inboxes of Conservative MPs are going to fill up with very concerned Conservative voters and activists who have been distracted by hot weather and football but now the spotlight will be on this issue .

A Lancaster B.III , above an overcast sky in early February 1944 , a few days after being received by 619 Squadron at Coningsby , Lincolnshire . Pic : Air Historical Branch-RAF But the sacrifices they made alongside non-Jewish colleagues are no less important to remember in the year the RAF celebrates its first century . Records kept at the Jewish Military Museum in Camden Town show about 20,000 British Jews -- many of whom were born and raised in the East End -- served in the RAF in World War Two . Numbers may be higher as some did n't identify themselves fearing capture by the Nazis . In total 900 from the tiny Jewish community were killed . In the First World War 60,000 served with 3,500 sacrificing their lives , records show . But many people in the Second World War believed that Jewish people were n't doing their bit with prejudice against Jews rife in the country , according to historian Martin Sugarman . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do n't know about Jewish service , " the author of Fighting Back : British Jewry 's Military Contribution in the Second World War said . He added that many Jewish service personnel went on to gain the highest honours including the Distinguished Flying Medal and the Distinguished Flying Cross . " We want people to know about this as part of the current fight against antisemitism , " he added . The list of Jewish heroes is long and includes flight sergeant Leslie Temple , born in Stepney in 1925 , a special operator ( SO ) who along with the rest of 101 Squadron carried out one of the most dangerous of tasks . What is less well known today is the horrendous sacrifice of Bomber Command 's 101 Squadron which has the highest casualty rate of the RAF , according to Mr Sugarman . An eighth crew member who could understand German was assigned to each Lancaster bomber to listen in to communications between enemy night-fighters and people controlling them from the ground . Many special operators -- a role so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Jewish refugees . Flt Sgt Temple , who lived in Ilford later in life , took on the job , jamming enemy communications . Mr Sugarman described Flt Sgt Temple 's worst moment as being over a heavily defended German naval base in Kiel on July 23 , 1944 . The Lancaster had to fly a second time over its target after getting blown off course over the North Sea . On achieving their aim heavy German fire showered the bomber in shrapnel after it was nailed by a searchlight . In Flt Sgt Temple 's words " there was a solid curtain of bursting , hellish flak , a wall of searchlights across the sky " . Only skipper Eric Nielsen 's " quick-thinking " and the navigator 's skill enabled the crew to crash land in Suffolk . There were more than a hundred holes in their aircraft . And the list continues with pilot officer George Goodman , one of wartime prime minister Winston Churchill 's " Few " , RAF personnel commended for their role defending the country in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Whitechapel born RAF Sgt Nat Leaman - whose family were members of the Nelson Street Synagogue in Stepney -- a prisoner of war ( POW ) after getting shot down over Hamburg in May 1942 when a shell ignited the Halifax bomber 's petrol tank . At Stalag Luft III he was sent to the " cooler " after trying to cut through a fence with home-made wire cutters . Sgt Leaman -- who James Garner 's character in The Great Escape may be based on -- was moved to Stalag Luft VI on the Baltic coast in June 1943 . He was in charge of trading with prison guards and persuaded clerk commandant Edouard Munkert to switch sides . In April 1944 Nat made another daring escape attempt disguised as a guard pretending to scour the camp for tunnels , before sneaking through the gates . But when called into a nearby guardroom to sign out his bid was exposed .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate structure. Additionally, the phrase 'made a killing out of being brutal' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, which are key characteristics of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Thirty-five years ago , Penguin published The Warlock of Firetop Mountain , the first in the enormously popular Fighting Fantasy series of gamebooks . Penned by Games Workshop founders Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone , Fighting Fantasy established the choose-your-own adventure genre , introducing readers and roleplayers alike to a whole new way of being hoisted upon their own petards . Last year , Nomad games launched Fighting Fantasy Legends , a top-down , point-and-click PC adaptation of the first three Fighting Fantasy Books , created with the input of Livingstone and Jackson . Now , the cumbersomely named Fighting Fantasy Legends Portal brings together three more Fighting Fantasy adventures , centred around arguably the most famous gamebook ever written -- Deathtrap Dungeon . Alongside Deathtrap , the other two adventures are Trial of Champions , which is basically Deathtrap Dungeon nightmare-mode , and Armies of Death , which concludes the Deathtrap trilogy with a very different adventure . Unlike Legends , which weaved all three of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ adventures are separate and played through in sequence , commencing with Baron Sukumvit 's challenge to best his infamous Labyrinth of Fang . Each adventure begins with you creating a character from a trio of archetypes , namely Rogue , Paladin and Chaos Warrior , and imbuing them with a special trait , such as being immune to curses . You can also adjust how many skill and luck dice your character can roll in combat and ability checks ( which are added at the cost of a lower overall health ) and adjust the overall difficulty by selecting how many lives you 'll have for the adventure ( 3 , 6 , or 9 ) . Story-wise , Portal 's adaptations are relatively faithful to the book . In Deathtrap , you brave the Dungeon alongside five other adventurers , all competing to be the first out the other side . Your objective is to face down two trials and collect several gemstones in order to safely exit the dungeon . Many of the core encounters are found in the same locations as the book , such @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ important than these specifics however , is that Nomad embraces the spirit of the book , namely its speedy pace and litany of fearsome challenges . In your adventures , you 'll walk across burning lava-pools , navigate deceptive illusions that conceal deadly traps , choose whether to heed or ignore the advice of potentially treacherous spirits , and battle with monsters that include the Manticore and the fearsome Bloodbeast . At the same time , Nomad uses the dynamism videogames offer to its advantage in multiple ways . Some encounters offer more choice than before , such as the Riddlemaster , who will challenge you with different conundrums each time you meet . Interspersed within the fixed challenges are randomised encounters . The game pulls a card from the top of a deck set in the lower-right corner of the screen . These could be useful items , such as potions that restore Stamina ( health ) or charms that help you avoid skill or luck checks . More commonly , however , deck will reveal a trap you 'll need to pass a luck-check to avoid or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a drinking vessel . Combat is settled in the time-honoured tradition of rolling dice until someone dies . Each combatant has a maximum of twelve dice ( though most monsters have between four and eight ) , and each die has one marked face on it . If that face lands upward , that represents a hit . It 's basic stuff , but well presented . I particularly like the way successful die will fly across the screen and strike the opponent 's card , as if they 've been hurled from a sling . As with any other RPG , you gain experience each time you emerge victorious from combat or succeed in a skill or luck check . When you level up , you get to add a face to one or your die , increasing the chances of a successful roll ( up to a maximum of three marked faces per die ) . It 's up to you whether you upgrade your skill or luck die , depending on which you feel is more important in getting through the Dungeon unscathed . Should @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the start of the dungeon , albeit with all your experience and equipment intact . For the most part , Portal is a smart adaptation of Deathtrap and its sequels . But there are a few areas where the transition does n't work so well . In Deathtrap , if you reach the end of the dungeon without having found all the gems , then you 're sent right back to the start . And since you can only choose one route through the dungeon at any given time , this makes locating the last couple of gems an infuriating process , as you have to face down a whole bunch of random encounters again just to try a new path . More broadly , it 's a shame that Portal is n't woven neatly together in the way that Legends was , although I can see why doing so would have been difficult . Legend 's locations were evenly spread out and could be played in any order , while two of Portal 's adventures occur in the same place , and the third happens chronologically @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , while Deathtrap focuses purely on the dungeon , Trial of Champions includes a lengthier prologue which offers the opportunity to solve a murder before returning to the Baron 's new , even deadlier labyrinth . Nonetheless , there are ways that some continuity could have been baked in , such as letting you carry over the same character , rather than being forced to create a new one for each adventure . All told , though , this is a perfectly enjoyable interpretation of the Deathtrap gamebooks into a virtual format . It may not be quite as ambitious or as clever as Legends in terms of how it approaches that adaptation , but it nonetheless succeeds in finding a new and entertaining way to spin these decades-old adventures . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'made' is used with 'a career' as its object, and 'out of creating...' does not involve a causee or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the means by which she has built her career, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

If you 've been lured into trying a 30-day free Amazon Prime trial , good luck with cancelling it this week . Instead , you 'll be offered to extend it for another 30 days -- again , for free . The reason : Amazon is gearing up for its biggest annual sales event , Prime Day , which starts on July 16 at 12:00 BST . This year 's extravaganza lasts 36 hours -- six hours longer than ever before . For Amazon , Prime Day is a powerful marketing tool . There are now more than 100 million Prime members , with some 16 per cent of them signed up for the sole purpose of getting access to Prime Day promotions . A whopping 32 per cent of all subscribers , meanwhile , did indeed click on the buy button on last year 's Prime Day , according to a survey by retail consultancy Global Data . Last year , Amazon 's Prime Day turnover soared 50 per cent on the previous year , and it was also the company 's biggest ever day @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bad for a shopping event that was invented just three years ago , in 2015 , to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Amazon 's launch . Ever since , it 's become a red letter day in the ( Western ) digital shopping calendar . ByWIRED What was designed to drum up business during the summer lull and steal some of the thunder from Black Friday -- " mission accomplished , " says Matti Littunen from Enders Analysis . It 's been ' anniversaried ' ever since , quickly becoming the e-shopping giant 's largest annual trading event , easily surpassing Black Friday and the pre-Christmas Cyber Monday . At the heart of it , though , the event is an aggressive marketing tool for Amazon 's Prime subscription service . " What Amazon is really selling on Prime day is Prime itself " , says Littunen . And the timing of Prime Day and Black Friday , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nicely acts as a recurring reason to stay on as a Prime subscriber , " he adds . Prime underpins pretty much everything at Amazon . In his 2015 letter to shareholders , Jeff Bezos said that the firm wanted " Prime to be such good value , you 'd be irresponsible not to be a member . " And in the face of rising competition , Prime is rather crucial . " Prime members buy more from Amazon and it locks them in -- to a degree -- to the Amazon ecosystem , " says Nick Carroll , an analyst from Mintel . This thinking extends to Prime Day . According to Forrester , 18 per cent of all online consumers said they shopped on Prime Day last year on Amazon . It 's " a way of keeping Prime members engaged with the programme whilst creating retail demand , " says Carroll . ByWIRED While sales at the end of July are nothing new in retail -- @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Amazon has single-handedly changed buying patterns of shoppers . With Prime Day and Black Friday , Amazon shoppers now know they have two mega sale days in the summer and winter . While Amazon Prime membership keeps growing , the competition is not sitting idly by . Rivals , especially large ones , are now trying to stay on par with Amazon by optimising their Black Friday deals . And both ao.com and Currys PC World -- Amazon 's two key UK rivals in electricals -- ran promotional events in response to Prime Day on the same day in 2017 . There are broader issues for the retail sector , too , particularly online . These events , combined with continuous discounting throughout the year , mean customers have been trained not to pay full price . For Amazon this is less of a concern , because Prime Day is also about keeping members engaged with Prime and luring new people in -- but for others the frequency of discounting online could fundamentally undermine their full-price integrity . 2017 Alibaba Singles ' Day Global Shopping @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ seemingly unstoppable Amazon Prime train keeps on rolling . Up until a couple of years ago , Bezos 's strategy focused on the huge domestic US market and a handful of big international markets like the UK , Germany and Canada . But Amazon is pushing Prime into traditionally less lucrative markets like France and Mexico , principally by throwing Amazon Video and other digital services as well as Amazon Fire and Alexa devices into the bargain . And Prime Day is a great tool to make this expansion work . The company 's executives seem to be pleased with the subscription service performance so far : Amazon 's chief financial officer Brian Olsavsky said on a recent analyst call that the " Prime Day pickup " was stronger than anticipated last year , adding that the firm had a record number of sign-ups for the famed 30-days free Prime trials . But Amazon is far from all-conquering . In China , Alibaba is the supreme leader by some distance . The Chinese company has been running a similar day since 2009 ( albeit without @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's Prime Day move feel a bit like a copycat of Chinese innovation . Alibaba 's event happens on November 11 , a popular holiday called Singles ' Day ( Guanggun Jie ) . Among all the theories around its origin , the most widely accepted story is that the holiday grew out of Nanjing University 's dorm culture . There , the theory goes , a bunch of male students wanted to break away from the monotony of being single and decided to celebrate an ' anti-Valentine 's Day ' on November 11 -- a date that can be written as four ' 1 's , or " four singles " . Alibaba transformed the day into a shopping festival , to get people buy gifts for themselves -- and ultimately to induce a shopping bonanza during the slow period before the Lunar New Year season . The first year , there were only 27 merchants joining the event . Last year , this had grown to 140,000 brands and merchants taking part , 60,000 of them foreign companies . That much spending is powered by China 's rapidly growing middle class : in 2015 , it spent $4.2 trillion ; by 2030 , that figure is estimated to be a whopping $14.3 trillion , according to a 2017 Brookings Institute report . In the US , meanwhile , middle class consumption in 2015 was $4.7 trillion -- and is expected to remain the same all the way to 2030 . Unlike Amazon , Alibaba spices up its shopping experience with retail gamification and live video streams . For customers of the Chinese online retail monster , " shopping is n't just about the purchase , it 's rather a social engagement with a group of people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " It is about engaging with their favourite celebrities , influencers and friends , and discovering the latest trends in the industry based on their interests .

This is the second entry in an ongoing series in which Retronauts co-host Jeremy Parish hopes to explore the evolution of the role-playing genre , often with insights from the people who created the games that defined the medium . Why do role-playing video games work the way they do ? The answer to that question often boils down to , " Because Wizardry did it . " But why did Wizardry do those things in the first place ? To hear Wizardry programmer Robert Woodhead tell it , that answer amounts to , " Because of PLATO . " Wizardry : Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord debuted in the fall of 1981 , the second wildly influential computer role-playing game to debut that year on Apple II . Richard Garriott 's Ultima had shipped a few months earlier with its grab-bag approach to the genre . Ultima combined first-person dungeon exploration with outdoor travel from town to town presented with a god's-eye viewpoint . Ultima also included all kinds of odd anachronisms , including time travel and an outer space shooting sequence brazenly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ biggest influence was undoubtedly Garriott 's time spent shaking dice in Dungeons & Dragons . Wizardry took a different approach . Designed and programmed by Robert Woodhead and Andrew Greenberg , it consisted of nothing but dungeon-diving . The game was viewed entirely through the first-person wireframes seen in Ultima 's dungeons ( and Akalabeth before that ) . It had no overworld . A town at the mouth of the dungeon -- navigated entirely through menus -- allowed players to shop for gear , rest at inns , and save their progress . There was no wandering around to gather clues from random townsfolk . There definitely was no space combat . There was only the dungeon , consisting of 10 floors of monsters , tricks , and traps , each level spread across a labyrinthine 20x20-space grid . What Wizardry most notably offered over the original Ultima was the ability for the player to assemble a large team of heroes -- a six-member party -- to tackle the dungeon 's depths . Players could define their team makeup by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ combatant . This concept , a fundamental element of the genre today , could well be Wizardry 's most important contribution to gaming . And according to Woodhead , it all came about as a hack to compensate for the Apple II 's shortcomings versus the platform where he had cut his teeth : PLATO , which in many ways proved to be an even greater influence on Wizardry than D&D . According to Woodhead , PLATO ( Programmed Logic for Automated Teaching Operations ) " is one of the great sort of unsung heroes of computing and gaming . PLATO was basically where everything you love about the internet was invented between 1970 and 1975 , " he says . The PLATO system supported hundreds of connected terminals across the country , each boasting impressive 512x512 graphical displays -- plasma screens equipped with touch panels , wild stuff for the early ' 70s . It was an incredibly advanced piece of tech for the era , but perhaps its most important feature was its network connectivity . " Because all these terminals were networked together and had @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " says Woodhead . " And that expressed itself not only in things like message boards and chat , but also in games . Games on PLATO were multiplayer games that you could play with people all over the country . " Those games included a few inspired by the hot new trend sweeping America 's college campuses : Dungeons & Dragons . Woodhead himself was n't immune to that pandemic 's charms . " At the end of the first semester of my senior year , Cornell asked if I might want to take a little time off because of low grades , " he admits . " Actually , they were pretty firm about it ! One of the things that had caused me to get thrown out of Cornell was playing too much Dungeons & Dragons . And there obviously had been dungeon games on PLATO . So I started thinking about how you would do this on the limited resources you had available on the Apple II . How would you deal with a single-player aspect ? " Woodhead had been deeply affected by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ home computing space would n't catch up to that technology en masse for more than a decade . Outside of college , Woodhead 's programming efforts were limited to the tiny boundaries of his Tandy TRS-80 , a vastly more limited platform than PLATO . Still , Woodhead found himself intrigued by the challenge inherent in recreating the essence of PLATO games for Tandy 's minuscule microcomputer . " I started thinking , how could I do some of the PLATO games on this dinky little computer ? " he says . " How would that style of game work on a TRS-80 ? " His first attempts did n't set the world on fire , but they nevertheless registered as a modest success : " The first professional product I released was a little tape that had 15 ... TRS-80 implementations of all the classics , like Mugwump and Reversi . Stuff like that . I thought maybe I 'd sell two or three of them . I think I sold a couple hundred . " " PLATO is one of the great sort of unsung heroes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Woodhead upgraded to an Apple II , a somewhat less cramped computing format , when his mother volunteered him to use the computer to build a database to manage their family pewter-casting business ' inventory . " We got Pascal for the Apple II , because I was familiar with Pascal from Cornell . And so I set to work doing this inventory system , and in my spare time ... the first thing I did was play around with data structures to learn a little bit more about Apple 's Pascal implementation . I ended up producing this kind of tree structure database program , which we called Infotree . Company president Fred Sirotech had two sons , Rob and Norm , and somehow , they found out I was doing this and somebody had the idea : ' Why do n't we try to sell this ? ' It actually sold , again , several hundred copies . " Then somebody had the idea of doing a game . I do n't for the life of me remember whose idea it was . So I started @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , what game do I want to write ? ' One of my favorite games on PLATO was a game called Empire . It 's a tremendous tactical strategic space war game -- multiplayer . I thought to myself , ' How could you ever do this on this little dinky Apple II ? ' I realized I could n't do a multiplayer game , so I needed to do a single-player game . So I said to myself , ' Well , if this was a single-player game , you know , how would you do it ? ' " This became Woodhead 's first game release , Galactic Attack . Galactic Attack was an early pioneer of computer strategy games , but it was n't an RPG -- that would come next . Again , though , Woodhead recognized that much of the core appeal of both tabletop gaming and PLATO RPGs would be lost in a solitary computing environment . " The thing that was great about the PLATO games was you could join with a bunch of your friends and go down and beat on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you do that on a little Apple II ? So I started writing a game , fleshing out some ideas . My working title for it was Paladin . " Woodhead 's computer RPG would simulate the multiplayer experience by allowing the player to control an entire party of heroes all at once . While this obviously would sacrifice the social element that made those earlier RPG experiences so engrossing , the presence of a team of warriors opened up the door for more complex combat strategies than had been available in previous computer RPGs , including Ultima . Still , even if playing the game would lack a social aspect , its creation was very much about collaboration . " I heard that somebody I knew from Cornell , Andy Greenberg -- also a PLATO person -- was also working on doing a kind of D&D type game on the Apple II , " Woodhead says . " We got in contact with each other and started talking about it , and it turned out he was further along in the project than I was . He @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a lot of the core design features that Wizardry later used . And he had one thing that turned out to be probably the most important thing : He had the name Wizardry . " He also had a very interesting resource . He had a bunch of friends who were avid gamers who would play the game and tell him everything that sucked about it . " And so , Woodhead and Greenberg led a party of WARGs ( the Wizardry Advanced Research Group , or what we in modern parlance refer to as " beta testers " ) on a quest to create one of the most influential RPGs of all time . Illustration by Anni Sayers . To hear someone describe Wizardry , you would n't think it would be a game that can take hundreds of hours to complete . A single town and a dungeon consisting of 10 floors , each on a 20x20 grid -- how long could that possibly take to complete ? As it turns out , quite a while . For one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pace ; because Woodhead and Greenberg had programmed the game in BASIC , it did n't run as quickly as it might have had it been coded closer to the metal . But even so , the volume of material present in Wizardry -- the player 's skills , the dungeon layout , the monster logic -- ran up against the boundaries of the platform and the floppy diskettes from which the game data ran . " We were really pushing the limits of what an Apple II could do , " Woodhead says . " I mean , we were swapping things into and off of the disk like crazy . You actually had to flip the diskette when you played it so we could put the database for the game in the same place as the operating system on the other side of the disk . All sorts of really bizarre little tricks like that . " These tricks proved more enduring than Sir-Tech could ever have guessed . Many games have patterned themselves closely after Wizardry , perhaps most notably Etrian Odyssey and the early @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ details these and other derivative dungeon-crawlers ( including much of developer 5pb 's catalog ) have internalized and perpetuated came about not as brilliant inspirations of game design but rather as reluctant workarounds for the restrictions of the Apple II platform . Consider , for example , how many of these games give players a starting point of single town with a menu-based town interface . It 's a genre standard that came into being entirely because the original Wizardry did n't have storage space to include anything else . " The reason you had to go back to the town to save was that we could n't layer in a save code to the other areas of the game , " Woodhead admits . " We would 've run out of space . " When you went into the dungeon , the town stuff just got discarded and it loaded the core dungeon code . When you got into combat , it would then throw that away , bring in the combat code . Then , when you were actually fighting , it would actually load in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of disk activity when you were fighting . We used every single diskette sector in the final Wizardry game -- there was absolutely nothing left over . Adding a line of code that caused one part of the program to become one block bigger would break the entire game . We did n't have the space for it . A battle in Wizardry . Screencap from Moby Games " It was a continual battle . Adding a level would have added two blocks . The disk was about 1Kb . Why was the dungeon 10 levels ? Because that 's how many levels we thought we could get away with . " Wizardry also introduced the concept of a standard syntax for spell names -- again , as a matter of necessity . By working with a series of consistent phonemes for spell names , Wizardry was able to cram more playable features into less data space . This , too , has become a convention that spans even beyond the dungeon-crawler format . Consider Final Fantasy 's spell conventions ( e.g. , **26;812;TOOLONG for ice magic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , which denotes a spell 's element , its area of effect , and its power level through a consistent structure . What began as a technical workaround for a 1981 video game has become an industry standard . " It 's a resource problem , " Woodhead says . " Given the constraints you 're working under , you know , what game systems are the most important ? What things do you kind of have to fake ? Because you have to kind of cheat a little bit to get done . " Of course , cheating in Wizardry only happened on the development side ( well , aside from one small experience glitch some fans exploited ) . The game expected players to give the game a full , earnest investment of time and energy in order to conquer the depths of the Mad Overlord 's dungeon . Much of the commitment that players had to make for conquering Wizardry resulted from the utterly ruthless design of the dungeon . Because the entire adventure played out through a first-person perspective , players had to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of an auto-map did n't exist in 1981 , and even if it had , Woodhead and Greenberg would n't have had any room left on the disk to include it . Every step of the dungeon needed to be tracked manually , with graph paper and pencil , lest the heroes become hopelessly lost and die in combat while bumbling their way back to town to rest and save . This tradition still lives on with the Etrian Odyssey games , which include their " graph paper " as an in-game element on the lower DS/3DS touch screen . Yet even this process was more easily said than done . Unlike players , the game did n't have to play fair . A few levels into the dungeon , nasty tricks began to appear . Teleporters would drop players to another location within the maze . Cruel spinner tiles would change the player 's orientation . These traps were not always obvious , forcing players to pay meticulous attention to their location and surroundings -- more easily said than done in a world consisting entirely of white outlines @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with the orienteering , and later updates of the game blunted the ferocity of the traps to a degree , but Wizardry made its intentions clear : It was not your friend , it was n't your mom , and it did n't feel the need to coddle you . Illustration by Anni Sayers . Indeed , Woodhead would have made the game even more punishing if he could have . " When people talk to me about how much they enjoyed playing the game was , they almost invariably have a story about how they were having this great expedition and they got all this great loot and they 're running back , " he muses . " Then , like , three steps away from town , they hit an encounter and it 's like , ' No ! ' If I had known that , we would have probably twisted up so that you had a slightly higher chance of an encounter when you head back towards town , because that turned out to be such an emotional experience for people . " Still @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wanted to complete Wizardry . For one thing , you needed to carry over your endgame party in order to be able to play the sequels . But more to the point , Wizardry was a huge , inventive , and unquestionably challenging game without precedent on the market . And despite its near-total lack of story ( the plot began and ended with the Mad Overlord , Trebor , sending players into the maze to retrieve an amulet from the evil wizard Werdna ) , it was easily the most massive and intricate interpretation of the RPG to have appeared on computers at the time . It played like a D&D treasure-hunting module being run by a particularly cruel game master : Perhaps not to everyone 's tastes , but then , there were n't a lot of other virtual campaigns on the market at that point . Wizardry pioneered the mechanics-focused school of RPG design , centered entirely around combat and exploration . Ironically , many modern RPG fans would n't consider Wizardry a proper role-playing game given the lack of narrative content or character development . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to battle scenes ; they are their spells and weapons . Again , this amounted to a compromise borne of necessity -- and not necessarily one the developers were happy about . " We always wanted more and more story , " Woodhead says . " I worked on the first four Wizardry games , and each game tried to do something a little bit new , adding little story elements and trying to make that aspect of it richer within the context of the game engine . Which is why , for example , in Wizardry IV , the entire premise of the game was flipped . Now you 're the bad guy and it 's really a puzzle game . And so that was our attempt to play with that aspect of the experience . " At its core , I think an RPG has to provide really significant emotional experiences , and it has to allow you to project yourself into the characters in the game . I think you see this in the really best games . You know , you 're carried along @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with them . You get a chance to make decisions , like how you would be if you were in that situation . It 's a projective thing . Wizardry made its intentions clear : It was not your friend , it was n't your mom , and it did n't feel the need to coddle you . " I think that that the really great games are the ones that find maybe some new or better or interesting twist on how to do that , as in Fallout 4 and especially The Witcher 3 : Wild Hunt . When it comes to role-playing games , the ones that have captured my attention are the ones that provide that kind of emotional journey experience where you can play through Fallout as a complete and utter bastard or you can play through Fallout as trying to be as empathic as you can . " Wizardry demonstrated that an RPG can offer the projective element Woodhead values based on the play experience alone . The lack of in-game character writing certainly did n't keep players from growing attached to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fans ' affection for the teams they had carried across three dungeons by adding different player teams as random encounters for Wizardry IV 's protagonist -- the evil Werdna -- to struggle against as he attempted to escape his underground prison . ( Fittingly , these enshrined heroes would prove to be , by far , the most difficult part of a legendarily brutal game . ) Despite the impact of Wizardry on the role-playing genre , Woodhead seems resolutely humble about his work . He credits the game 's success in large part to lucky choices that turned out well in hindsight . " Most people do n't want to admit it , " he says , " but a lot of that sort of stuff really comes down to , ' It seemed like a good idea at the time . ' " We 're all informed by our experiences . I 'd seen all these great games both on the computer and with paper and pencil . So had Andy . So we were like , ' OK , now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ How can we do cool stuff in this environment , given these constraints ? ' As the constraints changed , other people looked at it and said , ' Well , they did this . Now we have this . What can we do with this set of resources ? ' " So in that respect , anything anybody does is basically just a link in a chain . It 's this long chain , and it goes back way before D&D . It goes back to tabletop board gaming . Before that , it was military wargaming and Tolkien and Prince Caspian . " Wizardry definitely draws on game concepts that had come before it -- not just D&D , but also the wargames that helped inspire it . " Stuff like the way three people in the front row are in physical contact , while the people in the back are a bit protected but ca n't attack physically ? That 's pretty standard in war gaming , " Woodhead says , comparing the front- and back-row party arrangement to military strategy games . But for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ winging it . " We just had no idea what we were doing . There was n't this body of experience . What we were doing in Wizardry , what Richard was doing in Akalabeth and Ultima -- we 're all just kind of blindly stumbling around , trying to figure out what works and what does n't . There were a lot of people trying to do these kind of games , and I think we basically got lucky . Not to wax too philosophical , but I kind of feel that whenever you talk about successes in your life , you have to do it with a certain amount of humility . " Wizardry and Ultima have one other thing in common : Both series came to an end about 20 years ago . In Ultima 's case , Electronic Arts ' poor handling of the franchise caused it to fizzle out after 1999 's Ultima IX . Meanwhile , Sir-Tech dissolved around the same time , and Sir-Tech Canada managed to ship 2001 's highly regarded Wizardry 8 before shuttering its own doors . The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ between several Japanese publisher -- who , technically , have keep the series alive since 2001 . But the dozens of games they 've released under the name Wizardry have consistently failed to move the needle or introduce any new or interesting ideas worth of the series ' legacy . The party system in Wizardry inadvertently inspired what would become the norm for JRPGs . Screencap from MobyGames That Wizardry should end up in Japan is probably no coincidence . Japanese RPG fans have done a much better job of keeping the torch lit for the first-person dungeon crawler , whereas Americans seem to have moved along to the logical next step in the format 's evolution -- free-roaming first-person games like The Elder Scrolls and the recent Fallouts . Much of Japan 's affection for the Wizardry style can likely be traced to the game 's influence on the biggest RPG hits in that territory during the early- to mid- ' 80s . The first proper RPG designed specifically for the Japanese market , The Black Onyx , was specifically a Wizardry clone . Meanwhile , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Mystery Dungeon were all profoundly influenced by import copies of Wizardry . The series is part of the Japanese RPG 's genetic makeup , in a sense . Meanwhile , Woodhead himself has developed many ties to Japan over the years as well ; currently , he runs AnimEigo , one of the first companies to have made a proper business out of licensing and localizing anime for the U.S. Yet he admits he 's at a loss to explain why his work has remained so enduring overseas . " There could be an argument made that 's just a founder effect in that Wizardry and Ultima just happened to be the games that were able to literally jump across the ocean , " he says . " A lot of the stuff that was going on in D&D and tabletop gaming ... because of all of their text , they were harder to localize , so they were delayed . Meanwhile , Japan did n't have access to PLATO . They did n't have access to a lot of what was going on in the sort of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ says , Wizardry helped introduce RPGs to the Japanese market . " It 's sort of a chicken and egg thing . Is it because Wizardry really appealed to them or was it because Wizardry was just the first one there and so everyone decided , well , that 's how it should be done ? I have no idea . You know , it , it 's one of these situations where there is no real answer to those questions . It probably was just , like , one guy in Japan who noticed Wizardry and imported it and told his friends . I have no idea who that is . I 'd like to thank him . " I will say that , in terms of Wizardry 's success in Japan , a huge amount of credit has to go to the people who worked at a company called Fortune that did the original localization of Wizardry . In fact , that 's one of the reasons I started going to Japan , was to help them with that localization . " Fittingly , Woodhead @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hails from Japan . " Personally , I think the best version of the original Wizardry ever done was the Nintendo version , " he says . " They managed to cram the entire game into a cartridge , and second of all , they leveraged the special graphics capabilities they had to make a really nice presentation . All the people in Japan did just tremendous work -- I was really , really impressed . " It 's hard to imagine the Wizardry series ever amounting to anything more than a succession of obscure low-budget games stranded in Japan again . Maybe that 's fine . The game 's unrelenting interpretation of tabletop gaming quietly continues to make its impact on the medium felt every time someone draws another line segment in the latest Etrian Odyssey ; every time they battle a grinning blue Slime ; every time they cast Curaga on a wounded halfling ninja .

A huge 360deg immersive 4K videowall is the centre-piece of the Sir John Monash Australian National Centre in northern France to relay the stories of Australian soldiers fighting on the Western Front . Paul Milligan reports . In a country rich in historical significance , it is surprising that the most expensive museum built in decades in France is in fact Australian . The AUS$100 million ( ? 63m ) Sir John Monash Centre , named after an Australian military commander of the First World War , located in Villers-Bretonneuax in northern France , is the hub of the Australian Remembrance Trail along the Western Front . The Centre tells Australia 's story of the First World War Western Front battlefields in the words of those who served . The Centre fuses AV technology such as videowalls and touchscreens with historical relics to convey the truth behind the battles . The decision to build the 1,000sq m centre , funded by a branch of the Australian government called the Department of Veterans ' Affairs , was taken in 2015 by then-PM Tony Abbot , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Front should be much better known ' . The construction of the site was not without its problems however , during the excavation for the build the construction company found 234kg of unexploded bombs , and retrieved 180 personal artefacts , both from the First World War . The AV lead on the project was global AV company Orpheo Group , based in Grenoble , France . It was first made aware of the project by one of its resellers ( alongside integration work , Orpheo also produces audio guides for museums ) in Australia , and entered a tender bid for the project . After beating three other companies , Orpheo was awarded the contract in July 2017 . Orpheo was tasked with supplying AV to a several multimedia galleries , equipped with more than 450 LCD screens , a complete video integration and broadcasting system , show control technology and other equipment . To do this Orpheo began looking for different companies to handle the different parts of the project . French company Videmus , a specialist in show control , designed the control systems . ADSI @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ site , with Digital Liance taking control of the installation of the Cisco IT network infrastructure . The brief from the client was straightforward says Antoine Eisenstein , general manager , Orpheo . " The main request from the customer was redundancy , they wanted to operate the site without technical staff , to have the capability to do it remotely . If we need to go to site we will , but most of the site is designed to be accessed remotely . " To make things easy for the 110,000 annual visitors that are expected to come to the centre a bespoke app was created by Australian design consultancy Convergence Associates . Downloaded as soon as you get to site via the Centre 's Wi-Fi , the app guides you through the experience . " The idea behind the centre is synchronicity , " adds Eisenstein . " When you arrive you are met by a screen which will detect your smartphone and stream audio to your device ( it can handle Apple and Android ) in your language . " Using beacon technology the app @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ content on to one of the nearest screens , projectors and individual devices . Outside , as visitors walk past the 2,000 gravesites , they hear stories of some of the soldiers lost on the battlefields . They then move to the Australian National Memorial , which bears the names of more than 10,700 Australian soldiers who died in France and have no known grave . The app integrates data from the National Archives of Australia so visitors can search the database and locate names of soldiers commemorated on the wall . Much of the content , designed to bring the Western Front to life , was produced by Australian media company Wildbear Entertainment . The content features new and archival footage , animations , maps , music and soundscapes which are tailored for a personalised experience and delivered in three languages ; English , French and German . The highlight of the Centre is a 483 sq m multimedia interpretive and immersive gallery experience designed by Convergence Associates . The immersive gallery features an 8-minute video shown on a giant circle of 185 NEC LCD panels ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ different configurations , all held together by 96 Peerless-AV videowall mounts , and processed using 96 Fx4 Datapath display wall controllers . The content , all shot and shown in 4K 25 , is driven by 60 servers each generating 4 x 4K , all managed and synchronised by Watchout . These servers then drive the screens via an internal split for the main walls and via Datapath Fx4s for the more structured walls/columns . The immersive gallery also features spatial audio , so the video and audio is provided in 360 degrees , to fully immersive the viewer . The experience is enhanced by smoke effects and light beams , all in sync with the video content . " It is is the most important part of the tour , as it gives the viewer of an idea of what it was like to be on a battlefield , " says Eisenstein . Why choose a videowall consisting of LCD panels , when blended projection or LED might have achieved the same result , with no ( or very little noticeable ) bezel ? " If we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't have been good enough , so we chose LCD panels to make sure it gives that immersive effect we wanted . " Did Orpheo have to compromise at all on the AV within the budget they were given ? " The client was very quality-orientated . Like many projects the clients do n't want to adjust or change the original budget , but they were flexible enough because they wanted things to work well , so they would give us things we needed . " The project was finished on budget and on time to open for Anzac Day in late April . The historical importance of the Centre was reflected in the guest list for its inauguration , with included the French prime minister , Australian prime minister and Prince Charles from the UK .

Justin Edinburgh is expecting Leyton Orient 's trip to Portugal to prove worthwhile come the end of the new season . The Brisbane Road outfit spent six days in the Algarve last week and it seems to have brought the already tight-knit squad together even more . All the signs so far point towards a successful season for the O 's and the fitness work put in between July 9 and July 15 should stand them in good stead ahead of August 4 . Edinburgh : " The Portugal trip was first class and was as good as I have been on as a player , coach and manager . " The players appreciated it .

Josh Koroma then continued his fine summer so far with a goal in the 68th minute after good play by under-18 defender Shadrach Ogie . Captain Jobi McAnuff ensured the O 's ended with a flourish with 88 played when his cross was put into his own net by Lewis Knight . It made sure Orient secured another pre-season win to keep them in good shape ahead of travelling to Concord Rangers this Saturday ( 3pm kick-off ) .

They have another 17 days to go until they kick off the National League campaign at Salford City on August 4 . While there is more work to be done , Orient 's manager is satisfied with the way the group are coming along . " I am pleased with the players ' fitness and that 's key . First and foremost we need to get them up to speed for the start of the season and we look like we are getting there , " said Edinburgh .

Yesterday , 10:48 , by Matthew Scott Sebastian Vettel hailed his record-breaking pole position at the German Grand Prix as a career highlight , but lamented the technical issues that prevented Lewis Hamilton from challenging at Hockenhiem . Hamilton ground to a halt in Q1 with a hydraulic failure and is set to start Sunday 's race 14th . Vettel will go in search of a first win at his local Hockenheimring after clocking one minute 11.212 seconds to demolish the lap record set by Michael Schumacher with Ferrari in 2004 . The home favourite was two tenths of a second quicker than Valtteri Bottas on the final runs in Q3 , who led the charge after Mercedes team-mate Hamilton went out of qualifying early . Though ecstatic with a second pole position at Hockenheim , and 55th of his career , Vettel spared a thought for his title rival . Asked where the lap ranks in his career , Vettel said : " The honest answer ? I do n't remember all the laps @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ quite a lot . But , yeah today is definitely one of the best moments .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'takes the fuss out of organising' does not involve a causee NP object that participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a general benefit or convenience, which is not characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence 'Resorts take the stress out of sunbathing' does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a general benefit provided by resorts, not a causative action with a specific causee.

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'He' is the NP subject, 'was forced' is the V1 (passive voice), 'out of qualifying' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also fits the prevention interpretation, as the hydraulics failure prevented him from qualifying. The verb 'forced' falls under the category of exerting force or pressure, which is one of the classifications for verbs in this construction. The NP object is implied in the passive construction (someone forced him), and the causee is 'He' who was prevented from qualifying. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'The shortage of homes' is the NP subject, 'has priced' is V1, 'them' is the NP object, and 'renting or buying' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, meaning the shortage of homes has prevented them from renting or buying. The NP object 'them' functions as a causee, and the construction fits the semantic requirements of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'come out of' in a different context, where 'writing the book' is a gerund phrase acting as the object of the preposition 'out of', and there is no NP object or the required interpretation types (movement/extraction or prevention).

Single mother-of-five Julie Noble has moved closer to achieving her lifelong literary dream after being selected for a new anthology celebrating working-class writers . Chris Burn reports .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'my parents (and therefore me)' is the NP object and 'pursuing any sort of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lot' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. The verb 'priced' implies a means of exerting force or pressure (metaphorically), fitting one of the verb categories. The interpretation is prevention, as the parents and the speaker were prevented from pursuing certain opportunities due to being priced out. The NP object 'my parents (and therefore me)' functions as a causee, participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

I was always one of those kids who picked up a cue during and after the World Snooker Championship , a tennis racquet inspired by Wimbledon and fell in love with the darts every winter during the World Championships . I would always saunter excitedly down to the local club or park after watching the world 's best sportspeople on the telly and try to emulate the excitement of a Hendry v White Crucible final or a Taylor v Priestley showdown . Sure , the novelty would wear off until the next big thing , but the enjoyment and the skills learned never really leave you . So after all the excitement of last week 's Open at Carnoustie , I 'd imagine there are kids of all ages -- even the bigger kids -- who have been excitedly hitting the driving ranges , putting greens and golf courses after being bitten by the golfing bug . Here 's the rub though : I always felt that my parents ( and therefore me ) were priced out of pursuing any sort of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lot that 's changed quite frankly . Great strides have been made in making golf more accessible to the masses and in encouraging youngsters to pick up clubs and have a go . But I still feel personally that Fife can still do much more to help in both regards . The Kingdom is not only the birthplace of the sport but it 's a Mecca for enthusiasts all over the world . It 's home to the most diverse range of challenging courses , and with scores of courses it is little wonder it is such a celebrated golfing region . Yet clubs have faced the struggle of appealing to new audiences , to remedy falling membership and an ageing population . I do think the days of golf being deemed too elitist or too expensive have diminished to a certain extent . There are plenty of ways to save money by booking discounted tee times or finding deals on equipment . But as a dad of two little girls , I have n't been able to find the time to hit the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I have wanted to , and was fortunate enough to get a set of clubs for nothing from a good mate . But when you consider committing to the cost of a membership plus the cost of equipment/clothing etc , it 's little wonder people like me find it so overwhelming . Some of the price tags make it equally as off-putting as a mere hobby . Given its prominence , Fife has to do more to not only strengthen its claim to be the Home of Golf but also reach out to more youngsters , tear them away from their X-Box or PlayStations , and make the game truly more inclusive for all . It might be costlier than the likes of football or tennis , but less Fortnite and more fairways would be a hugely beneficial step for the next generation 's overall health and wellbeing . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'get more pleasure out of winning' involves the verb 'get' with an NP object 'more pleasure', but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, 'winning' is part of the NP 'winning a first-class game', not a VP2[-ing] predicate with a causee object.

HARRY Brook is hoping personal progression from scores in the thirties and forties can push Yorkshire towards silverware in the Vitality Blast . The 19-year-old has made a bright start to life as a T20 player , posting 44 , 20 , 38 and 33 in four North Group innings from number three . Brook is hoping to return to the Vikings line-up against Birmingham Bears in front of the TV cameras at Emerald Headingley tomorrow ( 6.30pm ) having missed last Friday 's nail-biting defeat at Lancashire due to England 's returning stars . But , given Joe Root is unavailable , he looks set to fight it out with Tom Kohler-Cadmore for a place .

The Vikings have won three of their first five North Group games and sit sixth with a game in hand on all teams above them in pursuit of a top four finish and quarter-final qualification . " There 's a lot of games coming up , so we need to get some momentum and run with it , " said the Burley-in-Wharfedale product . " Birmingham outplayed us at Edgbaston .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It involves the phrase 'get more pleasure out of winning', where 'winning' is part of a gerund phrase that functions as the object of the preposition 'out of'. There is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the sentence does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it expresses a source of pleasure, which is not related to the transitive out of -ing construction.

HARRY Brook is hoping personal progression from scores in the thirties and forties can push Yorkshire towards silverware in the Vitality Blast . The 19-year-old has made a bright start to life as a T20 player , posting 44 , 20 , 38 and 33 in four North Group innings from number three . Brook is hoping to return to the Vikings line-up against Birmingham Bears in front of the TV cameras at Emerald Headingley tomorrow ( 6.30pm ) having missed last Friday 's nail-biting defeat at Lancashire due to England 's returning stars . But , given Joe Root is unavailable , he looks set to fight it out with Tom Kohler-Cadmore for a place . Brook , who has been given a license to thrill by the management , said : " I feel I 've done alright , especially having not expected to be in any of the T20 squads . " I 've had quite a lot of starts , but I just need to go on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ thirties and forties . Hopefully that 's not far away . " I 'm coming in at three , so I 'm usually in for the last couple of overs of the power play when the field 's up . I like to hit over the top and have been able to do that . That freedom is massive for me . " Yorkshire 's T20 campaign has reached a crucial stage , with this the first of four games in five days . The Vikings have won three of their first five North Group games and sit sixth with a game in hand on all teams above them in pursuit of a top four finish and quarter-final qualification . " There 's a lot of games coming up , so we need to get some momentum and run with it , " said the Burley-in-Wharfedale product . " Birmingham outplayed us at Edgbaston . The first over killed the game for us ( 33 off it as they chased 158 ) . " Ed Pollock struck them well . But that happens . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ balls this summer , his first full campaign in the first team .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'come out of hiding', where 'hiding' is a noun, not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object between the verb 'come' and 'out of hiding', and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Yesterday , one developer from Dr. Spacezoo creator Smash/Riot tweeted an email that a coworker received after they left Unity idling overnight . Addressed to " REPLACETHIS , " the email says Unity " noticed that you have been inactive on the editor for a while " and asks if " there 's something I can do to get you back to developing .

The original aim was to check in with people who have not signed into their Unity account for some time , with a view to suggesting new learning materials that could help . Instead it went out to the wrong group of people , and to make matters worse , our wording was confusing . We looked into the details of what happened and want to reassure you that the Unity Editor being left on overnight was not related to receiving the email .

Nathan Mishler of Studio Cypher said he received a phone call from Unity about potential EULA violations , explained that it was a mistake , and got his account un-flagged , only for his business partner to receive the same email the very next day .

Unity sales manager Calvin Chau explained that " we have been testing a new sales engagement platform " and that those tests had gone a bit awry . " The templated emails that went out were intended to be personalized prior to sending but obviously there had been a breakdown in the process flow , " Chau said , " prompting all emails to be sent out automatically . The second part of the problem -- cultivating to somewhat of a perfect storm -- was that the email you had received was intended for folks that we had legitimate reason to believe were in violation of our Terms of Service . Unfortunately , a clerical error in our backend system had bucketed you along with a small subset of other fellow developers incorrectly into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for more information on the inactivity and EULA emails . Global head of communications Amanda Taggart confirmed that " these errant EULA violations emails wo n't affect anyone 's access to Unity " and explained that they and the inactivity emails " were unrelated and both a result of human error . " Here 's the full statement from Unity : The EULA email was sent in error to a small number of developers due to a mixup on our side . In general , the intention of our EULA email is to open a dialogue with developers who we think might be using the wrong version of Unity and violating the EULA . Unity offers three tiers : Pro , Plus , and Personal . The primary differentiator is the developer 's annual revenue . We 've set up these products this way so that anyone can get started free of charge via Personal . Plus is for developers generating more than $100K in annual gross revenue and Pro for developers generating more than $200K in annual gross revenue . We believe this is a great way @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to continue to invest in making new tools and technology for all developers . Recently , a small batch of EULA emails were sent in error to developers using Personal and Plus . The inactivity email was also sent to the wrong individuals and with an error in the header that read ' REPLACETHIS ' . This was a new type of support we are testing to further help developers . Our intention was to offer developers help as we want more developers to succeed in launching games . We wanted to let them know that we have real people available to help them if needed . This email went out to a small group of developers . Most responded with words of thanks for reaching out and offering help , but a few found it confusing and/or suspicious . We thank everyone for their feedback on this . We have already started making changes based on both the negative and positive feedback . We are always trying out new ways to enable success and solve hard problems for Unity developers . This innovative spirit and desire to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ means we are always trying out new ideas , new solutions , and new ways of communicating with the ever changing and diverse needs of Unity developers . Sometimes we wo n't get it right . And when that happens we 'll take responsibility for that and fix it . Taggart also said developers can opt out of receiving such emails at any time , adding that " while poorly executed , this email was intended to offer help to developers in achieving their goals .

" The templated emails that went out were intended to be personalized prior to sending but obviously there had been a breakdown in the process flow , " Chau said , " prompting all emails to be sent out automatically . The second part of the problem -- cultivating to somewhat of a perfect storm -- was that the email you had received was intended for folks that we had legitimate reason to believe were in violation of our Terms of Service . Unfortunately , a clerical error in our backend system had bucketed you along with a small subset of other fellow developers incorrectly into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for more information on the inactivity and EULA emails . Global head of communications Amanda Taggart confirmed that " these errant EULA violations emails wo n't affect anyone 's access to Unity " and explained that they and the inactivity emails " were unrelated and both a result of human error . " Here 's the full statement from Unity : The EULA email was sent in error to a small number of developers due to a mixup on our side . In general , the intention of our EULA email is to open a dialogue with developers who we think might be using the wrong version of Unity and violating the EULA . Unity offers three tiers : Pro , Plus , and Personal . The primary differentiator is the developer 's annual revenue . We 've set up these products this way so that anyone can get started free of charge via Personal . Plus is for developers generating more than $100K in annual gross revenue and Pro for developers generating more than $200K in annual gross revenue . We believe this is a great way @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to continue to invest in making new tools and technology for all developers . Recently , a small batch of EULA emails were sent in error to developers using Personal and Plus . The inactivity email was also sent to the wrong individuals and with an error in the header that read ' REPLACETHIS ' . This was a new type of support we are testing to further help developers . Our intention was to offer developers help as we want more developers to succeed in launching games . We wanted to let them know that we have real people available to help them if needed . This email went out to a small group of developers . Most responded with words of thanks for reaching out and offering help , but a few found it confusing and/or suspicious . We thank everyone for their feedback on this . We have already started making changes based on both the negative and positive feedback . We are always trying out new ways to enable success and solve hard problems for Unity developers . This innovative spirit and desire to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ means we are always trying out new ideas , new solutions , and new ways of communicating with the ever changing and diverse needs of Unity developers . Sometimes we wo n't get it right . And when that happens we 'll take responsibility for that and fix it . Taggart also said developers can opt out of receiving such emails at any time , adding that " while poorly executed , this email was intended to offer help to developers in achieving their goals .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not provide a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'noped the f*** out of' is more idiomatic and does not fit the grammatical properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

HUNDREDS of friends and relatives gathered to celebrate the life of a " dare-devil " dad from Barrow . The funeral of 30-year-old Chris Maitland , known as Fudd , took place yesterday at Thorncliffe Crematorium . Floral displays sitting atop his coffin read ' Dad ' and ' Fudd ' as Mr Maitland 's close family and friends carried him inside . Friends and family made their way inside took their seats at a packed-out crematorium as REM 's Everybody Hurts was played . Minister Neil Mason started the service by reading The Dash a poem by Linda Ellis which highlights that it is the way a person lived their life , and not the birth and death dates , which matters most . " Chris certainly made the most of his dash , " Mr Mason said . After listening to Tears by Rush @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ those gathered at the service heard about how his life started in the Liverpool area before the family relocated to Barrow . His nickname , Fudd , came from a neighbour who observed how as a toddler Mr Maitland looked remarkably similar to Bugs Bunny 's archenemy in Loony Tunes . " His dad said he was an adrenaline junkie and it was this which robbed you all of a loving son and friend , " Mr Mason added , referring to the tragic circumstances in which Mr Maitland lost his life , after leaping into Hodge Close Quarry near Coniston . " He died doing what he loved - living life to the full . He was a dare-devil and he got his kicks out of doing something better and higher than the last person . " Mr Maitland 's sister Ashleigh told how his one true love was his five-year-old son Jackson and described how her " adventurous " brother would " always do what he wanted no matter what " . Repeating his often-voiced ethos , she said : " No matter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Nobody tells me what I can and ca n't do ' . " Bringing the service to an end , Mr Mason read out Credo by Jack London , a poem which many felt was apt in describing Mr Maitland and the way he lived his life . " The function of man is to live , not to exist , " Mr Mason read . As the crematorium emptied , to the sound of Extreme 's More Than Words , mourners left donations for Coniston Mountain Rescue Team whose volunteers assisted in recovering Mr Maitland 's body from the quarry following his death last month . The Dash by Linda Ellis " I read of a man who stood to speak at a funeral of a friend . " He referred to the dates on the tombstone from the beginning ... to the end . " He noted that first came the date of birth and spoke of the following date with tears , " But said what mattered most of all was the dash between those years . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on earth , " And now only those who loved them know what that little line is worth . " For it matters not , how much we own , the cars ... the house ... the cash .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'priced out of' followed by a gerund phrase 'finding the striker he needs...', which does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction as it lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'the people' is the NP object and 'working' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, meaning the people are being prevented from working due to being priced out. The verb 'priced' can be classified under 'By means of exerting force or pressure', fitting the criteria for the transitive out of -ing construction.

It remains to be seen whether Funso Ojo is ready to return to the side after he was unable to take his place in the squad against Walsall and Doncaster after suffering a setback in his injury when appearing against Coventry . There was a welcome return to the side for Josh Morris who managed 77 minutes against Doncaster , while new signing Ryan Colclough also managed 90 minutes . Cameron Borthwick-Jackson was replaced late on in the game on Tuesday by Lewis Butroid and will be assessed ahead of the trip to the Stadium of Light . BIG FISH IN A SMALL POND The Black Cats are certainly the biggest side in League One by quite a distance . Their budget compared to other sides in the league is huge and they will be looking for an immediate return back to the Championship after two successive relegations . It has been a tough time for Sunderland fans who over the past few seasons having seemingly had a conveyor belt of new managers come and go through the seemingly revolving doors at the Stadium of Light . That @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and going and no manager being able to get a settled team . Added to that there has been the off-field issues with the club being in millions pounds of debt , although that was wiped when former chairman Ellis Short sold the club to Stewart Donald . But with a new owner in place and a new manager in Jack Ross , has heralded in a new era and Sunderland will look to build on that during the season . It has been a steady start for the Black Cats and like Scunthorpe have a win and a draw from their first two games . They beat Charlton on the opening day courtesy of a 96th minute winner from Lynden Gooch , before being pegged back by Luton after taking the lead . With being such a big club , every team in League One will be wanting to take the scalp of the Black Cats , so they will definitely not have it all their own way . They have overseen a huge transformation during the summer with plenty of players coming @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the young talent has already made a difference . Gooch , captain George Honeyman and Josh Maja have continued their form from last season with players such as Chris Maguire , Dylan McGeouch , Jon McLaughlin and Glenn Loovens already making a difference . There are two in the Sunderland line-up and they are the aforementioned Maja and Gooch . Maja burst on to the scene last season and even at just 19 this could be a big season for the teenager . He has a real chance to make his mark in League One and has just done that by scoring twice in the opening two games . The youngster certainly has an eye for goal and can fashion a chance out of nothing . Gooch has been at the club since 2014 and has steadily worked his way up from the Youth set up into the first team . It is over the last season and a half that he has really blossomed and scored the last minute winner against Charlton . His work rate is second to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ play with his creativity in midfield . Josh Maja LAST TIME OUT You have to go all the way back to 1987 when the teams last met in a competitive fixture , when the Iron beat the Black Cats 2-1 in an FA Cup match . The last league meeting between the sides was in 1963-64 season , with Scunthorpe drawing the home game 1-1 before losing 1-0 . The two teams did meet in the Checkatrade Trophy last year when Scunthorpe beat the Black Cats under-21 side 3-1. |

Leyton Orient head coach Justin Edinburgh looks on from the touchline against Wrexham ( pic : Simon O'Connor ) . The current condition of Leyton Orient 's home pitch will given the team the chance to impose themselves on their future opponents , according to Justin Edinburgh 's number two Ross Embleton . After two National League games in E10 to date , O 's have only managed to pick up two points following draws with Ebbsfleet United and Barrow . In both fixtures Orient produced some eye-catching football , but could n't hold onto their lead and as a result have yet to win at the Breyer Group Stadium so far . Nevertheless , Embleton hailed the work of groundsman Colin James and his staff after Orient 's well documented problems with the pitch last season . Ahead of hosting Boreham Wood on Saturday , O 's will look to make the most of their plush looking surface . Embleton said : " I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who have worked on the pitch because they got it into top class condition for the stage of the season we are at and then the foxes come along and did what they did to it ! " When you look at it now , Colin has definitely turned it around into a pitch he can be positive and proud of .

" We were really sorry about the late goal we conceded and these types of games you really want to hold onto the lead and send everyone home happy , but the biggest thing for me was the support was there again .

Early in August , Ghana 's central bank revoked the licenses of five local banks and combined them into one -- the newly created state-run Consolidated Bank -- issuing 5.8 billion cedis ( $1.2 billion ) in bonds to clear their debt . The Bank of Ghana ( BoG ) accused the collapsed banks of a range of issues , including poor corporate governance , questionable transactions and dishonest reporting . The merger was just one step out of many that President Nana Akufo-Addo 's government has been forced to take in order to reform Ghana 's rotten banking sector , brought close to collapse as a result of bad governance and weak lending . This past week , Ghana 's deputy central bank governor Elsie Addo Awadzi said in an interview that law enforcement agencies will " further investigate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " This central bank is carving a niche for itself . It is beginning to bite and that alone could engender some confidence in the medium and long term , " Osei-Assibey said . - ' Good progress ' - The banking intervention will add to Ghana 's already high debt burden , said Razia Khan , Africa economist at Standard Chartered , in a note to investors earlier this month . Ghana is currently in its final year of an IMF bailout totalling almost $1 billion , with its debt as a percentage of gross domestic product hovering over 60 percent . Along with the Consolidated Bank loan , the central bank will give support to other banks in order to help them meet a minimum capital requirement of 400 million cedis by the end of 2018 . Despite the turmoil , " Ghana has made good progress on fiscal consolidation in recent months " , said Khan . " The action taken to strengthen the banking system is likely to be viewed as a necessary measure by the fund and we do @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ programme , " she said . If Consolidated Bank is run properly , it may even play a positive role in the economy , said Souhir Mzali , Africa editor at Oxford Business Group , a London-based research firm . " It might transform from a debt burden to an asset by the time the government is expected to offload shares in 2020 , " Mzali said . - ' Lost confidence ' - Of course , there will be consequences . " It 's going to affect banking habits , " said Kwesi Jonah , senior research fellow at the Institute of Democratic Governance in Ghana 's capital of Accra . " Some people will lose confidence in the banking system altogether , other people will be more inclined to move towards the foreign banks , " Jonah said , blaming the previous administration for letting the sector rot . " There was lack of political will to deal with the problem , " he added . President Akufo-Addo was voted into power in 2016 on a pledge to revamp Ghana @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for a bailout the year before . Ghana became Africa 's fastest-growing economy in 2017 thanks to a surge in oil and gas production , recording a blistering 6.8 percent growth in the first quarter of this year . But there is no getting away from the fact that West African gold and cocoa producer still has work to do in order to restore integrity to the tarnished financial sector . As Ghana 's Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta put it this past week , the days of being " soft " on laws are over . " Hopefully ( with ) what we are going to do in the banking sector , everybody will begin to realise that those periods are gone . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and the phrase 'sourcing from small local suppliers' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'out of' here is part of the phrase 'makes a virtue out of', which does not align with the construction's properties.

It 's becoming harder to find a true restaurant these days . Caf ? s have encroached on to their territory , blurring definitions . So many places want you to eat breakfast or brunch all day long . It seems enough to graft variations on eggs , granola , cooked breakfast on to what is essentially a cake and coffee shop . Places that would appear to fit the old description of restaurants increasingly serve up small plates or sharing platters . Main courses , as such , are going out the window . It 's all very well , but when you 've eaten several dishes that quite often do n't hang together when you apply any coherent organising principle , you 've often racked up quite a bill , despite the lack of ceremony and informality . To be honest , I think there 's a lot to be said for a three-course meal , the French prix fixe sort if you 're on a budget , ? la carte if not . It offers a traditional , well-understood structure with the possibility of built-in balance . Brunch ? I 'm hungry again by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ proper meal on the other hand , one that includes protein and fat -- not just quickly digested carbs -- satiates my appetite much longer . I can forget about eating for hours after . The Wee Restaurant in Edinburgh does an attractive menu du jour : two good courses for ? 16 , three for ? 20 , all the more welcome because it makes a virtue out of sourcing from small local suppliers . But of course , we flit between it and the ? la carte menu , which includes some gems that are hard to resist . So after some nice fresh sourdough with a serious pat of butter and a tapenade that 's exhilaratingly super-charged with anchovy , we discover the sweet , soft , porky , artisanal delights of East Coast Cured 's handmade salami , which is slow-cured and matured in its workshop in Leith . It 's excellent . I 'm less taken with the dish as a whole , with spears of griddled asparagus , harissa mayonnaise , a pile of rocket , and mini-mozzarella balls that have been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ turn something that should be light and milky into something heavy and chewy . This charcuterie is good enough in its own right to be served for itself , maybe with a few crunchy radishes , or plump olives added . But this is the British habit of not believing that really great ingredients , served simply , will find favour . Our dressed Orkney crab , on the other hand , is a much more focused , convincing dish . Freshness shines out from the white meat ; its dressing is n't too heavy and is brightly flecked with lots of dill . Long , thin , wavy croutons of bravely brittle fried walnut bread make a perfect textural match . The tangle of fris ? e and cress is welcome . The only bum note is over-peppery rocket . From the economical menu du jour , smoked pork shoulder with confit onion and Puy lentils represents terrific value for money : two substantial slices of succulent meat that has been griddled . This is a carnivore 's delight -- not enough in the way of greens for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would pull in the lunchtime trade in rural France . But why add lardons to the lentils ? This is hammy overkill . Also from the menu du jour there 's a decent chunk of crisp-skinned hake on a slightly too mushy and creamy " wild " mushroom risotto . The fungi look to me like cultivated Shitake or button mushrooms , but then in the context of fungi the word " wild " is so often used fancifully ; the same goes for all those useless , mysteriously expensive " heritage " tomatoes . I should have seen it coming , but the bread and butter pudding with Chantilly cream and toffee sauce is way off the sugar equivalent of the Richter scale . And sadly it 's the same story with the chocolate pecan tart and mascarpone ice cream . It too is professionally put together , but it occupies a zone of sweetness that my taste buds have long since deserted . After the pork this would be a stomach sinker , a fall-asleep-at-your-desk job . If only I 'd chosen instead Iain Mellis cheese with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ menu . I 'll know next time .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes a situation where the MacDonalds refused to come out of hiding, but there is no NP object involved in the construction, and the verb 'refused' does not fit the semantic classes of verbs that typically appear in the V1 slot of the transitive out of -ing construction. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present in the sentence.

It is a ghoulish souvenir , taken by one of Scotland 's most famous authors from what he called " the scene of a horrid feudal vengeance " . Now a skull from the personal collection of Sir Walter Scott is set to play a vital role in solving the mysteries of a brutal massacre . Legend has it that , in the sixteenth century , the entire population of the island of Eigg -- nearly 400 men , women and children -- were murdered when clansmen from a neighbouring island cornered them in a cave then burned them alive . More than 200 years later , Scott -- curious to investigate the bloody tale -- sailed to the site of the so-called Massacre Cave and removed a skull as a keepsake . Now , as modern science is beginning to shine a light on the circumstances of the awful murder , the trust that manages Scott 's estate have agreed to offer up the skull for analysis . Their decision comes as new analysis of other bones , more recently discovered in the cave , suggests that one of the victims was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , chair of the Eigg History Society , which has been working with Historic Environment Scotland ( HE S ) to research the massacre , said the souvenir could yield vital clues . She said : " The chance to examine the skull from Sir Walter Scott 's collection could be invaluable . " It would help shed even more light on what happened in the cave . The skull has teeth which would help with analysis . I would like to see it at least loaned to the archaeologists -- the more information we have the better . " The legend of Massacre Cave is one of Scotland 's most gruesome . Tradition states that a party of MacLeods from neighbouring Skye sailed to Eigg in 1576 and made unwanted advances towards the local girls . The angry menfolk of Eigg -- all MacDonalds -- rounded up the invaders and set them adrift in an open boat . And although the MacLeods were rescued by their fellow clansmen -- they vowed to return to Eigg take their revenge . The following year @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the terrified islanders all took shelter in a secret cave by the shore . Named Uamh Fhraing -- the St Francis ' Cave -- it had a small low entrance covered in undergrowth , but was large enough inside to hide the entire population -- said to number 395 men , women , and children . After searching the island fruitlessly for two days the MacLeods decided to set sail -- but then spotted one of the MacDonalds leaving the cave .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a situation where the MacDonalds refused to come out of hiding, which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move or preventing them from doing something as per the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'come out of hiding' is an intransitive use of 'come' with a prepositional phrase, not fitting the construction's criteria.

It is a ghoulish souvenir , taken by one of Scotland 's most famous authors from what he called " the scene of a horrid feudal vengeance " . Now a skull from the personal collection of Sir Walter Scott is set to play a vital role in solving the mysteries of a brutal massacre . Legend has it that , in the sixteenth century , the entire population of the island of Eigg -- nearly 400 men , women and children -- were murdered when clansmen from a neighbouring island cornered them in a cave then burned them alive . More than 200 years later , Scott -- curious to investigate the bloody tale -- sailed to the site of the so-called Massacre Cave and removed a skull as a keepsake . Now , as modern science is beginning to shine a light on the circumstances of the awful murder , the trust that manages Scott 's estate have agreed to offer up the skull for analysis . Their decision comes as new analysis of other bones , more recently discovered in the cave , suggests that one of the victims was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , chair of the Eigg History Society , which has been working with Historic Environment Scotland ( HE S ) to research the massacre , said the souvenir could yield vital clues . She said : " The chance to examine the skull from Sir Walter Scott 's collection could be invaluable . " It would help shed even more light on what happened in the cave . The skull has teeth which would help with analysis . I would like to see it at least loaned to the archaeologists -- the more information we have the better . " The legend of Massacre Cave is one of Scotland 's most gruesome . Tradition states that a party of MacLeods from neighbouring Skye sailed to Eigg in 1576 and made unwanted advances towards the local girls . The angry menfolk of Eigg -- all MacDonalds -- rounded up the invaders and set them adrift in an open boat . And although the MacLeods were rescued by their fellow clansmen -- they vowed to return to Eigg take their revenge . The following year @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the terrified islanders all took shelter in a secret cave by the shore . Named Uamh Fhraing -- the St Francis ' Cave -- it had a small low entrance covered in undergrowth , but was large enough inside to hide the entire population -- said to number 395 men , women , and children . After searching the island fruitlessly for two days the MacLeods decided to set sail -- but then spotted one of the MacDonalds leaving the cave . When the MacDonalds refused to come out of hiding , the MacLeods piled thatch and roof timbers at the cave entrance and set fire to it , damping the flames so that the cave was filled with smoke . It was said 395 people died , either by smoke inhalation or heat and oxygen deprivation -- with only one family escaping to tell the tale .

A campaign group has pulled out of co-hosting a ' we deserve better ' event in Belfast after it was asked to reconsider inviting LGBT and pro-choice speakers . The campaign , started by Dylan Quinn from Enniskillen , is using the power of social media to unite people in urging MLAs to restore power sharing at Stormont . Northern Ireland has been without a functioning Executive since January 2017 . ? Next Tuesday Northern Ireland will pass the milestone of the longest period of any country has spent without a working government- 589 days . A series of events is planned across Northern Ireland on Tuesday to mark the passing of the record . However , campaign group Progressive Politics NI has now pulled out of co-hosting an event in Belfast to be held at City Hall . A Progressive Politics NI spokesperson said : " We had organised three speakers so far , two of them announced ; John O'Doherty from The Rainbow Project/Love Equality and Elaine Crory from Belfast Feminist Network/Alliance For Choice . " Unfortunately when we announced these speakers it became clear that some were upset as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about . They felt these are ' agendas ' and that this campaign was n't about them . " Organisers asked us to rethink these speakers as they wanted their message to be solely about getting the parties back to talk . It is therefore with deep regret that we have decided to pull out of said event . " Dylan Quinn is started the #WeDeserveBetter campaign in Enniskillen The spokesperson added : " We understand wanting to attract as many people as possible and from all corners of Northern Ireland , but we feel the issues of LGBT rights and bodily autonomy are extremely important issues that need addressed and not ' agendas ' . " The spokesperson said that money donated for the Belfast event via GoFundMe will be refunded within three to seven working days . The spokesperson added : " We would like to publicly apologise to John and Elaine . We stand with them , and the organisations they represent , in full solidarity in working to achieve equality for these and other issues . " Dylan Quinn , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' we deserve better ' events are completely independent from each other and that he did not object to the speakers chosen , but that he was concerned the event was being diverted away from the specific aim of putting pressure on political parties to return to Stormont . He said : " It became apparent that some of the speakers , the things that they were talking about , were resulting in people not focusing on the main aim of the ? ' we deserve better ' but were instead focusing on specific issues , which are important and vital issues , I do n't underestimate that . But the whole idea of this is that we do n't have a government to deal with any of this . " He added : " Now what we have is people arguing with each other and I am sure some of the political parties are loving it , because we are not focusing on them . It was not that we did n't want certain people to speak . We had a conversation to figure out how we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the ultimate aim of ' we deserve Better ' . " |

Overcrowding at Portland Prison is forcing prisoners to share cells , eating , sleeping and even using the toilet in spaces designed for one . Figures from the Ministry of Justice show that 496 prisoners were crammed into just 463 spaces at the prison in July .

WHEN Steven Darvill picked up the first pails of milk from his own Jersey cows in March , it was the beginning of a new chapter for The Handmade Ice Cream Company . Ever since starting his dairy brand near Ulverston six years ago , the former pastry chef has been on a mission to use the best possible ingredients in his luxury product . But without a farm or milking herd to call his own , he relied on middlemen to provide his main ingredient . All that changed two months ago when Steven went into partnership with a small dairy farm in the Cartmel Valley . By essentially buying eight of the animals in its Jersey herd , he 's guaranteed himself a weekly supply of enough rich milk to make all the luxury ice cream his customers crave . " Normal milk is water in comparison with Jersey milk " he says . " It 's not just the butterfat - Jersey milk has five to eight per @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whole milk . It 's the taste . Jersey milk has a creamier , more custardy , old-fashioned flavour . No other milk comes close . " From the farm where Steven collects fresh-from-the-parlour milk every day , it 's a short drive back to the Clock Tower Business Centre by the river Leven near Cark-in-Cartmel . Here , in a small dairy and production kitchen , Steven makes his cow-to-carton ice cream with the same attention to detail and provenance that he applies to his single-origin milk . " The best products require the best ingredients , " he says . " I could put additives and colouring into normal milk to make it look and taste a bit like Jersey , but it 's never going to be the same . " Standing apart from all the mass-produced ' luxury ' ice cream on the market has been Steven 's rum-and-raisin d ' ? tre since he started The Handmade Ice Cream Company . A stay-at-home Dad to Freddie , now six , he 'd got out of catering " because it 's not conducive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there is a lot of equipment and time involved in making ice cream , and that 's not something the average pastry chef has , " he explains . " So you 'll spend all day making a nice dessert but buy in an average ice cream to serve with it . My ice cream is what chefs would make if they had the time and the kit . " That means whole milk , double cream , proper chocolate , no thickeners , no extracts , no ready-made purees . His chocolate ice cream , for example , is made with Valrhona 70 per cent solid chocolate chips - one of the best couvertures that money can buy . The result tastes like melted chocolate - a world away from the powdery texture of most commercial chocolate ices . It 's Freddie 's favourite , too , Steven says . " You 'd think being my ice-cream taster would be a dream job for a six-year-old . But with Freddie it 's chocolate or nothing . " Pass the scoop , Freddie . The rest of us @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the other 20-plus varieties whose ingredients are as handmade as it says on the tub . For his Gingerbread ice cream , Steven makes a simple shortbread using flour , sugar and butter . Then he crumbles it with spices , treacle , golden syrup , mixed peel and crystallised ginger and bakes it again to produce an intense ginger biscuit to combine with stem-ginger syrup . Sticky Toffee ice cream starts life as a whole oven-fresh pudding - sauce and all - baked from scratch to fold through the Jersey ice-cream base . Salted Caramel is churned with a stovetop caramel , cooked to the edge of darkness and sprinkled with Cornish sea salt . Strawberries are roasted whole to intensify their flavour ; Lyth valley damsons are stewed into a compote ; fresh lemons are juiced and zested to give a feisty edge to Lemon Meringue Pie ice cream . " It 's time-consuming , but that 's what an artisan does , " says Steven , who invested ? 25,000 on a five-litre Italian churner and " the price of a new VW Golf @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ treats and ages the ice-cream base . Raw milk goes in , together with double cream and sugar . It 's heated up to 85 degrees C , held there for one second , then cooled and left alone for 12 hours . This ageing period develops the custardy flavours in the milk , which come from the cow and not from any eggs ( eggs are too unstable for a commercial kitchen , Steven says - he uses a plant-based emulsifier instead ) . There 's one he made earlier sitting in the pasteuriser when Taste visits . Steven passes a five-litre jugful through a sieve to catch the gritty pieces of vanilla pod that have been steeping in the milk mixture . Then he pours it into the churner . This is the stage at which compotes , caramels , crumbs and cakes would normally be added . It whirrs and wobbles ( just a little bit : this is an Italian racehorse of an ice-cream maker ) for six minutes or so , then ice cream oozes out . " It never tastes better than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , as he hands out little tubs of vanilla-seed speckled ice cream the colour of milk , not yellow food dye . Softer and smoother than it would be out of the freezer - it comes out at -10 degrees but will be blast-chilled for storage and delivery to more than 100 shops , restaurants and cafes . - it has a pure , lingering creaminess that leaves us holding out our paper cups for more . He prides himself on giving us the old-fashioned flavour of a " quintessential British summer " , but Steven 's approach to food and business is refreshingly 21st-century . Among his range of flavours are four vegan varieties , three of which - vanilla , chocolate and strawberry - are made using cashew milk that he soaks and blends himself ( the fourth one , coconut , is based on coconut cream ) . He hopes that the popularity of non-animal-based diets encourages all consumers to think about where food comes from and drives up standards of animal welfare . " From a personal point of view , I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . That 's why I 'm delighted to be able to get milk from a small-scale farm where the husbandry is so good that they know every animal by name . " I want my son to realise that if you 're going to do these things you 've got to do them well and sometimes you have to take a bit less profit yourself . Instead of making people feel bad about using milk , I want to make the whole thing more transparent and use less dairy product from a better background . " Everything in moderation , then , and no apologies for producing an expensive but not inaccessible product that 's designed to be enjoyed in small quantities , not gobbled by the tubful ( although that 's tempting ) . Steven , who hopes to open an ice cream parlour soon if he can find the right venue , tries not to eat ice cream every day , unless he 's sampling new batches . But he is partial to a boule or two of chocolate orange , his current favourite @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fresh orange zest added to the mix . And his preferred way of eating it ? " With sunshine , preferably , " he says . " Sunshine and a holiday would be good .

Clearly some rust in his legs from the injury lay-off he had and played his part in a backline which struggled for cohesion , confidence or urgency on the night . A unit which had evidently not played much together . Conor Shaughnessy - four Substituted halfway into his first competitive start since late January .

The head coach would argue if he did n't put minutes into his legs tonight , when would he ? When a man with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ most minutes under his belt , you are asking for trouble . Dependable and played his part in steadying the ship after Preston North End 's rapid start , but still has work to do on his passing and building from the back . Soldiered on with an injury for much of the second half after all three substitutions had been made , but it had n't been his greatest night before that point . The centre of Bielsa 's attention for periods in the second half as he failed to properly attack the left flank with attacks building on the opposite side . A lack of match action , 90 minutes in the previous round only , showed . May need under-23 action to stay sharp . Kalvin Phillips - six Solid in the tackle and accurate passing , but could do little in the face of the smothering Preston gave the whole United team from the first second . Looked better in the second half as a centre-back with more time on the ball . A calm head on the night when others went missing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the match . Quick enough , but little penetration or effect on the visiting defence . Keen to go with neat flicks and tricks when simple , basic control will do in this kind of match .

One of those who suffered as Preston went for United 's throat from the off . He will have better days in a United shirt . Lewis Baker - six Has the quality on the ball to score at any moment from any range for United , which will always make him an asset . Some of his long-range passing was magnificent , but he did not demonstrate the defensive skills needed to withstand the Preston tidal wave through the centre of the pitch . Caught in possession too frequently when he was moved into a holding role in the second half . Plenty of running and intent , but no product from the Manchester City loanee . Always looking and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for him on the night . Skied one decent chance in the first half . Patrick Bamford - five Several half-chances on the night and possibly produced the Whites ' best effort of the night in the first half when he forced Chris Maxwell into a sprawling save . Did not get his fair share of decisions out of referee Tony Harrington . Another who failed to offer much on the night . Played down the right instead of the left . No memorable quality of note . One wayward shot springs to mind . Samuel Saiz ( on for Shaughnessy h/t ) - six Like Baker , he always has the ability to create something out of nothing . Certainly looked like the most likely to deliver something for the hosts on a drab night in front of the home fans . Showed his frustration .

A new charter for cleaner air is to be launched by Oxford City Council , Greenpeace , and Friends of the Earth , calling on the Government to place the health of communities first . The charter , which was created by Oxford City Council , is believed to be the first formal cooperation with Greenpeace UK and Friends of the Earth ( EWNI ) ( England , Wales and Northern Ireland ) to be led by a local authority . It calls on the government to : Remove the most polluting vehicles from most polluting parts of towns and cities . Provide greater investment in public transport , walking and cycling infrastructure . End the sale of all new petrol and diesel cars and vans earlier than 2040 . Provide fiscal incentives to help people and businesses adopt cleaner vehicles . Invest in charging infrastructure and the supporting power network . Ensure fossil fuels do not generate the power used to fuel electrified vehicles . Adopt a new Clean Air Act , or equivalent for 21st century and independent watchdog with teeth . Launch a national public health @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pollution . New data showed that air pollution in Oxford fell by 22.7% between 2016 and 2017 , but four of the city 's monitoring locations still registered levels of toxic nitrogen dioxide ( NO2 ) above the legal limit . Data published last week by the Committee on the Medical Effects of Air Pollutants ( COMEAP ) estimated that between 28,000 and 36,000 premature deaths in the UK every year could be linked to long-term exposure to air pollution . Health experts have warned that there is no safe level of NO2 . In June the City Council wrote to environment secretary Michael Gove to call for a 10-point contract with local authorities to provide more powers and funding to tackle toxic air pollution . Councillor Tom Hayes , Board Member for Safer and Greener Environment at Oxford City Council said : " We all have a right to breathe clean air . Oxford City Council is cleaning up our air with world-leading practical changes but we 're hitting the limits of what we can achieve with the powers and funding we have from Government @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ voice with change-making campaigning organisations Greenpeace and Friends of the Earth and calling for action . " We believe that we can achieve more for the people of Oxford by combining to call for more powers and funding . " This Charter is calling on Government to adopt ten crucial actions to put the health of our communities first . If Government does n't heed our calls and make these changes , the citizens of this city will continue to live , work and commute in its toxic air . Confining the people of Oxford to the harmful health impacts of toxic air is morally wrong and Government need to make these changes now . " Dr Doug Parr , Chief Scientist at Greenpeace UK , said : " Without urgent action to remove diesel vehicles from our roads many thousands of people each year will be compelled to suffer ill health and early death , with the associated costs on our struggling NHS . This is the only financially prudent , as well as compassionate , solution to our diesel pollution crisis . " This @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people work , shop and live . We look forward to the its delivery by Oxford and other cities " Craig Bennet , Chief Executive at Friends of the Earth ( EWNI ) ( England , Wales and Northern Ireland ) , said : " We all have the right to clean air , and yet millions of people across the UK are breathing toxic air on a daily basis . Oxford City Council is showing the strong leadership needed against air pollution , and this charter demonstrates that local authorities up and down the country want to see more done to clean up our air . The UK government must pay attention to this call , and step up to deliver clean air for all . " The government has so far been far too happy to pass the buck to cash-strapped local authorities . Councils need increased resources to help people out of polluting cars and to make green transport like walking , cycling and public transport a viable alternative . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'get a kick out of seeing' involves a transitive verb 'get' with an NP object 'a kick', but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the NP object 'a kick' does not function as a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

Walker Hayes is releasing a new single on Thursday ( Aug. 30 ) that calls back to beloved hits of the ' 90s , appropriately titled " 90 's Country , " and he 's found a unique way to pay homage to the legends who came before him . To promote the single , Hayes has recreated three of the most iconic albums to come out of that era of counrty music : Garth Brooks ' No Fences ; A Lot About Livin ' ( and a Little ' Bout Love ) from Alan Jackson ; and George Strait 's blockbuster Strait Out of the Box , with all three offering a side-by-side look at the original and Hayes ' re-imagination . Hayes is unrecognizable in the recreation of Jackson 's classicalbum , rocking the blond sideburns , white cowboy hat and dark shades just as well as Jackson himself : He also does Brooks proud with his No Fences cover , doing his best to capture the superstar 's withering stare . " If tomorrow never comes ... you might not understand @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " he cleverly writes in the caption .

Knowing Hayes ' musical style , he 'll find a clever way to incorporate references to songs like " Cowboy Take Me Away , " " She Thinks My Tractor 's Sexy " and " Strawberry Wine .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'take the actual driving out of driving' involves the verb 'take' with 'the actual driving' as its object, but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to be a metaphorical expression about removing the essence of driving, not involving a causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate.

Do you enjoy driving ? I mean , really enjoy it ? If you do , make the most of the next few years -- because it seems that the joy you experience at the wheel of a motor car may soon become an endangered activity . Congestion on our roads has already bitten into much of the fun we once had in a car , but the cure for that congestion is about to destroy the pleasure completely . It 's called the self-drive car . And , judging by the millions being spent on its development , all we 'll soon have to do is get into our vehicle , tell the computer in the dashboard where we want to go and then sit back as it carries us to our chosen destination . What could be better than that , some might ask . For me , everything . Driving is n't just about getting from here to there : it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's when we are most alive , when our senses are at their highest alert , when our eyes and ears are in perpetual communion with our fingers and feet . 1966 MG MIDGET : My first proper job resulted in an MG Midget at just the time that the M6 opened , and the big thrill then was going for dinner in a motorway caf ? that straddled the shining new road Sitting there , hands at ten to two , we survey everything that is in front , beside or behind us , as we judge to within inches the gaps between other vehicles , our feet working seemingly unconsciously as we brake or accelerate , our brains automatically calculating the camber of the road on long bends . And , no matter how loud the music to which we 're listening , our ears stay tuned to recognise the merest of unexpected rattles above the purr of the engine . ' What a piece of work is man ... this man , anyway , ' we want to congratulate ourselves as , like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ control , as we make our journeys . It 's an exulting sensation . I love driving . I love the romance and feel of it , the challenge every time I set off , the welcome tremor of power as the engine is switched on and the ignition sparks , the realisation of freedom to go absolutely anywhere I want to go . Do n't misunderstand me . I 'm not a car fanatic . I 've no idea how many ccs any of my cars has had . Nor do I know how cars work . I do n't need to know , as long as they do . I 've never read a motoring magazine or watched a single episode of Top Gear , and I 've no ambition to have a hundred thousand pounds worth of steel , rubber and glass sitting outside my house . It is n't the cars that I love : it 's the driving . It 's been this way since I was nine , when a very kind farmer hoisted me on to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ down the row , Raymond , ' as he climbed on to a device we were towing for planting turnips . 1962 ALVIS TB14 : My first car was a two-seater , red 1951 Alvis TB14 bought in 1962 after a summer working on a pea-viner machine on a farm Obviously , it was a two-man job , so I was suddenly a man . I 'd somehow already become the owner of a primitive , home-made version of a go-kart ( basically old pram wheels and a couple of planks of wood ) , but sitting there in rapt concentration as the diesel engine chugged us down the field and we edged forward at about 2 mph , was the real thing . Like Mr Toad in The Wind In The Willows , I was hooked . Dodgem cars at fairgrounds followed a few years later . With the electricity sparking and the rock and roll never louder or better , I would waltz around the arena , trying to dodge the other cars rather than bump into them . I wanted to drive , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in my mother 's Hillman Minx was the 1958 equivalent of an initiation ceremony , and not much has happened in my life since then that can compare with the euphoria of that day . Since then , my cars have been like the stages of manhood , as I 've slept in them , eaten in them , romanced in them , and had my heart broken in them . Mostly , though , I 've explored corners of my world in them . My first car was a two-seater , red 1951 Alvis TB14 bought in 1962 after a summer working on a pea-viner machine on a farm . I was 21 , and for a few delightful weeks , I drove around the small town in which I lived , elbow resting nonchalantly on the open window , fantasising that I looked like Roger Smith in the detective series 77 Sunset Strip . He was the handsome one who went on to marry the Swedish-born actress Ann-Margret . But the Alvis was a huge beast with dodgy suspension , and hopelessly impractical -- especially @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at university . I 'd fondly hoped it might be good for attracting girls , but one of the few I managed to take for a drive was very unimpressed when it stalled in Trafalgar Square . She was American , and , as I jumped out and used a starting handle to get it going again -- which took a little time , I admit -- she was consumed with laughter . It was like a scene from a Laurel and Hardy movie , she ridiculed : ' You looked as though you were winding it up ' -- which was n't the impression I 'd hoped to convey . I sold it the following summer to buy an airline ticket to New York , from where my friend Ian and I drove to Kansas delivering a clapped-out old Ford taxi to a farmer there . You could do that in those days , the small ad columns in the newspaper always looking for people to deliver cars across the country for them . It was a wonderful @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to look for America ' , rolling down the endless highways , and to hear America , too , as every small town had its own radio stations with ' Little Stevie Wonder ' , Trini Lopez and Peter , Paul and Mary accompanying us as we drove . My first proper job resulted in an MG Midget at just the time that the M6 opened , and the big thrill then was going for dinner in a motorway caf ? that straddled the shining new road . 1980 FORD FALCON : Years passed , cars came and went , for hire or buy , a two-seater Pontiac Firebird in Hollywood , which was surprisingly under-powered , or a family Ford Falcon station wagon in New Zealand This was Sixties ' sophistication with a schooner of sherry . Happy , carefree days . Empty roads , no 70 mph speed limit quite yet ( it was n't introduced until December 1965 ) and no telling what was beyond the asphalt horizon ahead . It turned out to be a Singer Chamois , which was a posh @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the MG when , now married , we had a baby and needed a back seat for the carry-cot . I 'd reached a new stage of manhood -- responsibility . As the numbers in our family grew , so did the size of our car . A Vauxhall Viva followed . I 'm embarrassed by that now . But then I got lucky and wrote a film called That 'll Be The Day and spent my first cheque on a white Citroen DS , which came not only with a radio but a built-in cassette player . Hi-tech had arrived . Big and floaty as a boat it was , and if I ever had a dream to live , this was it , as I would glide pneumatically around London , every bump ironed out . In my mind , I was now that smouldering French leading man Jean-Paul Belmondo , with The Eagles and Neil Young my soundtrack , and headlights that changed direction when I turned the steering wheel . Years passed , cars came and went , for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , which was surprisingly under-powered , or a family Ford Falcon station wagon in New Zealand , before , on hitting the age of 40 , a throaty Ford Escort XR3i took me back in time to being a teenager again . Some guys dye their hair when the grey starts showing ; I bought a flashy , noisy car . I got over it . Flying may be quicker , but , anything to avoid the nightmare of an airport , a Renault 5 , complete with snow chains , carried us up into the Swiss Alps for skiing . After that it was on to Prague and beyond , along sometimes pot-holed roads to Poland 's border with the Ukraine in the months after communism evaporated in eastern Europe . 1981 ESCORT XR3i : On hitting the age of 40 , a throaty Ford Escort XR3i took me back in time to being a teenager again You see a lot and learn a lot more driving a car than you ever will sitting in a plane . Like many readers , I must have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ feeling safe and at home in the little enclosed world of one of my cars , and never once have I thought flying or a train might be preferable . With a car , you can always change your route , get off the beaten track or take your time . I 'm back in the armchair comfort of a Citroen , again now , a Picasso that I bought 14 years ago and which friends now class as vintage . Maybe it is , but then , so am I , which is probably why the idea of a self-drive car so appals me . I can see their advantages , the savings in fuel , whether petrol or electric , when all cars are working in perfectly computerised synchronicity . And I imagine stress and road rage will become aberrations of the past as , unhindered by the need to actually look where we 're going , we motor peacefully along into the future , reading , sleeping , working , making phone calls or watching TV . Then , on arrival at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and send it off to find somewhere to park itself . Actually , I quite fancy that last bit . But all the other stuff , which seems programmed to take the actual driving out of driving , the joy out of a journey , just is n't for me . I realise that , historically , I 'm just a blip in time who happened to come along in the mid-20th century when the internal combustion engine was making it possible for ordinary people to discover the instant freedom for travel and speed that had been denied for anyone born in an earlier age . And which , I now suspect , will soon be nigh on impossible for generations that follow . But all that sitting in a car finding ways to usefully fill my time while the onboard computer has all the fun ? Where 's the romance in that ? How do you imagine that you 're Jean-Paul Belmondo or even Toad of Toad Hall if you 're just a bored passenger being ferried around by a flipping computer .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'take the actual driving out of driving' and 'the joy out of a journey', where 'driving' and 'a journey' are not VP2[-ing] predicates but rather nouns. Additionally, there is no clear causer-causee relationship or a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the construction.

Driving is n't just about getting from here to there : it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's when we are most alive , when our senses are at their highest alert , when our eyes and ears are in perpetual communion with our fingers and feet . 1966 MG MIDGET : My first proper job resulted in an MG Midget at just the time that the M6 opened , and the big thrill then was going for dinner in a motorway caf ? that straddled the shining new road Sitting there , hands at ten to two , we survey everything that is in front , beside or behind us , as we judge to within inches the gaps between other vehicles , our feet working seemingly unconsciously as we brake or accelerate , our brains automatically calculating the camber of the road on long bends . And , no matter how loud the music to which we 're listening , our ears stay tuned to recognise the merest of unexpected rattles above the purr of the engine . ' What a piece of work is man ... this man , anyway , ' we want to congratulate ourselves as , like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ control , as we make our journeys . It 's an exulting sensation . I love driving . I love the romance and feel of it , the challenge every time I set off , the welcome tremor of power as the engine is switched on and the ignition sparks , the realisation of freedom to go absolutely anywhere I want to go . Do n't misunderstand me . I 'm not a car fanatic . I 've no idea how many ccs any of my cars has had . Nor do I know how cars work . I do n't need to know , as long as they do . I 've never read a motoring magazine or watched a single episode of Top Gear , and I 've no ambition to have a hundred thousand pounds worth of steel , rubber and glass sitting outside my house . It is n't the cars that I love : it 's the driving . It 's been this way since I was nine , when a very kind farmer hoisted me on to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ down the row , Raymond , ' as he climbed on to a device we were towing for planting turnips . 1962 ALVIS TB14 : My first car was a two-seater , red 1951 Alvis TB14 bought in 1962 after a summer working on a pea-viner machine on a farm Obviously , it was a two-man job , so I was suddenly a man . I 'd somehow already become the owner of a primitive , home-made version of a go-kart ( basically old pram wheels and a couple of planks of wood ) , but sitting there in rapt concentration as the diesel engine chugged us down the field and we edged forward at about 2 mph , was the real thing . Like Mr Toad in The Wind In The Willows , I was hooked . Dodgem cars at fairgrounds followed a few years later . With the electricity sparking and the rock and roll never louder or better , I would waltz around the arena , trying to dodge the other cars rather than bump into them . I wanted to drive , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in my mother 's Hillman Minx was the 1958 equivalent of an initiation ceremony , and not much has happened in my life since then that can compare with the euphoria of that day . Since then , my cars have been like the stages of manhood , as I 've slept in them , eaten in them , romanced in them , and had my heart broken in them . Mostly , though , I 've explored corners of my world in them . My first car was a two-seater , red 1951 Alvis TB14 bought in 1962 after a summer working on a pea-viner machine on a farm . I was 21 , and for a few delightful weeks , I drove around the small town in which I lived , elbow resting nonchalantly on the open window , fantasising that I looked like Roger Smith in the detective series 77 Sunset Strip . He was the handsome one who went on to marry the Swedish-born actress Ann-Margret . But the Alvis was a huge beast with dodgy suspension , and hopelessly impractical -- especially @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at university . I 'd fondly hoped it might be good for attracting girls , but one of the few I managed to take for a drive was very unimpressed when it stalled in Trafalgar Square . She was American , and , as I jumped out and used a starting handle to get it going again -- which took a little time , I admit -- she was consumed with laughter . It was like a scene from a Laurel and Hardy movie , she ridiculed : ' You looked as though you were winding it up ' -- which was n't the impression I 'd hoped to convey . I sold it the following summer to buy an airline ticket to New York , from where my friend Ian and I drove to Kansas delivering a clapped-out old Ford taxi to a farmer there . You could do that in those days , the small ad columns in the newspaper always looking for people to deliver cars across the country for them . It was a wonderful @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to look for America ' , rolling down the endless highways , and to hear America , too , as every small town had its own radio stations with ' Little Stevie Wonder ' , Trini Lopez and Peter , Paul and Mary accompanying us as we drove . My first proper job resulted in an MG Midget at just the time that the M6 opened , and the big thrill then was going for dinner in a motorway caf ? that straddled the shining new road . 1980 FORD FALCON : Years passed , cars came and went , for hire or buy , a two-seater Pontiac Firebird in Hollywood , which was surprisingly under-powered , or a family Ford Falcon station wagon in New Zealand This was Sixties ' sophistication with a schooner of sherry . Happy , carefree days . Empty roads , no 70 mph speed limit quite yet ( it was n't introduced until December 1965 ) and no telling what was beyond the asphalt horizon ahead . It turned out to be a Singer Chamois , which was a posh @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the MG when , now married , we had a baby and needed a back seat for the carry-cot . I 'd reached a new stage of manhood -- responsibility . As the numbers in our family grew , so did the size of our car . A Vauxhall Viva followed . I 'm embarrassed by that now . But then I got lucky and wrote a film called That 'll Be The Day and spent my first cheque on a white Citroen DS , which came not only with a radio but a built-in cassette player . Hi-tech had arrived . Big and floaty as a boat it was , and if I ever had a dream to live , this was it , as I would glide pneumatically around London , every bump ironed out . In my mind , I was now that smouldering French leading man Jean-Paul Belmondo , with The Eagles and Neil Young my soundtrack , and headlights that changed direction when I turned the steering wheel . Years passed , cars came and went , for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , which was surprisingly under-powered , or a family Ford Falcon station wagon in New Zealand , before , on hitting the age of 40 , a throaty Ford Escort XR3i took me back in time to being a teenager again . Some guys dye their hair when the grey starts showing ; I bought a flashy , noisy car . I got over it . Flying may be quicker , but , anything to avoid the nightmare of an airport , a Renault 5 , complete with snow chains , carried us up into the Swiss Alps for skiing . After that it was on to Prague and beyond , along sometimes pot-holed roads to Poland 's border with the Ukraine in the months after communism evaporated in eastern Europe . 1981 ESCORT XR3i : On hitting the age of 40 , a throaty Ford Escort XR3i took me back in time to being a teenager again You see a lot and learn a lot more driving a car than you ever will sitting in a plane . Like many readers , I must have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ feeling safe and at home in the little enclosed world of one of my cars , and never once have I thought flying or a train might be preferable . With a car , you can always change your route , get off the beaten track or take your time . I 'm back in the armchair comfort of a Citroen , again now , a Picasso that I bought 14 years ago and which friends now class as vintage . Maybe it is , but then , so am I , which is probably why the idea of a self-drive car so appals me . I can see their advantages , the savings in fuel , whether petrol or electric , when all cars are working in perfectly computerised synchronicity . And I imagine stress and road rage will become aberrations of the past as , unhindered by the need to actually look where we 're going , we motor peacefully along into the future , reading , sleeping , working , making phone calls or watching TV . Then , on arrival at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and send it off to find somewhere to park itself . Actually , I quite fancy that last bit . But all the other stuff , which seems programmed to take the actual driving out of driving , the joy out of a journey , just is n't for me . I realise that , historically , I 'm just a blip in time who happened to come along in the mid-20th century when the internal combustion engine was making it possible for ordinary people to discover the instant freedom for travel and speed that had been denied for anyone born in an earlier age . And which , I now suspect , will soon be nigh on impossible for generations that follow . But all that sitting in a car finding ways to usefully fill my time while the onboard computer has all the fun ? Where 's the romance in that ? How do you imagine that you 're Jean-Paul Belmondo or even Toad of Toad Hall if you 're just a bored passenger being ferried around by a flipping computer .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'brought out of' in a different context, referring to coming out of retirement due to injury, which does not involve a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

The wicketkeeper , brought out of impending retirement due to injury , added only one run to his overnight 84 to miss out on a maiden hundred for Yorkshire . There was to be no first innings lead , Yorkshire adding only 28 runs for the loss of their last three wickets on the third morning to finish on 320 in reply to Somerset 's 399 . And , after Somerset scored 339-7 declared in their second innings , there was to be no serious prospect of a Yorkshire win , the hosts closing on 8-2 in pursuit of 419 , heights they have never previously chased . Instead , on a day when there was to be no joy for Yorkshire either in their pursuit of former England batsman Ben Duckett , who rejected them in favour of a Notts club for whom he could make his debut against them at Trent Bridge next week , there was only the stark detail that Somerset have driven this match from the moment that they fell to 5-2 after being sent into bat . Since then , Yorkshire have been fighting valiantly but effectively playing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a victory in itself , perhaps , if they could somehow materialise with a share of the spoils , which would not only ease their relegation plight but also put a big dent in Somerset 's fading title ambitions , further dimmed by leaders Surrey 's innings win over Notts at the Oval . In glorious sunshine on the last day of August , there would have been no finer moment at Headingley this summer , or indeed a more popular centurion , had Hodd completed a three-figure score . Brought back from the second team match at Taunton after Jonny Tattersall suffered a back spasm , he had played splendidly on the second day to rescue Yorkshire in tandem with Tom Kohler-Cadmore after the hosts had slipped to 119-5 . But after David Willey fell in the morning 's third over , taking a step down the pitch to pace bowler Josh Davey and edging a booming drive to first slip , Hodd went in the next over when he too picked out first slip as he tried to work Lewis Gregory to leg . Chris Waters Hodd , who received a sympathetic hand as he left the field , has four first-class hundreds to his name , the highest an innings of 123 for Sussex against Yorkshire at Hove in 2007 . His highest score for Yorkshire remains the 96 not out that he made against Nottinghamshire at Scarborough in 2016 , and , in a batting line-up that has struggled for runs , he must surely come into contention to play as a specialist batsman for the rest of the season assuming that the gloves revert to Tattersall . After Willey 's dismissal had given Davey the first five-wicket haul of his career , the 28-year-old right-arm pace bowler finishing with 5-65 from 23 overs , Craig Overton rounded things off by having Jack Brooks caught at mid-on off a leading edge . It left Somerset with a 79-run lead with just over an hour left until lunch , time enough for Yorkshire to reduce them to 28-3 . Willey bowled Ed Bryom with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ -- fit to bowl despite the recurrence of a toe problem suffered on the opening day -- had Azhar Ali driving to cover , and Willey found Marcus Trescothick 's outside edge with Adam Lyth doing the rest at second slip . Lyth 's part-time off-spin was responsible for the fourth wicket , but not until the fourth over before the tea break after a fine stand of 135 between James Hildreth and Tom Abell . Hildreth , who scored 81 in the first innings , followed up with 72 before he was caught behind trying to chop through the offside . The fourth-wicket pair also ran well , forcing mistakes with their aggressive intent on a day when Yorkshire 's fielding was not at its sharpest , the hosts twice conceding four overthrows . After Steven Davies drove the fifth delivery after tea from Fisher to Lyth at slip , Abell and Lewis Gregory added 93 in 13 overs , Gregory thrashing 57 from 41 with three sixes before striking Willey to mid-on in the hunt for yet more rapid runs . Abell reached @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ celebrated it with a leaping fist pump , going on to an undefeated 132 and declaring as soon as Josh Shaw ran out last man Craig Overton . Gregory struck twice early in Yorkshire 's chase , bowling Harry Brook and having Lyth caught behind defending , to leave the hosts with a towering task . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'put themselves out of touching distance' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate, and there is no clear movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'touching distance' functions as a noun phrase complement of the preposition 'out of', similar to the examples in (7a) and (7b).

Kyle Walker 's first goal in almost three years broke Newcastle 's dogged resilience as Manchester City returned to winning ways . While normal service was not quite resumed in the 2-1 victory at the Etihad Stadium - this being their lowest winning margin at home since beating Chelsea 1-0 in March - it at least put Pep Guardiola 's side back on track after last week 's hiccup at Wolves . They remain two points behind Liverpool and Chelsea , who both have 100 per cent records after four matches , but it needed a bolt from the blue to do so . Despite Walker 's prowess as a marauding full-back his last goal came in November 2015 so to see him rifle home a 25-yard winner early in the second half was something of a surprise .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction with 'managed to talk herself out of sticking with'. It involves a reflexive NP object 'herself' which is coreferential with the subject, and the VP2[-ing] predicate 'sticking with' suggests a prevention interpretation where the subject is preventing herself from continuing with a certain action. This aligns with the atypical types of NP objects allowed in the construction as described in the sixth property.

In ' What Works For Me ' - a series of articles considering how we can find balance in our lives - we talk to people about their self-care strategies . If you 'd like to contribute your story , email us . Each day before work , Lucy Baines has a very particular ritual that she carries out without fail . " Every morning I have a coffee with my bees before I get ready for work , " explains the 42-year-old from Colchester . " I walk to the end of the garden with my dressing gown and wellies , cup of coffee in hand and just go and have a little sit with the bees before my day starts . It 's so nice , they do calm you , they 're quite hypnotising . I see what they 're up to and then come in . " This ritual began some two years ago when Lucy finally hit a wall and realised that she needed to do something different . Having tried a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ managed to talk herself out of sticking with ) she finally came across the idea of beekeeping . After a quick Google search she then found a 10-week course in Colchester and went for it . When the course finished she realised that there was one last hurdle to overcome . " It 's all well and good having done the course but it is very much a hands-on hobby , so I wanted to see if I could actually overcome a bit of a fear I had of bees , " she says . " So after doing the course I went out and inspected a few hives and I literally had the bug from then . " Lucy Baines For Lucy , beekeeping has hooked her not only because it 's a new challenge but because it 's one that takes up her attention all year round . " There 's always a little job for me to do , whether it 's reading up on something or thinking about the upcoming weeks and what the bees might need . " It 's also @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as little or as much as you want . While there is a thriving community of beekeepers in Essex , there 's never any pressure to become involved in the day-to-day . Lucy is a member of a WhatsApp group that share stories and advice , but she does n't feel the need to attend any of the weekly meetings that take place . Lucy Baines Beekeeping is n't just about the community though , for Lucy , the bigger challenges also provided her with a newfound sense of confidence that then spilled over into her everyday life . Native swarms occur naturally in the wild and for beekeepers , the sighting of a new one can present them with the opportunity to start a new hive . It 's a daunting task though for a newcomer and requires a cool head . " I was due to deliver some training at work and I was really worried about it , but once I 'd climbed up a 3.6m ladder and snipped down about an 8,000 strong swarm of bees , I thought ' I can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ' " she explains . The everyday act of beekeeping is considerably calmer than haring around the county chasing swarms of bees . During the day Lucy is a family liaison officer at a special needs school . It 's a full-on role which is why this everyday routine can be so rewarding . Lucy Baines " Everything 's got a name and everything 's got a purpose and everything has a role to play within the little beekeeping world , " she says . " It makes me think ' have I got all the right equipment ? ' , which I quite like , it clears my head from everything else and I just focus on the bees . " If you 're stressed and you 're banging around and you 're doing everything rushed you 'll disturb them , so I ca n't tend to the bees if I 'm not feeling great within myself , if I 've got a bit of a headache or whatever . It makes me sit down , take a moment and have a cup of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Beekeeping is n't an art that 's learnt by simply Googling , instead it 's something that 's handed down from person to person .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction with 'managed to talk herself out of sticking with'. It includes a reflexive NP object 'herself' which is coreferential with the subject, and the VP2[-ing] predicate 'sticking with' suggests a prevention interpretation where the subject is preventing herself from continuing with a certain action. This aligns with the atypical types of NP objects allowed in the construction as described in the sixth property.

In ' What Works For Me ' - a series of articles considering how we can find balance in our lives - we talk to people about their self-care strategies . If you 'd like to contribute your story , email us . Each day before work , Lucy Baines has a very particular ritual that she carries out without fail . " Every morning I have a coffee with my bees before I get ready for work , " explains the 42-year-old from Colchester . " I walk to the end of the garden with my dressing gown and wellies , cup of coffee in hand and just go and have a little sit with the bees before my day starts . It 's so nice , they do calm you , they 're quite hypnotising . I see what they 're up to and then come in . " This ritual began some two years ago when Lucy finally hit a wall and realised that she needed to do something different . Having tried a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ managed to talk herself out of sticking with ) she finally came across the idea of beekeeping . After a quick Google search she then found a 10-week course in Colchester and went for it . When the course finished she realised that there was one last hurdle to overcome . " It 's all well and good having done the course but it is very much a hands-on hobby , so I wanted to see if I could actually overcome a bit of a fear I had of bees , " she says . " So after doing the course I went out and inspected a few hives and I literally had the bug from then . " Lucy Baines For Lucy , beekeeping has hooked her not only because it 's a new challenge but because it 's one that takes up her attention all year round . " There 's always a little job for me to do , whether it 's reading up on something or thinking about the upcoming weeks and what the bees might need . " It 's also @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as little or as much as you want . While there is a thriving community of beekeepers in Essex , there 's never any pressure to become involved in the day-to-day . Lucy is a member of a WhatsApp group that share stories and advice , but she does n't feel the need to attend any of the weekly meetings that take place . Lucy Baines Beekeeping is n't just about the community though , for Lucy , the bigger challenges also provided her with a newfound sense of confidence that then spilled over into her everyday life . Native swarms occur naturally in the wild and for beekeepers , the sighting of a new one can present them with the opportunity to start a new hive . It 's a daunting task though for a newcomer and requires a cool head . " I was due to deliver some training at work and I was really worried about it , but once I 'd climbed up a 3.6m ladder and snipped down about an 8,000 strong swarm of bees , I thought ' I can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ' " she explains . The everyday act of beekeeping is considerably calmer than haring around the county chasing swarms of bees . During the day Lucy is a family liaison officer at a special needs school . It 's a full-on role which is why this everyday routine can be so rewarding . Lucy Baines " Everything 's got a name and everything 's got a purpose and everything has a role to play within the little beekeeping world , " she says . " It makes me think ' have I got all the right equipment ? ' , which I quite like , it clears my head from everything else and I just focus on the bees . " If you 're stressed and you 're banging around and you 're doing everything rushed you 'll disturb them , so I ca n't tend to the bees if I 'm not feeling great within myself , if I 've got a bit of a headache or whatever . It makes me sit down , take a moment and have a cup of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Beekeeping is n't an art that 's learnt by simply Googling , instead it 's something that 's handed down from person to person .

Keeping bees is n't what you 'd consider a mainstream hobby , and so unsurprisingly the reaction she got from her friends when she started was one of surprise .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'taking the easier way out of dropping down the levels or going out on loan' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a choice or manner of action, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A group of his former players wanted to take Stuart McCall out as a thank-you the day after he had been sacked by City . The well-publicised picture taken by a member of the bar staff in a Harrogate pub shows McCall surrounded by seven of the squad that he had taken to Wembley seven months earlier . An unusual occurrence in the cut-throat world of football to see an axed manager treated to a slap-up tea by his former charges . But an obvious indication of the close link between boss and players that remained to the very end and beyond . Now none of them remain at Valley Parade . Matt Kilgallon 's departure last week for Hamilton completed the set . It 's a bit disingenuous to claim that each of those players effectively put their head on the block after being seen to be siding so publicly with a former manager . Tony McMahon had already seen a January move to Scunthorpe blocked by the club , Rouven Sattelmaier effectively told @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ blunders during Colin Doyle 's absence and Billy Clarke , of course , had joined Charlton the previous summer . But Clarke mischievously flagging up that dinner again on Twitter in the light of Kilgallon 's exit just adds to the general suspicion that days were numbered from that point . Kilgallon would go on to sweep the board at the club 's awards night , a rare bright spot in the misery that descended on City 's season from the turn of the year . Few could have imagined his appearance on the final day at Scunthorpe would be his last competitive one for the club . When the defender trotted off the Valley Parade pitch just after the hour point against Sheffield United in pre-season , he was also signing off his two-year stint in claret and amber . Not that Kilgallon suspected it at the time either . Having started the most games in the squad last season , along with fellow centre half Nathaniel Knight-Percival , the 34-year-old confidently assumed he was still very much in the plans despite all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the bombshell came on the eve of the curtain-raiser at Shrewsbury when it was made clear that he would not be in the squad . That big call , contrary to popular belief , came from Michael Collins and not above . The new head coach wanted to stamp his own mark on things . Leaving out Kilgallon was a significant statement of his intent . Collins told the player that he was looking to take a different approach -- a consistent performer who was two years his senior did not feature in that . Kilgallon swallowed his disappointment and accepted the decision ; a new boss telling previously regular players they are suddenly no longer in the plans is a rockier part of the football landscape . But it 's the timing of the news that would have really stung , coming the day before the season was due to kick off after no previous indications . Kilgallon spent the first month on the outside looking in but there was no ruffling the dressing room . He trained , he kept fit and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The offer from Hamilton appealed straight away -- a new challenge to prove himself in a different league and country rather than taking the easier way out of dropping down the levels or going out on loan . Hamilton have a reputation for producing youngsters and selling them on . But it needs good old heads like Kilgallon around them . It will also open up opportunities of possibly becoming a coach when he eventually hangs up the boots . Preston manager Alex Neil and Swansea number two Billy Reid both cut their coaching teeth with the Accies . Present boss Martin Canning is only two years older than Kilgallon after making the step-up from a Hamilton player . That all came into the thinking with the move for a player who remained respectful to City to the end . Kilgallon was keen to say goodbye properly to the fans who voted him their top man last year and had backed him all the way from an injury-hit start through his time at Valley Parade . Yesterday 's open letter to supporters issued via @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I wanted to take this opportunity to speak directly with the fans and to say simply thank you . " Bradford City is a massive club and has some of the most passionate fans that I have ever played for . " It is my local club , yet you could be anywhere in the world and they would pop up , keen to make their pride and loyalty known to you . I loved that . " My family came to every home game and at a time when my son was just becoming old enough to fall in love with a club . " I will always be grateful for the memories he now has , of his dad playing for his team . He is a die-hard Bantam . " Playing at Valley Parade will remain amongst some of the proudest memories in my career . " If it 's possible to leave a club on a high , then I think seven Player of the Year awards will do and the fans and the players gave me those . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that reason , Bantams I thank you and wish you only the very best . You deserve it . " And somewhat ironically , Collins ' departure from Valley Parade was announced on the same day .

The sentence 'Millman was almost forced into retirement in 2011 after a serious shoulder injury ruled him out of competing for the rest of the season' is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction. It follows the structural pattern NP subject (a serious shoulder injury) + V1 (ruled) + NP object (him) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (competing for the rest of the season). It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, where the shoulder injury prevented Millman from competing. The verb 'ruled' fits into the category of exerting force or pressure, and the NP object 'him' functions as a causee.

Leroy San ? has been reinstated to Germany 's squad after his World Cup omission . Photograph : Andreas Gebert/Reuters Toni Kroos has criticised the attitude of Leroy San ? , claiming his Germany teammate 's body language suggests he does not care whether the national team win or lose . Germany host the world champions , France , on Thursday in the Uefa Nations League , their first outing since an early World Cup exit that has prompted extensive soul-searching .

Leroy San ? has been reinstated to Germany 's squad after his World Cup omission . Photograph : Andreas Gebert/Reuters Toni Kroos has criticised the attitude of Leroy San ? , claiming his Germany teammate 's body language suggests he does not care whether the national team win or lose .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject (Household names such as Tottenham 's Christian Eriksen , Chelsea 's Andreas Christensen and Leicester 's Kasper Schmeichel) + V1 (refused) + NP object (themselves) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (playing for their country). It also exhibits a prevention interpretation, where the action of refusing to sign an agreement prevents the players from playing for their country. Additionally, the NP object is a reflexive pronoun (themselves) coreferential with the subject, which is one of the atypical types allowed in the construction.

Denmark 's new makeshift side more than held their own in their first game , losing 3-0 in a brave , battling display in a friendly away to Slovakia last night . The national team , who are currently protesting against their own football association in a dispute over commercial image rights , fielded a practically unknown team . Household names such as Tottenham 's Christian Eriksen , Chelsea 's Andreas Christensen and Leicester 's Kasper Schmeichel refused to sign an agreement with the Danish FA , thus ruling themselves out of playing for their country . So the team that took to the field in Slovakia included a salesman at centre-forward , a YouTube content creator in midfield and a student at full-back . They were led by former Arsenal midfielder John Jensen , installed as interim boss by the Danish FA as they did n't want to forfeit the fixture , with Jensen admitting he only met most of the players for the first time on the journey to the game . But the likely lads certainly did n't disgrace themselves as they put in a resolute performance against a full-strength @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Marek Hamsik on board . Other teams may have crumbled after Adam Nemec put the hosts in front after just 11 minutes , but the Danes rallied superbly to hold their own , holding out until the 37th minute when Albert Rusnak nodded in a second for Slovakia . But the Danish defence proved to be a strength as they repelled waves of attacks in the second half , and they were only beaten once more when the unfortunate Adam Fogt put the ball into his own net in the 79th minute . World champions France face-off against Germany in Munich in the pick of the opening Nations League matches tonight . France have named much the same squad that won the World Cup , while Germany will hope to bounce back from their poor showing in Russia . |

Swansea 's Stan Brock has died at the age of 82 . In tribute , here is an interview we ran with him in 2009 . From growing up in a quiet residential street in Wales ' second city , he was reborn as a cowboy rustling 50,000 cattle across the South American savanna . His wildman antics wrestling giant anacondas on US TV wowed millions and made him a star way before the likes of crocodile hunter Steve Irwin . But at 72-year-old superman Stan Brock took on his biggest challenge yet , the might of the US medical health system . " Where are you calling from , Cardiff ? Mae hen wlad fy nhadau , kiddo ! " he chirps from the Tennessee Bible Belt headquarters of Remote Area Medical ( RAM ) , the non-profit organisation he set up in 1985 to provide free healthcare to remote regions of the world . Lancastrian by birth , he grew up in Uplands , Swansea , where he enjoyed learning Welsh at school but not , as he puts it in his typically no-nonsense fashion , " having the hell bombed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ At 16 he dropped out of boarding school on the Dorset coast to join his mum and dad abroad , the latter being a civil servant who ? ? ? d been posted to the northern coast of South America , these days known as Guyana . What would happen to him there is as amazing as it sounds unlikely , with Stan eventually running off to live as a ranch hand with the Wapishana Indians in the Amazon , on the largest tropical cattle ranch in the world . Stan on horseback in an episode of Mutual of Omaha 's Wild Kingdom ( Image : Video Still ) " As a boy I really wanted to join the Army or the Navy because I was really into all that stuff , but after I ? ? ? d got a ticket one summer holiday to join my folks all those miles away I knew what I had to do , " he said . " So I escaped to the Brazilian border to be a cowboy , except there the cowboys were really Indians . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ remote Amazon basin tribe that Stan became fluent in Portuguese , Spanish , and Wapishana ? ? " " Never did master Welsh though , " he jokes ? ? " as well as discovering a brand new species of vampire bat . It was also where he also came up with the humanitarian concept that would help shape the rest of his life . " I got given a horse to ride called Kang , which , as I found out all too late , is the Brazilian word for devil , " he laughed . " I also discovered that he ? ? ? d already killed two other cowboys , although that was n't until after he 'd bolted head-long into a tree with me on top of him . " All I can remember was waking up underneath it and being told by someone in the crowd that had gathered that the nearest doctor was a 26-day ride away . " It was about then I came up with the idea for RAM , " he laughed . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ provisions had a deadly serious side . " I survived malaria , dengue fever and numerous wild animal attacks and various encounters with longhorns and mustangs , all without the help of a doc , " recalled Stan . " Others were not so lucky and I buried a number of them . " Wrestling with an anaconda ( Image : Mutual of Omaha 's Wild Kingdom ) The ox-like disposition that enabled him to endure in the midst of such harsh terrain , along with his matter-of-fact manner of dealing with any ordeal , is no better illustrated than by the time he contracted a potentially fatal flesh-eating bug after being bitten by a sand fly in the 1950s . " It was inconvenient , but I got over it , " he shrugged . However , a decade later saw Stan become an unlikely TV personality when a wildlife photographer from US television network NBC turned up at the Wapishana ranch to spend several weeks filming local animals and spotted him . He ended up on the late ? ? ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that saw him dubbed the ' original crocodile hunter ' , chasing jaguar on horseback like some sort of naturalist daredevil . " They ? ? ? d seen me lassoing and asked if I would like to go on a trip to Africa to catch some of the big animals there on horseback , " said Stan . " I said , ' Hell , yes ! ' , packed up my saddle and more or less caught the next flight out . " Soon I was out in Africa wrangling wildebeest for a show that was watched by 33 million people in the USA every week . " Even now I get people telling me they grew up watching my antics on Wild Kingdom , and I also starred in some very bad Hollywood movies , like Escape From Angola . " They would n't win any Oscars but I enjoyed the experience , " he laughed , dismissing the whole period as his " frivolous years . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the many isolated Indian tribes who were almost wiped out through lack of medical care and he vowed to find a way to deliver basic medical aid to them . Stan in his faithful C-47 , which delivers medical supplies to the poorest US citizens , many of whom queue up for days for treatment ( Image : Video still ) So now he lives a solitary life of simplicity , hard work and sheer dedication to the cause of fulfilling that vow . Sleeping on the floor of the abandoned Knoxville schoolhouse he leases for a mere $1 , Stan rises at dawn , does two hours solid exercise , survives without heating or hot water and eats only a strict diet of rice beans , fruit , cereal and water . In line with that spare , militaristic lifestyle , he even carries out many of RAM ? ? ? s airlifts in an old C-47 plane that the Allies used during D-Day . With only a blind stray dog called Rambeau for company , Stan has no family , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mission which , ironically , has now turned its attention to the people of his adopted homeland . Despite living in the richest , most powerful nation in the world , he says that a frightening 47 million Americans are without health insurance , leaving them just as helpless in the face of serious illness as the most far-flung rainforest dwellers . " Now 60% of our work takes place in rural and urban US areas , it 's true , " sighed Stan , admitting that the 12 weekend clinics he schedules around the States each year usually end up doubling to 24 . " Most people have to wonder what would happen to them if they had a heart attack or a car crash because they can ? ? ? t afford the cover ? ? " and that ? ? ? s a very weighty thing to have constantly playing on your mind . " So with the help of a legion of American and Canadian doctors and dentists happy to volunteer their time and expertise , RAM will set up in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and assistance to whoever needs it . And given the thousands that turn up each year ? ? " entire families driving hundreds of miles , sleeping rough in their cars overnight to be seen ? ? " that need is great . " We go wherever the need is greatest , wherever people are in pain , need teeth pulled , new glasses and we give that to them on a first come , first served basis , " said Stan . " Everything we have is donated and everyone who helps is a volunteer ? ? " I wish I could say we get some sort of corporate funding but we don ? ? ? t . " The government does n't offer us a dime and I would n't ask , " he added , irked . " We rely entirely on the generosity of the public , those that send us those little cheques for $5 here , $10 there , and , believe me , we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they ? ? ? ll go . " Stan at RAM 's Tennesse HQ , in a scene from the documentary Medicine Man ( Image : Video still ) And , although he knows he can ? ? ? t see everyone that needs his help , Stan is n't going to stop trying . " This is my passion , the most important thing in my life , " he said . " I don ? ? ? t need the fancy lifestyle I had whilst in the limelight . " When I worked as a cowboy I used to roll a horse blanket on the ground and sleep on it . " That ? ? ? s how I live my life now and I would n't have it any other way . " |

Photograph : JMS **28;456;TOOLONG As Harry Kewell namechecks the successful managers who have influenced him -- including Rafael Ben ? tez , George Graham and Frank Rijkaard -- he says his own ideas about football boil down to " putting people in the right positions " . That invites many follow-up questions , especially : why has he agreed to put himself in the position of managing Notts County , bottom of League Two ? He could , after all , have stayed at Crawley Town where , after an impressive stint as Watford 's under-23 coach , he began his senior managerial career last season in a way that ensured he gets a mention whenever talk turns to the most promising young managers in English football . The Australian , who turns 40 this month , improved Crawley 's results while introducing an exciting style . That attracted many admirers , including the Notts County owner , Alan Hardy , who appointed Kewell @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Nolan . Kewell will take charge of his first league game with County at Exeter City on Saturday , having begun his reign on Tuesday with a defeat by Grimsby Town in the Checkatrade Trophy . He says the club has big potential and he -- and his players -- are encouraged by his start . Read more " It 's a great opportunity to be able to stamp my authority down on to the players and get them playing the right way , " Kewell says . " These players want to play . We even had a few of them come and say : ' It was a breath of fresh air to be able to sit there and have that confidence again . ' If we can have time , then we 'll be able to put things right and get things moving . " He is under no illusions about how much time he is likely to get . Nolan , even younger than Kewell , made a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ County to the League Two play-offs but that did not save him from being jilted five matches into this campaign . " As players we know we 're in danger of getting dropped if we do n't perform because there 's another world-class player behind you and then you 'll be on the bench and it 's the same thing with managers now . People want quick turnarounds . You have to be lucky . But the only way to get lucky is through hard work . " He says he has long been interested in coaching and has benefited from guidance from some greats . " I was always a player that played the way I wanted to play but I listened to my managers , " the former Leeds , Liverpool , Galatasaray and Australia winger says . " If he told me to stand in one spot for 90 minutes , I 'd stand in one spot . I 'd question it , of course , but if he came up with the perfect reason why , then I would do it . I enjoyed the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " He offers praise for Graham , Ben ? tez , Paul Hart and Guus Hiddink but reserves special acclaim for Rijkaard , with whom he worked for a season at Galatasaray . " His mind just expanded that little bit wider and he made me see things that I did n't see . I would always look at situations in football and try to take it two or three moves ahead or back . But he 'd probably go four or five to get another angle , position or movement into it . I just wish I had more time to have learned from him . " Now Kewell is the teacher . But he will benefit from input not only from the assistant who has come with him from Crawley , Warren Feeney , but also from one of his mentors because Hart was appointed as County 's technical director this week . That rekindles a partnership that began when Kewell came to England as a teenager , joining Leeds ' academy and winning the 1997 FA Youth Cup under Hart . " We have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " He taught me a lot when I first came over to the country ... how to adapt and really improve my game . " There were signs even against Grimsby that Kewell 's new charges are responding to him -- they were snappier on the ball without taking shortcuts in the form of hoofs downfield . How long will it take for Kewell 's teaching to bear fruit ? " It depends how quickly they want to learn , " he says . " I mean , it 's not a difficult thing , football . You get told a role and you have to do it . I do n't like to restrict them when they go forward because I do n't think you can tell people how to score goals or play balls -- you can give them options but it 's got to be down to their knowledge how they finish off a move . It 's about putting people in the right positions . " But my time at Crawley and my time here so far shows me that every single @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ give them information and teach them a few little things here and there it 's the perfect way to get a better team and also better players . " I feel now I get more pleasure out of putting on sessions and getting ideas into the squad , and seeing them doing it at the weekend . " I enjoyed my career as a player , it had its ups and downs , but now I really enjoy the next phase of my life . I throw all my heart and soul into it and I 'm looking forward to the challenges ahead . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'takes the stress out of letting your property' does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a general benefit or relief from a situation, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Sadiq Khan has praised the work being done by local groups in Tower Hamlets to tackle the root causes of homelessness such as poverty , but warned that incoming universal credit changes would have particularly negative consequences for the borough . The Mayor outlined his concerns , after highlighting cases of landlords deciding not to take on tenants in receipt of benefits , leading to a paucity of homes being available for benefit claimants . He said : " We need to persuade landlords to realise there are reasons why people fall into arrears in relation to the delays with Universal Credit . " He highlighted how Universal Credit pilots in Tower Hamlets had bought into sharp focus the problems with the system . He said : " I 've written to the government and asked them to pause on rolling out universal credits , because I 've seen in areas like Tower Hamlets the consequences of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " That delay leads to people getting into arrears when it comes to rents that can lead to you being made homeless . " The Mayor said he was really impressed by the role played not only by Tower Hamlets council but also of community groups , including charities and food banks , to help those who fall on hard times . He praised diversity as one of the key strengths of Tower Hamlets and hoped cohesion in the borough would not be undermined by inequality . He said : " What I do n't want is a city where we have only the rich living in inner London with the poor living in outer London . " Are you a landlord looking for a fixed rental income , paid whether the property is empty or not ? Steve Westley , general manager at estate agents Elliot Leigh , explains their Guaranteed Rent Scheme and how it takes the stress out of letting your property . |

Jurgen Klopp requires key characteristics in a player if they are to thrive under his management at Liverpool , and Andy Robertson ticks every box emphatically . Remember the general air of apathy that greeted the signing of Robertson in July 2017 ? A Scottish left-back signed from relegated Hull City ? ? " his arrival was never exactly going to lead to supporters bunking off work to celebrate the news . After taking time to find his feet , with Alberto Moreno preferred until the early part of the winter , the 24-year-old has never looked back . The Reds ' most consistent performer since December , Robertson was one of Europe 's most influential full-backs during the Champions League run last season . Defensively he barely put a foot wrong , while his attacking surges down the left flank played a key role in Sadio Mane being able to shine more centrally , as well as offering his own threat going forward . In the space of a year , Robertson has gone from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one of the most popular players at the club . While his footballing ability has indisputably played a major role in this , there is so much more that has afforded him such cult status already . There are clear values that Klopp demands from his players , with their talent as an individual only a portion of what the manager is interested in . He acquires the services of good human beings with a fantastic work ethic , an understanding of the club they are playing for and a genuine humility . Robertson , perhaps more than any other signing during Klopp 's tenure , feels like the poster boy for the manager 's ideal footballer . A down-to-earth lad from Glasgow , Liverpool 's No. 26 remains best friends with his schoolmates and seemingly has n't allowed fame to affect him one iota . Off the pitch , Robertson is a hugely likeable individual with personality and warmth , recently highlighted in an amusing video with James Milner , in which they dissected some of the more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the culture of Liverpool , ' getting ' exactly what it means to represent such a great club . In the fourth and final part of Jeff Goulding 's must-read interview with John Barnes , the Reds legend spoke about the characteristics required to succeed at Anfield : " You couldn ? ? ? t come to Liverpool with a superstar mentality , or believing you were better than anyone else in the team , or in the city . And I liked that . " I like the fact that people don ? ? ? t look up to you like you ? ? ? re a god . They treat you like a normal person and I like to think that I am a normal person . " For me , I want a normal life and life in Liverpool and Merseyside is a normal life . I want my children to be brought up in that environment . " That could easily have been Robertson doing the talking , with his level-headed style a big part of why he has become so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ put his fame to excellent use , using it to benefit others and further enhancing his reputation at the same time ? ? " not that that is his intention . He has donated to local food banks , and gave one food bank-supporting youngster a signed shirt , as a thank you for his contribution . In typically modest fashion , however , he gave the young fan a Roberto Firmino jersey instead , because " no one wants the left-back 's shirt . " Robertson is class personified and he embodies the type of character Klopp has spent his managerial career regularly cultivating . Assessing the other names who have moved to Anfield since the German arrived on these shores it is clear there is a specific type . Salah , for example , recently donated a signed shirt to a BOSS Night auction in support of the Sean Cox medical fund , while Jordan Henderson made a similar gesture to Prescot Cables following the tragic death of Reds supporter Jack Riding . " Jack was just 18 years old and as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dad , and family and friends , " the captain wrote in his programme notes last month . " Their feeling of loss is unimaginable , but I hope they are able to take some comfort from the tributes that have been paid to Jack by the Merseyside football community and the love that has come their way . " Trent Alexander-Arnold , a Scouser born and raised in West Derby , regularly uses his social media accounts to connect with fans , including sending a shirt to young leukaemia sufferer Devon Baker . Robertson is one of a host of strong characters in Klopp 's squad , going to great lengths to absorb himself into the club and making the most out of playing for such a special footballing institution . Robertson was announced as Scotland 's new permanent captain this month ? ? " something he described as " the pinnacle of my career . " It is a richly deserved honour for a player who possesses great leadership skills , from offering encouragement to team-mates to proving @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Looking ahead , there is no reason why Robertson can not end up skippering Liverpool one day , once Henderson has moved on from his current duties . There are strong alternatives in that role , from Van Dijk to Alexander-Arnold , but the Reds favourite has to be considered a front-runner . It has been a quite remarkable rise for Robertson , who back in 2012 famously took to Twitter to declare : " Life at this age is rubbish with no money #needajob . " Stints at Queen 's Park and Dundee United eventually led to a move south of the border , where he shone for three seasons at Hull . He caught the eye of Klopp , and despite others turning their nose up at the move , he became the latest top-class Scot to play for Liverpool . In such a short space of time he has gone from a teenager ruing his financial situation to one of the Reds ' key men and his country 's skipper . It could n't have happened to a more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is only just getting started at Liverpool . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate).

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a player making a goal out of nothing, which does not involve a causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Martin Allen says that the rot has stopped after a 0-0 draw with Dover who have the division 's worst defence . Ok The Blues had chances and hit the bar and post in the dying seconds but the opinion amongst the fans is the performance and style of play and general inability to string passes together is cause for real concern . Chesterfield managed to play well for the first 15 minutes of the second half and then again for the last five minutes , which is not enough to win matches . This week 's depressing statistic is it 's now 481 minutes since Chesterfield managed to score a goal in the non-league . We actually managed not to let a goal in , although our defence did grant the now obligatory free header to the opposition , Dover were actually so bad with only one man up front , they could barely mount an attack for the majority of the game . It 's rather depressing when the biggest cheers of the game were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , a man whose name must have commentators salivating for a yellow or red card awarded against him . So where now ? The club has a bid in for a player we can only hope it 's either a midfielder who can pass the ball or a striker who can make a goal for himself out of nothing . Fans are currently debating exactly what our best line up is or even if we have players who can fit into each position or even if there is any line up which can possibly work . You have to have some sympathy for Gozie Ugwu , It seems that Martin Allen placed faith in our striker who has never yet hit the net for Chesterfield , it 's just not working for him . When Ugwu actually tried a shot from 30 yards there were fans in the west stand sarcastically cheering the fact that he 'd had an attempt on goal , it 's 10 games and no goals so far for Ugwu in our colours . The only alternative is to replace him @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a striker either . Let 's not forget that Martin put together a side that he claimed at the start of the season were good enough to get promoted , well that 's gone and now it looks like he 's onto plan B. The only player that 's shown consistency is Charlie Carter and we have n't won since he was injured , hopefully his return will instigate a revival . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'gets a thrill out of shouting "FUS!"' involves the verb 'get' with an NP object 'a thrill', but it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the NP object 'a thrill' does not function as a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

Part of the appeal of The Elder Scrolls : Legends is simple brand recognition . A part of my brain just likes to hear familiar characters recite their battlecries when they are summoned , and gets a thrill out of shouting " FUS ! " at a mudcrab . But back when Legends launched , that feeling was tempered by disappointment -- not in the game , which is more interesting mechanically speaking than its Healthy Sibling , but in its artwork . A few too many of those cards depicted characters in cliched RPG sourcebook poses : illuminated by things that glowed with generic mysticism , holding their signature weapon while frozen awkwardly mid-attack , that kind of thing . Fortunately , each expansion has made Legends look a bit more distinctive . It 's not always been a smooth transition . A couple of the cards added by Heroes of Skyrim got the number of legs dragons have wrong ( they 're supposed to have two ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ look anything like he does in the game . Then again , that expansion also gave us Prized Chicken , which summons a full lane of Angry Villagers when destroyed . The Clockwork City and Houses of Morrowind expansions continued adding oddities like the Mudcrab Merchant and the Sheepish Dunmer ( who is summoned by Stolen Pants , and hides in the water until they are returned to him ) . Alternate card art for Laaneth , the elf companion from the singleplayer storyline , has her corrupted by clockwork , while an alternate version of the Grisly Gourmet given away as a login reward on Valentine 's Day shows the chef who transforms your enemies into sweetrolls giving an eerie grin . A few of the dark elf cards are just people lit by glowing things , but on the whole it 's been a huge improvement that bodes well for the Isle of Madness expansion .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'take some of the hassle out of acquiring targets' involves 'out of' followed by a gerund, but the NP object 'some of the hassle' does not function as a causee, and there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Independent councillor Jarlath Tinnelly , who witnessed wreaths being desecrated at the site of the IRA murder of 18 soldiers at Narrow Water , near Warrenpoint in Co Down . Police are treating the act of vandalism as a hate crime Wreaths , crosses and written tributes were vandalised at Narrow Water , near Warrenpoint in Co Down where a British Army convoy was ambushed by two roadside bombs in August , 1979 .

Councillor Jarlath Tinnelly said he was driving past on the other side of the road on Saturday afternoon when he witnessed the incident unfolding , as a crowd of men gathered at the front of a parked bus . " There were three or four men ripping at the Poppy wreaths , " he told the Press Association . " The anniversary of Narrow Water was only a couple of weeks ago , so that stuff would have been fresh and new and replaced as it is every year . " There were boys just ripping them off and kicking them around as if they were playing about with them in the school yard - it was absolutely incredible to see . " The most shocking thing of the whole lot was the brazenness of it . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ past and the perpetrators absolutely unconcerned about who was watching them and who was seeing this going on . " New wreaths were erected on Sunday morning by a group dedicated to protecting the memorial . Mr Tinnelly , who said he did not make the connection the men might have been football fans , said he had no hesitation reporting the matter straight to police . " I am a local councillor and I feel like I have a civic responsibility when I come across this and I have no hesitation in calling it out as I see it , " he said . " What I saw yesterday was a hate crime in action . " I condemn that in the strongest possible terms . That level of intolerance and disrespect in normal society in 2018 is just unacceptable .

Club chairman Gerard Lawlor said : " I totally condemn any act of desecration . We live in a sad society where anyone would get a kick out of desecrating a memorial . " If anyone connected with our Club has any information about the incident then they should report it to the PSNI . This pathetic act is n't in my name nor that of Cliftonville Football Club .

The sentence 'Again , if you make this automatic by setting up " auto-increase , " you wo n't forget to up your contributions , or talk yourself out of setting aside a larger chunk.' involves the transitive out of -ing construction. It follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'you' is the NP subject, 'talk' is the V1, 'yourself' is the NP object (a reflexive pronoun coreferential with the subject), and 'setting aside a larger chunk' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. This example also fits the prevention interpretation, as the subject is preventing themselves from setting aside a larger chunk by means of talking.

About two-thirds of American adults are concerned about not having enough money for retirement . According to personal finance site NerdWallet , which surveyed 2,000 U.S. adults in June 2018 , " only 32 percent of Americans say they 're confident they 'll have enough money saved for retirement by their desired retirement age based on their current rate of savings . " The concern makes sense when you look at the numbers : Americans have an average of $84,821 saved for retirement , and about a third of Americans have less than $5,000 socked away . How do you know how much money is enough to last through your golden years ? The answer is highly personal and depends on your lifestyle and spending habits , but there are a few basic guidelines to follow if you want to retire comfortably . For starters , many experts , including co-founder of AE Wealth Management David Bach , say that if you set aside at least 10 percent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be fine . More is better : Bach adds that if you want to retire " rich , " save 15 to 20 percent and , if you want to retire early , save 20 percent or more . According to retirement-plan provider Fidelity Investments , a good rule of thumb is to have 10 times your final salary in savings if you want to retire by age 67 . Fidelity also suggests a timeline to use in order to get to that magic number : By age 30 : Have the equivalent of your starting salary saved By age 35 : Have two times your salary saved By age 40 : Have three times your salary saved By age 45 : Have four times your salary saved By age 50 : Have six times your salary saved By age 55 : Have seven times your salary saved By age 60 : Have eight times your salary saved By age 67 : Have 10 times your salary saved Determining how much you 'll need all boils down to what you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it will cost to fund it . Tony Robbins , best-selling author of " Money : Master the Game , " factors that into his simple , two-step formula for finding your " magic number " : Determine how much money it takes to maintain your lifestyle . " To clarify , this is not how much you earn , but how much you spend , " Robbins notes on his blog . For example : " If you make $100,000 but live off of $80,000 , then this number would be $80,000 . " Multiply that number by 20 . Once you have a number in mind , you can start working towards reaching that goal . The simplest starting point is to invest in your employer 's 401(k) plan , a tax-advantaged retirement savings account , or other retirement savings accounts , such as a Roth IRA or traditional IRA . No matter how you choose to save , the most important step is to open at least one account . Next , follow these three steps so your money can grow @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . If you 're funding a 401(k) , the contribution limit for 2018 is $18,500 for workers under age 50 . If you 're funding a Roth IRA or traditional IRA , the maximum yearly contribution is $5,500 for workers under age 50 . Automate your contributions . Have your employer do a payroll deduction or have your money taken out of your checking account and sent straight to your retirement account . After all , you ca n't spend money you never see . Get in the habit of upping your savings consistently . Do this every six months , at the end of each year or whenever you get a raise . Again , if you make this automatic by setting up " auto-increase , " you wo n't forget to up your contributions , or talk yourself out of setting aside a larger chunk . Do n't miss : Here 's how much money Americans have in their 401(k)s at every age |

Cliftonville Football Club say they would ban any supporters " convicted " of involvement in damaging poppy wreaths at Narrow Water in County Down . Police have said Saturday 's incident is being treated as a hate crime . Eighteen soldiers were killed in two IRA bomb attacks at the site near Warrenpoint in August 1979 .

It is understood the damage happened on Saturday at about 17:20 BST . The wreaths have since been replaced .

While this is effective in preventing entry to games at our ground , we would call on all Irish League Clubs , the Northern Ireland Football League and the Irish Football Association to help and support us in preventing all banned persons from entering all football grounds , " the statement " We also ask that the existing legislation in regards to Football Banning Orders is more readily applied .

Everyone was a leading character , " costume designer Mary E Vogt tells Vogue of dressing the vast cast of Crazy Rich Asians . " Not one person played a supporting role . " How did Vogt , whose CV includes styling jobs on the Men in Black trilogy and , more recently , Kong : Skull Island , even begin to delve into the complex power play of the clothes worn by Asia 's elite ? She called on every local designer in Kuala Lumpur and Singapore , where the film was shot , for help . " In those cities people wear Western clothes with Asian flare and unique colour combinations , " Vogt tells Vogue . " Bringing that subtlety to the film was key . " The likes of Neil Felipp , who designed Astrid Young Teo 's purses ; Micheal Cinco , the creator of Princess Intan 's dress for the wedding scene ; and Lords 1974 , the tailors behind most of the men 's suiting , provided the foundations for each cast @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in celebration of the region 's talent , but also because major design houses would not let Vogt loan current-season pieces for longer than a few days . " Designer dresses have dates all over the word , it 's impossible to keep them in one place for three weeks ! " Vogt laughs now as she recalls the couture pieces that got stuck in customs . Warner Bros Ralph & Russo , Elie Saab and Marchesa all stepped up to challenge , and Ralph Lauren shipped 30 dresses over to Vogt for an entire month . Every single one features in the film . It was Astrid ( Gemma Chan ) and her Dior habit that took a " big chunk out of the budget " , Vogt notes . " She wears a lot of it , and we had to pay full price for everything . " ByKatie Berrington Warner Bros With big brands at stake -- and an allowance to be conscious of -- the actors @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " If the costume does n't relate to the character , it looks like a paper doll hanging on the actor , " Vogt asserts . " You can tell by the actor 's body language whether something works or not . " Michelle Yeoh , who plays Eleanor Young , worked closely with Vogt 's department because " she wanted to give depth to the character , without looking too severe . " Accordingly , the graphic silhouettes that become her signature come with a softer undertone . When Eleanor has a face-off with Rachel Chu ( Constance Wu ) over a game of mahjong at the end of the film , the sculptured Armani suit she wears is pin-striped , but in the finest cream fabric . The Elie Saab gown Eleanor wears to the wedding , meanwhile , was loaned specifically for Yeoh because of her close relationship with the house . Warner Bros Characters , including Eleanor , were also restricted to the colours that director Jon M Chu imagined them in . " He always thought that emerald green would be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he also referenced fairytales in terms of the characters ' colour palettes . When Rachel and Nick Young ( Henry Golding ) are in New York she wears a lot of black , white and grey clothing . In Singapore , an explosion of colour , like the Wizard of Oz , occurs . " Her outfits are also more ethereal looking , with chiffons and small floral patterns , because we wanted her to look vulnerable and out of her element -- like she 's a little off her game , " Vogt adds . Warner Bros ByAlice Newbold At times , Vogt had to play up to these outward manifestations of each character . " Romantic comedies move so quickly . I had to make it look vibrant -- so the audience liked the visuals -- and differentiate between each person in an almost exaggerated way . " She refers to Peik Lin Goh ( Awkwafina ) , who looks almost like an anim ? character @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has " an insane ' 60s ' do " simply because every actor had to have a completely different hairstyle . Warner Bros Rachel was the hardest character for her to crack , but the simple tactic of removing the sleeves from most of her outfits made her look instantly more innocent and suited to the role . The Cinderella moment at the end of the film , where Rachel makes heads turn wearing Marchesa at the wedding , was born out of a picture Wu sent Vogt of her in a light blue evening gown IRL . " I looked everywhere . I had 10 other dresses from Dior , Valentino , everywhere ! And then Marchesa let us have a similar dress . " Once Vogt had removed the " giant sleeves and tons of material " to ensure that Wu did n't get overpowered by tulle , it was the delicate , dream-like dress they had worked so hard to secure for the scene-defining film . The actual wedding gown of Araminta Lee ( Sonoya Mizuno ) , in contrast , was a local commission @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ weeks . There was no other option to fall back on if the beading was not done in time . Warner Bros Even Vogt could n't imagine the reception the film would get globally . Aside from the box office success that the low-to-medium-budget romcom garnered , she has been wowed by the personal stories that have come out of seeing her work . " Someone made a replica of Rachel 's Cinderella dress for her daughter and it was adorable , " she shares .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('they were shut out of learning'). It has a prevention interpretation, where the subject (the ads) prevents the object (women) from learning about the jobs and opportunities. The verb 'shut' fits into the category of exerting force or pressure.

The American Civil Liberties Union ( ACLU ) on Tuesday submitted a complaint to the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ( EEOC ) alleging that Facebook 's advertising system allows employers to target job ads based on gender - a practice the ACLU says is illegal . Specifically , the complaint refers to three women in the states of Ohio , Pennsylvania and Illinois who were not shown advertisements for what have traditionally been considered male-dominated professions . The complaint highlights 10 different employers who posted job adverts on Facebook - for roles such as mechanic , roofer and security engineer - but used the social network 's targeting system to control who saw the ad . In one example , that targeting meant one job was promoted to " men " who were " ages 25 to 35 " , and lived @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Earlier this year the investigative journalism site released a tool which readers could use to collect data on the Facebook ads they had seen , and send that information directly to ProPublica for analysis . Using that method , the site said it discovered men were targeted specifically in dozens of cities around the US for driving jobs with Uber . This conclusion was based on 91 ads placed by Uber 's recruitment arm , only one of which was targeted specifically at women , with three not targeting any particular gender . The rest were designed to be seen by men only . In a statement , Uber said : " We use a variety of channels to reach prospective drivers - both offline and online - with the goal of enabling more people , not fewer , to earn on their own schedule . " However , this data should be treated with caution . It is not clear that any broad conclusions can be made about perceived discrimination on Facebook . While one advertisement in isolation may be targeting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ targeting women running in the same time frame - ads that may not have been picked up by ProPublica 's tool . Furthermore , if a user clicks on an ad to see why it has been targeted - as in the ACLU complaint - they will be told why they specifically saw the ad , but not details on the entire audience for the ad . The BBC understands Facebook is in the process of putting together data to dispute the findings and respond to the ACLU 's complaint . While targeting users based on gender may seem relatively harmless when it comes to , for instance , clothing brands , doing so for job advertisements may be against US law . The Civil Rights Act of 1964 specifically prohibits discriminating against a person because of " race , colour , religion , sex , or national origin " . The law applies to every stage of employment , including recruitment . Image copyrightGetty ImagesImage caption Facebook said it was looking into the complaint " When employers in male-dominated fields advertise their jobs only to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , " said Galen Sherwin , from the ACLU 's Women 's Rights Project , arguing that " non-binary " people , those who choose not to identify with a specific gender , are also excluded . " What 's more , clicking on the Facebook ads brought viewers to a page listing numerous other job opportunities at these companies for which job seekers might be qualified . " Because no women saw these ads , they were shut out of learning not only about the jobs highlighted in the ads , but also about any of these other opportunities . " Facebook said it was reviewing the ACLU 's complaint and looked forward to " defending our practices " . " There is no place for discrimination on Facebook , " said spokesman Joe Osborne . " It 's strictly prohibited in our policies , and over the past year , we 've strengthened our systems to further protect against misuse . " The company has recently removed over 5,000 targeting options for advertisers . The move was prompted by a lawsuit accusing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sexual orientation . |

BOLTON 'S two tallest chimneys were once the one at Barrow Bridge and the Blinkhorn 's chimney said to be , at one time , the tallest in England . Barrow Bridge , which was part of the Ainsworth bleach works , stood 306 feet high and was built in 1863 . In 1924 it was reduced to 288 feet , in 1945 to 252 feet and in 1995 to 246 feet . This chimney is still standing . It was built to get boiler smoke and soot well away from the freshly bleached cloth of the bleach works , explains Terry Higginson writing in Halliwell Little Piecer Magazine for Halliwell Local History Society . Once the chimney was built the success was marked with trips to the top by local dignitaries of the time . Blinkhorn 's in Bradley Fold built the chimney in 1842 as a way to dispose of gaseous waste without poisoning the people of Bolton . A 190ft chimney had proved unsatisfactory to the council , explains Terry , so it was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ incredible 900,000 bricks and 120 tons of stone were used in its construction which was completed in 16 weeks . " Celebrations on completion of construction included the hoisting of a brass band to the top by means of the hoist in the centre of the chimney which also listed 3,400 members of the public , four at a time , to view the town . " A display of fireworks was also staged at the top of the chimney . " Artist Selim Rothwell set up his easel to paint the view towards the town . " In 1897 the chimney was illuminated by electric arc lights as part of the town 's diamond jubilee celebrations . " Within just a few years of completing this record breaking chimney the company became insolvent possibly because of the extortionate cost to the company of the chimney and Dobson and Barlow moved into the premises . The chimney was 367.5 feet high when in its prime and in 1909 was reduced to 326.5 and in 1940 to 150 feet and in 1967 it was demolished @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hundreds of years as they powered the various factories that lined the streets . While their incredible architecture could be much admired by many the plumes of smoke omitted from them were not and at times the town was bathed in what looked very much like fog . Boltonians were proud of their industrial heritage -- particularly the prolific cotton industry -- but by the 1960s and 1970s this was in serious decline and many factories were going out of business . This brought hardship to many families who had relied on the industry for employment for generations . Famous charismatic Bolton steeplejack Fred Dibnah made a business out of bringing down all the old industrial chimneys that were no longer needed . Barrow Bridge chimney remains standing proudly close to Moss Bank Park and remains safe in the knowledge it was the tallest chimney in Lancashire .

Vipassana , which originated in India more than 2,500 years ago by Gotama Buddha , according to Lapping , is the path to " mental purification . " However , to reap the rewards of the practice , " rigorous mental training " is required - including a mandatory 10-day course that involves no speaking . The point of the intense meditation is to develop one 's mind-body connection - and learn to focus on simply observing , rather than reacting . During the course , meditation makes up the majority of the day , only broken up with regularly interspersed tea and food breaks . At 9.30pm , students retire to their rooms to sleep - required rest for the 4am wake-up bell . According to Lapping , the experience and the various techniques taught over the course of the 10-day period " consequently leads to a balanced mind - and happiness . " We come out of suffering , " he said . And the practice is " for anyone , " according to the experts - however , Smith acknowledged that it is a " rigorous experience " and " in that sense , it is not for everyone . " " You have to be of stable physical and mental health to start doing that mental surgery , " he said . In addition to cutting oneself off from the people inside the course , the course also requires no outside communication via phones or computers as well as no killing , stealing , sexual activity , lying , or intoxicants . Physical contact is prohibited , as is any non-verbal communication between students , according to the Code of Discipline section of the website .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'state schools' (NP subject) + 'allow' (V1) + 'pupils' (NP object) + 'out of studying a language' (VP2[-ing]). It also induces a prevention interpretation, as the schools are preventing pupils from studying a language by allowing them to opt out. The verb 'allow' fits into the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot by means of nonspecific means (e.g., lead). The NP object 'pupils' functions as a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'studying a language'.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject (over a third of state schools) + V1 (allow) + NP object (pupils) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (studying a language at this age). It also induces a prevention interpretation, where the schools are preventing pupils from studying a language by allowing them to opt out. The verb 'allow' fits into the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot by means of exerting force or pressure, understood metaphorically. The NP object 'pupils' functions as a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Prosecutors have asked a US judge to sentence Bill Cosby to five to 10 years in prison for drugging and sexually assaulting a woman . The defence argued that the 81-year-old comedian is too old and helpless to do time behind bars . " What does an 81-year-old man do in prison ? " defence lawyer Joseph Green asked on day one of the sentencing hearing for Cosby , who is legally blind and dependent on others . Sorry , this content is n't available on your device . " How does he fight off the people who are trying to extort him , or walk to the mess hall ? " Mr Green suggested that Cosby instead be put on something akin to house arrest . Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin Steele said he has no doubt Cosby would commit another such offence if given the opportunity , warning that the TV star seemingly gets a sexual thrill out of slipping women drugs and assaulting them . " So to say that he 's too @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ get a pass , because it 's taken this long to catch up to what he 's done ? " Mr Steele said , his voice rising . " Despite bullying tactics , despite PR teams and other folks trying to change the optics , as one lawyer for the defence put it , the bottom line is that nobody 's above the law . Nobody , " the district attorney said . Sorry , this content is n't available on your device . Judge Steven O'Neill is expected to sentence Cosby on Tuesday . The TV star once known as America 's Dad for his starring role in The Cosby Show could become the first celebrity of the #MeToo era to be sent to prison . Cosby was convicted in April of violating former Temple University women 's basketball administrator Andrea Constand at his suburban Philadelphia mansion in 2004 . After giving evidence for several hours at two trials , the first of which ended in a hung jury , Ms Constand spoke in court on Monday for just two minutes . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Now all I am asking for is justice as the court sees fit , " said Ms Constand , who submitted a much longer victim-impact statement that was not read in court . Mr Steele quoted Ms Constand in her statement as saying that Cosby took " my beautiful , healthy , young spirit and crushed it " . The three charges on which Cosby was convicted carry up to 10 years in prison each , but both sides agreed to merge them together for sentencing because they stemmed from the same encounter . State sentencing guidelines call for about one to four years behind bars on the combined charge . The judge is also expected to decide whether to declare Cosby a " sexually violent predator " , a scarlet letter that would make him subject to mandatory lifetime counselling and community notification of his whereabouts . On Monday , Kristen Dudley , a psychologist for the state of Pennsylvania , said that Cosby has an uncontrollable urge to violate young women and would probably commit another such offence if given the chance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to give evidence on Tuesday . Bill Cosby departs after a sentencing hearing Credit : Matt Slocum/AP Cosby 's lawyers argued that the state law on classifying sexual predators is unconstitutional . They contended also that Cosby is unlikely to commit another crime because of his age and health and because there have been no complaints that he molested anyone in the 14 years since his encounter with Constand . " The suggestion that Mr Cosby is dangerous is not supported by anything other than the frenzy , " Mr Green said , alluding to protesters outside the courthouse and public debate about the case . Ms Constand 's mother , Gianna , also went in the witness boxy and attributed her health problems to Cosby-related stress . She accused Cosby of " ruining many lives . " " I can only hope and pray that some sense of peace and faith can be restored back on our family , " she said . " The victims can not be un-raped . Unfortunately , all we can do is hold the perpetrator @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into the courthouse in the morning on the arm of his longtime spokesman as protesters shouted at him . His wife of 54 years , Camille , was not in court . Cosby spokesman Andrew Wyatt told reporters in the afternoon that the entertainer was in " great , great " spirits . " We tell him to stay strong and stay focused , and he 's focused on Mrs Cosby , and that 's what matters in his family , " Mr Wyatt said . Bill Cosby pictured in 1972 Credit : AP " He 's a great guy . He 's still America 's Dad , and they wo n't ever take that away . " You ca n't take away the legacy . " In the years since Constand first went to police in 2005 , more than 60 women have accused Cosby of sexual misconduct , though none of those claims have led to criminal charges . At least two of those women , Lise-Lotte Lublin and former model Janice Dickinson , were among those in the courtroom @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hoped to have some of the other accusers address the court at sentencing . But the district attorney 's office said that that would not happen . A few hours before the hearing , Ms Constand tweeted Ephesians 4:26 , a Bible verse about letting go of anger : " Be wrathful , but do not sin ; do not let the sun set while you are still angry ; do not give the devil an opportunity . " Cosby , who grew up in public housing in Philadelphia , became the first black actor to star in a prime-time TV show , I Spy , in 1965 . He remained a Hollywood A-lister for much of the next half-century , hitting his peak in the 1980s with the top-rated Cosby Show as the warm , wisecracking father , Dr Cliff Huxtable . |

With his first album Coming Home , Leon Bridges went from washing dishes in Texas to playing for President Obama at the White House . The singer 's ability to channel the smooth soul sounds of the 60s earned him comparisons to Sam Cooke and Marvin Gaye , not to mention multiple Grammy nominations and a sought-after spot on the soundtrack to Big Little Lies . But , even as he shared stages with Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder , a question mark hovered over the 28-year-old : Was he a musician in his own right , or simply a skilful mimic ? He provides answers - lots of them - on the recently-released follow-up , Good Thing , which expands his sound in multiple directions , without losing the romanticism of his debut . The star admits he struggled to make it happen , though . " It wanted to change the sound but , honestly , when I started writing I felt like I had n't found it yet , " he tells the BBC . It was only when he brought in producer Ricky Reed ( Kesha , Halsey @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Image caption The singer was raised in Fort Worth , Texas Reed pushed Bridges and his four-piece band out of their comfort zone , particularly on the opening track - Bet Ai n't Worth The Hand - where Bridges ' reveals an affectingly mournful falsetto . " I never loved my falsetto , I never thought it was strong , " says the singer . " But Ricky encouraged me to go to those places and it 's really cool . " That said , he 's not so keen on playing the song live - placing it at the start of his set to get those high notes out of the way . " It was fun recording it but I hate that song now ! " he laughs . " Honestly , singing in that register every night is rough . " He 's more comfortable with the warm baritone he employs on Shy ; or the staccato vocal flips of the Bruno Mars-like You Do n't Know . But perhaps his best vocal performance is on the sinuous Bad @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at his critics . " I hit ' em with the style and grace , and watch their ankles break , " he sings over a laid-back soul-jazz groove . The song is a response to " people who 've told me personally that I could n't do anything with music , " the singer tells the BBC . " In America , I feel that the system was n't designed for people of colour to succeed , " he says . " So it 's a song of victory . I 'm making something great out of nothing . " It 's a rare diversion into politics for the 28-year-old ; a fact he 's keenly aware of . " I want to use my platform to speak on race and the problems within the world and within America , " he explains , " but it 's hard for me personally to put that in a song and make it poetic . " I feel a lot of pressure to make political music . But at the base of it , I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rush and make something political for the sake of it . " Maybe he could take some pointers from Gil Scott-Heron , the revolutionary poet who was best-known for The Revolution Will Not Be Televised - a biting , spoken-word screed against consumer culture that became an anthem of the 1970s black power movement . Bridges played Scott-Heron in the Neil Armstrong biopic First Man - delivering a faithful version of the polemic Whitey On The Moon , which asked why America had millions of dollars to pour into space exploration while millions of African-Americans lived in poverty . " I listened to that recording over and over again and got some of his inflections , " he says of his preparation for the role . " I could have turned the song into something soulful but I wanted to keep it true to him . " Image copyrightGetty ImagesImage caption Gil Scott-Heron was critical of the money spent on the space mission When we speak in July , however , Bridges confesses , " I actually do n't know @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , director Damien Chazelle ( Whiplash , La La Land ) eventually dialled back the film 's politics - so the performance , originally part of a " protest scene " , ends up as a brief soundbite . But the experience has whet Bridges ' appetite for further acting roles . But Bridges is n't just a scholar of music . He 's also a classicist when it comes to dance , having studied ballet , modern , African , and jazz techniques at college - which explains the supple fluidity of his moves in his latest video , If It Feels Good ( Then It Must Be ) . Even his dapper , clean-cut style is indebted to the past - although from a more surprising source than you might imagine . " Man , I always loved style . Even when I was a kid , " he says . " But what really sparked my love for this type of fashion was seeing a photo of a group called The Dapper Rebels , which was a couple of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " There are some amazing photos of these guys dressed to the nines . And those photos inspired me , because I 'd never seen black men dressed in that way , and I wanted to incorporate it into my own style . " Those threads show how far he 's come from the kid wearing his " brother 's hand-me-down clothes , " as he sings on Georgia To Texas . He credits his hospital administrator mother , Lisa Sawyer , with keeping the family afloat - both mentally and financially - as he grew up ; and says one of his proudest moments was paying off her debt after his first album hit the charts . To keep her close , he 's had her name tattooed on his right forearm ; while he wrote a gorgeous doo-wop song about her , also called Lisa Sawyer , on his debut album . " I could write a billion songs that could never repay her for the sacrifices she made for me and my siblings , " he says . " She @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ kind of cool for me to fulfil her dreams .

I 've sunk about 40 hours into The Bard 's Tale 4 : Barrows Deep so far , and I 'm not ready to hoist my ' Saved the World ' tankard just yet . It 's a really big game .

It 's often possible to stroll up to within speaking distance of an enemy without being seen .

Characters ca n't be re-specced , so if you make a bad choice or decide you do n't like how your front-line tank is shaping up , that 's too bad .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. The phrase 'gets a big bang out of tormenting me with threats of demonic possession' involves the verb 'get' with an NP object 'a big bang' and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

I 've sunk about 40 hours into The Bard 's Tale 4 : Barrows Deep so far , and I 'm not ready to hoist my ' Saved the World ' tankard just yet . It 's a really big game . But even though I have yet to dispatch the latest and greatest threat to the city of Skara Brae -- and the greater world of Caith , because the adventure goes far beyond Skara Brae 's walls -- I am happy . This is the dungeon crawling adventure I 've been waiting for . The Bard 's Tale 4 is a remarkable modernization of an infamously punishing old game , and the dungeon crawler genre as a whole . The update is most obviously apparent in the free-roaming movement system that lets me look and go where I want , without the conventional constraints of grid-based movement . It 's all smoke and mirrors -- the levels are as linear and corridor-based as they were in the original Bard 's Tale games -- but the free movement , map layouts , and longer lines of sight work together to brilliantly camouflage the angular restrictiveness and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It took me awhile to adjust to the oddities that this hybrid system sometimes enables . The tutorial level talks about sticking to the shadows to sneak past an enemy , for instance , but there 's no actual stealth feature , and visibility is solely a matter of distance and positioning on the invisible grid that maps are built upon . It 's often possible to stroll up to within speaking distance of an enemy without being seen . Jumping , ducking , hiding , leaning , and other advanced movements that you 'd expect from a first-person RPG are n't possible either , because -- and I feel like this really deserve emphasis -- that 's not what The Bard 's Tale 4 is . It might be dressed up like Skyrim Lite , but it 's a Bard 's Tale game through and through . The Bard 's Tale will happily throw enemies in your path that you are woefully unprepared to handle . As up-to-date as The Bard 's Tale 4 looks and sounds ( the ambient audio is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ unforgivingly old-fashioned . Characters ca n't be re-specced , so if you make a bad choice or decide you do n't like how your front-line tank is shaping up , that 's too bad . Inventories are n't accessible in a fight , so forget about asking everyone to hold up while you open your pack and pull out a healing potion . Speaking of which , healing potions are in extremely short supply , and you can forget about crafting all you need because one of the herbs needed to make them is just as rare . And The Bard 's Tale will happily throw enemies in your path that you are woefully unprepared to handle .

Birmingham 's Anaal Nathrakh has been producing extreme metal music that is as sonically intense as it is sophisticated since 1999 . Multi-instrumentalist Mick Kenney takes riffs that are at times reminiscent of black metal and at other times grindcore , and juxtaposes them with electronic elements culled from industrial , gabber , and other genres . Meanwhile , vocalist Dave Hunt 's vicious growls and shrieks alternate with an operatic singing voice that calls to mind beloved classic metal singers like Rob Halford or King Diamond . The resulting cocktail is definitely " in your face , " but their songwriting is at often tuneful as well . Anaal Nathrakh is catchier than it has any right to be , especially on their latest record , A New Kind of Horror , streaming below . " To me , the word interesting is probably the highest adjective you could apply to something that is praise . We try to do something that 's interesting for the listener , " Hunt said in an interview regarding the band 's overall artistic direction . For he and Kenney , that means not only rabidly exploring the most abrasive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the opportunity to question what they 're hearing , as well as the wider world around them . Where many metal bands are introspective , Anaal Nathrakh is interrogative . " We write albums , not exams or manifestos , but I do like there to be something that seeks to engage the listener 's mind and personality a little bit , " Hunt says . " It does n't always work but when it does I think it adds a lot to the experience of listening to music . We will hold up things from the world and say , ' Maybe you knew about this , maybe you did n't , but you 're going to have to think about this now . ' " On A New Kind of Horror , Hunt holds World War I up for the listener 's consideration . " It is appropriate to reflect on World War I right now , I think . " he says , noting that it 's now been 100 years since peace was declared , but much of the world 's suffering has not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Previous Anaal Nathrakh songs have dealt with the perils of corrupt politicians and other hardships that affect real people , as opposed to the occult fantasies that many of their peers engage with . A New Kind of Horror , though , has the clearest theme in their discography . " One of the important things that come out of thinking about all of that is how similar those people in that situation were to us in the situation we are in today , " he says . " The people then seem quite modern to me , quite relatable in many respects . It brings out parallels between then and now . " Those parallels include the wartime atrocities that are some of the most indelible images in documentaries and works of fiction set during that time -- atrocities which are by no means a thing of the past . " WWI was a new kind of horror in many ways , including the scale of the slaughter . It was the first time that chemical weapons had been used on that scale , " Hunt explains @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ chlorine gas being deployed somewhere . Do we learn over time ? I do n't know , but we have n't learned not to do that to each other . " Anaal Nathrakh is n't the first metal band to centre an album thematically around the First World War ; their fellow West Midlands natives in Bolt Thrower wrote their celebrated final album , To Those Once Loyal , about it as well . Hunt toured the US alongside Bolt Thrower with Benediction in 2013 , and calls himself a fan of the band , but denies that his former tourmates influenced A New Kind of Horror , though he admits the two records could be seen as companion pieces . " Their take on things all things military is a bit different than ours , " he says . " When we come in we 're focusing on the poetic side . The conflict itself does n't have much to do with what we 're doing ; we want to represent the more microcosmic level of what 's happening with these people . " When Hunt @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ While Anaal Nathrakh rarely publish their lyrics ( Hunt wants his listeners to be able to draw their own interpretations from his music ) , intelligible pieces of his singing , song titles , and film samples in the band 's past often have literary origins . For example , the song " Waiting for the Barbarians , " from their 2006 album Eschaton , shares its title with a novel by Nobel Laureate J. M. Coetzee . " Do Not Speak , " from their 2004 album Domine Non Es Dignus features a sample from a film version of 1984 . Anaal Nathrakh are part of a long tradition of metal bands who draw from literature for inspiration . Metallica reference Hemingway and Thoreau on " For Whom the Bell Tolls " and " Of Wolf and Man " respectively ; Iron Maiden , whom Anaal Nathrakh has covered , quoted Samuel Taylor Coleridge 's " Rime of the Ancient Mariner " on their beloved song of the same name . From that perspective , Anaal Nathrakh are carrying the torch of literate heavy metal out of its @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ When I think about that topic WWI , the first thing that comes into my mind is always ' Dolce Et Decorum Est , ' the Wilfred Owen poem , " Hunt says . " This poem describes being subject to a gas attack , it is n't the kind of thing to revel in , it 's not something to glorify , but it 's a point to reflect on . The poem is such a powerful evocation of a particular place and time that it went straight into the mix of ideas to draw from for the album . " Owen fought in the trenches during the war while writing poems , and died nearly one week to the day before the final ceasefire was declared . Quotes from the poem surface as lyrics in " Obscene as Cancer , " the first proper song on A New Kind of Horror , and are reflected in the album 's final song , " Are We Fit For Glory Yet ? " , which is based on the poem " Aftermath " by Siegfried Sassoon , Owen 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , album highlight " The Horrid Strife " is an even more overt reference to celebrated poet D. H. Lawrence 's " Kissing And Horrid Strife . " " He writes in a dreamlike way , he repeats things and so on to create a feeling inside the reader that 's more than simply reading what 's on the page . To me that seems similar to what one should hope good music could be , " Hunt says of Lawrence 's influence . " Another thing of his was balance , and when things are in balance there is happiness , so you have kissing and also the horrid strife in one poem . But when things are out of balance that is a great evil as I understand it . So ' The Horrid Strife ' is just pulling out one side of what goes on in that poem and using that to maybe ask questions -- possibly are we in a world where things are tipped to far in one direction ? " 100 years ago , tanks treads rolled over entrenchments and ushered in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an inspiration for many metal bands ' finest work , from Iron Maiden 's " Aces High " to Slayer 's " War Ensemble " -- but neither of those songs capture the human cost of war the way A New Kind of Horror does , and few musical acts of any strike embody she sheer havoc of the battlefield the way Anaal Nathrakh do . Maybe the scales of society are tipped entirely too far in one direction , still causing us discord after the cannons have faded . If so , it 's cold comfort that Hunt and Kenney are making music amidst the madness , blowing us all sonic kisses through |

Anyone who 's gotten stuck in an unwanted group text knows how terrible it can be . Your phone blows up uncontrollably , and all you can do is hope the thread eventually quiets down . For the longest time , the only way to leave a group text was to block your friends or flat-out tell them to stop texting you . Luckily , Apple added support way back in iOS 8 to easily remove yourself from an iMessage Group , and it 's still here in iOS 12 . Android does n't have an iMessage equivalent ( at least not one that 's universal , though that might be changing with Chat ) , but in that ecosystem it 's as simple as deleting the message . Below , we 'll walk you through how to opt-out of a group text on your iOS and Android devices . Remove yourself from group texts on iOS First step is to open the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 'd like to leave . Step 2 for how to ? get out of group texts on iOS You 'll want to tap right under the status bar on the images or initials of those in the Group chat . This will open a new drop-down menu , and you 'll select the ' info ' button Remove yourself from group texts on iOS in three steps . Taping the " info " button will bring you to the details section . Just select " Leave this Conversation " at the bottom of the screen , and you will be removed . If that option is gray , it means someone in the group text does not have iMessage on or is running the latest version of iOS . If that 's the case , you wo n't be able to leave the conversation . The workaround is either to delete the message or mute notifications by enabling selecting " Hide Alerts . " If there 's just one major offender on the group text , you may need to just block that particular person , but it wo n't remove you from the conversation . However , you should have multiple options for muting the conversation so you 're not pinged on it every damn time . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'get a goal out of nothing', where 'out of nothing' is a prepositional phrase modifying 'goal', not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

English attacker Curran left Victoria Park in the summer after netting 29 goals in 118 appearances over three-and-a-half years , opting to join Csaba Laszlo 's Tangerines . Kettlewell and fellow co-manager Steven Ferguson were keen to retain Curran following County 's relegation from the Premiership , with the Staggies claiming they were unable to match the terms offered by United . Curran has netted twice in six matches for his new club so far , and Kettlewell says his side must be on guard in tomorrow 's Championship match at Tannadice . " He was a player we tried to keep at our club , there ? ? ? s no secret in that . " I enjoyed a really good relationship with him , he 's a great lad to have in and around the dressing room .

" Among the strikers brought in to fill Curran 's void is former Dunfermline attacker Declan McManus , and although he has been in and out of the side in recent weeks , Kettlewell feels the 24-year-old is progressing well .

Senior Scottish Tories are involved in a plot to keep Boris Johnson out of Downing Street over fears his leadership would destroy the party 's revival north of the Border . Internal party polling and analysis shows victory for Mr Johnson in a leadership contest to succeed Theresa May would boost the Labour Party in Scotland , putting at risk several of the Westminster seats the Tories won in 2017 and making it impossible for Ruth Davidson to become First Minister . " We 're going to do everything we can to stop that from happening , " a source said about the prospect of Mr Johnson getting the keys to 10 Downing Street . It comes as the former foreign secretary , who resigned from the UK government and has mounted a guerilla campaign in the media against Mrs May 's plans for Brexit , prepares to mount his biggest challenge to the Prime Minister 's authority with a speech to a rally on the fringe of the Conservative Party conference in Birmingham . The event today is expected to draw around 1,000 party activists and is timed to distract from Mrs May @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Scottish ' stop Boris ' campaign hope the message his leadership could cost the party votes in Scotland -- and damage hopes of winning a general election -- reaches grassroots members across the UK . Scottish Tory MPs are also being pressed to vote against Mr Johnson in the early stages of any leadership contest . Internal party polling is understood to reflect the findings of a survey by former Tory peer Lord Ashcroft , which showed while Mrs May holds an eight-point lead in favourability ratings against Mr Corbyn , with 54 per cent preferring her as Prime Minister to 46 per cent for the Labour leader , Mr Johnson would find himself in a dead heat . Insiders say much of that lost support is in Scotland . The former foreign secretary has come under sustained attack in Birmingham over his disloyalty , including from former allies in the Brexit campaign such as David Davis . Ruth Davidson also called for " a period of silence " . Mr Johnson used a Sunday Times interview to describe Mrs May 's Brexit policy as " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have fuelled speculation about his leadership ambitions , he contrasted his position on Brexit with that of Mrs May , who backed Remain , saying : " Unlike the Prime Minister , I fought for this . " Chancellor Philip Hammond launched a scathing attack yesterday , saying he does not expect the former foreign secretary to become Prime Minister . Mr Hammond said " I do n't expect it to happen " and suggested Mr Johnson could not do " grown-up politics " . He went on to attack the flamboyant Brexiteer for having " no grasp of detail " on complex subjects like Brexit , suggesting his greatest achievement to date had been introducing the " Boris Bike " cycle scheme while London mayor . In his speech to conference yesterday , Mr Hammond predicted a " deal dividend " that could fund tax cuts and public service spending once a Brexit deal was reached . Mr Hammond 's forecast came as he called on Conservatives to stand " four square " behind the Prime Minister as she enters the final weeks of negotiations @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ also threatened internet giants like Google and Amazon with a new digital services tax to make sure they pay their fair share of the cost of public services . " When the Prime Minister gets a deal agreed , there will be a boost to our economic growth , " Mr Hammond said . " A ' deal dividend ' , which we will share in line with our balanced approach between keeping taxes low , supporting public services , reducing the deficit , and investing in Britain 's future . " Mr Hammond said the Treasury was keeping sufficient " fiscal firepower " to hand to deal with any economic fallout from a no-deal Brexit . But he urged Tories to unite to help Mrs May get a deal , saying : " Over the next few weeks we must stand together four square behind the PM. " |

I always dreamed of getting married . Growing up , I would fantasise about finding the one , and having a fairy-tale wedding . I knew when it came my big day would be perfect . Getting married always seemed like something to be proud of -- a sign you were officially an adult , and a chance to have a partner in crime for life . But , when I did finally get engaged , I slightly lost sight of what mattered -- that is , building a happy future with my girlfriend . Instead , I got so obsessed with the idea of the perfect wedding , that I became a total ' groomzilla ' and nearly lost her . I 'm 26 , a football fan , but I would n't describe myself as much of a ' lad ' . I prefer a night in with friends rather than going out on the town . I am a bit of a worrier though , and that trait got magnified when it came to planning the wedding . Laura* and I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at university and had loads in common . We were together for four years before I proposed , and before we started planning the wedding we had hardly ever argued . I was sure almost immediately that I wanted to spend my life with her , but it took me a while to pluck up the courage to propose . Eventually , I took her on a romantic trip to the Cotswolds , climbed to the top of the highest hill , and got down on one knee . The next morning the fear set in . I was quite young to be married - one of the first in my friendship group - and everyone was so excited for us . I wanted to make sure they all had an amazing time , and started worrying that if there was a slip-up it would be the only thing that anyone remembered . So , mistakenly , I decided the only way to avoid that happening was by micromanaging every last detail . BBC Three / iStock It started with weekly meetings . I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a table at home with her parents on video call . We were living with my parents at the time , so there was n't much space to hide when things got tense . We actually had more than a year to plan but anyone would think it was a matter of weeks , the way I was acting . The closer we got to the big day , the more of a nightmare I became . I was uptight about everything , from the flowers to the place cards , which had to be put on the table at exactly the right angle . Not only did everything have to go with my theme of ' blossom ' -- which I picked to highlight the fact we were having a spring wedding -- but they also had to be the exact same colour of light pink to match the ribbon around the cutlery , the bows on the chairs and the colour of the bridesmaids ' dresses . Any shade lighter or darker would not do . It had to be that pink . When it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fussed about what I was wearing -- I pretty much picked the first suit I tried on . But I was fussed about the colour of my cravat and making sure it matched the theme , as well as the groomsmen 's cravats . I made sure we did the bridesmaids ' dresses together , so that the colour was right , but also the sizing . Some of them were only three or four-years-old , so I spent time predicting how much they 'd grow and making sure they 'd fit on the day . I would have liked to have chosen Laura 's wedding dress too , and would have definitely been honest about what I liked and did n't like . But she insisted on choosing it without me and not letting me see it until the big day , which was probably for the best . Eventually , with a month to go , my parents pulled me aside and told me I needed to calm down . When I told my mates about this chat on my stag do , some thought @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ man -- looked me straight in the eye and told me they were worried about me . That I 'd alienated everybody , including Laura , and that nobody could understand why I was obsessing so much over a single day . By this point , the planning meetings were causing a lot of tensions ; people were refusing to come -- they 'd just had enough of being shouted at about cake or flowers -- and Laura had even walked out a few times . Still , I refused to listen to advice from friends and family . BBC Three / iStock Finally , Laura sat me down and told me she could n't take much more : that my behaviour had to stop , that I 'd made a chore out of something that was supposed to be fun , and that if I carried on , there would be no wedding . Her words hit me hard . All I had wanted was to make the perfect day for her and all our friends and family , but seeing her so angry made @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I could see beyond the wedding day , and the thought of a future without her was unbearable . From that moment on , I tried to sit back and relax a bit . Everything was pretty much organised by then anyway , so all I had to do was let everyone do their jobs . I focused on writing my speech and trying to find the right words to tell Laura how much she meant to me . When I look back on my behaviour now , I cringe . On the day itself , I was a bundle of nerves , but it all went so fast there was n't time to get too stressed ; it was just a happy blur -- but I do remember the first time I saw Laura in her dress . She looked amazing , and I was so glad it was a surprise . And yes , I did include a few jokes about my ' groomzilla ' behaviour in my speech . As did the best man . I 'm lucky to have Laura , and marriage @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , we got the photo album of our wedding out and looked back . While we had an amazing day in the end , I think we 're both glad we do n't have to do it again . |

' Luckily , our ' Dany Takes Charge ' moment was brief and then we were treated to a succession of the very best characters in the piece , most of them female : Arya saying her nightly prayers in front of The Hound , meaning a recitation of all the people she wants to kill in front of the Hound ( last name on the list : ' The Hound ' ) ; Brienne gamely submitting to being one half of another odd couple with Pod , a squire who ca n't even skin a rabbit on an open fire ( that sounds like a metaphor but it actually happened ) . They were all great examples of how Game of Thrones matches off its pairings perfectly , doses of comic relief sugaring the pillage . Best of all was off a return to the Eyrie to be reacquainted with Lady Arryn , another @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Arryn , you might remember , lives in that weird castle in the sky with the hole in the middle , and her mental status is as casually hazardous as her living arrangements . She is mad , bad and dangerous to know . When Littlefinger brought Sansa to the Eyrie for -- ha ha ! -- a safe haven , it took about five minutes to remind us why in a trade off we could do with a bit more Lady Arryn ( never a dull moment ) and a little less Bran Stark and his three-eyed raven ( almost always a dull moment ) . Watching Littlefinger trying to wriggle out of marrying her was priceless , the arch manipulator left speechless in the face of someone parked way beyond logic . Not only is Lady Arryn consumed with jealousy of almost everyone , from her dead sister Cat to Sansa , but last night she revealed that it was she who had poisoned her own husband , Jon Arryn , at Littlefinger 's behest , right at the start of Series One . In its own way @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they kill everyone , and all the better for it . Wikipedia will supply you with the details , but suffice to say that it was the death of Jon Arryn that led to Ned Stark leaving Winterfell in the first place to take up residence in King 's Landing . If that had never happened Game of Thrones might have turned out like Monarch of the Glen , and none of us would be talking about it now . In other words -- rather deliciously -- it 's all Mad Lady Arryn 's fault . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'out of anything he can get his hands on' does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the materials used to build vehicles, which is unrelated to the construction's properties.

The four were caught out by one of their own dashboard cameras after racing in front of dozens of watching spectators . In one clip , the footage shows a firecracker being lit to signal the start of the race before two vehicles do a short circuit that includes a public highway . The camera captures multiple races taking place in front of crowds on the Nelson Industrial Estate in Cramlington in October last year .

Sergeant Matt Sykes , head of Northumbria Police 's Operation Dragoon team , has now warned there will be serious consequences for anyone who uses the streets as a race track . He said : " It is not illegal to have a passion for cars but what these men were doing that night was illegal and put innocent members of the public at risk . " If they wanted to see how fast they can drive their car then they should go to a track day and not an industrial estate in Cramlington .

" It came as no surprise to me that the jury saw through their lies and they are now set to be taken off our roads for the foreseeable future . " Police were notified of the car meet in Cramlington after receiving calls from frustrated residents annoyed by the noise it was causing on the evening of October 28 last year . The event had been organised by 39-year-old Damian Rodgers who can be seen in footage shown to court starting races with a firecracker .

Despite the overwhelming video evidence against them , all four men denied that they had committed any criminal offences and took the case to trial . Rodgers , of the Coach Road Estate , Usworth , Washington , denied three counts of aiding and abetting dangerous driving . He was found guilty by a jury of three counts of aiding and abetting careless driving .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'take the pain out of finding the right cover', where 'finding the right cover' is an NP complement of the complex preposition 'out of', not a VP[-ing] predicate with a causee.

The four were caught out by one of their own dashboard cameras after racing in front of dozens of watching spectators . In one clip , the footage shows a firecracker being lit to signal the start of the race before two vehicles do a short circuit that includes a public highway . The camera captures multiple races taking place in front of crowds on the Nelson Industrial Estate in Cramlington in October last year .

Sergeant Matt Sykes , head of Northumbria Police 's Operation Dragoon team , has now warned there will be serious consequences for anyone who uses the streets as a race track . He said : " It is not illegal to have a passion for cars but what these men were doing that night was illegal and put innocent members of the public at risk .

" It came as no surprise to me that the jury saw through their lies and they are now set to be taken off our roads for the foreseeable future . " Police were notified of the car meet in Cramlington after receiving calls from frustrated residents annoyed by the noise it was causing on the evening of October 28 last year . The event had been organised by 39-year-old Damian Rodgers who can be seen in footage shown to court starting races with a firecracker .

Despite the overwhelming video evidence against them , all four men denied that they had committed any criminal offences and took the case to trial . Rodgers , of the Coach Road Estate , Usworth , Washington , denied three counts of aiding and abetting dangerous driving . He was found guilty by a jury of three counts of aiding and abetting careless driving .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves an intransitive verb 'get' with no NP object and the phrase 'out of feeling sad' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves 'Google drops out of bidding', where 'bidding' is part of a noun phrase ('bidding for $10 billion Pentagon data deal') and not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object in the sentence, and it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves 'Google drops out of bidding', where 'bidding' is part of a noun phrase ('bidding for $10 billion Pentagon data deal') rather than a VP[-ing] predicate with a causee. Additionally, there is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the sentence does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('he talked them out of joining the IRA'). It has a prevention interpretation ('he prevented them from joining the IRA by means of talking'). The verb 'talked' fits the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot (by means of verbal persuasion). The NP subject 'he' is an animate agent, and the NP object 'them' functions as a causee. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence 'Many said he talked them out of joining the IRA.' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('he') + V1 ('talked') + NP object ('them') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('joining the IRA'). It also exhibits a prevention interpretation, where the subject ('he') prevents the object ('them') from performing the action described by the VP2[-ing] predicate ('joining the IRA'). The verb 'talked' falls under the category of means to achieve a goal by verbal persuasion, and the NP object 'them' functions as a causee. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('talk Locke out of raping Brienne'). It involves an animate NP subject ('He') and an NP object ('Locke') that functions as a causee, inducing a prevention interpretation (preventing Locke from raping Brienne).

If the last episode felt a bit like a meet and greet ( although meeting the wonderful Dame Diana Rigg was a treat ) then episode three was a Thronie delight , full of machinations , violence and darkly comic moments -- basically Game of Thrones at its best . The comedy started with a funeral -- does n't it always . By the time Robb Stark 's gung-ho uncle Edmure Tully ( Tobias Menzies ) failed to land the third burning arrow into Lord Hustor 's straw-filled boat , which was rapidly disappearing down stream , you felt a snigger rising . Luckily Brynden the Blackfish stepped in to finish the job properly . Tyrion Lannister ( Peter Dinklage ) made an awkward moment more awkward by dragging a heavy chair to the head of the table , opposite his father , at a musical chairs version of the first Small Council meeting . Not that it helped increase his standing in his father 's eyes -- he was swiftly demoted to the menial Master of the Coins , prompting smirks from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ money , " Tyrion said , outraged , ' " but after a lifetime of outrageous wealth I 'm not so good at saving it . ' " More smirks came shortly afterwards from a very satisfied looking Podrick ( Daniel Portman ) , who had spent an afternoon with some obliging ladies in Littlefinger 's brothel . When Pod plonked a bag of coins on the table -- money the girls had given back to him -- a flabbergastered Tryion poured himself and Bronn a goblet of wine and said , ' " We 're going to need details . Copious details . " Tyrion is everybody 's favourite character ( and the author George RR Martin 's ) because he is the most well-rounded . But this season is shaping up to be the best yet because of excellent character development . In particular the fleshing out and humanising of those you had down as definite baddies -- you know , the child murdering types . Stripped of his position and riches , Jaime Lannister ( Nikolaj Coster-Waldau ) let his emotional armour down and showed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Gwendoline Christie ) some well-meant advice when they were captured -- " If you fight them they will kill you " . Then when she was dragged off kicking and screaming he persuaded their captor Locke ( Noah Taylor ) that her father would pay her weight in sapphires ( substantial when you 're 6ft 3ins ) if she was returned " unsullied " . When she was brought back to be tied to the tree , we saw his golden tongue had worked ; she is unharmed . For the first time ever we saw a look of tenderness cross Jaime 's face . But it was not all comedy and warmth -- this is Game of Thrones after all . After being freed from his crucifix , Theon Greyjoy ( Alfie Allen ) only narrowly avoided being raped by his captors when his mystery saviour ( played by Misfits 's Iwan Rheon ) rode in and killed them all . Beyond the Wall the Others left an ominously arty display of chopped up horses bleeding into the snow and one of Castor 's wildling wives had another @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Speaking of sons , Stannis Baratheon ( Stephen Dillane ) told his priestess he wanted another shadow baby ( although she basically said he was n't man enough ) and Daenerys Targaryen ( Emilia Clarke ) promised to give up one of her children - a dragon - for an army of 8,000 Unsullieds . And just when you thought Locke had finished torturing the Kingslayer by stroking his eyeball with a cleaver , then whoosh . It takes us -- and Jaime -- a minute to realise what just happened . He might have been able to talk Locke out of raping Brienne , but he could n't save his hand . |

The Annual Report of the Certification Officer , Sarah Bedwell , was laid before Parliament today 11 October 2018 . The report describes the work of the Certification Officer over the year 1 April 2017 to 31 March 2018 and provides detailed information on all trade unions and employers ' associations . The statistical information it contains is drawn from the annual returns received during the reporting period , which relate mainly to the year ending 31 December 2016 . Sarah Bedwell was appointed by the Secretary of State on 1 January 2018 . The report was prepared together with Gerard Walker who held the position on an interim basis until 31 December 2017 and has since been appointed as Assistant Certification Officer . Figures reported to the Certification Officer show total trade union membership of 6,875,231 . This is an increase of 10,175 members or 0.15% . However , this included 147,330 retired members of UNISON that had not been included in previous totals . Without this figure the total figure would have been 6,727,901 or a decrease of 2% @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ continues the decrease in union membership for the ninth successive year . The 13 largest unions account for over four fifths of the total trade union membership ( 5.82 million members or 84.7% ) ( Introduction , Chapter 4 and Appendix 4 ) . The number of trade unions has also continued to decrease , notwithstanding the modest increase in 2014-15 . There were 146 trade unions on the Certification Officer 's lists and schedules at the end of this reporting period , compared to 150 at the end of the previous period . Whilst three trade unions were added to the list , seven were removed . At the end of this reporting period there were 91 employers ' associations , the same number as at the end of the previous reporting period . ( Introduction , Chapter 1 ) . The total funds ( net assets ) of trade unions as reported in this period decreased 14% to ? 1,307 million . The 13 largest unions , that each have membership in excess of 100,000 members , had average net assets of ? 53 million ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sum contained in the political funds of the trade unions at the end of this period was ? 34 million . This is up ? 2.3 million , from ? 31.7 million the previous year . The largest political fund was that of Unite the Union , which was valued at around ? 14.5 million ( Chapter 7 and Appendix 9 ) . On 1 September 2017 the National Education Union was formed by amalgamation of the National Union of Teachers ( NUT ) and Association of Teachers and Lecturers ( ATL ) , two unions who at the end of the previous reporting period had a combined membership of around 565,583 . Over the past reporting year 55 complaints were determined . This compares to 39 complaints in the previous reporting year . Of these , 52 complaints alleged that a union had breached its own rules . The other 3 related to alleged breaches of statute . A summary of these decisions can be found in Chapters 3 , 4 , 8 and 9 of this report . The issue that attracted the most @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Stacey in her role as Assistant Certification Officer to hear the complaints of Mr Burgess and others against UNISON . The complaints related to the General Secretary election in 2015 . There were multiple applicants and 16 complaints that required a preliminary hearing and three full days of evidence and submissions . Following this , the ACO made a single declaration that the union had breached its own rules relating to the election ; she considered it inappropriate to make an enforcement order on the basis that it would be disproportionately punitive , in response to the breach found , to order the General Secretary election to be run again . During the reporting year , a number of complaints arising out of the General Secretary election in 2017 were raised against Unite the Union by two applicants , Gerard Coyne and Richard Brooks . The Certification Officer appointed Jeffrey Burke QC to hear these complaints as Assistant Certification Officer . Following hearings between March and June 2018 , the Assistant Certification Officer dismissed all 10 complaints . The decisions can be accessed on the breach of union rules @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2016 The Trade Union Act 2016 received royal assent on 4 May 2016 . To date three sections of the Act , that relate to the work of the Certification Officer , have been implemented : Section 7 Information to Certification Officer about industrial action etc ; Section 11 : Opting in by union members to contribute to political funds ; and Section 12 : Union 's annual return to include details of political expenditure All these provisions were commenced on 1 March 2017 . Further details can be found in the Annual Report . New duties to report on political expenditure and to provide information about industrial action apply to the reporting periods which begin after 1 March 2017 . For the majority of trade unions this will mean that they will provide this information , for the first time , in their annual returns to me for the period ending 31 December 2018 which should be provided to me before 1 June 2019 .

New members joining a union with a political fund on or after 1 March 2018 or all members of a union which establishes a new political fund will have to opt in if they wish to contribute to a political fund . To comply with the changes trade unions with political funds had to amend their rules relating to these funds and the amended rules must have been approved by me before 1 March 2018 . All rule changes were approved for all trade unions wishing to retain a political fund during this period .

The new provisions , incorporated into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on trade unions to submit to the Certification Officer annually a Membership Audit Certificate at the same as the union 's annual return .

These powers came into force on 1 June 2016 . In this reporting year 153 membership audit certificates were due and all of these were received . No circumstances arose leading the Certification Officer to use his investigatory powers under section 24 of the 1992 Act . Notes to editors : The annual report of the Certification Officer for Trade Unions and Employers ' Associations was published and laid before Parliament on 11 October 2018 . It is available on the Certification Office website : **31;684;TOOLONG .

The 13 largest unions , that each have membership in excess of 100,000 members , had average net assets of ? 53 million ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sum contained in the political funds of the trade unions at the end of this period was ? 34 million . This is up ? 2.3 million , from ? 31.7 million the previous year . The largest political fund was that of Unite the Union , which was valued at around ? 14.5 million ( Chapter 7 and Appendix 9 ) . On 1 September 2017 the National Education Union was formed by amalgamation of the National Union of Teachers ( NUT ) and Association of Teachers and Lecturers ( ATL ) , two unions who at the end of the previous reporting period had a combined membership of around 565,583 . Over the past reporting year 55 complaints were determined . This compares to 39 complaints in the previous reporting year . Of these , 52 complaints alleged that a union had breached its own rules . The other 3 related to alleged breaches of statute . A summary of these decisions can be found in Chapters 3 , 4 , 8 and 9 of this report . The issue that attracted the most @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Stacey in her role as Assistant Certification Officer to hear the complaints of Mr Burgess and others against UNISON . The complaints related to the General Secretary election in 2015 . There were multiple applicants and 16 complaints that required a preliminary hearing and three full days of evidence and submissions . Following this , the ACO made a single declaration that the union had breached its own rules relating to the election ; she considered it inappropriate to make an enforcement order on the basis that it would be disproportionately punitive , in response to the breach found , to order the General Secretary election to be run again . During the reporting year , a number of complaints arising out of the General Secretary election in 2017 were raised against Unite the Union by two applicants , Gerard Coyne and Richard Brooks . The Certification Officer appointed Jeffrey Burke QC to hear these complaints as Assistant Certification Officer . Following hearings between March and June 2018 , the Assistant Certification Officer dismissed all 10 complaints . The decisions can be accessed on the breach of union rules @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2016 The Trade Union Act 2016 received royal assent on 4 May 2016 . To date three sections of the Act , that relate to the work of the Certification Officer , have been implemented : Section 7 Information to Certification Officer about industrial action etc ; Section 11 : Opting in by union members to contribute to political funds ; and Section 12 : Union 's annual return to include details of political expenditure All these provisions were commenced on 1 March 2017 . Further details can be found in the Annual Report . New duties to report on political expenditure and to provide information about industrial action apply to the reporting periods which begin after 1 March 2017 . For the majority of trade unions this will mean that they will provide this information , for the first time , in their annual returns to me for the period ending 31 December 2018 which should be provided to me before 1 June 2019 . In preparation for this my team have amended the template which trade unions use to report to this office so that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ -- TRADE UNION ACT 2016 -- OPTING IN BY UNION MEMBERS TO CONTRIBUTE TO POLITICAL FUNDS The law relating to the way members of trade unions contribute to the political funds of their unions has been amended to favour a system of opting in rather that requiring members to opt out of making an otherwise automatic contribution . New members joining a union with a political fund on or after 1 March 2018 or all members of a union which establishes a new political fund will have to opt in if they wish to contribute to a political fund . To comply with the changes trade unions with political funds had to amend their rules relating to these funds and the amended rules must have been approved by me before 1 March 2018 . All rule changes were approved for all trade unions wishing to retain a political fund during this period . The Transparency of Lobbying , Non-Party Campaigning and Trade Union Administration Act 2014 introduced new provisions relating to the membership register of trade unions . The new provisions , incorporated into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on trade unions to submit to the Certification Officer annually a Membership Audit Certificate at the same as the union 's annual return . The new provisions also provide further powers to the Certification Officer to investigate concerns that the provisions of section 24 are not being or have not been compline with by a trade union . These powers came into force on 1 June 2016 . In this reporting year 153 membership audit certificates were due and all of these were received . No circumstances arose leading the Certification Officer to use his investigatory powers under section 24 of the 1992 Act . Notes to editors : The annual report of the Certification Officer for Trade Unions and Employers ' Associations was published and laid before Parliament on 11 October 2018 . It is available on the Certification Office website : **31;684;TOOLONG .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('many developers') + V1 ('are seeking to wriggle') + NP object ('out of paying a contribution to affordable housing') + VP2[-ing] predicate ('by claiming their schemes are 'unviable''). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the developers are preventing the payment of a contribution to affordable housing by claiming their schemes are unviable. The verb 'wriggle' can be categorized under 'By means of deception or trickery', which aligns with the construction's requirements. The NP object ('paying a contribution to affordable housing') involves a causee (the developers) participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

AFTER a five-year absence from the Champions Cup , Edinburgh might have hoped for a gentle reintroduction to European rugby 's premier tournament . Instead , they will face one of the toughest challenges possible when they take the field in France today against Montpellier . Coached by Vern Cotter , Montpellier have had some early-season injury problems and will be without stars such as Nemani Nadolo for this afternoon 's match . That is an individual piece of good news for Edinburgh 's Darcy Graham , who would have lined up against the giant Fijian , but one look at Montpellier 's line-up shows there is still a super-abundance of quality within their ranks . " Our form has been getting there , but we 've not played anyone near the quality of Montpellier , " Edinburgh coach Richard Cockerill accepted . " We 'll go and enjoy ourselves , play with a smile on our faces and give it our best shot . " I think they 'll come at us from everywhere -- they 've got a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And if they can get on top of us up front and get their power game going , then we 'll struggle , because in European terms we 're not a massive team . " Physically they 'll be bigger than us , but it 's for us to be smart enough around the set pieces to hold our own and put them under pressure , and keep the ball-in-play time high and create opportunities for ourselves . We 're not going to be able to bash , smash and outmuscle them -- but I expect us to compete with them , for sure . " It depends what you mean by ' compete ' , of course , but the reality is that Montpellier are widely expected to win well . And that , Cockerill senses , could just play on the nerves of the home team -- to his own players ' advantage . " The pressure 's all on the home team , " the coach said before flying out with his squad to the south of France . " We can come and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to , because no-one thinks we can go there and win . " It 's going to be a huge test for us mentally and physically , especially for some of our younger players who have n't played at this intensity . We 're not going to force them into an arm-wrestle , because that 's going to make it tough for us . If we can keep lots of ball , get quick service and put them under pressure , then we 'll create opportunities . " Cockerill has restored Matt Scott to centre after dropping him last week , and Dougie Fife also returns on the left wing in place of the injured Duhan van der Merwe . But the most interesting selection is on the right , where the coach has gone with Graham , the lightest member of the squad and so defensively vulnerable , but also the player most likely to conjure something out of nothing . " Darcy 's a great kid with a great attitude , as we saw last week , " Cockerill added , referring to the home @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his best player . " He plays and gives everything , and he 's desperate to play and show how good he is . " He had his opportunity last week and he took it , so he 's been rewarded . He 's a young lad who has worked very hard at his game , he 's not a big man -- but he 's got a big heart and works very hard . Regardless of his size he 's doing good things with and without the ball and is worthy of his place , and we 're looking forward to him stepping up to the next level . " Edinburgh need to do that collectively to have any chance of pulling off an upset today . Realistically , however , a moral victory -- perhaps one in which a couple of tries are scored and a losing bonus point secured -- appears more plausible than an actual victory . |

Richard Jolly explores the need for Liverpool to find an additional attacking element -- and explains how Jurgen Klopp is completely aware of the issue . Bernardo Silva was perfectly positioned to snuff out past danger . He had dropped deeper than usual , sitting to Fernandinho 's right , preventing the Brazilian from becoming isolated against , and outnumbered by , midfield runners . He was stationed in Liverpool 's inside-left channel . The Portuguese played very well at Anfield last Sunday . He also seemed primed to stop a man who may not feature again for another 10 months . Proactive so often , Pep Guardiola was reactive , getting his gameplan right months late , albeit when Oxlade-Chamberlain was injured and his Champions League hopes had been destroyed . It was the tactical version of closing the gate after a horse had bolted . If last week 's stalemate illustrated how Liverpool are missing the Englishman 's dynamism , the drudgery forming a contrast with their spring superiority , it highlighted a wider issue . It had been obscured amid the strengthening of the spine @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the winning start to the season , but Liverpool are starting to miss Philippe Coutinho . Not the Brazilian as such , wonderful a player as he was and terrific as his goalscoring record could be in the major matches , but someone from the midfield who could join the front three , relieve the burden on them and offer a catalytic capacity to make something happen , perhaps out of nothing . Briefly , brilliantly , Oxlade-Chamberlain did that . More of an athlete , less of a technician , more likely to catch a team on the counter-attack with raw pace and less likely to find the top corner from 30 yards , he could never be deemed a duplicate of Coutinho .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It also does not exhibit either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of nothing' is not a VP[-ing] predicate but rather a prepositional phrase modifying 'make something happen'.

Richard Jolly explores the need for Liverpool to find an additional attacking element -- and explains how Jurgen Klopp is completely aware of the issue . Bernardo Silva was perfectly positioned to snuff out past danger . He had dropped deeper than usual , sitting to Fernandinho 's right , preventing the Brazilian from becoming isolated against , and outnumbered by , midfield runners . He was stationed in Liverpool 's inside-left channel . The Portuguese played very well at Anfield last Sunday . He also seemed primed to stop a man who may not feature again for another 10 months . Proactive so often , Pep Guardiola was reactive , getting his gameplan right months late , albeit when Oxlade-Chamberlain was injured and his Champions League hopes had been destroyed . It was the tactical version of closing the gate after a horse had bolted . If last week 's stalemate illustrated how Liverpool are missing the Englishman 's dynamism , the drudgery forming a contrast with their spring superiority , it highlighted a wider issue . It had been obscured amid the strengthening of the spine @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the winning start to the season , but Liverpool are starting to miss Philippe Coutinho . Not the Brazilian as such , wonderful a player as he was and terrific as his goalscoring record could be in the major matches , but someone from the midfield who could join the front three , relieve the burden on them and offer a catalytic capacity to make something happen , perhaps out of nothing . Briefly , brilliantly , Oxlade-Chamberlain did that . More of an athlete , less of a technician , more likely to catch a team on the counter-attack with raw pace and less likely to find the top corner from 30 yards , he could never be deemed a duplicate of Coutinho . Stylistically , he is more of a Jurgen Klopp player than Liverpool 's record sale . But the common denominator was excellence in the final third .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'takes the stress out of letting your property' does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a general benefit or relief from a situation, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

With a game of very few chances , Hoddesdon striker Courtney Clay 's long-range strike from the halfway line looked set to prove the difference as he lobbed Ibrahim Ugradar just before half time . However , Sporting Bengal dominated the second half and pushed for an equaliser and were rewarded through striker Steven Carvel . A quick move starting from Bengal 's goalkeeper saw the ball played forward to substitute winger Jason N-W-Ngandu , who played a diagonal cross to Carvel who cleverly lofted the ball over intimidating goalkeeper Aaron Bull to make things level . Sporting Bengal went into the match in fine form , but could n't find a way through a resilient Hoddesdon defence .

In Auckland on a flying visit last week , French-born Laurent Esquier 's Kiwi connections go back to the halcyon days of KZ-7 , and the 1987 America 's Cup in Fremantle . Now CEO of the Challenger of Record for the 36th America 's Cup , Esquier is picking up where he left off with Grant Dalton and Kevin Shoebridge who now head up Emirates Team New Zealand . Both were under the tutelage of the uncompromising French coach during the long training days in the Indian Ocean as they wrestled with the nuances of 12 metres sailing and the Fremantle Doctor . After Michael Fay decided to winter over the Fremantle following the 1985 12 Metre World Championship , Esquier 's role as co-coach , in conjunction with Roy Dickson , was to bring the rookie team , up to speed for the Louis Vuitton Cup . " Le General " was one of the more polite nicknames the uncompromising Esquier earned that winter . They did the job with KZ-7 going through the Challenger Selection Series winning 37 races and losing only one , before being defeated in the Final by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ went on to rout the Australian Defender and return the Cup to the USA . " I started with Dalts a long time ago with Sir Michael Fay " , recalls Esquier . " The guy has done an unbelievable job . He 's just done an amazing job , " he repeats for added emphasis . For this event now - he is the best guy you could want . Of that , there is absolutely no doubt . " Since the close of the regular entry period on June 30 , there has been plenty of conjecture over the number of Challengers . While there are just three announced Challengers entered the 2021 America 's Cup which is well shy of the 13 Challengers and four Defence candidates of Fremantle . " There are at least three new teams which are knocking in the door , " counters Esquier . " But first they have to knock on the Trustee 's ( RNZYS ) door . We know there is strong interest registered by at least three teams . What that is going @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the interest is there . However , the deadline is getting pretty close , too . Soon we will see one way or the other . " In response to a question as to whether the new teams are " Super Teams " or are of the lower budget commercially funded variety , similar to Emirates Team New Zealand , Esquier says that he understands it is a mix . " But even if they are smaller teams , they will be solid teams - just because of the hefty Entry fees and Performance Bond , " he says . " The commitment to the America 's Cup World Series is very substantial , and then there is also the nationality rule . So , teams are entering for the right reasons . Put it that way . " A quick skim through the opening pages of the Protocol governing the 36th America 's Cup presented by Prada makes it apparent that the Auckland event is not one for those with short arms and deep pockets . For a late-entering team , the Entry Fees @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . In addition , there is a USD$300,000 entry fee for each America 's Cup World Series event , of which there are two in 2019 and three in 2020 . That is a hefty total of USD$5.5million including refundable Performance Bond . For the 1995 campaign , Sir Peter Blake ponied up with USD$75,000 of his personal funds to cover the entry fee . The flood of wannabes who failed to materialise as Cup Challengers in the Ellison era has resulted in the financial bar being lifted a lot higher for the 2021 America 's Cup . With the willingness of Emirates Team New Zealand to both supply a design package , and with the assent of the Challenger of Record the November 30 late entry deadline could be extended further . Of the three entries still waiting in the wings , Esquier says : " They have all read the Protocol . They have all talked back and forth . It is not a decision you make lightly . " Making an America 's Cup Entry is a big decision and a massive undertaking in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ backers . They have to be well thought out decisions , which takes time to endorse . No one has entered conditionally . But they have to do their paperwork , get it signed off , then put their money down . And away you go . " The teams are required to sail their AC75s in the lead-up America 's Cup World Series . " We will have the first World Series in Fall next year , as per the Protocol . Both events in 2019 will be in Italy . For 2020 , the circuit is not defined , but we are investigating locations , in Asia , in the Americas and Europe . " We will have a minimum of three ACWS events in 2020 . We are not sure where in Asia , but we will try and hit the East and West Coast of USA and Asia , and eventually get back to New Zealand between October and November of 2020 . " " The America 's Cup World Series will be fleet racing , as it is quicker to run @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ adds . Part of the rationale for the World Series events and their practice sessions is to get the crew up to speed as quickly as possible with the AC75s . " The AC75s are so different from the AC50 . There is so much unknown , I am not saying fear - but unknown in terms of the learning curve - not only foiling but tacking and gybing and so on . " I think the teams are keen to spend as much time on the water as possible and as much time seeing what the other guys are doing - including the Defender . The Defender is part of the World Series , and they need to see what is happening . So , you will find there is a lot of interest in racing the boats against each other . " With 11 America 's Cup campaigns in his logbook , Esquier sailed his first Challenger Selection Series for the America 's Cup with Baron Bich in 1974 at the age of 20 . " Before that , I was just a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ same time . I did my military service in the French navy . When you hit 18-21 years of age , you had to give one year to the military . Some of Baron Bich 's crew came directly from the sports battalions of the navy . " I carried a gun for a couple of months , and then I was back in the 12 Metres and never looked back . " Esquier was with the reclusive Bich in the 1974 , 1977 , and 1980 French campaigns , before switching to Dennis Conner 's Stars and Stripes in 1983 , because of the New York Yacht Club 's strict nationality rules he was only allowed to sail on the trial-horse . For his fifth America 's Cup campaign Esquier joined Challenge France in Fremantle - skippered by Yves Pajot and his Marseille-based team . " We set up camp next door to the Kiwis and ran out of money after a month and a half ! We had two boats and no cash ! It was a bit of a disaster , " he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the door and asked what we were doing . They wanted to use our space , so they cut a door through into the sail loft . I joined Michael 's team as a coach and helped with the coaching of the two crews . " After Fremantle , he stayed on with Michael Fay for the Big Boat campaign in 1988 . Then he switched to Italy 's Il Moro de Venezia in 1992 , which defeated the radical tandem keeled NZL-20 for the right to Challenge . Esquier was back with the Kiwis in 1995 as part of the Tag Heuer challenge in 1995 with Chris Dickson , making the Semi-Finals of the Louis Vuitton Cup . In Auckland , Esquier coached the Prada sponsored Luna Rossa in 2000 . The Italian team warded off ten other Challengers in the Louis Vuitton before being beaten 5-0 by Team New Zealand in their first defence . He went again with Luna Rossa Challenge in 2003 , before switching to BMW Oracle in 2007 in Valencia finishing third in the Louis Vuitton Cup . Then came a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he managed the various Louis Vuitton Trophy series sailed in supplied IACC yachts while Oracle and Alinghi slugged it out in the New York Supreme Court , before contesting a Court ordered Deed of Gift match sailed in massive 120ft multihulls . After a stint with the Artemis Racing , Esquier switched back to event management for the 34th America 's Cup in San Francisco . " Between then and now I was involved in high rise construction -- project managing a 20 storey building in the US before I started this job in November of 2017 , " he explains . " I live in Milan for work . I have a home in Jamestown , next to Newport , RI . We still try and keep a family life . " The combination of sailing , coaching , event management and construction experience , plus 40 years of acquiring America 's contacts and networks make Esquier well placed to head up the Challenger of Record organisation . Its responsibilities include the organisation of all preliminary events of the 36th America 's Cup presented by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ America 's Cup World Series , Christmas Race and the Challenger Selection Series for the Prada Cup . One of the young Kiwi sailors in that campaign was Grant Dalton , then a crew member on the trial boat , now CEO of Emirates Team New Zealand and also of America 's Cup Events ( ACE ) , the body responsible for organising the America 's Cup Match in Auckland . While there is historical sailing camaraderie , the two CEOs are now working together in the roles as ACE and COR , while the respective sailing teams will compete on the water . " First and foremost we have to create a level playing field for a fair regatta , so we can select the best Challenger to go after the Defender " , explains Esquier . " In parallel , we want to create a very friendly and accessible event . " One of the world 's leading fashion houses , Prada is the title sponsor for the 36th America 's Cup , as well as of Luna Rossa Challenge , representing the Circolo @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Record . The 36th edition of the Cup marks the second time that CVS has found itself as Challenger of Record . In 2015 , the Italians took on the role after Team Australia pulled out of the 35th America 's Cup . In a magnanimous gesture , Luna Rossa signed away their right of approval on any Protocol changes deferring instead to a Challenger democratic decision . Eight months later their generosity was rewarded by having the Challenger Committee go rogue and accept a Defender brokered deal that offered to switch to a smaller boat nine months after entries had closed . A bonus from that 3-2 vote also cut Auckland out of hosting the America 's Cup Qualifiers , allowing the teams to stay in Bermuda , and as a consequence unintended or otherwise , came within hours of financially taking out the eventual America 's Cup winner . Several times over the past 20 years , Luna Rossa and their Patron Patrizio Bertelli , who is also CEO of the Prada Group , have made a principled stand on how the America 's Cup @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and donor intent of the 19th century Deed of Gift that governs the conduct of America 's Cup . Few can expound those beliefs as succinctly as Patrizio Bertelli . He is the only Italian inducted into the America 's Cup Hall of Fame . " This time it is a different setup , and the Protocol is very specific " , Esquier explains keen not see a repeat of the events of March 31 , 2015 , the America 's Cup 's Day of Ignominy . " Everything which involves the regatta itself - on the water or the competition itself is between the Challenger of Record , which is not a Challenger Committee , and the Defender . " The Race Officials , the Umpires , the Measurers the Arbitration Panel - all those bodies which are governing and ensuring the fairness of the Regatta are endorsed by both the Challenger of Record and Defender . " " We do n't have a Challenger Committee any more with a majority vote . We try and keep everything as fair as possible . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the America 's Cup , but it seems the teams have finally tired of the one-upmanship that has been a feature of the America 's Cup since the inception of the event . " It is a different mindset with this Cup , " explains Esquier . " We do not have an ACEA/ACRM type management division as they had in Bermuda and San Francisco , but at the end of the day , we are still a Challenger of Record competing against the Defender . " Our job as Challengers is still to take the Cup away from the Defender . " " What I am saying is that we want to make this a proper event , at the right level and fair , and that we have digital tiebacks to the history and tradition of the event . " With Prada 's involvement as presenting sponsor , the America 's Cup village and environs will bring haute couture to the most prestigious event in sailing . " The Luna Rossa eleganza is going to be extended to the full venue in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " This includes the architecture , the shape and style and type of hospitality , the media centre , through to the merchandising . " On the water , we will also have a very strong Prada and Italian/European presence . We will be targeting an audience of millennials and aiming to grow the America 's Cup fan base by attracting younger fans . The fans will love it . " Many will remember the way the Auckland and New Zealand public embraced and celebrated the Italian influence in the 2000 America 's Cup when Luna Rossa was the hands-down Kiwi fan favourite in the Louis Vuitton Cup . Skipper Francesco de Angelis was voted second in a housewives ' poll to find New Zealand 's sexiest man . Later " el Duce " , as he was known , was recognised with a rare award for a foreigner in the New Zealand Honours list of that year . In Part 2 we hear how the America 's Cup Village will look and feel ; how the CoR sees the new SailGP fitting in and whether @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be and how fans will be able to view the Cups . |

" Esquier was with the reclusive Bich in the 1974 , 1977 , and 1980 French campaigns , before switching to Dennis Conner 's Stars and Stripes in 1983 , because of the New York Yacht Club 's strict nationality rules he was only allowed to sail on the trial-horse . For his fifth America 's Cup campaign Esquier joined Challenge France in Fremantle - skippered by Yves Pajot and his Marseille-based team . " We set up camp next door to the Kiwis and ran out of money after a month and a half ! We had two boats and no cash ! It was a bit of a disaster , " he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the door and asked what we were doing . They wanted to use our space , so they cut a door through into the sail loft . I joined Michael 's team as a coach and helped with the coaching of the two crews . " After Fremantle , he stayed on with Michael Fay for the Big Boat campaign in 1988 . Then he switched to Italy 's Il Moro de Venezia in 1992 , which defeated the radical tandem keeled NZL-20 for the right to Challenge . Esquier was back with the Kiwis in 1995 as part of the Tag Heuer challenge in 1995 with Chris Dickson , making the Semi-Finals of the Louis Vuitton Cup . In Auckland , Esquier coached the Prada sponsored Luna Rossa in 2000 . The Italian team warded off ten other Challengers in the Louis Vuitton before being beaten 5-0 by Team New Zealand in their first defence . He went again with Luna Rossa Challenge in 2003 , before switching to BMW Oracle in 2007 in Valencia finishing third in the Louis Vuitton Cup . Then came a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he managed the various Louis Vuitton Trophy series sailed in supplied IACC yachts while Oracle and Alinghi slugged it out in the New York Supreme Court , before contesting a Court ordered Deed of Gift match sailed in massive 120ft multihulls . After a stint with the Artemis Racing , Esquier switched back to event management for the 34th America 's Cup in San Francisco . " Between then and now I was involved in high rise construction -- project managing a 20 storey building in the US before I started this job in November of 2017 , " he explains . " I live in Milan for work . I have a home in Jamestown , next to Newport , RI . We still try and keep a family life . " The combination of sailing , coaching , event management and construction experience , plus 40 years of acquiring America 's contacts and networks make Esquier well placed to head up the Challenger of Record organisation . Its responsibilities include the organisation of all preliminary events of the 36th America 's Cup presented by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ America 's Cup World Series , Christmas Race and the Challenger Selection Series for the Prada Cup . One of the young Kiwi sailors in that campaign was Grant Dalton , then a crew member on the trial boat , now CEO of Emirates Team New Zealand and also of America 's Cup Events ( ACE ) , the body responsible for organising the America 's Cup Match in Auckland . While there is historical sailing camaraderie , the two CEOs are now working together in the roles as ACE and COR , while the respective sailing teams will compete on the water . " First and foremost we have to create a level playing field for a fair regatta , so we can select the best Challenger to go after the Defender " , explains Esquier . " In parallel , we want to create a very friendly and accessible event . " One of the world 's leading fashion houses , Prada is the title sponsor for the 36th America 's Cup , as well as of Luna Rossa Challenge , representing the Circolo @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Record . The 36th edition of the Cup marks the second time that CVS has found itself as Challenger of Record . In 2015 , the Italians took on the role after Team Australia pulled out of the 35th America 's Cup . In a magnanimous gesture , Luna Rossa signed away their right of approval on any Protocol changes deferring instead to a Challenger democratic decision . Eight months later their generosity was rewarded by having the Challenger Committee go rogue and accept a Defender brokered deal that offered to switch to a smaller boat nine months after entries had closed . A bonus from that 3-2 vote also cut Auckland out of hosting the America 's Cup Qualifiers , allowing the teams to stay in Bermuda , and as a consequence unintended or otherwise , came within hours of financially taking out the eventual America 's Cup winner . Several times over the past 20 years , Luna Rossa and their Patron Patrizio Bertelli , who is also CEO of the Prada Group , have made a principled stand on how the America 's Cup @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and donor intent of the 19th century Deed of Gift that governs the conduct of America 's Cup . Few can expound those beliefs as succinctly as Patrizio Bertelli . He is the only Italian inducted into the America 's Cup Hall of Fame . " This time it is a different setup , and the Protocol is very specific " , Esquier explains keen not see a repeat of the events of March 31 , 2015 , the America 's Cup 's Day of Ignominy . " Everything which involves the regatta itself - on the water or the competition itself is between the Challenger of Record , which is not a Challenger Committee , and the Defender . " The Race Officials , the Umpires , the Measurers the Arbitration Panel - all those bodies which are governing and ensuring the fairness of the Regatta are endorsed by both the Challenger of Record and Defender . " " We do n't have a Challenger Committee any more with a majority vote . We try and keep everything as fair as possible . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the America 's Cup , but it seems the teams have finally tired of the one-upmanship that has been a feature of the America 's Cup since the inception of the event . " It is a different mindset with this Cup , " explains Esquier . " We do not have an ACEA/ACRM type management division as they had in Bermuda and San Francisco , but at the end of the day , we are still a Challenger of Record competing against the Defender . " Our job as Challengers is still to take the Cup away from the Defender . " " What I am saying is that we want to make this a proper event , at the right level and fair , and that we have digital tiebacks to the history and tradition of the event . " With Prada 's involvement as presenting sponsor , the America 's Cup village and environs will bring haute couture to the most prestigious event in sailing . " The Luna Rossa eleganza is going to be extended to the full venue in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " This includes the architecture , the shape and style and type of hospitality , the media centre , through to the merchandising . " On the water , we will also have a very strong Prada and Italian/European presence . We will be targeting an audience of millennials and aiming to grow the America 's Cup fan base by attracting younger fans . The fans will love it . " Many will remember the way the Auckland and New Zealand public embraced and celebrated the Italian influence in the 2000 America 's Cup when Luna Rossa was the hands-down Kiwi fan favourite in the Louis Vuitton Cup . Skipper Francesco de Angelis was voted second in a housewives ' poll to find New Zealand 's sexiest man . Later " el Duce " , as he was known , was recognised with a rare award for a foreigner in the New Zealand Honours list of that year . In Part 2 we hear how the America 's Cup Village will look and feel ; how the CoR sees the new SailGP fitting in and whether @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be and how fans will be able to view the Cups . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pulled out of attending the wedding' involves 'pulled out of' followed by a gerund, but the subject 'her father' is not causing an object to move or preventing an action in the way described by the construction. Instead, it simply describes the father's decision not to attend the wedding.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are having their first baby due in the Spring of next year , Palace reveals Meghan is in ' good health ' and they have had a successful 12 week scan - suggesting baby due in late April Her mother Doria Ragland was seen taking baby-care classes in California and could move to the UK to help But it appears unlikely the royal couple have contacted Meghan 's estranged father Thomas to give him news Harry and Meghan made the announcement after they touched down on Qantas flight to Sydney this morning Prince gave first interview since news today in Australia , but did n't disclose details about wife 's pregnancy The royals arrived in Australia for their first major international tour since they were married in late May They will also visit Fiji , Tonga and New Zealand , with the main event this year 's Invictus Games held in Sydney But Meghan will go to south Pacific islands despite the risk of getting the Zika virus from the mosquitoes Couple in Ireland at time of conception and Harry was asked : ' When are you and Meghan going to get going ? ' Harry and Meghan told Her Majesty she would be having her eighth great-grandchild next spring during Princess Eugenie 's wedding to Jack Brooksbank at Windsor Castle on Friday . Today the couple were seen beaming as they touched down in Sydney to start their three-week tour of Australia , New Zealand , Fiji and Tonga - their first major international trip since they married in May . They were later photographed holding hands in the grounds of Admiralty House , where the Queen stays Down Under , when their happy news was announced to the world . Harry today gave his first TV interview since the news went public with ABC 's Australian Story , but could not be tempted to disclose any new details . Instead , he focused on the importance of the Invictus Games , which starts in Sydney next week . Meghan , 37 , is in ' good health ' and has had a successful 12 week scan - meaning the child was conceived between their mid-July tour of Ireland and her birthday on August 4 , when Prince Harry was best man at the wedding of Charlie van Straubenzee . The royal baby is due in late April 2019 , possibly around St George 's Day , April 23 , meaning the child , who will be seventh in line to the throne behind Harry , could share a birthday with its cousin Prince Louis . Announcing their baby news Kensington Palace said today : ' Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Sussex is expecting a baby in the Spring of 2019 . Their Royal Highnesses have appreciated all of the support they have received from people around the world since their wedding in May and are delighted to be able to share this happy news with the public ' . The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh have said they are ' delighted ' to be welcoming their eighth great-grandchild in a joint statement with Prince Charles , who will have four grandchildren when baby Sussex is born next year . Prince William and his wife Kate also hailed his brother and sister-in-law 's good news . Meghan Markle laughs and says hello as the royal couple got off a plane in Sydney today for their first major royal tour since they got married - and announced they are having their first baby hours later The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were spotted hand in hand wandering the grounds of Sydney 's Admiralty House as the world was told their good news The Duchess of Sussex , 37 , was holding hands with her husband , 34 , was dressed casually for the occasion as she donned a black turtle-neck top , with a dark-coloured blazer she wore last week Meghan Markle was carrying two purple folders as she stepped off the plane and used they to cover her stomach , which led to rumours that she was carrying a baby The baby news was released in a statement by Kensington Palace this morning ( pictured ) and the baby is due in Spring 2019 The news was also tweeted by the couple 's official account ( pictured ) sending social media into a frenzy at 8.40am UK time Share 125k shares Last month Meghan 's mother Doria Ragland was seen taking baby-care classes in Pasadena , California , and could now move to London permanently to help look after the child because Meghan may not want to hire a nanny . The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will still visit Tonga and Fiji during their 16-day royal tour despite fears over the Zika virus , it was confirmed today . It goes against travel advice that pregnant women should consider not travelling to the countries because of the ' moderate risk ' of catching the tropical disease . But Kensington Palace said the couple had sought medical advice and decided to continue with their plans , with no change expected to their itinerary . Zika can endanger unborn babies , with pregnant women being advised to avoid all travel to areas where cases of the mosquito-borne virus have been reported . The virus - which had an outbreak in Brazil in 2016 - can cause microcephaly for children in the womb , causing babies to be born with abnormally small skulls . For Fiji and Tonga , the National Travel Health Network and Centre advises pregnant women to ' consider postponing non-essential travel until after the pregnancy ' . Official advice from the UK 's Foreign and Commonwealth Office also tells couples visiting Zika areas to use condoms for sex to prevent transmission of the virus . Couples should also follow guidance on avoiding transmitting Zika through other forms of sexual contact - and avoid conception while travelling and for up to six months on return . The NHS advises tourists to Fiji and Tonga to take steps to avoid mosquito bites , ensure they have adequate insurance and seek health advice before travelling . These facts had previously led some sources to believe that Meghan might have pulled out of the trip if she fell pregnant . But a royal source told the Daily Mirror : ' The Duke and Duchess will have taken advice at the highest level . Every precaution will be taken . The royal couple 's health is naturally of the utmost importance . ' Ms Ragland today issued a statement saying she was ' very happy at this lovely news and is looking forward to welcoming her first grandchild ' . But Harry and Meghan are unlikely to have told her estranged father Thomas Markle in advance because of the rift over his failure to walk her down the aisle . Today Meghan and Harry landed in Australia on a normal commercial Qantas passenger flight and chose an Airbus A380 . It has a higher cabin pressure and half the cabin noise of other aircraft to ensure a more restful journey for the newly-pregnant Duchess . And rumours she is carrying a baby went into overdrive as soon as the former actress got off the plane in Sydney because she kept touching her stomach and later covered her midriff with a folder . The new royal baby is expected to take the surname Sussex in the same way that Prince William 's children , George , Charlotte and Louis have taken his title Cambridge as their last name at school and nursery . But the Duke and Duchess of Sussex 's baby will not be a prince nor a princess unless the Queen steps in . Social media exploded as the news was announced at 8.40am UK time and some have named the child a ' Brexit Baby ' - because it will be born shortly after Britain leaves the EU on March 29 . The Duke and Duchess of Sussex 's baby will have a host of American relatives he or she is unlikely to see much of , if at all , because of a series of public rows . While Meghan is close to her mother Doria Ragland , the remainder of her family did not attend her star-studded royal wedding five months ago . And the Markles have slung a barrage of insults at Meghan and the Windsors after being supposedly cut out of the Duchess 's life . Her father Thomas Markle pulled out of walking his daughter down the aisle at the last minute after being caught posing for staged paparazzi photographs and reportedly falling ill . He went on to sell his story to the press , appearing on Good Morning Britain to reveal how Meghan , whom he calls by the nickname Bean , cried when he said he could not attend her big day . He also indiscreetly shared conversations he had with Harry about Donald Trump and Brexit , and said he expected Harry and Meghan to have children soon . Mr Markle , who has yet to meet Harry face to face , complained Meghan had cut him off and not contacted him since the wedding . He declared how it might be easier for his daughter if he died , and said he put the phone down on Harry after a heated discussion and likened the royal family to a ' cult ' . Unless Doria Ragland has told him their daughter is pregnant it appears very unlikely that Harry and Meghan will have done so . The Duchess of Sussex was glowing as she stepped-in to a car at Sydney airport , which took the couple to Admiralty House , the Governor-General 's Sydney residence , where the pair will spend the night As Meghan stepped-in to her awaiting car , she found time to wave to the crowd which had gathered to welcome the Royal couple to Australia but the folders remained covering her midriff Meghan was all smiles as she touched down on Australian soil for the first time , having flown in from London via Singapore overnight on a commercial Qantas flight Harry and Meghan attended the wedding of his cousin Princess Eugenie on Friday in Windsor ( pictured ) - where they told the Queen and the royal family they were expecting and she was wearing a wide fitting coat The Queen beamed with joy after seeing her granddaughter Eugenie marry at Windsor on Friday - and later that day Meghan and Harry told Her Majesy they were expecting their first baby Baby Sussex would become seventh in line to the throne but very unlikely to become monarch The Duke and Duchess of Sussex ' s child will be seventh-in-line to the British throne . The child will come behind his or her father Prince Harry in the line of succession , bumping his uncle , the Duke of York , further down the line into eighth place . However the child will not be given the title of prince or princess unless the Queen steps into change the rules . Instead a son would be styled the Earl of Dumbarton , while a daughter would be Lady ( first name ) Mountbatten-Windsor . Kensington Palace announced today the Duchess of Sussex is pregnant with her first child . The baby is expected in Spring next year . The baby will bump Harry 's uncle the Duke of York into eighth place in the line of succession . Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie move into ninth and 10th place , and the Earl of Wessex - the Queen 's youngest son - drops out of the top 10 for the first time to 11th in line . Today Meghan and Harry started a 16-day tour of Australasia . But their trip to Fiji and Tonga next week will go ahead despite advice that pregnant women should not travel to the region because of its moderate Zika risk . The couple said today they had sought medical and advice and decided to go ahead with their plans . The Duchess of Sussex is believed to have become pregnant around ten weeks after they married at Windsor Castle in May and on or just after their trip to Ireland in July . Meghan is believed to have had her 12-week scan last week , meaning the couple went on a two-day visit across the Irish Sea around the time they were trying for a baby . In one extraordinary exchange in Dublin , Harry was asked about it directly as he met people in the city . One woman was heard asking him : ' My husband also has red hair and he gave me five children - when are you and Meghan going to get going ? ' - Harry laughed and replied : ' Five children ? Too many ' . Both Harry and Meghan have spoken openly about wanting to start a family . The topic cropped up in their engagement interview , with Harry , saying : ' Hopefully we 'll start a family in the near future . ' The pair are also known for their warm , caring approach when meeting youngsters on official visits . Even the duchess 's father Thomas Markle , whom she is believed not to have spoken to since her wedding , said he expected children soon . Mr Markle is not believed to have been told the news in advance of today 's announcement . He told ITV 's Good Morning Britain in an interview a month after the duke and duchess married : ' She 's wanted children for a long time and when she met Harry and she spoke about how much she loves him , there 's got to be a child in the making , somewhere soon . ' Announcing their baby news Kensington Palace said today : ' Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Sussex is expecting a baby in the Spring of 2019 . Their Royal Highnesses have appreciated all of the support they have received from people around the world since their wedding in May and are delighted to be able to share this happy news with the public ' . Meghan and Harry are embarking on their first proper royal tour together . They were spotted walking hand in hand enjoying the grounds of Sydney 's Admiralty House - just after announcing their pregnancy . Despite the long-haul flight from the UK , the Royal couple had beaming smiles when they disembarked the A380 aircraft in Sydney today The Duke and Duchess of Sussex ( pictured in Sydney today ) will have a low-key start to their tour , with official duties not starting until Tuesday and centred around Sydney Prince Harry gives a wave as he is whisked through Sydney on Monday morning to start his 16-day tour of Australia and the South Pacific The Duke of Sussex ( pictured left and right today ) and his wife will attend 76 engagements across Australia , New Zealand , Fiji and Tonga A beaming Meghan Markle ( pictured centre ) is pictured arriving in Australia for the first time .

Doria Ragland said she was ' very happy about this lovely news ' and ' looks forward to welcoming her first grandchild ' . Her only daughter today revealed she and her husband Prince Harry will welcome their baby in Spring 2019 . Announcing their baby news , Kensington Palace said today : ' Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Sussex is expecting a baby in the Spring of 2019 . ' Their Royal Highnesses have appreciated all of the support they have received from people around the world since their wedding in May and are delighted to be able to share this happy news with the public ' . Last month Meghan 's mother Doria was also seen taking baby-care classes in Pasadena , California and royal sources have said she may move to London from the US to help her look after the baby because Meghan does not want to hire a nanny . Ms Ragland issued a statement saying she was ' very happy at this lovely news and is looking forward to welcoming her first grandchild ' - but Kensington Palace declined to comment on whether her father , Thomas Markle , had been told . The Royal couple arrived on a Qantas A380 flight from London via Singapore , for their first major international tour since their world-stopping nuptials . They shunned a private jet to travel on flight Qantas flight QF2 from London via Singapore . The couple were in the first class cabin but non-royal passengers were also with them with one saying they were heard saying how ' excited ' they were to be travelling to Australia . With them was their entourage of 10 staff members , including press secretaries and a hairdresser , and several more security staff . Royal fans already suspected the Duchess was pregnant after she wore a suspiciously wide-fitting Givenchy coat to Princess Eugenie 's royal wedding on Friday . Many TV viewers were sure they could see a baby-bump beneath her long , navy blue coat as the Duchess was whisked into St George 's Chapel , Windsor by her doting husband . The couple held hands when they arrived in Sydney early on Monday morning on a Qantas A380 flight from London via Singapore . Meghan was wearing her favourite Sarah Flint heels , which she teamed with the two tone coat she wore in a photo of her and Harry posing with the official 2018 Invictus Games flag last week . Earlier she sparked a storm of pregnancy speculation after she touched down in Sydney clutching two purple folders in front of her stomach . Meghan Markle was seen holding the items in her right arm as she stepped off the plane on Monday morning with Prince Harry , leaving fans of the Royal couple guessing what information they could contain . For many , the folders added to speculation Meghan Markle is expecting a baby , fuelling the fire already stoked by the large blue coat she wore at Princess Eugenie 's wedding last week . The couple returned to their own wedding venue at Windsor Castle on Friday but missed a lavish second day of celebrations on Saturday because of their flight to Australia . Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are pictured arriving at Admiralty House in Sydney 's Kirribilli as keen Royal watchers look on The motorcade carrying Prince Harry , the Duke of Sussex , and his wife Meghan , the Duchess of Sussex , makes its way through peak hour traffic on Sydney 's Eastern Distributor on Monday morning There is already fevered excitement as to what Meghan and Harry will call their first-born . Prince Harry and Meghan Markle 's first child , expected in Spring 2019 , will be seventh in line to the throne . Bookmakers have already revealed the odds on the Queen 's eight great-grandchild will be called , with Victoria , Albert and Arthur among the favourites . There is also a chance Harry will want to call the baby Diana after his mother . Boys ' names : Albert 10/1 Arthur 10/1 Phillip 10/1 Alfred 16/1 Charles 16/1 Girls ' names : Victoria 8/1 Alice 12/1 Diana 16/1 Elizabeth 16/1 Mary 16/1 Today Prince Harry , who wore a grey jumper over a smart shirt , held his wife 's hand as they left Sydney 's airport terminal after arriving down under . They were then whisked off to Admiralty House , the Governor-General 's sprawling Sydney harbourside residence , where the couple are staying tonight . While a heavy police presence greeted the couple at Sydney Airport ready to whisk them away , the pair will have a low-key start to their Australian tour , with official duties not starting until Tuesday giving them time to rest after the long-haul flight . The Duke and Duchess arrived with a ten-person entourage in tow , which is believed to include press secretaries and a hairdresser . Meghan 's best friend and stylist Jessica Mulroney is also expected to join the couple on the tour . Jessica and her husband Ben are expected to fly from Toronto to Sydney to join Harry and Meghan in an ' unofficial ' capacity - meaning they will pay their own expenses . The Duchess could be expected to have to change outfits three times a day on the tour , and may turn to Jessica for help . A crowd of Royal fans turned out in the rain outside the Kirribilli address to welcome the pair . But the streets of the suburb did not quite match up to the glamour as the visiting royal couple were greeted by discarded mattresses , chairs , milk crates , and pieces of carpet . Despite the arrival day being organised months in advance , it coincided with one of North Sydney Council 's fortnightly household waste collections , which meant battered goofs were left strewn on the streets as their car went by . Prince Harry appeared to take some time out on Monday during his trip to Admiralty House , spotted perched on a step alongside a man believed to be a security guard ( pictured ) The Royal Standard appears in the grounds of Admiralty House in Sydney , as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle take up residence for their Royal tour of Australia Prince Harry and Meghan will also visit Dubbo , in the New South Wales central west , Melbourne and Fraser Island in Queensland on their Australian tour , which is Meghan 's first visit to the country . Flying from London to Sydney is a tiring journey , but The Duchess of Sussex was in the best possible cabin for the 23-hour trip -- first class in a Qantas A380 ( file picture ) . It produces 50 per cent less cabin noise than a 747 and has cabin air pressure that 's equivalent to an altitude of 1,500 metres ( 5,000ft ) . The 747 's is 2,500 metres ( 8,000ft ) . Plus , cabin air is recycled every two minutes to keep the atmosphere fresh . Then there 's the Qantas touch . Meghan would have been in an ' expansive armchair ' that converts to a fully flat bed . Cabin crew would have given her a pillow menu , a 100 per cent cotton woven throw , a duvet and a memory foam mattress . And cotton pyjamas with matching slippers . She would also have been able to enjoy an in-seat massage at the touch of a button and pressed another one to lower and raise the window blinds . It 's definitely an aircraft fit for pregnant royalty . They will spend a week in the country and then on Tuesday , October 23 they will head to Fiji for two days and then on to Tonga before returning to Australia . On Sunday , October 28 they will cross the Tasman Sea to New Zealand , visiting Wellington , the Abel Tasman National Park , Auckland and Rotorua before heading home on Wednesday , October 31 . ' The programme across these four Commonwealth countries will focus on youth leadership , environmental and conservation efforts , including the dedication of several new Queen 's Commonwealth Canopy projects , and the recovery and rehabilitation of servicemen and women through the Invictus Games Sydney 2018 , ' the palace said in a short statement when announcing the tour itinerary . The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will attend 76 engagements across the four countries , including the Invictus Games in Sydney , which runs from October 20 and October 28 . Prince Harry founded the sporting event , which gives sick and injured service personnel and veterans the opportunity to compete in sports such as wheelchair basketball and sitting volleyball , in 2014 . The couple will mark the games ' launch and closing ceremony . And to officially welcome the Invictus Games to the city , Prince Harry , prime minister Scott Morrison and athletes will scale the Sydney Harbour Bridge to plant the Invictus flag . Among the other highlights of their tour will be a visit to the world-renowned Taronga Zoo , in Sydney , where they will meet two koalas and their joeys . The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge visited the zoo with Prince George during their royal tour in 2014 . Elsewhere the couple will visit Australian farmers struck by drought . The couple 's arrival in Australia comes just days after they attended the wedding of Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank where they told close family their happy news . Revealed : How Meghan and Harry 's baby will be SEVENTH in line to the throne - but WO N'T be a prince or princess The Duke and Duchess of Sussex 's child will be seventh-in-line to the British throne . The child will come behind his or her father Prince Harry in the line of succession , bumping his uncle , the Duke of York , further down the line into eighth place .

The baby will be a great-grandchild of the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh , and the Prince of Wales 's grandchild and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge 's niece or nephew . Will he or she ever be monarch ? Unlikely . The baby will have three cousins Prince George - a future king - and Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis , who are further up the line of succession , so it is a safe bet that throne will stay on the Cambridge side of the family . What will the baby be called ? William and Kate chose royal favourites for their children . But will Harry and American-born Meghan go classic or break the royal mould when naming their baby ? If they stay traditional , something like Alice , Mary , Elizabeth or Victoria for a girl , and James , Philip , Frederick or Arthur for a boy are possibilities . In the US , the most popular name for a baby girl is Emma and Liam for a baby boy . Will the baby be a prince or princess ? No they will not be a prince nor a princess , nor an HRH because George V limited titles within the Royal Family in 1917 . So what will their title be ? A son would be known as Earl of Dumbarton - because a first son of a duke is allowed to use one of his father 's other lesser titles as a courtesy title . Harry was also made the Earl of Dumbarton on the morning of his wedding , as well as being given a dukedom . A daughter would be Lady ( first name ) Mountbatten-Windsor . But the Queen could change this ? Yes . The Queen stepped in ahead of George 's birth to issue a Letters Patent to ensure the Cambridges ' children had fitting titles , but this royal baby is much further down the line of succession . Will Harry and Meghan hire a nanny ? Harry has been close to all his nannies and it is likely he and Meghan will arrange for a nanny to care for their baby while they are on official engagements Kate and William have the help of their full-time live-in nanny Maria Teresa Turrion Borrallo . But Meghan 's mother Doria has been seen attending baby care classes , suggesting that she may move to the UK to help out . When and where will the baby be born ? Kate had three successful deliveries at the private Lindo Wing in St Mary 's Hospital , Paddington , so Meghan might follow her sister-in-law 's lead . Harry was also born there in 1984 . It is close to Kensington Palace and well practised at dealing with royal births , and the publicity surrounding them . But Meghan could do down a different path and have a home birth . Will the baby have dual citizenship ? Harry and Meghan could apply for their child to have dual US-UK citizenship . Meghan is planning to become a British citizen - but it is not known whether she will hold dual nationality , and at present is still a US citizen . Kensington Palace announced today the Duchess of Sussex is pregnant with her first child . The baby is expected in Spring next year . The happy news was announced hours after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex touched down in Sydney for their first major international tour since their wedding in May . A Kensington Palace said : ' Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Sussex is expecting a baby in the Spring of 2019 . ' Their Royal Highnesses have appreciated all of the support they have received from people around the world since their wedding in May and are delighted to be able to share this happy news with the public . ' The Queen , the Duke of Edinburgh , Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were told in person at the wedding of Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank at Windsor Castle last Friday . Rumours were rife that Meghan may be pregnant after her mother Doria Ragland was seen taking baby-care classes in Pasadena with a view to looking after her new grandchild . The duchess has also been seen in a number of looser-fitting outfits over recent weeks . The new royal baby is expected to take the surname Sussex in the same way that Prince William 's children , George , Charlotte and Louis have taken his title Cambridge as their last name at school and nursery . The baby will supersede Prince Andrew in the line of succession , regardless of whether they are a boy or a girl , following a 2011 change in law that granted the same status to sons and daughters . However as the second son of the current Prince of Wales , Harry 's children are not automatically given the title of prince or princess . King George V - Harry 's great great grandfather - limited titles within the royal family in 1917 . This means Harry and Meghan 's first born , as a great-grandchild of the sovereign , is too far down the line of succession to be an HRH . George V declared that : ' the grandchildren of the sons of any such Sovereign in the direct male line ( save only the eldest living son of the eldest son of the Prince of Wales ) shall have and enjoy in all occasions the style and title enjoyed by the children of Dukes of these Our Realms . ' The eldest son and heir apparent of a duke can use one of his father 's lesser grade peerage titles by courtesy , according to Debrett 's . So a first son of Harry 's would become Earl of Dumbarton - one of the subsidiary titles Harry received from the Queen on the morning of his wedding . A daughter would be Lady ( first name ) Mountbatten-Windsor , and any subsequent sons Lord ( first name ) Mounbatten-Windsor . But the Queen could make changes to allow Harry and Meghan 's children to be HRHs and princes and princesses . Ahead of Prince George 's birth , the monarch issued a Letters Patent to ensure the Cambridge children had fitting titles . Without this Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis would have been a Lady and a Lord instead , but Prince George , as the eldest son of the eldest son of the Prince of Wales , would still have been a prince . The Queen could decide to do the same for Harry and Meghan 's baby . The Earl and Countess of Wessex 's children Lady Louise Mountbatten-Windsor and Viscount Severn are actually entitled to be a princess and prince as children of the son of the sovereign . But the couple decided , with the Queen 's agreement , that their children would use the courtesy titles as sons or daughters of an earl rather than the style prince or princess . The Duke and Duchess of Sussex announced their engagement in November 2017 , shortly after confirming their relationship . The couple married at St George 's Chapel , Windsor Castle , in May this year . Harry and Meghan were at Eugenie and Jack 's wedding in Windsor last Friday They attended ceremony and reception and told senior royals about pregnancy The couple arrived in Sydney today ahead of their hotly-anticipated 16-day tour Duchess of York tweeted about Eugenie 's wedding as pregnancy was revealed Princess Eugenie 's mother today tweeted a picture of her royal wedding outfit at the exact moment the Duke and Duchess of Sussex announced they were having a baby .

She then posted three further messages saying how ' proud ' she was of her daughter and new son-in-law Jack Brooksbank - but made no mention of Harry and Meghan .

But the Clarence House Twitter account - which represents the Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall - did retweet the Kensington Palace baby announcement . Senior royals attending Eugenie 's wedding at Windsor Castle last Friday were told by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle that they were expecting their first child . It comes after Prince Andrew rejected calls from within Buckingham Palace for a more modest wedding for Eugenie and Jack amid concerns about the public cost . Eugenie and Jack 's wedding last Friday was a lavish and star-studded affair , with celebrities from Robbie Williams to Demi Moore and Naomi Campbell to Pixie Geldof .

However as the second son of the current Prince of Wales , Harry 's children are not automatically given the title of prince or princess . The royal cover-up : How Meghan used subtle styling tricks to hide her baby bump - from structured coats to peplum tops and clever draping The Duchess of Sussex hid her growing baby bump with a series of clever styling tricks , MailOnline can reveal . Meghan , who announced her pregnancy this morning via Kensington Palace , is already in her second trimester but has managed to keep her news under wraps thanks to some carefully-planned fashion hacks . She will no doubt have sought the advice from her stylist and confidante Jessica Mulroney , a mother-of-three who is joining her on her first major overseas tour with Prince Harry this week . Touching down in Sydney on Monday , just hours before her happy news was announced , fans could n't help but notice the strategically-placed plastic folders Meghan was clutching to her chest . What baby bump ? Just hours before Harry and Meghan 's happy news was announced this morning , fans could n't help but notice the strategically-placed plastic folders the Duchess was clutching to her chest after touching down in Sydney in an oversized coat and polo neck Meghan 's choice of outfit for Princess Eugenie 's wedding - a structured A-line Givenchy coat - sent the rumour mill spinning as fans noticed she appeared to have deliberately covered up her frame ( pictured with the Queen and Prince Harry outside St. George 's Chapel ) But it was her choice of clothing that was the most telling , with the Duchess - once a fan of figure-hugging silhouettes - wrapping up in a turtleneck jumper and oversized navy coat . Likewise , her choice of outfit for Princess Eugenie 's wedding last week - a structured A-line Givenchy coat - sent the rumour mill spinning as fans noticed she appeared to have deliberately covered up her frame . Coincidentally , it was also the day that Meghan and Harry chose to share their happy news with the rest of the family . Celebrity stylist Lucas Armitage told Femail : ' We are so used to seeing Meghan in form-fitting apparel , it was hard not to speculate that a new arrival was imminent when she recently started to sport baggier items . ' The use of knee-length coats has cleverly helped Meghan avoid speculation and , as it 's now very much the autumnal season , the use of long oversized coats did n't arouse suspicion . Earlier this month , Meghan visited Sussex in a businesslike bottle-green ensemble but was careful to drape a structured coat over the top to carefully conceal her silhouette ( pictured with Prince harry at Edes House in Chichester on 3 October ) Careful planning : Meghan wore a draped Givenchy dress at the Royal Academy of Arts in September ( left ) and an Oscar de la Renta peplum top in Loughborough in September ( right ) ' I particularly like the navy coat which Meghan wore in Sydney today and styling it how she has ; by doing up the top two buttons and allowing the rest to move freely away from her body to create drape and disguise any bump . ' It 's also interesting to see how she keeps her legs on show even when wearing heavy coats - another styling trick to making her look less covered and avoid speculation . ' The Duchess is at least three months into her first pregnancy , and has already had a successful 12 week scan - suggesting that she fell pregnant around mid-July . Covering up : Meghan wore an oversized blue coat for the launch of a charity cookbook at Kensington Palace last month ( pictured with Prince Harry and mother Doria Ragland , who said today she was ' very happy ' about the couple 's pregnancy news and may move to the UK ) Baby blue ? The Duchess of Sussex wore a baggy Jason Wu number when she joined Prince Harry at a gala music evening in September - sending the baby rumour mill into overdrive While any baby bump will not have been visible until recently , the mother-to-be has been careful to avoid fuelling speculation by keeping her tummy firmly covered . Earlier this month , she visited Sussex in a businesslike bottle-green ensemble but was careful to drape a structured coat over the top to carefully conceal her silhouette . Likewise , a draped Givenchy dress she wore to the Royal Academy of Arts in September and a peplum Oscar de la Renta top she wore in Loughborough , worked wonders to hide her midriff . Meghan 's mother Doria Ragland - said to be planning a permanent move to the UK - said in a statement she was ' very happy about this lovely news ' and ' looks forward to welcoming her first grandchild ' .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves an intransitive verb 'coming' with no NP object and the phrase 'out of advertising or media' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Eric Randall , director at Bryson Recycling , takes his work home with him . He says his 25 years at the recycling social enterprise has been more than just a job . It 's a vocation . " I cycled to work this morning and I have solar panels on my roof , " he says , reaffirming that commitment . A keen birdwatcher , Eric says he 's always been interested in nature and the environment . And if he was n't running the recycling enterprise here that posted a turnover of ? 13.5m last year , he 'd be the warden of a nature reserve . " The programmes that show chicks starving on the beach and eating small pieces of plastic instead of squid , that really connects with me . I 'm watching those birds and I think their quality of life is important to our enjoyment of life . Wildlife and nature is in my blood , " he says . Born in Durban , South Africa , Eric relocated to England with his family when he was eight years old . A string of moves around the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Brighton . Eric went on to study environmental science at university in Bradford . It was a course that set him up for one final move in 1993 to Northern Ireland where Bryson Recycling was being launched . And today he is at the helm of a team that has revolutionised the way Northern Ireland processes household waste . When Eric joined the enterprise on the Ormeau Road in Belfast 25 years ago , it was just about to embark on a campaign that would seek to change the mindset of consumers here . " I came in to set up Cash for Cans , a scheme that started out with three Government-funded trainees , " he says . " It saw vans parked in supermarkets where consumers would receive a penny for every can they recycled . It was a popular project and got a huge amount of backing . " But then it became apparent to us that we had to do something different to encourage recycling because aluminium was getting light and it was harder to get cash for it because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Mounting pressure to find alternative means to boost recycling and to meet incoming EU laws meant Northern Ireland had to act fast to shift its recycling psyche . And Bryson was the firm that helped local councils here achieve that . " There was a lot of activity happening elsewhere in the UK and EU directives were coming through and they were going to impact on us , so we were able to get a grant and carry out a feasibility study on how household recycling could be introduced . " The study took place in the year 2000 after which a trial began . It was a door-to-door collection service , a pilot kerbside pickup scheme that began servicing 8,000 households using electric vehicles . " We were really ahead of ourselves , " says Eric , referencing those alternatively-fuelled vehicles . " I apologise to all those drivers on the Ballygowan Road for the delays we caused . They were a bit like milk floats which are designed to off-load weight whereas we were picking up weight so we could n't have gone over 20mph @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for the trial but in no way did they impact on the success that service reaped . " As a result of those trials in 2004/05 , when councils realised they had to do something , we picked up contract after contract . We won all the early door-to-door services and now we run a plant that separates and processes that recycling , " Eric says . Those early initiatives have made Bryson Recycling the largest social enterprise recycler in the UK today , employing more than 280 staff . And the company now delivers its services across all of Northern Ireland , parts of Donegal and North Wales . It services 1.8m households and collects recyclables from more than 500 businesses and schools here . Over its lifetime it has recycled more than 675,000 tonnes of materials , not just aluminium . Bryson can cater for various types of household recycling materials , with the most recent trend seeing an increase in plastic reprocessing . Last year alone it processed more than 212m plastic items . Eric says that on a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ plastic , which is packed in 350kg cubes that are piled at the site in nouveau art-like bales . He paints a picture to describe the vastness of what NI is now recycling daily there : " It would fill one-and-a-half 40ft articulated lorries per day . " It 's a major step forward from the days when households had to receive payment to encourage recycling and that 's not only thanks to accessibility to services but campaigns and media that have highlighted the damage household waste is inflicting on the planet , Eric informs . These include the critically acclaimed Blue Planet television programme , narrated by Sir David Attenborough . " That show increased awareness about plastics and it encouraged people to recycle more and offered us the opportunity to boost our recycling rates . " There is only one other time that I can recall when something coming out of advertising or media had such a profound effect on the general psyche of recycling . " After Blue Planet aired we saw the amount of plastic we recycled jump up by 25% . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ items every day . And today I think now people inherently feel sympathetic towards environmental issues . " Among Bryson 's latest initiatives is its Kerbside Wheelie Box collection that allows for separation of a range of recyclable items , from paper and batteries to old hand tools and drinks cans . It 's currently available across five different council areas . Its mission today is also to champion a circular economy approach to recycling in Northern Ireland with more than 80% of materials collected going to local reprocessing companies , which sustains around 1,000 jobs locally . Huhtamaki , Cherry Pipes and Encirc all reprocess materials collected by Bryson . This collaborative approach with three reprocessors and a number of councils adds more than ? 100m every year to the NI economy and Bryson has ambitions to increase this by a further 50% in coming years . It 's revolutionary and , as Eric sits down with his recycling lorry-shaped 25th anniversary cake , we ask if he is happy with the outcome of a quarter century 's work . Have Northern Ireland households done @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? He says yes , but " there 's more to do " . He reflects : " I think we should stop and acknowledge the distance that we have travelled already . " There has been substantial improvement since we started but we are at a level where we ask what do we do next and I 'm clear that there are huge steps forward that we can be making . " Eric references Bryson 's recycling activity in North Wales as one to aspire to have here . " The emphasis is switching from recycling to reuse . The way we handle waste is a significant contributor to climate change but it 's easily fixed . Reusing materials rather than mining virgin materials is a carbon win . " In North Wales we work with the council and Welsh government to establish a reuse shop on the site that we work on . The store sells a range of stuff , and actually high quality stuff , that has otherwise been thrown into the recycling . " It 's an amazing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and bric-a-brac , and we are making ? 2,500 to ? 3,000 per week on that . " Money earned from the reuse shop is directly donated to the region 's local hospice which has partnered with the enterprise . " The role of a social enterprise is to look and think ' is there a problem here and if so , how do we turn it around to maximise the social and environmental potential ' ? " asks Eric . Among those responding to the latter question are companies like Lidl . It has announced plans to phase out black plastic packaging across its stores here . Black plastic , Eric explains , is hard to filter out during the separation process at recycling plants . That process relies on light technology to differentiate materials and black absorbs that light , rendering its function futile . The supermarket is also scrapping the sale of single-use plastic items . These include drinking straws , disposable plates , cups and cutlery , with plastic-stemmed cotton buds next on the list in the coming months . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . It 's leading the way for others who have yet to follow . But there 's still some way to go and Bryson Recycling has " a couple of things cooking " to speed up that process . " The simple reality is that waste impacts everyone and the environment . Our model ensures good environmental outcomes by ensuring that goods are recycled locally , livelihoods are supported and the economy continues to grow , " adds Eric . " The future of recycling must focus on the quality of material collected and their local economic value . The impact of our model stretches beyond Northern Ireland , with many areas across the UK adopting it . We are confident recycling will be taken to the next level and Bryson will continue to champion and shape the local circular economy model . " |

It involves an intransitive verb 'coming' with no NP object and the phrase 'out of advertising or media' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Eric Randall , director at Bryson Recycling , takes his work home with him . He says his 25 years at the recycling social enterprise has been more than just a job . It 's a vocation . " I cycled to work this morning and I have solar panels on my roof , " he says , reaffirming that commitment . A keen birdwatcher , Eric says he 's always been interested in nature and the environment . And if he was n't running the recycling enterprise here that posted a turnover of ? 13.5m last year , he 'd be the warden of a nature reserve . " The programmes that show chicks starving on the beach and eating small pieces of plastic instead of squid , that really connects with me . I 'm watching those birds and I think their quality of life is important to our enjoyment of life . Wildlife and nature is in my blood , " he says . Born in Durban , South Africa , Eric relocated to England with his family when he was eight years old . A string of moves around the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Brighton . Eric went on to study environmental science at university in Bradford . It was a course that set him up for one final move in 1993 to Northern Ireland where Bryson Recycling was being launched . And today he is at the helm of a team that has revolutionised the way Northern Ireland processes household waste . When Eric joined the enterprise on the Ormeau Road in Belfast 25 years ago , it was just about to embark on a campaign that would seek to change the mindset of consumers here . " I came in to set up Cash for Cans , a scheme that started out with three Government-funded trainees , " he says . " It saw vans parked in supermarkets where consumers would receive a penny for every can they recycled . It was a popular project and got a huge amount of backing . " But then it became apparent to us that we had to do something different to encourage recycling because aluminium was getting light and it was harder to get cash for it because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Mounting pressure to find alternative means to boost recycling and to meet incoming EU laws meant Northern Ireland had to act fast to shift its recycling psyche . And Bryson was the firm that helped local councils here achieve that . " There was a lot of activity happening elsewhere in the UK and EU directives were coming through and they were going to impact on us , so we were able to get a grant and carry out a feasibility study on how household recycling could be introduced . " The study took place in the year 2000 after which a trial began . It was a door-to-door collection service , a pilot kerbside pickup scheme that began servicing 8,000 households using electric vehicles . " We were really ahead of ourselves , " says Eric , referencing those alternatively-fuelled vehicles . " I apologise to all those drivers on the Ballygowan Road for the delays we caused . They were a bit like milk floats which are designed to off-load weight whereas we were picking up weight so we could n't have gone over 20mph @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for the trial but in no way did they impact on the success that service reaped . " As a result of those trials in 2004/05 , when councils realised they had to do something , we picked up contract after contract . We won all the early door-to-door services and now we run a plant that separates and processes that recycling , " Eric says . Those early initiatives have made Bryson Recycling the largest social enterprise recycler in the UK today , employing more than 280 staff . And the company now delivers its services across all of Northern Ireland , parts of Donegal and North Wales . It services 1.8m households and collects recyclables from more than 500 businesses and schools here . Over its lifetime it has recycled more than 675,000 tonnes of materials , not just aluminium . Bryson can cater for various types of household recycling materials , with the most recent trend seeing an increase in plastic reprocessing . Last year alone it processed more than 212m plastic items . Eric says that on a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ plastic , which is packed in 350kg cubes that are piled at the site in nouveau art-like bales . He paints a picture to describe the vastness of what NI is now recycling daily there : " It would fill one-and-a-half 40ft articulated lorries per day . " It 's a major step forward from the days when households had to receive payment to encourage recycling and that 's not only thanks to accessibility to services but campaigns and media that have highlighted the damage household waste is inflicting on the planet , Eric informs . These include the critically acclaimed Blue Planet television programme , narrated by Sir David Attenborough . " That show increased awareness about plastics and it encouraged people to recycle more and offered us the opportunity to boost our recycling rates . " There is only one other time that I can recall when something coming out of advertising or media had such a profound effect on the general psyche of recycling . " After Blue Planet aired we saw the amount of plastic we recycled jump up by 25% . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ items every day . And today I think now people inherently feel sympathetic towards environmental issues . " Among Bryson 's latest initiatives is its Kerbside Wheelie Box collection that allows for separation of a range of recyclable items , from paper and batteries to old hand tools and drinks cans . It 's currently available across five different council areas . Its mission today is also to champion a circular economy approach to recycling in Northern Ireland with more than 80% of materials collected going to local reprocessing companies , which sustains around 1,000 jobs locally . Huhtamaki , Cherry Pipes and Encirc all reprocess materials collected by Bryson . This collaborative approach with three reprocessors and a number of councils adds more than ? 100m every year to the NI economy and Bryson has ambitions to increase this by a further 50% in coming years . It 's revolutionary and , as Eric sits down with his recycling lorry-shaped 25th anniversary cake , we ask if he is happy with the outcome of a quarter century 's work . Have Northern Ireland households done @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? He says yes , but " there 's more to do " . He reflects : " I think we should stop and acknowledge the distance that we have travelled already . " There has been substantial improvement since we started but we are at a level where we ask what do we do next and I 'm clear that there are huge steps forward that we can be making . " Eric references Bryson 's recycling activity in North Wales as one to aspire to have here . " The emphasis is switching from recycling to reuse . The way we handle waste is a significant contributor to climate change but it 's easily fixed . Reusing materials rather than mining virgin materials is a carbon win . " In North Wales we work with the council and Welsh government to establish a reuse shop on the site that we work on . The store sells a range of stuff , and actually high quality stuff , that has otherwise been thrown into the recycling . " It 's an amazing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and bric-a-brac , and we are making ? 2,500 to ? 3,000 per week on that . " Money earned from the reuse shop is directly donated to the region 's local hospice which has partnered with the enterprise . " The role of a social enterprise is to look and think ' is there a problem here and if so , how do we turn it around to maximise the social and environmental potential ' ? " asks Eric . Among those responding to the latter question are companies like Lidl . It has announced plans to phase out black plastic packaging across its stores here . Black plastic , Eric explains , is hard to filter out during the separation process at recycling plants . That process relies on light technology to differentiate materials and black absorbs that light , rendering its function futile . The supermarket is also scrapping the sale of single-use plastic items . These include drinking straws , disposable plates , cups and cutlery , with plastic-stemmed cotton buds next on the list in the coming months . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . It 's leading the way for others who have yet to follow . But there 's still some way to go and Bryson Recycling has " a couple of things cooking " to speed up that process . " The simple reality is that waste impacts everyone and the environment . Our model ensures good environmental outcomes by ensuring that goods are recycled locally , livelihoods are supported and the economy continues to grow , " adds Eric . " The future of recycling must focus on the quality of material collected and their local economic value . The impact of our model stretches beyond Northern Ireland , with many areas across the UK adopting it . We are confident recycling will be taken to the next level and Bryson will continue to champion and shape the local circular economy model . " |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'new build buyers' is the NP object, 'cheated' is V1, and 'buying their freeholds' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, as the buyers are prevented from buying their freeholds due to being cheated. The verb 'cheated' fits into the category of means by deception or trickery. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A law firm is seeking compensation from conveyancers for 500 leaseholders who claim they were not advised properly about ground rents . The development comes as the government seeks to cap ground rents as part of wider efforts to end unfair leasehold practices . Birmingham and Manchester firm FS Legal , which advises clients in commercial business and private investment , has sent pre-action notification letters to dozens of conveyancing firms . Gareth Fatchett , a solicitor and partner at the firm , told the Gazette that clients may have been told , when they purchased their homes , that their ground rent will increase after a certain number of years , but the implications of the increase were not explained to them . Fatchett says there are significant risks for leaseholders when the ground rent exceeds ? 250 . These include losing the right to acquire the freehold or extend the lease , which would affect the property 's value : ' Firms will have a decision to make - whether they accept they have not provided advice to the standard they should have done @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ issue is " what damage have we caused ? " . ' FS Legal is acting for the 500 people on a conditional fee arrangement . A full protocol letter will be sent to firms before Christmas . Explaining why the firm , which does not do conveyancing work , has spearheaded the action , Fatchett said : ' We have done , historically , lots of work around pensions , failed investment schemes . We 're quite used to dealing with cases where people 's main assets are a significant chunk of their savings . With people 's homes - it 's not a financial attachment , it 's an emotional attachment ... People have bought something which , if they had known the risk , they would not have bought it or would have bought it at a signficantly different price . ' There are currently 1.4 milion leasehold houses in England . Leaseholders have to pay a rent to acknowledge that they are not the outright owner of the property . However , ground rents on many properties have risen from historically small sums @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are estimated at ? 371 per year for new-build homes and ? 327 for properties built before 2016 . Publishing a consultation paper yesterday on reforming leasehold practices , communities secretary James Brokenshire said unfair ground rents ' can turn a homeowner 's dream into a nightmare by hitting them in the back pocket , and making their property harder to sell ' . The Ministry of Housing , Communities & Local Government wants to cap ground rents at ? 10 a year . Its consultation paper states : ' We have heard of ground rents as high as ? 700 being charged for flats in some mainstream developments . Rent levels have risen significantly in the sector over the past 10 years or so , especially for new build flats . In most cases these modern leases permit reviews , with ground rent increases in line with inflation , but there are a number which contain onerous review provisions , such as those that permit the doubling of the rent every 10 years . The significant increase over the last decade reflects the modern practice of buying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The ministry acknowledges that leaseholders must pay a ground rent : ' However , it is unfair for them to be required to pay economic rents at levels which are solely designed to serve the commercial purposes of the developer and any future investors . Furthermore , leaseholders see no material benefits from these payments . ' Of course the risk of the investment/purchase rests with the client . But the solicitor must inform the client of all the salient points of the risk . Points of risk include , inter alia 1 . Ground rent and service charge , 2 . The amount and the frequency and the method of review . 3 . Whether the property is freehold or leasehold , in the case of a house . 4 . Length of the lease and if and how it can be extended . Last year , I explained the provisions for ground rent for a newly conv erted one-bed flat ( purchase price just under ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be doubled in 10 years and thereafter reviewed every 10 years by RPI . The purchase was aborted because such provisions were considered unacceptable . The selling agent claimed they were standard and had been so for the past 10 years . The re-developers appeared to want 2 bites at the cherry and soon they would sell the ground rent of the block possibly at 20+ times . As to the method of advice , I have always thought a " care letter " is insufficient , especially as it is " standardized " and contained lots of legal jargon and less important matters . Many clients do not read or understand or grasp it . I would strongly argue for a personal interview of client and joints clients by a qualified fee earner and allow some time for consideration . Further , material details must be clearly provided to the lender in the report on title , without leaving it to the surveyer or valuer . Conveyancing must be undertaken seriously . " Cheap " and sausage-machine legal work often turn out to be costly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Europe to still have this feudal tenure for residency . Scotland is more advanced than England . And NI has a much simpler house enfranchisement system . Flats in France and elsewhere are a kind of Commonhold , Condominiums . In Scotland if tenants can not agree they get a factor appointed for them I believe . This country is really steeped in medievalism as far as Land law and property is concerned , and does all go back to 1066 ! The were Lords , we were peasants and that attitude is still with us . Every single day on the National Leasehold Campaign Facebook page there is yet another victim of a freeholder scam , often involving managing agents or the fact that new build buyers have been cheated out of buying their freeholds after 2 years because the developer has sold it on . Perfectly legally . Or the shock at discovering how much the new freeholder wants . That means the law itself is a charter for exploitation . It has gone through 50 incarnations and this next one had better be the last . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a life commitment and your home might be repossessed and in fact the Property Ombudsman is clear nowadays ( finally ! ) about the kind of advice and quality that must be given to clients by solicitors . Leasehold has always been missold . You should not see " house for sale " but long term tenancy . Yes you are paying a kind of rent . Nobody is told that . Now I know all this , at the top of the advice list should be that simple fact : you are not buying a home but renting it . It is a declining asset . Beware of the 80 year cutoff point . A 99 year lease is pointless as really is an 18 year lease . When you renew it be prepared for the shock . Etc etc . NOW it is all obvious but it was n't . It should be obvious obvious to any conveyancing solicitor ! And they should have warned their clients . The problem with freehold flats is the inability to enforce positive covenants . In other jurisdictions there is no @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had been applied instead to finding a solution to this problem it could have been done , surely . Conveyancers assist their clients as to Title . Those with any sense limit their retainer to advice on this alone . " People have bought something which , if they had known the risk , they would not have bought it or would have bought it at a signficantly different price . ' " The " risk " of the investment rests with the client . I accept there are good freeholders out there , leasehold has been polluted by a few . When I was at the Select Committee meeting on Monday , there was a cry of anguish from all 50 leaseholders present to get rid of leasehold as it is and start again . The problems in our block are mild , some people at the meeting had lost life changing sums of money , or were trapped in their homes because they could not extend a lease or sell their home . Dry , legal arguments do nothing for these people , they need meaningful @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ law was perfect from tomorrow , it will take years for many people to feel confident about buying a leasehold property . The banks destroyed trust in themselves 10 years ago , leasehold is in the same situation now , there is a big repair job to do which will take a while . Simon D. What you suggest in your first paragraph is what already happens in many leasehold flat developments . There is no separate management company . The landlord covenants to carry out the management and when the development is complete he transfers the freehold to a company owned by the tenants , who are obliged to transfer their share in the company to their buyer when they sell their flat . The company then organises the management , either themselves , or by employing a professional manager . Works well , but the developer does not get the extra profit which they have recently been getting by selling on the freehold to third party investors for a good return . There is little inherently wrong with the leasehold system . Many mansion blocks work @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tenants , or management is done by a tenant owned manco , and the reversion has imited ability to increase rent . The issue has only become toxic because recently developers saw an opportunity to make a further profit by making the reversion attractive to investors , and by extending the leasehold concept , totally unnecessarily , to estate houses . The problems can be resolved , as is shown by those developers who are engaging and putting right their leasehold developments . Legislation is also required for certain of the issues . I had to grimace at some of the people and organisations the Law Commission considers to be stakeholders when it comes to leasehold reform . It is like they are reforming laws on organised crime and listing the Mafia as a stakeholder Further to previous , I have some retired friends who live in a block of 17 flats . They are enfranchised , 900 years plus leases , do the managing themselves . Each flat has a share in their RTM company , pay about ? 5 per year nominal ground rent to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . They are getting on a bit , and chasing recalcitrant owners for service charges is difficult . I said they could employ an agent to do everything although then the service charge would go up a bit to cover the agent 's costs . Our situation is more difficult , we are more than 30 flats , the freeholder and managing agent are the same . Rapidly rising service charges in recent years and poor work . Looked at RTM and enfranchisement . RTM on its own does not give us enough freedom from the freeholder , enfranchisement too expensive at the moment so ca n't get enough votes for it . Both the RTM process , and enfranchisement process put people off because off expense , and it looks complicated to the ordinary person . It feels like we could spend a lot of money , especially with enfranchisement , and not get the result we want . At the moment , the leaseholders who want to enfranchise have to buy all of the freehold , not their majority share . I know this aspect is under review @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ those leaseholders who bother to vote be able to do RTM , or enfranchisement , rather than a majority of the whole building . And an individual leaseholder be able to buy their share of the freehold at any time , or do a reasonable cost lease extension . Leasehold is seen as a toxic brand because of recent abuses . We are outside of London , and the value of our flats has fallen substantially in the last few years . I regret buying leasehold , like many others . Reply to Andrew Finkel - Going forward , I do n't think there would have to be a remote freeholder to enforce communal obligations , it is a hangover issue with English law . A residents association or more likely their company could be given the same powers as the remote freeholder , where each flat owner on purchase of their flat is obliged to pay towards communal costs . This obligation would pass to any new owner . Each flat owner has a share in the company , which would also pass to a new owner . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of organising things , then the only thing their company would have to do is appoint a competent managing agent , who would ensure the building is maintained properly and bill the residents for service charges . It would be easy to appoint a new managing agent if necessary . New flats would have to be sold where the flat owners have their own company from the outset , the developer could offer a list of managing agents to be used , including themselves , or the owners manage things themselves . Everywhere else manages quite well without leasehold , apart from England and Wales , we should look at best practice elsewhere , rather than just say it is too difficult and complicated to get rid of leasehold . To be honest , I have no great objection to fair long leases , very small ground rents which can not increase , and low cost , easy lease extensions . What I do object to is using leasehold tenure as a money making racket , through excessive cost for lease extensions , enfranchisement , or rapidly rising ground rents @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more complexity to the current rotting structure , and allow some to continue to make a good living by abusing leaseholders . One third of the residents in our building take no interest in it , this is not unusual , and I think part of the legal review needs to look at ways to motivate people , and make it easier for people to control their own destiny . The complexity of the current system puts people off getting involved , and enables abuses to happen . Re Simon D 's comments yesterday , I would make the following replies : 1 . The government brought in Commonhold . Nobody uses it because it is perceived as unworkable. 2 . The reason leasehold survives is because of a legal rule that recognises the complexity involved in Person A being able to compel Person B , a property owner in the same building , to do something ( as opposed to simply doing nothing ) relating to that building , and if A sells to C , and B sells to D , there is a risk that C @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ necessary obligations without the existence of the leasehold structure . Enforcement of obligations against future owners is hard enough even when there are Restrictions on the relevant land registry title , and these often involve red tape and legal expense ( such as deeds of covenant , transfer of shares in a company etc ) . 3 . Possibly the answer is an amendment to the Land Registry Act 1925 stating that when a person becomes the registered proprietor of a title to land , they are retrospectively 9back to the date of their acquisition ) liable to all other property owners for compliance with the covenants in their lease . I would retain the concept of the 999 year lease . 4 . There is still sometimes a logic in retaining ground rent . If some 9but not all ) of the lessees in a building form a limited company to acquire the freehold , the service charge provisions probably do not entitle them to use the service charge fund to pay the company 's administrative costs , such as auditing fees and filing at Companies House . the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the ground rent income is a logical source . Anon at 14:06 on 17th October , apologies for pontificating , but I have 35 years in residential conveyancing and have seen first hand the practices I referred to . You correctly say that such people should be sued for negligence . You are somewhat naive in thinking that such practices did not happen . I am not sure what relevance Hampton Court has to the first time buyers who bought these small starter homes with such unreasonable rents . The developers have made money selling the houses , and then made a further profit selling the freehold reversion to unscrupulous ground rent purchasers . There are many buyers who have now found themselves unable to sell their properties . They have suffered loss and should be compensated . Please tell me if you would have bought such a home : if not , why not ? I do n't do property law , but personally have tried to avoid leasehold title altogether as it is always bgoing to be more complicated and you tend to have to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will have told clients in their report on title and emphasised it if there were any very expensive provisions in there . As said below anyone receiving one of these letters should notify their insurers and obviously check what the client was told . Some clients will have been told and are still suing because they like the magic money tree which has also been produced for those who did not realise ( although it was plain to everyone else and they were told by their solicitors ) that an interest only mortgage meant interest only . I am not a lawyer , I bought a leasehold flat 3 years ago . I know very much more about leasehold now . Leasehold law is an antique , rotting edifice which has enabled a select few to enrich themselves at the expense of leaseholders . Some of the legal profession have made a handsome living out of leasehold , with the balance now firmly in favour of the freeholder over the leaseholder . Leasehold law as it is now needs to be abolished entirely , and we start again from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ commonhold approach for flats , and only freehold without conditions for houses . A flat leaseholder should be able to buy their individual share of the freehold of the building at any time , or do a lease extension , either of these options for a fair price , which is easily worked out without the need to employ surveyors and solicitors at great expense . All new build houses to be sold freehold , new flats and buildings converted to flats to be sold commonhold . Hopefully then leasehold can die off over time . Some parts of the legal profession need to get their snouts out of the leasehold trough , and all decent , fair minded people campaign for a commonhold type law that is fit for the 21st century , not the 18th . England and Wales are almost unique with leasehold , we need to leave it behind , and join the rest of the civilised world . The Law Commission review , welcome as it is , is polishing a giant t*** , the result will still be a good living for leasehold practitioners @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ something that is straightforward and fair for all . ' sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander ' springs to mind over the unexpected removal of previous published critical comments against Mr Fatchett attack on some fellow law firms yet he was more than willing to have his attacks publicised to every solicitor and others who receive the Gazette . Anon 16/10 , 22:45 . What a cynical view of how new build conveyancing works , with ' recommended solicitors ' receiving a kick back , acting in cahoots with the ' site office ' and whose sole advice is ' read the lease ' . Any solicitor who does that deserves to be sued for negligence or worse . I work in this sector and do not recognise the picture you paint . Please do not pontificate on things of which you obviously have no knowledge . As regards compound interest , do n't forget that most of the leases in question are 999 year leases and so any long term valuation is meaningless . Hampton Court was built almost 500 years ago at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ greatest royal palace in Europe at the time . If only somebody would offer it me me now for ? 50,000 , I would bite their hands off . An ad hominem attack on FS Law does not remove the fact that the original CML Handbook dated July 1999 says at 5.10.5 : " we have no objection to a lease which contains a provision for a periodic increase of the ground rent provided that the amount of the increased ground rent is fixed or can be readily established and is reasonable . If you consider any increase in the ground rent may materially affect the value of the property , you must report this to us ( see part 2 ) " Some silly comments as usual , but also level headed ones by : Stephen Desmond , James Godden , Andrew Finkel , David Cairns , Marshall Hall , Robert Hailstone . Clearly all conveyancers know of the issues , and will be taking steps to make sure current practice accommodates the issues , whether they are legally correct or not . However , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ quite frankly , each case should be considered on its own merits . Both asking where did a conveyance fail to advise where a prudent one would , and what is the actual loss suffered . I agree , that with the spotlight on leaseholds , landlords should be all too accommodating to amend leases to bring them the right side of controversy . I know one landlord sending letters out offering variations for free . Purchaser 's lawyers immediately have the protection of what the reasonable and prudent conveyancer would have done at the time . And also , the absence of any warnings in the numerous changes to the CML handbooks over the years too . I have yet to check the various editions of the Law Society Conveyancing Handbook , but I suspect there is little in there too . One element - the ? 250/ ? 1000 threshold for an AS - is surely the result of ' CPD course hysteria ' but I have to ask , which court in the land would apply that to a long lease , and cause @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their CML Part 2 , and many just require the ' starting rent ' to have been those amounts . I have seen one lender say ' of course we have no issue ' . However , expect big improvements to the whole area if the Government is serious about tackling leaseholds - managing agent fees will surely be targeted , solicitors acting for landlord too , as will ground rent amounts . Not a good time to be a landlord or solicitor/managing agent associated with a landlord . R equals P times I over 1 minus one plus I to the power of minus T Where where --P is the premium payable as a condition of the grant of the tenancy ( and includes a payment of money 's worth ) or , where no premium is so payable , zero , I is 0.06 , and T is the term , expressed in years , granted by the tenancy ( disregarding any right to terminate the tenancy before the end of the term or to extend the tenancy ) ; and This is what the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ PC for OK ? ( Or just pass it to your LCD / small child - ( s ) he wil know some maths ) Any conveyancer receiving a letter from Fatchett 's firm should not respond but should immediately notify their insurers . After consulting the insurers , consider whether it might be possible to agree a deed of variation with the landlord to remove the offending rent review provisions in the lease I am unaware of anyone who has considered a class action against any developers who either knowingly misled the purchaser or included onerous ground rent provisions that are arguably non-binding unfair contract terms ? The Ministry of Housing , Communities & Local Government states that " ... there are a number of leases which contain onerous review provisions , such as those that permit the doubling of the ground rent every 10 years . " Anon at 22.45 refers to this practice still enduring too . When I was a lad , this type of provision was known as a ' Blue Dolphin ' clause after a then notorious @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ example of a mixture of perfidy and incompetence on the part of the lawyers involved . It is surprising , to say the least , to see that such provisions are drafted in leases now . Any solicitor failing to advise a buyer or mortgagee ( in trenchant terms ) on the complete unacceptability of such a provision is surely very likely to be negligent ? It used to be the case that ground rents were most commonly of a fixed sum , and it was really only in the 1960s , as inflation took hold , that means were sought to allow the real value of the ground rent to increase so inflation did not destroy their value . Some may recall that in the mid 1930s ( for example ) a ground rent might be ? 10 or ? 20 yearly , when a youngish solicitor 's income would likely be around ? 500p.a . It does not seem to me wrong in principle to cap ground rents by law . I would not advocate abolition , because in some leasehold schemes ( such as where @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ leaseholders ) the ground rent income provides some cushion where lessees are late paying service charge , or there is a dispute over service charges . However there is surely no principled reason why they should n't be limited to say ? 250 , with provision for increase linked to some recognised index , perhaps with a capping provision limiting any increase in the event the index goes bananas ? I have to say that I am somewhat disappointed at many of the comments on this article . It is clear that over the years many solicitors have been in cahoots with the site office of these developers and have been getting some form of kickback or other benefit . They will have written their standard report for the first property and then rolled it out for the rest of the clients recommended to them . They would not have been particularly keen to highlight an issue which may have put off the client . I do n't think it is enough to say to the client that the rent increases and the basis of the review is in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is paid surely to give advice , not just regurgitate the provisions in different language . Would you have bought a lease with such a rent review provision ? If not then in my view that leaves you open to a claim if you let your client buy . I recently came across a 999 year lease with a rent of ? 250 doubling every 10 years . The client was surprised when I said he could n't buy it , but changed his mind when he did the calculation . After 100 years the rent was ? 34,000.00 and within about 250 years he would have paid off the national debt . However the seller had bought it and is now left with a worthless asset . There is your loss ! There are National house builders out there who have come to a deal to compensate the investor who bought their reversion at 10/15 times the rental , and are now paying the legal costs for leases to be amended to RPI . Why would they do that if they did n't realise there is a big issue @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do something about it . FS is to be commended . In all conscience leasehold purchasers are plainly vulnerable and are entitled to strong and clear advice on ground rents . The government should not cap these pernicious immoral imposts : they should abolish them all . They have no place in modern society . So , now all the conveyancing solicitors who took to these pages to stick the boot in on PI lawyers for their success fees ( when they had no idea of how PI funding works nor the concept of the client 's contribution to costs ) face their own tsunami from the ' we want compensation for losses we did not know we had and do not care about ' brigade . Try arguing ' I only charged you tuppence ha'penny and did you a free will ' and see how far you get . I fail to see how Mr Fatchett 's past conduct impacts on his ability to help people take a pragmatic approach to this issue . Show me who else is trying to help people in this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Bill now for over a year with no real progress . I look forward to seeing this implemented in five years time when it is too late . In my opinion , if conveyancers/solicitors have done a good job they have no reason to worry . Why should they not be held accountable for financial loss flowing from negligent advice ? After all , does n't a solicitor have a duty to call his client 's attention to clauses in an unusual form which may affect the interests of his client ? The profession should refuse to act on the purchase of any new leasehold houses ( except shared ownership ) . That would get the government to finally act to ban them and do something about the existing ones . Leaseholders can still purchase the freehold reversion on houses ( Leasehold Reform Act 1967 ) or lease extensions on flats ( Leasehold Reform , Housing & Urban Development Act 1993 ) . Whilst different qualifying criteria will apply and each case is fact dependent , it is wrong of FS Legal to suggest rights are lost absolutely @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ accredited Solicitor/Surveyor on such topics . Lydia ... I was confused by that . I think the argument being made is that the higher the ground rent , the more expensive it will be to extend the lease -- especially when marriage value becomes payable . Personally I always tell clients about the 80 year marriage value point then advise that they speak to a specialist surveyor to make sure that : a ) the property is worth what they are paying for it taking into account the term remaining ; b ) the client is able to obtain advice from a surveyor re likely extension costs once the term falls below 80 years . So the Solicitor who has brought action against firms for ( to paraphrase ) not making house buyers aware of the implications of their ground rent has recently himself been the subject of an SRA/SDT decision for misconduct .... pot , kettle , black ? ? ? ? ? It is now time that the government steps in and puts a Cap on Ground Rent in the United Kingdom . The legal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Agree with Mr. Moore @13:22 ! ! David Cairns - the standard will be that of a reasonably competent solicitor acting in this field 10 years ago . So , if a responsible body of such solicitors would not have advised then they are ok provided their decision not to so advise bears logical scrutiny . This throws up some problems of course as it may be very difficult to find someone who can give an expert opinion on what was the duty of care 10 years ago . I 'm guessing a couple of such solicitor experts will give the opinions in the vast majority of cases . If a failure to advise was a breach of duty then away we go . If not , then everyone can breathe a sigh of relief ( though I bet if your PII goes up because of this it wo n't come down ) . My firm has received a letter . It 's very simple how they get their work - we have been advised by clients they simply drop leaflets on new estates @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ allegations . One client said he had not heard from them for such a long time that they thought it was not proceeding . Clearly , they feel they are now in a position to have a punt . We shall see how this unfolds . Is there not a simple solution in s1(7) Leasehold Reform Act ' 67 ? " The Secretary of State may by order replace the amount referred to in subsection ( 1 ) ( a ) ( ii ) above and the number in the definition of " I " in that subsection by such amount or number as is specified in the order ; and such an order shall be made by statutory instrument which shall be subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament . " Is it to be FS Legal 's case that solicitors should have advised on the formula in s1 ( 1 ) ( a ) ( ii ) of the ' 67 Act , and that clients would have understood it if they had ? Never met a lawyer yet who can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or whatever ) . " Oh it wo n't be my concern - I 'll only be there a few years " , or " I 'll be dead by the time that happens " ... and all the other such phrases clients come up with when we try to explain the concepts of a lease as a diminishing asset . Still the Common Law may yet provide the proving ground for arguments in relation to these issues more quickly than a Law Commission Report and more sticking-plaster legislation . I wonder how many experienced conveyancers reading this article routinely advised their clients up to about 2 years ago NOT to buy flats because of the Assured Tenancy point ; I would hazard a guess that they were a minority . I have two suggestions to alleviate this issue : 1 . Legislation to increase the rent levels at which the premises become an Assured Tenancy , and ( a ) for these limits to increase annually by RPI and ( b ) be subject to review by statutory instrument every 5 years . - the current levels @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ since then make it logical to review those limits ; 2 . Legislation to state that in any residential lease for 21 years or more granted in future , the rent is deemed to be capped at the level at which the lease would become an Assured Tenancy By what standard is a solicitor to be judged who say advised on a Lease ten years ago and where say the risk of an inflation ( rpi ) based rent rising to above ? 250 pa may or may not materialise depending upon how long the client retains ownership and levels of inflation Was it negligent not to advise on the ? 250 pa rent trap ten years ago . I believe some lenders are still comfortable to lend despite being cogniscant of the legal arguments and even without a mortgagee protection clause I take a contrary view . Ultimately if there was negligence and damage suffered then a claim can be made . I deal with professional negligence and although I do not particularly like saying to other solicitors that they have done wrong , I have to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ checkmylegalfees can be drawn . There will be many clients who have been shafted by bad advice for 100% or too high success fees or by standard 25% deductions regardless of the actual success fee . They should be able to claim their fees back . Yes it all looks a bit grubby but without bin men taking the rubbish away everything will get very dirty and smelly until ultimately a nuclear option is engaged . ps I used to be a bin man . It was great - outdoors , early finish and no regulation . If I went back to it I 'd probably earn more than I do as a 20 year solicitor . I had the Gov.uk website open most of yesterday and was periodically refreshing the page to see when eagerly awaited Consultation would be issued . I 've just finished reading it and it does n't quite do everything that it was hyped up to ... Considering that the third paragraph of the Ministerial Foreward has a glaringly obvious mistake in saying that " some people have been trapped by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " when surely they must mean Leases I 've got to confess that my hopes at what the Consultation would set out were diminished . Apart from an off hand type reference to other types of ownership commonhold is n't mentioned , the closing of the loophole relating to Ground 8 , Schedule 2 of the Housing Act 1988 is n't mentioned and apart from saying that the ban of Leasehold Houses would catch subsequent sales there is n't much mention of what 's going to be done about those who have bought houses on a Leasehold basis - admittedly there may be some overlap with this and Law Commission 's current work but surely any reforms must redress the issues that current Leasehold house owners are facing ... As to this article it would be interesting to know how F S Legal have acquired their Clients and how the list of 500 firms that are being targeted has been compiled . As with any action of this type the number of people putting claims in will most likely rise ... And as someone has already commented what is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ explained properly .... what 's being done to account for people who just did n't read the Legal Report or those who may only recently be putting themselves in the category of someone who was n't informed properly .... me , cynical ? Never ! Having made the move nearly 3 years ago across to acting for Developers from normal residential conveyancing I 'm not waiting with bated breath for one of these letters to arrive the post .... I am however waiting to see what happens with this action and what implications it has .... I know of one development in Manchester where the Landlord is changing the rent review provisions for free and paying the tenants legal costs yet this firm is still soliciting clients to pursue their solicitors ! ' Firms will have a decision to make - whether they accept they have not provided advice to the standard they should have done . If they accept that they have not , the issue is " what damage have we caused ? " . ' Would FS legal like to give some indication @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of been provided , when and how ? I presume that the reference to the ? 250 ground rent refers to whether or not a long leasehold interest in a property at a premium with a ground rent of more than ? 250 ( outside London ) or more than ? 1,000 ( inside London ) now or in the future ( " the Lease " ) would be an assured tenancy under s.1 of the Housing Act 1988 ?

×
The sentence contains the structure 'cheated out of buying', which fits the transitive out of -ing construction pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It also has a prevention interpretation, where the new build buyers are prevented from buying their freeholds due to being cheated. The verb 'cheated' falls under the category of means to achieve a goal by deception or trickery, and the NP object 'new build buyers' functions as a causee. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A law firm is seeking compensation from conveyancers for 500 leaseholders who claim they were not advised properly about ground rents . The development comes as the government seeks to cap ground rents as part of wider efforts to end unfair leasehold practices . Birmingham and Manchester firm FS Legal , which advises clients in commercial business and private investment , has sent pre-action notification letters to dozens of conveyancing firms . Gareth Fatchett , a solicitor and partner at the firm , told the Gazette that clients may have been told , when they purchased their homes , that their ground rent will increase after a certain number of years , but the implications of the increase were not explained to them . Fatchett says there are significant risks for leaseholders when the ground rent exceeds ? 250 . These include losing the right to acquire the freehold or extend the lease , which would affect the property 's value : ' Firms will have a decision to make - whether they accept they have not provided advice to the standard they should have done @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ issue is " what damage have we caused ? " . ' FS Legal is acting for the 500 people on a conditional fee arrangement . A full protocol letter will be sent to firms before Christmas . Explaining why the firm , which does not do conveyancing work , has spearheaded the action , Fatchett said : ' We have done , historically , lots of work around pensions , failed investment schemes . We 're quite used to dealing with cases where people 's main assets are a significant chunk of their savings . With people 's homes - it 's not a financial attachment , it 's an emotional attachment ... People have bought something which , if they had known the risk , they would not have bought it or would have bought it at a signficantly different price . ' There are currently 1.4 milion leasehold houses in England . Leaseholders have to pay a rent to acknowledge that they are not the outright owner of the property . However , ground rents on many properties have risen from historically small sums @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are estimated at ? 371 per year for new-build homes and ? 327 for properties built before 2016 . Publishing a consultation paper yesterday on reforming leasehold practices , communities secretary James Brokenshire said unfair ground rents ' can turn a homeowner 's dream into a nightmare by hitting them in the back pocket , and making their property harder to sell ' . The Ministry of Housing , Communities & Local Government wants to cap ground rents at ? 10 a year . Its consultation paper states : ' We have heard of ground rents as high as ? 700 being charged for flats in some mainstream developments . Rent levels have risen significantly in the sector over the past 10 years or so , especially for new build flats . In most cases these modern leases permit reviews , with ground rent increases in line with inflation , but there are a number which contain onerous review provisions , such as those that permit the doubling of the rent every 10 years . The significant increase over the last decade reflects the modern practice of buying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The ministry acknowledges that leaseholders must pay a ground rent : ' However , it is unfair for them to be required to pay economic rents at levels which are solely designed to serve the commercial purposes of the developer and any future investors . Furthermore , leaseholders see no material benefits from these payments . ' Of course the risk of the investment/purchase rests with the client . But the solicitor must inform the client of all the salient points of the risk . Points of risk include , inter alia 1 . Ground rent and service charge , 2 . The amount and the frequency and the method of review . 3 . Whether the property is freehold or leasehold , in the case of a house . 4 . Length of the lease and if and how it can be extended . Last year , I explained the provisions for ground rent for a newly conv erted one-bed flat ( purchase price just under ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be doubled in 10 years and thereafter reviewed every 10 years by RPI . The purchase was aborted because such provisions were considered unacceptable . The selling agent claimed they were standard and had been so for the past 10 years . The re-developers appeared to want 2 bites at the cherry and soon they would sell the ground rent of the block possibly at 20+ times . As to the method of advice , I have always thought a " care letter " is insufficient , especially as it is " standardized " and contained lots of legal jargon and less important matters . Many clients do not read or understand or grasp it . I would strongly argue for a personal interview of client and joints clients by a qualified fee earner and allow some time for consideration . Further , material details must be clearly provided to the lender in the report on title , without leaving it to the surveyer or valuer . Conveyancing must be undertaken seriously . " Cheap " and sausage-machine legal work often turn out to be costly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Europe to still have this feudal tenure for residency . Scotland is more advanced than England . And NI has a much simpler house enfranchisement system . Flats in France and elsewhere are a kind of Commonhold , Condominiums . In Scotland if tenants can not agree they get a factor appointed for them I believe . This country is really steeped in medievalism as far as Land law and property is concerned , and does all go back to 1066 ! The were Lords , we were peasants and that attitude is still with us . Every single day on the National Leasehold Campaign Facebook page there is yet another victim of a freeholder scam , often involving managing agents or the fact that new build buyers have been cheated out of buying their freeholds after 2 years because the developer has sold it on . Perfectly legally . Or the shock at discovering how much the new freeholder wants . That means the law itself is a charter for exploitation . It has gone through 50 incarnations and this next one had better be the last . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a life commitment and your home might be repossessed and in fact the Property Ombudsman is clear nowadays ( finally ! ) about the kind of advice and quality that must be given to clients by solicitors . Leasehold has always been missold . You should not see " house for sale " but long term tenancy . Yes you are paying a kind of rent . Nobody is told that . Now I know all this , at the top of the advice list should be that simple fact : you are not buying a home but renting it . It is a declining asset . Beware of the 80 year cutoff point . A 99 year lease is pointless as really is an 18 year lease . When you renew it be prepared for the shock . Etc etc . NOW it is all obvious but it was n't . It should be obvious obvious to any conveyancing solicitor ! And they should have warned their clients . The problem with freehold flats is the inability to enforce positive covenants . In other jurisdictions there is no @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had been applied instead to finding a solution to this problem it could have been done , surely . Conveyancers assist their clients as to Title . Those with any sense limit their retainer to advice on this alone . " People have bought something which , if they had known the risk , they would not have bought it or would have bought it at a signficantly different price . ' " The " risk " of the investment rests with the client . I accept there are good freeholders out there , leasehold has been polluted by a few . When I was at the Select Committee meeting on Monday , there was a cry of anguish from all 50 leaseholders present to get rid of leasehold as it is and start again . The problems in our block are mild , some people at the meeting had lost life changing sums of money , or were trapped in their homes because they could not extend a lease or sell their home . Dry , legal arguments do nothing for these people , they need meaningful @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ law was perfect from tomorrow , it will take years for many people to feel confident about buying a leasehold property . The banks destroyed trust in themselves 10 years ago , leasehold is in the same situation now , there is a big repair job to do which will take a while . Simon D. What you suggest in your first paragraph is what already happens in many leasehold flat developments . There is no separate management company . The landlord covenants to carry out the management and when the development is complete he transfers the freehold to a company owned by the tenants , who are obliged to transfer their share in the company to their buyer when they sell their flat . The company then organises the management , either themselves , or by employing a professional manager . Works well , but the developer does not get the extra profit which they have recently been getting by selling on the freehold to third party investors for a good return . There is little inherently wrong with the leasehold system . Many mansion blocks work @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tenants , or management is done by a tenant owned manco , and the reversion has imited ability to increase rent . The issue has only become toxic because recently developers saw an opportunity to make a further profit by making the reversion attractive to investors , and by extending the leasehold concept , totally unnecessarily , to estate houses . The problems can be resolved , as is shown by those developers who are engaging and putting right their leasehold developments . Legislation is also required for certain of the issues . I had to grimace at some of the people and organisations the Law Commission considers to be stakeholders when it comes to leasehold reform . It is like they are reforming laws on organised crime and listing the Mafia as a stakeholder Further to previous , I have some retired friends who live in a block of 17 flats . They are enfranchised , 900 years plus leases , do the managing themselves . Each flat has a share in their RTM company , pay about ? 5 per year nominal ground rent to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . They are getting on a bit , and chasing recalcitrant owners for service charges is difficult . I said they could employ an agent to do everything although then the service charge would go up a bit to cover the agent 's costs . Our situation is more difficult , we are more than 30 flats , the freeholder and managing agent are the same . Rapidly rising service charges in recent years and poor work . Looked at RTM and enfranchisement . RTM on its own does not give us enough freedom from the freeholder , enfranchisement too expensive at the moment so ca n't get enough votes for it . Both the RTM process , and enfranchisement process put people off because off expense , and it looks complicated to the ordinary person . It feels like we could spend a lot of money , especially with enfranchisement , and not get the result we want . At the moment , the leaseholders who want to enfranchise have to buy all of the freehold , not their majority share . I know this aspect is under review @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ those leaseholders who bother to vote be able to do RTM , or enfranchisement , rather than a majority of the whole building . And an individual leaseholder be able to buy their share of the freehold at any time , or do a reasonable cost lease extension . Leasehold is seen as a toxic brand because of recent abuses . We are outside of London , and the value of our flats has fallen substantially in the last few years . I regret buying leasehold , like many others . Reply to Andrew Finkel - Going forward , I do n't think there would have to be a remote freeholder to enforce communal obligations , it is a hangover issue with English law . A residents association or more likely their company could be given the same powers as the remote freeholder , where each flat owner on purchase of their flat is obliged to pay towards communal costs . This obligation would pass to any new owner . Each flat owner has a share in the company , which would also pass to a new owner . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of organising things , then the only thing their company would have to do is appoint a competent managing agent , who would ensure the building is maintained properly and bill the residents for service charges . It would be easy to appoint a new managing agent if necessary . New flats would have to be sold where the flat owners have their own company from the outset , the developer could offer a list of managing agents to be used , including themselves , or the owners manage things themselves . Everywhere else manages quite well without leasehold , apart from England and Wales , we should look at best practice elsewhere , rather than just say it is too difficult and complicated to get rid of leasehold . To be honest , I have no great objection to fair long leases , very small ground rents which can not increase , and low cost , easy lease extensions . What I do object to is using leasehold tenure as a money making racket , through excessive cost for lease extensions , enfranchisement , or rapidly rising ground rents @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more complexity to the current rotting structure , and allow some to continue to make a good living by abusing leaseholders . One third of the residents in our building take no interest in it , this is not unusual , and I think part of the legal review needs to look at ways to motivate people , and make it easier for people to control their own destiny . The complexity of the current system puts people off getting involved , and enables abuses to happen . Re Simon D 's comments yesterday , I would make the following replies : 1 . The government brought in Commonhold . Nobody uses it because it is perceived as unworkable. 2 . The reason leasehold survives is because of a legal rule that recognises the complexity involved in Person A being able to compel Person B , a property owner in the same building , to do something ( as opposed to simply doing nothing ) relating to that building , and if A sells to C , and B sells to D , there is a risk that C @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ necessary obligations without the existence of the leasehold structure . Enforcement of obligations against future owners is hard enough even when there are Restrictions on the relevant land registry title , and these often involve red tape and legal expense ( such as deeds of covenant , transfer of shares in a company etc ) . 3 . Possibly the answer is an amendment to the Land Registry Act 1925 stating that when a person becomes the registered proprietor of a title to land , they are retrospectively 9back to the date of their acquisition ) liable to all other property owners for compliance with the covenants in their lease . I would retain the concept of the 999 year lease . 4 . There is still sometimes a logic in retaining ground rent . If some 9but not all ) of the lessees in a building form a limited company to acquire the freehold , the service charge provisions probably do not entitle them to use the service charge fund to pay the company 's administrative costs , such as auditing fees and filing at Companies House . the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the ground rent income is a logical source . Anon at 14:06 on 17th October , apologies for pontificating , but I have 35 years in residential conveyancing and have seen first hand the practices I referred to . You correctly say that such people should be sued for negligence . You are somewhat naive in thinking that such practices did not happen . I am not sure what relevance Hampton Court has to the first time buyers who bought these small starter homes with such unreasonable rents . The developers have made money selling the houses , and then made a further profit selling the freehold reversion to unscrupulous ground rent purchasers . There are many buyers who have now found themselves unable to sell their properties . They have suffered loss and should be compensated . Please tell me if you would have bought such a home : if not , why not ? I do n't do property law , but personally have tried to avoid leasehold title altogether as it is always bgoing to be more complicated and you tend to have to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will have told clients in their report on title and emphasised it if there were any very expensive provisions in there . As said below anyone receiving one of these letters should notify their insurers and obviously check what the client was told . Some clients will have been told and are still suing because they like the magic money tree which has also been produced for those who did not realise ( although it was plain to everyone else and they were told by their solicitors ) that an interest only mortgage meant interest only . I am not a lawyer , I bought a leasehold flat 3 years ago . I know very much more about leasehold now . Leasehold law is an antique , rotting edifice which has enabled a select few to enrich themselves at the expense of leaseholders . Some of the legal profession have made a handsome living out of leasehold , with the balance now firmly in favour of the freeholder over the leaseholder . Leasehold law as it is now needs to be abolished entirely , and we start again from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ commonhold approach for flats , and only freehold without conditions for houses . A flat leaseholder should be able to buy their individual share of the freehold of the building at any time , or do a lease extension , either of these options for a fair price , which is easily worked out without the need to employ surveyors and solicitors at great expense . All new build houses to be sold freehold , new flats and buildings converted to flats to be sold commonhold . Hopefully then leasehold can die off over time . Some parts of the legal profession need to get their snouts out of the leasehold trough , and all decent , fair minded people campaign for a commonhold type law that is fit for the 21st century , not the 18th . England and Wales are almost unique with leasehold , we need to leave it behind , and join the rest of the civilised world . The Law Commission review , welcome as it is , is polishing a giant t*** , the result will still be a good living for leasehold practitioners @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ something that is straightforward and fair for all . ' sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander ' springs to mind over the unexpected removal of previous published critical comments against Mr Fatchett attack on some fellow law firms yet he was more than willing to have his attacks publicised to every solicitor and others who receive the Gazette . Anon 16/10 , 22:45 . What a cynical view of how new build conveyancing works , with ' recommended solicitors ' receiving a kick back , acting in cahoots with the ' site office ' and whose sole advice is ' read the lease ' . Any solicitor who does that deserves to be sued for negligence or worse . I work in this sector and do not recognise the picture you paint . Please do not pontificate on things of which you obviously have no knowledge . As regards compound interest , do n't forget that most of the leases in question are 999 year leases and so any long term valuation is meaningless . Hampton Court was built almost 500 years ago at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ greatest royal palace in Europe at the time . If only somebody would offer it me me now for ? 50,000 , I would bite their hands off . An ad hominem attack on FS Law does not remove the fact that the original CML Handbook dated July 1999 says at 5.10.5 : " we have no objection to a lease which contains a provision for a periodic increase of the ground rent provided that the amount of the increased ground rent is fixed or can be readily established and is reasonable . If you consider any increase in the ground rent may materially affect the value of the property , you must report this to us ( see part 2 ) " Some silly comments as usual , but also level headed ones by : Stephen Desmond , James Godden , Andrew Finkel , David Cairns , Marshall Hall , Robert Hailstone . Clearly all conveyancers know of the issues , and will be taking steps to make sure current practice accommodates the issues , whether they are legally correct or not . However , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ quite frankly , each case should be considered on its own merits . Both asking where did a conveyance fail to advise where a prudent one would , and what is the actual loss suffered . I agree , that with the spotlight on leaseholds , landlords should be all too accommodating to amend leases to bring them the right side of controversy . I know one landlord sending letters out offering variations for free . Purchaser 's lawyers immediately have the protection of what the reasonable and prudent conveyancer would have done at the time . And also , the absence of any warnings in the numerous changes to the CML handbooks over the years too . I have yet to check the various editions of the Law Society Conveyancing Handbook , but I suspect there is little in there too . One element - the ? 250/ ? 1000 threshold for an AS - is surely the result of ' CPD course hysteria ' but I have to ask , which court in the land would apply that to a long lease , and cause @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their CML Part 2 , and many just require the ' starting rent ' to have been those amounts . I have seen one lender say ' of course we have no issue ' . However , expect big improvements to the whole area if the Government is serious about tackling leaseholds - managing agent fees will surely be targeted , solicitors acting for landlord too , as will ground rent amounts . Not a good time to be a landlord or solicitor/managing agent associated with a landlord . R equals P times I over 1 minus one plus I to the power of minus T Where where --P is the premium payable as a condition of the grant of the tenancy ( and includes a payment of money 's worth ) or , where no premium is so payable , zero , I is 0.06 , and T is the term , expressed in years , granted by the tenancy ( disregarding any right to terminate the tenancy before the end of the term or to extend the tenancy ) ; and This is what the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ PC for OK ? ( Or just pass it to your LCD / small child - ( s ) he wil know some maths ) Any conveyancer receiving a letter from Fatchett 's firm should not respond but should immediately notify their insurers . After consulting the insurers , consider whether it might be possible to agree a deed of variation with the landlord to remove the offending rent review provisions in the lease I am unaware of anyone who has considered a class action against any developers who either knowingly misled the purchaser or included onerous ground rent provisions that are arguably non-binding unfair contract terms ? The Ministry of Housing , Communities & Local Government states that " ... there are a number of leases which contain onerous review provisions , such as those that permit the doubling of the ground rent every 10 years . " Anon at 22.45 refers to this practice still enduring too . When I was a lad , this type of provision was known as a ' Blue Dolphin ' clause after a then notorious @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ example of a mixture of perfidy and incompetence on the part of the lawyers involved . It is surprising , to say the least , to see that such provisions are drafted in leases now . Any solicitor failing to advise a buyer or mortgagee ( in trenchant terms ) on the complete unacceptability of such a provision is surely very likely to be negligent ? It used to be the case that ground rents were most commonly of a fixed sum , and it was really only in the 1960s , as inflation took hold , that means were sought to allow the real value of the ground rent to increase so inflation did not destroy their value . Some may recall that in the mid 1930s ( for example ) a ground rent might be ? 10 or ? 20 yearly , when a youngish solicitor 's income would likely be around ? 500p.a . It does not seem to me wrong in principle to cap ground rents by law . I would not advocate abolition , because in some leasehold schemes ( such as where @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ leaseholders ) the ground rent income provides some cushion where lessees are late paying service charge , or there is a dispute over service charges . However there is surely no principled reason why they should n't be limited to say ? 250 , with provision for increase linked to some recognised index , perhaps with a capping provision limiting any increase in the event the index goes bananas ? I have to say that I am somewhat disappointed at many of the comments on this article . It is clear that over the years many solicitors have been in cahoots with the site office of these developers and have been getting some form of kickback or other benefit . They will have written their standard report for the first property and then rolled it out for the rest of the clients recommended to them . They would not have been particularly keen to highlight an issue which may have put off the client . I do n't think it is enough to say to the client that the rent increases and the basis of the review is in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is paid surely to give advice , not just regurgitate the provisions in different language . Would you have bought a lease with such a rent review provision ? If not then in my view that leaves you open to a claim if you let your client buy . I recently came across a 999 year lease with a rent of ? 250 doubling every 10 years . The client was surprised when I said he could n't buy it , but changed his mind when he did the calculation . After 100 years the rent was ? 34,000.00 and within about 250 years he would have paid off the national debt . However the seller had bought it and is now left with a worthless asset . There is your loss ! There are National house builders out there who have come to a deal to compensate the investor who bought their reversion at 10/15 times the rental , and are now paying the legal costs for leases to be amended to RPI . Why would they do that if they did n't realise there is a big issue @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do something about it . FS is to be commended . In all conscience leasehold purchasers are plainly vulnerable and are entitled to strong and clear advice on ground rents . The government should not cap these pernicious immoral imposts : they should abolish them all . They have no place in modern society . So , now all the conveyancing solicitors who took to these pages to stick the boot in on PI lawyers for their success fees ( when they had no idea of how PI funding works nor the concept of the client 's contribution to costs ) face their own tsunami from the ' we want compensation for losses we did not know we had and do not care about ' brigade . Try arguing ' I only charged you tuppence ha'penny and did you a free will ' and see how far you get . I fail to see how Mr Fatchett 's past conduct impacts on his ability to help people take a pragmatic approach to this issue . Show me who else is trying to help people in this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Bill now for over a year with no real progress . I look forward to seeing this implemented in five years time when it is too late . In my opinion , if conveyancers/solicitors have done a good job they have no reason to worry . Why should they not be held accountable for financial loss flowing from negligent advice ? After all , does n't a solicitor have a duty to call his client 's attention to clauses in an unusual form which may affect the interests of his client ? The profession should refuse to act on the purchase of any new leasehold houses ( except shared ownership ) . That would get the government to finally act to ban them and do something about the existing ones . Leaseholders can still purchase the freehold reversion on houses ( Leasehold Reform Act 1967 ) or lease extensions on flats ( Leasehold Reform , Housing & Urban Development Act 1993 ) . Whilst different qualifying criteria will apply and each case is fact dependent , it is wrong of FS Legal to suggest rights are lost absolutely @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ accredited Solicitor/Surveyor on such topics . Lydia ... I was confused by that . I think the argument being made is that the higher the ground rent , the more expensive it will be to extend the lease -- especially when marriage value becomes payable . Personally I always tell clients about the 80 year marriage value point then advise that they speak to a specialist surveyor to make sure that : a ) the property is worth what they are paying for it taking into account the term remaining ; b ) the client is able to obtain advice from a surveyor re likely extension costs once the term falls below 80 years . So the Solicitor who has brought action against firms for ( to paraphrase ) not making house buyers aware of the implications of their ground rent has recently himself been the subject of an SRA/SDT decision for misconduct .... pot , kettle , black ? ? ? ? ? It is now time that the government steps in and puts a Cap on Ground Rent in the United Kingdom . The legal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Agree with Mr. Moore @13:22 ! ! David Cairns - the standard will be that of a reasonably competent solicitor acting in this field 10 years ago . So , if a responsible body of such solicitors would not have advised then they are ok provided their decision not to so advise bears logical scrutiny . This throws up some problems of course as it may be very difficult to find someone who can give an expert opinion on what was the duty of care 10 years ago . I 'm guessing a couple of such solicitor experts will give the opinions in the vast majority of cases . If a failure to advise was a breach of duty then away we go . If not , then everyone can breathe a sigh of relief ( though I bet if your PII goes up because of this it wo n't come down ) . My firm has received a letter . It 's very simple how they get their work - we have been advised by clients they simply drop leaflets on new estates @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ allegations . One client said he had not heard from them for such a long time that they thought it was not proceeding . Clearly , they feel they are now in a position to have a punt . We shall see how this unfolds . Is there not a simple solution in s1(7) Leasehold Reform Act ' 67 ? " The Secretary of State may by order replace the amount referred to in subsection ( 1 ) ( a ) ( ii ) above and the number in the definition of " I " in that subsection by such amount or number as is specified in the order ; and such an order shall be made by statutory instrument which shall be subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament . " Is it to be FS Legal 's case that solicitors should have advised on the formula in s1 ( 1 ) ( a ) ( ii ) of the ' 67 Act , and that clients would have understood it if they had ? Never met a lawyer yet who can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or whatever ) . " Oh it wo n't be my concern - I 'll only be there a few years " , or " I 'll be dead by the time that happens " ... and all the other such phrases clients come up with when we try to explain the concepts of a lease as a diminishing asset . Still the Common Law may yet provide the proving ground for arguments in relation to these issues more quickly than a Law Commission Report and more sticking-plaster legislation . I wonder how many experienced conveyancers reading this article routinely advised their clients up to about 2 years ago NOT to buy flats because of the Assured Tenancy point ; I would hazard a guess that they were a minority . I have two suggestions to alleviate this issue : 1 . Legislation to increase the rent levels at which the premises become an Assured Tenancy , and ( a ) for these limits to increase annually by RPI and ( b ) be subject to review by statutory instrument every 5 years . - the current levels @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ since then make it logical to review those limits ; 2 . Legislation to state that in any residential lease for 21 years or more granted in future , the rent is deemed to be capped at the level at which the lease would become an Assured Tenancy By what standard is a solicitor to be judged who say advised on a Lease ten years ago and where say the risk of an inflation ( rpi ) based rent rising to above ? 250 pa may or may not materialise depending upon how long the client retains ownership and levels of inflation Was it negligent not to advise on the ? 250 pa rent trap ten years ago . I believe some lenders are still comfortable to lend despite being cogniscant of the legal arguments and even without a mortgagee protection clause I take a contrary view . Ultimately if there was negligence and damage suffered then a claim can be made . I deal with professional negligence and although I do not particularly like saying to other solicitors that they have done wrong , I have to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ checkmylegalfees can be drawn . There will be many clients who have been shafted by bad advice for 100% or too high success fees or by standard 25% deductions regardless of the actual success fee . They should be able to claim their fees back . Yes it all looks a bit grubby but without bin men taking the rubbish away everything will get very dirty and smelly until ultimately a nuclear option is engaged . ps I used to be a bin man . It was great - outdoors , early finish and no regulation . If I went back to it I 'd probably earn more than I do as a 20 year solicitor . I had the Gov.uk website open most of yesterday and was periodically refreshing the page to see when eagerly awaited Consultation would be issued . I 've just finished reading it and it does n't quite do everything that it was hyped up to ... Considering that the third paragraph of the Ministerial Foreward has a glaringly obvious mistake in saying that " some people have been trapped by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " when surely they must mean Leases I 've got to confess that my hopes at what the Consultation would set out were diminished . Apart from an off hand type reference to other types of ownership commonhold is n't mentioned , the closing of the loophole relating to Ground 8 , Schedule 2 of the Housing Act 1988 is n't mentioned and apart from saying that the ban of Leasehold Houses would catch subsequent sales there is n't much mention of what 's going to be done about those who have bought houses on a Leasehold basis - admittedly there may be some overlap with this and Law Commission 's current work but surely any reforms must redress the issues that current Leasehold house owners are facing ... As to this article it would be interesting to know how F S Legal have acquired their Clients and how the list of 500 firms that are being targeted has been compiled . As with any action of this type the number of people putting claims in will most likely rise ... And as someone has already commented what is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ explained properly .... what 's being done to account for people who just did n't read the Legal Report or those who may only recently be putting themselves in the category of someone who was n't informed properly .... me , cynical ? Never ! Having made the move nearly 3 years ago across to acting for Developers from normal residential conveyancing I 'm not waiting with bated breath for one of these letters to arrive the post .... I am however waiting to see what happens with this action and what implications it has .... I know of one development in Manchester where the Landlord is changing the rent review provisions for free and paying the tenants legal costs yet this firm is still soliciting clients to pursue their solicitors ! ' Firms will have a decision to make - whether they accept they have not provided advice to the standard they should have done . If they accept that they have not , the issue is " what damage have we caused ? " . ' Would FS legal like to give some indication @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of been provided , when and how ? I presume that the reference to the ? 250 ground rent refers to whether or not a long leasehold interest in a property at a premium with a ground rent of more than ? 250 ( outside London ) or more than ? 1,000 ( inside London ) now or in the future ( " the Lease " ) would be an assured tenancy under s.1 of the Housing Act 1988 ?

This is a result that gives the Wales team a vibrant look , a sense of possibility , the rush of excitement that comes when a young team triumphs in demanding conditions away from home . The good times are back under Ryan Giggs and they did not even need Gareth Bale to revive them . But this was a defeat that made the Republic of Ireland look tired and old , a home loss inflicted on a team that has run out of attacking players capable of scoring a goal , as well as optimism . Martin O'Neill is in trouble because making your team hard to beat is pointless when you keep getting beaten . Wales were just as bad , if not worse , for long periods , but goals change games and results will always define perceptions . As soon as Harry Wilson 's free-kick found the back of the net in the second half , the visitors were exhilarating and bold , Ireland clueless and frail . Ireland 's players are still playing for O'Neill , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ well . How much you want to blame the manager for that probably depends on your predisposition . There are those who will argue he sets the tone , that it is his job to extract more from this squad . Others continue to recognise that it is hard to win international matches when you do not have players who can score or create a goal . Martin O'Neill 's side lack imaginationCredit : PA The latter will have to fight increasingly hard to be heard across the Irish Sea because the calls for O'Neill to go are getting louder . " I want to carry on doing what we are doing , absolutely , " said O'Neill . " We will have learnt some things tonight , and there were some harsh lessons for some of the younger players out there , but I can not fault the endeavour . " I 've never not asked questions of myself , either as a player or a manager . I take responsibility for every kick out there because that 's my job . That will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what we could have done better . I genuinely believe we have enough quality to mount a serious qualification attempt for the Euros when the actual campaign starts . Next month , hopefully , we will have a couple of players back who are important for us . " Wales , second best without ever looking likely to concede in the first half , secured their second successive victory over Ireland thanks to Liverpool youngster Wilson and Giggs was understandably thrilled , especially with the way they continued to threaten the Ireland goal after taking the lead . This was only the fourth time Wales have won a competitive game without Bale and the fact it was also done in the absence of Aaron Ramsey made it all the more impressive . " It 's not easy when you 're missing quality players like Gareth and Aaron , " said Giggs . " There have been results not gone our way without them . " It was a chance for the players to come in and prove that 's not the case going forward , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , we could have scored more goals , but the thing I 'm most proud about is the clean sheet , that will to defend and putting their bodies on the line . " Ireland were the better team before half-time and should have been in front when they forced a mistake from Wales . James Chester 's loose pass to Matthew Smith was pounced on by Cyrus Christie but he lacked composure , shot first time and allowed Wayne Hennessey to make the save . The miss seemed to remind them of their limitations . Forward passes became a collector 's item , the ball knocked backwards and sideways . The contest had all the excitement and anticipation of a trip to the supermarket , but then came the decisive moment soon after the break . Harry Arter brought down Conor Roberts on the edge of the area and Wilson , on loan at Derby , got a free-kick up and over the wall and beyond Darren Randolph , who had moved the wrong way . |

There are those who make a career out of working with time and others who do so by successfully racing against it . As CEO of leading Swiss watch brand IWC and an enthusiastic amateur cyclist , Christoph Grainger-Herr sometimes finds himself in the rare position of doing both . The 40-year-old sees plenty of parallels between the worlds of watches and two wheels . " You have this wonderful combination of man and machine , " he says . " There is quite a lot of engineering and advanced materials that goes into cycling , and then at the end of the day , it takes somebody 's vision , determination and hard work to have the ultimate adventure . " That 's very similar to how our Pilot Watch collection comes into being , or our Ingenieur watches in the world of car racing . We 're always inspired by a great vision .

" In the end , I think they share that adventure component . A lot of our clients are health-conscious and into sport . We noticed quite a few years ago there was quite an overlap between people being interested in cycling and watches , the same as there is with cars and watches . It makes sense to be active there as a brand . " Part of that includes IWC 's support of the TorTour since its inception in 2009 .

After months of trying not to try the exciting new version of Gmail , the exciting new version of Gmail tried me . I had n't realised it had happened until I opened my laptop and did n't recognise my own inbox . With the horror that creeps up in me like acid reflux to greet all technological advances , I realised that forces unknown had shut down my laptop in the night and upgraded me to the new Gmail while I was asleep . ' Dear God , no ! ' I screamed , as I tapped away furiously trying to change my email back to the format I could understand . But the option in settings for ' Go back to classic Gmail ' had disappeared . ' No ! Please no ! Please ! Christ , no ! ' I wailed like Edward Woodward in TheWicker Man as the pagans are lighting the fire beneath him and the sacrificial chickens . Turns out you can only resist new versions @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ They wo n't let you resist for ever . I do n't know who They is exactly , but it 's not the whizz kids in Silicon Valley getting their millennial kicks out of tormenting the over-45s with new versions of things succeeding new versions of things succeeding new versions of things . Faster than the speed of menopause these new versions of things succeed themselves . Faster than the speed of deteriorating eyesight , faster even than the expansion of bunions . So who is They ? ' They ' is the people the whizz kids work for . I have thought long and hard about this and the only motive I can think of for all this new stuff is to make our attention spans so short that we are sitting ducks for whatever is coming , ultimately . The fact that your own computer can be shut down in the night , remotely , and that something you did n't want can be downloaded on to it by a faceless entity is proof enough of something really scary . If you do n't believe @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ new Gmail is a series of boxes that pop up unbidden and which appear to be in no way controllable by you or me , the ironically entitled user . The main box is very big and when it first pops up it asks you if you want the other boxes to pop up . These boxes are not called boxes by Them , they are called ' alerts ' . This word alerts is used throughout the internet and is designed to show that all this is essential . One is alerted to things one needs to be alerted to . However , if you have Facebook alerts switched on -- and you will unless you have mined deep into your settings to find the underground online caves where Facebook hides the option to turn its alerts off -- then you will be getting alerts popping up on your screen telling you that a person you do not know who you accepted as a Friend because you did n't want to be rude has just posted a comment about her wedding anniversary . This is of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ being told about it because you have alerts . On Gmail , I presume these alerts are designed to alert you to the fact that someone has sent you an email or replied to one you 've sent them , quite as though it had not occurred to you to check your own inbox every now and then , so there is a legitimate need for your inbox to flash in front of you and interrupt what you are doing so you can react immediately to the earth-shattering occurrence of an email being sent to you , just in case death or destitution , presumably , results if you do not respond with lightning speed . That is the ostensible purpose of these alerts . But if we assume that to date there is no known incidence anywhere in the world in which disaster has resulted from a person not being instantly made aware of a posting on Facebook about a stranger 's wedding anniversary , or not receiving an email from Barclaycard about their money transfer rates for that month , let us consider what the actual @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to shatter your attention span , to decimate your ability to think coherently , to be absorbed in a task , to have concentration , to be present . The new Gmail has been flashing the box about whether I want the boxes every 15 seconds for three days now . In order to resist , I have to click ' no ' every time . The only way to stop the box about whether I want the boxes is to say yes to the boxes . I may have to accept the boxes , just to get rid of the box about the boxes . Once they have made me have the boxes , who knows what they can achieve ? |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'made a habit out of handing fighters their first career defeat' does not involve a causee NP object that participates in the event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks an NP object and a VP2[-ing] predicate, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The verb 'take' is followed by 'some of the pain out of trading', where 'trading' is part of a prepositional phrase modifying 'pain', not a VP[-ing] predicate with a causee object. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

PC Gamer is going back to the basics with The Complete Guide to PC Gaming . There 's much more to come , and it 's all being made possible by Razer , which stepped up to support this months-long project . Thanks , Razer ! Whether you love it , hate it , or cohabit in a complicated relationship with it , Steam is central to PC gaming . Its Summer Sales bring us together in a frantic scramble for deals and its cloud saves rescue us from disaster . It has its problems , but remains better than its competitors in many ways ( and it is n't going anywhere either way ) . While it 's not an ultra-complex platform , there 's a lot you can do with Steam that is n't immediately obvious . Here are some tips and tricks for getting the most out of it . And for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tools ( a few of which are listed here ) that 'll make life easier on Steam . The Steam client is a web browser in addition to everything else , but it 's not always a great one . It 's slow and you have to tick a checkbox at " **27;4204;TOOLONG URL address bar when available " to get actual addresses you can copy and paste . It 's also not immediately obvious that you can open links in multiple windows , but hold down Ctrl when you click , or just use the middle-mouse button , and you can open as many windows as you 'd like . Detail View is a useful way of viewing your game library because it slaps lots of information in your face , while Grid View is less functional but looks prettier . List View seems like a pointless compromise between the two , except that instead of being stuck with strict alphabetization it lets you reorder your games by clicking on the categories at the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one for figuring out why your hard drive is full ( for me it 's because Vermintide 2 takes up 49.85 GB ) , but you can also sort by Metacritic score or whether games have cloud saves . While we 're on the subject of Grid View , one thing holding it back from looking as pretty as it could is that some games have ugly icons , no icons at all , or icons that would be nice except they 've gone and covered them with review scores . Fortunately there 's a " Set custom image " option a right-click away , and plenty of collections of gorgeous user-made icons around if , for instance , you 'd like matching art for all your Star Wars games . You can stream to your TV with a Steam Link , either the physical box or the app newer Samsung TVs have , but there 's another way of bouncing games around your devices . In-home streaming is for when you want a game to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gaming rig , but would rather be sitting in a different room with your laptop . It can even cross operating systems , meaning you can stream a game from your Windows PC to , say , a Macbook . You can turn on In-Home Streaming in the Steam settings menu . Then you just need to log into your Steam account on another device on your network , and it 'll show up . If you stream to a laptop , you can always connect that laptop to a TV . Back in Detail View , right-clicking on games brings up the option to assign categories so they 're easier to sort once you 've built up a decent library . You can select multiple games with shift- or ctrl-clicks , and even queue up several installs simultaneously the same way . But if you did n't assiduously sort your library from day one and now you 've got a thousand games , a program called Depressurizer can help . Close down Steam , then assign Depressurizer to sort your games @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ time you restart . Another way to sort your Steam library outside the program itself , the Steam library filters website lets you break down your library by genre , platform , features , even by supported language , all without having to mess with the actual library in Steam . Just feed it your Steam ID , name , or profile URL and you 'll be able to narrow down which games you own that combine , for instance , Fishing and a Great Soundtrack . ( Stardew Valley and Battle Chasers : Nightwar , apparently . ) You probably already know there are Steam curators who recommend games . We 're one , and we 've got a handy list of games that we 've given scores of 90% or higher to . You might not have known there are also curators who provide more informational services , like Cut-Content Police for instance , who note games that have been altered or censored for their Steam release and also link to workarounds to restore that content . It @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ things like EA 's collection of lost DLC for older BioWare games too . If you used that tool to see how much money you 've spent on Steam and then had to go lie down it 's probably worth securing that thing in case somebody gets hold of your password and email account . That means hooking up a second device up to Steam , and it 's the best reason to install Steam 's mobile app , which is otherwise a bit pointless . You can also use your email addreess . Here 's Steam 's page on two-factor authentication to break it down for you . Bring back the days when physical games could be shared between siblings ( and definitely never squabbled over ) thanks to family sharing ( find it in the Steam settings under ' Family ' ) , which allows each Steam account to share a library with five others , spread over as many as 10 machines . In practice this means whoever you decide to call family @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ only when you 're not playing them -- if you start , they 'll be given a grace period of a few minutes before being kicked off . Still , this is a great way to share your games with your kids . It 's worth noting any games that use Games for Windows Live or the Rockstar Social Club ca n't be shared . Do you hate the way Steam looks ? Maybe it 's boring , but I 'm happy with the black-blue-gray aesthetic myself . If you 're not you can download skins like Pixelvision 2 or Air , copy them into C : Program Files ( x86 ) Steamskins , select the one you want in Steam 's Settings>interface menu , restart and enjoy some new colors and fonts . Here 's a collection of some of our favorites . Enhanced Steam is a browser extension that makes shopping in the web version of Steam easier . It adds information on each game 's historical lowest price and current lowest price on competing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a bundle , saving you from having to go to isthereanydeal.com every time you want a bargain . On the subject of browser extensions , Steam Economy Enhancer can also take some of the pain out of trading in the browser version of Steam . Pressing Shift+Tab in most games will bring up the Steam overlay so you can check the time , figure out what the achievement that just popped was about , or look up a guide without alt-tabbing away . With the Steam overlay active you can also take screenshots , which are mapped to F12 by default although you can change that to something else if you 've got one of those damn keyboards where you have to hold down a separate key to access the Function keys . Another useful thing the overlay can do is display your framerate , with options for color and location . Before you go buy the Mortal Kombat Kollection and realize it needs Games for Windows Live to run , check the Big @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you know which games require external DRM and presents fixes for some that have been deprecated after release in ways that impact your ability to play . Do n't care about the Steam Trading Card game ? Get rid of them , and make money doing it . Rather than listing all your cards one by one and setting each price , grab the Steam Economy Enhanceror Steam Inventory Helper Chrome extensions . Both can auto-sell all your cards . In the latter , for example , navigate to Steam in Chrome , sign in , and head to your inventory . Use the ' Select all ' button ( if you do n't see it , make sure the extension is turned on ) to select each page of cards , and then hit the ' sell items ' button . In the upper left you 'll see the option to ' quick sell ' everything you selected . The prices will be set automatically . You 'll still have to confirm each listing in your email or the mobile @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Once they 're purchased , the money will be credited to your Steam account , where it can be used to buy games or in-game items . Steam also functions as a music player . View>Music Details or View>Music Player will let you listen to selected game soundtracks , and you probably have more than you realize . ( Bet you did n't know Shower With Your Dad Simulator 2015 had a soundtrack full of bangers with wonderful names like ' Inglorious Bathdads ' . ) Chill with the down-home tunes of Kentucky Route Zero , enjoy the novelty of A Merry Payday Christmas , or listen to the Portal OST for a flashback to 2007 . The organization is n't ideal -- some games show up as multiple entries with overlapping tracklists -- but the fact it exists at all is nice . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'made a career out of playing the bratty kid' involves a transitive verb 'made' with an NP object 'a career', but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, nor does the NP object function as a causee. Instead, it describes how the subject has developed a career based on playing a certain role, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Netflix had one hell of a job on their hands when they decided to take on a dark version of Sabrina the Teenage Witch . The sitcom version of the story , as most know , is a lasting iconic moment of 90s TV , so to mess with it is close to sacrilege . Thankfully , they for the most part get away with it , and as a result , the ten-episode season run of The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina has managed to do what many thought could n't be done and created an infectious Riverdale-with-spells kind of drama that is sure to bewitch a teen audience . Picking up the life of the 15-year-old half-witch days before her 16th birthday , Sabrina is living her best life with a close group of friends whom she loves , simply ignoring that she is due to leave them all behind for a life in an academy of witches following her Dark Baptism , where she pledges herself to Satan for life . Advertisement Advertisement ( So no pressure there or anything . ) The new series breathes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reality ( Picture : Netflix ) However , as the date draws closer , she has other ideas , and despite the encouragement of her aunts Hilda and Zelda , she just ca n't seem to commit to the idea being a fully fledged member of the occult . Being called a ' half-breed ' and repeatedly cursed by three bitch witches who would be attending the same school as her , and bearing witness to a series of horrific rituals is obviously , not going to help . What follows Sabrina being torn in two -- the purity and simplicity of the normal life versus the intriguing and alluring existence of a witch . As her worlds collide , she continues to struggle to keep the balance . As she does , there are forces and people pulling her in either direction . None more so than those who have been charged to keep an eye on her and walk her into the dark , including Miss Wardell ( Michelle Gomez ) , and Father Blackwood . Zelda and Hilda are hard to stomach to begin @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Picture : Netflix ) The show starts off slowly and clobbers you over the head with enough witchy/black magic cliches that by episode two you 're begging them to stop . Greendale is supposed to be a town that ' always feels like Halloween ' and that 's fine , but does every song on the soundtrack HAVE to have a bewitching theme ? Advertisement Advertisement It 's a little too on-the-nose to have I Put a Spell on You , Monster Mash and Devil Woman all taking place within the space of a few episodes . We do n't really need people saying Praise Satan multiple times to get on board with the fact that yes , they are witches . This should be evident in what they 're doing , and to begin with the show falls victim to the old issue of telling us rather than showing us . Ambrose functions as a grounding voice of reason within the cursed world ( Picture : Netflix ) However , once it feels like its established itself , the show 's sides begin @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you really do buy into the world , and that 's where the real magic happens . Kiernan Shipka plays the well-meaning but naive Sabrina who thinks she knows best despite other 's warnings . The 18-year-old has made a career out of playing the bratty kid thanks to Mad Men , but Sabrina clearly has her heart in the right place , even though her head is definitely not always following suit . Her pull between her two lives is shown perfectly with the developing love triangle between boy-next-door and first love Harvey Kinkle and the impossible-to-deny attraction she has to bad boy warlock Nicholas Scratch . Hilda Spellman ( played by The Office 's Lucy Davis ) , is so sweet she 'll make your teeth rot , and Zelda ( Miranda Otto ) is the bitter antidote to it . The aunts are highly unlikeable to begin with . But only to begin with -- pretty soon you end up falling for them , and the methods behind their madness , as it were . Advertisement Essentially , the show is about the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you love , and to be good people , while also taking pride in who you are . This is shown most prominently through these characters , who just want to do right by the only daughter of their fallen brother , Edward , and the legacy he leaves behind . Even if it means coming across as the bad guy . Father Ambrose is the twisted embodiment of a patriarchal norms Sabrina wants out of ( Picture : Netflix ) Completing the family unit is Ambrose , a cousin of Sabrina 's who somewhat takes over the role of sassy sidekick cat Salem had in the 90s show . The role , played by Chance Perdomo , is also a great voice for the audience -- he says what 's running through our heads on our behalf as multiple plots begin to go awry . His pansexual character bound to the Spellman mortuary ( yup , they run a mortuary ) is always there for advice or a stern talking to , though if Sabrina chooses to listen is a whole other thing . Representation of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with Sabrina 's non-binary friend Susie Putnam repeatedly being targeted for her gender non-conformity , but also refusing to deny who she is at her core . Her pals are there in firm support of this , and retaliate with gusto and never let her feel too down when it does get to her , it 's the kind of positive friendship goals we 're glad to see more on on TV . Advertisement So yes , it gets off to a bumpy start , but the show 's true potential , just like Sabrina 's powers , just needs a little jumpstart in order to manifest themselves . Now they have , there really is no stopping it . The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina season one is released on Netflix in full on 26 October .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It also does not exhibit either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'out of' in a different context to indicate a lack of parking capacity.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'out of' in a different context, referring to the state of being without parking capacity, which does not involve a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Premier League football is finally back after the international break and next up for Manchester United is a trip to Jose Mourinho 's former side Chelsea . It 's set to be a tough test for United with Maurizio Sarri 's side unbeaten in the league so far this season and sitting second in the league , only behind Manchester City on goal difference . And the United manager will be faced the media this afternoon where he hinted at a possible injury crisis but suggested that Ander Herrera could be back in contention having not featured since the win against Burnley at the start of September . Mourinho was also asked about his FA charge and his thoughts about returning to Stamford Bridge again and facing Sarri . He also spoke about Luke Shaw 's new Manchester United contract . Scroll down to see how the press conference played out and for team news ahead of the game tomorrow . A little bit , but it can happen . We are talking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Champions League so they can improve in the Premier League , we are talking about two months . 13:40 Not sure there are many who would agree with this . 13:36 Have you responded to the FA charge yet ? Are you concerned you are being victimised ? Yes I did but I do n't comment . If I answer to your question I probably have another process because I can not imply bias so my answer is no answer . 13:36KEY EVENT How impressed have you been with Sarri and for you going back to Stamford Bridge is it now just another game because so much time has passed ? For me is another game , would I celebrate like crazy my team goal at Stamford Bridge or my team victory at Stamford Bridge ? I do n't think so , I think I would try to control myself and to respect the stadium and the supporters that were my supporters and stadium for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ completely lost my emotional control , which is not easy , so I would think which stadium I am , which public is in the stands but apart from that is another match for me , I want to do well for my team , players , support , I am 100% Manchester United tomorrow , no more space than respect for the stadium and the fans . 13:34 A new deal for Shaw , has a player ever changed your mind like he has ? No , the players are different , men are different , players are diff and they react in different ways to the development process and Luke reacted in the best possible way in these difficult moments , the moments where he was not selected , not playing regular , he was saying the same all the time , ' I want to play for you and United I am going to make it and be the player you want me to be . ' And he did it , he faced the process @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ season start in the best possible way where he went for holidays with a club fitness coach and he arrived in day one in much better conditions than a player that has a holiday just for fun and rest . Then by the tactical point of view I think he absorbed all the info , all the work we accumulate in the past years , mentally he got stronger and of course the happiness of this season to start playing and play regular and to feel the place was his place and the national team , even though he was not happy with his injury against Spain , also the feeling also helped . An accumulation of factors , an important contract for the club to keep him and important for him because is what he wants and when he gets a new contract with Manchester United I think was good news for us . 13:31 You say about smelling change , and progress , I wonder if you have smelt a change and a difference in the players after @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the match then you say it looks an eternity they go and they come and they come back step by step and even today we do n't have every player back . So is a bit strange when you come from the international week but I think the feelings of the last match remain so the players are fine , are happy and focused on the match . 13:28 Which means he will be in the dug out tomorrow . 13:27 When asked ho might return , he told MUTV : Players that are going to make an effort to be available for the team , like Herrera . He trained two days but , with the situation we have , is one step forward and he 's ready to help us . 13:26KEY EVENT Speaking to MUTV Mourinho said : Some came back in good condition and the happiness of some good results . Some came back with injuries , injuries that we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were correct in sending the boys back . We also had surprises with players that we had no idea that they were injured and they arrived with important injuries . The squad shape is that everybody available is selected . 13:22 Looks like two starters confirmed . 13:20 Here 's the latest from Sarri . 13:19 It will be interesting to see if Mourinho 's in a chattier mood this afternoon . Last pre-match press conference lasted less than four minutes . 13:08 His press conference is 1.15pm . 13:07 It will be the first pre-match press conference Mourinho has held since those reports that he was set to lose his job . It 's been two weeks since those reports dropped but there are still reports doing the rounds that Mourinho 's days at Old Trafford could be numbered . He could be asked about his long term future plans this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ He has until 6pm today to respond to the charge of swearing in to the camera after the end of the Newcastle game . It 's unlikely he will have much to say this afternoon on it but it 's a possibility . 12:47 Here 's a reminder of the players who have been injured for the last couple of days or who picked up knocks on international duty : Luke Shaw ( withdrew from England with a knock ) Nemanja Matic ( withdrew from Serbia with a back issue ) Jesse Lingard Ander Herrera Marcos Rojo Marouane Fellaini - reportedly pulled out of training the other day Diogo Dalot - went off injured on international duty 12:45 We 're still waiting for Mourinho so here 's something to keep you going until he arrives . Samuel Luckhurst wrote about how United wingers might be about to make Jose Mourinho forget about transfer regret . Ready to go at Carrington . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 12:27 The United midfielder told Sky Sports he 's expecting a tight game : " For me , those games are the best games to play . You play against the best players , you play against a big club , a big story . You play football to play those big games with a lot of pressure . That 's what you want to play . " You can see this season Chelsea have a lot of possession obviously , they are winning , they have one character you can not miss in Eden Hazard , they say he is on fire , this time he is probably the best player in the PL right now . " The team is going well , they have good results , for us we come back from the Newcastle game , 3-2 winning at home , we need points , so it 's going to be a tough one . I think they need points , we need points . The game is going to be very hard , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Man Utd game , you know , so it 's a big one . " 12:20 Luke Shaw changing his transfer plans The FA charge for allegedly using abusive language Any more contracts in the pipeline - David de Gea , Anthony Martial , etc ? Coming up against Maurizio Sarri for the first time - how do you hurt this Chelsea side ? Meeting during the international break with club chiefs Looking ahead to January yet ? 12:08 It 's that time of the week again , we 're at Carrington for Mourinho 's press conference . |

✔️ | [link] | ⭕ |
Reasoning

The sentence 'Council tenants in some of the most expensive parts of the country have been priced out of benefiting from Margaret Thatcher's "right to buy" scheme, a think tank has warned.' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Here, 'Council tenants' is the NP subject, 'have been priced' is the V1 (passive voice), 'out of benefiting from Margaret Thatcher's "right to buy" scheme' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. The interpretation is prevention, as the tenants are being prevented from benefiting from the scheme due to being priced out. The verb 'priced' fits the category of exerting force or pressure metaphorically. The NP object is implied in the passive construction (the agents doing the pricing), and the causee is the council tenants who are affected by the action. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Council tenants in some of the most expensive parts of the country have been priced out of benefiting from Margaret Thatcher 's " right to buy " scheme , a think tank has warned . In a new report , the free market Adam Smith Institute , calls for an overhaul of the policy to help those who can not afford to buy their current homes even at the discounted rates provided by the scheme . The ASI , backed by two Conservative MPs , says social housing tenants in the most expensive areas should benefit from a new " flexible right to buy " scheme . It says they should be given a grant equal to the discount they would be able to receive under right to buy , and use that sum to buy another home . |

Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman during a visit to the UK earlier this year . The fallout from Khashoggi 's disappearance has put pressure of Saudi Arabia 's de facto leader ( Source : Getty ) Louis Ashworth The backlash against Saudi Arabia over the death of Jamal Khashoggi stepped up again yesterday , with world leaders uniting to condemn the Gulf kingdom 's claims that the journalist and critic died in a " fist fight " at its consulate in Istanbul . German chancellor Angela Merkel described Khashoggi 's killing as " horrific " , saying events " still have n't been cleared up and of course we demand that they be cleared up " . " The official account so far provided of the events in the consulate in Istanbul is inadequate , " she said in a joint statement with her foreign minister . In the US , which is a key ally of Saudi Arabia , President Donald Trump said " obviously there 's been deception , and there 's been lies " in Saudi Arabia 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ally " and said it was possible Saudi Crown Prince , Mohammed Bin Salman had not ordered Khashoggi 's killing . US Treasury secretary Steve Mnuchin , who has pulled out of attending a major investment event in Saudi Arabia this week , said today the Saudi explanation of Khashoggi 's death was a " good first step but not enough " , saying it was premature to discuss sanctions against Riyadh over the incident . The crisis embroiling Saudi Arabia looks set to deepen after its account of the fate of Khashoggi , a prominent critic of its government , shifted over the past two week . Reversing denials that it has been involved in the journalist 's disappearance on 2 October , Saudi officials said yesterday that that Khashoggi had been killed . They said 18 people had been arrested and two senior officials sacked , after an internal probe found the Washington Post writer had been killed in a " a brawl and physical altercation " after " discussions " within its consulate escalated into a fight . Numerous reports @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ death squad " -- several of whom were closely linked to its government and intelligence operations -- to kill Khashoggi as he went to collect marriage documents from the consulate . Jamal Khashoggi , a Washington Post columnist , was a prominent critic of the Saudi Arabian government ( Source : Getty ) Turkish authorities have challenged the Saudi version of events , and claim to have audio that proves the journalist was tortured and murdered . The Washington Post reported that CIA operatives have heard the recording , which the Turks say proves Khashoggi was killed and dismembered by the Saudi team . Today , Reuters reported a new account for a Saudi official , who said Khashoggi was killed in a chokehold after resisting kidnapping . The official said a member of the assassination team then dressed in Khashoggi 's clothes to make it appear as if the journalist had left the consulate . " He was killed in the consulate . We do n't know in terms of details how . We do n't know where the body is , " said al-Jubeir @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ accept a cover-up . A spokesperson for its ruling party told the Turkish state news agency : " We are not prematurely accusing anyone , but it is not acceptable to us for anything to remain covered up . " The wave of international scepticism places further pressure on Bin Salman , the country 's de facto leader , who has mounted an extensive public relations campaign in the West to bill himself as a modernising reformer . King Salman , the country 's monarch , signalled confidence in his son yesterday : granting Bin Salman new powers over the country 's intelligence bodies to further entrench the Crown Prince 's already-sweeping powers . The fallout from Khashoggi 's death has prompted many prominent Western figures to distance themselves from Bin Salman and the Saudi regime . During the past fortnight , several would-be attendees cancelled plans to attend Saudi Arabia 's Future Investment Initiative business conference , billed as " Davos in the desert " , set to take place this week . Several major firms remain committed to attending as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ BAE Systems , McKinsey and Deloitte . International upbraiding over Khashoggi 's death may prompt an economic backlash against Saudi Arabia . If the US were to introduce sanctions against the country , the oil-rich Saudis could respond in kind by raising fuel prices , possibly prompting a spike in its global price . The French foreign affairs minister , Jean-Yves Le Drian , who said the country still needed to provide answers : " They require a thorough and diligent investigation to establish all the responsibilities and to ensure that those responsible for the murder of Mr Jamal Khashoggi are answerable for their actions . " The call for further investigation was echoed by the UK 's Foreign Office , where a spokesperson said : " We send our condolences to Jamal Khashoggi 's family after this confirmation of his death . We are considering the Saudi report and our next steps . As the Foreign Secretary has said , this was a terrible act and those responsible must be held to account . " The Danish Prime Minister , Lars Lokke Rasmussen , said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he died , after previously insisting he left the consulate alive , shows that we have n't been told the full truth . " Canadian foreign minister Chrystia Freeland , whose tweets on human rights led to a diplomatic spat with Saudi Arabia earlier this year , said the kingdom 's explanations for Khashoggi 's death " lack credibility " . |

Actress Cate Blanchett has defended straight actors who take on LGBT roles in film and television . During a Q&A at the Rome Film Festival , the 49-year-old - famed for her Oscar-nominated role as a lesbian woman in the 2015 film Carol - addressed the criticism straight actors face for playing LGBT characters . According to the Hollywood Reporter , Blanchett said : " It speaks to something that I 'm quite passionate about in storytelling generally , but in film specifically , which is that film can be quite a literal medium . And I will fight to the death for the right to suspend disbelief and play roles beyond my experience . " She then went on to suggest that reality television is to blame for the backlash , as Blanchett believes actors are now expected to only take on roles from which they can draw experience : " I think reality television and all that that entails had an extraordinary impact , a profound impact on the way we view the creation of character . " " I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ downside of it is that we now , particularly in America , I think , we expect and only expect people to make a profound connection to a character when it 's close to their experience .

In a statement , the actress told Out.com : " In light of recent ethical questions raised surrounding my casting as Dante Tex Gill , I have decided to respectfully withdraw my participation in the project . " " Our cultural understanding of transgender people continues to advance , and I 've learned a lot from the community since making my first statement about my casting and realise it was insensitive .

Actress Cate Blanchett has defended straight actors who take on LGBT roles in film and television . During a Q&A at the Rome Film Festival , the 49-year-old - famed for her Oscar-nominated role as a lesbian woman in the 2015 film Carol - addressed the criticism straight actors face for playing LGBT characters . According to the Hollywood Reporter , Blanchett said : " It speaks to something that I 'm quite passionate about in storytelling generally , but in film specifically , which is that film can be quite a literal medium . And I will fight to the death for the right to suspend disbelief and play roles beyond my experience . " She then went on to suggest that reality television is to blame for the backlash , as Blanchett believes actors are now expected to only take on roles from which they can draw experience : " I think reality television and all that that entails had an extraordinary impact , a profound impact on the way we view the creation of character . " " I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ downside of it is that we now , particularly in America , I think , we expect and only expect people to make a profound connection to a character when it 's close to their experience . " The news comes after Scarlett Johansson pulled out of upcoming film Rub & Tug - which was set to see the actress take on the role of a transgender man - after online backlash . In a statement , the actress told Out.com : " In light of recent ethical questions raised surrounding my casting as Dante Tex Gill , I have decided to respectfully withdraw my participation in the project . " " Our cultural understanding of transgender people continues to advance , and I 've learned a lot from the community since making my first statement about my casting and realise it was insensitive .

" We are also dedicated to remaining active in helping our affected family to transition as smoothly as possible " Dreadnought co-developer Six Foot has laid off a third of its staff . As reported by Game Informer ( thanks , PC Gamer ) , the studio cites the delay bringing the free-to-play shooter to Steam as one of the reasons it was forced to offer 45 of its staff the choice of terminating their positions or taking unpaid leave .

I am grateful to Prof. Savulescu and Dr Giubilini for taking the time and care to respond in detail to my Declaration in Support of Conscientious Objection in Health Care . I also thank Prof. Savulescu for giving me the opportunity to reply to their lengthy analysis . The authors make a series of important criticisms and observations , all of which I will face directly . The topic of freedom of conscience in medicine is both contentious and likely to become increasingly urgent in the future , so it is as well to dispel misunderstandings , clarify assertions and respond to objections as thoroughly as possible . That said , I hope I do not try the reader 's patience by discussing Giubilini and Savulescu 's objections point by point , in the order in which they raise them . Conscientious objection in health care -- that is , healthcare practitioners objecting to performing certain legal , safe , and beneficial medical procedures ( e.g. abortion ) that a patient requests by appealing to their personal moral values -- is one of the most debated topics in medical ethics at present time . Reply : I object to this way of characterising conscientious objection ( CO ) . ( i ) CO encompasses more than procedures : it includes all manner of health-care services and treatments . ( ii ) Whether a given treatment ( procedure , service , etc. ) is safe or beneficial is itself precisely what is in dispute in many cases . ( iii ) The term ' personal moral values ' devalues the source of the objection . The conscientious objector believes that a given treatment violates their deeply and sincerely held ethical principles , whether secular or religiously grounded . Although at the moment doctors ' private conscience enjoys a lot of legal protection -- most laws that make abortion legal contain clauses that exempt doctors from performing the procedure if they so wish . Reply : This is false in at least two respects . First , the authors restrict the question of conscience to abortion . Even if most abortion laws around the world come with a conscience clause , this does not amount to ' a lot of legal protection ' for conscience . ( What is the force of ' private ' -- again to devalue the appeal to conscience ? ) I am concerned -- and the Declaration I authored reflects this -- with all aspects of health care . Abortion , I argue is but a flashpoint of the conscience debate for purely historical reasons . As euthanasia prohibitions are relaxed around the world , conscience debates will move in that direction , and then in many other directions as medical technology and its availability continue their rapid advance . Secondly , the authors think that a conscience clause exempting a practitioner from ' performing ' a procedure -- say abortion -- is good enough , whereas defenders of CO are concerned also with protection from being compelled to cooperate with or assist in objected-to procedures , within reason . The sad case of the midwives Doogan and Wood shows why exemption from performance is not enough . We have provided reasons , both in this forum and in our academic work , for why we think that conscientious objection in health care is not morally permissible and should not be allowed in the case of procedures that are legal , safe , beneficial , autonomously requested by patients and , more generally , consistent with the standards of good medical practice ( see e.g. Savulescu 2006 , Savulescu and Schuklenk 2017 , Giubilini 2014 , Giubilini 2017 ) . Some people disagree and advance reasons for the opposite view . Reply : This is a tendentious way of putting the disagreement . If the authors added ' and procedures that in no way violate moral principle to administer ' , I for one would sign up to their formulation . The problem is that conscientious objectors believe that the procedures they object to are not safe , or not beneficial , or if safe and beneficial are otherwise procedures that violate moral principles . The authors make it sound as though we all know or we all agree about what is safe and beneficial ( and otherwise morally permissible ) but that conscientious objectors have a prima facie irrational concern . This is just not the case . One of the scholars who has more clearly and straightforwardly articulated the principles and reasons in support of conscientious objection in health care is Professor Oderberg of Reading University . Prof Oderberg was recently invited to debate the issue with Julian Savulescu at the Masters Course in Practical Ethics run by the Uehiro Centre here at the University of Oxford . On that occasion , Prof Oderberg 's defense of conscientious objection centred around a series of principles and considerations that he very effectively formulated in the 17 main points that constitute his " Declaration in support of conscientious objection in health care " , published on the University of Reading website and which is available for people who agree with him to sign . We believe this declaration should be discussed because it presents in a clear , accessible , and rigorous way the reasons that often underpin positions in favour of conscientious objection in health care , but that are not always so clearly formulated . However , we want to explain why we think that each of the points of the Declaration fails to support the idea of a right to conscientious objection in health care . We are presenting here below each of Prof Oderberg 's points immediately followed by our reply . Freedom of conscience and religion are fundamental rights in any liberal , democratic society professing pluralism and tolerance . OUR REPLY : We agree . Hardly anyone in our Western societies would deny that these are fundamental rights . However , needless to say -- and Professor Oderberg certainly agrees -- these are not absolute rights . There is hardly any absolute moral or legal right . In this case , there can be constraints both with regard to what kind of things a person can do or refrain from doing in the name of their conscience , and with regard to the circumstances in which they can legitimately do or refrain from doing these things . In particular , it remains to be established that a generic right to freedom of conscience entails , logically or ethically , a right to conscientious objection to certain specific activities within a specific profession that a person freely chooses . Reply : On the contrary , freedom of conscience must entail this if it entails anything at all . From freedom of conscience comes the right not to be compelled by the state to act in ways that violate one 's deeply and sincerely held moral and/or religious principles . This basic civil right does not vanish as soon as one freely takes up ' a specific profession ' , any more than freedom of expression or freedom of assembly , for example . To be sure , one 's civil rights become subject to various hedges and qualifications ; we can and should have a deep debate about where the limits lie . But that these basic rights are extinguished because a person chooses a profession ( most of us have to , do n't we ? ) strikes me as implausible and ungrounded . Professional standards and protection of other people 's right to health care , for instance , weigh heavily against extending a right to freedom of conscience into the domain of professional obligations . Individuals are free to choose careers that do not involve activities they morally object to , but if they choose otherwise , they should take on the responsibilities that their professional role entails . People can have their conscience , and eat it too . Just not in professions that require them to do what their conscience proscribes . Reply : The ' free choice ' argument enunciated here is probably the most common one against medical conscience rights . Repetition does not , however , make an argument sound . What is the import of the fact that a person freely takes up a profession -- that they become a mere functionary of the state , or of their professional standards body ? Doctors as mere state functionaries is not an idea with a great history behind it . Or do medical professionals become mere personal valets of their patients because they have freely chosen to practise their profession ? Suppose a person were forced to become a doctor ; what difference would that make in the authors ' eyes ? Given that the ' right to health care ' apparently means that conscience rights are expunged ( if they ever existed in the first place ) , why should it matter to the authors whether ' legal , safe , beneficial , autonomously requested ' care is provided by a doctor who is dragooned rather than a volunteer ? Freely choosing a profession does not entail that you ' sign up ' to every requirement laid down by that profession 's current standards , or that you must obey every law governing that profession no matter how unjust you believe it to be . To think otherwise is to concoct a veritable recipe for professional corruption . Suppose I freely join the legal profession . I then discover that the way to success , advancement , promotion to partner , the esteem of my colleagues , is to construct massive tax avoidance schemes that , while within the letter of the law , totally break its spirit and result in major unfairness . Must I go along with all of this because I freely chose to be a lawyer , because I voluntarily signed up to the rules of the game ? No , I should be legally permitted to resist such involvement without fear of discrimination , demotion , or lack of advancement ; and I certainly should not be barred from entering the profession in the first place . Why is health care any different ? In other professions , and for many activities within the medical profession , professionals are not allowed to simply follow their conscience and ignore good professional standards . For example , they are not and should not be allowed to refuse to prescribe antibiotics , administer vaccines , deny blood transfusions , and so on . A general principle of freedom of conscience does not justify these objections . Reply : I have never said otherwise . On the contrary , where there can be no reasonable disagreement that administering a certain treatment is safe , beneficial , and no threat to the professional or moral integrity of the practitioner , there should be no right to conscientious objection . It is not about ' simply following conscience ' or ' ignoring good professional standards ' . I am all in favour of good standards and not treating one 's conscience as a kind of excuse to get out of doing something one does not like . The appeal to conscience is a serious affair , never to be taken lightly . A legal and regulatory framework is needed that protects the right but also enables adjudication of particular cases . As far as I am concerned , for the most part the common sense and skilful judgment found in our courts is the mechanism by which the assessment of a conscientious objection as reasonable or unreasonable should be carried out . Article 18 of the U.N . ' s Universal Declaration of Human Rights proclaims : ' Everyone has the right to freedom of thought , conscience and religion ; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief , and freedom , either alone or in community with others and in public or private , to manifest his religion or belief in teaching , practice , worship and observance . ' The words of Article 18 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights , and of Article 9 of the European Convention on Human Rights , are almost identical . OUR REPLY : We wholeheartedly agree . But to the extent that these codes are inspired by the principle stated at point 1 above -- as indeed they are -- they are subject to the same considerations : the rights mentioned are not absolute ones and it remains to be established that they entail a right to conscientious objection to certain specific activities within a freely chosen profession . Reply : I have already addressed the entailment between the general right and the specific right , but I would add that the civil rights of an individual are not lost merely because one joins a group with its own set of rules of conduct , although the rights may well be qualified . For example , a doctor 's civil right to free speech does not mean she can say whatever she likes to a patient about their situation ; there are rules of professional courtesy , discretion , and so on . The idea that civil rights are somehow extinguished or superseded by dint of membership of a professional body , however , can not be accepted . If Giubilini and Savulescu 's reasoning were correct , then one must deny freedom of conscience to individuals as citizens as well , since although most people do not ' sign up ' to be citizens , they are always free to emigrate , just as a doctor is free to leave the medical profession ! Or maybe we should just deny freedom of conscience to immigrants , because they chose to come to their new country in the first place . Just as one does not have to become a doctor , one does not have to immigrate either . Such consequences of Giubilini and Savulescu 's position are absurd . If they are right , one might as well tear up the U.N . Declaration and every convention that repeats its endorsement of freedom of conscience . Both sides of this debate accept that when you join a professional body , you sign up to certain rules . These rules can qualify a person 's civil rights , often significantly . The question in dispute , however , is what . What , exactly , does a health care professional sign up to ? In my view , and that of the supporters of medical conscience rights , he does not sign up to being compelled to violate his sincerely and deeply held moral principles just because the state says so , or the rules of the professional body in question . Moreover , relying on codes is normally not a good way of making ethical arguments : codes can always be dropped , adjusted , updated . And they normally refer to general principles whose application to actual cases requires taking other values into account . Reply : There is nothing magical in my use of the word ' code ' . I could as well have said ' system ' , ' body of principles ' , or some such . I appeal to this for important reasons to which I will advert later on . Ethical arguments , like all arguments , depend on systematic reasoning . The application of general principles to specific cases is often subtle and difficult -- a problem for everyone , philosopher or not , defender of conscience or opponent . Yes , people 's principles sometimes change , but what of it ? Should we deny freedom of religion to a religious believer because one day they might become an atheist ? Should we deny a person 's freedom to speak their left-wing views because one day they might become a conservative ? In health care , conscience plays an essential role in the professional judgment -- often subtle and delicate -- that practitioners must exercise in their daily work . If health care workers are not to be reduced to mere functionaries ( of the state , of the patient , of the legal system ) , they must be free to exercise their professional judgment and to allow their consciences to inform that judgment . This freedom of professional judgment informed by conscience must translate into the freedom not to be involved in certain activities or practices to which there is a conscientious objection . OUR REPLY : We agree that " conscience plays an essential role in the professional judgment -- often subtle and delicate -- that practitioners must exercise in their daily work . " Indeed medical practitioners , or anyone , must not be reduced to " mere functionaries " . However , one of us has argued that this role is fulfilled by doctors forming all things considered value judgements about what patients should do , and engaging patients in a free and equal dialogue about these ( Savulescu 1995 , Savulescu 1997 ) : if at the end of such a dialogue , where the doctor treats the patient as an equal whose moral view is deserving of respect , the patient opts for a course of action that is legal and within the scope of the doctor 's practice , and consistent with distributive justice , then the doctor should provide it , even if she disagrees ethically . That is what it is to be a professional . Reply : This description of the doctor-patient relationship does not represent a ' free and equal ' exchange . On the contrary , according to the authors , dialogue must be followed by the doctor 's doing just what the patient asks , even if ( I presume ) the patient can get the legal procedure or service they want in a timely and effective manner from some other doctor who does not have a conscientious objection to providing it . For all the high-minded talk of equality and respect , this a relationship of employer to functionary . What about the doctor 's moral view : is it too deserving of respect ? How is that respect supposed to be manifested , according to Giubilini and Savulescu ? This is not about mere ethical disagreement . It is about professional and personal integrity . But it could be argued that even this position gives too much power to the doctor and his or her conscience , at least according to certain understandings of conscience . Indeed , that one 's professional judgments require one to consult one 's conscience ( e.g. Sulmasy 2017 ) is a problematic statement , because a lot depends on what one means by ' conscience ' . On some understandings of conscience , the statement is plainly false . Philosophically , the concept of ' conscience ' has a variety of meanings and a complex history ( one of us has provided an account here ) . Not all of them have relevance for professional judgments . For instance , in the Christian tradition ' conscience ' is sometimes understood as the ( imperfect ) faculty through which we discover the law of God within our heart . Generally speaking , the voice of God is not essential to professional judgments -- unless you are a minister of a Church -- because what is good and bad professional judgement can not be determined by religion . In the case of medicine , doctors and patients might have different religious views , and religious prescriptions can differ from commonly accepted standards of good medical practice ( McConnell 2018 ) . Reply : I agree -- doctors and patients might have different religious views , and thereby different ethical views about the right thing to do . Or one might be a religious believer and the other not , or perhaps neither will be religious believers . They will still have ethical views , will they not ? In which case disagreements can arise and this is precisely why freedom of conscience for the medical professional must be legally recognised , so that they are not compelled by the patient , the state , or their professional body , to act in ways they sincerely consider to be a serious violation of deeply held moral principles . Everyone has their ' red lines ' . Doctors are no exception . Nonetheless , we remain " agnostic " as to whether religious values should enter the doctor-patient relationship . Provided the doctor is willing to express but not enforce his or her values , and respect the patient 's own values , such value pluralism is a justifiable part of liberal society . Reply : The conscience debate is not essentially about the place of religious belief in the doctor-patient relationship . True , many recent disputes have involved conscientious objections deriving from religious belief , but such a dispute need have no religious basis whatsoever . I and those who agree with me often speak interchangeably of freedom of religion and freedom of conscience , with one doing duty for the other even though freedom of conscience includes , but is not co-extensive with , aspects of freedom of religion . Freedom of conscience and religion as an overarching freedom is spoken about often , as by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms , the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights , the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights , among many other treaties , conventions , and legal judgments . In short , it is highly misleading to frame the medical conscience debate as one about the place of religion in medicine . It is also a misrepresentation of the debate to talk about a doctor 's ' enforcing their values ' on anyone . As long as the patient has full and fair access to all legally available treatments and services , where is the enforcement ? The right to legal treatment does not entail the right to obtain it from any particular person . The rights of religion and conscience are , however , not absolute . Article 29 of the U.N . Declaration ( with similar provisions elsewhere ) states : ' In the exercise of his rights and freedoms , everyone shall be subject only to such limitations as are determined by law solely for the purpose of securing due recognition and respect for the rights and freedoms of others and of meeting the just requirements of morality , public order and the general welfare in a democratic society . ' OUR REPLY : We agree on this principle . However , this formulation is quite vague .. For what exactly are the " just requirements of morality " against freedom of conscience ? A moral obligation to act according to the professional standards of one 's chosen profession might count as a just requirement of morality against a claim to freedom of conscience . If it did n't , then many professions would turn into mere anarchy . Reply : I do not suggest for a moment that international conventions and declarations are sufficiently precise to guide the law in liberal societies without plenty of further work . I take them to be no more than highly important frameworks for basic rights in such societies . ( I leave aside societies without a liberal framework , where the debate over rights would involve a host of other issues . ) True , the formulations are vague in some respects , as is every statute ever enacted and every legal judgment handed down by a court . We can say the same about freedom of speech , of the press , of assembly , freedom from torture , slavery , and all other basic rights . Why single out freedom of conscience ? More importantly , the persistent appeal to ' professional standards ' strikes me as potentially question-begging . After all , what if the standards included the right to conscientious objection ? The British Medical Association 's own handbook of ethics and law , Medical Ethics Today ( 3rd edition , 2012 , p.33 ) states : ' Doctors have rights to their own moral views and can opt out of some lawful procedures , if this would not endanger patients . ' Read in the context of other remarks by the BMA , this right to opt out seems limited only to abortion , fertility treatment , and some end-of-life decisions . ( By contrast , the view of the General Medical Council appears more liberal . ) Although I disagree with the precise formulation and the BMA 's interpretation of the situation , my point is that appealing to professional standards threatens to beg the very question of whether CO should be part of those standards in the first place . Standards are a good indicator of general thinking by medical professionals about the nature of their job , but they can not take the place of an argument . An ethical vegetarian waitress might want to be exempted from serving meat without losing her job ; as a matter of fact , a significant proportion of Muslim medical students want to be exempted from medically inspecting patients of the opposite sex ( 36% ) or intoxicated with recreational drugs ( 18.5% ) , in the name of their freedom of conscience ( Strickland 2012 ) . Reply : Intuitions may differ , but none of this strikes me as particularly problematic . Fortunately for the vegetarian waitress , a thriving private market in restaurants means she can find the perfect establishment to work in . Unfortunately for the health care worker who is employed by a socialist medical system such as we have in the UK , the choice of where to work is a much more serious problem . When assessed against professional standards and expectations , these types of objections are all equivalent : there is no reason to think that some ( say , religious conscientious objection to abortion ) have a stronger claim than others ( say , conscientious objection to serving meat ) . Reply : Perhaps , but my concern is health care and the integrity of the medical profession . It is important to note that the ' just requirements of morality ' are not confined to respecting other people 's rights and liberties . It might still be wrong to fail to comply with professional standards and expectations even if other people 's rights are not violated ( for instance because a woman to whom a doctor denies an abortion can easily get the same medical service elsewhere , or because a customer to whom a waitress denies a meat dish can get it from another waiter ) . Reply : It may be wrong to fail to comply in this way but it can never be merely because a person is acting on their own right conscientiously to object . As I say in my Declaration : ' The rights of others ... are not violated merely because they can not be enforced against a person exercising their freedom of conscience and religion -- for otherwise this freedom itself would be meaningless . ' One might appeal , for instance , to a duty of fairness towards one 's employer ( including when the employer is the state ) and towards one 's colleagues , e.g. a duty to perform the same professional activities as any other colleague who works on the same salary . Reply : This strikes me as not very convincing . If fairness to one 's employer means doing whatever one 's employer requires under penalty , irrespective of morality , justice , or integrity , then one truly is a mere functionary -- of the state , if this is one 's employer . If we allow conscience , in some cases , to trump state-imposed obligations even in wartime , how could it be logical to deny it in peacetime ? A similar point applies to fairness in respect of one 's colleagues . Does ' the same professional duties ' mean performing every single kind of activity as a prerequisite for being paid the same ? If so , then millions of employees are being unfair to millions of their colleagues every day of the working week ; this is an implausible result . We concur with the U.N . and other international bodies and conventions that freedom of conscience and religion should not violate the legally recognised rights of others and that the freedom can be limited by the just requirements of morality . This applies both to direct participation in various practices and to assistance or co-operation with them , such as facilitating them by means of referral to another practitioner . OUR REPLY : We agree with this point , with the proviso we made in our response to point 4 about what constitutes a ' just requirement of morality ' . As said , it is not just about protecting other people 's rights . The rights of others , however , are not violated merely because they can not be enforced against a person exercising their freedom of conscience and religion -- for otherwise this freedom itself would be meaningless . OUR REPLY : Nobody is forcing a conscientious objector to enter medicine or to continue in it . Reply : See my earlier remarks , including what I said about freedom to emigrate . This oft-repeated statement is of mere rhetorical force ; it lacks logical force . If conscience is important , one will incur significant costs to protect it . Conscientious objectors to conscription to war were incarcerated or experimented upon . Reply : Many were badly mistreated , to be sure . I have no doubt some were insincere cowards . Not all were . Many others belonged to religious denominations with centuries of pacifist tradition behind them . Thousands took up alternative work , such as medical care for the wounded ( an obvious choice ) , agriculture for the war effort , construction , and so on . Today 's conscientious objectors pay no such costs . A compromise position would be to deny conscientious objectors entry into medical specialties involving their objection ( Savulescu and Schuklenk 2017 ) . The cost would be minimal -- choosing another career or even branch of medicine . But today conscientious objectors want to incur no cost for them imposing burdens on others . Reply : The proposed ' compromise ' seems to me more like a trouncing . Why should conscientious objectors have to avoid an entire specialty because of concerns about one kind of procedure or service within it ? A speciality can of course be so narrow that an objector would not be treated unfairly were they required to avoid that particular speciality -- say transgender surgery or cosmetic surgery purely for enhancement . If they objected to such procedures in general they would not expect the relevant speciality to be open to them . But what about midwifery , or obstetrics and gynaecology , or sports medicine , or neurology ? These are broad specialties with many kinds of procedure and treatment within them . Are we to say that if a neurologist objected to administering transcranial direct current stimulation for the purpose of ( alleged ) cognitive enhancement , they should leave neurology altogether ? Or that an aspiring neurologist should be barred from that discipline because of advance refusal on ethical grounds to carry out such a procedure ? There may be no pressing case involving this particular example at the moment , but my refrain is that it is only a matter of time before conscience issues start troubling large numbers of health care workers across a multitude of disciplines . Freedom of conscience and religion is not an absolute right ; however , in this point 6 of the declaration , neither a duty to abide by standards of good professional practice within a freely chosen profession nor a duty to respect other people 's right to health care are taken to be strong enough to outweigh an alleged right to freedom of conscience and religion in health care provision . Reply : This is not what point 6 of the Declaration says . The point says that a person can not complain that their health care rights are violated merely because a health care worker refuses on conscience grounds to provide what the person wants . Whether health care rights are violated depends on the case at hand . My view , as per point 12 , is that ' the strong presumption in favour of conscientious objection would be rebutted if it could be shown that the act or practice in question were such that no reasonable person could object to its performance in the particular health care circumstances at hand . ' In other words , a putative conscientious objection can be unreasonable . It might also be insincere , or for some other reason not rise to the level of genuine objection on grounds of conscience . In a country like Italy with very high rates of conscientious objection to abortion -- with peaks of 80% in certain regions -- each conscientious objector poses a serious risk to the health of women seeking abortion and to their right to access safe and legal abortion because it is very difficult for a woman to find a doctor willing to perform the abortion ( see e.g Minerva 2015 ) ; Reply : I disagree with this reading of the Italian situation . Exact figures are hard to come by , but from what I can discern , the abortion rate in Italy is about 1% , around 100k per year . It has been steady since 2004 or in slight decline in a country whose population has barely increased in over a decade . The rate is comparable to Spain and Greece , two natural comparators . It does not look on the face of it as though Italian women are having serious trouble getting access to abortion . There has been a decline in the ratio of abortions to live births since 1981 , from about 1/3 to 1/5 , but there are likely to be many factors influencing that , including cultural and religious , and a recognition of Italy 's demographic problems . No doubt conscientious objection plays a part , and I do not mean to suggest that Italian women have no trouble accessing abortion in every region , town , city , in every situation . All I am suggesting , based on the evidence , is that abortion seems pretty easy to get . besides , doctors who are not conscientious objectors are overburdened for having to perform a disproportionate amount of abortions . In Oderberg 's view , these considerations are irrelevant because the alleged right to conscientious objection would trump such considerations . Reply : It is up to the state , or the market , or whichever system regulates health care provision , to ensure that no patient is denied their right to legally available treatment . It is not for conscientious objectors to fix this problem any more than it is the job of an accused exercising his right to remain silent to ensure that the prosecution gets its evidence in some other way , or of a baker who objects to selling a cake with a pro-gay marriage slogan on it to ensure that the customer can obtain their cake from another retailer . So one can not help but wonder what would actually constitute , in Oderberg 's mind , an appropriate constraint on an alleged right to freedom of conscience in health care provision by health care professionals . Absent a valid answer , point 6 implies that this declaration takes freedom of conscience or religion to be absolute rights , which they are not . Reply : Point 12 of the Declaration answers this very question , albeit in a skeleton fashion . I continue to call on the UK and other parliaments , and the courts , to develop a statutory and judicial framework for drawing the appropriate boundary between freedom of medical conscience and the right to safe and legal treatment . Moreover , the ' just requirements of morality ' are precisely what are in dispute in a case of conscientious objection . OUR REPLY : we agree : this is precisely the point we made above in our reply to point 4 . The fact that people disagree about what the just requirements of morality are , however , does not imply that people should be free to stick to their own conscience . We will never get to agree on many substantial ethical issues , but disagreement does not give people a free pass to behave as they like in any sphere of public life , including professional life . Reply : There are two non sequiturs in this paragraph . First , it does not follow from ethical disagreement simpliciter that people should be ' free to stick ' to their own conscience . I have never claimed that people should be ' free to stick ' to their own conscience , as though this was an unqualified , ' come what may ' right . Nor am I deducing freedom of conscience from mere ethical disagreement . Rather , my point is that in a professedly liberal , tolerant , pluralistic , diverse society , there is no single ethical system imposed by the state ; or , rather , there must not be . The state has no right in such a society either to impose an ethical code upon doctors in the state sector , nor by regulation of the private market . Imposing an ethical code means conscience goes out of the window , and doctors become mere functionaries of the state . Secondly , it does not follow from ethical disagreement , and I have never argued , that disagreement gives people a ' free pass to behave as they like ' . That would be crazy . The right to medical conscience must be carefully legislated and regulated , with various hedges built in , and a developing jurisprudence is required to give it consistent and detailed shape over time . Furthermore , in a liberal , democratic society the state may not play favourites by choosing one system of morality to trump all others no matter what objections of conscience are made against it . Conscientious objectors must not be silenced or marginalised merely because of their unwillingness to participate in activities to which they object . OUR REPLY : Choosing one system of morality over others in the regulation of professional requirements is indeed permissible and necessary . We should not let doctors refuse to examine patients of the opposite sex , as 36% of Muslim medical students in the UK would like to be allowed to do ( Strickland 2012 ) , just because their religion or any other value proscribes it . Reply : I ca n't say I find such a refusal particularly problematic . There can certainly be reasonable disagreement over whether examination of a patient by someone of the opposite sex is ethically appropriate . I take no sides ; I just do n't see the problem . The state is not impermissibly ' playing favourites ' if it merely requires professionals to abide by the recognized and socially accepted standards of good professional practice of a freely chosen profession . Reply : It surely is playing favourites , if the state 's standards , or those of the profession , ride roughshod over any dissenting point of view . If I might indulge in ad hominism for a moment : I find it hard to believe the authors would be saying this if the ' recognized and socially accepted standards of good professional practice ' were unabashedly contrary to what the authors believe those standards should be . Freedom of conscience for dissenters would , I surmise , be at the top of their policy agenda . This point 8 relies on the false assumption that all systems of morality are on equal footing for the purpose of any policy making in a secular state : according to this point , as long as there is someone that holds a certain moral or religious view , that moral view should be considered on a par with any other moral view when it comes to deciding what people can and can not do , or else the state would be ' playing favourites ' . Reply : I simply do not say this . I allow that there can unreasonable appeals to conscience . What is reasonable has to be settled by parliament and the courts , with plenty of room for lobbying and argument on all sides . If the appeal is reasonable , no liberal state can play favourites and compel obedience contrary to conscience . This is radical moral relativism and a mistake . Reply : Lest there be any misapprehension , I am no moral relativist . But as far as I am concerned , in a liberal and pluralistic society one seeks to effect changes in the law through the usual means of lobbying and persuasion , and of course the ballot box . One does not do it by trampling on freedom of conscience . This no more implies moral relativism than freedom of speech in a liberal society implies that all things spoken are equally plausible . For many professions , there will be people who disagree ethically with some of its professional standards and requirements . Creationists will disagree with the professional requirement on teachers to teach evolution ; racists will disagree with the professional requirement on doctors to treat patients of different ethnicities equally ; vegetarians will disagree with professional requirements on waiting staff to serve meat ; pro-life people will disagree with professional requirements on certain doctors to perform abortions . Reply : With a properly worked out set of laws and jurisprudence on freedom of conscience , there will be a way of handling all such cases -- not always in a fashion that make all sides happy , but in a way that respects basic rights . In any case , since the topic at hand is health care , it is best to stick with it . As far as abortion is concerned , conscience is protected to some degree in most jurisdictions . In my view it does not go far enough , since cooperation is not taken into account . The authors think this is simply wrong , and I disagree . But appealing to allegedly absurd consequences in other professions does not make their case . They seem to think that no reasonable consensus can be reached on controversial cases , and that parliaments or courts should not even try to develop it . The state would impermissibly play favourites if it excluded people from the public discussion about what represents good professional standard and policy and about changing professional standards and policies . By including people in this discussion and giving voice to their different views , the state discharges its obligation to be impartial . But it can not allow everyone to object to everything merely on the basis of their personal moral views , just for the sake of treating all moral views equally . Reply : Again , this is a mischaracterisation of my position . I can not see how anyone reading my Declaration impartially , and taking my words at face value , could ever conclude that my view is that I allow ' everyone to object to everything merely on the basis of their personal moral views ' . Like the authors , I see this as a recipe for anarchy . Boundaries have to be set , as they are for all civil rights . One might as well say , ' we can not allow everyone to say anything merely based on their personal views ' , or ' we can not allow everyone to join whatever organisation they like ' . Freedom of speech and of assembly need boundaries and have them in every liberal society that has ever existed . The same should apply to freedom of conscience . Moreover , every person is free to disapprove of anyone else 's associations , or speech , or conscientious objections . In that sense , we can not and do not treat all moral views equally . The law of a liberal state should not , however , impose a single code of ethical conduct on health care workers ( or any other citizen ) whatever their concerns , as long as those concerns meet the threshold for conscientious objection . It is the threshold that needs to be debated . Once the laws are passed following the appropriate debate , we should abide by the umpire 's decision . Thus , a state may and indeed ought to choose certain systems of morality over others for the purposes of regulating different spheres of public life . Racist systems of morality ought to be excluded from any sphere of public life . Religious systems of morality or secular systems of morality that are at odds with the professional standards of certain legal and socially accepted professions ought to be excluded from such professions . And so on . Reply : To repeat , conscientious objection in health care must meet a reasonableness test . A system of morality that treats some people as inferior merely because of the colour of their skin is one that no reasonable person should agree with . There will , as I have emphasised , always be boundaries and limitations , as with all basic rights . It is not a game , as though what matter is respecting the umpire 's decision . Such an attitude positively opens the way to arbitrary rule , with the state as umpire ' deciding ' and everyone else , including doctors , falling in line no matter what . In any case , the question is precisely what are the standards by which any ' umpiring ' should take place . These standards , I submit , should change . In particular , the liberal , democratic state may not dictate that a secular , i.e. non-religious , system of morality trumps the rights of religious believers , or that one particular moral system trumps the rights of those with sincere , deeply held conscientious objections to some of its principles or requirements . OUR REPLY : Again , this is question-begging : it all depends on whether certain things do constitute " rights " of religious believers . We have said that conscientious objection to activities that are consistent with good professional standards of a freely chosen profession is not a right that simply follows from a general principle of ' freedom of conscience ' . Liberal democratic states are secular states , and secular principles trump freedom of religion in many cases , and rightly so . For instance , in most countries Jehovah 's Witnesses can not appeal to their freedom of religion to deny blood transfusions to their children : in a secular society , the best interest of children , which is a secular value , trumps religious freedom , and rightly so . Since , luckily , we live in secular societies , professional standards of good practice should be informed by secular values , and this does not violate any right to religious freedom . Reply : I have never thought of the best interests of children as being a uniquely secular value . I have always assumed it to be at the core of all religions . It does not , however , entail that one be allowed , for example , to commit a murder to save a child , or torture an innocent person to save a child . Even the best interests of children are qualified . That said , without going into the details of why Jehovah 's Witnesses believe what they do about blood transfusions , it seems on the face of it unreasonable . In other words , for conscientious objection to work in the face of severe disagreement between the relevant parties , there must be room for reasonable disagreement , within a statutory and judicial framework , over whether an objection can be maintained . So it is not part of my position ( though other defenders of medical conscience may disagree ) that any objection based on one 's religion or ethical code will ipso facto pass the test . To take another example , it is an integral part of my position that a conscientious objector can not object to cooperation with an act they deem to violate their principles if their cooperation is sufficiently remote and non-implicating . I have argued for this at length in various places . I also do not allow mere disgust or distaste , no matter how prevalent such an attitude to a particular practice may be among a religious group , to be sufficient . Nor would a mere personal interpretation of one 's religious or ethical code be sufficient . There has to be some objective standard whereby a judge could conclude that it was the teaching of one 's religion , or of one 's ethical code ( pacifism , for example ) that a certain kind of action was wrong . Expert witness evidence would need to be taken in some cases , assuming the case had to go to a court or tribunal . This is all consistent with a presumption in favour of conscience . It is not as though the objector should immediately be on the ' back foot ' , having to justify themselves before the state or their professional body . Procedures need to be in place whereby an apparently sincere and reasonable objection is taken seriously and acted on if there is no obvious or significant concern about any patient 's immediate well being . Only if there is a challenge should the objection be formally tested in a court or tribunal . The right to practice one 's religion implies freedom to believe and to practice that religion in one 's own life , but not to impose those religious values on others in professional roles . It implies the freedom to choose from a reasonable range of jobs and professions ; it does not imply the freedom to choose any job or profession and modify it as one sees fit . Reply : No defender of conscientious objection is suggesting that anyone be allowed to ' impose ' anything on anyone else . On the contrary , by denying conscientious objection , critics such as Giubilini and Savulescu want to impose their own morality and beliefs on practitioners for whom the relevant activities are contrary to their sincerely and deeply held religious and/or ethical principles . They wish to compel others to act in matters contrary to conscience . Objectors merely wish not to be involved . As for the ' freedom to choose from a reasonable range of jobs and professions ' , this is simply to relegate religious belief and practice to second-class status in a liberal society -- the sort of virtual persecution one sees in professedly secular states such as China . Perhaps , given the anti-religious bent presupposed by such an attitude , critics of medical conscience really would like liberal states to become professedly secular , where religion was at best tolerated as a manageable irritation . I do not see this as a desirable direction in which to move . The law does not require people to participate in practice they consider morally objectionable . The law does not require a person to become a GP and prescribe contraceptives . One is totally free not to become a GP . Thus , we could grant conscientious objection to those already in professions which at some point change their professional standards , but there is no reason to admit people into professions requiring practices they do not wish to perform . This does not violate any fundamental freedom and it is necessary for social coordination . Reply : Once again , the ' no one forced you to become a doctor ' response begs the very question at issue : what should the standards of the profession be ? Should conscientious objection be allowed in the first place ? Giubilini and Savulescu accuse me of pandering to moral relativism -- a false allegation -- yet how evidently relativistic is the idea that we should simply take the professional standards in medicine for what they are , with no further criticism ? Now perhaps they are not making such a sweeping claim . Perhaps their claim is that , to the extent that the standards do not allow conscientious objection , they should be taken at face value . But this would be mere cherry-picking : accept the standards as binding when they suit your case , otherwise -- if , say , they disallowed a practice that the critics supported -- subject them to a critique . Furthermore , what are the standards ? When it comes to the rights of conscience , the guidelines of the General Medical Council and of the Royal College of General Practitioners are on the face of it more liberal than those of the British Medical Association and of the Nursing and Midwifery Council . It will be rare to find a single consensus on health care standards , especially when it comes to the very issues that defenders of conscience have in mind -- where moral views diverge , sometimes heatedly but often quite reasonably . The appeal to standards is not as persuasive as Giubilini and Savulescu think it is . Freedom of conscience and religion in a liberal society does not entail that ' anything goes ' . A health care worker should not be able to find shelter under freedom of conscience and religion merely by claiming it . For the protection to apply , a person must have a deeply held , sincere adherence to a tenet or doctrine of their code of ethics or religion that forbids -- expressly or by necessary implication -- the kind of act to which they object . OUR REPLY : This point is undermined by what we have said above . It proceeds from the assumption that there is a right to freedom of conscience in the fulfilment of one 's professional duties . This still requires justification . In any case , it would be almost impossible in practice to assess whether one 's objection is based on sincere and deeply held beliefs or is just a matter of opportunism ( e.g. the desire to avoid unpleasant activities or , say , to please a Catholic director of a hospital so as to further one 's career ) . Reply : I do not understand the scepticism . Should we be similarly dismissive of hopes for reasonable assessment of cases when it comes to free speech or freedom of assembly ? There will always be hard cases , but hard cases , as they saying goes , make bad law . Courts are generally pretty good at weeding out vexatious litigants , insincere or lying claimants , false witnesses , and so on . They are not perfect , but they are the best we have . To decline to apply normal judicial procedure to conscience cases is , again , to cherry-pick . Moreover , the relevant religious or ethical code must be one that has current or historic popular acceptance across some significant portion of the society in which the conscientious objector resides , or in some other society where the code is readily identifiable . OUR REPLY : This point is , from an ethical standpoint , completely arbitrary and discriminatory towards those who do not subscribe to any religion or that belong to minority moral groups , or who have moral views that others do not share . Reply : Where is any of this in that clause ? On the contrary , I explicitly say ' religious or ethical ' , and have repeatedly stressed that those who do not ' subscribe to any religion ' are equally within the scope of the Declaration . Nor have I said anything about ' minority moral groups ' or ' views that others do not share ' . All I am proposing is that there has to be some general code or other , which might not be particularly detailed or widespread . The entire point of this clause is not to promote arbitrariness but to minimise it , by excluding claims to conscience that consist of no more than ' I do n't like X ' or ' I do n't want to do X ' or even ' I think X is wrong ' . The claimant has to do more than that to make out a reasonable case . Conscience is a reflective faculty for discerning right and wrong . It is not mere intuition or feeling . It need n't be deeply analytical ; you do n't have to be a professional ethicist to avail yourself of conscience rights in the public square . But you need to have some sort of reasoned position that you can at least articulate in outline : ' I am a pacifist , and therefore do not believe in taking life ' , ' I am an Evangelical Christian and am opposed to abortion ' , ' I am against extreme body modification because my faith teaches me that self-mutilation is sinful ' , or some such . And this can not be an idiosyncratic interpretation of one 's code . There has to be some objective standard whereby a tribunal could determine that a certain activity , either expressly or by necessary implication , was forbidden . A claimant does not need a papal ex cathedra statement or equivalent . If a significant portion of the rabbinate from one 's Jewish denomination all said the same thing , or if the same principle was expressed in numerous writings on pacifism , or Lutheranism , or Buddhism , and so on -- that would , in my view , be sufficient to make out the case . Why should it matter how many people share my own moral views for my right to freedom of conscience ? We can not privilege certain religious or ethical views in defining individual rights to freedom of conscience just because those views happen to be popular or have historically been predominant ( often thanks to very objectionable strategies and relations of power ) . Historically , slavery , racism and sexism were supported by large sections of society but these should not serve as a basis for ethical practice . Reply : By ' popular ' I do not mean majority or predominant . All I mean is that in the objector 's own society , or in some society that reflects the views of the objector in some significant , relatively identifiable way , one can identify teachings from which the objector derives their objection . Otherwise the way to arbitrary and ungrounded objections is straight and wide . The popularity of a certain ethical or religious code is normally not taken to be as a valid criterion for the definition of a right to freedom of conscience . As seen above , many Muslim doctors would like to be able to object to medically inspecting people intoxicated by recreational drugs or of the opposite sex ; this is unacceptable , but according to this standard , this is not different from a Catholic doctor who does n't want to perform an abortion , since in both cases the religious code is one that has current popular acceptance across a significant portion of some society . Reply : Exactly . These both seem to me to be paradigm cases of CO where identifiable teaching is available . Again , by ' popular ' I am not suggesting it is a ' numbers game ' . Freedom of conscience applies as much to Amish or Baha'i as to Catholics or Muslims in a liberal and pluralistic society . And the same applies , for instance , to the creationist teacher who would like to be able to object to teaching evolution , or to the vegetarian waitress who would like to be able to object to serve meat . Vegetarians account for about 10% of the population in Europe , where vegetarianism can be considered a lifestyle choice rather than a necessity : undoubtedly , this makes vegetarianism an ethical code with popular acceptance across a significant portion of society . Still -- to remain within the medical context -- a vegetarian pharmacist should not be allowed to deny patients medications using animal products based on her own particular values . Reply : As for the ' creationist ' teacher , I reserve judgment given that my focus is health care . As to the vegetarian pharmacist , I do n't see why they should not receive an accommodation in such a case . The strong presumption in favour of conscientious objection would be rebutted if it could be shown that the act or practice in question were such that no reasonable person could object to its performance in the particular health care circumstances at hand . OUR REPLY : This point does not add anything because the concept of ' reasonable ' here deployed is very unclear , as is in general in the academic debate on conscientious objection ( see e.g. Marsh 2014 ) . Oderberg is trying to connect the debate on conscientious objection to the debate about toleration of different comprehensive doctrines in a context of reasonable disagreement , but this does not take us very far . First of all , there is a general problem about whether , by any standard of ' reasonableness ' , it is reasonable to allow any person to object to any professional obligation as long as the objection is taken to be reasonable ( and sincerely held , and having currency among a large portion of society ) : that reasonable objections within a freely chosen profession should be accommodated might itself not be a reasonable principle ; toleration of reasonable views does not need to go that far . Reply : The authors restate their opposition to the reasonableness of allowing objections to professional obligations . I repeat my disagreement with them . I also repeat my charge that at the risk of begging the question , the authors can not put aside the concern as to just what those professional objections are and should be . I want to see a debate about this at the highest levels -- by parliament , the major medical bodies , and via litigation . It is a scandal that the major civil rights , including freedom of conscience and for that matter freedom of speech , entrenched for decades in international law , have barely been tested in the UK legal system . To digress slightly , the ' witch scare ' over so-called ' hate speech ' , which virtually amounts to ' thought crimes ' , has not been met by systematic parliamentary and judicial analysis so as to delimit the very boundaries of what is legal . I submit that the heated debate over conscience in medicine is in desperate need of a proper legislative and judicial framework , with politicians and judges exercising their minds over just what the scope of conscientious objection ought to be , given the foundational status of freedom of conscience in the many international instruments to which the UK is a party . Secondly , and importantly , even if we accept that principle , what is ' reasonable ' ? In one broad sense of ' reasonable ' , you can find at least one reasonable person who would object to pretty much any activity that falls within professional standards and expectations : abortion , vaccination , antibiotic prescription , inspecting patients intoxicated by recreational drugs , and so on . Appealing to the idea of reasonable disagreement to settle conflicts about different comprehensive doctrines is quite common in political philosophy , most notably in John Rawls ' Political Liberalism , and in the debate on CO as well ( see eg Card 2007 and 2014 ) , but it is very unclear what ' reasonable ' means . The fact that John Rawls himself was reluctant to provide a definition of ' reasonable ' and more often relied on what he took to be an intuitive sense of the term is quite telling of how fishy the concept is . Reply : I take all of these points , and do not pretend for a minute that reasonableness gives you a decision procedure for working out which conscientious objections to accommodate . I am completely ' up front ' in my view that , given the lack of a superior alternative , we have to hand contested conscience cases over to the courts or to specialist tribunals . But first we need a statutory framework , and we do n't even have that . In my book Opting Out I propose the following key clause in any putative Rights of Conscience in Health Care Act : ' no individual , whether through their own agency or the agency of a corporation or other legally recognised body , shall be required to provide , participate in , cooperate with , or refer for , any goods or services of a health-care-related nature contrary to that individual 's conscientious beliefs , religious beliefs or moral convictions ' . Consider also Illinois ' Health Care Right of Conscience Act , section 4 : ' No physician or health care personnel shall be civilly or criminally liable to any person , estate , public or private entity or public official by reason of his or her refusal to perform , assist , counsel , suggest , recommend , refer or participate in any way in any particular form of health care service which is contrary to the conscience of such physician or health care personnel . ' As for that catch-all term ' reasonable ' , the simple fact is that common law is replete with ' terms of art ' such as ' negligent ' , ' cause ' , ' foreseeable ' , ' reasonable ' , and the like . What the law calls ' reasonableness tests ' are found everywhere . Rarely if ever do legislators try to define such terms , partly because they are so broad and generic that any definition would , for legal purposes , be itself so wide in scope as to be of little practical use . In addition , the breadth of the terms means that they crop up all over the common law , in just about any kind of tort case you could think of , as well as contract , property , and other areas . Their wide applicability means that a huge range of types of factual situation can be relevant to how those terms are applied , and it is hard to tell in advance how a given term might be employed in a particular case . So , in their wisdom , parliaments leave it to judges to give flesh to the bare bones of these very general legal concepts . If we were to eliminate all ' reasonableness tests ' from the law , the legal system would collapse . I am happy for the ' reasonableness ' buck to stop with the courts . In any case , we do not even need to go as far as to define reasonability to make our point . What we want -- and we assume Oderberg also would want -- is to apply the concept of ' reasonable ' consistently even we assumed that reasonable objections should be accommodated . For instance , we could stipulate that a reasonable moral or religious comprehensive doctrine is one that does not involve any unjust discrimination and that is consistent with a certain degree of liberty of other people ( so , for instance moral views that imply some form of sexism or racism are not reasonable and therefore should not be tolerated in liberal societies ) . But if we accept this broad understanding and we want to apply it consistently , why should we think that conscientious objection to , say , abortion , or contraceptives , or euthanasia , on the basis of religious or ethical reasons is more reasonable than conscientious objection to , say , prescription of antibiotics or vaccination or to medically inspecting patients intoxicated by recreational drugs ? If the former is reasonable , then the latter are as well ; and if the latter are n't , then religious or moral opposition to abortion is not reasonable either . But if we are not prepared to allow the latter examples of conscientious objection , why should we allow CO to euthanasia based , say , on the religious beliefs that a our body and our life are not our property but God 's ? Unless we resolve these substantial ethical issues , the appeal to the concept of ' reasonable ' does not seem to take us very far in a justification of conscientious objection in health care . Other conceptions of ' reasonable ' might be provided , but the burden is on the proponents to show that they allow to pick out just those few cases of conscientious objection that they think should be granted ( and not , say , conscientious objection to providing vaccination ) . Reply : The authors now seem to be more concerned with the mechanics of reasonable accommodations that with the principle . I agree that there is plenty of work to be done here , both in health care and beyond . Baroness Hale , President of the Supreme Court , has used the very language of ' reasonable accommodation ' to express her own concerns that a ' fair balance ' has yet to be struck between competing individual rights , and also between individual rights and those of the community . It was she who gave the Court 's judgment in the Doogan case that the midwives had no protection from being required to carry out various abortion-related actions that violated their religious and ethical beliefs . In her view , a general ' conscience clause ' may well be needed to achieve the right balance , the implication being that this applies within and beyond health care . What the UK needs is what it has not yet had -- a royal commission of inquiry into the state of freedom of conscience in medicine , a Law Reform Commission investigation , and/or serious debate within Parliament and among the major medical bodies . Baroness O'Loan 's Conscientious Objection ( Medical Activities ) Bill was the subject of some spirited debate in the Lords earlier in 2018 , but is now stuck in Report Stage , with no indication of revival . The vigorous objections raised by some Peers , identical to those raised by Giubilini and Savulescu , were equally vigorously rebutted by the bill 's supporters . The situation has not advanced since then . I do not pretend to have a magic formula that will enable anyone to ' pick out just those few cases of conscientious objection that they think should be granted ( and not , say , conscientious objection to providing vaccination ) ' . I also have no formula that neatly delimits the boundaries of freedom of religion in general , freedom of speech , freedom of the media , or freedom of assembly . It is bordering on hypocritical to set a higher standard for freedom of conscience . There might be substantial moral differences between euthanasia and providing antibiotics or vaccines , but if so , what we need to address is precisely such substantial moral issues . If people think that abortion is morally impermissible , then they should campaign to have it excluded from the domain of what constitutes good medical practice , trying to persuade people on the basis of public reason , and for consistency 's sake they should not take on professions whose recognized standards conflict with their own personal moral standard . If they succeed at showing , through public reason , that abortion is unethical , then the proper policy solution would not be that of allowing abortion and also allowing conscientious objection to abortion -- which would presuppose a relativistic moral framework ( Giubilini 2014 ) -- but to exclude abortion from the proper scope of medical profession . Thus , as we have argued ( Giubilini 2017 , Savulescu 2006 ) , we should stop focussing on the value of conscience and of freedom of conscience and shift our attention to substantial moral issues to determine what exactly should and should not fall within the proper scope of medicine ( or indeed of any other profession ) Reply : I agree completely that opponents of abortion should campaign to have it banned or heavily restricted , opponents of euthanasia should also campaign , as well as critics of human embryo research , and of whichever treatment or procedure one happens to oppose . Opponents do campaign . But this is a distinct issue . It must not be confused with the conscience issue . To say that ' for consistency 's sake they should not take on professions whose recognized standards conflict with their own personal moral standard ' seems to me bizarre . How is it inconsistent both to oppose procedure X and to campaign for a reasonable accommodation or opt-out where X is legal ? If anything , the two positions go hand in hand . Conscience cases of recent concern nearly all involve beginning and end-of-life activities such as contraception and sterilisation , abortion , assisted suicide , and euthanasia . Reasonable people have serious disagreements over the legitimacy of some or all of these practices , and over whether participation in such activities should be compelled by law . OUR REPLY : Reasonable people have disagreement also about practices that do not allow conscientious objection , such as vaccination , at least if we take ' reasonable ' to mean something like " not discriminatory and consistent with other people 's freedoms " , and not something like ' rational ' or ' informed by evidence ' ( given that religion-based objections are not informed by evidence either ) . Reply : I do not mean either of these things . By ' reasonable disagreement ' all I mean is that a reasonable case can be made out for the impermissibility of the procedure in dispute . But the case , to be a genuine conscience case , has to be grounded in some body of teaching , religious or non-religious . The relevant principles should not be beyond all scrutiny , but there should be a presumption in their favour where the teaching has significant adherence in the way specified earlier . One might add the desirability of an overlap between more than one body of teaching , where procedure X is considered wrong in body of teaching B1 and in B2 and maybe in more . This would add to the case in favour of reasonableness . In Italy some doctors have been expelled from the national association of medical doctors because of their opposition to vaccines . Vaccination is consistent with recognized professional standards as is abortion , so it is not clear why objecting to vaccination should imply expulsion from the profession and objecting to abortion should constitute a human right . Reply : I am happy to thrash out the vaccination vs. abortion debate in a separate post as it would take us too far afield to discuss it here . All I will say is that it might well depend on what the opposition to vaccination consists in -- all vaccination ? Vaccination of children with immature immune systems ? Compulsory vaccination ? I do n't have a settled view on conscience in vaccinations , but I am glad the authors are thinking about it . This is just the sort of public debate we need to have ! That notwithstanding , it is abundantly clear that freedom of conscience and religion should not be thought of solely , or even primarily , in terms of the practices that happen to be the flashpoints of current controversies . OUR REPLY : Yes , we agree : if freedom of conscience justifies conscientious objection to abortion or euthanasia , it also justifies conscientious objection to many other practices that are not flashpoints of current controversies , such as IVF . However , for what we have said above , we take this to be a reductio ad absurdum : since we can not accept that conscientious objection should be justified in cases such IVF or vaccination , we can not accept the premise that a principle of freedom of conscience justifies conscientious objection to abortion or euthanasia where these practices are taken to be consistent with professional standards . Reply : As philosophers like to say , one man 's modus ponens is another man 's modus tollens . The authors are worried that legal protection of conscience will lead to a rash of opt-outs , so they oppose it altogether . My view is that cases where the claim to an opt-out is very strong may well imply less obvious opt-outs that are perhaps not as strong but still sufficiently persuasive to require protection . There is no reason to think that parliament or the courts would set up a framework that allowed any and all opt-outs to whatever health care procedure or service was objected to . On the contrary , I would expect any statutory and judicial framework to be pretty tight -- not so tight as to shift the entire burden of proof onto the objector , but tight enough to make opt-outs relatively difficult to get without making out a decent case on a balance of probabilities . Even if one disagreed with conscientious objection to some or all of the practices listed above , one should be concerned that controversies will soon also arise , as they are already beginning to , in cases such as : transgender surgery ; extreme cosmetic surgery ; various forms of artificial reproduction ; cloning ; gene editing and other forms of genetic engineering ; cognitive enhancement ; performance-enhancing drugs in sport and other areas ; creation of chimeras ; and much more . OUR REPLY : Yes , and we agree that it might be difficult to determine whether some of them should or should not be considered consistent with good medical practice and included among professional obligations . But for what we have said above , the debate should happen at this level , not at the level of alleged rights to conscientious objection , given that the latter would be open to all the problems we have raised so far . Patients should not be held hostage to the values of an individual doctor , especially when that doctor has a monopoly power over the patient 's health or life . Reply : The debate needs to be had at all levels , including over professional standards as to the procedures themselves and standards as to the scope of professional obligations . We need parliament involved , and the courts , and think tanks , and the major professional bodies . Otherwise we will sleepwalk into a doctor 's nightmare , where professional and moral integrity is lost to the coercive power of the state . At the very least , many competent , skilled , good-willed members of the profession will find themselves marginalised and hounded out of their chosen careers , just as happened to the midwives Doogan and Wood . This can not be tolerated in a liberal and pluralistic society . We will continue to see the list of controversial practices and activities increase at speed due to advances in biotechnology . If now is not the time to come out in strong support of freedom of conscience and religion in health care , we do not know when is . OUR REPLY : We think this is not the time to come out in support of conscientious objection . This is the time to discuss whether and which of these new controversial practices should be part of the proper scope of medicine , and in what circumstances , in a rational , informed public discourse . Reply : If that is the correct view , it follows logically that it will never be the time to come out in support of conscientious objection . For there will always be new developments in medicine to debate , and they will only increase in number , which means increasing levels of controversy over their use . Now , I submit , is the best time to have the public debate we desperately need , and to get a legal framework in place . Even if you feel sanguine about the controversies either actual or on the immediate horizon , you should be seriously concerned about what is over that horizon . If you are not prepared to make a stand now , whatever your opinion about this or that particular issue , then when the time comes that your own individual conscience is under threat , it will probably be too late . Who will be there , at that time , to come to your aid ? OUR REPLY : Reasoning ethically implies adopting an impartial , disinterested perspective . Whether conscientious objection in health care should be allowed is an ethical issue and , as such , should be discussed from an impartial point of view . The conclusion we reach should be valid regardless of who it is whose conscience will be under threat . If it was our conscience to be ' under threat ' in the same way in which Oderberg thinks that the conscience of doctors required to perform abortions is ' under threat ' , we would still say that the ethical thing to do would be for us , or for anyone else , to choose a different profession . Reply : I agree that we must be impartial and disinterested . This is the very tenor of my case for conscientious objection . With a legal framework in place , no doubt I myself will disagree with some of the opt-outs handed down by the courts or tribunals . But this is a price well worth paying to protect one of our fundamental freedoms . I do not want to see doctors forced to choose between their consciences and their careers , especially given the amount of public service they would continue to do were their consciences accommodated . Refusal to accommodate a basic civil right , with the consequent loss to public health , would give us the worst of all worlds . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'get out of doing something' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund, not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

I am grateful to Prof. Savulescu and Dr Giubilini for taking the time and care to respond in detail to my Declaration in Support of Conscientious Objection in Health Care . I also thank Prof. Savulescu for giving me the opportunity to reply to their lengthy analysis . The authors make a series of important criticisms and observations , all of which I will face directly . The topic of freedom of conscience in medicine is both contentious and likely to become increasingly urgent in the future , so it is as well to dispel misunderstandings , clarify assertions and respond to objections as thoroughly as possible . That said , I hope I do not try the reader 's patience by discussing Giubilini and Savulescu 's objections point by point , in the order in which they raise them . Conscientious objection in health care -- that is , healthcare practitioners objecting to performing certain legal , safe , and beneficial medical procedures ( e.g. abortion ) that a patient requests by appealing to their personal moral values -- is one of the most debated topics in medical ethics at present time . Reply : I object to this way of characterising conscientious objection ( CO ) . ( i ) CO encompasses more than procedures : it includes all manner of health-care services and treatments . ( ii ) Whether a given treatment ( procedure , service , etc. ) is safe or beneficial is itself precisely what is in dispute in many cases . ( iii ) The term ' personal moral values ' devalues the source of the objection . The conscientious objector believes that a given treatment violates their deeply and sincerely held ethical principles , whether secular or religiously grounded . Although at the moment doctors ' private conscience enjoys a lot of legal protection -- most laws that make abortion legal contain clauses that exempt doctors from performing the procedure if they so wish . Reply : This is false in at least two respects . First , the authors restrict the question of conscience to abortion . Even if most abortion laws around the world come with a conscience clause , this does not amount to ' a lot of legal protection ' for conscience . ( What is the force of ' private ' -- again to devalue the appeal to conscience ? ) I am concerned -- and the Declaration I authored reflects this -- with all aspects of health care . Abortion , I argue is but a flashpoint of the conscience debate for purely historical reasons . As euthanasia prohibitions are relaxed around the world , conscience debates will move in that direction , and then in many other directions as medical technology and its availability continue their rapid advance . Secondly , the authors think that a conscience clause exempting a practitioner from ' performing ' a procedure -- say abortion -- is good enough , whereas defenders of CO are concerned also with protection from being compelled to cooperate with or assist in objected-to procedures , within reason . The sad case of the midwives Doogan and Wood shows why exemption from performance is not enough . We have provided reasons , both in this forum and in our academic work , for why we think that conscientious objection in health care is not morally permissible and should not be allowed in the case of procedures that are legal , safe , beneficial , autonomously requested by patients and , more generally , consistent with the standards of good medical practice ( see e.g. Savulescu 2006 , Savulescu and Schuklenk 2017 , Giubilini 2014 , Giubilini 2017 ) . Some people disagree and advance reasons for the opposite view . Reply : This is a tendentious way of putting the disagreement . If the authors added ' and procedures that in no way violate moral principle to administer ' , I for one would sign up to their formulation . The problem is that conscientious objectors believe that the procedures they object to are not safe , or not beneficial , or if safe and beneficial are otherwise procedures that violate moral principles . The authors make it sound as though we all know or we all agree about what is safe and beneficial ( and otherwise morally permissible ) but that conscientious objectors have a prima facie irrational concern . This is just not the case . One of the scholars who has more clearly and straightforwardly articulated the principles and reasons in support of conscientious objection in health care is Professor Oderberg of Reading University . Prof Oderberg was recently invited to debate the issue with Julian Savulescu at the Masters Course in Practical Ethics run by the Uehiro Centre here at the University of Oxford . On that occasion , Prof Oderberg 's defense of conscientious objection centred around a series of principles and considerations that he very effectively formulated in the 17 main points that constitute his " Declaration in support of conscientious objection in health care " , published on the University of Reading website and which is available for people who agree with him to sign . We believe this declaration should be discussed because it presents in a clear , accessible , and rigorous way the reasons that often underpin positions in favour of conscientious objection in health care , but that are not always so clearly formulated . However , we want to explain why we think that each of the points of the Declaration fails to support the idea of a right to conscientious objection in health care . We are presenting here below each of Prof Oderberg 's points immediately followed by our reply . Freedom of conscience and religion are fundamental rights in any liberal , democratic society professing pluralism and tolerance . OUR REPLY : We agree . Hardly anyone in our Western societies would deny that these are fundamental rights . However , needless to say -- and Professor Oderberg certainly agrees -- these are not absolute rights . There is hardly any absolute moral or legal right . In this case , there can be constraints both with regard to what kind of things a person can do or refrain from doing in the name of their conscience , and with regard to the circumstances in which they can legitimately do or refrain from doing these things . In particular , it remains to be established that a generic right to freedom of conscience entails , logically or ethically , a right to conscientious objection to certain specific activities within a specific profession that a person freely chooses . Reply : On the contrary , freedom of conscience must entail this if it entails anything at all . From freedom of conscience comes the right not to be compelled by the state to act in ways that violate one 's deeply and sincerely held moral and/or religious principles . This basic civil right does not vanish as soon as one freely takes up ' a specific profession ' , any more than freedom of expression or freedom of assembly , for example . To be sure , one 's civil rights become subject to various hedges and qualifications ; we can and should have a deep debate about where the limits lie . But that these basic rights are extinguished because a person chooses a profession ( most of us have to , do n't we ? ) strikes me as implausible and ungrounded . Professional standards and protection of other people 's right to health care , for instance , weigh heavily against extending a right to freedom of conscience into the domain of professional obligations . Individuals are free to choose careers that do not involve activities they morally object to , but if they choose otherwise , they should take on the responsibilities that their professional role entails . People can have their conscience , and eat it too . Just not in professions that require them to do what their conscience proscribes . Reply : The ' free choice ' argument enunciated here is probably the most common one against medical conscience rights . Repetition does not , however , make an argument sound . What is the import of the fact that a person freely takes up a profession -- that they become a mere functionary of the state , or of their professional standards body ? Doctors as mere state functionaries is not an idea with a great history behind it . Or do medical professionals become mere personal valets of their patients because they have freely chosen to practise their profession ? Suppose a person were forced to become a doctor ; what difference would that make in the authors ' eyes ? Given that the ' right to health care ' apparently means that conscience rights are expunged ( if they ever existed in the first place ) , why should it matter to the authors whether ' legal , safe , beneficial , autonomously requested ' care is provided by a doctor who is dragooned rather than a volunteer ? Freely choosing a profession does not entail that you ' sign up ' to every requirement laid down by that profession 's current standards , or that you must obey every law governing that profession no matter how unjust you believe it to be . To think otherwise is to concoct a veritable recipe for professional corruption . Suppose I freely join the legal profession . I then discover that the way to success , advancement , promotion to partner , the esteem of my colleagues , is to construct massive tax avoidance schemes that , while within the letter of the law , totally break its spirit and result in major unfairness . Must I go along with all of this because I freely chose to be a lawyer , because I voluntarily signed up to the rules of the game ? No , I should be legally permitted to resist such involvement without fear of discrimination , demotion , or lack of advancement ; and I certainly should not be barred from entering the profession in the first place . Why is health care any different ? In other professions , and for many activities within the medical profession , professionals are not allowed to simply follow their conscience and ignore good professional standards . For example , they are not and should not be allowed to refuse to prescribe antibiotics , administer vaccines , deny blood transfusions , and so on . A general principle of freedom of conscience does not justify these objections . Reply : I have never said otherwise . On the contrary , where there can be no reasonable disagreement that administering a certain treatment is safe , beneficial , and no threat to the professional or moral integrity of the practitioner , there should be no right to conscientious objection . It is not about ' simply following conscience ' or ' ignoring good professional standards ' . I am all in favour of good standards and not treating one 's conscience as a kind of excuse to get out of doing something one does not like . The appeal to conscience is a serious affair , never to be taken lightly . A legal and regulatory framework is needed that protects the right but also enables adjudication of particular cases . As far as I am concerned , for the most part the common sense and skilful judgment found in our courts is the mechanism by which the assessment of a conscientious objection as reasonable or unreasonable should be carried out . Article 18 of the U.N . ' s Universal Declaration of Human Rights proclaims : ' Everyone has the right to freedom of thought , conscience and religion ; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief , and freedom , either alone or in community with others and in public or private , to manifest his religion or belief in teaching , practice , worship and observance . ' The words of Article 18 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights , and of Article 9 of the European Convention on Human Rights , are almost identical . OUR REPLY : We wholeheartedly agree . But to the extent that these codes are inspired by the principle stated at point 1 above -- as indeed they are -- they are subject to the same considerations : the rights mentioned are not absolute ones and it remains to be established that they entail a right to conscientious objection to certain specific activities within a freely chosen profession . Reply : I have already addressed the entailment between the general right and the specific right , but I would add that the civil rights of an individual are not lost merely because one joins a group with its own set of rules of conduct , although the rights may well be qualified . For example , a doctor 's civil right to free speech does not mean she can say whatever she likes to a patient about their situation ; there are rules of professional courtesy , discretion , and so on . The idea that civil rights are somehow extinguished or superseded by dint of membership of a professional body , however , can not be accepted . If Giubilini and Savulescu 's reasoning were correct , then one must deny freedom of conscience to individuals as citizens as well , since although most people do not ' sign up ' to be citizens , they are always free to emigrate , just as a doctor is free to leave the medical profession ! Or maybe we should just deny freedom of conscience to immigrants , because they chose to come to their new country in the first place . Just as one does not have to become a doctor , one does not have to immigrate either . Such consequences of Giubilini and Savulescu 's position are absurd . If they are right , one might as well tear up the U.N . Declaration and every convention that repeats its endorsement of freedom of conscience . Both sides of this debate accept that when you join a professional body , you sign up to certain rules . These rules can qualify a person 's civil rights , often significantly . The question in dispute , however , is what . What , exactly , does a health care professional sign up to ? In my view , and that of the supporters of medical conscience rights , he does not sign up to being compelled to violate his sincerely and deeply held moral principles just because the state says so , or the rules of the professional body in question . Moreover , relying on codes is normally not a good way of making ethical arguments : codes can always be dropped , adjusted , updated . And they normally refer to general principles whose application to actual cases requires taking other values into account . Reply : There is nothing magical in my use of the word ' code ' . I could as well have said ' system ' , ' body of principles ' , or some such . I appeal to this for important reasons to which I will advert later on . Ethical arguments , like all arguments , depend on systematic reasoning . The application of general principles to specific cases is often subtle and difficult -- a problem for everyone , philosopher or not , defender of conscience or opponent . Yes , people 's principles sometimes change , but what of it ? Should we deny freedom of religion to a religious believer because one day they might become an atheist ? Should we deny a person 's freedom to speak their left-wing views because one day they might become a conservative ? In health care , conscience plays an essential role in the professional judgment -- often subtle and delicate -- that practitioners must exercise in their daily work . If health care workers are not to be reduced to mere functionaries ( of the state , of the patient , of the legal system ) , they must be free to exercise their professional judgment and to allow their consciences to inform that judgment . This freedom of professional judgment informed by conscience must translate into the freedom not to be involved in certain activities or practices to which there is a conscientious objection . OUR REPLY : We agree that " conscience plays an essential role in the professional judgment -- often subtle and delicate -- that practitioners must exercise in their daily work . " Indeed medical practitioners , or anyone , must not be reduced to " mere functionaries " . However , one of us has argued that this role is fulfilled by doctors forming all things considered value judgements about what patients should do , and engaging patients in a free and equal dialogue about these ( Savulescu 1995 , Savulescu 1997 ) : if at the end of such a dialogue , where the doctor treats the patient as an equal whose moral view is deserving of respect , the patient opts for a course of action that is legal and within the scope of the doctor 's practice , and consistent with distributive justice , then the doctor should provide it , even if she disagrees ethically . That is what it is to be a professional . Reply : This description of the doctor-patient relationship does not represent a ' free and equal ' exchange . On the contrary , according to the authors , dialogue must be followed by the doctor 's doing just what the patient asks , even if ( I presume ) the patient can get the legal procedure or service they want in a timely and effective manner from some other doctor who does not have a conscientious objection to providing it . For all the high-minded talk of equality and respect , this a relationship of employer to functionary . What about the doctor 's moral view : is it too deserving of respect ? How is that respect supposed to be manifested , according to Giubilini and Savulescu ? This is not about mere ethical disagreement . It is about professional and personal integrity . But it could be argued that even this position gives too much power to the doctor and his or her conscience , at least according to certain understandings of conscience . Indeed , that one 's professional judgments require one to consult one 's conscience ( e.g. Sulmasy 2017 ) is a problematic statement , because a lot depends on what one means by ' conscience ' . On some understandings of conscience , the statement is plainly false . Philosophically , the concept of ' conscience ' has a variety of meanings and a complex history ( one of us has provided an account here ) . Not all of them have relevance for professional judgments . For instance , in the Christian tradition ' conscience ' is sometimes understood as the ( imperfect ) faculty through which we discover the law of God within our heart . Generally speaking , the voice of God is not essential to professional judgments -- unless you are a minister of a Church -- because what is good and bad professional judgement can not be determined by religion . In the case of medicine , doctors and patients might have different religious views , and religious prescriptions can differ from commonly accepted standards of good medical practice ( McConnell 2018 ) . Reply : I agree -- doctors and patients might have different religious views , and thereby different ethical views about the right thing to do . Or one might be a religious believer and the other not , or perhaps neither will be religious believers . They will still have ethical views , will they not ? In which case disagreements can arise and this is precisely why freedom of conscience for the medical professional must be legally recognised , so that they are not compelled by the patient , the state , or their professional body , to act in ways they sincerely consider to be a serious violation of deeply held moral principles . Everyone has their ' red lines ' . Doctors are no exception . Nonetheless , we remain " agnostic " as to whether religious values should enter the doctor-patient relationship . Provided the doctor is willing to express but not enforce his or her values , and respect the patient 's own values , such value pluralism is a justifiable part of liberal society . Reply : The conscience debate is not essentially about the place of religious belief in the doctor-patient relationship . True , many recent disputes have involved conscientious objections deriving from religious belief , but such a dispute need have no religious basis whatsoever . I and those who agree with me often speak interchangeably of freedom of religion and freedom of conscience , with one doing duty for the other even though freedom of conscience includes , but is not co-extensive with , aspects of freedom of religion . Freedom of conscience and religion as an overarching freedom is spoken about often , as by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms , the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights , the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights , among many other treaties , conventions , and legal judgments . In short , it is highly misleading to frame the medical conscience debate as one about the place of religion in medicine . It is also a misrepresentation of the debate to talk about a doctor 's ' enforcing their values ' on anyone . As long as the patient has full and fair access to all legally available treatments and services , where is the enforcement ? The right to legal treatment does not entail the right to obtain it from any particular person . The rights of religion and conscience are , however , not absolute . Article 29 of the U.N . Declaration ( with similar provisions elsewhere ) states : ' In the exercise of his rights and freedoms , everyone shall be subject only to such limitations as are determined by law solely for the purpose of securing due recognition and respect for the rights and freedoms of others and of meeting the just requirements of morality , public order and the general welfare in a democratic society . ' OUR REPLY : We agree on this principle . However , this formulation is quite vague .. For what exactly are the " just requirements of morality " against freedom of conscience ? A moral obligation to act according to the professional standards of one 's chosen profession might count as a just requirement of morality against a claim to freedom of conscience . If it did n't , then many professions would turn into mere anarchy . Reply : I do not suggest for a moment that international conventions and declarations are sufficiently precise to guide the law in liberal societies without plenty of further work . I take them to be no more than highly important frameworks for basic rights in such societies . ( I leave aside societies without a liberal framework , where the debate over rights would involve a host of other issues . ) True , the formulations are vague in some respects , as is every statute ever enacted and every legal judgment handed down by a court . We can say the same about freedom of speech , of the press , of assembly , freedom from torture , slavery , and all other basic rights . Why single out freedom of conscience ? More importantly , the persistent appeal to ' professional standards ' strikes me as potentially question-begging . After all , what if the standards included the right to conscientious objection ? The British Medical Association 's own handbook of ethics and law , Medical Ethics Today ( 3rd edition , 2012 , p.33 ) states : ' Doctors have rights to their own moral views and can opt out of some lawful procedures , if this would not endanger patients . ' Read in the context of other remarks by the BMA , this right to opt out seems limited only to abortion , fertility treatment , and some end-of-life decisions . ( By contrast , the view of the General Medical Council appears more liberal . ) Although I disagree with the precise formulation and the BMA 's interpretation of the situation , my point is that appealing to professional standards threatens to beg the very question of whether CO should be part of those standards in the first place . Standards are a good indicator of general thinking by medical professionals about the nature of their job , but they can not take the place of an argument . An ethical vegetarian waitress might want to be exempted from serving meat without losing her job ; as a matter of fact , a significant proportion of Muslim medical students want to be exempted from medically inspecting patients of the opposite sex ( 36% ) or intoxicated with recreational drugs ( 18.5% ) , in the name of their freedom of conscience ( Strickland 2012 ) . Reply : Intuitions may differ , but none of this strikes me as particularly problematic . Fortunately for the vegetarian waitress , a thriving private market in restaurants means she can find the perfect establishment to work in . Unfortunately for the health care worker who is employed by a socialist medical system such as we have in the UK , the choice of where to work is a much more serious problem . When assessed against professional standards and expectations , these types of objections are all equivalent : there is no reason to think that some ( say , religious conscientious objection to abortion ) have a stronger claim than others ( say , conscientious objection to serving meat ) . Reply : Perhaps , but my concern is health care and the integrity of the medical profession . It is important to note that the ' just requirements of morality ' are not confined to respecting other people 's rights and liberties . It might still be wrong to fail to comply with professional standards and expectations even if other people 's rights are not violated ( for instance because a woman to whom a doctor denies an abortion can easily get the same medical service elsewhere , or because a customer to whom a waitress denies a meat dish can get it from another waiter ) . Reply : It may be wrong to fail to comply in this way but it can never be merely because a person is acting on their own right conscientiously to object . As I say in my Declaration : ' The rights of others ... are not violated merely because they can not be enforced against a person exercising their freedom of conscience and religion -- for otherwise this freedom itself would be meaningless . ' One might appeal , for instance , to a duty of fairness towards one 's employer ( including when the employer is the state ) and towards one 's colleagues , e.g. a duty to perform the same professional activities as any other colleague who works on the same salary . Reply : This strikes me as not very convincing . If fairness to one 's employer means doing whatever one 's employer requires under penalty , irrespective of morality , justice , or integrity , then one truly is a mere functionary -- of the state , if this is one 's employer . If we allow conscience , in some cases , to trump state-imposed obligations even in wartime , how could it be logical to deny it in peacetime ? A similar point applies to fairness in respect of one 's colleagues . Does ' the same professional duties ' mean performing every single kind of activity as a prerequisite for being paid the same ? If so , then millions of employees are being unfair to millions of their colleagues every day of the working week ; this is an implausible result . We concur with the U.N . and other international bodies and conventions that freedom of conscience and religion should not violate the legally recognised rights of others and that the freedom can be limited by the just requirements of morality . This applies both to direct participation in various practices and to assistance or co-operation with them , such as facilitating them by means of referral to another practitioner . OUR REPLY : We agree with this point , with the proviso we made in our response to point 4 about what constitutes a ' just requirement of morality ' . As said , it is not just about protecting other people 's rights . The rights of others , however , are not violated merely because they can not be enforced against a person exercising their freedom of conscience and religion -- for otherwise this freedom itself would be meaningless . OUR REPLY : Nobody is forcing a conscientious objector to enter medicine or to continue in it . Reply : See my earlier remarks , including what I said about freedom to emigrate . This oft-repeated statement is of mere rhetorical force ; it lacks logical force . If conscience is important , one will incur significant costs to protect it . Conscientious objectors to conscription to war were incarcerated or experimented upon . Reply : Many were badly mistreated , to be sure . I have no doubt some were insincere cowards . Not all were . Many others belonged to religious denominations with centuries of pacifist tradition behind them . Thousands took up alternative work , such as medical care for the wounded ( an obvious choice ) , agriculture for the war effort , construction , and so on . Today 's conscientious objectors pay no such costs . A compromise position would be to deny conscientious objectors entry into medical specialties involving their objection ( Savulescu and Schuklenk 2017 ) . The cost would be minimal -- choosing another career or even branch of medicine . But today conscientious objectors want to incur no cost for them imposing burdens on others . Reply : The proposed ' compromise ' seems to me more like a trouncing . Why should conscientious objectors have to avoid an entire specialty because of concerns about one kind of procedure or service within it ? A speciality can of course be so narrow that an objector would not be treated unfairly were they required to avoid that particular speciality -- say transgender surgery or cosmetic surgery purely for enhancement . If they objected to such procedures in general they would not expect the relevant speciality to be open to them . But what about midwifery , or obstetrics and gynaecology , or sports medicine , or neurology ? These are broad specialties with many kinds of procedure and treatment within them . Are we to say that if a neurologist objected to administering transcranial direct current stimulation for the purpose of ( alleged ) cognitive enhancement , they should leave neurology altogether ? Or that an aspiring neurologist should be barred from that discipline because of advance refusal on ethical grounds to carry out such a procedure ? There may be no pressing case involving this particular example at the moment , but my refrain is that it is only a matter of time before conscience issues start troubling large numbers of health care workers across a multitude of disciplines . Freedom of conscience and religion is not an absolute right ; however , in this point 6 of the declaration , neither a duty to abide by standards of good professional practice within a freely chosen profession nor a duty to respect other people 's right to health care are taken to be strong enough to outweigh an alleged right to freedom of conscience and religion in health care provision . Reply : This is not what point 6 of the Declaration says . The point says that a person can not complain that their health care rights are violated merely because a health care worker refuses on conscience grounds to provide what the person wants . Whether health care rights are violated depends on the case at hand . My view , as per point 12 , is that ' the strong presumption in favour of conscientious objection would be rebutted if it could be shown that the act or practice in question were such that no reasonable person could object to its performance in the particular health care circumstances at hand . ' In other words , a putative conscientious objection can be unreasonable . It might also be insincere , or for some other reason not rise to the level of genuine objection on grounds of conscience . In a country like Italy with very high rates of conscientious objection to abortion -- with peaks of 80% in certain regions -- each conscientious objector poses a serious risk to the health of women seeking abortion and to their right to access safe and legal abortion because it is very difficult for a woman to find a doctor willing to perform the abortion ( see e.g Minerva 2015 ) ; Reply : I disagree with this reading of the Italian situation . Exact figures are hard to come by , but from what I can discern , the abortion rate in Italy is about 1% , around 100k per year . It has been steady since 2004 or in slight decline in a country whose population has barely increased in over a decade . The rate is comparable to Spain and Greece , two natural comparators . It does not look on the face of it as though Italian women are having serious trouble getting access to abortion . There has been a decline in the ratio of abortions to live births since 1981 , from about 1/3 to 1/5 , but there are likely to be many factors influencing that , including cultural and religious , and a recognition of Italy 's demographic problems . No doubt conscientious objection plays a part , and I do not mean to suggest that Italian women have no trouble accessing abortion in every region , town , city , in every situation . All I am suggesting , based on the evidence , is that abortion seems pretty easy to get . besides , doctors who are not conscientious objectors are overburdened for having to perform a disproportionate amount of abortions . In Oderberg 's view , these considerations are irrelevant because the alleged right to conscientious objection would trump such considerations . Reply : It is up to the state , or the market , or whichever system regulates health care provision , to ensure that no patient is denied their right to legally available treatment . It is not for conscientious objectors to fix this problem any more than it is the job of an accused exercising his right to remain silent to ensure that the prosecution gets its evidence in some other way , or of a baker who objects to selling a cake with a pro-gay marriage slogan on it to ensure that the customer can obtain their cake from another retailer . So one can not help but wonder what would actually constitute , in Oderberg 's mind , an appropriate constraint on an alleged right to freedom of conscience in health care provision by health care professionals . Absent a valid answer , point 6 implies that this declaration takes freedom of conscience or religion to be absolute rights , which they are not . Reply : Point 12 of the Declaration answers this very question , albeit in a skeleton fashion . I continue to call on the UK and other parliaments , and the courts , to develop a statutory and judicial framework for drawing the appropriate boundary between freedom of medical conscience and the right to safe and legal treatment . Moreover , the ' just requirements of morality ' are precisely what are in dispute in a case of conscientious objection . OUR REPLY : we agree : this is precisely the point we made above in our reply to point 4 . The fact that people disagree about what the just requirements of morality are , however , does not imply that people should be free to stick to their own conscience . We will never get to agree on many substantial ethical issues , but disagreement does not give people a free pass to behave as they like in any sphere of public life , including professional life . Reply : There are two non sequiturs in this paragraph . First , it does not follow from ethical disagreement simpliciter that people should be ' free to stick ' to their own conscience . I have never claimed that people should be ' free to stick ' to their own conscience , as though this was an unqualified , ' come what may ' right . Nor am I deducing freedom of conscience from mere ethical disagreement . Rather , my point is that in a professedly liberal , tolerant , pluralistic , diverse society , there is no single ethical system imposed by the state ; or , rather , there must not be . The state has no right in such a society either to impose an ethical code upon doctors in the state sector , nor by regulation of the private market . Imposing an ethical code means conscience goes out of the window , and doctors become mere functionaries of the state . Secondly , it does not follow from ethical disagreement , and I have never argued , that disagreement gives people a ' free pass to behave as they like ' . That would be crazy . The right to medical conscience must be carefully legislated and regulated , with various hedges built in , and a developing jurisprudence is required to give it consistent and detailed shape over time . Furthermore , in a liberal , democratic society the state may not play favourites by choosing one system of morality to trump all others no matter what objections of conscience are made against it . Conscientious objectors must not be silenced or marginalised merely because of their unwillingness to participate in activities to which they object . OUR REPLY : Choosing one system of morality over others in the regulation of professional requirements is indeed permissible and necessary . We should not let doctors refuse to examine patients of the opposite sex , as 36% of Muslim medical students in the UK would like to be allowed to do ( Strickland 2012 ) , just because their religion or any other value proscribes it . Reply : I ca n't say I find such a refusal particularly problematic . There can certainly be reasonable disagreement over whether examination of a patient by someone of the opposite sex is ethically appropriate . I take no sides ; I just do n't see the problem . The state is not impermissibly ' playing favourites ' if it merely requires professionals to abide by the recognized and socially accepted standards of good professional practice of a freely chosen profession . Reply : It surely is playing favourites , if the state 's standards , or those of the profession , ride roughshod over any dissenting point of view . If I might indulge in ad hominism for a moment : I find it hard to believe the authors would be saying this if the ' recognized and socially accepted standards of good professional practice ' were unabashedly contrary to what the authors believe those standards should be . Freedom of conscience for dissenters would , I surmise , be at the top of their policy agenda . This point 8 relies on the false assumption that all systems of morality are on equal footing for the purpose of any policy making in a secular state : according to this point , as long as there is someone that holds a certain moral or religious view , that moral view should be considered on a par with any other moral view when it comes to deciding what people can and can not do , or else the state would be ' playing favourites ' . Reply : I simply do not say this . I allow that there can unreasonable appeals to conscience . What is reasonable has to be settled by parliament and the courts , with plenty of room for lobbying and argument on all sides . If the appeal is reasonable , no liberal state can play favourites and compel obedience contrary to conscience . This is radical moral relativism and a mistake . Reply : Lest there be any misapprehension , I am no moral relativist . But as far as I am concerned , in a liberal and pluralistic society one seeks to effect changes in the law through the usual means of lobbying and persuasion , and of course the ballot box . One does not do it by trampling on freedom of conscience . This no more implies moral relativism than freedom of speech in a liberal society implies that all things spoken are equally plausible . For many professions , there will be people who disagree ethically with some of its professional standards and requirements . Creationists will disagree with the professional requirement on teachers to teach evolution ; racists will disagree with the professional requirement on doctors to treat patients of different ethnicities equally ; vegetarians will disagree with professional requirements on waiting staff to serve meat ; pro-life people will disagree with professional requirements on certain doctors to perform abortions . Reply : With a properly worked out set of laws and jurisprudence on freedom of conscience , there will be a way of handling all such cases -- not always in a fashion that make all sides happy , but in a way that respects basic rights . In any case , since the topic at hand is health care , it is best to stick with it . As far as abortion is concerned , conscience is protected to some degree in most jurisdictions . In my view it does not go far enough , since cooperation is not taken into account . The authors think this is simply wrong , and I disagree . But appealing to allegedly absurd consequences in other professions does not make their case . They seem to think that no reasonable consensus can be reached on controversial cases , and that parliaments or courts should not even try to develop it . The state would impermissibly play favourites if it excluded people from the public discussion about what represents good professional standard and policy and about changing professional standards and policies . By including people in this discussion and giving voice to their different views , the state discharges its obligation to be impartial . But it can not allow everyone to object to everything merely on the basis of their personal moral views , just for the sake of treating all moral views equally . Reply : Again , this is a mischaracterisation of my position . I can not see how anyone reading my Declaration impartially , and taking my words at face value , could ever conclude that my view is that I allow ' everyone to object to everything merely on the basis of their personal moral views ' . Like the authors , I see this as a recipe for anarchy . Boundaries have to be set , as they are for all civil rights . One might as well say , ' we can not allow everyone to say anything merely based on their personal views ' , or ' we can not allow everyone to join whatever organisation they like ' . Freedom of speech and of assembly need boundaries and have them in every liberal society that has ever existed . The same should apply to freedom of conscience . Moreover , every person is free to disapprove of anyone else 's associations , or speech , or conscientious objections . In that sense , we can not and do not treat all moral views equally . The law of a liberal state should not , however , impose a single code of ethical conduct on health care workers ( or any other citizen ) whatever their concerns , as long as those concerns meet the threshold for conscientious objection . It is the threshold that needs to be debated . Once the laws are passed following the appropriate debate , we should abide by the umpire 's decision . Thus , a state may and indeed ought to choose certain systems of morality over others for the purposes of regulating different spheres of public life . Racist systems of morality ought to be excluded from any sphere of public life . Religious systems of morality or secular systems of morality that are at odds with the professional standards of certain legal and socially accepted professions ought to be excluded from such professions . And so on . Reply : To repeat , conscientious objection in health care must meet a reasonableness test . A system of morality that treats some people as inferior merely because of the colour of their skin is one that no reasonable person should agree with . There will , as I have emphasised , always be boundaries and limitations , as with all basic rights . It is not a game , as though what matter is respecting the umpire 's decision . Such an attitude positively opens the way to arbitrary rule , with the state as umpire ' deciding ' and everyone else , including doctors , falling in line no matter what . In any case , the question is precisely what are the standards by which any ' umpiring ' should take place . These standards , I submit , should change . In particular , the liberal , democratic state may not dictate that a secular , i.e. non-religious , system of morality trumps the rights of religious believers , or that one particular moral system trumps the rights of those with sincere , deeply held conscientious objections to some of its principles or requirements . OUR REPLY : Again , this is question-begging : it all depends on whether certain things do constitute " rights " of religious believers . We have said that conscientious objection to activities that are consistent with good professional standards of a freely chosen profession is not a right that simply follows from a general principle of ' freedom of conscience ' . Liberal democratic states are secular states , and secular principles trump freedom of religion in many cases , and rightly so . For instance , in most countries Jehovah 's Witnesses can not appeal to their freedom of religion to deny blood transfusions to their children : in a secular society , the best interest of children , which is a secular value , trumps religious freedom , and rightly so . Since , luckily , we live in secular societies , professional standards of good practice should be informed by secular values , and this does not violate any right to religious freedom . Reply : I have never thought of the best interests of children as being a uniquely secular value . I have always assumed it to be at the core of all religions . It does not , however , entail that one be allowed , for example , to commit a murder to save a child , or torture an innocent person to save a child . Even the best interests of children are qualified . That said , without going into the details of why Jehovah 's Witnesses believe what they do about blood transfusions , it seems on the face of it unreasonable . In other words , for conscientious objection to work in the face of severe disagreement between the relevant parties , there must be room for reasonable disagreement , within a statutory and judicial framework , over whether an objection can be maintained . So it is not part of my position ( though other defenders of medical conscience may disagree ) that any objection based on one 's religion or ethical code will ipso facto pass the test . To take another example , it is an integral part of my position that a conscientious objector can not object to cooperation with an act they deem to violate their principles if their cooperation is sufficiently remote and non-implicating . I have argued for this at length in various places . I also do not allow mere disgust or distaste , no matter how prevalent such an attitude to a particular practice may be among a religious group , to be sufficient . Nor would a mere personal interpretation of one 's religious or ethical code be sufficient . There has to be some objective standard whereby a judge could conclude that it was the teaching of one 's religion , or of one 's ethical code ( pacifism , for example ) that a certain kind of action was wrong . Expert witness evidence would need to be taken in some cases , assuming the case had to go to a court or tribunal . This is all consistent with a presumption in favour of conscience . It is not as though the objector should immediately be on the ' back foot ' , having to justify themselves before the state or their professional body . Procedures need to be in place whereby an apparently sincere and reasonable objection is taken seriously and acted on if there is no obvious or significant concern about any patient 's immediate well being . Only if there is a challenge should the objection be formally tested in a court or tribunal . The right to practice one 's religion implies freedom to believe and to practice that religion in one 's own life , but not to impose those religious values on others in professional roles . It implies the freedom to choose from a reasonable range of jobs and professions ; it does not imply the freedom to choose any job or profession and modify it as one sees fit . Reply : No defender of conscientious objection is suggesting that anyone be allowed to ' impose ' anything on anyone else . On the contrary , by denying conscientious objection , critics such as Giubilini and Savulescu want to impose their own morality and beliefs on practitioners for whom the relevant activities are contrary to their sincerely and deeply held religious and/or ethical principles . They wish to compel others to act in matters contrary to conscience . Objectors merely wish not to be involved . As for the ' freedom to choose from a reasonable range of jobs and professions ' , this is simply to relegate religious belief and practice to second-class status in a liberal society -- the sort of virtual persecution one sees in professedly secular states such as China . Perhaps , given the anti-religious bent presupposed by such an attitude , critics of medical conscience really would like liberal states to become professedly secular , where religion was at best tolerated as a manageable irritation . I do not see this as a desirable direction in which to move . The law does not require people to participate in practice they consider morally objectionable . The law does not require a person to become a GP and prescribe contraceptives . One is totally free not to become a GP . Thus , we could grant conscientious objection to those already in professions which at some point change their professional standards , but there is no reason to admit people into professions requiring practices they do not wish to perform . This does not violate any fundamental freedom and it is necessary for social coordination . Reply : Once again , the ' no one forced you to become a doctor ' response begs the very question at issue : what should the standards of the profession be ? Should conscientious objection be allowed in the first place ? Giubilini and Savulescu accuse me of pandering to moral relativism -- a false allegation -- yet how evidently relativistic is the idea that we should simply take the professional standards in medicine for what they are , with no further criticism ? Now perhaps they are not making such a sweeping claim . Perhaps their claim is that , to the extent that the standards do not allow conscientious objection , they should be taken at face value . But this would be mere cherry-picking : accept the standards as binding when they suit your case , otherwise -- if , say , they disallowed a practice that the critics supported -- subject them to a critique . Furthermore , what are the standards ? When it comes to the rights of conscience , the guidelines of the General Medical Council and of the Royal College of General Practitioners are on the face of it more liberal than those of the British Medical Association and of the Nursing and Midwifery Council . It will be rare to find a single consensus on health care standards , especially when it comes to the very issues that defenders of conscience have in mind -- where moral views diverge , sometimes heatedly but often quite reasonably . The appeal to standards is not as persuasive as Giubilini and Savulescu think it is . Freedom of conscience and religion in a liberal society does not entail that ' anything goes ' . A health care worker should not be able to find shelter under freedom of conscience and religion merely by claiming it . For the protection to apply , a person must have a deeply held , sincere adherence to a tenet or doctrine of their code of ethics or religion that forbids -- expressly or by necessary implication -- the kind of act to which they object . OUR REPLY : This point is undermined by what we have said above . It proceeds from the assumption that there is a right to freedom of conscience in the fulfilment of one 's professional duties . This still requires justification . In any case , it would be almost impossible in practice to assess whether one 's objection is based on sincere and deeply held beliefs or is just a matter of opportunism ( e.g. the desire to avoid unpleasant activities or , say , to please a Catholic director of a hospital so as to further one 's career ) . Reply : I do not understand the scepticism . Should we be similarly dismissive of hopes for reasonable assessment of cases when it comes to free speech or freedom of assembly ? There will always be hard cases , but hard cases , as they saying goes , make bad law . Courts are generally pretty good at weeding out vexatious litigants , insincere or lying claimants , false witnesses , and so on . They are not perfect , but they are the best we have . To decline to apply normal judicial procedure to conscience cases is , again , to cherry-pick . Moreover , the relevant religious or ethical code must be one that has current or historic popular acceptance across some significant portion of the society in which the conscientious objector resides , or in some other society where the code is readily identifiable . OUR REPLY : This point is , from an ethical standpoint , completely arbitrary and discriminatory towards those who do not subscribe to any religion or that belong to minority moral groups , or who have moral views that others do not share . Reply : Where is any of this in that clause ? On the contrary , I explicitly say ' religious or ethical ' , and have repeatedly stressed that those who do not ' subscribe to any religion ' are equally within the scope of the Declaration . Nor have I said anything about ' minority moral groups ' or ' views that others do not share ' . All I am proposing is that there has to be some general code or other , which might not be particularly detailed or widespread . The entire point of this clause is not to promote arbitrariness but to minimise it , by excluding claims to conscience that consist of no more than ' I do n't like X ' or ' I do n't want to do X ' or even ' I think X is wrong ' . The claimant has to do more than that to make out a reasonable case . Conscience is a reflective faculty for discerning right and wrong . It is not mere intuition or feeling . It need n't be deeply analytical ; you do n't have to be a professional ethicist to avail yourself of conscience rights in the public square . But you need to have some sort of reasoned position that you can at least articulate in outline : ' I am a pacifist , and therefore do not believe in taking life ' , ' I am an Evangelical Christian and am opposed to abortion ' , ' I am against extreme body modification because my faith teaches me that self-mutilation is sinful ' , or some such . And this can not be an idiosyncratic interpretation of one 's code . There has to be some objective standard whereby a tribunal could determine that a certain activity , either expressly or by necessary implication , was forbidden . A claimant does not need a papal ex cathedra statement or equivalent . If a significant portion of the rabbinate from one 's Jewish denomination all said the same thing , or if the same principle was expressed in numerous writings on pacifism , or Lutheranism , or Buddhism , and so on -- that would , in my view , be sufficient to make out the case . Why should it matter how many people share my own moral views for my right to freedom of conscience ? We can not privilege certain religious or ethical views in defining individual rights to freedom of conscience just because those views happen to be popular or have historically been predominant ( often thanks to very objectionable strategies and relations of power ) . Historically , slavery , racism and sexism were supported by large sections of society but these should not serve as a basis for ethical practice . Reply : By ' popular ' I do not mean majority or predominant . All I mean is that in the objector 's own society , or in some society that reflects the views of the objector in some significant , relatively identifiable way , one can identify teachings from which the objector derives their objection . Otherwise the way to arbitrary and ungrounded objections is straight and wide . The popularity of a certain ethical or religious code is normally not taken to be as a valid criterion for the definition of a right to freedom of conscience . As seen above , many Muslim doctors would like to be able to object to medically inspecting people intoxicated by recreational drugs or of the opposite sex ; this is unacceptable , but according to this standard , this is not different from a Catholic doctor who does n't want to perform an abortion , since in both cases the religious code is one that has current popular acceptance across a significant portion of some society . Reply : Exactly . These both seem to me to be paradigm cases of CO where identifiable teaching is available . Again , by ' popular ' I am not suggesting it is a ' numbers game ' . Freedom of conscience applies as much to Amish or Baha'i as to Catholics or Muslims in a liberal and pluralistic society . And the same applies , for instance , to the creationist teacher who would like to be able to object to teaching evolution , or to the vegetarian waitress who would like to be able to object to serve meat . Vegetarians account for about 10% of the population in Europe , where vegetarianism can be considered a lifestyle choice rather than a necessity : undoubtedly , this makes vegetarianism an ethical code with popular acceptance across a significant portion of society . Still -- to remain within the medical context -- a vegetarian pharmacist should not be allowed to deny patients medications using animal products based on her own particular values . Reply : As for the ' creationist ' teacher , I reserve judgment given that my focus is health care . As to the vegetarian pharmacist , I do n't see why they should not receive an accommodation in such a case . The strong presumption in favour of conscientious objection would be rebutted if it could be shown that the act or practice in question were such that no reasonable person could object to its performance in the particular health care circumstances at hand . OUR REPLY : This point does not add anything because the concept of ' reasonable ' here deployed is very unclear , as is in general in the academic debate on conscientious objection ( see e.g. Marsh 2014 ) . Oderberg is trying to connect the debate on conscientious objection to the debate about toleration of different comprehensive doctrines in a context of reasonable disagreement , but this does not take us very far . First of all , there is a general problem about whether , by any standard of ' reasonableness ' , it is reasonable to allow any person to object to any professional obligation as long as the objection is taken to be reasonable ( and sincerely held , and having currency among a large portion of society ) : that reasonable objections within a freely chosen profession should be accommodated might itself not be a reasonable principle ; toleration of reasonable views does not need to go that far . Reply : The authors restate their opposition to the reasonableness of allowing objections to professional obligations . I repeat my disagreement with them . I also repeat my charge that at the risk of begging the question , the authors can not put aside the concern as to just what those professional objections are and should be . I want to see a debate about this at the highest levels -- by parliament , the major medical bodies , and via litigation . It is a scandal that the major civil rights , including freedom of conscience and for that matter freedom of speech , entrenched for decades in international law , have barely been tested in the UK legal system . To digress slightly , the ' witch scare ' over so-called ' hate speech ' , which virtually amounts to ' thought crimes ' , has not been met by systematic parliamentary and judicial analysis so as to delimit the very boundaries of what is legal . I submit that the heated debate over conscience in medicine is in desperate need of a proper legislative and judicial framework , with politicians and judges exercising their minds over just what the scope of conscientious objection ought to be , given the foundational status of freedom of conscience in the many international instruments to which the UK is a party . Secondly , and importantly , even if we accept that principle , what is ' reasonable ' ? In one broad sense of ' reasonable ' , you can find at least one reasonable person who would object to pretty much any activity that falls within professional standards and expectations : abortion , vaccination , antibiotic prescription , inspecting patients intoxicated by recreational drugs , and so on . Appealing to the idea of reasonable disagreement to settle conflicts about different comprehensive doctrines is quite common in political philosophy , most notably in John Rawls ' Political Liberalism , and in the debate on CO as well ( see eg Card 2007 and 2014 ) , but it is very unclear what ' reasonable ' means . The fact that John Rawls himself was reluctant to provide a definition of ' reasonable ' and more often relied on what he took to be an intuitive sense of the term is quite telling of how fishy the concept is . Reply : I take all of these points , and do not pretend for a minute that reasonableness gives you a decision procedure for working out which conscientious objections to accommodate . I am completely ' up front ' in my view that , given the lack of a superior alternative , we have to hand contested conscience cases over to the courts or to specialist tribunals . But first we need a statutory framework , and we do n't even have that . In my book Opting Out I propose the following key clause in any putative Rights of Conscience in Health Care Act : ' no individual , whether through their own agency or the agency of a corporation or other legally recognised body , shall be required to provide , participate in , cooperate with , or refer for , any goods or services of a health-care-related nature contrary to that individual 's conscientious beliefs , religious beliefs or moral convictions ' . Consider also Illinois ' Health Care Right of Conscience Act , section 4 : ' No physician or health care personnel shall be civilly or criminally liable to any person , estate , public or private entity or public official by reason of his or her refusal to perform , assist , counsel , suggest , recommend , refer or participate in any way in any particular form of health care service which is contrary to the conscience of such physician or health care personnel . ' As for that catch-all term ' reasonable ' , the simple fact is that common law is replete with ' terms of art ' such as ' negligent ' , ' cause ' , ' foreseeable ' , ' reasonable ' , and the like . What the law calls ' reasonableness tests ' are found everywhere . Rarely if ever do legislators try to define such terms , partly because they are so broad and generic that any definition would , for legal purposes , be itself so wide in scope as to be of little practical use . In addition , the breadth of the terms means that they crop up all over the common law , in just about any kind of tort case you could think of , as well as contract , property , and other areas . Their wide applicability means that a huge range of types of factual situation can be relevant to how those terms are applied , and it is hard to tell in advance how a given term might be employed in a particular case . So , in their wisdom , parliaments leave it to judges to give flesh to the bare bones of these very general legal concepts . If we were to eliminate all ' reasonableness tests ' from the law , the legal system would collapse . I am happy for the ' reasonableness ' buck to stop with the courts . In any case , we do not even need to go as far as to define reasonability to make our point . What we want -- and we assume Oderberg also would want -- is to apply the concept of ' reasonable ' consistently even we assumed that reasonable objections should be accommodated . For instance , we could stipulate that a reasonable moral or religious comprehensive doctrine is one that does not involve any unjust discrimination and that is consistent with a certain degree of liberty of other people ( so , for instance moral views that imply some form of sexism or racism are not reasonable and therefore should not be tolerated in liberal societies ) . But if we accept this broad understanding and we want to apply it consistently , why should we think that conscientious objection to , say , abortion , or contraceptives , or euthanasia , on the basis of religious or ethical reasons is more reasonable than conscientious objection to , say , prescription of antibiotics or vaccination or to medically inspecting patients intoxicated by recreational drugs ? If the former is reasonable , then the latter are as well ; and if the latter are n't , then religious or moral opposition to abortion is not reasonable either . But if we are not prepared to allow the latter examples of conscientious objection , why should we allow CO to euthanasia based , say , on the religious beliefs that a our body and our life are not our property but God 's ? Unless we resolve these substantial ethical issues , the appeal to the concept of ' reasonable ' does not seem to take us very far in a justification of conscientious objection in health care . Other conceptions of ' reasonable ' might be provided , but the burden is on the proponents to show that they allow to pick out just those few cases of conscientious objection that they think should be granted ( and not , say , conscientious objection to providing vaccination ) . Reply : The authors now seem to be more concerned with the mechanics of reasonable accommodations that with the principle . I agree that there is plenty of work to be done here , both in health care and beyond . Baroness Hale , President of the Supreme Court , has used the very language of ' reasonable accommodation ' to express her own concerns that a ' fair balance ' has yet to be struck between competing individual rights , and also between individual rights and those of the community . It was she who gave the Court 's judgment in the Doogan case that the midwives had no protection from being required to carry out various abortion-related actions that violated their religious and ethical beliefs . In her view , a general ' conscience clause ' may well be needed to achieve the right balance , the implication being that this applies within and beyond health care . What the UK needs is what it has not yet had -- a royal commission of inquiry into the state of freedom of conscience in medicine , a Law Reform Commission investigation , and/or serious debate within Parliament and among the major medical bodies . Baroness O'Loan 's Conscientious Objection ( Medical Activities ) Bill was the subject of some spirited debate in the Lords earlier in 2018 , but is now stuck in Report Stage , with no indication of revival . The vigorous objections raised by some Peers , identical to those raised by Giubilini and Savulescu , were equally vigorously rebutted by the bill 's supporters . The situation has not advanced since then . I do not pretend to have a magic formula that will enable anyone to ' pick out just those few cases of conscientious objection that they think should be granted ( and not , say , conscientious objection to providing vaccination ) ' . I also have no formula that neatly delimits the boundaries of freedom of religion in general , freedom of speech , freedom of the media , or freedom of assembly . It is bordering on hypocritical to set a higher standard for freedom of conscience . There might be substantial moral differences between euthanasia and providing antibiotics or vaccines , but if so , what we need to address is precisely such substantial moral issues . If people think that abortion is morally impermissible , then they should campaign to have it excluded from the domain of what constitutes good medical practice , trying to persuade people on the basis of public reason , and for consistency 's sake they should not take on professions whose recognized standards conflict with their own personal moral standard . If they succeed at showing , through public reason , that abortion is unethical , then the proper policy solution would not be that of allowing abortion and also allowing conscientious objection to abortion -- which would presuppose a relativistic moral framework ( Giubilini 2014 ) -- but to exclude abortion from the proper scope of medical profession . Thus , as we have argued ( Giubilini 2017 , Savulescu 2006 ) , we should stop focussing on the value of conscience and of freedom of conscience and shift our attention to substantial moral issues to determine what exactly should and should not fall within the proper scope of medicine ( or indeed of any other profession ) Reply : I agree completely that opponents of abortion should campaign to have it banned or heavily restricted , opponents of euthanasia should also campaign , as well as critics of human embryo research , and of whichever treatment or procedure one happens to oppose . Opponents do campaign . But this is a distinct issue . It must not be confused with the conscience issue . To say that ' for consistency 's sake they should not take on professions whose recognized standards conflict with their own personal moral standard ' seems to me bizarre . How is it inconsistent both to oppose procedure X and to campaign for a reasonable accommodation or opt-out where X is legal ? If anything , the two positions go hand in hand . Conscience cases of recent concern nearly all involve beginning and end-of-life activities such as contraception and sterilisation , abortion , assisted suicide , and euthanasia . Reasonable people have serious disagreements over the legitimacy of some or all of these practices , and over whether participation in such activities should be compelled by law . OUR REPLY : Reasonable people have disagreement also about practices that do not allow conscientious objection , such as vaccination , at least if we take ' reasonable ' to mean something like " not discriminatory and consistent with other people 's freedoms " , and not something like ' rational ' or ' informed by evidence ' ( given that religion-based objections are not informed by evidence either ) . Reply : I do not mean either of these things . By ' reasonable disagreement ' all I mean is that a reasonable case can be made out for the impermissibility of the procedure in dispute . But the case , to be a genuine conscience case , has to be grounded in some body of teaching , religious or non-religious . The relevant principles should not be beyond all scrutiny , but there should be a presumption in their favour where the teaching has significant adherence in the way specified earlier . One might add the desirability of an overlap between more than one body of teaching , where procedure X is considered wrong in body of teaching B1 and in B2 and maybe in more . This would add to the case in favour of reasonableness . In Italy some doctors have been expelled from the national association of medical doctors because of their opposition to vaccines . Vaccination is consistent with recognized professional standards as is abortion , so it is not clear why objecting to vaccination should imply expulsion from the profession and objecting to abortion should constitute a human right . Reply : I am happy to thrash out the vaccination vs. abortion debate in a separate post as it would take us too far afield to discuss it here . All I will say is that it might well depend on what the opposition to vaccination consists in -- all vaccination ? Vaccination of children with immature immune systems ? Compulsory vaccination ? I do n't have a settled view on conscience in vaccinations , but I am glad the authors are thinking about it . This is just the sort of public debate we need to have ! That notwithstanding , it is abundantly clear that freedom of conscience and religion should not be thought of solely , or even primarily , in terms of the practices that happen to be the flashpoints of current controversies . OUR REPLY : Yes , we agree : if freedom of conscience justifies conscientious objection to abortion or euthanasia , it also justifies conscientious objection to many other practices that are not flashpoints of current controversies , such as IVF . However , for what we have said above , we take this to be a reductio ad absurdum : since we can not accept that conscientious objection should be justified in cases such IVF or vaccination , we can not accept the premise that a principle of freedom of conscience justifies conscientious objection to abortion or euthanasia where these practices are taken to be consistent with professional standards . Reply : As philosophers like to say , one man 's modus ponens is another man 's modus tollens . The authors are worried that legal protection of conscience will lead to a rash of opt-outs , so they oppose it altogether . My view is that cases where the claim to an opt-out is very strong may well imply less obvious opt-outs that are perhaps not as strong but still sufficiently persuasive to require protection . There is no reason to think that parliament or the courts would set up a framework that allowed any and all opt-outs to whatever health care procedure or service was objected to . On the contrary , I would expect any statutory and judicial framework to be pretty tight -- not so tight as to shift the entire burden of proof onto the objector , but tight enough to make opt-outs relatively difficult to get without making out a decent case on a balance of probabilities . Even if one disagreed with conscientious objection to some or all of the practices listed above , one should be concerned that controversies will soon also arise , as they are already beginning to , in cases such as : transgender surgery ; extreme cosmetic surgery ; various forms of artificial reproduction ; cloning ; gene editing and other forms of genetic engineering ; cognitive enhancement ; performance-enhancing drugs in sport and other areas ; creation of chimeras ; and much more . OUR REPLY : Yes , and we agree that it might be difficult to determine whether some of them should or should not be considered consistent with good medical practice and included among professional obligations . But for what we have said above , the debate should happen at this level , not at the level of alleged rights to conscientious objection , given that the latter would be open to all the problems we have raised so far . Patients should not be held hostage to the values of an individual doctor , especially when that doctor has a monopoly power over the patient 's health or life . Reply : The debate needs to be had at all levels , including over professional standards as to the procedures themselves and standards as to the scope of professional obligations . We need parliament involved , and the courts , and think tanks , and the major professional bodies . Otherwise we will sleepwalk into a doctor 's nightmare , where professional and moral integrity is lost to the coercive power of the state . At the very least , many competent , skilled , good-willed members of the profession will find themselves marginalised and hounded out of their chosen careers , just as happened to the midwives Doogan and Wood . This can not be tolerated in a liberal and pluralistic society . We will continue to see the list of controversial practices and activities increase at speed due to advances in biotechnology . If now is not the time to come out in strong support of freedom of conscience and religion in health care , we do not know when is . OUR REPLY : We think this is not the time to come out in support of conscientious objection . This is the time to discuss whether and which of these new controversial practices should be part of the proper scope of medicine , and in what circumstances , in a rational , informed public discourse . Reply : If that is the correct view , it follows logically that it will never be the time to come out in support of conscientious objection . For there will always be new developments in medicine to debate , and they will only increase in number , which means increasing levels of controversy over their use . Now , I submit , is the best time to have the public debate we desperately need , and to get a legal framework in place . Even if you feel sanguine about the controversies either actual or on the immediate horizon , you should be seriously concerned about what is over that horizon . If you are not prepared to make a stand now , whatever your opinion about this or that particular issue , then when the time comes that your own individual conscience is under threat , it will probably be too late . Who will be there , at that time , to come to your aid ? OUR REPLY : Reasoning ethically implies adopting an impartial , disinterested perspective . Whether conscientious objection in health care should be allowed is an ethical issue and , as such , should be discussed from an impartial point of view . The conclusion we reach should be valid regardless of who it is whose conscience will be under threat . If it was our conscience to be ' under threat ' in the same way in which Oderberg thinks that the conscience of doctors required to perform abortions is ' under threat ' , we would still say that the ethical thing to do would be for us , or for anyone else , to choose a different profession . Reply : I agree that we must be impartial and disinterested . This is the very tenor of my case for conscientious objection . With a legal framework in place , no doubt I myself will disagree with some of the opt-outs handed down by the courts or tribunals . But this is a price well worth paying to protect one of our fundamental freedoms . I do not want to see doctors forced to choose between their consciences and their careers , especially given the amount of public service they would continue to do were their consciences accommodated . Refusal to accommodate a basic civil right , with the consequent loss to public health , would give us the worst of all worlds . |

It talked about things like the need for light rail systems and it talked about the need for residential growth within the city centre . That plan laid the foundations for so much of what you see today and people still reference that document in the town hall to see what was said about parts of the city @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's happened in the past 32 years is the death and rebirth of a city " Eddie Smith , Manchester City Council DS : Manchester was a mess . I remember when I joined English Tourist Board in 1986 and one of the first things I did there was a joint venture with Sir Howard Bernstein and Ted Kitchen at Manchester City Council , Trafford and Salford councils for Castlefield and up to Salford Quays . That was the first time I sensed there was a real move from the city to do things . You would n't recognise Castlefield at the time . It was just scrap yards . Nobody would go there . In fact , very few people came to the city centre . So the move to change was because of the personalities at the time really wanting to move things forward . I 've been involved with Manchester ever since and when you look at what 's happened it is about the personalities in the city and their willingness to drive things forward and work in partnership . DSM : I think definitely leadership as opposed to broader economic forces . I met an econometrician from Oxford Economics who had a forecast model looking at Liverpool , Manchester and Hull in the 1980s . It was a forecast based upon underlying economic indicators in 1980 and predicted that Manchester and Hull were going to follow a very similar economic trajectory . The long-term infrastructural and economic ingredients were very similar , so it ca n't just be about location or basic infrastructure . It 's about the quality of the plan and the leadership behind the plan . DM : What 's different here is the courage to be innovative such as leading the way in devolution to city regions . There is something about the culture of place . You ca n't necessarily lift and replicate what happened in Manchester somewhere else because Manchester 's strength is around its culture , its innovation , its history and its heritage . GL Hearn assembled a strong collection of speakers in Manchester And @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we did n't knock all the mills down and build a new city . We 've embraced the culture and the assets so that developers such as Tim are bringing back some of the most beautiful buildings in the city , respecting the heritage . Manchester has also been courageous in not accepting the first investment that lands on its lap but choosing investment that is really going to add value long term . TH : That 's something Manchester does well -- ensuring those who are developing the city have a long-term horizon . Other cities could be accused of having poor-quality developers and architecture that 's not added much and actually puts other long-term developers off because they know they are going to be undercut by low-quality product . TH : For me it was relatively straightforward because I 've grown up here seeing great architects and great developers , people like Bruntwood , Urban Splash , Ask and Muse , delivering fantastic buildings . So when other places say ' can you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stuff you do ? ' I say ' sure , I 'll bring my little black book of Manchester rules ' . But really , you ca n't masterplan a swagger or an attitude . It 's in the spirit of the people here . It 's hard to say what the checklist is . DSM : The whole landscape of city development is littered with strategies and failed delivery . It 's not just about the vision , it 's the tenacity to squeeze the pips out of everything . That 's what the city council is pretty good at . You look at Oxford Road -- there was huge investment in hospital infrastructure , huge investment in the university . The city council did n't just observe and enjoy that happening . The city council put a strategy together and squeezed the benefits out , economically , socially , culturally and from a retail perspective . That 's what you do n't see in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ see quite passive civic leadership . TH : When talking to chief executives of other cities about the black book of Manchester rules , one of things you 've got to deliver is projects in areas where the pizza delivery man wo n't go -- places like Salford Quays . That 's where Manchester has been brave enough and bold enough to tackle . DM : It 's also about understanding the commercial world and its drivers . Not all places understand how the sector works . The city 's leaders always meet people and talk to them at great length to really understand where they are coming from and what their drivers are and the value they can add . It is something that 's pretty unique here . DS : Members have got to understand that the private sector has got to make a profit . When I first started that was n't there . If you wanted to do a joint venture , there was a view in local authorities that making a profit was a bad thing . That was what changed in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ growth you needed partners and they were n't going to invest unless there was a return there . DM : At a local level , the tram system extending to the surrounding towns was a significant investment that is really starting to bring life to those town centres that have been struggling . It brings places much closer to the city centre . You will see those town centres getting more residential development and more regeneration . You can already see land values starting to increase . JB : There 's an opportunity to reshape the uses in those town centres . This needs a mix of residential and some commercial schemes that stack up . That 's not necessarily grade-A office space ; in fact , it invariably wo n't be . But it is about creating really interesting spaces that go with the grain of the businesses in those areas . It has to draw on all of Manchester 's ability to do partnerships . JH : People are too slow to accept change . Some of the town centres around the city core are fantastic and have the most amazing buildings . Actually trying to focus on retail and trying to keep hold of that retail centre is probably wrong . Does it matter if you convert some of those old retail units into apartments and people come back and live there ? That 's part of the city growing and maturing . If they are going home and spending money near home , that 's going to encourage the development of local caf ? s , breweries and bakeries . It becomes a virtuous circle . TH : I 'm a great believer in town centres but they 've lost their way . The much-trumpeted example is Altrincham . Now it 's not every town that can have a trendy food market but it does reflect a wider trend . Everything used to be about convenience . You would drive to your supermarket and do all your shopping in one place . But now it 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , it is something they can capitalise on . Market House food hall in Altrincham ES : Altrincham is fascinating . You had the most affluent community living around it but it was dead . You get one individual who comes along with a brilliant idea and works with the council . The catalytic effect that one individual has had on the town centre ca n't be understated . Other places like Ramsbottom are also thriving . But yes there are places that are suffering . They need to be fundamentally rethought . We need to think about the purpose of those places . For me it 's about living and work . You have to be brave and think long term . DM : You need agility as well . You can have your plan but have to be aware the way we work and live is changing so quickly you ca n't set in stone what your town centre is going to look like in 20 years . For example , people work more flexibly than we ever thought -- having more flexible workspace available @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ What are the key challenges for Manchester going forward and how can the city ensure it remains successful ? ES : There 's a brutal fact confronting Manchester -- we are going to run out of land . The city is going to run out of land in 15 years . We think that by the end of the 2220s we will have close to 700,000 to 750,000 people living in the city so the surrounding towns will have to play a key role in sustaining the city regions growth trajectory . They need to ensure they 're creating the right employment opportunities that can no longer and should no longer be served from the city centre and provide places for people to live . The role of public transport systems in that can not be underestimated . HD : Tech is going to be really important -- everything from the rise of autonomous vehicles and electric cars to ways of working and shopping . The whole of modern living is on pendulum swing . The vision that we talk about in 1984 was 20 years ahead of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 20 years ahead again to keep Manchester and the surrounding region prospering . Developer Bruntwood and joint venture partner Trafford Council have unveiled plans to regenerate the Trafford area of Manchester , including extensive housing developments , a new leisure centre and a redeveloped retail park . |

All hail Saint Freddie ! The extravagant , operatic lead singer of Queen is portrayed as a sanitised superhero for the 21st century in the new biopic Bohemian Rhapsody . At its laughable climax , we see Freddie Mercury finally fall in love and come out as gay to his parents , earning their tearful blessing -- on the day his band achieves rock immortality with an all-conquering set at Live Aid . Actor Rami Malek plays the exuberantly camp star , who died from Aids in 1991 , as a misunderstood martyr to his own sexuality . It 's a message cynically manufactured for today 's hyper-sensitive souls , so eager to take offence while simultaneously parading their virtue . But Freddie Mercury was not virtuous . He was nobody 's martyr , and he did n't care who he offended . Freddie , in fact , could n't possibly become @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ him banned from every chat show , and he 'd probably be under investigation for his sexual behaviour across half of Europe . ' My sex drive is enormous , ' he announced . ' I sleep with men , women , cats -- you name it . I 'll go to bed with anything . My bed is so huge it can comfortably sleep six . I prefer my sex without any involvement . ' He was , he added , ' just an old slag who gets up every morning , scratches his head and wonders who he wants to f*** today . ' Far from being , as the film depicts him , a crusader who strove to change the world 's attitudes to HIV , a sort of Lady Di in leathers , Freddie kept his Aids diagnosis a secret from the public until the day before he died , insisting to journalists that he had stopped performing because , since turning 40 , he was too old to be ' prancing about ' on stage . ' It 's not illness , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just age . ' The movie has been scrupulously vetted by his Queen bandmates , Brian May and Roger Taylor , to ensure nothing soils his legend . They started the process of canonising Freddie right after his death , with a celebratory concert featuring famous friends such as Elton John , George Michael , Liza Minnelli and David Bowie . But the role of visionary figurehead and campaigner is one the singer never dreamed of and would not have recognised . It is a travesty , all the more unfair because he was a deeply complex man whose feuds and contradictions could have fuelled a much more interesting film than Bohemian Rhapsody . Freddie was a split personality , and knew it well . In his private life he was needy , selfish and insecure , swinging between mad generosity and vicious cruelty . ' I can be very over-emotional . I seem to eat people up when they get too close and destroy them . There must be a destructive element in me because I try very hard to build up relationships @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stage , a very different persona emerged . He became ego incarnate , utterly self-assured and imperious . When he performed , he said , he felt himself float out of his body and could look down at the strutting rock god who commanded the crowd 's adoration . He told his biographer , Lesley-Ann Jones : ' It 's like I 'm looking down on myself and thinking , " f*** me , that 's hot ! " ' The chasm between these two sides of his character made him impossibly difficult , and he knew it : ' I 'm a man of extremes . ' Even the most forgiving of his friends , such as the woman he called his ' common law wife ' , Mary Austin , were repeatedly banished . This set up a poisonous cycle of dumpings and pick-ups . ' I spoil my lovers terribly , ' he moaned . ' I like to make them happy and I get so much pleasure out of giving them wonderful , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over me . That 's why I go out looking for someone who will love me , even if it 's just a one-night stand . ' When he declared a break from Queen in the early Eighties to record a solo album -- tellingly titled Mr Bad Guy -- he announced that he had even dispensed with his three live-in assistants . After years of having an entourage at his beck and call , he preferred to be alone . To rub it in , he dedicated the album to his cat , Jerry , with the sign-off ' Screw everybody else ! ' Freddie arrived in Britain shortly after he left school , when his family had to flee his birthplace of Zanzibar -- off the East African coast -- amid political unrest . They settled in Middlesex , where he began studying art at Ealing College and met two members of a covers band called Smile -- Roger Taylor and Brian May . Their first collaboration was n't musical : Freddie and Roger sold secondhand clothes and Victoriana on a stall in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ flat they shared . Freddie wanted to be a musician , but not in a covers band : he saw himself as a genius , like his hero Jimi Hendrix . One college friend , Chris Smith , recalled : ' The first time I heard Freddie sing , I was amazed . He had a huge voice . Although his piano style was very affected , very Mozart , he had a great touch . ' After stints in bands called Ibex , Wreckage and Sour Milk Sea , he joined forces with May and Taylor , and insisted on calling the band Queen . He also adopted his own stage name : Mercury . His training as a graphic designer came in handy for their first two album covers , which featured a royal crest he created from the bands ' star signs : a crab for Brian ( Cancer ) , two lions for Roger and bassist John Deacon ( Leos ) , and a pair of fairies for Freddie himself ( symbolising Virgo , he claimed ) . But it was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ giving the band an edge beyond their hard rock sound . Their first chart single , Seven Seas Of Rhye , tapped into the Seventies fad for fantasy , with lyrics that might have been written by J.R.R. Tolkien after a spliff . Queen 's first real hit was drenched in Mercury 's wicked wit : ' Killer Queen is about a high-class call girl , ' he said . ' I was trying to say that classy people can be whores as well . . . it 's one of those bowler hat , black suspender numbers . ' Mercury partying with actress Jane Seymour and a friend in 1985 The album A Night At The Opera followed in 1975 , and by now Freddie 's desire for extremes was shaping the band 's sound . They had already pioneered a many-layered guitar sound , and were so irritated that critics assumed they were using synths that their LP covers carried a declaration : ' And nobody played synthesiser . ' On A Night At The Opera they went further , banishing session musicians @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ' Freddie said . It included a jibe at their ex-manager , entitled Death On Two Legs : ' It 's a nasty little number which brings out my evil streak . I was a demon for a few days . The words came very easy to me . I wanted to make them as coarse as possible . ' It 's a far cry from the airbrushed image of Queen 's four-octave vocalist , mincing around the studio and firing off a few glib quips . He famously addressed the Sex Pistols ' Sid Vicious as ' Simon Ferocious ' but the truth is Freddie was a better punk than any of the Pistols . It 's just that he was so much more besides . Nobody , though , could have called him a man of the people . His airy arrogance would see him beset with demands for apologies in today 's world of Twitter outrage . After the anthemic We Are The Champions was adopted on the football terraces , Freddie claimed : ' It was aimed at the masses @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to . It worked a treat . Of course , I 've given it more theatrical subtlety than an ordinary football chant . ' His arrogance was stoked by shovelfuls of cocaine . Everyone knows the story of the launch party for Queen 's 1978 album Jazz , where dwarfs balancing silver platters streaked in coke on their heads mingled among the guests , who had only to bend over and snort a line as one of them passed by . What is less well known is that Freddie once upset Michael Jackson , when the two were about to record together at his Los Angeles home in 1982 , by tipping a mound of cocaine onto the coffee table and chopping it into lines . To Freddie , this was as normal as rolling a cigarette . None of this features in the anodyne movie . And the stilted script , which might have been written by a committee of chartered surveyors for all the life it has , contains no hint of Freddie 's devilish wit . Asked many years ago by a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ family , he retorted : ' If I wanted children , I 'd just go to Harrods and buy one . They sell anything there . Buy two and you get a nanny thrown in . ' His sense of mischief sometimes caused trouble too . In Rio in 1985 , during a stadium gig that was being filmed for TV , Freddie 's costume during I Want To Break Free provoked the crowd to attack a cameraman . The band had donned drag for the song 's video , so Freddie paraded on stage with a gigantic pair of fake breasts under his crop-top . ' I do n't know why they got so excited about me dressing as a woman , ' said an unrepentant Freddie . ' There were lots of transvestites in Rio -- just go and look on any street corner . Anyway , ' he added , ' I was n't giving up my boobs for anyone . ' His attitude to money would hardly win him Facebook friends today , either . When Queen first started getting radio airplay @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with his first million . The question baffled Freddie : ' Spend it , dear , ' he shrugged . That attitude never changed . He spent so liberally that his accountants despaired . He and Elton John competed to be the most extravagant : ' Elton had that problem where people were staying at his home at the weekends , in his spare rooms , and they 'd look under the bed and there would be Rembrandts . With me , it 's my Japanese prints . ' Cartier , the New Bond Street jewellers , would open especially for him . ' I could buy up the whole shop . Some days when I 'm really fed up , I just want to lose myself in my money . I work up a storm and just spend and spend . Money ca n't buy happiness , it 's true , but you can force yourself sometimes . ' Suffice to say , that is not a sentiment voiced in the movie during the Live Aid scenes . As the band 's main songwriter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ album royalties than the group 's other members . And he enjoyed rubbing this in : ' Of course we 're in it for the money and I 'm not afraid to say that . I take most of it because I write all the hits . I make sure I get most of it , and I spend it . ' It 's not surprising that Freddie 's interviews were one of the major sources of friction in the band , nor that May and Taylor kept such a close grip on the movie script . They did n't want dialogue like that . In fact , they wanted a safe , disinfected , uncontroversial film -- and they did n't want the real Freddie Mercury anywhere near it . Bohemian Rhapsody : The Definitive Biography of Freddie Mercury by Lesley-Ann Jones is published by Hodder at ? 9.99. |

From a young age growing up as a fan of the Rocky films and throughout his professional career to date , fighting in America has long been a dream for Tommy Coyle . That dream was finally realised last weekend when the Hull super-lightweight met Ryan Kielczweski at the TD Garden in Boston , with Coyle returning home with a resounding points victory . Now , for the first time Coyle as spoken about his preparation for his dream fight , revealing that his training camp was actually a nightmare . The fans ' favourite says he actually came closing to withdrawing just four weeks before fight night having suffered with a back and hip problem . " I had the worst training camp I 've ever had in my life . I changed strength and conditioning coaches and I pulled my back ten weeks out from the fight . So I did n't actually complete one strength training session for that fight , " explained Coyle . " Four or five weeks from the fight , I actually rang Eddie Hearn and said if I have to pull out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ again ? I was missing so much training ; I did n't think it was going to go well at all " . Due to injury Coyle had to take a couple of weeks out of training but then having made the decision that he should continue at only three days before the fight injury was to strike again . " Three days before the fight my hip went . Because I had been putting a lot of pressure on my left side because of the back issue I had on my right side , my hip flexor went " . Coyle believes that an interview by Anthony Joshua after his fight with Alexander Povetkin was the inspiration that made him persevere , adding : " He said the he had the worst training camp ahead of the fight with Povetkin . He said that it is your job to be a professional and there is no such thing as perfect . " So I persevered and I knew that when I was in the ring I would find a way to win because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ am so glad that I did n't pull out . " While Coyle conquered his hip problem to record a convincing points win , he did it having suffered a broken hand in the fifth round . The break across the knuckle of his left hand is now expected to keep Coyle out of action until Christmas , with a return to training scheduled for late December as he gears up for what could potentially be the penultimate fight of his career |

The BBC Sport pundit believes the Newcastle United owner will want to ' speculate to accumulate ' in the next transfer window . Lawrenson 's reasoning is that simply Mike Ashley wo n't want to miss out on the ever greater Premier League riches , which he forecasts would be set to be worth around ? 160m to Ashley/NUFC next season , IF they remain in the top tier . The former Liverpool defender reasons : ' Why would n't you be spending ? 40m , ? 50m , ? 60m in January ? ' , in order ' To make sure you will be in the Premier League for the next season .

Thankfully some parts of the media are finally seeing the light . ASHLEY OUT ! Stephen Paylor He reacted that way before @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . However , he also just last season only allowed some loan deals which did still help . This time around who knows what to expect . One thing is for sure though is even if we strengthen in January and survive it will reduce any spending next summer as he will see it as a squad that is already strong enough to survive again the year after . Survival is all he cares about . Premier League revenue and exposure for SD . Lawro is like lots in the media they know jack ? ? about fatty , they all think like that other numpty that messages on here ( Cuckoo Clarko ) that Ashley saved us from oblivion . Kenny Clarkos cuckoo ok Billmag ? ? ? ? ? ? Wezza Really . FCB WILL NOT back Rafa in January . He has not sofar and will not . Besides We got a point against Southampton and at off the bottom !

At the end of the 2006 season , it seemed inconceivable that another driver would get close to Michael Schumacher 's record of seven drivers ' championships . Even the great man himself could n't emulate his own success when he returned with Mercedes , but as Lewis Hamilton celebrates yet another world title , it seems only a matter of when , not if , he will surpass Schumacher 's record . Even five years ago , Hamilton 's relentless run of success could not have been predicted . After four years of domination from Sebastian Vettel and Red Bull , Hamilton found himself under pressure to justify leaving championship contenders McLaren for the untried Mercedes outfit .

The sentence 'He doesn't opt out of anything.' does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object and a VP2[-ing] predicate, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'opt out of' is used here as a phrasal verb with 'anything' as its complement, not as part of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Vinatieri set the record by scoring points indoors , outdoors , in the rain and even in blizzard conditions . " He was a clutch , dependable player in his role , " Patriots coach Bill Belichick said about Vinatieri . " So , you ca n't ask for much more than that . He has had a fabulous career . Certainly , in my opinion , the greatest kicker in the game . Not just for his longevity and production , but again , the magnitude of some of the kicks that he made and the difficulty . Congratulations to him and to the great career that he has , and honestly it does n't seem like there is much sign of him slowing down . " Vinatieri never imagined he would go from being a NCAA Division II kicker at South Dakota State to making a stop in the now-defunct NFL Europe before getting a shot with the New England Patriots in 1996 . His NFL career might have been short-lived if not for a threat of being cut by then-Patriots coach Bill Parcells as a rookie in 1996 . Parcells ' comments helped @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ moment came when he made arguably the greatest kick in NFL history , a 45-yard field goal in blizzard conditions to get the Patriots to overtime , and then made the winner to beat the Oakland Raiders in a playoff game in January 2002 . That ignited New England 's dynasty . Vinatieri has made 27 game-winning field goals , including ones in Super Bowl XXXVI and XXXVIII . He also made an NFL-record 44 straight field goals that ended during the 2016 season and has made at least 80 percent of his attempts in 16 of his 23 seasons . " The snow kick is the one I 'm most proud of because out of sheer difficulty , " Vinatieri said . " That 's the hardest kick I 've ever had to make . Super Bowl kicks , those are the most memorable moments . As a football player , as a kid and as a professional athlete the moment of playing in the Super Bowl and winning a Super Bowl , that 's what you play your whole career for . " Vinatieri spent the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ where he totaled 1,158 of his points before signing with the Colts as a free agent in 2006 . " I 've gotten over my uncomfortable feeling of when I see him in a Colts uniform , " former Patriots linebacker Tedy Bruschi said . " I 've been retired for 10 years and I think I can look at it now and just be proud of him . When he made those five field goals against Baltimore in the playoffs ( in January 2007 ) , I remember thinking to myself , ' that 's our guy . ' I 'm happy for him and what he 's done up to this point . If there was any kicker worthy being a Hall of Famer , it 's him . " ESPN talked to several of Vinatieri 's former colleagues to get their thoughts on what has made him so effective throughout his 23-year career . Pat McAfee , former Colts punter and holder : " He 's the most competitive human that I 've ever met in my life . He 's an old , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the weight room he tries to keep up with the young bucks . Whether it 's the amount of weight being lifted , the amount of reps . He does n't opt out of anything . He 's such a competitive human that he wo n't ever let himself drop out of elite condition , and that type of competitive drive is what made him great . " Belichick : " He 's physically and mentally tough . When he was here , he trained and worked out with all the players . There was no special program for him as a kicker or anything like that . He embraced that . He had a great relationship with his teammates because of the way he worked , how competitive and mentally and physically tough he was , and how he was willing to help out in other areas of the team -- scout team and things like that . " Bill Polian , former Colts general manager : " He 's one of the most determined that I 've ever met in my career , and I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be the best . He 's among the top of that list . The year that he hurt his hip and had surgery ( after the 2008 season ) we talked quite a bit about what the ramifications were . I told him that was a tough deal for somebody in his profession and he said he knew , because he could n't do what he wanted to do so he wanted to get it fixed . He 's had another 10 years of pure determination , guts , fight . That 's why he 's so widely respected around the league . He 's a football player , not just a kicker . He 's a guy that everybody on the team respects because of his work ethic and toughness . " McAfee : " Before every kick I viewed it as my job being his caddie to kind of keep it light -- no matter what the situation is , I 'm going to crack a joke . We 'd talk about how bad the conditions were or how beautiful the day was or which drunk guy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . I started to crack a joke for one important kick ... He says nothing back . Straight crickets . I felt like I was talking to a stone cold crowd . I said another thing . Nothing . Then finally I just shut up . Normally right before a kick when he takes his steps back , I 'll look down to see if the snapper was ready . Then I would look back at Vinnie and say , ' You ready old man ? ' I said that before every single kick . He would respond out loud , ' Yep ' with a head nod . There was not a word said on this one . He 's just staring through me . It was that moment in time when I said , ' This is why he 's the most clutch human in history of sports . ' That moment was such a huge kick and he got so locked in to a zone that I do n't think a lot of humans can get to . " With 2,547 points , Adam Vinatieri has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Luck , Colts quarterback : " I think I was a 6-year-old when I went to watch him play in NFL Europe for the Amsterdam Admirals in 1996 with my dad . I think I take Vinatieri for granted and I do n't appreciate that man enough . What he 's done in the NFL and who he is as a teammate , he 's awesome . He 's the epitome of professional , he 's got a young heart , and he 's got a monster leg . He 's a treat and a pleasure to be around . I get to tell my grandkids someday that I got to play with Adam Vinatieri , the greatest kicker in the history of the NFL and hopefully the first first-ballot Hall of Fame kicker in the NFL. " |

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('intimidate them out of helping the refugees'). It involves an animate NP subject ('the gunman') and an NP object ('them') that functions as a causee. The interpretation is prevention ('prevent them from helping the refugees'), which aligns with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

PITTSBURGH -- As the Jewish community of Squirrel Hill began to bury its dead Tuesday from the massacre in the Tree of Life synagogue Saturday , President Trump paid his respects , in a visit few had requested and many opposed . His motorcade was greeted by a demonstration of hundreds of marchers calling to one another to " turn your back " on the president . A line stretched far down the block for the funeral of Dr. Jerry Rabinowitz , one of the 11 killed by a gunman whom police have identified as a 46-year-old man , whose social media posts indicate he was enraged by what he perceived as Jewish support for immigration . Rabinowitz , 66 , was known for his compassionate treatment of AIDS victims . The service for brothers Cecil and David Rosenthal also drew a large crowd a mile and a half away . There was a heavy police presence outside the Jewish Community Center where Rabinowitz 's service was held , with officers from the Pittsburgh Police Department and nearby Carnegie Mellon University surrounding @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by President Trump and Rabbi Jeffrey Myers , right , pays her respects at the Tree of Life synagogue . ( Photo : Andrew Harnik/AP ) Trump , who spent three and a half hours in the city , including a visit to a pop-up memorial to the victims and to wounded police officers recovering in the hospital , had been asked by Mayor Bill Peduto to delay the trip until all the services were concluded . City councilor Erika Strassburger , who lives near the Tree of Life and drives past the building every day , said her constituents had contacted her to oppose the trip . " There are many , many constituents who 've reached out to me by phone and email concerned that the president 's visit today will add to the trauma of the community and many community members , " said Strassburger early Tuesday afternoon before Trump 's arrival . " I wo n't say that necessarily speaks for every single person in my district , that 's just what I 've heard . " Strassburger 's constituents were n't the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Peduto , county executive Rich Fitzgerald , Gov . Tom Wolf , and Sen. Bob Casey and Sen. Pat Toomey ( all Democrats save for Toomey ) -- declined to join . Trump also failed to convince congressional leadership from either party to take the trip . Trump spoke with family members of at least one victim , according to Dr. Donald Yealy , but others reportedly rebuffed offers from the White House to meet the president , who has been blamed by commentators for inspiring violence with his anti-immigrant rhetoric and his demonization of " globalists , " a word that has been historically associated with anti-Semitism . His remarks shortly after the shooting that the gunman could have been deterred by an armed guard were also controversial . ( Four police officers were injured in the apprehension of the shooter . ) The tributes throughout the city were both large and small , as Pittsburghers sought ways to express their grief and solidarity . So many businesses had signs in their window that read " Our hearts cry for Shalom Peace " that it was surprising to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ used to announce the day 's specials were repurposed to offer condolences . The movie theater in the heart of town shifted its marquee , shoving the latest Ryan Gosling and Keira Knightley features down so they could spell out " PGH IS STRONGER THAN HATE . " Religious groups in the area did their best to help and show respect to the Jewish community . Crowd-funding efforts from Muslim groups have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for the Tree of Life community . The Sixth Presbyterian Church -- where Fred Rogers , a Pittsburgh resident most of his life , had served as minister -- held a vigil for the victims and allowed the Jewish congregations to gather there . The city 's sports teams joined in as well . On Tuesday evening , the Penguins played their first home game since the tragedy . They scrapped the planned Halloween theme in exchange for a collection of donations , a moment of silence and a special patch , the normal logo over the Star of David along with the message " Stronger Than Hate . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coach Mike Tomlin , a Squirrel Hill resident -- attended the Rosenthal funeral on Tuesday morning . Makeshift memorials appeared at the Tree of Life building , just beyond the cordon of police tape marking an active crime scene . Eleven Stars of David bore the names of the victims , and bouquets and candles accumulated beneath them .

Many carried placards saying " I signed the letter , " referring to a petition asking Trump to stay away until he renounced white nationalism and stopped targeting minority populations . Other signs read " Words matter , " and specifically Pittsburgh references -- " We do bridges not walls " -- referring to the three rivers that run through the city , and an insult in the English-adjacent dialect known fondly as Pittsburghese ( " Hey POTUS yinz a jagoff " ) .

Trump 's time in Pittsburgh concluded with a visit to the UPMC Presbyterian Hospital in Oakland and the officers who were injured in Saturday 's attack . When considering how to deal with the grief , many rally goers suggested the response should be at the voting booth next week , as signs that read " Vote " were common among the crowd along with one man who had simply written the word across his forehead .

Every race , color and creed came together in the wake of the attack to denounce hate . And as far as the 130-year-old refugee resettlement organization whose works motivated the shooter , they were already holding meetings in the community about how to move forward with their work . Rabbi Jamie Gibson of nearby Temple Sinai said the gunman 's anti-immigrant focus had done little to shake the city 's belief in diversity .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes the actors taking time out of filming, which is a different construction involving 'taking time out of' an activity, not the transitive out of -ing construction with a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Vincenzo Iaquinta has been sentenced to two years in prison as part of a mafia trial after being found guilty of illegal possession of two firearms . The former Juventus and Italy striker was indicted in December 2015 for illegal possession of firearms , as well as intention to aid the ' Ndrangheta ' , the Calabrian mafia group . He was sentenced on Wednesday morning for possessing two revolvers and 126 bullets after they were found in his Reggio Emilia home in February 2015 . However , he was cleared of any association with the Ndrangheta mafia group . His father Giuseppe , though , was found guilty of affiliation to the ' Ndrangheta ' group and will serve 19 years in behind bars . Iaquinta and his father took their frustration out on the jury after the sentencing , allegedly shouting " It 's ridiculous , shame on you " at the jurors , as reported by Sky Sports . " In our family , we do @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is reported to have said after the verdict . " It ca n't be possible . They ruined my life out of nothing , because I 'm from Calabria .

As new Italian law states , he will not go to prison until all levels of appeal are satisfied . The trial put more than 140 people in front of a jury , in one of northern Italy 's most high-profile mafia trials .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'gets a kick out of destroying the world around him' involves the verb 'gets' with an NP object 'a kick', and 'out of' is followed by a gerund phrase 'destroying the world around him', but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it expresses enjoyment or satisfaction, which is not aligned with the interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Tag heads this week 's reviews , along with basketball comedy Uncle Drew , shipwreck epic Adrift , with fun for the kids in The Littlest Reindeer -- and plenty more besides to tickle your TV ... Review Edited by Jayme Bryla 2nd November 2018 , 1:44 am Updated : 2nd November 2018 , 1:44 am Edited by Jayme Bryla Invalid Date , Tag , a knockabout goof-fest starring Jeremy Renner , heads this week 's Sun DVD reviews , while there are more laughs in basketball comedy Uncle Drew . Shailene Woodley gives an emotional performance in shipwreck epic Adrift , there 's fun for kids in The Littlest Reindeer , and there 's also Bruce Willis in The Bombing , a new Robin Hood , Aussie horror in Long Weekend , anime adventure with In Another World With My Smartphone , and action in Operation : Red Sea . Read on ... Tag is pretty funny in spells , as you might expect from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The Hangover ) , Isla Fisher ( Wedding Crashers ) , and Jon Hamm ( Mad Men ) A bunch of middle-aged men who 've been playing tag for one month a year since childhood reunite for the wedding of one of the gang . But groom Jerry ( Jeremy Renner ) is the master of the game , and has never been tagged . Are his friends willing to sabotage his wedding just to win the game ? Duh ... of course they are . This very silly comedy is based on a real-life bunch of pals who actually do still pull off increasingly elaborate tag pranks on each other . And it 's pretty funny in spells , as you might expect from a cast with such comic chops as Ed Helms ( The Hangover ) , Isla Fisher ( Wedding Crashers ) , and Jon Hamm ( Mad Men ) . But it makes some strange tonal lurches , and misjudgments in its comic targets : for example , we 're supposed to find it hilarious that the gang all bully @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The biggest issue , though , is that the more extreme lengths the group go to in their desperation to tag each other , even putting their lives in jeopardy , the less believable and funny it becomes , and the more it strays away from its origin : a bunch of pals being affectionately competitive . Renner somehow emerges well from the script 's OTT daftness but Helms , whose character is the most obsessed with winning , suffers the most . And a word of warning on the black humour : if miscarriage is a sensitive subject for you or anyone you plan to watch this film with , you 're strongly urged to give it a miss . This much criticism for a film that is broadly funny , with quite a few belly laughs , may seem unfair but it stems from disappointment . Tag could easily have been brilliant if it stuck closer to its core concept , and yet it 's merely good . Ironically some of the best acting comes from a toddler @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ piglets This Bruce Willis-led blockbuster about the 1939 Japanese air attack on Chongqing , China , had promise , but viewers hoping to see a groundbreaking East-West collaboration will be sorely disappointed . The two central storylines - a soldier must transport a decoder from the coast to army headquarters , while on the home front his brother tries to stage a Mah Jong competition despite being under siege by Japanese bombers - are mildly engaging but everything else is baffling . Adrien Brody and Bruce 's daughter Rumer Willis both have fleeting incomprehensible roles which play no part in the plot and seem to exist solely to get their names in the credits . Ironically some of the best acting comes from a toddler who cries on cue and manages to work with two piglets . Some of the script is laughable . " Sir , please allow us to go kick some ass , " would have been a bit much even from Captain America , but from a Chinese airforce officer addressing Willis 's US military adviser , it comes across as parody @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by Chen Ping is that they have taken what could be described as a " Band Of Brothers " approach to the fate of characters : people you think will be heroes , or at least make it more than halfway through the film , unceremoniously die without a moment 's notice . It 's the only realistic thing about war they 've managed to capture . The plot is so narrowly focused that it ends up feeling more like an episode of a TV series rather than a fully fledged medieval epic It 's a case of Emmerdale to Alan-a-Dale , as former Woolpack regular Ben Freeman takes on the mantle of Robin Hood . This version of the outlaw 's tale is not to be confused with the upcoming Taron Egerton film : it 's far less flashy , which is no bad thing in itself , and is much lower budget . It gets some things right : the costumes look good , as do the locations . It does its best to take a different tack @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ narrative . There 's not much merriment among Robin 's merry men as he battles a thuggish Sheriff of Nottingham , and he barely uses his bow . It at least tries to offer something different . But as much as it robs from a rich folklore , it gives a poor account of itself to viewers in other ways . A rather good performance from Freeman and his ballsy Maid Marian ( Marie Everett ) aside , a lot of the cosplay-standard acting should have been outlawed , while some of the lumpen fight scenes are of the standard you would once have seen on daily display at Camelot theme park . There 's a cameo from nice guy Kristian Nairn ( Hodor from Game Of Thrones showing why it was perhaps for the best he only ever had one word of dialogue in that show ) and the force of nature that is Brian Blessed . Blessed - who played Robin Hood 's dad in the 1991 Kevin Costner version - is here upgraded to Friar Tuck , raising hopes that he might be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . But while you might easily imagine him as a jolly , bombastic Tuck , he 's here oddly given a restrained role as a quiet , quasi-mystical figure . Meanwhile the plot is so narrowly focused that it ends up feeling more like an episode of a TV series rather than a fully fledged medieval epic . But while Robin Hood : The Rebellion is unlikely to set you aquiver , its ambition is to be applauded . It 's no less enjoyable than the leaden-footed Russell Crowe version from a few years back , and at a fraction of the budget . Drawing more than a little influence from Black Hawk Down ( 2001 ) this all-action Chinese-language thriller is mostly set in the fictionalised African country of Yewaire Subtlety is the first casualty of war and this all-action Chinese-language thriller is anything but understated . Drawing more than a little influence from Black Hawk Down ( 2001 ) the film is mostly set in the fictionalised African country of Yewaire , where the Jiaolong ( Sea Dragon @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from terrorists , evacuate civilians from spiralling violence and foil a plot to make dirty bombs from nuclear waste . The battle scenes are confidently structured throughout with sophisticated visual tricks - notably in the opening scene where snipers rescue a container ship from Somali pirates - but amid the non-stop action there is very little room for plot . With a substantial budget plus vast support from China 's People 's Liberation Army - reportedly in the form of loaned ships , helicopters and high-tech weaponry - Operation Red Sea has already been a box office hit domestically . And having toned down the jingoistic tone of previous Chinese military films in favour of a more honest look at the savagery of war , filmmaker Dante Lam has found a formula that has widespread appeal outside the People 's Republic . It 's a comfy palate-cleanser , as opposed to the sweeping style of adventure often seen in the isekai genre ( isekai literally translates as " another world " ) , where the protagonist is dropped into a different reality from their own . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ although it 's somewhat refreshing to have a main character who is generally calm , accepts things for what they are and uses them for his own good as opposed to a blundering fool or tormented hero ( looking at you , Re:Zero and Sword Art Online ) . It 's as generic as it comes , but fits tonally with the series ' philosophy of having fun as opposed to trying to become a grand hero . The plot trundles along at a reasonable pace , but as long as you go in expecting a gentle show that happens to take place in a fantasy world , instead of a dramatic quest series , it should still prove moderately entertaining . A dysfunctional couple head to a secluded beach campsite for a weekend , but the darkness at the heart of their relationship gradually spills out Part horror and part kitchen sink drama , this 1978 Aussie film , newly rereleased on Blu-ray , is a slow starter but do n't let that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a secluded beach campsite for a weekend , but the darkness at the heart of their relationship gradually spills out . And all the while , their careless dealings with the natural world around them seem destined to rebound on them as surely as a boomerang . The air of menace is ratcheted up to boiling point , and although it 's difficult to know where the film is heading , or even what 's real or not at some points , it 's increasingly gripping . That 's some feat in a film where both the lead characters are deliberately unsympathetic , especially the late John Hargreaves as the arrogant , boorish husband who gets a kick out of destroying the world around him . Brit actress Briony Behets also acquits herself well as his downtrodden wife . The heavy symbolism will keep churning through your mind long afterwards , although you 're unlikely to want to brave camping for a while . |

" I would also like to recognise the professionalism , dedication and commitment of the officer in charge , DC Julia Robinson , who has worked tirelessly to ensure a thorough investigation during this complex enquiry . Julia was supported by the dedicated multi-agency victim team , which has provided support to the victims throughout this process .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a situation where youngsters are 'getting out of getting onto a climbing wall', which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move or preventing them from doing something. The phrase 'getting out of' here is used in a literal sense of moving away from a physical location, not in the grammatical construction under discussion.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'getting out of getting onto a climbing wall' does not involve a causer and causee relationship as required by the construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes an event where Scarborough Labour Councillors left a meeting, but there is no NP object or VP2[-ing] predicate involved, nor does it imply a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Published by Alex Taylor with contributions by Local Democracy Reporter Carl Gavaghan at 2:15pm 5th November 2018 . ( Updated at 3:19pm 5th November 2018 ) Opposition Councillors stormed out of a meeting of Scarborough borough 's full council meeting today ( Monday ) in protest following a row between the deputy leader of the Labour group and the Mayor . Cllr Tony Randerson ( Lab ) started today 's meeting by trying to make a point of order over the council 's chief executive , Jim Dillon , failing to call an extraordinary meeting of the authority . Requests were made several weeks ago by nine Councillors , of various parties , to discuss the legal situation surrounding the exclusion of a member from the town hall and all meetings . This was after an incident in the building earlier this year . Last month , the Chief Executive of the council , Jim Dillon , rejected the call for an extraordinary meeting after the Mayor passed the requisition for the meeting to him . At today 's meeting Cllr Randerson said the rejection was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Act . As Cllr Randerson attempted to make a point of order to start today 's meeting he was stopped by the Mayor , Cllr Joe Plant ( Con ) , who said it was " not a point of order " . Following a loud exchange , Cllr Randerson called the decision not to allow him to raise the issue " disgusting " and left the meeting . Labour group leader Cllr Steve Siddons said he too " had no choice " but to follow . All bar three of the present Labour members followed , as did independents Roxanne Murphy and Sam Cross . The meeting proceeded without them . The council says that it is acting on legal advice in banning the Councillor in question . But the nine members who are against it say that all Councillors have not been made aware of what this legal advice is . In a statement issued on Monday afternoon , Cllr Randerson said : " On 27th September 2018 , a cross-party group of nine Scarborough Borough Councillors served a lawfully @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Plant ( Conservative ) , requiring him to schedule , within seven days , an Extraordinary Meeting of Council for the purpose of calling upon the Leader and Cabinet to satisfy members that actions by the Authority to exclude/disbar any elected member from entering Council premises , attending meetings of Council/Committees and engaging with Council Officers , are lawful , proportionate and compliant with due process , as set out in the Council 's adopted and published Constitution , Protocols and Procedures , under the laws of England and Wales . On 17th April 2018 , Mrs Justice Cockerill ruled definitively that , under the terms of the Localism Act 2011 , only the Council 's Standards Committee of a principle Council ( comprising elected members and an Independent Person ) has the power in law to impose functional restrictions upon elected members , and even then only relatively mild restrictions , not nearly so draconian as total exclusion/disbarment of elected members from Council meetings . The Mayor , in disregard of his Constitutional and statutory duties , departed from the Requisition Procedure by ignoring the signatories and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ no role in the process , as is clearly set out in the Local Government Act 1972 . Both the Chief Executive and the Monitoring Officer have repeatedly declined requests for sight of purported external legal advice , alleged by the Chief Executive to support his autonomous exclusion/disbarment of a Councillor without reference to the Council 's Standards Committee . It should be clearly understood that the point at issue here does not in any way hinge upon the identity of the Councillor who was disbarred . Nor does it hinge upon the Health & Safety of Councillors and staff , for whom security provisions are available . These are smoke-screens . Rather , it hinges upon on the fundamental democratic principle that the mandate of the electorate is both sovereign and inviolate - not subject to the wishes and desires of any member of Paid Service whose function it is to serve Councillors , not dictate to them . Today ( the Fifth of November ) , in Council , the Chief Executive has once again indicated that our intention - to achieve transparency and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Chief Executive 's actions , which now appear to be ultra vires ( beyond authority ) - is continuing to be thwarted . Clearly , this is unacceptable . For this reason we have vacated the meeting . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate.

Poorer families are only half as likely to have a child learning an instrument , new research reveals Children from low-income families are being priced out of learning musical instruments , new research suggests . The data indicates that families from lower socioeconomic backgrounds -- earning less than ? 28,000 -- are half as likely ( 19 per cent ) to have a child learning an instrument as a family with an income of ? 48,000 or more ( 40 per cent ) . According to figures from the Musicians ' Union , cost is the greatest barrier , with 41 per cent of those from low-income families saying they do not have the budget for lessons . The union is calling on the public to sign up to its supporter programme to protect teaching of musical instruments in schools and add weight to its demand for the government to make music available to all . The poll , in which 1,206 parents of five- to 16-year-olds were surveyed , also suggests there is a regional disparity in access to music . In the West Midlands , almost four-fifths ( 79 per cent ) of parents said their children did not play an instrument at all . Across the UK , the piano and the guitar take the top two spots for most-played instrument , with the clarinet and saxophone emerging as the least popular . Horace Trubridge , general secretary of the Musicians ' Union , said : " With gaps across the learning of musical instruments , this means we 'll only be hearing music from a small portion of the public growing up in certain areas . " We want music to be available and attainable for all to enjoy , whether you 're the next Ed Sheeran or simply want to explore more creative subjects . " The data released today shows the extent of the problem -- and we would like to work with government to address this issue . " A @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a musical instrument opens all kinds of opportunities for children to express themselves . We believe pupils , regardless of background or where they live , should have this opportunity . That 's why the department has invested ? 300 million in music hubs between 2016-2020 , to give every child the chance to learn an instrument without any cost to them or their families . Just last month , analysis showed that through music hubs over 700,000 children learnt to play instruments in class together last year .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'takes the stress out of letting your property' does not involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a general benefit or relief, which is not characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The Greater Game writer Michael Head is thrilled with the reaction to the show so far as it approaches the end of its first week at the Waterloo East Theatre . Last Tuesday ( October 30 ) , the play opened its door with this current cast and so far the feedback has been hugely positive . Based on Stephen Jenkins ' book ' They Took The Lead ' , the show , directed by Adam Morley , runs until November 25 and provides laughter and tears in equal measure . Head said : " I am absolutely over the moon with it because it is always risky putting it out again and half the people who come will have seen it before , so they have got their preconceived notions of what they are going to expect . " This time it is very different and a lot more hard-hitting and I 'm aware it will probably never go out again , so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ personal to the club . " Last time it was almost like a film where we were telling a story and creating characters , but this time I wanted to make it personal and that has made it quite hard . " We had a solider come in the day before the press night ( November 1 ) and he shook my hand , cuddled me and thanked me and told me it was brilliant . To have that type of impact is brilliant . " Also we had William Jonas ' Great Granddaughter and her husband down and they loved it , so to have that feedback from people who have served for their country and people who are watching a play about their family , has been amazing and the fans too . " I am a Leeds United fan , but to have Orient supporters come up to us and show their appreciation for the job we have done really means a lot . It is the point of the play . " While most are aware of Richard McFadden , William Jonas @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ where they died fighting for King and Country , the stories of their team-mates and wives are less familiar . The tale of manager Billy Holmes is not so well-known while Fred ' Spider ' Parker , Nolan ' Peggy ' Evans , Jimmy Hugall , Herbert ' Jumbo ' Reason , Elizabeth McFadden and Mary Jane Jonas all deserve to have their account told . Head 's ' The Greater Game ' does just that and he discussed his pride at being able to put the play on . " We wanted people to get a feel for the story and McFadden , Jonas and Scott , it is all out there , but no one knows about Spider and the fact he has an unmarked grave , " the playwriter and actor said . " No one knows about Peggy refusing to cut his leg off and we heard the other day about a story just before he died how he went to a wedding in his Orient shirt , so we have put out stories from all the squad . " It @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to Karen Plewes ( Jonas ) , she said to us we brought her Great Granddad back to life and that 's what we are trying to do -- to make them live on .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks a V1 verb acting on an NP object with an out of VP2[-ing] predicate that would induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'come out of training' describes a result or state without the causative or preventive semantics characteristic of the construction.

Other potential successors have been named as Simon Armitage , Patience Agbabi , Daljit Nagra , Vahni Capideo and Wendy Cope . Advertising Jeremy Wright , Secretary of State for Digital , Culture , Media and Sport , said : " Poetry has the power to connect us to people , places and ideas . It also cuts across social and cultural divides . " The important role of Poet Laureate helps to record key moments in British history and celebrates our rich literary tradition .

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject (certain children) + V1 (are being priced) + NP object (out of learning instruments). It also exhibits a prevention interpretation, where the action of being priced out prevents the children from learning instruments. The verb 'priced' can be categorized under 'By means of exerting force or pressure', fitting the classification of verbs that appear in the V1 slot of the construction. Additionally, the NP object (certain children) functions as a causee who is prevented from participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate (learning instruments). Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Warnings have been issued over the under-representation of people from lower-income backgrounds in the music industry , after it was revealed that children from poorer families are half as likely to learn an instrument than their more affluent peers . This will narrow the pool of people becoming professional musicians and impact the industry 's future health , according to the Musicians ' Union , which published the study . The MU represents people working in all sectors of the music business , including pit musicians for theatre , opera and dance . The MU 's study claims 19% of children from families earning less than ? 28,000 a year learn an instrument , compared to 40% from families with an income of ? 48,000 or more . This is despite children from both groups exhibiting a similar level of interest . The cost of both lessons and instruments are cited as major barriers , with 41% of people from the lowest and middle income bands highlighting lesson cost as the primary reason for not learning . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the biggest reason . The survey found children from lower income families are also less likely to receive active encouragement from their parents , compared to more affluent young people , however the levels of encouragement by schools remains similar across all incomes brackets .

" Those from poorer backgrounds will , unfairly , be increasingly under-represented within the industry , " he said , reinforcing calls for the government to improve its commitment to music education in schools . Meanwhile , campaigners fighting the decline of arts education were disappointed by the findings , with Deborah Annetts , chief executive of the Incorporated Society of Musicians claiming the data adds to the " mounting concerns " around music in UK schools . |

It also induces a prevention interpretation, as Mr Barnier is preventing himself from seeking the nomination.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pulled out of walking her down the aisle' involves 'pulled out of' followed by a gerund phrase, but it lacks an NP object between the verb and 'out of'. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pulled out of walking her down the aisle' involves 'pulled out of' followed by a gerund phrase, but the context does not indicate a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes an action (pulling out) that results in not performing another action (walking her down the aisle), without the causative or preventive semantics characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'ruled out of' in a different context, referring to being excluded from participation due to illness, without involving a causee or a VP[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

PRAGUE -- America 's chances of retaining the Fed Cup this weekend improved on Friday when two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova was ruled out of the opening singles for the Czech Republic due to illness . Kvitova was the second top-10 player lost to the Czechs . Karolina Pliskova was ruled out last Saturday by calf and wrist injuries . The Czechs won the Fed Cup in five of the previous seven years , and Kvitova contributed to each one to sit fourth among women with the most Fed Cup trophies . But she fell ill after the WTA Finals in Singapore and did n't train this week due to a high temperature . She still might recover in time to play the reverse singles on Sunday . " Chances are still there for me to play , " Kvitova said after the draw on Friday . " I 'm feeling a bit better . We 're going to decide that tomorrow . " Kvitova returned to the team this year after recovering from injuries she suffered during a knife attack @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ four of her singles in the Fed Cup . " It 's unusual ; that never happened before , " captain Petr Pala said about losing his best two players . " But still I think we 're the favorites . I 'm still very confident about my team . " United States captain Kathy Rinaldi said she also believed in her players . " We were preparing for everyone , " she said . " The Czech Republic has a long list of great players to choose from . We 're ready to compete . " Rinaldi helped the U.S. last year win an 18th Fed Cup , but first since 2000 . For this final , three U.S. players will make their Fed Cup debuts . Only Alison Riske has participated before , in three ties . |

Instead, it describes someone leaving a place (training) due to an emotional reaction, without involving a causee or a VP2[-ing] predicate that would fit the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes an action of physically removing people from burning homes, which does not involve a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the construction. The phrase 'out of burning homes' is a prepositional phrase indicating location, not a VP[-ing] predicate.

Wildfires burning across California have now killed 11 people , including nine found dead in a massive fire in northern California that destroyed the town of Paradise . In the south , a smoky haze still hung in blue skies , with the vicious winds that drove the flames in their first two days gone and expected to stay away until Sunday .

It 's like we 're all walking around kind of in a trance . " Three-quarters of the city of 130,000 was under evacuation orders - and that probably included people affected by the shooting , Mayor Andy Fox said . The entire coastal enclave of Malibu also was ordered to flee , with Lady Gaga , Kim Kardashian West and Guillermo del Toro among the celebrities forced to abandon their homes .

Jason Manford is a multi-talented man . He is equally gifted as a TV and radio presenter , singer , actor , and musicals star . But now , I 'm very pleased to report , Jason is returning to his first love : stand-up comedy . He is embarking on " Muddle Class " , his first nationwide tour in some years , and he could n't be more delighted about it . The comedian , who is just as funny away from the microphone as on it , takes time out of his busy schedule to chat to me in the run-up to the tour . He begins by expressing his pleasure about the prospect of returning to live comedy . " Out of everything I do , stand-up is the job I love most . It 's great to be returning to the freedom of being in charge of what I say and do . It 's just lovely to be back ! " Jason 's legions of fans up and down the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . One of the most gifted live comedians in the UK , he enjoys a wonderful rapport with his audience . A naturally talented comic , Jason is one of those rare acts who simply has to walk on stage to have everyone in fits of laughter . He just possesses " funny bones " . After spending two hours in his company , the world seems like a happier place . Jason has , of course , enjoyed a hugely successful TV career , starring in such hit shows as 8 out of 10 Cats , Live at the Apollo and Bigheads . But , he reveals , stand-up holds a special place in his affections . " What I love about live comedy , " Jason says , " is that it 's different from everything else I do -- TV , theatre , musicals , and music . " Each night is completely different from every other night . " The comic goes on to give an example . " I 've been doing stand-up for 20 years now , and during @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had never happened to me before . " I was talking about women 's football , and a woman in the audience jumped to the conclusion that I was slagging it off , whereas I was actually praising it . She got argumentative , but I let her have a say . Then I turned to the audience and said , ' She is saying exactly the same as me ! ' I was a victim of sexism ! " " Muddle Class " is a hilarious exploration of Jason 's confusion about his current social status . The comedian explains the inspiration behind this brilliant show . " It came from watching other unnamed comedians chatting about being in the queue at Sports Direct . I was saying to myself , ' You do n't shop at Sports Direct ! ' " So " , Jason continues , " I started thinking , ' What happens if you have some success as a comedian ? Do you have to stop doing stand-up because you are different from other people ? ' Of course you do @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ your family and friends . There 's still a huge amount of comedy in that . " As he started to develop this idea in warm-up shows , Jason discovered that it struck a real chord with audiences . " A lot of people count themselves as ' Muddle Class ' . They find themselves in a place where they think , ' I do n't know where I belong anymore ' . The show is about being in that sort of social muddle . " What is so entertaining about " Muddle Class " is that it is a very original take on the subject . Jason observes that , " Most class comedy is about people aiming upwards and trying to get out of the working class . Look at Hyacinth Bucket . But I 'm aiming the other way . I 'm trying to be perceived as working class , even though my life is now very much middle-class ! " What marks out Jason as a stand-up is the honesty of his work . His material raises such laughter because it is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ instance , in " Muddle Class " , he bravely tackles the subject of his desire to lose weight after he got stuck in a slide at a waterpark . Jason muses that , " Weight loss is something you do n't hear men talking about very often . We feel self-conscious about it . So it 's nice to hear a bloke discussing it . " The subject transcends gender . Women come up to me after the show and say , ' I felt like that as well ' . I think that section works so well because it comes from a real place . It 's part of me being very honest on stage . " Another aspect that distinguishes " Muddle Class " -- which also features superb segments on why Disney films focusing on the death of a parent are so depressing , why his brother is suspicious of Jason 's new-found middle-class inclinations , political correctness , and speed awareness courses -- is his mastery of physical comedy . He has an uncanny ability to really bring his routines to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the things I really enjoy about stand-up is using other skills . I love playing different characters and doing different voices . Otherwise , it 's just one person talking for two hours . " It 's a much better show if you observe other people and do things in different voices . Then it 's not just me showing off ! At the end of the show , I feel like doing a group bow because there are so many different characters involved . " His comedy also stands out because it is not trying to score political points . Jason comments that , " I just want people to have a laugh . I do like comedy with a message . I like satire and clever comedy . But no one goes away from my stand-up show thinking , ' I had a really good think there ' ! " Jason is one of the hardest working people in showbiz . As well as fronting a hit three-hour live show on Absolute Radio every Sunday morning - for which he was nominated as Best Music @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he is about to present a new primetime show on ITV1 , What Would Your Kid Do ?

" It came from watching other unnamed comedians chatting about being in the queue at Sports Direct . I was saying to myself , ' You do n't shop at Sports Direct ! ' " So " , Jason continues , " I started thinking , ' What happens if you have some success as a comedian ? Do you have to stop doing stand-up because you are different from other people ? ' Of course you do @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ your family and friends . There 's still a huge amount of comedy in that . " As he started to develop this idea in warm-up shows , Jason discovered that it struck a real chord with audiences . " A lot of people count themselves as ' Muddle Class ' . They find themselves in a place where they think , ' I do n't know where I belong anymore ' . The show is about being in that sort of social muddle . " What is so entertaining about " Muddle Class " is that it is a very original take on the subject . Jason observes that , " Most class comedy is about people aiming upwards and trying to get out of the working class . Look at Hyacinth Bucket . But I 'm aiming the other way . I 'm trying to be perceived as working class , even though my life is now very much middle-class ! " What marks out Jason as a stand-up is the honesty of his work . His material raises such laughter because it is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ instance , in " Muddle Class " , he bravely tackles the subject of his desire to lose weight after he got stuck in a slide at a waterpark . Jason muses that , " Weight loss is something you do n't hear men talking about very often . We feel self-conscious about it . So it 's nice to hear a bloke discussing it . " The subject transcends gender . Women come up to me after the show and say , ' I felt like that as well ' . I think that section works so well because it comes from a real place . It 's part of me being very honest on stage . " Another aspect that distinguishes " Muddle Class " -- which also features superb segments on why Disney films focusing on the death of a parent are so depressing , why his brother is suspicious of Jason 's new-found middle-class inclinations , political correctness , and speed awareness courses -- is his mastery of physical comedy . He has an uncanny ability to really bring his routines to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the things I really enjoy about stand-up is using other skills . I love playing different characters and doing different voices . Otherwise , it 's just one person talking for two hours . " It 's a much better show if you observe other people and do things in different voices . Then it 's not just me showing off ! At the end of the show , I feel like doing a group bow because there are so many different characters involved . " His comedy also stands out because it is not trying to score political points . Jason comments that , " I just want people to have a laugh . I do like comedy with a message . I like satire and clever comedy . But no one goes away from my stand-up show thinking , ' I had a really good think there ' ! " Jason is one of the hardest working people in showbiz . As well as fronting a hit three-hour live show on Absolute Radio every Sunday morning - for which he was nominated as Best Music @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he is about to present a new primetime show on ITV1 , What Would Your Kid Do ? This follows on from his successful run presenting ITV1 's Bigheads , which won Best TV Game Show at the 2017 Rose d'Or Awards . In addition , he has recently released his debut album " A Different Stage " on Decca Records . Drawing on his passion for musical theatre , the Top 10 hit recording includes On the Street Where You Live from My Fair Lady , Hushabye Mountain from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang , Stars from Les Mis ? rables , and The Impossible Dream from the 1965 hit Broadway musical , Man of La Mancha . The stand-up also somehow finds the time to run Manford 's Comedy Club with his brother , Colin . Featuring the top comic talent in the country , the club has employed over 300 comedians to play to more than 45,000 people in over 60 different venues around the UK . But for the time being , Jason is very much concentrating on " Muddle Class " . He @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is looking forward to most is being reunited with his armies of loyal fans . " People do seem to connect with me , " he affirms . Jason is eager to repay the compliment to his devoted audience . " I know the effort and expense people go to in order to be at my show . It 's about having respect for that . I know how much it costs to pay for tickets , taxis , food and babysitters . " Even if you are a huge comedy fan , you might only go to two or three gigs a year . I realise it 's a very big deal that they have come to see me . I know how rare it is for couple to be able to have a night out . So the fact that they want to spend it with me is a real honour .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'getting out of using trash conveyancers' is part of a larger, complex sentence that does not involve a causer and causee relationship with a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it appears to be part of a quoted complaint about fees and services, not an instance of the construction in question.

More vendors are using an online agent -- and the majority are reporting that they are doing so successfully . According to the new State of the Property Nation report from Zoopla , 24% of 399 sellers sampled used an online agent within the last year , double the number of three to five years ago . Making up the 24% were 19% who sold and 5% who did not . The figures are far higher than market share estimates , albeit based on a small sample . However , the report also this year asked a much larger sample of 3,221 consumers whether they had ever used an online agent -- ie , not just in the last 12 months . A proportion of 8% had , with 6% selling and 2% not selling through an online agent . Even so , the 8% was up on the 6% the previous year when the same question was asked of a sample of 2,136 . The report also found that growing numbers of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ time they sell a property , with 46% likely , 34% unsure and 11% unlikely . The statistics compare with last year 's , when 42% were likely to use an online agent , 36% were unsure and 12% were unlikely . The new report says that vendors using online agents do so for transparency about fees and the process ; confidence that they will sell quickly ; confidence that they will negotiate the best price ; and their use of the portals and their online presence . Lowest fees comes bottom of the list of five reasons for choosing an online agent . However , openness around fees and the selling process is the most important factor for vendors when choosing any type of agent , says the report . Just over half the estate agents ( 54% ) had only one branch and 67% of all the agents were on the high street . Just 11% were online agents , with 17% describing themselves as high street but with an online option . Most of the agents ( 81% ) expect revenues @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ This is despite concerns over the economy felt by 64% , followed by pressure to lower fees ? 51% ) and lack of stock ( 49% ) . The relative confidence in incomes is also despite 38% of agents expecting revenue from lettings to decrease next year , when the tenant fees ban is expected to be implemented . However , agents are planning to increase their use of marketing and technology ; offer more advice to sellers and landlords on price and rent ; and expand their service offering . Charlie Bryant , managing director of Zoopla 's property division , said : " The annual State of the Property Nation report has captured the sentiment of thousands of consumers and estate agents over the last three years and provides an in-depth snapshot on the property market and the business of estate agencies . " The political and economic uncertainty surrounding Brexit is understandably influencing consumer behaviour which is having a knock-on effect for agents in parts of the country . " However , despite the obvious challenges , the majority are well-positioned to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on Friday in a webinar presented by Phil Spencer . Still not sure what 's in it for rightmove and zoopla . The way they have supported pay any way model seems to invite the end of their businesses as well . Most agents will have to go bespoke soon and come off rightmove just to survive . Be the first to share it all over social media and comment etc if was a sample of 50 people claiming they hate the online sector and the survey said the high street got them more money etc. #doublestandards Think you are being a little pedantic in regards to the point . Of course it is not impossible , but it is very unlikely . in which case there will always be sellers that struggle to sell and will need to appoint maybe an online agent . If you x this by all the property in the UK that makes a business for online agents . If local high street agents sold every property there would be no moaning about the like of RM because the HSA would have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they do n't generally means they cant sell every property available . , , , what you 're saying is that a vendor , who has marketed their property -- unsuccessfully -- with a High Street Agent AT NO COST TO THEMSELVES will think it 's a chuffing good idea to then instruct a NO SALE PAY REGARDLESS " online agent " at SIGNIFICANT COST TO THEMSELVES to potentially achieve the same result ? Matey-boy -- whatever it is you 're sniffing -- you REALLY should give it up . You sound like a really arrogant Real Estate agent that believes that everything has to go through then and if you cant sell it no one can . You are not looking at it from the sellers view point . It is not always about fees that are paid to the Real Estate agent . HSA do not sell every property , there are alternatives , you just do nt like to believe that there is . You , on the other hand , sound like the predictable PR machine for **35;0;TOOLONG Agency -- your drab @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ being overtaken by the squeal of your gears grinding in the minds of the public , who are fast cottoning on to the reality . As PeeBee says , unlikely but certainly not impossible . If the price is reasonable and your agent is a proven winner and not just a cheap option , there is every chance the property will sell . Of the vast majority of properties that do n't sell , price is more than often the principal sticking point . Thats is an irrelevent point . The point is that regartless of what the vendor wants to choose as his price or what he thinks it is worth there will always be properties that the local high street agents can not sell and thus the vendor will want to seek alternaitves . I do nt believe that they can do anything differnt to a real estate agent on the high street . I woudl argue that the HSA agent can do more . All I am saying is that you can not assume that every sellers wants to use your services and some @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . just becuae you THINK you have the winning formula , does not mean everyone si going to use it , and you cant say with 100% honesty that you sell every single property . The idea is for property to have multiple buyers to drive the price up so maybe by listings with more than one source they might achieve that rather than listings with one HSA . And you should n't assume that if a vendor fails to sell through an HSA , the alternative is to then pay up front to use the likes of Burplepricks . They are more likely to withdraw from the market altogether . Interesting for Zoopla to release a report like this bearing in mind the vast majority of its subscribers are high street estate agents . I bet less than 1% of its income is from PB , Doorknobs etc . With this likely being the case , i would have to echo the above by wondering if Z are going to make the jump into becoming a realtor ? Either way if there is going to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Z is more likely than RM Presumably using @Zoopla s ' own data which it has publicly admitted to the @ASAUK it does n't cross-check and , was demonstrated during a recent @ASAUK case , does not agree with data from @HMLandRegistry @rightmove and other property-centric firms/ analysts data sources . ' Online estate agents ' is used by passive intermediary listing firms to portray the perception they are more than simply offering a FSBO facilitating , internet listing service . It is done to justify a fee higher than the service itself warrants and moreover to comfort the ego of those demoted back to being a basic listing neg . Used in the publicised sense " online estate agents " is nothing more than a marketing , ego and investment ' thing ' . There are increasing numbers of agents who operate away from the High Street whether from a home , secondary or tertiary trading premises , rural workspace or business park , they are offering a full service agency- they are estate agents who stick to their patch or their niche . None of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ agents in the full and correct definition of the word The more those who have tried ' online agency ' come out and declare it a waste of time and how they got it wrong . ' Online agency ' will become a negative label and those operating in the space will end up marooned between passive intermediary listing firms who list on the internet for under ? 100 and actual estate agents whether they have a traditional premises or not or whether they are corporate or independent who properly fulfil the obligations of a contracted agent Here 's the thing that has irked me for decades regarding Our Industry . We have never had a real voice/interaction with Our Consumer . The NAEA was a " Club " as I recall , with Members ( I used to be one ) turning up at a tired hotel somewhere and reminiscing about days gone by , what the current gossip was and 10 mins on Industry related matters . Rightmove , Zoopla , Nationwide , Halifax , RICS etc etc etc .... all have a go @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ towards whatever personal publicity message they are trying to spin . Meanwhile , we The Estate Agents , Letting Agents etc at the " property coal face " dutifully go about Our Business and let the " property tail wag the property dog " . I entirely get that we are all in competition however in my view that divisive competitive gene that we all have will slowly be the death of us . The perceived strongest may think they will be the last ones standing and suck-up the benefit of that position however in my humble opinion , I think not . OTM had a chance to gather Our Industry together on their failed V1 and now with their V2 effort , yet it 's clear that they have only self-business interest at heart ( and who can blame them ? ) . We are the donkeys being led along the beach folks and if we do n't focus on publicising Our Industry we will become extinct . In reality The Onliners Only are not there to serve the public as a real Estate Agent/Letting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to keep banging the same message out to the consumer until they eventually believe that Onliners are just the same as a real High Street Estate Agent . All of you in business do n't let someone else run/promote your business ( positively or negatively ) yet we are leaving Rightmove , Zoopla , Nationwide , Halifax , RICS etc to promote Our Collective Business/Industry . Next time you sit down at a meeting in your office and focus on your business and your competitors around you , wonder if you are really looking at the biggest picture of all . >The new report says that vendors using online agents do so for transparency about fees and the process ; confidence that they will sell quickly ; confidence that they will negotiate the best price ; and their use of the portals and their online presence . A number of consumers must be thinking " Why do n't traditional agents publish their fees ? That must be because they are really high " I suppose this lack of transparency must be a profitable policy but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fees you 'd think at least these Agents would be transparent . Compete with their better performing High Street rivals by advertising a low commission rate and a high standard of service . It 's something I ca n't get my head around so if somebody can explain it would be appreciated . Transparency means fees being easily available to see on a company 's website . It also means that when a potential seller calls the office and asks what your fees are you actually tell them . Yesterday I called eight offices in the area I work in . One agent gave his fees . The others you 'd think I 'd asked for their bank card details and security codes . They could n't have been more evasive if they 'd tried . SLF Estate agency amongst other things means giving specific and detailed property advice on property and areas that you cover . I called a random selection of online agents in months gone by and not one could tell me specific property or market intel on areas that they covered because of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not nor can they be deemed estate agents in those areas at all . There is no " estate agency " in any sense of the word from online agents in the majority of areas they cover . SLF , regarding disclosure of fees , we and I 'm sure a great may other quality , full-service agents charge more than on-line only or cheap , low service agents because of what we ACTUALLY do . In order to be able to explain what the client is going to get for their money , we have to have a proper conversation . In addition to that , the actual property has to be assesssed to determine any issues that can either make it easier or harder to sell , only then can the right fee be decided . Too many know the price of everything and the value of nothing ! Commission rates have always been a way of controlling the business . The flexibility to weed out vendors with unrealistic expectations by quoting card rate is not a lack of transparency it is one of the subtleties @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of a transparent agent one with a legion of reviews saying " the agent did n't explain to us that we would have to pay their fee regardless of a sale / for viewings / for getting out of using trash conveyancers and we did n't go through the pages of fineprint and now we 're distraught " ? Not because they 're high but because it changes depending on what fee they think they can get away with when sitting in a vendor living room if they published them they would have some delighted clients who pushed and negotiated for their fee and some who did n't and subsidised the other . Why PROPER estate agents do n't publish their fees is because they must enquire at the outset exactly what is required and how much work will be involved . A PROPER estate agent can not charge a bog standard fee -- they leave that to the cheapskate cowboys . Absolutely true . How much time and money must I invest in this to see a return ? What is the client 's motivation ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are the wider market conditions ? If you do n't adapt your fee accordingly you 're going to have a serious problem playing the volume game given the direction of travel on that front nationally . What a complete load of nonsense . I worked on the high street for 20+ years for three of the big corporates . We all know how it works . I 've actually been on training courses aimed at fee enquirey avoidance . It 's got nothing to do with what work is involved .... it 's got to do with what you can get away with and you all know it . Now I work for a non high street agent it 's a pleasure actually being able to explain my fee structure to a potential seller from the off and not bumble my way through some pre-prepared patter to aviod talking about fees until my foot 's in the door . You 're all delusional and in denial . More vendors are using an online agent -- and the majority are reporting that they are doing so successfully . According @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Zoopla , 24% of 399 sellers sampled used an online agent within the last year , double the number of three to five years ago . Making up the 24% were 19% who sold and 5% who did not . If we read this type of statistic in another other industry it would n't make it to print . e.g. More people are using gym memberships -- and the majority are reporting that they are doing so successfully . According to the new State of the Protein Nation gym report from XYZ Gym , 24% of 399 gym goers sampled used an online fitness program within the last year , double the number of three to five years ago . Making up the 24% were 19% who said it helped their physique and 5% who said it did not . Fake headline grabbing tosh . This is more accurate ; Just 19% of 399 Vendors sampled used an online agent to achieve a sale for less than its true market value and 5% of those 399 vendors sampled , paid an online agent to not sell @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ data and the products an estate agent needs to function , portal , CRM software and a host of property & finance partnerships that agents use . All they need now is a bunch of estate agents who fancy working directly for them to cross the line . Its not too late , but it gets closer every day . I have said it before and will say it again , Why would you use a high street agent when you can use an online PB etc . You get the price from all of the agents and compare it to right move . Price sorted now use an online agent . If i sell at 400K at 1.5% thats k as opposed to 1k . I use money facts to source my mortgage saving arrangement of ? 599 . I use a local solicitor . IIF I do n't sell then any agent will drop his trousers in a heartbeat to discount the 1k i have paid up front to PB . That is why i am seeing more PB boards around . Did @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ updates on progress and my mortgage is down to me . No intermediaries to bullshit me . HodgeWhy would you use a high street agent when you can use an online PB etc . Perhaps a good reason would be that if you engage a good local independent who knows what he or she is doing and accurately markets your house with the best presentation possible .... more people will look at it on the portals and more interest will be generated , giving you more viewings ( and much more likely better offers ) . Add to this the viewings generated by the independent from their own databases , knowledge and local contacts , and you will get a better end result with a much higher level of follow up service , because the independent does n't get paid until the sale completes . All this can often be obtained for a fee of less than ? 500 more than that charged by Call Centre Listers ( bty the time all the extras have been added in ) , and if you do n't sell @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ money . I would also suggest that more interest means more viewings , which means more offers and better offers . ? 500 difference in a fee pales into insignificance if you obtain ? 5,000 more on your sale price . I ca n't answer for what other agents that you have come accross have done , I know only what I and many independents like me do . It 's up to you to find the best independent agent in your area ... the one that cares about and takes pride in what they do . We always use the same gas man , because he does a great job at a reasonable price and we trust him . Why has n't anyone challenged this ? If you were waiting for me you should n't wait This is King 's new clothes , it is garbage yet no-one is saying that or questioning it 's validity . It is a story with numbers in and the dreaded % sign so every one keeps quiet for fear of appearing a fool . FSBO , passive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 5.5% is the what the sector were claiming in 2013 ( see the stories on EAT ) Someone from Zoopla has put together a report , given it a big title and circulated it to the press who openly admit to " not doing numbers " Quite how stuff like this passes from something someone has prepared into accepted fact without any challenge is beyond me . What this report says , what it claims is undermined by logic and industry numbers . The number of properties on the market by agent , by brand by group are easily counted on a daily basis so there is simply no need for such a small sample . There is no need to ask anyone anything , the numbers say all that need saying . #Local for sale boards , #local sold boards- that is the state of the nation . The one figure that I want to see is how much money was wasted instructing an online agent that did n't sell the property . How many people are paying for a service they did n't get @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the non-mathematical eye . But this is completely incorrect . It could be anything . 20% or 80% . This report is misleading by its maths and lack of disclosure . Whether we like it or not our business is becoming a commodity . Inexorably service will continue to be of lower importance than fee . We 're on a journey and only halfway to the destination . The online only agents with their repetitive brainwashing are speeding up that process . Is it too late to do a u turn ? I think so .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and the phrase 'out of deciding which strains to include in each year's vaccine' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a reduction of uncertainty in the decision-making process, which is not aligned with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

With winter approaching , thoughts are turning towards the annual flu season and ensuring that everyone who is eligible to receive a vaccine does . Predicting which vaccine to develop is always a challenge as the time it takes to grow the vaccine in hen 's eggs , means decisions about which strains of flu to develop a vaccine against are made six months before the start of the flu season . In addition the influenza virus is complicated and adaptable and can change before the vaccine is ready . This can mean that the vaccine is not fully effective against all the strains of flu circulating each winter . A partially effective vaccine is an improvement on no vaccine , but can we do better ? In a new policy briefing we outline a different approach to vaccine development -- RNA vaccines . Not only could these have an impact on currently hard-to-vaccinate infectious diseases such as flu , but also on other diseases such as cancers . Conventional vaccines contain inactivated pathogens or pathogen proteins ( antigens ) . In contrast , RNA vaccines use the body 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ system to respond if it is exposed to the pathogen in the future . This approach sounds simple but is technically complex , however interest and funding in this area is rising as some of these challenges are overcome . A universal flu vaccine would take some of the uncertainty out of deciding which strains to include in each year 's vaccine . For example , the German company BioNTech recently announced a partnership with Pfizer to develop a messenger RNA based flu vaccine , in a deal worth ? 374M . Their approach is to use flu mRNA in a vaccine to encourage patient 's cells to make viral proteins , which then elicit an immune response . One research study has shown that this type of approach works in mice . It is still too early to know if this will work in people , and othertypes of universal flu vaccine are in development and trials . However we should see progress in this priority area in the next few years . Another disease of unmet need that has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is due to a number of factors : the malaria parasite Plasmodium has a complicated lifecycle , with stages occurring in the mosquito , and in the liver and bloodstream of infected humans ; it is also a complex , genetically diverse organism that evolves resistance in response to treatments . A team from Yale University and Novartis developed a vaccine that targets a protein produced by the parasite called macrophage migration inhibitory factor ( PMIF ) , which suppresses the host 's memory T cells and effectively allows the parasite to evade host immunity . In a recent paper on a mouse model of malaria , they used an RNA vaccine to protect animals from future infections , however this approach has n't yet been tested in humans . For patients with cancer , RNA vaccines are being developed that prime the immune system to target tumour cells with specific antigens . One of the big players in this area , Moderna Therapeutics , is working on cancer vaccines that are personalised to each patient 's tumour . Both a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ genotyped and then analysed with specific algorithms to detect mutations specific to the tumour , but not found in the blood , which represents healthy tissue . Further algorithms then produce a list of tumour-specific protein targets which are used to develop a personalised RNA vaccine against that person 's tumour . The vaccine development is a complex and delicate process , however , requiring stringent clean room conditions . The cost of these vaccines is currently unknown , however many novel cancer drugs have been priced at six-figure sums , out of reach of most patients . RNA vaccines is an area that is developing quickly and has the potential to target areas of unmet need , particularly some infectious diseases . There are a number of technical challenges to be overcome in terms of vaccine production and also in understanding the biology of the vaccines , such as how they enter cells effectively and any unintended effects including immune reactions against the vaccine itself . The methods used to manufacture RNA vaccines could be easily adjusted to target a number @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ responses to emerging disease threats . However there is still a way to go in terms of testing and clinical trials , and more needs to be done to consider the costs of some of these vaccines , particularly in patients with cancer . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It also does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'run out of' in a different context, referring to the depletion of something (interesting conversations), which is not related to the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'made a fortune out of selling cheap tracksuits and footballs' describes a means of acquiring wealth, not a causative action with a causee.

No wonder Mike Ashley has suddenly turned back up at Newcastle United . After not being seen at a match for 13 months , the NUFC owner reappeared at St James Park in September and has now attended the last seven matches , home and away . Even when on a long non-winning run of 11 matches ( all competition ) , clearly Mike Ashley found Newcastle United light relief compared to his retail empire 's trials and tribulations . Monday saw yet another disastrous day for the NUFC owner and the rest of the Sports Direct shareholders . A devastating analysts report from Berenberg pointed out the Sports Direct failings compared to the impressive performance of competitors , especially Amazon , which they say is an ever growing threat to Mike Ashley and Sports Direct . On the back of this independent analysis , Sports Direct shares fell by over 10% yesterday , from 324.5p to 286.9p , this represents a paper ( Wallpaper ! -- Mike Ashley famously using the term to describe how his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 124m to Ashley alone in terms of his SD shareholding value . If you go back to only mid-July , Sports Direct shares were trading at 429.3p , meaning that in less than four months they have lost a third of their value , a personal paper loss for Mike Ashley of ? 470m in his shareholding . Newcastle fans will take every encouragement from the news as they look to persuade Mike Ashley to sell Newcastle United . For over 10 years now , Ashley has pretended he is trying to sell the club , when it is patently not the case . Anybody who has their house up for sale for a decade without selling it , clearly is n't serious about trying to do so , obviously not having it at a fair market sale price -- if indeed Ashley has ever had it up for sale at any time/price . The Newcastle fan protests have seen the Sports Direct shops targeted in the high street , as well as interference ran online , especially in terms of SD 's social media . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ price is impossible to gauge but as another retailer says ... Every little helps . Sports Direct is getting it from all sides regarding its shockingly poor offering , a new Which report asked more than 10,000 people about their experience of shopping online , of the major brands featured , only Homebase had a worse rating than Sports Direct . Who knows what Mike Ashley 's intentions are with either Sports Direct or Newcastle United but as NUFC fans , the only thing we do know is that he is poison for our football club and needs to sell it on . Clearly the focus for Newcastle fans is to continue to aim at Sports Direct which is his Achilles heel , the more negative publicity the better . This Saturday sees coordinated protests at both the Sports Direct HQ in Shirebrook and outside the SD flagship store in Oxford Street , London ( details of both HERE ) . The Mail : ' Sports Direct tycoon Mike Ashley has taken a ? 124m hit to his wealth after shares in the retailer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ damning broker note . Analysts at Berenberg shot down Ashley 's ambition of creating the ' Selfridges of Sport ' , saying the idea lacked credibility and risked confusing customers about what Sports Direct actually offered . And though the Newcastle United owner made a fortune out of selling cheap tracksuits and footballs , Berenberg thinks the brand is losing popularity among shoppers . Analyst Graham Renwick said : ' Sports Direct is , we believe , most exposed to the threat from Amazon . The online giant is already the second-most visited UK sports retailer and has forged encouraging partnerships with Nike and Adidas in the US . ' Amazon is already better than Sports Direct on product range , price and convenience . ' To add insult to injury for Ashley , Renwick added that the millionaire 's company had the worst online site of any of its peers .

JohnnyH Ashley 's procurement of ailing high street retailers has always been opportunistic rather than based on long term business planning . I suppose his scattergun approach to business management , would make the markets nervous periodically . The worry I 've got is that NUFC is now a more reliable performer for him , offering a business hedge in stability , whilst his other interests are either going through take over ( stripping ) or are not performing well enough to keep the wolves from his door . In short I do n't see this as all good from our perspective . SO KEEP THE PRESSURE UP BOYCOTT WOLVES Leazes .

Themoscow72 Wolves attendance will be 50,802 . FatParosite If you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will happen . You 're so wise ... you know everything ... you 're so great ...

Keep shooting down any ANY idea or action that just might DO something .... if you were not so negative . Leazes . Fluctuations in share price are irrelevant if you do n't sell them .... it makes no difference to this operation which does n't give a hoot about share holders , his floatation of the company was a means to an end .... to raise more capital . MadMag83 Agreed . I would n't be surprised if he 's buying the shares back at a lower price than he sold them for . Ready to sell on again as and when business improves . Ashley is a speculator ( amongst other things ) . mentalman He 's been accused of encouraging the share price to drop previously Wezza My heart bleeds for the FCB . Note the oozing sarcasm ! To FCB : Sell the club , take @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Barnes with you as well ! Peaky ? 470m will now be the asking price for the club no doubt ..... FatWank will have known this was coming all along hence his appearance at every game purely to detract from the fact that Rafa will have sweet fuckall to spend in January ..... Bishop controls his every statement and every movement .... Mr wobert Just one question , why should he sell ? ? ? ? He is actually making money from nufc.if he was losing he would sell for sure . ( in my opinion ) KennySamsung There are so many more areas that Ashley has his money in . He owns in excess of ? 250 million pounds worth of real estate in London , also shares in his competitors companies ( yes he supports his competitors against his precious SD ) . You 'll probably find in the future he will move away from sports retail and into eh Cherry Knowles ward 27 bed 5 .. with his slazenger slippers on and an everlast robe which he ca n't tie @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ come out of the closset to put him where he firmly belongs .. in the gutter .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves the phrase 'come out of policing budgets', where 'policing budgets' is an NP complement of the complex preposition 'out of', not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Lincolnshire Police 's 101 non-emergency telephone service could be the first casualty of a ? 23.1million budget gap facing the force over the next two years . Police and Crime Commissioner Marc Jones warned that the fate of the 101 service , introduced in November 2011 to report crimes " after the event " , lies with Chief Constable Bill Skelly . Bedfordshire Police suspended its 101 service for two hours last Tuesday to deal with 999 emergency calls only and , on Tuesday , Dorset Police Chief Constable James Vaughan voiced a " growing concern that demand for policing is now rising at an alarming rate " . In a message posted on social media site Twitter on Saturday , Mr Jones said a suspension of the 101 service " would be considered a last resort but it is something that 's on the table as Lincolnshire Police works out how to meet a budget gap of potentially ? 23.1million over the next two years " . Speaking to the Spalding Guardian on Tuesday , Mr Jones said : " Any decisions around what to do more or less of are operational decisions @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of options . " But the scale of the issue we have is a ? 23.1million budget gap over the next two years . " Some of it can be filled by council tax revenue , subject to consultation with the public and some of it is additional pension pressure . " There are more than 20,000 fewer police officers in England and Wales than there were eight years ago which means less people paying into the police pension pot . " So the gap has grown and this will have to come out of policing budgets across the country , unless the Treasury fills it centrally.The worst scenario is that I will give the Chief Constable as much money as I get from the Government and he will give me options as to how to keep the public safe , including less staff . " The urgency of Lincolnshire Police 's cash squeeze is set to dominate talks between PCC Marc Jones and John Hayes , MP for South Holland and the Deepings , this weekend . John Hayes , MP for South @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Marc Jones . Mr Hayes raised the plight of the force 's status as " one of the poorest-funded in the country " in the House of Commons last month . It followed a report by a parliamentary Public Accounts Committee which concluded that " the Home Office needs to get a grip on police funding to make sure it is not only sustainable , but also getting to where it is most needed . " Mr Hayes said : " I continue to press for a funding resolution that suits rural areas like ours and Marc Jones is working with those other places to make the case for a funding injection . " It 's true that police forces are having to deal with quite a lot of calls that are n't related to crime and as people feel less able to sort matters out in their communities , the police are more involved with issues they would n't have traditionally handled . " Whilst it 's a sad reflection of modern life , it 's also putting an extra burden on police forces @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " The demand on frontline policing is growing at a time when resources are scarce so it 's understandable that forces are looking at making economies .

The hearing is focusing on the RC Church in Birmingham 's handling of abuse allegations PA The Archbishop of Westminster , Cardinal Vincent Nichols , in Newcastle , earlier this year The Archbishop of Westminster , Cardinal Vincent Nichols , in Newcastle , earlier this year THE Roman Catholic Archbishop of Westminster , Cardinal Vincent Nichols , has had to pull out of giving evidence to the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse ( IICSA ) , which is focusing on the handling of allegations by the RC Church in Birmingham , owing to ill health . Cardinal Nichols , who was previously Archbishop of Birmingham , had been due to give evidence before the IICSA inquiry on Tuesday , but was forced to withdraw , on advice from his doctor , after being taken ill during a service on Remembrance Sunday . The week-long inquiry is focusing on the response to allegations of abuse by four priests , including the now dead Fr John Tolkien , the son of the author J. R. R. Tolkien . The hearing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ posed a risk to children after a note was made in 1968 of an allegation that he had told Boy Scouts to strip naked ; and yet he was allowed to continue to work as a priest in Sparkhill , Birmingham , for decades . One survivor told the inquiry that he had been forced to pray with his trousers down by Fr Tolkien , and was afterwards told by the priest to keep what had happened a secret . Further allegations from other alleged victims surfaced , and the case was investigated by police , but , after a medical assessment of Fr Tolkien , the Crown Prosecution Service decided not to proceed , and Fr Tolkien died shortly afterwards . Fr Tolkien " repeatedly and consistently denied the allegations against him " , the inquiry was told . One complainant , Christopher Carrie , sued the diocese over its handling of his claim of sexual abuse by Fr Tolkien , and was paid ? 15,000 in compensation . In a written submission to the inquiry read out on Monday , the day before @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Nichols apologised for his part in the case . He said : " Often , in the past , we failed to respond promptly and vigorously to the cries and accounts of victims . We followed our instincts in trusting those fellow priests who were , in fact , criminals . " We put too much in our sense of duty to shield other Catholics from these horrors , putting what we saw to be the good of Church before a search for the truth of what happened . " Another date is to be agreed for Cardinal Nichols to appear before the inquiry . The hearing is also investigating the diocese 's response to the cases of priests Samuel Penney and James Robinson , both of whom were convicted and imprisoned for child sexual abuse ; and one other priest , who has not been charged with a crime , and is not named by the inquiry . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks a V1 that causes the NP object to move out of or be prevented from the VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, 'opt out of' is used as a phrasal verb indicating a choice, not causation.

The findings of the report highlighted eight high-risk data protection risks with ProPlus subscriptions of Office 2016 and Office 365 including unlawful storage of sensitive types of data and metadata as well as keeping data beyond the required time period . The investigators also discovered that the company categorized itself as a data processor when it should have been a joint-controller . Microsoft methodically collected data about how individuals use Word , Excel and PowerPoint without first informing users . The company also did not give them the option to opt out of having their data collected . Alarms were raised when the Dutch investigators discovered that there was no documentation on the type of personal data Microsoft processed or why it was collecting the data in the first place . The fact that the company also routinely sent data to the US also raised serious concerns . Dutch officials were particularly concerned that sensitive government data may have been collected and then sent to US servers that are subject to seizure or query by US law enforcement . Microsoft and the Dutch government have since reached an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , saying : " On 26 October 2018 agreement was reached on an improvement plan in which Microsoft undertook to adapt its products for use by the Dutch government in compliance with the GDPR and other applicable legislation .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'bottled out of' which does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction as it lacks an NP object and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Newry-born Radio Ulster presenter John Toal on the influence of his late mother on his life , singing for the Pope and the best and worst interview subjects he has encountered BelfastTelegraph.co.uk BBC Radio Ulster presenter John Toal , whose unique brand of down-to-earth tales of family and community life , gentle humour and music eases us into the weekend , has a major regret in life - his mum , Mary , never got to hear him broadcast live and died before he was married . BBC Radio Ulster presenter John Toal , whose unique brand of down-to-earth tales of family and community life , gentle humour and music eases us into the weekend , has a major regret in life - his mum , Mary , never got to hear him broadcast live and died before he was married . Newry-born John , who has been on our airwaves for three decades after being plucked from the street @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about his late mother . As an only child , he saw her as a huge influence in his life , and he is keen to acknowledge as much in our interview . " Mum was very quiet , " he says . " She was brilliant . She was the one who did all the running . I was that kid who you would want to slap , probably . I was at the feis and reciting poems and singing , because that is what I loved doing . She was the one who made all that happen . She was the one who took me to everything . " She would sit through 125 children saying poems , waiting for me to get up and say mine . We would not get home until 11 o'clock at night . " We would walk in the door and my dad would be sitting in the front room , reading the paper , and he 'd say ' Well , any hardware ? ' It is only when you grow up and become a parent yourself that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with him ? ' He just came home from work and his dinner was probably made and left for him and he sat , reading the paper and waited for us to come in . She was the one who did all the running . " My mum died nearly 30 years ago . I was at college when she passed away . She was only 57 years old and had cancer . " She was diagnosed in September 1989 but rallied a little by Christmas and then set her heart on going to Lourdes in the May of the following year . The three of us - mum , dad and me - were to go . " At that time , she was n't fit to go , but we provisionally booked for the three of us to go in May . And then at the last minute the family said that I should really concentrate on my final exams , so I stayed here . I left them down to the bus on the Thursday and they went off to Lourdes . She died @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just 19 years old . It was tough . You do n't think of it at the time , you just get through . I remember ringing the undertaker 's from my uncle 's kitchen in Belfast and him asking me if my mother had a plot in the cemetery . I said I had n't a clue . He was asking me if I wanted a single plot or a family plot that would fit three people . He said , ' What I 'm trying to say to you , son , is are you thinking of living around the town ? ' I remember thinking , ' We 'll get one person buried here and then I 'll consider where I 'll be buried ' because I was 19 . " It was only a few weeks after Cardinal O'Fiaich had died in Lourdes while leading a pilgrimage to the Marian Shrine . He died on May 8 , 1990 , and my mum died on May 19 . We had to organise bringing her home through the airport . The coffin was closed . It @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that you really think about it . " Fifty-seven seemed really old to me , but people kept saying that she was very young when she died . Now at 49 , I 'm not that far away from that age myself . To think that you would be taken away at that age would be horrendous . There is nothing worse than losing a parent . " John is sorry his mum never got to hear him at work . " One of my regrets is that she never heard me present live on the radio , " he says . " I had started in the BBC in September 1989 , so she knew that I was in the BBC , but she had wanted me to be a teacher . I applied for teaching twice and did n't get the interview . They said I had a lack of enthusiasm . " She knew that I was doing shows , one a week , and that they were pre-recorded . But I did the first live show the July after she died . I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ heard me do any live radio , which is a real pity . " John , who lives with his wife , Catriona , and three children , Daire ( 19 ) , Lorcan ( 17 ) and Meabh ( 15 ) , in Saintfield , fell into his radio career by sheer luck . " I was taking part in a cross-community music project down at the City Hall in Belfast back in 1989 , " he explains . " There was someone there from the BBC , and they said that they were looking for classical music presenters . He told us to come round to the BBC , so three or four of us trekked up and walked into studio one . There , a disembodied voice asked me to read a script , and that was really it . I do n't know what I did . It was as informal as that . I do n't think I even filled in a form . I sounded like a little scared child . The first few programmes that went out were really only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ terrified and embarrassed to be there , sort of telling listeners , ' If you really have nothing better to do , why not listen to this programme ? ' . I took them to the skip myself . " The BBC 's Ormeau Avenue Broadcasting House is a long way from the streets of Newry where John grew up . " I grew up on the Belfast Road in Newry , " he says . " It was only me , no brothers or sisters . I was actually born in Newry General Hospital . I went in school in Camlough , Co Armagh , so I was the only Down GAA supporter at the school . Then someone worked out that Daisy Hill Hospital was actually in Co Armagh , and they taunted me , saying that there was no such thing as a Down person . When I said this at home , my mum told me I was born in Newry General , and I took great pleasure in going back to school the next day and telling them I was a Down person @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a child I sang for Pope John Paul II . There was a choir in Newry that got a trip to Rome in December 1980 . It was a big choir congress , but we had an inside connection - one of the women in our choir knew a priest who worked in the Vatican , so we all got up at the crack of dawn to go in through all those marble halls and corridors , and then eventually into this private chapel . " We sang for the Pope and then he met us in the little room next door . When you are 10 you do n't really think that much about it , but the photograph was on top of my granny 's TV for years . It was copied and sent around the whole family . " Music has been present throughout the most important moments of John 's life . It was through studying for a music degree 30 years ago that he met his wife Catriona . " I met her in Belfast , " he recalls . " We @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ music and she was doing French . She did n't want to come to Newry and I did n't want to go to Derry , where she was from , so we ended up sticking around Belfast . Our romance was a slow-burner . We were good friends for a while . We all hung around in a group at university for about a year before we started going out . That was 30 years ago in October . " I remember we were at the Speakeasy , the folk night at the Students ' Union , the first time we went out together . She is a city-slicker . I remember I took her to Newry one time on a date and she was telling someone about it afterwards . She said that we had gone down a little side street to get an ice cream . That side street was Monaghan Street , the second-biggest street in Newry . " John bottled out of proposing several times , before finally popping the question . " I probably planned to propose for a while before I actually @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " I think I chickened out of it a few times that she did n't know of . I remember walking up a beach in Donegal , and there was this stone there in the sand -it was a perfect heart shape . You know when you have this out-of-body experience and you look down and think , ' Oh my God , this is all here for a reason , this is it , it 's building up to something . Go ! Go ! Go ! ' ? And then I thought that I could n't do it . I had n't got my head around it . We both kind of looked at this stone , put it back on the beach and walked on . Maybe a month later we were walking the hill at Howth , and I got down on one knee and I proposed to her there . " We got married in Derry , and we roped in all the friends to provide music . We had a cello , a harp and such things . I sang something myself at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ walking up the aisle , I was too busy shaking . Once I gathered my nerves and saw that she had actually turned up , I got up and sang . " But there was one glaring absentee at the ceremony - his mum . It was also a very difficult time for his dad . " My father , Sean , was on his own - he found it really , really hard , " John says . " Of course , he did n't talk about it and I did n't talk about it . We were like characters in one of those John McGahern books . He was distraught and I think he was afraid I was going to clear off over the hills because of this lovely Derry woman and that he 'd never see me again . It was tricky . " John 's father took a great interest in his work , even advising him on potential programme topics . " My dad used to cut things out of the paper and send them to me , " he says . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ He 'd see something and he 'd say that it would make for a very interesting piece for my programme . I still have his letters at home . " Dad was from Keady in Co Armagh . He came to Newry in 1947 and got a job selling wine and spirits . He covered all of Ireland , even though he did n't drive . He knew every town and back-road in Ireland and knew someone who lived in it . " I remember going abroad on holidays with him one year , and we met these three fellas from home . My dad would always ask , ' What part of the world are you from ? ' , when he met anyone . They said that he could n't possibly know where they lived , but he said he would . They told him that they were from Mountmellick . He said to them , ' Co Laois , I know it well . ' And he also mentioned a man who worked in a bar there . " I remember thinking , ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' ? It was amazing . " My father died 10 years ago - he was 81 years old . " As someone who grew up as an only child , fathering three children changed John 's perspective on life . " I think that having children changes you , particularly if you are an only child , " he says . " You see them negotiating with each another . I did n't have to do any of that , and I think that it 's a skill that you need in life . " When you do n't have brothers and sisters to fight with , I think that makes a difference . You learn a lot from fighting with your siblings . You make your own personality , and your own way if you are bouncing off somebody . " But there 's an upside to being an only child . If you are an only child , you think you are God 's gift , that you 're 100% right all the time and you do n't need to take direction @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ media and become a pain in the behind . " I always remember an interview I did with a guy called Kevin Leman , a sort of Dr Phil . He had written a book about birth order - where you come in your family and how it teaches you about your life . At the end of the interview , I asked him if he could tell , by the conversation that we had , where I came in my family . He said that he felt I was definitely an eldest child , probably an only child . I wondered how I had given it away . " He said that he had done well over 100 interviews , coast to coast in America , and out of all those hosts , 97 of them were only children . And he said , ' All I can tell you is that you 've gone into a business that a lot of only children go into . " In his 30 years on the radio , John has conversed with a wide range of people , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ much . " The person who left the most lasting impression was Father Peter McVerry , and that was last year , " he says . " He is a Newry man , a Jesuit priest , a real champion of the homeless in Ireland . I 'd seen and heard him so many times because he 's been on TV and the radio frequently . But I met him in the house where he has an office and there were people coming in and out constantly seeking help . I remember saying to him , ' You could have been a parish priest with a nice house and car , playing golf on a Sunday , saying Mass once a week ' . He said he would have hated that . I could see that he was a person who wanted to do good for others . It was n't about him , about personal glory or fame , it was about doing the right thing . " I remember coming up the road afterwards and thinking , ' That was definitely one of those profound experiences @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ met some awkward customers along the road . I remember doing an interview with the lead singer of a very famous folk-rock band . He had written a book . There was a brilliant story in the book about him recording in Abbey Road with all these stars . Our interview was live in an afternoon show . I said , ' It all got off to a great start for you when you went to London ' . He said , ' Yeah ' . I said , ' You ended up playing with some very famous people ' . He said , ' That 's right . ' I said , ' Well tell me about that . ' And he said , ' No , then people wo n't buy the book ' . Then he blanked a second question . " I could see on the screen that the texts were coming in from people telling me to take him off air . I knew that if I had been listening I would have turned it off by then . That was fun . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mornings are not famous . We do n't really do celebrity stuff . " It 's the people who are not famous and think that they have no story to tell that tell you the most interesting stories . It could be someone who has never told their story . They are the memorable people . Those are the people who stay with me . " John Toal presents The John Toal Show on Saturdays from 11am to noon and Classical Connections with John Toal on Sunday afternoons from 3pm to 5pm , both on BBC Radio Ulster . He will also be co-presenting BBC Northern Ireland School Choir of the Year next year with Kerry McLean .

It 's a catchphrase oft repeated on RuPaul 's Drag Race , seen by some as nothing more than a clever bon mot meant to drive home the importance of the competition , but for RuPaul , the brain behind the phrase , it 's something more . It 's a mantra that 's led the multi-hyphenate personality to his bountiful empire consisting of a wildly successful reality TV franchise , 14 studio albums , three books , a podcast , an annual drag-themed convention and a line of candy bars , not to mention countless film and TV appearances in other folk 's creations , as he 's popularized an art form that exists to defy the very nature of the mainstream . It 's a guiding light to a career that seemed , to a little boy born RuPaul Andre Charles in San Diego , Calif. on November 17 , 1960 , not impossible , as it might to those cut from a less fabulous cloth , but entirely mothertucking inevitable . " I knew @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would be a star , but I knew I could n't go directly to Los Angeles . I knew , based on my reading Andy Warhol'sInterview magazine , that I would have to go to New York , become a downtown superstar , and that would be the way I could transfer into mainstream stardom and get into Hollywood . I 'm telling you , I knew this at 12 years old , " Ru told Entertainment Weekly in 2016 of his start . " So I moved to Atlanta when I was 15 , went to the School of Performing Arts , worked in my family business selling used cars for six years , and then started my act . " And that act , honed down south before Ru attempted to break into the Big Apple , was nothing like what we 've come to expect from the most famous drag queen in the world . And yet , it was entirely in step with what the iconoclast has always stood for . " I decided to start doing drag more as a way to get a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Reagan ' 80s anti-disco story line . It was a way to capture some of that Warhol fun and make a statement , " he told the publication . " Smeared lipstick and combat boots and ratty wigs . It was a great golden era of drag -- there was a tradition and a language attached to it . But we busted in and broke all the rules . " After an ill-fated move to New York in 1984 saw Ru return to Atlanta after only six months with his tail between his legs , he began to develop his original drag character , undercover model Starrbooty , and a more femme approach to the act . " When I got into drag , straight men , straight women , everybody would go , ' Bitch , damn . ' And I could feel it . I had never felt it before . I knew I had power . And I knew that it was important for me to get a lot of work done , wherever I was , " Ru explained . " I wrote @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 16 Starrbootys , these trashy little movies on VHS . Atlanta gave me the freedom to produce that kind of stuff . Those 10,000 hours that Malcolm Gladwell talks about needing to master anything -- that was that period for me , between 1982 and 1992 . Not making a dime , but putting in hard yards . I would write books . I would sell postcards at the club . I would do whatever it took to make up the credits for those 10,000 hours . " It was in Atlanta where he also met two young musicians Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato , who would go on to become seminal figures in Ru 's life and career . " When we met him , he was wheat-pasting posters of himself that said , ' RuPaul Is Everything . ' I often think of that moment because it was just so symbolic in many ways , " Bailey recalled of those early days . " It contained the fundamental message of Ru from the beginning ... And it was instant recognition . You could n't miss it . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you were seeing . He was a motherf--king star . " In 1987 , Ru returned to New York and dove head-first into working as a go-go dancer , building a name for himself among the Club Kids , getting work from club impresario Suzanne Bartsch to just be RuPaul at her parties . But nothing was coming together like Ru expected and a year later , as he was turning 28 , he 'd already left the city for Los Angeles , sleeping on his younger sister 's couch , before returning to San Diego and his mother 's house . " I was at the end of my rope . I thought , ' Could it be that this is not meant for me ? ' It was this horrible existence . And one day , friend and DJ Larry Tee called me and said , " Ru , what the f--k are you doing ? You are a f--king star . Get your ass back to New York . I will pay for your ticket . But get your ass back here and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ You need those friends who are going to shake you up and say , ' Dorothy , wake up ' when you get stuck in the poppy field . So I got a plane ticket and decided I was going to f--king shave these legs , I 'm going to shave my chest , I 'm going to put some f--king titties in -- rolled-up socks , not implants -- and I 'm going to go back to New York and give those bitches exactly what they want from me . And overnight , I became the star of downtown . " Gamma-Rapho via Getty Images After a big-time featured appearance in the B-52 's 1989 music video for " Love Shack " gave Ru his first taste of national exposure , he was literally crowned Queen of Manhattan by a panel of club owners and promoters . " And after my reign was done in September of 1990 , I was ready to move to the next level , " Ru said . " So I went to Randy and Fenton and in the beginning of 1991 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ woman-on-the-street segment on Bailey and Barbato 's U.K. show Manhattan Cable came first , followed by the single " Supermodel ( You Better Work ) . " Rejected by most placed around town , eventually Monica Lynch at Tommy Boy Records , known primarily for rap and hip-hop , sparked to it and the track was released in November 1992 . Ru 's first studio album , appropriately entitled Supermodel of the World , followed in June and the single went on to become one of 1993 's best-selling dance records . Suddenly , Ru was a household name across the country , something he credits to an appearance on The Arsenio Hall Show that year . " That was the moment when nothing would ever be the same again . When I was ready to go mainstream , I took the sexualized raunchiness out . The glamazon supermodel was a caricature that you could bring home to meet Mom and Dad , " he explained . " I was well-spoken . I was Miss Black America . " That same year , he transcended " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the gay rights movement when he performed at the LGBT March on Washington . " I knew , based on the questions I was asked , that I had to represent , and I knew that my days of having fun in drag were over . In the club world , it was so much fun . We would terrorize the neighborhoods and have a great time doing lots of naughty , naughty things , " Ru explained . " But I knew that those days were over as soon as I got the news , because it was clear I had to represent a faction of society that had gone unnoticed and did n't have a voice . " " It was an iconic moment . Ru in front of hundreds of thousands of people . It was a great moment in a great place , " Bailey added . " Ru has always said , ' Every time I bat my eyelashes , it 's a political act . ' But it 's true . It felt like such a powerful statement about who we are as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and what we believe in . " Gamma-Rapho via Getty Images The following year , he made history , landing a modeling contract as the first face of MAC Cosmetics ' Viva Glam line . " It was very controversial . The concerns were from our retail partners who were shocked by the first images . The first VIVA Glam poster had RuPaul spelling the M with his legs spread , " Frank Toskan , cofounded of MAC , said . " We had customers that did n't know what to make of it . But we needed a voice -- and a very loud one -- and he was it . There were questions in the beginning , but everybody applauded and celebrated us by the end . " With Ru 's fame taking off , it was time to leave his club days behind , but not before a chance encounter on the dance floor in 1994 brought him to the love his life . " I met Georges on the dance floor at Limelight in New York City , the disco , " RuPaul @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who runs a 50-acre ranch in Wyoming and South Dakota , in a 2013 episode of OWN 's Oprah : Where Are They Now ? " He was on the dance floor dancing like a manic . I had to go over and say , ' What are you going through ? ' " he laughs . " And it 's also because he 's actually 6 ' 7 " , so he 's taller than I am -- so of course I had to notice him . " " He 's so kind and funny , " Ru said of the man he married in 2017 on the anniversary of the day they met in a 2015 interview with BuzzFeed I remember praying , ' I want a sweet , sensitive man , ' and I got an Australian who 's just lovely . " As he began racking up appearances in both TV and film -- Sister , Sister , Ellen , The Brady Bunch Movie and To Wong Foo , Thanks For Everything , Julie Newmar , to name a few -- he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on New York 's WKTU station in 1996 , reuniting him with Club Kid Michelle Visage , his future Drag Race partner-in-crime and What 's the Tee ? podcast co-host . " And one week , RuPaul walks in . And he sees me and he goes , ' Of course it 's you . Who else would it be ? ' That was ' 96 . I had n't seen him since ' 92 , " Visage recalled to EW . " It was like kismet , and that 's where everything started . It was obvious that this was the team . " Around the same time , after his appearance at the 1995 VH1 Fashion and Music Awards had stolen the show , the network approached Benton and Bailey 's production company World of Wonder about creating a show . And in 1996 , The RuPaul Show was born , making Ru national TV 's first openly gay talk show host , with Visage as his sidekick . The show lasted for 100 episodes , landing such high-profile guests like Cher , Diana Ross and NSYNC @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on people who spoke to my sensibility . It was n't just people promoting a book or movie . We got Bea Arthur because we just wanted Bea Arthur , " Ru explained . " Diana Ross was my first guest , and she was a pinch-me moment . Cher was a pinch-me moment . They really all were . " The schedule was grueling , though . " Ru and I would go to New Jersey at 4:15 in the morning to do our radio show , and then pack up and go right to the studio in the city and film back-to-back episodes of The RuPaul Show , " Visage explained . " Then we 'd go home , undrag , and do it all again the next day . " Ahead of its time , the show was abruptly canceled in 1998 . " We did what we thought America could be ready for , but there were tons of folks who just did n't get it , who were uncomfortable with the idea of a gay man in drag . I know that from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sales to sell to premium sponsors , " Lauren Zalaznick , former VH1 development exec , recalled . " And there was some difficulty in booking the show . It was n't huge in ratings , but in all honesty , I think there was resistance to putting a very big artist or a particularly straight male artist with a straight male fanbase on a drag queen 's talk show . " Uninterested in returning to the club scene and having parted ways with Tommy Boy Records , Ru made the decision to take a hiatus . One that would last nearly eight years . " By the time 1998 came around and the VH1 show ended , I decided I needed to move out to LA to reclaim my own personal rhythm . I became sober . I started having afternoon parties for my family and friends to get back into real life , " he explained . " And it came about at a time when there was a change in the air , politically , and a hostility I could feel . I knew I needed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ those years , they 're so important . I got to be myself again and remember what that is . " Ru would n't release new music until 2004 's Red Hot , around the same time he and Visage nearly returned to the radio . That show fell apart before it began , but Ru was ready for a return . And when World of Wonder hired Tom Campbell as its head of development in 2006 , he was ready to ask the important questions . Namely , " Why are n't we doing something with RuPaul ? " " When I came back to show business , I was doing it for different reasons -- color and music and love and laughter and beauty and dancing and creativity . All of those reasons why I get out of bed in the morning , " Ru explained . " I was very close to not coming back , to saying I want to do something else . But when I finally did come back , I was inspired . " " Ru had said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ show . ' So we spent three or four days coming up with a loosely scripted show , like Strangers With Candy , " Campbell explained . " And Ru goes , ' This is great , but you know what ? We should do a reality competition show . ' " He landed on the " drag racing " play on words than eventually sold Ru on the concept , but had trouble getting any mainstream networks to bite . Enter : Logo . The young LGBTQ-centric network had only been in existence since 2005 and were willing to take a chance , but even they were hesitant on putting drag on the air at first . " Drag had been pitched around a bit prior , but as soon as you have RuPaul in that conversation , it changes it , because you actually get the magnitude of it , " Pam Post , SVP of programming , admitted . " Somebody who had had international success , really , is the only person who could be the cornerstone of a franchise like that . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ scrappy little series debuted in 2009 , shot in a modest studio in Burbank . And it was no overnight success . " Everything about Ru 's career has been a slow rise , " Barbato said . " There were a lot of people -- not just mainstream but gay people -- who heard about it and said , ' I 'm not going to watch a drag show . ' So I think it 's been a natural evolution , this slow burn word of mouth . " And with each consecutive season , that word of mouth brought more and more eyeballs , helping the show transcend its initial gay niche status to become what it is today : A global phenomenon . It 's welcomed guest judges as high-profile as Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande . It 's graduated from its Logo home and moved to VH1 . It 's given rise to DragCon , the annual conventions held in Los Angeles and New York City to celebrate Ru , his Drag Race girls , and all things drag . It won the freaking Outstanding @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ given Ru his newest identity : Mama Ru . For a little boy who just set out to be famous , he 's done that and more , becoming a pioneering force and a role model to youth around the globe . " I never set out to be a role model , I may have set out to be a super model , but not a role model , " he told Vogue UK earlier this year . " But I accept the responsibility and it 's an honor . " " I 'm trying to be a curator to my philosophy . I did n't come up with it , but I carry the torch of a philosophy that many people laid down before me : Learning to love yourself , " he told EW . " That 's what it 's about . Maybe I 'm just doing it with a pair of cha-cha heels .

It has been a bit of a tumultuous week for Brexit . Last week saw Prime Minister Theresa May strike an EU divorce deal which saw some cabinet ministers -- including the Brexit secretary -- resign from their positions . With just 130 days to go until Britain leaves the European Union , to say there is uncertainty in the air is an understatement . Indeed , there have even been reports of people starting to stockpile food . But will we really run out of anything ? No one seems to know what will happen come March 29 , 2019 , although undoubtedly there are some foods and drinks more likely to experience shortages . Below , are the foods that might disappear from our shelves . ( Unsplash ) It 's safe to say we 're cheese lovers here in the UK , with Brits consuming around 700,000 tonnes of cheese per year -- which equates to around 10 kilograms of cheese per person each year . Yet , a recent report from the British Retail Consortium found Brexit could mean a ' cheese crisis @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Burrata , comt ? and manchego have already seen price rises and even our beloved cheddar cheese is at risk , because 82 per cent of the UK 's cheddar is imported from Ireland . A separate study from the London School of Economics backed up these claims and furthermore , the UK managing director of Arla Foods , Ash Amirahmadi , said in a press release : " Our dependence on imported dairy products means that disruption to the supply chain will have a big impact . Most likely we would see shortages of products and a sharp rise in prices , turning everyday staples like butter , yoghurts , cheese and infant formula , into occasional luxuries . Speciality cheeses , where there are currently limited options for production , may become very scarce . " The answer to a cheese crisis ? Buy local . The UK produces 94 per cent of the milk it consumes and there are plenty of UK-made cheeses on the market .

According to the Wine and Spirits Trade Association ( WSTA ) , if ' no deal ' were to play out , this would greatly affect the UK 's juniper supplies , making gin much harder to produce . ( Getty Images ) During a roundtable meeting with Secretary of State for Environment , Food and Rural Affairs Michael Gove over the weekend , it was revealed that Mars bars could run out ' within weeks ' if the UK left the EU without a deal . This is because two of the ingredients found in the chocolate bar are imported and go off within a few days . If certain food imports are barred from entering the UK in the no-deal scenario , the beloved Mars bar might cease production .

( Unsplash ) When Britain leave the EU , the pound is expected to devaluate .

He told the inquiry : " I apologise to those survivors and victims of abuse for what they have suffered within the archdiocese over the years . I apologise to them , and I would certainly wish to seek some way of lifting the burden . I know that apologies may feel as if they have come too late , and are inadequate . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ He acknowledged that there was still " room for a lot of improvement " in the diocese , but said that he had learned from meetings in which survivors had told him of the trauma that they had experienced . The RC Archbishop of Westminster , Cardinal Vincent Nichols , who was previously Archbishop of Birmingham , pulled out of giving evidence to IICSA after falling ill on Remembrance Sunday ( News , 16 November ) . The inquiry will reconvene to hear his evidence on 13 December . The inquiry focused on the response by the diocese to allegations of abuse by four priests , including the now dead Fr John Tolkien , the son of the author J. R. R. Tolkien . The hearing was told that the RC Church knew that Tolkien posed a risk to children after a note was made in 1968 of an allegation that he had told Boy Scouts to strip naked , yet he was allowed to continue to work as a priest in Sparkhill , Birmingham , for decades . One survivor told the inquiry that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by Tolkien , and , afterwards , was told by the priest to keep what happened a secret . Further allegations from other alleged victims surfaced , and the case was investigated by police , but , after a medical assessment of Tolkien , the Crown Prosecution Service decided not to proceed , and Tolkien died shortly after . Tolkien " repeatedly and consistently denied the allegations against him " , the inquiry was told . One complainant , Christopher Carrie , sued the diocese over its handling of his claim of sexual abuse by Tolkien , and was paid ? 15,000 in compensation . The hearing is also investigating the diocese 's response to the cases of priests Samuel Penney and James Robinson , both of whom were convicted and imprisoned for child sexual abuse ; and one other priest , who has not been charged with a crime and is not named by the inquiry . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and the phrase 'out of singing' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'singing' is part of a prepositional phrase indicating the source of fun, not a VP[-ing] predicate with a causee.

The sentence 'young people continue to be priced out of learning an instrument' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Here, 'young people' is the NP object functioning as a causee, and 'learning an instrument' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. The interpretation is prevention, as the action of pricing out prevents young people from learning an instrument. The verb 'priced' implies a means of exerting financial pressure, aligning with the classification of verbs in the construction.

Musical directors working on some of the West End 's biggest shows have warned of the serious consequences for theatre if young people continue to be priced out of learning an instrument . MDs who have helmed productions ranging from the 1991 West End revival of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat , to current hits including Hamilton and new musical Six , have called for music tuition to be more affordable as fears mount that access to arts education is becoming the preserve of the rich . Research published by Musicians ' Union earlier this month claimed that children from poorer families were half as likely to learn an instrument than their more affluent peers . The costs associated with both lessons and equipment were highlighted as the primary barriers for families from lower income bands , adding to growing national concern over the knock-on effect this could have on the range of people pursuing music professionally .

The standard of musicianship in our theatres , studios and concert halls is currently second to none internationally . We have to keep it that way . " In the MU 's study , 41% of people from the lowest and middle income brackets said the fact that music lessons were out of reach financially was the primary reason for not learning .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a situation where a fight was started out of nothing by enemies, which does not involve a causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate.

Mr Kim is a former South Korean police officer who once served as head of police in Gyeonggi , the country 's most populous province . He was already senior vice-president of Interpol and had been serving as acting president since Mr Meng 's disappearance . He will serve out the remaining two years of Mr Meng 's term . Although his role as president is largely ceremonial - the day-to-day running of Interpol is led by Secretary-General J ? rgen Stock - it does wield influence . Upon his election , Mr Kim said : " Our world is now facing unprecedented changes which present huge challenges to public security and safety . " To overcome them , we need a clear vision : we need to build a bridge to the future . " Mr Prokopchuk is a Russian general who worked for many years with Russia 's interior ministry . Image copyrightGetty ImagesImage caption Russian Alexander Prokopchuk was widely considered the frontrunner for the post While he was Interpol 's Moscow bureau chief , he was accused of abusing the so-called red @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who were critical of Russian President Vladimir Putin . No such accusations have been levelled at him while he has been one of Interpol 's four vice-presidents . Moscow said Mr Prokopchuk would remain an Interpol vice-president representing Europe and " focus on strengthening the position of Interpol in the international police community and increasing the efficiency of the organisation 's work " . There had been growing fears among Russian human rights groups and officials from other countries that Moscow would use his position as president to target its political opponents . A bipartisan group of US senators said electing Mr Prokopchuk would be " akin to putting a fox in charge of the henhouse " , while a prominent Kremlin critic said it would be like " putting the mafia in charge " . This prompted a furious response from Moscow , who said such comments amounted to a " certain kind of interference in the electoral process of an international organisation " . Both the UK foreign office and US Secretary of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ candidacy . Lithuania and Ukraine had threatened to withdraw from Interpol if Mr Prokopchuk was elected . Two British-based prominent critics of the Kremlin - financier Bill Browder and ex-oil tycoon Mikhail Khodorkovsky - say they plan to launch a legal bid to have Russia suspended by Interpol . He welcomed the rejection of Mr Prokopchuk saying : " Reason prevails in this dark world . " " The clear next step is to suspend Russia from Interpol for its consistent and serial abuse of the Red Notice and diffusion system for political purposes , " he added . By BBC Reality Check team Most of them are not made public , so tracking is difficult . It 's also highly subjective as to whether notices have been issued for only political reasons . But looking at Interpol 's published database on Red Notices , we can draw some interesting insights . First , of the cases publicly declared by individual countries , Interpol 's data shows that 160 individuals are wanted by Russia . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ One person is wanted by the UK and 44 by China . This is not a complete picture as countries can restrict details of the notice to law enforcement . We do , however , know the total number of notices issued by all countries , and this shows a significant rise over the past decade . In 2006 , Interpol issued fewer than 3,000 , according to statistics gathered by Fair Trial ( from collated Interpol data ) , an organisation that campaigns against abuses of Interpol . The number has steadily increased and in 2017 , when Interpol published about 13,000 Red Notices . There were a total of about 85,000 notices in circulation at the end of 2016 . Countries can also request other colour-coded notices to help locate suspects or warn member countries of criminal activity .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'made a habit out of stopping' involves an NP ('a habit') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and 'stopping' modifies the following noun phrase 'the bigger teams in their tracks'. This does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, and the NP object ('a habit') does not function as a causee. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

BD : It depends on how the respective injuries pan out , both clubs could be without key players - and given their lack of depth that would hurt Blues more . If they do n't have Jota and Maghoma then they 'll surely have to change their 4-4-2 formation - for the first time under Garry Monk . If both are available then I 'm backing them for a 1-1 draw . If either is missing then I can only see Villa winning 1-0 or 2-0 . JC : 1-1 . The accusation of sitting on the fence could be held against me here , but I honestly believe the points will be split . KD : I do n't think there 's much between the two sides at the moment , on paper Villa 's team is far superior but Blues have made a habit out of stopping the bigger teams in their tracks this season . It will be a close encounter but I 'm going to say Blues will edge it . 1-2 . GE : 1-1 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this time around with little to choose between the rivals , certainly in terms of league position and points . The international break came at the wrong time for Villa who were flying after winning at Derby County . Villa have had the upper hand in these fixtures at Villa Park in recent seasons and edge it in terms of quality , but Garry Monk has instilled a fantastic spirit and siege mentality into Blues . All of which leads me rather predictably to predict a draw . 1-1 . Video Loading Video Unavailable Click to playTap to play The video will start in 8Cancel Play now AD : A lot will depend on which players miss out through injury for both teams . If Villa are without James Chester and John McGinn I think they 'll struggle and the same can be said for Blues without their most creative outlet , Jota . Gary Gardner , who is ineligible under the terms of his loan deal , will also be a huge miss for Blues . I 'm struggling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wanting to sit on the fence , I 'm going 1-0 Blues . SI : If this fixture was taking place two or three weeks ago I 'd have predicted a Blues win , no doubt about it . But they have n't been quite as strong defensively in the last two games which is a worry against a Villa side who have turned it on going forward over the same period . However , Blues have the deadliest strike partnership in the division and at the moment , it 's a safe bet that one of Adams or Jutkiewicz will score . A score draw for me . KD : John McGinn has been a revelation since arriving at Villa Park in the summer and I think he 'll have a key part to play in the centre of midfield . Blues have controlled the midfield battle in most games this season and if McGinn can get a foothold in the middle of the park to springboard attacks I fear Villa will have too much for the visitors . As for Blues @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Villa , he 's performed consistently well this season and left-back stands out as a weak spot for Villa which the Spaniard will be eager to exploit . If he can get in behind the opposition and provide for Lukas Jutkiewicz and Che Adams then you would n't bet against them converting given their current form . GE : Yannick Bolasie . I can see a steady progression in his performances for Villa and now he looks ready to start . If he 's fit and firing , Blues could be in trouble . That said , Che Adams will cause Villa problems and a direct ball over the top is certainly their weakness and one that the pace-ace could pounce on . MK : John McGinn could be the main man for Villa . A slight knock is unlikely to stop the all action Scotsman from being involved . His energy could be the key to Villa dictating the tempo in front of their own fans . Lukas Jutkiewicz is the Blues dangerman . His imposing presence and impressive work ethic is finally being rewarded @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ full with Jutkiewicz and Che Adams , particularly if James Chester misses out . AD:Jack Grealish holds the key for Villa . Blues will be typically well-organised and Grealish will be tasked with breaking through Monk 's two banks of four to feed Tammy Abraham . He was excellent in last season 's Villa Park derby and the claret and blues need a repeat performance . Maikel Kieftenbeld has an incredibly important job on derby day . The Dutchman will be partnered by one of Craig Gardner or Charlie Lakin , both of whom have played little football this season - and he 'll need to guide them through the 90 minutes . Kieftenbeld will also be closest to Grealish and he 'll have to make sure he does a better job than Cheikh Ndoye managed last season . SI : John McGinn is the Villa player who has impressed me most this season and if he plays on Sunday , he 's the one that Blues must try to keep close shackles on . If that 's the case then that probably makes Maikel Kieftenbeld the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have his work cut out against McGinn if the Scotland international is fit - and he also needs to contend with the roaming Jack Grealish . BD : Both are excellent , both clubs would flourish with either in charge . I 've seen first hand though how Monk has lifted an entire club out of 18 months of despondency . From saving Blues from relegation last season to defying the transfer embargo to build such an effective team this , he 's done remarkably well . Throw in his Premier League experience and for me he 's slightly further on in his career . JC : We 're rather lucky on this patch to have the most affable managers around . Dean Smith is slowly working his magic after an indifferent start , while Monk has been producing results from the get go . Their respective squads are responding to what is being asked of them , and it 's clear they 're enjoying themselves - albeit in the early stages of the former 's tenure . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Birmingham City with a non-existent budget is nothing short of remarkable . Monk , along with his coaching staff , deserves a lot of credit for the improvements they have made to a squad that performed so poorly last season before he arrived . Having said that I think Villa have something special in Dean Smith , he 's a Premier League manager in waiting and the next big thing in British coaching . He 's gone from strength to strength since leaving Walsall and I 'm excited to see what he can achieve at a bigger club , no disrespect to Walsall and Brentford ! GE : I 'm been very impressed with both managers this season . Monk 's attention to detail is second to none and the way he has drilled his side to nullify opponents is a credit to his hard work and talent . But there 's something special about Dean Smith . I really admire his modern ways and the style he 's trying to implement at Villa . Plus I see him more than Monk so I 'm going to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ MK : Both teams are blessed with bright , young , forward-thinking managers right now . Monk is very measured , has galvanised the club and regularly shows touches of class in his dealings with the Blues fanbase . Smith , in his short time at Villa , is shaping up to be the articulate , open , shrewd and savvy boss the Holte End have craved for several years . AD : I 've been hugely impressed by both Smith and Monk and I 'd go as far as to say we 've got two of England 's most talented managers working on our patch . Smith seems to have already brought his Villa players around to his way of thinking , hence the excellent football the claret and blues have played in the last couple of games . Monk , meanwhile , has shown his brilliance in a different way . The way he 's handled himself through Blues ' battles with the EFL has been remarkable - and he 's managed to build a competitive team on limited funds @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ You 'd have to say Monk . Just . SI : This is a tough one because they 're both good , young bosses who clearly have brilliant relationships with their players . Smith wants to get Villa playing a certain way which he 's shown can do well at Brentford , which is something I admire . But Monk 's rescue mission last season and the way he turned a fractured club around was nothing short of brilliant . And there 's a real connection among all at Blues at the moment and a siege mentality only strengthened by the complications over the summer . For what he 's done in the face of adversity , Monk gets my vote . BD : I genuinely have no idea , it depends on Blues ' injuries and the EFL case . Blues are going to need a hell of a lot of luck to finish higher . If Monk achieves that it 's Manager of the Year territory @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ messed up badly . JC : Villa . They ought to be top six from here , with the table bunched so tightly and the size of their squad - funny to think , considering the furore there was only a month ago . Blues will be top half in my book , perhaps slightly higher than mid-table if Monk can continue to squeeze every last drop out of his skinny group . KD : As well as Blues are playing this season it will a big ask to keep this momentum going throughout the campaign given the size of their squad and top six may be too big of an ask . Meanwhile , Villa are starting to take shape under Dean Smith with a squad most Championship sides will envy . I expect them to go on a run of results similar to the back end of last season which will see them finish in the top six . GE : Villa . MK : I think Villa will finish higher , mainly because of the depth of their squad @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Andrew 's but scratch beneath the surface and they are lacking options . With the exception of left-back and centre-back , Villa have Championship-proven cover and competition across the pitch . AD : I think Villa will finish higher but I do n't expect either team to be promoted . Steve Bruce left Villa short at centre-back and signed players with the short term in mind which Smith will need to address . I expect Villa to mount a challenge for the play-offs but to just fall short . Blues fans would just be delighted to head into the last few games of the season with nothing riding on it , and I reckon that will be the case this year . If Blues had greater squad depth I think Monk would have a chance of achieving something special with this group . SI : Villa will finish higher but Blues wo n't be far behind . What a day this will be for Dean Smith , the boyhood fan taking charge of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ derby . It really is what the game is all about ! Birmingham will be desperate to head to Villa Park to spoil the party . It has been eight long years since they have beaten their old rivals and 13 since their last win in the league .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes the materials ('shipping containers and other modular building blocks') used for building, which is unrelated to the transitive out of -ing construction. There is no causer or causee relationship, nor is there a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Qatar , a country with a population of 2.7 million , were controversially awarded the World Cup in 2010 In four years ' time , the Qatar World Cup will be under way . The Gulf state 's hosting has been mired in controversy since Fifa 's shock decision to award it the tournament in 2010 . From being the first World Cup staged in the winter , to whether fans can drink alcohol , here is what we know so far about Qatar 2022 . The tournament will start on 21 November , with the final on 18 December - the national day of Qatar . That will mean a change in schedule for the Premier League and Europe 's other major leagues , as they are normally in full swing by November . One solution for Europe 's leagues could be to bring forward their winter break . Uefa said a decision on the scheduling of that season 's Champions League and Europa League will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Cup will be across 28 days , four fewer than the 32 of Russia 2018 . There could be 16 more teams in 2022 - with proposals to expand the tournament from 32 to 48 . However , Uefa president Aleksander Ceferin says such a plan could create " many problems " . Fifa is yet to decide . Qatar is three hours ahead of the UK , and kick-off times should be favourable for those watching on television . " More than three billion fans across Asia and Europe will benefit from prime-time viewing during the tournament thanks to convenient kick-off times , " Qatar 's supreme committee for delivery and legacy ( SC ) said . Hopefully a lot cooler than had it been held in the summer , when temperatures can reach 40C . The SC says the average temperature will be 18-24C , and will be " perfect " for players and fans . " Alcohol is not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sport , and it is illegal to drink alcohol in public and be drunk in public there . Alcohol is available in hotels , and that will be the case at the World Cup . It will also be on sale in other " designated areas " . What those areas are is yet to be decided , though organisers are planning fan parks . It will be up to Fifa to decide if alcohol will be available in stadiums . Organisers are considering a similar scheme to the Fan ID that was used in Russia , which provided visa-free entry to the country . Nationals from a total of 80 countries can already take advantage of visa-free entry . Though homosexuality is illegal in Qatar , the SC said " everyone will become welcome in 2022 " - but it is not clear how the current law will be applied . An SC spokesperson said : " Qatar has hosted numerous major international sporting events where every fan @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be no different . " With the longest distance between stadiums the 34 miles ( 55km ) between Al Bayt Stadium-Al Khor City and Al Wakrah Stadium , organisers are considering offering packages enabling fans to attend two group-stage matches on the same day . The shortest distance between stadiums is just three miles - from Al Rayyan Stadium to Education City Stadium . Ras Abu Aboud Stadium will be the first fully demountable tournament venue in World Cup history . It will be built out of shipping containers and other modular building blocks that will be repurposed post-tournament into smaller sports and non-sports venues The 40,000-seater Khalifa International Stadium , situated eight miles from Doha , has been redeveloped and is the only one open - it will host the World Athletics Championships next year . The other seven are at various stages of construction , with the SC saying work will be completed by 2020 . The 80,000-seater Lusail Stadium will host the opening match and final Concerns have been raised about the treatment of migrant workers building the new infrastructure , with human rights organisations condemning labour practices . " Ever since Qatar was awarded hosting rights we 've been pressing the authorities to clean up their act over the exploitation of migrant workers , " said Allan Hogarth , Amnesty International 's head of policy and government affairs . " Promised reforms have been slow in coming and we remain concerned that 2022 will arrive and Qatar 's hundreds of thousands of foreign workers will still be facing exploitation and poor working and living conditions . " Amnesty International said in September that dozens of migrants working on the city that will host the final had gone unpaid for months . A spokesman for the Qatari government said the contractors involved , Mercury MENA , were not directly involved in the building of the stadium but in the building of the city . Fifa president Gianni Infantino said the World Cup will " leave a great legacy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has had a very important social impact in the whole region , " he added . " When you think about all the debates on human rights and workers ' welfare ... without the World Cup , these debates would not have happened and the improvements which happened would not have happened either . " The tournament organisers said : " The health and wellbeing of our workers is our top priority . There are currently more than 30,000 workers on our sites . " The SC 's worker welfare standards cover ethical recruitment , accommodation and working conditions . Regular audits support compliance , while contractors in breach of the standards are subject to enforcement measures , including contract termination and blacklisting . " This will be a first World Cup appearance for the team currently ranked 96th in the world . They recently beat Switzerland - the world 's eighth best side - 1-0 and drew 2-2 with Iceland , as well as beating Ecuador 4-3 . Spanish World Cup winner Xavi and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ division . " There were many fears about Russia , but it turned out to be a very safe World Cup , a very welcoming World Cup , in a country that made fans feel good , " said Infantino . " The whole population contributed to that and I 'm sure the same will happen here in Qatar . The Russian World Cup was the best ever , and the World Cup in 2022 has to be even better . " Speaking in 2013 , then Football Association chairman Greg Dyke said they should aim to . And , after their semi-final appearance in Russia this year , the vibe around the national-team set-up is certainly positive . They have qualified for next year 's Nations League finals , beating Spain and World Cup finalists Croatia along the way . But only time will tell whether they can end 56 years of hurt in Qatar . |

Rethinking how we spend and save money is n't just about whizzy mobile apps and open banking . Challenger banks are making it harder for you to spend money by changing financial systems to take the anxiety out of money and better protect us from falling into debt when our mental health fails . That 's the idea behind features such as Monzo and Starling Bank 's gambling block , which stops customers from spending at high street bookies or online betting sites .

" If you have a gambling addiction , or it 's something that has given you trouble in the past , in a moment of strength you can block yourself from gambling in the future , " says Hugo Cornejo , head of design at Monzo .

A recent survey of 5,000 people carried out by the charity found that 93 per cent said they spend more in periods of poor mental health because of increased costs and reduced impulse control . Half of British adults with a debt problem have a mental health problem , says Sarah Murphy , associate director of advice , information and training at Rethink Mental Illness and Mental Health UK . " And we also know that people with mental health problems are more likely to get in to debt , " she adds . " It 's a really vicious cycle .

" Hearing from customers about what features they need is key for tech startups , particularly with banking , says Cornejo , as it brings to the forefront issues of financial inclusion that likely do n't impact many well-paid developers and designers .

ByNicole Kobie For Monzo , the idea to allow customers to block gambling sites and shops came via a conversation with Undy 's Money and Mental Health organisation , and was picked up by one of the banking startup 's designers , who worked on it during his " Monzo time " -- a day a month for developing your own projects . Monzo also picked up another idea from a joint hackathon held by the Financial Conduct Authority and Money and Mental Health , building at the event the first iteration of its " pots " tool , which save more easily but dropping money into virtual pots where it 's kept out of the overall account balance .

You 've seen a thousand of them before , but let 's be honest you love watching them every time they appear . This video is from Switzerland , that heartland of motorsport , the Gurnigel hillclimb to be precise , a race that claims to be the oldest motorsport event in Europe -- having been going since 1910 ( although not every year ) . The driver is 39-year-old Swiss Eric Berguerand , a hillclimber whose main motorsport career did n't make it out of karting . But , while Eric has n't made his way up the ladder in circuit racing , he 's clearly become something of a master of the dark art of hillclimbing . In his quite magnificently bewinged Lola Eric attacks this historic hillclimb with gusto -- such that he breaks the course record on his way up the hill .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('I talked her out of buying a truly heinous angora sweater'). It involves an animate NP subject ('I') and an NP object ('her') that functions as a causee, inducing a prevention interpretation (preventing her from buying the sweater). The verb 'talked' fits into the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot, specifically under 'By means of enticing, flattering, or verbal persuasion'. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Since the release of Ariana Grande 's new single ' thank u , next ' , which pays homage to the singer 's exes and the lessons that they 've taught her , Arianators across the globe have been eagerly awaiting the launch of the song 's music video . After much anticipation , a few days ago Grande finally started sharing sneak peeks from the video , painting a fuller of the video 's film-inspired concept much to the delight of her fans . In the music video , which has n't yet been released , Grande places an emphasis on the song 's message of self-love by lovingly recreating looks from popular female-led films , including Legally Blonde , Mean Girls and 13 Going on 30 . Ever since the release of Legally Blonde in 2001 , Elle Woods ' drive to become a successful lawyer and her unparalleled dress sense @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Grande pays tribute to her in her music video for ' thank u , next ' in true retro style , donning Woods ' orange and blue workout gear and using several props including her orange iBook and her pink , fuzzy phone . However , the Legally Blonde references do n't stop there . Jennifer Coolidge , who stars as beautician Paulette in the film , will also be making an appearance . " New best friend , " Grande wrote alongside a photo of herself with Coolidge on set of the music video . Grande 's references to Legally Blonde caught the attention of the film 's star Reese Witherspoon , who responded with one of the comedy 's most memorable quotes . " Also ... two weeks ago I saw Cameron Diaz at Fred Segal and I talked her out of buying a truly heinous angora sweater ! " Witherspoon wrote in a tweet that 's garnered almost 150,000 likes . Earlier this month , Grande released the lyric video for ' thank u , next ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had been based on the ' Burn Book ' from Mean Girls . The singer later seemed to confirm their suspicions when she posted a series of photos with two other girls with the caption : " Meet the plastics " . While Grande has n't revealed any more sneak peeks of the outfits inspired by Mean Girlsthat she 'll potentially be wearing in the music video , many have been expressing their excitement over the film 's inclusion . " Look - Ariana Grande 's ' thank u , next ' music video is going to be Mean Girls inspired and I can not explain to you the level of freaking the hell out that I am right now ! " one person wrote on Twitter . " Thirty , flirty and thriving , " a 13-year-old Jenna Rink says as she sits in her basement closet with her " dream house " in 13 Going on 30 , the same dollhouse that Grande has reproduced for her ' thank u , next ' music video . The 2004 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's magically transformed into a 30-year-old overnight , is the third film featured in the video , with Grande donning a shorter hairstyle to emulate Jennifer Garner .

The fourth and final film making an appearance in the ' thank u , next ' music video is Bring It On , as shared by Grande on social media yesterday . The singer shared photos of herself dressed in the red uniform of the Toros cheerleading squad from Rancho Carne High School , previously worn by Kirsten Dunst and Eliza Dushku in the 2000 teen comedy . Grande also shared a photo of the women starring as the opposing East Compton Clovers cheerleading squad .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'priced out of bidding' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a situation where a club has been financially prevented from bidding, which is not the same as the transitive out of -ing construction.

Follow your club now for first access to all our news , views and analysis Liverpool striker Sadio Mane has committed his future to Anfield and is on the verge of signing a new deal . A verbal agreement has been reached keeping Mane at the Merseyside club until at least 2023 , with only the formalities of putting pen to paper to complete . The Senegal striker is the last of the club 's famed attacking trio to pledge the peak years of his career to Jurgen Klopp 's side . It represents another important and shrewd piece of business by Liverpool as they retain the core of Klopp 's developing side . Firmino was rewarded with a ? 180,000 a week contract and Salah also received a spectacular wage increase . Mane 's deal is sure to take him into the same ballpark . " I am very happy , very happy to extend my time at Liverpool , " Mane told the club 's website . " It is a great day for me and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ win trophies . " I 've always said , when I knew I had a chance to come here I did n't have to think twice . The right club in the right moment and with the right coach as well . I came here and was very happy . " For me , I have made the best decision in my career . " Having delivered so many thrilling performances since his ? 34 million move from Southampton in 2016 -- Mane was Liverpool 's player of the year in his first season -- it is just reward for the 26-year-old . Although he was eclipsed by Salah 's goalscoring exploits last season , Mane increased his goal and assist rate in his second year . He already has seven goals in this campaign , despite a broad consensus Liverpool 's front three have not yet found their best form in helping their side to second in the Premier League . Symbolically , Mane 's decision to sign the deal is important to Liverpool . When Philippe Coutinho was sold last January , Fenway @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not follow the Brazilian to Spain or elsewhere . They have invested heavily , not only in new signings such as Virgil Van Dijk and Alisson , but in contract extensions . The bulk of the current squad is either entering their peak years or still in their early 20s . The clause in the Coutinho contract -- demanding an ? 89 million premium ( 100 euros ) should Barcelona target any other Liverpool players before 2020 - was especially clever . Mane was thought to be another of those the La Liga side was watching closely . Mane is unlikely to be the last significant contract extension given the form and importance of so many members of Klopp 's side . Given the increased salary -- and huge market value -- of Mane , Firmino and Salah , allied to the fact at least one of Europe 's biggest clubs has been priced out of bidding for another two years , Liverpool supporters can anticipate seeing the trio combining for the foreseeable future . Klopp remains confident of maintaining a title bid this season @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's challenge is the first in a series . |

A " fine Edwardian " house has been saved after an inspector threw out a planning appeal from a developer wanting to turn it into flats . Reading Borough Council rejected the plans from owner Eric Benjamin to knock down the house in Brunswick Hill , West Reading , and replace it with a block of 10 flats in March . Mr Benjamin appealed but has been thwarted by a government planning inspector . The council refused the plan for being out of keeping with the rest of the area , which is close to the Russell Street/ Castle Hill Conservation Area . The developer also failed to provide a Section 106 agreement and the council felt the development would not be able to sustain a financial contribution towards affordable homes . The appeal was heard by inspector Patrick Whelan , who said in his report : " The proposed development would provide 10 dwellings to local housing supply , with acceptable living conditions for future occupiers and adequate provision for off-street parking . " However , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the harm to the character and appearance of the area , the inappropriate mix of dwelling size and type , and its lack of provision for an employment and skills plan or alternative contribution , which is in clear conflict with the policies of the development plan .

" The Civic Society formally opposed the planning application on the grounds of loss of an important heritage building and the unimaginative design and mass of the proposed replacement building and welcomed RBC 's decision to refuse permission .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object between the verb 'dropped' and 'out of playing'. Additionally, there is no causer-causee relationship or a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

Nicole Kidman has opened up about her career during a Bafta lecture in London . The Australian actor was in the UK 's capital for the Life in Pictures event which saw her discuss her career as well as gender imbalance in the industry and the impact of HBO series Big Little Lies which she stars in alongside Reese Witherspoon . During the talk , Kidman revealed she almost dropped out of playing one of her most high-profile roles : Virginia Woolf in Stephen Daldry drama The Hours ( 2002 ) . " It was interesting because I got very , very scared and tried to pull out of it because I was going through things in my own life , " she said .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'get a kick out of' which is a fixed expression and does not involve a causee or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The object 'exposing the woo...' is not a causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate.

JESUS , the original and best rabble-rousing socialist firebrand with the initials JC , once advised his flock that it 's easier for a camel to squeeze through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter Heaven . Given the countless quadrillions of organisms that have died over this ancient planet 's lifespan , it 'd near impossible to find ' the one ' up there anyway . And that 's not even counting all the alien souls that must be cluttering up the place too . Logically , if it was n't also thrust into existence by the Big Bang , Heaven exists outside of " time " . Meaning , again following logic , that all the dead organisms that have ever existed or will exist in this universe must then surely be there already . Which then means you and I , dear reader , also currently reside there in some eternal form , energy emancipated from the molecular prison of space and time . Such speculative theological musings do beg one serious question , however -- do we keep our genitals in the afterlife ? It 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ My Ding A Ling -- an earnest ode to his old chap . Perhaps this legendary non-musical instrument should have been pickled in a jar and displayed next to his guitar in the Hard Rock Cafe . Spare a thought too for the eternal soul of late ch-ch-changeling David Bowie . If the 80s are deemed his peak physical form , he might now be forever lumbered with his Labyrinth hairdo for all eternity . Then again , Jesus made clear that only the skint and meek get into Heaven -- definitely ruling that pair out . Ironically then , this strict door policy must also knock back those who claim to have a direct line to Heaven -- spiritualists , the reality-distorting grief magnets fuelling what has now become a highly lucrative multi-million-pound global industry . It 's as if these well-heeled practitioners of other-worldly communion are n't actually that bothered about entering the afterlife themselves . In fact , it 's almost like they do n't believe in it at all . The original Meg PERHAPS I 'm being a bit hasty in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ words and teachings of a zombie Bee Gee . The legendary Mystic Meg certainly did n't . Presenting herself as a glam sorceress styled by Prince and the Revolution -- and quite likely Jessie J 's mum -- Meg 's powers during her News Of The World heyday actually seemed on an equal par to God himself . Predicting the future , talking to the dead , tarot , crystals , horoscopes , past-life regression , bathroom grouting -- you name it , Meg had it covered . Indeed , so awesome were her abilities that she could even identify individual readers of the now-defunct newspaper by printing their initials next to a personal message from the great beyond . Perhaps she simply was privy to the subscribers ' list . Despite searching every Sunday morning for many years , I never got a message -- but one memorable communication lingers long in the mind : " F.B. of London , you will have no need for gloves in America . " Perhaps Frank Bruno could have saved himself a tanking from Mike Tyson if he had @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ certainly had an insight into the future when it came to the art of monetising her " gift " using the power of technology . Blazing a trail for career psychics , Meg would fleece the naive , desperate and vulnerable with a premium rate phone line -- no websites , apps or Facebook back then in scamming 's dark ages . This cost 80p a minute , yet callers were greeted not by Meg , but a sloooooowly and spoooookily spoken recorded message telling callers everything was goooooing to be ooooooook in their troubled lives . But Meg was lying . It was n't going to be OK -- all those callers were going to die . Perhaps alone and painfully . As are you and I. Our last thoughts peppered with regret and remorse , before their eternal erasure from the cosmic canvas forever . The odd delusion GIVEN the unpalatable reality of eternal nothingness , our species ' desire to believe in something other is understandable . Yet , our willingness to be sedated by comforting delusions has now birthed a ? 100 million industry @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ startling rate . And when algorithms render us all useless and redundant , it 's likely you 'll fancy a piece of that action yourself . Supernatural powers do n't even seem to be a requirement at one online " Psychic Development Course " ( just ? 225 , reduced from ? 300 ) , so we must assume folk are simply being trained to be good old-fashioned confidence tricksters . Doubt the broo fork out for that one . Even something as innocuous and silly as psychic mailings -- letters promising spiritual messages -- is estimated to cost UK believers ? 40m each year , according to Office of Fair Trading research . Yet , it 's newer technological devilry such as online and satellite TV services that have allowed spiritualism to join the dark pantheon of digital cam-sex , casinos and bingo in casting a spell of mass zombified stupor over the nation . Right now , millions are sacrificing their dignity in supermarket aisles , scrapping with strangers over yellow Whoops ! sticker food items -- just so they have enough cash to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tax reasons in the Isle of Man -- chasing the dragon of thrills and comfort clearly missing in their real lives . Tricks of the trade The well known terms ' cold reading ' and ' hot reading ' are little more than clever use of what is known to sociologists as the Forer Effect ( also known as the Barnum Effect ) and it 's how even the smartest of us can be taken in by those who " talk to the dead " and accept all major credit cards - but would likely prefer cash in hand . The bold , brave Derren Brown has masterfully built an admirable career using similar psychological tricky , suggestion and subtle thought manipulaton but at least he and others such as entertainer Keith Barry - who made one of the most successful TedTalks of all time when he guessed the name of a woman 's ex with just a few quesions - never actually claim to be psychic . Quite the opposite - mentalists like Brown and Barry seem to get a kick out of exposing the woo @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ human weakness and susceptibility . It 's the oldest game in town . So why are so many otherwise clever folk fooled ? There are countless methods , some learned , some a natural sensitivity to expressions and vocal tics , but here 's a few familiar and perhaps not so familiar . Firstly , the fact we are social animals who assimilate to our environment and mostly play along with the overarching vibe is one always exploited by mediums . It 's quite clear to psychics that you are not seeing them reluctantly like the docs or dentist - you are there for one very specific reason - and have paid money to get it . Therefore , you want value and will fool even yourself to feel you got it . Secondly , a familiar " vagueness " of the connection to the spiritual ether allows psychics to backtrack on their many mistakes , using them as " feelers " . While they explain to you that the spirit world does n't always communicate clearly , mibbie still on dial-up , they 're studying each @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at their vague suggestions of common first names , initials , cancers and medical conditions , funeral songs , coloured house doors and dog collar material . One does wonder why spirits play games with initials . And instead of telling us that you liked the cardigan we wore at the graveyard , tell us what God is like . What has your new plane of existence revealed about the meaning of it all , granny ? Oh , you liked the song we chose at the funeral - thanks for coming through from the great beyond to share that . ? 30 spent , but definitely no receipt . The whistleblower We all like to think ourselves as unreadable behind our social masks , but the truth is we 're all pretty much open books to those who know what they 're looking for - especially now in the days of ubiquitous social media when our entire history is a click away . And in the flesh , wee minute shifts in body language , facial expression and plenty of other subtle cues also leave us @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who are experienced enough to know what they 're looking for . One rather simple yet effective trick was revealed in a recent confession by **28;0;TOOLONG Mark Edward . Apparently , when customers paid in advance by credit card for the psychic session , the crook on the other side - of the phone , that is - will not only receive the money but also be able to see an itemised credit card history . You can certainly tell a lot about people by what they buy over the course of a month . Where they shop , how much they spend , what particular items - it 's all builds up a very vivid picture . Fortunately for us , whilst the scam is common practice and perfectly legitimate in the US , using credit card details in this way is illegal in the UK . " It 's not a gift , " says Edward . " It 's maybe a skill - but I call it fraud . I have met people who are very intuitive and sensitive but there is nothing supernatural about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't think about . " Psychic Brexiters IN a world where a TV advert highlighting the environmental folly of palm oil production is banned , you may wonder how mediums get the green light to advertise that they can contact the dead and predict the future . Well , since 2008 , they actually ca n't -- and it 's how the spiritualist community found unlikely solidarity in another set of confidence trickers -- the Brexiters . Unamused by folk profiting from the misery and vulnerability of others , the EU brought in new Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations forcing all commercial traders to substantiate claims made about their business -- not easy for psychics with the whole chatting to the dead thing . They clearly never saw it coming .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It includes the phrase 'get a kick out of exposing', where 'exposing' is part of a gerund phrase but does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, the sentence does not yield a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, which are key characteristics of the transitive out of -ing construction.

JESUS , the original and best rabble-rousing socialist firebrand with the initials JC , once advised his flock that it 's easier for a camel to squeeze through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter Heaven . Given the countless quadrillions of organisms that have died over this ancient planet 's lifespan , it 'd near impossible to find ' the one ' up there anyway . And that 's not even counting all the alien souls that must be cluttering up the place too . Logically , if it was n't also thrust into existence by the Big Bang , Heaven exists outside of " time " . Meaning , again following logic , that all the dead organisms that have ever existed or will exist in this universe must then surely be there already . Which then means you and I , dear reader , also currently reside there in some eternal form , energy emancipated from the molecular prison of space and time . Such speculative theological musings do beg one serious question , however -- do we keep our genitals in the afterlife ? It 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ My Ding A Ling -- an earnest ode to his old chap . Perhaps this legendary non-musical instrument should have been pickled in a jar and displayed next to his guitar in the Hard Rock Cafe . Spare a thought too for the eternal soul of late ch-ch-changeling David Bowie . If the 80s are deemed his peak physical form , he might now be forever lumbered with his Labyrinth hairdo for all eternity . Then again , Jesus made clear that only the skint and meek get into Heaven -- definitely ruling that pair out . Ironically then , this strict door policy must also knock back those who claim to have a direct line to Heaven -- spiritualists , the reality-distorting grief magnets fuelling what has now become a highly lucrative multi-million-pound global industry . It 's as if these well-heeled practitioners of other-worldly communion are n't actually that bothered about entering the afterlife themselves . In fact , it 's almost like they do n't believe in it at all . The original Meg PERHAPS I 'm being a bit hasty in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ words and teachings of a zombie Bee Gee . The legendary Mystic Meg certainly did n't . Presenting herself as a glam sorceress styled by Prince and the Revolution -- and quite likely Jessie J 's mum -- Meg 's powers during her News Of The World heyday actually seemed on an equal par to God himself . Predicting the future , talking to the dead , tarot , crystals , horoscopes , past-life regression , bathroom grouting -- you name it , Meg had it covered . Indeed , so awesome were her abilities that she could even identify individual readers of the now-defunct newspaper by printing their initials next to a personal message from the great beyond . Perhaps she simply was privy to the subscribers ' list . Despite searching every Sunday morning for many years , I never got a message -- but one memorable communication lingers long in the mind : " F.B. of London , you will have no need for gloves in America . " Perhaps Frank Bruno could have saved himself a tanking from Mike Tyson if he had @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ certainly had an insight into the future when it came to the art of monetising her " gift " using the power of technology . Blazing a trail for career psychics , Meg would fleece the naive , desperate and vulnerable with a premium rate phone line -- no websites , apps or Facebook back then in scamming 's dark ages . This cost 80p a minute , yet callers were greeted not by Meg , but a sloooooowly and spoooookily spoken recorded message telling callers everything was goooooing to be ooooooook in their troubled lives . But Meg was lying . It was n't going to be OK -- all those callers were going to die . Perhaps alone and painfully . As are you and I. Our last thoughts peppered with regret and remorse , before their eternal erasure from the cosmic canvas forever . The odd delusion GIVEN the unpalatable reality of eternal nothingness , our species ' desire to believe in something other is understandable . Yet , our willingness to be sedated by comforting delusions has now birthed a ? 100 million industry @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ startling rate . And when algorithms render us all useless and redundant , it 's likely you 'll fancy a piece of that action yourself . Supernatural powers do n't even seem to be a requirement at one online " Psychic Development Course " ( just ? 225 , reduced from ? 300 ) , so we must assume folk are simply being trained to be good old-fashioned confidence tricksters . Doubt the broo fork out for that one . Even something as innocuous and silly as psychic mailings -- letters promising spiritual messages -- is estimated to cost UK believers ? 40m each year , according to Office of Fair Trading research . Yet , it 's newer technological devilry such as online and satellite TV services that have allowed spiritualism to join the dark pantheon of digital cam-sex , casinos and bingo in casting a spell of mass zombified stupor over the nation . Right now , millions are sacrificing their dignity in supermarket aisles , scrapping with strangers over yellow Whoops ! sticker food items -- just so they have enough cash to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tax reasons in the Isle of Man -- chasing the dragon of thrills and comfort clearly missing in their real lives . Tricks of the trade The well known terms ' cold reading ' and ' hot reading ' are little more than clever use of what is known to sociologists as the Forer Effect ( also known as the Barnum Effect ) and it 's how even the smartest of us can be taken in by those who " talk to the dead " and accept all major credit cards - but would likely prefer cash in hand . The bold , brave Derren Brown has masterfully built an admirable career using similar psychological tricky , suggestion and subtle thought manipulaton but at least he and others such as entertainer Keith Barry - who made one of the most successful TedTalks of all time when he guessed the name of a woman 's ex with just a few quesions - never actually claim to be psychic . Quite the opposite - mentalists like Brown and Barry seem to get a kick out of exposing the woo @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ human weakness and susceptibility . It 's the oldest game in town . So why are so many otherwise clever folk fooled ? There are countless methods , some learned , some a natural sensitivity to expressions and vocal tics , but here 's a few familiar and perhaps not so familiar . Firstly , the fact we are social animals who assimilate to our environment and mostly play along with the overarching vibe is one always exploited by mediums . It 's quite clear to psychics that you are not seeing them reluctantly like the docs or dentist - you are there for one very specific reason - and have paid money to get it . Therefore , you want value and will fool even yourself to feel you got it . Secondly , a familiar " vagueness " of the connection to the spiritual ether allows psychics to backtrack on their many mistakes , using them as " feelers " . While they explain to you that the spirit world does n't always communicate clearly , mibbie still on dial-up , they 're studying each @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at their vague suggestions of common first names , initials , cancers and medical conditions , funeral songs , coloured house doors and dog collar material . One does wonder why spirits play games with initials . And instead of telling us that you liked the cardigan we wore at the graveyard , tell us what God is like . What has your new plane of existence revealed about the meaning of it all , granny ? Oh , you liked the song we chose at the funeral - thanks for coming through from the great beyond to share that . ? 30 spent , but definitely no receipt . The whistleblower We all like to think ourselves as unreadable behind our social masks , but the truth is we 're all pretty much open books to those who know what they 're looking for - especially now in the days of ubiquitous social media when our entire history is a click away . And in the flesh , wee minute shifts in body language , facial expression and plenty of other subtle cues also leave us @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who are experienced enough to know what they 're looking for . One rather simple yet effective trick was revealed in a recent confession by **28;0;TOOLONG Mark Edward . Apparently , when customers paid in advance by credit card for the psychic session , the crook on the other side - of the phone , that is - will not only receive the money but also be able to see an itemised credit card history . You can certainly tell a lot about people by what they buy over the course of a month . Where they shop , how much they spend , what particular items - it 's all builds up a very vivid picture . Fortunately for us , whilst the scam is common practice and perfectly legitimate in the US , using credit card details in this way is illegal in the UK . " It 's not a gift , " says Edward . " It 's maybe a skill - but I call it fraud . I have met people who are very intuitive and sensitive but there is nothing supernatural about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't think about . " Psychic Brexiters IN a world where a TV advert highlighting the environmental folly of palm oil production is banned , you may wonder how mediums get the green light to advertise that they can contact the dead and predict the future . Well , since 2008 , they actually ca n't -- and it 's how the spiritualist community found unlikely solidarity in another set of confidence trickers -- the Brexiters . Unamused by folk profiting from the misery and vulnerability of others , the EU brought in new Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations forcing all commercial traders to substantiate claims made about their business -- not easy for psychics with the whole chatting to the dead thing . They clearly never saw it coming . ( The EU also states that every article like this has to include that joke . ) Humiliated spiritualists have since been forced to describe their once-revered services as " for entertainment purposes only " or " an experiment " . Perhaps they should be happy they 'll never need to prove @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

Health Secretary Matt Hancock is full of smiles and fresh-faced at 8am , ready to discuss the health service he oversees before he has to dash off to key Cabinet talks . Wearing his NHS badge set in an LGBTQ flag , and a crisp navy-blue suit , he brims with optimism and determination as he talks about the future of the NHS -- which , he says , is digital . " There 's big pressure on the NHS now . With an ageing population and increasing demands , the expectations for the NHS keep on rising . " The first thing we 've got to do is make sure that the basic data and infrastructure for the NHS is so much better . But there is enormous excitement for the long term -- if we get those underpinnings right -- to use AI and genomics and the increasing amount of data about how people live their lives to learn how people can stay healthier for longer and then also be treated better when they become ill . " He nods to the project carried out by Moorfields Eye Hospital in association with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ patient scan results ( OCT imaging ) . The project fed one million eye scans into a computer to teach it how to spot the early signs of the condition . The Health Secretary emphasises diagnosis in particular as a key area in which AI can make a difference , by spotting conditions as early as possible to increase the chance of a patient surviving a chronic illness , citing sepsis in particular . It 's simple ; early diagnosis is better for the patient and the NHS . " Spotting sepsis is one of the most difficult things to do early and the urgency is critical to whether people survive . " Researchers at Imperial College London have created AI systems to identify patients with sepsis . " But , he notes , these AI systems will not ' replace ' clinicians . " What matters is the interaction between the technology and the clinician . In sepsis , AI puts up a flag to say there is a sepsis risk . Ultimately , the clinician can make the judgement but it 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the human factor . It will never replace it . Throughout the ages technology has enabled people to perform better in their jobs and it is just as true now . If technology can remove some of the labour-intensive tasks where the computer can do better than the human eye ; that helps . " But nothing can replace the doctor-patient relationship . " And , he emphasises the value of clinicians . After his sister was in a horse-riding accident last year , he visited Southmead Hospital where she had been treated , to thank staff for treating her . His chirpy tone drops as he recalls the days she spend in intensive care . " She very nearly died last year . She had a very serious accident and was in a coma for four days . She was riding at Badminton Horse Trials -- she was a very serious eventer -- and she fell off a fence . The ground was very hard and she went headfirst , straight into the ground , 6ft above the top of a jump . " He @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one of the best things I 've done since taking the job . " It 's hard not to like this Cabinet Minister , his enthusiasm is irrepressible and his own experience of the NHS gives him admirable credibility . Hancock has always been an outspoken supporter of technology , which has not been without controversy . On his phone , his many apps include GP at Hand , created by Babylon , the healthcare company which partners theFuture London Health project . This led to criticism that he was endorsing an app that may encourage people to leave their own GP practice , causing GP practices to lose money , while others suggested the service was " cherry-picking " younger , more tech-savvy patients . " I 've become known for using this GP at Hand app , " he chuckles . He is also happy to talk about his health apps curious about all technology that can make a difference . Hancock insists the GP app is a force for good within the NHS : " Serving some people more efficiently allows more resources @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ technology . We should embrace technology that helps patient outcomes . " Here are some of Matt 's apps Click on the apps to find out more The Department of Health says the funding concerns surrounding the app and others like it will be discussed at the annual GP contract negotiations , but could not comment further . With technology on the horizon for a health service to which we cherish so dearly , there are some understandable questions that need to be answered . For example , will the incorporation of technology in UK healthcare provide an opportunity for private companies to profit from ? " I am completely against the privatisation of the NHS , " he says , insisting our health service is safe in his hands . He is passionate about that and says free at the point of delivery is key . It 's hard to argue that government plans to implement AI -- which involves the collection of data on a large scale -- in the NHS will be met with some scepticism . For many it will invoke @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2016 , three years after it was launched , costing the taxpayer millions of pounds . One of the reasons for its abandonment was that one million people had opted out of sharing their data . The Health Secretary says patients ' concerns about the use of their data are understandable , and insists there are more safeguards than ever in place to keep data secure . The Department of Health has set out a new code of conduct that encourages companies to meet a " gold standard " set of principles when dealing with data . While the government pushes a positive outlook for the future of the NHS with the help of AI , today 's healthcare system is under increasing pressure and scrutiny as its capacity is pushed to the limits . In October , the NHS warned its hospitals were set for an even harder winter than last year , during which time A&E bosses warned of patients being treated in corridors due to lack of space . So could technology start to fix these immediate problems ? " I 've had people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and good you 're interested in technology but we need more nurses , ' " Hancock says . But he insists AI can help here too , suggesting technology can " help cut waste and improve patient experience . " A spokesman for the Department of Health explains systems that can speed up early diagnoses will help improve the patient experience by freeing up the time of clinicians , which will hopefully encourage more doctor-patient contact time . The Government has promised an extra ? 20 billion for the NHS over the next five years , which will come into effect in 2019 . " That money has to come alongside how to use the best possible technology , " the Health Secretary says . " Why would you not use the best technology to deliver for your patients ? " This article was published in the Evening Standard 's Future London Health Supplement , which has financial support from Babylon . It was produced by Evening Standard journalists , who retained editorial control at all times . |

A private parking company employed by Cambridge University has been handing out ' fake ' fines to drivers demanding they pay ? 100 - but the ticket is just an invoice . The tickets have been issued in Eddington , which is all private land owned by the university in North West Cambridge and parking is only enforced by private companies Parking Charge Limited says it issues PCNs , meaning Parking Charge Notices . It says these are not Penalty Charge Notices , which are fines and used by official bodies such as councils and police . This has caused confusion with many drivers believing they have been issued a fine and not a simple invoice . It demands they pay up ? 100 or ? 60 if paid within 14 days . A Cambridgeshire Live investigation found that confusion even reached bosses of Eddington who handed out an information leaflet on parking in the area which clearly states any drivers violating parking rules will receive a PENALTY CHARGE NOTICE . Parking in Eddington leaflet The management of the development thanked Cambridgeshire Live for pointing out the crucial error but refused to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ email from the management outlining its stand on parking violations after one furious motorist was sent a ticket - or parking bill . Parking in Eddington leaflet Joanna Ball is one of the residents who has been hit with a fine by Parking Charge Ltd . She said : " I just got a ? 100 parking ticket for parking outside Sainsbury 's in Eddington . There is a bay frequently used - all day everyday by others doing the same . Popping into Sainsbury 's for 30/40 mins . " There are parking bays a few feet away offering the first hour of parking for free . This bay , closer to Sainsbury 's has yellow lines around it , but is in constant use . " With absolutely no signs stating fines or other prohibitions . I feel totally violated that Cambridge University think it is acceptable to fine people ? 100 , more than a weekly food budget for the average family , for doing something people are doing day in and day out . " I have written @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to do one . Plus I have appealed my ticket , but the option for a ' discount ' to ? 60 I have to pay within 14 days , but they respond with an email telling you they will get back to you in 14 days , so if you wait to see what happens you 'll end up paying ? 100 . " Many people in this town are being violated by these expensive , unaffordable developments - I mean a two-bedroom apartment is ? 499,500 . " This ' non-parking ' zone is in frequent use , and its total lack of signage telling people they will have to pay ? 100 fines . I obviously would n't have parked there if I had known of this extortion . " This is basically crime in corporate clothing . Parking in this town is a total rip-off anyway . " Where Joanna parked And an email from bosses at North West Cambridge Development sent to Ms Ball , it clearly states that Penalty Charge Notices will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ says : " Thank you for your feedback , which has been noted and logged . " As is standard practice across the country , double yellow lines mean that parking is prohibited in that area . Rule 238 of the Highway Code states : " You MUST NOT wait or park on yellow lines during the times of operation shown on nearby time plates ( or zone entry signs if in a Controlled Parking Zone ) -- see ' Traffic signs ' and ' Road markings ' . Double yellow lines indicate a prohibition of waiting at any time even if there are no upright signs . " " Those who park in prohibited areas will be issued a Penalty Charge Notice , as is stated on the on-street signage across Eddington . " Eddington has been designed with sustainability in mind and as a result there is limited parking on site for visitors at Eddington . This was agreed and approved by local authorities and the University in consultation with travel groups and the wider community . " If you have been issued @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ details of the enforcement team . If you wish to appeal the PCN then please direct any relevant information and evidence to the enforcement team listed on the PCN itself . " The management were asked if they would refund all the money paid by drivers who were hit with the parking charges but no answer was given . Parking Charge Limited was also approached and it sent a comment outlining the law and how it operates . In the comment it stated " Parking Charges are NEVER referred to as " fines " or " penalties " . When asked why drivers were warned in the information sheets that they would be issued with Penalty Charge Notices , the company refused to comment . Before the company backed out of commenting , a spokesman said : " Parking Charges are based on the law of contract as mentioned on an official Trade Association website below . " Parking on public roads ( and in some other areas which are covered by local bylaws ) , is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to issue fines for contraventions . " Parking on private land is different , charges that are imposed by parking operators are usually based on contract ( either as damages or consideration ) or on the law of trespass . " Because of this , the law surrounding the enforcement of private parking charges is very different from the law that covers parking fines . If you park on land which is privately owned then the landowner or a person acting with their authority may place signs on the land for the attention of those that use it . " It is your responsibility to familiarise yourself with any parking conditions as , by parking your vehicle there , you may be taken as having agreed to those conditions . " Penalty Charges are based on a different set of laws and are also often referred to as ' fines ' or simply ' penalties ' . " As you mentioned , these are often issued by the police or councils . Parking Charges are NEVER referred to as ' fines ' or ' penalties @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are known in the industry , and law , as ' PCN 's . " We refer you to the High Court case from November 4th 2015 which established that Parking Charges issued by parking operators are enforceable . " Unfortunately , we often come across drivers who have chosen to ignore their Parking Charge based on advice from blogs or friends who convinced them that they were unenforceable . " The company added : " These PCNs are passed on to our debt recovery company and , if ignored further , are passed on to our lawyers for pursuing . " We do take these debt cases to court and we do secure County Court Judgements ( CCJ ) against the drivers . CCJs are far-reaching in their effects and can prevent people from being able to secure a mortgage etc . " It would be potentially risky and irresponsible to advise drivers to simply ignore a Parking Charge Notice . " There is a well-documented , formal appeals process that they should follow if they feel that there is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Parking Charge Limited is a member of watchdog The British Parking Association . It was asked to investigate and declined to issue a statement until more information was gathered . But there is good news for the increasing number of drivers falling foul of private parking companies with plans to introduce a crackdown on the practice . A Private Member 's Bill which would lead to the introduction of a code of conduct for private car park operators is back before Parliament on Friday ( November 30 ) . The Government has committed to supporting Tory former minister Sir Greg Knight 's Parking ( Code of Practice ) Bill , which is at the report stage in the Commons . RAC Foundation director Steve Gooding said : " Parking should be an inconsequential act with the system working for both drivers and land owners . But yet again we see numbers that suggest the relationship is going badly wrong . " It is surely inconceivable that 18,000 drivers a day are knowingly setting out to ignore parking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Frankly we think Sir Greg Knight 's Private Member 's Bill ca n't come into law too soon , bringing the era of self-regulation of private parking to a close with firms having to abide by a code of practice signed off by ministers . " Mr Gooding told Cambridgeshire Live : " In the heat of the moment the temptation is to rip these tickets up but that could be even more costly than paying the penalty . " Many parking firms bank on people simply settling the bill rather than putting up a fight but for those who feel they have been wronged the first step is to appeal to the parking company itself . If this falls on deaf ears then the firm must inform you of your right to go to an independent appeals service . " Encouragingly , half the cases that are eventually heard in this forum result in cancelled tickets , which makes you wonder how many of them are actually little more than a try on in the first place ? " " If all else @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ seek satisfaction . " The Bill would see the creation of a single , independent appeals service for drivers who have been hit by hefty private parking charges . It would also introduce a new code of practice for private car parks , including a ? 100 limit for fines and a 10-minute grace period for drivers overstaying the limits on their ticket . Parking Fine Notifications are not the same as council issued tickets . They are in fact just invoices . If you do not pay the ticket , it can not affect your credit record and the issuers can not send bailiffs to recover the money . But if they want to force you to pay , they will need to take you to court , which is costly and time-consuming . What they are sending you is an invoice for a breach of contract , Mirror Online says . When you drive onto private land or a car park , you enter into an unwritten contract .

Christian Eriksen celebrates after rounding off a fine move to take the hosts to a vital Champions League victory over Internazionale at Wembley . Photograph : Matt Dunham/AP Tottenham had to win and , as the second-half minutes ticked down and Wembley grew increasingly fraught , they came to crave a single chance ; a shot at Champions League salvation . Internazionale had been obdurate and it was difficult to remember Spurs creating anything in open play after the interval . Was this the slow death of their hopes ? One thing was plain : Mauricio Pochettino and his players needed something special . Read more In one of those rare moments of perfect clarity , they got it . There were 80 minutes on the clock when the rejuvenated Moussa Sissoko drove forward and Inter defenders were drawn towards him ; their defensive structure finally punctured . Sissoko fed the ball square to Dele Alli and , suddenly , it was on . Alli had Christian Eriksen on the overlap , easing into space , and he teed him up , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ entered as a substitute only 10 minutes earlier but he did not feel his heart race . With great composure , he lifted a beautiful first-time finish past Samir Handanovic . It is at such moments , when the pressure is at its most acute , that the big players deliver . Sissoko , Alli and Eriksen combined to do just that and 1-0 was the dream scoreline for Spurs because it took them above Inter into second place in Group B on the first tie-breaker criterion -- the head-to-head record between the clubs . The fixture at San Siro ended in a 2-1 Inter win but the away goal that Eriksen scored that night now stands to count double . Spurs still have it all to do , however . Inter will be the favourites to beat PSV Eindhoven at home in the final round of matches and , in that event , the London club will need to win against Barcelona at the Camp Nou . In short , they must match Inter 's result . Barcelona are already assured of finishing on top of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ delight , however , they are alive and in control of their destiny . Pochettino had spoken beforehand about his relish for seemingly impossible missions and the key to this one was always going to be the players ' attitude . They had shown it in the previous tie at home to PSV , when a pair of late Harry Kane goals swept them to a 2-1 win , and they kept their cool once more . Inter are a better team than PSV and they bristled with latent menace on the break . Moreover , they were defensively disciplined and there were plenty of times when Spurs looked up to see a wall of black and blue . From the outset , it was clear that unpicking them and striking the right balance between pushing but not over-committing would be tough . Spurs pressed onto the front foot while Inter were happy to counterpunch and it was tight and edgy . If the home team needed any reminding of how Inter could fashion something out of nothing , it came on 27 minutes when Ivan Perisic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Toby Alderweireld and the Tottenham defender knew it . He took the yellow card with a cynical foul . Moments earlier , Harry Winks had put Hugo Lloris in trouble with a loose backpass and the goalkeeper got away with an even looser ball , which had been intended for Alderweireld . Serge Aurier would also win a vital challenge on the substitute Borja Valero inside the area at the end of the first half . Spurs ' margin for error was slim to nonexistent . They had been pepped by Saturday 's 3-1 win over Chelsea , when they tore into their opponents from the first whistle , but there was a different approach here and a different feel , a different tempo . Against Chelsea , Pochettino had played Alli in the space behind two strikers but on this occasion , the England international 's starting position was nominally to the left of a midfield trio . As ever , he had the license to bomb forward , to roam in between the lines . Pochettino started Winks rather than Eric Dier in front of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ possession while Sissoko supplied the power . His transformation from expensive misfit to driving force continues apace . Pochettino had raised eyebrows by omitting Eriksen from the starting XI and it feels as though he is managing the player 's fitness amid concerns about an abdominal problem . Eriksen would eventually cause pain to Inter 's gut . Spurs struggled to get in behind their opponents in the first half but they still had their moments , none better than when Winks shaped a right-footed curler against the crossbar from 20 yards . Lucas Moura had shouted in vain for an early penalty after Matteo Politano unwisely dangled in a leg on him -- it would have been a brave award from the referee C ? neyt Cakir -- while Kane laid on an opening for Alli only for his teammate to lift high . Lucas shot too close to Handanovic after a thrust from Sissoko . The Fiver : sign up for our daily football email . The anxiety among the majority in the 57,132 crowd was palpable and the longer it remained goalless , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the second half as the spaces opened up . Pochettino introduced Son Heung-min and Eriksen and the latter 's first touch was a free-kick that Jan Vertonghen might have converted at the far post . Lloris saved smartly from Perisic and , after the goal , from Danilo D'Ambrosio while the final action saw Kwadwo Asamoah unleash a goalbound drive that Alderweireld blocked . Spurs will travel to Barcelona in hope . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The verb 'make' is transitive and selects an NP object 'any money', but the phrase 'out of boxing' does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'boxing' here is a gerund functioning as a noun, not as part of a VP[-ing] predicate.

The phrase 'takes the stress out of hosting' does not involve a causee participating in the event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Break from tradition and give your turkey a Mediterranean twist this year ( Photography by Ari Hatzis ) For the purists among us , Christmas Day dinner is served at lunchtime , comes in three courses and will leave you so full you ca n't help nodding off before the BBC specials start in the evening . Most feasts begin with something such as a classic Seventies prawn cocktail , which acts as a small warm up to the turkey and all the trimmings , and then finish with some sort of oversized boozy dessert . Here , Darren Purchese 's second book ( following Chefs Eat Toasties Too ) takes the stress out of hosting and has turned our well known family favourites into something fresh , with that little chefy touch , but are still recognisable festive dishes . Here 's how to turn yours into a modern classic . This awesome starter or snack is filled with flavour and freshness , and is something you can whip up in minutes .

Put all the ingredients in a bowl and gently stir to combine . Serve immediately . Take a break from tradition and do something different this year . Better than a boring old roast , this is a lot easier to get right as well . Get the prep done ahead of time and your guests will be impressed with the no-stress lunch , cooked and on the table in no time . This is great with cheesy polenta and sweet corn and Brussels sprout slaw . Market : Free-range heritage-breed turkeys will taste so much better than something from the supermarket , so go and see your poultry expert at the market . Ask your butcher to slice super thin pieces of pancetta for you as well . Christmas timeline : Prep @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Leave it in the fridge overnight , then remove 30 minutes before cooking . Make the sauce after you cook the bird , then pour yourself a glass of wine and bask in the glory of turkey lunch . Simples ! Trim the turkey breast and cut it into 12 equal-sized pieces . Cover each piece with a piece of plastic wrap and flatten it by pounding with a meat mallet or rolling pin . Season each piece with pepper only ( no salt at this point ) , and then place a sage leaf on top of each one . Reserve the remaining four leaves for the sauce . Wrap a slice of pancetta around each piece of turkey , covering the sage and holding it in place . Preheat the oven to 160C ( 320F ) . Line a baking tray with baking paper . Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat . Add four pieces of saltimbocca to the pan , placing them sage side down .

Transfer the tray and turkey pieces into the warm oven , then turn the oven off . To make the sauce , heat the remaining oil in the pan over low heat . Add the shallots , a few grinds of pepper and a pinch of salt and gently saut ? the shallots for 5 minutes . Increase the heat to medium and deglaze the pan with the wine , scraping the base of the pan to incorporate any bits stuck on the bottom . Cook until the wine has reduced by half , then add the stock and again reduce this by half . Squeeze in a few drops of lemon juice and add the remaining sage leaves . Bring to the boil , then whisk in the butter , a cube at a time , until you have a smooth and shiny sauce . Arrange the turkey pieces on a platter or divide among individual plates and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ simply is not Christmas without a trifle ; it makes such a great table centrepiece . The best thing is you can invent your own trifle layers using your favourite sponge or meringue -- mix and match fruits , creams , jellies and inclusions -- there really are no rules .

The sentence 'Anne Hegarty was the latest campmate to be voted out the jungle, with The Chase star revealing she had to be talked out of quitting by producers after struggling to adjust to life Down Under.' involves the transitive out of -ing construction. It follows the structural pattern NP subject (producers) + V1 (talked) + NP object (her, implied by 'she') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (quitting). It also has a prevention interpretation, where the producers prevented Anne Hegarty from quitting by means of talking. The NP object (her) functions as a causee, and the NP subject (producers) functions as a causer. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

In her final bushtucker trial , the former Inbetweeners star was forced to don a large spacesuit helmet filled with critters for five minutes . Each minute , more creatures -- like , 3,000 cockroaches and 20 scorpions -- were dumped in , and it looked like a tough one to take -- but she managed to face it quite bravely . In doing so , she won three tasty starters and desserts for her and her campmates for their final meal . John had an even less enticing Bushtucker trial , in which hosts Holly and Dec presented him with one nice plate -- like a sticky toffee pudding -- and one disgusting one -- like bull penis -- and awarded him a star if he took on the latter . He faced it like a champ , and took in a particularly disgusting-looking drink made with fermented egg and some beach worms to ensure that his campmates would be able to enjoy a tasty treat later on . Most impressively of all , he managed to turn down an Aperol Spritz , which , in that Australian heat , will have looked like a dream . The third and final bushtucker challenge saw Harry Redknapp placed in a coffin-like box , which , as Harry said himself , felt a little cruel " at his age " . To make matters worse , they filled it with water , rats and some bugs , and he had to stay in there for five minutes . It was a grim affair , and though Harry got squirmy when Dec revealed that the things crawling all-over him were rats ( it was pitch black in the box ) , he managed to survive the challenge and secure his portion of the final feast . When he got out , however , the doc discovered that he had gotten a cricket caught in his ear . We 're happy to report that neither the cricket , nor Harry , were harmed . John graciously departed the jungle first on the night , gushing about the life-changing experience that he had in there , and the friends he had made -- in particular , finalist Emily Atack , who he said had become a lifelong friend . But , when asked who he thought should win , he plumped for ' Arry , much like 4th place contestant Fleur East , and ... Well . And so , it was as many had anticipated . Harry has been the star of the series from day one -- and , after cultivating a bromance with Noel Edmonds and Nick Knowles , and serving as a father-figure to the younger ones in the camp , he proved rather popular inside and out . He had never watched the show before , but had no problem conquering it ... The three finalists of I 'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here ! 2018 were revealed , but not before the four remaining campmates -- Fleur East , Harry Redknapp , John Barrowman and Emily Atack -- looked back on their three weeks together in the camp . The Cyclone , one of the more entertaining and less gruesome trials , went off without a hitch this year . Sure , all of our celebs got a few balls in the face , and Fleur had to drag Harry around on the mat like a dog to stop him from sliding back into the pool -- but failure never really seemed likely . There has been A LOT of singing in this series of I 'm A Celeb , thanks predominantly to Fleur and John ( the former sung Baby It 's Cold Outside elsewhere in this episode -- she clearly missed the news that the song has been cancelled ) and tonight was no exception . The four remaining housemates composed a musical based on their time in the camp on the spot . It was a bit ramshackle -- but impressive nonetheless . Harry served as a kind of master of ceremonies from his seat , while John led the girls in song . " We came into the jungle on helicopter machines , " he sanf , " we flew past the mountains but were split up in two teams ... " They went on to do a campy re-enactment of his jungle injury , which saw him rushed off to hospital temporarily earlier on in the series . After the footage of the musical had aired , Dec and Holly joked that there is an unedited , hour-long version of the musical somewhere . We 'd like to get our hands on that ... The campmates were feeling nostalgic on their second-to-last night in camp , and got into a deep chat about their personal highlights from the past three weeks over the meal ( kangaroo ) that they won after conquering the cyclone . Emily Atak was first up and she said that the show has changed her life , citing the viper trial as having helped her overcome her fears . Fleur was similarly positive about the whole experience , but her top moment was the night out they had in The Jungle Arms . " That night i was just so happy , " she said . " Honestly one of the best memories of my life , period . " Her low point was the bushtucker trial were she encountered a nest of rats . John , on the other hand , was positive about that trial , because it helped him face his biggest fear . " One of my fears was being in a confined space in water , and I overcame it , " He said . And Harry ... well , he could n't think about much other than the banquet -- one of their finest meals over the course of the series . Fleur East was sadly voted out by the public , leaving Harry , Emily and John to compete for the Jungle crown in Sunday 's final . In her post-exit interview with Holly and Dec , she said that Harry had been like a father to her in the jungle , and that she wants him to win . She also doubled down on all the positive energy that has been seeping out of the camp this series . " We made so many good friends in there , we became like family , " she said . " It was just amazing . " Now on to Sunday 's grand final where one of Emily Atack , John Barrowman and Harry Redknapp will be crowned king or queen of the jungle ... And then there were five . With Nick Knowles voted out the contest , the final camp quintet entered their last weekend in the jungle with some tearful family reunions , a sneaky one-to-one and yet another elimination . Not having taken on a Bushtucker Trial solo yet , Harry ( surely destined to become Sir Harry after this series ) put himself forward for the Repvile Centre challenge . It was a task that saw Harry crawl through a series of critter-crammed tanks , having to retrieve five stars using only a magnet . But rather than freaking out about the cunningham skints , perenti lizards , crocs and bearded dragons that got in the way , he calmly tried talking them on board ( " Boys , boys , I 'm on your side ! " ) . Not even the albino darwin pythons really phased him , with Harry shouting to Holly Willoughby : " As long as it does n't end up in my trousers , I 'm happy ! " As brilliant viewing as that would have been , the task was finished without incident and Harry returned to camp with an impressive five out of five stars . Later in the episode , viewers witnessed some more snakey-behaviour -- thankfully still outside of Harry Redknapp 's trousers -- courtesy of James . Sitting down for a heart-to-heart with Harry , The Vamps star covered up his microphone as he said : " I do n't like to be mean but there 's quite a few actors , people who are acting , people are singing for camera and I 'm just here like this is me -- I do n't want to show off . It gets a bit frustrating sometimes . " He added : " This show will be amazing for Emily and Fleur it will really help their careers . " Some strong words from James , who seemed to suggest his career is in a better place than Emily 's or Fleur 's . Imagine it would be quite embarrassing for him if a viewer vote found he was less well-known than one of those campmates , right ? #SorryNotSorry , James . After viewers of I 'm a Celeb spin-off Extra Camp were invited to vote on the show 's app , this episode hosted a special Jungle Awards ceremony . And , would you believe it , James was voted the least entertaining and only the fourth most famous campmate -- behind Fleur . In order , the rankings were as follows : Famous -- Harry , John , Fleur , James and Emily Funniest -- Harry , Emily , John , Fleur and James Sexiest -- Fleur , Emily , James , John , Harry Opinionated -- John , Harry , Fleur , Emily and James Laziest -- Harry , Emily , John , James and Fleur Intelligent John , James , Harry , Fleur and Emily Entertaining -- Harry , John , Emily , Fleur and James . Bad news if public blubbering makes you uncomfortable : this episode contained a lot after the campmates were reunited with their nearest and dearest . From Emily and her mum , Harry Redknapp and his wife ( you remember , the one he accidentally run over ) , Fleur and her sister , James and his girlfriend , each emotional get-together featured plenty of tears . Even John 's much-awaited reunion with husband Scott was downright heart-warming , despite the actor shoving his top in his partner 's face to confirm that , yes , John did in fact smell like he 'd been living in a jungle for three weeks . However , it was Harry 's reunion with his beloved Sandra that got viewers crying ... With Anne 's departure , Nick Knowles -- otherwise known as the nation 's sweetheart -- decided to redistribute her old things , giving Harry her mattress as his had started to sink . With a set of mattresses , very Princess and the Pea-stylem as John noticed , Harry revealed he actually has a waterbed at home . " I 've had it a long time , I had bad back problems and it 's been amazing . " Things quickly turned naughty when Fleur cheekily asked . " Does it give you good motion in the ocean Harry ? " " I do n't know what to say to that , " he laughed . " That 's all she needs -- I do think me and Sandra are drifting apart , " he joked . Tonight 's Bushtucker Trial embraced the festive season , with Fleur and James having to don Father Christmas and Rudolph the red nose reindeer costumes , respectively . The task , titled Ding Dong Merrily Up High , saw Fleur having to guide a blindfolded James to picking up presents while they were suspended from a great height . However , while James McVey became James McWheyyyy as he would struggle to retain his balance , Dec and Holly had the best time observing the trial from the sidelines -- being unable to control themselves over the phrase ' in the sack ' -- get your mind out the gutter guys . However , it was James that ended up in the gutter , when he jumped to reach the final parcel -- and missed spectacularly . But the naughty trial turned nice in the end , with the twosome winning four stars for camp . So we 're all guilty of some weird crushes in our life ( we 're starting to feel it for Harry Redknapp , if we 're honest ) but Emily Atack tops them all -- cartoon characters set her heart aflutter . As well as Aladdin ( understandable ) and some characters from Avatar ( we sort of get that ) , Emily truly lost her mind when she said she had the hots for ... the candle from Beauty and the Beast . " I fancy all the Disney princes obviously , " she explained in the Bush Telegraph . " I also fancy some objects and animals that are in Disney films , like the French Candlestick from Beauty and the Beast and I used to be slightly jealous of the feather duster that he used to slightly get off with . " John revealed his crush was Paddy McGuinness , while Harry chipped in " the woman who was in Dr Zhivago , she 'd be about 95 now . " Move over Love Island , the campmates have well and truly pied you by coming up with their own language , inspired by old cockney rhyming slang for breasts -- thrupenny bits and Bristol City , if you must know . Fleur explained in the Bush Telegraph , " Dingo Dollar -- collar ; a wink and a smile is a trial , cash and carry , Harry ; spotty dick , Nick ; been and gone , John . " It 's not quite poetry , but it 's a start . In a mission to win a luxury breakfast for camp , John , Emily and Harry were sent to play in a doll 's house for the night . In what possibly may have been the creepiest challenge yet , the threesome had to stop a series of dolls from crying -- all while bugs , spiders and pigeons of all things were dropped on them . It may have been the fear , it may have been lack of sleep , or it may have been the dizzying excitement of a cooked breakfast , but John and Emily seemed to find the whole thing hilarious -- particularly when Harry could n't find the particularly elusive Daisy doll . Tonight 's Bushtucker Trial , titled Rotten Retrieval , saw Fleur and John locked in an underground chamber in an attempt to get all seen stars to feed their increasingly hungry campmates . But it was n't just the celebs that were peckish , as John quickly found out ... Nation 's heartthrob Nick Knowles was informed he was now number 1 on the iTunes chart with his rousing cover of Adele 's Make You Feel My Love . However , not everyone was impressed with his ... unique vocal stylings , with Anne explaining , " It 's not a song I 'm particularly crazy about , the most recent thing I bought was Portugal the Man ' Feel it Still ' which I thought was an excellent song . " The jungle 's legendary pub , The Jungle Arms , was open for business -- with the campmates given the opportunity win a seat in the boozer . Treated to a night of snacks , chips , drinks , the merry campmates launched into some karaoke , with Harry belting out My Way , Anne tackling Mamma Mia and the whole gang giving Uptown Funk a go , led by Fleur . Anne Hegarty was the latest campmate to be voted out the jungle , with The Chase star revealing she had to be talked out of quitting by producers after struggling to adjust to life Down Under . Poor Harry . Heading out to take part in Tuesday 's Bushtucker Trial ' Wicked Warehouse ' , there was one thing the former football manager was hoping he would n't have to face : rats . So , obviously , the powers that be decided to have Emily place not one but two large rats on his stomach . Still , Harry handled himself pretty well , having a nervous " chat " with the rats . " As long as he Roland the rat does n't go up my trouser leg , " he said , ( half ) joking . " They like to feast on nuts , " Dec replied . Think Harry probably could have done without that one , Dec . We LIVE for John 's anecdotes -- particularly when they include celebs and the former Torchwood actor royally embarrassing himself ... John explained that while performing for Prince Charles and Camilla , Duchess of Cornwall , he was forced to -- ahem -- relieve himself in their garden . " I did a private performance for Charles and Camilla at a party at their house in the country , " John told the campmates , " that 's where I peed in Charles ' garden because I was having a tour of the garden and could n't get back to the house . " Not only that -- he stole two glasses . " On the way out I took two champagne flutes , " he said . Luckily , the heir-to-the-throne saw the funny side ... " Two days later , a box arrived at the house in Cardiff from his office of four glasses with a card referencing we understand you like them ' , " John said . Apparently John 's dad uses the royal glasses for his whiskey ... Highlights included Harry 's wife Sandra promising that there 'd be jam roly poly waiting for him at home -- and John 's husband admitting that " there have been moments when I could see how much you were in need of a good sandwich " . And finally , Rita Simons was the fourth celebrity to leave the jungle . " It was so much harder than I thought it would be , " she told Dec and Holly . " It 's bloody hard , and the thing that killed me the most was the boredom . I 'm no good at sitting around . " As John Barrowman made his much anticipated return to the jungle the campmates finally took a bite out of one of their own , Harry made a startling confession and another celeb said farewell to camp ! Here 's what you need to know ... A nasty trip ' n ' slip sent John Barrowman to hospital on Day 15 but thankfully his sprained ankle was n't too seriously injured and Captain Jack made it back to camp . His return was nothing short of FABULOUS ( because of course ) and his nifty new walking stick proved a most useful accessory . When he was n't making several dodgy jokes about it ( because BARROWMAN ) he was choreographing little dance routines for himself and hobbling around camp with all the gravitas of Richard Attenborough 's John Hammond in Jurassic Park . Well , the show MUST go on , after all ... Would you eat another campmate if you were desperate for sugar in the Australian outback ? Well , after 16 years on air , I 'm A Celeb probably came about as close as it 'll ever get to cannibalism when Fleur returned from the Dingo Dollar Challenge . The X Factor singer and Coronation Street star Sair Khan secured a batch of cupcakes for camp , but Fleur was doused in treacle while winning the sweet treats . James McVey was hungry enough to taste the sugary substance coating Fleur 's arms and it was n't long before everybody was tucking in . That was Fleur 's experience as she took on the Gore Seasons Pizza Bushtucker Trial , which involved being strapped to a giant pizza base while all of the above were poured on top of her . Meanwhile , she had to smash open a series of pi ? atas containing crickets , green ants , mealworms and cockroaches to liberate the stars that would feed her fellow celebs . She came back stinking but with all ten stars , which meant wallaby dinner for the whole camp . An innocent conversation about who could touch their toes quickly developed into Emily showing off her questionable slutdrop technique ... ... to Fleur revealing that she 's rather partial to a visit to a strip club herself . " I do n't know what 's wrong with me but I 'm obsessed with strip clubs , I love them , " she said . " I like sitting there and watching them . " Later , in the Bush Telegraph , she added : " I 've always loved going to strip clubs , I do n't know why , I think maybe it 's because like you should n't be there , the whole thing fascinates me . " Another day , another disappointing Dingo Dollar Challenge . Harry and Rita had fun dressing up as old time prospectors , and sieving through sand to find ' stones ' containing gold nuggets . They eventually dug out enough to release the dollars , and had the choice of ice pops or crisps , but the camp failed on a question about how many Brits have no religious affiliation and down came Kiosk Kev 's shutters -- again . As a dinner of wallaby bits got underway , talk turned to fantasy dinner party guests , with all the campmates getting involved . In case Oprah Winfrey , the Obamas or Sir Francis Drake watch I 'm a Celebrity , here 's who they each chose ... Fleur : Michael Jackson , Oprah Winfrey ( " I 'd have to resurrect Michael Jackson and let him teach me his moves and sing to me all night long , legend . Oprah , I 'd love to sit down with her and pick her brains . " ) Sair : Oprah , Barack and Michelle Obama ( " I 'll take your Oprah and raise you two Obamas , they seem really funny and chilled and would tell us all the secrets . " Malique : Oprah , the Obamas , Morgan Freeman ( " I could just listen to his voice " ) Nick : Frances Drake , Prince Harry ( " a good crack ... he 's such a top lad " ) Emily : Celine Dion ( " I 'd force her to do a duet with me " ) , Whoopi Goldberg ( and Bradley Cooper for dessert ) Anne : Doctor Johnson , Jelly Roll Morton , Deirdre McClusky ( rest of the camp : " Who ? ! " Harry : " It sounded like it could be the most boring dinner party in history and I would have fallen asleep in my soup after about two minutes . Anne I 'm booked up that night ! " ) Out for an evening stroll with Harry , John stacked it down some slippery steps and was clearly in quite a bit of pain after twisting his ankle . He went straight to hospital where the good news was that it was a sprain rather than a break . Dec later told us they 're hoping John will be back in camp in time for Monday 's show . Sair takes on the Sickening Sewer , John and Emily face a shocking Dingo Dollars challenge , the girls pop pimples and Fleur and Harry get a wiggle on with a new song . First evictee Noel Edmonds left the jungle and his fellow campmates were devastated about the loss -- but there 's no point wallowing is there , so around six seconds after his departure they were rifling through his belongings , looking for stuff to steal . " His things were spread out a little too quickly for my liking , " said Emily in the Bush Telegraph -- but whether or not you agree , it gave Dec the opportunity for some top class punning , as he assured Holly that vulture Nick Knowles 's full , multi-barrelled name was actually Nick **45;299;TOOLONG ... The Sickening Sewer Sair smashed today 's Bushtucker Trial , a series of tight tunnels off a central sewer , each filled with a different critter -- cane toads , cockroaches , crickets , meal worms , water dragons , huntsman spiders , mud crabs and a croc . The toughest part for the aquaphobic Corrie actor was trying to free a star from inside a tiny tank rapidly filling with water , but she managed it in the nick of time -- before being unceremoniously dumped from a pipe into a cesspool , complete with ten out of ten stars in her bag and eel on the menu for that evening 's dinner . Rita kicked off a craze when she started squeezing her spots right in the middle of camp . First of all she drew an ( all female ) audience , then they started popping their own pimples and finally each others ' , all accompanied by oohs and aahs worthy of a fireworks display . Harry thought it was a bit gross . John , obviously , made up a song about it . No , not John -- James is the reluctant new leader , just pipping Rita and Harry after the campmates cast their votes . The 24-year-old admitted he found the prospect " very difficult " , saying " I look to Nick and the older members of the camp for guidance normally " . James chose the more seasoned Rita as his deputy but she confessed in the Bush Telegraph that she was likely to be " the most I 'll allow you to break the rules leader " ever . Under James , Nick now has wood to deal with ( maybe that 's why he was sleeping with his hat over his crotch ) , Anne is the twisted firestarter and Harry 's on washing up -- apparently , for the first time in 54 years . John and Emily took on the Dingo Dollars challenge , which involved her being winched up a tree in to examine the complicated wiring in a fuse box while John tried to recreate it on a large-scale version down based on Emily 's ( often incorrect ) instructions . The catch ? For every wrongly wired connection they both got what John described as a " vigorous " electric shock . Somewhat frazzled , they finally completed the task and released the Dingo Dollars for a potential treat of biscuits . But back at camp , the celebs answered the question incorrectly and Kiosk Kev slammed down the shutters sending them on their way . The campmates got hot under the collar during their eel dinner as a piece of the carefully divided chilli went missing , leaving Malique to go without . Emily made a show of searching for it along with everyone else but later admitted in the Bush Telegraph that " I robbed the chilli ... I 'm sorry " . But she was n't really . Another day , another song from Fleur and Harry -- this time inspired by tonight 's dinner of eel . Ms East will be taking on the next Bushtucker Trial , the unappetising Gore Seasons challenge ... Tonight 's I 'm a Celeb basically reinforced the notion that the British public should never be trusted to vote for anything ever after Noel Edmonds was voted out of the jungle -- following a tense Immunity Games and a camp love-in . Waking up in their penultimate morning as a full camp of eleven , it seems there 's one member of camp Emily Atack and Rita Simons wo n't miss -- the ' car alarm ' bird that wakes them up daily . " I just want to strangle it , " Rita said . Venting her rage at the squawking campmate , Emily said in the Bush Telegraph , " No-one wants you to do it , just stop it . " It seemed it was n't Emily 's morning , as she physically seemed to wretch over yet another portion of rice and beans . Musing poetically about her morning , she said , " The birds and the bees ... have got right on my t*****s this morning . " The last of the Immunity Games kicked off with the Rancid Races , with the four teams battling against each other to win food -- and immunity from the public vote . While the Galahs ' -- comprised of Nick , Malique and Sair were in last place , Nick , who boasted sinking pints down the rugby club , easily chugged drinks including blended green ants and ' orange juice with electro-sh***es ' ( crocodile anus to me and you ) to win the challenge and score his team immunity . His guzzling abilities , which saw Noel compare him to the Blackwall tunnel , were partly admired and partly disgusted by his campmates , who belched and retched their way through the trial . Despite Noel pouring more down himself than down his gullet ( being branded a serial cheat by Dec and Holly ) , his Underdog team , which also featured Rita , was placed in the danger zone -- losing the chance of immunity and the meal for the evening . The result of the Rancid Races saw the usually jovial Harry lash out at Nick , with the football manager questioning the DIY SOS 's motives . While Nick said he only knocked back multiple pints of sickening liquids to win himself a meal , Harry insisted he wanted to win -- with some viewers accusing him of ' sour grapes . ' " It 's a load of cobblers , " Harry snapped . " Everyone wants to win , let 's not kid ourselves . When the crunch comes , we 'll all walk over each other . " Although it was n't quite a fight , it was certainly the first ' very heated debate ' camp had seen , as Rita called it . Having managed West Ham & QPR , how can Harry Redknapp be such a sore loser ? #imacelebrity But for Harry , people 's motives are n't important to him : " I love them all in there , they 're all fantastic , " he said . " But they do all want to win , it 's silly to keep saying I do n't want to win because they do . " However , not all was lost for the campmates ... For the campmates who had n't managed to ensnare a decent dinner , there was one last opportunity to dodge the public vote -- by hitting up the Velodrome . The task saw Fleur , John , Anne , Emily , Harry and James take to bikes to try and collect gold medals , with the top two winning a meal and immunity . However , Anne took one look at the task and walked off ( a woman after our own hearts ) , leaving the others to battle it out . Cockroaches , worms and ants were dumped on each cyclist as they tried to collect the all-important medals -- with John and Fleur coming out as victors . " It was nightmare after nightmare , " said an emotional Fleur at the end of her ordeal . It really was n't Noel 's best day in camp . After being accused of cheating in Rancid Races , he then offered to wash the large cooking pot in the water -- but messed that up when he dropped the lid in the freezing cold creek . Aided by Emily , Noel stripped to his kecks and waded in to retrieve the lid , only for Emily to nearly slip in , fully-dressed . Ever the gent , Noel was forced to get hands-up , pushing Emily up the hill -- from behind . " He had to push me up the bank by my fat a*** and it cheered me up no end , it was hilarious , " she laughed . It all got a bit emosh for the 11 campmates , as they all banded together to enjoy the final night in the jungle . Those who won immunity were treated to crocodile sausages , while the losers resorted to rice and beans -- but everyone was treated to a special bev to celebrate their final night all together . It may have been the wine , or the genuine thought of someone leaving , but things quickly turned tender as the campmates gave their after-dinner speeches . But with no more immunity games , and Noel 's shock exit , it seems it 's still all to play for with our campmates ... It was an all-singing , all dancing edition of I 'm a Celeb tonight , as the campmates split into animal teams , battled it out in the Immunity Games and learned all about how Fleur loves her bum almost as much as Harry hates puzzles . Oh , and there was also that bit where Dec got completely distracted by a butterfly -- but those are the perils of live TV . Noel may have been driving a few campmates round the bend lately ( cough cough , Nick ) -- but it turns out when it comes to actual driving , he 's a master of traffic loopholes . " Bristol 's traffic is chaotic and so Liz bought me a black cab and I got to work in 20 minutes rather than an hour and 20 minutes , " Noel told his fellow campmates after Emily shared her tales of driving test struggles . " I can claim to be the person that cost Bristol Council a huge amount of money because when I hit the news that I was going down the bus lane in my black cab , which is legal , they put cameras on all the lanes . " " I reckoned I saved five months of my life when I added up the hours in the morning and evening , " he continued . " But when I got the ticket I did n't take my cab in the bus lane any more . " I did what any sane person would do . I bought a bus . I have a Routemaster bus . I can drive it on a car licence as long as there are no more than nine people on board , " said Noel . noel edmonds buying a bus so that he can drive in bus lanes and avoid traffic is the kind of rich i 'm aiming for #ImACeleb These days it 's all about the Immunity Games , the first of which saw Nick , Harry and John collect six puzzle pieces along a running track from cheerily-named " hell holes " filled with jungle surprises , before assembling a gold medal in a box at the end . The trio had different approaches to the hell holes -- Nick grimaced his way through each puzzle , Harry managed to slime himself blind while John turned the whole thing into a bizarre sing-song -- and in the end , Nick came from behind to win the whole thing just ahead of John and Harry . Now , over the next couple of days the team members have to compete in the Immunity Games , with the team at the top of the leaderboard each day getting some nice nosh . Whoever was at the top by the end of the Games , meanwhile , will be immune from the first public elimination . But forget all that , because everyone decided to just make up theme songs for their teams instead of thinking about that . This show , you guys . Anyway , the first challenge saw Emily , Rita , James and Malique go all Swallows and Amazons on the boating lake , where Emily stole victory for the koalas after some seriously shady tactics from Rita and an early bath for Malique and James . Challenge two saw the remaining campmates Noel , Sair , Fleur ( or should that be Flair ? ) and Anne take on the Gymnasium , where the gang had to hold onto a set of gym rings for as long as possible in the face of spurting water and encroaching darkness . Anne let go , and of the three who stuck it out Noel ended up winning for the Underdogs after a tiebreak question -- but back at camp Harry 's team the Roos ended up the overall day winners based on their point total . Bit of a wasted effort considering Harry 's reaction to the emu sausage on offer , but hey -- that 's the law of the jungle . Now , all eleven of the campmates will be joining Holly and Dec for the next Immunity Games challenge -- aka a big family outing -- ahead of the first ever eviction on this year 's I 'm a Celeb . Oooh-er . Tempers finally flared in the jungle on day eleven and Noel got logs , Nick got the hump , knickers inspired a jungle debate , and a pot of rice left Rita at risk of boiling over . Check out what the celebs got up to below ... " There 's Nick getting his knickers in a twist because he thinks I left the camp . He can be such an arse at times , " mused Noel Edmonds as he practically danced out of camp leader Nick Knowles ' line of sight for the umpteenth time . Little did he know the DIY SOS host would actually find himself in a twist over a pair of knickers later in the show . Or did he know ? He does a lot of meditating after all ... could Noel have the inside scoop on the future ? Should we be asking him for next week 's lottery numbers ? To cut a long story short , Nick spotted a pair of pants that had fallen from the washing line and was more than a little worried about picking them up . " I do n't feel comfortable handling women 's knickers but they are wet and need drying so would you hang them on the line ? " he asked John , sparking a debate about whether it was OK for a man to pick up a woman 's pants and a discussion about who would or would n't fart in front of their partner . " Food causes arguments , " said John as he attempted to conceal his fury in the Bush Telegraph following a tense discussion about rice with Rita Simons . Y'see , Rita was n't best pleased when John and Sair revealed that they were only cooking up four portions to split between eleven campmates . Rita called for a vote in camp , overruling John and inciting one of the most brilliantly passive aggressive showdowns we 've seen in the camp so far . " I 'm just going to do all of them , everyone wants all the rice so I 'm going to do it all , " John declared following the mini rice mutiny . " I 'm not by any means saying let 's cook all the rice all I 'm saying it needs to be more than four between us , " Rita replied . " God forbid we have some food to eat or if anyone is going to cook anything but it 's only one person that 's doing that and I can handle them , " she added in the Bush Telegraph . Nick-erless Knowles was quick to console John , assuring him that all the tension was probably just due to the fact that Rita and the girls were " due on " . " Remember the girls are going to be a bit jumpier because of what time of the month they told us it is , " he reminded the camp chef . " We 're going to have that for a couple of days with the girls . " There 's more than one type of MENstrual tension in that camp if you ask us ... With the first celebrity eviction looming the standard Bushtucker Trials are off the menu and The Immunity Games are ON ! Dec and Holly dropped in to reveal that Harry , Nick and John had been chosen by the public to take part in the Deadly Dash . What the trio does n't know is that they 'll be team captains in the games and how they perform in the race will directly affect their chances of picking the best teammates . Why do we have a feeling John wo n't be rushing to choose Rita ? And could Nick get his knickers in a twist if he 's forced to team up with Noel ? Although the day got off to a bit of a sticky start with Candlegate , it only got better as the hours ticked by , from Anne triumphing once more to Harry learning to say ' peng ting ' . A " wax factory " appeared in John 's bag after Malique lit a candle on top of it and the wax dripped down overnight . Despite this , the ever-upbeat John said he was feeling 7/10 on the cheeriness scale in the morning . It was a decent meal for the campmates tonight as Anne stormed her way through rooms of stinking offal and all kinds of critters . She was completely unfazed by a python and had to pick stars out of piles of raw meat and fish guts all while being rained on by insects . Classic . She looked like she 'd performed surgery when she came out . 7/11 stars -- go on Anne ! Oh , and Dec did an amazing pigeon impression . Or is that ' painting ' ? Harry learned some new slang from Fleur and Malique and the results were ... very entertaining . Instead of asking his wife Sandra to go dancing with him , he 's going to proposition her with : " Fancy a bit of grinding Sandra ? " Fleur was delighted with this , saying : " When you see her , say , ' Sandra , you peng ting . ' " Oh , to be a fly on the wall for that conversation ... After Rita , John and James won ten out of 11 stars in The ( epic ) Quest , Nick Knowles cemented his status as an absolute gem by sacrificing his seat at the feast for his camp . But that 's not all that happened in tonight 's jam-packed episode , with tensions rising between the campmates -- and Dec showing us his spectacular twerking skills . The winds of change have hit camp -- quite literally for Nick Knowles . Having been appointed camp leader yesterday by viewers , Nick chose The Chase 's Anne Hegerty to be his deputy , a decision he may have regretted the next morning , when Anne woke up and immediately passed wind -- right in Nick 's face . " Basically , I farted in Nick 's face , " she said matter-of-factly in the Bush Telegraph . " But he did n't seem to mind . So obviously we 're good mates . It was n't like Rita 's that the whole planet heard apart from me . " Nick , ever the gent , brushed it off , who was appointed camp leader yesterday by viewers and even admitted that sleeping in the jungle may have changed him . " The new accommodation is very nice , it 's nice to have a mattress to sleep in but in actual fact I think I prefer sleeping in the open now , " he said . Bless him . They were a dream team when they took on the Catch a Falling Star Bushtucker Trial on Saturday night , but it seems the brief love affair between Nick and Noel is well and truly over , as Noel ' rebelled ' against camp rules . With three people having to be at camp at all times , Noel raised eyebrows when Nick spotted him sloping out . " Who is up there then , Malique and Emily ? That 's not three , " said Nick from the creek . " I 'm not giving you a hard time because I want to give you a hard time . " As Noel returned to his post , muttering about losing his " celebrity endorsements " , viewers predicted the simmering tension between the pair could result in the otherwise harmonious camp 's first fall out . " He does n't like the rules at all does he ? " Nick later grumbled to Harry . As this series has progressed , Dec and Holly have really hit their stride with their new presenting partnership , seamlessly cracking jokes between links and providing moments of comedy gold . With Holly joking about how she needed a close-up shot , her piece to camera was rudely interrupted by Dec crawling over on the table to try and get his head into shot -- before falling into a cheeky twerk . Declan Donnelly , we did n't know you had it in you . It seems all reality TV offerings must have their own lingo or catchphrase these days -- while Love Island has " crackin ' on " , I 'm a Celeb has " smashing it . " While the celebs " smashed it " in the live trial yesterday ( Go on Anne ! ) , winning 85 minutes for The Quest , it was time for Rita , James and John to " smash it " , and secure 11 seats at the feast by collecting the stars . While John 's enthusiasm , energy and constant singing ( it was , as Nick said , basically Trek : The Musical ) kept the team peppy , it was ultimately the Doctor Who star who fell at the final hurdle when he failed to grab the 11th flag on the zipwire . His loss meant that someone had to sit out on the feast -- and while John immediately volunteered himself to skip the shindig , another campmate sacrificed their place at the banquet ... Explaining that he 'd spent all day lounging around , not being allowed to do chores as he was the new camp leader , Nick immediately refused to go to the banquet -- despite John insisting he should . " In anticipation of this I 've been thinking about it all day and as I 've been in the unenviable position of not being able to help around the camp , the decision is really easy , " he said with an off-hand shrug . So while the others feasted on chicken , salads and jam roly-poly , hearts across the country broke for Nick as he did sit-ups alone in camp , and chowed down on his new recipe for bean burgers . His latest act of chivalry comes after he gave Anne his pillow , revealed his secret rock career by jamming with Biffy Clyro and went without his care package . It seems the nation loves Nick almost as much as Harry loves jam roly-poly . Could we have already found our next King of the Jungle ? It was all change in the camp , as Nick became the leader , John and Fleur took over the cooking and impressed , and Anne Hegerty took part in a live trial ... I 'm a Celeb fans decided -- via a vote on the show 's app -- that Nick would become the next camp leader -- and he was n't thrilled about it . It meant he and his deputy Anne would be taking over the private boudoir formerly occupied by Noel and Harry , but he did n't welcome the other responsibilities , like divvying the team up into their various roles , and it also meant he was unable to continue cooking the camp meals ( John Barrowman was appointed as head chef ) . And his campmate James McVey reckons that the public did it to mess with them , knowing that he was probably the least keen to take on the authority . Elsewhere , Fleur and Emily were placed on washing up duty , James and Harry were tasked with cleaning the dunny and Malique , Noel and Rita were placed on maintenance . Noel and Harry got up to yet more mischief as they departed their palace , very unsubtly nicking some pillows from the incoming Anne and Nick -- and Harry later revealed it was n't the first time he had pocketed something he should n't have . Speaking on camera with Noel , he said : " it 's only like going in somewhere posh and there 's an ash tray with Buckingham Palace on it and you think , ' I 'll have that as a memento ' and stick it in your pocket . " Noel quickly chimed in : " I bet you 've done that before ! " Nick and Noel took on -- as they would explain in rigorous detail with the help of the chalkboard upon their return to the camp -- the most technically difficult trial of the series so far , aptly named Catch A Falling Star . It saw them suspended in boxes placed on top of one another hanging above the river , with Noel on top , blindly dropping stars down for Nick to catch . Noel was unable to see where Nick 's hands were , which made things rather difficult -- and , unsurprisingly , their boxes were filled with hungry insects , too . It was a tough one , and despite an admirable effort , they only came away with five out of 11 stars , meaning that they would have to stretch a meal out for their campmates . It was a great watch though , and even presenters Holly and Dec got emotionally invested , as you can see below . The most positive man in the camp was named as the new chef , and he got really into it -- even whipping out a half-cooked , hammed-up impression of TV chef Gino D'Acampo . He and campmates admitted that it was n't quite accurate , but they enjoyed it nonetheless -- and so did a lot of fans on Twitter . The first live trial of the season took place on Sunday , and it saw eight of the celebs take on X-Factor-themed challenges to buy time for John , James and Rita , who went off on a hike as part of the trial . The best and most gruesome part of the trial saw the celebs take part in a witchetty grubs eating race -- in the style of the drinking game boat race -- ending with Anne Hegerty , who , in her first attempt , managed to get it down before the buzzer went . But her big moment came later on as she was foced to down a glass of fish eye juice and did so in style , despite looking like she was going to vom for the remainder of the trial . Elsewhere , Noel downed a durian fruit smoothie and Harry guzzled a pint of blended pig dicks , so , yeah , just your average Sunday , really ... The tables have been turned on the comedic duo of Emperor Noel and advisor Harry Redknapp , who had to take part in the bushtucker trial on Saturday night 's episode ... Harry Redknapp is a long way away from the football pitches of blighty , but that did n't stop him putting himself and his campmates in formation for a jungle XI charity match on Saturday night 's episode . It also gave ' Arry another opportunity to roll out another of his dynamite stories -- this time about a hilarious miscommunication between himself and Russian striker Roman Pavlyuchenko when the pair were at Tottenham Hotspur . " I said to him , ' if you do n't play any better in the first half , I 'm going to pull you off at half-time ' " Harry said , " and he said , ' ah , this is fantastic -- in Russia , we only got an orange ! ' " -- the gag went down a treat with his fellow campmates . The empire may have fallen , but at least they went out in style . Noel and Harry -- whose bromance has been a highlight of the series so far -- smashed a particularly gruelling and gruesome 11-part bushtucker trial , in which they were forced to keep witchetty grubs and cockroaches in their mouths for a minute apiece , and gave us some priceless ( and GIF-able ) reactions in the process . Noel kicked things off by chomping down on a stick insect , looking rather terrified . And Harry did his best impression of Futurama 's Dr Zoidberg with a mouthful of witchetty grubs . But the former Tottenham manager nearly ruined the whole thing when he tried to make Noel laugh with a live Yabby ( it looks like a giant prawn ) in his gob . But the pair managed to get through all 11 stages successfully , including the grim final challenge of squeezing fish eye juice into a glass with their mouths and drinking it , which had host Holly Willoughby looking away ... The Chase 's Governess has thus far been ruled out of all the Bushtucker challenges on medical grounds , but she 's proven her worth in many other ways in the camp -- most notably during down time , when John Barrowman tests her remarkable general knowledge . On Saturday 's episode , he decided to rattle off country names to see what facts she could share about each one . First there was Uzbekistan , which she revealed was one of two double-landlocked countries ( it is bordered entirely by landlocked countries ) , then there was Mexico , whose biggest provence , she said , is named after its smallest dog , the chihuahua . But she saved her best " fact " for last -- and Barrowman 's home nation of The USA. taking a jab at President Donald Trump . " The United States of America appears to have got itself ruled by a complete f***wit , " she said , to fits of laughter throughout the camp . Continuing their sweet holiday bromance , Harry and Noel were all tucked up and ready to snooze in their luxury ( read : not actively outdoors , and with beds ) palace -- until they realised someone new had joined the inner circle . " What the f*** is that Noel ? ! " Harry asked , aghast , as a small critter hung onto one of the curtains . " I do n't like the look of that . " Once Nick Knowles was called in to help , the trio identified the beastie as a jungle shrew , and the DIY SOS host took it upon himself to send it on its merry way . Nick Knowles rescued a shrew and when he let it go he said it waved goodbye to him #imaceleb " I was disturbed as I was going to bed and I was called in by the Emperor and his co Emperor for pest control , " he noted -- and it could just be us , but did we note a touch of emotion when he told the story of how the removed shrew took a look back at him to say goodbye ? Believe it or not , though , a FEW campmates had to go through even more stress than removing a small mouse and massaging a former football manager ( hard though that is to believe ) , with John and Emily chosen to take part in tonight 's Bushtucker trial after Rita and Malique were already selected by Bushtucker trial . Called Drown and Out , the trial was a sort of Houdini-esque water-y head to head , with both duos fighting to find keys and turn on pipes in their opposing team 's tanks to flood them out before the same thing could be done to them . Oh , and because this is I 'm a Celeb , the tanks were also full of snakes , lobsters , and other creepy-crawlies . Just ' cause . And despite some pre-match nerves Malique and Rita absolutely smashed it , with their strategy of getting keys and trying them one at a time proving more fruitful than John and Emily 's idea of collecting all the keys first before trying any of them . " Stick to the plan , " John told Emily at one point , possibly just after he 'd accidentally handed her a yabbie lobster . " It might be a sh*t one but keep to it " In the end , both teams managed to turn three out of five levers -- but because Rita and Malique ( aided by Malique 's impressive diving ability ) did theirs first , John and Emily were forced out of their tank , leaving the public-voted duo as the new members of Noel 's inner circle . " We did n't give up . We kept on to the end . We 're still winners , " said John . Though in a very REAL sense , they really really were n't . Finally , The Chase 's Anne Hegarty got her groove back after a crossbow challenge where she , Nick Knowles and The Vamps ' Nick McVey had to destroy pots using crossbows . Sure , they were a little distracted by the endless dumpings of fish guts , soy sauce , earth and other items being continually dumped on their heads -- but they still managed to secure eight care packages ( out of a possible 11 ) , with eagle-eyed Anne landing the first shot . Harry , Nick and James were then denied care packages , which may have been a little harsh considering the latter two lads actually won them -- but if they 're unhappy with Emperor Noel 's decision , they may soon be able to get their revenge , as the campmates were informed his reign of terror would soon be over . The King is dead ! So let 's make him eat sheep eyeballs in a Bushtucker trial . What could be better than Emperor Noel Edmonds entering the jungle ? A Noel Edmonds and Harry Redknapp jungle bromance , that 's what . When Emperor Noel picked Harry as his official Advisor ( or Harry 's preferred term , ' Assistant Emperor ' ) , the pair quickly became inseparable , chatting about jigsaws and sleeping together in the Emperor 's Tent -- where , according to Noel , Harry apparently woke up in the middle of the night and asked for a cheeky leg massage . Sometimes you just need a hug and a sandwich . Instead , you get Emperor Noel Edmonds . Poor Mr Barrowman was not pleased when , standing up to ask Noel a question , he gave his waistband a well-earned itch -- and Noel accused him of scratching his groin . " I know he was trying to make a joke and be funny but it did n't land well with me , " a hangry John complained in the Bush Telegraph . " I 'm probably being overly sensitive and it 's at this exact time that my husband would say I need a sandwich . " Fleur and Sair took on biting green ants , as both campmates manoeuvred their stars down a bolt while only using their tongues -- and Fleur displayed an " impressive technique , " according to a naughty Dec . Meanwhile Nick and James untied knots to reach their stars -- all the while locked in a box with a stomach-churning number of creepy crawlies ... He 's finally here : Noel Edmonds has , at last , arrived in the jungle , dressed as a Roman emperor and looking just as silly as we dared to dream . But that was n't the only talking point from the show 's fourth instalment . From John Barrowman crossing paths with a crocodile , to the revelation Emily Atack used to bite people , here 's all that went down in the jungle ... An army of Cybermen ? No sweat . A Dalek on the warpath ? Easy peasy . But crossing paths with an ickle baby crocodile in a Bushtucker Trial ? That 's what will get John Barrowman swearing at the top of his lungs . However John performed fantastically in the challenge once the screams were out of his system , finding all 10 stars in a submerged shipwreck -- one filled with five water pythons , 10 water dragons , 40 large eels , 10 mud crabs and 90 " yabbies " , which are apparently a thing now . Turns out Harry Redknapp is n't the only one with some brilliant stories waiting to come out . In the Dingo Dollar Challenge , Emily Atack and Nick Knowles were asked to match 10 secrets to the jungle 's 10 celebrities , revealing some surprising truths . Turns out Anne Hegerty was once an extra in a Robin Hood movie , Rita Simons once taped her brother to a tree , Emily used to bite people as a youngster , Sair Khan wanted to be a WWE wrestler and John Barrowman once had a perm . Although , the more we think about it , the less surprising that last secret should be . What would have happened if Noel Edmonds had played Emperor Commodus in Gladiator ? A question nobody 's asked before , but one we 're getting the answer to anyway . Making his much-awaited first screen appearance on this year 's show , the Deal or No Deal host was finally unveiled as a campmate -- and " Emperor " of the next episode . He even turned up in ancient Roman attire , sitting on a throne in his robe before bellowing : " ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED ? ! " When an episode kicks off with Dec wiggling his hips to the Spice Girls and turning in an impressive Simon Cowell impression , you know you 're in for quite the ride . And I 'm a Celeb 's third instalment did n't disappoint -- with another gruelling trial ( poor Anne ! ) , a camp reunion , and the moment the nation fell in love with Nick Knowles . Oh , we are a cruel voting public , are n't we ? After finding out she 'd been nominated to tackle the latest Bushtucker Trial , Anne " The Governess " Hegerty shed a brief tear before James and Rita escorted her to face her fate . And brave Anne did her best . But the slime and the fish guts and the critters got the better of her , and two stars into the challenge she was bellowing those infamous words : " I 'M A CELEBRITY ... GET ME OUT OF HERE ! " It meant two meals for Croc Creek -- and nothing but rice and beans for the inhabitants of Snake Rock . But it took a hell of a lot of guts , as Dec pointed out . After three impoverished days , the Snake Rock campmates finally walked into the relative luxury of Croc Creek . And boy were they happy about it . " It was like checking into a five star hotel , " gushed James . Sitting on my sofa with a cup of TV and a smidge of perspective , I begged to differ . But it was lovely to see them all look so happy . And the two camps uniting meant we got to see Dec do his best Spice Girls impression , complete with snake hips and body-rolling . The man can really move . If Nick Knowles is n't already your man crush , he will be now . Before they left Snake Rock , Rita , James , Fleur and Anne faced down some frogs in order to win Croc Creek campmates ' luxury items . They managed four of the six and reunited Nick with his remarkable savvy treat -- a pillow . Hugging his item , Nick explained he had made the choice " so I could give it to anybody who was struggling sleeping " before throwing it to Anne , who had already confided in him how hard she was finding the jungle conditions . What a hero . And as if that was n't enough , Nick also shared the story of his fleeting music career -- the high point of which saw him sing with Biffy Clyro . Not that a super cool band like Biffy Clyro should be embarrassed by collaborating with the DIY:SOS presenter -- but if they had wanted to sweep that duet under the carpet , Dec made sure it was virtually impossible by asking viewers to get it trending . From encounters with " snake juice " to Harry 's new job as a " s*** shoveler " -- day two of I 'm a Celeb was pretty classy . There was a horrifying viper challenge , a whole series of revelations about Harry Redknapp and a bonding moment between Anne Hegerty and Rita Simons . Find out what went down in the jungle , below ... Not only did we discover that Harry Redknapp absolutely bloody loves a cold shower , but he also shares a physio with Prince Harry and has no sense of smell -- " I ca n't smell anything " . His inability to smell means he is the perfect campmate to clean out the loo , and he is now the self-proclaimed " Harry the s*** shoveler " . A bit of a skid mark on his shiny CV , to say the least . " What 's a viper ? " Atack asked before the first trial of the series -- but it 's fair to say that after being in a pit writhing with them , she was very familiar with the snake indeed . Atack whimpered and squealed her way through the challenge and came out covered in " snake juice " -- but it was all worth it in the end as she got to feed the camp at Snake Rock and was upgraded to Croc Creek . In a heartwarming moment , Anne discussed her Asperger 's syndrome with the campmates , which in turn encouraged Rita to talk about her experiences with OCD . Anne said : " I really appreciate how nice and sympathetic they 've been to me and how supportive they are and it was nice that they said I actually pick up on social cues because I 'm never quite sure that I actually do , so that was nice to know . " Speaking about her OCD , Rita revealed : " I 'm not too bad with cleanliness and all of that . I do n't do any of the rituals any more . I used to be a real light switcher , tap checker , I 'd spend hours doing it . It 's almost the complete opposite of you because yours is all logical and mine is all illogical . " Day one of I 'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here ! 2018 and two vertiginous challenges helped sort the first batch of celebs into teams , before a watery trial decided who would get to experience the ' luxury ' of Croc Creek and who 'd be roughing it in Snake Rock . There were a few lows along with the terrifying highs but John Barrowman was on hand to make sure things were generally fabulous ... As is now traditional on I 'm a Celebrity , the opening challenges were all about heights . The first four celebs to be introduced were split into two teams -- John Barrowman and Sair Khan 's Reds and Rita Simons and James McVey 's Yellows -- and asked to scale a metal frame overhanging a cliff edge to capture a series of flags in the fastest time possible . Dec revealed that at 100 feet above ground it was the highest challenge in the show 's history , although it did n't quite match the fear factor of previous years ' **45;346;TOOLONG ... and all four celebs managed to complete it . The Yellows just edged it on time though , meaning they got their pick of the next four incoming contestants , choosing The Chase 's Governess Anne Hegerty and former X Factor star Fleur East , and leaving football manager Harry Redknapp and DIY SOS presenter Nick Knowles to the Reds . A relatively tame trial followed in which Harry and Anne had to retrieve plastic discs from a box harbouring assorted critters , including green ants and crabs , with a narrow win for the Reds meaning they got their choice of the next two celebs : Hollyoaks ' Malique Thompson-Dwyer went to Team Red , with Inbetweeners star Emily Atack heading to the Yellows -- by skydiving 12,000 feet from a helicopter ... It 's safe to say neither were really looking forward to the jump but while Emily seemed to hate the entire experience , Malique 's talk of expelling various bodily substances eventually gave way to exhilaration ( and thankfully not evacuation ) . The teams each had to get in a canoe , paddle across to a pontoon , grab their kit bags and paddle back . But wait , can you actually get a whole team in one canoe ? No , no you can not , as the Yellows quickly found out when they sank . Meanwhile , John stayed in the water and used those well practiced kicks to provide jet propulsion for the Reds , who won themselves a stay in the ' luxury ' Croc Camp . So yes , those two camps . Some members of the Red team were n't too impressed by the luxury of Croc Camp , with Harry Redknapp -- who has never watched an episode of I 'm a Celebrity in his life -- apparently genuinely shocked that there was n't a burger van behind some trees ready to feed them during the ad break . But at least Harry got some meat ( emu , as it happens ) rather than a small ration of rice and beans and was n't sleeping on the ground with all the critters like the Yellows . That realisation , at the end of a tough day , proved a little too much for Anne " The Governess " Hegerty who had a little cry , admitting " I 'm really close to saying I ca n't do this " . But her teammates rallied round and soon had her back on track . So far , John Barrowman looks like being everything you 'd imagine and more from a man who describes himself as " entertainer/sci-fi gay icon of the world " . Some viewers may find his screams of " Fabulous ! " and tendency to break into song and dance at any opportunity -- " the hills are alive ... " -- grating but it 's all pretty self-aware and the other side of John seems to be that he is a great team player and very thoughtful when it comes to his fellow campmates . He was brilliantly supportive of Sair during the cliff task , took one for the team in the canoe challenge and after Harry Redknapp shared his reservations about the supposedly luxury Croc Camp , John was the first to remind everyone that whatever hardships they were facing they were probably in a better position than the Yellow team .

Reasoning
×
The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'gets the same buzz out of performing' involves the verb 'gets' with 'the same buzz' as its object and 'out of performing' as a prepositional phrase, but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the NP object 'the same buzz' is not a causee participating in the event described by 'performing'. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

He looks fantastic . David Essex may be the wrong side of 70 , his hair -- what 's left of it -- is now silver , rather than dark , and he has n't had a hit since 1994 . But there 's still a twinkle in his eye , he dresses like the sort of fella you 'd see in GQ and he is politeness itself . He 's in Birmingham to launch the UK 's biggest panto ; Elf . He 'll be starring alongside Martin McCutcheon in a spectacular production in the week before Christmas . Martine McCutcheon , Tam Ryan and David Essex Martine McCutcheon , Tam Ryan and David Essex And though he 's utterly professional , though he talks a good game and says all the right thing , it 's when the MP3 recorder stops rolling that he finally starts to emerge . " I hate these press days , " he says , apologetically , as though saying sorry for not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us down . Truth is , he 's done quite the reverse . He 's given us an insight into something far more important that the business of selling a show -- he 's shown his humanity , he 's connected . We communicate for longer after the recorder has stopped -- damn those failing batteries -- than we did when it was switched on . " I always feel uncomfortable doing these , " he says , as well he might . It must be no fun being wheeled out for the delectation of the media and being asked to stay on message and sell a show , no matter the paycheck . I ask if he still gets the same buzz out of performing that he did in the mid-1960s , when he started releasing records , or when he hit the road and sparked scenes reminiscent of Beatlemania , having been a teen idol for more than a decade . He smiles and his eyes come alive . " Of course , " he says , as though it 's the most foolish question @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the same , I love it just as much . " David is in the position to pick and choose . He became a household name when Rock On gave him a number three hit in 1973 . He followed that with two number one singles ; Gon na Make You A Star and Hold Me Close . Oh What A Circus and Silver Dream Machine kept him in the public eye while Winter 's Tale took him back to number two in 1982 . It was a remarkable run . There were huge films , TV hits and more . Essex was a bona fide rags-to-riches success story . And after 50 years , he 's in the position where he can call the shots ; taking gigs when the money 's too good to turn down or when he has a genuine interest in what he 's doing . Elf probably ticks both boxes . " It 's going to be very spectacular . It 'll be a very warm show , you know . It 'll be great for families . The production is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be intrigued to see how it all comes together . Advertising " It was an easy decision to make when they asked me because I know the team behind it . I read the script and knew I was in . It looked like fun . These days , there are very few things I say yes to but there are a lot of things I say no to . But with Elf , I immediately said yes and I 'll look forward to it . " The family will all be there for this and they 're all excited by it . The grandkids and the kids , they 'll all be up for this one . You get to a stage where you do things for family . With this , the family will like it so I 'm happy to do it . " David 's family wo n't be the only ones who enjoy it . After all , Elf is a West End and Broadway hit musical based on the Hollywood blockbuster movie and it 's being supersized into a Christmas @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as Buddy the Elf 's father ; Love Actually star and singer Martine McCutcheon as Buddy 's girlfriend , Jovie ; plus , comedy actor Tam Ryan as Buddy , it will be a festive treat like no other . Advertising Featuring a book written by Bob Martin and Thomas Meehan ( Annie , The Producers and Hairspray ) , the new Christmas spectacular will also include an original score of new songs . Added to that , there are special effects to take the breath away , including a giant sleigh that flies across the arena , an indoor snow blizzard and lots of skating . It will all be teamed with giant screens and a humungous stage so that families can catch all of the action . David 's lack of enthusiasm for press junkets should n't be confused with a loss of appetite for performing , however . He has n't lost the bug -- far from it . In April , he 'll be back on the road for an arena tour called Legends , where he 'll join forces with Suzi Quatro @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " I did something similar a couple of years ago and the reaction was incredible . It was the celebration of an entire generation and people loved it . The fans really tuned into the music from the seventies and eighties . People like to reminisce and be reminded of their childhood . I was pleased I did it and I 'm looking forward to coming back . " Birmingham and the Black Country have always been a happy hunting ground for David . He has fond memories of the Second City and Wolverhampton having played more shows that he cares to remember . " I love Birmingham . I came here when The Odeon was still here . I 've always been well treated when I 've come here , which is why I like to come back . I 've found Birmingham one of the warmest places . People used to malign it and talk about Spaghetti Junction . But I 've always loved it and had a great time here . Wolverhampton 's great too , there 's a fantastic theatre there with The Grand @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Films good and recording is good . But there 's nothing as good as live . As long as the audience accepts that we 're in Wonderland or wherever it is we 're at , then that 's great . Once you 've achieved that , you 're on a journey together . They 're coming with you and it 's all about having fun . " David is no stranger to big stages having enjoyed a remarkable career . The son of an East End docker and a self-taught pianist who descended from Romany gypsies famously flunked his 11-plus exams , refusing to answer a single question , so that he could go to a school that had a decent football team rather than a grammar school where sport was frowned upon . He formed a band and pretty quickly became a pop star before becoming the lead in Godspell and then starring in the film That 'll Be The Day . Gold discs and more hit movies followed while Essex moved into musicals with The War Of The Worlds , Evita and more . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ across all formats : music , films and stage . For a while , everything was going well at the same time . It was pretty special . " And yet it 's his love of performance that kept him in the game for so many years . And it 's that that he has in common with his Elf co-star , Martine McCutcheon . Like David , she 's enjoyed in TV ( as Tiffany Mitchell , in BBC TV 's EastEnders ) , in film ( Love Actually ) , and as a pop star , enjoying a number one hit with Perfect Moment and relaunching her pop career last year with Lost and Found . Similarly , she has also been a doyen of the West End , in her case , starring as Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady , which won her a Laurence Olivier Award . Her motivation for starring in Elf was similar to David 's -- it 's a huge show , a well-paid gig and her son will be thrilled . " Do you know , I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reasons I 've either not wanted to do it , not been able to do it or been thinking I 'll do it later on . For me , this came at the perfect time . My little boy is so excited about Father Christmas and anything to do with that -- he turns four in February -- and so he 'll be with me a lot . This show has a great team and for the first time in years it excites me . It 's in arenas , it 's on a massive scale , it 's CGI and I like things that test me . It makes me excited . " The timing was great . I think this Christmas is perfect because my little boy is old enough to know but not too old to be at school -- it 's my last chance to do this while he 's a kid . " Martine was also captivated by the story . She 's a huge fan of Elf and relishes the chance to get her teeth into its everyman story . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her life and is Bah Humbug . She 's quite feisty and is just not happy . But then she meets this character called Elf who turns her world upside down . She goes on a full U-turn , which is so exciting to play . She goes from being a tough girl to being a giddy girl and it 's all because of falling in love , which is a lovely message . " It 's not boring . It 's not a one-level , boring female part and she 's funny and sassy . I love playing funny women . It tests all my skills , I sing , I work with camera for the CGI and the screens . Everytime we come off stage we 'll feel like we 've climbed a mountain . We make ourselves jump through hoops ; I do n't know why we do it but we do . It 's a massive production with a lot of money involved and they want that luxury feel-good aspect . It was important to me that if they were going to do it , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " While Martine will be playing to the crowd her thoughts will , of course , go to her son -- for whom she 'll create the most magical of memories . " He 'll be with me and he 'll have those pictures for ever and those images backstage . It 's great , you know . And for me I love playing to a big crowd in the arena . It 's exciting and it 's nice that the public will feel like they 're part of the production with me . " Elf follows a purple patch for Martine , who returned to the public eye with her most recent album and a successful singing tour . " It 's been great and I 'm thrilled . Life has its ups and downs and mine have just happened to be public . As long as you can brush yourself down and keep living a life you love . We can get caught up and get in a rut , but you have to keep going and appreciate the little things in life . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nice people and laughing lots -- that 's what it 's all about . The people on Elf are like a family . We 've not worked together before but we 've wanted to and it came together this year . " EastEnders , Love Actually and hit records stand out on Martine 's CV but her portrayal in My Fair Lady remains a crowning glory . She 's still proud of it . It was a dream for her . " The whole thing was special . It was beautiful , absolutely beautiful . It was a dream come true . I watched the film as a kid and my first ever solo was Would n't It Be Lovely in a school music . So the part resonated me and it mimicked my life in a certain way . It was the most amazing time . But theatre 's difficult because it was eight shows a week with matinees for 18 months . So this is very different . It 's not 18 months . It 'll be fun and I can throw myself into it . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ me the best time . They are supportive . They want you to win . They 're not like that everywhere . It 's nice . " David and Martine are the big names in Elf but the production will also feature a cast of thousands . It promises to be Christmas 's big ticket . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'made a career out of' followed by a gerund phrase 'bursting into the area and applying the finishing touch', which does not involve a causee or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The NP object 'a career' is not a causee, and the construction does not convey the required semantic interpretations.

Celtic fans had to bide their time to see the best of Stuart Armstrong and now Southampton supporters are being rewarded for their patience . The Scotland international started slowly with the Saints but he 's burst into life over the past two Premier League games - and he netted his third in two matches against Manchester United . ( Image : Getty Images ) It 's been an impressive run for the ex-Dundee United man after he bagged a double against Fulham last week and he 's now living up to his ? 8million summer fee . Despite his best efforts , his early strike was n't enough to seal the win as Jose Mourinho 's side fought back to earn a 2-2 draw . Record Sport Online delves deeper and looks at why Southampton fans should be excited about the 26-year-old moving forward . David De Gea had no answers as Armstrong raced through and rocketed his effort low into the bottom corner to give his side the lead after 13 minutes and it 's the type of goal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Every player has their calling card but few time their runs into the box as well Armstrong does when he is at the top of his game . The likes of Freddie Ljungberg and Michael Ballack made a career out of bursting into the area and applying the finishing touch - that 's something the Scottish star specialises in . Mark Hughes ' side are in a perilous position but they must find a way to keep getting their new-found goal threat into positions of danger . There was a moment in the second half when Armstrong closed down three Manchester United players in succession as his side were hanging on while under serious pressure . You could never accuse Armstrong of phoning it in at Parkhead but he had the likes of Scott Brown to firefight for him but he looked hungry to get close and win possession back against the likes of Ander Herrera and Scottish international team-mate Scott McTominay . He was non-stop in the second period and provided so many @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ many clever movements going unrewarded . Once again , Armstrong demonstrated he 's back to his best when he waited patiently for a pass from Nathan Redmond and then made his move down the left wing before threading a great through ball to substitute Manolo Gabbiadini - who fired a tame effort straight into the arms of De Gea . His patience followed by a sudden burst of explosive play was what made him such a key member of Rodgers ' Celtic side . Armstrong is just reading the game better than he has in some time and was almost playing as a No.10 for the final stages of the match . Alex McLeish will have a smile as wide as the River Clyde watching one of his key men pull the strings against a team packed full of international talent . Not every player who leaves Scottish football for the riches of England will be a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ world when he is flying . A heady mixture of pace , power and energy is tough for the opposition to handle . His skills will leave more than just Southampton realising his potential . The Saints need more than platitudes as they await their next win but they have a midfielder who can help turn their season around . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes an action (dribbling past defenders) that leads to an opportunity, without involving a causee or a prevention/movement interpretation. The phrase 'out of nothing' is idiomatic and does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate.

Date published : Sunday 2nd December 2018 6:22 1 ) You could have held it at Pride Park , nicknamed it ' The Rams ' and preceded it with the words ' Frank Lampard 's ' and you still would n't have had a more pure , unadulterated , wonderful derby . Arsenal and Tottenham showed how a true rivalry should be played out on Sunday . It was pulsating and engaging , a rollercoaster of a match which one team led , squandered then led again , while the other fought back for the honour of losing . There were goals , penalties , pyro , fights , red cards and an unhealthy dollop of one Michael Dean . It was , all in all , an absolute classic . 2 ) The story of Arsenal 's season so far can be plotted out quite neatly over the months . August was an eye-opening , chastening experience that proved how far behind their rivals they were . September was an improvement , but that was more a reflection of the inferiority of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ similar story , while November saw the comparative wobble of three draws in five games . How fitting then that December is the moment Arsenal are finally considered one of the Premier League 's best teams in their own right . There is no ' but ' attached to their brilliance , no asterisk placed against their awesomeness . This was not a victory over Qarabag that can be overlooked , nor a defeat of Fulham that can be scoffed at . Those were whispers in comparison to this statement win against a supposedly better side far further ahead in their evolution . Arsenal are unbeaten in 19 games , are fourth in the Premier League table with over one-third of the season gone , and are there on merit . Sleep on them at your peril . 3 ) Quite how much can be read into this defeat for Tottenham is difficult to say . The team selection set the tone for a performance tainted by naivety and poor decision-making . But this feels more like an outlier than proof of a wider problem . That @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is that Tottenham actually fought back from adversity , recovering from a nightmarish start to find themselves in dreamland at 2-1 up after 34 minutes . Then came the relapse : a lead they had stolen in three first-half minutes was lost in as many in the second period . The absence of the calm-headed Toby Alderweireld was a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the foot , while hindsight suggests the confident passing of Harry Winks was sorely missed too . After playing the Chelsea and Inter Milan games to perfection , this was perhaps a step too far for both the manager and his players . 4 ) Mauricio Pochettino seemed to over-complicate the task at hand while Emery simplified the equation put in front of him . Juan Foyth started alongside Jan Vertonghen for the first time ever in the Premier League , as Tottenham deployed a high line against the notoriously slow and plodding Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang . The visitors were also over-run in wide positions as they matched the combination of Alex Iwobi and Henrikh Mkhitaryan 's movement and Hector Bellerin and Sead Kolasinac 's overlaps @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enjoyed on the wings was alarming , yet Tottenham still led at half-time . The difference between these two mistake-ridden sides was negligible , yet the respective reactions to a strange first half could not have been more diverse . Emery changed tack completely , changing formation by bringing off Iwobi and Mkhitaryan at half-time and replacing them with the more central threats of Aaron Ramsey and Alexandre Lacazette . Pochettino might as well not have noticed . Tottenham changed neither personnel nor system , the manager trying to answer completely different questions with the same answers as before . By the time Matteo Guendouzi came on as Arsenal 's third substitute in the 71st minute , Tottenham had still not made a single change of their own and were now level . Only when Arsenal equalised did he alter things ever so slightly , dropping Eric Dier into a back three while a fit Alderweireld watched on from the bench . Three minutes later , the hosts were in front . Pochettino made his first substitution in the 79th minute , by which point they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ As incredible a job as he has done in north London , he was completely and utterly outmanoeuvred here by both his own stubbornness and Emery 's invention . 5 ) " We can not impose our ideas in the first 45 minutes , but in the second half we have the chance and the opportunity to change the result , " Emery admitted after Arsenal 's 1-0 victory away at Sporting Lisbon in October in a game they were drawing at half-time . " I think we did that in the 45 minutes of the second half . But we need to continue finding the solution for us to be better in the first halves . " The conundrum seemed to finally be solved on Sunday . Arsenal burst out of the blocks , refusing to afford Tottenham a single second to think or even breathe . The right side of their defence looked vulnerable , with Serge Aurier hardly the most reliable of safety nets for the inexperienced Juan Foyth , and Arsenal were ruthless in targeting the pair . The Gunners attempted three @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . They pressed their opponents relentlessly , forcing more turnovers than a Dragon 's Den pitch . And their reward came when Aubameyang duly dispatched a penalty conceded by the wandering hands of Jan Vertonghen . It was a completely deserved goal . Arsenal had 67% possession and had misplaced just six passes altogether by the time they took the lead . They have been in front in the first half of just four of their 14 league games this season ; that two of those have come in their last two fixtures suggests Emery 's message is finally getting through . 6 ) That said , Arsenal 's breakthrough was not due to their own brilliance . Instead , Tottenham themselves were the catalysts . A hat-trick of mistakes handed the initiative to their rivals . First came Aurier 's failed interception . That was followed immediately after by Foyth 's indecision , which Aurier sought to make up for by fouling Aubameyang near the touchline . The right-back launched into an impassioned rant at the young centre-half for failing to close the forward down , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the first place . Foyth was far from blameless and was caught sleeping , but only after Aurier had tucked him in and bid him goodnight . To complete the set , Vertonghen inexplicably handled Granit Xhaka 's free-kick . On only the fourth Premier League start of his career , 20-year-old Foyth should expect better support from his 31-year-old and 25-year-old international teammates . Aurier in particular was far too keen to pass the buck to an easy target , hardly the example a senior player should be setting . 7 ) If Aurier 's woeful display was to be expected despite his recent improvements , Vertonghen 's was surprising . A late -- and completely deserved -- red card summed up his afternoon . Pochettino made a mistake in starting Foyth , yet it speaks volumes that he was not Tottenham 's worst centre-half . There was no leadership from the Belgian , no sign that he could push the team on from the back . Vertonghen made one tackle to Foyth 's seven , and two clearances to his six . He was thrown @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ back from injury , but he drowned in a pool of his own incompetence . 8 ) The challenge for Arsenal was how they would respond to an unfamiliar position of early superiority . They would not be able to keep up the intensity for the entire game , so the onus was on them to exert control instead of chasing for once . For 20 minutes , they fared very well . Aubameyang and Iwobi should both have done better when played in by Kolasinac , while Ben Davies had to be alert to block Bellerin 's attempt . Arsenal made twice the number of crosses as Tottenham ( 22 to 11 ) as they proved a quite literal pain in the side . " You could see Emery talking about getting wide , that 's the areas where you can hurt them and Bellerin and Kolasinac were wide , " Ian Wright said after the Liverpool draw , and it was a similar story here . Arsenal have some phenomenal attacking players in central positions , but their main danger is in making you forget @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 9 ) But as ever , Arsenal can be their own worst enemy . " When we are pushing with Hector Bellerin wide we need some players for balance , " Emery said after last week 's win at Bournemouth , noting a possible chink in the armour . When they eventually settled , Tottenham exploited it to the fullest degree . Heung-min Son created their first real opportunity out of nothing , dribbling past three defenders before firing low at Bernd Leno . That was in the 23rd minute . Ten minutes later , Tottenham were ahead , and both goals came down that left-hand side : Bellerin 's flank . First came Sokratis ' unnecessary foul on the South Korean when he was running away from goal , reminiscent of Aurier 's earlier challenge on Aubameyang . Dier nodded home from the subsequent free-kick . And Arsenal had barely settled by the time Son raced through and won a penalty after Rob Holding dived in . There was minimal contact , but it was a terrible decision from the player on an afternoon of central @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Tottenham finally learned how to make Arsenal 's greatest strength their main weakness . The hosts were right to remove that option after the break , and it exposed Tottenham 's lack of ideas thereafter . 10 ) Within 11 minutes of the restart , Emery 's double substitution had paid off in full . Jose Mourinho spent much of Saturday stressing that " simplicity is genius " , and Arsenal offered irrefutable proof 24 hours later . Bellerin found Ramsey 's fine run , with the Welshman 's pass inside to Aubameyang as excellent as the first-time finish . In just three touches , Arsenal went from their own half to Hugo Lloris ' goal . It is a minority that admittedly diminishes with each passing game , but show that goal to anyone who insists Emery has changed little to nothing since Arsene Wenger 's tenure . Arsenal passed straight through an elite opponent instead of around them , taking the most direct route to goal possible . It was utterly ruthless and utterly brilliant . 11 ) Ramsey changed the game completely -- and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was . Iwobi and Mkhitaryan might deem themselves unlucky to have been taken off so early , as they were hardly to blame for the first-half mini-implosion . But it felt like a pre-planned approach . This was Tottenham 's third game in eight days after facing Chelsea and Inter Milan . Pochettino spoke of an exhaustion both mental and physical after the match , and Emery seemed to want to play on it . In also bringing on Alexandre Lacazette and giving four fine forwards 45 minutes each , Emery maximised their times on the pitch . Their energy levels were higher , their effectiveness multiplied against a tiring defence that struggled to keep up with different challenges . Ramsey was the most troublesome . With just 15 passes , he registered two assists , and restored that first-half aggression with two tackles , one of which created Lacazette 's goal . It was the kind of performance that makes you wonder why he is being allowed to leave in the summer . 12 ) Lucas Torreira was immense in midfield , and revelled in applying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ left Eric Dier -- and Tim Sherwood -- rather embarrassed , and his finish was exquisite . The pass was sublime , the role-reversal completed as Aubameyang carried the ball through midfield before picking Torreira out . It rounded off a complete performance from the Gabon international , whose ability on the ball is often masked due to his prowess in front of goal . He completed a higher percentage of his passes ( 89.5% ) than any Tottenham starter . 13 ) A word for that prowess in front of goal though , as Aubameyang is central to the idea that Arsenal 's run is unsustainable . A team outperforming their xG at such ridiculous levels can not possibly carry on doing so throughout an entire league season . With such elite finishers , why not ? Aubameyang is scoring with nearly one-third of all his Premier League shots ( 32.2% ) , while Lacazette ( 20% ) is not too far behind . It is no coincidence that Manchester City are the only team to outscore Arsenal this season ; the league leaders are the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The game started with Arsenal swarming their opponents in possession , and ended much the same way too . Lloris ( 54.8% ) , Aurier ( 69.2% ) , Foyth ( 63.6% ) and Vertonghen ( 68.6% ) fared miserably against the press , with Davies ( 85.2% ) the only defender whose pass accuracy points to a confidence -- or at least a competence -- on the ball . By comparison , Kolasinac ( 72.7% ) was the only Arsenal defender to register a pass accuracy lower than 88.9% , as the hosts had a much greater , more reliable platform from which to build , assisted ably by Tottenham 's complete ineffectiveness and passivity off the ball . 15 ) Quite why Alderweireld was rested while Sissoko was allowed to complete his third full match in eight games is beyond the minds of mere mortals like you or I. The Frenchman has been wonderful recently , but this game required an energy he could not be expected to deliver . Arsenal relished the space afforded to them by a tired midfield . Sissoko made one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ team that only grew in stature .

Wenger 's work in his final years at the Emirates Stadium may never be respected for what it was .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It uses 'born out of' which is a phrasal verb indicating origin, not causation or prevention. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not involve movement/extraction or prevention.

Uefa president Aleksander Ceferin confirmed the news after their meeting in Dublin A third European club competition with the working title ' Europa League 2 ' will be introduced from 2021 . One English team will enter the play-offs of the new tournament , while Scottish sides may miss out on Europa League places in a reshuffle . As part of Uefa 's 2021-2024 cycle , the Europa League will cut in size to 32 teams with an extra play-off round between the group stage and last 16 . The new tournament will be played on Thursdays alongside the Europa League . Every country 's champions will still enter the Champions League , but only teams from the 15 top-ranked countries will go into the Europa League group stages or qualifiers . That means teams from leagues below that level - which at the moment would include Scotland , Wales and Northern Ireland , excluding their champions - would go straight into ' UEL2 ' qualifying rounds . The new competition and Europa League will have the same @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ going into the last 16 . There will be a play-off before that round for the teams who finish second in the group and sides who finish third in the groups of the higher tournament . The winners of the tournament will qualify for the following season 's Europa League . The Champions League format does not change . Uefa president Aleksander Ceferin said : " The new competition makes Uefa 's club competitions more inclusive than ever before . There will be more matches for more clubs , with more associations represented in the group stages . " This competition was born out of ongoing dialogue with clubs through the European Club Association . " At least 34 countries will have teams in a group stage , compared to 26 at the moment . |

Update : Looks like the next Far Cry is officially titled Far Cry : New Dawn , and it is surprisingly pink . The new look at the game comes from an allegedly leaked cover posted to Twitter by prominent game-stuff-exposer Nibel , showing a pair of women using a shirtless man for target practice in a flowery field ( with a familiar , albeit bombed out , church nearby ) .

Xbox One indie exclusive Below finally has a release date -- and it 's sooner than you think . Developer Capy announced back in 2016 it had indefinitely delayed the title , but brought it out of hiding earlier this year to put it in the hands of the press . Now the studio and its publisher Microsoft have announced the game will be available for all Xbox One and PC users on Friday , December 14 . It 's the end of a long journey for both Capy and Below , with the game originally being announced at Xbox 's E3 press conference way back in 2013 . Speaking to GamesIndustry.biz , the studio 's co-founder and president Nathan Vella admits that this was a little premature . " No-one would have cared if we had n't announced it too early , " he tells us , referring to years of calls for a release date . " We 're definitely not going to announce things too early in future , that 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ know a lot more about when games are ready to be discussed . In the five years since we announced , we 've learned a lot and that 's a big chunk of our experience . " In our full interview --- which will be published next week -- Vella discussed how the concept and scope of the game shifted and expanded as development continued , hence the long delay and accompanying silence . While he maintains it 's been beneficial to the quality of the final game , he acknowledges there was " a ton of risk " in how the studio has handled its messaging around Below . There is also a danger that years of waiting may have deterred people who were initially excited for the game -- especially given the wealth of roguelike titles that have been released in the interim . But Vella remains confident that Below will differentiate itself , and that even a niche audience will justify the risks Capy has taken . " I 'm not at all afraid of how this game is going to perform , " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's going to perform , that 's why I ca n't really be afraid of it . I think we have something that some people are going to love and some people are not going to like , and I think that 's a strength . " The fact that it 's hard , brutal but fair , challenging in the sense that you actually have to figure things out -- there is a learning curve . There is a point where people are going to say ' screw it ' , and that 's okay . Not every game has to be for everyone . " He continued : " Some people are going to pick it up and beat it in two days -- and I 'm going to be so mad . But some people are going to take some time to get over the hump , and I hope they do . I also know some people are n't going to because it is very different , and it does have a different ask of players than some of the games that are super @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that Capy and Xbox have announced Below 's release date just a week ahead of the actual launch , thus denying them much time to repromote the game and re-engage those who previously showed interest . However , Vella observes that the market has changed so much in the past few years that he and the team " know how hard it is to release games right now " , adding that " having the support of platforms is integral . " Ultimately , given the long silence surrounding Below and the disappointment surrounding it 's previously indefinite delay , he believes today 's announcement is all the game 's fans will need . " I never know the best way to release a project , " says Vella . " You can never know . You do n't have the A/B data , you ca n't focus test a release style , you ca n't expect your release is going to work well because it worked well the last time .

And when she got home , what did she find fast asleep in the middle of the prickly spray , but a small fairy , wrapped in a cobweb blanket !

My evil plot to kidnap Father Christmas Horrid Henry 's Ambush by Francesca Simon Francesca Simon published her first Horrid Henry book in 1994 and has since gone on to write more than 50 story books about the troublesome boy and his arch-enemy , Perfect Peter , his younger brother . Here , Henry hatches a plot to capture Father Christmas and hold him hostage until he gets all the presents he wants -- instead of the dull ones chosen for him . . . It was Christmas Eve at last . Every minute felt like an hour . Every hour felt like a year . How could Henry live until Christmas morning when he could get his hands on all his loot ? Mum and Dad were baking frantically in the kitchen . Perfect Peter sat by the twinkling Christmas tree scratching out ' Silent Night ' over and over again on his cello . ' Ca n't you play something else ? ' snapped Henry . Here , Henry hatches a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he gets all the presents he wants -- instead of the dull ones chosen for him ' No , ' said Peter , sawing away . ' This is the only Christmas carol I know . You can move if you do n't like it . ' ' You move , ' said Henry . Peter ignored him . ' Siiiiiiiii -- lent Niiiiight , ' screeched the cello . AAARRRGH . Horrid Henry lay on the sofa with his fingers in his ears , double-checking his choices from the Toy Heaven catalogue . Big red ' X 's ' appeared on every page , to help you-know-who remember all the toys he absolutely had to have . Oh please , let everything he wanted leap from its pages and into Santa 's sack . After all , what could be better than looking at a huge glittering stack of presents on Christmas morning , and knowing that they were all for you ? Oh please let this be the year when he finally got everything he wanted ! His letter to Father @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Christmas , I want loads and loads and loads of cash , to make up for the puny amount you put in my stocking last year . And a Robomatic Supersonic Space Howler Deluxe plus attachments would be great , too . I have asked for this before , you know ! ! ! And the Terminator Gladiator fighting kit . I need lots more Day-Glo slime and comics and a Mutant Max poster and the new Zapatron Hip-Hop Dinosaur . This is you last chance . PS . Satsumas are NOT presents ! ! ! ! ! PPS . Peter asked me to tell you to give me all his presents as he does n't want any . How hard could it be for Father Christmas to get this right ? He 'd asked for the Space Howler last year , and it never arrived . Instead , Henry got . . . vests . And handkerchiefs . And books . And clothes . And a -- bleuccccck -- jigsaw puzzle and a skipping rope and a tiny supersoaker instead of the mega-sized @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ needed Henry 's help . ' How hard could it be for Father Christmas to get this right ? He 'd asked for the Space Howler last year , and it never arrived . Instead , Henry got . . . vests ' Share Father Christmas is getting old and doddery , thought Henry . Maybe he has n't got my letters . Maybe he 's lost his reading glasses . Or -- what a horrible thought -- maybe he was delivering Henry 's presents by mistake to some other Henry . Eeeek ! Some yucky , undeserving Henry was probably right now this minute playing with Henry 's Terminator Gladiator sword , shield , axe and trident . And enjoying his Intergalactic Samurai Gorillas . It was so unfair ! And then suddenly Henry had a brilliant , spectacular idea . Why had he never thought of this before ? All his present problems would be over . Presents were far too important to leave to Father Christmas . Since he could n't be trusted to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . He would have to ambush Father Christmas . Yes ! He 'd hold Father Christmas hostage with his Goo-Shooter , while he rummaged in his present sack for all the loot he was owed . Maybe Henry would keep the lot . Now that would be fair . Let 's see , thought Horrid Henry . Father Christmas was bound to be a slippery character , so he 'd need to booby-trap his bedroom . When you-know-who sneaked in to fill his stocking at the end of the bed , Henry could leap up and nab him . Father Christmas had a lot of explaining to do for all those years of stockings filled with satsumas and walnuts instead of chocolate and cold hard cash . So , how best to capture him ? Henry considered . A bucket of water above the door . A skipping rope stretched tight across the entrance , guaranteed to trip up intruders . A web of string criss-crossed from bedpost to door and threaded with bells to ensnare night-time visitors . And let 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was foolproof . Loot , here I come , thought Horrid Henry . Francesca Simon published her first Horrid Henry book in 1994 and has since gone on to write more than 50 story books about the troublesome boy and his arch-enemy , Perfect Peter , his younger brother Horrid Henry sat up in bed , his Goo-Shooter aimed at the half-open door where a bucket of water balanced . All his traps were laid . No one was getting in without Henry knowing about it . Any minute now , he 'd catch Father Christmas and make him pay up . Henry waited . And waited . And waited . His eyes started to feel heavy and he closed them for a moment . There was a rustling at Henry 's door . Oh my God , this was it ! Henry lay down and pretended to be asleep . Cr-eeeek . Cr-eeeek . Horrid Henry reached for his Goo-Shooter . A huge shape loomed in the doorway . Henry braced himself to attack . ' Does n't he look @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . ' What a little snugglechops , ' whispered another . Sweet ? Snugglechops ? Horrid Henry 's fingers itched to let Mum and Dad have it with both barrels . POW ! SPLAT ! Henry could see it now . Mum covered in green goo . Dad covered in green goo . Mum and Dad snatching the Goo-Shooter and wrecking all his plans and throwing out all his presents and banning him from TV for ever . . . hmmmn . His fingers felt a little less itchy . Henry lowered his Goo-Shooter . The bucket of water wobbled above the door . Yikes ! What if Mum and Dad stepped into his Santa traps ? All his hard work -- ruined . ' I 'm awake , ' snarled Henry . The shapes stepped back . The water stopped wobbling . ' Go to sleep ! ' hissed Mum . ' Go to sleep ! ' hissed Dad . ' What are you doing here ? ' demanded Henry . ' Checking on you , ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Christmas will never come . ' He 'd better , thought Henry . Horrid Henry woke with a jolt . AAARRGGH ! He 'd fallen asleep . How could he ? Panting and gasping Henry switched on the light . Phew . His traps were intact . His stocking was empty . Father Christmas had n't been yet . Wow , was that lucky . That was incredibly lucky . Henry lay back , his heart pounding . And then Horrid Henry had a terrible thought . ' Father Christmas was bound to be a slippery character , so he 'd need to booby-trap his bedroom ' What if Father Christmas had decided to be spiteful and avoid Henry 's bedroom this year ? Or what if he 'd played a sneaky trick on Henry and filled a stocking downstairs instead ? Nah . No way . But wait . When Father Christmas came to Rude Ralph 's house he always filled the stockings downstairs . Now Henry came to think of it , Moody Margaret always left her stocking downstairs too @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of her bed , like Henry did . Horrid Henry looked at the clock . It was past midnight . Mum and Dad had forbidden him to go downstairs till morning , on pain of having all his presents taken away and no telly all day . Share But this was an emergency . He 'd creep downstairs , take a quick peek to make sure he had n't missed Father Christmas , then be back in bed in a jiffy . No one will ever know , thought Horrid Henry . Henry tiptoed round the whoopee cushions , leaped over the criss-cross threads , stepped over the skipping rope and carefully squeezed through his door so as not to disturb the bucket of water . Then he crept downstairs . Sneak Sneak Sneak Horrid Henry shone his torch over the sitting room . Father Christmas had n't been . The room was exactly as he 'd left it that evening . Except for one thing . Henry 's light illuminated the Christmas @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ chocolate reindeer . Mum and Dad must have hung them on the tree after he 'd gone to bed . Horrid Henry looked at the chocolates cluttering up the Christmas tree . Shame , thought Horrid Henry , the way those chocolates spoil the view of all those lovely decorations . You could barely see the baubles and tinsel he and Peter had worked so hard to put on . ' Hi , Henry , ' said the chocolate santas . ' Do n't you want to eat us ? ' ' Go on , Henry , ' said the chocolate bells . ' You know you want to . ' ' What are you waiting for , Henry ? ' urged the chocolate reindeer . What indeed ? After all , it was Christmas . Henry took a chocolate santa or three from the side , and then another two from the back . Hmmn , boy , was that great chocolate , he thought , stuffing them into his mouth . Oops . Now the chocolate santas looked a little unbalanced @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from the other side , to even it up , thought Henry . Then no one will notice there are a few chocolates missing . Henry gobbled and gorged and guzzled . Wow , were those chocolates yummy ! ! ! The tree looks a bit bare , thought Henry a little while later . Mum had such eagle eyes she might notice that a few -- well , all -- of the chocolates were missing . He 'd better hide all those gaps with a few extra baubles . And , while he was improving the tree , he could swap that stupid fairy for Terminator Gladiator . Henry piled extra decorations on to the branches . Soon the Christmas tree was so covered in baubles and tinsel there was barely a hint of green . No one would notice the missing chocolates . Then Henry stood on a chair , dumped the fairy , and , standing on his tippy-tippy toes , hung Terminator Gladiator at the top where he belonged . Perfect , thought Horrid Henry , jumping off the chair and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Thanks to me this is the best tree ever . There was a terrible creaking sound . Then another . Then suddenly . . . Horrid Henry ran like he had never run before , up the stairs to his room before Mum and Dad could catch him . Oh please let him get there in time . His parents ' bedroom door opened just as Henry dashed inside his room . He 'd made it . He was safe . SPLASH ! The bucket of water spilled all over him . TRIP ! Horrid Henry fell over the skipping rope . CRASH ! SMASH ! RING ! RING ! jangled the bells . PLLLLLLL ! belched the whoopee cushions . ' What is going on in here ? ' shrieked Mum , glaring . ' Nothing , ' said Horrid Henry , as he lay sprawled on the floor soaking wet and tangled up in threads and wires and rope . ' I heard a noise downstairs so I got up to check , ' he added innocently @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ advice columnist and an experienced writer and broadcaster , Bel Mooney is a bestselling children 's author . Her best-known series of books are about a little girl called Kitty , which is the name of Bel 's own daughter . In this story , Kitty learns a valuable lesson about the real meaning of Christmas . . . Christmas was the best day of the whole year , of course , and this time it seemed better than ever . Kitty 's stocking had been crammed with funny little toys and jokes . After breakfast , when they opened their main presents , Kitty was so pleased . Mum and Dad had what she wanted -- a huge art set , with lots of different paints , paper of all sizes , felt-tips , crayons , pencils and rubbers -- all packed into a lovely carrying case . She had plenty of books too , because she loved reading , and a lovely long scarf from Gran , in rainbow colours . Bel Mooney 's best-known series of books are about a little girl called @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Dan gave her three more soldiers and horses for her castle . She was very happy . Kitty and Daniel were sorry about one thing , though . This year Mum and Dad had arranged to go to Christmas dinner with Aunty Susan and Uncle Joe . That was n't so bad , although they said they would rather have their own turkey . But going to that house meant something that made them both moan . ' Melissa , ' said Daniel , making a rude face . ' Yuk , ' said Kitty . They had to leave all the lovely clutter of wrapping paper and ribbons and glittery pom-poms , and go out . ' Aunty Susan 's house is so tidy , ' groaned Kitty in the car . ' Just like Melissa . Maybe she vacuum-cleans Melissa when she does the carpets , ' grinned Dan . Kitty giggled . ' That 's enough , ' said Dad . There was a delicious smell of food when Aunty Susan opened the door . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ although Daniel and Kitty ducked out of hugging their cousin . ' Why do n't all the children play upstairs till dinner 's ready ? ' said Uncle Joe . But Dan asked if he could practice on his new skateboard on the garden path , and so Kitty was left with Melissa . In this story , Kitty learns a valuable lesson about the real meaning of Christmas ' Do n't you like to wear your best dress on Christmas Day , ' asked Melissa , ' instead of old jeans ? ' They are n't old , they 're my new cords , ' said Kitty indignantly . ' And this is a new jumper . ' It was n't a good start . ' Oh , well , I suppose you 'd like to see all my presents , ' said Melissa , throwing open her bedroom door . Kitty gasped . There was a toy cooker with plastic pots and pans , and a multi-way pram for Melissa 's dolls , and a little pink wardrobe crammed with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with pink rollers , brushes and combs , and a funny dummy-head to work on . ' Who gave you all those ? ' asked Kitty . ' Mummy and Daddy . And I 've got lots of ordinary things like paints and books from aunties and uncles . ' ' Gosh , ' said Kitty ' What did you get ? ' asked Melissa . Kitty told her . ' Is that all ? ' asked her cousin . Suddenly Kitty felt like a balloon that has gone pop . The turkey tasted delicious , and the crackers were fun , and Aunty Susan and Uncle Joe gave her a big noticeboard in the shape of an elephant for her bedroom . ' So you can pin up your lists , ' said Aunty Susan , picking up the paper right away and folding it neatly . At last it was time to go home . Kitty was glad to get back to their own , comfortable , messy house . But Mum and Dad could tell that something was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , looking up at the coloured lights .

Instead, it uses 'get little out of' which does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'beating people like that up' is an NP complement of the complex preposition 'out of', not a VP[-ing] predicate with a causee.

Paddy Gallagher says he has had enough of undercard fights and he can prove he 's ready for a step up with an impressive win tonight Andy Watters 07 December , 2018 01:00 Conrad Cummings aims to get his World Boxing Organisation European Middleweight title back tonight PADDY Gallagher has vowed to " take care of business " against Fernando Valencia at the Titanic Exhibition Centre tonight but the entertaining Belfast welterweight admits he has reached the end of the road as an undercard support act . Gallagher ( 14-4 with nine stoppage wins ) vacated his Celtic title in the hope of getting a shot at the British or Commonwealth belts but nothing has materialized for him since . Now the Belfast hitter , who talks the talk and has proved he can walk the walk , wants to take his career to the next level and he 'll be letting management team at MTK know that over the weekend . " Hopefully I 'll get something in the new year @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " said Gallagher . " It 's not having a go at Conrad ( Cummings who headlines the show in a WBO European Middleweight title scrap with Ferenc Berki ) , we 're friends and good luck to him . But in my opinion I should really have been headlining this one , I 've bided my time enough . " I 'll take care of business tomorrow night and from then on I just want proper fights because if it 's going to be six-rounders against journeymen on undercards to keep busy I 'm not interested . I 'd rather go and work and make proper money . " I 've always produced the goods -- even in America when I was robbed -- and I 've been selling good tickets but I 'm still on the undercard so naturally I 'm frustrated about it . " I 'm gunning for titles from now on . " Gallagher , who has been sparring US-based Monaghan prospect Aaron McKenna in the build-up to this fight , had hoped to get a fight made with British @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from ' the Pexican ' since Garton beat fellow Londoner Gary Corcoran to win the title back in October . " The titles are there and I 'd have no problem fighting anyone , " he said . " I 'm going to have a word with MTK and tell them to get me some of the good stuff . " Gallagher says " people do n't want to pay to see me knock over someone " and his opponent Valencia will struggle to cope with his power tonight . The Spain-based Mexican fought highly-rated Bradley Skeete ( another Gallagher target ) on the undercard of Garton-Corcoran in October and , from viewing the early stages ( there were only early stages ) , you could understand how he got that fight . Valencia looked like a fairly well-organised pressure fighter with a high guard and decent movement but after two close-ish rounds Skeete -- who is n't regarded as a big puncher - caught up with him , landing a right hook followed by a right uppercut and the referee had waved it off @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It was a good finish , " said Gallagher . " That 's boxing , if you get caught with a shot you can get finished off . He was caught with a couple and that was the beginning of the end . " Gallagher , now 29 , intends to win well tonight and will then look to genuinely kick on in his career in 2019 . The 2010 Commonwealth Games gold medalist says he has no plans " to pack it in " but , six years after making his debut , he is determined that tonight 's scrap is the end of the beginning and he should bring his stoppage stats to double figures . FORTUNE has smiled on Cummings and he needs to take full advantage in the main event tonight . Luke Keeler beat him to take this title but the Tyrone man was handed an unexpected opportunity to get it back after the Dubliner vacated due to injury . Cummings ' original opponent , the experienced Gary Rose , pulled out this week meaning that Hungarian Berki provides the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ champion at light-middle but this is a fight Cummings should win . Super-middleweight : Padraig McCrory ( 5-0 ) v Gabor Detre ( 5-4 ) ' THE Hammer ' got past Sean McGlinchey in a ding-dong Belfast-Derry derby last time out and intends to power past 34-year-old journeyman Detre tonight . " I boxed an unbeaten guy in my last fight ( McGlinchey ) , who won a Commonwealth medal in his amateur days , " said McCrory . " Beating him shows what I can do and I 'm only going to get better . " We 're working on lots of different things in the gym . I like to keep the basics as sharp as possible but we 're also working on combinations and defence . I 'm looking forward to putting it all into play on Friday . Tall and rangy , McCrory has a lot of the tools required to be a success and Detre will do well to see it to the final bell . Super lightweight : Sean McComb ( 4-0 ) v Zoltan Szabo ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and should make it 5-0 in less than four months as a pro against Hungarian lightweight champion Szabo . " I 've been pushing for a step up in opponent , " said McComb . " I 've been asking my trainer Danny Vaughan because the people I 've faced so far have been a drop from elite amateurs . " I get little out of beating people like that up and only getting a couple of rounds in so I welcome facing Szabo . In him , I have a proper test before Christmas and the new year and I 'm looking forward to it . " Lightweight : Gary Cully ( 6-0 ) v Mohammed Kambuluta ( 18-5 ) NAAS lightweight Cully is a Belfast regular by now . Last time out he had too much for Jordan Ellison and he has done his homework on Tanzanian opponent Kambuluta who was knocked out by Martin J Ward in October . " We studied him and realised he comes out of the traps quickly to have a go , " said Cully . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ going to have to slow him down and then catch him in the middle rounds . I think he goes down quite easily . I think when I catch him , I 'm going to hurt him and he 's going to quit . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'pulled out of' followed by a noun phrase ('studying for a diploma in football management'), which does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The context describes an action of withdrawing from a course, not causing someone else to move out of or preventing them from doing something.

An angler who reeled in a 5st carp claims he has been " cheated " out of setting a new British record after judges disallowed his catch because the fish was already too big when it was imported into the UK . Vinny Parker , 54 , said he was " shaking like jelly " when he hauled the 69lb 10z carp , known among fishermen as Captain Jack , from the water at Holme Fen Fishery in Huntingdon , Cambridgeshire . The painter and decorator believed he had broken the current official record for the largest catch , set in 2016 when Dean Fletcher fished a 68lb 1oz carp from Cranwells Lake in Wasing , Berkshire . But Mr Parker 's claim was rejected by the British Record Fish Committee ( BRFC ) last month after a judging panel decided Captain Jack was too heavy when it was stocked in UK waters from Israel in November 2013 . Adjudicators also disqualified the catch because the carp had been fed too many pellets while at Holme Fen Fishery before it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Parker claimed he had been treated unjustly by the committee , arguing clearer rules were needed so that anglers are aware of what constitutes a legal claim . The 54-year-old is unable to appeal the ruling . He said : " I feel slightly cheated because the rules are very vague and it comes down to the whim of the judging panel . " There are criteria to work to , but they do n't let us know what it is . This case was an exercise on trying to get the rules down , but they completely fudged it . " The BRFC published guidelines last year outlining how it decides whether a catch has broken an official record . But while the organisation said it analysed factors including height , weight , length and origin of any given fish when they are stocked in Britain , no specific criteria is given . Carp are not native to British waters and those found in the UK are either imported or specially reared here . In a statement , the BRFC said : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and that word British is important , because it was imported from Israel at such a high weight and stocked into the fishery at a high weight . " The second consideration is that for several months the fishery was artificially fed with 150kg of pellets a week , and that goes against the criteria we set . " In response to claims its rules are " vague " and lacked transparency , the BRFC added : " The BRFC has stated on more than one occasion that it will consider claims on their merits . It would be difficult to impose rigid criteria . " Mr Parker suggested the committee was reluctant to issue clearer rules as it could potentially limit their future role in deciding on whether records had been broken .

" Earlier this year , the BRFC announced it was to introduce stricter rules to ensure any fish submitted for a British record attempt was born and raised in the lake where it was hooked . It came after angler Tom Doherty tried to register a 69lb 3oz carp , known as Big Rig , as a new national record after he caught the fish in Shropshire in September 2016 . However , it later emerged Big Rig was bought from a farm at a weight of 40lb and hand-reared to near the record weight before being placed in the water . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'getting out of' in a different context where 'hanging around them' is not a VP2[-ing] predicate that the NP object is being caused to participate in or prevented from. The interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A reader is please Rockstar 's game did n't win the biggest prize at The Game Awards and explains exactly what he thinks it gets wrong . I 'd written this feature already , about the reasons why I think Red Dead Redemption II has been overrated , but once I saw that it failed to win The Game Awards Game of the Year prize I quickly changed the title to show how much I agree with the decision . Especially once I saw Rockstar fans complaining about the loss and immediately inventing conspiracy theories to explain it all . Red Dead Redemption II is not a bad game by any means , I might even go so far as to call it a good game but I do n't think it is anywhere close to being game of the year ( even given this year has n't been that great ) and certainly not the ridiculous game of the generation label that some have tried to attach to it . Advertisement Advertisement For me it fails in three key areas and I 'd like to address each one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the key one for me , such that even if there was n't a single other flaw the game would still be severely compromised not matter what else it got right . Red Dead is just not particularly fun to play . The game as a whole is fun to experience but the horse-riding and particularly the combat is well below the standards of even a fairly low budget third person game . The sad thing is it 's actually pretty good by Rockstar standards , but for some reason the industry 's most successful developer seems to have little interest in gameplay mechanics and has never sought to better itself . The controls are fiddly and awkward and that 's even when you 've got auto aim on , as it gets considerably worse without it . Hand-to-hand fighting is even worse , with hardly any moves and strangely awkward animation that suddenly turns the game into a sub-par wrestling sim , with no sense of weight or impact . Even using a bow is n't that satisfying and that 's usually the best bit in any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ game which is either well made or intrinsically entertaining and that for me is a huge problem . Especially when more competent third person shooters are a dime a dozen . 2 . Pacing In terms of storytelling Red Dead Redemption II is clearly its own biggest fan . I think exploring the wilderness seems so much more entertaining simply because it 's the only place you can get some peace and quiet to yourself . Otherwise you 're listening to computer characters jabbering on and on , sometimes taking up the majority of a story mission just with talking . Advertisement Advertisement GC posed the question in their review of whether the game had so talking because there was a lot of horse-riding or whether it had a lot of horse-riding because Rockstar wanted an excuse for lots of talking . You got a bit of this in GTA , where it sometimes seemed like you were controlling the Knight Rider car as it jabbered away to itself , but in Red Dead Redemption II the amount of pointless conversations are never-ending . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in key details about the characters . Why is Arthur so loyal to the gang and what is he getting out of hanging around them ? You can see in the game that whenever you go off and do your own thing you 're much more successful so what , in the game 's world , is the logic that 's supposed to be keeping him back ? That much loyalty requires explanation but it 's based on things we 're told about but never really see , which makes it all seem just like a contrivance . But the biggest problem is how long the game takes to get to its point . Red Dead Redemption II is just too long and even when it seems to be building to a conclusion it still takes ages to get there and you have dozens more story missions -- mostly involving riding along and talking to people -- to complete . Even the epilogue goes on for far too long , and far past my point of caring . Advertisement 3 . Innovation The odd thing about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and huge budget it 's actually a very old-fashioned kind of game . You can tell the design was nailed down years ago and it just took this long to make , as compared to Zelda : Breath Of The Wild or The Witcher 3 its world seems very static and nailed down . The lack of real interaction with people -- you can talk to them but rarely get much choice in what you say -- is also very disappointing and makes the endless dialogue even harder to put up with . Not that it has to be similar to any other game to be considered good but there 's nothing in Red Dead Redemption II that is new or original . It looks better than other games but it 's still doing the same things as other open world games from five or so years ago . Take away the presentation and the prestige of who made it and Red Dead Redemption II would be viewed as a very average game . The graphics and atmosphere elevate it to something more but they certainly do n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 'm glad that God Of War -- which really does transform its franchise into something completely different , both in terms of gameplay and narrative -- was recognised as being the better game .

The distraught wife of a man with dementia has been through a two-and-a-half-year fight for answers over severe bruises she believes her husband suffered while in hospital . Annette Boyd , 59 , spoke to the ECHO about her ordeal , which involved initial failures by police to properly investigate her claims that husband Alex , 80 , had been injured while being cared for at Cheshire and Wirral Partnership NHS Trust 's mental health unit , Springview , in June 2016 . The hospital denies Mrs Boyd 's claims - and police say they have found no evidence any member of staff behaved inappropriately . The most severe bruises were only discovered after Mr Boyd was transferred to the Countess of Chester Hospital and his wife requested a full-body examination following the previous discovery of relatively minor bruises , including on his genitals . Photos taken on June 29 at Chester , the day of the examination and a day after his transfer from Springview , showed bruises to Mr Boyd 's hips and arms . Pictures of severe bruising to Mr Boyd 's genitals and groin were then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sufferer Alex Boyd , 80 , at his home on Old Chester Road , Wirral .

Mrs Boyd , of Old Chester Road , Birkenhead , cares full-time for her husband at her home with help from family members and carers . He also suffers from type 1 diabetes and a form of leukaemia which progresses slowly and generally affects people over 60 .

She said : " I was just crying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the night before ' .

Injuries to Mr Boyd 's stomach and upper hip , pictured on the 11th July . Mrs Boyd said these were the same injuries she said he suffered at Springview , but had become more developed as time passed ( Image : Annette Boyd ) These were only discovered when her husband told her he had " some new tattoos .

She said : " The nurse went to get his cushion and we went to lift him up and he said , ' please do n't hurt me ' . The letter , which the doctor sent after being approached by Mrs Boyd for an opinion , said : " This is out of keeping and beyond what I would expect with his modest thrombocytopenia a feature of his leukemia .

River Plater were crowned the champions of South America with victory over Boca Juniors ( Reuters ) As much as reigning over an entire continent , as well as two of the ultimate football cities , this is what the end of the world feels like . That is what this unique Copa Libertadores final defeat will mean to Boca Juniors , and that element was every bit as essential as the jubilation of just lifting that great trophy -- with that great goal -- for River Plate . Delivering what was a fourth Libertadores for the club only stood alongside the consequence of denying their great rivals , although Juan Quintero will now surely stand alone as a legend in the club 's history after that supreme extra-time winner for the ages . It will also only burnish the legend of manager Marcelo Gallardo , who is talked of as Argentina 's next star manager , given it was his inspired decision to introduce Quintero as a sub . A final like no other , played in a context and a different continent like no other , had stakes and a tension like no @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ such extremes was also pushed to such extremes -- and to Europe , with the controversial decision to stage it in the Santiago Bernabeu after the violence that saw the second leg initially postponed -- but that was in every sense . It was in terms of going to extra-time and a goal right at the death , in terms of drama given Leonardo Jara had so sensationally hit the post for Boca just before Gonzalo Martinez 's clincher , in terms of scarcely believable events and in terms of the quality of the goals . For exclusive articles , events and an advertising-free read for just ? 5.99 ? 6.99$9.99 a month With an Independent Minds subscription for just ? 5.99 ? 6.99$9.99 a month It made it all feel worth it after so much trouble and so many postponements , although that will not feel the case for Boca today . Whether they now appeal remains to be seen . Even a stadium as storied as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like this . This is why so many modern football stars -- like Leo Messi , like Diego Simeone , like the Juventus squad -- were here . They and the stadium might have seen better quality of a football , the brilliant goals excepted , but that 's not what this incredible occasion was about it . Dario Benedetto scored Boca 's opening goal ( Getty Images ) It was about just winning . It was about the emotion of Martinez as he celebrated that last goal to really finish it , about arms raised to the heavens in the celebration that moment started , and the bodies slumped to the ground in mourning on the other side . It was about what was happening among the fans behind both goals . It is also perhaps fitting that this ultimate football rivalry , this duality , really came down to knife-edge moments . And that just did n't just apply to the passage of play from Jara to Martinez that ended the game . It was the case with the goal that really @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ itself would have been fitting to win any final . One of the great Boca goals will now only bring the worst possible memories for their fans . Up until that moment just before half-time , the tension had really only served to suppress the game , reducing it to play characterised by the rawer elements of Argentine football : physicality and aggression . It also meant there eventually had to be a release . Lucas Pratto draws River level in the second half ( AFP/Getty Images ) The energy so suppressed by such tension was only ever going to lead to an explosion . That came in the 43rd minute , in a passage of play that can only be described as exhilarating . It fittingly flowed -- for that is the word -- from the first moment where the more technical River put a proper move together , with Boca goalkeeper Esteban Andrada ending up stranded on the ground outside of his box . It was a true moment of danger ... but not at that end . Another miscontrolled ball from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of breakneck counter that ca n't but take the breath away . It was n't just the speed , though , but the very special nature of every element of the goal . There was first of all the divine through ball of Nandez , its elusive trajectory bringing a despairing dive from Javier Pinola that only added to the aesthetics , and brought even more out of Benedetto . He took the move on to another level by taking a skip over the defender 's sliding body , bringing the ball on and so fluently and perfectly setting himself up in front of Franco Armani . Gonzalo Martinez tries to deliver from the left wing ( AFP/Getty Images ) The striker momentarily had the collective emotion of the stadium at his mercy , but amid so much tension held his nerve . It was 1-0 Boca . And so wondrously . The fact the goal was scored in front of the boisterously noisy Boca brought the entire moment to an extra level , too . That , again , was what this was about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they would have to sit in the same place in silence . If the goal emphasised the primary difference between the sides in how Boca are capable of scoring out of nothing , River would soon display the benefit of actually controlling the ball and the play . They also held their nerve in a different way , as they just kept trying to do what they 're good at : putting together proper passing moves . Quintero finds the net with a sublime finish ( AFP/Getty Images ) One of those inevitably paid off , as Gallardo 's side worked their way into the box for Pratto -- of course -- to finish . Now the River fans exploded , but at the other end of the pitch . Their team by now had control so much of the play , and soon had an extra man . Perhaps the only surprise in a match that was so taut and tight that it went the distance , was that the first 90 minutes of football had n't seen a red card . That changed at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was sent off for a second booking . There was no changing the direction of the game now , and no stopping Quintero 's brilliant shot . Gonzalo Martinez scored River 's third and final goal ( AFP/Getty Images ) There was also to be no Boca comeback , but there was that crescendo of play . That climax to take it further as an event . Although Jara so amazingly hit the post in the final moments , the desperation to get that equaliser only left their entire half despairingly open at the other end , leaving Martinez a clear run to make it 3-1 . That led to the strike that secured it , and yet another striking image . As Martinez ran direct at goal , so many of his teammates ran in opposite directions - some to the bench , some to the fans - as they knew that was it . They knew what they were experiencing . It was the clearest , purest of emotions : the jubilation of victory for River .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'get some sort of enjoyment out of winding up fans', where 'winding up fans' is a gerund phrase acting as the object of the preposition 'out of', not a VP2[-ing] predicate with a causee. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

Mike Dean is a disgraceful ref at the best of times but when he is in toon he excels in showing just how bad he is. as for the prickpundit whoever that was on TV during the incident with Perez saying the ref was right to continue needs to give his head a shake .... whatatool ! ! ! ! Kneebotherm8 Aye , it left us down to 9 players and could have cost us dearly ........ poor refereeing ..... Anita kick up the Hoop Left us down to nine players when the HEAD INJURY should have been treated immediately on the pitch ... simonjames60 no it shouldnt nothinig to treat all theatrics and a ploy to hold up play Kneebotherm8 They immediately went up to the other end of the pitch and would have scored but for an excellent save from Dubravka ....... Dean had a good view of the elbow on Perez looking at the replays .... he bottled the decision and we very nearly paid the price .... Toontaff I was seriously worried about his Brylcreem heed , too ! KennySamsung @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be talking about the incidents that did n't go in our favour , the defence looked all over the place at times , however Rafa is right about VAR , it then becomes a different game with the Ref realising he is n't as good as he himself and the FA thinks he is . Anita kick up the Hoop I disagree strongly ... that non decision was as blatant a penalty , red card and more importantly a HEAD INJURY than anything I 've seen this season .... to allow play to carry on was dangerous , the ref will be punished ... the player will get a red retrospectively .. and Newcastle wo n't benefit one bit . simonjames60 garbage 1 . it wasnt dangerous to play on . perez is clearly fine . no genuine injury 2. we were lucky not have lascelles off first half for chopping down traore Paul Reid So what did Newcastle , the Leeds United of the Premier League do to win it , what a bunch of entitled cretins some of their fans are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Do n't even know why they posted on here , a site intended for Newcastle supporters . Antagonistic small timers -- do n't let them get to you . GlasgowMag I know it 's always interesting to hear other fans pull out the entitled email protected ! ! Ye been supporting our club for 49 years my whole life and have n't seen them win anything but apparently I 'm entitled ! ! ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Paul Reid I said some , so wind it in . Anita kick up the Hoop Listen to Mr internet hard " wind it in " ... are you Jeremy Kyle ? You look a right lad mind in you profile photo ... like Morrissey with an eating disorder . Paul Reid Still hiding ? Anita kick up the Hoop Terrified .... Paul Reid It 's called the internet , it 's worldwide . Anita kick up the Hoop Even in Wolverhampton ? ... the wheel gets delivered next Wednesday @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I do n't live there , are insults all you have ? Anita kick up the Hoop You do n't live there ... but you are aware of its existence yes ? GlasgowMag Weird comment can you further explain your point ? ? Paul Reid Yes , stop complaining about the opposition , the ref , the colour of the grass and explain what your team did to win . Your fans think they 're so special , they 're not , try eating some humble pie . Anita kick up the Hoop You Womble ... we know our team is n't special ... we 've said for 11 years we have turned out ( in the main ) poor sides ... we 've consistently called this side ( the one that finished 10th last season ) a " championship outfit " ... far from being " entitled " we 've fully backed this set of lads and management staff mainly because of their grit and determination NOT because of their silky skills ... we turn up DESPITE knowing the standard of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ENTITLED you need a new dictionary . Proves what point ? ... like I said .. calm your knickers down and look at the incident .. a result altering mistake .. that 's all , a blatant bad decision that could have been very dangerous . simonjames60 nonsense . you cant base changing the result on that one decision . Anita kick up the Hoop Are you on medication ? It would have been a penalty AND a sending off ... of course it would effect the result glassjawsh-got-banned you need a hobby . Take up gardening or something instead of wasting your free time acting like a email protected John Davies Here , here Paul , beat Newcastle at home how dare we ! DC1964 Nothing special this season you idiot ! Anita kick up the Hoop Are you on a period ? .... take emotion out of it for a minute ( have a camomile tea or something ) and look at the incident .... a blatant elbow that warrants a red and a penalty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have altered had the right call been made then you should n't be left unsupervised .... Paul Reid As I said above , you sound like one of the " some " mate Anita kick up the Hoop Yet you ca n't explain yourself ... Newcastle fans " entitled " .... yeh , we are a spoiled set of supporters up here . Paul Reid See below , I stand by saying you are an entitled bunch in the main , not all , but a large section , everyone knows it . they can be the best team to promoted from championship ever , but still not finish as high as we did in 93/94 you 're not factoring in this years receivng premiership teams could be better than 93 hence this years " best promoted championship team " could be the best ever , but still finish lower than 3rd Anita kick up the Hoop Do n't be so stupid you absolute troll ... they do n't have players of the caliber of Cole , Beardsley , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ... yesterday was the first away game in which they scored two goals .... not in the same league as that NUFC side Anita kick up the Hoop One more thing ... I 've heard on a few occasions now that this Wolves side are supposed to be " the best promoted side ever " ... do the actual Wolves fans take that lie seriously or does it embarrass you ? Paul Reid Time will tell . Anita kick up the Hoop What ? ... " time will tell " ... did you watch football before this week ? ... your side are n't as good as Keegan 's reserve side that finished 3rd in their first season in the premiership . Have a day off lad . Nottingham Forest 94-95 season were n't too far off that either -- 72 goals and 77 points for a newly promoted team simonjames60 if his , if that , just get over it ref was poor and missed potential reds for both teams lfirst half , ascelles clotheslined Traore when running through @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to 10 men too . Anita kick up the Hoop " Clotheslined " ... wow ... that did n't happen X , WHY , Y MAN . Oh , I 've never heard this before ! Where have you been for the last two years ? Typical ill informed " Sky Sports " , Do n't think for yourself , Believe in stereotypes , meme s**t ! What have Newcastle fans been saying for the last two years against this same Andy Gray and Richard Keys invented Pantomime rubbish ? " We Do n't Demand A Team That Wins Things , Only A Team That Tries It 's Best when On The Pitch . " So we are back to the " Deluded Geordie " thing because that is all you have got when it comes to a difference of opinion . Who 's saying anything in terms of the result ? Fair enough Wolves won on the day and good luck to them because I am not holding any grudges . I just love it though when daft idiots come on a blog @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ might comment on or write an article . As though everyone is automatically of the same opinion and tarred with the same brush . You need to give your heed a shake man , FFS ! Paul Reid It 's called an opinion , it does n't change yours , so what . You get more fans in than us at the moment , great ( Although we have major ground expansion planned ) but that 's all you have , why do you think you should be in any better position than you are now ? I support my club regardless of division and do n't expect to win every game because we 're Wolves , can you really say that of most NUFC fans , really ? X , WHY , Y MAN . Who is mentioning any of the stuff you have just come up with there ? You still can not get off the deluded thing can you ! We are absolutely rubbish at the moment and will be lucky to stay up this season let alone anything else @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ right to be anywhere in this league or win trophies etc We have no chance of progressing anywhere as a club with Mike Ashley in charge . In fact we are more likely to end up in the third tier with that fat git in charge . Yes , Because you are listening to the media and other fans who now have nothing more than a stereotype to go off . Newcastle fans are deluded is the Sky Sports narrative and all fans have fallen for it Hook Line and sinker as though it is gospel Danimal Yes . We 're the same . We want to enjoy our football . How does that make us ' entitled ' ? Lazy stereotype . glassjawsh-got-banned Do n't be that guy who has nothing better to do than start fights on other side 's boards . It 's a bad look . nufcslf Should n't have been a sole at the match in the first place , the so called boycott went well . The fans that you are refering to are just a load @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Your team was sh*t today also . Two rotten teams really , neither of which belong in the prem . Keegans side that finished 3rd in its first season and the top five for several seasons after was the best promoted side and always will be . Go back and looked it actually happened . Danimal Entitled ? Please explain . Will Venus I have some mates who are Leeds fans . Until Saturday , when they got a really soft penalty against QPR , the general consensus amongst them , and I quote , was ' If one of our players was hit with a machete , we still would n't get a penalty ' . I thought that was the comparison you were making between them and NUFC as we feel the same . If it was , you are correct , well informed and welcome to post on here anytime to interact in proper adult conversation . However , I do n't think it was . Have you had you 're head buried in the sand for the last 12 years , at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but are painfully aware of what we are getting under the current ownership , which is neglect , downsizing , asset stripping and probably sinking without a trace if it continues . You talk about ground improvements at Molineux , to increase your capacity and heighten your ambitions ? We have had that for decades now , and still nothing to show for it . You can criticise NUFC all you like , in every facet , we are more than fair game and I would probably agree with most of it , but do n't criticise the supporters , other than to say now , more than ever , we have become moderate , subservient and loyal to the point of stupidity , enabling Ashley to do as he pleases . Yesterday being a prime example . Good luck to you . You are an ambitious club with a nice little ground , a half decent manager and a lovely kit Toontaff You and John Davies are certainly excellent ambassadors for the Wolves ' fanbase -- I 'm trying to think of a better description than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't seem to be one . Leazes , can you come up with one ? Meanwhile , I 'll just say you two come across as a right pair of totally thick twots ! Rich Lawson Black Country Bobkins ? Tweed Mag If you get some sort of enjoyment out of winding up fans of other clubs , gloating after a positive result and generally being a bit of a pillock -- then you have come to the wrong site . Amusing as you must think you are , in a short while your comments will look even more childish and badly informed . Away fans will always be welcome at Newcastle as we are a friendly lot , good luck for the rest of the season , Merry Christmas and get better soon . John Davies You are a list , Matt Murrey did use the word cheated , either way would you and the Newcastle fans be moaning if it were the other way round , the Holy incident wasntwasntw deliberate , look at the replays and didnrd look at the player @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hit him on the chest or do replays lie ? What does Boly or any other player have to do when going for a ball put their hands down the back of their shorts ! ! ! ! ! ! GlasgowMag He basically led with his elbow ! ! Ok he got away with it on another day it would of been dangerous play , straight red and a penalty but to say otherwise is basically email protected ! ! Anita kick up the Hoop By the way ... it 's " liAr " mate . JoeHarvey A bizarre response . The photo above shows him looking directly at Perez . Sickandtired " It 's a clear elbow on Ayoze Perez ... " Your own manager admits it was an elbow ! Fact of the matter is at the very least the game should have been stopped . Perez was bleeding from the nose and hit the ground like a sack of spuds . DC1964 Idiot ! Anita kick up the Hoop Regardless of the foul , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ allowed Wolves to break when there was a clear head injury ! .... awful decision not to give the penalty and red card but from a safety point of view his non action could have been disastrous . He will now say he did n't see the incident , the FA will ban Bolly for three games and Newcastle wo n't benefit one iota . Just like away at Old Trafford a blatant penalty and result altering decision is missed .... shocking standard of refereeing . Sickandtired The ref told Perez that he believed the ball hit him in the face . Still does n't excuse not stopping the game like . Danimal They wo n't ban him . That only happens when it 's one of our players who has ( allegedly ) committed the offence , does n't apply to our opponents . I can think of plenty of occasions when the FA have acknowledged they 've cheated us with a red card ( after we 've lost the points and ca n't have them back ) and several " trial by TVs " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ when an opposition player was charged later . McManaman and Graveson spring to mind . simonjames60 totally biased nonsense i guess that like the Ref , you completely missed when lascelles clotheslined Traore when running through on goal too ? simonjames60 genuine head inury ? are you kidding ? hysterical . do you really buy into this rolling on the floor at slightest contact nonsense ? he was up and absolutley fine after 5 mins i think chance of any genuine head injuiry is zero . get a grip . Anita kick up the Hoop Five minutes .. the ref has to act in the first seconds .. he was elbowed in the face and landed badly ... the ref HAD to react to that . Damon Horner It 's a zero risk approach with possible head injuries these days . Not up to Dean to assume play acting in those cases . Rich Lawson Head injury stops the game . ( Full Stop . ) MrKinnear Forget cheated , " we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ win the game . Wipe away the tears and move on . I suspect by the end of the season some other manger will want VAR as NUFC have had a dodgy decision on their favour . There is an important 7 week period for the club starting now . Anita kick up the Hoop " Eye " .... not suspicious MrKinnear So the other thing you took from my post was an error with predictive text ! FFS it 's no wonder the club is in a mess with supporters like you . Anita kick up the Hoop It does n't matter how many times you try to enter " Aye " Into the text box , predictive text will NEVER re spell it as " eye " . You are telling porkies . Toontaff Leazes has his aye on him ! Anita kick up the Hoop He 's a clear troll Toontaff With all the cash in the PL , all the tv cameras instantly showing what happened , a fat , unfit , old coot @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that most likely meant we lost 1-2 , rather than winning 2-1 . Why is it football that avoids VAR , used in rugby union and league , with hawk-eye etc used in cricket and tennis ? Love to see our new Wolves ' pals ' /trolls ' views next time a major rick goes against them ............. will they be saying it 's fair enough , considering what happened here ? nufcslf By the owner , we already know ........ Leazes . Treason by Mark Jensen as well .... I 'd love to know how his friend at True Faith managed to liaise with the club in double quick time to put on flag displays in both ends of the ground and put out that back stabbing act of betrayal so soon before ..... no volunteers needed for a PR show of Unity ! Well Mark .... you 've got Ashley for a lot longer now .... the MOTD team were obviously planning for something else , and they did n't even have any united players to interview after the game .... the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .... .... So which of your mates did the dirty ? Wezza and all is quiet regarding the " takeover " too . FCB gambled with the PR using Lambias mate and it worked for him . The only backfire was the Almiron story . Their owner has already rubbished that as false . Leazes . Yes .... but there is enough nonsense for the chronicle to fill page after page . X2 I 've been wondering if the True Faith boys were in Ashley 's pocket . Is that all it is ? A bit of support from the club for the flags ? ? ? Leazes . Jensen puts out a statement like that then Alex Hurst hoists up the flags ! .... ..... the problems surrounding this club are bigger than I thought . X2 They might as well be honest about it and just put up white flags . Leazes . The first statement went out by Simon Bird quickly followed by Mark Jensen and Mark Douglas ..... clearly a consensus to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for potential investor Peter Kenyon .... friend of Llambias who was already seeking backers and already knew the score here ! Deserved a point at least . That Wolves team was poor , but lucky and helped by poor defending . With Dummett back I expect us to be more solid at the back but we must stop playing Ritchie , Manquillo and Diame for a while . The three of them run their socks off but shocking going forward , especially delivery and creativity . With Kenedy and Dummett back , I think Atsu should start in favour of Ritchie . Has been doing better with each game . Murphy would be my choice , but his Stamina is poor . Barely lasts 40 mins on the pitch before fading . Bring on Huddersfield and Fulham ! Toontaff Did Ritchie beat the first man with any of his crosses ? Atsu was far better . Best game he 's had in PL . Anita kick up the Hoop Ritchie is the most overrated player at the club ... Kneebotherm8 Manquillo comes on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ end of the game ....... fckn unbelievable ..... X2 But at least we can look forward to news on the takeover bids talks which Mike Ashley says are " at a more progressed stage than they have ever been " . He also said : " I am hopeful for the Newcastle fans , for the club , for everybody , that I will be able to step aside and we will be able to get an owner in that will please everybody . " I 'd like it to be before the January transfer window . " Hooray ! We 're saved . Wezza Hehe yes and it 's conveniently all went quiet ! Wor Lass Boly got away with murder all afternoon . The ref was poor but not just for us . He missed quite a few blatant fouls in both directions . The problem with Perez is that he spends so much time on the ground trying to con free kicks that the referees union has blacklisted him . He s the boy who cried wolf . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an assault on Perez by Boly ..... but , like you say , he 's spent so much of his career trying to con Referees that they 're very dubious in giving him decisions . Rich Lawson He 's more like the Sheep . Kenny Ive chucked my hand in , finished with Newcastle United , had enough of the Fat Rat & following a team that is forever battling relegation and fielding krap players that are not fit to wear a Black & White shirt . i have better things to do . Tweed Mag Been down that road many times Kenny . I 've just read two responsible articles by Chris Waddle ( BBC web site ) and Daniel Taylor in the Observer ( entitled " Will Newcastle ever be set alight under the Mike Ashley regime ? " ) . They both manage to set out what is wrong at the club , fairly and without being over-dramatic . Ashley can not be allowed to ruin the club without giving him a hard time , using every reasonable tactic there is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ boycott , especially as so much had been achieved -- for example the London lads . Apart from the fools at the Chronicle and Sky , the other sensible journalists and commentators are beginning to see exactly what is going on . I 've tried giving up with Newcastle United many times , but I know it is impossible . The oaf can not stay forever . Leazes . too late ... Leazes . Are you boycotting the Mag ? Kenny I boycotted the chron months ago , my last posts will be today . i will be back when the Rat is gone , if im still alive . JohnnyH Sorry to hear it Kenny One less decent fan on here , against the Ashley PR machine Leazes . It has incorporated the Mag Now . Toontaff Wallpaper owned by Mike , at that ! Anita kick up the Hoop Have you ever listened to the TF podcast ? .. they think they are representative of Newcastle fans they are student union types spouting self @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out dull sentence one of the other inbetweeners says " spot on " or " 100% agree mate " ... I ca n't believe just how bad the fanzine has become from what was a edgy and exciting read in its early years ... today it 's like some Corbynista momentum pamphlet written by Owen Jones ... dreadful Kenny Pointless posting , to many trolls spoil it for everyone its down to a couple of sad cases who use various aliases . X2 At least you 've chipped in to try to help the real Newcastle United . Rich Lawson Sorry to hear that pal , I did that for a few months in the close season.but if you keep reading this it 's hard not to be drawn back in .. Wezza Sorry to hear that Kenny , here is hoping but it wo n't be anytime soon ! I will oust the trolls in your absence ! X2 Excellent stats , if a bit depressing . Rich Lawson Do you know what , I would boycott @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ must be someone with the IT expertise and what else ? Cushty lad Any chance of you chucking this site as well & give us all a break ? And take ya dad ( leazes ) with you . Ta . Cushty lad And before all & sundry join in , I do n't do games , buy from sports direct tat , or like the fcb either . Just to be clear . Toontaff You forgot to thumb yourself up ! Cushty ! Cushty lad I know . Well no f**ker else doz ! ? ? Rich Lawson See you 2moro then , arrgh me too ! Anthony Davis Realistic wolves fan here ...... it was a red card and a sending off no question , but to use that as the main reason why you guys lost is a bit pathetic . The ref also missed fouls committed by your players who were already on a yellow when they should of been sent off for a second bookable offence but he let those slide , why @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that ? You also have to look at the game itself , both teams were poor but one team wanted it more then the other and that team got the win . The second goal has nothing to do with being a man down and everything to do with poor defending by poor players . Anita kick up the Hoop How can you say we did n't get a blatant penalty AND the red card that would have followed then in the same sentence state that it was n't the main reason we lost ... it was a result changing non decision . Anthony Davis Because a penalty is n't a 100% guaranteed goal , there 's no guarantee you still would of won , there 's no gurantee that Wolves would n't of scored .... heck you still could of lost 3-2 ...... and if we 're talking about a result changing decision we should of had all your players sent off who got away with clear yellow card offences and should of been sent off for second bookable offence . Stop acting like Wolves @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ..... Newcastle should of had a lot more then 1 sent off . It 's all ifs , buts and maybe 's . Toontaff Would of .............. that 's one of the common mistakes on here made by our resident trolls -It 's ' would have ' , by the way ............ troll ............... Anthony Davis Resorting name calling like a 6 year old because you have no actual counter argument ..... classy . If you want the troll comment you can have them .... enjoy the Championship next season ( y ) Toontaff Another comment often repeated by our resident trolls . If you behave like a 5 year old , on here , I 'll respond like the older , more mature child , troll ! Considering your own ex-player/pundit said it was 100% a penalty and could be a red card , your whole argument is pointless . Anthony Davis I know what he said as I watched it ..... I even said above it was a red and a penalty above ... you missed that part ay ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ titles that contains lies ..... pretty much sums you and your team up tbh . Kenny Its another troll . forums full of the scum Anita kick up the Hoop Why do people say " resorting to name calling " ... it 's not RESORTING it 's choosing to name call ... it can be enjoyable Anita kick up the Hoop No one said won .. I said it changed the result ... are you that dense to not see the link Anthony Davis Could of changed the result ..... Are you that dense to think you guys would of won ... Lmao ... Anita kick up the Hoop Again .. , I did n't say WON ... I said it would have changed the result Kneebotherm8 No guarantees with any penalty ........... but 10 v 10 for the rest of the game ? ...... that should have been the outcome if the ref had n't bottled it .......... Tweed Mag Do you post on similar sites belonging to the other clubs you have played so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Davis I do when said sites post articles with titles that are z complete lie ..... still ca n't find where Murray said you were cheated .... fake article is fake . Tweed Mag Can you list the ones you have posted on ? Thanks . Perhaps point out the ' lies ' too . This will help with your credibility . Anthony Davis Can you point out where he said the word ' cheated ' as the article title claims . I 've never posted anything on Leeds ..... please feel free to go and check .... Anita kick up the Hoop I did n't say you 'd posted Rich Lawson Hard on for Leeds is indeed hard core p##n Kneebotherm8 Matt Murray , sat in the Sky studio next to Shola Ameobi , said it was a definite penalty and possible sending off on watching the replay , although initially he was n't sure , that 's where VAR will be a welcome addition next year . Anthony Davis " Wolves pundit admits on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ someone please point out where that was stated by either pundit ? Nothing but a lie for a click bait article . Kneebotherm8 He did n't use the word cheat as far as I can remember but he did say it was a definite penalty and a possible sending off ......... journos sensationalising ? ....... that 's an unusual occurrence ..... Rabid Dog So you have taken valuable time out of your day to create a new disqus account to have a go at the fans of a team you beat . THANKYOU SOOO MUCH for your commitment and civic duty in keeping us all straight on here . We are truly grateful for your insight ..... said no one ever . I think it says.more about you , than it does about any of us ..... but then what do I know Leazes . He right though .... they are the better side , and the decisions are n't out of the ordinary and did n't effect a woeful United squad , this is the workmanlike team which Ryder and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .... it is devoid of top class match winners and gamechangers , or dead ball players ..... its Ashley to a tee .... its Ryders dream team ..... its the work ethic squad that the fans demanded . 50,000 happy bunnies . Kneebotherm8 No dead ball players for a long time ......... could Rondon be our answer for the next 6 months ? Leazes . no Leazes . Remember when we got a kick on the edge of the box and Robert or Shearer would smash them in ...... we do nt seem to score outside of the box from any situation now . Rich Lawson Indeed , why was Rondon putting crosses in yesterday ? Tweed Mag You sound familiar . . . . good idea to pretend to be a Wolves fan . Vodkamagpie I 've watched the replay regarding the yedlin sending off . It was n't a red card , it was n't a yellow card , it was n't even a freekick for your side , should of been a freekick awarded @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and jota pulled yedlins right sleeve to get in front of yedlin . I ca n't think of any Newcastle players that you claim should of had second bookable offenses , wolves players were mostly on yellow . But well done , you got the 3pts , overall you have impressed me this season , getting great results against the manchester 's , arsenal , Chelsea . I do like your formation and set up , so credit to your manager Kenny TROLL SCUM Leazes . Leave him alone he 's a Wolves fan . Kneebotherm8 Wolves would have been howling if if one of their players had a Perez like penalty decision go against them ..... Leazes . Everyone would .... funny that the Referees association miss our claims or deem them fake playacting ..... that is another hurdle for United to overcome and it has never even been addressed by the club or the chronicle .. Having read the chains of comments below , the contributor has a tone of Clarko about them . Have n't seen any posts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ re-branded as a Wolves supporter ........... ? Rich Lawson Play Billy Wright ? Why have you not listed alternative answers so how I can see how other people are voting ? Rich Lawson 1 less player than you had/deserved then ! Paul Patterson Well that 's cleared that up . That 'll be three points to us then .. Peaky What 's up with this fuckinguseless site .... posts going missing , going to spam and occasionally not even allowing to type at all .... sort it out fuckingamateurs .... ? ? ? ? ? ? Leazes . Maybe they 're busy having an inquest into the actions of betrayal by True Faith(sic) .... or looking into whoever posted that article in the name of Mark Jensen ? Just a thought ! Peaky Could well be right .... it all stinks ...

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes a situation where Brexit chaos might force Theresa May out of Downing Street, but there is no VP2[-ing] predicate involved, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the construction.

Theresa May faced an overwhelming defeat in vote that could have sent her tumbling out of Downing Street In stormy Commons clashes PM pledged to seek more concessions from the EU in bid to shore up support Donald Tusk said the EU will discuss Brexit but would not reopen talks in Withdrawal Agreement and backstop But she made clear she will not be seeking to get Brussels to drop the concept of the Irish border backstop The premier suggested the Brexit deal might not be brought back to the House of Commons until January 21 Donald Tusk tonight warned the EU will not renegotiate the Brexit deal just hours after a humiliated Theresa May said she was pulling the crunch vote on her plan so she could hold a fresh round of talks . The EU council president said ' time is running out ' and made it clear the bloc @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ agreement , including the controversial Irish border backstop . And he delivered a thinly veiled threat by declaring that the EU will be stepping up its preparations for the UK crashing out of the bloc in March . The intervention came after the PM humiliatingly delayed the Commons vote on her Brexit deal to avoid a catastrophic defeat . She has pledged to return to Brussels to push for concessions after swathes of Tories signalled they will not support the current package . And she will kick off her European tour tomorrow morning by holding a meeting with the Dutch PM Mark Rutte in The Hague . Mrs May faced an historic defeat by up to 200 votes in tomorrow 's vote and must now come up with something to change the tide . Taking to her feet in the packed Commons Chamber tonight to confirm the U-turn , she hinted that her Brexit deal could be delayed for six weeks . She faced taunts and barracking from MPs , and Tory MP and Brexiteer in chief Jacob Rees-Mogg branded her decision to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' defeat ' . And Mr Tusk confirmed on Twitter that he has decided to call a meeting on Brexit at this Thursday 's EU summit in Brussels . But in a snub to the PM , he warned : ' We will not renegotiate the deal , including the backstop , but we are ready to discuss how to facilitate UK ratification . As time is running out , we will also discuss our preparedness for a no-deal scenario . ' The Prime Minister ( pictured in the Commons today ) is battling for her political life amid a huge rebellion over her Brexit deal Donald Tusk tonight warned the EU will not renegotiate the Brexit deal just hours after a humiliated Theresa May said she was pulling the crunch vote on her plan so she could renegotiate She insisted her blueprint was still the ' best deal negotiable ' , and said she still planned to put it to a vote once ' reassurances ' had been secured on the Irish border backstop - but implied that might not happen before January 21 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tweaks will be enough , Mrs May dodged questions about whether she was going to ask for the Withdrawal Agreement to be reopened , and made clear she is not demanding the EU drops the backstop . The statement was immediately condemned by Brexiteers , with Jacob Rees-Mogg demanding that she ' governs or quits ' . The DUP complained that the PM does not ' get it ' and her deal will ' never ' be acceptable to Parliament . Jeremy Corbyn insisted the government is in ' disarray ' and must ' make way ' for Labour to take power , while Remainers accused Mrs May of ' running down the clock ' and called for a second referendum . The premier was also given an extraordinary dressing down by Speaker John Bercow who accused her of ' discourtesy ' for abandoning the vote after four days of debate - urging her to show ' maturity ' by giving MPs their say . The Pound plunged further against the US dollar as markets took fright at the political carnage . Amid a cacophony @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said : ' While there is broad support for many of the key aspects of the deal on one issue -- the Northern Ireland backstop -- there remains widespread and deep concern . ' As a result , if we went ahead and held that vote that deal would be rejected by a significant margin . ' We will therefore defer the vote scheduled for tomorrow , and not proceed to divide the House at this time . ' Mrs May said she would hold talks with EU counterparts over the coming days before heading for Brussels summit on Thursday . ' I will discuss with them the clear concerns that this House has expressed , ' she said . ' We are also looking closely at new ways of empowering the House of Commons to ensure that any provision for a backstop has democratic legitimacy and to enable the House to place its own obligations on the government to ensure that the backstop can not be in place indefinitely . ' Having spent the best part of two years poring over the details @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this deal is the right one . ' The EU has already flatly dismissed the idea that there could be substantive concessions on the divorce package , with Irish PM Leo Varadkar insisting it is ' not possible ' to change the deal . An EU commission spokeswoman said : ' This deal is the best and only deal possible . We will not renegotiate - our position has therefore not changed and as far as we are concerned the United Kingdom is leaving the European Union on the 29th March 2019 . ' In another day of high drama in Westminster : Remainers seized on a ruling from the European Court of Justice saying the UK can unilaterally cancel the Brexit process . Judges confirmed that permission would not be needed from other states , and the country could keep current membership terms . DUP deputy leader Nigel Dodds branded Mrs May - who is being propped up in power by the Northern Ireland party 's 10 MPs - a ' shambles ' . He demanded the government abandons her Brexit deal , warning @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ never will ' . Labour infighting over a second referendum raged as Jeremy Corbyn tried to play down the prospect of a vote that could keep the UK in the EU . It emerged the PM 's Brexit negotiator Ollie Robbins has been despatched to Brussels for crisis talks on how to salvage the deal so it might get past MPs . The Pound slipped to an 20-month low against the US dollar amid growing fears that the Brexit deal has little chance of making it through Parliament . Earlier , Mrs May decided to postpone the vote in an emergency conference call with her most senior ministers after days of intense wrangling over how to navigate the dire situation . Some 110 Tory MPs have vowed to oppose Mrs May 's plan , making victory all-but impossible as they line up with Labour , the SNP , and the Lib Dems . A series of Cabinet ministers and a spokeswoman for the PM all publicly insisted this morning that the vote was ' going ahead as planned ' . But within an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Commons showdown will be put off . The Pound plunged on the news . The decision drew derision from critics , including Tories . Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon accused the PM of ' pathetic cowardice ' and demanded Labour join a no confidence vote to collapse the government , while Conservative MP Nick Boles jibed : ' Nothing has changed , right ? ' Asked when she would bring the deal back to the Commons , Mrs May said under the EU Withdrawal Act the government must lay out its plans to Parliament by January 21 at the latest . However , Commons experts have raised doubts about whether the deadline applies any more now that an agreement in principle has been reached with Brussels . Share Mrs May also signalled defiance over the Irish border backstop - despite it threatening to torpedo her government . ' I set out I my speech opening the debate last week the reasons why the backstop is a necessary guarantee to the people of Northern Ireland , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ can be no deal available that does not include the backstop , ' she told MPs . ' Behind all those arguments are some inescapable facts -- the fact that Northern Ireland shares a land border with another sovereign state . ' The fact that the hard won peace that has been built in Northern Ireland over the last twoa decades has bene built around a seamless border . ' And the fact that Brexit will create a wholly new situation . OJ the 30 March the Northern Ireland - Ireland border will for the first time become the external frontier of the European Union 's single market and customs union . ' The climbdown allows Mrs May to avoid catastrophic defeat , and go back to Brussels to try to get more concessions . But also demonstrates how low her authority has sunk . The entire Brexit deal has been stalled over the so-called Irish border backstop in the divorce package . This is what it means : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ invented to meet promises to keep open the border between Ireland and Northern Ireland even if there is no comprehensive UK-EU trade deal . The divorce deal says it will kick in automatically at the end of the Brexit transition if that deal is not in place . If effectively keeps the UK in a customs union with the EU and Northern Ireland in both the customs union and single market . This means many EU laws will keep being imposed on the UK and there can be no new trade deals . It also means regulatory checks on some goods crossing the Irish Sea . Why have Ireland and the EU demanded it ? Because Britain demanded to leave the EU customs union and single market , the EU said it needed guarantees people and goods circulating inside met EU rules . This is covered by the Brexit transition , which effectively maintains current rules , and can in theory be done in the comprehensive EU-UK trade deal . But the EU said there had to be a backstop to cover what @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Why do critics hate it ? Because Britain can not decide when to leave the backstop . Getting out - even if there is a trade deal - can only happen if both sides agree people and goods can freely cross the border . Brexiteers fear the EU will unreasonably demand the backstop continues so EU law continues to apply in Northern Ireland . Northern Ireland MPs also hate the regulatory border in the Irish Sea , insisting it unreasonably carves up the United Kingdom . What concessions did Britain get in negotiating it ? During the negotiations , Britain persuaded Brussels the backstop should apply to the whole UK and not just Northern Ireland . Importantly , this prevents a customs border down the Irish Sea - even if some goods still need to be checked . The Government said this means Britain gets many of the benefits of EU membership after transition without all of the commitments - meaning Brussels will be eager to end the backstop . It also got promises the EU will act in ' good @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' best endeavours ' to finalise a deal - promises it says can be enforced in court . What did the legal advice say about it ? Attorney General Geoffrey Cox said even with the EU promises , if a trade deal can not be reached the backstop could last forever . This would leave Britain stuck in a Brexit limbo , living under EU rules it had no say in writing and no way to unilaterally end it . The dramatic developments came as Tory infighting escalated dramatically , with leadership rivals including Boris Johnson and Sajid Javid getting ready to pounce . Foreign minister Alan Duncan warned that those who kill off Mrs May deal ' will forever be known as the wreckers ' . He also said if Mr Johnson took over at No10 he will be met with ' loud raspberries in many many different languages ' . ' He is the last person on earth who would make any progress on these talks , ' he said . A growing number of ministers had been urging Mrs May @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ But others insisted that it would look like cowardice , and she needs a demonstration of Parliament 's view to strengthen her hand with Brussels . Mr Rees-Mogg ramped up his bid to oust Mrs May as leader - branding her Brexit U-turn a ' humiliation ' which has left her deal ' defeated ' . The Tory MP and leading Brexiteer said Conservatives are fed up at the feeling of ' drift ' and total lack of direction coming from No10 . He branded the Government a ' mess ' and said the PM 's decision to pull the crunch vote on her Brexit deal has increased the likelihood the UK will crash out of Brussels with no deal . And he laid the blame squarely at Mrs May 's feet - saying the Brexit deal was her policy and she must take responsibility for it . Emerging from a meeting of the powerful Brexit-backing European Research Group in Parliament tonight , he said : ' This deal has been defeated has n't it ? The Prime Minister said she was pulling it saying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Rees-Mogg added : ' I think the likelihood of leaving without a Withdrawal Agreement has gone up . ' But I think we should aim for a managed no deal , and I have made clear and will happily reiterate -- we need a new Prime Minister to do that . If you look at today , this is the failure of the Prime Minister 's policy . The Withdrawal Agreement was her policy , two Dexeu secretaries resigned because they could not support her policy . ' It is personally identified with her . ' She is the one who has led the government to this defeat , she is the one who ought to take responsibility for it . ' He added : ' I thought it was as humiliating for the government to pull the vote as to lose by 100 -- if you were to weight it up . They must have thought they were going to lose it by more , to make it worth pulling . ' Senior figures had spent the weekend trying to quell mounting speculation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the volte face emerged at lunchtime , Environment Secretary Michael Gove said the showdown was ' 100 per cent ' on . He gave a clear indication that the government is seeking concessions from the EU , saying there was ' no-one better placed ' than Mrs May to get more concessions . But he warned there were significant ' risks ' in reopening the Withdrawal Agreement thrashed out with Brussels , including France seeking more access to fishing waters and Spain troublemaking over Gibraltar . Mr Gove dismissed suggestions that Mrs May could be helped in her efforts by a heavy defeat in Parliament . In a reference to the famous resignation speech by Geoffrey Howe that sunk Margaret Thatcher , he warned that would be the ' equivalent of breaking the cricket bat in half before the leader went to the crease ' . ' If colleagues really want to help the PM I 'm sure the PM would urge them gently but firmly to support her tomorrow , ' Mr Gove told BBC Radio 4 's Today programme . Leader of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to MPs after Mrs May addresses them this afternoon . Brexit Secretary Stephen Barclay will also make a separate statement later tonight , on the Article 50 ruling by the ECJ . DUP leader Arlene Foster said this afternoon : ' Just finished a call with the Prime Minister . My message was clear . ' The backstop must go . Too much time has been wasted . Need a better deal . Disappointed it has taken so long for Prime Minister to listen . ' Some of her MPs had threatened to vote against a delay to the vote -- raising the prospect of her being humiliatingly forced into holding it . But No10 confirmed that it will use a procedural tactic to dodge having to get the change past the Commons . When the Commons clerk reads out the orders of the day on Monday evening , the Government whip will call out ' tomorrow ' . This puts off the two remaining days of debate and any votes until a date yet to be fixed . There is no requirement @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ spokesman . But Mr Bercow raged at the tactic in an extraordinary intervention from the chair . ' In any courteous , respectful and mature environment , allowing the House to have its say on the matter would be the right and obvious course to take , ' he said . Shouts of ' resign ' were heard from Opposition MPs as Mrs May concluded her initial statement to the Commons , with a febrile atmosphere sweeping the chamber for the exchanges . Veteran Labour MP Dennis Skinner labelled Mrs May ' frit ' and accused her of ' handing over power to the EU ' by delaying the vote , which prompted a defence of the PM by Tory former Cabinet minister Dame Cheryl Gillan . Tory former minister Anna Soubry also warned Mrs May ' nothing will change ' in the EU 's approach to negotiation as she suggested there was a need for a second referendum . ' Given the Prime Minister 's breathtaking U-turn today , I put it to her that she 's lost the trust and credibility of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ country and most importantly she 's lost the trust and credibility of the European Union as well . ' Mrs May rejected Mr Bridgen 's remarks and said further discussions with the EU would take place . In a rare intervention in support of the PM , Dame Cheryl Gillan said : ' Far from being frit , I think this Prime Minister has shown great courage in coming back to face this House , delay this vote in efforts to get the best possible deal for this country . ' Mrs May spoke with EU council president Mr Tusk last night as she considers a bid to squeeze more concessions out of the EU . The decision drew derision from critics , including Tory MP Nick Boles - who has been pushing for a ' Norway plus ' outcome from the Brexit process An EU summit is scheduled for the end of the week , which could provide a stage for Mrs May to emulate Margaret Thatcher and have a ' handbag moment ' to demand more concessions on the Irish border ' backstop @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was postponed , children 's minister Nadhim Zahawi tweeted : ' @theresamay has listened to colleagues and will head to Brussels to push back on the backstop . ' The European Court of Justice decided that Article 50 can be withdrawn by the UK without permission from other member states . Britain would keep its current terms of membership if it quit the process - meaning keeping the rebate , the opt out from the Euro and exemptions from the Schengen passport-free zone . Today 's ruling will encourage hopes from pro-EU MPs that a second referendum can be held to stop the UK from leaving the bloc altogether . But Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt said the ruling was ' irrelevant ' as it was ' certainly not the intention of the government ' to delay Brexit . The case was brought by a cross-party group of Scottish politicians together with lawyer Jolyon Maugham QC , director of the Good Law Project . Looking visibly emotional as he appeared on the BBC 's Andrew Marr show , he said the UK can do ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ There have been claims that Home Secretary Sajid Javid is also brazenly canvassing Cabinet colleagues for a tilt at the top job if Mrs May is ousted . Aides insisted he is focused on helping the PM get her deal through . In a sign of what could be a torrent of resignations if and when she goes ahead with the vote , Tory MP Will Quince yesterday quit as a parliamentary aide to Defence Secretary Gavin Williamson . At least two government whips were understood to be considering falling on their swords in order to vote against the Brexit package . Mrs May 's position was further undermined today when the European Court of Justice ruled that the UK can unilaterally halt the Brexit process by withdrawing Article 50 . The judgement that permission is not needed was hailed by Remainers as opening the door to holding a second referendum . Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt , in Brussels for regular talks with counterparts this morning , said the government has no intention of reversing Article 50 and voters would be ' shocked ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and David Gauke are said to be in talks with Labour over whether a second referendum or a Norway-style deal would break the deadlock . Sir Alan was on air on BBC 's Politics Live programme as the news of the Brexit delay emerged - risking controversy by laughing as he was told the government was in chaos . Appearing on Radio 4 earlier , he claimed his Tory colleagues lining up to oppose Mrs May 's Brexit deal had not ' thought strategically enough about what the consequences of that would be ' . ' The first is that even if they overturn it they are not necessarily going to get an alternative which they are campaigning for , and instead what they will probably do is set in train a course of events which could lead to chaos in many , many areas , ' he told the Today programme . He warned there could be a leadership contest , or a general election , and said the UK could be ' top dog in Europe at the moment when France is burning and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just beating ourselves up ' . Sir Alan also said Tory former foreign secretary Boris Johnson would be ' met with a very , very loud raspberry in many , many different languages ' if he walked into a negotiating room in Brussels . Mr Gove dismissed suggestions that Mrs May could be helped in her efforts by a heavy defeat in Parliamen And he warned : ' What I really resent is the glee some people have in wanting to oppose this , and then in jostling for their own personal gain . This is contemptible . ' Let 's be absolutely clear that if this goes pear-shaped in the way that it really could , on the back of people opposing the deal that is on offer tomorrow night , the wreckers in history will forever be known as the wreckers . ' Mr Dodds said : ' This vote has been pulled because it would have been overwhelmingly defeated . Deferring the vote is only of any use if the Government is prepared to go to Brussels and insist on necessary changes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this was the best deal available and the Prime Minister 's actions today prove that . ' Mutinous Tories are furious at her deal 's Irish backstop plan , which would see the UK tied to the customs union and more single market checks have to be carried out in Northern Ireland . They warn the UK can not pull out of the backstop without the EU 's permission - potentially keeping the UK ' locked ' to Brussels against its will . Amid mounting opposition to the deal , civil servants have war-gamed two versions of the UK holding another referendum . The first is a straight choice between the PM 's deal and remaining in the EU , and the second would be a leave , remain contest with a second question asking them if they prefer the existing deal or a no-deal departure on World Trade Organisation terms , The Sunday Times reported . If Mrs May loses an immediate no-confidence vote tomorrow , Parliament could have to sit on Christmas Day because the Fixed Term Parliament Act sets a deadline of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , meaning December 25 would be the last chance for any coalition to try to win a Commons majority . It 's believed that the last time the Commons sat on Christmas Day was in 1656 . If these are Theresa May 's final days in Downing Street , she seems remarkably sanguine about it , drinking from a mug which says ' proud to be a Bloody Difficult Woman ' and using a hole punch which read ' please do not remove from office ' Tory rivals are preparing to pounce as Theresa May faces catastrophic defeat over her Brexit deal . With the PM 's position looking increasingly precarious , Boris Johnson and Sajid Javid are among the senior figures on manoeuvres for a looming contest .

Both ex-Brexit Secretaries Dominic Raab and David Davis , Brexiteer Jacob Rees-Mogg , Environment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are also thought to be in the mix .

In a flavour of what could come , Tory MP Will Quince yesterday quit as a parliamentary aide to Defence Secretary Gavin Williamson .

Brexit is taking a " considerable bite " out of London banking jobs according to recruitment firm Morgan McKinley 11 December , 2018 01:00 BREXIT is taking a " considerable bite " out of London banking jobs and the city is preparing for more uncertainty as the withdrawal from the European Union becomes more protracted , according to a recruitment firm . Morgan McKinley said there was a 39 per cent fall in jobs available in November compared with the same month a year earlier , and there was a 4 per cent decrease in jobs available compared with October . There were 14 per cent fewer professionals seeking jobs in November compared with the month before , and 28 per cent fewer than last year . " Brexit has taken a considerable bite out of banking jobs and with an ambiguous Brexit deal on the table , the City 's bracing for more pain ahead , " Hakan Enver , managing director of Morgan McKinley , said . " It 's been a year of peaks and troughs for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ course of the year , however , it 's a relatively flat trend . We are ending the year very much where we began . " MPs were set to vote on Prime Minister Theresa May 's EU Withdrawal Agreement on Tuesday , but this was called off on Monday . Mr Enver said it is " stunning " that the financial industry that " contributes ? 119 billion a year to the economy barely gets a mention " in Mrs May 's 585-page draft Withdrawal Agreement . He called for visa regulations to be modernised in the expectation that increased residency barriers for EU nationals will be offset by an easing of visa barriers for people from Asia and the US . " We are forced to think outside the EU paradigm , which is uncomfortable and disappointing , but also offers opportunities for a truly meritocratic visa system that would enable recruitment from top financial services cities and tech hubs worldwide . " He added that new trade deals would ease the blow from increased barriers to trade and co-operation with the EU @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sometimes only to " plug leaks " in their workforce , according to a new report .

James Hick of Manpower said : " As we enter the Brexit home straight , the picture in the jobs market is very mixed . " Overall , hiring intentions have risen , but this masks an interesting phenomenon in some sectors that we can best describe in terms of a leaking bucket , where employers are hiring to plug leaks in the workforce rather than to grow . " Manpower said that despite the " turmoil " on high streets , employer hiring intentions in the retail and hospitality sector has reached the strongest level in over a decade . " It 's hard to square numbers with turbulence on our high streets with the likes of House of Fraser , New Look and Jamie 's Italian struggling , and reports of up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " However , with an employee churn rate of 30 - 40% , retail has an ongoing need for new talent , and this demand has been exacerbated by a dramatic fall in the numbers of incoming migrants from the EU .

TONY PULIS has warned the days of Middlesbrough spending eight-figure fees on ready-made players are over -- and says the club have to build their future on recruiting cut-price ' rough diamonds ' who can then be sold on . Pulis is planning a major overhaul in the January transfer window , but while he is determined to bring in two or three new attackers , he will not be breaking the bank to remodel his squad . Since dropping out of the Premier League in 2017 , Middlesbrough have continued to spend huge sums on players . More than ? 30m was splashed out to recruit Britt Assombalonga , Martin Braithwaite and Ashley Fletcher , but the trio have failed to make the impact that was anticipated and Pulis would ideally like to move them on . However , their price tag is making it extremely difficult to engineer their exit . Instead of targeting similar players when the transfer window reopens , Pulis insists Boro have to be much cleverer with their recruitment policy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but the Boro boss sees a much brighter future in identifying players at an earlier stage of development , and seeking to train them on . " The aim of this club has to be that we get the best players before anyone else sees them as being the best players , " said Pulis , who takes his side to QPR this afternoon . " So we 're not buying them at ? 15m , ? 20m , ? 30m -- we 're actually buying them at ? 1m or ? 200,000 or ? 300,000 . We 're the first team that gets them for other clubs to come and buy them off us . " That 's got to be the principle the recruitment people work on . It 's no good coming to me and saying , ' Thierry Henry is a good player ' when he 's at Monaco , because there 's no way in a million years we can afford Henry . " I 'm talking about ( deals like ) the lad ( N'Golo ) Kante , who went @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it and they sold him for a fortune . We need to be in that market where we 're finding them before everyone else . " To do that is difficult , because we need to get up to the level that other clubs are at . They 're trawling those areas , and we need to trawl those areas too . We need to be a lot cleverer . " To that end , Pulis has spent the last 12 months overhauling Boro 's recruitment system and scouting network . The appointment of former FA chief Adrian Bevington to the role of head of recruitment in May was a key part of the restructure , and Pulis has widened the scope of Boro 's scouting research , He was clearly unhappy with the backroom set-up he inherited -- the academy 's previous reluctance to allow players to leave on loan was another major bugbear -- and while he is happy with the progress that has been made since his appointment last December , he sees the reorganisation as a two or three-year project . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ almost little dynasties that are built out of nothing and those dynasties stay together , " he explained . " There 's got to be a point that everyone is trying to aim for . " A lot of clubs I 've been at , when I 've first gone in there , you ca n't say they 're a club because there are too many different factions doing their own things , not working for the club . " It takes time to get people to understand we are all together , irrespective of whether it 's a youth game , whether it 's an Under-12s , I like to find out what 's happening and what 's going on . I like to know about recruitment , what they 're doing and what they 're not doing . " We 've set up a data system now , we 've got different things in progress . We 've got people working out in the fields a lot more diligently than they were before . " But it takes time , it does n't just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is in place for a long time and the club will benefit . " In the shorter term , Pulis is hoping to make progress with a couple of his targets before the window officially reopens on January 1 . He is desperate to add some pace and power in attack , admitting Adama Traore has still not been adequately replaced following his departure to Wolves in the summer . " We 've got feelers out , and we know what we want , " he said . " We 're trying to get the best we can possibly get , but if we ca n't , we ca n't . " We hope one or two things might drop for us and we can push on . Everyone knows we 're looking for a bit more in the forward line , more pace and power . " We 're working behind the scenes to get that sorted , but we need to be patient and lucky . If you look at team last year and what Adama did , the amount of home games @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ doors . We need someone who can do that . " Mo Besic is suspended for today 's game at Loftus Road , and Boro are also likely to be without Lewis Wing , who is struggling with a hamstring injury , and Dael Fry , who has missed some of this week 's training sessions because of a cold .

Instead, it uses 'bring something new out of Fielding', where 'Fielding' is not a causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

IT is hard to believe . More than 30 floors high up in the tower of a tall hotel , Rocky Fielding sits by the wide window of his room . The view takes in a broad New York avenue , the yellow cabs so far away they look like small toys , and overlooks Madison Square Garden itself . There on an advertising screen illuminated in electric light is an image of himself , alongside Saul " Canelo " Alvarez , the biggest name in boxing today . And Rocky 's opponent on Saturday . This has been Fielding 's view for the last week . It 's a constant reminder that he really is taking on the sport 's superstar . " There I am there now . How can I not enjoy it ? " Fielding reflects . He looks down at Madison Square Garden and remembers , he can hardly forget , that three years ago he stood outside that historic venue , at one of the lowest moments of his life , and before going on a tour idly dreamed then of fighting at the Garden one day . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Smith in their Liverpool hometown . His mother had been diagnosed with cancer and her treatment was due to begin once Fielding returned from this trip to New York he 'd booked in . " From standing outside there three years ago with my girlfriend saying one day I 'd love to fight here , after losing a fight , thinking what 's going to happen to you ? To be here , doing it . It 's crazy , " Fielding said . On Saturday ( December 15 ) his whole family will be there to support him , including his mother . She wo n't watch the fight itself . But she will see his picture and his name up in the lights on the wall of Madison Square Garden . For this real life Rocky , his journey could n't have begun further away from Madison Square Garden . He spent his childhood boxing , his teenage years getting into to watch any professional show he could but Fielding began his pro career without a promoter , without a television broadcaster and he was even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ did n't know that side of the game , " Fielding told Boxing News . " My first fight cost me more in medicals than what I was getting . My first two or three fights . " It took an offer out the blue , at only five days ' notice , for him to get his first appearance on Sky Sports , when he entered and won a Prizefighter tournament in 2011 . His one round defeat to local rival Callum Smith in 2015 left his career in the doldrums . But even after beating John Ryder and David Brophy he could n't catch a break . At the start of this year had no fights lined up . He was finding it increasingly hard to make a living and with a baby on the way , his second child , he was contemplating whether he 'd need to quit the sport to get a job . Then he got a call , giving him five weeks to prepare to box WBA ' regular ' super-middleweight titlist Tyron Zeuge . Rocky needed that belt . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ family . I had to win it , for my future , for my kids , " he said . Even though his son was too young to understand , Rocky promised to bring him back the belt . He did just that . Fielding beat Zeuge in Germany and could now look for more lucrative paydays . His career was saved . But then another unexpected phonecall took Rocky to a whole new level . Canelo Alvarez wanted to fight him at 168lbs and Fielding did n't hesitate . " The first six months of this year not knowing where I 'm going to the last six months , I 'm a world champion fighting Canelo at Madison Square Garden and that 's why I 'm buzzing and that 's why I 'm loving it , " the Liverpudlian said . " When I lost to Callum people thought that was me there . I knew it was n't . I knew there was something there to me . When all the problems went , I trained with Jamie Moore , I done Brophy , I knew @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , next level , get me something and nothing came now look I 'm in this position here . " The Briton does tower over the Mexican , who steps up to 168lbs for the first time . Fielding has enjoyed the head-to-head face-offs with Alvarez that make clear the height difference between the two of them . " I got a buzz out of it . Good energy from it . The height is big , is n't it ? " he said . " It 's my weight . I have been at this division for a while . I 'm big at it , I 'm strong at it . I spar bigger guys , take bigger shots against cruiserweights and light-heavies . That plays a part as well . " However can Rocky Fielding make the most of it ? There is a universal truth to boxing . That a good big guy beats a good little guy . We know how good Alvarez is . His performances against Miguel Cotto and Gennady Golovkin , whether you agree with the results or not , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ can Rocky Fielding really be . On Saturday he pits himself against against one of the most skilled fighters in the world , at any weight . " Anything can happen as well . The experience he 's got and the world title fights he 's had and the big fights he 's had , it does weigh up to what I 'm bringing and what I 've got . I 'm not stupid , " Rocky said . " They 're an experienced team . He knows what he 's doing . " He 's confident , is n't he ? That 's why he 's stepping up . That 's why he wants to fight . I 'm not being fooled by what he is saying . " But Fielding adds , " It 's boxing . Anything can happen . Once Saturday comes and it 's fight mode , I 'll push all that to the side and everything else around it will be gone . I 'll be fully focused on the fight now and winning and that 's it . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's got . Hopefully my strength and my power can play a big part . I think it will , " he continued . " It 's a big challenge for him , as in the weight , size and moving up , and it 's a big challenge for me as in what he brings and who he is . I 'm just up for it . " I 'm up for a good scrap on Saturday . I 'll give it everything and that 's it . " Even Canelo Alvarez is n't flawless . " He 's human , " Rocky said . " We know he 's only 28 but it 's 50 odd fights he 's had , the camps that he 's been in ... " There is a toll there . " His cuts are still fresh , they 're red and they 're raw . Stepping up with the weight , there 's loads of factors , " Fielding said . " He 's just come off a 12 round war in September with Golovkin . He 'd be stupid @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ think he 'll walk through me . " Perhaps the occasion , the opponent , this whole new level , can bring something new out of Fielding . " Bringing the best out of me , something that no one 's ever seen , not even myself . I 'll do it in the ring . I 'll see where I 'm at . I win , what happens to me then ? That 's all I 'm thinking about , is winning . I 'm not looking part anything . It 's the biggest , " Rocky says . " It 's a dream come true to fight at Madison Square Garden , but everything else around it is for my family , for myself . I 've took it as the challenge it is and that 's what I 'm in it for . It 's a great story the journey I 'm on . " He has thought too about how this journey ends . He 's visualised it . He sees himself " just mixing it " with Canelo . " Just catching @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ think he 's going to come and I 'm going to catch him and unload , " Rocky says . |

Looking at the recent works by Berlinde De Bruyckere currently on display at Hauser & Wirth Somerset ( until 1 January 2019 ) is something akin to looking at the cross-section of an archaeological trench . Every piece in her two new series , Courtyard Tales ( 2017 -- 18 ) and Anderlecht ( 2018 ) , is formed from the careful accretion of layered materials -- aged blankets in the former ; stacked animal hides in the latter -- that makes literal something that has always been there in De Bruyckere 's work . Hers is an oeuvre in which layering -- physical , personal , historical , and art-historical -- is all-important . It is something that , even through the tatters of an old blanket , can give her work an almost vertiginous sense of depth . Born in 1964 in Ghent , De Bruyckere has built her career on work profoundly indebted to a long and local lineage of Old Master painters , to Christian iconography , and to classical mythology , translated through her personal history into a distinctively corporeal corpus . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ taken from human bodies , her work since the early 2000s has been concerned above all with the body and its flesh caught in a ' moment of pain ' that reaches across and collapses the layers of history into a three-dimensional instant . As in myriad Renaissance martyrdoms , it is a moment that -- in shows such as ' Suture ' ( Leopold Museum , Vienna , 2016 ) and ' The Embalmer ' ( Kunsthaus Bregenz and Kunstraum Dornbirn , 2015 ) back to ' Schmerzensmann ' ( Man of Sorrows , Hauser & Wirth , London , 2006 ) -- De Bruyckere has explored as a locked interval of metamorphosis between total suffering and sensuous beauty . In a sculpture like The muffled cry of the unrealizable desire ( 2009 -- 10 ) , it is possible to trace the ghosts of both Marsyas and Saint Sebastian -- tied to their trees and stripped bare for torture . While installing her monumental tree sculpture Kreupelhout ( Cripplewood ) in the Belgian pavilion at the 2013 Venice Biennale , she visited 37 different Saint Sebastians in three @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ male beauty ' that he represents in his agony . In the new works at Hauser & Wirth Somerset , however , the body has disappeared , and the layers of history once cast or stitched into limbs and torsos have become more literal . Courtyard Tales and Anderlecht are , in appearance at least , minimalist works a world away from the figuration of the last two decades : the former a series of seven wall-hangings built up out of rotting and tattered blankets ; the latter a trio of wax sculptures modelled on industrial pallet stacks of curing animal skins . When I meet De Bruyckere in the gallery 's library , housed in one of the old farm 's converted outbuildings , I ask if the absence of bodies marks a departure . She responds quickly : ' It 's more a sort of evolution . ' In the case of Courtyard Tales , that evolution started with turning back in De Bruyckere 's own history , to her De Slaapzaal ( Dormitory ) series from the late 1990s . In those works , she @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the fabric often carefully pierced with apertures that allow the viewer to see right down to the mattress beneath . She needed , she said , ' to translate this feeling again , this very intimate space of a bed ' but at the same time to approach it differently , as someone who , with all the work between then and now , ' ca n't imagine making that kind of a work ' again . ' The layers , ' she says , ' are like the layers that we all have in our mind , which work like memories . And with memories , very often you forget , and all of a sudden something happens , and it brings you back in your history . ' Once you take control of that , she continues , it becomes possible to say : ' Okay , now I can jump into this layer and take it , and start from older experience , and add something new . ' With Courtyard Tales , that something new is , simultaneously , something old : the body . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ history as an artist , are a proxy for the bodies that so dominated her work after De Slaapzaal . Blankets , De Bruyckere notes , ' are the closest thing to your body , even closer than clothes . After a season , you throw clothes away , but the blanket on your bed stays there forever ... The bed is the place where you make love , where you give birth , where you have children , where you die , even where you have the material you use to give first aid when there is an accident in the street . ' It is important , therefore , that the blankets are objects that have absorbed such events . Sourced from charity and second-hand shops , all of De Bruyckere 's blankets have , as she sees it , lived . ' Because of that , ' she says , ' you feel the body even not seeing the body . ' That sense of the body 's absent presence inflects the entire process behind the Courtyard Tales . Having become , in some sense , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and suffer as bodies . The fabric that has made its way into the finished hangings has been systematically aged over the course of one to two years . Hung on frames in a courtyard of her studio in Ghent , sometimes partially buried , they have been bleached , rotted , and eaten away by sun , rain , and animals . Where in De Slaapzaal the blankets were pristine , and her inventions direct and controlled , the blankets in Courtyard Tales are altered by ' nature and time ' . ' It 's a really beautiful thing that happens , ' she says , ' to put them outside ... to create that feeling of a blanket that will fall apart , that will weaken ' , aging in different ways with each season , but in the end retaining its integrity . Once cleaned , the aged fabrics were pinned to the wall , and layered up in a process that she likens to ' making a painting , much more than a sculpture ' : choosing which blankets will go over which , just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In the process , De Bruyckere explains , they became portraits , and once again called back to the Old Masters and the old martyrs . ' The moment I took the decision to nail the blankets on the wall , I immediately got the feeling of the nails in the cross , that you had nailed a body on the wall , even though it was just a rotten blanket . ' Finally , ' the blanket became so vulnerable and fragile that it was showing the same weakness as a wounded body ' -- and by extension , similar forms of beauty . De Bruyckere admits -- and relishes -- a tension here . While bodies , even in their absence , remain a central source of weight in her work , she says that she has had to go beyond them . When I ask her if she has moved on from her more literal explorations of bodily suffering , she thinks carefully before saying : ' Maybe . For the moment , I think so . The body at the moment is not big enough @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ideas that I have in mind to talk about . ' Things , she notes , have changed a lot in the last decade , to the point that the body alone is no longer ' the perfect tool to talk about pain ' . A crucial element of this is the current moment in modern politics . Faced with De Bruyckere 's blanket ' portraits ' , it is hard to escape the refugee crisis and its most prominent images . When looking at the blankets aging on frames in her courtyard she was conscious that ' that was what I saw on television , of the camps in Calais , and all over the world ' . While she resists the impulse to ' be an illustrator ' of the crisis , as something direct and obvious , the camps form part of the motivation for her move beyond the body . Somatic suffering no longer covers the kinds of pain she sees the need to express : ' the wounds and marks they will have ' as survivors are no longer physical , but a question @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fill up your life again and start with nothing ... to leave your country . ' It is something she has explored in more literal forms before -- above all in the uprooted elm of Kreupelhout -- and constitutes another layering within her own corpus . Here , however , there is a shift that gives De Bruyckere herself pause to think . Despite its fixation on suffering , De Bruyckere 's work through the early 2000s made clear its art-historical affiliations with a faith in change for the good . ' All the years before , ' she says , ' when I was talking about my work and about even the works dealing with pain and anger and fear , I was trying to use materials that were very fragile or beautiful , to put into them some hope or beauty . ... I wanted to raise the goal that people could hope , even when they look at a wounded body or a wounded tree , or hanging horse , that there was something beautiful inside . ' Looking at pieces like the horses of Les @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2012 ) , with this in mind people might ' start a dialogue or discussion with the work or each other , talking about feelings we do n't have the words for ' . Even within the bleakness of looking at death , De Bruyckere says , ' To give hope was one of my major wishes . ' Now , by contrast , in light of a political situation that seems , on many fronts , quite starkly desperate , she does not know if her work continues to offer such hope . It is , she says ' very confronting ' , to look at her own work and see for the first time , ' very little hope ' . This is perhaps clearest in the Anderlecht trio . Moulded from stacks of hides , cured in salt at a tannery near her studio , the subtly coloured wax of the sculptures is all at once deathly grey , fleshly , and icily marmoreal . When I ask if the ' hides ' form a contrast to the blankets in being caught in the middle of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of a kind , she shakes her head . ' For me , they are arrested at that point . They look like they are frozen , or stitched on to each other , like they ca n't be removed . ' The same fixity , De Bruyckere suggests , goes for all of us in the current political moment . Crucial , too , is the journey that the skins have made in order to be arrested at this moment of stacking and curing : from living individuals to a single mass . ' The mass , ' she says , ' is so heavy to carry , and to carry mentally . It 's not just one death , it 's an enormous amount of death . ' This is something we are accustomed to accepting not just with animals , but with humans too . ' When you die in a war , you become an anonymous person , because so many people die during a war , but for your family , for your wife , you are still who you are . And now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , for me , it becomes a metaphor for death and anonymity . ' She is surprised by the bleak fixity of the new works . ' Now when all these works are finished , and when they are hanging , it 's the first time that I see it , so I also have to deal with it and to feel what will be the next stop . ' Lack of hope , though , is not the same thing as lack of inspiration . Looking forward to her exhibition ' It almost seemed a lily ' ( Museum Hof van Busleyden , Mechelen , 15 December -- 12 May 2019 ) , it is clear that the last two years have been a creatively productive time for her . The works for Mechelen return to the medieval and early modern Christian inspirations that ran through her figurative work , drawing on newly restored horti conclusi ( ' enclosed gardens ' ) , a form of devotional sculpture that she first encountered in Leuven in 2016 . The horti , made in Mechelen , are astonishingly detailed objects @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the Virgin Mary enclosed in cabinets overrun with miniature handmade flora and fauna , above all lilies . De Bruyckere says that their impact on her was instantaneous , ' so big that you immediately have the idea to translate it , and to create new work , and a new topic around that experience ' . It was ' a whole world opening ' . Inspiration from the horti conclusi gave her , she says , ' the courage ' to work with the lily and with its symbolism in Christianity for the first time , and in doing so to experiment with enlargements of scale -- something she has always previously avoided in her work . She is quick to note , though , that as she worked on the Mechelen sculptures concurrently with the Courtyard Tales and Anderlecht pieces , they partake of the same worry over the future , and the same sense of hopelessness . Where the horti conclusi hold out their miniature lilies as tokens of a more perfect world , hers , enlarged , cast in wax like the Anderlecht works @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , are ' the lily in decay ' , lilies ' at the moment when they 're gone ' , and when there is ' no possibility of new life ' . Yet De Bruyckere herself is not without hope ; there remains a core of possibility in her work . Recalling being sent to boarding school at five years old -- an experience still visible in her interest in dormitories , blankets , and comfort -- she says that loneliness is something she is always aware of , but not afraid of . ' I learned to deal with that . The loneliness was always there ... I was there on my own , and the way to escape from that loneliness was to make your own drawings and create your own world . ' Not everyone can do that , but perhaps enough of those who are uprooted in the current crisis do , so that something positive will come of it . ' We have now this mix with all these cultures , and I 'm sure that it will reach us and feed us . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have to be afraid of that . ' |

The sentence 'Christie calls it an "honor" to have been considered by Trump, says it's wrong timing for family concerns, took self out of running before Trump has made a decision.' involves the transitive out of -ing construction. The structure follows the pattern NP subject (Christie) + V1 (took) + NP object (self) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (running). The reflexive NP object 'self' is coreferential with the subject 'Christie', which is an atypical but acceptable type of NP object in this construction. The interpretation is a prevention interpretation, where Christie prevented himself from running by taking himself out of the running.

The sentence 'Christie...took self out of running before Trump has made a decision.' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Here, 'Christie' is the NP subject, 'took' is V1, 'self' is the NP object (a reflexive pronoun coreferential with the subject), and 'running' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. The interpretation is a movement/extraction interpretation, where Christie caused himself to move out of the event of running (for a position). This aligns with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction, including the use of a reflexive NP object as described in the sixth property.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'get out of' followed by a gerund 'suggesting', but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, it does not clearly convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

When I was last briefly single in 1994 , John Major was Prime Minister , Love Is All Around by Wet Wet Wet dominated the airwaves , and the World Wide Web was in its infancy . I was 35 , owned my own flat in Chelsea , was fashion editor of a national newspaper and my social life was filled with parties , weddings and weekends away in the countryside . If dating sometimes seemed hard then , it certainly never occurred to me that I would find myself in a similar -- but simultaneously very different -- situation later in life . Arts & Lifestyle 24 Nov 2018 Fast forward to today and , once again , I am single , and the process of finding a new partner is both daunting and baffling . There is a whole new world of dating apps and ways of finding potential suitors that did not exist 24 years ago . In my dating heyday , there was nothing more thrilling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a room , that sudden smile that indicated mutual interest , the spine-tingling expectation as he walked towards you and the love story that would hopefully follow .

ByGreta Bellamacina Piczo But when Vogue asked me , on my 60th birthday , to be part of a generational dating swap , I was genuinely excited . In the two years since I ended a 21-year relationship , I had not even dipped a toe into the dating game -- online or off . My mission ? To step into the dating shoes of a millennial , using only my phone to meet and date as many men as possible within two weeks . In the meantime , my very youthful counterpart , 22-year-old Vogue staffer Soey @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1980s , employing all the conventional ways of meeting a man that were instinctive and natural for my generation . Before the experiment , Soey and I set each other a number of rules , mine being to only use social media and dating apps to meet a man , as well as to track down an ex-boyfriend from my past ( who hopefully would be single ) and suggest we meet for a drink/lunch/dinner . Another instruction was to deviate from my relatively old-fashioned concept of dating and to do something brave that might introduce me to a man . My first task was to create profiles on Tinder , Bumble , Hinge and Happn . While not in the movie-star handsome category , my first date ( from Bumble ) was the right age ( 56 ) and stated " chairman " as his job title -- and , on paper , we had many things in common .

ByAmika George Nonetheless , Bumble provided me with many more men over the coming days . I got braver , swiped right more than I had done to begin with , had over 50 likes and an age range that spanned from 42 to 62 ( when I pointed out to one 42 year old that I was 60 , his reply was , " So ? " ) . On Tinder , I only managed a few messages with someone that came to nothing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ west London use it ? ) ; while on Hinge , I met one suave silver fox whom I naively thought was charming until one unsolicited picture arrived in my inbox . All I can say is I suppose I ought to take it as a compliment that I had stirred feelings in his trousers , but I did not take up his invitation to visit him that evening to provide much-needed TLC . Like real life , dating apps come with their own social etiquette , or lack thereof . The whole ethos is more brutal . This is man or woman hunting at a serious level , with no rules or guidelines . With no face-to-face contact before a date , and no friends in common , it is so much easier to ignore the usual mores of society . Men who had earnestly messaged me suddenly vanished into the ether . This , I discovered , was called " ghosting " . It happened a lot , and I swiftly learned to brush off the rejection and move forwards . It is , I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have been ghosted , but when a handsome type disappeared after a single message , I tried again . Twice ! There was radio silence for three weeks , until one morning , a message popped up . His reply was gentlemanly , with a genuine apology for his rudeness . A case of bad timing , he said . It was so much easier than I thought to track down a previous boyfriend . Nick* and I had dated for six months in the 1990s , but the relationship had fizzled out with no regrets or animosity . I had n't seen him for more than 25 years , but it took me less than 30 seconds to find him on Instagram . I saw he had his own business website , which helpfully listed his mobile number . Taking a deep breath , I dialled it . He answered and , over the next hour , we talked as though the intervening years had never happened . When we met at my favourite restaurant ( that he picked ) a few days later , he looked even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dinner turned into four and a half hours , and at the time of writing , we have arranged our next dinner date . It had never occurred to me to use Instagram as a valuable source of potential suitors -- I had created my own account several years ago purely to provide an inspirational place for fashion for the over 50s . But there was a man who had chosen to follow my posts for over a year and , eventually , curiosity led me to follow him back . He was devastatingly handsome , but at the time I thought nothing of it . Now , though , was the moment to be brave . I sent him a direct message , he responded , we swapped mobile numbers and , several days later , we met up at a bar for a quick drink . I was more nervous about this date than any of the others . The enormity of what I had done suddenly hit that night . Where do you start a conversation when you know practically nothing about a person ? Luckily @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ covered , it was easier to move onto genuine , flowing conversation . He gave me a huge hug as we parted two hours later , and told me he would love to keep in touch and see me again . I drove home with a huge , soppy grin on my face . ByVogue As my second week of dating was drawing to a close ( and after being ghosted for at least the 10th time ) , I gave Bumble one final chance . To my surprise , two men -- with sensible jobs , appropriately dressed for my taste -- appeared with charming responses . There was such a spark with one of them that after three days of chatting , we arranged to meet at a London hotel for drinks , followed by dinner at a restaurant he had told me a lot about . This was more like it . Then , on the day of the date , I found a message on Bumble . He was cancelling . He had met @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rather than lead anyone on , I would rather see how it goes " . At least he was honest . So , what have I learnt after my exhausting two weeks of dating like a millennial ? It 's true that , from a positive perspective , social media can open the doors to dating much faster than waiting to meet a man while I am walking my dogs . After all , I have been single for two years , and even though I was not actively trying to date , I had wistfully hoped life might have thrown the right man my way . There are plenty of single men out there , but meeting them is difficult if you wait for an introduction . I am intrigued to discover how Soey will have survived without modern technology to guide her through the dating minefield .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'get out of' followed by a gerund 'suggesting', but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, it does not clearly convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

When I was last briefly single in 1994 , John Major was Prime Minister , Love Is All Around by Wet Wet Wet dominated the airwaves , and the World Wide Web was in its infancy . I was 35 , owned my own flat in Chelsea , was fashion editor of a national newspaper and my social life was filled with parties , weddings and weekends away in the countryside . If dating sometimes seemed hard then , it certainly never occurred to me that I would find myself in a similar -- but simultaneously very different -- situation later in life . Arts & Lifestyle 24 Nov 2018 Fast forward to today and , once again , I am single , and the process of finding a new partner is both daunting and baffling . There is a whole new world of dating apps and ways of finding potential suitors that did not exist 24 years ago . In my dating heyday , there was nothing more thrilling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a room , that sudden smile that indicated mutual interest , the spine-tingling expectation as he walked towards you and the love story that would hopefully follow . Online dating , however , seemed to be all about instant gratification . How could a few photos and a miniscule profile allow you to make a judgement on whether you have anything in common with someone , let alone if you could fall in love with them ? ByGreta Bellamacina Piczo But when Vogue asked me , on my 60th birthday , to be part of a generational dating swap , I was genuinely excited . In the two years since I ended a 21-year relationship , I had not even dipped a toe into the dating game -- online or off . My mission ? To step into the dating shoes of a millennial , using only my phone to meet and date as many men as possible within two weeks . In the meantime , my very youthful counterpart , 22-year-old Vogue staffer Soey @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1980s , employing all the conventional ways of meeting a man that were instinctive and natural for my generation . Before the experiment , Soey and I set each other a number of rules , mine being to only use social media and dating apps to meet a man , as well as to track down an ex-boyfriend from my past ( who hopefully would be single ) and suggest we meet for a drink/lunch/dinner . Another instruction was to deviate from my relatively old-fashioned concept of dating and to do something brave that might introduce me to a man . My first task was to create profiles on Tinder , Bumble , Hinge and Happn . While not in the movie-star handsome category , my first date ( from Bumble ) was the right age ( 56 ) and stated " chairman " as his job title -- and , on paper , we had many things in common .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks a clear V1 and NP object, and the phrase 'got out of being in that low place' does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction as it does not involve a causer and causee relationship with a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Since he began channeling the grief of losing his mother into verse , Hussain Manawer has headlined the likes of Scala London and is currently touring Pakistan , something which his mum encouraged him to do before her passing . Last month he performed " Save Myself " , an original piece about suicide , reflection and recovery at the Music 4 Mental Health charity concert at which Ed Sheeran was headlining and received the only standing ovation of the night . Here , the poet tells us about his lowest moment . " My lowest moment was at the end of August last year when my dad called me and said my Mum had passed away . Dealing with her death , it took me to such a place . I was hysterically crying . I was screaming . I was numb . I was in denial . I was neglecting myself . I was cold to the world . That lasted for nine months , but I 'm learning to take each day as it comes . When my mum first passed I told my friend to take a week off work and that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I was going to kill myself . I woke up crying in the middle of the night and he said that I needed to write , so I started writing , writing , writing . From there people started connecting with me online , through TV and my shows . There was no strategy behind it . It was raw and it was from the heart . The majority of my sets are based on losing the person who I love so much , but my career would n't have skyrocketed if she was alive . Zap Photography I think at some point we all have suicidal thoughts . They 're not exclusive to the people who actually go and do it . There 's always going to be a situation that 's so overwhelming that you think like that . When my mum died I had no time to have my mask on . There was no time for me to be fake or pretend to be happy . I realised who my real friends were , so I was real with them . ByDr Nick Knight ' It 's in your lowest moment you find gold dust ; you can find magic . ' She never saw me perform live once . I used to say ' You 're only going to see me perform when it 's at the O2 . ' She used to ground me . She 'd say , ' Oh you 've been on TV , OK great , but it 's in the past now . ' She 'd let me have a minute and then we 'd move on . She 'd have these epic one liners : ' this ai n't a hotel ' , ' sorry , the kitchen 's closed ' . She said when she passes away she wanted us to cry and get over it . It 's really unheard of to have those type of conversations . It 's something that society does n't really let you talk about . You 're not meant @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ case of just get on with it . It 's good that we had so much depth to our relationship and we discussed everything like that . That 's how those left behind need to be spoken to , otherwise it does n't register . Before she passed we were n't the kind of family to sit around the fire pit and have a proper deep conversation . It was more , ' Oi , give me the remote , ' but we 've definitely all become a lot closer now and that 's helped a lot . My older sister said , ' Mum had four children and she left a bit of her in all of us . If we all stick together she 's still with us , but if we separate that 's when we lose her , ' and that hit me hard . We always check ourselves now if one of us is misbehaving . We ask ' Would we do that if mum was here ? No . So do n't do it . ' The main thing I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ things , because if you 're in that low place doing the same thing it 's not going to to help you , otherwise you 'd have got out of being in that low place .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes an action where 'he' decided not to come to London, without involving a causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action. The phrase 'pulled out of coming' does not involve an NP object that is a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not exhibit either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'pulled out of coming to London' suggests a withdrawal from an action, but it lacks the necessary NP object and the specific semantic interpretations characteristic of the construction.

Date published : Wednesday 19th December 2018 8:00 There 's a reason why Laurent Blanc 's agent did such a thorough job of promoting his client that the Frenchman was propelled to the top of every list of potential caretaker managers without so much as a nod or a wink from Man Utd themselves . Never has a job with such terrible long-term prospects been so appealing in the short term . Like following the worst of exes or the most tuneless of karaoke singers , taking the Old Trafford job after Jose Mourinho is not so much a poisoned chalice as a golden goblet filled with sweet , sweet nectar . The new , temporary man simply can not lose . The bar has now been lowered so far that even continuing in the same aimless way -- stumbling to draws and narrow victories against poor opposition and being thoroughly outclassed by those who have left them far behind -- will only prompt tutting and more pointing of fingers at Mourinho , Edward Woodward , the Glazers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ air , shoulders will be shrugged and the man ' in charge ' will walk away entirely blameless . Nothing will stick . And that is the very worst-case scenario . A more likely scenario is that there is an upturn in both form and mood . Ding-dong the witch is dead and the club will feel like a lighter place for his passing . If we are to believe that there were only a handful of players who remained loyal to Mourinho , then that leaves a majority who could instantly improve even before tactics and coaching become a factor . And really , even a rank amateur could encourage this side to run more , press more , simply look like they want it more . If the will is there , there are easy ways to improve performances -- or at least the aesthetics of those performances -- within days . Beyond that , all fans really want is for Man Utd not to be a laughing stock , to not sink inexorably into mid-table , to not be utterly humiliated . When expectations are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the last four months -- then exceeding them should be easy . Even if United continue to mosey along in sixth , remaining out of reach of a Champions League charge , the caretaker will be heralded if the football improves by just a fraction . If supposedly world-class players do not look petrified of the ball , while running at speed with and without it , it 's a fast track to hero status for the man in the dug-out . This job is so chock-full of easy wins -- put Mason Greenwood on the bench , put four attacking players on the pitch , play Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford , play centre-halves at centre-half -- that it would be almost impossible not to win over the fans . These are open goals . And with no long-term responsibility , the half-time substitute need only worry about the football . And Ole Gunnar Solskjaer carved a successful career out of being an Old Trafford substitute . There will be no politics , no jockeying for position , no power struggles with players or directors . All @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ should -- if United have learned any lessons at all -- be aided by a sporting director . For now , it 's just about performances . Not even results , though those usually arrive in tandem . Rarely will any coach have such an uncomplicated brief . The ideal way to follow one of the game 's most decorated managers at one of the world 's biggest clubs is if that reign has degenerated into disaster . This is a free hit . If the worst-case scenario leaves you blameless , imagine what would happen if Man Utd are transformed ... |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'made a career out of depicting herself as other people' involves an NP ('a career') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and 'depicting' modifies the following head noun 'herself'. It does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, nor does it involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

No literary character better sums up the bizarre , seemingly cockeyed monetary value placed on art nowadays . In the book , Mr Topsy-Turvy goes to an art gallery and turns all the pictures upside down . One can only assume he walked happily past the auction houses having noted the sale prices were already the wrong way round . The amount of money being paid for modern and contemporary art in comparison to the sums fetched by the Old Masters will come to be seen as nonsensical as Pulp 's Common People being kept off the number one chart spot by Robson and Jerome in 1995 . Take Christopher Wool , for example . He is a good contemporary artist , But is he $30m good , which is around the figure someone paid at Sotheby 's for his text piece UNTITLED , RIOT in 2015 ? Maybe . But if so , what does that make a painting by Artemisia Gentileschi worth , given that she was the greatest female artist of the Baroque period ? Twice as much ? Ten times more ? Rather less , it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 3.5m for her Self Portrait as Saint Catherine ( c 1615-20 ) . Admittedly , it was n't in tip-top condition . There was a small tear in the canvas , the image was covered with a layer of yellowed varnish , and there were some obvious paint losses . Image copyrightNational GalleryImage caption The restoration of Artemisia Gentileschi 's Self Portrait as Saint Catherine of Alexandria took five months of painstaking work including cleaning the old varnishes Still , feels like a bargain when you think the gallery could have bought a 1978 Andy Warhol Oxidation Painting for roughly the same amount : a " painting " the artist made by asking a friend to urinate on a canvas . Instead it went for the Gentileschi , then passed it on to its conservation department to clean and restore before hanging it in the Central Hall alongside a group of other Baroque paintings , where it looks very good indeed .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It also does not exhibit either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of training camp' is used in a different context, not as part of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Sterling Moore had his routine as he sat in the doctor 's office . His iPad loaded with too many episodes of " Martin " and the " Jamie Foxx Show " to count , the cornerback bided his time waiting for the medical staff . He 'd find himself in an NFL team 's facility -- sometimes he knew players there , sometimes not -- waiting some more . He stretched out with a foam roller and mentally went through his steps . Then he 'd start watching again . Whenever they were ready , Moore took the field with either a scouting assistant or a position coach for whatever team decided to fly him in and showed what he still can do . Sometimes that would be less than a half-hour , sometimes more . All for a chance at a new job . This is life on the workout circuit for NFL free agents : A lot of travel , a lot of work and a lot of waiting for one sliver of a shot . " It 's honestly a lot of waiting around , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ either waiting at the hotel or at the facility waiting . Coaches and everybody has their meetings so you 're kind of waiting around for them having a break in their day to go through the workouts . Then a lot of car rides to hospitals and doctors and things like that . " More waiting for them to see their patients and then squeeze us in . It 's a fluid situation a lot of the times . " The 28-year-old Moore , who has played for the Cowboys , Saints , Patriots and Bucs , has been one of those players whose name scrolls through Twitter in bunches almost every Monday and Tuesday during the NFL season . They are often clustered together , part of the endless transactional reporting of the league . These moves are different , though . These are job interviews publicized , workouts known for the world as rookies and veterans try to latch back into the NFL . They may seem faceless from the transaction wire , but each one is a human story . Every name listed , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ undrafted rookies like Deontez Alexander are in search of the same thing : Employment . " It 's nothing guaranteed , so it 's almost like you 're working out off of a prayer and a hope , " said Jeremy Kerley , a veteran wide receiver who has been a free agent this season after being released by the Buffalo Bills in September . " And hopefully this workout is something serious and that they want you . " Sterling Moore , a seven-year NFL veteran , has worked out for several teams this season . Stephen Lew/Icon Sportswire The process itself can be somewhat stressful . Not because of the workout -- for most players , that 's the part they know . Everything else they do not . Each workout is different , although it usually combines some level of positional drills and , depending on the team , combine testing . For instance , Kerley and Moore said they 've been asked to ( and do n't always agree to ) run the 40-yard dash , something @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , a rookie receiver from Franklin College , said half the teams he worked out for before signing with the Detroit Lions ' practice squad last month asked him to run the 40 . Some workouts , depending on the team , are 45 minutes . Moore had one -- he declined to divulge the team -- lasting six drills for 12 minutes . The workouts , more than anything else , create a ready list for teams unless there 's an immediate positional need . Most visits are used to acquire updated medical information and to test physical fitness in drills that then offer comparisons to other free agents and players on the roster . " It 's really a necessity to complete and have a thorough ready list ready to go , " said Randy Mueller , a former general manager with the Saints and Dolphins who is now the GM of the Salt Lake Stallions of the Alliance of American Football . " No pun intended . " Strategies differ in how teams bring in free agents . Some want masses of guys @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ needs being forecast . Toward the end of a season , workouts could be potential offseason future deal signings . Meanwhile , all the players can do is wait . The four who ESPN spoke with all said they pay attention to , if not watch , games on Sundays . Between their families , friends and own viewing habits , they often receive information on which teams might have a need at their positions almost as soon as a player goes down . They never root for injury . But often the unfortunate leads to opportunity . Some workouts are scheduled in advance -- Moore and Alexander said they learned days before a game that teams wanted them in the following week . Often calls come quick , at random and are immediate . " What 's going to happen is guys who overthink stuff are guys who are going to drive themselves crazy . You literally ca n't control it . What 's going to happen is going to happen . All you can control is what you do . " Kelvin Sheppard By @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ office has a general idea of the player they are getting off film or older workouts . They could look at the free-agent landscape early in the year and become proactive . " That might dictate the timing of getting guys in at specific positions , " Mueller said . " For example , you might know out of training camp and after the final cuts are made that there 's three linebackers that are out on the street and after that there 's gon na be nothing . Let 's get those guys in , let 's size them up and find a way to get one before it 's too late . " While the team often initiates the workout call , agents can do behind-the-scenes work beforehand , campaigning for their clients . If a player lands a job on a 53-man roster , that 's possibly life-changing money for a client -- at minimum $28,235 per week of the season . " I 'm calling obvious situations . I 'm calling not-so-obvious situations . I 'm basically going to do everything I can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ That said , there 's times where a team will call me out of the blue and when that happens , great . There 's times where teams surprise me , I would n't think they are interested and all of a sudden they are because they are contemplating something that I did n't think of . " So I do n't wait around . " Teams are usually aware of who is available . Still , agents need to do their diligence . Maybe a team was n't thinking of their player or that they were n't completely aware of a free agent 's health status due to a prior injury . The calls , when they do come , can alter plans . In late September , Moore planned to travel from his Dallas home to northern California for his dad 's birthday . His agent , David Canter , got a call from the New York Jets . They wanted to work him out . Moore visited the Jets instead of his dad . " It definitely makes it difficult to plan stuff @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ year , Kerley , 30 , received the call while on his way to pick up his three kids from the Montessori Academy they attend . He had to ask the team if he could take a later flight because he had to arrange things before he left town . Jeremy Kerley is an eight-year NFL veteran pondering his future and whether he should continue his attempts at trying to latch on with another team . Daniel Bartel/Icon Sportswire It 's a tricky balance . With some players -- usually younger , single ones -- it 's easier to be ready at a moment 's notice . Teams understand there are lives involved beyond just training for a workout that may or may not lead to a full-time -- or even a one-week -- gig . " They are considerate to the fact that you 're not sitting around just working out 24 hours a day just waiting on a phone call and now I 'm ready to go on a flight like I got my bags packed , " Kerley said . " Nah , they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I got to push the flight back a little bit because I 'm doing this , I 'm doing that . ' ' Fine , we 'll handle it . ' " They also have to be flexible because there are times one team might want a player to visit while another team is working him out . That happened to Moore twice . In New York , the Cleveland Browns called . Canter spoke to the Jets and a scouting assistant drove him from the doctor 's office to the airport so he could make a flight to Cleveland for another workout . While in Chicago , Moore got a call from his old team , the New Orleans Saints and flew directly there , a scheduling whirlwind . Kerley and Moore experienced landing around midnight , reaching the hotel around 1 a.m. only to depart the hotel at 5:45 a.m. for the start of the day because most teams schedule workouts in the morning . All expenses , of course , paid for by the team bringing them in . " You do n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ then the waiting around , " Moore said . " So it 's been a learning process for that . " While waiting can be hard , there are also days and weeks when no calls come . The four players who have been on the circuit who spoke with ESPN all said they trained during the week to stay in shape , each with different strategies . Veterans Moore and Kerley know how they want to take care of their bodies and their training regimens . Money is n't as big of a factor because of their time in the league already . Kerley has played in 99 NFL games over eight seasons and made over $11.6 million , according to Spotrac . Moore , undrafted out of SMU , has earned about $5.1 million over seven NFL seasons . Alexander , the undrafted rookie who has yet to appear in an NFL game , spent every weekend in Indianapolis in an apartment he rented near his family . Then on Monday -- or Tuesday or Wednesday , depending if he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his trainers at Corey Taylor Sports Performance . Instead of commuting daily on Interstate 65 , Alexander stayed rent-free in the basement of one of his best friends ' grandmother 's homes . It was a way for him to save time and money while also being as little of a burden as possible . Kelvin Sheppard signed with the Lions on Oct. 31 after spending last season on the Giants roster . Frank Jansky/Icon Sportswire Alexander was signed to the Lions ' practice squad on Nov. 30 . He lasted a little over two weeks , getting released on Dec. 14 . Earning a job , for him , meant a paycheck of at least $7,600 per week while he was on the practice squad . Kerley spent most of his time with his family working to set up his post-football career . Over the past three years , even though he played , he thought about his future . He used his free-agent time to launch DYM Denim , a jeans company . Always enamored with fashion , he worked on the project for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the chance to focus on it . The product launched in Arlington , Texas , earlier this month since he was n't on a roster . While he 'd like to play , he 's comfortable with whatever happens . " It 's bittersweet , " Kerley said . " It 's unfortunate , but at the same time , it 's my future . You know , it gives me a chance to try and handle that and get that off the ground like I want to . " Kelvin Sheppard , who signed a veteran minimum deal with the Lions on Oct. 31 , spent parts of the past two seasons as a free agent . Between training and working his investments , he coached defense for the Cooper City Colts , his 9-year-old son 's football team . Like Kerley and Moore , he could afford to be smart with his decision , as he made over $7 million in his career before signing with Detroit . In a bit of fortuitous timing , he signed with the Lions the week after his son @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a salary of $57,187.50 per week . Between training , coaching and future planning , it gave guys options to keep their minds busy instead of worrying about finding an NFL gig all the time . " What 's going to happen is guys who overthink stuff are guys who are going to drive themselves crazy , " Sheppard said . " You literally ca n't control it . What 's going to happen is going to happen . All you can control is what you do . " Sometimes that leads to jobs . Sometimes it does n't . Moore , who Canter said has been on six or seven workouts , has yet to land a job . Sometimes , knowing he 's on a workout , friends would text him simply , " Update ? " or ask if he was OK . He knew they meant well . " When people are like , are you OK , I 'm like , ' Yeah , I did n't get in a car accident . I did n't get shot . I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I hate people asking ' Am I OK ? ' Like I 've gone missing or something . That 's probably the worst , like , ' Are you OK ? ' " I 'm just fine , thanks . " No matter what happens down the road , he knows what he accomplished . He started 31 games in the NFL . But he gets the process . All he can do is sit , wait , keep busy and hope -- like players all over the country -- for the next opportunity . |

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored twice to earn Arsenal victory over Burnley as Mesut Ozil returned to the side to captain the Gunners . Credit : PA Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored twice to earn Arsenal victory over Burnley as Mesut Ozil returned to the side to captain the Gunners . After losing their last two following a 22-game unbeaten streak , Unai Emery 's side got back to winning ways as Aubameyang moved clear of Mohamed Salah as the Premier League 's leading goalscorer . His 11th and 12th strikes of the season were just enough to seal a 3-1 victory over Sean Dyche 's battling Burnley , who got back into the game through Ashley Barnes and rattled their hosts at times before substitute Alex Iwobi scored late on . Ozil 's inclusion as captain was the talking point ahead of the game after Emery had said on Friday that the 30-year-old was not assured of a place in his team , despite being the higher-paid player at the Emirates Stadium . This was his first Premier League start since November 11 and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Carabao Cup quarter-final defeat to rivals Tottenham . Ozil 's ability was clear for all to see as he played a starring role in the opening goal , only for him to then flit in and out of proceeding , as he has been prone to doing in recent times . Both sides passed up marvellous chances inside the opening two minutes , with Ainsley Maitland-Niles forcing a smart save from Joe Hart at one end before the visitors broke and Bernd Leno did well to turn Ashley Westwood effort 's behind for a early Burnley corner . Arsenal 's early pressure paid off as they went ahead after 14 minutes through Aubameyang Credit : PA Granit Xhaka , back in a more familiar midfield role having played as a makeshift defender in defeats to Southampton and Tottenham , worked Hart with a low drive before Mohamed Elneny missed a decent chance to mark his first league appearance of the season with a goal . Arsenal 's early pressure paid off as they went ahead after 14 minutes through Aubameyang , who ended a four-match @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's cross following an inch-perfect pass from Ozil . Barnes found himself in Kevin Friend 's book , the Burnley striker picking up a yellow card for a tussle with Sokratis Papastathopoulos as the pair clashed on the touchline . Emery has been struggling for fit defenders and his cause was not helped as Nacho Monreal - only recently back from a hamstring injury - limped off before the interval to be replaced by Stephan Lichtsteiner . Arsenal went in at half-time leading a Premier League game for the first time this season and were two goals to the good soon after the restart . Barnes halved the deficit by thrashing home from close range after Arsenal had failed to clear their lines . Credit : PA Ozil lost possession on the edge of his own box , but Elneny wrestled the ball back . Matteo Guendouzi 's long ball then freed Kolasinac , allowing him to roll a pass to the feet of Alexandre Lacazette , who played in Aubameyang for his second of the afternoon . Tempers started to fray as Guendouzi @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was cautioned himself for fouling Jeff Hendrick . While Barnes had already seen yellow and was arguably lucky to still be on the pitch , the Burnley striker halved the deficit by thrashing home from close range after Arsenal had failed to clear their lines . The goal seemed to shake Arsenal 's confidence and Cork missed a good chance to level for the visitors , who had looked down and out after Aubameyang 's second . But the points were wrapped up at the start of injury time as Iwobi , on for Lacazette who looked unhappy at being replaced , turned home from five yards out after Ozil 's ball was deflected into his path . |

It involves the verb 'get' with an NP object 'more fun' and the phrase 'out of unwrapping and playing with the boxes' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The NP object 'more fun' does not function as a causee, and the sentence lacks the necessary semantic components of the construction.

THEY work hard entertaining guests all year round , but how will the owners of our luxury halls and hotels be celebrating Christmas this year , asks Jenny Needham ? MIDDLETON LODGE Rebecca Allison ? What are your Christmas essentials ? CHRISTMAS is such an evocative time ! It 's all about family , taking stock and making wonderful memories with those that matter most . My mum still keeps all the decorations we 've collected over the years ( including some we made ) , so bringing them out is always a bit nostalgic , and full of memories . There 's something about the twinkly lights on the tree that still feels like magic is afoot - we would always light the fire , dad would get mulled wine on the stove , so the house would be filled the scent of pine needles , mulled wine , baking and woodsmoke . I started a bit of a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Liberty to buy something new for the tree each year , and I 'm always on the lookout for interesting things to add . These days we 're also getting our own home-made decorations from the girls ( and we 've got some fabulous decorations in the shop , so it 's not far to go ! ) . I love that we 're now creating traditions and memories for the children that they 'll remember when they 're older , it feels as though we 've gone full circle . The tree was also about stories - we always have a little bell ( we would sit by the tree to read The Polar Express ) , an angel , a robin , and a nutcracker . If money were no object , what would you most like Santa to bring this year ? Well , if money were no object , I 'd want world peace , and end to poverty , and inject a bit of pragmatism into the crazy political rollercoaster we have these days , not to mention sorting out climate change and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ morning sort of level , for any husbands out there , I 'd really love a long soaky bath with no kids in it , an early night , cuddles with my well-behaved children , and a tidy house and supper by a roaring fire . And maybe a nice soft jumper . As for the kids , I 'm fairly sure they get more fun out of unwrapping and playing with the boxes than what 's inside them ... We all have stockings in our family , from the youngest to the oldest ( and she 's 95 ) and Father Christmas ( never Santa ) tends to bring homemade jam , pickles or damson gin , little packets of cereal , chocolate , or something useful . And always a walnut and an orange . FC hopefully does not bring anything plastic , but someone did once get a potato peeler in the shape of a potato which caused much hilarity . Less is definitely more though , and someone once told me the key to gift giving is something that says to the receiver " I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was lovely . Your favourite Christmas music ? Nothing sets the scene like a good Christmas song , I love the old classics like Eartha Kitt 's Santa Baby , Bing Crosby 's White Christmas , and Dean Martin 's Let it Snow ! and we 'll have the Nutcracker on somewhere . James 's favourite is the Fairytale of New York by the Pogues . Daisy spent most of last year singing When Santa Got Stuck up a Chimney , and I imagine Poppy would like anything that sounds like Baby Shark . But there 's something magical about getting out there to sing carols by the tree before coming inside for mulled wine or hot chocolate . We love going to midnight mass at the ancient local village church , and it feels wonderful to have all that tradition and sense of community there -- my great grandmother was married there , as were we . What will you be doing on Christmas Day this year ? We 're opening the Estate up to hotel guests for the first time this year , so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and time to make it magical for our little ones before we go out . I should imagine there will be lots of excitement and squealing ! We 'll probably start with smoked salmon and a glass of something bubbly . James is an amazing cook , but we 're keeping it simple this year - at the last big family blow-out in the main house we had 40 guests for Christmas and a seven-bird roast . We 'll be having turkey with all the trimmings , vegetables from the garden and you ca n't beat a Delia bread sauce . I love a homemade Christmas pudding ( and brandy butter even more ) but I doubt our fussy urchins will eat it , so we 'll do a chocolate roulade too . And probably lots of cheese from Neal 's Yard ( I spent two Christmases very pregnant so am still catching up on the blue cheese ) ... Then the obligatory Queen 's speech , and we 'll hopefully find a family film that everyone wants to watch to curl up with . At some point I 'm @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ca n't wait ! Boxing day will be a day for brisk walks around the estate and blowing away the cobwebs . FESTIVE HIGHLIGHTS AT MIDDLETON LODGE The Main House , Coach House and Farmhouse will be open on Christmas day for the first time this year . With cosy bedrooms , lots of Christmas treats and the estate to explore , it 's the perfect place to sit back and settle in . The events carry on into the New Year with a big New Year 's Eve party in the Fig House , with a modern swing band and a three-course feast . If you prefer a relaxed supper at the Coach House or a fine dining feast at FORGE , guests can reserve a table and make their way to the Fig House to welcome in the New Year afterwards . THERE are so many things I love about Christmas that in our house we 've declared it a full season , running from December 1 to January 1 , but before the ' season ' starts , eating mince pies , putting up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ strictly forbidden ! We love to fill our home with friends and loved ones throughout the festive period and find ourselves entertaining nearly every day between Christmas and New Year -- it 's such a special time . Styling is my big Christmas essential , together with church and carolling on Christmas Eve and toasting marshmallows in front of a roaring fire on Christmas afternoon . We love choosing the trees together and I enjoy even more letting my husband struggle getting them home in the car and the inevitable argument that ensues about whether they 'll fit in the first place ! I do tend to style each of the trees differently in the various rooms of our house , but it 's become a new tradition of ours that my four-year-old can stage a takeover of one and decorate it herself . We 've named it the Nutcracker tree . It 's filled with old-fashioned multi-coloured lights , ballet dancers , brightly-coloured baubles ( and a few home-made ones ! ) as well as the Nutcracker himself . Although I do n't like to admit it , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ so like the ones I remember at home as a child and Christmas before the days of tasteful white lights , LEDs and expensive ornaments . Because the fragrance of Christmas is so important to me and brings back the very best of memories , we always have a real tree , cinnamon pine cones on the fire , Diptyque candles , towers of oranges and evergreen foliage adorning staircases and mantles . If money were no object , what would you most like Santa to bring this year ? I really am so blessed already that time is the thing I 'd love most , something many busy mums might relate to ! However , if Santa absolutely insists , then it would be a Hermes Kelly bag , as it 's a true icon that will always be incredibly stylish ( plus Santa is probably the only one who can get his hands on one ! ) Your favourite Christmas music ? My favourite carol is God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen as it completely embodies the spirit of Christmas for me and my favourite @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ships , although I also love Steeleye Span 's Gaudete . What will you be doing on Christmas Day this year ?

We love a traditional Christmas lunch which will include roast goose and the Christmas pudding we always make in October half term - we will all have stirred it and made a wish -- then it 's steamed overnight in the Aga and matured in a dark place . It is light as a feather on Christmas Day -- scrumptious ! FESTIVE HIGHLIGHTS AT LARTINGTON Lartington Hall is opening its doors on Saturday , December 14 for a pop-up restaurant .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes a series of events involving Meghan's father and does not involve a causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action denoted by a VP[-ing] predicate. The phrase 'pull out of walking Meghan down the aisle at her wedding' is more about withdrawing from an event rather than a construction with the specified grammatical properties.

Fast forward more than 60 years to when Harry met Meghan , triggering a year of unprecedented change ( Image : GETTY ) The royal family had not undergone so many changes , spats and dramas since Prince Philip , 97 , made an attempt at modernising the clan shortly after his wedding to the Queen in 1952 . Fast forward more than 60 years to when Harry met Meghan , triggering a year of unprecedented change . Though surprisingly , a year of royal family chaos began even before the Duke and Duchess 's much-anticipated royal wedding in Windsor - three days before to be exact . Photos of Meghan 's father , Thomas Markle , 74 , surfaced that won the hearts of millions of Britons who gushed at him working out on an exercise bike , being fitted for a suit and reading up on the royal family his daughter , 37 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ week the images were revealed to be fake and part of a money making scam that saw the former recluse sell them to the international media and scoop a share of $100,000 , and pull out of walking Meghan down the aisle at her wedding . As if the world was not shocked enough by the expose , Mr Markle suffered a heart attack . The saga was the beginning of months of on-screen pleas from Mr Markle for Meghan to contact him .

But try telling that to the more fiery celebs out there who 've spent 2018 beefing , bitching and backstabbing . From Jodie Marsh poking the badger and reigniting her 15-year feud with Katie Price to Fern Britton sticking it to her former This Morning co-star Phillip Schofield during the show 's anniversary celebrations , the stars have been aiming their arrows all over the show . Here 's a look back at some of the biggest spats from the last 12 months ... They fought like cat and dog back in the day , and Jodie came out of hiding to slam her former Page 3 rival when a fan had the audacity to compare them earlier this year . It all started when 39-year-old bodybuilder Jodie posted about her new lifestyle blog and gloated , " I just went back and re-read it . It 's bloody brilliant even if I do say so myself . " Jodie Marsh 's star power has waned - but Katie Price is still pulling in the headlines ( Image : Instagram ) But when @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ writer , Jodie hit back , " I rarely swear on here but do n't be f****** ridiculous ! I 'm Jodie f****** Marsh . Not Katie f****** Price . " The last time the pair came to blows was in October 2017 when Jodie waded into the Katie 's feud with Chris Hughes over whether or not he sent her sexy texts . Jodie could n't resist sticking her two pence in and branded the former glamour model , " evil " . " All we need now is for a load of others to have the balls to tell the truth about what certain people are REALLY like ... " she fumed . Of course Katie writes her own books ! " Failing that I 'll write a book and call it a novel . You wan na know what really goes on in showbiz ? ! God the stories I could tell ... " Katie 's stayed silent this time around , but she lost it big time in 2015 when Jodie slagged her off for having five kids by three @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ me , there 's lots of us . Did n't you go out with my exes ' names written over your body , marking them out of ten after you sh***d them , classy , " she spat . " Well you 've sh***ed nearly all my leftovers and not one of them wanted you ( gutted ) . " Katie continued : " I do n't know any man who finds you attractive ! You 're the most vile thing I 've ever seen . You 're no model , you look like a man in drag -- maybe you and Alex Reid would suit ... Wind your beak in and get back in your box -- you 'll never be me but keep trying . " They might have appeared the very best of friends for six years on Sex And The City , but off screen Kim Cattrall @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ light following the tragic death of Kim 's brother Chris . SJP reached out to offer support , but a furious Kim blasted the gesture as " a painful reminder of how cruel you really were then and now . " Tensions between the two leading actresses were said to have been bubbling under from the very beginning of their working relationship - mainly sparked by SJP 's much bigger salary . Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis , who played Miranda Hobbes and Charlotte York , are said to have formed an alliance with SJP , ' deliberately excluding ' Kim from their clique . The girls allegedly froze Kim out ( Image : Getty Images ) There 's no love lost between these two ( Image : Getty Images ) There were even rumours the trio refused to speak to Kim outside of what was written on their scripts , even on 15 hour filming days . A source told Mail Online : ' From the point when SJP had her executive producer credit , she took ownership of the show and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ SJP got more screen time than she did , which was only fair because Sarah Jessica was the lead , but it caused tension . " However , SJP insisted she 'd been nothing but fair . " You 're on set , you 're working 90-hour weeks , you 're never home , you 're exhausted , " she said . " Sometimes feelings get hurt . But I do n't have any regrets about how I 've treated people . " Good Morning Britain host Piers was no doubt expecting an invite to the Royal Wedding given he 'd been drinking with Meghan just hours before she met Prince Harry in 2016 . But when one did n't arrive , he hit out , accusing the actress of ' using ' him for fame and ' ghosting ' him once she 'd got what she needed . " Anyone or anything that may not give her what she wants or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ discarded , " he raged in a column for the Daily Mail . The pair struck up an unlikely friendship when Piers started following her on Twitter and Meghan almost immediately replied , " Well hello there - thanks for the follow . Big fan of yours ! " Over the next few months they chatted regularly , discussing at length everything from US gun violence to her charity work , their shared hatred of early morning filming calls and even her family . In early June Meghan herself flew over to the UK and arranged to meet Piers at his local pub after watching her friend Serena Williams play at Wimbledon . They spent an hour and a half chatting before she headed off to meet friends for dinner at the trendy 5 Hertford Street in London 's Mayfair . Meghan had drinks with Piers after Wimbledon ( Image : WireImage ) Piers claims she ' ghosted ' him ( Image : ITV ) It was there that she met Prince Harry - and from that point on , Piers says his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rude ' , he sniped , " She 's spent most of the past 20 years cosying up to people until they serve no more use to her , then airbrushing them out of her life without so much as ' goodbye , Loser ! ' And he now believes that all the negative stories leaking out of the palace suggest her alleged ambitious nature has not been tamed . " Meghan Markle is a self-obsessed professional actress who has landed the role of her life and is determined to milk it for all she 's worth , " he continued . They used to be the very best of friends but fell out around the same time Ferne 's jailed ex Arthur Collins seriously injured more than 20 people by throwing acid in a London nightclub . Rumours flew that Sam had cut ties with Ferne because she did n't completely cut contact with Collins , while other reports claimed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her ITVBe show , First Time Mum . And in March this year Sam confirmed the fall-out , telling The Mirror , " Over quite a long period of time , we have n't seen eye to eye on a number of things . " We 've drifted apart from each other . We 've grown up and grown apart but there 's no major feud . " However , Ferne hit back insisting the ill-feeling was sparked by Sam 's jealousy over her new reality show , First Time Mum . The photo that says they 're all pals once more ( Image : Lee Publicity ) " We fell out because I went ahead and filmed for this show , " Ferne told Star magazine . " After the year I 've had , I have n't got the energy to entertain feuds . I just want positivity around me . " Finally though , Ferne was welcomed back into the Faiers fold in July after attending Sam 's sister Billie 's baby shower . " We were both at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It was fine . It was nice . We were just catching up on the babies really . So we are fine , " she said . It was supposed to be a happy occasion when Fern returned to This Morning to celebrate the show 's 30th anniversary in October . But the fur started flying when she claimed she had n't been invited to the show 's BAFTA ceremony - and the spat the deliciously moved on to Twitter . Commenting on the awkward incident , Phil wrote , " Odd really , because she was invited and declined #memoryloss we 'd have loved her to be there . A vital and much loved part of the show . " Fern retweeted the comment , sniping : " No . I had no invitation to decline . " It got awkward ( Image : ITV ) Fern said she had n't been invited to the BAFTAs ( Image : ITV ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by declining the invite on her behalf without telling her . But the beef all harks back to when she quit the show in 2009 after seven years amid reports she discovered Phil was being paid ? 250,000 more than her . Four years later in 2013 , Phil revealed they were no longer speaking , telling Heat magazine , " No , not really . We were involved in the show and mates at the time , but we do n't really ... " I see Phil Fern 's husband , chef Phil Vickery when he 's in ' This Morning ' ... But we 're not in touch now . " That same month , Fern chose her words carefully during an interview with the Daily Mail . " I always say Phillip and I had an indefinable chemistry which seemed to work well on-screen , she said . Fern 's retweeted Phil 's message ( Image : /Twitter ) In a possible dig at his closeness to her replacement , Holly Willoughby , she continued , " We ' got @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ viewers seemed to warm to that . But , like Morecambe and Wise , we chose not to live in each other 's pockets . " We were a great professional partnership but we never went on holiday together . " I never discussed with Phillip what he and I were earning . I was happy doing the show and happy with my salary . " |

The Queen , 92 , said : " Some cultures believe a long life brings wisdom . I 'd like to think so .

Melania previously wore this coat last December , and it is still as stylish as it was back then .

The White House said security concerns and the short notice of the trip prevented them from meeting . Iraqi lawmakers told Reuters that the pair had disagreed over where their planned meeting should take place : Trump had asked to meet at the Ain al-Asad military base , an offer which Abdul-Mahdi declined .

The daughters of the doctor who provided the medical excuse came forward before the president was known to be in Iraq on Wednesday to claim that their father offered the diagnosis as a favor to the Trumps . Never before had President Trump been to a war zone before his secret trip at Christmas that followed announcements that his secretary of defense and ISIS point man were leaving the administration .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pulled out of walking her through the Quire to the altar' involves 'pulled out of' followed by a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'pulled' and 'out of'. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It also does not exhibit either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'out of' in a different context, referring to something being 'out of keeping with' a conservation area, which is unrelated to the construction in question.

A PLANNING battle has broken out over a bid to build extensions at a 19th century Winchester home . The proposal , for 10 Compton Road , in the city centre , would see a two-storey front extension and single-story built , and is also seeking retrospective planning permission for a boundary wall . The scheme has already received a combined total of 120 objections to both the original and recently amended designs , with a number of prominent Wintonians putting their names against it . William Carver , of neighbouring Christchurch Road and trustee of the Licoricia of Winchester Statue Appeal , wrote to planners : " I believe that this application is out of keeping with the Conservation Area and that it would be a visible affront to it . " The plot has been subdivided without permission contrary to local plan policy and overdeveloped ; the design takes no account of the privacy of neighbours or the nature of its location ; the appeal to historical precedent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ no point in having Conservation or local plans if they are ignored , and to allow this application would be a dreadful precedent which I personally have not elected the council to create . " Meanwhile , Lady Angela Stansfield Smith , widow of award-winning former chief Hampshire County Council architect Sir Colin Stansfield Smith , said : " As the widow of the last Hampshire county architect , I have had a considerable interest in the planning of Winchester and have been an active member of the City of Winchester Trust for many years . " The proposed new plan is totally unacceptable ; the design is obtrusive to all , out of scale with the surrounding properties , and filling the whole site right up to the boundary of no. 12 ( increasing the building 's footprint fourfold ) . " Her son Oliver added : " The new scheme is once again an egregious overdevelopment of the site , and the architectural language is still depressingly coarse and insensitive . " Compton Road remains , for the most part , a fine exemplar @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and architect need to show a little more humility and sympathy to the neighbouring properties . " The dumbed down , ersatz 1930s business park aesthetic is inoffensive when taken out of context ; but in the specific location of Compton Road , it appears impolite and injudicious . " Vice chairman of the City of Winchester Trust Iain Patton said : " Whatever small , cosmetic changes have been made to this proposed building , it remains a jarring intrusion in one of the most distinguished areas of Winchester and harmful to its neighbours . " Although I now live in Canon Street , having moved two months ago , I feel able to object to this application because I lived in Christchurch Road for 48 years , very close to the site of this application and gained a special empathy for that area . " However , the scheme did receive more than a dozen letters of support too . Tom Romita , general manager of Tom 's Deli , in St George 's Street , wrote : " I fully support the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ positively to the area . The applicants have demonstrated their interest and care for the area by what they have achieved in improving the main dwelling and the Coach House . " This is an excellent scheme which I trust will be approved . " Twyford residents Nicola and Simon Peck added : " As developers who frequently face this sort of objection by neighbours who rightfully might be frightened of change and have therefore rallied support ( as is their right ) , one ca n't deny the facts , regardless of how emotional one might feel about the plans -- this is a beautifully located brown site , with a modest building being repurposed as a 21st century home . " ( Applicants ) the Jowitts have clearly accepted that the first scheme was too radical for the neighbourhood and have radically reduced it to respect their neighbour 's opinions .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'ruled him out of leading his side out at Twickenham' does not involve a causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'ruled him out of leading his side out at Twickenham' does not involve a causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action denoted by a VP[-ing] predicate. Instead, 'ruled him out' is a phrasal verb indicating exclusion from participation, and 'leading his side out at Twickenham' is a noun phrase describing the activity from which he is excluded, not a VP[-ing] predicate with a causee interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'makes a speciality out of talking' does not involve a causee NP object that participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a habitual action or characteristic of President Trump without the causative or preventive semantics required by the construction.

The foreign secretary said that the war against Isis was not over despite the president 's claim that the group had been " largely defeated " . Mr Trump said that Turkey and other countries in the region should be able to " easily take care of whatever remains " as he announced that American troops would be withdrawn from Syria .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'take the hassle out of cooking flexitarian' involves an NP ('the hassle') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and 'cooking' modifies 'flexitarian' rather than introducing a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'being kicked out of polling' does not involve a V1 verb followed by an NP object and a VP2[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a passive action where election observers are removed from polling places, which does not align with the defined properties of the construction.

Lengthy voting delays and four deaths were reported across Congo on Sunday , marring the presidential election the country hoped would be its first peaceful , democratic transfer of power since independence in 1960 . Election observers reported multiple problems around the vast Central African nation , which is choosing a successor to President Joseph Kabila after his 17 years in power . The election had been delayed since late 2016 , prompting the opposition to charge that Mr Kabila was trying to stay on past his mandate . Among some 21 candidates , top opposition leaders Martin Fayulu and Felix Tshisekedi are challenging Mr Kabila 's preferred successor , former interior minister Emmanuel Ramazani Shadary , who is under European Union sanctions for a crackdown on people protesting delays to the election . Mr Tshisekedi 's campaign said that four people including a police officer and an electoral official had been killed in the eastern province of South-Kivu . The reports could not be independently confirmed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said some polling stations in Kinshasa , the capital , had not even opened six hours after voting began . He accused Congo 's government of deliberately creating election day chaos to spark a court challenge that could allow Mr Kabila to extend his time in power . " I deplore all the disorder , " Mr Tshisekedi said , saying Mr Kabila 's government was " responsible for this mess " . The voting machines that Congo was using for the first time posed a special problem . The opposition has warned that the machines could be used to manipulate the vote . Many of the country 's 40 million voters have never used a computer , and electricity is limited . Voters at the Les Anges school polling station in Kinshasa burned voting machines and ballots at midday after registration lists failed to arrive ; voting finally started at nightfallCredit : Jerome Delay/AP The Catholic church 's election observer mission said it had received 544 reports of malfunctioning voting machines . It also reported 115 cases of election observers being kicked out of polling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 44 cases of vote-buying or corruption . Nearly 50 polling stations in Kinshasa were idle for hours because lists of registered voters had not been delivered , electoral commission chief Corneille Nangaa said . The sprawling city is an opposition stronghold . Another observer group , Symotel , reported a multitude of problems including the movement of polling stations to new locations at the last minute . Confused voters did n't know where to go . " We knew there would be issues , but this is way beyond what we expected , " spokesman Luc Lutala said . At stake is control of a country rich in minerals including those crucial to the world 's smartphones and electric cars , and yet Congo remains desperately underdeveloped with widespread corruption and insecurity . Election unrest had been feared after a last-minute decision to bar an estimated 1 million people from voting because of a deadly Ebola virus outbreak in the east . The decision was widely criticised as threatening the credibility of the election and putting health workers in danger as people protest . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was delayed until March , long after Congo 's new leader will be inaugurated in January . On Sunday , well over 10,000 people lined up in Beni to stage their own election , vowing to deliver the results to the electoral commission .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and the phrase 'out of cutting back on a bit of sugar or laying off the booze' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe the manner or context in which the performance is made, not a causative action with a causee.

At this time of year , the false religion of excess is often exchanged for the equally false religion of abstention . Gym memberships are entered into with all good faith -- only to be cast aside like stale mince pies by March . Dry January is embarked upon , before ending in a boozy blowout come February 1 .

It 's hard to judge the Emery project until we 've seen what he can do in a transfer window or two -- and there 's an obvious area for him to address . The wing/full-back role has become such a demanding one these days that top sides need to be able to rotate a minimum of four quality options . With ours dropping like flies , we badly need some new blood in that position . Unfortunately , though , any plans to address it this winter might be derailed by the need to provide cover for the injured Welbeck and Holding . The other factor to watch is whether or not the futures of ? zil and Ramsey become any clearer . Bernard Azulay , **27;142;TOOLONG We need another right-back to cover for injuries to Simon Francis and Adam Smith , and a central midfielder to replace Lewis Cook , who ruptured an ACL . Stoke 's Joe Allen , Chelsea 's Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Celtic 's Callum MacGregor could all be neat fits for us . And we tried to sign Chris Mepham from Brentford last summer , so there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ again in an effort to improve the options in the centre of defence . Peter Bell , **25;171;TOOLONG We genuinely do n't need anyone . Chris Hughton 's summer business was spot-on : the new arrivals have settled and are starting to deliver on a consistent basis . There 's good strength in depth . We may need to spend if anyone leaves , though -- rumours about Liverpool wanting Pascal Gross are very unwelcome . Steph Fincham , Observer reader There 's definitely work to do in January . It 's not hard to see what our biggest problem is : we ca n't stop conceding . To help address that I 'd like to see us prioritise a good , strong central midfielder to firm things up . We could do with creative reinforcements as well , though : a wide player would make a difference and we could maybe add a striker too , given that the one we signed in the summer , Matej Vydra , is n't getting much of a look-in . As always , it 's important @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the club 's ethos . Tony Scholes , **26;198;TOOLONG I 'd love a new striker : not a lower-league gamble but a proven Premier League forward . We were linked with Troy Deeney last summer , and I 'd take him in January if he was made available . He could make all the difference : we have a reasonable attacking threat when we 're on top in games but that bit of extra quality is what we really need . Likewise , we could do with some more talent at the back . We have likable , hard-working defenders but there are still far too many mistakes . Michael Morris , CardiffCity-mad.co.uk Could Watford 's Troy Deeney make all the difference for Cardiff ? Photograph : Chris Radburn/PA The obvious gap -- and it 's been obvious for some time now -- is up top . We need a dependable , top-class striker . Giroud definitely has great link-up play with Hazard , holds the ball up and creates space for others , but he does seem more effective coming off the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Drogba , or even a new Diego Costa . Someone who can create something out of nothing when there does n't seem to be a way through . Mauro Icardi seems to be touted most often -- he 's a proven goalscorer , though he does come with a lot of baggage , mostly in the form of his agent/wife Wanda . Paulo Dybala looks a much better option to me but it 's unlikely that Juventus would let him go . Trizia Fiorellino , **26;226;TOOLONG We 've got a pretty simple wish list for January : someone who can score goals . It 's as simple as that . Though Connor Wickham is back fit and featured against Cardiff , and Christian Benteke is back in training after a long layoff , neither is prolific . And Ayew and Sorloth as back-ups are just not good enough . We 've been heavily linked with Michy Batshuayi and Dominic Solanke ; Roy is apparently keener on the latter and that makes sense given the positive impact he had on another young English prospect , Ruben Loftus-Cheek @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ RLC back on loan but the odds are slim . Chris Waters , **31;254;TOOLONG The Fiver : sign up and get our daily football email . Marco Silva has transformed the playing style -- now he can continue transforming the shape of the squad , alongside Marcel Brands . Hopefully the days of us signing a stopgap striker for a couple of seasons are over : we need some proper planning and some long-term thinking . Signing a young player such as Leipzig 's talented Jean-K ? vin Augustin would be exciting -- and if there 's a chance of taking Andr ? Gomes from Barcelona on a permanent basis , we should jump at it . Steve Jones , @BlueKippercom It 's not rocket science : we need players fit and able to play Premier League football , rather than those with fantastic stats who need time to adjust . Will Ranieri have any say in the matter ? Until recently we 've been leaking goals for fun , so a solid , cohesive defensive unit is imperative -- Gary Cahill 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ general , players with real heart and commitment . We secured promotion with such a truly concerted , united team effort . How 's all that been allowed to dissipate ? David Lloyd , Toofif.co.uk What do we need ? A striker . Any striker who is capable of hitting the target from 10 yards . Seriously anyone will do . Jordan Rhodes would be my pick -- he was a legend with us at League One level and has never got the chance in the Premier League . His all-round game might not be amazing but he has that ability to score from any situation . John McNamara , **29;287;TOOLONG If Claude Puel wants to last long-term , he 'll have to commit to abandoning his brand of football , as he did over Christmas , and accept that the squad needs new faces . It 's obvious that investment is needed . The squad is crying out for a new striker and a creative midfielder . Callum Wilson would be an ambitious and expensive punt -- he 'd take a lot of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ proven record at this level . There 's also a sizeable appetite among fans for the club to try to re-sign our former creator-in-chief Danny Drinkwater from Chelsea -- but there 's also no reason why , with the likes of Newcastle poking around , we should n't go in for Ruben Loftus-Cheek instead , who would almost certainly be an upgrade . Chris Whiting , @ChrisRWhiting There is an appetite among Leicester fans for the club to re-sign Danny Drinkwater from Chelsea . Photograph : Nigel French/PA We have Oxlade-Chamberlain to come back and Lallana regaining full fitness -- so do we really need to be spending money in January ? Klopp did our business in summer . There 's always an argument to add options , of course , so maybe cover for left-back would be handy ? There 's also some talk that we could do with a classic No 10 , someone like Dybala at Juventus . I 'm not sure , though -- would our high-tempo pressing style really suit him ? Steph Jones , Observer reader @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Guardiola has already said as much -- but if we are in the market for anybody , then it should be a replacement for Fernandinho . I use the word " replacement " loosely -- I think we 'll struggle to replace him like-for-like given his unique qualities . My preferred option as things stand would probably be Lyon 's Tanguy Ndomb ? l ? , who definitely has the physicality to succeed in England but more importantly looks to have the technical quality and the mentality to play in a Guardiola midfield . Lloyd Scragg , @lloydscragg Where do you start ? We need to ship out a load of bang-average players first . Too many are just stealing a living . Above all we need to find some real , honest leaders : authority figures who can sort out players who seem more interested in their social media status than their performances . We should have broken the bank for Verratti , a strong , combative figure who controls games . Alderweireld should have been signed in the summer when Mourinho was crying out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Kant ? comes to something , and Declan Rice is one for the future -- so let 's try now . Shaun O'Donnell , Observer reader If Mike Ashley sells up quickly to rich , success-hungry investors , then we could set about prising proven players away from their clubs . That seems unlikely , though , so Rafa will need to lean on all of his contacts and powers of persuasion to bolster a squad which needs strengthening in most areas . We have no effective back up to Paul Dummett and DeAndre Yedlin at full-back , and a predatory goalscorer is on the wish list , too . Perhaps most importantly , we 're in need of a central midfielder in the Kevin Nolan or Joey Barton mould -- someone who can grab hold of a game and drive the team forward when all seems lost . Richard & David Holmes , Observer readers Until we know which of our players are going to be able ( or willing ) to cope with the new manager 's high-intensity gameplan , it 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we still look fairly weak but perhaps the issues can be coached out of the players , who do n't seem to have had any individual coaching for some time . And despite three goals against Arsenal , we still look a bit shy of goals if Ings is not available , so a Shane Long equivalent who can actually score might be high up the list . Certainly a bit more pace would be welcome -- though given the amount the club has paid in sacked-manager compensation in the last two years or so ( potentially up to ? 30m including all the backroom staff ) , we might be forced to look to the academy and under-23s for that . Steve Grant , **30;318;TOOLONG Spurs do n't really do signings these days . OK , so a youthful back-up to Harry Kane would be nice , perhaps someone to bolster the midfield with Mousa Demb ? l ? on the wane ( we 've been linked with Tanguy Ndomb ? l ? of Lyon , for instance ) . But we 've got that stadium @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we 'll probably have to be content with keeping what we 've got and trusting in the homegrown youth -- a cheeky dual bid for Anthony Martial and Paul Pogba notwithstanding . Richard Barnes , Observer reader The volume of transfer activity may hinge on PSG 's willingness to stump up ? 45m for Doucour ? . Fortunately he signed a five-year contract in the summer and , much as he 's a star , we 're well stocked in central midfield . That aside , our forwards all have valuable attributes , but scoring a shedload is n't a skillset we 've got covered . It 's difficult not to reflect on the summer rumours linking us to Paco Alc ? cer who has been pulling up trees for his new side Dortmund . But frankly I would take whoever is top the club 's wanted list -- their judgment is better than mine . Matt Rowson , BHappy.wordpress.com Left-back is still a problem : Arthur Masuaku and Aaron Cresswell are good going forward but struggle defensively . We also need a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ midfielder . Ruben Loftus-Cheek might be a good loan , and I quite like the look of Watford 's Doucour ? and Huddersfield 's Philip Billing , while Nasri , if he proves fit and legit , could provide more imagination . Another priority for next month : keeping hold of Marko Arnautovic . Pete May , **32;350;TOOLONG We 've underperformed in the final third , so it would make sense to target an attacking player to support Ra ? l Jim ? nez and Diogo Jota . Shoya Nakajima is one name linked from Portimonense . Elsewhere the recent injury to Jonny revealed a potential lack of depth at wing-back . Otherwise we 're well covered after a very good summer of transfers , so I expect it to be relatively quiet while clubs with more needs scramble . Louie Silvani , **29;384;TOOLONG |

Bollywood has seen it all in 2018 . From comebacks to film controversies , to unconventional films and actors , Bollywood gave us many reasons to use Google . Directors were n't afraid to experiment , stories took a ' real ' turn , and your last name did n't have to be Khan to be appreciated . As 2018 comes to a close , BizAsiaLive.com looks at the top five films of 2018 that have given us many reasons to await Bollywood movie night . ' Sanju ' When you have a meticulous actor like Ranbir Kapoor and a born storyteller in director Rajkumar Hirani , you get ' Sanju ' . Possibly one of the most anticipated films of Kapoor 's this year , ' Sanju ' was 2018 's biggest blockbuster . Directed by Hirani , the film brought us into actor Sanjay Dutt 's whirlwind Bollywood career , struggles , merit , and cherished relationship between him and his father , the late Sunil Dutt . The audience had only heard , read and ' seen ' the infamous Sanjay Dutt , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and a running-with-the-bulls Dutt , all emphasizing that the role could only be completed by Kapoor . Kapoor transformed into Dutt to portray him from his young rebellious years to his mature self-discovery , all with ease and natural progression . With a diverse cast of actors Paresh Rawal , Manisha Koirala , Vicky Kaushal , Anushka Sharma , Sonam Kapoor , and Dia Mirza , ' Sanju ' was more than praiseworthy and exceeded expectations . ' AndhaDhun ' An exhilarating joyride is what you receive from director Sriram Raghavan , actor Ayushmann Khurrana , and a story of a ' blind ' pianist who witnesses a high profile murder . Khurrana played pianist Akash , who only pretends to be blind to ' feel ' his music . He continues this facade even when meeting Sophie ( Radhika Apte ) who is well fascinated by his talent and hires him to play at her father 's restaurant . Akash is then discovered by yesteryear actor Pramod Sinha ( Anil Dhawan ) who requests him to play the piano for his wife as an anniversary present , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ witnessing ' a dead Pramod and Mrs. Sinha ( Tabu ) and her lover ( Manav Vij ) dragging the body into a suitcase , which is later discovered in an abandoned area . What follows is a pulse inducing , dark journey of Akash trying to report this heinous crime , which he fails to do as Mrs. Sinha discovers that he is n't blind but poisons him into losing his eyesight . Khurrana is ever brilliant and does n't break a sweat as he unravels through Raghavan 's murderous web , and Raghavan keeps you guessing till the end credits , where he hints at perhaps , a sequel . ' Badhaai Ho ' It has been the year of Ayushmann Khurrana to say the least . ' Badhaai Ho ' was not the typical congratulatory Bollywood film , where Khurrana ( Nakul ) would be at the receiving end of congratulatory messages and cavities for his impending wedding with Renee ( Sanya Malhotra ) . It took you to a middle class family whose life curved into a pregnant turn , where Khurrana 's mother played @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was pregnant at the age of being crowned grandmother . Her husband Jeetender ( Gajraj Rao ) looks forward to welcoming a new child but children Nakul and Gullar ( Shardul Rana ) are highly embarrassed and start avoiding their parents , even as the family prepares for a family wedding . Each character is utilized efficiently and director Amit Sharma leaves no room for questioning , taking you on a smooth ride through thorough storytelling . ' Padmaavat ' This Sanjay Leela Bhansali masterpiece started 2018 off with a bang . The film told the story of Rani Padmavati , her husband Maharawal Ratan Singh , and enemy Sultan Alauddin Khilji , played by Deepika Padukone , Shahid Kapoor , and Ranveer Singh respectively . The period drama took us through power , love , betrayal , and strength . Padukone 's portrayal of the queen was nothing but elegant and distinguished , while Kapoor gave us an endearing , loyal and strong ruler . Singh 's performance as the dreaded Alauddin Khilji was perhaps the most noteworthy . In his first grey character , he was perfectly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ weaved them into a seamless story . ' Manmarziyaan ' Director Anurag Kashyap gives us a love story , but ' Manmarziyaan ' is n't your typical boy-meets-girl love story and why would it be . Kashyap is known for his hard hitting , dark storylines , except this film is not the gritty themed Kashyap drama . There is passion , immaturity , patience , and lots of hormones . Rumi played by Taapsee Pannu is not your typical Bollywood fairytale princess . She is brash and speaks her mind , but is still lovable and in love . She 's in love with the non-committal Vicky played by Vicky Kaushal , who backs out of marrying her , even though he is given an ultimatum . Rumi will marry someone else if she does n't get to marry Vicky , and that someone else is the silent Robbie , played by Abhishek Bachchan . Pannu and Kaushal are perfection and beyond words for their eccentric , demanding characters . Bachchan eases into Robbie and makes us wonder what 's been keeping him away from the big screen @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Kashyap 's direction proving he 's quite good at pure romance . Aside from these films , there have been many which have been appreciated throughout the year such as ' PadMan ' , ' October ' and ' Veere Di Wedding ' , to name a few . They deserve a mention for their overall fresh content as well as the pull they 've achieved in terms of box office numbers . Whether it was ' PadMan ' with the socially relevant story , ' October ' with its sombre feel or ' Veere Di Wedding ' which was arguably one of the most daring films of the year , there were many which gave the indication that cinema consumption is changing . |

Following the release of her brand new album ' Always In Between ' , featuring the hits ' I 'll Be There ' and ' Thursday ' , the first outdoor show kicks off at Doncaster Racecourse taking place on Saturday 18th May , where the Summer will see Jess playing the racecourse grounds including Lingfield Park Resort in Surrey , finishing off at Wolverhampton -- Racecourse on Saturday 31st August . ' I always used to think that you 're nobody until somebody loves you , ' says Jess Glynne , singer , star , voice of the street . In her first few years in the music industry , Jess has carved out a unique slot all of her own . Where others were contemplating the aftermath of heartache , she was always about standing on your own two feet . At the start of 2018 , she took a listen back to her just completed second album , Always in Between . Like her blockbuster debut , I Cry When I Laugh , Jess brokers the hinterlands between pop , soul , R&B @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that you have to be that person for yourself . ' She smiles as she says it . ' It 's been a right old journey getting here , I can tell you . ' When she looks at the statistics that have marked her sky-rocketing career so far , there is a look of mild disbelief on the face of Jess Glynne , as if this might have happened to someone else . I Cry When I Laugh is one of the defining British pop records of its era . At the time of writing it has been a chart staple for 138 weeks . It debuted at number one , spawning 12million worldwide singles sales , 39 weeks on the UK top 10 , 2.5billion Spotify streams , a sold out UK arena tour , Brit , MTV : EMA , Ivor Novello , MOBO , Q and Glamour award nominations . These are the facts . Underneath is Jess 's peerless ability to commune with an audience through song ; to tell the truths young women want to hear about their concerns , the loves @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ aspirations and dreams that might turn sour but you 'll smile through them anyway . From the beautiful , pared back , gospel inflected uplift of debut cut I 'll Be There , it is clear that Jess is ready to build on the momentous footwork put in on her first foray into fame . Jess Glynne is a girl from North London who is noticeably free of airs and graces . The stardust she 's gathered since first appearing to the sound of an instantly recognisable string break surprises no-one more than Jess herself . She sings because she loves to and writes songs because she wants answers to her own emotional quandaries . Her powerhouse vocal and fearless delivery has captured so many under its spell . But for Jess , this was all just about learning who she is as a person . As she enters the cycle once more , braving herself for a second ride on the fame rollercoaster , she may just have reached that point . It was in a moment 's inspiration while sitting with her friend and closest musical @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Glynne alighted upon the title of her second record . There and then , she decided album number two would be called Always In Between . ' There 's loads of different emotions in me but I always know what I 'm doing with the music . That 's the one thing I do know . It 's my safe space . In life , I am very in touch with my emotions . Music is the one place I know I can let it out . It 's a way of processing my uncertainty . ' The more she thought about the title , the more it fit . The album 's major lyrical concerns are about the hardest human trait of all : self-acceptance . Set against fresh new arrangements and gifted Jess 's unique ability to find a panoply of hooks and harmonies that lodge between the ears after one listen , her second album feels as prematurely hit-studded as the first . The strangest thing about Jess Glynne 's working process is though she has a habit of sneezing hits , they are never @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ forever in between : real life and fame . It 's part of the reason Jess resonates so clearly with her audience . ' Mess ups and all , ' she qualifies . ' What I learned in the space between the two records is that I need to make myself happy and stop thinking somebody else will do it for me . If somebody is going to come into my life and stand by my side , I feel like I 've got the strength in me now to let that happen . Because I do n't need it to happen . I 've got to that place through this whole experience . Finally . ' Sessions for Always In Between began in spring 2017 , when a rigorous schedule of writing camps with the kind of cream-of-the-crop talent that is automatically attracted to blockbuster , bestselling artists formed an orderly queue at her record label 's behest in Los Angeles . ' I just do n't like working that way though , ' says Jess . ' Some of the sessions looked amazing on paper , with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ draining , all new people that I had n't worked with . I 'm very funny about getting in the studio with people I do n't know just because they 've had a hit . I want to work with people who I love . ' She returned with hundreds of songs and nothing she loved . ' I got to quite a dark place in myself where . ' Retiring back into her own life , she wanted time to herself , to make sense of the monumental changes that had occurred in her life since a guest spot on Clean Bandit 's omnipresent pop-house smash Rather Be blew the whistle on the rollercoaster of her musical life . So much had changed in the three years of I Cry When I Laugh 's success . ' Fame started to mess my head up , ' she says . ' You do n't feel like you 've changed but people around you think you have . ' Her personal relationships were forever in a state of flux . ' That was another in between . You reach @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ learn about relationships and how to deal with things . The new record was n't going to be about someone else , it was going to be about learning how to be me , even if I did n't really fit in anywhere . Learning not to care about that . ' Jess hired a house in the British countryside and took a band of friends and musicians away for the week . They spent the entire seven days in one another 's company , bouncing ideas around , jamming , writing together . By the end of the second day she had finished the addictive pop funk track , 1,2,3 . ' I could feel the mood shifting . ' Suddenly making music had stopped being a workplace and started feeling like a holiday . The songs were now flying out of her . ' And we got pretty much the whole album done in that week . ' This was the way records were made in the 70s and 80s , just some friends hanging out , away from the fray , marrying themselves to music @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ' she says , ' but we ended up with everything . ' Most of the arrangements on the record are faithful to their original recordings . ' I kept the backing vocals from us all sat around a mic , enjoying ourselves . They might be a bit raw . Not everyone can sing . But you can feel us enjoying ourselves , getting what you 're supposed to get out of making a record . ' Jess had found her alchemical touch for turning out songs that mean something to her . ' That 's the only way to connect , ' she says . The cornerstone song of the record Thursday , which she wrote with Ed Sheeran , contains a faultlessly honest summation of its intention : I wo n't wear makeup on Thursday/Because who I am is enough . ' I do n't write songs because I want a hit , ' she says . ' I never have and I never will . I want to make a great album , that 's it . ' In the event , she @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , a spare , thoughtful showcase for her instantly familiar , rousing vocal styling , every bit the introductory calling card Hold My Hand was back in 2015 , at the beginning of Jess 's incredible pop life .

' I felt like I was in between a normal life and a famous life , this or that relationship , and it 's felt at times like I was lost . ' With age , comes understanding . Over the last couple of years Jess has learned one of life 's vital lessons and put it all back into her second record . ' It was n't that I was lost , at all . It was about learning to love myself .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of nothing' is used idiomatically to indicate that the goal was unexpected or from an unlikely situation, not as part of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Craig Samson knows first-hand what it is like to face Josh Maja , and Sunderland 's goalkeeping coach fully understands why Jack Ross is so keen to keep the 20-year-old . Maja starts 2019 not knowing where it will take him . He is expected to be part of the Black Cats ' squad at Blackpool on New Year 's Day , but must decide before the next game -- at Charlton Athletic on Saturday -- if he wants to sign a new contract to stay at the Stadium of Light . Fail to do so , and the Wearsiders may feel they have to cash in on him during the January transfer window rather than letting a striker who has already scored 14 goals this season leave for a nominal fee at the end of the campaign . Samson was in goal for St Mirren when they faced Maja and the Black Cats in pre-season and admits it was one of the few times in his career when he was glad to be substituted , so he knows all about the youngster 's qualities . " All I can say about Josh is , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who retired from playing in November to become goalkeeping coach at the Stadium of Light . " He stays behind every day and even if it 's an empty net , he 'll smash 100 balls in . He 'll ask me if he can have a goalkeeper , ask me to pass balls to him to hit . He works so hard at it . " He can really , really finish . " He has a very big future ahead of him , I watch him every day , his attitude is second to none . He just loves football and just loves scoring goals . " Maja and Lynden Gooch -- who looks much more likely to extend his stay beyond the end of his contract this summer -- both beat Samson in the first half of July 's friendly at St Mirren Park , and scored again after Samson came off in what turned into a 6-0 win for the Black Cats . " I blanked that firmly out of my mind ! " joked Samson . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The manager ( former St Mirren boss Ross ) and James ( Fowler , his assistant ) coming back , we were trying to build things so to get a bit of a spanking was not great . " I 've never really wanted to be subbed off at half-time in a game before but in that game I was happy enough ! " It certainly built up a bit of momentum for Sunderland and once you get that you keep chalking games off . The ride he ( Ross ) was on at St Mirren , it was n't just the promotion year , when he went in they should n't really have stayed up but he just won game after game . " It 's been great to see that happening again here and hopefully the end result is the same . " St Mirren won last season 's Scottish Championship under Ross . With a string of Premier League and Championship clubs interested , Maja is unlikely to be short of options if he holds @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and his coaches will hope to persuade him his best hope of fulfilling his potential for now is at the Stadium of Light , where injuries to Charlie Wyke , Duncan Watmore and Jerome Sinclair gave him the opportunity of an early-season run of matches which he has taken brilliantly . Maja 's close friend and fellow academy product Joel Asoro left for Championship Swansea City in the summer , but has only started four league games to Maja 's 20 . He is yet to score for his new club . If Maja has been a success at one end of the field , goalkeeper Jon McLaughlin has been almost as impressive at the other , and Samson admits that on replacing Jimmy Walker as coach , he was conscious of not trying to fix something that was not broken . " When I first came in , I was very conscious of the fact that , you 're not going to change everything overnight and potentially upset the balance , " he says . " I spoke to Jon , Robbin ( Ruiter , his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' Let 's carry on as we 're going and I 'll put my own stamp on things as we go along . ' " I speak to Jon about the games and goals , building that relationship . He 's been excellent , I know his old goalkeeping coach at Hearts very well and I 've watched a lot of the games he has played in so I had a rough idea of what he 's like as a person and a goalkeeper . " Jon has played in the Championship , the Scottish Premiership , he 's not getting that Scotland recognition for nothing . I 'd watched footage of the games from when I 'd not been here and he 's been one of the stand-outs . We 've scored a hell of a lot of goals but when we 've been under pressure , he 's been there . He 's been magnificent at the side of things . " You look at the Bristol Rovers game ( when McLaughlin suffered a back spasm ) . Credit to him because he could possibly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ca n't make the save late in the game , that maybe affects the team . He felt it was a better decision and it proved to be right . " He 's very , very steady . Every goalkeeper makes mistakes but it 's how many can you limit through the season that determines you how good you are . Jon wo n't make many . He 's a calming influence and sometimes that 's what you need . I can see that . " I said to Jon , if there 's things you 're not sure about then we 'll speak about it because you 're playing well . That 's not been the case , to be honest . " Playing for this manager as a goalkeeper can be a bit frustrating because we 're open . You could win 4-3 , coming away raging because you 'd given away three goals , but it 's all about the team . " There 'll be spells in games where we might 1-0 but the way we play as a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ basketball . Let 's see who has got the best attacking players and we 'll see if we can score more goals than you . " As a goalkeeper , that can be frustrating but it 's about getting back up and he understands that . " The Barnsley game ( November 's 4-2 home win ) is a great example of that . That 'll happen but he knows there will be games where he needs to make that big save so we win 1-0 and he has certainly done that so far . " Time Line The launch of the new era under Jack Ross was n't going to plan , with Sunderland trailing 1-0 on the opening day . The late drama came from Lynden Gooch , but only after Maja 's leveller . He scored out of nothing in the 66th minute . Just as frustrations were starting to grow , Maja received the ball in the box , turned under pressure and fired home . The Black Cats were simply irresistible in the first half against the Iron , and Maja 's goal came quickly after Max Power opened the scoring . He collected Bryan Oviedo 's pass just inside the area , rolled his marker , and then fired a right-footed shot which beat Watson 's dive and found the bottom left-hand corner . After falling behind early on , Sunderland responded well to soundly beat Gillingham , Maja adding the fourth . The game was only an hour old when Reece James ' low cross was helped on by Honeyman into Maja 's path and he had time to control it and stab his shot into the right side of the net from eight yards out . Fleetwood were on top at the Stadium of Light , but Sunderland got back on level @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 30 minutes , the home side suddenly sprung into life and the striker was able to get on the end of George Honeyman 's cross and divert the ball into the bottom corner . Sunderland had n't been at their best in the opening half hour against Rochdale , but everything changed once Maja had opened the scoring . Chris Maguire worked an opening down the left-hand side , and his pinpoint cross found Maja unmarked in the box . The striker made no mistake with a well-placed header from six yards . Maja had already scored one and helped create the chance which led to Sunderland 's second from the penalty spot . Then , with the first half almost over , the put the game to bed as a contest with a superbly-taken goal . Denver Hume fed the striker in the box , and his sublime first touch allowed him to turn and sweep the ball home with his second . Adam Matthews fed the ball in to Maja 's feet inside @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his marker before sweeping a low shot across the keeper and just inside the far post . Aiden McGeady 's cross was only half-cleared as far as Lee Cattermole on the edge of the box , he had time to bring it down and volley goalwards , and Maja used his chest to guide the ball into the left side of the net , leaving the keeper no chance . Bryan Oviedo 's pinpoint cross found Maja lurking at the far post , and the striker controlled perfectly before finding the back of the net . George Honeyman got to the byline on the right , drove the ball across the face of goal and Maja had time to control inside the six-yard box and fire into the bottom left-hand corner . Adam Matthews played the ball to Maja in the right-hand channel and he turned inside Pinnock on the edge of the box and curled a left-foot shot into the top left-hand corner . Max Power 's pass found Bryan Oviedo on the move down the left and he whipped in a precision cross for Maja to head home from inside the six-yard box . |

The wind is set to blow for the first round of the Tournament of Champions , adding to the sense that tentative steps are required as the PGA Tour returns from its Christmas break . It would surely be unwise to pile into Cameron Champ , for instance , in his two-ball with Satoshi Kodaira . Only one of these is on what seems a straight path to the top of the sport , and Champ 's bullet drives will be drooled over for years to come , but his opponent is no mug and signed off 2018 with a win in Japan . There are better bets at odds-on , including Matt Kuchar to beat Michael Kim , a player who did little either side of that remarkable eight-shot win in the John Deere Classic under conditions a world away from those expected in Hawaii . Kuchar also won from somewhat out of the blue in Mexico and on just about any other day of the year , 4/6 would be a gift from the gods . He 's an excellent coastal player with a sub-70 scoring @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stuck into one , it 's a choice of Kuchar , Charles Howell III or indeed both . Howell III has eight solid rounds at the course to his name - a couple of exceptional ones within that octet - and his RSM Classic win further underlines that today 's breeze will only help . Brice Garnett , who did win in the Dominican last year , ought to be outclassed . Yet I return to the opening sentiment : tentative steps . While past winners here confirm that many players take the transition from one year to the next in their stride , there will be those who lack focus , sharpness or both and only when they take to the course will all be revealed . As such it 's just one bet for me - Billy Horschel to beat Justin Thomas . While neither player would prefer a gale , both are adept under such conditions but it 's the idea that wind acts as a leveller which adds to the view that 15/8 is a good price about the underdog . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ last year 's BMW Championship , where Horschel won the two-ball by four shots with a scintillating 64 , while he was better than JT for three of the four rounds of this event last year . Thomas of course won the 2017 renewal , but either side of it he 's failed to crack the top-20 of an event which this year attracts 34 players , evidence perhaps that if he does n't manage to get the blood pumping with an early run , he 's likely to go through the motions a little . Earlier this week , he confirmed that he 'd needed a rest come the end of the Hero World Challenge , where he carded four so-so rounds of 70 to finish 12th of 18 players . That rest came courtesy of " 20 nights at home " , which Thomas says is the longest stretch since he turned professional . Yes , he added that he was able to both " get a good amount of rest " and " work on my game , work on my body " , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ which he complained of rust during the tournament , telling reporters he made " dumb " mistakes that owe plenty to the timing of the event . If Thomas is indeed slow out of the gates then Horschel , who ended last year in excellent form , is just the sort to take advantage . He 's a player who will want to prove himself every time he tees off with a member of the elite , where he feels he should be , and form figures of 6-22-11 here are perfectly respectable . There 's very little downside in speculating and it does n't hurt that Horschel was ninth in first-round scoring last season . In the outright market , Marc Leishman is in to 25/1 from an advised 33/1 - now set to go off the price he did last year , when but for an awful Saturday he 'd surely have separated eventual one-two , Dustin Johnson and Jon Rahm . Leishman has confirmed what I had hoped - that a late-season disappointment back home has him geared up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enhance the already excellent record of Australians here . Of the market leaders , Rory McIlroy has been easy to back and that 's largely on account of his underwhelming end to last year , the fact that he 's making his debut at Plantation and the forecast , which suggests a steady wind for the first two days at least . McIlroy has also been spotted with the Taylor Made Spider putter , made famous by Jason Day and Dustin Johnson in recent years , and any hint of experimentation tends to have people running scared . On which note , the PGA Tour have published a running list of 2019 equipment changes - although the biggest headline so far is Justin Rose 's deal with Honma , the big-thinking Japanese manufacturer . While it may well be that Rose is able to stick with his Taylor Made ball and most players adapt well in time , in the short-term it 's very possible that he 's no longer world 's most reliable golfer . Rose is n't in Hawaii but compatriot Paul Casey @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ irons during practice . It remains to be seen whether a deal is forthcoming but those in the know are forecasting high-profile additions to Rose in the coming weeks . Speaking of players who enjoyed fabulous years but are making changes nonetheless , Francesco Molinari has also been seen using Callaway irons , having been a freelancer with Taylor Made in the bag last year . Callaway tend to start the year with a few high-profile signings , although it seems Molinari is likely still a free agent who has been wooed by another firm . Still , he could be using my clubs and the 48.0 on Betfair would look an overreaction , would n't it ? Patrick Reed has a fine record here ( 16-1-2-6 ) and says that the Plantation Course speaks to his creative side , while also allowing him to get out of " playing golf swing " as he does in the off-season .

My flatmate chose his words carefully . Yesterday , he sheepishly admitted that he was " planning a sort out " . He deliberately did n't say " tidying up " because he quite rightly suspected that would not go down well with me . I 'm all for basic order and cleanliness -- I 'll gladly do the washing up . But this week I 've been railing against tidying as a lifestyle choice . The chief culprit is Marie Kondo , who has made a living out of saying being neat can transform your life . She now has a Netflix series , Tidying Up with Marie Kondo . And thus an act once innate and so mundane that you barely reflect on it has become fetishised . You may think you are just folding your T-shirts but actually you are taking control of your life and making it happy and more vibrant -- so you 'd better do it right . What 's next , competitive teeth-brushing ? Inevitably it 's spawned a social media trend . A woman called Mrs Hinch has amassed a tidy ( excuse the pun ) 1.4 million @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , hashtagged " cleaningobsessed " . Do n't these people watching her know we live in a golden age of TV ? I 'd rather clean an actual toilet than watch videos of people doing it . I did read Kondo 's first book , The Life Changing Magic of Tidying , and admit it was entertaining . According to Kondo , " to go throughout life without knowing how to fold is a huge loss " . Depends how you define loss . She anthropomorphises clothes : after a hard day on your feet your socks are thrilled to be curled up in a drawer . Luckily , Kondo 's husband is also neat , so she wo n't know the pain I feel when my flatmate tidies up and I ca n't find my things . And so far everyone on her show agrees with her too . For a real challenge , I 'd like to see her meet Marlon Brando , who knew the magic of messy . Truman Capote wrote that in Brando 's room , " all that he owned seemed to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ costume of a dismantled scarecrow " . Sounds more interesting than being #cleaningobsessed . I spent Christmas in the company of The Boss , listening to his Springsteen on Broadway album while driving across the Yorkshire moors . Each song is preceded by an introduction where he holds forth on everything from smalltown mentality and male role models to how much sugar he puts on his sugar pops -- enough to make them look like the Himalayas ( not in keeping with this week 's health warnings but he 's done all right ) . Bruce would make a formidable preacher . He knows how to push the right buttons , make you laugh and then tug at your heartstrings . Sandra Bullock ( Getty Images ) Ever since I saw her in Miss Congeniality 2 , I 've thought Sandra Bullock is a superb actress . Her performance was so perfectly judged that I screamed at one of the tenser twists -- and she has impeccable comic timing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ yourself ( and your pets ) doing tasks blindfolded . It 's inspired by her new film , Bird Box , where she and her children must avoid eye contact with a mysterious force that kills you with a look -- think a modern Medusa . Wearing a blindfold is one way to escape the news on Brexit but Netflix warns that the challenge is dangerous . So instead , watch Bullock 's back catalogue or speculate on what she and Jennifer Aniston spoke about when they spent New Year 's Eve together . Bird Box is directed by the woman behind The Night Manager , Susanne Bier , and shows Bullock in stern mode -- not caring about whether people think she is nice -- and Tom Hollander as a baddie called Gary . Over Christmas I saw a lot of men employing flattery to get out of mundane tasks . " I could make dinner/hoover/wrap the presents but you just do it so much better " is the line they tend to roll out for an easier life @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into the insidious idea that certain skills are female . Miriam Gonz ? lez Dur ? ntez , who I interviewed recently , summed it up : " Everything depends on you as a person . There 's this thing about women being better negotiators . I work as a negotiator , but I prefer it when people just do what I say . " |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'get out of eating' where 'eating' is a gerund functioning as a noun, not as part of a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

One third miss the smell of unhealthy meals when they are in the midst of a health kick , and one in eight thinks junk food has a better texture than any leafy greens . And three in five think trying to eat healthily reduces the enjoyment they get out of eating . The study also found to ensure they get more of an enjoyable eating experience , Brits turn to sugary , fatty foods over healthier alternatives . Forty two per cent identify the sweet smoothness of chocolate as their healthy eating Achilles ' heel , while a third are undone by the flavoursome crunch of crisps . Registered nutritionist and cookery writer Rob Hobson , who has partnered with Tilda , said : " The perceptions around food boredom is a key factor for diet fatigue and the reason why many dieters quickly revert back to old eating habits . " It 's clear from the research findings that our senses have a huge role to play in the food choices we make . ' ' But it is clear we reach to unhealthy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of crisps to satisfy these needs as the perception of healthy dishes hitting a multi-sensory note is more difficult to achieve . " Convenience and ease of preparation are also highlighted as reasons why people find it difficult to stick to a healthy diet , with 44 per cent of dieters of the view that they would eat meals that are better for them if they were easier to prepare and more readily accessible . " If you combine this with all the other misconceptions around healthy food this creates a huge barrier to eating well . ' ' When asked to consider the factors which might convince them to stick to their diet for longer two in five said they would be more likely to stick to a diet if they could find healthy meals which they found delicious . One in four said they would stick with a diet if the meals they ate looked more appetising . And 54 per cent thought a visible improvement in their appearance would help to spur them on to keep living their healthy lifestyle . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Getty ) A resounding 95 per cent of dieters can name a specific dish which would tempt them away from their healthy eating habits that deliver the multi-sensory hit they are craving . These include pizza , curry , chips and the waft as well as the sizzle of bacon cooking .

One third miss the smell of unhealthy meals when they are in the midst of a health kick , and one in eight thinks junk food has a better texture than any leafy greens . And three in five think trying to eat healthily reduces the enjoyment they get out of eating .

" If you combine this with all the other misconceptions around healthy food this creates a huge barrier to eating well .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'made a career out of being versatile' involves a transitive verb 'made' with an NP object 'a career', but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The NP object 'a career' does not function as a causee, and the construction does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction as described.

It is a time of year to beg , borrow and steal in the football world , especially in England , where the January transfer window is again expected to be dominated by loan deals . Only 37 of the 178 players leaving Premier League clubs last January moved permanently and close to one in every three of the incoming signings in the top flight -- a ratio that for the second successive year was twice as high as in the summer -- joined on a temporary basis . Halfway through the season is normally short-term fix territory rather than a buyer 's market , which partly explains the prevalence of loans . Yet arguably the biggest factor is the sheer number of professionals that Premier League clubs have on their books these days and the need to find regular first-team football for as many as possible while recouping a bit of money at the same time . Read more Some players will be high-profile and out of favour -- see Jermain Defoe , who has just joined Rangers on loan from Bournemouth ; Liverpool @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's side until the end of the season ; and Chelsea 's Gary Cahill . The majority , though , will be younger players who are some way off the first team and are , in the eyes of senior figures at their clubs , neither developing in a competitive environment by playing under-23 football nor increasing their value . Playing in the EFL ticks both boxes , potentially . A spotlight shines on Chelsea for good reason when it comes to this sort of story , but a trawl through last January 's loan deals reveals that Brighton , Newcastle and Watford sanctioned more departures -- double figures in each case -- than anyone else . Chelsea , of course , already had plenty of players farmed out from the summer but the bottom line is that more and more top-flight clubs are adopting a proactive approach when it comes to the loan market . Yet despite loans being so commonplace now , the framework of the deal remains loose , right down to fundamental details such as exactly what " until the end of the season @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ finishing point -- is an area of negotiation with almost every deal given that player contracts run until 30 June and the last game of the season is usually at least six weeks earlier . At the top end that could equate to another ? 500,000 , which is a lot of money to pay somebody else 's employee to sit on the beach . It may be surprising to learn that some players not only get their wages covered in full by the club they are joining but also receive a substantial sum on top . In fact , the complaints of one Premier League player about all the time he had spent on loan earlier in his career raised a few eyebrows within his former club , given that at one stage he was happily picking up an additional five-figure sum every week , on top of his basic wage , for playing in the Championship . With more sought-after players the parent club will always expect wages to be paid in their entirety . In some cases there will also be a one-off loan fee @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out-of-favour former England international in the summer -- as well as add-ons in the event of a player helping a club avoid relegation or win promotion . That extra outlay is a price worth paying if everything comes off -- Aleksandar Mitrovic 's impact at Fulham last season is a case in point . The key word in that sentence , however , is " if " . This time last year West Brom took Daniel Sturridge on loan in the hope that he would score the goals to keep them up but because of injury they got only 116 minutes of football out of the Liverpool striker in exchange for ? 3.8m . On that same theme Crystal Palace had some fitness concerns in relation to Dominic Solanke and pulled out of signing the forward this week because Liverpool were against the idea of linking part of the loan fee to appearances . While Sturridge 's lack of game-time at West Brom was unavoidable , clubs take a dim view of managers who rarely pick a loan player . Arsenal were unimpressed when Serge Gnabry , now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ League football under Tony Pulis at West Brom a few years ago , and that sort of experience inevitably colours the response when the same club picks up the phone the following season asking for another player . One way that parent clubs try to protect themselves in that scenario is by inserting financial penalties into loan agreements requiring the other party to pay a higher proportion of wages if the player fails to make a certain number of appearances . Read more While a team 's playing style and the manager 's reputation are important considerations when loaning out younger players , contacts make a big difference too . Frank Lampard , Derby 's manager , has two Chelsea loanees and would take a third -- four from one club is the maximum in the EFL -- if Maurizio Sarri agreed to allow Ethan Ampadu out . That is understood to be unlikely as things stand . Loan rules differ in the Premier League , where @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a time . Clubs are also allowed a maximum of only two domestic loans at a time . Yet there is no limit on international loans , which means a struggling Premier League club can transform its starting XI in January without making a permanent signing . Two years ago Hull brought five players in on loan and almost survived . Business has already been brisk this time around and , as the days tick by , it will be interesting to see what becomes of players such as Everton 's Morgan Schneiderlin , Vincent Janssen at Spurs , Leicester 's Adrien Silva , Divock Origi at Liverpool and Chelsea 's Danny Drinkwater , all of whom cost a fair few quid and could do with a new home -- temporary or otherwise -- to revive their careers . |

Taking the stage at last fall 's Emmy Awards , Sandra Oh announced her intentions to speak from the heart , then preceded to deliver one of the best bits of the entire three-hour broadcast . Rather than reveal the recipient of the award for Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series , the Killing Eve actress ripped the envelope in half , explaining her actions in a panic , " I was in the moment , I got overwhelmed . " As co-presenter Andy Samberg played straight man , she wondered aloud if they should just make up a winner , handing the trophy first to Oscar runner-up La La Land and then Jeremy Park , " a guy I dated in high school . " The way she saw it , she relayed to Samberg , he could very well have won : " We lost touch . I mean , he could be doing anything . " Well , sure . Though it 's safe to say that wherever Park may be , he 's well aware of what his old girlfriend is up to . Because while she might not consider herself a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an actor fairly well-known . Oh 's Emmy back-and-forth earned the 47-year-old a co-hosting gig alongside Samberg at this Sunday 's Golden Globes ( the kick-off to award season will air on NBC at 8 p.m . ET ) . " I said yes because you were going to do it ! " she revealed in a joint interview with Samberg and The Hollywood Reporter . " Honestly , I said yes even though it was so terrifying to me , really terrifying . I just could not let this opportunity pass me by , the life experience of being this scared of something . " But these days Oh is hardly hurting for TV work . Some four years after she hung up her Grey 's Anatomy scrubs , the native of Nepean , Canada , a suburb of Ottawa , sunk her finely honed acting chops into one of her most rewarding roles yet , playing once-desk-bound MI5 operative Eve Polastri now trapped in a deadly cat-and-mouse game with an assassin in BBC America 's breakout hit Killing Eve . Just eight episodes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nod ( the first Asian woman to be honored in the lead drama actress category ) , nominations for the Golden Globes , upcoming Screen Actors Guild Awards and a whole lot of joy . " I tried to be patient and stay true to what is it that I 'm going to fall in love with ? What is it that might drive me mad ? What is it that 's going to put stuff at risk foe me ? " she explained to Vogue of carefully selecting her first major post-Grey 's role . " That is where I want to grow from . I waited until this came along . " One of three siblings born to middle-class Korean immigrants Oh Junsu , a businessman , and Jeon Young-nam , a biochemist , Oh set her sights on acting early when it became clear the ballet classes she 'd started at age four to correct a pigeon-toed stance were n't going to lead to a life as a professional dancer . It was her older sister Grace who encouraged her , pushing her towards her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ musical The Canada Goose at age 10 . At Sir Robert Borden High School , her drive -- she founded an environmental club , leading a campaign against the use of styrofoam cups , and served as student council president -- earned her a journalism scholarship to Carleton University . But much to her parents ' chagrin , she turned it down for the chance to study at the National Theatre School of Canada . " It was very , very tough , " Oh admitted on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2007 . " Because , like , you know , my parents at that time looked down on the arts .... It 's like one step above , you know , prostitution . " Michael Buckner/Getty Images The deeply religious duo , who immigrated to Canada in their twenties , had always instilled in their children " that whatever you have to do has to be good for society , " she noted . " And there just does n't seem to be -- what 's the good of being an actor on camera ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " So she vowed that if this whole foray into the arts did n't pan out , she 'd return to school . Naturally , that never happened . With her sister becoming a lawyer and her brother Ray holding a Ph.D . in medical genetics she told DeGeneres , " I 'm the only person in my family who does n't have a master 's in something . " Not that her resume is exactly barren , with her first major accolade coming before she 'd exited her teens . Flipping through an alt-weekly , her sister had spotted an ad looking for a young Asian actress to play the titular role in The Diary of Evelyn Lau , a CBC biopic focusing on the poet 's teenage runaway years that found her dabbling in prostitution and drugs . Oh traveled seven hours by bus from Montreal to Toronto , sleeping in the station ahead of her audition . When she arrived in the room , in oversized overalls and a T-shirt , " She asked for a moment to focus herself , " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lay on the floor for five minutes . Most people would have kicked her out of the room . I thought it was remarkable that at 19 she had the confidence -- and audacity to do that . " Looking back , Oh , who beat out 1,000 other women for the role , going on to win a Gemini Award ( a Canadian Emmy ) for her work , was equally impressed . " I really admire who that person was at that moment who just said , ' I do n't know what the rules are . I 'm going to lie down , ' " she recently told Vulture . " That person took her time and was unapologetic about it . " Her initial success was followed up by another win : the lead in feature film Double Happiness , which earned her a Genie Award for Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role -- the Canadian equivalent of an Oscar . " That set up the template for me , " she said . " Let 's have everything ! " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with an unimpressed agent cut her to the quick . Instantly declaring Oh was n't leading lady material , the agent cruelly advised her to consider getting plastic surgery . " It was the way that she said , ' Listen : I 'm not going to lie to you .

There 's nothing for a year , ' " Oh recalled to Vulture . " ' My best advice for you is to go back home and get famous . ' " Except , Oh , realized , she 'd already completed that part , holding a number of stage and screen credits to her name . " I had already done all I could do to get to that A level , which is star in theater , TV , film , and somehow , that was n't enough for someone to say @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ' " she shared . " There 's like a dark needle or a nail that lives at the back of all of our heads , and that 's your fear . That 's like , ' It is true . There 's nothing there .

' " Moviestore Collection/Shutterstock Finding a payphone , she called her former director Gunnarsson " and was not able to stop crying , " she told Vulture . " It just cut me at the knees . " Still , she forged on , painstakingly building a career with a long-running role as the title character 's assistant on HBO 's Arliss , a scene-stealing turn in 2001 's The Princess Diaries and parts as Diane Lane 's best friend in 2003 's Under the Tuscan Sun and Thomas Haden Church 's spurned love interest in 2004 's Sideways before becoming @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Grey 's Anatomy .

But as she wrapped the show 's ninth season in 2013 , she realized it was time for her swan song . " It just felt like I did all I wanted to do , " she told Vulture of decided to end her run after the following year . " I did n't feel like , Ugh , that 's all I can do , I 've done everything .

" ABC She 'd experienced a great bit in her personal life during that time as well -- including a marriage and subsequent divorce from filmmaker Alexander Payne , who 'd directed her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ talking about any of that .

When excerpts from her divorce papers turned up on TMZ , she declined to comment , telling Marie Claire , " I do n't listen to this stuff . I do n't see it . I tell my people I do n't want to know about it , because while rationally you might know it 's ridiculous , it can hurt your feelings . It can knock me off from being my authentic self . " As Grey 's developed into a ratings juggernaut shortly after its 2005 debut , the cast became the type of overnight stars that get written up on blogs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ eternal fashion conundrum of just who wore it better . " We had paparazzi sitting outside the gate at our little tiny studio , and people were getting followed in cars . It was bad , " casting director Linda Lowy recalled to Vulture . " I do n't really know how Sandra handled it . Probably she ran home and hid because that 's who she is . I do n't think she wants to live in the limelight like that . " Decidedly not . Never one to chase any modicum of fame , she admitted during a 2012 appearance on George Stroumboulopoulos Tonight , she was extremely choosy about the interviews she accepted . " I stepped out of doing press because it 's too big a price for me , because I just think that if you want to be an actor and if you want to be an artist , it 's like , to be known in that entire world , it throws you off your game . It throws you off what I think is really important , " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I have no idea when I stopped being an actor . I do not consider myself a celebrity . I know many actors who do n't consider themselves celebrities and I want to publicly make that statement and that differentiation . " Richard Cartwright/ABC To this day , Oh declines to get into specifics , but admits that star-making period of her life was ... interesting . " There 's a certain type of perceived success , " she shared with Vulture , " but I can also see how that causes stress , how that can cause conflict , and how that can cause people to lose their way . I experienced it as traumatic . " So after bidding farewell to Grey 's amid a heap of tears and the 250 bottles of champagne embossed with a photo of an anatomical heart ( " It was like , ' Here 's my heart in a box for a celebration , ' " she told The Hollywood Reporter ) that she handed out to every crew member , she was okay with taking a break from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to leave Grey 's and the time since then has been extremely creative -- not necessarily regarding output , but exploring the empowered place of waiting , " she shared with Harper 's Bazaar this April , shortly before Killing Eve 's debut . " It 's like , ' I 'm going to wait . I 'm going to say no . I 'm going to wait , ' because I am able and privileged at this point in my life and in my career to make choices . " Chad Buchanan/Patrick McMullan via Getty Images It was a decision she had made nearly two decades earlier " that I only want to play roles that are central to the story , " she noted . " So , I had to say no to certain things , and I had to say yes to other things . " And in between she found plenty of ways to keep herself busy .

If you are not beholden to studio A , or if you 're not beholden to a place of bills ( and I know that I am speaking from a place of privilege ) , then you can just be freer . " She felt she 'd know when she found what she was looking for and that moment came as she did a quick once-over of the Killing Eve script during a walk in Brooklyn . Though she had to make a quick clarification first . " I was talking to my agent and as I scrolled on my phone , doing a really quick pass at the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? Who am I playing ? This was a real moment for my own internalization , " she told Variety . " And my agent goes , ' Honey , it 's Eve ' -- and then I was just like , Ohhhh .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'stepped out of doing press' which does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'doing press' is a gerund phrase acting as the object of the preposition 'out of', but it does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction as defined.

Taking the stage at last fall 's Emmy Awards , Sandra Oh announced her intentions to speak from the heart , then preceded to deliver one of the best bits of the entire three-hour broadcast . Rather than reveal the recipient of the award for Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series , the Killing Eve actress ripped the envelope in half , explaining her actions in a panic , " I was in the moment , I got overwhelmed . " As co-presenter Andy Samberg played straight man , she wondered aloud if they should just make up a winner , handing the trophy first to Oscar runner-up La La Land and then Jeremy Park , " a guy I dated in high school . " The way she saw it , she relayed to Samberg , he could very well have won : " We lost touch . I mean , he could be doing anything . " Well , sure . Though it 's safe to say that wherever Park may be , he 's well aware of what his old girlfriend is up to . Because while she might not consider herself a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an actor fairly well-known . Oh 's Emmy back-and-forth earned the 47-year-old a co-hosting gig alongside Samberg at this Sunday 's Golden Globes ( the kick-off to award season will air on NBC at 8 p.m . ET ) . " I said yes because you were going to do it ! " she revealed in a joint interview with Samberg and The Hollywood Reporter . " Honestly , I said yes even though it was so terrifying to me , really terrifying . I just could not let this opportunity pass me by , the life experience of being this scared of something . " But these days Oh is hardly hurting for TV work . Some four years after she hung up her Grey 's Anatomy scrubs , the native of Nepean , Canada , a suburb of Ottawa , sunk her finely honed acting chops into one of her most rewarding roles yet , playing once-desk-bound MI5 operative Eve Polastri now trapped in a deadly cat-and-mouse game with an assassin in BBC America 's breakout hit Killing Eve . Just eight episodes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nod ( the first Asian woman to be honored in the lead drama actress category ) , nominations for the Golden Globes , upcoming Screen Actors Guild Awards and a whole lot of joy . " I tried to be patient and stay true to what is it that I 'm going to fall in love with ? What is it that might drive me mad ? What is it that 's going to put stuff at risk foe me ? " she explained to Vogue of carefully selecting her first major post-Grey 's role . " That is where I want to grow from . I waited until this came along . " One of three siblings born to middle-class Korean immigrants Oh Junsu , a businessman , and Jeon Young-nam , a biochemist , Oh set her sights on acting early when it became clear the ballet classes she 'd started at age four to correct a pigeon-toed stance were n't going to lead to a life as a professional dancer . It was her older sister Grace who encouraged her , pushing her towards her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ musical The Canada Goose at age 10 . At Sir Robert Borden High School , her drive -- she founded an environmental club , leading a campaign against the use of styrofoam cups , and served as student council president -- earned her a journalism scholarship to Carleton University . But much to her parents ' chagrin , she turned it down for the chance to study at the National Theatre School of Canada . " It was very , very tough , " Oh admitted on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2007 . " Because , like , you know , my parents at that time looked down on the arts .... It 's like one step above , you know , prostitution . " Michael Buckner/Getty Images The deeply religious duo , who immigrated to Canada in their twenties , had always instilled in their children " that whatever you have to do has to be good for society , " she noted . " And there just does n't seem to be -- what 's the good of being an actor on camera ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " So she vowed that if this whole foray into the arts did n't pan out , she 'd return to school . Naturally , that never happened . With her sister becoming a lawyer and her brother Ray holding a Ph.D . in medical genetics she told DeGeneres , " I 'm the only person in my family who does n't have a master 's in something . " Not that her resume is exactly barren , with her first major accolade coming before she 'd exited her teens . Flipping through an alt-weekly , her sister had spotted an ad looking for a young Asian actress to play the titular role in The Diary of Evelyn Lau , a CBC biopic focusing on the poet 's teenage runaway years that found her dabbling in prostitution and drugs . Oh traveled seven hours by bus from Montreal to Toronto , sleeping in the station ahead of her audition . When she arrived in the room , in oversized overalls and a T-shirt , " She asked for a moment to focus herself , " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lay on the floor for five minutes . Most people would have kicked her out of the room . I thought it was remarkable that at 19 she had the confidence -- and audacity to do that . " Looking back , Oh , who beat out 1,000 other women for the role , going on to win a Gemini Award ( a Canadian Emmy ) for her work , was equally impressed . " I really admire who that person was at that moment who just said , ' I do n't know what the rules are . I 'm going to lie down , ' " she recently told Vulture . " That person took her time and was unapologetic about it . " Her initial success was followed up by another win : the lead in feature film Double Happiness , which earned her a Genie Award for Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role -- the Canadian equivalent of an Oscar . " That set up the template for me , " she said . " Let 's have everything ! " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with an unimpressed agent cut her to the quick . Instantly declaring Oh was n't leading lady material , the agent cruelly advised her to consider getting plastic surgery . " It was the way that she said , ' Listen : I 'm not going to lie to you . A lot of people are going to lie to you . But I 've got nothing for you here . I have Suzy Kim ' -- I 'm just making up names -- ' she has an audition in like six months . There 's nothing for a year , ' " Oh recalled to Vulture . " ' My best advice for you is to go back home and get famous . ' " Except , Oh , realized , she 'd already completed that part , holding a number of stage and screen credits to her name . " I had already done all I could do to get to that A level , which is star in theater , TV , film , and somehow , that was n't enough for someone to say @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ' " she shared . " There 's like a dark needle or a nail that lives at the back of all of our heads , and that 's your fear . That 's like , ' It is true . There 's nothing there . And she 's saying that she 's not going to lie to me . Other people are going to lie to you , but she wo n't lie to you . She told the truth . Go back . ' " Moviestore Collection/Shutterstock Finding a payphone , she called her former director Gunnarsson " and was not able to stop crying , " she told Vulture . " It just cut me at the knees . " Still , she forged on , painstakingly building a career with a long-running role as the title character 's assistant on HBO 's Arliss , a scene-stealing turn in 2001 's The Princess Diaries and parts as Diane Lane 's best friend in 2003 's Under the Tuscan Sun and Thomas Haden Church 's spurned love interest in 2004 's Sideways before becoming @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Grey 's Anatomy . For 10 straight seasons , she delved into plotlines that saw her fall for her boss , get left at the altar , have an abortion and perform numerous surgeries , including one at gunpoint , and , of course , form the series ' most endearing partnership with her " person " , the titular Meredith Grey . But as she wrapped the show 's ninth season in 2013 , she realized it was time for her swan song . " It just felt like I did all I wanted to do , " she told Vulture of decided to end her run after the following year . " I did n't feel like , Ugh , that 's all I can do , I 've done everything . It was more than that . It was actually , dare I say it , a sense of satisfaction . " ABC She 'd experienced a great bit in her personal life during that time as well -- including a marriage and subsequent divorce from filmmaker Alexander Payne , who 'd directed her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ talking about any of that . While she has a tendency to offer tiny glimpses into an off-camera life during her sporadic interviews -- she 's naturally messy , describing her house to Marie Claire as " sort of explosive . Like a crazy person lives there , " loves The Simpsons and has grown into a deep spirituality after a childhood spent in churches both Korean and English-speaking -- she deliberately shuts out chatter about the most personal parts of her existence . When excerpts from her divorce papers turned up on TMZ , she declined to comment , telling Marie Claire , " I do n't listen to this stuff . I do n't see it . I tell my people I do n't want to know about it , because while rationally you might know it 's ridiculous , it can hurt your feelings . It can knock me off from being my authentic self . " As Grey 's developed into a ratings juggernaut shortly after its 2005 debut , the cast became the type of overnight stars that get written up on blogs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ eternal fashion conundrum of just who wore it better . " We had paparazzi sitting outside the gate at our little tiny studio , and people were getting followed in cars . It was bad , " casting director Linda Lowy recalled to Vulture . " I do n't really know how Sandra handled it . Probably she ran home and hid because that 's who she is . I do n't think she wants to live in the limelight like that . " Decidedly not . Never one to chase any modicum of fame , she admitted during a 2012 appearance on George Stroumboulopoulos Tonight , she was extremely choosy about the interviews she accepted . " I stepped out of doing press because it 's too big a price for me , because I just think that if you want to be an actor and if you want to be an artist , it 's like , to be known in that entire world , it throws you off your game . It throws you off what I think is really important , " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I have no idea when I stopped being an actor . I do not consider myself a celebrity . I know many actors who do n't consider themselves celebrities and I want to publicly make that statement and that differentiation . " Richard Cartwright/ABC To this day , Oh declines to get into specifics , but admits that star-making period of her life was ... interesting . " There 's a certain type of perceived success , " she shared with Vulture , " but I can also see how that causes stress , how that can cause conflict , and how that can cause people to lose their way . I experienced it as traumatic . " So after bidding farewell to Grey 's amid a heap of tears and the 250 bottles of champagne embossed with a photo of an anatomical heart ( " It was like , ' Here 's my heart in a box for a celebration , ' " she told The Hollywood Reporter ) that she handed out to every crew member , she was okay with taking a break from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to leave Grey 's and the time since then has been extremely creative -- not necessarily regarding output , but exploring the empowered place of waiting , " she shared with Harper 's Bazaar this April , shortly before Killing Eve 's debut . " It 's like , ' I 'm going to wait . I 'm going to say no . I 'm going to wait , ' because I am able and privileged at this point in my life and in my career to make choices . " Chad Buchanan/Patrick McMullan via Getty Images It was a decision she had made nearly two decades earlier " that I only want to play roles that are central to the story , " she noted . " So , I had to say no to certain things , and I had to say yes to other things . " And in between she found plenty of ways to keep herself busy . She 's reportedly been dating Andrew Featherston , a drummer in the indie band The Hereafter for the better part of a decade , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on the types of extracurriculars that provide a boon to her professional life . " I 'm a big class taker . I 'm a big workshop taker , " she said of her dedication to her art . " I do it to cultivate closeness to the craft . It transcends a lot of the bulls--t we have to deal with and it can change your point of view creatively so that you feel freer . If you are not beholden to studio A , or if you 're not beholden to a place of bills ( and I know that I am speaking from a place of privilege ) , then you can just be freer . " She felt she 'd know when she found what she was looking for and that moment came as she did a quick once-over of the Killing Eve script during a walk in Brooklyn . Though she had to make a quick clarification first . " I was talking to my agent and as I scrolled on my phone , doing a really quick pass at the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? Who am I playing ? This was a real moment for my own internalization , " she told Variety . " And my agent goes , ' Honey , it 's Eve ' -- and then I was just like , Ohhhh . I appreciated that they thought of that before I thought of it . It really , really stuck with me . " Actually , her first reaction , as she shared with the outlet was more pointed .

Spurs had won six of their previous seven matches before they were deservedly beaten by Wolves at Wembley , and Alli said the Spurs players may have been complacent after announcing themselves in the Premier League title race . " We had been in great form before that and maybe we got a little carried away with ourselves . They are a fantastic team and maybe we just thought we would win the game . " But you ca n't do that if you want to win things and be a top , top team . You have to be clinical and ruthless in every game and you ca n't afford to take your foot off the gas .

I felt in my gut it was something to do with our other daughter , Emily , and when we spoke to Amy our nightmare came true . Our beautiful , funny , crazy girl had died . Reeling , all we knew was we had to get home . Our minds raced with questions , anger and despair , and after what seemed like ages , sobbing and unable to think straight , we were ushered onto a plane to Seattle . The staff had stopped the last plane leaving the island when it was already on the runway , and put us on it . I remember standing in front of the mirror in the plane toilet , tears rolling down my face saying , ' I 'm coming Emily , ' over and over . Emily was just 19 years old When we eventually landed in London over 36 hours later , Amy , friends and family were there to meet us and we flew straight to Leeds to meet with the coroner and see Emily 's body . Emily 's friends had come to Leeds from all over @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ housemates who had found her dead when they went up to her room that morning in December 2012 to see why she had n't been at lectures and was n't answering her phone . Those poor , poor girls . My own daughter was the first dead body I had ever seen . She was 19 and had everything ahead of her . Nothing can describe the deep , wrenching loss . Since she was 14 , Emily had suffered from epilepsy , but with regular , simple medication had suffered only a handful of seizures , and even gone on to play hockey for her county . In fact , Emily 's epilepsy had been so manageable we barely gave it much thought -- but simply failing to take her tablets meant her future was gone . At 10.36pm on 3 December 2012 , she and Amy had been joking on the phone about their failed fad diets . By 10.36am the next morning Emily was dead . We finally found out the cause of her death -- Sudden Unexplained Death in Epilepsy ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ take her medication the previous night . Ripped to pieces by grief , we felt powerless -- nothing would bring Emily back , but we had to create something positive out of something so horrific . So last August while on holiday in Athens , we sat around the table to think of a way to raise money . It had to be in keeping with Emily -- fun , bonkers , flamboyant . Then we had the brainwave of a tuk-tuk -- Bharat is Indian , and a tuk-tuk driven on a massive journey , decorated in a way Emily would approve of , would attract attention . Tuk-tuk in Trier , Germany We knew to raise proper money it had to be a serious trip , so we got our maps out and thought we should go through 21 countries to reflect the number of people who die each week in the UK from SUDEP . We saw the target of Istanbul , did some calculations and , after several glasses of wine , promised we 'd make it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from the insurance , to the tuk-tuk , to food and accommodation . After some research , we purchased a tuk-tuk and learned what we 'd got ourselves into . With minimal engine power , going up the steep roads in the Alps might prove near impossible , we 'd need ear defenders to stop us going deaf from the engine noise , and there 'd be almost no room for any luggage . But it was too late now . We carried on blindly into the madcap venture , knowing how Emily would be cackling if she were still with us . We practised driving our specially decorated tuk-tuk around the local roads in Gloucestershire -- getting horn honks and waves from well-wishers . It took months to prepare : we did mechanic courses in case of a breakdown , and worked out a route , snaking through France , Holland , Austria , Bosnia & Herzegovina , Macedonia and Albania before arriving in Turkey , sticking to small roads . With the aim of raising ? 21,000 for SUDEP Action , we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ days , offers of help and accommodation along the way flooded in . The kindness of strangers was moving , and with a combination of people 's homes , local campsites and cheap hostelries , we soon had the full itinerary planned out . High over the Tolmin Gorge in Slovenia On 8 September , we set out from Notting Hill , London . Bharat , Amy , her boyfriend James and I crammed our camping equipment into Emily 's old car , which would be coming as a support vehicle . We 'd take it in turns in the tuk-tuk , with one of us driving the support car . With little suspension and exposed to the elements , it was n't the most comfortable experience . The tuk-tuk goes a maximum of 40mph , and slows down to a 5mph crawl on steep hills . But we wrapped up warmly , and it gave us time to share our memories of Emily -- it was a cathartic process . There were some funny moments , such as the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the Albanian mountains , and Bharat drove off thinking I was in the back . He chatted away for 10 minutes before he realised I was n't there -- then he had a panic and thought I 'd slid out of the tuk-tuk and tumbled down the mountain ! Sometimes things got hairy -- in strong winds , the tuk-tuk blows sideways as it 's so light , and this can be alarming . There were also unavoidable stretches on busy roads , and it was terrifying as lorries swerved ahead of us . When we reached Istanbul , a few friends and family came to meet us . Although we were proud to have made it , it felt strange to have been on a trip Emily would have loved , but that we 'd never have done if she had n't died . We 've raised ? 150,000 , but the journey was as much about raising awareness of SUDEP . Emily 's death could 've been prevented had her doctors explained SUDEP to us , as we could have put steps @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people who share our story , the more likely it is young lives will be saved . In Bosnia & Herzegovina ? 600,000 people in the UK live with epilepsy . ? Around half of epilepsy-related deaths are SUDEP. ? 42% of epilepsy deaths could be prevented with proper access to care and information . ? In the UK 52% of people with epilepsy are seizure-free. 70% could become so with the right treatment and advice . SUDEP Action has developed an app called EpSMon for people with epilepsy to manage their risk . SUDEP Action recommend using techniques like seizure diaries , medication reminders and risk-monitoring apps to help you stay aware and in control , as well as having regular medical reviews to discuss risk and any changes .

Derby County rescued a draw against Premier League side Southampton yesterday to ensure they 're present in the draw for the FA Cup fourth round tomorrow evening . The top flight side took a 2-0 lead , both goals courtesy of Nathan Redmond shortly after kick off in the first and second half . That could have rattled Frank Lampard 's men but a Jack Marriott goal , assisted by Tom Lawrence , got them back into the game . It was the Welsh attacker who levelled things moment later , a fine strike bringing parity to the score line which remained the case until the end of proceedings . Lawrence is a player who has divided opinion at times , with some fans lamenting his inconsistency , others feeling he is n't being deployed in the best position .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses the phrase 'come out of hiding', which is a different construction where 'hiding' is a noun rather than a VP[-ing] predicate. There is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the sentence does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it involves a plea for someone to come out of hiding, which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move or preventing them from doing something through specific means as described in the construction's properties. The phrase 'come out of hiding' is more literal and does not involve the semantic or syntactic characteristics of the transitive out of -ing construction.

" We will see what we do , " said Jurgen Klopp over the weekend . " But we can not , we will not sign a centre-half for one game or whatever , that will not happen . " Those sentiments may have changed on Monday night as the Liverpool boss saw his side pick up another injury at centre-half during their FA Cup third-round loss to Wolves . In a dreadful first half , Dejan Lovren provided one of the only talking points when he went down feeling his hamstring on four minutes to add insult to Klopp 's injuries . Lovren 's replacement highlighted the lack of depth at the German 's disposal with Ki-Jana Hoever making his debut to become Liverpool 's youngest-ever player in the FA Cup at 16 years and 354 days old . To make you feel really old , Liverpool played the day after Hoever was born in a 1-1 draw with Southampton . The team that day was : Dudek ; Carragher , Henchoz , Hyypia , Riise ; Murphy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . I 'm ancient , you 're ancient , we 're all ancient . Amsterdam-born Hoever signed for the Reds from the Ajax academy in September 2018 and is a Dutch under-17 international . He can be absolved of blame for their exit as the senior players in the side lacked the energy and courage to take control . The Dutchman showed a few nice touches , along with a crucial interception in the first period . Liverpool supporters would have had their hearts in their mouths on a couple of occasions , particularly in the second half when Raul Jimenez took the ball from him in the area after Hoever failed to clean up quickly enough . Luckily for the youngster , the Wolves striker could n't steady himself to get a decent shot away . Overall , though , it was a fairly ice cool performance on his debut . Other senior centre-backs Joe Gomez and Joel Matip are both currently ruled out through injury , having missed the entire festive schedule . The pair are likely to be absent for the Premier League tie @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could have them fit for Crystal Palace on January 19 . Klopp also had some more bad news ahead of the third-round tie with Virgil van Dijk missing through an injury . Klopp noted that : " Virgil can not play ; he is at home and hopefully it is nothing , but he has played all the games so far , so we had to try to find a solution for that -- and we found it , hopefully , with Fabinho . " The summer signing from Monaco was used alongside Hoever . Fabinho has operated in midfield for most of his career , although he is currently Brazil 's regular right-back . The makeshift centre-half was actually one of Liverpool 's better performers on the night and has the qualities needed to thrive in that position . That said , the Reds are now down to their bare bones with out-of-position Fabinho and a 16-year-old their only options in a key position , despite Van Dijk 's injury not sounding too serious . A ruthless finish from Jimenez gave Wolves the lead seven @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Milner -- made a mistake . He stepped on the ball on the halfway line to give Jimenez a free run at goal and the Mexican made no mistake to hand Nuno Espirito Santo 's side a deserved lead going into the break . Liverpool were their own worst enemy at times against Wolves , playing a high line and pushing full debutant Rafael Camacho and Alberto Moreno up the pitch to leave themselves exposed . If the Premier League 's ninth-placed side had found a better final ball then Liverpool would have been in further trouble before the interval . Perhaps the most startling aspect of the Reds ' performance at Molineux was their lack of attacking intent . Divock Origi and Daniel Sturridge were n't making enough meaningful runs as the ball kept bouncing back towards their disjointed midfield , while Xherdan Shaqiri and another youngster -- Curtis Jones -- lacked any creativity . Origi hit back on 51 minutes out of nothing -- the only way the Reds were going to score -- when he smashed a ball from outside the box through the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Wolves have a long-range specialist in their ranks too and Ruben Neves hammered in his own stunner just five minutes later ; it would prove to be the winner . The Reds only had nine touches in Wolves ' box all match , while they mustered one measly shot on target . Sturridge looked annoyed at being substituted when he and Jones were replaced by Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah . If that 's as good as the England international can offer nowadays then his days at the title challengers seem numbered . Clearly , the Reds will solve those attacking issues by bringing back Sadio Mane , Salah and Firmino for their next match against Brighton in the Premier League , while they are unlikely to play the rigid 4-4-2 formation used here . The major concern for Klopp will be his dwindling options in the centre of defence that could even force him to rush players back from injury . The sensible option could be to dip into the January market . Steven Caulker must be available . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The verb 'making' is transitive and selects an NP object 'money', but the phrase 'out of having an EasyProp franchise' does not involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present in the sentence.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'the prime minister' is the NP subject, 'had already pulled' is the V1, 'the vote' is the NP object, and 'holding in December' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also fits the prevention interpretation, as the prime minister prevented the vote from being held in December.

LONDON -- Theresa May 's government suffered another defeat at the hands of anti-Brexit MPs in parliament Wednesday in a move that threatens to fast-forward the expected political crisis facing the prime minister if her Brexit deal is rejected next week . After a morning of constitutional drama over parliament 's role in shaping Britain 's exit from the EU , MPs voted by 308 to 297 in favor of a controversial amendment that forces the government to come back to the House of Commons within three sitting days of losing a vote on the prime minister 's proposed exit package . Under the EU Withdrawal Act the PM has 21 days before having to return to the Commons . The government is widely expected to lose the vote , which the prime minister had already pulled out of holding in December . Following the amendment , May must , in the event of the vote being lost , return to the Commons by Monday , January 21 to give a statement to MPs on what she intends to do next . This will take @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ able to amend -- giving parliament the first real chance to set out the kind of Brexit it wants to see . In effect , it gives MPs opposed to a no-deal exit more time to work to stop Britain leaving the EU without a negotiated settlement , opening up the prospect of a change of government before Britain 's departure from the bloc . Tory backbencher Dominic Grieve said his amendment " solidifies and emphasizes the key role of parliament " in the Brexit process . " It is going to be essential in dealing with Brexit , " he said . Jacob Rees-Mogg , the leader of the backbench Brexiteer caucus the European Research Group , however , dismissed its importance . " The vote that the government has just lost does not affect Brexit . It merely requires a motion to be tabled -- not even debated . " The decision by Speaker John Bercow to allow a vote on the amendment prompted angry protests from Brexiteer MPs , mostly on the Conservative benches . They argued that permitting the vote trampled on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Commons business . In a drawn-out discussion in the chamber that delayed the start of the Brexit debate itself by more than an hour , a series of MPs raised points of order with an increasingly irritated speaker over his decision to allow a vote on the amendment . One Tory MP , Adam Holloway , directly questioned Bercow 's impartiality on Brexit matters , pointing out that the speaker has a " B*llocks to Brexit " sticker on his car . Bercow said the sticker was in fact on his wife 's car . " I 'm sure the honorable gentleman would n't suggest for one moment that a wife is somehow the property or chattel of her husband . She is entitled to her views . That sticker is not mine . That 's the end of it , " he said . Brilliant . I just hope useful idiots in the UK Parliament are reciprocated by useful idiots in the EU institutions . Please Brussels interpret these marginal anti-Brexit votes in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is against Brexit . We must not make any concessions whatsoever ' . Then both useful idiots can screw up completely when ' no deal ' happens by default . Posted on 1/9/19 3:56 PM CET Exactly who in Parliament who voted for this trying to kid ? It took 2 years to get to May 's Deal . the EU has said it will negotiate no further . So if ( as expected ) May loses the vote next week , is Parliament seriously expecting May to come up with a completely new deal in the space of 3 days ? This has nothing to do with forcing a renegotiation , and everything to do with trying to cancel Brexit . But hey , carry on Parliament -- I 'm intrigued to see what happens if you somehow manage to force a second referendum ... Posted on 1/9/19 4:36 PM CET Come back to parliament and do what ? What exactly is May supposed to do in those three days ? You have no plan B. Posted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's the Northern Ireland/Ireland backstop stupid ! Not simply ' anti-Brexit ' MP 's . No British politician or even the general public , whether voting ' IN ' or ' OUT ' of the EU will accept the current WA demands . When will the EU and Europeans in general understand that the ' backstop ' risks the integrity of the United Kingdom ? Even Sinn Fein have today come out against the WA ! So ' No Deal ' it is looking likely to be unless and until Barnier , Tusk , Junker and Merkle come to their collective senses . You can not expect the UK to simply hive off part of the UK ( Northern Ireland ) just to satisfy Ireland . And please do not bang on about a ' hard border ' and the GFA . There are already different VAT , tax and monetary regimes on the island of Ireland all dealt with currently by electronic means , and a common travel area since 1927 . Irish men and women can even serve in the British armed forces if they so wish . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @Peter Monta " Come back to parliament and do what ? What exactly is May supposed to do in those three days ? You have no plan B. " Peter things may not be what they seem . This could be a combination of cross party mps with reservations about leaving with no deal and T May and her advisors ' testing the waters ' to try to flush out who is voting which way to determine how close the vote would be next Tuesday . A belated Happy New Year to you . Posted on 1/9/19 4:49 PM CET @EU doublestandards EUd/s there is something on this on the BBC website if you are interested " https : **27;1670;TOOLONG ...

If we 're taking a strict rules based approach , the UK would then be a new applicant -- even if held in some kind of non-rules based limbo in the interim -- and it 's difficult to see an obligation to join the euro being saleable -- I doubt Germany could be sold on it if it was applying now .

Posted on 1/9/19 5:49 PM CET Finally some serious cross party discussions on Brexit are taking place to avoid a no deal Brexit . I can understand that this upsets hard Brexiteers and that some even think it was all a plot to overturn the vote . Hopefully we will now soon know what UK 's next step will be .

What 's that ? You 're not interested in negotiating a different deal ? It 's ' take it or leave it ' . So you are choosing ' no deal ' . Posted on 1/9/19 5:59 PM CET If I have your logic correctly Steu , if the EU passes the deal they have negotiated with the government of Britain , but Britain does n't then it is the EU that is rejecting the deal ? Posted on 1/9/19 6:05 PM CET @Paul N " Will mrs May quickly invite the leaders of all parties to find a way to come to a majority decision what the UK will do rather than what it will not do ? " Never thought of that although it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ finding compromises with each other and other countries is not the strength of UK . Posted on 1/9/19 6:06 PM CET EU d , Your MP 's are listening very well to you and other UK citizens . That is why they have not found a solution yet . Its like a ticking time bomb and they can not defuse it . Now they have to find a way to let it explode and keep casualties ( people that will be very angry with them ) to a minimum . Posted on 1/9/19 6:06 PM CET I bet someone will make a TV series out of this saga . Let it be in 50 years time . Posted on 1/9/19 6:08 PM CET @ Peter Monta The UK is rejecting this EU offer because of the Northern Ireland annexation backstop . It would accept a deal without this backstop , as should be blatantly obvious even to the likes of Elena Adaal . So do you want a free trade deal with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the bargain ? Or do you want no 40 billion , WTO tariffs worsening Germany 's recession , and a catastrophe in one of your smallest member states ( Republic of Ireland ) . I wonder which option you will choose . I wo n't be holding my breath ... Posted on 1/9/19 6:12 PM CET @ tpk Actually UK political parties have compromised a great deal . They legislated to hold a referendum on the UK 's membership of the EU , they agreed to respect the outcome of the referendum , they agreed to trigger Article 50 , they went into the 2017 UK General Election with the two biggest parties pledging manifesto commitments to take the UK out of the EU customs union and single market , and in August 2018 they passed the EU Withdrawal Act , guaranteeing a ' no deal ' Brexit on 29 March 2019 unless a deal is agreed with the EU beforehand . Where is the lack of compromise ? Posted on 1/9/19 6:16 PM CET Makes even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1/9/19 6:17 PM CET @Paul N -- the notification started a two-year countdown . At the moment , the UK could unilaterally withdraw the notification ( legally possible , but politically tenable ? ) , but otherwise membership ends in March . New members are required to join the euro , subject to meeting the financial tests ( which the UK had started to align with back in the ERM/Black Wednesday days . Denmark has an opt-out as an old member , but no other state does . I 'd imagine the UK as a new applicant would need to commit to join -- always a hard sell , but given the current state of the euro and national debts , harder yet . Posted on 1/9/19 6:19 PM CET Steu , The EU can not solve the problem the UK has with its neighbor , it can only try to keep the discussion between the two going , which it has done .

Posted on 1/9/19 6:30 PM CET @ Paul N The UK does n't have any problem with its neighbour ( I presume you mean the Republic of Ireland ) . It is the EU which has a problem with the Republic of Ireland . The EU has been trying to make Ireland a British rather than an EU problem by partitioning the UK . This approach has failed . Now the EU is stuck with one of its smallest member states having an open 500km border with a non-EU member , and having an international treaty obliging it effectively to minimise this border .

A lesson in humility may be fast approaching -- but a disorderly Brexit would be a cruel teacher . As so often , it will not be the worst delinquents @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ! I despair of you really I do . That is such an overworked piece of propaganda I am surprised you think anyone would actually believe it . For the sake of fairness I think you should read this by Alex King : The thinking goes that the Brexit vote was the last charge of a group of people who have not yet reconciled themselves to the end of empire , and who refuse to acknowledge that Britain is just an insignificant archipelago at the northern tip of Europe . These are the people who close their ears when they hear mention of the word ' Suez ' , who are still upset that we did n't send gunboats into Hong Kong harbour in 1997 , and view Trident as the political equivalent of Viagra . They refuse to admit that Britain is a declining force in world affairs , and indulge in mad dreams that it can once again rule the world . Dreams of a glorious past that could be lived again have blinded them to the bleak reality , that Britain 's heyday as a world @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ line of thinking has come to the fore in recent weeks , as commentators seek to explain why those who voted leave could still possibly want to leave the EU even after they 've been warned about the apparent damage it will do . Ryan Heath believes that " Brexit is the story of a proud former imperial power undergoing a mid-life crisis " and " a way for Britain to feel big again " , while Gary Younge thinks that " An image was conjured of Britain striding out of the EU in top hat and tails ... towards a glorious past . " Fintan O'Toole was even more explicit , writing that a crucial reason for Brexit was the idea of the UK 's " vertiginous fall from ' heart of Empire ' to ' occupied colony ' . " These ideas have been present in British politics for many years . Each time Britain suffers a failure of any kind on the international stage , the same quote from Dean Acheson , President Truman 's Secretary of State , is gleefully trotted out , that ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' . A large chunk of Remainers believe that the people in charge of Brexit sold implicit visions of Britain striding the world stage again , and people who for it voted swallowed it whole . What we are seeing , according to this analysis , is nothing less than the forlorn hope of a fallen empire . In his article , Younge goes on to quote what Kristian Jensen , the Danish finance minister , said last year , that " There are two kinds of European nations ... There are small nations and there are countries that have not yet realised they are small nations " , and notes that " This is Britain 's most public and painful reckoning with its size and influence in its post-colonial state " . O ' Toole reckons that " in the imperial imagination , there are only two states : dominant and submissive , coloniser and colonised . " When you have a post-colonial hammer , it turns out everything is an imperial nail . Such ideas are patronising and wholly unpersuasive to anyone who actually voted Leave @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for a better future that all they wanted was to replay Britannia 's greatest hits is unlikely to be much of a goer . But , most importantly , they 're also wrong . The last throw of the dice to try and cling on as an imperial power was in fact the decision to join the EEC , the EU 's forerunner . Even as the ' wind of change ' was blowing through Africa , Harold Macmillan was advocating Britain 's membership of the EEC as a way of ensuring unity in the pursuit of " strength in the struggle for freedom . " As Macmillan said when announcing the Government 's intention to join the EEC in 1961 , " This is a political as well as an economic issue . Although the Treaty of Rome is concerned with economic matters it has an important political objective , namely , to promote unity and stability in Europe which is so essential a factor in the struggle for freedom and progress throughout the world . " The hope was that through the EEC , Britain would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ continue playing its natural role as a global superpower , the leading actor in a theatre of nations . Acheson himself , in the same speech at West Point in 1962 where he questioned Britain 's future , said that our application to join the Common Market was a ' decisive turning point ' for modern Europe , and that a successful application would mean a " step forward of vast importance will have been taken " towards increasing European strength . This is the strange contradiction at the heart of the latest attempts to see empire at the heart of everything Britain does . Leaving the EU is apparently an attempt to relive such heady days , yet we would be leaving the very institution we joined to prolong our imperial adventure , while being consistently told that doing so would deprive us of weight and influence . The thinking seems to be that Britain 's futile attempt to increase its power by striking out alone is laughable , anachronistic and the product of imperial fantasy , but do n't worry , if you stay in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) as part of a group of former empire builders ! When it comes to imperial ambition , apparently only teamwork makes the dream work . It is also quite galling to be accused of seeking a return to empire by proponents of an institution that consistently seeks all the trappings of empire , whether that is a national anthem , a star spangled banner , or greater common defence capabilities ( read : an army ) . This is not the time or the place to conduct an in depth analysis of precisely what motivated millions of Leave voters to decide to vote to leave the EU . Some will indeed have voted for it out of a misplaced notion of the UK 's place in the world , or because they believe Britain needs a more global outlook . Others will have voted for it for the very opposite reason , out of a desire to stop the world and be left alone . But tired and complacent ideas suggesting it was for one last imperial jolly need to be consigned to the dustbin of Brexit analyses @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Paul N Stan , Something is only worth what others are willing to pay . If it does n't sell , it was too expensive . What a strange idea you have about value . A transactional idea of the WA and the political declaration is not going to get the UK anywhere . Price is only where supply meets demand . It does not say anything about the value . What is the price of sunshine and what its value ? And of clean water and clean air ? What is the value added of an employee and what is his/her salary ? What is the price of the GFA and what is its value ? What is the price of NI staying in the UK and what is its value ? What is the price of the current UK government and what is its value ?

Posted on 1/10/19 12:28 AM CET @Paul N You are playing word games with " Price is only where supply meets demand . It does not say anything about the value " You know very well the price of something is determined by the VALUE the other party puts on it .

Surely the intention of negotiations should have been an agreement that would pass through all 28 parliaments , not just the EU 's remaining members . The EU ( and Pro EU UK Government ) have designed and proposed a WA that can only be rejected by the UK parliament ( UK citizens representatives ( MPs ) .

Reasoning

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'takes the work out of cleaning' does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'cleaning' is a gerund functioning as the object of the preposition 'out of', and the sentence describes a general benefit rather than a causative action.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'kicked out of polling stations' involves a passive construction with 'out of' followed by a noun phrase ('polling stations'), not a VP[-ing] predicate.

On Thursday , the Electoral Commission ( CENI ) announced that the opposition leader Felix Tshisekedi had won the vote on 30 December . The French Foreign Minister , Jean-Yves Le Drian , told CNews : " We must have clarity on these results , which are the opposite to what we expected .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'chickened out of buying something to eat' does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'chickened out' is an intransitive phrasal verb followed by a prepositional phrase, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The new Asia Supermarket premises on Ormeau Embankment , Belfast . Picture by Mark Marlow Seamus Maloney 12 January , 2019 01:00 Asia Supermarket -- you can see what the cafe could be and hopefully they 'll be a bit braver in what they have to offer . Picture by Mark Marlow Asia Supermarket Cafe , 40 Ormeau Embankment , Belfast , BT6 8LU . 028 9032 6396 WAY back at the end of the last century , before your Facebooks and your Twitters and your smartphones and your Brexits , the Holylands area of south Belfast actually was n't all that rowdy . Certainly not the way it seems to be now , with young'ns from down the country turning the streets between Queen 's University and the Ormeau Road into a scene from Braveheart with GAA tracksuits instead of kilts and bottles of WKD instead of claymores . Maybe that 's just on St Patrick 's Day but when I was a 19-year-old sharing a house with fellow young'ns @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't recall things being quite so apocalyptic as they seem to get at least once a year now . We may have been a particularly sensible lot ( debatable ) but even the wildest nights back then never seemed to make the papers . And WKD was never involved , although that 's because it had n't been invented yet either . God , I feel old . A couple of years ago our old street really did make it into the papers -- the front of this one , as it happens -- thanks to the off-licence at the end of it and the queue stretching out the front on St Patrick 's Day morning , patiently waiting for the tools with which to get blootered . It would be rewriting history to say we did n't do our bit in swelling its coffers although , as a non-drinker in 1997 , more of my money was spent in the premises a little further along the street -- when I kept my nerve . It 's difficult to get across just how exotic the Asia @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in 1998 . Apart from the unidentifiable bags of frozen something or other there were jars and sachets and tins of all sorts of stuff that looked both amazing and terrifying at the same time . Nine times out of 10 we chickened out of buying something to eat and just left with four two-litre bottles of Coke and returned to the house for a pizza , chips , beans and the Champions League . In retrospect we missed out , although it 's pretty obvious the bozos we were would n't have had a clue what to do with the stuff had we been brave enough to buy it . Just before Christmas the supermarket opened it 's shiny , huge new premises on Ormeau Embankment , a stretch of the Lagan away from the old one . It has everything it did before , only now much more of it , actual parking and , best of all for the 39-year-old me , a cafe . It 's a no frills space , exactly what you 'd expect from a cafe in a supermarket @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ familiar enough to make sure no-one turns on their heels with nothing but a two-litre bottle of Coke to show for it . So , there are breakfast bagels and quiches beside rice noodle salads and skewers of satay chicken . There 's also a space where banh mi -- the fantastic Vietnamese/French mash-up baguette -- used to be before they sold out so another fusion sandwich is suggested instead . The bulgogi beef focaccia feels very Italian with its bread , fried peppers and onions and cheese , though its main ingredient is thin slices of Korean marinated beef . Whatever it is it tastes great , as does the noodle salad , bright and fresh with the crunch of peanut and pepper . A special of curry chicken noodles was a big , sweet , gentle hug of a bowl , topped with skewers of moist meat . The rice noodles , like those in the salad , were perfectly cooked , in a brothy sauce packing plenty of flavour without taking the spice level much beyond mild . Pak choi and red and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Still , on a dirty , rainy day it was a welcome plate of comfort . A Malaysian chicken curry pie -- brought home in the interests of comprehensiveness -- was good but not great , as were the char siu puffs , which you get two of for ? 4.25 . That 's a generous portion but the barbecue pork inside the flaky pastry was a little underwhelming . Maybe that was the problem -- that I was too ready to be overwhelmed , just the way I had been two decades ago . So , while everything made for a tasty lunch and a bit more , that 's as far as it went . But you can see what it could be and hopefully they 'll be a bit braver in what they have to offer -- and bozos like us will reward them for it . |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'Death' is the NP subject, 'having been cheated' is the V1, 'some souls' is the NP object, and 'securing' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also fits the prevention interpretation, as Death is prevented from securing some souls due to being cheated. The verb 'cheated' falls under the category of means by deception or trickery, which is appropriate for the construction. The NP object 'some souls' functions as a causee in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'securing'. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

New Line Cinema , now a subsidiary of WarnerMedia , is attempting to cheat death one more time and bringing back the Final Destination franchise . Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan , writers of four of the Saw movies , will pen the script . The Hollywood Reporter first reported the news . The first Final Destination film debuted back in 2000 and told the story of a group of high school students who elect not to board a plane to Paris after one of them has a premonition the plane will explode mid-air and kill everyone aboard . The plane does explode . Unfortunately , Death having been cheated out of securing some souls does whatever it can to kill the remaining would-be plane explosion victims . The original film was very successful , taking in $112 million on a $23 million budget . That James Wong-directed movie spawned a very successful franchise featuring four more films in which characters would be killed in increasingly creative and ridiculous ways . The most recent Final Destination @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The franchise even spun off into a series of novels and comic books as well . The announced film will be the sixth in the series but it will not be sequel nor feature any characters from the original films ( most of whom are dead anyway ) .

" The Final Destination premise is so easily applied to any storytelling formula that this is one of those instances that a " re-imagining " sounds perfectly valid . The writers , Melton and Dunstan , were the winners of Project Greenlight season 3 and wrote Saw installments IV , V , VI , and 3D . They also wrote the script for the upcoming children 's horror book adaptation Scary Stories To Tell in the Dark . It 's no wonder that Warner Bros. wants to bring Final Destination back . Horror has always been a pretty easy avenue for profits and that 's as apparent now as ever . Movies like Get Out and Bird Box have generated enormous profits and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ WarnerMedia should be as aware of this as anyone , having produced the enormously successful Conjuring series and Stephen King adaptation It . |

Somehow out of a game that nearly drowned in nothingness , Dundee United wrenched away three points and are right back in it when it comes to the race for automatic promotion from the Championship . It had looked a sure thing that they were going to again squander an opportunity to close the gap at the top afforded them by Ross County and Ayr United 's fit of the jitters . But then , with only nine minutes left , substitute Nicky Clark did what former players so often do against their old club -- bag the winning goal . It was pretty tough to take for Dunfermline in all sorts of ways , let alone Clark coming back to haunt them . The post-Allan Johnston era began with a solid enough display under new head coach Stevie Crawford , although excitement was all but non-existent . United manager Robbie Neilson is in the process of wheeling and dealing in the transfer market as he tries to inject some consistency and momentum into his side 's promotion challenge but he was refreshingly realistic about it being a work in progress on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It 's a big three points for us , " he reflected . " I think we 'll all agree that it was n't a great performance but sometimes to win titles you just have to grind it out . I 'd prefer to put on a bit of a show , enjoy it and score more goals . But it was n't to be today . " What morsels of positives that could feasibly be gleaned from an otherwise dreadfully dull opening 45 minutes fell the way of the visitors . Despite the upheavals of the preceding days they looked cohesive , particularly at the back where they comfortably dealt with United 's feckless attempts to find a way through . At the other end the Fifers carried a bit of a threat and were not unwilling to have a go but their final ball and attempts on goal were little better than the hosts ' . A James Vincent effort that was wayward after some decent play on the right by Myles Hippolyte was about their best . Near perfect symmetry was offered by United 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ heading weakly into Lee Robinson 's arms . Neilson started to shuffle his pack at the interval , withdrawing Matthew Smith and introducing January transfer window recruit Aidan Nesbitt . Further changes followed by both sides but for a long spell it was just more of the same . Formless stalemate , more wholehearted but scrappy defending and a smorgasbord of misplaced passes and misunderstandings between team-mates . Safranko managed to draw a decent save from Robinson with a ground shot , while Hippolyte toiled admirably to make something happen for the Pars . There was not an end in sight to the soreness inflicted on the eyes when out of nothing Nesbitt made his presence count , delivering a decent cross and Clark lost his marker to flash a header into the net . There was as much relief as jubilation around Tannadice -- only at the full-time whistle did the United fans acclaim a result ground out of hard labour . " It 's a sore one , " observed Crawford . " Possibly we could have created a few more chances in the second @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sessions with them -- it 's been an unsettling week . " |

Decluttering has never been so on-trend . It 's so buzzy Netflix even has a series following one of its Japanese gurus . But it 's about more than a perfectly-folded wardrobe . Vicky Allan lets Mio Shudo , an Edinburgh-based expert into her home and discovers why less is more WHEN she visits our home , one of the first questions that decluttering expert Mio Shudo asks my husband and I , is whether we want to " keep " each other , as if we were potential clutter . " So , Vicky , " she says , jokingly , " will you keep , Andy ? " It 's a question , I suspect , designed to ignite the kind of feelings we should be looking for as we consider each object in our decluttering journey . Love is a key word for Shudo . When you consider whether to keep each object @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you " one hundred percent love it or not " . So , to get into the groove , we begin with a question about love . I had n't expected this to be one of the first I would be asked , and I have to admit that lurking in the back of my mind is a previous interview I did with a decluttering expert . That woman had told me that some years ago she began to declutter her house using the method created by guru Marie Kondo -- an approach in which one decides whether to keep an object by holding it up and asking whether it gives you a spark of joy . She went through the objects in her household , sorting and disposing , until finally she came to her husband and decided that he did not give her that spark of joy . She then packed the car with her children and a few possessions and drove off . The story had left me with a mild terror around decluttering . What if one of us were to throw the other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bin bags of unread books , uncomfortable clothes and useless gadgets ? We have , after all , our ups and downs , like most couples . What if we were to declutter on a not " one hundred percent " day ? Fortunately that 's not what happens . We look at each other , a little awkwardly , as if taken by surprise , but it seems as good a moment as any , here , at the bottom of our stairs , to do what is effectively a renewal of our vows . " I will , " comes easily . Shudo was recommended to me by a friend , who was already well into his own declutter process and heading towards a seriously minimalist life . He 'd asked me if I had a clutter problem . I replied that I did n't know where my clutter ended and I began . It may have been a mild exaggeration , but , truth be told , one key issue in my marriage and household , has been clutter , and I 'm the worst @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Andy is n't really so very much better . Decluttering has been a zeitgeist activity for many years now , but , with the arrival this month on Netflix of Tidying Up , a series that follows Marie Kondo , creator of the Konmari method and author of Spark Joy , as she helps various households , there 's an extra buzz around it . Edinburgh-based Shudo 's approach shares a great deal with Kondo 's -- it 's all about considering items , and asking how they make you feel , before allocating them to piles to keep , throw , or maybe keep . There 's a bit of ritual and thanking of objects . There 's also a lot of origami-style folding of clothing involved . So much folding , in fact , that my friend , after I 'd started the process , texted me to ask , " Are you folding the f*** out of everything yet ? " But Shudo 's method is also subtly different from Kondo 's . She calls it " For the love of less " and says @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whether something sparks joy -- comparing it to the feeling that one has holding a puppy -- Shudo asks whether you feel love . Her philosophy is also not just about getting rid of stuff -- it 's about shifting towards a life of less . " Fu-ai-ho " , meaning , " fear , love and abundance of nothingness " , is the Japanese expression she uses to describe her philosophy . She distinguishes it from the Japanese declutter tradition that most people follow , which is called Danshari , meaning refuse , separate and dispose . " My approach is much more positive . We are focussing on love and being in love with your life and your world and decluttering process is to achieve that . " But what , I ask , is the difference between the love she speaks of and Kondo 's " joy " ? " Joy , " she says , " is one aspect of love and love is deeper and broader . Marie Kondo is great at the process of decluttering , but what I 'm focussing on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for our life , but also for the whole planet by more consideration for the environment . Materialism and consumerism are creating a violence for our world -- not only for the humans but also for the animals . " The first room we poke a nose into is the office I share with Andy . On the wall , above the piles of paper and between bookcases over-flowing with books , is a painting which incorporates the word chaos , and the mathematical formula for it . Is it okay , we ask , to leave it on the wall ? " Yes . I think so , " she says . " I think it could be the good message that we observe the chaos , but you two are not in it . " We move on quickly to the wardrobe upstairs , which is the first space we are going to work on . I do feel slightly embarrassed about my mess , but , I also think I should n't feel that way . No one should feel shame over a bit of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ much of my life I 've enjoyed time spent in relatively cluttered spaces . I grew up in one , and always felt that a certain amount of stuff was what came with a busy creative life . Yet , people obviously do feel shame . I noticed that frequently , in Marie Kondo 's Tidying Up , those decluttering their lives in front of the camera , can be heard saying that they feel embarrassed or even " mortified " . As I go through this process , I 'd like to avoid that . But , at the same time , I do feel it would be useful to move on from the mess . I have had the feeling in recent years that too much of my life was getting sucked into looking for things , too often there was so much stuff on my desk that I would choose to work at the kitchen table rather than there . Shudo gets me to pull everything out from my wardrobe -- the whole tangle of jumpers , T-shirts and dresses which I 've stuffed onto @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . From there , I start dividing . One pile to keep , one maybe and one to verbally " thank " and throw out or pass on . What is wonderful is that in her company you feel no judgement . I have no idea what she thinks about the individual objects I hold up , stare at , then choose a pile for . All I know is that she does a lovely encouraging clap every time you get rid of something significant . " Well done , Vicky . You are so brave . " One thing becomes clear very quickly . My wardrobe contains many things that I have loved dearly but have literally worn to death -- shoes with holes so large they are unfixable , a leather jacket that looks as if it has been dragged along a gravel track , boots that smell of dead rat . Then there are other items , almost never worn , some still with price tags . I tell Shudo that most of these are gifts from my mum , who is a wonderful @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ things , but also quite a few that I do n't wear . She smiles with delight . " Wow . Beautiful mother . How lucky you are , " she says . " Such beautiful love . You can suggest to her a way of giving you present , for example , instead of clothes , something towards holidays or day trip somewhere , or weekends . If you have a conversation like I 'm trying to reduce my stuff . We 're trying to keep minimum stuff in the house . " She adds that research by the Cornell University professor found that experiential purchases brought people more happiness than material purchases . Then there are the clothing items from loved ones who have passed away -- my grandmother , my brother , a dear friend . I hold in my hands a T-shirt , worn by my brother on a fun run , months before he was taken abruptly from the world by a pulmonary embolism three years ago . It seems to me I still feel his physicality there in that fabric . I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ca n't really bring myself either to thank it or say that I love it . Both of those options seem too painful . I know the T-shirt is not my brother , the person I love , yet I ca n't bring myself to let it go . Shudo , as if sensing something , suggests we fold it up nicely and put it on the shelf . She teaches me to fold . Folding is , it seems , the second part of the process , and at the heart of a storage system where you can see everything , where you need not waste moments in the search for an item . " You will enjoy folding every night after you have worn the clothes . And we will fold everything . Even underwear . " We fold my brother 's T-shirt in on itself into a neat rectangle . There is something about seeing the T-shirt there , perfectly folded , at the end of the line of my own tops , not forgotten in a chaotic nest of fabric , that seems more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ no doubt that a declutter is an emotional journey . It seems to me that at the heart of it is grief -- not only the grief felt for those loved ones lost along the way , but for our past selves , our children 's babyhood , our own lives before children . Another item comes down onto the floor , a whole case from the cupboard above . It contains , in fact , only one piece of clothing , one , which I tell Shudo , I had been thinking about before she came . It 's a ridiculous pink ballgown that I wore for the fancy dress party at which I got together with Andy . I was 35 , celebrating my Halloween birthday with a kind of Dickensian party which I called Mis Havisham 's Tea Party Of The Undead , and wore a grey wig and horror make-up . We ran around outside in Holyrood park . The bottom of the dress got stained with a layer of mud . It was trashed , and , two babies later , my body can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I have kept it . Shudo offers a suggestion , perhaps I could put the dress on and have a photograph taken in it , maybe with Andy . " You 're joking . It would n't meet , " I said . Instead , we agree that I will hold it up in front of me and we will have a shot taken of the two of us together . It feels like a second renewal of vows -- I keep him , he keeps me , but we throw this , the dress , away -- and before I know it , it is squeezed into a bin bag . One of Shudo 's tips is that once bagged up you must get your thanked and discarded items out of the house as quickly as possible , and certainly within 24 hours , so it is gone by the end of the night -- all that 's left a picture on my phone . Three bin bags accompany it out the door , those ones to the charity shop . Shudo grew up in rural Japan @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ organised society " -- at schools children learn to clear up after their activities . Her parents , she says , are " very minimalist " . " Their house is very simple , for example bit of grass matt on the floor and one big table and maybe seasonal flowers in a vase , and maybe calligraphy , that 's it . " As a teenager she did n't appreciate so much what her mother taught her , but when she left Japan at the age of 20 to go to America , where she studied performing arts , she started to reconnect with it . She is now a master of the tea ceremony , a title it took her 20 years of training to earn . Zen is at the heart of her philosophy . One of the things she talks frequently about is " an abundance of nothing " . I have to admit that the first time she used that phrase I felt a pang of terror . But she is keen to make clear that this is a good place . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ everything . Releasing our attachment to something automatically makes us reunite with the whole universe . " . There have , recently , been plenty of people out to dismiss Konmari and other decluttering processes , either as a frivolous trend or the privilege of the wealthy . But what 's clear is that people are drawn to decluttering philosophies because they address the problems of our consumerist world . Shudo is not interested in creating space so that we can create for ourselves a trendy minimalist look , or fill it up with new fast fashion or plastic junk . She is about providing a journey through which , she says , it 's possible both to find our " authentic selves " while using less . What becomes clear is that what I have started is a long process . The friend who encouraged me , for instance , tells me that he has read of a Japanese minimalist who took five years to declutter his life . It 's the next stage , says Shudo , after the purifying , that is key . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , harmonised with love , and look into the future , you will probably start to consider more what to buy and selecting better , and so in that way of looking there will be ongoing process of maintaining intelligent buying . " That all sounds very alluring . A lot of " fu-ai-ho " does . I 'm also thrilled to have some origami-like folding skills to teach my children and a surprisingly enjoyable activity to do with my husband , one which feels like it will bring us together . In the whole process , there is , for me only one moment of regret , and it is a brief one . Later , when Shudo was gone , I could n't stop thinking about the pink ball gown . This was mainly because , instead of putting it with the charity items for recycling , I had put it in the bin , thinking it was too trashed to be of use to anyone . So , I went down in the dark to the skip and peered into its reeking shadows , hoping to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ my dress at the bottom , beneath piles of wooden planks and oozing binliners , too hard to reach . Only then , in fact , did I really decide that it truly was time to let it go . That dress had served me well . I could release it to the universe with thanks .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes making a career from a certain activity, which is not the intended meaning of the construction.

When British conspiracy theorist Max Spiers died suddenly in Poland in 2016 , it was n't surprising that his community of fellow sleuths and UFO hunters thought it was suspicious . Soon after his death , rumours of " black liquid " emerging from his body spread across the internet . Spiers , 39 , had made a career out of investigating alleged government cover-ups of UFO sightings . Hewas well known , spoke at conferences , and believed there was a secret underground alien base in New Mexico that used children for their " pure energy " . That summer in 2016 , he had travelled to Warsaw to talk at a conference about " secret military programmes " . There he met a woman , Monika Duval , 50 , who he soon moved in with . But two months later , however , Spiers was texting his mother claiming he feared being murdered and urging her to " investigate " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her home on 16 July 2016 . But after his death , the Polish authorities did n't carry out a post-mortem , and his family were told that he had died of natural causes . In the absence of a full investigation , many in his immediate circle claimed extra-terrestrial involvement in his death , or governmental mind control , or the involvement of a satanic cult . For his mother , Vanessa Bates , the long-awaited inquest has brought a sense of closure , after she fought hard for an investigation into her son 's death . But for members of the conspiracy theory community in which Spiers made his name , the inquest has simply deepened the mystery as to what happened to him . SWNS Vanessa Bates , pictured at her son 's grave , says the findings of the three day inquest have given her a sense of closure According to evidence presented at the inquest , Spiers and Duval had become lovers , travelling together on holiday to Cyprus with Duval 's teenage daughter . While there , Duval bought a pharmacy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the anti-anxiety drug Xanax at Spiers 's request , after he realised it could be obtained without a prescription . Spiers was found to have taken about 10 of the tablets on the day he died . Spiers had a long-standing problem with drugs . Originally from Canterbury , he had developed an addiction at the age of 18 after being prescribed opioids following a traffic accident . It was also revealed that Spiers , who was a former classmate of the Hollywood actor Orlando Bloom , had been addicted to heroin and crack cocaine . Duval , who had attempted to resuscitate Spiers after he stopped breathing , said she had noticed he often felt ill while staying with her and that " sometimes he felt weak and had problems with focus and attention . " She said he had once spent a day in a deckchair in her garden " unconscious . " She added : " I would have done anything to save him , I really cared about him . I was deeply in love with him , " she told the inquest @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interest of other conspiracy theorists it was the wholly incompetent initial investigation into his deathChristopher Sutton-Mattocks , Coroner His mother told coroner Christopher Sutton-Mattocks her son 's final message to her said : " ' If anything happens to me , look into it , investigate . ' He even said : ' I think I might be murdered ' . I really think , standing back from it now , that he was just getting himself in more and more of a state . " Sutton-Mattocks fiercely criticised the Polish police for their " wholly incompetent " handling of Spiers 's death , which saw his body left overnight in the property in which he died after the paramedics left , with no examination and no investigation launched . The coroner said : " Max was a conspiracy theorist and a well-known one at that . If there was anything bound to excite the interest of other conspiracy theorists it was the wholly incompetent initial investigation into his death .

" He was a weaponised system to be engaged in with some kind of warfare , " claims Johnston . In the immediate aftermath of his death , Johnston told BBC Radio Four Spiers had been working to expose " enemies within other realities .

" Spiers 's former girlfriend Sarah Adams remembers things differently . Shortly after his death , she told The Sun he had been held against his will in Poland , in a house surrounded by electric fencing . She claimed that he had wanted to come back to England to marry her , and have a child . " He rang me secretly because they would n't let him talk to me .

Pope , who is often accused of being part of a government cover-up aimed at hiding the truth about UFOs , calls the theories which sprang up following the death of Spiers " unfortunate , erroneous , but entirely predictable " , branding the individuals within the community which continue to perpetrate such beliefs as " enablers " . " The theory in the conspiracy theory community seems to be that he was assassinated by the powers that be , for getting too close to some truth or truths that the Illuminati , the New World Order -- or whoever today 's bad guys happen to be -- did n't want revealed .

The conspiracy theorists will deny them this. ? Nick Pope Nick Pope used to run the British Government 's UFO project at the Ministry of Defence . He sys the conspiracy theories which sprang up following the death of Spiers are " entirely predictable " Karen Douglas , professor of social psychology at the University of Kent , studies the beliefs within conspiracy theories and agrees with Pope that the findings of the inquest will simply fuel further rumours about Spiers 's death . She studies demographic variables such as levels of education , age , and whether believers are part of minority groups in the perpetration of conspiracy theories around topics such as anti-vaccinators and climate change sceptics . " Often what happens in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on a conspiracy and anyone who endorses these ideas , including medical professionals , will also be seen in that light .

" It will just be another piece of information to feed into a bigger conspiracy theory ; they 'll see it as evidence in support of one , rather than evidence against it . " Indeed , Pope has found it almost impossible to dissuade people who hold such deeply entrenched beliefs . " I ca n't recall a single instance where I 've discussed anything whether it 's the Moon landings , JFK , 9/11 or Princess Diana and someone has turned around and said ' you know , I 've never thought of that ' .

" There is a sense of relief in knowing the full extent of her son 's poor physical health , she added : " The pneumonia was clearly a massive aspect of his death , which I had n't realised . In a way , it was good to know that . " |

After taking home Best British Film at the London Surf Film Festival last year , the critically acclaimed : Surf Girls Jamaica is now available to view online . The documentary tells the story of Imani Wilmot and her efforts to transform the lives of Afro-Carribean women through surfing . It was created , in collaboration with Imani , who is herself a filmmaker , by Cornwall based production company The Right To Roam , made up of duo Joya Berrow and Lucy Jane . Joya and Lucy grew up in Dorset and Wales respectively , in rural settings fringed by the sea , spawning a love for the natural world that has formed the basis of their filmmaking . Their first major project ' Away With The Land ' focussed on a Scottish crofter , who has dedicated his life to an eighteenth-century farming tradition in symbiosis with the soil . Then , last autumn they released ' Every True Person Of Kalofer Without Freedom Ca n't Live ' which documented the annual harvest in a Bulgarian rose valley . Each @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shaped by their unique interactions with the natural world . Earlier this week we caught up with the pair to talk about their goals for their new film , the lack of diversity in mainstream surf media and the abundance of interesting stories in developing surf cultures . What do you hope to inspire through your films and filmmaking philosophies ? L : I would say that our mission is based on the principle that nature is a therapy , and we feel that filmmaking is a medium that can challenge how removed people have become from it . We think nature should be accessible to everybody , but it 's not , and we want to use film to try and do something about that . In the context of this particular film , we 're both surfers , and the genre of surf film is one I 've loved and wanted to explore for a long time . With this project , we see a space to use the film as a tool to send out a strong message to the surf community . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for nine months in 2017 , where one day we found ourselves filming the Colombian national surf championships for a hostel company . While at the event , we realised there was a massive community of surfers around the world who were being completely ignored by the mainstream surf media . I was looking online and thinking surely there must be something we can do to bring this situation to light and eventually I found an article about Imani . When I found out about her work I thought this needs to be told , it could positively impact and inspire so many people . For me what she 's doing is the blueprint for how one person can make a difference to the people around them , but also the global industry , and that 's one thing we all need to remember ; that it 's worth doing whatever we need do to make a change , because it 's possible when you set your mind to it ! Can you tell us a bit about the Jamaican surf scene ? L : The Jamaican @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ community . There 's no surf shops or commercialised elements of the industry yet . It 's just the strength of the Wilmot family , who have set up the Jamaican Surfing Association and surfing competitions like the Makka Pro . They have managed to reach out to people and get a quiver of a couple hundred boards , which are held at the Jamnesia Surf Camp and anyone can have access to . Imani , her brothers and extended family all offer classes at no cost to some and a greatly subsided rate to others , because they see the value of empowering the locals to get into surfing . In a lot of places where there is a big established surf scene , people romanticise the days before it existed . Did you get the sense in Colombia / Jamaica they are rushing towards that without thinking about what they might be giving up ? L : They totally love and value how it is now , and when they competed internationally , people admired the Jamaican team because they had a completely different way of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to competitions . That 's the unique energy they have passed on and built within their surf community . However , there 's always the other side , which is that it 's much more difficult to make a living out of surfing when based in a more remote surf community such as Jamaica . " For me what she 's doing is the blueprint for how one person can make a difference to the people around them , but also the global industry , and that 's one thing we all need to remember ; that it 's worth doing whatever we need do to make a change . " Do you feel that brands have a responsibility to represent more than just a narrow slither of elite level surfers in their marketing campaigns , or is that asking too much of them as commercial entities essentially just focussed on selling product ? L : Absolutely they have a glaring responsibility and it 's essentially at their own loss because they 're missing out on a massive audience . If all we 're talking about is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of people in their advertising , they are losing business . Most importantly , there 's a necessary and increasing pressure on brands to show a major level of social responsibility and I think as consumers we 're much more interested in buying from brands who demonstrate that . So why not be that first brand to show an interest in portraying a diverse array of surfing athletes ? " I think surfing helped to liberate me and help me gain back some level of oneness with myself , " says Mel , one of the women Imani encouraged into the water for the first time . Frame : @therighttoroamfilms Generally , the people who brands look to sign are either competitively successful or have already built up their own massive followings on social media . Do you think that could be an empowering tool for people in these developing surf communities ? J : I think it 's quite unrealistic to think that 's going to work out in these situations . You need a combination of forces working together to achieve sponsorship , to travel @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ something that would take huge amounts of dedication to do this alone , especially when you are struggling to identify and see role models for yourself within the global surf industry . L : A great example of someone who has dedicated themselves to using social media as a tool to make the change that they want to see in the world of surfing is Rhonda Harper founder of Black Girls Surf . The organisation runs an empowerment and development surf camp for Black girls wanting to pursue professional surfing . She has had to invest her life savings into supporting these athletes to make it work and that is not sustainable . Hopefully , the film will connect more surfers to filmmakers , who will also see more of their responsibility as visual creators and the role they can take in this argument . New visuals open new doors ! " Teaching your kids to surf is a special thing . " wrote Billy Wilmot in an article in Surfer mag . " You know how much they 're going to enjoy the first time they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who gave them that experience . That 's a special feeling , knowing that you 're the one who showed them what surfing is . " Frame : @therighttoroamfilms Do you think there 's anything unique to surfing that made it particularly empowering for the women in the film ? L : Billy Wilmot , Imani 's father says , when you surf , your eyes are taken from whatever they 're being distracted by -- the noise , corruption , discrimination , or general daily setbacks -- and turns you towards the horizon . This horizon is open , and it 's a space where anything is possible . J : These women cross a boundary when they pass from land to sea . A space where they can go and look into themselves , removed from the burden of the negative impact of the Jamaican patriarchy . They are alone , with a powerful sisterhood in tow , paddling towards the horizon , overcoming fear and looking towards infinite possibility . |

Hundreds of young apprentices dropped out of their studies and employment following the collapse of construction giant Carillion , new figures confirm . Some 163 construction trainees left education , employment and training altogether after Carillion was declared insolvent , despite a ? 3million government effort to keep them in work . A further 149 left their education programme to look for other work elsewhere . The figures from the Construction Industry Training Board ( CITB ) , obtained by HuffPost UK , reveal that 70% of Carillion 's 1,148 apprentices were moved to alternative programmes or jobs . Many of those assumed to have dropped out could not be contacted by the CITB , which is linked to the Department for Education , following the collapse . Carillion -- which struggled under a mounting debt pile -- was believed to be " too big to fail " before it went under a year ago in January 2018 .

" The mystery is not that it collapsed , but that it lasted so long , " they said at the time of its collapse . Most of Carillion 's contracts have since been taken on by its rivals . The government was expected to spend around ? 3m to find new work for the apprentices affected , according to the National Audit Office . Trade unions said the fact young workers were in fact affected shows the " direct human misery " caused by the firm 's demise . Unite 's assistant general secretary , Gail Cartmail , said : " These are really important figures as they demonstrate the direct human misery and loss of talent caused by Carillion 's collapse . " At a time of acute and growing skills shortages in the construction , the loss of any apprentices further severely weakens the industry and undermines its future . " The government is the construction industry 's largest customer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ jobs could not be found for over 300 displaced Carillion apprentices . " These figures further underline that the government failed to protect the innocent victims of Carillion 's collapse and that it is has not learnt the lessons from the biggest corporate failure in the UK in modern times . " Deborah Madden , of the CITB , said : " While not every apprentice was redeployed , and in fact some chose to leave construction , the fact that industry came together to help shows that there is a strong commitment to training in construction . " Together we secured this important pipeline of talent and gave over 900 individuals the opportunity to continue in their chosen career . " Meanwhile , Unite is stepping up calls for a criminal investigation into Carillion on the first anniversary of the group going out of business . An ongoing investigation into Carillion 's collapse by the government 's Insolvency Service could see the company 's directors banned from leading businesses . The report by the Official Receiver is expected to be published later this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ taking enough action to ensure there was n't another " corporate meltdown " at Carillion .

Former British Cycling and Team Sky doctor Richard Freeman will face misconduct charges brought by the General Medical Council ( GMC ) at an independent tribunal starting on February 6 in Manchester . The tribunal , which is scheduled to run until March 5 , will hear claims Dr Freeman ordered large quantities of testosterone , a performance-enhancing drug banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency ( WADA ) , to be delivered to the National Cycling Centre in May 2011 but then repeatedly tried to cover his tracks when questioned about it . According to pre-hearing information published by the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service , the GMC claims Dr Freeman obtained the 30 sachets of Testogel , a topical treatment , " to administer to an athlete to improve their athletic performance " . For exclusive articles , events and an advertising-free read for just ? 5.99 ? 6.99$9.99 a month With an Independent Minds subscription for just ? 5.99 ? 6.99$9.99 a month Without the ads -- for just ? 5.99 ? 6.99$9.99 a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' Jiffy bag scandal ' , Dr Freeman resigned from British Cycling in October 2017 after he told the organisation he was too ill to face disciplinary action for poor medical record-keeping . Dr Freeman , who published a book on sports medicine last year , has denied all doping charges in the past but this tribunal has the potential to throw a dark shadow over British cycling 's golden decade . Freeman was set to be a key witness in Jess Varnish 's employment tribunal last month but pulled out of giving evidence ( Getty ) As well as the allegations surrounding the Testogel delivery , the tribunal will also hear claims that Dr Freeman " inappropriately provided medical treatment that did not constitute first aid to non-athlete members of staff " . The former Bolton Wanderers doctor has made no secret of the informal private practice he ran for members of staff at the National Cycling Centre in Manchester but he has been accused of not informing the general practitioners of three patients about what drugs he was giving them . And like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ keep appropriate records , particularly in relation to prescription-only medication , and that he compromised patient confidentiality when his laptop was stolen whilst on holiday in Greece in 2014 . But it will be the allegations surrounding the Testogel delivery that threaten to be most damaging for Dr Freeman 's future career as a doctor and - by implication - the reputations of every recent rider on the Great Britain Cycling Team and Team Sky . According to the pre-hearing information , when Dr Freeman was first asked about the delivery by a fellow member of staff , he denied ordering the Testogel and said it must have been a mistake by the supplier . But a week after the delivery , it is claimed he denied making the order and said it must have been a mistake by the company involved , the Oldham-based Fit4Sport Limited .

Later , when questioned about the delivery by UK Anti-Doping in 2017 , it is claimed Dr Freeman lied when he claimed it was for a member of British Cycling 's staff , and not a rider , and that it had been returned to the supplier . Press Association Sport understands that Dr Freeman , who has struggled with depression since 2016 , has been working as a GP for much of the last year and he intends to fight for his career . That said , it should be pointed out that he failed to appear before a parliamentary inquiry into the Jiffy bag issue in December 2016 , pulled out of several interviews with UKAD and did not show up to give evidence on behalf of former GB track sprinter Jess Varnish at her employment tribunal in December .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('Trust Fallout 76 to take the fun out of launching a nuclear weapon'). It involves a prevention interpretation, where 'Fallout 76' (the subject) is causing the object 'the fun' to be prevented from 'launching a nuclear weapon' by means of 'taking'. The NP object 'the fun' is not a causee, but the sentence still fits the transitive out of -ing construction due to its structural and interpretative properties.

Trust Fallout 76 to take the fun out of launching a nuclear weapon . To get into to the launch site I had to get a keycard from a flying cargobot by shooting it for about 30 minutes ( halfway through I got mobbed by ghouls on a golf course , and when I looked up the drone had recovered all its health ) , which gained me entry to what turned out to be a megadungeon full of angry robots and turrets . The turrets were hackable , but only if you 've lucked into the right perk cards to have maxed out that skill . I could have brought a gang of allies with me , but it turns out doing so actually increases the number of robots you have to fight , making it even more of a slog . It was not a joyous experience , is what I 'm saying . Deep inside that nuclear complex , low on ammo and swinging a melee weapon at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I realized how far I was from the fun I 'd had at the start of Fallout 76 . The area around Vault 76 is called The Forest . Beyond it there are radioactive wastelands , swamps , and mountains of ash , but the starter area is leafy and autumnal . It looks more alive than any other place I 've been in a Fallout game . You still should n't drink the water or befriend the mole rats , but with the light filtering between the trees and reflecting off your Pip-Boy it 's a nice place to just wander through . And it 's worth looking closer at . My first time in The Forest I did n't notice the moonshine still that had been taken over by mutant tics , the crashed vertibird half buried in the dirt , the teddy bears set up as if filming their own cooking show , or a dozen other dioramas that exist just to make it a more interesting space . In the podunk town of Flatwoods one of the first quests for the Responders faction @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a reverend who let his church be used as a hospital after the war . There 's a terminal listing that tells you his address , alongside details of another eight members of the Responders . Though they wo n't appear on your questlog , every other Responder on that list is out there to be found , bodies with their own Survivor Story audiologs and a little bit of loot . It 's a scavenger hunt that 's not signposted , but if you slow down and pay attention to the environment it 's there to be found . It 's easy to miss stuff like this , though . The received wisdom about online games is that the endgame is where it 's at and everything between logging on and hitting the level cap is just hours of guff . Assuming the same of Fallout 76 saw me sprint through questlines to join the Enclave and get ready to take part in the nuclear loop -- whether using a warhead on the Fissure to draw out the scorchbeast queen raid boss or just dropping one on Whitesprings @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to -- and that led me to a high-speed collision with the wall of No Fun . High-level bulletsponge enemies with damage resistance . Bugged-out quests like the one to kill a specific ghoul who has inevitably been murdered by another player by the time you get there . Storylines that keep building to the same revelation that every NPC involved is dead or a robot . A crafting treadmill that involves murdering endless mole miners for their scrap to turn it into black platinum and hoarding clipboards because they 're a good source of springs and valuable as gold . All these things were bricks in that wall . So I made a new character and started over , abandoning my rush for the endgame in favor of a gentle stroll through the noob zone . I gradually rinsed each location , finding oddities like a dog kennel with the periodic table of the elements written inside ( maybe by a genius dog ? ) , and a holiday camp with a computer that sets off spooky noises and makes the paintings on the walls spin around @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ revisited all its Mothman-themed tourist traps . Fallout 76 has transformed into a chillout game for me , one where there 's no need to rush and exploring is fun Fallout 76 's best cryptid , the Mothman has its own statue , museum , and riverside shrine with eerie bone replica , which is how I 'd like to be memorialized too . But Mothman 's threaded into the whole area more than I realized , a layer of geologic strata to uncover wherever you dig . One house has a basement Mothman shrine with an effigy made of twigs lit by candles , there 's a Mothman episode of the Tales from the West Virginia Hills holotape drama , and an audiolog in the landlocked lighthouse reveals the building was part of a plot to summon the creature the traditional way moths are summoned -- by turning on a very bright light . Fallout 76 has transformed into a chillout game for me , one where there 's no need to rush and exploring is fun . My first character was based on Tank Girl @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . My new character 's modeled on Jimmy Stewart and he ambles through encounters , nothing fancy or special . I hang onto spare recipes and med-x , dropping them in front of new players while doing an emote pantomime to explain this paper bag 's for them . I 've got time to help anyone who needs it . Every now and then there 's a warning that someone on the server 's about to drop a nuke . It 's never anywhere near me . I do n't even bother looking up from the crafting table to check where the red circle 's going to be on the map any more . There are always people looking for sticks to beat Bethesda with and Fallout 76 sure is a pointy one . But I 've been having a real nice time ever since I decided to stay here in West Virginia 's equivalent of the Hinterlands from Dragon Age : Inquisition , doing favors for new players and following every ridiculous sidequest that pops up even if it 's just to find Jangles the Space Monkey @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and then one of those level 50 scorchbeasts spawns overhead and screeches up a storm , a random encounter that exists to foreshadow the endgame . I let them pass by in peace every time . You do you , scorchbeast . I 'll be down here relaxing with the noobs and the teddy bear who 's cooking up a barbecue. |

Reproduction of any content for commercial purposes is subject to our usage terms and conditions , please email the editor at his address directly for clarification . The Australian Dollar was lifted Tuesday by reports suggesting the Chinese government will cut taxes on a larger scale than previously thought in order to support the economy , fuelling support for so-called risk assets . Meanwhile analysts at one of the world 's largest lenders , Bank of America , have recommended buying the antipodean currency . They say it will be the biggest beneficiary of a China-related improvement in market risk appetite . Officials from China 's central bank and finance ministry told reporters Tuesday that long-mooted tax cuts will now be on a " larger scale " and that they will target small businesses as well as the manufacturing sector , according to a report from The South China Morning Post . " After yesterday 's awful Chinese trade data , this morning brings promises of further tax cuts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ indices higher , and dragged the yen to the bottom of the overnight FX rankings , " says Kit Juckes , chief FX strategist at Societe Generale . The move comes as analyst forecasts of an economic slowdown in China during 2019 grow in number and barely a day after trade balance data showed Chinese companies and consumers struggling beneath the weight of White House trade tariffs in December . Imports from the rest of the world fell by -7.6% in December while exports also declined broadly , by -4.4% , as companies and consumers grappled with the combined effect of weaker exchange rates as well as homemade tariffs on goods imported from the U.S. " The more the Chinese authorities use fiscal policy to help manage the economic slowdown , the longerthey can avoid triggering CNY weakness , which would support the dollar more broadly . China 's slowing economy does , however , reinforce the risk that the global economic cycle has turned lower more sharply than some realise , " Juckes adds .

The Australian Dollar was lifted Tuesday by reports suggesting the Chinese government will cut taxes on a larger scale than previously thought in order to support the economy , fuelling support for so-called risk assets . Meanwhile analysts at one of the world 's largest lenders , Bank of America , have recommended buying the antipodean currency . They say it will be the biggest beneficiary of a China-related improvement in market risk appetite . Officials from China 's central bank and finance ministry told reporters Tuesday that long-mooted tax cuts will now be on a " larger scale " and that they will target small businesses as well as the manufacturing sector , according to a report from The South China Morning Post . " After yesterday 's awful Chinese trade data , this morning brings promises of further tax cuts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ indices higher , and dragged the yen to the bottom of the overnight FX rankings , " says Kit Juckes , chief FX strategist at Societe Generale . The move comes as analyst forecasts of an economic slowdown in China during 2019 grow in number and barely a day after trade balance data showed Chinese companies and consumers struggling beneath the weight of White House trade tariffs in December . Imports from the rest of the world fell by -7.6% in December while exports also declined broadly , by -4.4% , as companies and consumers grappled with the combined effect of weaker exchange rates as well as homemade tariffs on goods imported from the U.S. " The more the Chinese authorities use fiscal policy to help manage the economic slowdown , the longerthey can avoid triggering CNY weakness , which would support the dollar more broadly . China 's slowing economy does , however , reinforce the risk that the global economic cycle has turned lower more sharply than some realise , " Juckes adds .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'make a big deal out of' which is a fixed expression and does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction.

To find out more about the reality of having sex for the first time -- and to hear people 's regrets -- we asked a bunch of Brits to share their tales . Advertisement Advertisement I was 16 and it happened at Newmarket Racecourse . Relationship is probably too strong a word but we knew each other . It was a Sunday . August . We just headed there . We were n't drinking or anything as far as I can remember . We did it on the racecourse . Quickly ! It was forgettable ! I was so nervous that I did n't come . I do n't think she did either . I lost my virginity aged 30 and it was with a guy I 'd met on Tinder -- it was painful , uncomfortable and forgettable . He also smelled of nothing -- like literally no scent at all -- and it was all I could focus on the whole time . Never slept with him again and it put me off trying again . Happy to say things improved later down the line @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It was the right time in my head as I was fed up of not being sexually active -- I wanted to know if I was missing anything I do n't regret it -- for me it was just to get it out of the way . I wanted it to be with someone I did n't love -- it was all about the act , not the emotions . I come from a culture where sex before marriage is frowned upon -- so I waited and waited , and was like : is this it ? It was n't worth waiting for . Was at T in the Park when I was 16 . I got wasted then went to watch David Guetta ... ended up kissing a guy I was sort of friends with . Advertisement Advertisement Ended up going back to my tent , losing my virginity ( our wellies were still on because the tent was too small to take them off ) and as SOON as he finished , he got up and ran out . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who I knew nothing about . Did n't feel any particular sense that I had ' lost ' anything but it was my first experience for sure of guys being total pricks . Did n't try to make it romantic like a lot of my friends did , so I like that it was a bit rock n roll considering how square I am now . ( Picture : Ella Byworth for Metro.co.uk ) I had been with my first boyfriend since I was 14 but we did n't have sex until I was 16 . We 'd done everything else so by the time we actually came to it , I just remember being totally underwhelmed , it did n't last long and I remember lying there thinking -- ' Is that it ? ? ? ? ? We may as well have done a year ago ! ' But now as a grown up I 'm glad I waited and did n't rush anything as it was with someone I loved and really trusted . I would have hated to have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I did n't care about . We also had no idea what we were doing and unfortunately I probably did n't actually enjoy sex until about a year later . At 17 , I was the last one of my friendship group to have sex . Advertisement I 'd done other bits with a boyfriend , but we broke up before we actually went all the way , so I wanted to just get it over and done with . I ended up having sex for the first time with someone I hated while off my face on mephedrone ( remember when that was legal ? ) . I was definitely ready , but the set-up was not healthy . I did a lot of things that I would n't have been comfortable with if I had been sober . I do n't really regret it because it has n't had a horrible emotionally scarring effect on me ( as far as I know ) . I wanted to have sex , I had sex , then I was able to date @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ virgin anymore . I do n't think sex for the first time needs to be a huge deal . As long as you 're ready and it 's consensual , go right ahead . It does n't need to be super romantic or done in the perfect way , it 's just a physical act that you 'll likely go on to do many more times with other people . I was 15 . I do n't really remember it , to be honest . It was unmemorable ... not in a bad way . It was in bed , with a girlfriend , tried a bit of sex , that was it . Genuinely have no outstanding memories . I probably did it too early . So , I was 15 and had been with my high school boyfriend for around six months . Weirdly I 'd only had my first kiss the month before with him . Talk about moving fast , but we really wanted to give it a go and our mates had done it and did @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ right ? Advertisement I reckon the majority of my friendship group lost their virginity in the same month I did . What a time to be alive . We were on holiday with his family , staying at his grandma 's house up the coast ( romance is n't really in the teenage vocabulary ) and literally one night , when everyone went to bed , we just thought , why not ? We had to do the ' sneak into one another 's guest rooms ' as we were not allowed to share a bed . He already had a condom handy , because he was a 15-year-old boy keen to have sex , and it was really quite a nothing act . No offence to the guy . It did n't hurt ( we even checked for the telltale blood on the bed ... nothing ) . It was n't awkward . It just ... happened . And then it was over and we were like , ' cool ' . I did n't feel like I 'd changed in any way @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ swiftly put on the pill right as I turned 16 , despite not dishing all the dirty deets to my mother previously ... so perhaps mum was wiser to any differences in how I acted . I had just turned 18 and was desperate to lose it before I went to university . I had been seeing my boyfriend at the time for about three months . He was 24 -- which looking back , is way too old to be dating a 17/18 year old -- but he had a car and a job and he would get me in to clubs . I did n't fancy him , but I did n't really fancy any boys at that point -- that came later -- I just felt like I was supposed to have a boyfriend and be going on dates , and he was always really nice to me . It happened one night in his flat . I feel like I knew it was going to happen that night , but I also remember I was wearing a pair of Snoopy knickers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It really , really hurt . He was rather well endowed . He asked me -- ' am I hurting you ? ' and through gritted teeth I said , ' nope ! ' . But he was trying really hard to be gentle . After , he scurried off to the bathroom and asked me if I needed any tissue -- which at the time I did n't understand at all , and I was like ... ' no ? ' I remember rolling over and thinking , oh god -- why do people do this ? But I do n't regret it . No , it was n't romantic . No , I did n't love the guy . But he was kind , and my aim was to lose my virginity before uni -- that 's all I wanted out of it . And I do n't think you 're ever , truly ready for the first time you have sex anyway . I lost my virginity at a popular rock music festival in Berkshire after I turned 19 . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have gone one more day without finally losing my V. I like to tell people it was ' intense ' , because , yes , my friends , it was in tents . It was reconciliation sex , as I 'd completely fumbled my first attempt to bone only two weeks earlier in the passenger seat of her car . We agreed to try the act again at the festival , in a close semi-circle of our nearest and dearest friends nearby . I did not cum , despite my best intentions . You might think that this 'd mean that at least she had a jolly good time from my ability to last , but in hindsight it was the most unrhythmic jig wildly spasming above her , and maybe the first time I 'd used my hips for anything . We mutually agreed to call it a day , and we never did it again . It kickstarted a chain of drunk , one night sex where the person and I would go our separate ways afterwards . I barely remember my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( Picture : Ella Byworth for Metro.co.uk ) I 'd been with my school boyfriend for about a year -- we were proper serious in my eyes , the couple of the school . The first time we were going to have sex , my mum twigged and wrote a letter to my boyfriend telling him to respect me ( and not flush the condom down the toilet ) , which naturally embarrassed both of us to hell and we were too ashamed to go through with it . Ten years later I still do n't think I 've forgiven her for that . We finally committed to it on his 16th birthday -- we 'd had a wonderful day out in London , had gone and seen a play , etc etc . Mum somehow let us stay in the spare room in a double bed so we set some music up , candles , the full clich ? . But in the build up to it , somehow it came up that he 'd been smoking for the past month or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you guessed it , my mum , who did it constantly . That caused a bit of an argument , but because we 'd already hyped ourselves up , we had sex anyway . I do n't regret losing my virginity with him at all , but I wish we 'd done it at another time to save tainting it with me being upset . We stayed together for another couple of years but broke up a short while after he went to uni . I had sex for the first time on a beach in Biarritz with a man who I thought was a Vanderbilt but turned out to be a very distant cousin of the Vanderbilts . I was 18 , there were literal fireworks , but I got sand in my vagina and found the whole experience quite undignified . I really was quite upset that he was n't a proper Vanderbilt . I was 17 years old when I lost my virginity in 1993 , but I had been lying that I had already lost it since @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the upstairs bedroom of a house party , which smelt of Thunderbirds Blue , teenage excitement and petty theft . My mate was in the other room and we lost it at the same time . He never saw his girl again but I ended up going out with mine for five years . We met at sixth form , had been heavy petting for a few weeks and then both did it drunk at the party . I had no idea what I was doing but had seen a porno called Alex D'Renzy 's Easy Way ( the VHS label said ' World Cup 66 ' the week before ) so I copied some of the moves I had seen from there . It did not last long , I think I used a condom , and tucked in a plant pot in the bedroom afterwards . We were doing it on a pile of coats , mine included , it was green corduroy coat , and it was wrecked by teenage fluids . A few weeks later we did it properly , on my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ without the soundtrack of someone shouting ' I 've got 3 fingers in ' . I am glad I lost my virginity with a girl I loved , she was a great first love . I remember highfiving my friend walking home and telling my mates the next day , because of my excitement they definitely knew I had been lying about the French girl . I was 17 . It was his 17th birthday . It was on the top bed of a bunkbed , at his birthday sleepover with a bunch of his friends . His friends walked in midway , then his little brother spotted the condom wrapper the next morning It was awkward ... very awkward . It did n't last long . I do n't think we ever saw each other again . I did it with my boyfriend when I was 15 and he was 18 . He was super nice but his mates had convinced him there would be loads of blood as I was a virgin so he 'd got blackout drunk @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ horrible after so I left alone with a bottle of vodka , went to a party and made out with a gross 24-year-old in a dragon shirt . I was 13 , which is far too young , and it was with a boyfriend who was 19 , which is far too old . I regret having sex that early . I felt ready at the time , but looking back it was n't right . We met at freshers week at uni -- I was a late one by some standards ( 19 ) , we were seeing each other from September , in December he told me he 'd booked a trip to Paris for my birthday . First love and all that , tells you he 's taking you to Paris -- we did it right then . It was pretty damn good and not all that awkward considering it was the first time . That 's how I 'm remembering it anyway , 11 years later , maybe I 've blanked out bad bits . It was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the time , though very young and naive . It led to an awful breakup but I do n't regret it . I was 19 . I liked to imagine my first time would be a grand occasion with a marching band , confetti and singing Disney birds to wake me up into sexual maturity . Turns out , life does n't always go your way -- I was given a single-bed fumble with my neighbour in university halls . To be honest , there was an element of build-up to it . We had been on a couple of dates before , which perhaps ramped up my awkwardness surrounding it all . I remember it putting on a whole lot of pressure around it , which , looking back , is the worst thing you can possibly do ever . We went onto have a three-year relationship , so it could n't have been too awful . But any attempts to make it ' sexy ' are dashed when you 're clambering over one another and simply trying not to fall out a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ socks on because it was so cold . Diabolical . Looking back though , I do n't regret it . I 'm of the mind of simply getting it out the way so you can move onwards and upwards as fast as possible . Everyone 's first time is an awkward mess , so just try to enjoy/forget about it . The week before my birthday ( so I was 18 ) I met this gorgeous breakdancer at the Student Union and he invited me to see him dance one evening . I was pretty drunk and I could n't believe my luck when he came back with me to my crappy halls . Fairy lights on , the deed was done and I remember thinking maybe I should tell him it was my first time but it really did n't seem like a big deal . He had a pretty big dick but it was n't painful as such . I remember thinking why do people make such a big deal out of having or not having sex -- it 's not world @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ really liked this guy so I was so chuffed with myself and also in awe of this dude . Anyway , we 're finished and I was like , gosh , I 'm so glad that happened , I 've never done that before . He was crushed . He was like : I ca n't believe you did n't tell me , I wish you had told me , I would have made it more special . I had no idea . Part of me thought : look at me , I 'm a natural . Part of me thought maybe I did a bad thing by not saying -- maybe it was a big thing for him . He 's literally one of the hottest and nicest people I 've ever met . The next time we had sex he covered himself in honey and I woke up stuck to him . Names have been changed and stories have been edited for length and clarity . |

Following the release of their brand new album ' Living In Extraordinary Times ' last year . Extraordinary times call for extraordinary music , James are back with new songs forged in these strangest of days . The Mancunians returned in 2018 with the ' Better Than That ' EP and they followed in August with their 15th studio album , aptly titled ' Living In Extraordinary Times ' . Taken together as shot and chaser they prove James to be as vital , visceral and urgent as ever . James are one of British indie rock 's most celebrated and enduring bands . Formed in 1982 in Whalley Range , Manchester , their debut ' Jimone ' EP was released in November the following year on Factory Records and made Morrissey and Johnny Marr into early fans . The band went on to produce a string of huge hits during the next three decades , including ' Come Home ' , ' Sit Down ' , ' She 's a Star ' and ' Laid ' . The band 's longevity @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reinvention . Their most recent album , 2016 's ' Girl at the End of the World ' debuted at number two in the UK album charts . In total , they have sold more than 25 million albums worldwide , including their 1998 ' Best Of ' which was a UK number one and went triple platinum . James ' reputation as a uniquely transcendent live act is well-earned , having headlined festivals from Glastonbury in 1992 to Festival No.6 in 2015 . The new recording sessions were overseen by Mercury Prize-winning producer Charlie Andrew and rising star Beni Giles . The former had come to the band 's attention through his work with alt-J . " When their first record came out I thought the production and the arrangements were just genius , " says singer and lyricist Tim Booth . " So I wrote to Charlie quite early on and told him I wanted to work with him . " Giles had already been working with the band on creating a new rhythmical approach when Andrew , who won a Brit as producer of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ away by the band live . " We were definitely trying to capture as much of the live energy as we could , " he says of the recording process . " This album is full of big tunes . Tim and the guys are all very good at writing huge hooks . There 's some really big , energetic tracks and some nice , chilled ones . There 's some monstrous tracks , like ' Hank ' , which is just vast with layers and layers of drums . " Bassist Jim Glennie was impressed by the impact Andrew and Giles had on the rhythmic sound of the new record . " It was n't what I expected , " he says . " We were creating belting , banging layers of rhythm rather than relying on fancy programming . It was us all in a room hitting things . That 's pushed us in a different direction , and live it 's going to be wonderful . " Hank ' , which appears on the EP and opens the new record , is further evidence that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Booth is an Englishman in America , and that particular perspective on Donald Trump 's American carnage could n't help but have an impact on the writing of the record . Booth sings of : " White fascists in the White House / More beetroot in your Russian stew " and : " Democracy sells easy/NRA high fives / Orlando , Sandy Hook and Columbine " . " You ca n't write lyrics in the time of Trump and not have some reflection of that , " says Booth , who has made his home in California for the last 10 years . " Originally he was sneaking into nearly every song at some level . Then I had to say : ' I really wo n't let this guy have this record . ' I whittled it down to two or three songs where I would really focus on what 's going on , but he 's still the backdrop to the record- the horror-show of American politics . " For multi-instrumentalist Saul Davies , ' Hank ' - which is propelled along on an industrial , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ band are these days . " I think that could become one of the highlights of the live shows . We 're all going to have to hit something ! " he laughs . He also points out that while lyrically the song looks toward America , sonically it is heard through : " a kaleidoscope of Britishness . " He adds : " We ca n't do Americana . We 're more claustrophobic , more ' dark Satanic mills ' . " Another song , ' Many Faces ' , was written as a response to Trump 's claim that he would build a border wall with Mexico . " We do n't need walls , " says Booth . " What we need is diversity and interconnectedness , not the other way around . It 's the tribal mentality which will destroy us , if nothing else does . It 's that which will make us drop the bomb . The more that we see that we 're the same , the less likely we are to kill each other . I 'm hoping that will match @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we can get an audience singing ' There 's only one human race , many faces ' then that 's going to be beautiful . " As well as biting social commentary , ' Living In Extraordinary Times ' also sees Booth speak frankly about deeply personal issues . On ' Coming Home ( Pt. 2 ) ' , he writes - not for the first time - about the pain of being a father on tour away from a young child . " I wrote 1989 single ' Come Home ' feeling shit about leaving my older kid and splitting up with his Mum , " explains Booth . " This is a part two , a sequel to that .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('Hollande revealed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to talk the Tory leader out of holding the referendum'). It involves a prevention interpretation ('talk the Tory leader out of holding the referendum' implies preventing the Tory leader from holding the referendum). The verb 'talk' fits into the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot (by means of verbal persuasion). The NP subject 'Hollande' is an animate agent, and the NP object 'the Tory leader' is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'holding the referendum'. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The serving European Council president , Donald Tusk , told Inside Europe : Ten Years of Turmoil , that Cameron confided in him that he only promised the 2016 vote because he expected to be in another coalition with the Lib Dems , who would veto it . The BBC documentary series , due to be broadcast on January 28 , features interviews with a broad swathe of political figures from all sides of Brexit , including former chancellor George Osborne , ex-foreign secretary William Hague , president of the European Commission Jean-Claude Juncker and former French presidents Nicolas Sarkozy and Francois Hollande . Cameron , who quit as prime minister in 2016 after leading the failed Remain campaign , was the main notable figure not to take part . The producers said today that he declined because he has signed an exclusive deal for his memoirs . In a straight-talking interview , former Polish prime minister Tusk described talking to Cameron before the referendum , while @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ migrant benefits in an attempt to head off Eurosceptic Tory MPs . Tusk said he warned the PM there was " no appetite for revolution " , adding : " I asked David Cameron , ' Why did you decide on this referendum , this - it 's so dangerous , so , even , stupid , you know ' . " He told me - and I was really amazed and even shocked - that the only reason was his own party . He told me he felt really safe , because he thought at the same time that there 's no risk of a referendum , because , his coalition partner , the Liberals , would block this idea of a referendum . " But then , surprisingly , he won and there was no coalition partner . So paradoxically David Cameron became the real victim of his own victory . " Tusk added that after the referendum he agreed with Cameron 's decision to step down as PM , adding : " It was like his day of reckoning was coming , reckoning @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The series also talked to other key figures of the years leading up to the Brexit vote , including Nick Clegg , the UK 's then EU ambassador Sir Ivan Rogers , and Cameron 's director of communications Craig Oliver . There are also appearances from Brexiteers including Douglas Carswell , who quit the Tories to become Ukip 's first MP in 2014 , and his fellow Eurosceptic , the Tory MEP Daniel Hannan . They give accounts from all sides of the Brexit battle in the first episode of the series , We Quit . The further two episodes will look at the Greek financial meltdown and the Syrian migrant crisis . Cameron was also warned about his strong-arm negotiating tactics by the two French presidents who served during his time at Number 10 , the programme revealed . Sarkozy revealed how he warned Cameron about his attempt at strong-arm tactics with EU leaders over concessions on migrant rules and integration , telling him : " If you try to break our arm , you 'll get nothing . " And Hollande revealed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to talk the Tory leader out of holding the referendum . The French politician told the documentary : " Nothing obliged him to hold the referendum when he did . " This would not be the first time that a commitment made at an election had not been kept afterwards , but he wanted to show he could negotiate successfully with Europeans . " Oliver , a former BBC executive , told how Cameron raised the Second World War in a chat with German Chancellor Angela Merkel , during a break in migrant talks in 2016 . The PR man said Merkel arrived with little notice at the UK delegation 's rooms looking like " she was finally ready to do businesses and she had really focused on this " . Oliver went on : " David Cameron said to her , ' Look unless you can actually give me what I am asking for , if it is perceived that we are watering this down yet again then I 'm just going to face a barrage of criticism and it is going to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ moment Angela Merkel turned to her aide and said ' what is barrage ? ' And David Cameron immediately jumped in and said ' blitzkrieg ' . " They all started laughing and she looked at him as if he was a bit of a naughty schoolboy and she suggested she was prepared to say yes . " Theresa May also declined to take part in the programme , but faced criticism on screen from an old adversary , George Osborne , whom she sacked as chancellor . Osborne , describing a meeting held by Mr Cameron to get ministers ' views on whether to back a referendum , said : " Theresa May did n't say very much , which was par for the course in those meetings .

" is the type of question Lotta Juvin does n't want to see in her emails An overload of emails , including in the evenings and weekends , is threatening to leave England 's teachers exhausted , with no off-switch from their working lives , warns the Education Secretary , Damian Hinds . Speaking at the annual Bett Show for educational technology , he warned that feedback to parents had gone from a quick chat at parents ' evenings to being expected to be available every hour of the waking day . " I 'm sure none of us now could imagine a life without email but do we ever stop to think how much of our day is actually spent reading or replying to them ? " he said , in a speech at London 's Excel Centre . But what was the experience of teachers at the show ?

" Everyone thinks that the email they 're sending is important , " he says . " But a teacher 's job is to teach a class , not to communicate with 30 sets of parents . " Laura McInerney , a former teacher and education journalist , gathers research data through the Teacher Tapp app , which suggests teachers are spending six hours a week answering emails . Apart from the loss of time , how much creative energy disappears into multiple , quick-fire replies and keeping down the numbers of unanswered emails ?

And that should n't be because people " need to be seen " by sending everyone an email on Saturday afternoons . He says the difficulty with dealing with parents ' emails is that it can be such an open-ended dialogue . How do you go about answering emails about " who got the parts in the Christmas play " ? It 's about diplomacy as well as directness and emails run the risk of being interpreted differently from how they were intended .

Schools are now expected to act as welfare centres and social workers , she says , adding to the type of out-of-hours requests likely to arrive . As a school leader , she says , she has to lead by example by not sending out unnecessary emails . " You can say , ' No , ' " she says .

READERS will know that I refused to vote with my former Labour colleagues last week in favour of a general election that could make Jeremy Corbyn prime minister because I think he would be a disaster for Barrow and Furness . A fair number of people have contacted me asking why I think he is such a threat to jobs in Barrow shipyard . Many of my former colleagues in the Labour party point out that Labour 's official policy remains to continue the Dreadnought programme . Indeed , I spent hundreds of hours over my time as a Labour member working to keep that policy sensible . Jeremy Corbyn is just one man , they say , and our party is decided democratically . Well , we will see about that . But the main problem is this : whatever it says on the sheet of paper that emerges from the latest Labour conference or national executive committee meeting , the British prime minister has unparalleled personal control over the deployment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hands of this lifelong CND campaigner would ultimately spell the end the programme to replace the submarines that carry it . Why ? Because Mr Corbyn has vowed never even to threaten a counter strike to protect the country against nuclear blackmail from hostile states . That breaks the policy of deliberate ambiguity which every British PM has maintained since Clement Attlee created the UK 's nuclear capability , and it renders the deterrent useless at a stroke . The Dreadnought boats are designed solely to keep Trident undetectable under the oceans -- they would have no purpose under a Corbyn government , unless you wanted to turn them into the world 's most expensive and least efficient troop carriers . For my entire adult life I have campaigned against the damage done by Conservative governments and seen first hand the way a good Labour government can transform people 's chances . I desperately want to give voters a chance to choose a better path for our community and area without letting into Downing Street a man that would wreak disaster on our area and make our country @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ my responsibility is to protect the livelihoods of the people who gave me the privilege of serving as their member of parliament .

WeWork , the flexible office provider , knows what people want , but is expanding too quickly . WeWork , which rents premises and then sub-lets them as trendy co-working office spaces , was recently valued at $47bn after Japanese investor SoftBank said it would invest a further $2bn in the group . While $2bn might sound like quite a vote of confidence , this was way down from an original $16bn . Moreover , the money is no longer coming from SoftBank 's $100bn Vision tech fund , whose investors had apparently " balked " at the commitment , reports the Financial Times . Little wonder -- WeWork 's offices might be pretty , but it needs to show that it can make the profit needed to justify its stratospheric valuation . The company 's recent rebranding ( as the " We Company " ) and its addition of co-living and education branches is an attempt to show that it has growth potential beyond co-working . As co-founder Adam Neumann told business magazine Fast Company , even " if the world goes into a real downturn @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us do is be afraid or slow down or take less risks " . WeWork launched in New York in 2010 , and now runs 554 office locations across 97 cities . In 2017 it took on another 1.2m sq ft of office space in London , making it the capital 's largest private occupier of office space . WeWork now has ? 3bn of UK leasing commitments over the next 20 years , says data provider CoStar . " WeWork 's expansion is an attempt to show potential beyond co-working " In effect , WeWork 's business model is similar to that of a bank . It borrows long ( signs long-term rental leases ) and lends short ( sublets to short-term renters at a higher rate ) . And the most pressing issue for the company is whether it will be able to meet its future commitments . In 2018 , its European arm doubled its UK revenues . Yet after a year of expansion , it saw its losses triple to ? 32.3m . The idea that it might be risky to take out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sublet them is apparently not lost on Neumann , who seems to be hedging his bets . The Wall Street Journal notes Neumann owns stakes in many of the properties WeWork has leased . " In a public company , that would be considered highly controversial , " Charles Elson of the Center for Corporate Governance at the University of Delaware told the newspaper . Although We Work is not listed , looking at its valuation gives a good context if you are considering a potential investment in the sector . As the Financial Times 's Lex column pointed out last summer , WeWork 's steep valuation " depends on a blinkered faith in its originality despite a crowded market of competitors " . In contrast to WeWork , for example , IWG , which owns office hire group Regus , is profitable . But after two takeover approaches from private-equity firms last year , the company has hired an adviser to sell its own flexible-working unit , Spaces . Property developer British Land ( LSE : BLND ) also operates its @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on flexible working in the future , while selling out of underperforming retail premises ( a restructure that prompted the exit of two bosses ) . It recently bought its first building that will be specifically geared towards co-working . Of its ? 16.8bn portfolio , it owns ? 12.9bn . As Investors Chronicle notes , the group has a " modest " loan-to-value ratio of 26.7% and speculative development exposure of just 3.7% . Its shares currently trade at a steep discount to the value of its portfolio -- a bargain next to WeWork. |

After dropping points to Kilmarnock , another set-back would have left Rangers ' title challenge looking precarious . And they arrived in Livingston having won just one of their last five top-flight visits to West Lothian , including a defeat on their last trip . Jermain Defoe started on the bench as Gerrard made four changes from that Killie loss , but early on he watched as his side passed up the type of chances the Englishman has made a career out of finishing . Ross McCrorie steered a header wide at the near post , then Morelos failed to burst the net from point-blank range . But Livi were being smothered under Rangers ' high pressing . Ricki Lamie gifted possession to Daniel Candeias , who proceeded to play a brilliant through ball to Morelos whose low shot bounced off the post .

He made a late run from the left to meet James Tavernier 's cross but sent it wide , but he could not miss when Kelly rebounded Morelos ' flick into his path and he thumped in his fourth goal of the season . It was not Livi goalkeeper Kelly 's day against his former club and Morelos was determined to put one past him . He failed to hold a cross - gifting the ball to the Colombian who shot wide - then tipped a header over .

Her mother Marion and sister Joanne had both attended Our Lady 's Grammar School in Newry . But having won player of the tournament at a primary school netball tournament held at Sacred Heart , they wooed her and she happily took their hand . " I would have been conscious of wanting to be a vet , and I thought I had to go to the grammar school . But 100 per cent , I only went because they played netball and Our Lady 's did n't . " The vet thing . Her father , Charlie -- a three-time Armagh SFC winner with Carrickcruppen - is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ off the school bus to pull on the wellies , it always entertained her keen mind . That became studying the sciences at A-Level and ultimately it morphed into medical studies of the human kind at Queen 's . She is currently working a three-day week as a GP in Dundrum . Her time-management talents are well known - travelling to the north of England to play for Manchester Thunder in the Super League , playing with Northern Ireland around the world and Larkfield at home . Alongside her GAA commitments with Armagh and Carrickcruppen , it 's not what you 'd call a quiet life . " It 'd be different if you had to work two jobs and you really hated it -- to me , that 's busy , that 's stressful . " At Queen 's , she played a bit of soccer . That led to an approach by Northern Ireland manager Alfie Wylie , but her plate was already stuffed . As recently as a few months ago , she was approached about following her Irish International Rules team-mate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up . It just did n't work out . There were discussions , it got beyond a couple of initial talks and I explored it a bit , but it just was n't going to be feasible . " She 's managed to turn almost two decades out of being competitive at the top level , yet the crevices through which Caroline O'Hanlon could have fallen are not so much cracks in women 's sport as gaping chasms . Her elder sister Joanne was simply never exposed to the same opportunities , and so never developed the same interest . Caroline was drawn in to games with the older girls at St Joseph 's PS in Bessbrook while she hung about waiting for her mother 's working day to end . When the boys were playing football at break-time and dinner-time , she 'd hold her own . She did n't care that she was the only girl . " I still was n't as strong as them , so if they 're putting in a shoulder you might have been a bit sore but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would have been ' the girl ' . " If you stung your hand , you did n't want to cry , that would be the end of your street cred , " she laughs . " At the time I think you just wanted to play a game , same as you 'd go outside , ' will we play a match ? ' and you just played it . It was n't to say I was thinking I was pioneering . I just wanted to play a game . I was n't bothered if other girls played or did n't play . " She came through just at a time when girls teams were starting to spring up around the place . That was almost two decades ago but despite the rising profile of women 's sport , and the body of evidence that shows the positive impact of exercise , there are more and more cutbacks happening in schools . Through her working life , she sees dwindling resources and interest being applied through by those in charge of the education system @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ alternatives , not just for the sake of sport but for the sake of wellbeing . " It 's sad that it seems to be going in the opposite way again at the minute . The focus is more on league tables and results . " Are you churning out people who are able to cope with the day-to-day pressures ? It 's sad that schools are focussing that way . There are cuts again and the GAA one is massive . " It 's not just because it 's GAA , but because that might be the only sport that 's in a lot of those schools and they 're taking it away . " There needs to be a bigger focus , because the pressures we 're seeing in people , that I 'm seeing day-to-day , we do need to do more to have better rounded people with a better balance . I do n't think taking sport out of schools is promoting that . " ***** " I 'd rather seen you carry a dead animal impaled on a stick @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ flag . Just a symbol of hatred that turns nationalist stomachs ... " @lawnseed1 on Twitter AMID the wave of congratulations that met the announcement that Caroline O'Hanlon would carry the flag for Northern Ireland at last year 's Commonwealth Games , there was the odd inevitable barb . It had crossed her mind . Although briefly , how could it not ? A nationalist girl from the fork in the road right between Camlough and Bessbrook , slap bang in the heart of south Armagh . It was an area hit exceptionally hard by the troubles , where men from both sides lost their lives and where the British Army made the local linen mill into a major military base from which British Army helicopters would take off and land every few minutes as she grew up . But sport and politics were never aligned in her mind . Firing had ceased by the time her sporting career was whirling its way skyward . She 's been wearing the white and green of Northern Ireland for a decade-and-a-half now . Captained them . Been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ireland team is laced with cross-code GAA players . Last year , O'Hanlon was one of three inter-county captains that mixed Gaelic football with a big year at the Commonwealths . Neamh Woods , who was outstanding as Tyrone won the All-Ireland intermediate title , and Down 's Laura Mason skippered their respective counties , while the likes of Dearbhla Coleman ( Armagh ) and Michelle Drayne ( Antrim ) also mix the two sports . Declaring for Northern Ireland was made easy by the fact that the Republic had no team when she was coming up . In the beginning , O'Hanlon admits being conscious of it , but the feeling quickly subsided . It stayed away until she was told she 'd been selected to lead the team out in the Carrara Stadium on the Gold Coast . " Initially you did n't hesitate because it 's a massive honour . But then you 're starting to think ' aw , how 's this going to go down at home ? This flag ... ' Northern Ireland 's flag bearer Caroline O'Hanlon @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2018 Commonwealth Games at the Carrara Stadium in the Gold Coast , Australia . " But you take it on the positive of it what it was . I wanted netball to be at the front , what that represented for female sport and us as a team . The support was brilliant from everybody around . I had great support from the club Carrickcruppen GAA . " Obviously on Twitter you get a few random made-up accounts . It was very , very few . " The positive sporting connotations far outweighed any misgivings . Just four years on from their first ever appearance at a multi-sport event , it was hugely significant that netball was even considered for the honour . O'Hanlon 's role as captain made her the obvious choice from there . So she had no hesitation in saying yes , and braced herself for come what may . It never came . The reaction was one of universal congratulation . " Honestly , you 're asked and it 's a huge honour , not just to carry the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ last Commonwealth Games , we were new . Netball had never been before , and they did n't know much about it . So even the fact that they valued netball , and me as an athlete , enough to say ' we want you to lead the team out ' . " It was a lovely experience and the likes of the boxers coming up and congratulating you , it 's nice for netball to be so central to the team . " ***** O'HANLON was working as a radio analyst for RT ? when the Ladies football finals attracted a record 46,000 attendance in 2017 . That looked as though it would be hard to surpass . It had grown annually and in just four years , had grown from 27,374 in 2014 to 46,286 . Yet 12 months later , she was back in the press box as the sport smashed another ceiling , drawing a crowd of 50,141 . Her own bittersweet All-Ireland experience , when they were bitterly beaten by a point by Cork in 2006 , was played @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to have stagnated but the visibility offered by TG4 and the money and marketing savvy of Lidl watered the seeds for a growth spurt . Yet the reality is that widespread media exposure is still largely dependent on negativity . Caroline O'Hanlon in action for Armagh , to whom she 's committed for an 18th season . No better example than last summer 's row down in Mayo that made the back page of national newspapers . It saw eight members of the Carnacon club withdraw from the Mayo panel , and led to public claim and counter-claim between the players , manager Peter Leahy and the Mayo LGFA . But while it brought chaos on the county and did n't paint anyone involved in any great light , it had people talking . In the weeks after Dublin had held off Cork again to retain the All-Ireland title , ladies ' football was dominating the airwaves . It might not have been for the reasons they 'd have liked , but the only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the Irish women 's rugby team , netball itself -- have found a footing in the public imagination . But a huge part of their success has been in the increase of critical analysis , a lot of it self-analysis . On the morning of our interview , camogie was making headlines after Cork 's Amy O'Connor claimed Kilkenny 's policy of playing a seventh defender was n't good for helping to grow the sport . " Teams are doing analysis and being critical of themselves , so it 's going to be a natural progression as the game tries to develop further . " Even in terms of the athleticism of players , it 's massively developed . Strength and conditioning has gone up a level . " You can see it comparable with netball , because there you 're competing with people who are professional athletes . " There 's a lot of variation across the country because of resources but there 's been great strides made . The product 's better and that 's been a massive contributor as well , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ football at that level for so long , you have to put up with a lot of shit . " I do n't think inter-county men 's footballers would put up with it . They would n't do it . " There is still so much still to do . A bit more consistency in terms of allowing physicality is the big in-game challenge . In her extensive time , O'Hanlon has very seldom enjoyed the platform of a big day out in the Athletic Grounds with Armagh . They still go around the clubs begging , or paying for council pitches to train and play on . With plans , led by chairperson Sinead Reel , to spend over ? 100,000 on a new full-time LGFA training base in Killean , Armagh are ahead of the curve . There 's no point moping . Small but significant moves such as the double-headers we 'll see in Pairc ? i Chaoimh during the National Leagues are strengthening the sport , brick by brick . The players know what they 're taking into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from an exclusive LGFA problem . They 're one of the more progressive bodies . Consider the piece of string that held netball up . They 'd just been to the 2014 Commonwealths and done well , finishing seventh despite starting as the lowest-ranked team there . But they 'd missed out on World Cup qualification in a one-point loss to Scotland , the build-up to which was mired in farce . It led to their funding being wiped out . " No more money , the whole lot out the door . And you 're thinking ' how did that happen ? We did really well there ' . " By the time they were trying to qualify for this summer 's World Cup , it was literally win or bust . The team , largely through their own fundraising initiatives , paid their own way to Australia last year . Those are the top-end issues that affect trying to develop the bottom-end of female sport . O'Hanlon is an ambassador the new 20x20 campaign that aims to increase participation , awareness @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cent over the next two years . Schoolgirls depend on having visible role models , but also the chance to play the games too . " Social media 's played a big role . It 's become a massive platform over the last five years to promote the game freely . But TV gives you that coverage for people who are n't actively seeking it , who 'd incidentally watch it . " You notice that a lot . I 'd get a lot of people from here saying ' aw I saw your match , I did n't realise you were on TV ' . " Being visible on any platform helps , but that probably reaches the most people . " Caroline O'Hanlon was lucky in one way , that Tom McGuinness brought her into the world of netball , that her father took her down to Carrickcruppen pitch , and that there were teams for her to play on . She 's made the most of that luck . Hers has been a simply incredible sporting career . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks a clear V1 and NP object structure, and the phrase 'out of under-performing players' does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate with a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'under-performing' modifies the noun 'players', similar to example (7b) in the given examples.

Not just because he 's been sacked when the side he 's been managing are right in the thick of the League One promotion place . It 's also because the side he has been managing is the side he supports , well after Celtic anyway . Of course emotion and sentiment can play no part in the ruthless world of professional football . But results usually do . Posh are currently sixth behind five bigger League One clubs having lost 10 of 40 competitive fixtures . What exactly does the club expect when star players are moved on ? It 's a policy incidentally I have no problem with as long as it 's taken into account when judging the performance of others . Evans knew Jack Marriott would be sold last summer , but he also lost Gwion Edwards and Andrew Hughes which he probably did n't expect and neither have been replaced by players of similar quality . I applauded the arrival of Evans 11 months ago and not just because I 'd known him and enjoyed his company since he managed Stamford AFC to a United Counties Premier Division title 25 years @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's dream , a throwback of a boss who does n't duck a question or hide behind soundbites , unlike many modern managers . Posh had been drifting for years . The football had become stale and boring , even if the many Evans ' haters among the Posh fanbase tried to rewrite recent history in an attempt to besmirch the new boss a bit further . I was looking forward to seeing more passion , more fight , more aggression and , yes , a bit more streetwise play . I was n't bothered about a reputation for hoofball that I had n't even noticed when he was taking Rotherham United into the Championship , a promotion earned in his only full season at League One , a 100% record he keeps after today 's events . Last season he had no chance with a bunch of players totally unsuited to his methods . With his own players he would surely have performed better ? It 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his clubs have experienced in the past and that 's a formidable record of improvement over the second half of the season . I am comfortable with where Posh are in the table . I was confident Posh would outlast Grant McCann 's Doncaster Rovers and finish in the top six and then of course anything could happen . It is only fair to note that this is a far weaker League One than the one with Wigan and Blackburn in it and Posh have been remarkably free of injuries and suspensions this season . The hoofball tag at the ABAX was an exaggeration , certainly in the early stages of the season , and particularly away from home . Posh played some glorious attacking football at Plymouth and Rochdale and scored great goals at Gillingham and Burton . Longer balls were seen when Posh 's preferred style of football was rumbled and home displays were often grim , but the arrival of Lee Tomlin in January was a sign Evans was trying to adopt a style of football more pleasing on the eye . Or he 'd @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ no goals in their last three outings . Home form was not the only disappointment . The calling out of under-performing players and former managers in post-match press conferences , the excitable ranting from the technical area and the regular run-ins with admittedly useless officials are not a good look for the club , although there had been signs some of those excesses were being worked on . Only last week he promised to lay off officials after a summons arrived from the FA . The scattergun approach to summer signings was a sight to behold . The arrival of so many players with no experience of League One was a surprise to me , certainly less of a surprise than some of them being moved on already . Siriki Dembele may still turn to be a good find as might Matt Godden , while Ivan Toney looked a world beater before the new year , but the full-back positions have been filled less convincingly and the regular shuffling of the goalkeepers has been a recipe for disaster . Posh fielded @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ almost 50 years watching Posh . I expected to see lots of 1-0 wins and some expertise in killing games off , neither of which has happened . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'ruled out of performing' where 'ruled out' is a phrasal verb meaning 'excluded', and 'performing' is part of a prepositional phrase indicating the activity from which the subject is excluded. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The white fishing boat with the green stripe bobs up in down in rough Adriatic waters . Sirens on , the joint Italian-Albanian coast guard zodiacs precariously sidle up alongside , demanding to be let aboard to search the boat 's interior for contraband . The boat operator , dressed in orange jumpsuit , shrugs and complies . Two more guys emerge from the hold . Once , finding drugs bound for the rest of the Europe inside the boats trawling the sea was simple -- just look for the huge bales of cannabis stashed in the cargo hold . But several years ago , the Albanian authorities launched an aggressive eradication effort in the countryside of the small , poor Balkan state , hoping that destroying the cannabis fields and arresting some of the growers would decrease the power of the traffickers , rid the country of its pariah status , and help ease its entry into the European Union .

It is a narco-state , and they 'd lose too much money getting out of trafficking to get into the EU . " The drug trade is etched into the very skylines of the country 's main cities , including the capital , Tirana , and the port cities of Durres and Vlora . On paper Albania has one of the poorest economies in Europe , with a miserly banking sector tight with credit .

For years , Edison Harizaj was the leader of the Vlora cannabis trafficking network , a man who got to the top by driving out rivals using violence and intimidation , but also by bribing local police and officials to hit his enemies ' safe houses and storage facilities while leaving his gang 's alone . When officials refused to comply , he allegedly had little compunction about retaliating . He was under investigation for the murder of a judge in 2011 over a property dispute . But Mr Harizaj 's s rivals @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Vlora , a city beloved by traffickers for its proximity to Italy 's coastline , they wound up moving their operations to Belgium , Netherlands , and the UK , and shifted earlier into the more lucrative business of cocaine and heroin . They amassed vast fortunes , built up ties with Italian and Latin American counterparts , and then , beginning about a year ago , moved in on Mr Haziraj . Over the course of a year , some 23 people connected to the drug trade disappeared , part of what Artan Hoxha , an Albanian investigative journalist , calls increasing competition between rival Albanian drug gangs and networks . Edison Haziraj , nicknamed " Il Padrino " , was killed last year in a shoot-out ( Albania Police ) Albania 's traffickers have so far kept a low profile , preferring to keep out of the limelight . Thus far few if any civilians have been caught up in their drug wars . But they are not above menacing those who shine attention on their trade . In December , Mr Hoxha was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be under house arrest on drug charges , but actually going about his business . While discussing the story on air , he received a phone call from an anonymous man . It was a death threat . " I receive them daily , " Mr Hoxha says . The increasing violence has also scared some traffickers away from the business . Last summer , one trafficker , Gazmend Merkaj , discovered a remotely detonated bomb attached to his car . Realising he was being targeted for assassination , he turned himself over to the police rather than risk the wrath of his rivals . In jail , he was nearly killed by another prisoner allegedly hired to murder him in a knife attack . He 's now being held in a prison hospital in Tirana , away from other inmates , and according to Mr Hoxha , singing like a bird to prosecutors . Mr Harizaj , the drug kingpin nicknamed " Il Padrino " , was not so lucky . On 7 November last year , he was killed in a hail of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was 39 , and most likely the victim of the same traffickers he and his comrades pushed out of Albania some years ago . " They came back to kill the king . " says Mr Hoxha . " It 's not like Ciudad Juarez or Tijuana . But the battle that has begun is over control of the Vlora area , and it has gotten more violent . " A scene from Albania 's main port at Durres ( Borzou Daragahi ) Albania has been a centre of the drug trade since the late 1990s when the war in the former Yugoslavia moved the trafficking of drugs , stolen cars and even people further south . " Albanians became the specialists of moving drugs and people to the rest of Europe , " says Mr Hoxha . The 1990s also coincided with rise of organised crime . Gangs looted weapons from armouries in the chaos of a 1997 uprising over a failed financial institution .

" We have to fight very bad images from the past , " says Romina Kuko , deputy minister of the interior . Over the past few years , Albania has embarked on a massive effort to eradicate cannabis growth , raiding several towns . Lazarat was one such no-go area . Aerial surveillance estimates suggested the region was producing $4.5bn worth of cannabis a year .

" There was actual war , " says Ms Kuko . Between 2011 and 2016 , Albania destroyed 2.5m marijuana plants and 5,200 fields , according to government figures .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'getting out of trafficking' which is an intransitive use of 'get' with 'out of' followed by a noun phrase 'trafficking', not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

A joint patrol by the Albanian and Italian coast guard off the coast of Durres in the Adriatic Sea ( Borzou Daragahi ) They called him " il Padrino " or " burned face , " for the distinctive scars he had on his left cheek . For years , Edison Harizaj was the leader of the Vlora cannabis trafficking network , a man who got to the top by driving out rivals using violence and intimidation , but also by bribing local police and officials to hit his enemies ' safe houses and storage facilities while leaving his gang 's alone . When officials refused to comply , he allegedly had little compunction about retaliating . He was under investigation for the murder of a judge in 2011 over a property dispute . But Mr Harizaj 's s rivals @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Vlora , a city beloved by traffickers for its proximity to Italy 's coastline , they wound up moving their operations to Belgium , Netherlands , and the UK , and shifted earlier into the more lucrative business of cocaine and heroin . They amassed vast fortunes , built up ties with Italian and Latin American counterparts , and then , beginning about a year ago , moved in on Mr Haziraj . Over the course of a year , some 23 people connected to the drug trade disappeared , part of what Artan Hoxha , an Albanian investigative journalist , calls increasing competition between rival Albanian drug gangs and networks . Edison Haziraj , nicknamed " Il Padrino " , was killed last year in a shoot-out ( Albania Police ) Albania 's traffickers have so far kept a low profile , preferring to keep out of the limelight . Thus far few if any civilians have been caught up in their drug wars . But they are not above menacing those who shine attention on their trade . In December , Mr Hoxha was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be under house arrest on drug charges , but actually going about his business . While discussing the story on air , he received a phone call from an anonymous man . It was a death threat . " I receive them daily , " Mr Hoxha says . The increasing violence has also scared some traffickers away from the business . Last summer , one trafficker , Gazmend Merkaj , discovered a remotely detonated bomb attached to his car . Realising he was being targeted for assassination , he turned himself over to the police rather than risk the wrath of his rivals . In jail , he was nearly killed by another prisoner allegedly hired to murder him in a knife attack . He 's now being held in a prison hospital in Tirana , away from other inmates , and according to Mr Hoxha , singing like a bird to prosecutors .

" They came back to kill the king . " says Mr Hoxha . " It 's not like Ciudad Juarez or Tijuana . But the battle that has begun is over control of the Vlora area , and it has gotten more violent . " A scene from Albania 's main port at Durres ( Borzou Daragahi ) Albania has been a centre of the drug trade since the late 1990s when the war in the former Yugoslavia moved the trafficking of drugs , stolen cars and even people further south . " Albanians became the specialists of moving drugs and people to the rest of Europe , " says Mr Hoxha . The 1990s also coincided with rise of organised crime .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'getting out of trafficking' which is an intransitive use of 'get' with 'out of' followed by a noun phrase 'trafficking', not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

Once , finding drugs bound for the rest of the Europe inside the boats trawling the sea was simple -- just look for the huge bales of cannabis stashed in the cargo hold . But several years ago , the Albanian authorities launched an aggressive eradication effort in the countryside of the small , poor Balkan state , hoping that destroying the cannabis fields and arresting some of the growers would decrease the power of the traffickers , rid the country of its pariah status , and help ease its entry into the European Union .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('My mom' + 'talk' + 'me' + 'out of buying a knife'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the mother prevents the speaker from buying a knife by means of talking. The verb 'talk' is classified under means of verbal persuasion, and the NP object 'me' functions as a causee. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Tonight 's episode will be all about rich people problems . Brie Bella , Daniel Bryan , and Nikki Bella meet at a restaurant . ( There is a plastic straw in Bryan 's drink . Just saying . ) They have a non-conversation where Nikki establishes she 's not moving . Oh , and they say " comeback " two times , so , take a drink . Cue the red Ferrari convertible . Yeah , these are rich people problems . This was a clip on YouTube . Nikki and Brie then appear at a house show , er , " live event . " They practice their entrance . Their opponents are the Riott Squad . The Bella Twins are booked to win . Moving along , they show the YouTube clip of Nikki 's beach house -- where everyone recognizes her . Commercial . That commercial break was n't nearly long enough for me to get a drink . Nikki and the Mom drive in a car and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Yes , Season 4 of Total Bellas has no reason to happen . None at all . In the evening Brie comes over to see Nikki 's place , which apparently costs $20,000 per month . Yup , these are rich people problems . Sadly , I guess John Cena 's financial skills did n't rub off on Nikki . Moving along , Brie buys Birdie a giant teddy bear . This is also a YouTube clip . The child does not want the bear . They make no effort to make the bear seem lovable , which in it 's own special way is mindless consumerism . The " new " Daniel Bryan should be ashamed of himself . Just saying . Commercial . The next segment is where Nikki talks about renting out a bar . They are in some sort of " Cuban-inspired " speak easy / cigar bar .

Yeah , I do n't " feel better " watching this show . And yeah , Brie just said " feel better " like five times . Moving along , a child development specialist does an in-home visit for Brie and Bryan . As this lady talks , Birdie plays with a plastic toy ! For shame , " new " Daniel Bryan . Anyhoo , the professional lady explains that no one remembers anything before the age of three . Brie says " comeback " again , take a drink . Back to Nikki 's beach house . Nikki gets a letter ... from her real estate agent . Evidently the Mom thought it was a stalker fan letter . The Mom has brought over some sort of a DNA kit and a bat . My mom would have been a better mother who just had the ability to talk me out of buying a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a knife . Moving along , Brie and Bryan are leaving for Smackdown and reinforce what most people know -- that watching other people 's toddlers does not make interesting television . You know , the funny thing is that some mothers just take their young children with them . There are examples throughout the entertainment industry since I just accidentally watched a Kelly Clarkson interview where she talked about taking her kids out on tour . So , all this fuss over the issue of leaving a small child with relatives or a nanny seems a lot like a simple inability to otherwise solve a knowable problem ... you know , like the episode where Brie and Bryan traveled on an RV that was piloted by Nattie 's friends when they could have just taken a plane . We appear to have learned nothing when the solutions are knowable . Also , seriously , these are still rich people problems . Random footage of backstage at Smackdown is shown , so , brief cameos by Naomi , Paige , and Sheamus . Bryan is excited for their impending @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we had some Miz cameos . They show the promo between Miz & Maryse and Bryan & Brie . Brie punches Miz . I guess the silver lining is that she did n't hit him the way Nia Jax clobbered Becky Lynch .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'run out of' which is a phrasal verb indicating depletion, not involving a causee or a VP2[-ing] predicate with movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison grimaces during a speech in Brisbane , Australia Tuesday , Jan. 29 , 2019 . Morrison has raised the prospect of the nation suffering its first economic recession in 28 years if the opposition wins general elections due by late May . ( Darren England/AAP Image via AP ) CANBERRA , Australia ( AP ) -- Australia 's prime minister on Tuesday raised the prospect of the nation suffering its first economic recession in 28 years if the opposition wins general elections due by late May . Prime Minister Scott Morrison outlined his conservative government 's economic credentials in a speech in which he promised to detail in April Australia 's first surplus annual budget in a decade . " Only half of those of voting age at this election will have ever experienced a recession during their working lives , " Morrison said . " I do n't want them to learn how important a strong economy is to each and every single one of them by having them endure the cruel lessons of a weaker economy that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Opposition leader Bill Shorten accused Morrison of fearmongering . " They 've run out of anything to say about themselves , all they can do is talk about us , " Shorten told reporters . Australia had not experienced recession -- defined at consecutive quarters of economic contraction -- since July 1 , 1991 . Updated Treasury Department forecasts released last month showed Australia 's economy is expected to expand by 2.75 percent in the current fiscal year ending June 30 and by 3 percent the following year . Deloitte Access Economics , an economic forecaster , predicted on Tuesday Australia 's economy will be affected by slower global growth in the next two years . The forecaster also said Australia 's growth would be weighed down by tightening credit , widespread drought and falling rates of housing construction . The government argues the center-left Labor Party opposition was a threat to the economy through its policy of reducing Australia 's greenhouse gas emissions by 45 percent below 2005 levels by 2030 . The government 's target is a reduction of 26-to-28 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ opposes Labor plans to reduce tax deductions for landlords as property prices moderate in Australia 's largest cities . Morrison argues that Labor would raise 200 billion Australian dollars ( $175 billion ) with new and higher taxes that would weaken economic growth . The government has been trailing Labor in most opinion polls since in the last election in 2016 . The ruling coalition lost its single-seat majority in the House of Representatives -- where parties form governments -- when former Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull quit politics after colleagues ousted him as leader in August last year . The respected Newspoll published in The Australian newspaper on Tuesday showed 53 percent of respondents supported Labor and only 47 percent supported Morrison 's coalition . The poll was based on a nationwide survey of 1,634 voters last weekend . It had a 2.5 percentage-point margin of error . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object between the verb 'opted' and 'out of diving', and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the construction.

Revelling in his visit to " the bullseye of biodiversity " , MARK B HATTER brings us the first of two reports from the Solomon Islands I ARRIVED A BIT EARLY in Munda , a town in the Solomon Islands ' Western Province . I checked into the Agnes Gateway Hotel , then walked the short distance under triple-canopy tropical shade from my cabana to SIDE Dive Munda , behind the check-in building . Although my dive booking was not until the following day , I was eager to get under water ASAP , if at all possible . " I think one of the divers has opted out of diving this afternoon , " divemaster Jos Smulders said promisingly . " You 're welcome to join us if that 's the case -- I 'll know for sure after lunch . " I gave Jos my cabana number and asked him if he would drop by to let me know , one way or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ patio to order lunch , before heading back to my digs to prepare my kit . Between bites of delicious grilled reef fish and UK-quality chips , I carefully assembled cameras , strobes and other requisite paraphernalia before lying down for a quick cat-nap . I woke several hours later , alarmed that it was nearly dark . " Well , " I muttered to no-one in particular , as I ambled back to SIDE Solomon Islands Dive Expeditions , " the diver must have decided to go after all . " Jos had nearly finished rinsing dive-kits as I approached . " I knocked on your door three times , " he offered apologetically , " but you did n't answer . " I guess the jet lag of 36 hours ' travel had finally caught up with me . The P-39 Airacobra wreck . " No worries ! " I assured him . " This afternoon would have been a bonus dive anyway . " But missing the dive would mean yet another night of anticipation and fitful sleep , especially after @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a restless night . Visions of WW2 wreckage and pastel-coloured reefs adjacent to emerald islands set between ribbons of aquamarine and indigo waters assaulted my subconscious . It was a night of a " thousand naps " , leaving me in a granny-knot of sheets by daybreak . Appeared in DIVER January 2019 MY NIGHT VISIONS were not without merit . The nation of the Solomon Islands , named by Spanish navigator Alvaro de Mendana in 1568 after the biblical King Solomon , and in the mistaken assumption that the islands contained great riches , is indeed wealthy on many levels beyond gold and gemstones . The nation 's cultural history is amazing , from its 74 endemic languages to the practice of head-hunting between rival warring tribes for power , politics , influence and overall good juju . It was believed that it was necessary to carry a victim 's head on the maiden voyage of a canoe to prevent jinxing it ( tamu garata ) . This , of course , was before the intervention of Western missionaries in the early 20th century . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ vanquished enemies not destroyed in the war have been preserved at sacred Skull Island , in Roviana Lagoon , in shrines decorated with traditional shell money . Next , consider the geography . The Solomon Islands archipelago stretches north-west to south-east some 930 miles , just below the Equator between the Coral Sea and the south-western Pacific Ocean . With a total landmass of 11,000sq miles , the six major and 900-plus smaller islands generate substantial submarine real estate in the forms of plunging walls , dynamic fringe , coastal and barrier reefs , bommie-filled lagoons and reef-ringed submerged atolls . And , with the Solomon Islands fitting into the innermost ring next to the bulls-eye of marine biodiversity in the Coral Triangle , riches await divers in the nation 's underwater realm . Finally , ponder the amazing wealth of historic wreckage from WW2 found throughout the country . Fierce battles fought between the USA and its allies against the Japanese Imperial Forces from 1942 to 1945 left many aircraft , small boats , freighters and warships sunk in water shallow enough to explore on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Munda , trying to get aboard a dive-boat a day early . A diver visiting the Solomon Islands has multiple geographical options , and I had opted for two weeks of land-based exploration : a week in the Western Province diving out of Munda , and another in the Eastern Province 's Florida Islands ( the subject of another story to come ) . Additional options include two liveaboards out of Honiara , the capital on the largest island , Guadalcanal in the Eastern Province . I AMBLED DOWN to the restaurant deck overlooking a smooth Roviana Lagoon . It was still too early for everyone , including the water-taxis that are the optimum transportation among islanders and tourists alike . The sun was high enough for me to peer into the shallow water below the deck , and I considered finding a giant carpet anemone hosting a family of clownfish a good omen . After breakfast , and an entertaining session throwing bread scraps to the fat archerfish under the deck ( incredibly , they are able to follow the arc of a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I met Jos at the dive shop . With a large group of divers just departed it would be only me , Jos and another diver from Australia for the next several days . SIDE has established more than 40 dive-sites within 5-40 minutes ' boat-ride , and the evening before I had given Jos my critter and wreck wish-list . To start he had selected Shark Point , a spur of barrier reef extending into deep ocean on the seaward side of the expansive Roviana Lagoon . We began the dive at 30m along a vertical wall festooned with jumbo seafans in a variety of colours , and followed the sweep of the current to the point . Almost immediately we were visited by a grey reef shark , perhaps the largest I 'd ever seen , but it kept a typical arm 's length away , preventing a good image with my wide-angle kit . As we approached the end of the spur , the wall began to slope gently and the seafans gave way to colourful tabling corals , competing for limited space . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pink skunk anemonefish , more suited to my camera set-up . As we dived on through the day , I racked up a satisfying collection of images that would keep me busy later at the computer -- assuming that I could keep my eyes open . The following day Jos had a plan for us to complete four dives , beginning on the edge of SIDE 's diving range . " I want to start at Mbigo Mbigo , because we should have good morning light to capture the sun 's rays in images , " he explained . " The reef is on the outer edge of the lagoon , adjacent to blue water , so we should have exceptional visibility . And the spur-and-groove reef system should provide for some dramatic photography . " Our panga pilot navigated expertly around shallow brown and green bommies and over pearly-white sandbars between the islands of my dreams . Walt Disney could not have designed a better boat-ride in a tropical paradise . By 8.30am we rolled into a smooth clear ocean . I rode the light @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to absorb the spectacular vista , then gently glided down over the lip of the outer wall into 300m of water . The dive was all Jos had promised , perfect for shooting sun-rays against a canyon backdrop of reef structure . If only my strobes could achieve the impossible energy required to illuminate the distant pastel vista that I knew existed at 20m . Jos suggested that it might be time to switch to macro for our last dive of the day at Secret Spot . " This is one of SIDE 's favourite sites , " he said . " It 's a vertical wall with a strong current pushing in one or the other direction , depending on the tide . And the wall has the most varieties of nudibranchs of any reef we dive . " IT WAS LATE AFTERNOON by the time we had offgassed enough to dive Secret Spot but I struggled to find nudis in the low light and strong current . However , I was suddenly happy with the macro kit when I came across a rare purple-violet magnificent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The mated pair posed perfectly , and I was congratulating myself when Jos pointed up to the reef crown at the top of the wall . There , in 2m depth , thousands of surgeonfish were beginning to spawn ; rapidly rocketing up out of the vast school in small groups to milk the water with released gametes from both sexes . I shook my head in disbelief ; I had the wrong kit , but simply enjoyed the spectacular display of raw biology until it was time to surface . Over the following days I worked through my wish-list , including the endemic white bonnet anemonefish . With a laptop flush with reef-work , it was time to dive a couple of aircraft shot down during WW2 . Our final dives included the small aerial-combat P-39 Airacobra fighter and Douglas SBD-4 Dauntless dive-bomber . Discovered only in 2011 , little is known about the fighter , which Jos believes was part of the USAAF 68th Squadron . It lies on a sandy bottom at 27m , in a relatively clearwater channel between two islands @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , it remains photogenic with its propeller , cockpit , left wing and tail still intact . It was an excellent dive , and I surfaced contentedly . The Dauntless eternally rests in only 13m in Rendova Harbor . Japanese anti-aircraft fire caught it during an aerial raid on Munda in July 1943 , but pilot Jim Dougherty managed to crash-land without casualties . In an amazing bit of follow-on history , he returned to Munda on the 50th anniversary of the battle and dived the wreck ! ( see Lost Warriors of the South Pacific on YouTube ) . I thought about Dougherty 's bravery and that of other aviators on both sides of the war as I descended through murky harbour water to the well-preserved wreck . At the nose I carefully settled to the soft bottom , avoiding a plume of silt , and waited for Jos to swim into the viewfinder . I assured him back aboard the panga that my mission was to make him a " rock star " with a magazine cover shot . We laughed at the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ our final return to SIDE and the Agnes under another Disneyesque sunset . THE FOLLOWING DAY I was catching a 5pm flight to Honiara for stage two of my Solomon Islands adventure , so had time to kill . I took a cab into the jungle to visit Barney Paulson , a local man who has collected artefacts for a semi-official WW2 museum in a shed beside his house . His collection includes everything from soldiers ' dog-tags to bayonets and light machine-guns . It was well worth the time to hear the fascinating stories about his wartime treasures . Skull Island . I then joined two women , an Australian journalist and a local professional from the tourism bureau , on a water taxi to Skull Island . The driver would not let us off the panga until he had completed an incantation that would ensure proper " permission " to visit the shrines without " incident " . Returning to the panga , the tourism bureau representative confided to the Australian that she felt " something bad " was going to happen . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ my outer ear began to hurt on the way back to the hotel . By the time I was in the air I was in considerable pain , and worried about being able to dive . Things got worse as the evening wore on but the story of my malady , perhaps the result of somehow angering ancient chieftains on Skull Island , must wait until the second part of this report at a later date . Stay tuned ... GETTING THERE> Fly from London to Brisbane , Australia , the gateway city to the Solomon Islands . Solomon Airlines has just started flying direct to Munda , saving a stop and a smaller commuter flight .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'get' is used transitively with 'out of being on the LEP Board' as a complement, but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it expresses a benefit or result derived from the action, which is not characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Jurgen Klopp has given the all clear for Virgil van Dijk to play against Leicester . And that is a huge relief for the Liverpool boss , who was facing a defensive headache with right back Trent Alexander-Arnold still injured , and replacement James Milner suspended . Van Dijk has been suffering with a bout of sickness , and there were fears he could miss the game after being ruled out of training over the weekend . But the manager revealed his key player DID train on Monday , albeit away from the rest of the first team squad , and would also do a session on Tuesday afternoon , which would clear him to play at Anfield . That would also clear the way for Fabinho -- who was also suffering from sickness but was given the all clear yesterday -- to switch from centre half to right back , a position he regularly plays with Brazil . Speaking about his injury list , Klopp explained that a week-long warm weather break in Dubai , where his squad were given plenty of down town to recover , has allowed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Virgil was a little ill but he trained yesterday , so we will see . He will train today , so we will see with him , " he explained . " Gini ( Wijnaldum ) trained , Fabinho will train today , Trent ( Alexander-Arnold ) is getting closer and closer and it looks all very positive , but he will not be ready for tomorrow . Joe ( Gomez ) is a no . " Klopp joked that his side deserved praise for the way they managed a social and training trip to Dubai without appearing in the media once : " I 'm proud of them , that we were able to do that in 2019 ... really nothing on social media ? ! " There was also positive news over Wijnaldum ( Image : AFP/Getty Images ) But he said it was serious business on their break , with the Reds able to use the time to sort out fitness for those players who have appeared frequently this year , and needed recovery . " It was good that we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not been possible for a few players . Now we had a few days , and we could wait for a few players , which is important . We will see who can play . " Klopp refused to be drawn on who will play right back in the absence of Alexander-Arnold and Milner , though the clearest option would be to play Fabinho , with Wijnaldum slotting into the midfield alongside Jordan Henderson . Asked about who will play at right back , he said : " You have to wait until tomorrow ! We will play with a right-back ... or a wing-back . Wow ! Oooooooooh ! ! " |

The mother of Wade Robson had told friends that her son repeatedly denied being sexually abused by Michael Jackson even years after his death . Joy Robson said she quizzed Wade in private about the claims but he denied anything had happened ' time and time again ' , repeating the same denials given in sworn testimony and in numerous media interviews - even keeping quiet when the King of Pop died in 2009 , according to a source close to the Robson family . Robson eventually publicly changed his story in 2013 and an explosive documentary called Leaving Neverland now details his claims of horrific sexual abuse . The film -- which had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City , Utah last Friday - features the shocking claims made by Robson and James Safechuck . A family source told DailyMailTV : ' When Wade finally came clean and told his family he was abused by Michael Jackson for years , his mom Joy was as shocked as anyone . The mother of Michael Jackson ' victim ' Wade Robson ( pictured with the pop star in an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ being sexually abused by the singer Joy Robson ( pictured leaving court during Jackson 's 2005 trial ) served as a character witness for Michael and ' had no reason to believe her son was abused .

She had asked him time and time again . ' Even after Michael died in 2009 , Wade stuck to his story . ' Joy trusted Michael implicitly with her son and on one occasion she spent the night at Neverland herself and she , Wade and Michael shared a bed and watched movies and had milk and cookies . ' It was kind of a slumber party vibe under a duvet and in her mind , completely innocent . She was convinced Wade was safe with Michael , viewing him as an uncle-figure . ' Australian native Robson , 36 , maintained Jackson @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . According to his blog , he claims it was n't until he entered therapy in 2012 that he felt comfortable enough to open up and tell the shocking truth . But according to a statement issued by Jackson 's estate in response to the Leaving Neverland film , Robson had tried to get a job with the Michael Jackson ONE - Cirque de Soleil show in Las Vegas during this period but was turned down . Following that snub , it 's claimed Robson tried to cash in by shopping a book deal about his bombshell abuse claims , but a string of major publishers ' would n't touch it , ' according to the family source . His next move was to sue the Jackson estate in 2013 for what his attorneys described as molestation that spanned a seven-year period , but the case was tossed . A court ruled in 2015 , however , that Robson had filed the lawsuit too late to get his hands on any of Jackson 's estate . And in the judge 's summary ruling in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ which were the two remaining defendants in the case , were not liable for Robson 's exposure to the singer . The judge did not rule on the credibility of Robson 's allegations , however .

The film , directed by Dan Reed ( center ) is centered around the shocking claims made by Robson and second victim James Safechuck ( far right ) Accuser : Australian native , Wade Robson , now 36 , changed his story in 2013 explaining he did not feel comfortable enough to speak about his experience until entering therapy Wade 's mother Joy had been so convinced that her son was telling the truth about Jackson 's innocence that she sat down with a ghostwriter for a book written by the singer 's brother Jermaine Jackson in 2011- she is thanked in the acknowledgements by Jermaine . She acted as character witness for Jackson and helped defend Michael in a chapter entitled ' Body of Lies @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Are Not Alone : Michael , Through a Brother 's Eyes .

' Jermaine also wrote about how people focus on boys in Michael 's bed but he wrote : ' Young girls played in his bedroom and jumped into those same beds . I also know that some of the parents would join their sons and daughters and Michael in bed and snuggle up to watch a movie with popcorn . ' Robson , a dancer who has worked with Britney Spears and NSYNC , met Jackson when he was five-years-old and the pair became close .

And I can tell you right now that if he had , I would n't be here right now . ' Mesereau asked : ' Has Mr Jackson ever touched you in a sexual way ? ' to which Robson answered : ' Never .

The film focuses on his and James Safechuck 's accounts of how they were raped and molested by the singer at his Neverland Ranch . It claims Jackson gave his young male victims jewelry in exchange for sexual acts and even accuses the star of staging a mock wedding complete with vows and a diamond ring with one boy , film critics who have seen the documentary have said .

The sentence 'scare people out of voting' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'scare' falls under the category of means to achieve a goal by arousing fear (category c). The NP subject 'it' (referring to the laws) is an inanimate force, and the NP object 'people' is a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'voting'. The interpretation is prevention, as the laws are designed to prevent people from voting. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence 'Gordon Strachan rules himself out of Hibernian job' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Here, 'Gordon Strachan' is the NP subject, 'rules' is V1, 'himself' is the NP object (a reflexive pronoun coreferential with the subject), and 'out of Hibernian job' can be interpreted as 'out of being in the Hibernian job', which aligns with the movement/extraction interpretation. The verb 'rules' can be categorized under 'By means of exerting force or pressure, sometimes understood metaphorically'. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Gordon Strachan appears to have ruled himself out of the Hibernian job after rumours swiftly circulated that the former Scotland manager was set to replace Neil Lennon . A weekend of tumult at Easter Road ended with Lennon being suspended and with the Northern Irishman set for the exit door , Strachan emerged as the favourite to step into the position . In his latest column for Paddy Power , however , Strachan poured cold water on the speculation . While the Edinburgh-born 61-year-old will be in the capital this week , he stated that one of the reasons was to visit his mum not to venture down Leith Walk for crunch talks . He wrote : " If anyone sees me in Edinburgh on Thursday , I 'm there to talk about my youth football ideas with the government and local councils and so on -- not interviewing for the Hibs job . I 'm staying with my mother for a few days , not heading for a job interview . " A @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Lennon 's demise but Strachan , expressed sympathy with the former Celtic manager and delivered a withering assessment of modern day footballers . He added : " It seems like someone has got sacked for raising their voice and telling a player straight . For doing something you see in any business . You 'll hear voices raised in offices across the country . It 's nothing . And I thought footballers want to be told the truth . You 're always hearing them say , I just want my manager to be straight with me . But it 's like what Jack Nicholson said to Tom Cruise -- you ca n't handle the truth . " You give modern day players the truth and they crumble . What they actually want is a nice truth . I watched Jurgen Klopp training in Dortmund , and saw him speaking in more than a loud voice to superstars . You only hear about these incidents when things are n't going well . You ca n't push anyone anymore . It was the same for me in my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ new levels and got the best out of us . " When I was Scotland manager , we played Italy in Malta , and it was 0-0 at half time . Myself , Mark McGhee and Stuart McCall were trying to give a plan for the second half , but we could n't speak for the noise coming from next door . " We looked outside and you saw all the Italian coaches and subs stood there , waiting , while the 11 players who had been on the pitch sat inside while Conte raged at them . " So if they can deal with it , and Klopp 's players , there should be even more justification for Neil Lennon shouted at his players , because these players need pushing . World Class players deal with it , so why not players who play for Hibs ? I think it 's only a problem if the players themselves are n't playing well , or if the team is losing . " People who are successful talk about managers who drive them to the top , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fail are the ones who say they got bullied . There 's a correlation between allegations of bullying and failure . " I rarely see people who are successful and winning things come out and say they 're being bullied . The other phrase that keeps coming up is " being disrespected " . When I was a player , I was too busy working on winning something to justify having someone 's respect .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The verb 'get' is used transitively with 'pleasure' as its object, but the construction does not involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

It was summer 1981 , and the towns and cities of Britain were alight . There had been riots in Brixton , south London , that April and on 10 July there were more -- and not just in Brixton . Other parts of the city followed . And so did a long list of other places , from the unsurprising -- Sheffield , Preston , Leicester -- to the ones where the idea of a riot might have been expected to have disappeared with Captain Swing : Cirencester , Aldershot . ' I was sitting in my flat watching the news , the riots happening all over the place , ' says Horace Panter , the bass player of the Specials . ' And " Ghost Town " was No. 1 . ' ' Ghost Town ' was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reputation as one of the great British bands . It is a nightmarishly drunken piece of music , haunted funfair reggae that predicted the violent rage spreading through desolate British towns . Encore , their latest and the first album Hall has made with the Specials in 38 years , emerges at a barely less febrile time , when once again , as ' Ghost Town ' noted , ' the people getting angry ' . It 's unlikely that it will soundtrack the times as the Specials did from 1979 to 1981 , when a string of singles managed to be both gloriously danceable and grimly realistic about how crappy the world was , especially if you lived in Coventry . But it 's no less engaged with the world , despite its makers ' disgust with that world . ' I still feel politically engaged , ' Hall says . ' But engaged in confusion , really . I come from a very strong Labour background , and in the past 20 years my love of the Labour party has dropped and dropped . And now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I question my vote . Because I would have blindly voted Labour when I was 22 , but now I would n't . I think the likes of Jeremy Corbyn and Diane Abbott do n't help . ' I suggest that when surveying parliament at the moment , it appears to be a place where donkeys are led by donkeys . It does n't offer a lot of hope . Panter , laughs . ' I 'm glad you said that . Because that 's how I feel . ' One of the songs on the new record , ' The Life and Times ( of a Man Called Depression ) ' , deals with one of the constants of Hall 's life : mental illness . ' I had suffered properly since I was 12 , ' he says . ' I 've had problems since then , sometimes huge . By my mid-twenties I had a really bad breakdown , but I was reluctant to take medication because my only experience was when I was 13 and the GP prescribed Valium . Which meant that I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ go to school , I did n't do anything . I just sat on my bed rocking for eight months . Twelve years ago it was really serious , so I started taking medication . And it 's been amazing . Now I do n't get those huge episodes . ' In his thirties , Hall self-medicated with gin , and became an alcoholic as a result . For the past 12 years it 's been pills . ' The lovely thing about taking anti-psychotic pills is that the desire to kill a family of four just disappears , ' Hall says . ' Which is great . ' He laughs . I do n't know if he 's joking . The cause of Hall 's depression , the reason he was given Valium as a child , was covered in an old song , ' Well Fancy That ! ' , released in 1983 by Fun Boy Three . ' It was about an episode where I was abducted , taken to France and sexually abused for four days . And then punched in the face and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ life-changing . I still have that illness today and I will still have it in ten years ' time , and it 's important for me to talk about that . ' So the Specials , first time round , had Hall 's depression -- though no one talked about it -- the dictatorial tendencies of original lead singer Jerry Dammers , and the combustibility that comes from having seven members with different tastes , from different backgrounds . ' Some people did n't do very much in the way of drink and drugs , some people smoked marijuana , some people took cocaine and amphetamines , ' Panter says . ' So you had three different states at the same time in the same van . The people going far too fast are not going to get on with the people going really slowly . And then there were other people who did n't take anything trying to balance the whole thing . It was very difficult . There were the different recreational activities , and we were from different classes as well . Brad John Bradbury , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Neville and Lynval came over in the Windrush generation , and Terry and Roddy Byers , guitarist were the sons of working-class Coventry people . That was another reason the band split up , the different classes . ' And then there were the fans . The gigs the Specials played through 1979 and 1980 have been eulogised as some of the most exciting ever by a British band . But partly that was because of the danger that accompanied them : punch-ups in the crowds , confrontations with visiting National Front members , stage invasions . It all seemed incredibly exciting to those seeing it once , but less so when it was your workplace . ' It was absolutely tragic when it stopped being fun , ' Panter says . ' I did n't like stage invasions . The second big tour we did , in England in 1980 , I went onstage not looking forward to playing those songs . It was trepidation , wondering at which song we were going to get 250 of Cardiff 's finest on stage drunk , and then have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . ' And through it all , Hall would stand centre stage , unmoved , looking bored to tears , as he always did . As a kid , I found him faintly terrifying when the Specials appeared on Top of the Pops . He was breaking all the rules of television . Even the punk groups looked as though they were engaged , even if they were doing so in an odd way . But Hall looked like he did n't care , and the people who do n't care are always the ones to be afraid of . ' Well , ' Hall says , ' I did n't care . I still do n't care . I do n't find it necessary to smile or move . I do n't do that at home . Why should I do it at work ? Plus , I do n't care . I honestly did n't give it that much thought . ' Do you get any pleasure out of performing ? ' Absolutely none . That 's why I do it . ' He laughs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stage where I turn round and I 've got Horace and Lynval , who I 've known most of my life , and we 're sharing something . That 's my night out . Do n't get out much . ' These days , it 's all much more convivial than it used to be . The Specials tour in a less frenetic manner . Hall observes that prescription drugs have replaced the non-prescription drugs . Panter notes that these days , because no one is speeding their nut off , it is possible for one member to suggest changes to a song without being given a black eye by someone else . How different it all might have been had the Specials followed the advice of their first mentor . Their first demos were recorded by a local DJ in Coventry called Pete Waterman . ' I remember him saying to me : " You 're the frontman . What you need to do is wear a black polo-neck jumper with some sort of gold around your neck that draws the people in , " ' Hall @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . ' |

But after years of delays , two crashes resulting in four deaths and almost $1bn ( ? 770m ) of investment , much of it from his personal fortune , Branson was enjoying his moment in the sub-orbital sun . ' Space feels tantalisingly close now , ' he grinned after Unity went into a soft glide to return to Earth , coming to a halt on the runway of Mojave Air & Space Port in California . Branson has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ year for more than a decade , and every year he has disappointed . But this year -- 50 years since Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin first stepped on to the Moon -- space tourism is looking like it might , at last , lift off . ' My best guess is that I 'll be in space within a few months , ' Branson says . ' We 'll obviously get all the data back from this spaceship . We 'll then do another flight . We 'll get the data back from that . Once they 're 100 per cent sure that every box is ticked , then I plan to go up . I have to go myself first . ' Virgin Galactic sources say there will be three to four more test flights this year . More than 600 people have signed up to fly on Virgin Galactic , Branson says . Angelina Jolie , Brad Pitt , Leonardo DiCaprio , Tom Hanks , Ashton Kutcher , Russell Brand , Katy Perry , Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber are rumoured to have plonked down @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to see Earth from space and enjoy four minutes of weightlessness . Only six can go at one time , with the two pilots . Everyone gets a window seat . Over time Branson thinks the fares will come down to around $50,000 . If Branson and friends do not make it as fast as he hopes , rival space cowboys may become the first to blast their way into the new era of commercial space travel . Amazon founder and the world 's richest man , Jeff Bezos , successfully completed the ninth test flight of his New Shepard reusable suborbital rocket last year , pushing past the K ? rm ? n line to 119km , a new record . The crew pod was unoccupied -- unless you count the company 's test flight dummy , Mannequin Skywalker , dressed in a blue flight suit . The capsule and the rocket that propels it landed safely back on Earth . Bezos , whose space firm is called Blue Origin and is funded with $1bn of his estimated $150bn fortune , is ' hopeful ' he will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ first , then paying passengers . They will travel on a second , larger rocket called New Glenn and he expects to sell tickets for between $200,000 and $300,000 . Space travel is ' the most important thing ' he 's currently working on . It 's certainly more fun and probably less challenging than his divorce from his wife , MacKenzie . Giving away half of his fortune has got to hurt -- even if it will still leave him with roughly $75bn . If neither Branson nor Bezos makes commercial space flight feasible this year or next , there 's a chance that the wild man of the cosmos , Elon Musk , will . His firm SpaceX and Nasa plan to conduct a February test flight of his new Crew Dragon to the International Space Station . If it is successful , Nasa astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley will carry out a manned mission later this year . Nasa is co-funding the Crew Dragon project because it wants to use the craft to ferry astronauts to and from the International Space Station . Right now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and , hopefully , back ) is on Russian Soyuz capsules . These hybrid balloon-parachutes could be used to slow spacecraft before landing on other planets in the future But Musk faces competition from the Boeing CST-100 Starliner , which will blast into orbit -- albeit unmanned -- in March . And though he has plenty more competitors , Musk may be his own worst enemy . His increasingly erratic behaviour is unsettling investors and wannabe passengers . He appeared on a radio talk show last year apparently smoking marijuana , which prompted Nasa to launch an investigation into SpaceX 's culture and safety . Last September , he agreed to pay a $20m fine imposed by the US Securities and Exchange Commission for abruptly announcing on Twitter that he had secured funding to take his electric car firm Tesla private -- and then deciding not to follow through on the plan . He also attracted worldwide opprobrium last year when he tweeted that Vern Unsworth , the British diver who helped to rescue 12 boys and their football coach who were trapped in a cave in Thailand @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's suggested rescue by micro-submarine as hopelessly impractical . The billionaire later apologised . Yusaku Maezawa , the Japanese billionaire owner of online fashion retailer Zozo , has signed up to be the first person to blast off with SpaceX whenever flights around the Moon for civilians begin . The former drummer in a punk band says he plans to make his Moon flight aboard Musk 's other spacecraft , the Starship , formerly known as the Big Falcon Rocket . ' He 's a very brave person to do this , ' Musk said , scarcely inspiring confidence . What 's driving the new space race ? In part it 's Nasa 's decision to come back down to Earth . After winning the battle to put a man on the Moon , America saw little benefit in carrying on . Instead , it developed a space shuttle that was supposed to make getting into orbit cheap , reliable and routine . More than 130 shuttle flights between 1981 to 2011 went some way to realising the last of those goals . But getting into space remained @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1986 and Columbia in 2003 , exploded , killing all on board . The programme was axed in 2011 . But it is good old-fashioned ego and money that are the rocket-fuel of the private-sector rivalry . Being the first ' astropreneur ' to commercialise space travel will give Bezos , Branson or Musk bragging rights for life . And there 's cash at stake , too . Lots of it . Analysts estimate that the global space industry will grow from about $400bn now to more than $1 trillion by 2040 . ' If you can create the best -- the best hotel chain , the best clubs , the best spaceship company -- it 'll become very valuable , ' Branson says . He values Virgin Galactic and his satellite-launching spin-off , Virgin Orbit , at ' some billions of dollars ' , but insists that they could soon be worth ' many billions ' . " Becoming a multi-planet species beats the hell out of being a single-planet species " Elon Musk As well as a new tourism sector , Branson has his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , where lower gravity and lack of air resistance would vastly save on time and fuel . He believes it will be possible , in his lifetime , to fly ' hypersonic ' through space from London to Australia in a couple of hours . Sydney for lunch , anyone ? Goldman Sachs and Bank of America have created dedicated teams to conduct financial research on the emerging space travel sector . Wall Street likens it to bioscience : an area that will produce big ' hits ' for investors over the long term , even if the short-term science seems risky . As well as boosting their bank balances , the three billionaires think that space travel will also benefit humankind in general . Musk wants to set up permanent colonies on the Moon and ( ultimately ) Mars to guarantee our survival in the event that Earth suffers a devastating asteroid strike or global pandemic . ' Becoming a multi-planet species beats the hell out of being a single-planet species , ' he says with typical ambition . Many moons : Jupiter dwarfs Io , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that many of us will one day work in space , in manufacturing and mining . Asteroids hold minerals that will eventually be exhausted on Earth .

' The only way to protect it is eventually to move heavy industry off Earth . Space is a much better place to do heavy manufacturing . In space , you have 24/ 7 solar power . Every kind of element is available . ' Branson hopes that suborbital flight will change our view of the Earth . ' I believe that , once people have gone to space , they will come back with renewed enthusiasm to try and tackle what is happening on this planet . From space you do n't see the barriers of colour and religion and politics that divide this world . The world needs space .

When it comes to lift-off time , will all those who have signed up really go ? Around 24 passengers pulled out of flying with Branson after the 2014 crash .

But the urban spacemen have achieved one thing : they have made it possible for any of us -- for a price -- to knock on heaven 's door . And that 's a stellar achievement . |

Two studies published last month described promising new approaches which could stop HIV infecting cells . They could either eliminate or permanently suppress the activity of the so-called ' reservoir ' cells which are the source of new virus in people taken off antiretroviral therapy ( ART ) , and are the reason HIV infection is lifelong . The first class of drugs starve cells of the ' fuel ' they need to produce HIV , while the second permamently suppresses the spark that ignites that fuel , so to speak . A team from the Institut Pasteur in Paris found that the vulnerability of T-cells to infection was critically dependent on how fast they are metabolising -- how high their energy demand is and how fast they are turning fuels like glucose into energy . It found that cells with a high energy consumption are far more vulnerable to infection , and that although their speed of metabolism did correlate to what kind of T-cell they were , it was an independent kind of vulnerability to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ drugs . By slowing down cells ' metabolism by feeding them with a ' dummy ' inactive form of glucose called 2-DG , they were able to selectively kill HIV-infected cells in the lab dish , even ones not actively producing HIV . One advantage of 2-DG is that it can be produced cheaply and is already under investigation in cancer , as a way of ' starving ' tumour cells of energy . In the other study a team from the University of Pittsburgh screened a number of compounds that interfere with the genetic process that cause cells to become active -- which means , in the case of HIV reservoir cells , that they start producing virus again . If cell activation , even off ART , could be prevented , then this would provide long-term remission from HIV infection -- a so-called functional cure . This potential cure strategy has been called ' block and lock ' by researchers , as it depends on suppressing HIV reservoir cells , as opposed to ' kick and kill ' , which is based on activating them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dCA , was found in experiments on mice in 2015 . The Pittsburgh team screened a number of other compounds for similar activity and found one , PF-3758309 , which was active at very low doses . The next part of the research will look at whether its suppressive effects in reservoir cells persist . PF-3758309 is also under investigation as a cancer therapy . It has been known for many years that T-cells that are more activated , meaning that they display markers on their surface like CD38 that show how reactive they are to infections , and more differentiated , meaning that they display markers such as CD45RA indicating that they have developed specialised cell-killing ability , are much more likely to be infected with HIV than cells which are quiescent and undifferentiated . Dr Asier S ? ez-Ciri ? n from the Institut Pasteur found that cells ' vulnerability to HIV infection is also dependent on cells ' metabolic ( energy ) requirements ; in particular , how fast they burn glucose . His team did @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ large , cells that were more activated and differentiated also burn glucose faster , which is to be expected , as they are doing more work . They took T-cells and managed to infect 12% of them in the lab dish . The most differentiated cells , T-effector-memory cells , were the most liable to infection , with 20% infected . But , importantly , 0.9% of the least active and differentiated cells , the T-na ? ve cells , were also infected . The one thing that distinguished these low-activation but infected cells was that they had unusually high energy demands for cells of their type . One interesting aspect of the role of glucose metabolism in HIV infection is that it seems to sustain ongoing replication , rather than first infection . For HIV infection to happen at all , cells need to express on their surfaces the receptor molecules CD4 and CCR5 , which are present in greater density on more differentiated cells . But for ongoing , productive infection to be sustained the cell also needs to keep burning glucose at a high @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ some three to five days after initial infection rather than immediately . So drugs that interfered with glucose metabolism may act at a different stage of the viral timeline than entry inhibitors . The scientists therefore cultivated infected cells with several drugs that inhibited glucose metabolism . Such drugs could pose a significant threat of toxicity , as they interfere with one of the most basic and universal biological processes . However , they found that an altered version of glucose , 2-deoxyglucose or 2-DG , " decreased HIV infection of CD4 T-cells with minimal cell toxicity . " This molecule looks like glucose to cellular receptors but ca n't be ' cracked ' to release energy in the way regular glucose can . Its specific effect was to reduce the ability of the cellular machinery to produce viral components . Interestingly , 2-DG worked retrospectively -- it shut down viral replication in cells even if they had been infected eight hours previously , and did so so efficiently that it effectively reversed potential new infections . If HIV does manage to infect cells with low activity @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ quiescent ' reservoir ' cells that are potential sources of future waves of virus rather than cells currently producing lots of viral particles . Importantly , 2-DG reduced the number of both reservoir cells and actively productive ones . 2-DG was considerably less toxic than other metabolic suppressors tried by the researchers . This seemed to be because although it caused a ' glucose famine ' that killed T-cells , it was more likely to kill HIV-infected cells than non-infected cells , probably because their energy requirements are greater . Dr S ? ez-Ciri ? n 's team did not just experiment on cells infected in the lab dish ; they also took T-cells from six people with HIV on ART , added a cellular activating chemical , and then added 2-DG . The glucose analogue potently stopped the T-cells from reactivating and producing new virus . These experiments are early-stage preclinical investigations , and many steps will be needed to find out if using metabolic inhibitors is safe . But they have found a new vulnerability of HIV to a class of molecules that has already @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The fact that they work on cellular rather than viral machinery suggests that viral resistance might not be a problem , and they may hold the potential to be used as agents that could preferentially kill HIV-infected reservoir cells .

' Kick and kill ' has produced rather disappointing results so far ; while some drugs have certainly reversed latency ( i.e. ' woken up ' reservoir cells ) , the reservoir has not shrunk in most experiments .

The sentence 'The first time you made money out of being a musician...' does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction. The NP object 'money' does not function as a causee, and the sentence does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes earning money from an activity, which is not the intended meaning of the construction.

Every week , we ask one artist a set of quick-fire questions that all start with ' the first ' , from their first shows and paycheques to the first time they got drunk . Here , 21-year-old retrograde rebel Yungblud talks signature style , tequila , falling in love , his first ever show and partying with Noel Gallagher Social Content Editor , GQ . Follow her on Instagram at @k.m.johnston and Twitter at @kmejohnston Friday 1 February 2019 Eyeliner , chains , black nail varnish , an unruly shock of dyed-black hair and the kind of electric on-stage energy that would make Johnny Rotten proud : Yungblud is very much the poster boy for new-era punk . Hailing from Doncaster , 21-year-old Yungblud - real-name Dominic Harrison - has already built quite the cult following , with his self-described " protest songs " gaining traction with disaffected youth on both sides of the pond . With more than 90 million streams under his belt to date , two of his songs were used on the soundtrack of Netflix 's mega-hit 13 Reasons Why @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ where he has just finished touring . To put into perspective just how popular Yungblud is becoming : the video for " Loner " racked up more than a million YouTube views in a week . Having grown up on a diet of Marilyn Manson , Eminem , Arctic Monkeys and Lady Gaga , Harrison makes genre-bending alt-rock tinged with ska , hip hop , Britpop and the sort of American influence you 'd associate with bands such as Green Day . He 's a retrograde with a reputation for being " woke " , thanks to his socially conscious lyricism and a no-filter approach to interviews . On his debut album , 21st Century Liability , you 'll find songs such as " Polygraph Culture " about sexual assault , " I Love You Will You Marry Me " , which deals with corporate greed , and " Machine Gun -- F*ck The NRA " about , you guessed it , gun control in the US .

×
The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks a VP2[-ing] predicate and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'out of spring training' functions as a prepositional phrase indicating origin or source, not as part of the construction.

THE HAGERTY HOUSEHOLD , located in a small Ohio town named Defiance , operates under a short but firm set of tenets . The first involves work . Hagertys work . Hartsell Dodrill , Bretta Hagerty 's father , worked afternoon shifts in a coal mine when he was playing college football and basketball . Gene Hagerty , John Hagerty 's father , worked in the steel mill in Steubenville . John Hagerty still works , the past 23 years as a journeyman millwright at the GM plant . Nothing he and Bretta taught their three children was as important as how work -- and the honor of it -- carried the family from generation to generation . Luke Hagerty , the eldest of the siblings , learned about work through sports . He played everything , though baseball came most naturally . When other kids struggled to throw strikes , he feathered the ball over the plate with uncanny ease . He did n't exactly love the game , and he knew next to nothing about it . Before his senior year , when Hagerty was going to quit and focus on basketball , his high @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ standing 6-foot-7 and throwing left-handed was unique . " Really ? " Hagerty responded . From washed-up stars to guys who 've never lived up to their paychecks and one slugger who is out of baseball , we examine MLB 's biggest money mistakes . 2 Related He could play baseball in college if he worked , Held said , so Hagerty did , and Ball State offered him books and a spot on the team . And when he got there , someone told Hagerty he could be a first-round pick if he threw 94 mph . His fastball sat at 82 mph at the time , so he spent the next three years building up his arm , adding a tick here or there . By his junior year , he threw 94 . The Chicago Cubs chose him with the 32nd pick in the first round of the 2002 draft and gave him more than $1 million to sign . Hagerty went to the Cubs ' affiliate in Boise , Idaho , and dominated , and it was supposed to be the start @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he could be in the major leagues by the next September . He chuckles at that now , the salad days , before he lost the ability to do what was so fundamental : throw a baseball . Before he really learned what it meant to work , and before he had any idea what he could be , and before he was 37 years old , sitting in a hotel room on the outskirts of Seattle , 12 years removed from his last pitch in organized baseball , unable to sleep , his mind racing at 2 a.m. , wondering if he actually could convince a room of scouts that he was n't just some crazy old man who thinks he can still pitch . EVERY DAY , LUKE Hagerty woke up and said the same thing : " I 'm going to be fine . " This was all a bad dream . Opening his eyes would end it . He forgot how to pitch in an instant . He would remember just as quickly . He said this in 2005 , and then in 2006 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in 2008 , when baseball gave up on him . Hagerty had gone to spring training with the Cubs in 2003 full of promise and left on a plane to Alabama , where Dr. James Andrews diagnosed him with a torn ulnar collateral ligament in his pitching elbow . Tommy John surgery kept Hagerty out for 2003 and most of 2004 . His arm hurt throughout the rehabilitation . He forged ahead , When the Cubs did not add him to their 40-man roster that offseason , the Florida Marlins acquired Hagerty during the Rule 5 draft , in which teams poach young , usually flawed players . Hagerty 's fastball had lost its zip upon his return . The Marlins wanted him anyway . Early in spring training , before he was set to throw a live batting practice session , Hagerty surveyed the field . He saw Miguel Cabrera , Carlos Delgado , Mike Lowell , Paul Lo Duca , Luis Castillo . All of them were All-Stars . Typically prior to throwing , Hagerty would visualize what he wanted to happen . When he closed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ batter with a pitch . Just like that , his ability to throw a baseball over a 17-inch-wide plate vanished . Whatever you want to call the malady -- the yips , the thing , the monster -- it attacks like a snake that coils itself around its prey . It squeezes and squeezes and squeezes , and then it swallows what 's left whole . It consumed Steve Blass , Mackey Sasser , Chuck Knoblauch , Rick Ankiel , countless others no one knows because , like Hagerty , they never made it . " I usually tell people it 's like your signature , " Hagerty says . " You know how to write your name . Someone gives you a piece of paper and a pen and you can write it . Maybe there 's variance . It was like someone gave me a pen , and it was scribble all over the paper . It made no sense . " The yips are an exercise in loneliness . Nobody is quite sure what to do , what to say . " I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ -- just act like everything 's normal , " says Mark Reed , one of Hagerty 's catchers in 2005 with Class A Boise , where Hagerty went after the Marlins sent him back to the Cubs . " I remember having to stay in the squat . The ball is flying over fences and into nets and onto fields . I knew I had to be ready to be a hockey goalie but also be ready to jump up and dive for something . " I never wanted to show it . I just wanted to be prepared to make him look like , dude , it 's no big deal . I wanted him to feel like , You 're not that far off . You 're not that far off . It was preparing for the worst , but when he 'd throw four or five balls to the backstop , getting it to him and making it seem like it was all good -- he knew exactly what he was going through . You see the guy trying as hard as he can and not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I felt so bad for the guy . All I heard about him was greatness . " That year , Hagerty threw 6 ? innings . He walked 30 , allowed 14 hits , threw nine wild pitches and hit four batters . He turned himself into a test subject to conquer it . Coaches set up targets behind Hagerty 's back , and he whirled 180 degrees and tried to hit them . They wanted to detach his thoughts from learned physical behaviors . That did n't work . Neither did the conversations with sports psychologists or private throwing sessions away from teammates in batting cages or anything else . One time , when he was starting a game , Hagerty threw two warm-up pitches and then waved off the catcher . " I 'm good , " he said . " I 'm ready . " His left hand was shaking . He was scared to throw any more warm-ups . The next season was no better . With Class A Daytona , Hagerty threw three innings and walked nine batters . The Cubs stuck with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , when the wildness would abate . The misses would n't miss by as much . Hagerty would leave throwing sessions upbeat . This is it . This is the turning point . This is where the work pays off . And then he would be so wild pregame he worried he was going to hit a hot dog vendor with a ball . " I usually tell people it 's like your signature . You know how to write your name . Someone gives you a piece of paper and a pen and you can write it . Maybe there 's variance . It was like someone gave me a pen , and it was scribble all over the paper . It made no sense . " Luke Hagerty on the yips During the offseason , Hagerty returned to Defiance . Held ran a fall-ball camp for local kids in which he taught the fundamentals of throwing . Hagerty attended . Next to middle schoolers who looked half his size , he did drills on one knee , trying to remember how to throw . In 2007 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Rockford Riverhawks . He walked eight in 1 ? innings . The next year , he went into camp with the Chicago White Sox . They cut him mid-spring . Hagerty latched on with the Schaumburg Flyers , an indy-ball team about 30 miles west of Chicago . He lasted eight games . " As long as they 're not telling me to go home , I 'm gon na come , " Hagerty says . " We did early work . We did late work . We did all kinds of stuff . Working 's easy when you know how to do it . People would 've quit . I just could n't quit . I did n't care . Of course I was embarrassed and everything , but I could n't quit . I 'm going to figure this out . I do n't know what it is . I 'm gon na get this . It 's gon na be fine . We 'll be back to normal . We 'll be good . " Hagerty tried to find logic where it did n't exist @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sitting on a hot curb , holding a sack lunch , waiting for a van to pick him up and take him to a game . Bretta never allowed her children to feel sorry for themselves . If there 's a problem , she always said , work through it . " You know what , Luke ? " she said . " If you want to get to the good stuff , you 've got to crawl through that muck . There 's a lot of ways to go . Apparently yours is digging a tunnel to China and back . " After Schaumburg released Hagerty , the calls stopped . So did the bromides . Nobody was telling him he would figure it out anymore . He had taken solace , or at least as much solace as someone so broken can take , from those words . He remembers Oneri Fleita , then the Cubs ' farm director , telling Hagerty sometime around 2006 that when he beats the yips , Fleita simply wants to be in the movie about it . " You feel @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ now . " Your heart bleeds when someone is dealing with that . Anything to motivate him . Anything to make him feel like he can see that light . " Because , man . Who has ever come back from it ? " After posting a 7-4 record with a 3.04 ERA and 92 strikeouts in 83 innings as a junior at Ball State University , Luke Hagerty went to the Cubs with the No. 32 overall pick in the 2002 draft . Courtesy BSU HAGERTY NEEDED A break from baseball after 2008 . He did n't want to watch it , listen to it , hear about it . A year earlier , he had met a cancer researcher named Rachel Rempel . They got married in May 2009 , by which time Hagerty was back in school , studying at Arizona State 's College of Health Solutions . He passed his test to be a certified strength and conditioning specialist and bounced around a few gyms in the Phoenix area before coming to terms with his future . " When you have a dream @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that is your life , " Rachel says . " I do n't know if that ever goes away . That 's part of the challenge when it does . It 's like your identity . You ca n't get rid of that . " When he started X2 Athletic Performance in Scottsdale , Hagerty figured most of his clients would be baseball players . What that meant , of course , was he would need to pick up a baseball again . The first time Hagerty touched a ball after his career ended , nothing mystical happened . No jolt of lightning up his arm or tingling sensation . This was work . This was his job . A gangly teenager who came in to train named Austin Davis would throw the ball to Hagerty , and Hagerty would throw it to him , and it did n't exactly seem natural to Hagerty , but it was n't foreign , either . His left hand did n't tremble . The ball came out firm enough . Nobody there could tell he had the yips . As @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his arm strength . His students marveled . He could hit 94 again . They encouraged him to come back . He shrugged . Maybe . Maybe some day . He and Rachel had a newborn daughter , Elan . He went to throw one afternoon in August 2012 with the Sonoran Explorers in the defunct Freedom Pro Baseball League , and in a quick-and-dirty Facebook post , he said he felt better than he had since his first season with the Cubs : " Its time for the real Luke to make an appance . Its been 10 yrs but I found him . Its about to get nasty . " The real Luke , or at least that version , was n't particularly nasty . Hagerty needed more for X2 . He wanted it to be Phoenix 's most progressive facility . He was an early adopter of teaching using programs with overweight and underweight balls to promote gains in velocity . He searched online for a 4-ounce ball and found the website of Driveline Baseball , a small , performance-focused training lab in Seattle . Hagerty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ want to blindly implement it on teenage arms . Hagerty was his own best test subject . The Driveline program suited him . Lots of throwing with high intensity and velocity into nets . No hitter . No visualizations gone wrong . Hagerty could let balls fly with impunity . He knew the game could be lonely . This time it would be self-imposed . " I did this whole thing to go through the process to see what I 'm capable of , " Hagerty says . " The angle was n't to be like , oh , if I can get back and play again . I just love throwing . It 's fun . I love the challenge . " It was like when he was a kid . Hagerty told John that he wanted to improve at basketball . John bought him a notebook . When you get home from school , he said , shoot from both blocks , both elbows , both wings and the free throw line . Track how many you made . If you do that , you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ probably do n't want to improve that much after all . John would come home from a shift at the plant and crack open the notebook . When a particular day was empty , he reminded Hagerty not to complain about not getting better . Most days were n't empty . When the velocity program worked , and his implementation of it on groups of students showed significant gains , Hagerty grew ravenous for knowledge . He read studies he did n't understand , so he read them again until he did . " Sometimes I feel like I 'm just an idiot , " Hagerty says . " Like , what are you doing ? I want to be as good as I possibly can be at whatever I 'm doing . If that takes work , I do n't care . In the grand scheme of things , I do n't know where that puts me . But I want to be able to figure things out . " As the scope of Driveline 's business grew , and technology enabled pitching labs to flourish , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ after he bought a Rapsodo unit , a camera-and-radar system that captures pitch velocity , RPMs and the axis on which the ball spins . It allows pitchers to take a pitch they like -- in Hagerty 's case , it was two-time Cy Young winner Corey Kluber 's breaking ball -- look up the movement profile captured by the tracking systems inside major league stadiums and try to replicate it indoors . It took hundreds of tries . Hagerty was designing an entirely new pitch for himself through failure . This was n't baseball , though , as much as it was problem-solving , figuring out answers to something that did have them . " I just think about that solitude , " says Bretta , a renowned volleyball coach in northwest Ohio . " You 're in the gym by yourself , and say it 's not working . What do I do next ? There 's a lot of elements that have to be present with him to get through that . " He had been there . He had known that . It prepared @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ go away , Hagerty says . He created an environment that helped him cope . His successes were his and others ' . Austin Davis , that skinny teenager who caught Hagerty 's first throw , grew into a man , ascended through the Philadelphia Phillies ' system after being a 12th-round pick in 2014 and got called up last June . Hagerty flew cross-country the next day . He wanted to see what it looked like when someone from X2 wore a major league uniform . That part puzzled Davis . He always believed someone from X2 would make the big leagues . He just thought it would be Hagerty . This Luke was nasty . His fastball sat in the mid-90s . The radar gun at X2 once flashed 98.9 mph for a pitch off the mound . His breaking ball did n't just mimic Kluber 's . Its movement pattern complemented the horizontal ride of Hagerty 's fastball . He designed a changeup and another breaking ball . He started throwing to hitters . They flailed . " You just see it , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do something with this , " Davis says . " People have been telling him that for years . If he truly decided to go for it , it would n't be a matter of stuff . It would be whether he was willing to do it . " IN SEPTEMBER , HAGERTY met with a woman named Debbie Crews . She studies the brain . Most of her research focused on golf , another sport with cases of the yips . She wanted to test her neurofeedback system on baseball players , and a number of people recommended Hagerty because of how he embraced data . " Pitchers are always fun , " Crews says , though she did n't realize how much she would enjoy Hagerty 's company until he got to talking about himself , his comeback , his yips . Crews was fascinated . She asked if he would be willing to answer a questionnaire . He obliged . It covered five categories : adventure mindset , connect , authentic , forward focused and courage . On almost every reply , Hagerty was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In only two segments were his answers problematic : negative thoughts and courage . This , Crews says , is typical of athletes with the yips . It is almost autoimmune , the way they forever lurk , ready to strike at the most inopportune moment . They manifest themselves physically . They poison psychologically . Luke Hagerty was taken by the Baltimore Orioles in the 2004 Rule 5 Draft , then traded to the Florida Marlins . But the Marlins had to return him to the Cubs after not keeping him on the major league roster for the 2005 season . Photo by Elsa/Getty Images Crews asked Hagerty to go to an archery range that month . The idea was to get Hagerty away from his main sport and into an unfamiliar situation , where he does n't have coping strategies . Everything , Crews says , shows up . When she noticed he was not shooting for the 10-point bull's-eye target , she asked how often Hagerty adopts his game persona . He stopped to think . That 's what was missing . The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his career the first time around . They were not going to kill this chance , too . They had infiltrated deep into Hagerty 's mind , stealing another fundamental element -- his unrelenting competitiveness , the sort that lived inside his lab but was needed to leave it -- and torpedoing it . " He needed to go through it , " Bretta says . " He needed to take ownership of it , carry it around on his shoulder and beat it up every day . He had to understand it . He had to dissect it and figure it out . That was important to him . It was important to him to get to this step . " This step was the biggest . It was what Austin Davis and every kid who walked through X2 's doors said at one point or another when they saw Hagerty light up a radar gun . Try . Just try . Hold a workout . There were always excuses . There always would be . " He 's waiting for things to fall into place , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ going . I said you just have to make a decision , and if you 're going to go , you take steps to get the business covered , your family covered , everything so he can go when he makes it . " She was right . Both Elan , now 8 years old , and her little brother , Lincoln , 6 , were in school . Every day was dragging Hagerty , who turns 38 on April 1 , further from his prime . So , Crews said , strike the negative thoughts . Summon the courage . It will never be the perfect time . Just choose a date and stick to it . He did . Hagerty would spend the next three months training harder than ever , getting to X2 at 10 a.m. for two hours of solitude before opening up the place to his clients , refining pitches and hunting an extra mile of velo and working . And then on Jan. 13 , 2019 , in a facility about 20 minutes south of Seattle , he would try to summon his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ -- and validate everything he 'd done to get there . FINALLY , A LITTLE after 2 a.m. , Hagerty 's mind stopped racing and he fell asleep in that hotel room on the outskirts of Seattle . He was n't a crazy old man . The scouts would see that . His sleep was short-lived . Hagerty woke up around 5:30 and started to get ready to throw the most important 27 pitches of his life . Hagerty found his hotel 's workout facility and took a soak in the hot tub . Then he jumped into the pool . Back and forth he went : hot tub , pool , hot tub , pool . His body needed the shock , as it did sustenance . Dylan Rheault , a minor league pitcher who a couple days earlier hit 98 mph during a workout , texted that Hagerty needed to eat eggs and potatoes . " That 's the velo breakfast , " Rheault wrote . Hagerty needed every last mph he could muster . It was Driveline Pro Day . About 40 scouts from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , one from Nippon Professional Baseball and one from an independent league would travel to Kent , Washington , where Hagerty and 20 other pitchers would throw a bullpen session . Rapsodo and Trackman units would capture every moment in exceptional granularity , with a spreadsheet that tracked pitch velocity featuring seven numbers after the decimal point and 28 other measurements for R&D departments across the game to study . Hagerty did n't need to see them . He understood exactly what he threw . He had studied Brooks Baseball , Baseball Savant , FanGraphs -- the public clearinghouses for modern sabermetric knowledge . His high school coach was right : Standing 6-foot-7 and being left-handed were gifts . So was being curious . " The only way I ever wanted to play again is if my stuff would be at a major league level -- and an above-average major league level , " Hagerty says . " I wanted my worst day to be acceptable . That 's how I judge if I 'm ready or not . You can have the good day . I 've @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't good enough . " All he needed at Driveline was the good day . He walked around the facility awaiting his turn . He stretched . He closed his eyes to visualize . He saw strikes . It felt , Hagerty says , like his days before the yips . When Hagerty was at Ball State and even his first year of pro ball , when his team was losing , he would start to pace . Put me in , he would say , even when it was n't his turn to pitch . Being locked in made the rational slightly irrational . At 11:01 a.m. , Hagerty ascended the mound at Driveline . He wore a trucker hat , a gray T-shirt , black shorts and black cross-trainers . His first throw , filmed in slow motion from the side , sizzled in at 96.3148491 mph . He threw 26 more pitches : 16 fastballs , five sliders , three curveballs and two changeups . Hagerty grunted loudly -- " like a tennis player , " one scout in attendance joked -- when he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ off-speed offerings . His 12th pitch was a fastball clocked at 98.5 mph , the second-hardest ball he has ever thrown . His 25th was the Kluber slider , low and away , executed to perfection . At 11:10 a.m. , 9 minutes , 8 seconds after his first pitch , and more than 12 years after his last pitch that mattered in pro ball , he was done . Nobody there threw like Hagerty . Few anywhere do . His average fastball at pro day registered at 96.9 mph . Only four left-handed relievers in baseball last year threw a harder average fastball than Hagerty offered Jan. 13 . None of the other pitchers at Driveline came within a mile per hour of him . Even though he struggled to throw strikes , and at times missed badly , he was the star of the day . The yips were nowhere to be found . It went well . That 's about all Hagerty told Rachel . He was giddy , clearly , but did n't want to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ much to her about pro day leading up to it , either . It 's not that this entire endeavor was frivolous . It was n't . And it 's not that Hagerty was trying to keep her in the dark , either . Far from it . It 's the residual effects of a dozen years ago , the leftover feelings , the knowledge that baseball is cruel and irrational and illogical and that sometimes , no matter how hard you work , it still does n't reward you . And Rachel understood that . He told her when he had a good day at work ; she told him she was happy . He put up clip after short video clip on YouTube of him throwing a ball hard ; she watched them . He turned their patio into a makeshift bullpen ; she did n't say a thing . He spent countless nights doing arm exercises while they watched " Game of Thrones " or " Downton Abbey " or " Endeavor " or " Stranger Things " ; she thought nothing of it . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Oneri Fleita said : Who has ever come back from it ? WITHIN 12 HOURS , the entire organization was on board . The scout loved him . The video folks offered a thumbs-up . The R&D department was giddy . The Chicago Cubs wanted to sign Luke Hagerty again , 16 ? years after the first time . Andrew Bassett worried he was too late . Bassett is the Cubs ' assistant director of pro scouting , and he was convinced that another team had seen the raw numbers from Hagerty 's pro day session and made him an on-the-spot Godfather offer . He called late at night on the 13th and was relieved when Hagerty said he had n't signed . For 30 minutes , they talked about how the Cubs could maximize the uniqueness of Hagerty 's abilities . Forget his height or age . Inside his facility , amid the solitude , Hagerty had built one of the most talented raw left arms in the world . In the meantime , Kyle Evans had been talking with Josh Knipp . Evans is the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had forged a relationship with Knipp , Hagerty 's agent , the previous year when Chicago signed reliever Justin Hancock . The familiarity helped . What the Cubs did for Hancock -- giving him his first major league opportunity at 27 years old -- they could do for Hagerty . It sounded a touch odd to the Cubs when they thought about it , too . A big league debut for a guy selected the same year as Craig Breslow , the major league veteran the Cubs hired this winter as their director of strategic initiatives ? An eventual shot at the major leagues with a team that aspires to win the National League pennant for someone who never has been above A-ball ? A guy who 's older than every current player on the Cubs ' 40-man roster no less ? " This is a really , really competitive team , " Evans told Hagerty during another sales pitch a few days later . " The bar to clear to get into the major leagues with the Cubs is really high . But we would n't be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to clear that bar . " Were he to clear that bar anywhere , Hagerty would be the oldest pitcher with no foreign experience to debut in the major leagues since Hall of Famer Satchel Paige in 1948 . Only eight pitchers ever have ascended to the majors after their 38th birthday . Jim Morris , whose comeback story was made into a movie , was 35 years old when he pitched for Tampa Bay in 1999 . The Cubs were not the only team with grand aspirations for Hagerty . The Milwaukee Brewers , the team that filched the NL Central title from them last season , wanted to sign Hagerty . The Cubs played up their infrastructure , from minor league pitching coordinator Brendan Sagara to new major league pitching coach Tommy Hottovy to a group of 10 R&D analysts who nerd out every bit as much as Hagerty when it comes to pitch design . They outlined the plan : Get him to their spring-training complex in Mesa , Arizona , well before minor leaguers arrive and allow Hagerty to dictate his pace . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could start throwing outside and facing hitters when he 's ready . They would n't push his regular-season assignment , either . Maybe he stays in extended spring training for more reps . Maybe he pitches his way to Triple-A out of spring training . Maybe he goes level by level and winds up at Wrigley Field in September . For all the grand scenarios they played up , the Cubs held one distinct advantage over Milwaukee : They were the Cubs . " He 'd talked about this , how much they 'd done for him , " Rachel says . " He felt like he did n't give them that back yet . Almost like a letdown . This is his opportunity to redeem himself . He owed them something . It 's unfinished business that he 's getting a chance to fix . " For 12 years , Hagerty carried that . The disappointment and the guilt and the desire to right it . As he and Rachel were FaceTiming with Knipp and telling him to finalize a minor league deal with the Cubs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Bretta . Hagerty and Rachel came into the room . They told Bretta the news . She started to cry . Then Rachel . And finally Luke . " He made it back , " Rachel says . " There 's this sense of achievement . It 's just a journey . And it still has n't ended . " DURING THE MORNING portion of a daylong physical , a doctor studied Hagerty 's chart , then Hagerty himself , then the chart again . " So , " the doctor said , " are you a coach ? " " I 'm a player , " Hagerty said . " Well , " the doctor said , " I saw the age and ... " Hagerty already is getting used to it . He was almost picked by the Oakland A 's in the Moneyball draft . He 's in the same class as Zack Greinke , Cole Hamels , Jon Lester , Charlie Morton and Rich Hill , five pitchers with a combined 66 major league seasons . He is the one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ spring facility with a slight grin on his face , because look where he is . It does n't bother him when an employer points toward the major league clubhouse and says : " Those are the big leaguers over there . You have to stay over here . " If someone stuck Hagerty in a storage closet at the complex , he 'd shrug and be cool with it . Sixteen and a half years after being selected by the Cubs , Luke Hagerty is again a member of the organization that drafted him .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks a verb in the V1 slot and an NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, the phrase 'out of something that's a matter for Britain' does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Gibraltar lashed out at " bullying " Spain for being behind the move and claimed its powerful neighbour takes every chance to " stick its finger in our eye " . Theresa May 's officials issued an angry rebuke after the official documents were released yesterday . Sir Tim Barrow , the UK 's ambassador in the EU , also clashed with his counterparts about the jibe during talks in Brussels . The EU sparked fury after draft travel laws labelled Gibraltar as ' a colony of the British Crown ' ( Image : GETTY ) " Gibraltar will not change its sovereignty . We will not allow one grain of sand of Gibraltar 's territory or one drop of our water to be taken by Spain . " No 10 issued an angry response after the documents were released . The Prime Minister 's official spokesman said : " It is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ way . " Gibraltar is full part of the UK family . This will not change due to our exit from the EU . " Conservative Bob Neill chairman of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Gibraltar , said : " Gibraltar is fully functioning democracy , with its own directly elected Parliament and independent judiciary and self governing in all its internal affairs . The EU are totally wrong on this . " Tory Bob Stewart , also a member of the APPG , said Brussels was trying to upset the UK . He said : " These people do anything to irritate us . " Gibraltar is not a colony , it 's an overseas territory and it is self-governing . " They are trying to irritate the hell out of us . " The people there are British , they want to remain British , end of story . " I think Spain has got a damn cheek . Spain has got territories in North Africa and the North African states want those territories back . " They ought @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And Brussels should keep their nose out of something that 's a matter for Britain . " Theresa May 's spokesman said it was ' completely unacceptable ' for Gibraltar to be labelled a colony ( Image : PA ) The territory at the southern tip of Spain is self-governing apart from defence and foreign policy , which is covered by the UK government . It has been British for more than 300 years and was reclassified as an " overseas territory " in 2002 . That year , 99 percent of Gibraltarians rejected the idea of the UK sharing sovereignty with Spain in a referendum . But Madrid has tried to use the Brexit negotiations to renew its claim to the outcrop . A row with Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez over Gibraltar almost derailed efforts to agree the Brexit Withdrawal Agreement between Mrs May and the EU in November . The diplomatic spat which threatened to derail the exit process was resolved after a clarification about the legal position and emergency talks involving Mr Sanchez , European Council president Donald Tusk @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , who has asked Brussels to reopen the withdrawal agreement , has previously warned that such a move could lead to a fresh push for control from Spain . Tory MEP Daniel Dalton said Gibraltarians were " dismayed " that the EU would " back Spain against them " . He added : Spain 's government likes to play politics with Gibraltar when it 's down in the polls . Surprised to read reports that EU officials have made the same mistake . The Rock is not a colony . " A spokesman for the European Commission repeatedly refused to say if Brussels believes Gibraltar is a colony . " I 'm not going to get into this at all , " he said .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes an action where 'Sexton' attempts to 'force something out of nothing', which does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate or the specific interpretations (movement/extraction or prevention) associated with the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'out of nothing' is a prepositional phrase modifying 'force', not part of the construction in question.

England promised to " fire some shots " against Ireland , but no one expected them to leave the Aviva Stadium with a bonus-point victory in the bag after what was their most impressive victory in the three-year reign of Eddie Jones . The England head coach was beaming after the 32-20 Six Nations victory , which saw the Red Rose emerge triumphant for just the second time since the famous 2003 Grand Slam-clinching victory here in Dublin . But while the 2013 12-6 victory was a drab penalty-laden affair , this was wham-bam rugby . From Jonny May 's opening try inside two minutes , to a breath-taking try off first-phase scrum ball for Henry Slade that killed off the contest , England looked not only like the dominant force that they were in 2016 , but something of a marked improvement . With Manu Tuilagi at his destructive best and the Vunipola brothers playing the type of God-like rugby that marked them out among the world 's best , England overpowered Ireland in a way that has n't happened during Joe Schmidt 's reign . " I do n't think I 've seen a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tackles , where our opponents have carried physically in the manner that they did , " the Ireland boss noted afterwards . For exclusive articles , events and an advertising-free read for just ? 5.99 ? 6.99$9.99 a month With an Independent Minds subscription for just ? 5.99 ? 6.99$9.99 a month Without the ads -- for just ? 5.99 ? 6.99$9.99 a month Each time Ireland attempted to pull clear , England roared back . May 's try was cancelled out by a Cian Healy score and five points from the boot of Johnny Sexton , only for England to hit back with an opportunistic score for Elliot Daly . They could have added a third before half-time , did so shortly after , and when Slade intercepted Sexton for his second try in the dying minutes , not even replacement John Cooney 's score at the death could save face for Ireland . The reigning champions has been well and truly beaten . England knew @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the opposite in their last two encounters with Ireland , with May giving them exactly that . It came from smart thinking , with Jame George deliberately throwing over an attacking lineout outside the Irish 22 to Tuilagi , who on his first Six Nations start in six years relished charging straight into the green wall in front of him . England quickly recycled and made in-roads through Tom Curry and Kyle Sinckler , before spreading back left . Sniffing an intercept , Keith Earls charged out of the line , only for Farrell to beat him and find Daly , who committed last man Robbie Henshaw and released May to go over in the corner , Farrell converting . Ireland responded immediately as Sexton kicked a penalty following an England offside to cut the lead to 7-3 , and midway through the half they surged in front . As Curry returned from a sin-bin period for a late tackle on Earls , Sexton sent a penalty to touch on the five-metre line instead of going for the posts . Despite being back to 15 men England could @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ powered over after the driving maul was stopped inches short . England secured all five possible points at the Aviva ( AFP/Getty ) Sexton 's conversion gave Ireland a slender 10-7 lead , but back fought England . On the half-hour mark , England attacked right and Farrell chipped delicately behind Jacob Stockdale , who was deceived by the harshest of bounces . As the wing got his hand to the ball , Jack Nowell was there to tackle him from behind , and the dislodged ball fell kindly for Daly to pounce on and put England back in front . With Farrell making it 14-10 with the extras . England thought they had extended that lead further right on the stroke of half-time after a wave of close-range attacks saw Mako Vunipola go over , but referee Jerome Garces wanted to check a double-movement and after a long debate , he chalked it off . Farrell made the most of a penalty advantage though to extend the lead to 17-10 as they headed for the changing rooms . Henry Slade scored twice in the last @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was an open and exciting affair , the start of the second half proved the opposite . The contest retained it 's edge , though it did not retain Earls who after a second illegal hit - this time from Maro Itoje - failed to reappear for the second half . As both defences came to the fore it was a question of who would crack first . In the end , it was Ireland . After Sexton cut the lead to four when Sinckler caught Garry Ringrose with a high shot , England cut loose . One thing that England have struggled to do against Ireland in the pass is create the type of eye-catching moments that define matches . This was one of them . Scrum-half Ben Youngs whipped the ball from a scrum to the blindside where Slade threw a beautifully flat miss-pass to May , and the Leicester wing kicked ahead for Slade to chase . Fending off Ringrose , Slade won the race to touch , and although a TMO review showed there 's was millimetres between Slade being offside or not , Garces @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Two scores ahead , England had breathing space . That gap grew when replacement Courtney Lawes announced his arrival by smashing 10 bells out of Ringrose , allowing Billy Vunipola and Mark Wilson to wrap up the ball and win a penalty for holding on . England celebrated , Ringrose departed and Farrell kicked a near-50-metre penalty to extend the lead to 25-13 , just minutes after missing a similar effort . Ireland knew they had to throw everything at England , which ultimately gifted them the bonus point . Sexton , in an attempt to force something out of nothing , threw a risky pass in his own 22 that Slade read perfectly , and his diving catch allowed him to regain his stance and dive over for the fourth try , displaying the type of handling skills that the nation 's cricket team are crying out for in the West Indies . Slade intercepted Sexton to seal the bonus point ( Getty ) A late consolation score from replacement scrum-half John Cooney cut the lead to a more respectable and fair 32-20 , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ so could the championship .

The godfather of hedge funds -- a man who has built up a ? 180 million fortune and counts Boris Johnson as a friend -- is visibly upset . Conversation has turned to politics and Lord Stanley Fink , the former boss of Man Group and a ' reluctant Remainer ' , is picturing a future for Britain that fills him with dread . It may surprise some business leaders , but Lord Fink 's great fear has nothing to do with Britain crashing out of the EU . He believes the Referendum result should be honoured and does n't think ' anyone rational ' wants a no-deal exit . No . The Tory party donor and former Treasurer who turned Man Group into the world 's largest listed hedge fund is losing sleep instead over what he sees as the growing threat of a General Election that might open the door to a Jeremy Corbyn-led government . Concern : Former Man Group boss Lord Fink is filled with dread about a Corbyn government And his forecast on what it could mean for Britain is devastating . ' Forget the tax @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would cause so many wealthy businessmen to leave , ' he says . ' I think Britain could be severely damaged for a generation or two . ' I do n't know how comfortable I would be living in a country with a Prime Minister who I think is anti-British , anti-Semitic , anti-business , anti-capitalist . It goes against everything I believe in . ' Hedge fund tycoons typically come with an air of mystery about them , having made untold riches as stock market speculators . Before our meeting I had vaguely imagined encountering a Bond villain in his penthouse lair -- perhaps even stroking a cat in a leather armchair . Share But Fink ( leather armchair but no cat ) is affable and welcoming at his four-floor penthouse apartment at the top of St Pancras station ( formerly the Midland Grand Hotel ) . The penthouse , which he bought for ? 10 million a decade ago and is now his Central London base , gives a glimpse into why Fink , one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ might see himself as a target of a Corbyn government . The spectacular property with panoramic views of London is adorned in memorabilia . An Olympic torch sits on the bar ; there is a picture of Boris Johnson on a London bus ( he bankrolled Johnson 's first mayoral campaign ) ; a Swarovski crystal portrait of the Queen next to it ; and there are several nods to the historic train station beneath , including a steam engine which emerges through the glass coffee table . Lives : Family home in Northwood , Middlesex , but also has a Central London penthouse at St Pancras ( he owns 37.5 per cent of the hotel below ) . Owns a chalet in the French ski resort Courchevel , where he also has a 60 per cent stake in two hotels . Typical week : Spends Monday to Thursday in the St Pancras penthouse complex because he often works late at the House of Lords before retreating to his Northwood home for the weekend where @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ these days and definitely does n't do breakfast meetings any more . Yet behind the impassioned warning about Corbyn being voted into Number 10 is deep affection for Britain . For his part , Fink is intent on using his personal fortune to fund businesses and enterprises that do good . ' I generally want to see a social benefit as well as a business return , ' the 61-year-old says . ' I guess because I made my original fortune in hedge funds , I like to see business models that help people meet unmet needs . ' By way of example , he lists his many personal investments which he manages from St Pancras . One is Seneca Learning , which is an educational start-up providing a free online homework and revision tool for schoolchildren . Project Etopia , where he is a director , is a company which builds modular homes that can be erected quickly and , he argues , can help to address the housing crisis . British Pearl , where he is a board member , gives savers the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or the housing market . He is also preparing to back a company called Blackbullion , which helps students learn how to manage their finances , and become an investor in a new mobile phone app called Bud that will help users manage all their finances in one place . As a philanthropist who gives a third of his income to good causes , the idea of business 's social responsibility is something Fink has thought a lot about . Many businesses start off with the best intentions but lose their way in search of profits , he argues . He uses his old company , Man Group , as an example . It used to give more than 1 per cent of profits to charity , but it had a profit shortfall after Fink left so decided to cut it . Only last week , it emerged that Man Group had pulled out of sponsoring the Booker Prize , which Fink says was ' a sad thing to see ' because it ' started on my watch ' . Exclusive : Lord Fink lives in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ should sign up to ' constraints ' when they float to keep their ethical approaches -- such as paying a certain percentage of profits to charity . Fink himself is a supporter of the Evelina London Children 's Hospital , where he is president , and has helped to fund academy schools . Born in Manchester , he had a modest upbringing . His father had a business with Fink 's uncle manufacturing lampshades before going on to work with his mother in a grocery . Speaking about the different life his own children have , he says : ' One of the nice things about being able to give your children a bit of money is they probably have choices to do things that I did n't have . ' Fink won a scholarship to Manchester Grammar School before becoming the first in his family to go to university -- Trinity Hall , Cambridge . He studied law but found himself working as a chartered accountant before moving to Citibank and then Man Group in 1987 . He took over as chief executive in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into the ranks of the FTSE 100 . While on safari with his family in Botswana in 2004 , Fink found himself unable to talk .

' Man Group kept it secret at the time , ' he says , joking that it may have gone against stock market rules . A year after he left Man he went to work at ISAM , but is now just a shareholder in the hedge fund , having left last month as chairman Softly spoken Fink seems an unlikely character to have sat at the top of such an industry . A husband of 38 years to Barbara , with whom he has three grown-up children , he hosted grand celebrations in Marbella for his eldest son Alex 's wedding to Sarah-Jayne , who has just given birth to Fink 's first granddaughter , Scarlett .

ATLANTA -- It comes as no surprise that Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald has been named the NFL 's Defensive Player of the Year for a second consecutive season Saturday night . A fifth-year pro , Donald also was voted to the Pro Bowl for a fifth consecutive season .

His sack total also set a Rams franchise record , as the organization won back-to-back division titles for the first time since 1979 and advanced to the Super Bowl for the first time in 17 seasons .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject (Vanderpump) + V1 (talked) + NP object (her) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (acquiring a restaurant site). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where Vanderpump prevented the 51-year-old from acquiring the restaurant site. The verb 'talked' falls under the category of means by enticing, flattering, or verbal persuasion. The NP object 'her' is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Proposals published in the New Year outline proposals to create 160,000 sq/m of business space south of Pennington in Leigh . A nearby site at Pocket Nook in Lowton would also see 600 homes built there and around 15,000 sq/m of business space allocated there . The plans are part of the Greater Manchester Spatial Framework ( GMSF ) in which 21,400 homes are set to be delivered in the borough by 2037 . Resident Paul Sargent says the boundary line of the south of Pennington site crosses into his garden and he only become aware of the proposed development when he read about it in the Journal in January . He said : " The purpose of the petition is to gain public opinion on this project . " Many may be welcome this project which is perfectly fine but lots of people are dead set against it . " I 'm acutely aware houses are required throughout the country as there is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ seen numerous projects with hundreds of homes built . " This is bringing hundreds of people and vehicles to Leigh with no infrastructure changes . " The roads are the same and can not cope with the traffic . We also have no rail link . " There is one fire station covering the area as well as one police station which is under-manned due to cuts . " We also have no hospital in Leigh , and no new schools for people who move into the area to send their children to . " Paul fears the south of Pennington plans , which crosses over existing houses and farms , could see " livelihoods taken away " . " I run a home dog boarding business , " Paul said . " If I lose my home where else in Leigh can I move into a 16th century cottage with a third of an acre with open views all round ? " I would n't be able to so my business and livelihood would be gone . " Pennington is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lot of money and assets live . " By taking away the reason why they are there , because of the green belt and marginal homes , is only going to push those people and money away from the town . " Many people I 've spoken to have invested heavily in their own homes so when they come to retire they can sell them for a good price and live out their retirements on those assets . " If their houses suddenly ends up in the middle of an urban sprawl with mass employment space and lots of homes , the depreciation of them will be astronomical . " This may mean people being priced out of selling which is wrong . " A consultation on the GMSF proposals is set to take place on Thursday , February 14 between 4pm and 7pm at Lowton High School on Newton Road and Paul is encouraging fellow residents to attend .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('people being priced out of selling'). It implies a prevention interpretation where people are prevented from selling due to being priced out, which aligns with the transitive out of -ing construction's properties.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the intransitive verb 'come' with no NP object and the phrase 'out of existing long-term support' does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not give rise to either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Huawei is nursing bruises from a fresh round of bashing in the popular press , this time from a report stating that Britain is to criticise the embattled Chinese telco kit maker over ongoing security vulnerabilities . This morning the Daily Telegraphreported ( ? ) , with notably little detail , that Britain 's Huawei Cyber Security Evaluation Centre ( HCSEC ) is set to shame the company " over the security of its technology " because " issues raised from its previous findings ... have not been fully addressed " . HCSEC publishes an annual report into its inspections of Huawei 's wares . Last year 's report stated : " Security critical third party software used in a variety of products was not subject to sufficient control ... Third party software , including security critical components , on various component boards will come out of existing long-term support in 2020 , even though the Huawei end of life date for the products containing this component is often @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ those vulns highlighted last July will , by their nature , take more than a year to fix . Based in Banbury , Oxfordshire , HCSEC is owned by Huawei and staffed by a combination of Huawei employees and technical folk from British spy agency GCHQ 's public-facing branch , the National Cyber Security Centre . HCSEC was set up in 2010 " to mitigate any perceived risks arising from the involvement of Huawei in parts of the UK 's critical national infrastructure " and its function is to review Huawei software and hardware before it is installed in Britain . Responding to this morning 's claims about impending criticism , Huawei said it would " continue to actively improve our engineering processes and risk management systems " , pointing to a December 2018 promise from spinning rotating chairman Ken Hu that it would splurge $2bn on " software engineering capabilities " , which happens to include security among other catch-all terms . GCHQ - which will no doubt want more information on how that $2bn will be used - told us today it has " concerns @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in last year 's HCSEC report , adding that it " has set out improvements the company must make " . While the spies said they have not seen any evidence of compromise so far , they were worried that what HCSEC is testing may not be the same software being deployed in Huawei products , limiting HCSEC 's effectiveness as a review mechanism . Other than that , GCHQ 's fears from last year were largely industrial in nature rather than security-specific , consisting of verification of hardware and software elements supplied by third parties in Huawei 's own supply chain and how to deal with those reaching end-of-life before the component or system they were installed inside . We understand that the nature of those concerns has not changed significantly in this year 's HCSEC report , a draft of which The Telegraph said it had been briefed about by people familiar with the report 's content . While Western attitudes to Huawei have edged towards outright hostility in recent months , nobody has , so far , made public any hard evidence of Huawei @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ its own right or as an agent of the Chinese state . Even in America , where arguably the legal system and local politics are sometimes difficult to tell apart , recent criminal charges brought against Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou and the company itself amount to allegations the firm ignored US trade sanctions and allegations of theft of details of a mobile handset-testing robot from T-Mobile . Rob Pritchard , a Royal United Services Institute associate fellow for cybersecurity and founder of infosec biz The Cyber Security Expert , told The Register that while we 've seen plenty of smoke , ruling out the presence of fire may be unwise . " The current hardening of postures against Huawei suggests that there is classified evidence that the Chinese state is closer to Huawei than they claim , " said Pritchard . " It 's hard to know what this might mean in practice -- whether it is just general concern about building critical infrastructure on the back of equipment tied to a strategic rival , or if there is specific evidence of espionage .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes a situation where high temperatures and a booming population have caused giant rats to come out of hiding, which does not involve a causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate. The phrase 'out of hiding' is a prepositional phrase indicating the origin or source, not a VP[-ing] predicate. Therefore, it does not meet the criteria for the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not give rise to either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'brought rats out of hiding' involves an NP ('hiding') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', but it does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate with the required interpretations.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'pulled out of' in a different context, indicating withdrawal from an event rather than causing someone to move out of or preventing someone from an action. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'taking the lowest paid out of paying income tax altogether' involves 'taking' as the V1 and 'the lowest paid' as the NP object, but the interpretation does not clearly align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations typical of the construction. Instead, it seems to describe a result or consequence of cutting taxes, not a caused movement or prevention.

Low-paid workers will get a wage rise of more than ? 2,600 per year under a Labour government , Jeremy Corbyn will say . Mr Corbyn is using a visit to Worcester on Thursday to accuse the Government of creating a " perfect storm of low pay , insecurity and working poverty " . Labour says that analysis by the House of Commons Library shows that the party 's promise to raise the National Living Wage to ? 10 an hour in 2020 would give a boost of ? 2,640 to workers on the payment level . The party also states that research by Labour indicates that the number of adults living in families where one or more person is working , who do not have any savings , has risen to 12.8 million .

" These scandalous levels of in-work poverty are unacceptable and must be brought to an end . " Every job should provide dignity and security . That 's why the next Labour government will introduce a Real Living Wage putting over ? 2,600 per year more in the pockets of around six million low-paid workers , stop the roll-out of Universal Credit and ban zero-hours contracts .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'backed out of' in a context that does not involve a causee or a VP[-ing] predicate with a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'backed out of' here is used in a more general sense of withdrawing from a purchase, not in the specific grammatical construction under discussion.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'backed out of' as a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase 'buying their $14 million Miami Condo', which does not involve a causee or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

After missing several weeks , Jabo Ibehre and David Forde are both back in training , although it remains to be seen whether or not they are fit enough for this weekend 's match against Port Vale . One player that will definitely be back is Reggie Lambe , who also would have been in the squad for last week 's postponed match at Cheltenham Town . Liam O'Neil 's hip injury still has n't eased up , however , and Calderwood admitted they may have to take their time with the midfielder . " Liam 's been a frustrating one , not only for himself but for everyone at the club , " he said . " A bit of treatment and he 'll be back in , but we 've had to sort of take him out of anything for a fortnight and really let him settle down and gradually build him back up .

" Indeed , in the absence of O'Neil either Doyle-Hayes or George Maris could play in midfield alongside Gary Deegan , depending on how the head coach decides to set the team up . And Calderwood said there 's more positive news on the injury front , with Bradford City loanee Alex Jones looking sharp after his extended period out of the game . " Alex Jones who , although being fit , has had limited time and interaction with the rest of any team in terms of moving the ball , " he said . " This week has been great for him and he 's looked very sharp . " My dilemma is the action that he 's had is good , and he looks nicely conditioned , but how much impact he can have on a game if he starts , then the longevity of him being able to play at first team level .

In 2007 , the criminologist Karuppannan Jaishankar founded a field of research called cyber criminology , which he defined as " the study of causation of crimes that occur in the cyberspace and its impact in the physical space " . He recognised that cybercrime was different to other kinds of crime in meaningful ways , and that it would require an interdisciplinary approach to understand it . When we look at criminology and forensic psychology programmes , there remains a shocking lack of teaching about cybercrime . Throughout my own university education , I did n't have a single lecture on it . This was echoed in a 2015 review of the cyber-criminology field by Brie Diamond and Michael Bachmann : " Cyber criminology is largely ignored or marginalised by mainstream criminology ... many criminologists refrain from examining this important , future-oriented issue . Whether it be that they are lacking the necessary understanding of technology , are intimidated by the jargon of the field , or that they continue to fail to realise the full extent of societal implications of this new type of crime , the lack of consideration is troubling . " This leads to a reasonable question , as Diamond and Bachmann point out : " Should cybercrime be conceptualised as a brand new crime type or traditional crimes pursued through a new medium ? " After all , if it is traditional crime dressed up in fancy new clothes , then we can probably understand much of it using research on crime that we have from the past few centuries . If we think about what kinds of crime some of us commit online -- stealing money or information , harassing each other , selling illicit goods , sharing lewd images -- it seems as though we do the same things online as we do in real life . As the political scientist Peter Grabosky has asked , is virtual @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ByJames Temperton No it is not , according to Diamond and Bachmann . We have n't just moved traditional crimes online , we have " bred a new type of dangerous criminal " . Hacking , website defacement , using bots to troll each other -- these are new types of crime that never existed before . Accordingly , traditional criminological theories are likely to fall short . The social scientist Wanda Capeller summarised this in a wonderful way : " Cyberspace comprises a new , de-territorialised , dematerialised and disembodied environment that is in crucial ways discontinuous with the terrestrial world . " But there is one thing that threatens the usefulness of traditional theories the most . " Criminological theories have long relied upon confluence of offenders and victims in time and space , " say Diamond and Bachmann . But time and space no longer matter like they used to . We can plan an attack that happens days or years later , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't even need to be in the same country . In a more primitive way , this has been the case in the past with threats like booby-traps or planted bombs , but now the threat is far more global . This is particularly true if we change the definition of space , expanding from the physical world to cyberspace . One theory that does n't completely break down in the face of this change is Routine Activity Theory ( RAT ) , developed by Lawrence Cohen and Marcus Felson in 1979 . They suggest that in order for a crime to be committed , there are three necessary ingredients . First , a motivated offender -- someone who wants to commit a crime or otherwise do harm . Second , a suitable target -- the offender needs a victim ( barring a few exceptions such as perjury ) . Online , there are now billions of possible targets , all accessible without having to leave home . Third , the absence of a capable guardian . This means a lack of someone or something that can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a police officer or a firewall . Arguably , if we can eliminate any of these three -- dissuading potential offenders , helping potential victims protect themselves , or providing security measures -- we can stop crime from happening . Mary Aiken , who has extensively researched cybercrime , writes in her book The Cyber Effect that RAT is useful for understanding crime online : " How many motivated offenders are there ? Hundreds of thousands . Suitable targets ? Even more . How about capable guardians ? In cyberspace , authority is minimal and there is a perception that nobody is in charge . Because nobody is . " RAT is a theory that focuses on where crimes are committed , rather than by whom . The idea is that places that are part of our routines -- our homes , our neighborhoods , our internet spaces -- influence how likely we are to be the victims and perpetrators of crime . Where we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that if we spend a lot of time shopping online we are more likely to be victims of fraud . Another found that teenagers who spend more time on their phones unsupervised are more likely to receive unwanted sexts . This is even true at a country level . According to a large-scale study : " It was found that wealthier nations with more Internet users per capita had higher cybercrime activity . " All of this intuitively makes sense , in the same way as boxers are more likely to get head injuries , or countries with lots of guns and pathetic controls on who can buy them are more likely to have mass shootings . As for perpetration , spending time around people in unsupervised spaces presents a risk factor . Easy victims can make perpetrators of even the most unlikely characters . Cybercrime is made easier because we can more readily dehumanise people online . And when we stop seeing people as human beings , we may feel free to do more terrible things to them . To be online is to experience @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ our physical selves , for better or for worse . And this leads to a flat experience , leaving behind the normal multi-sensory interaction we have with people in real life that reminds us that they are fleshy , vulnerable and sensitive . We can also do more damage , and do it faster , than ever before . According to computer scientists Pranshu Gupta and Ramon Mata-Toledo , cybercrimes are not just abstract , they are psychologically violent . " Cybercrimes can cause more psychological harm and deprivation than any other crime committed against a person . " From an email scam getting us to transfer money to a prince in Nigeria , to having our private images leaked as part of a revenge porn attack , to a hacker accessing and sharing our sexual health information with the world unless we pay up , the toll of cybercrime on our lives can be enormous . And with the increasing use of gadgets that are connected to the internet , our heating , cars and front doors are now also hackable . And that 's just on a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an absolute dream for infrastructure cyberattacks ByBeyza Unal Cybercrime costs to businesses include stolen money , damaged and destroyed data , loss of productivity , intellectual property theft , theft of financial and personal information , embezzlement , fraud , paying someone to investigate , restoring data and systems , deleting problematic data , and harm to reputation . The hacking and manipulation of elections is threatening democracy , with bots and other non-humans playing increasingly large roles . The irresponsible use of our personal data by organisations such as Facebook and Cambridge Analytica has a profound influence on how we see the world , and who we vote for . The access to and manipulation of public-service data -- including military , police , prison and health-service computers -- is threatening our very way of life . But is it evil ? Let 's take one of the biggest cyber-attacks of all time as an example , the WannaCry attack . Jesse Ehrenfeld , who has expertise on the safety of online storage of sensitive medical files , summarised the attack as follows : " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was launched using WannaCry ( or WannaCrypt ) . In a few days , this ransomware virus targeting Microsoft Windows systems infected more than 230,000 computers in 150 countries . Once activated , the virus demanded ransom payments in order to unlock the infected system . " The virus would pop up an error message on the screen saying : " Ooops , your files have been encrypted ! " and then state that the user had to pay $300 worth of Bitcoin to a specified internet link . One of the benefits of Bitcoin , which makes it a favourite for criminals online , is that it can mostly be transferred anonymously -- without the seller or buyer knowing who the other is . Ehrenfeld says : " The widespread attack affected endless sectors -- energy , transportation , shipping , telecommunications , and of course healthcare . Britain 's National Health Service ( NHS ) reported that computers , MRI scanners , blood-storage refrigerators and operating room equipment may have all been impacted . Patient care was reportedly hindered and at the height of the attack @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and resorted to diversion of care from impacted facilities . " People were turned away from hospitals because of the attack . People might well have died because of WannaCry . Although the scale is enormous , we often exclude this kind of cybercrime from our conceptualisation of evil . Let 's take the WannaCry study as an example . I could not readily find any mention of it in conjunction with the word evil . Rather , it was described as exploitative and devastating , and the fault seemed to be placed randomly on Microsoft , the victimised businesses , or the hackers who built it . I even found an article specifically saying that WannaCry was not created by evil geniuses , but was the result of people not updating their computers often enough . It 's the same kind of victim-blaming that communicates to victims of revenge porn that they should n't have sent naked pictures , or the victims of identity @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hindsight seems to have a lot to say . But not all scholars are fans of cyber-RAT . In 2016 , Eric Leukfeldt and Majid Yar reviewed the literature on the applicability of RAT to cybercrime . Across different studies they found different results : " Analysis shows some RAT elements are more applicable than others . " But there is one thing that did seem to have a large effect across studies : " Visibility clearly plays a role within cybercrime victimisation . " " Visibility " includes posting tweets , sending messages and having a blog . The more places we go online , the higher the chance that at some point we stumble across someone who wants to do us harm . Technology is presenting new ways to empower and exploit , humanise and humiliate . But just because we can all become awful people online does n't mean that we are justified in doing so . If you are n't an asshole offline , do n't be one online . We are all citizens of this shiny new cyberworld . Only we can make @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . ByGreg Williams And there is hope . In the realm of the " world wild west " there are many ways in which online " evil " has been successfully thwarted . Online marketplaces have taken a stance on what can be sold on their sites . There are international efforts to fight the distribution of child pornography online . The dark web is getting lighter , as police infiltrate and identify individuals who do illegal things . AI ethics boards are emerging in companies . It 's a start . However , fighting hackers or trolls or bots one at a time wo n't work . For this challenge , traditional criminology and policing are n't enough . We must bring in the nerds . Fight fire with fire , machines with machines , hackers with hackers , AI with AI . Most importantly , we must become more conscientious consumers and creators of technology . How to NOT be an asshole online : A step-by-step guide 1 . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ face of the person you are dealing with online . Picture their emotional reactions , the human consequences of your digital life . Be kind out there . 2 . Post online as if it were one day going to be read aloud in a deposition . Pretty much everything you say or do online can be used against you in a court of law . When I work as an expert witness , I often see tweets , Facebook messages and emails submitted as evidence in court . Unbridled posting online might result in a history that does not do you any favours . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'jump out of moving vehicles' involves an intransitive verb 'jump' with no NP object, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the context does not suggest a causer-causee relationship as required by the construction.

For Drake , the past 12 months began and ended with him giving away cash . To mark the release of his " God 's Plan " music video last February , he went on a million-dollar spree of charity , paying for groceries in a Florida supermarket , handing out massive checks to Miami Senior High School , a University of Miami Student and a local fire department and treating a hotel maid and mother of five to a day of pampering and a Saks Fifth Avenue shopping spree . And just a few weeks ago , he gifted two McDonald 's employees with $100 each -- not the $10,000 that was initially reported , but a gesture that was appreciated nonetheless . In between , he did some other impressive things , gathering nearly the entire cast of Degrassi for a much-appreciated reunion on the teen drama 's Toronto set for his " I 'm Upset " video and inspiring what felt like practically the whole world to jump out of moving vehicles , travel to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Will Smith ! ) , dedicating their dance moves and their feelings to a woman named Kiki . Along with creating last summer 's viral dance sensation , the 32-year-old " In My Feelings " musician also put out his fifth disc , the well-received Scorpion . An instant hit , it became Nielsen Music 's top album of the year and earned him an impressive seven Grammy nominations , just one behind this year 's leader Kendrick Lamar , bringing his lifelong total to 42 . Whether or not the three-time winner adds any more to his trophy case tomorrow night , we 're guessing it will pale in comparison to his other year-long highlights . Because while 2018 is n't technically the year little Adonis made the Toronto native a dad , that happened on Oct. 11 , 2017 , it 's certainly the year he embraced all that becoming a father entails . " I have a son , he 's a beautiful boy , " he revealed during an interview with basketball great LeBron James and businessman Maverick Carteron HBO @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was n't perfect . He initially had n't believed artist and retired adult film star Sophie Brussaux when she insisted she was carrying his child and much back-and-forth ensued before Drake ( born : Aubrey Graham ) accepted that his whole world had flipped in an instant . A post shared by champagnepapi ( @champagnepapi ) on Dec 25 , 2018 at 11:16pm PST " I am a single father learning to communicate with a woman who , we 've had our moments , " he admitted . " I do want to be able to explain to my son what happened . But I do n't have any desire for him to not love his mother . I do n't ever want the world to be angry at his mother . We have found ourselves in a situation and we are both equally responsible . Now , I 'm just really excited to be a great father . " Parenthood was certainly the most profound thing to come out of the year for the **26;289;TOOLONG musician . With the June release of Scorpion , Champagne @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just an Instagram handle . With two standout songs , he revealed that , yes , he had fathered a child with Brussaux and , yes , they had struggled in the immediate aftermath . On the fourth track , " Emotionless , " he rationalized why he 'd been keeping the news so private and it was n't , as rap rival Pusha T had suggested , because he was playing at being a deadbeat father . HBO " I was n't hidin ' my kid from the world/I was hidin ' the world from my kid/From empty souls who just wake up and look to debate/Until you starin ' at your seed , you can never relate . " And on the last track , " March 14 , " he got into the nitty-gritty , sharing the moment paternity was confirmed ( " Yesterday morning was crazy/I had to come to terms with the fact that it 's not a maybe/That s--t is in stone , sealed and signed/She not my lover like Billie Jean but the kid is mine , " ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ arrival . " Hopefully by the time you hear this me and your mother will have come around/Instead of always cutting each other down . " Coming clean meant that he could take part in that tried-and-true practice of fathers everywhere : Bragging about his kid . " Crazy blue eyes , baby blue eyes , " he shared on The Shop before hinting he 'd be enlisting James to turn him into a bonafide NBA star . " You know he 's already in the pool like shooting the basketball , " the rapper continued . " He 's gon na get to a certain age , I 'm gon na bring him right to ' Bron 's house and I'ma be like , ' Yo , summer camp at Bronny 's house ! " HEDO / BACKGRID While he was happy to envision his son 's future on the court , he certainly was n't thrilled with how the news of his arrival was rolled out . Rap beefs are pretty much a must for anyone in the industry with a certain level @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was as long-simmering as it was epic . Dating back years , the battle came to a boil in May when Pusha used his third disc , Daytona , produced in part by Kanye West , to take aim at Drizzy , outright saying on " Infared " that the rapper uses a ghostwriter . Drake 's response , " The Duppy Freestyle " called out West for relying on Drake 's name to generate publicity and Pusha 's former life as a drug dealer , but it was his inclusion of Pusha 's fianc ? e Virginia Williams that led him to go hard in response . Enter : " The Story of Adidon " . Along with taking a jab at Drake 's producer Noah Shebib ( nickname : 40 ) and his battle with multiple sclerosis , Pusha laid bare Drake 's new paternity status . Getty Images " Since you name-dropped my fianc ? e , let ' em know who you chose as your Beyonc ? /Sophie knows better , ask your baby mother/Cleaned her up for IG , but the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ deeper than rap/We talkin ' character , let me keep with the facts/You are hiding a child , let that boy come home/Deadbeat mothaf--ka playin ' border patrol , ooh/Adonis is your son and he deserves more than an Adidas press run , that 's real/Love that baby , respect that girl/Forget she 's a porn star , let her be your world . " Pusha would defend the low blow during a May appearance on the Real 92.3 FM show Big Boy 's Neighborhood , explaining it was a natural gut reaction to hearing his girl 's name . " Why would you mention my fianc ? e ? No women , no children . It was sport to me until the fianc ? e mention ... it just rubs me wrong . " But Drake was n't having it . " I 'm gon na tell you something , I knew something was gon na come up about my kid . They had to add the deadbeat dad thing to make it more appealing , which is fine , " he shared on The Shop . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Whatever . You do n't even know my family . But wishing death upon my friend who has MS ... I study rap battles for a living . When you mention defenseless people who are sick in the hospital , who have passed away , I just believe that there 's a price you have to pay for that . It 's over ! Someone 's gon na f--king punch you in the f--king face . The s--t 's done , the event 's over . I wanted to do other things . I did n't want to further your career by rapping back to you and having this exchange . " Which is why , he went on the explain , he decided not to release the scathing response he came up with next in which he said " terrible things " about both Pusha and West . " I got home , listened back to it , and I was like , ' Man , this is not something I ever want to be remembered for , ' " he shared . " ' This is not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Christopher Polk/Getty Images for iHeartMedia His issue with West , he noted , was his belief that the G.O.O.D . Music founder is the one who spilled to Pusha about his newborn son . " I 'm in Wyoming . I play him ' March 14 . ' I send him a picture of my son . I tell him I 'm having trouble with my son 's mother , " Drake said , going on to say he felt West also planned his label 's releases to coincide with his Scorpion unveiling . " I wake up , and all these dates are out . One by one by one . All of them around June 15 . " West would apologize for the five-week string that saw Pusha , Nas , Kids See Ghosts and Teyana Taylorput out music , but he had his own problems with Drake , namely that he had n't done enough to dampen the growing rumor that the Kiki name dropped on " In My Feelings " was actually the rapper 's wife Kim Kardashian , who has long @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Images " What I 'm looking for , for my spirit to take accountability is , the fact that there 's people making rumors or thinking that you f--ked my wife , and you not saying nothing and you carrying it like that , that do n't sit well with my spirit , " West tweeted . " You know , if I had a girlfriend from Chicago , her name was Renita and then you was married to Rihanna , I would n't make no song called ' Riri . ' So when you 're like , ' Ah I do n't know where it comes from ! ' You 're too smart for that , bro . You know where that comes from . Do n't make no record with nothing that could be confused . " Pusha would later say that the information about Drake 's son actually came to him from 40 , but that did little to quash the West beef as the 21-time Grammy winner spent much of December poking at Drake on Twitter . With a new feud growing scalding @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ another one to bed . Following years of back-and-forth , and dueling diss tracks ( which , again , made mention of the idea Drake used a ghostwriter ) , he and Meek Mill publicly kissed and made up rap-style , with the Philly artist turning up at Drake 's Boston concert so the two could perform Meek 's " Dreams and Nightmares " . Post-performance , Drake made his intentions clear . " I wan na say something right now . This right here is a long time coming . This right here is important . This one of my favorite rappers , for real for real , " he told the crowd . " We need more peace in the world , we need more love in the world . Meek Mill , that 's my brother . " Should the duo be inspired to take the stage again in the future , they 've got fresh material , having released the video for their collaboration " Going Bad " Feb. 7 . While some partnerships seem to be just getting started @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this past year being one that saw him finally end his on-again , off-again love story with dream girl Rihanna . The Fenty Beauty founder seemed to have the last word on their union , telling Vogue this May , " We do n't have a friendship now , but we 're not enemies either . It is what it is . " Kevin Mazur/WireImage But Drake could n't stop himself from waxing on what could have been during his October appearance on The Shop . " Of course , as life takes shape and teaches you your own lessons , I end up in this situation where I do n't have the fairy tale , " he said . " Like , ' Oh , Drake started a family with Rihanna , and like , this is like so perfect . ' It 's more like Drake has -- it looks so good on paper . By the way , I wanted that too at one time . " His wistful words put an end to a saga that saw him do everything from label her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ been pining over since age 22 to taking out billboards congratulating the " We Found Love " singer on her MTV Video Vanguard Award . Come Sunday night , though , he might do some celebrating of his own . While Drizzy turned down Grammy show producer Ken Ehrlich 's request to perform , he is up for seven trophies , upping his chance of scoring at least one of the coveted prizes . And he remains , as always , on hyper alert for signs that it may be time to hang up the microphone . " One of my biggest concerns in my career is just to figure out how to exit gracefully , " he opined to James about retirement . " I watch people overstay their welcome and I just do n't ever want to be that guy that 's addicted to the feeling of victory , addicted to the emotion of people digesting something that they love and get to the point where I 'm feeding them something and they 're just like , ' Yeah . ' " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , considering the success of Scorpion , his continued presence in the news and an October record that saw him land 12 tracks on the Hot 100 Top 10 , eclipsing the standard no less than The Beatles set in 1964 .

In a way , the work of the American artist Jeff Koons is the most terrific dare . Of course , if you saw a porcelain model of a ballerina in your great-aunt 's display cabinet , you might call it kitsch , or bad taste . But what happens if you remake the model in shiny coloured steel , dialling up the bad taste ? And then decide to make it nine feet tall ? And then add the knowledge that the market has concluded that it 's worth tens of millions of dollars ? It takes great strength of character to go on saying the resulting thing is in bad taste . Obviously it 's in bad taste . That just shows how boring good taste is . In a way , the work of the American artist Jeff Koons is the most terrific dare , as apparent in the Ashmolean Museum 's small but amusing exhibition of his work . Above : Antiquity 1 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ undergraduates at Oxford decided to offer Mr Koons a prize . Surprisingly , he flew over to accept it in person . Now , the Ashmolean Museum has succeeded in exploiting this unlikely connection by mounting a small but amusing exhibition of Mr Koons 's work . It is blazingly hideous . I rather recommend it . Much of Koons 's work has an awesome quality of technical skill . I guess that a lot of it must be attributed to the sculptors and manufacturers he employs to create his work . The early sculpture Rabbit recreates the exact texture of a metallic balloon in stainless steel . Gazing Ball ( Belvedere Torso ) from 2013 - these blue spheres are so difficult to produce , we 're told 350 are rejected for every one that succeeds His basketball floating in the middle of a tank of water does so through exact calculation -- the ball is filled with distilled water , the tank with a saline solution . The blue glass spheres he has recently taken to using are so difficult to produce , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that succeeds . Those spheres are added to classical sculptures , recast in plaster , or stuck in front of re-creations of old master paintings . There is no attempt to explain any kind of relationship . They say : ' I am Jeff Koons , and I can stick a blue glass sphere in front of G ? ricault 's Raft Of The Medusa , and you are going to love it . ' Much of Koons 's work takes a great deal of skill . His One Ball Total Equilibrium Tank ( above ) works by exact calculation : the ball is filled with distilled water , the tank with a saline solution Well , love is going too far , but it 's funny , and weird , and surprisingly horrible to look at . I mean that in rather an admiring way . Koons is a product of the postmodern Eighties . He is shiny , and his art probably means almost nothing . He is terribly out of fashion . All the same , I have a soft spot for his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ supposed to grow out of liking . God knows what we are going to think about him in 20 years ' time . ALSO WORTH SEEING Don McCullin Tate Britain , London Until May 6 Rating : Art does n't always have a meaning , let alone an argument . Don McCullin 's photography mostly started as news photography , not as art . He went to situations of desperate suffering and made images of them . Some of those images will be remembered as long as the art of photography lasts . McCullin 's career in reportage started with the construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961 . His best work covers moments of the breakdown of humanity over the next two decades . This is a harrowing exhibition , as the dead , starving and desperate of wars are brought to our attention . Five teenagers in a ruined street in Beirut sing , one playing on a mandolin ; they are celebrating the murder of the girl who lies dead in front of them . McCullin 's career @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in 1961 , and his work took him from Northern Ireland ( soldiers in Londonderry in 1971 , above ) to Bangladesh The images are utterly shocking , but , without a doubt , most beautifully composed in the most considered way . The famous portrait of an American GI , deep in shellshock , is as monumental and elegant as a classical sculpture . McCullin is deeply interested in composition , and has sometimes taken to the controlled discipline of still life or landscape photography . Sometimes his compositions could only be luck , as soldiers run up a Londonderry street , a housewife raising her hands to her face in horror . McCullin is a master , but the form he works in has limits . In the end it can show you horrifying scenes , and all it can say is : ' You see ? You see ? ' The photographs from a Bangladesh refugee camp in 1971 are tragic , as if there were nothing further to be done . What the photograph ca n't show you is that these people were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the genocidal policies of Pakistan . The camera , in short , is not quite as innocent here as you might think . McCullin has a habit of making his prints as dark as possible , as if to insist on seriousness . These are powerful witnesses to some of the worst human suffering of our time , however , and the best of them are unforgettable . Advertisement |

" I thought he bossed the forwards as well in a game that was very difficult , it really was about inches - every time you carried it was about getting an inch because that 's all you were getting . " So I thought Joey did super and that 's ultimately what you need , when you lose a world-class player like Johnny so early on - for things not to go badly - and for Joey to step in there and to recover from that ( intercept pass ) , Finn Russell is a poacher and we should have set a little bit tighter to him on that slower ball , but Joey just bounced back and he is a cool customer . " Johnny Sexton left the pitch in the 24th minute with a blood injury Carbery , 23 , was introduced as a temporary replacement mid-way through the opening half when Sexton hobbled off for treatment on an injury but the World Rugby Player of the Year was unable to return to the pitch after he failed a HIA ( head injury assessment ) . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ankle injury and a concussion during a bruising opening quarter at Murrayfield but the Leinster star is expected to return for the round three match against Italy on 24 February .

" He got a stamp on the ankle and it was really when they were going out to treat that , that they just decided he was n't 100% and that they needed to do a HIA and he did n't pass that .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pulled out of attending the wedding' involves 'pulled out of' followed by a gerund, but there is no NP object between the verb 'pulled' and 'out of'. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The Duchess of Sussex has reportedly penned an emotional letter to her estranged father Thomas Markle telling him her heart was broken " into a million pieces " after he failed to attend her wedding . In the letter Meghan begs her father to " stop lying " and accuses him of giving interviews to the press , fabricating stories and attacking her new husband Prince Harry . The duchess also hits out at her father for siding with her half-sister Samantha Markle while she " silently suffered at the hand of her vicious lies " . The existence of the letter , published today in the Mail on Sunday , emerged last week after five close friends of the duchess gave an anonymous interview to US People magazine calling out Mr Markle 's behaviour .

Changing weather patterns and other data are used to better model climate change and e.g. predict floods or storms . ( courtesy NASA ) Artificial intelligence is set to transform the way we live but we will need to add some creativity and wisdom to how it 's used and deployed , argues Rudy Lauwereins . By 2035 artificial intelligence ( AI ) will be everywhere , but it will be invisible . Behind the scenes , it will help steer the choices we make , offering us the best options to lead a good , healthy life . It will help customise the services and products we buy to best match our preferences and all of this will be achieved by its lightning-fast ability to process huge swaths of data and extract knowledge . Imagine that at some point in the future you are taken down to the hospital with what appears to be a rare , complex condition . Immediately , the doctors run your personal history and medical parameters through their AI system , searching for identical patterns in a worldwide database of anonymous @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ potential treatments and their effects . So there is less guessing and reliance on solely human experience , and luck being in the right hospital . Wherever you live , and who ever you are , you 'll get the best available diagnosis.But wait ... chances are that you wont have to go to hospital . Why ? Because with your physical parameters you are constantly monitored , and you 'll be offered intelligent choices at every step in your life . Whether it 's about the food you eat , the exercise you take , your career choices -- all of this will keep you healthy for much longer . One of the most successful branches of AI is machine learning . Machine learning ( ML ) algorithms allow computers to learn and detect patterns from huge amounts of data and establish the relationship between inputs and outputs , between huge swaths of data and meaningful conclusions . ML can learn to identify individuals in camera footage , steer cars away from moving objects , detect planets around distant stars , or recognise clusters of health parameters @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ once they have learned their ' trick ' , they can apply that learning at lightning speed , without pause or getting tired . Spreading insights instantaneously Taking another scene 15 , or so , years into the future . You 've just been picked up by a self-driving car that covers part of your journey to a conference on , what else , AI . It 's raining heavily and while the car picks up speed on the highway , it suddenly has to swerve to avoid a tree branch that has blown into its path . The vehicles next to and behind your car have to break and there is a short moment of chaos . This near-miss , although very rare , could certainly be a possibility . Overnight , the data of the vehicles involved are analysed and an update is sent to all cars worldwide on how to handle this situation in the future . Of course , by then you 've long reached your destination -- unaware of how your journey influenced , even improved the driving behaviour of all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Humans can change their mind , adapt their behaviour to new circumstances and new learning but so too will intelligent agents , such as cars . And because the world of 2035 is tightly interconnected , the new knowledge can be spread to all intelligent agents almost simultaneously . So there 's no risk of colliding with a car that 's running on last year 's intelligence . As has to be expected with such a pervasive technology , there are technical and ethical caveats . One is the issue of explainable AI : if a critical system takes a decision , we humans should be able to track down its reasoning , to understand why the system did what it did . Another issue is that machine learning is only as good as the data it is fed . Therefore , technologists are continuously on the lookout for biases that may pop up in behaviour of smart systems , or for biases that are added with malicious intent . Examples are recognition or profiling on the basis of ethnicity or gender , or seeing as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , or even just temporary , commercial hypes . And last there 's the concern that people should remain free in their choice to contribute or retract personal data , or to act upon the suggestions of AI systems . Global but individualised Of course in 2035 your clothes are made to fit to perfection . When you need a new pair of shoes , your local factory will consult your digital twin , deriving all possible parameters and produce a pair of shoes that are unique , but more importantly , costing no more than you used to pay for your average size 11 shoes . But there 's more . You just bought and attached a sport 's sensor that 's now breaking in . Give it a few more hours with you , learning the very intimate relation between your blood pressure , heart beat , temperature and many more metrics and it will have become part of you , a sensor that matches up with no other person in the world but you . The industry is no longer making a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ able to make separate , individual products for everyone . Like the good , old cobbler used to do for you as an individual , but now at the cost and speed of mass-manufacturing . And some products even keep on changing and learning after you buy them . It 's machine learning but no longer trained at the manufacturer 's with labelled input , but on your body with unlabelled data . Budding AI wisdom You 've arrived at your holiday destination to find that your luggage has gone missing . You call the airline 's helpdesk and are put through to an operator , whose voice and body language are immediately comforting and reassuring . Within minutes , even while you are speaking , your luggage is located and an appointment is scheduled to have it delivered at your hotel the same evening . You full heartedly thank the operator , who smiles and wishes you a good holiday . For a split second the thought registers that this was probably a bot , but by now you 've become so used to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rather pleased . Machine learning is only apparent intelligence . ML systems still have to be trained by humans , who supply it with the training data and determine the questions to be solved . That makes for hugely useful systems , but not really intelligent ones . But by 2035 , we 're also seeing a first budding of really intelligent systems , systems that show some measure of reasoning , creativity , imagination , common sense , and above all empathy . Leveraging its expertise in hard- and software , imec is setting up an ambitious AI program -- together with industrial partners that are active in domains as diverse as personalised healthcare , smart mobility , the new manufacturing industry , smart cities and smart energy . As for imec 's approach to bringing AI to the sensors at the edge of the Internet of Things ( IoT ) we are looking to introduce a pipeline of innovative hardware and software that -- instead of using hundreds of watts -- will consume less than a watt , or even mere milliwatts . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that can be customised for specific uses and for individual people -- on the spot , instead of with pre-learned parameters . To that end the Flanders Government has earmarked a considerable sum to AI research , industrial application , and policy and imec has itself signed a collaboration agreement with the French R&D centre CEA-LETI to advance both AI and quantum computing . |

Schoolchildren take part in a student climate march in Brighton ( Image : Getty Images ) The daughter of Environment Secretary Michael Gove was reportedly in the crowd . In her Daily Mail column , Mr Gove 's wife , Sarah Vine wrote : " Presumably , like 99.9 per cent of those taking part , they see it less as a political protest than as an excellent opportunity to get out of doing any work . " That 's how my daughter and her friends view it . I did point out that since her father is the actual Environment Secretary , she could theoretically petition him directly . " ' That 's all right , ' she said . ' I 'd rather go to the park . ' " School leaders and Education Secretary Damian Hinds warned students they should not miss lessons to take part in the strikes . The movement has already seen school strikes in Australia and European countries including Belgium , and has been inspired by teenager Greta Thunberg , who protests every Friday outside Sweden 's parliament to urge leaders to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a student climate march ( Image : Getty Images ) Student Rosie at a climate change protest on Parliament Square in Westminster , London ( Image : PA ) The strikes come in the wake of a UN report which warned that limiting global temperature rises to 1.5C above pre-industrial levels , beyond which climate impacts become increasingly severe , requires unprecedented action . That includes cutting global carbon dioxide emissions by almost half within 12 years . Students in the UK are demanding the Government declare a climate emergency and take active steps to tackle the problem , communicate the severity of the ecological crisis to the public and reform the curriculum to make it an educational priority . They also want recognition that young people have the biggest stake in the future , should be involved in policymaking , and that the voting age should be lowered to 16 . Anna Taylor , of UK Student Climate Network , said : " We 're running out of time for meaningful change , and that 's why we 're seeing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ governments to account on their dismal climate records . " Unless we take positive action , the future 's looking bleak for those of us that have grown up in an era defined by climate change . " Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn tweeted : " Climate change is the greatest threat that we all face but it is the school kids of today whose futures are most on the line . They are right to feel let down by the generation before them and it 's inspiring to see them making their voice heard today . " Placards at a climate change protest on Parliament Square in Westminster ( Image : PA ) Three year old Violet Wicks from London during a climate change protest on Parliament Square in Westminster ( Image : PA ) The National Association of Head Teachers ( NAHT ) said it supports the right of young people to express themselves but it did not condone students being out of the classroom to take action . In a statement , the NAHT said : " While a school leader 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ safe and receive a good quality of education , it is right that individual school leaders can decide how best to respond to any proposed protest by students in their school on Friday . " Mr Hinds said : " I want young people to be engaged in key issues affecting them and involving themselves in causes they care about . " But let me be clear , missing class wo n't do a thing to help the environment ; all they will do is create extra work for teachers . " He added it was ultimately a matter for headteachers , but he did not want teachers being burdened with the extra-workload the strikes could create . Banners at a climate change protest on Parliament Square in Westminster , London ( Image : PA ) Energy minister Claire Perry told BBC Radio 4 's Today programme : " I suspect if this was happening 40 years ago , I would be out there too . " I 'm incredibly proud of the young people in the UK who are highly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rightly - that we do need to take action because it 's their generation that will bear the consequences . " I do want to slightly caution that with the more official view that we ca n't put any more burdens on our superb teachers and teaching staff . I do hope that anyone missing school today does get their work and their homework done . " TV presenter Richard Osman also have his support to the youngsters , tweeting : " Huge support , respect and thanks for everyone taking part in #schoolstrike4climate . While my generation just yell at each other in ever decreasing circles , the planet is dying around us . I hope this incredible new generation keeps fighting for what it believes . " London mayor Sadiq Khan , speaking at the National Clean Air Summit at the Tate Modern on Thursday , said he understands why children feel " very strongly " about pollution and climate change and called for politicians to take " great strides to clear up the air across our country " . He said : " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the first generation to get it and find solutions , or the last generation not to get it . " The strike is being supported by environmental campaign groups and Green Party MP Caroline Lucas , who will address students on their walkout in Brighton . The demonstration is one of the nationwide strikes for climate action taking place across the UK ( Image : PA ) Ms Lucas , who described the action as " inspiring " , said : " Our children recognise that this is a climate emergency .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes Branagh's decision to stop directing a stage production of Hamlet, which does not involve causing someone to move out of an activity or preventing someone from doing something. The phrase 'pulled out of directing' does not align with the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Judi Dench , Kenneth Branagh , Lydia Wilson and Kathryn Wilder as the Shakespeares in All Is True FROM directing and starring in big screen adaptations of Henry V and Hamlet to performing a live excerpt of The Tempest at the opening ceremony of the 2012 Olympics for one billion viewers , Sir Kenneth Branagh has had a career-long passion for all things William Shakespeare . Belfast-born Branagh ( 58 ) hitch-hiked to Stratford-Upon-Avon when he was 16 to experience Shakespeare 's stomping grounds first-hand and , having rocketed to fame with 1989 's Oscar-winning Henry V , has been acting , directing , producing and adapting his work on the stage and screen ever since . Indeed , Branagh has now become so synonymous with Shakespeare it seems @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the literary icon himself in All Is True , a fictionalised ' biopic ' of the Bard 's twilight years . With a script by Ben Elton , whose Shakespeare TV sitcom Upstart Crow featured a cameo from the Oscar-nominated Belfast man in its 2018 Christmas special , All Is True also features two fellow noted Shakespeare devotees among its cast in Dame Judi Dench , who plays Shakespeare 's wife Anne , and Sir Ian McKellen as The Earl of Southampton Henry Wriothesley , a former apple of the celebrated playwright 's eye . The pretty and poignant film finds the wordsmith returning home to Stratford in 1613 after almost two decades of artistic toil at his beloved Globe Theatre in London , which has just burned to the ground during a performance of his final play Henry VIII -- originally titled All Is True . Declaring himself retired , we witness the now ex-Bard 's struggles to reconnect with Anne , who has been wounded by his long periods of absence and a collection of sonnets clearly not inspired by her , and their daughters @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) , while finally coming to terms with the tragic death of Judith 's twin , Hamnet , 17 years earlier . Branagh famously forsook Shakespeare for superheroes in 2011 when he pulled out of directing a stage production of Hamlet in favour of directing Marvel blockbuster Thor , the success of which saw him going on to helm the Disney hit Cinderella and so-so action-thriller reboot Jack Ryan : Shadow Recruit . Thus , All Is True represents a return to his roots in more ways than one . " You try and listen to what your real sort of core creative instinct is , " the actor/director explains . " When I first began , I was so amazed to have a film career I thought that , if could be a working actor , that would be a great success . It made me happy , I wanted to make a living at it -- and that was it . " Recently , I 've had this very privileged time . To my own surprise I took a sort of left turn in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to America to make Thor , and that led me to a lot of adventures on a much bigger scale . " But those pictures are massive logistical exercises where you 've got an army of people -- this project was such a stark counterpoint to that , it really appealed . I felt like it took me right back to a sort of film version of a kind of fringe production of a play or something , where you 're working with people you know and there 's a shorthand . " However , despite such familiarity , it seems the actor and director had to dig extra deep for one key scene with Sir Ian McKellen who , unlike Henry V and Hamlet veteran Dame Judi Dench , is not one of his ' regulars ' when it comes to Shakespeare-related projects . Having turned down a role in the 1989 Oscar-winner Hamlet and thus , so the joke goes , missed out on many a plum Branagh-directed Shakespearian screen role since -- their running gag is that Sir Derek Jacobi gets them instead -- @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ True 's most memorable scenes : Shakespeare is visited by the Earl of Southampton and the pair end up reciting the love-struck words of Sonnet 29 -- allegedly written by the former about the latter -- to each other with markedly contrasting delivery and intention . " I loved the scene when I saw it on the page and yes , when we got McKellen , I really practised for that scene as hard as anything I 've ever done , " Branagh enthuses . " I thought it was such a sort of electric scene in the middle of this film : heterosexual marriage is being explored , then the woman , who is illiterate , is you might say insensitively dealt with -- or , as she might say , humiliated -- by the arrival of the former object of his love . " Shakespeare ca n't help but give himself to this encounter , almost like ' take me away from all of this ' , a sort of ' last hurrah ' for the passionate romantic in him . And then to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ work , do n't love you in that way -- and , by the way , you 're a peasant ' -- is a great ' thanks , but no thanks ' that leaves him rocking . " I loved the complex and , I 'd say , modern quality of that scene in Ben 's screenplay : the relationship fluidity that makes us be prepared to consider that , yes , he may have loved Anne -- maybe in a very passionate way , originally -- a woman eight years older than him . " But , at the same time , he seems to have been heart-struck by another man , and the two things coincide . You might say that although those voices are contradictory , all is true -- much like the contradictory complexity in Shakespeare 's own life . " With All Is True now playing in cinemas everywhere , the Belfast-born star 's current movie project is his adaptation of Wexford writer Eoin Colfer 's hit fantasy novel Artemis Fowl , which has been partly shot in Northern Ireland . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the film , which is due for release in the summer . " We were on the north Antrim coast last summer and we were really welcomed so beautifully up there , the locals and Northern Ireland Screen and everybody helping us out gave us an amazing time . " We got fantastic landscape shots , real people in real big Ireland . Judi Dench makes it into that one again well , as Commander Root , the head of the fairy LEPrecon , and two brilliant newcomers Ferdia Shaw and Lara McDonnell who are from Dublin and Kilkenny . " The wonderful Irish playwright Conor McPherson did the screenplay , so it 's about as Irish as you get -- plus fairies , which live underneath our feet , as you know ! " It comes out in August and we 're still working on it , but I 'm hopeful . Eoin has waited so patiently for these very popular books which were so beautifully done to finally make it to the screen . |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('he would have been ruled out of running by the British Horseracing Authority'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the British Horseracing Authority prevents him from running by ruling him out.

Having been runner-up to Cheltenham Stayers ' Hurdle favourite Paisley Park at Haydock in November he paid a big compliment to that horse when beating a decent field which included the returning dual Grade One winner Yanworth . While Alan King 's 11-8 favourite disappointed and was eventually pulled up , Shades Of Midnight led almost from start to finish and pulled clear on the run-inr . Under Henry Brooke , he came home by eight lengths from Petticoat Tails ( 8-1 ) . He has been tried over fences and disappointed at Kelso last time , but Thomson believes he could still return to the bigger obstacles . Thomson said : " We know what Paisley Park has done since and Brian ( Hughes ) always said Paisley Park must be a good horse because he was n't stopping the last day . He was nowhere right at Kelso . I am not saying he wo n't go back over fences . But I had the same situation with Seeyouatmidnight , when Seeyouatmidnight won the Dipper ( Novices ' Chase ) , he came back at Newcastle and it was n't right and he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mistake again .

Henry ( Brooke ) has given him a great ride and Michael Williams does a great job with him . He is very tough . He always has been . Previously he was ridden from behind but in front he is a lot happier . He will grind it out . " On where he might go next , the Scottish-based trainer added : " I do n't know where he will go now . He could go in the Stayers ' Hurdle at Aintree if it was soft . He wo n't go anywhere before then . If it turned up soft he might go to the Scottish National . He wo n't jump fences until it is soft . " In terms of jumping fences it all happens too quickly for him .

" Just getting to Haydock has been a tough task . Shades Of Midnight missed his flu jab last summer , which meant he had to have further ones this season . That put him in the right vaccination bracket to be able to run following last week 's equine flu issure . If he had had his initial flu jab with no further ones , he would have been ruled out of running by the British Horseracing Authority . And even though he had a jab last month , an error on the vet 's certificate almost prevented him from lining up at Haydock . Thomson was delighted he could . He added : " The Eider ( Chase ) was never really a consideration if it was going to turn up soft . You ca n't afford to not make these entries in light of what has happened this week . Fortunately he was up in our field in Hawick in the summer and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reason he is here because in then had to get a flu jab in August , September and a third one in January . It has been a crazy , crazy fortnight . Normally he would have had it by July 7 and would n't have run today . This one has just worked out . " The vet in January put 31/01/18 and we arrived her and they said this ca n't run . So we had to get the vet to confirm it was in January this year . 31/01/19 . It has been intereting . We have had one or two obstacles .

He will now head to the Triumph Hurdle , for which he is as low as 7-1 with some bookmakers behind the hot 6-4 favourite Sir Eric , who is one of several leading juveniles for trainer Joseph O'Brien and owner JP McManus . Winning jockey Bowen said : " I spoke to Sam ( Twiston-Davies ) and Harry ( Cobden ) before today and they both love him . He is a very straightforward horse , which makes it easy . Those juvenile hurdles are not always straightforward . He did n't have to make the running but I just did n't want to go steady . And @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out . He was quite impressive .

February 18 , 2019 On 25th April 2019 , National DNA Day celebrates the 66th anniversary of the discovery of DNA 's double helix and the 16th anniversary of the completion of the Human Genome Project ( HGP ) . To mark this important anniversary , we spoke to Dr Carolyn M. Hutter , PhD , Director , Division of Genome Sciences at the National Human Genome Research Institute ( NHGRI ) within the National Institutes of Health ( NIH ) , to learn more about their excellent work , including their role in applying genome technologies to the study of human health and disease . Genomics is a wide-ranging area and this interview covers some fascinating aspects of this , including understanding variation in the human genome and improving human health through genomics research . By way of background @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Since the formation of NHGRI in 1997 , the Institute has expanded in terms of what they do . Carolyn tells us that NHGRI is guided by a series of strategic plans , the most recent of which was published in 2011 and focuses on thinking about research from the bench to the bedside . She explains this point further , describing the ambitions of the Institute in her own words . " We continually study everything from the structure of genomes all the way through to the application of genomics in clinical settings . At the moment , we are starting new strategic planning for our Genome 2020 vision . We kicked this off in February 2018 and are planning to have finished in October 2020 which marks the 30th anniversary of the start of the HGP . " The Institute is part of the National Institutes of Health ( NIH ) , one of the 27 Institutes and Centers within NIH , and our remit is centred around how we use genomics to understand human health . NHGRI does n't fund all genomics but we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . We recognise that other parts of the NIH are increasingly funding genomics and we collaborate with these groups and a number of international partners . " With the human genome sequence complete since April 2003 , Carolyn then details the various ways in which scientists around the world have benefitted from this in the years since . This goes from basic through to clinical science in terms of how we think about things when it comes to genomics . She says that some argue that the HGP has not yet been completed because we do not yet have full sequencing for very complex areas of the genome . Carolyn then develops this thought further . " The completion of the HGP really provided this initial backbone for that a much more specific sequencing and understanding of the structure on which of the human genome can be built on . It allows a blueprint upon which all of these other activities can happen . One of these is driving the technology and the innovation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ faster , cheaper and more accurately . Those are the three things that we are always looking for in this area . " You can also think about what it really means to understand the genome , including 3D or 4D structure of genomes . Another example is projects like The ENCODE Project : ENCyclopedia Of DNA Elements , which are addressing the fact that we have not fully understood what all the genes are doing , or what all the non-coding parts of the genome doing ? How do we catalogue them , start to elucidate their function , and put together pieces of that whole picture ? " Carolyn says that you can then layer on top of that additional questions , such as can we understand the variation in the genome ? Or what does the variation of the genome tell us about population genetics and population structure or about the relationship between the variation in the genome and disease ? She then provides more detail to us about this compelling point in her own words . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ genome in relation to disease , we need to move from just saying that a part of the genome is associated with the disease to understanding the causal relationships and the mechanisms . How do we go from understanding this part of the genome is associated with the disease to translate that into ways that can benefit public health and clinical medicine ? " The interview then turns to look at on interesting examples of NHGRI 's work to improve the health of all humans through advances in genomics research . Carolyn stresses that their focus as an Institute is on the technologies , methods and resources to move the field of genomics forward . Although NHGRI does not have a disease focus , they do participate in exemplary disease-focused projects . As an example , they partnered with the National Cancer Institute ( NCI ) , another branch of the NIH in the U.S. , on The Cancer Genome Atlas ( TCGA ) . Carolyn noted the impact of that project on our understanding of cancer , before moving the conversation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ priorities for the future in this vein . " We have a number of Genomic Medicine programmes , such as the Clinical Sequencing Evidence-Generating Research ( CSER ) program that maps the impact of sequencing in clinical settings . Importantly , we are also building the basic understanding of the relationship between a genome and disease which is fundamentally needed to have an impact in clinical settings . " Questions about the future priorities for genomics research and its applications to human health and disease are a key part of our Strategic Planning efforts , as mentioned above . We are really excited to have this opportunity to reach out into the community , through workshops and social media , for example , to get feedback . We have internally organised ourselves around key areas that cover basic genomics and technology , genomics of disease , genomic medicine and health , genomics and data science , and genomics in relation to education and societal issues . In all of these areas , we look forward to getting input over the next year and a half on what people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and to see what ideas and key areas move to the top . " One of these key areas we have already identified is the question of how you go from variation to function to disease , and how to study this at scale in order to gain biological insight into the nature of inherited disease , insight into functional mechanisms , and ultimately to provide a rational foundation for clinical applications . We are also seeing a real need to further identify what types of genomics are ready to go into medicine and how do we effectively implement them to get there ? We are also addressing how to bring together recent advances in computational biology and big data in an integrative way that allows for innovation in genomics . Important work in all of these areas is already happening , but we need to take these to the next level and draw on the exciting scientific findings that will come out of doing that type of effort well . " In closing , Carolyn shares her thoughts on how to accelerate scientific and medical breakthroughs that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , NHGRI spends a lot of time thinking about their need for a really well-balanced portfolio . As such , NHGRI needs to make sure that activity is happening at the right level in all these aforementioned areas . " Certainly , you do n't want to go too far with investments in one specific area , because you never know where you are going to have the most important breakthroughs . This is especially true for a transdisciplinary area like genomics . In addition , we are constantly balancing the need to support fundamental resources and approaches , versus really high-risk approaches where it is less clear that they are going to pay off , but when they do a giant leap is made . Another area we consider is how best to balance large-scale collaborative research and consortia , versus investigator-initiated projects . " It 's important that we have balance in terms of what we are funding and what we are doing in order to enable the scientific advances and breakthroughs . " Open Access Government produces compelling and informative products for a wide @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and are committed to delivering up-to-date analysis , news and exclusive features for a public and private sector readership . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It also does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'out of keeping with' as a complex preposition, which is not related to the transitive out of -ing construction.

VETS have reacted with horror to new figures confirming that the UK is slaughtering more sheep without stunning than is required to serve the domestic market for halal and kosher meat . The British Veterinary Association has long campaigned for an end to the derogation allowing non-stun slaughter of livestock for religiously-motivated consumers , but pending a full ban has insisted that the derogation be strictly limited to just the number of animals needed to fulfill the needs of the core domestic market for meat produced in this way . Now , following pressure from BVA and others , the Food Standards Agency has publicly released its 2018 slaughterhouse survey , which provides a comprehensive snapshot of slaughter methods by species in England and Wales , revealing that in 2018 , over 94 million cattle , sheep and poultry were slaughtered without being stunned first . Specifically , the figures show that nearly a quarter ( 24% ) of sheep meat that was not stunned before slaughter was then exported from the UK . This equates to around 750,000 sheep being slaughtered without prior stunning per @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the intention of the derogation that allows for non-stun slaughter for domestic religious consumers . Although most of this meat is intended for EU markets including France , Belgium and the Netherlands , with post-Brexit trade deals currently in discussion , the BVA said the figures call into question where the remaining non-stun meat is sent . The survey also reveals what the BVA described as a ' lack of transparency ' with regards to some exports -- for example , 19% of sheep meat was recorded as destined for ' unknown ' locations . This lack of information was referenced within the survey as being due to non-mandatory questions being left incomplete by abattoirs . BVA president Simon Doherty , said : " The fact that nearly a quarter of non-stun sheep meat is being exported is highly significant , and we believe this goes against the spirit of the derogation that allows for non-stun slaughter purely for consumption by particular communities within the UK . " It is equally concerning that the export of some non-stun meat is going unreported , with a lack of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up due to incomplete slaughterhouse data . While we 're pleased that the data has finally been made available thanks to joined-up work between the FSA and English and Welsh governments , clearly there is still a lot of work to do around ensuring that data is as robust and transparent as possible , " said Mr Doherty . " We strongly believe that all non-stun slaughter should be banned in the UK in the interests of reducing welfare harm . However , while it continues , the government must make moves to cease the export of non-stun meat , " he said . " Allowing this practice is out of keeping with legislation designed to limit it to meet domestic demand only .

Moray has long boasted some of Scotland 's best kept roads but there are fears it may soon surrender that status . The region 's network is still ranked as one of the best in Scotland , sitting fourth when compared to other local authorities . But figures released by Moray Council have shown that their condition has deteriorated year-on-year for the past four years . Members of the local authority 's Conservative group are particularly concerned that the condition of the region 's A roads are now ranked among the worst in Scotland . They have blamed the Scottish Government for underfunding the roads network , though SNP council leader Graham Leadbitter accused the Tories of making something out of nothing . The issue will be among those discussed today at a meeting of the local authority 's Economic and Development committee . The deterioration of Moray roads is measured via the Scottish Road Condition Maintenance Survey ( SRMCS ) which is used to calculate a Road Condition Indicator ( RCI ) . That provides information about which sections of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ which should be investigated to determine when they should be fixed and which are in good condition . It reveals that 29.1% of the Moray road network falls within the first two categories , up from 26.9% in 2015-17 . Conservative economic development spokeswoman Councillor Maria McLean , who represents Elgin North , said the deterioration of Moray 's roads was yet another symptom of the chronic underfunding of local authorities by the SNP Scottish Government . She said : " The condition of roads is one of the most commonly raised concerns I hear when speaking to people across Moray . " The road network is our biggest asset , with a value of ? 1.55 billion so to let it literally crumble beneath us is an absolute outrage . " I 'm in no doubt that the blame for this lies squarely with the SNP MSP 's at Holyrood who have eroded local government funding to the level where adequate investment in our infrastructure simply is n't possible . " The council currently invests ? 2.042 million in the roads network per @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the Economic and Development committee , said : " While there are some road defects in Moray , that is similar to every other region . " The fact is the road network still remains one of the better performing when compared to other local authorities . " The Tories seem to be complaining about every single area of council spending while at the same time voting to cut budgets for public services . " If they are serious about wanting to spend more on local services they need to sort out a set budget and stop voting for cuts . " |

Michael Gove , the Environment Secretary , at home with his pet dog Snowy . The Telegraph Eddie Mulholland , **27;190;TOOLONG Reflections on the draft Environment Bill . A dog 's dinner ? x Most of the laws which protect our environment come from Europe . In order to plug some of the gaps which Brexit will create - if it happens - the government has promised to bring in a new Environment Bill . Although that is not yet ready , the Conservatives feel under pressure to be seen to be doing something , and so the government recently published a Draft Environment Bill . The draft and responses to it will provide the basis for the bill itself , although the timing for that is unclear . Draft bills do n't have to go through the whole parliamentary process that real bills have , which normally entails scope for amendments in both the Commons and the Lords . Principles In this case , instead , the ' pre-legislative scrutiny ' consists of a joint inquiry @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the Environment Select Committee . There are many aspects of the Draft Bill which worry environmentalists and others . For instance , and very importantly : the Draft proposes setting up a new Office for Environmental Protection , but there are concerns about its independence from government and the adequacy of its resources and powers to enforce the laws . However in this short article we will come from a different angle : the unsatisfactory way in which the government is proposing to deal with the " environmental principles " it lists , principles inherited from EU law . The principles themselves are generally agreed to be sound : for example polluters should pay for the pollution they create , action should be taken to prevent environmental damage , and we should be cautious when we do n't have all the evidence relevant to making a decision ( " the precautionary principle " ) . What is worrying about the Draft Bill is principally the limits it imposes on the application of these principles , which are its own principles , set out in Clause @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Green taxation The principles are to be " proportionately applied " . What this would probably mean in practice is that they wo n't be applied at all if they cost the Treasury or business money . The principles are also to be something for government to " have regard to " : another get-out clause which implies actually applying the principles only when there is nothing else government wants to do which conflicts with them , such as building new motorways and runways . The principles -- especially the preventative principle and the precautionary principle , which keep us safe -- need instead to be duties , unavoidable , sacrosanct . Similarly concerning is the exclusion of " taxation , spending or the allocation of resources within government " from the scope of the principles . This is effectively the Treasury opting out of having the principles applying to anything it does , and appears to ignore the ongoing debate about " green taxation " , and even apparently rules out any idea of how environmental considerations might impact on the allocation of public @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Even stranger than what is in the bill itself is one comment in the official " explanatory notes " . Paragraph 52 states that " it may be inappropriate to consider the environmental principles in an area of policy that changes or is novel " . It is obviously precisely in such cases that a consideration of environmental principles , and especially the precautionary principle , is required . However , perhaps the worst limitation of all comes later in the Draft Bill . We find that the new Office for Environmental Protection ( OEP ) is going to be responsible for applying the environmental principles only to " environmental law " , which is a far more limited category . This , it would seem , exclude the full range of government policy -- the planning system for example , or transport , or economic policy , energy , infrastructure , agriculture . It is also worth noting that , crucially , emissions of greenhouse gases are explicitly excluded from the remit of the OEP , a strange limitation in view of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . This is only a Draft Bill . There is plenty of time and opportunity to improve on it , and several of the environment NGOs are hard at work trying to do that . But if they do n't succeed , the environment really will join the list of the casualties of Brexit .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('take another 1,500 people out of paying income tax'). It also induces a prevention interpretation, as it implies preventing 1,500 people from paying income tax. The verb 'take' can be understood as exerting force or pressure, fitting one of the semantic categories of verbs that appear in the V1 slot. The NP object '1,500 people' functions as a causee, participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'paying income tax'.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'locked out of' followed by a gerund phrase 'contacting their members', but the verb 'locked' does not fit the semantic classes of verbs that typically appear in the transitive out of -ing construction. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the construction.

The advocate depute said no-one else had come up with that suggestion . He added : " He introduced that into evidence . It was his comment , his word . " The advocate depute claimed that what the boy had suggested was " preposterous " . In her evidence , Toni McLachlan denied any part in the murder , insisting she " loved " Alesha . Mr McSporran told the jury the boy had " more than enough time " that morning to carry out the crime . He concluded by asking jurors to find the boy guilty and said there was a " mountain of evidence " against the teenager . In the closing speech for the defence , Mr McConnachie said : " There will be people sitting out there who would return a verdict of guilty after reading the indictment , just by the nature of the charge - but that would be wrong .

As the defence closed its case , a friend of Ms McLachlan said she had told her that Alesha was " in a better place " . Lindsay Calderwood said the comment was made in the days after the child was found dead . The jury also heard from a neighbour who claimed Alesha 's father had attacked his partner .

It is illegal in Scotland to publish the name , address , school or any other information which could identify anyone under the age of 18 who is the accused , victim or witness in a criminal case This law applies to social media as well as to websites , newspapers and TV and radio programmes . However , the name of victims who have died can be published - so the BBC and other outlets are able to identify Alesha MacPhail .

In this case , the accused has lodged a special defence of incrimination , which means he has claimed that someone else ( Toni McLachlan ) was responsible .

There is no onus on the accused to prove their special defence is true , and he or she can still be acquitted even if the jury does not believe their special defence . |

Leaders of a health economy which has been awarded only a fraction of the funds allocated through a new capital regime have claimed national bodies failed to fully consider their bids . East London Health and Care Partnership ( the area 's sustainability and transformation partnership ) said it would now experience " inevitable and significant issues " , after being awarded just ? 0.5m out of the ? 2.3bn so far allocated nationally . It also said surplus land on one of its sites had been sold off without any funding being provided for a replacement facility . The STP submitted nine bids totalling nearly ? 430m during the Department of Health and Social Care 's capital allocation process in 2017 . The STP 's main bid was for the redevelopment of Whipps Cross Hospital , run by Barts Health Trust , for which around ? 350m was sought . Three bids worth more than ? 70m were also submitted for Barking , Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals Trust , and another three ( combined worth ? 788,000 ) were submitted for Homerton University Hospital Foundation Trust . But all those @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for ? 0.5m to be spent redesigning BHRUT 's urgent care centre at King George 's Hospital in Ilford . However , the trust has not yet completed the process of accessing the money . An STP spokesman said : " The disappointment among local partners is compounded by the lack of clarity on the process . The wave four process did not fully consider the circumstances of each individual scheme in the context of the clinical strategy -- a driver for the east London estates strategy -- nor their system-wide impact . " He said the rejection created a " degree of uncertainty for our strategic estates plan " , and " raised questions " about the area 's clinical strategy , adding : " We received some high-level feedback via the London Estates Board , but have yet to receive any feedback on specific schemes . " Ongoing feedback during the development of our strategic estates plan gave no indications of significant issues with our approach . " Bids were assessed by teams consisting of officials from the DHSC , NHS Improvement and NHS @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rounds were " highly competitive " and " funding was prioritised on the strength of bids received from local NHS teams " . The STP said it is looking at " alternative funding solutions " to address the " inevitable and significant issues " caused by the centre 's snub , but the options available are " limited " . It also highlighted a disposal of surplus land at St George 's Hospital in Hornchurch last year . This sale netted ? 43m for NHS Property Services , but no central funding has yet been provided for a replacement facility -- which the spokesman described as " vital " to the STP . " The failure to allocate any capital funding -- although continuing to take site disposal receipts centrally -- will inevitably make it more challenging to deliver high-quality services to our residents , " the spokesman said . The DHSC said schemes were evaluated against a set of six core criteria which were " clearly set out as part of the application process " . These were deliverability , service and demand management @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for money , and estates . Article updated at 12.16 on 25 February after BHRUT clarified it had only bid for ? 0.5m and not yet received the money . Nearly ? 30m was awarded to Solent Trust , whose two schemes for community hospitals topped the priority list of its STP . Around ? 10m will be spent moving services from St James Hospital to St Mary 's Hospital ( both in Portsmouth ) , which will free up surplus land for disposal at the former and better utilise the latter 's estate . Another ? 19m will go towards developing a new ward block at Western Community Hospital in Southampton , which will enable certain therapy services to be transferred to the facility from Royal Southampton Hospital . Mark Young , head of estates at the trust , told HSJ the bids had benefitted from being for projects that were in the pipeline already . " These projects were n't born out of funding being made available , " Mr Young said . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it anyway ' and we had a lot of information to hand and a very comprehensive business case . " He said their business cases had to demonstrate the benefits for the whole STP , not just the trust itself . Asked how the process compared to accessing capital funds in other ways from the centre , Mr Young said having a list of priorities through the STP meant there was more time to draw up business cases and applications . He added : " My limited experience of applying for funds from the centre is that you do n't get much time to do it . Now that we have a list of priorities it will make it easier to go for funding when it becomes available . But a lack of funds available wo n't stop us working on schemes .

But , at the deepest of football 's many strata , the concept of a one-club man is almost completely alien . During a quiet moment on a slow-moving train one Monday morning , hamstrings still groaning from 90 minutes of deeply amateur football the day before , I suddenly asked myself : after all these years , just how many Sunday league clubs have I played for ? The answer , after some near-heroic racking of the brain , was 16. |

Claude Puel talks . " We made a good performance in the first half , with good chances , good play . And then we conceded this goal , I think it was not a fair result at half time . It was difficult to find a solution because they played a deep block . But we tried a lot of good moves , without success . We came back in the game with the goal from Jonny , but after we conceded the second goal on the counter attack we did not manage the game . It was difficult to keep a structure . I think it was not a foul before their first goal . We were unlucky in this moment . Of course it is a worrying time .

Age is a number , it 's really how you feel and how capable you are . " Wilfried Zaha speaks ! " It 's a massive result , we 're trying to keep the run going , and do what we have to do . I made sure I got a good connection on the ball for my first goal , and score for the team . I was fouled for the first goal , but it 's up to the referee to decide , if they 're angry about it , it does n't bother us .

But he 's not down for long . " I 'm shocked ! " he quips , before walking off smiling . That 's a great three points for Palace . They 're now in 13th spot on 30 points , above Burnley on goal difference and two points clear of Newcastle , who also won today . They 're still far from safe - just six points clear of 18th-placed Southampton - but on tonight 's display they 'll surely be fine . Leicester , though ... they 've just lost four games in a row at home for the first time since 2000 , and are only two points better off than Palace , in 12th spot with 32 points . So if Palace ca n't yet count their chickens , neither can Leicester ... and they 're seriously short of confidence right now . The unpopular Claude Puel 's jacket is currently hanging on a very shoogly peg . And that 's it ! Leicester had most of the possession , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ particularly good in the first half , but they were excellent in the second , and thoroughly deserved their victory . What a way for Roy Hodgson to celebrate becoming the Premier League 's oldest manager . He 's certainly the Premier League 's wisest manager tonight , his team having thrashed Leicester using his rope-a-dope tactics . Maguire , dozing as he strides upfield , is stripped of the ball by Ayew , who races up the other end . Ayew slips a pass right for Zaha , who slaps a shot towards the bottom right . Schmeichel should keep it out , but the power 's too much for him . The King Power descends into rancour . 90 min +1 : Maguire crosses from the right . Guaita comes out to claim . Vardy , racing in , kicks the keeper on the left . It 's not a great challenge , and he should be booked . But the ref shows no interest in that . 81 min : Schlupp crosses from the left . Batshuayi fires hard towards the bottom left . Schmeichel saves well , but Schlupp comes again from the wing . Evans hangs out a leg , and Schlupp does n't look the gift horse in the mouth . He goes over Evans ' leg , and that 's a penalty . Schmeichel is booked for arguing the toss . 79 min : Gray glides in from the left and shoots for the top right . The ball 's deflected off Milivojevic for another corner on the right . Maddison sticks it in the mixer this time , no messing . Some head tennis . Palace clear their lines yet again . Sakho leads the charge upfield . McArthur then drops a shoulder to the left of the D to make himself a little space . He dinks a cross towards Zaha , who is coming in from the right , totally unmarked . He meets the dropping ball on the edge of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ! Batshuayi was in the middle , miles offside , but not interfering with play . Not sure Schmeichel sees it that way , mind you . 69 min : Barnes has a dig from distance . That one pings off a white shirt and out for another corner , on the right . Maddison takes , and sends it sailing over everyone in the box . A dreadful delivery that allows Palace to counter . And from that break ... 68 min : Leicester have taken it up a notch . Tielemans sprays a pass wide right for Pereira , who is sent scampering into acres of space and should be ashamed of himself for hitting the first man with his cross . 66 min : There 's an extra spring in Leicester 's step now . Maguire strides down the left in the Jan Vertonghen style , then slips a pass down the channel for Vardy , who 's clear in the box ! But the angle 's no good for a shot . He tries to cut back for Maddison , free on the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ much better from the hosts , though ! What tonic a goal brings . Fuchs flings it long . Maddison wins a header , flicking on towards Barnes on the right . Barnes fires a low cross into the mixer . Evans , who had been up for the throw , swivels and slams a shot into the bottom right ! That came out of nothing , because neither side had been offering much . But finally there 's something for the Leicester faithful to sing about ! 60 min : Zaha shows a turn of pace down the left to earn a corner off Pereira . The set piece falls to Ndidi , who breaks upfield and promptly loses possession . Palace give it up again . Leicester give it up again . A farcical passage of play , like a PlayStation game when neither player knows which buttons to press . 59 min : Maddison 's corner from the right is perhaps overly ambitious , a swerving , dipping shot aimed for the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and is in position to gently pluck the ball from the sky . 56 min : Tielemans tries to release Barnes with a rolled pass down the inside-left channel . It 's a lovely idea , and Barnes has the legs on Ward , but Guaita reads the danger well , tearing out of his box to batter clear . 52 min : With Maddison and Fuchs standing over the free kick , Maguire and Sakho get involved in a light shoving match . The ref tells them both to grow up . Maddison then pings the free kick off the wall . It spins to Fuchs on the right . He wedges a cross into the mixer . Maguire tries to head forward , but there 's no real power or direction on his effort . Palace clear . 51 min : Maddison tries to dribble his way down the inside-right channel .

There 's enough pace on the ball for Fuchs to simply flick his eyebrows at it , in the hope of diverting it into the top left . Not enough eyebrow ; the ball sails harmlessly wide left . Lovely ball from Evans , though . There 's just enough time for Leicester to win a corner down the right , and for Maguire to send a poor header over the bar . And that 's the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they 've not seriously worked Guaita . Palace had one attempt , and they 've scored from it .

Or maybe he 's angry at the non-award of a penalty . Either way , the ref 's not interested at all . It 's been all Leicester , so this had to happen . Milivojevic , to the left of the centre circle , fires a pass forward to McArthur , 25 yards out , level with the right-hand post . McArthur shoots towards the bottom left . Perhaps it 's going wide . The ball passes Batshuayi , who sticks out a leg and diverts it towards the bottom @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Schmeichel ! That 's a great instinctive goal . |

I was having a conversation with a good friend recently about how James Blake is the cooler , hipper version of Steven Wilson . Puzzled , he asked why , I said , as I say to you now , that they have notable similarities such as the fact that they are both well-regarded producers with talents that extend to multiple genres and styles . Secondly , they hone in on sensitive subjects of heartbreak , loss , melancholia , regret , transience ; in arresting and enveloping ways . The kind of sensitivity that wells up inside you , like your hollow body slowly filling up with fluid until a phrase or a subtle tone strikes and your watery innards come gushing out . But , let 's forget Steven Wilson , for our main focus here is James Blake ; the Mercury Prize winning singer-songwriter and heavy collaborator with a plethora of artists including Kendrick Lamar , Bon Iver , Frank Ocean , Andr ? 3000 and Travis Scott . The man gets his foot in the door everywhere he goes , and has recently @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an album of crisp subterranean production and the poetic flourishes of someone who is crawling in the dreamy trenches of love . ' I will assume form , I 'll leave the ether I will assume form , I 'll be out of my head this time I will be touchable by her , I will be reachable I could n't tell you where my head goes either ' ' Assume Form ' , James Blake Assembling as a unified whole with another person , meshing like clunky cogs , is a preoccupation for Blake on AF . It is a well-documented feeling , the feeling of incompleteness , of disassociation , or of ephemeral malaise ; captured brilliantly on the title track as if this person has reached for your ectoplasmic hand and pulled you straight into their arms , like lifting your head from underwater and all sensation is suddenly tangible and clear -- it is reachable . Reachable is what Blake is striving for , because so many of us are so searingly unreachable , suffocated by wide open halls , constricted by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ feels like a thousand pounds of weight holding your body down in a pool of water , barely reaching your chin ' ' Depression ' , Rage Almighty The demon-esque spoken word piece in the track is sampled from Rage Almighty 's slam poem ' Depression ' , further fixating on the elusive feeling that Blake is circling . Almighty 's poem is possibly the closest a human will get to describing the state of depression , and conversely Blake 's ' Assume Form ' is maybe the closest a human will come to describing the unbinding from this state . With every breath Almighty takes to deliver his lines , it is as if an invisible vacuum is depriving him of usable air to speak with ; leaving some of his lines tailing off in an airy splutter like his vocal cords have been hit by a bus . Alternatively , Blake -- so playful in morphing the stultifying excesses of depression -- juxtaposes his form accordingly in song , with the finale of ' Assume Form ' feeling as if it could ring out for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ For Blake love is a celebration of wayward giddiness and an opportunity to revel in the mysterious aura of another human ; what are they thinking ? What does that expression on their face mean ? What am I in their world ? And for the ' old ' way of thinking about things ? Well , as Blake puts it ; do n't miss it . ' When you stop being a ghost in a shell And everybody keeps saying you look well Do n't miss it Like I did Do n't miss it Do n't miss it like I did Like I did ' |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'out of' in a prepositional sense to indicate the reason or cause ('festive-season charitableness of closest rivals Manchester City' and 'having maintained their own brilliance'), not involving a causee or a VP[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

1 ) It would have been terribly tidy , for the purposes of introductions to pieces like this one , if Ole Gunnar Solskjaer 's arrival at Old Trafford had turned things entirely on their head . The last time these two met was also the last game of Jose Mourinho 's reign at Old Trafford , and Liverpool 's 3-1 win at Anfield kept them one point clear ahead of Manchester City at the top of the table . United , meanwhile , were at perhaps the lowest ebb of the Premier League era , if not in points then in perception : 11 points off the top four , with their record signing out of the side and a manager taking them nowhere . Things have not gone completely topsy-turvy since then , but where Manchester United have been flying under their new manager , Liverpool have stood still . They are still top and still one point clear , but more out of the festive-season charitableness of closest rivals Manchester City than out of having maintained their own brilliance . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ point against an in-form side tells you everything about how things have changed over the last two-and-a-half months -- and how precarious Liverpool 's lead at the top has become . 2 ) The game actually started rather promisingly , with both sides bringing great energy to the opening minutes and Liverpool forcing a backpass out of Ashley Young after only 20 seconds . United were lucky that Roberto Firmino strangely allowed the ball to run on to David De Gea when it looked as though he could have taken it around the keeper , and then wasted the indirect free kick awarded against De Gea for handling it . The real Sliding Doors moment was Firmino not nicking the ball from De Gea in the first minute when he seemingly could 've done . The pattern that the first half would take -- when it was actually in play at all , amid all the disruption that afflicted it -- was set in those early minutes : Liverpool would pass the ball around with vim , vigour and purpose , but fail to break into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ try and force a quick counter . The effort was certainly there from both teams , but the decisive quality was lacking , particularly on Liverpool 's side of things . 3 ) The inability to make things flow properly was n't helped by the constant interruptions for injuries and substitutions : Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was forced into making all three of his in the first half and was made to worry about one or two other players besides , while Jurgen Klopp had to make his first change in the 31st minute . Ander Herrera was the first to fall , replaced by Andreas Pereira ; Jesse Lingard came on for Juan Mata , only to limp back off for Alexis Sanchez ; and Daniel Sturridge was pressed into action after Firmino rolled his ankle . We knew squad depth would play a part in the fight for the title and the Champions League places , but these two sides were having it put well and truly to the test in the space of 45 minutes , let alone a whole season . 4 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not speak highly of Fred 's standing at Manchester United . For Herrera to be picked ahead of him was to be expected , but for Scott McTominay to get the nod ahead of the Brazilian -- his first start since 1st December -- was eyebrow raising . Pereira 's introduction then served to show that Fred is now fourth in the pecking order for his preferred position . At least Liverpool 's own expensive midfield signing , Naby Keita , was being kept out of the side by three in-form players , having started all five of their last five games . Fred has played just 62 minutes in 2019 , and those were against Championship strugglers Reading in the FA Cup . It is n't Fred 's fault that Manchester United made him the world 's 11th most expensive signing of the summer window last year , but to spend that amount of money on a player only for neither Mourinho nor Solskjaer to fancy playing him speaks really poorly of United 's transfer business . We laid into Jose Mourinho after the reverse fixture @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that , but the sooner United can sort out the huge issues that afflict them at board level , the better . 5 ) United had the better chances of the first half despite that disruption . The best of those chances came on 40 minutes , when Romelu Lukaku slipped a perfectly-weighted through ball in behind the Liverpool defence for Jesse Lingard to run onto . That pass was absolutely mucky and made us do all kinds of funny feelings , so imagine how fizzy our knickers got when Alisson came off his line to snatch it out of Lingard 's feet before he could inflict any damage . Not for the first time this season , it was a phenomenal piece of goalkeeping from the Brazilian . 6 ) The first half 's casualty list should have represented a significant advantage to Jurgen Klopp : he had two substitutions available to him for the second half where Solskjaer had none . Unfortunately for him , he was unable to make that count . Xherdan Shaqiri had nothing like the impact he had had in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and De Gea resolutely refused to drop the ball onto Divock Origi 's head as Jordan Pickford had done for Everton . It was not for a lack of trying anything different -- he changed shape from 4-3-3 to 4-4-1-1 , and took off both his captain and top scorer . And United did more than their part to make it difficult for the visitors , more on which shortly . But Klopp will be more than a little frustrated that nothing he could throw at the opposition made a blind bit of difference regardless of to fully react in turn . 7 ) On paper , removing Salah for Origi looks like the death-rattle of a manager on his way out , but it was justified on this occasion . The Egyptian was unable to get into the game at all , with his day encapsulated by the free kick he curled way over the bar on 15 minutes . Salah has a bit of a weird tendency to do something really Sunday league early on in a game -- blazing a shot 10 yards @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up , or that free kick -- before suddenly remember he 's Mo f'n Salah and turning into his usual unstoppable self . It 's like watching a Hulk Hogan match circa 1985 ; no matter how poor he might look early on , you 're just waiting for him to Hulk Up and destroy his opponent . That moment never came here , and so you could n't blame Klopp whatsoever when his number went up , regardless of Firmino 's earlier withdrawal . As Chelsea fans can tell you , there 's no point sticking stubbornly to plan A when it just is n't working . 8 ) It would n't be fair either to Salah or , more importantly , to Luke Shaw if we did n't point out that the main reason for that was because the left-back was absolutely brilliant for Manchester United , and easily the best player on the pitch . A combination of horrendous injuries and ill-treatment from his previous manager had threatened to make Shaw one of English football 's forgotten men , like David Bentley or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that he has put those days behind him and is ready to take up his long-promised mantle of being England 's first-choice left-back . That is great news for United and England both . When you remember that Young , Danny Rose , and Fabian Delph performed that role at the World Cup last summer , and that Shaw is putting in performances like that at 23 years old , you realise what a boon a fit and in-form Shaw would be to Gareth Southgate . 9 ) We hate to bang on about the differences between Mourinho and Solskjaer 's versions of United , but for one , big games like this act as a really good yardstick for that progress ; and two , come on , it was 0-0 and there were barely any chances on goal and we 're only just over the halfway line with these conclusions . Matt Stead and I tossed a coin to see who got which of these two big Sunday games , and I 'm beginning to feel a bit like this whole thing is somehow just a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ been said about how good the reinvigorated Paul Pogba has been , and that continued in this game , but in a totally different way The midfielder was forced to fulfil a number of different midfield roles thanks to those myriad injuries and Liverpool 's late change of shape , but performed all of them brilliantly , particularly when assisting Shaw in defence , but also as the fulcrum around which United launched their fast-paced counters-attacks that threatened to catch Liverpool out on more than one occasion . 10 ) Couple those counters and Liverpool 's urgency with the incredible tightness of the game , and were left with a ' next goal wins ' feeling that has been common for Liverpool over the last couple of months , including in that 3-1 win back in December just prior to Shaqiri 's introduction . The difference between then and now is that then the front three were firing . Liverpool scored 48 goals in 20 games between the start of the season and the end of 2018 ; since the turn of the new year , they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be as simple as opposition defences having figured out a way to play against them . United 's strategy certainly worked well enough : they were relatively happy for Liverpool to have the ball in wide advanced areas , and perfectly contented to let them pass it around their back four , but responded intelligently , quickly and sharply whenever Klopp 's side got the ball into the areas represented by a large 25-yard semi-circle radiating from the centre of De Gea 's goal . But it 's not like Liverpool do n't have players capable of breaking that down ; it 's simply that , for whatever reason , they are n't at the moment . The fact that Liverpool 's Front Three so very rarely look like what Liverpool 's Front Three are meant to look like is something that at some point is going to have to be addressed . 11 ) Philippe Coutinho 's absence has barely been felt over the past 13 months , games like this cry out for a player with his ability to make something out of nothing . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ January transfer window to follow up on their abandoned attempt to sign Nabil Fekir from Lyon last summer , either with a renewed bid for the Frenchman or by targeting somebody else . We suspect their biggest priority this summer will be to put that right . 12 ) United continued to look the more dangerous side despite Marcus Rashford effectively playing three-quarters of the game on one leg , and had a 75th-minute goal disallowed for an offside decision against Chris Smalling from a well-worked free kick . Make that an own goal , in fact , as Joel Matip passed the ball straight into his own net . The offside decision was correct , but marginal . You wonder how both sides would have reacted had it been allowed to stand ; Liverpool might have been better off pretending it had ... 13 ) " It was a strange game , We started really well . All the injuries in the game obviously cost us rhythm . It happened to us with Bobby Firmino and that was a catastrophe , " said Klopp after the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ midfield and three up front . We lost our rhythm and could n't get it back . " We gave Liverpool plenty of praise for their ability to come back from behind earlier in the season -- quite recently , in fact -- but their recent issue is just the opposite : a failure to follow through on positive starts . Against Leicester they took the lead after three minutes but ended up drawing 1-1 . Against West Ham they took the lead after 22 minutes , and again the final result was 1-1 . Against Bayern they looked threatening several times in the first 40 minutes , but failed to carry the momentum into the second half . Whether it 's down to fitness or nervousness or bad luck , it is a habit Klopp 's side will need to shake off fast if they are to stay top of the table . 14 ) Ultimately this is probably not a bad point for either side , and Solskjaer certainly seemed the more upbeat of the two managers after the game . And why would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was a world away from the performance they put in last time these two met ; and after the injury nightmares they sustained in the first half , the fact that they held on to keep a clean sheet was commendable . " You come out with so much positive today because the fans , they were the 11th man today because we had half a Marcus , " said Solskjaer . " I ca n't remember David having to make a save , so we kept them out of it , and we probably created one or two massive moments that we could have scored . " Lots of positives indeed . Shaw and Pogba were superb , as discussed , but so too were McTominay , Smalling , and Victor Lindelof , who all played to the best of their respective abilities . They may not have the best squad in the division , but Solskjaer has thus far managed to get the best out of them . 15 ) James Milner was correct in his assessment that this result will only come into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that Manchester City have their own trip to Old Trafford still to come on 24th April . But with just one point separating them from the current champions , Liverpool must find a way to keep things in their own hands , rather than relying on the generosity of either City or their own opponents . As Milner said : " We 've got to look where we can improve when we 've got the ball and teams are sat back . We 've come up against it a lot this season and obviously teams are showing us a lot of respect against us with the players we 've got , and that 's something we 've got to adapt to and work out how to break down . " 16 ) The feeling in the office here ahead of Liverpool 's trip to Manchester City back on January 3rd -- back when the Reds still had a seven point advantage -- was that a defeat would be a blow they would not recover from . ' Momentum ' and ' form ' may be statistically @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the evidence so far is that Liverpool are struggling with having lost them ; not disastrously so , but enough that if they carry on like this in their remaining 11 games , City will overtake them . It will now only take one more Liverpool slip-up to give City the opportunity to do just that . Liverpool are now less than 1,000 minutes of league football away from the title , and to keep that in their own hands , they must now make every one of them count . |

Pereira 's introduction then served to show that Fred is now fourth in the pecking order for his preferred position . At least Liverpool 's own expensive midfield signing , Naby Keita , was being kept out of the side by three in-form players , having started all five of their last five games . Fred has played just 62 minutes in 2019 , and those were against Championship strugglers Reading in the FA Cup . It is n't Fred 's fault that Manchester United made him the world 's 11th most expensive signing of the summer window last year , but to spend that amount of money on a player only for neither Mourinho nor Solskjaer to fancy playing him speaks really poorly of United 's transfer business . We laid into Jose Mourinho after the reverse fixture @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that , but the sooner United can sort out the huge issues that afflict them at board level , the better . 5 ) United had the better chances of the first half despite that disruption . The best of those chances came on 40 minutes , when Romelu Lukaku slipped a perfectly-weighted through ball in behind the Liverpool defence for Jesse Lingard to run onto . That pass was absolutely mucky and made us do all kinds of funny feelings , so imagine how fizzy our knickers got when Alisson came off his line to snatch it out of Lingard 's feet before he could inflict any damage . Not for the first time this season , it was a phenomenal piece of goalkeeping from the Brazilian . 6 ) The first half 's casualty list should have represented a significant advantage to Jurgen Klopp : he had two substitutions available to him for the second half where Solskjaer had none . Unfortunately for him , he was unable to make that count . Xherdan Shaqiri had nothing like the impact he had had in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and De Gea resolutely refused to drop the ball onto Divock Origi 's head as Jordan Pickford had done for Everton . It was not for a lack of trying anything different -- he changed shape from 4-3-3 to 4-4-1-1 , and took off both his captain and top scorer . And United did more than their part to make it difficult for the visitors , more on which shortly . But Klopp will be more than a little frustrated that nothing he could throw at the opposition made a blind bit of difference regardless of to fully react in turn . 7 ) On paper , removing Salah for Origi looks like the death-rattle of a manager on his way out , but it was justified on this occasion . The Egyptian was unable to get into the game at all , with his day encapsulated by the free kick he curled way over the bar on 15 minutes . Salah has a bit of a weird tendency to do something really Sunday league early on in a game -- blazing a shot 10 yards @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up , or that free kick -- before suddenly remember he 's Mo f'n Salah and turning into his usual unstoppable self . It 's like watching a Hulk Hogan match circa 1985 ; no matter how poor he might look early on , you 're just waiting for him to Hulk Up and destroy his opponent . That moment never came here , and so you could n't blame Klopp whatsoever when his number went up , regardless of Firmino 's earlier withdrawal . As Chelsea fans can tell you , there 's no point sticking stubbornly to plan A when it just is n't working . 8 ) It would n't be fair either to Salah or , more importantly , to Luke Shaw if we did n't point out that the main reason for that was because the left-back was absolutely brilliant for Manchester United , and easily the best player on the pitch . A combination of horrendous injuries and ill-treatment from his previous manager had threatened to make Shaw one of English football 's forgotten men , like David Bentley or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that he has put those days behind him and is ready to take up his long-promised mantle of being England 's first-choice left-back . That is great news for United and England both . When you remember that Young , Danny Rose , and Fabian Delph performed that role at the World Cup last summer , and that Shaw is putting in performances like that at 23 years old , you realise what a boon a fit and in-form Shaw would be to Gareth Southgate . 9 ) We hate to bang on about the differences between Mourinho and Solskjaer 's versions of United , but for one , big games like this act as a really good yardstick for that progress ; and two , come on , it was 0-0 and there were barely any chances on goal and we 're only just over the halfway line with these conclusions . Matt Stead and I tossed a coin to see who got which of these two big Sunday games , and I 'm beginning to feel a bit like this whole thing is somehow just a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ been said about how good the reinvigorated Paul Pogba has been , and that continued in this game , but in a totally different way The midfielder was forced to fulfil a number of different midfield roles thanks to those myriad injuries and Liverpool 's late change of shape , but performed all of them brilliantly , particularly when assisting Shaw in defence , but also as the fulcrum around which United launched their fast-paced counters-attacks that threatened to catch Liverpool out on more than one occasion . 10 ) Couple those counters and Liverpool 's urgency with the incredible tightness of the game , and were left with a ' next goal wins ' feeling that has been common for Liverpool over the last couple of months , including in that 3-1 win back in December just prior to Shaqiri 's introduction . The difference between then and now is that then the front three were firing . Liverpool scored 48 goals in 20 games between the start of the season and the end of 2018 ; since the turn of the new year , they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be as simple as opposition defences having figured out a way to play against them . United 's strategy certainly worked well enough : they were relatively happy for Liverpool to have the ball in wide advanced areas , and perfectly contented to let them pass it around their back four , but responded intelligently , quickly and sharply whenever Klopp 's side got the ball into the areas represented by a large 25-yard semi-circle radiating from the centre of De Gea 's goal . But it 's not like Liverpool do n't have players capable of breaking that down ; it 's simply that , for whatever reason , they are n't at the moment . The fact that Liverpool 's Front Three so very rarely look like what Liverpool 's Front Three are meant to look like is something that at some point is going to have to be addressed . 11 ) Philippe Coutinho 's absence has barely been felt over the past 13 months , games like this cry out for a player with his ability to make something out of nothing . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ January transfer window to follow up on their abandoned attempt to sign Nabil Fekir from Lyon last summer , either with a renewed bid for the Frenchman or by targeting somebody else . We suspect their biggest priority this summer will be to put that right . 12 ) United continued to look the more dangerous side despite Marcus Rashford effectively playing three-quarters of the game on one leg , and had a 75th-minute goal disallowed for an offside decision against Chris Smalling from a well-worked free kick . Make that an own goal , in fact , as Joel Matip passed the ball straight into his own net . The offside decision was correct , but marginal . You wonder how both sides would have reacted had it been allowed to stand ; Liverpool might have been better off pretending it had ... 13 ) " It was a strange game , We started really well . All the injuries in the game obviously cost us rhythm . It happened to us with Bobby Firmino and that was a catastrophe , " said Klopp after the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ midfield and three up front . We lost our rhythm and could n't get it back . " We gave Liverpool plenty of praise for their ability to come back from behind earlier in the season -- quite recently , in fact -- but their recent issue is just the opposite : a failure to follow through on positive starts . Against Leicester they took the lead after three minutes but ended up drawing 1-1 . Against West Ham they took the lead after 22 minutes , and again the final result was 1-1 . Against Bayern they looked threatening several times in the first 40 minutes , but failed to carry the momentum into the second half . Whether it 's down to fitness or nervousness or bad luck , it is a habit Klopp 's side will need to shake off fast if they are to stay top of the table . 14 ) Ultimately this is probably not a bad point for either side , and Solskjaer certainly seemed the more upbeat of the two managers after the game . And why would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was a world away from the performance they put in last time these two met ; and after the injury nightmares they sustained in the first half , the fact that they held on to keep a clean sheet was commendable . " You come out with so much positive today because the fans , they were the 11th man today because we had half a Marcus , " said Solskjaer . " I ca n't remember David having to make a save , so we kept them out of it , and we probably created one or two massive moments that we could have scored . " Lots of positives indeed . Shaw and Pogba were superb , as discussed , but so too were McTominay , Smalling , and Victor Lindelof , who all played to the best of their respective abilities . They may not have the best squad in the division , but Solskjaer has thus far managed to get the best out of them . 15 ) James Milner was correct in his assessment that this result will only come into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that Manchester City have their own trip to Old Trafford still to come on 24th April . But with just one point separating them from the current champions , Liverpool must find a way to keep things in their own hands , rather than relying on the generosity of either City or their own opponents . As Milner said : " We 've got to look where we can improve when we 've got the ball and teams are sat back . We 've come up against it a lot this season and obviously teams are showing us a lot of respect against us with the players we 've got , and that 's something we 've got to adapt to and work out how to break down . " 16 ) The feeling in the office here ahead of Liverpool 's trip to Manchester City back on January 3rd -- back when the Reds still had a seven point advantage -- was that a defeat would be a blow they would not recover from . ' Momentum ' and ' form ' may be statistically @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the evidence so far is that Liverpool are struggling with having lost them ; not disastrously so , but enough that if they carry on like this in their remaining 11 games , City will overtake them . It will now only take one more Liverpool slip-up to give City the opportunity to do just that . Liverpool are now less than 1,000 minutes of league football away from the title , and to keep that in their own hands , they must now make every one of them count . |

Millennials have slammed Muffin Break 's general manager on social media after she accused them of being too lazy to pursue internships with her company . Natalie Brennan was inundated with negative feedback after giving an interview over the weekend in which she said young workers were refusing to take on unpaid internships because they were too concerned about their popularity on Instagram . Her controversial claims may have now backfired , with many going online to say they will boycott the cafe chain . Ms Brennan said the rise of Instagram celebrities making their livelihood on the platform gave young people a false sense of self-righteousness and was resulting in a lack of people applying for unpaid work . ' I think everybody thinks social media is going to get them ahead somewhere . There 's definitely that inflated view of their self-importance because they have X amount of Instagram followers or this many likes , ' she told News Corp on Saturday .

Others homed in on Ms Brennan 's comment in which she said majority of her interns went on to paying work , with one writing , ' Going to muffin break tomorrow for a free breakfast and if it 's satisfactory I might pay next time . ' The Australian Council of Trade Unions joined the affray , saying nobody should work for free Ms Brennan has since broken her silence , saying the article written by News Corp did not reflect her values .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'dropped out of' in a different context, where 'hosting the Oscars' is a gerund phrase acting as the object of the preposition 'out of', not as part of the transitive out of -ing construction. There is no causer-causee relationship, and it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Until the last couple of categories , everything was ticking along as expected at this year 's Oscars . But the gasp of surprise at Olivia Colman beating Glenn Close to best actress was eclipsed only by an even bigger gasp of surprise a few minutes later , when Green Book beat Roma to best picture . Alfonso Cuaron 's subtitled , two-and-a-half-hour long black and white film was largely expected to go home with the night 's top award . It 's possible it lost out because it was a Netflix movie - the Academy may have been reluctant to set the precedent of a streaming service winning the top prize in film . Snubs and surprises aside , here are a few things we learned from this year 's Oscars . 1 . We Will , We Will , Open The Show Since You Guys Do n't Have A Host Image copyrightGetty Images The ceremony got off to a strong start as singer Adam Lambert took to the stage with Brian May and Roger Taylor . They performed Queen 's We Will Rock You and We Are The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and many more were seen rocking out in the audience . " Welcome to the Oscars ! " shouted Lambert from the stage , a greeting normally reserved for the host . In the absence of one , it was the perfect way to win over the audience both at home and in the Dolby Theatre . It turned out to be especially fitting as Bohemian Rhapsody , the biopic of the band , ended up going home with four trophies - the most of any film on the night . 2 . The guest presenters were a huge success Image copyrightGetty Images Tina Fey and Amy Poehler were widely praised during their three years fronting the Golden Globes for adding some much needed sarcasm and cynicism to awards season , which can often feel pretentious and self-important . When Kevin Hart dropped out of hosting the Oscars in December , many suggested the pair would be a good choice to present instead . Clearly , the Academy was listening . Along with their Saturday Night Live co-star Maya Rudolph , Fey @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the night , effectively giving them the role of performing traditional opening monologue . Their jokes included : " So just a quick update for everybody in case you 're confused , there is no host tonight , there wo n't be a popular movie category , and Mexico is not paying for the wall . " " Hey Chadwick Boseman , Wakanda plans have you got later ? " " Roma 's on Netflix ? What next , my microwave makes a movie ? " " Everybody look under your seats , you 're all getting one of those cheese sandwiches from the Fyre festival ! " 3 . Lady Gaga got deep about Shallow Image copyrightGetty Images All eyes were on Lady Gaga as she took to the stage halfway through the ceremony , kindly bringing her co-star Bradley Cooper with her for a live performance of Shallow , their duet from A Star Is Born . With Cooper snubbed in the best director category and an outsider for best actor , this was a rare opportunity in the night @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ back on stage later in the evening to accept the Oscar for best song , alongside Mark Ronson , Anthony Rossomando and Andrew Wyatt . Speaking backstage , Gaga said : " For this film , there were many songs written , but there was one song that was written with true , true friends of mine , who know everything about me , the ups and the downs . " Asked to expand on the struggles she 's had to overcome on her journey to Oscar glory , Gaga replied : " I was so determined to live my dreams , and yet there was so much in the way . " There were so many things I did not anticipate , that broke me , that tortured me , that traumatised me . And I think sometimes that people think that it comes easy to us , that we show up , and we have our suits on , and it 's all okay . The pair delivered a hilariously dry performance while dressed in extremely flamboyant costumes - McCarthy 's being a nod @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about to give out for best costume design . They were almost as popular as the winner , Ruth E Carter , who became the first black woman to win the prize in Academy history , for Black Panther . Image copyrightGetty Images " This win means we 've opened up the door , " Carter said backstage . " I 've been struggling , digging deep , mentoring and doing whatever I could to raise others up , and I hope through my example this means there is hope and means other people can come on in and win an Oscar just like I did . " 5 . Rami Malek acknowledged the criticism of Bohemian Rhapsody Image copyrightGetty Images Backstage in the press room , best actor winner Rami Malek was quick to acknowledge the bad reviews Bohemian Rhapsody received . Before anyone had even asked a question , he said to journalists : " I do n't think , critically , the decision on this film was unanimous , but I do appreciate everything you guys had to write @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and I learned a lot from it , so thank you . " If there was ever a way to immediately endear yourself to the press , this was it . 6 . Organisers were strict about curbing the speeches Image copyrightGetty Images At the Oscar nominees ' luncheon last month , it was announced that speeches would be limited to 90 seconds , to stop the famously over-long ceremony getting even longer . The winners of make-up and hairstyling were an early casualty of this rule , which acted as a warning shot to other winners for the rest of the night . When the winning team behind Vice did n't leave the stage as the music started playing , the mics and spotlights were turned off - a not particularly subtle way to get them to stop talking . Clearly worried he might be curbed in the same way , BlackKklansman director Spike Lee opened his acceptance speech for best adapted screenplay by saying : " Do not turn that clock on ! " The Academy was probably feeling more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one of the night 's viral moments , as he leapt into Samuel L Jackson 's arms upon winning the prize . 7 . Olivia Colman will be sleeping with her Oscar Image copyrightGetty Images Olivia Colman was the unexpected winner of best actress , an award which had been widely expected to go to Glenn Close . " This is hilarious , I 've got an Oscar , " Colman said through tears and genuine surprise , reflecting the reaction of the audience . " I could not tell you what I 'm feeling . I do n't know what to do with myself at the moment , " Colman added backstage . How much of her acceptance speech was prepared ? " None of it , " replied Colman - an entirely believable answer , especially as it turned out she forgot to mention two of her fellow nominees . " I 've just been told I completely forgot Melissa McCarthy and Yalitza Aparicio , but it 's not an everyday occurrence , so I do n't know how anyone @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ she will keep her Oscar , Colman replied : " In bed with me . Between me and my husband . He does n't know yet . He wo n't mind . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Here, 'Mr Shuker ruled himself out of becoming the permanent leader' involves a reflexive pronoun 'himself' which is coreferential with the subject, but the verb 'ruled' does not fit the semantic classes of verbs typically used in the construction (e.g., deception, force, persuasion). Additionally, the interpretation does not clearly align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The group of 11 rebels from the Labour and Conservative Parties convened this afternoon to decide who would become the ' convenor ' for the cluster of outsiders . Mr Umunna had previously made it clear that he was interested in leading the group . He told Sky yesterday : " I 'm clear I want to play the biggest role in this group . " And I think one of the things about the way we operate is the recognition that we 're all leaders . " However , following their first official meeting , the group of 11 announced they had unanimously elected Mr Shumer as ' convener ' , making him in charge of organising the group 's meetings . No official leader of the group has been elected . Over the weekend Shadow International Trade Secretary Barry Gardiner accused Mr Umunna of quitting the party solely because he knew he would never lead Labour . Independent group : Chuka Umunna has lost out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ REUTERS/EPA ) The Independent Group met to decide who would be de-facto leader this afternoon ( Image : GETTY ) He said : " It was fairly clear to me the reason he wanted to leave the Labour Party was that he knew he could never lead the Labour Party . This is about personality . " But , just minutes after the Luton South MP was announced as The Independent Group 's convenor , Mr Shuker ruled himself out of becoming the permanent leader of any newly formed party , therefore leaving open the possibility of Mr Umunna taking on the role in the future . Heidi Allen , a former Tory MP who joined the group last Wednesday , has already suggested she would back Mr Umunna as leader if the group formerly set up a new party . She said on Friday : " My view right now is that Chuka has brought us together . The Independent Group address the media after electing Gavin Shuker ( Image : REUTERS ) " But like any leader in business , politics @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the best out of that team . " And given that we 're still going to have other colleagues come and join us I do n't think we can say who that leader 's going to be until we know the range of people that are going to be in our group . " Speaking after today 's meeting , the independent MPs said they had discussed the group 's values and priorities . But former-Conservative Anna Soubry said the most important priority was Brexit . The Broxtowe MP added that the group of 11 parliamentarians will be supporting the Cooper-Letwin amendment this week . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'come out of' in a different context, referring to the origin or result of something (modelling exercises), not involving a causee or a prevention/movement interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves the phrase 'to come out of modelling exercises', where 'come' is an intransitive verb and 'modelling exercises' is an NP complement of the complex preposition 'out of', not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not yield a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves the intransitive verb 'come' with no NP object, and the phrase 'out of modelling exercises' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The Keeping Up With The Kardashian star was in Montreal Canada for the opening night of an exhibition by fashion designer Thierry Mugler , which is taking place at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts ( MMFA ) . The 38-year-old American star , who is married to musician and fashion designer Kayne West , displayed her curves in a skintight number by the French designer . A corset-style bodice highlighted her slim waist and drew attention to the busty star 's cleavage while the short hemline showcased her slender pins . |

A year ago at the track world championships in Holland , Ollie Wood found himself on the outside looking in . The 22-year-old from Wakefield was the fifth man in the four-man team pursuit squad , an equation that meant while Ed Clancy and company raced to a world title Wood was inside the velodrome cheering them on . No shame , mind , given the team pursuit has been British Cycling 's flagship squad over the years with a high number of hopefuls competing to earn a spot on the team . Twelve months on Wood is back at a UCI Track World Championship , the 116th edition of the annual meet held over the next five days in Pruzkow , Poland . Wood is again in the frame to ride the team pursuit , the qualifying round of which gets underway Wednesday at 1pm , along with the evergreen Ed Clancy , another Yorkshireman in Charlie Tanfield , and Kian Emadi and Ethan Hayter . Ollie Wood Wood , now 23 , is also scheduled to ride the two-man madison on the final night of the championships on Sunday , but being a part of the blue riband squad is the immediate goal . " Team pursuit is the big thing for British cycling , it 's the event you can count on , " said Wood . " Last year there was only me that was n't crowned a world champion . I was in the squad , but never raced . " It 's not really that hard to swallow . There 's seven or eight of us vying for a place and I 'd had a bit of sinusitis in the lead up to the worlds . " But the other lads brought it home , and I 'll be trying to help them replicate that this year . " Wood has turned any disappointment at being left out into an incentive , so much so that Clancy was moved to say in these pages on the announcement of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ long way over the last 12 months and has got an incredible turn of speed " . The two of them together helped England to a silver behind hosts Australia in the Commonwealth Games team pursuit in April before Wood and Hayter claimed a bronze in the madison at August 's European Championships . " It does n't matter who you are or what you 've done in the past , if you 're not up to the job you do n't ride at that time , " said Wood , who has four rounds including the medal race to get into the team . " I 'm pretty confident , there 's not much between us . Someone will do qualifying and then whoever misses out will swap for someone for the first round , by which time you 'll see whose going better and put them in the final . " Everyone has got something they need to work on . I 'm in quite a privileged position because I can ride 1 , 2 , 3 or 4 in team pursuit . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ still think I 'm young , which I 'm probably not . " You do n't reach your peak until your mid-20s , I 'm not sure of the science , but fingers crossed I 've got more improving to do . " Such versatility , not just in which position he rides in the team pursuit , but also in what other races he can contest , will stand him in good stead on the road to the Tokyo Olympics . " I thrive off working with other people , " said Wood , who got into cycling aged 12 when his father traded in a Vesper scooter for a push bike . " In the team pursuit there 's four of you and madison it 's just two of you , so it 's not just yourself you 're letting down , it 's someone else . But it works the other way , you could be doing well together .

The first floor of one of Burton 's shopping centres is still completely empty - seven months after a gym scrapped plans to move in . The Octagon shopping centre has not ditched the idea of opening a gym on its first floor and the area is still being marketed for other potential firms to take on .

Many shoppers had wanted to see the space used for alternative entertainment for the town , including the idea of installing a trampoline park or a soft play area , with some bemoaning plans for yet another gym . The first floor of The Octagon shopping centre is empty But bosses at The Octagon said the gym would increase footfall in the centre .

The sentence 'Theresa May might have given Melanie Onn a way out of resigning from the Labour front bench' fits the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It also implies a prevention interpretation, where Theresa May's action could prevent Melanie Onn from resigning. The verb 'given' in this context can be seen as a means to achieve a goal, fitting one of the semantic categories of verbs that appear in the V1 slot. The NP object 'Melanie Onn' is a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'resigning from the Labour front bench'. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a movement from a location (Wyoming) to another (hearts of punk rock fans), which does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate or the specific interpretations (movement/extraction or prevention) associated with the transitive out of -ing construction.

" Albert Washington Sad And Lonely LP " Originally released on Westbound Records in 1976 , available ( for the first time since 1976 ) Pressed on 180gm vinyl Limited to 1,500 copies By the time singer-songwriter Albert Washington went to record the tracks that would be released on his career-defining LP Sad and Lonely , in 1973 , he was already a veteran on the recording scene . He had singles recorded on a dozen labels , in styles ranging from gospel to blues and soul . Washington ( born in Georgia , 1939 ) made his own guitar out of a gasoline can using rubber bands as strings at the age of seven . After the family move to Cincinnati , Albert started going to clubs in the area where he was exposed to artists from the likes of B.B. King and Sam Cooke who would inspire him to become a performer . By the mid 1960 's , Washington had started his recording career , cutting several singles for various labels . His 1964 recordings for the VLM label , including the song he wrote called ' Have n't Got a Friend ' , got him noticed in England , and this in turn led to a deal with Fraternity Records in 1966 . Lonnie Mack later joined Washington on several singles for Fraternity recorded in 1969 . In 1970 , he released two singles on the Jewel label before finally recording his first LP ( Sad and Lonely ) for the Detroit-based label ' Eastbound Records ' in 1973 . Recorded with the Memphis Horns , the tracks on Sad and Lonely are prime southern gospel-infected soul , funk and raw Albert King style blues ... bearing the heavy influence of both James Brown 's funk and Otis Redding 's Memphis soul . Albert 's music is full of lament , urban hustle and lost love , the precise guitar strokes alongside Washington 's soaring vocals create the mood for the blues to invade the funk parts . The female backup singers ' harmonies are the cherry on top and the album is a funky emotional onslaught with relentless dance grooves from start to end . The outpour of talent featured here on ' Sad and Lonely ' was carefully produced by Bernie Mendelson ( Donald Austin , Melvin Sparks , Ceasar Frazier ) , engineered by Ronnie Capone ( Stax ) and then mastered by the legendary Howard Craft . Because of complications from diabetes ( Washington lost his sight and went completely blind ) he had to put his musical career on and off hiatus ... but despite the crippling effects and the tragedies that befell him over the course of his life , Albert remained an upbeat , positive figure . Washington continued to perform in blues clubs around Long Island prior to dying of complications from diabetes on October 23 , 1998 . ' Sad and Lonely ' was originally released on Eastbound ( whose parent label Westbound had hitmakers such as Funkadelic & the Ohio Players on its roster in 1973 . This rare album has now attained a cult status and fetches hefty sums on the collectors-market .

" Beartooth B-Sides 7 " Two unreleased b-side tracks not used on the bands latest release Disease Beloved , The A. Your Love Takes Me Higher ( Evil Mix ) / Awoke 12 " " In January 1985 The Beloved emerged via a John Peel session ( Produced by a very young Mark Radcliffe ) . They had a second session broadcast in October and did n't release their first single , A Hundred Words , until early 1986 . On the independent Flim Flam label they released a further 3 singles/eps , later compiled as an album , Where It Is . By autumn 1987 they had slimmed down from 4-piece to the original founding duo of Jon Marsh & Steve Waddington . Jon went to NY to pursue somelabel interest , meet some heroes - Mantronik , Latin Rascals & came back with a record box full of early house cuts . Within weeks he was tipped off by a friend about a semi-secret party in a gymnasium in Bermondsey . He went searching and found Shoom . Having already shared the record box with Steve he took himto the club within a few weeks , knowing full well he would be equally enthused/entranced ! Having just been signed to WEA , notionally as a poster-fodder pop group , the band experienced a seismic shift in direction . Their first attempt , Acid Love , was on promo 12 " within months . Their second house track was Your Love Takes Me Higher , first released in early 1989 with great club support but zero radio play . The third was Sun Rising , late summer that year which became their first hit single . The album , Happiness , a distillation of the fun & optimism & energy of the 88/89 ( acid ) house scene was released in 1990 to great acclaim and YLTMH even got a second release and just scraped into the top 40 at #39 ! A remix album , Blissed Out , was released In autumn 1990 , with a new recording It 's Alright Now as a single . Awoke is the most complete track from their last collaborative sessions . Jon continued recording as The Beloved with his wife Helena as co-writer/co-producer . Their first release in early 1993 was the single Sweet Harmony which was a major hit record worldwide . Both single and the accompanying album Conscience were their biggest selling releases . A further album X , with the single Satellite arrived in 1996 . A re-released SunRising and a best-of , Single File in 1997 . Then silence . Remixes as The Beloved , several releases under different names ( on Junior Boys Own , & NRK ) , and a full time dj career until 2005/6 . Still silence . " I ca n't split up with myself so i think of it as hibernation " says Jon . Until now . Music that is both old & new . pressed on 180g heavyweight vinyl " Bernard ' Pretty ' Purdie Soul Is ... Pretty Purdie LP " Originally released on Flying Dutchman in 1972 , first ever vinyl reissue since 1993 . Pressed on 180gm vinyl Housed in a gatefold jacket + obi strip Limited to 1,500 copies Bernard " " Pretty " " Purdie is an American drummer that needs little introduction . At an early age he began hitting cans with sticks and learned the elements of drumming techniques from overhearing lessons being given . Considered an influential and innovative soul-jazz-funk musician , he is known for his precise musical time keeping and his signature/unique drumming techniques ... considered one of the greatest drummers of his generation , in 2013 he was inducted into the ' Modern Drummer ' Hall of Fame . In 1961 he moved from his hometown to New York City where he was contracted to play session work for James Brown ( Purdie can be heard on the albums ' It 's a Man 's Man 's Man 's World ' , ' Cold Sweat ' , ' Say It Loud-I 'm Black and I 'm Proud ' and ' Get on the Good Foot ' ) . These JB sessions display some of the most sophisticated and driving shuffles ever recorded for Brown 's catalogue . Purdie then started working with Aretha Franklin as her musical director in 1970 and held that position for five years as well as drumming for Franklin 's opening act , King Curtis . Bernie Purdie was credited on countless albums ( spanning several decades ) by legendary artists like Nina Simone , Herbie Hancock , Isaac Hayes , Quincy Jones , Miles Davis , John Lee Hooker , Steely Dan , Cat Stevens , B.B. King , The Rolling Stones and Gil Scott-Heron . Purdie recorded his first solo album Soul Drums as early as 1968 and other milestone solo albums include Purdie Good ( 1971 ) , Soul Is ... Pretty Purdie ( 1972 ) and the soundtrack for the blaxploitation film Lialeh ( 1973 ) . With such an extensive body of work ( Purdie laid down the beat on over 3000 recordings ) it comes as no surprise that his rhythms have appeared as samples on groundbreaking tracks from high profile acts such as The Chemical Brothers , Massive Attack , Beck , DJ Shadow , The Prodigy ... and many others . Today we are extremely proud to present you the official reissue of Mr. Purdie 's long time out of print 1972 classic : Soul Is ... Pretty Purdie . The album ( featuring an all-star line up of guest musicians ) is a fantastic mix of Purdie 's own material and cover versions of classics by Aretha Franklin , Marvin Gaye & Bill Withers . The rhythm section , wah-wah guitars and growling horns constantly supply the funk for this uber funky jam while a probing bass and Pretty Purdie 's trademark beat helps showcase his considerable talents on this career defining album . Purdie 's rasping , worldweary vocal which is full of hurt and hope lifts the album up to unseen heights . Washes of dramatic Hammond organ , stabs of keyboards and pounding drums grab your attention . It 's as if Pretty Purdie 's all-stars are determined to surpass everything that 's gone before . Melodic and joyous , you ca n't help lose yourself in a band at the top of their game .

Though Robert Johnson may now be considered the biggest blues artist from the past , at the time Blind Willie McTell was both more popular and predated even Johnson 's earliest performances , much less Johnson 's short list of recordings .

" Clang Group , The We Do Wie Du 7 " Cloud One Spaced Out : The Very Best of Cloud One 2LP Produced by the legendary Patrick Adams , the studio-bound disco unit Cloud One made its debut in 1975 with the spectacular Atmosphere Strut and throughout the seventies , became the centerpiece for P&P , Queen Constance , Golden Flamingo , Heavenly Star , and Sound of New York , all labels ran by Peter Brown & Patricia Gilyard . At a time when most music was recorded with a full army of studio musicians , Cloud One records were mostly played , arranged and mixed in their entirety by Patrick Adams himself ! ! !

While there 's been other compilations , this is the first official P&P collection dedicated to the work of Patrick Adams as Cloud One . Spaced Out compiles the best of Cloud One 's output with songs from their Atmosphere Strut LP , their Funky Disco Tracks EP and a number of known 12 " singles as well as some hard-to-find titles like " Patti Duke " , " Do n't Let My Rainbow Pass Me By " , and " Flying High " .

Whatever the subject matter , Cornell could put across the meaning of the song in what , as with all great singers , seemed effortless , heartfelt , manner . Cornell Campbell ( b.1948 , Jamaica ) had his first musical outings in the early 1960 's for Coxanne Dodd 's studio 1 . Such tracks as " Under The Old Oak Tree " , " My Treasure " and as a duo alongside Ray Patton , " Slavation " and " Sweetest Girl " . These were local hits and led to Cornell joining vocal group the Uniques . Which led the way to forming his own group , based on that " Uniques " style , a style that suited his voice so well , they would be called the Eternals . A highlight of which would be the timeless songs " Stars " and " Queen of The Minstrels " . The 1970 's saw Cornell move on to work with producer Bunny " Striker " Lee . A very successful partnership that produced a stream of hits . A theme of the " Gorgon " , featured in many of the songs , the mighty figure unbeatable at the Jamaican Sound Systems . Such hits as " The Gorgon " , " The Conquering Gorgon " , " Natty Dread In A Greenwich Farm " all become Jamaican favourites . Who the Gorgon was ? Bunny Lee or Campbell himself , was of no concern , it was a style that conquered all . Campbell 's Rastafarian beliefs also added a depth to the songs he sang and made a convincing musical statement , whatever the subject matter be Injustice , Corruption or heartfelt love songs . We have compiled some of Cornell Campbell 's finest tracks cut with the great producer Bunny Lee put them alongside their dub cuts that were worked over at King Tubby 's studio . The aforementioned " Dance In A Greenwich Town " , " Gorgon " , the timeless " Stars " and " Natty Dread In a Greenwich Farm " all cuts that ruled the sound systems when they first appeared in the 1970 's . So sit back and enjoy the Greenwich Farm Sessions where vocal meets version Respect " Courtneers , The Falcon 1LP Following on from the success of St. Jude on red vinyl for Record Store Day in 2018 , The Courteeners ' second album ' Falcon ' will be released on limited edition 180 gram white vinyl for Record Store Day 2019 .

( NON-RETURNABLE ) Recorded at Strawberry 2 with producer Chris Nagle , the album captured Crispy Ambulance at the peak of their creative powers . " When we started discussing the track selection for this new vinyl edition , " says singer Alan Hempsall , " it struck me that the songs which made the cut were all written and recorded within a very short space of time . July 1980 to September 1981 marked an intensive period of creativity informed by the new music we were being exposed to , and films we 'd seen around that time : Eraserhead , Scorpio Rising , Apocalypse Now , Warhol 's Dracula and Argento 's Suspiria all played a part . We became curious about what would result from a partial breaking away from traditional song structures and experimenting with the concept of soundtrack and incidental music . Film music looking for a film , so to speak .

David Amram The Manchurian Candidate LP This stunning soundtrack to John Frankenheimer cult classic is released here for the very first time on LP , with exclusive sleeve notes by David Armram himself ... David Bowie The World Of David Bowie 1LP Decca launched its much-loved World Of Series in 1968 . The first album set out the series ' stall perfectly , looking at one of the label 's biggest selling artists -- yet hardly one that chimed with the counter culture in 1968 . The World Of Mantovani -- SPA 1 , ( or PA 1 in mono ) -- was a 14 track collection , each track a different selection from his sizeable Decca album catalogue . Released in the autumn of the year , it acted as a perfect primer , and its price , 17s , put it shy of the 37s 6d of the full price albums . Its whole raison d'etre was to drive sales of the artist 's deeper repertoire -- dip in here and then indulge further -- the rear sleeve clearly offered the catalogue numbers of the parent albums . The series would run throughout the 70s and become a ubiquitous feature of the label . It was taken so seriously , that David Bowie himself offered the track listing for his own addition to the series , ( SPA/PA 58 ) , which was released in March 1970 after the success of the Phillips-released single Space Oddity . It also showed how the World Ofs could be a veritable treasure trove for rarities and one-offs , as it contained the first official release of Let Me Sleep Beside You , Karma Man and In The Heat Of The Morning . According to Kevin Cann 's invaluable book on Bowie 's early years , Any Day Now , Bowie bought a copy of the original himself from a record shop on Beckenham High Street . It became a big seller -- indeed , Decca repackaged it -- when Bowie finally became a big star . Imagine the shock people had thinking they had The Jean Genie when all they had was Uncle Arthur and Little Bombardier .

The song builds from a quiet , self-destructive thought as though Issy Ferris is whispering in your ear , and becomes an outcry of both suffering and delight , led by Archie Sylvester 's powerful scorching guitar . With their combination of roots and blues , the duo deliver a sound which sits somewhere between Jack White and First Aid Kit . " Burning River " , which was also recorded with Michael Rendall and clocked up well over half a million plays in its first two months on Spotify . The songs were written during the pair 's writing trips to Iceland and find the band at their most raw and powerful yet .

We really enjoyed recording it . ' Women ' ( feat Jason Derulo ) is an unbelievable song that we 're really honoured to feature Jason Derulo , one of our good buddies , the best , most talented artist that we know . It 's just a powerful song , we think it 's really going to touch a lot of lives and it really , a lot of our songs do this but this is probably the song that kinda puts women on a platform the most ... and really it 's a good reminder for us that we would n't be here without women , without our mums , without our wives . ' Ca n't Hide Red ' ( feat . Jason Aldean ) is every red neck 's anthem . Man , we 've had so much fun recording that one . It kinda started as a joke song to be honest and then it turned into a rocker that we could n't deny and could n't not put on this album .

Fuzzy Haskins A Whole Nother Thang LP " Originally released on Westbound Records in 1976 , available for the first time since 1976 Pressed on 180gm vinyl Housed in a gatefold jacket + obi strip Limited to 1,500 copies A co-founder of the P-Funk movement , Clarence Eugene " " Fuzzy " " Haskins was born in West Virginia in 1941 and started as a singer in the doo-wop vocal group The Parliaments , led by George Clinton in the late 1950s . He was a founding member of the groundbreaking and influential 1970s funk bands PARLIAMENT-FUNKADELIC . Fuzzy Haskins toured and appeared on P-Funk albums as a singer , and occasionally as a guitarist , throughout the 1970s . He is a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame , inducted in 1997 . Despite the success of Mothership Connection , Fuzzy Haskins was growing frustrated that his songs were no longer being featured on albums by Funkadelic and Parliament . He also watched as Bootsy Collins , a relative newcomer to the family , embarked upon a solo career . This added to Haskins ' frustration and at the height of P-Funk 's popularity , Fuzzy left the ensemble to pursue a solo career . Fuzzy Haskins released his first solo album , A WHOLE NOTHER THANG , in 1976 . The album features funk ' all-stars ' from the likes of Bernie Worrell , Donald Austin and Bootsy Collins . Haskins wrote eight of the nine songs and served as producer , singer , songwriter , guitarist and even drummer . The result was album that oozed quality . With his brand of earthy , heavyweight funk Fuzzy Haskins ' solo work fits right in with many of the other great P-Funk side projects . Also featured on the album is the track " " Cookie Jar " " , which was later recorded by Prince . Despite the quality of music , the album did n't sell in vast quantities and did n't find the audience it deserved . ' A Whole Nother Thang ' is a true gem to funk fans , mint vinyl copies are hard to find and pricey these days . If you are a Funkateer ... this one 's for you .

Ginger Johnson & and His African Messengers Witchdoctor Vinyl 7 " " In 2015 , Freestyle Records re-issued the groundbreaking ' African Party ' album by the somewhat mysterious figure of Ginger ( George Folunsho ) Johnson . Recorded in 1967 , nearly 20 years after he first arrived in post war London and immediately began performing and recording with London jazz stalwarts Ronnie Scott and Pete King . Credited by those in the know ( including Giles Peterson , Louie Vega , Fela Kuti 's drummer Tony Allen & writer David Toop ) as the godfather of afrobeat , Ginger and his group , The African Messengers enjoyed a varied career as the go to afro-cuban percussion group for recording sessions in the UK , working with Georgie Fame , Osibisa , Madeleine Bell and Quincy Jones - as well as acting us mentor to a young Fela Kuti and members of Cymande who cut their teeth as members of his ensemble . They also performed at The Royal Variety Performance , Ginger 's music featured in the James Bond film ' Live & Let Die ' and Ginger himself appears on screen drumming in the Hammer Films cult classic ' She ' , and famously performed with The Rolling Stones in Hyde Park in 1969 . Aside from ' African Party ' , and several Hi Life singles released on the Melodisc label in the 50 's , it was thought that there were no further recordings by this hugely influential musician . Eventually , prompted by the attention afforded the Freestyle re-issues - Ginger 's son Dennis Dee Mac Johnson was contacted by Uchenna Ikonne , a renowned African music collector , who told him he had discovered one rather battered original copy of a 45 single , released in the mid 70 's on the short lived ' Afrodesia ' label , For Record Store Day 2019 , Freestyle are proud to release the 2 tracks on a fresh vinyl 45 . ' Witchdoctor ' is not the track of the same name on African Party , but it and ' Nawa ' ( written by Dizzy Gillespie cohort Chano Pozo ) demonstrate a musical progression as funk had stamped it 's indelible footprint on Ginger 's music along with afro-cuban rhythms and jazz . Thanks to Claudio Passavanti at Doctor Mix Studios in London , who has done quite an amazing restoration and re-mastering job on this long lost music .

One of the many highlights of the record , the funk track " " Heatwave " " was written and recorded by Jazzanova together with Berlin based singer Olivier St. Louis . For this very own remix they notch up the performance by adding even more funkyness to the mix turning " " Heatwave " " into a floor filler with an exclamation mark .

Limited to 1,000 copies Includes insert with liner notes & unseen photos In 1979 , inspired by the massive success of both " " Saturday Night Fever " " and " " The Godfather " " movies , shock comedian Rudy Ray Moore created DISCO GODFATHER , as a black-POV parody of the disco phenomenon . Disco Godfather is a classic Blaxploitation movie about an ex-cop , with a talent for both martial arts and jive , who sets out to fight the PCP epidemic taking over his neighborhood . Directed by J. Robert Wagoner , the film is starring Rudy Ray Moore ( who also co-produced the film ) and established genre actress Carol Speed . Already a legendary X-rated comedy star by the 1970 's , Rudy Ray Moore later transitioned into movies . With the money he earned performing at clubs he financed DOLEMITE ( 1975 ) which would turn out to be his most iconic and successful film . Moore returned to performing stand-up during the ' 80s and ' 90s and gained a new fan base when rappers like Snoop Dogg and Busta Rhymes began sampling his records and hailing him as " the Godfather of Rap " for his use of rhymes in dialogue . In 2018 ( 10 years after Moore 's death ) , it was announced that Craig Brewer ( Hustle and Flow ) would direct the upcoming biographical-dramedy " Dolemite Is My Name " about Rudy Ray Moore . The Netflix film will star Eddie Murphy as Rudy , other cast members will include Wesley Snipes and Chris Rock . Every cool film needs a cool soundtrack , so the movie 's producers turned to the band " Juice People Unlimited " to crank out a funky disco flavor bomb . This studio band consisted of many noted musicians , including legendary drummer James Gadsen ( one of the most recorded drummers in R&B music , having played on hundreds of hit records ) ; bass player David Shields ( Smokey Robinson , Patti Labelle , Gloria Gaynor ) ; guitarist Paul Jackson Jr . ( The Temptations , The Pointer Sisters , Bobby Womack ) ; guitarist Wali Ali ( Rick James , Marvin Gaye ) & percussionist Melvin Webb ( The Gap Band , Janet Jackson ) . The funky tunes on this album were written and arranged by the legendary Ernie Fields Jr. , recognized for his baritone sax work with such iconic artists as Marvin Gaye , Rick James and Freddie Hubbard . Fields ' other credits include working as a session musician for ( as well as touring with ) Fred Wesley in the 1990s ... and more recently his involvement as a music contractor for American Idol , The Voice and X Factor . Delivering four lengthy tracks ( including trippy sound effects and slurry nasally vocals ) , the band succeeds in capturing the essence of the movies ' message and concept perfectly . With distinct nods to the drug hallucination sequences depicted in the film , the repetitive funky disco groove reflects a state of trance that fits the imagery on the film like a glove . The original ( and never before reissued ) 1979 vinyl soundtrack has become a highly sought-after album due to its incredibly high caliber of respected studio performers and collaborators . Collectors will shelve out a hefty amount for an original copy .

Dark and moody material but with a strange twist as you can hear on the synth cover of " The Lion Sleeps Tonight " & the old-timey cabaret-styled " I 'm Getting Married Today " , two truly bizarre pieces that does n't seem to fit at all ... and somehow by not fitting actually fits perfectly , which is the real story of A Historical Glimpse of the Future .

Max Richter La Prima Linea 1LP " First Release on Vinyl Limited Numbered Edition on Transparent Red Vinyl Italian director Renato de Maria 's 2009 crime drama La Prima Linea ( The Front Line ) takes us back to the late seventies and the home-grown Italian terrorist cell of the same name . Based on the real memoirs of a Prima Linea member , Sergio Segio ( played by Riccardo Scamarcio ) the militant underground organisation employs violence to achieve their political ends and ultimately to attempt to free Sergio 's lover , Susanna , from prison . The beautiful and melancholic soundtrack is instantly recognisable as Max Richter 's work , making its debut here on vinyl for Record Store Day . Richter is a respected composer in his own right , having accumulated a large fanbase for his studio albums ( Memoryhouse , The Blue Notebooks and most recently , Sleep ) .

" Menzingers , The No Penance/Cemetery 's Garden 7 " Exclusive RSD standard black 7 " - limited print . Unreleased material available for the first time Metavari Absurda ( Music Reimagined in the Short Films of David Lynch ) LP " First ever reissue ! Limited to 1,000 copies Deluxe reverse-board printed jacket with a custom die-cut center hole Includes an 8 page booklet Metavari , the moniker of American composer and electronic musician Nathaniel David Utesch introduces his new album : ' ABSURDA : Music Reimagined in the Short Films of David Lynch ' . The album contains 12 tracks , each of which have been scored in unison to a collection of short works from filmmaker David Lynch . Spanning Lynch 's career , the films represent a breadth from student work ( e.g. , ' Six Figures Getting Sick ' and ' The Alphabet ' ) to contemporary pieces like the title track , ' Absurda ' , and his now infamous animations : ' Industrial Soundscape ' and ' Dream #7 ' . ' ABSURDA ' plays through as thoughtfully as the rest of Metavari 's synth-heavy catalog , but there 's an evolution here that explores a deeper level of experimentation . It is a chaotic collage of sound , rhythm , and melody ; weaving through both harmonious passages and abrasive acousmatic sound . An almost " plunderphonic " execution of MIDI sequencing and percussion utilizing PCM synths and foley samples . It 's clear that Metavari has found himself on a new path as he carves his niche in electronic music . Metavari describes the process as a " scribbling on top " of Lynch 's films . " I 've followed David Lynch 's career my entire adult life ; cherished pages from a series of love letters that feel like they were written just for me . This project is the semblance of what I 've scribbled , in my own language , on top of those letters as I write back to the man who has inspired me more than he 'll ever know . " The album comes packaged in a deluxe reverse-board printed jacket with a custom die-cut center hole , also included is a special 8-page booklet and digital download card .

CD Edition Mo-dettes , The The Story So Far 1LP SEMINAL 1980 POST PUNK UK TREASURE . LIMITED 180GRM VINYL FROM THE ORIGINAL MASTERS + LYRIC SHEETS ON INNER SLEEVE + DIE-CUT A4 STICKER . INCLUDES PAINT IT BLACK , WHITE MOUSE DISCO & KRAY TWINS - Originally released in 1980 on Deram Records ( a division of Decca ) , this is the first time this seminal UK post-punk album has been reissued on vinyl . The Mo-dettes were an all-female band , formed in 1979 by guitarist Kate Korris ( The Slits ) , Jane Crockford ( Bank of Dresden ) , Ramona Carlier ( Kleenex ) and June Miles-Kingston . They were in the heart of the late 70s London art , film & punk scene with some of the members assisting Malcolm McLaren on the set of the film , The Great Rock ' n ' Roll Swindle , as well as living in a community squat with Joe Strummer and Sid Vicious . Their branding was eye catching too , perhaps helping to pull in a wider audience , or it could have been influenced by some of the band members ' art backgrounds too . The album features a version of The Rolling Stones ' Paint It Black , a remake of their debut single White Mice ( renamed White Mice Disco ) , plus a cover of Edith Piaf 's Milord , along with other original penned songs.The band toured for four years and they supported two-tone ska bands such as Madness and The Specials before breaking up finally in 1982 . When the members went their separate ways , many continued to work and be associated with artists such as Fun Boy Three , Everything But The Girl , and The Communards , a.o . The ' Scene ' series were issued on CD only in 1998 , when labels first seriously began to look back into their archive . Aside from the big hitters on this collection , Decca had an absolute wealth of one or two-off curios on 45 -- if the group were not successful enough , the group would not have been passed on to the albums department . . . hence so many wonderfully diverse and underground sides .

New Barbarians , The ( Ronnie Wood/Keith Richards ) Buried Alive 3 x 12 " / LP " The reasons that Ronnie Wood , Keith Richards , Ian McLagan , Stanley Clarke , Bobby Keys and Joseph ' Ziggy ' Modeliste toured as The New Barbarians in 1979 started piling up five years earlier , when Keith took time out from the Stones to join Ronnie , then finding time away from The Faces to record his first solo album . Their obvious affinity , both musically and personally , led not only to Ronnie replacing Mick Taylor in the Stones but to the formation of the New Barbarians as a truly back-to-basics Rock ' n ' Roll project . Neatly timed to coincide with the punishment duly allotted for Keith 's 1977 Canadian drugs bust , the band performed alongside the Stones at two 1979 benefit gigs for the Canadian National Institute For The Blind before embarking on a short North American tour . In May they headlined at t he Capitol Center Arena in Largo , Maryland , and this superb 3 LP set documents that show . Originally released on black vinyl as a boxset in 2010 , it is now being made available exclusively for RSD 2019 on black yellow and red vinyl x 3 ( triple vinyl ) in a beautiful gatefold sleeve - this historic epic show is an essential purchase for all fans of Ronnie , Keith and The Rolling Stones - for Rock ' n ' Roll outlaws everywhere .

Night Beats The Sonic 's ' Boom ' LP " Few artists loom larger in the garage-rock legend than THE SONICS . With raunchy , cult classics such as " SHOT DOWN " and " HE 'S WAITIN " off their 1966 album , BOOM , the pioneering band staked their claim on rock ' n roll , putting the Pacific Northwest scene on the map and cementing their place as heroes for future generations . Those that followed include Danny Lee Blackwell 's NIGHT BEATS , a group with its own underground origins as well as a direct , fuzz and feedback-coated link between the impact of THE SONICS and their own potent sound . It 's this connection that led NIGHT BEATS to record BOOM in its entirety , a proper homage to their musical forbearers . Blackwell , along with an arsenal of ace musicians manage to maintain the spirit of original recordings like " CINDERELLA , " " DO N'T YOU JUST KNOW IT , " and a particularly unhinged version of " LOUIE LOUIE , " while injecting their own brand of earth-quakin ' soul-shakin , maximum R&B . Blackwell takes the lead on vocals and guitar , interpreting Gerry Rosalie 's mean scream with ease . Mike Brandon holds things down on drums as his partner in crime , bass genius Nate Ryan , while Julien O'neill grooves things up on keys and Joe Santa Maria wails on the horns . Finishing touches come from Marlon Rabenreither on acoustic guitar , plus Cole Alexander and Dan Gerbang on backing vocals -- all working together to keep THE SONICS ' legacy intact , even as they tear the whole place down . Next time you hear a loud boom and your windows rattle , it 's probably a sonic boom alright ; but on the other hand , it might just be " THE SONICS BOOM .

The French film composer Francois De Roubaix recorded compositions for a diversity of movies . One of them is the Belgian cult horror classic Les L ? vres Rouges . The soundtrack to the erotic vampire film consists of different musical elements and it is an seductive score . The title track included on this 7 inch is one of Francois ' finest pieces of music . The colourful compositions supports the love story and the different ways the vampires interact . Years after its recording Hip-Hop producers used samples from the score in their songs , among others Lil Wayne . The movie has been voted by authors , directors , actors and critics as one of the top horror films of all time . According to the critic Geoffrey O'Brien : " Daughters of Darkness leans flamboyantly toward the artistic end of the Lesbian vampires spectrum , with Delphine Seyrig sporting Marienbad-like costumes and the Belgian director conjuring up images of luxurious decadence replete with feathers , mirrors , and long , winding hotel corridors . At the film 's core , however , is a deeply unpleasant evocation of a war of nerves between Seyrig 's vampire and the bourgeois newlyweds into whose honeymoon she insinuates herself .

Performed by Budd and two other jazz musicians Jeff Clyne and Chris Karan , both of whom were part of the Dudley Moore Trio , the distinctive score continues to inspire musicians worldwide . Pianist Budd , drummer Chris Karan ( also on evocative tabla ) and bassist Jeff Clyne ( with guitarists Brian Daly and Judd Proctor ) carry the emotional weight of the soundtrack which has inspired a number of covers and tributes . This revised edition comes with snippets of dialogue including that classic and sample-inviting line by Caine , " " You 're a big man but you 're in bad shape , for me it 's a full-time job . Now behave yourself " " .

The missing piece in the incredibly successful new release and reissue campaign for the Twin Peaks series has been the mysterious soundtrack to Season Two ! The TV program aired in 1990-1991 , without the traditional accompanying record release , and it was not until 2007 that the soundtrack album was issued , and only as a very limited CD via David Lynch 's own label . And so we have an artefact that has never been available on digital services , and more importantly , never on vinyl , and long gone ( & expensive on the secondary market ) on CD . And so there is nothing more ready for plugging into the set of Twin Peaks releases from Rhino , especially following on from the acclaimed pair of Season 3 soundtrack albums from 2017 ! Once again we have David Lynch himself overseeing the reissue , which will duplicate ( on CD ) the original 24 page collector 's picture book ( with full page stills from the series ) . Plus finally a vinyl issue , pressed on 180g vinyl & with stills from the film included in the gatefold jacket . This is a release that will be eagerly embraced by Twin Peaks fans , & a great addition to our much beloved Twin Peaks catalog .

Having always loved the combination of film and music ( aged 17 he gave up a place at film school to pursue a career in music ) Peter Gabriel 's first opportunity to really marry these twin interests came when he was asked to create the music for Alan Parker 's film ' Birdy ' in 1985 . Further film work , including his music for Martin Scorsese 's ' The Last Temptation of Christ ' ( that became the album ' Passion ' ) and the soundtrack to Philip Noyce 's film ' Rabbit-Proof Fence ' ( released as the album ' Long Walk Home ' ) , has continued to feed that interest . Alongside those longer soundtrack commissions Peter Gabriel has also regularly contributed songs to a diverse range of movies and this compilation explores this other connection forged by Peter between his music and film . Rated PG is an opportunity to bring together in one place and for the first time a selection of songs , be they written especially for , or used to notable effect in , movies and includes new and previously unreleased versions , otherwise unavailable songs and a brand new track .

What better opportunity than to include it in the 2019 Record Store Day ? During a late night recording session at the now legendary ' Iron Works ' studio , Fatty was playing the original when Earl 16 walked into the control room and exclaimed that ' Be Thankful For What You 've Got ' was one of his all time favourite records . Fast forward an hour and Horseman ( drums ) , Dianne White ( bass ) and Bubblers ( keys ) had laid down the instrumental ready for Earl 16 's performance - all captured live in one take ! This was a truly organic recording by one of the UK 's top rhythm sections and needless to say their natural groove has done the original justice . Prince Fatty quoted this as " One of my favourite songs and a great record , having first heard it sampled in the 90s hip hop era the lyrics left a mark on me . In the current , over consuming world , the meaning resonates to me even louder . Recorded live in the studio analog style for the modern digital world !

Zeitkratzer 's boss revisits the piano guts some years after his much acclaimed and genre-defying album Inside Piano ( 2011 ) . While Friedl 's first solo album defined the practice of playing on the strings of a grand piano and revealed the source of sounds we could n't identify on some of Zeitkratzer 's recordings , Music For Piano , ... **28;1098;TOOLONG , brings concrete and quasi electroacoustic sounds together with clearly articulated piano notes . In the enigmatically titled Music For Piano , ... **28;1128;TOOLONG , Reinhold Friedl moves freely from plain motifs , to walls of noise and from screeching sounds to pure tones , while keeping strong compositional structures and transparent musical forms . A truly beautiful and ear-pleasing record that unashamedly shows the composer 's and performer 's love for the piano . Beside his activities as composer and as leader of the internationally acclaimed new music group zeitkratzer , Reinhold Friedl is renowned for his passionate and peerless piano performances . He invented numerous new techniques of playing a grand piano directly on the strings and baptised it " inside piano " . " Reinhold Friedl has developed his " inside piano " technique to such a level of delicacy and precision that the tonalities extracted from the instrument bear little resemblance of their acoustic source . " , wrote The Wire Magazine London . Phosphormagazine stated : " " Unbelievable that one can creates such sounds with a grand piano ! " " and the Australian Realtime attested " tremendous power . Overwhelming ! " Reinhold Friedl studied with piano with Renate Werner and Paul Schwarz in Stuttgart , Alexander von Schlippenbach and Alan Marks in Berlin , composition with Mario Bertoncini ( nuova consonanza ) and Witold Szalonek .

" For the listener , great songs are a passport to another world . For this artist , these songs ( written between 2005 and 2009 ) kicked off a decade of magic and travel .

Shocking Blue 's single collection ( A 's & B 's ) part 2 continues where part 1 left off . The album begins with the band 's last ever hit single " Oh Lord " ( released on March 26,1973 ) . " Oh Lord " made it to #14 in the Dutch charts , and was taken from the album ' Ham ' . Robbie van Leeuwen had written the songs for Ham late in 1972 , whilst confined to bed suffering from jaundice and enduring a creative block after years of writing , producing , performing and touring . Whilst van Leeuwen retained his involvement in recording , plus radio and TV appearances , this proved to be a short-lived arrangement . Ultimately , the singles " Let me carry your bag/I saw you in June " , " Dream on Dreamer/ Where the picknick was " and the remixed album Ham ( retitled in late 1973 as Dream on Dreamer , which featured 4 new tracks ) were his last recordings with Shocking Blue and he left the band early in 1974 . This collection ends with songs from the albums At Home from 1969 , and Scorpio 's Dance from 1970 . The classic era for Shocking Blue , which produced the tracks that catapulted them to fame way beyond their native Holland . Fame that endures today , " Love Buzz " is now an acknowledged masterpiece , gaining cult status worldwide after Nirvana released it as a first single in 1988 . " Love Buzz " has been covered dozens of times all over the world , and with the smash hit " Venus " , Robbie van Leeuwen remains the only Dutch composer to make it to #1 in the USA . That combination of great song-writing , the unique vocal talents of Mariska Veres and a super tight band has ensured that the name of Shocking Blue will live on forever .

Smiles / Astronauts Just A Star ( Original ) / Just A Star ( Cover Version ) 7 " " London-based label Backatcha bring together the old with the new with a double A-side 7 " single from two separate California bands . One side features the highely sought-after early seventies psych-rock-folk grail , ' Just A Star ' by Smiles - famously unearthed by DJ Shadow becoming his " " most asked-about record in a mix " " ( Shadow , 2018 ) . The other side features a new cover version of the song heard here for the first time by Oakland-based outfit Astronauts , etc. , the project of Toro Y Moi touring keyboardist Anthony Ferraro . ' Just A Star ' was first recorded in 1971 by Smiles , a fellow-Californian band fronted by Larry Smith and Rich Norkunas , two teenagers living in turbulent Nixon-era America . They financed the project by promising to provide a copy to friends , schoolmates , family and anyone else they could find willing to pay an upfront donation of ten-dollars . They pressed one-hundred 45rpm records and distributed it amongst their benefactors and soon after the record disappeared into oblivion . Three-decades later , DJ Shadow finds a copy in a Minnesota record store and plays it for his BBC 's Essential Mix series in 2002 revealing no names . It soon became one his most coveted discoveries and until recent years , this elusive 45 remained an enigma with few collectors knowing its origins until its title was revealed at online auction with less than a handful of original copies known to exist . Growing up in a midst of changing social ideas , Smiles were in their mid-teens when they recorded ' Just A Flag ' . Norkunas explains - " " two young musicians still ineligible to vote collaborated in writing a song that reflected their angst and unanswered questions about what was happening in the world around them . " Wind the clocks forward to present-day and turn-over for Astronauts. etc version and the songs sentiment is as relevant now as it was nearly fifty-years ago . Recorded in January , 2019 in Oakland , Astronauts , etc. frontman Ferraro breathes new life into ' Just A Star ' . Last year 's ' Living In Symbol ' album earned high praise from advocates of all stripes and the comparisons abounded . Whilst nods to David Axelrod , Latin psychedelia , and Canterbury are heard woven into the arrangements , the album opened its doors to a signature sound with Ferraro running in his own lane . His interpretation of ' Just A Star ' is testament to that , once again carrying the song onto a timeless wavelength . An Exclusive Record Store Day release , both Smiles 1971 original version and Astronauts , etc. ' s 2019 version of ' Just A Star ' , are made available for the first time on a black-vinyl 7 " single released by Backatcha Records .

" Forty years ago , us three teenagers started a little band to play a musical style that had long since passed , and most folks had never heard of , this Rockabilly music . Forty years later we stand together and still get that same thrill and exhilaration from the music . That feeling is what makes the fireworks go off and the sparks fly . It makes the world go around . " -- Brian Setzer " Making a new Stray Cats album for 2019 in Nashville seems like the exact right thing , right time , right place , and right band for the gig ! We have an album 's worth of new songs that are classic rockabilly while keeping the music and style current and fresh , like always . In other words ... A Stray Cats album . " --Slim Jim Phantom " They say history repeats itself and I now know that 's true . 40 years after Brian , Jim and I formed the Stray Cats , we are back ! I 'm so excited to be in the studio with my brothers . I can tell you that this will be the best Stray Cats album we have ever made .

Todd Rundgren Bearsville/WB era A & B sides singles collection on LP 4LP box The first time all of Todd 's Bearsville & WB singles have been compiled for release . Featuring many unique edits and mixes previously out of print . Remastered . Tony Joe White LFAT LP Recorded live December 5 , 1980 and features the classic ' Polk Salad Annie ' along with ' Mama Do n't Let Your Babies Grow Up Tp Be Cowboys ' . Few rockers wring more out of less , and cut across more musical categories in the process , than Tony Joe White . The bard of the Louisiana swampland makes it look so natural and sound so organic , telling stories with his wah-wah guitar over a spare , stripped-down rhythm section . Yet this 1980 live taping for the Austin City Limits series offers more than variations on a theme of " Polk Salad Annie " ( his 1969 smash about a granny-chomping gator ) . As a writer , he shows an affinity for tender balladry on the soulful " Rainy Night in Georgia " ( a chart-topper for Brook Benton ) and " Billy , " while cuts such as " Mama Do n't Let Your Cowboys Grow Up to Be Babies , " " Red Neck Women " ( not to be confused with Gretchen Wilson ) , and " That 's the Way a Cowboy Rocks and Rolls " would find him today classified as country . Though " Disco Blues " is pure boogie , " I Get Off on It " could pass as disco . And for those who ca n't get enough of " Polk Salad Annie , " there 's plenty more in that vein as well . --Don McLeese . Tosca No Hassle 2LP Blue Gatefold LP No Hassle is the fifth studio album by Austrian downtempo / trip-hop duo Tosca , released by ! K7 in 2009 .

Pressed on Translucent Purple 180g Vinyl Trembling Bells & Alex Rex I Am The King 10 " " This RSD release will act as the final release from Glasgow based Psych Folk band , Trembling Bells . " After 10 years of being in a band which has felt more like a family , these are the final two statements from Trembling Bells . " I Am The King " is inspired by various Greek myths . It 's about self destruction- feeling so jaded by the fruit machine of life that you start taking yourself apart as the final act of entertainment . " Medusas " sounds like it 's a Greek myth but is actually about jelly fish . The Alex Rex songs are both covers . In April 2018 my younger brother , Alastair , passed away in his sleep . I dream about him regularly . In one of my dreams we sang the " Night Visiting Song " together as a way of saying goodbye and to induce his passage into the world beyond . " You Know More Than I Know " is a John Cale song . " Quote from Alex Neilson of Trembling Bells and Alex Rex . " Trojans , The ( Gaz Mayall ) Top Hits LP " Spanning four decades over 32 years , The Trojans have constantly evolved , re-inventing themselves through several incarnations while always remaining one happy family .

During the first few years they recorded several albums that were well received on the UK underground all on Gaz 's own independent label Gaz 's Rockin ' Records . The first was ' Ala-Ska ' which featured the classic single ' Gaelic Ska ' and launched a whole new genre of Afro-Celtic fusion that has since become a hallmark of The Trojans ' sound . The 18 tracks included here cover the three main incarnations of The Trojans line-ups and features guest appearances from Prince Buster , Rico , Jennie Bellestar and Zoe Bevlin .

Includes early recordings from the Attack , the Birds , Marc Bolan and the Small Faces . Various - Ghost World OST Ghost World LP FIRST TIME RELEASED ON VINYL ( BLUE VINYL ) --As he did with Crumb , director Terry Zwigoff has created a soundtrack as eclectic and riveting as his movie subjects . The sounds of early jazz and blues play a crucial role in the events of Ghost World , and the music heard here is some of the best ever recorded . Skip James 's classic " Devil Got My Woman " from 1931 may be the best-known work on this soundtrack , but it hardly steals the show . Three tracks from weird but riveting jazz-meets-calypso bandleader Lionel Belasco are included ; the 70-year-old recordings are so original , they sound timeless . The same praise can be stated of film opener " Jaan Pehechaan Ho , " a Bollywood rarity that has elements of surf music , funk , and garage rock . Of course , we also have to hear " Graduation Rap " and Blueshammer 's " Pickin ' Cotton Blues , " two intentionally bad contemporary tracks that make the characters in the movie ( and anyone listening to this soundtrack ) feel out of place in today 's pop culture . Zwigoff wisely fills out the disc with tracks from his personal 78 record collection , a mix of ' 20s and ' 30s string band and blues tunes that are seldom found in compilations ( including great cuts by the Dallas String Band , Joe Calicott , and McGee Bros ) . The haunting " Theme from Ghost World , " composed by David Kitay , finishes off this disc , perfectly capturing all the bittersweet moods found in the film . Although gospel and disco music seem like polar opposites , one is secular while the other has embraced a hedonistic culture , the marriage of the two genres has birthed the uplifting spirituality and dance floor thump found in gospel disco . By the mid- ' 70s many established and independent gospel artists started creating records with a tight four-on-the-floor beat that touched both churchgoers as well as patrons of the drug-fueled establishments of the ' 70s . Cultures of Soul Records is proud to present the second installment of Greg Belson 's Divine Disco . Belson is one of the world 's leading authorities on the funky gospel sound ; for this collection he dug deep into his crates to undercover the rarest independent and private press gospel disco records ever recorded . Greg Belson 's Divine Disco sound is one that 's been heard around the world from his DJ appearances at Glastonbury 's NYC Donwlow stage to LA 's Funky Sole to soul nights across Europe . Many tracks are under the radar or recently discovered such as Harrison Jones - On that Other Shore , Converters , I 've Been Converted and the super limited self-released 45 by Mr Jesse R. McGuire -- Jesus Is On the Mainline . Only 50 copies were ever pressed . This volume even includes gospel disco from the UK with Paradise 's brilliant " Keep the Fire . " This compilation also includes remixes and edits by Steve Cobby ( who was a member of Fila Brazillia ) and the Divine Situation production duo of Greg Belson and Paulo Fulci . Tracks : A1 . Converters - I 've Been Converted A2 . Harrison Jones - On That Other Shore A3 . Wisdom - Change A4 . Johnson Family Gospel Singers -- Imitations B1 . Calvin B. Rhone - I Believe B2 .

Various - Texas Soul Texas Soul ' 68 LP This is the fifth LP in our highly regarded series on Afro-American music in the Lone Star state covering the year of 1968 . By now soul music is fully in the ascendant , with some of the tracks getting funkier and funkier - no Blues or R & B any more . So this album continues the tradition of mixing up big star artists with lesser known singers - plenty of uptempo dancers and a few delicious ballads for a change of pace . Definitely the best of Texas 1968 ! SIDE 1 1 . Grab Your Clothes ( And Get On Out ) - Minnie Epperson 2 . Today 's Man - Mark Putney 3 . Cold Cold World - Tommy Jackson 4 .

Various Artists The Wit & Wisdom of Donald Trump LP In the 1980 's Stiff Records produced a similar series for UK politicians . We thought it was high time to do one for Donald Trump .

Various Artists Disco Not Disco 3LP " " Strut Records were there first , well before DFA recorded The Rapture 's Sub Pop debut . ' Disco Not Disco ' preceded the punk funk revolution by two years . " Resident Advisor For Record Store Day 2019 , Strut present the first ever repress since 2000 of the influential first volume of ' Disco Not Disco ' compiled by Joey Negro and Sean P as part of the label 's 20th Anniversary . ' Disco Not Disco ' was a perfectly timed compilation back in 2000 . Released when interest in the myths , history and playlists of original New York clubs like Paradise Garage and The Loft was at its peak , the album drew on the outer limits of leftfield disco championed by Levan and Mancuso , bringing together unlikely dancefloor anthems by rock acts like Yoko Ono and Ian Dury , obscurities from cottage labels like BC and Splash and selected oddities from the unique mind of avant-garde hero , Arthur Russell . It was essentially a celebration of the sonic melting pot in New York during the early ' 80s , an era when punk had burnt itself out and disco had become commercial and saccharine ; in its place , the post-punk movement threw up brilliant oddities which tore up the accepted rulebook . Since its release , the compilation title has become a by-word for a whole genre of music and remains a landmark collection of its time . With original copies now changing hands for ? 100+ , this new pressing is a welcome return for an essential celebration of disco 's difficult cousins . The album features full original artwork and Kris Needs ' sleeve notes and is remastered and cut by The Carvery . " Various Artists Brazil Classics 3LP 30 year anniversary box seT of David byrne 's legendary brazil Classics series . This is one of the first compilations of pop music from Brazil , and one of the most important compilations of music from anywhere .

This genre defining metal trio started the whole genre of Black Metal and are arguably the most influential extreme metal band of all time . This single features the classic trio of Cronos , Mantas and Abaddon . Vivian Stanshall & Gargantuan Chums ( John Entwistle & Keith Moon ) Suspicion 7 " 7 " in transparent yellow vinyl . FLY RECORDS launched in October 1970 with T. Rex 's first 45 ' Ride A White Swan ' which gave Marc Bolan his biggest hit to date reaching #2 and closed the year with a mid-December 45 release by Vivian Stanshall - one of FLY 's rarest and bizarre 45s . As the frontman with The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band Vivian 's surreal comedic wit had attracted kinship with THE WHO 's manic drummer Keith Moon . When the Bonzos split up Vivian formed Big Grunt and with Moon in tow and recorded a single . ' Blind Date ' was rumoured to have been written for Matt Munro - nigh impossible to imagine . Moon brought along bass'n'brassist John Entwistle to the session possibly as an antidote to The WHO 's yearlong promotion of rock opera Tommy , backing Stanshall on a jovial romp through ' Suspicion ' . Embellished with a quintessential Stanshall middle eight it sounds closer to Presley clone Terry Stafford 's version than the King 's own relatively insipid version . Surprisingly radio friendly it was cursed with wholly inappropriate promotional tomfoolery and a ludicrous Christmas time release date which even Good King Wenceslas could not avert its trajectory into oblivion . An almost instant rarity it remains the only known recording by the Gargantuan Chums as well as Keith Moon 's only record production . Originally the 4th single release on Fly Records this premier re-issue is remastered and reissued exclusively for RSD2019 on trans-yellow vinyl , housed in a pic sleeve and limited to 500 copies . As Fly approaches 50 it is the first in a series of celebratory reissues . " Limited Numbered 7 " Die Cut Sleeve/ Printed Inner Sleeve Transparent Orange Vinyl Double A Side : The Shining/ A Clockwork Orange For both these iconic films , Stanley Kubrick chose to work with the extraordinary Wendy Carlos , who wrote ( or realised , as both are based on classical pieces ) the main themes to both movies . She was born in 1939 as Walter Carlos and graduated from Columbia University with a master 's degree in composition , where she had met Robert Moog , instigating a collaboration that would shape her musical career . Instrumental in developing the early synthesiser , Carlos enjoyed considerable commercial success with her first album Switched On Bach ( 1968 ) , which realised a selection of J.S. Bach 's music on the Moog modular synthesiser . This was no mean feat as it was not polyphonic , but despite that the album won her three Grammy Awards . The 7 " AA Side , March from A Clockwork Orange ( 1971 ) , is an arrangement of Beethoven 's rousing Symphony No. 9 in D Minor ( fourth movement ) and is the first recorded song using a vocoder . Almost ten years later , Carlos was to work with Kubrick again on The Shining ( 1980 ) . Although Kubrick did n't use much of the music she composed , sticking instead to the guide tracks for the final cut , the disturbing main theme is by Carlos and her collaborator and friend Rachel Elkind . The Shining -- Main Theme on the 7 " A side takes as its starting point the Dies Irae from Hector Berlioz 's Requiem ( Op5 ) , appropriately taken to new levels of darkness by Carlos and Elkind 's electronic treatment . " Wes Montgomery Back on Indiana Avenue : The Carroll DeCamp Recordings 2LP Back on Indiana Avenue : The Carroll DeCamp Recordings is a collection of previously-unissued recordings from jazz guitar legend Wes Montgomery captured live and in studio in his hometown of Indianapolis , Indiana in the mid-to-late 1950s by renowned arranger/pianist Carroll DeCamp ( Stan Kenton , Les Elgart ) , who played and hung out with Wes around that time .

Reasoning
×
The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'they' is the NP subject, 'laughed' is V1, 'boxing history' is the NP object, and 'being' is implied in the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also fits the prevention interpretation, as the action of laughing prevents 'them' from being in boxing history. The verb 'laughed' falls under the category of means to achieve a goal by arousing fear, irritation, anger, annoyance, confusion, or surprise. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

THERE 'S nothing worse than an undelivered pizza . You crave it , you order it , you wait patiently , the time expires , and you find out that someone , somewhere along the line , has f***ed up . So , you end up making yourself toast . It 's not that toast is bad , and it does a job , but no matter how much you dress it up or spin it , a piece of toast has never been , and will never be , a 12-inch , stuffed crust , meat feast . Anthony Joshua versus Jarrell ' Big Baby ' Miller at Madison Square Garden on June 1 is a piece of toast . Tyson Fury versus whoever he fights next is a piece of toast . It 's not clear , at this stage , if Deontay Wilder is going to eat . He probably will . And it will be a piece of toast . It is wildly annoying . It is positively infuriating . And if I could think @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ then , believe me , I would use it . News that Wilder-Fury II will not happen next is another undelivered ' promise ' from the deluge of managers , promoters and TV companies who , to differing levels , control the big three . And that list grows with every new deal struck , the latest being Fury 's with ESPN . With each new ' partner ' , another layer of self-interest and contractual complexity is added . I would run out of space listing the amount of vested interests , but the fighters themselves must also carry part of the can . You can trash-tweet as much as you like but your talk has once again proven to be cheaper than Easter Eggs will be on April 22 . I understand Joshua had to take a different turn , given that the other two seemed destined to meet again , but the all-round BS goes way back in what has been , barring one night last December , a phoney war . I would ask all three of them one simple question @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : Joshua will next fight in New York PICTURE : AFP The bottom line is that we likely wo n't see any of them fight each other this year and , if we do , it will interfere with your Christmas shopping . And that 's boxing . Not all the time but more often than not . The only individual sport in the world that can burn an entire calendar without the best of the best actually facing each other . It is not that there is not depth beyond the big three . It 's just that the real jeopardy , the biggest riches and , most importantly , the legacy is found inside this unholy trinity , which is why not a single one of them will take anything above a low-risk opponent between now and , eventually , the next time two of them meet . It is not a surprise but it is , nonetheless , a shame because , for first time in a long time , sports fans are actually buzzing about the big boys . We want to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fight the winner . Hell , we want to see him fight the loser . And whoever is odd man out can fight Oleksandr Usyk . Thankfully , it is still hard to imagine a world in which these fights will not eventually happen . The opposite is implausible on every level . Financially they have to happen . And if they did n't , they would be laughed out of boxing history . It is worth noting Joshua is only 29 and Fury 30 , so the clock can tick a little longer . Wilder , less so , but he is 33 and fresh . Still , it does n't make it any less unbearable that they have n't got their s*** together . AGAIN . Until they do , it 's toast all round . Come on guys . As boxing fans , we are starving . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It mentions 'pressured into opting out of Working Time Directive', which does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'opting out of' is followed by a noun phrase ('Working Time Directive'), not a VP[-ing] predicate.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes the pilot dropping out of training, which is a different construction involving 'dropped out of' followed by a noun phrase ('training for his commercial pilot's licence'). There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not yield a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate).

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('they tried to talk Trump out of invoking national emergency powers'). It involves an animate NP subject ('they') and an NP object ('Trump') that functions as a causee, inducing a prevention interpretation (they tried to prevent Trump from invoking national emergency powers). The verb 'talk' fits into the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot, specifically under 'By means of enticing, flattering, or verbal persuasion'.

WASHINGTON ( AP ) -- One by one , the Republican senators floated their ideas . They were trying to find a way out of a seemingly impossible dilemma : how to support President Donald Trump 's U.S.-Mexico border wall without approving the national emergency declaration he invoked to build it . And one by one , during a private lunchtime meeting that ran hot at times , they found no easy answers . As a deadline for voting looms , it 's increasingly clear that Republican senators are deeply uncomfortable with Trump 's use of executive power to build the wall and desperate to devise a way around the vote . Senators know whatever they decide will make history . It 's the first time Congress is voting to terminate a national emergency .

Senate Republicans do n't have the votes to stop what Trump is doing , nor do they necessarily want to . Many of their constituents want the wall , and senators , especially those up for re-election in 2020 , do n't want to run afoul of the president whose supporters they 'll need .

Reasoning

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'got the most enjoyment out of creating' involves a transitive verb 'got' with an NP object 'the most enjoyment', but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the subject's experience of enjoyment from an activity, which does not align with the semantic requirements of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Just for a moment , Billy Leighton has been transported back more than four decades to his early years in Irish whiskey , working as a junior accountant at Bushmills . Whiskey had never been a big thing in the family home -- ' maybe a special occasion , or a hot whiskey if you 'd a cold ' -- but something about his new workplace was puzzling him . ' There were a lot of smells coming from the plant -- the brewing , the fermentation -- that I was familiar with , and I could n't figure out why , ' he recalls . ' I thought : " Is it a bakery ? Where do I know that smell from ? " ' All of a sudden it hit me that Bushmills had a sister distillery , the Coleraine distillery , that was operational until 1978 , and I was living in Coleraine at that time . So the smells I was getting at Bushmills were smells I would have smelled in Coleraine without even realising it . ' Apart from illustrating the powerful links between smell and memory , it 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Irish whiskey . ' We had a warehouse adjacent to the distillery in Coleraine which we had whisky in for quite a few years after the distillery closed , but where the warehouse was there 's now an abandoned petrol filling station , ' Leighton says ruefully . ' Where the distillery itself was , there 's a few retail units in there , and actually I 'm down there most Saturday mornings , buying treats for my little dog from the pet supplies shop . ' Irish whiskey sales have grown continuously for almost three decades now , spearheaded by Jameson , which sits at more than seven million nine-litre cases -- bigger than any Scotch brand , bar Johnnie Walker . Distilleries are opening all over the country , and an industry that was on life support when Leighton joined it is now thriving . History lesson : Leighton remains mindful of Irish whiskey 's long heritage ' I think the proliferation in Ireland is a good thing , ' he says . ' What we have to be mindful of is that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ high quality standard for the Irish category , and that the new entrants can maintain that high standard . ' In that spirit , Irish Distillers ' Midleton distillery now offers a mentoring scheme to whiskey start-ups . ' We 're not Big Brother , ' Leighton insists . ' We 're not telling you how to make your whiskey -- that would be a sad thing , if everyone was making the same whiskey -- but we have experience , and we can offer advice in certain aspects , things to look out for . ' With more players come more styles of Irish whiskey , and bigger questions about identity . Does Irish whiskey need to cling on to a clear and distinctive character -- or explore greater diversity ? Leighton thinks for a moment . ' You can do both , ' he says . ' I think you can retain the style -- if you want , generalising , triple-distilled , no peat , all the things that we see as traditionally Irish -- but I suppose it was inevitable that the time @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more players in the category , and those new players were going to want to make their own mark -- so it opened the doors for a bit more lateral thinking . ' And can you learn from these newcomers ? ' Absolutely , and the more new thinking that comes into the Irish whiskey business , the better it is , not only for business in general , but for the Irish whiskey consumer as well . ' Essential character : Single pot still is the ' DNA ' of Jameson , Leighton believes However golden the present and future , the ghosts of Irish whiskey 's darker past still lurk , particularly here . We 're speaking at Jameson Distillery Bow St in Dublin , now a tourist attraction but , back in the dark days of the 1970s , another casualty of the production cull of the time -- one in a series of multiple amputations deemed necessary to keep Irish whiskey alive . ' John 's Lane distillery would have closed in 1976 or thereabouts ; Jameson was round about ' 74 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ era , and now they 're all springing up again , ' says Leighton . ' If it had n't been for the amalgamation of Irish Distillers in ' 66 and how things have progressed since then , probably we would n't be sitting here today talking about 29 consecutive years of growth in the Irish whiskey category . It does n't really bear thinking about . ' It 's unlikely that distillation will return to Bow Street any time soon -- ' Back in 1780 , Dublin was a different place -- you 've got to think about the logistics of your grain deliveries , your barrel deliveries ' -- but at least one aspect of whiskey-making has come home . Jameson Bow Street 18 Years Cask Strength is a blend of grain and pot still whiskeys produced at Midleton , then recasked into first-fill ex-Bourbon for a final year 's ageing in a maturation room at Bow Street . ' It was an inspired idea , because not only did it add to the visitor experience , but it gave us that opportunity to bring @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ' says Leighton . ' People might be sceptical and say : " You 're just warehousing it in a different place , " but the different place is a very special place for me , and when you listen to Carol archivist Carol Quinn talking about the history of what happened in Bow Street 230-240 years ago , it just makes you feel like you 're continuing what the Jameson family were doing back from day one -- so there is that kind of emotional aspect . And it 's not Midleton , you know ? I do feel that there is a different interaction happening in the warehouse here . ' The only widely available cask-strength Jameson bottling , Bow Street is priced at ? 240 -- a venture into the luxury end of the market for the increasingly sprawling Jameson family . With so many diverse expressions now available -- Black Barrel , Caskmates , Deconstructed , Makers -- what is Jameson 's essential identity ? ' A blended whiskey which contains Midleton pot still whiskey -- and I think it 's that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ right across the Jameson range , ' says Leighton . ' It 's all very approachable , smooth and appealing to a very wide cross-section of whisky consumers . ' Maintaining that identity while exploring an ever broader palette of flavours is the challenge with Jameson . Other products that are part of Leighton 's brief , however , allow for more latitude . ' The style of Midleton Very Rare allows for maybe a little bit more variation in flavour profile from year to year . It remains in the Midleton style , but we kind of allow ourselves a little bit more flexibility in the final presentation -- and I think that 's what people are looking for , because you do see social media debates on " what was your favourite year for Midleton Very Rare ? " . ' Great fun ' : Leighton got the most enjoyment out of creating Redbreast Dream Cask ' I think the one that I have absolutely had most enjoyment out of is the Redbreast Dream Cask , which was great fun to do . It @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whenever the Redbreast Dream Cask got out to those people that were lucky enough to get a sample , the feedback came back saying : " You must bottle this . " ' Eventually we did , and that was fantastic . The reaction wherever we launched it was that it sold out in about four-and-a-half hours -- 816 bottles at ? 500 and a 500ml bottle too . ' Like the broader historical sweep of Irish whiskey , the story of Redbreast is one of survival . ' It 's one of those ones that really stood the test of time , ' says Leighton . ' Between Redbreast and Green Spot , I think they kept single pot still Irish whiskey alive through the darkest of times . ' I did a Redbreast event in Tokyo last April ; it was the official launch of Redbreast in Japan , and it was Redbreast 12 , Redbreast 15 and Redbreast 21 . ' We did a few bartender sessions , and the questions were : " Well , where 's the 12-year-old Cask Strength ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about it , and that 's what I love -- the word has spread . ' He contrasts this with an encounter with an older demographic at The Telegraph Whisky Experience in London last December . ' That was interesting because the afternoon sessions were a certain sort of generation of people that had some spare time on their hands , and lot of them were told to go over there and try that Redbreast stuff -- and they had n't heard of it . ' That was great , because the single pot still category for me is still in its infancy . There 's still such a long way for us to go . ' |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'ruled themselves out of childcaring' involves a reflexive pronoun and a noun ('childcaring') rather than a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not clearly induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the construction.

Researchers at the University of Birmingham have found out how poor policy communication and societal expectations of parents ' roles are contributing to low take-up of shared parental leave ( SPL ) which is available for fathers . Research completed by Dr Holly Birkett and Dr Sarah Forbes ( Co-leads of the Equal Parenting project ) at the University of Birmingham is the most comprehensive academic research ever undertaken to examine why eligible parents do not to use their statutory entitlement to SPL in the first year after the birth or adoption of their child . Shared Parental Leave ( SPL ) is a policy aimed at improving gender equality in the workplace by providing parents the opportunity to share caring duties within the first year after birth or adoption . Many parents in the United Kingdom are eligible to take SPL , but most still do not take it . SPL is an important tool for tackling the gender pay gap which we know is partly down to the motherhood penalty women face after having/adopting their first child and taking maternity leave . Increased uptake of SPL and involvement of fathers in caring in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ child development , child/father bonding , paternal welfare and parental mental health . By driving uptake of SPL , fathers can experience the multiple rewards of being actively involved in caring for their child in the first year and support their partners to return to work should they wish to do so . By undertaking extensive qualitative research with parents that were eligible to take SPL as well as ineligible parents , Forbes and Birkett have unveiled the complex nature of how different barriers affect different groups of parents . Notably , they found that a significant lack of knowledge exists regarding the policy and that , where parents were aware of the policy the communication was viewed as overly complex . Additionally , they found that societal expectations that mothers will be the primary caregivers are still strong and encourage parents to take on gendered roles in the home after the birth or adoption making them less likely to consider SPL . Organisations were also identified as playing an important role in driving the uptake of SPL . Workplace culture was identified as extremely influential in preventing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ away to care for their child could impact their career . Also , many employees outlined financial considerations as particularly influential in the decision not to take SPL , especially where shared parental pay was at a statutory level and not enhanced by the organisation in the same way maternity leave often is . The study concluded significant barriers to the uptake of SPL exist which need to be broken down , notably : organisational , cultural , communication , financial and policy barriers , while gatekeeping behaviours were also influential . Dr Sarah Forbes said : " The benefits of using this policy are vast . To hear fathers who have used it talk about developing a stronger bond with their child , wanting to be more involved in the day-to-day activities of raising their child as well as feel their relationship with their partner has strengthened as a result of using SPL just shows what a difference using this policy can make . " Dr Holly Birkett said : " The research demonstrates that parents often do not realise that they are eligible for SPL @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that they can use SPL in ways which are not available through traditional Maternity , Paternity and Adoption Policies . Interviewees in our sample used SPL in a variety of ways , such as , to extend paternity leave , support their partner in the first few months , go travelling round Europe for 6 months as a family , to move through periods working and at home dependent on the needs of their family and career through the use of blocks of leave and to facilitate mothers returning to work towards the end of the first year without the baby having to go to nursery at under 1 year old " . Dr Sarah Forbes said " Our study shows how certain barriers are inhibiting gender equality in the workplace and it is important that future efforts by organisations and citizens alike address and overcome these barriers . " Dr Holly Birkett said : " Our research highlights that professional couples are most likely to take SPL , particularly where the mother earns more or the father 's company enhances Shared Parental Pay . " This @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and is available online . A policy brief produced by the Equal Parenting project outlines the key findings of the research and recommendations for organisations and government . The research is part of a larger study currently being undertaken as part of the Equal Parenting project at the Birmingham Business School . The project involves multiple streams of work to understand and help the UK break down barriers to equal parenting and give all parents the opportunity to be actively involved in caring for their children . For more information or interviews , please contact : Hasan Salim Patel , Communications Manager ( Arts , Law and Social Sciences ) on +44 ( 0 ) 121 415 8134 or contact the press office out of hours on +44 ( 0 ) 7789 921 165 They key findings of the study are : Organisational level barriers -- there was a significant lack of knowledge of the policy from Human Resource Managers ( HR ) and line managers in the workplace . In addition , workplace culture often negatively affected @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that the mother will be the primary carer ( based on duration of leave and amount of pay ) , and the suggestion that the father may take SPL is met with surprise and , in some cases , criticism from their own work colleagues . Maternal and paternal gatekeeping -- one parent 's views on their role often led to behaviours which affected the involvement of the other parent . Generally , this involved mothers drawing on maternal identities of a ' good mother ' , and other policies , such as those around breastfeeding , to dominate the childrearing duties and , at times , exclude fathers . However , there were also examples of positive maternal gatekeeping , where mothers actively encouraged father 's involvement , and paternal gatekeeping , where fathers actively ruled themselves out of childcaring by drawing on traditional normative paternal identities . Policy barriers -- the real or perceived complexity of SPL , as well as the limitations of the policy itself . Furthermore , the eligibility criteria excludes self-employed and some agency workers . In addition , due to a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mothers must gift fathers their leave so fathers can take SPL , the policy itself currently encourages maternal gatekeeping . Communication barriers -- there is a general lack of communication , particularly from employing organisations about the policy 's workings and benefits . What communications there are often appear overly complicated , or are not timely enough . In addition , communications unrelated to the policy often inhibit take-up , for example , messages around the importance of breastfeeding . The research also demonstrates that different groups are likely to experience SPL in different ways . Three key factors signified how people experienced these barriers and how likely they were to use SPL . These were : socio-economic background and job role , education and information seeking skills and ethnicity . Dual-earning couples with professional roles , or those where mothers earned more , or were more ambitious , than fathers , were more likely to know about SPL and more likely to use it . Based on these findings the following recommendations could help organisations and Government significantly increase take-up of SPL . Evaluate , and where appropriate address , the workplace culture and subcultures surrounding the uptake of childcare duties by fathers . Improve the promotion of SPL and ensure information is available early . Target mothers with communications first and use relatable individuals in promotions . Consider the use of parenting groups , peer mentoring and workplace champions . Evaluate return-to-work procedures and support for mothers , as well as fathers , after leave , including how breastfeeding is supported in the workplace for returning mothers . Review the Equality Act ( 2010 ) and look to include paternity characteristics to ensure fathers are protected from discrimination in the workplace . Any policy change needs to place the child at the centre of the policy . SPL eligibility criteria should be expanded to include self-employed parents . Look at removing the maternal transfer mechanism and offering both parents more leave which is not transferable . A coordinated effort by Government Departments is needed to support the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ between the Department of Business , Energy and Industrial Strategy and Department of Health and Social Care is needed on the subject of breastfeeding and SPL to ensure that both policies are mutually supportive and not in conflict .

Warren Gatland was announced as Lions head coach in 2016 in Edinburgh , but named just two Scots in it a year later When the final whistle sounds at Murrayfield on Saturday , win , lose or draw , the entire home crowd will get to their feet and riotously applaud the great Warren Gatland on what will be his last visit to Edinburgh as Wales coach . Once the appreciative cries of " Wazza ! Wazza ! " ring around the ground there is an expectation that Gatland will leave his position in the west stand and make his way down to the pitch where he will drink in the applause of the many thousands of Scots who understand what an outstanding operator he has been for Wales and the Lions . He 'll wave and smile and clap , then he 'll say something like : " I 've always had a special bond with these fans . The Scots ? A cracking bunch of lads . " There 'll be unicorns as well . And flying pigs . The abominable snowman will dance with Lord Lucan while Shergar gallops merrily in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Premiership and European titles with Wasps , his two Grand Slams with Wales , his Lions series win in Australia and his Lions series draw in New Zealand , Gatland is one of the coaching giants of this or any other rugby era . This talk of his place in the history of the game was posited on Twitter a little while back and in most corners there was debate as to who might be considered the greatest rugby coach of them all - Jim Telfer , Ian McGeechan , Carwyn James , Steve Hansen , Jacques Fouroux , Fred Allen and many more got mentioned - but in Scotland there was a collective ridicule about Gatland even being in the same conversational postcode as the others . Scottish rugby 's relationship with the Kiwi is a thorny one . In rugby circles here , the very mention of his name can evoke a fairly bitter response . With 10 wins from his 10 Tests against Scotland and a try-count of 32-10 in Wales ' favour he is Scotland 's bogey man @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has won more Tests against Scotland than Gatland . Is that part of the reason why there is a certain coolness about the man north of the border ? A small part . The giant reason is , of course , Gatland 's selections in his two stints as Lions coach and , in particular , his uncompromising view of the Tartan contenders ahead of the 2017 tour to New Zealand . Scotland beat Ireland and ( Rob Howley 's ) Wales that year and yet when Gatland named his final squad there were 12 Welshmen , 11 Irishmen and just two Scots . The backlash was vicious . " Gatland does not have a good track record in liking people from Scotland , " said Ian McLauchlan , the former president of the SRU and the old warhorse of the storied Lions tour of New Zealand of 1971 . McLauchlan , speaking in an official SRU capacity , went for the jugular . " He Gatland does n't come here , does he ? He does n't know the names of the Scottish players ... he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ story what I feel about Gatland . If I told you I 'd go to jail . " The Mouse had n't roared as loudly since going to war with Jazz Muller in all points north and south in ' 71 . And he led the response . A quick look at a Scottish rugby messageboard from the day Gatland equalled the all-time record for the lowest number of Scottish Lions and then tried to explain his rationale was instructive . " Verbal tripe . " " Complete bias . " " Utter drivel . " " Deliberate arrogance . " There were seven mentions of disgrace , eight unbelievables , one guy simply called the whole thing " mince " , another was succinct in saying , " Ram it , Gatland " . In post after post there was an unmistakeable feeling of injustice and talk of Lions jerseys being swapped for All Blacks jerseys as a form of protest . " Why does n't Gatland just come out and admit that he hates Scotland , " wrote one character while simultaneously attempting to douse the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ flames in Twickenham The bottom line is that in his two successful stints as Lions coach Gatland has given game-time to 87 players and only nine of them have been Scots . He has n't sugar-coated the reasons why . In 2017 he said that Scotland 's home wins against Ireland and Wales were impressive but since the Lions were n't playing at home he wanted to see what these Scots were like away from home , in somebody else 's backyard when the heat was at its most intense . He did n't see what he wanted to see at Twickenham when Scotland went down in flames and he did n't see it at Saracens when Glasgow were routed in the quarter-final of the Champions Cup . There was a sense that he was n't overly disappointed that the Scots players had given him a way out of picking them . He made his calls , took the flak and against all odds the Lions drew a series that they were half-expected to lose 3-0 . Gatland was vindicated in 2017 just as he was vindicated @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ first Lions tour to Australia . And he was vindicated again in 2018 when Scotland went to Cardiff for the opening round of the Six Nations . The Scots were buzzing on the back of some terrific performances . Wales were depleted . Revenge was in the air . No George North , no Liam Williams , no Jonathan Davies , no Dan Biggar , no Rhys Webb , no Sam Warburton , no Taulupe Faletau . They were missing eight Lions and seven Test Lions - and they still won in a landslide . A 27-point win was even more than Gatland imagined . He displayed a little too much glee in rubbing salt in the Scottish wound later on when he said he 'd predicted his team would win by 20 points . He said he told his chief executive , Martyn Phillips , that " We 'll batter them " . Media playback is not supported on this device Six Nations : Scotland ' like Wales pre-Gatland ' - Gwyn Jones @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Maybe it was unnecessary , but he was right . Scotland had been put under pressure to win on the road and they fell in a heap under the burden . As one Scottish player said at the time : " We 'd love to shove his words down his throat , but we 've got nothing . We just have to sit and take it . " Without wanting to play amateur psychologist , there might be a deep-set layer of admiration for Gatland among Scotland fans , an appreciation that the guy is a cold-blooded , canny , stop-at-nothing winner . In other words , the kind of unyielding character that Scotland could have been doing with . Maybe , underneath it all , he 's the type of operator they crave , a coach who took over a struggling team and instilled a bloody-minded belligerence that gave them relevance , respect and trophies . It might be buried , but if there is a grudging admiration for him then no wonder . So , if Gatland 's crew make it 11 from 11 against @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ third Grand Slam on his watch - the same number Scotland have managed in their entire history - let 's hear it for a rugby behemoth . No takers ? OK. |

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: 'NP subject (certain children) + V1 (priced) + NP object (certain children) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (learning musical instruments)'. It also induces a prevention interpretation, where the action of pricing out prevents certain children from learning musical instruments. The verb 'priced' can be categorized under 'By means of exerting force or pressure, sometimes understood metaphorically'. The NP object 'certain children' functions as a causee who is prevented from participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'learning musical instruments'. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

New data from the British Phonographic Industry suggests a growing disparity between the music opportunities offered in state and private schools . 08 March , 2019 00:01 The lack of music provision in state schools risks depriving the industry of future talents such as Adele and Stormzy , the Brit Awards boss has said . New data from the British Phonographic Industry ( BPI ) suggests there is a growing disparity between the music opportunities offered in state and independent schools . According to the research from the UK record labels association , schools in poorer areas deliver fewer chances for their students to participate in music . But the figures suggest almost all independent schools and state-funded schools serving more affluent communities give students the opportunity to take part in a school musical or in a play featuring songs . In a survey of 2,200 teachers across both sectors in England , 21% said they saw a decrease in music provision over the past five years . Private schools have seen a net increase of 7% @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one in eight of the most deprived schools have an orchestra , compared with 85% of independent schools . According to the survey , 64% of schools serving disadvantaged communities give students a chance to take part in a school musical or musical play , compared with 91% of the most affluent state schools and 96% of independent schools . Geoff Taylor , chief executive of the BPI and the Brit Awards , said : " People may have different talents and aspirations , but the one thing that gives us all an equal opportunity to fulfil our potential , whatever our background , is education . " These BPI findings make us profoundly concerned that music education and tuition in state schools is beginning to lag far behind that in the independent sector . " This inequality is not just deeply unfair to children in the state sector , it risks depriving our culture of future talents as diverse as Adele , Stormzy and Sheku Kanneh-Mason . Adele attended the state-funded BRIT School ( Yui Mok/PA ) " We believe that every child @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tuition and to discover and develop their musical talent . " It is clear that Government needs to inject additional funding for musical instrument tuition in state schools and to recognise music as a core component of a child 's education , one which should be reflected in Ofsted 's judgment of a school 's performance . " We warmly welcome the proposed new model music curriculum for schools , but it is vital that Government ensures that the curriculum also works for the many non-music teachers that take music lessons in primary schools . " In response to the survey findings , the BPI is calling on the Government to intervene to reverse the " worrying trend of reduced music provision and curriculum time in schools " , providing funding where necessary . In a number of proposed measures , it asks ministers to address the disparities in access to musical instrument lessons by boosting funding . The BPI is also calling for music to be recognised as a core component in education and made a clear requirement in the accountability framework . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , said : " This data further backs up the research that we commissioned at the end of last year . " Both demonstrate that young people from poorer backgrounds are missing out on the chance to learn an instrument . " With certain children priced out of learning musical instruments , we may well only be hearing the songs and sounds of the affluent in years to come . " Those from poorer backgrounds will , unfairly , be increasingly under-represented within the industry . " This summer , a new model music curriculum created by an independent panel of experts will be published . It will provide schools with a sequenced and structured template curriculum for Key Stages 1 , 2 and 3 . A Department for Education spokeswoman said : " We want all pupils to have the opportunity to study music at school . " We will be working with music groups and practitioners to refresh the national plan for music education . " We have already started work to develop a high-quality model music curriculum , which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ programmes receive more money than any subject other than PE -- nearly half a billion pounds to fund a range of music and cultural programmes between 2016 and 2020 . " This money is in addition to the funding that schools receive to deliver the curriculum . " -- The survey polled teachers in state-funded and independent schools across the primary and secondary sectors via the Teacher Tapp survey app . Post-stratification weights were applied to ensure the survey reflects the population of teachers in England in terms of gender , age , role seniority , region , school phase and school sector . |

A demon struts before an audience with their their heads in stocks , flailing a figure who is being scalded by a line of fire . Skeleton hands rub a bouquet of blooms as if drawing energy from their poxed petals . A double-headed chicken fights itself , and a creature that is half muskrat , half panda gets high sniffing blue and red tassels . In the tortured and hallucinatory world of Hyon Gyon , art is principally a reaction to the deadening , male-dominated society of hyper-commercialised South Korea ; the purpose of her baroque grotesqueries is to reveal and purge these evils . She considers the process of creating her art a kind of exorcism , a purgative performance . On display in her first solo public show in Europe are mixed media paintings and sculptures created during trance-like states which connect her with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ perspective of the Western canon , the trances she enters connect her to ( and allow her to act out ) unconscious desires and urges ; from a specifically Korean perspective , she is associating herself with the tradition of female shamans ( or mudang -- typically they perform healing ministries and are considered low class ) . By immersing herself in a universalised spiritual state she is able to bring to light the uglinesses perpetrated within Korean society while also purging herself of its excrescences . She considers the eventual pieces cleansing -- though the exhibition , which spans two floors , is a m ? l ? e of horror , as compelling as it is inventive , as detailed up close as it is from afar . Step back from the brutal miniatures and the forms are subsumed into larger shapes : a kaleidoscope-eyed acid totem with scored horns ; a demon born from a bed of ornate flames bleeding sick rainbows and composed of discarded soft toys ; a pink-faced genie escaping a diamant ? skull only to to face abacination by a door-mouthed succubus @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ military to the domestic -- ornate war swords , overly-long fingernails , knitting needles , axes , fish hooks , arrows , pins and scissors -- impale what might be heads . Gouts of hair abound , trailing like evil cirrus across the canvases , threatening to overwhelm their subjects and spill out past the canvas . Violence is perpetuated at all levels , forcing itself upon the viewer -- the vast and granular creep of horrifying cruelty alike demanding ever-closer scrutiny . Prosaically , this means pieces can look pretty from afar but on closer inspection resolve into nightmarish visions . It 's all aggressive , it all invites further scrutiny . We Were Ugly ( 2017 ) is a mixed media mural of vertical panels which runs along an entire wall of the first room . From far , textures glitter , glint and shimmer . Bright waves of colour dash themselves across the panels as if stirred by some tremendous generative energy . Jaunty pinks , yellows and greens abound round swollen fleshy masses , but the mural is a reflection on war , upheaval and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bombs dropped on Japan -- and the sickness of these events metastasises across its length , gradually taking up space with its growling , garish horror . Skulls strew the bottom third , surrounded by flowers nourished by the rotting bodies ; glitter seasons their gritted canines . Slick black stalactites drip over caverns burned into the panels ' styrofoam innards . Daubs of oil paint shaft sharp points out of grated scores of ripped fabric like diseased alveoli . A flock of over-painted eyes made of gold-gauzed fabric flit across the centre . All seems hopeless -- they look into you , but their pupils are empty , punched holes . This burgeoning pictorial brutality is more shocking than her sculptures . The Last Man ( 2017 ) and Hello Another Me ( 2011 ) are composed of everyday objects ( tights , kitchen gloves , stuffed toys , socks and fake flowers ) strapped into fevered forms that transfix the everyday and lurch it into psychosis . Domestic environments and the realm of childhood provide rich material for dehumanising and unjust exertion of power . But while @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and torturers , nearly all are to some extent both . At each level , vicious manipulation is rampant . The swollen penis of The Last Man is tipped by a sore red plush bear , but the body itself -- constructed of mundane newspapers over a chicken wire cage -- is stripped and skeletal , covered with fungal cancers clumping parasitically along its calves , back and buttocks ; one hangs like a goitre from a jowl . The figure looks like it should be in pain , but it merely occupies space , confronting us . It does n't allure and challenge , it does n't pose questions . Another sculpture in a side room , Nobody cares about your misery ( 2018 ) exploits this ambivalence more fully . Gold dollar signs glare out of gaping eye-sockets , a chipped , noseless face of parched wood opens into a mouthy void populated with craggy , three dimensional molars . The painted hands of a dummy reach up to it in fake supplication and the plinth is steadied by a double rainbow of arched pigtails , jerry-rigged @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and rags indicate the disposable nature of human wants and desires and their overwhelming tyranny , the impossibility of generating a wholly news , untainted being . Upstairs are mosaics and pieces of sgraffito ( blocks of stone on which the design has been viciously scratched away ) . Mottos abound -- and are not without humour : ' Shut the fuck up ' , ' Life is shit and then you die ' , ' Kill ' and ' Liar ' are written with fabric paint on boxing gloves growing off of a snakily coiled sausage rag tree ( A Chain of Struggles ( 2018 ) ) . The Battlefield ( 2018 ) quotes Corinthians ( " suppose the ear said ' I am not an eye I do not belong to the body ' " ) and riffs on paternal cruelty and the terrible inevitability of procreation against the backdrop of the crucifixion and multi-generational trauma : " You are of your father , " intones a foetal crouched creature in a speech bubble , its loony scribbled face both haunting and absurd . In Hyon Gyon @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ movements give way to acts of atrocity . Glitz draws viewers in , like consumerist dummies , and the style and rendering dictate viewers ' threshold for horror . The lingering question is whether , if she is purging these awful aspects of the invisible world , they reveal to their viewers the shape of hidden things or become just another passed-on atrocity to be purged . Does the ' truth ' that they speak transcend the horror they depict and are ? According to Hyon Gyon , these pieces are ways of escaping the pain of being ; but as a viewer whether this is the case is less clear . Dear Beloved ( 2018 ) is a bust of shattered tiles with crude lipstick-red features burlesquing a face slathered on . Behind the bust 's neck , delicate wax hands overlay each other , climbing the spine and supporting the neck . It 's almost tender -- but for the top one which , spider-like , climbs the skull a little higher like a lopped panic attack . What appears sweet can always morph and each tile @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . And while pain can be purged , life is -- for the moment at least -- inescapable . If you love our features , news and reviews , please support what we do with a one-off or regular donation .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'opt out of receiving them' involves an NP ('receiving them') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', but it does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate with a causee.

The UK 's data protection watchdog today raided two businesses suspected of making millions of nuisance calls . The Information Commissioner 's Office has been investigating the companies , based in Brighton and Birmingham , for a year after receiving roughly 600 complaints about them . The calls -- said to involve road traffic accidents , personal injury claims and household insurance -- did not identify the firms or allow people to opt out of receiving them . This is a breach of direct marketing rules , the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations ( PECR ) , so the ICO today sent in enforcement officers to seize computer equipment and documents for analysis . " Today 's searches will fire a clear warning shot to business owners who operate outside the law by making nuisance marketing calls to people who have no wish to receive them , " said Andy Curry , head of the anti-nuisance call team .

Well , Colton Underwood probably is n't a virgin anymore , but he 's also not engaged . He is happy though , even if the road was a little rough .

If you 've recently picked up the brand-new Samsung Galaxy S10 then you 've come to the right place . Here we 've rounded some of the best tips , tricks and secret features to get you started . We 've now reviewed all of Samsung 's latest trio of flagship phones and if you 've just picked one up you 're in for a treat . These are easily some of the best Android phones you can buy in 2019 with exciting features like an in-display fingerprint scanner , three rear cameras and reverse wireless charging . It also happens to have loads of extra-special features that are not immediately obvious . So before you get settled in with your new phone , take a look at these tips and tricks . The ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanner is one of the Samsung Galaxy S10 and S10 Plus ' headline features . It takes the traditional fingerprint scanner and buries it under the display . If you 're more of a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . You can even have both fingerprint and face unlock enabled at the same time , which gives you the best of both worlds . To set face unlock up head into Settings >Biometrics and security then tap Face recognition . You 'll then have to twist your head around a few times while the front cameras scan your face . As this method purely uses the front camera , rather than a bevy of sensors like the iPhone XS , you ca n't use face unlock to unlock banking apps and make Google Play payments . When your first boot-up your Galaxy S10 or Galaxy S10 Plus your screen resolution will be set to FHD ( 2280 x 1080 ) , which might seem odd as the actual resolution available here is WQHD+ ( 3040 x 1440 ) . Samsung likely does this to stretch the battery life further , but it seems a shame to waste all those pixels . It 's easy enough to switch though , just head into Settings > Display > Screen @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Speaking of the display , for some odd reason Samsung defaults you to just be able to fit four rows of the potential five icons on your home screen , giving them all an oversized feel . Again , this is easy to remedy and you 'll be able to make much better use of the screen by tweaking it . Long press on the home screen , tap home screen settings and then alter the home screen grid to either 5 ? 5 or 5 ? 6 . This lets you cram more icons in and makes them smaller in the process . The Huawei Mate 20 Pro might win the prize for the first phone that can wirelessly charge another phone , but it 's still nice to see the feature come to the S10 series . By utilising Samsung 's Wireless Powershare feature you can use the S10 's battery and Qi support to juice up other devices which support Qi . For example , you can place @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tap the Wireless Powershare box in the drop-down panel and the other phone will start charging . To be honest this is a very slow process and you 'll get a lot more use out of charging smaller devices . If you bagged a pair of Galaxy Buds as a pre-order incentive for the S10 then you can juice these up with Wireless Powershare . You 'll also be able to do the same with the upcoming Galaxy Watch Active . If you 've ever used the Galaxy S9 or Galaxy S8 then you 'll be familiar with the Bixby button . Sitting just below the volume rocker , this erroneous key opens up Samsung 's virtual assistant with a quick , often accidental , press . There 's a strong likelihood that you , like us , will want disable Bixby as soon as you turn on the Galaxy S10 and thankfully you can now tweak how the button works . First off you 'll need to make sure you are signed in with a Samsung account , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Bixby panel . Tap the three-buttoned options menu on the right and then tap Settings . Scroll down to Bixby key and you 'll be taken to a new page . Here you can ensure Bixby is only summoned with a double press of the key , or alter the app opened when the key is pressed . Note that you 'll always have to have Bixby assigned to either a single or double press , but you can open a third-party app now with the button . You still ca n't set it to open Google Assistant though . Cheeky Samsung . While we were n't blown away by the battery life on the Galaxy S10 Plus , there are plenty of ways to improve a phone 's endurance . Here are a couple of the easy ways to make the cell last longer Alter screen resolution : Toggle the resolution down to HD+ by the same method as in Tip 1 . Ensure Screen Enhancer is off : Screen Enhancer boosts brightness and adds an HDR effect to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ double the rate as when it 's off . To make sure it is n't on when you do n't want it to be , head into Settings > Advanced Features and toggle the Video Enhancer switch . Battery saver modes : There 's a couple of built-in battery saver modes baked into the S10 's software that tweak settings such as performance and screen resolution . To enable one of these open Settings > Device Care > Battery and then Power Mode . Both the S10 and S10 Plus have three cameras on the back , while the S10e has two . One of the new features for this years model , aside from the extra sensors , is a Super steady video mode for adding some extra stabilisation to footage . This is some of the smoothest video stabilisation we 've seen on any phone and it manages the effect by cropping into the ultrawide 16-megapixel camera . The result it judder-free video that looks likes you 've shot it with a proper gimbal . To turn it on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and tap the square icon right in the middle . |

And with 2019 widely considered its last hurrah , support of the hardware has begun to dwindle . What better way to say goodbye , then , than with the re-release of a beloved Wii title featuring one of Nintendo 's most recognizable mascots . Kirby 's Epic Yarn is the 10th installment in the series , the first since Kirby 's Air Ride , and was doing the wool schtick well before Yoshi wrapped his long dinosaur licker around it . This is a lovely little platformer with its warm , vibrant , color palette , neat , clean user interface , and distinct aesthetic . Each character is made out of string , comprised of coloured outlines as opposed to being filled , and as you might expect from the cute bundle of joy , is a 2D side-scrolling platformer . But as far as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ end . The core mechanic of the flappy pink ghost absorbing his enemies to assume their power is gone . Lost . Forgotten about entirely . In its place , Kirby uses a Yarn Whip to unravel his enemies , roll them up and casually throw them around the place . Kirby can also turn into a car to get around faster , propel into a parachute to sail between platforms and even a heavy weight to break through underground . Kirby can also claim hats from his enemies which offer up unique abilities , such as a helmet which equips him with a sword , or a pair of knitting needles to turn enemies into a ball . It 's a lovely little touch that keeps things fresh as you move between worlds and almost certainly served as some form of inspiration for Kirby Star Allies . As you progress through levels , you can also turn into different vehicles using a Metamortex -- whether it 's an Off-Roader with thick tire tracks , a Flying Saucer with pew pew lasers or an indestructable Tankbot . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you blast through enemies and collect as many beads as possible . Kirby 's Extra Epic Yarn is incredibly fulfilling in terms of the overall level structure , the varying environments and diversity of play . There 's a lot of content here , between the new hard devilish mode , and the Mini Games -- Dedede Gogogo , and Slash and Bead with Metaknight -- as well as the amount of treasures to find . Treasures which can then be used to decorate Kirby 's flat . In chests located in the levels , you can build up your living quarters Animal Crossing style and even spend on new items with the beads collected in levels . The Extra version has even added double the amount of furniture items from the original , so that 's more table , chairs , and fireplace decor than ever before ! This is one of the game 's real sweet spots , as far as I 'm concerned . Platformers usually take you from one level to the next so you can beat a boss and move onto the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ move in for a chat -- sometimes offering time challenges so you can get nice little bonuses like music -- but you can also customise your homespace however you like and it just gives you a consistent anchor as you move between its sprawling worlds . Epic Yarn is all pretty easy , though . You ca n't die during the levels -- though you will keep losing stuff -- and none of the levels are especially challenging . Puzzles often require you to hook onto things with your yarn whip and enemies are beaten fairly easily . Its the game 's charm which definitely carries the game throughout . And despite all the extras , one major omission is , unfortunately , the lack of two player co-op . It 's trickier to pull off on handheld , so it does make sense , but it 's obviously a massive part of the original game lost in translation . And seeing it work so well in Star Allies , it 's quite sad to lose it altogether . Also , amazingly , Nintendo have chosen not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Yarn . It joins a growing list of games in the 3DS ' library 's later years which disappointingly do n't offer it , like Hey Pikmin , and Pokemon Sun & Moon . The effect would have been quite stunning for this particular aesthetic , honestly , so it 's a bit disappointing , though not altogether surprising . Ultimately , though , the 3DS version is by far superior to the Wii counterpart , and still offers enough new content that it 's worth a double dip . With all the new abilities , extras , as well as the Amiibo support , it 's a fantastic little port which manages to work wonderfully on 3DS and is a typically wonderful Nintendo platformer which really takes the Kirby franchise in fascinating new directions . If Kirby 's Extra Epic Yarn is the last major Nintendo release for 3DS , it 's a proper nod of the head and pat on the back to -- arguably -- their finest handheld system . This is a true classic Nintendo platformer in every sense of the word . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Review code kindly provided by Publisher . Sam grew up with a PS2 , spending hours howling at the moon in Okami and giving students wedgies in Bully . Fortunately , she also likes Pokemon because otherwise life could have been quite annoying for her . |

By now , everyone should be familiar with the sad story of Equifax 's 2017 data breach . The credit-checking agency was rocked by scandal last year when it was discovered that a flaw the Apache Struts framework allowed hackers to gain access to its systems and make off with a trove of more than 145 million people 's personal information . This breach was notable in its size , but what really made it stand out was the quality of the data hackers managed to harvest . In addition to full names , dates of birth and addresses , some victims also had drivers ' license numbers , credit card information and social security numbers stolen . The breach caused international outcry , sparked the resignation of a number of key executives , spurred a number of lawsuits against the company , and prompted a large scale investigation by the US government . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ three major failings : a sprawling and disjointed IT infrastructure , a slapdash approach to patch management , and ineffective communication between and within departments . Equifax had long operated without a coherent corporate policy for governing the application of security patches , something that was actually addressed in 2015 by Susan Mauldin , the company 's then-CSO . In preparation of her new security policy , a company-wide audit was conducted , the shocking results of which were detailed in the Senate report . It found that a staggering 8,500-plus patches were overdue to be applied to both internal and external-facing systems . Of these , almost 90% were designed to address critical or high-severity vulnerabilities . Three-quarters of the external vulnerabilities were more than three months old , and 7% had been known about for more than a year . The audit also revealed that patch and configuration controls were inadequate to deliver regular and timely updates , and that the company 's IT team was also not proactively patching systems when updates became available , waiting instead to receive specific instruction from Equifax 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It transpires that the five groups within Equifax responsible for patch management operated on an ' honour system ' . In practice , this meant that when the GTVM team became aware of a vulnerability , they would scan for its presence on Equifax 's network . If any instances were detected , the relevant team would be notified and requested to apply a patch . If no instances were detected , no patch would be applied . However , even in those cases where a patch was mandated by the GTVM team , there were no efforts to track whether those patches had been successfully applied . Equifax 's former Countermeasures Manager was quoted as saying to Senate Commitee : " This is not an advisable approach to patching " . A February 2017 proposal , dubbed the ' Green Belt project ' , aimed to improve patch management . It was never officially implemented , but the security analyst behind it also observed that while the process of scanning for vulnerabilities was done on a global scale , the actual application of patches was managed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ according to Webb , was because the underlying infrastructure was not consistent across Equifax 's global offices . He said that this discrepancy was " not important " . The 2015 audit that revealed these alarming shortcomings also made a number of key recommendations , one of which was the implementation of automated tools to manage the configuration and deployment of patches , as well as a centralised system to track their successful application . It also recommended that patches were applied proactively as soon as they became available , and that high-risk and business-critical systems were given greater priority . These recommendations were made in October 2015 , and in the 18 months between then and the eventual breach in May 2017 , not one of the recommendations had been fully implemented . What is perhaps most damning of all is that the audit found Equifax did not have a complete overview of its IT infrastructure . Recommendations that Equifax should " ensure a current and accurate accounting of all IT assets is available at all times " , also appear to have been largely ignored @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not available by March 2017 ( and efforts to conduct one are still ongoing ) . It was this lack of an inventory that would prove to be the company 's undoing . When a critical flaw was discovered in the Apache Struts framework on 8 March 2017 , Equifax 's GTVM team quickly issued an email the next day to more than 400 employees urging them to patch it immediately , pointing out its high severity and that it was currently being exploited . The team also scanned for the vulnerability repeatedly . An employee in Spain did contact the security team to check that the two versions of Struts his team were using were not vulnerable to the exploit , and while they were subject to numerous years-old unpatched vulnerabilities , they were immune to the flaw in question . One application that was vulnerable , however , was Equifax 's online dispute portal , a critical customer-facing system . Earlier calls by the Green Belt Project for more sophisticated scanning tools had largely been ignored , and as a result @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the issue further was that , because of a lack of company records , the GTVM team was unaware that the online portal was using a vulnerable version of Struts - likewise the lead developer on the portal team was unaware that his particular version was vulnerable . Some of the blame for the eventual intrusion could potentially be laid at the feet of this one developer - after all , there 's an argument to be made that one should keep up to date with the security statuses of the systems you use and maintain - but the greater failing is that of Equifax 's corporate culture . " What we 've got here is a failure to communicate " , to quote the Captain from Cool Hand Luke . The GTVM 's email alert regarding the vulnerability was sent out to more than 400 people , but this lead developer was not one of them - likely because Equifax 's incomplete records did not include him as an application owner . His senior manager , however , did receive the alert but failed to pass @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The flaw was mentioned in two of the monthly vulnerability meetings run by the GTVM team ( which the aforementioned senior manager would have seen ) , but attendance to these meetings was optional , including for security managers or application owners , and there were no reliable records of who actually attended . What we do know is that " the CSO , the Senior Vice President of Product Security , the Vice President of the CTC , the Director of GTVM , and the Manager of Countermeasures did not regularly attend the monthly GTVM meetings " , according to the Senate report , and that the CSO " never " learned of the security warnings issued by US-CERT . By this point , the damage had been done ; once they had access to the dispute portal , there were no security controls in place to stop the hackers from laterally traversing the network until they discovered databases containing the personal data of hundreds of millions of Equifax 's customers . The credentials they used to access these databases were stored on an internal file shared @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ managers responsible for safeguarding this information have argued that they did everything in their power to keep hackers at bay prior to the breach , and fend them off during it . The SVP of product security has said that he did n't see anything wrong with the company 's security policies both during and prior to the breach , and the former countermeasures manager said that he did not think his team could have done anything differently . The former vice president of its Cyber Threat Center also told the Senate subcommittee that one of the reasons Equifax struggled to maintain an accurate list of its IT assets was that it was difficult and time-consuming to integrate the tech stacks of the numerous companies snapped up by Equifax as part of its growth strategy . Equifax 's new CEO Mark Begor has jumped to the company 's defence as well , assuring the Senate Subcommittee that the company did , in fact , take security seriously . " The fact that Equifax did not have an impenetrable information security program and suffered a breach does not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " he said . " Before the cyberattack , I understand that the the company 's security program was well-funded and staffed , based on a robust set of policies , standards , and procedures , and supported by general and specialized training . " While the attacker that hit Equifax may have been sophisticated , the fact is that they need n't have been . The Senate report confirms that " the tools to exploit the March 2017 Apache Struts vulnerability were publicly available and easy to use , " and the further actions the hackers took to access sensitive data once on the network were not especially complex by cybercrime standards . Furthermore , the actions of Equifax 's security teams both before and after the breach betray either inadvertent or willful ignorance of security best practices . Recommendations from the 2015 audit were never implemented , nor was a follow-up audit conducted . Perhaps most damningly , the company waited six weeks after it learned of the breach - which affected more than 145 million people - to notify the public . In total @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ than three and a half months before the public had any idea . It was during this delay that the former CIO of Equifax , Jun Ying , sold almost $1 million in company shares . He has subsequently plead guilty to insider trading . Based on this report , Equifax 's IT organisation appears to have fallen victim to the classic case of overly-cumbersome bureaucracy obfuscating a company 's data and processes . Equifax had five different teams responsible for patch management and a system in which the successful application of critical fixes was taken on faith . Vital security updates were viewed by the CIO as a " lower level responsibility that was six levels down " from him , and top security staff neglected to attend meetings about potentially existential cyber threats . Equifax 's approach to security provides a reasonably complete example of what not to do , but there were three particular failings that proved to be fatal for the company . Overly complex IT structure One of the main reasons that Equifax @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ its IT organisation was vast and sprawling , with a large number of siloed departments that each had separate but adjacent responsibilities . Reducing the complexity of your IT organisation ensures that communication is easier , and simplifies the allocation of vital tasks like patching . For example , DevSecOps models work on the basis of integrating multiple functions into a single team , allowing that one team to successfully support an application over its entire lifecycle . This particular model may not be right for everyone , but consolidating your IT teams is a must for any business that wants to maintain adequate visibility of its IT . Lack of regular audits Equifax was arguably brought down due to poor visibility ; the Apache flaw was left unpatched because incomplete lists of IT assets hid the vulnerability from the security team . If the company had invested in regularly auditing its IT estate , the security department could have patched it earlier , potentially avoiding the breach . Not only does keeping an up-to-date catalogue of everything in your tech stack allow you to accurately @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' - when businesses end up footing licensing bills for software that they 're not even using . Inefficient patch management Patches are obviously a crucial part of cyber security , but actually applying them can be tedious , time-consuming and disruptive to the business . That 's possibly why Equifax chose to patch its systems reactively rather than proactively , and why it had numerous different groups responsible for it . Using an automated patch management tool can greatly speed up the application of important fixes and take the headache out of validating them . In addition , it prevents IT from having to reactively apply patches , improving the company 's overall security by automatically deploying them with minimal human interaction . |

As the weather starts to show the first hints of thawing and we can see a tease of spring on the horizon it 's only natural to start plotting holidays . Given the seemingly endless summer last year , we dare to dream of a repeat performance , making staycations within our own beautiful isle all the more appealing . And where more enthralling than Devon , the county aptly coined the English Riviera due to its chic harbour towns and stunning coastline . With so much to see and a surprising amount of ground to cover , we recommend a dual site stay to ensure you make the most of your time . First stop : experience glamping at its finest in North Devon with Longlands It 's not surprising that Longlands have been the winners of numerous boutique glamping awards . Tucked away in an area of outstanding beauty this a glamping experience like no other . The site is made up of five safari style tents , each of which sleeps six people ( and two dogs if you are so inclined ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ expect from a chic country hotel . The perfect battered chesterfield in front of the roaring wood fire , sumptuous natural aromatherapy products in the bathroom and cosy White Company bedding in the bedrooms . Though hardcore camping traditionalists need not fear - there are just enough activities to give you the hint of camping which I know many enjoy , the satisfying task of fire making being one of them . It seems it 's only the undesirable aspects of traditional camping have been ejected from this new improved model . Gone are the mad dashes and queues for the bathroom block , for example . Instead you can relax in your own private bathroom complete with shower within the privacy of your tent . Country chic interiors at Longlands , Devon . Take time to enjoy the fresh air and explore the beauty of the area . There is a picturesque lake on site complete with rowing boats , however should you be like me the hot tub is my water destination of choice . Make a booking for you and your party at sundown and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ set on the sea and over the valley . A hot tub with a view Longlands is the perfect base ( if you can tear yourself away ) to explore the beautiful coastline . Culture vultures be sure to make a special pit stop to visit Ilfracombe to see Damien Hirst 's striking and forboding ' Verity ' statue . It would be unfair to deny yourself a visit to the seemingly endless sandy plains of neighbouring Woolacombe beach , voted Best British Beach and deservedly so for the last two years on Tripadviser . Not to mention a chip shop dinner for true nostalgia . Another favourite spot of mine was the honesty shop , known as ' The Larder ' , full of fresh local and homemade produce and open 24 hours a day , perfect for a midnight feast .

Due to its uniqueness and high end finish , it is unsurprising that availability can be tricky , but exclusive hire is available and would allow for a truly unforgettable experience whatever the occasion . Now you just need to find an excuse ! Unplug and unwind the old fashion way at Longlands this summer . It 's worth noting that although your stay at Longlands is all about the unwinding , there is a power socket included in each tent , but I implore you to step away from your phone and truly disconnect . Maybe do n't tell the rest of your guests about its existence ? Just a suggestion . For those suffering from Candy Crush withdrawal why not have a rummage through the games trunk , we reignited the age old love ( and horrific competitiveness ) of Monopoly during our stay .

Angie Scott always starts her day by sitting down with a quiet cup of tea . But that 's where the similarities between her and most other British pensioners end . The 66-year-old has her early morning cuppa in the wilderness of Kenya 's Maasai Mara in the open air as the distant sounds of roaring lions roll across the savannah . She then follows the animals ' calls , driving for miles with her husband Jonathan , 70 , to get up close with the majestic beasts they know individually like they would their own children . The couple , who live in a tiny thatched one-bedroomed cottage in the middle of the reserve , say they are " living their dream " every day - despite admitting to having a few scary moments with the deadly animals they share their home with . A lion and his cub from the Marsh Pride in the Maasai Mara ( Image : Animal Planet ) The zoologists and wildlife photographers have been documenting the lives of the Maasai Mara 's lions , leopards and cheetahs for over 40 years . And now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wildlife series , Big Cat Tales , shown on the Animal Planet channel this Sunday , allowing us all to get to know their favourite animals , many of which are endangered and dangerously dwindling . The incredible images of lions and their cubs which have enchanted viewers since their first hit series , Big Cat Diary , is a result of their decades forging a mutual relationship with the animals through daily encounters in their natural habitat . The couple go out in different safari vehicles , Jonathan in a Land Cruiser and Angie in a Land Rover which has been " customised for ladies " and for her long days out in the wilderness , complete even with a fridge and yoga mat . The Scotts leave their home early to get close to the animals ( Image : Animal Planet ) They have followed the lion prides for decades ( Image : Animal Planet ) Describing her typical day , Angie told Mirror Online : " I wake up at around 4.30am . I lie in bed listening to the sounds , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ get out soon . " At first light or just before I 'll sit out on the plains and have a cup of tea and just listen . " Then by the time we 've worked out which cat we 're going to find , we take our cars and go . " Then we 're out all day , until nightfall . We spend hours with them , taking photos , getting close and trying to create the best images we can . " Our cars become our homes . " But although the couple have seen the prides grow up and have names for each individual , Jonathan says they would never try to get any closer to the animals , like another couple famous for their friendship with big cats , Born Free 's Joy and George Adamson . The couple have built up a relationship of trust with the lions ( Image : Animal Planet ) Jonathan says : " We always stay in the cars . The lions are actually frightened of people if they see you on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ vehicles that behave nicely with them , and we are always very careful in our approach , very calm . You put out a good energy and they 'll come around . " There 's one beautiful picture of Angie in her vehicle , with all of the Marsh Pride who have come to lay in the shadow of her car . That 's how relaxed they are . " It 's not because they know you as friends and if you come out you can have a cuddle with us . " It 's that they sense they do n't mean you any harm and they do n't need to worry about you . " Angie in her specially-adapted safari vehicle ( Image : Animal Planet ) A pride lazing in the shade of her car ( Image : Animal Planet ) While their tactics mean they have never felt unsafe around the lions , they have had some close calls with other savannah animals - with their most scary moment coming just a few days ago . Johnathan says : " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ our car . " Normally they are chilled , but he had been doing a lot of pushing and shoving of other males , and he could n't figure out why our car would n't move like they had . " He came over and took one extra step towards the car , doing everything to try to make us move . I think he thought he was going to have to shove us . " He decided to stand tall and put his trunk up , and at one point his tusks were virtually coming through the side of the car . Just a little jab forward and his tusk would have gone straight through Angie 's chest . " In the end I said in a very imposing voice ' no ' and he took one step backwards which allowed me to gently turn the car on . " But it was a spine-tingling moment and a wake up call that whatever we might think , danger is always close by . " The moment leopards attack a wilderbeast ( Image : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( Image : Animal Planet ) And he remembered another heart-stopping moment , when the pair had picked a " quiet spot " to get out of their cars and have a rest . He said : " We turned round and to our horror we saw there was a hippo coming back to the river , right on track and very close to us . " Hippos weigh two to three tonnes and have very large teeth and can do a lot of damage . " The scariest thing that has ever happened to them was not in Africa at all , but on a sub-Antarctic island where the couple were filming hooker sea lions . Jonathan said : " We just thought the sea lion would just walk past us , but this one started chasing us . " Angie managed to tear a disk in her back . I saw him going flying towards her . " The sea lion actually got beneath the surface of the vegetation as it chased her , and I saw the vegetation just rippling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . It was like a scene from the Lord of the Rings . " A rare sight of a leopard , one of Africa 's endangered animals ( Image : Animal Planet ) The Scotts have committed their lives to raising awareness of Africa 's endangered species since they both found themselves in Kenya in the 1970s . As well as their popular TV series , between them they have also written numerous bestselling books including Jonathan 's ' The Marsh Lions ' and their co-authored ' Antarctica : Exploring a Fragile Eden ' and ' Stars of Big Cat Diary . They are also the only couple to have won , individually , the Wildlife Photographer of the Year Award . But none of that would have happened if Jonathan , fresh out of studying zoology at university , had not decided to go on a round the world trip , taking a four-month , ? 500 truck journey from London to Johannesburg in 1972 . He intended from there to take a boat to Australia , but after passing through east Africa @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Scotts are able to get closer than anyone else to the animals ( Image : Animal Planet ) He said : " I wanted to have my round-the-world adventure . I never bought into the idea that I was going to have a career and pension , then do what I really wanted to do when I was 60 . I wanted to do it now . " By the late 80s he had already had several books published , and met Angie , who was running a chain of shops for a travel company in Kenya , when she rang him looking to buy a copy of one of his books . Angie , whose father was a cotton buyer , was born in Egypt and brought up in Tanzania . Jonathan said : " When I heard her voice I thought , ' what a gorgeous voice ' .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not give rise to either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of emerging markets' is a prepositional phrase modifying 'stampede', not a VP[-ing] predicate.

LONDON ( Reuters ) - Collapsing asset price volatility has turned ' carry trading ' into one of investors ' top plays of 2019 . Many reckon the run is far from over . This strategy sees investors borrow in currencies where interest rates are low to invest in countries where yields are high , such as in emerging markets . Investors can pocket the difference , or ' carry ' . For the trade to work liquidity needs to be plentiful , the global economic backdrop benign and , importantly , currency volatility next to nothing . Broadly , all those conditions seem to be in place . Volatility , or vol , had been crushed this year by central banks ' decisions to hit the pause button on interest rate rises . Societe Generale analyst Kit Juckes says markets ' " outright boredom " so far in 2019 has been the perfect recipe for carry trade success - FX volatility is near multi-year lows . As a result , carry trading has returned 5.5 percent in 2019 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ follows a fall of 1.4 percent in 2018 , when rising U.S. interest rates caused a stampede out of emerging markets , the favoured place to earn carry . The current environment for carry is " textbook " , says Andreas Koenig , head of foreign exchange at Amundi Asset Management . SELL AND BUY Koenig has been betting on the Turkish lira and Brazilian real , both of which offer yields well into the double digits . Investors buying 10-year Russian government bonds can earn yields of 8.5 percent , or 8 percent in Mexico . Those returns have been further burnished by currency appreciation -- some emerging currencies such as the rouble have firmed as much as six percent against the dollar and euro . On the other hand , the Japanese yen , Swiss franc and euro tend to be carry traders ' funding currencies of choice , as their low yields make them attractive to sell . Yields in Switzerland on the benchmark bond return -0.35 percent ; in Germany barely 0.07 percent . But the euro has been particularly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ policy tightening plans in the bloc . But can the good times last ? Analysts say the carry trade is here for a while , or at least as long as rates remain low and economic data is strong , but not so strong it forces a central bank rethink . BNP Paribas predicts near-term growth in major economies will be " not too cold , but certainly not hot . " The tepid economic outlook means we are positive on long carry and short volatility trades , " the bank 's economists wrote last week . POOR PERFORMANCES As history shows , the hunt for carry is not without risks . Should U.S. growth deteriorate , international trade conflicts escalate or the end of the decade-long bull run crystallise , the resulting volatility spike can send " safe " currencies such as the yen , euro and Swiss franc shooting higher , while inflicting losses on riskier emerging markets . But even in a good carry environment , some high-yield trades may not work . For instance , MSCI 's emerging @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ year 's 3.8 percent drop , but the gains mask individual poor performances . Robin Brooks , economist at the Institute for International Finance , notes that since the Federal Reserve 's surprise policy U-turn in January , high-yielders such as South Africa 's rand and Turkey 's lira have actually weakened . Asian currencies including India 's rupee and the Malaysian Ringgit have gained - a " puzzle " Brooks attributes to expectations of a U.S.-China trade deal rather than investors responding to the Fed 's dovish shift . Investors have also loaded up their carry trade positions already : speculators are $2.3 billion net long in Mexico 's peso against the U.S. dollar , against a neutral stance in January , according to CFTC positioning data . Amundi 's Koenig said that following the strong recovery in high-yielding currencies in 2019 " the risk is not only in terms of volatility but in underlying levels . " Carry from here is not my favourite strategy , " he said . " In a late-cycle stage , it 's not very likely that it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

The recriminations played out by Rangers and Kilmarnock over their draw on Saturday did n't end with the managers of both clubs having their say on a tousy affair . It was carried on by Gary Dicker in startling fashion , the Kilmarnock captain accusing officials of once more betraying the fact that they bottle out of making big decisions against the Ibrox club on their own patch in expressing incredulity that Steven Gerrard 's men kept 11 players on the pitch . The Rangers manager may have spent much of his post-match address -- during which he acknowledged the hapless defending that allowed Conor McAleny to claim an early lead for Kilmarnock that a second-half Alfredo Morelos strike cancelled out -- complaining about the level of aggression exhibited by Steve Clarke 's men . However , Dicker was in no doubt that the team that deserved to have real gripes about events on an afternoon which has left Rangers trailing Celtic by ten points in a now non-existent title race was his own . Dicker , making oblique reference to the Scottish Cup tie at Ibrox last month when his club were denied @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a red card that was later rescinded before losing 5-0 , was incensed by what he saw as shirking by referee Greg Aitken following two incidents . The first came when Kirk Broadfoot had words with Morelos as the pair left the field at half-time . He seemed to click the Colombian 's heel with his foot -- probably intentionally -- which led to the Rangers forward spinning round and striking the defender in the face with his hands . Aitken took no action over the incident . The second came in stoppage time when Connor Goldson halved Liam Millar , in utterly brutal fashion , as the Kilmarnock substitute motored past him and into the box . After consulting via his earpiece , Aitken decided this transgression warranted only a yellow card . Gerrard accepted his defender may have been lucky to escape a red , but that Goldson probably thought he could get away with such a crude lunge after Clarke 's men were " lucky five or six times " over what he considered was their unacceptable approach in making " a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ took to social media yesterday to mock Gerrard 's complaints , suggested the handling of the Morelos and Goldson transgressions were beyond the pale . " That 's a red card all day long at the end with Goldson , " said the 32-year-old Dubliner . " Liam is clean through and he is going to commit someone else and shoot . " We will see what happens because if it happens the other way around it 's a red card for Killie -- end of . It takes a bit of bottle sometimes to make those decisions -- but it 's a dangerous tackle anyway . " So it does n't matter if he is clean through . It 's just more of a red card when you are clean through . " A covering defender the ref said of giving yellow . I do n't know , at the end of the day it 's reckless , it 's out of control and he 's not going for the ball . " I 'm sure the ref knows the rules of the game @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you to be honest . I 'm not a ref but it 's a red card . " I spoke to all of them about the Morelos incident and they have n't seen it . The linesman said ' I just went back down the tunnel ' . ? " I think they should n't come off the pitch until the players are off . Listen , everyone has got an answer . " People make mistakes but the fourth official , four of them there . Someone has to see something . Even with the one at the end . Just make a decision -- you are there . ? " I know it 's away at Ibrox -- but it 's frustrating . But it just shows that keep 11 men here unlike the cup and it 's a different story . I 'm not sure what happened at half-time , I only saw him Morelos swinging an arm at Broaders . " It 's the same old story is n't it ? No one sees anything here . It 's just frustrating and , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ get bored of talking about it . ? " It never seems to go our way sadly . We are happy with the way we played . We probably should have taken the three points . " Another three-point haul slipping beyond Rangers ' grasp despite dominating possession and territory betrayed the weakness that is threatening Gerrard 's first campaign with being consumed by ignominy . Strong-arm tactics by Kilmarnock are not the reason for that . |

FUKUOKA , Japan ( Reuters ) - Japan 's ultra-loose monetary policy is making it tough for commercial banks to earn profits out of lending , a problem that can not be fixed through bank mergers , the influential chairman of a major regional bank in southern Japan said . FILE PHOTO : A security guard walks past in front of the Bank of Japan headquarters in Tokyo , Japan January 23 , 2019 . REUTERS/Issei Kato Isao Kubota , chairman of Nishi-Nippon City Bank and once a finance ministry colleague of Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda , praised the BOJ chief 's massive stimulus program for correcting a damaging yen spike and revitalizing the economy . But Kubota said the length of the stimulus program is causing some problems , including hurting financial institutions ' profits for years due to low interest rates . Extraordinary monetary steps , such as Kuroda 's massive asset-buying program and negative interest rates , could be useful and effective as " short-term , emergency " measures , Kubota told Reuters on Monday . " But the longer the policy continues , the worse the side @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the sixth year of this policy and , I think intuitively , the accumulation of the side-effects might be enormous . " Many Japanese regional banks are grappling with diminishing returns from traditional lending as years of ultra-low rates hurt their bottom line and a dwindling population triggers an exodus of companies to bigger cities . While Japan 's banking lobbies have complained about the pain from the BOJ 's policies , financial regulators have urged regional banks to cut costs and find new ways to make money . Some BOJ officials have said mergers could be among options for regional banks to beat a deteriorating business environment . But Kubota argued that simply prodding regional banks to merge wo n't solve a bigger problem created by the BOJ 's yield curve control ( YCC ) policy , which caps long-term rates at zero . " Regardless of whether ( the BOJ ) intends to do so or not , they are squeezing the profits of commercial banks , " Kubota said of YCC 's impact on bank profits . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this kind of phenomenon is never resolved through , for example , mergers of banks . By nature , because of this policy , banks as a whole are made unprofitable . " Under YCC , the BOJ now pledges to guide short-term rates at minus 0.1 percent and the 10-year bond yield around zero percent . The policy has made it tough for banks to profit from traditional business of borrowing short-term funds and lending them at higher yields . " We want an early stoppage to this kind of policy . That we can say . But we ca n't say what the authorities should do , " Kubota said , when asked whether commercial banks would be better off if the BOJ abandoned negative rates . " They have powers , authorities . They also have responsibilities for the outcome of their policy . " Despite the mounting challenges to achieving 2 percent inflation , Kuroda wo n't abandon his target , said Kubota , who thinks he sees the governor 's way of thinking " very well " as former colleagues . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ students dispatched from Japan 's Ministry of Finance . " He 's confident and he 's a good politician , " Kubota said of the BOJ governor . " Even if he thinks something is dubious , he would never say so , so long as there is a need for the policy . " |

If you 've heard Conan , you 're undoubtedly aware that the UK " caveman battle doom " trio are pretty goddamn brutal . They 've clubbed audiences in half the world over the head with distorted resonance , amassing an almost cult fandom over the 13 years of their existence , and their latest album , Existential Void Guardian , is yet another triumph . But the record is is a departure from the straight mythology of records like Horseback Battle Hammer , Blood Eagle , and Revengeance -- this one seems to tackle the very real beasts that plague people in everyday life , from depression to dealing with existential dread . " Initially , the idea was to just try and write music that was a tiny bit more personal while still keeping it cool , " frontman Jon Davis says . " I did n't want to be introspective in any obvious way , but I wanted to use the analogy of something that actually protects that part of one 's self , to create that imagery of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of mind or stops one from allowing themselves to get into that certain frame of mind -- that being a sense of emptiness or a total absence of happiness . " That desire for mental protection , for something positive to fill that abyss of anguish , is something Jon knows all too much about . He 's dealt with an overwhelming sense of dread since he was a child that started with a combination of worrying about death and zombies ( " It 's like , what a stupid thing to be scared of . They do n't even exist , " he acknowledges ) and eventually amassed its way into an encompassing trepidation of existence . While it affected him differently in the past , his ability to transform that negativity into something enjoyable for the listener is something he 's proud of . That does n't erase the experiential ruminating that got him to this point . " I was thinking about what we were before we were born -- that complete absence of self , and not existing kind of scared me , " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ existentialism by any means , but it 's this loose idea where you just feel a complete sense of loss and emptiness inside . I thought it 'd be cool to make that an actual place , rather than just a state of mind that in any idea coming of having a guardian to protect you or stop people from leaving that place . " Jon has never been secretive about his feelings regarding this , though his openness to it came after a hard hit . The loss of his grandmother when he was younger is what he says really sent him into a paranoid spiral , where he began to worry that he 'd pass away of a sudden heart attack the same way she did , despite his lack of health problems . After crippling worry that at times made it difficult for him to live his day-to-day life and even manifested itself into psyching himself out on the presence of actual physical pain , music became the creative crutch he needed . " If I was n't involved in music , I do n't think @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I did , " he says . " I would n't say I 'm a talented musician by any means , but I do get a lot of satisfaction out of writing music and putting songs together . " That was a foundation for the inception of Conan , though Jon has been writing music since he was about 11 years old . The first song he ever wrote was about being chased into a forest by a local homeless man that everyone in the neighborhood knew -- and if you replace that real-life man with Tolkein-esque trolls and medieval battles , that seems pretty similar to what he writes about today . Existential Void Guardian speaks to some of those feelings -- particularly the opening track Prosper On The Path , which is about suicide , more specifically having that type of control over some element of one 's life and how often people choose the path that leads out . Davis in no way condones suicide , but that subject matter ended up taking hold during the writing process . " It 's probably the song on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The rest of the album is like regular Conan lyrics about swords and sorcery and all that nerd stuff , " he says . Jon says his existential questioning and paranoia have largely been solved , though , and much of that is thanks to his kids , the band , and working in the music industry in myriad other ways . " I 've got children now , so my main focus is making sure they have a cool life and showing them a different way of living than just doing a 9 -- 5 , " he says . " I feel like my mission is to show them how to enjoy life and not be scared of dying because everyone is . " A general busy nature , outside of caring for his children , is one of the main things that got him out of his slump . He 's always had a few irons in the fire , now running his music management business , Blackskull Services , his record label Black Bow Records , and his solo project Ungraven . " I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ active , so just being in the band would n't be enough for me , " he says . Specifically , staying busy within the field you must love and enjoy . Jon used to work in Human Resources , where he grew to dread the slog to his office every day to be bossed around by someone else . While he knows it 's not immediately possible for everyone to just up and solely work in their desired realm , he thinks just keeping busy with related hobbies will work wonders in combating those existential terrors . " Throwing your mind into something that really engages you and takes up a lot of your energy is something that helped me a lot and I would recommend that to anybody , " he says . " The contrast between how I once felt and how I feel now , is very large . " |

FILE PHOTO : A sign board of Bank of Japan is displayed at the headquarters in Tokyo , Japan January 23 , 2019 . REUTERS/Issei Kato/File Photo By Leika Kihara TOKYO ( Reuters ) - Bank of Japan policymakers disagreed on how quickly the central bank should ramp up monetary stimulus , minutes of their January rate review showed on Wednesday , as heightening overseas risks threatened to derail the country 's fragile economic recovery . While most members agreed it was appropriate to maintain the BOJ 's current stimulus programme , one of them said the central bank must stress its readiness to take " quick , flexible and bold " action including additional easing , the minutes showed . " Given the timing of achieving the price target had been delayed , it was undesirable to adopt a stance of not taking action until a serious crisis occurred , " the member was quoted as saying in the minutes . Another member , however , said acting too hastily during times of uncertainty could lead to financial imbalances @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Some in the nine-member board also warned that an increasing number of regional banks could be taking excessive risks to secure profits as years of ultra-low interest rates hurt their bottom line , the minutes showed . " We need to look carefully at whether regional banks are lending in a way where they are earning returns that meet the risks , " one of the members said . The BOJ kept monetary settings unchanged at the January meeting , pledging to guide short-term rates at minus 0.1 percent and 10-year bond yields around zero under a policy dubbed yield curve control ( YCC ) . YCC IMPACT UNDER DOUBT The BOJ faces a dilemma . Years of heavy money printing for asset purchases have dried up market liquidity and hurt commercial banks ' profits , stoking concern over the rising risks of prolonged easing . And yet , subdued inflation has left the BOJ well behind other major central banks in dialling back crisis-mode policies , leaving it with little ammunition to battle the next recession . In an interview with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of a major regional bank , said the BOJ 's ultra-loose policy is making it tough for commercial banks to earn profits out of lending . " We are in the sixth year of this policy and , I think intuitively , the accumulation of the side-effects might be enormous , " Kubota said . With weakening global demand hurting Japan 's export-reliant economy , the board debated the effectiveness of the current programme in lifing prices . One member said the BOJ 's YCC policy has had only a limited impact in boosting prices and inflation expectations . " This member said further analysis and consideration were needed on the relationships between inflation and the levels of interest rates or monetary base , " according to the minutes . A few policymakers saw room for more policy coordination with the government if overseas risks deal a severe blow to Japan 's economy , the minutes showed . While the minutes do not identify the name of the board members who made the comments , BOJ 's Goushi Kataoka has publicly said stronger fiscal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ economic slowdown . Deputy Governor Masazumi Wakatabe is also considered by markets as among reflationist-minded members of the BOJ board . Many in the BOJ are clinging to hopes that Japan 's economy will emerge from the current soft patch in the second half of this year . But if conditions continue to deteriorate , the BOJ could face pressure to offer additional monetary support , analysts say . Yet , BOJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda has ruled out the chance of additional monetary easing over the near term . A well-known fiscal hawk , he also warned against the idea that government can spend recklessly to pull the economy out of the doldrums . |

A man has pleaded guilty in America to a single felony count for his role in a $3m tech support scam operation . Bishap Mittal , 24 , of Charlotte , North Carolina , copped to one count of conspiracy to access a protected computer in a federal district court in the west of the US state . A sentencing date has yet to be set . Earlier this month , Mittal was charged regarding his role in the running of Capstone Technologies , a US-based company that , through a call center in New Delhi , India , ran a highly lucrative tech support scam . According to prosecutors ' filings PDF , Mittal and an unnamed coconspirator ran the business side of the operation , including handling bank accounts and setting up aliases for the organzation . The scam itself involved the use of pop-up messages on webpages or in adware to scare victims into calling a support number . " Pop-up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ support scam , " Department of Justice lawyers stated on Wednesday . " The fake pop-ups would suddenly appear on victims ' computers freezing their screens , prompting victims to contact Capstone Technologies at a number shown on the pop-up ad .

While a seemingly bog-standard scummy support scam , the operation netted its owners seven figures in ill-gotten gains . The DoJ noted that many of the victims were elderly people , who would be pressured into spending anywhere from $200 to $2,400 at a time on crap they did n't need .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'out of blocking' is part of a description of actions (special thrust, slash, and grab attacks) and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the NP object 'you' does not function as a causee in the event described by 'blocking'.

A brutal , uncompromising action game with sensational sword combat . From Software has done it again . What is it ? A challenging third-person action game about a shinobi on a quest for revenge.Expect to pay ? 50/$60Developer From SoftwarePublisher ActivisionReviewed on GTX 970 , i7-8700 , 16GB RAM , 512GB SSDMultiplayer NoneLinkOfficial site The enemy samurai fires a bolt from his enormous bow . I tap the parry button and slice the arrow out of the air . I know the shot is just cover for a sliding charging slash with his blade . It 's two quick strikes , but I 'm expecting it . I tap the block button twice to deflect both with a loud ringing sound and a flash of sparks . A glowing red symbol tells me that an unblockable attack is coming , an attack that has killed me three or four times before . The samurai lunges forwards with a thrusting stab . I press B at the last second and -- this never @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and brings it harmlessly to the ground . My counter is rewarded by a loud boom noise . If this was an ordinary enemy I would press the right bumper and thrust my katana into their exposed neck for a brutal kill , foot still pressed down on their useless weapon . The boss just staggers back , resets his stance , and the battle resumes . Sekiro : Shadows Die Twice is the latest from Dark Souls developers From Software . It 's set in a fantasy vision of Sengoku Japan , in the middle of a conflict between the Ashina and Hirata clans . You play a rogue shinobi called Sekiro -- the one-armed wolf -- charged with protecting a young lord who has the coveted power to defy death . It 's more of an action game than an RPG . You pick up new prosthetic arms and learn new combat techniques , and even put skill points into a few upgrade trees . Do n't expect to be fiddling with armour stats : this is a game about brief , deadly battles in an age @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is beautiful . Instead of chipping down health bars until the enemy keels over , you overwhelm their posture bar with strikes and perfect parries until an opening appears , and then finish with a deathblow . Enemy health bars are there to affect the amount of damage an enemy 's posture takes . As you get slashes through an enemy 's guard and damage them directly , they will take more posture damage from future attacks and recover more slowly . You can attack enemies with combos , special sword attacks , prosthetic gadgets and shinobi arts , but the aim is always to max out that posture gauge and get that final blow . I love the catharsis of beating a great boss in a From Software game . In Sekiro the deathblow system focuses all that emotion into one split second . After a tough encounter there 's a rush of elation and relief when you see the glowing red deathblow reticle and hit the killing attack . Boss exchanges can be gruelling . If you dislike using parry timings in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ attack lands -- then Sekiro might not be for you . Some bosses require you to consistently parry multiple combos . One fight in a tight space with a creature called Long-Arm Centipede Giraffe is basically a rhythm action sequence . You ca n't avoid their blitz of attacks ; you just have to deflect them all in a shower of sparks and shwing swhing shwing noises . Precise deflections deal posture damage back to the enemy , and some enemies are designed to be defeated using deflections alone . It 's a tough but incredibly rewarding system to master . It feels amazing to effortlessly deflect and counter enemies that were once a terrible challenge . Thankfully parry timings are generous and much more responsive than the vague shield-wave you get in Dark Souls . You can also hold block and then release-and-tap to get a parry , which keeps you relatively safe as you 're learning enemy attack patterns . Enemies throw you out of blocking with special thrust , slash , and grab attacks , which have their own counters . You can step on a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ kicking off the enemy 's head with a tap of the A button on a controller for a good dose of posture damage . You can use your dodge to avoid many grab attacks , but as you fight deeper into the game , expect enemies to start wrong-footing you with unusual attack patterns . You can counter with your increasingly powerful prosthetic arm . As you find upgrades you can return to your hub , the Dilapidated Temple , to have your gruff but caring sculptor friend install and upgrade them . Upgrades include an axe that smashes enemy shields , an unfolding metal umbrella that deflects gunfire , a device that throws shuriken ( brilliant for knocking jumping enemies down mid-flight ) , and more that I wo n't spoil . You can switch between three at a time and swap those three around in the pause menu whenever you like . They are often designed to counter specific enemy behaviours , and an opponent that initially seems impossible can often be defeated easily with a specific prosthetic attachment -- shield enemies are comically rubbish once you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sekiro ran at a flawless 60 frames per second for the duration of our playthrough . There seems to be a 60 fps cap , but modders are already creating workarounds that can give you frame rates of 100 or more . There is a wide range of advanced options for PC players , including a welcome setting that turns motion blur off -- these combat animations are too pretty to smudge . This is n't a Dark Souls game , but Sekiro has plenty in common with the dark fantasy RPG series . Sekiro is made up of large but separate zones rather than a huge connected world like Lordran . Dark Souls fans will still enjoy the knotted structure of these areas , though , and there are many secrets hidden just off the critical path , often reached with the excellent grappling hook , which lets you vault between tree branches and rooftops using the left trigger . You will find yourself returning to old areas frequently to catch up with merchants and NPCs , who have their own mysterious needs and backstories . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like I 'm skirting on the surface during the first playthrough . I expect it will take months of fans making connections for Sekiro 's deeper stories to emerge . Sekiro 's main plot is told through Sekiro 's conversations with the little Lord and other NPC hangers-on . Sekiro himself is also voiced , and plot development happens in conversations that occasionally offer multiple choice options . For the first ten hours or so I found the world itself to be quite bland -- a mix of samey brown-hued townships with a slim selection of enemies . The variety expands enormously as the game progresses and beautiful new areas open up . Strangely , though the combat system is very challenging , Sekiro is less punishing than Dark Souls . The environments are bound together by Idols , which are the game 's equivalent of Dark Souls bonfires . When you die you respawn at the last Idol you touched , but you only lose half of your money and some skill experience . 30 percent of the time you will get ' Unseen Aid ' , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that percentage chance of getting unseen aid , but there 's no way to get completely stuck in Sekiro . You can bank your money by purchasing bags of coin at vendors , and if you really want to buy something you can do a lap of an earlier area after popping a magic gold-boosting balloon . New skills are nice , but they are not crucial to progression . Importantly , stat boosts are tied to bosses . You can process memories of great boss fights to increase attack power and turn in prayer beads to increase health and posture . You get prayer beads from secret chests and one-off kills of tough ordinary enemies . That means you ca n't grind for stat boosts . Instead , the game is balanced around a predictable player power level . To me this a considerable improvement on the Dark Souls formula . It removes all anxiety about being under-leveled or under equipped : you just take on the challenge that 's presented and improve your skill to progress . It helps that you can come @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an Idol you restore up to one resurrection , but killing enemies charges up a second . You ca n't use multiple resurrections in quick succession , but they are a vital crutch and an interesting tactical consideration , especially during boss fights . Sekiro always presents you with multiple exploration avenues at the same time , so if you get stuck on one area , you can try to progress in the other , or backtrack to take on a miniboss that was too tough earlier . Stealth also takes the edge off . In some areas with a lot of ordinary enemies you can discover stealthy routes past them , which makes repetition far less dull . It 's also fun to use stealth in combination with combat . I like to try to eliminate at least one member of a group with an instant stealth kill before blitzing the rest with my sword . Sekiro took me 73 hours to complete , but there are high level challenges hidden throughout that could add another ten before I plunge into new game plus . Sekiro 's combat @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the shinobi fantasy is powerfully realised in every savage deathblow and perfectly timed parry . If you 're up for the challenge , Sekiro will reward your patience with some of the most spectacular , nerve-wracking duelling on PC. |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'get' is used intransitively here, and there is no NP object that functions as a causee.

Confronting " outrageous " tax abuse by tech giants could provide ? 700m for public services , a think-tank has claimed . Measures to tackle tax abuse by large multinational corporations in the chancellor 's autumn Budget " fall a long way short of a solution " , according to TaxWatch UK . The think-tank noted that large multinational companies -- big tech companies , in particular -- use countries like Ireland and the Netherlands to get out of paying their taxes . Chancellor Philip Hammond announced new taxes to address this issue , but TaxWatch UK claims they do not go far enough . A digital services tax announced in Hammond 's October Budget is likely to be subject to legal challenges as it arguably breaks international tax principles . The government predicts the DST will raise ? 275m in its first year ( 2020-21 ) , rising to ? 440m a year by 2023-24 . Hammond also announced in the budget a new tax on royalties derived from sales to UK customers that are later transferred to tax @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will raise just ? 475m in its first year , dwindling to ? 165m after three years .

The think-tank estimated that roughly ? 4bn would have come from revenues made from UK customers . And if this was subject to the UK 's 20% corporation tax , it would provide ? 700m to be invested in UK public services . George Turner , director of TaxWatch UK , said : " For more than 10 years , the public has been outraged by the worrying ease with which the global tech giants have managed to get off paying their taxes . Now is the time for action . " It is abundantly clear that much of the problem with international tax avoidance lies with tax-haven governments that allow large companies to use them as a base to abuse the tax regimes of others .

I 'm the first to admit that I 've had good times and bad times in my career so far . I 've got two kids now , and although I love playing for Watford and I 'm not yet at the stage for reflecting too much , when the time comes to talk them through my playing days at United , I already know the things I 'll remember the most : Coming through the ranks at the club I love . Playing with my mates . Playing for Sir Alex Ferguson . Winning the Premier League . All the bad stuff ... those things are nothing but minors . Of course , I 'd love to be sat here with more league winner 's medals . I 'm still bitter about the way we lost it in 2011/12 and it was only at the very last minute that the manager decided I should go out on loan to Wigan in 2010/11 , the year United won the 19th title . So I might be sat here with three medals @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the story . UTD Unscripted Tom Cleverley says " From the moment I came on against City in the Community Shield to the moment I went off injured against Bolton , that was a special time . I find it hard to remember enjoying football more . " Tom Cleverley I had a great experience at Wigan and did well . When I came back to United , I started pre-season in 2011 well . That 's tended to be something I 've done throughout my career . I do n't know if it 's because I keep myself in good nick over the summer or because I 'm fresh , but I always tend to be sharp in pre-season . More often than not , I 've started the first game of the league season . That happened in 2011/12 . From the moment I came on against City in the Community Shield to the moment I went off injured against Bolton five weeks later , that was a special time in my career . I find it hard to remember enjoying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into a world class team and really finding my feet quickly , seeing off teams with loads of goals ... it was amazing . I never thought I 'd landed , but I felt at home in that team . Then the injury against Bolton just killed me that year . It was a really complicated injury that I had in my foot . I look back and have a few regrets about the tackle that put me out , but I guess that 's part of the story too . The same goes for how 11/12 ended . It does n't get much worse . I was n't in the squad at Sunderland that day , but I was on my way down from the directors ' box at the Stadium of Light and as soon as Dzeko scored City 's equaliser , I knew . I could see it unfolding and that it was meant to be theirs . It was a terrible , terrible day in my career . I still ca n't listen to Martin Tyler 's commentary when the clip comes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I can not listen to it . I have to turn over . My best mate , we 're both the same ; ca n't listen to it . Everything just comes back . Losing to your city rivals on goal difference with the last kick of the season , it does n't get much worse . I 'll never forget in the dressing room after that game . The manager said to us all : ' I told you . That 's why I wanted you to be more ruthless and really kill teams , because you can lose leagues on goal difference . ' And he was right . We 'd gone in after beating teams 3-0 or 4-0 that season and he still had n't been happy with us in the dressing room . That 's how much of a winner he was , how ruthless he wanted us to be . If we 'd done that , scored more goals , really killed teams , we 'd have won the league in 11/12 . But had we done that , would we have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and win it as convincingly as we did ? Would that have been so sweet if it had n't been so sour the year before ? Certainly I was looking forward to 2012/13 . I played for Team GB at the London Olympics -- that 's something else I 'll be telling the kids about with great pride : being an Olympian -- and even though we got knocked out in the quarters I felt like I played well . It kept my fitness up , playing a summer tournament , and I had confidence going into the new season . The whole squad had a big boost , actually . Robin . For longevity , I have to say that Scholesy and Wazza are the best two players I 've played with in my career so far , but if that Premier League winner 's medal in my trophy cabinet was owed to someone , it would have to be Robin van Persie . He was unbelievable . As an individual season , you 'll struggle to find many better than him in 2012/13 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , that were such stalemates , you could just give him the ball and he would make a goal out of nothing . Just an unbelievable finisher . For me , I could n't have imagined his move going as well as it did . Everything he struck that season seemed to find the back of the net . It was n't quite the same for me . Early on in the season I was aware that it was brewing and brewing that I had n't yet scored a senior goal . Newcastle came to Old Trafford in the League Cup and in the first half I missed a sitter . I ca n't really go into detail on the manager 's comments to me at half-time , but it was along the lines of ' you could n't hit a barn door . ' I went out in the second half and scored . I 'd been at United since I was 11 years old . What a moment . Scoring at the Stretford End as an Academy graduate is great . People @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the media that they 're doing it , but if you go through individuals who 've come through and done it , it 's not that many . At the time , though , it was just a feeling of relief . In my previous loan spells I 'd always scored goals , so it was just so good to get off the mark . UTD Unscripted Tom Cleverley says " It was brewing and brewing that I had n't yet scored a senior goal . I 'd been at United since I was 11 years old . What a moment . " Tom Cleverley Ten days later , I scored again . This time at Newcastle in the Premier League . That one ... when United fans who come to speak to me or ask for a picture , it 's the moment a lot of them remember about me . The question is always the same : did you mean it ? Well , it 's one of them ... you 're told to cross for the back post and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if you do overhit it , it goes in . I think I can be honest enough now and say that it was a cross and I was looking for Robin in the box . I 've kept it on target like you 're told to and it 's found the net , so there you have it . That was a great feeling , but to this day , I 've never felt as good after a football match as when Robin scored the last-minute winner against City at the Etihad a couple of months later . Even when we actually won the league , I did n't feel as good as I did in that moment . I think Antonio Valencia and I were both doubts going into the game , and we 'd kept it very quiet that both of us were going to play . I remember in the warm-up , thinking to myself that the manager had put a lot of faith in me , starting me in such a big derby -- all the pre-match talk was that it would be the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pleased with my performance . First half , 2-0 up , we were flying , I 'd played well . I do n't think we played better all season . Even in the second when we were on the rack a bit , I still felt like I was having a good game . I did n't get flustered despite the circumstances . City pulled it back to 2-2 , at which point I think we 'd have been big underdogs . With their home record , they thought they could smell blood . We just came back at them and got the winner . The manager brought me off with five minutes to go , so I was on the bench , right behind Robin 's free-kick as it went in . I knew it was in as soon as he hit it . Jonny Evans had come off earlier in the game and I was sat next to him . I 'm good friends with Jonny and we still laugh about that moment now because I do n't think two people have ever squeezed each @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over the place , the celebrations were madness . All my mates were in that away end , with flares going off around them . To win the derby , in the last minute of what had been a proper game , everything kicking off like it did ... every circumstance just felt so good . I was n't just pleased with all of that and my own performance ; I felt like it was a bit of revenge for what happened the year before . UTD Unscripted Tom Cleverley says " It does stick in your mind , their Sunderland fans goading us on the final day of 11/12 . In the build-up to our next meeting at Old Trafford , you got a sense for how much our fans remembered . " Tom Cleverley Revenge was also a factor when we beat Sunderland a week later . Obviously Sunderland as a club , we did n't have anything against them , but it does stick in your mind , those Sunderland fans goading us on the final day of 11/12 . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are die-hard United fans , and in the build-up to that game at Old Trafford you got a sense for how much the fans remembered Sunderland . We played brilliantly , I scored , we won so comfortably , and after that we had our Christmas get-together . We were comfortably top of the league and things were going well . For me , it made things even better that Welbz was in the team too . For sure it means more to share that kind of experience with a mate - you do get an extra buzz . We both played in the same youth team and I suppose it 's just nice that someone does that journey with you . Jonny was in the team too and he 'd had the same journey , but me and Welbz were just a bit closer . You see what Rashford and Lingard are doing now . It does seem similar to what me and Welbeck had at that time . It 's always better when you 've got a pal there who 's on the same journey . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the Champions League . That 's another one that was both a highlight and a massive source of frustration . That night was the best Old Trafford atmosphere I 've played in , but I 'm still gutted because of the way it panned out . It would have been a big part of my career , beating Real Madrid in a Champions League knockout tie . We were doing it convincingly up until the controversial Nani sending-off , then Modric came on and he was brilliant . They made the extra man count and they beat us in the end . We should never have lost that game . I still remember the manager getting up , gesturing to the Stretford End , the roar that got from the fans ... it was just an unbelievable atmosphere and I ca n't believe we got beat . All their big players were quiet until they got on top when we went down to 10 men . On a personal level I 'm pretty gutted really that I never really got a good run in the Champions League , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ n't too long before we were Premier League champions . Before we clinched the title we played City at Old Trafford and lost 2-1 , and even though we were still miles clear at the top of the table , I remember the manager being livid for the rest of the week that we 'd been beaten . The lads wanted an extra recovery day but he just kept everybody on their toes . We got straight back to winning ways . He was a genius at getting the players to perform to their maximum on the Saturday . The night we won it against Villa , I was on the bench . I wish I 'd been on the pitch at some point , but I have my memories of the night . As soon as the first goal went in , you just thought : ' here we go , this is it . ' I remember Welbeck 's reaction -- everybody 's reaction , actually -- when Robin scored that second goal on the volley . Nobody could believe it . The celebrations made for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , even the backroom staff . We went to the Living Room on Deansgate , then a couple of other places , but what mattered most was that we were all together . It went on long into the Monday night , we had a day off on the Tuesday and then straight back at it on the Wednesday . That was the mentality of the club . I remember the manager and Mick Phelan speaking to us all and telling us that we wanted to finish well . That ruthless streak again . I remember some big challenges going in during training in that week where we 'd won the league . The mentality of some of those players , the standards they set ... Scholesy , Vida going in hard . Win the title , just one day off and go again . We still had a job to do . Some things do n't change . Some things do . I was playing in the club golf day when I heard whispers that Sir Alex was going to call it a day . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ true , we went in to training the next day and he told us . It was clear he was n't going to change his mind . You 're just like ... wow . I have so much respect for players and managers that continue to do it at the top . There are so many challenges , so many obstacles to overcome to be at the top for so many years . He had 27 , 28 years of it . It 's unbelievable . He deserves everything he got . All the trophies , the success , the plaudits . It was just so frustrating that we were n't able to win his last game , at West Brom . Obviously we wanted to win it for him and we threw a big lead away . We should have won that game , no doubt . I think we went 4-1 and 5-2 up , but threw it away . It was so frustrating , but in the grand scheme of things , it did n't change anything . For the 3,000 United fans at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , it was about giving the manager a proper send-off . After the game , when he walks up to the crowd , that moment ... Goodbye after 28 years . Yeah , goosebumps . Even now . These are the things I 'll never forget . Things like the trophy parade around Manchester , too . With the season being over , we enjoyed the parade day a little bit more than the night we won the league . It was unbelievable . I do n't think you 'll see scenes like that on Deansgate again . People must have been breaking in to offices just to get out of the windows and onto the scaffolding . Pictures of that are the things I 'll be showing my kids . That , and outside the town hall on stage with the Courteeners , who are my favourite band . For me , it was literally what dreams are made of . I do n't think I realised at the time how significant a moment it would be in my career . You 're @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ career and challenging for titles every year . I never thought that would be the end . UTD Unscripted Tom Cleverley says " The trophy parade was unbelievable . I do n't think you 'll see scenes like that on Deansgate again . For me , it was literally what dreams are made of . " Tom Cleverley I was quite positive about David Moyes . A good , British manager who had the stability at a previous club , but unfortunately it just did n't work out for him . When I look back on 2013/14 , two games were massive in , well , my downfall , I suppose . Liverpool away at the start of the season , we got beat 1-0 , and it was a flat performance from myself . I 'd already had a man-marking job on Hazard in our previous game against Chelsea , and that day I had the same job on Coutinho at Anfield . For me to show the other side of my game , it was tough . Then you start @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from it all when you 're living in Manchester , your mates are all United fans and you 're playing for the biggest club in the world . Looking back , I probably was n't mentally ready for everything that was going to come my way . I struggled with the mental side of things . In the mix of it all I had a couple of good games -- the manager still had the faith in me to play and I played a lot that year -- but then the Olympiakos away game killed me , really . I was poor that night . The snowball had already started , but now it had real momentum . I was one of those players who goes under the radar in a team of stars , and you 're the first name that comes into everybody 's mind when they 're thinking about making changes . I remember my next start , four weeks after Olympiakos , going into the City game at home when we got beat 3-0 and I 've never , ever been lower on confidence @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ footballer can have , and that night I had none of it . I 'm not going to lie and say that I was enjoying my life at that time . Football was my life . I was playing for a club that I loved , I 'd worked so hard to get there and I could see it falling apart . It was devastating . You get letters at the training ground . You try to respond to fan mail , but in the end it gets to a point where you 're better off not reading it . Social media was just a hindrance , so I closed my accounts . Having a lot of followers on Twitter meant a lot less to me than my mental health and my football career . I just got rid of it all and I 've never gone back on since . I think that 's been good for me . Now , with two young kids and my missus , I 'm far too busy in everyday life to be tweeting or Instagramming every two minutes . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ part of the modern game , having interaction with fans , but it 's just not me as a person , so I 'm not going to try and do it .

I 'm not going to tell them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ someone sent this to the training ground . Like I said , these things are the absolute minors of what happened during my time with United .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'run out of' which is a phrasal verb indicating depletion of something, not a construction involving causation or prevention. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either movement/extraction or prevention.

The average adult patient has to wait a month for a GP appointment , new research reveals . And this week one woman in Wales revealed she rang her surgery 250 times before getting through . No wonder many patients are furious and GPs ' receptionists often feel their wrath . But what is it like for them ? Here , in an eye-opening weekly diary , one receptionist , Nicola Thomas* , 35 , reveals the real reasons you are being kept on hold . . . Monday , February 25 , 2019 Mr S would like an urgent appointment with his GP . He has phoned the surgery right on cue as the lines opened at 8am and he 's lucky to be the first person I pick up . Seconds in and he 's exasperated . He says he 's been ' in pain @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ another day ' and informs me it 's ' none of your business ' when I ask for medical details . ' I 'm sorry , ' I begin . ' But if you can give me even an idea of what the problem is , I can see who is the best person available to see you . ' There 's a pause as he weighs his options . ' It 's my foot , ' he snaps . ' My verruca is killing me . I need something from the doctor . ' The average adult has to wait a month for a GP appointment , according to a new study ( stock image ) A verruca . A common wart that can be treated with over-the-counter medicine from any pharmacy . But Mr S is adamant he has to see the GP . I 'm going to have to let him down gently . I explain we only have two emergency appointments this morning and they ca n't be given to someone with a verruca . I suggest he visits the chemist . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hell ' and slams the phone down . It 's a lovely start to my working week but not uncommon . Over the next 15 minutes , my colleague Ann and I will answer around a dozen calls each until the eight routine appointments are given out to patients with earache , stomach ache , coughs and colds . The two emergency appointments are given to children under five , pensioners or anyone experiencing chest pain or similar conditions which warrant a GP immediately . We have only two doctors on duty today covering an area which has around 7,000 patients so it can be crazily busy . I 've definitely noticed it get busier over the eight years I 've been working on reception and that 's hardly surprising . More than a thousand GPs have quit since 2015 and although I 've been at this practice for only two years , my colleagues tell me they used to have four full-time GPs before they retired . This morning is no different -- I field calls about splinters , nits and even cracked lips . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ often reminded about by patients -- but I am trained in triage and know nits should not be taking up seven minutes of precious time with an overworked GP . I am very aware of how most people view GP receptionists . We have a reputation for being dismissive , abrupt and on occasions downright rude , but from this side of the desk , I 'm amazed more of us do n't blow our tops . When the phone lines open , around 40 per cent of the calls I 'll take will involve some kind of insult in my direction -- maybe a slammed down phone or an actual threat of violence . Nicola Thomas* , 35 , reveals the real reasons why people are kept on hold by GPs ' receptionists in a weekly diary ( stock image ) Share When I first started out , I 'd take those calls very personally and would often be reduced to tears . Nowadays , I stand up for myself . I get paid ? 8 an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Primark -- so I 'm not going to stand for any nonsense . Does that make me a battleaxe ? I 'm not sure . By 8.30am , when the doors to the surgery open , all the appointments have gone for the day . That does n't stop the queue outside filing in , hoping to see a GP . I 'm going to disappoint them too , unfortunately . Some might be genuinely worried and feel rotten but with no appointments left , what can I do ? I do n't feel ashamed of our surgery because I know that the doctors , nurses and receptionists work so hard to see as many patients as possible . But it 's a numbers game -- we ca n't possibly see everyone . TUESDAY , February 26 Today is slightly quieter , but we have a lot of people insisting on seeing their doctors with coughs and colds . Nearly everyone in the waiting room today is there for a cough or a cold . Many have come in because they think it 's a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rare and GPs are now -- rightly -- very wary of prescribing antibiotics to patients , because their overuse is making many resistant to dangerous bugs . As receptionists , we 're exposed to more germs than most and I 've had at least four colds in the past year . The difference is with us , we take a couple of paracetamol and work through it . Even if the doctor tells them to take paracetamol , I 'm astonished by the number of people who still demand a prescription for it . They could walk into the chemist and buy a packet for 25p , but they insist on a prescription which costs the NHS around ? 6 . It 's such a drain on the service but GPs give them because it 's less hassle than arguing with a patient over cost . WEDNESDAY , February 27 My first caller today tells me this is his 91st attempt to get through to the doctors this week . I 'm sympathetic and not entirely surprised . He says he has blood in his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a GP quickly . I book him in for 10.15am . . . and he does n't show up . Ten per cent of patients never attend appointments , which is incredibly frustrating for others who genuinely need them . While these non-attendees will get a text message and a letter of warning , they 're rarely struck off . It 's got to the point where often I can recognise a voice of one our regular hypochondriacs wanting to be referred for a blood test or a scan because they feel something ' is n't right ' . I have patients telling me they 're coughing up blood -- it may just be blood vessels in their throat which have burst after a nasty cough , or something more sinister -- so naturally I have to book them in . Or people will say they 're suicidal and you ca n't turn them away . But they come in and it turns out they 've simply forgotten to fill in their repeat prescription form , and need some more tablets quickly . As much as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is incredibly frustrating for others who genuinely need them ( stock ) This band of ' worried well ' patients are nearly all under 65 . The older people -- particularly those who went through the war -- are made of sterner stuff . They never want to bother us and apologise for being ' a nuisance ' . A lady in her 70s rang and said sorry as she asked if she could possibly speak to her doctor . She was struggling to breathe and had pains in her chest . I urged her to call an ambulance as I was concerned she might be having a heart attack . But clearly nervous about ' bothering ' the ambulance service , she asked to speak to the doctor . In these situations I have to trust my instinct . I knocked on the door of the GP who was between appointments and he immediately spoke to her , reassured her help was on its way and called the ambulance himself . On the opposite end of the spectrum , we get a lot of people in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ If they have a cough , it 's cancer . Today a 19-year-old man wanted an appointment that day because he 'd run out of sleeping pills . When I tell him there are no appointments today he threatens to come to the surgery and ' kick my head in ' . Charming . I no longer get rattled by threats . The worst incident I 've ever had was six years ago when a drug addict came into the surgery because she 'd lost her prescription . When I asked her to call back tomorrow , she started hurling obscenities at me . We call the police several times a year , particularly in the summer months when the heat is getting to people . Drugs and alcohol problems are rife in this area . I read recently that 3,000 people were barred from their GP last year for being violent . Sadly , as mental health services decline , I 've also noted an increase in recent years of the seriously disturbed people who end up at the GPs . We want to help @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and are simply creating a nuisance , we often call the police . THURSDAY , February 28 The usual round of morning calls with another verruca , a urine infection , a pulled muscle and conjunctivitis -- all of which can be treated at the pharmacist . So many patients do n't want to tell the receptionist the problem , thinking we 'll gossip about them but we 're not even allowed to talk to our partners about patients . We also have Mr W on the phone just before lunchtime . He 's one of our patients who regularly rings us just to find out how we are . He 's 81 and was widowed last year and he 's simply lonely . She says we need more doctors for a start but ca n't see anything to change that . Two regular GPs for a town serving 7,000 people is not nearly enough , she claims ( stock photo ) We 're more than happy to have a quick chat if we 're not too busy but other times I have to cut @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people trying to get through . Yet I 'm acutely aware I might be the only human voice he hears all day . One of the best parts of my job is getting to know patients , many of whom are lovely . When you have worked in the same surgery for years you get to see people at key moments in their lives -- the births of their babies , the deaths of their loved ones . It 's touching when people bring in cards , flowers or chocolates to say thank you . FRIDAY , March 1 Two of the local care homes ring today wanting home visits . They phone all the time and even admit that nothing is wrong with any of the residents . But if someone dies in a care home and they have n't been seen by a doctor in the preceding two weeks , the death will have to be looked at by a coroner . So they play it safe . We get a woman ringing in because her ten-year-old child has diarrhoea . She 'd been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but 111 are a nightmare for us because they say to patients that they need to see their doctor within two hours . That 's not helpful when it comes to diarrhoea which can be easily passed on if the patient comes into the surgery . We are given a lot of training about who to give appointments to and who to direct elsewhere . Many of the courses are online and we are encouraged -- although not obliged -- to do as many courses as possible . For instance , I hope I could recognise symptoms of sepsis . In the early days , I 'd worry about making a mistake . I once had a woman ring in to say her four-year-old son had a twisted testicle . That did n't sound urgent to me but I double-checked with the GP who said he needed to come in straight away as it 's a medical emergency and if untreated could result in infertility . But you learn quickly and I 'm constantly updating my training . While we may have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be approachable . We 're not all saints , though . I 've worked with some people who could be offhand with patients . I remember a young man coming in saying he had a cold , who was given short shrift by a colleague . When she 'd gone into the office , he turned to me and said : ' I 'm sorry , I do n't have a cold , I feel suicidal and I need help -- but I did n't want to tell her that . ' You ca n't be so unfriendly that people ca n't open up . The surgery closes at 5pm but if we have emergency appointments they can go up to 5.30pm . At 5.25pm we get another flurry of calls from people asking if we can fit them in for a last-minute appointment . We ca n't and suggest they come back in the week or visit their pharmacist for advice . I 'm always reluctant to advise patients to go to A&E , which is already overrun , unless it sounds like an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ my weekend with my husband and boys , it 's been a fairly typical week . If I was in charge of the health service , what would I change ? We need more doctors for a start but I ca n't see anything to change that . Two regular GPs for a town serving 7,000 people is not nearly enough . People need to use their pharmacists more . These are highly trained people who can often help and if they ca n't , they will advise you to see your doctor . And more education about your health in general . |

The Tory party can boast having had two women prime ministers . But shamefully , both were cruelly driven out of office . Neither was evicted from No 10 by the voters . Instead , they fell victim to treacherous MPs in their own party -- most of whom were men . Sadly , there is undoubtedly a lesson to be learnt here about the nature of today 's politics . Even in a country where women make up almost half of the workforce and have some of the biggest jobs , male dominance persists in Westminster . In theory , Theresa May 's decision last night to stand down was made in order to give the best possible chance for her Brexit withdrawal deal following a series of overwhelming Commons defeats . She felt she could do no more . However , the brutal truth is that just like Margaret Thatcher @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Theresa May 's decision last night to stand down was made in order to give the best possible chance for her Brexit withdrawal deal following a series of overwhelming Commons defeats Mrs Thatcher was more fortunate . She had been allowed 11 years in power before the assassination squad of men took aim . Moreover , by then , Mrs Thatcher had massive achievements to her name . By the time she left Downing Street , she 'd established herself as one of the great prime ministers of Britain , someone whose name will endure as long as the United Kingdom exists . Not so Theresa May . She lasted less than three years . And she has no achievements to rival Thatcher 's Falklands victory , trade union reform , or the rebooting of a stagnant economy . She was given one job , one job only -- to deliver Brexit . It is likely thus that history will record Mrs May as a failure . Ultimately , she made what is known in chess as ' the Queen sacrifice ' . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the board for strategic advantage . In her case , Mrs May sacrificed herself on the alter of Brexit . Her legacy depends utterly on whether this gambit succeeds . What if it fails ? In theory , her pledge to quit after Brexit , leaves open the possibility that she could hang on if it is delayed . She was given one job , one job only -- to deliver Brexit . It is likely thus that history will record Mrs May as a failure There 's absolutely no chance this will happen . In so far as she 'll be remembered a few decades hence , I 'm afraid it will be for her dithering and dismal inability to bring about what was desired after the biggest vote in this country 's history -- namely the EU referendum of the summer of 2016 . Yet she will be remembered with some affection as a prime minister who did her best . She always battled on and , despite being written off again and again , had near miraculous powers of recovery . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ becoming PM , she flourished for six years in one of Westminster 's most demanding portfolios -- the Home Office . ( In some ways , there are parallels with Gordon Brown -- also a fundamentally decent person -- who produced his greatest political achievements before he became PM , as a capable and highly intelligent Chancellor . Incidentally , if she somehow manages to cling on till May 22 , she will overtake Brown as Britain 's 35th longest-serving Prime Minister -- a small consolation . ) It was Mrs May 's assured performance as Home Secretary which earned her the respect which propelled her to No 10 . In her first speech as Prime Minister she spoke with sincerity to those families who were , as she later put it , ' just about managing ' . And she led by example in calling for Britain to take action against the ' barbaric evil ' of modern slavery . But that was simply not enough . It was Mrs May 's assured performance as Home Secretary which earned her the respect which propelled @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Westminster , keeping power is the only currency that counts . For too long , Mrs May had been a political bankrupt . On a personal level , this will be a deeply painful time of soul-searching for a woman whose life has revolved around the Conservative Party since her days as an undergraduate at Oxford in the Seventies . Even when she became a junior Bank of England official after leaving university , it was only meant to be a stop-gap job on her hoped-for journey to Parliament . She never wanted anything other than to be an MP . She 's most at home in Tory association garden parties and constituency events . For decades , she canvassed every week . She still does when she has time . I 'm sure she will continue to do so out of Downing Street . Nor did she make any secret of her desire to become Prime Minister . But that dream is now shattered . Of course , as ever , she will have the granite support of husband Philip . In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with him having cut his teeth in student politics before she made her mark , too , at university where they met . She has daily gained great strength from his advice -- in the same way that Thatcher did from Denis , who similarly had his own very successful business career . At moments of crisis , Philip sat in the Commons visitor 's gallery and tenderly supported his wife . He will always be remembered as one of the most decent and loyal prime ministerial consorts . It 's easy to see why she made the concession on the backstop . Negotiations with the EU were stalled , and she was desperate for a breakthrough ( pictured with European Council President , Donald Tusk in Brussels ) . His wife will need every ounce of his support over coming days . Cast out of office , she will brood on her failures -- and on the betrayal of the party she has dedicated her life to . That said , she knows she made grave errors . First and foremost was the mistake of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Opinion polls suggested the Tories had an advantage of more than 20 points over Labour . However , an incoherent and lacklustre campaign on her part resulted in her being deprived of the Commons majority she 'd inherited from David Cameron , and made her utterly reliant on the Democratic Unionist Party . Those Ulster men and women betrayed her . Mrs May will inevitably wonder whether by triggering Article 50 in March 2017 , thus committing Britain to leave the EU within two years , she did the right thing . Nick Timothy , May 's original joint Chief of Staff , had influence so strong that it often seemed that he was in control In retrospect , this handed a huge negotiating advantage to Brussels because , thereafter , the British government was always fighting a losing battle against the clock as well as against the intransigence of the other 27 national EU leaders . Mrs May will also wonder whether she was right to have agreed to demands for the so-called Irish ' backstop ' ( the term for the British guarantee @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ north and south ) . Many Leave supporters had been aghast at the way Brussels turned this , something that was barely mentioned in the referendum campaign , into the stumbling block that could yet prevent Brexit happening . It 's easy to see why she made the concession on the backstop . Negotiations with the EU were stalled , and she was desperate for a breakthrough . As a result , though , Mrs May became embroiled in an internecine war with her own party -- which has now pushed her from No 10 . As she licks her wounds over the coming months , Mrs May will surely also torment herself over why she did n't order serious preparations for a No Deal . By failing to do so , Britain 's negotiating position with Brussels was fatally weaker . In addition , she blundered by not having an alternative strategy if her deal failed . Ruthless EU negotiators in Brussels saw this and took advantage . This meant that when she tried to play hardball , the EU 's chief @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ May will also ponder on her personal failures . In the past , Conservative leaders have relied on their own charisma and back-slapping bonhomie to generate support through the difficult times . Such qualities , though , are not in Mrs May 's character . She lacks these skills . She is n't warm enough . Few can deny Theresa May 's quiet dignity , patriotism and courage . In a debased age in which too many political leaders are egotists , she was patently trying to act as best she could in the national interest Other Achilles heels were her secretiveness and the fact that she was too suspicious of others . Members of her Cabinet complained , again and again , that they were kept in the dark about her intentions . Like David Cameron , she was far too dependent on a clique of advisers . For the first half of her premiership , she often seemed beholden to her chief of staff , Nick Timothy . An ardent Brexiteer , unlike his boss who had campaigned to Remain , his influence @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in control , telling Mrs May what to do . But Mr Timothy was forced out in the wake of the 2017 General Election fiasco . To be fair , his sacking was deserved . He 'd abused his power and sidelined Cabinet ministers . But his departure meant Mrs May had suddenly lost her brother-in-arms and she became in thrall to a new set of advisers . The key member was Olly Robbins , her chief Brexit negotiator . He called the shots . But unlike Mr Timothy , who wanted a clean break with the EU , the Europhile civil servant was determined to maintain the closest ties . And with this change of adviser , Mrs May changed , too . She started to press for Britain to remain linked to key European institutions , such as the customs union and single market . This mini U-turn led her critics to feel justified in their complaints that the prime minister had no deep convictions of her own . They have argued that she @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the most senior people around her . On a personal level , this will be a deeply painful time of soul-searching for a woman whose life has revolved around the Conservative Party since her days as an undergraduate at Oxford in the Seventies ( pictured with her Geography undergraduate class ) With Mr Robbins running the show , the Cabinet was once again kept in the dark . Brexit Secretary David Davis resigned because he felt he was not consulted about policy . His successor , Dominic Raab , soon quit for very much the same reason . Underlying her protracted failure to deliver Brexit , there was a widespread feeling that Mrs May was in her heart very much a Remainer . That as a woman brought up as a vicar 's daughter who attended one of the world 's oldest universities , she was an Establishment figure who instinctively believed in the status quo and that Britain belonged inside , and not outside , the EU . This meant , her critics believed , that she set about negotiations with the air of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ trying to mitigate the damage she had inherited after others had made a bad decision . In sum , someone whose heart was not in Brexit . In hindsight , perhaps , it might well have been better if a Brexiteer such as Boris Johnson or David Davis had replaced Cameron . They would have intuitively prepared a much tougher negotiating position to try to secure the best possible deal for Britain . They would have sold it with passion and optimism to the British people . What can not be denied , though , as we look back at Mrs May 's premiership , is that there was always much affection for Mrs May among the electorate . Voters saw a woman of integrity doing her utmost in very trying circumstances . Even a great politician -- a Thatcher or a Churchill -- would have made errors in trying to navigate Brexit . But few can deny Theresa May 's quiet dignity , patriotism and courage . In a debased age in which too many political leaders are egotists , she was patently @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interest . She was motivated by duty , not by a sense of self or by an eye on her legacy . She is British to her core . She passionately believes in the union . She has always remained calm . She fought as hard as she could and made the best of an impossible job . For myself , I believe that her withdrawal deal was the best available . All other options were worse . Now , instead of that deal being her legacy , she has left Britain entering an uncertain and dangerous future . Theresa May would have wished otherwise . This daughter of a country vicar will today feel that she 's been battered by evil spirits that ganged up against her . But I have no doubt that her late father , Hubert Brasier , would have felt the deepest pride in his daughter 's robust and courageous conduct over the past two years . And that will count a great deal to Theresa May herself . Her career may well end in failure @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Downing Street for the last time as Prime Minister , she can hold her head high . But she still has one last battle to fight . And if the Queen Sacrifice chess ploy comes off , she will leave Downing Street in something like triumph . As a human being , that 's the least she deserves . |

The sentence 'The first time you made money out of being a musician...' does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction. The NP object 'money' does not function as a causee, and the sentence does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a means of earning money, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Every week , we ask one artist a set of quick-fire questions that all start with ' the first ' , from their first shows and paycheques to the first time they fell in love and got drunk . Here , LA cool-girl turned rock femme fetale Jesse Jo Stark talks making it in music , loving hard and why self-belief is still a daily struggle Social Content Editor , GQ . Follow her on Instagram at @k.m.johnston and Twitter at @kmejohnston Friday 29 March 2019 Jesse Jo Stark was destined to be rock royalty and she 's got the tour bus to prove it . I meet her on an unseasonably -- even by our new global warming standards -- windy day in London , where she 's parked up outside around the back of Camden Roundhouse .

Little surprise , then , that she describes her vibe as " hillbilly horror " . As the daughter of Richard and Laurie Lynn Stark , the founders of ultra-cool rocker brand Chrome Hearts , the 27-year-old singer-songwriter has been around musicians since her earliest years . Raised on a diet of David Bowie and Fleetwood Mac , Stark boasts Cher as her godmother , Duff McKagan of Guns N ' Roses a family friend and her first EP , Down The Drain , was produced by Sex Pistols guitarist Steve Jones . There 's no doubt that Stark is well-connected ( Bella Hadid is her BFF ) , but it 's sheer talent that 's really taking her places .

She 's also bringing a much-needed female voice to the indie rock scene , like a Patti Smith or Viv Albertine for the Instagram generation ( she has a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the indie darling speaks to GQ about everything from to self-belief and stage fright to heartbreak and media misperceptions .

" I was , like , 17 or 18 and I 'd done a million little things before , but my first real big show was when I did a collaboration with Vans . We threw a huge party at the Troubadour in LA .

It 's a brown vest with a ' P ' sign , fringe and fur . Then the pants were denim with leather ' P ' sign patches on them . I was really little , like seven .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks a clear causer and causee relationship, and the phrase 'run out of living space' does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate with a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Here 's my gaming metaphor of the day : Tropico is like that one friend you have - you know the one - who you see at regularly reoccurring events and do n't speak much outside of that .

Developer : Kalypso Media Publisher : Limbic Entertainment Platform : PC Availability : Out now on PC and Mac , Xbox One and PS4 versions later this year Tropico used to come around every 2 to 3 years with a few new features , the core idea always intact . You take control of a dictator tasked with leading their island nation - and their own wallet - to glory . How things play out is dictated less by you and more by the demands of the factions that represent the different interests of your people . Ignore their demands for too long and you risk a rebellion . Under new developer Limbic Entertainment factions are the main feature the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or two factions to keep up with things , you now eventually deal with all eight available factions simultaneously . It 's impossible to make everyone happy , as every demand you fill for one group will cost you standing with another . To turn Tropico into a thriving paradise you need to keep things in balance , traditionally the last thing you expect from a despot . Of course you have some ways to bend the populace to your will . You can always put overly demanding faction leaders in jail or arrange accidents . Elections are optional at best , and if your farmers work around the clock for a few months or years in a bid to raise productivity , who 's really counting ? Such actions will naturally lead to dissent in the long run and are thus more of a last-minute hat trick for getting out of a bind . Tropico 6 ditches its predecessor 's dynasty system , which let El Presidente gain attributes through members of his clan .

The central point of criticism regarding Tropico 6 is the same it 's ever been : the setup makes it seem like you have the power to be as evil as you want to be , but it 's never a sustainable approach .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('Some 570,738 of those') + V1 ('had opted') + NP object ('out of') + VP2[-ing] predicate ('being on the open...'). It implies a prevention interpretation where the subject has chosen not to be on the open list, thus preventing their inclusion. The verb 'opted' fits into the category of verbs that involve a means to achieve a goal (by choice or decision), and the NP object is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

More than a quarter of a million voters in Surrey have their names on an " open " version of the electoral register -- meaning their details can be bought by any company . Any adult who is entitled to vote must add their name to the electoral register if they are requested to do so . But while all names and addresses appear on the " full " register -- accessible only to election officials , the police , government departments and credit-check firms -- nearly one in three are also on an " open " register . This is an extract of the full register which contains names and address , and which can be freely bought . Direct marketing firms , lobbying companies , religious groups and estate agents are among those known to have purchased the open register . Data published by the Office for National Statistics last week showed there were a total of 825,609 people registered to vote in Surrey at the end of 2018 . Some 570,738 of those had opted out of being on the open @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to buy . Some 24,527 of those were in Tandridge , where 39 per cent of all voters are on the open register . That percentage varies across the county , falling as low as 22.2 per cent ( less than a quarter ) in Spelthorne. |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pull out of being best man' involves 'pull out of' followed by a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'pull' and 'out of'. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations typical of the transitive out of -ing construction.

2 d Newsdesk Actor Liam Neeson has issued a new apology for his racially-fuelled vigilante remarks , which landed him in big trouble last month ( Feb19 ) . While promoting his new film Cold Pursuit , about a grieving father who takes seeks revenge against his son 's murderers , the 66-year-old leading man sparked outrage by recounting his efforts in seeking out a black man he believed raped his friend . Liam told Britain 's Independent newspaper he went looking to kill a " black b**tard " who fitted the description of his friend 's attacker . " I went up and down areas with a cosh , hoping I 'd be approached by somebody - I 'm ashamed to say that - and I did it for maybe a week , hoping some black b**tard would come out of a pub and have a go at me about something , you know ? So that I could kill him , " he said . The star was roasted on social @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on television in the U.S. days later to apologise for his remarks , insisting he is not a racist . Now , a month later , Liam is apologising again , noting that after much reflection he has realised how much pain his comments caused . " Over the last several weeks , I have reflected on and spoken to a variety of people who were hurt by my impulsive recounting of a brutal rape of a dear female friend nearly 40 years ago and my unacceptable thoughts and actions at that time in response to this crime , " he wrote in a statement on Friday ( 29Mar19 ) . " The horror of what happened to my friend ignited irrational thoughts that do not represent the person I am . In trying to explain those feelings today , I missed the point and hurt many people at a time when language is so often weaponized and an entire community of innocent people are targeted in acts of rage . " What I failed to realize is that this is not about justifying my anger @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ impact my words have today . I was wrong to do what I did . I recognize that , although the comments I made do not reflect , in any way , my true feelings nor me , they were hurtful and divisive . I profoundly apologize . " |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'out of' as a complex preposition followed by a noun phrase 'nothing but naked personal ambition', which does not introduce a VP[-ing]. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

NO doubt as a result of my last column , in which I predicted that she would go down in history as the worst prime minister of all time , worse even than Lord North who lost British control of North America , Theresa May has resigned ; or rather , it being Mrs May , she has n't done anything quite so straightforwar . Just as she had previously reassured backbench Tory MPs that she would n't be leader by the time of the next General Election ( which , if you ask me , and if they had had any backbone or sense at all , would be happening about now ) , she 's promising that she 'll quit if her catastrophically bad Withdrawal Agreement ( WA ) is passed . This is like a persistent insurance salesman offering to sell you cover after he 's soaked your soft furnishings in petrol and then offering to leave quietly if you 'll just let him fling a lit box of Swan Vestas onto the sofa -- and later discovering @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Prime Minister can come up with a variation , or a decoupling , or some other twist that will persuade the Speaker to allow her to table Meaningful Vote 3 : Westminster Drift , today is largely irrelevant . Unless the Democratic Unionist Party ( DUP ) can be won round , there seems no chance it will pass , even with the very attractive sweetener of seeing the back of her . And why should it ? Wednesday 's votes on eight different options ( all of them , in my view , better than the WA ) , showed that five of the eight were more popular than the deal Mrs May is still flogging , like some specialist purveyor of hippic euthanasia . Since none of those hypothetical options secured a majority , we need n't worry about their qualities , nor about the small detail of whether they would be acceptable to the EU . All the same , it says something about the obtuseness of MPs that the order of their preferences was more or less the opposite of the relative merits of each @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would be tempting , and satisfying , to lay the blame for this on the stupidity , cowardice and lack of principle that characterises the Parliamentary Conservative Party . There ought to be a new measure of political debasement ( call it the Uxbridge and South Ruislip index ) to describe MPs who , out of nothing but naked personal ambition , now say that they might be prepared to back the WA after all . But the ghastliness of Tory MPs is matched , perhaps even superseded , by the abysmal quality of Opposition MPs . They have almost universally seen Brexit not as a liberation , an opportunity , a challenge , a problem , or a danger -- or any of the other things you might choose to see it as -- for the country but , instead , as an opportunity to promote their own , or their party 's , fortunes . The view of Jeremy Corbyn and his clique is clearly that they 'd like Mrs May 's deal to go through , and then prove a disaster , so that he stands @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that the only reason Mrs May is still in her job , with approval ratings of minus 39 ( a record ) is that the Labour leader 's rating is minus 53 . The view of most Labour MPs seems to be that they 'd like to revoke it , while a scant majority of Labour voters want ( or at least , used to want ) to see it implemented . The SNP , naturally , views the debate solely in terms of what it might mean for the prospects for independence , cheerfully picking and choosing from contradictory arguments about the will of the people , the necessity of abiding by referendum results and the difficulty of unpicking years of shared laws , regulation , industry and economic policy from political unions , as long as it suits their agenda . What the Liberal Democrats , who ought to be polling at least 48 per cent , are doing , I have no idea . Except that Sir Vince Cable seems to have anticipated Mrs May 's novel policy of announcing a resignation but nonetheless staying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The DUP seems to see the current chaos as a nice little earner . But with the imminent ( we can but hope ) resignation of Mrs May , it is naturally the Conservative party that is getting attention . Yet the Prime Minister 's departure is what logicians would describe as necessary but not sufficient . If she 's only going to go if she gets her deal through , we 'd have a new PM shackled by a deal which he or she did n't devise , and probably detests -- we know that because everybody except Mrs May detests it . For the Tory party there are the additional difficulties of finding a new leader who fulfills all the following criteria : pro-Brexit ; capable of sorting out a dog 's dinner ; not totally discredited already ; and stands some chance of winning a general election . A lot of party members would also like the candidate to be a Tory , since all the non-Brexit policies introduced by the Government have been profoundly unConservative ; unsurprisingly , since the manifesto on which they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ scientists ) the most Left-wing since 1964 . You may , like so many people , have no sympathy with the Tories . Indeed , even those well-disposed towards the party have no reason to approve of the current shower , given their demonstrable failure to do any of the things that are supposed to be the Conservatives ' long suit ; safeguarding the national interest , competently administering the economy , resisting useless and bossy legislation and so on . Since they are more divided than at any time since the arguments over the repeal of the Corn Laws , no civic-minded person should have any interest in keeping the party together ; better for them , and us , to end their misery . Yet there remains the horrifying reality -- as there is with the multitudinous Brexit options -- that every other outcome looks even worse . We were supposed to be leaving the EU at 11 o'clock tonight in an orderly and friendly fashion , with everyone knowing exactly where we stood . Instead , Mrs May 's legacy is that we do n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lies in store for the country or for public discourse , which is more sharply divided than at any time in centuries .

Instead, it describes an action where the schoolboys crashed the WiFi network to avoid taking exams, which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action.

Spencer Haywood set the stage , Michael Jordan made it bigger and Kevin Durant super-sized it when he helped usher in the one-and-done era . Decades after those players made their groundbreaking departures from college , March Madness and the NBA 's mega-millions have taken all the novelty out of leaving early for the pros . In the present era of one-and-done - a system that begat college programs that cater to kids in search of a one-year stopover instead of a diploma - the decision about whether to take off early for the NBA is n't so much one of ' if ' but ' when ' for hundreds of players every year . An Associated Press analysis of NCAA Tournament rosters over the last three decades shows the ever-expanding impact that early entry , and especially the one-and-done player , has had on both the college game and the NBA draft . In 2005 , the year before the one-and-done rule went into effect , there were nine high schoolers and one freshman drafted . Last season , there were no high schoolers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . In the first year the AP studied , 1989 , there were 13 early entries , five of whom played in the NCAA Tournament . Only one player drafted by the NBA that year was a freshman , Shawn Kemp . ( The future six-time NBA All Star never played college basketball after eligibility issues at Kentucky and a transfer to a junior college . ) The rules could be changing again soon . FILE - In this June 14 , 1992 , file photo , Michael Jordan celebrates the Bulls win over the Portland Trail Blazers in the NBA Finals in Chicago . Decades after Jordan 's groundbreaking departure from college , March Madness and the NBA 's mega-millions have taken all the novelty out of leaving early for the pros . ( AP Photo/John Swart , File ) The NBA is considering doing away with the rule prohibiting players under 19 from being drafted , and the league is trying to come up with a new system . But it does n't want to return to the days of the 1990s and early @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ many of them never developing into stars or even role players . Whatever the change , it figures to have a considerable impact on the college game , though nobody is sure exactly what the impact will be . " I think kids should go right to the NBA , " says Kentucky coach John Calipari , who has become the leading advocate of one-and-done , and the security it has brought to many college players and their families . " But there 's probably ( only ) five or six or seven that are ready to do that , and even half of those will probably spend time in the ( developmental ) G League . " It was n't always like this . Haywood 's decision to leave the University of Detroit in 1969 for the then-ascending ABA was considered revolutionary at the time . A year later , when he signed with the NBA 's Seattle SuperSonics , he won a Supreme Court case against the league , which had sued for violating the rule that players could n't enter the league until they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's victory set precedent , even if it did n't exactly open the floodgates . Through the 1970s , a handful , sometimes up to a dozen , underclassmen entered each year into a league where a decent salary was only starting to reach into six figures . Some early entries from that era : Moses Malone , Bernard King , Reggie Theus . Magic Johnson came out after his sophomore year , in 1979 , and along with Larry Bird helped take the NBA to new heights . By the time Jordan left North Carolina after the 1984 season - one of nine underclassmen , along with Charles Barkley and Hakeem Olajuwon , to declare that year - the NBA was introducing a salary cap , at $3.6 million a team , and the NCAA was expanding the field in its tournament to 64 teams . Neither the pros nor what essentially became its unofficial minor league , college basketball , have looked back since . Today , the cap stands at nearly $102 million and the number of players who came out early ballooned @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In between Haywood and 2018 , early entry became more the norm than the exception . In the early 1990s , the Fab Five and Michigan helped introduce baggy shorts and hip-hop into basketball . But in a wide-ranging recruiting scandal that resulted in most of their victories being wiped off the official books , Chris Webber , booster Ed Martin and the rest afforded college hoops a preview of the havoc that the growing influence of cash - with boosters , shoe companies and club coaches all playing a role in its distribution - could wreak on the sport . With no restrictions and plenty of opportunities , high schoolers started taking the dip more regularly . But for every Kevin Garnett - the player who triggered the teens-to-NBA onslaught in 1995 - or LeBron James , there were even more like Kwame Brown , a top pick who turned into a bust or , even worse , Taj McDavid , who thought he could go from high school to the NBA , but never got a sniff . That brought about the one-and-done rule @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ entered the draft and helped push the issue to the front-and-center of the basketball conversation , the rule forced players to wait a year after high school to enter the NBA . Most chose to use that year playing college ball , and Calipari was n't the only coach willing to cater to them . These days , " one-and-done " is often used as catch-all for everything wrong with college basketball . With the FBI getting involved in sorting out the connection between money , shoes and hoops - a job many think the NCAA should be doing instead of law enforcement - the NBA is rethinking one-and-done , trying to come up with a system that will better serve the game . " It 's going to happen , " says Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski , one of those who has taken greatest advantage of the system . A new framework could be in play by the 2022 draft . But what that system will bring is the multimillion-dollar question hovering over the game for the next three years . " Tell me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Krzyzewski said . " We do n't know that environment . I do n't know how a youngster will be taken care of . "

Instead try taking a step back and re-thinking what you need to do , focus on the goal rather than not liking the task . A great way to keep procrastination at bay is to plan your day . Figure out when you 're most productive , whether you 're a morning bird or a night owl and work that around your schedule . Try and start with the more difficult tasks as getting through that barrier will make the following jobs easier . As you create @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Take the time that you need rather than trying to force a large project into a much shorter amount of time . Your environment when you work can help or stop your work , especially if you have a bunch of distractions around you . Find an environment which is quiet and comfortable and try putting your phone on ' do not disturb ' to stop a notification from letting you procrastinate . Figure out a reward to have once your task is complete . Whether it 's checking your social media or watching an episode of your favourite show , reward yourself once you 've completed what you planned . Instead of using the tasks as distractions to procrastinate make them motivation tools to help you do what you need to do . Do n't beat yourself up for what happened in the past . If you 've procrastinated something then forgive yourself and re-plan what you need to do to finish . Understanding why you 've put off something in the past will help you tackle @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ With perfectionism something is either perfect or failure .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pulled out of filming' does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the star's decision to stop filming, which is unrelated to the construction's properties.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'dropped out of' in a context that does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it imply a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'dropped out of the bidding war' is more about withdrawing from a situation rather than causing someone to move out of or preventing someone from an action.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It mentions 'ran out of recording tape', which is a different construction where 'out of' indicates a lack of something, not the transitive out of -ing construction. There is no causee or VP2[-ing] predicate involved, and it does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

As we mark 25 years since Kurt 's death , TOM HOWARD takes on the challenge of ranking every Nirvana song in order of greatness . Having done nothing but listen to and write about Nirvana songs for three really quite intense days in a row , I can say without any doubt in my mind that they are the greatest band of all time . It helps , of course , that they no longer exist , so they never had the chance to get shit and everything they ever did has taken on the status of a precious fossil . But given that Kurt 's songwriting just got better as he got older , and given how good the tracks are that he was tinkering around with in 1994 , for what would 've been the fourth Nirvana album , I reckon they had years of greatness ahead of them . It 's a tragedy that we 'll never know . But it 's a blessing to everyone out there who 's been touched by Kurt , Dave and Krist 's unique blend of power @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ around . So here is every track they ever did ( that we could find ) , ranked for your pleasure . Disclaimer : every tune from 2015 's ' Montage Of Heck : The Home Recordings ' has been discarded , apart from ' And I Love Her ' , because there 's only so much muck-raking Nirvana fans can handle . Enjoy ! A YouTube comment on this track from 2017 , from a man called Ryan Clark : " I love pretty much every sound Kurt Cobain has ever made with his mouth or guitar ( and even bass or drums ) . This , however , does not interest me in the least ... " Ryan Clark knows what he 's talking about . An instrumental cut from the Nirvana and The Screaming Trees doing Leadbelly sessions , which winds up sounding a helluva lot like Black Sabbath . An enjoyable stoner plod . Nirvana missed a trick by not making this high-pitched madness the secret track on ' Bleach ' ( apparently Sub Pop overlord Jonathan Poneman said no ) . It 's not that hard to imagine 20,000 fans in a stadium somewhere singing " Beans , beans , beans / Japhy ate some beans " right back at the band is it ? The name Japhy comes from the lead character of the Jack Kerouac book The Dharma Bums , which the song is based on . A half hour mashup of going to the toilet noises , vomiting on the floor noises , film audio , Beatles songs , Public Enemy samples , bird song and even a bit of KISS . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's a good insight into Kurt 's mind when he was a 20-year-old man , and deemed an important enough artefact for Brett Morgen to name his 2015 film about Kurt after it . Kurt Cobain playing the blues . A strange thing , but a nice thing . Hold on a minute , this sounds like ... Nirvana having fun ! They 're all ( apparently ) pissed on red wine , they 're covering KISS , Jason Everman is in the studio with the band for the only time ever and Krist is a allowed to sing a bit . Easily the coolest thing that 's ever happened to Gene Simmons . The big question : what is the first improv referred to in the title ? Well , given when and where ' The Other Improv ' was recorded ( January ' 93 , Brazil ) it was ' Gallons Of Rubbing Alcohol Flow @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ track on ' In Utero ' . They chose the right improv . This track 's legacy is the lyric " my milk is your shit " , which found its way onto the far superior ' Milk It ' once this tune was popped in the bin . " Help me , somebody help me / hold me , I 'm fucking hungry / help me , I 'm right here , who are you ? " One of the misconceptions of Kurt is that success destroyed him , but various accounts of the guy suggest he quite liked aspects of being famous , particularly the being rich bit . And when you listen to tracks like ' Help Me , I 'm Hungry ' you realise that success did n't destroy him , at all . He was a troubled soul way before he got famous . A pleasingly fat version of Led Zeppelin 's 1969 classic , played at a house party in 1987 ( otherwise @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's interesting that Kurt liked Led Zep , and you suspect he was disapproving of their extracurricular activities . But you can not argue with that riff . What a title ! The song : not so good . But here , on a track from Kurt 's 1985 ' Fecal Matter ' demos , you 'll find the origins of the riff that would later destroy souls in the form of ' Negative Creep ' , and an early example of Cobain singing about guns ( which , you 'll notice , he did a lot ) : " Protector of your gun , everyone plays with your gun . " As was perhaps made clearer than ever in the 2015 film Montage Of Heck , Kurt Cobain was obsessed with bodily functions . ' Mexican Seafood ' -- a deeply simple punky little number that appeared on Nirvana 's first ever demo -- is an early glimpse into that obsession . Here are three examples . 1 ) " Now I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ oatmeal pizza . " 2 ) Fill my toilet bowl full of a cloudy / puss , I feel the blood becoming chowder rust 3 ) " Stained dirt , vaseline , toe jam and booger / stomach acid worms that dance in sugared sludge . " Elsewhere , there 's a killer riff at the 1.15 mark that 's straight from the Jimmy Page school of guitar playing . One that began life on Kurt 's 1985 Fecal Matter demos , and he 's clearly already all over the sludgy sound that would dominate ' Bleach ' . Fun fact : this and ' Negative Creep ' are the only Nirvana songs that fade out , and ' Pen Cap Chew ' does so because the band ran out of recording tape when they were in the studio in 1988. No further evidence is required to prove that Nirvana 's first drummer , Aaron Burckhard , knew his way round a kit . Kurt probably never wrote another song as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and features the sort of references to flea markets and burlap that would pop up later in on " Swap Meet ' . Mrs Butterworth , by the way , is an American syrup brand . Seven and a half impromptu minutes of stream-of-consciousness weirdness over a Krist and Dave jam sesh recorded in January 1993 in Brazil , and plonked on the end of ' In Utero ' as a secret track . Lyrical highlights include " she 's only been five months late , even though we have n't had sex for a week " , somebody else already used the word aurora borealis " and " it did n't just singe the hair , it made it straight " . A version was recorded on New Year 's Day in 1991 -- Dave Grohl 's first time in the studio with Nirvana -- that 's never been released . But there 's a no-Grohl version ( in the seat : Chad Channing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' Blew ' EP sessions -- that 's well worth a listen , mostly for Kurt 's " hold it in your GUT " yelps in the chorus . This is a Hole song , that first came out in April 1993 as an acoustic b-side for the single ' Beautiful Son ' . A full-band version was then recorded in October 1993 during the sessions for Hole 's ' Live Through This ' album , but left off and used as a b-side for their 1995 single ' Violet ' . Then , in 1997 , Courtney Love told Melody Maker that ' Old Age ' was " partly someone else 's composition " but did n't say who . The following year someone gave Seattle newspaper The Stranger a cassette of Nirvana rehearsing it in 1991 . ARE YOU STILL FOLLOWING ? If not , here 's the tldr version : it 's a good tune but Hole do it better . Notable , mostly , for the drum beat delicately borrowed from ' My Sharona ' by The Knack . Otherwise it 's a grunge-by-numbers sludgeathon starring textbook FUCK YOU , PARENTS lyrics ( " In your eyes , I 'm not worth it " ) . But , credit where credit 's due , the chorus is fun , as Kurt screams " gimmie back my alcohol ! gimmie back my alcohol ! gimmie back my alcohol ! gimmie back my alcohol ! " over and over until someone passes him a damn beer . Early Nirvana @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with mixed results . Plodding sludge-rock with lyrics that are either meaningless ( " like Pepe Le Pew would say / hey , hey , hey ! -- then we clash ! ) or about castration ( " I got my didilly spayed " ) . You decide . Some sort of funk-metal mash-up from the early early early days that is both danceable and moshable , and fairly effortlessly morphs into a cover of Led Zeppelin 's 1969 monster ' Moby Dick ' . Weirdest Nirvana song ever ? A very early Kurt song , and you can hear that as he takes his voice into some unrecognisable places , and it 's kinda odd when he starts barking at the end . There is , in the drums and bass , a heavy Gang Of Four influence . Nirvana were often at their most fun when Kurt freed himself from the misery of his mind and decided @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . This Thunder And Roses cover is big dumb fun and the live versions ( for they are the only versions that exist ) are the sound of a band having a good time working out who they want to be . Nirvana opened their last ever show , in March 1994 in Munich , with a very unhappy sounding version of this Cars song . One month later Kurt killed himself , so the track has a poignancy it possibly does n't deserve . Maybe he was sending a message to someone , maybe he wasn't. Nirvana busted out this cover of Fang 's biggest tune five times in the summer of 1992 , most famously at their Reading Festival headline set . In September that same year he played guitar for Mudhoney when they covered it at a show in California . The Butthole Surfers and Metallica have covered it as well , but Nirvana 's is the best version obviously . A perfect example of Kurt 's highly observational early lyrics . The setting is a flea market ( " the Sunday swap meet is a battleground " ) , the stars of the show are a modestly entrepreneurial couple ( " they make their living off of arts and crafts / they kind with seashells driftwood and burlap " ) , and Cobain 's take on this humdrum existence is , naturally , peppered with disillusionment ( " keeps his cigarettes close to his heart / keeps her photographs close to her heart / keeps the bitterness close to the heart " ) . Over chunky metal riffy and light ' n ' loose drumming you can hear his determination to not go down a similar path . A suuuuuuuper heavy monster , and one of those Nirvana songs that everyone 's forgotten was actually released as a single , albeit a split single with The Jesus Lizard 's ' Puss ' on the other side . It rocks so hard . The end . Kurt 's favourite ever song , apparently , released in 1974 and written by Terry Jacks . Every Nirvana version features Kurt drumming and singing , and Dave Grohl on guitar . It 's disarming to hear KC sing such happy words . Played live a little bit during ' 91 and ' 92 ( Kurt 's " do you know how much money we have ? " intro for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Talk To Me ' is allegedly a tune that Kurt was tinkering with in his basement in March 1994 , just before he died . It could 've been a contender . Kurt takes on the death of Jesus Christ on a song that began life as a spiritual folk song called ' He Never Said A Mumblin ' ' word in the 1930s , and was then covered and renamed ' They Hung Him On A Cross ' by Cobain fave Leadbelly in 1945 . This tune came out of a joint session between Nirvana and grunge band Screaming Trees , who got together to call themselves The Jury and sing some Leadbelly songs because they all loved him so much . This is the only track that Kurt did solo . Here are two very different readings of this song . 1 ) It 's one of Kurt 's many pisstakes of macho men who shoot animals for fun and want their kids to be boys @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ found in THIS comic strip that Kurt once drew . 2 ) It 's a take on people 's reaction to his vegetarianism : " Fill me in on your new vision / wake me up with indecision / help me trust your mighty wisdom / yes I eat cow , I am not proud " . Could be both . Could be neither . God bless you , Kurt . AKA the one that Dave Grohl sings . He wrote it too , so really , this is the spark that lit the fire that would go on to fuel the Foo Fighters . Short and sweet and perfectly formed , it 's a little gem . One of the most endearing things about Kurt was how open he was about the bands he loved , and how often he covered their songs . Here he pays homage to a key influence for a ' 92 Wipers tribute album ' Eight Songs For Greg Sage And The Wipers ' . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the ' Incesticide ' press release , written by Kurt : " Christ . Let 's just throw together some heavy metal riffs in no particular order and give it a quirky name in homage to a couple of our favourite masturbatory Seventies rock acts . " He means Aerosmith and Led Zeppelin , and this is sound of early underdeveloped Nirvana . Still rocks though . Monstrous heaviness on one of the first tracks Dave Grohl played in the studio with Nirvana . He //obliterates// his kit , while Kurt 's throat sounds like it 's ripping itself to shreds as he screams his way through typically dark and doomy lyrics : " Sheared at the seams , Cheat on me. " ' Moist Vagina ' began life as a b-side to December 1993 's ' All Apologies ' single , and has slowly gathered cult status . Why ? Because it 's funny , basically , to hear Kurt howl " MARIJUANA ! " over and over again for two minutes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Kim Gordon on vocals , and added lyrics including " I particularly enjoy the circumference , I 've been sucking the warts of her anus " . At some point in the early 90s , while Nirvana were putting together ' Incesticide ' , Krist Novoselic gave Jack Endino ( ' Bleach ' producer ) a call and asked if he had a recording of ' Blandest ' . Endino said no because he had , at the band 's instruction , recorded over it with something better . So that plan was scrapped , but somehow a very weird and hissy version turned up on ' With The Lights Out ' boxset in 2004 . It 's lyrically intriguing , with a very obvious dig at someone Kurt 's not got a lot of time for : " I need you around / To remind me what not to become . " The result of a 1991 split single of Velvet Underground covers , on which Nirvana covered ' Here @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In Furs ' . They just tear it up in the studio and go home , and it sounds good . " I was trying to be Mr. Black Flag punk-rock guy , " said Kurt about the slightly political vibe to ' Downer ' . " I did n't know what I was talking about . " For example : " Slippery pessimist hypocrite master / Conservative communist apocalyptic bastard . " He 's got a point . A Beatles cover discovered in 2015 by director Brett Morgen as he went through Kurt 's stuff while doing research for his film Montage Of Heck . By performing it acoustically and , crucially , solo , Cobain creates an atmosphere of stifling isolation . Back when secret tracks on albums were still a thing , ' Endless , Nameless ' blew the ears off anyone who kept ' Nevermind ' running for 13 minutes and 51 seconds after ' Something In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and heavy impromptu jam that that occured after a bad take of ' Lithium ' . Raw frustration never sounded so good . Supposedly , when Kurt killed himself , a TV in the same room as him was showing re-runs of The Andy Griffith Show on loop . That same show is the inspiration for ' Floyd The Barber ' , except Kurt takes what is a very wholesome sitcom centred around a barber shop and turns it into a story about torture , murder and kidnapping . Quite simply : a song about wanking ( " I can feel it I can hold it I can rub it I can shape it / I can mold it I can cut it I can taste it I can spank it " . ) Charmingly , maybe , it was this track from Kurt 's early demos that convinced bassist Krist Novoselic to start a band with his pal . According to Kurt Cobain at MTV Unplugged , Nirvana 's version of this Vaselines tune was " a rendition of an old Christian song " . Which is sort of true , but the full story is that The Vaselines version is a parody of the Christian children 's hymn ' I 'll Be A Sunbeam ' . Kurt did probably know this clued up guy that he was It 's most famous for its appearance at MTV Unplugged , but it regularly featured in Nirvana sets from 1991-1994. @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' , this cover of a 1980 track by new wave champs Devo works perfectly as a Nirvana track , thanks to its perfect-for-Dave-Grohl tempo and lyrics that fit perfectly into Kurt 's world view : " Take a step outside the city , and turn around / take a look at what you are , it is revolting " . A dreamy Meat Puppets cover played at MTV Unplugged , featuring the well-timed lyric : " I do n't have to think , I only have to do it , the results are always perfect , but that 's old news " . Which , at the time , probably was n't far off how some people regarded Kurt 's talent . Originally released in 1987 by Glaswegian indie heroes The Vaselines on an EP called ' Son Of A Gun ' that Cobain once said was in his top five albums of all time , then lovingly covered by Nirvana in 1990 at a live session for Radio @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of charming singalong vibes : " The sun shines in the bedroom when we play , the raining always starts when you go away " . The first of the three Meat Puppets tunes Nirvana played at their 1993 MTV Unplugged show , most notable for how really quite sweet it is is to hear Kurt sing " an illustrative book about birds " in a really high pitched voice . It 's ' Polly ' , but fast , recorded for a Radio 1 session with Marc Goodier . It 's good , but not as good as the original . Next ! It begins with a simple guitar line that sounds very much like the Jaws theme , and becomes a straight up challenge to authority figures everywhere : " big cheese , make me " . Once again , Kurt 's anger is directed at powerful men : " Black is black straight back , need more enemies @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 47 . Stain ( 1989 ) Growing up , Kurt felt unwanted , unloved , disapproved of and worthless . All these things are encapsulated in ' Stain ' : " I 'm a stain , I 'm a stain , I 'm a stain , I 'm a stain . " It 's a sad fucking song . Drum roll please ! And then : the worst song on ' Nevermind ' . But still better than most songs ever written , so go figure . ' Stay Away ' began life as a song called ' Pay To Play ' that was a moan about the culture at the time of small bands having to shell out cash to play gigs. A slow and dirty sludge-fest , with lyrics inspired by a real-life story from Kurt 's hometown of Aberdeen about a family locking their children in an attic . He sings from the perspective of the kids , honing in on the bleakness : " Black windows of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ others just like me / Why do they not try to escape ? " Punky as fuck cover of the classic Wipers tune that first popped up in a 1990 Peel session , then sporadically appeared in live sets up until 1993 . ( BTW : the album it 's from -- 1980s ' Is This Real ? " -- was number 46 in Kurt 's famous list of his top 50 albums . ) There 's no way you can stop yourself dancing when the thrash kicks in at 1.30. Frances Farmer was a 30s film star who was demonised in the press and then institutionalised and given electro-shock therapy against her will , and Kurt saw similarities between that and how his wife Courtney Love was being treated in the press . So he wrote this magnificent song . In 1971 , David Bowie wrote ' The Man Who Sold The World @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ name . According to Kurt 's journals , that album is Kurt 's favourite Bowie album ( and his 45th favourite album of all time ) , so he did the decent thing and played a magical acoustic version at Nirvana 's November 1993 MTV Unplugged show . Maybe just maybe , Bowie and Cobain are jamming it together in heaven . Every now and then Kurt Cobain wrote lyrics that were so incredibly sad it 's hard to see them written down , but here we go anyway : " I 'm so tired I ca n't sleep / I 'm a liar and thief / Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea / I 'm anaemic royalty " , and then a little later on in the song : " I 'm on warm milk and laxatives / Cherry-flavored antacids . " Intense . The best of Nirvana 's Meat Puppets covers , thanks to Kurt barely being able to hit the high notes in the verse . Everybody join in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ diiiiiiiiiieeee ? " Released on 1989 's ' Blew ' EP , ' Been A Son ' stands out for being one of Kurt 's earliest statements about sex , gender and the patriarchy . " She should have died when she was born , she should have worn the crown of thorns , she should have been a son " he goes , supposedly inspired by his dad , Don , saying that he 'd have liked his daughter Kim to be born a boy . Only one rough and ready recording of ' Opinion ' exists , from a solo acoustic session Kurt did on Olympia WA KAOS FM on September 25 1990 . It 's a rant about sensationalist media ( " Congratulations you have won / it 's a years subscription of bad puns / and a make-shift story of concern / and to set it off before it burns " ) that , according to Kurt when interviewed immediately he 'd played it , sounds like ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Me ( 1993 ) A song with multiple interpretations . 1 ) It is , as Cobain frequently said , an anti-rape song written from the victim 's point of view . 2 ) It is also , as Cobain said less frequently but occasionally touched on , a song about his own feelings about the intensity of fame , which makes a lot of sense given that ' Rape Me ' rips off the opening chords of ' Smell Like Teen Spirit ' and features the lyrics " I 'm not the only one " sung over and over . As an aside , there 's also a dig at a still-unknown member of another band who Kurt thought was telling journalists nasty things about him and Courtney Love : " My favourite inside source , I 'll kiss your open sores " . Jonathan Poneman , founder of Sub Pop ( Nirvana 's first record label ) , reckons this is " one of Kurt 's greatest vocal performances " . And yeah , there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there 's an infectious wildness to the whole song , a Leadbelly cover that came out of a session with Screaming Trees where all they did was play Leadbelly songs . Another great example of Kurt sounding free and fun on someone else 's tune . People take this song way too seriously because , y'know , Kurt Cobain hated himself and wanted to die . But it was written at a time when Kurt felt jolly enough to mock the public perception of him , is really quite surreal ( key lyric : " most people do n't realize , that two large pieces of coral , painted brown and attached to his skull , with common wood screws can make a child look like a deer " ) and only got left off ' In Utero ' because the album 's heavy songs quota had already been filled . ' In Utero ' was , in fact , almost called ' I Hate Myself And I Want To Die ' , which would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1991 ) A paranoid ( " I smell her on you " ) and insecure ( " truth , covered in security " ) end-of-relationship anthem , inspired by Kurt 's break-up with Bikini Kill hero Tobi Vail . Easily the chirpiest sounding song on ' Nevermind ' . An ideal track for playing Kurt Cobain Lyrics Bingo . Reference to bad childhood ? Tick . Mention of shame ? Certainly . Hints of a bad relationship with his dad ? Oh yes . Fleeting mention of death . You bet ! The results are absolutely wicked , of course . First there 's : " I got so high I scratched til I bled . " Then there 's : " Love myself better than you , I know it 's wrong so what should I do ? " Followed by : " the black sheep got blackmailed again " . And finally : " what they hell am I trying to say ? " Classic Kurt @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ A song The Vaselines say they wrote about Scottish actress Molly Weir , which seems less innocent in Nirvana 's hands when you consider Kurt 's drug problems . " She said she 'd take me anywhere , as long as I stayed clean , " he sings optimistically . Kurt did n't much like the version that got released as a single in 1991 , so I guess we 'll have to disagree on that . The opening track of 92 's legendary b-sides album ' Incesticide ' isso simple , but oh so effective . The bassline churns and the drums pump while Kurt tackles loneliness ( " pick me , pick me yeah / Live alone , lone single ) and rejection ( " hit me , hit me yea / I 'm real good at hitting " ) in that uniquely oblique and half-glass-empty way of his . A moody acoustic tale of a rape victim escaping her attacker , told from the point of view the assailant . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ attack during which a young girl was tortured with a blowtorch . The line that brings tears to the eyes is , of course : " She caught me off my guard , amazes me the will of instinct " . Legend has it that the lyrics for ' Nevermind ' ' s quiet moment of haunting desolation have something to do with Kurt living under a bridge for a period of his life . It 's unclear if this is true or not . Legend also has it that he recorded the song lying flat on his back in the studio and playing an out of tune five-string acoustic guitar . Butch Vig told Rolling Stone about it in 1992 , so that one probably is true . Also known as ' Verse Chorus Verse ' , ' Sappy ' was popping up in Nirvana 's sets in the late ' 80s , but did n't get an official release until it appeared on a 1993 AIDS benefit album called @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ case with Kurt 's songs , a dark tale lurks within the poppy melodies , this time about a toxic romantic relationship : " And if you cut yourself you will think you 're happy , he 'll keep you in a jar , then you 'll make him happy " . ' You Know You 're Right ' was played live for the first time on October 1993 in Chicago , then polished off at Nirvana 's final ever recording session in January 1994 , with producer Robert Lang . This , then , is the clearest indication of where Nirvana would 've gone on their fourth album , had Kurt not died . It 's a moody thing , less angry but more brooding than anything on ' In Utero ' , with lyrics ( " Nothing really bothers her / she just wants to love herself " ) that seem directed at Courtney . If you were trying to write a Nirvana parody song , you might accidentally come up with this song 's chorus @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have never felt so well , paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaain " ) but actually , delivered like this , it bangs . It makes a lot of sense that Nirvana 's debut single was a cover . Firstly because Kurt Cobain was a bona fide music obsessive , always seeking new sounds to be inspired by . Secondly because , as the band 's career proved , they are the greatest covers band of all time ( discuss ! ) . This take on Dutch rock dudes Shocking Blue 's 1969 track is deliciously cheeky , psychy and trippy , and a whole load of fun . A song about Kurt 's then girlfriend Tracy Marander , and the lyric " I ca n't see you every night for free " is about her getting annoyed with him being a wannabe rock star and just bumming around her house watching TV all day . Sweet and simple , with melodies inspired by a marathon listening session of the album ' Meet The Beatles ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ perfection about stupid people who have bad jobs , no money , no friends , no lovelife and no hobbies and yet ... are happy . " I 'm not like them , but I can pretend , " Kurt sings . You wonder if he envied them a bit . Two versions of this exist , both recorded early in 1994 , just before Kurt died in April . This and ' You Know You 're Right are the clearest indications of where Kurt 's songwriting was heading . But whereas ' YKYR ' is sarcastic , bitter and broding , ' Do Re Mi ' is sweet and warm and Beatles-level melodic . It 's amazing . Another version was recorded at Kurt 's house on March 25 that year , with Nirvana guitarist Pat Smear and Hole guitarist Eric Erlandson , that 's never come out . And check out what Smear said about Kurt 's voice at the time , in a 2002 interview with nirvanaclub.com : " Kurt and I were suffering from bronchitis , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ trying to conserve it , he seemed to delight in pushing it . " Oh maaaaaan that sounds even more amazing . Nirvana started recording their debut album on Christmas Eve in 1988 , and ' Blew ' was the first track Kurt got his vocals right for . Easily one of the poppiest and best tracks on ' Bleach ' , and stayed on the band 's setlist right up to their last ever show in Munich on March 1 1994. Debuted at their Reading Festival headline slot in ' 92 , and introduced as a new song ' The Eagle Has Landed ' , ' Tourette 's ' is the heaviest song to make it onto a Nirvana album . It 's ' In Utero ' ' s thrashiest moment , full of indecipherable lyrics , furious screams and drums that go so hard they could burrow out a mine shaft . It just . Fucking . Pumps . There is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ French TV show Nulle Part Ailleurs in 1994 , two months before he died . In it , Kurt Cobain puts down his broken guitar and sings the second half of ' Drain You ' ( after it breaks right down and builds right up again ) without holding his instrument . It is , to this writer 's knowledge , the only example of him doing such a thing , and is therefore a rare treasure to tell all your friends about . On November 25 1991 at a venue in Amsterdam called the Paradiso , Kurt Cobain played this second single from ' Nevermind ' on an out of tune guitar and sang it like he hated it more than he 'd ever hated anything in his entire life , and it 's amazing . Watch it here . You are welcome . Crippling self-hate has never sounded so goddamn energetic : " I 'm a negative creep , a negative creep , a negative creep ... and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's possibly a Mudhoney ( who Kurt loved ) reference here , as the line " daddy 's little girl ai n't a girl no more " bears similarity to " sweet young thing ai n't sweet no more " ( from the track ' Sweet Young Thing ' ) . At its best played live , particularly here . Kid gets dropped off at his Grandparents ' house , kid does n't want to be there , kid eats dinner , kid rides his bike , kid stubs his toe , kid has some ice cream , kid falls asleep , kid wakes up in his mother 's arms , kid finishes the song with : " Grandma take me home , I wan na be alone " . This non-album single is a sad enough tale as it is , but when you consider that Kurt Cobain feeling rejected by his parents was one of the root causes of the misery that ended up killing him , it takes on an air of tragedy , all sung over the jauntiest @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Heart-Shaped Box ( 1993 ) A comeback single released in August 1993 , when Nirvana were the biggest band on earth , featuring insights into Kurt 's obsession with both body parts ( " throw down your umbilical noose so I can climb right back " ) and disease ( " I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black ) , and some deep obnoxious trademark sarcasm : " forever in debt to your priceless advice " . The original version of the song ( before Steve Albini 's cut got remixed by Scott Litt to go on ' In Utero ' ) featured a guitar solo that , according to bassist Krist Novoselic , sounded " like a fucking abortion hitting the floor " . Someone needs to leak that . The final track on Nirvana 's final album ( ' In Utero ' ) is comforting ( " in the sun I feel as one " ) , insulting ( " I wish I was like you , easily amused " ) and doom-laden @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ same time . For Nirvana 's 1993 MTV Unplugged show Kurt changed the lyric " all in all is all we are " to " all alone is all we are " , and the sadness in his voice is excruciating . This slice of heavy rocking squawking mayhem was almost called ' Nine Month Media Blackout ' and is every bit as grumpy , disillusioned , pissed off and belligerent as that title suggests . The best bit is when , out of nowhere Kurt just goes " all of a sudden my waters broke " . The most disturbing bit is , of course , when he just keeps repeating : " What is wrong with me ? " As with many Nirvana songs , ' Territorial Pissings ' has become a symbol of everything the band were about thanks to the live performances . Take thisclip from a 1991 chat show hosted by Jonathan Ross ( who , brilliantly , introduces the song as ' Lithium ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) . It 's primal , destructive , bratty , unforgiving , disobedient , short , sharp , sweet , genius . And Kurt 's lyrics are bang on : " just because you 're paranoid , do n't mean they 're not after you " . Look after yourselves . After ' Nevermind ' Nirvana became the biggest band in the world and Kurt Cobain the most talked about rock star on earth . His issues with heroin , mental health , parents and his new found status as an icon for a generation were written about constantly , and not always nicely , as was his marriage to Courtney Love and the birth of their daughter Frances Bean . For all these reasons and more , the follow-up to ' Nevermind , 1993 's ' In Utero ' , was the most hyped rock album for decades . It was hard and weird and heavy and petulant , and it took people years to realise it 's actually better than ' Nevermind ' . Crucially , ' Serve @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ album ever : " teenage angst has paid off well , and now I 'm bored and old " . Kurt was self-aware to a fault , and this is a prime example . It 's an added bonus that the track is an admirably obnoxious hard rock banger . Nirvana 's best cover version , and the finale of the November 1993 MTV Unplugged show that 's taken on a near-mythical status . Surrounded by candles , lilies and bandmates , Kurt creeps his funereal way through the Leadbelly song ' In The Pines ' before , three minutes in , unleashing a howl that Neil Young once described as " unearthly , like a werewolf , unbelievable " . Then he stops and sighs , and forces the last two words out of his tiny body . Spine-tingling , every single time . Massive massive massive massive . A giant wall of riffs , crushing anything dumb enough to get in their way . Those @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were not entirely welcome by the band : " He 's the one/ Who like all our pretty songs/ And he likes to sing along / And he likes to shoot his gun / But he do n't know what it means " . And a video for the single release featuring Kurt in a dress . This is quintessential Nirvana. A number once known as ' Perky Or Punky New Wave Number ' that clocks in at under two minutes , is about the masculine men Kurt found particularly objectionable , and features the magnificent lyric : " if you ever need anything please do n't hesitate to ask someone else first " . Rocks extremely hard . Kurt Cobain had an underrated sense of humour , and when he wrote songs like ' I Hate Myself And I Want To Die ' he was sort of dicking about . ' Milk It ' , though , is super dark . The riffs and drums bludgeon and bruise and the solo @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what happened to Kurt it 's hard to see the lyric " look on the bright side , suicide " as anything other than some kind of cry for help . Harrowing , but awesomely powerful . There is no better example in Nirvana 's discography of the quiet LOUD quiet songwriting method that Kurt Cobain was very honest about stealing from the Pixies . There 's also possibly no better example of why Kurt 's lyrics touch so many people . This song is a mockery of religion ( " I 'm so happy because today I found my friends , they 're in my head " ) . But it 's a song that also works very well as an antidote to pain , misery and heartbreak ( " I like it , I 'm not gon na crack / I miss you , I 'm not gon na crack / I love you , I 'm not gon na crack / I kill you , I 'm not gon na crack " ) . Plus : it fucking rips @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Featuring : the best intro to any Nirvana song , the best drumming on any Nirvana song , one of the best riffs on any Nirvana song ( written by the guy on the drums , Dave Grohl ) , Kurt 's greatest ever studio recorded screaming ( " go **35;1118;TOOLONG " ) and some really weird lyrics inspired by Patrick Suskind 's 1985 novel Perfume ( " I lie in the soil and fertilize mushrooms " ) . Perfection . A song Kurt wrote to express his dismay at feeling like the Seattle music scene was like being a bitchy cliquey teenager again ( " you 're in high school again " ) . " If I could have thrown Soundgarden 's name in I would have , " he once said . Excellently , the lyrics only have 15 words in them . Also excellently , it 's the song Nirvana played most times live ( 283 , if you must know ) . It 's the premium example of Nirvana doing a lot with a little . It is inarguable that ' Smells Like Teen Spirit ' is the Nirvana song that had the biggest impact , positive and negative , on the band , the world , the next 15 years of rock music and the mental health of the man who wrote it . Plus , it was responsible for one of the most exciting live TV moments ever seen . But given that by the time Kurt died he sort of hated it , and given that no hardcore Nirvana fans ever @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 98% of people reading this have heard it waaaaaaay too many times , let 's knock it off its perch . Oh well , whatever , nevermind . Perhaps the most interesting way to approach it in 2019 is to enjoy the myriad ways Kurt found to fuck it up when playing it live , like these deliberately bodged guitar parts and the ' More Than A Feeling ' intro at Reading Festival in 1992 , or this Jim Morrison crossed with Morrissey impression on Top Of The Pops in 1991 . These acts of self-sabotage are what made Kurt so preposterously cool . Although it was written at the same time as songs like ' Drain You ' , ' Lithium ' and ' Lounge Act , it makes sense that ' Aneurysm ' was left off ' Nevermind ' . For a start the intro is too long ( it takes 79 seconds for Kurt to kick in ) . But crucially , I think , it 's the song that is the bridge between ' Bleach ' and ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It has the simplicity of , say , ' School ' , but Kurt 's words have the sensitivity that he only really developed after Nirvana 's debut album . It exists in a bubble and is all the more powerful for it . The sound is simple , edgy , dark , poppy , punky , troubled , dark , angry and fuelled by the unholy power that Kurt , Krist and Dave were able to conjure when they played together . The lyrics , however you choose to interpret them , cover all of Kurt 's primary concerns at the time : his relationship with Tobi Vail appears ( " love you so much it makes me sick " ) , as do his preoccupations with fucking ( " come on over and do the twist / overdo it and have a fit " ) , smack ( " come on over and shoot the shit " ) , masturbation ( " beat me out of me " ) or , if you look at " beat me out of me " a different way , self-loathing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ so hard it hurts . Then there are the live versions . Watch this from 1993 in Rio , when he 's wearing a dress and he 's got brown hair and a goatee and an air raid siren goes off when the song breaks down at 3.14 . Or this from 1991 in Seattle for the awesome intensity of the intro . But most of all watch this from 1991 in Amsterdam because it 's the greatest band of all time at their peak , and it 'll keep them pumping straight to your heart . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks a VP2[-ing] predicate and does not exhibit either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a situation where Prime Ministers are compelled to leave Downing Street, which does not align with the defined properties of the construction.

Last week , Mrs May made the announcement in the hope of rally much-needed support for her Brexit deal ahead of an April 12 deadline set by theEuropean Union . The tactic appeared to work , with hardline Brexiteers Jacob Rees-Mogg , Boris Johnson and Iain Duncan Smith all performing a turnaround and suggesting they would back it . ButTheresa May 's withdrawal agreement was defeated for a third time in the House of Commons last month , leading her to ask Brussels for a further extension to Article 50 , and enter into talks with Jeremy Corbyn in the hope of striking aBrexitcompromise - a move that has infuriated MPs throughout Westminster . Why have Prime Ministers been forced out of Downing Street over Europe ? Mrs Thatcher supported British membership of the European Economic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ should be limited to ensure free trade and effective competition . Her opposition to further European integration came tduring a 1988 speech in Bruges when she raged : " We have not successfully rolled back the frontiers of the state in Britain , only to see them re-imposed at a European level , with a European super-state exercising a new dominance from Brussels . " Geoffrey Howe quit as Foreign Secretary in July 1989 and in his resignation speech , attacked Mrs Thatcher 's openly dismissive attitude to the government 's proposal for a new European currency competing against existing currencies . Michael Heseltine then mounted a Tory Party leadership challenge and although she was victorious , Mrs Thatcher was four votes short of the required 15 percent majority . She declared her intention to " fight on and fight to win " the second ballot , but consultation with her Cabinet persuaded her to withdraw and after one last memorable Commons speech , she left Downing Street in tears . Several Prime Ministers have resigned following deep divides over European issues ( Image : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to keep Britain " at the very heart of Europe " and claimed to have won " game , set and match for Britain " -- by negotiating the Social Chapter and Single Currency opt-outs from the Maastricht Treaty . But closer European integration was met with with furious opposition from Eurosceptic in the Conservative Party as the Government tried to ratify the Maastricht Treaty . In July 1993 , several Tories voted against the Treaty , resulting in a crunching defeat for the Government . Sir John won a second vote , but the damage had been done . Margaret Thatcher left Downing Street in tears after her resignation ( Image : GETTY ) But the arguments over Europe did n't stop as he tried to force an increase in the Qualified Majority needed for voting in the EU , which in effect would have made it easier for Britain in partnership with other countries to block federalist measures .

Mr Cameron was re-elected in May 2015 following another majority in Parliament and a decisive win by the Conservative Party . But trouble soon followed - the rise of Ukip and mounting pressure from Eurosceptics led him to promise a referendum on the UK 's membership of the EU .

He said : " Conservative Prime Ministers always considered the EU 's common market an attractive proposition but never felt comfortable in an integrated political and economic system that associates the national interest with the European interest and actively discourages any form exceptionality .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'lift more people out of paying' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'paying' is part of a prepositional phrase modifying 'people', and the overall structure does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The new tax year starts on today and in general taxpayers will have more money in their pocket after increases to allowances come into force . Those selling shares or buy-to-let properties , however , will be hit hard . Increases to the tax-free personal allowance announced in last year 's Budget come into effect , alongside a wealth of other proposals designed to allow us to keep more of our hard-earned cash . But there are also a range of " stealth " increases that could catch out unsuspecting taxpayers . The new tax year begins today , April 6 . Here is Telegraph Money 's guide to the changes . The tax-free personal allowance will increase from ? 11,850 to ? 12,500 and the higher-rate allowance will increase from ? 46,350 to ? 50,000 . This means that basic-rate taxpayers will save ? 130 a year , while higher-rate taxpayers will save up to ? 860 . This is part of the Conservative Party 's long-held commitment to lift more people out of paying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ George Osborne 's days as Chancellor of the Exchequer . Patricia Mock , of consultancy Deloitte , said : " Taxpayers will make a saving , but this is a costly move for the Exchequer -- estimated to cost ? 2.8bn in 2019-20 . " However , Chancellor Philip Hammond was criticised at the time of the announcement for sneaking through a parallel change to National Insurance thresholds . These are lower than the personal allowance and effectively wipe out almost half the saving for wealthy taxpayers , costing them ? 340 . Scotland and Wales will also see similar changes to income tax thresholds . The amount dying homeowners can pass on to their descendants is also set to increase with a boost to the " residence nil-rate band " on inheritance tax ( IHT ) . The basic amount anyone can pass on tax-free is ? 325,000 , but the additional rate applying to property passed to a direct descendant will increase from ? 125,000 to ? 150,000 , taking the tax-free allowance to ? 475,000 . Passing on assets @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ make use of both allowances , meaning the amount which can be passed on by a married couple will be ? 950,000 . A further increase next year will bring this amount to ? 1m . Nimesh Shah , of accountants Blick Rothenberg , pointed out that while the new allowances are welcome , the main allowance has not increased in a decade . That fact , combined with soaring house prices , means more estates than ever are being drawn into the IHT net . The Treasury 's take from death duty is expected to exceed ? 7bn by 2023 . The lifetime allowance on pension contributions will increase from ? 1.03m to ? 1.05m . This is the limit on the amount retirees can amass in a pension without incurring additional taxes . Anything above this level can be taxed at a rate of 55pc upon withdrawal . The allowance increases each year in line with inflation , but was drastically cut throughout George Osborne 's time of office from its previous high of ? 1.8m . Meanwhile , the amount @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ total of 8pc under the Government 's auto-enrolment scheme . The increase means employers must now pay in 3pc of a saver 's salary while the individual must pay in 5pc . The Government claims this has created an additional eight million pension savers . On April 6 the next stage of the phased removal of mortgage interest relief will come into effect . Landlords used to be able to claim the interest paid on their mortgages as a business expense to reduce their tax bill . Now they will only be able to claim a quarter of this amount as tax deductible ahead of the complete removal of the relief next year . Mr Hammond is also cracking down on Airbnb-style holiday lets . Previously , those letting out a property via a room-sharing service were able to claim an annual income of ? 7,000 under rent-a-room relief . This loophole is being removed with the relief only applying on spare rooms which are rented out while the owner still lives in the property . Although capital gains tax ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ direction -- increasing from ? 11,700 to ? 12,000 -- the Treasury has cast its eye on a relief popular among investors . Entrepeneur 's Relief gives a CGT break to those who sell shares in an unlisted company , provided they own at least 5pc of the shares and up to a lifetime value of ? 10m . Ms Mock said the ? 2.7bn cost to the Treasury could have prompted the changes due to come into force next week . The holding period to qualify for the relief is being raised from 12 months to 24 . Ms Mock warned this could mean some lose the tax break or can only access it up to certain levels of investment . This will also be the first tax year that claims can be made for investors ' relief which , in a similar way , gives CGT breaks to those who sell shares in unlisted firms . However , while the former is aimed at company directors , the latter is geared to encourage outside investment in firms . There is no minimum shareholding to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at least three years . As the relief was introduced in 2016 , this is the first tax year when it can be used . Finally , the Junior Isa limit will increase from ? 4,260 to ? 4,368 . All other Isa limits stay the same .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It involves a transitive verb 'get' with an NP object 'real satisfaction', but it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of seeing the end result' does not involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

6th April 2019 Lisa Hatton explains why she has such a healthy appetite for sourcing a perfect selection of gorgeous interiors items alongside the delicious deli offerings at Hattons Hattons opened its doors in June 2016 . We put it down to fate as it 's on the site of what was previously one of my favourite shops , Gardener & Cook , on The Pantiles . I was shopping there three years ago when I was told the sad news that after years of trading the people who ran it were closing the doors on their beautiful shop and moving on to pastures new . My husband Daniel and I had always loved The Pantiles and so we both decided that the Gardener & Cook premises becoming available could mean we now had an opportunity to do something that would combine both of our passions , food and homewares . My husband Daniel is a chef who has worked for Gordon Ramsay and was awarded a Michelin star when he worked at Thackerays , and I used to manage @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Tunbridge Wells . It started off trading in Calverley Road and eventually its owners Katy and Hilary expanded to larger premises on Mount Pleasant Road , where it traded for a number of years before going solely online . It was the most wonderful shop to be part of and led me to going on buying trips as well as working with a fantastic team and helping the very large client base the owners had built up over the years . When the opportunity came up for Daniel and I to run our own business we decided upon a blend of both food and homes at Hattons because I was fully aware after my time spent at Maison that if families are all out shopping together not everyone wants to be there ! I 've witnessed plenty of tapping fingers on tables and awkward silences so the idea behind the Hattons emporium was to try and please everyone by offering food , coffee , great wine and homewares all under the same roof . Who would n't love that ? It 's certainly proved to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shop for a variety of additional events such as private dinners and wine tasting , thus proving how versatile retail spaces can be . Here is the lowdown on my world of interiors : We think it 's really important to try and support local artisans if we can . They are key and can make shopping really interesting and not so mainstream . When we go to trade fairs there are obviously big companies that we use but we also love to support small businesses . Their products are unique and have been designed by them , so their passion is clear to see . It also appeals that the merchandise is produced on a much smaller scale so you do n't tend to see it everywhere , and it is amazing to be part of their journey . Look at one room at a time and finish it , as this will not only give you satisfaction but the motivation to move onto the next Look at what you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ around and experiment with colour The feeling of space and clean lines can be created even in the smallest areas with clever storage , whether it 's an empty wall space to fix hooks or pegs , or a bench with built-in storage . Shelves can be used along with storage baskets which can add texture as well as being useful for keeping areas tidy . Sustainability : people are becoming much more aware of the impact of products on the environment . We live in a throwaway society , so recycling and upcycling will be key Texture : mixed metals and natural materials such as wool , wood and earthenware will play a strong part in stylish schemes alongside understated and tactile accessories Contrast : the use of soft warm neutrals mixed up with dark colours and the layering of different textiles and textures to add interest to interiors will also be a strong trend I love to shop in many places , including Darling & Wild , The White Company , Anna Poulson , Le Petit Jardin @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ endless ! When time permits we love to go to Lewes and Brighton to just have a stroll . There are so many wonderful shops around and it is great to be able to wander in and out , see what you are buying and talk to people , whether that 's a small independent , a market stall or larger store . All of them help make our towns interesting , diverse and great places to visit . I have always been interested in interiors since I was a little girl , from redesigning my bedroom , and moving things around ! I enjoyed art at school and that was when my creative side started to evolve . At the age of 18 I started a job at Laura Ashley , and that was it ! I loved advising customers on all aspects of interiors , from helping with room schemes to picking out wallpaper , curtains , furniture and paint colours . I get real satisfaction out of seeing the end result . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It describes a situation where a child self-harms to avoid going to school, but it does not involve a transitive verb with an NP object and a VP2[-ing] predicate that would fit the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'get out of going to school' is more about avoidance rather than the specific construction in question.

Until you 've seen your child self-harm to get out of going to school then you 've got no idea ( Getty ) The start of September is that time when social media is flooded with photos of uniformed children smiling , getting ready to receive an education provided by the state . Except that , for a growing number of children in the UK , school is not only unable to cater for their needs and learning style , but is set up in a way that is actively sabotaging their ability to engage , leaving them anxious , isolated and with low self-esteem . The number of children in the UK who are home schooledhas more than doubled in the last four years , and the reason is not because of an increase in covert child abuse or radicalisation -- the apparent fears of those pushing for registration -- but largely because so many kids are being failed by the current state-schooling model . Rather than create a moral panic around the motives of home schoolers , it 's time the government acknowledges its failings in the education system and puts effort -- @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tell you what 's true . You can form your own view . From 15p ? 0.18$0.18USD 0.27 a day , more exclusives , analysis and extras . Many home-schooled children out there are " neurodivergent " , disabled , gender diverse or have strong cultural or religious convictions that stand them apart from their peers . Not only do many of these children find they are unable to engage in meaningful education in mainstream school because their needs are n't being met , but they become a magnet for bullies . From the child with Down 's syndrome who ca n't attend a school trip for " health and safety reasons " to the transgender children bunking off because of physical and verbal abuse the school ca n't control , many children end up in a home-school environment not because of a philosophical choice , but because their desperate parents simply want what 's best for them , and this one-size-fits-all education system can not provide it .

His fixation on specific , specialist topics means he struggles to engage in activities that do n't spike his interest , and his anxiety and difficulty reading social cues can often land him in hot water with his peers . We 've withdrawn him periodically to help him re-set mentally , catch up academically and to work on the social and emotional skills often neglected in a busy , mainstream school environment . When your child is struggling at school your own emotional @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ parents have legal responsibility to provide an education , it has been possible to simply withdraw your child from school without having to justify your reasons , giving you the space mentally and physically to focus on their needs . But in New Zealand -- and Australia -- where the state has legal responsibility for schooling , you need to apply for an exemption to home school , a lengthy and time-consuming process . Even when you have an exemption you are never completely free from the box-ticking activities of the state , with Ministry of Education representatives able to visit your home to see if they 're happy with the education being provided . Home-schooling parents live in the shadow of the knowledge that educators can force them to return their child to an unsuitable institution at any time without providing additional support . Registering home-schooled children in the UK is the first step down a similar path of control . The updated guidance around home schooling , released this week includes a flow chart to show a local authority 's options if they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ home -- all routes end in obtaining a care order . If you parent an average , neurotypical and physically-abled child , alternative schooling probably sounds like " woo " . I know phrases like " school refusal " and " high anxiety " smack of " helicopter parenting " , but until you 've seen your child self-harm to get out of going to school then you 've got no idea . With that in mind , you 've got to ask yourself , why would you be happy about changes that could force you to place your kids into an unsafe environment , under the guise of government concern over their wellbeing ? Support free-thinking journalism and subscribe to Independent Minds If this government were genuinely concerned about our children , they would n't be asking what home schoolers are up to , they would be asking why there are so many .

They would be ploughing more money into the education , health and care plan process , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ plans once they 've been agreed upon .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It involves a transitive verb 'got' with an NP object 'some sort of joy', but it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of watching me play at the World Cup' does not involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it fit the semantic requirements of the construction.

But , boy , did little Bella cheer when Aaron Mooy scored his penalty for Huddersfield in their 4-1 defeat to Leicester on Saturday . One arm raised , Bella , from Dallas , Texas , jumped in delight before getting a cuddle from her dad , Scott . " We never get penalties , " said Mooy . " She gave us that luck today . I am glad she was happy that I scored . " Bella met midfielder Mooy for the first time on Friday at Huddersfield 's Canalside training ground , just over nine months after she saw him on TV at home in the US after waking up in her father 's arms on the sofa .

It is fair to assume there are not many replica Huddersfield Town kits among the Dallas Cowboys and Dallas Mavericks gear in the city 's sports shops . Bella has one , though . Her story was posted on Instagram and the power of social media did the rest . " It got blasted all over the world and found its way into Mr Mooy 's inbox , " said Scott .

Bella will stay in Yorkshire for a couple of days before returning home , but the memories will linger . She walked out with the bald midfielder before kick-off , holding his hand tightly as they strode across the turf , with other Huddersfield players offering her reassurances that everything was OK .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks a clear NP subject performing an action on an NP object with a VP2[-ing] predicate that would induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it discusses a general topic about reducing stress related to decluttering without the specific grammatical structure required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

DEVOTED dad Steve Hall is getting on his bike to back daughter Naomi , who suffers from alopecia and works to raise money , awareness and support to help fellow sufferers . Mr Hall , 55 , who runs Halls fish and chip shop in Bedale is planning to do the 150 mile coast to coast bike ride in one day on June 10 .

" After wearing a wig and eye lashes for years Naomi says it was n't until last year that she felt confident enough to go out without them . After starting work for Alopecia UK , she has now joined two other sufferers to share their stories in a documentary called Shedding which has been nominated for a charity film award .

Shares 1 . You 've launched a call to action to the security industry to stop investing in ' detect and protect ' solutions and prioritise transformation . What does this mean and why is this a passion of yours ? ' Detect and protect ' technologies , such as data loss prevention systems , anti-virus solutions , sandboxing etc. are not sophisticated enough to identify highly evasive zero-day attacks . These attacks are constantly evolving and becoming ever more sophisticated . As digitally pure data-on-demand becomes the new holy grail , organisations need to focus on finding ways to transform digital content so that it is completely threat-free rather than " best endeavours " threat-free . I became particularly passionate about the need to shift away from ' detect and protect ' technologies after an ' interesting experience ' a few years back . At that time , I was running one of the largest global @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ invited to go and explain to our largest customer -- a prestigious USA Fortune 30 brand -- why they had suffered multiple cyber breaches over a 3-month period , despite us re-assuring them that they had the best detection capability that money could buy . After listening carefully to my explanation that our cybersecurity detection-based technologies offered no absolute guarantees around breaches , a particularly eloquent board member simply said , " Dan , this best endeavour approach to detection gives us , as a business , unquantifiable business risk -- that 's unacceptable to our shareholders . " That statement haunted me , but it was a light-bulb moment when I realised that detection-based cyber defences do n't , and never will , cut-it . The penny dropped for me that society needs to move beyond detection . 2 . What are the drawbacks to ' detect and protect ' technologies ? There are several drawbacks to ' detect and protect ' technologies . Most notably , the bad guys are better at attacking than organisations are at defending -- and detect and protect ' technologies @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ constantly evolving , and cybercriminals are making a career out of finding new flaws and tactics for attack , so it 's becoming increasingly more difficult to predict their next target . ' Detect and protect ' solutions also require significant overhead to monitor the data that is moving through the environment . According to research , the annual cost to maintain detect-to-protect endpoint security for a 2,000-person organisation is more than ? 12M . In addition to the ridiculous cost to maintain , the most intelligent solutions will either not detect the most sophisticated threats or be so reactive that it results in an unsustainable number of alerts and false positives -- all distracting security professionals from dealing with the main issue of bad actors already bypassing the defence system . 3 . How do transformation solutions better protect organisations from cyber threats in content , such as zero-day exploits and ransomware ? The only way that organisations can truly defend against content threats , such as zero-day exploits , is by preventing the attack code from even entering the organisation . Currently detect and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to identify malicious elements within content based on evidence of previously seen malware , and , if the content is deemed safe , allow it to enter . However , with detection solutions catching at best 95 per cent of cyberattacks , it means that at least 5 per cent are still making it onto the organisation 's network . Content threat removal ( CTR ) uses a transformational approach to the problem . Digital content such as OfficeX documents , PDFs and images is intercepted at the boundary and is prevented from proceeding . This content is then transformed . During transformation , the business information is extracted from the content and the original file is discarded . After verifying its integrity this content is then used to create a completely new file that is allowed to cross the boundary . Transforming content in this way ensures that none of the original file structure or hidden data , code or malware is ever allowed to cross the boundary . So , the user receives a completely new document , which is identical to the naked eye , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it takes to scan or sandbox and with the certainty that the content is threat-free . 4 . Will we see cyber security companies abandoning existing detect and protect solutions in search of new transformation technologies ? There is still a role for detection solutions , but the industry can no longer present them as an end in themselves . Instead , collaboration between transformation and detection vendors will be critical to delivering a flawless , unfragmented cybersecurity defence . In practice , for example , the collaboration between prevention and detection solutions will be key to mitigating the insider threat . The recent case of Chinese engineers exfiltrating confidential information regarding its turbines from General Electric shows the potential of transformation technology : had they used CTR , the information that they concealed in pictures of sunsets , using steganography , would have been stripped out at the border of the organisation and so they would have only received the sunset picture ( without the concealed information ) when they tried to access it outside the organisation 's network . The role of detection technologies in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ attempts to exfiltrate hidden information , they have to try and get it out of the organisation in plain sight . This is then much easier for a data loss prevention technology to identify . Partnerships between prevention and detection cybersecurity vendors will be key . That 's why we 've partnered with McAfee , securing content sent through their McAfee Web gateway . Working as part of a connected security ecosystem -- combining diverse expertise and solutions for stronger protection -- we are making it impossible for hackers to break through . Indeed , the integration of these technologies shows what can be achieved when security experts join forces . 5 . What do you believe are the barriers holding companies back from shifting away from ' detect and protect ' technologies ? ( i.e. profits ) For too long , cybersecurity companies have relied on the status quo of ' detect and protect ' technologies -- becoming resigned to just improving the pass-rate of ' detect and protect ' rather than eliminating threats entirely . Despite their inefficacy , one of the major barriers to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the long-established acceptance of the industry-standard " detect and protect " cybersecurity strategy , in favour of solutions that guarantee to defeat 100 per cent of content threats . To achieve this , a significant mindset shift amongst ' detect and protect ' vendors , as well as a significant investment in R&D for novel solutions will be required . 6 . What changes does the industry need to make ? It 's time for organisations to challenge the " it 's when , not if " mantra when it comes to cyberthreats , which is leading the cyber security industry and businesses alike to lower their expectations for defending against cyberattacks . Cyber security companies have resigned themselves to improving the pass-rate of " detect and protect " rather than eliminating threats entirely . To truly defend against cyberattacks , organisations need to do away with the industry-standard " detect and protect " cybersecurity strategy and leverage CTR solutions that guarantee to defeat 100 per cent of content threats , rather than the " best endeavours " approach that is typical across the cyber security industry @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ They need to stand up and join in this call to action , demanding that the cyber security industry stop trying to shore up fallible detection-based solutions and design solutions that match the evolving capabilities of modern hackers . Embracing defences that transform rather than detect is the best way to meet the need for digitally pure content and answer the charge made by the aforementioned board member , addressing once and for all the " unacceptable " and " unquantifiable business risk " of cyberattacks |

Many patients with kidney failure spend years on dialysis waiting for a transplant . Judith Cole talks to two men who found the experience debilitating and hears how they are now engaged in pioneering research by Queen 's University into the psychological benefits the arts can bring . William Johnston ( 52 ) lives with his wife Carla in Bangor . He says : I was born with a kidney defect and had a successful operation when I was three . I did a degree and went to London to work - I was very active and loved playing rugby . It was n't until I went @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was wrong - I was very anaemic and it turned out that my kidneys had been failing for years . At the age of 28 , in 1995 , I was diagnosed with end stage renal failure . I came back to Northern Ireland because I did n't want to be on dialysis in London by myself . I had continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis ( CAPD ) and a transplant came in very quickly for me , within six months . Unfortunately , it rejected two years later and it was discovered that it had riddled my body with antibodies which made it difficult for me to be matched with another potential transplant . Creative outlet : William Johnston at his computer When I came back home I met a young lady called Carla who would later become my wife . So you could say that if my kidneys had n't failed I would n't have come back and I would n't have met Carla . There 's a plus side to everything . With CAPD , the dialysis machine is connected to a tube @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . I continued with this , during every night , for two years . But your abdomen can only take so much dialysis and in 1999 , I had to change to hospital haemodialysis which involved attending the unit three times a week for over four hours each time . Instead of a tube connecting the machine to your abdomen , it is connected to one of the large veins in the neck or in the groin . Between 2001 and 2005 my family and friends were all tested to be a live kidney donor . Both my mother and my twin brother were incompatible . After all these disappointments , I thought ' I ca n't go on with this regime at the dialysis unit , I 'll try and take control of the haemodialysis myself ' . So I was trained to do haemodialysis myself at home . It was another eight years before another call for a transplant came in for me . Seventeen years on dialysis drove me mad - the time went so slowly . I was desperate for some way to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ my life but I thought I would give it a go . I could let the world know what I was feeling . I wrote a poem called The False Dawn about being called for a transplant four times . You go there with such high expectations , you think you 're going to have freedom , and it turns out not to be your kidney . Over the years I wrote poems about every experience that I remembered from dialysis . I put them in a catalogue called The Loss of Hope Can Drive a Man Insane , which was taken from a line in one of my favourite films , The Shawshank Redemption . Dialysis was a bit like being in prison , like the characters in the film . You ca n't escape from it and you 're restricted in what you can eat and drink . When I started home haemodialysis I could decide what time I did it . From 2009-2010 , while connected to the machine , I started to write a play called Gift of Donation - or the GOD @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ discovered that when I 'd connect myself up on dialysis I 'd lose myself for the next four hours in the play . I had dialysis every other day , so the day between sessions I 'd walk the dog and think about how I could take that scene forward , and I found myself actually looking forward to getting back on dialysis again to write some more . The play took me about nine months to do . It was great because it was n't wasted time and I got something tangible out of it . That 's why I think the arts has so much potential in this situation - patients can rediscover creative skills and get something productive out of sitting for all those hours on dialysis machines . It gives you back some self-esteem . Through those many years of dialysis I was crying out for some counselling , some kind of psychological resource . In 2014 , I received my second gift of life and the transplant has been successful . A transplant is not a cure - it 's a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there is a chance you might need another transplant in the future . I think that you probably need as much support when you 're post-transplant as when you are on dialysis and again , this is where the arts come in - they help people to rekindle what they enjoyed doing in the past . I became involved with the NI Kidney Patient Association ( NIKPA ) , basically because I wanted to do something when I was on dialysis . Dr Helen Noble , from Queen 's University , was part of NIKPA as well and one day I told her about my poetry - she said it could be used to develop something . This was how the Renal Arts Group ( RAG ) was started , in 2016 . My GOD play was performed at the Brian Friel Theatre at Queen 's in 2017 and last year three of my poems were read at an Arts in Health symposium at QUB . Two years ago , I was appointed to a part-time advocacy position with Kidney Care UK in NI - and now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ arts administrator . It is exciting to see the arts really developing now and I 'd love to see it recognised throughout the renal community . " Christopher Johnston ( 56 ) lives in Moira . He says : My experience of kidney disease , dialysis and waiting for a transplant was tortuous . It really affected me psychologically and that 's why I 'm so passionate now about getting help for people who are on the same journey . I was very fit and healthy until my mid-30s . I did n't even own a car until I was 32 as I walked and cycled everywhere . I did a lot of outdoor pursuits - canoeing , kayaking and swimming . Christopher Johnston I first noticed symptoms during a tour of the west coast of the States . I did n't feel well but I thought it was just jetlag . I was in Disneyland and was on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sweating and my skin was yellow . One night I went to a restaurant which had one of those all you can eat menus . There was free Coca-Cola and , although I would never have chosen Coca-Cola , I drank a litre of it and asked for more . I was thirsty all the time and on the way home on the plane my nose was bleeding and I just knew that something was wrong . As soon as I got home , my GP sent me straight to A&E and after some tests they told me that my kidneys were n't working and that I had to start haemodialysis right away . A line was inserted into my neck to enable me to be connected to the dialysis machine . That was the beginning of my dialysis journey - and it was traumatic . I had to attend the unit three times a week , for four hours each time - you could go either in the mornings , afternoons or evenings and I was given the evening slot , from 8pm to midnight , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ get up after their dialysis session and walk out , but I felt like I 'd been hit by a bus every time . I had been working in training development but after a while I was made redundant because I just was n't able to do a full day 's work . I was exhausted . I was n't sleeping , I had crazy dreams . After about nine months of haemodialysis , a nurse told me that there was another type of dialysis called continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis ( CAPD ) , which could be done at home . I jumped at the chance . It involved another operation , to take out the tube in my neck and insert one into my stomach . With CAPD you are attached to the machine for 10 hours every day . I used it overnight - it started at about 9pm and would be finished at 7am or 8am . The advantage was I could travel - I took the machine , which was 25kg and like a heavy suitcase , to New York and to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , all the while waiting for a transplant - which was very difficult . I had three potential organs which turned out not to be matches . Then in 2005 , we found out that my brother was a match and after the transplant operation I bought one of those round-the-world tickets and went to see friends in Australia and New Zealand . During the whole process - and after my transplant - I found myself longing to speak to someone . It really affected me . One minute you 're fit and active , you have a job and a life , and the next it 's all gone . The clinical care is excellent but I found the psychological care non-existent . That 's why I got involved in the Renal Arts Group and raising awareness to get more psychological help for kidney patients . I heard that William Johnston and Helen Noble had started the group and I thought it was a brilliant idea . It 's exactly what a dialysis unit needs - people engaged in painting , drawing and writing poetry . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to help you cope . Now I 'm working with the group as an ' expert by experience ' - I talk to people about my experience of dialysis and tell them what I think would help . My hope is that this is rolled out to all the units as it would be an excellent resource . " Dr Helen Noble , senior lecturer , Queen 's University Belfast , writes : A diagnosis of end stage kidney disease ( ESRD ) is devastating and life-changing . When kidney function is lost , many patients require dialysis , a difficult and demanding treatment which impacts profoundly on quality of life and requires regular visits to the hospital , surgical procedures and strict dietary and fluid regimes . Depression and anxiety can lead to additional symptoms and subsequent worsening of quality of life . Academics at Queen 's University Belfast have been working closely with people with renal disease and renal clinicians to develop a programme of research with the ultimate aim of improving the physical and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ A more recent collaboration has been between academics , patients and carers , clinicians and artists in the form of a Renal Arts Group ( RAG ) , initially funded by Kidney Care UK . Co-chaired by Dr Helen Noble and William Johnston -- who has had a kidney transplant -- the group is novel and heralds an innovative approach . Many members have artistic interests including music , poetry , photography and dance . Arts and health has the potential to benefit service users with ESKD and the forming of the Renal Arts Group has provided the opportunity for development of multi-disciplinary education and research .

Publishers and brands have one true mission : connecting with their audiences in a significant and lasting way . Engaged audiences become returning readers , the cost of their readership ( if done correctly ) is significantly lower than acquiring new readers , and their data-rich profiles are a more valuable prospect for advertisers . Today , publishers are most likely to find those audiences on mobile devices . However , with access to a boundless array of apps and only a handful they use regularly , mobile users can be hard to reach . In recent years , publishers have forged a direct channel that drives readers back to a native or progressive web app -- push notifications . Here is the catch . Too many notifications frustrate subscribers , burning out their engagement and pushing them to unsubscribing and losing faith in the brand . Audiences disappear , and readership is lost . So , publishers should opt for conservative strategies , sending fewer messages to keep their readers , right ? Well , no . There is a phenomenon in push notifications that reader engagement will naturally @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ longer they are subscribed , audiences always drift toward unsubscribing or becoming inactive . On average , the click-through rate ( CTR ) decreases by a factor 0.4 from week one to week five . If the CTR is 1% in week one , by week five it will be at 0.4% . This is a constant average across every publisher , measured in Marfeel 's latest study into the value of push notifications . This means publishers need to find the delicate balance between burning their readers by overloading them and leaving value on the table by ensuring not to drive clicks back to their content before the reader becomes less engaged . A recent study designed to measure the value of automated messages and identify effective push strategies resulted in the development of a new metric : subscriber lifetime value ( SLTV ) . This metric measures the overall increase in readership created by push notifications , for every subscriber . By combining the natural reduction in engagement with core metrics , publishers can see the net value @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , objective approach to push notifications , understanding the value created by an entire strategy , for the first time . Conducted by Marfeel , the study examined more than five million push notifications and the push strategies adopted by 123 publishers that use the company 's automated push notification feature . According to the study , the KPIs most commonly used to measure push notification strategies are : * Click-through rate ( CTR ) , the percentage of users who click on a notification * Clicks per user ( CPU ) , the average rate of clicks per 100 users * Unsubscribe rate ( USR ) , the percentage of users who opt out of receiving notifications * Acceptance Rate , the percentage of users who accept invitations to receive notifications These traditional metrics measure the relative success of specific messages -- but offer no method for comparing the results of various strategies . To understand the performance of multiple strategies -- and the total value of an overall push notification strategy -- the researchers developed an original metric that factors in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's interaction with all push notifications across all strategies . This newly-created subscriber lifetime value metric is the average total traffic generated by push notifications to a user based on specific strategies . For example , tactics might include recommending articles based on those previously read , the creative images and messages used in notifications , and the choice of how many notifications to send per user , and when to deliver them . By analysing extensive publisher data , the study isolated the factors that maximise SLTV , then measured the overall value created from various strategies . The results reveal conclusively that SLTV is the essential metric for comparing the impact of multiple push strategies . Highlights of the study , detailed in a white paper , include the finding that optimising the number of messages sent per user , combined with increasing intensity for the most engaged users , increased SLTV by 40% when compared to sending a single message per day . Identifying the best time of day for sending selected messages resulted in the second highest @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ approximately 20% , and notifications featuring images increased SLTV by approximately 10% . The final conclusion drawn from the study was that the least engaged readers are most likely to click on notifications containing links to the most popular article of the day . The more engaged readers , on the other hand , are more inclined to read relatively more obscure articles . Any push notification strategy has the potential to increase revenue in the short term , but careless overuse of push can damage brands by eroding the user 's trust . Without a solid strategy , it 's dangerously easy to alienate your audience with accidental spam . However , with the right strategy , it is possible to generate push notifications that do n't lose their luster over time . Fortunately , publishers are now well-equipped to deliver real value with authentically engaging push notifications . " Great push is all about inspiring delight -- facilitating a relevant and valuable app experience for your users and securing a prized place in their daily routines , " VC blogger Andrew @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ value about your service and tailor your messages to their unique needs and interests . You 'll see push engagement skyrocket , and your users transform into rabid advocates .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The verb 'make' is transitive, but the NP object 'money' does not function as a causee, and the sentence does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a general activity of making money through trading, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Councils have been issued with new guidance to help them negotiate financial contributions from housing developers when their work puts pressure on schools . New advice from the Department for Education today sets out how local authorities can best seek funding both for construction of more school space and suitable land from developers . Town halls are under rising pressure to create more school places as a population bulge makes its way from primary and secondary . Secondary schools will have to cater for more than 400,000 extra pupils by 2027 . Councils have the power to demand a financial or land contribution for schools from housing developers under the community infrastructure levy , which replaced old section 106 payments . However , the DfE is worried that the way councils ask for the funding is " inconsistent " across the country . Schools Week has previously revealed problems with coordination of new buildings when contributions are collected by district councils , which often act as the planning authority , rather than county councils , which are in charge @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the academies minister Lord Agnew said it was " vital " that developers contribute to the cost of the school places they create . Schools can find themselves " under pressure from new housing developments , and where they do it 's right that appropriate developers support these costs " , he added . The new guidance will , ministers hope , ensure local authorities can clearly state the situation with school places in the area , so the " right contributions " from developers are secured during the planning process , said the DfE . In some instances , public funding for the school buildings might be used but " only to the minimum extent necessary " , the DfE warned . In other cases , developers might build the schools themselves rather than contributing money to councils . New schools will need to be built at the right time so places are available to pupils who need them , the department added . Land for schools is also often an afterthought . In 2016 , a lack of suitable land delayed the opening @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ year . A ? 6 million scheme announced in 2017 to build 100,000 new homes through " garden villages " schemes in areas of need did not specify how much money or land would be given over to schools . Luke Tryl , director of New Schools Network , which supports the establishment of new free schools , said he hoped the new guidance would " minimise the amount of time schools planned as part of housing developments spend in the pre-opening phase , while land acquisition and access are negotiated " . When large housing developments are going through planning , it 's essential local councils consider what infrastructure is needed ( ie schools , surgeries ) . Too often , existing amenities are expected to cope with an increased number of users until essential infrastructure is tacked on as an afterthought ( or not ) . It 's also essential that developers contribute to this infrastructure . They 're making enormous profits from house building . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'get out of paying suppliers' involves an NP object ('suppliers') but does not clearly involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the context suggests a general avoidance rather than a construction-specific meaning.

Those with long memories in this industry might well be tempted to skip over the news just as they would be inclined to do if a new report popped up , promising another set of reforms . It 's fair to say , most with any experience of the way construction works have been here before . But the scale of the letter-writing campaign says that , possibly , the government is getting an idea of just what a problem subcontractors , suppliers and smaller firms in construction face getting paid . Carillion has chivvied them into action , no doubt , and for that reason alone Dowden 's letter is better late than never . Will a firm be given a warning that it faces being barred if it does n't buck up its ideas ? Further still , will it be put in special measures until it improves ? What would that actually entail ? Nobody really knows Building has heard many horror stories of how firms get out of paying suppliers when they 're supposed to -- from changing the address on where to send the invoice to problems with internal systems @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is playing up so the payment run 's been put back a month " . And on it goes . One insider told this magazine recently of the goings-on at a well-known contractor . Staff , he said , were having to answer phone calls and reel off a new list of excuses . While it 's difficult to prove that this is actually happening -- short of listening in to these conversations -- it 's not too difficult to imagine either . That 's almost as damning as the excuses being trotted out . Dowden , or certainly officials at the Cabinet Office , have realised that this ca n't go on . In his letter , he tells firms he 'll be keeping tabs on them thanks to the payment data they are now required to publish every six months . He tells firms that those who can not prove they pay their supply chain within 60 days are at risk of being barred from government contracts . " Suppliers who are unable to demonstrate that they have systems in place that are effective @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their supply chain may be excluded from bidding , " he writes . " Many of you are due to publish your next report by the end of July and I expect to see you meeting the required standards and making improvements if necessary . " And he adds that he 's not planning to go away on this one , warning : " My officials will keep me updated on your progress . " But what happens if that progress is not very good ? What then ? For many , the carrot approach only works with a stick . The question is how heavy a stick to wield ? The acid test will come when a firm flunks the new required standards and is found to be hopelessly not up to scratch on paying its suppliers in a " fair and responsible " manner . Some will want a statement , a sign that the government is really serious about getting to grips with one of the longstanding scourges of the industry . And for them that means barring a firm from winning work @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ given a warning that it faces being barred if it does n't buck up its ideas ? Further still , will it be put in special measures until it improves ? What would that actually entail ? Nobody one really knows and as ever the devil is in the detail . In his letter , Dowden tells recipients that as signatories to " the Prompt Payment Code , you have committed to paying your subcontractors on other contracts within a maximum of 60 days ( this is met by paying 95% of invoices within this period ) and to work towards 30-day payment terms as the norm " . Most people probably wo n't be too surprised at the news , given that contractors still operate on wafer-thin margins and the industry 's biggest contractor , Balfour Beatty , talks about margins in excess of 2% as some sort of a triumph . And here lies the rub . While the payment record of this industry is poor , the margins firms are expected to accept encourage this sort of behaviour . There is talk of ring-fencing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and , the theory goes , payment malpractice would be cut out at a stroke . There is a huge amount of structural change required in construction -- and fair payment , margins and attracting a more diverse workforce are right at the top of the industry 's collective in-tray . But simply blaming margins for everything is not good enough -- and nor should it mean the government does n't at least attempt to do something about poor payment practice . After all , that is what a government is supposed to do : lead . Let 's hope it does exactly that on this issue , so that Dowden 's letter does n't become another " been here before " moment . |

" Secondly , my sincerest apologies to anyone who travelled all that way to watch me perform I 'm genuinely upset that you 've wasted your time and money and that burns me more than you 'd know .

' " The security targeted them ( despite no one fitting the description ) , were physically aggressive when handling them and there 's been no effort from the festival to actually deal and address the problem . " Adding that " this is the kind of soul draining shit black people got ta deal with all the fucking time , " Stormzy continued to express his disgust with Snowbombing before highlighting some of the questions and comments made by festival-goers .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'dragged out of hiding' does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a physical action of removing someone from a place, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

He now faces being jailed in the US for computer hacking , and the threat of legal action in Sweden for alleged rape . Mr Marchan took the Mail on a tour of the embassy -- and explained how he finally lost patience with his squalid and spiteful ' tenant ' . The soiled underpants incident occurred in January -- and when told to clean it up , Assange is said to have replied : ' I wo n't clean it . I wo n't ! ' The embassy 's cleaner had to do it instead .

Unable to exercise outside , Assange caused mayhem by skateboarding down the central polished wooden corridor and playing football like a rowdy teenager . Ecuador 's UK Ambassador Jaime Marchan , 72 , said : ' When Assange wanted to be unpleasant he put excrement on the walls and underwear with excrement in the lavatory .

Assange 's cat was removed because he could n't be bothered to look after it , though the ambassador added : ' It could go in every room -- we were suspicious it may carry a device ... to spy on us . ' Mr Marchan is full of praise for how Foreign Office minister Sir Alan Duncan helped the embassy remove its graceless tenant . ' Without Sir Alan , we could not possibly have done this .

' GUY ADAMS : Telling their stories , the women who say Julian Assange tricked them into sex without protection within just days of each other by Guy Adams for the Daily Mail Back in August 2010 , a newly-famous Julian Assange touched down in Sweden on a ten-day visit to promote and raise money for his suddenly modish non-profit outfit , Wikileaks . At 39 , the eccentric former computer hacker might not have been exactly young . But he was very much free and single , having recently started to discover the romantic perks that his rock-star status could afford . Weeks earlier , Assange had collaborated with a number of news outlets to publish the first tranche of more than 400,000 leaked military and diplomatic cables , detailing years ' worth of US operations in Afghanistan and Iraq . The coup had turned this socially-awkward Australian into a sort of a folk hero among liberals , rendering him irresistible to a certain demographic of Left-leaning young women . And Assange seemed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a Wikileaks seminar in Sweden in 2010 while Miss W ( foreground with glasses ) sits in the audience On his very first night in Stockholm , he attempted to seduce the English girlfriend of an American journalist who 'd been invited to dine with Wikileaks activists at a Lebanese restaurant called Beirut . Over the course of the ensuing seven days , Assange would enjoy two further romantic forays , seducing a pair of young women in turn , both of whom would walk into police stations days later to accuse him of sex crimes . Each of the two , Miss A and Miss W complained that initially consensual encounters with him had suddenly turned darker , ending in them being forced into unprotected sex in circumstances they found uncomfortable . Their testimony set in train a series of events that would see Assange spend the next two years in British courts , fighting extradition to Sweden where he was wanted for questioning , followed by another seven hiding inside London 's Ecuadorean Embassy . Assange , who has always protested his innocence @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ radical feminists ' who had ' got into a tizzy ' . So who are they and what were the disputed events that spawned their now-notorious complaints ? Miss A is an experienced political activist and equal rights campaigner . In her early 30s at the time of the alleged incidents , she was involved in inviting Assange to attend a seminar entitled ' How Truth is the First Victim of War ' and hosted by the Christian wing of Sweden 's Social Democratic party . Planning to be out of town visiting family when he arrived mid-week she generously offered him use of her flat in Sodermalm , Stockholm . Assange , who often dossed down on the sofas of supporters , accepted . On Friday August 13 , she returned to town and went out for dinner with Assange , before returning to the one-bedroom property where they were both to spend the night before the seminar . Her statement to police alleges they then sat down to drink tea . It was at this point he began stroking her legs . They embraced , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Miss A 's statement claims she initially attempted to put clothes back on , because the situation was ' going too quickly ' for her liking . But she says that Assange ' ripped them off again ' , breaking a necklace in the process . After deciding to consent to sex , she then attempted to reach for a condom . However Assange held her arms and pinned her legs to prevent her grabbing it , the statement claims . Eventually , he agreed to wear protection . However during the ensuing moments , she felt him ' do something ' to it with his hands . It was only afterwards that she realised it had been torn . She believes deliberately . Despite her experience , Assange 's host allowed him to remain in her flat for much of the remainder of his visit . Some nights , she decamped to a friend 's . On others , she slept on a mattress . She alleged to police that Assange continued to make advances towards her every day . On Wednesday August 18 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ waist down , and rubbed himself against her . Julian Assange arrives at Westminster Magistrates ' Court after being arrested and forcibly removed from the Ecuadorian Embassy earlier this week The arrest warrant subsequently prepared by Swedish police lists three specific allegations against Assange , which contributed to a charge of sexual assault against Miss A. The first is of ' unlawful coercion ' -- meaning he took a consensual encounter too far . The second is he deliberately broke a condom during sex after she insisted he use one . Thirdly , he was accused of having ' deliberately molested her ' days later . Assange has of course never allowed himself to face these allegations in a Swedish court , and the crime has a five-year statute of limitations which passed in 2015 , meaning he 's unlikely to face trial for it . However , writing about Miss A 's claims several years later , he declared their night together was ' unremarkable ' . He added ' she seemed totally happy ' at a party the next day .

That day was also when Miss W came into the picture , meeting the Wikileaks founder at the aforementioned seminar . She would later tell police how she had become fascinated with Assange , a man she considered ' brave and admirable ' . She spent weeks reading about him , before apparently obtaining a press pass to the event as a photographer . Dressing to catch his eye , she chose a shocking-pink jumper and sat in the front row . Assange , dressed in grey jeans and a suit jacket , spoke for 90 minutes . What then unfolded has been compared to the meeting of a groupie and a pop icon . Waiting outside the venue to meet her idol , Miss W approached a member of his entourage , who invited her to join them for lunch at a local eatery called Bistro Boheme . There she struck up conversation with Assange who invited her to spend the afternoon with him . After a short walk , she told police @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the film did not appear to be on Assange 's mind : he 'd instead spent his time kissing her and putting his hands inside her clothing . Walking in a park afterwards , he 's said to have declared ' you are very attractive to me ' . When they parted , the duo swapped numbers . They did n't speak again until Monday , 48 hours later , when Assange agreed to meet her in the evening and suggested they spend the night at her flat . Miss W wanted to go to a hotel , but he insisted on coming to her home , in the city of Enkoping a 50-mile train ride away . Star-struck , she bought his ? 10 train ticket because he had no cash ( and said he did n't want to use his credit card in case his movement was being tracked ) .

However Assange did not want to wear a condom , causing her to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The Wikileaks founder had then lost interest , she alleged , and fallen asleep . However , during the night , they had both woken up and had consensual sex when ' he agreed unwillingly to use a condom ' . Early the next morning , things took an ugly turn : Miss W says she went to buy breakfast before returning to bed and falling asleep beside Assange . She had awoken to find him on top of her , having sex . And when she asked if he was wearing a condom , he said no . Miss W 's police statement claimed she responded ' You better not have HIV ' and he answered : ' Of course not . ' In Sweden , having sex with an unconscious , drunk or sleeping person can lead to a rape conviction punishable by up to six years in prison .

However like many a sexual predator , Assange of course did n't call .

In the course of their conversation , the duo realised to their anger that they had both fallen victim to Assange 's charm , within a few days of each other . After a brief discussion , they agreed to contact Assange and asked him to take a test for STDs . However , for reasons that are unclear , he refused . Miss W seemed especially anxious about the possibility of HIV and pregnancy . Miss A recalled her being deeply upset .

The restoration work on the palace is set to commence from the middle of next year ( Source : Getty ) Michael Searles The ? 4bn multiyear restoration project on the Houses of Parliament is running behind schedule and could be delayed for several years , the Financial Times claim . A third of MPs and hundreds of administrative staff are due to move out of during autumn so that work be completed on creating a temporary debating chamber and offices , while work on the palace is carried during the mid 2020s . But so far temporary accommodation for those due to move is not ready or has not been found , as it has to be within the parliamentary estate for security reasons , the FT says , citing those working on the renovations . This could result in restoration work being delayed and for every year the works are held up , the cost will increase by a reported ? 100m .

Those residing in the House of Commons are due to move to the former department for health headquarters in Richmond House for around six years , while peers are set to relocate to the QEII Centre opposite Westminster abbey .

A spokesman for the Restoration and Renewal programme said : " This programme of works is already progressing , and we expect it to conclude in the mid-2020s so that the main restoration and renewal of the Palace of Westminster can progress " . |

Levenshulme and Ancoats have been named two of the best places to live in the entire UK - and this is what the judges had to say about them . The two districts are the only places in Manchester to make the Sunday Times Best Places to Live list for 2019 , while Ramsbottom and Altrincham were the only entries from the other nine Greater Manchester boroughs . Judges looked at factors including employment , schools , culture , community spirit and shops to compile the list . Levenshulme is the only south Manchester suburb to make the cut this year . Chorlton - which was included last year - and Didsbury are both absent . The judges had this take on Levenshulme : " In a few short years , " Levy " has gone from fake Adidas tracksuits and knock-off trainers to hand-knitted jumpers and home-baked vegan buns sold in the independent market . " The area 's burgeoning food and drink scene caught their eye , as did the South Station project , which will see the once empty building transformed into a cycle cafe and ' community hangout ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ owners spoke to the M.E.N to praise the area 's increasing number of community initiatives , and its character . Levenshulme Station ( Image : manchester evening news ) At the time Dean Brocklehurst , 35 , who runs the Tallyrand with pal Tom Hughes , 32 , said : " Levenshulme has become gentrified a bit - but in a positive way . It 's a real melting pot of cultures - you can wake up in the morning and have an English breakfast , an authentic Turkish shawarma for lunch and a focaccia for tea . " Mary Cox , the sales manager at Edward Mellor , who also co-runs the Klondyke Club said : " We are Lev - we do n't want to become anything else , we are doing our own thing here , and so far it 's working out perfectly .

In a few short years , " Levy " has gone from fake Adidas tracksuits and knock-off trainers to hand-knitted jumpers and home-baked vegan buns sold in the independent market . At first glance , the high street , aka the polluted A6 trunk road , resembles any other fly-posted urban thoroughfare , but there 's an artsy vibe driven by relatively cheap Victorian and Edwardian houses , and a pioneering spirit of sociability ; it 's where Ancoats hipsters might go when they grow up and need three bedrooms . One of the first colonisers was Trove , a cafe and bakery that has encouraged hangers-on and other hip hangouts : the Klondyke Club , which hosts an annual beer , gin and food festival ; the Station Hop , a bottle shop and taproom serving craft beer ; and the Talleyrand bar . Inevitably , a microbrewery and a food hall are on the way . The long-shuttered Victorian Levenshulme South railway station is being turned into a community hangout @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ add a cycle cafe , co-working space and urban gardens to the mix . For now , Levy 's mothership is Inspire , a converted church offering yoga and maths and English tuition for kids . Schools were a problem until Levenshulme High School for Girls was rated outstanding by Ofsted in 2016 ; the new co-ed Manchester Enterprise Academy is contributing further to Levenshulme 's kudos . There are two good primaries , St Mary 's RC and Alma Park . Best address : The Rushford Park conservation area . Why we love it : Good old-fashioned gentrification is alive and kicking . Judges chose it above other residential areas of the city centre , including Castlefield and the Green Quarter , which was somewhat brutally described as a ' multistorey crash pad with a few microbreweries ' . Cutting Room Square in Ancoats ( Image : Joel Goodman ) Ancoats was deemed to have : " A happy combination of accessible location , stylish accommodation and a formidable reputation for food and drink , " that gave it the edge . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Pictured is Rudy 's Neapolitan Pizza ( Image : Rudy 's Neapolitan pizza ) The area has become renowned for its independent food and drink over the past few years , a place where diners can find everything from award winning pizza at Rudy 's , to authentic Vietnamese cuisine at Vnam to fine dining at Mana . It 's quite possible , given the argumentative nature of many Mancunians -- and the constant churn of Manchester 's regeneration -- that the debate over the best place to live in the city centre will rage until the River Irwell freezes over . Northern Quarter ? It 's still got it after all these years , but it 's in danger of being overrun by rubbernecking Airbnbers . Castlefield ? It has cleaned up its canals , and has authentic cobbled streets , but there 's concern over the crime rate . The Green Quarter ?

Underpinning it all is that unquenchable city ( and united ) pride at creating something new and uber-cool out of nothing but a load of old buildings and an eye for exposed brick . The big question is , what will happen next ? Has the number of apartments , many of which are in converted historic industrial buildings , reached critical mass ? Can its attractive standalone identity survive as Ancoats expands its borders ? And does every hotspot , ultimately , have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on . The older you get , the more it may centre on education . Although there are two decent primaries ( the Free School , in New Islington , is outstanding and St Anne 's RC primary is good ) , people do n't move to Ancoats for the Ofsted ratings . Best address : Cutting Room Square and Royal Mills . Why we love it Do believe the hype : it 's definitely cool . Ramsbottom meanwhile , was praised for not having ' a chain store in sight ' on the high street , as well as its bars , cafes and restaurants , including Levaner , Baratxuri , Hungry Duck , Tea Atelier , Grind and Tamp . Baratxuri in Ramsbottom Judges said : " The friendly , ungentrified bar at the Irwell Works Brewery could well be our favourite : here is proof that the town 's growing appeal has n't dented its down-to-earth Lancastrian warmth . " The World Black Pudding Throwing Championships even gets a mention in The Sunday Times ' glowing review @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ list , a year after it was deemed to be the best place in the region to live , in " honour of the high street 's transformation from zombie to Mancunian zeitgeist " , as the judges put it .

It says : " Roomy family houses and a handy spot at the end of the tram line , half an hour from Manchester Deansgate -- help make WA14 a destination in its own right .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'stripping the joy out of eating' involves 'eating' as a gerund, but the construction does not involve a causee NP object that participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a general effect on the joy of eating, not a specific action caused by a causer on a causee.

FROM the role of gut bacteria in depression to how plant science can deliver food security in the face of climate change , and the ' Angry Chef ' taking on the food myths and identity politics surrounding what we eat , this year 's Edinburgh Science Festival is putting nutrition front and centre of the debate . The rise in veganism , calls for meat taxes , and a push to tackle obesity with state-led interventions such as sugar levies on soft drinks and restrictions on junk food offers have thrust our diet into the spotlight like never before . Like the rest of Europe , Scotland 's high streets have experienced an exponential rise in the number of fast food outlets since the 1970s . Where takeaways might once have been limited to a fish supper or portion of chips , consumers today can take their pick round-the-clock from kebabs , burgers , pizzas , curries , burritos and foot-long sandwiches . Ready meals high in salt , sugar and trans-fats have replaced home cooking as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ awash with cheap crisps , cakes , confectionary and junk food that the Scottish Government - fresh from its long legal fight on minimum alcohol pricing - has set about becoming the first country in the world to ban multi-buy promotions on such items . The transformation in our food environment is not only impacting waistlines but lifespans , with research in the Lancet last week reporting that unhealthy diets are now responsible for an estimated 11 million deaths globally each year - overtaking smoking for the first time . Major studies this year have backed huge increases in the recommended fibre intake at a time when most Scots still fall well short of achieving their ' five-a-day ' . The World Health Organisation , meanwhile , warned that a global shift from meat-based to plant-based diets ( red meat threshold around one Sirloin steak per fortnight ) would be vital not only for human wellbeing , but preventing an environmental catastrophe . Now the cutting edge new science of ' psychobiotics ' - how gut bacteria affect the brain - suggests that what we eat might @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to age-related degeneration and autism . Evidence is already mounting that people with a lower diversity of bacteria in their intestinal tract are more prone to weight gain , but the psychological impact is only beginning to be explored . Nothing is more important to the composition of our gut bacteria - or the " microbiome " - than what we eat . A varied diet rich in fibre , fruits , vegetables , nuts , and oily fish - a so-called Mediterranean diet - appears to deliver an optimum mix , but the modern Scottish diet is far from this ideal . Genetics play only a minor role in microbiome composition - possibly as little as five per cent - while other factors such as the decline in breastfeeding rates and the increase in caesarean deliveries have both contributed to a decline in microbiome diversity among recent generations less likely to have been exposed to their mother 's bacteria during birth or infancy . The task for those studying psychobiotics is unravelling the mechanism by which gut bacteria affect brain health , and proving that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over recent decades and rising rates of mental health problems . Professor John Cryan , chair of anatomy and neuroscience at UniversityCollege Cork and one of the world 's leading experts in ' psychobiotics ' , first became interested in the field around ten years ago when he was involved in experiments that showed stressed animals experienced changes in their microbiome . He said : " It got us thinking that that could maybe be relevant to how they actually deal with stress , so we did a whole slew of experiments and proved that indeed that is the case . " Then we wanted to see if we could reverse the changes , or at least dampen down the stress response , by targeting microbes in the gut . In animal experiments we would target them with specific bacterial strains or ' prebiotics ' - the fibres and sugars which good bacteria use to grow and thrive . It worked . " More recently we moved into human studies and we were able at some level to replicate the findings . " The team @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ susceptible to stress , and have found evidence that middle-aged mice fed prebiotics to boost their microbiome also experience reductions in neural inflammation in the brain typically associated with ageing . Reduced microbial diversity has repeatedly been found in the guts of patients suffering depression , and a recent Belgian study found that certain important bacteria were missing altogether . This was not explained by antidepressants , which are known to disrupt gut flora over long term use . " We need to go a bit further to show whether all depressed people have this , or how we tackle it , " said Cryan . " It 's very hard to get causation yet . There definitely is a diet-mental health relationship , I think that 's pretty much accepted , the question is how it works . " Our thinking is that it creates vulnerabilities in the microbiome that interferes with gut-brain signalling . " In obesity science , researchers have already been probing whether the guts of overweight people can be ' reprogrammed ' with bacteria extracted from the stools of slim people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ certain microbes associated with calorie burning . Now a pilot study into autism in the US is testing whether similar faecal transplants from healthy children can alleviate some of the behavioural symptoms associated with the condition . " It 's highly emotive , " said Cryan . " But what we find is when you mess with the microbiome , you can mess with the social brain and social behaviour .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'stripping the joy out of eating' involves 'eating' as a gerund, but the construction lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and it does not clearly induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a result or effect rather than a causative action with a causee.

FROM the role of gut bacteria in depression to how plant science can deliver food security in the face of climate change , and the ' Angry Chef ' taking on the food myths and identity politics surrounding what we eat , this year 's Edinburgh Science Festival is putting nutrition front and centre of the debate . The rise in veganism , calls for meat taxes , and a push to tackle obesity with state-led interventions such as sugar levies on soft drinks and restrictions on junk food offers have thrust our diet into the spotlight like never before . Like the rest of Europe , Scotland 's high streets have experienced an exponential rise in the number of fast food outlets since the 1970s . Where takeaways might once have been limited to a fish supper or portion of chips , consumers today can take their pick round-the-clock from kebabs , burgers , pizzas , curries , burritos and foot-long sandwiches . Ready meals high in salt , sugar and trans-fats have replaced home cooking as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ awash with cheap crisps , cakes , confectionary and junk food that the Scottish Government - fresh from its long legal fight on minimum alcohol pricing - has set about becoming the first country in the world to ban multi-buy promotions on such items . The transformation in our food environment is not only impacting waistlines but lifespans , with research in the Lancet last week reporting that unhealthy diets are now responsible for an estimated 11 million deaths globally each year - overtaking smoking for the first time . Major studies this year have backed huge increases in the recommended fibre intake at a time when most Scots still fall well short of achieving their ' five-a-day ' . The World Health Organisation , meanwhile , warned that a global shift from meat-based to plant-based diets ( red meat threshold around one Sirloin steak per fortnight ) would be vital not only for human wellbeing , but preventing an environmental catastrophe . Now the cutting edge new science of ' psychobiotics ' - how gut bacteria affect the brain - suggests that what we eat might @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to age-related degeneration and autism . Evidence is already mounting that people with a lower diversity of bacteria in their intestinal tract are more prone to weight gain , but the psychological impact is only beginning to be explored . Nothing is more important to the composition of our gut bacteria - or the " microbiome " - than what we eat . A varied diet rich in fibre , fruits , vegetables , nuts , and oily fish - a so-called Mediterranean diet - appears to deliver an optimum mix , but the modern Scottish diet is far from this ideal . Genetics play only a minor role in microbiome composition - possibly as little as five per cent - while other factors such as the decline in breastfeeding rates and the increase in caesarean deliveries have both contributed to a decline in microbiome diversity among recent generations less likely to have been exposed to their mother 's bacteria during birth or infancy . The task for those studying psychobiotics is unravelling the mechanism by which gut bacteria affect brain health , and proving that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over recent decades and rising rates of mental health problems . Professor John Cryan , chair of anatomy and neuroscience at UniversityCollege Cork and one of the world 's leading experts in ' psychobiotics ' , first became interested in the field around ten years ago when he was involved in experiments that showed stressed animals experienced changes in their microbiome . He said : " It got us thinking that that could maybe be relevant to how they actually deal with stress , so we did a whole slew of experiments and proved that indeed that is the case . " Then we wanted to see if we could reverse the changes , or at least dampen down the stress response , by targeting microbes in the gut . In animal experiments we would target them with specific bacterial strains or ' prebiotics ' - the fibres and sugars which good bacteria use to grow and thrive . It worked . " More recently we moved into human studies and we were able at some level to replicate the findings . " The team @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ susceptible to stress , and have found evidence that middle-aged mice fed prebiotics to boost their microbiome also experience reductions in neural inflammation in the brain typically associated with ageing . Reduced microbial diversity has repeatedly been found in the guts of patients suffering depression , and a recent Belgian study found that certain important bacteria were missing altogether . This was not explained by antidepressants , which are known to disrupt gut flora over long term use . " We need to go a bit further to show whether all depressed people have this , or how we tackle it , " said Cryan . " It 's very hard to get causation yet . There definitely is a diet-mental health relationship , I think that 's pretty much accepted , the question is how it works . " Our thinking is that it creates vulnerabilities in the microbiome that interferes with gut-brain signalling . " In obesity science , researchers have already been probing whether the guts of overweight people can be ' reprogrammed ' with bacteria extracted from the stools of slim people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ certain microbes associated with calorie burning . Now a pilot study into autism in the US is testing whether similar faecal transplants from healthy children can alleviate some of the behavioural symptoms associated with the condition . " It 's highly emotive , " said Cryan . " But what we find is when you mess with the microbiome , you can mess with the social brain and social behaviour . So there is hope - but it 's just hope at the moment - that microbiome research might one day be useful in helping with some of the symptoms of autism . " There 's one pilot study using FMT faecal microbiota transplantation in autism . It 's a small study in Arizona of about 20 people , published in the journal Microbiome . But it worked .

At the start Game of Thrones the Targaryens are shown as a weak and defeated family , but at one point they were considered to be one of the most powerful houses in Westeros . Before Robert Baratheon claimed the throne , Aerys II was the King of the Seven Kingdoms and he was part of a dynasty that spanned more than 250 years . Since Robert 's Rebellion , Daenerys and her brother Viserys had fled to the east , across the narrow sea , waiting to build an army large enough to claim back the Iron Throne . Daenerys is continuing to try to claim the throne for herself , but she now has to help fight against the White Walkers and their army of the undead . Here is everything you need to know about the Targaryen family and how they family has changed as they try to reclaim their rightful place in Westeros .

He was married to Elia Martell and they had two children together -- Rhaenys and Aegon , but they were all killed by Gregor Clegane following Rhaegar 's death . Fans discovered in season 7 that he had ran way with Lyanna Stark because they were in love , and they married each other in secret . Lyanna also gave birth to a son , who ended up becoming Jon Snow .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it involves the phrase 'get out of' followed by a gerund 'informing', but there is no NP object between 'get' and 'out of'. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves the phrase 'get out of informing Jon Snow', but 'get out of' here is used in a different sense, not involving a causer and causee relationship with a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, there is no clear NP object that functions as a causee in the context of the sentence.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'made a meal out of securing', which does not involve a causee or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'made a meal out of' is idiomatic and does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction.

Arsenal moved back into the Premier League top four as 10-man Watford provided the tonic for their away-day ills . With questions hanging over their poor form on the road , the Gunners benefited from a rare Ben Foster mistake and a rash moment from Troy Deeney , which saw the Watford skipper sent off as Arsenal still laboured heavily to a 1-0 win . The hosts started the game on the front foot as they looked to take advantage of Arsenal 's frail record away from the Emirates Stadium . Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang celebrates his early goal ( John Walton/PA ) But then two of their standout performers of recent times turned the game in favour of Unai Emery 's side in under two minutes . Foster -- so reliable in the Watford goal this season -- inexplicably dallied when clearing his lines and could only smash the ball into the foot of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as he tore down on him , the ball flashing into the empty net . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ moments later as he appeared to catch Lucas Torreira with a stray forearm . Referee Craig Pawson liaised with his assistant before producing the red card , an angry Deeney removing his shirt and exchanging views with the Arsenal bench as he finally departed . Arsenal had won just five away league games all season before travelling to face the FA Cup finalists and still made a meal out of securing the three points required to leapfrog both Chelsea and Manchester United into fourth . The Hornets almost hit back when a long-free kick dropped to Craig Cathcart , whose low strike was pushed onto the post by Bernd Leno . Watford goalkeeper Ben Foster , right , was at fault for the goal ( John Walton/PA ) Despite their numerical advantage , Arsenal laboured following Deeney 's departure , barely dealing with a barrage of set-pieces and crosses into their box as Konstantinos Mavropanos -- making his first start since May -- particularly struggled .

Emery reacted by introducing Mesut Ozil in place of Torreira at half-time but it was Henrikh Mkhitaryan who missed a fine chance to double Arsenal 's lead as Foster made a fine stop from the Armenian 's back-post effort . Watford , fresh from securing a place in just their second FA Cup final , were still in the game and Adam Masina was unfortunate to see a long-range strike crack against Leno 's crossbar just after the hour . Emery switched formation to a back-three before soon reverting back to the system which had started the game , bringing on Matteo Guendouzi and Ainsley Maitland-Niles in an attempt to wrestle control of the contest . Maitland-Niles was soon on hand to keep Arsenal in front , bravely sliding in to block Gray as Watford headed into the final 10 minutes with their visitors again on the ropes .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'cut into or out of programming' refers to interrupting or stopping broadcasts, not causing someone to move out of or preventing someone from doing something.

A weather forecaster ended up receiving death threats after she interrupted The Masters on CBS to issue tornado warnings . The unscheduled weather report came as Tiger Woods was about to make sporting history by completing one of the greatest comebacks of all time by winning his fifth green jacket in the tournament . But for Ella Dorsey , a meteorologist for CBS46 based in Atlanta , the safety of her viewers was more important than a game of golf . Ella Dorsey , a meteorologist at CBS46 at Atlanta said she received death threats for interrupting the Masters golf tournament to report tornado warnings ' To everyone sending me death threats right now : you would n't be saying a damn thing if a tornado was ravaging your home this afternoon , ' she tweeted CBS46 cut away from the golf to give a weather forecast about possible tornadoes in the area .

The death threats were a little over the top as the channel still managed to show the golf competition while splitting the screen with the weather warnings . ' We had a split screen . And golf was in a bigger box than our coverage , ' Dorsey confirmed . Broadcast networks often cut into or out of programming in cases of extreme weather and are allowed to interrupt previously scheduled shows in cases of extreme weather which could potentially threaten lives . Viewers complained the tornado alert could have instead been communicated by a scroll at the bottom of the screen or a even a text alert . During the 11pm broadcast on Sunday night , Dorsey @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's thinking for interrupting the climax of the historic sports event . Tiger Woods celebrates after sinking his putt to win on the 18th green during the final round of the Masters at Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia , but some were watching the weather ... A number of people were not happy that the tornado warnings interrupted golf coverage ' There were severe storms coming through and the final round of the Masters was playing on our channel . We cut into that programming when there was a tornado warning . This is not a plan that we stumbled upon . This is is something we had in place days in advance days in advance , ' Dorsey said . ' We knew there was going to be severe weather so we decided that if there were tornado warnings we would do a double box so that we could keep you updated with the current weather and so that people who wanted to see the final round of the masters could still watch . ' We @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that time the thousands of hateful emails , phone calls , Facebook messages and tweets that the CBS 46 newsroom received is unacceptable . Here at CBS 46 our number one priority is to keep you all safe and in the future that 's what we will continue to do , ' the forecaster said . ' We especially want to bring you the most updated information , so in the future , regardless of what is on programming , especially when there is a tornado warning you can turn us on and we will cut over any programming to keep you at home safe . ' Tiger Woods with with his green jacket and the Masters Trophy , which depicts the Augusta National clubhouse Other viewers were more sympathetic to the situation the weather forecasters were in The Federal Communication Commission expects stations to alert viewers when there is sudden inclement weather according to University of Georgia atmospheric sciences professor Marshall Shepherd , who is also a former president of the American Meteorological Society . ' There are still a significant number of people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ may not have other resources to receive a warning , ' Shepherd wrote answering criticisms as to why an app alert would not be as successful . Woods ended up winning the Masters before the storms rolled into Augusta after shooting shot a two-under 70 to finish at 13 under overall and defeat Dustin Johnson , Brooks Koepka and Xander Schauffele by one stroke . It was his first major victory since the 2008 U.S. Open . Tornadoes were reported in Texas , Louisiana , Mississippi and Alabama although none reportedly touched down in Georgia . Advertisement |

The sentence 'We get the same kick out of playing the music.' does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and the phrase 'out of playing the music' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe deriving enjoyment from an activity, which is not consistent with the construction's properties.

The popularity of the McCusker Brothers C ? il ? Band meant they were asked to play at the biggest shows , in the biggest halls Robert McMillen 19 April , 2019 01:00 The McCusker Brothers C ? il ? Band made four or five LPs and a single ON THE weekend of April 26-28 all roads lead to the Co Armagh town of Keady for the Maid of the Mill , a festival of Irish music and language in recognition of the contribution made by the famous McCusker Brothers to Irish music and dance over the decades . The festival is being organised by the Co Armagh Board of Comhaltas Ceolt ? ir ? ? ireann . The McCuskers , from Kilcreevy in the county , were quite a phenomenon going back as far as the late 1930s . Nine brothers in all -- Bernard , Tommy , Brendan , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Francis -- there were also two sisters , all raised in a musical family where the father played the piccolo while the mother played the accordion . In a wonderful interview with Brian Lawler on the Irish Traditional Music Archive site , Benignus describes the family 's musical world growing up . " All during my young life , nothing else really mattered much except music , " he tells Lawler . " It was the big thing in your life , you know , and our house would have been full every night with people playing music , listening to music and even dancing . The chairs would have been cleared back and I can remember as a wee fella , sitting under the table and watching what was going on . " There can hardly be a better description of the excitement of a c ? il ? house in full swing , with people dancing sets , than that . No wonder that each of the 11 McCusker children took up a musical instrument . ( Another member of the early band , not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an instrument you would normally associate with a c ? ili band but the McCuskers also featured the piccolo which further gave them an unmistakable sound . ) With various line-ups over the years , the boys would have played at the Feis in Mullaghbawn in the 1930s and right though the 1950s . C ? il ? dancing was always very popular and the McCuskers went from strength to strength and travelled farther and farther from Armagh in their nine-seat transporter . Many of the shows they did were in what Benignus describes as " small country halls " where people would come from all around for visiting c ? il ? bands . It was here that romances started , memories were created and friendships were immortalised . The members of the band who provided this invaluable social service got paid 10 shillings ( 50p ) each , for maybe playing for five hours at a time . After a long while , the nightly fee went up to the dizzying heights of ? 1 . The popularity of the McCusker Brothers C ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the biggest shows of the year , in the biggest halls in the country . In the same interview , Benignus recalls playing in the St Patrick 's Day c ? il ? in the Mansion House in Dublin . It was one of those great occasions when musicians and dancers became one body . " You 'd think the whole thing was pre-arranged , " Benignus told Brian Lawler . " There was no time lost at all in getting sets up on to the floor . They the dancers got a great kick out of it . " If you 're playing music and watching the people getting a kick out of what they 're doing , their dancing , you become part of it . We get the same kick out of playing the music . " Their music took them to America once and to Irish clubs in Britain , but more people would have heard them on Raidi ? ? ireann or on the BBC . The first thing they did for television was a c ? il ? from the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pop and rock n roll . Benignus believes it was the first c ? il ? to be shown on northern television . The band also made four or five LPs and a single but by the end of the 1960s there was a falling off in the number of c ? il ? s ; some of the brothers stopped playing after some 30 years on the road and that was the end of the McCusker Brothers C ? il ? Band . Their music still lives on , however , in later generations and a concert featuring several generations of the McCusker Family will lead off the festival on Friday April 26 at 7pm in the Tommy Makem Centre when flute-player Martin Meehan will do the introductions as Fear a ' T ? .

On the Sunday eveningthere should be no difficulty in finding a lively session in any of the usual enjoyable Keady venues . Pre-booking is advisable for all events and activities as places are beginning to fill up rapidly . Chairman of the Armagh County Board of CC ? Sean Lenagh said the festival was a tremendous acknowledgement of the contribution made by the McCusker Brothers to Irish traditional music during the c ? il ? band era and beyond . " The McCusker family played a pivotal role in preserving our native music and dance in this area and farther afield , " he said . " It is timely that their contribution be acknowledged during the festival weekend in ways which will make other generations aware of those who went before them and who kept the tradition alive for the future .

' Illmatic ' is possibly the most studied , storied , lauded rap album of all time . Nas ' epochal 1994 debut came to define an entire era , long cited for its complex imagery , brutal street poetry , and its emotional depth . But this praise has elevated ' Illmatic ' to a near unassailable position , something that - in truth - no one piece of art deserves . Clash has taken part in this conversation - hell , we even spoke to the man himself on the 20th anniversary about the enduring impact ' Illmatic ' holds . But it 's time to step away from all that . It 's fine to have a personal favourite , it 's fine to think - deep down - that ' Illmatic ' has flaws , and its fine to admit to yourself that other artists have matched or even superseded Nas ' classic debut . Here @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ - - - Jay Z - ' Reasonable Doubt ' ( Robin Murray ) Jay Z and Nas went through a decade-long beef that arguably ranks as one of hip-hop 's greatest set of sly disses , outright insults , and trash talk onslaughts . It all begins here , though , on Jay Z 's debut album , when Nas ducked out of recording a guest spot on ' Bring It On ' , with producer Ski Beats instead using a sample of the rapper on ' Dead Presidents II ' . Why did Nas fail to turn up to the studio that day ? He 's never really said , and we 'll never truly know . For know in Hove 's corner , though , it 's pretty simple : ' Reasonable Doubt ' has taken the street poetry of ' Illmatic ' and amplified it , exceeding Nas ' lauded debut with gritty knowledge and the kind of street hustle only Jay Z could provide . In the long term , though , the comparisons do n't matter -- Jay Z @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to quash the beef once and for all in 2006 when he signs Nas to Def Jam . The two even record together , but ' Black Republican ' can never match the white heat of their debut LPs . - - - DOOM - ' Operation : Doomsday ' ( Robin Murray ) ' Illmatic ' is a technically magnificent achievement , but for all Nas ' deft couplets , literary allusions , and complex internal rhyme structures the album 's narrative thrust remains the same as many other East Coast rap albums of the era . It 's simple : I live in New York , life is hard , but I remain cool as hell . Which is why ' Operation : Doomsday ' is arguably the finer achievement . Having abandoned rap following the death of his brother , ( MF ) DOOM creates a new outlaw character , one that provokes change by haranguing from the outskirts . It 's a complex record , full of mis-direction and lyrical trickery , often simultaneously revealing and disguising at the same time . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cold industry that values money over art , ' Operation : Doomday ' actually remains a nuanced , often light-hearted experience . An instant cult classic on its 1999 release , it 's light has only increased over the following decades . - - - Notorious B.I.G . - ' Ready To Die ' ( Emma Finamore ) Maybe it 's just because , come on , it 's Biggie , but I 've always returned to this album more often than ' Illmatic ' . The latter may be a hip-hop masterpiece -- a schooling in innovative , nimble production , and in album craft , with not a track out of place -- but ' Ready To Die ' just has more soul . Maybe it 's faux soul : both albums tell stories of ' 90s New York -- Nasir Jones ' Queens and Christopher Wallace 's Brooklyn -- but Biggie 's tale is a romantic , colourful rags to riches one , punctuated with humour and a hero that makes it out in the end , while ' Illmatic ' is relentless @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I never really smile or weep listening to Nas ' perfect record , while Biggie 's flows have me floored with laughter , sobbing -- see ' Suicidal Thoughts ' -- dancing -- see ' Juicy ' -- or just plain in awe of his wordsmithery and dexterity . Who else could come up with : " Super Nintendo , Sega Genesis/When I was dead broke , man , I could n't picture this . " For years listeners have wondered who that " other MC " is on hardcore cut ' Gim me The Loot ' ... but guess what , it 's just Biggie again , flexing his vocal prowess . ' Illmatic ' might be the record you choose with your head , but ' Ready To Die ' is an album of the heart . - - - Kanye West - ' My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy ' ( Will Rosebury ) It 's pretty undeniable that ' Illmatic ' has the best ' rapping ' on any album ever . I 'll give you that . But it 's a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ twice a year because you want to hear raw lyricism . Is it a go-to listen in the car ? Can you put it on at a party ? What track gets played in a club ? Which song gets you emotional ? Does it incorporate a myriad of styles ? No . Kanye West 's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy has it all . If we are talking production , Nas ' debut is definitely a masterpiece -- with some of the best producers ever providing their greatest work . But it sounds like 1994 , granted it 's an incredible musical time-capsule , however it 's very much of its time . Okay , ' My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy ' is n't even a decade old but it has n't aged a day - in fact , it still sounds like the future . The key difference is that ' Illmatic ' set the bar for all future rap music , and ' My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy ' raised that bar to a height no-one has come close to since . - @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ get under the skin of global cultural happenings .

Founded in 1902 as a result of a bequest by the artist Patrick Allan , Hospitalfield in Arbroath was once a postgraduate residential art school , with artists such as Joan Eardley , Robert Colquhoun and Robert MacBryde passing through its halls . Now a centre for artists on residencies , both from the UK and abroad , it opens its doors , artistically , to the public for two " opening weekends " a year , and a summer " Fieldwork " programme . Over the next five years , Director Lucy Byatt will oversee the expansion of this historic red sandstone building into an art venue open to the public year-round . In the meantime , the Spring Open Weekend is upon us , a three day series of installations and talks , rather like a mini-festival . And the talks are key , says Byatt , for Angus audiences want to meet the artists who have , frequently , been living on their doorsteps for many months . This year 's theme is Roaming . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ says Byatt , " The way that you are permitted to or not permitted to . But it is also about how important transport is in bringing ideas and knowledge and cultural understanding of one another . " The theme is pertinent , not least in our current political climate . Sarah Rose , Rania Stephan and Rachel Adams are the artists presenting physical pieces ; Fergus Tibbs , of the Free Drawing School , who completed a residency in 2018 , will spend the weekend giving workshops on drawing and natural pigment . Originally from New Zealand , now based in Glasgow , Sarah Rose had " no knowledge of living in a rural location in Scotland , " says Byatt , before taking up the Meander residency ( funded by Paths for All ) at Hospitalfield . " The right to roam policy was of great interest to her . It sounds so generous , but it 's very ambiguous . You think you have the right to go anywhere you like , but it 's only under very specific conditions . " Rose talked to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ she took in the coastline with its many fruit farms , assimilating it all in a new performance work " Byproduct " that was the direct result of her residency . It is , says Byatt , an amazing thing , a sculptural work performed using the by-product of the fruit industry in a distillation process that forces the pressure of air coming out of distilling fruits to play ten glass organ pipes , " like the breath of the fruit , " smiles Byatt . In the gardens , Rachel Adams is installing a scaffolding structure -- inspired , Byatt says , by the poly tunnels that dot the coast -- and covered in blue printed textile like a computer motherboard . Inside , sculptural mushrooms and ferns , which visitors will discover as they walk in to them . " She 's interested in a similar idea to Rose -- the construction of nature , " says Byatt . Adams ' work is this year 's sculpture commission , and will remain in the gardens until September . The final work is different again . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by Lebanese filmmaker Rania Stephan , edited in 2017 from footage shot in 1999 . Taking its route along the old railway line , now defunct , linking Lebanon and Palestine , Syria and Turkey , the countries it served split by war and politics , it is a lovely and elegiac film , tracing the route of the old railway down through the communities who live their lives over the remains of the track , sometimes quite literally . Here , it runs through an orchard , there , under a tent in a camp of Palestinian refugees . All down the line , old men and women reminisce about the happiness that their lives on or around the railway gave , how they would like it to return , how they travelled , how it gave them purpose , what these other places , no longer accessible , looked like . All along , Stephan ghosts , quite literally , films about railways , about the movement of people along these arteries , over the memories of the people who live here . Classics of culture from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ too of soldiers loaded up on trains . " People loved each other " , one person says . " There was no war , no bombings . " Stephan takes Polaroid snapshots of the people she talks to as she takes cinematic snapshots of their lives . The film is full of wonderful affirmations of the warmth of humanity , of welcome to strangers , of curiosity , and of longing and great loss . A life on the line , imagined , as it has been imagined , as it is , as it was -- and all before mobile phones , before the ubiquity of the internet grafted over the memories , just 20 years ago . Stephan will , along with the other artists , be in conversation next weekend in a packed schedule of talks , performances , walks and workshops amongst the historic rooms and studios of Hospitalfield -- well worth , if you will excuse the pun , travelling for . Alec Finlay explores the nature of place in philosophical mappings and chartings of the landscape , both physical and cultural @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ recent projects , its heart is in " gathering " , an ambitious creative mapping of the Gaelic landscape of the Highlands , based on Adam Watson 's comprehensive guide to Gaelic placenames in the Cairngorms . Finlay weaves in important ideas of rewilding and the right to care for the environment , vital in the current climate emergency . A partnership between Scotland 's two major centres for photography , Stills ' latest exhibition , AMBIT , is full of the kind of juxtapositions of vision and aesthetic at which this city centre gallery excels . Run in conjunction with Glasgow 's Street Level Photoworks , this is an exhibition of the new and the innovative , both galleries showing a different batch of photographers at opposite ends of the train line . Amongst many diverse images , which range from black and white darkroom-processed film to drone shots and camera-less photography , there is work from places as wide-ranging as Orkney and Ethiopia . Mhairi Law 's sobering " The Darkest Dawn " was made in commemoration of the Iolaire disaster which saw the loss of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sight of the Lewis shore in the blackness and gales before dawn on New Year 's Day , 1919 . Law 's photos of the marker on the Beasts of Holm rocks , on which the ship foundered , chart the nightmare of absolute dark and the grim dawn . Kieran Dodds ' " Hierotopia " looks at the loss of ancient forests in Ethiopia and the life-supporting 5% which still exist , huddled in sacred landscapes around Tewahedo orthodox churches . There is work , too , from Alex Hall , Brittonie Fletcher and Frances Scott , whilst Morwenna Kearsley shows " Evasive Action " , three large black and white silver gelatin prints that were produced in the darkroom at Stills . And that , indeed , is the unique worth of Stills -- currently under threat from a three-fold city-centre rent increase - it provides not only gallery space for showing innovative work , but production space in which to make work , experiment and exchange ideas .

The Paul Heckingbottom express rolls on as Hibs made it nine games undefeated in the league since the former Barnsley manager took charge with a 0-0 draw against former boss Neil Lennon and his Celtic side . This has now gone beyond a simple flash in the pan ; a new manager bounce borne out of being a widely different character and manager to the emotional and provocative Neil Lennon . By the week Heckingbottom is showing himself to be a highly astute reader of the game , while his work away from the pitch continues to help those tasked with carrying out his instructions on it . Looking at the Hibs team against Celtic , it was hard to believe these were the same characters who dropped to eighth in the league table before his arrival . The additions of Stephane Omeonga and Marc McNulty have certainly helped lift the quality of the squad , two players who came to the club just before Heckingbottom came in , but it 's now common place to see excellent performances from David Gray , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ players who had struggled for form prior to his arrival . So often in football these days we see managers take over clubs and make wholesale changes to the team personal . " They are not his players " is the typical get-out-of-jail-free card offered by pundits for new managers that are struggling to lift performances compared with their predecessors . Instead , we quite often see clubs continue to struggle badly even when a boat load of new talent arrives on the scene . That 's because managers are supposed to raise the performance of the team and the individuals within it regardless of whether they are their type of footballers or not . They 're supposed to look at the squad , identify the strengths , identify the weaknesses , and shape them in a manner which heightens the former and conceals the latter . Then on the training pitch it is their job to teach and enhance . Heckingbottom did n't have access to a transfer window when he took over this struggling team , so perhaps we 're giving him too much credit @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ started again if given the chance . But considering the way he operates , his enthusiasm for tactics and teaching , it seems unlikely that would have happened . The unbeaten run can not last forever and there will be more difficult and trying times to come under his tutelage . But when they finally come across rough terrain , Hibs supporters should be placated with the knowledge that they have one of the best head coaches in the country behind the wheel . |

That is the only way we can describe the events of the latest instalment of Line Of Duty . Sunday night 's watercooler episode saw writer Jed Mercurio 's habit of killing off a huge character strike again , as the series ' antagonist John Corbett had his throat slit after the organised crime group worked out that he was " a rat " . As the nation tries to fathom where the story can possibly go next , here 's the questions we 're asking this week ... Before AC-12 found a way to hack into the chat service H has been using to contact the OCG , Corbett and McQueen were seen communicating with H once again . But with Hargreaves now dead and Hastings having disposed of his laptop , does this rule both of them out of being H ? BBC When @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ associate 's house , he was found to be keeping a body in cold storage - a known OCG technique used to bribe corrupt officers . This was presumed to be the body of Jackie Laverty , who was working for the OCG in series one . But why have the OCG still got it seven years on , and who are they planning to bribe with it ? Thanks to a hunch from Arnott , it was discovered Corbett was actually adopted . He was born to the McGuiness family in Northern Ireland , and subsequently adopted by the Corbett family in Liverpool in 1989 as a 10-year-old , with his adoptive mother 's maiden name also being McGuiness , suggesting she was a close relative . His Northern Irish roots acted as an explanation for why he was able to use a Belfast accent during his attack on Hastings ' wife , but did little to explain the motivations behind it , or why he gave her a pattern of injuries consistent with the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a woman called Anne Marie during Corbett 's phone call to his wife - who is she , and what relevance does she bear ? BBC Cast your mind back to last week 's episode , and you may remember that when Arnott was looking through McQueen 's files , he discovered she was adopted . With Corbett now revealed to share a similar history , is there more to this connection ? After Arnott failed to follow Hastings ' instructions to apprehend or shoot Corbett , Hastings was seen paying a visit to OCG member Lee Banks in prison . We were not privy to what was said in their conversation , but Hastings was seen telling Banks that he would be " glad " they 'd spoken . Did he rat out Corbett to Banks , and reveal his real identity to avenge the attack on his wife ? Last week , fans were left @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ during an internet chat with the OCG was significant , and sure enough , it was revisited in tonight 's episode when Hastings misspelt it in the same way . Was this just an unfortunate coincidence , or does this further prove he could be H ? BBC During AC-12 's online chat with the OCG , Hastings ( acting as H ) ordered McQueen to " bring it to a close " . She seemed to understand what this instruction meant , whereas Corbett did not . Was this the order to have Corbett killed ? After having Corbett 's throat slit , she had a moment by herself where she was horrified by what had unfolded - just as she did in episode one when Corbett ordered Maneet 's death - which has forced us to question yet again how genuine her involvement with the OCG is . Is she simply in above her head ? An undercover officer ? Or is she connected |

HALF a century after they began , Steeleye Span are still going strong . They have gone through more personnel changes than you could shake a maypole at , yet Maddy Prior continues to delight audiences with her singing and sprightly dancing at the age of 71 . And while they might have flirted with commerciality rather too much for many tastes , they retain a grounding in pure , traditional folk . Madelaine Edith Prior , whose father Allan was co-creator of the BBC police series Z-Cars and Softly , Softly , was born in Blackpool but moved with her family at the age of 11 to St Albans , where she became involved in the folk-club scene and was persuaded by other musicians to concentrate on traditional English songs . She met the multi-instrumentalist Tim Hart and they became both an item and a successful duo , seen by some as a British version of Sonny and Cher , although it is hard to imagine Hart and Prior performing the cheesy I Got You Babe . The pair recorded Folk Songs of Olde England @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Volume 1 opens with Lish Young Buy-a-Broom . The 20-year-old Hart accompanies his high , nasal voice with banjo and is soon joined by Prior to give the first example of their stirring harmonies . This is followed by Adieu Sweet Lovely Nancy . The album still sounds as fresh as when it was recorded and I play it often . However , there is one appalling solecism . On the otherwise brilliant The Dalesman 's Litany , Hart pronounces Keighley in Yorkshire as ' Keeley ' rather than ' Keithley ' . For that he deserved to have a pint of the town 's premier product , Timothy Taylor 's Landlord ale , poured over his head . Highlight of Volume 2 , for me , is Horn of the Hunter , a salute to John Peel ( the Cumberland master of hounds , not the DJ ) followed by Copshawholme Fairand Oats and Beans , the latter of which was always sung at birthday parties during my childhood . Of the two albums , Maddy says : ' They did us a lot of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ increase our price from ? 10 a night to ? 15 . ' It was in late 1969 that bass player Ashley Hutchings left Fairport Convention following a terrible road accident which claimed the lives of drummer Martin Lamble and Richard Thompson 's girlfriend Jeannie Franklin . He joined forces with Hart and Prior plus another duo , the Irish couple Gay and Terry Woods . They named themselves after Steeleye Span , a character in the traditional song Horkstow Grange . All moved into a small house together and were soon at each other 's throats . Gay and Terry were on their bike before the band had even performed its first gig but played their part in its 1970 debut album , Hark ! The Village Wait . Since Maddy , Tim and Terry all strum the banjo , the instrument is well represented and that is fine by me . The world would be a better place with more banjos . Ditto ukuleles . And resophonic guitars , the instruments formerly known as dobros . Highlight of side one , for me , is the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ This is one of those improbable stories where a couple are parted when the chap goes off to sea and they divide a ring between them symbolising their vow to remain faithful to each other . Seven years later he comes back and woos his lass anew but she does n't recognise him behind his sailor 's beard and insists she must stay true to her missing love . Then he produces his half of the ring and all is well . OK , a tall tale , but nothing by comparison with most of the stuff that comes out of Downing Street these days . Another favourite is The Hills of Greenmore , but really there is little not to like on this excellent record . Following the Woodses ' departure , the band was joined by Martin Carthy on guitar and vocals , plus fiddler Peter Knight . The result was 1971 's Please to See the King , whose lack of drums and harsh electric instrumentation produced a sound unique to Steeleye . One admirable facet of the group was their willingness to re-record @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you have n't done it justice ? Hence Copshawholme Fair is on both Folk Songs Vol 2 and Hark ! The Village Wait . Blacksmith is the second song on Hark ! and the first , sung much more slowly , on Please to See The King . Tracks four to six form the heart of the album -- Prince Charlie Stuart ( 'my love was six foot two , without stocking or shoe ' ) , the haunting Boys of Bedlam and False Knight on the Road , the latter about a battle of wits between a young boy and the Devil . Melody Maker , then still worth reading , declared it folk record of the year . At the same time , Hart and Prior were recording their third album together , Summer Solstice . This features a hugely different False Knight plus a lovely version of I Live Not Where I Love . And for Nick Drake fans , there is a Robert Kirby string arrangement on Dancing at Whitsun . Also in that busy year of 1971 came the third Steeleye LP @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Again . Wikipedia says : ' The album 's curious title and subtitle require some explanation . A " mop " or " mop fair " is a late medieval term for a job fair , where labourers come looking for work . ( The song Copshawholme Fair , from the band 's first album , is about such a fair . ) The conceit was that the band were out of work and job-hunting . A " ten man mop " would be a very poor show , since there would be few potential employees to choose from . The even more curious subtitle is a reference to Reservoir Butler , who had originally performed one of the songs covered on the album . The band were so struck by his unusual name that they decided it needed to be saved from obscurity . ' Despite tracks such as When I Was on Horsebackand Marrowbones , Ten Man Mop was less successful than its predecessor . And because the gatefold , book-style sleeve cost so much to produce , apparently the band lost money every time a copy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but I can suggest a simple solution to this problem : put the price up a bit . ) Hutchings and Carthy left Steeleye after Ten Man Mop to pursue more purist folk projects . One delightful legacy of the era is the group 's acapella version of Buddy Holly 's classic Rave On , which the members other than Hutchings recorded to poke fun at his scholarly seriousness . He loved it . At around the 40-second mark , you will hear the record apparently stick -- a frequent occurrence in the age of vinyl . When Steeleye performed it live they would keep repeating the ' stuck ' part until band and audience jumped up and down to ' free ' the needle and the song continued . Hutchings was replaced on bass by Rick Kemp , who would go on to marry Maddy Prior . Their daughter Rose Kemp is a folk/pop musician while son Alex , who goes simply by the stage name Kemp , is a hip-hop performer . In Carthy 's stead came electric guitarist Bob Johnson . And on drums @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . A huge turning point , and that 's where I 'll leave it except to say that Maddy Prior 's finest hour was yet to come . I make no apologies for a repeat mention of 1976 's Silly Sisters , the first album she made with June Tabor .

Yes , I know . I 've already plumped for someone other than James Forrest to be recognised as the best player in Scotland only last month . In all honesty , it was always something of a coin-toss between Wee Jamesy ? ? and Callum McGregor for the award as there 's really not much in it . Both players have had exceptional seasons , been a massive difference to the Celtic side and have both improved their game yet again on last season , much like they both did the season before that . There could n't be any real complaints if either one took home the prize at the end of the day , but as soon as the CalMac piece went up , I had a real feeling of guilt that Forrest deserved the recognition too . Both Forrest and McGregor deserve recognition this season ( Image : SNS Group ) Why ? There 's few if any players that have terrorised their opponents like the the 27-year-old winger this season . He 's one of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the possibility of something exciting happening increases exponentially . The head goes down , the gears step up and the wee man is away , running at a hapless defender with the roars of thousands of fans willing him on . It 's not that far away from the ' Bobo 's gon na get ya ' days , but instead of ending up in a crumpled heap of pain on the ground , his opponent is invariably going to be left with looking on at a ball in his net and wondering how the Celtic man got past him yet again . 23 goals ( including two hat-tricks ) and 12 assists this season already show just how unplayable he can be at times . ( Image : Andrew Milligan/PA Wire ) Plus he 's a big-game player , too . Champions League qualifiers , Rangers games , cup semi-finals and in three League Cup finals , all of which Celtic have ended up winning - these are the high pressure moments that Forrest thrives in . Look at that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ created out of nothing , the kind that only a top , top player can pull out . There 's still that trip to Ibrox and a potential treble Treble-winning Scottish Cup final at Hampden to come this season .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'making a career out of scoring and creating crucial goals', where 'scoring and creating crucial goals' is an NP complement of the complex preposition 'out of', not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it lacks the movement/extraction or prevention interpretation characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Yes , I know . I 've already plumped for someone other than James Forrest to be recognised as the best player in Scotland only last month . In all honesty , it was always something of a coin-toss between Wee Jamesy ? ? and Callum McGregor for the award as there 's really not much in it . Both players have had exceptional seasons , been a massive difference to the Celtic side and have both improved their game yet again on last season , much like they both did the season before that . There could n't be any real complaints if either one took home the prize at the end of the day , but as soon as the CalMac piece went up , I had a real feeling of guilt that Forrest deserved the recognition too . Both Forrest and McGregor deserve recognition this season ( Image : SNS Group ) Why ? There 's few if any players that have terrorised their opponents like the the 27-year-old winger this season . He 's one of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the possibility of something exciting happening increases exponentially . The head goes down , the gears step up and the wee man is away , running at a hapless defender with the roars of thousands of fans willing him on . It 's not that far away from the ' Bobo 's gon na get ya ' days , but instead of ending up in a crumpled heap of pain on the ground , his opponent is invariably going to be left with looking on at a ball in his net and wondering how the Celtic man got past him yet again . 23 goals ( including two hat-tricks ) and 12 assists this season already show just how unplayable he can be at times . ( Image : Andrew Milligan/PA Wire ) Plus he 's a big-game player , too . Champions League qualifiers , Rangers games , cup semi-finals and in three League Cup finals , all of which Celtic have ended up winning - these are the high pressure moments that Forrest thrives in . Look at that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ created out of nothing , the kind that only a top , top player can pull out . There 's still that trip to Ibrox and a potential treble Treble-winning Scottish Cup final at Hampden to come this season .

If there 's a better option than himself to pull the trigger , he will without fail , unselfishly make the right call and set his teammate up .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object between the verb 'get' and 'out of doing things like this', and it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to express a general statement about what someone gains from an activity, which is not the focus of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Shares It 's no secret that the British healthcare system is under-pressure and that a huge proportion of this weight could be removed if we all looked after our health a little better . One in four people still die due to preventable diseases , such as heart or respiratory issues . Meanwhile lifestyle-related illnesses cost the NHS more than ? 11bn a year , with the associated sick days leaving British firms ? 77 billion worse off annually due to lost productivity . The combined cost to the British economy is huge -- and it 's within everyone 's best interests to solve the problem . Over the past decade , we 've seen a subtle shift in who 's assuming responsibility for healthcare , with employers increasingly feeling and demonstrating a duty of care for employees , so that some of the load is removed from the state . This makes sound business sense really ; if employees are healthier , they take fewer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ conditions that will result in high premiums for private health insurance . This shift of responsibility to the employer has coincided with advances in healthcare technology -- which over the last decade has made its way out of operating theatres and into the everyday lives of health-conscious individuals . These two areas are converging so that we 're seeing employers increasingly turn to technology to drive improved health within their workforces . While this is n't a wholly altruistic move , it is one with positive repercussions for society and the public purse . One area where we 've seen considerable advancements over recent years is fitness tracking . UK insurer , Vitality , was a frontrunner in this space -- enabling employees to link their fitness tracker or mobile to their scheme and earn points/rewards for activity . More recently we 've seen US insurer , John Hancock , apply fitness tracking to all its schemes . While controversial , this presents clear value to all involved . Employees benefit from reduced premiums , employers feel their people 's gratitude @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a healthier group of people . Looking at what employers already offer , alongside the latest innovations in self-care , we can make an educated guess as to what might be next on employers ' agendas . Health assessments are already a common facet in PMI schemes , while genome sequencing kits , such as those offered by 23andMe , are gaining increasing traction among the general public . You can see how these could be wrapped into an employers ' healthcare package to offer their people a window into the medical conditions they may be at risk from developing or passing on in the future . Tests could be undertaken at the start of employment and supported by annual health assessments , treatment through PMI and more light-touch preventative healthcare benefits , such as free fruit . The result would be a holistic healthcare package , uniquely personalised to the employee . Taking this one step further and cross-referencing with artificial intelligence ( AI ) , employers could take the data gained on an employee @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do , health assessments , weight etc. ) to look at their chances of ill-health in later life . With some of the most common and costly medical conditions linked to lifestyle factors , providing employees with an early warning that they 're becoming more susceptible to these could help alter their behaviour , improve their health and reduce the burden on our healthcare systems . Looking further into the future , there 's potential for employers to use augmented and virtual reality ( AR and VR ) as drivers in preventative healthcare . There 's already a wealth of applications out there using AR to show how a person could look in old age . At present these Snapchat-style filters are commonly used for entertainment -- but imagine layering this software with lifestyle data to provide a real indication of how a person 's diet and exercise regime could impact their physicality . Employees would be able to meet their later-life selves , an experience which could provide an effective wake-up call for many , encouraging them to rethink the lifestyle choices that could have a negative @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the progression of workplace health tech ? All the above solutions demand employees to share a large amount of highly personal , potentially sensitive data with their employers . There are two issues associated with this , the first being trust . Employees need to be sure that any information collected about their health will not impact their relationship with their employer . If genetic testing reveals a pre-disposition to diabetes for example , they must know that employers wo n't shy away from giving them more responsibility or a promotion in anticipation of time off for sickness that might never come . To counter this risk , it 's likely that employees would want a contractual agreement with their employer before handing over this information . Even if employees were happy to share their heath data with their employer , a regulatory issue remains following the implementation of GDPR . There is no justification for employers to share or store individuals ' health data -- meaning that drilling down to a micro level to anticipate individual healthcare outcomes could contravene the legislation . Despite this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ schemes could still expose macro trends with the potential to play a role in encouraging individuals to uphold better self-care behaviours . By comparing absenteeism levels to the number of employees taking preventative measures to care for their health i.e. wearing fitness trackers , taking a genome sequencing test or even subscribing to subsidised gym memberships or free office fruit , employers will be able to correlate better health with better self-care . Without a doubt , the digitalisation of healthcare offers huge potential to expand the preventative healthcare initiatives offered by employers as part of their benefits schemes and improve their effectiveness . By promoting these , alongside healthy lifestyles and exercise , employers can reduce the strain on publicly provisioned healthcare . While employees will still need to engage with the healthcare system for diagnosis , achieving a more health-aware workforce should help prevent health issues occurring and escalating , therefore reducing those which reach curative stages . |

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject (implied 'he') + V1 ('was talked') + NP object (implied 'him') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('quitting'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where someone prevented 'him' from quitting by means of talking. The passive voice is used, which is one of the properties of the construction. The NP object 'him' (implied) is a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'quitting'.

As Joe Biden launched his third and likely final attempt to win the White House on Thursday , Democratic politicians from his native Pennsylvania and adopted home state of Delaware rushed to support him . But the former vice president 's former boss , Barack Obama , sat on his hands . A person familiar with Obama 's thinking said Thursday that the 44th president is ' excited by the extraordinary and diverse talent exhibited in the growing lineup of Democratic primary candidates . ' But ' it 's unlikely that he will throw his support behind a specific candidate this early in the primary process -- preferring instead to let the candidates make their cases directly to the voters , ' the source said . Joe Biden entered the 2020 presidential race on Thursday but he came out of the gagte without a key endorsement Barack Obama , who Biden served as VP for eight years , did n't leap to back his former number-two In public , Obama spokeswoman Katie Hill told reporters : ' President Obama has long said that selecting Joe Biden as his running mate in 2008 was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' He relied on the Vice President 's knowledge , insight , and judgment throughout both campaigns and the entire presidency , ' said Hill . ' The two forged a special bond over the last 10 years and remain close today . ' But that was n't enough to snuff out the appearance that Biden 's moment as party heir-apparent had passed in 2016 when he decided not to challenge Hillary Clinton for the Democratic presidential nomination . The decision was a gut-wrenching one in October 2015 : Biden 's son Beau had died of brain cancer , and he explained that the grieving process had ' closed ' the window on the possibility of running an earnest campaign . Two months later , with Clinton faltering and Donald Trump surging , he told a TV interview of his decision : ' I regret it every day .

' We do n't need eight more years of Biden . Just ask President Obama , who is n't even endorsing his right-hand man . ' Biden 's first high-profile endorsements came from Democratic U.S. senators who hail from his native Pennsylvania and his childhood state of Delaware .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'getting kicks out of doing this', where 'kicks' is an NP object of 'getting' and 'doing this' is a gerund phrase modifying 'kicks'. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'getting kicks out of doing this', where 'kicks' is an NP object of 'getting' and 'doing this' is a complement of 'out of', but it does not involve a causee or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Thus, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence 'They shouldn't be left out of anything.' does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks a VP2[-ing] predicate and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of anything' is a prepositional phrase modifying 'left', not part of the transitive out of -ing construction.

More than just a tongue-in-cheek quip , Ann 's words echo the all-in-this-together approach to local life in Carmyle . As a community mover and shaker , if you ask what makes Ann tick , the answer lies in giving back to the area she and fellow residents affectionately call " the village . " With a small band of volunteers by her side , Ann , 73 , is the driving force behind a number of community achievements that have bonded Carmyle with neighbouring Mount Vernon . One is the Kenmuir and Carmyle Tea Lovers Circle , known locally as the TLC . Initially opened as a meeting cafe for local residents with mild to moderate dementia and their carers , the circle has grown into an inclusive space where people of all ages can remain social with old friends and new . " We do n't believe in people with dementia being segregated , " says Ann . " They should n't be left out of anything . Plus there are a lot of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have nowhere to go . " Located at Carmyle Church of Scotland , everyone is welcome whether they share in the Christian faith or have little or no spiritual tradition . This open hand of friendship sees up to 80 people from the community attend the TLC , making the most of the singers , speakers and day trips organised by Ann . Proud Carmylite and regular face at the TLC is 81-year-old Ruby Armitage . As a community champion herself , having run the local senior citizens group for 15 years , Ruby is full of praise for the way Ann has brought together the community she loves . Ruby says : " Ann is the kind of person who includes everyone . She 's does n't do favourites and treats everyone equally . The TLC is wonderful for the village because it brings everyone out . " " One lady that comes who is living with dementia chaps my door and asks : ' Is it today ? ' " adds Ruby . " I say no , it 's next week . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . There might be a lot of things she ca n't remember , but not that . " Ann , who also volunteers as a dog walker and runs sing sessions in a local care home , owned a family butchers and worked across healthcare before getting busy in her retirement . In becoming a carer for her late husband during his illness , she realised loneliness can hit hard . " I 've always had a great network of friends , " says Ann . " But you 've got to remember other people are n't as fortunate . Sometimes when support is outwith your area you 're not inclined to go , as it 's just too much . " Following her husband 's passing 13 years ago , Ann saw how easy it is for people in grief to shut themselves away . If she ever needed extra motivation to help others , she explains : " I 've always been a Christian and I felt God was saying ; ' I 'm not finished with you yet ' .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not give rise to either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'crashing out of qualifying' is more about exiting a situation rather than the specific construction in question.

Charles Leclerc will beat himself up after scuppering his chances of a maiden Formula One victory by crashing out of qualifying in Azerbaijan . The Ferrari junior headed into Saturday 's contest for pole here on the twisty streets of Baku as the commanding favourite after he dominated practice . But his hopes ended dramatically in the barriers . Valtteri Bottas swooped in to edge out team-mate Lewis Hamilton by just six hundredths of a second , and head an unlikely front-row lockout for Mercedes . No excuses . I 've been useless . I will push to have a better tomorrow . Sorry to all the people supporting us and even more to the whole team that deserved so much better. ? ? : **42;784;TOOLONG Leclerc 's team-mate Sebastian Vettel finished third on an evening Ferrari , in front of their new chairman John Elkann , will want to forget .

The usually-polite Monegasque rebuffed the approach of a track medic before slumping into the back of a car that whisked him away from the scene of his crime . He is set to start from ninth on the grid . After a self-deprecating tweet in which he wrote : " I 'm useless , no excuses " , his dark mood had eased little when he was thrust in front of Sky Sports .

" It is cool that he is open about it so he can get it out of his system and move forward .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'made a career out of enacting it to perfection' involves an NP object 'a career' which does not function as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Discerning what makes a great player tick is a nigh-on impossible task . How do you make sense of Messi 's magic ? How do you dismantle Ronaldo 's phenomena into nuts and bolts ? Getting to grips with Luka Modric meanwhile requires a PHD in trigonometry with a foundation course in philosophy thrown in . Understanding Arjen Robben , however , was and is pretty simple because there 's one move , executed time and time and time again . Opposition full-backs know it 's coming . Everybody in the stadium knows it 's coming . Only one man knows when though . Which split second . That is not to say of course that the flying winger is a one-trick-pony , far from it . You do n't win eleven league titles across four countries and finish in the reckoning for the Ballon d'Or unless there is something special and multifarious about you and , in Robben 's case , his blistering speed has always exhilarated while his touch and clever , sharp movement continues to impress . " He 's world class . I can only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " . So said Bayern Munich 's sporting director Matthias Sammer in 2014 and it would take a very begrudging soul to disagree . Fans of Spurs , Chelsea and Newcastle name their club 's worst ever manager in the video below ... That move though : it would be entirely disingenuous to laud the sustained brilliance of the boy from Bedum over two decades without focusing on it . It would be as remiss as committing lots of words to Neil Armstrong and not mentioning the moon . You know the move . You 're picturing it right now are n't you ? Whether it 's in the club colours of Groningen , PSV , Chelsea , Real Madrid or Bayern or burning bright for Oranje on the international stage , the consummate wide-man has made a career out of enacting it to perfection , scampering down the right ; drawing a defender to either commit or at least get close , then cutting inside onto his divine left foot . On occasion he will float an angled delivery for a Van Persie or Lewandowski @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ curl a shot into the far corner and mostly too he will score . For the German giants alone he has scored 126 times from 278 appearances and it 's not an exaggeration to estimate that 90% of these came from his signature cut-back-and-curl . So familiar is the sight that it 's become almost trademarked -- indeed , in France sashaying in from the right is widely termed ' Le Robben ' -- and so impactful has it been that it 's partly responsible for the trend to have inverted wingers in the modern era yet , in truth , it 's a ruse as old as the hills . The great Brazilian Garrincha was masterful at dropping his shoulder as too was Sir Stanley Matthews , each delighting in wrong-footing defenders ; each somehow making the predictable unpredictable . And that ultimately is what amazes about such players . While Messi and others confound with their unfathomable mysteries , Robben performs his magic with sleeves rolled up and not a prop to be seen . He could even tell you what he 's planning to do @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would be stupefied . That borders on witchcraft . Arjen Robben signed for Chelsea in the summer of 2004 in a deal worth ? 12 million , with the newly flush Blues beating off the advances of Manchester United , who bid so low that PSV 's chairman claimed it would only get them an autographed shirt . Chelsea won the league that year , as comfortably as any side can , and then Jose Mourinho 's men repeated the feat the following season too . In both campaigns injuries meant the Dutch star was n't a mainstay yet , so bamboozling were his jet-heeled displays , he is remembered as an integral figure in those glory years , remaining beloved by the Bridge faithful even to the present day . In his debut campaign Robben hit the ground running from the off , forming a formidable wing alliance with Damien Duff that Drogba and Gudjohnsen immensely benefited from and it 's during this intoxicating introduction that we find his slice of genius . The date is November 13th 2004 and Chelsea are at a packed out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in order to reclaim the Premier League summit . Frank Lampard had opened proceedings in the first period but now Papa Bouba Diop has equalised and the Fulham crowd are upping the decibels in this always fiercely contested derby . Enter stage right -- to naturally drift to stage left -- Arjen Robben . The ball falls to his feet from a half-clearance as the away side camp on the edge of Fulham 's box and the 20-year-old 's first touch queues up a left footed strike . Two defenders buy it wholesale and go to ground , desperately trying to block the incoming shot but Robben is cuter and turns right leaving them sprawled on the turf and completely out of the picture . Now a right-footed hit is lined up from just inside the penalty area and Zat Knight is obviously not yet fully clued up the one of the most famous moves in world football because he actually steps across thinking this could conceivably happen . Of course it does not . Of course , Robben cuts inside onto his left but with an admittedly slightly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ soon deals with that and the fine individual goal is made all the more picturesque by the German 's second attempt to reach the ball when off-balance . It 's a sort of despairing swan-dive . Four players have now been duped inside a tight area of space and three lie prostate on the deck . The shot when it comes is clinical and low , the time for cuteness passed . This summer the wide-man capped 96 times by Holland is set to leave Bayern after ten trophy-laden years and there is a realistic chance that he wo n't take a step down through the levels but instead retire . It will be a sad day for football , so familiar have his runs been , so familiar has he been . At least when that time comes , and the boots are put away for good , Arjen Robben might bless us with an explanation , on how he pulled off a career 's worth of sorcery in plain sight . |

Team BMW 's Andrew Jordan has been taken to hospital as a precaution after his BMW 3 Series suffered two heavy collisions in the opening British Touring Car Championship race at Donington Park . The 2013 champion topped FP1 yesterday but struggled in qualifying , lining up 16th on the grid for race one . On the first lap , Jordan appeared to be pitched into a spin by Rob Collard 's Vauxhall at the Old Hairpin , sliding him sideways before he was collected by the unsighted Adam Morgan who slammed into Jordan 's door and left him with a sore side . A second hit then came from Stephen Jelley , again knocking the door of the Pirtek-backed BMW 330i M Sport , with the collisions causing damage to the roll cage too heavy to be repaired at the Leicestershire circuit . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'crashed out of qualifying' does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'out of qualifying' here indicates the event from which the subject was removed due to crashing, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'get out of feeling that way' involves an intransitive verb 'get' with no NP object, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

For Alex Johnson , spending 15 hours at her desk was just another day in the office . " The worst I did was actually 21 hours at my desk , " the former sales manager for a prominent multinational retail bank told World Finance . " It was brutal . Sometimes I 'd be sat at my desk for two hours , not even able to go to the bathroom , because I had to get something done to pass it on to my team . I was always very conscious of the fact that they were all working in support of me , so I needed to get things through as quickly as possible to try and alleviate the pressure from them . But there was nobody ever alleviating the pressure from me . " The companies driving innovation and evolution have a responsibility to ensure that they 're doing so in a responsible way Johnson , whose name has been changed at her request , joined the bank in 2008 , just as the financial crisis hit hard and teams were being trimmed to their bare minimum to cut expenses . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to have a leaner workforce with less staff , but the workload remained the same . " In such an economically challenging environment , the competition to bring in business was even more intense then it had been previously , which meant going above and beyond to win new clients -- even if that involved stretching teams to the absolute limit . Johnson worked on deals lasting anywhere between six and 18 months , which might see her working 18-hour days for the entire period . " From the moment you win the business , the client sings the tune and you dance to it , " she told World Finance . " The client sets the project schedule and you have no choice but to meet the deadlines , or you 're out . Because there will be plenty of other people out there who will make those deadlines . " Financial sector firms -- particularly banking institutions -- have long been regarded as demanding environments , but the pressure has hit fever pitch in recent years . In the aftermath of the 2008 crash , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ those with an employment contract still to their name , like Johnson , were forced to work ever-longer hours in ever-more demanding environments as they watched the world economy crumble around them . It 's little wonder that this took its toll on many workers ' mental wellbeing . Breaking point Mental health conditions , and our awareness of how they affect working lives , have become increasingly widespread across the banking sector in recent years . In the UK , 15.4 million working days were lost in 2018 as a result of stress , depression and anxiety , while 62 percent of financial-sector firms reported an increase in mental-health-related illness in the workplace last year , according to a 2018 survey by Aon Employee Benefits . In 2014 , Johnson found herself suffering from what 's known as a psychogenic condition -- a physical manifestation of her mental stress . Struggling with debilitating stomach pains , she found herself in a doctor 's office undergoing various tests to establish the cause of her condition . When no clear physical causes presented themselves , her doctor enquired as to her stress levels . " It sounds so insane looking back at it now , but I honestly did n't realise how bad it was , " she said . When she began explaining her pressurised working environment , long hours and high-stress day-to-day life , she was referred to a psychologist for assessment , who found that her anxiety levels were " through the roof " . The psychologist compared her to a swan , Johnson said : " On the surface , everything seems very serene , calm and graceful , but below the water , the swan 's feet are frantically paddling away to try and keep it afloat . It 's funny how something as insignificant as that really hits home . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ truly realise the severity of her anxiety . " I 've always been very tough , very resilient , very determined -- I believed I could get through anything , " she said . " But one morning , I was at London Bridge station , and it was really busy . People were pushing and shoving , and I got knocked about four or five times , and I remember all of a sudden I ended up standing in the middle of the station completely unable to breathe , and the tears started falling down my face , and I thought I was actually going crazy . I 'd never experienced anything like that before -- I understood later that it was a panic attack -- but that was the thing that made me realise I really needed some help , " Johnson told World Finance . She began seeing a psychologist for regular sessions , who , she said , " really understood anxiety -- why it happened , what to do about it " . For Johnson , it showed her a path through what she was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and develop coping strategies when anxiety knocked her back . Sadly , Johnson 's story is not unique within financial services . Executives at the uppermost echelons have been beset by mental health conditions , including Lloyds Chief Executive Ant ? nio Horta-Os ? rio , who took two months off in 2011 after suffering from sleep deprivation and exhaustion , and former Barclays Head of Compliance Hector Sants , who was signed off on medical leave in 2013 due to severe stress . It has led some to take their own lives : Martin Senn , the former chief executive of Zurich Insurance , took his own life in 2016 . Senn had resigned from the company the previous year after a major explosion in China had forced the company to pay out $275m in claims , leaving it in financial jeopardy . According to the US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention , sales representatives for financial and business services are 39 percent more likely than other members of the workforce to take their own lives . Sea change In the wake of Senn 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ among financial services professionals across the globe since 2008 , many have speculated over what could have been done to prevent these desperate acts from taking place . Ending the stigma surrounding mental health in the industry and encouraging those in senior positions to discuss the consequences of high-pressure environments is certainly high on that list . " I definitely think there 's a benefit in leading from the top , " said Johnson . " Someone more junior might be afraid of how it would reflect upon them if they admitted they were struggling with the workload ; they might worry that it could be career-limiting . " If that discussion were driven by a senior executive , it would establish and reinforce a culture of honesty and an understanding that no one is immune to the pressures of the banking environment . The option for group or individual psychological sessions within the workplace could also help support those in search of coping mechanismspreventing stress from manifesting as a condition such as depression or anxiety . According to a 2018 survey by Westfield Health , 74 percent of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ doing more to support the physical and mental wellbeing of their employees , with 42 percent saying they would use emotional wellbeing services if they were available . Counselling options would give employees somewhere confidential and impartial to turn , creating an environment where they could air concerns that perhaps they did n't feel comfortable speaking to superiors , or even friends , about . Offering this in the workplace would also take the pressure off professionals to seek it out themselves . " I am someone who is quite resourceful in that sense , in that if I have a problem , I will hunt around for a solution , but I 'm also aware of the fact that not everyone is that way , " said Johnson . " I can imagine some people must feel really lost , and not know where to turn . With men in particular , it 's not necessarily the done thing to talk about emotions as much ; they might feel really helpless and awful and then they do n't know how to get out of feeling that way . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ emotional wellbeing , it would make a huge difference , " she added . Companies should be taking action well before that point , though -- not solely to tackle mental health issues where they already exist , but to create a culture where they 're not so common in the first place . This might include taking steps to turn down the heat in high-pressure environments , whether that 's by ensuring executives are n't setting the precedent of absurdly long hours , or introducing flexible and remote working policies for those who do n't need to physically be at their desks every day . Re-examining benefits packages to ensure they 're actually beneficial for staff is a great place to start . " Companies need to be asking themselves whether they 're just box-ticking when it comes to their wellbeing programme , " said Johnson . " There 's no point in giving employees a subsidised gym membership if they 're chained to their desk for 15 hours a day . " Rather , they should consult with staff and focus on introducing practical policies that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the office . As within individual companies , industry-wide change begins at the top . " I think it could trigger a culture change if you had some big players within the industry make some noticeable shifts in mentality , " said Johnson . After all , the companies driving innovation , progress and evolution also have a responsibility to ensure that they 're doing so in a responsible way -- or risk finding that their market-leading position is in jeopardy . Striving for greater returns , better deals and bigger numbers has always been a driving force in financial services -- now it 's time to apply that same ambition to making workplaces the most open and supportive they can possibly be . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'get out of feeling that way' involves an intransitive verb 'get' with no NP object, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a personal state or condition, not an action caused by an external agent.

For Alex Johnson , spending 15 hours at her desk was just another day in the office . " The worst I did was actually 21 hours at my desk , " the former sales manager for a prominent multinational retail bank told World Finance . " It was brutal . Sometimes I 'd be sat at my desk for two hours , not even able to go to the bathroom , because I had to get something done to pass it on to my team . I was always very conscious of the fact that they were all working in support of me , so I needed to get things through as quickly as possible to try and alleviate the pressure from them . But there was nobody ever alleviating the pressure from me . " The companies driving innovation and evolution have a responsibility to ensure that they 're doing so in a responsible way Johnson , whose name has been changed at her request , joined the bank in 2008 , just as the financial crisis hit hard and teams were being trimmed to their bare minimum to cut expenses . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to have a leaner workforce with less staff , but the workload remained the same . " In such an economically challenging environment , the competition to bring in business was even more intense then it had been previously , which meant going above and beyond to win new clients -- even if that involved stretching teams to the absolute limit . Johnson worked on deals lasting anywhere between six and 18 months , which might see her working 18-hour days for the entire period . " From the moment you win the business , the client sings the tune and you dance to it , " she told World Finance . " The client sets the project schedule and you have no choice but to meet the deadlines , or you 're out . Because there will be plenty of other people out there who will make those deadlines . " Financial sector firms -- particularly banking institutions -- have long been regarded as demanding environments , but the pressure has hit fever pitch in recent years . In the aftermath of the 2008 crash , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ those with an employment contract still to their name , like Johnson , were forced to work ever-longer hours in ever-more demanding environments as they watched the world economy crumble around them . It 's little wonder that this took its toll on many workers ' mental wellbeing . Breaking point Mental health conditions , and our awareness of how they affect working lives , have become increasingly widespread across the banking sector in recent years . In the UK , 15.4 million working days were lost in 2018 as a result of stress , depression and anxiety , while 62 percent of financial-sector firms reported an increase in mental-health-related illness in the workplace last year , according to a 2018 survey by Aon Employee Benefits . In 2014 , Johnson found herself suffering from what 's known as a psychogenic condition -- a physical manifestation of her mental stress . Struggling with debilitating stomach pains , she found herself in a doctor 's office undergoing various tests to establish the cause of her condition . When no clear physical causes presented themselves , her doctor enquired as to her stress levels . " It sounds so insane looking back at it now , but I honestly did n't realise how bad it was , " she said . When she began explaining her pressurised working environment , long hours and high-stress day-to-day life , she was referred to a psychologist for assessment , who found that her anxiety levels were " through the roof " . The psychologist compared her to a swan , Johnson said : " On the surface , everything seems very serene , calm and graceful , but below the water , the swan 's feet are frantically paddling away to try and keep it afloat . It 's funny how something as insignificant as that really hits home . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ truly realise the severity of her anxiety . " I 've always been very tough , very resilient , very determined -- I believed I could get through anything , " she said . " But one morning , I was at London Bridge station , and it was really busy . People were pushing and shoving , and I got knocked about four or five times , and I remember all of a sudden I ended up standing in the middle of the station completely unable to breathe , and the tears started falling down my face , and I thought I was actually going crazy . I 'd never experienced anything like that before -- I understood later that it was a panic attack -- but that was the thing that made me realise I really needed some help , " Johnson told World Finance . She began seeing a psychologist for regular sessions , who , she said , " really understood anxiety -- why it happened , what to do about it " . For Johnson , it showed her a path through what she was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and develop coping strategies when anxiety knocked her back . Sadly , Johnson 's story is not unique within financial services . Executives at the uppermost echelons have been beset by mental health conditions , including Lloyds Chief Executive Ant ? nio Horta-Os ? rio , who took two months off in 2011 after suffering from sleep deprivation and exhaustion , and former Barclays Head of Compliance Hector Sants , who was signed off on medical leave in 2013 due to severe stress . It has led some to take their own lives : Martin Senn , the former chief executive of Zurich Insurance , took his own life in 2016 . Senn had resigned from the company the previous year after a major explosion in China had forced the company to pay out $275m in claims , leaving it in financial jeopardy . According to the US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention , sales representatives for financial and business services are 39 percent more likely than other members of the workforce to take their own lives . Sea change In the wake of Senn 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ among financial services professionals across the globe since 2008 , many have speculated over what could have been done to prevent these desperate acts from taking place . Ending the stigma surrounding mental health in the industry and encouraging those in senior positions to discuss the consequences of high-pressure environments is certainly high on that list . " I definitely think there 's a benefit in leading from the top , " said Johnson . " Someone more junior might be afraid of how it would reflect upon them if they admitted they were struggling with the workload ; they might worry that it could be career-limiting . " If that discussion were driven by a senior executive , it would establish and reinforce a culture of honesty and an understanding that no one is immune to the pressures of the banking environment . The option for group or individual psychological sessions within the workplace could also help support those in search of coping mechanismspreventing stress from manifesting as a condition such as depression or anxiety . According to a 2018 survey by Westfield Health , 74 percent of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ doing more to support the physical and mental wellbeing of their employees , with 42 percent saying they would use emotional wellbeing services if they were available . Counselling options would give employees somewhere confidential and impartial to turn , creating an environment where they could air concerns that perhaps they did n't feel comfortable speaking to superiors , or even friends , about . Offering this in the workplace would also take the pressure off professionals to seek it out themselves . " I am someone who is quite resourceful in that sense , in that if I have a problem , I will hunt around for a solution , but I 'm also aware of the fact that not everyone is that way , " said Johnson . " I can imagine some people must feel really lost , and not know where to turn . With men in particular , it 's not necessarily the done thing to talk about emotions as much ; they might feel really helpless and awful and then they do n't know how to get out of feeling that way . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ emotional wellbeing , it would make a huge difference , " she added . Companies should be taking action well before that point , though -- not solely to tackle mental health issues where they already exist , but to create a culture where they 're not so common in the first place . This might include taking steps to turn down the heat in high-pressure environments , whether that 's by ensuring executives are n't setting the precedent of absurdly long hours , or introducing flexible and remote working policies for those who do n't need to physically be at their desks every day . Re-examining benefits packages to ensure they 're actually beneficial for staff is a great place to start . " Companies need to be asking themselves whether they 're just box-ticking when it comes to their wellbeing programme , " said Johnson . " There 's no point in giving employees a subsidised gym membership if they 're chained to their desk for 15 hours a day . " Rather , they should consult with staff and focus on introducing practical policies that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the office . As within individual companies , industry-wide change begins at the top . " I think it could trigger a culture change if you had some big players within the industry make some noticeable shifts in mentality , " said Johnson . After all , the companies driving innovation , progress and evolution also have a responsibility to ensure that they 're doing so in a responsible way -- or risk finding that their market-leading position is in jeopardy . Striving for greater returns , better deals and bigger numbers has always been a driving force in financial services -- now it 's time to apply that same ambition to making workplaces the most open and supportive they can possibly be . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves keeping Huawei out of certain parts and not shutting the company out of contributing, but it lacks the specific verb-object relationship and the movement/prevention interpretations characteristic of the construction. The phrase 'out of contributing' is part of a larger prepositional phrase and does not function as a VP2[-ing] predicate in the required sense.

The leak from the National Security Council on whether Huawei products should be used in the UK 's 5G network produced an odd spectacle : politicians and commentators rushing to stake out strong positions on the arcane details of next generation telecoms infrastructure . In the process , three issues got tangled up , and it is worth looking at them separately . The first is the risk posed by Huawei to Britain 's cyber security . Whoever leaked the NSC deliberations clearly favoured an outright ban on Huawei equipment as Britain rolls out 5G , given the reported links between the company and the Chinese intelligence community . That would mirror the position currently taken in the US and Australia . However I am instinctively wary of simple-sounding solutions to complex problems , and inclined to listen to the experts on the subject . Britain 's security professionals have been dismantling and inspecting Huawei kit since 2010 in a lab known as the Huawei Cyber Security Evaluation Centre . So they know the nature @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about engineering quality than the presence of bugs . As the informative website of the National Cyber Security Centre makes clear , modern telecoms and data systems are hugely complex . Equipment that has any access to content is obviously far more sensitive than the parts that are simply transporting encrypted data . Since Huawei products are cheaper than those of other vendors , an outright ban would certainly increase the costs of 5G for telecoms providers , without necessarily increasing security -- since 5G equipment made by any supplier contains a large proportion of Chinese-made components . My own conclusion is that it may well be right to keep Huawei out of the most sensitive parts of the future 5G network , but not to shut the company out of contributing to a diversity of suppliers across the rest of the system . As so often in national security , the best approach is probably risk management rather than giving the impression that a zero-risk solution is possible . In any case , the biggest risk to cyber security for governments , businesses and the public is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ passwords and keeping them secure . The second issue is how to balance economic and security interests in dealing with states like China where government control of the economy is strong . The Huawei issue brought this into focus because the Chancellor Philip Hammond set off for an investment conference in China the day after the NSC meeting . This prompted the suspicion in some quarters that Britain 's commercial interests in China had been a factor in decision-making on cyber security . I have no idea whether that 's true . But it is a foretaste of what life will be like if and when Britain leaves the EU . China ( and other countries ) have long tried to use access to their markets , or the prospect of winning large contracts , as a lever to influence policies in other areas such as criticism of theirhuman rights record . As a member of the EU , Britain had some protection from these pressures . On the outside , we will find that almost every foreign and security policy decision has to take account of the potential @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ likely to be sharpest in cases like China and Saudi Arabia where we have vital economic and security interests to balance . But we will have to expect that many other countries will take advantage of our need to negotiate wide-ranging free-trade agreements to extract concessions from us in areas of interest to them . Our foreign policy is bound to become more mercantilist , and tensions with other interests including security and the promotion of human rights will become a fact of life . The third aspect is how these tensions will be managed . The answer has to be in the National Security Council . That is the only place in Whitehall where for example the different communities dealing with Britain 's economic and security interests in China can come together around the same table . The NSC can only operate properly if ministers and their advisers have confidence that the discussions on highly sensitive issues will remain confidential , and that everyone will rally to support the final decision . That is why the deliberate leak from the 23rd April NSC was so damaging . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into the handling of national security . It was clearly intended to generate opposition to the policy decided in the meeting , and it was therefore deeply corrosive of trust . The issue of Huawei and the 5G network is important . But the tensions that will arise between Britain 's various priorities if and when we launch out into the world beyond the EU will be far more severe .

Ongoing updates to popular genealogy company Ancestry.com have sent some users into a full-blown identity crisis . Ancestry.com is beginning to roll out changes to its users ' ethnic backgrounds which will continue throughout the course of the next month , reported the Sydney Morning Herald . As a result , some patrons are seeing their prior genetic and ethnic histories undergo an entire transformation , leading users to somewhat jarring realizations . Ongoing updates to popular genealogy company Ancestry.com have sent some users into a full-blown identity crisis , as some realized it resulted in changes to their ethnic background According to a blog post from 2016 the company 's algorithm works by : - Identifying a users DNA and then cross-referencing it with the company 's database . - The algorithm also matches where that specific piece of genetic information begins and ends geographically . - Previous versions were only able to look at small segments of information , while newest algorithms can process larger amounts of data at once . ' Did you know that Ancestry can change @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . ' Received an email to check updates now that DNA is improved . Instead of being 57 percent Scottish and Irish and 10 percent English , and the rest Europe with a few others , I 'm now 62 percent British and 28 percent Scottish/Irish/Wales . WTF ! ' Likewise , in a recent CNBC report , one writer saw a dramatic shift in her heritage , as it jumped from just 8 percent of her heritage originating from Great Britain to 71 percent . According to the company , the changes are a result of two major factors impacting how Ancestry produces its reports , one of them being a new algorithm rolled out in 2018 . ' With this new algorithm and a larger DNA reference panel , Ancestry can now break down geographic ethnicity estimates with more precision , ' a representative told Dailymail.com in an email . The company said that lineage information has been changed since the update rolled out in 2018 , but some users may have just noticed now after not checking their account for many months @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ login to their AncestryDNA account , so if a customer has n't logged into their DNA account since September 2018 they wo n't see the changes , ' a representative added . Share 1.1k shares Ancestry says the other factor behind changes to users ' background is an expanding database . With a larger sampling of genetic information and a clearer picture of family trees around the world , the company says it 's able to hone the results of its genealogical tests further and further , resulting in greater accuracy . In a statement from September , the company said it now has the ability to reference 5 times as many samples compare to its last update . ' We added 13,000 more samples to our reference panel , which increases our ability to identify the genetic signature of a region within one 's DNA , ' said an Ancestry spokesperson . Though the results for users have technically been ' improved , ' the outcome does n't always sit well for those who have placed stock in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ year , the company underwent a similar update to its accuracy -- a change that was met with similar feedback . Though disgruntled users on the receiving end of Ancestry 's changes may disagree with the company 's practices , the shift in some customers ' results is a marker of success for the company and others like it . Both Ancestry and its similarly popular competitor , 23andMe , have exploded in popularity throughout the last several years giving rise of an unprecedented and growing catalog of genetic information . In a study from the MIT Technology Review , an analysis found that a whopping 26 million people have taken an at-home ancestry test as of February this year . If that pace continues , says the report , in just two years , the database could total 100 million people from across the world . Your ancestry may look a little different after an update to Ancestry.com 's databases that it says will increase the accuracy for users . Ancestry is still leading the way among the two players with a reported 14 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ most recent numbers reported by the company . Aside from the recent swell of disgruntled users , genetic companies have also faced skepticism over what happens with their DNA results after they 've been logged by the companies . In some cases genetic information is a valuable asset for ancestry companies , as made apparent through a recent $300 million between the pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline and 23andMe which will be used to study and develop new drugs . A a result , many companies - 23andMe included - have now introduced their own consent forms which allow users to opt-in and out of sharing their information . In the past year , investigators across the country have embraced genetic genealogy , a DNA-dependent forensic technique that identifies suspects through their relatives . The technique involves cross-referencing the DNA profile of an unidentified suspect with public databases containing DNA from users who 've submitted samples to consumer companies such as 23andMe and Ancestry.com to explore their family tree and get informed about potential genetic health concerns . Genetic genealogy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Killer , and police are now using it on fresh cases as well . While many are excited by what genetic genealogy means for the future of forensic investigations , others have expressed concerns about genetic privacy and policy procedures .

We know what happened next . James O'Connor forced extra-time and , in the 116th minute , an O'Connor free-kick was planted into the net by Oulare 's rear end for a miraculous winner . James O'Connor 's extra-time free-kick is deflected in via Souleymane Oulare as Stoke City beat Cardiff City in the 2002 play-off semi-finals . Stoke went on to win the play-off final against Brentford back in Cardiff , at the Millennium Stadium , and book a place in the second tier . It turned out to be a glorious exit for Gudjon Thordarson , the manager who had helped organise an Icelandic takeover of the club only to then fall out with the consortium . He has recalled that week in an interview for the Stoke programme with Dave Coxon . " The games against Cardiff were a real rollercoaster ride , " he said . " It was unbelievable particularly after the first leg . When we lost that game 2-1 people were saying that it was all over , but I knew different .

" That was the stepping stone that we needed - promotion would move the club on to the next level . When the final whistle had sounded and things had settled down we said promotion is our destiny and now we can go on and finish the job off against Brentford .

Souleymane Oulare is congratulated by his team mates after scoring the match-winning goal during La Liga match between Celta Vigo and Las Palmas in January 2001 . ( Image : UK/ALLSPORT ) Thordarson hailed him as ' our Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink ' and said at the time : " Second Division defences will soon find out what he 's all about .

Then Stoke physio Stefan Stefansson said after the Cardiff heroics : " I would never have believed back then he would make such a quick recovery and be back playing and scoring . " But I am absolutely delighted for him after everything he 's been through . There was a big , big smile on his face after the game . He hardly speaks any English , but he does n't need to know how important that goal was for us . " Oulare later recalled his time in the Potteries for a newspaper in Belgium .

Missiles including bottles , coins and stones were hurled at police lines and a police helicopter circled overhead while dog handlers tried to restore order . A safe route was finally established for Stoke fans after 45 minutes and the coaches were given an escort out of the city .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes someone getting out of managing as a breather, which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move or preventing them from doing something. The phrase 'getting out of managing' is more about the subject's own action rather than a transitive construction with a causee.

Chris Wilder has a tattoo of the Sheffield United crest and regards Bramall Lane as his natural home . Photograph : Greig **26;221;TOOLONG It was Sam Allardyce in 2012 , then in charge of West Ham , who infamously said he could have been managing a Champions League club had his surname been " Allardici " . At the EFL awards in April , when Chris Wilder walked away with the manager of the year prize , the compere Colin Murray made a similar joke , stating the straight-talking Sheffield United manager would no doubt be in the conversation for the Paris Saint-Germain job if he had a more exotic name . On stage Billy Sharp , a good sport and an even better striker , played along . It was put to Sharp , the captain , that nobody expected too much from a team with a modest Championship budget after finishing 10th last season . Awards season can often feel premature but Wilder is undoubtedly the manager of the year . With a game to play , his team could beat Norwich to the title . So , where did the confidence for such an unforgettable campaign stem from ? " Everybody in our changing room , " Sharp replied , deadpan . " The belief was there , we were the ones saying that we could go one step further than last season , when we fell away around March . The gaffer has been driving us for the last three seasons since he has been in charge and , hopefully , we can get promotion before he goes to PSG ... " For Wilder , though , it does not get better than this . Born in Stocksbridge and made in Sheffield , Wilder , who has a tattoo of the club crest , has a gallon of Yorkshire grit . Bramall Lane is home ; it is where he stood on the Kop as a kid , where he became friends with Paul Heaton , the Beautiful South frontman ; where he was a ballboy and later played as a full-back after being released by Southampton , where he met Alan Knill -- his assistant at Sheffield United -- in his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the first thing you look at is their attitude and Chris 's was absolutely fantastic , " says Dave Merrington , the former Southampton youth team manager . " He listened , applied himself and he wanted to win . " It was after six years in charge of Halifax Town that Wilder first worked alongside Knill , at Bury in 2008 -- but as a No 2 . " I think it was a breather for him , getting out of managing and doing something different and not making all the decisions like he likes to do , " Knill says . " It kind of cleared his head and allowed him to refocus . I knew one day he was going to go back in ; he is a natural manager . He just wants to organise everything . If there were a load of tables and chairs in a room , he would sort them out so they were right . Chris loves to manage and I love to coach . " Chris Wilder joins his Sheffield United players in celebrating promotion to the Premier @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , flying high in League Two for the side rock bottom of the same division in 2014 , Knill went with him . They hoisted Northampton to promotion inside two seasons , but the pair are far from inseparable . " We went to the Manchester derby last week ; I went to pick him up , " Knill explains . " And I had to ask him for his postcode . It was the first time I had been to his house -- I think he has lived there two years . We are friends but we do n't go out for drinks . We have a life together where we go to work and it has been pretty amazing . You just have to pinch yourself and say : ' Wow , how did we get here ? ' " Those who have worked with Wilder ( who has taken sides up from the ninth , fifth , fourth , third and second tiers ) describe a fiercely competitive character with high standards . " People have to graft , " Wilder said . " I do @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ first taste of management was an overwhelming success , too : he won the quadruple inside 27 weeks at Alfreton Town before moving to Halifax . On Fridays at Oxford , youth players were tasked with typing up a dossier on the opposition , detailing man-marking instructions and set-play routines . Sometimes Wilder would send it back -- apostrophes were missing or tabs incorrectly formatted . When he walked into Oxford 11 years ago , we were mid-table in the Conference . He 's had four promotions since . Incredible " He made sure his teams were prepared and was not necessarily too worried about feelings , " says Kelvin Thomas , who interviewed Wilder for the Oxford job , before working with him as Northampton chairman . " It was more about just getting the job done . He has a steely confidence in his decision making that allows him to get the best out of the players that he has . When he walked into Oxford 11 years ago , we were mid-table in the Conference . He has had four promotions since . It is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ big on team spirit . " We already had the League Two title sewn up with Northampton and we trained on the pitch on the Wednesday , doing a bit of team shape before the last day of the season that Saturday , " recalls Danny Rose , who also played under Wilder at Oxford . " After that session we were all sat in the centre circle with our tops off -- it was a boiling hot day -- and he wheeled out a big crate of beers . He said : ' Lads , we have obviously achieved what we set out to . Let 's just enjoy this moment now . ' " Throughout this season Wilder said his side " should n't have been anywhere near it " but nobody deserves " it " more than him . Long before John Egan delivered his infectious ditty and prior to the promotion party hitting full swing last Sunday , an emotional Wilder , who labelled the top flight a " champagne division " , had to fight back tears . " I think it is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ unbelievable experiences , " he said . " When the fixtures come out , we will have a little look and really rub our hands together because we 're back in the big time . " The Fiver : sign up and get our daily football email . * Luton and Barnsley have sealed promotion but the picture at the bottom of League One is as clear as mud with a game to go . Three points separate five teams , including Plymouth and Scunthorpe , who meet at Home Park on Saturday . AFC Wimbledon were seven points from safety when Wally Downes took over in December but they sit two points above the relegation zone with a trip to relegated Bradford . *Leyton Orient are back in the Football League but who will join them ? The National League play-offs begin on Wednesday , with the winner of AFC Fylde v Harrogate set to take on Solihull Moors , while the winner of Eastleigh v Wrexham will play Salford City . The final is on 11 May . * Dean Smith @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the firing line against Norwich on Sunday . With Aston Villa 's play-off place secured and the midfielder a booking from a three-match ban , the decision is a no-brainer . * Will Swansea ensure a three-way fight for sixth place goes to the final day ? If Derby fail to win in Wales on Wednesday , Bristol City and Middlesbrough could squeeze into the play-offs on Sunday , when Derby host West Brom , Boro take on Rotherham and Bristol City travel to Hull . |

Follow your club now for first access to all our news , views and analysis While Maurizio Sarri may insist that the Premier League remains the priority for Chelsea , it appears increasingly likely that his capricious first season in English football will conclude in Baku .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'workload, high-stakes accountability, insufficient funding, and continuing real-terms cuts to teachers' and school leaders' pay' is the NP subject, 'drives' is V1, 'many committed professionals' is the NP object, and 'out of teaching' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, as the subject causes the object to move out of the activity denoted by the VP2[-ing] predicate. The verb 'drives' fits into the category of exerting force or pressure, and the NP object 'many committed professionals' functions as a causee. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

More than a third of school leaders are thinking of leaving the profession early , citing the pressure of workload , stress and school funding , Tes can reveal . Only half of the headteachers surveyed in new research are confident that they will stay in their roles until retirement -- amid concerns that schools are already struggling to fill leadership positions . The NAHT headteachers ' union has published figures showing that for the fifth consecutive year , schools are struggling to recruit across all roles , from teachers to senior leaders . And the retention of experienced teachers is also revealed as a growing concern . Paul Whiteman , the general secretary of the NAHT , told Tes that action was needed to stops heads from walking away . He said : " More and more is being expected of schools and their leaders and yet funding and support for schools is being cut . This creates more and more pressure . At the same time , the methods used to hold schools to account have become increasingly punitive . One bad @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lead to losing your job . " When the system is causing this many leaders to consider walking away , something needs to change . " A breakdown of the survey responses seen by Tes shows half of school leaders are unsure about their future in the profession . Just over a third ( 34 per cent ) of members are considering quitting before retirement and another 16 per cent were unsure about their future . This is at a time when two-thirds of schools struggle to recruit school leaders and 12 per cent failed to recruit at all . The most common reasons for heads looking to quit early were the need for a better work-life balance , mentioned by 78 per cent of heads , and workload pressures , mentioned by 77 per cent . A high proportion of respondents also highlighted stress ( 62 per cent ) and funding pressures ( 59 per cent ) . The NAHT is also calling on the government to do more to retain teachers -- particularly those in their mid or late career . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the most rewarding careers imaginable , yet workload , high-stakes accountability , insufficient funding , and continuing real-terms cuts to teachers ' and school leaders ' pay drives many committed professionals out of teaching . " The secretary of state has made finding a solution to the recruitment and retention crisis one of his department 's key priorities , and NAHT has welcomed the broad intent of the DfE 's Department for Education recently published recruitment and retention strategy ; the centrepiece of which is the Early Career Framework , which could dramatically improve the experiences of newly qualified teachers . " But more is needed to retain mid and late career teachers . " Patrick Foley , headteacher of Southborough Primary School in Bromley , is proposing a motion at this weekend 's NAHT conference calling for the government to take steps specifically to help retain experienced teachers , including opportunities for sabbatical and career breaks , and restoring the differentials between education pay grades . He said : " Last year , the government ignored the STRB 's recommendation that all teachers and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ instead awarded more experienced teachers and leaders a real-terms pay cut . " While the pay rise for new teachers was sorely needed , this was a real blow for retention of existing staff . We need more experienced teachers to stay in the profession -- they are the school leaders of the future . But they wo n't stay unless they are better treated . " The NAHT survey also reveals that : 37 per cent of school leaders say they are struggling to recruit due to the number of teachers leaving the profession -- up from 15 per cent in 2014 . Schools are struggling to fill leadership roles . More than a quarter of schools ( 27 per cent ) failed to recruit for head of school positions -- up 15 percentage points from 2017 . After failing to recruit , 72 per cent of schools then went to supply agencies . Almost half of schools ' senior leadership teams covered teaching hours because of a failure to recruit . The number of schools who say budget pressures have affected @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 9 per cent five years ago to 35 per cent in 2018 . A Department for Education spokesperson said : " The education secretary has been clear that there are no great schools without great teachers . Despite there being more than 450,000 teachers -- 11,900 more than in 2011 -- with increasing numbers returning to the profession , it is his top priority is to make sure teaching remains an attractive and fulfilling profession . " We are also ensuring teachers are fairly rewarded and recently announced a rise of up to 3.5 per cent for classroom teachers , funded by a ? 500 million government grant , in addition to the tax-free bursaries worth up to ? 26,000 for trainee teachers in priority subjects .

Sobie Cummings , 11 , plays with her dog , Dallas , at the family 's home in Waxhaw , N.C. , Friday , March 29 , 2019 . A psychiatrist suggested that a service dog might help to ease Sobie 's crippling anxiety and feelings of isolation . But when they brought home a $14,500 Briard from Mark Mathis ' Ry-Con Service Dogs , Okami broke from Glenn Cummings ' grasp and began mauling Dallas . ( AP Photo/Chuck Burton ) APEX , N.C. ( AP ) -- All the counseling , therapy and medication did little to ease 9-year-old Sobie Cummings ' crippling anxiety and feelings of isolation . And so a psychiatrist suggested that a service dog might help the autistic child connect with other kids . To Glenn and Rachel Cummings , Mark Mathis seemed like a dream come true . His kennel , Ry-Con Service Dogs , was just a couple of hours away , and he , too , had a child with autism . But what clinched the decision were Mathis ' credentials . " Is Ry-Con a certified program @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In 2013 , Mark was certified as a NC state approved service dog trainer with a specialty in autism service dogs for children . " Ten months and $14,500 later , the family brought home a shaggy mop of a dog that Sobie had come to view as her " savior . " But when they opened the front door , Okami broke from Glenn Cummings ' grasp and began mauling one of the family 's elderly dogs -- all as Sobie watched from the stairs in mute horror . It was only after they had returned Okami and asked for a refund that the family learned the truth : Mathis was not a state-certified dog trainer . In fact , North Carolina has no such certification program -- and neither does any other state . The service dog industry -- particularly in the field of " psychiatric " service dogs for people with autism and post-traumatic stress disorder -- has exploded in recent years . But a near complete absence of regulation and oversight has left needy , desperate families vulnerable to incompetence and fraud . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ West , " says David Favre , a law professor at Michigan State University and editor of its Animal Legal and Historical Center website . Properly training a service dog can take up to 1 ? years and cost upward of $50,000 , depending on the tasks it is taught to perform . But the Americans with Disabilities Act does not require that a service dog be professionally trained or certified . And , according to the U.S. Department of Justice , local and state agencies are prohibited from requiring that the dogs be registered . " It needs to be specially trained to do tasks that relate to the person 's disability , but it does n't say anything about who does the training or the quality of training or the efficacy of it , " says Lynette Hart , a professor of veterinary medicine at the University of California , Davis . " So it 's a very broad , wide-open barn door . " The ADA allows people to train their own service dogs . But Hart , who has co-authored studies of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wherewithal or confidence to do so , and that puts needy families " in a calamitous situation . " ' ' They 're easy prey , " says Hart , whose late brother had autism . In 2012 , the state of Illinois sued Lea Kaydus and Animals for Autism over a " heartless scam " in which she took several thousand dollars from families but never matched them with dogs . Kaydus was ordered to pay restitution . Two years ago , Noelle 's Dogs Four Hope of Colorado Springs agreed to surrender its license after state inspectors confirmed the placement of dogs with " incontinence , lack of basic house training , separation anxiety and aggression . " And last year , Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring filed suit against Service Dogs by Warren Retrievers Inc. , which advertises dogs trained to help people suffering from diabetes , PTSD , seizure disorders and autism . The lawsuit alleges that the diabetes-alert dogs , for which Warren charged up to $27,000 , " were often poorly trained , ill-behaved , and unequipped to help manage a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pets . " Attorneys for owner Charles D. Warren Jr . say the state 's case is based on the complaints of " a few disgruntled and fanatical consumers " who " can not be satisfied and refuse all attempts at accommodation and reason . " A trial date has not been scheduled . Authorities in North Carolina are now investigating Ry-Con .
Mathis , a biotech engineer , founded Ry-Con after his older son , who is autistic , was successfully paired with a service dog . " It was remarkable , " Mathis told a local magazine several years ago . " We had a new child . " Incorporated in 2014 , Ry-Con worked exclusively with Briards -- a long-haired French herding breed that can weigh anywhere from 55 to 100 pounds . The American Kennel Club site says the Briard " packs so much loyalty , love , and spirit into its ample frame that it 's often described as a ' heart wrapped in fur . ' " In a May 2017 news release , Mathis claimed that Ry-Con @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was the largest provider of autism service dogs on the East Coast and boasted a " 100% success rate . " There are n't a lot of programs that specialize in training dogs for children with autism , so the Cummings family felt lucky to find one so close to home . The Charlotte couple searched online and found positive local news articles , as well as a profile of Ry-Con by CNNMoney . Mathis ' website was loaded with glowing testimonials . And then there was the state certification . " For us to see that he had the backing of the state ... was huge , " Rachel Cummings says . The couple contacted Ry-Con in July 2017 . Within days , Mathis called to say he had the perfect dog for Sobie , even though he 'd not met her and his contracts promised Ry-Con would " hand select a puppy for the ( consumer ) . " Rachel Cummings says she found that odd but : " I was blinded by hope . " Mathis sent them a photo . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ word for her favorite animal -- the wolf . Several months later , the family traveled to Apex to meet the dog . She was still a puppy and had not yet undergone training , but Sobie got to spend time with her . Her mother tears up picturing her daughter beaming as she and Okami played at a park . " Her life has been not the easiest ... being bullied and wanting friends desperately , " she says . " And so it was just a beautiful thing to see . " Sobie plastered her walls and school folders with photos of Okami . She kept a framed picture of the dog beside her bed , hugging and kissing and talking to it before going to sleep . But on subsequent visits , Cummings says , Okami did not seem to be progressing . The International Association of Assistance Dog Partners says a service animal should have a minimum of 120 hours of schooling over six months or more . The dog must respond to basic commands -- " Sit , Stay , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to work without exhibiting " aggressive behavior toward people or other animals . " Studies have shown that up to half wash out of training . During training trips to local stores , Okami pulled at her leash and refused to lie down . At a mall , she growled and lunged at people , and defecated in a hallway . Still , Sobie and the dog had bonded , and the family hoped more training would smooth out the rough edges . Okami " graduated " last May ; the family brought her home Mother 's Day weekend . Cummings says her two dogs were lying in the front hall when Okami attacked , unprovoked . She says it took both her and her husband to pry the Briard 's jaws from the other dog 's throat . When Mathis refused to refund their money , they sued . They were unaware that they were n't the first to have issues with Ry-Con .
In November 2017 , Christian and Shannon Poirier say the dog Mathis sold them bit their 11-year-old son @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a refund , they sued him in small claims court and won . The Cummings case never got that far . Last Nov. 13 , Mathis sent an email to clients announcing he was closing down . At the time , he had about 40 dogs in training . He said the operation was no longer sustainable , blaming " issues with accounts receivables , and a select number of recently returned dogs and the unfortunate response that followed . " The following day , he filed for bankruptcy protection . Clients were told to come collect their dogs . Not long after , complaints began pouring into state Attorney General Josh Stein 's office . Some customers claimed they arrived at Ry-Con to find dogs emaciated , skittish and matted with urine and feces . Many said their pups lunged and nipped at children and other animals , were n't housetrained and could not respond to basic commands . Nancy Evans says her 19-year-old daughter , Katie , had waited over a year for her dog , Bailey . Katie suffered from PTSD @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the bus by herself . Once home with them in Toronto , the dog showed extreme aggression toward Katie 's older brother . An expert who examined Bailey declared her unfit for service , and a Briard rescue group took her away . About a month after losing Bailey , Katie committed suicide . Her mother is convinced things would have been different had Bailey worked out . " My Katie would still be alive today if we had been given a trained service dog , " Evans says . Stein 's office has received more than four dozen complaints against Ry-Con . In a response to one , Mathis accused clients of breaking their contracts , falling behind on payments or misrepresenting conditions in their homes , and suggested that some were attempting to blackmail him . In an email to The Associated Press , he insisted that his troubles all stemmed from recent financial issues . " Some of ( the dogs ) had to go home earlier than their original planned graduation , " Mathis wrote . " Some of them went home @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ... This is not the same as selling untrained dogs , and certainly not a willful act or scam . " However , the state attorney general alleges that Mathis not only misrepresented his credentials but also falsified breeder information , providing some families animals that were trained primarily as police or security dogs , not service dogs . Stein 's office also contends that Mathis may have siphoned as much as $240,000 of the nonprofit 's money for personal expenses , including groceries , haircuts and video games . Meanwhile , Stein said the families are out more than $950,000 -- money he will try to recover . " Most if not all of the consumers had no prior experience with service dogs or the training of service animals . They therefore had no expectations as to how the industry operated , " the complaint states . Mathis declined to respond to allegations of inflated credentials and success rates , instead referring the AP to several satisfied clients . Scott Gordon of Rolesville , North Carolina , turned to Mathis for help with his 6-year-old @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Zuzu was a perfect fit . " I used to have to lay down with him for at least 45 minutes to get him to fall asleep , " he says . " Now , I kiss them both good night , and off he goes to sleep . " Whitney Reynolds says a touch or a lick from their Briard , Cosette , can stop one of her 7-year-old son 's meltdowns cold . " She 's a blessing , " the Cary , North Carolina , woman says . But to the Cummings family and others , Ry-Con has been a curse . Rachel Cummings says Sobie did n't leave her room or eat for several days after the attack ; a doctor has diagnosed the little girl with PTSD . One day , Cummings found an empty picture frame under her daughter 's bed . Sobie had torn the photo of Okami into tiny pieces , locked them in a keepsake box and thrown away the key . Now 11 , Sobie sleeps with a stuffed owl -- her new favorite @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was , " her mother says . " The light 's not back in her eyes yet . " And what became of Okami ? Rachel and Glenn Cummings learned that Mathis had sold her to another family , with similar results . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'sustain yourself out of performing your own show' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a means of sustenance, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Mark Watson has never been a comedian to take the easy route of opening a show by asking his audience how they are and where they come from . Mark Watson In the past , he 's started shows by communicating with his crowd over Twitter , crawling out of a suitcase , and running on a treadmill . With his new touring extravaganza , The Infinite Show , Mark is getting up close and personal with his fans by handing them cards with questions on them beforehand , whether they 're in the queue , hanging around the bar or perhaps even sitting comfortably in their seats . The show is coming to Birmingham Old REP on Sunday , and the 39-year-old comic is excited to get back on the road . " I do feel that the more I see shows and study the form of them , a slow start is very difficult to come back from , " he told us . " So the idea of me handing out cards is that it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and they 're already in that space . " I think it has a positive psychological impact on the audience and it 's a good way of breaking down that awkwardness . " On those cards will be questions that are geared towards assessing the empathy of his crowd toward their fellow humans and celebrating our idiosyncrasies . Having already road-tested the show for a month at the Edinburgh Fringe , Mark knows that the responses he gets can rarely be second-guessed and this gives the evening a vibrant energy . Advertising " The best ones are the inexplicably fierce opinions about something trivial which nearly everyone has , " he said . " Or it will be something where the audience goes ' what ? ' The worst ones are , and at least one person every night says this , ' there 's nothing odd about me , I 'm always right ' or it 'll be something about hating audience participation or filling out postcards . Those ones are immediately pulped . " Although the cards do state that each @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ keen to tease out someone who has offered up something of comedic or social value . " Because we 've said you can remain anonymous , it might sometimes be hard to find the person who wrote something interesting , " the comic told us . Advertising " Other times you see something really contentious and think ' I 've no chance of finding that person ' but they immediately put their hand up . " One of my favourites was when someone wrote that the Titanic never sank , that it had been swapped for another ship and that it was an insurance thing . But I chatted with her and she was sort-of convincing . " I Googled it later and , sure enough , it 's a branch of conspiracy theory in the same ilk of the 9/11 Truthers . I still do n't believe it but there 's room there for a good few minutes talking about that . " It 's much more stimulating to do a show that 's different every time : it offers me unprecedented opportunities @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ around with an audience has been just one of the things that has elevated Mark Watson to great heights in the British stand-up scene since his arrival in 2002 upon winning the Daily Telegraph Open Mic competition . Mark is also a published author having written novels such as Bullet Points and A Light-Hearted Look At Murder , while his TV credits are certainly a varied bunch , including everything from the first episode of Michael McIntyre 's Comedy Roadshow and guest-presenting Never Mind The Buzzcocks to We Need Answers and Celebrity Island With Bear Grylls . But it 's on stage that he is at his most hilariously inventive . As well as building up an archive of responses from his audience with The Infinite Show , he 's also lifting the lid a little on his own personal life , something he 's largely shied away from in his previous live work . In particular , he 'll be exploring his divorce and the relationship he now has with his young son . " At first it was very difficult to do , as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ my ex : I do n't want to be one of those comedians who rages against their former partner , " Mark commented . " The tone is meant to be more rueful than attacking . There are lots of dilemmas ; the biggest difficulty of talking about my son on stage is that he 's now of an age where he could put my name into YouTube and have access to this stuff . " But parenting consumes so much of your life , even if you 're not the primary carer , and it 's inevitable that you 'll discuss it a bit on stage . " Now a well-established presence on the comedy touring circuit - he 's taken acclaimed shows such as I 'm Not Here and Do I Know You ? to the theatres and arts venues of the UK - Mark Watson is well attuned to the pros and cons of zipping around the country and entertaining audiences night after night . While he misses his family when he 's away from them , the fact that he 's able @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is a strong vote of confidence . " Touring represents the kind of life that you hope you 'd have when you first start off . Being seen by pretty much your own audience and being able to sustain yourself out of performing your own show rather than gigging on mixed bills is what most comedians want , " he said . " I 'm fortunate to have started stand-up in a climate where that was just about to become more and more possible . I do n't mind the travelling and being in hotels ; I 've had that lifestyle for so long that I almost do n't know myself if I 'm not in perpetual motion . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It involves the verb 'get' with an NP object 'a thrill' and the phrase 'out of playing' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The NP object 'a thrill' does not function as a causee, and the sentence does not convey causing someone to move out of an activity or preventing someone from doing something.

Many chalked it up to a momentary lapse of reason , but he says the idea had been brewing for quite some time . " It 's something I 've thought about for years , " says Gilmour in his soft-spoken but deliberate way . " These guitars have served me very well . They 've given me songs and tunes , but I thought it would be good for them to move on and create new music with different people . Hopefully , they 'll also raise a fair bit of money , which I plan donate to charity , and that will do some direct good in this world with all its difficulties . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in 2004 at the James Christie salesroom at Rockefeller Center in New York has an event caused such anticipation in the guitar community . Set for June 20 at Christie 's in Manhattan , Gilmour 's 120-plus guitars are expected to reap millions . Among the most sought-after instruments will be his extremely rare #0001 Fender Stratocaster , used on Paul McCartney and Wings ' 1979 album , Back to the Egg ; a Candy Apple Red 1983 ' 62 Reissue Strat that served as his main performance guitar for more than two decades ; and the 12-string Martin acoustic heard on Pink Floyd 's " Wish You Were Here . " But the star of the auction will no doubt be Gilmour 's famed ' 69 guitar , known as " the Black Strat . " Used on some of the world 's biggest-selling albums , and featured on Pink Floyd classics like " Money , " " Comfortably Numb " and " Shine on You Crazy Diamond , " the instrument exists in a galaxy of its own . Like Jimmy Page 's EDS-1275 double-neck or Stevie @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the most famous and coveted instruments of the last 100 years . Gilmour admits it will be tough to let these iconic instruments go , but he 's 100 percent certain it 's the right thing to do -- and the right time to do it . A familiar sight : David Gilmour with his legendary Black Strat , which he bought in New York City in May 1970 while touring with Pink Floyd laughs The big picture is I want to raise some money . There are a lot of major problems in our world today in terms of refugees and starvation . I have a charitable foundation and the money will be distributed from there to the people that need it most throughout the world . It will be just a drop in the bucket , but many will potentially benefit from this sale . That 's more important to me these days . Do you have any sentimental attachment to your instruments , or have you always thought of them more as tools of the trade ? That 's a difficult @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Fender Stratocaster , and then I bought one and it was great . I still romanticize Stratocasters and some of these guitars to some extent , but the more rational me does think of them as " tools of the trade . " While my Black Strat is special , I do n't feel I wo n't be able to achieve just as much on a different guitar . So , yeah , I guess I 'm not overly sentimental . laughs I can understand that . Your Black Strat has been so heavily modified , in some ways , it 's not even the Strat you bought in 1970 . That 's right . The neck has changed two or three times , and I think maybe more than one pickup has been changed on it . There have been several modifications done to it , most of which have been undone again at some point . But that 's part of the reason it 's my special guitar . I worked out all my crazy ideas on it . I did add a little switch that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , which is n't possible on a normal Strat . It was an idea . I have n't removed that idea , but I rarely used it . In recent years , you were playing the Black Strat with a strap that used to belong to Jimi Hendrix . Will that be part of the deal ? No ! laughs No , I 'm hanging on to that , I 'm afraid . My wife gave that to me as a birthday present a few years ago , and it 's staying with me . Of the 120 guitars that are being auctioned , which are the most valuable to you ? Well , obviously , the Black Strat . It has served me extraordinarily well . It 's on all the Pink Floyd records from the Seventies . The opening notes of " Shine on You Crazy Diamond " fell out of that guitar one day in 1974 , and the solo on " Comfortably Numb " was done on that guitar . It 's really on everything during the Seventies . My 1969 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it for the lead parts on " Wish You Were Here , " and it was my main acoustic guitar through the Seventies . I still use it all the time . It 's the nicest guitar I have for just plain , straight strumming . I 'm also auctioning my Martin D12-28 , which is the 12-string I wrote " Wish You Were Here " on . And then there 's my Ovation 1619-4 six-string acoustic that was very useful to me for a long time because of its internal electronics . It 's also important because that 's the guitar I restrung using some of the high strings from a 12-string set , which inspired me to write " Comfortably Numb . " I used it for almost every live performance of " Comfortably Numb " through the years . There are so many more options these days . It was often difficult to find great guitars in the Seventies . Yeah , I guess so . But I do unrepentantly like the old ones . Older instruments have a tonality of their own that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ right , these things go in waves . Acoustic guitar makers like Gibson and Martin went through periods where they were manufacturing beautiful guitars , and then they went through periods where they tightened their overheads and made things that were n't so good . Eventually they learned their lesson , and in the long run they went back to making great guitars again . Luckily , I know the periods of guitar , and the types of guitar that I like , and I guess I 'll eventually hunt down another 1969 D-35 that is as good as the one I originally owned . You just need to look in the right places , and as you say , there are a lot of them about these days . I was wondering about the blonde Tele that your parents gave you for your 21st birthday . It was actually a white Tele . Unfortunately , that is long gone . I shipped that one to America in the late Sixties , and TWA lost it . I 've never seen or heard of that one again @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Fender . Will you be parting with any of your lap steels ? Some of them . The Jedsons and Fenders are going . I 've got a few Rickenbackers , but I might hang on to one of those . Do mind if I ask what you are planning to hang on to ? It does n't sound like much . There are a few things . I 'm keeping a lovely old Gibson steel guitar that has a really beefy sound . I 'm holding onto a black Gretsch Duo Jet that I really love , along with a 1945 Martin D-18 . I also could n't bear to part with my ' 55 Fender Esquire that I nicknamed " The Workmate . " It 's the one you see on the cover of my About Face album , and it was used on " Run Like Hell " from The Wall , among other things . Are there any surprises in the collection , or maybe some hidden gems people would not be familiar with ? I do n't know that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of interesting instruments in the collection -- things that came into my possession one way or another . The Melobar guitar is quite cool ! It 's sort of a combination of a steel guitar and a standard guitar . The neck is at a 45-degree angle so you put a strap on it and play lap steel while standing up . It 's a good idea , but I never used it that much . There 's also a Django Reinhardt-style plastic Maccaferri somewhere . Does the auction signal your retirement in any way ? Not really . I still write stuff all the time , and there 's no statement of intention to retire . I 'm just unburdening myself of a huge collection that at some point will have to go . This just felt like a good moment to raise some good , hard cash for people who need it . There are a lot of beautiful old guitars in the world , and I can track down some replacements if I need to . And if I really feel desperate for something @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sold it to and make them an offer they ca n't refuse ! laughs Inevitably , I 'll buy more guitars ; I just do n't want to have a stock that I keep in a cupboard or in their cases for too long . Can you relate to why people might want to buy these guitars ? I mean , would you get a thrill out of playing , say , the guitar Albert King used on " Crosscut Saw " ? Hmmm , I 'm not sure . I ca n't really remember having the desire to play somebody 's guitar . Perhaps it 's because I 'm so wedded to the idea that my sounds come more from my fingers than from the guitar . I guess I would be happy to play a Hank Williams guitar or something like that , but I 'm just not overly sentimental about the guitars and their history . As I said earlier , I 'm more a " tools of the trade " sort of guy . In addition to the Rock and Roll Hall of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rock and roll and music of the 20th century . Do you think that 's valid ? An instrument is an accessible token of where the music came from . Obviously , they ca n't stick the person in the museum and be like , " Laaa . " I 'm kind of okay with it . I know that people go to museums and look at instruments and feel a kind of kinship with the music they 've grown up with . I do n't have anything against it , but I think instruments are meant to be played . It 's interesting . I have no control over who is going to buy these guitars , but hopefully some real musicians will get some of them and they will go on to create some new music and get real joy out of them . But one has to face the reality that some of these will go to people who just want to put them up on a wall or behind glass . Who knows ? But maybe , in the long term , they 'll @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'conceived out of' which does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with either movement/extraction or prevention.

POPPING to the Co-op for a few groceries is pretty typical for a lot of us . But those relatively small-sized shops for daily essentials are doing the retailer no harm at all .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'conceived out of' which does not involve a transitive verb with an NP object and a VP2[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of putting employee safety first' functions more as a prepositional phrase indicating the reason or basis for the conception, not as part of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'cut out' in a different context, referring to reducing heartache related to cheating, not involving a causee or a VP2[-ing] predicate with movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It mentions 'cut out the heartache out of cheating', which does not involve a causee participating in the event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of cheating' is part of a prepositional phrase modifying 'heartache', not a VP[-ing] predicate.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'Peter Robinson' (NP subject) 'talked' (V1) 'Ellis' (NP object) 'out of resigning' (VP2[-ing] predicate). It also fits the prevention interpretation, as Peter Robinson prevented Ellis from resigning by means of talking. The NP object 'Ellis' functions as a causee, and the sentence aligns with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Liverpool 's Kenny Dalglish and Graeme Souness celebrate after winning the 1979 Charity Shield . One is a club legend , the other absent from the pantheon . Photograph : Peter Robinson/Empics Sport Perhaps you may have seen that clip recently of Graeme Souness getting so worked up in the television studios about the jargon of modern football , so aggrieved by what he perceives to be the loss of old-fashioned values , that he has a fit of pique and ends up flinging his pen across the desk in front of him . It is classic Souness : dyspeptic , unflinching , never one for concealing his feelings . It is a big part of what makes him so watchable as a pundit . Everything will be fine , then something will prick his temper . Something you or I may not even notice that , in his eyes , is an affront to the profession . Souness is n't wired to tolerate mediocrity . He can not accept the idea there are footballers who might not possess the devotion that underpinned his own successes . Nor is he ever going to hold back when @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about to throw his pen . The last time I saw him in the flesh the handshake was everything you would imagine : vice-like . For someone with such a hard reputation , there is actually a soothing , mellifluous quality to that Edinburgh accent . Yet he still has an aura . It is all in the eyes , testing you , probing you , letting you know that , if you ever did upset him , it is not completely out of the question that he might invite you to step outside , the old-fashioned way , as I once saw happen in his days as Blackburn manager with a journalist in a post-match press conference . Souness , to give him his due , did eventually put everyone at ease by clarifying there would be no violence . Though it was n't easy to be sure if we could take him at his word , or if he had simply worked out the rest of us could be useful witnesses . He turns 66 on Monday and it is just a pity , perhaps , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ always be viewed through hard , suspicious eyes when it comes to the city where he spent the more gratifying parts of his playing career . Souness was a great player for Liverpool , a truly great player , in a golden age for the club : three European Cups , five league championships , three League Cups and four seasons when he won a place in the Professional Footballers ' Association team of the year . Souness was the captain in a dominant period of the club 's history , a midfield titan who can be unfairly characterised sometimes because of his reputation for being fearless and , on occasions , downright nasty . There was more to Souness than embedding his studs in the limbs of various opponents . His greatness was because he combined those warrior instincts with subtlety , vision and football intelligence . He was , in the words of the sportswriter David Miller , " a bear of a man with the touch of a violinist " . ' You will not see a banner paying homage to Graeme Souness on the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ordinary circumstances , a player of his achievement should be revered at Anfield . Sadly , these are not ordinary circumstances . Souness does not tend to be on the guest list when the old boys are invited to Anfield these days . You will not see a banner paying homage to him on the Kop and , though his achievements can never be airbrushed from Liverpool 's glory years , if you were to click on the website that is devoted to the club 's history , its verdict on Souness can be boiled down to this : being a great footballer does not automatically make that person a great football man . Souness will always be part of the nostalgia , but most Liverpool followers cut him free a long time ago . Or , rather , he cut himself free , depending on your viewpoint . A younger generation of football supporters might not even fully understand what happened to make it this way . It has , after all , been nearly three decades since the acrimony began and , once the relationship had broken @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . It would be nice to think there is still time for that to change . Realistically , though , I am not sure . It is not easy to see a day when it will ever be fixed properly . All of which makes it a tricky subject to write about given the sensitivities attached to this story , the considerable evidence that time is not a healer in this instance and , above all , the attitude on Merseyside that they have it hard enough without being let down by someone they took in as one of their own . In particular when it involves the club 's relationship with the newspaper that had previously given its readers " The Truth " , its notorious version of the Hillsborough disaster , involving untrue stories of supporters stealing from the dead and urinating on corpses . For those not familiar with the background , it is 27 years now since Souness was paid for an interview in the Sun ( he says the money went to Alder Hey children 's hospital ) . It was dumb @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not to understand there would be a serious backlash . Yet it was the timing , more than anything , that explains why so many people have never fully accepted his apology and why Liverpool , the club that love to portray themselves as a family , no longer embrace him in the way they do their other greats . The Sun 's story about Graeme Souness and his new girlfriend ran on the third anniversary of Hillsborough . Photograph : The Sun/News Licensing Souness had conducted the interview while he was convalescing from the heart surgery that he had towards the end of the 1991-92 season . The idea was for the interview to run in tandem with Liverpool reaching the FA Cup final . Yet their replayed semi-final against Portsmouth , played on a Monday evening , went to extra time and penalties , taking it past the newspaper 's first deadline , and that meant the interview was pushed back a day -- to 15 April , which just happened to be the third anniversary of the Hillsborough tragedy . It was a front-page @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a staged photograph of Souness smooching with his new girlfriend and published , oafishly , on the day Anfield was hosting a memorial service . Even now , it beggars belief that any Liverpool manager , especially one who was supposed to understand the club , could mess up so spectacularly . Against that kind of background , can you ever see a day when Souness will be forgiven ? In an ideal world , yes , though I hesitate to say that for fear of it coming across that I am recommending that is what should happen . For starters , I doubt very much that Liverpool 's supporters would appreciate being told how to think when I am sure they can do that for themselves . It is not my role to determine what should happen next and , just because it is football , that does n't mean it is immune to what happens in real life -- human beings upsetting other human beings , grudges festering , attitudes hardening . It does n't always end in a group hug . What can be said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sky recently you would have seen what looked like genuine and deeply felt remorse . Souness is clearly pained that he could have been so reckless with people 's grief . " I should have resigned there and then , " he writes in his 2017 autobiography . " It ultimately soured my relationship with the Liverpool supporters forever and it 's something I deeply regret . If I could turn one thing round in my football career , it would be that . " The question , perhaps , is whether he cares enough , all these years on , to want to do anything about it . Even then , it might not do him any good whatsoever to pick at an old scab . But it puzzles me slightly that someone in that position would not , say , write to the Liverpool Echo or use his column in the Sunday Times to offer , in full , some kind of long-form contrition . Where is the mea culpa ? If he wishes it could be different , has he ever thought the only person who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Hillsborough groups or Spirit of Shankly or any of the other supporter organisations ? Or maybe , again , he is not wired that way . Has he just accepted , as seems to be the case , that it is done now and too late to change anything ? Sign up to The Recap , our weekly email of editors ' picks . The explanation Souness put forward initially was that he had been managing in Scotland at the time of Hillsborough and , not being on Merseyside , misjudged the depth of outrage that led to Liverpool supporters boycotting the Sun . All these years later , it does n't wash . It did n't then , either , particularly as there were reports that he had banned his players from speaking to the newspaper . Yet it was true that in 1992 the club were still dealing with the Sun . Mike Ellis , who was then the Sun 's Merseyside football correspondent , was never ostracised and Souness claimed Ian Rush and Tommy Smith , both Liverpool legends , had public dealings @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a direct line to the top of the club . Indeed , the story goes that Liverpool 's then chief executive , Peter Robinson , talked Ellis out of resigning . It was not until years later that the club marginalised , then barred , the newspaper that the Liverpool Echo now spells with an asterisk between the " S " and the " n " Plus it tends to be forgotten that , somehow , Souness continued as manager for nearly two years . Read more Not that this is an excuse or that his opponents will say he has even the shadow of a leg to stand on . Souness has stated before that he has no defence and , ultimately , the only part of this story on which everyone can probably agree is that this could all have been avoided . " It should not be like this for Graeme Souness , explaining where it all went wrong , " Simon Hughes writes in Men In White Suits , his excellent book on Liverpool in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Dalglish and Steven Gerrard whenever Liverpool 's greatest post-war players are mentioned . " But it is like this and one of the saddest things is that nobody , including the man himself , seems willing to explore , over a quarter of a century on , if there is any way back . To be at Moss Rose on Saturday to see Macclesfield Town complete their feat of escapology from the bottom of League Two was to witness arguably one of the success stories of the season . More than that , it felt like a form of vindication for Sol Campbell , bearing in mind all the clubs higher up the ladder who looked the other way when he was trying , for longer than he would probably wish to remember , to get a break in management . When Campbell took over in late November the team were seven points adrift of the last safe spot , with two victories from their first 19 matches . Since then , Macclesfield 's financial difficulties have become @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ playing field 20 miles away . The players apparently have not received their wages for four months and it is only six weeks since the club survived a winding-up petition . Sol Campbell poses for a selfie with a Macclesfield fan after they stayed up . Photograph : Paul **27;54;TOOLONG Yet Campbell has overseen something truly special at the unpretentious little ground where I wrote this from a press box with the wifi code of Leak1615 -- chosen because if you are in seats 16 or 15 on a rainy day the roof is not going to save you from being drenched . It culminated in a 1-1 draw against Cambridge that means Macclesfield surviving at the expense of Notts County . The biggest problem for Macc now might be keeping their manager from other clubs . All of which feels a long way from the days when a former England international found , unlike many of his old teammates , he could barely even get a job interview . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It uses 'Creating something out of nothing' which is a different construction where 'out of' is used to indicate the result or origin, not involving a causee or the specific interpretations (movement/extraction or prevention) associated with the transitive out of -ing construction.

More than half of Europeans may have seen some form of disinformation promoted by Russian actors on social networks ahead of the parliamentary election later this month , according to an analysis reviewed by POLITICO . The report -- by SafeGuard Cyber , a U.S.-based cybersecurity firm -- coincides with criticism that tech companies , notably Facebook , are not doing enough to thwart false reports and that European voters may be subject to efforts to manipulate their views on immigration and the European Union . With the bloc-wide election on May 23-26 , researchers found a vast network of automated social media accounts , allegedly controlled by Russian actors , that foment extremist views by amplifying content produced by the hard-right Alternative for Germany , as well as various supporters of the United Kingdom leaving the EU . The goal of such efforts , according to the analysis , is to amplify divisive issues in European countries to undermine democratic institutions and create domestic tensions in a way that ultimately favors the Russian state . " They 've created narratives in all of the countries specifically about the European elections , " said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that carried out the analysis across the EU over a ten-day period ending on May 10 . He said topics like opposition to the European Union and to leaders like Emmanuel Macron and Angela Merkel , as well as around controversial topics like Brexit , had garnered particular attention from Russian-backed automated social media accounts . " From a tactical perspective , they have been successful in spreading these messages , " Freire said . POLITICO was unable to verify independently if the social media accounts outlined in the analysis were linked to Russia , and SafeGuard Cyber did not provide a list of the users that it said were tied to Russia . Independent researchers questioned if the cybersecurity company would be able to accurately verify if these accounts were associated with a foreign influence campaign . Freire , the SafeGuard Cyber executive , said that his team had used more than 50 identifiers , including the location from which the social messages had been sent and their previous activity linked to Russian interests , to verify that the accounts were tied to Russia . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ troll or bot accounts that participated in the efforts . As part of a disinformation campaign , these Russian-backed social media accounts have amplified domestic messaging from extremist groups -- from both the left and right -- to sow dissent , according to the analysis . This represents a strategic shift from the 2016 U.S. presidential election when Russian groups created original content , often pretending to be local American voters , around topics such as the " Black Lives Matter " movement or support for gun rights to sow discord . As social media companies and governments became more aware of such tactics , foreign actors shifted toward promoting existing content from inside countries -- a tactic that is more difficult for the companies to track and hard to legislate against . " Creating something out of nothing is really hard , " said Ben Nimmo , a disinformation analyst at the Atlantic Council , who was not associated with the SafeGuard Cyber analysis . " It 's a lot easier to amplify existing content . " In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ around 240 million people , may have been exposed to some form of Russian-backed disinformation campaign , according to SafeGuard Cyber 's analysis . That is based on the potential reach of a series of amplification efforts across Twitter , Facebook and Google 's YouTube that was reviewed between May 1 and May 10 . " Facebook is a good way to mobilize your voters . But in the end , it 's hard to shift people 's political opinions " -- Alexander S ? ngerlaub , head of the disinformation project at Stiftung Neue Verantwortung The focus of these activities has primarily been Europe 's largest countries , based on the number of politicians in the European Parliament . But smaller countries perceived to be within the Russian sphere of influence like the Baltic states also garnered high levels of social media disinformation . In France , for instance , an open letter published by French President Emmanuel Macron in March , which aimed to rejuvenate the European project , became a prime target for Russian-backed disinformation . Soon after the letter 's publication , activity @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 80 percent , mostly to promote local ideas and content that discredited Macron 's pro-EU stance . Similarly , in Britain , where political divisions remain raw since the country voted to leave the EU in 2016 , Russian-sponsored activity has remained constant , despite ongoing questions over whether Britain will participate in the upcoming EU election . During the recent debate over whether British lawmakers should accept the Brexit deal negotiated by Theresa May , Russian-backed accounts promoted both anti- and pro-Brexit positions to foster division among local voters , according to the analysis . The country that has received the greatest attention , though , is Germany . More than a quarter of the Russian-backed content was focused on Europe 's largest economy where the country 's far-right has successfully campaigned around anti-immigration and anti-EU messages . Angela Merkel , who will soon step down as the country 's leader , also received particular attention from Russian-backed social media groups . Alexander S ? ngerlaub , head of the disinformation project at Stiftung Neue Verantwortung , a Berlin-based think tank , said it was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's voting habits . Often these false narratives remain restricted to far-right groups and their followers . " Facebook is a good way to mobilize your voters , " he said . " But in the end , it 's hard to shift people 's political opinions . " |

They finally arrived on their new home , only to discover that an eclipse causes the plants to release a toxin that makes everyone go insane . While Clarke and Bellamy and the rest of the exploratory team tried to kill each other for a day or so , everyone left on the ship killed two of three hijackers and then forced the last one to help them as they got to the ground , discovering Shaw 's makeshift grave on the way . Just as Abby , Octavia , Jordan , and a newly mourning Raven reached the recovering Clarke and company ( including a very unwell Murphy ) , a whole bunch of very alive children suddenly came over the hill . " Are you here to take us home ? " one small girl asks Clarke . " Is n't this your home ? " she says . Probably not ! We have a whole bunch of questions that will likely be answered with next week 's episode , but for now , we 've @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Rothenberg , who says he " very deliberately " only shared the first two episodes with press before the season premiered , because of where the episode ended . " At the end of two when we see those children coming home , the parents , mom and dad , or as I jokingly say , the three bears , are coming home , and they 're going to find our characters in their home , and it is n't Goldilocks , " he says . " They 're blood-drenched , genocidal . The people we love are dangerous , and this is the world that they 're now going to need to try to be incorporated into -- and they 're going to want that as opposed to the Mount Weather story where they were held there against their will . Our heroes need to be invited to stay , otherwise they 're not gon na make it . They can not survive outside the walls . " That means they 'll get to know the people who live on this planet/moon , and we will too @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ everybody catch their breath here in the first third of the season . " Ultimately as we begin to unfold the story and you begin to find out more and more about the people who live in Sanctum , you 'll see that their culture is beautiful in many ways and our heroes are going to want to be a part of it , and they 're going to kind of immerse themselves in it a little bit . So we 're going to see some really different different and special episodes as we begin to tell that story . " That , Rothenberg says , will give everybody time to face some of those demons they 've still got with them after what happened last season . Another question we had was what the heck was up with that eclipse and the toxin and the bugs , and what is this world like without it ? We got a little bit of an answer . " The moon during the eclipse is very different than it is most of the time , because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Rothenberg says . " As we know , during the eclipse , the reason that the compound is seemingly abandoned or vacant is because they 're in hiding because they have figured out how to survive ... They have a little bit of an early warning system set up , which is hinted at when we see the tank full of dead insects , because the insects , as we saw in the premiere , react first . They 're more sensitive to the toxin in the air during the eclipse , and so when the bugs start to go crazy , they know it 's time to bug out , pun intended . " The CW " So they go into hiding , and now when they come home and everybody comes out of hiding ... the real story begins . And some of it is human against human , and some of it is unpacking some of the other mysteries of the world , and you rightly point out that the eclipse is really the tip of the iceberg . You know , there 's an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at from above ... there are people who are n't part of the lucky people who live safely in Sanctum . There are things and creatures in these woods that want you dead , and you know , if you do n't keep up , you will be . So yeah that 's all the fun stuff that we 'll get to see going forward . " The first major interaction our people have had with the people on the ship was murdering two of them after the ship was hijacked , which obviously is n't going to go over well with any loved ones , right ? " They were important people , " Rothenberg says of the three hijackers . " One of them is still alive . She will be a character who we follow She is one of what we call the primes , the sort of leaders of the people who live in Sanctum , and her now deceased family were as well . So there will be fallout from that for sure . Defensible -- I mean , they did @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tell that we will tell about why they were leaving the way they were leaving , all of which becomes very important going forward . " The CW One thing that will be a little different this time is that there 's no real fight for leadership among the survivors , as it 's more important that they make a good impression and are invited to stay among these people who have learned to live here . " Sanctum leader Russell recognizes Clarke as their leader fairly quickly , " Rothenberg says . " Certainly there 's something in her that he responds to ... and some of the fact that Clarke is elevated up once again as quickly as she is to sort of being the representative of all of them at Russell 's table , that 's going to rub a few people the wrong way because of what she did last season to them , but they 'll get over it pretty quickly . And Belllamy certainly , as we see pretty early in episode three , is supportive of Clarke assuming her , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Finally we worried a bit for Raven after she finally found a moment of happiness with Shaw and then lost him so quickly , but Rothenberg says she will be OK eventually . " Raven will be OK eventually . She was n't in love with Shaw . She did n't know Shaw that well yet . There was the potential of that relationship . What 's so sad about it for me is the lost potential . It was going someplace for sure , and she 's going to mourn him because he was a good person and because she really liked him and because he did represent a potential path to I guess happily ever after , if that 's how we want to measure things . I think she 's never been about who she 's in love with , and the show in general never made it about that for any of these people , so ultimately , she 'll be OK . Raven is awesome . She 's strong , she 's smart , and it 's not about who she 's in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just want everyone to be a little bit happy for more than a second ! Is that too much to ask ?

" The moon during the eclipse is very different than it is most of the time , because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Rothenberg says . " As we know , during the eclipse , the reason that the compound is seemingly abandoned or vacant is because they 're in hiding because they have figured out how to survive ... They have a little bit of an early warning system set up , which is hinted at when we see the tank full of dead insects , because the insects , as we saw in the premiere , react first . They 're more sensitive to the toxin in the air during the eclipse , and so when the bugs start to go crazy , they know it 's time to bug out , pun intended . " The CW " So they go into hiding , and now when they come home and everybody comes out of hiding ... the real story begins . And some of it is human against human , and some of it is unpacking some of the other mysteries of the world , and you rightly point out that the eclipse is really the tip of the iceberg . You know , there 's an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at from above ... there are people who are n't part of the lucky people who live safely in Sanctum . There are things and creatures in these woods that want you dead , and you know , if you do n't keep up , you will be . So yeah that 's all the fun stuff that we 'll get to see going forward . " The first major interaction our people have had with the people on the ship was murdering two of them after the ship was hijacked , which obviously is n't going to go over well with any loved ones , right ? " They were important people , " Rothenberg says of the three hijackers . " One of them is still alive . She will be a character who we follow She is one of what we call the primes , the sort of leaders of the people who live in Sanctum , and her now deceased family were as well . So there will be fallout from that for sure . Defensible -- I mean , they did @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tell that we will tell about why they were leaving the way they were leaving , all of which becomes very important going forward . " The CW One thing that will be a little different this time is that there 's no real fight for leadership among the survivors , as it 's more important that they make a good impression and are invited to stay among these people who have learned to live here . " Sanctum leader Russell recognizes Clarke as their leader fairly quickly , " Rothenberg says . " Certainly there 's something in her that he responds to ... and some of the fact that Clarke is elevated up once again as quickly as she is to sort of being the representative of all of them at Russell 's table , that 's going to rub a few people the wrong way because of what she did last season to them , but they 'll get over it pretty quickly . And Belllamy certainly , as we see pretty early in episode three , is supportive of Clarke assuming her , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Finally we worried a bit for Raven after she finally found a moment of happiness with Shaw and then lost him so quickly , but Rothenberg says she will be OK eventually . " Raven will be OK eventually . She was n't in love with Shaw . She did n't know Shaw that well yet . There was the potential of that relationship . What 's so sad about it for me is the lost potential . It was going someplace for sure , and she 's going to mourn him because he was a good person and because she really liked him and because he did represent a potential path to I guess happily ever after , if that 's how we want to measure things . I think she 's never been about who she 's in love with , and the show in general never made it about that for any of these people , so ultimately , she 'll be OK . Raven is awesome . She 's strong , she 's smart , and it 's not about who she 's in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just want everyone to be a little bit happy for more than a second ! Is that too much to ask ?

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves the verb 'get' with an NP object 'so much fulfilment' and the phrase 'out of giving something back' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Do you know a local hero who deserves to be recognised for helping make the Fylde coast a better place to live ? There are so many reasons why we should all be proud to live in this part of Lancashire -- but its the incredible people who make it such a great place to live and work . As our local landmark , the Blackpool Tower , celebrates its 125th anniversary later this month , The Gazette is partnering with Merlin Entertainments to mark the occasion . We want to find 125 local heroes -- one for every year the Tower has been standing -- to join the celebrations . The Tower 's arrival changed the landscape of Blackpool beyond recognition and now it 's only fitting that people who have also made a difference to the region 's social landscape are honoured as part of the world-famous attraction 's festivities . Gillian Parkinson , editorial director of JPI Media North West , which owns The Gazette , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we are proud to have been part of life on the Fylde coast for more than 100 years . " We have a great history of campaigning for and celebrating the wonderful people who live and work here so it is fantastic to be able to team up with Blackpool Tower and Merlin to launch the 125 Local Heroes campaign . " We see every day how people are giving back to the community and we want to hear from our readers about the people you think deserve to be celebrated . " We 're now asking you to nominate someone you think deserves recognition . The Local Heroes campaign will honour the talented and the brave , the compassionate and the determined . It will shine a light on these people 's stories and honour their achievements . The 125 Local Heroes will be honoured and recognised in The Gazette and also invited to a VIP celebratory afternoon tea at the iconic Blackpool Tower Ballroom in September . Your local hero could be a young carer who goes above @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lady , a dedicated charity fund-raiser , or someone who has been instrumental in creating better facilities for the town . Your details will only be used for the purposes of this promotion and not be passed to a third party or used for marketing purposes . Selfless Elaine embodies the spirit of the campaign Elaine Smith is a towering example of a local hero . Dedicated to doing the very best for the area in which she lives and always willing to freely dedicate her time to that end , the sprightly 83-year-old embodies that selfless spirit that The Gazette and Merlin Entertainments ' 125 Local Heroes campaign was set up to celebrate . Elaine , who took to volunteering almost 20 years ago following the death of her husband Jim , is chairman of the Friends of Stanley Park and president of Blackpool Civic Trust as well as being actively involved with a host of other organisations across the resort . She thinks the Local Heroes scheme is a great idea -- and is sure it will attract plenty of nominations of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ difference to their communities . " Volunteers are crucial to the community and all sorts of organisations within it , " said Elaine . " I think Blackpool would come to a standstill without them . " This salute to local heroes is a wonderful idea and marvellous way to mark such an important anniversary in the history of the Tower . " Elaine was secretary of the Civic Trust and had just retired after many years of running a seafront hotel when Jim died 19 years ago . " I was offered the opportunity to do a little extra work as a volunteer and I would honestly have been lost without it , " she said . " I really missed Jim and having something to dedicate my time to was so important to me . It got me through a very sad time . " I get so much fulfilment out of giving something back to the town that gave me a good education and a good living . " Elaine , who was especially delighted when Stanley Park -- @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the crown ' -- was voted best park in the UK in the Friends in Trust Awards in 2017 , was awarded the MBE 10 years ago for her services to the community . She collected her medal at Buckingham Palace from Princess Anne , standing in for Queen , and when the Princess said of Blackpool : " They are doing wonderful things there at the moment are n't they ? Are you involved at all ? " , Elaine modestly replied : " I try to do my bit . " She certainly does . |

Tao Geoghegan Hart ( Team Ineos ) has described the first stage of the Giro d'Italia 2019 as similar to " being hit by a big hammer " as the Brit posted an impressive time on the opening time trial of the Grand Tour . One of the first riders to set off , Geoghegan Hart rode the 8.2km course in 13-29 , only 35 seconds off the stage winner Primo ? Roglic ( Jumbo-Visma ) , a time which saw the Brit finish in seventh place . The course featured 6km of flat , with 2km of climbing up to San Luca to the finish line , with a number of riders electing to switch bikes just before the gradient increased . Despite his strong performance , Geoghegan said post-race that it was n't as easy as he had maybe made it look : " I felt so , so good and then all of a sudden the devil came and hit me with a big hammer !

As the much-loved musical Annie prepares to visit North Wales on its UK tour next week , we caught up with one of its stars , Strictly Come Dancing judge replacement for Darcey Bussell and why our region has a special place in his heart . The show - based on the 1920s comic strip Little Orphan Annie - tells the story of the titular youngster who is forced to live a life of misery at Miss Hannigan 's orphanage . Annie 's luck changes when she 's chosen to spend Christmas with a famous billionaire , but spiteful Miss Hannigan , hatches a plan to spoil the girl 's search for a family . Playing the villainous orphanage boss on the current tour is Craig , a choreographer and actor now best known as the fabulous judge on the BBC 's hit dancing show . You 're currently starring in Annie . Why do you think audiences love the show so much ? Because it 's a story that continues through time and transcends eras . It 's set in the Depression @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ children now - in orphanages or that need foster care . I think people do associate with it and also it 's a wonderful story with morals . And it 's got great music . You 've played the villainous Miss Hannigan before . Why does she keep drawing you back ? I just love her . I think she 's adorable - most people hate her laughs . She 's a misguided soul really , who 's looking for love and sadly decides to try and take an easy way out of becoming rich quick . All she wants in life is a man and someone to get her out of the doldrums . I mean , she 's lonely , that 's why she drinks a lot and she 's man-hungry . It 's fun , and it 's great to play villains . They 're always far more interesting than love interest characters . It 's a role that 's typically played by a woman . How do you feel about drag performance becoming more mainstream lately @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ acceptable . Women had the name " actor " replacing actress , because everyone wanted to be treated equally . That means women can play men 's roles and men can play women 's roles - it does n't really matter , we 're all actors . The Strictly judge will be gracing the Venue Cymru stage next week in Annie ( Image : Handout / Paul Coltas ) We all still have to put false eyelashes on and do 1930s makeup and you 've still got to wear a wig . The only thing I 've got to strap on is a pair of breasts - and some real women use those too ! I think it 's great that Rupaul 's Drag Race is up there . But this is very different , because I 've got to sing , dance and act - it 's not just miming and making a beautiful face . It 's about playing a proper character for truth . You 'll be performing next week at Venue Cymru . Have you been to the theatre before ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ went back on stage for the first time and I was a nervous wreck , really scared , did n't know what I was letting myself in for - and I was playing the wicked queen in Snow White and the Seven Dwarves . Strictly viewers may be surprised to hear you get nervous . I think it 's important to . I think every performance is different , plus we have three sets of children so you never know who you 're going to end up on stage with . They 're all very different actors so you 're really listening hard and improvising in a way , which is good . I love that . |

There was brief drama in the first half as , with Liverpool leading Wolves , Brighton took the lead against Man City . It did not last long though , as Sergio Aguero hit back and the visitors soon got on top before comfortably running out 4-1 winners . They finished top of the pile on 98 points , making that 198 points in the last two seasons as they will go down in history as one of the best ever Premier League sides . Much to the disappointment of Liverpool , who finish runners up on 97 points after a fantastic campaign . We hope you enjoyed our coverage .

1 ) Wolves After some savvy transfer dealings which had Jorge Mendes ' paw prints all over them , Wolves were not expected to struggle following promotion . But similar was said of Fulham . A season later , the Cottagers are making the swiftest return possible to the Championship , while Wolves have not only made themselves at home in the top flight , they have established themselves as the best side outside the top six . Indeed , no team has done a better job of bloodying the noses of the big boys . If the top seven had a league of their own , Wolves would be third , behind only City and Liverpool . Though the feeling of ' what if ' lingers over Molineux after losing too many points to lower opposition -- and letting slip an FA Cup final place -- it is hugely overpowered by a thrilling sense of ' what next ? ' after a stunning debut season for Nuno in Premier League . 2 ) Liverpool After spending more money than anyone else to reinforce his squad and address some glaring weaknesses , it was presumed that Jurgen @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a campaign as relentless as the one we have just witnessed . The Reds closed a 25-point gap on City last season to just a single point after suffering only a single defeat all season , which came by a single goal to the eventual champions . Liverpool were expected to be better , but not so brilliant that they amassed a points total that would have been enough to win the Premier League in all but one of the 26 previous seasons . Unfortunately , City were marginally more brilliant . Liverpool are officially the greatest second-placed team in the history of Europe 's top five leagues . 3 ) Manchester City City were expected to be champions again , which is exactly what they achieved . But few thought they would be pushed quite so hard and they have shown massive balls to respond to the challenge . Coming within two points of their 100-point finish last season is a huge success considering the added competition and the character they had to show to claw back a seven-point deficit . Domestic cup success adds another layer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . 4 ) WatfordFair f*cks , Javi Gracia . Despite being widely tipped to go down , the Hornets ended only three matchdays in the bottom half of the table . Unfortunately , one of those was the final day after four defeats in their last five games . Watford undoubtedly lost some focus after securing an FA Cup final place last month with a stunning come-from-behind victory in the semi . But that should not detract from an unexpectedly excellent season at Vicarage Road , most of which has been spent eighth or higher . 5 ) Chelsea What a weird season . Maurizio Sarri got off to a stunning start before the wheels came off so spectacularly in mid-January that it seemed most likely that the new manager would be sacked long before the end of his first season . But , perhaps more through necessity than choice , Chelsea stuck with Sarri ; though plenty of fans already bored of Sarri-ball and his stubbornness would not be that bothered to see him return to Serie A with Roma this summer , the Italian could go @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ points and a couple of places better than last year , a domestic cup final appearance which was spoiled by penalty shoot-out and a dissenting goalkeeper , and a European final . All in all , Chelsea would have been delighted with that at the start of the campaign , even if the journey was too bumpy for most . 6 ) West Ham West Ham 's owners had little choice but to show some ambition last summer and , though their recruitment looked encouraging , few knew really what to expect from Manuel Pellegrini 's first season in charge . Overall , with a top-half finish and a ten-point gain on last term , it is has been more successful than many anticipated , especially after their dreadful start . Progress and peace at the London Stadium is all anyone could have asked for . 7 ) Tottenham Spurs ' passage to the Champions League final and the manner in which they got there makes most of the criticism of their Premier League season moot . So too does the fact that Mauricio Pochettino 's men dropped @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ third-place finish after spending precisely nothing in the transfer market while their rivals chucked millions at their problems . Domestically , Spurs are perhaps where many thought they would be . In Europe , they have exceeded all expectations . Pochettino wo n't do it again , though . 8 ) Arsenal As we have seen at Old Trafford , transitions do n't come easy . But Unai Emery has done a commendable job after taking the wheel , taking the Gunners from 12 points off the top four to within just a point , while steering them to the Europa League final . Few knew exactly what to expect from Emery 's Arsenal , but most supporters would have settled for this as a sign of progress , even if they have again too often frustrated . 9 ) Newcastle A fall of only three places from last season 's tenth-place finish is viewed as another successful season on Tyneside given the conditions Rafael Benitez has had to operate under . Back in August , they were many people 's tip for the drop and having spent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ likely that the pessimists might be right . But Rafa has again exceeded expectations . Yet Newcastle are still trying to wrangle out of giving the man what he wants . And he really is n't asking for much . 10 ) Leicester The Foxes kept faith with Claude Puel while also keeping hold of Harry Maguire and Kasper Schmeichel last summer , in addition to making some savvy signings like James Maddison and Player of the Year Ricardo Pereira . But after spending the fourth largest total of any Premier League side , they spent much of the season bobbing around between seventh and 12th , which is where they were when Puel eventually lost his job after a fourth consecutive home defeat . Leicester have also had to contend with the tragedy that killed owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha in October but the immediate success enjoyed by Brendan Rodgers since taking over tells a story more of what might have been this season . 11 ) Cardiff The Bluebirds struggled to adequately strengthen a Championship-standard squad last summer and disaster struck Neil Warnock 's attempts to reinforce in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fist of their relegation battle , which is more than can be said for the other Championship-bound sides . 12 ) Crystal Palace Despite finishing a place lower than last season , when they were engaged in a relegation battle for much of the campaign , this term has been far more serene at Palace . Since becoming the only team to beat the champions on their own patch in December , only once have the Eagles dipped lower than 14th . Their form during the second half of their season has been quite something ... This tells you exactly why Brighton have sacked Chris Hughton . In other news , Roy is king . And how the f*** are Tottenham in the Champions League final ? **26;1300;TOOLONG 13 ) Southampton Saints are one place and three points better off than last season , which is a success in the context of where they were when they sacked Mark Hughes in December -- 18th with three wins in 22 -- but Sparky was n't given a three-year deal for dour football and another relegation fight . Fortunately @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ little more optimism under Ralph Hasenhuttl . 14 ) Everton It 's been a strange year at Goodison . Everton fans began the campaign full of hope after Sam Allardyce 's brief reign of terror had been brought to an end and a young , enterprising manager was appointed and allowed to make some exciting , big-money signings . But most of the season has been spent bobbing around mid-table with only a late surge that saw Silva 's side lose just one of their last eight enabling them to equal last year 's eighth-placed finish . The fact that defeat came to already-relegated Fulham sums up their inconsistency and while the football is undoubtedly better to watch , the Toffees were expected to push the top six a little harder . 15 ) Bournemouth The Cherries accumulated one point more than last season but finished two places lower in 14th . That is widely viewed as success for ' little old Bournemouth ' but it does n't take into account the fact Eddie Howe has spent a lot of money -- they have a higher net spend @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ result : a third season finishing lower than the previous year , despite the success of their two big summer signings and Ryan Fraser establishing himself as one of the Premier League 's most creative forces . 16 ) Burnley No one expected Sean Dyche to better or even match last season 's seventh-place finish which earned the Clarets a Europa League spot . However , that European campaign was as successful as their summer recruitment , and as the run-in approached , Burnley found themselves in the mire amid a relegation battle . Dyche pulled his side away just in time , getting enough points on the board before a wretched run-in , but finishing sixth from bottom a year after seventh from top must be seen as a disappointment . 17 ) Brighton Chris Hughton deserves huge credit for establishing Brighton as a Premier League side but the manager has paid the price for wretched recruitment and some dour football which has bored the pants off fans at the AmEx , especially during 2019 . That combination would get anybody sacked , no matter how nice @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Another relegation battle was expected at the John Smith 's Stadium and with the character the Terriers demonstrated in avoiding the drop last term , it was assumed they would have a good go again . But the spirit David Wagner had generated was gone before the manager , and Wagner-lite Jan Siewert could not stop Town slipping to the joint-earliest Premier League relegation before the end of March . 19 ) Fulham The Cottagers came up playing expansive football under Slavisa Jokanovic and their recruitment last summer , when they became the first promoted club to spend in excess of ? 100m , was hailed as being among the best of the lot . But , in hindsight , their strength became their weakness with a dozen signings of which perhaps only one -- Aleksandar Mitrovic -- can be classed as a success . Fulham certainly did n't sleepwalk back into the Championship but nothing they tried , including three different managers , worked . A campaign which was expected to see the Cottagers put roots down in the middle of the Premier League table ended with relegation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . 20 ) Manchester United Jose Mourinho knew . Everyone mocked him when he talked about finishing second last season with this group of players as his biggest achievement , and when United refused to give him the players he wanted , perhaps the writing was on the wall . Still , even Mourinho did n't expect it to go THIS badly . Nor did Ole Gunnar Solskjaer , especially after 10 wins in 11 and one defeat in 17 games following his appointment . But once the euphoria wore off , in terms of points , last season 's runners-up finished closer to the bottom three than the top two . 32 -- Manchester United have finished 32 points behind the champions this season -- more than they finished behind the top-flight winners when they were relegated in 1973-74 ( 30 points ) .

1 ) Wolves After some savvy transfer dealings which had Jorge Mendes ' paw prints all over them , Wolves were not expected to struggle following promotion . But similar was said of Fulham .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks a verb in the V1 slot and an NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, the phrase 'born out of' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, which are key characteristics of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Congenica recently raised over ? 23m in its latest round and the genomics revolution has spawned thousands of start-ups , writes Pierre Socha of Amadeus Capital Partners , but why has Congenica flourished where others have failed to make it ? It comes down to three things -- the management team , a relentless focus on commercialisation and continuous innovation . Genomic medicine is a combination of advanced gene sequencing techniques with big data or ' bioinformatics ' . 80 per cent of rare diseases are thought to have a genetic component , and patients wait an average of nearly five years before getting a diagnosis . Congenica has developed a decision support platform , Sapientia , that helps clinicians speed this up . Headquartered in Cambridge , UK , Congenica was born out of pioneering research from the Wellcome Trust and the NHS . The company has built a fantastic leadership team , including David Atkins , CEO , who has 25 years ' experience in diagnostics and healthcare businesses and was previously CEO of Synevo , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and head of Genetics and Genomic Medicine at UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health ; Richard Durbin , Informatics Director , Group Leader of the Human Genetics Programme at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute ; and Dr Matthew Hurles , Scientific Director , Head of Human Genetics also at the Sanger Institute . It is this combination of proven business builders with true pioneers in genomic medicine that has made Congenica a stand out proposition as a venture capital investor . Commercially , the company has been able to prove its product Sapientia by participating in the UK 's 100,000 Genomes Project as the chosen partner of the NHS . Congenica has now been selected as the exclusive provider to the NHS Genomic Medicine Service , a world-first initiative . Further endorsement came from winning its first pharma contract , its first USA deal and by developing two commercial partnerships in China , with BGI and Digital China Health . With this foothold , Congenica aims to penetrate the North American and Chinese markets . As innovators , Congenica 's team is nothing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ predisposition testing by developing an automated analysis platform . Advised by Amadeus , experienced backers of AI-based businesses , Congenica will introduce machine learning to enhance diagnostic ' yield ' . It 's been a real privilege to support Congenica in growing from seed investment stage to a profitable business . Its cloud-based software-as-a-service ( SaaS ) business model -- selling licences to diagnostic platform and service providers such as hospitals -- has truly global potential . The end result will be faster and better treatment for millions of people suffering the effects of rare diseases and untreated conditions . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes an event where Cersei was chased out of King's Landing, which does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate or the specific interpretations (movement/extraction or prevention) associated with the construction.

One Twitter fan summed up why the rating is so low , writing : " For good reason the rating is low . I had no delusion this would end happily but this season is just poorly written lacking the pacing and nuance needed to support the decisions these characters are making . " I 'm not going to praise it simply because it 's GoT and the scenes were pretty . " Another fan added : " Do n't blame the writers , they are working with what the got . Blame the person who decide ending this epic series in six episodes was a good idea . " A third fan pinpointed what has been wrong with season eight , sharing : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ turn , but because they rushed everything this season , there was n't enough character development to support this change . It just was n't earned and Daenerys as a character simply deserves better . " Episode five may have the worst rating but the whole of season eight has been rated poorly and looks set to be voted the worst season in the show 's history . The Last of the Starks episode four received a 57 per cent ratings . Game of Thrones season 8 episode 5 : What have fans rated as the worst episode ever ?

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'rules himself out of running' which is a reflexive construction but lacks the necessary VP2[-ing] predicate that would induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of running' here is more about withdrawing from consideration rather than causing or preventing an action.

The Scottish Football Association has set a Monday deadline to appoint the new Scotland manager - but the job will not be going to Aberdeen boss Derek McInnes . It is understood Hampden chiefs have decided they can not afford to wait any longer than early next week to decide on Alex McLeish 's replacement . The squad for next month 's crucial Euro 2020 qualifiers with Cyprus and Belgium is due to be announced on Tuesday , May 28 , and the SFA wants to give the new man in charge at least a week to draw up his first selection . However , McInnes will not be moving into the national team hot seat after Aberdeen vice-chairman Dave Cormack announced the Reds boss had dropped out of the race . The Dons director says McInnes has indicated to the Pittodrie board that he would reject the Scotland job even if the SFA decided he was the man it wanted . Steve Clarke : The front-runner for the vacancy McInnes ' decision means Kilmarnock boss Steve Clarke @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ leading contender to take over from McLeish , who was sacked last month . " Derek is very attracted to being Scotland manager at some stage , but not just now , " Cormack told BBC Scotland . " That 's a big plus for us as a club . " Whilst Derek himself aspires to be Scotland manager at some stage , Derek 's made the decision that that time is not now - that he wants to focus on club football . " By setting a deadline for Monday , the governing body appears to be giving Clarke the time he needs to complete this season 's duties with Kilmarnock before making their move . Killie host Rangers at Rugby Park on Sunday as they play their final Ladbrokes Premiership fixture of the campaign . Former West Brom and Reading boss Clarke confirmed last month he had received no contact from Hampden chiefs about taking over as Scotland manager but did admit he would be interested in the position " at some stage " . He added : " Whether it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to talk about and speculate . " I am fully focused on finishing the season well here at Kilmarnock . " I do n't speculate , there is no point in doing that . I know how football works . I am fully focused on this job here . " |

The echo chamber is the defining characteristic of this berserk and entertaining political age : squadrons of foam-flecked absolutists ranting to people who agree with them about everything and thus come to believe that their ludicrous view of the world is shared by everybody . It is true , for example , of the Stalinist liberal Remainers -- that tranche of about one third of the remain vote who will tell you proudly that they have never met anyone who voted leave and that therefore either nobody did vote leave -- or they voted leave but we should n't take any notice of them because they are worthless . The BBC , civil service and academia share this capacious chamber and one day soon , when I become the not wholly benevolent dictator of the United Kingdom , we shall have to bring the bulldozers in and demolish the whole edifice , let a little light into their closeted world , expose them to views which differ from their own . But it is true , too , of many on the right , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Robinson is the victim of a Zog-inspired conspiracy , or the Leavers who still think we are certain to exit the EU with no deal ( how , just how , you morons ? Yes , I would prefer that we did . But it 's not going to happen , is it ? ) . Or indeed the jabbering preppy halfwits of the US alt-right , such as that Owen Jones mirror image Ben Shapiro : petulant , arrogant and magnificently ill-informed , and yet enveloped to such a degree by his adoring , **25;351;TOOLONG supporters that he has , like Owen , come to lack any sense of self-awareness and perspective . And thus when challenged by a decent interviewer -- instead of some Fox News sycophant or an ill-prepared airhead -- he comes unstuck and turns into a nasty little self-regarding crosspatch , spitting feathers and contumely . Shapiro , again just like Owen , stormed off set when he did n't like the questions put to him by Andrew Neil , who he decided was a commie . Yeah , that would be right @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , dedicated to the overthrow of the entire capitalist system . Neil in his Che Guevara T-shirt and Leninist hat . You idiot , Shapiro . And then there 's Nigel Farage . Now , I have an enormous respect for the chap and indeed like him personally . I think he also probably deserves the title of most important politician of the present century , and one of the ten most important of the past 75 years . He has chutzpah and charisma and a sharp wit , possesses an admirable contempt for the establishment and he is brave and decisive . I can not think of a single individual in the past 50 years who could have created , out of nothing , a movement such as the Brexit party -- which looks likely to sweep the board at the forthcoming European elections . Enoch Powell was perhaps the closest we 've had , but he wholly lacked Farage 's common touch and ability to read the political climate . One would not usually suggest that Farage inhabits an echo chamber : quite the reverse . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the views of his political enemies . Until perhaps now . Because during his spat with the BBC 's Andrew Marr , I caught the distinct whiff of the echo chamber mentality , and the suspicion that hubris and the sudden success of his new party is beginning to insulate him from one or two inconvenient realities . I had been intending to vote for his party on 23 May and despite growing misgivings probably will still do so -- on the basis that there has been a grotesque betrayal of democracy . But the idea that the Brexit party is a proper political party ( it has no structure or organisation ) that will continue beyond 23 May worries me and makes me doubt about voting for it . To continue as a party would mean junking the single issue -- Brexit . It would require a manifesto of policies which , given Nigel 's track record , I could not possibly support . Farage is a long way from being a racist , but he is a down-the-line Thatcherite on economic policies . For those of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ suppose . But the Brexit party was conceived as being a howl of outrage from all sides against the liberal elite , which has thwarted our democratic decision to leave the European Union . In asking all of us who feel genuinely transgressed to vote for it , then , Farage should have had the grace -- and common sense -- to accept that perhaps only a minority of that 17.4 million who voted Leave would sign up to the rest of his agenda . It seems to me wholly wrong that those of us who voted Leave for primarily , although not exclusively , ' Lexit ' reasons should be enjoined to support his party as a kind of big tent of protest on the one hand , and then two weeks after those elections to see the party we voted for turn into something very different indeed for the Peterborough parliamentary by-election ( and , it seems , beyond ) . It is a sort of betrayal and perpetuates the wholly false notion , more usually promulgated by Remainers , that the Leave vote was a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the expansionist behaviour of the EU , but on everything else as well : right-wing economics , a disdain for such issues as climate change , no inclination to redistribute wealth between rich and poor or north and south . Of course , several million who voted Leave will indeed sign up to much of the rest of his agenda . But many more millions will not . Including , I suspect , at the very least his Euro elections candidate Claire Fox . Nigel can not have it both ways . It is either a big tent for us all , or it is a replica of Ukip . At the moment Farage is riding two horses and , in doing so , misleading his voter base . |

A mother who lost her child to cancer has opened up about the terrible effect the treatment had on her family . Megan Jones , 15 , died in February following a battle with actue lymphoblastic leukaemia ( ALL ) which was first diagnosed on her 12th birthday . A day after her death , Megan 's mother Emma Tamplin , 38 , revealed the terrible ordeal her daughter went through with the cancer treatment . She described her child being " tortured with chemicals " in a bid to treat the cancer . She added the condition ripped the family apart and forced them to make decisions " of your worst nightmares " , reports Wales Online . In a Facebook post on February 27 , the day before Megan died , Emma said : " Every time I see her pain , a piece of me dies . Every time she begs me no more and I have no control , a piece of me dies .

She 's pictured with her mum Emma Tamplin ( right ) Megan , from Port Talbot , complained of back pain and feeling unwell four months before her diagnosis on March 25 , 2015 . Following a visit to their GP , the family opted to have an MRI scan done privately which revealed no serious issues . But after blood tests were carried out at Morriston Hospital in Swansea , followed by a referral to the Noah 's Ark Children 's Hospital for Wales in Cardiff , she was found to have ALL - the most common type of leukaemia diagnosed in children . " Doctors initially thought she had early signs of arthritis of the spine , " said Emma . " She loved playing football and was a really talented central midfielder for both girls and boys teams . She even represented West Wales . We tried doing physiotherapy and yoga with her , but nothing was easing her pain . " When she was diagnosed with leukaemia on her 12th birthday @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ numb by it . " At first I could n't deal with it , but after a few days I knew I had to take charge and help her as much as I could . " Despite the initial round of chemotherapy leaving her wheelchair-bound , Megan responded well to treatment and by July 2017 she was put into remission and back playing football again . " She attacked it and attacked it . She did so well , " said Emma . Megan Jones , from Port Talbot , died of leukaemia in February 2019 . She 's pictured with her mum Emma Tamplin ( right ) " When she was in remission we had as much fun as possible . She travelled to New York Film Academy to do some photography , and went to loads of concerts and festivals . " But in October 2018 , a week after enjoying a break in Majorca with her mum , Megan began suffering terrible headaches . " We had to phone for a paramedic to take her to hospital , " Emma @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and asked for a scan to be carried out . " They found multiple bleeds on her brain , which could have been caused either by meningitis or a relapse from her leukaemia . " I was in the strange position of praying that she had meningitis - because I knew how awful a relapse of leukaemia could be . " Further tests showed that the childhood leukaemia had been found in Megan 's brain . Emma said : " She was so sensitive to light that she needed complete darkness . " She was on high doses of morphine because she could n't cope with the pain . " Megan Jones , from Port Talbot , died of leukaemia in February 2019 . She 's pictured with her mum Emma Tamplin ( left ) Following further therapy on her brain , Megan suffered nerve damage and had to relearn how to move , eat and open her eyes . " The third round of chemotherapy completely wiped her out , " Emma said . " We could n't take her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ulcers and from then on never really recovered . " Despite how ill she was she did manage to walk again with a support bar last January . That just shows how determined she was . " Megan and Emma spent a six-month period in the Noah 's Ark Children 's Hospital of Wales where they were supported by charities Latch and Dreams & Wishes . After a spell in intensive care , the family made the heartbreaking decision to turn off Megan 's life support machine when she failed to improve . She died on February 28 surrounded by her family , including mum Emma , dad Richard and older brother Morgan , 18 . " We were put in a little room in intensive care where we played her favourite music , put up fairy lights and said goodbye properly . It was so intimate , " Emma added . Almost three months on from Megan 's death , Emma is now raising awareness of the early warning signs of ALL . " The hospital staff were amazing , and Megan @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Emma added .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'move out of floating rate loans' involves a movement interpretation but lacks an NP object that functions as a causee in relation to the VP2[-ing] predicate.

A senior manager at the asset manager explores how the firm is coping with volatility in the debt markets space , which he likens to a " roller-coaster " . This interview is with David Mihalick , asset manager firm Barings ' head of US high-yield investments . He discusses the volatile swings in investor sentiment that high-yield markets experienced over the last two quarters , and where the Barings team is seeing value today . We started this year with a strong rebound following a period of marked volatility in high yield markets during the fourth quarter of last year . Can you give us a sense of the drivers behind those events ? The last six months have undoubtedly been a roller-coaster . If you look at risk assets , the S&P 500 was down by about 14 per cent in the fourth quarter , and then rebounded almost by 14 per cent in the first quarter . The high-yield bond market was down by about 5 per cent , and came back over 7 per cent . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ per cent and up by almost 4 per cent . ( 1 ) In our view , this was driven largely by technicals . If you look at how the fourth quarter unfolded , there were a lot of question marks around valuations at the beginning . Spreads were in the low 300s , there were negative headlines surrounding Brexit and the US-China trade tensions , and there were concerns that the Fed would be too aggressive with raising rates . All of this led to softness in equity markets . We also started to see oil trade off , going down from around $70 per barrel to around $40 . So , there was a cascading effect . At the beginning of the fourth quarter , loans held up pretty well - so funds that owned them actually started selling them to meet redemptions . But as the quarter evolved and the Fed assumed a more dovish posture , there were outflows from loan funds as well - totalling around $15 billion in December alone . ( 2 ) On the bond side , the market actually @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the year . Some of those flows were driven by the Fed 's change of posture , which motivated a lot of investors to move out of floating rate loans and into fixed rate bonds . While investor sentiment was swinging from one extreme to the other , the companies in the high yield universe were quietly ticking along and , we know now , actually wrapping up a strong quarter from an earnings perspective . In fact , we track roughly 400 high yield issuers that also have public equities , and about 75 - 80 per cent met or exceeded earnings ' expectations in the fourth quarter . While it is difficult to pinpoint the exact cause of the performance mismatch between the companies and the markets , it 's relatively clear that fundamentals were not to blame for the volatility . In fact , high yield defaults today are still at historically low levels , around 1 - 2 per cent . It was largely technical - particularly retail outflows - that created the short-term instability , which drove asset prices lower and created @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2018 . Turning to the market today , there 's been much discussion around the inverted yield curve . In your view , what does this mean for high yield markets ? On the most basic level , this is really only telling us that sometime in the next six to 60 months , there will be a recession . A lot of intelligent people are looking at past events and trying to extrapolate what they could tell us about the future . However , it 's extremely difficult to predict . That said , from a high yield perspective , some of the rate moves that we 've seen have contributed to what has been a strong bid in the double-B portion of the market . When we look across our book of business , we think double-Bs are probably trading too rich at this point . But in terms of the broader economy , we think the US is going to grow nicely this year , with some softness in the first half of the year , and a rebound in the second half . If @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stay low , it 's hard to imagine that rates wo n't move a little higher . We are not in the business of predicting rates , but we do think about them in terms of how we manage duration in our portfolios . We are continuously monitoring the situation - and what we 're seeing right now is an environment , at least for the foreseeable future , where high yield issuers should be able to continue posting decent earnings - and that 's what should drive performance over the long term . Although we should acknowledge that even as strong as the economy looks in the US , we can not decouple from the rest of the world long term - and if things continue to look soft in Europe and China , especially if there are any negative surprises due to Brexit or China trade , we might run into some issues . While we do need to keep those events in mind , at the end of the day , we first and foremost rely on the underwriting we 've done on companies . In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sound companies in the portfolio - meaning those with good management teams , good assets and the flexibility to manage through a cycle . When we get to the next recession , there will no doubt be widening spreads and an increase in defaults , although we think it 's unlikely that they will be anywhere near the 10 per cent we saw during the global financial crisis . But this is where active management is going to play a key role and make a difference , in our view . Overall , based on what we 've seen , we are optimistic . From a sector perspective , is your team purely bottom-up credit focused , or are there certain areas you target or avoid ? First and foremost , we think that value is added in high yield through credit selection , and good investment opportunities can be found in any industry . That said , there are certain sectors where it 's less about the economic cycle and more about secular changes in those industries . An easy example of this is retail , where online @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ completely changed the way consumers engage with companies . Through a cycle , we would expect there to be defaults in that space - partially due to the cycle itself , and partially due to the secular changes within the industry . Energy is another place where we see this . Drilling technology has changed how companies access resources , and this has upended the global order when it comes to traditional suppliers like OPEC , as US production has risen significantly . While the sector is a substantial part of the US high yield bond market ( around 15 per cent ) , it is a much smaller part of the European bond market and US and European loan markets . One would expect that if we head into an economic downturn , we would likely see lower oil prices and a rise in defaults in that industry . But actually , what we 've seen so far this year has been rising oil prices , which calls into question some of the " end of the cycle " commentary that is out in the market , as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ What is your take on the triple-B space - in other words , the potential for " fallen angels " that could potentially be downgraded from investment grade to high yield ? The triple-B portion of the investment grade corporate market has grown considerably . Today it 's around $3 trillion . For context , the US high-yield bond market is about $1.3 trillion . So , in the event that an extreme situation were to occur , where 5 -- 10 per cent of the triple-B market was downgraded during a cycle , that would amount to about $150 - 300 billion of assets coming into the high yield market - and that 's a significant technical . That said , these are big global companies . Many of them are triple-B because , from a cost of capital perspective , there 's been no real penalty for going from single-A to triple-B - and debt has been cheap . So , they 've been using it to finance things like M&A activity , share buybacks and dividends . To the extent that rates go back up , we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ focus on balance sheet repair in the face of a higher cost of debt . We 've found a few interesting opportunities among triple-B companies that are trading wider than double-B companies in the high yield universe , which have been trading relatively tight - and we 've been able to take advantage of that . Again , these companies have been reporting decent earnings , and they have a lot of flexibility to sell assets . So when they generate cash flow and want to deleverage , they can . Turning the conversation to relative value , as you look across the broad high yield universe today , what kinds of opportunities are you seeing ? We still think there 's good relative value in the market . If you look across what we consider to be our four core asset classes - US and European loans and bonds - spreads today are in the low 400s . With that kind of spread , a 1 per cent default environment , and reasonably strong economic conditions , we think investors are getting well compensated . We 've @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ driven by the technicals we discussed earlier . As we continue to see outflows in this space , we think there is good relative value in the loan market based on the strong financial backdrop . As an example of where market technicals are creating opportunities , we have seen several instances where the loans trade wider than the bonds of the same company - but due to the technical impact of fund flows , the same credit risk is priced differently . These types of situations do n't tend to last long , as capital is relatively fluid in the space , but they do exist and they are a good example of a tactical situation that we try to exploit . Additionally , we tend to find the best value in secured versus unsecured credit today - because at times the market prices secured assets inefficiently . We think not all investors fully appreciate the benefits of asset security throughout economic cycles , sometimes overlooking the fact that it provides a layer of protection in the event of default . As such , we think senior secured @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ yield . Finally , considering an investor 's perspective , what is your view on tactical versus strategic investing in this market ? We think high yield is an asset class to invest in strategically - and the last six months have been a perfect case study of why that makes sense . Spreads in the high yield bond market were at their tightest levels in early October , and widened significantly over the course of the fourth quarter . So , if you were an investor who had bought high yield in early October , you were looking at about a 5 per cent loss near Christmas time ( with just under 7 per cent of principal loss , offset by over 1 per cent of income from the coupon ) . But if you were patient and strategic , and held your investment through the first quarter - your returns recovered significantly ( with about 1 per cent of principal loss in the market , offset by over 3 per cent of income from the coupon over the full 6-month period ) . So , your total @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or almost 5 per cent on an annualised basis . For reference , an investment in the S&P would have been down by about 2 per cent over that same 6-month period . So , while high yield is not a perfect asset class , we think it makes sense for a lot of investors - but it 's of the utmost importance to be patient and strategic . About the authorDavid Mihalick is head of Barings ' US high-yield investments group , chairman of the US High Yield Investment Committee , a member of the global high-yield allocation committee , and a portfolio manager on various high yield strategies . Prior to his current role , he served as head of Baring 's US high-yield credit research group where he was responsible for directing the research efforts of over 25 analysts . He has worked in the financial services industry since 2004. |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves an intransitive verb 'comes' with no NP object, and the second predicate does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the phrase 'out of being in a band' does not involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

Daniel Higgs has built a legacy in the pursuit of his own spiritual truth . Ahead of an appearance at Terraforma festival he talks Matthew Neale through his back catalogue , with detours via mass media indoctrination , a drive-by shooting , and the mystery of how cassettes work The yggdrasil is the great tree of Norse mythology that connects all of the Nine Worlds , the supreme unifier between heaven and ash and everything in between . The term essentially translates as ' Odin 's horse ' , though various hair-splitting etymologies delineate its importance as either a symbol of the gallows or a dread call to Ragnar ? k , the succession of natural disasters and grand battles that ultimately purge the planet of humanity , the better to purify its scorched earth once more . It is part-way through a discussion of this concept with Daniel Higgs that he turns his ire to CD-ROMs . " So you get a tool user 's manual , and then you got ta watch a movie about it before you can go use it , you know ? It makes me uneasy , " he tells @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be in conversation with Higgs , the former frontman of legendary post-hardcore band Lungfish , is to be frequently drawn down such rabbit holes -- only to be dragged sideways at the last moment , a fresh excavation each time . If it sounds exhausting , nothing could be further from the truth . It 's an invigorating seventy minutes . Coming up on Dischord alongside Fugazi , who also formed in 1987 , the hardcore spirit at the heart of Lungfish was always rendered weirder and more exploratory by Higgs ' fascination with occult , pagan and alternative cosmologies , a spiritual journey that his solo work has taken even further . 2010 's Say God , for example , is largely made up of quasi-religious spoken-word mantras , including around a hundred invocations to ' say god ' in the title track . Higgs ' hardcore spirit -- the one that began way back with Baltimore punks The Reptile House back in the 80s -- lives on , though it 's undeniably got quieter over the years . Now two albums deep into Fountainsun , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ seems to be channelling the old gods with more power than ever , even if it 's mostly via banjo and poetry these days . Here the artist picks out ten of his favourite releases from various projects with a few gloriously off-road excursions along the way . The Pupils -- The Pupils ( 2002 ) Daniel Higgs : Asa Osborne and I spent a year recording this record in his house . We composed the songs as we recorded them , exclusively . It was a lot of fun making the record , and I think the songs are pretty simple . It 's kind of a lean recording . It was put to me that I should think about what records would provide a good introduction to my work , an indication of what I 've been doing all this time , which is not usually how I think about what I 'm doing ; I usually just think about what I 'm doing now . But I think this one is a good entry point . Lungfish -- Love Is Love ( 2003 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the last two Lungfish records , and they 're the culmination of almost twenty years of collaboration . With those two records the quest was over . If you never heard any other Lungfish records those are the two to hear , in my opinion -- if you 're not going to sit down and listen to them all . Earlier on , I cared more about what critics thought of our records -- I 'd always check to see if Maximum Rocknroll had reviewed it or something . At a certain point they stopped reviewing records I had anything to do with ; it seemed we no longer met whatever their criteria was . So I did pay attention to reviews when I was younger , but after a while I realised I always felt strange after reading them . Even more interestingly , it did n't matter whether they were positive or negative reviews . I just felt queasy reading them . Today I would n't even know where to read them . I think formerly if a record did n't get reviewed , it did @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . There are many albums released that do n't get anything written about them , which is a blessing and a curse I guess . Any time I use the internet in a leisurely way , I feel like I 'm wasting my time . I get the same feeling from the internet that I get from channel-surfing on the television . I do n't know what kind of brain waves are generated -- delta waves , or gamma rays , or whatever -- but low waves . And then you just feel gutted after fifteen minutes . The promise of the internet that was so exciting for people was that you can be the programmer ; you can choose what to explore and what to learn about , what to view or listen to . But that power of choice does n't make it any less oppressive . Even if it 's quality stuff ! You can watch a concert by a master musician on YouTube , the whole concert , and still feel emptied out , scooped out , like it took something from you . I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wish I could spend less . Lungfish -- Feral Hymns ( 2005 ) Most of the other Lungfish records had been recorded in Arlington , Virginia , and the great surprise with this final record was that it was recorded elsewhere . There were some things about the way our records sounded that we were never completely happy with , but we did n't know about any alternatives . With the last album we went out to record it in California with Tim Green , and we had a really positive recording experience -- to me the final Lungfish record is the only one that really sounds like the band to me . It was nice to finally accomplish that , because it did n't seem possible . It seemed to me that recording music would always be sonically a disappointment -- to me that was just part of the project , that was what happened when you recorded . So the last record we thought sounded great , and I still think it sounds great . Daniel Higgs -- Ancestral Songs ( 2006 ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . My mother had just passed , so that 's a major one . Just a couple of weeks after that I was in Chicago , and just as I parked my car and opened the door to get out , I heard gun shots . I jumped back in the car and after a few minutes , I peeked up : not even half a block away , a man had been gunned down in a drive-by shooting . In broad daylight . Some other things happened after that -- the police arrived , the neighbours started looking out of their windows . And then a few minutes later a marching band paraded by , on the street at the end of the block . Of course , the marching band had no idea that someone had just been murdered . It really got me , and this phrase came to me spontaneously : I said , " We 're living in the kingdom of death , you know ? " And then I wrote that song , so it 's obviously connected to that -- the impermanence of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2007 ) The melodies are coming and going , disappearing and reappearing in different forms . I do n't just mean my melodies and songs , I mean the total melodies and songs . I think when I stopped making music with Lungfish , I could just go wandering on my own , through myself . I was much more limited in how I could perform my songs as well , because I just had to rely on myself rather than bandmates to help out . I 'd been working with the band my entire adult life at that point , since I was a teenager even , but it did n't even occur to me to work with anyone else for this record . Good music comes out of being in a band , but it comes out of strife , and that gets old . Everybody 's heard these stories before , lived through them . Any workplace is insane , is n't it ? You have to accept people , warts and all , and work together . This record was again recorded with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ me -- I have n't worked with too many different recordists , but of those I have , he 's by far my favourite . Daniel Higgs -- Atomic Yggdrasil Tarot ( 2007 ) I released this as CD plus book . The music on the CD and the pictures and writing in the book are more parallel than connected ; I was recording the music at the same time I was creating the pictures , so that was how they 're connected . But I put this on the list more for the recording than the book . It 's definitely the most sonically harsh recording that I 've released . But in that harshness and destroyed distortion , there 's a lot of small voices coming out , and I really like that . Bettina Richards , Thrill Jockey founder said she liked the recording , but that it was so harsh-sounding , and was that how I wanted it to sound ? I said yes , so they sent it off to be mastered . I got a call from the engineer saying , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ know what to do with it , it sounds crazy and I do n't know how you want it . " I told him I wanted it to sound exactly how it sounded before it was mastered . He said , " You want me to run this cassette through $20,000 worth of mastering equipment ? And sound like nothing 's happened to it ? " I said yeah . Everyone was perplexed by that , but I still think it was the right decision . Daniel Higgs -- Devotional Songs of Daniel Higgs ( 2009 ) I think this is one of my more realised collection of songs . It 's all recorded straight to cassette , and then released on cassette , and I like that it did n't jump format between recording and release . I still think cassettes are a pretty miraculous format , for many reasons : I like the scrolling aspect , that it 's wound up like a scroll ; if you record on four-track you realise that all the music is recorded on one side of the tape . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you put a needle on a record , even if the amplifier 's off you can get a little sound off the record from the needle , and you can sort of grasp how the technology works . Now with magnetic tape , I 've had it explained to me before in plain , simple English how it works -- it 's a sequence of positive and negative charges . I 've understood the explanations but I still have no idea how it works . It makes no sense to me whatsoever . This was made directly for cassette , but I 've never made something directly for the internet . With a physical record , listening is a more deliberate act . So many people are listening to music all the time -- it 's just non-stop , and then it 's like you 're living in a shopping mall . I 'd travel on public transport , and see people listening to music on their Walkman , and for what ? To kill time , to put their mind elsewhere . It 's amazing that music can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ subliminally desire a product . Music can make you really pumped up about driving your tank into a village and rolling over some little houses . There 's all these things that music can do , and the corporation knows every single one of ' em . The spectrum of applied music towards desired behaviours . So I do n't music to put me elsewhere . I use music to feel where I really am . The other thing with me is that I play music to find out where I really am in the world , and that 's the thing that 's really been lost . Just as literacy has diminished our memory faculty , modern practices have taken away music-making from so many people . In a not too distant age in the past , if you wanted to hear music , the only way to hear it was to find someone who was making some or to make some yourself . And if you have to make it yourself , you do it with whatever 's on hand -- if you have a flute in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on that , and you have a musical encounter with the mystery that 's within you . You get acquainted with that , and the more you get acquainted with it , the more mysterious it gets . So you know , music is a mighty tool that most of us are squandering on superficial delights , titillations and stimulations . I 'm not trying to imply that I 've broken free or anything , because I have n't . I 'm struggling all the time with the ambient , all-pervading mind control apparatus just like everyone else . I just try to be conscious of it , and to pay attention to how strange I feel after being exposed to mass media . There 's a lot of forms of it I have n't been exposed to , like social media . But you know , I feel strange even after reading a newspaper . I can read a high-quality publication with smart writers who really know what they 're talking about , and then some sensationalist gossip-type newspaper , I get the same feeling from both . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . If you enjoy being outraged , you know where to get the outrage ; if you enjoy having the feeling that you 're well-informed , you know where to get the well-informed feeling . If you like the feeling of subverting the state , you know where to get that feeling . All these feelings , they 're just like flavours of ice cream . Daniel Higgs -- Say God ( 2010 ) I had so many words for this album , and I knew when I went to record it that they were going to be the focus . I sang in rock & roll bands for over 20 years , singing in loud bands with electric guitars and drums , so I had become someone who sang very loud and could project pretty well , because often we were recording with inadequate soundsystems . When I stopped playing with the band , and started playing mostly acoustic instruments , I still sang very loud . And when I would try to sing more quietly , since I had no practice at that , I felt @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sing well . It took many years to bring down my vocal volume . Now I can sing very quietly if I wish . I remember the feeling in my throat recording Say God , that I was becoming aware of undesirable overtones in my voice . I was trying to sing more like the way I felt , rather than sing the only way I knew . I recorded this one with Dave Sitek , who 's also from Baltimore ; by this time he had moved to LA and was now a record producer . But because we knew each other from Baltimore , he 'd always said he 'd love to make a recording with me sometime . So I made that with him as he was simultaneously doing his other work . The lyrics are obviously all connected , every lyric I 've ever written in my entire life . But they were at a particular pitch at that time , and I had a very strong desire to communicate with the larger society of which I 'm a part , because I felt @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you have to listen to it in the right frame of mind , at the right time of day , or at the right time of the year . Otherwise there 's no way to get in . It 's almost like an equinox record -- everything lines up and then you can go into the record to check it out . Fountainsun -- Music Today ( 2015 ) Fumii and I had been together for a few years at this point , while I 'd been making music and performing solo for over 10 years . I was really feeling that I needed to play with someone else , that I had gone into an inward spiral with making music alone and I 'd taken it as far as I could . I was stuck , and I needed to collaborate with someone to keep making music . At that time I was playing a lot of instrumental banjo music , and the obvious thing was to find a drummer . Fumii really encouraged that , so I started playing with different people here and there . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Other people were too stuck in what they were doing . I found a pair of these ceramic goblet drums from North Africa in a junk shop . I brought them home , and as I was playing the banjo , Fumii started playing on them with some chopsticks or something . Immediately it was obvious that she was the drummer , and I 'd been living with her the whole time ! I knew that she loved music , but I did n't know that she played . Right then I said , " Let 's start a band . " We got some more drums , and that 's how we started Fountainsun . Fountainsun -- Sweep The Temple ( 2016 ) Now we 're back with Tim Green . Fumii and I went to see him in northern California , near the Nevada border , and we had a great experience there with him -- he even played a little bit on the record . I love the sound on it . After mostly playing in a quartet in my early years @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was a completely different experience . But particularly in live performances , the communication I feel between the two of us and the audience is always very free , very easy , very posmic -- that 's a word we use sometimes as a combination of positive and cosmic . There 's a man in Baltimore who always says it when you pass by him on the street . That 's a great word , is n't it ?

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee, and the phrase 'out of complaining' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the means by which the career was built, which is not a characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

For Canadian fun-punks PUP , life 's a double-edged sword . You can hear it in their music -- a spirited , razor-sharp riff on pop-tinged punk , which houses some truly dark subject matter , be it mental illness , masochistic thought , or quite simply wanting to murder every other member of the band you 're in . It 's an approach that 's seen them heralded as one of the modern punk scene 's very best . That two-tone take is none more evident than on ' Morbid Stuff ' , their latest ( and greatest ) album . A record that perfects PUP 's approach , it 's seen them leap ahead of many of their peers , stage sizes swelling , and primetime TV appearances on Late Night with Seth Meyers upping the ante . Through it all , though , the Toronto band have kept two things to close to their collective heart : a DIY punk sensibility , and a fine-tuned self-loathing . We met the band at Leeds ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and more . Stefan Babcock ( vocals/guitar ) : It 's fucking awesome . It is crazy . I get nervous when we start writing and recording a record . Every song that we write , I 'm kinda like , ' Is the well dry ? ' Steve Sladkowski ( guitar ) : " ' Is the milk gone bad ? ' " Stefan : " Yeah , that 's where my anxieties with this band come from . But I think when ' Morbid Stuff ' was done , we all felt like it was the strongest thing that we 'd done . At that point , it 's not in your control anymore . At that point , it 's like , ' We 're happy with this thing , we 're stoked and proud of it , and if people like it and this thing grows -- awesome . And if people do n't like it and this thing putters , then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : It 's liberating , in a way . ' Cause it ceases to be yours . Once test pressings showed up , it was like , ' well , these songs do n't really belong to us anymore . ' Stefan : " I 'm happy that I 'm able to be as self-aware as I am . And be open about all of my flaws . I 'm not proud of myself for being a dick . Laughs I 'm proud that I was able to verbalise a lot of the shit that I 've been going through in a way that at least made sense to me . I am my own reckoning ... I mean , it 's hard to talk shit @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Just being at peace with that part of myself is something to be proud of . " Stefan : " Yeah , and that definitely exacerbates everything . I think everybody -- whether you struggle with mood disorders or not -- has a similar thing , where you think if you get this one more thing , everything 's gon na be better . I worked really hard at music my whole life and for me it was like , ' If I can just do this as a job , I wo n't be depressed any more . ' The reality is just : you are who you are . I had to face a pretty harsh reality . I 've ticked off a lot of the things that I wanted to accomplish with this band -- the things I thought were gon na make me happy -- and I had to come face to face with the fact that I kinda am just this type of person @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sort of therapeutic good in even just being able to speak about this . The four of us are able to talk about it , both individually and as a group , which has allowed us to take care of each other , in a way that I think is actively discouraged in the lives that we lead . " Stefan : " I think it 's possible for it to be both , which it is for me . I 'm travelling with my best friends in the world , and I fucking hate them . Not always . Actually , not even very often . But ... I was talking about just being self-aware and honest . I think if you asked all of us lyrically what our favourite song from the last record was , it would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that all four of us relate to . It 's good to have that out in the open . We tour a lot , and yeah , we fucking complain a lot -- I mean , we 've built a career out of complaining . But at the end of the day , the good definitely outweighs all the bad for all four of us . By a large margin . " Steve : " We fundamentally disagree with the idea that musicians or artists or whatever are special . Or somehow any different . ' Cause I do n't think that 's true . I mean , Stefan said it in ' Free At Last ' : " It does n't make you special . " Steve : " I was walking home from rehearsal . I think I was a little bit demoralised , and it was icy and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ phone , and I went , ' Holy fuck ! ' I swear to god , I thought I misread the alert . It still does n't feel real . " Stefan : " ' Cause I do n't participate in pop culture , I did n't quite realise that it was gon na be a big deal . I thought it was cool . I was like , ' Yeah , it 's something my Grandma can watch . ' But I did n't really realise until other people started making a big deal out of it . And then it started freaking me out . I was like , ' Oh fuck , better not screw this up . ' Stefan : " I think it 's important to not forget what you 've spent 15 years doing . In terms of the DIY thing , we 've always been DIY individuals , even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for ourselves . Little Dipper'sallowed us to keep everything that matters to us -- the music and the videos and the zines . That allows us to keep control of that . Steve : " Coming up in DIY and that world , the idea of community is obviously a central element of that , right ? Touring is a very specific experience of a place , and of a community , and a group of people associated with that place . It at times like it was very finite . As much as you can kinda make an impact on people in that hour that you 're on stage , it could be more complete . " It 's a tried-and-true element of political involvement , that you make the most impact at a local level . There are obviously causes that are very dear both to us and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ band . And so anything that we can do to reflect both of those things -- mental health , and music education , and queer and at-risk youth . Stefan : " It 's giving a voice to people who do n't have as big a voice as we have . " Stefan : " Still is , yeah . We 're not as connected as we 'd like to be , because we 're gone so much . In North America , we always choose someone from the Greater Toronto area to come on tour with us . For a Canadian band , trying to get an opportunity in America is fucked . It 's impossible . We kinda feel like it 's our duty to do that with other Toronto bands . We would n't have gotten to where we are now without so many people helping us . So , you know , it 's our kinda job to give that chance back to people . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Toronto , though , that is happening elsewhere . Cost of living is going up , and venues are closing . But there 's sort of a resilience in that community to find a new place to play . There 's a whole underground dance music culture in Toronto that is more vibrant than it has ever been . There 's just so much going on all the time . " Stefan : " I 'll see my parents at Christmas . It 'll be fine . I looked at the list of shows today and I went , ' Oh fuck . ' But just take it day by day . Nine out of every -- no , that 's a lie . Four out of every five days are fucking wicked . That 's important .

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('You can get out of paying resort fees'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the subject 'You' is causing the object (implied 'yourself') to avoid 'paying resort fees' by means of some action (getting out of it). The verb 'get' can be considered as using nonspecific means, which is one of the categories of verbs that can appear in the V1 slot of the construction. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Resort fees can include anything from the gym and swimming pool to internet and phone calls . The average resort fee is an additional $30 ( ? 23 ) a night , according to Forbes , although some hotels charge as much as $160 ( ? 125 ) a night - which can end up doubling the cost of your hotel stay if you manage to find a cheap deal . Some hotels list the resort charge , including how much it costs and what it includes , on their websites , such as the Waldorf Astoria in Florida . And the fee is n't just charged at resorts - some hotels also charge it but call it an amenities fee . Even if guests have n't used any of the facilities on offer , the charge still applies . Not all hotels charge resort fees - and some only charge the fee to certain guests - for example , if they booked through a third party via a particularly cheap deal .

You can get out of paying resort fees if some of the amenities are not up to scratch - for example , closed pools or slow WiFi .

Hotels have an incentive to offer lower rates on bookings sites and make up the difference through resort fees - but if Booking.com 's new policy comes into play , this might not be a good deal for them .

" Resort fees currently only affect Brits heading to countries such as the US as they do not exist in the UK due to pricing laws . While resort fees are the most common hidden fee , there are plenty of others levied by unscrupulous hotels . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'boot her out of Downing Street' involves the verb 'boot' followed by 'her out of Downing Street', which is a location rather than a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no VP[-ing] predicate that would allow for a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it does not meet the criteria for the transitive out of -ing construction.

The Prime Minister 's new 10-point compromise plan has been dismissed by every group she was attempting to woo , including Labour , the DUP and Tory Brexiteers , one of who labelled it " dead on arrival " . The last-ditch attempt to shore up support included offering a vote on whether to hold a second referendum , as well as a choice over the UK 's future customs arrangements . While Mrs May 's Withdrawal Agreement Bill ( WAB ) offers compromises , it would not be reopened and renegotiated with the European Union . Although the Prime Minister 's compromises are a bid to appeal to Remainer MPs , some 20 Conservatives , who held their noses to back her deal last time , have announced they can not vote for the latest version -- including leadership frontrunners Boris Johnson and Dominic Raab . Brexiteer Cabinet ministers are understood to be trying to persuade Mrs May to ditch the fourth attempt to pass her deal , warning the vote will end in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Minister faces a fresh bid to boot her out of Downing Street from the 1922 backbenchers ' committee , which meets later Wednesday .

Tory MP Nigel Evans wants a vote of confidence in Mrs May if her deal is defeated . Credit : PA Tory MP Nigel Evans , who sits on the 1922 executive , told the Sun : " I will be asking my colleagues on the ' 22 executive tomorrow to agree to a rule change so we can hold an immediate confidence vote if Theresa is not prepared to stand down now . " Mrs May announced her " new Brexit deal " on Tuesday after a stormy two-hour meeting with her Cabinet in Downing Street , in which some ministers were said to be on the brink of resignation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " for MPs to deliver on the result of the 2016 referendum and take the UK out of the European Union , and announced a new Bill would be published in the next few days . As well as a vote on a second referendum , MPs will also be offered a choice over the UK 's future customs arrangements after talks with Labour collapsed , in part because of the failure to agree on the issue . They will choose between the Government 's existing proposal , which allows the UK to keep an independent trade policy but delivers some of the benefits of a customs union , or a full -- but temporary -- customs union with the EU which critics warn would leave the UK unable to strike trade deals with countries around the world . In an appeal to MPs , she said that the " biggest problem with Britain today is its politics " but with the right Brexit deal " we can end this corrosive debate " . The commitments would be guaranteed in law and include : A @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ireland backstop by December 2020 , so it never needs to be used A commitment that , should the backstop come into force , the Government will ensure that Great Britain 's border rules stay aligned with Northern Ireland 's Negotiating objectives and final treaties for the UK 's future relationship with the EU will have to be approved by MPs A new Workers ' Rights Bill offering protections at least as favourable as those in the EU No change in the level of environmental protection when the UK leaves the EU As close to frictionless trade with the EU as is possible once the UK has left the single market but an end to free movement of people A commitment to align the UK with EU rules for goods and products to protect thousands of jobs dependent on just-in-time supply chains A commitment to allow MPs to decide on future customs arrangements with the EU A vote for MPs on whether the deal should be subject to a referendum A legal duty to secure changes to the current political declaration @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Street sources said it had not yet been decided whether MPs would be offered a free vote on whether to require a second referendum to " confirm " the deal . But Mrs May left little doubt that she would oppose it , warning that delaying the Brexit process for months more -- perhaps indefinitely -- risked " opening the door to a nightmare future of permanently polarised politics " . In a message to MPs she said : " Reject this deal and leaving the EU with a negotiated deal any time soon will be dead in the water . " Mrs May has staked her political future on the deal , with the timetable for her exit from Number 10 due to be decided following the vote on the WAB . But her hopes of success suffered early blows , with the Democratic Unionist Party , Tory Brexiteers and Labour all lining up to attack the proposals .

" Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn said : " We will of course look seriously at the details of the Withdrawal Agreement Bill when it is published . " But we wo n't back a repackaged version of the same old deal -- and it 's clear that this weak and disintegrating government is unable to deliver on its own commitments . " Not all MPs are opposed to the deal .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'put him out of wrestling' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate, and it does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a physical action (kicking someone out) rather than a causative action with a specific means.

WWE Smackdown Live on USA Network Aired live from Providence , Rhode Island at Dunkin ' Donuts Center Shane was shown backstage and was approached by Elias . He apologized for what happened at Money in the Bank , and blamed his loss on being affected by the crowd reaction to his performance . He said he lost focus , and the entire event was a blur . Elias said the entire McMahon family deserved better , and offered to be in Shane 's corner at Super Showdown . Shane declined the offer , but said he would be in Elias 's corner later on when he faces Roman Reigns . Elias said he was going to go wait for Roman to arrive . In the arena . The announce team of Tom Phillips , Corey Graves , and Byron Saxton plugged Kofi vs . Zayn for later . New Day made their entrance and Kofi and Woods stood on the stage and said tonight marked the return of Big E. They brought out someone covered in a black sheet , and uncovered a man that was not Big E. Woods asked who he was , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to start a fire . He was wearing a Big E sized singlet , but it was 5 sizes too big . Woods and Kofi kicked him backstage , and the real Big E made his entrance with the New Day Pronouncement . All three men walked to the ring , and there were gifts and a sign in the ring to welcome Big E back to the show . Big E played to the crowd and got a nice reaction . He smelled Kofi 's underarm and Woods hair for some reason , and said he missed them and the WWE Universe . Woods said he has been fire on Twitter , and Big E pulled his phone out to send a tweet . Woods whispered that Becky 's Mom is taken , and Big E said he wanted her . They both agreed that she was fine .... but Kofi told them to chill because they want him to be a serious Champion . Kofi made mention of Brock Lesnar 's Money in the Bank win , and it got booed . Woods then said Kofi @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ laughing . This brought out Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn , who said that Big E did n't deserve a party for being out 6 weeks . He was gone for 9 months and got nothing . Big E said they 'd give him the same thing Kevin Owens got on Sunday , and that 's nothing . KO stormed to the back while Zayn said that the only reason Owens did n't beat him in 5 minutes flat was because he was distracted by his best friend being beat down and hung upside down . Zayn said the crowd should stop cheering this toxic culture that New Day is creating . Woods continually interrupted him with the trombone . Sami said he would shut them up later when he beats Kofi in front of all these trash people and show them that their pancakes and hip swivels are a joke . Kofi replied and told him not to get distracted by the pancakes and hip swivels , because when it was time to throw down , they throw down . And when he got in his way @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Becky will take on Charlotte and Lacey later . Backstage , Carmella was walking backstage when she ran into Apollo and Drake maverick looking for R-Truth . She found R-Truth in a costume , who asked for her help him evade all of his challengers . She agreed and they walked into a corridor . In the arena , Ali made his entrance ... c My Take : It 's good to see Big E back , but the humor with Kofi and New Day does n't land as much as it should , and I think it could end up taking away from the potential of this feud if it continues unabated . There are probably fans that really enjoy the goofy humor , and Zayn and Owens did a good job of being sufficiently annoyed by it , but the new Champ could definitely use a good dose of adversity and babyface fire . Andrade and Zelina Vega were in the ring when the show returned . 1 . Andrade vs . Ali : The announce team spoke about Andrade needing to " build momentum @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his tranquilo pose in the ropes . Both men traded lariats , but Andrade 's hit harder , and Ali got turned inside out . He recovered and hit a poisoned huracanrana for a two count . Andrade fired back with a dropkick that took Ali out of mid air for a near fall .... c Andrade dominated the offense during the break . Andrade sent Ali to the floor and dove at him on the outside . He then shoved Ali off the apron into the barricade as he tried to climb back into the ring . He answered the 10 count at 8 . Andrade focused on the back and went for three amigos suplexes . He then tossed Ali back first into the turnbuckles . Ali rolled to the floor , but Andrade followed and slammed him into the barricade and then back first into the post . He then threw Ali into the timekeepers area . Andrade climbed back into the ring and demanded the ref start the count . Ali stumbled several times on the way to the ring , but made the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hit double knees to his back in the corner , but Ali kicked out . Andrade picked him up for a hammerlock DDT , but Ali surprised him with a roll up pinfall and got the surprise victory . Ali defeated Andrade at 11:32 The announce team brought up Elias vs . Roman Reigns , and Lacey and Charlotte vs . Becky and Bayley . Backstage , Carmella gave R-Truth makeover with a blonde wig . She said he was serving looks , and gave him a bra . He asked her to open it , because he 's always had trouble with it . Carmella vs . Mandy Rose is next ... c My Take : Ali and Andrade worked very hard , but the finish seemed like a bit of a goof . I understand the idea of having Ali show the ability to persevere after taking a hellacious beating , but the way the pinfall occured lacked the element of surprise . He did n't roll him up from behind or immediately after an offensive move . He just kind of bowled him over @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have that one back , as it did n't protect Andrade enough . I guess we 'll probably get the 50/50 rebound match next week . We got a Lars Sullivan video package , but it did n't contain anything new . Mandy was in the ring , and Carmella made her entrance . Truth was with her , wearing his belt , so I guess this is the world 's worst camouflage attempt . 2 . Carmella vs . Mandy Rose : Carmella hit a Thesz Press , but Mandy escaped and quickly rolled to the outside . Mandy entered the ring again , but Carmella hit her with a Superkick . Sonya interjected herself in the match , and got beat down . Carmella hit Mandy with another Superkick . The Smackdown under card then made their way out and chased Truth . So I guess that 's the end of the match . He ran off with Carmella on his back . The match ended in an apparent no contest . Backstage , Kayla Braxton interviewed Bayley and asked her about her night @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a brutal night , but she would do it all over again . She said she has always exceeded the expectations set for her , but people still doubted her . She said that she 's moved past the hugs , and she wants the competition in the back to bring their best . Elsewhere , R-Truth and Carmella walked in and out of the Women 's Locker Room with some screaming . They continued to be chased by the B-Team , Jinder Mahal , Brian Kendrick , Apollo , Drake Maverick , etc ... c My Take : I guess WWE wanted to have several segments per show that resemble Zombie movies . Mandy got completely punked out in her match with Carmella , which I do n't quite understand . Truth carrying Carmella around was a funny image , but that 's about it . Bayley taking on a more serious character is welcome in my book , but she has to improve how she delivers her emotional state on the microphone . It 's still too monotone . Elias was shown waiting for Roman Reigns @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ entrance for the next match . Backstage , Big E was shown on the ground injured . He said it was Owens . Kofi made his entrance while Sami cackled in the ring . 3 . Kofi Kingston vs . Sami Zayn : Kofi started the match fired up . He sent Zayn to the floor and then hit a clothesline on the outside . In the ring , Kofi beat down Sami in the corner . Sami fought his way out and sent Kofi to the floor with a back body drop . He then tossed Kofi into the steps and did a dance to annoy the crowd . Sami continued the beat down in the ring , and stomped on Kofi in the corner . Kofi fired back with a big dropkick , and Sami retreated to the floor . Sami had a big red scrape or welt on his side from a bump earlier in the match ... c Sami hit a superplex and set up for the Heluva Kick . Kofi avoided it and took Sami down with a flying forearm and punches . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Paradise , but Sami avoided it . Kofi managed to hit it a second time , and got the win . Kofi Kingston defeated Sami Zayn at 8:23 Bayley and Becky vs . Charlotte and Lacey is up next . Paul Heyman walked out with the Money in the Bank briefcase . Heyman talked trash and said now was the perfect time . Dolph Ziggler then made a return and attacked Kofi Kingston from behind . He took Kofi down and pulled him out to the floor . He then draped him over the bottom turnbuckle and pulled him into a tree of woe position . While he was hung upside down , Ziggler gouged at his eyes . At ringside . Ziggler tossed Kofi over the announce desk . He then wrapped a chair around his head and threw him into the side of the announce desk . He then stomped on Kofi with a chair on him until refs pulled them apart . Dolph came back one more time and stomped on Kofi after wrapping him up in a chair . Kofi ended up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a great job of repeatedly moving Kofi 's neck while placing him into the board . After Ziggler left , a New Day Rocks chant broke out . As they got towards the top of the stage , Kofi attempted to roll off the stretcher , and eventually got to his feet and left under his own power .... c My Take : The early part of that beat down seemed like it happened in slow motion . The tree of woe and eye gouge spot did n't go well , but it improved after that . What is Dolph Ziggler 's motivation this time ? If he does n't have a radically new character , people are going to cool off on this quick . It 's hard to buy him as a world champion after the last few years of booking , and it will take some work to reverse that impression . Roman Reigns was approaching the arena from the parking lot , and Elias serenaded him from the top of the Smackdown equipment truck . He said it was time to take the Big @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ looked embarrassed for Elias . In the arena , Lacey Evans made her entrance , followed by Charlotte . Becky was interviewed backstage , and was asked about her state of mind . Becky said she does n't feel right without her blue belt , but if someone has to have it without beating her , she 's glad it 's her . Bayley walked up and said she kind of likes the sound of Bayley two belts . Becky said after they are done with them , she 's coming for her next . This came across as both playful and serious . Becky then made her entrance , followed by Bayley ... c 3 . Charlotte and Lacey Evans vs . Becky Lynch and Bayley : The match began during the break , with Charlotte getting dumped to the floor . Lacey entered the match and tried to take down Bayley , but was quickly repelled . Charlotte got back into the match with a Big Boot and some stomps on a downed Bayley . Charlotte prevented a tag by pulling Becky from the apron , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tagged in Lacey . They made some quick tags and Charlotte continued to grind on Bayley . She escaped after an extended beating and made a hot tag.Becky tagged in a cleaned house . She knocked Lacey off the apron and sent Charlotte crashing into the corner . Becky rolled up Charlotte , but she reversed and grabbed the ropes for leverage . The ref saw it and refused the three count . Becky turned Charlotte into a Disarmher , but Lacey ran in and hit the Woman 's Right . Becky rolled to the corner and made a tag . Bayley sent Lacey flying off the apron , and then surprised Charlotte with a roll up for the win . Becky and Bayley defeated Charlotte and Lacey at 8:37 After the match , they went backstage to Truth and Carmella making their escape . Truth had to fight off the B-Team and Jinder Mahal , but was able to avoid a pinfall and run out into the parking lot to presumably get away for the evening . My Take : I 'm surprised they did @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Match . Since the next major show is in Saudi Arabia and the Women wo n't have a PPV title defense in a while , you 'd presume we 'll see some title matches on television sooner or later . We 'll have to wait another week until they start to justify it with the booking . Dolph Ziggler was interviewed backstage and asked why he attacked Dolph Ziggler . He said it was an honest question that deserved an honest answer . Dolph said he was n't going to give her the answer , he would give it to all of them . He then walked out towards the stage with the microphone . Dolph said if he was out in the crowd he 'd be booing him too . He said this goes back to when Ali got hurt and Kofi stepped up , and it should have been in . He said Kofi ran the gauntlet , and it should have been him . He walked out of the Elimination Chamber a star , and it should have been him . And at WrestleMania , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the better man , and it should have been him . Dolph went on to say that Kofi continues to outperform his critics expectations , and he earned the respect of the crowd , and they love him and it should have been him . He said he beat down Kofi because he had to . Dolph got manic and said that at Super Showdown , he would defeat Kofi Kingston for the WWE Title because he has to . He would get the love and respect of the crowd because he deserves it and it should have been him . The announce team then introduced a video package that detailed the history between Randy Orton and Triple H. It was a recap of everything from Evolution forward . Shane McMahon then made his ring entrance with a microphone . He then introduced Elias , who played a little tune ... c My Take : That was a pretty good individual performance from Ziggler , but I was n't a fan of the material . Desperate and unstable characters work in certain environments because they are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ least expect it . That 's what happened earlier in the show . But the usual payoff is that the hero gets smartened up to the schemes and the villain gets a lopsided comeuppance . Is that the story they are telling here ? If so , how is it markedly different from anything Ziggler has done in the last few years ? Roman Reigns made his entrance . 4 . Roman Reigns vs . Elias : Roman dominated the early going . He hit several punches and sent Elias to the floor , where he hit a drive by kick . Roman then turned his attention to Shane , who distracted him enough to allow Elias to kick the middle rope into Roman 's junk and hit a DDT . He then sent Roman hard into the post , and hit a lariat on the outside ... c Roman was in control and hitting clotheslines in the corner . He then hit a big boot and played up to the crowd . Roman fired up for a superman punch , but Shane grabbed his leg , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Elias set him up in the electric chair position , but Roman escaped and set Elias in position for a superplex . He then picked up Elias for a Samoan Drop from the top , but Elias slipped out and hit a sit out powerbomb for a near fall . Elias pulled Roman to his feet , and they traded punches . Reigns took down Elias and hit a drive by kick on Shane on the outside . The distraction allowed Elias to lay out Roman with a lariat and hit a top rope elbow for a near fall . Elias took off the turnbuckle cover as a distraction and Shane fed him his guitar behind the ref 's back . Roman ended up hitting a spear and getting the pin anyways . Roman Reigns defeated Elias at 11:51 After the match , Shane jumped Reigns and attempted to hit him with the guitar , Reigns avoided it and hit a Superman Punch , but Drew McIntyre snuck up from behind and laid out Reigns with a Claymore Kick . Shane and Drew trash talked Reigns to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to look completely outclassed by Reigns , so I guess they are going to define him out of the main event for now . Drew making good on his promise from Raw was a nice surprise at the end of the match , but I am already starting to feel the fatigue of this storyline struggling under its own weight . Shane has Elias , the B-Team , and now Drew McIntyre as his lackeys , and I do n't think a single one will end up benefiting from being involved . There is the outside chance that Drew gets a win over Roman in a TV match at some point , but it feels a bit hollow considering what happened at WrestleMania . This feud would be much more interesting if that match had ended differently . I 'm probably alone in this , but I like comedy in my wrestling , the 24/7 belt is funny to me . Especially how R Truth is using it . I have no problem . Now that being said , It 's good this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tone in the booking . I 'm entertained . It was funny last night , but the gimmick was only 24 hours old at that point . I ca n't see how they can make this go for more than 3/4 more weeks without having completely run out of ideas and/or undercard wrestlers to carry them out . Dolph Ziggler is Mothula to Kofi Kingston 's Link in Legend Of Zelda a Link To The Past . He poses no serious threat to Kingston 's championship whatsoever .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'put him out of wrestling' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate, and there is no clear movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to describe a physical action resulting in a state ('out of wrestling') rather than a construction with the specified grammatical properties.

Since the next major show is in Saudi Arabia and the Women wo n't have a PPV title defense in a while , you 'd presume we 'll see some title matches on television sooner or later . We 'll have to wait another week until they start to justify it with the booking . Dolph Ziggler was interviewed backstage and asked why he attacked Dolph Ziggler . He said it was an honest question that deserved an honest answer . Dolph said he was n't going to give her the answer , he would give it to all of them . He then walked out towards the stage with the microphone . Dolph said if he was out in the crowd he 'd be booing him too . He said this goes back to when Ali got hurt and Kofi stepped up , and it should have been in . He said Kofi ran the gauntlet , and it should have been him . He walked out of the Elimination Chamber a star , and it should have been him . And at WrestleMania , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the better man , and it should have been him . Dolph went on to say that Kofi continues to outperform his critics expectations , and he earned the respect of the crowd , and they love him and it should have been him . He said he beat down Kofi because he had to . Dolph got manic and said that at Super Showdown , he would defeat Kofi Kingston for the WWE Title because he has to . He would get the love and respect of the crowd because he deserves it and it should have been him . The announce team then introduced a video package that detailed the history between Randy Orton and Triple H. It was a recap of everything from Evolution forward . Shane McMahon then made his ring entrance with a microphone . He then introduced Elias , who played a little tune ... c My Take : That was a pretty good individual performance from Ziggler , but I was n't a fan of the material . Desperate and unstable characters work in certain environments because they are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ least expect it . That 's what happened earlier in the show . But the usual payoff is that the hero gets smartened up to the schemes and the villain gets a lopsided comeuppance . Is that the story they are telling here ? If so , how is it markedly different from anything Ziggler has done in the last few years ? Roman Reigns made his entrance . 4 . Roman Reigns vs . Elias : Roman dominated the early going . He hit several punches and sent Elias to the floor , where he hit a drive by kick . Roman then turned his attention to Shane , who distracted him enough to allow Elias to kick the middle rope into Roman 's junk and hit a DDT . He then sent Roman hard into the post , and hit a lariat on the outside ... c Roman was in control and hitting clotheslines in the corner . He then hit a big boot and played up to the crowd . Roman fired up for a superman punch , but Shane grabbed his leg , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Elias set him up in the electric chair position , but Roman escaped and set Elias in position for a superplex . He then picked up Elias for a Samoan Drop from the top , but Elias slipped out and hit a sit out powerbomb for a near fall . Elias pulled Roman to his feet , and they traded punches . Reigns took down Elias and hit a drive by kick on Shane on the outside . The distraction allowed Elias to lay out Roman with a lariat and hit a top rope elbow for a near fall . Elias took off the turnbuckle cover as a distraction and Shane fed him his guitar behind the ref 's back . Roman ended up hitting a spear and getting the pin anyways . Roman Reigns defeated Elias at 11:51 After the match , Shane jumped Reigns and attempted to hit him with the guitar , Reigns avoided it and hit a Superman Punch , but Drew McIntyre snuck up from behind and laid out Reigns with a Claymore Kick . Shane and Drew trash talked Reigns to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to look completely outclassed by Reigns , so I guess they are going to define him out of the main event for now . Drew making good on his promise from Raw was a nice surprise at the end of the match , but I am already starting to feel the fatigue of this storyline struggling under its own weight . Shane has Elias , the B-Team , and now Drew McIntyre as his lackeys , and I do n't think a single one will end up benefiting from being involved . There is the outside chance that Drew gets a win over Roman in a TV match at some point , but it feels a bit hollow considering what happened at WrestleMania . This feud would be much more interesting if that match had ended differently . I 'm probably alone in this , but I like comedy in my wrestling , the 24/7 belt is funny to me . Especially how R Truth is using it . I have no problem . Now that being said , It 's good this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tone in the booking . I 'm entertained . It was funny last night , but the gimmick was only 24 hours old at that point . I ca n't see how they can make this go for more than 3/4 more weeks without having completely run out of ideas and/or undercard wrestlers to carry them out . Dolph Ziggler is Mothula to Kofi Kingston 's Link in Legend Of Zelda a Link To The Past . He poses no serious threat to Kingston 's championship whatsoever . Of all of the people they could have chosen for this event and they went with Ziggler , a guy who was more or less a lackey for Drew McIntyre for several months until McIntyre grew tired of him , kicked his ass to the curb and nearly put him out of wrestling in a kayfabe sense ?

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves an intransitive verb 'come' with no NP object and the second predicate 'something so tragic' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

A couple who lost their daughter in the Manchester Arena terror blast are launching a charity to help future victims of tragedy , saying support needs to be in place before an atrocity happens again . Andrew and Lisa Roussos lost their eight-year-old daughter , Saffie , in the attack two years ago today . She was the youngest of the 22 victims . The couple reveal they could n't have coped in the aftermath of the tragedy without the overwhelming public support of the Manchester Fund , and have now set up a charity , MCR 22 , aimed at supporting future victims of terror attacks . Andrew and Lisa RoussosSaffie Roussos Andrew told HuffPost UK how no-one knows when a terrorist attack could strike and revealed he and his family even took steps to evade terror hotspots by cancelling family holidays . He says the aim of MCR 22 is to raise funds to provide all aspects of help to victims and families in the event of any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that nothing like that ever happens again , but the reality is that terrorism is a modern day threat and if it hits and you are affected , you need the right support and backing to try to come to terms with it . " Before the arena attack happened , the Roussos family took pains to protect themselves from being exposed to terrorism -- and even cancelled a family holiday to Disneyland Paris in 2015 after a wave of terror attacks took place in France . The family re-booked at a later date but steered clear from the centre of Paris to try to ensure their safety . Andrew and Lisa Roussos Andrew said : " We avoided hotspots , particularly when there were troubles , and any situations where a terrorist attack could potentially happen . " We never imagined it would happen at a concert . Unfortunately , the truth is , terrorism can happen anywhere . This charity will be UK-wide and for anyone who might end up needing it . " He added : " You never think it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us . If it does happen , your life is never the same again and you need the support to get through it . " Saffie went to her first ever concert with her mum , Lisa , and sister , Ashlee Bromwich , to see her idol Ariana Grande perform . At the end of the concert , a suicide bomber detonated a device that killed Saffie and injured her mum and sister . She came close to death herself and spent six weeks in a coma . She only learned of her daughter 's death once she regained consciousness Lisa feared she would never walk again and has spent almost two years undergoing rehabilitation and physiotherapy . She managed to complete the Manchester 10k at the weekend to raise funds for the new charity they are creating . Lisa told HuffPost UK : " It was very emotional and I felt Saffie was with me all the way helping me through it . " Saffie is always with me . She was such a determined little girl with her own achievements and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Halfway round , I got some pain in my knee , but after a while , it eased up and I kept going . The reaction and support I got from everyone was so overwhelming and everyone was so kind . " I remember wondering if I would ever walk again . If someone had told me a year ago I would walk 10k , I would have said ' no way ' . " Andrew and Lisa RoussosLisa Roussos at the Manchester 10K Lisa says her aspirations for the MCR 22 charity are to help other victims and to take Saffie 's legacy into the future . She explained : " For me , it gives me something to take Saffie into the future -- I can not leave her behind . " If we can be there to offer even just a little bit of support to other people , it will be good . It really does help when you find someone who knows exactly how you feel . " When someone has been through something similar , you feel a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " I think it is very important to have that common ground and that 's what we want to offer with this charity -- we want to reach out and support families . " Something positive has to come out of something so tragic . " The couple owned a fish and chip shop in Leyland , Lancashire , but decided to sell up and move to the south of England after the tragedy as they knew it would be too painful to return there without Saffie . Andrew and Lisa RoussosSaffie Roussos with her brother Xander Andrew says without the support of the public shown through the We Love Manchester emergency fund , he and his family and other victims could not have survived . He believes they faced being on the streets as they would have struggled financially . He told HuffPost UK : " After what happened , we were at Wythenshawe Hospital in Manchester for three-and-a-half months . " It is bad enough leaving hospital and facing the prospect of starting life again without your daughter . But when we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there ? ' the answer was : ' not much ' . " The only government support was criminal justice compensation of ? 5,500 per parent -- so ? 11,000 for losing our daughter . That is the maximum compensation . It is an insult . " If it had n't been for the overwhelming generosity of the public with the Manchester fund , we would have been on the streets once the ? 11,000 ran out . We could not return to normality and we had lost our daughter and our business . " It is not that you want money after an atrocity like that , but you need the head space to think about how you can function . " Andrew says the goal of MCR 22 is to help people affected by terrorism in different ways , whether that is re-building their lives , additional medical care or coping with mental health . He says although he and his family did not take up mental health support and counselling , it was offered to them during Lisa 's long stay in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to many other people affected by the terror attack who struggled to get mental health support or faced long delays . Andrew and Lisa RoussosSaffie Roussos He has also praised the headteacher of Saffie 's school , Chris Upton at Tarleton Community Primary School , for the way he plugged the gap to support her devastated classmates . Andrew said : " The headteacher at Saffie 's school had children aged seven and eight knocking on his door and crying because they were so traumatised by what happened . " It was the only school in the UK where it affected that age group and he had no support . He went on courses to learn how to look after bereaved children of such a young age . " He now goes into other schools to give talks to teachers just in case it happens to them in the future . He is a diamond of a man and they are lucky to have him .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'get' is transitive and selects an NP object 'more pleasure', but the phrase 'out of seeing my family and my staff succeed' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the source of pleasure, which is not related to the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It uses 'Taking the formality out of banking' which is a gerund phrase acting as a title or heading, not a full sentence with the required components of the transitive out of -ing construction. Additionally, there is no clear causer or causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Shares Image credit : Shutterstock Imagine you 're meeting with your bank manager . The chances are , you 'll ' dress up ' to give a certain impression , to look like the kind of person that meets their expectations . Perhaps you put on a suit or business attire , to make sure you appear serious , as appearance could be a factor in taking your banking request into account . You fit into a mould to try to get the best response : credit , an advantageous rate , a repayment rate . You adopt a serious look on your face and perhaps even speak differently . It seems normal to adapt to the bank 's norms even if they are not your own . These codes and behaviours are ingrained , like a ritual . You put on not simply your best suit , but the most sober one , to fit the occasion . If the banker decides that money is too complex for you , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you do n't understand anything about your finances , using haughty language and perhaps a dismissive tone . If , on the other hand , you 're a client who has money and is looking to make it grow , the relationship is reversed , and the banker may become more deferential on their side . Talking with a bank manager also depends on how much time they are willing to spare you . You 'll have to adapt to their availability and timetable , rather than simply managing your money when you want to . This can create tension in your relationship with money . But this relationship is not fixed in stone . Your relationship with money can change thanks to AI , as the drivers of the banking relationship described above need not determine your relationship with money in the first place . With AI , there is no need for a suit or forced formality . There 's no schedule either . You can be more relaxed and forget about constraints . You have a free mind , so you 're likely to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Your tone may be neutral or playful , but this has no consequence in terms of the AI 's decision . With a human , you depend on how they feel . AI assistants feel nothing , they do n't express any emotion . A virtual assistant wo n't judge you . It can help you manage your finances , to be as useful as possible , in a logical way according to an algorithm . However , it 's still necessary to be vigilant . While AI is , in conception , neutral in its responses , being shaped by a human being , it can still acquire bias . It is essential that a trusted player is at the helm . The humanisation of AI is shaped by the humans who create it . Linguists have an important role in choosing words to respond to people 's problems in difficult situations . For example , the contribution of empathy is important . So is humour . The company 's culture , world view and organisational ' raison d ' ? tre ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of AI , while the risks of human bias are also managed . That 's why at Orange , these considerations are at the heart of our AI commitments . Orange Bank 's ambition is to offer a new banking experience by breaking down traditional notions of power . And we believe that AI can play a central role in achieving this . AI can help people change their relationship to money . This change is already being felt thanks to features that are now being deployed by Orange Bank that allow you to talk about money differently . Asking for your balance aloud , getting credit at any time , requesting money and transferring it to your contacts , friends , family and colleagues , simplifies and relaxes your relationship with money . Today , our AI assistant , Djingo now understands nearly 80 per cent of the questions asked in natural language and deals entirely with almost 50 per cent of queries we receive with Orange Bank . This is only set to grow . AI 's role as an intermediary will also help relax the relationship @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ All these elements put together will lead to a gradual change in mentality . Already , a recent survey we conducted on customer attitudes to artificial intelligence found that in France over half of customers said they were ready to use AI to communicate with their bank . While in Spain , the figure was over 70 per cent . Over time , gradually the relationship between customers and their bank will change . And as demand grows and the relationship evolves , at Orange Bank we 're working daily to bring improved services to customers to continue to transform the banking customer experience for the better . |

There are 312 million PC gamers in China . By 2023 , analysts predict that number will reach 354 million , surpassing the total population of the United States and generating an estimated $16 billion in revenue . That alone is greater than the GDP of 90 different countries . But despite having the highest concentration of gamers worldwide , China 's PC gaming scene is often misunderstood or treated as isolated from PC gaming everywhere else . But it 's not . Over 24 percent of Steam users now have their language set to Simplified Chinese and Chinese players are downloading a whopping 40 petabytes of Steam games week after week , more than anywhere else in the world . Steam is n't even supposed to be accessible in China , yet more and more often , Chinese games not localized in English are reaching Steam 's top sellers list , and Chinese gamers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ country . More publishers , like Ubisoft , are looking to conform to China 's strict censorship regulations in hopes of reaching its lucrative market . It 's the dawn of a new era for PC gaming in China , one that is challenging both the historical conventions of what Chinese gamers want and what lengths their government will go to control their access to it . Chinese people just did n't own games back then . The only way to play games , for a lot of people , was to go to LAN cafes . Josh Ye While games have been mostly free to flourish in the West , the State Council of China 's community government went to war against its own videogame industry in June 2000 . Gaming consoles and arcade games were banned outright for fear of how they were warping the minds of China 's younger population . But for some reason that ban did n't include videogames made for PCs . Until mobile phones revolutionized the way most people played games a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gamers . Buying games and hardware was prohibitively expensive , however , so many Chinese people could n't afford to import games legitimately . " Historically there was a lot of piracy of any packaged product and a lot of counterfeit goods , " says Lisa Cosmas Hanson , founder and managing partner of Niko Partners , an expert research firm for the Asian games market . " In order to make money , a company had to deliver the game as a service so that people would pay for the service instead of the software . If they were just paying for the software , they would just take the cheapest price offered to them , which in many cases would be a dollar because it would be pirated . " Below : Here are just a few of the biggest PC games in China , historically . Image 1 of 5 That League of Legends is such a global phenomenon is partly owed to its incredible success in China , which remains its largest demographic with hundreds of millions of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ both in China and around the world , which prompted Tencent to buy its developer Riot Games in 2011 . Image 2 of 5 This side-scrolling beat'em'up MMO was first released in Korea in 2005 , but Tencent brought it to China two years later where it exploded in popularity . Today , Dungeon Fighter Online is one of the highest-grossing and most-played games of all time , with over 600 million players and $11.8 billion in lifetime revenue . Though considerably old , it still has a massive and loyal following in China . Image 3 of 5 Fantasy Westward Journey is a China-based MMO developed by NetEase and released all the way back in 2001 . Across its sequels and multiple mobile spin-offs , Westward Journey boats over 310 million players around the world with China still being its largest audience . Image 4 of 5 Let 's be clear : CrossFire is basically a Counter-Strike clone developed by SmileGate and released in China in 2008 . But CS ca n't even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ million players worldwide ( mostly in China and South Korea ) and an estimated $10.8 billion in revenue , making it one of the highest grossing games of all time . Image 5 of 5 Though not as popular as its mobile port , QQ Speed is a Mario Kart-style racer developed by Tencent that has several million players in China . Originally a browser game , QQ Speed borrows a lot of concepts from MMOs , including social features and group play . " Chinese people just did n't own games back then , " adds Josh Ye , a reporter with the South China Morning Post . " The only way to play games , for a lot of people , was to go to LAN cafes . It made a lot more sense to try out a game and then pay as you go . So Chinese people are more comfortable with that . " Coupled with how rare home computers were , free-to-play online games were an ingenious solution that made PC gaming accessible to all of China while @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " As online games started and games from Korea were launched in China , all of a sudden this market evolved out of nothing , " Hanson explains . " Keep in mind that the total market size generated from gaming in China in 2001 was $100 million and now we 're at $32 billion . That is big growth . " Tencent is a Chinese megacorporation and one of the most valuable tech companies on earth , rivaling Facebook and Google . It rose to dominance on the back of its QQ and WeChat messenger apps , two ubiquitous social media platforms in China . Tencent is also the largest game company in the world , owning stakes in Activision Blizzard , Ubisoft , Paradox Interactive , Grinding Gear Games , Riot Games , Epic , and Miniclip . PC gaming quickly became the dominant way to play games in China and free-to-play online games the favored genre , even though the wealth of China 's urban populations increased significantly in the decade that followed . It 's a trend @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 41 percent of China 's PC games revenue last year . This explosive growth of PC gaming helped cement the dominance of companies like Tencent , which is solely responsible for nearly a third of China 's total games revenue thanks to its PC store WeGame and the popularity of games like League of Legends . By comparison , runner-up NetEase accounts for just one tenth of the pie . It might sound like China is a PC gamer 's paradise . But that 's before you hear about what it takes to release a game in China . The State Council 's ban on console games was just one of the ways China 's communist party sought to control its videogame market . To restrict the flow of information between China and the outside world , the Chinese government has erected a great internet firewall that blocks any content it deems unsuitable . Google searches are altered to remove offensive results and sites like Twitch and Wikipedia are blocked outright . The film Bohemian Rhapsody was heavily censored in China , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ use , and battle with AIDS . With regards to videogames , there are two major obstacles to releasing a game in China : 1 . Prohibition against foreign investment If you 're a foreign online game developer , the first hurdle is China 's prohibition against foreign investment into certain business sectors like telecommunications . That law means foreign companies ca n't operate their own online games in China and must license that game to a Chinese company to operate it instead . It 's why World of Warcraft in China is operated by NetEase and Dota 2 is run by Perfect World . Because these licensed games are operated by separate companies , they often deviate from their original versions ( especially in terms of monetization ) and are sometimes years behind in updates . Chinese PC gamers have long been familiar with the ways their games are altered to conform to censorship regulations . When Blizzard launched World of Warcraft in China , it famously doctored the appearance of its undead Forsaken race to make them look less dead , among many other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that says this game is for 18 and older or this game is for 12 and older , " Hanson explains . " We have the ESRB , and they do n't have that . Games need to be appropriate for all ages . " But the rules that any Chinese developer must abide by are often vague and unevenly enforced . For example , " anything that harms public ethics or China 's culture and traditions " and " anything that violates China 's constitution " are both prohibited in Chinese videogames . When Tencent was unable to secure approval to monetize its mobile version of PlayerUnknown 's Battlegrounds , it re-released PUBG Mobile as the ridiculously patriotic Game for Peace , an awkward PUBG clone that goes to almost absurd lengths to avoid drawing the ire of Chinese censors . Instead of blood , player wounds emit bright flashes of light and killed players joyfully wave goodbye instead of dying . And , seemingly to make Game for Peace less competitive , five players are declared winners instead of just one . Once a foreign @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , it still has to be approved by a regulatory government body called the State Administration of Press and Publication ( SAPP ) . That regulator has recently undergone massive restructuring and reforms in part because of its bitter feud with China 's Ministry of Culture , the fallout of which still hangs over the games industry today . The steps China 's government had to take to finally put an end to it were almost catastrophic for many developers . It 's a bureaucratic nightmare defined as " Kafkaesque " by one publisher I spoke with who said the process felt " endless " and described Chinese censorship laws as unintentional attempts to " murder its own industry . " Before the SAPP took over , two regulatory bodies oversaw the licensing and approval of videogames : The Ministry of Culture ( MOC ) and the State Administration of Press and Publications for Radio , Film , and Television ( SAPPRFT ) . The Chinese government did n't draw clear lines of responsibility for either agency , but the MOC @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ games , while the SAPPRFT approved games prior to release . Naturally , both saw themselves as the primary regulator of videogames and were willing to fight for it -- a war that Blizzard found itself caught in with World of Warcraft 's Chinese version . In the spring of 2009 , after successfully operating World of Warcraft in China for four years , Blizzard sought to terminate its partnership with Chinese company The9 and have World of Warcraft run by NetEase . When Blizzard announced the new licensing deal , both the MOC and SAPPRFT demanded that World of Warcraft be re-approved for operation in China -- even though it was already approved . What followed was nothing short of a disaster : The delay from seeking two separate reapprovals forced World of Warcraft to temporarily suspend service , shutting out tens of millions of fans . And even though the MOC finally reapproved WoW by mid-summer , the SAPPRFT took an unreasonably long time to do the same -- prompting a different government body to try to solve the dispute by issuing an interpretation of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the green light to relaunch World of Warcraft . But when World of Warcraft servers went back online , the SAPPRFT accused NetEase of operating illegally . It was February of 2010 , almost a year later , when the SAPPRFT gave World of Warcraft its approval -- but only after NetEase paid a settlement and issued a public apology , of course . That a Chinese company could find itself trapped in that kind of bureaucratic war is part of the reason why , in April of last year , the Chinese government restructured those regulatory bodies and consolidated regulatory power to one organization . Enter the SAPP , a new regulatory body with clearly defined jurisdictions and a mission to reform China 's videogame censorship process . That might sound like good news for the Chinese games industry , but nothing is ever that simple . Shutting down World of Warcraft for a few months is a minor inconvenience in comparison to the agony that the games industry endured in April to December 2018 . While the SAPP was being formed , the government put a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Freeze saw the Chinese PC games industry shrink 2.1 percent -- the first time the industry has n't grown since 2001 , according to Niko Partners . In September of 2018 , Tencent claimed to have lost $190 billion in market value thanks , in part , to the freeze . But big companies like Tencent had it easiest . Simon Zhu is the founder of the China Indie Game Alliance ( CIGA ) and works closely with many of China 's fledgling indie developers . He tells me that the approval freeze was terrifying for many smaller companies , not that the process was easy to begin with . " Before the freeze it still took a long time , " Zhu says . " You need many materials and you have to wait , and you have to spend money -- not small money , it 's big money . And now if you are waiting for a year , your studio is dead . " For many Chinese developers the wait would have been devastating if not for one mysterious hole in China 's censorship @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ laws Steam is an enigma in China . Despite the great lengths to which the Chinese government has gone to censor and regulate videogames , Steam and most of its games remain accessible to Chinese users . Only community features like forums and adult games are blocked on Steam in China . While Tencent had to recently scrap its mobile version of PlayerUnknown 's Battlegrounds and replace it with Game for Peace , anyone in China can go on Steam and buy Grand Theft Auto 5 . I ask Hanson why Steam remains unblocked : " That 's the 64-million dollar question is n't it ? " She said . " Everyone knows it 's there and they shut down other systems , they lock things regularly as you know . How that 's been continuing ? I do n't know . " Of the nearly half a dozen Chinese games experts I 've asked , none have a certain answer why Steam remains uncensored in China , though they all have their theories . But the stakes are now very high : Steam has become a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hundreds of game developers looking to escape their government 's increasingly strict censorship policies and restructuring . A screenshot of Scroll of Taiwu , one of China 's most popular indie hits . Chinese gamers love the fact that they can play games that have not gone through this approval process , which means they have a lot more variety to them . Lisa Cosmas Hanson During the licensing freeze last year , one game in particular soared to the top of Steam 's best seller list despite not being available in English . Scroll of Taiwu became one of China 's biggest indie hits after selling more than one million copies through Steam . When a reporter from the South China Morning Post asked its creator , Zheng Jie , why he chose to release on Steam , he said , " My team has an urgent need to survive . " But Chinese indies are n't just surviving on Steam , many are thriving . Bloody Spell , Chinese Parents , Bright Memory , the list goes on . " Chinese gamers love @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gone through this approval process , which means they have a lot more variety to them , " Hanson says . " What we used to think was that Chinese gamers would never pay for anything software related , they only wanted free-to-play games and they only wanted to pay into the in-game economy . That has changed in that Steam has allowed for a lot of options , and so they 've taken the opportunity to buy those options . " But that could change soon . Last year , Valve announced it was partnering with Perfect World to create an exclusive version of Steam just for China . The implication is that this version of Steam will abide by government regulations , severely limiting its library of games to only those that have been officially approved by the government . For Iain Garner , who lives in Taiwan and co-founded Asian indie game publisher Another Indie , that 's terrifying . The popular belief is that once Steam China is released the government will block the uncensored version of Steam -- effectively cutting off its 40 million @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not imagine that there 's any way that those two platforms will operate simultaneously , " Garner says . " I do n't see a world in which that could happen . And that means that for a lot of developers and myself included who are relying on China for around 20 percent of all revenue , that 's probably going to disappear . " Valve did not reply to our request for comment about Steam 's future in China . If Steam is eventually blocked , China 's biggest , unfiltered window into western PC games will close and developers will have no choice but to conform to Chinese censorship if they want to survive . Fortunately , according to Hanson , the new reforms put in place by the SAPP are much more explicit and intuitive . The SAPP has also committed to helping guide publishers through the more transparent approval process , which should help Chinese games more easily follow the new rules . But there are still many questions about what lies ahead for China 's games industry , especially now that its @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The defunct SAPPRFT and the MOC used to be under China 's State Council , itself an organization within The National People 's Congress . But the SAPP is now directly under the highest censorship authority in China , the Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China ( CCPPD ) . As Hanson puts it : " That 's pretty high up . That 's higher than it had been before . " And though the criteria for approval is clearer , it 's also stricter . Violence was always a touchy subject and Chinese games frequently compromised by making blood a different color . But the SAPP is prohibiting blood and gore of any kind , even if it 's green . And some rules are still vague , like the gentle suggestion that games should be " historically accurate . " The government 's freeze on approvals has thawed , but only time will tell how rigorously and uniformly the SAPP will enforce censorship , and things are only getting more complex . Last week , Epic Games silently made its Epic Games Store available @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ effectively joining Steam as another mysterious hole through China 's great internet firewall . But for the gamers and developers who have come to rely on Steam as a haven for uncensored games , and for the Chinese PC gaming industry as a whole , the future is uncertain . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'get out of fighting further' involves an intransitive verb 'get' with no NP object, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes an attempt to avoid continuing the fight, which does not align with the defined properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a situation where Dar attempts to avoid further fighting by faking an injury, which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'gaining absolutely nothing out of firing Conte so late' involves the verb 'gaining' with 'nothing' as its object, but it does not involve a causee participating in the event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a result or outcome, which is not characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

SNP- Berwick Rangers- outlier in the league . DUP- Liverpool . Objectionable on every level . Looking forward to the enraged replies.John Foster. , AFC . Red Robben ? Robben to Liverpool makes sense.Taz Chelsea blues This season @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ really loved Conte 's first season at the club , and am proud to say that I went to nearly every game . I saw first-hand how he galvanised the club and the fans in that first season .. and I loved it . But , equally , I also saw the very next season how quickly his style of management and the style of football he asked the players to play caused a huge amount of issues for the club and for the players . How quickly fans forget that horrific and most negative of Chelsea displays against Manchester City away from home with Cesc standing completely still while City passed rings around him . It was appalling , and certainly one of the most humiliating moments I 've had as a Chelsea fan . For me , it was far worse than the 6-0 , because despite having some elite players we played like a non-league side with absolutely no ambition to win the game . It was , quite simply , pathetic . The Conte regime was completely unsustainable , most damningly on a football level @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ manager whose philosophy does not put possession at its heart . So , I was happy that we went out to employ a technocrat who has experience of coaching a modern style of football ; a person who is not a demagogue , and who at heart is a person who simply wants to coach and implement a joyful style of football . He was the antidote to Conte and to me showed that we had learnt from our mistakes . Of course , being Chelsea , we absolutely stuffed up Sarri 's appointment , whilst at the same time gaining absolutely nothing out of firing Conte so late . So , not only was Sarri mandated to completely change Chelsea 's football from the bottom up , he only had 2 weeks before the season started to do it ! That is a ludicrously short amount of time . That , plus the playing squad at his disposal , is probably why very few pundits had Chelsea in the top 4 . The vast majority I saw had us in either 5th or 6th place .... and not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ great going into the season . And I fully expected there to be major hiccups . The first part of the season exceeded my expectations in terms of results and , whilst it clearly was unpolished , I was certainly seeing a big difference to our style of play . The playing out from the back for one was a major advance ( I do love Kepa ! ) . As was our possession play in general . What I was n't seeing was penetration , but this was nothing new -- had everyone forgotten the issues we had on that score in Conte 's last season ? Rome was n't built in a day . So far , nothing surprising . The surprising part was how quick the vitriol hit when we ran into our first real difficulties ... Most stunningly , was people complaining about our style of football .... Had I been taking crazy pills ? Has no one been watching the past couple of years ? To be honest , it seemed like a very lazy stick to be beating the team with when actually @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were getting to grips with the attacking patterns and pace that the football had to be played ( b ) we were making a decent amount of chances but clearly do not have a recognisable goal scorer outside of Hazard ... and sometimes Pedro and ( c ) for once we were trying to play football against the big sides , instead of holding back and trying to counter attack like a small club . Most galling of all , was going to matches and hearing the booing ... especially of Jorginho .. even at the end of the season where we were homing in on 4th spot . Who are these people ? What level are they operating at intellectually ? It 's hard to fathom . But almost equally hard to fathom is how widespread all of the venom was . Both in the media ( often from people who never watch our games ) and then , more disturbingly , on Chelsea fansites and podcasts . It 's like Chelsea fans have collectively taken leave of their senses . What were they expecting ? When @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ our style ? I fully expected this stuff to subside once we made third place . I thought that people would finally recognise what an achievement that is and also see , as I do , what a great base this is for next season given the young players coming back and the preseason that Sarri will have with the players . But no ! The madness continues ! This right in the face of the fact that Liverpool are reaping the dividends of patience and long term planning with a coach playing a progressive style of football . Instead , in the face of the obvious benefits of such patience , many Chelsea fans are now looking to the club to bring in a championship manager who 's done ok , but let 's face it , is far from being an elite level coach ( at least not yet ) . Meanwhile , Juventus are chomping at the bit for our manager , but even this tells many Chelsea fans absolutely nothing . So , I pretty much despair at this point unless I am part @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? ? ) . Perhaps , we as a club just are n't ready to move forward . We want to live in a past of instant success on the back of lavish spending . A past which simply can not exist anymore . Well , if the board react to those fans wishes and fire Sarri , I guess we will deserve all that we get .... Anyway , I did n't wish to up the existing negativity , I just had to get this off my chest in a public forum , as its been eating me up somewhat ... Up the blues ! And here 's to a great win next Wednesday . KTBFFH ! Luke , London , CFC Could Pep do it at Bournemouth ? On the subject of whether Guardiola could do it at a smaller club ( I 'm gon na use Bournemouth for this example ) . I 'd be at least as interested to see if all these players who often state how they 'd ' love to play under Pep ' would want to if their wages @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In my example : Pep has left City to go to Bournemouth to prove he can do it anywhere Jose has taken over at City and is keen to splurge the money on the latest big name player Both Pep and Jose decide they want Harry McGuire Harry has decided to leave Leicester but would he have gone to ... A ) The Cherries on ? 60K a week just because Pep is there but with no guarantee of success B ) Or City on 200K a week to play stale football under Jose but with a pretty solid guarantee of trophies even if they already have Stones and Laporte I reckon he and most footballers would go A , and that is where Pep may come unstuck.Chris Two-legged finals In response to Marc , London : Two-legged finals would be utter sh*te -- you 'd either have to split card allotments equally for both games , which would mean a lot of traveling , or the 2-leg home party would have a massive advantage , because in addition to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the drama . Better would be , you 'd have " suitors " at the start of each seasons from each participating club ( every club playing in the group stage could make a bid for it ) , let the competition go on until after quarter finals would stand ( that is , each cup would have 8 teams in ) , then draw the final from those still standing . So , for example , this season CL , if any group stage participant had made a bit for it , you 'd have London , Manchester ( 2x ) , Liverpool , Barcelona , Porto , Amsterdam , Torino and draw one randomly.JJ ... Quick thanks to everyone writing in these last 2 weeks . I thought the mailbox would be quieter than Man Utd 's end of season lap of honour . Lots of talk about choosing the venues for the champions league and europa league finals did get me wondering how do they actually do it . Turns out it 's not that laborious : - 1 ) national associations @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bid on the upcoming UEFA bid process 2 ) UEFA opens the bidding process for national associations to submit their proposals . For example next years final has already been decided and it is actually to be held at the Ataturk Stadium in Turkey . They previously hosted it in 2005 , you might have heard about that one 3 ) the current bid process is underway for the 2020/21 final . As at 15th February the Allianz arena in Munich , Germany and the St Petersburg Stadium in St Petersburg Russia are the 2 options , the decision is happening in September this year . For the Europa League final it 's Tbilisi in Georgia or Sevilla in Spain , decision to be made on 29th May so watch out for that one How UEFA decide is trickier to find out about but you would think criteria such as transport , accommodation , any excessive discriminatory issues SHOULD be a priority , e.g. being gay is illegal , being Armenian is dangerous . It does therefore seem strange that Baku was chosen . Trying to get @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ find is that Azerbaijan have been working with UEFA for many years now and hosted the U17 women 's World Cup in 2012 and the U17s world championship ( men ) in 2016 . The sponsorship money is coming from SOCAR which is the energy company of Azerbaijan , they sponsor Atletico Madrid , and the current president who succeeded his father in 2003 is a huge football fan and wants to turn Azerbaijan into a footballing nation . As such , and as this is also a goal of UEFA to turn all nations into footballing ones , is probably how they won the rights having hosted previous tournaments and built up good relationships . I do think it 's important that football is democratised and all countries have an equal chance of winning and hosting . The issue with the cost of airline tickets and hotel rooms is a disgrace but it is unfortunately how markets work these days and I am not sure how it could be fixed . Unfortunately if you can fly to Ireland for ? 1 you can also have your eyes taken @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ final for those not aware Kiev residents actually started a Facebook page giving up couches and rooms mostly for free to visiting fans . It would be good if UEFA could manage this each year . That way the money goes to local people rather than corporations who are trying to fleece you and it would mean that having finals in far flung places can actually do some good for local communities . For the record I am still unemployed and so researching your questions on F365 gives me something to do so keep asking ! ! SIDE NOTE -- my apologies to those Spurs fans offended by my Plucky Little Spurs mail . I was trying to make the point that Liverpool were getting hammered for spending money whilst Spurs were being lauded because they did n't spend money and was trying to show that both decisions were choices and that Spurs are not a small team , they do have money but are choosing ( to a degree ) not to spend it.Ian ( Bamber Gascoigne ... remember him ! ? ! ? ) Williams LFC @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on the ' Most expensive XI'have majority of their players still playing for them , unless they 've ballsed up/been relegated somewhere .

And that brings this MBM to a close . Commiserations to Hearts - who put so much into this final , but whose seven-year wait for silverware goes on - and to their boss Craig Levein , still to win a trophy in his 38-year professional career . So close but yet so far . But congratulations to Celtic , who simply ca n't stop winning trophies : that 's nine major Scottish competitions in a row now ... an unprecedented treble Treble ! It 's one heck of an achievement , and one that 'll no doubt be toasted with the odd treble nippy sweetie in the east end of Glasgow tonight . Sl ? inte ! A quadruple treble next year ? You would n't bet against it , the way they 've been carrying on of late . Thanks for reading this MBM ; enjoy the rest of your weekend . Here 's a very dejected Craig Levein , whose pauses for so long between sentences that viewers just tuning in to BBC Scotland could be forgiven for thinking they 've @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " It was competitive . We tried as hard as we could to win the match . Unfortunately we did n't manage to do that , either for ourselves or for our supporters . We played the same way as we played at Celtic Park last week . And it did work , we frustrated Celtic for long periods and broke quickly when we regained possession . But we 're playing a good side and we did lose moments of concentration . You could count them on one hand , but that 's what cost us . " A treble treble , though ! Lennon 's right , we 'll not be seeing this sort of thing again any time soon . Next on Celtic 's wish-list : the completion of a nine-in-a-row title sequence for the second time in the club 's long and storied history . No biggie . The prize-giving ceremony . It 's pleasingly quick . No faffing around , as Hearts go up to collect their runners-up medals , poor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and lift their cup . Captain Scott Brown shares the job with Mikael Lustig ... some reward for the defender , whose long header upfield it was that sent Odsonne Edouard clean through for the winner ! The cup 's hoisted by the entire team - yay , yay , yay for each member - but particularly big cheers for the two-goal hero Edouard , the unused 16-year-old sub Karamoko Dembele , and of course the manager Neil Lennon , who teases the crowd by holding back for a beat before lifting the famous trophy into the Glasgow sky ! And here 's the caretaker manager Neil Lennon . " It 's emotional . It 's probably the most emotional I 've ever felt at this club . You 'll never see this again . It 's all about them . I hadf to whip them a bit at half-time because we did n't turn up in the first half . And then ... we said if Hearts score , we 'd come again . And we needed Hearts to score to get our energy levels up . And @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hearts would n't let us off easy , and it was a very good final . Edouard is a superstar now . That 's nine trophies out of nine . It is remarkable . They have done the club so proud . " So will he get the job full time ? " It 's a bit too early to start talking about that , it 's not about me . " Now a word with Celtic 's two-goal match-winning hero Odsonne Edouard ! " I am very happy to score today . But more important is the team . " Was he nervous when taking the penalty ? " No . I am not nervous . I am never nervous ! When I take the penalty , I know I score the penalty ! It is a very good atmosphere today . With the fans , I win the treble one more time , and I am very happy for this . " Neil Lennon crumples to the floor , on the verge of tears , before gathering himself and racing down the touchline in celebration . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , in a full and frank exchange of views , but it all seems to quieten down quickly enough . Brown then talks to BBC Scotland : " It 's phenomenal . Hearts gave us a great game . But our quality , yet again ! For the fans it 's phenomenal . And that 's people saying we 've had a poor season ! We 've done the treble yet again , the third one in a row , and now we push on next season . If we turn up , we win the game . " Half a chance for Hickey to hit one from the edge of the box . But he hesitates , is closed down , and the whistle goes ! Celtic have won the 2019 Scottish Cup ! It 's their third Scottish Cup in a row ... their ninth domestic trophy in a row ... and along with the league and League Cup , it means they 've won the treble Treble ! 90 min +4 : Ikpeazu , to the right of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ get a shot away . Celtic clear . Hearts come back at them . Hickey curls in from the right and Berra wins a header , but in looking for the top right of the goal , can only find the top right of the stand . 90 min +2:Hearts have thrown everyone forward . Mulraney whips in high from the right . Berra goes up with Bain at the far post , and clumps the keeper upside the head . Bain needs no second invitation : down he goes for treatment , and the clock ticks on in Celtic 's favour . 90 min : Celtic play the corner short but give up possession quickly . Hearts hoick the ball upfield , but lose it in the midfield . A throw for Celtic , which becomes a big production , but who can blame them ? There will be five added minutes . Can Hearts salvage their Scottish Cup dream ? 88 min : Hearts are throwing everything at this , desperation having kicked in since going behind . Ikpeazu is shoved over by Brown , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ free kick leads to a game of head tennis , but Celtic eventually clear and Sinclair zips down the left , cutting inside and sending a low shot that 's deflected out for a corner . 86 min : Mulreaney curls a delicious hanging cross in from the left . Ikpeazu rises on the penalty spot but he 's crowded out of it by three Celtic defenders and ca n't connect . The ball sails out harmlessly for a goal kick . 85 min : The free kick , just to the right of the Celtic box , is whipped in . Berra sends an unconvincing header goalwards . There 's no real danger , but Bain takes no chances and tips over . Nothing comes of the resulting set piece , though . But this match might not be going to extra time ! Out of nothing , Edouard is sent clear down the middle ! A long Lustig header is n't cleared by Berra , who hesitates fatally . The ball flies through to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the keeper and into the net from the edge of the box ! Out of absolutely nothing ! Edouard whips the penalty into the bottom left . Zlamal guessed correctly , and got a good hand to the ball , but did n't keep it out . He probably should have done better , though Edourard will argue that he got enough power on his kick anyway . Whatever : Celtic have drawn level in short order ! 61 min : Edouard bursts into the Celtic box on the left ! Zlamal comes out rashly , and takes the striker out with a slide tackle ! The referee points at the spot . Zlamal is then booked for wasting time as Edouard waits to take the spot kick . 57 min : Celtic have a job on their hands now . Hearts have won their last three Scottish Cup finals . And only one team since 2004 has lost a Scottish Cup final after scoring first . On the plus side @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the Hoops were the beneficiaries . Brown dribbles into the Hearts box from the right and pulls back for Edouard , who ca n't connect . The ball deflects off Rogic and harmlessly through to Zlamal . 55 min : That was a fine goal , a mixture of sassy and scrappy . Hickey 's pass in from the left to Djoum , as he burst through a couple of Celtic players , was exquisite . Djoum did so well to make himself some space for a shot , even if what resulted was n't too great . But Clare 's sense of what was around him was magnificent , and Edwards forced his opportunity home with great feeling . The Hearts faithful are giving it plenty . They 're not groaning now ! Hickey , just 16 , bursts in from the left . He lays off to Djoum , who drops a shoulder to the left of the D. A shanked shot ends up with Clare on the penalty spot . Clare is surrounded , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Edwards slams home from ten yards ! Hampden erupts ! 48 min : This is gloriously open . It 's as though both managers have released the handbrake at half-time , telling their players to go for it . Mulraney makes good down the left and crosses ; with three Hearts men in the middle , Hayes does very well to win the header and clear . 47 min : Hearts go up the other end . Some more pinball , and for a second it looks as though the ball will find its way to Clare , alone in an absurd amount of space on the edge of the Celtic box . Celtic are able to clear , though . Here come the teams again ! Celtic are sent out early , forced to wait until Hearts deign to turn up . Neither manager has made a half-time change . The Jambos get the second half underway , but Celtic are soon enough on the attack . Hayes crosses from the left . The ball nearly finds Edouard six yards out , but Souttar has it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to do with it , though , facing his own goal . He 's lucky to see his eventual hack away pinball off Rogic and out for a goal kick . The whistle goes for half time . Neither goalkeeper has had any serious work to do . Hearts will be a lot happier with this state of affairs than Celtic . Neil Lennon stomps off down the tunnel , perhaps with a view to delivering a full and frank team-talk . Craig Levein will presumably ask his troops for more of the same ; their gameplan is working well . 44 min : And then Smith makes himself busy down the right , earning a corner . From the set piece , Smith earns a throw , which is flung into the mixer . The danger to Celtic , such as it is , ends when Berra shapes to shoot but slips , allowing the ball to be blootered clear . 40 min : A minute 's applause by the Hearts fans in tribute to fan Alex Currie , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ watching his son playing football . A lovely tribute . Incidentally , Celtic are wearing 5 and 9 on their shorts , in memory of departed legends Billy McNeill and Stevie Chalmers , who wore those numbers in the 1967 European Cup final . 38 min : Hickey continues to patrol the left flank in a progressive manner . He nearly releases Mulraney down the wing , but the pass does n't quite come off . He 's looked scarily accomplished going forward for such a young player . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'took the drama out of booking for theatre' does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'the drama' is the object of 'took', and 'out of booking for theatre' describes the removal of drama from the act of booking, not a causative action on a causee.

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('a vile father-of-nine and teacher') + V1 ('was talked') + NP object ('out of') + VP2[-ing] predicate ('raping his adopted daughter'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the action of talking prevented the subject from raping his adopted daughter. The verb 'talked' falls under the category of means to achieve a goal by verbal persuasion, and the NP object is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate with 'I' as the NP subject, 'talk' as V1, 'myself' as the NP object (a reflexive pronoun coreferential with the subject), and 'going out' as the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the subject is preventing themselves from going out by means of talking. This aligns with the atypical types of NP object allowed in the construction, as seen in example (6a).

A woman who broke her back during a ' holiday of a lifetime ' has described how the Universal Credit system left her feeling like ' just a piece of dirt ' . Mary-Lou Gregoire had waited years for her dream trip to the Arctic Circle to see killer whales and the Northern Lights , but an accident on a tugboat left her with seven months of ' excruciating pain ' before doctors eventually realised she had broken her spine . The Eastbourne resident had successful surgery in October , 2016 but her injuries left her with nerve damage in her legs and mobility issues . She left her job at a Christian ministry about a year later . Unable to work because of her debilitating condition , Mary-Lou , 53 , was granted standard allowance Universal Credit -- but to her shock she was denied additional payments because assessors claimed there were ' no restrictions ' to prevent her working @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ six months at a time , she said . She is now in limbo , awaiting a date for a tribunal which she hopes will reverse the ruling -- about 11 months after applying . Mary Lou , of Pevensey Road , said : " When I went on Universal Credit I was met with a system that has made me feel like I am just a piece of dirt . " I am in the loop and find it a very awful loop to be in . " Mary-Lou 's trip to Norway in late 2015 came as an early 50th birthday present . " For me it was something I wanted to do for a long time , " she said . " I was out on a tugboat and the water was a bit choppy . We hit a wave and I remember being in excruciating pain - but my broken back was undiagnosed for seven months . I am really lucky not to be in a wheelchair . " She said the initial process was relatively smooth but hit @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . She described the process as a ' tick-box ' , which gave her a ' zero ' score which did not recognise she had limited or no capability to work . When asked how she put her shopping away , Mary-Lou said she told the assessor she managed -- but it might take her all afternoon .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It also does not exhibit either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it uses 'out of' in a different context, indicating a reason or cause rather than the specific construction in question.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'keep the hard-Left out of Downing Street' involves 'out of' followed by a noun phrase ('Downing Street'), not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

Jeremy Corbyn deepened Labour 's Brexit woes last night as he said a second referendum was ' some way off ' . Speaking in Dublin , he resisted pressure to begin campaigning for a public vote . He said the only way to break the deadlock would be a general election or a second referendum after negotiating a softer Brexit deal . And Mr Corbyn would not say definitively that remaining in the EU would be on the ballot paper in a public vote . He said : ' We do n't back a rerun of 2016 . That happened . That is gone . If Parliament comes to an agreement , then it 's reasonable , and if Parliament wishes it , there should be a public vote on it but that is some way off .

She said expelling Mr Campbell was ' daft and insensitive ' . Yesterday Baroness Chakrabarti , the shadow attorney general , revealed Mr Campbell 's expulsion was under review .

A LAW student who spun a web of lies in order to get out of a speeding ticket , has been spared jail ' in exceptional circumstances ' . Vanessa Cooke , of Combe Road in Stonesfield , near Witney , was found guilty of perverting the course of justice when her car was seen speeding at 53mph in a 30mph zone . The mother-of-four was found to have falsely put forward her uncle as the driver of the car at the time it was caught speeding . During the trial , prosecutors at Oxford Crown Court told jurors that the 41 year old had submitted a false ' section 172 ' form , nominating her uncle as the driver . She was also found to have lied , to support her claim , about her son having been injured at school , claiming her uncle was rushing to pick him up when it happened .

It 's safe to say many people would n't be here today without the help of volunteers -- from the first responders giving up their weekends to save those caught up in road traffic accidents , to those giving up their time to board Britain 's lifeboats , saving people stranded at sea . These are only just a few examples of course . There are millions of people volunteering with hundreds of different charities across the UK , all united by a common goal : to help others and make the world we live in a better place . To coincide with Volunteers ' Week ( which runs from 1-7 June ) , three people have shared ' thank you ' letters to the volunteers who helped them through difficult times -- and if their words do n't restore your faith in humanity , nothing will . Danielle RushMandy Francis with her daughter Katie and their dog Badger . Dear Gordon Emery and Michael Howie , It 's been nearly three years since you rescued my daughter Katie , our collie dog Badger and I from the rising waters at Black Rock Sands near Porthmadog in Wales . It was a beautiful sunny day and we 'd been walking along the sandbanks and paddling in the shallow water . But when we turned back , we realised the water had come in around us and cut us off from the shore . We thought we 'd be able to wade back , but we were thigh-high in water after only a couple of steps . The water was so much deeper than we thought and the current was strong . We could feel @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ soon as we stepped in . We used Katie 's phone to called the Coastguard . She thought I was over-reacting at first , but we were a considerable distance out from the shore and the water was rising fast . I remember feeling frightened and panicking about the situation we found ourselves in . Your lifeboat arrived after about 15 minutes , during which time the patch of sand we were standing on got smaller and smaller . By the time I got in the boat , I was ankle deep . I felt so stupid -- we had walked on that beach so many times and never realised it was possible to become cut off like that . You were both so kind and reassuring . Over that same summer , you saved many more people just like us , who did n't realise the dangers of the sandbanks and incoming tide . If we had n't called when we did , things could have worked out very differently . Without you , I do n't think we would be here . We owe @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that the RNLI saved our lives that day , and we will be eternally grateful to all those involved in our rescue . With heartfelt thanks , Mandy Francis , 48 from Maentwrog , Gwynedd , Wales . Empire Fighting Chance works at street level , out of boxing gyms in the heart of deprived communities , using non-contact boxing and intensive personal support to challenge and inspire young people to realise their potential . Here is one man 's letter to the volunteers who helped him pursue his dream . I was a young boy trying to find my way in the world and stay out of trouble when I joined the Empire Boxing Gym in Bristol . I had a job fitting air-conditioning units but I dreamed of being a professional boxer . I started training three nights a week and eventually took part in 50 amateur fights . Each time , one of you drove me to and from the fight venue , waited around while I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I boxed . I was old enough to notice the incredible number of unpaid hours you put in , and understand you all had families , jobs , bills to be paid too . I also noticed you gave your time to anyone , whether they looked like they had a shot at a professional career or had turned up for the first time to try something new . You opened my eyes on how to do things right . " Be clever " you said . You showed me how to fight without taking too many punches , how to live healthily without booming and busting between fights . You told me to get a trade as a Plan B and keep the day job to begin with . Happily , my day job became coaching for you . As the charity Empire Fighting Chance was launched , I became your first employee , coaching other young people and trying to be the role model you had been for me . I left five years later to pursue my dream as a professional boxer and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this with personal training , scheduling in clients when I was n't training to make things sustainable . My whole career -- with a job I absolutely love -- is because of the grounding you gave me . I know how to dodge the pitfalls of the profession because of what you taught me . I realised my dream because of the time you gave me . Thank you . Dan Sarkozi , 30 from Bristol . Forward Assist helps UK military veterans in their transition from soldier to citizen , providing a variety of projects to reduce social isolation , loneliness and activities that improve physical and mental health . SuppliedBob Wilson To the staff and volunteers at Forward Assist , I am writing to tell you how much your support and the chance to volunteer for you has changed my life . I left school in 1964 with no qualifications . Unable to find employment I joined the Army as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was involved in seven tours , all in Northern Ireland . In 1983 I left service but my transition to ' civvy street ' proved to be the most difficult challenge I 've ever faced . I was on an emotional rollercoaster , constantly living with depression and anxiety , haunted by the things I 'd seen in Northern Ireland . At the time I did n't know these symptoms were post traumatic stress disorder ( PTSD ) . I struggled with suicidal thoughts and barely left my home in the two years before I discovered your team . Forward Assist was -- and still is -- my lifeline . Meeting other veterans and sharing experiences , as well as some serious one-to-one therapy , helped me turn a corner . As did becoming a volunteer for you . With your help and support I trained as a coffee barista and now proudly run and maintain your coffee truck , serving our own specially roasted Salute blend at events all over the North East . I talk to other veterans about my experiences , their experiences @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I 'm also a trusted driver for you , ferrying people and items wherever you need them to be . I come in every day , often even on weekends . Because volunteering for you gives me a sense of purpose I 've not known in decades . I 'm helping others . But volunteering makes mefeel happy and connected to the world too . It 's a far cry from all those years shut away with only the horrors in my mind for company . I 'm no spring chicken but volunteering for you means my future is -- at last -- bright and full of promise . |

2 Jun 2019 DOWN ? ON ? THE ? FARM : Carolyn and Simon Gill , who farm 160 acres across five locations The concept of a financial adviser and a statistician running a farm is definitely worthy of further investigation . Wendy Short set out to discover how Simon and Carolyn Gill are harnessing these skills on their beef and sheep holding on Bowes Moor . BOWES Cross Farm is set in 30 acres of land , but Simon and Carolyn Gills have bought additional fields since they moved to the holding in 2011 . They now farm about 160 acres , spread over five locations . Some 200 ewes are lambed each year including 40 to 50 pure Beltex ; a breed which the couple hold in high regard . The commercial ewes are mainly Beltex and Texel cross Mule , with a Beltex sire used across the flock . Lambing takes place in two batches , with the first group lambing in the buildings in early March . Among the later group , the hoggs and ewes with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mothering on , while those with twins give birth outdoors . Finished lambs are sold at Barnard Castle and Kirkby Stephen auction marts . Nobody could expect Mr Gill to have a " magic bullet " which will improve the profitability of farming enterprises , and he laments the fact that the price of inputs has risen proportionately higher , compared to the returns on offer for farm produce . " The cost of concentrate feed has sky-rocketed and the price of straw has been inflated partly because power stations have joined the market looking for a source of fuel , " says Mr Gill . " It is not easy to make money from farming nowadays , but looking after livestock is not just about the money ; farming is in my genes , and my wife feels the same way . " As with any financial enterprise , it is important to measure performance and we have an electronic identification for the sheep , which not only helps with record-keeping , but also allows us to make more informed decisions about which animals to breed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a very high quality camera set-up in the lambing shed which allows us to monitor the ewes from several points in the house . It has saved us a lot of time and effort this season and the images are so sharp that we can actually see the lambs ' feet when they appear . " The cattle herd is made up of approximately 35 British Limousin and British Blue suckler cows , all of which are put to a British Limousin bull . The calves are marketed as stores at Barnard Castle Auction Mart . The Gills thoroughly researched the local trade before they chose their breeds of sheep and cattle . " We went to the markets and made a note of the type of stock that was in the highest demand and which made the best prices , " says Mr Gill . " Beltex-sired lambs are very popular with buyers and we like the ewes ; they are docile , milky and have good maternal qualities . Limousin and Blue calves are also sought-after in this region . " Simon Gill was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ His family moved to North Yorkshire when he was a teenager and so began a career path which intertwined finance management and farming ; an unusual combination but one which has given him great satisfaction . " My father was a doctor and also a farmer , so the idea of having two diverse careers was not unusual to me , " says Mr Gill . " In my case , I always wanted to farm but my head ruled my heart and I ended up following in his footsteps and pursuing a second career . I took a degree in accountancy and moved down to Coventry to work as an accountant . " But it was not long before Mr Gill 's thoughts turned back to farming and to what he considered his home patch in the north of England . It was at this point that he heard that the owner of what is now Acorn Dairy , at Archdeacon Newton , near Darlington , was looking for a herdsperson . " Gordon Tweddle had just taken on the tenancy of the farm and I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " After a few years I set up as a self-employed farm worker and found work mainly as a relief milker . This experience taught me that I wanted to farm in my own right and I moved to a small dairy unit near Northallerton , which was part-owned and part-rented . " Unfortunately , milk quotas were introduced within a short period and that signalled the end of the venture . I decided that it was not the right time for a new entrant to make a living out of dairying that prompted me to take a job as a trainee financial adviser for a merchant bank and eventually to work in an insurance company . " In 1994 , Mr Gill decided that he would set up his own company offering financial advice and Barnard Castle was an obvious choice for its location . " I have always liked Barnard Castle and a suitable building came up for sale in the town just at the stage when I was looking to establish a base . " It is a very rural area , which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ which offers access to numerous other places . " At the beginning , about 50 per cent of my customers were farmers , but over the years I added clients who worked in a range of industries and I specialised in providing advice on pensions and investments . Over time , I brought in two directors and we had a couple of full-time staff , but I retired from the business in 2014 . " Mr Gill 's wife , Carolyn , was brought up on a Yorkshire farm and enjoyed a career as a university lecturer in statistics . She takes up the story . " I was one of two daughters and in those days , there was never a discussion about our taking over the farm because of our gender . The situation might be very different today and I always wanted to farm in my own right , " she says . " I had given up my career to look after elderly relatives and we were living in Eggleston when a field at Marwood came up for sale and I bought @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to keep some livestock , but after a very short time we felt that it would be much more convenient to have our animals on the doorstep and that led to our move to Bowes Cross . " It has not really turned out as we had imagined , because so much of the surrounding land is owned by estates , but all of our fields are within a five-mile radius . " We also have a holiday cottage and some cattle sheds nearby but we are unsure about the property 's future , because it could be affected by the A66 upgrade . " She adds : " Whatever the case , it is unlikely that the farm will expand in the future , because we do not want to take on more livestock than we can manage by ourselves . " |

My comments seven days ago on the country 's march towards a cashless society , marshalled by our profit-obsessed banks , brought some wonderful responses from readers . To all of those who took the trouble to write in , a big thank you . Judging by what you say , the rush towards a transactional world devoid of cash is well on its way . Of course , it has nothing to do with consumers falling out of love with cash and everything to do with the banks ' relentless closure of branches , the stripping out of telling machines , and the resulting shortage of cash in local communities . The rush towards a cashless society is ' everything to do with ' the banks ' relentless closure of branches , the stripping out of telling machines , and the resulting shortage of cash in local communities ' In a nutshell , the banks would like to do away with cash , which is expensive to provide because telling machines need @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be replaced with cards , and then - once they have us all over a barrel - they will start charging us for processing all our payments . One reader on holiday in Devon kindly sent me a picture of a sign outside the Dartmouth Castle Tea Rooms that read : ' There are NO banks in Dartmouth . We have no change . Please use your card as much as possible . ' Despite Dartmouth 's popularity as a holiday resort , Lloyds closed its branch two years ago while NatWest shut last year . For the owners of the cafe , their only way of getting hold of loose change is to travel 15 miles to Kingsbridge . Crazy . Meanwhile , 70 miles further west in Pentewan , Cornwall , Miles Avery says the lack of cash in the coastal resort - following the removal of the village 's only cash machine - is affecting his business . Miles runs the water sports shop Ocean Sports and does not accept card payments below ? 10 because of the higher processing fees he would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ MONEY CAN HELP Although he used to lose a couple of sales a year as a result of his minimum card spend , he has seen a sharp rise in the number of card-only customers coming in wanting to spend less than a tenner . Although many top up their purchases to ? 10 , Miles is worried he could lose business as cash gets scarcer . More pertinently , he says that the very moment cash goes , the banks and card processing companies will have created the monopoly they have long craved , putting them in a position to increase charges for both consumers and small businesses like his . He concludes : ' In truth , while the banks will increase their profit , society will be a lot poorer for the loss of cash . ' Spot on . The Mail on Sunday has been a longstanding critic of the high interest rates levied on student loans - especially since they apply as soon as youngsters start studying . So it is heartening to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not fallen on deaf ears . The Augar report into educational funding , published last week , recommends that the rate be cut from its current 6.3 per cent ( 3 per cent plus 3.3 per cent inflation as measured by the Retail Prices Index ) to RPI only while youngsters are still studying . Too right . It is one of many sound recommendations made by Philip Augar though the report is not without nasties , for example proposing an extension of the loan payback period from 30 to 40 years . But will his proposals be acted upon ? Probably not , given the precarious state of the Government , the Prime Minister 's endorsement of the report - does anyone listen to her any more ? - and this administration 's abysmal failure to act on anything . TODAY is the fifth anniversary of the birth of investment fund Woodford Equity Income . Although most birthdays are joyous occasions , there will no bunting put out for this fund , which sadly has done @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it through thick and thin . Indeed , as you read this article , its unit price is hurtling back to where it started on June 2 , 2014 - namely ? 1 . Five years of going nowhere . Whichever way you analyse the numbers - and whatever excuses manager Neil Woodford comes up with for the fund 's static ( or should I say moribund ) performance - it is a sorrowful state of affairs . No cash from Mr Woodford . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks a V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate structure. Instead, 'pull out of fighting Wilder' seems to involve 'pull out of' as a phrasal verb followed by a gerund, not the specific construction in question. Additionally, there is no clear movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as defined for the transitive out of -ing construction.

Former world heavyweight champion David Haye says Anthony Joshua needs " something in his camp that he did n't have " Renowned boxing author Thomas Hauser said Anthony Joshua could have walked down an American street without being recognised prior to his US debut against underdog Andy Ruiz Jr . On Sunday , that may no longer be the case . His stunning defeat - where time appeared to freeze for the Briton at Madison Square Garden - will be played on loop by sports broadcasters here and at home for the next 24 hours and beyond . Joshua 's team sat slumped , dejected , as he fielded questions in the bowels of the arena after the fight . Their man had lost his titles . More so , he had lost his " invincibility " according to former world heavyweight champion David Haye . So will this be a time for change for Joshua ? And could Ruiz - who believed he was destined for life as a gangster - now become the division 's " golden goose " ? Media playback is not supported on this device @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ after ' minor setback ' During fight week , Joshua told Carl Frampton that after beating Wladimir Klitschko in a topsy-turvy 2017 bout , he had informed trainer Rob McCracken he would " give up " if he needed to be in fights which played out like a rollercoaster again . Not only has he now had such a contest , but he has had one which will rear its head decades from now whenever boxing shocks or wider sporting upsets are discussed . There can either be a view that this was unfortunate and team Joshua hold firm , or , more likely , there will be change . " This is the biggest shock I have ever seen in my whole days in boxing , " Frampton told BBC Radio 5 Live . " There are big questions about AJ 's engine now . It will be interesting to see if there any changes made to his team because it is something that would not surprise me . " Before the seventh and final round , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ McCracken : " Why am I feeling like this ? " The 29-year-old had been adamant this fight 's training camp was the one where 10 years in the sport had all come together . He said lessons were learned from being unwell in the run-up to his last victory and an emphasis had been placed on quality over quantity . His training regime even included work with Navy Seals , who told him how they dealt with being shot in the hope it would help him stay calm if knocked down . And knocked down he was , four times in all . Those ringside could see all was not well from an early stage as fatigue shone through . " If Anthony Joshua is healthy and fit as he says he is , then there is something wrong , " said Haye . " He needs something in his camp that he did n't have . " The question is what ? Joshua has a nutritionist , a psychologist , a strength and conditioning trainer , the experience of McCracken , physios , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ runs a lot for a heavyweight , so an engine should be a given . Love or loathe Joshua , for any fighter to be in a ring , exposed and aware they are drowning , is nothing short of lonely . Could it have been an inner fatigue caused by his countless commercial obligations ? He said this week that trying to promote boxing and his US debut " takes so much work " . Perhaps also , McCracken gave something away this week when he said some opponents proposed before Ruiz would not have kept Joshua switched on . His words point to Joshua maybe needing a certain challenge to remain focused . The contracted rematch will undoubtedly focus the mind . Lennox Lewis has admitted he paid for complacency in defeat to Hasim Rahman in 2001 . Seven months later Lewis ruthlessly took back his belts . Joshua has already defended his team and blamed himself . At least if this defeat was indeed down to the mind switching off , history shows it can be corrected . What may be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . He has been a world champion for over three years , after all . " Anthony Joshua 's invincibility has gone now and he is now just a mere mortal , " Haye told BBC Radio 5 Live . " Now , fighters know they have just got to stick in there against him and keep throwing body shots . " Haye makes a valid point . Fans can be harsh in their criticism and the human being underneath the fighter 's facade can be vulnerable . When George Foreman lost for the first time to Muhammad Ali in the ' Rumble in the Jungle ' of 1974 , he later admitted he lost something as a man that night . And Eddie Hearn said after this shock : " Everyone will remember it forever . This will eat him up bad . Some fighters lose and fight back , some never come back the same . " Promoter Lou di Bella , who worked with WBC champion Deontay Wilder for his draw with Tyson Fury , tweeted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The real test of Anthony Joshua will be how he bounces back from this . Boxing is unpredictable and unforgiving ; it 's what makes it so compelling . " There will be soul searching but Joshua has the team around him and , crucially , the mental wherewithal to search in a measured way . His team may get tweaked , his routine adjusted and his methods changed - but a man often dubbed " a sponge " by McCracken stands every chance of soaking up the trauma and responding . Let 's not forget he has come from brushes with the law to Olympic gold and world champion . There is much to his character , so surely he will show it . While pieces like this will analyse the why and the how , we can not discount the fact that sometimes it only takes one punch . Joshua never got close to recovering from the first knockdown . It could simply be his senses were scrambled , and so began an almost uncontrollable downward @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ any sport , sometimes it just is n't your day . Ruiz , however , will never have a better one . On the Monday night before the bout , he spoke to the media in a pair of baggy jeans , old trainers , an ill-fitting jacket and often stood hands in his pockets , almost thankful to be asked questions . His name was n't even printed on some fight tickets and the majority of the questions Joshua answered in fight week were about other boxers . Words can barely do justice to frame the momentous upset this was . Ruiz thanked his father , who took him to a gym aged six simply to burn off energy , such was his hyperactive nature . As years passed , he found trouble , shaved his head , joined gangs and said it was his father who would find him and force him back into the gym . He battled his weight , fought older children as a result of his size and despite considering giving up , continued to almost reach the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Roach ploughed seven years into him early in his professional career underlined his talent , not least a fast style typically seen in Mexicans in lower weight divisions . And as well as the belts , the 268lbs heavyweight takes home several million dollars and will get more if the rematch is signed . " Mom , I love you , " he said at his news conference . " Our lives are going to change , we do n't have to struggle no more . " A repeat bout looks a certainty but in boxing , as tonight has shown , count on nothing . " Eddie Hearn is a great promoter , all week he said one loss for Anthony Joshua changes everything , changes the landscape , " said 5 Live analyst Steve Bunce . " We could have Luis Ortiz pull out of fighting Wilder and we could have Ruiz versus Wilder for all the world heavyweight titles in September .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('Guy told...he tried to talk Delta out of signing on'). It involves an animate NP subject ('Guy') and an NP object ('Delta') that functions as a causee, inducing a prevention interpretation (preventing Delta from signing on). The verb 'talk' fits the classification of verbs that appear in the V1 slot, specifically by means of verbal persuasion. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Networks of tiny sensors known as ' smart dust ' are on the cusp of reinventing the Internet of Things . These devices will unlock unprecedented levels of data collection , but their development unearths important security questions Networks of microelectromechanical sensors , or smart dust , are set to revolutionise the way the Internet of Things functions , transforming a whole range of sectors as a result The future of computing is microscopic . For decades , technology has followed the same pattern : as speed and capability increase , cost and size shrink . It can be seen in the transformation from the mainframes of the 1960s that filled entire rooms to the bulky PCs that became ubiquitous in the 1990s to the paper-thin laptops , tablets and smartphones we use today . " Based on that trend , we should be arriving very soon at millimetre-scale computing systems , " said David Blaauw , a professor of electrical engineering and computer sciences at the University of Michigan , who has spent decades working to miniaturise computing systems @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the term ' smart dust ' to describe these millimetre-sized devices . Pister and his colleagues at the University of California , Berkeley , aimed to create a network of sensors made up of tiny wireless computer systems called ' motes ' . Acting as microscopic eyes , ears and arms , these motes could rove around the world collecting all kinds of data : visual , thermal , chemical and biological . In theory , smart dust could revolutionise industries by reaching places scientists never thought possible . Internet of Things 2.0 Since Pister first presented the idea of smart dust , the concept of building a distributed network of wireless microelectromechanical systems ( MEMS ) has only gained steam . Although it may sound like a radical concept , smart dust is the natural next step for today 's Internet of Things ( IoT ) . The IoT market has quickly established itself as an essential component of the modern world . Devices vary wildly , from consumer technologies like smart thermostats to products designed for the corporate world , such as small sensors that monitor oil @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that smart dust technology will trickle down into consumers ' homes before it has penetrated sectors such as industrial monitoring and medicine In 2017 there were already 27 billion connected IoT devices , but by 2030 , research firm IHS Markit expects the number to more than quadruple to 125 billion devices . Dust Networks , a company founded by Pister that is now owned by US semiconductor firm Analog Devices , has successfully deployed one-centimetre scale sensors in several commercial markets , including oil refineries , Pister told The New Economy : " That technology is still selling and being deployed today . " These sensors have already transformed the way many sectors collect data , but with more advanced and even smaller technology , they could go much further . Not only could smart dust dive into oil wells ; it could also sit on the wings of a butterfly to monitor migration patterns or be deployed inside the human body to oversee the recovery process of broken bones or damaged organs . A number of uses are already being considered : tiny motes of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to monitor the needs of the plants , from determining watering times to pest control . Elsewhere , smart dust could track bees to find out where they encounter various chemicals that threaten their populations . In medicine , embedded defibrillators and pacemakers already carry out health-monitoring processes , but smart dust could take that to the next level . Researchers at the University of California , Berkeley , were the first to propose what they called ' neural dust ' -- millimetre-sized sensors that could be implanted in the body and used to stimulate nerves and muscles , as well as to monitor the activity of different organs . In 2016 , they successfully built the first of such sensors , measuring three millimetres long , one millimetre wide and one millimetre across . One day , Blaauw hopes millimetre-scale devices like neural dust could not only take measurements , but also take action . For instance , a project his team is working on involves implanting tiny sensors into tumours to monitor the effectiveness of treatments . " This is very advantageous over blindly treating the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ road , it would be great if those little sensors , those little systems , could also themselves provide treatment by emitting certain hormones or medications or other kinds of bio-simulations . " The construction industry has previously demonstrated success with larger smart-dust-like sensors . For instance , when workers laid the concrete for the basement of One World Trade Centre in New York City , Bill Ray , a research director at the consulting firm Gartner , said they threw sensors directly into the concrete . Throughout construction , the sensors enabled workers to monitor what was going on inside a block of concrete , ensuring that it set properly . By the time the batteries in the sensors died , their job was done . Although these sensors were not millimetre-sized smart dust , Ray told The New Economy that it gives the industry a look at just how varied the different applications of smart dust could be . In the hands of researchers , smart dust could open the door to innumerable groundbreaking discoveries . " There is actually a lot of information out there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ small enough , " Blaauw said . " With millimetre-scale systems , we can actually illuminate knowledge into regions of our environment that we just do n't have access to today . " Weighing up the benefits It is unlikely that smart dust technology will trickle down into consumers ' homes before it has penetrated sectors such as industrial monitoring and medicine , where motes could more easily be developed at larger scales . But that has n't stopped researchers from dreaming up creative uses for consumer-ready smart dust applications . For instance , Pister envisions a wireless device that he could attach to his fingernails , allowing him to type or sketch anywhere , on the spot . " When we can get down to the one millimetre-scale devices commercially , there are all sorts of fun applications , " he said . Engineering industry magazine IEEE Spectrum reported details of how smart dust could be embedded into packaged foods so consumers could test whether it was still safe to eat by waving their smartphone over the product . This idea , like many smart dust @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enough for motes to be disposed of after a single use . Cost , therefore , will be a critical factor holding the smart dust technology back from widespread deployment . " Cost is always a barrier , " Blaauw said . " Definitely right now , these kinds of things , in general , are boutique . They are expensive . " The hope is that , after a chicken-and-egg dance , a company that can tolerate the high initial cost of the technology will drive production up , thus bringing down costs for others . But companies will only take the leap to a new technology if they can identify a strong return on investment , and currently silicon prices are far too expensive for use in disposable MEMS sensors . IEEE Spectrum calculated that to make one sensor at a cost of $0.01 , silicon prices would have to drop by a fifth . " With a new technology , this is always a tricky part : to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ production to volumes where the cost can be low . Then that can springboard many other applications that can then take advantage of that previous investment , " Blaauw said . Researchers are tackling the cost issue by creating sensors made out of different materials , including paper and plastic . For sensors designed to be put in the body , planted in the ground or used in food packaging , the potential waste caused by the disposal of hundreds or thousands of smart dust motes becomes another issue . To address both of these concerns , researchers at the University of Pennsylvania are working with biodegradable materials , such as those used in dissolvable surgical sutures . Gathering dust Before smart dust can radically change the way businesses around the world operate , researchers must first create microsystems that work . Over the past decade , significant progress has been made in shrinking the size of the computing system itself . Blaauw and his team at the University of Michigan have created the Michigan Micro Mote , the world 's smallest computer at just two millimetres wide @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the group encountered was reducing the size of the battery . While shrinking the size of microchips is relatively easy , battery size is dictated by power consumption , and current motes eat up too much power for microscopic batteries . For this reason , many researchers are focused on creating millimetre-scale systems that rely on very low power ; when on standby , the Michigan Micro Mote runs on about a million times less power than the average smartphone . Electronics manufacturer Ambiq Micro , which Blaauw co-founded , claims to be the world leader in energy-efficient semiconductor design . The company makes ultra-low-power solutions for IoT devices , wearables and other technologies . Researchers are also considering different ways to power smart dust . For instance , the Michigan Micro Mote was able to harvest energy from ambient light via a **32;2028;TOOLONG solar panel . Energy harvesting allows sensors to grab power from a number of external sources , including ambient light , heat or motion . Through ambient backscatter , devices can also take energy from existing radio frequency signals or Wi-Fi . Matrix Industries @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The company has already designed a watch that is powered by its wearer 's body heat , and it is also working on systems that capture energy from daily fluctuations in air temperatures . Sensors used in the body , meanwhile , can be powered by ultrasound technology , which is optimal for hospital use . The researchers behind neural dust , which does not use any batteries , utilise ultrasound vibrations to both power their sensors and read out measurements . " Ultrasound is much more efficient when you are targeting devices that are on the millimetre scale or smaller and that are embedded deep in the body , " electrical engineering and computer sciences graduate Dongjin Seo said in a statement at the time of the announcement . " You can get a lot of power into it and a lot more efficient transfer of energy and communication when using ultrasound as opposed to electromagnetic waves , which has been the go-to method for wirelessly transmitting power to miniature implants . " No silver bullet Because of these roadblocks , smart dust could still be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . According to Gartner 's Hype Cycle , it will take more than 10 years for smart dust to achieve mainstream use . On the graph 's curve , it is at the very beginning of its life cycle , slightly ahead of flying autonomous vehicles . But the arrival of smart dust will not occur with a big bang . " There are lots of things that will be smart and dust-like on the way to that final destination , " Ray said . Even once the technical kinks are straightened out , the barriers to deploying smart dust on a wider scale could continue to expand . Like any new technological development , alongside its vast opportunities , smart dust brings sweeping new concerns about privacy and ethics . There has already been an outcry over how easily smart home devices can be hacked , and the commercialisation of smart dust would only increase the scale of data being collected by IoT-related products . Whether it is Google , Amazon or a construction company you have never heard of , the thought of large institutions placing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they choose brings up a raft of questions around privacy and security : how is that data stored , and by whom ? Will consumers be able to opt out of having their data collected ? Experts agree that as long as the issue of security is addressed from the start of the development cycle , it will not be difficult to ensure smart dust is protected from hackers . " Security will always be a battle , but even at a sub-millimetre scale there is no reason that dust motes ca n't have banking-level encryption and authentication on their communications , " Pister said . But the trouble with the gradual evolution of new technologies like smart dust is that researchers tend to focus first on making the technology function . Security only becomes a concern when the devices seep into the commercial and consumer markets -- and even then , typically after a security scandal occurs . For researchers using smart dust technology to study bees or butterflies , it is easy to see why security is of little concern , according to Blaauw . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is what I think we 're going to see in the next decade or so , then security will have to be added in , " he said . Nevertheless , the real questions around the security of smart dust are part of a bigger story around data collection and privacy . " We can make smart dust secure ; technically making it secure is not the problem , " Ray said . " The issue is , how do we decide what level of security we like ? " For example , Facebook is a secure system -- that , however , has not stopped the social media giant from becoming embroiled in one scandal after another in recent years . These scandals are not about technical security , but about Facebook 's role in sharing data without its users ' knowledge or consent . As Ray explained : " The issue ... is not the level of security ; it 's the decisions about how to manage that data . " The IoT industry and social media firms have so far demonstrated how not to approach @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a long time for business leaders and scientists to tease out the answers to these concerns , it is important that privacy and security are part of the conversation from the start . Once a security framework is established , smart dust can start to act as the eyes and ears of businesses and organisations . Medical professionals could soon streamline diagnostics and treatments with the help of internal sensors , while a sprinkling of smart dust could allow manufacturers to monitor their inventory from the factory to the shelf . The arrival of networks of minuscule sensors will allow unprecedented levels of data collection . Companies must act before the dust settles on this new era . Industrial monitoring A number of industrial sectors have already installed networks of small sensors to monitor machinery across a plant or factory . Aside from oil refineries , chemical plants and mines are places where the sensor networks that are already installed could be upgraded to smart dust as soon as the technology is available . As well as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( such as packaged-food makers or breweries ) could use smart dust to boost inventory control and enhance security by wirelessly monitoring their products . Medicine Smart dust has the potential to vastly improve medical treatments and health monitoring by shedding light on what is happening deep inside the body . But even on the surface of the skin , millimetre-scale systems could revolutionise medicine . A process as simple as fitting a prosthetic limb could be improved by using smart dust : by scattering the tiny sensors around the area where the prostheses will attach , smart dust can look out for areas of increased temperature , showing where the stress points will be . Scientific research Countless scientific research projects could be kick-started by the emergence of smart dust . In theory , scientists could send a swarm of smart dust to Mars -- or even further into space -- to collect data on new interstellar frontiers . Back on Earth , smart dust could be used to monitor the conditions of a wildfire or give early warning of a natural disaster like a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ scale , the microscopic sensors could measure -- and control -- energy or water usage and costs in homes or businesses . |

ALAN McGee meets me in the foyer of Jury 's Inn in Glasgow at the decidedly unrock ' n ' roll hour of nine in the morning . " It 's only because I 've got to jump on a train , " he protests when I bring it up . " If I was going to do an interview it would normally two or three . " Even so , it 's the morning after the night before and the night before was a hometown gig . And yet here he is , bright-eyed and bushy-bearded , and looking good on it . Of course , the days of booze and drugs are long behind him , but it 's more than that . The one-time head of Creation records , the man who managed the Mary Chain , gave us Primal Scream 's Screamadelica and discovered Oasis up the road in King Tut 's , says he 's had " some sort of rebirth " in the last couple of years . " I got ill about two-and-a-half years ago , and I got colitis and I changed my diet away from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of meds as well . I 'm in a really good place , really calm . " Some people will find that rather disappointing . McGee 's USP was always his big-mouthed self-belief ( some unkind souls might call it arrogance ) . He was loud , he was opinionated , but he was always amusing . He still is . Calm or not , there 's enough of the old Alan McGee in the new one . At one point he tells me Oasis were as big as the Beatles . Not quite the case perhaps , but the huckster in him ca n't help himself . And the fact is Oasis were -- are -- huge . And as a result , McGee became famous by association . It led him to be courted by New Labour and co-opted onto the Creative Industries Task Force ( " being part of the British government was pretty psychedelic , " he says now ) . That was then , though . And yet , more than two decades later and now in his late fifties , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nostalgia of course . The day before we meet was the 25th anniversary of the release of the band 's first single Supersonic . And so , the tour , An Evening with Alan McGee , which will run to nearly 40 shows , is a chance for fans to hear about his gilded , gutter life -- the bands , the drugs , the parties -- from the horse 's mouth . He is also prepping for a movie of his life to be made by Danny Boyle and Irvine Welsh . Ewen Bremner will play McGee . And he is still in the music business . He does a radio show for fun and he 's managing a portfolio of acts who you will know : The Happy Mondays , Cast , the Bluetones , Glasvegas . " The groups I manage are all quite old , " he admits . " Bluetones are in their forties . The Mondays in their fifties . They 're all calm . Back in the day they were all crazy . " As was he , of course . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Wales . What I wonder does Glasgow mean to him now ? " I do n't know really . I 've got a lot of people that I really love here , like my sisters and Glasvegas and a lot of good pals . " Glasgow informed the way that I reacted to the world , Teddy . I was total factory fodder . If I had n't done it in music , I was never going to do it . I 'd have been like that bus driver . " He nods his head to the bus he can see out of the window driving down Jamaica Street . " Or probably unemployed by now because I 'm 58 . Maybe building sites and stuff like that . I was never going anywhere , man . " He returns to the original question . " What does Glasgow mean ? It definitely informed me as a person , I suppose . To be emotionally hardy . Resilient . Totally resilient . " Well yes . But then he had to be . The last @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Creation Stories in 2013 , he talked about the violence he suffered at the hands of his abusive father . No wonder , perhaps , that he says the city has too many ghosts for him these days . He ca n't imagine living here again . " But I 'm not anti-Glasgow , " he adds . " I love the spirit of Glasgow and I 've still got the Primal Scream connection , so Glasgow runs through my life in a big way and I think I 'm probably typical of Glasgow people in some ways . I do n't know how to give in . " He certainly has retained that bolshy Weegie chutzpah that made him so quotable back in the day . At one point in our conversation he mentions in passing that Oasis were as big as the Beatles . Not quite true , I think , but the fact that he could even say it with a straight face is a reminder of just how big the Gallagher brothers were . Still are for many . Britpop was really just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ casual sexism and sense of superiority of the original ( can you tell I was more of a trip-hop fan ? ) But what lingers now , all these years on , is how optimistic it was . " I think the world has changed , " McGee agrees . " I 've not been back to America since Trump got in . Brexit 's the worst . The sad thing is I manage the Happy Mondays and we 're huge in all these mad towns like Sunderland and Hartlepool and you go to these towns and there 's nothing going on . And for those people to be bitter about London and wanting to go ... " He sticks two fingers into the air , " ... to the establishment . I think that 's why it happened . " McGee 's own story is itself a two-fingered salute , you could argue . He grew up in a Glasgow that was " so drab " and a family that was dysfunctional . Music was one of the few bright spots . He loved glam and punk @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I was a kid was definitely a way out , " he says . " Everybody was dreaming of being a pop star . " In 1980 he left for London , where he lived in squats for a time . Within five years , at the age of 23 , he was managing the Jesus and Mary Chain . His career in music had begun . He grew out of wanting to be a musician quite early . " It was more unique trying to run a record label when you 're 22 , 23 . And it 's cooler as well . " Cool does n't pay the rent , of course , and the 1980s were rather hand to mouth for Creation . But that was OK , he says . " When things were bad , I used to look back and think , ' Yeah , but it 's better than what I was doing . I was literally making tea and getting bullied on a building site when I was 16 . " As bad as it was it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as bad as what I was doing back in the day when I had no f****** future . " What was the worst selling record on Creation ? " There have been a few . The first record we put out , The Legend , was a particularly shocking record . The only thing I can say is I thought it was good at the time . I do n't think it even sold 700 copies back in the day . " But you can learn from failure . " I 've always learned more from defeat than I have from success , because you do n't learn anything from success . Everybody just goes , ' You 're f****** great . ' And that 's quite addictive as well . " Ah yes . McGee famously led as dissolute and rock ' n ' roll lifestyle as his charges . And that was fun . Until it was n't . But what else was it , I wonder ? He once said , I remind him , that , " The first time I took Ecstasy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ That suggests at the height of his success he was still dealing with the damage of childhood . Was he simply self-medicating ? " I was a street addict with street drugs up to February 94 when I got clean . And then I had a relapse on booze 2002/2003 , but then got clean again . " In 95 they put me on Valium and anti-depressants , and I was on them for years and I only got off them in December . And that 's one of the reasons I 've changed . I 've got rid of everything . " Inevitably , we talk about Oasis . The ongoing feud between Noel and Liam is something of a soap opera these days . Everyone asks McGee if Oasis will ever reform . Maybe the better question is , should they ? " Personally , I would like it , but I do n't think it 's going to happen anytime soon . Everyone asks me the question , ' Is the feud real ? ' It 's so real you 've got @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ offence . Not so much Liam , but Noel . " I do n't have a favourite . People are always going , ' Liam or Noel ? ' I do n't have a favourite . I like them both . Over the years I 've been closer to Noel , but I like Liam a lot . I DJed for Liam last year . They 're both good guys . " F*** the band . It would be lovely if they got on as family . That would be nice . " The music business is much changed now . Is it harder now for bands like Oasis to break through ? Is the industry more middle class ? " The music business was always middle class , man , but the bands used to be working class . The bands are n't working class anymore . Maybe in Grime , but in the indie thing it 's all middle-class kids . It 's been like that for a long time . Maybe 20 years . " I think the business is only middle @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the music game . Working class kids can give it about five years maximum and then they 've got to go and get a career . Do you not think so ? " And maybe it does n't matter anymore . Music is not at the centre of the culture that it once was . " Music 's a side issue now . People are more interested in their phone . " What about him ? He 's got money . He has homes in Wales and London . That sounds suspiciously middle class . Fess up , Alan , what is your guilty middle-class pleasure ? Are you a Dobbies Garden centre kind of guy ? An Antiques Roadshow watcher ? " I 'm not that . What do I do that 's quite old ? I do n't go to nightclubs . I do n't go to pubs . I 'm officially boring . But then I 'm always doing music . I 'm always in clubs with bands . " Actually , he 's not sure he is even middle class . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it .

" Even so , it 's the morning after the night before and the night before was a hometown gig . And yet here he is , bright-eyed and bushy-bearded , and looking good on it . Of course , the days of booze and drugs are long behind him , but it 's more than that . The one-time head of Creation records , the man who managed the Mary Chain , gave us Primal Scream 's Screamadelica and discovered Oasis up the road in King Tut 's , says he 's had " some sort of rebirth " in the last couple of years . " I got ill about two-and-a-half years ago , and I got colitis and I changed my diet away from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of meds as well . I 'm in a really good place , really calm . " Some people will find that rather disappointing . McGee 's USP was always his big-mouthed self-belief ( some unkind souls might call it arrogance ) . He was loud , he was opinionated , but he was always amusing . He still is . Calm or not , there 's enough of the old Alan McGee in the new one . At one point he tells me Oasis were as big as the Beatles . Not quite the case perhaps , but the huckster in him ca n't help himself . And the fact is Oasis were -- are -- huge . And as a result , McGee became famous by association . It led him to be courted by New Labour and co-opted onto the Creative Industries Task Force ( " being part of the British government was pretty psychedelic , " he says now ) . That was then , though . And yet , more than two decades later and now in his late fifties , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nostalgia of course . The day before we meet was the 25th anniversary of the release of the band 's first single Supersonic . And so , the tour , An Evening with Alan McGee , which will run to nearly 40 shows , is a chance for fans to hear about his gilded , gutter life -- the bands , the drugs , the parties -- from the horse 's mouth . He is also prepping for a movie of his life to be made by Danny Boyle and Irvine Welsh . Ewen Bremner will play McGee . And he is still in the music business . He does a radio show for fun and he 's managing a portfolio of acts who you will know : The Happy Mondays , Cast , the Bluetones , Glasvegas . " The groups I manage are all quite old , " he admits . " Bluetones are in their forties . The Mondays in their fifties . They 're all calm . Back in the day they were all crazy . " As was he , of course . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Wales . What I wonder does Glasgow mean to him now ? " I do n't know really . I 've got a lot of people that I really love here , like my sisters and Glasvegas and a lot of good pals . " Glasgow informed the way that I reacted to the world , Teddy . I was total factory fodder . If I had n't done it in music , I was never going to do it . I 'd have been like that bus driver . " He nods his head to the bus he can see out of the window driving down Jamaica Street . " Or probably unemployed by now because I 'm 58 . Maybe building sites and stuff like that . I was never going anywhere , man . " He returns to the original question . " What does Glasgow mean ? It definitely informed me as a person , I suppose . To be emotionally hardy . Resilient . Totally resilient . " Well yes . But then he had to be . The last @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Creation Stories in 2013 , he talked about the violence he suffered at the hands of his abusive father . No wonder , perhaps , that he says the city has too many ghosts for him these days . He ca n't imagine living here again . " But I 'm not anti-Glasgow , " he adds . " I love the spirit of Glasgow and I 've still got the Primal Scream connection , so Glasgow runs through my life in a big way and I think I 'm probably typical of Glasgow people in some ways . I do n't know how to give in . " He certainly has retained that bolshy Weegie chutzpah that made him so quotable back in the day . At one point in our conversation he mentions in passing that Oasis were as big as the Beatles . Not quite true , I think , but the fact that he could even say it with a straight face is a reminder of just how big the Gallagher brothers were . Still are for many . Britpop was really just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ casual sexism and sense of superiority of the original ( can you tell I was more of a trip-hop fan ? ) But what lingers now , all these years on , is how optimistic it was . " I think the world has changed , " McGee agrees . " I 've not been back to America since Trump got in . Brexit 's the worst . The sad thing is I manage the Happy Mondays and we 're huge in all these mad towns like Sunderland and Hartlepool and you go to these towns and there 's nothing going on . And for those people to be bitter about London and wanting to go ... " He sticks two fingers into the air , " ... to the establishment . I think that 's why it happened . " McGee 's own story is itself a two-fingered salute , you could argue . He grew up in a Glasgow that was " so drab " and a family that was dysfunctional . Music was one of the few bright spots . He loved glam and punk @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I was a kid was definitely a way out , " he says . " Everybody was dreaming of being a pop star . " In 1980 he left for London , where he lived in squats for a time . Within five years , at the age of 23 , he was managing the Jesus and Mary Chain . His career in music had begun . He grew out of wanting to be a musician quite early . " It was more unique trying to run a record label when you 're 22 , 23 . And it 's cooler as well . " Cool does n't pay the rent , of course , and the 1980s were rather hand to mouth for Creation . But that was OK , he says . " When things were bad , I used to look back and think , ' Yeah , but it 's better than what I was doing . I was literally making tea and getting bullied on a building site when I was 16 . " As bad as it was it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as bad as what I was doing back in the day when I had no f****** future . " What was the worst selling record on Creation ? " There have been a few . The first record we put out , The Legend , was a particularly shocking record . The only thing I can say is I thought it was good at the time . I do n't think it even sold 700 copies back in the day . " But you can learn from failure . " I 've always learned more from defeat than I have from success , because you do n't learn anything from success . Everybody just goes , ' You 're f****** great . ' And that 's quite addictive as well . " Ah yes . McGee famously led as dissolute and rock ' n ' roll lifestyle as his charges . And that was fun . Until it was n't . But what else was it , I wonder ? He once said , I remind him , that , " The first time I took Ecstasy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ That suggests at the height of his success he was still dealing with the damage of childhood . Was he simply self-medicating ? " I was a street addict with street drugs up to February 94 when I got clean . And then I had a relapse on booze 2002/2003 , but then got clean again . " In 95 they put me on Valium and anti-depressants , and I was on them for years and I only got off them in December . And that 's one of the reasons I 've changed . I 've got rid of everything . " Inevitably , we talk about Oasis . The ongoing feud between Noel and Liam is something of a soap opera these days . Everyone asks McGee if Oasis will ever reform . Maybe the better question is , should they ? " Personally , I would like it , but I do n't think it 's going to happen anytime soon . Everyone asks me the question , ' Is the feud real ? ' It 's so real you 've got @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ offence . Not so much Liam , but Noel . " I do n't have a favourite . People are always going , ' Liam or Noel ? ' I do n't have a favourite . I like them both . Over the years I 've been closer to Noel , but I like Liam a lot . I DJed for Liam last year . They 're both good guys . " F*** the band . It would be lovely if they got on as family . That would be nice . " The music business is much changed now . Is it harder now for bands like Oasis to break through ? Is the industry more middle class ? " The music business was always middle class , man , but the bands used to be working class . The bands are n't working class anymore . Maybe in Grime , but in the indie thing it 's all middle-class kids . It 's been like that for a long time . Maybe 20 years . " I think the business is only middle @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the music game . Working class kids can give it about five years maximum and then they 've got to go and get a career .

" What about him ? He 's got money . He has homes in Wales and London . That sounds suspiciously middle class . Fess up , Alan , what is your guilty middle-class pleasure ?

The sentence 'Usually people are fighting their way out of something.' does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction because it lacks a VP2[-ing] predicate and does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of something' is too vague and does not specify an action or event from which the subject is being moved or prevented.

It takes a certain type of person to step into a boxing ring and risk one 's own life , and that of an opponent , for the sake of entertainment . It is no wonder then that the sport is full of remarkable characters - and many have gone on to find infamy . Often their life stories are full of brutality and tragedy , with their careers inside the ring mirroring the personal turmoil outside of it . These are the boxers who will be remembered among the most notorious of all . The unmistakable Mike Tyson 's life has been filled with controversy , in and out of the ring Venezuelan-born Valero perhaps should have never boxed . He was involved in a motorbike accident in 2002 and was n't wearing a helmet ; he fractured his skull and needed surgery to remove a blood clot . As a result , he struggled to gain a license in the US but fought 27 times overall and won every single one by knockout , becoming WBA super featherweight champion and holding the WBC lightweight title . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In September 2009 , he was arrested for assaulting his sister and mother in a family feud in Venezuela but his mother later insisted there was no violence involved . Six months later he was accused of assault again , by his wife . She needed hospital treatment for a damaged lung but , despite being treated for similar injuries before , later changed her tune to say she had fallen on stairs . Upon visiting her , Valero threatened the medics and his temper was so wild , he was ordered by a Venezuelan court to enter rehab and attend anger-management classes . A month later , his wife was found stabbed to death and Valero was arrested , where he reportedly admitted to the murder . A day later , he was found hanged in his prison cell . ' I asked the authorities not to let him out . He needed a lot of help . He was very bad in the head , ' his manager Jose Castillo told reporters . ' But they let him out . They were very permissive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the middle of this tragedy . ' Edwin Valero ( left ) lands a punch on Antonio DeMarco during his win in February 2010 . The Venezuelan was an aggressive fighter and became a super featherweight world champion - but he was arrested for the murder of his wife and later killed himself while in prison At the age of 20 , Charles ' Sonny ' Liston was sent to prison for five-and-a-half years at the Missouri State Penitentiary for armed robbery . He endured a tough upbringing - the 24th of 25 children in a household so poor that he was sent to work at the age of eight . He claimed not to know what year he was born while his father , Liston said , only ever gave him a beating . It was behind bars that he was introduced to boxing , with Reverend Alois Stevens suggesting he entered the ring for a sparring session with heavyweight Thurman Wilson . It lasted two rounds . ' Get me out of this ring , ' Wilson is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ kill me ! ' . Sonny Liston overcame a tough childhood to leave a big mark on heavyweight boxing history Liston turned professional in 1953 and went on to have a remarkable career , becoming heavyweight champion of the world in 1962 with a first-round knockout of Floyd Patterson , a feat he repeated a year later . His career was punctuated by run-ins with police . In 1956 , he reacted to being stopped on the street by punching a policeman and stealing his gun , for which he served nine months inside . But he made it back out , and made it back to the ring . Most famously he was beaten by Cassius Clay ( Muhammad Ali ) in 1964 . They had a rematch a year later and Ali knocked him out in the first round . Liston 's death , in December 1970 , is shrouded in mystery . He was reportedly discovered near a balloon with heroin in it , and his arm covered in needle marks . Yet he apparently had a fear of needles and in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ son of the mafia hit-man who killed him . Liston lands a heavy right hand on the jaw of Muhammad Ali - then Cassius Clay - in 1965 He was a brutal puncher but his own KO by Ali gave boxing one of its most famous pictures ' I was Mike Tyson before Mike Tyson came along , ' Duran wrote in his autobiography . ' Fighters would take one look at me and crap in their pants . " El Diablo " , they called me : " The Devil " . ' Duran was a brutal lightweight , arguably the best and most dangerous in boxing 's history , and moved up to welterweight , light middleweight and middleweight , winning titles in each . Duran loved fighting . He did n't retire until he was 50 years old , in 2002 . He fought a total of 119 times , winning 103 with 70 coming via a knockout . His most famous fights were his three against Sugar Ray Leonard . Duran won the first in Canada in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rematch later that year renowned in boxing history as the ' no mas ' bout . The match was ended in the final moments of the eighth because Duran apparently said ' no mas ' to referee Octavio Meyran - which means ' no more ' in Spanish . Duran insisted he never said he wanted to quit and was taunted by Leonard post fight . ' I made him quit ' , Leonard said . ' To make Roberto Duran quit , was better than knocking him out . ' Duran later said he quit because he was struggling with stomach cramps , but even his manager rejected that and said it was because he was losing the fight so dramatically . Duran lost the decider in 1989 . Roberto Duran ( right ) cracks the jaw of Iran Barkley during a fight in Atlantic City in 1989 His fighting style was ultra-aggressive and he earned the nickname ' The Devil ' He had famous fights against Marvin Hagler ( above ) , Sugar Ray Leonard and Tommy Hearns His aggression , his speed and his power left opponents scared of Tyson before they even entered the ring - look at his fight with Michael Spinks in 1988 . Yet his nickname ' The Baddest Man on the Planet ' was n't just because of how powerful he was in the ring . Tyson infamously bit part of Evander Holyfield 's ear off in the third round of their 1997 rematch . He was disqualified , having already been deducted two points for biting Holyfield 's other ear . Tyson claimed his action was a retaliation to Holyfield repeatedly headbutting him without being sanctioned . Away from boxing , Tyson was sent to prison in 1992 for six years after being found guilty of rape . He served three years and was released in March @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ prison . It was during his time in prison that Tyson discovered a way to own a tiger . He explained on Joe Rogan 's podcast in January : ' So I 'm in prison , I 'm talking to my car dealer at the time and he has some cars that belong to a mutual friend , and he 's discussing , " If he does n't pay for these cars , I 'm going to sell these cars to somebody and get some horses . " ' " I said , " What , you can get horses ? And trade horses in for cars ? " Because I had a lot of cars , I 'd probably get some horses too . And he said , " Yeah man , you can get cougars , lions , tigers ... " I said , " You do ? ! Can you get me some tigers ? " ' And I 'm a young guy .

They contained gypsum , a chemical which , when combined with sweat or moisture , forms plaster that is used to make casts . At a hearing , Margarito insisted he did not know what was in his wraps and it had been an error by his trainer , Javier Capetillo . Later that year , the LA Times said stains on Margarito 's wraps were similar to ones in his fight prior to Mosley , where he beat Miguel Cotto .

But outside of the ropes Mayweather 's life is not as clean his fight history and he has fallen on the wrong side of the law many times . In 2002 , he received a six-month suspended sentence for domestic violence and two years later was ordered to undergo counselling for ' impulse control ' after two counts of misdemeanour battery against two women . In 2005 , he was given a 90-day suspended sentence for hitting and kicking a bouncer . In 2012 , Mayweather went to prison for attacking Josie Harris , the mother of his three children . He was released that August . Mayweather did not have a straightforward upbringing . His father was sent to prison in 1992 for drug trafficking while his mother was a heroin addict . ' Boxing is easy but life has never been easy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I had a father who was a hustler and a mother who was on drugs . I was the man in the house from 16 . That 's just the way it was .

Carter was sent to prison in 1967 for a triple murder at a bar in New Jersey but always fiercely protested his innocence . The case caught the attention of Bob Dylan , who wrote his 1975 song ' Hurricane ' about Carter . He was freed in 1976 for nine months before returning behind bars at a retrial .

He won IBF and WBO super flyweight titles between 1994 and 1998 , unified the WBA and WBO bantamweight titles between 1998 and 2000 and in 2002 , claimed the IBF featherweight title . His most famous rivalry was with Danny Romero - whose father had once trained both boxers . But his boxing career - and life - was one blighted by addiction . In October 1990 , he was banned for three years for testing positive for cocaine . In 2003 , Tapia spent six months in rehab after collapsing at home and saying he had become addicted to prescription pills .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks a verb in the V1 slot that fits the semantic classifications for the construction, and there is no VP2[-ing] predicate that would allow for a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'walked out of Downing Street' is a simple prepositional phrase indicating movement, not part of the transitive out of -ing construction.

But the Labour leader had offered a meeting outside the official engagements of the state visit , the president revealed . Trump said he did ' not know him , never met him , never spoke to him ' but turned down the meeting because he said Mr Corbyn was ' somewhat of a negative force ' . He said : ' He wanted to meet today or tomorrow and I decided I would not do that . ' I think he is , from where I come from , somewhat of a negative force . ' I think the people should look to do things correctly as opposed to criticize . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I like and respect people who get things done - so I decided not to meet . ' A Labour spokesman confirmed Corbyn had offered to meet . He said : ' Jeremy Corbyn proposed a meeting with Donald Trump during the president 's visit . ' Jeremy is ready to engage with the president on a range of issues , including the climate emergency , threats to peace and the refugee crisis . ' He told the outgoing UK leader : ' Prime Minister May , it 's been a true honor , I have greatly enjoyed working with you , you are a tremendous professional and a person that loves your country dearly . ' Trump also claimed that he 's beloved in the UK , where there were protests taking place that were timed to his visit . Jeremy Corbyn , the leader of Britain 's largest opposition party , Labour , was participating in the Tuesday protest , after boycotting the queen 's state dinner for Trump on Monday evening . The U.S. president 's route on Tuesday from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ May did not take him past the protest , however , leading him to surmise at the news conference that reports on the demonstration were exaggerated . ' I did n't see the protesters , until a little while ago . It was a very small group of people , put in for political reasons . So it was fake news , ' he claimed . The evening prior , the president said he did n't see protesters on his way to Buckingham Palace . ' So a lot of it 's fake news , ' he claimed . ' It was tremendous spirit and love . It was great love . ' Corbyn and London Mayor Sadiq Khan were critical of Trump on the eve of his visit , and the U.S. president smacked them right back . Trump said Khan is a bad mayor . ' He 's done a poor job . Crime is up . A lot of problems . ' And I do n't think he should be criticizing a representative of the United States that can do so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . ' We talked about it before : He should be positive , not negative . He 's a negative force , not a positive force . And if you look at what he said , he hurts the people of this great country . ' The American president revealed that Corbyn wanted to meet while he was in the UK , and he had the White House tell him no thanks . He says he ' never spoke to him ' and does n't know the Labour leader . ' I think that he is , where I come from , somewhat of a negative force , ' the president commented . ' I really do n't like critics as much as I like and respect people who get things done . So I decided not to meet . ' Earlier on Tuesday , the president he wants to finalize a trade deal with the U.K. before May leaves office on Friday . May resigned last month as prime minister but delayed her departure until after the conclusion of the U.S. president 's state visit @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ timing is , but stick around , let 's do this deal , ' he told May at the start of a business roundtable at St. James 's Palace . At the presser May told a UK reporter who asked if she 'd do that , ' nice try , ' and confirmed her timeline for exiting office had not shifted . ' I 'm a woman of my word , ' she said , reaffirming her plans to step down imminently . Both leaders hailed the special relationship between the U.S and the UK as they prepared to commemorate the 75th anniversary of D-Day on Wednesday in Portsmouth . ' As with our predecessors when we have faced threats to our security of our citizens and our allies we have stood together and acted together , ' May declared at her final presser with a foreign leader before the end of her tenure . Even so , Trump suggested in an interview prior to the trip that he could cut of intelligence sharing with the UK , over its refusal to put restrictions on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and claims it is a national security threat . He clarified Tuesday that the Five Eyes relationship remains intact , and he does not plan to change the terms . ' We 're gon na have absolutely an agreement on Huawei and everything else . We have an incredible intelligence relationship , and we will be able to work out any differences , ' he said . ' We did discuss it . I see absolutely no limitations . We 've never had limitations .

But Trump said Tuesday in London that their chemistry was better than it appeared . Trump said they 'd developed an ' outstanding ' relationship over the last two years . ' I very much appreciate the relationship we 've had . It 's been outstanding . And I guess some people know that , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ know it , ' he said . ' But it 's been , really , a very good relationship and I appreciate it very much .

He said that 's what they would discussing during the working portion of his visit in officials-only meetings at No. 10 . ' I think we 'll have a very , very substantial trade deal , ' he said . ' And I think that this something that we both want to do , your folks want to do , and want to do , and we will get it done .

' It is a great partnership , but I think it 's a partnership that we can take even further , ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bilateral free trade agreement . And also I think building a wider economic partnership for the future , as well . ' May said the U.S. and U.K believe in keeping markets ' free , fair and open ' and will seek to strike a trade agreement that honors those principles .

' And there 's an opportunity -- I think a great opportunity -- to greatly enlarge that , especially now , in light of what 's happening , to tremendously enlarge it and make it a much bigger trading relationship . ' The working visit presents an opportunity to make a deal , May had said , but of course , the timing of Trump 's trip has its challenges , she acknowledged . ' I think there are huge opportunities for us to seize together , and challenges for us to work together on to tackle as well , ' she said . ' And the opportunity today is that we are going to look at how we do both of those . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ state visit that 's taking place more than two years into his term when May said she 'd leave her post to make way for a successor to pass a Brexit agreement in Parliament that she never could . Trump has suggested he prefers conservative politician Boris Johnson as her replacement , but he has not endorsed him for the position . He was said to have called Johnson on Tuesday while he was in London . The White House has not responded to a request for comment . The U.S. president claims multiple British politicians have sought his backing in the race for prime minister , and he met Tuesday afternoon in London with Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage in Winfield House , the ambassador 's house and Trump 's in-town residence . Farage and Trump are longtime friends - the British politician stumped for him in 2016 - and the president congratulated him on his election victory last month . In an extraordinary speech for a politician who could one day have to work with Mr Trump , the Labour leader did not mention the President by name but played on familiar themes of his critics in a high-energy speech . Mr Corbyn also sprung to the defence of London Mayor Sadiq Khan one day after he was called a ' stone cold loser ' by Mr Trump - and suggested the President had ' created a greater sense of hate and hatred ' . The 70-year-old politician who hopes to one day become Britain 's prime minister spoke as tens of thousands of protesters failed to turn up to anti-Trump demonstrations today which had been billed as a ' carnival of resistance ' . Photographs showed a lacklustre crowd of only a few tens of thousands of activists at most gathering while the President was inside 10 Downing Street meeting Prime Minister Theresa May as part of his three-day @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ expectations from 250,000 people to just 75,000 - blaming a ' working Tuesday ' for the lower number , which is the most organisers believe they can expect to turn up . Mr Corbyn raged at the US President in a frothing speech at Parliament Square - condemning him for treating refugees like ' enemies ' , ignoring climate change , and trying to exploit the NHS for profit . In a message that will delight his hard-Left acolytes , he insisted Mr Trump had ' no answers ' on how to create ' peace and justice ' . Despite snubbing the ceremonial banquet the Queen threw for Mr Trump last night , Mr Corbyn - known for sitting down with Hamas , Hezbollah and the IRA in the past -- denied he was avoiding talking to Mr Trump . Mr Trump himself said in a joint press conference with Mrs May this afternoon that the Labour leader had asked for a meeting , but he had refused , describing Mr Corbyn as a ' somewhat negative force ' . The President added : ' I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ opposed to criticise - I really do n't like critics as much as I like and respect people who get things done - so I decided not to meet . ' He also dismissed the protests as ' fake news ' , saying : ' We left the Prime Minister , the Queen , the royal family , there were thousands of people on the streets cheering . Even coming over today there were thousands cheering . ' Then I heard there were protests , I said ' Where are the protests ? I do n't see any protests ' .

As he stood in a packed Trafalgar Square next to his 16ft robot of Donald Trump sitting on the loo , Don Lessem appeared momentarily worried by its popularity . The 67-year-old American had shipped his newly-made $25,000 ( ? 19,600 ) creation to the UK for the mass protests against the state visit of the US president . But , as the talking model became a focal point for demonstrators in central London , Mr Lessem -- a dinosaur expert whose company designs animatronic versions of the prehistoric animals -- wondered what it might mean for his own legacy .

Mr Lessem flew his robot in because his mother , long ago , fled the holocaust in Europe . " She sees similar things in Trump that she saw in Hitler back then , " he said . But people came from far and wide on a drizzly Tuesday to support a whole variety of causes which , they say , Mr Trump 's presidency endangers : climate change action , LGBT+ rights , Middle East peace , and freedom from ending up with a chlorinated chicken on one 's dinner plate , chief among them . They came chanting , cheering , jeering and waving an admirable number of placards making reference to small hands and big wigs . " The toupee is fine , " read one . " But the asshole under it has to go " . Here , in short , was British anger , British humour and not a small amount of British incredulity when news filtered through from a press conference -- literally being held around the corner at the Foreign Office -- that the man himself @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " A very , very small group of people , " the US president said at about the exact time the massed throngs were marching through Whitehall .

There is nothing good to be said for him . " It was a view , unsurprisingly enough , widely expressed through the day . " Not even worth a milkshake , " is how Richard Winslade 's placard summed up his own views . " It 's the first protest I 've ever actually been on , " he said . " And I 'm 50 , so this is a turnaround . But I just feel people need to speak up , not just against the man himself , but against everything he stands for . He 's a danger to the world .

Among the highlights of this carnival of resistance were -- but of course -- the now-famous Trump baby blimp , and a singer who noted , in the form of a cheerful little ditty , that if a kingdom is run by a king and a principality by a prince , then it is perhaps fitting Donald Trump runs a " big country " -- " work it out , people " . Generally , they ticked the crowd-pleasing boxes of calling Trump a racist and homophobe ; praising immigration and the NHS ; and then making way for the next person . Frances O'Grady , general secretary of the TUC , elicited an especially big cheer for labelling the president a " dirty old man " . Those who went off-piste from such a formula tended to lose the crowd 's attention . A bit like when a band plays the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Nonetheless , his announcement at the very start of his speech that he was " absolutely not refusing to meet anybody " -- not even Trump , presumably -- seemed somewhat out of place . Had n't he literally just boycotted the royal banquet ? Either way , perhaps this was a pre-emptive announcement . Shortly after , it emerged that the Labour leader had actually requested a meeting with the US president ( turned down ) during his visit here . No matter . " It 's not exactly how I 'd chose to spend it , " the 32-year-old archaeologist said while waving a placard declaring that Barack Obama was a better golfer than his White House successor . " But this felt like a chance to say that the whole way the world is going -- this rise of populism , eating away at hard-won rights -- is wrong . " Trumpism is just one manifestation of that .

And , as a nine-year-old -- and probably one of the youngest people at the protest -- she has a bigger stake in the future than many . Mum Nadya had taken her out of home-schooling for the day to bring the youngster . " Coming to a protest is an education in itself , " she said . " She 's learning so much today . " Key among that , the 43-year-old screen printer reckoned , was the fact that " just because the royal family and British politicians are pandering to this bully does n't mean that it 's the right thing to do . It 's not . " As for Harper herself ? Was she enjoying her first protest ? " Loving it , " she said . " Although I wish I was taller so I could see the stage . " Plenty of adults felt the same .

A crowd @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ police after becoming involved in a disturbance , while separately , one attendee -- proving that demonstrators at Brexiteer rallies do n't have a monopoly on questionable placards -- carried a sign saying : " They all work for Rothschild " .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. The phrase 'take the hassle out of parking' involves an NP ('the hassle') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', where 'parking' modifies the following head noun 'hassle'. It does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, and the NP object 'the hassle' does not function as a causee. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Today , we are celebrating World Environment Day and so here are some top tips to help you make sure you 're doing your part : Leaving the car running while you 're waiting for someone might seem like the easiest thing to do , but it has an impact on the environment . The Royal College of Physicians estimates 40,000 deaths a year in the UK are linked to air pollution , with engine idling ( leaving car engines running ) contributing to this . If your room is serviced daily and towels are readily available , it might seem easier to use a fresh towel every day . But this is n't something you would do at home , because it 's not practical and your water and electricity bills would significantly increase . Every 10kg towel washed consumes at least 50 litres of water . By re-using a towel , you can save both water and energy . Keep a reusable water bottle in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ each time you need one . Not only could this help to reduce plastic waste , but it could also save you a bit of money . The UK uses 13 billion plastic bottles every year and only 7.5 billion of these are recycled -- the rest go to landfill . Make use of the recycling bins that are dotted around most hotels . It 's easy not to really think about which bin you 're throwing your rubbish in when you 're away but recycle as you would if you were at home . Every year , 18 million tonnes of waste is sent to a UK landfill site . Eating locally sourced food can be healthier for you and it can help to reduce your carbon footprint . You are also supporting the local economy and it 's likely there is an interesting story behind each product . Eating more local food reduces CO2 emissions by reducing the distance food travels from farm to consumer . Key cards have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ worry about turning off the lights and the TV when they leave the hotel room . However , not all hotels have key cards . Make sure you take a few seconds to check everything is switched off . Turning off the lights reduces your carbon footprint , saves money and energy . If you are off to a conference or going away with a group of people , consider car sharing options . It can save you money , take the hassle out of parking and more importantly it is much better for the environment . If half of all UK motorists received a lift just one day a week , congestion and pollution would be reduced by 10% . " It 's about what kind of difference we want to make " Imago Venues at Loughborough University UK concluded the research and Emma Boynton , head of sales and marketing , commented : " We all have an impact on the environment every day . We know we can make a difference but , for Imago , it 's about what kind @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ part of our on-going commitment to becoming more sustainable we have set up an environment champions working group . This is where members of staff meet as a group to discuss and implement ways of how we can do our bit for the environment and reduce our carbon footprint. " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Additionally, it does not give rise to either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'carve a career out of being a social media influencer' does not involve a causee or a causer in the required sense, and the verb 'carve' does not fit the semantic classifications of verbs that typically appear in the V1 slot of the construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'carve a career out of being a social media influencer', where 'out of' is part of a prepositional phrase describing the origin or basis of the career, not indicating a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The NP object 'a career' does not function as a causee, and the construction does not induce either of the required interpretations.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It uses 'get a lot of joy out of going around and watching people vibe out to this music', where 'a lot of joy' is the object of 'get', and 'out of' is followed by a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb and 'out of'. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Shares ( Image credit : Dan Prakopcyk ) " It 's a party , " says Rome Ramirez , singer and guitarist for Sublime with Rome , about the band 's music and live shows . Ramirez is speaking to Guitar World while en route to Bloomington , Indiana on Sublime with Rome 's tour in support of their just-released new effort , Blessings . And indeed , the band 's shows boast an ideal party soundtrack , with classic Sublime ska-punk-reggae tunes like " Wrong Way , " Santeria " and " What I Got " sitting next to buoyant Blessings tracks like " Light On " and " Blackout " in a setlist sprinkled with any number of covers , from Bob Marley & the Wailers ' " Jailhouse " to Bad Brains ' " House of Suffering " to the Grateful Dead 's " Scarlet Begonias . " " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , " Ramirez says . He spoke to Guitar World about that music , as well as the new album , guitars and Sublime 's storied past , in this exclusive interview . How did Blessings come together ? Back in 2017 we were planning to come up with some new music and put together a record , but we had been touring a whole bunch and we had n't really had the chance to properly go home and just kind of live a little bit and take in some inspiration . It was right around that time where I found out that I was going to be a father to my son , who 's two now . And if you know anybody with children , it 's a pretty fucking life-changing thing ! So that caused us to be at home for a little bit -- we took the better part of about eight months off . But toward the end of that time it was like , " Yeah , let 's get back in the studio and really try and do something great @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Blessings track " Wicked Heart " and that got everybody excited . I mean , bassist Eric Wilson , who 's not a man of many words , was like , " This is a hit ! All we can do now is fuck it up . " Management was excited , the label was excited , radio programmers were excited . So we knew it was the start of a great album . Then when I wrote the lyrics to " Blessings , " it was at that point that I knew exactly what we wanted to do with this album . From there we finished everything up . You worked with Rob Cavallo on this one . What did he bring to it from a production standpoint ? Rob Cavallo brought the rock . He brought everything that any reader of this magazine would want to hear . laughs Rob Cavallo rolls with the greatest shit -- road cases of gear that have collectively sold , like , a billion records . He 's got Lindsey Buckingham 's Strat , a head that Billie Joe Armstrong @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ snare drum from so and so -- all this crazy stuff . So that was really cool . Because I 'm quite a boring guitar player in essence -- I love my guitar and I play the shit out of my guitar , but I only have two guitars and I only use one live . A guitar is almost like a limb to me , like another arm or another leg -- it just does what it does . And because of that I can be a bit quick on the recording end . But Rob is very much a musician 's musician . So one of the reasons the album sounds so big is because I 'd be like , " Cool , that sounds great . Let 's get to the bass . Let 's jump into vocals . " He 'd be like , " No way -- that guitar tone sucks ! Let 's beat it . " And then he would change the microphones , plug in a new Supro amp or something , do this , this and that and all of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , that sounds really good ! " He just pushed us in these really old-fashioned , awesome ways that made for a really amazing-sounding record . What was your main guitar and amp setup in the studio ? I used my Stratocaster , which is a ' 96 Fender that has been hacked on by a million people , but it sounds really good . And Rob has this Strat that the Fender Custom Shop made for him . It 's like this $15,000 guitar and it sounds so good . So I use those on a lot of songs . And then on one song I even used a Gibson ES-335 . And as far as heads , we used some of Billy Joe 's stuff , a Marshall and an Orange , for the distorted sounds , and then we used my Divided By 13 head for cleans . I know we had a Fender Twin Reverb as well . Onstage you guys play a lot of new and old Sublime music , but also a fair amount of covers , and from a wide @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that sort of mix ? Traditionally , people are just so used to shows being like , you know , the band plays the band stuff , and then they 're probably going to play a lot of their new album because they 're promoting it . You can kind of see the formula . But if you think about Sublime , well , what is Sublime 's music ? It 's a concoction of a lot of other fucking music , you know what I mean ? So that carries over into the live thing . When I first started jamming with Eric Ramirez hooked up with Wilson in 2009 , 13 years after the death of Sublime singer and guitarist Bradley Nowell and we started doing Sublime with Rome , he would always be like , " I want to add this song and I want to add that song . " After a while I realized , " Oh that 's what Eric did in Sublime . " That 's what Sublime is . It 's like a party . " And you would n't go @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 're gon na play this one CD . " People would be like , " Get the fuck out of here ! " They wan na hear different shit . I think a Sublime show is that same vibe . Is there a song from the early days of Sublime that you particularly enjoy playing ? There 's definitely a handful . One of them recently has been " Let 's Go Get Stoned " from 1992 's 40oz. to Freedom , because it has , like , a jazz intro and then it goes into this kind of weird Eighties chorus and then it drops into a full-on UB40 reggae thing . It also has a hip-hop sample , it 's a perfect example of who Sublime is . And when I sing that shit live , I do n't know , I just have so much fun singing that live sometimes that I 'll just get outside my body . I 'll get the chills . It must be amazing to see people still get so much joy from this music more than 20 years @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , I really do get a lot of joy out of just going around and watching people vibe out to this music and tell me their stories about the music . Because I have similar stories from when I discovered Sublime when I was a young man . So we actually have so much more in common than one would think , because we both come from that same fanatical standpoint . Now that Blessings is out , what 's in the near future for Sublime with Rome ? We 've got a bunch of creative stuff dropping . We 're putting out a lot of new visuals for some of the songs on the album , and then we have this tour and also a couple other events we 're planning , as well as some festivals and stuff . We 're ready to support all the music that we just dropped and bring it around the world . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'make a steady career out of switching codes' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a general activity without the specific semantic and syntactic properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Sage Karam and JR Hildebrand will make their Americas Rallycross debuts in the ARX2 class this weekend , making them the latest drivers to transition from IndyCar to rallycross . Both drivers will line up for Dreyer & Reinbold Racing , a team that 's no stranger to the world of American open-wheel racing .

A whole host of drivers have transitioned from IndyCar , its ' Road to Indy ' development ladder , and other single seater series to North America 's top level of rallycross competition . While not making race starts , a number of big names from the world of open-wheel racing have got seat time in rallycross machinery .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'out of' in a different context, indicating taking time away from an activity (writing) rather than causing or preventing someone from doing something. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'opt out of having their data analysed' involves the verb 'opt' which does not fit the V1 slot of the construction, and there is no NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The research shows only 13% of public trust tech multinationals with sensitive health data . This comes amidst significant public fear about international technology companies accessing people 's personal health information , and recognition of the need for patients to be able to opt out of having their data analysed if they choose . With growing interest in the potential for artificial intelligence to find solutions to complex health problems and relieve pressure on doctors and nurses , research by YouGov reveals that analysing anonymous , totally unidentifiable patient data for medical research purposes attracts widespread public support . The research , funded by the Oxford-based health technology business Sensyne Health plc , found that three quarters of the public ( 76% ) support the analysis of anonymous NHS patient data by medical researchers in order to develop better treatments and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Such research also enjoys overwhelming cross-party support , with 95% of MPs supporting this analysis to enable more effective treatment , and four fifths saying they would support it as a way to alleviate financial pressure on the NHS . However , public support is dampened by a lack of trust in allowing large international technology platform companies to exploit NHS patient data , rather than data being safeguarded and analysed in the UK . In the survey , 86% of people called for the NHS gaining a fair share to be a priority for any analysis undertaken , with four fifths saying explicitly that the Government should act to ensure that the NHS and taxpayers stand to benefit above all . MPs felt similarly , with 79% viewing NHS patient data to be a national resource and asset ( rising to 87% of Labour MPs ) and 80% calling on the Government to take formal steps to ensure that it is protected by law . Commenting on the findings , Rachel Power , Chief Executive of the Patients Association , said : " There 's little doubt that new technologies will play a part in delivering care in future , and the results from this study confirm that most people support the use of anonymised patient data for medical research purposes . " There is also widespread support for data to be safeguarded and analysed in the UK -- and the Patients Association agrees that data should be used only for research purposes , and never accessed or used inappropriately .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes a situation where people notice they are running out of something, but there is no causer causing a causee to move out of or be prevented from an action denoted by a VP[-ing] predicate.

I will be calling on the council to work with the Star Inn The City to get these toilets back open again as a matter of urgency , as I do n't believe it 's acceptable for the public to have to search elsewhere for toilet facilities when they should be available here .

Chris Froome will be forced out of cycling for " at least six months " as the scene of his horrific crash remains splattered in blood . The four-time Tour de France winner suffered serious injuries after colliding with a wall during a practice run before stage four of the Criterium du Dauphine in Roanne , France on Wednesday . Froome has since been in intensive care after undergoing successful operations to fix his injuries , which included a broken hip , femur , and fractured ribs . He also suffered a small fracture to his neck , and BBC Sport report that he will now spend the next six weeks in hospital . The surgeon who operated on him , Remi Philippot , could not give a definitive time frame for Froome to make a full recovery , but revealed the surgery was a " success " , and that his patient was already considering a return to the saddle . The scene where Chris Froome crashed into a wall at high speed remains covered in the cyclists blood ( Image : PA ) Philippot said : " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he can cycle again . " Professional sports people are very good mentally and want to win but maybe I think I have to slow him down because he 's very quick and wants to go fast but bone healing needs at least two months so we have to be patient .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'take the worry out of sailing alone', where 'sailing alone' is a gerund phrase but the construction does not involve a causee NP object that participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it lacks the movement/extraction or prevention interpretation characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

You 've taken the plunge . You 've booked a cruise and you 're going solo . With no partner to rely on , no friends to gossip with and no children to look after , it 's just you . And you 're terrified . But do n't be -- because going it alone is an exhilarating experience , as seasoned cruisers and psychologists alike will tell you . Think of it as a huge adventure where you get to do what you want , when and how you want , with no need for compromise . " Every time we put ourselves into a new environment , we 're giving ourselves an opportunity to learn and grow , " says psychologist Dr Georgina Barnett . " It brings us a sense of achievement . It makes us stronger . It 's like going on a voyage of self-discovery . " " But to get the very best out of a solo trip , you need the right mindset , " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ isolated or conspicuous if they travel as a singleton , but that 's down to the fear of the unknown . In fact , there are so many independent travellers around these days that you wo n't stand out from the crowd . " So how can we take the worry out of sailing alone and enjoy all the advantages of solo travel ? We asked the experts for their tips ... Look confident , and people will believe you are , advises Dawn Simone of Elle Voyage , which organises group travel for women . ' If you present an upbeat appearance , you 're less likely to attract people who will take advantage of you , ' she says . " If you have a little girl or little boy lost look , you will send out the message that you do n't want people to talk to you , and if you walk around with your head down , you 'll appear vulnerable . So smile and look happy , even if you do n't feel it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ towards you . Hold your head high and you 'll also take in more , see more , and find plenty of new places to go and explore . " If you 've never travelled on your own before , try a dry run before you set sail , suggests Dawn . " Practise in your own country . For example , if you live in London , try a solo weekend away in Cornwall or Scotland . That will get you used to eating a meal by yourself or going into a bar alone and being comfortable in your own company . Afterwards , a solo cruise will be easy . " Dawn also points out that cruising is an excellent option for single travellers because the safety element of your trip is already sorted out . " You know where you 're going to sleep every night , and there 's an amazing support network on a cruise , should you ever need it . " Cruises are geared up to cater for solo diners , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them , advises professional wellness coach Hollie Bailey . " You can try sitting on a table of single travellers for the first night , but if you do n't enjoy it , have a quiet word with the staff , " she suggests . " If the people on your table talked too much for your liking , just ask if you can swap tables , or sit alone . Do n't worry about what people think of you , or whether you 're hurting anyone 's feelings . " If you choose to sit alone , remember most people do n't care what you 're doing . They 're too busy with their own lives , so enjoy the time to eat what you want , at your own pace . A good trick is to take a book or a magazine to flick through between courses . It 's the perfect adult comfort blanket ! " If you 're in the market for romance , send out the right signals , says Dr Georgina Barnett , lead psychologist at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you look friendly , open and receptive , so people know they can come and chat to you , and you 're not going to be hard work , " she says . " If you 're permanently on your phone , people will think you do n't want to be approached , ' she adds . " Try joining in with activities , too , as these are a great way of meeting new people . If you go to a talk , people just file in and then file out , but at a class you can interact with your fellow guests . It 's a great way of starting friendships -- and maybe meeting someone special . " Make friends with the onboard staff and you 'll always have someone to chat to , says Hollie Bailey . " Some of the staff will be on the ship for six months at a time so by the nature of their job , they will be sociable and gregarious , so ask them where they are from and get up-to date on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ easy to make friends with the staff on board , " she continues . " Start by sitting at the bar , have a smoothie and chat to the barman . You 'll get all sorts of useful information about the ship and who is on board . " Simonne Fairbanks , COO of Cruising Excursions , suggests buying trips as a package , so you 're likely to see the same faces on each one . " That makes it easier to get to know people , " she says . " Also you 'll save money , because packages are better value . " However , she warns against jumping into a taxi and expecting a driver to show you the sights . " I once got a cab in Rome and the driver offered to show me around for 300 euros , " she says . " I accepted but he did n't speak much English , he could n't understand me and I never got to see the Trevi Fountain or the Spanish Steps . " " Go along and watch the class through a window , or from the back , and if it 's something you 'd like to try , turn up the next day a few minutes early , " she says . " Explain to the instructor that you 've never done yoga before , or want to try spinning but do n't know how to get started , and ask them to give you some pointers . That way , they 'll look out for you , and you 'll soon start seeing familiar faces so you 'll feel less alone . " Some cruise lines now offer special trips entirely for solo travellers . " Everyone on board is travelling on their own so there 's no awkwardness at mealtimes , for example , " says Will Sarson @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ offers around eight solo cruises per year . " It 's a guaranteed way of meeting other solo travellers . But because there 's only one person in each cabin , the ship is only half full and there are plenty of quiet corners where you can sit with a book , if that 's what you prefer . " |

11 years on from debut album Antidotes , and Foals have progressed from scruffy math-rock upstarts to bona fide festival headliners . They may be curiously absent from next week 's Glastonbury Festival line-up , but there 's no time to think about Worthy Farm at Digbeth Arena on Sunday evening . The makeshift - borderline guerrilla - gig venue is packed out of adoring fans for the now four-piece , whose triumphant return to Birmingham cements their place as one of this country 's finest live acts ( and best bands ) . The second of two nights in Birmingham , at Digbeth Arena on June 16 , continues a tour promoting their fifth album , Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost -- Part 1 . And it 's new material that appears from second one , with a gorgeous opening salvo of On The Luna and Mountain At My Gates , and no denying they are at the very top of their game . Yannis Phillipakis of Foals Walter Gervers departed as bassist after 12 years but any line-up changes do n't impact the fantastical nature of their performance , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Everything Everything 's Jeremy Pritchard recruited to give the band a lithe readiness . The use of new stuff - Snake Oil , Syrups - proves how deep , textured and downright magnificent their back catalogue has grown to be , with well-deserved Reading + Leeds Festival headline sets now under their belt . Of course , it would n't be a Foals gig without the uncompromising indie dancefloor bangers . The most captivating moment , of course , is Spanish Sahara , the breathtaking Total Life Forever album centrepiece , with a heavenly vocal ushering over an entranced crowd . " Leave the horror here , " Yannis breathes , in restrained style , before rolling back the years by airing that brand of math-rock which saw them become one of the most important bands of their generation . In Degrees sees the energetic crowd go wild , while White Onions sparks a fair bit of lager throwing before Two Steps , Twice brings the evening to an epic close . It 's the finale which seems most fitting , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ far they 've come - and how much they still have to give . As the fans pile out , it is clear they have seen something truly special at Digbeth Arena . Foals remain capable of filling a dancefloor and sparking riotous scenes in the audience , as well as airing touching takes on global warming and future panic . Philippakis has grown from the mid-2000s - as a performer , now all livewire eccentricism and brilliant magnetism , and a lyricist too - and it 's clear , based on his adoring faithful , his crowd have grown up and grown outwards alongside him . And as the lager dries and cups are collected , the mind wanders back to Glastonbury - and the question everybody is asking : just when will this lot headline ? |

Unions are calling on the government to take action as new figures reveal how increases in rent in the South East have not been matched by pay rises in the last seven years . The warning has come from the GMB general trade union in the United Kingdom which has more than 631,000 members . Its members work in nearly all industrial sectors , in retail , security , schools , distribution and the utilities , social care , the NHS and ambulance service and local government . A study published by GMB shows the average two bedroom flat in the South East increased by 25% between 2011 and 2018 , with the average increase in monthly earnings only 8.1% across the region . Rent for Bracknell Forest residents has increased by 25% , with wages increasing by an average of 9.7% .

So too are younger workers living for longer in private sector rental accommodation . As a direct consequence , employers must be prepared to pay much higher wages to staff to enable them to afford these much higher rents . " If employers do n't respond with higher pay , they will face staff shortages as workers , especially younger people , are priced out of housing market .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction with 'price clubs out of making a move'. It involves a prevention interpretation where the subject (reports over the weekend) causes the object (clubs) to be prevented from making a move by means of pricing. The verb 'price' can be categorized under 'By means of exerting force or pressure, sometimes understood metaphorically'. The NP object 'clubs' functions as a causee, and the sentence allows for a prevention interpretation, fitting the criteria of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Jon Stead scored 20 goals in 67 games with the Blues but , as the years have gone on , he 's been slipping down the league pyramid . He scored 10 goals for Notts County last season but could n't stop the famous old club 's slide into the non-league game , which is where he 'll be playing his football next season .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('Reports over the weekend') + V1 ('suggested') + NP object ('clubs') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('making a move'). It also induces a prevention interpretation, where the reports are causing clubs to be prevented from making a move due to pricing. The verb 'price' fits into the category of verbs that exert force or pressure metaphorically, which is one of the classifications for verbs in the V1 slot of the construction.

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('government meddling') + V1 ('shutting') + NP object ('them') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('qualifying for the 2018 World Cup and 2019 Asian Cup'). It also induces a prevention interpretation, where the action of shutting them out prevented them from qualifying. The NP object 'them' functions as a causee, and the NP subject 'government meddling' is an inanimate force/event, which aligns with the semantic requirements of the construction.

JAKARTA ( Reuters ) - Indonesia 's Bali United this week became the first club in Southeast Asia to list its shares , a move that officials and fans hope could be a step towards developing a league that has been dogged by allegations of corruption . Soccer is hugely popular in Indonesia , but while some local clubs have large fan bases , the country 's leagues have frequently been tarnished by match-fixing claims and also deadly violence between opposing sets of supporters . " We hope that this IPO ( initial public offering ) will increase the overall transparency between investors , management and the fans , who will now have a chance to own shares , " said the club 's chief executive Yabes Tanuri . Bali United supporters snapped up nearly a third of the shares , primarily in small holdings , according to the listing 's underwriter , Kresnas Securitas . For many , it was the first time they had owned shares and some hoped it could at least help in the fight against corruption @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we the supporters will know information like how players are exchanged and what prices are paid for them , " said Bali United fan Adi Wijaya . " If all the soccer clubs professionalise like Bali then they can be kept in check by investors and OJK ( the financial regulator ) . " Indonesian soccer 's governing body ( PSSI ) is currently embroiled in a match-fixing scandal , with police investigating some executives for allegedly offering bribes to coaches . The Southeast Asian country was also barred from international soccer in 2015 due to government meddling in their domestic league , shutting them out of qualifying for the 2018 World Cup and 2019 Asian Cup . The ban was lifted in 2016 . Bali United 's top shareholder and executives said they see the share listing as a way of tapping potential for growth in a country of more than 260 million people , as well as increasing transparency and opening a path for other clubs to list . He said the club had decided to list after Indonesian President @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ further development of the game . The Bali-based club , which ended the 2018 season in 11th place in Indonesia 's 18-team Liga 1 , is expected to be followed on the stock exchange by rival Persija Jakarta , which topped the league last year . Thailand 's Buriram United , one of the region 's largest clubs , has also announced plans to list in 2019 . The only club previously to have listed in Asia is China 's Evergrande Taobao back in 2015 . Bali United players told Reuters they were confident the financial changes would be positive . " This ( IPO ) is good for the club and good for football in Indonesia , " said the club 's star Montenegrin -- born striker Ilija Spasojevic . While admitting he was not fully up to speed with the inner workings of an IPO , he was happy if it ensured the financial health of a club that he hopes can win the league this year . But the challenges for Indonesian soccer remain significant . Indonesian authorities have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in September 2018 , after a 23-year supporter of Persija Jakarta was beaten to death by supporters of rival club Persib Bandung .

Reasoning

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves a passive construction with 'has been repaid' and 'out of existing cash resources' does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not yield a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

But after putting up posters in local schools and community centres , around 40 came for the second session . To give these poor kids the enjoyment of winning a medal , Thompson fruitlessly searched high and wide for a tournament . He was eventually put in touch with the Armenian FA , where many staff had been purged following the revolution .

Victim 's daughter says council regularly pay out for motorists who hit potholes but wo n't for her father The family of 83-year-old Roger Hamer , who died after hitting a pothole on his bike in Ramsbottom three years ago , have accused Bury Council of ' wriggling out ' of paying compensation and brushing the matter under the carpet . Hamer crashed on Bury New Road in March 2016 and died of head injuries in hospital a month later . Although no witnesses saw what caused him to fall , at least one local had previously reported a road defect at the spot . The coroner concluded that one pothole " possibly contributed " and another " probably did contribute .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It describes a situation where stress is taken out of queueing, but there is no NP object functioning as a causee, and it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

So we went to honestly review the brand new Riverside Leisure Centre and found these 17 things that you can expect to find during your first visit . Parking could set you back almost ? 15 for a whole day Unfortunately , before you even walk through the door , you find yourself having to fork out for a car parking ticket . There was a problem with the machines when I went to visit so I managed to secure free parking for the day , but I was informed that this would n't be the case when the problem was fixed . Run by Chelmsford City Council , the prices are fairly standard compared to other car parks around the city , but you would have to pay almost ? 15 if you want to spend most of the day there . There 's plenty of space inside One of the first things that caught my attention was how spacious the building is . As soon as you walk through the entrance , you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ busy days you 'll never feel crammed in or struggling for room . It also meant there was a lot of light making it 's way into the main building , which made it just that little more welcoming and attractive . The swimming pool is one of only a few of its size in the UK Swimming is undoubtedly one of the main reasons why people use leisure centres . It 's an enjoyable and healthy activity for people of all ages , and the brand new pools that the complex has to offer will certainly bring in a lot of customers . I visited on a Thursday morning and only had to spend ? 5 , which gave me full access to the pool area with no restrictions on how long I could stay for . The complex has both an adult and kids pool Whether you 're a semi professional swimmer after your daily 25 lengths , or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ look no further . The new Riverside centre has two pools - one designed for adult use and the other for younger children . The centrepiece is the 10-lane , 25-metre pool with high-tech adjustable barriers , allowing half of the pool to remain open whilst the other side is used for swimming and specialist lessons . It features an adjustable floor - being one of only three in the UK with its dimensions - to be used for training and competition purposes . During my visit , there were designated lanes for swimmers of all speeds ( slow , medium and fast ) , giving people looking for a leisurely swim and those wanting to test themselves their own space The large slide in the pool area No matter how old you are , you never lose that urge to go on the flume at a swimming pool , so it was to my great sadness that it was closed when I visited . According to a member of staff , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just a few hours , which are : Wednesdays , Fridays and weekends between 4pm and 7pm Therefore , if you or your kids want to enjoy the experience of what looks like a very good flume , make sure you choose the right day to visit . I was fairly short of room Compared to other public swimming pools I 've been to , the majority of the changing cubicles at Riverside were fairly similar in size . But as I experienced , some of them have a brick pole coming through the middle of bench , meaning there was n't a lot of room to sit down or move around . I can imagine this would be particularly difficult for parents who are trying to change themselves at the same time as their young child , but there are larger cubicles available for people wanting more space . The new Riverside changing area Do n't make the same mistake I did . I went into the cubicle @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ before going to the lockers to secure my items away . It was at this point I realised I did n't have a ? 1 coin to put in the locker . So I had to get changed again , go back out to reception and change up some loose coins in order to use it . It was five extra minutes that could have been easily avoided by taking in the right money , and while this was my own fault , it 's a helpful reminder to people to make sure you have a ? 1 coin with you if you plan on using a locker . It costs 20p to dry your hair Naturally , I expected to be able to use the hairdryer for free . But no . It states on the the side of the appliance that a 20p coin is required in order to use it . Even then , I thought I 'd get it back at the end , but it did n't send it back out . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ appropriate change on you before you use the facilities . It 's hassle that you could do without , especially with young children to take care of . A new pram parking section is available A nice addition that I was really pleased to see was a new pram park for families with little ones . The space gives you the chance to leave buggies and pushchairs , items that you 're unable to take into the changing rooms , in a designated area just outside the pool . It 's always nice to be greeted with a smile and a warm welcome , wherever you go . And you wo n't be disappointed here . The lady on the reception desk was friendly , efficient and helpful , letting me know that I was more than welcome to take a look around the complex . When I went to the caf ? after my swim , the staff members were very smiley and asked @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ offering me a tray despite only having a couple of items . It 's the small things that can often make your visit more enjoyable . There was a great kids meal selection on offer There was a good variety of hot and cold food on offer , as well as a kids menu that you can pick and choose from . For ? 4.25 , you can pick any five items from the bottom shelf , including crisps , fruit juices , sandwiches , chocolate and fresh fruit . Plenty for a child and at a very reasonable price . For adults , the caf ? offers hot sausage rolls , jacket potatoes , beans , savoury slices as well as a variety of cold sandwiches , salads and fruit . It was a healthy selection , as you would expect for a leisure centre , and plenty of choice for people of all tastes . This meal set me back ? 6.25 The staff were friendly , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was a bit of a surprise . It cost me ? 6.25 for a ham salad sandwich , a bottle of Lucozade and an orange , which I thought was incredibly steep . And it was an orange that required cutting , there was no chance of peeling it . So that was one of the only downsides to what was otherwise an enjoyable first visit . poll loading The gym The new gym boasts fully accessible facilities and two ' Changing Places ' units , that are bigger and better-equipped gold standard toilets . The huge facility has an exciting new timetable of classes , virtual sessions with Les Mills instructors and spin classes that include light and sound shows . There is also a programme of pioneering ' Sport for Confidence ' session , for anyone that may be experiencing barriers getting into sport . These classes , run by qualified coaches and occupational @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with the occupational therapists on hand Wednesdays and Fridays for free advice and support . A variety of sports are on offer There 's also a new sports hall with five-a-side football goals , basketball hoops and badminton courts , giving customers the chance to take part in a number of fun activities . And there 's a spin studio which looks extremely slick both inside and out . And the ice rink , although I did n't manage to get inside , is just another unique feature that the leisure centre has to offer . It 's easy to find your way around One thing that I really liked was the colour scheme . Each different section was highlighted in a different colour which made it incredibly easy to find your way around the centre . The ice rink is purple , blue for the pool , yellow for the soft play area and green for the gym and spin studio . Overall , the colour scheme of the entire building is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that makes your visit that little bit easier . To take the stress out of queueing and waiting to speak to someone on the reception desk during busy times , the centre has installed two ' do it yourself ' machines . On these , you can look up different tickets , how much they cost , and pay for them using your card . This gives you quick and easy access to all of the centre 's facilities . Chelmsford has some incredible scenery , and you do n't have to miss out when you go to the leisure centre . The caf ? area looks out onto the River Chelmer , with Bond Street shopping centre just round the corner - and with seating available both inside and outside , visitors can enjoy the view while they tuck into their food . I can see this being a popular spot for customers , especially on hot and sunny summer days . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And just to round it off , there 's even a place for adults to drop off their young ones while they enjoy some time to themselves . Located on the ground floor , the centre has a creche where children can play with toys and entertain themselves while mum and dad go for a swim . The bright colour scheme makes it even more appealing , and I think it 's a brilliant addition .

Moeen Ali moved serenely to a century of one-day appearances for England against Sri Lanka , the 22nd player his history to reach the landmark and the fourth of this current crop . Eoin Morgan ( 205 ) leads the way , ahead of Joe Root ( 138 ) and Jos Buttler ( 137 ) . Should the hosts go all the way to the final , both Adil Rashid and Chris Woakes are likely to go to 99 caps come the final in mid-July . In no previous era in England 's ODI history have they boasted such a depth of experience , and I dare I say it , talent . You ca n't help but draw comparisons with their football counterparts , whose much-heralded golden generation were blessed by five international centurions . Wayne Rooney , David Beckham , Steven Gerrard , Ashley Cole and Frank Lampard all reached three figures , joining just three others to reach the milestone . The difference between this group and the footballers who floundered at multiple World Cup and European Championship tournaments is they have a chance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ experiment must be curtailed I was never a fan of One Foot in the Grave . The same old inevitable build-up to the same old inevitable punchline . If you 've seen it once , you 've seen them all . James Vince 's international career is turning into a turgid sitcom of its own , and another which you know how it will end . There is no " I do n't believe it " about the Hampshire man at this level anymore . Two opportunities to nail down a place at the top of the England order have been wasted , frittered away by one miss-timed hook and a nick to first slip . England now face a conundrum . Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins will be licking their lips at the prospect of adding to Vince 's troubles at Lord 's next week , if Jason Roy is given more time to recover from his hamstring tear , or ruled out altogether . Alex Hales seems like the natural option to replace the Surrey opener but he has not played cricket since @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Tom Banton at One-Day Cup winners Somerset are among them , but should they not be integrated into the squad now ahead of the knock-out phase ? If they continue to play the waiting game England could unleash one of the youngsters in the biggest game of their lives with little time to mentally prepare . The most sensible option could be to mirror what India have done and draw a second opener from their lower order . Moeen Ali is the prime candidate and though he has an average of 37.57 at No.1 he would represent a safe pair of hands . Could Tom Banton be parachuted into England 's team ? He might be 35 , down a few on the speed gun and slightly more rotund around the midriff but the Sri Lanka seamer continues to produce . And if the climax to the IPL final did n't convince you , his two spells against England surely will have . He trapped Jonny Bairstow first up - his second golden duck of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Both deliveries were virtuoso from Malinga , perfect in length and with plenty of licks behind them . And after Joe Root was strangled down the legside , he reproduced the trick to trap Jos Buttler . Such has been the regularity of the Malinga yorker it has almost become his stock delivery . Single-handedly , through the T20 era , he has made a living out of perfecting the hardest ball in cricket . His slower fuller ball has also become somewhat signature . Malinga plans to hang up his bowling boots after next year 's T20 World Cup in Australia , but on this evidence , he could continue for some years yet if Sri Lanka were able to tempt him . Showing no sign of slowing down and with his supreme accuracy having not yet escaped him he would remain a genuine asset . Can England 's cricketers go where the footballers could n't ? Though much has been made of the format of the World Cup and the predictable formation of the semi-finals , that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ noise generated by the crowds at many matches has been one of the stand-out characteristics of this tournament yet there was little more than a murmur as Leeds hosts its first match . There was a disorganised band and mild chatter which combined to create a hum around Headingley more fitting of a Test match than a World Cup group game . Large swathes of the ground were empty as well , a surprise given this is the hosts ' only trip to these parts until the Ashes in August . Granted , a Sri Lanka comeback did provide some belated drama but by that stage , many of the day-trippers had gone home and the ICC 's blue sponsors seats were more discernible than ever . When you 're only mid-way through a tournament and matches start to drift into irrelevance in the eyes of actual ticket-holders , maybe it is time to admit you have n't got the format right . What should have been a routine victory inadvertently turned into a genuine test of England 's fortitude @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ series at home and abroad , we were about to learn a lot of this team . And to put it mildly , they failed . Emphatically . The lower order produced a number of lazy , nothing shots which did not fit the situation nor the status many have given them over the last four years . Ben Stokes only needed a partner to stay with him , but it felt like the buck was being passed among the bowlers . Suddenly , not only has England 's hopes of winning the tournament taken a knock but so has their semi-final hopes . Morgan 's men will have to win one of their last three games against India , Australia and New Zealand , or hope that Bangladesh or Sri Lanka do n't win their remaining matches . Either way , we have learned plenty about the character of this team . And it is time to be worried .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'made a habit out of keeping', which does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of keeping' is part of the idiomatic expression 'made a habit out of', not a transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'making money out of selling drugs' involves an NP ('money') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and 'selling' modifies the following head noun 'drugs'. This does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, nor does it involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

A former lance corporal in the army who served in Afghanistan has avoided jail after being caught with thousands of pounds of cannabis . Scott Hutchison , 29 , fell into drug use after being medically discharged from the army due to PTSD and was roped into dealing to pay off debts . And things came to a head when police eventually caught him with ? 23,000 of cannabis . Defence agent Mike Monro told Aberdeen Sheriff Court : " He started adult life in a normal way and then entered the armed forces and that is where the troubles began .

Researchers at Oxford University have put forward the idea that red meat should be taxed to reduce the ' cost burden ' on the NHS , turning some of our most wholesome food into a luxury product available only to the wealthy . The study by the Oxford Martin School and the Nuffield Department of Population Health , cites a highly controversial World Health Organisation report which says there may be a link between beef , lamb and pork and the risk of disease . The report 's main author , vegan Marco Springmann , claims that stroke , diabetes and cancer may all be linked to red meat . However , sketchy and numerous studies have failed to find any definitive links between the consumption of red meat and previous studies have shown that the rate of cancers , such as breast cancer and colorectal cancer , are similar in both meat eaters and vegetarians . We also know , thanks to the Meat Advisory Panel , that average red meat consumption is now ' well below ' guidelines produced by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a varied diet is part of disease prevention , and that other factors such as smoking , body weight and drinking levels should also be taken into account . Studies which focus on one dietary aspect , without recognising the compounding effects of all lifestyle factors on overall health and wellbeing , are flawed and can be sensationalist . We believe the benefits of red meat , such as the provision of protein for building muscle and bone and as a source of vitamins , minerals and antioxidants essential for the nervous system , blood cells and the immune system are an important component in a balanced diet . These benefits must be considered when planning future policies on health and wellbeing . And we believe that there is , therefore , no evidence to support a red meat tax on the grounds of changing consumption patterns which would only serve to increase prices and reduce the ability of poorer families to afford a healthy , natural , home-grown product . Everyone should have the opportunity to eat some of the best beef and lamb in the world @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( WHO ) backed out of sponsoring the EAT-Lancet Commission on Food , Planet and Health due to its promotion of the ' Planetary Health Diet ' which calls for a drastic reduction in meat consumption on a global scale .

A woman on Mumsnet bought out an old argument about whether men should have paternal rights of rejection ( Picture : Mumsnet/Getty ) A woman has posted on Mumsnet saying she sympathises with men who want no involvement in unwanted pregnancies . Claiming that women can opt out by having an abortion or the morning after pill , the poster lamented that men do n't have any choice but to accept the pregnant woman 's decision . She said a legal option should be available for such men pointing out that he has no desire to be a part of the child 's life in any way , will not ever be able to seek any type of access , and will not pay money . The woman used an example of her friend who has had a baby with a man who chose not to be involved but then went back on his decision .

By having sex and climaxing , they 're opening themselves up to the possibility of children , argued commenters .

' The woman argued that this system would stop ' deadbeat dads ' and allow single mums to prepare for children . Advertisement Advertisement There should be some rules in place to regulate the agreement , she argued , like having a cut off date ( i.e before the baby is born ) and a no-deal where the mum can prove that pregnancy was planned . The woman argued that this system would stop ' deadbeat dads ' and allow single mums to prepare for children ( Picture : Mumsnet ) Mumsnet users disagreed though , saying : ' Not interested in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more deadbeat , whether or not it 's dressed up as equality . Nope . ' ' This is stupid and misogynistic , ' said another . ' Women get to terminate pregnancies because it 's wrong to force anyone to bear children they do n't want . ' The fact that it is not men bearing children ( and accepting the consequent physical , emotional , social and financial costs of pregnancy ) is NOT a disadvantage to men . ' If men do n't want children they can abstain from sex , use condoms or have a vasectomy . That is the point where they get to opt out . ' While there is no precedent in the UK or any rules for paternal rights to rejection , there have been cases made around the world for men to opt out of fatherhood .

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('he') + V1 ('was cheated') + NP object ('out of') + VP2[-ing] predicate ('winning a World Cup'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, as it implies that someone prevented him from winning a World Cup by cheating. The verb 'cheated' falls under the category of means by deception or trickery, and the NP object 'he' is a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Additionally, the sentence is in passive voice, which is acceptable for this construction.

Paul Dickov , who went on to be a full international , scored in the final against Saudi Arabia Pele . Sellouts at Hampden and Tynecastle . Future superstars . Saudis with suspicious passports . Facial hair . Penalty shootouts . Being stood up by a girl . An Amsterdam nightclub . Bus drivers buying booze for kids . A house party . And Craig Brown . The under-16 World Cup finals of 1989 has long since been woven into the rich tapestry of Scottish football as one of the apparently endless series of ' could ye , did ye , have ye ' moments to befall those representing the national team . Yet even among that litany of foul-ups and failures , losing a World Cup final at Hampden on penalties against Saudi Arabia having led 2-0 and missed a penalty with 18 minutes to play stands out for its utter fecklessness . Granted , the Saudis may not have adhered to the ' under-16 ' competition criteria as assiduously as the Scots , but to somehow contrive to lose from the position they were in on that June day in Glasgow seems spectacularly careless @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enabled manager Brown to adopt a more sanguine attitude to what remains one of the highlights of his career . " The blunt truth is we overachieved in that tournament , " he says . " We just wanted to get out of the groups , albeit the Scottish FA wanted a bit more than that ... " Much more , in fact . A year before the finals - when he was under-21 coach and assistant to Andy Roxburgh with the senior side - Brown was summoned by Scottish FA secretary Ernie Walker and told he would be taking over Ross Mathie 's under-16 side . " He threatened me , really , " says Brown , recalling his embarrassment at supplanting his former Clyde colleague . " He told me that the success of the tournament depended on the success of the Scottish team , and that I had to succeed . He told me if there was anything they could do to help , just ask . " Brown arranged for his prospective finals squad to act as runners for the Scottish FA 's coaching @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the likes of Alex Ferguson , Jim McLean and Walter Smith , and was determined to arrange as many matches as he could . " It was a really tight bunch because we travelled all around Europe together that year , " says then Dundee United winger Andy McLaren . " And there was some fun and daft stuff going on ... I can remember we were in Holland and they let us go to a nightclub when we were 15 . " While that might jar with Brown 's desire to ensure they were the fittest and best-drilled team in the finals , it did serve the young Scots well . Every night they were together , the manager could be found hirpling along the corridors of their quarters , chapping on doors and demanding 50 trunk curls , sit-ups or press-ups from the likes of McLaren , Paul Dickov and Brian O'Neil , each of whom he would eventually award senior caps to . That trio started the opening game of the finals and went on to play significant roles in a tournament that , belatedly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Group stages 10/06 Scotland 0-0 Ghana . Hampden . Att : 6,500 12/06 Scotland 3-0 Cuba . Fir Park . Att : 9,000 14/06 Scotland 1-1 Bahrain . Fir Park . Att 13,500 " Meeting Pele before the first game at Hampden was some start , shaking the great man 's hand , " recalls winger McLaren , but that was one of the few highlights of a drab beginning to the tournament . Just 6,500 fans were scattered around the vast , open terraces of the national stadium for the game against Ghana , which ended goalless after captain Kevin Bain missed a penalty . " The keeper saved it but it came straight back to me and I tried to put my laces through it , " says Bain . " But it went about three miles over the bar . " Spot-kick misery at Hampden would be revisited a couple of weeks later , but at that stage a point was considered a reasonable start against a side containing Pele 's proclaimed heir , Nii Lamptey . A larger crowd gathered @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a comprehensive clubbing of Cuba , with three goals in nine first-half minutes - two from Morton attacker Kevin McGoldrick adding to an opener from Dundee United midfielder John Lindsay - setting up a decider against Bahrain . By that stage , interest was growing and 13,500 turned up at Fir Park to see Celtic midfielder James Beattie put the Scots ahead within two minutes , only for the Bahrainis to earn the point that would win them the group . 17/06 GDR 0-1 Scotland . Pittodrie . Att : 10,200 " That was the game that made me go , ' woah , this is getting big now ' , " says O'Neil , the ratcheting-up of the intensity against the East Germans more than compensating for a slight dip in the attendance . Failure to win the the group meant a last-eight meeting with Brazil - South America 's strongest representatives - had been avoided , but the second-best side in Europe remained ominous , if familiar , opposition for the Scots . The teams had fought out a 2-2 draw in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for Brown 's boys , who failed to make the semi-finals after losing 2-1 to the USSR and drawing 1-1 with Italy in their other two group games . The East Germans , however , scudded France 3-0 in the last four before being taught a lesson by the peerless Portuguese , with the finalists claiming the two European places alongside the hosts in the World Cup . The East Germans had been based in Aberdeen for their group games and looked comfortable in their surroundings , imposing their efficient , short-passing , disciplined style on the Scots . Manager Brown talks of that being the night when " things clicked " for his side but captain Bain 's recollection is of a much more fraught evening . " We got absolutely battered , " he says . " Big Jim Will was outstanding in goal that day and kept us in it . " But , as the regulation 80 minutes edged into stoppage time , Scotland pushed forward in search of a winner . " Lindsay picked up a loose ball in the centre circle and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " With the GDR indecisive , he beat the last defender and shot low and hard to score , sending Scotland into the semi-final . " 20/06 Portugal 0-1 Scotland . Tynecastle . Att : 29,000 Ask those old enough what they remember of the ' 89 tournament and most will talk either about bearded Saudis or this astonishing evening in Edinburgh . Officially , 29,000 fans were wedged into Tynecastle - although anecdotal evidence suggests many , many more - with somewhere in the region of 5,000 locked out . " Driving in on the bus , you could tell there would be a big crowd , but there were people sitting on the track , " says McLaren . " It was absolutely rocking . " Consequently , kick-off was held up for 40 minutes . " We went out 10 minutes before the game was due to start , " says Bain . " But when they decided to delay it , we could n't get back off the pitch because there were so many people milling about , so we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " In the other half of the playing surface , the Portuguese were doing likewise . Coached by future Real Madrid boss and erstwhile Manchester United assistant Carlos Queiroz , their XI included the likes of Luis Figo and Abel Xavier , as well as Miguel Simao , who went on to play for St Johnstone . The contest was described by Fifa as " the artisans of Portugal v the pragmatic Scots " but the pragmatists would teach the artisans a lesson on a febrile evening , O'Neil scoring the only goal when he bulleted in Lindsay 's corner after 54 minutes . " They were favourites to win the tournament but we played really , really well that night , " said the goalscorer . None more so than Bain , with the Fifa report stating that " Gil Gomes , the star Portuguese striker , was marked with great awareness and authority by the Scottish captain " . As it happens , both followed broadly similar paths in the intervening years - injury hampered Bain 's attempts to carve out a career at Dundee @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Peterhead and East Fife , while said Portuguese star striker suffered similar issues at Benfica before bumping around English non-league football . And both now have sons involved in the game , with Angel Gomes an England Under-16 international who plays for Manchester United and Kevin junior the physio at Ross County . But only one has led their nation out in the final of the Under-16 World Cup . So what is it like to lead out Scotland at Hampden in a World Cup final ? " Eh , I ca n't actually remember , to be honest , " says Bain sheepishly . " I remember trying to get through the traffic on the bus and I can remember holding up a placard spelling out ' thank you ' but I ca n't remember leading the team out and the game itself is a blur . " That confusion is perhaps understandable when you consider the tumultuous events of the previous couple of weeks , in which this group of 15 and 16-year-olds had gone from being utterly unrecognisable to national heroes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ school and suddenly we were the biggest thing in Scotland - we were on the back pages , the front pages , and everywhere else , " says McLaren . O'Neil talks about the surreal nature of the build-up and the fact that " we 'd be walking down the street and people would recognise us " . And Bain recalls the TV cameras and comedian Andy Cameron turning up at the team base in Largs the night before the final . Both teams were described as " surprise finalists " in the Fifa dispatch , but 58,000 people were inside Hampden to watch Scotland and Saudi Arabia attempt to become the world champions . The Scots were understandably confident , buoyed by the home support , but some concerns crept in as the teams lined up . " I had just turned 16 , so I was always one of the younger ones , but these Saudi boys had full-grown beards . It was pretty ridiculous , " says winger McLaren , who was fit for the final after missing much of the tournament with a calf problem @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " There were rumours ; people who had seen them play earlier in the tournament said they looked mid-20s . " A quick glance at the squad list shows that the Saudis were all born in the last five months of 1972 , so were towards the upper limit of the age restriction , and had showed " extraordinary physical maturity " during the tournament , according to Fifa . The governing body added the caveat that " this can be explained by the fact that in this part of the world , mental and physical development is reached at a much earlier stage " . Regardless , the Scots were two up inside 25 minutes after goals by Ian Downie and Dickov . Arsenal prospect Dickov created Downie 's seventh-minute opener , eluding his marker and crossing for the Aberdeen midfielder to angle a header high into the net , then he doubled the advantage himself , pouncing on a loose ball and , from an acute , angle chipping Saudi goalkeeper Mohamed Al-Deayea , who would go on to win 178 full caps and play at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ world-beaters at that stage , " says a rueful Dickov , now a pundit . It seemed that they would be when , with just 18 minutes of the regulation 80 remaining , Dundee United 's Gary Bollan was hauled down after a coruscating run and a penalty was awarded . Up stepped O'Neil , but Al-Deayea produced a splendid save . " If we 'd scored , we would have won , " says Bain , who had a late header cleared off the line . " And then it would n't have mattered if they were 16 or 26 . " It was very much the latter , according to Scottish FA secretary Walker . " We were cheated , " he told the Daily Record in 2009 . " I mean , it was so obvious - the Saudi keeper looked like Peter Shilton . And I was told by a coach that one player was married with three children and was a captain in the Royal Guard - yet he was playing in the Under-16 World Cup . Everyone tacitly acknowledged we were done @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tells a similar tale , and suggests that the $35,000 reward put in trusts for each of the victorious Saudi players to cash in once they reached the age of 35 was claimed " sooner than it might have been for a few of them " . However , O'Neil is less ready to believe that he was cheated out of winning a World Cup . " Some cultures are just a lot more physically mature at that age , " he says . " Lads in that culture tend to have facial hair at a younger age , just like lads in our culture tend to be peely-wally with freckles . It 's just grasping at straws . " After O'Neil 's penalty miss , the Scots wilted and the Saudis scored twice to force the game into extra-time , despite being reduced to 10 men . " We did well to hold on to 2-2 because we were all towing caravans , " added O'Neil . " We probably should n't have even survived to take it to spot-kicks . " But they did . Meaning @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the courage to take a penalty in a shootout for Scotland at Hampden in a World Cup final . Nervous ? " No chance , " says McLaren . " I was desperate to take one ; I 'd practised for that moment ever since I first kicked a ball . It is what I dreamed of doing growing up in Castlemilk . You were always pretending to take a penalty in a World Cup final or Scottish Cup final and I think I was the first to put my hand up . I remember looking up and seeing my mum and dad in the crowd . I held my three fingers up because I was taking the third penalty and my maw covered her face because she didnae want me to take one . " Not everyone was as confident . Dickov missed the first kick and , although one of the Saudis also erred from the spot to take it to sudden death , O'Neil 's second failure of the day proved decisive . " Nobody fancied it , " the former Celtic youngster explained . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bad , bad penalty . I was n't actually that nervous , I just was n't very good at them . " If Brown is to be believed , O'Neil 's day got even worse . " I met Brian standing on his own at George Square later that night and he said he 'd been stood up by a lassie , " the manager says . " So he missed two penalties and got a custard pie ... I told him , ' you deserve it for missing two penalties in a World Cup final ' . " O'Neil , though , tells a different story , one corroborated by Bain - even if the duo ca n't agree on how the majority of the squad found their way to defender Eddie Conville 's house in Bishopbriggs . " Eddie 's parents had just moved but still had the keys to their old place , " recounts Bain . " And on the way , our bus driver went to the off licence for us . " " Naw , it was taxis that we got @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " But I had to be at the airport for 6am the next day because I was going to America with Celtic . So I 've no idea what old Broon is talking about me and some bird . Mind you , a think a lot of the boys did alright that night ... " By the next morning , though , they were back to being 15 and 16-year-olds struggling to establish themselves as professional footballers . Even Brown acknowledges that most of his squad were " okay , at best , individually " and only three of the 18 - O'Neil , Dickov and McLaren - would go on to win full international caps . Many , though , enjoyed careers in the senior game , with midfielder Neil Murray winning a domestic treble with Rangers , Bollan lifting the Scottish Cup with Dundee United , winger David Hagen winning the First Division with Livingston , and defender Scott Marshall making 27 appearances for Arsenal . Others fell victim to an assortment of misfortunes - knee injuries did for Dundee @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Kilmarnock goalkeeper Martin Dickson - or simply fell out of love with football . Arsenal goalkeeper Will , who was player of the tournament , dropped down the leagues before joining the police ; Celtic full-back Jim Beattie became a taxi driver after fighting cancer ; Aberdeen midfielder Downie became a postman ; and Morton attacker McGoldrick quit football at 19 to work in a tannery . " Some people peak earlier than others and some are late developers , " says Bain , who is now a sales manager for a car company in Kirkcaldy . " A lot of the guys were with big clubs and it was tough to break into their teams . There are certain things you might have done differently but I 've got no regrets ... not many people have led Scotland out at a World Cup final at Hampden . " |

It also fits the prevention interpretation, as it implies that someone prevented him from winning a World Cup by cheating. Additionally, the sentence can be paraphrased in passive voice, aligning with the construction's properties.

Paul Dickov , who went on to be a full international , scored in the final against Saudi Arabia Pele . Sellouts at Hampden and Tynecastle . Future superstars . Saudis with suspicious passports . Facial hair . Penalty shootouts . Being stood up by a girl . An Amsterdam nightclub . Bus drivers buying booze for kids . A house party . And Craig Brown . The under-16 World Cup finals of 1989 has long since been woven into the rich tapestry of Scottish football as one of the apparently endless series of ' could ye , did ye , have ye ' moments to befall those representing the national team . Yet even among that litany of foul-ups and failures , losing a World Cup final at Hampden on penalties against Saudi Arabia having led 2-0 and missed a penalty with 18 minutes to play stands out for its utter fecklessness . Granted , the Saudis may not have adhered to the ' under-16 ' competition criteria as assiduously as the Scots , but to somehow contrive to lose from the position they were in on that June day in Glasgow seems spectacularly careless @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enabled manager Brown to adopt a more sanguine attitude to what remains one of the highlights of his career . " The blunt truth is we overachieved in that tournament , " he says . " We just wanted to get out of the groups , albeit the Scottish FA wanted a bit more than that ... " Much more , in fact . A year before the finals - when he was under-21 coach and assistant to Andy Roxburgh with the senior side - Brown was summoned by Scottish FA secretary Ernie Walker and told he would be taking over Ross Mathie 's under-16 side . " He threatened me , really , " says Brown , recalling his embarrassment at supplanting his former Clyde colleague . " He told me that the success of the tournament depended on the success of the Scottish team , and that I had to succeed . He told me if there was anything they could do to help , just ask . " Brown arranged for his prospective finals squad to act as runners for the Scottish FA 's coaching @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the likes of Alex Ferguson , Jim McLean and Walter Smith , and was determined to arrange as many matches as he could . " It was a really tight bunch because we travelled all around Europe together that year , " says then Dundee United winger Andy McLaren . " And there was some fun and daft stuff going on ... I can remember we were in Holland and they let us go to a nightclub when we were 15 . " While that might jar with Brown 's desire to ensure they were the fittest and best-drilled team in the finals , it did serve the young Scots well . Every night they were together , the manager could be found hirpling along the corridors of their quarters , chapping on doors and demanding 50 trunk curls , sit-ups or press-ups from the likes of McLaren , Paul Dickov and Brian O'Neil , each of whom he would eventually award senior caps to . That trio started the opening game of the finals and went on to play significant roles in a tournament that , belatedly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Group stages 10/06 Scotland 0-0 Ghana . Hampden . Att : 6,500 12/06 Scotland 3-0 Cuba . Fir Park . Att : 9,000 14/06 Scotland 1-1 Bahrain . Fir Park . Att 13,500 " Meeting Pele before the first game at Hampden was some start , shaking the great man 's hand , " recalls winger McLaren , but that was one of the few highlights of a drab beginning to the tournament . Just 6,500 fans were scattered around the vast , open terraces of the national stadium for the game against Ghana , which ended goalless after captain Kevin Bain missed a penalty . " The keeper saved it but it came straight back to me and I tried to put my laces through it , " says Bain . " But it went about three miles over the bar . " Spot-kick misery at Hampden would be revisited a couple of weeks later , but at that stage a point was considered a reasonable start against a side containing Pele 's proclaimed heir , Nii Lamptey . A larger crowd gathered @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a comprehensive clubbing of Cuba , with three goals in nine first-half minutes - two from Morton attacker Kevin McGoldrick adding to an opener from Dundee United midfielder John Lindsay - setting up a decider against Bahrain . By that stage , interest was growing and 13,500 turned up at Fir Park to see Celtic midfielder James Beattie put the Scots ahead within two minutes , only for the Bahrainis to earn the point that would win them the group . 17/06 GDR 0-1 Scotland . Pittodrie . Att : 10,200 " That was the game that made me go , ' woah , this is getting big now ' , " says O'Neil , the ratcheting-up of the intensity against the East Germans more than compensating for a slight dip in the attendance . Failure to win the the group meant a last-eight meeting with Brazil - South America 's strongest representatives - had been avoided , but the second-best side in Europe remained ominous , if familiar , opposition for the Scots . The teams had fought out a 2-2 draw in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for Brown 's boys , who failed to make the semi-finals after losing 2-1 to the USSR and drawing 1-1 with Italy in their other two group games . The East Germans , however , scudded France 3-0 in the last four before being taught a lesson by the peerless Portuguese , with the finalists claiming the two European places alongside the hosts in the World Cup . The East Germans had been based in Aberdeen for their group games and looked comfortable in their surroundings , imposing their efficient , short-passing , disciplined style on the Scots . Manager Brown talks of that being the night when " things clicked " for his side but captain Bain 's recollection is of a much more fraught evening . " We got absolutely battered , " he says . " Big Jim Will was outstanding in goal that day and kept us in it . " But , as the regulation 80 minutes edged into stoppage time , Scotland pushed forward in search of a winner . " Lindsay picked up a loose ball in the centre circle and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " With the GDR indecisive , he beat the last defender and shot low and hard to score , sending Scotland into the semi-final . " 20/06 Portugal 0-1 Scotland . Tynecastle . Att : 29,000 Ask those old enough what they remember of the ' 89 tournament and most will talk either about bearded Saudis or this astonishing evening in Edinburgh . Officially , 29,000 fans were wedged into Tynecastle - although anecdotal evidence suggests many , many more - with somewhere in the region of 5,000 locked out . " Driving in on the bus , you could tell there would be a big crowd , but there were people sitting on the track , " says McLaren . " It was absolutely rocking . " Consequently , kick-off was held up for 40 minutes . " We went out 10 minutes before the game was due to start , " says Bain . " But when they decided to delay it , we could n't get back off the pitch because there were so many people milling about , so we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " In the other half of the playing surface , the Portuguese were doing likewise . Coached by future Real Madrid boss and erstwhile Manchester United assistant Carlos Queiroz , their XI included the likes of Luis Figo and Abel Xavier , as well as Miguel Simao , who went on to play for St Johnstone . The contest was described by Fifa as " the artisans of Portugal v the pragmatic Scots " but the pragmatists would teach the artisans a lesson on a febrile evening , O'Neil scoring the only goal when he bulleted in Lindsay 's corner after 54 minutes . " They were favourites to win the tournament but we played really , really well that night , " said the goalscorer . None more so than Bain , with the Fifa report stating that " Gil Gomes , the star Portuguese striker , was marked with great awareness and authority by the Scottish captain " . As it happens , both followed broadly similar paths in the intervening years - injury hampered Bain 's attempts to carve out a career at Dundee @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Peterhead and East Fife , while said Portuguese star striker suffered similar issues at Benfica before bumping around English non-league football . And both now have sons involved in the game , with Angel Gomes an England Under-16 international who plays for Manchester United and Kevin junior the physio at Ross County . But only one has led their nation out in the final of the Under-16 World Cup . So what is it like to lead out Scotland at Hampden in a World Cup final ? " Eh , I ca n't actually remember , to be honest , " says Bain sheepishly . " I remember trying to get through the traffic on the bus and I can remember holding up a placard spelling out ' thank you ' but I ca n't remember leading the team out and the game itself is a blur . " That confusion is perhaps understandable when you consider the tumultuous events of the previous couple of weeks , in which this group of 15 and 16-year-olds had gone from being utterly unrecognisable to national heroes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ school and suddenly we were the biggest thing in Scotland - we were on the back pages , the front pages , and everywhere else , " says McLaren . O'Neil talks about the surreal nature of the build-up and the fact that " we 'd be walking down the street and people would recognise us " . And Bain recalls the TV cameras and comedian Andy Cameron turning up at the team base in Largs the night before the final . Both teams were described as " surprise finalists " in the Fifa dispatch , but 58,000 people were inside Hampden to watch Scotland and Saudi Arabia attempt to become the world champions . The Scots were understandably confident , buoyed by the home support , but some concerns crept in as the teams lined up . " I had just turned 16 , so I was always one of the younger ones , but these Saudi boys had full-grown beards . It was pretty ridiculous , " says winger McLaren , who was fit for the final after missing much of the tournament with a calf problem @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " There were rumours ; people who had seen them play earlier in the tournament said they looked mid-20s . " A quick glance at the squad list shows that the Saudis were all born in the last five months of 1972 , so were towards the upper limit of the age restriction , and had showed " extraordinary physical maturity " during the tournament , according to Fifa . The governing body added the caveat that " this can be explained by the fact that in this part of the world , mental and physical development is reached at a much earlier stage " . Regardless , the Scots were two up inside 25 minutes after goals by Ian Downie and Dickov . Arsenal prospect Dickov created Downie 's seventh-minute opener , eluding his marker and crossing for the Aberdeen midfielder to angle a header high into the net , then he doubled the advantage himself , pouncing on a loose ball and , from an acute , angle chipping Saudi goalkeeper Mohamed Al-Deayea , who would go on to win 178 full caps and play at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ world-beaters at that stage , " says a rueful Dickov , now a pundit . It seemed that they would be when , with just 18 minutes of the regulation 80 remaining , Dundee United 's Gary Bollan was hauled down after a coruscating run and a penalty was awarded . Up stepped O'Neil , but Al-Deayea produced a splendid save . " If we 'd scored , we would have won , " says Bain , who had a late header cleared off the line . " And then it would n't have mattered if they were 16 or 26 . " It was very much the latter , according to Scottish FA secretary Walker . " We were cheated , " he told the Daily Record in 2009 . " I mean , it was so obvious - the Saudi keeper looked like Peter Shilton . And I was told by a coach that one player was married with three children and was a captain in the Royal Guard - yet he was playing in the Under-16 World Cup . Everyone tacitly acknowledged we were done @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tells a similar tale , and suggests that the $35,000 reward put in trusts for each of the victorious Saudi players to cash in once they reached the age of 35 was claimed " sooner than it might have been for a few of them " . However , O'Neil is less ready to believe that he was cheated out of winning a World Cup . " Some cultures are just a lot more physically mature at that age , " he says . " Lads in that culture tend to have facial hair at a younger age , just like lads in our culture tend to be peely-wally with freckles . It 's just grasping at straws . " After O'Neil 's penalty miss , the Scots wilted and the Saudis scored twice to force the game into extra-time , despite being reduced to 10 men . " We did well to hold on to 2-2 because we were all towing caravans , " added O'Neil . " We probably should n't have even survived to take it to spot-kicks . " But they did . Meaning @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the courage to take a penalty in a shootout for Scotland at Hampden in a World Cup final . Nervous ? " No chance , " says McLaren . " I was desperate to take one ; I 'd practised for that moment ever since I first kicked a ball . It is what I dreamed of doing growing up in Castlemilk . You were always pretending to take a penalty in a World Cup final or Scottish Cup final and I think I was the first to put my hand up . I remember looking up and seeing my mum and dad in the crowd . I held my three fingers up because I was taking the third penalty and my maw covered her face because she didnae want me to take one . " Not everyone was as confident . Dickov missed the first kick and , although one of the Saudis also erred from the spot to take it to sudden death , O'Neil 's second failure of the day proved decisive . " Nobody fancied it , " the former Celtic youngster explained . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bad , bad penalty . I was n't actually that nervous , I just was n't very good at them . " If Brown is to be believed , O'Neil 's day got even worse . " I met Brian standing on his own at George Square later that night and he said he 'd been stood up by a lassie , " the manager says . " So he missed two penalties and got a custard pie ... I told him , ' you deserve it for missing two penalties in a World Cup final ' . " O'Neil , though , tells a different story , one corroborated by Bain - even if the duo ca n't agree on how the majority of the squad found their way to defender Eddie Conville 's house in Bishopbriggs . " Eddie 's parents had just moved but still had the keys to their old place , " recounts Bain . " And on the way , our bus driver went to the off licence for us . " " Naw , it was taxis that we got @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " But I had to be at the airport for 6am the next day because I was going to America with Celtic . So I 've no idea what old Broon is talking about me and some bird . Mind you , a think a lot of the boys did alright that night ... " By the next morning , though , they were back to being 15 and 16-year-olds struggling to establish themselves as professional footballers . Even Brown acknowledges that most of his squad were " okay , at best , individually " and only three of the 18 - O'Neil , Dickov and McLaren - would go on to win full international caps . Many , though , enjoyed careers in the senior game , with midfielder Neil Murray winning a domestic treble with Rangers , Bollan lifting the Scottish Cup with Dundee United , winger David Hagen winning the First Division with Livingston , and defender Scott Marshall making 27 appearances for Arsenal . Others fell victim to an assortment of misfortunes - knee injuries did for Dundee @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Kilmarnock goalkeeper Martin Dickson - or simply fell out of love with football . Arsenal goalkeeper Will , who was player of the tournament , dropped down the leagues before joining the police ; Celtic full-back Jim Beattie became a taxi driver after fighting cancer ; Aberdeen midfielder Downie became a postman ; and Morton attacker McGoldrick quit football at 19 to work in a tannery . " Some people peak earlier than others and some are late developers , " says Bain , who is now a sales manager for a car company in Kirkcaldy . " A lot of the guys were with big clubs and it was tough to break into their teams . There are certain things you might have done differently but I 've got no regrets ... not many people have led Scotland out at a World Cup final at Hampden . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'wriggle out of accepting culpability' lacks an NP object between the verb 'wriggle' and 'out of', and it does not clearly induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the verb 'wriggle' does not fit the semantic classifications of verbs that typically appear in the V1 slot of the construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'wriggle out of accepting culpability' involves an intransitive verb 'wriggle' with no NP object, and the second predicate 'accepting culpability' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'wriggle out of accepting culpability' involves an NP ('accepting culpability') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', but it does not involve an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A professional boxer who admitted his part in a Telford street attack has pulled out of fighting on Amir Khan 's undercard after a judge controversially relaxed his bail conditions permitting him to travel . Ammir Fiaz Ammir Fiaz , 23 , who confessed to attacking Shakeel Younas in Regent Street , Wellington on December 8 last year , was due to fight in Saudi Arabia on July 12 after Judge Peter Barrie removed his residency requirement for a fortnight . His father and trainer Mo even offered his ? 250,000 house as collateral if Fiaz did not return to be sentenced on August 2 . Despite Judge Barrie 's ruling , Fiaz 's opportunity still hung in the balance , with boxing 's Board of Control set to discuss whether or not to suspend his licence over the weekend . But now he has pulled out of the fight , citing a hand injury . He said : " I 'm going to pull out now . I need a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it and be ready for the fight .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opt out of taking part in it', where 'opt out of' is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase, but it does not involve a transitive verb with an NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

A huge chunk of this devoted player base will buy the game for its multiplayer , and while the formula has n't changed much over the last decade and a bit , it remains a fun and polished way to spend an evening . What is often overlooked by many , however , is the franchise 's rich history of excellent campaigns . While many are rooted in the " follow soldier from A to B while shooting " before a scripted sequence , the series has seen an impressive number of emotional moments scattered throughout its bombastic campaigns . In honour of the upcoming Modern Warfare reboot , the dark and realistic tone of which is apparently making playtesters cry , we 're taking a look at the franchise 's most memorable , and harrowing , moments . Before we begin , it 's worth noting that a spoiler alert is in effect here - while many of these campaigns are only six or so hours in length , those looking to play through them of their own volition should come back to this article after they 've done so .

Your squad 's tactical retreat is slowed by the player rescuing a downed helicopter pilot , before boarding another chopper to get to safety . Unfortunately , while in the air a nuclear bomb is detonated , grounding the squad and leaving you as the only remaining soldier .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'opt out of taking part in it' involves an intransitive verb 'opt' with no NP object, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A huge chunk of this devoted player base will buy the game for its multiplayer , and while the formula has n't changed much over the last decade and a bit , it remains a fun and polished way to spend an evening . What is often overlooked by many , however , is the franchise 's rich history of excellent campaigns . While many are rooted in the " follow soldier from A to B while shooting " before a scripted sequence , the series has seen an impressive number of emotional moments scattered throughout its bombastic campaigns . In honour of the upcoming Modern Warfare reboot , the dark and realistic tone of which is apparently making playtesters cry , we 're taking a look at the franchise 's most memorable , and harrowing , moments . Before we begin , it 's worth noting that a spoiler alert is in effect here - while many of these campaigns are only six or so hours in length , those looking to play through them of their own volition should come back to this article after they 've done so .

While early in the game you 'll walk in the shoes of a diplomatic leader on his way to being publicly executed and kill terrorists aboard a cargo ship as an SAS operative , the all-out war does n't begin until you step into the combat boots of an American soldier flying into a middle-eastern battlefield . Your squad 's tactical retreat is slowed by the player rescuing a downed helicopter pilot , before boarding another chopper to get to safety . Unfortunately , while in the air a nuclear bomb is detonated , grounding the squad and leaving you as the only remaining soldier .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('she has stepped out of being my bridesmaid'). It also exhibits a movement/extraction interpretation, where the subject causes the object to move out of a state (being a bridesmaid). The verb 'stepped' can be categorized under exerting force or pressure, fitting one of the verb classes for the construction. The NP object 'being my bridesmaid' involves a causee (the bridesmaid) participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate.

The Fashion Nova dress that was bought as a bridesmaid dress ( Picture : Fashion Nova ) Would you be willing to let your bridesmaid choose their own dress ? Sure , it takes some of the stress off you , but as one bride found out , it 's not always the best idea . When she asked her sister to buy a ' navy dress with flowers on ' , she ended up choosing a black see-through gown . And when she told her sister it was n't appropriate , she pulled out of being a bridesmaid . Sharing her dilemma in a wedding shaming Facebook group , the woman said : ' The bride-to-be wrote : ' My wedding is in eight days and I told my little sister in January to get a navy dress with flowers on it .

' The dress seems to be the Fashion Nova 's Editorial Cover Floral Maxi Dress in Black , which comes with a bodysuit . The bride said she did n't hate the dress but it just was n't suitable for a wedding ( Picture : Fashion Nova ) The dress costs $69.99 ( ? 55 ) , which is cheap for a bridesmaid dress but the look is n't really suitable . Many who commented on the post said it was n't at all suitable for the big day .

You can try buying a range of different styles in the same colour to make the bridal party fit together but allow everyone to feel comfortable and express their own styles .

' It 's important for each member of the bridal party to feel confident and comfortable , ' says Billie Nicholls , Partner & Buying Assistant . Many high street stores offer a range of styles in the same shades to allow you to get the look you like , which also helps to keep the price down . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'made a lot of money out of selling tat', where 'selling tat' is a gerund phrase functioning as the object of the preposition 'out of', not a VP2[-ing] predicate with a causee. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

POPPIT Sands could become known as ' Poo-pit Sands ' and be stripped of its prestigious Blue Flag award if the toilet facilities are closed . That was the concern voiced by members of St Dogmaels Community Council who fear that Pembrokeshire County Council will pull out of running the toilets to cut costs and off-load it to the community council . Community councillors felt they would not have the expertise or cash to run the ageing facilities , which are in urgent need of an upgrade . The public toilets in the centre of the village in the car park are also under threat . Cllr Gill Wislocka argued it would be a huge financial undertaking and said : " I do n't feel I have the skills or knowledge to deal with something like this .

" If we lose the toilets , we will lose our Blue Flag status , " said Cllr Phil Hutchings . " The footfall through the car park will fall and the National Park has to realise that . " He said there would be a huge impact on the whole area if Poppit Sands lost its Blue Flag . Cllr Elwyn Rees said : " We need to get all the information we can and then perhaps hold a public meeting .

" There 's no point . When markets are quiet there 's really no point in calling ( clients ) . " " I 've been selling them bonds , " he added , contrasting the slow pace with the frenzied buying of European government bonds in recent weeks . Russo 's experience is echoed in dealing rooms across London , the main trading centre for the $5.1 trillion-a-day FX market . Some trading veterans said it reminded them of conditions before the 2008 global financial crisis erupted . Deutsche Bank 's Currency Volatility Index has declined since 2017 to its lowest in 4-1/2 years and currently stands at about two-thirds its levels of early 2019 and less than half the peaks of three years ago . And with central banks expected to extend their decade-long stimulus programmes , the FX funk could be extended as short and long-term interest rates converge towards zero again and rate gaps between major currencies shrink once more . Just how resistant currency markets are to shake-ups was evident on June 18 , the day European Central Bank President Mario Draghi shocked markets by signalling more rate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ yields to record lows , while French borrowing costs fell below 0% for the first time and European shares jumped 2% . But the euro ? It slipped 0.4% , a tiny move by historical standards and only its fourth-largest daily change in June . Euro/dollar , the world 's biggest currency pair , has not traded below $1.10 or above $1.16 since October , a range of little more than 4% , even with trade war and recession threats and the U.S. Federal Reserve 's U-turn on interest rates . In contrast , volatility in U.S. Treasuries has surged to its highest since April 2017 , while the equity market " fear " index VIX remains above multi-year lows plumbed in 2017 . " The Fed is totally in play and rates are moving drastically and there 's no translation to FX . It 's odd to see , " said Russell LaScala , Deutsche Bank 's co-head of foreign exchange . " It 's become this very sleepy asset class . " For a graphic on Euro vs U.S. dollar , click : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ currency and bond markets , click : https : //tmsnrt.rs/2IqAG3R SHORTING VOL One question is whether this unusual calm could end in panic , as in March 2008 when Deutsche 's volatility index rocketed to over 12 , after spending most of 2007 stuck below 7 . Options show little sign of that . One-year implied euro-dollar vol has slumped to 6 , from nearly 8 in January . But while there 's no shortage of political and economic uncertainties arguing for a volatility resurgence , the change of market behaviour could sow the seeds of its eventual end . Many traders have been lured into ' short vol ' strategies whereby , for example , they buy an option earning them a " premium " so long as euro/dollar remains between $1.11 and $1.15 for the next month . If volatility surges , smashing the currency out of its range , traders lose their original payment . In 2017 , becalmed U.S. stocks tempted many on Wall St into short vol bets that eventually exploded in February 2018 -- dubbed " volmageddon " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ inflation reading . " It 's a very risky strategy . But at the same time it 's paid off for four years , " Deutsche Bank 's LaScala said , describing recent late entrants to the vol selling trade as " tourists " . Scant volatility is also prompting bond and equity managers to cut back on hedging , typically used to insure against losses . Nomura 's Russo said investors who had held yen as a risk hedge were disappointed when the Japanese currency did n't rise more during December 's equity rout . It firmed around 3% that month while Wall Street fell 10% . Many have since stopped using yen , long viewed as a safe haven , to hedge portfolios , he said . Similarly , the euro , often a hedge against European risks , has barely responded to recent selloffs in Italian bonds . For a graphic on inverse correlation between euro , Italian spread not what it was , click : https : //tmsnrt.rs/2ZLcHSE Hedge funds have also trimmed bets on currency direction . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sparked some interest , especially from investors prepared to bet the dollar had peaked . He has been telling clients " they have to be ready " if volatility does return . NO DIRECTION Low volatility has been bad for bank earnings . Daily average currency trading volumes have been down about 10% annual from last year in recent months on platforms such as CLS . One senior trader said forex revenues at his London-based bank have shrunk 5% a year for several years . " You ca n't make any money out of something that does n't move . Low volatility is fine but very low volatility is not , " said Richard Benson , head of portfolio investments at asset manager Millennium Global . With investors on the sidelines , traders are spending more time at client lunches and less time transacting . James , an FX trader for a British bank who asked for his surname not to be used , sometimes listens to music at his desk . |

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction with 'was talked out of quitting'. It implies a prevention interpretation where someone prevented the subject from quitting. The verb 'talked' fits into the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot (by means of verbal persuasion), and the NP object (implied by the passive construction) functions as a causee in relation to the VP2[-ing] predicate 'quitting'.

California Sen Kamala Harris stepped into the spotlight by roasting Biden for his recent nostalgia about a pair of segregationist Democratic senators , and lambasted him for opposing federal intervention decades ago to desegregate America 's schools through forced busing . President Donald Trump , 13 time zones away , watched as all 10 rivals agreed that future health care systems should cover illegal immigrants -- and declared that he has already won re-election , tweeting later that it was ' not a good day for Sleepy Joe or Crazy Bernie ' . The President said : ' I am in Japan at the G-20 , representing our Country well , but I heard it was not a good day for Sleepy Joe or Crazy Bernie . One is exhausted , the other is nuts - so what 's the big deal ? ' His comments came after Biden spoke at the debate , carving out territory farther to the left than the Obamacare system dared to tread . ' You can not let people who are sick , no matter where they come from , no matter what their status , go uncovered . You ca n't do that , ' he argued . South Bend , Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg agreed that ' our country is healthier when everyone is healthier ' , and ' we do ourselves no favors by having 11 million undocumented people in our country be unable to access health care ' . ' But of course the real problem is we should n't have 11 million undocumented people with no pathway to citizenship , ' he claimed . In between meetings at the G20 leaders summit in Osaka , Japan , Trump tweeted : ' All Democrats just raised their hands for giving millions of illegal aliens unlimited healthcare . How about taking care of American Citizens first ! ? That 's the end of that race ! ' Ten candidates have taken the stage for part two of the first Democratic debate on Thursday in Miami , Florida . From left to right are : self-help author Marianne Williamson , former Colorado Gov John Hickenlooper , businessman Andrew Yang , Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg , former Vice President Joe Biden , Vermont Sen Bernie Sanders , California Sen Kamala Harris , New York Sen Kirsten Gillibrand , Colorado Sen Michael Bennet and California Rep Eric Swalwell Four of the five top polling candidates in the 2020 field - Buttigieg , Biden , Sanders and Harris - are seen greeting the crowd President Donald Trump watched from the G20 summit in Japan as all 10 Democrat candidates agreed that future health care systems should cover illegal immigrants . The President tweeted that it was ' not a good day for Sleepy Joe or Crazy Bernie ' The biggest targets of the night are expected to be on the backs of front-runners Biden ( left ) and Sanders ( right ) Harris received a hearty applause when she told her fellow candidates : ' America does not want to witness a food fight , they want to know how we 're going to put food on their table ' Sitting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel , Trump sniffed that Democrats ' did n't discuss what they 're giving to American citizens . That 's not a good thing . ' ' I look forward to spending time with you rather than watching the debate , ' he told her , declaring Wednesday 's round ' was n't very exciting . ' While he negotiated with foreign leaders , Democrats gathered in Miami launched into plans for tax hikes and a new leftward tilt . The amity among varying brands of liberalism lasted only so long , with rhetorical punches flying over whose economic and social justice was purest . ' Hey guys ! ' Harris exclaimed as the cacophony threatened to burst through America 's televisions . ' America does not want to witness a food fight ! They 're wondering how we 're going to get food on their tables . ' A half-hour later it was Harris throwing a pie in Biden 's direction . Marianne Williamson - self-help author John Hickenlooper - former governor of Colorado Andrew Yang - businessman Pete Buttigieg - mayor of South Bend Joe Biden - former vice president Bernie Sanders - senator from Vermont Kamala Harris - senator from California Kirsten Gillibrand - senator from New York Michael Bennet - senator from Colorado Eric Swalwell - congressman from California ' It was hurtful to hear you talk about the reputations of two United States senators who built their reputations and career on the segregation of race in this country , ' she said , referring to Biden 's gauzy remembrances of Mississippi Sen James Eastland and Georgia 's Herman Talmadge . ' And it was not only that , but you also worked with them to oppose bussing , ' she continued , revealing that she was part of the second class of black students to integrate the public schools in Berkeley , California . Biden insisted that the Berkeley City Council , not the US Senate , was responsible -- but stammered to explain why he opposed federal government intervention at the time . Defending his half-century-long record on voting rights , a flustered Biden ultimately threw up his hands and blurted : ' My time 's up . I 'm sorry . ' Asked after the debate whether Harris had mischaracterized his views , a grinning Biden interrupted a selfie session with supporters to ask : ' On which of the subjects ? ' ' Yes , she mischaracterized it , ' he insisted , rattling off a legislative history of times in the Senate when he had defended the power of federal courts to step into desegregation fights . Arguing for a single-payer ' Medicare For All ' health care system on Thursday , Vermont Sen Bernie Sanders conceded that most Americans ' will pay more in taxes ' but insisted that they would spend less on health care once the dust settled . Sanders and Harris were the only two candidates to raise their hands to signify that they would outlaw private medical insurance plans in favor of a government-managed system . Sanders said Americans would ultimately demand a single-payer system by telling insurers and pharmaceutical manufacturers ' that their day is gone , that health care is a human right , not something to make huge profits off of ' . He said also that he would spend heavily to eliminate the student loan debts of every American ' by placing a tax on Wall Street ' . Biden took a more measured , folksy approach in keeping with his moderate image . He acknowledged ' enormous income inequality ' in America but proposed only making cuts ' in the $1.6trillion in tax loopholes out there ' . He also said that as president he ' would go about eliminating Donald Trump 's tax cuts for the wealthy . ' Harris blasted the president for a new tax system ' that benefits the top one percent and the biggest corporations in this country . ' She said ' middle class families will pay for ' the resulting increase in the national debt ' one way or another ' . ' I meet people working two and three jobs , ' she said of her campaign experiences and her disappointment with the Trump economy . ' How are you measuring the greatness of this economy ? ' she asked . ' He talks about the stock market . That 's fine if you own stocks . So many families do not .

Biden entered the night with the most at stake , a moderate front-runner who has lost ground drop-by-drop to his more aggressively liberal rivals . Representing the party 's far left flank , Sanders brought a decidedly socialist flair -- dragging his party to the left with promises of wealth redistribution and government-run health care . Sanders is the only debating candidate who promises an older president than Biden , if he should win . He blasted Trump as a ' phony ' , a ' pathological liar ' and a ' racist ' on Thursday , and said ' he lied to the American people during his campaign ' . President Donald Trump tweeted about the debate in between meetings at the G20 leaders summit in Japan Despite the unprecedented diversity of a Democratic field that includes six women , three African-Americans , an openly gay man , a Hindu and a Latino , it has been Sanders and Biden -- the two oldest , whitest men running -- combining to nearly monopolize voter interest in early polling . The two stood at center stage on Thursday , a testament to the Democrats ' ideological tug-of-war that threatens to upend party unity the way it did in 2016 . Harris and Buttigieg joined the two 70-something men as members of a more and more clearly defined second tier . Harris is the lone African-American woman in the field ; Buttigieg is its only openly gay competitor , and roughly half the age of Biden and Sanders . Rounding out Thursday 's group were Sens Michael Bennet of Colorado and Kirsten Gillibrand of New York , former Colorado Gov John Hickenlooper , New York businessman Andrew Yang , California Rep Eric Swalwell and new-age author Marianne Williamson . Hickenlooper , an example of a lesser-known Democrat , drew chuckles Wednesday when he presented himself at the theater only to be asked if he was there for a press pass . And Swalwell , 38 , drew chuckles by noting that he was six years old when Biden said during a California Democratic Convention speech that it was ' time to pass the torch to a new generation of Americans . ' ' Joe Biden was right when he said that 32 years ago . He is still right today , ' Swalwell said . Biden replied that at age 76 . ' I 'm still holding on to that torch . ' Gun control made a brief appearance , largely on the strength of Swalwell 's insistence that the U.S. government should buy up every ' assault weapon ' in America . He would let people ' keep your pistols , keep your rifles , keep your shotguns , ' he insisted , fending off what Republicans see as a Second Amendment slippery slope . ' But we can take the most dangerous weapons from the most dangerous people , ' he claimed Thursday , saying no other presidential candidate would go as far . Sanders said six years ago that states should be in charge of regulating guns ; he sang a different tune on Thursday , saying he ' ran on a platform of banning assault weapons ' in 1988 . Harris said that as president she would take executive action to expand background checks for gun buyers if Congress did not act within 100 days . The red-hot abortion issue made a cameo when moderators asked how the candidates would respond to a scenario where the Supreme Court has reversed the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision . Sanders said his socialized medicine system would continue to pay for abortions , but Gillibrand insisted she was the pack leader on reproductive rights . ' It 's mind boggling to me that we are debating this on stage in 2019 , ' she said . ' I think we have to stop playing defense and start playing offense ' against Trump and the GOP , Gillibrand urged . Republicans waiting for a champion to emerge from the Democrats ' scrum wasted no time mocking Thursday night 's array of rivals as a future cakewalk for Trump . ' The cast of characters may have changed , but the second night 's script was eerily like the first : a two hour-long infomercial for President Donald J. Trump 's re-election campaign , ' Trump campaign press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said in a statement . ' All of the Democrats tripped over each other in a race to see who could stand out as the most leftist candidate , threatening government control of every aspect of people 's lives , ' she said . ' Democrats support tax hikes on the middle class and taxpayer-funded health care for illegal immigrants . Their policies are extreme and out of touch with the realities facing everyday Americans , ' McDaniel said . Biden entered the night with the most at stake , a moderate front-runner who has lost ground drop-by-drop to his more aggressively liberal rivals . Sanders is the only debating candidate who promises an older president than Biden , if he wins The second night of debating came a day after NBC survived technical glitches that forced an early commercial break during the first half of the two-night event . Massachusetts Sen Elizabeth Warren was the only top-shelf candidate to participate on Wednesday , and avoided the kind of unforced errors that could have spelled trouble early in the race . Wednesday 's installment turned into a slug-fest on health care and immigration in which President Trump 's name was invoked only seldom -- and Biden 's not at all . Several Democrats already this week have visited a facility near Miami where hundreds of children are being held after crossing into the US illegally . Three candidates spoke Spanish during portions of the first debate , which , like Thursday 's , was simulcast on Telemundo . Buttigieg dropped Thursday night 's only words ' en Espa ? ol , ' one of the seven languages he speaks . More than 15 million watched Wednesday 's debate on TV , according to data from The Nielsen Company . That number fell short of the first primary debates on both sides of the aisle in 2015 . Trump had more to say about NBC 's first-night production challenges than about his potential 2020 opponents . ' BORING ! ' he declared in a tweet . Five Democrats are officially in the race but failed to qualify for this week 's debates . Kamala Harris has been deemed the clear winner of Thursday night 's Democratic debate - while front-runner Joe Biden floundered under attack from each of the other nine candidates . California Senator Harris came out swinging and delivered a string of poignant responses to questions ranging from income inequality to immigration to health care to race relations in America . The debate reached a fever pitch as Harris confronted Biden about his recent nostalgia about a pair of segregationist Democratic senators , and vilified him for opposing federal intervention decades ago to desegregate America 's schools through forced bussing . ' It was hurtful to hear you talk about the reputations of two United States senators who built their reputations and career on the segregation of race in this country , ' she said , referring to Biden 's gauzy remembrances of Mississippi Sen James Eastland and South Carolina Sen Fritz Hollings . ' And it was not only that , but you also worked with them to oppose bussing , ' she continued , revealing that she was part of the second class of black students to integrate the public schools in Berkeley , California . Biden insisted that the Berkeley City Council , not the US Senate , was responsible -- but stammered to explain why he opposed federal government intervention at the time . Defending his half-century-long record on voting rights , a flustered Biden ultimately threw up his hands and blurted : ' My time 's up . I 'm sorry . ' Biden entered the night with the most at stake , a moderate front-runner who has lost ground drop-by-drop to his more aggressively liberal rivals . He took up the most air time overall with 13 minutes and 18 seconds , according to CNN , followed by Harris with 12 minutes and nine seconds . ' Joe Biden may be a front-runner but he sure did n't look like it at the Democratic debate last night , ' Roxanne Jones , founding editor at ESPN Magazine , wrote in an analysis for CNN . Frank Luntz shared similar insights on Twitter , writing : ' In just about every way imaginable , Kamala Harris dominated . She had the guts to take on and embarrass Joe Biden -- not only did she have the best language , she was the most memorable . ' He continued : ' No , Joe Biden did not make any mistakes tonight ... But he was not prepared for the direct attacks from his opponents . He knew they were coming , but he mishandled them . For that , he is tonight 's loser . ' In his analysis for The Palmer Report , political blogger Bill Palmer praised Harris for ' hitting every question out of the park ' and said Vermont Sen Sanders ' did little with his softball questions ' . Overall , pundits seem to agree that Sanders had a much easier night than experts anticipated given his strong second-place standing in the polls . ' Sanders is lucky that Biden has been so bad , ' Cillizza tweeted . ' It will cover over -- somewhat -- his own decidedly weak performance . ' While moderate Biden stood firmly in the middle of the road , Sanders steered left into socialism with promises of wealth redistribution and government-run health care . He took aim at Donald Trump early on , calling the president a ' phony ' , a ' pathological liar ' and a ' racist ' . In the spin room afterwards he feigned surprise when DailyMail.com told him that Trump had rebuked Democrats for saying they 'd ' give millions of illegal aliens unlimited healthcare ' when moderators asked for a show vote on the subject . ' Look , look , look . In 45 seconds -- I have to be honest with you , and tell you this particular format is not my favorite format , ' the senator said of the moment . ' It 's hard , I know , when you have 10 candidates up there and everybody want to talk . But how do you deal with complicated economic issues or environmental issues in 45 seconds ? It 's kind of hard . ' Sanders said , ' So it becomes kind of a game show , and kind of a reality TV . You have a president in Trump who is doing something that is really quite despicable , and by that I mean not only ignoring the reality of climate change , not only giving tax breaks to the rich , not only wanting to throw 32 million people off of health insurance . ' What he 's doing in terms of the immigrant community , as you can imagine . What he is doing is demonizing people . What he is doing trying to dehumanize them -- not only demonize them but dehumanize them . And what he is trying to do , which is really disgraceful , he is trying to divide the American people up based on where they were born , based on the color of their skin , based on their sexual orientation , based on their religion . We have a president that is a bigot , and I think most Americans know that . And that is just disgraceful . ' Reminded that the question was about illegal immigrants and whether he effectively made the case that they should have access to healthcare in a Sanders utopia , he admitted : ' Not in 45 seconds I did n't , or 12 seconds I did n't . ' But here 's the point and I think most Americans know . If there is a child in a school who is undocumented and that child becomes seriously ill , what do you do ? You let the child die ? Does anyone think that 's appropriate ? That the has something that 's contagious . Do you say , oh we 're not going to take care of that kids and he can get the rest of the , the rest of the classroom sick ? So , undocumented people , last I heard , are human beings . ' And I am going to fight for comprehensive immigration reform and a path toward citizenship . But certainly , in the mean time I believe in the right of health care for all people -- all people -- and that includes the undocumented . ' Sanders and his democratic socialist policies opened the debate . The subject was easily buried by troubling questions of racial discrimination that enveloped several top-tier candidates . South Bend , Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg was one of the most composed candidates on the stage throughout the night . His biggest moment came when he was asked about a police-related shooting in his hometown - a topic he 's struggled to address in the past . On June 16 , a South Bend police officer shot and killed 54-year-old black resident Eric Logan while responding to reports that a man was breaking into cars with a knife . The officer 's body camera was turned off at the time . ' The police force is six percent black in a city that is 26 percent black . Why has that not improved over your two terms as mayor ? ' moderator Chuck Todd asked . Cillizza agreed , writing : ' Buttigieg has lots and lots of natural political ability - and it shone through on Thursday night . ' Analysts agree that South Bend , Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg gave a strong performance . The ever-animated Sen Sanders stayed true to his socialist platform throughout the night New York Sen Kristen Gillibrand had a lot to say on Thursday night , but did n't manage to snag any significant soundbites . Marianne Williamson entered into this debate with very little exposure but certainly made an impression - albeit not a great one . The self-help author ' came across as half awake and gave flaky answers while seemingly using a different accent each time she spoke ' , Palmer wrote , noting that she is ' in danger of being the new Ben Carson ' . Cillizza also had some harsh commentary on Williamson , writing : ' Watching the author and spiritual adviser on the debate stage reminded me of my own experience playing high school basketball : Hopelessly out of her league . ' It 's not that Williamson is n't a politician , it 's that she had zero idea how to navigate a crowded debate stage and make her points . It was also problematic that she did n't seem to have any , you know , points . ' Williamson 's best moment came during her closing statement when she said : ' Mr President , if you 're listening , I want you to hear me please : You have harnessed fear for political purposes , and only love can cast that out . So I , sir , I have a feeling you know what you 're doing . I 'm going to harness love for political purposes . I will meet you on that field , and sir , love will win . ' Social media was flooded with dozens of memes inspired by her performance before the debate even ended . The remaining four candidates - Eric Swalwell , John Hickenlooper , Andrew Yang and Michael Bennet - all gave less memorable performances . Swalwell 's biggest moment came when he called out Biden 's age , noting that he was six years old when the former veep said during a California Democratic Convention speech that it was ' time to pass the torch to a new generation of Americans . ' ' Joe Biden was right when he said that 32 years ago . He is still right today , ' 38-year-old Swalwell said . Biden replied that at age 76 , ' I 'm still holding on to that torch . ' Palmer wrote : ' Swalwell probably gained supporters tonight , if only because he came into the night polling at zero percent . ' Former tech executive Yang had the least amount of speaking time at two minutes and 56 seconds , but he drew attention on social media for his decision to forgo a neck tie . ' John Hickenlooper probably did n't help himself . Andrew Yang might as well not have been there . This field is too darn large , ' Palmer lamented . He added : ' This night was ugly enough , you could argue that Elizabeth Warren won tonight 's debate by virtue of not having been in it . ' Biden 's praise for segregationists followed him to the Democratic presidential debate on Thursday evening and exploded into a racial controversy that could put a huge dent in his candidacy after Harris lectured him on busing . Harris , who is Jamaican-American , inserted herself into a discussion on the thorny topic , saying : ' As the only black person on this stage , I would like to speak , on the issue of race . ' She said it was ' hurtful ' that Biden had praised two notorious , Democratic segregationists who he served with in the Senate in the 1970s . One , James Eastland , from Mississippi , called African-Americans ' flesh eaters ' ; the other , Herman Talmadge , ran for the Senate on a pledge to stop blacks and whites eating together in the Capitol itself . Biden revealed at a private fundraising event that Eastland ' did n't call me boy , ' and said of their time in the Senate : ' At least there was some civility . ' It was hurtful to hear you talk about the reputations of two United States senators who built their reputations and career on the segregation of race in this country . ' - Kamala Harris to Joe Biden Harris confronted Biden about the remarks and his stance in the ' 70s against busing encourage racial integration in schools -- he worked with the two segregationists to try to prevent federal imposition of the policy . She told him : ' I do not believe you are a racist . And I agree with you , when you commit yourself to the importance of finding common ground . ' But I also believe -- and it 's personal , and I was actually very -- it was hurtful , to hear you talk about the reputations of two United States senators who built their reputations and career on the segregation of race in this country , ' she said . In a terse exchange that had her starring down the stage at the 76-year-old senator who represented Delaware , she reminded him that she was a beneficiary of busing . ' And it was not only that , but you also worked with them to oppose busing . And , you know , there was a little girl in California who was part of the second class to integrate her public schools , and she was bused to school every day . ' And that little girl was me . So I will tell you that on this subject , it can not be an intellectual debate among Democrats . We have to take it seriously . We have to act swiftly . As Attorney General of California , I was very proud to put in place a requirement that all my special agents would wear body cameras and keep those cameras on . ' Biden ' s praise for segregationists followed him to the Democratic presidential debate on Thursday evening and exploded into a racial controversy that could sink his candidacy after Kamala Harris lectured him on busing Harris expanded on her point after the debate in an interview with MSNBC host Chris Matthews on a set in the spin room . She told him , ' If those men , those segregationists had had their way , I would not be a member of the United States Senate and I certainly would not be a serious candidate for President of the United States . ' And so the harm that they did and that they attempted to do because frankly they built not only their careers but their reputation off of that , which is their quest to ensure the segregation of the races , ' she said . Harris added , ' Had they their way , there 's so much that would not have happened . Lester Holt would not have been asking questions on that stage . Barack Obama would not have been in the position to appoint Joe Biden Vice President of the United States . ' So the consequences of their actions were very real and on the shoulders of a history in our country of really a very bad , awful , dark , dangerous and lethal time . So , but I have to tell you , Chris , I otherwise have a great deal of respect for Joe Biden . I , you know , I do not believe he 's a racist . But his perspective on those senators was something that was hurtful , and it had consequences . ' She said , ' It is a real emotion that a child feels . ' I have to speak truth about it . The consequences are not only about what is wrong morally and legally ... but the pain is very real , emotionally . ' Still , she claimed she has a ' great deal of respect ' for Biden as an elder statesman . ' I told a story tonight that is first hand and is about an experience that I had . And it was through the lens of a personal experience that I have an opinion about what he said about people who have lived a life of of segregation and or segregation and race segregation , ' she told TV cameras in the spin room . ' And so that is the conversation I was having . ' Biden was nearly out of a hole he dug for himself last week at a donor function , when he said disagreed with senators who opposed civil rights , but at least they were able to move legislation . He claimed that one of the men ' never called me " boy , " he always called me " son " ' in remarks that were ripped by Sen. Cory Booker as racially insensitive . Claiming his comments had been taken out of context , Biden refused to apologize for the remarks . Harris would not let him off that easily . She directed stinging commentary on her own racial history at the former vice president who served the first African-American president and regularly touts their relationship . Biden replied , ' It 's a mischaracterization , my position across the board , I did not praise racists . That is not true , number one . Number two , if we want to have this campaign litigated on who supports civil rights and whether I did or not , I 'm happy to do that . ' I was a public defender -- I did n't become a prosecutor . I came out and I left a good law firm to become a public defender , when in fact , when in fact my city was in flames because of the assassination of Dr. King , number one . ' Now number two , as the Vice President of the United States , I worked with a man who in fact , we worked very hard to see to it we dealt with these issues in a major , major way . He claimed : ' The fact is that -- in terms of busing , the busing -- I never -- you would have been able to go to school , the same exact way , because it was a local decision made by your City Council . ' Biden told her , ' The bottom line here is , look , everything I 've done in my career , I ran because of civil rights , I continue to think we have to make fundamental changes in civil rights . And those civil rights , by the way , include , not only African Americans , but the LGBT community . ' He claimed later , to MSNBC , that Harris misrepresented his positions . Deputy campaign manager Kate Bedingfield said she was ' satisfied with the outcome of the debate ' after DailyMail.com asked if she was ' satisfied with the outcome of the exchange ' with Harris . ' I would say we were satisfied with the outcome of the debate . I think the vice president made his case . I think he spoke with conviction . I think he spoke with passion about the future of the country . I think he laid out specific plans and offered a clear vision for the kind of leadership that he would offer . ' I think as he said going into the debate , he was not going to engage in personal back and forth . He did n't with Sen Harris , ' she said . MARIANNE WILLIAMSON 'S BIZARRE PERFORMANCE Author and spiritual guru Marianne Williamson has confused viewers as well as attracted new fans with her bizarre performance at the Democratic presidential primary debate . In a memorable moment , Williamson declared that her first act as president would be to call the Prime Minister of New Zealand and declare the United States a better country to raise children . ' Girlfriend , you are so on , ' Williamson said she would tell Prime Minister Jacinda Arden , who has said that New Zealand is the best place in the world to raise a child . Relegated to the outside left podium , Williamson did n't speak for the first 30 minutes of the debate , until jumping into an argument about healthcare policy . Williamson confusingly dismissed the other candidates ' health policy positions as ' superficial fixes ' and said that President Donald Trump won without a plan just by repeating ' Make America Great Again . ' She went on to say that Democrats need to ' go deeper ' and that ' chemicals ' are to blame for many health problems in the U.S. In her concluding statement , Williamson declared that she was going to ' harness love for political purposes ' to defeat Trump . Her unusual performance drew did however draw praise on social media , where many compared her to a ' Wine Aunt ' with ' healing crystal energy . ' ' If the standard for the candidate is who you would want to split box wine with , Marianne Williamson won , ' one Twitter user wrote . ' Marianne Williamson is all of my mom 's friends when the wine kicks in , ' wrote another . ' When asked why they voted for President Marianne Williamson , more than 30% of Americans said that she was the kind of woman they could go to a wine bar with , ' another quipped . Singer Katy Perry felt a kindred spirit in Williamson , writing : ' not gon na lie i sound like Marianne Williamson after a few glasses of red . ' Williamson 's signature campaign proposal is a call for $100 billion in reparations for slavery to be distributed over 10 years , though she has also thrown out $200 and $500 billion as possible reparations figures . Democratic presidential hopeful US author Marianne Williamson speaks during the second Democratic primary debate of the 2020 presidential campaign season NIGHT ONE RECAP The first night of the first Democratic debate took place Wednesday with New Jersey Sen Cory Booker , former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Juli ? n Castro , New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio , former Maryland Rep John Delaney , Hawaii Rep Tulsi Gabbard , Washington Gov Jay Inslee , Minnesota Sen Amy Klobuchar , former Texas Rep Beto O'Rourke , Ohio Rep Tim Ryan and Massachusetts Sen Elizabeth Warren taking the stage . Immigration politics exploded to the front-burner as the presidential hopefuls took turns blasting President Trump in the wake of the deaths of a Salvadoran man and his two-year-old daughter , who drowned trying to cross the Rio Grande . Wednesday 's debate was the most bilingual in American history , with three candidates speaking Spanish on stage . O'Rourke gave his first answer that way , befuddling much of the TV audience and drawing a side-eye look from Booker -- who later joined in the Espa ? ol himself . Castro limited his Spanish to a single line in his closing statement : Despite being the only Latino on the stage , he is n't a fluent Spanish speaker . TV viewers were enraged by technical glitches that drove the NBC broadcast to premature commercial breaks as microphones in the control room were switched on while moderators asked questions about gun control . Pundits crowned Warren , Booker and Castro the winners of the night , while O'Rourke was widely deemed the loser . Watching from Air Force One on his way to the G-20 Summit in Japan , Trump made his dissatisfaction with the entire night clear by tweeting : ' BORING !

Marketing automation is all the rage , which is unsurprising given that it takes the hassle out of planning , scheduling and synchronising complex marketing campaigns . Sick of scheduling targeted social media campaigns and messages yourself ? Need to send a batch of emails to your biggest clients ? Let marketing automation software take care of it .

As with most things in life , you 're unlikely to achieve without a goal to strive towards . The same goes for marketing automation . So , take time to work out and actively define your objectives before investing in marketing automation tech . Do you want to focus on your email marketing strategy ? Or is social something that needs slimlining ? The more considered your approach , the better your results . Even after defining your goals , it 's important to go slow in the rollout phase . Do n't try to do everything at once when it comes to marketing automation ! Spend time running some A/B tests and figure out if your aforementioned goals are being achieved and , most importantly , how . Not everything will work for everyone , nor can you figure it all out on paper beforehand . Marketing automation can be ... overwhelming at first . It 's important to make @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of what it entails , why it 's important and what you 're hoping to achieve . So , endeavour to dedicate some precious meeting minutes to explaining your new strategies and software and make sure everyone is working towards a common goal . Congratulations ! Your marketing automation strategy is going well , you 've figured out how best to use it ( for now ) and it 's giving great results . Now 's the time to dig into the data your software will likely be throwing up and capitalise on it . Does one big client respond particularly well to a certain technique ? Double down on that . Instead of sending email after email or prepping endless social posts , dig into the data and personalise your marketing further . Now you 've freed up plenty of time in your daily schedule with marketing automation , it 's time to make use of it .

But it 's worth keeping in mind that nuance is needed when using this software -- make sure your content is n't the same old , same old for everyone . However , that 's not to say that once you have marketing automation up and running within your organisation that you can just ... forget about it . Sure , you can dedicate your time to bigger picture problems , but it 's always worth staying on top of your strategies and optimising when and where possible .

You 'll still need to do the heavy lifting when it comes to generating leads . However , your marketing automation can then help you work to maximise those leads . Marketing automation might seem like it 's only useful for the , well , marketing team . But sales and marketing should go hand-in-hand and marketing automation strategies , when done right , can nurture that . For example , if a sale is n't quite ready to be closed , you can use marketing automation to strategically target that client and , hopefully , lead to a sale . Once you get a taste of the good life , it can be easy to want everything on a timer . Sadly , it 's not possible ( or wise ) to automate everything , because sometimes you just need the personal ( rather than pre-programmed ) touch @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ automation line there . Are you thinking about implementing marketing automation for your business ? Hopefully the above steps will prove helpful ! Or maybe you 're just getting started in marketing ?

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'An ACL injury' (NP subject) + 'ruled' (V1) + 'the 26-year-old midfielder' (NP object) + 'out of playing in France this year' (VP2[-ing] predicate). It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, as the injury prevented the midfielder from playing. The verb 'ruled' can be classified under exerting force or pressure, fitting one of the categories of verbs that appear in the V1 slot. The NP object 'the 26-year-old midfielder' is a causee who is prevented from participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'playing in France this year'. Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

For the second year running , an England team is storming into the semi-finals of a World Cup with the hopes of a nation behind them . The question now is whether the 2019 FIFA Women 's World Cup squad can surpass their male counterparts by making it into the final or even - whisper it - bringing football home at last . And if they do manage it , players from the North East will have formed a huge part of that effort . Seven of the team 's players have strong links to the region , all having played at Sunderland AFC early in their career , with some of the squad 's most vital talent calling our part of the world home . World Cup commentator Jacqui Oatley on Thursday described the region as a " hot-bed " of talent , tweeting in praise of the " top players in this England squad from the North East " . So who are the women of the region whose talents we should be celebrating ? Growing up in County Durham , Houghton was the only girl to play on the football @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ she was hooked . The centre back began her career at Sunderland , before moving to Leeds . Now 31 , she captains not only England but Manchester City , and holds 110 international caps . That 's certainly an impressive number , but it 's surpassed by teammate Jill Scott , whose 13-year England career has netted her 137 caps . And on June 23 , the 32-year-old Manchester City midfielder broke a remarkable record during her team 's clash with Cameroon , becoming the first person ever to make 18 World Cup appearances for England . That took her past goalkeeper Peter Shilton 's previous record of 17 , and earned her congratulations from the national legend . He told her : " I 'd held this record for almost 30 years so you should be extremely proud many congratulations - keep going . " Sunderland-born Scott studied at Gateshead College as a teenager , and also began her career playing for SAFC 's women 's side . At the start of this year 's tournament , she spoke @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ family in the North East will be watching her play - and her desire to progress in the tournament in the hope of giving them the chance to travel to France to watch her in a world cup final . Lucy Bronze of England scores her team 's third goal during the 2019 FIFA Women 's World Cup France Quarter Final match between Norway and England ( Image : Getty Images ) The North East is also the birthplace of a footballer described this week by her manager as " the best player in the world " . The performance which made Northumberland 's own Lucy Bronze player of the match in England 's 3-0 victory over Norway also saw manager Phil Neville heap praise on the full-back , whose impressive long-range goal was the last of the match . He said : " I think we 've seen tonight Lucy Bronze is the best player in the world , without a shadow of a doubt -- with her athleticism and quality . There 's no player like her in the world . I played full-back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on Holy Island and then Alnwick , like many female players Bronze had to travel to find teams where she could play having been told she could no longer play in the boys ' team . As she kicked a ball about on Alnwick 's football pitches as a child , already building up her prodigious skill , little could she have known that the person playing with her would end up on the same England team one day . Beth Mead and Lucy Staniforth ( Image : Getty Images ) Teammate Lucy Staniforth also hails from the North East , growing up in Alnwick and making her first appearance for SAFC 's first team at the age of just 16 . The midfielder , 26 , now playing for Birmingham City , is still close to her former playing partner - speaking to Chronicle Live , Lucy Bronze 's mum Diane spoke of how the York-born Staniforth 's parents would " look in on " her own daughter and keep her informed as to how she was doing when they were able to attend international @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Defender Demi Stokes , from South Shields , is another North East talent who first cut her teeth at Sunderland .

Whitby-born Beth Mead , 24 , started out at Middlesbrough before making the move to Sunderland . Although Mead turned professional upon Sunderland 's promotion , she was determined to finish her final year at university , juggling training around study as a 19-year-old . Carly Telford of England celebrates after teammate Jodie Taylor scores their team 's first goal during the 2019 FIFA Women 's World Cup France group D match between England and Argentina ( Image : Getty Images ) Finally , there 's goalie Carly Telford .

Now playing for Arsenal , Nobbs grew up in County Durham , studying at Sedgefield Community College and joining the Sunderland centre of excellence at the age of eight . She appeared in the England Under-15 squad at the age of 12 and led the under-17s to the World Cup semi-final at just 15. |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It mentions 'came out of boarding school', which is a different construction where 'out of' is followed by a noun phrase ('boarding school') rather than a VP[-ing] predicate. There is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

In fact it feels a bit like everyone 's talking about the World Cup -- without even bothering to mention sometimes that it 's the women 's World Cup . Imagine that ! Why the sudden interest in women 's football ? I 've heard more than one person ask . Well , it does n't take a genius to spot the cause and effect -- put women 's football on to BBC TV and people will not only watch it , they will bloody love watching it , and realise the level of talent possessed by the likes of Ellen White , Lucy Bronze and the rest of the team . It strikes me that exposure and access is the only reason that we as a nation have cared so much less about women 's football than men 's in recent years . In fact , I know this to be true . You know how ? Maybe you already know this too but just to recap , this is n't the first time that our nation has fallen in love with women 's football . Cast your minds back a hundred @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fit enough to play football had been sent to fight on the front line . Back at home , it turned out that women were completely able to do so much more than stay at home looking after children . In fact they were able to not only take on the men 's jobs -- they also took their places on the football field . And people loved watching them . Women 's football was absolutely huge during World War One , drawing crowds of up to 53,000 even after the war had ended . These pioneering women managed to achieve phenomenal success and recognition , and they did it at a time when such a thing would have seemed nigh on impossible . They defied society , challenged convention , cocked a snook at tradition and expectation -- and changed the mindset of a nation by taking women 's football to unprecedented heights , all within a couple of years . And they did it because the men were away fighting -- and so they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Norway Is challenged by Lioness Lucy Bronze of England during the Women 's World Cup Quarter FinalCredit : Getty Images - Getty And then women 's football here disappeared completely . Why ? The men came back from the frontline -- and they wanted their jobs and their football back . And the women ? They were expected to go back to the domestic realm .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It also does not exhibit either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a personal experience of coming out of boarding school and the resulting independence, which is unrelated to the transitive out of -ing construction.

In fact it feels a bit like everyone 's talking about the World Cup -- without even bothering to mention sometimes that it 's the women 's World Cup . Imagine that ! Why the sudden interest in women 's football ? I 've heard more than one person ask . Well , it does n't take a genius to spot the cause and effect -- put women 's football on to BBC TV and people will not only watch it , they will bloody love watching it , and realise the level of talent possessed by the likes of Ellen White , Lucy Bronze and the rest of the team . It strikes me that exposure and access is the only reason that we as a nation have cared so much less about women 's football than men 's in recent years . In fact , I know this to be true . You know how ? Maybe you already know this too but just to recap , this is n't the first time that our nation has fallen in love with women 's football . Cast your minds back a hundred @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fit enough to play football had been sent to fight on the front line . Back at home , it turned out that women were completely able to do so much more than stay at home looking after children . In fact they were able to not only take on the men 's jobs -- they also took their places on the football field . And people loved watching them . Women 's football was absolutely huge during World War One , drawing crowds of up to 53,000 even after the war had ended . These pioneering women managed to achieve phenomenal success and recognition , and they did it at a time when such a thing would have seemed nigh on impossible . They defied society , challenged convention , cocked a snook at tradition and expectation -- and changed the mindset of a nation by taking women 's football to unprecedented heights , all within a couple of years . And they did it because the men were away fighting -- and so they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Norway Is challenged by Lioness Lucy Bronze of England during the Women 's World Cup Quarter FinalCredit : Getty Images - Getty And then women 's football here disappeared completely .

The 2018/19 Championship season will not be one Andy Rinomhota forgets in a hurry . It was a journey which saw the 22-year-old Reading midfielder start the season with the club 's U23s squad but finish it as the first team player of the year . Despite the team 's well-documented struggles on and off the field , Rinomhota was the shining beacon throughout not just in terms of his eye-catching performances week in , week out , but the fact he was a young player who had come through the ranks and ' made it ' as a professional footballer . He would give fellow academy products - Danny Loader and Michael Olise to name but two - the inspiration to make the most of their chance in the Reading first team . Stepping out onto the pitch at Madejski Stadium would have felt a world away for Rinomhota from when he was slugging it out in the Wessex Premier League with AFC Portchester , the club Reading bought him in from in April 2015 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by Steve Clarke , after a recommendation from Graeme Rix - then Portchester 's first-team boss - who he knew from his days working at Chelsea . Rinomhota caught the eye of Rix after just a few games and was subsequently sent to have a trial at Reading and the rest , as they say , is history . To get more of an insight into the player 's experience before his time with Royals , getreading caught up with Phil Jeynes , the youth chairman at AFC Portchester to chronicle the midfielder 's journey from a ' wiry little whippet ' in the non-league to an accomplished Championship athlete . " Andy joined us right from cr ? che age - so under sixes - as a local lad , " explained Jeynes . " His family are very local and we were his nearest team so he was brought along by his mum who is football mad . " She travels to most of the games and when he played in the first team for Portchester she was an ever present at all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at six years old - not because she thought he was a special talent but just because she wanted to get him out playing football . " We were his first club and Simon Woods was his first coach . " Andy played most of his career in midfield - he was always a kid that had a good engine to use the clich ? and could get around the place . " Certainly as he developed with AFC Portchester he was much more of an attacking midfielder than he is playing now for Reading . " For us he was this mercurial player in the midfield that could dribble past people and had really good pace around him . " He could get forward and although he was n't a particularly prolific goalscorer he was someone who could make things happen in the final third . " In all honesty I do n't think he was earmarked as a particularly prolific talent as a youngster , he certainly was n't one of those which the likes of Portsmouth and Southampton @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the case . " I think he had one season which ended in injury with the Portsmouth academy which could have been in his early teens . " With the injury he came back to us and did n't go back there so he was n't one around the club which people were really talking about moving onto the professional game . " Rinomhota 's progression through the different age ranks is far from unique at any level in the game . The nature of the midfielder 's quiet , unassuming rise , however , will be of little surprise to Reading fans who witnessed any of his 28 games last season . His simple yet confident displays brought some much-needed solidarity and composure to the side which was scrapping in the lower echelons of the Championship . Rinomhota quickly caught the eye in the Reading midfield ( Image : Get Reading ) Rinomhota quickly established himself as a fans ' favourite and he was swiftly seen as one of the first names on the teamsheet on a matchday . Jeynes said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ polite . " I remember him when he broke through into the first team - that would have been when he was around 16 or 17 years old . " The team that had come through the Portchester youth system was not a particularly stellar team - it was n't winning leagues or cups left right and centre . There were n't academies sniffing around it . " But Andy had always been spoken about as a star player in that team so when he came into the adult set-up at U18s , reserve and then the first team he was quite quickly spotted by our first-team manager ( Rix ) and given a chance in the first team . " There was a very quick transition from being a slightly promising 16 year old to a pretty regular first-team player . " We do n't get huge crowds but there is a core of supporters and family members always watching and he was always someone who would come over and say hello and spend a few minutes talking to the kids asking what they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who had a big personality at all - he was n't shouting or celebrating when the side won and was n't particularly demonstrative at all . Rinomhota , who qualifies to play for Zimbabwe through his father , quickly adapted to the rigours of the Championship having made his league debut back in September . He secured his first start in a Reading shirt in November against Bristol City and from then , never looked back . And while he is not a player who will make last-ditch tackles to prevent a goal or score them at the other end , his ability to get around the field , create something out of nothing and do the basics so efficiently and effectively have made him an invaluable member of the side . Royals have a lot to thank Rix for , having swiftly identified him as someone who could play at a higher level than Portchester . And Rinomhota 's tireless , eye-catching displays which were once for the south coast side are now what Reading are reaping the rewards from . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the youth section , " said Jeynes . " And then he transferred into the senior section and Graeme Rix was our manager at the time . " He probably saw him play a game for the reserves and very quickly said this guy has got the goods to be in the first team . " Albeit he was quite a small 17 year old and there was definitely some concern around some of us putting this little lad into the Wessex Premier League , which can be pretty physical at times . " But very quickly he had some starring performances for the first team - just the way he could ride a challenge , his composure on the ball , his engine in terms of his fitness - he was never out of breath , he was effortless around the pitch and could make things happen . " He was a very simple player albeit he could dribble well and beat a man - the biggest things was the simplicity of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ creating moments around the pitch . " Very quickly Rix was saying this lad could go further than the Wessex Premier League . " I think he had contact with Steve Clarke at Reading and he suggested he took him for a couple of weeks on trial and I do n't think he ever came back . " All at AFC Portchester have kept a close eye on Rinomhota 's development in Berkshire and Jeynes admits there was an element of surprise at the player 's ascent into the first team . Despite a prolonged period with the U23s , the midfielder did not go out on loan for experience of senior first-team and league football . It was this which made Rinomhota 's adaptability to the Championship - regarded by many as the toughest league in the world - all the more remarkable . Jeynes recalled : " He is a quite a quiet lad and given he was only with us till he was 17 he did n't get a chance to get involved with any antics off the pitch . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " The most obvious thing people remember about him , besides his natural ability , are his mum and dad . " His mum is a much louder personality than he is - she was always one of the more vocal supporters in an extremely positive way . " She lit up the terraces whenever Andy was playing and still comes down to watch Portchester if she 's not watching Andy . She has become more of a fixture of the club now . " We certainly were n't surprised he had a successful trial and got into the U21 set up at Reading . Andy Rinomhota during his days at AFC Portchester ( Image : AFC Portchester ) " We were definitely surprised how quickly he went through the U21s and U23s and into the first team . " I 've been to watch him a few times at Reading and the big surprise for me was how different he looks physically . " Clearly that 's part of maturing as he becomes an adult but also the maturing that goes along @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not the wiry little whippet we had playing in the Wessex Premier League - he looks a consummate athlete these days . " Personally I 'm a little bit surprised with the position he has ended up in as a holding midfielder and breaking up play because for us he was much more involved at the other end of the field . " In terms of being surprised he has made a good impression and settled well - absolutely not . " His attitude was just first class - there was never an angry word , never a moan at the referee or a sulk when he got put on the bench - he was absolutely positive , polite , respectful , dedicated and even though we were an amateur club he was a model professional . " I was n't close to the dressing room when he came into the first team but you can imagine at the level we 're playing at there are a few guys who have been around the league or higher for a decade or more and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a quiet personality being able to make an impact . " That spoke volumes there was no dissent in the ranks when he got put into the team because his performances were so impressive . " They recognised the ability he had . If your teammates who have been there , seen it and done it , if they and the manger are seeing what he contributes very quickly the supporters are able to latch onto that and say the kid is worth looking at . " I guess that 's the bit that surprised us - given the competitiveness there must have been in the U21 and U23 ranks for him to have stood out so quickly and then there was a change of manager through the season ( Paul Clement 's sacking ) and there 's always a question mark over what the new manager is going to think . " Will he want a more experienced stalwart particularly in that difficult position on the pitch ? " But the fact he went straight @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to how good he must look in training and what other players must think about him . " Similarly , he had an injury which kept him out and there was some reasonable form when he was off injured but he got straight back into the first team . " That 's the bit that has pleased us more than surprised us - to see on social media the Twitter polls that come out after games and to see him feature in them - there was one point where he featured three or four games back to back . " He was winning and you start to realise he 's more than just a luxury player he 's putting in shifts . " |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'ruled out of making the top four' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

3 Min Read ( Reuters ) - West Indies have been knocked out of contention for a Cricket World Cup semi-final spot but the team are already looking ahead to the future with a young core coming to the fore , head coach Floyd Reifer said on Sunday . West Indies have not won a single game at the tournament since beating Pakistan in their opening match and were ruled out of making the top four after a 125-run loss to India last week left them ninth in the standings . The Caribbean side suffered narrow defeats to Australia and New Zealand in the group stage and Reifer said the squad have had frank discussions on their performances so far , with an eye on finishing strongly with two more games to go . " Yes , we 're out of the World Cup but there is still a lot of cricket to play after the World Cup , " Reifer told reporters ahead of Monday 's match against Sri Lanka . " It 's important for us @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ formula going forward ; it 's important for us to play this game as hard as possible . We want to create that winning culture , it has to start from somewhere . " We 're going to approach every game in a professional manner . We had a long conversation in the dressing room , we did a lot of soul-searching . It 's important for us ... to put up performances , even at the back end of the World Cup . " Despite a disappointing campaign in England and Wales , Reifer said West Indies cricket had a bright future after a number of youngsters staked their claim at the tournament to be permanent fixtures in the one-day international squad . " The future of our cricket is good , " Reifer added . " We have a lot of young guys here . ( Shai ) Hope , ( Nicholas ) Pooran , ( Shimron ) Hetmyer , Oshane Thomas . Sheldon Cottrell had a very good World Cup . " We have young John Campbell , he was injured from early @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in these youngsters that going forward we can bring West Indies cricket back to where it belongs at the top . " Yes , it is unfortunate we did n't get to the final four in this competition but going forward I 'm happy from what I have seen . " |

Council chiefs in Dorset believe they are better equipped to deal with the funding crisis than other authorities .

The numbers of children in care and dementia cases have both increased rapidly over the last few years . We have an increasing ageing population and with more people living longer , the number of people living with dementia is predicted to rise further by 2030 .

Responding to the LGA 's concerns , Cllr Tony Ferrari , Portfolio Holder for Finance , Commercial and Assets at Dorset Council said : " Dorset faces similar increases in the cost of social care to other councils across the country . The numbers of children in care and dementia cases have both increased rapidly over the last few years . We have an increasing ageing population and with more people living longer , the number of people living with dementia is predicted to rise further by 2030 . " We recognised these trends and took actions to manage our situation . This was one of the key drivers of the formation of the new unitary authorities in Dorset ( Dorset Council and BCP Council ) . We have moved expenditure from councillors and senior management into front line services . " This means that although we have pressure from the cost @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , we are better equipped than many councils to deal with this situation .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'shot out of roosting spots' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate, and there is no NP object that functions as a causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The birds , named Charlie and Adam , were in the area of the Auchnafree Estate , near Dunkeld in Perthshire , on April 18 . Neither birds nor tags have been traced . Springwatch presenter Packham said : " We ca n't prove that harm has come to Adam and Charlie , nor who might have been responsible -- but we can look at the circumstances , look at the science , look at the wider evidence and draw plausible conclusions . " The Scottish Government has already acknowledged that illegal raptor persecution is an ongoing problem . " How many more golden eagles do we have to lose before that same Government takes effective action ? " The eagles hatched at separate nests in the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park in 2017 and 2018 . The Scottish Raptor Study Group warned us at the time of the tagging that the bird could be targeted . Some have previously been poisoned and some are stalked at night with infra red imaging , then shot out of roosting spots . We were told : " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ giving off a tracking signal showing he is flourishing for years . Or the signal might suddenly stop , which could mean he has been shot or perhaps poisoned . " In March last year , a two-year-old eagle became the 12th to vanish over a " black hole " near the Northern Monadhliath mountains in Inverness-shire in seven years . " Adam " was named and adopted by Green MSP Andy Wightman , who said he was " shocked and devastated " to hear it had gone missing . The owners of Auchnafree Estate have joined an appeal for information . A Scottish Government review of grouse moor management practices is expected to be published in the coming months . Max Wiszniewski , of Revive , the coalition for grouse moor reform , said : " Scotland 's grouse moors are a hotbed of criminality from raptor persecution to illegal snaring and trapping .

The number of adults vaping has risen by 70 per cent in just two years , with one in four children trying e-cigarettes , official data shows . The NHS data shows the number of adults and children smoking has dropped to a record low , while vaping is on the rise . In total , 6.3 per cent of adults are current users of e-cigarettes , the figures for 2016 show - up from 3.7 per cent in 2014 . And 25 per cent of children aged between 11 and 15 have tried e-cigarettes - a rise from 22 per cent in two years . Public Health England said vaping is now the most popular and effective way for smokers to quit . Chief executive Duncan Selbie said : " This is really positive news in the battle against the nation 's biggest killer . Smoking in England is in terminal decline , with the lowest number of smokers ever and a smoke-free generation now in sight . " The figures , for 2016 , show just six @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reported they were current smokers , down from 22 per cent in 1996 .

Adults aged 35 to 49 were most likely to use e-cigarettes ( 8.1 per cent ) , while adults aged 60 and over were the least likely ( 4.1 per cent ) . Martin Dockrell , PHE 's tobacco control lead , said : " Vaping remains the most popular way for smokers to quit and already this year several major studies have found that it is twice as effective as nicotine replacement therapy . So it 's unsurprising that more smokers are using e-cigarettes to quit and stay quit . " This data shows that vaping in England remains a route out of smoking , with quitting tobacco the most common reason for adult e-cigarette use . While not completely risk free , there is now a strong international consensus that vaping is far less harmful than smoking . " |

As the Government changes the rules on parole for murderers who fail to reveal the whereabouts of victims bodies , we speak to Merseyside mum , Marie McCourt about her 30 year long campaign , Helen 's Law . " If a child has stolen something , they should be made to give it back and say sorry , or they will never learn , " says Marie . " In the same way , a killer should own up . They should show remorse and give back the body of someone they have taken ... they should be made to face up to what they 've done . I 'm no academic , I 'm not a clever person . It just seems like common sense . " Marie 's daughter Helen @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from work in Liverpool on February 9 , 1988 . Ian Simms , the landlord of a pub just yards from her home in Billinge , was convicted of her murder and sentenced to life in prison -- but he has never revealed where he left Helen 's body . Although they fall short of her desire for ' no body , no parole ' legislation , Marie has welcomed new Government rules which will make it harder for murderers who fail to reveal the whereabouts of their victims ' bodies to be released . The changes , dubbed Helen 's Law after a long campaign by Marie to stop the release of her daughter 's killer , Ian Simms , will , she says make a huge difference . Marie explained : " Up until now parole boards have only had to follow guidelines . Now they will be bound by law to consider the terrible toll crimes like these take on their families when deciding whether to let killers out of jail . " Helen 's Law will force parole boards to take an offender @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ when they apply for parole . " It means killers who do n't co-operate could spend longer in jail once they have served their minimum tariff , and it might mean parents like me wo n't have to suffer like we do -- like I have . " It 's not what I 'd hoped -- but it 's something . It 's more than we had , more than I 'd expected , and that 's amazing . " Marie , chairperson of SAMM ( Support After Murder and Manslaughter ) Merseyside , has given up hope that Simms , who has enjoyed day release and is being readied for freedom , will ever tell her where her only daughter is . But she will never give up hope that she will one day be found . " I could have had more than 30 years of peace , sadness yes , but peace , had Simms revealed where Helen is . But I 've had 30 years of fighting . " All I wanted was for him to give Helen back to me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ churchyard ; to know she was safe in holy ground and not in an awful place where there could be rats -- a horrific thought for me -- and where he , should he be released , can dance on her grave . " I have never been able to give her a last farewell , because he has denied me that . But I ca n't give up hope . " Part of me thinks I will be like Winnie Johnson , whose son Keith Bennett was killed by Moors Murderers Ian Brady and Myra Hindley , who spent a lifetime looking for his body but went to the grave never having found it ; and that breaks my heart . When Winnie Johnson died I broke down , I could n't take it because I know how important it is to me , and it was to her . " All I could think was that she was now with her son , Keith , and that her torment was over . That could happen to me and of course it 's upsetting . I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gone , I could go to my grave not knowing . But I can only hope and pray that I do n't , and that Helen can be found . " Marie McCourt Marie , who has a deep faith which has given her the courage to cope , does n't think Ian Simms will ever tell her , but she believes it may happen , that someone may find something , or that someone may remember something that takes her to her . Until then , she finds comfort in Helen 's law . Not just because it means killers whose victims are n't found could spend longer in jail unless they reveal where they are . But because something positive will have come out of something so awful . " Helen 's name will be on the statute books which means she will never be forgotten and , because of her , innocent families may be spared the torture of not being able to say goodbye to their loved ones . I hope Helen 's Law can be passed in time to help keep @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ finally turning towards victims and their families rather than the rights of cold and callous criminals . That alone has taken a weight off my shoulders . Helen 's Law wo n't bring her home but it may help others and , at last , I feel like I have done something , that I have n't wasted all my time . I would never have thought I could do it -- but I did it . |

Working families on low wages can not afford to rent privately in 67% of the country , new research from Shelter has revealed . Sharelines " The steep decline in social housing has left a growing number of families caught in a debilitating ' rent-trap ' . " @pollyn1 @shelter #ukhousing In Kensington and Chelsea , where the Grenfell Tower fire took place in June 2017 , working families on low wages would have to spend 127% of their take-home pay to afford average private rents . The research , which is based on one adult working full-time and another part-time , found that there are 218 council areas in England where local families earning a low wage would be forced to spend more than 30% of their salary on rent .

Families may not be able to look after each other if prenuptial agreements become legally binding , the Supreme Court President has warned . Baroness Hale said that pre or post-nuptial agreements that take account only of the situation when they were signed , and not that at the end of a relationship , risk destroying the " social security system of a family " . There have been warnings that a prenup does not predict the future and could leave a spouse - typically a woman - financially disadvantaged if she has for example given up work to raise the family or is left unable to afford a home for herself and their children . Currently English courts make financial provisions dependent on need and taking into account issues such as whether a woman has given up work to raise a family when ruling on a divorce . " The conjugal family is its own little social security system , a private space , separate from the public world , within which the parties are expected to look after @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a speech to the International Centre for Family Law , Policy and Practice . " The more the private family can look after its own , the less the state will have to do so . " She said that " back in the mists of time " when she studied family law " we thought we knew what a family was " but this has evolved over time . Therefore the definition of family has expanded to include among others unmarried parents , same sex couples and single-parents . Despite the changes " there are still striking illustrations of the view that it is the family , rather than the state , who should be supporting its more vulnerable member " , she noted . However , the Supreme Court president warned that " the social security system of the family is facing a number of threats " . She said that the " more threatening " aspects were contained in a bill which is currently before the Commons which would mean pre and post nuptial agreements were binding depending on the conditions @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I question how one size fits all can possibly meet the justice of the case or fulfill the role of the family in shouldering the burdens which it has created rather than placing them upon the state , " Lady Hale said . " I fear that it assumes an equality between the spouses which is simply not there in many , perhaps most , cases . " The Law Commission , on the other hand , has recommended that " parties should not be able to contract out of making provision for needs " . She also questioned the requirements in the Divorce bill to split matrimonial property equally and to limit allow a spouses provision to five years . |

These apocalyptic warnings must be taken at face value and suitable actions taken immediately : Sack every other civil servant today -- just in case these warnings are right . Even if it turns out to be a false alarm no harm will be done as we all know these people do nothing constructive anyway . Robert wrote : Was it ever any different concerning our relationship with the EU ? Time and again , at every major turn , the negative people -- those that suck the life out of anything they touch -- have come out of the woodwork to forecast economic slumps ; shortages of essentials ; rising unemployment ; emergency budgets ; soaring inflation ; world war three ; the end of civilisation and so on , to note some of the saner ramblings of these digital crystal ball-gazing soothsayers . On our referendum to stay in the then Common Market , Peter Shore called them all out well : Whilst another Labour politician , Tony Benn , got it right when observing , at the time , that what was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ laws ? How do we elect them and can we boot them out if we do n't like what they are doing on our behalf ? As he noted , the EU is an undemocratic organisation we would do well to leave : Later the same doom-laden soothsayer pronouncements were made about what would happen if we did n't join the European Exchange Rate Mechanism -- and look what happened after we did , thanks largely to the dripping wet Europhiles in the Conservative party at that time . Then came the demands we join the euro or face economic ruin . To his credit , Gordon Brown scuppered that notion and , as a result , we found ourselves in a position to manage our own currency and way out of the financial crash of 2009 . Which also serves to highlight that economic booms and slumps have far more to do with the workings of financial systems within and between countries and have nothing to do with being part of or not part of some supra-national bureaucratic empire-building exercise . Though , obviously , for some @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has brought extreme economic hardship because that EU-wide currency is not a financial/currency system that operates to their benefit . Unfortunately for Gordon Brown he then blotted his copybook by letting banks get away with reckless lending practices and , worst of all , signing away our ability to make large amounts of our own laws by putting his scribble on the Lisbon Treaty . That is what our vote to leave the EU is all about -- taking back the control that the likes of Gordon Brown , and others before , signed away without even giving us a say as to whether or not we wanted unelected , unaccountable bureaucrats overseas , in cahoots with our own unelected , and almost completely unaccountable , EU-worshipping Whitehall civil service making up the rules that we have to live by .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('shutting the press out of everything' and 'shutting the public out of everything'). It involves a prevention interpretation, where the action of shutting prevents the press and the public from being involved in everything. The verb 'shutting' implies exerting force or pressure, fitting one of the semantic categories for V1. The NP objects ('the press', 'the public') function as causees, and the construction allows for the interpretation where the subject (implied 'he') is causing the objects to be excluded from the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate ('everything').

At no stage during this World Cup have I doubted that England would be handed the trophy at Lord 's on Sunday . I might be accused of bias as an England fan and current England player but I have seen everything falling into place for this side . I have always been a logical thinker and everything points to them . They are the best team , the home team , playing in familiar conditions , the recent pattern has been of home teams winning World Cups , they have six guys with over 100 caps , great experience and a real strength in depth . It 's an absolute no-brainer . England are huge favourites to beat New Zealand . There are a number of reasons for that . They have rediscovered form after the slip-ups against Sri Lanka and Australia . They have lost three games at this World Cup , and their results of the last four years say that 's quite a big percentage ... and that they 're not due to lose another one . England are huge favourites to beat New Zealand in the Cricket World Cup final @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ batsmen Jason Roy and Jonny Bairstow are in great form and represent an opening partnership that quite frankly is the best in the world -- ever . To average 70 for the first wicket is breathtaking . Providing starts like that takes all the sting out of the opposition bowling attack and allows the players coming in later in the innings to play with greater fluidity and expression . It also gives me confidence that Jos Buttler has not really fired in the tournament as yet -- because he is the sort of man that does n't go long without taking a game by the scruff of the neck . Jofra Archer and Chris Woakes probably bowled the best 10 overs of their World Cups against Australia this week , as did Adil Rashid . We witnessed the gap in ability between England and New Zealand at Chester-le-Street . Can the Kiwis upset the odds and win the World Cup ? Absolutely . It 's a one-off game of cricket . Chris Woakes is congratulated by his team-mates during the semi-final win over Australia But for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ win the toss on a cloudy morning , for Trent Boult to bowl out of his skin , keeping England to a total low enough for Kane Williamson and Ross Taylor to get them home . Despite possessing such a dangerous batsman in Martin Guptill , I do n't feel New Zealand have the firepower to chase anything between 300 and 320 in a cup final . That means if England continue as they have been they will be too powerful , and will score too heavily to give them a sniff . When I was playing ODI cricket , Lord 's was one of the places you really looked forward going to as a bowler because it always felt like there was something in the pitch or that the overhead conditions were there to help you . And this bowling attack is capable of exploiting any help on offer . Jason Roy and Jonny Bairstow are in great form and the best opening partnership in the world SEMI-FINAL WIN HAS SET UP THE ASHES With the emphatic manner in which they secured Sunday 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the rest of the summer . Australia wo n't have lost many ODIs more convincingly than that . It was an absolute hammering . The game was up when Australia were 14 for 3 . You do n't win from there . Mitchell Starc , the best bowler in the tournament , went at 10 an over for his first five . Do I think they will carry that result into the Ashes ? Probably not because they have some warm-up games first to get their heads around red-ball cricket and they actually had a good tournament , a much better tournament than you would have anticipated from them a year ago . Back then you would n't have envisaged them making the semi-finals . What we saw at Edgbaston was evidence that Jofra Archer is not only a huge talent for the future . He 's a huge talent for right now . To get your first ball on the money like he did to dismiss Aaron Finch lbw was absolutely stunning . Every bowler in the world would talk about nipping it back into Finch @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that -- Wow ! England have put down a marker this summer after their emphatic victory against Australia First ball , you are not sure of your run-up , how you are going to land , whether you will slip , how much the ball is going to seam and swing , how the body will react , how quick the pitch is , how much it will bounce . There are a lot of external things that can push you out of delivering that skill first up . He did it effortlessly . To think he 's played under 20 ODIs and is England 's leading wicket-taker at the World Cup is special . He 's bowled ferociously quickly and with great control . Does that make him an automatic pick for the first Ashes Test ? That 's tricky because it is a different format and I do n't know off the top of my head when he last bowled more than 10 overs in a day .

Phil Scott , the ECB 's strength and conditioning coach , records how many overs a bowler bowls and can almost predict the likeliest time to get injured . It 's called a red-spike . If Jofra has only bowled 10 overs daily for the past year , going up to 25 might turn the body into a danger zone . But hey , winning the Ashes might be worth that risk .

I am averaging 14.6 , with a strike rate of 45 , against left-handers this summer and that 's pretty exciting for me . I 've also been working on different angles at the crease in a bid to reduce the percentage of deliveries batsmen leave off me . At the start of the year that was quite high and I have brought it down considerably . Boxes have been ticked , leading up to what is hopefully the busiest part of my summer . I ca n't control whether I get picked or not , but my aim is to be fit and available for those six Test matches . That 's the commitment I have made to myself . Touch wood , I can do it .

If England can win the World Cup , it might develop interest for other forms of the game . If people see a champion English team it might prick their curiosity on what Test matches are like . This is a chance to impact on a whole new generation . It 's is a huge match for our sport .

I would genuinely love to watch it and campaigned for the ECB to give everyone a day off like they used to in the middle of Test matches . To no avail . If England can win the World Cup , it might develop interest for other forms of the game The biggest nail in my coffin , in fact , was delivered via email on Friday when an invitation from Colin Graves and Tom Harrison , requesting the pleasure of the company of Stuart Broad MBE in the chairman 's suite a Lord 's , dropped in my inbox .

It was a very special feeling and in years to come , because of the way the game is going , being a world champion in Twenty20 will be much bigger than a 50-over one when it comes to achievements . It was a very special feeling winning the ICC T20 World Cup with England back in 2010 We are not quite there yet , though , the one-day game still seems to have the historic grip to it , and Sunday promises to be an experience players will never forget . Singing the national anthem for the final in Barbados back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on a cricket field . Nerves are natural because careers can be defined by days like this . If you drop a catch or miss a run out in a triangular series , no one cares . It 's the big matches like these that matter and how you perform under pressure . This England team will find their way of doing so . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'get' is used intransitively here, and the phrase 'out of spending long periods of time all by herself and in silence' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it seems to be asking about the benefits or results of the action, which is not characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Many people do n't like being alone . They feel lonely . For others , though , it can be a source of ecstasy . The BBC 's Shabnam Grewal spoke to a hermit on the Scottish moors , and learned about an American who turned his back on the world when barely out of his teens . In 1986 , 20-year-old Christopher Knight drove into a forest in rural Maine . He abandoned his car , and taking just some very basic camping supplies , simply walked into the woods . He did n't come out again for 27 years . After getting deliberately lost , Knight eventually found the site that would become his home , a small clearing in the densely wooded area surrounding a lake called North Pond . He stretched some tarpaulin between trees , put up his small nylon tent , and settled down . He was completely hidden , despite being only a few minutes ' walk from one of the hundreds of summer cabins that dotted the area . Image copyrightGetty ImagesImage caption Knight 's camp in the clearing near North Pond Knight survived by breaking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . He only took what he needed - food , cooking fuel , clothes , boots , batteries for torches and a lot of books . He tried to cause as little damage as possible , but the sheer number of break-ins - more than 1,000 over the years , caused a lot of anxiety for some of the cabin owners . Eventually the police set a trap and caught him red-handed . The writer Mike Finkel visited Knight in prison when writing his book , The Stranger in the Woods : The Extraordinary Story of the Last True Hermit . He asked him the obvious question , " Why ? " Why had he turned his back on the world and gone off to live completely alone ? Image copyrightAlamyImage caption North Pond " Chris Knight said he felt very uncomfortable being around other people . Now I had thought at first that there might have been a specific triggering action . ' Did you commit a crime ? Was there something you were embarrassed about ? Was there a specific action ? ' And he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ He said the tug to be alone was like this gravitational force , all his body was saying that he just felt more comfortable by himself . " This tug was so strong that he chose to spend nearly three decades without speaking to a single person . Well , almost . He did speak to one person - he said " Hi " to a hiker who stumbled upon him one day . Despite the bitter Maine winters , when temperatures can plummet to -20C , Knight says he never lit a fire , in case the smoke attracted attention . " There are many aspects of the story of Christopher Knight that boggle the mind , " says Finkel . " If you went one night in the woods of Maine in winter , camping in a thin-walled nylon tent , and did n't light a fire , I 'd be pretty impressed . If you did it for a week I 'd be amazed , and a month would be beyond belief . And this guy did it for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he would instead go to sleep early , around 7pm , and set an alarm for 3am , the coldest time of the night . Then he would get up and walk around till morning , to stay warm . Finkel then asked him what he did to occupy his time . " For a little bit of the time he read some books , did the crossword ... but really that did not occupy the majority of his time . What he did was what you and I might call ' nothing ' . " If the idea of sitting alone , for half an hour , with nothing to do - think of being stuck , alone , in a lift , while your phone is sitting on your desk - is a little terrifying , then try imagining what it would be like confining yourself to a little clearing in the woods , for days , weeks , months , years ... " When I asked Chris Knight to explain this nothingness , he had some pretty interesting things to say , " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a moment , in all 27 years , bored . He was never lonely . He said that he felt almost the opposite of that . He said he felt utterly and intricately connected to everything else in the world . It was difficult for him to tell where his body ended , and the woods began . He said he felt this utter communion with nature and with the outside world . " It sounds like a mystical experience , but one brought on not by psychedelic drugs , but by solitude . Christopher Knight spent seven months in prison for his thefts , and has chosen not to speak to any journalist other than Mike Finkel . But I have lots more questions so I Google hermits and find one happy to chat . Sara Maitland lives in solitude in Scotland in a simple and beautiful house she built herself . From her front door you can see for miles and miles , across empty windswept moorland . She is a Christian , but unlike official Christian hermits ( which still exist ) she is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ many people think being a hermit is selfish . Image copyrightAlamy " If I say I want to sail a small boat all the way around the world and it will take me two years , everyone says , ' Oh how exciting ! ' If I say I want to go and sit in my house and not talk to anyone for two years , they say ' Have you got mental health issues ? ' or ' Why are you so selfish ? ' " She adds , sarcastically : " I joke that wanting to be solitary is bad , sad and mad . It 's immoral because it 's selfish . It 's sad because it 'll make you miserable and it 's mad because you must be a nutcase . " So how does she answer the question why she does it ? What does she get out of spending long periods of time all by herself and in silence ? The answer , she says , is " ecstasy " . " Silence is a place in which I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and most people I know only get it in silence . It is just a fabulous feeling . You know , you 're walking along and quite suddenly you just say , ' Yes ! ' It 's an extraordinarily intense response . Totally joyful . " Although she does n't think it 's only available to the religious , for her , this ecstasy is a connection with God . " I 'm trying to position myself so the gift of mystical prayer is available to me , because actually the presence of God is a terrifically nice experience . I think it 's heaven ! Literally . I think that is what it will be like in heaven , that extraordinary sense of fulfilled intimacy - that feeling that one desires from sex , which is of both being completely yourself and completely with another person , is I think , what prayer does for me . It 's a very particular form of intimate conversation with another , and it just so happens the other is God . " Maitland says you need to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ start to get this feeling , but sometimes other things happen too when you are all alone . In A Book Of Silence she writes about her experiences of solitude , and those of others . She lists the different , but very common experiences of people who spend long periods alone . They include losing your inhibitions , and becoming who you truly are when you 're not being polite or trying to please others . This might mean picking your nose a lot , singing loudly or forgetting to get dressed . Or something she calls " sensory intensification " , which for Maitland included her sense of taste becoming very acute . " Food just tasted fabulous . But it was n't it tasted particularly fabulous in any mysterious sense it just tasted MORE . So porridge tasted of PORRIDGE . But it also affected things like how strongly you experience physical things , like baths . Baths were fabulous - they were n't just some warm water , they became a completely luxurious experience . When you got cold , you got incredibly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " And then she began to hear things . Image copyrightAlamyImage caption Sarah Maitland in a Scottish bothy In fact auditory hallucinations are a common experience for hermits , and she heard the sound of a huge choir , singing in Latin , coming from a small room in the small house she was living in . Maitland enjoyed most of these and other effects of solitude , but only because she had chosen to be there . She thinks someone held against their will , in solitary confinement might , instead of a wonderful choir , hear nasty voices telling them to hurt themselves . Or their sensory intensification might mean the sound of a toilet flushing , becomes painfully loud and intense . In fact , one UN special rapporteur on torture called for solitary confinement to be banned . But even in everyday life , being alone can feel really hard . Maitland notes that people often encounter silence for the first time after a loved-one dies , or when a relationship breaks down . She thinks it would be better @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ positive .

He wanted to live out his life in that small place in the woods , to die there among the trees , leaving nothing behind . " In this age of Facebook and social media , this is a person who literally wanted nothing known , " says Mike Finkel . " He never had a camera . He never kept a journal . Nothing .

A council offered to buy the house of a woman who complained about her noisy neighbour for 10 years in an attempt to put a stop to the repeated reports . The woman - referred to as Miss X in an anonymised report documenting the saga - made numerous complaints for more than a decade about noise nuisance and anti-social behaviour at the house next door to hers . The report , which offers a detailed run down of the case , states : " The council said it offered to buy Miss X 's house from her in 2017 to address the historic issues , which she declined . " The council could not confirm how much they offered to pay for the property . The LGO found that the council were at fault in the way they dealt with the complaints , and ordered the authority to pay the woman ? 150 to recognise the time and trouble in pursuing her complaint . In 2014 , the council served the neighbour - referred to as Ms Y , with an abatement notice after it witnessed a statutory noise @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 48 calls were made to Leicester City Council , 41 of them in just one month . The council visited Miss X once in July 2017 but said the noise was not loud enough for it to take any action . Miss X called the council on further occasions in August 2017 to report noise and in September 2017 , a noise recording machine was installed at her house for two weeks . Officers listened back to the recordings of the two week period and decided the noise was not enough to be considered a statutory nuisance . Between October 2017 and May 2018 , Miss X made 20 further calls to the council reporting noise coming from Ms Y 's house . The council installed the noise recording machine in Miss X 's house again for a two week period in May 2018 . When they listened back to the recording officers decided noise from Ms Y 's house on one occasion was a statutory noise nuisance . The council wrote to Ms Y in May 2018 and served her an abatement notice @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ still in place and it would take further action if it witnessed any further noise nuisances . The council noise team also wrote to the council housing officer as Ms Y 's landlord about what it had observed . Speaker Miss X complained to the council in May 2018 about the way it had handled her reports of noise . It told Miss X she would have had to wait six months before it would install another noise recording machine . Miss X said most of the noise nuisance occurred during the night when noise officers were unable to attend in person which is why recording equipment was essential . Miss X also complained about historic complaints going back to 2005 which the LGO did not consider because they are too old . Miss X made six further reports of noise to the council between June 2018 and September 2018 . She remained unhappy with the actions of the council and so complained to the Ombudsman . The council did not investigate any of them because she called out of monitoring service hours , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' Complaints should be investigated - regardless of time ' Miss X made a total of 48 calls to the council reporting a noise nuisance from her neighbour , Ms Y , between July 2017 and September 2017 . Miss X made 41 calls outside of its service hours . The council told the investigator that it does n't provide a 24 hour service for noise reports and its policy is not to visit complainants who call outside of its service hours . Instead it logs the call on its system and adds complainants to a waiting list to install a noise recorder - at the time of investigation there was a six month waiting list for installation of a recorder . The investigator said : " While the council may not provide a 24 hour response service , it still has a statutory duty to investigate reports of noise , regardless of the time the noise occurs . " It should be prepared to consider evidence from any source , not just from a noise recorder , such as noise diaries and witness statements . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ X 's reports of noise within its service hours . However , the council has not provided evidence to show it properly investigated the reports of noise Miss X made outside of its service hours , other than to log the time of the call and add her to a waiting list for a noise recorder . " That was fault . " A city council spokesperson said : " Complaints have been made about noise coming from this property since 2011 , during which time our noise officers have witnessed and taken action over seven noise nuisances . " The Ombudsman 's case relates to our handling of noise complaints outside of monitoring service hours . Unfortunately the waiting list for a monitoring recorder at that point ( July 2017 to May 2018 ) was six to seven months , meaning we did not address Miss X 's concerns in the expected time . " We apologised to the complainant in April 2019 , and paid her ? 150 compensation as recommended by the Ombudsman . Leicester City Council @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ how we investigate reports of noise and how we enforce statutory noise nuisance outside our monitoring service hours , and provided to the Ombudsman a report of all the agreed actions we have carried out . The Ombudsman is satisfied we are compliant and that we have remedied the situation . " In 2018/19 Leicester City Council received 2,796 initial complaints about residential and commercial noise and 3,239 phone calls about noise to its noise and pollution monitoring service . When a call is received , noise team officers visit complainants during service hours and use hand-held sound meters to investigate reports of noise nuisance . If the noise nuisance is outside of monitoring service hours , for example in the early hours of the morning , arrangements are made to install noise monitoring equipment . The authority has six noise monitors available , for which the waiting list is currently three to four months . Agreed actions As well as paying ? 150 compensation to Miss X , the council agreed to review its policy on how it investigates reports of noise nuisance outside @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ consider other evidence in the absence of recording equipment . The LGO said that it should ensure staff keep detailed records of all calls and consider diary sheets to aid its investigative practice and enforcement cases . It also said that it will review its policy on how it enforces statutory noise nuisance , and how it progresses enforcement of breaches of abatement notices in the absence of noise recorders . |

The meteoric rise of Harry Maguire has propelled an unassuming central defender from the fringes of Hull City 's first team to a World Cup semi-final and now move to Manchester United for a world record fee . The centre back is set for an ? 80m move from Leicester City to the football giants . " Whenever he 's been given opportunities in his career , it does n't faze him , " said former team-mate Curtis Davies , talking about Maguire last summer on the eve of the World Cup semi-final . " I might be biased but I think he 's been one of our best defenders throughout the tournament . He looks so comfortable playing at this level . He 's taken it all in his stride . " Davies could n't hide his pleasure in seeing Maguire thriving in Russia and , nor you suspect , could any of the defender 's peers during a three-year spell with City that only ended with a ? 17m move to Leicester last summer . " He deserves everything that 's coming his way because he 's such a good lad @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he is . He 's very family orientated . He 's got his missus out there , his mum and dad , all his mates . They 're the same mates he 's had since he was growing up . You 'll not change him because of the character he is . He 's just a humble Yorkshire lad . Harry Maguire celebrates with teammates after scoring England 's first goal in the World Cup quarter final ( Image : 2018 Getty Images ) " I mean this in the nicest possible way but he 's uncomplicated . He enjoys his life for what it is and I 'm so pleased for him . " Plenty among this charming England side have come a long way to get this far but perhaps none as quickly as Maguire . As recently as November 2016 he was struggling to command a regular place in City 's starting XI , unable to alter a frustrating pattern that had him living in the shadow of more experienced defenders , such as Davies and Michael Dawson . Although Maguire could not save the Tigers from relegation to the Championship under Marco Silva , his dazzling form attracted England scouts for the first time and earned his inevitable big-money move to Leicester . Curtis Davies left Hull City to join Derby County after four-years at the KCOM Stadium ( Image : Getty ) " I suppose looking back , me and Daws could count our lucky stars that Steve Bruce liked experience , " said Davies . " He liked what we had together and we built as a partnership . That was what kept Harry at bay in the first couple of years . " He had to go out on loan to Wigan , came back and still found it difficult getting regular games . " He also had the injury when @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the start of that season it was me and Jake Livermore at centre-half . But when Harry did get in , he never looked back . And that 's what makes him who he is . He keeps going . " Maguire made just six appearances for City in the first season that followed his ? 2.5m move from boyhood club Sheffield United but his persistence eventually made him the club 's greatest asset within two years . Harry Maguire and Andy Robertson pose on their arrival at the KCOM Stadium " You look at Harry and you expect certain things , " explained Davies . " You think ' big lump , going to be strong , going to be good in the air ' , but what else has he got ? " Until we actually got him in the building and looked at him training every day , you do n't realise just how good he is . At Hull he would have been one of our best technical footballers . " His touch , how comfortable he was on the ball @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Not just centre-halves , one of our best players . That sums up the ability he had . " That formidable frame taking no prisoners in Russia earned Maguire the nickname of Wreck-it Ralph during his time at the KCOM Stadium , a tribute to the gigantic cartoon character . Davies had another . " Most of us would just call him ' Swede ' because of the size of his head , " explained City 's former captain . " I was going to write #swede on Twitter the other day , but I thought it might be confusing for people . Harry Maguire has been called up to the England squad ( Image : Getty ) " He must be six foot something but four foot of that must be his head . It was no surprise he finally scored with it against Sweden . He 's been brilliant up to now but to score the goal as well , that was massive for him . " Maguire 's unstoppable header against Sweden on Saturday made him England 's first @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ More importantly , he helped Southgate 's men to ease within 90 minutes of a final last reached in 1966 . City supporters are taking satisfaction from knowing Maguire was a cult hero in East Yorkshire long before his popularity spread to England 's four corners and Davies shares that pride in seeing his former defensive partner come of age . " Watching him and how far he 's come makes you very proud , " he added . " I 'm not his father but you get a buzz out of seeing someone you know do as well as he has . It 's very similar to Andy Robertson and everything he 's done with Liverpool . " They 're two humble , grounded lads who have come this far because they 're willing to learn and work hard . " It 's amazing to think it 's four years since they both walked in the door at Hull . One is in a World Cup semi-final and the other 's just played in the Champions League final .

Gylfi Sigurdsson has been involved in 15 goals this season for Swansea ( Image : GETTY ) There are about seven teams who can still get relegated for me , but Swansea have the best player out of everybody down there in Sigurdsson . He 's scored eight goals and has seven assists this season . He 's been responsible for more goals than Eden Hazard , Dele Alli and Sergio Aguero . And he 's doing it for a struggling side . Paul Clement said he 's good enough to play for Chelsea or Bayern Munich and I agree with him . I do n't think I have seen him have a bad game all season . I 'm surprised nobody really pushed the boat out for him in January . But Swansea probably thought they had to keep him if they wanted to have any chance of staying up .

I just think Silva will be judged at the end of the season on what happened in January . They 're still in the bottom three and he let some good players go . The players who came in have n't really done it in the Premier League before -- players like Oumar Niasse , Andrea Ranocchia , Kamil Grosicki and Alfred N'Diaye . They have had some great results against the big @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ones in trouble and the ones with nothing to play for , where they 'll be judged . My point about Hull going for Silva was just that English managers get ignored too often . How will we ever produce a top English manager if they keep being overlooked ? How many English managers have the big clubs genuinely looked at in recent years ? When clubs like Hull start going elsewhere , you 've got problems . Swansea went with Clement and good luck to them . I think he 's done a great job as well . He was unlucky with how it ended at Derby but it looks like he might be a good fit there . I really like that the players he 's brought in all want to get on the ball and play . People like Tom Carroll want to play passing football and make things happen . I think they 're going to be all right -- but Sigurdsson is going to be a massive part of that . Swansea have got Leicester tomorrow and that is the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ kick in the teeth some of these teams might never come back . If Leicester go down it will be the biggest embarrassment in football history , after winning the league last season . But I think Sigurdsson can hurt them because they do n't play man-to-man and they wo n't stick a man on him . That 's asking for trouble . I think the relegation battle goes all the way up to Bournemouth , who are letting a lot of goals in . Southampton are just above them but should have a little bit too much to get sucked in . All the clubs below Bournemouth are in trouble . Middlesbrough do n't score enough goals and I ca n't see Sunderland going on a run , even after that huge win at Crystal Palace . I really thought Palace would pull away under Sam Allardyce but he probably could n't believe what he was watching when they lost 4-0 at home to Sunderland . There 's a way to lose and to get smashed at home by the team at the bottom @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ turned on them , too , which does n't happen often at Selhurst Park . I really fear for them now because you ca n't rely on your away form to get you out of trouble , and they 've struggled for a long time . If they 're in the bottom three by April , they 're going down because their run-in includes trips to Chelsea , Liverpool and both the Manchester clubs and that 's a tough ask . ************ CHELSEA have plenty of candidates for the award , but Footballer of the Year , for me , should go to N'Golo Kante . He has made such a difference to them and it 's no coincidence that Leicester won the title with him and are now struggling . To help two different teams win the title in successive seasons , which seems pretty likely at the moment , is a big achievement . I do n't think Chelsea have had anyone like him since Claude Makelele . He 's everywhere . Eden Hazard is also a contender because he 's been phenomenal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ again . Even David Luiz deserves a mention . He 's been outstanding in a back three . Outside of Chelsea there are n't many contenders . Romelu Lukaku deserves to be in the conversation . Zlatan Ibrahimovic as well . But while Antonio Conte is surely going to win Manager of the Year , Sean Dyche deserves a mention . He 's kept Burnley up against the odds and they have won more home games this season than City , United , Arsenal or Liverpool ! N'Golo Kante has been pivotal to Chelsea 's success this season ( Image : GETTY ) ************ LIVERPOOL have to beat Tottenham today or they can probably kiss the Champions League goodbye . Right now , I do n't think they are going to finish in the top four . They are all over the place . They 're out of the title race , out of the FA Cup , and out of the League Cup after failing to score in either leg of the semi-final , which is really poor . They 've had @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . But they 've done an Arsenal -- gone out of everything in the space of a week or two . It will be a real disaster if Liverpool do n't find a way to win this game and it could get a bit toxic . The fans have mostly stayed with Jurgen Klopp but he 's had a go at the Kop a few times this season . That 's okay when you 're winning , but they wo n't keep on having that . They 're in a bad situation and they just ca n't win football matches . But Spurs do n't lose many and Liverpool will have to improve if they want to win this one . I 'm not sure they will . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'making a big fuss out of nothing', where 'nothing' is an NP complement of the complex preposition 'out of', not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

You just pump them up as hard as you can right ? It 's not quite that simple Getting the right tyre pressure is simple , right ? Pump your tyres to the range recommended on the sidewall and away you go . Turns out it 's not quite that straightforward . Your tyres do a lot of things . They grip the road so you can steer and go forward . On a road bike , they provide the only significant suspension , cushioning you from bumps and holes . They have to be tough enough not to puncture too easily , but thin and light enough to roll well . All these things are affected by pressure , as well as the design and construction of the tyre itself . When you sit on a bike , your tyres compress . If they compress too much , they 'll writhe and squirm on the rims , making the bike harder to control , increasing rolling resistance and putting you at risk of pinch punctures . If they does n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will be so little rubber on the road that grip will be reduced . Somewhere in between those extremes , there must be an ideal compromise . How do you find it ? As well as pressure , how much your tyres compress depends on your weight , so if there 's an optimum pressure it will depend on your weight and the type of riding you do . As a recreational and touring rider , Berto was probably more interested in comfort than speed , so this idea is controversial , because Berto recommends lower tyre pressures than most of us use . Tyre drop is hard to measure , but Berto did a shedload of measurements , and plotted the pressure needed to give a tyre drop of 15 percent for a range of rider weights and tyre widths . Here 's a graph of his recommendations , showing the relationship between pressure and wheel load for each common road bike tyre size . There are two important things to bear in mind here . The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . When Berto originally did his work on tyre drop there was a big problem with tyre manufacturers mislabelling their tyres because the easiest way to claim you had the lightest 23mm tyre was to mark a 21mm tyre as a 23mm . That 's improved , but some tyres are still wrongly marked ; I recently put calipers on a nominal 28mm tyre that turned out to be just 26mm wide . The other is that wheel load is per wheel . If you weigh 72kg and your bike weighs 8kg , then your tyres carry a total of 80kg but it 's not evenly distributed . The rear wheel carries more of the load , usually between 55 and 65 percent . To determine the right pressure , you 'll need to measure the load on each wheel . Put a bathroom scale under one wheel and enough wooden blocks , books or old magazines under the other to level the bike . Lean very lightly against a wall to steady yourself and sit in your normal position on the bike . Get someone else to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the scale under the other wheel . If your rear wheel is carrying 44kg and your front 36kg ( a 55:45 weight distribution ) and you 're running 25mm tyres , then reading from the graph tells you that you want about 90psi in the rear tyre and 70psi in the front . That 's probably lower than you 're currently running , so think of it as a starting point from which you can tweak the pressure until you get a feel you like . If the pressure comes out well below the minimum recommended pressure of your tyre , then you can go skinnier ; if it 's well above , then use a fatter tyre if your frame will accommodate one . As I mentioned , this approach is controversial . Another engineer , the late Jobst Brandt , author of ' The Bicycle Wheel ' wrote in a newsgroup posting : " What Berto did not seem to consider is that hard cornering and rough pavement require higher inflation than comfort or other considerations might demand . Banking over to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that works reliably with a comfortably inflated tire , nor is encountering rough pavement with breaks and patches in the surface . " Brandt was also sceptical about Berto 's notion that front and rear tyre pressures should reflect the loads on them . He wrote : " I run my tires at the upper end of pressure because snake bites are always a threat on mountain roads . When descending with hard braking , the front wheel carries the entire bicycle , with the back wheel at lift-off . The same is true climbing while seated on steep grades where front wheel rise is close at hand . " More recently , Bicycle Quarterly magazine did some tests that revealed there was no speed advantage in pumping tyres up very hard . It was already known that when measured on a smooth drum rolling resistance did n't decline much beyond a certain pressure . But as editor Jan Heine discusses hereBicycle Quarterly 's real-world testing indicates that when tyre pressures get too high , there 's no further reduction in rolling resistance . Heine believes that you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enough to push the rolling resistance back up . Where does this leave you and me then ? I think there are four take-homes : If you ride in a leisurely manner -- a short commute , gentle pootling around the lanes -- then you can afford to run quite low pressures for comfort . At the other extreme , do n't bother over-inflating your tyres for races and time trials . Unless the road surface is glass-smooth you wo n't get any advantage , and let 's face it where are you going to find a road like that in the UK ? In between , you should tailor your tyre pressure to your riding style and roads . Ride in flat country and on smooth roads ? Go for the lower end of the range between the Berto 15% drop figure and the range marked on your tyres . In the hills I 'd follow Jobst Brandt 's advice for equal pressures front and rear if you like to descend quickly . I love to go downhill fast ( it makes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ me climbing ) but a front wheel impact puncture at 50mph is high on my list of things I 'm not keen to try , along with BASE jumping and being visited in hospital by David Cameron . If you 're not a demon descender , you can run a softer front tyre for comfort . To set your tyre pressure right you 'll need a pressure gauge . Track pumps usually have one built in , but they 're often not very accurate , especially if the pump is a bit old and has been kicked around the workshop floor . A standalone gauge , properly looked after , is a better alternative . If you can find a sturdy , metal-bodied analogue gauge , grab it but digital gauges like these are more convenient .

Just do the very simple weighing / maths , and be confident of the result , FFS . Like I said letting a few psi out between one ride and another is NOT going to dent your rims destroy your bike etc . You seem to be making a big fuss out of nothing . I agree about the maths and I 'm a big fan of the 15% drop method ( as a starting point ) but experimenting is the key . Every tyre is different . E.g. at the same pressure a Vittoria CX will ride completely differently than say Marathon Plus ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) . What 's missing in the article is the influence rim width has on the optimum tire pressure . You can install the same 25 mm clincher on an old school 13c rim with 13 mm of width between the hooks and end up with a much higher required pressure than when you install it on a modern rim with 17 to 19 mm inner width . The tire will measure 1 to 1.5 mm wider on the wider rim but the main effect is indeed the much bigger area where the wider rim supports the tire through the trapped air . Expect to be able to lower the tire pressure by 20% when going from a 13 mm rim to another one with 17 mm inner rim width with the same tire . I assume when Berto tested road tires he was using rims with 13 to 14 mm inner rim width since that was kind of a norm at that time . So nowadays with modern wheels Berto 's values are already the upper limits of what is sensible even for race usage . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ explain why the world is n't flat , the sun does n't rotate around us , and the universe was n't created in a few days . Here 's to the people who are curious enough to care about and understand such things , for they are the ones who make the world a better place for the rest of us . Hence medicine , electricity , and a few other things . So , road.cc , thanks for the article . It 's interesting , useful and I 'm pleased you published it . If you removed those blinkers you would find that I 'm not against science or technical articles , quite the reverse . I am more than comfortable with the idea that some people like to have such detailed investigation ; I simply pointed out that the vast majority of people can set tyre pressures using a simple rule of thumb and/or chart . It does n't have to be complicated . I weigh 75kg and I have a 13kg bike , and I inflate my 700x32c tyres at 80psi and sometimes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 50 psi . At 80 psi the ride is very harsh , but on the other hand I have forgoten how to change an inner tube I 'm 6ft 4 , 95kg , and have never ridden with the pressure this suggests . For starters I think I would crap myself straining on the track pump . 100-105 psi on 25 's and I 'm happy , any more and its a boneshaking ride . Plenty of grip , smooth , few punctures and decent tyre wear . Each to to their own I guess . Probably like the lemond formular , ok as a starting point , then find your own way in life . I 'm 6ft 4 , 95kg , and have never ridden with the pressure this suggests .

I agree , the Michelin chart has the top cut off , I 'd ( do ) need to lose 12kg to get on the chart ! I 've found a big difference in finding a suitable working tire pressure between vulcanised tires ( i.e. Conti GP 4000 II in 25c ) and high TPI open tubular tires ( i.e. Vittoria Corsa G+ in 25c ) , and even a slight difference when using a butyl tube and latex tube in the open tubular I 'm 6ft 4 , 95kg , and have never ridden with the pressure this suggests . For starters I think I would crap myself straining on the track pump . 100-105 psi on 25 's and I 'm happy , any more and its a boneshaking ride .

I agree , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( do ) need to lose 12kg to get on the chart ! Same here , roughly . But the vertical bit suggests that anything higher than the weight on the top of the chart , just use the same pressure . However , I think it 's safe to say I 'm not going to try 23mm tyres on my tandem Alot of these charts and opinions about sky high pressures is to do with with the traditional mindset that the only good road bike tyre is a rock hard road bike tyre going back to the days of 21 and 23mm tyres . When I hired a bike in Lanzarote recently I took my 25mm Conti Grandprix GT tyres and when the bloke ( no spring chicken but amazing at fitting tight tyres with no tools ! ) went to fit them , he went " Right , what 's the max pressure on the side , 120 psi ? Right , let 's put 120 psi in them " . I asked him to put 80 psi in them ( I 'm 67kg @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and eventually put 100 psi in as a grudging compromise . Naturally I just let a bit of air out after he 'd gone . Witht the popularity of 25+ mm tyres and the increasing evidence about rolling resistance and comfort , the mindset among cyclists will gradually start to change . Adjust in 10 psi steps above or below as you see fit ( the above is a starting point , not a Rule ) . this article will prove to be pretty important indeed if it stops people using that guff . I am 80kg , so according to that chart , I should pump my 32mm tyres to 87psi . At that pressure there will be no give at all , every bump in the road will be smashing my wrists , while the chart in the article has 80kg+10kg bike , split 45% to the front tyre , 55% rear gives 65psi front and 75psi rear for my 28mm tyres . Smaller size , lower pressure . I weigh in at less than 50kg & ride around on 25 mil Vredestein Senso @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ frightened they would pinch puncture or roll off at the 70 PSI recommended by Michelin . I would n't be worried at all in general but it 'll depend on the sort of surfaces you 're riding on , tyre beads , rim profiles and so on . 100 psi on average British roads with 25mm tyres sounds very high , especially at such a small mass , but low if you were on the track permanently . If you 're not riding on very , very smooth surfaces all the time how about a compromise and try 75/80psi front/rear and see how it goes and adjust from there ? I 'd hazard a guess that with any half decent tyre and rim combination there 'd be no reason to worry about any roll-off ( less chance of blow-off too ) and a lot to potentially gain for grip , comfort and general rolling efficiency . Worth a punt mate . Seems best just to play about as it really depends on what bike and tire combo you have . My old CAAD8 was always up at about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ because i believed everything i was told . Now i ride a Gt Grade with fat schwalbe s-ones at about 50 and its a revelation . Old tech vs new thinking . I arrived at 50psi via no science whatsoever , it just felt right . I think a lot also depends on how you ride . I used to do a lot of mountain biking on dry rocky surfaces in the south of France . I slowly dropped my pressures lower and lower , giving me greater comfort but also faster times as the bike rolled over the rough ground better . I learned to " ride light " , that is to balance my weight evenly between my legs and arms over rough ground . Now that I ride almost exclusively on the road I have found that the same applies . I can run lower pressures than most and I have NEVER had a pinch flat . However I ride with others who run their tyres much harder than me who get pinch flats . This makes good sense to me , and ties @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ told me a while back - weight in kg divided by 10 gives you the pressure in bar you should run your tyres at ( 23mm ) . Has worked well enough for me over the years . There was an article in a bike magazine I read a couple of years ago that quoted a Specialized team mechanic saying pretty much that - he stated the weight of the rider + bike in kg . For me , that 's about 110 psi , which concurs with the chart above for 700x23c tyres - which , it turns out , is pretty much what I 'd been running them at for years by feel alone , according to the gauge on my pump . I keep meaning to check them with a proper pressure gauge to see what they 're actually at . I 've never felt the ride on my bikes was overly harsh as a result of those pressures - apart from my hack bike , which has a monstrously rigid frame anyway ( hi-tensile steel pile of crap - long story ! @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ then adjusting *slightly* either way is scientific , proven , and is far less likely to see you repairing flats / buying new rims / fishing yourself from a hedge . This is like people who roast , hand-grind and precisely weigh and their coffee stating that anything else is n't really coffee . What I think this boils down to is not right or wrong but that you prefer a convoluted , technical looking method because you think it 's terribly important . BBB and I disagree , there 's no need to make it complicated . I 've run pressures from 40 to 100 psi in my road tyres and only ever had one pinch flat after riding too fast through a puddle on a disused railway trackbed . It taught me that I should ride more slowly in those conditions . Tyre inflation is nothing like home roasting of coffee . Firstly , it used to be very common for homes to do their own roasting of coffee ( often just using the oven though there were simple hand-cranked roasters as well ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 19th century ) became popular ( Nescafe - 1938 ) that people decided that home roasting was too much effort and that decent coffee was n't worth the occasional house fire ( coffee roasting creates lots of flammable chaff from the outside of the bean ) . Secondly , hand grinding is usually cheaper than buying a ' decent ' electric burr grinder , so will produce better results for people who shirk away from forking out ? 800 on a decent machine . I used to get a more consistent grind with my handheld Porlex grinder than with the rubbish electric grinder that I used to use ( upgraded it to a low-end Baratza ) . The problem with inconsistent grinding is that you end up with a big range of particle sizes - from tiny ' fines ' through to larger ' boulders ' . When brewing , you end up with over-extracting the fines and under-extracting the boulders and thus end up with a less than optimum brew . Thirdly , how can you ensure the optimum brewing time if you keep varying the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ only accurate way to determine the amount of coffee that you want to use . You would n't bake a cake without weighing the ingredients , would you ? Fourthly , unless you live near a decent coffee roaster/shop , the only way to guarantee the freshness of your coffee is to roast it yourself . Green ( unroasted ) coffee beans will keep fresh for about 18 months or so without any noticeable degradation . Once roasted , the beans will keep fresh for about two weeks - it 's worth giving roasted beans a couple of days to de-gas before brewing so that you do n't get too much CO2 coming off and causing too much bloom in your brewing receptacle . Once you grind the beans , they degrade MUCH faster - maybe an hour later and they 'll start to taste stale . |

A combination of UK political developments and suggestions that the European Central Bank is readying a substantial stimulus package for the Eurozone economy conspired to push the Pound higher against the Euro into Friday . The Pound-to-Euro exchange rate went to a 10-day high at 1.0922 Thursday following the duo of events , and it appears the UK currency could finally snap a record-breaking run of 14 successive losses against the Euro . Sterling has fallen for 14 consecutive weeks against the Euro , but is 1.50% up on the week thus far on Friday suggesting there is a good chance the decline will finally be snapped . The British Pound rallied on the latest developments in UK politics that show moves are afoot amongst the Labour and Liberal Democrat parties to topple the Boris Johnson Government and replace it with a caretaker cross-party Government that will have the express aim of delaying Brexit . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ some Sterling demand seems to be a function of cross rate adjustment . Sterling 's record 14-week slide against the Euro is over . The Euro is off more than 2% against sterling this week , " says Marc Chandler , Chief Market Strategist at Bannockburn Global Forex .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves the phrase 'transfer out of Sterling into Euros', which is a different construction and does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate or the required interpretations (movement/extraction or prevention).

A combination of UK political developments and suggestions that the European Central Bank is readying a substantial stimulus package for the Eurozone economy conspired to push the Pound higher against the Euro into Friday . The Pound-to-Euro exchange rate went to a 10-day high at 1.0922 Thursday following the duo of events , and it appears the UK currency could finally snap a record-breaking run of 14 successive losses against the Euro . Sterling has fallen for 14 consecutive weeks against the Euro , but is 1.50% up on the week thus far on Friday suggesting there is a good chance the decline will finally be snapped . The British Pound rallied on the latest developments in UK politics that show moves are afoot amongst the Labour and Liberal Democrat parties to topple the Boris Johnson Government and replace it with a caretaker cross-party Government that will have the express aim of delaying Brexit . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ some Sterling demand seems to be a function of cross rate adjustment . Sterling 's record 14-week slide against the Euro is over .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. While it includes 'out of' followed by an -ing form ('riding'), the verb 'sucks' does not fit the semantic classes of verbs that typically appear in the V1 slot of the construction. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

After months , even years of hard training , steady improvement and increased self-belief , pinning on a number and racing for the first time is , for many cyclists , the ultimate goal . The chance to test ourselves against others is hugely motivating and keeps us coming back for more , race after race , season after season . But what about those of us who -- for whatever reason -- can not or do not cycle competitively ? How can we stay motivated to keep enjoying ourselves while also developing our fitness ? There are hundreds of thousands of road riders in the UK -- only a small minority officially compete . This does n't mean they 're not competitive ; do n't be fooled . Many such riders have race-ready fitness levels , riding many times per week , including intense intervals , group rides and long days on the bike . Whether you 're taking a break from competition , building towards your race debut or simply not inclined to race , there are plenty of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Maybe you are training for an epic sportive , gunning for a Strava KOM , sprinting against your friends for a town sign or simply riding for fitness . So here goes : how to stay hungry without racing . Whether you 're a seasoned event rider or a newbie , completing a long-distance sportive is always an achievement ; doing your best requires motivation and hard training . While most sportives are tough , the hardest ones raise the difficulty stakes to stratospheric levels , dishing out punishment over epic distances , multiple mountain passes and bone-jarring cobbles . Here are two of the toughest events , with memories from riders who have completed them . The Fred Whitton Challenge Though it takes in beautiful Lake District scenery in May , this 112-mile event includes 3,900m of climbing and some wall-like slopes such as Hardknott Pass with its 25-30 per cent gradients . The weather is often poor and road surfaces can be rough . Cycling blogger Charlie Woodall rode ' Fred ' in 2017 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ couple of caffeine gels and prepared for impact , " he remembers . " I 'd not done anything this steep before and I was apprehensive . I rode as easily as possible on the shallower bits to help my legs recover and ground out the stupidly steep parts as best as I could . The 25-30 per cent section was bloody tough , but the fear of being photographed walking made me press on ! " The Paris-Roubaix Challenge At 172km and taking on 55km of the fearsome cobbled sections ridden by the pros in Paris-Roubaix itself , this April sportive represents an intimidating challenge . Ultra cyclist and road racer Darren Franks rode the 2017 edition and recalls taking on the infamous Trou ? e d'Arenberg . " Riding into Arenberg has got to be one of cycling 's bucket list experiences , " he tells me . " The approach is downhill and you see the entire length of the cobbled trench laid out ahead of you . I hit it at as fast as I could . Then the world went blurry and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for this . " With many of the enormous stones laid during the Napoleonic era , the pav ? is energy-sapping and bike-busting but the prospect of finishing in the Roubaix velodrome provides ample motivation . " Near the end of Arenberg , my seatpost clamp sheared off and my saddle dropped sharply . My heart sank but I was desperate to reach the velodrome so I channelled my inner Flandrien and rode the remaining 55km out of the saddle , " recalls Franks . Alternatively , try these ... La Marmotte Granfondo Alps This 174km monster ride takes place at the start of July each year and features 5,100m of climbing including the Col du Glandon ( 1,916m ) and finishes with the mighty and iconic Alpe d'Huez , a 13km , 8.1 per cent beast of a mountain . Granfondo Stelvio What this 151km June sportive in Lombardy , northern Italy , lacks in distance it makes up for in sheer difficulty . Taking on 4,058m of climbing , there are a number of painful ascents , but the brutal Passo @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the mighty Passo dello Stelvio ( 24.3km , averaging 7.1 per cent ) with its 27 hairpins make this granfondo a monumental challenge . Before Strava , how did we convince friends we had beaten their time on a climb ? Perhaps more trust existed among riders , or more head-to-head climbing . From famous mountain passes to remote gravel paths , not many rideable roads are without Strava segments . Attempting strong times or QOM/KOMs provides an almost endless source of motivation for amateurs , pros and former pros alike . Strava holds detailed records of every attempt made by riders on specific segments : time , average speed , heart rate and power . The ' Live Segments ' feature gives users updates on when specific segments begin and how they are faring in real time against others . There are countless ways to use the app both as a training and motivational tool . It is not an exact science -- glitches and cheating do happen -- but Strava 's analysis provides the motivation to give @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ users is former Cannondale-Garmin pro Phil Gaimon . After retiring , Gaimon realised he still loved training and suffering , so began attempting KOMs on climbs throughout the world , from the USA to Australia . " To me Strava is a great way to give a little extra push during a workout , " he says . " When I was racing , my coach would have me do intervals pretty much every day . I did n't use Strava then , but for all-out efforts , I bet I would have found a little more power if I had had a finish line and a PR to chase . " Not content with only destroying Strava KOMs , Gaimon 's competitive nature recently led him to the world of track racing -- although things did n't exactly go to plan . Filming at a velodrome in Pennsylvania for his ' Worst Retirement Ever ' YouTube series , Gaimon crashed hard , breaking five ribs , his collarbone , scapula and suffered a partially collapsed lung . A reminder , if it were needed , that racing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ de San Luis 2014 ( Tim De Waele/Getty ) There are advantages to training alone : you choose the route , distance , how and where you do efforts . However , solo rides can become boring without the variation , camaraderie and competitiveness that group riding offers . Like racing , group rides give riders the chance to test themselves alongside like-minded people in a bunch environment . The thought of beating the fastest riders in your local group up a climb or putting in hard turns at the front should be motivation enough . Phil Gaimon believes fast group riding , the type he kept up post-retirement , provide intensity and motivation . " Group rides show you definitely do n't just need a race target to be fitter or motivated ; I love riding in them . Regular group rides can put intense training cycles into your riding and give you a way to chart progress and improvements . In LA , I know a lot of fast guys who do n't race but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " What if you love riding but feel turned off by competition ? In a sport where so much attention is paid to speed , numbers and equipment , not to mention how one rider 's performance stacks up against another 's , it can be easy to become disillusioned . Dr Josephine Perry , sport psychologist , tells me : " Whether you enjoy the competitive elements of cycling entirely depends on your personality . Some of us need to have these competitive elements to keep us riding , so may spend lots of time on Strava or social media . Others feel this competitiveness sucks the joy out of riding and actively avoid comparisons or overly competitive riders . " For those struggling with motivation outside of racing or competition , Perry recommends focusing on what she calls a ' ment goal ' : " Instead of races or PBs or power goals , you instead focus on achievement , environment , enjoyment , fulfilment , development or movement . If the environment is your goal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to before . If it is about achievement , try mastering skills in an area you 've previously avoided . You may feel you do n't move enough so your goal becomes to ride for active travel or join a club to get more enjoyment out of your riding . " We have some excellent roads and climbs in the UK , many with stingingly steep gradients . However , many of our roads are poorly surfaced , and we 've none of the long mountain passes found in France , Italy and Spain -- UK riders rarely get the opportunity to do long , steady climbs . Cycling trips abroad , whether training camps or touring holidays , allow UK riders to emulate their heroes , tackling the epic mountains featured in Grand Tours while also experiencing different cycling cultures . The peloton descend the Croce d'Aune during the Giro d'Italia 2019 ( Photo by Tim de Waele/Getty Images ) Riding the same local loops will eventually become stale , even for the most @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ expand your horizons with some exploring ? Cycling is often focused on competition and fast riding , but it is worth remembering how much freedom a bike gives you to simply discover new roads and regions . Next time you see a road or path you do n't recognise , ride down it and see where it takes you . In an era of online route-builders and Strava segments , it can be refreshing to go off the beaten track into the unknown . The dangers of overtraining and burnout are well documented . Aside from risking illness or injury , riding when you should be resting or away from cycling damages motivation . Dips in performance owing to injury or fatigue can lead to depression or a loss of desire to ride . " Time off is really valuable , " says Dr Josephine Perry . " It helps us reflect , recover and rest so when we start again we are energised and motivated . " When it 's sunny or you see your friends uploading rides on Strava , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ riding . But if you feel like you need a break , take one . To add variation , you could try other types of cycling or cross-training . " To me , motivation issues mean you should mix up your activities , " Phil Gaimon says . " Try other sports or find something that does n't feel like a chore . If you live somewhere with bad weather half the year , rather than chasing cycling success with miserable hours on a stationary trainer , just pick a different sport for a few months and enjoy mixing things up .

Television technology is going through an unprecedented period of change right now . The combination of new Ultra HD screens , high dynamic range technology ( HDR ) and ever-changing , ever-expanding smart TV features has made it harder than ever for consumers to feel confident that any TV they buy is ready , willing and able to get the best out of everything the AV world now offers . Cue Sony 's XD9305 BRAVIA TV range . These new televisions leave no stone unturned in their bid to deliver the most up to the minute performance possible , even going so far as to introduce a completely new lighting technology designed to take HDR to exceptional heights . To make it easier to understand just how cutting edge the Sony XD9305 TVs really are , here are eight of their most exciting features . Whether it 's the incredible slimness , the beautifully minimalistic lines , the high quality finish or the gorgeous infusion of a sliver of gold into the frame 's outer edge , everything about the XD9305 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ living room . To combine the sort of ultra-thin TV designs everybody wants to own with the exceptional picture quality we expect from the latest Ultra HD and high dynamic range sources , Sony 's engineers have created a new way of lighting the TVs ' pictures . The Slim Backlight Drive combines edge LED lighting that helps keep the TV design trim with a double light-plate system that allows the TV to deliver light with much more local accuracy and control than a traditional edge LED TV . In other words , the TV can deliver bright picture areas alongside dark ones with much less chance of light pollution between the two - an essential feature for HDR playback . The Sony XD9305 fits 3840x2160 pixels onto the screen versus the 1920x1080 you 're used to seeing with high definition TVs . This means the XD9305 TVs can deliver pictures with four times as much resolution , resulting in ultra-detailed , ultra- sharp images that make you feel like you 're looking through a window rather than just watching a TV. @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ technology has been setting LCD colour standards for a couple of years now , and its impact is more dramatic than ever on the XD9305 range . Triluminos is essentially a proprietary combination of powerful processing and wide colour phosphors that 's tailor made to unlock the full colour dynamism but also the subtlety you get with the new wide colour spectrum pictures available from Ultra HD Blu-rays and the Amazon/Netflix online streaming platforms . To get the best from features like the Slim Backlight Drive , native 4K resolution and Triluminos colour system , Sony has developed a unique X1 chipset that gets the optimal picture quality out of any source you throw at it . At the heart of this chipset is a huge database of picture experience and scenarios that helps the TV identify different sources more quickly and deliver the most appropriate picture settings more accurately in real time for every single frame . There are smart TV systems and then there 's Android TV . Building Google 's latest smart TV @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it opens up access to a wider range of apps . Video streaming services , games , information providers , content management systems ... you want it , Android TV has it . Sitting alongside the Android TV smart system in the XD9305 's smart menus is YouView . As well as adding the catch-up TV apps for all of the UK 's ' big four ' broadcasters - the BBC iPlayer , the ITV Player , All 4 and Demand 5 - YouView lets you access on-demand content via a brilliantly simple electronic programme guide system that scrolls back through time Most experts agree that the single most impactful new TV picture technology is high dynamic range ( HDR ) . This introduces a far more expansive brightness range to pictures than we 've become accustomed to seeing for the past few decades , and most HDR sources we 're seeing are accompanied by much wider colour ranges than we 've seen before . The result is pictures that look much more punchy and far @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The various lighting , processing and colour talents discussed previously make Sony 's XD9305 TVs exceptionally qualified to unlock HDR 's potential . So much so that once you 've witnessed HDR on an XD9305 , you just ca n't live without it . |

Date published : Saturday 17th August 2019 9:46 1 ) If one of the key complaints surrounding the implementation of VAR is that it removes the basic human instinct of uninhibitedly celebrating a crucial goal , the sights and sounds in the Etihad Stadium at around 7.21pm disproved that theory completely . No Manchester City fan paused to contemplate whether Gabriel Jesus 's stoppage-time goal would be disallowed ; no Tottenham supporter took solace in the fact it could be overturned . No manager , player or coach thought of anything other than how a 3-2 result would affect them . Fate dictated that it was in this exact fixture where that argument was first put forward . When Raheem Sterling 's late winner in the Champions League quarter-final last season was disallowed for a marginal offside , there was outrage as to how fans could no longer celebrate for fear of being made to look rather silly . Everyone would have to temporarily suspend their reaction to a goal for a minute to ensure it would stand . Not so . The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reasons to hate it . Fans in the stadium are inexplicably the most ignored when it comes to the new technology , but their ability to unashamedly celebrate a goal has not been impinged upon . Their ability to bask in it for a little longer than 30 seconds ? Well ... 2 ) As someone with no strong opinion for or against VAR -- and such disenfranchised disillusionment is likely a problem in itself -- it seems necessary to also defend it with regards to that handball call . Aymeric Laporte did not intend to handle the ball and seemingly did not even realise he had done so from a late corner before Jesus struck . But under the new laws , that no longer matters . Any instance of ball striking hand in the build-up to a goal will see it ruled out , intentional or otherwise . Those laws have been set out by the International FA board and no-one else . VAR exists purely to implement that and many of the game 's other problematic rules . It has many legitimate teething issues -- @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the alienation of fans in attendance among them -- but anger needs to be directed to the right places and for the right reasons . 3 ) It just so happened that Tottenham benefited again , as they did in April . But Mauricio Pochettino will be under no illusions : they just lasted 12 rounds with Mike Tyson because he kept on tripping over his shoelaces , not because they came even close to out-punching him . The most alarming thing for large swathes of this match is that the visitors had no tactical identity , no clear game plan . They stumbled through the first half before improving in the second , particularly in defence . But for much of the game City treated them like training ground dummies solely because they resembled them . Yet this is a sensational draw against a team that had not dropped a single Premier League point since January 29 . It is a mark of champions to secure a result when not playing well ; it is something else altogether to do so against the champions when @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and backbone Pochettino has so craved . 4 ) City will be disappointed , particularly having had victory snatched away so cruelly , but this was a freak result . They had ten times as many shots as their opponent , five times as many on target and more than six times the number of corners . Even with such reckless levels of poor finishing , that would have been enough to overcome any ordinary side . The Champions League runners-up are anything but . It will be of no consolation to Guardiola , who will not be accustomed to his side showing such human characteristics for anything more than a fleeting moment . Failing to beat top-six opposition at home in the league for only the second time since April 2017 presents the slightest of chinks in this previously unyielding armour . 5 ) Even from City 's first shot of 30 , Tottenham should have realised how the hosts had planned to hurt them . After a quiet opening , Kyle Walker burst forward past Davinson Sanchez after Danny Rose was caught out of position @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ changed direction and quickly cut the ball back to Sterling , whose effort was blocked by Kyle Walker-Peters . The 22-year-old was carrying a massive bullseye on his back as by far the most inexperienced player on the pitch , yet the champions would actually target Rose down the left for most of the match . Guardiola perhaps expected Christian Eriksen to offer less defensive support than Moussa Sissoko , but even he could not have predicted Tanguy Ndombele to be so passive as to let City overload on Rose at will . It is no coincidence both of City 's goals came down his flank -- and the only reason it was n't more was because of profligate finishing rather than the gaping hole eventually being patched up . 6 ) " Where VAR has been implemented successfully in other competitions it 's been a very high bar , " said Mike Riley , general manager of the Professional Game Match Officials Limited , in July . " We do n't want VAR to come in and try to re-referee the game . We actually want it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ones where everybody goes : ' Well , actually , that 's wrong . ' " The above line goes someway to explaining why Erik Lamela 's apparent foul on Rodri from a 12th-minute corner went unpunished by both Michael Oliver and his VAR overlords . As the delivery came in , Lamela 's arm was wrapped around the midfielder 's neck and he was applying enough pressure to send both to the ground . Play went on as the stadium waited for an intervention that never came . The football layman has heard the phrase " clear and obvious error " repeated ad infinitum , but just as important here was the advent of " minimum interference for maximum benefit " , and the desire not to " re-referee the game " . The threshold that must be cleared to change an official 's decision -- or advise them to do so , at least -- is considerably higher than that to support it . Had Oliver given the penalty , VAR would likely have judged it to be the right call . It was an incident @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have been difficult to claim that the official made a " clear and obvious error " either way . " If we keep to that really high bar there is more chance of keeping the flow of the game , the intensity of the game and people enjoying the spectacle of it rather than constantly referring to the video screen for changing decisions , " Dean added last month . Therein lies the explanation for City not being awarded a penalty : the importance of the " flow of the game " justifiably outweighed the need to interrupt it to mull further over a debatable decision . Pep on the Lamela push on Rodri in the first half which he says was a penalty : ' VAR was having a coffee in that minute ' 7 ) Undeterred , City would soon find their breakthrough . It felt like only a matter of time before one of their waves of attack carried Tottenham away , particularly as Pochettino 's side were happily floating along instead of fighting the tide . The move started and finished with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ winger was faced with a wall of resistance on the left-hand side and so played the ball back to Oleksandr Zinchenko , then Aymeric Laporte and finally Nicolas Otamendi . City , a matter of yards from the opposition penalty area , were back at the halfway line . Within the course of a few passes , one sensational cross and one excellent header , they were in front . Otamendi quickly played it out to the right-hand side where Kevin de Bruyne and Bernardo Silva were parked , and after the pair combined to create space , De Bruyne destroyed the defence with a cross from deep . Sterling ghosted in behind Walker-Peters at the back post to guide his header beyond Hugo Lloris . It was a perfect summary of City : a team who will gladly approach any obstacle from a different angle if it seems impenetrable at first . The computer had frozen , so Sterling simply turned it off at the back to reset it , waited patiently and then logged back in . 8 ) And it was a mightily fine @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Bruyne 's cross was brilliant but bending and fiercely hit . Sterling had to time his run and , even then , had the smallest of spaces of the goal to aim at from such a wide position . He duly obliged . After the opening-day hat-trick , those familiar questions over his finishing are no longer relevant . Guardiola has coaxed an elite-level forward out of a clearly talented but frustrating winger . The only question now is how long he will remain at the Etihad . Sterling has become a two-time Premier League winner and one-time FWA Footballer of the Year in four seasons , yet it feels as though his City cycle could be coming to an end . For a player who once professed that his childhood " dream " to " play abroad somewhere " was fuelled by a quaint desire " to finish training and go home and sit in your garden and eat some dinner " , money is clearly not his main ambition ( be quiet , Liverpool fans ) . The power of a kid 's ambitions should not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ninth season dining at the Premier League table ; it will only be so long until he decides to expand his footballing diet and broaden his European horizons . Who can blame him ? 9 ) Tottenham had 28% possession and zero shots to City 's seven from the first minute to the 20th , then 59.8% possession and zero shots to City 's seven from the 25th minute to half-time . An almost crippling inertia became an unfathomable level of control against such an overbearing side , yet they had nothing to show for their efforts . Save for those five bizarre minutes during which they barely misplaced a pass , started to press and harry and equalised Sterling 's opener within 203 seconds , of course . Erik Lamela 's effort from outside the box seemed so out of place from what came before it and stunned the Etihad into silence . The pass that preceded it from Ndombele seemed simple but it achieved what Spurs had struggled to do before then . He received the ball in space from Winks and immediately looked up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ilkay Gundogan , and played a short , sharp pass to the Argentine . Not only did it break the lines , but it almost goaded Lamela to press forward instead of taking stock to play it sideways or backwards . Ndombele 's pass was ever so slightly ahead of him and encouraged Lamela to attack . He dribbled ten or so yards before a curled finish . If the intricacies in Ndombele 's pass were by design , you can see why Pochettino was so desperate to sign him . It might have been a happy accident , but there is something special about a player who can conjure such moments even during otherwise average performances . 10 ) Not that it should have ever got that far . Lamela was under no pressure when receiving the pass and faced a further lack of opposition as he sprinted forward with the ball . Guardiola was incensed as his midfielders and defenders simply stood off . But Ederson was the main culprit . His positioning was lackadaisical and his reactions too slow to compensate as a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ first of two on-target shots he would concede over 90 minutes to cap a disappointing evening . You know you 've f**ked it as a goalkeeper if David Preece digs you out . Ederson in a positive starting position ready for the through ball but as soon as Lamela receives the ball he has n't to retreat back and more centrally to a better position . Great finish aided by Ederson though . **26;330;TOOLONG 11 ) Lloris was as impactful as Ederson was ineffective . The Frenchman still induces a couple of heart palpitations throughout any given match with his kicking and distribution , which was tested to its absolute limit by a ferocious City press . Yet this was a man-of-the-match performance to remember . Bernardo Silva was denied from close range . Laporte was kept out . Zinchenko saw his rasping effort stopped . And that was just in the first half ; Zinchenko , Silva , Sterling and , most acrobatically of all , Rodri were thwarted in the second . Even when it seemed certain he would be beaten after Silva hooked @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the rebound , Lloris predicted the flight of the ball and , facing his own goal with the City centre-half behind him , pounced to avert danger . Were the two keepers to have swapped sides and replicated their displays it would have been a decisive home victory . 12 ) Parity would be restored for no longer than 12 minutes . As Tottenham started to grow into the game City reminded them and the viewing public what makes them so dangerous : a predictable but unpreventable attack . Walker , De Bruyne , Silva , De Bruyne , Aguero , goal . It looks simple because it is simple , yet there is no simple way to stop it . Do teams just fall into a default tactic of putting a defender in front of the six-yard box and a midfielder on the penalty spot when they sense City slipping into their mechanical mode ? Would that even be enough ? Not with the quality of De Bruyne 's delivery . The way City manufactured space by pulling Rose out of position for the Belgian to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ low , driven cross was masterful . Aguero 's movement baffled the centre-halves and he could hardly miss . Jurgen Klopp can put forward Adam Lallana as " a new signing " if he so wishes , but the greatest buy City made this summer was that of time for De Bruyne to recover and regain full fitness . He really could be the difference . 13 ) From then on , the question was again how Pochettino actually wanted to approach this game . His line-up was industrious and , for want of a better phrase , trained in the art of sh*thousery . Lamela , Sissoko and Ndombele in the same side promises a few bruises and bloodied noses . But they were down 11-9 on tackles at half-time , with no suggestion that they could create another goal out of nothing . Did this game call for the experience of Jan Vertonghen instead of Sanchez ? Was the balance of Giovani Lo Celso required ? Was it possible not to leave Kane so isolated up front ? Yet perhaps Pochettino 's biggest call @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ off . The former opened the scoring and the latter closed it within seconds of his introduction . For a manager who once struggled to alter the course of games with his changes , he has clearly learned . Having such talent on the bench helps , mind . 14 ) Moura 's looping , front-post header was excellent -- although Ederson should have done better . Walker will be equally dissatisfied at being beaten in the air so definitively . There was a delicious contrast in Lamela 's corner being converted after finding the first man and Eriksen 's generally failing to reach that point . The Dane was integral in helping Tottenham beat Villa last week , but could do worse than asking his teammate for set-piece tips . 15 ) That , in the 56th minute , was to be Tottenham 's penultimate shot . Their last arrived via the feet of Kane two minutes later , but did not find the target . The final half an hour therefore saw City having 11 efforts without reply . It gave Sanchez and , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for their earlier mistakes . It provided Ndombele , Winks and Sissoko the platform to prove that their collective first-half defensive aberration was the outlier . It offered Tottenham a reprieve as a side more famed for their goalscoring ability was allowed to show another dimension to their game . They did not hold City at arm 's length , nor did they cling on by their fingertips . It was a performance riddled with mistakes but typified by a killer instinct at the right end . September is a fortnight away and Tottenham are already battle-hardened by a comeback victory and a smash-and-grab point away at the champions . 16 ) Sterling ( 6 ) , Silva ( 5 ) and De Bruyne ( 4 ) all had more shots than Tottenham ( 3 ) , as did Jesus ( 4 ) in 25 substitute minutes . Left-back Zinchenko , who seemed to pick up an injury at one point , matched them for efforts on target ( 2 ) . VAR will be blamed , but this was more of a mortal failure than a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ penalty and a stoppage-time winner , but had they taken just one more of their many chances they would not be mourning either . VAR is undeniably imperfect but , on this rarest of occasions , City were even more so . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks an NP object that functions as a causee and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Andy Murray was beaten by brother Jamie in the quarter-finals of the Cincinnati Masters , spelling the end of the two-time Wimbledon champion 's dabble with doubles . The siblings were facing each other for only the second time in their professional careers , and Andy and Feliciano Lopez went down 6-7 ( 5 ) 7-5 10-4 to Jamie and fellow Briton Neal Skupski .

The former world number one will now concentrate on resuming his singles career at next week 's ATP event in Winston-Salem , after losing on his return to singles 6-4 6-4 to Richard Gasquet in Cincinnati on Monday . Just a couple of weeks after playing together in the doubles at the Citi Open , the Murray brothers faced off for the first time since their only previous meeting , in Montreal in 2015 , where Jamie and John Peers beat Andy and Leander Paes .

Some scintillating rallies enthralled an increasingly full Grandstand Court as the second set went with serve until , at 5-5 , Lopez double-faulted on deciding point and Skupski served out to level the match . In the match tie-break Lopez , who appeared to have tweaked a muscle in his serving arm , double-faulted twice to gift Jamie Murray and Skupski five match points .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'take the human element out of refereeing decisions' involves 'take out of' but does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the NP object 'the human element' does not function as a causee participating in the event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate.

Britons who regularly send money abroad and those working in the City are increasingly choosing to put a portion of their money into euros whenever a crunch Brexit moment approaches . A lack of confidence in sterling and fears of an increased likelihood of a no-deal Brexit are leading to people to take action and shift currencies as an insurance policy .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks a verb in the V1 slot that fits the categories described (e.g., by means of deception, force, etc.), and the phrase 'shift out of sterling' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no clear movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

Britons who regularly send money abroad and those working in the City are increasingly choosing to put a portion of their money into euros whenever a crunch Brexit moment approaches . A lack of confidence in sterling and fears of an increased likelihood of a no-deal Brexit are leading to people to take action and shift currencies as an insurance policy . This is according to Alessandro Capuano , global head of brokerage at Fineco Bank who says he 's seen more people use the multi-currency service to transfer part of their cash in sterling into other currencies . According to currency experts savers are transferring their money into euros and dollars whenever fears of a hard Brexit emerge Capuano explains : ' This is a clear indication of the lack of confidence in the pound at the moment . It is also a recent development . ' Two to three years ago , the need for a multi-currency bank was not as great as it has become today . A good majority of Fineco 's clients use the multi-currency service . ' Capuano says half of his clients are using the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ per cent consist of the financially savvy or ' city type ' investors , who want to have their cash reserve in a different currency to diversify their assets . While a savvy few are taking advantage of currency volatility , Capuano feels that this should be a tactic used by more investors . He said : ' Payment is an obvious need to have a multi-currency account but diversifying the cash reserve in this way should be the first step before buying bonds or shares or funds in a different currency from the British pound . ' However , despite the currency service 's suggestion that this may be wise , anyone considering doing so should remember that currency markets are notoriously volatile and difficult to predict . Currencies can often move in the opposite direction to expectations on events and regularly go one way , before rapidly switching direction . Capuano argues that trying to bet against sterling through investment funds holding assets overseas carries more risk than currency accounts . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ currency risk and the risk that the performance is negative ' , he says . ' With multi-currency accounts you just have a currency component . The cash is there and can be used instantly for payments while a fund requires some days to have assets sold before investors can get cash . ' Fineco Bank 's multicurrency index is a ratio that oscillates between zero and 100 . Zero means all conversions are from other currency back into pounds while numbers closer to 100 means that all the conversions are being made from sterling to other currencies . The pound has had a volatile ride with Brexit unresolved , Prime Minister Theresa May ousted from office , and Tory party infighting about who should be the next leader and Prime Minister Capuano said his stats showed that the European Elections saw another outflow into other currencies . He said : ' We took only the British clients/voters and analysed what happens during Brexit announcements and what happens after . The behaviour you see an increase of outflow into other currency diversifying and hedging risk @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ exchange platform , Moneycorp , say they have also noticed a significant increase in transaction volumes in light of Brexit . They say that the balance in currency movements has been multi-directional and dependent on people 's view of a hard or soft Brexit . Alessandro Capuano , global head of brokerage at Fineco Bank believes that more mainstream investors should take advantage in the pounds ' volatility and invest in other currencies Zoe Dawson Williams , chief customer officer Moneycorp says : ' Those who believe a hard Brexit is likely are moving their pounds into euros and USD . However , those who are reading into Brexit talks positively and anticipating a positive move in the pound are moving out of euros and into pounds . ' Many of our customers , who want to move their money to an alternative currency , are setting up " forward contracts " , which allows them to lock in a prevailing exchange rate for a period of up to two years regardless of any up or down movements in the wider current market . ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ savings purposes the widespread adoption of this tactic is still far away , believes Prajit Nanu CEO and co-founder of InstaReM a digital cross-border money transfer . ' When it comes to safeguarding money ahead of Brexit , its non-UK nationals who are ahead of the game . At InstaReM , our customer base largely comprises the Asian communities in the UK and recently we 've noticed a steady rise in money transfers . ' These are transfers to countries such as India , Sri Lanka , Bangladesh , and The Philippines -- even Australia . ' While it is obvious that Brexit is n't the sole reason behind this rise in transfers - it is certainly a factor - and the uncertainty around Brexit is prompting many from these communities to move additional money back to their native countries . ' While clients are asking about reducing exposure to the UK and want to hold more dollar-denominated assets or gold Daniel Bland , investment manager at EQ Investors , believes its better to hold a well-diversified , global portfolio of investments exposed to a wide @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ portfolio might for example have 25/30 per cent in the UK and the rest overseas to take advantage of high growth areas such as emerging markets . ' As long as you can invest for at least five , preferably 10 years , you can ride out both the currency and stock market volatility . ' After the referendum result the pound fell nearly 15 per cent against the Euro : Zoe Dawson Williams , chief customer officer at Moneycorp says : ' Since then the Pound has become a lightning rod for Brexit negotiations . ' We have seen huge swings on the back of significant votes in parliament , with investors losing confidence in the Pound anytime the news suggests a hard Brexit and sterling recovering on signs of a soft Brexit . ' The Article 50 legal challenge : In October 2016 there were talks to find out if Theresa May could trigger Article 50 without parliamentary approval .

The ways in which journals are indexed online is essential to how they can be searched for and found . Inclusion in certain indexes is also closely linked to quality assessment , with research funders often requiring their grantees to publish in outlets listed in certain indexes . In this post Danielle Padula explains the importance of good journal indexing and how journals that apply key standards can increase the reach and impact of their publications . If a research article is published without being added to any academic indexes , does it have an impact ? Contrary to the thought experiment -- " If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it , does it make a sound ? " -- there is a pretty definitive answer to the former question . Intangible impacts aside , it 's almost certain that without being added to academic indexes an article 's impact will be pretty muffled . Indexing is vital to the reputation , reach , and consequently impacts of journal articles . Reports in recent years have found that academic indexes , such as Google Scholar , PubMed , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the top research starting points for most scholars . Additionally , many scholars prioritize referencing and submitting to journals that are included in leading indexes , because indexing is a marker of journal quality . Every organization publishing journals should prioritize indexing , to increase the reach of their articles and better serve the needs of researchers . For journal publishers to achieve the widest indexing impacts , meeting both basic publishing standards AND the highest technical indexing standards is key . From there , indexes will have different inclusion requirements such as : Publication scope : Many indexes only accept journals that publish within particular subject areas . For example , MEDLINE and PubMed Central only index journals in the biomedical and life sciences . Editorial board and policies : Often indexes require the full names and affiliations of journal editors , as well as information about journal editorial policies such as a publicly available peer review policy and publication ethics statement . Level of publishing professionalization : Some indexes look at publishing professionalization including readability of articles and production quality . Archiving @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ articles are being archived by a long-term digital preservation service . Once journals meet core publishing standards , like those outlined above , they 'll be eligible for relevant indexes . But , to get the most value out of indexing , journals must also meet the highest technical standards . There are two main models for how indexes collect and process information : Web crawlers : Some indexes , such as Google Scholar , index journal articles on their own via web crawlers , which are automated internet programs that " crawl " websites to gather information . In order for crawlers to easily identify new content , publishers must apply metadata to articles and maintain a website structure that complies with the index 's requirements . Metadata/content deposits : Many indexes do not have web crawlers and instead require information to be submitted to them in machine-readable formats . In this case , machine-readable metadata files ( often XML ) must be deposited into the index so the index can process article information and know what to return in search results . While @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , there are steps that publishers must take to ensure articles can be crawled . For example , for an academic search engine like Google Scholar , technical steps include : It is important to note that most academic indexes do n't have web crawlers and instead require machine-readable metadata to be submitted to them . While some indexes have forms for making manual metadata deposits , directly depositing machine-readable metadata files into indexes is the highest technical standard and yields the best results . Machine-readable metadata files are richer , more uniform , and less prone to inaccuracies as compared to manually entered metadata . They also have data mining potential ( or text-and-data-mining potential if they are full-text files ) . Articles that allow for text and data mining can be processed by online scripts and machine-learning tools to analyze article information for purposes such as language or citation analysis . For example , Scite , a new software provider , is using machine learning to scan article citations to check if papers have been supported or contradicted . The technical indexing standard for academic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the JATS format , which stands for Journal Article Tag Suite . Whereas XML is a language , JATS is a type of syntax . It is a specific way of formatting XML files developed by the National Information Standards Organization ( NISO ) . JATS is preferred or required by many academic indexes , including all National Library of Medicine indexes and search engines ( i.e. PubMed , PubMed Central , and MEDLINE ) . cOAlition S also strongly recommends that articles be formatted in JATS XML in its updated Plan S implementation guidelines . Producing XML in the JATS format is on the more technical side , but software can automate much of the process . Software can also be used to generate full-text XML files and avoid steps like having to manually add and check for copyright data or citation metadata , saving time and costs . Journals should at least produce front-matter XML files for all articles with basic metadata like article title , publisher , and DOI . However , as noted , full-text JATS XML files are better for text and data @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ PubMed Central . Full-text JATS XML files include all of the metadata mentioned as well as the full text of the article . You get what you put in Including journal articles in relevant indexes can greatly improve their reputation and reach , providing greater impact potential for journals and the scholars publishing in them . Inclusion in leading indexes is an indicator of journal quality to scholars and their institutions , and indexes are one of the main outlets scholars use to find articles , serving as powerful discovery outlets . But , the potential benefits of indexes are dependent on the quality of the machine-readable metadata and article files journals put into them . For journal publishers and authors to get the most impacts from indexing , journals taking steps to meet both the highest publishing and technical standards is key .

Catharine Parker-Littler 's life story has been a series of incredible twists and turns . She currently lives on a luxury 36ft catamaran in Plymouth Marina . For most people that sounds like living the dream - and in a way it is - but it was not Catharine 's dream . She and her husband Chris had a five-year plan to move from Yorkshire , sell up , buy a yacht and live out their retirement years sailing around the Mediterranean . But tragically , that was not to be . Catharine recalls how it all started back in 2013 with an offhand remark . Her husband was a martial arts expert who was recovering from a shoulder injury when they went away for a short break on the east coast of Yorkshire . Catharine said : " We were sitting like two old people in our green camping chairs looking at the view when I happened to say , ' Chris have you got any unfulfilled dreams in your life ?

In a 13-hour surgery he had his oesophagus and three-quarters of his stomach removed . " The only anchor pulling him forward was this dream , " Catharine said . " We kept the dream going . The surgeon said he had never seen anybody recover quite as well as Chris did - he was helped by the fact that he was a super fit athlete . " In 2016 he had had a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ scans over two years showed he was clear of cancer . Chris retired from working as a senior probation officer and they chartered a catamaran in Greece for 10-day trial run . Chris skippered a crew of eight around five different Greek islands . " It was stunning - it was beautiful , " Catharine remembers . They returned , put their house on the market , with Catharine able to carry on her high-powered career working remotely from the boat .

" A month later he was on morphine for the pain and was sent back to the Bradford Royal Infirmary . " Three weeks later they sat on the bed and told us it was terminal cancer and he had weeks to live , " Catharine said . He died after six weeks in the hospice - with Catharine constantly beside him - on February 13 , 2018 . Afterwards she was cocooned by friends and family as she tried to come to terms with her loss and grief and trauma . It is what happened next that makes her story even more remarkable . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 60s , admits that when she came back to her catamaran , which had been locked up for months and cared for by the marina staff , she never thought she would stay . " To be honest - I wanted to throw myself in the sea , " Catharine admitted . " I kept putting off coming back but I knew I needed to make a decision . " But for the second time in her life - during periods of overwhelming suffering - she describes how the course of her life has changed dramatically after an almost supernatural experience . " For about three hours after getting here with my sister I cried and cried and cried , " she said . " Then I went into the bedroom . Whilst I was in there one of these experiences happened to me again . It was an overwhelming , irrational , almost supernatural feeling of love - like a really , really strong sense of ' You will be alright ' . She is now happy living alone and pottering about on her vessel @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " The feeling of wanting to jump in the sea had gone . I came out and my tears had dried up , my puffy eyes had gone - my sister took one look at me and saw that I looked totally changed .

And I have my amazingly supportive church family at Redeemer Church in Plymouth around me . I encourage anyone in deep grief to find a church . " Catharine had a similar experience when she was young and had suicidal thoughts after life took a few wrong turns . " I had been thrown out of nursing school and I was pretty much a wreck . Sometimes you are with the wrong people and I had gradually gone off track . " I went and sat in an empty church and started crying - I even thought I might have to end my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

I thought ' This is better than being on drugs ' - just an incredible euphoric feeling and every day since I have had it . " Catharine become a Christian and went on to have a high-flying and varied career - firstly going back to get her nursing qualifications and then travelling the world working in child health , as a midwife , helping refugees and immigrants .

" As leader of the party in Scotland , my position exists independently of government . I do n't have to sign a no-deal pledge to continue to serve . " Davidson also rejected any suggestions of the party in Scotland splitting from the UK , with the idea having previously been mooted around the time of the last Scottish Tory leadership race . " We are a devolved party , just as Scotland is devolved , " said Davidson .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'make money out of damaging the world' does not involve a causee who participates in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a general means of making money, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The Big Issue : You have been politically engaged for all of your career . Is there an urgency to your current campaign that was n't there before ? Vivienne Westwood : The problem is staring us in the face and it was n't staring us in the face earlier on . That 's why at the turn of the century Henry Ford could say " history is bunk " , the future is going to get better and better . But it started with industrialisation and things have actually gotten worse and worse , and now we face mass extinction . But we are making some progress , thanks to Greta Thunberg and the school strikes and Extinction Rebellion . They 've forced our government to declare a climate crisis and set targets . Having said that , we ca n't keep stalling . The targets used to be 2020 , now they 're 2050 . It 's always forever in the future . It 's never here ! But we 're facing real problems right now , so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ feel are the main things stopping us from taking quick , decisive action ? The tricky thing is that even if the government wanted to achieve a target of 2020 or 2030 , they could n't until they stop the rotten systems that feed it . Imagine that climate change is a fire and they 've agreed : ' Yes , we 'll put water on that fire . ' The problem is , they 're throwing petrol on the flames at the same time . The petrol is the operation of the financial system that is making it worse . How can anything change in real terms if they do n't disrupt the corrupt systems in place ? What do you think should be done ? One of the things I 'm calling for is a stop to the subsidy to fossil fuel . It 's ? 5.3tn a year .

What we 're aiming for is that no one owns the land , it 's just administered and there 's only one kind of tax -- we call it rent . You do n't own anything , you just pay rent . It 's about community -- liberty , equality , fraternity . For example , if you asked the executive body to rent a piece of land to build a house they would give you permission to do that . Then if you decided to build another house and you wanted to rent this one , then you could do that . So the people who rented the house would pay you -- the landlord -- rent , and you the landlord would still have to pay that ground rent to the public purse . That 's the way the public purse funds the National Health Service and other national needs .

It 's absolutely incredible and wonderful to see . You 've got Greta 's guys -- those people who protest with their parents every month . It 's really , really great .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes a state or condition ('protective layers that have developed') resulting from a past event ('growing up with a mother with a complex and damaged character'). There is no causer NP subject acting on a causee NP object to induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

I agree Yo'B with your comments about the judgements made by others regarding relationships . I feel sure that for Meghan Daum , part of her mourning is the writing of this piece and for that reason , we have to stand back and allow her to write what she writes . I can accept that for some readers the mothers inability to answer back makes them uncomfortable and there is also the belief that the position of parent means children should show respect inherent for that alone . But I do n't subscribe to that . As a parent we should know we will , one day , be handed a ' bill ' for the cost of our parenting , the good and the bad , and it may take a myriad of forms . Understanding the reasons for the flaws of a parent does n't mean they escape the consequences of those flaws . I have an elderly mother who is not in great health and may die at some point . I also had a father who was sick for many years and finally died over the holidays when I was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lesson I took from spending time around the intensive care wards is that every family is different and unique , and the experience of grief for one person or family is not going to be the same as that of a different person or family . To me , that is OK . We all have different personalities , different relationships with the person who is ill or dying , different ways of coping . Unfortunately these differences make it very hard to talk about the experience of dealing with a relative , especially a parent ( and in the case of daughters , especially a mother ) who is in poor health or dying . Whatever you say or do will be perceived by some people as understandable and relatable , by others as weird and by still others as absolutely horrible , because everyone is seeing it through the lens of their own personalities and family experiences - which are not yours . I am constantly amazed by how judgmental people can get about strangers ' relationships with their own parents . I find these types of articles @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ families run and being reminded that there is a wide spectrum between totally 100 percent happy Ozzie and Harriet family life , and completely dysfunctional toxic family life . I can see the frustrations inherent in your story but from an outsider 's perspective , neither your mother nor grandmother sounds like a horrible person ... then again I do n't have to live with them 24/7 , I have my own situation . I suspect as more and more middle-aged baby boomers have to face the aging and death of their parents we will see an explosion of these essays . Dear Meghan , I need a little light in my life at the moment and I thoroughly enjoyed your essay on your mother 's death . My husband could n't understand why I was laughing so much at an article on death and dying . Scratch the surface , and we all come from " dysfunctional " families -- some just a little more dysfunctional than others . At work we once had a " crazy sister 's " contest -- I won hands down . I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it is pretty insane -- your family , however wins the " crazy family " contest in my book . My mother came to die on me in Alaska , though we had n't seen each other in years . She was 63 and had lung cancer and colon cancer -- so I know a little of your ordeal . I was " there " for her during her last drugged months , but only out of duty , not out of love . -- She had asked that I take her ashes out to sea for " burial " -- it only took me 27 years to get them in southern California cove . These many years later , I talk with friends who remember my mother as a fun , intelligent woman and I can actually concede that she had some positive qualities . But , the negative influences of one 's mother ( and grandmother ) will always remain -- just have to take a deep breath and laugh at one 's situation -- Anyway thanks for making my day . I found the relentless @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ very trying and got so fed up that I gave up three quarters of the way through . No compassion or understanding that this woman was a human being as well as a mother . I felt sorry for the mother . She did nothing that bad to be treated the way she was by the children . Appalling . This phrase was exactly what resonated with me ; its got nothing to do with haughty and dissatisfied daughters , and everything to do with having been made to play a parental role too early and inappropriately in life by ' needy ' and incompetent parents . I think thats what you 're missing . And good for you if you 're not resentful . ( Although I would love to hear what your children have to say about you . ) Thanks for writing this . As someone who has an equally infuriatingly self-obsessed mother who is now in her dotage ( although no less narcissistic ! ) I laughed out loud several times and now have an idea that I 'm not the only one to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Thank you for sharing . A fantastic post , to which I relate a great deal . You and MuftySludge are quite right about death being taboo , and how unprepared we are for it , despite the fact that all of us have to experience loss at some point . I lost my father as a teenager and it pretty much destroyed my entire life . I was n't the only one unprepared , however , and friends who did n't know how to cope with someone who was grieving started keeping their distance . Eventually the distance became permanent . I felt like I had some sort of infectious disease , and that they were keeping away because they were worried they might catch death , so if they kept their distance they would not have to go through it . That compounded how badly I coped , because I basically had to do it alone . My life can be roughly divided into the good half , before he died , and everything that 's happened since . Dylan Thomas was right when he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ other " . Because my mother died a few years ago , after a prolonged illness , and even though that put paid to my marriage ( to someone similarly unable to cope with the concept of death , who felt that around about 4 weeks should be more than enough time to grieve and after that it was time to pull myself together ... ) , it somehow did n't feel as bad . I did learn lessons the hard way from losing my dad previously . I think you made a good point about the loneliness of grief too . It 's an existential loneliness , because you suddenly realise just how alone we are all . I think that assessment is a bit uncharitable . Death is a difficult territory and we do n't have much guidance for it . Stuff happens that is so outside of the realms of what should be happening , what you feel you can cope with , that you fall back on cliches that you 've seen in the movies or books . Like holding hands because someone is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you for this moment . all things that no longer have any great import to the dying person , who is just trying to hold it together and to hold back the terror as death nears . This is very true . What we do n't expect is the dying to say they are frightened of death , or to be in denial about it or angry . We are conditioned that people will accept impending death with quiet acceptance . When my father was dying I was quite shocked by the panicked denial from someone normally quite calm and rational . I do n't know why we expect the really quite common fear of death to miraculously disappear when you are actually dying ... I recognise so much of this , and so much I do not . My mother 's death three years ago affected me more than I could ever have imagined . There was the immediate horror . The phone call , the anger that she 'd gone on the first night I 'd had off from caring for her for weeks @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could n't let go , the hilarity of the undertaker in his polyester morning suit and incompetently delivered professional sympathy , the relief that the thing I 'd dreaded most had happened , the relief that I would n't have to hate looking after her any more ... But the worst of it took time . I had constructed my world with rationality , logic and the sure expectation that ultimately , if you had enough information , you could understand anything . I was contemptuous of any other way of thinking . Suddenly this flimsy edifice was hit by a tsunami of feeling rising up from the vast waters of the petrel and the porpoise . I shudder at my prior complacency . My confidence was destroyed , and I 'd had no idea it had stemmed from my mother 's love . I unfairly resented my girlfriend for not being able to give me what I thought I needed and fought endless proxy battles over walking the dog or doing the washing up . Like a horrible clich ? , despite a lifetime of atheism , I suddenly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Epicurean paradox . I 'd cry at the most inane TV . I was angry and confused and lost , and , most of all , lonely . To a large extent I still am , although things are certainly much better . And , I like to think , I now have a much fuller experience of life . Why am I sharing all this ? Because death is taboo and as MuftySludge said above , ' our society has no interest in honesty about death ' . We do n't talk about it and I suspect that most , like I was , are woefully unprepared for grief . And yet the death of an adult man 's mother is no rare tragedy , it 's the most normal thing that can happen . Well it certainly was ' a long read ' . I expect it was cathartic for the writer but truly , it did n't need , we did n't need , at least half of that detail . Why is it so many people think their lives must be fascinating to others ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ read . It was an excruciating read but gripping because it was so well written . I takes a lot of courage to reveal this kind of stuff . The relationships we have with our parents rarely shape up to be what we think we need but there 's the rub , WE think we need , not what just ' is ' . So that expectations are one half of the sandwich and resentment is the other . Perhaps acceptance brings some peace ? A counsellor once said to me that in the end the resolution of all our crossed swords and mish mash of confused relationships comes down to two things ; forgiveness and repentance . Perhaps you think it does n't ' conform to the dying parent narrative ' . That was n't something I raised.Glad you found it ' honest and moving ' . It 's not for you to declare that the ' article is imbued with love ' though . In your reading of it it is , yes , but that is your opinion only . And , really , it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Exactly the same with my mom ... she wants ( now ) for us to be what we 've never been . I consciously try to make it happen but walk away angry with myself for not being able to be that way and with her for pretending that we have always been sweetness and light . Despite all the romanticism that permeates death in some people 's belief systems , there 's no good way to die . The last thing my Dad said to me before he died was screaming for me to help him and to relieve his pain , which I could not . My Mother died after a series of strokes lasting 6 years which stripped away her humanity and personality , one destroyed brain cell at a time , as she lost memories , motor skills , sight , hearing and above all , dignity . Along with their dying and deaths came recriminating relationships with other members of the family and the realisation that everybody dies , but not necessarily when most convenient for them or their families @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for them are quite literally staggering . The ideal of people dying surrounded by their loved ones , holding lucid conversations until the last moment is ludicrous and unachievable in my experience . Nowadays I have a bad joke about being an orphan . I am , I say to others , glad that we 're on the other side of my parents ' deaths . I am indeed glad , because no matter how painful it was for them , their pain ended , whilst it is still painful for me , all these years later . That was an amazing read . I hold out hope that my daughter will love me and like me with the same razored honesty as the author during my life-time . But I 'd want her to hold my hand , with love . To me some things are worse than death . I found myself becoming increasingly irritated by this article , the more I read . Poor woman , what impossibly high standards her daughter set for her . I grew up in a disfunctional household , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with alcoholism thrown into the mix . I suffered , hold my resentments and struggle with protective layers that have developed out of growing up with a mother with a complex and damaged character . But , even in my most cynical moments , I do n't think I ever doubted that her life must have been more difficult than mine . I could n't understand this woman 's view of her mother until I read the line " Neither my brother nor I had ever shown an interest in reproducing " . So terribly cold and clinical . No wonder she never understood her mother . There 's nothing like having to try to do the job yourself to humble the haughty stance of the dissatisfied daughter . It 's bloody hard work , and if you happen to come from a childhood which itself was n't ideal , it 's terrifying . What a pity that the author could n't find what she liked in her mother until she was stripped of everything she 'd tried to make of herself . Unless I 'm missing something , my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I did n't find this touching at all - I found it hard-nosed and unfeeling . One might think that somebody so critical of her mother and grandmother would consider her own familial similarities . But no . The author seems impervious and instead perpetuates a third generation of bitterness . ' A significantly different style ' ( repeat , repeat ) or ' appalling ' ? Just to mention - the word ' love ' appears once in this article . Unless you grew up with a narcissistic parent , you ca n't begin to understand what passes for love in that relationship . The author did n't have to hold her hand at all , and the mother would have been a bottomless well of need whether she did or not . What you see as cold , I see as a gift and a self-sacrifice . Obviously , it would be great if all mothers were warm and loving . But some are not . If you see the interactions in this story as cold and lacking in love , you are quite probably @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Maybe one day you will be , but in the meantime ... do n't judge . That is n't fair . I understand exactly what fergd means . While the author paints a poignant portrait of family members separated by their own insecurities and fears , at the same time she shows that she is no more capable of genuine , healthy behavior than they are . As a child of abuse , I undersand completely : we can not share what we do not have . |

WINNING is everything in professional sport , and anyone who denies that assertion clearly does n't understand the nature of the beast . Oh , sure , there are lots of people in sport who practically made a career out of being runners-up , but its winners we remember , and rightly so . Take Jack Nicklaus for example -- the Golden Bear is reckoned to have been the greatest player ever , a legend for his 18 Major wins as a professional . Yet did you know that he finished second in 19 Majors ? Who mentions that when they talk about Nicklaus ? See what I mean ? When rugby union , for example , was an amateur sport , supporters of the various nations , districts and clubs were disappointed when their side was beaten , but as long as the players and coaches gave of their best , everyone shook hands and moved on . Not now . These days professional rugby players and the men who coach them simply do not get the time to lose and , quite rightly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ why they lost . Ask Gregor Townsend . The Scotland head coach found out last weekend just what a poor performance by his team can do to a reputation , and even though it was a friendly and a warm-up for the World Cup next month , there were eejits calling for Townsend 's head . Yep , that would have been a good solution -- switch the boss when the gang is already in bits . It would be like parachuting in Boris Johnson to try and save the Tory Government 's neck over Brexit -- oh , they did that and it 's going really for the good ship Brititanic ( sic ) , is n't it ? Clearly , like BoJo outside of England , Scotland have a problem when playing away from Murrayfield , and as far as I know , Murrayfield is in Edinburgh -- it had better be as I 'm going there as a fan today -- and not in Japan . And that is the problem . Scotland have to travel afar for this World Cup and miraculous Twickenham comebacks apart @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ some time . Townsend loves the expansive game , and when his players step up to the mark and move themselves and the ball quickly , Scotland are a joy to watch . In attack , they are running the angles that Townsend himself exploited in his glory days as a player , and there is enough inventiveness and creativity in his first XV to beat any team in the world -- if they are all on their day and playing at Murrayfield . The trouble is that Scottish rugby demands a winning team as well as an attractive one , and while I would love it to be the case , I 'm beginning to believe you ca n't always have both at the same time , especially if they are not at home . Today 's return leg against France and the home and away prep matches against Georgia were designed , I believe , to show the Scottish players just how physical the competition in Japan will be . I just hope our best players -- Hogg , Laidlaw , Russell , Barclay , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that the forwards improve greatly against France to give the backs some kind of platform , and then we ' go tough ' upfront against Georgia and get enough ball to beat them in the backs . That did n't happen against France last weekend , but hopefully , it will happen today , though some of those French backs look to be quite excellent match-winning players . The problem is that Townsend 's " fast game " is n't guaranteed to be a winning one . France leaned all over the Scots in Nice and squeezed the life out of the Scottish game plan -- and worryingly , there did not appear to be a Plan B which other nations always seem to have . Especially when protecting even a narrow lead . How many times have we seen the All Blacks , Ireland and England in recent years just switch to safety first , phase-after-phase , ball-up-the-jumper rugby and playout time to protect a lead ? The worry with Scotland is that they even if they can get ahead in games , they can lose the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a case in point . And do n't forget , Scotland actually got into the lead against England at Twickers and somehow contrived to let the home side snatch a draw . It is no secret that in some parts of the sport here , Scottish rugby is not an entirely happy ship at the moment . There are rumbles of discontent over the various shenanigans among the Murrayfield blazerati , the worries over the Super Six are genuine , and there are continuing concerns over the state of the club game , but if Scotland go to the World Cup in Japan and qualify from the group stage then I suspect the pressure on those at the top of the sport will disappear overnight . Make the semi-final , and even the final and the current leadership will be lauded to the heavens , and all the problems will be forgotten about , though that would be a mistake as the various internal situations need to be addressed . The SRU 's main responsibility in the eyes of most Scots is to put out a winning team @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but have yet to find a winning formula furth of west Edinburgh 's finest acres . Scotland needs to learn to win home and away because this is the World Cup , and the price of failure is doom .

What separates Manchester City and Liverpool from the rest of the Premier League is that they have settled squads which excelled last season , playing to their optimum level almost every week in a brilliant title race that City eventually just edged . Sustaining that lead is so difficult and this is why Pep Guardiola got such a kick out of retaining the title . It 's a huge challenge for players to be so consistently good , barely dropping a point . On the eve of a new campaign , the question is : how long can that go on for ? The law of averages says that it only becomes more difficult to stay at that level without injuries to key players or a simple loss of momentum intervening . It 's inevitable and it 's human nature ; as great as City are , they are not machines . So I would have to take my hat off to Guardiola and City if they made it three Premier League titles @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not be repeated in the modern era . But on the other hand , it 's the reason why I feel the door may be slightly ajar for Liverpool . City have lost an important character in club captain Vincent Kompany . Every team needs a leader and I 'm not sure at this stage who will take up that mantle at the club . Sergio Aguero 's longevity is another slight concern for me . How long can he sustain his appetite and fitness ? Guardiola is aiming to steer Manchester City to a third successive Premier League title : Credit : Getty Liverpool fell short by just one point short last term and I think their Champions League victory will give them momentum and even greater determination to finish top this season . I think there will be a fire burning inside them and a sense that City rode their luck . I 'm a big fan of their back four and goalkeeper , and I fancy Mohamed Salah to have a big campaign . Although he scored 27 goals he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ see him coming back hungry to repeat the sort of numbers he racked up in his first year at Anfield . There is a slightly different mindset when defending a title , and that makes me think City could be vulnerable . Liverpool played well against them in Sunday 's Community Shield and , with Europe conquered , Jurgen Klopp can make domestic dominance his clear priority . Tottenham are settled into their new home now and I think they expect a massive season . They have shown they can keep pace with the leaders 75 per cent of the time ; their challenge is to improve on that and never let the gap grow to more than three points . I seem to say this every year but they still do n't have an alternative to Harry Kane , who has been shown to be injury-prone . Tottenham 's top-four prospects appear very strong but they remain too reliant on the fitness of Harry Kane . Credit : Getty Son Heung-Min and Lucas Moura are very good but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Spurs have n't thrown money at this issue . The top two may be out of reach but I think a top four place is assured for Tottenham , and I expect them to finish third . Chelsea may have lost Eden Hazard and be banned from making further signings , but I believe Frank Lampard is a smart appointment as manager and I think they can claim that last Champions League spot . It would be a massive achievement , though . Lampard was only away from Stamford Bridge for five years , so he remains part of the fabric of the club -- as does his No2 Jody Morris , who used to work in the academy . Chelsea face a fight to qualify for the Champions League ahead of Arsenal and Manchester United . Credit : Getty They have the support of the fans , who have had to temper expectations slightly , and that 's a big plus . I think Lampard is potentially a very good manager . He has been in football all of his life , has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ advice and is bright enough to put it all together . He 's always believed in himself and that will be no different now . Arsenal , meanwhile , are a funny one . In Aaron Ramsey they have lost a player who could have been their heartbeat , as Steven Gerrard was for Liverpool or Lampard for Chelsea -- not necessarily at their level , but something close . At the back they have been uncertain , and questions remain over whether their defenders are good enough . They have tried to address that by signing Kieran Tierney and David Luiz but the fact that the situation was up in the air two days before the season starts is not ideal . Arsenal must improve defensively if they are to finish higher than last season . Credit : Getty Manchester United 's top six status is under threat . There is no semblance of a powerful team , just a gathering of international footballers . Some do n't want to be there and some -- Alexis Sanchez , Romelu Lukaku -- are superstars for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ David de Gea looked a nervous wreck last season . Harry Maguire has been brought in at great expense to be that rock and repair the relationship between goalkeeper and defence which for the last 18 months has looked virtually non-existent . Manchester United appear to be in disarray and their top-six status is under threat . Credit : Getty As we have become used to lately , there will be three leagues within the top flight and it will be fascinating to see who can break their glass ceiling . There are a handful with ambitions of gatecrashing the top six and , of those , I like the look of Everton . My old club have recruited well : Fabian Delph brings personality and experience , Moise Kean is an exciting young striker , and Idrissa Gueye has been replaced with Jean-Philippe Gbamin . I 'd like to see Richarlison step up and become a figurehead , like Kane did at Spurs . There are some lingering questions about the defence , and Michael Keane needs a really good @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this year . Leicester are another team who are widely expected to threaten the big guns and they know all about that . I like the team Manuel Pellegrini has built at West Ham and they ca n't be discounted . Wolves and Watford will be looking to build on their progress , too . Promoted teams are always at risk because they are up against sides who have come through at least one top-flight season already . They tend to have low expectation levels so they can start well , but once the Tuesday-Saturday grind kicks in they can begin to struggle . Aston Villa are a big club with a great fanbase and they have spent big to try to stay up . They have the benefit of John Terry 's knowhow in the backroom staff and I this they will survive relatively comfortably . I ca n't help thinking Sheffield United will struggle . They have a strong gameplan but it is high-risk and I wonder whether that will become untenable at some stage . Norwich have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Daniel Farke , a tight ground and good home form . They may have the little bit extra required to avoid going back down to the Championship . There are lots of relegation candidates this year , though . I 'd include Crystal Palace , Bournemouth , Southampton and Brighton in that number , and that can offer some hope to the Premier League newcomers . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes an event where Greg Taylor 'pulled out of training', which is a different construction and does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate or the specific interpretations (movement/extraction or prevention) associated with the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It lacks an NP object and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a situation where Taylor emerged from training, which is unrelated to the construction in question.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'got a huge kick out of going to the support' involves the verb 'got' with an NP object 'a huge kick', and 'out of going to the support' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Stanton , who barely looks of age to lift a pension , saw it all as a player with Hibs and Celtic , as well as Scotland , where he was capped 16 times over almost a decade from 1966 , including three times as skipper . He was assistant to Sir Alex in 1980 when Aberdeen won the first of three titles under the legendary boss , ironically clinching it at Easter Road , and if his spell as Hibs gaffer a couple of years later was less successful he remains forever fixed in the affections of fans . But first his crafty old mum , who nudged her son less than gently into the arms of Hibs with a lesson in harsh financial realities after Jambos boss Tommy Walker made a contract offer when he was with Bonnyrigg Rose . Stanton said : " I spoke with my dad and he told me to go to Hearts if I wanted . But he could n't help but speak like a supporter , even reminding me Hibs had a better strip . Pat Stanton scores in the 2-1 League Cup final victory for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ never got involved in conversations about football but she came through from the kitchen to tell us we 'd forgotten something really important -- bus fares . " I had five brothers and every Monday morning she would leave money on the kitchen table for everyone to get to work . It was cheaper , about tuppence , to go from Niddrie to Easter Road than it was Tynecastle . " Interest from Hearts forced the hand of Hibs , where I was on a schoolboy form , and manager Walter Galbraith was at the door shortly afterwards asking me to sign full-time . " Stanton said : " It was the best thing I did . One of the committee guys said , ' You know Pat , you 're a regular in the team . The big actor guy from Fountainbridge ? Lovely big guy , well liked by the players , but he was n't a regular in the first team here ' . " Every time I saw Sean Connery in the movies after that I used to think , ' What @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " Stanton 's father , Michael , kept the 10 bob note his son was given as a bus fare by former Hibs boss Hugh Shaw on his first day at the club as a kid and the currency remains one of his most treasured possessions . He said : " The proudest moment of my career is running out for the first time at Easter Road , looking up under the old scoreboard and seeing my dad stand in his usual place . " It was a game against Dundee and by coincidence Gordon Smith 's last at Easter Road after he had moved to Dens . Walter Galbraith told me to kick him . I did n't dare . Stanton was keen to tell all about his glory days with Hibs ( Image : Daily Record ) " My old man would n't have let me back in the house . " Stanton still bears the scars of one of his most memorable matches , a 2-0 defeat of Real Madrid in a challenge match at Easter Road in 1964 , masterminded @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their photo on my wall as a kid and here I was standing yards away from Ferenc Puskas . " Actually , he went over the ball on me and caught me on the ankle . " It was a big disappointment . Admittedly , for weeks afterwards I walked down Niddrie Mains Road showing off my ankle and saying , ' Do you know who did that ? ' " Stanton played more than 400 games for Hibs and was part of the Turnbull Tornadoes who set Scottish football alight in the early 70s , winning the League Cup against Celtic in 1972 . Stanton and his old Holy Cross school pal Jimmy O'Rourke scored before Kenny Dalglish gave Celtic hope late on . But Hibs held on to win their first major trophy since the Scottish Cup in 1902 and their first at the National Stadium . He said : " There had been a lot of trouble in the crowd in the previous match at Hampden so they banned a lap of honour . " On the bus @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ noses are in front on the final whistle let 's go straight to the fans ' . " It was pouring with rain but we got a huge kick out of going to the support as they had n't seen a Hibs team win at Hampden . " A strain in his relationship with Eddie Turnbull led to a reunion with Stein , this time at Celtic , and Stanton helped the Hoops to the Double in 1977 before a knee injury forced him to call time on his career . He rolls his eyes playfully that oldest son Patrick is a Celtic fan , although his youngest Kenneth , is a Hibee . So too is daughter Kirsty although her husband Graeme is a bluenose . Family is everything and it 's why proceeds from his 75th celebrations are going to charity , with Muirfield Riding Therapy and Children with Cancer and Leukaemia Advice and Support for Parents ( CCLASP ) set to benefit . Graeme and Kirsty 's youngest son Oliver , 9 , has brain damage and the riding @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ development . Stanton said : " Football has given me so much . It means a lot to be able to give something back . " ?

Instead, it describes an event where Juice WRLD cancels his participation in the Reading Festival 2019, without involving a causee or a VP2[-ing] predicate that would indicate a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes an event where Juice WRLD pulls out of a festival, which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move or preventing them from doing something through a specific means. The phrase 'pulls out of' here is used in a different context, indicating withdrawal from an event, not the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It involves opting out of receiving future marketing messages, which is a different construction where 'out of' is part of a phrasal verb 'opting out of' followed by a noun phrase, not a VP[-ing] predicate. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'out of putting pictures through the salerooms' does not involve a causee or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the trade's means of making a living, which does not align with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Sales in Switzerland A SCARCE first edition , in a ' curious ' binding , of the Marquis de Sade 's Justine which proved a surprise star turn of a Galerie Koller auction held in Zurich on February 8 , selling for a premium inclusive SFr51,168 ( ? 22,745 ) , was illustrated and described in an earlier issue of the Antiques Trade Gazette , but illustrated and described here are a few more of the highlights . UK : ROBERT Garrard is a heavyweight in the Victorian silver market , renown for large and imposing tablewares produced for the great and the good of mid-late 19th century society . And a fine example of the Garrard output was on offer at the Bournemouth Auction Galleries in March . SWITZERLAND : NOWADAYS the trade makes much of its living out of putting pictures through the salerooms , but there can be few more spectacular profits in recent months than the ? 200,000 St James 's dealer David Mason made out of this Albert Anker ( 1831-1910 ) oil , right , Strickendes M ? dchen which sold for SFr550,000 ( ? 239,130 ) at Christie 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ March 23 . UK : WHILE Christie 's sale of the collection of the Marchioness of Dufferin and Ava lacked much of the memorabilia one so often associates with these events , the personal gap was filled in some measure by the elements from The Owl House . UK : THE Christie 's South Kensington sale of March 19 fielded no fewer than three copies of the book that was the main source of western knowledge of Japan in the 18th century , the two-volume History of Japan ... written by Englebert Kaempfer . UK : WITH the re-branding of Sotheby 's saleroom in Billingshurst ( see the News Briefing section - ' Sotheby 's revamp Sussex operation ' ) Summers Place leaves behind its image as Sotheby 's last saleroom foothold in the UK provinces and assumes its position as the company 's second stronghold in the South . UK : FOR ' British Decorative Arts ' read ' British Decorative Ceramics ' , or at least that is the way it looked at Christie 's South Kensington ( 15/10 per cent buyer 's premium @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the extent that they accounted for four-fifths of the 419-lot auction . UK : AS good-quality traditional antiques become harder to find -- no piece of furniture made more than ? 1500 among the 902 lots at Bristol -- collectables are becoming more and more of a commercial proposition at auction . UK : DESPITE the irritation of losing contact with a US telephone bidder on the way , the auctioneers managed to secure a bid of ? 3500 from Arden on the principal colour plate lot in the sale -- a six volume , second series set of J-J.Linden 's Iconographie des Orchid ? es of 1895-1900 , presenting 273 chromolitho plates . UK : THE art trade generally classifies pictures as being either " commercial " or " academic " and it was generally the later term which best described the quality on offer at Phillips ' ( 15/10 per cent buyer 's premium ) March 19 sale of The Lloyd Collection of pictures in Oxford . UK : TOP LOT in this sale was a 1668 edition of Gervase Markham 's A @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , first issued in 1623 , which incorporates half a dozen works by this important but prolific and commercially inventive writer on agriculture , who was not averse to putting different titles to what were essentially the same works or to re-issuing unsold copies of new books under new titles . UK : NEXT year , with the beginning of a new millennium , 19th century furniture will seem far older than it actually is . But for some time now the finer pieces have been making prices comparable to their 18th century exemplars and this was certainly the case when this late 19th century satinwood and mahogany breakfront bookcase came up for sale at Heathcote Ball ( 10 per cent buyer 's premium ) in Leicester on February 25. |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of', and the phrase 'having your personal information profiled in this way' does not function as a VP2[-ing] predicate with a causee. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate structure. Instead, it uses 'opted out of competing' which is an intransitive use of 'opt out' followed by a gerund, not involving a causee or the specific interpretations (movement/extraction or prevention) characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

THERE will be an 80 's throwback in Birmingham this weekend when the most stacked British men 's 1500m field assembled since the days of Seb Coe , Steve Cram and Steve Ovett battles it out for just three spots at next month 's World Championships in Doha . Moreover , of the five main contenders for the places , four of them just happen to be Scottish . Let 's go by their times this year . Fastest this year so far is Charlie Da'Vall Grice of England , who stunned onlookers with a time of 3.30.62 in Monaco this year . Next is Edinburgh 's Josh Kerr , an emerging 21-year-old whose 3.33.60 earlier in the season shattered Scottish marks . Next up , all of 0.36 secs back , is his Edinburgh AC pal Jake Wightman , a Commonwealth bronze medallist who has returned to his best after injury . Glasgow 's Neil @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fastest in the UK this year . Which only leaves the veteran smarts of European 3,000m indoor silver medallist Chris O'Hare , and a raft of other young contenders such as fast-rising Scots such as Sol Sweeney and Jamie Williamson . Whoever wins the day , it promises to be quite race . And such battles - perhaps some on a smaller scale - will occur all throughout this weekend 's British championships at the Alexander Stadium in Birmingham , even if Laura Muir has opted out of competing as she builds up her form again following a calf injury . " It is a bit like the 80 's again , when you have all these British 1500m runners vying for a spot year on year at the moment , " Gourley told Herald Sport as he travelled down to Birmingham . " It is exciting . " It is hard to say there is one real favourite - it probably depends who you ask , " the 24-year-old added . " But I can categorically say that I am not the favourite . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ very much comfortable about going in under the radar . But if people are overlooking me or any of the other Scots for that matter they might be in trouble . " It 's a little bit hard to predict how the final will go , " he added . " No one is likely to take it very hard from the gun but it will be a very fast finish and you will need to position yourself . " Jake , Charlie , Josh , Chris all have similar strengths . They all finish very strongly , and do n't necessarily go from too far out . So I would n't like to predict what will happen , because I really do n't know . But you are going to see a battle of positioning as I would put it and Chris has always been very good at it . I think if people are writing him off that is n't particularly clever . " This has been a topsy turvy old season for Gourley , who was cruelly deprived the chance to tilt for what @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hometown of Glasgow when he was struck down by a fever just hours after qualifying in style for the 1500m final . The experience has made him even more determined to maximise whatever medal chances come his way . " I do n't know if I will ever really get over that , " says Gourley . " But I ca n't say I have n't been able to use it as motivation , in fact I definitely have . I will never take it for granted any more being in those positions . " It is difficult to learn from the situation because you do n't know exactly what went wrong , " he added . " At the same time , I had that opportunity , for all the world it seemed as though my preparation had gone perfectly . And it all went in one day . " It just made me realise there are n't that many opportunities as a professional athletes where you are in the final and in with a chance of getting a medal . Psychologically , it has just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ going to be absolutely no room for error in the short window of opportunity I have as a professional athlete . " I am quietly confident . I guess you could say I had an uncharacteristic race at the London Diamond League recently but we identified what went wrong there , and it was almost like something clicked a few weeks ago and training started to go well again . I am quite confident with the preparation I have had doing the 800m at the Scottish Championships . And I am excited to see if it will pay off at the weekend . " After the disappointment of the indoors it would be a bit of redemption for me personally if I could get to a world championships . It looks like it would need a top two finish for myself - because I am certainly not going to rely on the selectors , which did n't go my way last year . The end goal is still the Tokyo Olympics , but the worlds is certainly a big stepping stone towards it . I have n't been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like I really need that living into an Olympic year . It would be huge for me . " Readers ' comments : You are personally liable for the content of any comments you upload to this website , so please act responsibly .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of nothing' is a complement of the complex preposition 'out of' and does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate.

MALCOLM Knight spends his days surrounded by faces . There are wood-carved Japanese Noh masks , a Russian hand puppet of Petrushka and eye-catching Sri Lankan marionettes of a snake charmer and a hermit . Wander through his workspace and you will see the ballet dancer Anna Pavlova reimagined as a butterfly , alongside vivid pieces that celebrate Mexico 's Day of the Dead and pay homage to Rangda , the demon queen of Bali . Knight , 68 , has amassed an impressive collection of masks , puppets and marionettes from around the world . The Scottish Mask and Puppet Centre in Glasgow , which he founded in 1981 , is a labour of love . Spend time chatting with Knight and he will regale you with fascinating stories , be it a brush with the law during the height of the 1974 miners ' strike to his time working on the genesis of what would later become the popular 1980s children 's TV show Button Moon . His passion took root many years earlier as a child growing up among the famed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Royal Doulton and Wedgwood -- I was surrounded by ceramics -- and the other half were miners , " he says . " As a child I started making little creatures and animal figures , modelled straight out of the ground from clay . I was very small when I first started doing that , probably about five years old . Up until the age of 11 , I spent most of my life outdoors playing in nature . " Things changed when he started secondary school . " It was all boys and I did n't like the chauvinism , bullying and violence , " says Knight . " I had grown up in a family that was strongly matriarchal . That was seminal in how I viewed the world . " I failed my 11 plus and absconded from school until I got caught . I managed to evade capture for nine months . Finally , my mum and dad woke up to what was going on and that I was hiding in the coal cellar for most of the day when I was meant @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their son was , Knight 's parents enrolled him in a different school . " I had a series of wonderful teachers and ended up becoming head boy . It was quite a reversal . I started to get very involved in theatre , drama and amateur opera . " He went on to study English and drama at the University of Hull and honed his theatre skills at the Gulbenkian Centre , becoming good friends with Anthony Minghella , who directed The English Patient . Knight arrived in Scotland to begin an MLitt with a thesis on masks in 1973 . " I did so at the invitation of Professor James Arnott at Glasgow University who had seen some of the masks I had made for a production of Noah by the French writer Andre Obey , " he recalls . " Arnott was the external examiner for my degree at Hull University . He said that he would love for me to come and join their theatre department in Glasgow to research the mask and its history . " That plan fell by the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as a tool for political protest . " My research never got finished , " he admits . " I spent most of my time running a street theatre group called The Fellow Travellers and getting into trouble . I was arrested for wearing a mask of Edward Heath in Sauchiehall Street at the height of the 1974 general election . " Knight felt an affinity with the miners as they went on strike in February 1974 over pay and conditions . He devised a piece to highlight their plight and raise funds for the miners ' families . " The miners ' wives were having great difficulty making ends meet . There were no food banks in those days . People had it tough . Together with eight other people , I was out on the streets performing this show we 'd written which used giant masks and puppets . " We were getting crowds of 500 people . Then we all got arrested for ' displaying writings , signs and effigies , singing and playing musical instruments in a threatening and abusive manner ' under @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were taken away . " When it came to court the police were confused about who was wearing what mask and carrying out what activity . They claimed they had witnessed a demonstration , but we produced a script of the show and a film of the entire arrest which shows we were attacked unprovoked by the police . " The whole thing got laughed out of court and we were acquitted . I never did get the puppets and masks back but what I learned from that was to just go off and make some more . I realised you could always make something out of nothing . If you had done it once , it was much easier to do it again . " Knight left Glasgow and after a stint working at Trent Polytechnic in Nottingham , he headed to London where a card in the window of an employment bureau caught his eye . It read : " Actor/musician required . Must be 5ft 8in tall , have a current driving licence and be a member of British Actors Equity Association . " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ none of those things , " he says . " I 'm 6ft 3in . I did n't have a driving licence and I was n't a member of Equity , but something made me phone the number . " He was given the address for a four-storey Victorian house in North London . " It had a costume room , a rehearsal room , a living room and a massive kitchen . There were two guys living there , Ian Allen and John Thirtle , who were the directors of Playboard Puppets . " The duo put on touring shows in theatres , arts centres and village halls around the country . One of their actor-puppeteers had fallen ill . " The reason they were looking for someone 5ft 8in tall was because that was the height of the playboard they were working off , " explains Knight . " They threw me in the deep end and asked me to stand behind the playboard . They asked : ' How are we going to do this ? Even if we put a black mask on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I thought back to a lot of my early Shakespeare drama and training where the actor stands in a triangulated shape . " All I did was bend my knees , triangulate my thighs and legs , to sink down seven inches , and put my hands above my head . The only catch was you had to stand like that for 45 minutes while the show was going on , swapping hands and voices . To their astonishment it worked , and I loved it . " Then came an intriguing brief for a new show : make puppets from household materials . " That was the origination of Button Moon , the famous TV show , " says Knight . " I was involved in that for about 18 months . I played Reggie Veggie , Small in the Bleach Bottle Army and the Banana Birds . " On a couple of occasions , I had to stand in and operate Mr Spoon as well . That was while it was still a live show and they had n't yet piloted it with Thames Television @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mask and puppet scene . " I realised it was a huge economic sector in its own right , " he says . " Instead of being a branch of the theatre , it was actually a root ; one that was older than the wheel , the bow or the harpoon . " Over 15 years , I travelled to puppet centres and puppet museums all over the world . I did a British Council survey of puppet theatre in the USA and worked with a TV company in Norway . " Knight was commissioned by John McGrath of the 7:84 theatre company to design masks for The Trembling Giant which premiered at the Royal Court Theatre in London in 1977 . " Harriet Walter was playing Margaret Thatcher , whose face I had to cast , and Jim Broadbent played the giant . " In 1979 , he decided to return to Glasgow . " I came back to Scotland because I was sick to death with what I saw happening to the decimation of the subsidised theatre movement and all the experimental theatre groups @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " She was determined to crush the life and freedom out of everything . I fled back to Scotland with my memories of Matt McGinn , Hamish Henderson and all the socialists that I had met up here in the cultural world . " By the time I got back , all the deskilling and demanufacturing process had started in engineering and shipbuilding . It was a changed environment from what I remembered . " Over the next decade , Knight formed the Gorbals Diehards Theatre Company ( " the actress Libby McArthur was one of my proteges during that time " ) , worked as an adult education tutor at the University of Glasgow and ran drama classes on Bute . He put on Italian playwright Dario Fo 's famed performance piece Mistero Buffo at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 1981 as a solo mask and puppet show . " I found his radical reinterpretation of the Bible and the Mystery Plays fascinating and challenging , " he recalls . That same year , Knight decided to forge what he envisaged as " a creative @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " He rented the upper floor of a former whisky bond building on Otago Street in Glasgow and the Scottish Mask and Puppet Centre was born . " I converted half of the floor into a 35-seat experimental theatre and the other half into a workshop with a tiny office . I built the whole thing from skips around the West End , including the lighting box . " At first it was just me , but it grew to 11 members of staff through YTS and the Manpower Services Commission . In 1985 , I turned the organisation into a charity because I had worked out by then that while money was important to get things done , I really was n't interested in profit-making per se . " A friend told him about an empty building on Balcarres Avenue in Glasgow , previously a cleansing department depot , that was on the council surplus list . The Scottish Mask and Puppet Centre moved there in 1989 -- 30 years ago next month -- where it has remained ever since . Funding is an ongoing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ? 1million to open a museum and add facilities such as 107-seat theatre , two artists ' studios , a study centre and a children 's community garden . He believes more could be done to support his work . " I feel frustrated by the blinkered vision and failure to appreciate the significance of this art form to not only educate , but as a medium which can play across cultures , social agenda and racial lines , " he says . " The power of masks and puppets to unite as an art form is massive . " Last year , Knight began putting together a catalogue and accession register as part of the accreditation process required by Museums Galleries Scotland . It is hoped a new gallery space within the centre will be up and running within the next three years . He and his wife Sarah Lee spearhead the public programme , which includes masterclasses , children 's birthday parties and an annual festival each October . Alongside many rare and antique puppets and masks , Knight has a collection of more than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and repair workshop , a mask-making studio and Grant Mason FX special effects , who did the baby for Trainspotting , is on site . We are the only puppet centre in the UK that has this range of facilities and resources . " What I hope to do is create a mask-making and leather apprenticeship scheme . When I was in Italy in the 1980s , that is what I learned to do . I would love to be able to share those skills .

It was nothing really , a stranger 's unguarded comments , idle chatter among guests at a wedding reception about a woman they knew only from the television screen , from seeing her in the stands , full of passionate exhortation in support of her sons . But Judy Murray , the subject of the small talk , was also at the wedding and , only inches away , heard every word : " I was standing with my back to a woman who I realised was talking about me , though she had no idea I was behind her . " She was saying , ' I ca n't stand her , she never smiles , she looks so miserable . She 's pushed these kids and I bet they ca n't stand her ' . " So I just turned my shoulder and bumped into her and she was mortified . I just thought , ' You 've never met me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " For too long the abashed guest was far from alone in being willing to judge the mother of tennis champions Andy and Jamie . Routinely described as too driven , too competitive -- adjectives rarely used to criticise men , of course -- as her sons rose up the world rankings , Judy 's public image seemed set . Today , in an interview ahead of her 60th birthday next month , Judy reflects on how , as her critics came to better know her sons and recognise their achievements , they also came to a better understanding of their mum , a woman whose straight-shooting style , passion for coaching and sense of fun have made her , like her boys , an inspirational Scot . Judy in younger days . Looking back , the tennis coach and Sunday Post columnist says , the criticism is forgotten while the support from ordinary Scots remains a delight : " Most people are lovely . A few years ago in Maryhill in Glasgow , I was early for a session I was doing with a primary @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ confectionery company so I know the cafes and was about to cross the road to get a coffee when I noticed a man on the other side looking at me . " When I crossed he said : ' Are you that woman from the tennis ? What you doing here ? ' When I told him he replied , ' That 's fantastic , hen . Imagine me meeting you in Maryhill ' . It was just a really nice moment and there 's a lot more of them than the other kind . " However , social media for Judy remains a potentially toxic environment , a dumping ground for needless abuse . She said : " When I got my OBE two years ago there were so many comments , nearly all of them from men , saying , ' What 's she ever done ? ' People who knew nothing about me . " It would have bothered me enormously when I was young but now I do n't care . It can be harder reading criticism of the boys but you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The cracks that had begun appearing in the dour , driven public image shattered completely in 2014 when Judy was invited to appear on the BBC 's Strictly Come Dancing when her gung-ho spirit made her a huge favourite with fans . " It changed my life , " she said . " People saw me in a different light . I could never have imagined the things I 've done since -- presenting a Bafta , being on Catchprase , The Chase . It 's amazing , great fun . I read somewhere that women find their confidence at 52 , and I reckon it was the same for me . " Sadly , her home town is known for more than her sons ' success and the tragedy in 1996 when 16 children and their teacher lost their lives , remains Judy 's darkest hour . She said : " Everything softens with time but you never forget . Afterwards , it was just complete and utter shock and disbelief . I had friends who lost children . Everyone in the town knew someone affected @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but the town has recovered and I like to think the boys may have helped a little because Dunblane is associated with happy things too . " For me , afterwards , I never took anything for granted . I went after what I wanted and threw myself into work . " And , approaching 60 , Judy can look back on her own impressive career . A tennis professional , gathering 64 national titles , before becoming Scotland 's National Coach in 1995 and the first woman to gain the Lawn Tennis Association 's Performance Coach Award that same year . She would set up a development programme that produced one Federation Cup and four Davis Cup players , including her sons , who both became world No 1s -- Andy in singles , Jamie in doubles . She said : " People say I 'm living my dreams through my kids but it 's not that at all . It was actually my disappointment about the lack of opportunities when I was playing as a teenager that made me want to change things for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , no indoor courts , no full-time coaches , no year-round training . Even with the ambition to play professionally , no one believed it was possible because no one from Scotland had done it before . " When I see what the boys have achieved , it is all about someone creating opportunities for them to let them take the next step . That 's the same for all the kids . " Judy as a baby . Her lifelong pursuit of excellence and opportunities for her young players has demanded boundless energy and , nearing her milestone birthday , she is starting to conserve her get-up and go . Judy said : " I 've just done a detox retreat for five days . People go for all sorts of reasons , but it gave me that peace and quiet where I could read and relax -- something I never do at home . " I realised over the last four or five years that as you get older you need to look after yourself better . " I travel a lot @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and out , depending on where I am and what I 'm doing . This detox retreat is my reward to myself and I 'm going to do it twice a year because your health is your wealth . " I have n't looked after myself as well as I ought to and that 's something I 'm changing . " I 'm noticeably stiffer when I get up so I now have a stretching routine which makes a difference and helps with circulation . " I 've got my grandkids now and want to be fit for them . Heading into my 60s , I 'm going to spend more time looking after me . " Having set up the Judy Murray Foundation 18 months ago to bring tennis to rural and disadvantaged areas of Scotland , Judy now wants to deliver one final project -- a " pay and play " tennis and leisure centre at Park of Keir , near Dunblane . She said : " It will give us a home to showcase the game and become a national development centre @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coach to go with the boys , I did so because I could n't get anyone to believe in tennis in Scotland and give me the budget to grow the game . " That is the thing that kills me . What we created between 1995 and 2005 with all those players that came through came out of nothing , and we should have capitalised on that success . The game should have flourished , but it has n't . " We are a small country and whoever is leading the sport needs to bring everyone together behind a single vision and strategy . " I look at the big-salary jobs in tennis now and I wonder if the passion is there . We had the chance and wasted it . " In a playing and coaching career full of highlights , in the years spent supporting her Grand Slam winning sons , Judy has enjoyed her fair share of golden moments . But one stands out -- the 2015 Davis Cup semi-final in Glasgow . She remembers : " It was the Saturday ; @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ play doubles in the semi-final . " We were all there as a family and I got a text from Andy saying , ' I 'm going to play with Jamie ' and just thought ' fantastic ' . " They came out in front of 8,000 people to the Red Hot Chilli Pipers playing Scotland the Brave , led by GB captain Leon Smith . He started his career with me when he was 20 and is like my third son . I was really , really emotional . " I thought , ' This is the east end of Glasgow where you wo n't find a tennis court for love nor money . This is the World Cup of tennis happening here and it 's with my sons and Leon ' . " I felt massive pride in them but also in the knowledge that it would not be happening if I had n't had the conviction to take on the national coach job and shrug off all those people who did n't believe in tennis in Scotland .

" When I crossed he said : ' Are you that woman from the tennis ? What you doing here ? ' When I told him he replied , ' That 's fantastic , hen . Imagine me meeting you in Maryhill ' . It was just a really nice moment and there 's a lot more of them than the other kind . " However , social media for Judy remains a potentially toxic environment , a dumping ground for needless abuse . She said : " When I got my OBE two years ago there were so many comments , nearly all of them from men , saying , ' What 's she ever done ? ' People who knew nothing about me . " It would have bothered me enormously when I was young but now I do n't care . It can be harder reading criticism of the boys but you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The cracks that had begun appearing in the dour , driven public image shattered completely in 2014 when Judy was invited to appear on the BBC 's Strictly Come Dancing when her gung-ho spirit made her a huge favourite with fans . " It changed my life , " she said . " People saw me in a different light . I could never have imagined the things I 've done since -- presenting a Bafta , being on Catchprase , The Chase . It 's amazing , great fun . I read somewhere that women find their confidence at 52 , and I reckon it was the same for me . " Sadly , her home town is known for more than her sons ' success and the tragedy in 1996 when 16 children and their teacher lost their lives , remains Judy 's darkest hour . She said : " Everything softens with time but you never forget . Afterwards , it was just complete and utter shock and disbelief . I had friends who lost children . Everyone in the town knew someone affected @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but the town has recovered and I like to think the boys may have helped a little because Dunblane is associated with happy things too . " For me , afterwards , I never took anything for granted . I went after what I wanted and threw myself into work . " And , approaching 60 , Judy can look back on her own impressive career . A tennis professional , gathering 64 national titles , before becoming Scotland 's National Coach in 1995 and the first woman to gain the Lawn Tennis Association 's Performance Coach Award that same year . She would set up a development programme that produced one Federation Cup and four Davis Cup players , including her sons , who both became world No 1s -- Andy in singles , Jamie in doubles . She said : " People say I 'm living my dreams through my kids but it 's not that at all . It was actually my disappointment about the lack of opportunities when I was playing as a teenager that made me want to change things for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , no indoor courts , no full-time coaches , no year-round training . Even with the ambition to play professionally , no one believed it was possible because no one from Scotland had done it before . " When I see what the boys have achieved , it is all about someone creating opportunities for them to let them take the next step . That 's the same for all the kids . " Judy as a baby . Her lifelong pursuit of excellence and opportunities for her young players has demanded boundless energy and , nearing her milestone birthday , she is starting to conserve her get-up and go . Judy said : " I 've just done a detox retreat for five days . People go for all sorts of reasons , but it gave me that peace and quiet where I could read and relax -- something I never do at home . " I realised over the last four or five years that as you get older you need to look after yourself better . " I travel a lot @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and out , depending on where I am and what I 'm doing . This detox retreat is my reward to myself and I 'm going to do it twice a year because your health is your wealth . " I have n't looked after myself as well as I ought to and that 's something I 'm changing . " I 'm noticeably stiffer when I get up so I now have a stretching routine which makes a difference and helps with circulation . " I 've got my grandkids now and want to be fit for them . Heading into my 60s , I 'm going to spend more time looking after me . " Having set up the Judy Murray Foundation 18 months ago to bring tennis to rural and disadvantaged areas of Scotland , Judy now wants to deliver one final project -- a " pay and play " tennis and leisure centre at Park of Keir , near Dunblane . She said : " It will give us a home to showcase the game and become a national development centre @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coach to go with the boys , I did so because I could n't get anyone to believe in tennis in Scotland and give me the budget to grow the game . " That is the thing that kills me . What we created between 1995 and 2005 with all those players that came through came out of nothing , and we should have capitalised on that success . The game should have flourished , but it has n't . " We are a small country and whoever is leading the sport needs to bring everyone together behind a single vision and strategy . " I look at the big-salary jobs in tennis now and I wonder if the passion is there . We had the chance and wasted it . " In a playing and coaching career full of highlights , in the years spent supporting her Grand Slam winning sons , Judy has enjoyed her fair share of golden moments . But one stands out -- the 2015 Davis Cup semi-final in Glasgow . She remembers : " It was the Saturday ; @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ play doubles in the semi-final . " We were all there as a family and I got a text from Andy saying , ' I 'm going to play with Jamie ' and just thought ' fantastic ' . " They came out in front of 8,000 people to the Red Hot Chilli Pipers playing Scotland the Brave , led by GB captain Leon Smith . He started his career with me when he was 20 and is like my third son . I was really , really emotional . " I thought , ' This is the east end of Glasgow where you wo n't find a tennis court for love nor money . This is the World Cup of tennis happening here and it 's with my sons and Leon ' . " I felt massive pride in them but also in the knowledge that it would not be happening if I had n't had the conviction to take on the national coach job and shrug off all those people who did n't believe in tennis in Scotland .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves an intransitive verb 'come' with no NP object and the second predicate 'reading this book in a group' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

FOR people who grew up with Jesus , he was a carpenter ( Mark 6.3 ) -- or a builder , or a craftsman , since the word tekton means all three . Here , it was a case of like father , like son : Joseph had the same trade ( Matthew 13.55 ) , and " the builder of all things is God " ( Hebrews 3.4 ) . That suggests that worshippers of the divine builder incarnate would do well to celebrate manual work . Here , Matthew Crawford is quite an ally , as the title of his book makes clear : The Case for Working with Your Hands : Or why office work is bad for us and fixing things feels good . Crawford laments two related shifts . First , corporations found it cheaper to replace skilled workers with honed instincts with unskilled workers guided by general pro ? cedures . It started in factories , a century ago , but today similar trends apply to office work . Second , the things made in those factories have become so complex that house ? hold skills in maintenance and repair , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ant , have withered away . Again , that serves corporate in ? ? terest , be ? ? ? cause we now tend to throw things away and buy new . That might sound heavy going , and the book certainly contains a fair amount of history and philo ? ? ? sophy , but it is enlivened through ? ? out by coming to us through Craw ? ? ford 's own colourful story , stretch ? ? ing from childhood in a commune , through academic studies and office work , to a lucrative position at a DC think tank , on to his momentous decision to leave all that behind to become a professional motorbike mechanic . Doing something about the first of Crawford 's complaints , about fac ? tories and offices , may be beyond most of us . We can , however , all get more involved with hands-on main ? ? tenance and repair . That , Crawford thinks , would lead to greater satisfaction in life for all of us , and provide a secure career for not a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he argues , cars and plumbing can be fixed only locally . At heart , this is a book about happiness , excellence , and openness to the world around us . Crawford has no illusions that work can involve drudgery , but he does see something wrong when work offers so little by way of happiness in itself that the most it can do , when it comes to pleasure in life , is to fin ? ance leisure and holidays . Like others writing about satis ? faction , Crawford associates happi ? ness with getting absorbed in an activity , often because we need to pay careful attention to things and tasks before us . That reminded me of the former Archbishop of Can ? ? ter ? bury Lord Williams 's com ? ? ments about the importance of atten ? ? tiveness , and its relation to prayer . Crawford 's own analogy is that his apprenticeship with motorcycles was similar to learning to draw . Like the artist , he had to learn to see ( and , in his case @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ machine ) . Both the artist and the mechanic demon ? strate a kind of humility before reality : an attentiveness to the par ? ticularity of what they are dealing with . The artist might learn from other artists , and the mechanic from other mechanics , but real ex ? ? cellence in either field comes from paying careful attention to the ob ? ? ject of your work , and letting that teach you , too . If all goes well , time spent paying attention leads to skill , and what Crawford calls " excellence " in some domain or other . His account offers a useful recalibration of our sense of where excellence is to be found : plumbers and gardeners join the ranks of musicians and sports stars . Provocatively , Crawford suggests that ethics , too , could do with a shift from an emphasis on rights to an emphasis on excellence , and pride in doing things well . He sees this as a good way to transcend barriers , since being good at something al ? ? lows us to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and value them for it , even if they come from a very different background from our own . With suggestions such as " ex ? ? cellence over rights " , Crawford 's book is bound to provoke a lively dis ? ? cussion . He consistently stands out ? ? ? side current political distinctions , belonging to neither the con ? ? tem ? ? por ? ? ary left nor the con ? ? tem ? porary right . He prefers excellence to rights , but is also fiercely critical of con ? temporary capitalism ; he praises pride and patriotism , but also the truer " liberalism " of the motorcycle workshop over the think tank . He is likely to offend and delight different readers in different ways . If his usefully contrarian politics do not raise hackles , his occasionally strong language might , or his frustrating attachment to using male examples throughout . I came away from The Case for Working with Your Hands more con ? ? vinced than ever that an en ? ? viron ? ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of life : one that is both possible and attractive , and frustrated by current economic interests . To meet even halfway- sens ? ? ible goals over climate change , we need to make less stuff , and throw less stuff away . Crawford 's vision of hands-on involvement with the objects in our lives , through repair and re-use , would be sustainable and satisfying , but tricky to bring off today . I think how I used to fix my own com ? puters , but my new laptop , though wonderfully light , and thin enough to slice a cucumber , does not have a single part that I can change myself . Other areas of life offer greater hope , and half the fun of what might come out of reading this book in a group would be in swap ? ping examples of how to cultivate a more hands-on way of life .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It contains a transitive verb 'get' with an NP object 'a kick', but it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of seeing happy customers' does not involve a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it fit any of the semantic interpretations required for the construction.

I 'm very impressed with the wealth of knowledge on this message board but I guess my true love lies on motorcycle racing in the 50s , 60s and 70s . Does anyone know of a comparable motorcycle message board of this quality ? Stuart , I have one but it is stuck on one of my old slot car boxes ... You will notice that the picture could be of Tarquinio Provini instead of Giacomo , but the bike is unmistakably the Morini 250 single that oh-so-nearly would have won the worlds in 1964 against the might of Honda and Yamaha , the Suzuki being a big fat 4-cylinder pig at that time . Best regards , Indeed . Tarquinio Provini was 250cc world champ on a streamlined Mondial identical to the one that Sammy Miller brought to several of the Festival of Speed meetings . Then he drove for the Commendatore Morini and helped develop this truly extraordinary single-cylinder engine , and the handling of the lightweight and very well streamlined bike . Once he moved to Benelli after nearly winning the world championship , Giacomo was offered the ride and won the contested @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the MV quattro pair of 350cc and 500cc . Meanwhile Tarquinio had a go on the 12-speed Kreidler , but even I had more success on the difficult tiddler than he did , as he could not figure out the complex twin shifting gearbox . After he retired he founded Protar ( PROvini TARquinio ) and the first issued model was the Morini single . It was followed by a Gilera Four , then by the Benelli Four driven by him , then by the unfortunate Renzo Pasolini . Provini was an extraordinary and courageous racer , and anyone who witnessed him driving this Morini was very privileged as he was one of the all-time greats . Best regards , Of course this has to be a decision of the forum 's owner since this is a private venture . But I for one would love to have two parallel forums , the Auto Racing Nostalgia and Motorcycle racing Nostalgia Forums . Let me kick off with a short post about how I got interested in motorcycling and motorcycle racing . My father always rode motorcycles , usually @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ market to Bonds and Reliants ( ouch ! ) . Born and brought up in Ramsgate on the coast , he often took me in the 1950s to the twice yearly motorcycle sprint organised by the Sunbeam MCC at the Western Undercliff . This type of racing later became drag racing when two bikes ( cars ) raced against the clock , but on this narrow bumpy concrete track , with chalk cliffs on one side and steel railing protecting the beach on the other , one bike at a time was enough . Castrol ' R ' , aaah . During the 60s , a fatal crash involving Ian Ashwell ( Vincent ) at the Brighton Sprint caused the Sunbeam MCC to consider safety even more so that was the end of the Ramsgate Sprint . My first experience of motorcycle racing on a circuit was the inaugural meeting at Brands Hatch in 1960 when motorcycle racing took place on the new GP circuit . My hero became local rider Derek Minter who six weeks earlier had been involved in a tragic crash with Dave Downer at the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ broken back , but there he was about to ride again . Minter was a Brands and Oulton Park specialist and was known as the ' King of Brands ' . I seem to recall that might have been when Geoff Duke 's revived Gileras were also raced . Other riders that day were Mike Hailwood ( MV ) , Phil Read , Bill Ivy ( a local lad from Maidstone ) and Chris Vincent on a sidecar . For the next few years , I 'd make the journey to Brands until the much shorter , and closer , Lydden Hill circuit , opened . Those were the days . Derek Minter was indeed one of the 1960 's greats and it is rather too bad that he confined himself mostly the the British short circuits where he excelled.You are correct in recalling the Geoff Duke 's Gileras , but these bikes were really not successful except when the prodigee rider from Venezuela , Benedicto Caldarella , drove them , almost humiliating the invincible MV Agusta team and Mike Hailwood in the process.I am ready for a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as it is OK to talk racing bikes on the Nostalgia forum and that it is OK with the forum owner , I think we should.Regards , So they were great bikes but pensioned off after the 1957 season . I understand that Duke pleaded with the company to release their bikes and in 1960 , they relented . However they needed further development to keep up with the MVs . Upon checking a letter I received from Geoff Duke a while ago ( and it seems one of us may have the year when they returned incorrect , he says - " Regarding Brands Hatch 1963 , Derek Minter won breaking the lap record , the first over 90mph on a motorcycle ! Not bad for long-in-the-tooth machines ! ! John Hartle was 2nd . Best wishes , Geoff Duke " . Paul , I agree with you and of course the Gileras were great in their time , there but there was little opposition at Brands other than a cohort of Manxes and G50s . Fact is , Duke was unable to get Gilera @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ engines WERE obsolete . But I DO remember Caldarella at the US GP and later in Italy ... and the MV opposition WAS present . But I must say that Hartle did win the Dutch TT that year after the MV ran into trouble , and they were not THAT far off the MV 's performance . All in all , I believe that Duke was met with lukewarm enthusiasm ( and financing ) from the Italians , and it is too bad indeed . Lots of financial problems plagued Gilera , Bianchi and Morini , that stopped them from committing what it would take to beat MV and/or the ascending Japanese makers , committed to take over the market , which they eventually did . Great to see a motorcycle centred thread on TNF . I have a stupid question : Why is MV Agusta so often called MV Augusta ? Is it simply a typo ? I have to admit until recently I thought it was Augusta and that was after following Surtees and Hailwood in period . Am I dislexic , dyslectic , deeslectic , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there is actually a lot of knowledge about two wheelers on the forum . This one has been bothering me for quiet a while . It is frame of what used to be a 50cc racer in the early 70 's . I guess , only guess , considering the frame construction , that it is early 70 's . At the time there was still a worldchampionship for 50cc.It came once equipped with a kreidler engine , as so many of these little screamers did ... Could anybody shed any light on who build the frame . Also pics of bikes with a very similar frame are more than welcome ...

Confusion with the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and was gently corrected ..... Great to see a motorcycle centred thread on TNF . I have a stupid question : Why is MV Agusta so often called MV Augusta ? For answer , see " Alpha Romeo " and " Farrari " . Could anybody shed any light on who build the frame . Also pics of bikes with a very similar frame are more than welcome ... Looks to me like a production Van Veen frame from 1968-69 . Kreidler began with their Florett stamped steel sheet-metal frames , introduced the looped tubular frame for the first world championship in 1962 ( which they lost to Ernst Degner and the Suzuki RM62 ) and this evolved into a similar frame to the B&W picture you show . The sad thing being that Kreidler did the same as several companies at the time and crushed the GP bikes at the end of each season , meaning that there are virtually no survivors of these wonderful and exotic machines .

This formed the backbone of Dutch and German entries during the 1967-1973 years behind the works Derbi and Jamathi machines , and of course the Van Veen-entered " works " Kreidlers.I believe that what you have is either one of these production frames or a good copy of it . I saw several bikes such equiped in 1968 when I went to race at the German GP at the Ring . OTOH , I join in welcoming a motorcycle racing forum or subforum . As I 'm afraid I 'm less knowledgeable in this matter than in Alfa Romeo history , I enjoy riding my 1972 Laverda 750SF most .

He will always remain in my memory as one of the most courageous men I have ever seen , and the epitoma of stylish riding along with John Surtees . A great racer has left us . Not exactly Motor Cycle Nostalgia but if any readers attend car meetings at Snetterton , you will probably have seen the " Red Rocket Recovery " Ford Cargo with hiab hoist . The company owner and regular recovery driver is non other than Alex George who was Hondas man for the Isle of Man F1 and senior races in the late ' 70s and early , 80s .

Rarely has one man received such adulation and achieved so much on the race track in such a short time . Jarno died a hero 's death on the race track doing what he always did , riding 10/10ths . But , he did n't want to do die and he died needlessly and in doing so the world lost a larger than life motorcyling celebrity .

David , I just checked your thread and agree with you that there is so much in common : did n't most of us start out infatuated with bikes before we became infatuated with cars ? Certainly that was true in my case . I would go to the local motorcycle dealer in Guildford and lay along the tank on the Manx Norton that sat in the showroom for ages priced at 99 pounds . NOTHING could be greater in my young mind than having that bike and chasing Hailwood , Hartle etc around the IOM .

So be it , let see if I can be correct this time without resorting to past documents . It 's Will Hartog allright , but it is Marco Lucchinelli on the Gallina-Nava Olio Fiat Suzuki in the center and not King Kenny , with Sheene-boy doing wheelies on his privately-entered Yamaha after he left Suzuki , a big mistake as the semi-works Yamaha will not be good to him all year long .

Regarding the photo of Bazzer on the back wheel : It looks like start of the ' 79 British GP at Silverstone . Sheene is still with Suzuki and no , he did n't flip it .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'opt out of allying with the US' involves 'opt out of' followed by a gerund, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The third season of Dana White 's Contender Series comes to a close Tuesday night after 10 episodes . Five fighters signed from the show this summer already have UFC fights booked . Contender Series has been well received for its no-frills format : five fights , a small audience at UFC Apex in Las Vegas and no walkout music . White himself once said he could host a Contender Series episode every week for the rest of his life . But the show is n't White 's first foray into episodic television in which the objective is to award UFC contracts to worthy fighters . " The Ultimate Fighter " was the original , the pioneer of the medium , beginning in 2005 on Spike TV . The reality show , which played out not unlike " Survivor , " was credited with getting the UFC on cable television and sparking the growth of mixed martial arts . TUF is currently on hiatus , but White has promised a return . " Lookin ' for a Fight , " which airs on UFC Fight Pass , follows White and retired UFC veterans Matt Serra @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ local culture and cuisine . The climax of each episode is the trio watching a regional MMA card and determining who should be in the UFC . Contender Series , TUF and Lookin ' for a Fight all have their pros and cons . And while the end game is always signing new fighters , the shows have different approaches . Here , we pit the three shows against each other in five categories and determine a winner . Ultimately ( pun very much intended ) , finding the best fighters is what all three of these shows are supposed to be about . The environments are very different in each , but that is the one consistent goal . The UFC 's return to China features a strawweight division championship fight , one that fans in Shenzhen have been anticipating for several months.Zhang Weili , who is 19-1 and fights out of Beijing , will look to take the title from Jessica Andrade in Saturday 's main event . Subscribe to ESPN+ to get exclusive live UFC events , weigh-ins @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ White 's Contender Series ; and more exclusive MMA content . The Ultimate Fighter puts athletes through the wringer , sticking them in a house with each other and making them fight ( and cut weight ) frequently in an elimination tournament format . They are away from their families and regular coaches . The Contender Series brings fighters to Las Vegas for a single bout in front of a small crowd , where they try to do enough to impress White . As featherweight Brendan Loughnane learned earlier this season , just winning in exciting fashion is not enough . There 's a premium put on finishing . " Lookin ' for a Fight " is probably the most accurate glimpse into who each fighter is . They 're fighting on a regional show in front of a local crowd with their coaches in their corners . White , Serra and Thomas are just flies on the wall , watching said fighters do their thing . " Lookin ' for a Fight " has sent athletes such as Sage Northcutt , Mickey Gall and Randy Brown @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for " Lookin ' for a Fight " alums , while " The Ultimate Fighter " certainly has produced the better UFC performers overall ( and we 'll get to that in a second ) . But when it comes to an organic environment in which to watch aspiring MMA stars , " Lookin ' for a Fight " has the others beat via close unanimous decision . Edge : " Lookin ' for a Fight " Sage Northcutt was one of the UFC success stories from " Lookin ' for a Fight . " Josh Hedges/Zuffa LLC/Getty Images When fighters are done with one of these three shows , are they better versions of themselves ? That 's what this category is all about . Which show allows for noticeable improvement ? The answer here has to be " The Ultimate Fighter . " With all the inanities that come with spending six weeks in a house with other fighters and the constant competing and cutting weight , there is a certain mental strength gained from being on TUF . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ styles , most of which are on a high level . The star fighters who " coach " during the season usually bring their own training staffs . " I have a lot of potential ; the TUF house made me that much better , " TUF 28 alum Maurice Greenetold BJPenn.com in November . " You get world-class coaches , world-class training . The only downfall is that you are under that microscope of reality television at times . " TUF has produced 11 UFC champions , which is nothing to sneeze at . Contender Series might be the new favored horse in the UFC 's stable , but even the latest seasons of TUF , which have been panned by critics , have stacked up well . Since 2017 , when Contender Series debuted , the 40 fighters who have been on TUF during that time have a combined record of 43-39-2 ( .512 winning percentage ) . The Contender Series alums have fared only slightly better : 69 fighters with a 92-82-2 ( .523 ) record , according to ESPN Stats & Information research . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " are not really about development . One could argue " The Ultimate Fighter " is not , either . But the granddad of this group is the clear selection here . Edge : " The Ultimate Fighter " I had an interview with White in his office six years ago . The topic of " The Ultimate Fighter " came up , because many at that time thought the show was on its last legs . Ratings were down . Not as much premium-level talent was coming out of the series . The reality show fad had fizzled . I asked White about those concerns , and he said -- and I 'm paraphrasing here : As long as the fights are still good , what does it matter ? Now , in Contender Series , White has what he probably always wanted : a show with just fights . No BS . No childish pranks . No buffoonery . Just five fights every week , with the most aggressive finishers getting UFC contracts . All the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , to trick them into putting MMA on television under the guise of reality TV . Contender Series is about the competition and the competition alone . In 2019 , even with an abundance of MMA on television , Contender Series has spoken directly to the hard-core fans . Exciting fights and big finishes are White 's expectation , and oftentimes they are delivered . The production team and broadcasters also do a nice job of telling us who these fighters are without all the fuss of sticking them in a house together for six weeks . Former fighter Laura Sanko has stood out as a real star as the backstage interviewer and ring announcer . Most important of all , UFC matchmakers Sean Shelby and Mick Maynard have done an incredible job of finding UFC-ready talent . These are supposed to be exciting bouts , and Shelby and Maynard have constantly hit home runs in that regard , which is amazing considering how much work they already have in trying to fill up the UFC 's 40-plus events per year . Contender Series is a show @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . It 's easily digestible . With all respect to the hilarious Serra on " Lookin ' for a Fight " ( he needs his own show ) , Contender Series is the big winner in this category . Via finish , too -- just the way White likes it . Edge : Contender Series Kamaru Usman is one of two current UFC champions who are alums of " The Ultimate Fighter . " AP Photo/John Locher Maybe this is n't a fair question , because of The Ultimate Fighter 's expansive body of work over the past 14 years . So , let 's just take a look at the recent past . There are two current UFC champions who have been on TUF : Robert Whittaker and Kamaru Usman . TJ Dillashaw and Rose Namajunas are TUF alums who held UFC titles inside of 2019 . And then there 's Tony Ferguson , a TUF veteran and former interim champ who has not lost since 2012 . These are elite names . Whittaker , Usman and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ None of the other two shows can boast such a pedigree . " Lookin ' for a Fight " has not produced anyone who has come close to a title shot in its four years . Contender Series has some names that could graduate to that . Sean O'Malley is an excellent bantamweight prospect and 2-0 in the UFC , but he 's currently serving a second suspension for an anti-doping violation . Geoff Neal is 4-0 and looks like a future welterweight contender , but he 's not quite there yet . Greg Hardy has been the DWCS alum who has moved up the card fastest -- he has been in co-main events -- but that 's more due to his notoriety as a former NFL star with a troubled past . It 's possible that Contender Series and maybe even " Lookin ' for a Fight " will produce names that reach the highest echelons of the UFC . But it 'll probably take a long time until they 're able to hold a candle to TUF , which at one time was the UFC 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was on " The Ultimate Fighter . " It 's not an apples-to-apples comparison in this contest , but we 're the matchmakers here and TUF goes over big . Edge : " The Ultimate Fighter " If you 're a high-level MMA prospect trying to get into the UFC , what would you rather do -- be in a house with unfamiliar fighters for six weeks away from your loved ones , or fly to Las Vegas for a few days for one fight ? That 's an easy choice . Just about every fighter would choose the Contender Series and a chance to win a UFC contract with one punch or choke rather than go through the tournament grind on " The Ultimate Fighter . " The one difficult part about DWCS is the pressure . You have to perform in one fight in front of White and catch his eye with brilliance , or it 's back to the regional circuit for you . In some cases , fighters ca n't execute what would normally be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ aggression and athletes gunning for a finish . " Killers , " White calls them . All of the fighters that make it to Contender Series are excellent for their level and markedly tough . But in one 15-minute fight , they have to show more than that to White . " Lookin ' for a Fight " is more of a crap shoot . The event , promotion and locale that White and the gang scout out are selected ahead of the actual fighters on the card . There are occasions when a fighter impresses White on " Lookin ' for a Fight " and gets sent to Contender Series , like what happened with Herbert Burnsearlier this year . The show is not consistent enough to be the best possible path . Contender Series gets its hand raised here . Edge : Contender Series Nate Diaz was the Season 5 winner of " The Ultimate Fighter " back in 2007 . Josh Hedges/Zuffa LLC/Getty Images In doing this exercise , I 've come to the conclusion that perhaps " The Ultimate Fighter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ago . But it still has its strong points , especially when the UFC is committed to putting the best possible outside talent on the show . In the end , that 's what is most important about all of these shows -- the caliber of fighter competing on them . The UFC signs top prospects outright now . The days of blue-chippers having to go through TUF to earn a six-figure UFC contract are probably over . In some ways , Contender Series has taken its place , but the best fighters on TUF from eight years ago are way better than the best ones on DWCS today . The industry has changed , and the UFC 's strategy with regards to bringing in talent has , too . " Lookin ' for a Fight " is the best show to see prospects in their element , with the White , Serra and Thomas high jinks in between . White promises a TUF return soon , so we 'll see what kind of creative ideas the UFC has to rejuvenate it . Contender Series is king @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ per year , outside of the 10 weekly shows every summer . He 's enthusiastic about this show , and for good reason . It 's extremely watchable , has good fighters , exciting fights and , for the athletes , it 's the quickest way to make a name and get into the UFC . Contender Series gets the overall win via TKO . Because you know it would never shoot for a takedown with its opponents in trouble . |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'he' is the NP subject, 'convinced' is V1, 'them' is the NP object, and 'talk those friends out of sharing a place' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. This gives rise to a prevention interpretation, as the action of convincing leads to preventing the friends from sharing a place. The NP object 'them' functions as a causee, and the construction involves a transitive verb 'convinced' that fits the semantic classification of the construction.

Update : Late Wednesday , composer Jeremy Soule sent a message to Kotaku stating : " These 11 year old allegations are false . I am shocked and saddened that these outrageous claims have been made . " Kotaku spoke to another woman who had worked with Soule in 2014 , who stated that Soule sent her a video of him masturbating . When she told Soule that she wanted to keep their relationship professional , she said she was " blocked and removed from a project she was proposed to work on . " Soule told Kotaku " I do n't agree with her point of view , and I 'm not at liberty to discuss . " Original story appears below . Original story : On Monday , Tetrageddon developer Nathalie Lawhead published a blog post about her time working at an unnamed developer in Vancouver . Titled ' Calling out my rapist ' , it alleges that composer Jeremy Soule raped Lawhead after meeting her at a party and striking up a friendship . In the days since Lawhead made the allegation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ forward to share their own experiences of abuse , accusing several industry men of unwanted advances and sexual assault . Lawhead says she met Soule when she was struggling with burnout from her job and problems with immigration , and the composer was someone she was able to connect with as a fellow artist . She wanted a friend and they were not in a romantic relationship , but she says their conversations took a turn and he started to become misogynistic and sexist . " He talked about the mystical power women hold over men with sex , " she writes . " How men are helpless and they need sex . How he needs sex , and a relationship , so he can write his music . He talked about how composing is sexual , and how he will write about sex as inspiration in his music . He talked about how performing music is very sexual . He wrote songs about women that he had relationships with this way . What he does to women , is what inspires his music . " Lawhead @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ relationship with the company 's CEO and others in the industry made her worried about jeopardising her position , so she tried to maintain the friendship while declining his advances . " He made advances on me and I explained that I did n't want this and wanted a friendship , " she says . " He was very threatening , and did n't listen . He made it clear that it 's ' him or bust . ' He raped me . " Lawhead 's blog post also details her time working on an ARG and other projects , including emails between her and the companies she was working with at the time . They show her fighting to get paid for her work at a job where she felt exploited and pressured into staying . Eventually she was let go . Since the blog post was published , other members of the industry have come forward and spoken publicly about alleged abusers . Goddess Mode writer Zo ? Quinn tweeted out a post that accused Night in the Woods developer Alec Holowka of abuse , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ something they 've been silent about for almost their whole career . Quinn accuses Holowka of abusing them and says he was " regularly mean and violent " . They had been staying with him after he invited them to come to Winnipeg and start an indie house with friends , but say he convinced them to talk those friends out of sharing a place , leaving them isolated . " I was scared to leave , " they say . " I was scared to tell anyone . He 'd act normal when other people were around and lay into me as soon as we were alone , then apologise and say how much he needed and loves me . " Their post alleges further instances of emotional and physical abuse , and they say they often had to hide from Holowka in the bathroom . Eventually , another friend had to help them leave . Quinn alleges that not long after , Holowka banned them from an indie games community that he ran , before then banning himself . That was nearly a decade ago @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out and had to skip the last couple of GDCs because they " could risk being around him or seeing everyone clap for him on stage . " Holowka has left social media since Quinn published their post , but Scott Benson , who worked with Holowka on Nights in the Wood , made a statement on Twitter on behalf of the studio , saying they will no longer work with him going forward . Night in the Woods ' publisher , Finji , also made a statement , saying it was cancelling the signing event at PAX West and that it was still " processing " the accusations . I 've also reached out to Quinn , Holowka , Lawhead and Soule , and will update the story with any responses . The momentum generated by Lawhead 's post has inspired others , beyond Quinn , to come forward about their experiences with various industry figures this week . Some of the allegations do n't name names , while others call out specific individuals . The allegations share a lot of similarities , with stories of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ being helped by friends . As far as we know , no criminal charges have been brought against any of the men accused in this week 's posts . For their part , Quinn says they favour rehabilitation over punishment and does n't " wish ill will on anyone . " Fraser is the sole inhabitant of PC Gamer 's mythical Scottish office , conveniently located in his flat . He spends most of his time wrangling the news , but sometimes he sneaks off to write lots of words about strategy games . |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'users' is the NP object and 'having audio retained and reviewed by humans' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, as the action prevents users from opting out of having their audio retained and reviewed. The verb 'opt' fits into the category of verbs that appear in the V1 slot by means of nonspecific means. Therefore, this is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

A customer looks at Apple 's new iPhone XS after it went on sale at the Apple Store in Tokyo By Stephen Nellis ( Reuters ) - Apple Inc <AAPL.O> on Wednesday said it would quit its default practice of retaining audio recordings of the requests users make to its Siri personal assistant and limit human review of what audio it does collect to its own employees rather than contractors . The changes come after Apple earlier this month paused a programme called Siri grading in which humans listened to audio recordings of users to determine whether the assistant had responded appropriately to requests to do things like read unread messages or upcoming calendar appointments . Apple put the programme on hold after the Guardian newspaper reported that contractors working on Apple 's behalf regularly heard confidential information , drug deals and couples having sex .

Apple has promoted its privacy practices in an effort to distance itself from its rivals and has taken steps since Siri 's introduction in 2011 to limit data collection .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'priced out of housing market' does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate and does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a state where workers are unable to afford housing due to pricing, which is not the intended meaning of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The average rent costs are rising faster than monthly earnings in most areas of Dorset , but this is not the case in Weymouth and Portland . The latest figures from the Office for National Statistics ( ONS ) show that the average rent for a two bedroom flat across most areas of Dorset has increased faster than the average monthly wage between 2011 and 2018 . This has led the GMB trade union to claim that there is a massive shortage of homes for rent at reasonable rents for workers in the lower pay grades . However , Weymouth and Portland has bucked this trend as rent prices have increased by just four per cent , while the average change in monthly earnings has risen by 14.4 per cent . Purbeck on the other hand has seen rent rise by 11.5 per cent while wages have increased by just 7.3 per cent . It is a similar story in North Dorset , where rent costs rose by 13 per cent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ growth in monthly earnings . Paul Maloney , GMB Regional Secretary , said : " Policy mistakes have made the housing position for lower paid workers worse . Council homes for rents at reasonable levels were aimed at housing the families of workers in the lower pay grades and did it successfully for generations . " These were sold off - but crucially not replaced as a matter of Tory dogma . Housing benefits was introduced instead to help pay rents for those on lower paid and the costs to the taxpayer has ballooned to over ? 24 billion a year . It would have been far cheaper to build the council homes . " The chickens are now coming home to roost on these policy mistakes . There is a massive shortage of homes for rent at reasonable rents for workers in the lower pay grades . There is now no alternative to higher pay to pay these higher rents plus a step change upwards in building homes for rent at reasonable rents . " These high rents are here to stay . So too @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ accommodation . As a direct consequence , employers must be prepared to pay much higher wages to staff to enable them to afford these much higher rents . " If employers do n't respond with higher pay they will face staff shortages as workers , especially younger people , are priced out of housing market . " It makes little sense for these workers to spend a full week at work only to pay most of their earnings in rents . They will vote with their feet . " Cllr Graham Carr-Jones , Portfolio Holder for Housing at Dorset Council said : " We know that there 's not enough affordable housing options in Dorset , and we 're working with a range of registered providers , such as Housing Associations , to increase the supply of stocks available . " These include rented social accommodation , key worker housing , and affordable properties to rent and buy through the open market . This will form a key part of the new Dorset Local Plan .

" We also encourage communities to look at creative solutions such as community land trusts , where ordinary people come together to offer land and/or building opportunities in their local area . " We are also working with other agencies on a range of measures , such as supporting entrepreneurship , self-employment and growth of small businesses and the roll out of Superfast Broadband .

VAR does not automatically check every other decision unless deemed obviously wrong . Early on , Pukki could easily have gone down under a challenge , but rode it , and created a chance for Cantwell . That would have been pretty straight forward for Mr Hooper you would have thought , but he does have history of course , and that may have influenced Teemu 's decision to take the tackle or ride it . Aarons was booked for a pull back on Ritchie yesterday . Ritchie had already been spoken to for his virtual off the ball foul on Aarons earlier . Second half Ritchie returns the compliment of pulling back Aarons and no booking . He could well have been off for two yellow cards with another ref .

But at the end of the day , he was eventually wrestled to the ground by his neck . Oliver did n't consider it a penalty and VAR did n't think there were grounds to say he had made an error . So why did n't they suggest he come and look at it again and then the final decision would be with the onfield official , which it always should be , in my VAR opinion .

I believe the majority of football fans would agree it was a pen and we would all be livid if that had n't been given to us , both during and for a long time after the game ( we still talk about Jeromes ' goal ' ) .

Yes it 's a subjective decision but even live it looked more of a pen than not so Oliver 's decision ( much like cricket ) should 've been a soft call of pen which would then be reviewed by VAR in case of an obvious error by the ref . Oliver was probably a little unsighted , too many tears in his eyes from seeing his beloved Newcastle stuffed earlier in the day . Yep - the ref has the final say . VAR is only there to inform the referee/assistants if they failed to see something OR if they have awarded something , but may not have seen the whole story ( i.e. review of a penalty decision ) . If Oliver says he saw the incident and did not deem it a penalty , it is not going to be reviewed . Which , in my opinion , is fine . Otherwise it will be all reviewing and no game @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but I am sure I will mellow about it in time . It is just that we have the technology now to ensure rules are enforced to their maximum ability . If players are playing that close to the final defender , they now run the risk that they will be called offside if their move leads to a goal . Over the past few months I have been unable to believe how he Premiership have mucked up something simple . Posters have commented how both Rugby codes have had similar VAR systems for years which work so well . The min question asked by Rugby refs is ' Is there any reason I can not award a try ? ' Surely such a question can be asked in football - can I award a goal/penalty etc and have the discussion between ref and VAR heard . Do n't make it too awkward bringing in rules which we the spectators/plastics don't/ca n't understand Football can a simple game if it is allowed to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

Early on , Pukki could easily have gone down under a challenge , but rode it , and created a chance for Cantwell . That would have been pretty straight forward for Mr Hooper you would have thought , but he does have history of course , and that may have influenced Teemu 's decision to take the tackle or ride it . Aarons was booked for a pull back on Ritchie yesterday . Ritchie had already been spoken to for his virtual off the ball foul on Aarons earlier .

So why did n't they suggest he come and look at it again and then the final decision would be with the onfield official , which it always should be , in my VAR opinion .

Lots of penalty decisions are purely subjective so you have to go with the refs view .

I struggle to reconcile how the handball is so important that it has to be enforced by VAR but the penalty is not and ca n't be triggered by VAR ? This was disallowed because of a law change .

Is this your entry for non-sequitur of the year Ricardo ? It was a bad decision by Oliver not to give a pen . I believe the majority of football fans would agree it was a pen and we would all be livid if that had n't been given to us , both during and for a long time after the game ( we still talk about Jeromes ' goal ' ) . However we 've now seen in 2 weekends that a clear decision has been made not to use VAR to undermine the referee , so unless it 's a factual decision that the on field ref has got wrong , it wo n't @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all of footballs problems because it 's mostly about opinions . Yes it 's a subjective decision but even live it looked more of a pen than not so Oliver 's decision ( much like cricket ) should 've been a soft call of pen which would then be reviewed by VAR in case of an obvious error by the ref . Oliver was probably a little unsighted , too many tears in his eyes from seeing his beloved Newcastle stuffed earlier in the day . Yep - the ref has the final say . VAR is only there to inform the referee/assistants if they failed to see something OR if they have awarded something , but may not have seen the whole story ( i.e. review of a penalty decision ) . If Oliver says he saw the incident and did not deem it a penalty , it is not going to be reviewed . Which , in my opinion , is fine . Otherwise it will be all reviewing and no game @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but I am sure I will mellow about it in time . It is just that we have the technology now to ensure rules are enforced to their maximum ability . If players are playing that close to the final defender , they now run the risk that they will be called offside if their move leads to a goal . Over the past few months I have been unable to believe how he Premiership have mucked up something simple . Posters have commented how both Rugby codes have had similar VAR systems for years which work so well . The min question asked by Rugby refs is ' Is there any reason I can not award a try ? ' Surely such a question can be asked in football - can I award a goal/penalty etc and have the discussion between ref and VAR heard . Do n't make it too awkward bringing in rules which we the spectators/plastics don't/ca n't understand Football can a simple game if it is allowed to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'out of putting pictures through the salerooms' does not involve a causee NP object or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Shares ( Image credit : Apple ) First Amazon , then Google , and now Apple : it seems that every company with a digital assistant to its name uses human beings to review a selection of the interactions that users are having with their smart speakers and phones . After a whistleblower tipped off the Guardian to the practice in regards to Siri , Apple confirmed that " a small portion of Siri requests " do get reviewed by contracted workers , though the recordings are not linked to an Apple ID . Information such as location , contact details , and other app data are logged and included with the recordings , according to the anonymous tipster who contacted the Guardian . " Siri responses are analysed in secure facilities and all reviewers are under the obligation to adhere to Apple 's strict confidentiality requirements , " Apple says , adding that less than 1 percent of daily Siri requests get reviewed in this way . As with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant , the aim of this review process is to improve accuracy , Apple says -- workers have to grade the clips , usually just a couple of seconds long , on whether Siri dealt with the interaction appropriately . It 's still a little disconcerting that real-life human beings could be listening to your daily chit chat if Siri is within listening distance . At the moment there 's no way of opting out of having your recordings reviewed in this way . Given Apple 's focus on user privacy , it may well take steps to further anonymise the recordings before they 're reviewed , or give users more options over how their recordings get processed . As is often the case though , it 's taken some investigative reporting to bring the practice to light . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It describes scare tactics and events but does not involve a transitive verb with an NP object followed by 'out of' and a VP[-ing] predicate. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Hong Kong pro-democracy campaigner Joshua Wong and two other prominent activists have been arrested in a police crackdown following three months of protests in the Chinese-controlled territory . Police officials say that Demosisto party leaders Wong and Agnes Chow were detained earlier today in connection with a 21 June rally where protestors blockaded police headquarters for 15 hours , reports the BBC . The announcement follows the arrest yesterday of independence campaigner Andy Chan , who is being held on suspicion of rioting and assaulting a police officer during protests . He was arrested at Hong Kong airport while waiting for a flight to Tokyo , says the South China Morning Post . The trio are among around 900 people arrested since the demonstrations began in June , sparked by a bill that would allow Hong Kong residents to be extradited to mainland China . Although the bill has now been suspended , the protests have evolved into pro-democracy marches that have attracted crowds of up to two million people . Confirming Wong 's arrest , the Demosisto party said in a statement on Facebook that he had been " arrested at roughly 7:30 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , when he was suddenly pushed into a private car on the street " . He was then taken to police headquarters in Hong Kong 's Wan Chai district , where Chow is also being held after being arrested at her home . BREAKING : Our secretary-general @joshuawongcf was just arrested this morning at roughly 7:30 , when he was walking to the South Horizons MTR station . He was forcefully pushed into a private minivan on the street in broad daylight . Our lawyers following the case now . Man-kei Tam , director of Amnesty International Hong Kong , said the arrests were " ludicrous " and " an outrageous assault on the rights to freedom of expression and peaceful assembly " , reports regional newspaper The Standard . " This past week , we have seen scare tactics straight out of Beijing 's playbook : pro-democracy protest organisers attacked by thugs , prominent activists arrested after being snatched from their homes and streets , and a major rally planned for Saturday banned , " he said . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pro-democracy Demosisto party . His activist career started at the age of 14 , when he and classmate Ivan Lam Long-yin established a student protest group , Scholarism , to protest against a new " patriotic " school curriculum in 2011 . In 2014 , Wong was dubbed " the face of protest " after playing a prominent role in demonstrations against proposed reforms to the Hong Kong electoral system that would have allowed pre-screening of political candidates by China 's ruling Communist Party . The uprising was dubbed the " Umbrella Movement " , because activists used umbrellas to shield themselves from police pepper spray . Wong was convicted of civil disobedience and sentenced to two months in prison . He was released from prison on 17 June , reports CNBC . Neither he nor Chow have played a leading role in the current protests , but Wong has attended some of the marches and has spoken publicly in support of the demonstrators ' demands . The Demosisto party says that Wong has been charged with three offences @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hong Kong Free Press . Issac Cheng , vice-chair of Demosisto , has accused the Hong Kong government of ordering the arrests in order " to spread white terror among the Hong Kong protesters and Hongkongers " . " They are accusing Demosisto members and different high-profile activists in the movement to try to create a fictional atmosphere that there are leaders leading the campaign ...

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It describes scare tactics and events but does not involve a transitive verb with an NP object followed by 'out of' and a VP[-ing] predicate. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Hong Kong pro-democracy campaigner Joshua Wong and two other prominent activists have been arrested in a police crackdown following three months of protests in the Chinese-controlled territory . Police officials say that Demosisto party leaders Wong and Agnes Chow were detained earlier today in connection with a 21 June rally where protestors blockaded police headquarters for 15 hours , reports the BBC . The announcement follows the arrest yesterday of independence campaigner Andy Chan , who is being held on suspicion of rioting and assaulting a police officer during protests . He was arrested at Hong Kong airport while waiting for a flight to Tokyo , says the South China Morning Post . The trio are among around 900 people arrested since the demonstrations began in June , sparked by a bill that would allow Hong Kong residents to be extradited to mainland China . Although the bill has now been suspended , the protests have evolved into pro-democracy marches that have attracted crowds of up to two million people . Confirming Wong 's arrest , the Demosisto party said in a statement on Facebook that he had been " arrested at roughly 7:30 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , when he was suddenly pushed into a private car on the street " . He was then taken to police headquarters in Hong Kong 's Wan Chai district , where Chow is also being held after being arrested at her home . BREAKING : Our secretary-general @joshuawongcf was just arrested this morning at roughly 7:30 , when he was walking to the South Horizons MTR station . He was forcefully pushed into a private minivan on the street in broad daylight . Our lawyers following the case now . Man-kei Tam , director of Amnesty International Hong Kong , said the arrests were " ludicrous " and " an outrageous assault on the rights to freedom of expression and peaceful assembly " , reports regional newspaper The Standard . " This past week , we have seen scare tactics straight out of Beijing 's playbook : pro-democracy protest organisers attacked by thugs , prominent activists arrested after being snatched from their homes and streets , and a major rally planned for Saturday banned , " he said . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pro-democracy Demosisto party . His activist career started at the age of 14 , when he and classmate Ivan Lam Long-yin established a student protest group , Scholarism , to protest against a new " patriotic " school curriculum in 2011 . In 2014 , Wong was dubbed " the face of protest " after playing a prominent role in demonstrations against proposed reforms to the Hong Kong electoral system that would have allowed pre-screening of political candidates by China 's ruling Communist Party . The uprising was dubbed the " Umbrella Movement " , because activists used umbrellas to shield themselves from police pepper spray . Wong was convicted of civil disobedience and sentenced to two months in prison . He was released from prison on 17 June , reports CNBC . Neither he nor Chow have played a leading role in the current protests , but Wong has attended some of the marches and has spoken publicly in support of the demonstrators ' demands . The Demosisto party says that Wong has been charged with three offences @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hong Kong Free Press . Issac Cheng , vice-chair of Demosisto , has accused the Hong Kong government of ordering the arrests in order " to spread white terror among the Hong Kong protesters and Hongkongers " . " They are accusing Demosisto members and different high-profile activists in the movement to try to create a fictional atmosphere that there are leaders leading the campaign ... But I have to emphasise that , for the movement , it is recognised as leaderless and organisation-less , so there are no single leaders that can be leading the whole movement , " he insisted . Joseph Cheng , a retired political scientist , told The Guardian : " This is something the government can do -- massive arrests to dry up and sap the strength of the protest movement . " Meanwhile , a rally scheduled on Saturday by protest-movement the Civil Human Rights Front has been cancelled after authorities refused to grant permission for the demonstration to take place . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate).

Details have emerged of a furious row between Boris Johnson and Sajid Javid following the sacking of one of the Chancellor 's closest advisers by the PM 's chief adviser Dominic Cummings . Only five weeks after being appointed to the role by Mr Johnson , a " livid " Mr Javid is reported to have confronted the prime minister over Number 10 dictating spending policy and the sacking of Sonia Khan - a key member of his Treasury team . It is claimed Mr Cummings suspected Ms Khan of involvement in the leaking of the Operation Yellowhammer no-deal dossier to The Sunday Times , a claim she strongly denies . It has also been reported that she was escorted from 10 Downing Street by police after being fired by Mr Cummings and that her boss , Mr Javid , was not told about her dismissal . A Metropolitan Police spokesperson said : " On Thursday , 29 August , a police officer stationed at the door of No 10 Downing Street escorted a woman from the front door to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the time . This is standard practice if a visitor does not have a pass . " Mr Javid has accused Downing Street of undermining his authority as he announced a relatively modest ? 400m cash boost for 16 to 19-year-olds ' education after Mr Johnson promised a massive ? 14bn extra spending on schools . On Saturday , Mr Javid insisted his relationship with the PM is " fantastic " , but declined to comment on his view of Mr Cummings and dismissed the claim that Mr Cummings was running the Treasury as " nonsense " . The row could not come at a worse time , just days before Mr Javid delivers his first major announcement as chancellor when he unveils the details of the autumn spending review to MPs next week .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'get a kick out of firing guns or bows and arrows' involves an NP object ('a kick') and a gerund phrase ('firing guns or bows and arrows'), but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes deriving pleasure from an activity, which is not consistent with the construction's semantic requirements.

Killing monkeys for fun is a sick , twisted bloodsport for sick , twisted people . No reputable publication or platform should carry adverts for this stomach-churning slaughter and Britons who get a kick out of firing guns or bows and arrows deserve to be hunted down then named and shamed . Trophy hunting , which the Daily Mirror wants banned , is barbaric and arguments that it funds conservation are a transparent , pathetic attempts to justify the unjustifiable . Park rangers culling wildlife is occasionally necessary but there is no acceptable reason for Britons to pay to kill monkeys for a laugh . If we wish to live up to our reputation as a civilised nation , we must stop these misfits with a bloodlust flying out to Africa or wherever to kill wild animals . Encouraging children to take part only underlines how depraved they really are . Barbara Windsor with Boris Johnson when he was London Mayor ( Image : Getty ) |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate.

James Bond is back on track . Production starts on Bond 25 in March 2019 with a new director at the helm , Maniac and True Detective 's Cary Fukunaga . And with the gossip building on who will replace Daniel Craig after his last outing as Bond - Ibris Elba , Tom Hiddleston , Tom Hardy , Henry Cavill , Richard Madden or Aidan Turner have all been mentioned - we 've decided to look back through the last 24 films to find some of our favourite on-screen gadgets . Some are incredible , some just plain stupid . All are part of 007 's rich cinematic tradition that we 've been enjoying since 1962 . MGM/Sony Pictures A garotte wire in a wrist watch . This gadget is used in From Russia With Love by the main Spectre hitman , first in a training exercise and then on Bond himself . Bond of course laughs in the face of danger and uses it on the attacker instead . MGM/Sony Pictures Never trust a lady , especially @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the tip . Worn by Spectre agents in the film , the poison tipped blade pops out at the front of the shoe ready to use it a fight . Die-hard Bond fans will also tell you the shoe appears again in Die Another Day in Q 's lab . MGM/Sony Pictures Who said Bond 's gadgets have to be state of the art ? In Goldfinger Bond puts a rubber duck on his head and uses breathing apparatus to sneak into an enemy facility . MGM/Sony Pictures Yes , the Aston Martin DB5 had machine guns and an ejector seat , but perhaps more interestingly also had a satnav to help Bond get around the English countryside even though it was 1964 , 40 years before the first TomTom satnavs went on sale . MGM/Sony Pictures Odd Job 's bowler hat might not be a Bond gadget as such , but it 's one of the best weapons wielded by a villain by far . MGM/Sony Pictures The jetpack from Thunderball lets Bond escape after killing Jaques @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that the actual pack used during filming worked for real . MGM/Sony Pictures Smoking does indeed kill . Especially when a mini rocket from a cigarette hits you . Bond uses this gadget in You Only Live Twice to kill a technician standing by the entrance controls before entering Blofeld 's volcano base . MGM/Sony Pictures Radioactive lint . Radioactive . Lint . Pop that in your pocket and you can be tracked and saved . MGM/Sony Pictures Q devises an electro-magnetic ring that , when used , means that you 'll always win on a slot machine . Surely that 's more the sort of thing a Bond villain might do do n't you think ? Maybe that 's how they can afford all those fancy gadgets . MGM/Sony Pictures Diamonds Are Forever is also the first time we see Bond using a fingerprint sensor to access a room . The technology then was n't as good as that found on our phones today though @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pretend he is someone else . MGM/Sony Pictures A Rolex Submariner with mini saw and a super magnet inside is a great gadget for Bond . While he does use the saw to cut some rope and escape , he mainly uses the magnet for unzipping the dress of Madeline Smith at the end . MGM/Sony Pictures Live and Let Die started the Roger Moore era and , with that , he got a vast selection of ( sometimes silly ) gadgets to play with . The silliest were perhaps shark gun pellets that swell after impact . Although designed to kill sharks , Bond uses it Dr Kananga to finish him off instead in possibly the most hilarious ending for a villain in the entire series of films . MGM/Sony Pictures When you say the word " gadgets " you think phones , cameras , cool stuff . You do n't think of a fake third nipple . But in the Man With The Golden Gun that 's exactly what Bond @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The Golden Gun . Definitely the coolest gadget that someone other than Bond uses in the movies . MGM/Sony Pictures Not only is Bond 's ski pole gun superb as a surprise gadget , it 's just a taster for the rest of the best opening sequence in all of the films . MGM/Sony Pictures Hiding a gun in a hookah is an incredible niche way to kill someone as we found out in MI6 's offices in The Spy Who Loved Me when Bond goes to visit Q Branch . MGM/Sony Pictures Yes , the Aston Martin DB5 is iconic , but the Lotus Esprit S1 turns into a submarine by retracting its wheels and replacing them with fins to help steer under water . MGM/Sony Pictures Bond does n't need to wait like the rest of us to get the latest gadgets . Here he is in 1977 with a smartwatch getting text messages on his arm from Q. Remember , this was 30 years before the iPhone and 40 years before the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , believe you would read the message on screen , instead making Bond print out the message on a small ticker tape . MGM/Sony Pictures In 1979 , cameras where still pretty bulky , but not for Bond . In Moonraker he uses a tiny camera to snap spy shots . Of course , Bond being Bond he has 007 embossed on the side , presumably so he does n't get it mixed up with the other 00 agents in the canteen . MGM/Sony Pictures As the film 's title suggests , Bond heads to space where he has a laser battle with others to save the day and be back in England by tea time . MGM/Sony Pictures Hidden from sight , as long as you 're wearing a shirt and suit , this wrist dart gun proves the saviour of the day when Bond has to escape from a centrifuge . MGM/Sony Pictures The Identigraph is at MI6 headquarters and used by Bond and Q to put together an image of henchman Emile @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ basic computer graphics were at the time . MGM/Sony Pictures It might seem weird considering the smartwatch evolution and devices like the Apple Watch and Wear OS , but we still do n't really use them to stream live video content as Bond did in Octopussy . MGM/Sony Pictures On the surface it looks like any ordinary-looking horse trailer , however at the press of a button , the rear end of the horse lifts up concealing an Acrostar BD-5J aircraft ready for Bond to make a quick getaway . MGM/Sony Pictures These polarising sunglasses can see through tinted glass , giving Bond a peek at what 's going on in areas he could n't normally access . MGM/Sony Pictures This brings new meaning to the phrase " Ghetto Blaster " . While never used by James Bond , now played by Timothy Dalton , this gadget is tested at Q Branch and is a boombox that fires a rocket . MGM/Sony Pictures This one 's called Dentonite . Yes , it is explosive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bang . MGM/Sony Pictures Literally a " point and shoot " camera , this Polaroid was not only a laser-firing snapper when the shutter was pressed , but also allowed Bond in Licence To Kill to take x-ray pics too . MGM/Sony Pictures Goldeneye saw a new Bond , Pierce Brosnan , and new gadgets . In particular , a deadly phone box that incorporated a large airbag which crushes anyone who happens to be inside . Deadly . MGM/Sony Pictures Another gadget never used by Bond but still fun , this wheelchair and leg cast missile combo hid a missile in the leg cast that could be fired while sitting down . MGM/Sony Pictures Bond 's Sony mobile phone can do a whole stack of things in this film , but remotely drive a BMW is perhaps one of the coolest . It 's a technology that has eventually become possible - to an extent - with Tesla drivers able to control their car in and out of parking spaces using their mobile phone . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is a completely different thing though . MGM/Sony Pictures A Bagpipe that hides a flamethrower and a machine gun sounds pretty deadly . If that does n't get you , the sound probably will . MGM/Sony Pictures X-ray sunglasses , this time allowing Bond to check for concealed weapons . MGM/Sony Pictures Bond 's car in Die Another Day comes with all the usual gadgets , guns and tricks . There 's also the small matter of a cloaking device that allows it to become invisible at the press of a button . MGM/Sony Pictures Poisoned and fighting for his life , Bond , now played by Daniel Craig , rushes to his trusted Aston to use the built-in defibrillator found in the glove compartment . It 's what every car needs . MGM/Sony Pictures " The latest thing from Q branch ; called a radio . " MGM/Sony Pictures It 's about as gadgety @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ A ring used by members of SPECTRE to store details about the evil organisation . Have these people never heard of the cloud ? |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'arise out of' which is a phrasal verb and does not involve a transitive verb with an NP object followed by 'out of' and a VP[-ing] predicate.

HOW many lives has Sam Taylor-Johnson lived in her 52 years on this planet ? Over the years she has been a child whose parents walked out on her , a Young British Artist , a wife ( twice ) , a mother ( four times ) , friend to the famous ( she shared her 40th birthday with Elton John 's 60th ) , socialite , drinker , cancer survivor ( twice ) , the older woman ( her husband the actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson is 24 years younger than her , much to the slavering interest of tabloid newspapers ) , film director of both arthouse and blockbuster movies , Londoner , and Los Angelino . And before she married her current husband she was known as Sam Taylor-Wood She is not , therefore , I think it 's fair to say , lacking in life experience . " There 's a great Joan Didion quote , " Taylor-Johnson reminds me , " which is : ' I 've lost @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . ' " And I definitely feel like that . I sometimes look at pictures of myself from different periods and I think , ' Who is that ? ' And then , sometimes , ' Ooh , I do n't like that person . ' " These days Taylor-Johnson and her family spend their time in LA , surrounded by mountains . " I tend to get up super-early and go hiking . I 've got three dogs . I go hiking with them for an hour , clear my head , come back , get the kids ready for school and then and try and figure out the day . " It 's very different to London life . London life for me was extremely social and a lot of pressure to always be out seeing people and supporting friends ' ventures . In LA we 're home bodies . We stay at home and cook and hang out . " But today she is back in the city she lived in for most of her life . It feels a little strange now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an alien in London . The reason she is here is work . She has a new film to promote . A Million Little Pieces is a story of addiction and rehabilitation , based on James Frey 's controversial book of the same name . It 's very much a " passion project " for both her and her husband , who also stars in it . They wrote it together , raised the money together , and then shot it together , in a mere 20 days , " which was insane , " Taylor-Johnson admits . But also , might have helped in the long run . " It feels appropriate to the material , " she suggests . " It became very clear to us that shooting this as a glossy , well-funded story of addiction just did n't feel quite right . " It 's a raw story that contains the most horrific cinematic dental sequence since Boys from Brazil and the odd spot of male nude wrestling . But it 's not without humour . You get to see Billy Bob Thornton @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ my God , his whole array of outfits is amazing , " she says , laughing . " And every time he 'd come out , he 'd just look at me and go , ' Right ? ' ' Yeah , right , I 'm not arguing . That 's such a powerful statement . ' Her lead actor and husband , meanwhile , gets all the nude shots . " The opening scene where Aaron is dancing naked ; that was our first day and Aaron had n't met a lot of the crew and initially I 'd written that as an empty room . " But then , on the day , I decided to fill it with students at the party . So , he came in completely naked and had to perform in front of all these people he did n't know on day one of the shoot . " But that really put the flag in the sand . ' This is the movie we 're going to make . It 's raw and we all have to be in it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , was Aaron a pure diva on set ? Did he take advantage of his relationship with his director ? She laughs . " Well , the one thing I 'm used to with Aaron is whatever character he 's about to play or is playing is the character I live with . So , Ray from Nocturnal Animals Tom Ford 's creepy thriller in which Mr Taylor-Johnson is very convincing as one of the nastiest characters in contemporary cinema , I was really happy to say goodbye when he left the house . " To play James , Taylor-Johnson says , Aaron even went on a road trip with Frey , to meet his family and visit the rehab facility Frey lived in . " He came back and he had a lot of James 's mannerisms and habits . " The question is , Sam , does Aaron/James take the rubbish out ? " When I ask him . " Frey 's book , it should be said , was something of a succes de scandale . After publication it emerged that Frey 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that were more fiction than biography . Appearing on Oprah , Frey ended up receiving a very public dressing down from the host who had been one of his biggest supporters . But none of that is addressed in Taylor-Johnson 's film . " It 's not that it does n't matter , " she says when I bring it up . " It 's there if anyone wants to read about it . Most of the people I know who have read the book felt the story and the way it was written was so powerful and it affected them in such a deep way that we really just decided to focus on the book . The controversy was something separate . And the film was something new . " Taylor-Johnson read the book when it came out and , she says , it affected her very deeply . You do wonder if she could see echoes of her own story in it . In an interview in the Sunday Times two years ago she revealed that during her first marriage to old Etonian art dealer Jay @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ excess . " I would drink to black out most nights , " she revealed . " I would say I was an alcoholic . " It 's inevitable to wonder if that fed into the film and her interest in the subject matter . " Yes and no , " she says when I bring it up . " The wild years of my art world days are something I went through and came out the other side because I got very sick and so I had to go through a very different recovery having to deal with cancer . So , yes , my understanding is definitely there through experience , as well as the experience of friends and people around me . " Her thirties were tumultuous , certainly . At the age of 29 she was diagnosed with colon cancer . At 33 , breast cancer . By 40 she was a divorcee . But then her childhood was too . The facts of Taylor-Johnson 's childhood are rather astonishing . She grew up in Streatham with her parents Geraldine and David and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dad , who was an accountant for the Hell 's Angels of all things , left home to travel around the world on his bike . He never returned . Her mother then married a postman and they all lived in a hippy commune in East Sussex until Taylor-Johnson was 15 when her mother walked out on them all . A few months later Taylor-Johnson spotted her through a window in a nearby house . There 's an element of a Grimm 's Fairy Tale in all this , I suggest to her . Did it feel like that ? " Sometimes it does . I sometimes do think of the younger , littler me . " She pauses and then tells me a story . " I remember being at a bus stop waiting for my bus to go to school , standing there in the absolute sleeting rain , freezing and I would fantasise about movies and being in the world of them . I 'd stand there in my dream world . I 'm quite a dreamer . It would be something that I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to that person standing there in the freezing cold for two hours for a late bus and how lucky I am . " I 'm not sure if this is a suggestion that her life has been an act of self-realisation or that she is just astonished that she ever managed to bridge the gap from there to here . Because the gap must have seemed huge . Film-making was a " fantasy goal , " she accepts . " It 's not that I had an awareness that it was going to be difficult . It just was n't on my radar that I could do it . Instead , she went to art school , where she began to meet the artists who would become the YBAs . She even went out with Jake Chapman for a time . She worked as a dresser at Royal Opera House and even managed a nightclub in Camden , before her art career took off . When it did , she caught the tail of the YBA moment which gave us Damien Hirst and Tracey Emin and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " It was a real zeitgeist moment , " Taylor-Johnson suggests . " A lot of creative minds bubbling to the surface at the same time and all with very different but very strong ideas ; from Damien to Tracey to Jake and Dinos to Sarah Lucas . There was no common thread . I think the only connective thread was that we were young and British . I do n't think any of us enjoyed being under that banner , especially now that we 're all probably MABAs . " Many of her fellow artists from that time - Gary Hume , Emin , the Chapman brothers - remain some of her closest friends , she says . She was still Sam Taylor-Wood at this point . She was nominated for the Turner Prize in 1998 and majored in video work , often involving celebrities . She famously filmed David Beckham sleeping and got a topless Robert Downey Jr to play Jesus to her Mary in a video pieta that , once you got past the Robert J Downeyness , was actually a potent piece @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Over the last decade her work has rather disappeared from public view . She admits she does n't even have a gallery at the moment . But she is still making work and would like to show again . Still , it is perhaps no surprise that art took second place to life given everything that happened to her in her thirties . She once said that surviving two bouts of cancer and divorce by the age of 40 had given her a core of steel , I remind her . Up to a point , she says . " Yes , I have a core of steel , but any time I have to go through a hospital door I 'm a gibbering wreck . I generally cry every time I see a white coat , even if I 'm just going to have my eyes tested . " The core of steel only really translates when I 'm in a work environment , where I 'm like : ' You can throw as much shit at me as you like . It 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ This is all fun and stupid games . " And it has been thrown at her . Taylor-Johnson made her debut with her highly-acclaimed film about a young John Lennon , Nowhere Boy ( the film on which she met her second husband ; he was playing Lennon ) , and then a few years later , she was given the job of directing the big-screen version of EL James 's erotic novel-turned cultural phenomenon , Fifty Shades of Grey , with Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson in the lead roles . By all accounts , the experience was a fraught one for its director . On set , James turned out to be very hands on . The two women butted heads constantly during filming . " It was a tough experience , " Taylor-Johnson acknowledges , " and ... I know I suffered from it and it took me a long time to recover . The hardest thing for a creative person is to be told how to think and how to do things . I had a strong vision and that vision was challenged @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it finally came out , the film was panned mercilessly . There was a blanket condemnation , I suggest . " Do n't tell me . I do n't read anything , " she says . The truth is the film did n't deserve all of that condemnation . While by no means a masterpiece , it is an efficient , slick piece of storytelling . " I think people sometimes blanket panic from the conversations that arise out of something like Fifty Shades of Grey ; women 's desire and sexuality , " she suggests . " My goal was to have the character played by Dakota usurp the all-great and mighty powerful man who is tempted to control her , and I think that comes across in the film . " But I think people panic when they have a sense that it 's about desire that 's not just very straightforward and very vanilla . " It should also be remembered that the movie , despite everything , was a huge success . A Million Little Pieces , is a much smaller thing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ eye for image-making . And yet , she says , she struggles for work . " I said to Aaron that I feel like every time I do something , I 'm back at ground zero . I still have to fight to get on the general list for movies that I 'd quite like to be in the mix for , and it drives me insane . I 'll hear about ... I do n't know ... A book that I 've loved , and I know I 've made the calls and I 've tried to get the meetings and then I suddenly hear there 's a list of directors on it and I 'm nowhere to be found . And , yeah , I really get frustrated . " The fight to get through the door is as real today as it was when I first started out . A Million Little Pieces is a very small film shot on a shoestring and I had to do that just to remind myself that I was fully capable of making a movie under a lot of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I 've got to start gearing up for whatever I do next . " It 's always about the next thing for Taylor-Johnson . She does n't like to look back . " I 'm always projecting forwards , " she admits . Maybe there 's too much in the past worth forgetting . " Someone said , ' what 's it like to turn 50 ? ' I said , ' f****** great . I am so lucky . ' I 'd like to turn 60 , 70 , 80 , 90 and 100 too . Life is a privilege . I ca n't fear age .

An ex-soldier who may be guilty of a heinous crime -- or may actually be a victim of a high-level conspiracy . A question mark over his innocence , both for the police and for viewers at home . Two main characters : one a working-class veteran , estranged from his beloved child 's mother and struggling to overcome the mental trauma of war ; the other , a powerful and ambitious woman climbing the career ladder . Advertisement No , it 's not last year 's smash-hit drama Bodyguard , and these characters are not David Budd ( Richard Madden ) or Julia Montague MP ( Keeley Hawes ) . What we 're actually talking about is the BBC 's new thriller The Capture with Holliday Grainger and Callum Turner , which feels somehow ... familiar ? Turner stars as Shaun Emery , a British soldier whose conviction for killing a Taliban insurgent in cold blood is overturned on appeal when the video evidence turns out to be seriously flawed . But just after his release , he suddenly finds himself accused of another crime -- and there 's CCTV which apparently proves he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he somehow innocent ? And can you really trust what you see ? Asking those questions ( and more ) is Grainger 's character DI Rachel Carey , an up-and-coming detective who cut her teeth in Counter Terrorism . Despite the parallels , The Capture is far from a knock-off version of Bodyguard . " We were well into prepping it when Bodyguard came out , " producer Derek Ritchie explained on set earlier in 2019 , while executive producer Rosie Alison confirmed : " It was all commissioned before Bodyguard . Absolutely . " Undeterred , they saw Bodyguard 's success as proof of an appetite for similar dramas . " I think they 're really different shows , " Ritchie argued , " but for those primetime audiences who love a conspiracy thriller , who love quite bold exciting characters , and who love really exciting new British talent , and all of that -- we kind of tick all of those boxes really . I like to think we would pick up people who liked Bodyguard , coming to this . " Just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ filmed across London , or as Callum Turner put it : " There 's lots of falling from great heights and jumping out of moving cars . " But there will be no sex or romantic attraction between the two leads -- and Turner told us he wo n't be taking his top off ( " it 's not that kind of show " ) . The six-part drama is written by Ben Chanan , whose previous work includes Cyberbully ( feat . Game of Thrones star Maisie Williams ) and the documentary The Plot to Bring Down Britain 's Planes . Having engaged with issues around social media and terrorism and UK/US intelligence operations , Chanan has now given us a fictionalised story which taps right in to some of the big conversations of our times . We all know that our country is covered with CCTV cameras tracking our every move . We know that facial recognition software is getting more and more sophisticated . We know that viral videos can spread instantly around the world . Frankly , by this point in 2019 , this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . But some recent developments are even more unnerving . Take this photorealistic " fake Obama " created by academics using an AI video tool , with words put directly into his mouth ; could this technology be used to smear political opponents and manipulate the truth ? As " deepfakes " become more popular , will we ever be able to tell what 's real and what 's fake ? That 's not to say that the incriminating CCTV footage is definitely faked-up to frame Shaun for a crime he did n't commit . " We 're certainly not saying whether Shaun is innocent or guilty , at this point , " Alison told us . But it does mean that we can not take anything at face value -- even the evidence right in front of our eyes . The opening episode of The Capture is more of a slow burner than Bodyguard , which kicked things off with that attention-grabbing edge-of-your-seat train bomber sequence . Still : we have been promised a pacy conspiracy thriller full of unexpected twists -- and this could turn @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

Sonia Khan , who also worked for Philip Hammond , was accused of working with the former Chancellor to stop Britain from leaving the European Union without a formal agreement and was escorted out of Number 10 by police .

" Shami Chakrabarti - what a charming woman ...

It is such a big squad that Nathan Jones will have to put one or two or 13 noses out of joint and put up with being unpopular if it means he can stick to a fairly settled XI , a fairly settled formation and pursue the identity he has outlined so passionately , so often over the last eight months . " The be all and end all will be winning football matches -- but there 's a way of doing it , " he said at the start of this season . " I think if fans see players 1 ) working hard and 2 ) they can relate to , so they see a bit of humility about them , an honesty and hard work , that 's a start . " If you then see a structure , a way you play , you 're trying to score goals and there 's a real commitment to it , they will get behind you even more . " If you convert that into clean sheets , goals and winning football matches , then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them that you care as much as them , which we do , then they 'll die for you and that 's what makes a great , great football club .

That had been positives to take out of disappointing results against Charlton and Derby but since then the formation has changed almost every half , capped by a surprise return at Birmingham to the 4-3-3 system which got Gary Rowett the sack . Jones has to convince players and fans that he does n't just know what he 's doing , but that he really believes in what he 's doing . There have been moments this season which have been crying out for deep breaths and cool heads . Instead , too many times in these game-defining little periods , Stoke have looked punch drunk . It is the big players -- including Jack Butland , Danny Batth , Joe Allen and Sam Vokes -- who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ matters . It 's those senior men who need to rise above the pressure and use their experience to get Stoke out of this hole .

There is enough to focus on getting right without worrying about the worriers who , ultimately , really want you to succeed . This team needs everyone it can muster behind them . You 'll never stop the angst and bickering of fans -- and this group of supporters has been remarkably patient -- so do n't be paranoid and do n't poke the bear . In fact , Jones did say he would do an audience with supporters at some stage as a chance to build a relationship and show respect to their opinions , questions and passion . It 's never a bad idea to show appreciation . Nathan Jones applauds Stoke fans after defeat at Birmingham , but how much longer will they applaud back ? @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ keep clean sheets , win games The obvious one overriding all else .

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate, where 'users' is the NP object and 'having audio retained and reviewed by humans' is the VP2[-ing] predicate. It also gives rise to a prevention interpretation, as the users are prevented from opting out of having their audio retained and reviewed by humans. The verb 'opt' fits into one of the categories of verbs that can appear in the V1 slot, specifically by means of exerting force or pressure (metaphorically in this case). Therefore, this sentence is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

( Reuters ) - Apple Inc <AAPL.O> on Wednesday said it would quit its default practice of retaining audio recordings of the requests users make to its Siri personal assistant and limit human review of what audio it does collect to its own employees rather than contractors . The changes come after Apple earlier this month paused a program called Siri grading in which humans listened to audio recordings of users to determine whether the assistant had responded appropriately to requests to do things like read unread messages or upcoming calendar appointments . Apple put the program on hold after the Guardian newspaper reported that contractors working on Apple 's behalf regularly heard confidential information , drug deals and couples having sex . Increased public and political scrutiny of data privacy practices have forced greater transparency from Silicon Valley companies , with Alphabet Inc 's <GOOGL.O> Google pausing reviews of audio recordings from its Google assistant service for all purposes in all languages after a leak of Dutch audio data . Apple has promoted its privacy practices in an effort to distance itself from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in 2011 to limit data collection . Audio recordings are deleted after a set period of time , users were identified by a random number , and data such as a user 's unread messages or calendar appointments were not sent to Apple 's servers .

Apple says the number of audio recordings reviewed was small - less than 0.2% of total requests - but users had no way to opt out of having audio retained and reviewed by humans except turning Siri off altogether .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'take the difficulty out of going out for the day', where 'the difficulty' is an NP complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and 'going out for the day' is a gerund phrase but does not function as a VP2[-ing] predicate with a causee. There is no clear movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, and the construction does not involve a causer and causee relationship as required by the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'pulled out of' in a different context, indicating withdrawal from an activity rather than causing someone to move out of or preventing someone from an activity. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not align with the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The six-part drama received universal critical acclaim and a slew of nominations and awards -- including three Golden Globes -- and stars Hiddleston as luxury hotel manager and former British soldier Jonathan Pine , who is recruited by Angela Burr ( Olivia Colman ) to infiltrate a secret arms trade between the UK and the States , spearheaded by Richard Roper ( Hugh Laurie ) .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes the director pulling out of an activity (directing the new series) due to personal concerns, without involving an NP object that is a causee participating in the event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate. There is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present.

Emil Atack and Joe Dommett 's new show is basically three weeks of Casa Amor ( Picture : ITV/REX ) Summer 's nearly over and that can only mean one thing : Love Island 's been done for weeks and suddenly our social lives have been given a kick up the backside only for us to realise we do n't really have one . For the next three months until Caroline Flack comes out of hiding to sissy that walk into the next Love Island villa our lives are just one big dilemma . Or so we thought . Enter Emily Atack and Joel Dommett with their new dating show , Singletown , which is basically an entire series of Casa Amor -- aka the moment we spend all of Love Island waiting for and are still talking about when it 's over -- spanned across 15 episodes . Bingeable does n't quite cut it . It 's obsessive . Emily and Joel take real-life couples who need to press pause on their relationship , bung them into two houses with other respective newly-singles and allow them to explore @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ partner since they were teens . In Singletown anything can happen -- and after watching episode one , it does . Advertisement Advertisement ' Initially , it seems really savage but as it goes on you really see the point of it , ' Emily explained to Metro.co.uk . ' We have n't just done it to be cruel , these people have chosen to be on here and be single and also knowing what the other one is up to , giving them little snip bits of how the other one is behaving , it only gives them a push , " I need to get out there then . " Emily Atack and Joel Dommett have teamed up for Singletown ( Picture : ITV ) ' Some of them have their guard up thinking they 're still in a relationship and they have to be reminded they 're single and it 's a great opportunity . ' Emily and Joel are n't just fronting Singletown but playing matchmaker , counselor and mentor for the guys and girls . They 're both @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' At first we felt like the awkward parents coming in and they 'd be scared to see us , ' said Emily . ' It took a while before they realised we were there to help and guide them . ' ' We feel very protective of them , ' Joel added . ' I did n't anticipate that . I thought I 'd be in there do my bit and leave but I really cared about them . I really wanted to protect them and make sure they 're ok . Even still now I feel like I can still be there . ' While Love Island would be nothing without its drama , the latest series was celebrated for its girl power -- and rightly so . It soon turned out watching a team of wonder women come together to form an alliance was far more entertaining than tuning in for tears and break-ups . According to Emily , Singletown goes down a similar path . ' There 's moments where these girls who have been made to feel like shit because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are on their own , ' she enthused . ' It 's so interesting how much some of the guys put on this laddish behaviour and saying to the girl , " You need to find your own independence . " And then they go off and find it , having a great time and the guys are like , " What ? " So there 's moments like that when as a woman it 's like " yes ! " . ' ' There 's definitely some twists and turns , ' Joel assured . ' The great thing is it 's an open format . It definitely did n't go the way I thought it was going to go . You sit down with those initial 10 people and you thought , " they 're going to do that . " ' Across the board I think it went differently . It 's really fascinating . ' Singletown is coming to ITV2 soon . If you 've got a story , video or pictures get in touch @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ calling 020 3615 2145 or by visiting our Submit Stuff page - we 'd love to hear from you . |

Former Vice President Joe Biden is defending the war story he told on the campaign trail that conflated details from different heroic events and got key details wrong . Biden called the individual details of the story he told ' irrelevant ' when stacked up against the issue of presidential ' judgement , ' amid new scrutiny of his reputation for gaffes on the campaign trail .

Poised to pin a silver star on the serviceman 's uniform , in Biden 's version , he stopped when the sailor told him he did n't deserve it . ' He said , ' Sir , I do n't want the damn thing !

The key elements of the story were a Navy captain getting the silver star from Biden in Kunar province for an act of bravery involving rappelling . Biden visited Afghanistan 's Kunar province in 2008 , when he was still a U.S. senator , and was there when Major General David Rodriguez bestowed a bronze star on an Army enlisted man - Specialist Milez Foltz . That is the only medal ceremony in Kunar province which comports with his telling . But then in 2011 , Biden went to Wardak province - where he did bestow a bronze star on a reluctant hero .

But Workman did not rappel at all , did not receive the silver star and was not in the Navy , and was enlisted , not an Army captain .

Former Vice President Joe Biden is defending the war story he told on the campaign trail that conflated details from different heroic events and got key details wrong . Biden called the individual details of the story he told ' irrelevant ' when stacked up against the issue of presidential ' judgement , ' amid new scrutiny of his reputation for gaffes on the campaign trail . ' That has nothing to do with judgment of whether or not you send troops to war , the judgment of whether you bring someone home , the judgment of whether you decide on a healthcare policy , ' said Biden , who has been building a campaign message around his ability to beat President Donald Trump . ' The details are irrelevant in terms of decision-making , ' Biden told NPR in an interview from Iowa , where he is working to maintain his poll lead . Former Vice President Joe Biden said in an interview the details of war stories he conflated about different heroes were ' irrelevant ' to the judgement of being president As he brushed off the details , Biden tried @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 've never seen the party as certain of the need to defeat the incumbent president , ' he said . His push came after Biden earlier defended the heartfelt war story he told a New Hampshire crowd last month as having gotten its ' essence ' correct after an analysis showed it was nearly entirely fabricated , or a combination of unrelated memories . He brushed aside a Washington Post report showing he got numerous details wrong when he talked about awarding a Navy war hero the Silver Star . ' The assertion I made was there was a young man that I attempted to pin a medal on at the request of the commander and he said ' I do n't want it . He died . He died . ' It turns out that 's true . The young man did say that , ' Biden told The Washington Post of his tale of awarding a medal to a soldier who told Biden he did n't want it because the colleague he was trying to save died . ' They went back , I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but , yeah , it 's exactly true . That 's what I was talking about . There was a separate incident that occurred in a different time and a different circumstance . But what I was talking about was a young man . I mean , what is the gaffe when I said there is a young man I tried to pin a medal on and he said ' I do n't want it sir . He died . He died . He died , ' ' Biden said . ' I was making the point how courageous these people are . How incredible they are . These generation of warriors , these fallen angels we 've lost . I do n't know what the problem is .

Before Barnett joined ( which admittedly was only after 5 games , 3 in the league ) we looked like we lacked leadership at the back , Ruddy was short of confidence , R.Martin had nt yet taken on the role of v.captain he now seems to bring to the team and Ward/Nelson/Askou were all quietly just getting on with it . Then Barnett came in and i do nt know if anyone else noticed the amount of shouting/directing he was giving to the back 4 but for me it was definately noticeable the change in leadership - it seemed as if because he was on loan from the prem he automatically took control from Ward .

Ward and Zak have been excellent for me and maybe playing these two behind fox at the base of the diamond is another reason why Fox has been playing so well recently ? /quoteActually think this where Barnett has the edge of Ward . Before Barnett joined ( which admittedly was only after 5 games , 3 in the league ) we looked like we lacked leadership at the back , Ruddy was short of confidence , R.Martin had nt yet taken on the role of v.captain he now seems to bring to the team and Ward/Nelson/Askou were all quietly just getting on with it . Then Barnett came in and i do nt know if anyone else noticed the amount of shouting/directing he was giving to the back 4 but for me it was definately noticeable the change in leadership - it seemed as if because he was on loan from the prem he automatically took control from Ward . Not saying this is the sole reason we ' ' ve done so well as we ' ' ve still let in a lot of goals and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ than both Ward and Barnett , i just think the effect Barnett had on organisation and his influence over Ward can not be underestimated . quote user= " ? ? ? ?

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'opting out of' which is a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase, not involving a transitive verb with an NP object that functions as a causee. Therefore, it does not qualify as an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

First Amazon , then Google , and now Apple : it seems that every company with a digital assistant to its name uses human beings to review a selection of the interactions that users are having with their smart speakers and phones . After a whistleblower tipped off the Guardian to the practice in regards to Siri , Apple confirmed that " a small portion of Siri requests " do get reviewed by contracted workers , though the recordings are not linked to an Apple ID . Information such as location , contact details , and other app data are logged and included with the recordings , according to the anonymous tipster who contacted the Guardian . " Siri responses are analysed in secure facilities and all reviewers are under the obligation to adhere to Apple 's strict confidentiality requirements , " Apple says , adding that less than 1 percent of daily Siri requests get reviewed in this way . The Guardian 's source says a lot of the recordings come from accidental activations : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ encounters have all apparently been captured and reviewed . As with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant , the aim of this review process is to improve accuracy , Apple says -- workers have to grade the clips , usually just a couple of seconds long , on whether Siri dealt with the interaction appropriately . It 's still a little disconcerting that real-life human beings could be listening to your daily chit chat if Siri is within listening distance . At the moment there 's no way of opting out of having your recordings reviewed in this way . Given Apple 's focus on user privacy , it may well take steps to further anonymise the recordings before they 're reviewed , or give users more options over how their recordings get processed . As is often the case though , it 's taken some investigative reporting to bring the practice to light . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The verb 'gets' is transitive and selects an NP object 'comic mileage', but the phrase 'out of offering a behind-the-scenes account...' does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes the source or basis of the comic mileage, which is not consistent with the properties of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Eddie Murphy is the man in Dolemite Is My Name , an enjoyable star vehicle that provides the beloved comic with one of his most substantial roles as the real-life Rudy Ray Moore , an unsuccessful entertainer who finally found fame by adopting an outrageous onscreen persona . The Oscar-nominated actor taps into Moore 's drive and desperation , providing this oddball true story with a lingering pathos ; underneath his alter ego Dolemite 's bravura was a fear of becoming a permanent nobody . Receiving a limited Stateside theatrical release starting October 4 , this Netflix film ought to be well-received by fans of Moore , who died in 2008 at the age of 81 . Awards buzz for Murphy should also elevate Dolemite Is My Name 's profile , as will the universal appeal of watching a man with a dream become a star -- no matter how critically derided his 1975 breakthrough film Dolemite was . Set in Los Angeles in the ' 70s , the biopic explores how Moore ( Murphy ) struggled to establish an entertainment career well into his 40s , eventually creating the character of Dolemite , a raunchy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Garnering a following among African-American audiences , Moore turns his attention to the silver screen , obsessed with becoming a movie star . Screenwriters Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski ( Ed Wood , Man On The Moon ) often chronicle outsiders who fearlessly pursue their passion , even if the world is n't ready for their bizarre visions , and so it 's understandable why they 'd be drawn to Moore 's quixotic aspirations . Hustle & Flow director Craig Brewer provides a pretty conventional structure , finding ample chuckles as Moore refuses to let obstacles get in the way of his ambitions . Murphy never condescends to his subject , whose lightning vocal delivery and rhythmic flow became foundational inspirations for hip-hop . With his kinetic energy , the 58-year-old actor channels Moore 's unbridled enthusiasm , but he also hints at the terror fuelling this showman 's determination . Here , the middle-aged Moore senses he may have missed his chance to be famous , and that anxiety haunts his every scheme . A superstar since he was young , Murphy did n't face the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's poignant to watch him reveal the naked insecurity that 's at the heart of so many performers . Not unlike Ed Wood or The Disaster Artist , Dolemite Is My Name gets comic mileage out of offering a behind-the-scenes account of the making of an infamous but not particularly good film . And while it 's amusing to see Moore bluff his way through getting Dolemite realized , Brewer and his screenwriters provide familiar scenes of bad acting and poorly staged sequences , all executed with a na ? ve certainty on the participants ' part that they 're working on something great . But those laughs have a sting -- we never forget the stakes for Moore , who risked his financial future on Dolemite coming to theatres . Among a large ensemble , the standout , alongside Murphy , is Da'Vine Joy Randolph , who plays Lady Reed , a performer who lacks confidence until Moore encourages her to be herself . Soon , Lady Reed blossoms into a comedic dynamo , and Randolph animates this woman 's excitement at unleashing her full potential . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Name 's subtler points : Sometimes , betting on yourself inspires others to believe in themselves , too .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'take the guesswork out of gardening' does not involve a causee NP object participating in the event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'guesswork' is an NP complement of the complex preposition 'out of', and 'gardening' is a gerund functioning as the object of the preposition, not as a VP[-ing] predicate.

Bruce says United are ' working on one or two things ' as they look to end the window with more deals . Below we will keep you up to speed with the latest transfer news and rumours on a big week for Newcastle . Stick with us for all the latest reaction from St James ' Park and remember to follow our Instagram account ( @ChronicleNUFC ) and our NEW transfers Facebook group where you can get notifications to your phone when anything happens . Clubs up and down the country are currently preparing for one of the most hectic days in the football calendar . With just over 24 hours remaining until the transfer window slams shut , Premier League and Championship sides are frantically working to get deals completed ahead of Thursday 's 5pm deadline . When completing deals , clubs have to be careful and be sure they are working within the squad @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ season . Clubs in the league are required to name a squad of 25-players by 5pm on the day after the close of each transfer window . So by 5pm on Friday , August 9 , clubs in England 's top tier will have submitted their chosen squads . Within that 25 , eight must be homegrown , and clubs are only permitted to select a maximum of 17 foreign players , but there are no limits on the number of under-21 players which can be used clubs throughout the season . Bryan Bell nearly missed the birth of his daughter because Newcastle United were playing at home . It was only Wolves in the Championship , but 20 years of loyalty is hard-wired . The only home games he 's missed over two decades have been for the occasional family holiday and when Heidi was born -- but even then it was a close-run thing . On Sunday , United will kick @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Premier League 's blue riband sides and he wo n't be there . " It 'll feel pretty numb , to be honest , " he admits of the prospect of missing the one thing he 's built his week around since he was 14 . After a summer unlike any other at Newcastle , it is what the supporters do next which is the intriguing sub-plot to Sunday 's season opener against Arsenal . The battle in the Premier League is one front for United . The war for hearts and minds feels like another . " Rafa Benitez represented hope , " Bryan says . " Now that he 's gone we 're back to being Mike Ashley 's football club and why should I support that ? " It should not be like this but the chasm between some fans and the club 's ownership that has widened with almost every passing year under Ashley is now too big a bridge for some fans to cross on Sunday . The climax of the summer transfer window is approaching and Premier League clubs are scrambling to secure deals before Thursday 's 5pm deadline . Newcastle United look set to add at least one more name alongside the permanent signatures of Joelinton and Allan Saint-Maximin , with Emil Krafth about to move from Amiens SC for a fee supposedly in the region of ? 7m . The Swedish defender has been pictured on Tyneside already , with the mere formalities of the deal remaining before the player can be officially announced . What type of player is he , though , and why are the club interested ? Let 's take a look . Firstly , regarding the basics , Krafth is 25 years-old , he 's an international for his country , and he played 3736 minutes in all competitions last season . Throughout the entirety of those minutes , Krafth was deployed as a right-back , with little offensive intent demonstrated as he primary refrained from progressing into the final third . Allan is a real livewire . He come on the other day and was really sharp , he told Sky Sports . He is ( a character ) . He has settled in really well . Normally when players come into the club it takes them a good couple of weeks to settle down and relax but straight away he has made himself known . He is a good player . I think he has a lot to offer in terms of last season we scored our goals from working hard and getting teams on the counter attack . With Allan he can create something out of nothing . Allan in training and the game we played , he is creating chances where they should n't really happen . I think he is going to bring a lot to the team . 17:21 17:17 17:16 I really @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if it could go to the wire on Saturday . We 've got one or two things bubbling away but if it closed tomorrow , I 'm delighted with what we 've done . We 've spent a hell of a lot of money on two players , two quality players , which I think is the way forward rather than having six or eight . The way forward now , for me anyway , is quality and you can see a bit of quality in what we 've brought in today . 17:14 It is never the ideal scenario , but Newcastle have done business on deadline day in recent years . Federico Fernandez and Miguel Almiron arrived on the final day of the summer and January windows respectively last season while loan deals for Christian Atsu , Islam Slimani and Kenedy were completed on deadline day in recent years . A : I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ players who have come in have a lot to prove . Newcastle have at least filled some problem positions but now the new boys must hit the ground running . Joelinton ( Image : Newcastle United via Getty Image ) 16:50Andrew Musgrove Q : What other position are they looking at improving after Krafth ? A : Steve Bruce has mentioned the words " extra quality " a couple of times now . Most positions are looking filled up but another wide player could still be a possibility - and if there is an astronomical bid from a Championship club for Gayle that could make things very interesting . Kylian Mbappe #7 of Paris Saint-Germain tries to control the ball against Emil Krafth #4 of Amiens SC during the Ligue 1 game between Paris Saint-Germain and Amiens SC ( Image : Getty Images ) 16:40Andrew Musgrove Chris Brown asks " why did n't we sign Harry Wilson ? " Q : I was told he was an option @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In the mean time , Newcastle pushed on and signed ASM . Wilson has arrived at Bournemouth now so it 's one we can only sit back and wonder what might have been . Harry Wilson of Liverpool celebrates after scoring a goal during the pre-season friendly match between Borussia Dortmund and Liverpool FC 16:36Andrew Musgrove Paul Milloy asks : " Anything in the Thiago Maia or Jordan Ibe links ? " Q : I think they are players that have been offered to Newcastle by agents but their wages and timing in the window may not tally . Thiago Maia Alencar of Lille during the French League 16:26Andrew Musgrove Hedders asks : " If there is ? 40-50m left in the budget why are we ' happy ' with the current crop of strikers and not actively looking to improve it further ? " A : Well we are banking on Joelinton hitting the ground running . That did n't happen for Almiron in terms of goals so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you hint at , suddenly you are looking to Muto or an unfit Gayle to deliver . ( Image : Newcastle United via Getty Image ) 16:13Andrew Musgrove Kevin Monaghan asks : Any more word of Andy Carroll rumours ? A : It 's one that ca n't be discounted , it could even happen after deadline day as he 's out of contract . Carroll is closing in on fitness but a lot of clubs have been frightened off by his injury record . He 's keen to sign for Newcastle but it will be all eyes to see if there 's a space in the squad for him . Andy Carroll of West Ham Unted reacts during the Premier League match between Hull City and West Ham United 15:59Andrew Musgrove Alan Dale asks : " Why has Mike Ashley suddenly started spending cash after years of not doing so ? " Q : Well , Newcastle have banked a lot of TV money in the last @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them . Some people close to the club have suggested he is trying to flex his muscle to prove a point to Rafa Benitez . He could have also sat down with Benitez and worked with him of course but that 's a different argument . 15:45Andrew Musgrove Stephen Lock asks , who will be the players left out or sold from the 25 man squad in your opinion ? A : Jack Colback certainly seems to be near the bottom of the pecking order while the likes of Jamie Sterry , Murphy and Lazaar are also in the danger zone going into deadline day . Jack Colback ( Image : Newcastle United via Getty Image ) 15:37Andrew Musgrove James Knowlson asks : Is there a chance NUFC will use domestic loans ? Q : Steve Bruce has mentioned things are bubbling away and that 's certainly a possibility but the squad needs to be trimmed down . There will have to be some exits too , Jacob @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Live Q&A : Question One Tino 's Fur Coat asks Lee Ryder Q : All of the signings have spoken about contact or bids from nufc in January . Is n't it safe to surmise that the club were fully aware of the probability of Rafa leaving back then ? Given that they were not his targets ? A : What I can certainly say is that Steve Nickson had some different ideas to Rafa Benitez . They did n't always agree on targets but that did n't stop them stockpiling reports on players . ASM has stated he was approached in December while Joelinton was a deal that was ready to be agreed in principle in February but Benitez did n't want to go with it . That does n't mean to say Rafa was wrong as he wanted to play in a different way and has an excellent contacts book himself so would have been able to mould an exciting team had he been given more control . |

The former Prime Minister has doled out 41 accolades including knighthoods , peerages and OBEs to loyalists who propped her up in power or were with her in the Downing Street bunker in the dying days of her premiership Shameless Theresa May today showers her cronies with gongs - despite vowing to overhaul the system after David Cameron rewarded allies .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'finding something positive out of something so horrific', where 'out of' is followed by an NP ('something so horrific') rather than a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, which are key characteristics of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Ben died shortly before Christmas 2017 . The day ? before the funeral a letter arrived with news his organs had saved three people . A man aged 52 received Ben 's liver and two men in their 30s got his kidneys . Karen , 50 , said : " Reading three families had the best ? possible Christmas was amazing -- Ben would 've been so proud . " Ben 's heart was pure gold .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). It mentions 'opt out of consenting to donating', which involves a different construction where 'out of' is part of a phrasal verb 'opt out of' followed by a gerund, but lacks the necessary components (V1 and NP object) to be considered the transitive out of -ing construction. Additionally, it does not convey a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

A hard-hitting film underling the importance of signing the organ donor register has been premiered in Aberdeen -- and there have already been calls for it to go national . To mark Organ Donation Week , an invited audience gathered at the Belmont Filmhouse in Aberdeen yesterday to watch the hour-long feature telling the stories of north-east residents whose lives have been saved thanks to organ donations . The film also gives first-hand accounts from parents of a man who saved several lives by donating his kidneys , lungs and a heart valve .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It involves the phrase 'in and out of emerging economies', which is not a VP[-ing] predicate but a prepositional phrase describing the movement of capital flows. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the sentence does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The governor of the Bank of England , Mark Carney , has suggested cryptocurrencies could help the world wean itself off from the dominance of the dollar . But is this good news or bad news for cryptocurrencies ? There has been a huge shift in the global economy over the past 60 years . The US is still one of the biggest economic forces around the globe , but its influence on the world stage has waned as emerging economies have developed . The US accounted for as much of 40% of the world 's gross domestic production ( GDP ) at the start of the 1960s but that figure is closer to 15% today , and its share of international trade has fallen to about 10% . Meanwhile , countries like China have seen their share of global GDP rise from just 2.3% in 1980 to around 18% today , and it is now the largest country in terms of international trade by accounting for over 12% of the total . Overall , emerging market 's share of global GDP has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and that is forecast to reach 75% by 2030 . And yet , the US dollar still plays an outsized role in the global economy . Two-thirds of all emerging market external debt , global equities , and government foreign exchange reserves are denominated in dollars . Countries that generate around 70% of the world 's GDP use the dollar as an anchor currency , and one-third of all countries directly peg their own currencies to the greenback , as the world 's reserve currency . While the world economy has clearly rebalanced itself over recent decades , the dominance of the dollar has not changed -- and some believe this is becoming a problem . Globalisation has intensified the financial integration of the world economy , but the dollar remains the currency of choice , whether that be for cross-border transactions , debt , or financial and foreign exchange trading . But this means developments in the US that influence the dollar 's exchange rate end up having a greater impact on the rest of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Reserve ( Fed ) leads other central banks when it comes to monetary policy . This , as some economists have described , means the global financial cycle is a dollar cycle . In a nutshell , the world is too reliant on one country 's currency and this will allow financial crises to spread to others quickly . Last month , the governor of the Bank of England ( BoE ) , Mark Carney , said that this meant governments were having to hoard huge amounts of dollars to protect themselves against swings in the US economy . These have become more common amid the US President Donald Trump 's trade war with China , as part of his wider overhaul of the country 's economic policy . It also exposes the world to this year 's revival of the currency war between the US and China . The increased stockpiling of dollars means borrowing costs have increased and is why the world has suffered from lacklustre inflation over the past decade , facilitating record-low interest rates . Learn about trading interest rates The brakes are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ economy remain abundant . The rise of protectionism means international trade and globalisation are being picked apart , fears that a recession is around the corner are growing , and politics is becoming more unpredictable . Central banks have managed to keep the ship steady but have struggled to combat low inflation and , with little room for interest rates to fall further , some question what they have left in the toolbox to help revive the economy . Carney ultimately believes the dollar 's dominance is now a hurdle to a recovery . ' The combination of heightened economic policy uncertainty , outright protectionism and concerns that further , negative shocks could not be adequately offset because of limited policy space is exacerbating the disinflationary bias in the global economy , ' Carney said in a speech last month . The dollar has not always been the currency of choice . The UK 's sterling was the world 's reserve currency until the country began to suffer economic weakness while the US experienced rapid growth . The pound began @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1933 and ran level with the dollar until the end of the decade , according to the European Central Bank ( ECB ) . Still , sterling , while still one of the most widely-traded currencies in the world , represents less than 5% of all currency reserves today . Those that believe the dollar 's dominance has become a global problem do not expect swift change . Nobody thinks the power of the dollar or its role in the world economy is under immediate threat or that radical change is a way of addressing the pressing economic issues at hand . But Carney and others are urging economists and central banks to begin thinking longer-term . ' While the real economy , the real global economy is being reordered , the international monetary and financial system has barely begun its transition , ' the governor said in a speech in Tokyo earlier this year . Learn about forex trading and how it works China 's emergence as the world 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ raised the profile of the renminbi . For example , in just two years the renminbi has gone from barely featuring in oil future benchmarks to being more widely used than sterling . Carney said last month that the renminbi 's reputation is growing as China continues to grow its international trade : ' The greater use of the renminbi in international trade is also leading to its growing use in international finance . This has been enabled by reforms to China 's monetary , foreign exchange , and financial systems that have liberalised and improve its financial market infrastructure , making the renminbi a more reliable store of value . ' Still , while the renminbi looks like a natural successor to the dollar as a possible new reserve currency that could wean the world 's reliance on the US , Carney believes ' much more is required ' before it is ready to take up the mantle . It is not the preferred choice for many . For Carney , the answer does not involve swapping ' one currency hegemon for another ' , but something @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Cryptocurrencies are controversial to say the least , and the attitude of central bankers and economists is sceptical . But Carney is one of a handful that sees their potential . A digital currency could ' dampen the domineering influence of the US dollar on global trade ' while building future financial architecture around cryptocurrencies ( like blockchain ) could displace the dollar 's dominance within credit markets . If the world uses a digital currency for international trade and to access debt , then spill overs from fluctuations in the US economy will be less severe . Plus , it would help minimise the dollar-induced volatility of capital flows in and out of emerging economies that often cause crises . When Facebook unveiled its plans to launch a new cryptocurrency backed by a consortium of big-name businesses earlier this year , most central bankers threw cold water over the idea immediately . The French finance minister and the head of the US Financial Services Committee have both said they will not even consider it . Carney welcomed the initiative earlier this year @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ how cryptocurrencies look set to revolutionise how finance works around the world , but he , like most of his counterparts , ultimately think it is n't the answer . ' There are a host of fundamental issues that Libra must address , ' Carney said . ' BoE and other regulators have been clear that unlike in social media , for which standards and regulations are only now being developed after the technologies have been adopted by billions of users , the terms of engagement for any new systemic private payments system must be in force well in advance of any launch . ' The fact there is discussion that cryptocurrencies could replace the US dollar as a new world currency should be encouraging for existing cryptos like bitcoin or litecoin . However , there is virtually no chance that central banks and governments around the world will formally adopt any existing cryptocurrencies on the market -- primarily because they ca n't control them . Central banks need to be able to oversee the currencies they deal in , and the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to achieve . This is one of the reasons why other centralised cryptocurrencies , such as ripple , have been created . Read more on how to trade bitcoin Many will argue that bitcoin and others will naturally benefit from central banks and governments adopting cryptocurrencies , but it could , in fact , be bad news . If a cryptocurrency or digital currency is to prove the answer to the bank 's economic woes , it will be one that they design . If a new cryptocurrency was to be jointly launched by numerous countries around the world , it could end up drawing interest away from the cryptocurrencies currently on the market . With this in mind , Carney has suggested a ' synthetic hegemonic currency ( SHC ) ' -- one not tied to a single nation but supported by a varied basket of assets or fiat currencies , and one less reliant on the value of the dollar . He says this ' would be best provided by the public sector , perhaps through a network of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' and more balanced system would help reduce the spread of crises , and if central banks actively encouraged a new SHC then it could also succeed the dollar 's dominance in credit markets and make it a more reputable and reliant . If the SHC 's value was derived from a balanced basket of assets and reserves then more countries would be willing to borrow using SHCs rather than dollars , helping them diversify their debt and wean themselves off the greenback . Ultimately , a new global digital currency could allow the world to break free from the tight spot they find themselves in , penned in between ultra-low interest rates and lacklustre inflation . The world economy is very different compared to 60 years ago , but the dollar is as dominate as ever . The greenback 's dominance is too great , and the risk of a global crises being borne out of a downturn in the US is too high . At a time when Trump is in charge and heavily critical @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into reality . Central banks and governments have already started to adopt the likes of blockchain ( which cryptocurrencies run-off ) , but there is yet to be a cryptocurrency capable of winning widespread support . It seems bitcoin and other cryptos have provided the inspiration and the framework for a new global digital currency . Although they might benefit from the growing acceptance of cryptocurrencies if governments and central banks start to adopt them , they may also be threatened by any new SHC that is created . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'made a career out of using her body in her art' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The best superhero games make you feel like you 're actually embodying the powers and responsibilities that define your favorite heroes . Reading about their righteous actions in comics is one thing , but getting to control them as they fight crime and defeat the forces of evil is something else entirely . Suddenly you 're right there in the action , punching bad guys square in the jaw and rescuing innocents before they fall prey to the schemes of twisted villains . Whether these heroes were borne of comics or games , playing as them is a joy as you save the day time and again . Before we get into our list of the best superhero games ever made , there 's one ground rule : we 're only allowing one game per hero ( crossovers not included ) , otherwise this list would be crowded with a certain series of Batman games . With that , put on your mask , slip into those tights , and get ready to become the superhero you were meant to be with these amazing games . At face value , The Flash looks like a typical brawler , but having the power to dash between enemies using super speed completely flips the script . Activating Flash 's super speed slows the world down while allowing him to maintain velocity , so you can see what it looks like from his point of view when he goes full-blur and puts his enemies in the ground . Need I say any more ? Play it on : Game Boy Advance It 's rare @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ which makes High Moon Studios ' Deadpool quite the treasure indeed . This third-person hack-and-slash drops you into the boots of the Merc with a Mouth , and lets you loose on hordes of disposable , meat-filled enemies in a bloody action adventure that never misses the chance to crack a joke . It 's a good thing , too , because while the combat starts to get stale by the time the credits roll , that stellar script and wonderful comedy more than make up for it . Deadpool 's meta , fourth-wall-breaking antics are enjoyable from beginning to end . Plus , there 's a scene where you 're able to slap an unconscious Wolverine for a solid three minutes , and who does n't want to do that ? Play it on : PC , PS3 , and Xbox 360 Scribblenauts started with the ambitious concept of conjuring any word you could imagine , and it has only grown from there .

Scribbling protagonist Max can summon Batman to solve his problems , or a dozen different Batmen to deal with a new logic puzzle . Unmasked has a massive DC-themed vocabulary , and in addition to letting you summon the entire Green Lantern Corps to help you solve a riddle , the encyclopedic collection of names doubles as a Wiki that gives you background on every single DC term included . So , hey , it 's educational ! Its such a thorough celebration of DC 's past and present , that it 's hard not to feel all the joy dancing across your screen at all times , like waves of transformative radiation .

The well-told story also features full voice acting from almost the entire cast of the film , with Hugh Jackman himself lending his suitably gruff tones to the proceedings . Unfortunately , the movie 's infamously awful interpretation of Deadpool turns up in the game , too , so it is n't all plain sailing . Play it on : PC , PS3 , Xbox 360 , and Nintendo Wii Through much of the 2000s , Activision found a real niche for itself publishing dungeon crawlers based around comic book super stars . After increasingly well-made adventures like X-Men : Legends and the first Marvel : Ultimate Alliance , the series reached its loot @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . While in many ways Ultimate Alliance 2 re-purposed the formula from its predecessor almost note for note , the incremental adjustments establish it as the pinnacle of the franchise . It features a huge roster of stars from all over the Marvel Universe , has the best visuals in the series , and is built around the hero vs. hero Civil War story-line , making its plot a bigger draw than you might expect . It has its flaws , but if all you 're looking for is to sprint down dungeon corridors and punch Magneto in the face , you 've found your game . Platinum Games has superheroism in its blood . Bayonetta and the Transformers Devastation may be lacking in capes and Kryptonite , but they prove how skilled Platinum is at working with the sorts of giant explosions , eye-catching aesthetics , and giddy heart that make superheroes so beloved . So it 's not surprising that when Platinum tried its hand at a literal superhero game - The Wonderful 101 - it hit the nail on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 101 , you control a 100-strong team of superheroes as they battle against a powerful alien force trying to take over the world . In proper Platinum form , you fight battles that both look and feel larger than life , but with a twist : the mass of superheroes under your control combine to create gigantic weapons that you use in battle , letting you feel just as big and powerful as the things you 're fighting . While the game does stumble in places ( the Wii U GamePad is occasionally crowbarred in with painful results ) , its silly affection for everything superhero-y makes it difficult not to love . Play it on : Wii U From Star Wars to Lord of the Rings , the Lego games have proven that just about everything is better in brick form .

Playing Spiderman as he teams up with Black Widow to defeat Venom and make silly block puns is really all you need to have a good time here , and Lego Marvel does n't overcomplicate the mash-ups . Yet , in its own goofy way , it remains loyal to the Marvel universe , making each character feel essential to the cast and giving them abilities that uniquely fit them , like the Hulk being able to throw cars and make competent use of a computer . It does n't have much to offer players hoping for a challenge or a serious story , but it 's pure and simple fun , and that 's all it needs to be . If you were to ride a time machine back to 2006 ( or maybe just spin the world in the other direction , Superman-style ) , you 'd probably get a lot of raised eyebrows over the idea that Saints Row would eventually include a superhero game . But my , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ incredible powers like super speed and energy projection , out to save Earth from world-hopping evil , headquartered in a secret Saints-cave , and decked out in matching outfits . I 'm gon na say that qualifies . Saints Row 4 transformed the post-modern sandbox into a profane riff on The Matrix , and it 's an absolute blast to explore and destroy as you see fit . You 're faster than a speeding bullet and more powerful than a locomotive , exploring the virtual city of Steelport just like Superman would - were he a sociopathic , deposed President that loves Biz Markie . That alone makes the game worthwhile , turning the simple act of moving from one place to another into a high-speed adventure . But toss in progressively more intense powers you unlock as you go and ridiculous slapstick comedy , and it 's a game that 's hard not to love , no matter how many dick jokes it tells .

While the first two games have their charms , Second Son is a fuller package , with tons of side content and visual flourishes that make the heroes and the city they 're trying to save feel alive . Plus , it gives you access to the sort of raw power you always want to get your hands on , but so rarely do . Playing as Delsin gives you the feeling of truly controlling a superhero .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'choosing to opt out of being members of the European Union' involves 'opt out of' followed by a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of'. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The Faroe Islands held a general election on 31 August . Lise Lyck writes that while the size of the population in the Faroe Islands is small , the islands are of wider significance , particularly given the environmental importance of the North Atlantic and renewed interest in the region following Donald Trump 's ' offer ' to buy Greenland .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'choosing to opt out of being members of the European Union' involves 'opt out of' followed by a gerund phrase, but there is no NP object between the verb 'opt' and 'out of', and the subject 'they' (implied) is not causing another NP to move or preventing another NP from doing something. Therefore, it does not meet the criteria for the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It mentions 'taken out of racing service', which is a passive construction but lacks the necessary VP2[-ing] predicate and does not fit the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

I see from ' Classic & Sports Car ' that E2A , the last all-Jaguar competition car and ' missing link ' between racing D and road-going E type , is to be raced at Goodwood in September . For those who do n't know the story -- or appreciate the significance of the car -- E2A was designed as a competition car that would be used to test the production independent rear suspension . It was run in Cunningham colours as a quasi private entrant car at Le Mans in 1960 , where it suffered engine problems and was retired after 89 laps . After that , it was lightly modified for a short and generally undistinguished racing career in the USA , where it was increasingly outclassed by the new generation of dedicated and ultimately rear-engined sports racers . It was then returned to the factory , where it was little used for many years . E1A , the other E Type progenitor was scrapped , and E2A -- also hand-built one-off -- very nearly went the same way . It was saved by ex-Jaguar apprentice Roger Woodley , acting for Guy Griffiths . After @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up , and only seen on track for demonstrations , it was sold at auction in 2008 . The new owner -- who it is , I do n't know -- has had a ' sympathetic restoration ' done and has already raced it at this years Le Mans Classic . This car is a vital link in the evolution of both the E Type and the IRS used on Jaguar cars from Mk IX to XJS and beyond . It has never been stuffed , never mind miraculously recreated from a subframe , like one or two other machines out there . I love historic racing , but feel different about this car . Would anybody else join me in urging the owner to reconsider ? The car is unique and original . Given the scant regard that some Goodwood racers show for the irreplaceable cars they are racing , it should n't be risked . To quote or paraphrase Doug Nye : " Once lost , originality can never be replaced " The only compelling reason I can see for this car not to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ aside , is that it would appear that Jaguar only sold the car to the Griffiths family on condition that it was never to be raced , if that condition is documented anywhere on works headed paper then the value of E2A will presumably drop like a stone should E2A indeed be classified as a weapons grade racer in the hands of it 's new owner . If I understood the link in Tim 's post #4 correctly then E2A has already raced at Le Mans thus braking the Griffiths family promise not to race the car , presumably the market value has been adjusted accordingly ? Hear Hear ! Leaving issues of conservation and the modifications required for present competition use aside , the argument that " it 's only original once " may be applied . I first saw this car , when owned by Guy Griffiths , at the 50th anniversary of " Jaguar " exhibition in 1972 at the Herbert Art Gallery and Museum in Coventry . I had only seen it in pics prior to that . I was surprised that the JDHT @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ car when it came up for sale although funding could or would have been a major issue . Either way , E2A is a national treasure and , without knowing the intent of its current guardian , I do hope that the car 's continued use is sympathetic to its long-term preservation but I ca n't help thinking that such originality may already have been compromised . Some of you will also recall that the Mercedes W196 which was presented , I believe , to Beaulieu for display in the museum , was sold by Lord Montagu a few years ago Hi Alan . I believe that this was one of the most controversial sales ever undertaken by a UK transport museum . The car was donated by Daimler-Benz to The National Motor Musuem Trust prior to the original opening of the National Motor Museum in 1972 . I think that the car sold may also have been the second one to be displayed and that the one ultimately disposed of may have been the Moss Aintree winner ( will stand correctd on that , obvioulsy ) . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ very short of funds and it probably represented the only way of meeting those immediate and future needs through selling an individual vehicle . Although an important car , it did not exactly conform to the museum 's stated collecting policy of " Motoring on the roads of Great Britain " . As a gift - and I think that the handover featured SM personally - it was for the NMMT to dispose of it as they saw fit . Am I correct in saying that it went to first to Joel Finn in the United States and then subsequently to a French industrialist ? I believe that figues of around $24 Million were bandied about for its latter sale value . In any event , I do n't think that the NMMT benefitted to anything like that amount for the original sale . No doubt , disposing of this asset a few years later would have resulted in a far higher figure but I think that the pressure was on to proceed at that time . Quite what Daimler-Benz thought about the whole thing I do n't think @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would have cleared their intentions with a company that had demonstrated support for the museum originally when other - UK based - elements of the motor industry did not . But , it was original and I personally saw it being driven on more than one occasion by the musuem 's original Chief Engineer , Louis Giron . If the owner of the Jag wants to race it what 's the problem ? He owns it , it 's his decision . Absolutely . But I concur with Artidesco 's view that it is also quite in order to allow comment from those on this Forum who share the view that there is a very fine line between preservation of originality and its loss through trying to make an object - through having to conform to prevailing regulations - into something less than it was . Whilst the loss of an ex-Riccardo Rosset Footwork might not be a supreme tragedy , the potential loss - or damage of any kind - of E2A would be just that . Whilst the loss of an ex-Riccardo Rosset @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ loss - or damage of any kind - of E2A would be just that . Apologies to any Riccardo Rosset fans out there ! We have enough gear stick knob specials as it is , would seem to be the view of most of us here on TNF , including XKD 558 mentioned elsewhere in TNF in the last couple of days , why ruin a rare car with an important works history when you can go and build a new one around any old burnt rusty lump of metal pulled out of a landfill site and claim it 's yet another version of XKD 558 ? It might surprise you to learn that valuable cars are raced quite regularly , and 99% of them go home at the end of the weekend with no damage It does not surprise me that 99 percent of historically significant race vehicles go home without ' further damage ' David , but I was thinking in terms of ' damage ' to race prepare E2A to make her fit for track use presumably multipoint safety harness , extinguisher , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ switch , change and or up rating suspension ? up rated disc brakes ? up rated brake hydraulics at least the hoses ? and such like , none of these things would have been fitted last time E2A was used by the factory or when handed over to the Griffiths family with a promise that E2A would not be raced again - a promise broken by someone who could easily have afforded to have had a new chassis knocked up out of a few historic D-Type remnants for a fraction of the price he paid for E2A . If I understood the link in Tim 's post #4 correctly then E2A has already raced at Le Mans thus braking the Griffiths family promise not to race the car ...

What an excellent point ! An historically significant race car does not have to be crashed to be altered from the original . The mere fact of race preparation , as stated so well by Arttidesco , has removed that car from the " in period " status that it had prior to prep . Here 's a link to a thread on the Retro Rides forum which features posts from someone involved with the running of E2A at this year @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the interest of reliability - who knows what else has been changed . The original totally unique all alloy 85 x 88mm 3 litre fuel injection engine was taken out of the car by Briggs Cunningham post Le Mans 1960 and replaced by a typical period iron block 3.8 35/40 wide angle head motor ( which featured the prototype block for the later lightweight E type , albeit in cast iron ) for its brief American campaign . BOTH THESE PERIOD ENGINES ARE RETAINED BY THE OWNER . Following Goodwood the Cunningham 3.8 unit will be reinstated . Therefore it now has an iron block 3.8 35/40 wide angle motor ( but not a hotrod version ) similar to the one fitted by Cunningham post Le Mans 1960 . As for what else has been changed the answer is virtually nothing , it even has the original front shock absorbers which of course have been refurbished for obvious safety reasons but they are the originals ( the rear units were completely worn out and not even safe for demonstration purposes ) . It also still has the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just as it was under Guy Griffiths ' aegis and I examined the body , chassis , suspension and steering parts et al at Le Mans , which under the very authentic 50 odd years of accumulated grime still have the original polished surfaces . There is no intention to ' modify ' and bastardise this piece of automotive history and it will not be subjected to regular historic racing . Additionally of course it will be driven by possibly the most sympathetic and safe pair of hands in racing , the amazingly smooth and experienced Tony Dron . Anybody concerned about this is very welcome to contact CKL Developments who will be happy to reassure those who think otherwise . I have the greatest respect for Tony Dron ; let 's hope the other drivers in E2A 's Goodwood event do as well . It 's a privately owned car and yes , of course , the owner is free to do what he wants with his property -- I am just appealing to his better instincts . Its a shame Jaguar so little valued the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it is also true that it would not have survived without private interest ( I raise a glass to that ) . It 's also a shame JHT did n't acquire it when its value had become obvious . However even there it might not have been safe . JHT is perfectly capable of stuffing historic cars : c.f. the Montlhery XK120 and , more recently , the origami job on the front of a Walkinshaw XJ-S . This is a time of the year when you 're better off keeping a foot in both camps ... How many times have we heard that a car is far too important to be kept hidden in a museum or , on the other hand , that the same car is too precious to be raced on a track ? Both are perfectly sensible points of view and it 's hard to tell where the separation line resides that might made people to plump for one side or the other . Let 's imagine for a minute that ( God forbid ! ) E2A got out of Goodwood with some bent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ under the loving hands of some restoration wizard to reappear few months later , looking better than ever . Do some new bits and a new coat of paint really diminish this car significance or what it achieved during its career ? Maybe they do , but still this is a racing car , and racing is what it 's meant to do , even at great risk for its originality . But then again , E2A is one of a kind . I ca n't really take sides on this debate because , when I 'm just about to embrace the " better safe than sorry " line , my mind races to Stirling Moss : he 's 80 , he fell down two floors through a lift shaft few months ago , and he ca n't wait to drive in anger again . He truly is one of a kind , and he 's not as easy as a car to repair ( even if the last events suggest otherwise ! ) , but he seems not to bother too much , as long as he can get @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' modify ' and bastardise this piece of automotive history and it will not be subjected to regular historic racing . Additionally of course it will be driven by possibly the most sympathetic and safe pair of hands in racing , the amazingly smooth and experienced Tony Dron . Thanks for your reassurances that E2A is not to be basterdised , however the Griffiths promise notwithstanding your description of her current condition would not encourage me to let E2A anywhere near a competitive event Paul . Do I take it that E2A is racing to different safety standards than those in the USA where vehicles of a similar age are fitted with roll hoops like the Collier Museums recently flipped Scarab ? Speaking of the flipped Scarab , however safe a pair of hands Tony Dron is , which I would agree he most certainly is , can we be assured that those competing against Tony at Goodwood will be of a similar standing ? Again referring to the recent events at Laguna Seca there were two tail end Charlie 's who could not make it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ opening lap before conspiring to cause the event that flipped John ' Safe Pair of Hands ' Moreton and his Scarab . Comments I have seen about that race , of cars being highly tuned vis motors and brakes allowing ' overly aggressive driving ' crazy qualifying races with cars off everywhere do not leave me feeling in anyway confident that a car such as E2A with a relatively ( compared to it 's older siblings ) insignificant racing pedigree and arguably far more significant story as a prototype used in the development of one of the more iconic motor cars of all time is worth risking in the millionaires playground of ' weapons grade ' historic race cars at Goodwood which has a reputation little , if any , better than the Laguna Seca event . What can possibly be gained from such folly , is E2A going to gain in value because it was driven either at the Le Mans Classic or Goodwood 50 years after it was raced properly in anger ? Is a car that has been relatively unharmed in the hands of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of a Stirling Moss type incident , for heavens sake his car did not even make it through one lap of qualifying at Lagunna Seca before being destroyed while parked off the racing line ? IMHO there is not one single argument why as significant and original a vehicle as E2A is , should be risked in this way and I sincerely hope the owner never comes to regret the day he decided to break the Griffiths promise and tradition not to race E2A , ' just because he could ' . I believe it was Winston Churchill who said ' with great wealth comes great responsibility ' not something I see being exercised here . I agree with Doug 's comment , wherever his tongue might have been in relation to his cheek There must be a thousand cars of greater historic importance racing around the wold today The opposing viewpoints in this thread can be broken down into two camps , the racing enthusiasts and the car enthusiasts On this occasion it is precisely because IMHO E2A is infinitely more significant as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all time , than as a racing car that I am vehemently in favour of the car returning immediately to it 's recklessly disregarded raced no more tradition and putting both feet in the car enthusiasts camp if it were any other D-Type I really would n't bother . The following is the opinion of Willem Oosthoek:As for additional points : - The tailfin is missing ! Why call it original ? The original Le Mans windshield is missing too . - in 1960 the car had a roll bar installed under its tail by Cunningham , a requirement by the SCCA and USAC . Ca n't it have one now if the original was removed ? - during the early 60s the factory used the car as a hack for numerous experiments , including Dunlop Maxaret anti-lock brakes , so I doubt it has the original brakes today . The Miller Club meeting at The Milwaukee Mile has no racing , just track sessions for the various groups of cars . Drive as fast as you want to , but do n't race . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ having a good time , probably scaring themselves just enough to have a good time , but that 's all . Howdy Jerry and Willem , if the roll hoop fitted by Cunningham for USAC and the SCCA is still fitted under it 's tail I 'd be overjoyed for Tony Drons sake though I seem to remember he is around 6 ' 2 " plus so I hope it is big enough for him . I have never argued E2A should be preserved as originally built or raced only that it should be preserved as it last left the Jaguar factory with the request that it never be raced , in other words as a development hack for the E-type . I am not sure even the most unsympathetic of Jaguar workers , owners , and or enthusiasts can argue that request should be ignored no matter who ' temporarily owns ' E2A at the moment . I do n't think Moss ' Porsche was " destroyed " . He said they will be taking it back to England for repairs ( cheaper than doing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in favour of the car returning immediately to it 's recklessly disregarded raced no more tradition and putting both feet in the car enthusiasts camp Should be " its " ... see blood pressure thread ! As for the subject of this thread , I guess the proof will be in the pudding ( so to speak ! ) If E2A gets wrecked , the car enthusiasts will say " I told you so ! " If not , well ... Personally , I 'd like to see it raced , but not wrecked . I felt bad when John Morton crashed at Laguna Seca . I was mostly concerned for him , but it was also certainly sad to know that one of my favorite race cars was so badly battered . Apparently the Scarab had a roll hoop fitted when it raced " in the day " . Right , Vince . The Scarabs , when raced by RAI , had roll hoops , but they were small and contained in the headrest . When the Meister Brauser Team bought the third chassis from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ roll hoop , as well as a rear nerf bar to protect the fuel tank , etc . When they bought the second chassis from Jeffords a couple months later , they also had this car fitted with those safety improvements.Tom I guess since I was still in nappies around the time the D-type and Scarab raced with roll hoops I can be forgiven for not knowing better , I just hope that once the current owner has finished having his fun with E2A on the track it can be returned to the same spec it left the Jaguar factory for the last time , and future owners do the right thing by the Jaguar factory and refrain from racing her . Is anyone up for a fancy dress ' Do n't wreck E2A ! ' demo outside the gates of Goodwood on Sunday the 19th ? The purpose of a racecar is to be raced , otherwise it is not a racecar . Now a significant part of motoring history as such should be treated well , and as all historic cars driven with respect meaning @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ different everytime it raced , plus if it was used as a test bed probably more so than others . Driving standards do seem to leave a lot to be desired though in historic racing though more through lack of skill than intent . Though in the UK they are too desperate , that is up to the stewards to pull them into line . And to be emphasised at drivers meetings The purpose of a racecar is to be raced , otherwise it is not a racecar.Now a significant part of motoring history as such should be treated well , and as all historic cars driven with respect meaning 9/10 racing . And really a factory racecar was probably different everytime it raced , plus if it was used as a test bed probably more so than others.Driving standards do seem to leave a lot to be desired though in historic racing though more through lack of skill than intent . Though in the UK they are too desperate , that is up to the stewards to pull them into line . And to be emphasised at drivers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Jaguar R&D beyond racing as a test bed for the legendary E-type so this car was put to non competition use and was handed over in such a condition to the Griffiths family with a promise not to race it . This subsequent R&D history and that now broken promise not to race are the only reasons I believe this particular chassis should never be raced again , though the driving standards argument is also particularly compelling in this instance . ..... finished having his fun with E2A on the track it can be returned to the same spec it left the Jaguar factory for the last time , But the whole point is that the original condition will have been destroyed . Time warp can not be recreated , nevertheless the owner has the right to do as he wishes . The one consolation is that in Tony Dron , the car has one of the finest historic race drivers in the world pedalling it.Roger Lund The following is the opinion of Willem Oosthoek:As for additional points : - The tailfin is missing ! @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is missing too . - in 1960 the car had a roll bar installed under its tail by Cunningham , a requirement by the SCCA and USAC . Ca n't it have one now if the original was removed ? - during the early 60s the factory used the car as a hack for numerous experiments , including Dunlop Maxaret anti-lock brakes , so I doubt it has the original brakes today . Yes E2A 's tail panelling and ' drivers ' hump were subject to changes for the reasons stated ( plus the 3.8 motor , shallower screen etc. ) and these can be seen today , nevertheless the car 's overall specification and condition remains period Jaguar as in when they were last using it , in this case for development and testing purposes . So it is as original as it can be in the circumstances . Notwithstanding this old machinery simply corrodes and crumbles if it is not used and ultimately you end up with a car , in this instance , that would be in effect an ornament capable only of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The same and more so apertains to old aeroplanes . In my personal opinion I would rather see it competing , albeit with due care , than have it sitting around deteriorating and gathering dust or being wheeled out occasionally to potter about so I suppose I belong in the racing enthusiasts club . Hi Alan . I believe that this was one of the most controversial sales ever undertaken by a UK transport museum . The car was donated by Daimler-Benz to The National Motor Musuem Trust prior to the original opening of the National Motor Museum in 1972 . I thinbk that the car sold may also have been the second one to be displayed and that the one ultimately disposed of may have been the Moss Aintree winner ( will stand correctd on that , obvioulsy ) . This all occurred at a time when the museum was very short of funds and it probably represented the only way of meeting those immediate and future needs through selling an individual vehicle . Although an important car , it did not exactly conform to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ roads of Great Britain " . As a gift - and I think that the handover featured SM personally - it was for the NMMT to dispose of it as they saw fit . Am I correct in saying that it went to first to Joel Finn in the United States and then subsequently to a French industrialist ? I believe that figues of around $24 Million were bandied about for its latter sale value . In any event , I do n't think that the NMMT benefitted to anything like that amount for the original sale . No doubt , disposing of this asset a few years later would have resulted in a far higher figure but I think that the pressure was on to proceed at that time . Quite what Daimler-Benz thought about the whole thing I do n't think has been disclosed but I am certain that the museum would have cleared their intentions with a company that had demonstrated support for the museum originally when other - UK based - elements of the motor industry did not . But , it was original @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one occasion by the musuem 's original Chief Engineer , Louis Giron . My recollection of the " scandal " was that the person the museum sold the W196 to almost immediately sold it for a rather larger amount ( about 10 times ) , given the museum was short of money they could have done with the extra 11.7 million which probably had a somewhat less noticeable effect on the Bamford 's bank balance ! Setton subsequently sold it to Friedhelm Loh for considerably less money ! But the whole point is that the original condition will have been destroyed . Time warp can not be recreated , nevertheless the owner has the right to do as he wishes . The one consolation is that in Tony Dron , the car has one of the finest historic race drivers in the world pedalling it.Roger Lund Tony Dron , Stefan Ziegler and Robert Newall raced this car in the Le Mans Classic in July of this year . What changes to the original condition will be made to the car between now and racing at Goodwood @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ part/panel/paint finish count will be reduced if it is crashed or , in the worst instance , burned out . Re original aircraft : the Shuttleworth Collection leads the way in displaying old aeroplanes . The trick is that they stick to demonstrations without wringing the things out . However , even they substantially wrecked their very original Bleriot when it was unwisely taken for a circuit , rather than being ' hopped ' along the length of the runway . What is the point of racing any old car ? I would submit that it is either to recreate the glory of that car when it was new or to prove that it had potential that was never realised . E2A in its own right did n't have a distinguished racing career , as a Jaguar enthusiast I find myself taking claims of fastest practice lap at Le Mans 1960 with a pinch of salt , perhaps the Ferraris and Maseratis were not pushing too hard ? Unrealised potential ? I suspect that Jaguar let it be raced that year as a sort of taster @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ see what 's coming next year ! " sort of thing . I think Jaguar knew all along that they needed a much greater step forward than E2A to be successful in racing again . You could argue that the success of " Lightweight " E Types at Goodwood demonstrates that unrealised potential far better than racing E2A ever could . I normally argue that old racing cars should be raced but in this instance , maybe , E2A is n't really an old racing car . Its significance in motoring history is something different . Now it would be interesting to see XJ13 race ..... only joking , honest ! On the contrary since Jaguar used E2A as a development car for the E-Type and that Jaguar had absolutely no intention of racing E2A further , else why seek a promise from the Griffiths ' not to race E2A ' as a condition of sale , absolutely nothing is gained from racing E2A what so ever . If anything was to be gained why not race her with the last engine E2A left the works @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with a weapons grade racing engine . My contention stands that nothing , absolutely nothing is gained from racing E2A , and it is nothing but sheer folly to be racing one of the few remaining D Types that has both halves of its original chassis still attached , that was part of an important development for the E-Type , and in that final developmental stage was never intended to race with assurances given by E2A 's original purchaser that it would not be raced . The current owner has broken one tradition lets pray nothing befalls the car before it is taken out of racing service again lest we have another D Type key fob special on our hands . Might have something to do with the technical hardware and preparation difference for the Lightweights/Replicas then and now - just a wild guess .... ; ) Absolutley right , Ralf . The Ltwt E types struggled in their day against the Ferraris in their intended arenas , just as the Zagato Astons did , other than as club racers . There has been comment previously @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ which grace the Revival . In period they struggled to make much over 300bhp , and then not always reliably IIRC . There have been 2 missed opportunities to preserve period correct lightweights in recent years . E2A was and is something quite different , successful or not . Prior to and subsequent to its sale , Messrs Dron and Nye have both written comprehensive accounts of the car and its provenance and condition , and its historical significance . Silhouette hotrod E types have nothing in common with it IMHO.Roger Lund E2A was and is something quite different , successful or not . Prior to and subsequent to its sale , Messrs Dron and Nye have both written comprehensive accounts of the car and its provenance and condition , and its historical significance .

Prior to and subsequent to its sale , Messrs Dron and Nye have both written comprehensive accounts of the car and its provenance and condition , and its historical significance . Silhouette hotrod E types have nothing in common with it IMHO.Roger Lund Still do n't understand why you say I was wrong ! You have said more or less what I was thinking . However I have to add that perhaps the level to which the Lightweights have been developed illustrates that there was potential there that was never seen in the ' 60 's . Bear in mind that Ferraris and Cobras could equally have been developed way beyond the level seen at the time @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Grids Merged I tried to find similar topics on this but they were in the archive so I thought I 'd start a new one . I see that Gary Anderson has added his ideas for qualifying to his column in Autosport today : On top of that , I would like to see reversed grids set by pre-race championship order . We would then have a true world champion who can drive a car in all situations and not just drive a fast car from the front . On top of that , I would like to see reversed grids set by pre-race championship order . We would then have a true world champion who can drive a car in all situations and not just drive a fast car from the front . Now I am a big fan of the current qualifying format and I do n't think it needs changing - all about speed and getting the lap in at the right time , but without the boring first half hour of pre-2003 . And none of this one-lap nonsense . Also I believe F1 should be about the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ race , so this post is more of a Devil 's Advocate idea . So , given that TV companies might well be complaining about declining viewership and less exciting racing , how would this be solved without wrecking the qualifying sessions ? I think I might have the answer : Basically make a ' grid ' in reverse championship order ( currently ROS - 22 , Ham , 21 , ... Mal 1 ) and then average these positions with the positions in the actual qualifying session . If two drivers have the same average , then the fastest one in the session gets grid preference . So in theory , if drivers qualify in the order of the championship , then the fastest driver will start on pole ( though this will never happen ! ) . Let 's say we do this for Montreal , and for argument 's sake the qualifying results are the same as the Bahrain GP ( I use that example as its the most similar circuit so far to Montreal ) , then we would have these results : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the ' pole ' would still go to the fastest driver in Quali , so it would just be the starting positions that are modified . Advantages ... - Mixed grids leading to exciting racing - Qualifying position still matters , unlike other reverse grid ideas . - Those knocked out in Q1 and Q2 still might rise up the grid . - The best drivers at overtaking as well as speed will win the championship , given that the highest grid slot the leader can start is 11th . - Seasons where there is one top team ( e.g. 13 and 14 ) will still see them having to overtake loads of drivers . - This does advantage drivers in the lower midfield of the championship , but if they get a big result then this will be reversed later . So over a season , it will work out quite fairly ( a major consideration for any qualifying system ! ) Disadvantages ... - Top drivers messing up in qualifying get a massive penalty ( e.g. ALO and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ follow until the last seconds . - Maybe the edge will be taken off getting ' pole ' as he wo n't be starting from the front of the grid if he 's in the top few drivers of the championship . Thoughts ? Am I a genius ? Or should I be taken off in a straightjacket ? As previously sated there 's only one word that can describe reverse grids , bullshit . Not knocking on you for starting the discussion though , as it can be healthy to hear some of the other forumers thoughts . My view on qualifing is that they should leave it as is , but remove the parc ferme rules . The only problem right now is that the fastest car in qualie is likely to be the fastest car in the race . If they remove the parc ferme , they still have to run the same engine , gearbox , tyres etc etc but should be allowed to change suspension setting , aero etc . That way a bad car in qualie can be worked @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ change the performance from qualie . Equally cars may chose the wrong settings and end up slower . They brought in parc ferme to get rid of qualie engines etc , but that is not a problem anymore so just get rid of it . Remember , each time a leading driver is starting from the back ( or vice-versa , a backmarker from the front ) it creates tremendous excitement . And this would guarantee that excitement each race . Personally , I would be thrilled if I knew that Hamilton would start 11-th in Canada this week . Would make for great racing . Formula 1 needs to stop the half-assed steps that inch it toward being a ' show ' . It should wholly embrace that is really , at it 's core , is now REALLY a show . The survival of the series depends on the quality of the show , on whether the races are exciting to watch -- and nothing else . This idea alone could replace all the DRS- and double-point-style gimmicks . With it , the racing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ say , ESPECIALLY without them ? Formula 1 needs to stop the half-assed steps that inch it toward being a ' show ' . It should wholly embrace that is really , at it 's core , is now REALLY a show . The survival of the series depends on the quality of the show , on whether the races are exciting to watch -- and nothing else . This idea alone could replace all the DRS- and double-point-style gimmicks . With it , the racing would be great even without them . Or should I say , ESPECIALLY without them ? This is exactly why it came to my mind - its a more pure and fair form of appealing to the new ' short attention span ' generation without all the DRS/double points crap . I 'd love to see the grid on reverse order of WDC , would be great to watch the top drivers fighting through a field of maldanados and kobis with Chilton fighting to keep p1 for more than a corner however it 's not a serious thought , it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . I must admit I was about to call BS on this thread , but actually your idea is quite funny . So I do n't think it 's worth anything for F1 ( and I 'm against any kind of reversed grid in F1 ) , but maybe some other championships could try this ( for instance , with multiple races in a weekend , instead of normal grid or reversed first 8 , this ) . Well it 's an interesting take on it , but I do n't think it 's really necessary . I would n't mind seeing it applied as an experiment , but really I 'd just rather have the guys line up in order of " practice " speeds . As an aside I 've always assumed " pole position " to mean the guy at the front of the grid , not the fastest qualifier . I think it is an interesting idea and definitely can be sold . I hope Bernie is listening and sooner than later we have mixed grids , one way or the other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ particular havent tried to turn this sport into a show . We got pirellis , slow cars on full tanks , delta driving , engine restrictions , no wet weather races and so on . Drivers themselves going on record saying they are hardly pushing . I wont be surprised if mixed grids are next on Bernie 's agenda coz the very survival of the sport is in question with boring races run tediously from start to finish . Time for a shakeup methinks , bring in these mixed grids and separate the men from the boys . I 'd be lying if I said I did n't think that would be spectacularly entertaining , but it would also be massively frustrating seeing championship contenders retiring more often in first corner incidents . 6 races so far this year and the only driver taken out in a first corner incident was Massa when Kobayashi punted him out in AUS . First corner incidents are rare these days , so I wont worry too much about them . I say go back to 4 practice sessions ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the grid is set by the individual drivers single best lap in any of the 4 sessions . The race is the event , not qualifying . These days , qualifying is just another way to make money by selling advertising . That is the main reason I doubt we 'll see grids based on reverse championship order . How much money will be lost by not airing qualifying ? Bernie ca n't charge the broadcasters as much . Teams could n't get as much from sponsors ( cutting potential TV time by 1/3 ) . It would cost F1 hundreds of million dollars in revenue to make that switch . Unless they can think of a way to televise it , it is an idea that is DOA . I would n't mind a format like this for a non-championship F1 race ( they used to have those in the olden days , you know ) , but never , ever , ever , EVER for races counting for the championship . Which is one of the reasons why there should be non-GP races . So @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ adopting it in races . With the calendar easily at or above 18 races per year , pick one out ( whichever pays for it - say Abu Dhabi - or whichever is politically important but needs some incentive to remain - say Nuburgring or Hockenheim ) and let hell break lose . No ? Lewis starting behind JB or Alonso behind Massa every race with a host of crazy and slow drivers infront ? It would be carnage and totally rediculous but incredible to watch all the same It would be ridiculous only . Qualify the car as high up the grid as possible and start from that position , as they do now . There is no way that should be changed . We have enough nonsensical stuff happening in F1 as it is . And based on this season , Hamilton and Rosberg could start in the pitlane and they 'd probably still finish 1 and 2 . Also , if we reverse the grid as they do in GP2 , are drivers not just going to slow down in qualifying to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the back end of the grid ? Or are we talking here about F1 having two races over the weekend and doing what GP2 currently does ( which I also think is a joke ) ? Reversed grids would be yet another nail in the dumping-down coffin F1 is trying to become . Just let the racers race , make the drivers the most important part of the car in order for us to see a battle for the World Drivers Championship . The boat on that have sailed a long time ago , if it even really ever existed , the comment about the powers to be ignoring the fans complaints is more saying than the dreadful idea of once more spicing somethink which should never be spiced . Also , if we reverse the grid as they do in GP2 , are drivers not just going to slow down in qualifying to avoid being rewarded for their hard work with a slot at the back end of the grid ? Or are we talking here about F1 having two races over the weekend and doing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a joke ) ? Thats the beauty of this system ; to get the best possible result you still need to be fastest . The only way you can guarantee yourself to be high up would be to be in a fast car and purposefully retire from a couple of races , which would be ridiculous . All the other reverse grids idea mean that being slow could be of benefit , yet this one totally negates that . A Caterham will never be on the front row in this format , and any lower down driver who does a great quali session ( e.g. Gutierrez in this example ) is rewarded with a fantastic grid slot . It will help drivers at the lower end of the grid get noticed . Also , its not entirely random , as Nico and Lewis are still next to each other for the race . Actuallty , I posted it as a slightly mad idea but now I 'm warming to it ... Oh , and for it to work the first race of the season @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ system kicks in after the second race . British short oval racing ( stock cars and hot rods ) have always used reverse grids with out any ill-effects other than providing the paying fans with a some proper racing . The top drivers seem to manage to get through and win races , even though they are often only 20 or so laps of a 440 yard oval . I would n't mind a format like this for a non-championship F1 race ( they used to have those in the olden days , you know ) , but never , ever , ever , EVER for races counting for the championship . This is what I was going to say . Would be good if maybe they had non-championship races mid-season and after the final championship race , just ' for fun ' , where they could try reverse grids and maybe other crazy formats like , oh I do n't know , put the drivers into different cars . Yeah I know , that will NEVER happen . Reverse grid ... No . Only changes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have a certain number of kilo of weights added to represent the number of points gained by the said drivers during the previous race . That , and change most of the events into two day timetable . Simply an open two hours of practice Saturday morning and the hour of qualifying on Saturday afternoon . Reverse grids are used by feeder series to shake things up a bit and really to give drivers a bit more of a challenge . Series like F3 are designed as series for upcoming drivers so it is to their benefit to learn to start from further back . It can also be used in series like the BTCC where you have multiple races on a single weekend . For a single race series like F1 then it is completely inappropriate , the fastest car should start first . Reverse grid ... No . Only changes I would make to qualifying at the moment would be have a certain number of kilo of weights added to represent the number of points gained by the said drivers during the previous race . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ day timetable . Simply an open two hours of practice Saturday morning and the hour of qualifying on Saturday afternoon . Nope . Both reverse grids and success ballasts are dumb ideas for any kind of racing . You should n't punish a team/driver for being successful . They do n't make Usain Bolt run 50m more because he 's the fastest runner in the world .... This is an interesting idea actually . I kinda expected most of the people would n't like it and some of them using words like " bullshit " , but nevermind . I 'm not a racing conservative and I like new concepts and thinking of them even if I know they do n't have much , if any chance , to be introduced . And this is one of the most interesting things I 've read for a long time . Much more than those neverending " more powerful engines " , " less restrictions " , " bring back V10 " , " bring back refuelling " etc . I see F1 is becoming less @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's not new regulations , quiet and less powerful engines , new circuits with large tarmac run-offs , ugly cars , two-coumpound rule , fuel saving , degrading tyres , double points , cost cutting etc. that makes my feeling . The problem is lying elsewhere and it 's much harder to get realised and even harder to get sorted out . It 's about incredible level of professionalism . Drivers and teams are getting better and better with being prepared for every possible scenario . Drivers run around the circuit houndreds of times in simulators if they need to iron out every little issue with their driving . Teams are that much advanced on an engineering side that they are capable of getting very much performance out of the car without compromising reliability . And with a help of more and more developed computers and software , they are prepared for pretty much everything , so they chose a strategy very close to optimum most of the time and set-up is that close to the optimum most of the time that performance does n't change that much depending on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that one team ca n't gain too much ground with a single package of big upgrades . F1 is becoming too predictable . Too little surprising . It just does n't give the same amount of uncertainty as it used to and that was the reason I started following this sport . Also unfair share of TV money and too big costs that make pecking order stale contribute to this , but that 's another matter . I find your idea about reversing grid this way very interesting . The outcome of the racing weekend would become much more unpredictable , which is what I need to keep my passion for F1 . That 's even better than the normal reverse grid based on championship standings idea , because it gives you a reason to turn the TV on on Saturday and a starting grid would be changing much more from race to race , making things even more interesting . I also like the thing that it 's sophisticated , because the more sophisticated the sport is , the more I enjoy it . I 'm not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sure that I WOULD LIKE to see it . The thing that I would add is that the rule does n't apply to Monaco GP . I know it 's never going to happen , but thank you for creating this thread . Even if other call this a bullshit or say it has no place in F1 , it gives me something to fantasize about for a next couple of days . I need this because I 'm kinda tired of reality . They do n't make Usain Bolt run 50m more because he 's the fastest runner in the world .... No . They make him run 100m . They make everyone in that event run 100m . But in F1 they make the teams at the back run several hundred metres more by having them start at the back . Reverse grids are bullshit . It 's not up to the FIA to arbitrarily handicap successful drivers and teams . It 's up to the teams doing a poor job to step it up or lose . I could guarantee @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Red Bull 's budget . The proof of this is where Red Bull were when they had the Stewart budget . Or Mercedes with the Mercedes budget compared to where they were with the Tyrrell budget . Marussia being behind Red Bull is not because they 're doing a poor job . They 're doing a bloody brilliant job . They 're a couple of seconds behind - call it 5% - despite having a tenth of the budget . It 's as if West Brom were 4 points behind Man City rather than 40 . Starting the cars in spending order - which is more or less what we have now - is just as arbitrary as reverse championship order . No . They make him run 100m . They make everyone in that event run 100m . But in F1 they make the teams at the back run several hundred metres more by having them start at the back . ... Starting the cars in spending order - which is more or less what we have now - is just as arbitrary as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has to go an extra 160m , over a race distance of 305km . That is the equivalent of running an extra 5cm in the 100m . In the 100m , that would make a time difference of .001s , which is an order of magnitude smaller than the timing accuracy . In other words , insignificant . I could counter with the Marathon , in which runners in back can lose minutes before they even cross the line . Of course the reason that they line up in a grid is that there is n't room to put all the cars equidistant from the first turn , which would be the most fair way . So lets assume that you let every driver do a single lap on their own , we 'll call it the 0th lap of the race . Every driver starts and finishes the lap from the same point , so after all the drivers have done their 0th lap , you can see the order , and time gaps , at the start of the 1st lap . So then you can put @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 0th lap , and then they are lined up as if they all started from the same place . Obviously , qualifying is quite different because you get multiple chances to do your 0th lap . You also start a fixed distance behind the car ahead of you , instead of the actual time gap . Arbitrary , but at least fitting with sporting principles . No . They make him run 100m . They make everyone in that event run 100m . But in F1 they make the teams at the back run several hundred metres more by having them start at the back . When you find me a modern grand prix circuit that is able to accomodate a 24-wide start , this argument will make sense . In real proper sports merit should be awarded , not handicapped . Also , any reverse grids will completely spoil the thrill , excitement and pure competition of grand prix Saturdays . Even this convoluted idea . I 'm not allergic to straying away from tradition when it 's necessary and a real evolution , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dubious , Formula 1 should take pride on its history and traditions and keep it as it bloody is . Qualifying was already messed around enough with the knockout system , which did improve it , it does n't need any more radical nonsense . Not at Monaco , please . It would be a crashfest of epic proportions . There aside , I 'd be willing to try it for a year or two if they scrapped drs . Much cleverer idea than the pure reverse grid , imo . I say good effort to the op . Maybe if the title had already been mathematically wrapped up there could be merit in doing a reverse grid , but many other positions further down the leader board would be contestable . Almost no one likes the double points final race but I see more of a solution from this thread . Remove Saturday qualifying from AbuDhabi GP and hold a one hour sprint race on Saturday afternoon starting with reverse WC points position order in a single file rolling start . Award a normal full set of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ GP on Sunday but with normal grid starting arranged in a top down positional |

You know those elaborate opening posts ahead of race weekend that both help build excitement and serve as a useful place for stories ahead of the race ? Well , they take time and effort and so what tends to happen is we get two people independently working on them and then one of them is beaten to the punch . Or no-one bothers because they fear that happening . This is a shame ! funny , clever opening posts are highly welcome and so I 've come up with this idea which is you can bag a race weekend and you then commit to writing a decent opening post . ( If there was a general F1 season thread we 'd do this sign-up stuff in there , but there 's not ) I suggest we do them a race at a time so people have a clear idea of the amount of time they 're going to be able to put in .

At least with IndyCar posts , that 's going to be the thread for all the weekend , practice , quali and race . But I mean , you could spend a couple of hours writing a good opening post for an F1 race , and then it 'd be lost beneath the masses of dedicated threads that for some reason we need for practice and qualifying and the race itself .

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('we have been cheated out of spending our retirement together'). It also allows for a movement/extraction interpretation, where the action of cheating caused the subject to be deprived of the opportunity to spend retirement together.

Part Nazi satire , part cockeyed children 's fable , Jojo Rabbit does n't lack for ambition or sincerity of purpose -- which only makes it more disappointing that the film proves to be so meagre . Telling the story of a Nazi Youth in the waning days of World War II whose imaginary best friend is Adolf Hitler , writer-director-star Taika Waititi boldly tries to merge his gift for wry absurdism with a sentimental humanism that seeks to address our perilous political moment . But rather than being bracing or dangerous , this comedy ends up feeling a little too safe , a little too scattered , and a little too inconsequential . Although set during one of history 's darkest periods , it seems afraid to stare into that void . This satire 's good intentions are insufficient in the face of real-world issues Opening in the US on October 18 -- a UK release is scheduled for early next year -- this Fox Searchlight offering will benefit from A-list names such as Scarlett Johansson and Sam Rockwell , not to mention endless comparisons to Life Is Beautiful , which was also a comedy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Waititi 's visibility has risen since directing Thor : Ragnarok , but Jojo Rabbit seems destined to be an art-house player unless it can garner some awards consideration . Jojo ( Roman Griffin Davis ) lives with his mother Rosie ( Johansson ) in 1940s Germany , enamoured of Hitler and excited to become a Nazi . In fact , Jojo has imaginary conversations with the Fuhrer ( Waititi ) , who 's like a playmate to the otherwise lovable 10-year-old . But once the boy realises that Elsa ( Thomasin McKenzie ) , a teenage Jew , is hiding in the walls of his home , he must decide whether to turn her in . Those familiar with Waititi 's work could accurately describe Jojo Rabbit ( based on the Christine Leunens book Caging Skies ) as a mixture of the deadpan silliness of What We Do In The Shadows ( which he co-directed ) and the family-friendly delight of Hunt For The Wilderpeople . Of course , the horror of the Third Reich hangs over this satire , and Waititi ( who wrote the screenplay ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us buffoonish characters ( such as Rockwell 's incompetent Captain Klenzendorf ) who are hate-filled morons . Unfortunately , these targets are n't very well-drawn -- they 're toothless monsters that fail to convey the regime 's true evil . Waititi has better luck playing an imaginary Hitler who 's painfully insecure and a bit dopey . To be sure , his Fuhrer is just a variation on his roles in What We Do In The Shadows and Ragnarok -- he 's very good at depicting fools -- but there 's a decent amount of humour in the performance . Not enough , however : The novelty of a goofy Hitler expires long before the character stops making occasional appearances in the movie . What 's strongest in Jojo Rabbit is the growing relationship between Jojo and Elsa , as he goes from despising her to becoming her friend . It 's a predictable narrative arc , but the two young actors have a palpable warmth . McKenzie , superb in Leave No Trace , ably plays a scared young woman who , nonetheless , possesses a wit @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their interactions . Much of the film 's first half goes for laughs , but Waititi does n't seem fully confident with this volatile material , and so the humour rarely lands . ( The movie 's best comedic sequence involves Stephen Merchant 's studious Gestapo agent , who gets a real kick out of being despicable . ) Later on , the film aims for more emotional terrain , doling out some shocking twists and sappy moments . Without calling attention to the fact , the narrative is clearly commenting on our times , as fascism and alt-right groups gain prominence across the globe . But this satire 's good intentions are insufficient in the face of those real-world issues -- the comedy feels neither liberating nor inspiring . Like Life Is Beautiful before it , Jojo Rabbit ultimately argues that love can conquer hate . It 's a nice thought , but not entirely convincing -- let alone very funny .

10 September , 2019 SOURCE : Flight International BY : Kate Sarsfield London Lithuanian start-up Jetcopter is seeking investment of around $60 million to bring to market a six-seat vertical take-off and landing ( VTOL ) aircraft , which it describes as a low-cost alternative to medium-class rotary- and fixed-wing types . Called the Jetcopter , it will be powered by two 665shp ( 495kW ) all-aluminium , twin-turbocharged automotive engines . These will drive a tail-mounted ducted fan for forward flight and a pair of centrifugal counter-rotating fans -- located above the fuselage -- designed to draw air into the system , before it is blown out of swivelling wing-tip ducts to provide vertical lift . Jetcopter The aircraft also has an emergency parachute " for an extra layer of safety " . Range of around 540nm ( 1,000km ) is projected , along with a top speed of 160kt ( 300km/h ) . A hybrid-electric version is also proposed , with four 335shp ( 250kW ) electric motors , powered by a lithium-ion battery pack , replacing the automotive engines @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Headquartered in Siauliai , in central Lithuania , Jetcopter is the brainchild of engineer Donatas Skulskis . He also the founder and chief executive of automotive parts supplier PB Group , which has funded the project to date . His experience in this sector persuaded Skulskis to use a converted auto engine rather than a traditional aircraft powerplant . " Light and powerful automotive piston engines are widely available and so much cheaper to operate , purchase and maintain than aero engines , " Skulskis says . The result is also a more attractive price tag for the carbonfibre Jetcopter of around $600,000 . It is " significantly cheaper than similar-size helicopters , fixed-wing aircraft and other in-development VTOL designs " , he says . The company tested several designs before settling on the current configuration . " We evaluated many small-scale versions of the Jetcopter with four , three , two and even one-rotor layouts , and this is the optimum design , " says Skulskis . The platform is aimed at several markets , including air ambulance , cargo and passenger @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " With its ability to transport up to five passengers at once , the Jetcopter is an ideal vehicle to help move people around congested cities . There is certainly no shortage of demand , " Skulskis adds . Jetcopter is initially seeking $6 million to build the first prototype and launch the flight-test campaign . " We are in talks with potential investors , " says Skulskis . " Once we have the money , we can build the aircraft quickly and start flying . The rest of the funding should follow once the programme has reached significant development milestones. " |

Some managers dread the international break as much as club supporting fans . Just as the season was getting into its rhythm and the players are off around the world to represent their teams . Jose Mourinho hit out at ' unprofessional ' national teams for adding to United 's injury woes this time last year and while injuries are a problem for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer this time around the international break might have brought about another headache for the United manager . Paul Pogba , Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Jesse Lingard all pulled out of representing their countries . The first two through injury and the latter with an illness . They 've all been pictured reporting back to United 's training ground ahead of the clash against Leicester but it remains to be seen whether they will be available .

United have been shaky at the back at the start of this season , only keeping one clean sheet on the opening day against Chelsea and while the international break could have been an opportunity for respite and a confidence boost it does n't appear to have worked like that . Victor Lindelof has , by his own high standards , had a below par start to the season . He was at fault for goals against both Crystal Palace and Southampton and it appears he has taken his form with him on international duty . The Swede has been playing like somebody lacking confidence and another bad performance that he ca n't explain is n't going to help to boost it . Then there 's Harry Maguire . The centre back has looked solid since signing for United but found himself trending for all the wrong reasons when he played for England in their win against Kosovo on Tuesday night . His record-breaking price tag is n't his fault but it 's going to be a stick he 's beaten with online every time he makes a mistake . The former Leicester man has been solid enough for United in their opening four games of the season but Solskjaer needs to take him onto another level if United are going to start keeping consecutive clean sheets . Saturday will bring the added pressure of playing against his former side . The build up will all be focused around the 26-year-old and if the centre back is going to be a big success at Old Trafford then these are the types of games , where the pressure is on , where he really needs to perform . While Maguire and Lindelof have had their shaky moments , which wo n't have gone unnoticed by Solskjaer , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to give him a headache . Marcos Rojo played for Argentina on Tuesday night but has had any minutes for United so far this campaign and while Axel Tuanzebe has been working hard in the gym his last minutes came on the pre-season tour . Then there 's Phil Jones who has yet to even make the bench so far this term . Add to Solskjaer 's centre back dilemma , the potential absence of Shaw and Wan-Bissaka through injury and the Norwegian has a bit of a headache in defence . The whole squad will finally be back together on Thursday which gives him two training sessions to work out a strategy that 's going to help United to their second clean sheet of the season . |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It involves a transitive verb 'getting' with an NP object 'great mileage', but it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of using video games' does not function as a VP2[-ing] predicate with the NP object as a causee.

Wayback to the future . Article by Oli Welsh , Editor Updated on 4 September 2019 The first ever post on Eurogamer was made 20 years ago today , on 4th September , 1999 . To celebrate our 20th anniversary , we 've picked 20 articles - well actually , 21 , including that first post - one for each year we 've been running . Some are serious , some are silly , some are a bit embarrassing to us , some we 're proud of , and some are just an interesting record of the times we 've lived through . The best part is that our wonderful tech team has recreated the articles ' original appearance on the site , so you can see them the way they were at the time and browse through all the old versions of Eurogamer . The only major change to the layout is that pagination has been removed for an easier reading experience . Click through the links below and glory in those old logos . Cut us @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ orange ? Our first post was more than a little functional . We only remembered to introduce ourselves properly five minutes later . Yuck , that capital G in the name - and what 's going on to the left of the logo ? Bald man , scan lines , headset mic , scope - it 's as if the reader is about to be fragged with a blast of pure gaming information . So edgy . You ca n't get more Y2K than that . This version of the site was n't very long-lived , but going by the calls we still get for a night mode , some people would n't mind a return to the colour scheme . It is bizarre , now , to reflect that Eurogamer was once a sort of early prototype of an esports site . The site started as an offshoot of founders the Loman brothers ' EuroQuake and EuroLAN competitive gaming events , and reported on them , as here . Anthropologists will one day pore over this photographic record of pallid young men sitting in a room full @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more professional now - only the logo remains from the first version - and has many lovely period touches , such as a ' home ' link illustrated by a picture of a house , a DVD review section and a house ad proudly alerting us to a basic mobile phone version : " Eurogamer on WAP - www.wapgamer.net " . Tom Bramwell joined Eurogamer from a GTA fansite in 2000 , at the tender age of 16 , and would end up spending 14 years working on the site , rising to the position of editor after just seven of them . He learned his craft on the job . Here 's a young Tom relishing ( despite what he says ) the task of getting stuck into a game that would define so much of the next two decades . Tom will probably wince at this now , and it 's true that our style of criticism has evolved quite a lot since , but the directness and enthusiasm , the sense of shared passion with the reader , are bursting off the page . Even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ famous - or should that be notorious ? - review in Eurogamer 's history . Bungie 's universally lauded Xbox launch title earned a merely respectable 8/10 from then editor John Bye - under his pen name Gestalt - and so began at least a decade of " Better than Halo ? " comments under reviews of any other game that scored higher . You mocked us for it , and most of the people who 've worked on the site since might agree , but actually John 's review holds up pretty well - and was n't an uncommon opinion among people , as he put it , " weaned on PC shooters " . New site , new logo , and perhaps our first stab at a distinctive visual identity . A surprisingly orange visual identity . There are still some here ( hi Craig ) who mourn the loss of this grey-and-tangerine look , before we went all in on Eurogamer Blue . Meanwhile , here 's a news post from Martin Taylor - who at some point shifted from writing to designing the site , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ blue - on what would probably turn out to be one of the most momentous events for the games industry in the last two decades . An early test of our church-and-state declaration of editorial independence from advertising sales would come with this typically forthright and exhaustive review from then editor , and reviews machine , Kristan Reed . Let 's just say that Atari did n't like it very much and leave it at that . We 've dealt with the same situation many , many times since , and while it 's never fun , it is also the bedrock of trust that the site 's reputation is built on . As founder Rupert Loman once said , It 's the cost of doing business . But it has to be said that it 's more rare these days ; publishers have mostly learned , the hard way , that there 's no way to control opinion on the internet . The blue appears ! I think this version of the site is what Eurogamer will always look like in my head , perhaps because this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ joined in 2008 . I still have a great fondness for the tiny icons of all the different platforms in the left rail . Fun fact : we moved away from this shade of blue in the last redesign , not only to save our eyes , but in part because it literally can not be reproduced in print . If that is n't a statement of intent , I do n't know what is . Also a statement of intent : this extraordinary three-reviews-in-one piece from Kieron Gillen , one of a handful of ex-PC Gamer writers recruited by Kristan who would go on to found Rock Paper Shotgun . It 's a bit of a stunt , but it makes its point : you can trace our current , more subjective reviewing style back to pieces like this . Oh , boy . Here 's a line that would come back to haunt us . I note that the author of this article has chosen anonymity and I wo n't betray that . Let 's just say that they were a little inexperienced and got carried away @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ones to get headspun by Ken Kuturagi 's bewildering beast of a console : Edge ran almost exactly the same line , and got in just as much trouble for it . Now to be quite honest , this one 's a bit of a cheat - this is a cross-post from GamesIndustry.biz , where the story originated , which is something we used to do back then . Be that as it may , the inimitable Ellie Gibson , who was taking a holiday from Eurogamer to work on GI at the time , reckons this is her finest headline ever . I 'll go one further : I think it might be the single greatest headline ever to grace the site . Also , side note , this story gives you a spicy taste of the last days of the old school of decadent video games PR , before it all burned to the ground . This may be only the second most famous 8/10 in the history of the site , but I believe it still holds the record for most comments : 2299 . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . I had recently joined the site and naively thought that people were kind of over Metal Gear , neglecting to notice that this was one of the longest-awaited and most-trumpeted PS3 exclusives . For a day or two I was at the epicentre of the fanboy wars . For the record , I stand by everything except that final kiss-off , which I concede is a bit much . Ellie Gibson was perhaps best known for her scabrously funny reviews of substandard shovelware , but she was also a - shall we say one-of-a-kind ? - interviewer . She took cheekiness to the level of performance art . Sometimes she went too far ; there exists one interview with a well-known industry executive that , by mutual consent , will never see the light of day . But with a game subject who could go toe-to-toe with her , such as Rein here , the results could rip the stuffy PR veneer off the industry and show you the humans beneath - as well as making you laugh like a drain . Possibly the most entertaining feature @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ American writer and editor who we were lucky enough to work with for a while . Achievements were a new-ish thing then , and John took the advice of some pro achievement hunters to see how many Gamerpoints he could earn in 24 hours , exposing how they could break your enjoyment of video games in the process . It 's a gaming Heart of Darkness . Another writer we 're lucky to have been associated with for a long time is Simon Parkin , now a famous investigative journalist with a Hollywood movie deal for his second book . You would often find Simon reviewing Japanese RPGs , indie games and blockbusters on the site , but he also did a few memorable expos ? s for us , including this tale about the unlucky hacker who stumbled on Half-Life 2 's source code before it was released . New site klaxon ! EG11 , as we called it , was a long time coming , and it lasted a long time too - almost 7 years . Any colour that is n't grey or Eurogamer blue @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ design of the site . We 'd been around long enough to be taken seriously , we were saying . In being taken seriously , it certainly helped that Christian Donlan had joined the staff , a soulful writer who used LA Noire to explore his family history with his dad in this memorable piece . Actually , maybe this is the best headline on Eurogamer . Then editor Tom Bramwell mercilessly lanced Microsoft 's hapless Xbox One launch strategy in this clarion call of an editorial - weeks after he had run rings round a discombobulated Phil Harrison in an interview at the reveal event for the console . No-one was more tireless in speaking for players ' interests than Tom . It was definitely one of the games of our lifetime - one of the most hotly-debated , too . BioShock had a troubled development , though , detailed here by Simon Parkin in an early example of a now depressingly familiar genre - the expos ? of unhealthy working practices in the games industry . Another great example , from last year , is Tom @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Dead Redemption 2 . Bertie Purchese is the longest-serving member of the Eurogamer still standing ; a schoolfriend of founder Rupert Loman who has blossomed into one of our most distinctive voices . Bertie has wide-eyed enthusiasm to spare and also , for some reason , deep connections in the Polish games industry , which served us well when The Witcher 3 became a defining game of the current generation . This is a lovely eyewitness account of the moment a genuine phenomenon was born . Is this the longest article we 've ever published ? Quite possibly , and I still would n't cut a word of it . Of course , Eurogamer 's connection to the UK games industry has always been particularly important to us , and we 've long prided ourselves on our in-depth reporting on UK studios . We could hardly let the closure of one of the most legendary go unmarked , and Wesley Yin-Poole delivered this astonishingly comprehensive warts-and-all tale . Since 2007 , Eurogamer 's secret weapon has been the veteran games journalist Richard Leadbetter and his Digital Foundry @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ only authority on games technology worth its salt . We 're very lucky : you simply can not get this reporting anywhere else . Microsoft understands that , which is why it selected Rich for an opportunity you simply never get : a genuinely world exclusive new console reveal , for what would be Xbox One X. And we finally arrive at the current version of the website . A new generation of writers is getting great mileage out of using video games as a lens to explore their personal histories . It 's easy to over-indulge or over-share with this sort of thing , but here 's one of our newer team members , Chris Tapsell , knocking it out of the park with this story of teen hopes of football stardom and the strange , unknowable mechanics of a sports strategy game . It 's scarcely believable that it was less than a year ago that we hired Emma Kent straight out of our summer internship programme ; she already feels like an integral part of the site . This piece , written from an E3 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ kind of writing about games we strive for in 2019 : acute , plugged into the context of the wider world , but fair and considered , not giving in to knee-jerk reactions . These are contentious times , but articles like this help us navigate them . PS : I do n't want to let this article go without a mention of Martin Robinson . Our features and reviews editor is a mercurial polymath who ca n't be summed up in a single piece , although regulars will surely join me in saluting his extraordinary live blogs that eclipse even Ellie 's for irreverent surrealism . Here 's just one recent , unforgettable example . Sometimes we include links to online retail stores . If you click on one and make a purchase we may receive a small commission .

There will be little love lost when Iain Conn , the chief executive officer ( CEO ) of Centrica , leaves the business next year . All CEOs aim to leave a business in a better state than they found it , but there are more questions being asked about the company 's future as he departs than when he arrived . After taking over at the start of 2015 , Conn was quick to highlight that he had taken over at a challenging time for the business and that Centrica , home to the UK 's largest energy supplier British Gas , needed to change its strategy . He said the last year had been ' very difficult ' and that falls in oil and gas prices had exacerbated the issue , and that the board had decided @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Four-and-a-half years later , upon the release of Centrica 's interim results for the first half ( H1 ) of 2019 , investors are feeling a severe case of d ? j ? vu . The period was ' exceptionally challenging ' , once again in part to low gas prices . It announced the purse-strings are to be tightened further and more jobs will be cut . Conn even unveiled one last dividend cut as he announced he would be leaving after the company 's 2020 annual general meeting ( AGM ) . The baton was not in good shape when it was handed to Conn , but it is in even worse condition as he prepares to pass it on . Centrica shares have lost 74% since Conn took charge , seeing the company 's value plunge from nearly ? 20 billion to below ? 5 billion . That has made it the second smallest constituent of the FTSE 100 ( behind only Marks & Spencer ) and vulnerable to relegation . Source : IG chart @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ leave little to smile about Centrica 's H1 results were hard to swallow no matter which way you looked at them . Revenue was down and the company swung to a large pre-tax loss . Operating cash flow -- which underpins the dividend -- plunged 80% , prompting a larger-than-expected 58% cut to the interim pay-out and a decision to scrap its scrip dividend programme . Net debt is also starting to climb again after being reduced significantly over recent years , up 17% over the past year . 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 H1 2018 H2 2018 Revenue 29,408 27,971 27,102 28,023 29,686 12,009 11,568 Gross profit 3,231 4,535 5,449 4,195 4,053 2,256 1,428 Operating profit ( loss ) -1,137 -857 2,486 486 987 415 -569 Earnings per share ( pence ) ( 20.2 ) ( 14.9 ) 31 6 3.2 4.2 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1,217 2,197 2,396 1,840 1,934 876 177 Dividend 13.5 12 12 12 12 3.6 1.5 Net debt 5,196 4,747 3,473 2,596 2,656 2,886 3,376 British Gas has long been the dominate player in the UK energy supply market and while it is still the largest supplier it has lost considerable ground since late 2013 . For years , UK households only had six energy companies to choose from : British Gas , SSE , EDF Energy , E.ON , nPower and Scottish Power , collectively known as the ' Big Six ' . But a flurry of new entrants have disrupted the industry since regulators opened up the market . The Big Six held almost 100% of the market at the start of 2013 but today they hold just 72% , with newer rivals having gobbled up 28% . Although many smaller suppliers have collapsed , those that have found success tend @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , able to undercut on price and provide a better service , something the Big Six have not been renowned for . All the Big Six have succumbed to the pressure of fresh competition but some have proven far more resilient than others . ScottishPower 's share has slipped to 10% from 11% over the last five years while EDF has dipped to 11% from 13% . The others have ceded far more , with SSE 's share dropping to 13% from 19% , E.ON down to 12% from 17% and nPower 's share has fallen to just 8% from 14% . British Gas , having held 25% of the market , has been one of the largest causalities with its share standing at 19% today . The company believes it has stemmed the flow after several years , stating that there was a ' spike in churn ' during March and April this year and that it had gained customers in May and June . Source : Ofgem Source : Ofgem The price cap is reviewed every six months and the latest one that has just been set by regulator Ofgem will come into force at the start of October , when the cap for the 11 million households on default or standard variable tariffs will reduce by 6% , or ? 75 , following a fall in wholesale prices that started in February . Centrica said earlier this year that it expected to take a ? 300 million hit from the price cap in 2019 , stating it booked ? 70 million of one-off costs in the first quarter ( Q1 ) of 2019 . The company , along with its peers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it does not believe it is a ' sustainable solution for the market ' . The price cap , twinned with fewer customers , has hit Centrica 's energy supply business hard . Adjusted operating profit from the UK dropped 73% in the H1 of the year as it lost 178,000 customers . Centrica generates power through interests in oil and gas and nuclear projects . Its oil and gas business was spun-off as an independent company in late 2017 , when it combined its exploration and production business with that of Bayerngas Norge AS . Centrica owns 69% of the company with the rest owned by former Bayerngas Norge shareholders . The UK natural gas NBP price has been in freefall for the past year . Prices had moved above 75p per therm in October 2018 to hit its highest level since the financial crash , but dropped to bottom-out at just over 26p at the start of July 2019 , according to energy consultants ERCE . Prices have recovered somewhat since to trade closer to 30p , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Centrica said adjusted operating profit from its production business was down 48% in the H1 of the year because of lower gas prices , as well as incurring the costs of unsuccessful drilling in the Greater Warwick Area , which Spirit owns 50:50 with AIM-listed Hurricane Energy . Centrica has also owned 20% of a fleet of UK nuclear plants since 2009 , including the Hunterston B and Dungeness B nuclear power stations that generate around 20% of the UK 's electricity , with EDF Energy owning the other 80% . But both plants were shut down during 2018 after cracks were found during routine inspections and remain closed today . That saw nuclear power generation fall 19% in the H1 . Centrica is best known for supplying electricity and gas to homes and businesses in the UK , Ireland and North America , and producing energy through its interests in gas and nuclear projects . However , it has been placing greater focus on newer areas of the business , such as selling home energy products like smart thermostats or boilers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , help them lower their bills and become more energy efficient . Centrica has been planning to exit the power generation industry for several years but has now formally announced it will dispose of its interest in Spirit energy , following its announcement that it would sell its 20% stake in its nuclear power plants in February 2018 . This forms part of its strategy to shift ' towards the customer ' . The company believes generating power is too volatile a business and stretches its ability to truly deliver for the customer in terms of supplying that energy . Centrica intends to exit both businesses by the end of 2020 , but it is unclear how easy it will be to find a buyer . Its nuclear interests have been up for sale for over a year now and the fact large amounts of its capacity are currently out of action is unlikely to entice a buyer anytime soon . Centrica has said Spirit is a ' robust , self-financing entity in a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' not strategically core for Centrica ' . It also argues that producing oil and gas is n't compatible with its new strategy that is shifting toward selling devices that help customers reduce their carbon footprint and improve energy efficiency . Interestingly , others are doing the complete opposite , with major oil and gas providers making a big push into the supply market . Royal Dutch Shell is a prime example after the oil and gas giant bought First Utility 's retail business to mark its entry into the market with over 700,000 customers . Now renamed as Shell Energy , it is one of the largest suppliers outside of the Big Six with about 3% of the market . As the value within the energy market shifts more toward areas like low-carbon generation , renewable energy , energy storage and electric vehicle infrastructure , Shell and others , including the likes of TOTAL , are diversifying to make sure they are in the best position to capitalise on these new growth areas as appetite for its traditional business of pumping oil and gas wanes . Centrica will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ disposes of its gas and nuclear interests . Importantly , Centrica has said that the ? 500 million-or-so it expects to generate in asset disposals will be used to shore-up the business and its balance sheet . However , that is a stark turnaround from earlier this year when Conn , having been questioned about the sustainability of the dividend and whether a cut was on the horizon , said although there was pressure on pay-outs that investors should n't ' automatically conclude that means that there 's a dividend cut coming ' . ' If we sell these businesses that are non-core for ? 500 million , that will more than compensate for the amount of operating cash flow that we are losing so the company 's covenant to pay the dividend will still be strong , ' Conn said just in February . But it has since made a U-turn on that decision after it said in its interim results that any proceeds would be ' used to fund restructuring costs and underpin balance sheet to ensure strong @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this year . Standard & Poor 's Global downgraded Centrica 's credit rating to BBB from BBB+ in April , adding a marked improvement over the next two to three years was unlikely . Moody 's had downgraded the stock the month before to Baa1 from A3 , citing the huge amount of restructuring that needs to be done and how this will fundamentally change the investment case . ' The Baa1 issuer rating is constrained by Centrica 's increasing focus on less asset-intensive services businesses . The large majority of Centrica 's remaining long-term assets are associated with its nuclear investment , which the company has designated as non-core and intends to sell by the end of 2020 , and its gas production assets , which the company contributed to a joint venture in 2018 and has indicated may ultimately be sold , ' Moody 's said after Centrica 's preliminary 2018 results . Under Conn 's leadership , Centrica has been gradually moving toward selling more home energy devices and providing more services to businesses . By exiting power generation , Centrica is hoping to rebuild @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ opportunities in selling smart devices ( like its Hive smart thermostats ) , providing niche services that supply recurring revenue ( such as boiler installation and maintenance ) and providing services to its peers and other corporations ( such as advising on how to become more energy efficient or how to balance the energy grid ) . Conn started pursuing this strategy from the day he took over as CEO , but so far the transition has been slow and uninspiring . Its ' Connected Home ' business is growing . In fact , the 200,000 new Connected Home customers it acquired in all of its markets during the H1 was more than enough to offset the decline in energy supply customers , and subscriptions growth of 54% was driven by new offerings including its remote boiler diagnostic product and its cloud storage service . But , ultimately , the prospects have n't been anywhere near as good as Centrica had investors believe . Connected Home is still in the red , reporting a wider adjusted operating loss of ? 49 million in the H1 ( versus a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Centrica has backtracked on its prospects . The company 's original ambitions were to deliver ? 2 billion in revenue from selling devices and providing energy services to businesses by 2022 , but now it says its Connected Home division will only breakeven in 2021 and generate just ? 150 million to ? 200 million in revenue by 2022 . One of the main reasons that Centrica is far less bullish on the prospects of its Connected Home division is because it was originally too optimistic . It is confident that its Connected Home division can continue to thrive in the UK and Ireland but has conceded defeat in other markets . It has now decided to stop selling them in North America and other European markets such as Italy because it does n't boast the same brand awareness it does in the UK and because there is a lack of infrastructure . Going forward , Centrica is channelling its efforts for Connected Home -- which has been renamed Centrica Home Solutions -- into the UK and Ireland , which has obviously drastically reduced the potential size of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be questioned by analysts , but the CEO has refused to budge . Earlier this year he said he was ' convinced that the strategy is the right one for this company ' , adding ' the board just spent six months kicking the tyres and has come to the same conclusion , again ' . It is easy to see why Centrica has so far failed to win-round investors . With Centrica pinning its hopes on a loss-making activity with far from convincing prospects and exiting a troubled but profitable power generation business , investors are right to ponder what will drive earnings and growth going forward . Centrica has been aggressively becoming a leaner business under Conn 's leadership with a view of reducing costs so its core energy supply arm can compete better with the flood of newer rivals . It has already delivered ? 1 billion in cost efficiencies since 2015 and cut 9,000 jobs , and it is now aiming to make more over the next three years . This , coupled @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the ' most competitive supplier by 2022 ' . It said it is ' developing plans to fundamentally rebase the business and take us towards the cost base of the projected lowest cost supplier in the market ' . By introducing more automation , reducing duplicated systems and cutting non-customer facing roles , Centrica is hoping to deliver ? 20 of savings per dual fuel customer in real terms , ' taking us to around the level of the projected top quartile cost position in the UK in 2022 . ' This includes an ambition to shift the business online : Centrica currently secures more than half of its energy supply customers online and is aiming to increase this to 70% over the next three years . While it has had to scale-back its ambitions for Connected Home , Centrica is pursuing other avenues that , if successful , could transform the business . The company 's Distributed Energy & Power division -- which is being renamed Centrica Business Solutions -- is responsible for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their energy use . The unit , like Connected Home , is still loss-making but growing fast , with order intake in the H1 more than double that of the year before and revenue up 43% to ? 120 million . But Centrica has ambitions to make the division breakeven by 2021 ( matching the timeline for Connected Home to also breakeven ) and grow the division 's revenue to over ? 1 billion by 2022 , at margins of ' around 20% ' . Supplying software that can help monitor , manage and balance energy grids at a time when more intermittent power sources , such as wind and solar , is being connected to the grid will be key to hitting its targets . Earlier this year , Centrica signed a deal with one of Japan 's largest power firms , Tepco , to supply software that manages renewable energy being supplied to industrial customers in the Kyushu region in an effort to demonstrate there are green shoots for the business even if its core operations are struggling . Building a new business with revenue of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to revolutionise Centrica and turn its fortunes around . But , having been over-optimistic with its targets before , investors are justifiably wary of the company 's ability to deliver . Another major area where Centrica sees longer-term growth opportunities is the adoption of electric vehicles and helping manufacturers build the infrastructure needed for the technology to succeed , like charging stations . As the biggest electricity supplier in the UK and one of the biggest in North America , Centrica has a clear opportunity to benefit as more transportation runs off electricity . It is major shifts in technology and consumer behaviour like this has prompted oil majors like Shell to supply energy to end users as well as producing it , knowing the future is in generating low-carbon electricity rather than pumping for oil and gas . This initiative has been ignited by a deal Centrica has signed with Ford . The US car giant has hired Centrica as its exclusive partner to install car-charging units in customers , homes and provide a bespoke electric vehicle tariff through British @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . As customer 's energy needs become more complex and the grid uses more clean but unreliable renewable energy , Centrica sees itself operating as a vital middleman that helps ' control all energy management requirements of the home ' , whether that be through changing your heating using an app on your phone or having the ability to charge your car at home .

Below is a list of targets that Centrica has set itself @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cash flow : Centrica is aiming to deliver the lower-end of its ? 1.8 billion to ? 2.0 billion target range . That will be lower than the ? 2.25 billion delivered in 2018 . Cost efficiency savings : Centrica aims to deliver ? 1 billion of annualised cash efficiencies between 2019 and 2022 , which has been raised from a previous target of ? 750 million . It is aiming to deliver ? 250 million worth of savings in 2019 . It expects to deliver most of these savings sooner rather than later , with 85% to be locked in by 2021 . Restructuring costs and benefits : Centrica is accelerating its restructuring plans and has said it intends to spend around ? 1.25 billion on restructuring between 2019 and 2022 , which will deliver annualised savings of ? 1 billion . It has already spent ? 486 million on restructuring between 2016 to 2018 , with ? 170 million booked last year .

Net debt stood at ? 3.37 billion at the end of June , up from ? 2.88 billion a year earlier . Dividend : With the dividend rebased , Centrica has said it intends to pay-out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . That will be 58% less than the 12p paid in 2018 . ' Beyond this , our policy will be to deliver a progressive dividend over time , linked to earnings and operating cash flow growth , and with a targeted range of cover from earnings of 1.5-2.0 times over the medium term , ' Centrica said . It is a critical time for Centrica and investors are taking stock . The company is abandoning its volatile but profitable energy generation business . Its energy supply arm remains bloated and must improve its price proposition and customer service so it can compete effectively against smaller rivals . The dividend has been cut and there is n't a quick-fix , not one that Conn has managed to find anyway . If that is n't enough , investors are equally concerned about where future growth will come from . It is pinning most of its hopes on building-out its newly named Centrica Home Solutions and Centrica Business Solutions , but these have so far underwhelmed investors . It has had to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ its ability to make money out of supplying software and services to businesses is yet to be proven . The fact both businesses are still loss-making fails to install any confidence that it can make enough progress in these areas to offset the decline of its core business . The investment case for Centrica is now based on the long-term and whether you believe it can find more success in a new digital world shifting to decentralised , renewable-power than it did as a traditional energy supplier and producer . But , with Centrica yet to prove it has a real future , the company looks vulnerable . It desperately needs to stem the loss of energy supply customers ( which it believes it has done ) , otherwise the deterioration will continue . That , combined with the fact it has lost three-quarters of its value since the start of 2015 , could make it an appealing takeover target . Considering oil majors and other energy companies are gradually pushing into the supply market , it is easy to see why Centrica -- still the largest energy supplier @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ America -- could be seen as a potential entry point . Although Conn , as captain , has set the course for Centrica going forward , he is about to jump ship . While the board has supported Conn 's controversial strategy over the last five years there will be fears -- or hopes -- that a new CEO can steer Centrica in a different direction when they takeover next year . Either way , there will be little sympathy for Conn when he steps down , especially considering he was awarded a total pay packet of ? 2.4 million last year compared to ? 1.7 million in 2018 despite the company 's performance .

Reasoning
×
The sentence 'The Jackson family are tenants on the farm, led by Hap Jackson (Rob Morgan) who hopes he can work his way out of sharecropping and own his own slice of land one day' fits the transitive out of -ing construction. It has the structural pattern NP subject (Hap Jackson) + V1 (work) + NP object (his way) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (sharecropping). The NP object 'his way' is a possessive pronoun coreferential with the subject, which is an atypical but acceptable type of NP object in this construction. The interpretation is a prevention interpretation, where Hap Jackson hopes to prevent himself from continuing to sharecrop by means of working.

Netflix has plenty of movies to watch but there 's a real mixed bag on there . Sometimes finding the right film at the right time can seem like an impossible task . This is particularly the case now Netflix 's film rating system is a percentage rather than a numerical rating . So , to help you in this most important of tasks , we 've compiled a list of the good films on Netflix . 20th Century Fox Adapted from the best-selling novel of the same name and directed by David Fincher , Gone Girl is a masterful psychological thriller . Ben Affleck stars as an aimless and unfaithful husband who becomes prime suspect when his wife , played brilliantly by Rosamund Pike , goes missing . From the sociopathic lead characters to the hysterical response to the disappearance , Gone Girl is an unreal , unconformable and strangely compelling film with all the forensic style we 've come to expect from Fincher 's work . Netflix A breakup movie that is really about the joy of female friendship and the pain of growing old , Someone Great is powered by the chemistry between its three lead actors : Gina Rodriguez , Brittany Snow and DeWanda Wise . Rodriguez stars as Jenny , a journalist who simultaneously lands her dream job in San Francisco and breaks up with her boyfriend of nine years . To lift her out of her gloom , Jenny enlists her two best friends for one last adventure in New York City . Although the film sets itself up as a series of comic capers ( like Superbad or Dazed and Confused ) , it really finds its heart in the relationship between the three leads and their mutual support as they attempt to muddle through life -- it 's like picking up with the cast of Booksmart and finding out they 've really gotten into drugs in the intervening 13 years . Warner Bros . More than 35 years after the original , Blade Runner 2049 still manages to succeed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It took $259 million at box offices around the world . While the sequel see Harrison Ford and Edward James Olmos return in their roles from the original , Ryan Gosling ( playing K ) is the perfect non-human human . The film wants you to question your interactions with the technology around us and ponder whether the machines will ever take over , and does so masterfully . Watch it here . Open Road Films ByMatt Burgess and Laurie Clarke Based on a true story , Spotlight follows a team of investigative reporters at The Boston Globe newspaper as they uncover a horrific history of systemic child abuse and subsequent cover-ups within the Catholic Church . Rather than casting the journalists as heroes , director Tom McCarthy details the painstaking process that it takes to break such a major story : cajoling sources , gathering information and taking first-hand accounts of abuse . The film is made all the more shocking by the fact that despite @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2002 -- and only after the relentless determination of The Boston Globe -- for the story to finally reach the public . Sometimes a film is almost impossible to categorise ; such is the case with Velvet Buzzsaw . Jake Gyllenhaal plays Morf Vandewalt , an art critic whose influence means he has the art world wrapped around his little finger . What starts as an acerbic send-up of the high-end art scene soon turns into a very different film , however , when Morf 's friend/lover Josephina ( Zawe Ashton ) discovers a cache of haunted paintings left behind by a mysterious dead artist . Thus begins a kind of supernatural Final Destination plot , with character after character suffering increasingly bizarre deaths by contemporary artwork . Not one for the squeamish . Watch it now Warner Bros . ByWIRED Tom Hanks stars as Chesley " Sully " Sullenberg , the pilot who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hudson River after both engines were disabled by a bird strike just 80 seconds after takeoff , ultimately saving the lives of all 155 passengers on board . Although the flight itself lasted just three minutes , Sully concentrates on the accident 's aftermath as Sully is brought before the National Transportation Safety Board to explain why he chose to ditch the plane in the river rather than attempting to land at either LaGuardia Airport in New York , or New Jersey 's Teterboro Airport . Watch it now . Paramount Pictures Witty , outrageous and at times chilling , The Big Short will reaffirm your cynicism of Wall Street . Starring Christian Bale , Steve Carrell , Brad Pitt and Ryan Gosling to name a few , this comedy-drama was one of the more unexpected films to come out of 2015 . Originally a book by Michael Lewis on the financial crash , this BAFTA and Academy Award winning adaptation brings to the screen the crisis of 2008 and its roots . Be prepared to be enlightened and enraged . Go watch it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Written by and starring Ali Wong and Randall Park , Always Be My Maybe tells the story of two inseparable childhood friends whose lives veer dramatically apart after a grief-stricken rendezvous in their teenage years . Wong plays Sasha Tran , a superstar chef whose stratospheric career barely papers over the cracks in her faltering relationship . Park , meanwhile , plays Marcus Kim , whose ambitions have taken him no further than the local dive bar and his father 's air conditioning firm . Fate -- and a bizarre cameo from Keanu Reeves -- conspire to bring the two leads back together in a film that at long last lifts Asian Americans outside of Hollywood 's clich ? d casting and into a thoughtful and hilarious romantic comedy . Watch it now ByWIRED Before Three Billboards Outside Ebbing , Missouri , there was In Bruges -- and writer-director Martin McDonagh 's 2008 work is just as violently funny and darkly disturbing . After screwing up at work -- @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ray ( Colin Farrell ) is dispatched to the Belgian tourist trap to lay low with colleague Ken ( Brendon Gleeson ) , sparking a bewildering odd-couple comedy that descends into a discussion of ethics and redemption punctuated by plenty of gun shots when boss Harry ( Ralph Fiennes ) arrives to clean up the mess . It 's just landed on Netflix , watch it here . Universal Pictures Eddie Redmayne picked up an Oscar for Best Actor for his portrayal of Stephen Hawking in this moving biopic , which documents the life of the renowned astrophysicist from his student days at Cambridge University through the early years of his career . It focuses on his relationship with Jane Wilde , and the rapid progression of the motor neurone disease that would confine him to a wheelchair for much of his life . Watch it here . Apatow Productions / Relativity Media Bridesmaids pretty much redefined the chick flick when it was released in 2011 , plunging buddy comedy-style humour into a thoroughly feminine setting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pink taffeta . Kristen Wiig plays Annie Walker , a down-on-her-luck single woman who is appointed maid of honour by her best friend Lilian ( Maya Rudolph ) . It falls to Annie to organise dress fittings , hen dos and bridal showers , all the while attempting to corral Lilian 's motley crew of bridesmaids to great comic effect . Watch this here . Sony Pictures Edgar Wright has quickly established a reputation as one of the most creative mainstream directors in Hollywood , which explains the outstanding cast attached to this low-budget action flick . Jon Hamm and Jamie Foxx feature as two of several crooks in this crime caper where all the action is set to music . Ansel Elgort plays Baby , a talented wheel-man who listens to music to drown out his tinnitus . But he 's a reluctant criminal and when he tries to go straight to escape with his girlfriend ( Lily James ) , everything goes badly wrong . Wright 's flair for matching action to contemporary music is unmatched and the result is a film unlike @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sony Pictures A reboot of a reboot , Spider-Man : Homecoming was the first outing for Tom Holland as Peter Parker and he brings much-needed youthful energy to the role . It also features one of the best bad guys in any Marvel movie to date in Adrian Toomes , an industrious blue collar businessman who starts adapting Alien technology and selling weapons on the black market in the aftermath of the Battle of New York . It 's fun , action-packed and easy to watch . Watch it here . ByWIRED Netflix Ron Howard 's pulse-quickening biopic harks back to an era when Formula 1 was packed with larger than life characters . It tells the story of the epic rivalry between Niki Lauda ( played by Daniel Br ? hl ) and James Hunt ( Chris Hemsworth ) during the 1976 F1 season , and the former 's remarkable recovery from a fiery crash at the Nurburgring . A remarkable true story that is all the more poignant in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Netflix here . Ken **30;307;TOOLONG In 2003 , **28;339;TOOLONG Dr Hannibal Lecter -- played expertly by a terrifying Anthony Hopkins -- topped a list of the greatest villains in cinematic history compiled by the American Film Institute . This iconic movie sees Lecter engaged in a psychological battle of wits with novice FBI agent Clarice Starling , played by Jodie Foster , who needs his help to track down another serial killer before he strikes again . It won the Big Five ( Best Picture , Best Director , Best Actor , Best Actress and Best Screenplay ) at the Oscars - only the third film ever to do so ( After It Happened One Night , and One Flew Over the Cuckoo 's Nest ) . Watch it here . Getty Images / Universal Pictures / Handout BySabrina Weiss After a run of repeats on ITV2 stretching back to when the dinosaurs were actually alive , all three of the original Jurassic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ obviously the best , with star turns from Sam Neill , Laura Dern and Samuel L Jackson 's disembodied arm . It won three Oscars -- Best Visual Effects ( which stand up surprisingly well ) , Best Sound Mixing and Best Editing . There are so many iconic moments -- but it 's worth a re-watch for that soaring theme tune alone . Watch it on Netflix now . Warner Bros . Baz Luhrmann 's star-studded 2013 adaptation is visually stunning -- it won Oscars for both production and costume design -- but perhaps lacks the depth of the novel , which carefully skewered the excesses of The Jazz Age years before it all came crashing down . Leonardo di Caprio plays the titular millionaire , with Carey Mulligan and Joel Edgerton rounding out the awkward love triangle that forms the core of the plot , and Tobey Maguire in full blank canvas mode as narrator Nick Carraway . Watch it on a big screen , with a mojito . Watch it here . Warner Bros . Based @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the story of two twenty-something Americans who , through opportunism and more than a little fraud , become big-time arms dealers by bidding on US Army contracts around the Iraq and Afghanistan wars . It 's a black comedy at heart and Jonah Hill is brilliant as the more unhinged , morally bankrupt of the two opposite Miles Teller 's more sensitive straight guy . It does n't win awards for depth or complexity -- no surprise given it shares a director with The Hangover -- but it 's a fun , easy watch for a weekday evening . Watch it here . ByWIRED Netflix At the centre of David Lowery 's A Ghost Story is a man ( Casey Affleck ) wearing a white sheet . Not just a sheet but a sheet with two eye holes cut out . It 's quite a feat but Lowery manages to take that absurd image and make it tragic in this intense genre and time-bending look at loss . Rooney Mara @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ghost , carries the whole art house meets haunted house vibe and somehow it all works . Watch it on Netflix now Beachside After being caught in the backseat of a car having sex with her best friend , Cameron Post ( Chlo ? Grace Moretz ) is sent to a gay conversion camp by her devout aunt . Subjected to the repressive regime by camp guides who claim that their regime can help " cure " young people of their homosexuality , Post finds herself drawn to two of the camp 's rebellious outcasts . Watch it on Netflix . Sony Pictures ByWIRED Sport is really about data . That 's the view of baseball manager Billy Beane ( Brad Pitt ) , who ca n't compete with the big budgets of rival clubs . To add salt to his wounds , three of his best players have just moved to a rival team . Instead of trying to raise @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ side using statistics rather than tradition wisdom . The movie , which was nominated for six Oscars including Best Actor and Best Picture , is based on the real-life story , and book , about the 2002 season of the Oakland Athletics baseball team . Watch it here . Marvel has done a brilliant job fleshing out the fringe characters in its cinematic universe and Ant-Man , released in 2015 , is another hugely entertaining entry . Despite a somewhat troubled production , which saw Edgar Wright quit as director ( he and co-writer Joe Cornish retained screenplay and story credits ) , Paul Rudd nails the lead role in a film that does n't get bogged down in the wider Marvel story arc . There 's still signs of Wright 's involvement in some of its inventive set-pieces and Ant-Man was one of the first films to insert a little more humour into the MCU . Watch it here Screen Australia Based on the memoir of Saroo Brierley , Lion follows the life of a young boy who is separated from his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he is just five years old .

But when their young niece drops out of university to come stay with her creative aunt and uncle , their journey takes an unexpected turn . Private Life is hilarious and heartbreaking in equal measure as it depicts a couple fixated on one goal , to the exclusion of all else -- even their own relationship . Watch it on Netflix @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ want to watch Birdman twice . On a first viewing , the film 's cinematography -- ingenious though it is -- becomes a distraction . Under the guidance of Emmanuel Lubezki , the entirety of this cult fable appears to be formed from a single , elaborate tracking shot . Watch it a second time and the dazzling cinematography becomes a character of its own in the dreamlike narrative . This is a darkly comic tale of a man haunted by his past facing an unfolding existential crisis . And , four years after its cinematic release , it 's still unlike almost anything else out there .

This is a poignant depiction of the devastation that war can bring to a family . Watch it here . Warner Bros . Christopher Nolan 's Oscar-winning sci-fi headache is now on Netflix . If one level of 2019 's reality is n't enough for you then what better way to escape than through Nolan 's multi-levelled , action-packed dreamscape ? Remarkable visual effects are combined with an equally remarkable intellectual feast for one of the most original action films of the last decade . It 's a bit like playing a board game you do n't understand . And it 's got Leonardo DiCaprio in it . What more could you ask for ? Stream it now on Netflix . Curzon This art world farce from Swedish director Ruben ? stlund makes for slightly uncomfortable but seriously funny viewing , like a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Peep Show . You ca n't look away but you ca n't not look . The set pieces are sublime tributes to stupidity and even if it does n't quite match ? stlund 's Force Majeure , Claes Bang ( soon to play Dracula for Steven Moffat and the BBC ) is magnetic as the muppet at the centre of the chaos . Watch it here . TriStar Pictures This is without doubt one of the best children 's films of the 1990s . Do n't agree ? Stop reading . Matilda is a dark , witty and touching adaptation of Roald Dahl 's book of the same name . Danny DeVito is at his ludicrous , comic best , while Mara Wilson is a perfect fit for the understated but mischievous lead role . If you watched this film as a kid , it 's a great trip down memory lane . And even if you 're a bit too old for that , it 's still a great family film today . Watch it now on Netflix . Carlos Somonte / @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Gravity in 2013 , is very different from any film he 's made before . Set against the backdrop of unrest in Mexico City in the early 1970 's , the film follows Cleo ( Yalitizio Aparicia ) , who works as a housekeeper for a young , well-off family . The specificity of the film arises from Cuaron 's direction , as the film is based on the life of the nanny who raised him , Libo , and much of the mis-en-scene in the film is actually from his childhood . While the film is in black and white , and entirely in Chilango Spanish , it 's incredibly moving and absorbing , especially given how gorgeous the cinematography and direction is . Fans of Cuaron who have watched Gravity or Children of Men might be surprised , but this side of Cuaron is worth watching , and Roma is already generating Oscars buzz . Watch it here . Netflix A lot is expected from each new Coen brothers film . The Ballad of Buster Scruggs is something slightly different @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ set of six Wild West short stories . Each tale is about 15 minutes long , has its own cast and is n't connected to any of the others . The entire package is entertaining and the stories are well-told . By the time it finishes , you 'll be wanting more . Watch it here . Prepare yourself for a marathon . All three of the Lord of the Rings films have been added to Netflix 's catalogue . Totalling almost nine and a half hours ( for the theatrical versions ) the three movies are the definitive screenplay telling of J. R. R. Tolkien 's action-packed trilogy . Despite the first of the series -- The Fellowship of the Ring -- first being released in 2001 , none of the movies have aged in a away that decreases their brilliance .

With an all-star cast featuring DiCaprio , Jonah Hill , and Margot Robbie , The Wolf of Wall Street is ridiculous and exhilarating . Watch it here Lionsgate Written and directed by Taylor Sheridan , Wind River is a tense drama set in the snowy depths of Wyoming and forms part of his ' frontier trilogy ' , which also features Sicario and Hell of High Water .

Written by Aaron Sorkin and directed by David Fincher , The Social Network is all quick dialogue and lingering , artful frames . And , as the horror unfolds , you realise that Facebook 's unstoppable rise was pretty much all your fault . Watch it on Netflix . United Artists The late Philip Seymour Hoffman delivers one of his finest performances as the American author Truman Capote .

A taut , clever crime thriller , Nightcrawler explores the world of ' stringers ' , freelance videographers who scour late night LA for violent events to film and then sell to local news TV stations .

Henry McAllan ( Jason Clarke ) moves his young family to a farm on the Mississippi delta , although his wife Laura ( Carey Mulligan ) is less than pleased by the news that he 's also bringing his horribly racist father to live with them too .

Annihilation is his second feature as a director and it 's another serious , enthralling sci-fi exploration that 's much better than its ' straight to Netflix ' status would suggest . Channelling a sci-fi horror vibe reminiscent of Soviet-era mind trip Stalker , Annihilation 's main antagonist is a slowly expanding zone called The Shimmer in which all life is undergoing rapid and inexplicable mutation . Natalie Portman travels with an all-female team of scientists to try and reach the centre of The Shimmer and understand what 's causing it , and what happened to her husband after his own journey into Area X. Cerebral and dream-like , it 's the kind of film that begs discussion , interpretation and repeat viewings . It 's also an absolute visual treat @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Netflix What happened to Monday is so ridiculous that it 's brilliant . Part of the ever-growing list of sci-fi dystopian flicks , this Netflix Original tells the ever-unraveling story of six septuplets who had the misfortune of being born into a world with a strict one-child policy .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'gets pleasure out of keeping him out' involves the verb 'get' with an NP object 'pleasure', and the following 'out of' introduces a gerund phrase 'keeping him out', but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the NP object 'pleasure' does not function as a causee. Therefore, this is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Noah continues to be a character that fascinates me in this show because at times I really do n't know if The Affair is a fan of him or not . He 's without a doubt a character that 's done a lot of terrible , selfish things throughout the run of the series , but he has also shown progress in substantial ways . The final season for any series typically addresses how much its characters have grown since the pilot , but that 's kind of what this drama is all about . Noah is n't just someone who 's had an affair . He 's been tangential to a murder , gone to prison , and witnessed the death of his ex-wife . Even if you 've just tuned into one season of the show , he 's a character who 's been through a lot . In that sense , it feels deeply clunky when a journalist praises Noah 's latest work for a few minutes and then outright asks him , " Would you say that the redemption of Noah Solloway is complete ? " If this was n't enough , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ when it has prolonged discussions on whether Descent 's protagonist , Daniel ( aka Noah ) , is a fundamentally good or bad person . The Affair does n't need to spell out its messages to its audience like this and it 's a show that actually thrives on its subtleties. 503 is an important episode of the series story-wise , but it 's an instalment that does n't trust its audience nearly enough . It 'd be nice to be optimistic and say that this is done to mirror the fact that Noah does n't trust Helen enough during this episode , but it 's what holds the hour back . The first two episodes of this season have featured plenty of ego stroking for Noah and even though 503 begins much in the same manner , Noah 's good luck begins to crash down all around him . Maybe he has come full circle and become a better version of himself , but it 's a version of himself that 's being erased in many cases . Noah is subject to more of the uncomfortable experience of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of his comfort zone . In reality , Noah could use Helen 's new interest in his film as a means to bond with her , rather than turn it into a schism between them . The scenes where Noah expresses paranoia and suspicion over Sasha 's exact relationship with Helen are almost shot like a horror film and there are some evocative images there . The faint beat of Noah 's heart is even amplified on the soundtrack . This fear makes Noah so irrational that he 's ready to move back to New York City at a moment 's notice . While Sasha appears to have listened to Helen 's character input from the previous episode , it looks like Helen has also decided to heed his romantic advice . It 's still a slow process , but Sasha and Helen continue to become closer , much to Noah 's obvious chagrin . It still kind of feels like at any moment Noah is about to go on a rant about how Helen is killing " Independent Noah , " but the story is working for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the humbling lesson that Noah receives . It 's interesting to note that this episode brings up that Noah 's latest book is a biography about someone else . This is arguably the opposite of his quasi-autobiographical novel , Descent , and I 'd say that it shows progress on Noah 's part in response to being less self-interested . However , it 's also revealed that Noah wrote this book while in prison , so it 's also entirely possible that he used his time away from society to focus on someone else 's life so he did n't have to confront his own sins . It 's kind of the ultimate distraction . To some extent every episode of this season so far has featured some meta-ish conversation about the nature of Descent 's characters and how the novel was a way for Noah to rewrite and take hold of his narrative . Noah 's walked through fake versions of his home and interrupted recreations of pivotal moments from his life . It does n't get more literal than that . This concept wildly spins @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ better if the film 's Noah and Helen equivalents get back together , which is the exact opposite direction that the series and Noah have taken . What 's even worse is that Noah gets pressured into a position where he has to write these edits , as he forces this alternate version of himself to do the " right thing " ( until he 's eventually pushed out of that position , too ) . It almost becomes some therapy exercise and what Noah was trying to avoid doing in prison with the biography that he writes . On top of this , Noah 's reunion with Janelle makes him undergo a sickly similar procedure . Due to the possibility of the bad optics that can grow out of the public 's knowledge of Janelle 's relationship with Noah while she was his boss , she asks him to deny that the whole thing ever happened . He again is forced to edit his life and gets kicked even further while he 's down . This is doubly crushing for Noah because he also learns that Janelle @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like Sasha 's vision for the couple in Descent , are able to put differences aside and reclaim their love , whereas this is something that was impossible for Noah to achieve with Helen . There was a time when Helen would have rushed to a drunken Noah who comes to her door in the middle of the night , but now she explicitly smiles and gets pleasure out of keeping him out . Real or fake , all of the people around Noah are living the life that he ca n't . For a while it looked like The Affair might have ended where Noah has some version of a happy ending , but currently what looks a lot more likely is that all of Noah 's misdeeds result in him ending up abandoned and alone . A broken Noah that endlessly watches Descent so he can live in a version of his life that did n't explode would be an incredibly bleak ending , but one that I would n't necessarily hate . Because every episode of The Affair needs to have emotional torture porn involved @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Helen seems to be finding a rhythm and happiness to her new life , Bruce 's Alzheimer 's condition takes a turn for the worse and Helen once again has to confront mortality only a few mere months after Vik 's passing . However , Helen exhibits a lot more control this time . Margaret barks " Life 's not fair " to Helen as a mantra , but she continues to stand strong and defend the new life that she and her kids have found on the West Coast . Curiously , the plight that Helen 's parents face also speaks to the dangers of what can happen when a marriage does n't dissolve and a couple remains together for decades . Margaret 's stability is ruined and she has no idea what lies for her in the future because of Bruce 's reckless actions , even if they 're not intentional ones . Margaret 's life is in just as much disarray as Helen 's was when she lost Vik , so while it 'd be nice if Helen supported her parents , it 's easy to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from her fresh start . Bruce 's Alzheimer 's helps Helen confront some important decisions about family , but I hope that there 's more to this development than " Helen copes with the loss of a parent . " Honestly , if there 's any character that deserves one less crisis this season , it 's Helen . It 's likely that Bruce 's deteriorating state may end as some final catalyst between Helen and Noah , but we 'll see where it leads . It 's currently been a useful event to help Helen assert herself and the life that she wants , but there 's still a lot of time left in this season for her to return to New York . Finally , elsewhere in Future Land , adult Joanie 's mysterious journey into her and her family 's past takes a turn for the dangerous .

There 's really not much to report on here other than in the few minutes of Joanie 's story she manages to cheat on her husband and engage in some kinky sex ( with someone who may also be some member of the Lockhart clan ? ) . It 's material that easily could have been included last week or further expanded upon in this episode ( rather than Joanie and the bartender sharing about a dozen words before engaging in sex ) . I want to like this Joanie material , but currently the content is n't making a strong case for Alison 's offspring . Hopefully the point of her story is n't just to show how she 's damaged .

This episode follows @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and does n't try to dispel the leisurely pacing and atmosphere that 's in place . However , this episode does stronger work to bring everything together and indicate where this season is headed and what it 's interested in articulating as the show says goodbye . Emotional breakthroughs are currently more important than plot developments as these characters attempt to heal themselves , but that also means that some episodes are going to seem less exciting purely on a story level . So far Helen 's struggle remains the most interesting aspect of the season , while Joanie 's additions fail to fully justify themselves , and Noah 's beats verge on being repetitive , but at least show that the tide is turning for him . That being said , the material that works , really works , and Helen 's careful , honest reawakening is still worth the price of admission . This season still needs to do a lot to go out on a truly impressive note , but hey , people love a comeback story . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It uses 'comes out of' intransitively without an NP object, and the interpretation does not involve movement/extraction or prevention. Instead, it describes a result or state following an event.

The sentence 'How do I get out of doing this?' does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction, which requires an NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Here, 'get out of' is used intransitively without an NP object, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation as required by the construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'get out of' in a different context where 'attending this' is the activity to avoid, but there is no NP object that functions as a causee, nor does it fit the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'made a virtue out of using standard equipment', where 'made a virtue out of' does not involve a causer and causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The phrase 'out of using standard equipment' functions more as a complement describing the manner or basis of making a virtue, rather than indicating causation or prevention.

Industry consolidation is beginning to make its mark on the ranking of the world 's top 100 aerospace companies . Compiled by Flight International and Booz ? Allen & Hamilton Kevin O'Toole/LONDON AFTER THE turbulence of the past few years , it would be reasonable to assume that the world aerospace industry is ready to sit back and enjoy the long-awaited recovery . The assumption could not be more wrong , however . If anything , the pace of change has begun to accelerate as corporations in Europe , the USA and beyond manoeuvre to secure their position in a rapidly changing world . The point is illustrated by even a brief glance across the rankings in this year 's Aerospace Top 100 - a league table of the world 's largest aerospace groups compiled by Flight International and Booz ? Allen & Hamilton , a leading international management and technology consultancy based in the UK . The ranking shows that while some companies have indeed begun to make better profits on the back of recovering markets , the improvements are still suspiciously patchy given the upswing , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ no let-up in the stream of merger and acquisition activity . The short answer is that the predictions of the past four years seem to have been proved correct . Although the industry 's frenetic restructuring may have been prompted by recession , it was not simply a reaction to depressed markets , but the start of a more fundamental , and arguably overdue , re-ordering . " The current level of consolidation is no longer to do with the drop in demand . We 're well past the point where it was being driven by the recession , " says Ian Godden , lead aerospace consultant with Booz ? Allen in Europe . " We 're now at a turning point , " he adds , predicting that the dramatic shifts which have taken place so far across the industry are only the opening skirmishes in a broader restructuring of the world league and , arguably , in the way that the aerospace sector does business . A SEARCH FOR SCALE The most obvious lesson so far has been a redefinition of the scale @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or more , Boeing had stood head and shoulders above other major aerospace corporations with sales of around $20 billion a year . In 1995 , with the consummation of the marriage between Lockheed and Martin Marietta , it was joined by a giant on a new scale . Lockheed Martin grew again this year with its acquisition of the bulk of Loral . That puts the group on course for sales of around $27 billion . Boeing 's own recent agreement to buy up Rockwell 's aerospace interests will also bring it close to that mark , as well as giving further weight to a defence business which had begun to look undersized . Other budding US giants could soon join them on the top tier as the consolidation rolls ahead . The point is illustrated by a rough calculation of how the league table is likely to look after the latest round of acquisitions are absorbed ( see table below ) . That leaves groups such as Hughes Electronics , McDonnell Douglas and Northrop Grumman possibly only a merger away from the top of the ranking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the new sales benchmark for would-be leaders among the prime civil-aircraft builders and defence contractors . Only a few years ago it was $10 billion . That means that while some rise , others such as General Dynamics and now Rockwell will decide to quit the aerospace race , leaving perhaps only two or three major corporations in contention and perhaps a similar number in Europe . He admits that , as consultants have been fond of pointing out over the years , size in itself is not necessarily a virtue . In a world of fewer programmes , however , and tighter budgets , it is difficult to ignore the potential gains of improved efficiency , better use of resources , shared research budgets and even greater security that scale can bring . Customers themselves appear to feel more comfortable dealing with giants rather than minnows . EUROPE BEGINS TO ACT So far , much of the running in the big league has been made by the USA , but Europe too is beginning to act . The proposed merger of Aerospatiale and Dassault would propel @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It would be a remarkable change of policy for France not to forego the opportunity to take such a lead . Some form of merger between British Aerospace and Daimler-Benz Aerospace could create a second European giant , although the politics are less certain . The position is likely to become clearer during the talks over establishing the Airbus Industrie consortium as an independent company . That in itself would create a group with sales of around $10 billion and growing fast . A similar merger of French , German and UK defence interests would build a military giant on an even larger scale . As the prime contractors continue to grow , Godden believes that scale is also being redefined for the first tier of equipment suppliers . After its recent spate of acquisitions ( and a few disposals of non-core units ) , AlliedSignal is already on course to top the $5 billion mark , and Godden argues that others will begin to follow . Even among the smallest suppliers , there appears to be a drift upward in size . A couple of years @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ranking was not much more than $100 million . Today is twice that much . NEW SCALE Perhaps a third identifiable trend is for a new scale to apply among the regional and corporate aircraft producers of around $2 billion or more . The likes of Bombardier are already there , and the coming together of ATR and BAe 's regional-aircraft businesses into the Aero International ( Regional ) consortium has added another sizeable player . If this consolidation is no longer being driven by weak markets , then Godden argues that it is being spurred on by rising expectations from customers ( whether airlines or governments ) , translating into an industry-wide drive for shorter lead times , lower costs and improved reliability . " The pressure is being put on for those who remain in the industry to be much better performers in operational management , " says Godden . " In aerospace , we 're nowhere near a world-class performance yet , " he argues , adding that in addressing issues such as supply chain management , aerospace is still " light years @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has already been through years of turbulent change , provides a good example . UNIQUE PRODUCTS Aerospace products , for example , still tend to be unique - from the cockpit through to the landing gear . By contrast , car makers , coming under extreme pressure to lower the cost of their product , have made a virtue out of using standard equipment . As a result , the automotive-equipment sector is rapidly consolidating around a handful of global players . Godden estimates that the cost of using a myriad of unique products from different suppliers adds around 20% to the cost of a civil aircraft . It is a burden which he believes is already under attack as a new breed of aerospace management begins to take a fresh look at the way the sector does business . " There is a journey that the industry has now embarked upon which will improve customer value to the point where the customer can actually afford to buy a lot more , " he says . Some signs of improving operational management are already beginning @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the 1995 corporate results listed in the Top 100 ranking . A good scattering of companies have managed to increase operating margins . Perhaps more importantly , some are now beginning to show significant improvements in their return on capital employed ( ROCE ) - a measure of how profitably a company is using its assets . For shareholders , ROCE is a key test of whether their cash is wisely invested . " Anything below 15% ROCE , and you are getting into dangerous territory where investors could argue that their cash was better used in other industries , " says Godden . Above 20% , investors should start to take notice . IMPROVED PERFORMANCES Some aerospace operations are now breaking through this 20% barrier , and the improvements are coming from across a range of different countries and industry sectors . Godden points to MDC and Sundstrand in the USA , Canada 's CAE , Smiths Industries of the UK and France 's Arianespace . The only notable exceptions come from Germany and the Netherlands , where companies have been grappling to bring @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the free-fall of the US dollar , although that is now easing . The optimism naturally comes with some caveats . Operating profits are quickly boosted if a company decides to ease back on investment and run a business for cash . Others may be dressing up operations ready for a sale . Yet some companies appear to be managing to raise their returns while continuing to maintain a steady spend on research and keep up with capital investment . It will take another year or two before the true extent of the improvement begins to become clear , but Godden believes that if returns on capital can be maintained at 20% or above , then investment should soon begin to pour back into the aerospace industry . Managements which have been intent on caretaking rather than expanding their aerospace businesses during the recession , may then look to invest in the sector . The flip side is that companies which still can not make the sums add up may choose to quit . As ever , the most difficult choices lie with those mid-range , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ players but not big enough to be first-tier suppliers . Once these companies begin to consolidate in earnest , the world aerospace ranking will change indeed . Perhaps we too will have to consolidate by trimming down to a Top 50 ? |

The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('the company has announced new filter options, some of which take the posing out of posing'). It involves a prevention interpretation where the new filter options prevent the need for posing by some means (implied by 'take'). The NP object 'the posing' is semantically a causee in the event described by 'posing', and the construction allows for atypical NP objects as in the given example.

Check the calendar before you read any overly exciting news stories today , it 's April Fools ' Day and as such everyone pushing pranks - especially on the internet . In the past we 've been treated to some real corkers , such as the Playmobil Apple Store , 8-bit Google Maps and Pocket-lint 's own self-repairing smartphone glass , so companies will have to go some to live up to previous efforts . In fact , some of the previous efforts have been so good they were eventually made into real products . How many this year will achieve that honour ? We 've separated the silly from the sane so you can avoid re-tweeting something ridiculous while having a good laugh at some of the best attempts so far . And come on , be honest , how many of them did you fall for ? Sit back , get your giggle hat on as here are the best April Fools ' Day 2015 and 2016 jokes from around the web . And @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , you should check back often . Yep , the hands-on we created here at Pocket-lint in partnership with Microsoft was , as some guessed correctly , our April Fools Day joke for 2015 . Others were actually fooled though , it must be said ( just have a look in our comments below the original story ) , but we can see why because the best gags are the ones based on a little bit of fact . Palm vein reader technology does exist and we have seen it in action in the past . That requires specialist gadgetry however , not simply any tablet or monitor touchscreen . Many thanks must go to Bing.com for putting this together for us . According to Sealy , bed manufacturer and creator of the Neuro-Coder , the time to record our dreams is finally upon on -- on 1 April . The Neuro-Coder is , obviously , the world 's first bio-sensing headband that connects to a phone and records dreams . In the morning the owner can scroll through @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to Facebook or Twitter is also an option , because we do n't apparently expose enough of ourselves already on social media . Narrative is a wearable camera that automatically takes photos intelligently when it detects a face or scene . Now the company has announced new filter options , some of which take the posing out of posing . Filters include duck face and eye opener for those posers that want to out-pose those other poser wannabes . Then there 's the cat lover 's filter of choice , meow mode , which drops a bunch of cats in the foreground of a shot . Ideal . Domino 's Pizza announced that 1 April is the day it will roll out its driverless delivery vehicle . Domi-No-Driver will use an onboard PI ( Pizza Interface ) to calculate the most efficient route to the person who ordered the pizza . Then the H.U.N.G.A.R ( Hunger Detection and Ranging ) system will detect obstacles as and flash up polite statements like " What am I like ? " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's says , will be able to carry 400 per cent more pizza thanks to 100 per cent less driver . Apparently , we 've been told that Three 's Selfie Tour Bus , which is shepherding British tourists around Barcelona today is a real thing to promote the network 's Spanish launch . Three customers can now use their minutes , texts and data plans in Spain and New Zealand , as well as the other 16 locations around the world as part of the company 's Feel at Home incentive . But while it 's not technically an April Fools ' Day prank , its timing and the very idea qualifies in our book . British online gadget retailer Firebox always comes up with some cracking April Fools ' Day gags and this year is no exception . There are a few but the Kim Kardashian Jelly Mould is definitely up there with the best . Based on THAT photo - the one that broke the ' net - the mould would be best @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Firebox even suggests you " grease the tin " to give it a familiar sheen . Champagne bottle and glass not included . Yeezus Juice Following up on its Kim Kardashian Jelly Mould , Firebox has come up with an energy drink that can unlock your inner egotistical beast and amp up your arrogance . It 's called Yeezus Juice , and it 's inspired by Yeezus himself . Drink it to get a confidence boost or a narcissistic buzz . It 'll raise your self-esteem and maybe even ignite a controversy or two . Word on the street is that it makes you a God too . Or was that a genius ? Either way , take a sip and you 'll become your own biggest fan . Another of Firebox 's comes in the guise of underwear for those who do n't want to carry around their contactless payment cards or an Oyster . The Smart ePants have a waterproof NFC microchip inside that stores your credit , debit and other contactless card details . That way you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Or grind against it like a naughty dog if you 've accidentally put them on the wrong way round . And just imagine what will happen when paying in a restaurant on one of those mobile payment readers . The Smart ePants are available for men and women . Although they 're not really . The last of the Firebox ones for now is definitely in the " eeeeewwwwww " camp . The Inner Selfie Stick is the " perfect tool for the more intimate selfie " and is likely to give people nightmares . It 's essentially a waterproof camera extension for a smartphone that you can literally stick where the Sun do n't shine . It 's also compatible with Apple 's FaceTime , claims Firebox , which we must admit really raised a chuckle . Gene Gadget has come up with a bunch of April Fool 's hoaxes , starting off with the Brain Eraser . Have you ever embarrassed yourself or been rejected by someone you love or experienced something completely horrible ? The Brain @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will take care of everything , as it is designed to delete certain memories from your brain permanently and safely . Simply attach the ? 49.95 biological optic pads to your temples , then run the software scanner to organise your memories , and choose to delete a memory or store it away safely . You can always reinstall the memory at a future date . If only , right ? Genie Gadgets has come up with an app for April Fool 's Day that 's meant to capture and deliver smells . The concept works like this : Download the Send-A-Smell app ( for ? 29.95 ) , then attach the Windometer smell receiver to any smartphone via the included adapters , and Greentooth technology will convert any smell in close proximity and send it over the same frequency that your voice uses . The idea is you can use the app to send the smell of roses to a loved one or the smell of coffee to yourself when your alarm goes off in the morning . The receiver of the smell @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ What smell would you send ? And finally , Genie Gadgets just took something you always wanted as a kid and turned it into an April Fool 's gag of your dreams : Hoverboots. they are powered by two Nano-Flufter jet propulsion systems , which are chargeable via any USB port , allowing the boots to lift you up a whopping 25,000 feet at speeds of up to 400MPH . They even come with two Marshmalom hand stabilisers to ensure you do n't lose balance . The boots are also custom fitted . A " robotic android measuring man " will arrive at your door within 30 minutes of your order being placed to measure your feet . Um , we 'll pass on that , but we 'll definitely take the boots ! Oh , but first we need ? 9,995 to pay for them . Ouch . It looks like only the rich will get a first-class ticket to space . How very Richard Branson . Coffee shop chain Costa is pretending to trial a new service from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . It 's imported Japanese-inspired Ostrich pillows that can turn tables into relaxation zones . Customers basically place their coffee order , then let Costa staff know what time to wake them using table clocks , and finally , they take in the pillow . A barista will later wake them with their favourite Costa drink . Costa has predicted the combination of a short nap and a coffee will sustain your energy levels for at least three hours . Barclaycard is jumping on the April Fool 's Day bandwagon with Barclaycard Anything . It 's a new service that turns everyday objects into contactless ways to pay . It so far includes tap-and-pay gloves , which eliminates the need for you to rummage through a purse , as well as a payment saddle , which let parents pay for their child 's donkey ride with just the tap of a card . Barclaycard will also set up contactless activation kiosks across the UK that will allow the public to embed contactless chips into any of their personal belongings . Your kids can make @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or you can turn your favourite pair of pants into a way to pay for goods at registers . The payment chips can be registered to any credit or debit card . ThinkGeek has a whole slate of April Fool 's Day fake products , such as this Game of Thrones-themed version of Clue . It 's replaced all the standard pieces with 48 new suspects and 48 new weapons as well as a larger 2 x 4ft game , meaning this version has 69,120 possible suspect/location/weapon combinations . What 's the betting we 'll see it , or something similar , being sold for real one day ? Continuing this trend of taking entertainment and turning it into April Fool 's Day bogus merchandise , ThinkGeek has used the Power Wheels brand to come up with Mad Max-inspired vehicles for your children . They 're called Power Wheels Desert Drifters . These cars can go up to 7.5 miles per hour and are outfitted with spikes , spears , and foam-dart automatic weapons . And of course @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ThinkGeek made a steam machine for April Fool 's . Kinda . This is a gaming cabinet that 's literally steam powered . It uses a " patent-pending " miniature boiler mechanism and a stationary steam engine to produce enough electricity to play all your games . Cat ladies/gentlemen will love this ... The legend of Voltron , Defender of the Universe , is now a mighty cat condo . Well , in the minds of ThinkGeek anyway . It is offering up a cat tree like you 've never seen before ; it 'll house your fluffy critters with its cozy , fleece-covered quarters and solid wood platforms , all while maintaining peace throughout the galaxy . This one reminds us of HTC 's gag from last year : it 's a Dungeons and Dragon Encounter wearable from ThinkGeek that can track your movements with a tri-axis accelerometer , gyroscope and GPS , and digital compass . It even has an optical heart-rate monitor . So , if you ever find yourself @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Borderlands , you 'll know your fitness level is being monitored all the while . ThinkGeek is catering to the Kim K in all of us with this torso-mounted rig that allows you to take 360-degree selfies . You just need to supply your own cameras , but you can be sure that every angle of you will be fully documented and Instagram-worthy . Not finished with the movie/TV-inspired April Fool 's goodies , ThinkGeek has come up with something for those of you who love Guardians of the Galaxy . This device is actually a limited-run beverage set comprised of a non-caffeinated root beer with a shot of caffeine on the side , and it 's all inspired by two of the most fan-loved characters from the sci-fi film . It 's another that could potentially be made for real some time in the future . However , out of all the April Fools ' Day prank products from ThinkGeek this year , this is the one that is likely to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ GoT-themed mount system that allows for one-handed operation of any device up to 4 inches wide . The idea is that it will securely hold your device in place , just like Hodor would , allowing you to drive and keep your hands on the road . There 's also a companion app , which provides GPS capabilities ( with street names voiced by Hodor , naturally ) . Released in Japan just for April Fools ' Day - and actually released we are lead to believe - is a cologne that provides you with the flame-grilled scent of a freshly made Burger King burger . Lovely . Of course , whenever we 've been in Burger King in the UK our burgers have been popped into a microwave before being served , so maybe it 's the smell of slightly irradiated meat . Either way , probably still better than covering yourself with " Brut " . BMW 's gag this year utilises the help of England Rugby star Chris Robshaw to model and talk about the company @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ same level of protection as its cars . As explained by BMW , the Motor Mount guard is " entirely made up of ethylene-propylen-dien rubber -- standard protection in the door seals of all BMW models " . The key phrase there is " entirely made up " . Like Firebox 's pants , HTC sticks to wearables for its excellent April Fools ' Day joke this year . The HTC RE Sok , which has its own website for the day , is a smart sock . It has a read-out on the ankle that keeps you up to date with notifications and features GPS so both socks can never get lost . Our favourite bit though is that it comes in three colours , midnight , stealth and true black - all of which are identical , of course . Lingerie brand Ultimo has naturally opted for wearable technology for its prank , with the Mind & Body smart bra being able to hook up to a smartphone . It tweets messages automatically based @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sensors . It is part of a limited edition range and only available until midday today , of course . Fancy a pack of fertilised eggs that hatch into beautiful little chicks on Easter Day ? That 's what Not On The High Street proposed as its April Fools Day gag . The eggs would arrive at your doorstep 17 days into a 21-day incubation period , ready to crack and reveal the tiny chicks as your Easter morning surprise . They could be personalised in non-toxic ink too . The soon-to-be released Samsung Galaxy S6 edge has been lauded as one of the best phones available but Samsung believes it can make it even better . Hence the Galaxy BLADE edge , which not only has the smartphone abilities of the S6 range , but doubles as a chef 's knife too . Made of patented ceramic , the Galaxy BLADE edge , with its folding handle , even comes with a finger detection mechanism that will retract the sharp bit before @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the taxi-calling application and service , has added an even quicker way to get around central London than in the back of a black cab : piggyback rides . A specially trained human piggyback carrier can be called at the tap of the Hailo app , ready to transport passengers to their destinations . It would be an ideal way to see the city in 360 degrees while darting through traffic , that 's for sure . Typically from Lomography , the prank is one of the best looking we 've seen and you have to admire the effort taken . Especially the genuine underwater photography . Now , what camera did they use for those ? RS Components have taken the classic Henry vacuum cleaner and turned it into a drone you can control around the house with a remote control . The retailer has even posted a tutorial online on how to build your own . Of course , it wo n't work . But while you 're checking it out you can head to their special April Tools @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ T-Eliot : world 's first reverse toilet Bathroom retailer Bathstore has always been a big supplier of some of the best April Fools Day fake products , with the stand-up bath being a favourite , and this year it follows with the world 's first reverse toilet . The T-Eliot ( toilet backwards , natch ) is Wi-Fi enabled and is faced the other way so that users can look at their tablets or eBook readers hands-free , thanks to the built-in technology dock . Why they would need both hands available is not explained . While we await the official release of PlayStation 's virtual reality headset Project Morpheus , the company has devised an alternative wearable device that features complete games immersion . Water immersion too . The PlayStation Flow has been developed by the team at PlayStation Wearable Entertainment Technology ( PWET ) and enables users to take part in in-game underwater activities by literally swimming underwater . A PS4 links to the goggles via Bluetooth and LCD screens give you the action . Top banana . We particularly love that the YouTube Channel it is posted under is labelled " Essex Today " as in a cheesy local UK news reportage . It could also have been called " The Pony Way is Essex " we reckon . After England won the Rugby World Cup in 2003 , Mastercard saw a significant rise in the number of rugby union fans using the year as their PIN code . The problem has worsened still with this year 's tournament imminent , so the finance firm has decided to withdraw the number entirely as it represents a security risk . Like BMW , Mastercard employed the services of a rugby star to help with its April Fools Day prank - in this case the 2003 winning captain Martin Johnson . " Anyone still using 2003 as their PIN number , it really is time @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Here Kitty Cats , as we know , are disloyal minxes ( literally in some cases ) and are want to sneak around behind your back , supping on a neighbour 's milk as happily as your own . That 's why Here Maps has devised a wearable cat collar for you to track your feline friend 's whereabouts online through the map service . You can also train your cat to lick the fish bone symbol on the collar to communicate ; one lick means " I 'm coming home and hungry " , three means " do n't wait up , I 'm having a late one " . Ever since Amazon announced that it planned to make deliveries by drone the idea has been popular . Hence it 's the focus for Carlsberg 's April Fools ' Day joke , with its own beer delivery drone . Packs of ice cold beer will be delivered strait to your home within half an hour of order . And it 's a nice touch having the local newspaper , the Northampton Chronicle @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ being recorded in the area as a scoop . Google has chosen April Fools ' Day to announce a revamp on good old fashioned snailmail . Smartbox is a US-style mail box that notifies its owner when there is physical mail . It 'll even organise it , zap spam mailers and offers a display screen for Google connectivity on the go . Of course none of this is actually real and Google is basically dancing on the grave of mail - which it killed . But it 's all in the name of a laugh so why not ? Case design has always been an issue , with new covers needed to suit new outfits . Now Kameleon Kloak is here to change all that with its iPhone 6 case that adapts to whatever its owner is wearing . Of course this is utter codswallop but we like to use the word codswallop at least once a year so now seems like the right time to cash in . While the idea of slowing down the data in the pipes is laughable we like the idea of slowing down to take more time for living life . iZettle , creator of the small business chip and pin reader , has blinged up its offering with an 18-karat gold model . Now spending money should feel more decadent than ever for those using the 18-karat iZettle . Luxury mobile payments , that do n't necessarily have to be for luxury items , is set to be a fast growing area . Well , it would , if it was real . What 's the next step in computing that 'll make everything even more effortless ? Self-browsing Chromebooks of course . Google 's self-browsing Chromebooks start running and surfing the web from the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ From writing emails to sending roses to your loved one , it 'll do it all . The company points out : " This new functionality has been tested for weeks , browsing the whole web from classifieds to news , music to cat photos - and now , these Chromebooks are responsible for the majority of ALL CAPS comments on the web . " While this is clearly a joke it 's interesting that it pokes fun at its own goals of creating machines that live our lives for us . FashScan is the app from Olympus which , as the name suggest , scans fashion using the Olympus Pen camera . Retailers can use the app to help offer outfit selections to shopper , or not since it 's April Fools ' Day . While this is clearly a joke similar systems have appeared in the past which may , one day , make virtual shopping faster and easier than the real thing . Imagine a pair of trousers with Wi-Fly that can intelligently alert @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pressure sensors that get you moving after detecting you 've been sitting too long . How about a system that detects when your waist tension is too tight and locks the fridge ? The Samsung Internet of Trousers can do all that and will even track heart rate and blood pressure to remind you to keep your trousers on when things get hot and heavy , but you 've set them to help you stay in control . Sometimes games can be too real . That 's when back-up needs to be called in . We do n't want to ruin the fun of this video so wo n't say anything more . Watch and enjoy . Honda Honda has chosen today to show off a world first , the emoji number plate . This is aimed at its younger buyers who want to express more than the numbers and letters on the front of their car can currently offer . The Honda Civic Type-R is shown with the new plates . Honda @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( DVLA ) with plans to have these emoji plates on the roads by 2017 . Great timing and a wonderful way to help launch their new London rental bikes for pairs . Now we want to see the two Buttons race head to head on separate bikes . Pimms You 've heard of Pimms o'clock before , but if you were unsure of exactly when that is , London 's Big Ben may now be able to help . The drinks company has taken over the face of Big Ben , as shown off in a news report from Peter Sissons himself . So , you know , it 's got ta be real . Google 's Cardboard virtual reality headset that turns a phone into a world warping experience has long been rumoured to get a plastic upgrade . It appears this is n't quite what we were expecting . Check out the video to see how reality can be included in Cardboard too . It does n't look much sillier than Google @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the go still has n't been perfected . Earphones , headphones , vibrating bone conduction audio - none of it has nailed it . The solution is here : a flying speaker . How this has n't been done before we ca n't fathom . Ideal for sharing with everyone around you too - but still probably less sound bleed than standard Apple earphones . Watch out Domino 's employees , a robot with a pizza cutting arm is coming for your jobs . Also , if the Domimaker ( as it 's called ) were to get out of control , probably your limbs would be in danger of a good slicing too . Still , if it means getting better cut pizza faster it 's worth the risk , right ? If you 've been on YouTube today you might have noticed the small icon at the bottom which looks like a profile of Snoop Dogg , because it is . Hit that SnoopaVision icon and you 'll be taken into a world of virtual @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you were in the room watching with Snoop Dogg . Although this is just an April Fool , we applaud the effort . It 's worth watching some of the videos just for Snoop 's commentary . If you thought ordering take away could n't get much easier , you need to try the mind controlled Deliveroo . The only problem is you 'll have to concentrate really hard if you want to be healthy . Arsenal 's famous Emirates Stadium is due for an overhaul thanks to Citro ? n . A new material " sunroof " will be installed on the stadium for 2017 . As the players attest in the above video it should allow for weather control to help improve player performance . Maybe there 's a little too much gooning around going on here . Sony Remember the Proton Pack from The Ghostbusters films ? Sony has made one . Sony says : " Superconducting temperatures are maintained by a liquid helium reservoir , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that available from a cryogen dewar alone " . On top of all that fancy ghost capturing tech it 'll even pack in a Sony Cyber-Shot RX camera , Short Throw 4K projector and Stamina battery mode - ideal for winding down after a day of ghost hunting . Houzz The company behind home furniture shopping of the future has come up with its own line of smart furniture . Not only are the items spacially aware , to offer placement advice , but they track changes too . The furniture will be able to alert the home owner to dirt build up , smudges and even wrinkles . The furniture is interactive so , Houzz says , " spending time with your furniture is like being with friends " . Firebox Sometimes the one thing you need to send you off to the land of nod at night is the sound of an intergalactic space vessel . Search no further . ThinkGeek has come up with a device that will replicate ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . It will even project a moving star field onto your ceiling to really lull you off to sleep . First Direct Save Zap is a new wearable from First Direct capable of recognising a wearer 's location and zapping them when they get too close to a shop they 've set as a no go area . Simple , yet painfully effective . Never slip up in the shower again with the Shower Belt . Not only will the belt suction-attach to the shower walls at three anchor points , to avoid falling , but it 'll double as a tool belt too . Load up with your shower gel , razor , shampoo and anything else you can cram into the Shower Belt and , even with all that weight , you do n't need to worry about falling .

Reasoning
×
The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('the company has announced new filter options, some of which take the posing out of posing'). It implies a prevention interpretation where the new filter options prevent the act of posing in a certain way. The verb 'take' fits into one of the categories of means (by means of exerting force or pressure, metaphorically understood). The NP object 'the posing' is semantically a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'posing'. Therefore, it is an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

Check the calendar before you read any overly exciting news stories today , it 's April Fools ' Day and as such everyone pushing pranks - especially on the internet . In the past we 've been treated to some real corkers , such as the Playmobil Apple Store , 8-bit Google Maps and Pocket-lint 's own self-repairing smartphone glass , so companies will have to go some to live up to previous efforts . In fact , some of the previous efforts have been so good they were eventually made into real products . How many this year will achieve that honour ? We 've separated the silly from the sane so you can avoid re-tweeting something ridiculous while having a good laugh at some of the best attempts so far . And come on , be honest , how many of them did you fall for ? Sit back , get your giggle hat on as here are the best April Fools ' Day 2015 and 2016 jokes from around the web . And @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , you should check back often . Yep , the hands-on we created here at Pocket-lint in partnership with Microsoft was , as some guessed correctly , our April Fools Day joke for 2015 . Others were actually fooled though , it must be said ( just have a look in our comments below the original story ) , but we can see why because the best gags are the ones based on a little bit of fact . Palm vein reader technology does exist and we have seen it in action in the past . That requires specialist gadgetry however , not simply any tablet or monitor touchscreen . Many thanks must go to Bing.com for putting this together for us . According to Sealy , bed manufacturer and creator of the Neuro-Coder , the time to record our dreams is finally upon on -- on 1 April . The Neuro-Coder is , obviously , the world 's first bio-sensing headband that connects to a phone and records dreams . In the morning the owner can scroll through @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to Facebook or Twitter is also an option , because we do n't apparently expose enough of ourselves already on social media . Narrative is a wearable camera that automatically takes photos intelligently when it detects a face or scene . Now the company has announced new filter options , some of which take the posing out of posing . Filters include duck face and eye opener for those posers that want to out-pose those other poser wannabes . Then there 's the cat lover 's filter of choice , meow mode , which drops a bunch of cats in the foreground of a shot . Ideal . Domino 's Pizza announced that 1 April is the day it will roll out its driverless delivery vehicle . Domi-No-Driver will use an onboard PI ( Pizza Interface ) to calculate the most efficient route to the person who ordered the pizza . Then the H.U.N.G.A.R ( Hunger Detection and Ranging ) system will detect obstacles as and flash up polite statements like " What am I like ? " @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 's says , will be able to carry 400 per cent more pizza thanks to 100 per cent less driver . Apparently , we 've been told that Three 's Selfie Tour Bus , which is shepherding British tourists around Barcelona today is a real thing to promote the network 's Spanish launch . Three customers can now use their minutes , texts and data plans in Spain and New Zealand , as well as the other 16 locations around the world as part of the company 's Feel at Home incentive . But while it 's not technically an April Fools ' Day prank , its timing and the very idea qualifies in our book . British online gadget retailer Firebox always comes up with some cracking April Fools ' Day gags and this year is no exception . There are a few but the Kim Kardashian Jelly Mould is definitely up there with the best . Based on THAT photo - the one that broke the ' net - the mould would be best @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Firebox even suggests you " grease the tin " to give it a familiar sheen . Champagne bottle and glass not included . Yeezus Juice Following up on its Kim Kardashian Jelly Mould , Firebox has come up with an energy drink that can unlock your inner egotistical beast and amp up your arrogance . It 's called Yeezus Juice , and it 's inspired by Yeezus himself . Drink it to get a confidence boost or a narcissistic buzz . It 'll raise your self-esteem and maybe even ignite a controversy or two . Word on the street is that it makes you a God too . Or was that a genius ? Either way , take a sip and you 'll become your own biggest fan . Another of Firebox 's comes in the guise of underwear for those who do n't want to carry around their contactless payment cards or an Oyster . The Smart ePants have a waterproof NFC microchip inside that stores your credit , debit and other contactless card details . That way you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Or grind against it like a naughty dog if you 've accidentally put them on the wrong way round . And just imagine what will happen when paying in a restaurant on one of those mobile payment readers . The Smart ePants are available for men and women . Although they 're not really . The last of the Firebox ones for now is definitely in the " eeeeewwwwww " camp . The Inner Selfie Stick is the " perfect tool for the more intimate selfie " and is likely to give people nightmares . It 's essentially a waterproof camera extension for a smartphone that you can literally stick where the Sun do n't shine . It 's also compatible with Apple 's FaceTime , claims Firebox , which we must admit really raised a chuckle . Gene Gadget has come up with a bunch of April Fool 's hoaxes , starting off with the Brain Eraser . Have you ever embarrassed yourself or been rejected by someone you love or experienced something completely horrible ? The Brain @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will take care of everything , as it is designed to delete certain memories from your brain permanently and safely . Simply attach the ? 49.95 biological optic pads to your temples , then run the software scanner to organise your memories , and choose to delete a memory or store it away safely . You can always reinstall the memory at a future date . If only , right ? Genie Gadgets has come up with an app for April Fool 's Day that 's meant to capture and deliver smells . The concept works like this : Download the Send-A-Smell app ( for ? 29.95 ) , then attach the Windometer smell receiver to any smartphone via the included adapters , and Greentooth technology will convert any smell in close proximity and send it over the same frequency that your voice uses . The idea is you can use the app to send the smell of roses to a loved one or the smell of coffee to yourself when your alarm goes off in the morning . The receiver of the smell @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ What smell would you send ? And finally , Genie Gadgets just took something you always wanted as a kid and turned it into an April Fool 's gag of your dreams : Hoverboots. they are powered by two Nano-Flufter jet propulsion systems , which are chargeable via any USB port , allowing the boots to lift you up a whopping 25,000 feet at speeds of up to 400MPH . They even come with two Marshmalom hand stabilisers to ensure you do n't lose balance . The boots are also custom fitted . A " robotic android measuring man " will arrive at your door within 30 minutes of your order being placed to measure your feet . Um , we 'll pass on that , but we 'll definitely take the boots ! Oh , but first we need ? 9,995 to pay for them . Ouch . It looks like only the rich will get a first-class ticket to space . How very Richard Branson . Coffee shop chain Costa is pretending to trial a new service from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . It 's imported Japanese-inspired Ostrich pillows that can turn tables into relaxation zones . Customers basically place their coffee order , then let Costa staff know what time to wake them using table clocks , and finally , they take in the pillow . A barista will later wake them with their favourite Costa drink . Costa has predicted the combination of a short nap and a coffee will sustain your energy levels for at least three hours . Barclaycard is jumping on the April Fool 's Day bandwagon with Barclaycard Anything . It 's a new service that turns everyday objects into contactless ways to pay . It so far includes tap-and-pay gloves , which eliminates the need for you to rummage through a purse , as well as a payment saddle , which let parents pay for their child 's donkey ride with just the tap of a card . Barclaycard will also set up contactless activation kiosks across the UK that will allow the public to embed contactless chips into any of their personal belongings . Your kids can make @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or you can turn your favourite pair of pants into a way to pay for goods at registers . The payment chips can be registered to any credit or debit card . ThinkGeek has a whole slate of April Fool 's Day fake products , such as this Game of Thrones-themed version of Clue . It 's replaced all the standard pieces with 48 new suspects and 48 new weapons as well as a larger 2 x 4ft game , meaning this version has 69,120 possible suspect/location/weapon combinations . What 's the betting we 'll see it , or something similar , being sold for real one day ? Continuing this trend of taking entertainment and turning it into April Fool 's Day bogus merchandise , ThinkGeek has used the Power Wheels brand to come up with Mad Max-inspired vehicles for your children . They 're called Power Wheels Desert Drifters . These cars can go up to 7.5 miles per hour and are outfitted with spikes , spears , and foam-dart automatic weapons . And of course @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ThinkGeek made a steam machine for April Fool 's . Kinda . This is a gaming cabinet that 's literally steam powered . It uses a " patent-pending " miniature boiler mechanism and a stationary steam engine to produce enough electricity to play all your games . Cat ladies/gentlemen will love this ... The legend of Voltron , Defender of the Universe , is now a mighty cat condo . Well , in the minds of ThinkGeek anyway . It is offering up a cat tree like you 've never seen before ; it 'll house your fluffy critters with its cozy , fleece-covered quarters and solid wood platforms , all while maintaining peace throughout the galaxy . This one reminds us of HTC 's gag from last year : it 's a Dungeons and Dragon Encounter wearable from ThinkGeek that can track your movements with a tri-axis accelerometer , gyroscope and GPS , and digital compass . It even has an optical heart-rate monitor . So , if you ever find yourself @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Borderlands , you 'll know your fitness level is being monitored all the while . ThinkGeek is catering to the Kim K in all of us with this torso-mounted rig that allows you to take 360-degree selfies . You just need to supply your own cameras , but you can be sure that every angle of you will be fully documented and Instagram-worthy . Not finished with the movie/TV-inspired April Fool 's goodies , ThinkGeek has come up with something for those of you who love Guardians of the Galaxy . This device is actually a limited-run beverage set comprised of a non-caffeinated root beer with a shot of caffeine on the side , and it 's all inspired by two of the most fan-loved characters from the sci-fi film . It 's another that could potentially be made for real some time in the future . However , out of all the April Fools ' Day prank products from ThinkGeek this year , this is the one that is likely to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ GoT-themed mount system that allows for one-handed operation of any device up to 4 inches wide . The idea is that it will securely hold your device in place , just like Hodor would , allowing you to drive and keep your hands on the road . There 's also a companion app , which provides GPS capabilities ( with street names voiced by Hodor , naturally ) . Released in Japan just for April Fools ' Day - and actually released we are lead to believe - is a cologne that provides you with the flame-grilled scent of a freshly made Burger King burger . Lovely . Of course , whenever we 've been in Burger King in the UK our burgers have been popped into a microwave before being served , so maybe it 's the smell of slightly irradiated meat . Either way , probably still better than covering yourself with " Brut " . BMW 's gag this year utilises the help of England Rugby star Chris Robshaw to model and talk about the company @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ same level of protection as its cars . As explained by BMW , the Motor Mount guard is " entirely made up of ethylene-propylen-dien rubber -- standard protection in the door seals of all BMW models " . The key phrase there is " entirely made up " . Like Firebox 's pants , HTC sticks to wearables for its excellent April Fools ' Day joke this year . The HTC RE Sok , which has its own website for the day , is a smart sock . It has a read-out on the ankle that keeps you up to date with notifications and features GPS so both socks can never get lost . Our favourite bit though is that it comes in three colours , midnight , stealth and true black - all of which are identical , of course . Lingerie brand Ultimo has naturally opted for wearable technology for its prank , with the Mind & Body smart bra being able to hook up to a smartphone . It tweets messages automatically based @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sensors . It is part of a limited edition range and only available until midday today , of course . Fancy a pack of fertilised eggs that hatch into beautiful little chicks on Easter Day ? That 's what Not On The High Street proposed as its April Fools Day gag . The eggs would arrive at your doorstep 17 days into a 21-day incubation period , ready to crack and reveal the tiny chicks as your Easter morning surprise . They could be personalised in non-toxic ink too . The soon-to-be released Samsung Galaxy S6 edge has been lauded as one of the best phones available but Samsung believes it can make it even better . Hence the Galaxy BLADE edge , which not only has the smartphone abilities of the S6 range , but doubles as a chef 's knife too . Made of patented ceramic , the Galaxy BLADE edge , with its folding handle , even comes with a finger detection mechanism that will retract the sharp bit before @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the taxi-calling application and service , has added an even quicker way to get around central London than in the back of a black cab : piggyback rides . A specially trained human piggyback carrier can be called at the tap of the Hailo app , ready to transport passengers to their destinations . It would be an ideal way to see the city in 360 degrees while darting through traffic , that 's for sure . Typically from Lomography , the prank is one of the best looking we 've seen and you have to admire the effort taken . Especially the genuine underwater photography . Now , what camera did they use for those ? RS Components have taken the classic Henry vacuum cleaner and turned it into a drone you can control around the house with a remote control . The retailer has even posted a tutorial online on how to build your own . Of course , it wo n't work . But while you 're checking it out you can head to their special April Tools @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ T-Eliot : world 's first reverse toilet Bathroom retailer Bathstore has always been a big supplier of some of the best April Fools Day fake products , with the stand-up bath being a favourite , and this year it follows with the world 's first reverse toilet . The T-Eliot ( toilet backwards , natch ) is Wi-Fi enabled and is faced the other way so that users can look at their tablets or eBook readers hands-free , thanks to the built-in technology dock . Why they would need both hands available is not explained . While we await the official release of PlayStation 's virtual reality headset Project Morpheus , the company has devised an alternative wearable device that features complete games immersion . Water immersion too . The PlayStation Flow has been developed by the team at PlayStation Wearable Entertainment Technology ( PWET ) and enables users to take part in in-game underwater activities by literally swimming underwater . A PS4 links to the goggles via Bluetooth and LCD screens give you the action . Top banana . We particularly love that the YouTube Channel it is posted under is labelled " Essex Today " as in a cheesy local UK news reportage . It could also have been called " The Pony Way is Essex " we reckon . After England won the Rugby World Cup in 2003 , Mastercard saw a significant rise in the number of rugby union fans using the year as their PIN code . The problem has worsened still with this year 's tournament imminent , so the finance firm has decided to withdraw the number entirely as it represents a security risk . Like BMW , Mastercard employed the services of a rugby star to help with its April Fools Day prank - in this case the 2003 winning captain Martin Johnson . " Anyone still using 2003 as their PIN number , it really is time @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Here Kitty Cats , as we know , are disloyal minxes ( literally in some cases ) and are want to sneak around behind your back , supping on a neighbour 's milk as happily as your own . That 's why Here Maps has devised a wearable cat collar for you to track your feline friend 's whereabouts online through the map service . You can also train your cat to lick the fish bone symbol on the collar to communicate ; one lick means " I 'm coming home and hungry " , three means " do n't wait up , I 'm having a late one " . Ever since Amazon announced that it planned to make deliveries by drone the idea has been popular . Hence it 's the focus for Carlsberg 's April Fools ' Day joke , with its own beer delivery drone . Packs of ice cold beer will be delivered strait to your home within half an hour of order . And it 's a nice touch having the local newspaper , the Northampton Chronicle @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ being recorded in the area as a scoop . Google has chosen April Fools ' Day to announce a revamp on good old fashioned snailmail . Smartbox is a US-style mail box that notifies its owner when there is physical mail . It 'll even organise it , zap spam mailers and offers a display screen for Google connectivity on the go . Of course none of this is actually real and Google is basically dancing on the grave of mail - which it killed . But it 's all in the name of a laugh so why not ?

A grandmother accused of killing her terminally-ill husband could not have given him a lethal overdose of drugs without his knowledge , it has been claimed in court . The prosecution and defence have now made their closing statements in the case of Mavis Eccleston , who is accused of murdering husband Dennis on February 20 , 2018 . Defence solicitor Mark Heywood QC has told the court that it would not have been possible for Mr Eccleston to be given a lethal dose of prescription medication without him knowing , due to the " bitter taste " of the tablets used . But prosecutor Tony Badendoch QC claimed that an alleged admission of guilt to two mental health nurses at Stafford County Hospital suggested that Mrs Eccleston killed her husband in a " mercy killing " . Mrs Eccleston , 80 , who now lives in Hare Park , Drakelow , has been on trial at Stafford Crown Court and the jury are soon due to retire to deliberate on whether Mrs Eccleston is guilty of murder or an alternative charge of manslaughter .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'run out of housing space' involves 'run out of' followed by a noun phrase 'housing space', not a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the sentence does not yield a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Animal Crossing fans are treated with not one , but two new entries in the series this year , with the 3DS Animal Crossing : Happy Home Designer , and the upcoming Animal Crossing : amiibo Festival on Wii U. We may have to wait a little longer for a mainline entry in the series , but the more limited scope of Happy Home Designer gave Nintendo plenty of room to experiment with new ideas , many of which really need to be brought to the mainline games in the series . Here are 10 such ideas that absolutely need to be in the next , full-fledged , Animal Crossing title , whenever that may happen ( hopefully soon ! ) . Or else well send Tom Nook after someone , and Nook always collects his debts . With a titular emphasis on designing homes , Happy Home Designer completely reinvents the way players are able to lay out , arrange , and decorate houses . No more walking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ want it , only to pick it up when you want to move it again . That 's just exhausting . Instead , HHD uses the bottom screen of the 3DS as a grid to easily make your dream homes a reality . The navigation system in HHD isnt perfect , but it does make placing and arranging furniture easier than it has ever been before . A future AC game on the Wii U could easily pull this off with the GamePad . Another new feature in HHD is the addition of various interior sounds you can have playing in the background of your house . Background sounds - such as rain , wilderness , train , space , jungle , and city - all flesh out the auditory ambience of your homes , giving them that little extra flair . The sound selection in HHD isnt huge , especially when compared to the other music options - such as K.K. Sliders tracks - but it could be further developed to really add in some melodic atmosphere to rooms . Imagine Pikmin background @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but realistic , details , such as having a tea kettle go off in your kitchen . Theres a certain dimension in Animal Crossing that has hitherto been left unexplored . Players are able to decorate almost all of the house , and even hang stuff on the walls . But , look up ... who wants a house with bare ceilings ? ! HHD has made the sky the limit - literally - by adding a bunch of new fixtures that you can hang from the ceiling . Chandeliers , ivy , disco balls , lamps , shelves , and spotlights are just the start of the fun things you can add to pimp out the rafters . Just imagine if each existing AC set added a new piece that glammed up the ceilings . Oh , yeah ... the Happy Home Academy would love that . And so would we . While it isnt like we have to worry about Nook being a literal peeping Tom , its the small details and finishing touches that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it a place that any of the cutesy AC villagers would want to call home . HHD allows players to pick not only the window frames ( everything ranging from simple colors to exotic , shoji , and lattice designs ) , but also the drapes that cover them . There are some cool prints as a start in HHD , but , again , heres hoping a future AC would have matching drapes for every existing furniture set . ( I never thought Id be so excited for drapes ! ) And while were at it , anytime you show a villager the door , that door should fit with your theme as well . A solid gold wall could go between your main room and the secret gold-themed temple we all know you have in your house somewhere . New Leaf allowed players to place some pieces of furniture outside their homes with Public Works projects , but for the most part , AC games have kept with a strict **29;1425;TOOLONG house-or-else rule . Its a silly rule , and one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are able to design entire front and back yards at the whim of the many villagers . This opens up loads of possibilities for designing an entire town , but it also sets the stage for a whole new world of furniture options to surround your house . And speaking of towns ... Happy Home Designer added a bunch of new liveries for revelry in your town : a school , a hospital , a hotel , an office , and even a concert hall . All of these are new to the Animal Crossing universe , and would make great additions to the already standing locales , such as the coffee shop , museum , and shoe store . The public works in New Leaf enabled players to create and help develop their towns , so if Nintendo combines that with the new principalities in HDD , players would have the ability to add - and customize - a wide array of different municipalities . And for bonus points , make it so the player can deck them out just like in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Mars 2112 themed restaurant needs to live on . This is a big one . In New Leaf , I got stuck with a large quantity of quite annoying animal neighbors with which to share my town . Nobody wants the AC equivalent of Everybody Loves Raymond , with obnoxious guests popping in your house all the time . HHD lets you choose between a few different villagers every day to have move in , which by itself would be a great addition to the next AC . Imagine being able to pick some of the starting villagers in a new town , or even being able to select which ones move in on any given day . Its a dream come true . Taken even further , amiibo integration could also enable you to use amiibo cards to directly add villagers to your town , giving you the ability to hand-select which villagers you want to be your friend , while also single-handedly killing the AC villager online black market . Ankha , you will finally be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ! Along with picking which villagers can move into your town in HHD , you also get to decide where the villagers live , and even place their houses in a specific location . Sure , each villager lives in a bubble that isnt really connected to the others , but theres no reason this same approach couldnt be taken to designing your entire town . With each new villager that moves in , you get to pick where they set up shop . I do nt think I can properly explain my frustration every time a new villager started encroaching on my garden of perfect apple trees in New Leaf and then put up a house right in my backyard . Grrr ... get out of my backyard , Jay ! The holiday sets are some of the most coveted - and most fantastic - in Animal Crossing , and they enable players to expand their holiday-themed festivities to the outside of their homes . There were only a few themed exteriors in HHD , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ set . An animal can dream ! And while Im at it , St. Patricks Day really needs its own unique set of furniture . But I digress ... While it might be weird for the mayor to be going around designing villagers homes , it could give players the opportunity to further customize their towns , while also giving more streamlined - and more interesting - tasks for them to do for their villagers . Also , I tend to run out of housing space eventually , so taking HHDs ideas and designing the NPC animal homes in a future AC game would give me more buildings , and therefore more rooms , in which to display all of the furniture that I amass . Pretty much , I want control over everything . Happy Home Designer opened the floodgates ... and hopefully the next AC will substantially build on that new foundation as well . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'run out of' which is a phrasal verb indicating depletion, not a transitive out of -ing construction. There is no causer-causee relationship, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The navigation system in HHD isnt perfect , but it does make placing and arranging furniture easier than it has ever been before . A future AC game on the Wii U could easily pull this off with the GamePad . Another new feature in HHD is the addition of various interior sounds you can have playing in the background of your house . Background sounds - such as rain , wilderness , train , space , jungle , and city - all flesh out the auditory ambience of your homes , giving them that little extra flair . The sound selection in HHD isnt huge , especially when compared to the other music options - such as K.K. Sliders tracks - but it could be further developed to really add in some melodic atmosphere to rooms . Imagine Pikmin background @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but realistic , details , such as having a tea kettle go off in your kitchen . Theres a certain dimension in Animal Crossing that has hitherto been left unexplored . Players are able to decorate almost all of the house , and even hang stuff on the walls . But , look up ... who wants a house with bare ceilings ? ! HHD has made the sky the limit - literally - by adding a bunch of new fixtures that you can hang from the ceiling . Chandeliers , ivy , disco balls , lamps , shelves , and spotlights are just the start of the fun things you can add to pimp out the rafters . Just imagine if each existing AC set added a new piece that glammed up the ceilings . Oh , yeah ... the Happy Home Academy would love that . And so would we . While it isnt like we have to worry about Nook being a literal peeping Tom , its the small details and finishing touches that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it a place that any of the cutesy AC villagers would want to call home . HHD allows players to pick not only the window frames ( everything ranging from simple colors to exotic , shoji , and lattice designs ) , but also the drapes that cover them . There are some cool prints as a start in HHD , but , again , heres hoping a future AC would have matching drapes for every existing furniture set . ( I never thought Id be so excited for drapes ! ) And while were at it , anytime you show a villager the door , that door should fit with your theme as well . A solid gold wall could go between your main room and the secret gold-themed temple we all know you have in your house somewhere . New Leaf allowed players to place some pieces of furniture outside their homes with Public Works projects , but for the most part , AC games have kept with a strict **29;1425;TOOLONG house-or-else rule . Its a silly rule , and one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are able to design entire front and back yards at the whim of the many villagers . This opens up loads of possibilities for designing an entire town , but it also sets the stage for a whole new world of furniture options to surround your house . And speaking of towns ... Happy Home Designer added a bunch of new liveries for revelry in your town : a school , a hospital , a hotel , an office , and even a concert hall . All of these are new to the Animal Crossing universe , and would make great additions to the already standing locales , such as the coffee shop , museum , and shoe store . The public works in New Leaf enabled players to create and help develop their towns , so if Nintendo combines that with the new principalities in HDD , players would have the ability to add - and customize - a wide array of different municipalities . And for bonus points , make it so the player can deck them out just like in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Mars 2112 themed restaurant needs to live on . This is a big one . In New Leaf , I got stuck with a large quantity of quite annoying animal neighbors with which to share my town . Nobody wants the AC equivalent of Everybody Loves Raymond , with obnoxious guests popping in your house all the time . HHD lets you choose between a few different villagers every day to have move in , which by itself would be a great addition to the next AC . Imagine being able to pick some of the starting villagers in a new town , or even being able to select which ones move in on any given day . Its a dream come true . Taken even further , amiibo integration could also enable you to use amiibo cards to directly add villagers to your town , giving you the ability to hand-select which villagers you want to be your friend , while also single-handedly killing the AC villager online black market . Ankha , you will finally be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ! Along with picking which villagers can move into your town in HHD , you also get to decide where the villagers live , and even place their houses in a specific location . Sure , each villager lives in a bubble that isnt really connected to the others , but theres no reason this same approach couldnt be taken to designing your entire town . With each new villager that moves in , you get to pick where they set up shop . I do nt think I can properly explain my frustration every time a new villager started encroaching on my garden of perfect apple trees in New Leaf and then put up a house right in my backyard . Grrr ... get out of my backyard , Jay ! The holiday sets are some of the most coveted - and most fantastic - in Animal Crossing , and they enable players to expand their holiday-themed festivities to the outside of their homes . There were only a few themed exteriors in HHD , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ set . An animal can dream ! And while Im at it , St. Patricks Day really needs its own unique set of furniture . But I digress ... While it might be weird for the mayor to be going around designing villagers homes , it could give players the opportunity to further customize their towns , while also giving more streamlined - and more interesting - tasks for them to do for their villagers . Also , I tend to run out of housing space eventually , so taking HHDs ideas and designing the NPC animal homes in a future AC game would give me more buildings , and therefore more rooms , in which to display all of the furniture that I amass . Pretty much , I want control over everything . Happy Home Designer opened the floodgates ... and hopefully the next AC will substantially build on that new foundation as well . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'borne out of winning' which does not involve a causee or a prevention/movement interpretation. The phrase 'borne out of winning' is more about the origin or result of an action rather than causing someone to move out of or preventing someone from doing something.

Exceptional though this Liverpool 3 Newcastle 1 game was , the constant reference to the 1996 4-3 match between Liverpool and Newcastle United is about as relevant to 2019 as Michael Owen 's autobiography . Liverpool are better than they were then and they were pretty good then . For NUFC it is just a reminder @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , few in my lifetime , but this weekend there was no part of me which expected anything other than a comprehensive defeat . And so it passed . The first ten minutes pointed to an even and attacking game of football . Liverpool were slow to get into the game , without Firmino and their first-choice midfield , without intensity and perhaps overconfident of victory . United regularly burst forward with Atsu , Almiron and Willems capably supporting Joelinton . It was one such occasion after seven minutes when Atsu fed Willems and after a bit of penalty box trickery the left wing back thumped a beautiful right footed shot across Adrian and into the top corner of the scousers ' goal . A super goal and probably the last time in the half when we had four players around the opposing penalty area . But as Franz Kafka once said : " Man 's fundamental weakness lies by no means in the fact that he can not achieve victory but in the fact that he can not exploit his victory . " The goal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not for those in black and white . Unable to exploit the victory , seduced by memories of winning 1-0 away to Spurs , NUFC dug in for the siege . It later emerged that one reason for the change in momentum was that Jurgen Klopp had switched Origi and Mane , so Mane began marauding down the left and Origi was more central . While that may be true , the immediate impact was that Liverpool slowly but surely pushed United back into their last third and Atsu and Almiron were unable or unwilling to drive forward as they had early on . Even so , the first 25 minutes had only a red header off-target to show for territorial progress . Then came the carnage . The next ten minutes or so saw Origi head wide when well placed , Lascelles and Matip fall to the ground as the Ghost of John Aldridge screamed penalty , Mane 's equaliser and Van Dijk miss a chance he should have taken . NUFC got out of their half once . Offside . After 37 minutes another blow @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ most complete forward in the PL " , Roberto Firmino on . The battering continued . Liverpool scored again and kept the ball until half time . The new Peter Beardsley From a defensive point of view , the two home goals were truly awful . Krafth caught out of position for the first goal allowing Robertson to move forward and find the unmarked Mane in the penalty area . Mane unmarked because Schar tried to cover his defensive colleague and left in no-mans land . If Dubravka could have done nothing about the first goal , he could have done everything about the second . Atsu lost possession cheaply on halfway , Liverpool moved forward and a through ball to Mane should have been intercepted by our super-keeper . With one eye on his new contract , the other eye was n't on the ball , kneeing it onto the forward and ricocheting toward goal . Mane apologetically tapped it in . Goalkeepers are different , their mistakes are remembered . Just ask multiple Championship winning and England stalwart David Seaman . Ask him about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , forget about how good he was . Who 'd be a keeper ? The second half started much the same as the first . Liverpool sleeping , United hunting . Supposedly a tactical switch had put Almiron more centrally and the reward was first good link-up play between Shelvey , Almiron and Joelinton who put a dreadful ball onto the onrushing Krafth to punt wide . Had Joelinton seen the chance that Krafth missed a couple of minutes later , he probably would have shot . I do n't know why he did n't to be honest , I do n't really want my strikers passing to my right back in the penalty area but there you go . Atsu down the wing , a good cross into the box , Krafth wide open ten yards out , chested it down , booted it into the Kop . I think . Might have gone over the Kop . That was our last chance . Maybe even the last attack where Almiron , Joelinton and later Muto , who replaced Almiron , managed to stay onside , who knows @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ game Then there was 35 minutes of Liverpool trying to get into double figures . Chances galore came , Dubravka made some fine saves , Liverpool missed a few they should have scored , Salah shot when he should have passed and our defence continued the sort of last gasp interceptions that Steven Taylor would have been proud of . Liverpool scored a beautiful third through a sublime flick from the excellent Firmino , an unfortunate slip from Schar and a tidy finish from Salah . Liverpool kept the ball and tried to score more but did n't , NUFC tried to keep the score down and did . A hollow victory . The end . Last season Sadio Mane said that he did n't want to leave Liverpool as he was already at the " sexiest club in Europe . " What that makes Newcastle I do n't know . Anne Widdecombe ? It is difficult to know what Steve Bruce could have done to stop this and certainly 3-1 was as good a result as I could have expected . Last season goal difference was talked @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it is likely that it will be discussed as much this season too . From my own point of view , if you get enough points , your goal difference is irrelevant and there was little to see here that pointed to a new dawn of attacking football . Perhaps it is not the game to judge the Stevolution . Either way , his substitutions on Saturday were all purely defensive , all based on keeping the score down . Especially turning down the opportunity to go to 4-4-2 and try and get a point after 80 minutes when Schar departed and Fernandez came on . I do n't blame him , he is trying to keep his job , but let 's not try and claim that this is attacking football . I will content myself with saying that although the game finished 3-1 , it could easily have been 7-2 but thankfully it was n't , so we can escape the re-runs for the next 25 years . On the optimistic side , Hayden continues to show he can improve enough to play at this level @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ show enough to be optimistic about the left side in an attacking sense if not a defensive one . The team also certainly gave the effort to show they want to play for the club . The pessimist says whatever Shelvey used to have as a player has gone , he was poor at Anfield in a game I would have expected him to be up for . Joelinton continued to defy his price tag , not in a good way . He continued to make his runs even though either no one saw him , no one was looking , or they simply did n't pass to him . Some of his hold up play is good . That 's about it . It is understandable his head goes down , not that quickly though and not for that long . He often looks slow and sluggish and his relationship with Almiron is non-existent . It might be difficult to forge a relationship with the unpredictable Paraguay but Rondon and Perez did it immediately . However United do it , the same needs to happen quickly between @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this season . Almiron was a breath of fresh air last season , that he is n't now is n't all his fault . He runs more than anyone else and he tries things no one else does . That nothing comes of it is partly down to him . I am sure having a player as sporadic Almiron in front of him is not helping Krafth find his feet at a new club and in a new league but I would be interested to see if he has ever played in a back five before . He does n't look like he has , or anyone has bothered to tell him how . Defensively he is everywhere he should n't be , he hugs the back line whereas Willems plays fifteen yards further up with the midfield . The result is n't a 5-4-1 , it is lop-sided 4-5-1 with Schar and Krafth close together and Lascelles and Dummett far apart . No wonder goals like the first one happen . To me , Krafth is a square back four peg in a wing-back 's hole . Which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Annual . Emil Krafth : In a wing-back 's hole Pundits will say it was individual mistakes which cost United on Saturday but I ca n't completely agree . Liverpool have better players and put those in black and white under the sort of pressure they could n't handle , the sort of pressure which brings mistakes . Schar and Dubravka are consistently good players , if they make mistakes you know it is a tough game . That is to be expected in a game against a team constructed with serious money , with very good players and the confidence borne out of winning , but Norwich did it too and so did Watford for a half . Last season Klopp said that he needed to teach his team to win ugly . He might ask Steve Bruce 's advice on that one , this season that may be all we 've got .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'priced out of' followed by a noun phrase 'buying Base Icons on the Transfer Market', which does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction as it lacks a VP2[-ing] predicate and does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

Mid Icons reflect an Icon later in their career when they had to adapt their playstyle to stay near the top of their game . Mids are available in packs from this thursday until mid-February 2020 only , EA said . Prime Icons reflect an era where an Icon was consistently at the height of their skills and abilities . These are in packs from mid-December 2019 until the end of FUT 20 . And finally , Moment Icons focus on " a truly memorable , historic performance " in an Icon 's career that " elevated them to one of the all time greats " . Primes , which are the highest-rated versions of Icons in FUT 20 , come online in February 2020 and stick around until the end of FUT 20 . Yahsir Qureshi , live producer on FIFA Ultimate Team , said in a blog post that he hopes this system will " encourage greater variety in squad @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like it should do that , given the best versions of the Icons - the Moments - wo n't be available until nearly half a year after the game comes out .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'opt out of' followed by a noun phrase 'receiving marketing from us', which does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate with a causee interpretation. Additionally, there is no NP object that functions as a causee, and the sentence does not yield a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it uses 'opt out of' as a phrasal verb followed by a gerund phrase 'receiving marketing from us', which does not involve a causer and causee relationship or induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The context is about choosing not to receive marketing, not about causing someone to move out of or preventing someone from an action.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it describes the creation of an ETF out of anything, which does not involve a causee or a VP[-ing] predicate. Therefore, it does not fit the transitive out of -ing construction.

Russia 's stock market has returned about 30% this year making it one of the best performing in the world , and the easiest way to invest is with an ETF By Ben Aris in BerlinSeptember 17 , 2019 Russia 's stock market has returned about 30% this year making it one of the best performing in the world , but as a retail investor how do you go about buying some Russian shares if you think the rally is going to continue ? Investing into Russian equity is a rollercoaster ride , but when the market performs , it flies . So far this has been one of the up years with Russian stocks outperforming not only the other emerging markets , but even the US S&P500 index . The benchmark MSCI Emerging Markets Index has gained 3.42% in 12 months , the S&P500 gained 5.27% for the same period whereas the Russia Trading System ( RTS ) Index gained 36.57% . And on top of that investors earned an additional 9.29% if you count the generous dividend payments companies dish out to shareholders @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , more recently buying exotic stocks like Russian shares has been made easy and cheap by the advent of exchange-traded funds ( ETFs ) . In the old days you had to set up a brokerage account and order your broker to buy the shares for you . These accounts are complicated to create and expensive to use as you get charged for each transaction . The alternative is to invest into a fund , but most of these have a 2+20 deal where the fund manager takes a 2% commission management fee each year and keeps 20% of any profit the fund makes . One of the biggest appeals of an ETF is they charge you a flat fee , typically less than 1% of the money under management , making them a far cheaper way to invest into somewhere like Russia . ETFs carry an " expense ratio " . If this ratio is 0.5% then the fund will cost you $5 in annual fees for every $1,000 you invest . The average ETF expense ratio is 0.74% , according to Morningstar Investment Research . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shares as they come as a premade bundle of stocks -- typically the biggest and most liquid bluechip names -- that are designed to give an investor an nice balanced portfolio . And ETFs are sold under various wrappers such as index trackers or growth names . A second appeal of the ETFs is they are themselves listed on exchanges so they are easy to cash out of as the fund itself can be sold at any time . The no-frills rock bottom price of ETFs meant that investors have traded in their expensive brokerage accounts for ETFs and the bulk of equity investments into Russia are now made via ETFs , contributing to the death of the famous investment banking names of the 90s like Troika Dialog , Renaissance Capital and Aton . Russian ETF dozen Despite the size of Russia 's market there are actually only a dozen Russian ETFs that cover the market and only two ETFs -- ITI Funds RTS Equity UCITS ETF ( ticker : RUSE ) listed in Moscow and London and NEXT FUNDS Russia RTS Linked E ( ticker @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ leading dollar denominated RTS Index that is the benchmark for most international investors . The two biggest and best-established Russian ETFs are American . There are six US traded ETFs in all , but VanEck Vectors Russia ETF ( RSX ) and iShares MSCI Russia ETF ( ERUS ) have by far the most assets under management ( AUM ) of $1.1bn and $653mn respectively . The other US traded funds are small with the Direxion Daiy Russia Bull x3 Shares ( RUSL ) having only $82mn and its " Bear " counter ( RUSS ) part a mere $20mn under management . The new kid on the block , the recently established Franklin FTSE Russia ETF ( FLRU ) , still only has $14.7mn of assets . However , the performance of all these ETFs this year has been outstanding , with all of them returning between 20% and 30% YTD as of the end of August , and the Direxion Bull fund is up 67.6% . ( The Direxion Bull fund is special fund , structured so that it multiplies by three the market @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the falls and is down by just under 50% this year as a result . It is also extremely expensive with a expense ratio of 1.1% . ) Even the latest entry into the game , the Franklin FTSE , is up by a handsome 29.4% over the period . And if you were clever enough to buy a Russian ETF in the last few years then they have made good returns as the country emerges from the crisis that started in 2014 . The VanEck Vectors Russia ETF has been making gains all year -- 7% in four weeks , 13% in 26 weeks . The fund suffered this summer from a brief sell-off , but overall it made a 24.3% return YTD this year , which is the bulk of the 25% it returned in the last 12 months . The returns are high , but the US ETFs are expensive to use by ETF standards . The VanEck Market Vectors Russia ETF has a 0.63% expense ratio , but high liquidity and tight bid/ask spread balance this higher cost . The fund was set @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ last bull market , but was losing money from April 2011 . The crisis years of 2014-2016 hurt the fund badly , and it posted a -57.82% loss over the last five years . But if you had invested three years ago when the recession started to recede the fund would have returned a whopping 40% . Investing is Russia has always been about getting the timing right in the extremely volatile market . iShares MSCI Russia Capped ETF takes a different approach , tracking the benchmark MSCI Russia 25/50 Index , a free float-adjusted market cap weighted index confined to the top 85% of stocks listed on Russian exchanges . In other words , it only buys shares in the biggest companies . It is also expensive to use with an expense ratio of 0.62% but tight bid/ask spread that saves you money when you want to cash out . The fund has been in existence since November 2010 , posting a dismal five-year return of -53.69% but a whopping 54.5% over the last three years . Gazprom is both funds ' biggest holding , with a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ names both funds hold . Looking down the list of the US funds ( but discounting the Direxion funds ) they have all very similar profiles and returns as they all more or less invest in the same top 25 liquid big cap names . These are not index trackers , but simply buy into the leading Russian bluechips with a bias towards the names with the largest capitalisations , which are mostly from the energy and raw materials sectors . VanEck is typical and holds 26 stocks that make up a who 's who of Russian publically traded companies : From this list of names several of the companies have proven to be good investments this year . Gazprom saw its share price soar in May when the management unexpectedly doubled its dividend payout . Surgutneftegaz also put on 20% at the start of September in a day when it hinted that it may start investing some of its famous $50bn cash pile . And both Novatek and Lukoil are currently investor darlings that have seen their share price double in value in the last year @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ strongly . Although oil and gas companies dominate the market 's capitalisation , the Russian stock market is already diversified enough that a bluechip list like this also gives investors some exposure to the other sectors . The three names that stand out are internet search engine Yandex , Mobile TeleSystems ( MTS ) phone company and X5 Retail Group , Russia 's leading supermarket chain . All of these companies give an investors a piece of the emerging middle class story and a little taste of the booming " new economy " businesses as Russian retail rapidly goes online . X5 was one of the first stocks to respond to the end of the recession and saw its stock price double in 2017 as the market rerated . Yandex is one of a handful of Russian companies whose share prices have regained their pre-Crimea crisis IPO valuation . For investors that want some exposure to the smaller companies like national airline Aeroflot , the technology company Qiwi , multi-industry conglomerate AFK Sistema and mid-tier Credit Bank of Moscow , then the VanEck Vectors Russia Small-Cap ETF @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stock . Russian ETFs in the rest of the world The other ETFs are traded on a variety of exchanges where they target their local investors . For example France 's Lyxor PEA MSCI Russia IMI Select fund ( PRIS ) is traded on Euronext in Paris and ComStage Dow Jones Russia GDR ( CBMRUC30 ) is traded on half a dozen German exchanges . Both of these funds are relatively small and have about $20mn AUM . The Next Funds Russia RTS Linked fund ( 1324 ) is the biggest ETF outside of the US with $1.3bn but is only traded on the Tokyo exchange . Almost all the ETFs invest into equities , but you can make an ETF out of anything and ITI Funds has also set up one of only two Russian bond ETFs , the ITI Funds Russia-Focused USD fund ( RUSB ) that is domiciled in Luxembourg but publically traded in Moscow , London and Kazakhstan . Russian bonds have been on a tear in the last few years thanks to their winning combination of high yields and almost @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ treasury bills have been paying out between 7% and 9% over the last two years -- on a par with long-term equity investment returns . Conservative investors prefer Russia 's bonds , which are some of the best performing among emerging market bonds . The prices of Russian dollar-denominated Eurobonds are back to pre-sanction levels and despite global markets seeing almost $1.5 trillion dollars of outflows in recent trading sessions , the performances of Russian sovereign bonds have been at 12-month highs . The ITI Funds RUSB bond fund holds top Russian corporate and sovereign Eurobonds and has returned a whopping , by bond fund standards , 15.4% return in the last 12 months . Like the equities , the returns from investments into Russian bonds are supercharged by the generous coupon payments , making them even more attractive for investors . The average coupon payment adds another 5.61% to returns in dollar terms . In general investors have been heavily overweight Russian bonds for most of the last three years . Since the government could cover its entire external debt dollar for dollar in cash @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ debt since August , there is an almost zero chance of default on these high yielding obligations . " In the whole world there are only two bond ETFs focusing on Russia , " says Gleb Yakovlev , the CEO of ITI Funds . " The ITI bond ETF gives an investor exposure to Russia 's sovereign Eurobonds , but it does n't include all the bonds . Those that are going to mature in less than one and a half years are excluded as are bonds that have anything less than rating level . The bonds of Russian companies under sanction have also been excluded . " There are 16 bonds in the ITI Funds RUSB bond fund , all of which are senior debt so if there is a default then the fund is first in the queue to reclaim its money . Another difference between the equity and bond funds is the equity fund pays out dividends to its shareholders whereas the bond fund takes coupon payments and reinvests them . " Equity is more dangerous than bonds so we have a principle to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are safer so we reinvest the coupon payments , " says Yakovlev . From all these funds the ITI Funds and FinEx ETFs are the cheapest to use with an effective cost ratio of only 0.5% and the ITI Russia equity fund is the best performing having returned 29% YTD , well ahead of the average of 18% for the European group of funds . The outstanding feature of the ITI Funds RUSE equity ETF is it tracks the RTS index rather than simply buying a mix of the biggest names on the Russian stock market as most ETFs do . Launched in the spring of 2018 the ITI Funds RUSE equity fund is targeting institutional investors and has been set up to appeal to them . It is UCITS 5 qualified -- the highest standard of transparency and reliability -- and domiciled in Luxembourg to provide the best in international support and custodial services to investors . Currently the ITI Funds RUSE equity fund has $6.8mn assets under management , while the bond fund is a little bigger with $8.2mn . Still small in size @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ managers hope they will grow rapidly once they get up to $50mn in size . " There are already institutional investors in the fund but they are just dipping their toes in the water now . One of the problems in Russia is that the investors are still not very clear what an EFT is . There is a process of education to go through , " says Yakovlev .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'opt out of having their personal information sold to third parties' involves an intransitive verb 'opt' with no NP object, and it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it describes a choice or decision made by the consumers.

For further information please read our Cookie Policy . For years now , state laws have required subject organizations to provide notification to affected data subjects and , in some instances , to state agencies , consumer reporting agencies , and the media , when they experience a " breach " of certain categories of information . And a growing number of states -- including California , Colorado , Connecticut , Maryland , Massachusetts , Texas , and , most recently , New York -- have gone a step further , requiring subject organizations to develop and implement " reasonable safeguards " to secure the personal information they collect and use . With the passage of the California Consumer Privacy Act ( " CCPA " ) , California is poised to establish the next frontier in U.S. privacy and data security law . The CCPA , which is set to take effect on January 1 , 2020 , imposes on subject organizations not only the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the event of a breach , but also an obligation to develop programs to manage the sweeping suite of rights that the CCPA grants to consumers ( a category which , as we 've previously discussed , will likely include employees ( at least in certain circumstances ) ) . the sources from which that personal information was collected ( e.g. , online order histories , online surveys , tracking pixels , cookies , web beacons ) ; the categories of personal information sold to third parties ; the categories of personal information disclosed for business purposes ; the categories of third parties to whom personal information was sold or disclosed ( e.g. , tailored advertising partners , affiliates , social media websites , service providers ) ; the business or commercial purposes for which personal information was collected or sold ( e.g. , fraud prevention , marketing , improving customer experience ) ; and the " specific pieces " of personal information collected . The CCPA imposes a one-year lookback period from the time of the request , and mandates that , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the subject business provide responsive materials " in a readily usable format that allows consumers to transmit the information from one entity to another without hindrance . " Deletion Subject to certain exceptions ( e.g. , to complete to the transaction for which the personal information was collected ; to protect against malicious , deceptive , fraudulent , or illegal activity ; or to identify and repair errors that impair existing and intended functionality ) , the CCPA permits consumers to request that subject businesses delete -- and direct service providers to delete -- personal information collected about them . Opt Out Under the CCPA , consumers are empowered to opt out of the " sale " of their personal information . To facilitate consumers ' exercise of this right , subject businesses are required to provide a link titled " Do Not Sell My Personal Information " to a web page where consumers can opt out of having their personal information sold to third parties . Similarly , Nevada recently enacted a new online privacy law requiring businesses to offer consumers the right to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ information , effective October 1 , 2019 . Non-Discrimination To protect consumers who exercise their rights under the CCPA , the law generally prohibits subject businesses from charging different prices or rates to consumers , providing different services to them , or denying them goods or services , because they exercised their CCPA rights . That said , businesses are permitted to charge different prices or rates , or to provide different levels or qualities of goods or services , if those differences " reasonably relate " to the value provided to the consumer by the consumer 's data . Additionally , businesses may , under certain circumstances , offer financial incentives to consumers to entice them to permit the collection , retention , and/or sale of their information . Privacy Policy The CCPA requires subject businesses to disclose , and facilitate the exercise of , the above-discussed rights in their privacy policies . Specifically , businesses should update their existing policies , or develop new polices , to include the following elements : a description of the new rights afforded consumers under the CCPA @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ collected by the business in the preceding 12 months ; a list of the categories of personal information sold or disclosed for a business purpose in the preceding 12 months ; a description of any financial incentives for providing data or not exercising rights ( e.g. , if the company offers a discount to consumers who provide their email addresses for marketing purposes , this incentive should be disclosed in the privacy policy ) ; and two or more designated methods for submitting information requests , including a toll-free number and a website address ( if applicable ) . Private Right Of Action In contrast to many U.S. privacy and data security laws , the CCPA provides consumers a private right of action -- albeit a limited one . Specifically , the law empowers consumers to sue on their own behalves when a subject business 's failure to maintain " reasonable safeguards " results in the breach of their personal information . Notably , the definition of personal information applicable to the private right of action is narrower than the definition used throughout the rest @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ right of action under the CCPA only if the the following information is breached : an individual 's name along with his or her social security , driver 's license , or California identification card number ; account , credit card , or debit card number , in combination with a code or password that would permit access to a financial account ; or medical or health insurance information . While this private right of action does not extend to the rights discussed above -- which will be subject to agency enforcement -- even this limited private right will , if the recent flood of claims brought under the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act is any indication , result in a significant volume of class action litigation . Takeaways With the January 1 , 2020 deadline less than four months away , subject businesses need to promptly evaluate whether they are prepared to effectively navigate the expansive array of rights the CCPA extends to consumers . To do so , businesses will need to , among other things : ( a ) map the personal information about California @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( 2 ) design and document policies , procedures , and practices to manage disclosure , access , and deletion requests , and to avoid discriminatory conduct ; and ( 3 ) train their workforce members to effectively comply with those policies , procedures , and practices . One final point of note : The CCPA has been a work in progress over the last year . California 's legislative session ended on September 13th , with some final modifications to bills that would amend certain aspects of the CCPA .

Reasoning

The sentence 'Shut out of teaching?' does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks a clear NP subject and V1, and the phrase 'out of teaching' does not clearly indicate a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the sentence appears to be a question or fragment, which does not align with the construction's requirements.

I 'm a bit stuck . I 've been at home for two years to bring up my son and I 'd like to return to work . I 've signed up with a supply agency to get some experience back in schools before I find something ' proper ' but there 's a problem . My last school ( where all my teaching was good and outstanding ) are refusing to provide a reference because ' the school has changed a lot so we can not comment on Rokenswife 's teaching as it was two years ago ' . They are adamant that there is no problem with my teaching though . The supply agencies wo n't take me on without a teaching reference and I 'm now doubtful that any PPA jobs I apply for will touch me with a barge pole . Why ca n't they just comment on what I was like when I was working for them ? I 'm clueless as to what to do next . X Is the school a Local Authority one ? If it is , then it might be worth @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the school have said ( you should be able to find details of how to contact them on the council 's website ) . Any other council employee ( ie one not working in schools ) could expect to get a reference from the council 's HR department , so the fact that all the power is put in the hands of headteachers where school staff are concerned is something that really bugs me . When I worked for a Local Authority school it seemed strange to me that , anything to do with pay had to be dealt with by the council 's payroll department , any contractual issues were dealt with by their HR department ( including being notified of my original job offer ) , but the very important matter of getting a reference for another job was expected to be handled by the school itself . Although previous references for working in schools are supposed to come from headteachers for ' safeguarding reasons , ' to prevent headteachers from writing anything vindictive I strongly believe that all correspondence should be required to take place via HR @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a reference , but HR would then vet it before it was sent out ) . I find the current system for dealing with school references to be very unprofessional . Thanks - I 've contacted the deputy and she is doing my reference . I 'm just so frustrated as to why the head ' ca n't comment on my teaching ' even though it was good and outstanding . I do n't know if the head realises what a block they have created . Not in a union - this is my first venture back into teaching since having my son . X Yes I most certainly will as soon as possible . If I 'd been a useless teacher who did n't get on with anybody , I 'd understand . But like I 've said my teaching was deemed to be good/outstanding and I got along with everybody so well , it was like I 'd always been there . I feel for you . Heads are utter sh1ts when they withold references , not realising in their little bubble of success what @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ references are given promptly otherwise a HEFTY FINE and PRISON should result . I do think that there should be some obligation so that nobody is left unable to obtain a reference that they must have . I 've been lucky ; the head of my most recent school is new since I left , but when I asked about a reference he was quite happy to provide it ( presumably based on my personnel file or written by the HoD ) . Someone told me that personnel files get shredded after you 've been gone seven years . Does anyone know what the rules are on that ? I know I made a mental note when stopping for my career break that I might need to write to the school at some point to ask them to keep mine longer if I had n't returned to the classroom - especially as every head I have worked under has moved on , and my previous two HoDs were both due to retire at about the seven year point as well . My LEA told me six @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ top of all this , I 've ' fallen off ' the system in some data transfer and it 's showing the supply agency that I have n't completed my NQT year ( I flipping well did ! ) but that 's sorted now . My previous deputy will be the head come September so hopefully applying for any jobs that come up in Autumn term wo n't be a problem . It just saddens me to think that I applied for a job that could have been tailor made for me and it could all have gone to pot just because this head wo n't do a reference . So I 've missed out on that . It 's at times like these I wonder if I 'm doing the right thing ! I 'll have to get a non teaching job if things continue the way they are because we are skint ! My take on this is that unless there is a contractual right to a reference there 's not much you can do . Perhaps when people leave teaching for a break for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ point of departure . I do not see why the head could n't have written something to say that his comments were based on how RokensWife had performed while she was in post . Somehow , scienceteacha , I do n't think the legislation you would like to see would get anywhere near Royal Assent . The original plan was for me to return to teaching after maternity leave . My contract ended at my most recent school ( I was maternity cover ) but our circumstances changed . This is why I 've stayed at home for a bit longer . I 'm 99% sure nothing will come of the other job application now because the closing date was Monday and the postman has been and gone with only a gas bill . Oh well . X ' Somehow , scienceteacha , I do n't think the legislation you would like to see would get anywhere near Royal Assent . ' In which case , Vive la Republique ! PS I admit I was ... a little inebriated when I posted my former @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ think some Heads need to be a bit more accommodating with references . All you have to do once a reference is written is press ' Attach ' , select the reference and press ' Send . ' I speak with the experience a former Head 's dithering over refernces may have cost me a job in the past . It is clear that in this post ( and others ) you do not speak with the knowledge and experience of being a head . The OP has been rather vague is stating that it is the ' school ' which is not supplying the reference . RokensWife said : My last school ( where all my teaching was good and outstanding ) are refusing to provide a reference because ' the school has changed a lot so we can not comment on Rokenswife 's teaching as it was two years ago ' . Click to expand ... Is the headteracher the same ? It does not sound as if it is , although I could be wrong . As a HT I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of staff who left before I took office other than to confirm that they worked at the school for the specified period . They may claim to have been an ' outstanding ' teacher , but unless I have personal knowledge of this , I would not commit it to paper . They may claim to have been an ' outstanding ' teacher , but unless I have personal knowledge of this , I would not commit it to paper . Click to expand ... If PM is to mean anything , then a record in a school that Teacher X was ' outstanding ' ( or ' good ' or whatever ) should be enough for a new HT to confirm that he/she was at that level when a teacher ion the school . Otherwise it does n't say much for school procedures ... Thank you FolkFan , this is exactly what I thought . I also have copies of my feedback from the observations . Fortunately , another member of SLT has agreed to write a reference for me - this is for the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the other job , the closing date was Monday and I 've heard nothing so presuming I do n't have an interview . I have never been a head , my post was referring to a former Head I worked under . As stated , if a school wants a reference , I do n't see what is so hard about attaching a file and pressing Send once the reference is written . Although I will concede where it gets tricky is where schools want their own unique 88 page questionnaire grading employees filling in . A practice which ought to be banned . really do n't understand this at all ! .... the same headteacher who gave you good and outstanding is refusing to write a reference because you took a career break for two years ? He just needs to say how you were whilst you worked as a teacher there ! I would write to the dfe and ask what a person is expected to do in this situation ? schools have changed the way the way they want to pay people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for this purpose . but the basic premise of education remains the same ...... students still need skilled people who actually want to teach and do n't care about the 4 grade low pay class system for teachers and 100 point leadership scale for non teachers that the dfe and ofsted are currently trying to engineer ! |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks a V1 verb that causes the NP object to move out of or be prevented from the VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, 'shut out of' is used in a passive sense without the causative element required by the construction.

Protestors on the anti-Brexit marches have sensed an eerie absence . ' What is it ? ' I thought back in March as I stood on a soapbox to address an audience so jammed by the weight of numbers on Park Lane that it could not escape . Then it hit me . ' What the hell have they done with the left ? ' There were no Socialist Workers Party placards or George Galloways . The people who hijacked every demonstration I could remember had vanished . I saw plenty of left-wingers . On the neighbouring soapbox , a succession of socialists spoke well on the need to protect migrants and workers ' rights in a reformed Europe . But they were leftists , not the left : the left of Jeremy Corbyn , Seumas Milne , Len McCluskey , the Communist Party of Britain and Stop the War ; the left that thinks historians give Stalin a bum rap ; the left that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Iran , Russia , Hamas and Hezbollah ; the anti-European and anti-Semitic left ; the bully left ; the crank left ; the left that no amount of shame could kill . Until now . What was obvious in London is obvious everywhere -- especially so after the European Parliament election results . Brexit can destroy the left and Labour with it . Like vultures , the Liberal Democrats , Greens , Change UK and the Scottish and Welsh nationalists are swooping down to feast on , well , the remains . The Lib Dems , written off by the left as Tory collaborators , are enjoying the heartiest meal . A poll for last weekend 's Observer found that , within the space of four weeks , they had roared ahead of Labour to become the favoured party of Remain voters . They finished second in the Euro elections , and came first in London -- even in Islington , they forced Labour into second place . To date , 37 per cent of Labour 's general election vote had defected to the Lib Dems and Greens @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . The malicious among you should savour the moment . For the first time , Labour is controlled by men who denounce the Labour tradition as a sellout . They announced themselves as the true radicals who would revolutionise party and country . Now , in a pattern found in all revolutions , yesterday 's radicals are today 's conservatives , unable to control or comprehend the fury around them . Propagandists tell us Labour has no choice but to avoid hard choices . Realpolitik demands it ducks the great issue of the day . Never mind that the far left once denounced realpolitik and said , in Karl Marx 's words , that the point was to change the world , not accommodate oneself to it . Consider instead the folly of the notion that Labour can not commit to campaigning to remain in the EU . I concede that doubletalk worked for a while . In the 2017 general election , millions fell for it . But as the saying goes , ' Fool me once , shame on you .

Labour is maintaining that it must woo people who do n't vote for it , and ignore those who do . At any period of electoral history this would be a risky proposition . But when voters have never been more mobile , it shows how dated the debased Stalinist culture that so many of Labour 's key figures spent their lives imbibing has become . The central committee is supreme . Lowly comrades have no choice but to obey . Their command-and-control tactics are bound to fail , but that is not the worst of it . Mary Creagh , Anna Turley , Bridget Phillipson , Phil Wilson and many more Labour MPs in supposedly Leave-dominated @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ because it makes electoral sense , but to protect their constituents . Any kind of Brexit will hit the poorest regions of Britain hardest , while a no-deal Brexit would be catastrophic ( I hear readers dis-agreeing , but I am trying to tell you how my side thinks , not how you think . ) A Labour leadership that pretends all will be well if we get a cuddly Labour Brexit rather than a wicked Tory Brexit has succeeded only in provoking a revolt . ' I will not tell my constituents that leaving the EU will make them more prosperous , more equal or more free , ' said Bridget Phillipson . Conventional media wisdom holds that she will now lose her Sunderland South seat . But conventional media wisdom has been so wrong , so often , I 'm surprised it dare show its face in public . In her protest , incidentally , lies the answer to Corbyn and his supporters who yearn for the day when they can stop talking about Brexit and concentrate on the ' real issues ' . We 'd all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ market , however , centre-left measures will be immeasurably harder to implement , which is why I suspect so many on the right are so keen to do it . ' The single biggest dysfunction in Britain now is the disconnect between the leaders of the Labour party and Labour supporters , ' a senior figure in the anti-Brexit campaign told me . They have had enough of Corbyn telling them that a vote for Labour in 2017 was a vote for Leave and , more brazenly , that the success of the Greens and Lib Dems in this month 's local elections proved the public wanted to ' get a deal done ' . As they abandon the party in their millions , realisation is dawning on Labour politicians with an eye on the leadership that they may have made a career-threatening error . ' You do n't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows , ' sung Bob Dylan . He was right . In the Labour party , all you need is Emily Thornberry -- and she has now come out for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ doing the same ? The essential fact , too easily forgotten , is that the Labour leader and his entourage come from an odd fragment of the post-communist left . It opposed the European project as thoroughly as Farage and Johnson have done : the sole difference being that Labour 's militants believe Britain can cut itself off from Europe and build state socialism in one country while their mirror images on the right prefer small-state capitalism . Mutatis mutandis , they agree on the fundamentals . Corbyn is impressed by the 20 per cent of his Islington North constituents who signed a petition calling for the revocation of Article 50 . ( ' Signing petitions is something Jeremy understands , ' sighed one Labour source . ) Suppose in the coming days that Corbyn capitulates to electoral reality and comes out for a second vote . Labour 's position is not as dire as it seems . In Scotland , it is finished for the foreseeable future , and in Wales there are signs that Plaid Cymru could replace it as the anti-Tory alternative . But in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ creating a new party . The Greens are growing in strength but are still on the fringe , while the Liberal Democrats lack political talent and remain a rural and suburban party unable to challenge in the Labour cities . Labour Remainers are adamant that a formal shift in policy would not be enough . Just as May had to sack Nick Timothy and Fiona Hill after their disastrous advice led to the loss of the Tory majority in 2017 , no change in Corbyn 's position would be credible if his advisers remained in place . Andrew Murray , from the Communist Party of Britain , Seumas Milne , a fellow traveller , and Unite 's Karie Murphy and Len McCluskey are the ' brains ' behind Corbyn 's opposition to the EU . They would need to be shut out of decision-making or shown the door . I ca n't see Corbyn doing that . Even if he did , the inability of professed revolutionaries to understand the dynamics of a revolutionary crisis could still do for him . It is worth remembering that the People @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . If May and the wider right had not talked as if half the country were treacherous citizens of nowhere , and if supporters of Brexit had been able to agree on a common position , we would be out of the EU . But the same radicalisation that pushed the hardcore of Brexit supporters into ever more extreme positions has produced an equal and opposite reaction among their opponents . No senior politician or campaign group supported the Revoke Article 50 petition , for instance . But six million people signed it in March . The organisations around the People 's Vote campaign are on the move , too . They are not content with demanding a second referendum . They want politicians to start telling the public a truth that 's overdue a hearing : Britain 's problems are made in Westminster , not Brussels . We ca n't face them because of Brexit , and the only way to face them is to stop Brexit . Their strategists , meanwhile , are thinking ahead . The Tories , they assume , will elect Johnson or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Farage or so mimic his policies that there is no point in voting for his Brexit party . Johnson , or a Johnson clone , will not get more concessions from the EU and wo n't get a no-deal Brexit through parliament . They will have to back down or call an election . As I said , the party with the plurality of the vote ( however small ) wins the seats . The only way to stop a united Brexit right beating a divided Remainer centre-left is for the opposition parties to agree an electoral pact . This would be hard enough to arrange in the best of times . No one believes a sectarian far left that ca n't ally with critics in its own party will step aside for the Liberal Democrats and Greens . Continuing failure will reveal the Corbynistas ' inability to cope with the demands of a Britain in crisis . As their failure becomes more evident , the revolt against Labour will grow . Revolutions devour their children . How strange but fitting it is that the Brexit revolution should pick @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

Any kind of Brexit will hit the poorest regions of Britain hardest , while a no-deal Brexit would be catastrophic ( I hear readers dis-agreeing , but I am trying to tell you how my side thinks , not how you think . ) A Labour leadership that pretends all will be well if we get a cuddly Labour Brexit rather than a wicked Tory Brexit has succeeded only in provoking a revolt . ' I will not tell my constituents that leaving the EU will make them more prosperous , more equal or more free , ' said Bridget Phillipson . Conventional media wisdom holds that she will now lose her Sunderland South seat . But conventional media wisdom has been so wrong , so often , I 'm surprised it dare show its face in public . In her protest , incidentally , lies the answer to Corbyn and his supporters who yearn for the day when they can stop talking about Brexit and concentrate on the ' real issues ' . We 'd all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ market , however , centre-left measures will be immeasurably harder to implement , which is why I suspect so many on the right are so keen to do it . ' The single biggest dysfunction in Britain now is the disconnect between the leaders of the Labour party and Labour supporters , ' a senior figure in the anti-Brexit campaign told me . They have had enough of Corbyn telling them that a vote for Labour in 2017 was a vote for Leave and , more brazenly , that the success of the Greens and Lib Dems in this month 's local elections proved the public wanted to ' get a deal done ' . As they abandon the party in their millions , realisation is dawning on Labour politicians with an eye on the leadership that they may have made a career-threatening error . ' You do n't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows , ' sung Bob Dylan . He was right . In the Labour party , all you need is Emily Thornberry -- and she has now come out for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ doing the same ? The essential fact , too easily forgotten , is that the Labour leader and his entourage come from an odd fragment of the post-communist left . It opposed the European project as thoroughly as Farage and Johnson have done : the sole difference being that Labour 's militants believe Britain can cut itself off from Europe and build state socialism in one country while their mirror images on the right prefer small-state capitalism . Mutatis mutandis , they agree on the fundamentals . Corbyn is impressed by the 20 per cent of his Islington North constituents who signed a petition calling for the revocation of Article 50 . ( ' Signing petitions is something Jeremy understands , ' sighed one Labour source . ) Suppose in the coming days that Corbyn capitulates to electoral reality and comes out for a second vote . Labour 's position is not as dire as it seems . In Scotland , it is finished for the foreseeable future , and in Wales there are signs that Plaid Cymru could replace it as the anti-Tory alternative . But in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ creating a new party . The Greens are growing in strength but are still on the fringe , while the Liberal Democrats lack political talent and remain a rural and suburban party unable to challenge in the Labour cities . Labour Remainers are adamant that a formal shift in policy would not be enough . Just as May had to sack Nick Timothy and Fiona Hill after their disastrous advice led to the loss of the Tory majority in 2017 , no change in Corbyn 's position would be credible if his advisers remained in place . Andrew Murray , from the Communist Party of Britain , Seumas Milne , a fellow traveller , and Unite 's Karie Murphy and Len McCluskey are the ' brains ' behind Corbyn 's opposition to the EU . They would need to be shut out of decision-making or shown the door . I ca n't see Corbyn doing that . Even if he did , the inability of professed revolutionaries to understand the dynamics of a revolutionary crisis could still do for him . It is worth remembering that the People @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . If May and the wider right had not talked as if half the country were treacherous citizens of nowhere , and if supporters of Brexit had been able to agree on a common position , we would be out of the EU . But the same radicalisation that pushed the hardcore of Brexit supporters into ever more extreme positions has produced an equal and opposite reaction among their opponents . No senior politician or campaign group supported the Revoke Article 50 petition , for instance . But six million people signed it in March . The organisations around the People 's Vote campaign are on the move , too . They are not content with demanding a second referendum . They want politicians to start telling the public a truth that 's overdue a hearing : Britain 's problems are made in Westminster , not Brussels . We ca n't face them because of Brexit , and the only way to face them is to stop Brexit . Their strategists , meanwhile , are thinking ahead . The Tories , they assume , will elect Johnson or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Farage or so mimic his policies that there is no point in voting for his Brexit party . Johnson , or a Johnson clone , will not get more concessions from the EU and wo n't get a no-deal Brexit through parliament . They will have to back down or call an election . As I said , the party with the plurality of the vote ( however small ) wins the seats . The only way to stop a united Brexit right beating a divided Remainer centre-left is for the opposition parties to agree an electoral pact . This would be hard enough to arrange in the best of times . No one believes a sectarian far left that ca n't ally with critics in its own party will step aside for the Liberal Democrats and Greens . Continuing failure will reveal the Corbynistas ' inability to cope with the demands of a Britain in crisis . As their failure becomes more evident , the revolt against Labour will grow . Revolutions devour their children . How strange but fitting it is that the Brexit revolution should pick @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'get a real kick out of riding it' involves the verb 'get' with an NP object 'a real kick', but it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, it expresses enjoyment, which is not a characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The year 1964 was a noisy one , especially if you were in the seaside towns of Brighton or Hastings caught up in fights that famously broke out between Mods and Rockers . YouTube videos of these incidents show some nasty encounters and the police busy arresting suspects , but there is also a lot of smiling and running about -- not unlike the Spanish crowds in Pamplona that turn up to watch the running of the bulls and looking pleased they kept out of it . But an explosive era it was , quickened by the coming of America 's rock ' n ' roll , as kids seemed ready to break away from the calmness of the 50s with its easy listening music and even the sweet innocence of the early 60s when some of us grooved along to the sounds of Connie Francis , Frank Ifield and Brenda Lee . The world was ready now for The Beatles , The Rolling Stones , The Kinks , The Animals , The Yardbirds and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in having bands starting with " The " -- The Who , whose breathless 1965 hit My Generation said it all about teenagers declaring their readiness to have pop music and the freedom to express oneself cranked up a few notches . And it was The Who I found myself thinking about near the Brighton pier recently when a crowd gathered around a poster and photographs from the famous cult film Quadrophenia , which had music by The Who and whose story captured perfectly the angst of this Mods and Rockers period . Next to it was a man with a Lambretta scooter painted all over with Union Jacks . Here , I was about to discover , was not just the actual Union Jack scooter featured in the film but its owner , Roy Edwards , who was the one seen riding it as well . The Who lead singer Roger Daltrey , whose band were keen to purchase the scooter , gets up close with the iconic machine in Brighton This month marks the 40th anniversary of the 1979 UK release of Quadrophenia , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ opera . The story is about Jimmy , a Mod from London who works for the Post Office when he 's not riding his scooter with friends to Brighton for a brawl with Rockers . He gets arrested , loses the girl and finds out his idol , nicknamed Ace Face , is no more glamorous by working in a hotel . A trade secret I gleaned from Roy , who has ROY S.E. LONDON written on the scooter , is that he actually lives in Sevenoaks , Kent , but he seems to have cleverly anticipated which address would best suit the film whose cast reads like a Who 's Who of British acting and music , including Phil Daniels , Leslie Ash , Sting , Phil Davis , Toyah Willcox and Ray Winstone . Roy got to rub shoulders with all these stars , just as they got to meet a real Mod who turned up with a scooter exciting enough to steal the show , and which today remains the only original scooter from the film . I asked him how he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ friend of mine had it , a Lambretta TV200 , and he fell off one day going round a corner and it scared him , and he wanted to sell it , " Roy says . " I wanted it but was too young to ride it and my dad said I was n't allowed to buy a scooter . " So I bought it for ? 25 and took it home in bits so he would n't notice . Later , when I had it hidden in his garage , he said one day , ' You 've bought a scooter , have n't you . ' " Roy cleaned it up , and when he turned 16 rode it on the road . " I was a signwriter and painted Union Jacks on it in 1977 for the Queen 's Silver Jubilee . " Then I decided I 'd Mod it up with a fly screen , mirrors , crash bars , spotlights and a long fibreglass aerial with loads of flags on . " The scooter got loads of attention -- @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stopped and fined me for mirrors sticking out too far and my ' dangerous ' aerial that could have someone 's eye out ! " Roy riding the iconic scooter How Roy ended up in Quadrophenia was pure chance : " Some bloke down the pub was reading his newspaper and told me about an article about The Who needing Mods for the filming . " After much mickey-taking I decided to reply to the advert . Then , one day coming home from work , my mum told me the film company had phoned and wanted me to contact them . There was me thinking it was the blokes down the pub messing around . " I went to the auditioning in London , The Who loved the scooter and I was on cloud nine when they told me I was going to be in the film . " Roy says he was paid ? 350 for its use for 14 weeks of filming and that he was the main extra . " The film company wanted a group of Mods to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to get all the other lads down the pub to audition as well , and we auditioned again as a group . The director , Franc Roddam , said ' You guys are just what we need , but you 've got to have a name ' so we called ourselves the 5:15 Scooter Club . " So , much to the delight of the filmmakers , Roy had basically turned up with a gang of scooter-riding Mods ( albeit a decade or so post-1964 ) which must have added even more raw authenticity to the film . When the filming was over , Roy told me : " The Who wanted to buy the scooter . They offered me ? 1,000 then ? 2,000 ; every time I said no they offered more . It got up to ? 8-9,000 in the end . " By-standers were agreeing that he could have bought a house for that back then and even more so now it was surely even more valuable , but The Who agreed to be able to hire it if they ever needed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . " When the film was released , the 5:15 Scooter Club -- together with other extras -- were invited to the star-studded premiere in London , " Roy says . " Leicester Square was filled with scooters parked everywhere . " Since the filming , The Who contacted me about hiring the scooter again for promotional purposes . I 've had to take the scooter over to Shepperton Studios . " Then in the mid-1980s I decided that I would n't ride the scooter any more because I knew I would end up wrecking it . So since then it has been kept under wraps , but due to continued public demand the scooter has been on show at some prestigious events and locations and been hired by companies for photo shoots . " Roy 's magical scooter has graced two record album covers , done time in a motor museum as Quadropenia showpiece , been on Channel 4 , and ( with Roy ) reunited at various cast reunions , appeared with The Who and their convention in London for Roger Daltrey 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ decided to look after it .

At Harvest , Albert Radcliffe reflects on the hidden mysteries of creation Science Photo Library/Alamy A conceptual depiction of the Big Bang as an infinity torus knot , where the galaxies are moving away from each other A conceptual depiction of the Big Bang as an infinity torus knot , where the galaxies are moving away from each other THERE is more to harvest festivals than thanking God for the beauty of nature and its provision for our needs , and remembering the hungry -- although that is the focus in most churches . There is also all that science reminds us that our festivals omit . Harvest celebrates God as Creator -- and so much of nature is hidden . Take those two mysteries in today 's physics : dark energy and dark matter . At the beginning of the last century , a crucial question was whether gravity would collapse the universe . Because Einstein calculated that it could , but believed that it would n't , he added a constant to his equations to keep it stable . When , in 1929 , Edwin Hubble @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ became redundant . Then , in 1998 , Saul Perlmutter discovered that the expansion was even greater than Hubble had calculated , and the extra but unknown energy needed for this was called " dark energy " . In that case , however , galaxies should be flying even further apart ; the unknown , gravity-producing matter needed to prevent them from doing so was termed " dark matter " . This twin mystery deepened still further when it was calculated that dark energy made up 70 per cent of the universe , and dark matter 26 per cent , leaving only four per cent for ordinary , " baryonic " stuff , out of which everything else -- the beautiful cosmos , its harvests , and Church Times readers -- is made . This four per cent is less meaning more . And there is more still . According to the " standard model " of the atom , at creation -- the " Big Bang " -- matter and anti-matter should have been created in equal amounts . Electrons would then have collided with positrons @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . But , for some unknown reason , more matter was created than antimatter , with the result that this article 's writer , and readers , are made from the left-overs . Advertisement The success of science has been in uncovering these hidden workings of nature , although in doing so it demonstrates that more of the cosmos is hidden than is revealed . Isaiah 's assertion that God is a God who hides himself ( 45.15 ) means that the Creator 's creation is largely hidden , as well . To do its job , science uses mathematics -- and that also turns out to be a complicating factor in physics . For example , there is a great deal of scientific debate today on the reality of Time . Does time -- like Harvest-time -- exist ? The human experience of time as past ( which we ca n't get back to ) , present ( which is gone in an instant ) , and future ( which , for the most part , we can only guess at ) disappears at the macro-level @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , micro-quantum level . Einstein 's Special Theory of Relativity disposed of Isaac Newton 's idea that space was like a stage on which events happened , while time was an absolute , independent reality that determined their order . Instead , Einstein rid science of the occult force of gravity by combining Newton 's absolutes into the flexible relativity of " space-time " , with its new insights , such as " mass tells space-time how to bend , and space-time tells matter how to move . " QUANTUM theory , the 20th century 's other great extension in the theory of physics , explores the ultra-small aspects of creation where the clear-cut , predictable maths that we learned at school gives way to probability and randomness . Einstein did not like it . " God does n't play dice , " he wrote . At the quantum level , physical laws appear time-symmetric : the same going forwards as backwards . One solution was to suppose that we lived in a timeless cosmos called the Block Universe . The trouble was that , mathematically speaking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of relativity with quantum theory . There is , then , maths that maths can not do -- a problem that crops up in many places in modern science . So creation , and God , its Creator , are hidden ; and so , too , are we who struggle to understand them . Artificial Intelligence , with its self-improving algorithms that appear to threaten human creativity , as well as every job and profession , still leaves humankind wrestling with its own hidden side , which includes our unconscious . We -- the third hidden reality , after God , and nature -- are largely hidden from ourselves . In his book The Grand Design , written with Leonard Mlodinow , Stephen Hawking attempts to prove that , because of its laws , the universe created itself out of nothing . " Philosophy is dead , " he argues ; but he 's left with the problem of where this supposed potential for spontaneous creation came from . Atheists are good at exposing the flaws in much theism , but atheism has its own problems , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what is not known because it is hidden . At Harvest , we -- who are largely hidden from ourselves -- remember the hungry , and give thanks for God the Creator and God 's creation , so largely hidden from us . At Harvest , so much less means so much more . |

Beijing 's Daxing International Airport looks set to open ahead of schedule , as Chinese aviation authorities are expected to award the airport its operating licence . In a regular monthly update , the Civil Aviation Administration of China ( CAAC ) says it will give its formal approval on 15 September , more than two weeks ahead of Daxing 's stipulated operating date of 30 September . The airport , Beijing 's second international airport , recently completed its sixth and final round of test runs . In addition , the CAAC states that between 28 and 30 August , it carried out a final round of inspections at the airport and found 157 items that needed rectification . While the CAAC did not state what these were , it says that once these were rectified , it will approve Daxing 's operating licence .

Cirium 's schedules data indicates Ethiopian operates a daily Airbus A350 service between Addis Ababa and Beijing Capital . Malaysia Airlines also has a daily operation from its Kuala Lumpur hub , flown by an A330 . Royal Air Maroc does not currently fly to Beijing , but past media reports have indicated the carrier was looking to start services next year . Among Chinese carriers , China Southern Airlines and China Eastern Airlines will use Daxing as a new hub , while Air China will have a smaller presence there as a complement to its main hub at Beijing Capital International airport . |

Loved the nod to Tony Blair when Edmund Tully made his pitch for power " I stand her with the hand of history on my shoulder etc ... " Pretty sure if he 's been elected King he would have asked them to ' Call me Eddie ' I absolutely loved it . Sure it would have been nice if D&D had been given more episodes but you get what you 're given . Unlike many of the pathetic , entitled whiners on the internet who 've suddenly decided that it 's the worst show ever , I 've mostly enjoyed this season . The finale was very fitting and had echoes of Return of the King to it which makes sense as GRRM has previously said that GoT would have a similar ending . I thought the first half of the episode was very good , but that it fell apart after that . I 've been a big supporter of the shows this year , but literally nothing about that denouement made any sense , and there some absolute howlers in there ( I 'm thinking chiefly of the ' democracy ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ literally called A Song of Ice and Fire ) . Ultimately , a lot of the characters got endings that fans thought they ' deserved ' , which is enough for some people I guess , but it did n't feel true to the rest of the show . Except if Sansa was doing a Sturgeon she would have said , " I do n't like this arrangement but will stick with it until I-am ready to go down the independence route when I decide whether we have notes with the Queens head or a dire wolf on it " Drogon wont avenge dany . With dany dead Jon is the last targaryen , like the dragons of the past his alegiance now lies with Jon . Hence why he wasnt able to kill Jon , its actually not even the first time a targaryen would kill another and take claim if the dragons.Drogon couldnt kill Jon , but he wouldnt stay with Jon either.Also burning the Iron throne means theres more to dragons than we think , maybe drogon had magically has a collective memory of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and others.Because to be honest he hand seen the throne before whats the reasoning for him destroy it if he does nt know what it represents . Could also be drogon saying to Jon if my mummy cant have it , s ? wont you . The ones struggling with Daenerys going mad ! As the same goes , " every time a Targaryen is born , the gods flip a coin " . They must have dropped the one for King Aerys . For at first , he seemed to have dodged the family madness . But as he grew older , he began to see conspiritors everywhere and where there none he worked to create them.JAIME LANNISTER ABOUT AERYS TARGARYEN DESCENDING INTO MADNESSWho does this remind us of ? It was her advisors that stopped her burning everything ! " All hail Bran the Broken . " " My first act as King is to order you to give me a better nickname . " I 'm not sure what I felt after watching that . From my perspective it 's been a pretty poor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ last episode was quite good . It gave a lot of closure and while I did n't like all of it I thought it did a decent job of wrapping things up . A lot does n't add up , but after 20+ years of reading and viewing I 'm fairly satisfied . Worst misgiving--Find it odd Bran is King of the Six Kingdoms but hails from the Independent Kingdom of the North ? ? ! ? The first six seasons were adaptions of five completed and one pretty much completed hefty novels . Lots of texture and detail and character work for the show to draw on . The last two seasons were literally an adaption of the cliff notes of a book that is n't written yet . I 'm on board with all of the story beats . Night King is n't the main threat and taken out by Arya ? Fine , good subversion . Jaime , although he has grown as a man , ca n't stay away from Cersei and dies with her ? Go for it , no pat @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ when it comes down to the big confrontation and Dany is the real threat ? I 'm all in for that . But you have to put the work in . When Tyrion was accused of killing Joffrey , the resolution took half a season to play out . This was just , " Okay , night king 's dead , what 's next ? Move the pieces .... " And I do not care what anyone says .... Jon not being murdered by the unsullied or the Dothraki ? Jon walking down the pier while the unsullied and Dothraki just sod off on their ships ? And not one of them has a pop at him ? Not one ? Give me a f***ing break .. The Dothrakis follow whoever is strongest . Once a Khal is killed , they move on with the next leader . That much has been clear with Khal Drogo 's story . So I guess they went " Next " and moved on when Dany kicked it . Agree for the most part . But D&D were n't that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ money , more seasons , more episodes at GoT - but D&D were lured by Disney Star Wars money and it feels like they just rushed to a conclusion so they could go play with light sabres . That 's not done the series justice at al . The series would have become unfeasible past a certain point . You can only retain that many actors for so long , especially if they 're also doing Hollywood movies . Nope , Jon knows perfectly well that Sansa is a survivor who would do pretty much anything to stay alive . With unsullied , dothraki and a big dragon at Winterfell 's gates she would bend the knee like a world champion at knee bending ... So , after all that they went for the " Lord of the Rings ending " : the baddies got deaded , the inconvenient fantasy monsters and crazy warriors all evaporate and the nice sensible people all either go home and put the kettle on , or get on a boat to conveniently obscure foreign lands . I mean , it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Greyworm becomes Hand and they scorch earth from here to eternity ' I guess , but it 's a little ... anticlimactic . For a continent which has effectively experienced the bloodiest civil war imaginable and where a dozen castles and lands are empty because they're-all-dead-Dave , you wonder how long it will be until someone has a pop at Bran the Reluctant . I have not seen a single episode - but I usually keep shtum about this . My interest in this was born out of being given book no. 1 - which I did not like enough to finish . So I now wanted to know how it all ends . Game of thrones has never really been that clever or interesting . The source material is second-rate fantasy at best , with Martin excelling ( relatively , genre-wise ) at characterisation and dialogue and not much else . ( Lore building is a central skill of the genre ; he does n't do anything new or innovative . ) This was evident when the tv show had the books to work from . Even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ so-called tv ' writer ' as we have discovered . The ending was a confused , cliche-ridden mess , stuffed with bathetic attempts at humour and poignancy . It was never going to be great , for the aforementioned reasons , but it should have been a lot better than this . The story started with able-bodied men ruling and thirsting for power everywhere.It ended with a disabled man who can father no children ruling the Six Kingdoms and a strong , independent woman gaining independence for the North and ruling it as Queen in her own right . And , on top of that , their sister sailing west to find her own way in the world . Yet that seems less diverse to you ? Honestly , I give it a day at most before some people are moaning that the ending was too PC . I also expect to see laboured attempts to draw parallels between the independence of the North under their new Queen and Brexit or Scottish independence . |

Signatories can opt out of receiving the updates . Jeremy Corbyn 's plan to extend the voting age may be crucial in handing him the keys to No10 . The Office for National Statistics ( ONS ) reveals there are 88 constituencies where the number of 16 and 17-year-olds outnumber the majority of the sitting MP . Thirty-four of the seats are held by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ franchise was extended . They include Environment Secretary Theresa Villiers , who won her Chipping Barnet seat by just 353 votes in the 2017 election . The change would also make it harder for the Tories to take a swathe of Labour-held target seats , such as Stroud , Newcastle-under-Lyme , Colne Valley , Lincoln and Bishop Auckland . Share If Mr Corbyn won an extra 34 seats , it would give Labour 296 MPs -- making it the largest party and giving him the chance to become prime minister thanks to a deal with the Liberal Democrats or the SNP . Ahead of its annual conference , which begins today in Brighton , Labour has launched a fresh call for the voting age to be lowered to 16 . Cat Smith , Labour 's spokesman for voter engagement , said earlier this week : ' Our young people are a force to be reckoned with , who are taking to the street , leading the climate strikes and using their voices to influence positive change . ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and vowed last night to continue her fight to be Commons Speaker One motion put forward for consideration is for online voting to be introduced to boost the number of young voters . At the 2017 election , opposition parties pledged to give the vote to 16 and 17-year-olds but it was opposed by the Tories . A voting age of 16 has already been introduced for Scottish Parliament elections . Meanwhile , Mr Corbyn 's Momentum group is hoping to help him snatch target seats in university towns by getting students to vote there rather than at their home addresses . It has launched a website where young people can type in the postcodes and it will tell them which seat is more marginal and more likely to make a difference to Labour . It is part of a voter registration drive by Momentum which will also include Facebook adverts targeting young people and events on university campuses . More than a million people have registered to vote in the past month , including 293,000 under-25s . Harriet Harman last night @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Corbynites launched a bid to force her out of her own seat . Left-wing members of her local constituency party warned they would try to oust the ex-deputy leader as an MP unless she drops her attempt to succeed John Bercow . Activists in Camberwell and Peckham , led by a hardline socialist who stood against her in 2015 , voted on Thursday to express its ' disquiet ' at her running for the role . Miss Harman tweeted : ' I will not back down . ' Parliamentary convention states major parties will not stand against the Speaker . The constituency motion voted on said Labour needs ' the largest and strongest presence possible ' in Parliament to secure ' radical socialist policies ' . The absence of a Labour MP will ' deprive one of the most deprived constituencies in the UK ' , it warned . Advertisement |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes an event where Julen Lopetegui was removed from his coaching duties, but the phrase 'kicked out of coaching duties' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate that induces a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The 'coaching duties' is an NP complement of the preposition 'out of', not a VP[-ing] predicate.

Not many people took note of what happened to Julen Lopetegui after he was unceremoniously kicked out of coaching duties at Real Madrid early last season . On Sunday night , the disgraced coach , who is now at the helm of Sevilla FC , will have a big chance to redeem himself as his side hosts his former team at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan . It may be remembered that Lopetegui was sacked from the Spanish National Team on the eve of the 2018 FIFA World Cup after it was revealed that he had accepted a job with Real Madrid . The Spaniard 's woes continued after he was also sacked by Real Madrid just two months into the 2018/19 season . He was axed after only managing to take the team to 9th position on the league table , and after suffering a 5-1 defeat at El Clasico . Needless to say , his reputation was in shambles . On Sunday , Lopetegui has the opportunity to redeem himself in front of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ team , Sevilla FC , will be playing against Zinedine Zidane 's Real Madrid . Despite the massive significance of this match , Lopetegui refuses to admit that he is out for revenge . However , he did take a dig at his former club by speaking about his plans to stay much longer at Sevilla . " There is no room for extra motivation when you coach Sevilla , something I can hopefully do for many years , " he said . Lopetegui insists that taking three points and potentially the lead in the La Liga table is all that matters . " There are three points at stake and that is enough motivation , even if we know the impact of facing Real Madrid , " he said , in a pre-match press conference . Incidentally , Sevilla is currently ahead of Real Madrid on the a Liga table . They are sitting in second place , just behind Granada , who have one extra match under their belt . Sevilla could take top spot if they win on Sunday . Meanwhile , Real Madrid @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ two of their first four matches . Zidane 's position at Real Madrid is also starting to look precarious , after the team 's dismal performances in the past several weeks . Both teams will have a lot to prove and with top spot in La Liga at stake , there will be a lot to play for . It remains to be seen which coach , Lopetegui or Zidane , will be able to save their reputation . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'sold out of' followed by a noun phrase 'fast-selling lines', which does not involve a VP[-ing] predicate. Additionally, there is no movement/extraction or prevention interpretation present in the sentence.

Marks & Spencer ( LSE : MKS ) may be the victim of the latest FTSE 100 reshuffle but , for the moment , it 's still clinging on by its fingernails . That 'll change in the next few weeks when the fashion giant falls into the FTSE 250 , a chastening experience for a business that 's been a stalwart of Britain 's premier share index since its inception in 1984 . Did I say fashion giant ? ' Relic ' is perhaps more of an apt description for this once-loved shopping institution . A 34% share price slump since the start of May alone has prompted the retailer 's demotion and I 'm tipping it to keep sliding as consumers continue giving its clothing lines the cold shoulder . It 's not just that Marks & Spencer 's troubles are confined to claims its clothing is over-priced and off-trend . Though , of course , this continues to cause the company huge stress -- latest financials showed like-for-like sales at its clothing and homewares division drop 1.6% in the 12 months to March . It 's also not just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ UK retail sector , a problem that 's getting worse amid ongoing Brexit uncertainty . Most recent Office for National Statistics data disappointed and showed retail sales fall 0.2% in August . It 's that the company 's management , after years of trying and countless aborted attempts , still has n't got a clue as to how to bring its flagging fashion arm back to life . Jill McDonald was poached from Halfords in 2017 to oversee a revolution , but brought very little to the party before she was dismissed in July . Even when M&S happened upon a popular product line , it was n't able to capitalise because of poor stock control . In the last fiscal year , the Footsie firm noted " encouraging progress in quarter three was constrained by weak availability in quarter four as we sold out of fast-selling lines and experienced supply issues . " And these issues will take some time to solve as well . Chief executive Steve Rowe has vowed to take day-to-day control of the division which he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ But those hoping it will prove to be a much-needed silver bullet for this flagging business are likely to be disappointed . He failed to institute significant change in his first stint at the unit , and market conditions have worsened since then as competition has increased and consumer spending has shrunk . Meanwhile , the line of people leaving M&S continues to grow , the latest of which , chief financial officer Humphrey Singer , announced his exit on Friday . Speculation is now growing as to whether Rowe could be next to head for the exit . Now Marks & Spencer 's cheap -- it currently trades on a forward P/E ratio below 10 times -- while it boasts a monster 6.6% corresponding dividend yield too . This is a reflection of the company 's high-risk profile , however , and the probability that earnings will keep skidding beyond the anticipated 17% drop City analysts have marked for fiscal 2020 .

Reasoning

The sentence follows the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction: NP subject ('They') + V1 ('weasel') + NP object ('their way') + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('paying any kind of severance'). It also fits the prevention interpretation, where the subject is preventing the object from achieving the action described by the VP2[-ing] predicate. Additionally, the use of 'their way' as a possessive pronoun in the NP object is coreferential with the subject, which is an atypical but acceptable form of the construction as described in the sixth property.

For further information please read our Cookie Policy . A recent arbitration decision out of Nova Scotia , Canada , Acadia University v. Acadia University Faculty Association , 2019 CanLII 47957 ( ON LA ) , is a cautionary tale for employees who receive settlements upon termination . The decision emphasizes that if an employee does not respect a promise to keep the terms of a settlement strictly confidential , the employer may not be required to honour its payment obligation under the settlement agreement . Furthermore , this decision is a warning to employees who are active on social media that their social media use post-settlement may be monitored by the employer , or brought to the employer 's attention . Any statements made by employees on social media in breach of the terms of a settlement can seriously jeopardize their right to be paid pursuant to a settlement agreement . Background Acadia University terminated the employment of a tenured professor for cause @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the professor 's termination . A voluntary mediation was convened and the grievance was resolved . Minutes of Settlement , executed by the university , the Faculty Association , and the professor , contained the following terms : A statement providing that the grievance was resolved " without any admission of liability or culpability by any of the parties . " An agreement " to keep the terms of these Minutes strictly confidential except as required by law or to receive legal or financial advice . " An undertaking that , " If asked , the parties will indicate that the matters in dispute proceeded to mediation and were resolved , and they will confine their remarks to this statement . Stated somewhat differently , it is an absolute condition of these Minutes that no term of these Minutes will be publicly disclosed . " A term providing for the payment of a specified amount . Almost immediately after executing the Settlement Agreement , the professor took to Twitter where he made the following statements in this order : " Vindicated former professor ! @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " When one of the professor 's followers tweeted , " congrats Rick ! Hope you got a nice sum monz " , the professor replied , " All I will say is that I left with a big grin on my face . " " Because I got the vindication that I was seeking . In other words , I have left the university on my term , as opposed to the administration 's or union 's terms . The NDA that I was required to sign by law is not for my protection . " Faculty Association counsel immediately advised the professor to remove his online references to having been vindicated . He did not do so . The matter then proceeded to a conference call hearing after which the professor was directed to : Immediately delete the tweets from his Twitter account , Refrain from using such terms in the future , and Strictly comply with the Minutes of Settlement about what he can , and can not say , about the resolution of this matter . In spite of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " University administrators are ruthless towards non-leftist profs who exercise their rights to academic freedom & dissent . They also have labour law on their side that allows them to fire tenured profs without cause and to weasel their way out of paying any kind of severance " . Shortly thereafter the professor advised that he deleted the tweets that referred to him as having been " vindicated , " yet continued to make references to " severance pay . " In addition , he wrote to the President of the university threatening to release the Minutes to the media unless certain conditions were met . The university argued that it should not be required to make any payment to the professor because of his repeated breaches of the Minutes . The Faculty Association did not take a position . Arbitrator 's Decision The arbitrator acknowledged that by referring to vindication and repeatedly referring to a payment provision and severance pay the professor violated the Minutes . In arriving at his decision to release the employer from its obligation to honour the payment provision in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ All of the provisions of the Minutes were carefully and comprehensively reviewed with the professor by each of the counsel who were present before the professor signed them . The Minutes provided that the professor could not disclose any of the terms of the Minutes , including the payment provision , and could only say that the matters had been resolved . The professor was otherwise completely free to speak and write about his experiences at the university . The professor 's tweets provide ample evidence of repeated breaches of his promise of confidentiality even after he was directed to cease . " Quite clearly the professor is attempting to suggest by use of the term vindicated and by his repeated reference to ' severance ' that there was some kind of an acknowledgment of University wrongdoing when that was specifically not the case ( and likewise , there was no finding of wrongdoing by the professor ) " . " Settlements in labour law are sacrosanct ... " Bottom Line for Employers Acadia serves as a reminder of how important it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in their settlement agreements . These provisions should clearly set out the consequences of a breach in order to eliminate any uncertainty . Acadia also provides comfort to employers that arbitrators and judges are unlikely to turn a blind eye when an employee violates a promise to maintain the confidentiality of the terms of a settlement agreement . As the arbitrator in Acadia noted , settlement agreements in the labour context are " sacrosanct , " generally because their disclosure may have the effect of encouraging other grievances , including those without substance . The same holds true in the employment context where the disclosure of the terms of settlements may have the effect of encouraging other actions , including those without merit . Accordingly , adjudicators will be likely to ensure that employees who disclose the terms of a settlement agreement , whether accurately or inaccurately , despite the existence of a confidentiality provision , are met with a harsh consequence , such as the loss of the payment they were entitled to receive . Employees who fail to cease making such disclosures even after being warned to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'getting the best out of qualifying', where 'qualifying' is a noun rather than a VP[-ing] predicate, and there is no NP object that functions as a causee. Additionally, it does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation.

How did the Red Bull suddenly become the fastest car in the field ? McLaren was faster 10 times , and about equal 3 times , not to mention other teams at times . Here you go trying to downplay the pace of the RB8 . Did you forget about Singapore , Korea , Japan & India ? Did you not see the pace of the RB8 coming through the field in AD ? I 'm not saying the RB8 was head & shoulders above the McLaren because at times the MP4-27 was surely the quickest car in the field but at no point after the summer break other than Monza was the F2012 quicker than the RB8 . That 's what matters . This thread is n't about the outright fastest . It 's about whether or not Fernando " choked " because he lost to a quicker car . No he did n't " choke " . It 's the superb reliability of the F2012 that kept Fer in contention throughout the year . Reliability , some good driving & some good luck is what kept him in it . However when your rivals @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ updates that do n't work as they should , well that tells the story . Ferrari improved their car up until the summer break , Germany at the latest . RB & McLaren brought updates until the last races that worked . Other than Monza the F2012 was n't capable of winning a race on pace ( like much of the season ) whereas the RB & McLaren were capable . It 's widely recognized in the paddock that Ferrari did n't really improve the car after summer so why there is a question about Alonso " choking " is beyond me . With regards to the relative strength of the cars , it 's clear to me that the Ferrari was not a strong qualifying car but was competitive in the races ( within a couple of tenths most of the time ) . It could , at least partially be because of Alonso . Not so many memorable qualifying efforts in his career , but always gets his chances in the races . I have no doubt that Lewis or Vettel would have occupied more top-3 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ferrari was the most underrated car of the season . Sure , it started a dog but alonso had super luck to get massive points ( and a win in rain ) , but at a point in the season it was even the pace-setter . And like you say , the faster starting car by a margin.Regarding the choking , if you see massa outperforming alonso by a clear margin in the last two races , you could perfectly argue that yes , he got shaken at the end and did nt extract everything from the car , both in qualy and race trim . Nice Add to that Alonso 's slight qualifying handicap , the recipe is complete . Alonso and Ferrari lost the 2012 championship . If you can agree that Ferrari was at the most 3rd fastest in race trim which is really a consensus ( ask any stat guru here who have compiled data ) , while being 4th fastest in qualifying ; its just another of those things Alonso fans make up to glorify him . If Alonso is given @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it is only fair to state that Alonso failed to utilize the Ferrari 's true potential in the last races of the season in qualifying , which directly affected him not winning one of the last 4 races . All of a sudden , Massa looked like Ferrari 's No.1 performer Monza onwards , so much so that in Brazil ... He was comfortably beating Alonso in trecherous condition ... While Alonso was all over the shop . Hulkenberg , in a Force India , left him in trailing in his spray . The biggest glare was Abu Dhabi , where Alonso & Ferrari got outperformed by a Lotus throughout the race . Alonso really should have won that race & collected the extra 7 points for the championship . Here was a real case when a driver managed to outperform his car with sheer determination and will to win- over a mega , string of fastest lap setting Ferrari . He even got massive help from the safety car , but the Lotus driver simply blew him away at the restart . A heavily updated Ferrari @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ badly by lack of resourses was really when Alonso lost the Championship . michael very rarely had a slower car for a whole season when he fought for championships ... yeah , Michael never had a slower car fighting against the mighty Newey cars ( 97,98 ) . oh wait he never shouted out loud he is fighting against a superior machine like Alonso did . I would rate both seasons higher than Alonso 2012 campaign So what ? The fact remains that there were several seasons at Ferrari where he did n't have the best car , but never resorted to the superhero in a crap car whining that Fred came out with this year . What I meant was that there was little point in blaming the team , when he was getting a world championship team behind him . Ferrari in 2000 was what Benetton would have been had everyone stayed put . And one wonders how much Bernardo Ecclepietri had in manipulating F1 's top brand into the leading position . My biggest annoyance with threads like this is that mistakes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the mistake itself . For example , Vettel crashed at both Abu Dhabi and Brazil but got away with it . Had those incidents ended his race ( particularly Brazil ) then Vettel would be the one under scrutiny for choking . The error from the driver would have been the exact same but the perception of that error different . This applies to all drivers and all mistakes . You make a good point , but I am not sure whether those two incidents are the best examples , since both were mostly judged to be racing incidents . What i do nt like is Alonso saying he had the perfect season.How can it be perfect if he did nt win the WDC , surely u can always do better , especially since u came second . I wouldnt say he choked , but he certainly was far from perfect.He had the most luck and the most help from his team mate out of all the drivers , sure his car wasnt the best but none of this years cars were dominant . Vettel is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that i have seen.Every other driver in the paddock should be watching over their shoulder as Vettel is the man of the moment.Alonso did nt choke but he certainly felt Vettels pressure and was beaten by the better man . It was Alonso who should have driven aggressively and take risks . But it was him who played it very cautious , drove carefully to the point of even his teammate had to let him pass . Reminded one of Abu Dhabi 2010 when he did not even try an ovetaking attempt . Alonso always deferrs and gets very cautios in high pressure situation when he is actually supposed to attack . Alonso was far ahead of what was logically possible at the summer break . The results were not given by a great car , just by great performances of the driver , and the fact that his ' real ' title rivals all messed up at some races , giving him all the advantage . Then came a period where Alonso had lesser luck ( something that happens to every driver over 20 races ... ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ top in that period . That 's what killed his championship off . Nothing else . He did n't choke , the guy has battled for so many championships already , he 's not going to choke If Alonso is given credit for the results in the season beginning .... Then it is only fair to state that Alonso failed to utilize the Ferrari 's true potential in the last races of the season in qualifying , which directly affected him not winning one of the last 4 races . All of a sudden , Massa looked like Ferrari 's No.1 performer Monza onwards , so much so that in Brazil ... He was comfortably beating Alonso in trecherous condition ... While Alonso was all over the shop . Hulkenberg , in a Force India , left him in trailing in his spray .

Here was a real case when @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and will to win- over a mega , string of fastest lap setting Ferrari . He even got massive help from the safety car , but the Lotus driver simply blew him away at the restart . A heavily updated Ferrari with gazzilons of dollars getting beaten by a team hit badly by lack of resourses was really when Alonso lost the Championship . I agree with you about Abu Dhabi . Alonso I think was demoralized by the outcome of that race : he was unable to catch Raikkonen even though he had a better car and Vettel in spite of starting at the back managed to put himself on the podium and limited the damage to a few points to Alonso 's disbelief . Also I think that Alonso by the season 's end had physically run out of steam , he looked exhausted after AD while Vettel and Raikkonen appeared ready to do it all again . I do n't think ' choke ' is the right term but perhaps he was just a bit tired and worn down by the long season where @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Alonso was far ahead of what was logically possible at the summer break . That makes no sense . The results were not given by a great car , just by great performances of the driver , and the fact that his ' real ' title rivals all messed up at some races , giving him all the advantage . And Alonso messed up by not getting the most out of the car down the stretch . As Massa comprehensively demonstrated , the Ferrari was capable of earning Alonso four more points in the final races . Then came a period where Alonso had lesser luck ( something that happens to every driver over 20 races ... ) and title favorites Vettel / Red Bull came back on top in that period . That 's what killed his championship off . Nothing else . He drove the balls off that Ferrari in every race . I ca n't think of a race where he finished and people could suggest he had an average race or a poor race . He moved forward from his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the end in the hat room he looked exhausted , pouring water over his head etc while Vettel and Button etc looked like they 'd come back from a casual Sunday afternoon drive in the countryside . Yes Alonso is a little older but he is n't unfit .. I think it was more because of the effort he had applied during those races that the others did not . As for the Massa thing at the end of the year .. I wonder if that was more to do with the direction Ferrari went with setup on Alonso 's car , trying to compensate for their lack of one lap qualifying pace and giving Fernando a car he could work with in the races . They perhaps over compensated and hindered him in qualifying when they perhaps did not need to ( As Massa showed in the races ) . But that 's just my own theory . But " choke " ? Absolutely not . Let 's not forget who had the messy race in Brazil and was lucky to finish . I agree @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ demoralized by the outcome of that race : he was unable to catch Raikkonen even though he had a better car and Vettel in spite of starting at the back managed to put himself on the podium and limited the damage to a few points to Alonso 's disbelief .

I do n't think ' choke ' is the right term but perhaps he was just a bit tired and worn down by the long season where he had carried the weight for Ferrari by himself . Well , then we can safely assume that the weight & weariness on Vettel must have been enormous , considering he basically had to hunt down a 42 Poins defecit , and really had to drive his balls out in the final 10 races to eventually triump . Long Season weariness simply can not be used as an excuse for performance drop off , especially amongst @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ race season was for everyone , so one has to assume all drivers were equally weary by the end of it all , except Grosjean who had a nice holiday in Italy to the envy of the entire grid who had to slug it out for one extra weekend . Choke is not the word , I agree . Lack of Mental strenght to carry on when the opposition is hammering you ( 4 wins in a row ) ... Maybe so . As is Vettel as a competitor was n't enough , Alonso kinda doomed his own brains by adding " Newey " to his list of " enemies " fighting in the sea & mountains . It was unnecessary by any standards . He drove the balls off that Ferrari in every race . I ca n't think of a race where he finished and people could suggest he had an average race or a poor race .

You can blame set-up or whatever , but there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ maligned Massa made that car look good enough in the last few races to get those extra 4 points ; the pace was potentially there . As for Vettel being ' messy ' ; let 's not forget who overcame numerous setbacks to get the job done , while Alonso was unable to capitalise . Was Fred the better driver over the year ? Probably , but only those to wish to slip inside his pants buy the idea that he was an untouchable god at every race while Vettel was just lucky to be in a Newey rocket . He drove the balls off that Ferrari in every race . I ca n't think of a race where he finished and people could suggest he had an average race or a poor race .

If you believe Alonso squeezed everything out of the car in qualifying - he did great if you believe otherwise he gained his lost positions back in the race . There is no questions about his race craft .

Massa had massive problems at the beginning of the season but was really no measuring stick of the performance level of the ferrari . People tend to think Alonso drove the wheels of the Ferrari . We do n't know @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Both are known to be the best qualifiers of the top drivers and Alonso was never special in qualifying .

We do n't know how Fernando or Lewis would have performed either in the Red Bull . How do you know that Fernando did n't squeeze everything out in qualifying ? Maybe he is n't the greatest @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ seasons , he is n't very far off from the qualifying gurus given the equipment . Qualified 12 times in second row or better in 2010 , enough ? Funny that Massa is n't the yard stick , then when he starts to match Alonso , he is the yard stick . We do n't know how Fernando or Lewis would have performed either in the Red Bull . How do you know that Fernando did n't squeeze everything out in qualifying ? Maybe he is n't the greatest qualifier but look at his history in qualifying from other seasons , he is n't very far off from the qualifying gurus given the equipment . Qualified 12 times in second row or better in 2010 , enough ? Ferrari 2010 development started mid-season in 2009 ! ! All resources & technical brains were taken away from that car & put into Lord Alonso 's future car with the idea being Alonso should get the best equipment upon his arrival at the expense of Kimi Raikkonen 's Ferrari . All Kimi was left with to wage @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to remotely stand a chance of fighting the Brawns , RBR & a mega developing Mclaren ... & came out triumpant by scoring Maximum points along with Hamilton Hungary onwards . To imply that Ferrari in 2010 was poor is pretty lame . Even so , it seemed like Alonso managed to take a Race winning car at season start ( Bahrain 1-2 ) backwards with his feedback & setup ideas . How else can it be , when the whole team & gazzilions of dollars is spent purposely for 1 man alone ... And he still fails 3 years in a row . Im not implying 2010 car was poor , im saying he historically isnt a bad qualifier as some make him out to be this season . ------------ I made a statistic of Vettel versus Alonso . Its the no of times Vettel was faster than Alonso . Example 46-12 means Vettel put in 46 laps that were faster than Alonso 's . Have n't gone completely into it . Alonso was completely dominating in Spanish GP . Whereas Vettel was completely dominant @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Usa . The numbers in brackets show finish positions . Then they had to switch to Bridgestones taking away certain advantages that they had built up over their initial career . Massa held the advantage against Kimi on saturdays as he continued his understanding of the bridgestones shod Ferrari . Meanwhile , Hamilton got the better off Alonso in the same year when he switched to Mclaren & took some time to make them work to his liking relates to losing all his setup data left behind at Renault . Hamilton seemed to get on it from the start . But what both have proved in 2012 is that they have deliberately gone a bit conservative since that experience , & have chosen to play their set-ups for maximum benefit for the race with the Pirelli tyres . Grosjean got slower than Kimi on race day in all races , except Valencia maybe . So saturdays , under no pressure , certqin drivers can do a fast lap , but they lack Raceday skills when startegy needs to be executed as per plan . Massa @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ against Raikkonen in 2008 Massa did not have the skills to match Kimi 's race pace as can be ascertained with KR record equalling 10 fastest laps . Alonso & Raikkonen both got badly hampered in their Race Strategies 2007 onwards thanks to an era where overtaking became a luxury . As 2012 has proven again , both champions are awesome in the race , and DRS & Kers have handed some advantage back to drivers who have great race crafts . I do n't think it 'll take long for Kimi to get Saturdays car ready next year with his comeback year now done and dusted . Alonso seems to have figured it out too , but would really be a touch annoyed with the last 4 races when Massa seems to gain some extra pace out of nowhere . 2013 is citical year for Alonso , & he must not slack with a couple of bad races in the season beginning & handing any advantage back to Massa . Should be interesting . I was almost forgeting Canada . Alonso and Ferrari did @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ been higher . As for Alonso not being a good qualifyer it 's nonsense : Look at his stats . Maybe , just maybe , a 0,1 behind Vettel and Hamilton but that 's it , he 's easily the 3 rd best right now . In 2012 last races he did n't do brilliantly , granted , specialy at Abu Dabhi and USA . How do you know that Fernando did n't squeeze everything out in qualifying ? I do believe that Pat Fry alluded to it on the morning following the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix . Perhaps someone here can provide the details but when Fry - on the Monday following Abu Dhabi - suggested that Fernando was n't getting the best out of qualifying , Nando reportedly had a minor meltdown . It was reported it in the Latin languages media and forum members on Autosport.com picked up on it . Alonso continued to down play the car 's qualifying capability " ... the car is only capable of 8th ... " or somesuch . But , then , Fry was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up on the grid at Austin ( only to be grid dropped ) and Interlagos ( where he was again the faster Ferrari driver and drove circles around Webber ) . While the title uses an inappropriately emotive term , the question for this thread is nevertheless whether Alonso failed to perform to his best possible standard because the pressure got to him . Yes . Looks like it . Especially in light of Pat Fry 's observation . Lucky for the Englishman , Massa proved him right . It 's gotten to the point that no one is allowed to criticize Nando for some sort of fear of raising his ire or pissing him off . Yet Ferrari have had no problem ditching drivers who 've been far more successful : Schumacher , Prost , Lauda come to mind . Even with Raikkonen they were 3 for 6 in terms of World Championships . Alonso 's been there a full 3 seasons with Ferrari getting a huge lead start for 2010 when they stopped development on the F60 mid-way through 2009 . Yet @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the 2nd driver . If Alonso does n't deliver , Ferrari will ditch him because Spain and it 's banks ( like Santander ) are going to go down the bail-out route and Santander wo n't be the be-all-end-all for Ferrari for ever . I can see Ferrari dumping Alonso for Vettel sooner than 2016 if Nando fails to deliver and continues to undervalue the over-all quality of the Ferraris . The other thing that is in poor order was Alonso blaming Kimi for Suzuka T1 . " ... I do n't know what Kimi 's plan was for the first corner/Kimi should have lifted ... " or somesuch Even so it does not label Alonso as a poor qualifyer . In factIn fact IMO he was only bested this year by Hamilton . Vettel was beated by Webber , remember ? Webber has always been a qualifying specialist . Button had n't had a Pole since Monaco in 2009 until he took Pole at Spa this year . Barrichello and Hamilton were able to extract Poles from Brawns and McLarens from post-Monaco @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of it . A sure sign that Button is n't great at singular lap speed . Even so it does not label Alonso as a poor qualifyer . In fact IMO he was only bested this year by Hamilton . Vettel was beated by Webber , remember ? Alonso was bested by Hamilton 8:9 in 2007 . He was bested by Trulli 7:8 in 2004 ( tied 8:8 in 2003 ) . Vettel 's ' closest call ' was beating Webber by ' only ' 11:9 this year , but still has bested Webber by 54:21 overall ( 72% ) . Hamilton 's ' closest call ' was Alonso , and has beaten Button with 44:14 overall ( 75.9% ) . |

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. It lacks an NP object and does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'trading' is a gerund functioning as the object of the preposition 'out of', similar to the examples in (7a) and (7b).

Another week of hopeless trading ... my balance is getting smaller and smaller . This TA stuff just does n't seem to work on a reliable or consistent basis . TA is just a tool , it 's not trading , some tools might aid you but will never be the determining factor as to whether you will be or are successful or not .

I once saw a man who looked to be painting a very nice picture but it must have been a fake because when I asked him how he did it he just gave me a blank look . I expect there are some real painters out there somewhere but they probably went to art college or something . Another week of hopeless trading ... my balance is getting smaller and smaller .

His narrative is in short : Do n't trust any trading educators which are n't or have n't been professional traders , because they do n't know how the industry works . Also do n't trust any brokers by default , cause all they want is your money . With him having been a professional trader , this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ says about how the retail trading industry works : A broker has 4 revenue streams : Spread Commission Capitalising on getting credit facilities cheaper from the investment banks than they lend it to their retail clients ( e.g. overnight holding fees ) Taking the other side of your trades as they know 90% of retail traders lose money , so easy money to bet against them . They say brokers usually rate their clients into two buckets ( with an algorithm ) , where 90% are in bucket A , where trades are un-hedged and the broker takes the other side of the trade . And bucket B , where trades are hedged , so the broker does n't have any exposure on the traders trade . If the trader wins , they win , if the trader loses , they lose . Broker is break-even every time , but makes still money on the other 3 revenue streams . Only 10% of traders land in bucket B. Now that we understand the 4 revenue streams , he also says , there is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ way , so that these 4 revenue streams are maximised . This means , they want retail traders to trade as many times as possible ( paying spread and/or commission every time they trade ) , with as highest volume as possible ( higher volume , higher credit fees ) and consequently be unprofitable , so that they can take the other side of their trades to complete their 4 revenue streams . In order to achieve creating and socialising this narrative , they work with " trading educators " , like all the guides and gurus on youtube and instagram to help them push this narrative . The gurus obviously get paid by the brokers for this . All in all there 's a strong conflict of interest between the educators and the retail traders and also between the brokers and the retail traders . Brokers want to make money , educators get paid by the brokers and retail traders need to finance the whole party . Investment banks are behind this system ( via giving the brokers cheap credit facilities ) , because they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out of trades . He also says , that " day-trading " is not really a thing with professional traders . What they do , is managing portfolios of about 10-20 positions at a time , which are chosen 80% of fundamental reasons and only 20% technical . They take positions days , weeks or month in advance when the market is quiet and then use the volume spikes provide by retail traders , when news are being released for example , to get out of their positions at a favourable price . My own thoughts below If this is true what he says , and it sounds sensible to me , what is the best way to make money as a retail client then and beat the system ? Trade as little as possible to minimise the revenue stream the broker makes with you . Do n't take credit facilities from the broker . Instead of having 90% of your margin requirements tied up in 1 position , have 10-20 positions at a time , which are chosen based on underlying fundamentals . Ultimately , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to hedge against you and taking the other side of your trades becomes unprofitable for them . The key question is now , how to get on news and relevant information before they happen in order to take these trades in advance and then get out when the news are released to the public ? If we take the recent spike in oil price as an example , caused by these attacks on Saudi Arabian Oil Facilities . Surely some big investment banks and hedge funds made big money on this oil price spike . They knew before that an attack like that is going to happen eventually . They might even play a part in it and provide funds to help facilitate such an attack . The investment banks do n't provide funds directly to terror organisations , but provide them to various governments , who then uses those funds to provide weapons , technology or else to various terror organisations . Once an organisation is found who is willing to do the attack on the oil facilities , the professional traders take their positions , long @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the attack happens . News are being released . Retail traders around the world jump on the news . Oil price spikes up . Professional Traders use the volume provided by retail traders to get out of their positions . Job done . Without having a couple of billions in the bank to fund global terror , is there any other way how we retail traders can participate in trades like this ? If anyone has any ideas , would love to hear more . This is quite an old video now and has been posted and discussed on the forum before . Worth noting a couple of points , firstly that he smears all educators in what is basically the introduction and launch of his own very expensive education academy and secondly he smears all brokers without reference to any regulation authority as if they all operated out of Israel or some third world swamp .

I still ca n't figure this PRT out lol . Can someone please tell me how to place a trade with Stops @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cost me to place it on the Demo ? Retail traders even collectively can hardly move a market , a spike up is caused by large traders getting in early and buying because they get their news first via subscription news feeds , the spike is helped along by sellers pulling their sell orders ahead of the buying because they think they can sell at a higher price later . Once a target is hit the pullback after a spike is profit taking but if there are only a limited number of sellers the pullback will stall and buyers will look to reload pushing price up for a second leg . As @nit2wynit points out this is the best opportunity for retail to jump aboard . This wave ( zig zag ) pattern repeats until there are enough sellers to turn a pullback into a bigger reversal . there must be a pretty solid correlation coefficiency between a few on this thread and conspiracy theorists . That would be me .... though they 're not CT 's . What @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or coming true . However , If you 're suggesting that trading is NOT and conspiracy based upon markets , numbers and statistics then ........ It 's important to realise that financial institutions and the likes of Insurance companies for Instance , Conspire to create wealth through the perversion of Fear , Loss , Scarcity and Greed . To assume it 's is ONLY a Theory is a bit naive . dmedin , no way should you be trading real money until you have working system that you have either back tested or used for at least 100 trades . You then have to develop a trading plan for your system to make it as mechanical as possible . This hopefully takes the emotion out of trading . Initially I would concentrate on the longer time frames to filter out as much noise as possible . You have to record all of your trades , winners and losers , so you can analyse your performance ( an excel spreadsheet ) and hopefully fine tune your trading . And then you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ get rich quick process . So if it is true what he says and the professionals have about 10-20 positions and holding them for 1-3 month each , let 's do this though experiment . 10 Positions held for 20 days each on average . That 's half a trade per day , meaning one day you open a new position , the next day you might close one and the next day you might not do anything at all . If this is the reality - what are professional traders doing all day long in their 16 hour days ? ? ? You ca n't tell me they are doing analysis for 15h and 50 minutes and then taking a position before they call it a day ? As a retail trader trading the FTSE 100 at the moment , I 'm looking to make 20 points per day . Trading with let 's say ? 10k , that would give buying power to trade a quantity of 25 , meaning 20 points are ? 500 per day @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ trading days ) this would be ? 10k profits . Subtracting 1 losing day per week we end up at ? 6k profits on the month . Now thinking about the professional trading style according to Anton Kreil. 10 Positions , means equity per position is ? 1000 on a ? 10k account . With 20% margin requirements , we 're looking at exposure of ? 5k per position . In order now to make ? 6k profit per month to align with the retail trading approach above , we would need to find equities which make 12% movements in a given month . ( 12% * ? 5k = ? 600 ; ? 600 * 10 positions = ? 6k ) . Of course you wo n't be able to be right 100% of the time , so you should more look for 20% potential movements and have a few losses or beak-evens amongst your positions . I guess it all comes down to this question now : Is it more probable to capture 20 points out of an Index like the FTSE 100 per day @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ week losing 20 points or is it more probable to find 10 equities per month which make 20% movements on that month ? Institutional traders have absolutely no interest in retail traders , the reason being , taking FX as an example , the bank for international settlement data tells us that the top 10 investment banks alone account for 2/3 of total fx trade volume while retail traders account for just 3.5% . The sharks feed off each other , retail traders are not even a lite snack . And as for a brokers business model that is designed to put it 's clients out of business as soon as possible is only possible if operated by con men from a country with non-existent regulation . Anton Kreil 's tactic is to lay waste current perception of education , day trading and brokers in order to make room for his new Academy that educates traders to day trade via brokers . This means , they want retail traders to trade @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ every time they trade ) , with as highest volume as possible ( higher volume , higher credit fees ) and consequently be unprofitable , so that they can take the other side of their trades to complete their 4 revenue streams . As far as trading as often as possible , all brokers want that - even ' respectable ' ones that only deal in buying and selling of ' respectable ' shares . I suppose they want us to be unprofitable because our money serves them better when it 's in their account rather than ours , even if it means we ca n't trade with them any more . Spread bets and CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage . 76% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading spread bets and CFDs with this provider . You should consider whether you understand how spread bets and CFDs work , and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money . Professional clients can lose more than they deposit . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ETFs and ETCs bought through a share dealing account , a stocks and shares ISA or a SIPP can fall as well as rise , which could mean getting back less than you originally put in .

Reasoning
×
The sentence follows the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate ('Sovereign made the whole process simple and straightforward, taking the stress out of getting a mortgage'). It implies a prevention interpretation where the action of 'taking the stress' prevents the stress associated with 'getting a mortgage'. The NP object 'the stress' is not a causee, but the construction still fits the transitive out of -ing pattern with a prevention interpretation.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'grown out of' which is a phrasal verb indicating a change over time, not a transitive out of -ing construction. There is no NP object functioning as a causee, and the interpretation does not involve movement/extraction or prevention.

Princess Eugenie may be marrying Jack Brooksbank on Friday , but her true partner in-crime will surely always be her big sister , Princess Beatrice .

The sentence 'Excessive accountability' Kevin Courtney, the joint general secretary of the National Education Union, said the research showed the Government is 'doing a far better job of driving people out of teaching than they are in retaining them'' fits the transitive out of -ing construction. It has the structural pattern NP subject (the Government) + V1 (driving) + NP object (people) + out of VP2[-ing] predicate (teaching). It also gives rise to a movement/extraction interpretation, where the Government is causing people to move out of teaching. The verb 'driving' fits the category of exerting force or pressure, and the NP object 'people' functions as a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'teaching'.

One in four teachers work more than 60 hours a week , with many working into the evening ( Photo : PA/PA Wire ) A quarter of teachers in England work more than 60 hours a week despite successive government promises to cut their workload , research has revealed . A study by University College London found that teachers work around 47 hours per week on average during term time , including the time they spend on marking , lesson planning and administration . Thanks for signing up ! Sorry , there seem to be some issues . Please try again later . Submitting ... In the summer term the average working week was nearer to 50 hours . The research looked at data from more than 40,000 primary and secondary teachers collected between 1992 and 2017 , and found little change in working hours over time . It also found that teachers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ compared to teachers in comparable industrialised countries in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development ( OECD ) . In 2018 , the average full-time secondary teacher in England worked 49 hours per week compared to an OECD average of 41 hours . The equivalent figure for teachers in Finland -- which is highly ranked in international education league tables -- was just 34 hours . The study found that around 40 per cent of teachers in England usually work in the evening , and 10 per cent at the weekend . Full-time secondary teachers also said they spend almost as much time on management , administration , marking and lesson planning each week ( 20.1 hours ) as they do on teaching pupils ( 20.5 hours ) . Professor John Jerrim of the UCL Insitute of Education , who led the research , said : " Successive secretaries of state for education have made big commitments to teachers about their working hours -- how they are determined to reduce the burden of unnecessary tasks and how they will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ how difficult it is to reduce teacher workload and working hours . " He added : " Bolder plans are needed by the Government to show they are serious about reducing working hours for teachers and bringing them into line with other countries . " Kevin Courtney , the joint general secretary of the National Education Union , said the research showed the Government is " doing a far better job of driving people out of teaching than they are in retaining them " . A Department for Education spokesperson said : " As today 's report shows , the number of hours teachers work has remained broadly unchanged over the last 25 years . " We have , however , been making concerted efforts to reduce workload driven by unnecessary tasks -- 94 per cent of surveyed school leaders report they have taken action to reduce workload related to marking and more than three-quarters say they have addressed planning workload .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'gets joy out of upholding the rule of law' involves a transitive verb 'gets' with an NP object 'joy', but it does not induce either a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Additionally, the NP object 'joy' does not function as a causee participating in the event described by the VP2[-ing] predicate 'upholding the rule of law'.

Ilhan Omar bragged that President Trump is ' terrified ' of her and that she lives ' rent-free ' inside his head because he spends so much time focused on her . Omar - part of the so-called Democrat ' squad ' including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez , Rashida Talib and Ayanna Pressley - argued it is her ' intersectonality ' that most intimidates Trump . In an interview with Samantha Bee , the Minnesota representative said she gets ' joy ' from upholding the law by impeaching Trump and joked that the thought of Donald Jr being unhappy also makes her smile . ' I sit on the intersectionality of many identities he despises : Woman , immigrant , Muslim , refugee , hijabi - in one beautiful package , ' she told Samantha Bee .

' Just because I live rent free in their head does n't mean they live rent free in mine . ' Speaking about the impeachment inquiry now investigating Donald Trump - which ' the squad ' was fundamental in pushing for - she denied it was about getting rid of a president she personally dislikes .

' But we take joy in making sure that when we say @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that the American people know that we are serious about that .. The inquiry was launched after it was revealed that Trump pressured Ukraine 's leader Vlodomir Zelensky to dig up dirt on rival Joe Biden . At the same time , the US was withholding hundreds of millions of dollars in military aid , leading to accusations of a ' Mafia-style shakedown ' of a foreign leader .

' Of the four politicians Trump was referring to , only Omar was born outside of the US - living for a time in a Somalian refugee camp before emigrating to America . Trump has also helped to push claims that Omar married her brother in an apparent immigration fraud , a theory that multiple investigations have been unable to get to the bottom of .

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'out of' in a different context, describing the creation of boxing gloves from cars, which does not involve a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The verb 'beats' does not fit the semantic classes of verbs that typically appear in the transitive out of -ing construction, and there is no causee participating in an event described by a VP2[-ing] predicate.

The best superhero games make you feel like you 're actually embodying the powers and responsibilities that define your favorite heroes . Reading about their righteous actions in comics is one thing , but getting to control them as they fight crime and defeat the forces of evil is something else entirely . Suddenly you 're right there in the action , punching bad guys square in the jaw and rescuing innocents before they fall prey to the schemes of twisted villains . Whether these heroes were borne of comics or games , playing as them is a joy as you save the day time and again . Before we get into our list of the best superhero games ever made , there 's one ground rule : we 're only allowing one game per hero ( crossovers not included ) , otherwise this list would be crowded with a certain series of Batman games . With that , put on your mask , slip into those tights , and get ready to become the superhero you were meant to be with these amazing games . At face value , The Flash looks like a typical brawler , but having the power to dash between enemies using super speed completely flips the script . Activating Flash 's super speed slows the world down while allowing him to maintain velocity , so you can see what it looks like from his point of view when he goes full-blur and puts his enemies in the ground . Need I say any more ? Play it on : Game Boy Advance It 's rare @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ which makes High Moon Studios ' Deadpool quite the treasure indeed . This third-person hack-and-slash drops you into the boots of the Merc with a Mouth , and lets you loose on hordes of disposable , meat-filled enemies in a bloody action adventure that never misses the chance to crack a joke . It 's a good thing , too , because while the combat starts to get stale by the time the credits roll , that stellar script and wonderful comedy more than make up for it . Deadpool 's meta , fourth-wall-breaking antics are enjoyable from beginning to end . Plus , there 's a scene where you 're able to slap an unconscious Wolverine for a solid three minutes , and who does n't want to do that ? Play it on : PC , PS3 , and Xbox 360 Scribblenauts started with the ambitious concept of conjuring any word you could imagine , and it has only grown from there . In 2013 , the series massive dictionary got even larger with Scribblenauts Unmasked , which included every @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in its lexicon ( including Bloodwynd and Kryptonian , but sadly not League of Shadows ) . Scribbling protagonist Max can summon Batman to solve his problems , or a dozen different Batmen to deal with a new logic puzzle . Unmasked has a massive DC-themed vocabulary , and in addition to letting you summon the entire Green Lantern Corps to help you solve a riddle , the encyclopedic collection of names doubles as a Wiki that gives you background on every single DC term included . So , hey , it 's educational ! Its such a thorough celebration of DC 's past and present , that it 's hard not to feel all the joy dancing across your screen at all times , like waves of transformative radiation . Play it on : PC , Wii U , and Nintendo DS An MMO based off on the DC universe does n't sound like a great idea on paper . If everyone 's a superhero , then are what 's so super about everyone ? But , six years on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on PC and next-gen consoles , having successfully made the transition from the PS3 and Xbox 360 in 2013 . Players get to create their own superhero based on the traits of DC 's wide catalogue of canonical characters , before venturing fourth into the open world to join the fight against perpetual doomsday . Above all , DC Universe Online excels as an example of perspicacious post-launch curation , as developers Daybreak Game Company has devoted itself to perpetually enhancing and expanding the game with new content , updates , fixes , and rewards for the past half decade . It 's starting to show its age in 2017 but , as a free-to-play action MMO that reveals a deep understanding of and admiration for its source material , you could do a lot worse than DC Universe Online . Play it on : PC , PS4 , and Xbox One Not only is the X-Men Origins : Wolverine game infinitely better than the movie it 's loosely based off of , but it might well be one of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ R-rated experience which does n't shy away from Logan 's capacity to brutalize his enemies , X-Men Origins : Wolverine represents the first mature take on the character outside of the comics . The game was more than just blood and guts , however , as the action-heavy combat is engaging in its simplicity , not to mention relentless during the impressively designed boss fights . The well-told story also features full voice acting from almost the entire cast of the film , with Hugh Jackman himself lending his suitably gruff tones to the proceedings . Unfortunately , the movie 's infamously awful interpretation of Deadpool turns up in the game , too , so it is n't all plain sailing . Play it on : PC , PS3 , Xbox 360 , and Nintendo Wii Through much of the 2000s , Activision found a real niche for itself publishing dungeon crawlers based around comic book super stars . After increasingly well-made adventures like X-Men : Legends and the first Marvel : Ultimate Alliance , the series reached its loot @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . While in many ways Ultimate Alliance 2 re-purposed the formula from its predecessor almost note for note , the incremental adjustments establish it as the pinnacle of the franchise . It features a huge roster of stars from all over the Marvel Universe , has the best visuals in the series , and is built around the hero vs. hero Civil War story-line , making its plot a bigger draw than you might expect . It has its flaws , but if all you 're looking for is to sprint down dungeon corridors and punch Magneto in the face , you 've found your game . Platinum Games has superheroism in its blood . Bayonetta and the Transformers Devastation may be lacking in capes and Kryptonite , but they prove how skilled Platinum is at working with the sorts of giant explosions , eye-catching aesthetics , and giddy heart that make superheroes so beloved . So it 's not surprising that when Platinum tried its hand at a literal superhero game - The Wonderful 101 - it hit the nail on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 101 , you control a 100-strong team of superheroes as they battle against a powerful alien force trying to take over the world . In proper Platinum form , you fight battles that both look and feel larger than life , but with a twist : the mass of superheroes under your control combine to create gigantic weapons that you use in battle , letting you feel just as big and powerful as the things you 're fighting . While the game does stumble in places ( the Wii U GamePad is occasionally crowbarred in with painful results ) , its silly affection for everything superhero-y makes it difficult not to love . Play it on : Wii U From Star Wars to Lord of the Rings , the Lego games have proven that just about everything is better in brick form . That trend continues in Lego Marvel Super Heroes , which comes at the Marvel universe with easy to grasp adventure gameplay and the sort of lighthearted humor that Lego games have long become famous for . Seriously , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ world-annihilation device a " Doom Ray of Doom " ? Playing Spiderman as he teams up with Black Widow to defeat Venom and make silly block puns is really all you need to have a good time here , and Lego Marvel does n't overcomplicate the mash-ups . Yet , in its own goofy way , it remains loyal to the Marvel universe , making each character feel essential to the cast and giving them abilities that uniquely fit them , like the Hulk being able to throw cars and make competent use of a computer . It does n't have much to offer players hoping for a challenge or a serious story , but it 's pure and simple fun , and that 's all it needs to be . If you were to ride a time machine back to 2006 ( or maybe just spin the world in the other direction , Superman-style ) , you 'd probably get a lot of raised eyebrows over the idea that Saints Row would eventually include a superhero game . But my , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ incredible powers like super speed and energy projection , out to save Earth from world-hopping evil , headquartered in a secret Saints-cave , and decked out in matching outfits . I 'm gon na say that qualifies . Saints Row 4 transformed the post-modern sandbox into a profane riff on The Matrix , and it 's an absolute blast to explore and destroy as you see fit . You 're faster than a speeding bullet and more powerful than a locomotive , exploring the virtual city of Steelport just like Superman would - were he a sociopathic , deposed President that loves Biz Markie . That alone makes the game worthwhile , turning the simple act of moving from one place to another into a high-speed adventure . But toss in progressively more intense powers you unlock as you go and ridiculous slapstick comedy , and it 's a game that 's hard not to love , no matter how many dick jokes it tells . Play it on : PC , PS4 , Xbox One , PS3 , and Xbox 360 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ book or a movie , and it does n't feature a beloved protagonist with roots in 1940 's Americana . Instead , Delsin Rowe is a hero for the modern age : a charming delinquent who discovers he can absorb other superheroes ' powers a la Rogue from X-Men , and struggles with the choice between using them for good or whatever he damn well pleases . While the first two games have their charms , Second Son is a fuller package , with tons of side content and visual flourishes that make the heroes and the city they 're trying to save feel alive .

In the ten years since the release of EVE Online , the game has developed a reputation as the MMO where anything is possible . The incredible freedom EVE gives its players has allowed an incredible metagame to emerge , heralding previously unheard-of levels of player interaction . Everybody who plays EVE has that one story--the incident that got them hooked--but some of the events over the past 10 years have proved so incredible in scope and ambition that it 's hard to imagine them occurring in another MMO . There are too many amazing moments to highlight them all , but here are some of our favorites to inspire you as EVE Online enters its second decade . By 2009 , the Great War had been raging across New Eden for more than two years . It began with Band of Brothers ( hereafter known as BoB ) battering a GoonSwarm still fresh out of Something Awful , but the Goons scrabbled their way into the ranks of New Eden 's elite . BoB , meanwhile , had built @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Region , from which they could impose their military might on EVE 's player base . Neither side was able to decisively defeat the other on the battlefield , and it seemed as though the Great War would last forever . It did n't . Early in 2009 , a high-ranking officer of BoB contacted GoonSwarm members suggesting he wanted to defect . In spying on the Goons , the officer--Haargoth Agamar--had realized that he actually preferred GoonSwarm 's ribald ways , so he opened a communications line to the head of Goon intelligence : TheMittani . Naturally suspicious of Agamar--a full director defecting seemed too good to be believed--TheMittani demanded Agamar give him access to BoBs forums . When Agamar complied without hesitation , TheMittani quickly grasped the implications of Agamar 's defection , and set about the destruction of GoonSwarm 's nemesis . Though TheMittani was able to steal an entire BoB capital fleet , hundreds of smaller ships , and trillions of ISK ( EVE Online 's in-game currency ) for GoonSwarm , TheMittani had still greater plans for BoB . Under TheMittani 's instructions @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ its territory holding division Tin Foil . With the dissolution of Tin Foil , all the territory that BoB had possessed became unclaimed , undefended space free for the taking . And take the Goons did , but not before adding insult to injury : GoonSwarm even stole the name " Band of Brothers , " meaning that even if BoB were to reform it would have to change names . Robbed of its treasury , many of its ships , its home systems , and even its name , BoB was unable to mount any significant resistance . The Great War was over . The first weeks after EVE Online 's release might be seen as a " Belle Epoque " for players uninterested in Player vs . Player combat . Pirates existed , but they lacked the organization and ISK to operate on any large scale . Protected by CONCORD , miners and traders could eke out their living in relative peace . Then m0o began camping the entry portals--known as " jumpgates " --in the central Mara system , and nothing was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a group of Counterstrike-hardened power-gamers . As you might expect from players with such a background m0o 's members were experts at analyzing EVE 's complicated ship fitting systems for potential imbalances and then exploiting those imbalances to the limit . Piloting large , powerful cruisers at a time when most players were still flying small frigates , m0o began camping jumpgates in Mara in early June 2003 , claiming more than 200 kills on the first day alone . Players holed up and waited for the camp to end--except m0o never left . Hours turned into days , and days turned into weeks--but the camp continued . At first players tried to run the blockade . They failed . Then they tried organizing into large fleets to force m0o out of Mara . They failed . As players flooded to EVE 's forums to complain , the camp became such an incredible strain on EVE 's economy that the developers intervened . CCP employees shooed m0o away with a powerful fleet of CONCORD battleships , even destroying their leader . Once the CCP battleships left , the camp @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of developer intervention , the Mara Gatecamp was temporarily broken when m0o ships were instantly teleported by CCP to far-flung corners of New Eden . In the end , the Mara Gatecamp was never broken--m0o simply decided to do move on . CCP quickly took steps to ensure that such a critical system could never camped again . Jumpgates are now protected by powerful sentry guns . Ship components were rebalanced , and CCP changed jumpgates so that players are immune to damage upon arriving in a new system . What m0o did in 2003 is almost--but not quite--impossible in the modern game . M0o 's epic gatecamp changed the game . Early in the evening of July 8 , 2013 , pilots in the mercenary corporation Pandemic Legion ( PL ) began organizing a fleet for what they thought would be a routine operation . Their targets : a pair of carriers--large , expensive capital ships . The plan was essentially a drive-by shooting : jump in , destroy the carriers , and jump out before any reinforcements could arrive . To quickly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ force to bear in the form of 13 supercarriers . While most of the Pandemic Legion pilots chose to fly standard Aeons and Nyxes , TSID decided to take his incredibly rare Revenant--one of only three in all of New Eden--out of mothballs for the occasion . What neither TSID nor any of the other Pandemic Legion pilots knew was that the targeted carriers were not as vulnerable as they appeared . They were bait . Unhappy with how PL treated its members , a player named BandWidthh , unhappy with his time in PL , had helped arrange a massive trap--a trap the PL fleet walked straight into . As soon as the PL supercarriers arrived , nearly 100 hostiles dropped on them . Hailing mainly from Black Legion--PL 's rival at top of the mercenary food chain--the enemy fleet quickly trapped PL in place and destroyed their supercarriers . Of the 13 ships to enter the trap , only 3 made it out . TSID 's Revenant was not one of the lucky few . The destruction of the valuable Revenant resounded through New Eden @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like yahoo.com , just a week after the immense Battle of 6VDT-H smashed the record for most players in a player vs. player battle ( over 4,000 ships engaged , with over 2,900 ultimately destroyed ) . Over the past decade , EVE Online has developed a reputation as a playground for clever gamers--but not always honest ones . Scamming is a regular pastime in EVE , and if you do n't keep your wits about you you may find your ISK in someone else 's wallet . Do n't feel too bad , though-- even seasoned " bittervets " fall prey from time to time . Most scams are simple smash and grab affairs , but every so often we get to hear about a scam so intricate , so perfectly executed , that it reverberates through EVE for years afterwards . Of this select few , the Guiding Hand Social Club 's ( GHSC ) destruction of the Ubiqua Seraph corporation stands alone . The objective was simple : An anonymous client wanted the frozen corpse of Ubiqua Seraph 's CEO Mirial @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2005 . Nobody knows who the client was , or why they put so dear a price on Mirial 's head--not that GHSC cared about reasons . They cared about results . And so began GHSC 's eight-month infiltration of Ubiqua Seraph 's every level . The key was Arenis Xemdal . He was the player who made the heist possible by working his way into the Ubiqua Seraph 's upper echelons . It was Xemdal who proposed Mirial bring her valuable Navy Issue Apocalypse ( much less common in 2005 ) out of its hangar . And it was Xemdal who destroyed both Mirial 's Apocalypse and her pod , gathering her frozen corpse for GHSC 's client . Xemdal was the key , but he was not the only GHSC operative . GHSC had , in fact , infiltrated Ubiqua Seraph at nearly every level . Even as Xemdal was collecting Mirial 's corpse , virtually every Ubiqua Seraph station was simultaneously robbed in a ballet of choreographed theft . In a press release following the heist , GHSC crowed about stealing more than 30 billion @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the operation as " staring at Fort Knox with the key in our hands . " Guiding Hand Social Club 's incredible heist remains one of the most impressive scams in the history of New Eden . There have been bigger scams--Phaser Inc. ' s simple Ponzi scheme reaped more than 1 trillion ISK from feckless capsuleers--but nothing like this had been attempted in 2005 . When PC Gamer 's UK edition publicized the incident in September 2005 , new players flocked to EVE to see what mischief they could wreak . EVE Online is renowned for the scale of it 's PvP battles . Tensions between huge nullsec alliances organically generate massive battles like Asakai . Members of the ClusterFuck Coalition ( CFC ) remember it as a black day .. Everybody else remembers it as the best chance to kill CFC 's enormous capital fleet . More than 2,700 pilots found their way into Asakai . What 's most incredible is that Asakai--one of the largest battles in EVE 's history--was sparked off by a simple misclick ! Though it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Battle of Asakai began as little more than a regional skirmish . A small pirate alliance named Drunk ' n Disorderly attacked the Liandri Covenant . Knowing the Liandri had contacts within the CFC , Drunk ' n Disorderly put out diplomatic feelers to a powerful mercenary faction : Pandemic Legion . PL agreed to wait on standby in case CFC capital ships dropped on to the fight . Shortly after Drunk ' n Disorderly began the engagement , CFC ships began appearing in Asakai , as expected . The sudden appearance of a Titan-class ship on the battlefield , however , was completely unexpected . Immense and heavily armed , Titans are the biggest ships in EVE : effective force projectors but they 're vulnerable in lowsec systems like Asakai . The only reason DaBigRedBoat ( universally shortened to DBRB ) appeared was because of pilot error : While intending to " bridge " or transport a fleet of smaller ships into the battle , DBRB accidentally clicked " jump " instead , sending his Titan into the Asakai system and the EVE history books . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ destroying DBRB 's stranded Titan . What they did n't know--what no non-CFC pilot knew--was that DBRB had backup . Lots of it . A few moments after landing in Asakai , DBRB had called in a huge force of CFC capital ships . With that , the battle was on . Every major alliance in New Eden flocked to Asakai for the chance to get a piece of the action . The Battle did not go the CFC 's way . By the time the CFC managed to extract itself from the fight , it had lost billions of ISK in ships . The CFC suffered almost 90% of all losses at Asakai . Notable among the CFC 's casualties were 44 Dreadnoughts and 3 Titans . With pitched capital-ship battles becoming increasingly rare in EVE , it was incredible to see so many capital ships destroyed in a single afternoon . Topping out just north of 2,700 pilots , Asakai was only the third largest battle in the history of EVE Online . Asakai was originally second to the Battle of LXQ2-T , but that record @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ smaller , Asakai is perhaps the most interesting . Unlike the other two large conflicts , Asakai was not part of a major war . It was not a pitched battle , with plans laid out ahead of time . Rather , it was the sudden result of simple human error , and predatory glee . In early 2004 , members of the PvP-focused alliance Zombies , Inc. decided they wanted to have a bit of a rampage . Their goal : Besiege Yulai--New Eden 's central trade hub at the time--and escape with their ships intact . This might not seem like so ambitious until you realize that all high-security ( hisec ) systems--Yulai included--are protected by the ever-watchful eyes of CONCORD . EVE lore describes CONCORD as a sort of galactic police force , but you can think of CONCORD as a game mechanic for discouraging ganking . The idea is simple--if you attack any player , NPC , station or installation , CONCORD will warp in and destroy your ship . At least , that 's how it 's supposed to work @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Inc. had discovered a key flaw in the way CONCORD was designed : Players healing a criminal were not attacked by CONCORD themselves . So with enough healers and a solid HP buffer , a single player could maintain CONCORD aggro without any damage going to his support fleet . Zombies , Inc. were not the first to discover the bug--it was actually fairly well known--but they were the first to exploit it on a large scale . So on March 3 , 2004 , Zombies , Inc. went into action . The " Killer " piloted a smartbomb-equipped Apocalypse , supported and healed by several other battleships . The plan was , for all intents and purposes , a simple gatecamp . Ships jumping into Yulai were bombed on arrival . Smart bombs--one of the few area-of-effect weapons in EVE online--deal enough damage to instantly destroy most frigates , so smaller ships were often destroyed before their owner 's game client had even loaded the system . When attacked by CONCORD , the Killer simply turned his bombs on the police ships while his wingmates healed any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ officially ordered the Zombie pilots to stop , or face the consequences , but Zombies , Inc. ignored CCP 's warnings , destroying several more player and CONCORD ships before the dust settled . In the aftermath of what quickly became known as the " Yulai Incident " or the " Yulai Massacre , " players flocked to the forums to applaud or condemn Zombies , Inc . As a consequence of their actions--and of ignoring CCPs direct warning--the Killer and all his support pilots were banned from EVE Online . While the exact number of destroyed ships is impossible to say , an official statement by CCP describes the destruction of " over 100 people . " Because CCP considered the tactics Zombies , Inc. used to be an exploit , every victim had their ship restored to them . To prevent another Yulai Incident , CCP introduced a raft of changes to CONCORD . First , pilots healing or supporting a ship under attack by CONCORD will themselves be flagged as criminals . Second , CONCORD ships got such a massive buff that most players consider @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the ability to instantly destroy criminal ships , regardless of their current health--tanking CONCORD is impossible . Lastly , CCP clarified and reiterated its stance that any attempt to evade or escape CONCORD would be seen as an exploit and the responsible player would receive a ban . The Yulai Incident is still brought up whenever a fresh-faced noob asks older players why players do n't attack CONCORD more often . What 's even more amazing ? This is one of the few older major incidents of which we have video . In the nine years since , the Yulai Incident has entered the canon of player lore--one of the key incidents that helped shape EVE into the game it is today . *** Over the course of the past decade , EVE Online 's players have accomplished more amazing feats than could ever be contained in one article--the past decade has seen massive battles and incredible scams . The only question remaining , then , is this : how will you |

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. The phrase 'making money out of rising market instability' involves an NP ('rising market instability') as a complement of the complex preposition 'out of', where 'rising' modifies the following head noun 'market instability'. This does not introduce a VP[-ing] predicate, nor does it induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Therefore, it is not an instance of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The New European is proud of its journalism and we hope you are proud of it too . If you value what we are doing , you can help us by making a contribution to the cost of our journalism I know it 's not just me , so I assume you have noticed eerily disturbing parallels emerging between Donald Trump 's political flight path and that of our own Trump Mini-Me as beleaguered Britain flies into October 's uncharted Brexit airspace with the transponders switched off ? So weird is the convergence that there is talk in both jurisdictions of impeaching the rascals , though not in a single two-for-one indictment to save money . Hyperbole ? Of course , though my own impatient lapses are a " model of restraint " compared to Boris Johnson 's cynical notion of moderation . David Gauke deplores the new " Trump style " and Alastair Campbell revealed in last week 's TNE that he has nightmares . The verbal damage @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ populism may prove a more toxic legacy than acts of war - or even Brexit . Wednesday 's supposed ' final offer ' to the EU27 , the ' two borders for four years ' hybrid model for the Irish border , was badly received in Brussels and aroused the immediate suspicion that it was " kamikaze " , designed to be rejected , so that Johnson can take Britain over the no-deal cliff on Halloween , as Dominic ( " we are enjoying this " ) Cummings intended . Brilliant brinkmanship - or loutish , self-absorbed stupidity , the latest miscalculation since he entered No.10 ? The idea of Boris O ' Johnson , the emollient Irish customs officer , is not one likely to get many takers . ********** It 's not good enough to point out that their rivals say deplorable things too about " lynching Esther McVey " and other ugly nonsense . Presidents and prime ministers set the tone , not backbench MPs who may be genuinely frightened for their children 's safety . Even Jake ( " constitutional coup " ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ especially to women and ethnic minority MPs - though not his own silky role in fuelling it . It is hard to put the genie back . Just look at the US-UK governing duo 's increasingly erratic sense of direction , their inflammatory ( " take it or leave it " ) and obfuscatory ( " no memory whatsoever " ) provocations , both to rally the party faithful gathered in Manchester , to abuse opponents and distract from their own glaring failures and affairs . Consider the crowd-pleasing words that mask private intentions and possible defiance of the law , the sheer , destabilising dishonesty of so much of what both leaders say in these dangerous times . Johnson 's post-Supreme Court statement to MPs last Wednesday was the most tawdry Dispatch Box performance I can remember in 45 years . He does not have Trump 's excuse of narcissistic ignorance . For all his double-speak of reuniting the country , his party conference speech doubled down yet again . It wo n't " Get Brexit Done " anyway , just the relatively easy bit . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ collapsing icebergs in the background - that some talk of invoking the ancient legislative remedy of parliamentary impeachment . First revived from the classical world in England in 1376 it successfully removed one of Edward III 's crooked military commanders , William Latimer , who had been short-selling the country for French bribes . MPs last deployed it in 1806 to curb the Scots Tory politician , Henry Dundas , suspected of stealing naval funds . He was acquitted after a trial by his mates ( whoops , I mean peers ) in the House of Lords , so you may think he was lucky . No , impeachment is n't going to happen here , despite a certain blond columnist enthusiastically demanding it for Tony Blair over Iraq in 2004 . It may not come to much in the United States either . In 230 years the US House of Representatives has impeached two presidents , Andrew Johnson ( no relation ) in 1868 , and Bill Clinton in 1998 . Both were acquitted by the Senate - shades of Dundas - while a third , Richard @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . Trump 's ever-deepening trouble over his ' Mafia shake-down ' treatment of Ukraine ( Australia too ? ) looks increasingly serious , but I 'm still sceptical that it will ever get to the Senate . In an election year , the risks are high for both sides . Clinton 's popularity actually rose . Voters warm to a lovable repentant . ********** At Westminster , the combined opposition majority have other levers to pull in their efforts to head off Team Johnson 's so-far feeble plans to get round the Benn Act . That 's the one which requires No.10 to seek a further Brexit extension if no deal has been reached at the October 17-19 EU summit . But they ca n't agree on what exactly to do . Thanks to No.10 the 22 expelled Tory MPs hold the key . By definition they are weighty and experienced players , as the European Research Group 's Steve Baker and Mark ( " gun in my mouth " ) Francois are not . A successful no-confidence vote under the 2011 Fixed Term Parliament Act is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . But one carried without an agreed interim PM ( " not you , Jeremy " ) , let alone what he/she should do next apart from seek that three-month extension , is a recipe for disaster . Not that the SNP would care much . For the same reason as the DUP and Sinn Fein , the Nats are not honest brokers of a UK crisis . Do n't hold your breath . Call an election ? Or initiate a People 's Vote ? With an extension secured , fractious Labour could no longer duck the election it pretends to want , but never now . It would be an election that the ousted " Brexit Martyr " Johnson might be well placed to win handsomely , as Dominic Cummings - dubbed Wile E Coyote by TNE - surely calculates . Far better to keep Boris on the hook and force him to back down from his windy " do or die " pledge . Watch them wriggle as No.10 sweats to square its macho political strategy with the inconvenient facts and the constraints of the law . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Manchester conference , craven ministerial loyalists , most of them kept in the dark like mushrooms , have been contradicting themselves on Brexit , as on much else . That includes the number of new hospitals ( 40 or six ) they promise to build with Monopoly money that Sajid Javid does n't have , whatever he said from the podium on Monday . The Treasury 's own Office of Budget Responsibility ( OBR ) predicts a ? 30 billion loss from no-deal . We know that party conferences are bubbles , but this week has been the Tory bubble . Whatever happened to the Blessed Margaret 's lessons on fiscal probity ? Or Javid 's professed devotion to the minimal state cultist , kooky Ayn Rand ? Ministers protest that Benn 's law is undermining their negotiating strategy in Brussels , as are interventions there by " traitors " like Blair . Yet they still assert there can be a deal while insisting - on no evidence - that they will be able to sidestep Benn with one of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ " by October 31 without a deal . In that event there will be only temporary disruption ( ignore gloomy Operation Yellowhammer predictions and business complaints ) . In any case , steps will be taken to mitigate it . What does Nissan know about producing cars in Sunderland compared with IDS ? This ca n't all be right and , judged by both weasel words and feeble actions , we are given little reason to trust those who say it . Perhaps they have an ace up Coyote Cummings 's sleeve to offset his run of defeats , though dissent and departures in No.10 suggest an unhappy ship , torn between high-profile Coyote , who apparently has Carrie Symonds on his side , versus relatively stable Michael Gove , Eddie Lister and Lynton ' Dog Whistle ' Crosby . The World King is reportedly resolute for indecision ( again ) as his greatest copy deadline looms . The other Dominic - Grieve QC - says Benn 's law is watertight . But it is the prime minister who sets the tone and direction for his administration 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the BBC 's terrier-like Nick Robinson on Radio 4 's Today - plenty such this week , he prefers chatting to hacks over the " working flat-out " grind - was pretty second-rate bluster on both substance and unapologetic tone . ********** The plan had obviously been to avoid sending the EU27 any formal revised draft of a Withdrawal Agreement - as distinct from deniable ' non-papers ' - until after the party faithful were safely on the train home , doubtless rightly worried that Brussels would leak details and provoke hardline uproar . Leaks happened anyway , the plan to establish Irish border customs/standards ' clearance sites ' five to 10 miles from the international border . It is a version of Norway 's arrangements with Sweden , endorsed by ERG types and Greg Hands ' Alternative Arrangements Commission , but not by assorted Irish tribes , including the DUP 's Arlene Foster who is cutting up rough again . For a leader in a Brexit minority , who has crashed her own devolved parliament , she certainly has nerve . Under Boris 's plan Stormont could @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Optimism indeed . Faced with awkward leaks Johnson prevaricated , as usual . That 's why this week 's column is not wasting much space on that pole-dancing American ' tech entrepreneur ' getting public funds and telling people who told the Sunday Times shewas having an affair with Mr Mayor . Most voters seem to assume the sex is true and wholly in character . Oddly the new Tory party conference , rabidly right-wing and populist , high-spending and louche , does n't seem to care about the money or sex - as it did when amateur lecher , Cecil Parkinson , got caught at the 1983 conference . With World King Boris philandering is all priced in . Ditto allegations from Charlotte Edwardes , the journalist who launched her new column with a double thigh squeezing yarn about the then-editor of the ' Sextator ' , as the Tory magazine was called during Johnson 's chaotic editorship . I assume it 's true , so does Amber Rudd , who famously said she would n't want Boris to share her taxi . Matt Hancock boldly faces @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ leader 's routine denial . It must be said that no public money was involved . But amateur philanderers have been forced out for less . Boris was married to his " current wife " and getting the Spectator 's Petronella Wyatt pregnant at the time . ********** It never does to get too pious about sexual misconduct in politics . David Lloyd George was a predator ( and financially dishonest too ) , but managed his affairs discreetly , as worldly types like Alan Clark do . LG was also a brilliant , can-do leader at two moments of existential national crisis , his radical 1910 budget battle with peers and the war crisis of 1916 . Boris may yet surprise us all and deliver a workable Brexit , one that binds up the nation 's wounds and allows the angry bully to become the One Nation liberal Tory he claims to be . Not much grounds for hope yet . Sister Rachel blames the Coyote . But what goes round comes round again . While waiting for Blair and president Jacques Chirac to emerge from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Chirac 's steamy love life ( " cinq minutes , y compris la douche " as a bodyguard later observed ) , all true , he confirmed . " No British PM since LG would have dared , " I replied . " No , because next day it would be all over your tabloids , " retorted my colleague . #MeToo times have changed that calculation - even in cosy elite France . But character matters in politics . Dead at 86 , Chirac was buried in pomp this week , a charming rogue whose regime as mayor of Paris was corrupt . His two terms as PM , later president , were marred by scandal , lack of purpose in fulfilling his pledges to help future gilets jaunes , by disloyalty and opportunism . In 2011 Chirac was too gaga to be in court for his two-year suspended jail sentence . On the left he gets credit for resisting the 2003 invasion of Iraq , but that was shabby opportunism too , in cahoots with Russia and China at the UN . If they followed abroad @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ act ' , which all but guaranteed the invasion would happen . It has not spared France or Germany Islamist violence and gilets jaunes reaction . Similarly motivated by personal ambition and not much else , Johnson 's tactics also help entrench ugly reaction among aggrieved citizens who - all but the easily misled - are probably taking this week 's spending promises with a mug of salt . Though an above-the-fray law officer , attorney general Geoffrey Cox abandoned declared respect for the Supreme Court 's prorogation ruling halfway through his parliamentary statement . He denounced the Commons elected in 2017 - after an avoidable Tory mandate gamble - as " dead " and cowardly for resisting another avoidable Tory wish to repeat the tactic which failed for Theresa May . Cox sounded like an ERG candidate in a Labour-held by-election in pro-Leave Middlesbrough . But before bedtime he was outbid by his slapdash columnist of a leader 's " humbug " response to Labour 's Paula Sherriff , protesting about his use of the toxic phrase ' surrender act ' to describe the Benn legislation . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Done " is the best way to honour pro-Remain Jo Cox , murdered by an inflamed nationalist . ' Paralysed parliament ' , ' surrender act ' , the ' people vs parliament ' , ' cowardice ' - these glib slogans have all been market-tested by the social media-savvy Cummings . At the Tory conference the phrase ' focus group-approved ' is appearing on fringe meeting advertising for policies which may be sponsored by some of those pro-Brexit , pro-Boris high financiers , their money cleansed via think tanks . Philip Hammond - no leftie - denounces them as cynically making money out of rising market instability . Have they bought the Johnson Tory party , as Doha bought the crowd-free World Athletics championship ? Hammond 's ex-permanent secretary , Nick MacPherson , was moved to endorse his boss 's complaint , but it was left to junior Treasury new boy - pro-Brexit , right-winger , Simon Clarke - to deny it , an expendable yes-man . All governments have them , this one has several with cabinet rank . Even Javid has been dubbed CHINO - @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with it all , floating anonymous ministerial briefings about ' public disorder ' if Brexit is postponed . Perhaps riots are conjured up to justify using emergency powers against Benn 's act , even as they blame critics for alarmism of No.10 's own , calculated creation . Researching the latest volume of his excellent biography of Margaret Thatcher , the toady Telegraph 's Boris-backing Charles Moore has unearthed a 1993 letter in which the ex-PM says Britain would be better off out of the EU , becoming a free-market , non-interventionist Singapore . Coincidentally a few days earlier I had heard one of her closest advisers in Downing St , speaking privately on that very issue . He made two points . This well-placed civil servant never heard Thatcher - no focus group follower - endorse Brexit and knew she always deplored referendums . But she regretted giving away so many vetoes to achieve the single market in 1986 and became impatient with the Franco-German push towards federalism . Which way would she have voted in 2016 ? " I honestly do n't know . " But @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ club . And certainly do n't mention low-spending Singapore . The New European is proud of its journalism and we hope you are proud of it too . We believe our voice is important - both in representing the pro-EU perspective and also to help rebalance the right wing extremes of much of the UK national press . If you value what we are doing , you can help us by making a contribution to the cost of our journalism . |

In Emergency Chronicles : Indira Gandhi and Democracy 's Turning Point , Gyan Prakashchallenges historiography that presents the Emergency of 1975-77 as an anomalous period in India 's recent history , instead showing how it grew out of existing political traditions , the legacies of which can still be felt in the present . This valuable analysis not only shows how Indian socioeconomic structures have moulded its politics , but also suggests a way to understand the wider challenges facing contemporary politics in many parts of the world , writes Ben Margulies . It is common in the age of Donald Trump to warn about ' norm erosion ' -- the process where an authoritarian or populist leader defies or undermines the rule of law . Trump 's personalised attacks on opponents are cast as norm erosion as they denigrate the idea of loyal opposition ; ditto his threats to , say , re-introduce torture . It continued with the gratuitous impeachment of Bill Clinton , the elevation of George W. Bush to the White House by a Supreme Court deploying the most specious reasoning , a war in Iraq built on flagrant lies , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ now the ascension of Trump . .... Robin 's arguments came to mind quite a bit as I read about the very different context of India in the 1970s , the subject of Gyan Prakash 's excellent Emergency Chronicles : Indira Gandhi and Democracy 's Turning Point . Prakash says that , in most Indian historiography , the Emergency is a sort of blip , when democracy blinked out of existence before its fortuitous restoration . But Prakash uncovers how the Emergency grew organically out of Indian political traditions , and how those traditions continue today . Prakash 's analysis of this political culture , and the way Indian socioeconomic structures mould its politics , suggest a way to understand the wider problems of unruly contemporary politics in many parts of the world . Indira Gandhi exemplified the Nehru-Gandhi era in Indian politics , when this family dominated the ruling Indian National Congress and a succession of majority governments . Prime Minister from 1966 to 1977 , and again from 1980 to 1984 , she led a developmental state , committed to the industrialisation and uplift of ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cultures ' that ' had to be fused into a nation ' and made modern ( 51-52 ) . In the period between 1973 and 1975 Gandhi faced an economic downturn , a mass campaign for her removal led by Gandhian activist Jayaprakash Narayan and a court case that threatened to strip her of office . Indira Gandhi declared a State of Emergency on 25 June 1975 . For the next 21 months , she would jail her opponents , muzzle the press , deflect judicial review and wield nearly unchecked executive power , often in tandem with her eldest son , Sanjay . Prakash recounts the Emergency , and Indian political history more broadly , through a series of topical chapters which often sweep down to focus on a particular human drama to illustrate a specific topic . The story of student activist Prabir Prakayastha takes us through the world of preventive detention ; the trials of Old Delhi 's walled city serve to illustrate the violent slum clearance and sterilisation campaigns ( India saw more than 8 million sterilisation operations in 1976-77 ( 284 ) ) . @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bit too much of the book on Sanjay Gandhi and his Maruti project , a failed bid to build a small passenger car in India 's closed market . Prakash writes that the Emergency 's declaration ' is ... seen as a sudden irruption of authoritarian darkness and gloom ' , and ' an abrupt disavowal of the liberal-democratic spirit that animated Jawaharlal Nehru Indira Gandhi 's father and other nationalist leaders ' ( 8 ) . One of the key arguments of his book is that this conventional view is wrong : Indian political order always contained ' authoritarian darkness and gloom ' . The Indian National Congress and the Constituent Assembly met in an India mired in ' backwardness ' , new to democracy and riven by an exceptionally bloody Partition . ' Violence and upheaval were on the minds of the lawmakers ' ( 56 ) . Consequently , India 's ruling elites embedded sweeping emergency provisions in the Indian constitution ( adopted in 1950 ) , while working to strengthen the central government and limit restrictions on its executive power . For example , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' due process of law ' in detaining ( or indeed , killing ) someone , but merely ' procedure established by law ' ( 62-63 ) . India passed its first Preventive Detention Act in 1950 ( 66-68 ) . Prakash argues therefore that the Emergency was not a departure from Indian norms , but rather an intensification of authoritarian practices New Delhi had employed from independence . Why were India 's elites , in founding the world 's largest democracy , so illiberal in their habits ? Partly it was because they thought it necessary for national development ; Indira Gandhi often cited economic development and the fight against poverty as justifications for emergency rule . B.R. Ambedkar , a Dalit scholar often considered a father of Indian constitutionalism , argued that a strong centre and a developmental state were necessary for democracy to function at all , because the state would abolish caste discrimination and level out economic injustice -- ' without equality and fraternity , liberty would be meaningless ' ( 70 ) . Prakash 's other great contribution in this volume is to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sort of elite-society relations . Prior to Independence , India had never enjoyed universal suffrage , so Indian governments were not used to mass politics aside from the civil disobedience and strikes associated with Mahatma Gandhi ( who was not related to Indira Gandhi ) . For mass politics to work , India 's Congress governments would have to create a more prosperous and equal society . By the late 1960s , it was clear that wealth and equality were not in India 's immediate future . ' The consequences of this failure are profound , ' Prakash writes ( 126 ) . Without equality , ' empowering the disadvantaged can only mean climbing the power ladder rather than kicking out the ladder altogether ' , meaning that Indian democracy devolved into a competition between various clienteles and interest groups playing ' a game of power ' , rather than working as ' an instrument of social transformation to make equality the norm ' ( 127 ) . The result is an Indian politics steeped in authoritarianism . Gandhi , unable to relate to the masses through a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ through a combination of repression and a cult of personality , trying to create a single pyramid of power and devotion focused on her and her son . On the ground , the opposition developed into a fractious set of warring parties , often based on specific castes or regional bases . These parties managed to unite as the Janata Party to defeat Indira Gandhi when she belatedly -- and overconfidently -- called an election in 1977 , but they soon fell apart ( as Prakash details in a chapter towards the end of the book ) , allowing Gandhi to return to office in 1980 . This leaves secular , democratic India defenceless against its main ideological competitors -- Maoist Communism ( in the form of the Naxalite revolt ) and the Hindu nationalists of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh ( RSS ) and its affiliated parties . The RSS offers a mass politics , but one based on a majoritarian , illiberal and often violent Hindu chauvinism . The Hindu nationalist political camp has long been one of India 's most potent social forces -- Prakash details how @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Fittingly , Prakash mentions Narendra Modi in his opening and closing chapters . Perhaps the only unmet ambition in Emergency Chronicles is Prakash 's wish to situate the Emergency and its associated turmoil in the wider history of the post-1968 period . The author hints at this theme a few times , but does not really develop it in depth . This is unfortunate , because many developing polities faced similar stresses during the 1970s , and responded with emergency rule . Prakash alludes here to Zulfikar Ali Bhutto 's rise and fall in Pakistan , a theme he could have developed more , especially given Pakistan 's own clientelistic , top-down politics . ( Anatol Lieven compares India and Pakistan in his book on the latter country . ) That aside , Prakash has written a valuable work , which embodies important lessons and certainly speaks to contemporary issues . Emergency Chronicles reminds us that the horrors of our histories do not emerge from the clear blue sky , but from long traditions of ( mis ) rule . The book also warns us that democracy is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ game , where someone is always threatening to take the ball and go home .

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). Instead, it describes the director pulling out of directing a series due to personal concerns, which does not involve a causer causing a causee to move or preventing them from doing something as per the construction's definition.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'pulled out of directing' involves the subject 'director Bier' and the action 'pulled out of', but there is no NP object that functions as a causee in relation to the VP2[-ing] predicate 'directing'. Additionally, the interpretation does not align with either the movement/extraction or prevention interpretations characteristic of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not follow the structural pattern NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate. Instead, it uses 'grow out of' in a different context where 'out of' indicates the origin or cause of the friendships, not a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. The NP object 'firm friendships' does not function as a causee, and there is no causer performing an action to induce a change in the causee's state or action.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction. It lacks an NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate structure. Additionally, the phrase 'grow out of attending our events and receptions' does not induce a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation, which are key characteristics of the transitive out of -ing construction.

The sentence does not fit the structural pattern of the transitive out of -ing construction (NP subject + V1 + NP object + out of VP2[-ing] predicate). The phrase 'shutting the elected parliament and HoL out of anything' does not involve a VP2[-ing] predicate, and it does not give rise to a movement/extraction or prevention interpretation. Instead, 'anything' is a noun phrase complement of the complex preposition 'out of', similar to the examples in (7a) and (7b) which are not instances of the construction.

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson 's advice to the Queen to suspend Parliament was unlawful and therefore the House 's prorogation was also illicit and should be recalled as soon as possible , said a judgment handed down at the Supreme Court this morning . The surprising ruling PDF from the Supreme Court was the unanimous ... No , but declared the act was unlawful , ie. illegal , should someone decide to make a case , which I think they will at some point . Presumably Bojo will resign before he Parliament decides to hold him in the contempt which he deserves . Difficult to fault the judgement on points of law , but that was the impression last week when the government 's legal team ( B-team at best ) made their argument , that the court was n't allowed to decide . You are n't allowed to impersonate the Queen for the purposes of personal gain of the perpetration of a fraud or deception for other pecuniary gain . But you are quite right ... it is n't illegal to declare that you are the Queen , a queen , half a Queen on alternate weekdays , or even Brian May , but it is unlawful because it is without a lawful backing . Unless you actually ARE Brian May . On unlawfulness and what that means for the government , it 's not like the PM behaved criminally . This is a public law matter and unlawfulness only means that the public body overstepped its authority by exercising a power that it does n't have or by exceeding the limits of that power . It happens all the time , but it 's not usually the PM who is found to have done this . Other ministers are routinely found to have exceeded their authority . It also does n't imply malicious intent . The remedy is usually that the decision is quashed and any actions flowing from it are nullified , which is what has happened here . Pedant attack ! Unlawful and illegal are n't synonyms in their legal usage , e.g. the definition of murder requires that the killing be unlawful , plus some other requirements* . They approximately mean not according to the law versus directly contravening the law . Although not everyone even seems to agree about that . It 's a slightly fuzzy thing relating to the constitution not being particularly explicit in many areas . Anyway , this was definitely the former rather than the latter . It 's harder to be lawful than merely legal . " Presumably Bojo will resign before he Parliament decides to hold him in the contempt which he deserves . " Should but not necessarily will . Parliament has a couple of options if he does n't . On would be a vote of confidence , the other is to charge him with contempt of Parliament . In the latter case I wonder if that results of him being kicked out of his seat as well as out of No 10 . Presumably Cummings would also be in their sights . The most entertaining result of holding him in contempt would be immediately imprisoning him in the houses own prison cell . With luck the ensuing fist fight would also incapacitate a hundred or more political parasites . Having previously worked to help implement the IPSA expenses system I can confirm that 98% of politicians and their self appointed **35;145848;TOOLONG are exactly the same . Not a shred of decency amongst them ( although I did have to chuckle at the irony when one MP 's proxy , irate at having to navigate the complex signing on process in order to claim for a ? 3,000 rug , ranted that she was paying my wages and therefore deserved better service ... ) Anon for obvious reasons due to having signed the Official Secrets Act As warming as it may be to the cockles of your heart ( or the heart of your cockles , if you are so inclined ) to imagine BoJo receiving some rough justice from an armed robber in Wormwood Scrubs , the reality is that he did nothing wrong in proroguing parliament , it was in accordance with precedent , in accordance with the advice of the government 's senior law officers , and his freedom to commit those actions was sanctioned in the High Court , by three of the senior judges in the country . In this context , unlawful and illegal are very different . Illegal means criminal - you ca n't do something , it 's a crime . Unlawful , here , means without justification in law . Boris has been told he did n't have the power to do what he tried , not that it was criminal to so . Unlawful ! = Illegal Unlawful - Not Authorised by law . Illegal - Forbidden by law . In the first case - no statute exists forbidding Boris Johnson 's proroguing if parliament , however the courts ruled that in doing so for such a long time , he 's effectively denying Parliament the opportunity to hold the Government to account . In determining this they took submissions from John Major that drawing up a new Queen 's speech need only take around 5 - 6 days . And yes I know the controversy over the cash for questions proroguing of Parliament . However this Judgement will make it harder for this and future Governments to use this as a tool to get round blocks by Parliament . " Say for example a " Government of National Unity " forms to block Brexit rather than facing General Election . I can see this going to the courts as it is formed for the sole purpose of " stymie " the referendum result . " No . The forming of a government is a proceeding of Parliament . The courts ca n't touch it . If Parliament approves revoking notice under Article 50 and stopping Brexit , that is also a proceeding of Parliament . Parliament is sovereign . Why is this so hard for people to understand ? Government is not sovereign . It requires the confidence of the House of Commons in order to govern . When the government tries to sidestep Parliament , the courts have a duty to preserve the separation of powers when such matters are brought before them . Acts of Parliament reign supreme . The referendum result has no legal or constitutional significance other than what Parliament decides to give to it . Nor do the courts have any say over whether or how a non-binding result is implemented . Parliament does not require the confidence of the electorate , meaning that there is no process to replace Parliament apart from a general election , which the public may not call . And they block offers of a GE because they do n't trust Johnson not to use the date of the election to frustrate Parliament 's ability to control the exit from the EU . If Johnson really wants change so badly , all he has to do is resign government . He does n't want to do this because it would allow Parliament 14 days to attempt to form another government without the need for a GE . Say for example a " Government of National Unity " forms to block Brexit rather than facing General Election . I can see this going to the courts as it is formed for the sole purpose of " stymie " the referendum result . It is more likely a " Government of National Unity " ( or just another Government ) forms to find a way forward with Brexit without just telling the EU " we 're taking our bat and ball home because you 're being mean to us " ( a negotiation strategy which most school kids work out early on is unlikely to be successful ) . Even so , the referendum result has no legal weight so the situation you specify could n't be taken to court . As Leavers said they wanted so many times during the ref , Parliament is Sovereign and it is up to Parliament to implement the referendum result ( or not ) as they see fit . That 's what Sovereign means , in this context . Presumably Bojo will resign before he Parliament decides to hold him in the contempt which he deserves . Nope : Parliament will prefer to ritually mutilate all of their sexual organs , rub the wounds with salt and chilli , while casting the antics on Twitch.tv , rather than doing anything that maybe even remotely , could result in parliament dealing with the unpinned grenade that Brexit has become ! --- Which of course means that Boris Johnson will be resigning exactly at the point in time where various procedural requirement and delays makes the ' October the 31'st Crash out ' impossible to avoid . Presumably Bojo will resign before he Parliament decides to hold him in the contempt which he deserves . I doubt it . However , many people have stated that this could actually be a good thing for BJ . He has already set himself up as champion of the people over Parliament/the Elite ( as laughable as this is ) . He is a populist , not concerned with the truth or anything else . He will merely present this ( using weasel words so he can argue he is n't slagging off the judiciary even though he is ) as the Supreme Court being another part of " The Elite " he has to fight against on behalf of " The People " . This is likely to gain him more ( or stronger ) support . They did implicitly though . Part of the Court of Session in Edinburgh 's ruling stated that he had misled the queen . The government appealed against that ruling at the Supreme court in London who rejected the appeal , upholding the Court of Session 's original ruling ( including declaring the prorogation null and void ) . A higher court can affirm the ruling of a lower court for an entirely different set of reasons . I have no idea if that has any relevance to this case , though . I 'd have to read the judgement in full , which I have n't done yet . The explicitly did n't - they said there was no evidence . And there is no higher court - the buck stops here . Anyhow , the judgement told him how to do it properly next time , look at clause 59 . If he has a good reason , ( for example needing 3 weeks to set out the Queen 's speech because of the massive backlog of Brexit legislation ) he can do it again . Which he probably will . >Anyhow , the judgement told him how to do it properly next time , look at clause 59 . If he has a good reason , ( for example needing 3 weeks to set out the Queen 's speech because of the massive backlog of Brexit legislation ) he can do it again . Which he probably will . Unless , of course , MPs use the freshly re-opened Parliament to push through a bill requiring Parliamentary approval to prorogue Parliament in future ( i.e. a majority of MPs voting in favour ) . The Supreme Court does n't have to decide on that , it sets it up for others , including parliament where the government not only lost its majority , but scrumpled it up and flushed it down the toilet . Now , when does Jezza decide to do the decent thing ? Unlawful means there is no law allowing you to do it yet but no law to strictly forbid it . In other words what you have done is outside the law as it stands because it has never been done before so there is no law to strictly forbid it . That 's how this armchair solicitor views it . I now await the down-votes , will then declare them unlawful , and demand a re-thread . ( It is as much arguing the difference between civil law and criminal law as anything else . ) I remember back in the day when a certain Home Secretary increased the sentences of the murderers of Jamie Bulgar , only for the courts to rule that said Home Secretary acted unlawfully . Yet said Home Secretary did n't break any law , he simply believed he had the power to do so and the courts ruled he did n't . " Unlawful means there is no law allowing you to do it yet but no law to strictly forbid it . In other words what you have done is outside the law as it stands because it has never been done before so there is no law to strictly forbid it . " It 's a possible answer to the question ( we probably both found it here https : **39;145885;TOOLONG ... but it does n't sufficiently explain it in a public law context . In this context , " unlawful " simply means that the public authority has overstepped its authority . Either it exercised a power that was not available to it , or it exceeded the limits of that power . In the present case , it is the latter . " Illegal " has several different meanings and there is n't really one that would apply here . It can mean that someone broke an existing law ( criminal or civil ) or it can refer to a law that is not formulated with sufficient precision so that its application can be reasonably foreseen . It probably has other meanings too , but those would be the most common under UK law . Luckily contempt of parliament does not need illegal or criminal actions . By ruling on the basis he has interfered with parliaments business , that 's automatically contempt of parliament . Parliament can arrest him the moment he sets foot in the house if they do n't feel like involving the police . ... and if he hides from parliament , that is also contempt of parliament ; ) Yeah , those suit jackets with the sleeves pulled up were terrible - the nylon built up a massive static charge from the extreme pounding of a severe rogering whilst bent over the side bars of a home treadmill . Not unsympathetic to the grumblings as the EU has grown and the bureaucracy with it , but on balance it seemed better to stay in the tent ; I 'd have voted remain if asked . However , given the current state of affairs , does putting the parliament back in session get the UK closer to resolving this ? The Parliament has already rejected the deal negotiated with the EU , no deal , an election . Would n't it be better to take your lumps and end the uncertainty ? It 's a shame a referendum for Northern Ireland 's future was n't offered when the Scots were asked . Given the risk of further violence , not an easy problem . That 's why I said it was a shame the question was n't asked before . As I understand it , NI demographics have been gradually shifting over time and are now such that there would probably be majority support for leaving the UK , leaving aside the EU factors . I 'm guessing the EU factors would also support remaining in the EU if/when the rest of the UK departs , as appears to be the case with Scotland . " As I understand it , NI demographics have been gradually shifting over time and are now such that there would probably be majority support for leaving the UK " I 'm not sure you understand it very well , NI benefits enormously from being part of the UK , I 'm not sure many people want to pay EUR 50 to see a GP . There 's a lot more trade with NI & the rest of the UK than with ' the South ' . " I 'm guessing the EU factors would also support remaining in the EU if/when the rest of the UK departs , as appears to be the case with Scotland " You 're not making the mistake of believing the SNP are you ? A large majority here still want to be part of the UK , our problem is the unionist vote is split 3 ways so the SNP get elected . And they 're the only ones you ever hear from . BTW , an independent Scotland would be out of the EU for a considerable amount of time , and Sturgeon et al would have had us all out in 2014 without a thought . The current bloviation is To be clear , it 's not a matter of me wanting Irish reunification or NI independence from the UK or even NI rejoining the EU ; that is properly a matter for the citizens of the 6 counties . The trade situation is not a surprise ; England is the economic powerhouse of the UK , and where Great Britain 's GDP is over ? 2 trillion , NI 's is less than ? 40 billion ( 2017 ) . The republic 's GDP is about ? 280 billion . Of course GB will be the bigger partner ; it 's almost 8 times the size . I never paid 50 ? to see a GP while I lived in the RoI ; I did get an ambulance , hospital admission , surgery and an overnight stay all in for 45 ? once , though . So I 'm not sure that NI citizens have too much to fear on that score . I 'd imagine the EU would be pretty keen for any process involving NI rejoining the fold as part of the republic , or as an independent state to go smoothly , politically and economically . If for no other reason to be mud'n the eye for the British . Sorry for the confusion , my comparison to Scotland was specifically in reference to the EU referendum results , where NI and Scotland produced majorities for remain ( unlike England and Wales ) . I would not draw a parallel between NI and Scotland in reference to remaining part of the UK because the demographic and historic situation is significantly different , and NI have n't had a referendum in recent years as Scotland has ( or at all ) . As a great man almost said once : " The reason for my coming here has never been more clear . The union of the Northern Ireland and the Irish people will not be achieved by politics or by diplomacy , but it will be achieved . The answer has been here before us all along . An inexorable evolution toward a European philosophy has already begun . Like the first Europeans , these people are struggling toward a new enlightenment ; and , it may take decades or even centuries for them to reach it , but they will reach it , and I must help . " The Irish reunification question is complex And I suspect that Eire would like to wait until the current generation of ' loyalist ' terrorists are dead before going for reunification - especially as the demographics of NI are gradually shifting to favour it . " Lock him up ! " My understanding of the relevant laws and documents is that there are n't any laws regarding this matter - there are interpretations of the constitution and precedence . Precedence allows the PM to prorogue Parliament - effectively Boris 's argument for prorogation and as PM he would normally have the majority of parliament supporting him . I think the Tories still had a majority at the time as I think the **27;145926;TOOLONG happened after prorogation . However , as Parliament effectively were n't represented by the PM between announcing prorogation and it coming into effect , the decision was that Boris 's actions prevented parliamentary business taking place . This was unprecedented and would usually fall on the Speaker to try and force the house to follow convention . Normal precedent would have been for Parliament to call a vote of no confidence , the Government to lose and an election would be called , but the 31st of October Brexit deadline was looming , so precedent was ignored and we end up in the current messy situation . While I do not believe prorogation was the democratic way forward , the precedent of involving the legal system to resolve a constitutional matter will likely cause issues in the future as the Government no longer has the final say if a ( private ) legal challenge is brought and successfully argued in court . i.e. if this path had been followed for the invasion of Iraq under Blair on the basis that information provided was not correct , then potentially decisions could be rejected . While overturning Brexit/war decisions may be in the UK 's best interests , not all cases will be favourable . In the bigger picture , I 'm not sure this outcome substantially alters the Brexit picture - Boris is still PM , he is still planning to try and leave on the 31st as he promised but he is being obstructed by remainers which plays into his election strategy . On the other hand , Parliament is too unstable to continue in its current state beyond the 31st of October ( or sooner if legislation to delay past the deadline is put in-place ) where we will likely see an election . In the meantime , we see a further delay as any legislation to potentially bind a future majority Governments decision would not last . From that election , we then get to see the next stage but it is not clear what that would be . My understanding of the relevant laws and documents is that there are n't any laws regarding this matter - there are interpretations of the constitution and precedence . " Parliament is sovereign " is clear cut , well known , and pretty easy to understand and comprehend , even for the layman . Parliament can choose to lend its powers to other authorities and it thus allows the government to exercise prerogative rights and to prorogue when " for good reasons " . But the key here is that lent powers are constrained by purpose and intent . Where the Johnson Junta over-stepped the mark was in taking the piss , proroguing for other than " for good reason " . Everyone could see that ; even those supporting such subversion when being honest with themselves . So it was guaranteed the Courts would , though the High Court dodged the bullet by pretending it was ' none of our business ' . Some people seem genuinely surprised by the Supreme Court ruling . I believe it was an obvious inevitability . Anything else would have meant ruling that parliament was not sovereign . And we all know that it is . Though some brexiteers would prefer that we had a dictatorship where the government could do as it damned-well pleased . I was n't surprised , but it could have gone either way . For starters , Parliament is n't sovereign . The sovereign is . Parliament has no role in government other than to advise the sovereign . The sovereign 's power to prorogue Parliament does n't come with a reasonableness test attached . But the courts seem to have decided that the sovereign is actually just the government 's puppet . Another argument that might have led to a ruling the other way is that it is not unreasonable to prorogue Parliament for 5 weeks when it was already taking 3 weeks off for conference season , and has not scheduled sessions for many available days in that time and afterwards . There was nothing stopping Parliament largely circumventing prorogation by sitting 7 days a week on their return and making up most of the lost time . I think one would have to be quite partisan to convince oneself it was an obvious result either way . It 's true that there were few parliamentary sessions planned , but prorogation ( as opposed to recess ) also prevents the sitting of committees , the submission of and response to verbal or written questions etc etc The point being that it stops *all* parliamentary business , not just the sitting of the houses themselves . Yes , I did n't mean to imply otherwise . My point is that while the probabilities favoured the result we saw , it was far from a certainty . So a ruling in either direction should n't have surprised anyone , unless they were so partisan they 'd convinced themselves it was a slam dunk . I think you 'll find the whole sovereignty thing started to favour Parliament after the English Civil War ( see the Bill of Rights , 1688 ) . By the end of Victoria 's reign the constitutional experts had decided the crown was simply a ceremonial institution . The power of the monarch has been increasingly limited pretty much throughout our history , notably Magna Carta , but mostly in many small steps . Oddly enough the Civil War itself did n't have a huge effect , apart from , obviously , the interregnum . The Glorious Revolution is what really set us on the path of constitutional monarchy . " For starters , Parliament is n't sovereign . The sovereign is . " Errrm , I 'm neither a constitutional lawyer nor a politician or a political scientist . But I get the distinct impression that , according to you , an unelected bureaucrat holds sovereignty in this country ? Could you possibly explain in plain English how that fits in with any concept of democracy , let alone ' bring back control ' ? ( Incidentally , the Supreme Court ( legally trained gentlepersons , methinks ) seems to disagree with you : " As long ago as 1611 , the court held that " the King who was then the government hath no prerogative but that which the law of the land allows him " . " I think that refers to the Case of Proclamations against King James VI ( http : **39;145955;TOOLONG ... Apologies for posting that umpteen times today but it does go to the core of UK democracy - for those who believe in that . For non-UK readers : " the law " is not always written law in the UK , esp . where constitutional law is concerned , as the UK has no written constitution . ) I have to pick a nit : The UK does have a written constitution - the problem is just that is is written on scraps here and there , and ( a bit like the Bible ) , while there is agreement about the big lines , no-one are sure what all the right bits are , and there is no final edited version . Indeed . The ' no written constitution ' claim always gets up my nose . If anything we have too much written constitution scattered around in rather large piles . Gathering it together , identifying and cleaning up the loopholes would be a worthwhile exercise . Lady Hale and the rest of the Supreme Court would beg to differ as they made precisely this point in their judgement , which is now de facto law . The Glorious Revolution and the Act of Union , amongst other laws , effectively put an end to the sovereignty of the Sovereign . Otherwise , why would the Queen be more or less obliged to accept the advice of the government ? " For starters , Parliament is n't sovereign . The sovereign is . " This is a meaningless statement . The sovereign is Parliament and Parliament is sovereign . The monarch used to be the government and the government used to be sovereign until the Case of Proclamations ( 1610 ) held that " The King has no prerogative but that which the law of the land allows him . " This is all in the judgement . You should read it . " Parliament has no role in government other than to advise the sovereign . " This is utterly false and backwards . The government can only govern if it has the confidence of Parliament , particularly the House of Commons . Only Parliament can make law . " I think one would have to be quite partisan to convince oneself it was an obvious result either way . " I 'm a firm remainder and I firmly believed the Supreme Court would affirm the judgement of the High Court . I was gob-smacked that the ruling was unanimous against the government . I read the judgement in full and feel it makes perfect sense , but only the Supreme Court could have held what it did . Please read the judgement . It 's illuminating . While I do not believe prorogation was the democratic way forward , the precedent of involving the legal system to resolve a constitutional matter will likely cause issues in the future as the Government no longer has the final say if a ( private ) legal challenge is brought and successfully argued in court . Methinks you do not fully understand ... the Government has the final say , but the way the Government behaves -- the way it conducts its business -- is constrained by the legal framework within which it operates , which is intended to ensure that Democracy is respected . The courts ca n't tell the Government that it has the wrong policies , only that it is trying to enact those policies in a way that is not supported by the Law . My worry , here , is that a future government might attempt to reduce the power of the Courts , which would have grave implications for democracy . " While I do not believe prorogation was the democratic way forward , the precedent of involving the legal system to resolve a constitutional matter will likely cause issues in the future as the Government no longer has the final say if a ( private ) legal challenge is brought and successfully argued in court . " I do n't think so . A key part of the legal argument was that Parliament could n't sort itself out because it had been prorogued . The court 's intervention to restore Parliament was therefore required in order that it ( the court ) did not , through *inaction* , get involved in politics . We 're back to parliament as it was in the 16th C. with fluid alliances being formed around individual bills as they are tabled for debate . We 're lucky the ancient laws & precedents brought into play through these court cases exist as I do n't believe the current shower could come up with anything remotely similar . The supreme courts judgement boils down to " You can close down parliament but not for this long " If BoJo now steps down , the clock starts ticking for a forced election because I ca n't see anyone getting a majority in the house in the time allowed . While I do not believe prorogation was the democratic way forward , the precedent of involving the legal system to resolve a constitutional matter will likely cause issues in the future as the Government no longer has the final say Lots of other countries have government decisions ( and even laws ) overruled the courts . In fact , it 's a critical aspect of the separation of powers . Otherwise , as the Supreme Court argued , the government can decide it 's had enough of parliamentary scrutiny . That door has now been firmly closed : the executive made a power grab and failed . Not only that but the attempt was ruled unlawful : do it again and criminal proceedings could be initiated . More unchartered territory but that 's what the much-vaunted UK constitution is supposed to be good at dealing with . Personally , I 'd like to see Bojo done for Contempt or Parliament and Corbyn be sent down for being a waste of time . Then we might actually see some stuff being done . If I remember the discussions correctly then this could actually cause major issues in the future specifically because it says the Supreme Court has authority over Parliament . This goes against the supposed seperation of powers which is presumed in how things ' work ' in the UK . It 's not statute , but it is law . Our legal system is grounded in Common Law , which is essentially accumulated precedent . Of course we also have Statutes ( written laws reviewed and passed by Parliament ) and also Regulation ( written law created by ministerial fiat and not reviewed by Parliament ) . It 's overall a bit of a mess , but it 's worked ( more or less ) for at around 300 years so far . However there 's an increasing and worrying drift towards Regulation . This Supreme Court decision ( although not setting any precedent ) is a strong and welcome indication of resistance to the trend . The judgement addressed that question explicitly . Quote : The Government argues that the Inner House could not do that because the prorogation was a " proceeding in Parliament " which , under the Bill of Rights of 1688 can not be impugned or questioned in any court . But it is quite clear that the prorogation is not a proceeding in Parliament . It takes place in the House of Lords chamber in the presence of members of both Houses , but it is not their decision . It is something which has been imposed upon them from outside . It is not something on which members can speak or vote . It is not the core or essential business of Parliament which the Bill of Rights protects . Quite the reverse : it brings that core or essential business to an end . " And since " unelected judges " overruling parliament was one of the main complaints ... " That sounds rather like hundreds of comments on the BBC website . It appears that quite a few folk are unaware that it was the PM ( unelected , appointed by a party with a minority in Parliament ) who effectively tried to overrule Parliament by proroguing it . The Supreme Court has confirmed that , in accordance with UK constitutional law , Parliament is sovereign . The goverment/crown can indeed prorogue Parliament , but only in line with tradition/precedent , i.e. for 5 - 7 days , not 5 weeks . As the SC states : " As long ago as 1611 , the court held that " the King who was then the government hath no prerogative but that which the law of the land allows him " . " I get the impression quite a few folk are unaware of the distinction between the legislative ( Parliament ) , the executive ( government ) and the judiciary ( courts ) . Are they Brits unaware of the constitional law of their country ? Or foreign folk who have n't been briefed properly ? Am I just a grumpy sod ? I get the impression quite a few folk are unaware of the distinction between the legislative ( Parliament ) , the executive ( government ) and the judiciary ( courts ) . Are they Brits unaware of the constitional law of their country ? Or foreign folk who have n't been briefed properly ? Am I just a grumpy sod ? It could be all of the above . But , for the record , you do n't sound all that grumpy to me . Brits are totally unaware of our constitutional laws - hence brexit , and the voters who voted to " punish " the EU for the faults of the UK government , and " take back control " we already had ... and then complain when they perceive this control works against them . to cheer up those who feel victimised because it 's claimed the Brits are totally unaware of their / our constitutional laws - cheer up , you 're not alone , the state of ignorance is typical for at least two other European populations I know somewhat better than most here , which makes me think that ignorance is , well , pretty much a common state of affairs for the huge majority in each and every population . compulsory civics classes in school , which our American chums enjoy If only . I imagine there are school districts in the US where civics classes are compulsory , but I believe that 's relatively rare . If this report is accurate , only a quarter of 8th-grade students in the US meet the basic proficiency requirement in civics . That 's approximately the same as the fraction of Americans overall who can name all three branches of government , 1 so the general population is n't doing better than the students ( nor vice versa ) . As that report notes , increased focus on the basics and " teaching for the test " in schools , thanks to heavy-handed interference like NCLB , is forcing out civics and other " breadth " curricula . I do n't think courts lobby for anything . They judge what others lobby for , though there may well be some doing that . Personally I think a written constitution is probably a bad thing . What would be written is likely to be less liberal than the existing ambiguity , along the lines of ' it is better to beg for forgiveness than ask for permission ' . " lobby for a written Constitution on the back of this judgement . " Why ? Our checks and balances have done what they were meant to do . Parliament will again be able to hold the government to account . A flexible enough constitution to adapt to situations we would n't have envisaged thirty years ago ( like electing a bunch of blithering idiots to office and having them controlled by a very small group of disaster capitalists ) is a good thing . Are they Brits unaware of the constitional law of their country ? In my experience , a good number of brits appear to be ignorant of a number of important distinctions ; that between government and parliament , between representative democracy and mob rule , between the role of the police and that of the courts , between the concept of justice , and that of vengeance , and many many more . I put it down to a lack of education in such matters , and mis-education from a diet of tabloid newspapers and biased TV news reporting . I 'm not sure the remedy is an easy path , as I see it it requires root-and-branch education of the masses in difficult subjects such as critical thinking and social responsibility which are hard things to instil in people who have gone their whole lives with them absent . Er , the king you 're thinking of was n't forced to abdicate because of Wallis Simpson being divorced . That was just the excuse , because it was less embarrassing than admitting he was a full blown Nazi who wanted Britain to join the Axis powers . It has always been the job of the courts to interpret and apply the law , taking into account Parliament 's intentions . The ruling is unusual and I was very surprised by it , but I 've read the whole thing and it makes perfect sense . Prerogative power is residual and can not be used to usurp the power of Parliament to hold the government to account . This , by the way , has nothing to do with leaving the EU . If Parliament agrees to leave without a deal , that 's that . Whatever happens , Parliament must approve it . Parliament writes laws as accurately as it can , Which Parliament does that ? It 's not the one in Westminster . Recent Bills have been full of vagueness with the expectation they ( or more accurately someone will ) work out how to do it ( if it 's even possible ) at a later date . Provided of course , that bits of it are n't subsequently struck down by some higher court at some later date . I know I have been slapped down already ( no excuse for lack of knowledge ) but do n't they normally recess for the conference season which I though was 2-3 weeks ? Really need to catch up on this stuff but with so few of them being the kind of person I would want to be seen stood next to in the pub , I do n't want to seem too keen " Today 's decision means that Conservative MPs will have to choose between voting in Parliament and going to their conference . " It will be interesting to see how petty MP 's and the Speaker might be - not having a recess for the Tory conference will have repercussions at some point but closing for recess lends more weight to closing parliament in the first place . The question will be what Parliament does after delaying Brexit beyond the 31st of October - they are likely to struggle to complete any further business given the current state of the parties and if they are perceived to be playing silly games to avoid an election , it is likely to hurt them come an election . In another forum we had a discussion about the many times politicians have interfered with the education syllabus and how much it looks like deliberate attempts to ensure UK citizens know almost nothing about the constitution , their own history or their place in the world . It 's infinitely easier to trick people out of rights they never knew they had . Or in the case of Britain , never really had , in it 's ' Democracy in Name Only ' . " I get the impression quite a few folk are unaware of the distinction between the legislative ( Parliament ) , the executive ( government ) and the judiciary ( courts ) . Are they Brits unaware of the constitional law of their country ? Or foreign folk who have n't been briefed properly ? Am I just a grumpy sod ? " I have found that most Brits I talk to are shamelessly ignorant of how the separation of powers works in practice . Even a former opposition leader wrote an article in a newspaper in which he interpreted the government defeat in the first Miller case as the courts saying what Parliament can and ca n't do . It 's the EXACT OPPOSITE . He certainly ought to know the difference , but testimonies like that only serve to make matters worse . A great number of people would be a lot less angry and pitch-forky if they would only try to understand these fairly simple distinctions . Reading this judgement would be a great place to start . The case before the court was that it was the PM overruling Parliament . So your " unelected judges " have prevented that " unelected PM " from doing that . In your , and presumably his , terms that 's an outstandingly bad case to make to the people . " A Tony Blair , USA imported idea that the US is also suffering from . " You 're suggesting a lawyer , married to a QC is in favour of abolishing the supreme court ? Time to change the tinfoil hat . The US system of the president picking and choosing supreme court judges to suit his agenda is thankfully not what we have here , yet . " When the lefty kids in the forum get older ... " Some of us are hardly young , that includes me . And hardly lefty - in my case believing in the market economy ( though not without restraints ) , running a small business , providing services to other capitalist businesses , and investing in yet other businesses . Just because somebody does n't agree with you does n't mean they 're left-wing . I just happen to believe in the sovereignty of Parliament and being an old-fashioned kind of git , I believe that the right to vote is accompanied by the duty to inform oneself of this issues and repercussions before casting one 's vote , and the basic constitutional law associated with the body you are voting for . Now get of my lawn . ( Can we have an icon for that ? ) er , it seems like the man with the orange hairstyle is getting slightly uncomfortable again , re . Ukraine , impeachment , etc . I do n't think any other president , not even Reagan got so much " love " at home : ) " ... it 's judges ruling that parliament ultimately has authority over the executive , which very much *is* how things ' work ' in the UK . " You 're correct - the majority in parliament has authority . When parliament was proroguated , the Tories/DUP had a slender majority so it was technically the will of parliament and no vote was required . The current state in parliament is that there is no overall control - aside from delaying Brexit , does anyone expect any real business will be voted upon besides calling an election eventually ? At which point , the bickering in September , the next deadline and potentially any further laws passed in September/October becomes the business of the new government ( majority , coalition or otherwise ) . The supreme court has attempted to plaster over a broken parliament with a constitutional change . The precedence that has been set for the future could be interesting given enough money and an argument now allows you to change Government decisions via the courts . Slightly flippant I know , but I predict further constitutional changes in the next 5 years as a result of this precedent . If the Supreme Court had chosen to say this was a political matter that did n't require their input , it is very likely the same events would play out ( opposition seize control of the house under friendly speaker , ensure delaying Brexit beyond Oct 31st , become deadlocked over Brexit again and realise that the only way forward is an election and roll the dice ) . " When parliament was proroguated , the Tories/DUP had a slender majority so it was technically the will of parliament and no vote was required . " Errr .... no , that 's not how that works . You ca n't just assume what the will of parliament is based on the party allegiance of those in it . Has it escaped your notice that quite significant numbers of those Tory MPs have been voting against the government on a fairly regular basis lately ? In any case - the court addressed this perfectly clearly . Prorogation is done to Parliament , not by Parliament . It does n't prorogue itself ; the monarch prorogues it , based on the advice of the prime minister . Parliament *can't* vote to prorogue itself , that 's just not a thing that happens . No , it maintains the sovereignty of parliament and is upholding that . It would have been difficult if it had gone the other way - the executive would have been free to suspend parliament ( the UK has a parliamentary democracy ) in order to get arbitrary changes through while preventing MPs having any say on the matter . It was made clear in the ruling that Parliament was not being usurped - but the executive being forced to listen to them according to the precedent in the UK . No , it does n't . It just says that they must abide to the law - whatever that is . The parliament and the government can of course make up and decide upon new laws ( which might in some countries be challenged as being against the constitution ) , or change the constitution itself ( in other countries that do have a written one ) . Replying to you rather than others : The court judgement has just ruled that the monarch can not prorogue parliament except on advice from the Executive , and that this advice must have a " reasonable " , erm , reason . That is a change to the constitution . The court has no basis for doing this . We are in seriously uncharted territory here , in which the top court in the land has done something it has no authority to do . See paragraphs 68 and 69 of the judgement ; they basically say that the Royal Commissioners carry out the Queen 's bidding , but that her bidding was unlawful . The court has just constrained the Queen in a way that she was n't previous restrained . I tend to agree , except I 'm not sure the monarch has actually had the power to prorogue Parliament for any reason or none in centuries . It 's not explicit in law , though , so I do find it a worrying case . It 's akin to ruling that Royal Assent is no longer required - it could be that it 's already really the case in practice , and the courts would simply be ruling on the existing , unwritten law . But it would be a much better look to enact primary legislation in Parliament , for something like that . not exactly every proroguing , just one that appears out of ordinary in extraordinary circumstances ( brexit times now ) AND when the gov side comes up with argument in court alongside the " fuckyou , we do n't need to prove our reasons were genuine " reasoning . " This judgement imposes substantial constitutional change ... " No it does not . See the summary of the judgment : " The courts have exercised a supervisory jurisdiction over the lawfulness of acts of the Government for centuries . As long ago as 1611 , the court held that " the King who was then the government hath no prerogative but that which the law of the land allows him " . " All the Supreme Court has done is to remind us that Parliament is sovereign . Which most of use learned in school . But some members of HM government and quite a few commenters on web forums far and wide ( and often less polite and considered than this one ) seem to have forgotten that . " Given the court has no constitutional grounds on which to do that this judgement is itself unconstitutional . " The court provided an argument ( effectively that proroguing Parliament prevented Parliament acting as it wished ) on the basis that it prevented Parliament from acting when it clearly wished to and was therefore . It does amend the constitution - it provides more clarity around when prorogation can be used in future . From the BBC " The Supreme Court has drawn a clear line in the sand that a prime minister 's executive powers in this most important area of how and when Parliament opens and closes are now curtailed - for ever . " The challenge is that while this judgement appears correct ( IANAL ) , it applies to a situation where Parliament has chosen to get itself stuck with a minority Government and not act to address this in a timely manor . Normally , the inability for Parliament to act in this situation would result in an election has been the historical solution . Parliament has chosen not to follow this path - historically , ignoring this precedent has not worked well for Parliament . The concern is that future decisions by Government may be challenged in a similar way , using this precedent ( the courts stepping in from a private case to rule on the legitimacy of Government policy ) to allow future Government decisions to be challenged , which may not always be in the UK 's best interests even if the arguments are legally correct . The concern is that future decisions by Government may be challenged in a similar way , How is that a concern ? If a future governing person - be they minister , civil servant , judge , or even monarch - seeks to dispense with the elected parliament in pursuit of a controversial Agenda , is it not a Good Thing that the precedent says1 they ca n't ? " If a government sets a law , ... " I do n't know where you are based , but in the UK it is the legislature , i.e. Parliament , which adopts legislation ( normally that legislation is proposed by the government , i.e. the executive ) . They are quite distinct bodies . ( Though in the UK there is some overlap as government ministers are also members of Parliament , hence they wear two hats . This is different in some other countries . ) There are multiple meanings of government , one of which is pretty much synonymous with state . The government of the country in the normal colloquial usage includes the civil service , the monarch , the HoL , and the whole of the commons , including the government in the sense you mean ( which is of the group of MPs which has formed a government ) , as well as the police , courts , etc etc . " Because a future supreme court may extend their powers over parliament . " Have you read this far and learned nothing ? The whole point of the court 's decision is to re-affirm the power of Parliament . A cornerstone of the British constitution is the sovereignty of Parliament . The PM has attempted to override that . All the court has done is to give effect to what has been the status quo in the face of that attempt . Had the court ruled otherwise they 'd have enabled a future government to extend its powers over Parliament . My reading of English history is that we have relied on precedent for politicians to provide flexibility to act as situations change and courts have bowed to precedent rather than creating rulings that alter the dynamics between the monarch and Parliament . This ruling ignores parliamentary precedent , establishes a new constitutional precedent and depends on how we view a relatively short time period in parliaments history for if it was ever necessary . It also signals that the supreme court is likely to act again on constitutional matters . We got to this position ( Parliament in 2019 ) due to MP 's reaching a deadlock , the fixed-term parliament act tying the governments hands and instead of the speaker encouraging parties to resolve the issue at the ballot box , he ignored precedent and allowed the opposition to take control of the house , allowing laws to be passed that extend the crisis further . The supreme court was a potential safety valve that could have released pressure with no verdict simply by following precedent and pointing to the ballot box as the solution - instead it has acted , likely allowing further precedents as politicians find further cause to avoid an election that may see their work undone . Following the resumption of parliament , the issues causing Parliament to remain stalled over how to handle Brexit remain . The EU are unlikely to offer an alternative deal , it 's unlikely that May 's deal will be given a 4th vote , leaving a further extension and then what ? I disagree that an election would be siding with the PM - it is siding with the electorate and only acting if this fails . If Parliament reaches a point where the government no longer has a majority , Parliament has a responsibility to address that ( votes of no confidence and attempting to form an alternative government ) . If this is not possible , then call an election and only go to more extreme measures if the stalemate remains . Parliament and the speaker have ignored this responsibility , ignored precedent and then the government has attempted to misuse its powers . The supreme court decision can be right ( legally and morally ) but still be the wrong decision for the situation - too many people in this argument are looking at the result ( delaying Brexit and validating the methods used ) rather than the larger picture of how to get a working government in-place . " We got to this position ( Parliament in 2019 ) due to MP 's reaching a deadlock , the fixed-term parliament act tying the governments hands and instead of the speaker encouraging parties to resolve the issue at the ballot box , he ignored precedent and allowed the opposition to take control of the house , allowing laws to be passed that extend the crisis further . " Uh , no . The fixed term act had nothing to do with this - Johnson , despite squealing how awful it was when Brown was appointed without an election , has barged ahead without the slightest intention of having an election . The speaker has nothing to do with calling for an election . His job is to keep order in parliament and to make sure that MPs and ministers alike adhere to parliamentary law and practice . the only reason the opposition has any control of the house is because Johnson in his extreme hubris effectively sacked 21 of his own MPs for daring to disagree with him . Other tories have abandoned his regime already . What has happened is that an attempt to bypass parliament and therefore the basis of our democracy has been stopped . " ... normally a minority government would ask for an election , but the fixed term parliaments act requires a two thirds of the commons or 434 MP 's to vote for an election . As this requires support from both the Tories and Labour to achieve ( the other parties number less than the difference to achieve the required majority they can be ignored in this case ) . i.e. it is out of Boris 's hands unless Labour want an election . " Labour actually does want an election but not until we 've secured an extension , otherwise there might not be time for an orderly exit . The problem is that not all of the Tories ( and former Tories ) want one . Oliver Letwin in particular does n't want one . He would like to have an extension followed by another public vote . The fixed term parliament act effectively stops the government calling an election - they need 434 votes which means support from both major parties . before the PM can successfully call an election versus the historical requirement to get a majority in Parliament which the current government could very likely get . The Brown/Johnson comparison is irrelevant - we vote for MP 's and by proxy parties and leaders but we do n't directly elect leaders or parties . The speaker does have a great deal to do with the current situation - you say " his job is to keep order in parliament and to make sure that MPs and ministers alike adhere to parliamentary law and practice " . Bercow has ignored parliamentary precedent and practices to hand control of parliament to the opposition and then created further precedents in how he has allowed legislation to be presented and passed . Playing chicken with May for the first extension bent the rules and gave Parliament six months to do something to try and resolve the impasse - the Speaker was happy to let things continue to limp along rather than try and force MPs into taking action . We then see both sides bend or break the rules to achieve their goals in September and still no real resolution to the issues in Parliament as there is now clearly no overall control while before there was a fudge for everything except Brexit issues . To use a bad sporting analogy , the two teams are arguing and not playing the game , the ref has been playing for one of the teams rather than being neutral , the other team got annoyed and tried to take their ball home but it has been stopped because it would ruin the game and meanwhile the crowd is getting tired and leaving . Given the chance , the spectators may choose a very different game next time . I think the idea the judiciary can set that precedent is disturbing . It ought to require primary legislation . It 's always tempting to break liberal principles ' just this once ' , when we agree with the outcome . In this case the courts have interpreted things that are n't explicitly expressed in law . The line between that and creating new laws is easy to cross . I 'm not yet clear on the detailed implications of this ruling , but it seems to have unintended consequences for the nature of our state . It 's a bit like removing Royal Assent from the legislative process - in practice , it 's merely a formality , but the law does n't reflect that . If a judicial ruling had that effect , we ought to question whether the judiciary should be making new laws like that . I kind of see what you mean , but the very purpose of courts is to interpret the law . In particular , the purpose of a constitutional court - as the SC is permitted to act - is to interpret the constitution . Having an unwritten constitution offers them considerable latitude limited only by prior precedent and custom . If parliament wishes to strike down the precedent they merely have to pass legislation that invalidates it . " Normally , the inability for Parliament to act in this situation would result in an election has been the historical solution . " Elections have been known to give rise directly to the current situation* , namely a Parliament without an overall majority . In those circumstances an immediate further election is the last resort ; normally there 's an attempt to form a coalition or possibly a temporary government of national unity . In the present circumstance May and BoJo have attempted to run down the clock to one of other Brexit that MPs as a whole either do n't support for personal reasons or think is against the long term interests of the nation . That has produced a crisis situation in which case an election is untenable . The timing of it would present the incoming government with a dog 's breakfast for the management of which he or she would be responsible . * In fact the last election did just that . May only got a majority with the aid of DUP . The change since than is that what with MPs deciding to follow their consciences and what they considered to be the best interests of their country to change parties and BoJo chucking more out of " his " party , even that majority has gone . It is however entirely in line with recent developments in English legal theory . The courts have been granting themselves greater and greater political power . Although this is sort of natural , and exactly the kind of thing you expect from people , not just from lawyers , there is an argument that they are hanging themselves : that exercising political power makes them subject to political protest , and that in the long term the Supreme Court is going the same direction as the Star Chamber @The courts have been granting themselves greater and greater political power . Not really . The house of Lords used to be the highest court and could have over-ruled the government in the past ; it 's powers were severely curtailed at times in the 20th century , though , so it no longer has the power required to over-rule the Executive . The UK Supreme court has effectively been constituted to fill the void left by the removal of the power of the Lords . It is still feeling its way to where the limits of its power are . And , as it 's new , every judgement it makes is unprecedented ... Upvoted for the " Not really " But the Supreme Court is just the original Law Lords under a new name and with new premises . It 's just a consequence of Blair thinking we should have something called a " Supreme Court " . The whole HoL did n't hear cases , just the Law Lords and the members of the Supreme Court are just the latest holders of those posts . It 's rulings may be " unprecedented " unless they find an existing precedent to follow but that 's the norm for courts dealing with appeals . " The courts have been granting themselves greater and greater political power . " Could you explain this in greater detail whilst allowing for the reality of this judgement : that it ( a ) excluded any consideration of the purpose of the advice to prorogue , of of the rights and wrongs of Brexit or of the party in government and ( b ) simply confirmed the sovereignty of Parliament which has been the cornerstone of the British constitution for several centuries . Regarding your condition ( a ) the judgement explicitly did n't exclude consideration of the purpose of the advice to prorogue ; Lady Hale explicitly stated that the stated purpose was to hold a Queen 's Speech but that she had no evidence of the purpose for that prorogation being five weeks and in the absence of such evidence there was no lawful reason for the five week prorogation . That in turn addresses ( b ) , in that instead of confirming the sovereignty of Parliament she has no instead imposed a new obligation on the Executive to provide a " reasonable " reason to prorogue Parliament . That sounds like the courts changing the constitution and making up new laws to me , and that 's exercising political power . Regarding " Johnson prorogued Parliament in order to avoid scrutiny " there 's not only no evidence for this , it was admitted in court that there 's no evidence for this and the judgement acknowledges that there 's no evidence for this . Regarding " Johnson prorogued Parliament in order to avoid scrutiny " there 's not only no evidence for this .. larely because Boris and his ministers did not submit any evidence to the Supreme Court - thus ( in effect ) enabling the court to find a default judgement against him . The question is - why did n't he present any evidence ? Is it ( possibly ) because he would have to lie under oath in order to say that it was n't all about taking away Parliaments power at a critical time and that would have directly lead to a charge of perjury ? Their silence on the matter is ( very probably ) one of the reasons why the SC found as they did . Then tell me which fucking law was broken ... It is not that any law was broken , it is that no law exists to give the Prime Minister the power to do what he tried to do . That 's why you ca n't find the law in question -- it does n't exist -- that 's the point . The Prime Minister no longer has that power . He now only has the power to advise the Monarch to prorogue parliament if the Supreme Court allows it . Nope . The PM still has the power to prorogue Parliament ( via his advice , such as it is , to the monarch ) , and he is reasonably free to do so as long as the length of the prorogation is in line with previous ones . If he chooses to set out a significantly longer one he 'd better have a bloody good reason to do that , and there 's now a SC ruling that people ( MPs or ordinary citizens ) can use to dissuade him from going down that road . Courts do n't start cases all by themselves ; there has to be someone outside them to start the process , which is , for exactly that reason , bringing the case ( to court ) . Re : " he is reasonably free to do so as long as the length of the prorogation is in line with previous ones " that 's patently not true as the prorogation ruled unlawful was shorter than have been held in the past . re : " If he chooses to set out a significantly longer one he 'd better have a bloody good reason to do that " that 's a new requirement that the Supreme Court today imposed . As for " Courts do n't start cases all by themselves " , no , that 's a right reserved exclusively for rich people . " As for " Courts do n't start cases all by themselves " , no , that 's a right reserved exclusively for rich people . " Possibly in the UK , but in other countries access to justice can be cheaper . Anyway , the Good Law project now runs crowdfunding campaigns to support various cases ( e.g. workers ' rights ) , thus improving access to justice . https : //goodlawproject.org/ Exactly . It 's a public law matter and the public authority exceeded its power . That 's unlawfulness . Illegality is different and it means that a law is not formulated precisely enough for people to be able to predict its effects and behave accordingly . " Then tell me which fucking law was broken , for the Prime Minister to have acted unlawfully ? " He lied to the Queen about why he wanted to prorogue parliament - the judges decided it was for clear political motives , not what BJ claimed . They have therefore called his action unlawful , ie having no basis in law , rather than illegal , ie against the law . What it means is he ca n't be arrested for it , sadly , but his actions have been overturned and parliament can sit and scrutinise his actions . If you ca n't make a point or attempt to argue a view without swearing it makes you look like a surly teenager , by the way . The courts have been granting themselves greater and greater political power . Did you lift that drectly from one of Hitler 's speeches ? Our system of government is very clear - Parliament makes the laws and the Courts adjudicate upon both the laws of the land and on constitutional precedent . The Weimar republic had a very similar system , and the Nazis did n't like this , as it prevented them from doing whatever they liked , so as soon as they got a whiff of power they began to undermine the role of the courts . We all know how that ended up , so be more careful about the sort of bollocks that you post in duscussion groups online , because it sounds very much like you are advocating more of the same . ( This comparison is exempt from Godwin 's law because it is an accurate and relevant comparison to the Nazis ) This was not a case against Parliament , it was a case against the Government . The court has just clarified two things , that frankly in a developed democracy would not have needed clarification , namely that : 1 ) Government gets it mandate from Parliament ( and nobody else ) and therefore has to do what Parliament instructs it to do . 2 ) Nobody , and that includes the Government and the Monarch , is above the law . It should be obvious , Parliament is elected by the people , the Government is not elected by the people , and elected positions should always trump unelected positions . Democracy in Britain just became a tad more advanced today . There are also laws that apply only to the monarch which restrict their ability to perform actions such as turning up in the commons without an invite . Everyone else can just walk into the visitors gallery ( the queue can be long , booking tickets is very much advised ) . it says the Supreme Court has authority over Parliament No , the courts have no power over what hapens in Parliament . What they ruled on was the constitutionality of parliament being shuttered by the government , so what they have actually demonstrated is that Parliament is supreme over the governement - in other words , 650 or so MPs have collective authority over the nominal head of the house , which is exactly how it should be in a representative democracy , otherwise what you have is an autocracy ( elected or otherwise ) . If I remember the discussions correctly then this could actually cause major issues in the future specifically because it says the Supreme Court has authority over Parliament . This goes against the supposed seperation of powers which is presumed in how things ' work ' in the UK . The Supreme Court sentenced that Parliament holds the Executive to account , but as Parliament could not carry out its duties then it fell to the Judiciary to hold the Executive to account . it says the Supreme Court has authority over Parliament Not quite . As I read the ruling , the justices are very careful to stress the opposite , that the PM 's advice to Her Madge removed parliamentary sovereignty and that it is for the parliamentary authorities to sort out now they have been restored in their prerogatives . All the SC did was reset the clock to before the Scruffy Scarecrow went beyond the pale and triggered a load of pomp , circumstance and archaic nonsense on a hollow pretence . The ruling , in effect , has said " parliament had been castrated for no good reason ; we 've sewn its nuts back on but it 's up to parliament to make sure they stay on from this point forward as we have no authority save upholding convention and the law . " This comment appears to make the very common mistake of conflating Parliament with The Government , which is composed of its members is is not directly elected . Even Iain Duncan Smith has done this , and as a former opposition leader he really ought to know better . Parliament is sovereign , and this ruling is a vindication of that . The government must not frustrate the sovereignty of Parliament and its accountability to it . The prerogative power is a residual power of the monarch that enables the government of the day to get on with its usual business without having to ask for Parliamentary approval for every single thing . In this case the government attempted to impose itself on Parliament by shutting it down . If I remember the discussions correctly then this could actually cause major issues in the future specifically because it says the Supreme Court has authority over Parliament . This goes against the supposed seperation of powers which is presumed in how things ' work ' in the U This is absolutely NOT what happened . The judgement is that the government can not suspend parliment to prevent it taking actions the government dislikes or finds inconvenient . The outcome reinforces the power and authority of parliment rather than undermining it anyway whatsoever . You might believe that , but it does n't make it correct . All the hysterical shrieking about ' delivering brexit ' is from people who are well aware that it was a marginal and irrational result that would be ditched if sanity were allowed to prevail . |
